Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 133 – good start to the round, 13.2 miles walked yesterday, 640 calories in credit, all other macros well in green.
02/28 133.6 – child minding DGS yesterday, 2 hour journey each way so no structured walking, but chasing him around soft play for 2 hours is a work out !!!
02/29 133.6 – 8.75 miles walked (last 3.5 danced!) yesterday, all macros well in green.
03/01 133.6 – 7.88 miles walked yesterday, 182 calories in credit, 29 carbs over.
03/02 133 – 10 miles walked yesterday, delicious Sunday lunch out with DH & 4 of my siblings, meant that I was not hungry at tea time so just had a juicy pear. Calories 373 in credit & all macros well in credit.
03/03 133.4 – 10.64 miles walked yesterday, 476 calories in credit, all other macros in green. Not much chance of a walk today; Dad's funeral & it's raining .
03/04 134.4 – Dad had a good send off yesterday & it stopped raining before we left for church and stayed dry whilst we were at the cemetery and then all afternoon. Thank you all so much for your good wishes and kind comments, it means so much. I didn't log or count yesterday and barely did 5K steps, but felt I kept in control and didn't feel bloated or stuffed. Just couldn't sleep last night; only got 3 hours and of course I'm tired now !! Today is a new day and I'm back on the straight and narrow.
03/05 133.6 – 10.45 miles walked yesterday. 871 calories in credit, all macros well in green. It was a good day.

03/05 - 144.6 - Well, lunch was heavy and I snacked a few times during the day so dinner was out. Luckily, I wasn't hungry so skipping dinner and doing an unplanned OMAD type day wasn't difficult. Kind of upset that my MFP app and the desktop version show different numbers in my food diary. They sync food, but not goals? I thought I was okay on calories according to my app, but when I looked in detail the goals I adjusted on the desktop site are different than the goals in the app and I was, in fact, over calories by approx 150. Oh well, I still got a loss out of it (likely due to the fasting since 5pm instead of my usual 7pm) and I'll take it. Had my first physical therapy appt for my ankle yesterday and one more tomorrow. The difference in strength between my ankles is very small so I've already progressed much further than my PT expected. Managed some yoga last night for detox and digestion. Tummy was rumbling (not hunger) after so I guess that practice got some things moving. It was tough and my balance isn't what it was a few weeks ago, but it felt good and apparently worked for digestion. Definitely broke a sweat which I missed.

03/07 - DNW, DNP - Out of town 7Mar-15Mar for spring break! May or may not weigh/post before leaving
Previous Day's Comments02/27 - It's quite okay, though not pretty to see. A very late carb-heavy dinner and still waiting on TOM (been feeling it terrible yesterday and today -- it better hurry up and get along now). Gives me room to drop during this last 9 days before I leave. I'd love to see 145.x again but this will also be a bit of a stressful 10 days planning and packing. Update: the ankle fracture is actually an old one-- they were able to see what they think are calcium deposits which wouldn't have shown up in less than 24 hours from injury and there's no indication its unstable whatsoever. Called it a very bad sprain. Some tears in the ligaments are likely. I'm in a stabilization brace but off crutches and out of the boot. They're also referring me to physical therapy to help keep ligaments healing properly. Doc has no problem with my walking on it so long as its stabilized which I'm very happy about. I can take short walks and get more movement in now to help this weight gain along out the door for good. Plan on having 95% of my house packed prior to spring break so plenty of movement from that! I'll have 5 days to then pack the remaining 5% once I return. Feeling very positive about this round and ready for spring break! Haven't seen the kids since BF moved first week of Dec and I've missed them so much.
02/28 - Trending down, yay! TOM finally showed up and took some bloat with it. Another late dinner as I ate with my neighbor and his daughters -- carb heavy italian with some wine. Tonight will be steaks on the grill but not sure what sides yet so hoping tomorrow is a much nicer number. Hit my 65oz water goal Today's goal is to finish 2.5 30oz bottles and work my way up to 3 (90oz) over time. Hoping lighter carb/protein-focused dinners combined with more water will get me back to 145.x for spring break. I'm DETERMINED. I want to feel confident in myself and it'll set me up nicely for summer as well. Plenty of beaches, rivers, kayaking, floating, etc in my future. I want to be able to enjoy those experiences rather than constantly think about how I look and feel ugly for it (I know I'm not, but my slight dysmorphia tells me otherwise more often than I like to admit.) I'm sure I don't do myself any favors by not sucking it up and eliminating or at least reducing the things I know bloat me up. Limit gluten-filled carbs will be a focus going forward. Lactose is much easier for me to avoid.
02/29 - On my way back down! Fasting until dinner because I had a few drinks while playing darts last night. 3 drinks at 80 calories a piece didn't do me in calorie-wise, but I know with IF, alcohol gets burned first, then glycogen, then fat. It was about 1am so it'd be about 5pm before I hit my 16 hours. I'm fine with it, don't feel hungry anyway, despite my stomach grumbling at me lol Shush and enjoy the water and tea, belly! Going to do some yoga for ankle injuries today. Feeling a bit squishy. BF wants me to gain confidence to wear a bikini I bought years ago and forgot I had. It definitely doesn't fit, so I went shopping and trying on today.... squish squish squish. Found a top I absolutely adored (and bought for motivation)! Bottoms however... I'm a pear shape so that's where my squish is. Didn't like my belly hanging over that much and the skin/fat around my hips absorbing the side of the bottoms... I'll be okay by summer if I keep up with what I've been doing the last month, but hopefully I can lose the squishy feeling I've gained in the last few days by next week. If not, they have swim bottoms that are like shorts and I can get those until I'm more comfortable. (BF is not being controlling, he just hates that I don't have confidence or find myself beautiful/attractive. I'll wear it around friends who are also like me but more comfortable with wearing a bikini, no matter their body shape. I know they'll hype me up and get me more comfortable with myself)
03/01 - Didn't expect to meet my goal so soon. Apparently the fasting worked wonders! Only had 60oz of water, rather than 90, but I had a very late start -- only began drinking water at 1130! Coffee pot is packed so I am surviving on tea for my caffeine fix (to avoid migraines) and water. It definitely forces me to get more in. Now to keep it up and maybe I'll be fortunate enough to get to 144.x? I suppose it is possible now that I've had this drop, but I won't get my hopes up. Dinner will be fajitas with the flat iron steak I have. Need to use it up and neighbor is happy grilling it for us. Not sure about lunch but have some leftover stir fry veggies I will try to get in with whatever else I find to eat. My pantry and freezer are dwindling quite nicely, though it makes healthy eating a little more challenging. A good lesson in portion control I suppose.
03/02 - Not a big deal, expected bounce from sodium. Could not resist the temptation of chips and guacamole with our fajitas last night. Got my 90oz of water but the salt came at dinner so no time to flush. Woke up feeling that water-weight squish. It'll go down quickly, I think, if I stick to my goals. Lots of water today, naked fajitas for lunch, and not quite sure dinner yet, but focused on making it light.
03/03 - Water weight gone from sodium binge. I will say, I wasn't quite expecting it to be gone that quick. Now to keep it here or drop more. No more going up! I got my 90oz water in yesterday. Not much by way of food in the house anymore. If my burger patties are thawed by tonight, I'll cook one up (no bun) with a side of veggies for dinner. There are 4 of them so it should be enough for tonight, tomorrow night (food truck at work as my splurge for lunch), and Thursday lunch and dinner. Hopefully I have enough veggies on hand to make it through that! Today's lunch is a can of chicken and dumpling soup. Not ideal, plenty of sodium as all canned soups are, but its what I had available. Either that or overpriced vending machine food. At least the sodium will be early on and I have time to flush it out before tomorrow. Will have to figure out Friday's food when I get there.. I'm off work so I have options.
03/04 - Actually surprised by this. Today is my coworker's last day. She and I went to lunch one last time together yesterday so I had a much larger, heavier meal. I was 70 calories under my goal with just lunch. Luckily for me, it kept me full through dinner. I had a handful of frozen grapes for a sweet tooth and was satisfied. Today we have the food truck (tradition for another coworker and I). The burger patties I had planned for last night weren't thawed so thankfully I wasn't hungry. Hopefully by tonight they will be. I moved them lower in the fridge where it doesn't seem to be as cold. Physical therapy this morning - very nice to sleep in! I needed it. Trying to get a couple sessions in before I move. The lady was so nice and understanding. Hopefully I can be out of the brace soon!

2/27 160.6lbs, 34.6%bf; 8h10m/89 - much better sleep! Had a good workout and a very busy day. Plus, one of my fosters found her forever family and that's always a good feeling.

2/29 158.0lbs, 33.9%bf; 7h43m/85 - well this is exciting! I know I'll bounce back above 160 - probably a couple of times - but for the moment, I am 50 pounds down from OSW. And under 34% body fat. 💪😎
3/1 157.9lbs, 33.9%bf; 6h48m/81 -quality sleep, just not enough of it. Fun day out with friends.
3/2 159.2lbs, 34.2%bf; 8h14m/93 - the bounce isn't unexpected, just happy to keep it under 160. The sleep... finally, a decent night. Come at me, Monday.... I am ready.
3/3 158.8lbs, 34.1%bf; 6h39m/83 - good workout, ok day, good food day, decent sleep (coulda used another hour).... all good. Busy days coming up with lots of eating out.
3/4 159.6lbs, 34.3%bf; 5h2m/62 - late night + late dinner = really poor sleep... totally worth the drag today. Got to spend the evening with a good friend watching my favorite sport. 🏒🦅

Goals for 2020 — eat consciously and responsibly, exercise and meditate daily, get back to productive writing & painting, help people, be kind, learn new things, have fun.
🏃🏽♀️🥗🍎🥕🥦🏊🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️
R106 Goals — I’m trying something new this round. I’ve counted calories daily for years, through ups and downs, and have admitted to myself that it’s obsessive and not necessarily productive. This round I’m trying to simply eat when hungry and to mindfully choose mostly what I know is healthful. I’m going to weigh in only on the first and final days this round, but I will check in daily. Thanks for indulging me.

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 - 181.2
I can see that not recording what I eat will be a struggle, I’ve been doing it for so long (even while gaining back some of what I’d lost), but I’m starting to work my way through The Intuitive Eating Workbook to see if I can stop snacking and otherwise eating stupidly, and stop letting food and calories control me. So no more weighing until 3/7 and no tracking this round. I know that’s not the point of this challenge, but this group is so supportive and inspiring, I want to hang out with you. 🎟
2/28 - 179.6
Old habits — I weighed myself before I thought about it. Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
2/29 - —
I went out for lunch with a friend yesterday and still feel the sodium this morning — rings won’t come off. But that meal did me for the rest of the day, so not all bad I guess. I’m flushing myself out with lots of water and normal sodium today. Happy Leap Day, everyone!
3/1 - —
3/2 - —
I’m managing not to step on the scale, but it’s hard — such a habit! I had a good weekend in terms of food (no idea about calories, but I felt “lighter”), and took a nice walk yesterday. It’s warmed up, but now we expect a few days of rain. Oh well!
3/3 - —
I’m slowly adjusting to not recording everything and not obsessing. Feeling good. I confess though that I’m curious to see if I lose this experimental round!
3/4 - —
Just like the bunny, I’m still going?
3/5 - —
Oddly enough, while I’m not tracking my food, my snacking has decreased to, well, none other than air-popped popcorn in the evening. No idea whether I’ve lost any weight, but I feel less hungry. Hmmm.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/27: 181.4 (The scale is going down very slowly this week. I ate to plan and did some weight lifting and more spinning. The thing I forgot about spinning after a long hiatus is how much your butt hurts sitting on that hard saddle! I had to go to a sporting goods store after the gym and buy one of those cushions! Let’s hope the tush doesn’t hurt as much today!)
02/28: 179.6 (Yes! Back down to losing weight again! This is living proof that if you go off the rails, you could lose all that weight and more if you go back to it! A new low for me in 2020. I did a dance class on YouTube and ate to plan!)
02/29: 180.0 (My father in law took my husband and I out to our birthdays last night to an Italian restaurant. He was out of town and wanted to celebrate. Plus it’s my husbands birthday tomorrow. I did not workout since it’s my rest day.)
03/01: 181.4 (I had the best day celebrating my hubby’s birthday with our friends. I made some fried rice and chicken teriyaki at his request. I had another rest day yesterday and ate to plan!)
03/02: 182.0 (Celebrated the hubby’s birthday yesterday! I did my YouTube dance workout and ate to plan! I’m excited to get back to the actual gym today!)
03/03: 180.6 (TOM came 4 days early yesterday afternoon! My cycle has been all over the place. I did a Zumba class yesterday and ate to plan. I made breakfast for dinner last night and had some waffles that were super delicious!)
03/04: 180.2 (I had a decent day! I was a bit ravenous after the gym that I had 100 calories worth of Pringle’s while I made dinner. I still had a loss though, so I’m happy!)
03/05: 179.8 (I did a spin workout yesterday and some weight training. I’m enjoying this new workout plan because I can listen to my favorite crime podcasts! I love seeing these drops!)

Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 159.2 lbs 1050 calories, 10,000 steps, fatigue, back pain, nausea, Physical therapy today
02/28 160.4 1751 calories, 8000 steps, physical therapy was a waste of time, I got a heat pack for ten minutes and went over exercises that I had already been doing before this last month of back pain. No massaging, nothing. But come back twice a week so I can take your money. Ummm... I made another appointment with the doctor today, which is 90 miles of driving again. If I don't get an MRI and something to get me through the weekend........ I gave into tears from pain and ate two rows of girl scout cookies.
02/29. 159.2lbs. MRI today.
03/01. 159.6 lbs. 2500 calories, 6000 steps spent four driving to mri but met my daughter and she took me out for supper and we splurged on desserts. So this number will continue to go up for another day. Restarting this month, hoping to find out what’s wrong with back, get some pain control and take back my life.
03/02 160.0 lbs 1085 calories, 7500 steps
03/03 160.2 1375 calories, 19500 steps. Back is better but loss is hard with no IF because of eating breakfast with pain pills in the morning. Hard to keep calories to 1000 for loss.
03/04 160.6 lbs 1136 calories, 18,500 steps. So my stomach the last couple days are not liking the pills plus I keep gaining no matter how much exercise. So going off the pills to fix my stomach. Ugh!
03/05 160. 0 lbs 1036 calories, 15,200 steps. IF 16 hours. So I ended up taking the pill at noon and continuing with them because my back started getting worse. Another side effect is water retention. Stomach is still not happy on this diet. No MRI results yet.

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27: 144.0 (+1.4) – Water, salt, digestive issues. Calories were not over but did drink and it was salty food. It’s going to be a challenging few days with social stuff last night, tonight, Fri and Sat. I am really going to have to bank calories during the day and exercise.
2/28: 143.8 (-.2) – Going to try to run today – gotta burn some cals heading into a busy social weekend. Happy FriYay all…..Looking forward to March and some spring like weather. In TX that could be 50 or 90 😎
2/29: 142.0 (-1.8) – This can’t be correct but I weighed 4 times with and without an 8 lb dumb bell and resetting the scale. Also, I purposely only had a 300 cal protein bar at lunch yesterday and saved my calories for dinner at 7 so I ate most of them back late! I will see them tomorrow or Monday as I am out tonight as well at Make-A-Wish Fundraiser with Barbecue/drinks. Back on track tomorrow. Happy Leap Year y’all!🤩
3/1: 142.0 (0) – Didn’t check the scale….just going with it. Plan to run today to work off last night’s tacos, queso, chips and Tito’s. Happy March Fools Day y’all!🤘
3/2: 143.0 (+1.0) - This is what they call a “Burger and Fries” hangover! But it was good! I ate way under my cals though because it was a 2 pm gut bomb. Dinner was zucchini noodles and spinach. Looking for a sports med doc today to give me some direction on hip pain. In the mean time, I will have to focus on the calories in part of the equation! ➕➖➗✖
3/3: 142.6 (-.4) – Gym day then sports med doc to solve the “my hip hurts when I run” issue. Ate well yesterday. This should be a quiet week. Hope everyone in the US with a Super Tuesday primary gets to vote! ☮
3/4: 142.0 (-.6) – I ate ok yesterday but had to eat in the car due to doctors appt. so I didn’t eat it all. Came home and had cheese and crackers unplanned. Then I got a call from college daughter and it really stressed me out. She is struggling with post college decisions and I feel helpless knowing that its truly her journey and tried to reassure her that whatever she does, its just a step…a first step. Still had to have some wine after….😏🍷 Today is cardio medley because I can’t run just yet.
3/5: 143.0 (+1.0) – no idea why I am up but whatever….life is a little stressful these days. Hoping to get a long walk in since the weather is going to be awesome today. I need a gym break.

Round 104: Ended Feb 16 EW: DNW (travel)
Round 105: ended Feb 26 EW: 197.0 (-5.2, total loss from 2 rounds)
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 196.8 I feel heavy, so I’ll take this slight loss. Have been eating at a deficit, don’t have a good reason for feeling this way, but guess it’s part of the ups and downs of the journey.
02/28 196.6 slow change, I’ll take it.
02/29 196.0 yes! Finally some bigger movement. Yesterday was almost all greens and meat, very few grains, protein bars, etc. I think that always helps.
03/01 DNW (away from scale). But had a good day for habits—tracked, exercised, figured out my meal plan for the week (which will include travel) and my grocery list
03/02 197.4 You can tell I didn’t like the number because I didn’t post right away this morning. But holding myself accountable and posting now. Figuring that number has got to be sodium and/or hormones! Have been eating under calorie targets for more than a week.
03/03 196.0 Ok a day of pounding water paid off to wash the sodium out. After another of many days eating below target, I feel like I “deserve” slightly better results than just returning back to where I was, but I’ll roll with it. Just keep my habits tight and concentrate on behavior; the results will come.
03/04 196.2 seems like this is my weight for awhile. Time to add a new element to my routine it seems. After my trip!
03/05 DNW—travel
03/06 DNW—travel

Hi. My name is Trina.
Trying to make it though til the end of radiation without getting frustrated or going up anymore. I'm assuming at least some of the scale shenanigans are treatment related and I'm trying not to let it get into my head, because once it gets into my head, bad food choices will also become part of the problem. Hugs to everyone else who is frustrated! We've got each other's back!

RGW Less!
Day/Weight/Comment:
02/27 - 141.5 -- Low calorie yesterday and lots of working out. My shoulder is really aching from radiation position induced impingement. I'm sure that is not helping my loss. Also added in strength workouts to the walking I've been doing.
02/28 - 143 -- Ate bread yesterday...but completely within calories with room to spare. I'm just glad I'm 2 years in and more resilient than when I started, because this just sucks!
02/29 - 145 -- ????? Makes no sense.
03/01 - 142 -- I don't know what happened yesterday. Last night we went out to carb heavy dinner. I was within calories, but not necessarily with a huge number to spare. We will see what happens tomorrow.
03/02 141 -- The up and down is crazy!
03/03 139.5
03/04 140 -- Sorry. I have been weighing, but super busy with no time to check in. My sister is in town visiting and I have radiation every day. The real busy however, is rather crazy. A friend of mine invited me to a Cancer Event several weeks ago titled "Raising our Voices / Stories of Cancer told through Movement" as she had an extra free ticket. As it turned out, the event was an info session, and having taken advantage of the free tickets, we are now the performers! The performance will take place on March 14th and is a joint project of the Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater Company and the University of Alabama Institute for Arts In Medicine. We started rehearsal on Saturday and will rehearse every day for 2.5 hours for the next two weeks, during which time the directors will create a show which we will learn. It has been a blast! The group is a mix of cancer patients/survivors, cancer caregivers, and music/dance/theater students and professional dancers impacted by cancer. I feel like I won the golden ticket to play with the professional dance company and at the same time, like a pre-schooler in a dance class who thinks she looks like a beautiful ballerina on stage. We will be both singing and dancing on stage, and my bald head has won me a spot in the bald-headed trio--so two guys and I will have the stage to ourselves for the finale to one of the dances! It's definitely giving me a lot of movement in my day.
03/05 139 -- It's been raining all week. Luckily I have rehearsals to entertain me. I've been trying to be very intentional about the pre-dinner snack.

If you’re eating below that amount it could actually be working against you in your weight loss efforts as your body goes into “starvation mode”. Have you considered bumping up your intake by even 100-200 calories a day?
When I lost the first time in 2016, I just followed the recommended calories that MFP gave me (I weighed more so it started me at 1400, then dropped it as I lost). Since it worked then, I figured I would do the same this time. I do eat more when I exercise. I just add in the exercise calories. I am going to give it some more time and see what happens. I am really happy to just get back to at least 145 pounds. I have clothes in my closet I want to wear again.9 -

Day/Weight/Comment
Thursday, 02/27: 275.1 lbs (-0.3) … starting a round without a sizable uptick for once is a nice feeling. | Running: 10mins x 2 | Lifting |
Friday, 02/28: 274.9 lbs (-0.2) … I was fully expecting an uptick this morning. I was about 500 calories over budget and I ate quite a bit more food volume-wise than usual… but my trip to the gym yesterday seems to have countered that. That’s a good feeling. I’m going to try to recommit to going to the gym and running now. I’ve been slacking off for a while.
Saturday, 02/29: 276.2 lbs (+1.3) … Ran for 20 minutes on the treadmill today without much trouble. I decided that I’m going to go through the C25k program again, starting from W5D3, which is the first time you run for 20 minutes straight. Felt appropriate and having that structure should help me stick with my training. | Running: C25k W5D3 | Lifting: SS Workout A |
Sunday, 03/01: 276.1 lbs (-0.1) … Dating/relationship anniversary with my wife. We’ll have been together 18 years.
Monday, 03/02: 277.5 lbs (+1.4) … up again. I’ve been below budget, but made some salty/carby choices over the weekend. I’ve also recently started working out more so I’m guessing I have some water retention from that as well. Nothing I’m concerned about. Signed up for a 5k race on 4/25 and a 3.5 mile race in May. Also signed up for a step challenge at work that starts in a couple weeks, which should get me moving even more. | Running: C25k W6D1 | Lifting: SS Workout B |
Tuesday, 03/03: 275.0 lbs (-2.5) … nice whoosh this morning. My workout last night took a while and I was pretty beat afterward. Looking to be a beautiful day today outside… I’m going to enjoy my lunchtime walk this afternoon. In fact, the weather going forward seems to finally be getting warmer. I’m super excited about being able to run outside again… maybe tomorrow?
Wednesday, 03/04: 274.0 lbs (-1.0) … down a bit more today. Got a run in at lunchtime, outside for the first time this year. Felt great. Heading to the gym this evening. | Running: C25k W6D2 |
Thursday, 03/05: 275.9 lbs (+1.9) … The gym last night was frustrating, as it was super busy and the squat rack (which I needed for my workout) was in use the entire time I was there. Wound up going to the gym early this morning instead. It’s supposed to be 40ish by lunch time, so my lunch walk should be pleasant today. | Lifting: SS Workout A |

02/27 258.8 I was so sick yesterday I barely got out of bed, so this must be water retention from the chicken soup and crackers. Between the fall and getting sick it looks like Feb will be a wash. That’s okay though life happens, and I know all of this is water bounce up that will go once I’m eating properly again.
02/28 260.0 I ate low yesterday, so I guess this is from the day before or more water retention. I felt a lot better yesterday and over did things a bit so I’m going to try to take things easier today.
02/29 260.4
03/01 260.0
03/02 262.2 I continued to eat at maintenance for the weekend. I figured that since I’m cutting out my diet break from the first week of April it seemed like a good trade. Now it’s time to refocus and get back to where I was and then lower.
03/03 260.0
03/04 260.0
03/05 262.0 I’m going for a less aggressive weight loss in order to combat the afternoon hungries. Hopefully I can get them under control and stop the binging that’s leading to the up and down.

Round 105: No change
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 73.9 - Finally some movement. Period started yesterday which might explain why I have been ravenously hungry the last week! Calories were a little over yesterday but generally okay.
02/28 - 73.6 - Was exhausted yesterday, but eating was okay.
02/29 - 74.1 - Was expecting that, monthly lunch at work (aka the company buys us all lunch) and there was so much pizza. And then pizza left over. So because I wogged myself at lunch I ended up not being in the slightest bit hungry for dinner and didn't eat anything, so swings and roundabouts.
03/01 - 74.9 - Very hard judo session + salty Chinese for dinner = retaining oh so much water. I even feel puffy today. Drinking loads of water to make up for it and hopefully tomorrow will level me out.
03/02 - Was late this morning and forgot to weigh. Previous day was okay. Eating was a little all over the place as the day was very stressful, but overall was fine.
03/03 - 73.7 - Another solid day. Eating was a little over what I'd like, but then I went and did a very intense judo session, so I'm not feeling guilty about the situation as a whole. I still worked out below calories.
03/04 - 73.2 - Was not expecting a drop like that this morning. Don't get me wrong I'm very happy with it. Yesterday was good eating and came in under calories. Even actually practiced only serving out half of my dinner and then eating the 2nd half when I was hungry. Stopping when I'm full is something that I struggle with (especially if I've already logged it), so serving out less to begin with is something I'm trialing to calibrate my hunger cues.
03/05 - 73.1 - Down again? Nice! Solid day yesterday, even ate dessert and stayed under goal. I'm so glad I finished my very boring salad options for lunch as well, I should be back to my more interesting salad choices for today.

3/3 156.9 O miles I took a couple of weeks off posting to this challenge. I weighed most days but just bounced around 160 to 162. It was just 10 weeks of basically the same weight no matter my calories or workout schedule. I felt like a loser so I skipped out on you guys. I still tracked but didn't do the challenge. I still walked whenever possible and tried to stay within my goal. I'm not sure why but I seem to have broken through that barrier. I even had Vietnamese yesterday and didn't retain any water. WOOHOO! Hi everyone, I hope all is well. I'm going to get caught up on your stories.
3/4 158.2 0 miles I think yesterday was an anomaly. I've been sick for almost two weeks but I have to go to StLouis today and do a presentation tomorrow. I'm not 100% but I haven't had a fever in several days. I'm sad that I can't walk today since the weather is perfect. I'm falling a little behind on the walking schedule though I have a lot of time to make it up.
3/5 No Scale 0 miles Still trying to avoid talking until this afternoon's meeting. I'm feeling much better today though. I'm so glad tomorrow is Friday. I should be normal by Monday.9 -

02/27- 157.2 sigh. I'm only just back to where I finished at 2 rounds ago. I got a new digital scale so I'll see if it fluctuates like my old one. I'm not going to super obsess about it, because I don't have that much left to reach goal.
02/28- 156.4 Happy about this. Did 30 min of HIIT in the AM and walked 2 miles. Will try to be good on the weekend, but have drinks tonight.
02/29- 156.7- Rode Frosty since the ground was frozen.
03/01- 157.4- Ran 3.5 miles with Frosty since the gound was too wet to ride and walked another 2
03/02- 157.0- well that's not awful for a weekend. I'm always super active, but then I don't really track and eat a bunch of crap. It doesn't help I was ghosted yet again and I'm an emotional eater.
03/03- 158.0 WTH.. I guess that's the weekend. I stayed under calories yesterday, but ate a ton of cabbage soup. Maybe water weight, who knows. Just staying the course. Ran 2.5 miles yesterday with Frosty.
03/04- 156.4 better. I'm guessing that was water weight and salt from the cabbage soup. Tracking calories. It was donut breakfast at school for the youngest today, but I didn't eat the whole thing and I'll try to eat well the rest of the day. Ran 3 miles yesterday.
03/05- 154 I had leg cramps post ride and HIIT last night so I know I'm dehydrated and this is artificial. I won't freak out tomorrow when it's back up. Still, it's nice to see. Only 4 pounds to goal weight. Must drink more water.

Wow Trina, radiation every day! Yikes. How much longer do you have to keep doing that?
And yet you are still trying to stay on top of your weight!
How exciting about your upcoming show. All of that hair will grow back.
I notice that you lost weight after a carb heavy day. Maybe that is what your body needs, more carbs? I know that when I first joined MFP my carbs were very low (not on purpose, just eating habits) and when I started adding more carbs into my daily I began to lose weight. Everyone's body is different and needs different things. Maybe with what you are going through your body really needs carbs.
So glad that you check in and let us know how you are doing.
Big hugs!2 -
I just won a Fitbit from work for completing the Wellness Challenge! I'm so stinking excited, especially since I almost never win at drawings!13

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

02/27 120.0
02/28 121.0 Yesterday gym with Amy and out in the evening for live music. 163% of my step goal!
02/29 119.5 First time I’ve seen this number since pre-cruise weigh in in early December. Tomorrow Champagne brunch with dear friends.
03/01 120.5 Expected increase, I ate a tortilla and had a margarita at OMAD yesterday - steak fajitas, no beans or rice, subbed calabacitas and picked out 3 million pieces of corn. I hardly ate anything but this is what even “low” carbs do to me. I was definitely over my 20g carb limit. Probably will be today also but I won’t eat anything after brunch.
03/02 120.5. Life is good. Gym with Amy this afternoon.
03/03 120.5
03/04 120.0 Going to the movies to see The Invisible Man. Just got a message that our granddaughter #2 was accepted into the Masters design program at Iowa State! So exciting!
03/05 120.5 Yesterday we went to Cici’s pizza for lunch - ate one real slice and pizza in a bowl, then to movies where we had a FREE small popcorn. I ate most of it. We’ll see if I continue to bounce up in the next day or two.8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 365.8 - Small uptick. Found that if I use ACV before a high(er) carb meal will balance blood sugar levels and it seems to help w/ my weight. I've been doing a lot of research, especially those doctors and dieticians (not YouTube influencers) that have done real research.
02/28 - 365.8 - I think stress is really hurting my rest. Job hunting isn't going as well as I need and it's definitely taking it's toll.
02/29 - 364.5 - First time in days I got decent sleep... and the drop proves it. Also started weight-work w/ kettlebell and free weights.
03/01 - 364.3 - Ate a donut yesterday (lol). The first real cheat in weeks. Tasted way too sweet. But kept myself under on my calorie limit, so that's good. I'll take the minor drop.
03/02 - 364.0 - The downward trend continues. Only 3.6 lbs. short of making my DietBet challenge. Must be at 360.4 on March 17th.
03/03 - 362.0 - Wasn't too hungry yesterday. Actually got a huge chef salad (oil/vinegar dressing) and still had plenty of room for frozen yogurt and a protein bar before starting my fast again. Four days to go and already made my goal weight. Also went to the gym again. 45 minutes, 3.08 miles on the eliptical. And now 40, yes, FORTY lbs. down on my journey.
03/04 - 362.0 - No change is fine. I'm still where I wanted to be for this round, so anything more is just the proverbial cherry on top. I an nearing a weight I have not been under for 10 years, so I AM getting excited.
03/05 - 360.7 - Damn! I might see sub-360 sooner than I expected. As of today, i'm down 42 lbs. since I started this journey on Nov. 17th. I'm doing a Snoopy happy dance.
