This past week, I discovered that sodium is not my friend. Lowering my sodium and increasing water had a very good result!!cydneebauman wrote: Β»October week 1

π¬Chocolate: Yes but only 4 little squares of dark chocolate and not a whole bar π₯³
That's great! I was going to suggest going the dark chocolate route. I lost my final 45 lbs by having at least one or two squares of Lindt 90% or 99% dark chocolate daily.
I must try lol.1 -

Track: Yes
Calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes 20 minutes strength, 20 minutes yoga
Comments: I had a whoosh this morning!! The scale has been fluctuating between 139(s) and 141(s) for the past week. This morning, even though I woke up feeling "fat (you know some mornings you wake up and you feel smaller? Well, today wasn't that day), I finally broke through that invisible wall! My weight this morning is 137.8! I hit the 137's!! This is the lowest weight I have been since I was a child!! Probably 9 or 10 years old! Just in time for my race tomorrow! Maybe I'll avoid the scale tomorrow because it will probably go back up to 141. lol
Great job, girl!1 -

Hey all!! Really pumped for this. Normally I weigh in on Mondays but this well I was away until late last night. This week I weighed in this morning but next week I'm back to normal. Looking forward to it as well! Between travel and TOM, this was a rough week.

I keep Quest bars at work for a quick protein snack during the day. They have carbs but are high fiber and high protein

I didn't want to weigh in this morning, but knew I had to for this challenge. I'm glad I did. My one day from purgatory yday could have affected my entire weekend, but weighing today made me realize it's ok. Just get back on it and focus.
Here's to letting go of the negative, focusing on the positive and making intentional positive decisions.
Grateful more than ever for this challenge and accountability.6 -
I'm a bit late because I didn't know how the notications work, first time in a MFP challenge, so this is a little late introduction
My name is Rory Dixon and I am loosing weight for my self, my mother and my girlfriends and our future.
I have always been overweight all my life and now I am on my 15th day streak I feel confident I can finally do this, I am sick and tried literally of making excuses for my self and just get on with it, I want to show my mother who also struggles with weight loss it is possible without restricting and difficult diets.
My mom would be joining me but her phone is too outdated to use mfp.
My current weight at the moment is 18.11 stone and has been for 3 days, which is a relief really because when I started my diet 15 days ago I was loosing a pound a day, and today my jeans fit me which didn't at the start of the year.
I take my daily thigh, waist around my belly button and hip measurements on Friday and weight my self to check in on Monday.
I always like having more friends and feel free to add me.

Made it though 18 miles Sunday morning. So ready for the long runs to taper back in a few weeks, that way I can maybe stop eating so much and fit some more workouts in without all the running soreness. I guess bring on the hoodies for now until I can functionally workout more.2 -

2 part question:

One thing I did well this week was track and monitor my sodium. I never realized how much sodium I ate!!! Yikes! One thing I still want to improve upon us water intake. I drink more than I ever did, but I would like to consistently drink at least 80oz.0 -

Daily Post - Thursday October 3
Track: Yes
Calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes - HIIT & stretching
Comments: HIIT is hard but gets my heart pounding quickly! I have been struggling a lot with sticking to the calorie goal that MFP gave me. When I looked at the data collected from my Apple Watch, I can see why, so I revised my calorie goals based on my Apple Watch calorie burn stats - I am now aiming to eat at my 'passive' burn rate. Any active calories should bring me weight loss ( I won't be aiming to eat back any calories burned through exercise).0 -

2 part question:
What is one thing you did well this week and one thing you could do better for next week?
I have logged all my calories so far this week, which is something that I typically struggle with. But I have eaten a lot of junk food this week and blown my calorie budget almost every day - I want to do better with this next week!0 -
