@MarisaMSimon - " ... I read online to run slow! I’ve been running too fast that I can’t seem to run long enough ..."
You can try a run/walk variation to slowly build up to a longer distance. I've always needed to run/walk since anything over a mile is challenging for me. Before my surgery this year - being older and over weight I was able to run/walk 1 mile in 8:20. I've never been able to teach myself to run slower to go further. I'm an old ex-sprinter and my mind and body prefer short, quick paces. So try a run/walk variation and see if you can keep your speed and increase your distance. Happy Running!!
@1Di5 Thank you!! And yeah I used to run a fast mile, but I cannot do it anymore. I can't even do a 15 minute mile with running/walking and I'm SO out of breath. I want to be able to run further and then pick up the pace once my body gets used to running longer distances. My 5K plan has me upping my running to 12 minutes and I've tried the intervals for too long already without success I wanted to switch things up. I'll see how it goes with all the research I have done so far! Supposedly, you're supposed to be able to have a conversation with someone...I can't even drink water with how out of breath I am

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 192.0 (Back to this number that my body loves, but at least I'm 0.8 pounds down from yesterday. TOM should be here in 1 day according to my app. I had Trader Joe's mandarin chicken last night with rice and did my 5K training where I had to run 9 of 30 minutes. Oh my was it hot yesterday! 105 degrees and I did intervals instead of straight through since the air was so thin. I'm glad I accomplished it though!)
06/13 - 191.4 (A slight decrease but way higher than last week's weight. TOM is here any day now! I had breakfast for dinner and did my first spin class in years! My lower body is hurting today!)
06/14 - 190.8 (I gained 1.8 pounds this week but I just got TOM yesterday one day early. That explains all the water weight! I did a 5K training session even though I didn’t want to at all!)
06/15 - 190.6 (Forgot to post yesterday but weight is starting to go down because of TOM! I had chipotle and didn’t do a workout!)
06/16 - 191.0 (Went in a date night last night and ate half of my dinner. I didn’t get a dessert this time! I did a 5K session and I’ve been having trouble running. I read online to run slow! I’ve been running too fast that I can’t seem to run long enough. Can’t wait to try this Tuesday!)
06/17 - 191.6 (This is a good weigh-in! I'm 0.6 pounds less than last Monday, so I'm hoping for a loss. I did a Zumba class yesterday, finally! I've been wanting to since I got my gym membership, but the workout room at LA Fitness by my house has been under renovation. I had to travel to another gym in town to get my Zumba fix. I had Father's Day dinner last night, which was steak, baked potato and asparagus. I also made a strawberry shortcake for my FIL at his request and had a small slice of that.)

===============================
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 145.5 - Been hitting 144 and 143 the last rd (143 2x and that's my new low)
06/13 145.2 - rough rough day - managed to stay under cal goal, but that's about the only positive.
06/14 145.4 - Walked at work for lunch a couple of miles and rode 2 horses when I got home. Did a decent job nutritionally. Need to get back on track with pushups & plants. Been working to stay under 1200 cal day and bumped it up to 1500 - I don't think losing 2 lbs a week is feasible when you're down to about the last 10. I think my metabolism needs a boost to get moving so I'm going to try 1500-1600 cal daily until July.
06/15 146.4 - Walked 8.5 miles, on my feet most of the day. Did decent foodwise.
06/16 146 - Lots of walking all morning, and then I freakin stress ate all afternoon. Queso & chips, cheeseburger, dip, Big order of McDonald's fries, beer - you name it, I ate lots of it.
06/17 148 - YIKES!! Drinking water & green tea - miserably bloated

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 139.8 I think I'll bounce back and forth for a bit between 139 and 140 away at the beginning of this round until I drop. The neat thing about doing these rounds is learning your body's patterns.
06/13 140.8 Ha, there it is! Hopefully, back down tomorrow.
06/14 137.6 Liking this! If I don't succumb to the Father's Day treats planned for this weekend (cinnamon rolls and other random junk my husband has requested), maybe I can make it stick.
06/15 137.6 So far, so good! I'm not expecting to drop any more pounds this round, but I'd be thrilled if I end in the 130s!
06/16 134.4 I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'm losing too quickly?! Over 5 lbs in 4 days.
06/17 135.8 Good, I feel like this is evening out. I want to drop real fat, not water, and I know it's impossible to lose pure fat so quickly. That said, I feel way smaller. I really need to take measurements at the end of this round. (CARB CYCLE 1)

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 203 - Woohoo for going down 2lbs!! Not sure what caused it and it could be water weight. I had my leftover Hawaiian chicken bowl for lunch yesterday, mainly chicken and veggies, and one egg roll. For dinner I had Wingstop, but only like 4-5 dry wings (not including a couple boneless
) Slowly trying to drink more water again. Having a salad for lunch today and have a couple healthy snacks so I don't feel too hungry. Hope to continue keeping my number down!
06/13 - 202.8 - Made a typo yesterday, was supposed to be 203 not 202. Happy my number is still slowly going down though! Had a salad for lunch yesterday, but ended up having a burger and chili fries for dinner. I always do really good for lunch and get wild with dinner. Also been in a funk for the past few days. My friend who moved without telling me has been cold towards me and really bitter about the fact that I was out of town these past couple weekends. I've been in pain both weekends, going to be blowing all my money on my teeth and a speeding ticket I got a couple months ago, things are far from vacation mode for me and being given the cold shoulder like this is just adding to my anxiety, stress and making me feel really depressed and alone. I'm glad I can at least vent to strangers on the internet
Hope everyone is having an awesome day and kicking this challenges *kitten*!
06/14 - 202.6 - Mango Cilantro salad for lunch and snacked in the morning on crackers and pork jerky. Had a sushi bowl for dinner instead of a teriyaki bowl and got half rice and half veggies instead of full rice. Should have done full veggies, but was craving the rice. Family flew in from Canada last night and they were up late. We made them sandwiches and I had a little bread with cucumber and meat, but that's it. This morning I had a Starbucks bagel (way too many carbs) but needed to have something to keep me full and I didn't have time to pack a snack. Won't be weighing in tomorrow or Sunday morning because I will be at my boyfriends with his lieing scale, so hope this weekend will be good to me
06/15 - X - No weigh in, wasn't home.
06/16 - 202.5 - Weighed in when I got home in the mid-morning. Was surprised I went down a tiny bit after Disneyland. I walked a decent amount, but also snacked on a lot of stuff. I still portioned dinner and stuck with either water or diet coke.
06/17 - 203.1 - I was prepared for it to go up after Father's Day. I had half of a mini apple with peanut butter and half of my iced coffee and just water. We went to Morongo's buffet for Father's Day and the line was insane. I munch on some things, nothing too heavy and we did some walking. I got hungry at night and just stood ate some sandwich meat in the kitchen. I'm feeling pretty good about my weigh-in for tomorrow though

I’m 51 years old, female, 5’7 and started getting serious on MFP recently. I’m in the midst of a couch to 5K program and really enjoying it.
MFP starting weight: 186 (May 2019)
Round 79: - .6 pounds
Round 80 starting weight: 181.8
Goal weight, eventually: 150
Goal this round: increase endurance while running. I’d love to be in the 170s by the end of this round.
6/12…183. Had an impromptu gathering with friends at the house last night, which upended my careful tracking somewhat, but I weighed in this morning nonetheless. No gym today as I’ve run/walked several days in a row and figure I need a rest day.
6/13…181.0 I finished day 2, week 7 of my couch to 5K program and am feeling good; that’s a total of 20 minutes of running. Today I was able to run/walk the three miles in 40 minutes, which had been a small goal of mine. I’ve got the 170s in sight.
6/14…179.6 Ha! This is after 50 minutes on the treadmill first thing in the morning. I did yesterday’s couch to 5 K workout over again, as it was fairly hard. I broke yesterday’s personal best record by about 40 seconds, so a new personal best of three miles in 40.04. I’ll take a rest day tomorrow, or just walk with no running. I’ve also been close or just slightly over on my calories every day lately and I’ve kept up with my water intake. Whoop!
6/15…Did not weigh. Two words: piz-za. Yes, I know it’s really one word. I ate two words' worth. I’m sure I’m chock full of sodium.
6/16…Did not weigh. Woke up feeling an utter lack of energy, possibly because it’s so hot outside. Dragged myself to the gym in the evening, forced myself to do my day 3, week seven run/walk and, lo and behold, I crushed it.
6/17…179.8 This is not too bad after the drinking and eating out hijinks of the weekend. Ran/walked week 8, day 1 of the couch to 5K program. Ran first thing in the morning and did fine.

OSW: 178 in July of 2018
Rnd 79 EW: 148.7
Goals for next 10 days:
1) to get between 7,500 and 10,000 steps everyday (extremely hard to do sitting at a desk for 8-9 hours a day)
2) do not want to see anything higher than 148.9 on the scale in this round
3) finally see a new low of 145.xxx (lowest weight so far was 3 weeks ago and it was 146.5)
06/12 - 147.7 down another pound from yesterday, but still a little high. TOM is still killing me and I am still bloated. Better than yesterday, but I still feel terrible. My motivation is just not where it needs to be to start this round, but I am trying to push through it and keep going. Hopefully by tomorrow I should be back to normal weight and done with the bloating, cramping, aching feeling. If I can just resist for another day or 2 not to eat fried stuff I will be doing good. That's all I have been craving the last 3 days is anything fried, lol. On track today so far with water/food and I have already done just over 3,000 steps. So hopefully I can get some more in this afternoon.
06/13 - 146.7 still working my way back down. Hopefully tomorrow I will see a new low and drop all the weight I have been holding onto for the last couple of weeks. I have looked back in my notes and noticed that I have 2 really good months of losing after my TOM hits and then I stall or lose very slowly anywhere from 4-8 weeks until it comes again. Because of the birth control that I am on I only have a period once every 3-4 months. It gets frustrating during that last part, but I am not willing to change my birth control or get off of it, so I will just have to live with it. When I had more to lose it wasn't so obvious or drastic. I already have 5 children ages 20 years old to 10 years old. So I will stay on my birth control and deal with the consequences. May take me a year to lose the last 10 pounds before I see 138, but I won't have a baby to deal with, lol!
06/14 - 146.1 Went out to dinner last night and took half of my plate home and did not touch the sopapillas. I never do that normally, so win, win! I did have 2 margaritas, but had a ton of water in between and after. It was a nice impromptu date night with the hubby! Hoping to see a 145.xxx on that scale tomorrow morning. My next milestone on my happy scale is 146.0, so close but not quite there yet, and my personal mini-goal is 145.5. Maybe I can hit both tomorrow! Happy with today though!
06/15 - 146.7 had a slight bump up, but had a piece of pizza and ate the top of another piece. Then I filled up on salad, so not a terrible night, but I could have been better. Going to a comedy show with the hubby tonight, so going to try and keep it to a minimum with my alcohol intake and keep my calories down during the day to save up for dinner tonight.
06/16 - 147.7 up a bit, but I’m ok with that. Had a couple of drinks and dinner out last night before the comedy show. We had a blast and it was a great start to my hubbys fathers day weekend!
06/17 - 148.6 Didn't do great this weekend, but was not terrible either. We ate sandwiched Saturday and Sunday and pizza Friday night, so my carbs were definitely higher than normal. Had a nice bbq yesterday though and just relaxed and watched movies most of the afternoon. Back at work today and ready to start another week. 4 days left and hoping to finally hit 145.xxx this week!

06/17: 143.0 First weigh in after 6 days of vacation. Really pleased to see weight drop from the end of round 79, even though we were eating out everyday for all meals and exercise limited to walking on beach and in town! Felt comfortable wearing a bathing suit for the first time in a couple of years. Tried to make healthy meal choices (lots of salads and fresh seafood), but did enjoy the fresh linguine with shrimp scampi with a bread stick as a cheat day the other night! Also I had entered in a MFP 5-week prediction for Monday, which predicted 146, and I am 3 pounds below that goal! (not sure how they make the prediction, but more conservative than Pacer's predictions, so will enjoy the mini-success!). Back to the gym this morning to expend the saved up energy form last week - step aerobics and weight machines for legs; stayed on for the spin class so lots of cardio today!

OSW 199 (June 15 2018)
Female, 5' 4 1/2 " age 53
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!!

MINI GOALS
1/31 149 -- (149 first time on 1/30...but bouncing Goal Met 2/3! )
2/28 145 -- Healthy BMI...I believe. But some of the calculators say 140 or 143 Goal Met 3/4! )
3/15 141.5 (0.5 lbs below my weight watchers lifetime member weight, pretty much haven't weighed this, since I achieved lifetime status 11 years ago!)
3/31 141 Goal Met 4/1!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 135 -- Continuing the bouncing. Today in a good way! Diagnosed with shingles yesterday. Luckily they are receding, and not affecting my energy levels. But still irritating!
06/13 134.5 -- New low! I've been really good with water, exercise, and keeping the carbs good!
06/14 134.5 Wow! That number stuck around for another day! 5 mile walk yesterday and hour of zumba. Ate well!
06/15 135.5 Pretty happy with this. We went out for Chinese food last night. I skipped the rice, but not surprised that the sodium or whatever would make it bump up.
06/16 134.5 Yes. Yesterday's bump up is gone! Did zumba, and gardening yesterday. Ate well!
06/17 136.5 Ate over yesterday, but only by about 500 calories, X so not going to freak out. No gym, short walk. About 9000 steps.

Day - Weight - Comment
06/12 - 135.8 (-1.8lbs) - starting to get back down to normal. I think I was dealing with bloat from dietary changes but I have changed it back and will slowly add more fiber if needed. As for workouts I’m feeling sore. Yesterday and the day before were both really good strength workouts so I’m feeling it now. Got in 15 glasses of water. Did 35min cardio at about 75% effort. Feeling good. Hopefully I can break through 135 this round. 💪🏻 Just goes to show how the scale can be so misleading. Staying the course sometimes is all that is needed.
06/13 - 137.6 (+1.8lbs) - expected a jump I ate a lot of salt last night and ate late. On top of that I’m sore and a bit bloated. Good workouts yesterday, 1hr strength and 35 cardio at 74% intensity. 17 glasses of water.
06/14 - 136.9 (-0.7lbs) - DOMS! Super sore today! Might even take a rest day 😓 maybe not will see. 14 glasses of water. 1hr strength and 40m cardio at 76% effort.
06/15 - 135.9 (-1lb) - still a bit bloated but less sore. 30min strength, 30min cardio. 15 glasses water.
06/16 - 136.8 (+0.9lbs) - still bloated but not sore. Did 1hr strength no cardio. 14 glasses water.
06/17 - 136.2 (-0.6lbs) - still bloated, ate late, not sore. 45min yoga. 50min cardio. 16 glasses water.

Wed 12/06: 162.6: Goals: ✅Well that's a surprise, although I checked my ankles and knee, and they do seem a lot less swollen. Hope this sticks around!
Thu 13/06: 163.5: Goals: ✅Normal fluctuation for me. I often bounce back up after a whoosh down. Although I still think these fluctuations are due to the inflammation in my knee
Fri 14/06: 163.2: Goals: ✅Well, it's in the right direction, so no sweat!
Sat 15/06: 163.0: Goals: ✅ Still in the right direction.

Tue 11/06: 164.1: Goals: ✅Caught sight of my legs in my full-length mirror, and realised that my left knee and lower leg is swollen. I think it's coming from the inflammation in my knee.

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.

Goals:
Weight-141.1, hoping to get to 139 by the end of June so 1 lb in the next 6 days.
