4/17: 133.6 - Happy Easter! Weird eating yesterday - one large meal early afternoon with a lot of heavy snacking and tasting the rest of the day as I prepared for our Easter celebration. Not getting enough sleep though - really, really need to work on this one.
4/18: 133.6 - Another one large meal at lunch with waaaay too many nibbles the rest of the day celebrating Easter with extended family . Good sleep for once though and managed to get my workout in.
4/19: 133.6 - Back on track with eating, although still finishing up food from Easter which is pretty calorie dense. Good workouts and good sleep.
4/20: 134.7 - Had good workouts and good sleep. We met some friends at a restaurant and I still had a hankering for something sweet when we got home. Managed to stop myself before I went over calories, but it was super close.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 240.0
4/18 240.0 The reality of this weekend: not enough water, eating and enjoying things I only typically make 1-2 times/year, some stress, some movement, not enough sleep, skipped the gym. Not reality: I did not eat 7,000 calories, so I know this will drop in a few days! Now back on the plan.
4/19 239.6 Back to the gym yesterday and back on track.
4/20 239.8 I know the process works. I just have to stay focused and not get impatient or lose hope. Everything for today is planned and logged, and I’m headed to the gym after work.

Been more careful about food choices and weighing. Nuts and nut butters are too tempting so they are banished to the back of the pantry, out of sight until I feel like I can eat them in a reasonable amount. I'll get there, my will power is weak right now though. Also getting in more steps and exercise in general. Determined to end this round lower than I started it.

Hi everyone, my last round here was in March 2019 (R69) with a weight of 185.6. Back now at 225 (ugh!) Unchecked thyroid levels = rapid weight gain during the height of covid quarantine. I don’t have a thyroid due to cancer and blah, blah, here I am today heavier than ever.
Anyway, this challenge was really helpful in keeping me accountable a few years ago, so I am jumping back in! Will do my first official weigh in tomorrow morning.
Love seeing some familiar faces still at it here. You are all AMAZING!
4/19: DNW
4/20: 224.8 (-.2) - getting over a terrible cold. Plan for the day is to go on a short walk, keep up with my water goal, and get my Fitbit back up and running.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 / 167.6 / Third day in a row holding my normal BMI weight so that makes me feel happy. Working on getting a bit of a cushion now so that upward fluctuations are not putting me back in the overweight category. This is really just an "on paper" goal that makes me feel good, but I am looking forward to it. The sun is out, we've started the day with a large brunch, and we're hoping to get out to the mountains for a bit of adventure yet today.
4/18 / 168.6 / Busy work from home day today but I squeezed in my Peloton ride as part of my lunch hour. My husband and I will walk our dog after supper instead now that we have daylight for longer. Turkey meatballs with broccoli and a cauliflower potato mash for supper tonight.
4/19 / 167.6 / My magic number of this round We are getting a big snowstorm here in Alberta. Busy day in the office with a walk at lunch. Waiting for my turn on the Peloton tonight.
4/20 / 167.6 / Long commute in this morning due to bad roads, but they were better by this evening. Got a walk in again at lunch. Chicken for dinner and then I'll ride the bike again. Days fly by with the commute taking up so much time.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17: 221.9 - I used to do these challenges, but the past few months I had some issues with depression and weighing and tracking were too much for me mentally, so I spent the last couple of months focusing on my mental health. I have been doing better and for the last few weeks I've started back tracking and making healthy changes. So, I was excited to see this challenge starting today so I can start back to daily weighing.
4/18: -222.0 Had a great day with my trainer yesterday and then went out for 3-mile walk. Today I tried a new recipe and it turned out really good.

Round 184 ( my 116th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
It's just over 4 weeks to DS wedding and I still messing about. What can I say that I haven't already. Feeling despondent. Need to lose this round, just lose!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!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

4/17 DNW – 14.72 miles, forgot to take scales away for the bank holiday weekend & couldn't post as I dropped my phone and the screen needs replacing:(.

Hi Back on MFP after a long hiatus and gaining more weight (gain 4 lbs last week on vacation). This is my first time using the community forum and I ran across this challenge. Im starting late but my goal is consistency. Just tracking first.
Highest weight: 236
Starting weight: 230 (had been holding at 226 before last week)
1st Goal Weight: 199

Hi I'm Allison. I've been experiencing 2 types of things regarding my weight. Either it stays the same - at 180, OR, I go 2 pounds down, then 2 pounds up - LOL. Time to change this. A couple of years ago I made it down to 160. But my calorie intake was too low and therefore unsustainable.
Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 - 180
4/18 - 180 ** Gonna try to be positive and make this work
4/19 - 179.6 ** I’m going to make today a good day food wise. My legs hurt yesterday - so I think today I’ll take a break from walking/treadmill/elliptical - and do some arm work. Will continue yoga, too. On Day 3 of Yoga with Adriene - her 30 day series which began in January. There’s so much I can’t do ! But, I’m still going to try.
4/20 - 179.4 ** Yesterday was successful in terms of me eating within my calorie range. And I did my activities. I see no reason why I can’t repeat this today.
4/21 - 179.4 ** Woke up early - felt hungry. Just drinking some hot coffee and waiting a few hours before eating breakfast. I hope to be active today outside - weather should be nice. And I want to get my bicycle out of the shed. Haven’t ridden it in at least 2 years. I readjusted my weight loss goal to 1 pound per week - and it put my calorie intake at 1290. Also I decided not to continue with the 30 day yoga series because I can’t do half the things the instructor does. I need to do in person classes - or get a teacher to help me figure out a routine that works for me.

4/21 - 151.7 - Salt? Lack of sleep? Who knows. I feel bloated, but not necessarily heavier so I think this is simply water retention. Baked chicken thighs with homemade garlic butter noodles and green beans. Same thing for lunch today. I'll take it easier on the noodles for lunch as tonight we are doing pizza (frozen kind) and watching the new Batman. BF has been itching to watch it since it was released on HBOMax on Monday but wanted BigBro and I around to watch with him (he can be sweet in the oddest ways, I swear...) I have a bell pepper and some mini peppers I can munch on to add for veggies tonight.

Previous Day's Comments4/17 - DNP
4/18 - Not quite enough water through the weekend. I did manage to get my 90oz yesterday but our Easter lunch (Linner?) is still bubbling in there this morning. Not sure if it's not sitting right or what. At least I don't feel sick, just uncomfortable. A bit of a lazy weekend, too. I think we all needed it after work weeks followed by crazy, hectic, busy weekends doing manual labor. Back on water this morning to hopefully get this bloat down a bit, I'm feeling extra bleh carrying it around. Not much else to report.
4/19 - Got some of that bloat to disappear and I feel better. Mirror isn't as friendly as the feeling, so good thing I'm focusing on health and not looks. Looks will come in time with a consistent healthy lifestyle. Tracked all food and stayed under "exercise" calories (which was just the little bit of walking I managed throughout the day). I'm content with that. High likelihood I'll have to travel next week for work. Looks like leaving Monday, returning Wednesday. I have a couple appointments and an event happening on Friday so it better not go longer than Thursday. Not much else to report, simply chugging along and trying to get back on track health-wise
4/20 - I'm okay with that. BF made steak and chicken fajitas for dinner using the bell peppers I got (thankfully he used them before they went bad!) It was a bit heavy as I got home later than usual due to weather (apparently people can't drive over 20-30mph down the highway when its sprinkling rain so it took me 2.5hrs to get home. Usually only takes 1.5 hours). Didn't look as squishy and bloated as yesterday so it's progress in the mirror at least. Feel a tad lighter, too. Breakfast is overnight oats again. I'm really loving this oats kick I'm on. They definitely keep me full until lunch, unlike my "egg mcmuffin" breakfast. Plus, I can customize it a little every day so it doesn't feel like I'm eating the same thing on repeat. Not much else to report.

Ok, made yesterday’s <179 goal today, in spite of a few jelly beans last night. We’re going to friends’ for dinner, so I’m eating light during the day. Happy Easter, Passover, Ramadan, and whatever else you might be celebrating! 🪺
4/18 - 179.6
Not a surprise after last night’s dinner. I didn’t try to count calories, though I may still enter what I remember. Other than jelly beans, nothing was too crazy caloric. Off this morning for evaluation for upcoming cataract surgery. Not looking forward to this adventure.
4/19 - 181
Time lag from Sunday + salt yesterday. Calories were good, so this is temporary. Eye eval went well yesterday and I’m scheduled for June surgeries, but I still have a lot of Qs and feel like I’m being rushed into this. I’m going to do a bunch of research and then decide whether to go forward or postpone. The only vision issue I have is night driving, and I rarely do that. We’ll see. Off to doggy school!
4/20 - 180.2
Ok, headed back in the right direction. I still feel I can hit my 178 goal this round. Agility class today, so I’ll get some exercise. Last week, Rory knocked me down—ran into me on a turn toward a jump. Thank goodness we have nice padded mats. Hoping to stay on my feet today!

Hi, I’m Kathy.
57, F, 5’8”
10th round! Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.
Return to MFP SW (Dec 2021): 267
HSW: 267
RSW: 240.0
UGW for now: 195, then reevaluate
Goal for this round: less than I started with
2022 goals: move more (okay, move some), eat mindfully
Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 240.0
4/18 240.0 The reality of this weekend: not enough water, eating and enjoying things I only typically make 1-2 times/year, some stress, some movement, not enough sleep, skipped the gym. Not reality: I did not eat 7,000 calories, so I know this will drop in a few days! Now back on the plan.
4/19 239.6 Back to the gym yesterday and back on track.
4/20 239.8 I know the process works. I just have to stay focused and not get impatient or lose hope. Everything for today is planned and logged, and I’m headed to the gym after work.
4/21 239.2 Slowly coming down. Was at the office all day yesterday but took the time to plan and take lunch/snack with me instead of being caught without. Hit the gym last night. Meals for today are planned and logged.

4/17 ~ 184.6 - 15,100 steps and 95 active minutes. Went for a beautiful 6k walk around a lake then a visit with the GDs they are so sweet. Easter dinner today and hopefully a good walk in. Hope everyone had a great round.
4/18 ~ 185.9 - 14,200 and 89. Got in a small walk and had a great dinner with family including dessert, chocolate and wine!! SO has gone off to work, looks like a few weeks so I should be able to get back to my lower weight soon. Just have to fight all this rain in the forecast. Oh so looking forward to sunny days.
4/19 ~ 186.6 - 17,600 and 118. Little unexplained jump up. My days have been like that the last few, not worried as I am still going in the right direction for calories and exercise. Got in a great walk yesterday in the pouring rain.
4/20 ~ 185.8 - 21,800 and 156. Long after work walk. NSV I have fit back into some of my spring clothes! Plus some of the clothes I've been wearing are a little too large. In the next few weeks I'll remove them from my closet. Scale reads are all over the place and I have a small road trip into Vancouver Thursday/Friday which I'm sure will effect my calorie intake and exercise but I am aware. The 170's are just going to take a few tries to get to, lol.
4/21 ~ 183.8 - 17,100 and 118. It was pouring rain but I got out there and got SOAKED! I do enjoy my walks even in the rain. I don't think I will be able to weigh in tomorrow or will be a different scale or maybe when I get back home late late Friday night, will see. Nice to see this 183 but after my road trip it'll bounce back up. I just have to get back here and I'll be fine!
