Day/Weight/Comment
9/15 - 153 - Holding steady, sigh...It may go up tomorrow after the salt I had for dinner tonight.
9/16 - 153 - At least it didn't go up.
9/17 - 153.5 - There's the salt, or the fact that I keep moving my scale due to our bathroom remodel. I double checked my gross calories consumed for the past week and I haven't gone over 1400 calories, in fact I'm usually at 1100 to 1200 a day. I'll just keep riding this out.
9/18 - 152.5 - I'm glad to see this number today. I'm hoping this is the highest number I see for the rest of the week.

Day/Weight/Comment

9/15 -- missed, but I'm going to guess it was 126.4.... (I have STALLED OUT at this weight! Hello, scale? Are you still working?? sigh....)

9/16 -- OK -- weighed in this morning and BIG SURPRISE! 126.4.... But I'm only being facetious in my disdain -- I am very happy and THANKFUL to be back in the 120's again (I spent most of the summer in the 130's...) SO...let the losing begin again! I hope to get to 124 by the end of these 10 days.... I'll even take 124.9! Good Sunday everyone!

9/17 -- 126.7 (Yep -- it went up, but it will come down.... at least the scale works!)

9/18 -- 125.9! I'm doing the happy dance again -- ate early last night and went on 10 mile bike ride -- maybe that has something to do with it! lol! (Of course, afterwards, there was Cabernet!)

9/15 No Scale

9/17 No Scale
9/18 -279lbs (+9 lbs) Returned from four days camping so no scale to weigh and of course went off track and gained on carb overload. Not too concerned as I know 90% of this is water weight gain and I still expect to reach my goal this round of 2 lbs loss. Fasting today.

This round I begin a dietitian-designed 6-8 week anti-inflammation elimination diet (a bit tighter than what I've been doing the past month) with hopes of getting past these aches & pains without taking drugs. I'm feeling hopeful!

Goals:
Food ~~ Follow anti-inflammation elimination diet - learn new food tricks!
Exercise ~~ rebuild to 60-90 minutes/day of walking/swimming; restart weight training & yoga when joint pain subsides.
Weight ~~ [Edit 9/16] == 2018: maintain at 140 (or slightly lower)

I'm hoping to get a nice long walk in this morning, and some gardening this afternoon. Have a great weekend, all!

09/16 - 140
Yeah, baby! Now to stay here (or a little lower)! I intend to slowly add calories to maintenance level - slowly to figure out what that actually is. Wow - I've been on the loser track for so long (3.75 years) that arriving doesn't feel real!

09/17 - 139.8
I don't feel particularly deprived so far on this elimination diet, but I do struggle to get enough calories (never thought I'd say that 3 years ago!!!!). I need to work on that - running much too low. But all the veggies really fill me up!

09/18 - 140
So far, so good. I'm still finding it a challenge to get enough calories on this elimination diet, but I need to make an effort to increase slowly. Too low is too low. Otherwise, it's fine, and nice to be at goal. This has been a 3.75-year journey, so keep the faith!!!

9/15--157.8 staying steady at this weight. This is definitely a lot later than I usually post but I did weigh myself this morning just wasn't able to post till now (even if in a short amount of time I will have to re weigh in) good day yesterday. 90 min of work out, ate fairly well and got 1.6 liters of water in. Here is to a great start!!!

9/16-- 157 once again late post but once again I weighed in this morning. Was super excited to see this but I know it's only for the day. Yesterday I worked out like crazy but unfortunately didn't eat or sleep much, (about 4 hours) only having a little over a liter of water. Today I ate well but it was my last day house/dog sitting and when my friends came home they took us out for pizza. I haven't had pizza for a long time and apparently I was super hungry because I ate 3 slices 😣😣😣 I have never ate so much in my life, so this will definitely show on the scale in the morning. I haven't sabotaged myself in a while....but here we are again.

9/17-- 158.6 and here it is... that dreaded pizza. It's ok though, I am being patient, i know I can take it off and keep it off. It's a new day!!!

9/18 158.6 although I was a little upset by this I have managed to think up a couple of reasons why I am still here. 1. I haven't been getting enough sleep the past couple of days. 2. I need to up my hydration. 3. Breakfast, always seem to do better the days I eat early. 4. Sodium was a little high yesterday and 5. That dreaded pizza still has a hold. I exercised yesterday (a 10 mile bike ride and workout with my mom) even though it was supposed to be my rest day i am secretly happy about the bike ride. I have a stationary bike but I forgot how amazing it is to ride the real thing, might make it a thing before winter hits. Drank 1 liter of water and stayed under my calories..but like I said it was a higher sodium day then usual. Back at it again today!!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/15 (Out of town - no scale) Just got back home and did step on the scale (145.3) - super late time of day for me to weigh-in and had had things to eat/drink before so not too bad of an uptick after factoring those things in. My end weight for Round 52 was not really an accurate number since it was caused by a stomach bug. Looking forward to weighing in tomorrow and having a more "real" number to see where I am on the scale. My daughter and I had a great time together at the concert last night. So glad I was able to feel better in time for that!

9/16 = 143.5 Back weighing in a normal time, down .2 from Friday morning's weigh-in. Today will be super busy, we're having people over tonight, so lots to do. Planing on OMAD today to not go over calories with the dinner party food/drinks.

9/17 = 143.3 (down .2 from yesterday) So nice to be able to lose weight after a night off from logging my food. I enjoyed dinner last night, it was delicious but also super healthy & vegetarian. There were likely too many adult beverages though, need a lot of water today to re-hydrate. I completed the day 56 of 90 exercises yesterday, so today is the start of week 9 of my workout plan. After finishing this week's workouts, I'll be in the final month of the plan, Yay!

9/18 = 144.6 (up 1.3 from yesterday) Just another day with weird scale fluctuations Although more likely the delayed results from Sunday's dinner party. No worries here, it will come down within a day or 2. I moved my rest day to yesterday as my legs were feeling super tired from the weekend's workouts but so ready to get back to sweating a good workout today. In really good news, my treadmill has been stuck on the highest incline (basically unusable) for the past several months, which has not been too big of an issue because I really only love running outside and only use the treadmill when I have no other choice. We tried to fix it before by re-calibrating it without any luck but yesterday my husband found a reset switch on the underneath and it worked! Happy to have this back in business, I'll still keep my runs outside but it's nice to be able to do harder interval training on the treadmill and to get in some walks as well. Have a great day everyone!

I’m 59, female, mostly plant based, and lover of outdoors. This is my third round; the first one really kept me accountable, the second one was an eye-opener. What I have learned is that my foods and the amounts really do matter. My tracking needs to be accurate and if I eat it, it needs to be tracked. This round’s goals: no eating after supper, no trigger foods and to stay up-to-date with my Bible study. Honor God with my food choices!

9/15/18 / 126 / my late night binge eating has to stop.
9/16/18 / 121.4 / stayed on the plan and even accommodated a night out! I am determined to do this.
9/17/18 / 120.4 / biked yesterday afternoon. It’s warm here, so much so that I (one who actually likes hot weather!) wish it would cool down to a “normal” September temp! It’s supposed to be warmer today, so my planned bike ride may turn into something else!
9/18/18 / 119.2 / Biked & water aerobics. Love being in the water after a workout! I think my starting weight may have been water… it makes no sense, but I’ll take it! Apparently eating on plan and not eating after supper make a HUGE difference!

9/15--179.8 I guess Disneyland caught up to me! I'm in the process of getting back on track and breaking the carb cycle. Once I start eating a lot of carbs like I did while traveling, I end up eating more and more, and my calories go higher and higher.

@tiabirdie56 Tish, you could be right about the electrolytes. I didn’t take any potassium or magnesium for at least 4 days after we got home - about the time I came down with this cold not that I think they have anything to do with the cold, just that I didn’t feel well and didn’t get them out. I did restart them on Friday. I also got more Powerade Zero.

I am a 50 year old 5'4" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.

I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. On the other hand when I look at the big picture and the averages it has been a consistent loss except for one round.

9/15 - 183.0 - I need to get back on track!
9/16 - 185.8 - late night, adult beverages, Olive Garden and a surprise birthday party. I’ll take it because I enjoyed every second of it!
9/17 - 182.3 Not too bad. I was expecting a higher number this morning.
9/18 - 186.0 - Three days of carbs and high sodium. I know this is temporary

Round 53 (My 7th round)
9/15 157.5 Today is my 60th day on MFP. I am so happy that I took this step to a healthier me, and haven't given up even though I am still fairly new. I now weigh less than my husband. (He is only a couple of inches taller than me). I know weight is only a number, and us women have the "goodies" men don't lol but it was a constant bother to me. I'm not even sure why because he's not a big guy at all. He's always loved me the way I am, but I never dared tell him my weight before. Anyways, hope its a wonderful round for you all ❤
9/16 157.5 I need to get my sweet tooth back under control. Made cookies and told myself I was just gonna have 1. That did not happen so I just used cookies as my dinner lol.
9/17 157 the scale was bouncing between 155 and 157, I'll go with 157 for now because I didn't make the best food choices yesterday. Happy to see a loss though! Goal for today is to resist mall sweets and foods, my sis in law and I are having a girls day. I know we will be going out for lunch too.
9/18 157 happy to see this number again . Still not making the best food choices but staying in calorie range. Today already started off bad, my Grandma bought me
Mcdonalds.

9/15 — 134.2 — I had a feeling this would happen once I got some sleep! Happy weekend everyone 😊

9/16 — 133.8— Super busy day yesterday, so I had a late dinner.. wasn’t expecting a loss, but I’ll take it of course. Going out to eat later so I can watch the patriots game and my hunny can watch his 49ers game.. will practice self discipline and pick out something healthy(ish) to eat! 🏈🏈🏈

9/17 — 134.6 — Umm.. yikes! I thought I did really good when I went out to eat yesterday, staying under calories and I drank SO much water.. this is possibly salt, I hope! We’ll see.. 🤞🏼

9/18 — 133.2 — Well that’s a relief! Darn salt givin’ me a heart attack 😝 It’s my day off today, but have a test tomorrow so will be studying all day. Oh yeah and I lost my fantasy football game last night.. 😢 oh well~

Day/Weight/Comment
9/15 149.6 Went for a morning walk then planted myself on the couch. Feeling better but still a little low energy and scratchy throat. Feeling pretty good with my body, starting to read the maintenance boards and the concensus seems to be that maintenance is a series of small, 5 lb yoyo's to keep yourself in check. In my past, maintenance has been the hard part. As I am nearing my goal I am thinking more and more about how I want to live this second half of my life, and it's all about getting rid of the baggage I've carried, in my mind and on my bod. I don't know if I have another 50 years or 50 days or 50 hours, but I intend to take care of this body just in case!
9/16 151.6 Thankfully due to this challenge I know I didn't gain 2 lbs of fat overnight. I went to Mexican food yesterday and totally enjoyed my taco, rice, beans and some chips. Though the quantity was small, this was the real authentic stuff, cooked with manteca and oh so worth it! I expect this to disappear within the next 2 days. Super hydration and low carb is the plan today, as well as a hilly walk with my pups. I increased my daily calories from 1200 to 1400 and my goal is to STAY within this window for the rest of this challenge. Have a great Sunday everyone!
9/17 WEIGH IN DAY 149.8 Got rid of most of the bloat thanks to lemon/cucumber water! Yesterday was pretty uneventful, didn't end up going on a walk, instead chilled and did stuff around the house. Hard to do sometimes but I am learning. I have been a go go go person for so much of my life, and now have reached a place where I don't have to work, but I can if I want. Having to learn to be ok not being busybusy is sometimes difficult. The pup helps, as well as my 16yo son who still needs my presence. Today walking the hill with DH and pups, this hill used to be partially in the "red zone" heart rate for me, but now sticks in fat burning, though I am not charging it as much on the uphill so as not to leave hubby in the dust, but still a success. I am waiting for him to catch up so we can do it twice instead of once and done.

9/18 149.6 Good day, morning walk, went to work for a couple of hours and felt accomplished. Made chicken wings and french bread pizza for dinner, a fun break from the usual protein/veggie/carb balanced meals that I make for the family. Logged my food and stayed in the green! Hubby is slowly but surely getting on board, which makes me so happy. He suggested we walk the dogs TWICE a day on the hill instead of once, or add the bike ride in as well. I am all for it since I had pulled back for him to catch up, and it feels so good to be active together!

Good Morning Everyone! My goals: finish the round .. at a lower number.

9/15 164.4 Besides getting trapped in that over eating mode at times ..I think sodium is my biggest foe.
9/16 164.2 Anything lower is good. Limited myself to 2 pieces of pizza. We will see?
9/17 164 It's lower. Thank you for the support .. this is a fabulous group of MFPers!!

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
