04/18/19- 168.4 Glad to be down some. Itβs the week before my TOM. I just computed my average weight so far for this round, and itβs 167.96, so Iβm on target to make my goal, if not surpass it. Plus, Spring Break is now here!
04/17/19- 169 I drank a cup of water before I remembered to weigh this morning, so that number may be more like 168.8. Must be retaining water from the leg workout yesterday.
04/16/19- 167.6 I havenβt slept well the past 2 nights. Iβm getting ready to cut my caffeine in half.
04/15/19- 166.8. I think this is my lowest weight yet. I ate a salad for lunch yesterday, and watched my sodium intake. When I hit 165.5, that will be 40 total pounds lost. Would love for that to happen on this round!
04/14/19- 168.4 Itβs okay. Went to Outback for lunch, and ate my entire baked potato. It was well worth the uptick. I was back on track today.
04/13/19- 167.6 Wow! Good start for the round!

I love this challenge but I am going to take one or two off. I'm very stuck in my weight loss journey and feeling very frustrated. I had thought this was helping me, but I've changed a few things and haven't seen a weight loss. I'm going to stop weighing every day and just see how it goes. I will still track food and exercise regularly just stop weighing every day. I might check in with the thread because I'm a little caught up in some of your lives
Good luck people. Keep up the good fight.
As long as you are not giving up Sweetie!! Good luck to you too! you will find your way. Mix things up. When you come to a set point weight that is what you have to do sometime after losing a substantial amount of weight. You can do it!! Hope to see you soon! :flowerforyou:

Day/Weight/Comment
04/13 - 140.7 I believe this is the TOM drop I was waiting for in the last challenge, better late than never. I also cut white carbs yesterday that I had been eating through the previous week. -1.1lbs
04/14 - 140.7 I guess it has to slow down at some point. My diet was on point and I met my exercise goal yesterday as well. I also drank a ton of water yesterday (12cups). Not sure why the stall. Will see what tomorrow brings.
04/15 - 140 I did weigh in 3 hours later than normal so might be a little off but progress nonetheless.
04/16 - 140.7 I thought it might be up a little because of yesterdayβs late weigh in possibly skewing numbers but I didnβt think Iβd be back up where I was the day before. I have been doing a lot of strength training, maybe Iβm retaining water. Either way Iβm still on track. NSVs are abundant. I look much better in clothes than I did when I weighed less. I am also seeing noticeable changes in my strength and muscle mass. Hopefully Iβll see a drop on the scale tomorrow but either way Iβm doing good! πͺπ»
04/17 - 140.2 I was expecting a little more but itβs a loss so I canβt complain. Looking forward to getting back into the 130s!
04/18 - 140.2 Just happy I didnβt gain with the taquitos I ate last night. π€

Yesterday: πΆββοΈπββοΈπ₯π§π«π·
This round is going to be tough. Two weekends including Easter, when I'll be going back to London to pack up our house for the move while catching up with friends and a desperately needed date night with DH.
I'm reinstating some moderate goals, but left some out that I know I won't be managing this round.
R73 EW: 71.7kg
Sat 04/13 71.5kg - πΆββοΈ13kπ· 2300+cals in, 650 fitbit adjust, 8-900over
Picking up new car, yay! Steps will probably be quite low today, 2hr train ride to car, meet SIL and a couple of friends for lunch, then 2.5hr drive back home, dinner out...
Sun 04/14 - 71.5kg πΆββοΈ8kπ· didn't log cals, 315 fitbit adjust
I have a car! This is so exciting. It will negatively impact on my steps, but it also means I save 30mins each way to work, so I can start my morning runs again. And overall a new way of living ππ
Yesterday wasn't too bad foodwise, a few road trip snacks (easter eggs) and ice cream after dinner. I estimated very generously, so cals might well have been lower.
Today, went for brunch, but very civilised, then Ikea before I dropped off my SIL at the airport. I didn't eat much, but had a few more Easter eggs - to finish them before the new week.
Mon 04/15 71.0kg πΆββοΈ10k πββοΈ2k π§π· 1422 cals in, 447 fitbit adjust, 315 deficit
What a nice surprise this morning! Day was good food-wise, went for a brief lunch time walk and a 2k run - I really need to do some work to get back into running...
Tue 04/16 71.3kg no goals achieved, oops
Dinner with work, it was tapas style dinner but loads of different cuisines. I just estimated 1000cals for it.
I only did 3000 steps, this is my new reality, driving to and from work, plus no time for a lunch walk... Definitley don't want that to be the norm.
Wed 04/17 71.4kg 1713 cals in, 306 fitbit adjust, 178 over, 7k steps today
Weight is going the wrong direction, but not really surprising.
I favoured sleep over run or yoga again in the morning. I'm finding it really difficult to find an end to my day in the evening as they seem so short.
Food was acceptable, too much sugar, but not terrible. Ikea trip after work upped my steps, but still not made the 10k.
Thu 04/18 71.4kg cals over (wine and snacks), 7k steps
It's ok if I maintain this round. It's been a hectic week and the weekend will be no better. At work I needed chocolate and tonight I needed some wine! But at least I should get my steps in over Easter.

Bridie giving this another go!
SW: 118.5kg
CW: 81.5kg
GW for this round: Under 80kg.
End GW: 70-72kg.
My weight has been all over the place this last week with my period. After having plataued on 80.6kg for 4 days prior to this, it shot up to 81.6kg over the past couple of days. Really want to focus hard these 10 days on a strong weight loss as my June trip is coming close and I've worked hard to get as close to my end goal weight as I can for it!
Day/Weight/Comment
04/13: 81.5kg.
04/14: 80.5kg. Yesterday was eating well, gardening and doing 15000 steps. I am feeling it today! Wondering if THIS is the bounce back to my pre-period rate or if my weight will move up again tommorrow.
04/15: 80.7kg. Not as much as a bounce up as could have been. Lots of gardening and walking. Now, back into the work week!
04/16: 80.3kg. Glad to be moving down but really getting tired of being stuck in the 80 point dots. Managed to do my 10000 steps even with a sudden double shift.
04/17: 80.2kg. Arg. and, yay. But arg. 10,000 steps, calories on point.
04/18: 80.0kg. Doing all the right things. Seeing the results. 70s still proving veeery hard to break. Tommorrow, maybe? Maybe...
04/19: 79.8kg. So shed a little tear over this this morning. Somehow, the weight loss only seems real now. This feels very much the homeward stretch from here on in. I won't get down into my goal weight range by my trip (June 1st) as I've aimed for since the beginning of this journey, however it's very much an 'aim for the moon as even if you miss you'll land amongst the stars' scenario. Three days to go this round, lets see if I can solidify in the 79 point dots.

Round 72 -1.8 pounds 349-347.2
Round 73 -3.6 pounds 347.2-343.6
RSW 343.6
I was really happy with last round and Iβm continuing a few goals
Water! I get sloppy when it comes to water
Lower sodium
Keep up with walking, maybe I can hit another 5k steps
04/13 345.2 I was out of control with my sodium yesterday and a little over calories too. Add in that after I posted yesterday I pulled a few muscles in my leg and the water weight was inevitable. Iβm resting today and Iβm sure Iβll see it all drop off again in a few days.
04/14 344.2 First of what Iβm sure will be several drops. I have a lowish sodium week planned. If I stay on course I should be to close to 340 by end of round.
04/15 343.4 And now a little below my round start weight. Hopefully Iβll see a little more loss over the next few days.
04/16 343
04/17 342.4 Iβm a little surprised because of spasticity in my leg causing me some trouble. I was far less mobile yesterday because of it and I thought for sure Iβd see some water retention. My odd nsv yesterday was my husband noticing that itβs already easier for him to help me up.
04/18. 341.6 And now Iβm past forty pounds lost.

REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Round three for me! We're in spring break at school and I have a lot on my calendar. We'll be celebrating my boyfriend's birthday, going to an MLB game, travelling to spend time with friends and their new baby, and gathering with family for Easter. This time, I'd like to average 100,000 steps for the ten days, so I'll need to add extra walking on days we're not driving. I'm not looking to actively lose weight this round, but I'd like to maintain my hard work from the last two rounds.

GW: 160 lb (I'll probably re-evaluate when I get there, but I remember being pretty comfortable at that weight)
Day/Weight/Comment
04/13 184.6 lb Holding steady! No workout yesterday due to a meeting that went long and unanticipated traffic on the way home. I had to get home to walk the pup! I tracked 11,415 steps. Take-out Thai food was dinner and I ate lightly throughout the day to not blow-out my calorie goals. I expect some sort of gain in the next couple of days due to planned events with high-calorie foods options.
04/14 184.6 lb Still looking good. I only tracked 5,150 steps yesterday so I'll need to take the dog out for a long walk later. We went out for lunch and it ended up being my only meal of the day and that allowed me to meet my calorie goals. Again, I'm anticipating a gain in the next couple of check-ins. We're heading to a baseball game this afternoon and I'm making a key lime pie for my boyfriend's birthday.
04/15 185.6 lb I ate so much junk yesterday. Bagel and cream cheese for breakfast, sausage and peppers and beer for lunch at the game (Go Red Sox!), and pizza, key lime pie, and GOT whiskey for dinner. Good thing birthdays only happen once a year. π I wish I checked my Fitbit before I took it off because it had tracked 9,982 steps. There's something about seeing the number go over 10,000 that I really enjoy. I've got three days of light eating planned and then we're off travelling for a few days.
04/16 187.0 lb Not surprised. I tracked 10,015 steps yesterday and went a little over my calorie goals. I'm definitely going to the gym this afternoon and walking the dog this morning because we're planning on going out for dinner. We put a water filter on our kitchen tap because the water was very metallic tasting, so I'm sure my water intake will be up. I'm looking for no gain tomorrow!
04/17 187.0 lb No gain! I had tons of water, tracked 13,598 steps, and burned about 300 calories at the gym. I've tracked a little over 50,000 steps for the last five days, so I'm on track to meet my step goal. I ate lightly throughout the day to help out my dinner calories, but I got a Long Island iced tea that I regret. It was all sour mix and not worth the calories. π More dog walking and another gym visit planned for this afternoon and then pub trivia with the family!
04/18 188.0 lb Yup. Beer and buffalo chicken sandwich for dinner. 15,315 steps tracked and about 40 minutes at the gym on the elliptical yesterday. Travelled 6 hours today and ate garbage food all day. I'm already looking forward to the next round to lose what I gained this round.

@tlsteddyo
I only record water, I do drink tea and add the 'bag' to my meal or snack, as a reminder of what I have consumed each day.
I do not drink coffee or pop (soda). If I did I would record them with the meal/snack.
I did take time to slowly increase my water intake. Sometimes it is a challenge to drink enough water. I started with a glass first thing in the morning and one at each meal. I also keep a water bottle with me at work. I slowly I creased my glass size to 14 oz each meal and 24 oz water bottle. For a change I add a slice of lemon or lime to my water.6 -
Very good albiet crazy day, but I am now very tired. Have a 3 day weekend, which I really need. Am going to try to be particularly good the next couple days in anticipation of Easter.
My weight is still bouncing around, but the trend is downward.

Goal for this challenge -3lbs
βͺ04/13 187.6β¬ lbs
βͺ04/14 186.3β¬ lbs goal for today: walk at least an hour and track water
βͺ04/15 186.6β¬ lbs had a bad day yesterday with cramps and back pain, so not much activity. Food-wise it was an ok weekend. Looking at Monday motivated!
βͺ04/16 186.1β¬ lbs Yesterday was a very good day exercise wise and also food wise. Even had some calories left over for a piece of chocolate (and stayed under my carbs goal! Yay!). Letβs do this again today!
04/17 184.8 lbs What a nice drop! Hopefully I can keep it. Made a semi-smart choice at the restaurant yesterday (very satisfying Couscous-Vegetable Stir-fry, left me with little calories for the rest of the day, but I got through with vegetables and fruit), so I will have to work on that.
04/18 184.6 lbs - wow! After having two scoops of ice cream with my son yesterday afternoon I was sure I was going to see a gain today. But I guess staying within my calorie limit and only eating veggies for dinner serves its purpose! Goal for today: going to the gym and finally tracking my water intake!
04/19 184.2 lbs never thought I was going to see another loss today. Did a lot of guessing yesterday and was a tiny bit over my calorie limit, but Iβll take it! Also did achieve both goals yesterday. Today involves a lot of cleaning, baking and preparing food for the upcoming Easter celebration. Weβll see how I do with all this delicious food around.

Hoping this round is as good as the last one! Going to be tough as away at daughters for a coupe of days followed by Easter weekend at the girls cheerleading competition so 4 nights staying away with eating out, socialising, hotel food and time on the road. I wont be here for the end of the round so going to stay focused until then.....
With my loss in R73 it must slow down soon - Target for my (short) round is to get to 143.xx
R74 start weight - 144.8lb
04/13 - 144.3lb (-0.5lb) Happy with that start to the round Aiming to stay focused over the weekend and drink plenty of water
04/14 - 144.4lb (+0.1lb) OK with this - late dinner last night which was a carb heavier dinner than normal (home made chicken curry with rice and naan) but all within calories and macros for the day though. Big family Easter dinner this evening as we're away next weekend - don't intend to go mad but will treat myself to a glass of wine and a few chocolates and enjoy them
04/15 - 145.2lb (+0.8lb) OK with this after last nights family dinner and not unusual for weight to be up on a Monday All set for a good day and week ahead - fridge stocked, meals planned - off we go!!!
04/16 - 144.4lb (-0.8lb) So back where I was Sunday morning so happy with that. All set for today, gym session tonight..... Looking forward to seeing the weight continue to come off.....
04/17 - 144.5lb (+0.1lb) Bit disappointed - should've stayed in round 73! No reason for it as within calories and macros - can only think its my body deciding that it lost enough last round so going to stabilise for a bit (if that is even a reason????) I shall continue though and make the most of these last couple of days at home before we head away for the weekend (which won't be so easy ......)
04/18 - 144.4lb (-0.1lb) Lost the same 0.1lb again! Massive weight loss in R73 and now back to the see-saw again - only today left for me in this round but good food day planned and a gym session tonight (will weigh in early tomorrow morning before we go) but then 3 days of hotels, miles on the road and eating out as away for the girls cheerleading competition ...... Gonna be tough! Have a great Easter everyone
04/19 - 144.2lb (-0.2lb) An early weigh in and now on the road. Happy with a loss today and intend to make the wisest choices I can over the weekend whike still enjoying the social side and a glass of wine with dinner! Round loss 0.6lb which is OK but wanted more ....
Happy Easter and see you all next round x
