    Round 139 (2): 130.8 to 131.2 (+0.4)
    (but +1.4 from end round 138)
    Round 140 (3): 130.6 to ???.?

    Goals for this round:
    -at least 8 glasses of water daily
    -measure food accurately...it was a problem last round!
    -move at least 30 minutes a day
    -asleep by 10:30!

    Day/Weight/Comment

    02/01 -130.6. Got some good sleep yesterday, stayed within all my nutritional goals, took a long walk in beautiful weather outside. Let's see what we can do this round!

    02/02 -129.6. Missed my 10:30 pm bedtime, but met my other goals yesterday! I'm back to where I was at the end of round 138. I'll try again for my bedtime goal tonight-- the difference in the morning is very noticeable!

    Also, *loving* all the posts so far...I am so grateful for this group! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie 💕

    02/03- 130.2. Missed my bedtime goal *again*! I also ate near maintenance calories, with a higher proportion of carbs than I usually aim for because of: oat milk!! I love drinking almond milk, and tried oat milk...not realizing one serving of unsweetened oat milk packs about **four times** the calories of my unsweetened almond milk (30 cals vs. 130 cals/cup)!!! Delicious, but learned my (rookie) lesson: read nutrition labels!
    Honestly, though, still feel good and positive this morning. Let's go get them!

    02/04- 128.4. No idea where this number came from! I felt good yesterday and was consistent. Walked and met nutritional goals. Failed at my bedtime goal. I am **seriously** going to try again!!

    02/05- 128.4. I ate closer to maintenance calories yesterday, going over on my protein. Lifted some heavy (for me) weights. Still didn't go to sleep on time...womp, womp. I really can't believe it's the same number as yesterday. I feel like it's someone else's weight!

    @SModa61 I suggest averaging your round weight to see if it stayed at your maintenance weight. Daily weights are helpful for seeing what makes a difference but they are fickle for staying the same.

    Thank you @Quiltingjaine This is certainly a learning experience.

    Will continue thinking of you and your husband. Praying the Doctor's positive outlook is correct and biopsy results come back with nothing but good news

    I asked before but never saw an answer (could have missed it if anyone did!) — does anyone know what causes the crazy column formatting in some posts? Or how to fix?

    Sheila, I saw your post asking that question, but I have not seen any weird column formatting you refer to just now.

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 140 (round 72 for me ) I'm in for another round as I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you GrandmaJackie a brilliant champion in these unprecedented & unsettled times, for continuing to set 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 closer to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life ! Long term goal is to get and then stay under 130; then full maintanace starts and dare I say it is in my sights?

    Challenge for this round – get into and stay in 120's? I've not been that low since before 2018! Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, try to keep it in moderation, keep walking, no binges; remember keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference! Run 4 x during the 10 days.


    Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.

    Love for myself – be more positive; half glass full not half glass empty & 4 x runs of 20 mins + per round; I love the feeling of exhilaration afterwards!!
    02/02 20 min. run completed yesterday.
    02/04 – not quite the right spirit, yesterday it was chocolate I loved and not myself:(
    02/05 – got my head in the right place during 23 min run, respected my body and showed it some love by not eating to excess!!
    Love for the community – I've started the process of volunteering to help in the Covid vaccination process.
    02/03 – had a couple of video calls yesterday; with sisters & a former colleague
    02/06 - had a lovely 'phone call with DD (lives 58 miles away), missing her & rest of the family especially little grandchildren who are growing so quickly so much, love them all.

    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – we're all in this together!

    @SheilaBoneham - my husband is always amazed how with just a pair of knitting needles I can turn a ball of wool into a garment, to him it seems like a miracle each time!!

    Yes the column formatting annoys me too; quite often I've tried editing my post to correct it, but it makes no difference!!

    Good morning! The weekend at last!! My sleep patterns are still a bit off. I woke up in a start this morning thinking I'd heard the doorbell... but checking the clock I saw it was 5 am, and looking outside everything was as quiet and calm as you might expect it to be at that hour. A doorbell, what a strange thing to dream about!

    About me
    54-year-old man, 177 cm (5’10”)
    Starting weight: 101.3 kg (223.3 lb)
    Round 138 from 101.3 kg (223.3 lb) to 98.3 kg (216.7 lb) losing 3.0 kg (6.6 lb)
    Round 139 from 98.3 kg (216.7 lb) to 97.2 kg (214.3 lb) losing 1.1 kg (2.4 lb).
    Goal weight: 78 kg (172 lb)

    Round 140 (round 3 for me)
    Round 140 starting weight: 97.2 kg (214.3 lb)
    Round 140 goal weight: too early on my journey to be making predictions
    Round goals: Continue to go in the right direction, continue good habits for logging meals and keeping under the calorie target, start a good habit for daily exercise (regardless of weather, work, and other excuses)

    - - - - - - - 08:30 - 30 min 2.2 km (1.4 mi) walk to the office - gentle pace
