05/03 270.2 Feeling pretty good about today. Made it through the first three days of low carb diet and went for a jog last night. Seeing a weight drop is really uplifting.

05/04 268.6 Worked last night. Nothing like a 13 hour shift to help get the blood moving!

05/05 268.2 Worked last night. So many steps! Today is run day, but I picked up a shift, so I'll be trying for my 5K at midnight. Eating is on point, and I feel really good about pretty much everything.

05/06 265.8 Holy crap! I expected to be up, since I spent all night cooking, meal prepping for the week. I logged every bite I took, and I guess it wasn't as much as I'd assumed. Ran 5K and now for a 13 hour shift.

05/07 266.0 Work was rough, and I ran that out for 1.5 miles. Saw a podiatrist. Turns outs one leg is shorter than the other! Weight is up a bit, and I'm weirdly glad. Dropping lbs so fast was making me nervous. I've got 'slow and steady' as my mantra, and I don't want to fall into the trap of craving a big loss every day.

05/08 265.4 A couple days off, and I'm still eating well. Doing my wakeup and bedtime routines. The fridge is packed with easy grab meals for the next week. Making the act of healthy choices the easiest one.

GW for this round: 146-147.2
***ROUND 76 (my 6th)***Day/Weight/Comment
SW this round (5/02): 149.2

05/03 147.8 Even though this is technically hitting my goal weight for this round, I'm going to keep my goal weight the same for now. Still going strong on my (temporary) keto plan, and I set movement alarms yesterday to reach 3744 steps. Two weekends to get through in this round, here we go! (Don't mess it up, don't mess it up...)
05/04 147 No complaints! Expecting it to bounce up again tomorrow. Everything is sitting like a lump in my stomach.
05/05 144.4 What?! Yesterday, I did a short aerobics workout, but it only balanced the extra 200 calories I ate, so I guess I have to credit keto for this? Boo, kind of. I like carbs!
05/06 145.6 Nothing big to report from yesterday- still keto, still within my calories. Did 2278 steps on a bad pain day, so I'm happy with my efforts yesterday.
05/07 145.6 Cruising along. Tomorrow I will be a week and a 1/2 into my keto month. There are lots of things I like about this way of eating, and so many things that are not sustainable for me in the long term, as I have learned previously. But I may be able to do a month off and on as I am losing. There are a lot of benefits for sure. Something to consider.
05/08 143.6 Um...

Day/Weight/Comment

05/03 182.0 lbs finally! 🎉 after very little loss the last couple of days I finally get to see a nice loss! Sticking to my calorie limit and substituting chocolate with apples finally seems to pay off!

05/04 181.1 lbs Whoa! Stayed within deficit, but not my calorie goal yesterday, so still pretty happy about this. Here’s to hoping yesterday won’t catch up with me!

05/05 181.0 lbs I struggle a lot on the weekends. I try not to be too hard on myself and allowing myself a piece of chocolate or two, even if it means going 100 or so over my calorie limit. So I’m more than happy with my weigh-in this morning. Goal for today: lots of water!

05/06 forgot to weigh in - had a friend over and just forgot about it. Had a glass of wine and high sodium foods, so a gain won’t be surprising.

05/07 181.4 lbs better than expected. Now back on track!

05/08 181.8 lbs Both the weekend catching up with me and the fact that I’m having PMS. After tracking food and weight for over a month now I can see a pattern. I might just not weigh in around this time of the month next month because it discourages me too much.

05/09 181.1 lbs back on track. Was still over calories yesterday and over carbs especially, but I did much better than the last couple of days.

Sat 04/05: 163.2: Goals: move more than yesterday, spring-clean bedroom ✅ Now I’ve developed a throaty head cold. Gotta get on top of this! Feel really washed out!
Sun 05/05: 163.6: Goals: Nurse my cold ✅ Too whacked to do much else My energy levels have been really low today. Sleeping a lot and having an early night.
Mon 06/05: 162.4: Goals: [/i]put the house back in order after being sick last week. ✅ I didn’t expect another drop so soon, but I have been largely under budget for the last week. [/i]
Tue 07/05: 162.6: Goals: Start prep for packing for trip to Croatia on Friday. ✅ knee and cold definitely on the mend.
Wed 08/05: 162.0: Goals: Shopping at the mall, remedial knee exercises. Sort out meds for the cold. ✅ Started packing. Knee held up well to a little more gentle walking at the mall.
Thu 09/05: 162.3: Goals: Finish packing; travel to Dublin for flight to Croatia early tomorrow morning; eat light; stay hydrated. I have been steadily losing now since Easter, despite my curtailed level of exercise. I am hoping to continue this trend when on holiday.

Tu 30/04: 165.8: Goals ✖️Woke up after a bad night. My knee is swollen and I can barely move with the pain. Not much appetite either. The weight gain is all the fluid round my knee joint. Once the knee is sorted it will go.

Th 02/05: 164.2: Goals: Move more than I did yesterday ✅ I am counting this as a successful result. The mobility in my knee is still improving and the water weight from the swelling has reduced.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• 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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 377.8 - I am going to try to set more realistic goals this 10 days and if I do better so be it. Going for 4 pounds. I am also going to be more committed to checking in and going to make it easier for me to do it. If I consistently lose 4 pounds every 10 days until the end of the year I will get under 300 pounds. That is a reasonable goals.
05/04 375.8

05/06 bad weekend no weigh in - going to bite the bullet in the morning.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 76 (round 8 for me !) Lets go again !!!

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it!

The last day I shall not be weighing in as we shall be flying out for the first day of our holiday in Italy. Need to do really well over the next 9 days .
Round goal - to weigh less at the end of the round than the start, I think maybe it's too ambitious to want to be in the 120's?

End of round 69 134.2 lbs
End of round 70 133.6
End of round 71 132.4
End of round 72 133.2
End of round 73 132.8
End of round 74 132
End of round 75 131.4

05/03 131.8 – walked 8 ¼ miles
05/04 131.4 - walked 8 miles
05/05 132.4 - walked 10 miles yesterday, was within calories, but loads of carbs so to be expected
05/06 132 - walked just under 14.5 miles yesterday, so loving North Yorkshire, but travel home again today so at least 3 hours in the car

05/07 131.2 – walked almost 5 ¼ miles yesterday
05/08 131.2 – just under 8 ½ miles walked yesterday, met up with my sisters under pressure to eat more, but stayed strong and using portion limitation stayed well within calorie limit.

05/09 130.2 – woohoo !! 8 miles walked yesterday – woke up starving hungry at 1.30 am!! but resisted the urge to get up and eat

End weight round 75 (first round for me) : 13 stone, 8lbs (190lbs) -3lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 13,10 - Ho hum. Start of Bank Holiday weekend so need to plan out food so I don't go off-track.
05/04 13,11 - Seriously irritated by this but too busy to get drawn into a funk. This is my heaviest workout day with a 2hr martial arts session including fight fitness which was a killer today. No car available so I had to bike there and back in the wind. On the up-side I have lots of calories to play with.
05/05 13,10 - Got up super early to do a car boot sale. Despite being busy I seem to have used up far to high a percentage of my calories before dinner.
05/06 13,10 Overate yesterday. Need to get back on track today
05/07 13,10 Went further off the track without a map. Back into routine today so should get sorted.
05/08 13,9 Does anyone else stare at the scales willing it downwards?
05/09 13,10 Not unexpected. Yesterday was a total disaster for food and the days before weren't much better so this was going to happen. Very annoyed at myself - but need to stop it here before it continues

05/08 - 201.0 - seems to be an unusually big drop. Food was good yesterday, also good exercise and water intake. Now to hold on to the loss.
05/09 - 200.2 - very good day yesterday.

Aiming to continue with the motivation and focus I had in the last round
Target for the round is to weigh in under 140 ........
Aiming to keep as active as possible - try to get in 10k steps everyday (if I'm not at the gym) by fitting in a quick lunchtime walk at work.

Its a Bank holiday weekend here in the UK so family dinner Sunday then friends round on Monday so going to be a tough start and a Sunday morning finish when I rarely weigh my lowest .... But these are excuses I guess not reasons so onwards and downwards. Here we go ............................


R76 start weight - 141.6lb

03/05 - 142.0lb (+0.4lb) Slightly up but not unusual for a Friday morning as we nearly always have home made burgers Thursday night so my carbs are higher than other days. Not worried as overall calories were all ok. Did 11k steps yesterday and so far today done a 2500 step walk and week 1 day 1 of C25k (going to try it and see if I can get to like running although I am doubtful and may end back on my bike - just wanted to try something else). Food all planned for the day too. Here's to a great Friday

04/05 - 141.4lb (-0.6lb) and there goes the burger bun!! 12k steps yesterday including my first C25K so that was all good. We've got a skip being delivered today so will be spending the weekend loading that up with building rubbish and clearing a bit more of the garden so plenty of exercise ahead and will no doubt ache lots by the time I go back to work Tuesday! Food planned for today so all looking good so far. Have a great weekend everyone and for those in the UK enjoy the long bank holiday weekend

05/05 - 141.2lb (-0.2lb)
06/05 - DNW
07/05 - 144.6lb (+ 3.4lb) I know this isn't real weight gain just a post bank holiday gain which consisted of a family roast dinner Sunday, friends round for dinner last night and I did have 3 G&T's over the weekend. Did also spend a large part of the weekend loading up a skip with builders rubble so got a good workout and definitely didn't drink enough water. Back to normal today - food planned and prepped and gym session tonight so its all good

08/05 - 142.0lb (-2.6lb) theres most of the weekend whoosh - as ever food prepped and planned, water bottle at my side ........ Carb heavier dinner (all within calories though) of baked potatoes and salad but still hoping for a drop tomorrow......

09/05 - 142.2lb (+0.2lb) as expected given my dinner last night. Been a "meh" round so far - nothing really moved - always amazes me how long it takes for your body to "get over" a weekend (even though it wasn't particularly indulgent and I did loads of activity). 3 days left of the round though to make a difference and aim to finish lower than I started - had hoped for under 140 but looks like I may have to save that for R77.... Food prepped for the day and gym PT session tonight ...

Goal: will this be the round to mark GW2? Was hoping that since round 71. Let's see.

05/03-94.6kg and 4,300 steps. Today is a good day, becuase today I get to mark Mini GW2! Been waiting for it for long, and probably not a good idea to start a round low, but I'm taking it with both hands! Woohoo!
05/04-94.6kg and 5,500 steps. Nice and steady. Should walk more.

05/03 – 197.6 I am not sure what is going on, but will go with the flow. I did lots of activities yesterday.
05/04 – 197.8 I have to trust this is just from all the extra hard work I have put in, feeling stiff again today. This will go the other direction again.
05/05 – 196.6
05/06 – 196.8 Oh this is annoying, I have to figure something out.

This is going to be a rough challenge, actually this whole month is going to be hard. With a camping trip thrown in at the very end. I'm going to stick with it though! I would love to see the 170's before the end of this round. Good luck everyone

05/03: 181.6 Down a little from yesterday, hopefully that's a good sign for this challenge!
05/04: 182.4 Up and down. That's ok. Happy Saturday!
05/05: 185.4 WHAT?! We are doing an antique and collectible show this weekend and it's hard work. I'm sore and have made horrible food choices. Still didn't expect that much gain. Today is the last day of it.
05/06: 184.2 A little drop. The show is over, we didn't get home til 10 pm last night. My hands and feet are incredibly swollen and I am super sore lol. These shows kick my kitten every time. This big one is only 2 times a year, thankfully. Back on track today.
05/07: 186.0 Back up today. I did good yesterday with calories. Not much water though. Still swollen.

Ending weight round 72 - 145.3
Ending weight round 73 - 143.7
Ending weight round 74 - 145.7
Ending weight round 75 - 145.9 Was down in the middle but ended the last day on a high.

UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's. Will see what's attainable when I get in the 130's

Goal for round 76 - track every morsel of food that goes in. Stay in tune to see what is going on with my body.

5/3 - 144.8. Nice whoosh for the first day of this round! Had a rough round 75 and ended high, looking forward to turning that around. Wins yesterday: RPM class, 4 miles of walking. Tracked every bit of food and liquid that I took in, just 30 calories over goal and drank a lot of water. Goal for today - continue the trend. Track everything!

5/4 - 144.6. Very surprised it’s not up, I’ll take it! Had a couple of beers last night and I’m not a regular drinker so I assumed it would go up due to bloating. Will hydrate well, stick to my calorie goal and exercise today in hope of flushing it out. Wins yesterday: tracked everything and only slightly over calorie goal, hydrated well, fit in a short HIIT workout even though I didn’t think I would have time.

5/5 144.4. I like these little drops! Wins yesterday: really hard HIIT workout, and a short bit of Zumba. Shorter dog walk (1.5 miles) due to weather. Hydrated well. Had dinner at a friend’s so couldn’t track well since I didn’t prepare it but did my best to watch portions as I know it was a heavier meal.

5/6 - 143.7. Matched the lowest I've been since I started the 10 day challenges, back at the end of round 73. Wins yesterday: 3.2 mile dog walk, yoga class, did some chores around the house and grocery shopped for the week. Hydrated well. Only went over calorie goal by about 50 calories, even with Oreos . Now that I see my low weight again I'm motivated to end this challenge lower than that.

5/7 -143.1. Big whooshes this round! I know from previous rounds it can be fleeting so I'm enjoying while I can. Wins yesterday: 5 mile run, 3.25 miles walking. Tracked everything, I thought I would be over a lot but ended up just 30 calories over target. Didn't hydrate as well as I should. Didn't sleep well so I'll be working hard today to not make poor decisions based on being tired.

5/8 - 144.0. Bodies are weird. Yesterday was a better day than the one before but I’m up almost a pound. Oh well, I know I did most things right. Wins yesterday: HIIT class and 2 mile walk. Hydrated decently, could do better but it was enough. Stayed right at calorie target. Will stay the course today and hopefully will come back down.

5/9 - 142.9. Bouncing all over the place the last few days! Wins yesterday: bodycombat and RPM classes. Hit calorie target. Hydrated ok but could have done better based on my activity level. Goal is to stay the course the next couple of days, because I have a lot going on this weekend and will be out of my normal routine. Didn’t sleep well again so will try not to give in to the tired cravings.

05/06 – 189.4 – I’ve been out of town some and not tracking food and it’s showing. I’m ready to be back on track. Hoping some of this is salt.
05/07 – 186.3 – SO happy, some of this came off already. I drank all my water for the first time in several days.
05/08 – 186.5 – still ok. I recorded all food, drank my water, no alcohol, and stayed under calories.
05/09 – 186.7 – went out for dinner but didn’t overdo it. Need to just keep working on it. It was easy to get off track, harder to get back where I was.

Day/Weight/Comment

05/03 – 142 – Holding steady!
05/04 - 142.5 - Typical weekend bump. It's fine.
05/05 - 143 - I did not eat great today, but I'll be back on the wagon tomorrow.
05/06 – 143.5 – Last Monday I was at 144.5, so I must not have done as much damage this weekend. (Unless it shows up tomorrow) Weight loss calories and water this week.
05/07 – 142.5 – Glad it’s dropping.
05/08 – 142 – One year ago today I started this challenge for Round 40 at 174 lbs. I’d lost 12 lbs. on my own the previous couple months and then got stuck for a couple weeks. I was hoping this group could keep me focused and help me lose the weight I’d been actually trying to lose for over 17 years. Well, it worked. I’ve certainly had my ups and downs, literally, with my weight this past year, but reading all your posts and taking some advice I’ve learned here has made this weight loss stick this time. The most helpful lessons I’ve learned are: Drink water, take body measurements, excess carbs in a meal will cause temporary weight gain, drink water, expect fluctuations for no good reason, measure and weigh food, and drink plenty of water! Thank you to all!
05/09 – 143 – Expect fluctuations for no good reason! On the plus side, I had a Dr. appt. yesterday and I weighed 145, fully dressed, after I had eaten lunch. Also, since my weight loss, my blood pressure has been so good that I haven’t had to take blood pressure pills for the past 10 months and it was confirmed yesterday.

05/03-166.4 feeling a little down about this number, I know its salt and the fact that I ate more yesterday (sill in calorie deficit) but it feels crumby to basically go back to the end of round 74...today is probably goint to include a "cheat meal" we are foinf to a retirement party
05/04-167.4 womp womp although I ate out I made decent choices, surprisingly in better spirits today, gonna get back to work
05/05-166 that feels a lot better! Walked so much yesterday, played outside with the kids. Today might be hard, a confirmation party and a birthday party…
05/06-166.4 😠 I guess this wouldnt bother me if i thought I should be up today. I ate well all weekend and when i had "cheat meals" i still made good choices. Well im gonna be eating at home for the majority of the week so im hoping I might still see a loss this round
05/07--165.4 sorry ive been so grumpy, just gotta stick with it.

OSW: 201lb
GW: 168lb (12 stone)
Next sub-GW: 182lb (13 stone)
Round Goal (my first round!): -3lb

(My scales round to the nearest pound)

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 - 187lb - had take out the night before so this is actually a 1lb gain on the previous day.
05/04 - 186lb - back to what I was on 05/02 which makes sense
05/05 - 185lb - unexpected but yay! Had a good day with lots of walking yesterday and made a delicious (for my cooking anyway) low-calorie adapted Moussaka.
05/06 - 185lb - reasonably good day yesterday, stayed well within calorie goal and went for a walk.
05/07 - 185lb (though the scales jumped between 184 and 185 a couple of times so can't be too far off!). Good day yesterday again, made it to the gym though my back isn't too happy about that. Eating out this evening so we will see what that does to this number...
05/08 - 187lb - yep I deserve that. Massive meal, cider, loads of salt and I forgot to weigh in before I drank half a pint of water... It'll drop in a day or two but yeahhhh that's a bump.
05/09 - 184 lb - wowza! I knew yesterday's was artificially high but didn't expect a 3lb change! I'll take it . Might be slightly artificially low as I feel thirsty but we will find out tomorrow!

Day/Weight/Comment

05/03 - 156.2
I've been reading a bit about the dangers of obsessive tracking (which I've been doing for 4 years, even through gaining periods) and the imprecision of determining caloric content of foods and burn through exercise. So I'm experimenting this round with not counting calories but simply paying attention to what I eat, how much, and when. We'll see what happens.

05/04 - 159.4
Okay, I’m officially upset and befuddled. I did have 2 pieces of pizza last night, but come on. This is the heaviest I’ve been in a couple of years, and although my clothes still fit, I am most unhappy. I don’t think it’s even possible to gain 9 pounds in a month. Going into bunny rabbit mode for a while.

05/05 - 157
At least that's headed in the right direction.

05/06 - 156.2
Yesterday was a good day, mainly because I didn't cave in to snacking and I was outside a lot in the beautiful Spring sunshine. Today is a little gloomy, but that's ok, I have flowers to plant.

I’ve gotten a day off somehow, so catching up. I think today is today!

05/09 - 156.4
Rainy day today, so I'm off to the Y.

05/09 - 155.1 - A blip up. I was over my calories, but still in deficit so I'm curious. But we did go to hibachi last night. I got the salmon. Had a little rice (maybe a half a cup's worth) and ate vegetables and salmon. I still have more than half my dinner left (eating for lunch). Maybe it's just salt as I know from other hibachi places, they use quite a bit. No worries, I'm not up a ton and still doing well. If I stay this exact weight until the end of the round, I'll still be at my lowest end-of-round weight (: Progress is progress. Plus, my stomach doesn't look quite as bloated as normal so I'll take it! NSV: my belt fits on the tightest loop again! Its very hit and miss that it happens but usually the second to last is most comfortable. Now its too loose!!!

Previous day's comments for R76

05/03 - Its Friday. Its been a mentally draining week and I could not keep up with nutrition the way I needed to. Had to take a step back and get my mind right and that meant sacrificing some of my focus on tracking, planning, and preparing. Hopefully today will go a little smoother and I can get back to focusing on getting even better things in my body. Don't have anything good at work for lunch so it won't be a great day, but if I can keep my mind in the right spot, I can move forward from here (:

05/06 - I want to be excited about this weight but I know its a false low. I was so nauseous yesterday that even drinking water make me throw up. Didn't eat anything until about 8pm (after drinking ginger ale to calm me down) and even then, it wasn't a lot. I'm so dehydrated right now. I just hope when I bounce back, it won't be terribly high. I feel okay-ish now but barely any sleep. Stupid storms. Supposed to storm all night tonight and tomorrow night so hopefully they aren't as crazy as last night and I can sleep through
05/07 - There it is! I actually feel much better about this because I was worried once I started eating and drinking again, it'd be much higher. I didn't eat well (mostly carbs) but they helped absorb some of the icky stomach acid that is destroying my world right now. But I'm hopefully a little closer to back on track today (: Still no good sleep, two different storms came through last night (not including the one with hail earlier in the evening when I got home). Storms/rain all day today and storms all night tonight again. I feel so weak and tired and unfocused. Hopefully this ends soon.
05/08 - I'm all over the place. Hopefully this sticks. Have a semi-okay lunch but I haven't been grocery shopping lately to get anything good. Water needs to pick up but our water fountains are out of service at work so I can't refill my water bottle unless I use the sink (ick). Hopefully today they're working. Actually got some sleep last night. Not a ton, but way better. Storms tonight are supposedly early in the evening and giving away to rain overnight and that may help. Mentally been struggling these last few days though ): Hopefully I'll bounce back soon.
