10/2- 124.5 finally got the guts to stand on the scale...obviously I was scared for a reason and have regained almost all my weight back from my previous lost. Joining a little late this round but hope to restart my good habits and lose some bad.

Oops — big dinner and some ice cream. That’s ok. Breaks up the low-cal days. All good!

Yes! That’s my lowest weigh in & moving average in a year! 😁

10/02 — 181.4 (181.7) - 1435
DH made white chicken enchiladas last night for dinner — yummy, but high cals and I didn’t plan ahead too well. Leftovers tonight, but I’ll have a light lunch, and a good walk with the pup before the afternoon rain arrives. Enjoy your Saturday!

@Lilylady3k, Wow. 2500 miles. Now THAT is a road trip! Enjoy and be safe.

Heck yeah I’m in!

Fourth round for me! I can do anything for 10 days!

Goals- Lose as much weight as I can! Keep to 80 net carbs/day; Pelo 2-3x/week; strength training 2-3x/week; 11,500 steps/day

MFP SW: 237.6
Round 164 SW: 211.8


9/29: 212.0 Had a great day yesterday- hit my steps, got a Pelo ride in, and finished the day at 52 net carbs. So all things considered, this tiny uptick this morning is not unexpected because it’s absolutely the monthly hormonal shift. One foot in front of the other! It’ll pass soon.
9/30: 211.8 Had a great day yesterday, especially considering I was unsure of what dinner would look like. Wound up having a salad! Finished the day with 46 net carbs, a strength training session done, and step goal achieved. On to today!
10/1: 212.4 Had a weird day yesterday. I was busy all day, literally from the time I got up to the time I went to bed, I was going nonstop. That led to undereating slightly, less water than usual, and not hitting my step goal. It is what it is though. Still stayed within my carb goal- 66 for the day. Today will be less busy and I’ve got half my food already planned out. Going camping this weekend, and I’ve learned my best method when camping is to preplan my meals, so I’m sure I’ll be fine with food. For now, I’ll continue riding out this hormonal weight shift.
10/2: 🏕 DNW Had a good day yesterday. Hit my steps, got plenty of water, stuck to my plan for my first camping meal of the weekend, and finished the day with 54 net carbs. I have today’s food all mapped out already to avoid any overeating, and plenty of walking in the forecast too.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29 / 206 / I was expecting a drop, but not this big of one! I had a big lunch and went to bed early - ate slightly less calories than normal. Almost thinking it's just a reflection of me having less in my body right before weigh-in time. My round goal weight may be way too high but I'll see where things are at tomorrow.
9/30 / 206.4 / Played 9 holes of golf yesterday and walked the course rather than riding. Took my dog for a short walk as well. Losses the few days before were substantial so not surprised by this small bump. Today my husband, mom and I are going for a one night getaway to Banff. I am planning two days at maintenance calories - I was supposed to be in a two week maintenance break right now but decided for various reasons not to stick it out the whole time. However, decided to cut myself a few planned days at maintenance while I enjoy some holidays.
10/1 / 206.4 / Considering myself lucky I didn't see a gain on the scale today as I had a bigger dinner out with my husband last night. Sometimes it takes a day or two to show up but I also may have over-estimated how many calories I ate. Similar type of day today but intending to stay within calories.. focusing on ensuring I get my 10K steps as well.
10/2 / 206.2 / Yesterday my husband, mother and I had high tea at the Banff Springs Hotel. Whenever I have a meal out that I cannot accurately track due to the calories not being posted online, I take care to overestimate so I don't see a negative impact on the scale. So, I got to really enjoy myself but still saw a drop today, so double win!

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/Free-Weights most days. IF, no sugar. Focus on getting enough vegetables.

Next short-term goal:
162....161....160............159.x

SW (9/28): 162.7

09/29: 162.0
09/30: 161.8
10/01: 161.7

10/02: 161.7 - NSV Alert! I'm amazed every day the little things that feel so much better after losing almost 25 pounds from my heaviest. Yesterday, I walked back and forth from my workshop to my house so many times because I had drank so much water and no bathroom in my workshop. Every time I had to step from the ground to the porch with no step (my husband just poured a new cement step a few days ago), I could lift up so easily not carrying that extra 25 pounds. I can't wait to see what I feel like as I lose the next 25 pounds. Yay!

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!

CW: 223.4 (09/28/21)

UGW: 175
End of 10 day challenge goal: 223

Drink a minimum of 64 oz water a day

Swim, Circuit, Hike (5x week minimum)

Seven days of maintenance to begin this challenge

Challenge 156: 245.4 (-1.8) - Challenge 157: 242 (-3.4) - Challenge 158: 240 (-2.0) - Challenge 159: 237 (-3.0) - Challenge 160: 235.6 (-1.4) - Challenge 161: 229.6 (-6.0) - Challenge 162: 227.6 (-2.0) Challenge 163 223.4 (-4.2)

9/29 223.6 (+.2) Today is my first day of maintenance. I’m taking seven days “off” and allowing my body to adjust to where I am before starting on the next phase. I’m going from 1250 calories a day to 1740. It feels strange and uncomfortable already and this is just breakfast. No planned formal exercise today. The art show is going great so far, which is really exciting.
9/30 223.8 (+.4) My art show sold out! I’m thrilled. It was a crazy busy day as you can imagine. I ate dinner late and didn’t get in all my water, so I’m not surprised at a slight bump on the scale. It was my first day in maintenance mode. It was nice to add a little parmesan cheese to my salad and have a slice of toast with peanut butter. Tish asked me if I was going to eat up to my maintenance calorie level or just eat more when I specifically wanted it. My response was the first, to eat up to my maintenance level. As I was eating yesterday, I better understood what she was asking. I did measure and log and had 200 calories left at the end of the day. My answer after one day in is…I will eat until I’m not hungry and keep it below my calorie goals. After limiting my calories, it’s not surprising that I get full even when I have calories left. It was a strange, but good first day.
10/1 222.8 (-.6) Yesterday was one of my busiest days in a long time, so I didn’t eat up to maintenance level. I never thought I’d find it difficult to eat more. Things will slow down for awhile now and I can get back to exercise, drinking my water and eating according to plan. I think I need a nap.
10/2 223.6 (+.2) I got my swimming in yesterday and have Orange Theory Fitness on the schedule today. I did eat up to my maintenance calorie level and half of my exercise calories. In that mix, I actually had a bottled margarita, my first alcohol since I started this journey. I’m not stressing at all over the bump. It will be interesting to see how my body responds to this week’s change in calorie levels.

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.

I am planning two days at maintenance calories - I was supposed to be in a two week maintenance break right now but decided for various reasons not to stick it out the whole time. However, decided to cut myself a few planned days at maintenance while I enjoy some holidays.
10/1 / 206.4 / Considering myself lucky I didn't see a gain on the scale today as I had a bigger dinner out with my husband last night. Sometimes it takes a day or two to show up but I also may have over-estimated how many calories I ate. Similar type of day today but intending to stay within calories.. focusing on ensuring I get my 10K steps as well.
10/2 / 206.2 / Yesterday my husband, mother and I had high tea at the Banff Springs Hotel. Whenever I have a meal out that I cannot accurately track due to the calories not being posted online, I take care to overestimate so I don't see a negative impact on the scale. So, I got to really enjoy myself but still saw a drop today, so double win!

I'd rather overestimate than underestimate calories. Either way, you usually get a surprise when you step on the scales, but it's better to have a NICE surprise.

Day/Weight/Comment

9/29 206.6 Getting started here. Weight hopefully is up a bit from the long weekend of traveling. We visit my almost 82 year old mother often to help her and also have carry in from somewhere. Always stressful and I eat.

9/30 207.2 Hopefully that was the salty food I ate yesterday. I should know better by now but it was tasty. Today is looking like it’s going to be stressful. Got to keep myself focused and not give into impulse stress eating.

10/1 206.8 Turned out to be an okay day yesterday even with all the stress. I was down instead of up. 😊

10/2 207.6. Not so good last night. We stayed up very late and ended up binge eating. Both of these I never do. Still a lot of stress and figuring out how to cope with it. Hubby had a very bad health diagnosis on Thursday and I need to learn better coping skills than eating.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/28 …..188.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/29 …..185.6 ….. Finally a TMI on day 5. A huge drop on the scale and a full 1% down on the body fat. I’ve really got to start adding fiber, even if it’s in the form of benefiber. A very light dinner and some good snack choices last night really helped too. I am feeling hopeful after this drop. Good luck to everyone this round.

09/30 …..186.2 ….. I think this is a normal physical adjustment to the nearly 3 pound drop yesterday. However, I did have 3 pieces of sugar-free Russell Stovers dark chocolate from a friend that put me over calories by less than 200. Also, not too much movement yesterday. I was staining doors for my reno and that kept me in place most of the day. I’ll work harder at some extra activity. I’m just so tired in the evenings.

10/01 …..187.0 ….. Dammit! Binge last night due to cravings. I will try to make today count for something!

10/02 …..185.0 ….. I did very well yesterday. Tons of total overall calorie burn, 16,000 steps which added up going in and out of house working outside. 7 miles, 6 floors and 2900 overall calories burned for the day. This 2 pound drop is welcome! Travel today so, unfortunately, there will be a bump up again tomorrow. Today will be the opposite. Lots of car sitting and driving, little movement, and restaurant for my main meal. Ugg. Life happens! I’ll try to make good choices. I want to be able to bounce back quickly.

Round 164
September 29 - October 8, 2021
Female, 5’7”
SW: 164.7 pounds(Sept 28, 2021)
RGW: 163.2 pounds (-1.5 pounds)

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29: 164.7 - Yesterday did a Jazzercise workout (cardio and light core) and a 2 mile neighborhood walk. Logged all my food and stayed within my calorie goals (did not eat back exercise calories). I’m trying out a size M workout leggings since my size L was falling down during workouts. I’m clearly in between sizes since I feel like a bit of a sausage in the size M.
9/30: 163.8 - Jazzercise workout in my new size M leggings. Pro - I didn’t have to pull up my pants every 5 minutes. Con - the muffin top. Ate within my calories (ate some of my exercise calories back, but not all) and was heavier on the protein (for me) yesterday. The overnight loss of 0.9 pounds was a nice surprise this morning.
10/1: 164.9 - Yesterday’s Jazzercise workout couldn’t counteract a night of debauchery (1/2 a veggie calzone, chocolate cake and a brownie). I had planned my calories around two social events yesterday, but the cake and brownie at 9pm no less, weren’t my best decisions.
10/2: 164.2 - Did my first training hike for my upcoming (first ever) backpacking trip. 5.75 miles with some light elevation gains (600 ft) and light pack (13 pounds). It felt great! Although I was within all my calorie and macro goals, I felt super full after dinner (carb and fat heavy) so was surprised at the .7 pound drop. I also realize this morning that one of my food entries, chosen from the database, was just calories and no macros. Will have to continue be vigilant about which entries I use for my food diary so I don’t get any false sense of being over or under.

9/29 / 206 / I was expecting a drop, but not this big of one! I had a big lunch and went to bed early - ate slightly less calories than normal. Almost thinking it's just a reflection of me having less in my body right before weigh-in time. My round goal weight may be way too high but I'll see where things are at tomorrow.

Went to Banff and Jasper for two weeks a couple years ago in September. FANTASTIC! Loved the hiking and wildlife. Frankly I liked it better than our own Rockies (USA). Then a gain I live in the flat lands of Illinois, so a few hills are pretty exciting! HA!

We went with our "Travel Group." Two other couples who have a lot in common with us, so we love being together and doing the same things.

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.

Round 164
Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

Good start to the round. All of the residue of the Chinese Buffet on Sunday has left the building. Yesterday I even had a Brisket sandwich with fries for lunch and pesto spaghetti (reasonable portion) for supper. My spinning class wiped it away. HA!

I am “working” toward the day when today’s weight is on the upper end, after the Chinese Buffett.

9/30: 208.2
I have NO idea what just happened here. Possibly mis-logging the bowl of Pho I had yesterday? It would have to be sodium and TMI.

10/1: 206.8
The fact that it is October already blows my mind. This is a dangerous snacky comfort food time period for me every year.

That is why this group is important to me. MFP is the only “social media” I can really stand. It is encouraging and brutally honest.

I hate Facebook and its evil spawn Instagram. I have accounts to remain in contact with friends and family regarding events and such, but I must wade through so much posing and virtue signaling about every imaginable divisive topic! All this while FB profits off my personal information. (my own fault) I am about to cut the cord. Apology for the rant!

Glad we can stay on topic here (like I just didn’t) and encourage each other about our common goals. 😊

10/2: 207
Just got the lawn mowed before another round of rain. I wanted to pick up a few hundred acorns before the rain started. I have just one oak tree in my yard…very prolific.

Chinese take-out with friends tonight. Portions will not be large as we are sharing, but oh the sodium.
