Round 87 GW: 220
Additional Goal for this round - Try to reach my Garmin goal of 8100 steps a day 8 out of the 10 challenge days
08/21 - 224.2 - I thought it would be more. My eating was not the greatest yesterday as I traveled for work and had a high sodium lunch.
08/22 - 223.8 - Went for a nice long walk yesterday with my youngest. Hit my step goal!
08/23 - 223 - I'm always surprised when the number goes down. I did not meet my step goal yesterday
08/24 - 225.6 - Due to all of the pizza and cheesy bread I ate Friday night. It's funny because my goal for each weekend is to not undo the work I've done during the week. We'll see were things go from her. I'm getting a little frustrated with myself for not meeting my step goals.
08/25 - 223.6 - Flushed a lot of the sodium from Friday out of my system. Yesterday was a more active day as I was at the church picnic and did a lot more moving around. I've been off of my exercise game since I came back from Orlando. I was sick and the fatigue I was battling was my excuse. I've now been back for 2 weeks and should have no excuses. - I hit my step goal yesterday!
08/26 - 222.4 - Yay! Total surprise, but not really. I've been fairly good with meeting my food goals. - Did not meet my step goals yesterday despite all the housework I did. I have to meet my step goals everyday until the end of the challenge to hit my target for these 10 days.

Height: 5'0" (152cm)
SW: 168.4lbs on 6/23/19
GW: 100 lbs (If no weight training)
Round SW: 160.2 lbs (Last weigh-in before trip)
Earlier this round:08/21 160.2lbs (0.0 lbs)
No change from yesterday. Kind of nice. Didnβt start my fat fast yet as I donβt want to throw food. But Iβm limiting it, Iβm not snacking aside from vitamins. Vegas weight is still there. Iβve also been eating 2h later than usual. Will try to stop at 7 tonight instead of 8.
08/22 159.6lbs (-0.6 lbs)
Iβm surprised. I finished eating just 30min earlier than the past week or so. I had fries for lunch, but only some salami and HWC for dinner. Feels good to see a green entry for a change.
08/23 159.4lbs (-0.2 lbs)
Iβm still not back to keto. No plans to this weekend, but Iβm still slowly getting back to where I was which I like. I only do 2 meals per day, and it seems to work.
08/24 160.2lbs (+0.8 lbs)
So Iβm back again. I did have some HWC very late last night instead of just water. I think that could have save me. Will be fasting to late afternoon today. At home for a change (havenβt been home over a weekend for 3 weeks now), so it might actually be doable today. Gonna stick to some well needed fasting, and keto today. All my carb foods are finally gone after the camping.
08/25 159.8lbs (-0.4 lbs)
So back down a little. Damn water weight. At least Iβm still lower than I was before the camping trip. Still got 4 more lbs t lose before Iβm back to pre-Vegas.
08/26 161.4lbs (+2.4 lbs)
I was exhausted yesterday. I didnβt drink enough, cooked for the next 2 weeks I believe (meant to only do one week). Was on my feet running to farmerβs market, Safeway, cooking, and cleaning out some stuff from the apartment all day from 10am to I believe 6pm. Didnβt sit once. Ended up in splurging on chocolate in the evening. Itβs like Iβve lost anything called discipline. And the weight reflects it. I have a plan for the week. Now I just have to follow through. It hasnβt been my biggest accomplishment this past month. Letβs see what happens.

08/21-210.9 - I had a super stressful morning and that is when I'd usually get McDonald's but I didn't!! I also passed on free A&W for lunch at work tomorrow. YESSS! Starting off strong!
08/22 - 209.1 - Last night was rough but I made it with a calorie deficit! I'm feeling really motivated.
08/23 -210.3 - Oh HELL NAW!! Lol well, I did have subway yesterday and went over on my sodium. Not a good way to start my Friday but I still made my salad for lunch. I've been weighing my food lately so I know it's not a true gain.
08/24 - 208.6 - Woohoooo! Buuut I must confess! I had a really crappy morning and ended up binge eating some chocolate chips. I'm trying really hard to separate my emotions from eating. I'm going to do what I can to salvage today but I have a feeling that the almost 1000 calories I consumed in chocolate and milk will reflect in tomorrow's weight. Oh well! It's a step forward regardless. At least I'm logging it and owning up to it instead of pretending it didnt happen!
08/25 - 209.7 - As I suspected!! Lol
08/26 - 210.9 - I had another not so great day yesterday. We went to the Keg and I went over my calories and consumed a lot of sodium so not my best couple of days. The good news is that I'm back on it today!!

8/22: 296.2
8/23: 296.4 I had a late dinner and slept poorly thanks to my continued cold. But Iβm on track with calories and this blip will be short lived.
8/24: 298.8 All water weight. I ate closer to maintenance yesterday and it was a high carb day.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/21 - 223.0 Wednesday - Ate well, but a few too many sugar-free candies
08/22 - 222.6 Thursday - Ate Well, played baseball, no late night snacking
08/23 - 221.6 Friday - Feeling tired.
08/24 - 219.6 Saturday- A great start to weekend with lots of temptations ahead
08/25 - 219.8 Sunday - Not too bad. Friends came over for a BBQ and drinks Saturday night but I was active cleaning and weeding in the morning, and saved extra calories for the evening. Had approx. maintenance level of calories but more carbs than I should have. Vodka Sodas and Splenda Mojitos.
08/26 - 221.8 Monday - Back where I was on Friday morning. I attended a catered dinner event Sunday night so I'm pretty sure this is just some water weight from hidden salt/carbs and most will be gone by tomorrow. I tracked and I should have had a small calorie deficit for the day. No alcohol.

08/22 182 (-2.5) I didnβt think Iβd lose anything from yesterday since I went off my meal plan. Had a cheat meal as well as a beer at the Dodger game.
08/23 181 (-1.0) Back on track and holding myself accountable.
08/24 182 +1.0 Birthday celebration at work and I went off the meal plan. Managed to stay within my calories but gained 1 pound. I had a late workout and late dinner. Today will be a better day.
08/25 182 +/- 0 Off to a good start, I went to the gym, cleaned the house, ate clean up until dinner. I had King Taco for dinner, after I tracked the 5 tacos I realized I had to much sodium for the day.
08/26 181 (-1.0) Did very well today, clean eating and 45 minute stationary back ride. Oh yeah, meal prepped for the week too βΊοΈ

Day/Weight/Comment:
08/21: 137.4 lbs - haven't worked out in a few days (self imposed hiatus to heal my shoulder/elbow) and had a salty late night snack last night, not a good choice. Tonight will be better - my late night snacking buddy will be out of town .
08/22: 136.0 lbs - hmmm, barely ate yesterday so this will probably go back up but pretty cool to see this number. I did work out just a little last night but am back to taking time off for a couple more days. Hoping my neck/shoulder/elbow is all better before my tournament this Sunday. No LNS yesterday.
08/23: 135.6 lbs - maybe a week of not working out is just what my body needed. Planning to work out tomorrow and then Iβve got a big tournament Sunday, will see how the scale responds.
08/24: 135.6 lbs - two days in a row at this number. Nice. Worked out just a couple hours in the sun, took it easy. Have a dinner out with friends tonight, will try to stay on track.
08/25: DNW, up and out too early. Had a pickleball tournament about an hour away, we came in second. Again. Almost as frustrating as trying to lose weight .
08/26: 137.2 lbs - not surprised, the last few days caught up with me and I was craving salt yesterday. Besides, this is the weight my body likes to be at, spent the last 2 months moving back and forth from this number. Just going to keep moving forward with good choices, they will pay off eventually. Maybe I need to do a fast day or something?

I took my moderately paced evening walk for 54 minutes, did 40 minutes of light cabin cleaning, 25 minutes of yard work / painting and I did 16 minutes of low-impact aerobics.

Yesterdays stats were very good & reflected on the scale: 1206 Calories In / 2756 Calories Out. 25 Net Carbs. 15,162 Total Steps & 6.42 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours (a more relaxing day concerning exercise) & I slept 6 hours & 31 Glorious minutes but was up a lot peeing out that weight drop. I walked moderate pace for 45 minutes & I did 118 minutes of rigorous tourist cabin cleaning. Total extra burn was 808. Lots of sitting today while traveling expected so getting my steps in may be difficult. If Iβm up to it, I may dance later.

Round 87 β August 21 β 30
Female - 66, height 5β Things getting back to a more even keel although still doing a lot of slow eating while my mouth adjusts. Goals this round β one good snack in the evening before 9:30 and nothing else. Ab exercise each day. Try to fit in a short walk a few times a week and doing stairs 5 times a day. (I broke first my left, then my right ankles a few years ago and am back to normal except going down stairs where I tend to hang onto the railing). Log on MFP for the whole day β I tend to get about Β½ way through and then conveniently βforgetβ for the rest of the day and think βit was pretty good anyways.β

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21: 225.6 (-0.6)/19.1 (-0.1). There was a lunch celebration/going away party at work yesterday. I was very mindful about what I ate, and particularly how much. I also skipped dessert completely. Dinner was not the healthiest thing I've ever had, but I chose carefully in order to stay within calories. Today was a victory in that this was a situation in the past in which I may have very easily been derailed. I'm going to try again tonight to hit the gym. I need to check in with my wife before she leaves work to confirm that she is going to make it home on time; otherwise I'll go by myself.
8/22: 225.8 (+0.2)/19.1 (0.0). Food quantity has been pretty good, but I could do better on food quality. And exercise has GOT to make its way back into my life at some point as well. I think basketball is not coming back for another two weeks (first day will likely be 9/7/2019).
8/23: 227.0 (+1.2)/19.3 (+0.2). Okay, yesterday was pretty bad. There was an all-day meeting at the office, celebratory drinks after said meeting, and my mother's 79th birthday yesterday (Mexican dinner out, cake after). I did my best to make healthy choices, but I'm pretty sure I was significantly over in calories. I'm going to make today a good day, and I'm going to focus on having a HEALTHY CHOICE weekend (planning what I'm going to eat in advance, ESPECIALLY if/when I'm going to be eating out). It's looking more and more like I will not be seeing the basketball court tomorrow. I'm going to commit to hitting the gym at least once this weekend (today, Saturday, or Sunday).
8/24: Didn't weigh.
8/25: Didn't weigh.
8/26: 229.0 (+2.0)/19.5 (+0.3). I had an emotional, sucky weekend, and it took a bit of energy to login today to get back on track and remain accountable. Well, here I am. I'm adjusting my goal, and I'll be ecstatic if I'm able to get back to my starting weight for the round (though any progress in the downward direction would be nice at this point).

08/21 138.4, difficult boxing class yesterday but made it through. Love that there are classes I can finish now that I would have been struggling with before. Happy hour after work today so will try to bank some calories for that.
08/22 138.4, ended up eating dinner really late (9:45pm) so happy to see this number. Back to normal today with all meals prepped at home. Hoping to combat any lingering weight gain from yesterday.
08/23 138, back to my lowest weight this weight loss journey and matches a five year low. 65.7% of the way to my goal so hoping to see 2/3rds by the end of the month. Going to food truck meetup tonight so weight might be up a bit tomorrow for sodium, but will keep my calories in check.
08/24 138, ate well yesterday, but went way over today. I had a milkshake and had no idea how many calories are in them! Feel terrible both physically (body is not very used to that food anymore) and about stalling this weekβs progress for a while. Tomorrow is another day and keep learning that some foods are deceptively high calories.
08/25 138.9, slight blip, but will hopefully will be going back down as we end the round
08/26 138.3, ready to tackle the week and end this round below 138

I'm back and hoping to get rid of the almost 10 pounds I "gained" in the last round. I know it isn't a real gain, but it's still very annoying. I was dealing with hormones and the a death in the family last round, so it just wasn't a great round for me. I have been doing this long enough to know that freaking out isn't going to do anything and I just need to get back on the horse and take care of business. I just found out we will be leaving on the last day of this round and going to Texas for my father-in-laws funeral services. So I have 10 days to get back down, so that I can take a 4 day weekend and hopefully do better than last weekend.

Round 86: 139.6 - 148.2 Avg 144.08
08/21 - 145.1 and just like that, there goes 3 pounds of sodium/stress weight overnight. Crazy what a little bit of water and eating at home does for you. Today is all set and I should be down more tomorrow. Things are finally calming down at home and after a long drive by the lake last night to clear our heads, my husband and I slept like babies. Amazing how you feel so different after a great nights sleep.
08/22 - 144.1 was within calories and probably would have been lower, but I chose to use soy sauce on my rice last night for dinner. So my sodium was way higher for the day than it should have been. As long as I can get back down to 142/141 something by the end of this round and stay there for a couple of days I will be happy.
08/23 - 142.1 And I am back here. I think this is a realistic weight for me right now. I have been at 142.xxx for 10 out of 23 days this month. I have been lower and higher, but it always comes back to here. Hopefully I can consistently see 141 before leaving next Friday, but you never know what's going to happen. Was very low cal all day yesterday and should be today as well.
08/24 - 142.1 Was on point again yesterday. Cleaning, laundry, errands, and grocery shopping is on the to do list today. So hopefully I donβt fall off the wagon this weekend.
08/25 - 143.1 up a bit and no real reason that I should be. Had a couple of beers watching the Cowboys game last night so maybe itβs because of that. Going to lunch with family and having a fantasy football draft party tonight. So Iβm expected to be up tomorrow a bit, but hopefully not to bad.
08/26 - 146.9 My normal Monday blip up. Had breakfast out yesterday morning and took a rest day. I am really sore for some reason today, maybe from all the activity I did on Saturday and I had a pretty restless nights sleep last night. Was hoping to be lower, but with everything going on right now, I am just happy that I am able to maintain at this point. I ate a few 100 calories over yesterday, but this is all sodium and water retention from not eating my normal foods. I should be back down by Tuesday and hopefully finish the month at 141. If I can do that it will at least give me a 2lb loss for the month.

08/21 201.2 (-.4) had a late weigh In today. Got up and left the house early. This weigh in was after breakfast and lunch. So not too bad of results. Well see what tomorrow brings.
08/22 199.6 (-1.6) well this game as a shock to me. Although I felt I did pretty good with my calories. I wasnβt amazing. And I even went to the dodger game had a few drinks. Iβm happy with the result. Now as long as I can keep this trend weβll be great!
08/23 198.8 (-.8) staying focused. Staying on track. Even when i donβt want to. When i think Iβm too tired I just keep going. I know I can do this!
08/24 199.6 (+.8) went over cal by a small amount. Didnβt work out at all. Had a rough day mentally and emotionally and just couldnβt do it. But thought I did pretty good with eating. Guess not
08/25 198.6 (-1.0) didnβt do great yesterday but didnβt do horrible. Worked out a little. Striving for a better today
08/26 199.0 (+.4) thought I had a good day yesterday. But looking forward to a better today and week. Weekends are always harder

Day/Weight/Comment
08/21 - 206!! Yay! Starting this round out with a drop. Didn't sleep very much and have a bad migraine today, will probably not exercise but I'll at least take the dog for a walk. Sticking to my macro/calorie goals with my meal plan and hoping to feel better tomorrow
08/22 - 206.3! No clue what made it go up a bit but I'm starting to learn my weight fluctuates all the time so I'm trying to focus on the trend which is definitely going down. My TOM is probably not helping anything here either. Stuck to calories/macros, didn't exercise very much just walking
08/23 - 204.4!! Holy cow, what a drop! Doubt I'll stay this low through the rest of the week but it makes me feel good to see a 4 on the scale π€© Did a really intense workout today and am sticking to cals/macros so hopefully I continue to make progress
08/24 - 204.4 again! Wahoo! I was sure yesterday's weigh-in was a fluke but I didn't fluctuate at all overnight. I'm sure I'll fluctuate again later but at least this means that 4 wasnt a total fluke. Will try to kayak later today and sticking well to my food goals today. My FH is having a boys weekend at our house this weekend and their wives cancelled our girls weekend at the last minute so I'm going to try to keep myself busy with hikes and kayaks and chores so I'm not awkwardly in the way of their boy-time. Hopefully that means extra exercise and less food temptations than I'd planned for this weekend
08/25 - 203.6! Wow, can't believe it! Another drop π€© so happy. Had a really frustrating day yesterday, major car troubles, then waiting at mechanic for it to be fixed, then leaving realizing it wasnt fixed, going back, waiting again, leaving again, realizing again, going back again... Didn't get much exercise then but I also didnt have time to eat much so I guess that's why there's a drop. Hopefully will have time to kayak or do something fun today. On track to stick to calorie goals for the day so far.
08/26 - 204.4 and back up again! The ways of the fluctuating weight, I guess, but still on a downward trend so I'm happy. Ended up having even more car troubles and getting a flat tire, so spent most of the day fixing that Trying to get some work done today and focusing on sticking to my calorie goals and finding some time to exercise today.

CW: 126.6 lbs, CGW: 125 lbs
08/24 -126.6 lbs : stuck to no drinking on Fri night as well as no takeout. Ended up munching junk to curb the cravings. Proud of it though. Need to find good substitute activities for Fri. I like to have an awesome Fri after week, anyhing less is depressing.
08/25 - 126.6 lbs : logged everything I ate on Sat. Cooked special meals but kept it healthy. Declined suggestion to drink with good logic.
08/26 - 128 lbs : resisted suggestions nd urge to drink. Ate junk to compensate. Over calories >.5x. Pick up the pace during the week and be more active

Slow&steady... I'm a bit annoyed with myself, I looked back through previous rounds and I had been down to 70.7kg a few months ago. Need to work harder!
I was super hungry today and worked from home, which basically means zero steps. I then went for a good run in the eve to "earn" my dinner and managed to avoid LNS.

Forgot to post yesterday. Day started well, with a run. But obviously went over at work, locked in a room for 7 hours and then went for dinner & drinks with the team. But that as nice. And back down today. DH is away for a couple of days, which means healthy choices for me and it should be a fairly active weekend.

Meh, this is probably Fri night showing up... It'll go away again. But I still have a long way to go and only 5 days to lose 0.8kg, which is 0.3kg more than at the beginning of this round. But being aware of this stopped me from LNS last night π
I didn't get to do my long run this weekend, temperatures have gone up and I decided to socialise instead and enjoy the weather, which may be the last of summer, including a swim in the sea, which was awesome.

Ok, 0.5 to go til goal weight. But I now see that I also wanted to reach 71.0 end of Aug. That's not realistic now, but my round goal of 71.6 is,so I'll work towards that.
I had a stressful day, slipped up a little, but reigned it back in.. almost... Apart from an ice cream, which was within cals.
No real exercise as I was too tired in the morning, this little heat wave is exhausting.

This morning I will go on my 7 mile walk before I head to the hospital. Have a good week everyone! βοΈπ
So sorry to hear this news about your FIL - I know how difficult it is sitting by the bedside, my Dad broke his only 4 weeks ago - he is 85, but also suffers with dementia. I really hope your FIL makes a full recovery as quickly as possible, hugs to both of you xx.5 -

Day / Weight / Comment
8/21 - 143.0 Slight fluctuation up from where I ended last round, but all within normal range. Yesterday was good - no snacking, ate my packed lunch, dinner came together well (another easy favorite: Gnocchi Skillet with Sweet Potatoes, Green, & Goat Cheese. I add sliced chicken sausage too, and it comes out to about 500 calories/10 oz serving). No workout but I had enough energy for some tasks around the house that I've been putting off for a while. All in all, feeling good!
8/22 - 142.2 **New Low** Ok, I know this instant gratification train will have to end at some point but I'm just enjoying ever stop along the way right now! Yesterday was on point: ate exactly what I pre-logged (breakfast shake, coffee, meal prepped chicken bowls for lunch, apple for daytime snack, and leftover chicken tacos for dinner). I shifted my gym schedule around this week, so I was able to do a different class than normal yesterday and I think I need to make it part of my regular routine! A lot of tough sets that included kettlebells, resistance bands, medicine balls, body weight exercises that leaned slightly toward a leg day, but really worked out the whole body. Even though I've been slacking on my pushup practice, when it came time to do a pushup as part of a set, I jumped right down and knocked out 3 in a row on my toes! Started packing for the beach last night by trying on some bathing suits - welcome back to the rotation, pre-baby bikinis! I feel like one or two even look BETTER than they did before I got pregnant. Tonight I have a dinner/banquet type meeting at a restaurant with some pretty rich food. I'm eating a light lunch in preparation, and just plan to be very mindful of what I put on my plate and when I get full.
8/23 - 142.0 **New Low** A little unexpected, but I'll take it! Yesterday was pretty good, even though I did have two glasses of wine and some dessert at my dinner. But I tracked it as best I could, and didn't snack once I got home. Hope everyone is having a very happy Friday!
8/24 - 141.4 **New Low** So this is what it looks like when I stay the course and do everything Iβm supposed to for an extended period of time! Yesterdayβs eating was right where it needed to be, along with water. Already did my Saturday morning workout (full body weights with cardio), prepping for our beach trip next week, and have a family dinner out tonight. Iβll try to make some smart choices!
8/25 - 141.8
8/26 - 142.8 A little up today after the weekend! Saturday night's dinner was one of the best restaurant meals I've had in a while, so absolutely zero regrets about indulging there! But Sunday ended up being a lot of small snacks/grazing (another kid's bday party), which led to more snacking than I should have. But I prepped lunches for the week (a delicious and filling tomato soup made with coconut milk and chickpeas) and am going to the gym tonight. Ready to crush the final days of this round!

π₯ I tired but airport food and eating out completely makes it hard.

π§ 85oz water.
08/24 - 129.4 (-1lb) - traveling outcome.
π₯ I tried to eat as healthy as possible while traveling but it was impossible when in some airports. Iβm happy itβs not much higher than it is, although it could still hit me in a few days, weβll see.
π£ 10,955 steps.
π§ 97oz water.
08/25 - 130.1 (+0.7lbs) - TOM finally hit and some DOMS so itβs water retention. SO happy to be home and back in my routine, I missed it!! Not to mention I hate flying and business trips in general but not being able to eat healthy and workout was very hard for me.
π₯ Food was ok, not super healthy because I was eating out. Need to shop now that Iβm back from my trip. Was still under cals.
ππ»ββοΈ 1hr 5min strength.
ππ»ββοΈ 20min cardio.
π£ 12,331 steps.
π§ 126oz water.
08/26 - 128.7 (-1.4lbs) - not sure why I dropped. Definitely have DOMs and water retention from TOM. Iβll take it though!
π₯ Food was good until the evening. I went out for dinner and went crazy with appetizers, main dish, and dessert π€¦π»ββοΈ... I knew that meant more exercise so I came home and did another round of cardio so that I wouldnβt be over cals. Which is why Iβm at 2.5hrs of exercise today. Donβt feel guilty for that deep fried banana now. But tomorrow is grocery shopping and back on nutritious food... my body is craving it!
ππ»ββοΈ 1hr 15min strength.

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.
