Day/Weight/Comment
12/04 - 240.5lb - - slightly up, no reason for this as I created ample deficit yesterday so hopefully will see it drop off in the next few days. Story of my life 😂.
12/05 - 240.5lb - - same as yesterday. Plus side atleast this is my sticking point at the moment in the lower range of the last week or so.
12/06 - 239lb - - a new low so cant complain it was a low calorie day yesterday and so I may see this fluctuate slightly tomorrow as today I plan to have around 1500kcal, still a decent deficit. I drank lots yesterday as well so probably helped with some of the water retention. I’m happy with this
12/07 - 239.8lb - and we’re back up again but hey I knew it would happen and know I still created a deficit yesterday so will just be retention. A low day today so will hopefully see this drop back off and stay off 😅. Not too discouraged as getting used to the fluctuations

UGW: updated 67-63kg (148-139lbs) end of spring 2019
Round goals: treadmill running, yoga, body weight workouts

Tue 12/04 - 71.4kg
This is not great, up 1 kg from yesterday, but I suppose it is the weekend showing - little water, lots of salt and snacks. And last night also turned into a little bit of a binge once again.
Plan for today: food for today weighed and logged, salad and crackers for lunch, fruit snacks. Treadmill after work, healthy dinner with lots of veg and enough to have left over tomorrow. Early night so i get up for yoga in the morning.
Wed 12/05 - 70.8kg
This looks better. Stuck to my plan, went on the treadmill (35mins run and 20mins brisk walk with an incline), had my healthy dinner minus baked potatoes as I burned them, oops. But that meant I had some cals for snacking left over.
And I got up to start today with some yoga despite a terribly hot night, healthy breakfast, lunch will be a guess as I have a meeting. But dinner is ready and waiting for me after the gym.
Thu 12/06 - 70.5kg
Right direction despite not sticking to the plan yesterday. The lunch meeting was very nice steak, the beef here is amazing, no chips. But then I was invited to a pub quiz, which meant I only managed a very short run plus my legs were sooo tired from Tuesday. At the quiz, food was provided and I had to estimate again and also couldn't say no to a couple of beers.
Today, I was too tired to get up for yoga and also won't be going to the gym as I have a lot of work to do and today really want to make it to bed by 10pm.

Fri 12/07 71.4kg
Ugh, I am an idiot. LNS got me, because 'I deserved it' doing work in the evening, being tired and missing home. I am not liking this trend, I was 2kg down from this last week. It wasn't all bad at first, did yoga last night and one American Housewife episode worth of body weight exercises. I discovered that I can use my stairs as a step and still see the TV Didn't log the exercise as I didn't know how to quantify, but I worked up a little sweat. However that surely wasn't enough for the popcorn and pretzles I had after a healthy dinner. So I stopped logging those snacks after the second trip to the kitchen. 😩
I realise that I often eat the same or more cals in fruit and snacks as I do in meals. I need to review and change that. I love my little snacks, they aren't all too unhealthy, but it means I'll never break the habit.
Today, yay, Friday! we only work until 1-2pm in the afternoon - the other days are a bit longer instead - so I will go to the gym for a longer run&walk in the afternoon. I also started this morning with yoga and cucumber water (I can't stop running to the loo). I have packed a slightly bigger portions of breakfast and lunch instead of extra snacks, only fruit for now. Hopefully, that will set me up for the gym later.

@Deviette Hugs for pausing the Fitbit. I got a new HRM at the end of October and there is a learning curve! I forget to tell it to start or forget to tell it to save. I’ve messed up more than a couple of times. I’m just old school and not used to using an APP!

...

I have a tendency to forget to put it back on again when I take it off for judo, so I lose all my steps for some time afterwards and then it tells me that I've done barely any for that day.
And I always forget there's a generic "workout" option on it too (aka, great for when I decide to dance around the house for no reason.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/04: 67.2 - More fluid retention. Everything hurts from training yesterday because I worked really very hard (and threw a couple of people I normally struggle against, so winning!). Cake in the office, but with the number of calories I get extra from judo the cookie and small slice of cake was not a problem. I do love it when things work out well like that. Considering going to a run today, but might leave it for tomorrow and just do some gentle stretches out today as seriously, everything is screaming at me. I really wished I had foam rolled last night. Water was better yesterday, still probably lower than I would've liked, but better than it has been recently.
12/05: 67.5 - Well that's my one day not in deficit sorted for the round. I was hoping to go longer on that but I'll live. I deserve that scale rise. Lazy day yesterday, I think I'm coming down with a cold, however I need to go for a run today (as I didn't get out yesterday) so I'll have to push through and manage. Yesterday would have been fine were it not for all the food that was around, and for some reason, my unhelpful hunger come dinner time causing me to over eat there too. Did well for water during the day, and then didn't drink anything once I got home, not a great situation, but still better than previously. I have a water bottle on my desk at work now so I'm hopeful that'll keep me sipping all day.
12/06: 66.6 - My scale weight really is all over the place at the moment. If I wasn't getting NSV I'd be super bummed. Good day yesterday, and went for a run. Run wasn't great, my feet were really killing me, although my lungs were fine. Pup behaved himself on the run and I actually really enjoyed it. Just wish I could've gone longer without my feet hurting. Also, pretty sure I missed off a small amount at the end as I paused my fitbit by accident. More than somewhat frustrating. Drank much better yesterday, still need to make sure I drink enough in the evening, but was certainly better than the last few days.

12/07: 66.8 - That's more like it, tbh yesterday's massive jump down was never going to stay there, but this is more like what I was expecting to see. Small deficit yesterday, but a deficit is a deficit. Eating was okay but not helped by the fact we ended up in the pub for dinner (steak night, yaaaas). And spent some time putting our christmas tree up, feeling in the holiday mood now! Water intake was better, but I still wasn't drinking enough in the evening. Looking forward to going for a run this evening, and hopefully the weather will clear up.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
• A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
• Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
• The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
• Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
• The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
• When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
• Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

12/04= 147.4 Need to drink lots of water today to counteract some salty foods over the last couple days.
12/05= 148.8 Mexican dinner last night means No Junk Food Challenge for today and maybe a couple more days. I really need to make time for more than just walks today. Need to go to the gym.

My 22nd round!

OSW: 186 (March 2018)
UGW: 144-147

Pre challenge weight loss: -12 lbs.
Challenge weight loss R40 – R60: -30 lbs.

R61 SW: 144

With the help of these challenges, I’ve made it to a very comfortable weight for me. I’ve lost some weight many times in the past, but my biggest challenges have been to maintain it. My goal this round and going forward will be to maintain my weight in the low to mid 140’s.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/04 - 144 - I'm happy and a little surprised I didn't have a delayed bump from the weekend. Even though I only had a couple hundred extra calories each day, I've gotten so used to only eating around 1200 calories that unless it's a special event of some kind, I feel kind of guilty when I go over.
12/05 - 144 - Holding steady, which is where I like to be for now.
12/06 - 143 - It's good to see a little drop before the weekend.
12/07 - 143.5 - Not enough water yesterday.

Hello! I am newly returned to MFP and this is my first challenge.


I am at my lifetime high, and seem to have gained 3.5 lbs in 2 days of reasonable eating- which cannot be real. So my goal for this challenge is to finish below 210.

12/4 216 (mini- win: went out for a rare lunch with a friend; didn't over eat! Saved $$ that way too!)
12/5 215
12/6. 214.5 still over my weigh-in from last Friday, frustrating! But down from yesterday so I'll take it. Happy Friday all!

Round 61 - my 4th round

Female - 58 - 5'7"
OSW: 271.8 (Oct 9/18)
UGW: 165 or lower

End R58: 261.2 (-2.2)
End R59: 258.8 (-2.4)
End R60: 256.6 (-2.2)

My goal is to stick to 1500 calories or less per day. I would love to see the 240s by the end of December and I feel confident I can do it.

12/03 - 256.6 - End R60 - bumped up 2# from the day before with indulgent after dinner eating.
12/04 - 255.8
12/05 - 253.8 - This is what I like about daily weighing. I can see that one or two off-plan days don't have to turn in to ruination as long as I get back to plan asap. (I edited my weight after posting because of TMI )
12/06 - 254.4 - Yesterday, I made fudge for my partner to take to his Christmas party at work. Do I have to even tell you who ate some? To taste test of course. The scale will show me a better number tomorrow.

12/07 - 255.6 - The scale didn't show me a better number today. lol . Too much non-essential eating before bed.

Round 61 - (my 2nd round)

51, Standing: 5'9" in NYC
OSW: 274 ~ CSW: 234.2 ~ GW: 230

12/03 ~ 235.2 - End R60 not too bad overall. Down 1.6 lbs.

12/04 ~ 234.2 - SOOOORE is the word of the day.

12/05 ~ 233.1 - Unexpectedly had time yesterday and spent HOURS deep cleaning house, moving furniture, reorganizing closets and decorating for the holidays. So surprisingly not as sore today, but feeling achy enough in my knees and lower back to make this a rest day for sure. Hoping some mild stretching this morning and eve gets the kinks out ~ and the weight loss keeps dropping! Have a great day everyone.

12/06 ~ 232.9 - My sore body bows in gratitude and prays the good fortune continues, lol 🙏

12/07 ~ 232.8 - thought it would be higher, but a drop is a drop! Happy Friday all!

12/03 - 174.8
12/04 - 174.6 Small victory. I enjoyed goulash and garlic bread for dinner last night but used portion control.
12/05 - 174.6 Holding steady. I have to keep motivated. I should maybe add a little more exercise, or just some exercise lol, would be good. I know that would kick it up (or down) a notch.
12/06 - 174.0 Now that's more like it. 20 minutes on the treadmill and I survived. I might try it again tonight.
12/07 - 172.8 Woo Hoo! Gotta keep on it. Love the feeling of accomplishment.

Round 61 SW: 220

12/4—216.2—That's 3.8 pounds since yesterday. The amount of water I was retaining with TOM was pretty impressive! Still not feeling great, but improving.

12/5—216.8—A bump up but this was an early weigh in. Not a real gain. I'm in week 3 of my pushups challenge and I can really see my improvement. I'm getting stronger every day!

12/6—217.8—Huh.

12/7—217—I'm all over the place! That's so TOM!
