Day/Weight/Comment
01/18: 202.0 Weight is off to a good start this round, but my sodium intake was still too high yesterday.
01/19: 201.2 Yes! And I kept under my sodium macro, too!
01/20 200.0
01/21: 200.8 I felt sick all day yesterday because of pms, so I gave into my carb cravings. Honestly, I expected my weight to be much worse. Not that I’m unhappy!
01/22: 201.8 I was very good all day...until my sister and her boyfriend made a surprise visit with CiCi’s pizza and brownies (my favorite poison!). It was worth the price!
01/23: 199.5 Hello there, one hundreds! I have missed you!! Sugar intake was a little high yesterday, but my sodium intake was right on point.

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. MaxwellMy goal for 2020 is to get into ONEderland and making it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
- Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target 70k steps per week
- Drink more water (target min 64 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
- Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020)
- Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
- Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Day/Weight/Comment
1/18 165.2lbs, 35.8%bf; 7h50m/89 - finally went to get some antibiotics for this bronchitis! Not worried about the gain - had a lot of beer and a LOT of sodium Thursday night. Drank a bunker of water. Still trending in the right direction.
1/19 164.2lbs, 35.5%bf; 7h55m - all that water did its job. 😊 Had a good day, got some stuff done and watched an AMAZING hockey game. 🦅🏒
1/20 164.6lbs, 35.6%bf; 8h13m/89 - needed that sleep!
1/21 164.4lbs, 35.6%bf; 7h10m/80 - good workout, long day at work, good night once I got home. All in all, a good day.
1/22 163.4lbs, 35.3%bf; 6h36m/79 - won't be shocked if I jump up a bit and slowly come back down.... that seems to be my pattern. Still... I don't hate this.

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)

01/18 - 145.5 - There is the drop I was looking for the past few days.
01/19 - 144.5
01/20 - 145 - I hope I can keep my weight around here the next few days.
01/21 - 145 - OK, I've been sticking to 1200 calories and my little work-outs and it seems to be working.
01/22 - 145 - After the last few rounds, I'm happy staying at this weight to the end of this round.
01/23 - 145 - One week ago I had been stuck at 147 and hopped on the scale and hit 147.5, so I was actually very happy to see this number today.

01/21-171.2 sweet. Didn't get a workout in yet this week but calories has been good. Need to drink more water though.
01/22-170.6woohoo
01/23-170.2 first workout of the week yesterday, feeling good about this challenge. Seems like my kiddos are coming down with something, really going to have to stay strong if they get sick, that always throws me off.

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!
01/23 - 152.6 (-0.0) 1193 cal, 7636 step, all ok except water and not quite there for the steps, so I will try and achieve my goals on those two issues. My daughter's X-ray are good at first glance, initial diagnosis is mild whiplash and a specialist will check and get back to us Monday. They're pleased that there were no further injuries to the vertebrata she broke last year. On another note, the dark miserable cold weather is eating it's way through my motivation reserves, I can't wait for longer warmer days and it's not even February yet

I took a break because of travel and now am refocused! I was freaking out the first day when I stepped on the scale and then decided not to. It will come off.
I can't find my old notes so this is a new start for me 😆 I'm going to have a huge loss this round because my initial number is inflated due to excessive amounts of delicious hummus that I do not regret.
A new tactic is to try and not log but be mindful regardless. I don't want to fixated on logging calories. We shall see how this works!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18--205.0 I barely drank any water yesterday. My upper back is still sore from yesterday, but I did take some pain meds and used a heating pad last night and it definitely helped. Hubby and I are going to paint the laundry room/storage room this weekend. I'm going to try and go out for a walk today, but it's supposed to be raining all day so who knows.
01/19--204.8 Upper back feeling better. Hubby finished 1/2 of the painting, and I will do some more painting today. Strength coach today.
01/20--204.5 I had a dexa scan on Friday and frustratingly, my body fat % hardly changed from my last scan. While, I did lose a good % of body fat, because I also lost lean muscle mass, my body fat % basically stayed the same from my last scan. I talked to my strength coach yesterday about the results, and it was clear that I'm not eating enough protein. So, my first goal is to get my protein amount to 100g per day, I need to eat more than 100g, but it's a start.
01/21--204.5 106g of protein yesterday. It took a bit of maneuvering to make sure that I got in my protein, which included a late evening snack of roasted chicken, but I got my protein in. Rest day today.
01/22--204.3 105g of protein yesterday. It was a little easier to get my protein in as I was a little better at planning it out. But it was more difficult in that the increased protein made me feel fuller throughout the day, such that by lunch time I didn't want to eat anymore, even though I hadn't eaten enough calories for the day, and I still needed to eat more protein to reach my protein goal. I know it will take my body a little while to get used to the increase in protein, so I just need to stick to it. Strength coach today.
01/23--204.5 100g of protein yesterday. I had a great workout yesterday. Rest day today.

Day/Weight/Comment
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.
01/23- 381.2 - OK, even I am a little surprised how well IF seems to work for me. I still have a head cold, so little exercise, at all. This weight loss is all Intermittent Fasting, so, for me, this seems to work very well.

Goal for Round 102 - to continue to eat healthy, drink water, no sugar or processed food. IF 4 out of 7 days, Row, lift weights and walk. 174.5 pounds
Tracking my next goal: hit 160's again!!
Round 102 Daily Recap1/18 176.0 I've lost 10 pounds! What a great way to start this round. It was time for a slight drop so very happy to see it! I had my doubts because I didn't exercise yesterday, or drink enough water and I made english muffin bread and had one slice, which I was still only 1157 calories. The bread only has 63 calories an oz. What I'm most proud of though is the fact I only ate one slice of bread. NEVER in the past would I have had the willpower or control over my cravings to do this, especially in the evenings! Here's to this being a successful round for all of us!
1/19 176.0 I've had a small cold so hadn't exercised for a few days. Rowed 30 mins this morning. Will be shoveling snow later today. Beautiful Sunday morning with the snow untouched yet and deep blue sky. Have a lovely day all!
1/20 177.0 - Yike, that wasn't easy to write.
It just reminds me that I can't get too excited or too low whichever way the scale goes and watch the trend. First time over 1500 calories in 3 weeks on Saturday - 1671 calories, which isn't too bad. Yesterday was 1391 but too many carbs and too much sodium. I've had a cold so didn't exercise Friday and Saturday but did row yesterday and this morning. Have not drank enough water either. So many things to work on over the next eight days of this round! I'm still happy to be out of the 180's FOREVER!!!!
1/21 177.0 Okay, I guess this is the weight I'm going to have to work with
What I did well: Before, I would have been binging and off my 'diet' for weeks by now and especially if my weight went up. The fact I'm still encouraged and sticking to it I am EXTREMELY grateful! I held my calories at 1573 and rowed. I appreciate the small changes that aren't scale related like the fact my clothes fit better.
What I didn't do well: I did not drink water. I ate too many carbs. I made chicken soup for my cold a few days ago and did not have low sodium chicken broth so too much sodium. I haven't done IF for a few days. I haven't had enough vegetables or fruit.
So, I'm throwing down a challenge to myself by writing down all my goals for today on tomorrow's date and I will have to take them off if I don't do them
1/22 175.9 I wrote these goals down yesterday to get back on it and did it! 64 oz of water _Yes_; 4 vegies _YEP_; 2 fruit: _Yes_ (my favorite: frozen blueberries, raspberries and milk in a blender - so good)_; stayed under 1200 calories: _1180_; rowed: _Yes_; turn on favorite songs and dance for 10 mins (because music makes everything better!) _Yep_; began IF before 5PM: _did it!_
I felt like I was slowly losing all the good habits I had created over the past 3 weeks. I can handle my weight fluctuating because that's perfectly normal, as long as I'm doing the right things; however, what got me over the past 3 to 4 days was I could tell I was starting to slip back into my old ways and know from experience this leads to me binging and falling off entirely for weeks, and gaining all my weight back to boot. Not this time, though. I caught myself, learned it's okay if I'm off a few days (it doesn't mean I blew it) and I don't have to be so damn rigid - just get right back to eating healthy and exercising. Goodness, losing weight really is as much about your mental/emotional health as it is physical, isn't it...?! AND working on both is necessary!

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!
01/22 125.2 lbs Yay! Nice to see my goal weight for this round, even if only for one day.
01/23 125.2 lbs Hey, two days in a row! Motivating.

01/18 163.6 lbs
01/19 162.2 lbs We were having a blizzard so in order to get my steps in I walked 5 miles in my house with family home, pretty sure they think I am crazy. Not going to kid myself that this is going to stay but hoping this means I am closer to my goal for this month.
01/20 163.4 lbs Hubby wanted breakfast, so I cooked and he wanted me to eat with him, which meant I broke my fast to early in the day and I knew we were going out for pizza and beer with friends in the evening but it was too long of a time to wait between and I ended up snacking and going over my calories. But it was a great day with family and friends and we need those days too, mentally. Still no exercise except snowmobiling but we are suppose to warm up above zero this week, hoping to do some cross country sking.
01/21 165.0 No idea what happened here. around 1200 calorie, made it 10,000 steps, IF from noon to 8pm. I wish I could exercise more. No access to a gym, hoping to ski today because it's too icy to walk.
01/22 162.8 lbs I did try sking but it was windy and raw on the face, snow is not the greatest but made it a mile. Hoping to ski with friends this afternoon, wind should be less.
01/23 164.4 lbs. Skied three miles.

1/18: 149.2 (+1) - Cheat day extraordinaire! Movie with darling daughter so of course popcorn and candy. Sorry not sorry. She’s back to college on Monday and I got to spend time with her! Worth every calorie. Bummer is today I am in 9 hours of tax return training to become a volunteer preparer. I hate sitting for that long!!!!😵
1/19: 148.0 (-1.2) This is not going to last lol! 😂 I sat on my fanny all day in a training class yesterday and had a nice dinner with wine. But that is weight for you! Today, run and gym and good food choices.
1/20:148.2 (+.2) Another week, another chance to kill it with good food, exercise and self care. Let’s get it💪💪
1/21: 147.2 (-1.0) Rollercoaster scale…..went to yoga yesterday so the chill feels maybe helped relax my hold on fat. Today, strength circuit and cardio. Sleep is always better without alcohol!
1/22: 146.8 (-0.4) Ate ok today. Prolly could have eaten less. Had a couple of drinks….not sure why, but feeling stressed. Time for another yoga class. More water. Cardio day.🙌
1/23: 146.8 (0) Planned my eating around my book club so I could have the snacks and drinks. Good plan and workout. I will say that I do so much better sticking to the plan when I am not social. But alas, I can’t hide under a rock. I have to learn to do this MFP thing always, everywhere, forever. Cheers🍾

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 – Didn’t weigh, not at home.
01/19 – Didn’t weigh, not at home. Date with hubby yesterday and I took a break from tracking. Outback for lunch and we did eat blooming onion petals, but I only hate half of my lunch entrée and saved the rest for dinner. Then to the movies, but no snacks or sodas.
01/20 – 123.4 – Not too bad considering the weekend.
01/21 – 123.2
01/22 – 122.8 – Been eating my pre-planned lunches this week. Busy day yesterday, so I had a quick light dinner. Then when I finally got home, enjoyed one of my current favorite snacks. Vanilla Greek yogurt with fresh pineapple and a little bit of granola for some crunch.

1/18/20 - 177.6
Calories were fine yesterday, but I had lunch out with a friend and I’m sure I got a big sodium blast. This evening we’re going to a tiny pitch in, but I’ll aim for healthy. I’ll have to sample desserts so I don’t insult anyone, but will keep it small. Happy Saturday, all!
1/19/20 - 177.4

Aaack. I thought I was gaining control and then had ice cream last night. Oh, well, today’s another day and another fresh start.

Oh, come on. I was fine on calories yesterday. Maybe it’s the ice cream from Monday. Whatever.

Round 101 EW - 172.8
1/18 - 172.4
1/19 - 171.8
1/20 - 172.0 Great weekend. Ate sensibly. Going to keep it going at work this week.
1/21 - 171.8 Monday was good. Found some dark chocolate covered almonds on the clearance shelf. Just a couple of these delicious morsels make the best reward at the end of the day. (Hard to eat just 2 but there are only 12 so I'm going to try to make them last - my challenge for the week).
1/22 - 171.0 This round is going great. I think I've found a plan that will work. I'm eating mostly the same meals every day which makes it soooo much easier for me. No decisions. Eating a lot of eggs (love eggs) cooked every which way with different bits of meat/veggies thrown in. No cholesterol problems so not worried about that. Throw in a good salad with lots of good veggies. A small piece of chocolate and ta-da the weight is coming off. Oh yes, also lots of water! (There are other foods involved but not on a regular basis.)

Round 102 – Round 2 for me
Original starting weight: 155lb
EW for round 101: 127lb
Ultimate goal weight: 124lb (maintenance is 123-126)
Goal weight for this round: 125.4
1/18 126.4 Good start to the challenge
1/19 126.8 Expected that bump, enjoyed Chipotle for lunch.. stayed under my calorie goal, but still a large meal than I typically have.
1/20 DNW
1/21 127.4 I know I sound like a cliché.. but I really don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I have truly been at my goal (honestly, I’m usually under my goal each day) and have gotten a work out in each day, and I’m still have such a hard time losing. This isn’t my first rodeo, so I know how to do it.. I’m not sure why I’m struggling so much this time. It might be because it’s only a few pounds to lose, could be just natural fluctuations, could be this horrid cold I have. I don’t know. But it is so frustrating.
1/22 126.6 Here we go back down… hopefully it will stick this time and continue downward. This cold is still kicking my butt, taking it easy but still trying to get some form of exercise in each day.
1/23 126.8 Another perfect day, another day with no loss.

01/18 264.2 There’s the water bounce dropping, plus a little more. Tom still hasn’t arrived, but at least I’m not holding onto water like the last few times it decided to be late. My goal is to see some new lows this round.
01/19 262.6 When I said yesterday that I wanted to see some new lows this round I wasn’t thinking that I would see them so soon! Though this could in part be to sleeping in an hour later than usual, I’ll be happy if I don’t see a little bounce tomorrow when I weigh at my new usual time. I figured out my eating schedule so that I’m not overly hungry by dinner time and trying not to eat everything in sight. My nsv yesterday was buying some new mean’s sweatpants in large and top in xtra large. The shirt looks a little stuffed sausage on me, but it will soon fit better, and I don’t mind wearing it in the house.
01/20 262.4 I weighed at my usual time this morning and I’m just happy there wasn’t a bounce up from the different weigh in times.
01/21 260.8 This whoosh is brought to me by another later weigh in. I was very tired when I got up this morning, so I went back down for a short bit. I am so glad I did because I feel 100 times better and have energy which has been missing lately. Plus it brought me this nice whoosh down.
01/22 261.0 The small bounce is okay, I was a little high on sodium yesterday. I’ve already hit my goal for the month and anything more is happy extra toward my goal for the year.
01/23 260.4 And back down plus some. I’m only a little bit from the first big goal I wanted to hit this year and I’m going to work really hard to not be derailed by the weekend.

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 challenge round 102
Starting Weight: 203
Current Weight: 184
Current Goal: BMI<30 or 164
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 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
1/23 184.3 I'm on plan and optimistic. I love seeing others with the same up and down that I go through.

1/21 161.7 0 miles Very frustrated with weight and food and all of it. The same thing happened in January last year. I just lost my way after doing well over the holiday. I've not been eating great though I'm still walking as much as possible. I'm still tracking but not being 100 honest with it. A lot going on in my life right now - most of it very good but it's an excuse somehow to behave badly. I've been spending too much money and spending too many calories all on junk. If I would just drop the extra water I've been carrying around for almost 2 weeks I'd feel better.
1/22 162.1 3.3 miles I can't seem to avoid sodium. Ate back all my exercise calories yesterday. I got in a little more than three miles. It's snowing/raining/sleeting today so I don't think I'll walk. I don't mind walking in the snow, but the sleet makes it too slick. I'm just going to stick to my plan and what happens - happens with weight.. It will come down, I will continue to exercise.
1/23 164.0 0 miles Yes, I had Chinese for lunch. I went as low calorie as possible but the sodium was high. My calorie count was on target so I'm trying to not worry. I started with extra water yesterday and I will continue to drink more today. I feel like the first 30 pounds flew off and the last 20 has been holding on for dear life. Still too snowy and cold for walking. I'm going to the gym tonight and since I've been so spotty with it I know I'll be sore tomorrow. Maybe that's what I need and little pain to remind me.10 -
