Oct 13 - 72.2/159.1
Oct 14 - 72.2/159.1 scared to hang about on same weight feel like itβs just going to go up suddenly. Will try harder to not eat the junk calories π

Oct 23 - 70.1/154.5 no excercise last two days, only short walks for the dog. Work is crazy! Has been all month I think thatβs the reason for the big losses, nervous energy and stress but itβs just going on too long!
Oct 24 - 70/154.3 full day of expo... was hoping all the walking and talking Iβd be out of 70 π oh well maybe today Iβll do more walking and make the hand shaking more enthusiastic π

Hi all,
I've been lurking on MFP for quite a while but have never participated so this is my first challenge! Looking forward to jump-starting my weight loss with your help! I'm also hoping to overcome my love affair with potato chips this month!
Starting weight 208.8 lbs
Start weight this month 208.8 lbs
Goal weight this month 200.8 lbs
Target goal weight 165lbs
We can do this!
1 Oct - 208.8 So it begins! (GO TEAM!)
2 Oct - 205.2 Ah, the joys of the beginning! (and the end of my TOM) Woot - I'll take it
3 Oct - 204.6 Woot! Headed in the right direction! Packing lunches in the evening seems to be helping. A little apprehensive about the weekend (we'll be out of town) since that is usually when I sabotage my progress. Hmm
4 Oct - 204.2 Good morning! Starting to level out, I think. This is as focused as I've been in a very long time so I am so proud that I've weighed, tracked, and logged for 4 days in a row! Today, I will drink water like it's my job!
5 Oct -203.8 Woot! Looking good!
6 Oct -205.2
7 Oct -206.8
8 Oct -208.2 Oh dear. My first of three weekends out of town this month was a huge challenge! This week I'll be going back to basics: packing lunch, drinking water, 30 mins of exercise. Slow and steady!
9 Oct -207.0 Back to tracking and I drank a TON of water yesterday. Woot! Progress (even if it is just transtional...)
10 Oct -206.8 Drank water yesterday but let myself get a little too hungry and scarfed down too much dinner. Today I brought adequate snacks to work and will do my level best to eat them. Onward!
11 Oct - 207.2 Well, rats - wrong direction. Minor setback! Went over my calorie budget yesterday and I had ham roast for both dinner and lunch...sodium too high, maybe? Still, happy with what Iβve been doing and ready to continue learning to make good choices long term.
12 Oct -207.6 *wince* Iβll keep trying.
13 Oct -206.0 Yay! Happy with that!
14 Oct -205.2 Hmmm. Iβm happy with but suspicious of these weekend numbers. I had a few drinks yesterday and am wondering if Iβm simply dehydrated. Back to regularly scheduled programming this week so weβll see. Iβm going to keep doing what Iβm doing and give healthy choices a real shot for once! Nice to see numbers going the right way, either way
15 Oct -205.2 So far so good
16 Oct - 202.8 What the WHAT?! We'll see if I can keep the momentum! (yesterday was an unusually low calorie day due to being busy...I'll keep doing what I'm doing!
17 Oct -200.8 Well, this feels good but I fully suspect that it might be due to having another unusually low calorie day yesterday from just being busy. I have to remind myself that it's okay to bounce around a bit and when I go above this number that it's not a failure.
18 Oct -200.8
19 Oct -200.0 So close to onederland! Today was my sonβs fifth birthday party! So, while I tried to limit some of the treats I definitely did not have a particularly healthy day. Back on the horse tomorrow!
20 Oct -203.0 Well, that is disappointing but not at all unexpected. Doing way better today and think I have things handled with regard to residual treats from the party! Weβll see what tomorrow looks like. π
21 Oct -202.2 tom Good day, though.
22 Oct -200.8 I'm hoping to make some official (read: sustainable) progress below this number this week! Happy to see it again, though.
23 Oct -198.2 Onederland!
24 Oct -197.8
25 Oct -197.8
26 Oct -out of town
27 Oct -out of town
28 Oct -197.4 This was kind of a nail biter! I really tried to keep things under control when I was gone but sometimes I have better luck than others and I didnβt track so it was hard to tell. So happy to see a loss!
29 Oct -197.2 progress is progress!

(post giving birth in June)
Starting weight this month: 168.1
Goal weight this month: 165.5
(It's going to be a hard month to diet, so I want to be realistic and set myself up for success.)
Target goal weight: 140
July loss: +1
August loss: -2.5
September loss: -3.5
October 1
October 2: 168.3 considering I ate a lot and didn't record for the last two days
October 3: 168.3
October 4: 166.5 wow!
October 5
October 6: was 168 something. I ate a lot on Saturday the 5th. But I was still happy, because a few weeks ago I would have been 171 after a day like that.
I ate better today. Better luck tomorrow!
October 7: 168.3 gotta get back down...
October 8: 166.8
October 9:
October 10: 166.0 (kind of artificial. Didn't really eat much yesterday.)
October 11: 166.4
October 12-15: didn't weigh in. Ate a lot, so expecting a gain. Hoping it will be under 168.5. ;-/
October 16: 168.3
October 17: 166.8 (I am lucky. I haven't been logging since last Friday. I HAVE to get back at logging my food!!!)
October 18: 167.0 (? I logged and stayed under limits. I've got to keep it up and it sure the numbers will go back down a bit.)
October 19-23: didn't weigh
October 24: 168.9 OH NO! I let myself go the last week. HELP! Going to get back to good habits. Drinking water now...
October 25-26: didn't weigh
October 27: 167.7 today I was good (finally!!!) and stayed within my calorie limits. It's so hard to rein myself back in after eating cookies and cookies and cookies... but I have to remind myself that I want to be thinner!
October 28: 166.5 (ate within my limits yesterday, and drank a lot of water.)
October 29: 166.3 (was very careful yesterday- drank water and stayed under calorie limit.)2 -

August: -5.5 lb
September: -3.5 lb
1 Oct- 154.4lb
2 Oct- 155.2lb - Meh, late dinner lastnight and it's TOM. No surprise!
3 Oct- 154.2lb
4 Oct- 154.4lb
5 Oct- no weigh day
6 Oct- no weigh day
7 Oct- 154.2 lb. Feeling good about this number right now. I wasn't super strict over the weekend, I also started a new workout last week so I was expecting to hold onto a little bit of water weight due to that & dinner lastnight was late and salty.... overall. A weekend win! Time to get serious again for the week!!
8 Oct- 154.4 lb - Not sure what this is about. I was good yesterday *shrugs*
9 Oct- 153 lb - WOOT WOOT!!! I had a feeling I was due for a drop! I have been feeling smaller... but the scale was not reflecting it yet.
10 Oct- 153 lb - Excited to see this number again today! It feels more real now
11 Oct- 151.8 lb - OMGOSH!!! I haven't seen the scale dropping like this in MONTHS! At the beginning of this month, I started increasing my daily protien intake to about 100g/day (I looked at my macros and was only getting about 60g/day previously.... YIKES). This is becuase I'm doing an Ab/Squat-30 day challenge and want to make sure my muscles have everything they need to heal. Apparently my body agrees!!!
12 Oct- no weigh day
13 Oct- no weigh day
14 Oct- no weigh day
15 Oct- 153.2 lb - Welp!! Holiday weekend got the best of me! Still not horrible though.
16 Oct- 151.8 lb- There we go! I did good about not snacking on the kid's dinner & goldfish crackers yesterday lol That always seems to help! Back to where I was on Friday! Now lets keep it dropping.
17 Oct- 150.8 lb- Sweeeeeeet. Hit my goal for this month already!! No snacking in the evenings is working wonders.
18 Oct- 150.6 lb- Yes!
19 Oct- no weigh day
20 Oct- no weigh day
21 Oct- 149.6 lb- Into the 140's I go!!!
22 Oct- 151.0 lb- Welp.... that one day in the 140s was cool LOL!! Not sure what this spike is about. Probably hormonal or something cus I ate fine yesterday. I have noticed if I get less sleep, I tend to hold onto a bit more water weight. My 1-1/2 year old kept me up quite a bit lastnight so there's that.
23 Oct- 149.2 lb- That's what I thought!! Back down thank goodness. Got a little bit more sleep lastnight and made sure to drink lots of water.... SO GLAD I didn't break down and have pizza with my coworkers yesterday, I was extremely tempted after that weigh in. But, I knew I needed to give my body a chance to balance out & putting in a bunch of carbs and cheese would NOT have helped!! #NSV
24 Oct- 148.8 lb- Really liking this downward trend!
25 Oct- 148.6 lb- Heck yes! I'm going to try to stay strong this weekend and keep this up!! TOM started... sooooo I'm excpecting some water retention to show on that scale by Monday.
26 Oct- no weigh day
27 Oct- no weigh day
28 Oct- 150.6 lb- YEP!!! Hello water weight!! Damn TOM.
29 Oct- 150 lb- Water weight is coming back off. I did not get good sleep lastnight though. Praying for more restful sleep tonight. It makes all the difference for me emotionally as well as physically! I need a nap! *snooooooze*
October loss so far: - 4.2 lb1 -

Oct 8 - 73/160.8

Oct 10 - 72.7/160.3 early weigh empty stomach
Oct 11 - 73.2/161 early weigh empty Stomach TOM π 3ks 22 min plus wk4day3 over calories π have to ditch coffee

Oct 13 - 72.2/159.1
Oct 14 - 72.2/159.1 scared to hang about on same weight feel like itβs just going to go up suddenly. Will try harder to not eat the junk calories π

Oct 16 - 71.7/158 no excercise yesterday calories good
Oct 17 - 71.6 Calories goodπ€ found out my βcoffeeβ recipe was all wrong so thereβs an extra 100+Cals a day I was eating without realising π hopefully sorting helps the no excercise lately and gives me more budget for real food!!

Oct 22 - 70.0/154.3
Oct 23 - 70.1/154.5 no excercise last two days, only short walks for the dog. Work is crazy! Has been all month I think thatβs the reason for the big losses, nervous energy and stress but itβs just going on too long!
Oct 24 - 70/154.3 full day of expo... was hoping all the walking and talking Iβd be out of 70 π oh well maybe today Iβll do more walking and make the hand shaking more enthusiastic π

(post giving birth in June)
Starting weight this month: 168.1
Goal weight this month: 165.5
(It's going to be a hard month to diet, so I want to be realistic and set myself up for success.)
Target goal weight: 140
July loss: +1
August loss: -2.5
September loss: -3.5
October 1
October 2: 168.3 considering I ate a lot and didn't record for the last two days
October 3: 168.3
October 4: 166.5 wow!
October 5
October 6: was 168 something. I ate a lot on Saturday the 5th. But I was still happy, because a few weeks ago I would have been 171 after a day like that.
I ate better today. Better luck tomorrow!
October 7: 168.3 gotta get back down...
October 8: 166.8
October 9:
October 10: 166.0 (kind of artificial. Didn't really eat much yesterday.)
October 11: 166.4
October 12-15: didn't weigh in. Ate a lot, so expecting a gain. Hoping it will be under 168.5. ;-/
October 16: 168.3
October 17: 166.8 (I am lucky. I haven't been logging since last Friday. I HAVE to get back at logging my food!!!)
October 18: 167.0 (? I logged and stayed under limits. I've got to keep it up and it sure the numbers will go back down a bit.)
October 19-23: didn't weigh
October 24: 168.9 OH NO! I let myself go the last week. HELP! Going to get back to good habits. Drinking water now...
October 25-26: didn't weigh
October 27: 167.7 today I was good (finally!!!) and stayed within my calorie limits. It's so hard to rein myself back in after eating cookies and cookies and cookies... but I have to remind myself that I want to be thinner!
October 28: 166.5 (ate within my limits yesterday, and drank a lot of water.)
October 29: 166.3 (was very careful yesterday- drank water and stayed under calorie limit.)
October 30: 165.4 met my goal! (Hope to keep it.)5 -

1 Oct- 154.4lb
2 Oct- 155.2lb - Meh, late dinner lastnight and it's TOM. No surprise!
3 Oct- 154.2lb
4 Oct- 154.4lb
5 Oct- no weigh day
6 Oct- no weigh day
7 Oct- 154.2 lb. Feeling good about this number right now. I wasn't super strict over the weekend, I also started a new workout last week so I was expecting to hold onto a little bit of water weight due to that & dinner lastnight was late and salty.... overall. A weekend win! Time to get serious again for the week!!
8 Oct- 154.4 lb - Not sure what this is about. I was good yesterday *shrugs*
9 Oct- 153 lb - WOOT WOOT!!! I had a feeling I was due for a drop! I have been feeling smaller... but the scale was not reflecting it yet.
10 Oct- 153 lb - Excited to see this number again today! It feels more real now
11 Oct- 151.8 lb - OMGOSH!!! I haven't seen the scale dropping like this in MONTHS! At the beginning of this month, I started increasing my daily protien intake to about 100g/day (I looked at my macros and was only getting about 60g/day previously.... YIKES). This is becuase I'm doing an Ab/Squat-30 day challenge and want to make sure my muscles have everything they need to heal. Apparently my body agrees!!!
12 Oct- no weigh day
13 Oct- no weigh day
14 Oct- no weigh day
15 Oct- 153.2 lb - Welp!! Holiday weekend got the best of me! Still not horrible though.
16 Oct- 151.8 lb- There we go! I did good about not snacking on the kid's dinner & goldfish crackers yesterday lol That always seems to help! Back to where I was on Friday! Now lets keep it dropping.
17 Oct- 150.8 lb- Sweeeeeeet. Hit my goal for this month already!! No snacking in the evenings is working wonders.
18 Oct- 150.6 lb- Yes!
19 Oct- no weigh day
20 Oct- no weigh day
21 Oct- 149.6 lb- Into the 140's I go!!!
22 Oct- 151.0 lb- Welp.... that one day in the 140s was cool LOL!! Not sure what this spike is about. Probably hormonal or something cus I ate fine yesterday. I have noticed if I get less sleep, I tend to hold onto a bit more water weight. My 1-1/2 year old kept me up quite a bit lastnight so there's that.
23 Oct- 149.2 lb- That's what I thought!! Back down thank goodness. Got a little bit more sleep lastnight and made sure to drink lots of water.... SO GLAD I didn't break down and have pizza with my coworkers yesterday, I was extremely tempted after that weigh in. But, I knew I needed to give my body a chance to balance out & putting in a bunch of carbs and cheese would NOT have helped!! #NSV
24 Oct- 148.8 lb- Really liking this downward trend!
25 Oct- 148.6 lb- Heck yes! I'm going to try to stay strong this weekend and keep this up!! TOM started... sooooo I'm excpecting some water retention to show on that scale by Monday.
26 Oct- no weigh day
27 Oct- no weigh day
28 Oct- 150.6 lb- YEP!!! Hello water weight!! Damn TOM.
29 Oct- 150 lb- Water weight is coming back off. I did not get good sleep lastnight though. Praying for more restful sleep tonight. It makes all the difference for me emotionally as well as physically! I need a nap! *snooooooze*
30 Oct- 148.4 lb- Light dinner and no alcohol lastnight due to my stomach not feeling well. Looks to have worked out well for me! Lol Plus TOM water weigh should be off by now. So this is close to a real number. Tomorrow should be pretty spot on if I hold it together today.
October loss so far: - 6 lb3 -

29 Oct - 142.3 annoyed
30 Oct - 140.7 I have officially lost 2/10 of a pound this month, lol. 1 more day
31 Oct -4 -
Starting weight 325lbs 22nd August 2019
Start weight this month 297.6
Goal weight this month 285
Target goal weight 165lbs possibly less undecided yet!
Sept lost 14.9lbs
Setting a slightly less ambitious goal this month but loving these threads! Let's do this! Happy October all π
1 Oct - 297 Great start! π
2 Oct - 297.4 Not so great but I already know I didn't drink enough water yesterday so I know it'll go again!
3 October 296.3! Yay! Pleased with that and confirms that yesterday was a lack of drinking water!
4 October 295.9 still going in the right direction for now but I think that may change tomorrow!
6 October 294.4 didn't weigh yesterday, was up early to do a major road trip and not awake enough. Happy to see it's still going in the right direction though! π
7 October 294.6 To be expected after having dinner out yesterday and not drinking enough water. Still on track for the 285 by the end of the month I hope!
8 October 293.5 Delighted with this. Takes me out of the 21 stone bracket and pops me into the very top of the 20st bracket. Still too much but all going in the right direction π
9 October 293.8 well it couldn't carry on going down forever! Luckily didn't go up much so I'm happy with that. Onwards and downwards π
10 October 292.3 woohoo! I've done 10% lost now! Only another 148lbs to go! Fingers crossed for another 7.7lbs in the next 21 days!
11 October 292.2 well it's still down a bit π waiting for the TOM increase right now! Corrected above to reflect my October goal as got it wrong yesterday! π
12 October 291.4 woohoo going great guns! I think I might make my goal this month π
13 October 292 had to happen sooner or later and I suspect a Chinese meal yesterday didn't help. Onwards and downwards π
14 October 292.6. Not happy, in fact a bit down even though I know full well I haven't eaten enough to put that much on. It is the dreaded TOM! More gutted to be above my 10% again! Oh well, it'll go again. Today is the last day I'll be this fat.
15 October 292.3 I missed yesterday, struggling with depression at the moment. Nothing that'll stop the lifestyle change but hard to live through.
16 October 290.7. I should be delighted but still struggling with my mood. I can't seem to shake it. Back on the medication for a bit until normal service resumes.
17 October 289.8 Well that's better! Made me smile at least as I wasn't expecting another good loss so soon. Hoping my mood will lift soon too.
18 October 289.2 Still very pleased with this, though still struggling with my mood which I think it down to fat limitations and things I want to do but can't! Onwards and downward to be able to do everything I enjoy doing!
19 October 288.6 Yay! I'm definitely happy with losing half a pound a day at the moment although I know it can't last much longer. 3.6lbs and 12 days to make my October goal of 285. Everything crossed!
20 October 287.9 Woohoo! 2.9lbs to October goal! Everything crossed π
21 October 287.5 just a little drop today but I'll happily take it! 2.5lbs to October goal. Exciting! π
22 October 288.1 bah! Had to happen but doesn't mean I'm happy about it! More exercise needed!
23 October 287.5 whew! Hoping it keeps going down now!
24 October 287.7 bah! Grumpy about this! A week to hit October goal and I'm see-sawing over half a pound. Humph.
25 October 287.2 Finally heading the right way again, and desperately hoping it stays that way. I want to make my October goal and I've only got 6 days to do it!
26 October 285.6 Woohoo! If I can just keep that I'll be happy! Close to goal and praying I don't go up again! Drinking soooooo much water today!
27 October 284.7 Too busy yesterday to post this but was thrilled with this one. Under goal but probably going to seesaw back up as I didn't drink enough due to being in the car all day!
28 October 285.8 Yup! Back up I go! Praying that I go back down before Thursday but I have another long road trip tomorrow and am away from home for the night which means eating out for two days. I will control it though and drink as much as I can! Everything crossed for below goal again by Thursday!
30 October 284.2, thank goodness for that. No weigh in yesterday as did a major road trip and overslept so was running really late. Hoping I stay under until tomorrow so I can say I definitely made goal for this month! Tough as it's been!3 -
Hi all,
I've been lurking on MFP for quite a while but have never participated so this is my first challenge! Looking forward to jump-starting my weight loss with your help! I'm also hoping to overcome my love affair with potato chips this month!
Starting weight 208.8 lbs
Start weight this month 208.8 lbs
Goal weight this month 200.8 lbs
Target goal weight 165lbs
We can do this!
1 Oct - 208.8 So it begins! (GO TEAM!)
2 Oct - 205.2 Ah, the joys of the beginning! (and the end of my TOM) Woot - I'll take it
3 Oct - 204.6 Woot! Headed in the right direction! Packing lunches in the evening seems to be helping. A little apprehensive about the weekend (we'll be out of town) since that is usually when I sabotage my progress. Hmm
4 Oct - 204.2 Good morning! Starting to level out, I think. This is as focused as I've been in a very long time so I am so proud that I've weighed, tracked, and logged for 4 days in a row! Today, I will drink water like it's my job!
5 Oct -203.8 Woot! Looking good!
6 Oct -205.2
7 Oct -206.8
8 Oct -208.2 Oh dear. My first of three weekends out of town this month was a huge challenge! This week I'll be going back to basics: packing lunch, drinking water, 30 mins of exercise. Slow and steady!
9 Oct -207.0 Back to tracking and I drank a TON of water yesterday. Woot! Progress (even if it is just transtional...)
10 Oct -206.8 Drank water yesterday but let myself get a little too hungry and scarfed down too much dinner. Today I brought adequate snacks to work and will do my level best to eat them. Onward!
11 Oct - 207.2 Well, rats - wrong direction. Minor setback! Went over my calorie budget yesterday and I had ham roast for both dinner and lunch...sodium too high, maybe? Still, happy with what Iβve been doing and ready to continue learning to make good choices long term.
12 Oct -207.6 *wince* Iβll keep trying.
13 Oct -206.0 Yay! Happy with that!
14 Oct -205.2 Hmmm. Iβm happy with but suspicious of these weekend numbers. I had a few drinks yesterday and am wondering if Iβm simply dehydrated. Back to regularly scheduled programming this week so weβll see. Iβm going to keep doing what Iβm doing and give healthy choices a real shot for once! Nice to see numbers going the right way, either way
15 Oct -205.2 So far so good
16 Oct - 202.8 What the WHAT?! We'll see if I can keep the momentum! (yesterday was an unusually low calorie day due to being busy...I'll keep doing what I'm doing!
17 Oct -200.8 Well, this feels good but I fully suspect that it might be due to having another unusually low calorie day yesterday from just being busy. I have to remind myself that it's okay to bounce around a bit and when I go above this number that it's not a failure.
18 Oct -200.8
19 Oct -200.0 So close to onederland! Today was my sonβs fifth birthday party! So, while I tried to limit some of the treats I definitely did not have a particularly healthy day. Back on the horse tomorrow!
20 Oct -203.0 Well, that is disappointing but not at all unexpected. Doing way better today and think I have things handled with regard to residual treats from the party! Weβll see what tomorrow looks like. π
21 Oct -202.2 tom Good day, though.
22 Oct -200.8 I'm hoping to make some official (read: sustainable) progress below this number this week! Happy to see it again, though.
23 Oct -198.2 Onederland!
24 Oct -197.8
25 Oct -197.8
26 Oct -out of town
27 Oct -out of town
28 Oct -197.4 This was kind of a nail biter! I really tried to keep things under control when I was gone but sometimes I have better luck than others and I didnβt track so it was hard to tell. So happy to see a loss!
29 Oct -197.2 progress is progress!
30 Oct -195.6 I am utterly delighted! Things are going well! Feeling great! π

Oct 8 - 73/160.8
Oct 9 - 73.4/161.8 Very late. I am weighing at such random times. Calories are ok, excercise is going good
Oct 10 - 72.7/160.3 early weigh empty stomach
Oct 11 - 73.2/161 early weigh empty Stomach TOM π 3ks 22 min plus wk4day3 over calories π have to ditch coffee
Oct 12 - 72.2/159.1 Early empty weigh 4ks 30minapprox HUNGRY calories ok
Oct 13 - 72.2/159.1
Oct 14 - 72.2/159.1 scared to hang about on same weight feel like itβs just going to go up suddenly. Will try harder to not eat the junk calories π
Oct 15 - 71.9/158.5 phew hopefully down tomorrow and not a trick. Calories good yesterday and 4K run
Oct 16 - 71.7/158 no excercise yesterday calories good
Oct 17 - 71.6 Calories goodπ€ found out my βcoffeeβ recipe was all wrong so thereβs an extra 100+Cals a day I was eating without realising π hopefully sorting helps the no excercise lately and gives me more budget for real food!!

Oct 22 - 70.0/154.3
Oct 23 - 70.1/154.5 no excercise last two days, only short walks for the dog. Work is crazy! Has been all month I think thatβs the reason for the big losses, nervous energy and stress but itβs just going on too long!
Oct 24 - 70/154.3 full day of expo... was hoping all the walking and talking Iβd be out of 70 π oh well maybe today Iβll do more walking and make the hand shaking more enthusiastic π
Oct 25 - 70

Oct 27 -
Oct 28 - 70.7 Too much drinking tried to eat my hangover away π I suspect it will be even more tomorrow
Oct 29 - 70/154.3 It would be nice to finish the month under 70... will wait and see
