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!

Hi-I’m Karen
Sept. 2018 OSW 187 (Was my Round #1)
UGW 135.....yes, 135!
Goal this round-159-hopefully! I got down to 162 last round.
3/14-166- I upped my walking miles yesterday, it made me super hungry, I made tomato/feta soup and forgot to be drinking water....
3/15-163- It was so nice here yesterday, I went for a big walk in the morning and then a short one after dinner-that helps.
3/16-No Scale
3/17-No Scale
3/18-167-Long hours traveling to a funeral.It was great to see family. It was nice to pick anything out I wanted to wear, because now, everything fits.
It’s wonderful to have ALL of you here!☕️🌸10 -

03/14 - 347.8 Umm...what!?! Five pounds lost overnight? I had my husband double check the scale because he had already weighed and then I weighed myself again. Hopefully the downward trend continues, but I won’t be surprised by gains in the following days. My goals are to stay on track and continue to fight my cold.
03/15 - 347.2 So it appears that my scale wasn’t horribly wrong yesterday and the downward trend continues. I’m feeling much better this morning and I’m already at pre sick steps for the morning. I might wait until Sunday to restart workouts. I’m very cautious with chest colds due to having a history of getting bronchitis. Today is my mother in law’s birthday and I’m hopeful of staying on track.
03/16 - 353 Frustrating but not surprising. I didn’t think I had lost 5 pounds overnight and I guessed that I should have been closer to my round start weight. Anything over that is from the bread and sodium from last night’s dinner. I’m sure the next couple of days will see my weight average out between the two numbers. My nsv yesterday was getting in all the steps I wanted plus a few extra.
03/17 - 353 Just waiting on the woosh down.
03/18 - 352.4 That’s a start. I believe that one of the reasons I’m finding this weight set mentally difficult is this is the weight I was when I last tried to lose over four years ago. I bounced between this and 350 and at the time I thought I was really trying. Looking back I know that wasn’t the case. I would have a cheat meal which would turn into a cheat day which turned into a cheat week. I never made any true or lasting changes. I keep having to remind myself that this time I’m serious and that this very minor hiccup is water and that I’m honestly tracking and not falling back into old habits. I know that I’ve got this and that I can do it.

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.

3/14 128.0 Didn’t got to Greek as planned last night. Going to Golden Corral tonight with friends.
3/15 128.0 I plan to enjoy homemade chicken broth today. Think I overdid the treadmill yesterday. I actually WANT to get back to where I was 10 years ago but my body is not so sure.
3/16 128.0 Finally made it to Great Greek and ate 1/2 my large Greek Salad with gyro. I was stuffed. Also walked a lot. Got over my step goal.
3/17 128.5. Finished my salad for brunch yesterday, made Alfredo chicken and zoodles for a friend’s memorial potluck. Don’t know what I ate that made me feel so bloated! UGH!
3/18 128.5 May not have had enough water yesterday. Neighbor dog woke us before 5:30 this morning. UGH9 -

I didn’t eat sugar except for 1 dessert 3/15. Appetite was high last night- salt seems to trigger. This is a BIG ah-ha❣️

You. ARE Healthier. Than. You. Ever. Thought. Possible. #Grateful,soGrateful🍀🙏🏻🌈♥🌟🌈🍎
HDL is now 55 (not 39!!) 1st time ever! Daily walking did it. All cholesterol & triglyceride labs are perfect. Low bp etc etc. parathyroid is the best it’s been, well in normal range!!! I track everything I eat Every Day.
~^~*~^~*~^~*~^~*~^~*~^~*~^~*~^~*~
Track Days at or under previous trend weight for R71 2 🎉🎉
Track days sodium under 2g 2/4🧂🧂
Tracks days with 0 or 1 sweet thing:
3/4 💕💕💕
Track days with fruit/veg > 15oz ie 5 servings 4/4 🍎🥬🥕🥦
You have accomplished great things with your health. Do keep this in mind! You are winning the war, if not each day’s battle! You are stronger & more robust than you think❣
SO, all this time I thought it was SUGAR.
It’s SALT.
and FIBER.
So glad I’ve tracked everything I’ve eaten, so I can analyze...
So eating out reduces my fiber & increases my sodium.
Ahhh, I bet the reduced fiber is making it so I’m hungrier as food is not released more slowly.. ah ha.
I’m GOING to solve this. It was so much easier before. I didn’t have cravings. I’m determined to reset things.

So eating out reduces my fiber & increases my sodium.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/14--212.9 I realized that I need to really work on my evening snacking. I don't know if it's boredom, tiredness or something else, but I want to be really conscious of why I snack so much in the evening even when I'm not hungry. What's weird is that I'm not even snacking on junk food or any specific type of food. It's going to be hard, but I think it should be interesting. Trainer tonight.
03/15--212.5 Ok, yesterday evening I tried something new to help curb my snacking. I had my dinner and then about 1/2 an hour later I realized that I was still hungry, but instead of reaching for a snack I decided to have another serving of my dinner. After the 2nd serving the hunger was gone and when about an hour later my husband asked if I wanted any of the popcorn he made I said no when I realized that I wasn't hungry. I didn't snack for the rest of the evening and in the end ate less calories than I've eaten over the prior couple of days when I was snacking. This has made me realize that I'm probably not eating enough for dinner and when I get hungry in the evening and start snacking it's hard for me to stop. So, I think from now on I'm going to eat more at dinner which will curb my hunger during the rest of the evening and hopefully I won't even start snacking. Run tonight.
03/16-212.5. Kept with the larger dinner last night and there was no snacking. Finished w7d2...8 more days to my 5k. Went to the gym this morning to do some weightlifting. Have to work on getting my water in today...it's so much harder for me on the weekend.
03/17--212.9 Well, plan to drink more water yesterday was a fail. I also realized that my plan to eat more at dinner to reduce snacking works much better on days that I work because I will snack all day if I'm at home. I think I may just accept the fact that I will probably be eating at maintenance on the weekends and just not worry about staying in deficit. Today I finished W7D3...it was an absolutely perfect run...one more week until my 5k. I bought a sofa today and did some errands. Drinking more water today than yesterday so that is a plus.
03/18--212.5 Up and down and up and down. No workout/run planned today, but the weather is supposed to be great today, high 60's and sunny, that I might need to take the dog out after work for a long walk.

Feeling frustrated with my up and down of essentially 1 lb for the past 7 (!) weeks. I know that my food has not been 100% because I have started back in the gym and trying to juggle too many balls in the air. That being said, for the next 10 day round I commit to:
~ writing my food down before I eat it
~allowing myself a maintenance MEAL and not a maintenance DAY on the weekends
~continuing with my workout plan of 30 days of yoga and 2x lifting per week.
03/14 185.4
03/15 184.8 I like this number! Hopefully I can keep my head in the game this weekend and not undo all of my good work. Tomorrow I have an art opening, St Paddy's parade.. and green beer? I'm not a big beer drinker so should be able to keep it at 1 or 2. Guess I will eat a good lunch beforehand and bring a snack in my bag so I'm not as tempted by salty junk.
03/16 185.6 Didn't do too badly on this day. We went out for sushi, but I just got edamame and garlic beef, ate one sushi bite, and had only 1 green beer at the parade festivities.
03/17 185.5 Still sitting here. Working in the garden all day.
03/18 186.6 I made a nice ham for dinner last night with boiled potatoes and roasted carrots for dinner last night. Stayed within my calories no problem. so it must be the salt still hanging around I guess. Having a super hungry day so far, lifts in the gym were not great due to not sleeping well for the past few nights. Hopefully can sleep good tonight and get back on track! Yoga this afternoon, I can really tell the difference if I skip it!~ Halfway through this challenge, need to get on track with the downward scale trend!

Day/Weight/Comment
3/14 - 171.2 - 20g carbs, 15g net carbs. Carbs were: steamables golden potatoes (6.5gcarb), salad, deli smoked turkey, manzanilla olives, cucumber ranch dressing, au jus sauce. Okay, my weight has settled here for today. Probably that tiny potato 😂 Dinner was 2 hours later than I planned, due to this HUGE chuck roast I was cooking. It took 2+ hrs in the pressure cooker! with a couple of stops and starts to check it during the process. Should have put the 2nd weight on the pot.
3/15 - 172.2 - 32g carbs, 26g net carbs. Carbs were: salad, olives, dill pickle, grape tomatoes, jalapenos, peanut butter, almonds, walnuts, deli smoked turkey. A little fluid retention..... from exercise, not carbs! Knee is behaving, so back to strengthing quads and hams. Taking it low and slow, but consistently. I'm dealing with old shoulder injuries too, so must not be impatient with myself trying to do sets, reps and long workouts like I used to do.
3/16 - 173 - Normal fluctuation. 35g carbs, 27g net carbs. Carbs were: Strawberries, salad, peanut butter, celery, carrot, apple in chicken salad, cranberry cheddar, spaghetti squash, au jus sauce. Did not take vitamins 2 days, Th, F.
3/17 - 171.2 - 38g carbs, 28g net carbs. Too much peanut butter! Need B's. I did take my vitamins. Carbs were: green beans, au jus sauce, olives, deli smoked turkey, peanut butter.
Carb count increased from peanut butter.
3/18 - 171 - 26g carbs, 19g net carbs. Carbs were: eggs, spinach, salad, strawberries, peanut butter, sundried tomato dressing. It's going to be a slow roll with some backtracking out of the 170's. That was my normal pattern of weightloss before October 2018. Now I've buckled down and become conscious of the issues holding me in this decade for so long. With humbleness, prayer, guidance and thankfulness, I'm certain that I will exit this learning phase successfully. ☺

Day/Weight/Comment
03/14: 204.4 Yesterday I actually got up and did my workout BEFORE work (not a morning person). I know I need to drink a bit more water!
03/15: 201.7 – Quite a jump, don’t expect it to stay this low just yet lol. Got more water in yesterday though. Did well today food wise. Have worked out every day this week, so considering not doing it today but there is still time if I change my mind.
03/16: 201.7 – No change, not unexpected. Had French fries with lunch, low on water today. Expect I may see the scale go up tomorrow.
03/17: 201.7 – 03/17: 201.7 – I guess that’s good, no gain lol. Have had a pretty lazy weekend, but may try and do a little yoga later.
03/18: 202.4- There it is lol. I was pretty lazy this weekend just working on school (master’s), didn’t even get out of pajamas yesterday! Done well, so far, on food today though and about to workout.

I have no idea how many rounds this is for me. Ended last round at 152.7, looking to end this one at least at 150 something and with a lower 10 day average. Good luck everyone!
03/14 - 151.0 did more snacking last night than I should have. I didn't get dinner on the table till about 7:15 and had a couple of snacks while I was cooking and waiting to start cooking. We were trying to get the second oldest ready for his first day of work. It took us 18 years to convince that kid he needed a job, but he finally did it. I am just hoping he likes it and he figures out it isn't as bad as he has built it up to be in his head. The oldest also came by and picked some furniture up that we are giving him and his girlfriend. They are getting their own place next month when this semester ends and moving in together. First year of college is almost complete for them. Plan is set today for food and water and I am staying on my no alcohol train. Today will be day 5, trying to do a 14 day no alcohol challenge. Honestly it has been tougher than I thought.
03/15 - 151.0 same as yesterday. I guess I can't complain, although was hoping it would be lower. We did go out to dinner last night and I stayed within calories. Did not eat any bread which is definitely a win in my book. So I guess staying the same after a meal out is good, seeing as I usually gain a couple of pounds after a night out. Meals are ready for today and hoping for the best through the weekend.
03/16 - 150.1 Nice little drop to start the weekend. It also flashed 149.8 but then went up to 150.1. Still very happy with my weigh in. Now if I can hold on to it for the next 2 days. I’m already on track for breakfast and lunch today. Going out to dinner tonight and then a basketball game. My goal today, no alcohol and to eat something in calories at the restaurant.
03/17 - 151.0 I have no idea why it’s up. Ate well and ran errands all day. Thought it would be lower though. Maybe it’s because we ate so late last night or because I weighed 3 hours later than normal this morning. I’m not complaining, it’s a Sunday and it hasn’t gone up 2 or 3 pounds, so I guess I will take it as a win.
03/18 - 154.0 I am extremely annoyed. Last weekend I thought it was because I ate pork on Sundays. It's the only day that I eat it, but we always have a big family breakfast with sausage and bacon every Sunday. So I didn't eat any of it thinking it was the sodium, and I gained 3.6 pounds from Friday to Monday. This weekend I was convinced that it had to be the alcohol that we drink on the weekend. So, I did not have a sip of alcohol all weekend, not even yesterday for St Patty's day! Guess what I gained 3.9 pounds Friday to Monday. I stayed within calories, drank a ton of water I thought, and still have this crazy spike. Maybe it is bread? I usually don't eat bread at all, but the weekends are harder seeing as we do hamburgers or hot-dogs on the grill ,or order pizza, or have toast or biscuits with breakfast. So I guess I will cut all bread next weekend and see if that's what is causing my gain. Maybe I have a hard time processing the bread right away or something. I know I will be back down in a day or 2 but it messes up my 10 day average and it is so frustrating some times. I ate a half a piece of toast yesterday and a cinnamon roll and 2 slices of thin crust pizza. All within calories, no reason for a 4 pound gain.
