SW: 206.2
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 206.4 56 net carbs yesterday, step goal achieved, and Pelo ride done. Why the uptick? Bodies work in mysterious ways. 🤷♀️ I know it’s nothing I did, so it’s all good. It may be lingering hormones. I’m so close to that 1 in front of the number that I can taste it, so I’ll keep pressing forward.
10/30: 206.2 It’s good to see the number drop again, but I do think the carby pizza I had last night showed itself this morning. My fingers were a little puffy when I woke up. 85 net carbs, strength training done, but slightly short on my step goal. It’s all good. I’m going to make today count!
10/31: 206.2 I’m not surprised I didn’t drop this morning. I had a girls day out with my daughters yesterday and we wound up at a conveyor sushi restaurant for dinner. I kept it reasonable though, and managed to keep in my calorie goal. Carbs came in at 103 for the day. Step goal achieved though! On to today.
11/1: 206.0 Kind of annoyed it’s not more. I had a great day yesterday- 59 net carbs and step goal achieved. But maybe I need to work on my thinking around how my body should behave in response to my actions. We all know the body does it’s own thing, so maybe I need to readjust my expectations. But also, this could still be the sushi water weight hanging around too. Idk. It’s Monday though, and a fresh, shiny new week. Let’s roll!
11/2: 204.4 There it is! Of course, I had some digestive issues last night that probably helped get me that number, but it’s a fair trade off. I think I’ve become sensitive to cooked cauliflower of all things. This is not the first time, but it has been a few weeks since I last ate the stuff. I love cauliflower in any form, so this saddens me. 😢 56 net carbs and strength training done. I do think I’m going to reduce my step goal back down to 10,000. It’s been a stretch to hit 11,500 a lot of days lately, which stresses me out more than it should.
11/3: 204.2 I was hoping for more, but I’ll take it. 48 net carbs yesterday, Pelo ride done, and hit 10,000 steps. I’m still mulling over changing my step goal, but figured hitting 10,000 is my bare minimum goal. I really can’t wait to see 199, but man! It’s coming so slowly! I did do my monthly measurements on Monday and was astounded by my hips and waist measurements. Down 8.5” on my hips and 9.5” on my waist since August!
11/4: 204.6 58 net carbs, strength training done, and 10,000 steps. Now why the uptick? Idk. I am feeling a little frustrated. And I’m wondering if maybe I’m not eating enough? My baseline from MFP is 1330 calories, but with exercise it’s usually more like 1450+. I usually stay around 1450. How do I know if I need to eat more? I’m really questioning it, but of course I may be questioning it prematurely.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 219.8 WHAT?! I will say my body was just running through water yesterday. I kept drinking more and more throughout the day. I went home after work and worked out. Set a new 30 minute PR on the Peloton. Woke up this morning and did 40 more minutes. So we're seeing 2 workouts between yesterday's weigh-in and today. First time seeing teens!
10/30 - 218.9
10/31 - 219.4
11/01 - 220.2 Honestly not surprised because halloween weekend is crazy. Party, getting everything ready for trick or treat, etc. really put exercise on the back-burner. Still worked out every day but just not as hard. I also think the time that I weigh on weekend vs Monday makes an impact and my Monday bike rides are always easy to ease into the week.
11/02 - 221.1 My weight is so strange, I swear. Every day I do essentially the same thing with diet, exercise, movement, water, etc. Never makes sense, but still keep pushing every day. Feels like I've been stuck in the 220s forever. Just let me get down to teens and stay there please!
11/03 - 219.8 Alright, back to goal weight for the round. I find that comparing to a week ago is helpful to see progress. 1 week ago I weighed in at 222.7 so while I have had a lower weigh-in this round, I'm still down 2.9 lbs since last Wednesday. Did 2 20 minute rides this morning on the Peloton, getting ready for my 100th ride this Sunday!
11/04 - 219.4 Not really much to say today. Woke up a bit late because it was warm in bed and cold outside, so I only got 30 minutes on the bike in but I did get close to a 20 minute PR and I set a new 10 minute Climb PR so I'll take that!

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.

OK peeps, this represents several things. First and foremost, it is my lethargic approach as of late. It also represents a fundraising event last night that was in the “taste of” mode, offering a little bit of a LOT of things. I partook of all. It was a salty-sweet sensual / emotional eating catastrophe train wreck. And finally … too much information.
No hugs please. What I need a time-out in the corner. I will bounce back.
11/3: 207.8
Yesterday was a disciplined day. Right eating and really good exercise. Need to stack a few of these days up. I think where I get into trouble is when I stack undisciplined days.
Maybe a good intermediate goal should be that if I have a “bad day,” I will follow it up with a good one. Even if on an extended weekend or week-long trip with friends. This may seem like a cop out, but let’s face it, I will always have undisciplined days sprinkled through my life. At least I hope so. HA!
11/4: 207.2
This round has already ruined my ten-day average. Especially Monday’s shenanigans. But, looking on the bright side, today’s reading is lower than my previous round average. (Work with me here people! Ha!)
I appreciate you all.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 179.8
Ok, well, at least my average isn’t rising. The floor has taken longer than planned because the guy’s assistant won’t show up for work, but hopefully he can wrap it up today and we can reassemble the house and eat normally again. I’ve decided that since books, including cookbooks, and other stuff are all out of their homes, it’s a good time to “Marie Kondo” a lot of things!
10/30 - 179.6
Floors are finished—yay! Now to put everything away (and not all over my office floor!). And now I can get back to eating conscientiously. I’m happy and relieved that I didn’t gain this past week. Enjoy your weekend!
10/31 - 🎃 179.6
Happy Halloween, Feliz Dia de Los Muertos, Blessed Samhain! I kept to my calorie goal yesterday, but have a little lag time from heavier days to deal with. All good!
11/01 - 179.7, Ave 179.7
I confess—I ate several Hershey’s minis last night. Oh well! Now I’m off for a long walk with the pupper! I’ll do better today. 😁
11/02 - 179.6, Ave 179.7
Aaack — ate over calorie goal. Time to get serious again. I want to get out of the 70s by the end of the year. No more evening snacks!!! I was doing well with that but have backslid the past week.
11/03 - 178.4, Ave 179.5
So interesting — my calories have been higher (~1600) the past two weeks, and I’ve held steady, but then this drop. I am moving a lot—long walks with the pup plus doggy school two days a week. And I’m off for one of those walkies now!

11/04 - DNW - Off the rails a tad yesterday food-wise. Also, the storm was more wind than rain at my work location and kicked up some serious allergies. I ended up taking Nyquil decongestant knowing I'd be up half the night sniffling, sneezing, coughing without it (post-nasal drip is real real real in my life). Good news, it cleared me up and I was OUT. Bad news, I was a ZOMBIE this morning. I'm still only half human at this point, but at least I'm not walking into walls unable to keep my eyes open hahaha With that, I completely forgot to weigh in and went straight to my computer with my water to drink up and do my meeting. Will see about a walk later with the pup once the sun is out -- cold front has me shivering quite a bit already. Water has been good the last few days but I'll be continuing to push water to help move the excess indulgences along. Took glucose this morning and it's improved since Tuesday (may be due to a longer fast? 330am vs 8am readings...) My lab results showed me just barely under the prediabetic diagnosis range. Today I'm fairly well under. Positive note - it didn't take a diagnosis for me to take action, just a dire warning. With everyone but my mom being diabetic, I have plethora of genetics working against me so I have to really focus on the factors I can control to keep diabetes at bay. My job is to ensure proper preventative maintenance on machines, need to reframe my mind to believing my body is a machine. Preventative maintenance on it is far better than a panicked last minute reactive fix. We engineers sometimes have very odd thought processes, but I'm DETERMINED to figure out how to make this brain understand haha

Previous Day's Comments10/29 - Sometimes I wonder if my body is playing tricks on me. A sudden unexplained gain that just so happens to fall on the end of the round? Followed by a much more expected weight one day later? Hmmmm, suspicious. Oh well, moving on. Cold and super windy here these last few days. Haven't taken the pup because the last time I did, I nearly got blown away. Hopefully today is calmer and I don't have to coordinate between work meetings to get outside for one. Still feeling okay, BF still sounding horrible. Doing my best to keep up with my tea/supplement regime. Reishi, ashwagandha, and cinnamon in mornings, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and cayenne in evenings. Gut boosting, inflammatory reducing, and immune assisting. Zinc and a Vit C/D on hand as well if I feel my diet isn't sufficient to provide those.
10/30 - Now I'm really confused! I expected to be up, especially with a later night snack involved (granted, just a handful of cashews, but still a late snack). I'm sure this will bounce back up tomorrow, it seems oddly low given how I haven't exactly been the best food wise. Also, could be lack of water. I only hit about 70-75 oz water yesterday versus my normal 90+ oz. Still good since doc wants me to drink 1/2 body weight in oz, but lower than normal. Bit of a dry throat this morning, thankfully not crazy sore. Started off with a tea right away and now on to room temperature water to sooth it better. Thinking of breaking my fast to make a honey-mushroom shot for immunity and to sooth the dryness a bit more.
10/31 - I don't trust this. Either my body or the scale is playing tricks with me. 144.x is elusive and has been for months. I wasn't careful with food yesterday (BF made breakfast tacos, I had a bagel and peanut butter for lunch, and finally got my senses straight to make stuffed pepper soup for dinner. With a roll. Then BF wanted my homemade brownies which I couldn't resist and had a piece). It'll probably show up tomorrow. This is beyond odd to have 144 two days in a row like that. I don't want to hope too much, but part of me is excited this may be the end of my months-long adjustment (about every 10lbs, looking at my historical data). I have a 5k today. I don't think I'll try to run it all, I haven't run in weeks due to work and I'm just not feeling it 100%. I have a dry throat again this morning, drinking tea before I set off to walk this. Dang. Was hoping this would be a good benchmark for my actual 5k in 3 weeks. Will try to run where I can manage without overdoing it or causing injury. Will have pup so probably have to pause to drop her off before continuing it at some point. At least the fresh air should do me some good!
11/01 - This is more what I've been expecting. Not quite enough water (minimum goal), pizza, and holy moly the soreness! My knee hurt horribly last night. So bad that it starting shooting pain up into my hip. This morning is better, but I can feel the tension in the outside of my leg from knee to hip. Also major soreness in quads. Tried to stretch yesterday -- seems I did a better job with my hamstrings than quads. Ah, live and learn. Allergies got me. They've been really bad in my area for a few days and that run outside stuffed me up good. I used a Neti pot this morning and cleared out some gunk so I can breathe and feel better already. Will take my allergy meds today for sure (and the nasal spray!) Today will work on water and better food choices. Hav - Good ol' early wakeup to commute. Was under maintenance but over goal calories yesterday, my own fault. I was mindlessly eating. Glad I didn't go up further. Water was back on track at over 90oz. Goal for today is to stick to water. I'll be in a classroom all day so not a lot of movement. Hopefully we'll get breaks frequently enough to get moving.e leftover stuffed pepper soup for lunch, at least!
11/02 - The hunger monster attacked yesterday. No matter what, I was huuuuuungry. Will be better today. Only packed lunch and protein shake today. No cash and the vending machine only takes cash (thank you universe for that forced avoidance). Water was good yesterday and hoping for that again today. Soreness from 5k finally going away, too. Lunch is an hour so I'll see if I can't take a nice walk after eating before I have to be back in the classroom.

10/28 …..189.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
10/29 …..186.6 ….. (Trend weight 187.2) A nice drop after a day with very careful meals. However, the snacks weren’t good. Once on that cycle the cravings are horrid. All the more reason to stick to our guns and STAY AWAY from things not in the plan. Happy to see this drop. TMI helped too. Travel today, unfortunately. Seriously low on tile for the bathroom reno so away I go this morning. Back this evening by 6:00 I hope. Lunch out. Dinner at home is the plan.
10/30 …..188.0 ….. ( Trend weight 187.3)Travel and car-sitting weight showing up so no surprise here. I’m going to work on having an excellent day. Time for compensation. The piper wants his pay.
10/31 …..188.4 ….. (Trend weight 187.3) Halloween Candy. End of Story.
11/01 …..189.4 ….. (Trend weight 187.7) Pizza and candy. All things an overweight diabetic should not eat. I haven’t been logging either. Just log breakfast everyday then never get around to logging the rest of the meals or the exercise. Still struggling with others in the house right now. I’ve got to find some time for me too.
11/02 …..189.0 ….. (Trend weight 187.8) Scale down but trend is up and that is disturbing but motivating. First snow last night in Northern Michigan which is still stuck to the ground this morning. But the sun is shining (somewhat) and I’m feeling pretty good today so I’m going to run with that. We are halfway through this challenge already? Wait a minute, didn't it just start? Wow, I've got some serious work to do!
11/03 …..189.0 ….. (Trend weight 187.9) Good News. They got the entire breast lump with surgery and all margins show no signs of cancer. Overjoyed. With a young adult Autistic Son with me, I always worry about my longevity. Now, to apply that (again) to my lifestyle and eating habits! Today is my daughter’s birthday (the one who is living with me). There will be cake & ice cream and special dinner but I will work hard to not go overboard! I would love to end this round with a lower overall number and back on track in mind, body and soul! My body has been through a lot since early August when they first found the skin lump. It’s time to treat it right and show it the respect it deserves.
11/04 ….189.6 ….. (Trend weight 188.1) Okay. The celebrations are all over. Today I will pawn the leftovers off on my workers and make a good dietary plan regardless of what the others in the house do. Today I take my grandsons to their hair appointments. I always get them lunch or dinner afterward (dinner today because it’s a school day). I will not be ordering for myself. Getting serious here . I need a good streak!
11/05 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

10/29 216.4 (-.4) Almost fifty pounds down since May. That’s amazing. I hope to be down fifty more by May of next year. I may skip my indulgence meal this week. It really threw me off last week. No organized exercise today, so I’ll have to really pay attention to my calories.
10/30 215.2 (-1.6) Yes…finally a bit of a whoosh. 216 has always been my stuck weight. I’d diet and get there and then get stuck long enough to give up. I’ve only passed it once in the last 20 years. I was so careful to stay on plan yesterday and to get my water. Today is Orange Theory Fitness and tomorrow is hiking about 6 miles. Looking forward to a good and healthy week.
10/31 215.6 (-1.2) Worked at out OTF yesterday. Doing lunges, I noticed that I’m pretty stable on my feet, which has not been the case in the past. My balance is definitely improving. Hiking this morning on a cold fall day in Colorado. Happy Halloween!
11/1 215 (-1.8) My sister and I planned to hike six miles yesterday. It was really foggy in the mountains and when we got to the top, it was drizzling and we were concerned we’d be climbing down the steep parts in snow. We cut the hike short (4 miles) and finished before the weather got worse. It was cold. I need to pull out my long underwear. Still beautiful, as always. Busy day today with no scheduled exercise.
11/2 214.6 (-2.2) After bouncing around so much last round, I’m finally losing a bit at a time. I skipped my indulgence meal last week, so I’ll be ready for one on Friday. I’m spending that time and those calories going out to lunch with a good friend. I can’t wait. Swimming today. How are halfway through this challenge already?
11/3 214.0 (-2.8) Woohoo! Officially over 50 pounds down…50.1 to be exact. I don’t ever remember losing 50 pounds before (although I never needed to). I’m almost halfway to my goal weight. Busy day today. No formal exercise, just lots of time on my feet. Next mini-goal? 199.
11/4 214.2 (-2.6) No complaints here. I didn’t drink all my water yesterday. The day got away from me. I have another busy day today and am going to do my best to get to Orange Theory for a workout in between all my meetings. Tomorrow, I’m having my indulgence meal for lunch. So, I’ll have a bit of a bounce at the end of this round.

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.

10/29 118.5 AF Surprised by a loss because we ate at Golden Corral last night. This afternoon we are having a gathering next door with some neighbors. Only appetizers on the menu and eggnog. LOL
10/30 121.5 LOL BLOATED and uncomfortable but it will be 👍 Eggnog
10/31 121.0 AF, slow but steady re-wins the race. Great Greek yesterday
11/1 120.5
11/2 119.5 Up too early with H/A. Going to see Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience today so a fair amount of walking.
11/3 118.5
11/4 121.5 Lunch with my BFF - Great Greek salad with gyro meat, half for lunch, half for dinner. Even ate 1/2 of the pita so this could have been worse. Today steak.9 -
I love my job, I really do. But the commute is killing me.
FamWife is interested in a job at a company (transition at current job so waiting that out before determining if she wants to move on from it). She found me an opportunity for more money and working from home.... I kept putting it off because I really do love my job and my coworkers are amazing. But there's a lot going on with the upper leadership (like CEO getting fired? Yeah, kinda nerve wracking. Plus its power utility and this green deal stuff is making things not so good in our world -- technological advancements can only happen so quick and power demands are only increasing!)
She said there's nothing to lose in applying. If they offer me anything, I can always decline. But man am I feeling so odd about all this.... Is it normal to feel like I'm betraying a good thing by just probing and seeing what else is out there? I know there's a lot of wise folks here and I don't know who else to ask about all this... The only other time I changed jobs was to relocate, not because I felt a little nervous.5 -
@CamandJarvis APPLY!!! As your friend said, you can always say no. Stress is a weight loss killer. Even the act of applying might reduce some of your stress.6

Round 167 (my 4th)

Female, 5’7”
HW: 181 pounds (Dec 30, 2019)
RSW: 157.4 pounds (Oct 28, 2021, EO Round 166)
RGW: 155.4 (-2.0 pounds)
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 157.2 - Did Jazzercise at the in-person location for the first time in 17 months. Sucked wind through my mask the whole time. Will probably go back to virtual class for a while more. Ate a little bit below calories - which I am definitely not trying to do - since we were at a hockey game and didn’t want to eat junk food just to fill calories.
10/30: 156.5 - Did a 5.46 mile hike. I was a bit hungry yesterday, particularly after dinner, even though my stomach felt full. Powered through with drinking some water and waiting. Will definitely try to up the protein today, but it is a struggle for me.
10/31: 156.3 - This was our week for sporting events. NHL game on Thursday and college football game last night. Planned the food for the most part and stayed within calories. Worked out in the morning along with a long walk from the car to the stadium.
11/01: 156.5 - Slept in yesterday until 9am - very unusual for me so ended up not doing my workout until nearly 11am. Planned my eating and included Reese’s Peanut Butter cups as part of the dessert. Wow, after eating dark chocolate almost everyday, the Reese’s really wasn’t worth the calories - way too sweet. I’m glad to know that I won’t tempted by the leftover Halloween candy.
11/02: 156.5 - Rainy day yesterday, so didn’t go for a walk, but did an hour of Jazzercise in the morning. Ate within calories
11/03: 155.6 - Jazzercise and a 40 minute walk. Pretty much ate the same thing as yesterday.
11/04: 155.2 - Did the usual. Had a nice surprise - hubby flew daughter #1 in for my upcoming birthday. The next few days will be a minefield for exercise and eating as he’s surprised me with a weekend in San Francisco. I will enjoy it without guilt though. Second nice surprise is that I now have officially lost the weight I gained since June of 2020. I had lost about 25 pounds between January and June of 2020, only to put 15 of it back on by September 2021. This is the lowest I’ve weighed since 2012. That’s right, the lowest I’ve weighed in almost a decade. Still have another 20 pounds to go to get to pre-kids weight.

10/29-168-No time to exercise but worked yesterday and only sat down to eat the healthy lunch I brought.
10/30-168-Went out to see the horse and we walked a mile together. Went to work, then ate chips on the way home. 😬
11/2-173-Well, goodness. Lots of travel to spend my dad’s 84th birthday with him. Lots of heavy food and drinks. Next, traveled to my uncles for more food, drink and visiting. The trip home was long and here I am. I had lemon water cheese and crackers for dinner last night and can’t wait to get out and move today.
11/3-170-Whew! Lots of water and sensible eating. It had been so wet that I was just hiking with the horse. I finally got in the arena but forgot my saddle, so I rode for hours with the bareback pad and it was fun. I think it helps my core strength and my hips were really sore when I got done. Continued cutting out projects for my quilting retreat. A walk and then to work today.
11/4-169-Glad to be back in the 160’s. No walk because it was foggy. Worked all day (sewing at the quilt shop) then came home, made dinner and put a quilt top together.10 -
@Lilylady3k - I made the crockpot chicken enchilada soup you posted-thanks!6

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 / 199 / Second day in a row holding my weight in the 100's! Woo hoo.
10/30 / 197.6 / I was low on my steps yesterday as I had a volunteer event at night and then it was dark and snowy and I was tired. Nevertheless, my food adjusts to account for it. So happy to be putting a bit more distance between myself and the 200's!
10/31 / 197.6 / Had the most intense Peloton ride for me to date yesterday, the sweat was literally dripping off of me!
11/1 / 197.4 / Halloween was fun, had a fun sized bar or two but nothing crazy and fit it within my calories. 35th birthday today, feeling reflective and happy at how this year has gone.. looking forward to another fun year of progress ahead!
11/2 / 198.4 / Ate a bigger birthday meal last night so there is definitely more food in transit. My husband left for a 5 night business trip so it will be a quieter week around the house.
11/3 / 198.6 / Another bigger dinner last night but calories were where I planned them to be and I had a great Peloton ride. Lots of good updates by everyone today - keep it up!
11/4 / 197.2 / New low weight! Yesterday was a very healthy day of eating and I felt good about my choices.

I was recently in a situation that your FamWife was in but I applied to other positions and realized that I really love my job after learning more about the other positions I had applied & interviewed for. Also, in the end for me, my program's transition didn't affect me on a daily level and so far I'm happy the way it worked out for me.
For your situation, I totally recommend applying because you have nothing to lose and that's the best time to be looking. At least, it'll be interview practice if you haven't interviewed in a while. When I was questioning what I wanted to do this summer, my manager at the time (she was losing her role in our program because there was a merge, so I was open with her about exploring other options) told me it's always good to continue looking even when you're content.
Edited to add: I also think interviews can be really telling about a company just by the vibes the interviewers give off. I would also be a major zombie if I was commuting/working the hours you have been recently. That alone can take a toll on your health. So that's another point to consider.6 -
