@Cluelessmama1979 Of course you can use it! I can't claim authorship, I borrowed it too (with permission) from another challenge. I recently was able to cross off 200's and 190's. I've gained some back so I had to "unscratch" the 190's one, but I am determined that this 200's thing is very temporary (and it's a lot of work to go thru and fix it on all the challenges) so it's still crossed off. My goal in the next couple of weeks is to get that scratched 200 to become an honest woman!3 -

I don't know what's up with the jump today, except that I weighed in after I drank water and coffee. I'm not worried, it will be back down tomorrow. 🤷
@Cluelessmama1979 I personally count as a success the days that I'm over MFP's set goal but still in a deficit. MFP wants me at 1412 to lose a lb/week but anywhere under 1700 I'm happy with. I self-sabotage if I get too strict with calorie counting, though. It's definitely a personal choice!4 -
Newbie question
: How do you edit your reply to reflect the new daily weight, etc?
Do I just copy and paste my original post and add to it?1 -
Newbie question : How do you edit your reply to reflect the new daily weight, etc?

That's correct
You can only edit your original post for an hour
So, I go back to my old one and copy and paste it in. Others keep a Word document that they copy from.3 -

I switched my goal to maintenance on my second day on the app For my peronality, it's not good to see a glaring red number if I go even 1kcal over my goal (makes me feel like I need to punish myself or something). Now I just make sure that I have around 500kcal remaining from my maintenance calories by the of the day and I'm golden.
For me personally, it's much more motivating to see that I'm still in, for example, a 250kcal deficit as opposed to a 250kcal surplus from my pound a week goal set by MFP

@AshesSquared so I weighed in this morning pre-fluids at 259.4. I had a glass of water and 1 cup of coffee, then started reading comments and saw yours, so I weighed myself again, so that we could see an example of exactly how much these calorie-free fluids weigh. I didn't do anything other than sit down and drink the coffee/water, and it was at max 10 minutes between weigh-ins: 260.6. That's an increase of 1.2 lbs just from a relatively small mug of coffee and even less water. If you have a normal amount of coffee in the morning (anything bigger than my lil styrofoam cup) and a decent amount of water, it will change even more. Last time I was losing weight I remember a girl in my chatroom reporting something like 4 lbs of difference pre/post coffee.
What's in your tummy matters. The time of day matters too, even under half an hour! Daily fluctuations are super normal!
Also thanks for the feedback on my "under goal", both you and @bite_by_bite ! I think I will count it as long as it's in my range!
@12473k I tend to just quote my old post and then delete the parts i don't need rather than copying it... easier that way on mobile, for me!5 -

You know how somedays it feels like everything can go wrong goes wrong? Today was that day. Everything was fine food and exercise wise, though, it was the life stuff that sucked. Anyway, off to bed, maybe tomorrow will be a brighter one.

Hi! I’m excited to join in another challenge! I started back in October and was 163. I maintained 152 in April. I hope to see 150 this month. My main focus will be on my workouts. I’ve signed up for a Step Challenge.
Heaviest weight: 165
May 1st weight: 154
Current weight: 150
May weight lost so far: 4
Weight lost this year: 7
Goals:
🌼 Weekday 45 min. base runs
🌼 Weekend long runs / Zumba
🌼 Track steps / weight & log daily
🌼 Take rest days as needed
🌼 Go out 3 times max weekly
🌼 Eat half of restaurant food
🌼 Drink 8 glasses of water daily
May 01 - 154 (went out/ walk 2 hr)
May 02 - 153 (leftovers/ walk 1 hr)
May 03 - 150 (went out/ walk 45m)
Ok, this is likely TMI. I’ve chosen to go through a divorce and move this month so the 5K goal in June is out for now and my weight is kinda all over the place. I’m still going to be active, but I may be fairly inconstant this month.

Thanks Jill for keeping the monthly challenges going! :-)
💐May Challenge💐
I am ready for an Mahvelous May too!
Mary 65 now from Pennsylvania. Goal weight 122 lbs. Was there in 2009/10 and kept it off for about 5 years and got lazy. I do low Carb 15+/- 3 Net Carbs/day(My body seems to hang on to Carbs/not burn them),1000-1200 calories daily, 2 meals on my days off(3) and 3 meals on my work days (4, long hours) and I only exercise on my days off due to the long work days.
Heaviest weight: 255 lbs, twice :-(
9/14/20-255 lbs. Started a new job without a micromanager.
5/3/21-240.5 lbs Emergency Gallbladder surgery
5/14/21-232.2 lbs. Started MFP, low carb and calorie restricted diet while recovering. Actively trying to lose now.
6/1/21-228.8 lbs

2/1/22-157.4 lbs
3/1/22-155 lbs
4/1/22-156.4 lbs
5/1/22-158.8 lbs :-( No way is this actual with all the Elliptical miles Friday, yesterday and stayed way under calories for what I was allotted. Hoping for a whoosh soon. Did Elliptical 300 minutes for 22.3 miles in first session and 54 minutes for 4.2 miles for 26.5 miles total today. Hopefully that gets me heading downward again. (Did long times on Friday 228 minutes and Saturday 240 minutes too.)

Daily Goals:
🌱Drink @ least 90 ounces of water

May 01- 158.8 lbs. :-( Can't believe this with all the Elliptical miles Friday, yesterday and stayed way under calories for what I was allotted. Hoping for a whoosh soon. Did Elliptical 300 minutes for 22.3 miles in first session and 54 minutes for 4.2 miles for 26.5 miles total today. Hopefully that gets me heading downward again. (Did long times on Friday 228 minutes and Saturday 240 minutes too.)
Realized I forgot to post yesterday, so posting a 2fer. Had a woosh. Probably, as I thought, water retention from my trip, plane ride and not eating my normal and only casual walking for exercise, due to being away. My previous low, about a month ago was 147.6 lbs, so hopefully I'll get back to that soon.
