Round 62
Please join us! Starting on 12/14 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 62
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.
SW: 146.5
GW: 142
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 146.5 ~ (Steps 23,296) ~ Today I was about able to get a fabulous swimming session in plus make smart food choices. Yesterday a 1/2 hour before my Body Works class was scheduled, it got canceled AGAIN. So aggravating when you plan to go and they can’t get a reliable instructor,
BTW, I would loveeee to be at least in the low 140’s by the end of the year. Focus focus focus.
12/15 144.2 ~ (Steps 23,187) ~ Extremely successful day, I went to a different location, my gym has at least 30 different locations so it was kind of cool checking out a different one. Plus I finally finished Christmas decorating,. My goal too is to be as close to 140 as possible. If I could figure out NOT to snack at night NOT so much, it would of happen long time ago,
12/16 145.3 ~ (Steps 16,757) ~ I don’t understand
. We had a marvelous lunch, trying a new restaurant but I was wayyyyy under in my calories for the day,
12/17 144.2 ~ (Steps 18,508) ~ Yesterday was a relaxing day, hubby made his favorite cookies (sugar cookies w/ kisses). I did ONLY have one. That’s a win in my book,

I want this round to be the start of building consistency and habit in eating mindfully. Maybe throw in a little exercise. And if I can lose 1-2 pounds, that would be even better.
12/14 -147.5; I shouldn't be surprised by this because yesterday was full of salt and carbs. There's a part of me that keeps hoping that those delicious things won't have an impact, but they do. Today will be better.
12/15 -Traveling and no scale...I tried to be a little bit good, but had a too much fun at a holiday party.
12/16 -Traveling and no scale...I also had Taco Bell so I'm sure that wasn't the best idea.
12/17 -147.4; Down .1 pounds from my starting weight. Given that I didn't put as much effort as I should have, I'll take that as a positive. I'm back on my normal daily schedule now and back to intermittent fasting. I'm looking forward to some time off from work in the next few days so I can start easing myself back into a routine for working out and meal prep.

@GrandmaJackie Look back at what you ate 2 or 3 days ago and serif that explains your gain.
@FarmerCarla I love the story of your journey! Support is so important and I think we don’t realize that initially.
@wellnfree I haven’t checked out those sites yet but I’m about to! Thank you!
@puttyputty Thank you.2 -

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.

12/14 131.5 Oops! My Garmin died and threw my whole day off! I ordered a new one but forgot to come back! I’ll try to catch up tomorrow.
12/15 131.5 I may have mentioned that a friend of ours passed on Monday. This has had a huge impact on Carl which in turn is affecting me. I feel very disorganized this week and am having trouble getting anything accomplished. Carl and I went to a movie (The Mule) and lunch (Cici’s pizza in a bowl) then we came home and he made cookies for Roy’s memorial later this morning.
12/16 131.0 Two texts from DD that DGD#4 is playing back to back softball games starting 10 minutes ago. Sheesh- how about a little notice! 😬

Day/Weight/Comment
12/14: 198. I didn't actually weigh in today since I am traveling for work, but I weighed in yesterday knowing I wouldn't get to weigh in today, and I'm counting that. I'm disappointed, I've gained 9 lbs since July, after losing 15 lbs the few months before that. It's been a bit of a roller coaster and my motivation has been in short supply. But, passing 200 again is kind of a dire situation, so I'm motivated to try to bring my weight back down again.
12/15: 199. Ugh.
12/16: forgot to weigh in! Jeez.
12/17: 198.2. my eating has not been great with the holidays throwing curve balls at me right and left. I also spent the whole weekend making a gingerbread house so sugar and goodies were all around me. I'm determined to have a more austere week, though. In good news, I've been doing really good with my exercise.

23nd Round for me: Female 65, height – 5’
Here we are again. Looked over all my rounds and realized that I’ve only lost around 3 lb. total. 😖 I’d lost about 4 lb. on MFP before joining this challenge. I feel like I’ve lost around 10 – which I have. I also gained 7. Have to be less complacent about it. New maxim: each round counts.Round 39 (1st for me) – SW 163, loss -.2Round 62 – 160.2 Goal this round: under 159, I think this is doable and I need to challenge myself more.
Round 40 – on holidays, gain +1.6
Round 41 – SW 164.4, loss -2
Round 42 - SW: 162.6, loss -.6
Round 43 – SW 162, loss -.4

Round 50 – SW 160.2, loss -.8
Round 51 – SW 160.8, loss -1
Round 52 – on holidays, no scale
Round 53 – SW 159.8, loss -1.4

Round 59 – SW 161.2, +.4
Round 60 – SW 161.6, -.8
Round 61 – 160.8, -.6
I’m going to apply to go on a short course in April. That is 12-15 weeks away (about 10 rounds). So my more immediate goal is to lose 1 lb/round. The course is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time – I don’t have to lose weight for it but it would be sweet if I did.
Ultimate Goal Weight – 128; Hoping to be under 140 by end of June.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 – 161.2 – Not sure why I’m up as yesterday was quite good. If I hang in there I think it won’t last. I haven’t gotten to the gym this week though because of this cold, so maybe it’s that and drinking a lot (to keep the coughing under control)
12/15 – 161.2 – Finished supper a little late but resisted the LNS and kept very close to calories.
12/16 – 161.6 – Another good day yesterday, was feeling much better
so even did the vacuuming and mopped the floor. Eventually it must go down.
12/17 – 160.2 – Up to maintenance calories yesterday but payoff from the days before. Back to the gym this morning, yay!

am a 50 year old 5'5" 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.
I need to step up my game if I want to meet any of my goals.

During December I just want to make it out of the month alive and without too much damage. I have slowly inched myself into the 180’s. I want to get back into the 170’s and maintain (at the very minimum). I want to increase my exercising now that my livingroom renovation is complete. I want to get all my steps in and incorporate more & more of the great ideas you all have shared. My personal goals are the greatest presents that I can give to myself during this most Holy month of celebrations. This is my way of saying Merry Christmas to me. Your ideas and comments are the greatest presents that I could ever receive from all of you. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to us all!
MY STATS:
Highest weight ever (2014/2015): 253
Original starting weight for this current journey : (1-11-2018) 235.0

Day/Weight/Comment:
12/14 - University Hospital appointment went very well. They are not recommending a mastectomy for me, at this point. They do want to do fat injections into the one that was surgically altered after my partial mastectomy which would require several procedures (lots of travel). First I must lose whatever weight that I chose to lose. This is because any fat they inject can be lost as I lose weight (like any fat on my body). Then, when I am satisfied with my weight loss, I call them and they set up the process of beginning the fat transplanting. Because of the 60 pound loss so far (I speak loosely due to my recent gains during fall & travels), I may need a breast lift on the good side which has some volume loss. This will not increase my breast size, nor reduce it, but get me back to my normal (whatever that is now with the weight I’ve lost) but with symmetry. I am thrilled at the prospect of a normal bra and a normal look again. Yayyyyy. Thanks to all the well wishers and the likes and hugs. I did okay with the diet yesterday, but caved a little during the Pool Hall outing. I weighed myself this morning but forgot to write it down. I know it was in the 180 range but I don’t remember if it was in the 180 range or in the 181 range. I will post tomorrow before I travel for some more Christmas shopping. I am over 2 hours from a mall. But about 1 ½ hours from here is a town that has a few larger stores. It’s not great, but it will help get more done for sure! I am also shopping online like crazy, when able. Lots of sitting! I am going to take a baggie of almonds with me tomorrow so I will stop less and eat less. Please God, help me with those big town temptations!
12/15 - 180.6 Went out of town shopping. Lots of steps in. Mindful of calories but over on carbs & not enough liquids. Shop till I drop mentality.
12/16 - 181.2 There’s that dinner out yesterday during shopping. I did great today at home to offset it. Scale should be better tomorrow.
12/17 - 180.4 That’s more like it!

Male, 39
6'0"
Goal: Get BF% to 10-12%, then bulk.
Round 57: +2.6 (15.1%)
Round 58: -1.8 (15.1%)
Round 59: -1.8 (14.1%)
Round 60: -7.0 (12.1%)
Round 61: +8.4 (14.1%)
Round 62 Starting Weight: 187.0 (Huge gain last day of Rd. 61 due to sodium, so it will probably skew the results)
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 182.4- As expected, dropped a bunch of the water weight from the high sodium day at the end of Round 61. Had a really good day. Got 2 workouts in yesterday (lifting workout with deadlifts, lat pull downs, overhead press, bicep curls and pec flys, then backed that up with 3 miles on the treadmill), as well as hitting my macros and calories. Drank about 140 oz. of water. Squat day today.
12/15 - 181.2 - Solid deficit with a lift and a good run in for workout.
12/16 - 181.8 - Got a good HIIT workout and abs in yesterday. Ate at a solid deficit and felt good throughout the day.
12/17 - 182.2 - Ate out all day and had a Italian family dinner that could have derailed me, but had a solid day food wise still. Rest day as far as workouts. Weight is starting to settle in and now will work from here to continue to cut body fat.

Lost 4.4lbs last round
Would love another 2.5 or so this time.
Yesterday's weight: 172.2
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14: 171 I want to go to the gym pretty bad, but I'm a sicky.
12/15: 171.2 I let myself eat too many chips yesterday
Best believe I ran my butt off today though.
12/16: 170.2 SO CLOSE TO THE 160s! Normal weight for my height starts at 168, so I'm pumped. Hopefully this means I'll hit that NY goal
Can't lie, considered going to the gym BEFORE the weigh in, but I never do that so it feels like cheating.
12/17: 170.2 I've got some sorta bug that just won't go away. Happy no-gym Monday

Round 62
12/14 145.5 Didn't post
12/15 146 Seen this coming, not nearly enough water lately and too much junk food, and fast food last night. Reminds me of why I can't eat like that all the time.
12/16 146 Feeling very thirsty and hungry. I increased my calories from 1200 to 1380 because it seemed I was always eating back my exercise calories and sometimes more. I'll probably change it back after the first of the year.
12/17 147 Honestly I wasn't going to weigh myself this morning. Then I thought, no I will weigh but keep it to myself. I need to hold myself accountable. We are all here to support and share our journey, and show one another that we all struggle from time to time and have off days. Yesterday I ate so bad. Had a big lunch because we went out to eat and I ate so many carbs- comfort food. Was going to let that be the only thing I ate and then I had cereal late last night- not just 1 bowl. "Trying" to make today a light day and going to try to stay out of the cereal tonight.

My name is Jen. I’ve been sitting at the low 200s for a while now trying everything to get my weight to budge. A great MFP friend suggested this group and so far it’s helping! The weight is still moving at a snails pace but at least it’s moving!

12/14 204.2. Bit of a surprise with this number but I will take it! Hopefully I will be able to stay in check over the weekend.
12/15 - 204.4
12/16 - did not weigh in
12/17 - 205.8. I had a feeling the loss might have been short lived and related to being sick and stressed. Hopefully this will start to come down again.

Goal: Increase fat in my diet.
Date/Weight/Comment
12/14 -216.4 I think some of the water retention from working out this week is now gone.
12/15 -215.8 Weird night last night. Wind storm in the area and power went out at about 6:30pm and didn't get back on until 12:30am. Ended up going to bed early and in turn woke up extra early. Plan is to take dog out for 3 mile walk today during a break in the storm. Going out for lunch and going to the symphony later today. Goal is to get water in today.
12/16 -216.4 Water weight from lunch yesterday. I tried to make sure that I didn't eat anything that I shouldn't, but I wasn't going to worry too much if there was some ingredient in my meal that is on my do not eat list. Went to the gym today and did some weightlifting. Today I am relaxing, watching football, and making sure I work on getting my water in.
12/17 -216.9 Feeling heavy today. I ate a lot more calories than usual yesterday. I ate a whole avocado yesterday, something I never do, and even though I know avocados have a lot of calories, it wasn't until I was reviewing my diary yesterday evening did I realize the % of my daily calories that went to that avocado. It was a lot, but it tasted so good. Lesson learned, everything in moderation. This morning I was looking at my comments and noticed that over the weekend I was working on getting my water in, something that I attempt to work on every weekend and something that doesn't happen. This morning I realized that who cares if I don't get my water in over the weekend. I want to live an 80/20 life and not worry about things that for me right now aren't that important. So, while I don't get all the water I should be getting in during the weekend, I still get more than enough water during the week. Right now I'm focusing on exercising, consistent logging, eating at a slight deficit, and following my elimination diet. Whether I get enough water in on the weekends or not who cares!

New to the forum. I have been on and off MFP
for years. I am getting older and losing weight seems to be more difficult. Getting motivated to eat sensible and exercise routinely has been difficult. I have had 2 big moves away from my family (my support system) due to job relocations in the last 18 months, hoping this is it for the next 10 years. Needing some support to get motivated hoping this group will help.

@cdavisdeva I am with you girl!! Last week my mind was totally made up about working out hard, eating right and for the majority of the time I did that.. but the last couple of days, today included, has not been the best. I am still working out every day but my food needs to be remanaged....again!! I don't know if it's the weather or the holiday but I can't get enough to eat. I mentally want this 2 pound loss by the end of the week so bad but then my will power drops, my tastebuds take over and the next thing I know I am over stuffing myself with junk.. it's a tough time of the year..for sure!!! But all we can ask ourselves for is to try and maintain our weight and be thankful we aren't overkilling it too bad. I know personally, this time last year, i was out of control with my eating and my extreme weight gain proved that (went from 145 last Nov to 160 by january)
Take it one day at a time and don't stress out too much!!! You still got this, you are still holding yourself accountable and you are still sticking to it...,that's a NSV for sure!!6 -
Hopping in on this round too!

Ultimate Goal Weight: 135 (or thereabouts)
Current Weight: 150.6
Round goals:
-Maintain weight (my mom is in the hospital following surgery for a brain bleed so I foresee a bit of a relaxed focus on tracking calories on my part. She did well during the procedure, but will be in the hospital for 2-3 weeks.)
-Squeeze in 20 minutes of exercise at least 4 times (I've been very lax about this, so I need to ease back in)
-Take time to enjoy the holiday season...bonus points for non-food ways.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 150.0 (-.6 from yesterday, -.6 from round start)
12/15 - 150.0 (0.0 from yesterday, -.6 from round start. I'm bracing myself for the number likely on the scale tomorrow, after eating both lunch and supper out. Though I did get a 40 minute walk in, and am getting better about not making myself eat all that's served in a restaurant meal. )
12/16 - 151.0 (+1.0 from yesterday, +.4 from round start. Rather figured that was coming, likely from sodium from yesterday's food. I did get to visit my mom yesterday too. She's doing as well as could be expected, though she's a bit bummed that she'll likely be in hospital for the holidays. I reminded her that we could either bring it to her, or we can just do holidays with her when she's out. Planning on knocking out some more light exercise today, and getting serious about that whole "drink more water" thing.)
12/17 - 151.0 (0.0 from yesterday, +.4 from round start. Fingers crossed for a down swing tomorrow. No room to exercise but I was at least generally on my feet more than normal today.)

Back again! I am honestly just going to try and maintain this round. If I lose an ounce I will be thrilled! We have my DH work Christmas party, my work party, a cookie and candy making family party, and this one ends on a Sunday. Plus we have family coming in Christmas weekend and they are staying with us. The next couple of weeks are going to be rough! I was really hoping to hit the 30 pound mark by the end of the year. I'm close, but don't think it is realistic that I will lose another 2 or 3 pounds by then. I'm happy with what I have done though this year, so I will take it! Good luck everyone!
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 151.1 back up a little from yesterday. I was under calories, but I did have a peach turnover at 9:00 and dinner at 8:30. Both my daughters 10 and 16 had choir performances at 2 different schools last night. So my husband and I had to juggle seeing both of them and getting dinner done for the other kids. I didn't want to eat out, but I ended up eating really late when we got home. Hopefully I can bring it back down, but I have my DH work Christmas party tonight and then candy and cookie baking with the fam tomorrow. So we will see what happens. All I know is this is a once a year thing, so I will try and make smart decisions, but I am going to enjoy it and have fun! Seeing that 149.xxx would be really nice this round though!
12/15 - 150.4 DH Christmas party was a success. We walked away with $150 playing bingo and I ate well. Saved most of my calories for dinner and ate what I wanted without worry. Stayed away from the desserts and even had a beer. Had a great time and stayed on my path. I also got back into a pair of black really tight pants size 6 that I had not worn in many years. So another win. Family cookie and candy baking today. Oldest son is home from school and is helping out. So always good to have him home. 1 event down, 4 to go!
12/16 - 153.0 uuughhh. Totally deserved! Stayed away from the cookies and candy but the chips and dip got me. Who gains 3 pounds over night like that. Oh well it will be off in a couple of days. My family was driving me crazy and all bickering, so it was kind of stressful instead of fun. You know when you get to many women together with all their kids it gets crazy. My sister in law and I aren’t on great terms anyways, so I ate salt and lots of it. Lol, water and relaxing today. We will see what today brings.
12/17 - 154.1 Lots of water to flush all the sodium out and get back on track today. My husband and I are playing hookie today and going to a movie since the kids are all in school. Back to work tomorrow and hopefully by Friday I’ll be back down.
