    @tiabirdie56 I LOVE the speech you gave your body! But LOL at the expired pretzels. I pretty much ignore those dates. Just gave a friend a box of “jumbo shell” pasta that “expired” 4 years ago. She said there was nothing wrong with them. How does dry pasta go bad - unless it gets buggy?

    @FarmerCarla I love movie theater popcorn — well, all popcorn but haven’t had it in ages because I’m afraid I’ll lose control!

    @puddlegoober JOE! WHERE ARE YOU? Don’t make me come after you!!! Join us in Round 58 —

    I will definitely take it!

    No more upwards fluctuations due to bad eating. I want a steady decline this time. I can't just dance around this number. I did that ten pounds ago and I hated it.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    10/25- 184.7- Glad it didn't go up honestly. I did maintenance calories yesterday.

    10/26-184.8- Last exam today. Going to be able to focus on weight-loss better these next two weeks. Kinda excited. :)
    10/27- 184.7
    10/28- No weigh in.

    10/29- 183.7- Let's keep this going. Have been here before. I want to see 182.something. Happy about this though. But I just definitely need to make myself keep going.

    10/30- 184.0- I did well yesterday. The thing is I didn't have time this morning and ate breakfast before remembering to weigh myself so this isn't necessarily accurate. Will eat well tonight too so that I get results tomorrow. Really on my grind this time. Going to get to 180 soon. Determined.

    10/31- 183.0- Happy Halloween everyone! First time seeing this number. Really want to see 182.something. Maybe tomorrow? I'm going to eat low sodium and nothing heavy so I don't randomly pack on water weight.

    11/1- 183.0- had a bit of candy today lol. hopefully it doesn't affect anything tomorrow?

    11/2- 182.0- really happy about this. Ony limiting myself to one piece of candy maximum. Not going to get to 180 by tomorrow obviously but I will soon. Certainly by the end of the next challenge I think. I'm very excited!! Not going to ruin the progress. Going to push until I get there. It feels so close yet so far lol.

    11/3- 182.4

    This is my fourth round. I think the best part of this challenge is that in recording the weight every day with a comment, I talk myself down from the hype that comes with weighing myself every day. Sometimes, anyway. I have to say I still got frustrated with just 0.5 loss last challenge in 10 days. But still, noting that I lost 4 lbs last challenge, I did sort of maintain perspective! Slow and steady wins the race! We can do this!!

    OSW 199 (June 15 2018)
    Pre-challenge start weight 177
    R54 SW 177 EW 175 (-2.0)
    R55 SW 175 EW 171 (-4.0)
    R56 SW 171 EW 170.5 (-0.5)

    CW 170.5
    RGW 168

    Goals--
    Carbs < 40-
    Steps/day > 12000
    Exercise/walk 6 of 7 days/week

    Day/Weight/Comment

    10/25 171.5 -- This is so frustrating. Yesterday walked for an hour, hour strength class at YMCA, hour of zumba. Finished day with 1000+ calorie deficit. Weighed in a pound heavier. Everyday I'm hoping for the big whoosh....and instead it's up 1 or 2 lbs and then down 1/2. Oh well. I feel good. I'm not starving. My pants fit.

    10/26 168.5 -- I think this might be the real whoosh....although yesterday a couple hours after eating bacon and fathead pizza for lunch I got queasy and just couldn't fathom dinner, so was well under calories. 15000 steps yesterday including a walk and zumba. Also did water aerobics. Hoping this number sticks.

    10/27 168 -- So excited to be in a new decade that I forgot to post it yesterday! Queasiness was gone yesterday. Hour walk and water aerobics. Went out to Chinese restaurant for late lunch. Skipped the rice and had spicy chicken and veggie stir fry and pea greens. Then...just cheese sticks and peanuts for dinner because I went with my son (who plays in band) to the football game.

    10/28 168.5 -- I'm pleased with this. Got up yesterday, went to zumba, did a moderately fast walk for an hour to collect extra calories. Big egg scramble for lunch and then went to a costume cocktail party with my husband and stuck to the pulled pork & chicken, no bun, and brie and assorted dips on veggies. My husband and I then shared 3 mini cupcake sized desserts. Enjoyed two glasses of red wine. Seems like my choices worked ok!

    10/29 168 -- :) Ate within calories, including guestimate of snacks at Costco. Took a long walk. 12000+ steps.
    10/30 169 -- Here we go again. Assuming it's going to bounce up and down before dropping again. Took a hike instead of zumba and a walk. Only burned 250 calories and then went out to lunch. Had to make up for it with the elliptical later. Ended the day with 500 calories surplus, beyond MFP allotment.

    10/31 168.5 50 minute walk before the dentist. 500 calorie surplus. 12,000 steps. Trying not to get too excited, as I'm probably going to bounce around!

    11/1 168.5 Power walk, strength class and zumba. 21000 steps. I had a huge calorie deficit, (even after two glasses of wine and 1 1/2 funsize chocolates). Glad this number is sticking. It may go down. I felt low on salt yesterday and had broth after 9....which probably did not help the weigh-in!

    11/2 167.5 Zumba and yoga. Big deficit. Might have had a second bowl of soup if my son hadn't tripped and dropped it all on the floor!

    11/3 169.5 Clearly 10 tortilla chips last night ruined everything! LOL. Probably didn't drink quite enough water. Had a big deficit....so this number won't stick. It will just make next round easier.

    Round result: -1.0 lbs
