Female aged 47 based in the UK .
Start Weight on 1st Jan '19
Starting - 158.50lb
End R64 - 154.90lb - Round loss 3.6lb - Loss to date 3.60lb
End R65 - 149.90lb - Round loss 5.0lb - Loss to date 8.60lb
Hoping to carry on where I left off last round - aiming to lose a couple of pound this round and finish in the 147's.
01/22 - 149.90
01/23 - 149.4lb (-0.5) Happy with that to start the round off with and continues my pattern of lose for a few days, then a small gain then back to losing again (???). Aiming to be properly on track this week and totally focused as away over the weekend so meals out, hotel breakfasts plus a 5 hour car journey each way - will be a challenge but one I need to learn to handle better.
01/24 - 149.7 (+0.3) No logic to this other than a carb heavy dinner of risotto last night and TOM imminent (or not! All a bit hit and miss these days ). Not disheartened as still down on round starting weight and a good food day planned for today
01/25 - 149.8 (+0.1) Guessing this is TOM approaching as feeling bloated today and no reason for it based on my diet Not going to put me off track though as feeling very focused and determined at the minute. Weekend away now - have a plan in my head to stay as much on track as possible - just need to act on it now. Have a great weekend everyone
01/26 - DNW
01/27 - DNW
01/28 - DNW
01/29 - 150.0lb (+0.20) Not too bad considering had a weekend away with just a little indulgence and TOM arrived - back on track today and aiming to see my end weight for this round lower than where I started. No plans out of the ordinary for the week so no reason why these last few days shouldn't be good!
01/30 - 149.40lb (-0.6lb) Yay! Back on track and on a downward path again and half a pound from the start of the round. Every intention of keeping up this momentum and get a decent loss for the round.

Round 66: My focus is not breaking 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! Retiring Jan 31! Goal is to break into the next decade and make it stick.
1/23 - 240.9 - Last couple of days focused on water and staying within my calorie goal. Using Apple watch to remind me to get up from the desk chair and move each hour in addition to the daily walk.
1/24 - 239.6 - A new decade!!! Remember to never ever return to the 40s … you don’t like it there.
Recumbent bike indoors 20 min when raining. Frustrating day brother/sister inlaws ended with DH & I out for Italian & wine. Never a good thing but the food is tracked and now moving forward.
1/25 - 240.7 - I saw the 30s but it was touch and go! Work celebration and enjoyed chips & guac though no alcohol. Not enough water or exercise. Did walk down 6 flights of stairs at work instead of using elevator.
1/26 - No scale @ hotel. Planned hike 3 miles with my son & his Fiancee to Mount Bonnel then Bull Creek. Today’s total steps 14741! Always left half my food on plate at restaurants.
1/27 - No scale @ hotel. Walked with DH 3.5 miles to breakfast before long car ride.
1/28 - 239.1 - Got out of the 40s! Proud of my better eating & exercise habits when out of town dining out every meal this weekend! I was determined to leave the 40s behind for my official Monday WI.
1/29 - 239.1 - It stayed out of the 40s 2 days in a row!!! Frustrating day yesterday not getting out of my chair at work (last day with my computer for people to ask questions or obtain my files before retirement) and interactions with my sister in-law. Win is that I did not snack when stressed!
1/30 - 239.9 - Barely but still out of the 40s! A few walks each over a mile. Dining Out group and stuck to my preplanning. Tons of water. No snacking. Today's challenge is my work retirement party at a mexican restaurant ... deciding on my strategy.

01/24 207.8 movin' right along
01/25 206.2 It has been a SUPER stressful week, and I have stayed on track, even made it to kickboxing twice... Yay me! I am going out to dinner tonight, and will indulge, but am confident that it will not derail me. TGIF!
01/26 207.8 I own it! As I said yesterday, last night was a splurge, and it was yummy. My son is working on a health project, and keep hearing him use terms like"good foods" and "bad foods" I want him to understand that You can be healthy, and still enjoy some sliders and fries once in a while, and not feel guilty! Also, that you are in control of your choices. I want him to see that I did not "blow" it, and that today, will continue to my journey of making good choices, and moving more. Weight/Shmeight....I am feeling pretty good right now!
01/27 205.8 Yay! kickboxing today, and shopping for the week. That's right! I was not derailed!
01/28 206 This is ok... I just hope it will be down a little bit again tomorrow. Kickboxed yesterday, walked, and stayed in my calories, definitely did not drink enough water.
01/29 206.2 Harumph
01/30 204.6 That's better! May have a snow day tomorrow.... always a challenge for me!

1/23 - 202.5 (Did not track calories and steps)
1/24 - 205.1 - Reset button. Just a bad day. Bounce back today. That wake up to a 211 blood sugar will do that to you. Already did my 2.5 mile run on the treadmill this morning. It felt great!!! I will track every calorie today!
1/25 - 202.3 (1,700 calories, 11,538 steps) - Reset button worked. I was happy with the calorie number, but not happy with food choices. Need to do better. Very happy with the 2.5mile treadmill run. Let's get that again today. Good luck to everyone heading into the weekend!
1/26 - Did not forget to weigh-in, just avoided.
1/27 - 203.4 (Did not track calories and steps) - It does get frustrating seeing the back and forth of the scale, but i am super happy I am staying in the 200-205 quadrant. Goal is to get in that 195-200 quadrant and it will take time. Today will be a good day. Good luck to everyone on this beautiful Sunday!
1/28 - Did not weigh. Need to get back in my rhythm.
1/29 - 201.3 (Did not track calories, 11,519 steps) - Happy with the weight this morning. The darn dinner and night binge is my achilles heel. Need to conquer it! Looking to hit all goals today - track calories, 10,000 steps, and exercise. Already got the exercise with a 2.8 treadmill run. Good luck to everyone today. Let's finish this round strong!!!
1/30 - 203.2 (Did not track calories, 17,559 steps) The yo-yo between 201 and 203 continues. Need to track calories today because the dinner/night binge comes at me strong. Happy with my fitness yesterday. Let's get that food on track. Want to finish this round under!!!

I hit my “goal weight” around late November. I’ve managed to maintain around this weight since then. What I have realized though, is that I don’t think I would’ve been able to maintain without the daily accountability of this challenge. Thank you to @Grandmajackie and all of you contributors for the daily insights and commiseration. It makes all the difference in being successful at weight loss this time.End R40: 171 (-3)R66 SW: 145.5

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 - 145 – Back down again. I don’t have any real temptations (except for the full jar of candy bars at our office front desk) until this weekend. I’d like to drop a little before the weekend hits.
01/24 – 145 – I’ve done pretty well sticking to weight loss calories this week, so I’m hoping to see a little drop tomorrow.
01/25 – 145 – My husband and I have to grab carry out for supper tonight (we’re doing a lot of running around) so since I haven’t lost anything the past couple days, I’ll forego my favorite dish from the restaurant and order the healthier, lighter version.
01/26 – 144 – I’m a little surprised to see this because although I stayed within calories, we ate pretty late and I indulged in a shot of blackberry brandy to chase away the sub-zero wind chills we dealt with yesterday. @deepwoodslady and several others inspired me to shout a few dance tunes from the 80’s to my Alexa Echo and I danced around my kitchen for about 10 minutes while my husband showered. Maybe that’s what did it?
01/27– 144.5 – Today is my only day off and we have more running around to do today. Due to several issues going on right now, I’m going to do my best to stay within weight loss calories, but there will be a lot of eating on the run today.
01/28 – 145 – I made pretty good food choices yesterday, so the weekend fallout isn’t too bad compared to last week.
01/29 – 144 – I’m so glad to see this number on a Tuesday! I hope I can make it stick the rest of the week. I’ve been good avoiding all the tax season goodies that have come in the past week and are sitting on our lunch table. Here in NE Ohio we are preparing too for the -30 to -40 windchills over the next few days. I hope everyone else dealing with this stays safe!
01/30 – 144 – Holding steady. I had a very stressful event happen at work yesterday and my mind wandered to the jar of candy bars sitting on the front desk. Being mindful of the advice I’ve learned on this challenge, I told myself that a candy bar was not going to solve the issue and I really didn’t want it, I just wanted the distraction. So I took a long walk around the office instead. I will admit though, that I had a little extra wine after supper last night, but I kept it within my calories and it was worth it.

night. 13,000 steps logged yesterday. Going to do my HIT workout today and go for a 3 mile walk.
01/27 196.4 Going down...I like it! Did my 3 mile walk, but did not do my weights. Going to brunch with family. Will make smart choices.

01/29 197.6 NSV..yesterday was Teacher Appreciation day. I walked in to free Chcik fil a in the teacher's lounge, a cart of donuts wheeled to my classroom and a luncheon. I just had a half a chicken breast and some lettuce and veggies at the luncheon and resisted all of the other treats.
I kept tp my plan in the evening and walked 11,000 steps. Not much scale movement, but I'm sure it will come.
01/30 196.4 Hoping this downward trend will continue!

Day/Weight/Comment01/23 - 207.2 (2004 steps) I did NOT want to adult on Tuesday. I called off work and just slept. The eating that I did do wasn’t recorded or measured. No exercise. No meal prep. Meh! Hope to pick myself back up and restart for Wednesday.
01/24 – 207.7 (3459 steps) I got back on track Wednesday. I went back to work and did a TON of meal prep when I got home. I cooked 4 pork chops, 3 round steaks, a package of large shrimp, and a package of scallops for a total of 11 meals to cover me up and thru the weekend. Today is a NEW day!
01/25 – 203.6 (5573 steps) 17 minutes on bike (3.81 miles) – Thursday was an awesome day. I wasn’t hungry. I didn’t snack. Work was stressful to the MAX but I did not ease that stress by eating. I actually allowed myself to have a pint of Halo Top ice cream and still ended up wayyyyyyy under my daily MFP calorie goal! (The shrimp/couscous concoction that I had prepped the other night might have turned out to be an epic fail, but I’m new to actually cooking so I’ll keep trying.)
01/26 - 203.6 (6200 steps) 30 mins on bike (6.44 miles) Friday is family dinner night and we went to Benny’s Pizza (local favorite). I managed to stay in the green on my calories. Good day. Dog sitting over Saturday night for my cousin. Packed a couple meals and I’m all set.
01/27 DNW (9402 steps) Saturday is barn day. Spent 5 hours on the road traveling. I probably got a good 45 minutes of exercise riding Spark (the gelding that I’m leasing). It was COLD! I packed a meal for dinner here at my cousin’s house. I stayed with her 3 dogs overnight. Unfortunately, I gave into LNS since she had cheddar popcorn and frosted mini-wheats. No scale here at her house.
01/28 – 203.6 (3815) Sunday was a relaxing day. No exercise but I kept within my calorie goal, right up until I went to bed. I’m not usually one to really care about the ups and downs from day to day but, I’ll say it’s nice to have seen the same # since 1/25.
01/29 – 201.9 (7762 steps) 35 mins of bike (7.69 miles) I had another great day yesterday. I was under on my calorie goal! I have more meal prepping to do tonight and I’ll be set for another 7 meals. I think doing that has saved me more than anything. I usually do both pork chops and round steaks that I buy at Aldi and pair them with either veggies or Knorr Rice sides. Yogurt and protein powder drink for breakfast most days.
01/30 – 201.2 (6220) 40 mins on bike (8.45 miles) Tuesday was a good day, except my Buckeyes lost to TTUN in men’s basketball. We started preparing for FREEZING cold temps! I prepped another 4 meals for the week. I still have more to make. I just didn’t feel like doing more than I did. I saved enough calories to enjoy a piece of my Aunt Nyla’s homemade apple pie! Yummy! Onward and downward! Stay warm my friends. Wind-chill was -23F at 5:30am this morning.

Goals for this round 175.x and - track everything!
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 177.6
01/24 177.2
01/25 176.0 I suspect that is the end of the water woosh and things will slow down again now. I still don"t have a fridge or a stove but I have started getting the cupboards and small appliances organized. The cupboards are configured differently than before so it takes some trial and error, but it is very nice to have a new clean kitchen! I think that the first thing I will cook when I get my appliances in chicken picatta - I've never made it before but this seems like a good time to try new things.

01/27 177.6 I was basically AWOL yesterday, got my workout in but did not weigh or track. Got up stupidly early to get DS1 out the door for a tournament. In the afternoon I attended a memorial service for a dear friend, mass followed by a series of presentations followed by a reception followed by a party. Dinner was take out Chinese food. I expect some of this gain is sodium related. Back to kitchen unpacking today after I catch up on all the posts here.
01/28 179.0 No good reason, no extenuating circumstances - I just did not have my act together yesterday.
01/29 179.6 ditto

I usually measure in stone and just convert that to pounds for the site, however I’ll be switching my scale to pounds so I can get the oz reading each day.
01/22 – 132lb (pre-scale change)
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 -131.8 (Been 9st 6lb for a few days so don't know rate the oz's have dropped. Will be interesting to see)
01/24 -132.2 (Had quite a bit of salt yesterday, so may be water retention.)
01/25 -131.4 (That's better. So that would mean I'm 9st 5lb now right? Had real tasty food yesterday. Pork
tenderloin stuffed with garlic, kale, mushrooms and chorizo. Served with wild mushroom gravy and veggie mash, for lunch. Keto crème brûlée for desert. Then had a mini omelette (mushroom, bacon, bell pepper) with guacamole for dinner. Satisfying day )
01/26 -131.4 (Had a nice massage yesterday. Late birthday treat. They had a lot of sugary snacks on hand in the waiting area. Biscuits being offered, chocolates on the table, gummy sweets to the side; It was a challenge to resist free offerings. Then when I had a cup of tea, 2 little biscuits with dark chocolate and coconut covering were served beside it. Warred with myself for 5mins before I ended up having them. After searching for them online, 2 of them come to 7g carbs. So much for such small biscuits. But I was able to resit asking for more or going 'oh well might as well splurge now and have that chocolate too'. I managed to keep to my carb limits for the day.)
01/27 - 130.8 (Surprising, considering I snacked on some nuts late last night. Stressful time with my 6 months old nephew as he has a cold and wouldn't stay asleep for long. Sister out for the night with friends. )
01/28 -130.6
01/29 - 129(Don't know how it dropped that much haha. Doubt it will stick.)
01/30 – 129 (So it did stick. Making a lasagne with keto pasta and garlic bread today. Done the lasagne before, the bread is a first- but not first bread recipe. Side of baby spinach. I planned it for this day as there will be leftovers for my mother to have on Friday. I’m going out with a friend to see the latest ‘how to train your dragon’ movie. So excited. )

Woman, Age 47, 5'6", Celiac disease
OSW: 252
Round 66 SW: 214.6
01/23—216.8— Not an unexpected bump. I'm back to retaining water, have some digestive funkiness, and TOM looms. I didn't get 45 to continue to the next round of my push ups challenge, but I'm stoked because I got to 40. (42 if I count the two terrible ones at the end where I lost my form and nearly faceplanted.) So I went from 31 to 40 in ten days. Progress!
01/24—215.8—Had a lot of guesswork in my calories yesterday. I estimated high but lunch was plain chicken breast on plain salad. (I hate conference food!) Today will be more sedentary than yesterday, so I'll need to be mindful and keep moving.
01/25—216.6—TOM and non-ideal eating. Boo. I ate back all of my exercise calories, which I don't tend to like to do. I don't feel great, but I don't feel terrible either, which is a win!
01/26—217—This was after drinking a couple of glasses of water.
01/27—215.8—Late weigh-in. I felt really awful this morning so I went back to bed.
01/28—216.2—Rocky weekend for how I was feeling, but I ate well and got in a lot of moderate exercise minutes. I don't work for the US federal government, but a lot of my work is in reaction to what the federal government does, so it's possible this will be a real sprint of a week as the end of the shutdown might mean a ton of new things to respond to. Whee!
01/29—216.2—Still retaining some water. Yesterday was very quiet at work, which makes me nervous! I'm wearing pants today that gave me a muffin top the last time I was this weight (actually, I was a little lighter). No muffin top now! So things are shifting around. Continuing the push ups and Butt & Gut challenges. And I'm now in the habit of long stretches of medium intensity cardio. Not for weight loss but for cardiovascular fitness.
01/30—216.2—This number looks familiar! I had a very good eating day yesterday and experimented with microwave keto bread (I'm not using keto, but it was a gf recipe and easy). Not too bad! Getting slammed at work, as expected, so I have to try to be very conscious of moving often and drinking enough.

I was over calorie goal, but I think still in a deficit. Still, it's high in salt, so I might pay for this tomorrow instead.
Oh my goodness, @euronorris, I'm so sorry that happened. Most people are really nice and then you encounter a stinker.8 -

Thanks @puttyputty It was horrid. Everyone else in the office is lovely, and that particular guy is nice most of the time, but he has no filter and zero empathy. It's not the first time he's said something nasty (not just to me), and I doubt it'll be the last!
Oh well. I feel better about it all this morning, and avoided having a massive binge last night, so damage was limited.
