JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 79
Replies

I’m new to this challenge and jumping in a little late. I’m 51 years old, female, 5’7 and started getting serious on MFP about 10 days ago. I’m in the midst of a couch to 5K program and really enjoying it.
Starting weight: 186 (as of about 10 days ago)
Goal weight, eventually: 150
NSV goal: Goal this round: increase endurance while running and to stay on top of logging
6/4…182.4. Felt pretty good about this, though I felt like I was cheating the scale by weighing myself after I ran first thing this morning, so little water intake and before breakfast. It still counts, I think!
6/5…181.5. I’ll take that! I like this result in particular because I met a friend out for lunch on 6/4 and I thought the sodium might have an impact. I really slogged through a 45-minute walk/run today. I felt so sluggish and low energy, but we’re going out tonight, so I need to.
6/6…182.0 I confess: I had beers aplenty last night plus a late-night slice of chocolate cake. We had a blast. No regrets at all.
6/7…182.4 Migraine last night and no exercise yesterday, so I’m not surprised. Did my 45 minutes of running/walking today and burned off some calories. Legs feeling strong.
6/8…182 Got up and ran first thing. This is my weight after running; I probably weighed more before I ran, but I’m sticking with this one. My 15th day of logging in, which is my longest stretch. (I know others of you are so diligent and have done this for hundreds or thousands of days. I’m getting there!) Saturday is traditionally a pizza day in our household, so I know I’ll have that to navigate.
6/9…Did not weigh. Migraine!
6/10…183.0 Not surprised because I haven’t been very active. Back on track today, though and did an hour of running/walking in the gym. Feeling better, too.
6/11…181.8 Happy about that! The sun is out and I did my 45 minutes of cardio this morning. Here’s to staying on track!
Total loss this round - .6 pounds. I'm real happy with that, even though it's small, because I dealt with two migraines this week and going out to eat a couple nights. I also kept to my NSV goals by run/walking regularly and pushing myself to go a little faster, a little longer. I also kept up my logging. Onward!11 -

Goals

4-Jun... 188.2...-2.6
Having some serious back pain. But still getting in some exercise! Walking off 150 cals. Thank God for the Smoothie Cleanse
5-Jun... 185.8...-2.4
Saw the doc.. have to ride it out. Smoothie Cleanse is working with a 5 lb loss in 2 days. Doc said last time I weighed showed I am down 28 lbs... can't believe that.
6-Jun... 183.8... -2
Smoothie Cleanse to the rescue. Down another 2 lbs for a total loss on the cleanse in 3 days to 7 lbs and down 5.4 for this JGM10 challenge. The weekend is coming and hubby is cooking A LOT of food for church and have a date with some friends on Friday. Will drink my smoothie while there, stick to fruits and veggies for munchies and bring ONE bottle of prosecco. It's my go-to at 90 cals a glass so if I go overboard, it won't completely derail my success. NO MEAT, NO WINE and NO BEER... just my smoothie and the snacks allowed!
7-Jun... 183.4... -0.4
Long hours yesterday. Didn't get home until 8 PM then dishes, floors, and crawl into bed after smoothie. Idiot me drank some detox tea at almost 9 PM and couldn't fall asleep. Gotta be good tonight. Don't want to give ANY weight back.
8-Jun...182... -1.4
Did ok last night. Kept to the veggies, but drank a little more than I should. Really happy with almost 9 lb loss in 6 days on the cleanse. Dealing with a lot of pain in my back so still not running and no walk today. Bummed about that, but have to get it healed. Stretched once, will do it again.
9-Jun... 181.6... -0.4
Tried going to bed early and in too much pain. Tossed, turned, moved to couch, then recliners, then back to bed, finally asked hubby for a pain pill at 1 AM. This is just bizarre because I haven't done anything to it so just don't know what's going on. Had 4 cocktails to quiet it while watching a couple movies with hubby. Going to just stick to pain pills today to keep it at bay.
10-Jun... 181.8.. +0.2
Got sick yesterday from the pain medication and everything I had taken in since I took it that morning left me rather quickly, but I sure did feel better when that was done. Won't be taking that stuff again. So instead of smoothie cleanse I had to eat a little something at the dinner I was at. Had mostly salad, but since I made the garlic mashed potatoes I had to have a half a spoonful and the tritip was made by my hubby so had to have one small piece of that. The 4 beers were a problem, but I will take it back +some the next 3 days. I WILL be under 180 in 3 days.
OH AND THE WHOLE WORLD ASKED ME HOW MUCH WEIGHT I HAVE LOST LAST NIGHT so I'm doing something right.
11-Jun... 180.6... -1.2
Total loss this round 8.6 lbs.. loss so far on 10 day smoothie cleanse 10.2.. going for at least one more in the next 2 days to take me under 180. 2 would be nicer to have that little cushion. Already planning blackened salmon in the air fryer with roasted veggies with the daughter Thursday when we can actually have a dinner rather than drink our dinner together. Back is better so great time to start slowly back up on the running routine.. gentle... being VERY careful.
IM FEELING AWESOME! Went to the 'other' side of the closet to get dressed for work today! This is 30 lbs down looks like for me!

@rockymouse we are the same person! Although I am just getting to your weight and am running 3 miles now.. although that was almost 2 weeks ago when I screwed up my back! But getting ready to jump back in... slowly! And my biggest weakness is those "beers aplenty!"5

<<<Round 79 goal weight: 377 >>>
My journey … ("I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!")In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbsMy highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.:flowerforyou: SW 373.4 - 1/3/19 GW 299 - 12/31/19 :flowerforyou:Round 64 - SW 373.4 EW 369 (-4.4)

06/02 ??
06/03 ?? Was out of town from 5/31-6/2 and not sure what my weight was during this time so leaving blank.
06/04 205.4 - Really really discouraged after seeing these numbers. Not even a month ago I was 200 and since then I've just been slowly gaining. This past weekend get away was much needed, but I kind of let myself go with snacks. I had a healthy lunch yesterday, but got hungry and ate a late dinner which was a light meal, but still shouldn't have eaten so late. Today's lunch was a salad and keeping it healthy and light. Going to try and make a nice healthy dinner and get some steps in. I'm motivated, but sometimes feel like I'm not allowed to be healthy. From waking at 5:30am just to make it to work on time and working 7:30-4/4:30pm, and spending the morning driving to work and exhausted by the time I get home around 5pm along with literally every weekend being booked with SOMETHING it's draining and difficult to find time to take care of myself. I was trying to do the gym at least after work, but I don't even have time for that anymore and running on such little sleep is killing me. I need help.
06/05 204 - So so happy this number went down! I was starting to feel really defeated. I had Wingstop for dinner last night, but only had 5 wings. I messed up by having a couple boneless wings, those are heavier. I had a healthy lunch planned for today and although I won't have time for the gym this week, I'll be running around trying to get last minute errands done so I'll get my steps in that way. I appreciate everyone's hugs, they mean a lot to me and definitely cheered me up from this weekends big gain.
06/06 202.8 - This number just made me so happy! I ate healthy yesterday and took my dog for a walk so got my steps in. I did have bad tooth pain and woke up this morning with my mouth swollen from my wisdom tooth and an infected tooth. Stressing over all that, but excited I'll have the weekend off in Vegas to get away.
06/07 201.9
06/08 X
06/09 X
06/10 205.8 - I knew my Vegas trip would ruin everything. I had even gotten as low as 201.9 on the day we left. I walked A LOT this weekend and was very active with swimming. I've noticed usually when I walk a lot I tend to gain a lot somehow. I didn't eat anything too crazy this weekend and only had two beers and a couple baileys on ice, which was super small. 70% of the food I ate I cut out the carbs and kept my beverages to either diet sodas, iced tea or water and a few sips of coffee. I'm not too upset because I knew this would happen, but didn't expect the number to go up that high. Hopefully it will go down at least a little by tomorrow. I have a dental consultation today that I'm super nervous about.
06/11205.5 - I'll take it! Glad I'm starting to slowly go back down after this weekend of shenanigans. Dental consultation went great, I'll be getting a root canal in a couple weeks. I'm glad a new round begins tomorrow, but I know this weekend will set me back again because I have family visiting from Canada Thursday, Galaxy Edge at Disneyland Saturday, Father's Day Sunday. I'll be doing a ton of walking at Disneyland for sure, but as we know lots of walking for me, especially at Disneyland = random high weight gain. Excited for the next round!10 -

ROUND 79 (Round 21 for me)
5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle mass
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-70 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last two rounds below my maintenance range. I’ve grown accustomed to the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135, which is almost daily. I’m in my third week of a strength training program. I already feel stronger. The loose skin may be irreversible, and, if so, I’ll try to be content with being strong and feeling good.
Day/Weight/Comment
06/2 133.6 Happy Sunday! The first day of the week and the first day of this round! This is the day the Lord hath made! I’m rejoicing and being glad in it! I hope each of you have a wonderful day. I still have my Burn Circuit 3 workout to complete, so off I go.
06/3 134 Thor and I started with a walk today, and jogged about a mile of it. I had a little twinge of knee pain later, but it was gone by the time I did my cardio and stretching workout this afternoon. It’s supposed to rain Wednesday, so I plan to walk with Thor again tomorrow. I’m still only jogging uphill. I want to be sure my knees are strong before jogging downhill. I’ve gained definition in my calves now, but they’ve always been heavy and strong.
06/4 133.4
06/5 132.8 Yesterday was a busy day, but with no intentional exercise. My arms got a workout guiding our early 1970-era Mahindra tractor through the pasture as I shredded/mowed. My husband said it has power steering, but it’s still a beast. I’m grateful for a handy husband to keep it running!
06/6 133.4
06/7 133.6 Yesterday was busy, so I had to catch up on your posts today. I mowed more of the pasture and did my strength training. I’ve increased my weights and pushups are getting easier. I hope I can see, and not just feel, my improvement in the next couple of months. Either way, it’s worth the effort.
06/8 133.4
06/9 133.8
06/10 134.8
06/11 135 I’m back just in time to end the round! I ended heavier, but still at the bottom of my maintenance goal, so all is well. I even ate pizza last night, but I know not to make a habit of that! NSV: Yesterday was the first time I’ve done the cardio/burn interval of my strength training program without pressing “pause” to catch my breath. Thor and I walked/jogged four miles this morning, and I continue to increase the jogging portion. I will continue to resist running downhill until I’m sure my knees are strong. For now, the uphill stretches give me a good workout.

I’m ready for June and to get going on another round. I have absolutely no plans of traveling or taking time off of work in this round, so hoping to make some progress and see a new low! Would love to finally see that ever allusive 145.xxx!
06/2 - 148.7 same as yesterday which means I did well on a Saturday. Need to make some progress this month so I am really going to try and be good.
06/3 - 148.7 yeah!! Stayed the same through the weekend. On track today so far and hoping to see 147 something tomorrow. My daughter turns 17 today officially so we are doing enchiladas and cheesecake for dinner. Saving all my calories today for tonight and may only have a bite of the dessert. I am also doing my enchiladas without tortillas so that should save me on some of the carbs.
06/4 - 148.7 Still (4th day in a row), WTH! Stuck to my plan for dinner. I did my enchiladas over a bed of lettuce while everybody else had normal ones and I only had 3 bites of cheesecake without chocolate or caramel sauce versus an entire piece. Did well with water and no alcohol.
06/5 - 147.7 Finally some movement on the scale and luckily it's in the right direction! Staying on track and hoping for the best this month. I am 1.2 pounds away from my lowest weight last month (146.5), so waiting to see if I can make it back there this round. I ate a banana this morning for breakfast because I was running late and almost fell over when I entered it and found out how many carbs and calories there are in them. Guess I won't be grabbing that on the go anymore, should have taken the green apple. Oh well, lesson learned.
06/6 - 147.7 Well I can say this has probably been the most consistent round I have ever had. My hubby picked me up from work for a surprise lunch today and I am happy to say I did not blow the entire day. I had a burger wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun and a side salad instead of fries at Red Robin. It was not as good as the alternative, but I am really trying to break through this plateau I have been on. I have been super good, so I did what I needed to do. Hopefully I can see a pretty good drop soon. I have started tracking my steps as of yesterday too, so I am working up to 10,000 steps a day.
06/7 - 147.1 My scale couldn't really decide what it wanted to settle on. So I picked the middle number. It went from 147.7 all the way down to 146.8 and then 147.1. After my husband surprised me with lunch yesterday, he then decided he wanted sushi for dinner (my favorite but a killer on my sodium level). For some reason he really thinks he likes it, but decides every time he doesn't, so it's a rare occasion we ever eat it. He is so funny some times, he was in a weird mood all day yesterday. On track today with food/water and working on my step count. I didn't realize how hard it would be to get 10,000 steps a day as an accountant, but I'm trying. Today during a 15 minute conference call, I did laps in my office around my desk and chair. I ended up making a little obstacle course yesterday with different things in my office to get some extra steps. Yesterday I ended with just over 7,000, so my goal is to get at least 7, 500 - 8,000 today. I have to find creative ways to move and walk when I work at a computer for 8-9 hours a day.
06/8 - 147.1 did good yesterday. Only did about 6700 steps, so I will have to do better. Had issues all day at work, so getting up and doing laps was really hard. Getting ready for my sons graduation party today. So lots of shopping and cooking are on my to do list. We are expecting about 50-60 people so should be a good day. Cooking is my downfall, because I taste test everything about 20 times. So I’m going to try and be really good today and control my snacking/taste testing while I cook.
06/9 - 149.7 up a lot today, but was expected! Did well on food, but drank way more beer than I should have and had 0 glasses of water after about 5 last night. We also went to bed very late and was up bright and early this am to clean up. We had a blast though and have completed the only other big event we had to do this month. Last weekend we celebrated my daughters 17th birthday and this weekend we had my sons graduation party. Two weekends in a row it’s been crazy. I’m ready for a peaceful weekend, lol. 2 days left and would love a really good whoosh! We will see!
06/10 - 149.7 My TOM showed up today, uuugghhh. I don't think my high was from alcohol yesterday, but this instead, or maybe a combination. I usually gain a couple of pounds and hold on to it for the first 4 days. So I am hoping to at least finish under my start, but more than likely will finish high. My calories were under yesterday and I drank all my water. At least I am still out of the 150's! On track today and making it a low cal day. Maybe next round I will see a new low, lol.
06/11 - 148.7 came down a bit from the last couple of days, but not much. I am ending this round the same as I started. I have never done that before. I didn't see a new low or get to 145. I know I am still higher than I should be, so I am looking forward and hoping to see a nice whoosh in the next round. On to the next!

My third consecutive round: progress so far RND'S 77-78 net - 1.9 lbs lost
Start this round - 273.5
Goal this round - 270.0
Day/Weight/Comment I keep hoping this is the round it really busts lose; I know its coming.
06/02 - 273.5 I have really been stuck for awhile and need to get this thing moving. The weekends are always a step back for me.
06/03 273.4 Looking forward to a good week and making some progress. So looking forward to saying adios to the 70's forever.
06/04 272.2 down a bit , was a slim day of eating yesterday.
06/05 272.8 some positive takeaways, im not having huge wt fluctuations day to day. Im trying to work through bad leg pain and hoping to get more active if it improves.
06/06 271.6 man i usually get 8k steps a day pretty easy even with my bum knees, but ive had alot of right leg pain so I have given it a three day break. im at 6400 with a couple of hours left so hopefully its improving the pain has been less today. Don't take your health for granted if you can get out there and go do it, someday your body may not cooperate. I may not be done with the 70's quite yet but we are getting close. 👍

I'm doing what I can, which is precious little. But it's increasing day by day, so happy with that. Had a great visit to GoTs exhibition in Belfast with DYD and DH yesterday
Mon 27/05: 164.4: Goals ✅ Planned to plant up containers for my terrace today, but rain stopped play. It's early days yet. I will get them done when the rain passes through.
Tue 28/05: 163.6: Goals ✅ Wasn't really expecting that, but will take it. Spent time planting up and moving heavy pots around the garden, and cutting hedges.
Wed 29/05: 163.0: Goals ✅ Delighted that it’s still going in the right direction.
Thu 30/05: 163.1: Goals ✅Just a wee bounce.
Fri 31/05: 163.4: Goals: I have no formal plans for today, but I'm sure that will change once I get going. 😂 ✅ I had a relatively easy day. Physio, gentle walking, some paperwork cleared up.
Sat 01/06: 162.4: Goals: Keep on doing what I'm doing. It seems to be working! 😂

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.

Day - Weight - Comment
06/02 - 136.1 (-0.7) - still expect fluctuations. I am feeling bloated and retaining water. TOM weight should shed in a few days or so. Food was healthy and within cals, exercise cardio (lots of it) and strength training, 16 glasses of water. Staying on track regardless of the scale. My body shows a lot of changes even though the scale doesn’t reflect them.
06/03 - 136.3 (+0.2) - Drop any day now🤞🏻
06/04 - 136.1 (-0.2) - nice little drop but hopefully I see a bigger drop soon.
06/05 - 135.4 (-0.7) - lots of cardio the last few days and TOM is over so finally a good drop! Hopefully it sticks and I can continue the trend for the rest of the round.
06/06 - 136.6 (+1.2) - very sore today and ate later than normal. DOMS. Slow and steady is the name of the game these days. Still have a decent loss per week which I work out to about .8lbs. Being so close to goal it has been a bit of an adjustment learning to deal with smaller losses but it’s still moving in the right direction.
06/07 - 137.5 (+0.9) - extremely bloated. Not sure why but definitely a contributing factor.
06/08 - 137.3 (-0.2) - water weight still. I’m feeling the pump from strength training and some DOMS. Should come down shortly.
06/09 - 138.9 (+1.6) - no clue what’s going on. I’m eating healthy. I’m working out. I’m drinking my water. Just going to ride this out hopefully it comes down soon. Never had it creep up so much even with DOMS and water retention.
06/10 - 138.6 (-0.3) - still don’t know what’s going on with the scale but I did take measurements and I’m down in inches everywhere so I’m not too concerned. I am just going to focus on measuring weekly along with weighing to prevent any unwarranted discouragement.
06/11 - 137.6 (-1) - nice to see a drop again. Water retention. I’m sore today as well from working out. I’m sure I’ll get back to 135 shortly but for now just going to let my body do it’s thing while I workout and get stronger. 💪🏻5 -
Height: 5ft 10in
Highest weight ever: 213 lbs
End game goal weight: 170 lbs
Starting weight for round 79: 210.6
Goal weight for end of round 79: 207
06/05 – 210.6 lbs. Weighed myself in the morning before eating or drinking anything. Ate Chana Masala and half a cup of rice for breakfast. Had coffee for lunch – I know, not a good lunch. Drank a lot of water starting after lunch. Cleaned the house a little, and had turkey chili for dinner with a garden salad and biscuit. Went over my sodium limit for the day, which is not ideal. Stayed under my calorie, carbs, fat, and sugar limits for the day. I usually do cardio every day, like power-walking, elliptical, or spin bike. However, today I was tired and didn’t work out.
06/06 - 210.5 lbs. I didn't expect my weight to change much. Drank a lot of water throughout the day. And again, I was lazy and didn't work out. Just cleaned around the house. On 06/03, before I joined this challenge, I ran for over an hour on my elliptical. I feel like it set me up for feeling extremely tired this week. (I have reactivated mono and it attacked my immune system, liver, and has taken a lot of my energy. I should know better not to over-stress my body by running for that long.) When I hit that runners' high, it's hard to stop.
06/07 - 210.0 lbs. Yeah! Losing! Woke up early this morning, fed the cats, and fed myself. An egg on toast with a sausage patty. Drank some Earl Grey tea and coffee. I made myself a green smoothie for lunch, had a chicken asian salad for dinner, and a slice of apple pie
06/08 - 209.8 lbs. Had a strange day today. Was extremely sleepy all day and took an 8 hour nap. Now it's 11pm and I'm tired again! I had breakfast for dinner and then had myself an at-home spa night lol. I was under my calorie goal for the day. Now I'm off to read and go to sleep. Stupid mono.
06/09 - Didn't get a chance to weigh myself, but I ate healthy today. I got to spend time outdoors with family and soaked up a lot of vitamin D I wasn't as sleepy or tired, which felt amazing!
06/10 - Again, didn't get a chance to weigh myself today. By the time I thought about it, I had already eaten breakfast and drank a lot of tea and water. I ate very healthy and drank tons of water today. Had a lovely homemade dinner with my parents. Hopefully tomorrow I get the chance to weigh myself!
06/11- 211.2 lbs. Well, that was unexpected. I've been eating healthy meals, so I'm not sure what's up with that. I did eat peanut butter, which is really not that great. It's filled with high calories and a lot of fat. Maybe it's something I should cut from my diet. Ended up with a migraine today. All I ate was breakfast. Hopefully the start of round 80 tomorrow will be more successful.6 -

This round my goal is to reach 205!
6/2 – DNW - Sundays are my active rest days! Went for a walk to the coffee shop in the morning and walked home from there. Ended the day with 14,809 steps!
6/3 – DNW - SAC test at my gym, finished the challenge in 19 minutes, 4 minutes longer than allowed but proud of myself for finishing! Next test is start of July, hoping to beat my current time! 15,222 steps
6/4 – DNW - Push, Pull day at the gym. 14,119 steps
6/5 – DNW - 45 minutes of burpees at the gym (DEAD) had tacos and ice cream with my family after. 15,349 steps
6/6 – 209.6 - 1 week back at exercise and tracking diligently every day. Disappointed to see the number move down only slightly. Tomorrow is my official weigh in day. 16,133 steps
6/7 –209.4 - still a little upset that I didn't even lose 1lb my first week. Trying not to let it slow me down, still got up and walked before work this morning and have gym plans tonight! Did partake in National donut day this morning but not going to let that throw off my whole day! 14,142 steps
6/8 –208.6 - moving in the right direction. Working out at 9 and hoping to stay pretty active today. I’d like to get my house cleaned, laundry done and grocery shop! Hoping the rain clears up and I can go on a nice afternoon walk and maybe to a church festival tonight! Anyone else love church festivals in the summer? Dumb games and “gambling” for days!!! 17,011 steps
6/9 –DNW - woke up later than normal after a fun night out with friends. pretty dehydrated and certainly ate and drank too much on Saturday. Went to the USMNT match and continued my eating and drinking from Saturday 10,702 steps
6/10 –210.5 - figured this would happen after a long weekend of eating and drinking. hoping to get my water and steps in today and make sure I make it to workout after work. Sweat out some of the weekend and get that number back down fast! 11,931 steps
6/11 -209.0 - ended the round lower than I started so I'll at least take that as win! Never made it to workout yesterday but did go for a nice walk in the evening! Gym after work and then off to celebrate my little brothers birthday at my parents. Not going to completely deprive myself of the cake and ice cream, but will be eating in moderation! By the time the cake rolled around I didn't even want any! Enjoyed the company and didn't indulge in something I wasn't feeling, I'll call that a win!! 14,840 steps (-0.6 this round)5 -
69 years old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

06/02 no weigh in but had a good day. 1/30 accomplished
06/03 138.8 2/30 accomplished today I entered all my meals for the week, hopefully this will help keep me on track and stop me from mindlessly snacking or looking for easy meals. I am feeling really good about this decision
06/04 136.8 3/30 accomplished had a good day today and nice whoosh this morning when I woke up. Hopefully it keeps going and doesn't plateau *fingers crossed*
06/05 135.8 4/30 accomplished so far so good. Entering all my meals for the week has so far worked out really well. I am sticking to it and I am not frustrated with making decisions on what to eat and has kept my snacking mindlessly at bay. 👍👍
06/06134.8 5/30 accomplished woooooooot!!! Finally kicked that 135 mark.....ok, i know that it is only a .2 but progress is progress and I have been waiting for this to be kicked for so long now. (I think the count is four months) unfortunately for me though shark week is in a day or two...so this might be short lived. I don't mind though, as long as I am here I know I can touch this number again!!! Yay!
06/07 134.8 6/30 accomplished a little dissapointed I stayed the same because yesterday was an amazing day but at the same time happy I saw this two days in a row. I am officially here. Although I ended my day at an underage, I still almost ate all my exercise calories. I have been moving all day and my food choices weren't the best because although I had my food already planned out, I didn't have time to actually eat it before I was out and about. Hopefully I stay the same tomorrow as well because I did eat at maintenance but we will see
06/08 no weigh in. Had to get up super early for a family function. Because of the family function I preplanned that this day would be my cheat meal day and so didn't stick with it. 6/30 accomplished
06/09 141.8 whhhhhhaaaaaattt?!?!! So I am done fasting!! I tried for a month and this is what happened. I had a family function on Saturday and had preplanned that that day to be a pass. What I ate was a whole bunch of veggies, about half a cup of rice and three chicken balls.....that is it. No desert, no pop nothing that was binge worthy...I was actually proud of myself because the day didn't end in a crazy binge session. I have done far worse on these type of days in the past and have never seen a crazy weight gain like this. Not only did I gain everything I took off for the month but plus some. I am so frustrated and slightly depressed...I have had week long eating days like Christmas and gained at most 3 pounds, i have had family function weekends like Easter and have gained a little more than 2...so to have one day lead to a 6 pound gain seems so outlandishly rediculious that I am so angry I wasted my time. Not to mention my period has never been late (minus a random one here and there) and both my periods I have had through this fast has been all out of whack. Fasting is not for me. I am so angry. I have been working harder then ever before and this is what I got to show for it after one day of not sticking the course. The experiment is over, I am going back to what I was doing before. 7/30 accomplished
06/10 8/30 accomplished 140.6 still disappointing, wanted to end this 10 days on a good note but I don't see that happening. I had a hard time eating because my body was used to being in fast mode but hopefully I can get back to normal soon. I did notice an extreme gain the last time I had a cheat meal and decided to just jump back in...but now I know for sure it isn't right for me. I know I am just repeating my last post but it has been so frustrating.

6/02 - I wasn't at home, so no weigh in this morning. 41g carbs, 36g net carbs. Carbs were: salad, crackers, peanut butter.
6/03 - 176.2 - 26g carbs, 25g net carbs. Carbs were: belgian waffle, ingredients in turkey burger.
6/04 - 177.2 - 30g carbs. Carbs were: 10 crackers. I'm becoming really disinterested in eating, which is not good.
6/05 - 6/05 - 176.8 - 17g carbs, 13g net carbs. Carbs were: beef au jus sauce, broccoli, guacamole.
6/06 - 178.2 - 40g carbs, 25g net carbs. Carbs were: 3 large croutons crushed, peanut butter, salad, avocado. Felt tired all day, ate peanut butter at 10pm, seems silly when about to go to bed. Not enough water yesterday. Been dealing poorly with some one else's life stress that has too easily become mine. Stress the past few weeks is now showing up as disinterest in eating and bloated abdomen from cortisol. 😕

OSW 199 (June 15 2018)
Female, 5' 4 1/2 " age 53
Joining a bit late this round, but I know better than to wait to start until the next one!!
Hi. My name is Trina. I started this challenge round 54, was pretty consistent, and then got lost somewhere mid Round 74. The scale slowed down a bit, but now I think I am on the move again. I am now 6-8 pounds till goal weight, and hoping to get there in the next couple of months. Trying to keep focused on losing, while also looking ahead to maintenance. I've been feeling great, and feeling great exercising, and not feeling food restricted, so all of those things are good! Let's all have a wonderful 10 days of making great choices!!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2 DNW Spent the day helping my son pack his dorm room into the car and then a long drive. Ran around campus a bunch before driving, so got plenty of steps
6/3 DNW Not many steps. Drove from Virginia to Alabama. Stuck to low carb breakfast, car snacks and dinner.
6/4 138 So excited to see this number after 10 days travel with no scale and eating with others!
6/5 137.5
6/6 136
6/7 135 Totally doing the happy dance by the way!!! (This could be off, as I went to bed with no supper last night as I felt kind of off!)
6/8 136.5 Still happy. Staying under 137! Pushups this morning, 4 mile (slow) run, and then hour of zumba!
6/9 138 Sadness. Apparently I just started weighing again on a low! I always bounce around, although I prefer not to! Hoping this is just DOMS. I'm pretty sore from Friday's workout. Ate some cake yesterday, but still had extra calories at the end of the day.
6/10 136.5 Yup. I'm bouncing! But a down bounce after the weekend is truly nice!
6/11 137.5 The bounce continues! But, since I started high....it still looks good!
