I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Broken Scale. Just trying to do the right thing without any “wishful thinking.” I fizzled out posting and reading the last two days of round 146 due to scale problem and family “problem” of house guests and unbridled munching.
It will be interesting to see what number pops up on a new scale.

Keep fighting the good fight everyone!

@_JeffreyD_ Have you ordered a new scale? Are you researching? I'm curious what you find (: I'm a bit nerdy so I like to see what options various scales (or whatever it is) have and how they perform. It can be very interesting at times!4

R147 Goals — walk more 🏃🏻♀️ No evening snacking. Calorie goal <1400.
My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of gaining, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit. I’m lowering my calories goal by 100 to see if that breaks the stalemate without going too low (I actually think 1400 is too low but...).
Day/Weight Change/Calories/Comment
4/12 - 188.8 - 2134 🤯
I had a relapse bout of emotional eating last night, as in “I kept to my goals for the past 10 days and gained so ppffftttt” eating stupid stuff, but I’m back on track today, with meals planned. I’ve also decided to recast my calorie goal as a limit, not a goal, and if I get through dinner with very low calories, not feel I need to make up the dif to guard my metabolism, which is clearly already screwed up. I’m pretty depressed about all this regain right now (8# from this time last year, 50 from 3 years ago 🤬), not least because I don’t seem to have any warm-weather clothes that fit & I hate that I need to go buy some fat clothes. Ok, enough, and no, I don’t want any cheese with my whine. My goal this round is to lose something, anything!
4/13 - 188.8 - 1406
I managed to keep my calories lower, so there’s that. It’s a beautiful day for a long walk and some more weeding/grass removal from garden beds. Have a lovely, everyone!

4/12 – 200 – 10,163 steps yesterday. Camping this weekend and TOM. Still really depressing looking at the scale.
4/13 – 200.2 – 10,533 steps yesterday. Wow. Just wow. Way to go, fatso. Still my TOM, but typically the water weight drops when it starts. So, I guess this is my weight now and I’ll need to start over. Weight loss goals adjusted again.

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.

4/12 - 125.4 - Happy 40th birthday to me! 🥳 I am so, so happy today. If you had told me on this day last year that today I’d be 40 lbs lighter, able to run a 5K without stopping, able to hold a full plank for 2+ minutes and able to do 3-4 full push-ups, I would have laughed. I owe a ton to this group and all the support - it’s still hard to believe how far I’ve come. The process really can work! We can do this! I’m in the best shape I’ve been since college and so much happier and healthier than I was. I got to sit outside in the sun with two friends yesterday for a picnic birthday brunch - it almost felt normal. Both my husband and I have our first vaccine and are scheduled for #2 at the end of this month. I have two amazing kids who I have the incredible privilege of getting to raise and teach each day - they even made Mommy a special birthday cake with TONS of sprinkles (Daddy helped with the baking but the sprinkles were all them). I know there is so much wrong in the world right now, but today I’m focusing on the joy. 🥰
4/13 - 125.4 - I will absolutely take that on the scale this morning, since I ate yesterday like calories didn’t exist. Back to reality today - I’ll still enjoy the leftovers and the rest of the birthday cake, of course, but I’ll measure and track them now. Thank you all for the birthday wishes - I try to be a positive voice and give back a little of the help and support I’ve gotten from this group. I hope everyone has a great day - I started mine with a killer leg workout and now I get to go try out my brand new blender with a breakfast smoothie!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/12- 210.4lb. Always nice to start the challenge off with a loss. Just over a pound to go and I will have lost 1 stone since my journey began. Got a long way to go, but I’m definitely on the right path. Still can’t shake this chest infection so ringing the drs today to see if they can prescribe me some anti-biotics.
04/13- 210lb. Started back at the gym yesterday and my legs are sore! Started with a leg day, so my quads are aching. Another loss which is great. Hope to maintain a good level of loss this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/11 …..206.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/12 …..207.4 ….. I ate 3 meals yesterday instead of my normal 2 which pushed my calories and carbs up a bit. However, I did make good choices and I got out in the yard yesterday evening for a bit to do some more raking and yard clean-up. The house I bought was empty for awhile so the leaves and pine needles are never ending. I burned extra calories had over 11,000 steps so for that I am grateful. Good luck everyone this round!
04/13 …..207.2 ….. Another small step forward in my journey. I am grateful for any progress. Now…… to avoid the two steps back!

March focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 147- Maintain weight < 150
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals by keeping busy
Never give up! Never give in!
Recent Back Story:- 2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
- 2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
- 2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2021
- Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
- (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/12 Did not post
04/13 115.4 So this is what I call my dry weight. It was after I worked out fasted in the morning, but I was happy with it because this weekend was a tough one foodwise. Life is always busy but it just feels extra busy right now. We are slowly making progress on the renovation plans but that has also been consuming my time on the weekends as I research appliances and everything else involved in building a whole new living space. I have been keeping up with my exercise though and that has been saving me when I make poor food decisions on the weekend (along with staying within a deficit on the weekdays).

Ha! I just bought one at Ace Hardware. It has absolutely no special features. I am pretty nerdy too actually, but I did not want to deal with it on the scale. I feel ashamed of it after hearing about all of the features that yours has.
It does allow me to weigh in kilograms if I want to. Maybe I should do that for a while to tip my hat to our European / Canadian friends!
It does not weigh in "stone," whatever that means. 6 -

Hi again!
First round for me
!
Also I should mention that this is the first time I am trying keto ! We'll see how it goes!!!
Female, 36 yrs old 1.65cm ( 5' 5'') . I reached my highest ever weight at 70,7 kgr (155.9 lbs) and I have started a slow but steady effort!
Hopefully, this challenge -alongside everyone- will speed things up a bit!
SW: 68.3 kgr (150.6 lbs)
GW: 64.3 kgr (141.8 lbs)
UGW: 54 kgr (119 lbs) by August 2021
Third Day Weigh in
04/12 68.50 kgr (150.6 lbs)
04/13 68.00 kgr (149.9 lbs) Ok... I could not believe my eyes -half a kilo in a day! I guess it was the keto shock to the system! First time doing anything like that... Just taking it a day at a time!
04/14 68.00 kgr (149.9 lbs) No change whatsoever!!! Xmmmm..... I would like to see at least a 67,9kgr - for phycological reasons!! Anyway, I guess it was because I only had a very light workout and the last meal was at 21:15!! Even though I was under my daily calories.... Alas... Tomorrow is a new day!!!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 147 (round 79 for me ) I prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.
Female age 62 5' 4” - Challenge for this round; need to get back to maintenance – get back to and stay at or >130. Away in our touring holiday for a weeks holiday, bbq each night with a glass of wine, but plenty of good long coastal walks (weather permitting!). Will try everyday to be in credit with calories. Need to get back to 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! Not taking any chocolate with us – DH can sort & control his own! (He's lucky he's never had a weight problem.) A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
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 – I've had my first, spread positivity and encouragement for it to others.
Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

04/12 132.2 – 9.84 miles walked, 420 calories in credit & all macros in green.
04/13 130.2 - such a surprise! Expect it will be back up tomorrow. Only 4.91 miles walked yesterday as travelled best part of 200 miles to Devon, and a short walk between setting up the caravan & awning and getting the bbq on, hence 108 calories over.
04/14 131.2 - that's more like what I expected yesterday! 12.17 glorious miles walked yesterday on the coastal path and through Valley of the Rocks, 856 calories in credit.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/12- 210.4lb. Always nice to start the challenge off with a loss. Just over a pound to go and I will have lost 1 stone since my journey began. Got a long way to go, but I’m definitely on the right path. Still can’t shake this chest infection so ringing the drs today to see if they can prescribe me some anti-biotics.
04/13- 210lb. Started back at the gym yesterday and my legs are sore! Started with a leg day, so my quads are aching. Another loss which is great. Hope to maintain a good level of loss this round.
04/14- 209.8lb. Small loss, but this one means so much! Below 15stone, despite the fact that I will see this number again through fluctuations, I’m glad to see the back of it. 31lb to goal, which I know is miles off, but I’m in this for the long haul.

Ha! I just bought one at Ace Hardware. It has absolutely no special features. I am pretty nerdy too actually, but I did not want to deal with it on the scale. I feel ashamed of it after hearing about all of the features that yours has.
It does allow me to weigh in kilograms if I want to. Maybe I should do that for a while to tip my hat to our European / Canadian friends!
It does not weigh in "stone," whatever that means.
A stone is 14 pounds, I think it is a traditional British way of weighing; stones & pounds, kilos were introduced in the UK in the 70s which was to the end of my school years, so to me and others in my age group, we still use stones and pounds!5 -
First round for me!
I am a 54 yrs old, mildly active woman living overseas presently with my DH. Migraines are a plague to my life and I'm taking Aimovig now. It comes with side effects!
I'm trying to do IF 18 -20 hrs. with a 4-6 hr eating window.
