Day/Weight/Comment
09/09 - 238.1 Not too surprised by a slight increase with my food intake yesterday. Working 12 hour days and still getting a T25 workout and walking the dogs in the evening. Now that MFP says I'm 51% to my goal I'm more motivated than ever. Only 49% to go!
09/10 - 238.5 Again, not overly surprised. Chinese for lunch and then a hearty dinner followed by no trips to the bathroom... Anyway got a great ab workout in this morning and plan on a nice walk tonight headed into the weekend! Here's to a drop come Monday.
09/11 - 239.6
09/12 - 239.2
09/13 - 237.9 Finally got back down but still not down to the end of the last round and the round goal is far away. I'm in the last week of T25 Alpha round so I have 3 rounds of the hardest workout this week so hopefully that helps. I also bought shoes for our Peloton bike so I can get some extra workouts in. Just have to remember I'm doing everything right and the numbers will come when they're ready.
09/14 - 237.7 It's starting to feel like this will be a flat round with only 4 days to go and that's okay! Some rounds have big losses and some rounds smaller. I'm just learning to take these flat days/weeks as mental health time to reflect on being in a better place than I was 4.5 months ago. Only had T25 abs this morning so if I don't get up and moving at work today I may hop on the Peloton and get that extra burn.

The “new puppy diet” seems to be working. Actually what’s working is the photo of me & DH with the puppy when he arrived. I’m so fat! I seem to have stopped evening snacking cold turkey. A bit of “fizzy water” fools me into thinking I’ve had something.

I love it when weight and running average converge. Enjoy your Saturday!

I took Rory for his first tracking session yesterday and he did great. Tracking (following human scent trails) is great exercise for both of us — right now he’s doing very short tracks, of course, but soon the tracks will be longer. I train with a friend, so in addition to walking behind Rory when he’s tracking, I walk tracks for my friend’s dog to follow. We’d do tracks two or three times a week. That plus lots of puppy walks and obedience training will get my butt in gear! Am I blathering about my puppy? Yes, yes I am! 😁
9/13 - 184.2 (184.6) - 1140
Funnily enough, after a week of no snacks at night (or any time), I’m no longer hungry at night. Yay! Now if I can keep it up….
9/14 - 184.4 (184.3) - 1248
I take that back. I was hungry last night and indulged in some chocolate fudge ice cream. But that will do me for a while, and I’m skipping breakfast this morning — not particularly hungry. 😁

9/14 - 146.3 - I'm happy with this. Figured the weekend bloat wouldn't disappear in just one day. Went for a run already this morning. BF took pup for a walk so I could run at my own pace. Upped it to 1.5 miles and upped my pace by about 30sec/mile. Not much difference, but it's more progress than I expected. Drank 90oz water yesterday which I'm sure helped a ton. Already working on water for today. Not sure lunch for today yet, but dinner will be homemade street tacos. Cleaned out deep freezer and trying to eliminate daily grocery trips -- hoping to buy a house before our lease is up on this rental next year so paying off last of the debt and upping savings, any little extra money helps!

Previous Day's Comments9/09 - Wowza, did not see that coming. But yesterday was a light day on food, didn't munch on too awful much through the day. Bagel for breakfast, leftover garlic parmesan baked chicken for lunch, and beef stew for dinner. 90oz water. Have some leftover beef stew for lunch today. FamWife is having an event tonight so likely eating out to go support her. Will try to keep things in check there. Went for a run this morning. Fitbit Premium has their trial at 90 days so I signed up for it and did a little core/glute and stretching workout video from that. Excited to see how it goes and if it'll be worth keeping after the trial ends in December.
9/10 - Expected with eating out. Not many "healthy" options but I chose the healthiest one that I knew I'd eat (I HATE chicken salad and that's about the only other thing on there decently balanced). It was still a tad greasy, hence the pop up in weight. Plus the 2 beers I had. But managed 90oz water despite all that. Was supposed to go on a coffee date today with the girls but work blew up for all of us. Instead, I made myself a breakfast sandwich and a homemade hazelnut vanilla latte with extra shot of espresso. Cafe vibes from home! Fitbit premium is kicking my butt. Literally. Have a Glute&Core series (3x/week, 3 weeks long) I did day 1 yesterday. Seemed like I wouldn't get much out of it. But HOLY MOLY this morning was my booty sore. Did another this morning along with a 1 mile run, though. Unsure dinner but lunch will be the last of the leftover beef stew. Pretty excited about that. Need to dig in to what else the premium offers, like nutrition and mindfulness.

9/13 - Not bad for the weekend I had. Unfortunately had to be out of town Friday night so didn't have a scale and was eating out. Yesterday we went out to the land early and it was quick moving, not enough time to weigh in and be out the door in time. Despite being a fairly lazy day yesterday with finger foods and football, I did not get enough water in at all. I'll be focusing on that today for sure. Need to figure out food this week still, too. Shockingly a tad bit sore from the Fitbit workouts, will try for one of those later once I get some water in and feel a bit better (got that good ol' dehydration headache). Also need to take pup for a walk before the rain hits from that tropical storm in the gulf. **I won't be hit directly based on forecast, but I will get residual. Will be preparing for potential slight flooding in the area.

Hello everyone, sorry for jumping in mid round
I used to be part of the group before covid and lost quite a bit of weight thanks to you all, but then I badly broke my ankle and spent 8 months in a wheelchair. To date I'm still in physiotherapy and limited in my activities as my leg isn't quite straight anymore.
Between that and the Covid shutdown I've put some weight back on, luckily not all of it but I still need to do that work all over again.
It's lovely to see some of the familiar faces/names from back then and I look forward to reading everyone's progress!
So here we go again
Start weight: 164lbs
1st goal weight : 156lbs
2nd goal weight : 150lbs
Final goal weight : 145lbs

@TerriRichardson112 Thank you!
4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3I started mfp on 2/20/11 at 160.2 lbs.
My lowest weight on mfp was 140 lbs in 11/2013 and 5/2014.
My highest weight ever: 168+ (and I wasn't even pregnant at that time... ) That was in 12/2016.
Just for the record used to be an athlete a long, long time ago. Used to teach Aerobics and Step Aerobics. Used to LOVE exercise.
Nowadays, I don't exercise at all. Why, oh why not? How can I go from loving exercise and doing tons of exercise to nothing at all?
Going from low blood pressure to being on medication for high blood pressure. What have I done to myself?!

Round 162 Goals: Go to bed earlier & get up earlier. Drink at least 40 oz of water. Add in exercise. Stick with menu plans as closely as possible even if my day gets changed up... and plan every day, if at all possible.
Do your best and it will happen!
9/9 158 did well with diet & exercise, yesterday.
9/10 156.8 Very stressful day, yesterday. Had wreck on the way to work. I'm ok, but was kinda in shock & couldn't think straight & couldn't keep from shaking. Finally was able to take a picture of other cars license plate. Lady ran stop sign & rear ended me pretty hard. I didn't even think to tell the police that she ran the stop sign & then moved her car back after she hit me. Lady said she moved it to get it out of traffic... First wreck in 17 years... when someone else ran a stop sign & t-boned my vehicle. That was a worse wreck than than this one. Also, I had woken up about 3 or 4 in the morning with a terrible migraine. Work was also very stressful, yesterday.
9/11 156.8 I know it will catch up with me. I had a binge last night. Another very stressful day, yesterday... work was bad stress & also got a call from the SNF that my Dad is in. Dad bleeding internally so he was sent to the Hospital ER. He's responsive & stable, they just can't handle this type of issue at the SNF.
9/12 156 Yay! I done good yesterday with exercise, water & food. Dad still in hospital.
9/13. 157 did pretty darn good yesterday with food. No binging. But knew it would catch up with me from the other binges a fewdays ago. Did exercise. Drank more water than usual 48 oz. Surpassed my minimum water goal for this week. 10,000 steps. My goal is 8,000 & I don’t do that very often. And rarely 10,000 steps. I’m still highly motivated that this is my time to lose weight! I am taking it slowly but am very determined. Dad still in hospital & still don’t know what’s causing internal bleeding.
9/14 157 Again did pretty good. No exercise though. Had a 3 extra small handfuls of cashews last night. Drank my minimum of water: 40 oz., Very stressed. Not sleeping well the last few nights. headachey... but no migraine.

9/10 211
9/11 210 After a day on antibiotics due to tooth pain, I got in for an evaluation with an endodontist, who is going to re-treat a two year old root canal, but can't schedule me in until Oct 6th. Suddenly, my concern about weight loss shifted to pain control! I was exhausted after driving to the big town with an endo since my brother who I'm visiting lives out in the boonies. Sleep & rest are restorative.
9/12
9/13
9/14 214.4 going in the wrong direction! I swam yesterday & felt the effects of endorphins, but was really hungry after swimming. Sadly my planned meals weren't satiating enough, so I overate. Today is a new day. I commit to eating only my planned portions today. Revised goal for this challenge is to be at or close to the weight at which I started this challenge. Dang that means I'll need to lose 3 pounds in 4 days!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/9 = 162.8
Went on a run with my husband early yesterday morning. I run more consistently and further than he does, he's only an occasional runner. There is quite a height difference (he's 6'3 and I'm barely 5'4), so his stride is much bigger than mine but I usually have no issue keeping pace with him - not yesterday. He was on fire and I was not feeling it! Maybe it will take a few runs to get my body used to runny early morning instead of mid-day. But still happy, to have a running partner!
9/10 = 162.8
Core workout yesterday, feeling a little sore but the DOMS will pass...The scale will most likely start moving again as the soreness lessens. Slept in this morning instead of running early a.m. with my husband, just couldn't make myself do it. Will run mid-day instead, it's beautiful weather for it too!
9/11 = 163.3
No reason for this uptick, just a random body fluctuation I guess. Not worried as am on track with all my goals. Yesterday was a good running day, got lots of water, fasted 18 hours, no alcohol. Have a big full body strength workout planned for today + maybe a long walk as well.
9/12: 163.2
Rest day today,,,,going to make it a super lazy relaxing day!
9/13: 163
Menu planning today + mid day run scheduled

Good run yesterday in much cooler temps, can feel that fall is coming! Yoga + a long walk scheduled for today.

9/09 - 229.4 (-.2) Working out at Orange Theory Fitness today. I love these challenges. They keep me motivated and moving forward. Wishing everyone a fabulous next ten days.
9/10 - 229.2 (-.4) Yesterday was my indulgence meal, pizza. Making a long story as short as possible, instead of eating the three pieces I usually eat, I stopped at one and a half pieces. It was a huge disappointment. I love this pizza from one of my favorite places and this time it was a mushy mess. I was mad. What a waste of an indulgence meal. So what did I do? Continue to eat the rest of the evening. It was probably my worst eating day since I started this journey and I was fully expecting to get up and weigh in five pounds more this morning. I was kicking myself all night and my stomach was upset on top of it. I had failed. What mind games! It’s one day out of one hundred maybe? I logged everything (almost 3000 calories). Lucky I don't keep junk food around or it could have been worse. I expect a bump in the next few days, but I’m getting back on track today. Swimming is on the agenda.
9/11 - 229.2 (-.4) While I was swimming yesterday, I thought about the mind games of losing weight. I seem to panic on and off and I think that’s because I wonder, after many failures at losing and regaining, is this the beginning of doing that all over again? I’m determined that this time, things are going to be different. That’s why I’m in this challenge and active on the forums. I’m not in this journey alone and there are so many successful people cheering us on and offering us real life examples of what worked for them. I’m going to trust the process and keep moving forward. Thanks for the great support!
9/12 - 229.8 (+.2) There’s the bump I’ve been expecting. Limited exercise yesterday and no hiking today, with my sister out of town. I'm taking my dogs to a "Doggie Plunge" today as a fundraise for Freedom Service Dogs. After they close the waterpark for the year after Labor Day, it's used for the dogs to play in before they drain it. So much fun!!
9/13 - 228.2 (-1.4) In my head, getting under 230 is a big deal for me. The next mind goal is losing more than 40 pounds (221) and then weighing under 216. There are sometimes odd mini-goals that mean something big to us individually for a variety of reasons. For this week, I’m celebrating weighing under 230. After that, I’m focusing on losing 41!!
9/14 - 228.2 (-1.4) Today I’m back to the pool and then to my art studio to paint. It’s going to be a good day.

9/9 117.0 AF My 1700th day on MFP! Even if we are cruising and consequently no internet, I make a daily entry on my phone - or on paper, and count those days.
9/10 117.0 AF My scale has received a telepathic message from all of yours. It said 111.5 3 times! I knew that wasn’t right! Moved it and tried again.
9/11 118.0 The lunch date with my DH was worth every ounce! 1/2# burger with 3 cheeses. I even ate the bun and some onion rings. Not AF as we visited neighbors and he had a snifter of Jack Daniels poured for me when we arrived. Not worried. 😋
9/12 117.5 AF We had a wonderful evening at an outdoor production of “Smokey Joe’s Cafe” at Super Summer Theater with neighbors last night. 8:20am
9/13 118.0 Adult beverage and a handful of corn chips, hung out with neighbors on the driveway. Foot/shin cramps during the night
9/14 118.0 No cramps last night. Feel as if I slept well. Oskar and I are closed in the sewing room. He’s not happy. We are having a security door installed this morning. We may also get a new peephole that is low enough for me to look through without a step up. The problem with being short!8 -

9/9--207.6 Trainer day today.
9/10--208.5 Uptick is probably from the soreness I have this morning after working out with trainer yesterday. Puppy has 2nd training lesson today. We saw so much improvement after her first lesson.
9/11--208.1 Not enough protein yesterday, so will work on that today. Puppy did so well yesterday and now we have more tools to work on her jumping. Hairdresser today.
9/12--208.5 Way too much candy yesterday and feeling a little gross today. Near my hairdresser there is this really cute old fashioned candy story that I went to yesterday and got some candy. Ate too much of the candy yesterday. Luckily, I don't visit my hairdresser that often. I really need to get my water today. Trainer day today.
9/13--208.5 Low-key day today. Going to take dog out for a long walk to help with the soreness from my workout yesterday. Goals for today are water and protein.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/08 …..187.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/09 …..188.8 ….. (trend weight 187.9) A gain overnight. It tasted like cookies but it was really the past week of well problems over & over and no water, travel, medical issues related to prior cancer that is still unresolved and the death in my extended family. Emotional eating and stress is real! Today I travel again for two CT scans. One of the liver, one of the lung. This is not a routine set of tests. There are issues that are being checked and/or rechecked. Things have been found and we need to get to the bottom of it. Travel for me means a lot of inactivity and restaurant dinner. I may skip posting my weight tomorrow (which I have never done) because I just can’t take anymore stress or pressure. I’ll post and read, but no weight! Well company coming back tomorrow. Maybe some resolution but I’m skeptical because they have already been here a couple of weeks ago. I am going to try to pull myself together tomorrow and start weighing myself again on Saturday. I just can’t take anymore bad news! In regards to those cookies, I promise it was not 1.2 pounds worth. Scale is all over the place!
09/10 …..DNW ….. (trend weight DNW) CT scans were easy yesterday. 3 large cups of contrast dye an hour prior. No results yet, of course. I had to stop my diabetes medication Wednesday night and I can’t resume taking until Sunday morning. I guess that forces me to really watch what I am eating although it didn’t stop me yesterday during travel. Today really needs to be a good day.
09/11 …..189.2 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Okay, I guess I expected as much after travel. Good news on the CT scan results…..liver lesions are benign cycts. Lung nodule has grown again both in length and width but they still feel it is not a fast enough growth from CT scan to CT scan rechecks to merit a biopsy or to suspect cancer. They will continue (as they have done since 2019) to monitor it every 6 months with follow-up CT scans. Yay! Now, to get through the real worry next week on the 16th. What does the breast surgeon recommend for my unusual skin changes on the breast which could be a pre-cursor to a very aggressive breast cancer metasteses? We will know soon…… I am planning a lazy day today as I am mentally exhausted. However, if I push myself hard enough I may just fit in a few short walks and some dancing. BTW, well company never showed up yesterday. WTH?
09/12 …..188.4 ….. (trend weight 188.3) I worked hard yesterday afterall and skipped that rest day. I cleaned window frames outside and was up & down stairs all day. I also rode the exercise bike twice, did a little walking, and danced for about 20 minutes. One song was “Have you ever seen the rain?” Yes, I was thinking of you @quiltingjaine ! Good meals yesterday but a bad snack last night. I’ve got to improve my habits!
09/13 …..189.0 ….. (trend weight 188.4)Drats already! After burning a gajillion calories the past 2 days, I ended up with my body screaming for calories and the hunger was intense at 1:00 AM. After closing out of MFP I ended up in the kitchen cooking and eating. 3.5 hours of sleep and then on the scale weighing. Not such a good plan! Today I will be burning many calories again and back on my projects. I will have to plan better. During the hunger I tried 1 oz of walnuts, then a full size (140 cal) yogurt, then a piece of 90% cacao dark chocolate. That just added to my extra calories when I finally cooked a meal. Not happy here today!
09/14 …..187.6 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Very strange…..last night I needed no snacks and wiped them off my pre-log. The night before I was up cooking at 1:00 AM. I had the same dinner both nights and I did the same phenomenal calorie burn working on my window project. I don’t always get it, but I’ll take that it’s in the right direction today with a smile.

Thank you @quiltingjaine !! May 10, 2021 - 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)
Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk most days. Focus on getting enough vegetables.
Next short-term goal:
169....168....167....166....165....164....163....162.X
SW (9/08): 165.9
9/09: 164.8 - Good riddance to 165.x, finally! I've been 165.x for 2 weeks. I would love to hit my next short-term goal this 10 days - we shall see. Rowed 30 min. 80 oz water.
9/10: 164.5
9/11: 164.2 - It's nice to be dropping again.
9/12: 164.0
9/13: 163.9
9/14: 163.9 - Glad to see weight stayed the same after popcorn (air popped) with butter and too much salt. I love popcorn and it's a good snack to have if I don't add so much salt. I drank lots of water and rowed, and was still within my calorie range.

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!
There is no going back! NOT THIS TIME!11 -

Round 162 (94th for me) . I really need this to help keep me on track, particularly over the next 2 weeks!
@QuiltingJaine- thank you yet again for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to stay on track – Friday we are off for our main 2 weeks holiday, no flying abroad this year (due to Covid), we shall be taking our touring caravan, so for the major part I will be responsible for both choosing & providing food, so hope to come back at least the same as today, a loss will be a bonus – any loss will be a win! But still aware we shall be on holiday so will be indulging in an occasional treat – note to self “an occasional treat” !! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” 2 months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic: Covid is still around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, always consider 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/9 134.8 – 10 miles walked yesterday. I failed the iron test when I went to give blood; one more point down & I would have been referred to my GP, I feel I do have a balanced diet with sufficient iron (MFP shows that too!), I went on a bit of a chocolate feast when I got home Why ??!! So plans to increase iron in diet now in hand.
9/10 137.2 – why am I so greedy, why do I keep stuffing my face? Why do I let food take over my life? I need to take back control NOW !! If this high avoidable spike is not a wake up call then what is! 8 days to pull this back, I want to do it ! I am going to do it ! Today is a new day, lets go.
9/11 136.2 - as you can see had a better food day, stuck to plan. 9.79 miles walked yesterday, feeling more in control, just need to stay that way!! On our way to the south coast for our holiday, feeling positive!!
9/12 134.2 - back to end of last round weight 👏, good day yesterday, despite travelling to camp site, setting up and erecting awning we still managed to walk almost 7 miles in the late afternoon before our BBQ. Stayed in control.
9/13. 134.2 - just over 12 miles walked yesterday, calories and macros in credit, had a toffee crunch ice cream as a treat - delicious!
9/14. 133.2 - lovely! 9.77 miles walked yesterday, half of the circular walk on the SW coastal path 129 floors. Food well within limits.
9/15. 133.6 - 9 miles walked yesterday. Food very good, feeling in control and happy.

Last round I managed to break through a stall in weight loss, I think the walking is really paying off and I feel much more energetic. I will try to keep it up this week but I have some physically hard days coming up with fitting my new kitchen and building a faux brick wall so may be quite exhausted, we'll see...

Well that's strange, 2lbs up in one day! I've had a very stressful couple of days with teenager drama (cortisol) plus had bread with dinner (carbs) which usually causes water weight for me. Also didn't get much walking done yesterday so that's most likely why. Not sure if I should change my RGW or stick with it and hope for the best.
9/10 - 158.2 STEPS 9,959 SLEEP?
I started off my day with a 3 mile walk first thing and it really gave me a boost of energy, spent the rest of the day buzzing and got loads of stuff done. In the evening we went out to a new bar in town. I ended up at about 2000 cals yesterday so I'm gonna have to be strict this weekend. OH has to go to India today for a family emergency so I'm gonna be on my own for 2 weeks. I can really focus on myself and building some healthy habits.

Big ol' carb binge yesterday for no particular reason. Got out for a short walk first thing then drove OH to the airport, got back home and spent the rest of the day snacking. Was I worried? Bored? Self sabotaging? I wasn't hungry and didn't even enjoy it... no idea. Feeling really bloated today so I'm gonna eat lots of salad and try to get a decent walk in. OH missed his connecting flight and is stuck in Delhi for 13hrs, poor thing!
9/12 - 158.0 STEPS? SLEEP?
I fought off carb cravings all day yesterday and came in a little over my cals as I didn't record any exercise but I drank loads of water to flush things through. Probably had too much salt, didn't seem to cause an issue for me, still had a big water weight drop. Getting really behind on my steps, better get a big walk in today

Nice to see that number 7 again for the first time in 10 days. I'm trying to get more fibre in my diet as I've been feeling bloated, not easy on a lowish carb low cal diet, I have just ordered some psyllium husk tablets, hope they help. I went for a 5 mile evening walk yesterday which ended in tragedy as I came across a beautiful little cat that had just been hit by a car, I held it as it died, poor thing 💔

Finally feel like I'm starting to get somewhere with my weight loss after a slow period, yay! I've been drinking a lot more water these last few days, which might be key. I left going for my walk until a bit too late yesterday, setting off at 6.30pm, then I got carried away and did a 7 mile walk on a new route, which meant I found myself stumbling through fields and woods in the dark miles from home trying not to freak out, a bit stupid of me really, won't be doing that again! My sleep is slipping so I need to get to bed earlier. Wet and gloomy day here so if I want to get my steps in I may have to brave the gym, yuck!
9/15 - 156.6 STEPS 7,914 SLEEP 6hr6m
Not much to report for yesterday, managed to get a decent walk in but then spent the rest of the day being lazy. I have a big project to start so I'm procrastinating. Got lots of fluids in which is maybe why my sleep suffered as I got up a few times to pee and woke at 5am. Really glad to still be at this weight today, 3 more days to lose 0.1lb to get to goal!

My first round, this is perfect for me!
36, 5'4
OSW on 23 Aug 21: 234 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs
Pre-round SW on 8 Sept 21: 232.6 lbs
Round goals: work out at least 20 mins every day, drink 2 litres water daily, fast 16 hours a day
Round GW: 229 lbs so that I can scratch off the 230’s
Day/Weight/Comment:
9/9 – 234 lbs – ate more than I planned to yesterday but stuck to my exercise and water goals. Feeling re-focused!
9/10 – 232.8 lbs – although I didn’t stick to the plan yesterday, I still came in under calorie goal so I'm happy with that. I also met my exercise, water, and fasting goals.
9/11 – 233.6 lbs - No surprise here. Friday is always a weak spot for me and last night was no different, big carb binge! But I didn’t drink any alcohol and that was a win. Also met my water and exercise goals. Gotta try to do better for the rest of the weekend!
9/12 – 232 lbs – Went to bed around 6pm without dinner as I wasn’t feeling well so this is probably not a real loss but happy to see this number all the same. Didn’t work out either and only drank around 1 litre of water.
9/13 – 231.8 lbs – Yesterday could have been better but happy with this number. Didn’t exercise or meet my water goals but it’s the first time in a long time that I have gone the whole weekend without alcohol which is great. Can’t believe we’re already half way through this challenge!
9/14 – 230.4 lbs – Did well yesterday with food, water and exercise. Want to work on not using my exercise calories for the rest of the challenge.
9/15 – 229.8 lbs - Yay, I can scratch off the 230’s!! So happy!! Did well yesterday with food, water and exercise and didn’t give in to my intense craving for brownies haha

Hello everyone, sorry for jumping in mid round:)
I used to be part of the group before covid and lost quite a bit of weight thanks to you all, but then I badly broke my ankle and spent 8 months in a wheelchair. To date I'm still in physiotherapy and limited in my activities as my leg isn't quite straight anymore.
Between that and the Covid shutdown I've put some weight back on, luckily not all of it but I still need to do that work all over again.
It's lovely to see some of the familiar faces/names from back then and I look forward to reading everyone's progress!
So here we go again;)
Start weight: 164lbs
1st goal weight : 156lbs
2nd goal weight : 150lbs
Final goal weight : 145lbs
9/14 164lbs
9/15 164 lbs, I suppose that's not bad, at least it's not going up. It's a big birthday week for us (13 for my daughter today and me Friday - 51) so the weight will go up by the end of the weekend, however I do plan to enjoy every moment of it, the last year has been rough to say the least and I plan to celebrate the end of it
