You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. Maxwell

My goal for 2019 is to get into ONEderland. Changing my life.
Plans:
- Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target 70k steps per week
- Drink more water (target min 64 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
- Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP)
- Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
- Drink less alcohol (4 AF days per week; ~16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

SW: 245 (12/28/2018)
R63: 245 (+/-0)
R64: 243.3 (-1.7)
R65: 241.6 (- 1.7)

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.
1/31 - 239.1 - Looks like the 30s are sticking! Salty chicken soup at the mexican restaurant yesterday and of course too many chips but otherwise a good day. Could have done better on the exercise.
2/1 - 237.7 - This is really working! Yesterday was my last day at work. Walked to the library to pick up a book 2.68 miles + rode indoor bike. Kept to my food plan. Today is first day of retirement! What to do? It’s the first of the month! Take my measurements and start making plans for Feb.

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.

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.
01/31 – 145 – Oh well, I stayed within calories yesterday, but I didn’t drink enough water and I had a lean pocket for lunch. It seems that when I eat processed foods, whether within calories or not, my body likes to retain water. I packed a healthier lunch today and will hopefully be down before the weekend.
02/01 – 144 – Back down again, yay! It was 9F degrees outside when I drove in to work this morning and it felt like a heat wave walking into my office. Although I have to work tomorrow, I hope everyone else has a good weekend! See you next round!

@Fraukazi – Have a wonderful holiday!

@Lilylady3k – Congratulations on your retirement!

trying to not let the back injury on 1/11 at work get to me


1/1 174


1/24 172.2 13 waters,10 min shoveling

1/25 172.2 14 waters, closer to calorie goal, retaining water still due to birthday celebrating that was days and my back injury

1/26 169.6 14 waters, within calorie goal, did some stretching, got enough potassium in, back improving

1/27 168.8 14 cups of water

1/28 168.6

1/29 not going to print out the weight today as there is a definite sodium and extra food inflation. Want to stay positive. May not put it in until it is better. Will drink more water tomorrow. Put a day together that is a let down day that is not IF, but in calories, so I can use when need a break. It is higher in sodium unless I can figure out how to do it better. Let's face it--I am around 800 mg a day in sodium daily and a couple 100 extra or more packs a serious inflation immediately, lol. I don't have this part down yet.....:). I did do some light, very light, snow shoveling. Tomorrow will be some more, but a bigger amount. My back is resisting some, so trying to go slow and easy. Needs to be done before work. Have to start early.

1/30 Didn't weigh. No time and didn't want to be possibly disappointed. Anyways did shovel for 40 minutes before work. Did great on calories. Drank a lot of water.

1/31 170 coming back down

@Winner_in_life - Good luck with stopping smoking.
We have snow today as well, (nearly a foot which is a lot of the SW of England) so no zumba or yoga classes; I will have to exercise at home!

01/24 198.6 Started IBIH soup diet yesterday. Usually go up a pound after day 1...so I'll take it!

01/25 197.6 1 pound down! I ate between 5 pm and 6:30 pm. Stuck strickly to the plan and drank lots of water.
13,000 steps. Just going to keep plugging along.

01/26 197.4 Well..at least it's going down, if only slightly. Had a rough day at work and had 2 glasses of wine last
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.
01/28 197.8 ugg...walked 6 miles yesterday and worked out with weights. My food was on track, but water was under. I'll just keep plugging on!
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!
01/31 195.8 Going down.....sloooooooowly.....
02/01 194.4 YAY! 4.4 lbs lost this round. I've never been a daily weigher, but plan on continuing the next round. Hope to keep this downward trend going.

01/23 208.2 fell of the wagon a bit last night, but I am back on and ready to go!
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!
01/31 204.4... I actually thought I was the same this morning... but .2 is .2 ! Kickboxing tonight, and hopefully a good night's sleep. Having some issues with that lately, and I know from experience that it affects my progress.
02/1 203.8 I have exceeded my goal! I worked really hard this round! Onederland is in sight, but I know it is a stretch to try and make it in the next round... but that will be my goal. Great job everyone!

That's a good one to keep handy, thanks @BethE238!

@Winner_in_Life It's easy to gain when we quit unless we find something to substitute that hand to mouth motion. My first few months I popped a whole lot of tic tacs and chewed a whole lotta gum. Been smoke free more than 10 years now. Definitely made it easier not to eat so much. Good luck friend!

Yayyyyy ~ stick with it @roscoe1998 !!! 💪💪💪

aaaahhhh @Lilylady3k what to do, what to do? The awesome luxury of my time is my own. I sure you're having a great day!! 🙏😃🙌 Enjoy retirement!

And CONGRATS to everyone (weighing everyday or not or losing weight or not) who finished just determined to keep trying to do better. What ever it is. We all deserve a pat on the back for that.

It's a Friday reminder happiness is an inside job ~ 😜 have a great weekend everyone.

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.

01/31 - 150.20lb + .80lb ????? I genuinely have no idea why......can only think its due to having ham with dinner last night and hence the salt ? But 0.8lb ???? Wow! I shall continue my quest and hope to see this off over the next few days as I know its not because of excess calories or macro's ...........

02/01 - 149.90 -0.3lb - so finished where I started - gggrrr! Don;t feel the scales reflect the last 10 days so going to have a think and change something for the next round - but I am not defeated. Keep picturing my summer holiday in my head!!

See you all in round 67!

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.
01/26 DNW
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
01/30 178.6
01/31 177.6 Yesterday was the first day in a while where I stuck to my meal plan and came in under goal on calories. Come to think of it yesterday was the first day in a while that I even had a meal plan. Made the chicken picatta last night and it was yummy!
02/01 177.6 It's been a roller coaster round for me, a roller coaster month, but I am ending the round with a loss of 1 lb. My kitchen reno is done and winter is half over and I haven't gotten sick and I haven't fallen on the ice so all is well. On to round 67.

1/23 - 174.2 - 33g carbs, 15g net carbs. Carbs were: salad, keto seed porridge.
1/24 - 173.6 - 57g carbs, 38g net carbs. Carbs were: multi grain tortilla chips 1oz, spaghetti squash, horseradish in tuna, tomatoes in turkey taco.
1/25 - 174.4 - 47g carbs, 38g net carbs. Carbs were: broccoli, cashews, cauliflower, carmelized onion dip, cranberry oatmeal cookie.
1/26 - 175 - 101g carbs, 93g net carbs. Carbs were: Cocoa mix, heavy whipping cream, cocoa powder, seasoned flour on fried chicken, croissant, spaghetti squash. I felt cold all day. I was hungry just before the start of my eating window, but didn't eat until the last hour. Spent the day helping my Niece prepare for my Grand Nephew's birthday party.
1/27 - 173.8 - 37g carbs, 32g net carbs. Carbs were: multi grain tortilla chips, guacamole, broccoli, vanilla wafers. Didn't make it to 1000 calories yesterday. Just wasn't hungry.
1/28 - 175.2- 32g carbs, 28g net carbs. Carbs were: cauliflower, seasoning on turkey wings, breading on chicken tender, raw pecans
1/29 - 176 (early weigh in) - 28g carbs, 22g net carbs. Carbs were: spinach, cashews, green beans.
1/30 - 174.4 - 57g carbs, 51g net carbs. Carbs were: horseradish in tuna, salad, multi grain crackers, oyster crackers, raspberries, whipped cream, 85% dark chocolate.

1/31 - 176.2 - I'll be glad when my cold weather carb loading is over! 132 carbs, 101g net carbs. Carbs were: Oyster crackers, PeppFarm mini dark choc chunk cookies (No, I am not fooled by the "mini" Still a lot of calories and carbs, but they're so crunchy!), keto seed porridge, was not the satisfying comfort food today, but homemade minestrone did the trick.

2/01 - 172.8 - 32g carbs, 22g net carbs. Carbs were: spinach, cream of asparagus soup, 1/2 mini naan. ▪174.9▪ was my average weight for January, so not too bad considering the carb eating. I'm pretty sure the asparagus soup helped me shed the fluid so quickly. It's nice to end the round at this number. ☺

Goal this round: finish at below 183.x

01/22 well I didn't weigh bc I was afraid to get on the scale after vacation, flying, and airport food!

01/23 186.8 only up one lb from vacation, so I consider it a win. I had a hard time getting back in the groove yesterday, I hope today will be easier. I did go to yoga which felt great after a long day of uncomfortable travel. Need to hydrate and veggies today. I already have some meals portioned out so that will make it easier.

01/24 185.8

01/25 185.8

01/26 186.6 stayed close to plan today. chose rice as my main grain for the day with my poke bowl, but only got 1/2 cup rice and the rest salad greens and had the left overs for dinner.

01/27 188.0 well hello, water weight!

01/28 186.8 almost gone. leg day at the gym.

01/29 186.8 so sore from yesterday! yoga to stretch it out.

01/30 187.2 still sitting here. my trend line is actually going up right now. Maybe tomorrow I can see a drop that will correct that. I did have a super hungry day yesterday probably because I've been hitting the gym hard, so that makes sticking to my plan a lot tougher. It's like the reptile brain turns on "must have FUEL!!!" but the choices I made were lean proteins and only 2 cookies. I also really wanted some wine with dinner, but turned that down too.Hope tomorrow is easier.

01/31 185.8 Finally back where I started. This round has been really tough weight wise and I'm not sure why? I have been putting more thought into my eating, being more careful, and planning ahead, and just seeing these fluctuations of the same 3 pounds is a total bummer. I do think that starting back in the gym causes me to hold water more, and also makes me want to eat a bit more so that is harder diet wise. I signed up for 8 sessions with a personal trainer to help me be more accountable and be a personal cheerleader so maybe that will help.

02/01 185.8 well this round was a wash. I am just hoping that my body is acclimating to more gym time and I'll see a good whoosh next round.

It was pretty emotional yesterday with it being my coworkers last day. I didn’t track my restaurant lunch or the cake and snacks but I’m sure everything was way over calories. Only saving grace really was that I was so full from lunch and wiped out from my day that I didn’t feel like cooking or eating dinner. Trying to get back on the horse today with a nice salad for lunch and dinner all planned out. At least I got to end the round on a good note weight wise, although I’m sure I’ll pay for yesterday in a couple of days.
