9/25 155.6 well well well, look who decided to show lol. So apparently my mind can't adjust fast enough to my new weight (especially because I thinks it's the fastest I have ever lost) so being apart of a few groups I accidently weighed in last weekend at 166.6 instead of 156.6 😣😣 oops. Well you are all witnesses to the proof I have of my actual weight lol. But even still, every morning I still have to check 3 or 4 times because I can't believe it. Hopefully the next 10 pounds won't be as unbelievable.
9/26 154.4 whoooooooooosh!! Why, no clue. I did work out hard yesterday but still... wow. Today I have been having some anxiety. I have worked out hard and have been eating normally. I don't starve and I don't deny myself (unless it's super junk food, then that's all will power) I know mentally I have been doing everything right and my quick weight loss is all activity and portion control....but I'm starting to feel scared. I'm scared that it will be so easy to gain it all back if I jump the wagon again..I'm scared of having to do this again for 10000 time if i slack. I am looking forward to improve and not be re set into my old ways but who knows what the future holds. The only reassurance I have is not all my rounds have been perfect and weeks like last week have happened ( I was so hungry all week and pretty much had the worst eating week since I have started) but my gains haven't been too large and I still end it with losses. I am assuming as long as I never binge again I will be fine...but I don't know.
9/27 154.4 holding steady. I had munchies last night but settled for 2 pieces of dark chocolate. Worked out well but didn't do as much as I wanted. Drank 1.2 liters of water. I am feeling bloated though, 2 days away from TOM. Today I went to the hospital with my aunt, she has some inflammation in her leg and we just wanted to check it out, just in case (she is a cancer survivor so anything becomes worrisome) and to thank me for coming out she took me to a pub where we ordered chicken schnitzel and frites..it was delicious but I know it will negatively reflect on my weight tomorrow morning. Oops😞😞
9/28 154 wow. Didn't expect this. I guess I didn't do as much damage as I thought. TOM is due tomorrow and I usually expect a gain but this time hasn't seemed too bad which is kind of weird. Well see what happens tomorrow

Round 54 (My 8th Round)
9/25 156 I did great on all my macros until the late night craving hit me. I was a couple hundred calories under after dinner so it just ended up balancing out after I ate what I was craving. Just wish it didn't hit me so late. On a brighter note, loved the fall like weather yesterday morning! It was beautiful out. Can't wait until it stays like that for a while, and the trees start turning. The park I go to to walk is so beautiful, especially when the leaves start turning 😊.
9/26 155 yayy I am so excited. 10 pounds away from a normal BMI. I am beyond proud of myself. Yesterday was also a light day so I know that's contributed to part of this loss but I'm still taking credit for all the hard work.
9/27 155 soo happy that the scales were correct yesterday. I was speaking to someone yesterday who was complimenting me and asking how much weight I had lost, and my Husband overheard me tell them I still wanted to lose more. He doesn't want me to lose any more lol but I told him that I loved him, but I am doing this for me and I want to be happy with my body, and healthy.
That is really what matters in this whole thing, do this for "you". Being an inspiration to my family is a plus also, because I want them healthy as well.
9/28 155 Ate junk half the day yesterday so my macros were high. Stayed under my goal but I did use some exercise calories. I decided I'm going to walk at least 2 miles/day a few times a week, on top of my daily exercises. Would like to work my way up to jogging/running but it's hard to do right now because I always have my 5 month old with me. Maybe Santa will bring me an Elliptical for Christmas this year 😊.

9/25--217.1 I First time in over a week I've gotten back to my normal water drinking levels.
9/26--216.4 Back to my pre-trip weight and trend weight. Tonight is yoga, I haven't gone in 2 weeks, I so need it. I've been thinking about getting back into weightlifting, since I have stopped going to my kettlebell club. I recently moved and the club changed it's class schedule, so it's just not convenient anymore. I'm going to get a 3 day pass from a nearby gym and try it out and see if I like it, if not there are a couple of other gyms that I can try out. I'm not a big gym person, but I do want to lift weights again and this gym also has an indoor pool which is nice too.
9/27--216.0 Did some snacking last night even though I wasn't hungry. It was definitely stress related. I knew what I was doing while I was snacking, but it was almost as if I couldn't stop myself. It was weird...almost like an out of body experience. Luckily I had eaten pretty well during the day such that the extra snacking only put me over my daily calories by less than 500. Positives for yesterday was that at least I recognized what I was doing and I curtailed the amount of damage done. Today is a new day.
9/28--216.2 Still with a downward trend. Going to try out the gym today with the free pass.

Finally got around to using the SBMI calculator. Interesting results... Below is bullet points of results:
BMI = 23
Health aspects
Your weight is at the level that, in our view, should be optimal for health. By classification of the WHO, you are “normal weight".
SBMI = 34/70
This assessment is based on the newly developed Smart Body Mass Index. Its ideal range is between 30/70 and 39/70.
Your Smart Body Mass Index (SBMI) is calculated as 34/70 or "34 points out of 70".
Weight management?
This is no issue for you, luckily. But you may want to consider some suggestions that are well-advised, not only for weight reasons.
Your target weight of 120 pounds
You are already in your optimal weight range. Losing weight would add no benefit to your health.
Your current reduction diet
Your weight is below average: Do you really need this diet?
As with all calculating tools there is a margin of error. In this case I feel height, weight, and age are not enough body specific data for realistic results. The addition of body measurements would generate a more accurate picture. Attached is the calculator I've used for several years.

9/28 222.6 Yay! I'm glad it's catching up to my efforts. Today, I'm taking my daughter to the fair and we'll be walking around for a few hours. We'll probably also indulge in some fair food, but my birthday is this weekend so I'm not gonna sweat it.

9/25: 132.4, date last night. Grilled chicken, fingerling potatoes with red bell pepper and sweet onion, and wilted spinach. The rose was delicious.
9/26: 131.8, ran myself leaner at work yesterday. Crazy, busy, non-stop.
9/27: 131.8, beer after work at the pub. Good food day with a LNS of grapes.
9/28: 133.8, excellent example of fluid retention after consuming too much sodium and sugar. Fat loss or gain is a trend which is measured over time. Daily weight changes are the result of fluid retention and release.9 -

09/25: 249.4 - I'm not sleeping well lately. I think it's nerves from looking for a job after being a stay at home mom for so long. I woke up groggy and sore today. I have an interview tomorrow with a staffing agency and I hope it goes well. Also, I had a chicken fajita salad last night and it was delicious. I'm going to have that more often.
09/26: 249.8 - Strength training water retention. Not worried about the slight gain at all. I had an interview this morning and they want a second interview this afternoon. I hope this is a good sign! Hopefully I will be returning to the workforce by Monday! Thanks you guys for wishing me luck!
09/27: 250.6 - Wretched scale! Lol I ate really late last night and unexpected guests nicely brought subs for everyone. I was good though and only had a 6 inch. Unfortunately, it was smothered in mayo. I tried static stretching yesterday and it felt great but I'm a little sore today. I think I'm going to go light on food today and drink lots of water. I have my final weigh-in for the September Fat2Fit challenge and hopefully the scale drops a bit before then.

9/25- 188.9- was a little disappointed this didn't go down since yesterday but I'm really motivated to see the numbers go down tomorrow! Will make sure to plan and eat under calories today!
9/26- 190.1-
I had rice last night. And I tend to go up on the scale any time I have rice. Will try to avoid and this better go down tomorrow. Tonight I have everything planned. Definitely not going to go back to the 190s. Hell no.
9/27- 188.3- Thank god. Did really well yesterday. Even had a slice of pizza but still under calories. Going to try to eat healthier tonight and still be under my calories. So far so good. Really want to reach my goal for this challenge. Also I'm going to the gym today after my vacation so that's good. I'm excited. I'm seeing my friends tomorrow to watch a movie but we all said we want to eat healthy so hopefully that works out.
9/28- 188.2- Wanted this to go down more since I was under my calories yesterday but I'm happy it didn't go up or something. Going in the right direction. Mini victory: Yesterday my mom made rice with kofta and I love rice but I decided to make some broccoli (which I also love) so I filled my plate with mostly broccoli and just a couple spoons of rice as well as kofta. And I stopped eating once I felt full which happened fast since the broccoli is satiating for me. That definitely helped me not fluctuate up this morning. Also I worked out yesterday. Strength training and cardio but I got tired faster than I did before vacation so have to build up to not being like that again. Crazy how quickly we can become unfit! Plans got cancelled today with friends so I'm planning on eating healthy today again! And want to be under calories so I see the scale budge more than it did today.

9/25 -- 177 --Pretty good day yesterday. Met calorie and exercise goals, but succumbed to the peach coffee cake my husband made over the weekend and ate a whole piece instead of just a bite.
9/26 -- 177 --Again ok on the exercise and calorie front. But the carbs lost to a really nice milk stout....
9/27 -- 177.5 -- And again. Hit the exercise, missed by a little on the calories. Big fancy meal out with my husband and had a small dessert. Over on carbs again. But the next 7 days I should be out of excuses...and my fitbit is up and running again
9/28 -- 176.5 -- YAY! Walk, water aerobics and zumba yesterday. Ate back some exercise calories and only a little high on net carbs.

9/25 - 256.2 - Jumping off the Keto wagon & back to a whole foods approach which worked better for me. Gotta start the exercise back up in a week when the broken toe heals completely. Happy to have broken any sugar addiction long ago. I can do this!!
9/26 - 256.4 - Well, that's not too bad a jump up. I knew going off Keto I'd gain a bit of water weight. Trying to switch gears without a plan doesn't work. Menu planning is what my morning has been all about!
9/27 - 255.4 - Yes! Every # counts when it's headed in the right direction. Slept all night long without waking midway, which I haven't done in a long time.
9/28 - 255.6 - Well, that's the wrong direction...but only by a wee bit. Water weight maybe?

9/28, 221, I'm really not sure how I'm losing weight. I average 1500 calories a day and almost always go over my calorie goal. I have switched to healthier calories though. Frozen grapes and dark chocolate are my main desserts. I'm using half the amount of dressing that I usually use on salads. I've been having salads for lunch. I also try to walk a mile while at work. I'm also saving money now that I'm eating out less. It doesn't seem like much so I'm surprised at the difference it's made. Losing weight is usually so much harder than this, it doesn't feel real at all. At this rate I might reach onederland by January!!! That would be so amazing, just gotta keep working at it.

Ultimate Goal 190
9/25 -276 lbs (No Change) These night time munchies are killing me. I do well all day then kill it after dinner. Its a real tough time. I have to get out of this mindset. Will work on other options to keep my munch monster at bay.
9/26 – (No Scale) Out of town for a few days. Staying on track yesterday and so far today all is well. Business trips make it difficult sometimes to stay with a routine. Determined to stay with this.
9/27 )(No Scale) Still holding to the program. Subway salads have become a staple for dinner lately. Easy to find one anywhere out of town. Switched from munching on peanuts when hungry to grapes. Don't know how that's going to work out. Guess I'll see in a few days.
9/28 (No Scale) Repeat of yesterday. Finally got home this morning but too late to weigh in so tomorrow morning I will see if any drop has occurred. Sure hope so because its getting difficult to keep this up. It should not be this way. Not being very active I am sure does not help anything. Ok no more negativity! I can see a difference in waist size by taking in a notch on the belt. Thats a good thing.

I’m 59, female, mostly plant based, and lover of outdoors. This is my fourth round; the first one really kept me accountable, the second one was an eye-opener and the third one was really hard. What I have learned: 1) my foods and the amounts really matter; 2) My tracking needs to be accurate and if I eat it, it needs to be tracked; 3) Don’t let a slip turn into an all-out landslide! This round’s goals: no eating after supper (and eat at the table, not in front of the TV), no trigger foods, get back up when I fall, develop a “fall” work-out plan (by 10/1/18), and to stay up-to-date with my Bible study. Honor God with my food choices!

9/25 - removed due to technical issue with scales
9/26 - 83.0kg, successfully fasted for 16.5hrs! I think this weigh in is on the lower end of my fluctuations where yesterday was on the upper end. It’s motivating regardless
9/27 - 82.5kg, just over 3hours left of my second 16hr fast! I’ve been weighing myself at different times of the day so getting a lot of variation. It’s great to see the scale to go down but I’m not holding onto these lower numbers just yet. The past two days I’ve weighed myself after eating, but today was before eating, so perhaps the first weigh-in was over?
9/28 - 82.8kg, weighed first thing this morning. I have just over 4hrs left of my fast, really loving IF! I have my period so I imagine some bloating is factoring in, but not too concerned, it’s a slow process and I trust it
9/29 - 82.6kg, I broke my fast two hours early yesterday and ate food that was really hard to track
but that ended up being all I ate yesterday so I still think I would have been under 1200cals. I am 100% sure my first weigh in was inaccurately high, after I’ve discovered a technical issue with my scales. So I’m going to remove that first one and just go off 9/26

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/25 178/Happy to join this group! I lost weight, using a different MFP account, 7 years ago, but I gained it back. Hope I’ve learned my lesson! Wish I’d weighed first thing this morning. 😊
9/26 176.2 (when I woke up), 176.6 (after my walk?) I’m in my first week honeymoon period.
9/27 175.6 I’ll enjoy the rapid decline while it lasts. I know that will soon change.
9/28 174.4 (when I woke up), 174.2 (after my walk) I spent too much time looking at low carb recipes and missed lunch, but it was worth it. I think I’m going to like the new recipes. Now, I don’t want to spoil my appetite for fish tacos this evening.

Hi! I’m 5’3” and currently 187. I’m trying keto and low calorie and would like to drop at least 10 by Oct 13th.
Round 51...My Round 1
9/27 weight: 187, I did well today on my calories (under 1000) and my carbs (under 30) it was mostly due to a high stress day but I’ll take it over any late-night bingeing!
9/28 I didn’t weigh myself this morning and I know if I do it late I’ll be heavier
will weigh in tomorrow. I’m logging a little early because I’m going to be busy tonight. I’ve had a good few days so far sticking to my plan. Tonight I’m going to an Octoberfest so I am gearing up for some beer-peer pressure! Wish me luck! 7 -
LOL, @quiltingjaine, No, I hope that you didn't think I was inferring that YOU were desparate. I meant that I wasn't desperate enough to CONVERT my dessert recipes. I have plenty of people that are probably hoping that I do get desperate for something sweet. That's the LAST thing on my mind. I sometimes don't want to eat food! ANYHOO, your cheesecake looks delicious! 😋6

9/25 - 140. Yay! I've been waiting for this number for a few days. Happy to see it and trying not to celebrate it with a whole box of cheesy crackers!
9/26 - 140. Happy to see this number stick around. There was a bottle of champagne in my fridge purchased a few weeks ago ready for hitting 140. I enjoyed a glass last night, but didn't feel obligated to finish the bottle. I'm very hopeful that I'll see the 130s this round and so glad for this challenge that has helped me make it this far.
9/27 - 141. Whoops, wrong way. I went through a whole series of emotions in the past 4 hours based on that one little number. My immediate response was a really childish and grumpy "oh well, who cares, I'm going to go eat a snack, this scale isn't the boss of me." As the morning passed (so very much not a morning person, things always get better as the day wears on), I've decided that this number was exactly what I needed to see today. I've been getting sloppy and indulgent in the past few days. I'm lucky to have a body that almost always immediately shows small losses and gains based on my recent behavior and quickly shows me when I need to get my act together. So thanks, body, for the feedback, I'm going to follow my plan with more precision.
9/28 - 141. Well, now that 141 came back for a few days, I can look forward to the excitement of hitting 140 all over again.
