Day | Weight | Delta | Steps | Log | Comments
11/19 | 134.1 | 0.3kg gain | 6,494 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Ate far too much yesterday, including for dinner, so I'm not surprised by this gain. Though I did get my steps in and met my movement goal (by walking in place in my kitchen last night!) so taking some positives out of that. Drank loads of water but still feel a bit dehydrated so I'll keep that up today as well. Better food choices planned for today to get me back on track.
11/20 | 134.1 | No change | 6,766 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Yesterday was a good day. I drank loads of water, closed all my Apple watch rings and even managed a little bit of jogging amongst my walking (this is a lot of weight to run with, so I'm happy I could do a minute or two at a time). I did a little bit of yoga last night which felt great and really opened up my hips (one problem area). I'm still working out what fluctuations are normal for me so seeing no change on the scale is fine. I'm also still working out how many calories I should be eating so at this point I'm thinking I need to reduce it some.
11/21 | 134.6kg | +0.1kg | 6,045 steps ✅ | Food Diary ❌ | Busy day at work so didn’t get any exercise in.
11/22 | 134.5kg | -0.1kg | 4,695 steps ❌ | Food Diary ❌ | Day off from work, took baby to the pool for the first time (he hated it!) so was a bit more active than my steps showed.
11/23 | 134.5kg | No change | 4,943 steps ❌ | Food Diary ❌ | Took baby to the pool again this morning, so again I was a little more active. But still didn’t do any exercise to speak of! Had visitors and drank a bit too. Had far too much sugar!!
11/24 |DNW
11/25 | 134.7kg | +0.2kg | 7,319 steps ✅ | Food Diary ❌ | Still had visitors yesterday, so didn't eat well and drank too much! Back on the bandwagon today, and I'm lowering my daily calorie goal so hopefully I can stick to that & keep things moving in the right direction!
11/26 |134.7kg | No change | 7,314 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | I always seem to do better at the beginning of a week but fall apart by the end. I am just so tired all the time. I need to get better sleep, and more sleep! That's probably the catch-cry of all mums with young bubs, but I don't even have that excuse - mine sleeps through the night so it's my own fault that I don't get enough sleep! I need to get to bed earlier. Did ok on calories yesterday, despite having some surprise visitors and a couple of beers.
11/27 | 134.4kg | -0.3kg | 6,971 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Definitely ate my emotions last night, and only had 4.5 hours of sleep in total (which was very broken up). It was hubby's last day of work yesterday before he becomes a stay-at-home-dad to our almost 1-year old. Part of me is very excited and happy to have him out of that toxic workplace, but I'm also anxious about our finances with one income, and I suppose somewhat jealous that it's not me that can stay at home. I love my job, but given a choice I wouldn't be here (but since I earn more than hubby, it makes more sense this way). He went out with his workmates last night, which had me worried about him being hungover today and looking after the little one. I have to work, so he'll just have to suck it up. At least the scale moved in the right direction, though I'm not sure why!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 130.4, today’s my birthday and I have a lot of events this week (Some celebratory and some business related) so hoping can continue to build on the momentum of last week, but set a cautious goal for the week.
11/20 129.9, thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! I didn’t indulge too much yesterday but going to a Mexican restaurant tonight so will have some chips, guacamole and a margarita to celebrate!
11/21 130.0, back to the gym today but going to start slow since it’s been a few days without going and do 30 minutes. Going to an opera tonight so cheese platter and a glass of champagne for dinner
11/22 129.8, first night in a while that I don’t have anything to do so will be watching hallmark movies with the dog. I have some chicken and pineapple salsa so will make a rice bowl for dinner.
11/23 130.6
11/24 129.8
11/25 129.8, lunch and dinner prepped from yesterday. Gym for an hour and household errands are on the agenda so when I start cooking on Wednesday I’m set up in a good position. I’m making 3 dishes for my family’s thanksgiving dinner, which aren’t hard but I tend to not time things super well so really going to try to be organized this year.
11/26 129.8, busy day and won’t be able to go the gym/ lunch provided by work so it’s not the healthiest but these days happen. Going to Lower my expectations for the next month to 1-2 lbs of weight loss. I started mfp on 12/1/18 (was so strict last year that may take it a bit easier this year to also enjoy the season)

11/19 …..185.8 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1004 Calories In / 2780 Calories Out. 40 Net Carbs. 21,201 Total Steps & 8.97 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 12 minutes. I walked at 3.25 mph for 97 minutes doing school-hall walking and I walked for 32 minutes at 3.0 mph with a planned walk around my property. Total extra calorie burn 750.
11/20 …..184.6 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1153 Calories In / 2829 Calories Out. 133 Carbs (ouch!). 19,172 Total Steps & 8.11 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours (due to dinner guests) and I slept 4 hours & 25 minutes waking up refreshed. I walked at 3.5 mph for 101 minutes at the school, and I walked 32 minutes at 3.0 at home for a total of 809 extra burned calories.
11/21 …..186.8 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1826 In / 3172 Calories Out. 210 Carbs. 25,480 Total Steps & 10.82 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 2 hours & 3 minutes. I walked for 97 minutes burning 523, I walked for 59 minutes burning 324, I walked for 40 minutes burning 177 and I danced for 19 minutes burning 118. Sample song- “Centerfold” by J. Geils”. Total extra calorie burn 1142.
11/22 …..185.6 ….. I tried to “shake it up” a bit yesterday to speed up my recovery on the scale and it worked. Less planned exercise but I did take one long walk (2 hours). In diet, I ate lower carb and calorie than I have been lately and made each bit count with GOOD HEALTHY choices. Yesterday’s stats: 1030 Calories In / 2926 Calories Out. 21 Net Carbs. 22,028 Total Steps & 9.32 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 7 hours & 49 minutes to make up for the night before. Wonderful! I took a 2 hours walk in the school halls for an extra burn of 699. Have a great weekend everyone!
11/23 …..185.2 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1400 Calories In / 2871 Calories Out. 86 Net Carbs. 22,215 Total Steps & 9.4 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 14 minutes & woke up feeling good. I rigorously cleaned tourist cabins for 23 minutes, walked at the school for 129 minutes at about 3.5 mph and I danced for 27 minutes. Sample song “Stronger” by Kelly Clarkson. Total extra calorie burn was 1078.
11/24 …..185.0 ….. Yay! Another small drop. Yesterday’s stats: 1235 Calories In / 2733 Calories Out. 24 Net Carbs. 17,144 Total Steps & 7.25 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 54 minutes. I rigorously cleaned a tourist cabin for 27 minutes burning 121 cals & I walked for 71 minutes burning 387 cals. Total extra calorie burn 508. More time socializing and less time exercising, but that does a body good too!
11/25 …..183.6 ….. I am just so happy with that today. Pleased that the hard work is catching up to me. Can I get through the next 2 days of travel without too much over-indulgence & self-sabotage? Honestly, I don’t think so, but knowledge is power so that will help. Strategy? Maybe choose one of the days to stay diligent, go bunless etc and allow myself to enjoy the offerings of a big city on the other. My family Thanksgiving dinner is not until Saturday so that will affect the next round, not this one. Yesterday’s stats: 1156 Calories In / 2672 Calories Out. 29 Net Carbs. 15,317 Total Steps & 6.48 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 24 minutes. I walked for 33 minutes burning 184 cals and I did low-impact aerobics for 32 minutes burning 227 cals. Total extra planned calorie burn was 411. This weight gets me just over goal for the round and I’m thrilled. If I could just hold onto it!
11/26 …..184.0 ….. Travel Day. First travel was cancelled, then reinstated with a very late start so I am posting tonight now that I’m home. I’m not sure what happened with the scale this morning. Everything went perfectly yesterday. I stuck strictly to my eating plan & even got in extra exercise & activity. I do admit that I was low on water and sleep (as usual) but otherwise, a perfect day! I guess I’ll call it a normal fluctuation, perhaps from activity. Yesterday’s stats: 1286 Calories In/2800 Calories Out. 33 Net Carbs. 22,170 Total Steps & 9.38 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 25 minutes. I danced for 24 minutes burning 136 cals, I walked for 108 minutes at 3.0 mph burning 582 cals, I walked another 40 minutes burning 195 cals, and I did another dance session for 23 minutes burning 138 cals. Sample song- “You make my dreams come true.” By Hall & Oates. Total extra calorie burn was 1051. I typed my weight in neutral black because I know I did everything right. Travel plans cancelled for tomorrow, thank Goodness. I kept my quantity within reason during today's travel, but my choices were another story! I'm just so glad it won’t be two days in a row!

Round 96 (my 18th)
It’s crunch time for my students, so I’ll be holding extra office hours and workshops to help them get caught up before Thanksgiving break. This round, I really want to push myself to get out and walk, as I could use the mental space as well as the exercise.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 – 176.6 – It’s always nice to see a drop at the start of a round. Tuesday is my busiest day this semester, but a workshop and a last-minute commitment made this an especially tough one. No time to walk, but I met my calorie goals.
11/20 – 176.6 – Took my daughter out to lunch today for a little "mom TLC." She hit a deer on the highway last night and, although she wasn't injured, she was tired and shaken. She's also without a car. No walk and over on salt, sugar, and calories. I won’t be surprised to see a bounce in the next couple of days, but that's okay. Back on track tomorrow.
11/21 – 177.2 – As predicted, there’s that bounce. Small, but motivating. I stayed on track and met my goals today, including the walk. I had to really push myself to go, but the park was lovely in the hour before dusk and before long I could feel the tension dissolve.
11/22 – 177.2 – Rainy day, so I did some household chores before picking my grandsons up from school. Opened a bottle of wine for the grown-ups and made a salad to go with the kids’ choice of take-out for an easy dinner. Bacon pizza and pinot noir put me over my goal (but still under maintenance). With all the holiday prep ahead, it was a relaxing start to a busy weekend.
11/23 – 176.2 – Surprised to see a drop today, but hey, I’ll take it!. Walked in the park with my husband and then we split up the chores. He put the Christmas lights up outside and I got the fun job of cleaning out the fridge and the big freezer in the garage. Watching a whole lot of ice cream melt in the sink was a lesson in how my eating habits have changed – for the better! Now I just have to adjust my shopping habits. Met my calorie goal even with an extra glass of wine and a small piece of chocolate. Overall, another good day, but I'm wiped out! I'll catch up with all your posts tomorrow
11/24 – 176.6 – Trying to avoid putting more stuff in the fridge this week left me with an odd assortment of things to use up, so today’s meals were less well-balanced than I’d have liked. Over on calories, carbs, and salt. Ah, well…at least I stayed under maintenance calories. On the upside, I also made a minimally sweetened four-berry syrup with fruit I’d frozen this summer. It should make a gorgeous brunch cocktail mixed with prosecco next weekend 😊
11/25 – 177.6 – This is certainly a roller coaster round. Hope this is the top of the hill. Met my calorie gal but didn’t have time to walk. Too much to do before Thursday.
11/26 – 176.8 – And we’re headed down again…at least for now. I’d planned to do my final pre-holiday grocery shop after my morning class, but the day was so gorgeous that I headed to the beach for a walk instead. It took a while, but eventually all the stress dropped away, and, although I still have tons to do before my guests arrive on Thursday, I feel calmer and less distracted. Well under my calorie limit today, and banking a little extra for the holiday treats.

Ready for my round 33
OSW 88KG
RSW 59.45 kg (-28.55kg) or {- 62.9lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
11/19 59.95kg.not worried as I usually start the week like this and my body was totally empty after my tummy issues! 😳
11/20 60.15kg and I jumped off quickly before it changed its mind. Was high on calories yesterday but that will probably show up tomorrow. Gym crazy busy this morning.
11/21 60.75kg deserved and expected as calories at the high end. Need to get a handle on after work before dinner snacking which is a new issue this month!
11/22 60.15kg and a killer session in the gym. So ready for the weekend
11/23 60.3kg....scale couldn't choose between 60.15 and 60.45 so I split the difference.
11/24 60.15 kg which still leaves me up for the round so far and no real change since this time in October. So looking at the NSV.- since I started in January I have lost 8 inches from my chest (still a D-cup😉), 9.5 from both my waist and hips, and 5.5 from each thigh! I started out a size 18 and now wear a size 12 (UK size which is 38 in Euro and 8 in US) and sometimes a 10. 6 weeks until the end of the year and only 2 kg to get off...
11/25 61.25kg after a revolting eating day yesterday with massive overdose of calories for no reason. It will go up for a few days so I need to focus on getting back under for Sunday my weigh in day. Going back to basic keto and no snacks. Gym done already today.
11/26 60.75kg. Was perfect on calories and macros yesterday and no snacking at all. Going to do the same today.
11/27 61.75kg was going for a loss after another good day. It will come. The gym was conquered!

Hi. My name is Trina.
This 10 days may well be a bit of a mess. We are going to a new restaurant for dinner tonight to celebrate my husband's birthday and my start of chemo tomorrow! Chemo starts tomorrow and could lead to loss of appetite and/or comfort eating and I think they may give me some steroids, so that would also complicate matters! I'm still trying to get down to 128, before officially starting to maintain, but mostly want to get and stay under 130.

11/19 132.5 Hmm. Maybe TMI
11/20 136.5 Although we went out for dinner last night for my husbands birthday, I would say this weight was 90% stress and 10% calories! Today was the first day of chemo
11/21 136 This weight is chemo bloat. The IV did me in!
11/22 132.5 Glad to see my assessment of chemo bloat and stress were probably correct! I've been weighing for the last 3 days, although I just got around to reading and posting. I love you guys!
11/23 131 This looks more like it!
11/24 130.5 Glad to be back where I was hanging a week ago. I want to be careful to eat enough with chemo...but I have no intention of gaining!! I'm feeling pretty good, but off just enough to feel intimidated by 11 weeks until treatment is over!
11/25 130.5 Prepped the house for the inlaws yesterday, but didn't do much else.
11/26 131.5 Out to lunch yesterday. I felt really bloated this morning. I'm blaming the bloat! And the fact that like @quiltingjaine I succumbed to the sweet potato fries!

@IsMollyReallyHungry – I really feel for you, my Dad is in a care home & I have 5 siblings, one has even made the decision not to see Dad again, the others rarely visit him, mostly only when there is a crisis in his condition. I go very regularly – I don't ask them to go that often, but once a week would be nice for him!! It hurts me that my own family can be like this, but you can't choose your family and their actions. As you say it will be on their concious when the end comes and those that do their best for their Dad can hold their head up high and know that they have done their very best.
I am so proud of the way you have handled this Molly, and you should be too, you are showing that you are becoming in control of your actions and that food is no longer controlling you. Use this anger positively to help you be even more determined to stay on track, keep strong, remember your MFP friends are also a very supportive family, comforting hugs and support to you, keep up the very good work in all ways xx.7 -
JJUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 96 (round 28 for me ) I'm in for another round, can't believe how many I've completed already! I need to continue losing my cheeky pre-Brexit weeks holiday gain. Christmas and the celebration season is looming and I'd like to get down to 131 before then; must really dig in!
Female age 61 5' 4”
Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !
Goal ain to get back to good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink and keep walking.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 134.4 – 11.9 miles walked yesterday, all macros in green.
11/20 133.4 – yeay!!! happy dance, at least for now !! 12.27 miles walked yesterday, I really need to keep my mileage in double figures as many days as possible to make by year total of 3300 miles which I have done the last two years. My daily average so far this year is down – all due to outside influences, weather, my elderly father and his maiden aunt both had several weeks in hospital and due to their dementia need a relative with them almost all their waking hours, oh and did I mention the weather? So much rain this year for days at a time . I should not complain, I really feel for those people that are flooded out in their homes, such a dreadful situation. Still life happens and I'm trying to play catch up. All macros well in green
11/21 133.8 – 12.23 miles walked day yesterday. All macros well in green.
11/22 134.4 – yoyo!! Only 3.29 miles walked yesterday, mostly chasing my 19 month old DGS around (Granny day!).
11/23 134.4 – 9.77 miles walked yesterday, all macros well in green, scale will eventually catch up on good habits!
11/24 134 – 10.67 miles walked yesterday, carbs over, but calories well under. My DH has told me I need to get out of my OCD for walking, but it's easy for him his metabolism isn't like mine – I need to keep the furnace burning or the weight just goes back on and I don't want to have to starve/deprive myself of what I like to eat to keep my weight down. Don't get me wrong he is really supportive and loves me however I am, he can also see all the benefits of me losing weight and more especially that I am a happier person not only with myself but in life as a whole.
11/25 134 – 5.78 miles walked yesterday, calories just within limit, carbs slightly over – roast Sunday lunch with DSs!
11/26 133.6 – 9.87 miles walked yesterday. ALL macros well in green, feeling on top of the game at the moment and good.
11/27 133.6 – 9.6 miles walked yesterday. Pleased I stayed at this weight as although calories were well in green, carbs & fat very slightly over, I had bacon on my panini which normally sends me on a spike due to the salt; I hope to maintain this number for the last weigh in of the round!

@TwistedSassette – it is so hard to leave your little one in the hands of someone else, even when you love and trust that person. When my children were little I too was the main bread winner; I was lucky to be able to have my lovely Mom have them whilst myself & DH worked. They loved her and were very close to her, but I really wanted to be at home with them. They have both grown up to be very well rounded independent individuals that I am so proud of.
Try to be positive and make the time that you are with them quality time – put your phone/tablet etc away, catch up on them after their bedtime, at least Daddy is able to provide the childcare rather than a nursery/childminder (not that there is a problem with either of those!).

Goals
1 - Track my calories daily
2 - Run (or gym) 5x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4.- Stay on current weight or less
Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:
11/19 152.8 (-1.6) 1194 cal, 4310 steps, very surprised by this drop but who am I to complain I did feel like doing a happy dance this morning when I saw the scales as it's the first time in 10 years that I've seen 152.x which is under 70kg!! 😉 On a different subject,I’m painting my living room at home, which isn’t the best of ideas in winter, but it’s keeping me active and stopping me from snacking in the evenings! Today I’m going to the gym at lunch time and painting the 2nd layer on the ceiling this evening. Food is generally on track and I've downloaded an app to remind me to drink more water.
11/20 153.4 (+0.6) 1268 cal, 14.283 steps, 3.85 km run. A good day all over yesterday. A slight gain today but not too worried. I spent a good month oscillating between 154.x and 153.x so I’m hoping now that it’ll be between 153 and 152 😉 Nothing special planned today but the usual and painting this evening.
11/21 153.4 (0.0) Status quo, food was on target but I didn’t do any major activity than paint my living room after work in the evening! I’m going to the gym for a short workout during my lunch hour, tonight more painting and that’s about I !
11/22 152.2 (-1.2) way over on calories, 10013 steps, 3km run. Great loss but I think it’s a fluke and I’m pretty sure it’ll be up tomorrow. I had cake yesterday and some chocolates so it’s bound to go up lol Yesterday evening I went for a quick run and then continued painting the living room till 10pm. I’m hurting all over I think it’s due to the painting not the run lol I should be finished by tomorrow, I've had enough of painting now
Then I have the weekend to clean and put everything back in place. I’m going out tonight so that’ll be hard, I think I’ll plan a good dinner so I’m not hungry. It’s a board games evening which is normally chips and beer, I’ll have to bring some healthy options but it’ll be hard to resist!
11/23 DNW
11/24 155.6 (+3.4)
11/25 154.4 (-1.2) so the weekend was a total wipe-out, I visibly did too much these last couple of weeks and I was sick all weekend with an arthritis flare and ended up eating emergency rations from the freezer as my hands were so painful (pizzas and frozen tv dinners). I think I need to get some healthier emergency rations in my freezer for the next flare. Still hurting all over today but at least not bedridden, however I'm going to have to skip any exercise till all the swelling goes down. Also going to try and be extra careful this week as we're going to visit family in Switzerland on Thursday for a long weekend, I know the food there is not exactly diet friendly.
11/26 154.4 Status quo, I was under calories but with no exercise I think I'm stuck here for a while. If I manage to stay around this weight till the New Year I'll be happy tbh.
11/27 153.0 (-1.4) Very surprised at this loss but of course I'm not going to complain, however I wouldn't be surprised if it went back up tomorrow. I was on track with calories and drank more water than usual (1.6l which is enormous for me lol), also I didn't snack between meals (normally I have fruit between meals), I'll try and copy that trend today to see if it works or if it was just a fluke. As I can't run for the moment I tried a Pilates introduction app this morning, it's got a 15 day trial so I'll see how it goes for the next two weeks before signing up for the month

I have set myself a new goal for 2019 and a new UGW.
Things are looking good for my revised 2019 goal. Happy Scale has shown a steady downward trend since the end of July, despite having one or two lapses last round.

24/11: 149.8: Goals 🌻 😱 I did not expect this. I’m sure it’ll jump back up tomorrow!!!
25/11: 150.1: Goals 🌻 Not too bad. Just a normal daily fluctuation that will go as quickly as,it came 🤞🏻
26/10: 152.6: Goals 🌻 This week I am getting back to some serious strength training. I am feeling the burn, and I suspect that the weight gain is mostly water retention from the extra working out. It isn't always about the scale number. Muscle toning has an inevitable effect, as denser muscle replaces fat cells. However, the resulting loss of size is the compensation. And staying around the lower 150s will suffice for now. It's a great improvement from the 170s I was at at the end of July. 3 more rounds will see us almost to the new year. Let's see what we can do by then!

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Ultimate Goal- Maintain 130-135
Goal for this round is to get my average down by any number. I’m working on building lean muscle while blasting fat, so my scale isn’t moving much right now. But one of these days it’s gonna do a dive.

11/19 - 213
11/20 - 212.3 I'm in Australia so it's night time here. I had a good, healthy day although I was at work and I always eat less at work.
11/21 - 209.4 I won't do a Happy Dance just yet. My weight has a habit of messing with me.
11/22 - 209.2 I was pleased enough with the scales that I willingly spent the whole day cleaning. Then we had (homemade) pizza for dinner. I know...it was not a good idea. I chose mushroom, capsicum, sundried tomato, basil and chilli. I stayed away from the, very tempting, bacon and pepperoni that my kids added. I also went really light on the cheese. Hopefully I won't have huge regrets tomorrow
11/23 - 208.6 Very happy. I had a healthy eating day but I need to drink more water.
11/24 - 208.1 Drank losts of water today. Lucky it was Sunday because I was back and forth to the toilet. Not sure that I can do the same at work.
11/25 - 208 Not much difference but still heading in the direction I need to be going.
11/26 - 208.2
11/27 - 208 Felt really sick yesterday so I weighed but didn't log on. Drank lots of water and had a restful day. I'm hoping to end strong tomorrow, but either way I'm already happy with my progress.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 123 Happy with today’s weight, had a great day both yesterday and today.
11/20 123.2 It’s always hard to see the scale go up even a little bit. I had a big drop of weight the day prior so overall I am going down.
11/21 122.4 Happy!
11/22 122.4 Same as yesterday. I’ll take it. Ate a little over today. I just sort of ate “normally” and took a break from counting calories starting around 1 pm. Not good! Getting back with it tomorrow! 😀 Persistence is key!
11/23 123.8 Bummer, but I deserve it after yesterday. Back on track today!
11/24 123.8 I had a good day yesterday but still the same weight. My period is due soon and I typically have trouble losing this time of the month. Will stay strong and hope to see it go back down soon.
11/25 123.4 Happy with today’s weigh in.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 177.2lbs! Holy hell - this has GOT to be from eating out 4 days in a row, even if I am trying to make good choices. I'm sure I've had more sodium in the last week than in the prior month. Also, very little sleep these last days: 4h13m/58. This is not a great start to the new round, but better than ending it like this!
11/20 177.2lbs 6h16m/80 - training this morning... I am not letting this get in my head.
11/21 176.3lbs 6h33m/77 - it may not be a whoosh, but at least it's coming off. Good lesson to learn early on in my gym challenge... severely limit restaurant meals. NSVs help, too... a pair of workout capris are loose now - like, I can't wear them for cardio loose, or I'll lose them. 😉
11/22 176.8lbs 6h47m/82 - frustrated and upset. Will talk to my trainer, maybe cut my calories. B is not a happy camper right now.
11/23 176.8lbs 8h2m/91 - I want to cry. Or scream.
11/24 179.0lbs 6h37m/75 F me.

Goals: stay away from sugar. Stay close to the green zone. Appreciate any loss.
11/19 134: neighbor brought freshly baked bread after dinner. So I ate some and don't regret it. But I did go up to maintenance and ate back all my exercise calories for the day. Today I better not.
11/20 133.6: added 5 mins to elliptical! I think I need to have less calories early in the day so I can eat a proper dinner, otherwise it's extremely hard to stay within my 1200 and feel sane.
11/23: 134.4 I don't know what's going on. Actually, I do know. It started with the pasta on Thursday, which was delicious. Then yesterday, I ate within reason but basically I'm eating at maintenance. Somehow I have to cut the dessert in the evening. until that point I'm fine and then I go over.
It helps to see the reminder "don't stay away. It's a journey, and we're not here to judge but to support", so I'm just repeating it if someone else feels like me this morning.
Today I will take it for today.
11/24: 134.4 friends over for dinner and I felt pressured to have dessert. The good news is that I took a glass of wine and had maybe 1 oz but nobody noticed.
11/25: 133.2 was really careful the last two days. Yesterday i was at a friend's for lunch and asked to serve myself instead of her serving me, so loaded up on the veggies and salad rather than the carbs. And ate only half the dessert. The big victory was having toast for dinner instead of what I cooked for the family because that would have been very high calorie meal. That helped me stay in the green. Let me try and do this again today.
11/26: 134.6 I didn't do it again. I ate a lot of cheese for dinner. That was silly.
11/27: 134.4 stayed very close to green. My husband says "what goes up must come down" so I'm listening to this 😆 I didn't exercise because of the schedule. I could have worked it in but felt bored. I probably would not have been bored if I just went! Today I have my meals planned and will be cooking this evening in prep for tomorrow.11 -
Round 96
As 2019 winds down my goal wt for Jan 1st is 262 which would give me a loss for the year of 15 lbs. I think that will put me in a good spot heading in to 2020. I will be 55 in a couple of weeks and it would be awesome to hit my goal wt this year and finally have a handle on this weight thing. A pound a week in 2020 will put me there. Good luck everyone and have a great round.
