Challenge Starting Weight ~ 189.6
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 177.6 (revised)
March 23, 2019 ~ ….. 189.6…..
3/26-…..187.6 ….. Finally in the right direction. Going now to check out the butt exercises Tish gave the link to. No flat butt for me in this weight loss. I want CURVES and shape!
April 2, 2019- …..191.2 ….. I have been eating my emotions this past week. It’s got to stop!
4/09- …..190.0 …..Up & down this past week. This landed lower by miracle!
4/16- …..191.8…..Dealing with the death of my sister. I just can’t focus right now on any of my goals. I hope I can get back on track soon. I hope you all will be patient with me.
4/23- …..194.3 ….. Easter week & continued to eat in grief. Starting my way back this week to a new & better version of me. Healthier!
4/30- ….196.8. ….. I was hoping to be 6 lbs down this month & ended up over 6 lbs up. I’m going to work harder & smarter.
May 7- …..195.6 …..Weigh in just after Chinese Buffet & fluid retention. However, still showing a loss!
5/14- …..192.7….. I’m very pleased with this. I worked hard to meet a birthday goal & it payed off. Overate on Mother’s day but no weight gain because I got sick. Food poisoning? Yikes…..
5/21- …..194.0 …..Hanging my head in shame…….
5/28- …..195.1 …..Weighed morning after Holiday BBQ & guests. Back on track starting today.
June 4- ….194.8. ….. Better than last weigh-in but I know I can do better. I must be low on water or electrolytes. I’m not sure which. I woke up with severe cramping in my feet. Charlie Horses. I’m never sure which deficiency causes this.
6/11- …..195.9 …..Last minute unexplained gain. Lots of travel in upcoming week so I don’t hold out much hope for improvement but will stick to plan & exercise as best and as often as I can.
6/19- …..198.7….. 3 days of travel & restaurants this past week and it shows.
6/25- …..196.6 …..Back on track & keeping my eye on the prize!
July 2- …..193.6 ….. I am pretty sure I am fat adapted at this time. My hunger seems at bay. It also helps that I’ve no travel or trips lately. I do better at home & away from so many temptations……
7/09- …..195.7 ….. This is what the holiday looks like on me. Travel today. Restaurants & lots of sitting in the car. Ugggg.
7/16- …..194.2 ….. Yes, I can! I can do this!
7/23- …..196.8 ….. Up higher then moving back down. Yo-Yo. Enjoyed DGS’s birthday party this week & now I’m fighting the bloat, bulge & water retention. Travel tomorrow will NOT help, but I’m trying to stay as strong as I can.
7/30- …..199.7 …..Travel, Travel, Travel
August 6- …..199.0 ….. Really struggling!
8/13- …..196.6 ….. A quick overnight drop. I hope it sticks!
8/20- …..195.4 ….. When I’m working it, I’m working it hard. I must try harder more consistently, but this a drop I really needed.
8/27- ….. …..

Ultimate goal - Maintain around 143 (range between 142 - 148)
I achieved my goal during the Winter challenge, and I've started the difficult job of keeping it off. I'm going to participate in the Spring challenge if y'all don't mind. My new pair of challenges are not gaining back and also not losing much more.

April 28: 144 (10-day average 142.0)
May:
May 5: Should be May 2; I was away from scale since April 28. 144.0 (10-day average 142.1).
May 30: 144.0 (10-day average 144.8)
June:

August 16: 143.8 (10-day average 144.5)
August 23: 146.2 (10-day average 146.5)
August 30:
Weight lost this week: I don't want to talk about it. My scale weight is up 2.4 pounds, and my ten-day average is up two. At least I'm still easily within my goal range, but damn.
August Goal: Keep my ten-day average to weigh at or below 143 (starting March 1 at 144.9)
August Actual: I am going the wrong direction, and Trendweight says I'm actually gaining over a pound a week. WTF?
Challenge Weight loss goal: Maintain between 142 - 148.
Actual Weight loss for the challenge: Well, at least by this metric I'm doing alright.

Hi, my name is Jenn and I am 39. I'm back for another round. The last one was not one of my best ones, only lost 3.5 pounds. With all of the holidays and vacations I bounced around the same 10 pounds. My lowest was 148 something and my highest was 157 something. So a new challenge and a new start!
Weigh in days will be Friday
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 3/20 151.8 my ending weight in the autumn challenge
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 140
March 21, 2019 ~ 150.9 nice drop for the first day of a new challenge! 10.9 pounds to go!
3/22 ~ 150.9 same as yesterday
3/29 ~ 150.1 was hoping to get out of the 150's but I am still here!
March EW: 150.1 Lost 1.7 pounds (10.1 pounds left)
April 5, 2019 ~ 148.1 loving this! staying focused this time and really trying to get below 145.
4/12 ~ 148.8 up just a bit this week, but had dinner out last night and a couple of beers
4/19 ~ 151.9 first day back from vacation. Was gone 5 days and didn't do terrible. Kinda of impressed with myself.
4/26 ~ 147.6 Good week so far. Luckily most of last week was water weight and sodium from vacation. Hopefully May will be a little better, but happy with April's progress.
April EW: 147.6 Lost 2.5 pounds (7.6 pounds left)
May 3 ~ 147.3 Only down 3/10 of a pound, but it was my anniversary this week.
5/10 ~ 146.5 New low and happy with this. Hopefully I am well out of the 150's.
5/17 ~ 148.0 2 restaurant meals yesterday, but well worth it. 2nd oldest graduated high school yesterday!
5/24 ~ family vaca in Colorado
5/31 ~ 149.3 I am finishing a little up this month, but May has been rough. Still in the 140's though!
May EW: 149.3 gained 1.7 pounds (9.3 pounds left)
June 7 ~ 147.1 I am finally getting back down. I am really hoping for a new low next week! In other news my middle child turned 17 this week! Can't believe how fast it is going!
6/14 ~ 146.1 A new low finally! Now to keep it going. I really want to see a 145 on the scale multiple times before we go into July! 2 more weeks and almost at my goal for the month!
6/21 ~ 148.0 was lower all week, but had pizza for dinner last night. 1 week left and still have not met my goal
6/28 ~ 148.0 same as last week. Lots of crazy stuff going on. 2 more days to get down at least 1 more pound.
June EW: 145.9 lost 3.4 pounds (5.9 pounds left)
7/5 ~ 146.7 up a bit, but that’s ok. 4th of July was nice and didn’t do to bad.
7/12 ~ 144.6 I am staying focused and it is paying off. Hopefully I will have 2 more great weigh ins like this one.
7/19 ~ 145.3 I am ok with this. Was holding on to some water weight or something all week and finally coming back down
7/26 ~ 143.1 So far this has been an excellent month!
July EW: 143.7 lost 2.2 pounds (3.7 pounds to go)
August 2 ~ 142.2 great start to the month. I may even reach my goal this challenge! Super stoked
8/9 ~ 140.8 Super happy with this drop. Have been trying to stay really focused the last couple of weeks
8/16 ~ 142.7 I have been here all week. To be honest have not really been trying all that hard the last couple of weeks. My 4th oldest child turns 14 this Sunday and we are having a party for him tomorrow. I can't believe how old all of my kids are getting!
8/23 ~ 142.1 it has been a crazy rough month and all I have done is play catch up and offset my really bad days.

August 23: 146.2 (10-day average 146.5)
August 30: 146.0 (10-day average 146.7)
Weight lost this week: Effectively no loss. That's not terrible, except I'm still up from the beginning of the month. But I am back down from a small jump I seemed to make about ten days ago and am moving back towards my goal. Essentially, once again, I'm maintaining a few small pounds over my dang goal.
August Goal: Keep my ten-day average to weigh at or below 143 (starting March 1 at 144.9)
August Actual: I think this goal may be too low since 143 is my goal, so my ten-day average should move around it. The trendweight app said I was gaining well over a pound a week last week, but that's coming back to someting sustainable.
Challenge Weight loss goal: Maintain between 142 - 148.
Actual Weight loss for the challenge: Well, at least by this metric I'm doing alright. To be honest, I have revised this goal and expanded it to 140-150.0 -

Challenge Starting Weight ~ 189.6
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 177.6 (revised)
March 23, 2019 ~ ….. 189.6…..
3/26-…..187.6 ….. Finally in the right direction. Going now to check out the butt exercises Tish gave the link to. No flat butt for me in this weight loss. I want CURVES and shape!
April 2, 2019- …..191.2 ….. I have been eating my emotions this past week. It’s got to stop!
4/09- …..190.0 …..Up & down this past week. This landed lower by miracle!
4/16- …..191.8…..Dealing with the death of my sister. I just can’t focus right now on any of my goals. I hope I can get back on track soon. I hope you all will be patient with me.
4/23- …..194.3 ….. Easter week & continued to eat in grief. Starting my way back this week to a new & better version of me. Healthier!
4/30- ….196.8. ….. I was hoping to be 6 lbs down this month & ended up over 6 lbs up. I’m going to work harder & smarter.
May 7- …..195.6 …..Weigh in just after Chinese Buffet & fluid retention. However, still showing a loss!
5/14- …..192.7….. I’m very pleased with this. I worked hard to meet a birthday goal & it payed off. Overate on Mother’s day but no weight gain because I got sick. Food poisoning? Yikes…..
5/21- …..194.0 …..Hanging my head in shame…….
5/28- …..195.1 …..Weighed morning after Holiday BBQ & guests. Back on track starting today.
June 4- ….194.8. ….. Better than last weigh-in but I know I can do better. I must be low on water or electrolytes. I’m not sure which. I woke up with severe cramping in my feet. Charlie Horses. I’m never sure which deficiency causes this.
6/11- …..195.9 …..Last minute unexplained gain. Lots of travel in upcoming week so I don’t hold out much hope for improvement but will stick to plan & exercise as best and as often as I can.
6/19- …..198.7….. 3 days of travel & restaurants this past week and it shows.
6/25- …..196.6 …..Back on track & keeping my eye on the prize!
July 2- …..193.6 ….. I am pretty sure I am fat adapted at this time. My hunger seems at bay. It also helps that I’ve no travel or trips lately. I do better at home & away from so many temptations……
7/09- …..195.7 ….. This is what the holiday looks like on me. Travel today. Restaurants & lots of sitting in the car. Ugggg.
7/16- …..194.2 ….. Yes, I can! I can do this!
7/23- …..196.8 ….. Up higher then moving back down. Yo-Yo. Enjoyed DGS’s birthday party this week & now I’m fighting the bloat, bulge & water retention. Travel tomorrow will NOT help, but I’m trying to stay as strong as I can.
7/30- …..199.7 …..Travel, Travel, Travel
August 6- …..199.0 ….. Really struggling!
8/13- …..196.6 ….. A quick overnight drop. I hope it sticks!
8/20- …..195.4 ….. When I’m working it, I’m working it hard. I must try harder more consistently, but this is a drop I really needed.
8/27- …..197.8 ….. Disgusted with myself after travel & restaurant yesterday turned into an all night free-for-all-binge. I gained almost 5 pounds overnight & completely erased any progress I had made. The next few days will be very strict & filled with activity. I deserve no less.
September 3- ….194.8. ….. Was doing even better then began creeping back up, some holiday weight, some unexplained. Today is a new Dawn & a new Day!

Hi, my name is Jenn and I am 39. I'm back for another round. The last one was not one of my best ones, only lost 3.5 pounds. With all of the holidays and vacations I bounced around the same 10 pounds. My lowest was 148 something and my highest was 157 something. So a new challenge and a new start!
Weigh in days will be Friday
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 3/20 151.8 my ending weight in the autumn challenge

3/29 ~ 150.1 was hoping to get out of the 150's but I am still here!
March EW: 150.1 Lost 1.7 pounds (10.1 pounds left)
April 5, 2019 ~ 148.1 loving this! staying focused this time and really trying to get below 145.
4/12 ~ 148.8 up just a bit this week, but had dinner out last night and a couple of beers
4/19 ~ 151.9 first day back from vacation. Was gone 5 days and didn't do terrible. Kinda of impressed with myself.
4/26 ~ 147.6 Good week so far. Luckily most of last week was water weight and sodium from vacation. Hopefully May will be a little better, but happy with April's progress.
April EW: 147.6 Lost 2.5 pounds (7.6 pounds left)
May 3 ~ 147.3 Only down 3/10 of a pound, but it was my anniversary this week.
5/10 ~ 146.5 New low and happy with this. Hopefully I am well out of the 150's.

Even though I won’t get to my goal at the beginning of the spring, I am still proud that I never gained weight week to week, despite some days that I indulged, which shows that it’s the overall trend that matters.
