STARTING WEIGHT AND DATE WITH MFP (MY FITNESS PAL), Aug : 186.8
CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT: 187
Sept.2: 183.6
Sept. 9: 184.6 (I believe this is actually correct...got a new scale last week, was not calibrated correctly! 😡)
Sept.16: 184.6 ...weighed in again today (Sept. 20) scale said: 182.2!! so...I'm very happy about this! 😁 I'll try again on Mon., the 23rd...
Sept.23: 181.6 (I am more used to weighing myself on Fridays so I will probably be posting to my updates here 2x per week...if I keep that up! So far, I'm doing OK... 😉 ...On Friday Sept. 27 I weighed in @ 180.6.~ lost another pound!! yea!
Sept.30: 181.6 ...Well, that's kinda disappointing! I think it's partly due to swelling in my ankles, plus extra calories yesterday, AND most of all a real lack of exercise last week! But no worries here...I've hit plateaus before! I'll just keep on keepin' on!! Here's to a better week, right?!? 😉
Sept. Goal: by the 30th I want to be down to 180.
Sept. Actual: 181.6 (loss of 5.4 lbs)
Oct 7: (will weigh in for this date when the time comes) Today, the 4th, I weighed in @ 179.6! So it pays to PAY ATTENTION,. .....right?!? LOL ....weighed in again today, Monday, the 7th ~ still @ 179.6. I was hoping to lose that ".6" over the weekend...but who can resist homemade mac'n'cheese??! Oh well...back to the treadmill...onward and downward, as they say.... 💪
Oct 14: OK...so here it is, Friday 11 Oct ~ weighing in @ 177.6! lost another 2 lbs!!! 😁 See you all on Monday! ...~~ And now it's Monday the 14th, so once again....GOOD NEWS for yours truly: 176.8 lbs! I am feeling REALLY good about all this....lost 10.2 lbs, very hopeful about making my goal by the end of the year!
Oct 21: And now, for my Friday weigh-in, I am now down another 1/2 lb: 176.2. ...very encouraging! I've lost 1.5 lbs in the past week, even tho' I have not had a chance to do any real workout in the past few days. But today will be different, I have promised myself! I am home all day so there is NO excuse! ...and I will see how Monday's results shape up... ... ... Monday, the 21st: OUCH!! Today, Monday Oct 21 ~ UP a pound. weighed in this morning @ 177.2...I knew that 2nd cupcake yesterday was a mistake, but how many times does my youngest turn 31yo, right? 🎂 ...I don't see myself making my Oct goal of 175 lbs, but we shall see...I still have over a week til then, so maybe if I FOCUS this week I can come close! (even tho next week I have my granddaughter's b*day party ~ turning 8yo, born on Halloween 🎃) ...I will be more careful...
Oct 28: And here we are, on Friday 25 Oct, with my usual end-of-week post: This morning I came in @ 176.2 ~ so I lost that lb that was nagging at my conscience all week!! haha Big family get-together this Sunday @ my sister's house, so I will have to be especially diligent. *fingers crossed* ..... Monday, the 28th: 176.2 lbs. I am not gonna be disappointed about this ~ didn't gain, didn't lose (since Friday) and just relieved that I maintained yesterday @ the party! Only ONE slice of pizza...lol. The trouble with parties is this: the company is a delight. The food is delicious...but...I never know the count on anything!! 😱 ...but it was wonderful to see everybody! 😍 ...so I don't care lol.
Oct goal: 175
Oct actual: 174.4 (loss of another 7.2 lbs) 😂
Nov. 4: Today, Friday Nov 1 ~ weighed in this morning @ 174.4!! So I made my goal after all...and then some! It was a bit of a surprise ~ but a happy one. No one was home last night so I have no idea if we had any beggars or not...but we had no candy to give out because of other plans. And now I discovered a huge bag of leftover Halloween candy that my daughter brought home from a friend's house! I will just NOT snack too much on that. LOL ... 🎃🍫🍭....And once again, it's weigh-in day: Monday Nov 4 ~ down to 173 lbs!! so happy and proud of myself (if I may be allowed to boast here LOL) ...another birthday yesterday ~ my granddaughter turned 8yo on Halloween, so once again, cupcakes & IC all around! It was lots of fun 😂 but, remembering last week I made sure to hold back on those extra treats, and now it's paid off! kinda proud of myself .... 🤣...
Nov 11: Today is actually Sunday Nov 10, but I'm logging in early (rather late cuz I wasn't here on Friday) but I'm still @ 173lbs. I was holding more than usual on Friday ~ actually went UP 2lbs due to not enough working out, water weight, probably those darned cupcakes sitting on the kitchen counter all week(even tho' I counted them as meals, not snacks: eat one, skip lunch 😖) ~ so I decided to weigh myself a day early just to check up on myself. So, I'm happy that I lost those 2lbs but I still wish I could be lighter than this. I feel like this past week has been a waste.... from now on NO MORE CUPCAKES. ...even if they get thrown OUT! 😡
Nov. 18: It is the morning of Friday, Nov. 16. This is SO DEPRESSING! I weighed in @ 173.8 lbs. ...I have not lost a single ounce; as a matter of fact, I have gained nearly a lb back! And I was sure to get in a couple of workouts, I was as careful as possible counting my caloric intake...I've hit plateaus before, but THIS is RIDICULOUS! From now on, I am doing a workout every single day (except Sundays) & I'll see if that helps! (I don't even think I lost any inches, either!! 😭) But I am NOT giving up!! And I'll check in again on Monday, the 18th...hopefully with better news!
....UPDATE: On Sunday, Nov 17, I weighed myself (a day early) cuz for some reason that plateau was really buggin' me & my weight was down to 171.2! So finally, I rested easier...and then ~ This morning, Monday Nov 18, I was up a lb again: 172.2...but I'm thinkin' it must be water weight, right?!? No matter, at least I'm DOWN!! ...'bout time! 😊...
Nov. 25: 172.8 ...depressing? YES! I don't know what I did wrong all week, but I guess I'll just keep at it; sooner or later, it's gotta get better! 😩
Nov. Goal: 170 *revised*
Nov. Actual: 172.8
Challenge weight loss goal: 20-25lbs (my own goal ~ 20lbs)
Dec. 2: 172.6 ~ I actually lost .2 lb! I must admit to being happily surprised by this even tho' I had hoped for better during this past month. But at least I can be relieved that I didn't gain during all that Thanksgiving feasting! 🦃🥧
Dec. 9: ...Fri Dec. 6~ back up to 172.8...I was hoping to lose at least a lb this past week, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be! Anyway, not losing hope, not giving up! I'll just have to watch it over the weekend, try again on Mon! (BTW...are we doing this again for the Winter?? I feel like I need to be held accountable LOL.) ....AGH!!! It's a TOTAL MONDAY this week, folks~ my weigh-in was NOT good. I went up to 174.2 lbs. This is such a bad time of the year for me...THREE birthdays celebrated yesterday, plus Thanksgiving last week and all that pumpkin pie sitting in the fridge with no one home to eat it but myself, so of course it made my lunch a couple of times 😩 ...it was, of course, the only thing I ate, but still....Anyway, I don't see myself making my goal by the end of Dec. unless I knock it off & GET BUSY!! No more cheating (birthday cakes are DONE, thank goodness!) Back to WORK!!! 😡😭 .....
Dec. 16: (Fri Dec 13 ~ 174 lbs...Again, I lost that .2 lb but still....why does FP tell you to eat extra calories when you work some off w/ exercise? That just defeats the whole purpose, doesn't it?!? I'm gonna just ignore that from now on & stick to the usual 1200 per day until I make my goal....hope I lose over the weekend!! 🤞 ... And here it is, Mon Dec 16 ~ I weighed in this morning @ 174.8 lbs. So once again, a disappointing start to the week, but it really is my own doing; my daughter brought over a tin of Christmas cookies that she & the kids made; fortunately, I was not the only one home...but I do confess to enjoying a bite or ten. 😜 Starting today, it's BACK TO WORK. I am determined to make (at least) close to my goal....hoping to get down to 170 lbs?!? by the end of this month!
Dec. 23: Fri Dec 20 ~ well, at least it's DOWN from Monday's results: 174.6 lbs today. I'm finally heading in the right direction...Mon Dec 23 ~ 172.6 ...I don't know what I was thinking on Fri, but I'm not sure that post is correct, as Sat I weighed 171.8!! Anyway.... I'll log in again in a few days, see where that lands me! ... Fri Dec 27 ~ still 171.8, so I guess that's that for any "binging" I may have done during the holidays! I guess, to put it bluntly, "nuthin' to see here, folks" LOL

Congrats to everyone who posted here and I hope to see you on the Winter Challenge!

Realized that I never set a goal for December, and was honestly going to be happy with maintaining. So a 3.5 lb loss is good news overall.
Really happy to have joined this challenge, you all helped and encouraged me quite a bit! Best wishes for 2020!!

What a fantastic job, not just the challenge, but for the year, you've done great, congratulations! Hope to watch your progress during the 2020 Winter Challenge too!3 -
Original starting weight (March 2013) - 175.4
Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
August 30, 2019 starting weight - 146.0 (ten-day rolling average 146.7)
Ultimate goal - Maintain around 143 (range between 140 - 150)
I had achieved my goal last Winter and gone into maintenance. I have mostly stayed within my goal range, but have bounced around a bit. Now as the seasons change again, a new maintenance challenge awaits. I'm sticking to it!
September 1: 143.0 (10-day average 145.8) This is the meteorological beginning of fall.
September 2: 148.2 (10-day average 146.0) Look how the scale went up so much but the average just a little.
September 9: 147.2 (10-day average 145.2)
September 16: 144.0 (10-day average 144.4)
September 23: 141.8 (10-day average 142.7) Equinox - astronomical start of fall. I am now at my goal weight.
September 30: 139.4 (10-day average 141.4)
September Goal: 143
September Actual: I passed my goal and kept losing. Not a real problem yet, and I'm happy with it.
October 7: 139.2 (10-day average 140.0)
October 14: 144.4 (10-day average 141.1)
October 21: 142.2 (10-day average 142.4)
October 28: 142.6 (10-day average 143.3)
October 31 - 144.6 (10-day average 143.8)
October Goal: 143
October Actual: Uh oh. I am up from my monthly goal.
November 4: 146.0 (10-day average 143.8)
November 11: 145.6 (10-day average 144.6) - checking in a day early this week as I'm going to be in a rush tomorrow at 05:30
November 18: 143.6 (10-day average 144.8)
November 25: 145.2 (10-day average 143.8)
November 30: 146.2 (10-day average 144.4)
November Goal: 143.0
November Actual: Close, but... nope.
December 7: 145.4 (10-day average 144.7)
December 14: 143.8 (10-day average 144.8)
End of Fall (08:18 PST December 21): 144.2 (10-day average 144.6)
December 28: 144.6 (10-day average 145.0)
I started posting in the Winter challenge, and then I thought maybe I should also wrap up the month here. I may or may not update tomorrow for the last day of the month since I've been updating on Saturdays. I don't EVEN want to think about what the scale said TODAY. Yuck. At least it gives me something to work on in the new year!
Weight lost this week: If you just go by the scale, I'm up about a half pound. Again. Just like last week. If you look at my average, it's also up about a half pound, unlike being just a little less last week. Next week might not look good .
December Goal: 143.0
December Actual: Still over
Challenge Weight loss goal: Range between 142-148
Actual Weight loss for the challenge: I'm still in my goal range by scale and average, just not by as much as I prefer. Not sure if this means I was successful or not :frown: The bright side: I do now see that I never revised my goal range in THIS challenge. I've expanded it to 140-150 most other places, and that means staying in my range is even more a success here than elsewhere, so I'll allow myself to celebrate that one good thing this week.
All and all, I should be glad that I've had a successful year on maintaining my mass.

I am still showing a loss from my starting weight for the challenge so I guess I will have to be happy with that (considering all the holidays since we started). I will definitely do better next round!

Note: I was sick for two weeks around the holidays. I was also very depressed, as it was the first Christmas without my mom. That has been extremely difficult. I gained 5 lbs over this time (holiday foods, lack of exercise and depression). At first the weight gained made me feel worse... but I now realise it's completely normal under the circumstances and I'm ok with it. I'm slowly getting back on track now.
😊 I hope all you beautiful people had wonderful holidays and have a great start in the new year. 😊
