Fantastic! 11.2 miles walked, a wonderful sunny winter's day out on the trails in the National Forest yesterday. All macros & calories well in green. Happy New Years Eve to all my MFP buddies, hope you have a healthy and enjoyable last day of the year.

Looking back over the last year I didn't quite hit my goal of 3,300 miles walking, but we move on to a New Year and I press on !!

goal: sticking to my plan every day

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29 83.4 kg wasn't hungry until evening, turned out as a OMAD kind of day.

12/30 83.1 kg happy that I seem to get back on track - and the cold is slowly going away too.
Started a food journal and also created related trackers in the bullet journal.

12/31 83,7 kg water weight obviously, I was well under my calories the day before. So it's okay with me. And I went to bed very late which was contributing to the gain probably as well.
---update in the night, New Years Eve:
I got invited to a great dinner in a fancy restaurant, so I restrained myself over the day and enjoyed the great meal in the evening even more. According to the stats I am still within the daily calories limit, even including the planned alcoholic beverages that I will drink in exactly 34 minutes:-)
Not too bad for a special day. Only (small) downside is that I am right now not in ketosis anymore most probably. But it will come back quickly. And maybe the carbs from tonight aren't not so bad for my body after all. As long as it is an exception. I even got in a walk of about an hour today, after a long time without exercise because of the cold (I still have). And I think I have found (finally) a solution for my old problem how to incorporate some traditional meals (high carb) into my eating habits without getting triggered anymore. I will test that idea tomorrow with an old favourite traditional food of mine. We'll see how it goes.
Okay, outside some early birds are starting their fireworks already, time to say the good ol' year goodbye. See you on the other side!
Happy New Year everyone!!

01/01 83,4 kg The idea of incorporating some of the unhealthy carby stuff - but in tiniest amounts - into my diet, worked. I took some precautions though so that I would later not give in an potential blood sugar spike and inhale the whole thing anyway.
I first threw away the bigger part of the unhealthy sugery bun, even poured some dish soap on top so that it was safe in the bin... It worked, there was a little spike but it was manageable with a little willpower. I also cooked another favourite meal, also in a ridiculous small portion. And it worked. I am quite happy about the outcome.
That way I can still enjoy food on the occasional holiday but it doesn't send me down the spiral anymore.
Oh, and I got an 1.5 hours walk in. Sun was shining, it was not to cold but crisp air. Nice. Calories intake was okay as well.

01/02 83,2 kg the occasional walk helps with my weight loss - I should remember this;)

01/03 84,1 kg Ah well, most probably water weight. Yesterday I was over calories and also had more carbs, but nothing too crazy. The body obviously realized that I am not kidding and wanted some calories back...Still I am in a deficit for the last two days.

Just seen this thread and it looks awesome- great to keep me accountable- hopefully. Been on MFP for ages, well always had it in the background. 2019 not been a good year weight wise, I’ve put on a shocking amount of weight after otherwise being a healthy (ish) weight for years. Anyway here goes....

Start Weight- 218.8lb
End of 10 day goal- 214lb
Ultimate Goal Weight- 175lb

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29 218.8lb
12/30 217.2lb 😀 (A good start)
12/31 217.0lb Had a very good ‘leg’ session at the gym yesterday and I’m feeling it this morning in my quads and calves. Back to it today, bench pressing and some HiiT on the stepper planner before the New Years Eve festivities. Takeaway has been suggested by family, so I’m going to let myself have it, but make sure it fits within my calorie goal for the day. Oh and 3 weeks into being alcohol free- taking my own AF beer!!
01/01- 219lb Good session at the gym yesterday and thankfully the gym’s open again today. Had a takeaway last night and probably indulged too much in nibbles etc. Stuck to non-alcoholic beer which is a win. I think the salt from the curry and nuts etc are causing this weight retention today. Stuck within my calories- just, yesterday so hopefully this will come off in the next day or so. Plenty of water today and easy on the carbs....
01/02- 216.8lb Stuck to my intentions yesterday. Made a lovely sweet potato and black bean chilli which made several portions 👍🏻. Another gym session today followed by an hour of football training, so plenty of cardio today. Going to have another day of watching carbs closely and drinking loads of fluid in order to flush out any remaining water weight from New Years.
01/03- 216.2 (Moving in the right direction)
Skipped the cardio aspect of the gym yesterday as my legs were in pieces after heavy squats and various isolation exercises. Felt like I could eat everything in sight yesterday- chose healthy (ish) snacks to eat rather than the masses of chocolate my misses has in the cupboard! Plan today is to do a chest session at the gym and stick to my food entered in my diary (I always log the day before).

Goal 121- half of my former self
Ultimate Goal- Maintain 130-135

This round’s goal is to end at a lower number than I started at. Goal every round is to get my average down by any number

Averages

R97- 150.4
R99- 150.25

12/29- 150.4
12/30- 150.4 Headed out of town for a few days. I don’t plan to go too far off the rails but I will be enjoying the last Holiday bump up before getting down to some serious hard work in January. Lol doing the traditional New Years jumping on the weight loss bandwagon.
12/31- DNW Happy New Years Everyone.
01/01- DNW
01/02- 158.2 CARBS
01/03- 154.4 lol it will take a couple of days to get rid of the bump. It looks like an impressive loss but it really is just going back to no sugar and 50 net carbs. I’m also tightening up my calories taking away my exercise eat backs for the next few months. I’ve decided to push harder and try to hit my goal sooner.

Thanks @grandmajackie, this challenge is great. First time joining in. I love setting short-term goals and everyone’s posts and successes are so motivating. Two days ago I hit my heaviest weight ever. I’m on my third day of eating healthy and exercising.

My 10 day goals:

- Row 7 out of 10 days
- Eat minimum 4 serv of vegies/fruit each day
- No sugar or processed food
- Intermittent Fasting 16/8 (5 out of 10 days)
- Drink, drink, drink ..... water
-1500 calories or less per day
- Don’t put things off until I lose weight - live as if I'm already there!

12/31 - 181.0
01/01 - 180.6
01/02 - 180.1
01/03 - 179.9 - Met 10 day goal - 6 pounds lost since I joined MFP on 12/27/19. Just squeaked it out this morning and finally back into the 170's!! Even if I go back and forth for a few days into 180's again, on this day I hit it and will enjoy it this morning. My goal for the rest of this 10 day period is to be solidly in the 170's to start the next 10 day challenge! Today will be the 7th day I've done intermittent fasting. In some ways, it's just happened naturally because I find when I fast, I start being able to go without eating somewhat easier and not as focused on food. Emphasis on "somewhat" as I'm not there all the way. Never being hungry in the mornings helps. However, last night I was very hungry. My average calories over the last 7 days has been 1163 (not net) with rowing every day but one burning 300 calories. I allow 1500 calories a day so if I go over 1200 I don't get into my old games of OMG I'm over by 1 calorie, I must eat everything in sight and start over, which means I'm going to eat for days as I try to get back on it. I've finally got it through my head that even an 1800 calorie day is better than deciding I blew it because I ate 1400 calories and must eat everything in the house! Another reason IF is good for me is my cravings are horrible in the late afternoon/evening so it's helping me to regain control of that time period. I'm going to up my calories a little and start snowshoeing or walking along with rowing. Challenge coming up: Playoffs and wanting to make all kind of good stuff. I think I'll do baked wings with very little blue cheese dressing! This is going to be a very fun weekend with all the games!!

Previous posts

01/02 - 180.1 - 7th day sticking to it! If 17 hrs. I'm thrilled with the scale going down but also know that some of it is water weight from the holidays and know it will slow down and may even go up a little in the days to come. However, what I'm really proud of is that I've stuck with it this first week since for me (and most people I'm sure) the starting, or getting back on it, is the hardest of all. I know I'm going to do it this time! Starting to have health issues and hitting the highest weight by far that I've ever hit freaked me out big time. When I joined this message board, and it was the first time I joined one, I wasn't sure if it would help, but it's really amazing how nice and supportive everyone is and how it really does keep you accountable and motivated.

12/29 - 183.9
What I did well: Ended 16/8 intermittent fast at 10am this morning for 18 hrs fasting. This works for me because I'm not hungry in the mornings. I can go to bed hungry and wake up not hungry at all and I eat 2 meals the day my fast ends. Waterrower for 30 mins, actual calories (not net) 1197, started new fast at 3:30pm. No sugar. No processed food. 4 vegies.
What I can improve on tomorrow: Eat at least 2 serv fruit, drink more water - only 5 cups today. Add some reps with free weights.

12/30 - 182.7 Yay! Ended Fast of 18 hrs. Too early to doc how today went but I have to say I feel very optimistic. I have never joined an online group before and I can already tell the accountability factor, reading all your posts with how you're doing and seeing your progress is extremely motivating. Additional goals: be able to climb 2 flights of stairs in house without getting winded and not have my bra cut me in half - sorry to the guys on here.

Evening update: Calories 1015 (not net), rowed 30 mins, did some free weight, stopped eating at 4pm, and did NOT eat sugar, which is great considering my cravings are all-in after the holidays - but they are subsiding, thank goodness. What I need to do better tomorrow: did not meet my vegie/fruit goal unless you count white potatoes and onions in a ham casserole as vegies Got to drink more water too!

12/31 - 180.9, and because i thought something was wrong with my scale , I weighed again later and it was 181.0 so 5 pounds in 5 days, BUT readying myself if it goes up tomorrow to not get discouraged. I must have had a LOT of water weight after Christmas. I thought it would go up today because I ate bread and potatoes yesterday (but kept calories low and rowed). The bread I eat though is homemade english muffin bread. It's higher in protein because made with bread flour and whole milk - no butter, oil, or eggs and just 63 calories per oz (and so good). 1221 calories. IF 19.5 hrs. I'm going to drink a lot of water today to see if I can keep my weight from shooting up tomorrow. I will enjoy the moment though!

01/01 - 180.6. IF 18 hrs. 1138 calories. Shoveled a foot of snow off my deck - it took me forever but burned calories like crazy and so nice to just be outside. Rowed 10 mins. Today I will eat those 6 vegies/fruit I keep saying I'm going to eat LOL and drink 64oz of water! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE. Here's to a very healthy 2020!

My 61st Round!

Time to start counting calories again. I've finished over maintenance the last 3 rounds and it's time to get serious. I've read that 80% to 95% of people who have lost a significant amount of weight will regain it within 2 to 3 years. I've been part of that statistic in the past, but this time I'll be one of the 5% to 20%. I've managed to mostly maintain over the past year and I plan to continue into the New Year.

Day/Weight/Comment

12/29 - 147.5 - Holding steady. I logged all my food this evening and ended up at 1500 calories, which is more than I should have eaten (65 above goal after exercise calories). I need to log as I eat (which is how I lost weight before). I've gotten out of the habit and I need to get back. I also had extra sodium today, so tomorrow I may be up.
12/30 - 147.5 - I'm glad there is no Monday bounce. I've already logged my breakfast and since I'm back in the office I should do better drinking my water today.
12/31 - 147
01/01 - 148.5 - We had a great time with family and overnight guests.
01/02 - 147
01/03 - 147.5 - I took 3 days vacation this week for the New Year. Back to work today and back to logging. I'm glad the New Year celebration didn't do too much damage.

I ended up really thirsty, too, and almost met my water goal in a 2 hours span. Guess my body needed a bit of a flush. Still struggling with TOM issues (bloat and general sluggishness) but hoping it'll be over by tomorrow, I hate feeling like this. It seems worse than normal, but I know its because of my not-so-great choices with food, activity, and stress levels. I know I can control how my body feels but I seem to forget in the moment how that food, water, relaxation help. Leading me into: Today is Day 2 of Yoga With Adriene 30 day HOME. Excited to see where this takes me!

Previous Day's Comments

12/29 - The scale behaved better this morning. It actually shifted numbers when I moved so I believe this weight. Not bad for having an early dinner out with friends and a few drinks. I did wake up extremely thirsty so I drank almost a full bottle of water before I even got out of bed so I'm sure this is a bit higher than it would be had I not done that. Honestly forgot about weighing until I finally got out of bed and went into the bathroom. Quite happy to see 154.x again despite the water chugging.
12/30 - Holding steady, I'll take it. I was so hungry so I ended up having a really early dinner and then was hungry again when I went to bed. I knew I'd get a stomach ache if I ate that close to bed and it wasn't painful hunger so I let it go. Not hungry at all this morning so I'll take that as a win. Trying to fast until 11 (our lunch) and start this week with a good 19 hour fast. Also love work weeks simply because I'm THAT much better with my water intake. I get so lazy and forgetful at home. Goal is to continue water intake on Wednesday when I'm off.
12/31 - Hello again, how I've missed you! Hoping to say goodbye to 154.x and above as I say goodbye to 2019. Came in early to work so I can leave a little early for the football game and hopefully make my spinach artichoke dip for the group after. I still have to get some groceries for it so I'm not quite sure if it'll be for tonight or tomorrow. We shall see how things go. Happy New Year all!!

Edit: Boo, I realized TOM will be here any day now to help me ring in the new year. This makes me worry I'm not going to be saying goodbye to 154.x and above after all. Going to just have to work extra hard to stay on top of things in hopes I can avoid a blip (or that any loss is greater than or equal to any TOM blips I have)
01/01 - Hello, TOM. Hello water weight. This is expected, not too upset by it. We didn't really have "dinner" and instead had a bunch of finger food (chips and dip, bacon wrapped smokies, bbq smokies). My neighbor taught me how to make his family's chip dip and I loved it! Too many super-salty chips throughout the night. In hindsight I should have made sure to eat a proper dinner before starting on the snacks so I wouldn't be so hungry. Only had 2 drinks before the small glass of champagne at midnight. Hopefully this weight will be down very quickly and I'm sure I can before the end of the round. TOM bloat should be gone no later than Sunday and the salty water weight will be gone long before that as long as I can stay on track.
01/02 - Holding still. At least I can be happy that I haven't increased! Bloated like no other (I had too much dairy, lactose sensitive) I took my lactose pills which eased the discomfort from it, but didn't seem to ease the bloat itself. Going to push water today and try to watch my evening eating. Shouldn't be too hard now that the madness of New Years is over and normalcy resumed (was planning a low key event for New Years but my landlady came over and made it into a party and we are still recovering from her. All struggling financially so we don't want to waste the leftover food). Hoping, if I don't eat any more dairy, I'll lose the bloat by tomorrow and drop some water weight with it. I'm determined to get back down!

@CamandJarvis, I think I saw her on the Today show this morning. I was busy doing things and couldn't watch but I believe I caught her name.

@BonnieHosk85 I love her videos! I've visited her Youtube page for yoga so many times before and saw she had a few 30 day challenges (obviously, I could've done one of those) but never stuck with it. Then I saw she had a new one starting Jan 1 so I decided I'll do it while its active. I'm in a NerdFitness Academy group on facebook and several ladies are doing this so it was perfect for me. Accountability with them and with all of you! How could I fail?

Goal for this round: 168.x

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29—170.8 All holiday sweets are cleared from the house. I think I’ll begin the No Junk Food Challenge today for a week. After all the cookies, cakes, etc available 24/7 over the holidays, not only do I need to do this, but it may help with breaking that sugar addiction which will be difficult again. Hopefully, I’ll be able to stick with it most days at least. One day at a time! I’ve also committed to the 365-mile Challenge (not counting step miles) and recruited two long-time friends to share a spreadsheet to track our progress, so this should be fun, too. I did it two years ago (finished by June) and it was not only fun, but really helped keep me motivated to get outside every day weather allowed and get in a walk, bike ride, or hike.
12/30—170.2–Got in a 20 minute/5 mile exercise bike program; walked the neighborhood; was successful in the No Junk Food Challenge. I will track all my food today!
12/31—169.8—Goodbye 170s! Not going back. Hurt my back yesterday putting together a piece of furniture, but still hobbled around the neighborhood for a walk—not as long as it would have been, but at least I got our there. With all sweets out of the house, I already feel better! Goals for today: fast 16/8 or better, log all food and stay within calories, and get in a walk AND a bike session. Oh, and HIDE THE PEANUT BUTTER!
01/01–167.2—Love this!!! But I did work for it! Went for a longer walk, but the real difference was in my nutrition. Working in lots of veggies and several fruits throughout the day, even a little yogurt with fresh fruit as my dessert last night at dinner. No cheating yesterday. Success with the No Junk Food Challenge for 3 days in a row now. That always works for me if I will stick to it ruthlessly. Happy New Year!
01/02–169.0—Hiked yesterday, which almost always makes me tick up a little bit, but I also gave in to some LNS last night. Hopefully this will drop quickly again. Still a loss for the round so far though, so
01/03—167.8—Yay, headed back in the right direction. Got in a good workout early yesterday with my exercise bike, then stayed on plan for calories in the green. Have a breakfast meeting this morning at Panera—I will NOT have a cinnamon crunch bagel!!! I’ll need to repeat that mantra to myself multiple times between now and then. LOL

Due to lack of access to my regular scale, my entries will be somewhat of a guess for this round. I will be weighing later in the day and wearing different clothes. I will miss some days too I suppose. It will mess with my averages, but it is what it is. I will just put an asterisk next to the number. Once back in the routine there will be a big correction in 2020. And, I will hit 199 sometime in 2020!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29 - 388.6 - Walked around a local mall 1.2 miles, will take another walk after dinner.
12/30 - 393.4 - Forgot to weigh myself this morning so this is after lunch + haven't been out yet (later today, though) because of the rain.
12/31 - 389.1 - Tweaked my knee Monday night and haven't been able to walk. Rest is smart in this case. But I expect my weight to rise a bit tomorrow. I hate missing my walks.
01/01 - 392.2 - Knee is better, but outside walking may be out. Fortunately, the local gym is open today. Gonna try the Cybex to keep from stressing my knee. Also found that if I don't track my calories/food w/MyFitnessPal, my weight seems to go up a bit. So... back to tracking (NY resolution).
01/02 - 391.5 - Knee continues to improve, but I'll still use the Cybex at my local gym. I have to pedal faster than I like, but get done in 45 minutes. If I'm not lazy and track my calories properly (MFP) I see gradual decreases. When I'm an idiot...
01/03 - 389.9 - Back under 390 again. Knee feels good. I'll stay at the gym for, at least, one more day. But I want to get back outside. Now I'll start adding yoga and weights to my plan. Just use MFP for calorie tracking and it always works. Why I stop? Laziness?

@LisaW57 - Welcome back! Sorry to hear about your son's mother n law. Is there a father-n-law? My prayers and thoughts to the family and newborn.

Thank you. We are all still in shock. Momma was only 48. Who dies in childbirth after a full term, uneventful pregnancy?! Yes there is a father in-law. It's uncertain whether he is going to be able to take on an infant by himself. The baby is doing well, and there are no immediate signs of special needs, but he will need to be monitored closely for developmental issues. My son and his wife were to be designated God parents, and are preparing to take on whatever level of assistance is needed.

Small NSV — I baked a cake and a batch of cookies yesterday for events today and later in the week, but didn’t nibble.
No snacks during the day. Small snack in the late evening. Feeling motivated! 🥗🥚🍠🧘🏻🚴🏻‍♀️

Well, here we are at the end of another year and another decade. Here’s to all of us making way toward our goals in 2020!

12/31/19 - 175.4
Yeah, I snacked last night. Sort of a last blast. I also made chicken pot pie 🥧 from scratch for dinner, DH request, and it was delicious and rich and I confess, I ate more than I should have! Woke up to snow ❄️ so when it stops I’ll get my workout clearing the driveway and sidewalks. No partying tonight but I am planning to go to a women’s labyrinth walk and gathering, which should be a lovely way to see the old decade on its way. If you’re going out, be safe, have fun! 🎉

01/01/20 - 176
Time lag bounce there, I think. I did have the chicken pot pie leftovers last night, but ate close to calorie goal.
I expect a sodium bump tomorrow — DH wants to go out for Chinese. We had planned to do that Christmas Eve but I was sick. So it will be absolutely my last blast for a while, and I’ll stick to stir fry. Happy New Year, all!

01/02/20 - 176.6
Sodium. Chinese, and not enough water. It’s fine. Better days to come!

Back for Round 100
Female / Age 62 / 5'2"
OW: 158.5 (12/30/18)
UG: 135.0 (for now, healthy weight for me)

Thanks @GrandmaJackie for getting us started! I've been mia, but have been tracking and I'm jumping back in! I've been following along and keeping up with everyone, but not posting myself. Big congrats to everyone making it through the last few rounds. Whether you gained, stayed stable, or managed to move forward with a loss - that's a big accomplishment! This is an easy time of year to just throw your arms up in defeat - and you stayed the course!

A big welcome to all the newbies jumping in with your goals for the New Year! The first step is the hardest. Just remember, one baby step at a time - and don't tie your success (and self-worth) to a number. Small changes add up, and you've stumbled into an amazing group

Intro:

Let me introduce myself. I struggled with my weight as a teen, topping out at nearly 200. I dropped it after high school and got to a healthy weight. Every major life changed has brought weight back on - having kids, pre-menopause, menopause, family tragedy, post menopause. I've knocked it back down each time, and have been surprised that each time required a different strategy, and resulted in a different type of lifestyle change to maintain. Each time as been much harder and slower. At this point, it's moving off at a snail's pace.

Motivation. I have a hyatial hernia. It does not bother me as long as I keep the weight at 150 or below. Every female on my mother's side has had arthritic knees, and I'm starting to feel twinges. They have also sustained falls and broken bones. My husband had a major health scare a coupe of years ago. The idea of being put out of commission by a preventable injury or illness scares the bejimminies out of me.

Goals. The goals at this stage are to drop weight to a healthy range, realign my eating style to a lifestyle that will keep me healthy into my golden years, and strengthen the muscles that support my knees, ankles, and shoulders, along with my core, to prevent injury.

Dropping weight post menopausal has been so difficult, I need this to be the last time. 10-15 pounds used to be easy to drop, so that was always my warning bell to focus. Not so much now. Looks like a 3-5 pound fluctuation will be it.

A healthy weight for me is 135-140. I've always looked anorexic at 120. We'll see how things are at 135, and go from there.

Strategy: Up the hydrating foods. Fruit with breakfast. Salad/veggies as bulk of lunch. Healthy dinner. Limit/eliminate processed carbs and sugars. Zero calorie intake after 8pm. Strength exercises 3 days on/1 day rest. Regular movement through day to compensate for desk job.

R99 Challenges: My challenges this round will be finding and getting back to a routine. Life has been quite unfair as we moved into the holidays. My son lost his mother in-law in childbirth on Christmas Eve. She was just 48, and left behind three granddaughters who are devastated and the baby was transferred to NICU 3 hours away. My daughter in-law has been with the baby (who is stable now), and we have been trying to help my son with the girls. Then my mother in-law was admitted on Thursday with complications from pneumonia and passed away on Sunday. That things have been stressful and chaotic, is an understatement.

I am proud of myself for being mindful of my emotional and physical self. It will take a concerted effort to stay the course as our family navigates the changes. I spent some quiet time this morning doing my meal planning. I've also looked at my Round Stats, and see that I stayed stable over the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays - that's huge!

12/29 (S) 145.3 (Trend Weight 144.6)

12/30 (M) 145.5 (Trend Weight 144.7) This is my one year mark for refocusing on my health, and how my eating and exercise plays into that! I am 13 pounds down and 10 pounds away from my UGW. Who'd have ever thought it would be this long and hard?! I am hoping that this is a sign that the loss is not only sustainable, but that the hard fought changes in my habits are becoming ingrained.

12/31 (T) 144.8 (Trend Weight 144.7) Not much to say here that I haven't already said. I am being mindful of my eating, but I need to refocus on fluid intake and exercise. Actually considering investing in a treadmill - this is the first time I have ever felt that I am disciplined enough to use it. I'm watching sales, and sneaking some time in to clear a space for it.

01/01 (W) 144.6 (Trend Weight 144.7) Fixed a Tex-Mex Chicken Soup in the crockpot. Healthy and easy, and should get a couple of days out of it. Son dropped the grandkids off so he could go pick his wife up. Will be a bit of schedule. Again. I have had some water already, though! I need coffee. Not going to be enough coffee in the world today. Lol

01/02 (T) 144.6 (Trend Weight 144.7) Steady. Better than a gain. Grandkids went home last night. We're still off schedule, and I'm still off routine but staying mindful of what I'm eating. I imagine this is going to be the norm until after the funerals. Mother in-law's is Monday. They haven't scheduled the one for my daughter in-law's mother yet (still waiting for autopsy). I've started cleaning and getting ready for influx of family. I have until midnight to decide whether to invest in treadmill (then the coupon expires).

01/03 (F) 144.6 (Trend Weight 144.7) lol 3 days of holding steady. I'll take it. I'm actually surprised I didn't bump up a little. First day in several without the grandkids. I feel asleep early and missed dinner then woke up hungry, so dinner was around 10pm. Late night eating generally reeks havoc with the scale. This was a nice surprise.

12/29 – 123.4
12/30 – 124.4 – There is the slight bump I have been expecting. I have been eating horribly, so I have honestly expected more and sooner. TOM is also on its way.
12/31 – 125.0
01/01 – 124.8 – Happy New Year! Still maintaining, but time to do a little more. I need to get back to tracking my calories and some intermittent fasting. Also planning to start jogging again with the goal of a 5k in the coming months.
01/02 – 123.0 – Did good on the calories, eating window from 9-7, but didn’t drink near enough water. I expected a slight drop but am surprised by this much. Jogged/walked 2.16 miles.
01/03 – 123.8 – Calories were good again, a little extra snacking though. Eating window was from 12-8, drank more water but still not enough.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29--Back in town after 5 days. We had a great time. I weighed myself when I got home late this afternoon, just to get some idea of how much of a bump up there is on the scale after my snacking and lack of water drinking, and I was only up 3.6lbs. I will weigh in tomorrow morning at my regular weigh-in time to get a more accurate number.
12/30--208.1 Only up 2.5lbs after being out of town, I am happy about that. Strength coach today. Goal for today is to get my water in.
12/31--207.8 Yesterday's workout with my strength coach was really hard, it's surprising how quickly my workouts can suffer when I haven't worked out for a such a short time. I'm back at work today after being off for a week, so the regular schedule today should make it easier for me to get my water in today.
01/01--208.1 Didn't fully get back to normal eating as my husband wanted to go out for dinner and some drinks last night. I went to see my strength coach today and it was another tough workout. I told my coach that for me this year is the year of flexibility, so that is what I will work on this year. Also, by working on my flexibility, it will also help me with my weightlifting.
01/02--207.4 Tonight is my 1st day of a 30 day yoga YouTube program I'm going to do, in order to work on my flexibility.
01/03--206.3 Finished day 1 yesterday of my yoga program, and while at times it was difficult, I felt so good afterwards. I did not have a great sleep last night, but luckily I am off today, but I do have some appointments today. I'm supposed to go to the gym today...we'll see.

01/02 181.3 Back on it!! I'm happy that I pretty much maintained over the holidays and while on vacation! I got sooo many steps and watched what I ate for the most part. Although I did have 3-4 days of eating waaaay too much chocolate lol. Now to lose the next 30lbs!! I'd really like to get back into the 170s by the end of this challenge. I'm hoping I have some more water to get rid of too.
01/03 179.2 WHOA!! This means I probably did lose some weight while on vacation and it was just masked by water from the chocolate binge! I can't believe I'm back into the 170s! Now to stay there

12/29: 166 - Tried out some beginners yoga today and it’s really fun so far! I think it’s really important to enjoy your exercise and I’m glad I found something I enjoy.
12/30: 164.2 - Did more basic yoga today along with one of those ten minute workout apps. I am currently using Yoga With Adriene - “Yoga For Complete Beginners - 20 Minute Home Yoga Workout!” (it’s on youtube) to do yoga. It’s a really good video for newbies like me, I really recommend it!
12/31: 163.6 - This year was pretty good to me, I accomplished all my new year’s resolutions plus a bit extra. I’m both terrified and excited for what 2020 will bring. Goodbye 2019!

1/2 161.0 I took a break from this challenge while I was on vacation and through the holidays. I tracked only intermittently and did not eat as well as I normally do, so I could NOT be happier that I'm only up .7lbs after 20 days of not consciously being "good". This a HUGE NSV for me. I didn't track obsessively and still basically maintained. If it hadn't been Christmas and I hadn't made those lemon butter cookies I may have been even better . I missed reading everyone's stories I'm catching up today! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!!!!!!

1/3 161.0 I'm always happy when it doesn't go up. The Mapmyfitness app has a You vs the year challenge. It's to run/walk 1020 kilometers, I missed it last year due to the stupid leg injury that derailed me for 6 weeks. I want to hit it this year. Fingers crossed for no injuries, I have 5 in as of today and hope to get in 12 or 15 in this weekend! I'm going to add it to this to help keep me accountable.

@HoopsGuy72 Like you, I would relax a bit when I had a small success. I would be very mindful of what I was eating one day and the scale would go up the next, then pizza and Dairy Queen two days later and that scale would go down. It took me decades to realize what I have stated many times here - it often takes 2 or 3 days for what I’ve eaten to show up on the scale.
