Day/Weight/Comment
07/01 …..194.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/02 …..193.6 ….. Starting off another pound down, so the loss is sticking so far. I woke up starving yesterday, but after black coffee I had no hunger all day. I am sure I am fat adapted at this point. Yesterday was my son’s 23rd birthday. The party will be in a few weeks more than likely, but my son, brother & I did a mini-celebration late yesterday evening. We had a BBQ with steak, baked potatoes with sour cream, corn & grilled garlic bread & sherbet icecream. I ate the steak and 1 small baked potato with sc. No corn or bread. No icecream. It was pretty easy to stick to my guns since the hunger is at bay. Yesterday’s stats: 1071 Calories In / 2515 Calories Out. 39 Net Carbs. 11,008 Total Steps & 4.66 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Steps Hours. I did 44 minutes of vigorous cabin cleaning. I slept badly only getting 3 hours & 24 minutes of sleep. Good luck on round 82 Everyone! I appreciate you all.

07/03 …..193.6 ….. Holding steady. 3rd day in a row yesterday with low hunger and low calories. Not enough water & very little shedding. I will work on that today. I expect lots of movement today as I have a full house and am booked out for the next few days due to the holiday. The lack of calories (or water) seems to have stopped the loss on the scale. But the loss is sticking so I’m pleased. I will try to increase my calories a bit today with healthy LCHF foods. Last night I had to eat 2 ounces of cheddar cheese just to get out of the 800 range. Yesterday’s stats: 1062 Calories In / 2450 Calories Out. 23 Net Carbs of mainly veggies. 10,185 Total Steps & 4.31 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Steps Hours. I slept 3 hours & 50 minutes and woke up very early but refreshed (so my weigh-in was an early one). I took an 18 minute walk & I vigorously cleaned a cabin for 37 minutes. I am still feeling very strong in my plan today & my hunger, so far this morning, is still at bay.

07/04 …..193.8 ….. A small blip up. No worries, just normal body adjustments. I had a great day yesterday & stayed on plan. I hoped to hit a few extra calories but did not manage it. I added some almonds & walnuts last night as a snack to bring it over 1000 calories. I stayed active with work and felt pretty good all day. I did feel a bit more hunger than the previous days but found myself easily full. Yesterday’s stats: 1086 Calories In / 2929 Calories Out. 22 Net Carbs. 15,178 Total Steps & 6.42 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 12 minutes. I took a 12 minute walk & I spent 204 minutes doing the cabin cleaning which also involves many steps. To all of us in the USA, have a safe & fun holiday & enjoy all your celebrations.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/02 - 190.0 (I still have some weekend weight to lose...hopefully it's a better week than last! I did an awesome Zumba class last night and had a croque madame sandwich for dinner!)

07/03 - 188.6 (Yay so close to my lowest weight! I did a 5K training workout last night and made some chicken fajitas, black beans and Spanish rice. It was delicious! I've been very lucky with the weather lately during my afternoon runs. It's in the mid-80's so far which is very rare this time of year in LA.)

07/04: 187.8 (A very good weigh in this morning. I was so happy to leave work for the long weekend yesterday! It’ll be nice to get some sleep! I went to a Power Circuit class at the gym last night and had a Panda Express bowl of mushroom chicken and rice. Happy 4th to the US folks!)

2) Daily exercise
3) Good hydration

Day/Weight/Comment
07/02 192.8 – 4th day at this weight. Time to focus and start moving down again! Walked for an hour this morning and got some gardening done despite the heat. Good food choices and good hydration today. I feel like I’m off to a good start 😊
07/03 192.2 – Nice to see a drop going into the long weekend. It was already steamy at 6 AM, so did some chores in the house instead of walking and spent the afternoon in the pool with the kids. My older grandson helped make dinner – lemon pepper salmon, one of his favorite dishes. Came in under my calorie limit even with a glass of wine and a scoop of gelato. Need to get in a little more water this evening to compensate for the alcohol.
07/04 190.8 – Happy 4th! Cooked up a big pot of ratatouille this morning and readied the yard for guests. Lots of fruits and veggies on the menu (along with the high-salt and high calorie offerings), so hopefully today’s BBQ won’t set me back too far.

Hi. My name is Trina. I've been back on MFP for a year now, am down 65 pounds and just 4 pounds from my revised goal weight! A year ago, this seemed like a pipe dream. I've been doing this challenge since Round 54 and it has been a blessing in helping to keep me focused and positive through the daily ups and downs of this journey to better health! Thanks to all for the wonderful support!

07/02 133 New low. This is actually the usual pattern. Down a little down a little more, than spike up before coming down...and then to a new low. It works...but it's a crazy ride! Strenghth class and zumba yesterday. Ate clean and healthy.
07/03 132 A new low! Definitely this one goes back 27 years. Not sure I've seen this number since I've been married! Stuck to low carb yesterday. Only a half of a real brownie my son made and then I made myself a pretty dang marginal brownie in a mug...which satisfied my craving to make a brownie in a mug, anyway and was at least filling. (P.S. I'm silently and in slow motion jumping up and down for joy....don't want the scale to hear me and backtrack!)

07/04 133 --Oooh. Definitely happy to still be seeing these numbers! 90 minute zumba party with 350 people this morning at the YMCA

I will be back for another round. It will be 1 year on mfp on 7/7 and I honestly thought I would have been at my ultimate goal weight by now. Unfortunately I am not and I still have about 7-8 pounds to go. I have lost 33 pounds though and am very happy with that. I have revised my goal weight a couple of times, but am firm at 138 (at least for right now,lol) I am doing 14 days with no alcohol to see if this is what is slowing my progress down. I am also recovering from a pretty bad infection and still on antibiotics from a stupid spider bite. So maybe I will have a really big whoosh this round! Maybe, fingers crossed!

Round 79: 148.7 - 148.7 Avg 148.38
Round 80: 148.7 - 148.0 Avg 147.22
Round 81: 148.0 - 146.5 Avg 147.87
Goal for round 82: 144 my lowest so far was 145.9 on 6/30


7/02: 145.9 back down to Sundays weight. Good day yesterday with calories and water. Still no alcohol and still no major changes in weight loss. 6 more days to go. We will see what happens. 2 more pounds and I will be "normal" BMI.
7/03: 145.9 still here. We did eat Sonic last night for dinner, but I did not eat the bun and only half my tater tots, so I stayed within my calories. I had also only eaten about 400 calories during the day because I knew we would probably grab something on the go last night. Still no alcohol and plenty of water, so on track for this week so far.
7/04: 145.9 this has been my weight 4 days out of the last 5. Still no alcohol and at a deficit. Going hiking this am with my hubby and hopefully will see a drop tomorrow.

@nikki062181 Here is to meeting my goal in this 10 days. I was 17lbs from my goal weight and have since gained 17 additional pounds. That puts me 34lbs over. I went from 232 to 142lbs. I cannot let this get away from me. I have worked hard to lose this weight, and I need to be responsible enough to keep it off. I'd like to at least lose those 17 lbs before I have to start teaching again on August 7th.

GOALS FOR THE WEEK!

First step: Continue to track calories
Second step: Continue to measure my portions
Third step: Continue to cut out carbonated beverages
Fourth step: Continue to cut out too many sweets
5th step: Push water!!!!
6th step: Take my B12 supplement daily at lunch because I have a deficiency
7th step: Walk 15 minutes a day at minimum and do arm exercises starting on Monday for this goal.
8th: 1 high carb, high calorie day each week

OSW: 232 lbs
CSW: 152.8 lbs
CGW: 150 - 151
UGW: 125 lbs

Here is to wishing we can all achieve our goal! 🙏

07/02 @ 9 a.m.: 152.6 I ate really well but did not drink enough. I did a lot of housework too.
07/03 @ 9 a.m.: 152.8 I ate really well, but started getting hungry late night. I snacked, which is something I normally do not do. It was healthy, but it was late. I am also struggling with my water intake right now. I did go swimming though.
07/04 @ 9: 153 I ate well and stayed within my calories. I drank about 40 oz of water, which is a lot more than I usually do, so I do not get why it is creeping up. 😡 Happy 4th! 🥳💥

The gain would be my dinner and beer from last night.
Today I was reluctant to get up and do my exercises, but knowing I will post in a fresh round made me do it However, then I skipped boxing after work in favour for an eve on the sofa with DH (but without LNS✔️)
Now I have terrible ovulation pain, my whole side is on fire - time for bed.

No exercise in the morning, something is happening with my body. Hopefuly it's just cycle related and gone by tomorrow, along with a bit of weight.
Another busy day at work, didn't eat my breakfast. Also found out i'm going on a work trip on Sun eve, which will mess with my logging and workouts.

Yay, I got up for my run today!
I did need the calories as we had a "wine down" at work and then dinner with a colleague and our partners, followed by ice cream.
Dinner was a complete estimate at 1000cals plus a generously estimated amount of wine but all that was within my limit for the day. Now I'm very full and bloated and know will have a hard time getting up tomorrow morning. But I'll try.

Tue 02/07: 162.4: Goals: ✅Just trying to hold it steady.
Wed 03/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅
Thu 04/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅Had a busy day being foster mum to my daughter's 2 fur babies. Jack is very used to being with us, and is no trouble. Sydney is fairly new, and very nervous, and we haven't really got to know him until this week. DH is the doggie person in our house, but Sydney won't go near him, so I'm it! Worse than having a toddler in the house.

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!
