R65: 200.8–200.6 (-0.2lbs)
R66: 200.6-194.8 (-6.0lbs )
Round 67 goals:
📉 Get to 191.8lbs or under, which is “overweight” BMI for me, instead of my current “obese class I”
💧100+ ounces of water daily
🥣 Stay around my 1200 calorie limit days I am home, and at least under maintenance while I am away
🤸🏼♂️ 1hr dedicated exercise every day I am home
🧘🏼♀️ Meditate 10 mins everyday
🥂 Limited alcohol (for my birthday and conference)
🔥 3k daily calorie burn according to Fitbit
👣 15k+ steps a day
R67: SW 194.8 GW 191.8
2/2: 194.2 - hit all my goals, was way under calories, busy day.
2/3: 195 -🥂🎂 today starts my last year in my 30s. Would love to be 140lbs and fit by this day next year. Went out to dinner last night to celebrate and had a martini and a beer, but made good food choices otherwise. About to head to the gym. Having grilled steak and veggies for dinner with family at home tonight, and chocolate cake, mmm.
2/4: 194.6 - Hit all my goals yesterday. Got to sleep in, played in the snow with the kids for 2+ hours, enjoyed my birthday dinner and cake - it was a good day.
2/5: 194.2 - Snow is really messing with my mojo. Kids didn’t have school yesterday, gym closed, and both won’t be open again today. Our power went out yesterday AM, and our furnace busted when it came back on - no heat from 9am-5pm 🥶 <— actual photo of me. Ate under calories and didn’t have drinks, but those are the only goals I met.

About me: 62, 5'7", hit maintenance in March 2018 and, typical yoyo, currently bouncing back up over original goal weight of 130. Want to get back to 127-128.
Crept back to JGM10D quietly and somewhat inconsistently in Round 60 but now I am back (for reals!)
2/2 - 132.8 - yesterday just under maintenance calories, 7500 steps.
2/3 - 132.8 - yesterday under my calories for modest loss goal (1/2 lb a week), 7700 steps.
2/4 - 133.8 - overate yesterday, got too hungry then had trouble STOPPING when I ate, then the day was kindof out the window. About 250 cals over maintenance. 7000 steps. Woke up at 3 this morning and didn't sleep much after that, I am trying to tell myself I can be really productive at work today anyway ... Right?
2/5 - 133.2 - yesterday under calories, 6000 steps. Slept well.

I 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 have been participating in this challenge since Round 40 My average loss/gain since Round 40 to 63 is a 0.5lb loss each round. This was better than I expected!

Allrecipes~Mushroom Bok Choy Soup
Stacey Homemaker~Bok Choy Mushroom Barley Soup
These are two recipes I looked at after deciding what I would put in my soup. I don't cook using recipes. I made this soup with vegetables I needed to use up. When I make it again, I will use 1 cup each of radish and carrot slices and a lot more bok choy. I did not need to add water.
8 ozs baby bella mushrooms, cleaned, sliced thinly
9 baby bok choy, washed, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 large carrot, cut into thin shavings with mandoline or vegetable peeler
2 large red radishes, cut in thin slices
1 32 oz box chicken bone broth (or vegetable broth)
8 ozs chicken stock
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
1 medium sweet onion, medium dice
1 clove minced garlic
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes, approximate, to your taste, I really just shake some in
2 tsps celtic sea salt, approximate, to taste
Ground white pepper, to your taste
1 tsp ground ginger, approximate
1 tsp garlic powder, approximate
1 TBS sesame oil
1.5 TBS avocado oil
1TBS unsalted butter
Saute, onion, garlic and mushrooms in avocado oil until onion is translucent. Add sesame oil, grated ginger, carrot, radish, and bok choy, salt, pepper, garlic powder and ground ginger. Add 8 ozs chicken stock. Simmer until bok choy wilts. Add red pepper flakes. Add 32 ozs chicken bone broth. Bring to full boil, then reduce heat to low, add butter. Cook for 5 -10 minutes.

You were stuck in the house, with kids and no power - then no furnace? I say staying under calories and not drinking is a miracle We're with you in spirit. 10 -

02/05. 227.4. I was more careful with weighing and it paid off. I saved a couple hundred calories yesterday for a
dessert, but at the end of the day, decided I would rather see a scale drop and didn’t eat it!

02/02 141.4 night at the in laws and I tried to eat as little of what they dished out as possible (with success) but it was so high in calories and such little food, found myself starving. To make matters worse my man was hungry when we got home too and wanted Chinese food (we usually have Chinese once a year but some how managed to have it twice in the past week) I decided to order with him but only a steamed, veggie side platter. So although that is a NSV for me, as I am sure like many of you, its a weakness for me to order that food, smell it and see it without indulging, i am still sure it was salty, hence the small gain.
02/03 no weigh in. Last night was my little cousins bday party and I will be honest, I didn't attempt to stop myself or log my food. This particular cousins family serves delicious food and they bake the most amazing desserts (she is a professional baker) and I know when I go to parties she is catering, there is no way I am turning it down. It's high quality and expensive food and I would have really been missing out not eating what she doled out. I know I am not supposed to see food like that but it is only twice a year I get her delicious desserts so YOLO. We will see how that is reflected in tomorrow's weigh in, regardless of how good I have been today
02/04 143.2 between super bowl and my cousins birthday, i didn't stand a chance. I was fine for the majority of the day but as the night wore on, my temptation heightened. I gave in and ate nachos and some Reese peanut butter cups. I am going to need to start being more diligent on weekends again, they are beginning to become a struggle and lately are the reason for my up ticks. I don't think I have had a strict weekend since Christmas.
02/05 143.2 feeling bloated today. I worked out yesterday and restarted my insanity program, which usually jump starts my weight loss. Why I didn't loose, I don't know but I am assuming this weekend's salt and goodies did damage my progress more than I thought. I ate well, got in 1.6 liters of water and worked out good. I am hoping for a change tomorrow.

Ate under calories and didn’t have drinks, but those are the only goals I met.
You were stuck in the house, with kids and now power and then no furnace? I say staying under calories and not drinking is a miracle We're with you in spirit.
😆 haha, thanks! To be fair, I didn’t want to open the fridge most of the day, to preserve the food inside while the power was out, so that helped keep calories down a lot. But 4 and 6 year old boy energy is no joke, even under the best of circumstances. I have only told my husband he needed to come home from work once since having kids (the other time was when my then 2 year old threw a fork at me and it stuck in my head like some sort of freakish cartoon,) but I made him come home yesterday to deal with the furnace people, because I just couldn’t with the kids and no power and being so cold yesterday.13 -

Round 66 EW: 220.4 (-2)
Goals for R67: drink my water, close my circles, > 10K steps daily, journal my food
Day/Weight/Comment:
02/02 219.8 drank my water, closed my circles, > 13k steps. Off to a good start! In January, I didn’t really change my food, but I did drop alcohol for #dryjanuary and added in exercise. I wanted to try and incorporate small changes along the way that I could sustain. This month I will really start tracking food, and being aware of making better choices. 🤞🏻
02/03 219.6 drank my water, closed my circles, only 8K steps as I was in the car most of the day. About to go walk now, but is anyone else worried about overeating/drinking at the Superbowl parties? Thinking I need to plan for the number to go up some the next few days.
02/04 . 220.4 drank my water, closed my circles, 10K steps...but the Superbowl was so booooring that I ate my way right through it! Back on it today!
02/05 220.2 drank my water, closed my circles, 12.7K steps. Hoping to see a nice downward slide soon!

]02/02 - 328.8 - It was gain, but fluctuations happen.
02/03 - 327.4 - I'm happy with this. It's less than where I was a week ago.
02/04 - 327.2 - Woohoo. Inching down. Every little bit counts. I didn't do my strength training yesterday, but I did do an episode of Zombies, Run!
02/05 - 326.0 - Woot wasn’t expecting this big of a drop as I didn’t get as much exercise in as per usual. Looks like my body needed the day off.

27th Round for me: Female 65, height 5’
Goal this round: To get out of the 160’s or at least consistently not above 160. Right now even ½ lb. per round would seem great. This is the same goal as last round. Was feeling discouraged until I looked at a year ago and realized that I’m only down 4 lb. but I have established a “new normal.” I’m at the upper range of that the beginning of this round. Before starting at the gym and then joining this group, I was gaining about 5 lb. a year. So all my changes have me close to the 150’s instead of into the 170’s.
Ultimate Goal Weight – 128; Hoping to be under 140 by end of June. (Not sure if this is possible for me but even well down in the 150’s would be better than where I am at now.)Round 39 (1st for me) – SW 163, -.2Round 67 – 162.8

Popped up a lb. at the beginning of last round and ended up in the same place. Not sure why the beginning of a round there is often a jump. Anyway, I use the last day of the last round as my start weight.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 – 162.4 – Gym yesterday, nice to get in a good workout. It’s a year since I started at the gym and even with 2-3 times a week has made a huge difference in how I feel and, I think, look. Planning to take measurements later today.
02/03 – 163 – Have been unusually good about the cals., so was expecting to go down.
02/04 – 162.8 – A little LNS last night but managed to stop at a couple of cookies. Off to the gym today.
02/05 – 162.6 – Good workout yesterday. Will try out the treadmill, that we have been “storing” for our daughter for years, at home today. Hubby uses it regularly. I tried one at the gym when I first went but couldn’t seem to get the rhythm. I prefer walking outside but it’s icy and we have very steep streets.

Ending Weight Round 66: 153
02/02 152.6
02/03 151.6
Last night I was looking through photos on phone. Wow, am I thinner than 15 months ago. I checked my weight back then, and I can’t believe I’m 40lbs down.
But the really amazing part was looking at photos from May 2018. I look so much leaner. Again, I checked, and I’m about 20lbs down. This is notable because my Inner Critic has been saying “See, you’ve barely lost anything since April.” NOT!! I look - and feel - light years better. Kicks that voice to the door!
Then I decided to take my
Measurements - basically ALL of them. LOL
Measured waist holding it in & natural, for example. Amazingly, my hips have gotten smaller. I guess muscle does take up
Less space! If someone had told me this was even possible, I would have said “no way.”
Very happy. If you are mid-weight loss journey, I beg you to keep going. You will not believe how much better you will feel - and look. My goal all along was to lose enough that I felt good about myself and would be willing to fight to maintain it.
It will likely take another 5-10 lbs, but I’m not giving up. I’d like a 30 inch waist. After seeing my hips shrink smaller than I could have ever imagined, I’m beginning to my believe waist will actually trim down too.😇

@MadisonMolly2017 I really like your GLAD journaling. I don't journal but I do reflect on my day using a very old tradition. I look for the desolations and consolations in my day and particularly in my actions/choices and make a resolve for tomorrow. I have let that fall by the wayside lately, I really should get back to it.

Round 66 SW 162.6 EW 160.6 (- 2.0)

Reach the 158 number
Exercise 405 minutes during the challenge
Drink at least 64 oz of water a day
Walk 100,000 steps during the challenge
Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 160.8 Didn’t get much sleep yesterday since we had major wind storms and the dog was not having it! I am hoping to rest up a bit this afternoon. I have a basic strength class later today, and then going out to dinner with friends before we go to a ballet performance.
Steps 6974, 70 minutes of exercise, 66 oz of water
02/03 160.5 Had a wonderful night last night, but whenever I take an afternoon nap I find it so difficult to fall asleep. I managed to have 5 hours of tossing and turning sleep, so just going to try to stay awake all day so can sleep throughout the night.
Steps 8694, 45 minutes of exercise, 46 oz of water
02/04 159.8 I drank and ate more than I should have yesterday so will be limiting alcohol to 1-2 drinks this coming week and will be strict on meal planning to not lose my progress so far. Having said that, it was nice not worrying about tracking everything once in a while!
Steps 1990, 0 minutes of exercise, 73 oz of water.
02/05 161.0 Expected this number with how I ate on Sunday and how busy yesterday was at work. I wasn't able to get to the gym or leave the office much. Hopefully today will be less busy and will be back down by the end of the week.

Sounds like a great practice- thank you!
Yes, turns out I’m thinking of the GLAD as I fall asleep, not writing them down! 😄3 -
@deepwoodslady Donna, hugs to you!
@puddlegoober I’m so happy you’re back! I look forward to meeting you in Long Beach!
This wind is making me crazy. I’m so on edge that I took my anti-anxiety med last night and am thinking about more today. I’m having a hard time comprehending what I’m reading. And I want a nap!4 -

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.
2/1 128.0
———
2/2 128.5 Yesterday I felt irritated-don’t know why. I wanted “something” but have no idea what. I was under on carbs and 2g below protein. I have my carbs set to 15g total and without having any idea about that or my eating, someone in a Keto FB group started counseling me on how to get my weight to “start dropping” again! It was strange. I think I’ve got this Keto thing down after 18.5 months and being minus 46#. Some people! It’s raining in Las Vegas again. Not much but it’s damp outside.
2/3 129.0. Weird day yesterday. We were hungry but nothing sounded good. Finally tried a new to us Chinese place. It was good and we have tons of leftovers! Picked up neighbors at the airport last night. Flight was due at 6PM but weather delays caused it to arrive at 10PM. They had traveled from The Gambia and been awake for 48 hours! Meeting friends at 1:30 for lunch as one of our group is flying in from Kentucky for work here this week.
2/4 129.5 Shared “shareable” meatballs (4 small meatballs aren’t very shareable) and a large Greek salad with DD at lunch yesterday. It was overpriced and under good!

Last day of this round I will be on a plane leaving for our 6 day vacation. No Kids, no animals, just my DH and I. So that means I have 10 days to do my best work and stay on track so that I can have fun and not stress about the scale while I am away. Round 67 here we go!
End of Rnd 66:147.6 which is a new low for me (Avg 10 day was 149.56)
Goal 146.xx and get my Avg 10 day lower
02/02 - 148.5 up a little today. Had a couple of beers last night to celebrate my son getting into the college he wanted. So I expected a little bit of an up tick. Have to get up early and do some cleaning and then get some shopping done. We will see how it goes.
02/03 - 151.1 up some more. Again expected. This weekend we have had lots of eating out and lots of celebrations. Going to try and do better today and not let myself continue to go downhill.
02/04 - 153.7 UUUGGGHH!!! I didn't eat terrible yesterday, but it wasn't great either and we drank a lot (BEER) at a Super Bowl party. I am extremely dehydrated this morning and I know I didn't drink any water after noon yesterday. 6 pound gain in 2 days. It will be gone by Wed, so not going to freak out. This weekend I am going to try and change things up a bit. I think it is the beer that I drink that makes me gain so much. I am not drinking at all Monday- Friday. I only drink on the weekend and I always gain a ton of water weight. At least 4-6 pounds. It's my sons 18th birthday on Saturday and we are having a big family party so that should keep me busy and then Sunday I will be getting ready to leave on vacation. I will be in Vegas for a week so I want to see if it really is the beer that makes me retain so much fluid.
02/05 - 153.7 Did not do any better yesterday, just could not get on track. I ate fast food for breakfast and lunch. I can not tell you the last time I have done that. I think I have already decided I am not going to worry about it since we will be on vacation all next week. I watched everything I ate so close last year and am down 35 lbs. for that effort. Honestly I wasn't even going to post today, but decided I was not giving up and I had 6 days left until we left. I want to be back in 140's before we leave, which is doable. I am just having a really hard time this year staying the course I guess. I am not making any of my goals and can not seem to focus. I need to get my will power back in check and do what I know I need to do. So today I am doing what I need to do!
