01/19 126.2 lbs Again, sticking here exactly. But Girl Scout cookie season is here, and we've committed to buying tons of boxes from my neice, so... challenges are coming my way!
01/20 DNW
01/21 127lbs I'm not proud of it, but I didn't weigh in yesterday because I was worried I'd overdone on cookies and I just didn't want to face the scale. I know, I know. Old habits die hard! Relieved to see I'm doing fine. If "fine" means staying at the higher end of my maintenance range indefinitely!

My reason why: scuba diving
R102 goal: Go to bed by 10pm
how: eat using Dr. Ludwig’s “slow carb” method , except count calories as well as using hunger cues. The total food will be 75 grams of each protein, fat and slow carb. I will eat the same breakfast and lunch everyday. and eat Marty’s dinner. I’ll make soups for lunch 300 calories, This will cut down on the amount of time I have to figure and improve accuracy. This week I’ll make a cod jambalaya. I’ll make eight servings, We’ll eat it for two days, then I will freeze the rest. On days that I exercise a lot, I’ll fill in with greek yogurt, fruit, hummus, or avocado. My strength training needs to be taken up a notch. Next week isn’t too busy, so I should be able to get to the gym/exercise six days. Green zone cardio: three days Strength: legs three days, Strength: arms and core three days Minimum: walk 30 minutes or similar every day.

10-day Goal: 182
1/18 184 I bought my new scale and am feeling very optimistic since the old scale varied by three pounds on any given day. I plan to eat on plan and go to gym for cardio and arm strength Started daily planks.
1/19 184.0 New Scale! Is it reasonable to expect my weight to decrease by 0.1 pound per day. I stayed up too late and ended up eating the equivalent of a small meal. I’m going to add a “bed at 10” to my goal.
1/20 182.0 I don’t know how I got here but I will take it.
1/21 185.0 Still don't know, but onward.

It was a conscious choice, knowing it would set me back a bit. But my mind needed a break. 😊 You can see my averages above in rounds 100 and 101. Over the next few rounds I hope to break into One-derland.

Round 102 (24 for me)
Wrapping up my break this weekend and moving ahead into a new semester. As much as I’ve enjoyed the time off, I’m excited to meet my students and take on a new set of experiences and challenges.
I’ve been playing around with my calorie allowance lately, starting to transition to a smaller deficit and slower rate of weight loss. I’ll continue to make adjustments as I add to my exercise routine this spring. The key for me is to make small changes that fit my lifestyle and are sustainable long term.

Daily goals for this round:

2) Log carefully and maintain a calorie deficit.
3) Walk or exercise 30+ minutes.
4) Cross something off my "to do" list
Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 – 172.0 – Good to start with a drop, even though it’s only back to where I started the last round. Lazy Saturday, but I got a lot of reading done before watching a movie with my husband. Wine and chocolate put me a bit over on calories.
01/19 – 172.6 – Too many calories. Didn’t bother to log, but I did manage to squeeze in a walk with my grandson.
01/20 – 173.2 – Post-weekend bounce and early weigh-in. Last day of my winter break. Grandkids had off from school, so we spent a couple of hours at the rec center and then baked chocolate chip cookies. Had two still warm from the oven, and then sent the rest home with the boys. Still stayed under my calorie limit, and I have lots of healthy meals planned for the rest of the week.
01/21 – 172.2 – Headed back down, but maybe not steadily. I’d planned to cook, but my meeting ran late and I wound up getting takeout again. Still well under my calorie limit, but pretty salty, so we’ll see what the scale says tomorrow. Met with the trainer today for my fitness assessment and workout plan.

@shunggie - I was the same, was quite controlled over Christmas and then soon after January hit I went beserk! I looked back at the previous 2 years and I did the same then; talk about history repeating itself!! Don't know why I do it, at least I'm pleased to be back in control now. Hope you find your way again really soon, I know I feel better for it and I am sure you will, you have done so well so far and life is full of these obstacles that need overcoming. Hugs to you x
@deepwoodslady - is it worth planning to keep some calories/carbs in hand to use on your late night snack?6 -

Current Weight- 212.8lb)
End of Round 102 Goal- 209lb
Ultimate Goal- 173lb
01/18- 213.8 (+1.0lb) Gain from yesterday, but happy with the overall trend. Meal out tonight, which could be testing. Going to have a very light lunch (make sure I go to the gym) so that I can have a decent meal without feeling like I’m restricting myself so much. Won’t drink any alcohol though- it amazes me how much better I feel even though it’s only been 4 weeks since my last drink.
01/19- 213.2lb (-0.6) Stuck to good choices for the meal last night and drank AF beer. Can’t seem to be finding time to go to the gym. In the past when I’ve lost weight I’ve always felt that I must go to the gym and indeed I enjoy it and love the benefits. However, this is the first time I feel that I’m getting a handle on my eating habits and changing for the better, rather than excessively exercising to try and chase poor food choices. Plan today though is to break my gym ‘mini break’, cook all my lunches for the week and get ahead with some work which will enable me to spend more time at the gym.
01/20- 213.4 (+.2lb) Another slight gain from yesterday, however only minimal. I did run (jog) a 5K yesterday so could be water weight. Was well within my calories. Went to the gym which I enjoyed. Plan for today is to continue to drink loads of fluids and make the right choices when I go out tonight with old work friends.
01/21- 212.6lb (-0.8lb) Back down after a couple of ‘gains’. Went out last night and did have a burger with chips, but only over my calories by around 250. Didn’t drink, which now puts me at nearly 6 weeks AF. So nice not to wake up with a fuzzy head. Plan today is to eat a couple of hundred calories lower than allowed; to make up for yesterday. No gym today- as I’ve got football coaching.
01/22- 212.0 (-.6lb) A new low weight; hopefully this trend will continue for the remaining days of this challenge. Drank loads of water yesterday and even joined in with the 1 mile a day challenge at work (I work in a school). Going to add that in to my routine now as well😀. Finding that I’m eating pretty much the same foods breakfast and lunch each day, varying up the evening meal. I’ll change up my lunches next week to prevent a bit of eating boredom.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 136 – 9.7 miles walked, pre planning & logging worked yesterday, I'll use it again today. Feels good to be back in control, all macros & calories well in green.
01/19 136 – 11.86 miles walked yesterday in the glorious winter sunshine. Today will be a challenge, last “Christmas” celebration of the season, all my large family get together, siblings, respective children and grandchildren, 30+ of us, we hire a church hall and all bring bits of food, you may know it as a Jacobs table or an American supper? I'm getting out for a good walk this morning beforehand and then really going to try to make healthy choices.
01/20 136.6 – 8.06 miles walked. Did indulge a little, but tried to make mostly healthy choices at our last family “Christmas” get together. Calories, carbs & sodium all over, BUT, I fought with my inner self to not use it as an “excuse” to run into a major binge (this is what would normally happen) – and it was a fight!! But the healthier me won and I ate only an apple after we got home at 6.00pm last night. So this morning I've pre-logged my food for the day and have some good walking planned too. Have a good Monday everyone!
01/21 135.8 - 10.69 miles walked yesterday, carbs 7g over, but calories and all other macros well in green. Still feeling more in control, but knee is niggling from an old injury way back in adolescence, wouldn't let me do all my stretching and toning exercises this morning, it didn't like dancing the samba as our latin & ballroom class last night, hopefully I'll still be OK for my walking today.
01/22 135.4 – 11.95 miles walked yesterday, knee is fine walking as long as I made sure I keep it in line rather than twist it – I will “nurse” it through yoga this morning. All calories & macros well in green, feeling strong.

Day/Weight/Comment
18 jan: 84.9 kg; Probably not very realistic.... slept in, so late weigh-in. Came home very, very tired after work yesterday, so no workout done. Had more water intake during the day, had some extra steps, but not happy with the total amount and above all, I ate above my calorie goal. But, today is a new day
19 jan: 84.9 kg; maybe it is a bit realistic... worked around the house yesterday, cleaned, run some errons and relaxed. Love the weekends.
20 jan: 85.1 kg; back to normal weig-in time.
21 jan: 85.6 kg; no words....
22 jan: 85.9 kg: 😱 teambuilding, 5 course Italian meal cooking togheter with pesto, ravioli, lots of cheese, tiramisu, cookies and so on. Was fun, but way tooooo much kcal!

Goals
1 - Track my calories daily
2 - Run (or gym) 2x week - yoga 1x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4 - 10.000 steps
Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:
01/18 - DNW
01/19 - DNW
01/20 - 152.6 (+1.8) Post weekend gain, which I'm really quite OK with seeing that I was invited out to dinners on both Friday and Saturday evening... added to which I didn't do any sports at all as I have a head cold. So yes, I had a good time and I'll just have to deal with it over the next few days
01/21 - 151.8 (-0.8) 1320 cal, 8587 steps, over cal by 120 as I had a couple of chocolates mid afternoon. My daughter's returned from her school skiing trip, she had a nasty fall on the last day there. We went to the doctor this ayem as she's been complaining of pains in her neck and upper back so she has to wear a neck brace for a week or more depending on the X-Ray tomorrow. Luckily they think it's only bruising but as she broke a couple of vertebrata a year ago when she was thrown off a horse they're not taking any chances, we'll see tomorrow pm.
01/22 - 152.6 (+0.8) 1294 cal, 6424 steps. A good example of when you eat about the right number of calories but the wrong type of food. I had planned pizza in the evening and was going to have a salad at lunch time to compensate but I got stuck due to meetings and ended up having sandwiches instead so the combo of sandwiches and pizza just didn't work even with just 1294 calories total. I'm hoping today will be better but my schedule is a mess so I'm not sure how it'll go.
Thanks everyone for all the well wishes for my daughter, I've taken the afternoon off to take her to hospital for the Xray and check with the spine doctor, crossing fingers it's just bruising, she was in much less pain this morning after having worn the neck brace for a day!

Feeling uplifted! For a week prior to 1/16, I hadn't lost much weight and was eating more. Between 1/16 and today, I'd eaten foods I'd felt were forbidden and felt shame. Unconsciously, I avoided weighing in, unlike my usual every 2-3 days. But weighing in more often (always morning, in birthday suit) shows me I'm actually maintaining, losing, or even gaining, but probably not as much as I feared.
01/20 221.1/100.3
Yesterday, lots of unusual, hi-salt products eaten. Calories were within okay, but the sodium content was perhaps twice my usual.
01/21 220.0/100.0
Thought I wasn't seeing NS results, but yesterday put on a pair of jeans I hadn't worn since December and found I'd moved down a belt hole!

Note: First time participant. This challenge's fixed terms and simple format are really appealing. I usually use kg/cm, but I see how lbs really is impactful.
Note2: I fast for 14 hours/day (this includes sleep time). I use the app Zero for tracking fasting time. For anyone wanting to try intermittent fasting: I figured out what an achievable goal was by starting low and increasing - 10hrs, then 12hrs, now 14hrs. That's manageable and acceptable for me. This has led me to eating 2 big meals and 2 or 3 snacks. Using MFP allows me to recognize when I need to eat, when I need to perhaps eat more or adjust my caloric intake.

01/18 - 387.1 - Good start. Knee pain almost gone. Gonna try a little walking and lifting today.
01/19 - 387.1 - My knee finally feels better, but now I've got on helluva head cold. I'll rest today, but may try a little something later.
01/20 - 386.2 - Still have my cold, but feeling better. Definitely going to the gym today.
01/21 - 385.0 - HUGE jump over the last few days. From illness or changes? I began intermittent fasting on Sunday 15/9 pattern. A little tough without those late night snacks, but mornings aren't too bad if I drink water/sea salt to replace electrolytes, then coffee when I get back from my walk. Gonna focus that first meal @ 10AM on protein and last snack @ 7PM on protein bar.
01/22 - 383.6 - The only major change in the past few weeks has been starting Intermittent Fasting. I don't want to drop too fast, but I also expected a fast initial drop. As long as I can slow it down (w/ more calories in my eating window), I'll be fine.

01/21 - Not at all bad for as long as its been. It was so ridiculously nice outside all weekend and my interview went well. Came back to "feels like" temps in the negatives so not happy about that. Have a phone interview today with a different place but I think I may be getting an offer letter in the next few days from yesterday's interview (based on what my recruiters said after he spoke with the company). We shall see. Nervous as all get out because I think I want the job they're interviewing me for today more than yesterday's but I don't want to turn down the first one and not end up getting the second one. And I have someone supposedly interested in me but haven't heard from them to set up an interview yet. Goal: DON'T STRESS EAT AS MUCH AS I WANT TO

My 63rd Round!
I will try again to drop back down to the mid range of my maintenance weight. I'm an accountant and tax season starts this round, so that means catered lunches on working Saturdays and clients bringing in goodies. I managed to maintain last tax season, but I was already in maintenance. Thank goodness for this challenge to keep me accountable.End R40: 171 (-3)

My reason why: scuba diving
R102 goal: Go to bed by 10pm
how: eat using Dr. Ludwig’s “slow carb” method , except count calories as well as using hunger cues. The total food will be 75 grams of each protein, fat and slow carb. I will eat the same breakfast and lunch everyday. and eat Marty’s dinner. I’ll make soups for lunch 300 calories, This will cut down on the amount of time I have to figure and improve accuracy. This week I’ll make a cod jambalaya. I’ll make eight servings, We’ll eat it for two days, then I will freeze the rest. On days that I exercise a lot, I’ll fill in with greek yogurt, fruit, hummus, or avocado. My strength training needs to be taken up a notch. Next week isn’t too busy, so I should be able to get to the gym/exercise six days. Green zone cardio: three days Strength: legs three days, Strength: arms and core three days Minimum: walk 30 minutes or similar every day.

1/18 184 I bought my new scale and am feeling very optimistic since the old scale varied by three pounds on any given day. I plan to eat on plan and go to gym for cardio and arm strength Started daily planks.
1/19 184.0 New Scale! Is it reasonable to expect my weight to decrease by 0.1 pound per day. I stayed up too late and ended up eating the equivalent of a small meal. I’m going to add a “bed at 10” to my goal.
1/20 182.0 I don’t know how I got here but I will take it.
1/21 185.0 I don’t know what is going on, but I’ll get a handle on this.
1/22 183.9 Back into my routine with a new scale. Back to my eating routine: breakfast-coffee&fruit (210cal). lunch-homemade soup, dinner-homemade chili, snack if needed-fruit&dairy
