Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 138.2 lb. Nothing lost nothing gained. I'm happy 😊
02/23 137.6 lb. I am loving this new life I'm building. I have been so sore since starting to incorporate jogging but I still keep my body moving. Yesterday I did the 5K in 43 minutes and although that is pretty slow for 3.1 miles (I did a lot of walking), I can only go up from here! My friend and I are going to sign up for a timed 5K in a couple months and I'm also thinking of doing Bay to Breakers! 🌉 We'll see!
02/24 136.6 lbs. Yesterday was kind of crazy, I was out of the house all day and I knew I had dinner plans with my family so I decided to save up most of my calories for that. But what I ended up doing was compensating with lots of cafinated drinks and I didn't drink much water. At the end of the day I think I didn't eat enough and the caffiene's diuretic effects have led me to lose a lot of water weight. So I'll probably be back up tomorrow once I replenish my fluids.
02/25 137.2 lbs. Now this is a much more realistic number to reflect my diet and exercise over the weekend. 👍
02/26 135.4 lbs. Feeling terrible. I got poison oak from my hike last week and I'm sick with a cold. I haven't been eating enough or drinking enough. Been going to sleep early because the benedryl makes me so sleepy and the itching is unbearable without it. I'm not pleased with this loss because I know I'm not taking care of myself. I am going to buy some homemade chicken noodle soup today from the Nugget. I hope that helps.

Hi-I’m Karen
Sept. 2018 OSW 187 (My Round #1)
UGW 135.....yes, 135!
2/22-166-I leave my dad today, after taking care of him and his new knee. After the weekend, will go to where my husband and I are going to live. I look forward to living with my husband and getting to walk up and down the long paved driveway there, where we will be living (waiting for the house to be built).
2/23-166-Yesterday before I left my dad’s house, I rode 20 last miles on his bike. My legs were sore the rest of the day and that felt good. Today we will go help set up and work at a fundraiser that will have heavy food, lots of drinks and it will be a late night.
2/24-169-Heavy food and a late night. I need to drink lots of water and no alcohol. Hopefully I can get a walk in later. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everybody!!!
2/25-169-That’s OK after long hours and n the car and quick heavy dinner. We made it to our new temporary housing while our house is being built. It is great because there is a long paved driveway and I can walk the dogs every day.😊
2/26 -164-yipee! Signs of the weekend are finally gone. I walked 4 miles fast yesterday, and logged my food & drank water.
I am glad all of you are here! I love reading all of your posts while I drink my coffee in the morning. ☕️🌷17 -
Spring is a few weeks away. The birds have been chirping and trilling bright and early every morning now for a month!13

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!

02/22 176.4 Woosh! great way to start the round. Have some DOMS today from yesterdays work out so I will try to get some walking in today, despite the grey rainy weather. The days are getting longer if not yet brighter.
02/23 176.8
02/24 176.0
02/25 177.4 The wind storm we are having is making me anxious and keeping me indoors. Anxiety eating yesterday but able to keep it at maintenance cals.
02/26 179 Felt like cr@p, ate like cr@p. Ate like cr@p, felt like cr@p. Did not log after noon, but definitely way over on carbs and cals. I am taking today off work - hopefully some extra rest will help me get back on track. Really need to learn my lesson - comfort carbs backfire in so many ways.

Yesterday I ate healthy and took my dog for a couple walks and even did calisthenics with my kids! I love doing YouTube video workouts! We did this seven minute workout that I do about 2-4 times a week:

02/26-359 Ok so that's a little better, not as much as I would have hoped, but maybe the next few days will show a little more loss from the water retention. I added a few more steps yesterday. I did add a little season salt to the burgers I made last night, but other than that I avoided adding salt to my food.

Round 69
Please join us! Starting on 02/22 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 69
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.

02/23 149.8 ~ (Steps 13,942) I realize the challenge don’t actually start till tomorrow but I need to get a grip on things here. My husband and I decided to take a drive to visit the biggest book store in the States here. We only live a couple hours away so it was a nice drive plus we stopped for lunch. Unfortunately my weight has gone up these last few days. On the bright side there’s only one way to go noe, lol. I do have fantastic news within the next week, my husband will be starting his new job, yessssssssss. This means I can get a routine back, yesss yesss yesss.
02/22 148.8 ~ (Steps 19,696) ~ Yesterday was a successful day in NLS, this will be my number one focus on achieving for my weight to drop. Today I’m hoping to get a pool session in,
02/23 148.1 ~ (Steps 12,978) ~ I was about to get a pool session in plus a wonderful workout at the gym, hopefully today will be a repeat. Of course, now not getting enough sleep isn’t helping. Within the next few days that should be getting back to normal too, 👍🏼
02/24 148 ~ (Steps 12,366) ~ Not the healthiest food choices yesterday, unfortunately. On the bright side I was able to get a good nights sleep in,
02/25 147.1 ~ (Steps 18,136) ~ Even though during the day it was hectic, I didn’t turn to food yay! I ended up taking a wonderful relaxing walking after dinner, which helped with late night snacking. My husband came home with Girl Scout cookies. They went in the freezer, out of sight out of mind, lol.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 299.6 Not sure if this will stay or not since I didn’t get enough calories yesterday. I do have a bunch of cleaning to do today though so maybe the added exercise will help.
02/23 298.2 So yesterday I had a lot to clean since I had a realtor coming over to see my house. I ate a small breakfast but I missed lunch. After that I went to my grandma’s house and they ended up ordering pizza for dinner. I made sure to add it to my diary and keep it under my calorie goal which wasn’t too hard given that I had a light breakfast and missed lunch. It wasn’t a perfect day but what day is? I figured the sodium would get me though. Pleasantly surprised this morning
02/24 298.0 Small loss from yesterday. I’ll take it. It was a very lazy day. Didn’t really have anything to do and it was very rainy so we stayed home most of the day. I also had a really bad headache so I just took it easy.
02/25 297.6 Down 0.4lbs from yesterday. Not bad! Had pretty bad cravings yesterday (must avoid travel food videos!) but I managed to stay strong and come in under calorie goal despite opening the fridge 400 times.
02/26 297.0 Moving right along! Yesterday was uneventful. I didn’t get enough veggies in but stayed under calorie goal. I also meal prepped a little so I will have something quick to grab for lunch or dinner. Today is the end of my second week. I lost 4.8lbs this week putting me at a total loss of 16.8 in two weeks! Not to shabby!

02/22 - 153.2 I think I'm back down to my start weight. I have my meals and snacks prepped, so I should be able to make good choices. We have a breakfast potluck, and I brought bagels - not my favorite flavor (pumpernickel) so I won't be tempted. I had my eggs and oatmeal.
02/23 - 154.2 Not surprised. I did have one bagel, but I also didn't do well with my water intake. Today I had a great workout with my personal trainer. I'm working on strengthening my shoulder as I gain more mobility.
02/24 - 153.2 My goal for today is to drink 64 oz of water. Gotta do this. I'll be tied to my desk all day grading assignments.
02/25 - 153.6

02/22 188.0 well this is not too exciting. I am sure it is salt and water bc there is no way I ate 14,000 extra calories while in London for 3 days. We averaged 7.5 miles per day walking while we were there, too! Drinking extra water today.
02/23 187.8 Still hanging on. Mentally I'm having a hard time getting back into watching my food intake. On the last travel day of my trip I found myself wanting to eat all of the things I normally avoid (potato chips, ice cream, pizza) sort of like I "deserved" it bc I was on vacation? Self sabotaging is what it feels like now. I don't really know how to stop those sort of feelings. Then when I got home, I wanted to continue to eat comfort foods, because I was tired and jet lagged. Healthy choices seemed unappealing and gross. Now today I have my trainer appointment and I feel embarrassed to get on the scale at the gym
02/24 186.4 some water weight finally leaving! My trainer was nice and said I didn't have to get on the scale and we could wait til next week. Also had a really strong workout, went up on a bunch of my lifts, probably due to lots of calories in the bank. Hopefully tomorrow will continue the trend. Drinking water, working on getting all my steps today.
02/25 187.6 Kinda surprised to see this number on the scale. Made my workout tonight, I did go over my calories but not by much. Cardio 45 minutes.
02/26 186.6 down again. Surprised more of this weight hasn't dropped off by now but I'm sticking to the plan. Maybe I still have a chance to make my goal for this round. Got my workout in today and logging all my food.

I’ve been bopping around in the low 160’s for months. Last round I worked on getting my head in a different space as far as eating (trying to look at portions as I would have in my 20’s – i.e. much smaller is plenty) and upping my exercise. My gym exercise is about the same but I’m trying to not allow myself to just sit doing crafts, computer or reading without breaking it up with some movement.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 – 161.8 -
02/23 – 162 – Good day yesterday for sticking with financial stuff that had to get done but ended up not moving as much as planned. Kept within cals. though and logged.
02/24 – 162 – Got in some home exercise but only about 20 min.
02/25 – 161.6 – Did not track cals. but think they were pretty good. No movement except for grocery shopping. Then did some online shopping for a pattern book, out of print a few years ago, and found it at a decent price – dithered & looked some more – you never know if you’ll find it at some library sale for $.50 or if this is your last chance to get it. Finally bought it because I want to make the pattern on the cover, although the exchange from USD to CAD is awful, and realized it’s 1 a.m.! But I got so caught up in my looking that no LNS and went to bed a little hungry.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 -213.6 Not surprised about increase since I weight lifted yesterday, the trainer has already increased the intensity on some of the training we are doing. Went to nutritionist and she said I can incorporate eggs into my diet!!! I am so excited, but there is a process on how to incorporate the eggs, so I am going to have to plan when I eat the eggs. She also said that over the next 4 weeks I can incorporate a couple of the other foods that I'm not too sensitive to see how they affect me. Who knew I would be so excited about eggs.
02/23 -213.6 Didn't drink a lot of water yesterday and ate way too much for dinner, but I had a great sleep. Went to the gym to do my training this morning, it was the first time I worked out by myself since I started working with my trainer. It's funny how much my trainer's voice was in my ear as I was working out. I'm going to run some errands and then off to the symphony tonight.
02/24 -213.4
02/25 -214.7 Forgot to post yesterday because I woke up late and had to rush to get my run in before my husband and I drove over to see the in-laws. I successfully finished W5D3, which is the 20 minute run, and I felt great. Then we drove 1 1/2 hours to get to the in-laws and I barely drank any water yesterday. I did incorporate eggs into my diet for the first time in over 3 months, so now I am supposed to wait and see if I have any reactions over the next 72 hours, so far so good. It's sunny outside, the first time in a couple of days, and my first thought, even though today is not my run day, is that it would be a great day to go for a run...I think I may just go ahead and go for a run. 
02/26 -213.6 Didn't go for a run yesterday. Personal trainer tonight.

Took a 10 day hiatus from tracking and logging. Gained a total of 12 pounds in those 10 days! I weighed 147.7 before leaving on vacation and came back and weighted 159.9. I almost cried, but I didn't. I knew it was mostly water weight and carbs and it should come off fairly quickly. I am not setting any goals for this round except to get back to 147.xx. The last couple of weeks have been extremely stressful, fun, amazing, exciting, and scary all wrapped up in to 1 box. Vacation was amazing, but my older kids had stuff going on at home that we were having to deal with so it made things a lot more hectic this year. I'm ready to get back down and start losing again. 10 days! 10 days!
02/22 - 151.2 so I'm still going in the right direction. I have lost 8.7 pounds since Monday. I have another 3.5 to go just to get back to where I was 2 weeks ago. Hopefully this weekend I can stay strong and on track. I would like to be back in the 140's by Monday, but of course this weekend is jam packed with all kinds of stuff to do. Fingers crossed I will make wise and healthy choices.
02/23 - 151.2 same which is good and I will take it. LNS got to me last night. Ate a couple of mini sized butterfingers. So I’m glad I stayed the same.
02/24 - 152.5 up a bit. Did really well yesterday. I don’t know why I’m up. Probably a late reaction from the night before. Have a family lunch today and more laundry. We will see where I end up tomorrow.
02/25 - 155.5 I am over February! I know why there was an uptick yesterday and today now. My TOM decided to show up today. Because of the type of birth control I am on it just shows up once every 3 or 4 months and 3-4 pounds of bloat always come with it. I think this will be the first month I end gaining versus losing. That didn't even happen in November or December. I was still up 4 pounds from my vacation and now I just added another 4 for TOM. So I am back to +8 pounds for this month. All I can do is continue to try. I do not think I will be back down in 3 days for the end of this month, but I can start working on March. I think I am a little more frustrated than usual because my emotions are all over the place. Doing good so far today, so I'm taking that as a win and hoping I go down a bit tomorrow. Although usually I hang out with the bloat weight for at least the first half of this week.
02/26 - 153.3 and we continue the yo-yo that is my weight. At least it went down. About 5.5 pounds left of my bloat vacation and TOM extra weight to get rid of. Would love to be back in the 140's by then end of this round and then the next one finally try to start loosing again. I have 2 months to lose 7-8 pounds which is completely doable. On track for today so far and hoping to continue going down.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 - 156.3, went to a basketball game yesterday night and had a couple of beers so preparing myself for a uptick tomorrow. Was worth it though since had a great time and we won!!
10,232 steps, 35 minutes of exercise, 68 oz of water
02/23 - 156.1, busy day today with a volunteer shift from 9-1, brunch (not a great menu for a diet but they have a la carte eggs and fruit salad), gym/shower after, and then a club dinner at 5 so won’t be back home until after 8pm.
12,282 steps, 60 minutes of exercise, 64 oz of water
02/24 - 156.4, had brunch out today (2 egg white scrambled, piece of rye toast, and breakfast potatoes) so hoping I stay under 156.5 tomorrow. Diet will be back to normal tomorrow since weekends I tend to eat out more. Really going to try for 155 on 3/01, but started February 160.4 so 5.4 lbs is a bit ambitious for only 28 days so won’t kick myself too much if don’t get there.
Phone ran out of battery at 2pm with 6850 steps but walked a lot after. Charging Fitbit today since I have to get used to wearing it even if I don’t think it’s attractive— no time for egos., 60 minutes of exercise, 64 oz of water
02/25 - 156.3, back to where I was at the start of the round and pretty happy with that since ate out 3 out of the past 4 days and even if you think you’re ordering correctly it’s hard to know how much oil or salt was used.
10,345 steps, 55 minutes on elliptical, 70 oz of water
02/26 - 156.1, going in the right direction. It’s raining hard here today so hoping to get steps in. Not sure if will be able to if wind picks up.
