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.
3/6 - —
It’s turned cold again, but my crocus are blooming. Spring is coming!

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 |
Friday, 03/06: | 273.7 lbs (-2.2) … Back down again with a new low weight. Got in a good run before work this morning. A bit chilly, but I have thermal running gear so it didn’t bother me at all. Down another jeans size, now fitting in 42’s. I’m very happy this morning. | Running: C25k W6D3 |

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.
3/6: 143.0 (same) – busy day yesterday. Ate well until the stress cookies but still under my calories. Went to a night yoga class to mix it up. It was a nice way to destress before bed and get away from the Coronavirus non-stop coverage, which leads to the ingestion of cookies .🍪🍪🍪

02/29 - I've had the worse week I've had since beginning MFP 12/27. Everything has felt off and I feel like I'm starting to go down a slippery slope. I'm going to try what worked a couple of rounds ago and try to hit every goal for just 5 days - so here goes:
✔️03/01 - Calories: 1125 / IF: 16.25 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 72oz / Veg/Frt: 4/2
✔️03/02 - Calories: 1334 / IF: 17.75 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 64oz / Veg/Frt: 4/2

✔️03/04 - Calories: 1486 / IF: 18.00 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min & free weights / H20: 72oz / Veg/Frt: 4/1
✔️03/05 - Calories: 1495 / IF: 16.00 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 64oz / Veg/Frt: 4/1 DID IT! Now to keep it up and start losing again!
It IS getting tiring being this rigid with tracking every goal, every day, but I was slipping badly for a couple weeks. I feel stronger in every way now so one more day to make it the five I committed to, then I'll keep going just not post every goal, every day.
It's time to weigh again Fri or Sat. I hope I'm at least back to where I started this round, HOWEVER, either way, this was more about my feeling out of control and catching it before I went back to my old ways!
03/06 - 174.5 - Reset! Now ready to start losing again!

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.
03/06 - 359.6 - OK, bigger damn! This is the first time since my dogs died and my depression really kicked in, that I've been under 360. That was early 2011... so 9 years. Also, I started getting dressed while standing up. Little triumphs. While the stress from job hunting is still present, this weight-loss journey is keeping my spirits buoyed.

2/28 - 187 - 22g carbs.
2/29 - DNW - IF/20.5hrs.43g carbs. Stevia update~ since mid February I've been using less stevia in coffee, some days none at all.
3/01 - DNW - IF/22hrs.
3/02 - IF/21.5 hrs.48g carbs.
3/03 - IF/15hrs. 43g carbs.
3/04 - IF/20hrs.17g carbs. I've been totally off kilter lately. No real appetite until late, no exercise and poor sleep because of this hip😕
3/05 - IF/20hrs. 123g carbs. That's a lot! Ate a 5 guys burger w/roll and fries. Stomach looked like I ate five actual guys! Lol. Felt like a huge rock in my gut. The end of my things I want to eat.
3/06 - 189 - IF/19hrs. 56g carbs. Three weeks of no exercise and eating starchy carbs almost everyday. Actually, everything has been off kilter. I have not been hungry all day some days or either don't know what to eat, then eat between 7-10pm. (All the DNW) Going through a period of being tired of cooking a meal for my family and then one for me each day. Slightly depressed over my hip pain and knee instability keeping me from exercising. Tried to start back a week ago, but didn't happen. Not sleeping well, mind too active. Having some underlying extended family concerns too. Nothing out of hand yet, but I gotta get it together. So sorry to have "disappeared" ❤

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.

02/28 121.0 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.
03/06 121.0 As predicted. Still under my goal. Yesterday was crazy! I was bitten by something (spider?) and noticed a bright red lump on my arm Tuesday night, bigger red lump Wednesday, called doc and got on antibiotics but had to see the nurse yesterday morning. It’s getting better. Then quick trip to buy shelf for freezer. Decided to defrost freezer before DH left for lunch ‘date,’ prepped LOTS of meat for freezer. DH appt with retina doc and haircut at daughter’s. Didn’t get home until after 6:30. It was a go, go, go day!8 -

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.
03/06 262.4 I’m going to try to up my protein to see if it helps the overly hungry feeling that’s been leading me to binge. Even with extra calories yesterday I was starving after dinner. I think I’m going to have to pay better attention to my food quality while my leg heals up.

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!)
03/06: 178.6 (Another new low for 2020! Just gotta get to 176 to get to my lowest weight in October 2019. I’m so so close. I did a spin workout and some weight training. I also ate to plan!)

Day/Weight/Comment
02/26 …..195.5….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
02/27 …..195.5 ….. Good day yesterday but too busy today. Good luck everyone this round!
02/28 …..195.8 ….. I had dinner at DD#2 last night and some glorious time with my DGS #4. She tries to keep it a bit more carb and calorie conscious for me which is very thoughtful. Not as on plan as at home but not too bad. I am unsure of exact calories & carbs, info too sketchy when I’m not sure of exact recipe, but overall didn’t seem too bad. I walked with my son at school during conferences since school was open. A little slower as he is not used to it, about 3.0 mph but I was proud of him. My total calorie burn for 110 minutes was 597. I walked 18,119 steps for the day, 7.67 Total Miles, burned 2839 Total Calories. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 47 minutes and only woke up once! An average day overall.
02/29 …..198.6 ….. I really blew it when out with a friend. Got in my walk but I ate back 80% of the calories and the carbs were through the roof. And I only ate ½ my dinner and brought the other half home for my son! I deserve every bit of this. My walk was 93 minutes. Feeling weak and unprepared. Uggg.
03/01 …..199.8 ….. Absolutely no excuses except for the fact that if I am not 100% perfect and on target with every single morsel on this low-carb plan, I gain. However, it does seem to be what is best for my T2D. I just get tired of the continuous "failures" at every turn of everyday life. I'm going to keep fighting.
03/02 …..201.6 ….. Emergency Unexpected Travel yesterday for me & my son. I arrived back last night. Diet plan & exercise out the window. I am only grateful that my scale number isn’t worse. However, I don’t like being back in the 200 club that I worked so hard to graduate from. I’ll be very mindful today.
03/03 …..201.6 ….. A very good day yesterday in walking and food until I ate the large bowl of cereal last night. I haven’t had a bowl of cereal in 2 years and I have to say, it was good. The cravings are horrendous after a lapse so I am trying hard to get through that. It had very little to do with hunger. We still have a ton of snow here so no outside activity. I sure wish there was a gym nearby but it’s Amish country here. Just farms and cabins. Thank goodness the school lets us old folks walk the hallways in the evenings! Last year we had snow through May. The largest blizzard being 10 inches of snow. In fact, it has been snowy until June for many years now. However, I am still hoping for a normal spring (by Easter) that lasts. I am sleeping again in the 4 hour range for the past few days. This is the norm for me but keeps me at a 20 hour waking window of eating. I am using IF for at least 12:12 right now but it's still a very long day without food. I continue to try careful planning. Last night after walking I did some more prep cooking.
03/04 …..200.8 ….. Yay! Finally a drop of almost a pound. A great day yesterday. I preplanned meals and got in a bit of walking at the school. I even got 6 hours & 5 minutes of sleep.
03/05 …..200.6 ….. Being Mindful. Walked at the school. Had 2 oldest grandsons over after school for dinner & dessert. I was at the high end of my cals & carbs, but I managed to stay just under. Still feeling strong.
03/06 …..200.3 ….. Clearly I won’t make goal to be less than the end of last round, but on a downward trend and feeling pretty strong lately. Rolling with it! Another good walk yesterday inside the school, 37 carbs, 1247 calories. Over 15,000 steps, Over 6 miles, Almost 2800 calories burned. Over 500 extra calories burned with exercise. Still sleeping in the 4 hour range for the past few nights which I know doesn’t help . Busy day today but I’ll be walking today for sure since the school is closed on the weekends. I hardly pee'd yesterday so I will be trying to drink more water today.

02/27 - 188.2 not feeling very well today, my supervisor yelled at me for no reason today for 45 minutes and it made me feel so bad about myself I got sick and threw up in our bathroom. I asked why he's cancelled all of our meetings for the past 6 months, because I was worried something was up, and he just like, transformed into a different person and yelled at me for implying he wasn't invested or interested in his "subordinates." He sent me a bunch of angry emails afterwards and I am freaking out trying to figure out how to move forward. I can't believe my one sentence question that I thought was pretty reasonable/innocent created such a hurricane of anger
02/28 - 187.6 still haven't responded to any emails, kind of worried my working relationship with this person is destroyed even though I really don't think I did anything wrong. At least my weight is down, which is nice, but it might just be from being so sick. Got sick again later today and threw up again. Broke keto so I could eat some crackers to try to settle my stomach
02/29 - 188 still very nauseated, still haven't responded to the emails. Trying to figure it out. Trying to focus on having a nice weekend but it's hard because I'm kind of terrified of work next week. Didn't exercise again today, feel too ill, but trying to stick to my diet as best as I can. I really want to break through this 188 barrier, I've been coasting here for months
03/01 - 190.5.. Not sure why my weight shot up overnight. Maybe it's an overreaction to keeping all my food down again. Finally started feeling better and got lots of exercise today building a fence, digging, laying cinderblocks, etc. Nervous to work again tomorrow
03/02 - 190.. slightly down, which is good, but I wish it were more down, I really don't want to end this challenge with a gain, especially a mystery gain. Was very good about my diet, did some exercise, and my boss apologized to me. I still feel bad about it and dont really trust our professional relationship, but it was nice that he did some reflection and gave me a heartfelt apology (via email... hahah). Hoping to be back down again tomorrow
03/03 - 187.9! Wow, super down. OK, at least the diet is working again Got a lot of exercise in today and did a good job of sticking to my diet. Got lots of work done too but got a huge migraine around 6PM that basically robbed my entire night. Missed dinner and spending time with my partner. These migraines have been more and more frequent, it's very frustrating.
03/04 - 188.4.. back up! This has been a bit of a roller coaster challenge for me hahah. Feeling nauseated again today, but my head feels good so so far so good. Doing well on my diet and at work today and I went to the gym for the first time this week. So I'm going to call today a win even though it's still early
03/05 - 187.2! The smallest number I've seen on a scale in years! Yeehaw! I'd like to keep up this momentum, I really want to break through the 188 barrier I've been stuck at for what feels like months now - correction, now that I've checked my logs, has been two months and one week! Going to be extra strict about my diet, really focus on getting my exercise in, and not let myself give in to temptation. I've been so happy with my progress that I've let myself cheat here and there, but it really adds up. I told myself it was okay because I wasn't really gaining weight, at least not more than a pound or two, but now seeing how I haven't really made progress in 2 months, I see that those cheats really do make a big impact.
03/06 - 188... womp womp. I was so excited to weigh in today, because I had a really powerful craving for McDonalds yesterday, and rather than give in, I made myself go home and make a healthy keto meal. But I am back up to my challenge start weight, so that is disappointing. I'm trying not to let this demotivate me from fighting off my cheat cravings, but it's hard. Easier to keep them at bay when the scale is moving in the right direction! I'm hoping this is just water retention or something, but who knows. I'm reassessing my calorie needs today and focusing on tracking more closely for now

Round 106 - Feb.27 to March 7
Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 164.4, GW – 163 something, UGW – 140.
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, see if I can complete my tracking every day and get to the gym 3x a week and not eat back the cals. Getting some exercise the non-gym days would be a great bonus.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 164.8
02/28 – 164.6
02/29 – 165 – Totally deserve this after a chocolate fest last night. Last couple of days have been great for getting things done but probably eating at maintenance so not sure how quickly I’ll get it down.
03/01 - 165
03/02 – 164.8- Completed tracking and stuck to IF.
03/03 – 164.8 – Decided to allow myself an apple after a very long practice last night but didn’t eat anything else. Completed tracking and right on target.
03/04 – 164.8 – IF – yes. Tracking – mostly, expect it was very close.
03/05 – 165.2 – Bought frozen soup for a quick supper after shopping and think it was loaded with salt. Some snacking in evening but did track all and was only 57 cals. over.
03/06 – 165.6 – Finished the salty soup for lunch and then made quiche again for supper as DH was away. Did not track everything but kept my portions moderate. I feel like I had too much fat; had a boughten scone with the soup – very good, but much bigger than homemade and likely much higher fat. Off to the gym this a.m. and planning a high veggie supper.

Round 106:
Female, 58 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 105 lbs and BF 23% (or lower, we’ll see :-) (Expect to reach goal weight in March-September)
STG: reach 105 - or - at least maintain below 108 and reduce BF%!
Goals for 10 Day Challenge: reach previous low of 106.2. Ideally keep WT<107.0, BF <25.5%
EW Round 105: 107.2, BF% 25.3
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 108.0 , BF 25.5%
02/28 107.2, BF 25.3%
02/29 107.2, BF 25.1%
03/01 107.2, BF 25.1%
03/02 107.0, BF 25.2% Catching up! Weight stayed stable over the weekend which is great!!!! Ran/walked 1.5 miles this morning and then spin class.
03/03 105.6, BF 24.8% Woot Woot! While this is a whoosh and will likely bounce up again, excited to see a new low and the first dip into the 105’s (and BF below 25% if scale can be believed - does agree with other measurements though)!!!! Today is heavy training day - yoga followed by strength in the morning and then spin after work. Starting Stage 8 of “Strong” (updated NROLW) today!
03/04 104.4, BF 24.5% Long Term GOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL !!!!! a second whoosh but thrilled to see this number!!!! Officially going to enter the challenge of maintenance and recomp - but knowing my past, this is going to be bouncy so will need the daily accountability of this challenge! Going to increase calories to maintenance level and hold off eating back exercise calories to ease into the transition and see how that goes. Dinner out for work tonight so anticipate between that and the double whoosh to see an increase tomorrow….
03/05 105.8, BF 24.8% Expected bounce after a whoosh and dinner out!
03/06 106.4, BF 25.0% Bounce again. All within usual range of variability. Will probably take a couple of weeks to settle down so that 105 is the “average”. If CI/CO are accurate should still be losing some of this over time.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 – 169.2 – There’s the drop I was looking for yesterday. All goals met!
02/28 – 169.2 – Added two new strength exercises to my gym routine today. Went to the local sushi place for lunch. Their dumpling soup is delicious but seems to have a day’s worth of sodium in it. Still, it was the perfect thing for a cold, windy day.
02/29 – 169.8 – No surprise, given that I was over on sodium and calories yesterday. Today was much better – enjoyed time with my grandsons and met all my goals!
03/01 – 169.8 – All goals met.
03/02 – 169.0 – Great day to walk outdoors! All goals met Swamped with work, so my participation in this forum has been pretty erratic. I’ll catch up – soon, I hope
03/03 – 169.0 – Busy day, but I walked outdoors before the rain moved in and met my calorie and hydration goals.
03/04 – 169.8 – Late salty dinner may be to blame, but no worries. I’ve been meeting my goals, so the scale will eventually give me credit.
03/05 – 168.8 – Nice to be moving back down. This has been a ridiculously hectic week, so I skipped the gym today to get some work done. I was due for a rest day anyway. Met my other goals and looking for a strong finish to this round.
03/06 – 168.4 – Chilly morning, so back to the gym. Had a great workout and earned my Shake Shack lunch. Way over on sodium but under my calorie goal, so I may see a bounce tomorrow,

Day | Weight | Change | Comment
02/27 | 134.0kg | -0.9kg | Still getting fed up with the daily fluctuations so I decided to try using the Happy Scale app to smooth those fluctuations. My actual weight today was 133.7kg but Happy Scale tells me that my moving average weight is 134.0kg so that feels like a more correct amount to me. I'll be putting the Happy Scale moving average weight as my measurement each day and see how that goes. I drank a lot of water yesterday, starting to think that's a key for me. I did eat some unhealthy foods but surprisingly it fit within my calorie limit - probably due to the smaller dinner size I had! Did 15 mins of walking, wanted to get on the stationary bike but my sister called so I was on the phone to her for a while and then it was too late to get started. Will aim for more movement again today and definitely keep up the water!
02/28 | 133.6kg | -0.4kg | Actual scale read 132.9kg - haven’t seen that number in a long time so glad to see the moving average coming down. Did 10 mins of walking and 20 mins on the bike so feeling good about that. Today we have the memorial for a friend who passed away in a tragic farm accident so I don’t expect to do any exercise or control my calories today. I know I should, but I think there are more important things today.
02/29 | DNW | Early start for a day trip with over 7 hours of driving plus shopping etc. so I forgot to jump on the scale when I got up at 4:30am!
03/01 | 133.5kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.7kg. Long, long day in the car yesterday but I didn’t eat a lot. Drank a couple of sugary drinks (frozen coke was amazing!) but drank a LOT of water so hopefully not too much water retention. My feet/ankles were very puffy when we got home last night so I was expecting a much higher read today. Glad I drank so much water, will keep that up today.
03/02 | 133.6kg | +0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.9kg. Trending upward, which I'm not surprised about. Like fmfdfa2020 I will focus on hitting my goals for the next 5 days - thanks for the inspiration!
03/03 | 133.7kg | +0.1kg | Actual scale read 134.2kg. Hectic day at work so I didn't even get a chance to post, letalone read through all the posts I've missed! I'll try to catch up over the next few days.
Calories: Didn't finish tracking, but would have been over target around maintenance level | Exercise: 15/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 6/5 serves
03/04 | 133.6kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.4kg. Another hectic day at work - barely left my desk all day and stayed back for an hour just to try to get on top of everything. Should be better after today, month-end should be completed (on time) and I should be back to normal! Getting some of these goals hit which is good, just need to find time to track everything!
Calories: DNT | Exercise: 5/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 5/5 serves
03/05 | 133.5kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.2kg. Just had an average day yesterday. Wasn’t especially hungry most of the day and ate a smaller portion than I normally would for dinner so that was a win. No exercise though.
Calories: DNT | Exercise: 0/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 5/5 serves
03/06 | 133.3kg | -0.2kg | Actual scale read 132.9kg. Stayed home from work with a headache yesterday. So not a lot of movement and most likely too many calories. I did stick with a smaller portion for dinner though, so that was a small win for me. That seems to be working for me, and I'm glad.
Calories: DNT | Exercise: 0/15mins | Water: 2/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 2/5 serves
03/07 | 133.0 | -0.3kg | Actual scale read 132.6kg. Kind of busy day at work yesterday. Did some lunges and yoga for a challenge I’m in at the moment, but that’s all. Made homemade pizzas for dinner and ate far to much and drank a couple of beers. So I have no explanation for this dip but I don’t expect it to stick around!
Calories: DNT | Exercise: 15/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 3/5 serves
ROUND SUMMARY
Down 1.6kg for the round! Admittedly I did finish up at the end of the last round but I still would have a loss so I’m happy with that. I’m liking the Happy Scale app, making me feel better about these daily fluctuations.
See you all in Round 107!11 -
Ready for round 106 {43rd for me}
OSW 88KG
RSW 60.7 kg (-27.3 kg) or {60.2lbs}
Maintenance wasn't a great success so back on it.
02/27 60.7kg. Back to the grind!
02/28 60.0kg and I'm planning a good weekend without temptation
02/29 59.3kg back below 60! Daughters birthday party today (birthday is in August!) but I'm not tempted to nibble.
03/01 59.55kg. I wasn't tempted by the party food but I did have wine later so this will probably bounce up tomorrow. Its a new month so I'm going to be back on the losing game and see where I can end up in 31 days.
03/02 60.15kg expected bounce. Now back to what I know works
03/03 60.0kg despite a heavy dinner. This looks promising. Public holiday here today so a nice lie in and gym later.
03/04 60.0kg...I'm getting there and gym was good
03/05 60.0kg...crazy amounts of exercise yesterday and calories under so I should get the benefit soon.
03/06 60.1kg. Surprised there was no drop but its OK. Means I'll have to strap on track at the weekend
03/07 59.85kg...finally back under 60kg. Yesterday I wasn't hungry at dinner so I didn't eat. Enjoying a day off from the gym.
Total loss this round 0.85kg {1.9 lbs}

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. A good day.
03/06 134.4 – no walking yesterday, spent day travelling up to and with DD and 2 adorable little Dgs, hence 198 calories, 52 carbs & 8 fat over macros, but SO worth it !!
03/07 133.6 - 9.77 miles walked, 584 calories in credit, all other macros in green. Ended the round exactly the same as the last, I suppose all things considered that's not bad. See you all in the next round.
