So I am going to be out of town for the first 3 days of this round to attend my FIL's services. I am not going to have a lot of control over my food choices seeing as I will be eating what my husband's family will be serving and probably a lot of restaurant food. This round I am sure is just going to be another maintenance round for me, which I am fine with. If it takes me losing a pound or two a month until the end of the year to finally reach my goal I am fine with that.
8/31 - no scale out of town
9/1 - no scale out of town
9/2 - no scale out of town
9/3 - 148.7 didn't post yesterday, but did weigh.
9/4 - 146.7 going back down to my normal weight. Should be well under 145 by tomorrow. Was a very stressful weekend, it's so weird how death affects everybody differently. We actually had some lady show up to the services saying she had a will and wanted everything my FIL owned (which by the way isn't a lot,lol). It was so weird and over the top, never expected anything like that. I am just glad to be home and back to some kind of "normal" routine. We had to go grocery shopping after work last night as we had nothing to even cook dinner with. I also had 3 loads of laundry that needed to be done and had to help the 2 youngest finish unpacking. To say the that I am exhausted is a complete under statement. I put a pot roast on for tonight and am planning on picking up a red-box and doing nothing but relaxing. I am working on my water, but other than that my motivation is not great. I'm trying, but half heartily right now and I am ok with that. Glad to be back and just have some accountability at this point.

Working to get back to 155, but weightlifting & maintenance level of eating is building strength. Doctor & PT think I’m healthier slightly higher.
Still deciding, because as Much as I like my fitter legs, glutes, arms, energy, I’m decidedly unhappy with what’s happened just above my belly button!!

09/03 184.2 The weekend is really putting a damper on this challenge. I am not "going overboard" but I feel that I get a salt/water weight bump that takes a little bit to go away..Hope to see 183 something tomorrow. 19 days radiation left.
09/04 184.2 holding steady. I saw my BF% go down though and that usually means that I am holding some water. Maybe drink extra water today! Cucumbers! Salad!

Thank you, @jazzeb ! That's great advice! I will try David's. I didnt know you could ask stores to get larger samples, I figured you were SOL for finding out how the dress looks if the sample doesnt fit you2

Too much snacking yesterday, even a 45mins evening run didn't earn enough calories for dinner. Waiting for TOM might explain my sugar cravings during the day.
Uptick is probably a slightly uncontrolled the weekend showing.
I would like to say I'm ready to get back to healthy, but I'm not enjoying it very much. I don't think I'll ever stop wanting all the sweets. And then I think it's just a bit of vanity weight I want to get rid off - is it worth the logging and planning and restricting myself?

08/31 - out of town DNW. Went to a friend's wedding and had a lot of fun. Managed to stay keto despite all the delicious looking temptations. Went for a hike before the wedding, so got a little exercise in
09/01 - out of town DNW. Went wedding dress shopping and the store had only three dresses that fit me 😭 most of their samples were street size equivalent 10 and below. I felt really crappy and embarrassed and also just stressed about how I'm going to find a dress I like if I cant even see what they look like on me. But I'm trying to move past it and start looking for wedding stores that carry bigger sizes. Made it home this afternoon and some friends stayed the night with us. They made cocktails and cookies and got a giant bag of peanut m&ms... All things I love and I kept wanting to give in but I didn't. So I have that positive to hold onto from today
09/02 - 204.4! First weigh in after two days away. A little bit up but not as high as I had feared. I looked so big yesterday in those dresses, I thought for sure I gained back. Now to hopefully make progress in the other direction! Doing lots of chores today but will try to exercise and stick to my calorie goals.
09/03 - 204.6 up again. I'm surprised it's not higher because I feel SO bloated this morning. I dont know why. Hopefully with exercise and good diet today, I can reverse this and start to go down a little
09/04 - 203.4! I can't believe it! So happy, I hope I'm able to keep this up and this isn't just a quick blip down before bouncing back up again. Had a lot of trouble focusing at work yesterday, trying to do better today. Sticking to my diet and hoping to get a good youtube workout in today. Yesterday I did a popsugar video that I liked, so maybe I'll see what other videos they have.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31: 197.8 (+/- 0) I didn’t think yesterday was horrible but I guess it wasn’t great. Weighed in today after my light breakfast. But not gaining is ok by me. Guess I’ll make this a 9 day challenge.
9/1: 199.0 (+1.2) well this challenge isn’t working so much so far. I did good all day yesterday. Even went to a wedding and didn’t eat. Ate McDonalds late but only half the food. Still early. Still hopeful
9/2: 198.2 (-.8) not to bad. Had a good workout yesterday. But ate a lot of junk food in small quantity. Mostly because I had a late lunch/ early dinner and was getting hungry. As long as it’s going down. Hopefully I can get back to my starting weight
9/3: 197.6 (-.6) yesterday wasn’t great but wasn’t horrible. Today is my daughters birthday and she’s requesting carb overload for birthday dinner. I’ll try to control myself. But sometimes there has to be risk to get a reward.
9/4: 198.0 (+.4) not to bad for celebrating my youngest daughters birthday with carb overload. I did my best to have portion control. But I also hadn’t eaten most of the day knowing most my calories would be going to dinner. Plus also haven’t slept much the past few days. Going to hit the gym and hope I can work it off.

@jazzeb A pound of feathers, fat, or muscle is still a pound. The difference is the VOLUME.
@Hilogirl2018 After being as low as 119.5 last month, when I weighed 122.0 AGAIN this morning, I said to myself that I need to stick to what works for me and get rid of the junk. DGD and friends left 2 partial bags of chips. DH ate one bag last night but I had taken the other - my favorites. This is how I handled them!

NEVER GIVE UP! You can surprise yourself! I have.
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
8/30 No scale. On a ship.
******
8/31 NWI Up before 5AM! BPC on board. Back to Long Beach and fly home. Will add final weight on 9/1 which might be up due to travel but will be fine. Still fit in my size 4 shorts - good thing because that’s all I brought! El Pollo Loco double chicken avocado salad. Half for lunch when we got home and half for dinner after picking up DGD and her friends at the airport, taking them for groceries and dropping them at their hotel.
9/1 122.0 Back home in my own bed last night. Ship’s beds are comfortable but there’s no place like home!
9/2 122.0 I didn’t drink enough water on the ship last week because I failed to take my larger water glass. Now need to get back at it. I’ve caught up on the posts from the time I logged in last night. Missed 137 posts in the last round but c’est la vie.
9/3 DNW Three 22 year olds in the house (DGD#2 and 2 of her high school friends made there annual girls trip to Las Vegas.) We gave them the hall bathroom which is where the scale is. It was in use when I got up early. My tummy is very grumpy this morning. Yesterday OMAD at Golden Corral, no snacks except cream in my coffee.
9/4 122.0 Realized in the evening that I had not had my BPC in the morning as one of the girls was sleeping the couch. Bouncing back is harder when you get older- even a few months older. All of this travel is having an impact also. Being with @Mbabydoll was the BEST! I know I can do this. Making good choices with an occasional treat works. I did drink more water.9 -

Round 88 GW: 198
GW: 140
08/31: 203.4(This is my first round. As long as I’ve had MFP on my phone, this is my first week speaking in forums. I’ve been tracking this time for almost a week. Squats and walking 3 miles each day for 10 days. I’ll find my rhythm soon.
09/01: 201.8 I’m not sure what I did to lose. I went over calories by 85 calories and I didn’t walk my 3 miles yesterday. I did get on the elliptical for 20 minutes but nothing intense. I believe I’ve been building muscle walking on incline and doing squats. Muscle does weigh more than fat so maybe after 11 days of walking/squats my body is finally showing me some results. I did start walking around the same time I started logging calories so I wasn’t seeing any movement or it would go down 2lbs for a day and then go back up 2 days later. I did watch my carbs yesterday and I drank 96 oz water.
09/02: 201
09/03: 203 I missed two days at the gym back-to-back. I couldn’t use my app for a couple of hours yesterday and by the time my phone was working again my calories took a hit. I finished my carb heavy/ calorie heavy brunch and didn’t realize the damage while I was enjoying my meal. No worries as I’m back on track with the walking and calorie tracking.
09/04 203.6 I was able to get back on track and walk 3 miles yesterday. I stayed within calories but I did allow myself a small cheat as a snack. I’m not sure if the increase but I’m not too concerned. If I stick with trackinf it will pay off on the scale. Happy Tracking😊

@quiltingjaine Wow, you truly got rid of them, no going back! Good idea- I'm fine around a lot of junky snacks (chips, for example), and most sweets I can do in moderation, but certain treats are probably disposal-worthy lol. Like leftover cake...7

08/31 - 123.4 :: was very active and unintentially ate far lower than my calorie limit because of being busy through out the day. Made healthy choices. Last round was slow progress. This is a kicker to start with.
09/01 - 124.4 :: last drop was surprising, seems numbers evened out. Over calorie limit by < 100 cals. Not very active. Ate healthy.
09/02 - 124.4 :: ate a bit higher than calorie limit, <50 cals. Decently active. Ate healthy. Breakfast choice of Sago was very calorific, be cautious next time.

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.

GOALS
Halfway GW: 140.4 (-17.4) <<achieved!>>
UGW: 123
GW this round: 128.2-129.2 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
08/31 128.4 I'm under a lot of stress and not feeling well. Feeling highly ambivalent about my journey, which is scary. This is what happens to people in maintenance if they're not careful! I'm close enough to goal that I'm slipping in my hard-earned habits simply because I feel mostly good about how I look- tons better, anyway. I need to refocus, come up with some new goals.
09/01 128.4 Going on vacation, and still feeling meh. I should probably take a diet break (did this before by calculating maintenance calories and it worked out well), but... I have a feeling I'm going to come back heavier.
09/02 DNW, on vacation
09/03 130.6 Maybe I needed to go this far- back upward enough (+2.2 lbs and back in the 130s) that I can see the lost progress- in order to get my head back into it. And...THIS is why this challenge works, THIS is why we weigh every day, right, folks? We can catch ourselves mid-fall instead of when we're all the way on the ground, wondering how that 10, 15, 30 lbs creeped up on us. Motivated again!
09/04 128.6 Back into the 120s! Hoping I can keep it here for the rest of the round.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31: 224.0 (-1.6)/18.9 (-0.2). A reward from heaven because I finally went to the gym? I went out to dinner with my wife, and split a sandwich with her. It was relatively healthy, but my willingness to portion control was what made my night a success.
9/1: 225.6 (+1.6)/19.1 (+0.2). I did my best last night with what I could regarding food (quality/quantity), at least as much as I could while out at a restaurant I love. It's likely my previous weigh-in was a slight exaggeration (weighed late) and that it was affected by me working out the night before. I'm going to the gym this morning, and I'm going to try my best to keep things under control today (wife's birthday party). If I have alcohol, it will be in the form of a mixed drink or two (spirit + diet soda). Going to the gym this morning (right now) to try to give myself a little wiggle room tonight. Oh, and to get myself into good habits! :-)
9/2: 225.6 (0.0)/19.1 (0.0). I went to bed late last night and got up late this morning, so this number is potentially a little bit under what it should be. I did pretty well yesterday at my wife's birthday party; I planned out what I was going to eat before I ate it (for the most part). I had one beer, but other than that it was all spirits + diet soda. I couldn't resist a tiny slice of the best carrot cake I have ever had (homemade by my sister-in-law). I also hit the gym before going to the party, which made it twice in three days that I made it there. I think I can sustain three times per week: Friday (with my wife), Sunday, and Tuesday, with basketball starting up this coming Saturday. I'll shoot for three times times at the gym, but I'll feel successful even if I can make it twice per week. Coming out of the weekend (particularly given two celebrations for wife's B-Day) still at my starting weight for the round feels like a pretty significant accomplishment.
9/3: 226.0 (+0.4)/19.1 (0.0). This is probably the right number, and not bad for the weekend I just had. I'm feeling okay right now, but this is going to be a stressful week. Trying to stay focused...
9/4: 226.2 (+0.2)/19.2 (+0.1). Last night (and much of my waking hours) was spent worrying about what was going to happen today (I'll talk about that tomorrow). I am pretty sure that I ate within calories (and according to plan), and I know that my weigh-in does not always reflect my previous day's efforts. Eat that, scale!
