    Starting weight 93.6kg
    Goal weight is 85kg, my previous lowest was 86.5kg, but I let things slip a bit.
    Goal weight this month anything <90kg. This is achievable!

    1 Sept - 93.6kg
    2 Sept - 93.6kg
    3 Sept - 92.4kg - Hey, I'm no longer obese...I can quit now.
    4 Sept - 91.8kg - Yesterday 1.25km (morning) swim plus 5km run (evening).
    5 Sept - 92.8kg - OK, so doing no exercise and having a not so great food day is not going to help this challenge.
    6 Sept - 92.4kg - 3km swim, and 20km cycle yesterday. Looking forward to a run this afternoon / tonight.
    7 Sept - 93.5kg - No exercise yesterday and I'm paying the price for beer and pizza. I messed up big dammit.
    8 Sept - 93.0kg - Not a bad day, given I was out of town again for most of the day, and had dinner out.
    9 Sept - 92.7kg - The rollercoaster continues, but it's a no-travel work week for me I hope.
    10 Sept - 92.7kg - Same same...I can live with that for a day.
    11 Sept - 92.7kg - Same again...maybe tomorrow it'll drop a bit.
    12 Sept - 92.7kg - It's not a typo. Can digital scales get stuck on one reading?
    13 Sept - 93.4kg - Yeah, so that was Friday 13th kicking me first thing in the morning. :# not happy
    14 Sept - 91.9kg - Yay
    15 Sept - 92.6kg - Dinner party last night. :-) But I'm OK with that. I had a busy day preparing (I'm the cook) and I still managed to get in an hour of cycling. I have a big celebration lunch today at church, so that'll be interesting. I'm not going to attempt to log the food as how of earth can you guess finger food....other than it's all high in calories!
    16 Sept - 92.8kg - Seems I wasn't too bad yesterday after all, though secretly I think the 10k run really helped!
    17 Sept - 92.8kg - In reality something has to change. Nothing has in the past 2 weeks. Not Happy.
    18 Sept - 92.4kg - Some right movement at last. I think I have found my enemy...carbs.
    19 Sept - 92.4kg - again
    20 Sept -
    21 Sept -
    22 Sept -
    23 Sept -
    24 Sept - 93.2kg. Sometime I wonder why I bother. This is just a stupid game of yoyo with my weight. I have zero support at home, it is a huge struggle with loads of sugary sweets, chocolate, ice cream, chips and takeaways, yet I know I am ultimately responsible for what goes in my mouth. Feeling down about this at the moment.

    I turn 40 years old this month and I was really wanting to be at 140, but I don't see that happening. Maybe by the end of the month I can hit that goal.

    Starting weight: 178
    Start weight this month: 143.6
    Goal weight this month: 140 and to continue to drop my trend weight
    Target goal weight: 135

    May gained 1.1 pounds (EW - 149.3)
    June lost: 3.4 pounds (EW - 145.9)
    July lost: 2.2 pounds (EW - 143.7)
    August lost: 0.1 pounds (EW - 143.6) complete wash for the month


    1 September - NW - FIL Funeral in Texas 4 days
    2 September - NW - FIL Funeral in Texas 4 days
    3 September - 148.7 we are back and I am up about 5 pounds. I am sure a lot of water weight. Very stressful time.
    4 September 146.9 at least it went down. Did ok yesterday, but my motivation is not great at the moment. I need about a week of sleep right now.
    5 September - 145.1 Still working my way back down
    6 September - 145.1 wish it was a couple of pounds lower, but I'll take it. Haven't tried at all this week. kind of took a diet break!
    7 September - 143.8
    8 September - 144.5 not enough water yesterday. Tons of movement, cleaning, laundry, and tons of errands all day.
    9 September - 147.0 I thought I did better than this yesterday, but I guess not. Maybe I am just holding onto some water weight.
    10 September - 146.5 was expecting to be lower, but ok with this. I am 40 years old today!!!
    11 September - 143.8 not a real number. Drank way to much last night celebrating my bday. Will be back up tomorrow.
    12 September - 145.6 This sounds more like it. As of today I am back on it and looking to finally lose the last 10 pounds. Diet break officially over
    13 September - 143.8 :smile: On track for today so far. Maybe next week I can start seeing some lower numbers
    14 September - 143.2 this is the lowest this month so far. Still have about a pound to go to get back to where I was last month and now it’s the ever so dreaded weekend.
    15 September - 144.8 maybe sodium, but did well yesterday
    16 September -146.3 TOM is showing up today and the chips and dip I decided to snack on all day probably didn't help.
    17 September - 146.3 Day 2 and feel like crap. Major water retention, my ring barely fit this am
    18 September - 145.7 a little movement, not much though. Hormones will be the death of me!
    19 September - 143.7 finally a whoosh. Now maybe I will see a decent drop tomorrow.
    20 September - 142.8 another great drop. I’m back to where I was before month long break. Now to get some progress made and get under 140!
    21 September - 143.7 up a bit today from restaurant sodium. Chinese for a surprise lunch date with the hubby.
    22 September - 143.7 drank to much yesterday so will probably be up tomorrow a bit, did well on food though.
    23 September -145.4 normal Monday fluctuation. Lower than last Monday so I am ok with it.

    I just had to share because today was such a good day and I am so excited! I ate within my calorie goal for the day, I rode my bike to and from work, (5 miles total so not a big deal) but I went for a 3.5 mile walk with my family and did some strength training to boot.
    My diary completion said that, “If everyday were like today...” I’d be almost 15 pounds smaller in 5 weeks. I am sure going to try! Lol!
    To make everything even better, I am still on a no soda streak and I actually have a ton of energy this week which I didn’t anticipate!
    It just goes to show that small steps can make a big difference in how you look and how you feel!

    Hi There!, don't give up, sometimes I feel the same, BUT if I stop trying I end up 15kg later feeling terrible and need MONTHS to get back... So keep trying, no support at home? maybe, but you have 100% support here.

    I just had to share because today was such a good day and I am so excited! I ate within my calorie goal for the day, I rode my bike to and from work, (5 miles total so not a big deal) but I went for a 3.5 mile walk with my family and did some strength training to boot.
    My diary completion said that, “If everyday were like today...” I’d be almost 15 pounds smaller in 5 weeks. I am sure going to try! Lol!
    To make everything even better, I am still on a no soda streak and I actually have a ton of energy this week which I didn’t anticipate!
    It just goes to show that small steps can make a big difference in how you look and how you feel!


    Well done!!! I need a NO soda streak too.

    Target Goal Weight: 135 lbs

    Day/Weight/Comment

    11 September - 166.6 lbs - as someone said earlier, better late than never!
    12 September - 166.0 lbs - Hanging in there. I'm going for my last camping trip of the summer tonight and won't be able to weigh in again until Monday. In the meantime, I am going to do my best and try to see a loss on Monday. Wish me luck! :smiley:
    13 September - No weigh in
    14 September - No weigh in
    15 September - 162.6 lbs - I feel like I am being pranked. How is that even possible? I’ll probably step on the scale tomorrow and it will all be back. 🤣 We will see I guess! I managed to get on the scale a day earlier than I thought! Woohoo!
    16 September - 164.2 lbs (-2.4 lbs) - Hey, I will take it. :)
    17 September - 164.2 lbs - I’m ok with that because I have a serious migraine and haven’t been able to move since yesterday afternoon without wanting to be sick. I’m just going to sleep a lot today.
    18 September - 164.8 lbs - That’s what I get for giving up soda and dealing with migraines for two days.
    19 September - 165.4 lbs - ... ... I am not even sure what to say. I've been so good this week, no extra sugar, no going over my calorie goal... and I'm still up. :'(
    20 September - 164.0 lbs - It’s Friday!!! Hallelujah!
    21 September - 164.0 lbs
    22 September - 164.4 lbs, that extra slice of zucchini bread didn’t do me justice! Lol!
    23 September - 163.8 lbs - we are starting to get somewhere! (That 15 mile bike ride and 3 mile walk helped! LOL) I am also celebrating one week with no soda, no candy, one brownie but nothing else! I am so excited and I think that the headaches and crappy side effects are gone now!
    24 September - 163.2 lbs

    03 Sep- 159 lb. Feeling good!! Might still be holding water weight from TOM.
    04 Sep- 160.5 lb ( + 1.5 lb) ??? Not sure why the spike. I felt pretty dehyrated yesterday so I am making it a point to drink more water today. Maybe that's why. Just have to wait and see!
    05 Sep- 160 lb ( -0.5 lb) TOM weight is tappering off I think.
    06 Sep- no weigh day (NA)
    07 Sep- no weigh day (NA)
    08 Sep- 159.5 lb ( -1 lb) Heck yeah! The scale might not say I have lost anything this month so far.... But I feel like I have! Not sure what the deal is.... oh well. Just gonna keep on it and see what happens
    09 Sep- 159.5 lb ( 0 )
    10 Sept- 159.5 lb ( 0 ) I think my scale has gone on strike lol
    11 Sept- 158 lb ( -1.5 lb) WHOOP THERE IT IS!!!! I had a feeling I was going to see a drop soon *happy dance*
    12 Sept- 158.5 lb ( +0.5lb ) Does "slow and steady wins the race" apply here?? Lol I hope so.
    13 Sept- no weigh day (NA)
    14 Sept- no weigh day (NA)
    15 Sept- no weigh day (NA)

    17 Sept- 159.5 lb ( +1 lb ) FML
    18 Sept- No weigh day (NA

    22 Sept- no weigh day
    23 Sept- 157 lb ( +0.5 lb) Not bad for a Monday!
    24 Sept- 156.5 lb ( -0.5 lb) Up, down, up, down, up, down..... As long as I still end up being down for this month, I'm happy!! Hopefully TOM won't screw it up too bad, cus it's around the same time... of course. I might hold off on my doing my "official" September loss weigh in total until after the TOM water weight comes back off.... super frustrating. I had to do the same thing last month lol Oh well. Life goes on!

    September loss so far: 2.5 lb

    I turn 40 years old this month and I was really wanting to be at 140, but I don't see that happening. Maybe by the end of the month I can hit that goal.

    Starting weight: 178
    Start weight this month: 143.6
    Goal weight this month: 140 and to continue to drop my trend weight
    Target goal weight: 135

    May gained 1.1 pounds (EW - 149.3)
    June lost: 3.4 pounds (EW - 145.9)
    July lost: 2.2 pounds (EW - 143.7)
    August lost: 0.1 pounds (EW - 143.6) complete wash for the month


    1 September - NW - FIL Funeral in Texas 4 days
    2 September - NW - FIL Funeral in Texas 4 days
    3 September - 148.7 we are back and I am up about 5 pounds. I am sure a lot of water weight. Very stressful time.
    4 September 146.9 at least it went down. Did ok yesterday, but my motivation is not great at the moment. I need about a week of sleep right now.
    5 September - 145.1 Still working my way back down
    6 September - 145.1 wish it was a couple of pounds lower, but I'll take it. Haven't tried at all this week. kind of took a diet break!
    7 September - 143.8
    8 September - 144.5 not enough water yesterday. Tons of movement, cleaning, laundry, and tons of errands all day.
    9 September - 147.0 I thought I did better than this yesterday, but I guess not. Maybe I am just holding onto some water weight.
    10 September - 146.5 was expecting to be lower, but ok with this. I am 40 years old today!!!
    11 September - 143.8 not a real number. Drank way to much last night celebrating my bday. Will be back up tomorrow.
    12 September - 145.6 This sounds more like it. As of today I am back on it and looking to finally lose the last 10 pounds. Diet break officially over
    13 September - 143.8 :smile: On track for today so far. Maybe next week I can start seeing some lower numbers
    14 September - 143.2 this is the lowest this month so far. Still have about a pound to go to get back to where I was last month and now it’s the ever so dreaded weekend.
    15 September - 144.8 maybe sodium, but did well yesterday
    16 September -146.3 TOM is showing up today and the chips and dip I decided to snack on all day probably didn't help.
    17 September - 146.3 Day 2 and feel like crap. Major water retention, my ring barely fit this am
    18 September - 145.7 a little movement, not much though. Hormones will be the death of me!
    19 September - 143.7 finally a whoosh. Now maybe I will see a decent drop tomorrow.
    20 September - 142.8 another great drop. I’m back to where I was before month long break. Now to get some progress made and get under 140!
    21 September - 143.7 up a bit today from restaurant sodium. Chinese for a surprise lunch date with the hubby.
    22 September - 143.7 drank to much yesterday so will probably be up tomorrow a bit, did well on food though.
    23 September -145.4 normal Monday fluctuation. Lower than last Monday so I am ok with it.
    24 September - 144.3 and back down we go. Really looking to finish this month strong. It sucks the last day is a Monday this month.

    12 September - 165. A lot of things in my head right now, So I don't have time to worry about calories and for some reason this is working for me. I do IF and my eating window is 2PM to 8PM without worrying WHAT to eat.
    13 September - 164.6 lbs I started to record decimals in my weigh because now that I'm close to my goal is harder to lose 1 pound.

    Start weight this month 218.2
    Goal weight this month 214
    Target goal weight 180, then re-evaluate

    May lost 8 lbs
    June lost 1.6 lbs
    July lost 2 lbs
    August lost 4.2 lbs


    Day/Weight/Comment

    1 September 218.2
    2 September 217.2
    3 September 217.2
    4 September 217.8 (This was frustrating, as the last couple of weeks in August were amazing, and this was my first "up" day in probably 3-4 weeks)
    5 September 217.8
    6 September 217.4
    7 September 216.2 (now that's better!)
    8 September 218.2 (aww...I had ONE fried sandwich and gained TWO pounds???)
    9 September 217 (presumably losing the water weight I gained from all the salt)
    10 September 217 (it's around here that I formally decided to cut calories further. I "shouldn't" need to, as I'm already in what appears to be a 500-750/day deficit, but I hadn't moved much in the prior couple weeks. I could be counting wrong....or overestimating my TDEE, but 500-750 didn't seem to be doing anything. Now I'm at what appears to be 600-850)
    11 September 216 (and it seems to be working, though I hate it)
    12 September 215.6
    13 September 215.2
    14 September 218.6. (This one hurt. I had a normal breakfast, a normal lunch, and instead of a normal dinner, I had a restaurant burger, one beer, a side of tater tots, and a slice of pie. It didn't feel outrageously crazy, and here I am...3.4 pounds heavier. UGH. I'm sure it's water retention, but still.)
    15 September 216.2 (Basically didn't eat anything today, aside from some fruit and a protein bar.)
    16 September 215.6
    17 September 216
    18 September 215.6
    19 September 214.2 (that's better!)

    21 September 213.8
    22 September 213.6
    23 September 213.6
    24 September 214.6 (Sadly, this was to be expected. Rough day at work, apartment provided donuts, and I justified eating the rest of the pierogi in my fridge. A calculated regression, here!)

    I started at 182, got down to 170 and since then I have slowly gained and I have no idea why. 4 weeks now at 172-174. I just cry every day because I’m weighing and logging to the point where it kind of ruins my day having to do it, but still no loss! I didn’t mind when I was seeing results. Someone reached out to me and said eat a little more and see if my system responds better, so I went up by 150 calories per day, but I’ve gained even more
  • Starting weight 324.5 (started on 22nd August 19)
    Start weight this month 312.5
    Goal weight this month 299
    Target goal weight 180 (maybe, that's subject to change as I haven't given much thought to where I want to be ultimately, just the little targets along the way!)

    1 September - 312.5 exceeded 10k steps today for the first time since I started!

    2 September 311.4

    3 September 311.7 feeling rubbish today. Think I have a nasty cold coming! Only just met my step goal too.

    4 September 310.9 yay for going in the right direction again!

    5 September 310.1 small loss but still good for THAT time of month! Step goal met and exceeded too! I will get less fat!

    6 September 308.8 delighted with that and I think it's down to the extra walking. There has to be some bonus to heaving all this weight around, and that's it, walking burns the calories!

    7 September 307.9 over the moon to read this on the scale this morning and actually did a little victory dance when the scale updated my status here. I'm in the next stones bracket! Started in 23 now (just) in 21 😁😁😁😁 stupidly delighted and also scared of wrecking it!

    8 September 308.1 lol, couldn’t really expect it to go down again today even though I’ve stuck to my plan. More steps today to see if it helps tomorrow 😊

    9 September 309.5 😔 so I knew it couldn't constantly go down but guessing that's my TOM water weight hitting. Logically I know it'll go off again but gutted that I got into the next stone bracket and am now not! Steps still high yesterday so keeping on going! Guess my body is adjusting to the diet and not losing weight in shock now!

    10 September 308.0 Thank goodness for that! I knew in my head it couldn't be a gain but seeing the numbers go up wasn't nice! Glad they're back down even if not in the bracket yet!

    11 September 308.6 so a short lived thank goodness for that. Ho hum. Tomorrow is another day.

    12 September 308.4 Dare I hope it's going in the right direction? Maybe! 🙄

    13 September 307.9 now have everything crossed that it doesn't go back up! 😂 big grin today though!

    14 September 307.5 heading in the right direction but been out for dinner tonight so who knows what the next few days will bring?

    15 September 305.6!!!!! Ecstatic but waiting for last night's dinner to have an impact. Not that I was silly in what I ate but chips are never good! Neither is a tiny bit of lemon meringue! 🙄😂

    16 September 304.7!!! Even more ecstatic! Finally the TOM water is gone and all my effort is working! I might have an outside chance of hitting my wildly ambitious goal for this month of 299! 😁😁😁😁😁

    17 September 304.8 Still grinning! Struggling with getting my steps in on my work days but doing my best!

    18 September 305.2 can’t always go down lol. Still smiling! Haven’t hit step goal today yet as 5 hours in the car and then 3 in a meeting doesn’t help but I’ll do better tomorrow 😊

    19 September 304.9 Definitely still smiling! Not sure that 299 at the end of September is possible but hanging in there anyway. MFP one month anniversary for me today! Here's to the next months/years etc!

    20 September 304.8 Struggling with plantar fasciitis (severe heel pain) today. It’s been coming for a couple of weeks but I tried to work through it. Big mistake. Desperate to get my steps in but it’s unbelievably painful. Ice is helping and I’ve bought a kit from Amazon. Fingers crossed it helps. Will be delighted if I manage to get down to 300 this month let alone my overly optimistic 299!

    21 September 305.4 Could be the lack of movement yesterday, could be because I didn't drink enough, could be natural fluctuations. Whatever it is I'm sticking with it. The almost permanent icing of my foot seems to be really helping but I'm going to take it easy again today just in case!

    22 September 305.6 heading in the wrong direction again! Hopefully just a fluctuation! I'm not quitting!

    23 September 304.8 thank goodness for that again! Onwards and downwards 😁

    24 September 302.8 WooHoo! Delighted with this one! No idea how I've managed it because I can't walk so much at the moment with the heel pain but thrilled to bits with this. Praying it continues until the end of the month and I get my 299 goal for the month!

    25 September 302.2 woohoo again! If I can just do 3lbs by the end of the week I might make my overly ambitious goal that was just plucked out of thin air! 😂

    I started at 182, got down to 170 and since then I have slowly gained and I have no idea why. 4 weeks now at 172-174. I just cry every day because I’m weighing and logging to the point where it kind of ruins my day having to do it, but still no loss! I didn’t mind when I was seeing results. Someone reached out to me and said eat a little more and see if my system responds better, so I went up by 150 calories per day, but I’ve gained even more

    please keep going. Join us in weighing everyday. Do you use a food scale for all your food
