    Starting 8th round - these daily updates have been so helpful for me to stay on track! Thanks @GrandmaJackie !

    Female, 57 yy, 4'11''
    OSW: 177.1 lbs
    LTG: 110.0 lbs
    STG: 133.8 lbs 10 pounds away from MTG of healthy weight category - last seen 6/2011
    MTG: 123.8 lbs Leave Overweight category and get into Healthy BMI range (<= 25)- last seen 6/2010

    Goal for 10 day Challenge - lose 1.9 pounds (reach 132.0); should be able to make STG of 133.8 and then it is 10 pounds to the healthy weight BMI! Travel to a conference at end of week/early next week so eating lots of meals out will be a challenge.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    07/22 133.9 Starting off with a drop from the end of last round. Still not below lowest weight in last round, but will get there and make STG! Still felt like water retention from run/walk intervals on Saturday, but better after step & spin class today. NSV: bought cycle shoes which really helped in spin class today; will get the hang of them on the indoor cycles before even thinking about using them on my road bike :-)

    07/23 133.7 Small drop, but going in the right direction! Weight day today, so working on form and increased weight for deadlift, squat and bench press. Some sort of stomach bug throughout the day, so just did not have the energy to go back later for intervals for cardio and the pilates class. Hoping that tomorrow is better. Food/water good.

    07/24 133.5 Nice and steady (and still holding below STG)! A bit of a surprise after strength training and pasta for dinner yesterday, but was on target for calories yesterday (stomach bug probably helped clear out the system too). 60 minutes of spin class today and overall a lowish carb day (grilled peaches, pistachios and feta salad with salmon with a citrus sauce for dinner (basically trying to spruce up a SunBasket meal kit). Hope to get in an ab routine and some stretching for legs still before end of day.

    07/25 133.3 Woohoo! a new low (dropped below low from last round)! Expect that I will see a bump tomorrow with DOMS from weight training today (and cheat meal out of salad with grilled shrimp and french fries with family, but boy were they great!) NSV: went shopping after dinner and now back to small/extra small. Band size on bra has dropped 4 inches (according to the fitter), but cup size increased? Have to keep working on lower belly/upper thighs - slow and steady progress overall will address that with time!
