Round 94
Please join us! Starting on 10/30 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 94
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

Round 94:
Female, 57 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 105 - 110.0 lbs or BF 23-25%
STG: 110 (next milestone)
Goals for 10 day Challenge: reach 114 - upper end of ideal weight for my height.
Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 114.8, %BF 27.5 Reached my STG of last round now! (be below 115) but better late than never! Expect wt may go back up tomorrow and I’ll bounce around here, but just might be possible to reach the upper end of the ideal weight range for my height this round. In the meantime goal is to keep working on increasing muscle mass (seems to be working according to scale) with the increase in calories and burning fat. Early morning spin class for cardio today!
10/31 116.4, BF% 27.9 OK maybe I should not predict that it will go up cuz it seems to come true -lol ! Pasta for dinner last night so expect a lot of the gain is water with the carbs/glycogen storage (and food retention) - but was refueled for step aerobics this am!!! Switched to using two risers to increase HR during class so got a high intensity workout in. Strength training with trainer afterwards - we are on to the Stage 4 workouts from Strong (Schuler & Cosgrove of NROLW) for the next month. Halloween get together with neighbors tonight (pizza) so have pre-logged and should be in my macros (higher calories on weight day help!) Hoping that the strong storms (under tornado watch) that are predicted hold off until after trick-or-treating! Even with the ups/downs after the last two weeks of higher calories, Happy Scale thinks my current loss rate is 0.47 lbs/week so looks like that is in line with my estimated TDEE and calorie targets so trend is more important than the noisy day to day measurements!
11/01 115.2 BF% 27.6 yeah! Heading back in the right direction! (even with pizza & wine last night- all in moderation)
11/02 114.4 BF% 27.5 yeah!!! Back below weight at start of the round! Step aerobics in the morning and then went back in the late afternoon for spin !
11/03 114.4 BF% 27.4 Holding steady! Did Xtrain class in the morning and increased power on bike to 213 watts (PWR 4.1). Did strength workout in afternoon Stage 4B from “Strong” - arms are still a bit sore as are glutes from deadlifts but should sleep well tonight!
11/04 114.0 BF% 27.3 Thrilled that I made round goal weight (the upper end of the ideal weight range for my height) even if it does bounce back up! Still want to reduce BF more, so will continue cutting and trying to conserve muscle to reduce BF to get to next STG of 110 (probably sometime in December). At that point I’ll reassess whether to work on body recomp or drop to 105 (current LTG). Going forward focus will be more on BF than scale. Rest day for weights, but did “easy” spin class tonight.
11/05 113.8, BF% 27.3 Surprised with this drop, but will take it! Wondering if the higher calories are helping with consistency in drops compared to previous weeks ??? Tuesday is heavy weight/lower rep training, so may have some DOMS tomorrow! Heading back to the gym after work so that I can get my cardio in before dinner (it also seems to help stretch quads after squats!) Also high calorie day (on strength days) so hit 1625 on the nose! Trying a sunbasket meal kit for “Cheesy Fusilli with leeks and wilted greens” tonight - basically mac-n-cheese that will make one of my daughters happy (OK I like mac-n-cheese too :-) but should hit the spot after a long day!
11/06 113.8, BF% 27.3 Held it even with the higher calorie/weight day yesterday!!! And no DOMS either (so far!) Cardio after work (spin class) today. NSV: can wear an old ring that I’ve had since I was a kid; other rings (were on ring fingers) have to move to middle fingers! (though keep forgetting to put them back on after lifting!)
11/07 112.8 BF% 26.9 OK totally unexpected! Calorie burn is pretty consistent for the last several weeks (although heavier weights, which perhaps is not being captured), and have definitely been eating more in the 1500-1600+ calorie range, so the steady drops are welcome! Perhaps needed the increase in calories to fuel muscle growth, which is leading to higher fat loss? Or more stability re water retention. BMR is slowly dropping (watch and scale suggest 1277/1177 respectively , so it is not that I am suddenly burning more. Seems like a violation of CICO, but not going to complain as I am enjoying the increased food! Weights this morning with trainer, and will do some cardio after work.

So I am back for another round. My goals will be the same as last since I didn't make any progress in round 93. I would like to be under 144.0 for every weigh-in and have at least 60% of them be under 142.0. My husband turns 39 on the 7th and our last weigh-in is the day after. We also have to deal with Halloween, so this round may be a little tricky. Although I know I am kind of being selfish, but I really want to get out of the 140's, so I have decided not to pass out candy this year. All 5 of my kids will be out or doing other things, so I am not going to temp myself at all. I guess not having any little kids anymore makes this year a little easier. I do feel guilty about the other neighborhood kids, but I am taking this year off and not bringing bags of candy into the house.
(I only include the last 5 rounds of results)
Round 89: 147.0 - 143.7 Avg 144.99
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 Avg 142.68
Round 91: 140.9 - 143.6 Avg 143.62
Round 92: 143.6 - 141.5 Avg 142.01
Round 93: 141.5 - 142.3 Avg 143.21
10/30 - 140.7 Finally!!!! A new low!!! Now it's only by 2/10 of a pound, but I am taking it and running. Was on track all day yesterday and stuck to my no alcohol. Will do the same today and hope for another, hopefully bigger drop tomorrow.
10/31 - 140.7 same as yesterday. So I am ending October with an entire 2/10 of a pound loss. Not thrilled, but I have to accept it and move on. The good news is my monthly moving average is down 2.2 pounds according to my happy scale. I am pretty much losing about a pound to a pound and a half a month right now. I am at about 22.5 on my BMI chart, so in the healthy range and am ok with how my clothes fit. I think it's just vanity that I want to weigh in the 130's, lol. I don't really think anything is going to change if the scale says 140.7 or 138.7, but it will make me happy, so I will continue working on it. No alcohol again last night and stayed on track food wise. I have only drank 2 days out of the last 10 and that is huge for me, so I am going to continue trying to go that route for a couple more weeks.
11/01 - 141.5 So my husband finally made tenure yesterday and got a really nice raise. We knew he was being re-evaluated, but it was way better than we could have imagined. Plus he got a really nice bonus and we can finally pay some bills off that we have putting off. Having 2 kids in college and another one starting next year is sometimes hard on the wallet, lol. That being said we celebrated last night with a couple of drinks and Chinese food. He wanted to go out, but I made it at home instead. The chicken egg rolls (I only had 1) went into the air fryer, the fried rice was made with low sodium soy sauce (husband could not even tell the difference), and baked some chicken to go with it. I only had 4 oz of Crown and nothing else. I was really good! I don't think I deserve this uptick, but maybe even using the low sodium soy sauce it was more than I should have had. We will see tomorrow. It was a celebration and don't regret the 1 pound at all. TGIF!!!!
11/02 - 139.7 yes, yes, yes!!!! Finally and it’s real, but now here comes the weekend. I always gain during the weekend no matter what. Maybe this will be my motivation to be really good.
11/03 - 140.7 Did some projects around the house all day yesterday and took 3 of the kids for flu shots. Ate under calories, but did have a couple of beers with my hubby while putting together my new hall tree. It came in about 400 pieces, lol and my husband was not happy. It looks amazing though and I love it.
11/04 - 141.5 cleaned house all day Sunday and did about 8 loads of laundry over the weekend. Made banana bread, chocolate banana bread, (did not have any) and burritos for the week for everyone. I only had my 2 meals and both were on track. We had aged steak for dinner and brussel sprouts. I did not have any potatoes, mac and cheese, or bread, but I did have a couple of beers watching the night games with the hubby. I have got to get back to no alcohol. I am so good for a while and then I just start sliding again and of course the Cowboys are playing tonight. I'm not going to lie, being a Cowboys fan causes you to drink sometimes, lol. Oh well, I am doing my best.
11/05 - 139.7 Well, I can say I am pretty consistent this round for sure. Cowboys won and I am sure I am a little dehydrated from the beer, but ate way under calories. So it should even out. Back on no alcohol as of tonight. Would love to see the same pattern to finish out the next 3 days of this round.
11/06 - 140.7 This is the result of the beer from Monday night. I always have an uptick when I over drink 2 days later. Definitely well deserved and will hopefully be back down tomorrow. I have done really well this week, way better than I thought I would. I knew this week was going to be a rough one for me with so much going on. We are having my husband's bday tonight with all the kids at home. Fajitas and pineapple upside down cake are on the menu. I am making extra veggies and will put mine on lettuce instead of tortillas and not have any cake. I should be able to stay on track. Tomorrow is his actual bday and he of course wants to go to is favorite pizza place with some friends and have a couple of beers. So tomorrow will be my true test, which I have been planning for.
11/07 - 140.7 My hubby's bday is today and we are going out to dinner at his favorite pizza place. Hopefully I am not up to much tomorrow to end this round. So far this has been a really consistent and solid round for me. Hopefully a pretty nice whoosh is right around the corner and will lurk it's head out in the next round.

Hi. My name is Trina.
I'm till trying to get down to 128, before officially starting to maintain, but mostly want to stay under 130. I'm happy that my weight is staying level even with adding in the occasional carbs. I love this challenge to keep me on track and keep me grounded in reality! My other goal this 10 days is to regain some arm mobility after my mastectomy.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 129.5 Same as yesterday minus 10 inches of hair...which apparently only weighed 3 oz.
10/31 129.5 -- It finally stopped raining enough to take a late walk yesterday. Today I think I'll need to exercise inside!
11/01 129.5
11/02 ??? Forgot to weigh....I never forget! LOL
11/03 130 Temporary up....Had a beer late and some snacks. And not much in the way of movement yesterday.
11/04 131 Not what I wanted....but temporary! Today I FINALLY got to drive again post surgery. I took advantage of the car to go to the gym and do a strength workout and zumba. Funniest thing....the one thing I couldn't do in zumba was spread and raise my arms and take a deep breath in for warmup and cool down!! That's not supposed to be hard for anyone!
11/05 130 Walked 8 miles today. 3 fast, 5 with friends!
11/06 130 Walked another 8 miles today, 3 before going to meet with the oncology nurse. Kind of bummed to realize hair loss is pretty much guaranteed, although it's somewhat of a relief to know rather than worry about it. Called a friend on the way home and met her for another 5 mile walk. Ate a few fewer leftover Halloween snacks today.
11/07 129.5 That's nice. Didn't do so well eating today, though--not over calories, just over carbs.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 – 180.2 – Happy to see this number again. I guess it’s not a fluke. Super busy day, so I ordered pizza when my older grandkids came over after a local Trunk-or-Treat event. Ate an extra slice, but still stayed under my calorie limit. Baked cupcakes for tomorrow - fortunately, cake is not really my thing – and will post some grades before calling it a night. Only one class tomorrow – woo hoo!
10/31 – 180.2 – Happy Halloween! Had a few small treats today, but didn’t go over my calorie limit. The rain is finally clearing out – looking forward to getting out and walking this weekend.
11/01 – 179.4 – First dip into the 170’s! And it’s another weekend – TGIF!. Nice family dinner with a couple of drinks that brought me up to maintenance calories, but I’m okay with that. I’ve learned that I can make mindful choices to go over sometimes and still keep moving in the right direction. And that’s a bigger win than any number on the scale.
11/02 – 179.8 – Little bounce to start the weekend. Relaxing brunch out with my hubby and takeout Japanese for an easy dinner. Taking the weekend off from counting, weighing, and logging what I eat and drink.
11/03 – 181.2 – And the birthday celebration weekend continues with a lovely party organized by my husband and daughter. Too many yummy things (including lots of my favorites) to count or pass up. Feeling grateful, contented, and a bit full.
11/04 – 180.8 – A productive Monday to follow a fun and relaxing weekend. Got 4 hours of grading done this morning while I ran some laundry through and straightened up around the house. With the time change, the sun was setting by the time I finished up after class. I’ll need to rework my schedule to fit my walking in. Party leftovers for dinner, but calories were good today.
11/05 – 180.0 – No bonfire tonight, but I celebrated turning 60 today with a long walk along the beach and a lunch date with my daughter. A light supper and just a small glass of wine after my evening class kept me on track. Logged and met my calorie goals too! My gift to myself this year is a stronger and healthier me. I think it’s going to be a wonderful year!
11/06 – 179.8 – Back on track and moving in the right direction. All goals met, including the walk!
11/07 – 179.8 – Lunch with my mom and a salon appointment, so no walk or chores, but I kept to my calorie goal. It was really nice to have a rest day before another busy weekend.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 - 67,5 - still TOM. I wonder what my data is going to show in the end, it’s the first time I am tracking everything this well. So I am unbothered by the ups and downs. I feel sore but good. Excited for this new 10 day focus challenge.
10/31 - 66,7 - is this water flushed out post TOM ? Maybe (probably). Data inputted in my spreadsheets and feeling a bit lighter :-). Also took my measurements (twice a month) and got some nice losses there as well.
11/01 - 66,8 - walked a lot and worked out as well. Feeling tired but very good.
11/02 - 66,9 - meh, DOMS I imagine since my calories have not changed one iota in these last couple of days.
11/03 - 66,7 - going down a bit. Still wondering if it’s DOMS.
11/04 - 66,8 - alright, seems like I’m chillin’ over here for a bit. I’m ok with it since I feel leaner, I like how I eat, I have energy and I enjoy my workouts :-) all is good.
11/05 - 66,5 - nice :-) I decided to just spend energy on other activities and not caring about scale weight while it is clearly decreasing. I lifted weights yesterday, it felt goooood.
11/06 - 66,6 - trend is alright. I am seeing (I guess) what I wanted all along, which is eating more and a slower weight loss. This is fine :-)
11/07 - 66,9 - this is water retention I think. As my meals have not changed (well actually did add 100 cals to everyday) and I have been slightly more active than last week. I am feeling a bit queasy as well, so that might be at play. Just gotta ride the wave and wait for trend to go back down.
11/08 - 66,2 - big whoosh. I ate a bit less (in calories but not in weight) yesterday actually so no idea if it’s going to stick. But I have had 4 good rounds so far. Weight bounced a lot this week. But it’s been fun and eye-opening at times.
I REACHED MY GOAL plus a bit extra :-) so I’m very pleased with that.
Hope you all did well and are content with your results :-)6 -
I'm somewhat new to the forums. However, if I understand this right, each round is a month long.
Since it's still early in the month, I'm going to join in. I usually only weigh myself on Mondays, when I weigh myself daily, I get defeated because the loss isn't happening quick enough. But I'm will to try this and see where it goes!

** ROUND 94 **
Round # 23 for me
The next ten days: I am going to focus on doing more intentional exercise (step goal 6500) and be more mindful of when I eat. Make sure I not doing as much emotional eating.
Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 397.0 – I lost 1.6 pounds last round. Finally getting back on track. I am not making any goals, but I do know in 10 days I should lose at least 2 pounds just by focusing on behavior modifications. I didn’t do the whole 10 days last round. But I am not beating myself up at all. I am just going to focus on my behaviors which will get me where I want to be.
10/31 395.6 (-1.4) – Yesterday: 7434 steps, 30 min walking. Did OK eating - no binge or fast foods. We will see how the eating goes today. I did not do the potluck with the department. But I still ate some candy and I brought some Chicago Mix popcorn for me. But I only had a few cups for lunch. No binge thus far. Night is the worse. Tomorrow I go to a special lunch, planning on eating mindfully there. Having grilled chicken since I know they are going to have it and he some veggies. I go to WW on Saturday. Trying to break even - but if I don’t, I am not going to worry about it because I have not been to a meeting in weeks. I am still up 3 pounds from the last time I was there on my scale.
11/01 396.8 (+1.2)
11/02 397.8 (+1.0)
11/03 NWI
11/04 397.2 (-0.6) - Gained over weekend. Sorta back on track today. Surprised by weight loss yesterday. Not sure on that one. I did not reach step goal last 3 days. Super busy though. I don’t think I will get step goal today either. I see my therapist tomorrow. I am down since the last time I saw her. Tomorrow I will know how much. She did not care how much, if I am losing. I got into a big argument with my boss Friday which started weekend off wrong. She was off today. We will see how she is acting tomorrow and if I will be written up or something because she was in a mood Friday and she is power tripping. She did not even say bye to anyone Friday. So she was hot but I know it was just not me. Something else happen and my argument was icing on the cake. Oh well. It is what it is. I don’t want to, but in March of next year, I must think seriously about looking for another job because I can see this is not working. It is not good for me or her. It has been a little over a year since my previous boss retired. Our personalities are not clashing at all.
11/05 397.0 (-0.2) – 4669 steps. Not even close to my 6500-step goal. Eating not the greatest. My boss came in to work today. Was normal like nothing happened Friday. Interesting. We have a P&R on Thursday. Let’s see if she cancels it.
11/06 398.2 (+1.2) 6650 steps yesterday. Overate yesterday. Mini binge or grazing. Back on track today. Some emotional eating involved. Great visit with therapist! I have one more day to see if I can get out of the red zone here this round.
11/07 398.2 (0.0) 5553 steps yesterday.
11/08
Total change this round: (+ 1.2 lbs)
My journey … ("I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!")In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbsMy highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us. :flowerforyou: Jan 3, 2019 SW 373.4 CW 400.4 :flowerforyou:

It just flipped me, I was so shocked, I went totally of the rails, couldn't even tell you what passed through my lips after that, sigh, why ? So today is a new day, I start again, I'm lucky not to be up more, but now 9 days to wearing that dress!
