I’m back from my family vacation, and it’s definitely a challenge transitioning back to my normal eating/activity levels. This week I’m going to focus on low calorie snacks and walking regularly. The next two weeks are a big push at work, so making time to exercise will be important to keep me active.

My scale was not happy this morning. The second one said 149 though. I'm fairly certain I'm reaching shark week with bloating, non stop chocolate cravings, and being hungry most of the time. My sleeping schedule changed yet again, so I'm in the snacking to stay awake danger zone. 😕 That's life.
I've been working on my 10K running speed, today was first break from running, but I'm on the stationary bike right now after eating slightly more than maintenance calories 😬.

I'm a bit late getting in but thanks for starting this challenge!
I am a 5'4" 60 year old retiree living in upstate NY. I started back up using MFP on January 3rd but did not weigh myself for the first time until February 7th.
While I would like to try and lose 5 pounds per month, I am going away on vacation for 10 days so I believe a 10 lb goal for this challenge may be more realistic. If I do lose 15 it will be a bonus!
Feb 7: 222.2
Feb 14: 220.9 (down 1.3 this week. Not too bad considering that I splurged at a Super Bowl party.)
Feb 21: 218.8 (down another 2.1 this week. Exercised 367 minutes total last week)
Feb 28: Skip week since I was away from home
Mar 7: 216.6 (down 2.2 since Feb. 21st. I'm super excited that I was still able to lose while on vacation! I made sure to exercise every day, 381 minutes last week and 360 minutes the prior week)
Mar 14: 213.6 (down 3 lbs! Not sure how this happened since I ate only 660 calories less than the prior week but also exercised a lot less. My body must be playing catch-up?)
Mar 21: 212.1 (down 1.5 lbs. Exercised 275 minutes total)
Mar 28: 211.0 (down 1.1 lbs. Exercised 236 minutes total. Binged for the first time on Saturday and went over my daily calories by about 700
. I also missed a couple days of exercise during the week so over all I'm happy that I still had a weight loss)

Looks like I am more or less on target with my goals. . .
145.4 this morning
i am 5’ 9 This was last month,
SW MFP 2/01/22- 154.0 (Had lost 40 lbs prior to joining)
2/07/22- 154.0
2/14/22- 152.2
2/21/22-149.8
2/28/22-149.4
but this morning (on a different scale in a different house so not sure that it really counts) I weigh 150.0. I use this scale often so its pretty close to my home scale.
For March my goal is to keep to a roughly 1 lb per week loss spread over the whole month. Not necessarily showing up in week by week reports. So 145.5 or so by April fools day.
I am somehow missing my posting from last week but I bounced around between 148 and 149 all week

I was starting to think that I was going to be at 145lbs permanently, but I had a large drop this week! Since I started MFP in November, I have lost a total of 15lbs, averaging 3lbs/month. It’s slower than I had envisioned, but I am proud of my progress.
This week I had one day where I ate too many sweets for breakfast and then spent the rest of the day craving all the food. I’d like to increase the amount of veggies and fruits I consume this week.

Round 3 for me! I think I was 149-150 at the start of this. This round I’m treating myself like a scientific Guinea pig project
using the free National Institutes of Health “Body Weight Planner”. .
Goal: reach about 126 129.5 lbs this round, stay with my plant-based diet, keep using weights, and lower my cholesterol in the process.
Feb 1 - 136
Feb 7 - 135.5 (-0.5)
Feb 14 - 135 (-0.5) Guess this is ‘mode operand' for now. According to the NIH site, I should be about 134.5. So, I’d like to lose a full pound this coming week.

March 14 - 132.5 (-0)
March 21 - 132 (-0.5) Looks like a bit of a plateau. . .
March 28 - 131.5 (-0.5) This is slow going at this point! Still doing “ok” on my eating plan. But I’ve started falling into some old, unhealthy habits. 1. Not drinking enough H2O. 2. The weather is finally turning nicer and I’ve found myself sitting on the deck in the evening with a cocktail in my hand a few nights. So, this week I better head off that indulgence.

Had 17,000 steps today; we are on a beach vacation. It's so enjoyable to exercise when you're on vacation. We also have been eating salads for dinner with grilled shrimp. Little by little we are saving some calories.9

Two scales give me different weights. I can't get to gym scale daytime until weekend. Will update Friday or Saturday morning.
I'm not expecting much loss as I'm coming off shark week and had mad cravings for chocolate. I've identified many cases of stomach pains that weren't hunger and toughen it out. But was generally eating within maintaince calories.
My mind is so preoccupied with work, that I have opportunity to clean up my routine and stay within deficit.
Only motivated to keep going cause fast loss = fast rebound for me. I'm working on changing habits too.7 -

So happy to see a decent loss 2 weeks in a row. I have been faithful to my diet, no sweets (except for a cupcake on my birthday) and staying within calories (except my one "cheat meal" per week). I worked out for 53 min on elliptical and 60 min weights today and have been consciously increasing my steps at work. I certainly won't hit that 15lb mark by the end of the challenge but maybe 6-8lbs is a little more realistic at this point.8 -

72 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.
