I’m new here, and I love the idea of this challenge. I can do anything for 10 days!
I’m a 36YO F. Highest weight ever was 395. Current weight is 222.2 My first goal for this round is to get under 220. My second goal is to keep carbs under 100g net carbs each day. Third goal is to keep consistent with my strength training and cardio.
SW: 222.2
Day/Weight/Comment
8/30 222.2 Great day! 57g net carbs, and both strength and cardio workouts done!
8/31 221.4 Officially hit 20lbs down since starting MFP on 8/15! Another successful day- 63g net carbs, and cardio done!
9/1 220.4 Another great day! 67g net carbs and a strength training session complete. Just getting in a few more steps before bed tonight. Feeling great though! Maybe I’ll even see a new decade tomorrow. 🤞

@_JeffreyD_ I had a Garmin for about five years. It syncs well with MFP including adding and subtracting calories when your steps are more or less than a usual day. My last one was coming to its end and I bit the bullet and bought the Apple watch. I love all the bells and whistles and the details I get on all my workouts, including swimming. The exercise syncs with MFP, but no credit for regular daily activity. I'm happy I made the change.
Okay that's two for Apple watch. Thanks for the feedback.4 -

I love my Fitbits! Been a consistent customer since about 2014-2015 time. Customer service was fantastic the one time I had to call them and that definitely made me happy with my decision to stick with Fitbit.
I upgraded to Versa2 when it came out (guestimating about 2 years ago or so) and I LOVE it. I also work in a power plant and it gets rough, dirty, and I get banged up a lot. No cracks, damage, nothing. It's still perfect and completely usable (that, alone, is a miracle 'cause my phone only lasted about a month and a half at the plant and it doesn't get near the abuse my watch does).
My friend, an AVID Apple user, even considered switching to Fitbit. So much so, she applied to a job at Fitbit! (win for me because as the only Android user in our group, she's CONSTANTLY trying to convert me to Apple. The tables have turned
) Granted, I think she's tired of constantly breaking her Apple Watch and having to replace it because we are both clumsy... Mine has held up well enough to get her notice.
Even my grandma uses one now that I've introduced her to it. It's her pedometer so she has the most basic one. But, hey, it's helping her stay as healthy and active as possible in her 70's so I'm happy to indulge her with a new one every few years for her birthday or Christmas (: She loves that we both can have one despite our differences in physical capabilities. I love that I can check on her progress and cheer her on (or kick her butt into gear hah!)
I also love it syncs with just about Everything. Strava, MFP, my HealthMate scale app, etc. I can see so many details and it keeps me on track. When this one finally gives up on me, I'll be comparing everything out there I find to Fitbit to see if it holds up to what Fitbit offers me. Maybe I'm biased, but I love it.
Hope I didn't info-blast you too bad (: Good luck with whatever choice you make! (and let us know if it's something different, I'm always curious to learn more about other options)
Okay, a vote for the Fitbit! Thanks.6 -
I'm in! Thank you, @quiltingjaine ! I like early, too!
71 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion......Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
Kicked the uneven sidewalk...landed on my face...messed up my right knee, calf and ankle. No walking for a while.

Last round began straight after a camping activity holiday, ended after birthday celebrations and included my TOMO so it wasn't the best of circumstances for monitoring weight, with lots of retaining water and disruptions to my routine. Glad to have reached my goal but now ready to put August behind me and knuckle down. I have a 2.5lb loss goal this round, which might be too ambitious but I have a feeling I'm due a drop in the next day or so. We'll see! Exceeded my step goal total so I'm adding 500 more each day, also adding a sleep goal of 8hrs minimum per night to try and reduce stress levels and attempting to cut out alcohol for Sober September as this can be a real problem for me.
08/30 162.0 STEPS 13,606 SLEEP 8hr14m Didn't eat much yesterday as I was feeling pretty rough, lots of walking and standing around. A really great time with old friends and family but glad to get home and recover!
08/31 160.4 STEPS 8,426 SLEEP 8hr23m Low energy day again yesterday so a little short on steps. Went for a 3 mile walk in the afternoon which wiped me out. Really hungry in the evening and ended up snacking and had a couple of drinks. Feeling much fresher today so hopefully I'll get more activity in.
09/01 161.0 STEPS 9,520 SLEEP 8hrs34m Busy day yesterday, early morning walk then gardening and house reno stuff. I had a proper meal for lunch rather than just a banana but still felt really snacky in the evening so ended up over my cals a little bit. I'm really ready to get into the 150s now. Feeling a bit blue today but I've got a long walk with my mum planned for later which will hopefully lift my spirits.
09/02 159.4 STEPS 13,289 SLEEP 8hrs27m Lovely walk yesterday enjoying all the wild flowers and late summer colours, about 4.5 miles. I recently got the Ordinance Survey GPS app on my phone and it's revolutionised my walks, thoroughly recommend it for UK walkers! Made it into the 150s today, so that's good, trend weight is still 161.7 but it's nice to see as a taste of what's to come😁

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
8/30 203.0 Walked 3.8 + 1, 1402 cal, 81 net carbs, AF. Cancelled plans with friends to dine out since my friend’s family has many in the hospital with covid and DH was not feeling well. Finished reading The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Harmel.
8/31 203.7 Walked 3.25 + 1 miles, 1568 cal, 172 net carbs, AF. Walked to the library to drop off my book
Then another short walk in the evening after dinner with DH. FINISHED my 100 miles for August! I’m walking on the 31st anyway. Scale bumped up due to terrible choices for meals … breakfast - waffles & sausage; lunch - spaghetti & salad; dinner - Salisbury steak w/ rice & gravy & green beans. Few veggies and lots of carbs.
9/1 204.6 Walked 2.4 miles, 2257 cal, 141 net carbs, 1 glass of wine. Slice of Berry Chantilly Cake on top of a late dinner. DH’s sister unexpectedly drove in to stay with us … celebrated her birthday which is Friday since we rarely see her and it was a treat. Not surprised that the scale jumped right up!
9/2 204.3 No morning exercise, feeling blah, walked 1 mile in the evening, 1730 cal, 130 net carbs, 1 glass wine w/ frozen pizza. DH met with allergist over Zoom and he thinks we might have covid … constant headaches for days w/ fatigue, tightness in DH’s chest … prescribed Prednisone for DH. Went to 8 local pharmacies and they were out of the rapid covid test (BinaxNOW). Scheduled PCR Covid 19 test Thursday morning but won’t have the results for 2-5 days. Our son has a rapid covid test and is dropping it off today. Good news is that we are both vaccinated. Not sure where we would have picked up covid … restaurant? grocery store? My sister that is an elementary teacher? Moved trip to fishing camp out to the next weekend.

9/1 117ish Hey all, it’s been a crazy month with moving and work. I’ve missed checking in and reading everyone’s posts. I hope you’ve all been well and that I haven’t missed too much! I’m glad I’m back and ready to get my butt in gear with posting daily again. I’ve missed the daily routine and need it back in my life. I’ve been consistent with my cardio exercise but after moving back to my in-laws home I’ve been slacking on strength. That’s my goal to get to next week and work it into my schedule. I’ve been able to maintain in the 115-117 range, so I consider that a win in and of itself. I’ve also maintained tracking for the most part except for the days that go haywire.
9/2 117.6 Flash flood warnings are still around for a bit so I decided not to run this morning. I’ll use the spin bike after work to get some cardio in, maybe I’ll work a bit of strength into it too. My husband recently accepted a new job after completing his fieldwork and passing his OT license exam. So, he starts that in about a week and half which is super exciting/stressful for him. The last time I was posting regularly I had mentioned having a couple interviews, I decided that role wasn’t a good fit for me and withdrew my application. Now I’m just focusing on building some other skills in my current role to help myself now/in the future.
Have a good Thursday everyone!

My last one was coming to its end and I bit the bullet and bought the Apple watch. I love all the bells and whistles and the details I get on all my workouts, including swimming. The exercise syncs with MFP, but no credit for regular daily activity. I'm happy I made the change.
Okay that's two for Apple watch. Thanks for the feedback.
@_JeffreyD_ - I was doubtful about the Apple Watch monitoring my swimming at the lap pool but it did great! Set it to meters length and let it count the laps! So very cool. Also does great on my walking (both steps & tracking miles, speed, rate/pace, etc). Use it for timing the burn in strength training and riding the bike. All of it syncs with MFP which is great! But it also views well on its own on my iPhone to get the history.

09/02 - 146.4 - Was a bit afraid dinner last night would cause a bump up. A coconut turmeric chicken curry. Quite quick and delicious (though a tad bit labor intensive according to BF who cooked while I set up for my fantasy football draft). 90 oz water down the hatch and aiming for that again today. Leftover curry for lunch and chicken ranch stuffed shells for dinner (note to self: take the lactose pills!)

Previous Day's Comments08/30 - Have not been good with water AT ALL. Food has been on the go and high salt. Was super sad to see 150s yesterday, but glad to be back down. Heavily pushing water today to get back down. Definitely feeling this weekend today. No running, I'm super achy from the rain/storms that rolled in and out this weekend.
08/31 - Better. Not perfect, but I didn't expect to drop all the way back down in one day. Don't feel quite as heavy and bloated as I did yesterday. Got about 75 oz water in. Today, aiming for 90oz. Street tacos for dinner tonight and have to stock up on some things (we did a kitchen clean, including tossing old condiments and such from the fridge). Will get me some veggies for lunches. Work gave us $150 for a year of Safety (no recordable incidents or work vehicle accidents) which will help (thankfully, I need it this month! My paychecks are not aligned well with bills due this month or next....I miss having my 1st/15th paychecks) Still no running, still achy and it was sprinkling rain. I'm feeling back on track now.
09/01 - Ahh, much better. Took way less time to drop this huge amount than normal, but I think my vitamin regime has been helping (a lot of people have said weight loss and a reduction in bloating have been surprising accidental side effects. Maybe I'm one of those lucky ones?) Usually would take until Thursday or Friday for that amount of "gain" to disappear. Happy it did! 90 oz water yesterday which also likely helped. Did go for a run this morning with my new ankle brace. Held up great! My right knee, however, did not fare as well. Likely fatigued due to unintended favoring of the left ankle, so just did a mile. Could've done more, but pup was getting tired and don't want to push and cause serious injury. Every step counts, though, and I did a mile of steps! Even planned dinners for the remainder of this week to reduce food waste and grocery spending (: Tried to make it somewhat balanced, though it's not perfect. New recipes, though, so lots of room for adjustments and improvements. Here's to a great week!
