Day/Weight/Comment
01/06 - 73.9kg This is my starting weight and the heaviest I have ever been without being pregnant! Today is the day this stops. Hoping to see a 1 kg drop by the end of this session. I know I can do this, I just have to get my head in the right place and keep in mind why I want to lose this weight.
01/07 – 73.4kg Ate pretty well yesterday, though still slightly above target. I was planning on exercising while my daughter was doing her gymnastics training, but I got involved with setting up and unpacking her new gym. I guess in a way that was exercise since I was carrying boxes and walking around a lot. I plan on doing a lot of exercise today though, including an hour of Zumba and an hour of adult gymnastics.

01/02 72.8kg 1570
After long haul flights and plane/airport food yesterday. Back to work, the gym and logging everything that passes my lips today.
01/03 72.3 (-0.5) 1544
Good day yesterday, ate what I logged, went to the gym and didn't give in to cravings in the evening. I've decided not no eat back my exercise cals, so I'm logging them as just 1 cal.
Is anyone doing Yoga with Adriene's Dedicate? I meant to start today with day 1 as the video isn't available until I leave the house in the morning, but then found it was too long for the time I had available, so did an old one instead.
01/04 71.9 (-0.4) 1557
I like this trend, hopefully it'll continue through this round back to below 70k. Yesterday went ok, I mostly stuck to my pre-logged food. I did have one piece of sweet I had brought back for my colleagues (it was a 130cals!), but changed my dinner from pasta to salad. I also ate the last of a few cereal bars I had from my trip, which were also high calorie. In the evening, I decided not to go shopping or to the gym or communicate with various people, but take time for myself and start with Dedicate Day 1. It was great! This morning, I did Day 2 and will also go to the gym tonight. I'll also do a healthy food shop. I remembered today that I had started eating bigger portions to curb the snacking, I'll get back to that from this evening. And I also looked at my macros and again noticed I need to up my protein, which I seem to always struggle with.
01/05 71.0kg (-0.9) wild guess: 2400??
I think this is all water weight, which i'm shedding with help of Tish's parsley/cucumber water. I can even see how my feet are no longer swollen.
Yesterday was good, stuck to my eating plan, went shopping, went to the gym. I spent the evening on the sofa and really wanted wine and all the snacks, but stuck to tea and my prelogged snacks. Today, started with yoga, which was sweatier than expected, had a filling and late breakfast and now have to do some work. I plan to either go for a walk or to the gym for a walk on the treadmill later.
01/06 71.0kg 1587
My plan didn't work out as I helped a friend, who's been having a *kitten* time, and that help came in form of going for food and drinks. I was relatively mindful, but even a few beers meant I went way over cals. I didn't walk or run, partly also due to the rain and also didn't do much of my work. Today was supposed to be my more "relaxed eating" day as i'm meeting another friend. But now i'm about to rush to the gym, squeeze in some work and then meet my friend... not the Sunday I had in mind.

01/07 71.0kg again (+-/0.0)
That's not what I wanted. Good day yesterday, didn't turn out as hectic as I thought, which was nice. My legs were tired, so didn't run as much as I wanted to, but walked instead. After the gym, I weighed 70.5kg. Then went for coffee&cake with my friend and fit in a brownie without eating back my exercise cals. I have officially eaten the last snacks at home and I'm going to try not to buy any more. Fruit and tea for late night snacking now and if I manage to stick to it until Fri, there will be a reward in form of a bagel or cake from this nice shop.
Today, started with Yoga, all my food is planned and I will to go to the gym. I was gonna write 'want to go/plan to go', but decided it's not optional, so I will go. I was speaking to a friend on the phone yesterday and talking abut weight and exercise etc. And I realise that my legs and bum have gone quite wobbly and it must be due to the lack of walking here. So I know, once back in the UK, this will change again, but it's really annoying. I will increase my treadmill walking, but I can't make up walking around 5-7km every day, just through my commute and a little extra.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 - 240.5lb - expected to lose some water weight from the kind of food I’ve been eating but also expect to lose some as TOM is due in next few days so I normally a lb or two with that. Getting back on track with healthy eating and putting all the festivities behind me
01/04 - 240.1lb - I’ll take this
01/05 - 238.25 - TOM started yesterday so water weight coming off and that combined with good deficits. Still feeling quite disappointed with a gain over Christmas however atleast its coming off quickly and not as bad as it first appeared. If this weight sticks I will set a new goal for this round.
01/06 - 239lb - slight fluctuation. Met with my family last night and they suggested doing a weekly weigh in again, this was how I actually became motivated to lose weight back in September and it worked well for a few weeks but then people dropped off and eventually it was just me doing it. I definitely find the accountability helps me but then find it really hard when others are on and off to keep myself on and not just join them if that makes sense. We will see how it goes 😅
01/07 - 237.85lb - slowly coming back off. I think I’d like at least another lb off by the end of this round so going to set a revised goal of 236.5lb.

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!

03/01 Yesterday I did my December and 2018 review, I gained 4lbs over the whole year, so I'll put that down to a success for a year of unintentional maintainance , I've outlined my 2019 goals in my blog today (www.exercisenotextrafries.com if anyone want to take a peek - not selling anything)both for my fitness and nutrition and also my life in general, which includes shifting 30lbs of weight by Mid-October. I overate a little yesterday but hope to curb it today, usual story of trying to get back into a routine after being overly indulgent over the holidays. Today's goals are to get a lower body workout done at lunchtime, get my steps in and do a good food shop this evening. I need to be more strict with myself, I know I can do it, I've done it before so on with it I get!

07/01 Busy weekend, not at my own place every night at the moment so weigh in's are a bit intermittent. Stomach has been a bit off last couple of days and felt a bit bloated, not sure why, maybe something to do with the cold I've had. Goals for today are to stick within calorie goals and get an Upper Body Workout done this evening.

01/02 - 192 - I know this is a day early, but I needed to start ASAP. Yikes! Those holidays really added up.
01/03 - 190.4 - I know these first pounds are water, but it’s nice to see the scale move.
01/04 - 189.7 - I stayed low carb all day yesterday even through the cravings.
01/05 - 190.6 - I knew my weight was up when I woke up this morning and couldn’t get me rings off. I was too high on carbs yesterday, but it’s ok. I’ll clean it up today and drink a lot of water.
01/06 - 189.7 - Did pretty well with food and water yesterday but still woke up feeling dehydrated. I have been trying to make sure I get lots of water today and stay low on the carbs.
01/07 - 189.2 - Made it through the weekend without giving into carb cravings. That’s an achievement for me!

Happy New Year one and all. Not posted on here for a long time so have decided to just reset and start the new year fresh (so being cheeky and posting my weights up from 1st Jan!)

Bit of weight has gone back on over the last few months (holidays, no kitchen due to building works, family things going on, then Christmas etc etc) - all excuses not reasons though ) so looking this round to get back into decent planned meals and to cut out the snacking, the "grab -and-go" meals and eating out (functional kitchen back up and running again). Expect a reasonable loss this round just by getting back to normal so no target set as such other than behavioural ones.

01/01 - 158.50lb new start weight - not pretty but have at least faced the scales Meals planned for the day
01/02 - 157.40lb (-1.1lb) one day of decent eating and drinking more water and feel better already as that bloated feeling starts to go. First day back at work today so have meals prepped and planned

01/03 - 153.90lb (-3.50lb) I love the way the weight falls off after a period of over-indulgence and then getting backing on track! I know it wont be this easy for long so will enjoy it while I can! Day out today with my girls who are still on school holidays (at the zoo so walked 13,000 steps) and was also back to the gym tonight....

01/04 - 153.90lb - STS but not unexpected given what I've lost over the last few days! Its the weekend now...

01/05 - DNW - got brought tea in bed and had a lazy morning so to be honest I forgot!
01/06 - DNW
01/07 - DNW - last of the Christmas socialising this weekend so didn't bother weighing in as would be a "false" weight anyway. Didn't go mad though and feel good in myself. Been looking into our summer holiday destination for this year over the weekend too, so plenty of motivation and reason to get back on plan and stay on plan! Back to normal this week work wise and the kids back to school today so should be a "normal" week with no reason to go off plan.

I’m a bit late but I’m in. I start Keto tomorrow. Promised myself I’d give that plan a month and reassess then.

1/5=196.2. Started Keto 3 days ago,pretty amazing but probably water. Still doing IF too.Hope that I can keep this focus bc I plan on only doing this do 2 weeks. After all my honest attempts with little success this is just unbelievable. Love all of your posts.Those 4 W's are a perfect reminder,Weigh,water,workout & Watch.Thank you,G
1/6=194.0. What???? Hard to imagine this loss after working for so long. Hope this downward trend continues.I am focused with Keto,water & workouts. I am so thrilled

I’ve been in maintenance for several months until the holidays, content at around 146. I am now OVER the point at which I didn’t want to be again (150), so I’ll be getting back on track to lose back down to at least around 146 or so. May try to go lower in the new year, but we will see. For the immediate future, I just want to get and stay back under 150.

Goal for round 64= 149.x

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03= 152.6
01/04= 151.8 Slowly headed in the right direction. I’ve really been doing better, but the scales are hard to move. I have been moving my body an incredible amount, really, but the scales are not responding as desired…yet! (The power of YET!)
01/05= 151.8
01/06= 152.0 Last couple days of vacation, so it’ll be back to routine tomorrow.
01/07= 153.0 Home to a different set of scales. Done with vacation, so hoping this doesn’t stay long. Maybe I can get back to making progress now.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 11st 10.4lb Was not feeling too well yesterday so didn't quite manage to eat all of my calories which explains the loss. Better today but I do have a sore throat.
01/04 11st 11lb Slightly up. I did have to estimate my breakfast out yesterday but it couldn't have been much more than I put and I had a lot of exercise calories that I didn't eat which wouldn't explain the difference. But I'm not too worried
01/05 11st 10.2lb Happy with this although it only takes me down 0.2lb from starting weight of round. Still not feeling well. I'm beginning to think I would have been better staying at home for Christmas instead of picking up bugs from family!
01/06 11st 8.8lb Not surprised with this as I didn't eat all of my calories yesterday. That's due to not feeling well still. I'll have to be careful when I'm feeling better and more active that I keep to my calorie limit as I don't want to under eat anymore than over eat.

01/07 11st 8.0lb Late weigh in this morning. At the moment I'd rather feel better than lose this weight by not being able to eat properly. I have a committee meeting this evening so I need to give myself a little push today and stop lounging around

Round 64 - Round 1.5 for me
Round 63 - SW=209.5, EW =205.7

Diagnosed with Type II Diabetes - November 10, 2016 A1C = 8.5%, September 21, 2018 A1C = 6.1%

Current Weight - 205.7
First Challenge (Round 63) Weight - 209.5
Highest Weight - 227.8, May 2016
Goal Weight - 199
Ultimate Goal Weight - 194

Goals -
* Under 1900 cals each day
* No blood glucose tests above 180
* Run 5 days above 2.5 miles

1/3 - 205.7, Happy that I did not eat a lot, but did not track and overall choices not great. Need to get on the darn treadmill and make sure testing blood glucose consistently. Focusing on tomorrow's goals.
1/4 - 204.2, Fairly happy. Relatively good eating and a blood glucose of 96 right before bed which was fantastic. A key to success in managing my type II is staying off the carbs after 3PM. Still need to get on the treadmill and track food intake.
1/5 - 202.8, Pretty good day. Ate a light and healthy breakfast and lunch. Went out for dinner and ate so-so, but did not over eat. Big win was 2.7 miles on the treadmill in 30 minutes. Going to try to track food tomorrow. Want to start posting calories and steps for more accountability.
1/6 - 202.8 (1,095 calories in and 9,650 steps) Very good day. First time I ever tracked every single item I ate. Took my son to the newly opened Top Golf. I did not realize it was a bar food place. Only drank unsweetened iced tea. Did not do a lot of walking all day, but hit the treadmill at 8PM. Got in a great 2.7 miles/30 minute run. Interested to see what the scale says tomorrow morning.
1/7 - 200.8

My 25th round!

OSW: 186 (March 2018)
UGW: 144-146

Pre challenge weight loss: -12 lbs.
Challenge weight loss R40 – R63: -26.5 lbs

Although I’m up a few pounds from last round, I’m still down about 40 lbs. from a year ago. It feels amazing to be starting the new year with a healthy bmi. My goal this round is to start moving back down to the mid 140’s.

R64 SW: 147.5

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 - 148 - I know I've done some damage this past week, but I also drank about 16 oz. of water before I hopped on the scale this morning because of a coughing fit. I can't wait until this illness is over.
01/04 - 147 - I'm half afraid to say it but I think I'm feeling a little better. Just in time for my tax season to start. I stayed under weight loss calories yesterday and drank plenty of water. I'm going to try to be extra careful this weekend so I don't bump back up, but weekends are hard.
01/05 - 146.5 - I was surprised to see a drop since we had turkey tacos last night and they are full of sodium, but I'll take it. I've eaten around maintenance today so I hope this sticks.
01/06 - 146 - I'm surprised again, but I'm happy!
01/07 - 147 - There's my weekend bounce! We're having a new treadmill delivered today, after 18 years of pretty steady use our old one is just starting to fall apart. My husband is responsible for most of the use in the past year. I'm hoping the new, quieter, and stable treadmill will get me on track to start doing more regular exercise. I've lost this 40 pounds this past year by calorie counting only. I haven't really done any exercise to speak of and I know to stay healthy I need to build up my cardio health along with counting my calories.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hello everyone! I am excited to finally reach my goals in 2019 (claiming it!!) I’ve been at about a 6month plateau stuck in the 190s...a viscous cycle of lose gain lose gain. I am going to pay more attention to my nutrition, drink more water, and increase intensity of my workouts . Let’s do this!

01/07: 193.4 got the munchies last night, TOM is here and I ate 4 packs of fruit snacks, and alcohol w/ juice last night. But other than that I had a fantastic day and ate well. Sad that I wasted so many calories on fruit snacks but happy that I logged it! Next time I’ll remember to stop and log before I eat so many lol.

My goal for 2019 is to get into ONEderland. Changing my life.
SW: 245 (R63 starting 12/30/2018)
End R63: 245 (0 loss; lowest 244.4 & avg 244.7 over the 4 days)

Round 64 FIRST full 10 day round!
R64 my focus will be to not break my tracking streak since 12/28 and being active every day in some way shape or form! Get up out of the chair from work, reading or tv and MOVE! Goal is to reach 240-243 and make it stick.

01/03 - 244 - I guess yesterday’s bounce up was the fluke as I’m starting today’s round a pound lower! Rain and did not follow through with indoor bike.
01/04 - 244.4 - Yesterday reflection on the bump on the scale. Well deserved due to some choc cake and wine at bunco. Positive note. Stuck to raw veggies and lunchmeat at bunco to offset and tasted but did not eat the whole piece of cake! No exercise. Did not get up from chair during long day at work. Craved chips around 5 after work and gave in… tried carrots but then caved limiting the damage counting out the chips… slapping my own hand. 2 days back at work and again losing focus on exercise Wed & Thurs! This cannot continue!!! Prioritize yourself over work. Today’s challenge will be 1/2 day work then driving 7 hours today for a funeral tomorrow. Then turning around Saturday and driving home. Take clothes for the hotel gym.
01/05 - @ hotel no scale. Followed through with my commitment and went to the hotel fitness center at 6am! 45 min on a bike hoping that it will make up for any damage from mexican food the night before. The rest of today will be funeral, combined sit down lunch/dinner after funeral with the large family then driving back from Arkansas to Texas.
01/06 - 247 - hoping this is sodium and just not moving much over the past couple of days traveling. We’ll see. Today walking around boat show and eating mindfully. AND drinking water.
01/07 - 243.9 Wonderful to see that yesterday was the fluke that I suspected. Today’s mindset is to not sit all day … get moving. 11 day tracking food in MFP!

01/02 - 251.8 - 20# Milestone. End weight of R63. Start weight for R64.

01/03 - 253.8 - I'm sick and my BF is sick. Neither of us felt like cooking. I ate a lot of bread, oatmeal & oatbran yesterday that all tend to stick to me for a couple of days. Sick or not, I can eat! lol If I eat high protein/low carb today I should be back down tomorrow.
01/04 - 251.8
01/05 - 252.2

01/06 - 250.8 <<< new low for this attempt at weight loss. I did hit 248.8 last May (down from 274.2 in Jan/18) so I'm only 2 pounds away. I know it's not productive to think about where I could be right now had I stuck with it but I do kick myself for regaining most of it back (271.8) At the very least, it would've been better to stay and maintain the new low weight until I was ready to lose more. I'm determined to keep going this time!

If I "only" lost .2 pounds per day for the next 257 days, I'd reach my goal of 199 - ONEderland - on Sept 21st! How exciting!
Saying I'd like to lose .2 pounds per day of every round somehow seems more achievable than saying I'd like to lose 2 pounds per round. Or is that just me?

unc98mlc

I’m 42 and currently ~225. I’d like to lose 75lbs, maybe more. I tend to get overwhelmed when I think about how much I need to lose and then I give up as soon as the going gets tough. I struggle with consistency.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 - 223.4- I did a 30-min cardio video and stayed within my calories for the day.
01/04 - 222.2- awesome strength workout and decent eating day. 64oz water (most in a long while). No mindless eating (big for me). Stayed within my calories (eating some exercise calories)
01/05 - 222- I am so proud of myself. Today is my son’s birthday and last night we had his family dinner celebration. I exercised in the morning and ate super light all day to prepare for the big meal. I ate 1500 calories for dinner! 😱 But I didn’t eat all day and still eat that big of a meal, which is huge for me. I managed to stay under 1800 calories for the day (1580 is my goal). Also I exercised 5 days in a row this week.
01/06 - 221.6-yesterday was my son’s birthday and my friend and I took a small group to play Airsoft. The boys play a round then come back for a rest. So, my friend and I walked while they were out. It helped me get over 13,000 steps and my 6th consecutive day of exercise. Despite having chorizo for breakfast, just snacking for lunch, and pizza for dinner, I stayed under my calories for the day. I’m a teacher and today is the last day of break. Tomorrow is when the real challenge begins.
01/07 - 221.6- I ate okay all day but didn’t move much and didn’t drink all of my water. Still, no gain and I’m down 3.4lbs in a week so I’ll take it!

01/03 - 138.2 - 1347 - 2078
Back on track, finally, with food & exercise. I'm interested to see how long it takes to re-lose what I gained the past 40 days.

01/04 - 138.2 - 1540 - 2032
Average coming down, despite a piece of cranberry cobbler last night. Had to use those cranberries! On the plus side, I had my first of three sessions with a personal trainer yesterday and have a plan for the next month until I see her again, and I've been walking/biking every day and doing weights 3 times/week. We're supposed to get up to 48 this afternoon, hopefully with no rain, so I'm hoping to walk outdoors.

01/05 - 139 - 1686 - 1970
Ah, the mysteries of calories, exercise, averages, and weight. I walked and hour+ yesterday, happily outdoors as it was 58F! No idea why I bounced back up. I did bake some whole wheat applesauce carrot honey muffins last night, and I ate 1, but that was only 130. I have been slacking on veggies, so that may be part of it. Onward! Have a great weekend, all!

01/06 - 139.2 - 1612 - 1931
We had another beautiful day yesterday and I walked along the river for an hour. Temps are headed down, though, so I'll be back indoors - I'm a cold-weather weenie. This week I'm adding a stretch & flex and a yoga class to my routine.

01/07 - 137.6 - 1817 - 1907
Finally trending down a little. Today's the day I restart eating against inflammation. I'm aiming for lots of fish and veggies, and am cutting dairy, gluten, and added sugar for now. We shall see. Also, recommended reading -- Food Sanity by Dr. David Friedman. He looks at various eating styles -- paleo, keto, and more - and the research that supports or contradicts them. Useful info!

This is my second round. Trying to shed that stubborn last 10 pounds! Highest weight was 190 lbs. Lowest weight was 145 lbs. Current weight 165 lbs. Goal weight 155 lb. Have been exploring Keto the last 6 months. Now will aim to stay Keto for the next 5ish weeks and plan a 48 hour fast next week to see what autophagy looks like for me.

01/04 165.9 I had too much salt yesterday. I’m still learning to properly balance electrolytes while on ketosis. I’ll drink extra water today. It’ll be hard to avoid carbs today. I’m spending the afternoon and evening with my son’s family (grandchildren ♥️) so supper will be a challenge.
01/05 164.4 Still in ketosis this morning 😊 Rough night though. Woke up at 4 with irregular heartbeat and feeling faint. Potassium too low I think? Ate 1/4 cup of frozen chopped spinach. After an hour heartbeat was normal. Will be upping potassium rich keto foods for the next while. Bring on the avocados! Yum!
01/06 Struggling to get my potassium up. Still feeling off. Day off of weigh ins.
01/07 163.8 Feeling much better! I have to get better at that electrolyte piece of Keto. But the weight continues to go down! I’m going to try a 48 hour water fast starting after supper today. I’ll drink salted (sodium and potassium chloride) and fresh water as I feel the need. And not to waste the effort, over the 48 hours I’ll be focusing on prayer about my health.
