JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 130 (round 60 for me ) I'm in for another round – I really need the accountability! As always, thank you @GrandmaJackie such a brilliant champion particularly in these unprecedented & unsettled times, helping keep some stability in our lives, for setting up these challenges.
Female age 62 5' 4” - Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !
Challenge for this round will be to get back into 133s. Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference!
Spoiler
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind & follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

10/25 - 72.6
10/26 - 72.7 - Now you can just stop it. After the week I've had I should be much lower than this. I maintained a nice average deficit of just over 500kcals per day last week, so by rights I should be down 0.5kg, not up by that amount. *Sigh*. I mean I _know_ it's probably hormone related fluctuations. And I know if I stick to the course it'll go away. But it doesn't stop it from being frustrating you know. And it's causing my trend weight to climb. I'm not sure it's going to get to my target unless I stop holding onto that weight pronto! However, I did measure myself yesterday, and in general it looks like my measurement are trending downwards. Bust is very much looking like it's going to get back to my "normal" sizing first as it only has half an inch before it gets there. Waist isn't doing fabulous, but is finally consistently down below my top marker. Hips seem to be staying high, I'm not overly upset about that. My final measurement that I like to take is my left thigh, as I find that it's less prone to fluctuations compared to the others, and yep, it's been a steady downwards slope, so that's a happy one. Overall I'm feeeling slimmer. My clothes are fitting a little better/looser so I'm feeling more optimistic than my scale weight would suggest.
10/27 - 72.7 - Marathon not sprint, marathon not sprint, marathon not sprint. Damn it. Still waiting for that drop. Yesterday I was just over maintenance. Not a fabulous day eating wise. I ended up getting a doughnut mid afternoon because I just did not pack enough for lunch. Not making that mistake today. I have a bigger lunch and so shouldn't feel quite a hungry. Also had cake in the evening as well. In general not the best eating day.
10/28 - 72.1 - YES! Finally! I knew that whoosh would come at some point I'm happy it's finally here. We'll have to wait and see if it stays this low, or if it settles higher (If it jumps back up to where it was again tomorrow I swear I'm going to kill someone). A good day eating yesterday too. Or rather actually it was an odd day eating yesterday. I got to 11:30 without feeling hungry so I didn't have my breakfast (as I normally have lunch around 12) and then I was HUNGRY for the next half an hour, but pushed through. I wasn't going to eat lunch early just because of that, besides, I think it was just my brain remembering that food exists. Anyway, I ended up being a little hungry later in the day so I ate my breakfast then, and then wasn't that hungry for dinner. So I skipped what I was going to have and had a much lighter dinner instead. So ended up around level with my goal which is unusual during the week, but very much a good thing. Here's to today!

Hi, I’d like to join please.
I am seeking to maintain (or drop a small amount) and find that I need the discipline of daily weighing to stay on track. I use Happy Scale to record my weight and will post actual weight in kg and the trend direction.

Round 130: DAY FIVE
Starting weight: 335.2
Aim: lose 1.3lbs (333.9)
Goals: weigh in every day and also post calories for the previous day
10/24: 335.9 (yesterday cals = 1652) - disappointing but sticking with it. Obviously...
10/25: 335.2 (yesterday cals = 1601) - down a bit, which is good, but god it's slow.
10/26: 335.2 (didn't count) - that's good that it's going down. Keep at it!
10/27: 335.2 (yesterday cals = 1302) - I seem to be stuck on this weight, but it's good to hold steady I guess!
10/28: 334.2 (yesterday cals = 1345) - so good to see the scales come down, yay!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24 180.4 Pretty proud of myself for yesterday’s self-control. I took my grand baby to a little mountain town fairly close to us yesterday after work for a walk on the greenway. While the greenway is wonderful, as most little mountain towns are this one is full of fudge, candy, and ice cream. I had none! Then when trying to find a place to eat, I left one place because there was literally nothing but junk food (fried stuff or high calorie options) on the menu and went to a place where I could get a better choice. (It was just along our walk, so no one noticed.) This is the kind of self-control it takes for me to be successful, and my body really wanted the ice cream or rich dessert. I just have to say no to this stuff right now. And I did!
10/25 179.2 Yes! Into a new decade in the right direction for a change!
10/26 180.6 It’s OK. It had been straight down for a week, so it was time for a blip up. Weight loss isn’t linear, and I know that. I pulled a meal out of the freezer for early dinner last night before a Halloween event. It was not one that I had carefully calorie/content controlled, so that is probably to blame, too. I was careful with portion control and did really well not being overwhelmed by the Halloween candy all around at the event. I also walked a ton because the event was “Boo at the Zoo,” so I pushed a baby stroller all over the place at the zoo.
10/27 180.2 Good day yesterday. Stayed within calories and got in a walk. Headed back down, so that’s good.
10/28 179.6 Hoping to stay in this decade for a bit now. I was afraid our meal out last night might interfere with getting back down into the 170s, but I walked stairs (lots of them) at work yesterday and got in two walks, then i figured out how to make my favorite meal at this restaurant fit into the day and asked them to leave off the creamy sauce. It was still yummy. Hubby likes to go here a lot, especially while the weather is still nice--they have such a nice outdoor space. I'm glad I found a solution that doesn't undo my hard work. Gotta keep at it though in hopes of not going back up to that other number.

SW 126.2 (April 14th, 2020)
Highest lifetime weight: 138 lbs. August 2011
Goal Weight: 110
Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4 ->115 ->113 -> 113
Goal weight for this round: Staying around 113 or dropping to 112 would be nice.
Another goal: Embrace the scale fluctuations and not get flustered.
Previous days10/24 I was a delinquent and didn’t post on the 23rd and 24th.
10/25 114 because of Chinese food last night and eating pattern mish mashed a bit. I’m very happy with the most recent rounds results. I saw the 112 range and was thrilled. This round will be a little challenging because it’s usually where my weight spikes the highest… but we shall see. I would love to maintain around 113. It’s been a busy few days and I went into the office on Friday, so Friday morning I didn’t have a chance to pop in here. Friday was unexpectedly more busy than planned because I ended up going to a restaurant with outdoor dining for the first time since March with a couple of my coworkers. It felt so weird but normal. Then, after doing that I still had to pick up our CSA which moved to a new night. So, it’s just been busy.
Today, has been busy as well, I started by prepping a bunch of Aji Dulce peppers for the freezer. We ordered 5# of them from our csa farm to store for the winter, which took a couple hours to wash and slice them all up. Then, I ate breakfast and did a few things. Afterwards my husband and I took a walk around the neighborhood and got a little lost and walked 6 miles by the time we got home. When we got home, I heated up my takeout leftovers for lunch and then got to work on prepping 3# of mushrooms that we got form our CSA farm as well. I sauteed them in a tiny bit of butter, let them cool and popped it in freezer bags to use in the future. Then, I made our dinner: stuffed butternut squash with sausage, onion, mushroom, apple, cranberries, and sage. It’s baking in the oven now and I can’t wait to eat it! I don’t know if my husband will love it because the squash is not his favorite vegetable. So, we shall see! Have a good Sunday night everyone!
10/26 Did not post
10/27 113.8 I’ll happily take it 😊 I made lamb stew for dinner last night and it was so yummy and so simple in the pressure cooker. I didn’t get any exercise in because I just didn’t make time for it after bringing our kitty to the vet with a kitty cold. He’ll be ok but was just sneezing a lot, so they wanted to check him out. Today, I do plan on doing a 20-30 minute spin bike video during my lunch!
10/28 Did not weigh yet (husband goes back to sleep in the living room after I wake up to get ready for work at 6 AM and that area is the only level spot in the apartment. The bathroom has uneven tile and the bedroom has carpet). So, I’ll weigh later this morning when he wakes up. Last night I made a kale salad with olive oil, lemon juice, fresh corn from the cob, and chili lime seasoning, Then, pork chops with an apple cider glaze for the main dish, which was super yummy. I also roasted potatoes and Romanesco (it looks like spiky green cauliflower) to go with it and had some homemade thick apple sauce (almost like a healthier version of apple butter) on the side.

10/24 174.2 I made it to the overweight range on the BMI chart! When I get to my first goal of 160 lbs I plan on reevaluating it and deciding how much more I want to lose. Honestly I never thought I would get this far. Happy to say I've stuck to it and I don't plan on stopping!
10/25 174.6 I have an abscessed tooth. I cant get into a dentist until tomorrow and this is the most pain I've ever been in. I can handle a lot of pain but when it comes to my teeth I am the world's biggest baby. The only thing I ate yesterday was mac n cheese. Probably a bump bc of the carbs? Idk. I'm not worried about calories til this thing gets fixed lol.
10/26 175.0 I'm not sure why it's going up. I haven't been able to eat much of anything the last 2 days. I'm going to a dentist today.
10/27 174.6 I went to the dentist yesterday but he wasn't able to pull my tooth because it was still too swollen. It's feeling a little better today, thankfully. Hoping I will be able to eat some real food soon lol
10/28 174.8 I was able to eat yesterday and I definitely did! Too much probably and I didn't track any calories. I refuse to let this stupid tooth halt my progress so I'm back on track today.

10/27 159.6 Note to self, don't make home made bread! I really want to clear by food stores by the end of the month and I had this packet bread. Not even that brilliant but I had two slices yesterday and another this morning. I think I'll freeze it and use it up slowly. I've a food delivery on Thursday so I'll take off the bread I've ordered. This frozen bread will last at least two weeks.

I don’t know if this is okay or not! But I want to change my weight goal for the round! I don’t want to make it about the number. And also since my goal is to lose 10 lbs. by next October, I think that is okay? So I am going to put a range in there instead. I hope that is okay!
My main goal is not to be elated or devastated by the scale. It has been a very long, emotionally painful journey with my weight, all of my life. I want so badly to escape my food addiction. I never want to be 338lbs. again but I know it could very well happen. I don’t want to be 115lbs. again because at that weight I was losing my hair and I was sick all of the time and exercising four hours a day, eating less than 800 calories. I just want moderation!
This daily weigh-in has been a good discipline. Hard to get too excited or upset over the scale when one sees how much fluctuation happens regardless of my caloric intake and exercise.
I limit myself to a manageable 3.5 mile run each day, a 20 min morning workout and a 10 minute bedtime workout. And I eat 1,200 6 days a week and 3,600 one day a week. (My high-protein day). No added sugar. No meat.

10/28 - 153.4 - Had a carb heavy lunch and dinner, but not as bloated as I expected I'd be, though feeling a slight bit of the heaviness that comes after a carby dinner. Heaviness is not as bad as usual, though. Still don't understand why I'm up but feeling/looking less bloated. Oh well. Fasted 16.5hrs yesterday and hoping for 17-18hrs today as that will put me at a late lunch. Shouldn't be too difficult to pull off (: Still rainy and cold here and I'm hating it. I moved to Texas to get warmer weather and yesterday, it was warmer in my hometown in NWIndiana than here! Not fair hahah I'm feeling like a nap may happen today, but that could also be me just waking up and still being groggy. Stayed up last night to watch World Series so my own fault. Looks like its going to be a boring day here, so may do some yoga if I have enough energy once I wake up more. Definitely going to focus on pushing more water, I've been slacking off quite a bit. Still close to goal, but not as intentional about it which is where things have the opportunity to turn ugly and then I'm fighting getting back to goal.

Previous Day's Comments10/24 - DNP
10/25 - Weighed yesterday but didn't have a chance to post. Didn't weigh in this morning because I kept chugging water through the night and I felt it'd be an inaccurate reading. Should be a quiet day with football today. If not, I'll make it a quiet day for myself and let the others go be crazy. Haven't been sleeping in the mornings well. Went to bed around midnight and woke up at 4 (yesterday I went to bed at about 930-10 and woke up at 1:40am). Hopefully tonight is much better
10/26 - Ribs and salty sides - holding on to a lot of water it seems. Got a nice walk in yesterday with the pup. Pouring rain today so no walk for me. Managed 14.5hr fast yesterday, hoping for 18hr today (gets me to 1230). Sleep hasn't been great so took a quick nap after my first meeting and still quite groggy. Rain doesn't help - hello perfect sleeping weather. Should be a quiet simple day.
10/27 - I'm not sure.... I feel way less bloated and heavy so really not sure. Dinner was quite heavy as I tried a new recipe - "Cowboy Stew" and ended up eating later than I'd like because it took so long to cook. Not sure what plans are today but because late dinner, I may have to either pull an OMAD or a 16hr fast. I'll see what the day brings. Ended up putting hardtop back on jeep and it wore me out so no other workout. Not likely to walk today as its spitting rain in 35 degrees out (feels like 27, brrr). I don't handle cold well - I'm the one in a jacket at 70 degrees! Glad I got my garden blanket Sunday and put it up last night - I'd have lost my peppers! Hoping BF will build my "greenhouse supports" onto my raised bed so I can properly secure the blanket. I just pinned it over the cages and wrapped excess around it to get as secure a fit as I could in hopes it'll hold over. This weekend should start to see warmer overnight temps - 50 or so degrees) which will help a lot. I've got so many peppers finally blooming, I don't want to lose them!

My main goal is not to be elated or devastated by the scale. It has been a very long, emotionally painful journey with my weight, all of my life. I want so badly to escape my food addiction. I never want to be 338lbs. again but I know it could very well happen. I don’t want to be 115lbs. again because at that weight I was losing my hair and I was sick all of the time and exercising four hours a day, eating less than 800 calories. I just want moderation!
This daily weigh-in has been a good discipline. Hard to get too excited or upset over the scale when one sees how much fluctuation happens regardless of my caloric intake and exercise.

Wishing you a happy birthday! Try and focus on the positive and things that make you happy and I suggest leaving the TV off. There are days I just need a break from it too. Maybe replace it with some upbeat music (that always perks me up). Hope you enjoy your day.8 -
Next overall goal is to get back to 142.4, which was my last recorded weight before COVID (was mid-Feb).
For this round, I am trying to be realistic, both my birthday and Halloween are during these 10 days. So I am trying to take off one more pound during the 10 days, while remembering to remain under 145 for my birthday which was my previous goal.

10/24 144.0 Last evening, the day had passed and I had not remembered to get in any formal exercise, so I headed out for another walk, even though the majority of it was after dark. I spent the rest of the evening looking into reflective attire. :P
10/25 142.6 Wonderful surprise number for me. I need to keep yesterday’s food diary in mind. BUT, the number feels too good to be true. Planning to stay the course today (I have pre-tracked through the 27th) and will “check-in” on MFP using tomorrow’s weight for my 59th b-day.
10/26 – Happy 59th to me! 143.0 Super happy with this. Last round my goals were to be under 145.0 for my 59th birthday and it almost looked like it would not happen. Then a few nice losses have got me to 143! I have pre-tracked my birthday (Chinese – 2 cups moo goo gai pan & 1 spring roll) and current plans are to stay under calories, but who knows, I might have a mini splurge. But what? I will be prepared for an unknown morning tomorrow as the Chinese food sodium has potential to create havoc.`
10/27`- 143.0 Actually pleased with that since I had the Chinese food last night and anticipated a sodium uptick.
10/28 – 143.2 Yesterday, for the first time, I mixed in jogging into my walk dropping my avg pace to 13’30’ and the last time I did the same route it was a 14’57” pace. Nice to see measurements of improvement. As for weight, I am not concerned. This is one of the benefits to tracking, I know that there is no caloric reason for a gain today, so it is water retention, or a more realistic number, or just difference in digestive processing. Whatever is the accurate number, it will show itself with time.

10/28: 280.4 (-0.2) ⬇️ Still a loss and I'll take it over a gain anytime. I'm getting a new scale today and I hope it shows the same weight or less, then my old scale. There's always a little uneasiness with getting a new one, because you wonder if the old one was giving you the correct weight. I'll know for sure when I weigh in the morning.

10/26 157.2 hmm. I had a busy active weekend at the horse show. Not sure why I'm up. My body does tend to bounce up after a hard workout day. Hoping this is down tomorrow, but I'll drink lots today.

10/24 - 154.4
It wasn’t a healthy eating day, but I managed to stay in my calorie goals and avoided snacking! Also, I hit exactly 36 oz of Diet Pepsi today. We will celebrate the little things. I also noticed that others posted a cycle goal so I’ve added that.
10/25 – 153.8
This was a pleasant surprise! Today’s been good so far. I’m staying within calorie goals and pre-planning my meals. I’ve avoided snacking. BUT… I blew the Diet Pepsi goal. I blame my DH who kindly surprised me with a fountain drink when he went to the grocery store today. Tomorrow’s a new day!
10/26 – 153.8
10/27 – 154.4 – I was a bit surprised by this as I was on track yesterday, but it’ll come around

10/24 219.6 Walked 3 miles this evening, tracked, AF. Long car drive returning from the camp. Yesterday I felt like I’m back in sync with following my better habits and plans I started in August. Still in the teens but really sorry to not see the 218 on the scale that I saw earlier in the week before the camp. I know why given my choices at the camp. It’s in the past … moving on.
10/25 218.0 Walked 6 miles, tracked, 4 glasses of wine … my kids surprised me with a birthday party.
10/26 217.1 Walked 4 miles, tracked, AF.
10/27 219.0 🎂🥳 60 years young! Walked 4 miles, tracked everything, 2 glasses of wine. This bounce up is disappointing! I was in a funk and felt hungry which led to many different snacks in the afternoon.
10/28 218.1 Walked 3 miles, tracked everything, 3 glasses of wine + 2 Benedictine and for dinner crab claws appetizer, salmon, roasted veggies at a “fancy” birthday celebration. The thinner me loved getting dressed up.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24 140.4
10/25 141.6 Need more water and could have swapped that 8pm Chipotle burrito for a snack instead.
10/26 141.4 Have a beautiful lunch salad packed today. I'm not sure what to add or not add to keep within maintenance range. I'm guessing it's mostly a protein & fat trade off for me. Time will tell.
10/27 140.8 Up early and feeling good today. Making a pretty lunch salad at home. I hope it turns out well. Some of them don't quite wow me.
10/28 140.6 My salads are yummy but was hard to feel full yesterday and was grazing. It could have been how early I was up too.

Managed to lose 0.7 kg last round. Now with 2.7 kg to lose. Back to tracking, counting and posting.
OSW 88KG
RSW 62.7 kg
Target this round to lose 0.7kg
10/24 63.4kg.very disappointing but entirely my own fault.
10/25 62.55kg. Doubt it will stay off as we have big weekly braai here every Sunday and the food is just way too good. Aim is to be lower tomorrow than I was Monday last week and I'll OMAD to help
10/26 63.4kg as expected. I need to change my Sunday routine.
10/27 62.75kg...not bad. Gym done and aerobics this evening.
10/28 63kg. Really was expecting a drop today as yesterday was great on calories, carbs and exercise.
