Day/Weight/Comment
03/14 — 195.6 — I’m doing well with tracking and staying on my eating plan. Motivated by that vacation coming up.
03/15 — 195.3 — Staying on track. Weekend is here which means more temptation. I plan to allow for 1 cheat this weekend.
03/16 — 195.7 — Ate a little more than usual, but all WOE approved foods.
3/17 — 195.6 — Can’t seem to move off 195. But my blood pressure is better! Happy about that.
03/18 — 195.5 — Keeping on track. Last night was the first time I’ve had a snack after dinner since starting. It was only 8 almonds so I think I’m good.
03/19 — 194.8 — Going in the right direction.
03/20 - 194.0 — Happy with this. Going out today for a spring break fun day with my daughter. I will probably have a cheat item but plan to keep it at one thing. Planning ahead is key for me.
03/21 — 193.7 — Ordered a small mocha coffee yesterday and could only drink a small amount. I’d say that is a win.

03/22 — 193.9 — Over ate a bit yesterday but all WOE approved foods.

🌷🍀Day/Weight/Comment🍀🌷
03/14 176.4 Water weight is coming off! I’m ready to see what the next 10 days brings! I was within calories yesterday and got in a Fitness Blender upper body workout. Have a great day everyone!
03/15 176.8 Hmm...I was within calories and macros but I've got a little doms from that Fitness Blender workout and yesterday was a stressful day at work. I did get in a short walk. Today is my day off. I plan to do some resting today even though I need to buy some groceries. Not sure if I'll go for my step goal today, but I am thinking of getting a workout in!
03/16 174.8 I surprised myself and got my steps in and I got a workout! A lot of times it can feel a little hard to get 10,000 steps on my day off. But yesterday it felt easy. And I still feel like I had a relaxing day! Back to work today.
03/17 175 It was another crazy day at work yesterday. And I wanted so bad to give in to my old habit of soothing with sweets. "Just forget it. Eat whatever you want!" But I didn't give in to that thought! And it was just perfect timing that pastor is doing a series on feelings and how we don't want to just make decisions based on how we feel!
I'm going to try today and not let the craziness at work get to me.
03/18 175.6 Tried to post earlier but couldn't. Is this the corned beef and the beer? I tracked them both and was supposedly within calories. Anyway it was a delicious way to end my day! I've been gluten free for close to 10 years and hubby bought me a gluten free porter as that used to be my favorite type of beer. It was so good! But I only had 8 oz. It's nice to know I can enjoy it again!
03/19 175 It’s my hubby’s birthday today! But we’re going to have family dinner out tomorrow for his birthday. It’s my day off today, and I’m really taking a rest day today. This past weekend at work was the longest and busiest weekend ever. I might take a short walk because it’s beautiful sunny out today!
03/20 173. 6 I stepped on and off the scale a couple of times just to be sure! I had a pretty nice day off yesterday, and we took a nice sunset walk. Felt like a relaxing day. Tonight we’re going out to dinner for my hubby’s birthday. I’ve guessed how many calories it’s going to be. I’m looking forward to it! I hope you guys have a great day!
03/21 175.2 Crazy. We went out for my hubby's birthday dinner. I thought I over estimated the calories in my dinner. I might have and this is salt? 🤷‍♀️ And I guess we're going out again tonight because some friends are in town. It'll be nice to see them again! Nutrition information was not available at either place, the one we ate at last night and the place we're tonight. I'm trying to make healthy choices.

03/22 175 Posting late today! I'm so glad it's Friday! We ate dinner later than usual last night and I took a short walk before going out to dinner. We had a really nice visit and super yummy food! I'm ready for my normal routine today. Have a great day everyone!

03/14/19. 211.8#. Taking a one day break from working out today. Back at it tomorrow. Had a great day! Feeling good! Didn't stay under the recommended calories, but I stayed under 2,000. I'm pleased with that.
03/15 211.8#. I'm down 2.2# from last Friday. Workout-strength. It's Friday. Fasted most of the day.
03/16 210.2#. I'm 0.2# from my goal weight. This week I have been feeling so much better! I've had a cookie that wasn't home cooked, otherwise I'm at 13 days of not eating processed food. I worked out 5 days this week. Today will be #6.
03/17 210.6#. One thing I learned today: don't eat 2 servings of a new recipe and then figure out how many calories it is. Not good! If I figure in my exercise, I'm under 2,000 calories. Only 56 ounces of water today.
03/18 211#. Totally went nuts at supper. 3 servings of alfredo even after knowing the calories. No motivation for anything. Didn't workout today. Super lazy.
03/19 210.8#. 30 minutes exercise. 1,526 calories in. 66 oz water.
03/20 210#. GOAL REACHED. New goal 200#. Ate when hungry. Had a couple major cravings today, but I didn't give in. 1,517 calories in. 88 oz water.
03/21 209.8#. 97 oz water. 1,455 calories. Felt pretty good today. I've been tired all week, but I haven't gone to bed early either.
03/22H8 209.2#. Down 2.6#from last Friday. Fasted until supper. 1,724 calories in. Ate out today and had dessert. Very happy with my choices. 64 oz water, I have a little more time to drink. I'll be thirsty tomorrow since I ate out today.

03/14 234.8 Happy to have found this challenge. Finishing a vacation and feeling that I could have enjoyed it more and been more active if I were healthier and lighter. Was not able to be as physically active with my kids as I would've liked. It is no fun being the least fit person in a group.
03/15 234.6 Overnight drive last night. Energy level was really up and down today. Not caught up on sleep yet. Not well hydrated.
03/16 234.6 . Listened to a guided meditation for weight loss on Insight Timer before going to sleep last night.
03/17 240.1 Decided to start weighing and posting at night. Figured weights may fluctuate more, but it is more convenient for me. Depressed about vacation being over. Should be much easier for me to eat less this week though, due to return to normal life.
03/18 236.8. Back to work, boohoo. Very busy and stressful day. Didn't sleep well last night and had a terrible neck/headache all night and today. Finally took some Aleve and it helped tremendously.
Don't know why it takes me so long to think of taking a pain reliever.
Did a yoga DVD and the whole family participated (6 year old took a break to eat some Rice Krispies). Back felt a lot better after.
Still feeling dehydrated all day.
This was the most “normal” day since the start of the challenge.
03/19 235.2 . Did not have a big enough dinner last night. Got a headache again today. Definitely still overdoing it on sugar.
03/20 236.2 My aunt had a stroke 10 days ago. My mom put her on the phone tonight for a few seconds. It was wonderful! Family history of stroke and heart attack are something to start taking seriously. I want to live my best life possible.
03/21 236.8 . Today is my Friday. Hoping to get outside a lot this weekend.
03/22 238.2 Very busy today but could have used my bit of free time better. Not making the best choices. Way overdid it on the sodium today.

Tired, did the elliptical this morning for 45 minutes then my son wanted to strength training tonight. So I went with him. It is all good, I'm just tired.

03/18 77.0kg all good. Even ran despite the rainy night and wet ground. Only a short 1.5km to start the week and I did pushup etc yesterday!
03/19 77.6kg for no reason so no worries. I'll keep within calories and macros and it will go again.
03/20 77.7kg still no reason and that's why I only record weight on Sunday! Pushup yesterday and a short run this morning
03/21 77.3kg back down again as predicted. It does this most weeks!

@MarisaMSimon You were up all night packing? How long are you staying? When our granddaughter visited the first time (she was 19) she brought 17 pairs of shoes for a 4 DAY visit! LOL

I literally changed my outfits for the weekend multiple times! 😄 and I had to pack for my husband, which is not easy either haha

Round #5 for me.

Followed a 1000 calorie diet for the last 5 weeks! Lost some weight during the first 3 rounds but not as much as I expected and the last round was Disappointing for me. I gained .6 lbs .. Still hanging in there. Got some great advice from other members here and will make some changes this round.. I'm trying now the 5:2 diet, where I'm eating free for five days of the week (up to 1700 calories) and the other two days restrict calories to 500–600 per day. Hope I'll see good results this round.

DAY - WEIGHT - COMMENT
03/14 - 79,3 kg - starting off strong but this might be because my stomach was upset and I *TMI* had to run to the bathroom multiple times last night we'll see what tomorrow says! Also because I've been under 80kg for 3 days now I'm gonna say I succeeded at my first mini goal!
03/15 - 78,9 kg - okay I guess yesterday was still semi-representative! happy about this. also stopped myself from binging yesterday night so that's good!
03/16 - 78,9 kg - didn't expect a drop from yesterday because I already had been dropping quite a lot quite fast the past couple of days. tonight will be difficult because i'm eating out fast food with some friends, so reminder to myself: don't beat yourself up if there's a gain tomorrow morning haha.
03/17 - 79,4 kg - breathe and move on.
03/18 - 78,8 kg - there we go, back to normal! don't know if my goal this round is possible but we'll just keep doing our thing!
03/19 - 78,2 kg - whoosh!
03/20 - 78,1 kg - /
03/21 - 78,0 kg - will we get under 78 this round? only 2 days left...
03/22 - 77,8 kg - I'm honestly really proud of my progress the past couple of weeks. Sometimes I wish the weight went faster but I didn't gain it all in 2 months so I should not expect to lose it all in that time period. Slow and steady (and healthy~) wins the race. Final day of this round tomorrow! Might see a little gain from this, but that's okay!

03/23 - 78,2 kg - ah too bad I didn't end this round on a high note haha. See you guys in R72!

03/18 - 61.7kg (-1.0) - I have been totally AWOL! It's been a bit of a wobbly week, lots of stress and bad food choices. Still time to turn it around I guess...
03/19 - 61.1kg (-0.6) - Back on plan. 3 weeks and 5 days until my boyfriend arrives... Not that he is going to give a *kitten* how much I weigh after 3 months apart lol but I'd like to be back in my maintenance bracket.
03/20 - 60.2kg (-0.9) - Light dinner last night so not going to get too excited about this number. May still make goal this round though which would be good! Just heading out for my run and pre-logged my food. Feeling strong!
03/21 - 60.2kg (0) - Happy to see this number holding but I'd love to see a number starting with a 5! Working from our Glasgow office today, where they always have the tastiest treats in the kitchenette. Brought my own snacks and will avoid even going in to the tea room! Wish me luck.
03/22 - 60.2kg (0) - I am stuck on this number! I had a strong day yesterday - was feeling terribly emotional and still made good choices about what to eat, chose a salad when out for lunch with a colleague, avoided treats in the coffee room and went for a run even though it wasn't in my plan. And scored a NSV! I ran my fastest ever 5k yesterday, despite having been laid out with a shoulder injury for the last 6 weeks! Feeling very proud
03/23 - 60.1kg (-0.1) - Well the scale budged enough to prove it's not broken I guess. Had a hungry day yesterday and fought it tooth and nail for the challenge. I had hoped to see a number starting with a 5! Out for dinner tonight and a big hike planned for either today or tomorrow. Maybe see that elusive 59-point-something Tuesday or Wednesday next week.


Round 71 - Disappointed that my average weight is the same as last round but I have to remember I spent half this round completely off the wagon. In a good groove now and looking forward to Round 72!

I don’t make a goal to lose here; I see how much I can lose within the 10 days. I do have goals and am on number 3. I don’t count this as completed until 210 or under.

My Goal 3 is to be 210 for March 29th – I will accomplish this ahead of time. I have other goals but have to reevaluate them, due to the weight already loss.

Round 68 SW: 225.8 – EW: 219.8 (↓6lbs)

Round 70 SW: 215.8 – EW: 210.8 (↓5lbs)

Day/Weight/Comment
03/14 – 210.2 – comments
03/15 - 210.0 – met my March 29th goal of weighing 210. I have to reevaluate goals today (was waiting for this weigh-in to do this).
03/16 210.6 – no complaints or explanations just moving onto the next day! I finally got new bands for my tracker a couple days ago and yesterday walked over 11,000 steps for me that is a lot.
03/17 – 209.8 my scale is screwy this morning, every time I stepped on it, it was a different weight all lower (207.2, 209.4), the last time I stepped it shot up to 210.8 (I know this amount is not correct), so I took the first one when stepped on the scale (the weight you see), I hate this scale really liked my first one, but it seems off since my hubby fixed it.
03/18 - 209
03/19 – 209.4 Surprised by this but I shouldn’t be, because started the day out by eating cookies, and it went down from there even though within my calories and a lot of exercise and movement so would not show on the scale my bad choices.
03/20 – 209.8 I can’t keep dwelling on it, this morning. I must let it be what it is and figure out what I am doing wrong. I am under calories always, I exercised more the past couple days, and got my 10,000 steps in, drink lots of water.
03/21 – 210.6 I don’t know what is going on here, I don’t cheat with calories, because I exercise and this allows for the calorie increase, I drink lots of water, I don’t eat after 6pm. The only difference is yesterday didn’t get extra exercising in. I don’t binge eat. I’m so disappointed.
03/22 – 209.8 Better than yesterday’s weigh-in!
03/23 – 209.6 I guess this is the way it will work, I also got another work in last night from the elementary school because my granddaughter had a tournament for basketball, it was to see who can make the most baskets, she came in 11th at 14 baskets, and her team of 3rd and 4th graders also got a trophy for being undefeated for the year.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/14 96.9 Well that's a nice drop, no running etc at the moment as I am suffering with a viral infection. Sinuses are on fire and I feel like I'm going to cough up a lung soon! On the plus side I have zero appetite and it just tastes like cardboard when I eat…
03/15 96.7 nice to see the scale go down. Expecting a small bounce up over the weekend, I'm not eating properly and I haven't run since Tuesday… but it will be temporary! Feeling much better apart from the tail end of a really irritating tickly cough…
03/16 96.8 I took a maintenance day yesterday and just relaxed a bit! Planning to take another today. But hoping to be back out running by Monday. Surprised my weight didn't go up though as I had wine and snacks, guess there'll be a bounce somewhere down the road?!
03/17 97.1 nyeh, Cheese Board! It'll pass!
03/18 dnw completely forgot!
03/19 95.9 a week of a viral infection done, now it's time to get back to work! 17 days until graduation! I can't wait! I worked hard for my master's so I feel like I deserve my day out!
03/20 95.2 think I was right to take out my implanon.... 10 days later and my weight is dropping very easily!
03/21 95.7 under calories yesterday but I did have a kebab!!! So I'm guessing the salt will be the culprit here!!! It'll drop off in a day or 2 at most. I have a run tomorrow morning then hitting the gym on sat and sun for spinning so I'll sweat it out!!! I was just feeling so sorry for myself as this viral infection is just not letting up, I am sooooo tired of coughing and blowing my nose!!!!
03/22 dnw was up half the night coughing so just completely forgot to weigh this morning!
03/23 94.9 was very good with food and water yesterday, might go for a rún later today to test my lungs, infection is lifting but very slowly… delighted to have achieved my round goal!

Day/Weight/Comment

03/14 133.2 – yay !! starting with a drop! An hours yoga and just over10 miles walked yesterday. Today is my 1000th streak on MFP.
03/15 133.2 – just over 2 ½ miles walked yesterday; all gained around the soft play area that I went to with 2 daughters & their babies, had lunch & indulged in carrot cake too – but that was only indiscretion and was within calorie intake goal for the day.

03/16 132.8 – just over 10 ½ miles walked yesterday
03/17 133.4 – 5.81 miles walked yesterday
03/18 133.4 – 12 ¾ miles walked yesterday in our Local Area of Natural Beauty, heard the first skylark of spring singing !! Yay !
03/19 133.0 – 10 miles walked yesterday
03/20 133.0 - just over 10 miles walked yesterday, did momentarily see 132.4 on scale this morning, but it was just teasing me !!
03/21 133.0 -10 ½ miles walked and an hours yoga class done. Yet again the scales tamtalised me with flashing 132.4 momentarily!!!
03/22 132.4 – yay!! I knew persistence would eventually prevail! - 8 ¼ miles walked pushing my little grandson in his pushchair whilst he had his afternoon nap yesterday

03/23 132.4 – happy with a loss – 11 ¼ miles walked yesterday and 2 hours dancing last night

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

03/14 11st 0.2lb
03/15 11st 1.6lb - I have no idea what happened here. I went to a cafe with a friend yesterday and while she had lunch I just had a soft drink. In the evening I went where there were cakes which I didn't have. I weighed all of my food and drink as always - I only had 1100 calories (100 under what I should have) although on 1200 I usually just maintain. But putting on almost 1 and a half pounds from yesterday has totally stumped me.

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– 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.
03/19: 201.5- Did some heavier weights, so while I’m down again today I feel like it might go up tomorrow. Pretty sure I’ll hit my 2L of water today (should probably drink even more than that, but I don’t even always get in the 2L)
03/20 201.5- Not much to report today. Didn’t get my workout in… may try and do a little extra tomorrow since I’m off.
03/21 200.7 – Nice! Worked out this morning and then had my monthly massage. I did end up eating lunch out and thought I’d completely blown my calories because I had Cheetos and didn’t even look at the nutritional info! Logging later and they weren’t nearly as many calories as I thought!
03/22 200.7-
03/23 200.7- Weighed yesterday, but didn’t get to post. Had a massive cheat meal last night as we went to our favorite burger spot in Trier…. Best burgers we’ve had in Germany. Sooo good, but soooo full.

03/14 - 209.6 - up 1.4. No idea why, but today I will be super good to get back to where I was. Very good food wise and plenty of brisk walking
03/15 - 208.2 - back to where I was. Not a lot of exercise today. And not at home so eating was a little off.
03/16 - 210.6 - omg where did that 2.4 lb come from? Was expecting to be up but 2.4lb? Food ok, exercise none!
03/17 - 208.6 - weighed later than usual. Food ok but no exercise again. Another day of eating on the run.
03/18 - 211.8 - back to the 208s again. Food was good. Plenty of water and a 7km walk around my couch to 5k.
03/19 - 208.6 - very good food and water. And I managed a yoga class and a brisk walk. Not a long walk but at least I made the choice of 25 mins walking while I was waiting instead of grabbing a quick coffee.
03/20 - 207.6 - finally below my start weight! Good day food. Not as much exercise as I would like but I squashed in 2 shorts walks.
03/21 - 206.8 - good food and plenty of water. Squashed in a good walk.
03/22 - 206.4 - delighted to be down- just one day left and I would like to get down another little bit. Food was only ok. A little too much eaten and could have done with more exercise.
03/23 - 206.8 - up a little again but at least I have an overall loss of 1.4lb for the round. Roll on the next round.

My target for the round is to lose something - ideally be at 149 or less .....

Friends over from the US this weekend which will involve a few drinks and meals out so this weekend may not be pretty on the scales then but nothing other than that.
Need to get back into the losing mind set........... and staying accountable to myself by being on here is probably a good place to start

Start of round 150.6lb

14/03 - 150.0 (down 0.60lb) happy with that start thank you scales!

15/03 - 149.9 (down 0.1lb)
16/03 - DNW - didnt actually get home till 530am after a great night catching up with friends
17/03 - DNW - got a lay in and brought tea in bed
18/03 - DNW - totally forgot
19/03 - DNW - chucked out the bathroom this morning by my daughter! But still hopeful for 149 by the round end. Either got a lay in, totally forgot or else rushed out the bathroom before getting chance to weigh! Not doing very well with my intention for this round of being on here and being accountable to myself..... Promise to myself to remember to weigh tomorrow - still 4 days of the round to go

20/03 - 151.0lb - up 1.1lb - not what I wanted to see but guessing its a hangover from the weekends socialising and the fact that TOM is now overdue I am where I am so going to look at today as my new "1st January" 3 days of the round left to make a difference. My original target for the round was to lose something so need at least 1lb gone before Saturday morning .....

21/03 - 149.3 down 1.7lb. up down up down - my intention is to make this "down" stick around. Still feel bloated - not sure if its because of the weight I'm currently at, not so great eating habits recently, TOM overdue or just general peri-menopausal stuff, but don't like it - will keep glugging away at the water for now and see what happens. Good food day planned and gym tonight and now hopeful to make my 149 target for the round end

22/03 - 149.80 up 0.50lb - food was all good yesterday calorie wise but carb heavy (some rice at lunch and a home made burger in a bun in the evening). HiiT session at the gym last night which i enjoyed. Drank plenty so hoping just a blip. One more weigh in this round - please let me finish under 150 .......

23/03 - 149.7 down 0.1. So finished in the 149's just - not huge progress this round but progress none the less. Head been a bit more back in the game the last few days so going to try and continue that mindset into the next round. Still no TOM so no idea on that front - if or when - the joys of heading towards 50 eh ? See you all next round xx

Day/Weight/Comment

03/14 – 142 – Holding steady which is a surprise due to my stress snacking lately.
03/15 – 142.5 – There’s the snacking. It could also just be some water weight, it happens all the time.
03/16 – 142 – Yesterday was such a crazy day I had no time to pack food for work or cook at home. I drove through the drive thru at McDonalds and got an egg mcmuffin w/o Canadian bacon for breakfast, a co-worker grabbed lunch at Chick-fil-a and I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, then my sick husband wanted pizza for supper so I ate one piece. Although I’m surprised the sodium/carbs didn’t hit this morning, I have to say my choices and quantities are better than I would have made before I started my weight loss last year. I know I could have ordered salads, but all in all it wasn’t a terrible calorie day and I felt satisfied.
03/17 - 143.5 - I knew it might take a couple days to show up! I'll be so glad when tax season is over and I can get back to a normal life.
03/18 – 144.5 – I wish I could say this was due to a fun night of partying last night. I know I didn’t eat enough to gain over 2 pounds so hopefully sticking to my weight loss calories and drinking plenty of water will get me back to the middle of my maintenance range by the end of the week.
03/19 – 144 – Slowly moving back down.
03/20 – 142.5 – That moved quicker than I thought it would!
03/21 – 141.5 – A new low!
03/22 – 139.5 – Not exactly sure what’s going on here. The past few days I haven’t felt well and as of last night I’m on antibiotics for a boil I had to have lanced yesterday. I weighed 144 at the Dr. office last night, fully dressed with shoes, so either my scale is acting up or the antibiotics took care of a lot of inflammation overnight. Either way, it’s nice to go into the weekend at this weight.
03/23 – 141.5 – This number looks more accurate and I’m still down a half pound for the round! Have a good Saturday and I’ll see you next round!

GW and BMI: 116 lbs, 20.5

Round 69: 126.3 -> 125 (1.3 lb loss)
Round 70: 124.8 -> 122.5 (2.3 lb loss)

14 March: 122.3 lbs * Round three for me! I'm going to set my Round 71 goal weight at 121.3 lbs, so a pound loss over the next 10 days. Going out for dinner tonight and I've already put my meal into MFP so off to a good start!

15 March: 122 lbs * While at dinner last night I was tempted by a slice of chocolate cake for dessert. After looking the calories up on the restaurant's website and seeing it would only put me over my calorie budget by 75 I figured... screw it, and went for it. I opted not to get the ice cream on the side which would have put me over another 200 and wouldn't have been worth it. But the chocolate cake was! Didn't seem to harm anything as I was still in a deficit and the scale still went down this morning.

16 March: 122.5 lbs * I ate a massive chunk of my calories last night waaaaay after 8PM (when I usually stop eating for the night), so this wasn't a shock.

17 March: 122.3 lbs * Going back down -- feeling good! I've rediscovered granola and yogurt for breakfast. Sooo tasty and filling!

18 March: 122.3 lbs * I weighed in earlier than normal this morning but I didn't want to wait cause I was hungry. Need to drink more water today!

19 March: 122.3 lbs * Apparently my body really enjoys being this weight. Not worrying too much as I'm sticking to my calories and drinking lot of water. Trusting the system!

20 March: 122 lbs * Back down to my lowest this morning, I was very happy to see that! Date night with my husband tonight, might eat at maintenance but not sure yet. Leaving the option open. I'll be eating the majority of my calories for dinner tonight regardless so I won't be too surprised if there's a small increase on the scale tomorrow morning.

21 March: 122 lbs * I decided I didn't need to eat at maintenance last night since I was full-up from dinner. I'm feeling really good lately. My sleep is amazing, I have so much more energy. I've fallen in love with cooking all over again. And I'm still enjoying all the food I always have. Eating things I like in moderation is the key to my mental success, 100%. I focused too much in the past on letting other people's unsolicited advice tell me how and what I should be eating ("don't do x", "don't do y"). But lately I have been listening to my own body and judging my progress based on how I am feeling mentally and physically. I feel that this has been the biggest positive change. This journey has been more of a mental hurdle than anything and every day its getting easier. I really do feel like I could do this forever!

22 March: 121.5 lbs * Happy to see this small dip! Bit of a slower week but I've kept to my calorie budget and made some other positive changes. These last 5.5lbs will be slow but I'm in no rush. One more day until the end of the round!

23 March: 121.5 lbs * Ordered Friday night pizza last night, yum! Stayed within my calories, drank lots of water. Very happy with this round! On track with my MFP goal of 0.5 lbs loss per week. See you in Round 72!

Total Round 71 Loss: 0.8 lbs
