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 - 156.2
Lovely potluck last night - amazingly, no sweets, but lots of good stuff. Today should be a light food day! Have a lovely weekend, all!

I haven't participated since round 38. Clearly I did better with you lovely folks.
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!

Round 76 (my 8th)Round 69 TL: -3.6 pounds 360- 356.4OSW 382
Round70 TL -3.6 pounds 356.4 - 352.8
Round 71 -3.8 pounds 352.8-349
Round 72 -1.8 pounds 349-347.2
Round 73 -3.6 pounds 347.2-343.6
Round 74 -4.4 pounds 343.6-339.2
Round 75 -3.4 pounds 339.2-335.8
RSW 335.8
If all goes well this round I will be within fractions of a pound from a 50 pound loss. My goal this round is to get as close to that marker as possible.
05/03 335.8 Staying the same is fine with me. I had a higher sodium day yesterday and am having back spams since late last night. My energy level is back up, which will be nice once my back lets up.
05/04 334.8 There’s the after tom drop. My back is doing a lot better after a day of tlc and I’ll probably take it easy again today. Today is family movie day and I’m hopeful of limiting or even avoiding the popcorn this time.

Hi I’m Karen.
USW-187 Sept. 2018
UGW-135
Goal this round-157
5/3-159-Good way to start the round. I made bad food choices last weekend and did not exercise at all and it took me until Friday to get back in the swing of things. I have been walking my rear off and it’s paying off. I scheduled a massage for this morning and I am glad to be treating myself to it after this loss.
5/4-162-Not much walking and some heavy food. I will get out and do my long walk before I get in the car for the day.
I am so glad you are all here.😊☕️9 -

05/03 - 264.0 - Not a bad way to start of a new set of 10 days. I'm still trying to maintain my diet and exercise despite my symptoms that continue to get worse. I had to sign a no harm contract with my CSS. We have moved up my appointment with my psychiatrist, somewhat. It was for five weeks, now it's for four weeks. I'll just keep plugging away.
05/04 - 265.0 - Eh. Don't care. I did a couple of episodes of Zombies, Run! yesterday, and some lifting for a bit. I will probably repeat tonight. Right now I'm doing my homework for my CSS. I'm reading in a Nutrition Essentials book and have to write a report on what I read by Monday. Still having my mental symptoms, but still going on regardless. I also need to crochet this week, my grandmother's birthday is coming up.

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.

I am a 50 year old 5'5" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.
I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. I have been participating in this challenge since Round 40.

Round 75 - SW - 179.4 EW - 178.2 - Average weight over 10 days - 178.4
May 3 - 175.2 - I started swim lessons last night again. I haven’t been in the water since my last set ended in August. This is a stroke improvement class and this instructor is probably the best I have had. Weight is funnily low today, not sure how much I trust it, but it was nice to see.
May 4 - 179.4 - I don’t believe my scales anymore. I have changed the battery and the fluctuations are still a bit insane. I guess I’ll have to break down and get another one. I was expecting to be a bit up today though because yesterday was not a good eating day.8 -

05/04 - 312.2/ still feeling good. Working on writing when I want to eat so I can try to evaluate if I'm actually hungry or if it's a bored/emotional/binge thing. So far that's helping, I think...

I did 14 minutes on my brother’s elliptical (he lives next door). Kitchen remodel still in full swing. No stove, no sinks & I can’t get to the refrigerator well. I moved the microwave to a different location & can warm some frozen dinners from my garage freezer, but the carbs do not fall in line with what I wanted. Otherwise, I am trying to be careful & mindful. What’s done so far in the room is looking fantastic. They will be back on Monday, so at least I can get to my fridge over the weekend. Still no sink or water, but they plugged in the stove for me when they left at 4:30. I hope you all will have a fabulous round. I expect another challenging round for me between the celebrations & the remodel but my jeans were tight putting them on today so I have renewed motivation! I dropped .2 pounds today, could be water, could be worry! Good luck everyone!
05/04 ….. 196.2….. Whoosh, there it is! Finally the deficits are rearing their LOVELY head! Yesterdays Stats: 1384 Calories In / 2223 Calories out. 29 Net Carbs which included veggies & 4% cottage cheese. An administrative day mostly sitting at the desk. Not much movement which is difficult right now anyway. I can’t get through my kitchen & livingroom with the remodel & I can’t leave so movement will be at a minimum most days. 8407 Total Steps & 3.56 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 50 minutes. Finally I’m off the 3 hour per night streak!!!! Sunny & beautiful today. I hope to get some outside yard work in since the carpenter isn’t coming today.

Keep on keeping on everyone!!!

34th Round for me: Female 66, height 5’
Goals this round: Stay in the 150’s and hopefully end with 157something or lower. Keep daily movement up with yard work and house painting. Get a punch pass for the gym and go once a week at least to keep muscle. This month is so busy that that will be a challenge.
We are planning a trip the beginning of June to help with a new grandbaby (that should be good for a bit of a loss) but the real motivator is a family reunion mid-July; just under 10 weeks away. My family is mostly average weight and very nonjudgmental but it would be nice to feel more comfortable wearing a swim suit or shorts.Round 39 (1st for me) – SW 163, -.2Day/Weight/Comment

05/03 – 159.8 – No LNS last evening although I did eat dessert at supper. Woke up feeling so much better today. Lovely weather so I’m planning on moving perennials with some help from DH.
05/04 – 160.2 – Two cookies and some licorice (found by accident in the cupboard – of course I have to eat it??) and here I am feeling draggy again. Just have to get my head into a different plan for evenings. If I’m tired and unmotivated, I do stuff on the computer which leads to LNS which makes me start out the next day feeling rotten therefore even more likely to be discouraged the next evening, feeling tired, etc.

Heck yes I am back! I love this group!
Name: Lauren
Age: 30
Location: California
Height: 5'8
Background -I have been on the diet/wreckless food abandon cycle since I was 14 years old. It's the classic yo-yo dieter story. This last January I decided to make this the last time I'm losing that same 20 pounds by putting a greater emphasis on maintenance. So when I reached maintenance after round 71 I continued to stick around because this group is what really keeps my head in the game. So thank you all and especially the O.P. grandma Jackie 💜
HW (age 14) - 175 lb
SW Jan 2015 - 165 lb
lost down to 130 then gained back to 140 and within the last 8 months slipped back into bad habits
SW Jan 2019 - 147.5 lb
Maintenance goal range - 132-137 lb
R67-R75 results -R67 EW = 141 lb; ∆ = -2.2 lb
R68 EW = 138.2 lb; ∆ = -2.8 lb
R69 EW = 135 lb; ∆ = -3.2 lb
R70 EW = 134.8 lb; ∆ = -0.2 lb
R71 EW = 133.6 lb; ∆ = -1.2 lb
~Maintenance~
R72 10-day-average = 133.1 lb
R73 10-day-average = 133.04 lb
R74 *missed* 10-day-ave = 133.2 lb
R75 10-day-average = 133.1 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 131.8 t = 133.1
Having a really hard day. Just feeling emotionally empty. I don't know what's wrong with me, but it's got nothing to do with my weight or food so there's that. I just want to go to bed but I have to go back for a second shift in 3 hours. I'm going to try to take a nap. Thank God it's the weekend tomorrow. Just gotta power through.
05/04 131.6 t = 133
I slept in this morning and feel so much better! My weight being down is probably just reflective of the later weigh in time. I have not been doing my yoga so my goal for today is to do one yoga video.

Hi everyone! I love this challenge most of the time, but the ones that we have to end on a Sunday or Monday kill me, lol. Oh well, would love to see 146 something this round and to stay out of the 150's again. Ended high last round because of my anniversary dinner, but also saw new lows through out the challenge, so hopefully we can continue the downward trend.
EW Rnd 73: 148.8 (10 day Avg 149.51)
EW Rnd 74: 151.9 up a couple pounds because of vacation and Easter (no 10 day avg/didn't weigh 5 days)
EW Rnd 75: 148.8 (10 day Avg 148.41)
05/03 - 147.3 back down to Wednesdays weight before my bloody Mary sodium gain, lol. I am ending this week with a 3/10 of a pound loss. Not exactly what I was wanting, but it is a loss so I will take it. My 5 day average was down almost a whole pound, 8/10 of a pound to be exact, but still good. The weekend is here and all I want to do is stay under 150! Happy Friday everyone!
05/04 - 148.2 had a couple beers with dinner last night and ate super late, but ate super low calorie. Should be back down tomorrow. Water water and more water and no alcohol!

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

5/3 126.0 Flying to Oklahoma this evening. DH cut the area between 2 toes last night. We went to the ER around midnight and got home about 4AM. I got up at 6:45 to deliver my pot garden to the neighbor for care while we’re gone. Laid back down but didn’t sleep as DH started a load of wash. Got up delivered cat to sitter at 9:15. Bags are not packed - his job. Dragging his feet and I’m having an anxiety attack.
5/4 123.5 False low, I’m sure. Instead of weight around 5AM, very late weigh in - woke up after 10am. Arrived last night, needed some food. Waffle House bacon cheese burger, no bun, no fries with lettuce tomato and some pickles. I was exhausted and don’t even remember getting in bed!5 -
I am going to be continuing my diet break this challenge but it will end on Sunday and I’ll start at a deficit for the next 20 pounds! I’ve only gained 2.4 pounds during the diet break which is awesome!

05/03: 194.4 (Lost almost 2 pounds overnight and I’ve only gained 2.4 pounds during this diet break which is an awesome feat! Last night I did an upper body strength workout and had a chicken stir fry for dinner. Next Friday weigh in, I’ll be at a deficit so I can’t wait to see how long it takes to lose those pounds.)
05/04: 195.2 (I had a nice date night with the hubby at an Italian restaurant last night. I had a carb heavy pasta which was amazing! Ending the diet break right lol. I also did a 30 minute elliptical workout and a total body strength training workout.)

05/03 - 139.9 (+.7) great way to start 😂 I think I’m retaining water because TOM is coming. Will see how it plays out. If TOM is close I should have a good drop during round. 🤞🏻
05/04 - 140.2 (+.3) no idea what’s going on. I’m not eating over my calories. I’m exercising a ton. Drinking a ton of water. Should be going the other way but it is what it is. I’m guessing it’s bloat and water retention since there’s not much else I can attribute it to. Going to keep at it and hope for the best in the coming days.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
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.

05/03/19 - 256.6 - Started the day with some avocado toast.
05/04/19 - 253.8 - Welp. This is normal for me. My body stays the same weight for 2-3 weeks and then suddenly it starts dropping like crazy within a few days. So this is just that drop happening. That isn't to say I'm not grateful - definitely loving this number!!
I started the day with jelly toast this time XD.10
