Day/Weight/Comment
03/24 - 289.4 - I walked to church this morning and was glad I made it up the steep hill. I'm getting stronger. It still took my breath away, but the stairs up to the church posed no problem. I plan on walking in an hour for about an hour. Only 14 more pounds to my next milestone goal.
03/25 - NW - I plan to go walking later today. I always think I can't do it, then I prove myself wrong. I've been hitting my active hours as well on my Fitbit. I'm feeling more hungry today for some reason. I'm thinking of eating my snack earlier instead of later. Food is still on point.
03/26 - 291.6 - Not sure what happened. My period is kinda lingering so that could be the source. I didn't get any exercise in, but I did get some more cleaning done. Food is still doing good. I've added in chopped spinach to my meals.
03/27 - 288.4 - Most likely just water weight yesterday. It's gone. Food is going good today. I added in turkey sausage to my breakfast for some extra protein. I have also increased the size of my evening snack as I think my calories were dipping too low. I have been busy cleaning again today in preparation for the housekeeping inspection tomorrow. If my package arrives early enough I will go for a walk around the community the room later.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/24 - 166.8 - did w1d1 of c25k for the 2nd time ( repeating 1st week to avoid moving too fast).
03/25 - 167.8 - Gained from the day before as I had a little too much fun for Sunday Funday
woke up early for a short Core workout and walked 35 min on my lunch break. PM workout included some more core strength workout using a Noelle Benepe circuit (check her out on Instagram) and a 20 min cardio video
03/26 - 166.4 - have to go home on my lunch break so no walk at lunch time today. Plan to do W1D2 of C25k this evening. It is a beautiful sunny spring day. Chilly, but sunny. Will also do another round of NB's core strength workout. I am working on my core to improve my balance in the tack (horseback riding...dressage).
03/27 - 165.8 - did what I said I would yesterday so thats good. W1D2 was repeated although it was tough because I didn't have my correct running shoes on. Again no walk on lunch break today because I had to go home. Will walk tonight 30 min and do a lot of stretching. Have bursitis in my hip that is flaring up so need to do some hip stretches. Had leftover porkchops and rice from dinner last night so had that for a very filling, low calorie lunch...under 300 cal...followed by a brownie LOL oops. It was worth it though.

03/24 205.5 Had barn day yesterday. Put in almost 13k steps but probably negated it with Mexican lunch and a huge margarita. Need to start daily bike riding or walking again.
03/25 DNW I was running late this morning (on purpose) and was dressed before I realized I hadn’t weighed in. Need to track, track, track to get myself back in the habit.
03/26 206.7 Stressed out to the max. Do really good with eating at work but lose absolute control at home. Never fails. First horse show of the year starts next Wednesday. Let’s hope my chaps fit. Ugh!
03/27 209.5 So, I got tired of having to sneak downstairs to weigh-in then going back upstairs to get ready for work. I decided to just get on the scale this morning in my work uniform. My weight looks MORE but 5 days per week it should be "normal" since I wear a uniform and it's basically the 'same' every weekday. Still struggling to track 100% of what I put in my mouth but I'm always a work-in-progress.
03/28 - I can already report for "tomorrow" that I went for a 1-mile walk after I got home Weds night and it felt GREAT to be outside.

03/27 209.5 Let's try this again. I had already posted for today but apparently my Dad's laptop has a mind of it's own and I lost it all. I weighed in this morning in my work uniform. It was just easier than zooming downstairs in my skivvies and then going back up to get ready for work. It'll even itself out as I get into a routine. I am still not logging 100% of what I put in my mouth but I am always a work-in-progress.

Tough emotional times ahead. Joining only to make sure it's easier to get back in the saddle after this. Let's hope I don't wipe out Mini GW1.
03/24 - 96.7 yesterday was so stressful had to eat the entire house. Fingers crossed for better behavior today
03/25 - 95.6 The best way to be rewarded for good behaviour is to see it on the scale I know it is just water for having no carbs and other water retention stuff, and it will probably not stick too long as is (or stick too long XD and plateau). Anyway great way to get motivated to get back on track.
03/26 - 95.6 Happy to see this number again! Was semi-behaving yesterday. Proud I manage to control myself this period at all.
03/27 - 96.0 Binging is back. Really not in the mood to behave.

GW for this round 153 (151.6 as a woohoo but probably not gonna happen yet goal)
Round 72 (my 2nd) Day/Weight/Comment
03/24 152.6 This makes 5.2 down since I started this challenge, and 2.8 down overnight! Now that's the week 1 whoosh I'd hoped for and never got. I exercised and ate some calories back, had my usual ice cream bar and even three squares of caramel dark chocolate yesterday! I also looked up the calories in my favorite bakery cookies and discovered to my horror that each one has over 500 calories! I used to eat several in the course of a day. Maybe I can have one occasionally on maintenance, but I am so glad I'm not blindly stuffing my face now!
I feel like tracking on MFP has revealed that holy grail of successful weight loss: moderation. I'm finally empowered to enjoy treats in moderation, guilt-free. Other big lessons so far: I must practice patience (this is all gonna go way more slowly than I'd like!), and I can't freak out when the numbers on the scale go up or plateau. It's all part of this nonlinear process.
My original goal weight for this round was 153.8, but I'm lower than that today, so I've revised the goal to be 151.8. That's only 1 lb in the next 10 days, slow and steady.
03/25 154.8 Well, it's to be expected. I may bounce up and down over the next few days. I ended the last round at 155.4, and that's probably closer to the truth. 153 still feels attainable for this round. Focusing on lots of hydration and staying in my calorie range while getting as close to my protein macros as possible.
03/26 155.6. Sigh. Okay. I ate super salty foods yesterday and I know this isn't a true reflection of what's going on. My pants feel looser, at least! My 153 goal for this round seems less likely bu the day, but there are still 7 days left. A lot can happen.
03/27 155.6. All right, as long as I don't gain, this means I'm basically maintaining what I've lost so far. Still down more than 2 lbs, and more importantly, I'm feeling better than I have in a while about my ability to stick with something. I have to admit, knowing I'm posting here every day makes a difference! I clearly need this level of accountability.

03/24 208#. I need to work more on drinking enough water. Is it your weight ÷ 2= ?? Ounces/day? I'm 5.4# away from my lowest weight. Today is day 23 of logging my food. I have officially beat my hubby! I'd he doesn't watch it, I'll pass him on this weight loss stuff. LOL! I did over stuff myself at supper. Homemade pizza. It was so good! Not feeling so good now. 3,808 steps. 124 oz water. 1,325 calories.
03/25 208.4#. My cravings were bad tonight. I went over on my calories. Thank goodness for Zumba! 2,161 calories in pre workout. 9,999 steps.
03/26 210#. I am a bit surprised by this big of a jump.
03/27 208.4#. COMPLETELY blew my calorie intake for today. The last 3 days I have had terrible munchies. Tomorrow I should only eat when my body is truly hungry.

@donalowen Yes, I find IFing *so* much easier with black coffee! I used to belong to some IF groups that preach only a "clean" fast of black coffee and water because a lot of people find it's easier to fast if you avoid spiking insulin. I say, whatever works, but I definitely get hungrier if I don't keep my coffee black.3 -

Yeah, I’m finally on Page 15 of the posts.
@quiltingjaine I saw that when I looked it up! Not for us keto or low carbers! I thought maybe it was just flax seed lightly sweetened with stevia or something. More like bars or loose granola. Not for me but maybe helpful to others on a different plan than me.1 -

03/27 243.0 went to another evening event...ate before I left and didn’t have any trouble avoiding the buffet. I’m not sure if it is all the protein or the chia seeds but everything is going really well so far...don’t want to jinx it though!

03/28 - 79,7 - Soooo... I've been binging this past week so this was expected... I was really lonely and stressed out this week. I was terrified to step on the scale (because I was scared of this result), but I knew I had to do it to get back on track. Hopefully I can still turn this around but I'm not sure at this moment. I feel defeated.
