Day/weight/comment
11/04- didn't weigh
11/05- 211.2lb- Today has been easy enough, over 10,000 steps and kept within my calorie goal. Consistency is the key for me, must log in and be accountable tomorrow!
11/06- 210.8lb- feeling motivated today, iv got plenty of housework to be cracking on with and my meals are all planned out. 'Failing to plan is planning to fail', have a good day all X
11/07- 210.4lb- yesterday went very well, I logged everything, stuck to my calorie goal and did more steps than what I was aiming for. It's a low calorie day for me today, I'm going shopping for birthday presents for my little girls 5th birthday so hopefully that will keep me busy 🙂
11/08- 210.4lb- did over my 10,000 steps yesterday and stuck to my eating plan. Today I am aiming for 1400cals, I want it to be nutritious and filling though, no snacking and making sure I hit my protein goals.
11/09- 209.6lb- I hit all my targets for the day yesterday, a nice drop in weight to motivate me today. I'm feeling really on it at the moment.
11/10- 209.4lb- well I obviously jinxed myself, I did so well in the day yesterday, over 15,000 steps, loads of calories burned, and then I decided to have a glass of wine or two, then all self restraint went out the window. I was lucky to escape with any deficit at all. Feeling super hungry today now, I'm going to try having a low calorie day today, or that is the plan...
11/11- 209.6lb
11/12- 209.4lb- I have been absolutely rubbish at logging over the weekend. I have however redeemed myself slightly by having such a good day today, over 16,000steps and a low calorie day.

@jenn990205 -- Glad you and your husband had a blast! You've got the right attitude. That weight will come back off even if it takes a few days!
@abowersgirl -- You've got this. Just carry on. Nothing wrong with your feasting yesterday, just don't let it become a failure that spirals into crazy eating for the week!

This is my fifth round. I am starting not to freak out as much over the daily fluctuations. I ended last round high, which is why I have a larger goal this 10 days.

11/4 168.5 Got in 18000 steps yesterday and an extra 500 calorie deficit. This number is more like it.... I knew ending high last round would make this one easier!
11/5 167.5 18000 steps again.
11/6 168 Lots of steps, zumba & body weight exercises. Big deficit yesterday!
11/7 166 Walked, voted and then walked with friends. 17000 steps. So happy to see this number. I hope it sticks instead of bouncing up again!
11/8 165.5 So cool to have it move lower instead of the immediate bounce up! Was all ready to go out and walk this morning despite the threat of rain. And when it started raining as I drove my son to school I figured that was ok. But then when it started pouring and lightening, I decided maybe I should wait. I'm dressed and ready to go! Have a good day everyone!
11/9 165 Woohoo! Walk & elliptical yesterday.
11/10 165.5 --Weighed yesterday but forgot to check in. Friday did water aerobics and elliptical.
11/11 167.5 -- Went to football party yesterday. Stuck to the low carb options of cheese, olives, veggies, chili and a few walnuts....except for the graham cracker toffee, which I had several pieces of. Convinced I did not actually eat 7000 calories of toffee over maintenance. In fact, I was only a little over my calories, so I am hoping that this number will go back down! I did go for a walk and managed to get 12,000 steps. Was having bad cravings and bad mood--which I'm assuming was hormonal. I was glad I took the power walk, because I felt much better afterwards, and more in control when I went to the party. (I was not as good with water yesterday or today either).
11/12 166 -- Phew....Pumped water yesterday. Did the elliptical. Jogged an extra 5000 steps in front of the TV to increase my deficit. I'm clinging to this number for tomorrow!!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/04- Couldn't weigh in this morning because I was at grandmother's house! I did go to a wedding party yesterday but half of my plate was salad and I only had a little bit of rice. The rest was sabzi (cooked spinach) and protein. Pretty proud of controlling myself tbh. Nonetheless, rice does make me retain water so maybe weight went slightly up (but I don't feel guilty at all because I haven't had rice in a while so I'm proud of myself and being reasonable!). Had a light salad for lunch which was satiating, delicious, and calorie-appropriate so will be under calories today so hopefully that'll help undo any damage due to yesterday but we'll see. Won't beat myself up if not, but staying focused the next few days.
11/05- 183.5- There it is lol. Staying focused today. Maybe we can make this go down tomorrow.
11/06- 184.5- Had to rush this morning. I don't think this is accurate. We'll see tomorrow!
11/07- 183.0- That major fluctuation scared me. Happy that it's a bit better. Was not rushed this morning so I have a healthy lunch and everything. Got a lot of studying to do. I think this should go down tomorrow. I feel in control. Also did HIIT yesterday. It felt really good. It was easy and at home. Will try to do this every night.
11/08- No weigh in
11/09- 184.0- Ugh. I've been eating not as well this challenge. Just kind of doing maintenance. I'm going to stop this and begin to follow the exact meals that I did a while ago when I was losing weight.
11/10- No weigh in
11/11- 184.0- have been feeling really off this whole week since Wednesday. I was in a mindset that I haven't been in for a long time. The mindset of "Well, I already messed up. Today won't make a difference either" and I've been in that mindset my whole life. It's basically what got me to my high weight. I kept messing the day up early in the day. But I feel good today. I think I'm getting over it. I have been eating good all day so far and I haven't been doing that the past few days so I think I'm over it. And I feel so much better.
11/12- 183.0- Did well yesterday. Going to do even better today. Maybe I can at least reach where I started.

Round 58 - SW 175.6, EW - let’s see what good habits bring...HW: 213
LW: 148
CW: 175
UGW: 150-155
I was heaviest in late 90‘s/early 2000‘s, when I couldn‘t tie my shoes or walk around the little league field without losing my breath, it was time to change.
Lost 65 pounds over several years w/WW, SparkPeople, Beck Diet Solution (life changing!!!), MFP, Body for Life (and many more fitness books) and tracking diligently and working out. Became passionate about fitness and earned my trainer certification.
Fittest in 2009/2010/2011. Then a few years of curve balls: donated a kidney to my husband, had hip surgery, gained 10#, cared for my husband and lost him, moved half-way across the country with my job, job sucked (60-80-100 hour weeks), gained 20#, bought a house, found a new job last year, lost 10#.
Time to lose 10 or 20 more and have fun with fitness again... If you‘ve read this far, thanks for indulging my rambling...
Commitment for 10 days:
1 - track every day... I’ll log calories/macros here to keep me honest (gulp!)
2 - working out: No more pushing until after the virus — new goal: 30’ of something/anything every daytwo red and two amber sessions...
I use the HeartWatch app and it’s colors for level of intensity are:
....... warmup/health
....... fat burn
....... building fitness
....... high intensity workouts
...Doing dates upside down so I keep the end in sight...
Date ** Weight ** Nutrition ** Exercise
T 11/13 - what will i weigh if i track and workout consistently? how will i feel?!?!
M 11/12 172.8 ** 1934 (oops!) 47/21/32 ** walked the dog a couple times for a total of 45‘, still fighting a cold, time for a good night‘s sleep...
S 11/11 175.2
S 11/10 174.8 ** 1767 44/21/35 ** easy walk with the dog and heavy house cleaning.... Mostly in the warmup/health range, some in the fat burning range. But given that I‘m all stuffed up w/minimal energy, I‘ll take it :-). Without this challenge, I‘d have given up and laid on the couch. With this challenge, I‘m closing my apple activity rings every day, despite having a cold. And I‘m still tracking and I‘m eating better... I‘ll take it...
F 11/09 174.4 ** 1722 53/21/26 ** 30’ walk with the dog wow - thought i was taking it easy - the body truly does work harder when there‘s a virus in play too!! Also some light house cleaning and lots of couch time to rest... BONUS — I was still able to close all my apple-watch-fitness rings even being sick - woohoo!! I‘m still on track for closing them every day in November
T 11/08 176 ** 1741 50/22/28 ** rolling & stretching, walking the dog. Needed a good restorative workout after yesterday’s dorky class left me oddly sore. Gotta revise my warm up for next Wednesday’s class...
Revived an old habit — tracking my food before the day starts so I know I‘m on track... ended with better results for calories and macros - now we‘ll see what the scale says tomorrow...
W 11/07 175.6 ** 1856 48/20/32 core workout class
Glad to see the scale drop today - must have been sodium yesterday... New workout class this morning - sort of dorky but I’ll stick with it for 6 weeks - it will be good for me, lol... and it was a good workout after all :-)
T 11/06 177.0 ** 1599 46/23/31 ** power cleaned the house and walked the dog
UGH!! Up 1.6 this morning - yikes... good motivation to eat cleaner and stick to the calories and macros...
M 11/05 175.4 ** 2183 42/19/39 ** rehab and walked the dog
S 11/04 175.6 ** 1891 47/21/32 ** circuit training class :-)

11/04 - 78.2kg, still incredibly bloated from my wild Friday but at least the scales came down a bit from the huge jump. Ready to smash this round and have no more cheat days until Christmas!
11/05 - 77.3kg, finally dropping down to where I was before Friday!! I have set myself a goal for the week to meet my step goal every day (I slack off on my days off). I’m going from Sunday-Sunday, met my goal yesterday and very close for today with still many hours of the day left
11/06 - 77.4kg, met my step goal for yesterday! Ate well, drank plenty of water!
11/07 - 77.3kg, ate well yesterday but didn’t meet my step goal :’( I was in a really bad mood when I got home from work and didn’t want to do anything. On a positive note I didn’t binge like I wanted to, or would have previously. On track to meet my goal today!
11/08 - 77.0kg, slow and steady...
11/09 - 76.8kg, I can’t complain, the scales are going down! Not meeting my step goal every day like I wanted to, but it’s okay. It’s Friday and I am NOT going to go over my calories like I always do!!!!
11/10 - 76.8kg, happy to say I didn’t go over my calories yesterday, breaking the Friday pattern!
11/11 - 76.9kg, seem to be stagnating a little, despite eating under my goal every day. I’ve noticed I’m not eating nearly enough fibre at all, so I’ve made sure to worry about that today.
11/12 - 76.6kg, finally! The bran has helped I was holding onto a lot of waste I think.
11/13 - 76.4kg met my goal for the round!! Really pleased my weight finally dropped down. I’m not sure if I’ll be back for the next round. I’ve just started using Lose It! and I’m really loving the interface. But I’m considering keeping MFP just to keep up with these challenges. If I stop doing daily weigh-ins, I’ll be back!8 -
Looking forward to joining the next round!6

Other 1 day a week for an hour (biking/tennis/water aerobics or walking if nothing more fun is available)
Walk 45 miles in November (Nov 5th - 9.08 miles)
11/04 190.7 I walked a little over 2.5 miles yesterday. The weather was perfect for a walk but I was with girlfriend that wore the wrong shoes and couldn't really go any further. Love her and I am glad she's walking with me (she really needs to exercise and this is all she does is walk with me) but it did make me mad.
11/05 190.7 I got a late - slow walk in too late in the day. Forgetting about the time change, once again finished my walk in the dark. I have GOT to be more mindful of my surroundings. A couple of deer ran across the trail not 10 feet in front of me; scared the crap out of me. My nieces birthday celebration. She asked for chicken tortilla soup. Easily on the calories (I don't add the tortilla until the end so everyone can control their own) just a bunch of veggies, chicken breast, and seasonings. I might have had a loss if I had stayed to just one 2X2 gooey delicious brownie she wanted instead of cake.
11/06 190.4 Slight drop. Didn't exercise yesterday and normally I would go to the gym tonight, but I am traveling out of town for work and my BF is coming with me!!! I know he'll want to go to dinner etc. As long as I can stay in within my calorie goal I'll be fine. I will have no access to a scale until Friday morning.
11/07 No Scale I did end up going to the gym last night. I did a little more than an hour on the weight machines and drove 3.5 hours from KC to StL. I stayed within calories and sodium, which is all I can do these days. Tonight I should walk, we'll see what happens. Having the BF here is both good and bad. It's good because I get to spend time with him, it's bad because I don't want to work.
11/08 No Scale I did not do as well yesterday. I went over on calories, over on sodium, and did no exercise. That being said, I don't feel too bad physically or mentally. While I went over on calories they weren't "dirty", there was just too much of good stuff. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself when I finally get on a scale tomorrow but right now I'm ok. I just need to not do this again for awhile. Balance right?
11/09 188.7 Always good to see the scale go down. I suspect it will be back up slightly tomorrow but we'll see. Too cold and snowy to walk outside today. I'll be at the gym to get my 3 miles in tonight. I did walk a little yesterday but it was cold and snowing. I did find a couple of friends along the way, see below. The walk was actually very pleasant with the snow and the farm animals. There were cows on the other side of me, looking at me like I was crazy.
11/10 188.7 Walked at the gym Friday night. Decided to do the "Cardio" instead of just getting in my 3 miles. It was harder but the distance was short. I was under calories and stuff so All good.
11/11 189.6 I went a little crazy last night. I know that why I'm up today. I have my fingers crossed I will get back to 188 in the next two days. I'm posting late today because it's Sunday and we had a birthday party for the baby. I walked 4 miles today. I'm at 17.5 for the month so far. I am on track to do 45 for November. I spent a couple of hours cleaning house before folks got here today. I'm taking this week off and might do a little traveling. It will just mean I have more interesting places to walk .
11/12 189.0 Got a mile in today, but the snow kept me from doing much. I'm not sure if I will get back down to 188 tomorrow but it's still been a good round. I really enjoy this format.

@tiabirdie56 I am not sure what you are going through, but know that I am saying prayers for you and your family. Wishing you peace and a good resolution.
@quiltingjaine I love your new pic. You don't even look like the same person! So very slender now. You look fantastic and it inspires me on my keto journey. Thanks for that.2 -

I couldn't control myself about 3 weeks and easily I gained weight (about 2 kgs). I cannot help myself to eat deserts, fries, and alcohol. In 3 weeks probably I went to the gym just 3 times. Yesterday night I went again, I hope this will be a new begining. I was about 79 kg at the beginning of the summer now I'm going to 90 kg. I'm really upset. I'll fully participate in the next challenge I'll try to lose it.7 -

Result of Rounds 56+57 = - 3.6 kg (-7.9 lbs.).
SW: 66.2 kg (145.9 lbs.)
GW for Round 58: 63.7 kg (140.4 lbs.)
Day/Weight/Comment
11/04 - 65.1 kg (143.5 lbs.).
11/05 - 66.2 kg (145.9 lbs.). +2 kg over a weekend, logical result of 3000+kcal yesterday. Jillian Michaels in the morning. Plan for today: 3km walk during the lunch break and Jillian Michaels in the evening. Hope these 2 kg will disappear in a couple of days
11/06 - 65.2 kg (143.7 lbs.). -1 kg. 7km run in the morning. Planning to do “six-pack in 6 weeks” in the evening. Want to see my 64 kg again asap.
11/07 - 65.0 kg (143.3 lbs.).
11/08 - 64.6 kg (142.4 lbs.). Did “six-pack in 6 weeks” yesterday evening. 7km run in the morning.
11/09 - 64.2 kg (141.5 lbs.). Jillian Michaels in the morning + 10 min AB ATTACK with Shaun T.
11/10 - 63.7 kg (140.4 lbs.). SO HAPPY!!! I’ve never seen this figure on my scales. May be I was in this weight at the time we didn’t have scales at home. I have my menu for the weekend. And I will keep to it. I even squeezed in a couple of non-alcoholic beers (thanks’ God in Germany even non-alcoholic beer tastes) and a glass of wine for Sunday. And I am planning a big “freestyle” for today (a kind of intervals – walking + running) although the weather is not great. But it is only a matter of right clothes! LOOK FOLL! THINK BEFORE EATING SOMETHING THAT SEEING YOUR SCALES SLAP-HAPPY CANNOT BE COMPARED WITH A PIECE OF CAKE. This I wrote for myself in the first place. Svetlana be consistent!
11/11 - 63.2 kg (139.3 lbs.). It is too much… Did “six-pack in 6 weeks”. Will not go to the scales. Don’t want to see below 63. Now a breakfast. Thinking to go to thermae, but not yet sure
11/12 - 63.0 kg (138.9 lbs.). Jillian Michaels in the morning
11/13 - 63.5 kg (139.9 lbs.). + 0.5kg. Nothing to worry about. Definitely not because of eating. Had a wonderful 7km run under the rain
RESULT OF ROUND 58: minus 1.6 kg (- 3.6 lbs.)

Day/weight/comment
11/04- didn't weigh
11/05- 211.2lb- Today has been easy enough, over 10,000 steps and kept within my calorie goal. Consistency is the key for me, must log in and be accountable tomorrow!
11/06- 210.8lb- feeling motivated today, iv got plenty of housework to be cracking on with and my meals are all planned out. 'Failing to plan is planning to fail', have a good day all X
11/07- 210.4lb- yesterday went very well, I logged everything, stuck to my calorie goal and did more steps than what I was aiming for. It's a low calorie day for me today, I'm going shopping for birthday presents for my little girls 5th birthday so hopefully that will keep me busy 🙂
11/08- 210.4lb- did over my 10,000 steps yesterday and stuck to my eating plan. Today I am aiming for 1400cals, I want it to be nutritious and filling though, no snacking and making sure I hit my protein goals.
11/09- 209.6lb- I hit all my targets for the day yesterday, a nice drop in weight to motivate me today. I'm feeling really on it at the moment.
11/10- 209.4lb- well I obviously jinxed myself, I did so well in the day yesterday, over 15,000 steps, loads of calories burned, and then I decided to have a glass of wine or two, then all self restraint went out the window. I was lucky to escape with any deficit at all. Feeling super hungry today now, I'm going to try having a low calorie day today, or that is the plan...
11/11- 209.6lb
11/12- 209.4lb- I have been absolutely rubbish at logging over the weekend. I have however redeemed myself slightly by having such a good day today, over 16,000steps and a low calorie day.
11/13- 209.2lb- well not a great ten days but a lose none the less. I could have done with being a lot better over the weekend. Will see you all on the next challenge ☺️11 -

Foods I haven't had in a long time. Things I love (like pasta) that just doesn't fit in my plan. It's like the land of Milk and Honey. I also feel ashamed when I share my bad experiences or my weaknesses, but I do it so that others will know that it happens. Others will see that the weight does come off. Others will see that it is okay to enjoy those special occasions with family (as @jerier said) and not worry so much. I hate that it feels like we've undone weeks worth of work, but much of it truly is water. @tiabirdie56 shared the water recipe and it really helps me after "events". The parsley seems to help the most, but I often use all 3 items in the water. With the parsley, I actually shred it up into the hot water and I include a few stems too. Seep for 10 - 12 minutes and drink plain after straining through a strainer or a paper towel. Sip like tea. It doesn't taste the greatest, but it really does work. Usually about 2 lbs per day of water for 1-2 days. You've enjoyed your uncle's birthday and that is good. You're back on track and that is fantastic. Best of all, you've shared the experience and are allowing us all to see the weight move back down over the coming days. You are helping others see that it's not the end of the world. Thanks for sharing and reminding us all that we are all human and we are not alone. We all know that you work hard at this. You are doing fantastic and I, for one, am very proud of you.
I know you didn't write that to me, @deepwoodslady, but I certainly needed to hear that. Thanks!4 -

11/4–146.2 I was away for the last 4 days and feel pretty good about not gaining more than .4 considering what all I was up against. I’ll take this as the beginning number of this new round!
11/5—146.2 Should not have bought that peanut butter yesterday 8-) I had plenty of activity yesterday (in fact, I’m really sore), but snacked late on low fat peanut butter. Note to self: not a good idea.
11/6—totally forgot to weigh until too late
11/7—148.5 Well, so I ate like a demon yesterday, so this is no surprise. Hopefully, I can get my act together today and work it off quickly.
11/8—147.6 Whew, headed back in the right direction. Just gotta keep it going.
11/9—147.6 Drank lots of water and ate on plan, so this should drop some more soon. Going to be away from scales tomorrow.
11/10—did not weigh
11/11—149.4 OMG, I am NOT going back over 150!!!
11/12—147.2 Whew, breathe….I will be up a little for the round tomorrow, barring a small miracle, but there’s been a lot going on in my life, and I caved to some comfort eating. I am back in control now.
11/13—146.4 I’ll take this, all things considered. See you in Round 59, folks!11 -

11/4 - 146.5 - We had family over for dinner last night and I definitely ate over maintenance. It will probably show up tomorrow.
11/5 - 148 - Here's the mulled wine, spinach lasagna, meatball, caprese salad, garlic bread...and a small slice of carrot cake from Saturday. Although I don't regret the food and wine from Saturday, I'm so glad I'm aware enough now to not eat like that every weekend.
11/6 - 147 - Glad to see some of the gain was from sodium. I took the day off work today for a medical test later this morning. I dropped off our new dog for training/doggie day care today and then I stopped and voted. I can tell the anxiety for the upcoming test is making me want to snack while I wait to go in. I'll be good though, snacking is not going to change anything but my weight.
11/7 - 147 - All things considered I did well with my eating yesterday, but not much movement. Back to work today and getting my steps in.
11/8 - 148 - Ouch, that Saturday meal is really going to haunt me this week. I've been eating well and got my steps and water in yesterday, so I know this will eventually drop again.
11/9 - 145.5 - Wow, I'm actually a little skeptical, but the first 2 times I weighed it said 144.5. It hit the 145.5 the next 2 times so that's what I'm going with. We had our first snow here in NE Ohio this morning and it was so much fun watching our new dog go crazy over it. Of course with the snow comes thoughts of rich, creamy soups, toasty bread, and warm pies. I'm going to be good this weekend because I'll be indulging in all these things in a couple weeks.
11/10 - 146.5 - High sodium evening meal last night. I hope I do better for tomorrow's weigh in.
11/11 - 145.5 - I made some really good eating choices yesterday, so I'm happy to see this number.
11/12 - 145.5 - Now if I can just have this stick through tomorrow I'll be happy!
11/13 - 146.5 - Darn it! I have a few inflammatory things going on with my body right now that could be causing water retention. I'll be drinking a lot of water today!9 -
Hi all! I'm going to give this another try. Was here a while ago for a few rounds but gave up because I kept losing and gaining the same 5lbs. I should have stayed because now I've kept those 5lbs on and added a few more 🙁
Day/Weight/Comment
11/04 - 258.8...not happy to be up to this again but it is what it is. Starting back on plan today, and no more excuses.
11/05 - 257.8...stayed under calories, 45 mins of exercise..gave a beginner's yoga YouTube video a try and learned that I'm super tight and not flexible at all! 100oz of water and no soda..I've decided to cut it out entirely.
11/06 - 255.8...stayed on plan, 30min walk and 100oz of water. Glad to know that some of my gain was water weight!
11/07 - 253.4..yay! So actually most of it was water weight 😀
11/08 - 251.2...surprised to see this number already, I'm sure I will probably stick around here for a couple of days. Very happy with it though.
11/09 - 250.6...starting to slow down now, so I guess all the water is finally gone. I had take out chicken strips for supper, which wasn't great, but I kept it within calories and didn't binge!!
11/10 - 249.6...woohoo!! Back to my lowest in July. My mind seems to be in the right place now and I don't think I'll get stuck here again. I've been reminding myself everyday (multiple times) that I control what I eat, not my cravings and I can still eat what I want as long as it fits into plan.
11/11 - 248.6...was suppose to go out of town yesterday but went outside to load up and found a completely flat tire. Took the whole day for my SO to get it in somewhere..sat and long weekend so most things were closed. So my son and I spent the whole day inside, and holy did I crave because I was bored!! Managed to not give in, but it was hard. Will be going out of town today for the night, not sure if I'll have a scale tomorrow or not.
11/12 - no scale...nsv, for the first time ever I went out of town and actually tracked everything and stayed within calories 😁
11/13 - 247.4...this has been a great round for me! A lot of water weight loss in the beginning but definitely having actual losses now. Also, I feel like my head is in the right place again, which is great. My goals actually feel achievable again 😁 See everyone in the the next round!14
