    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 196 ( my 128th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal this round again is to lose. We go on holiday in 4 weeks! No binges, keep within calories & macros.
    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.
    End of round 69 134.2 lbs

    Day/Weight/Comment
    8/15 139.4 – 7.98 miles walked yesterday & it was HOT !!!! Maybe in hindsight we shouldn't have gone during the middle of the day, but we kept hydrated. 2/3 exercise calories eaten back, need to get back to not eating many back!!
    8/16 138.8 – 11.87 miles walked yesterday, 10 degrees cooler than yesterday! We so much need some rain, the gardens are desperate!! I have been watering with a watering can out of the rain butt, I drained the last dregs out of that last night!! It keeps being forecast, but I've been able to count the odd few spots that have fell !!! ¾ exercise calories eaten back.
    8/17 137.8 – 8..63 miles walked, certainly not as hot, much more bearable, in fact a very pleasant temperature ! And lots of rain for the gardens. A third of calories eaten back; that's better and it shows on the scales.
    8/18 138.2 - 11.8 miles walked, 5/8 exercise calories eaten back.
    8/19 137.6 – no structured walking; childcare for 2 little DGS & 1.5 hour each way commute, but it's worth it to spend precious time with them.
    8/20 DNW - away for the weekend in our caravan & forgot to pack the scales ?. No structured walking cuz we had some work done in the house & then a 2 hour journey. 169 calories over.
    8/21 DNW - 8.74 miles walked. 146 calories over; cider at lunchtime & gin with tea! Little DGS#1 had sleep over with us in the caravan, after he fell out of bed during the night I slept very slightly listening out in case he did it again!! Taking him home later today and then we travel back home too.
    8/22 136.4 – happy with that figure after not weighing for a couple of days. No structured walking for reasons above, hence 240 calories over.

    8/23 137.2 – had a bad day yesterday, least said & move on ! 8.66 miles walked.
    8/24



    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – Covid is still out there despite lifting of practically all restrictions, take care, remain vigilant we're still in this together!

    ROUND 188-SW 179.2, ROUND 189-SW 180.2, ROUND 190-SW ?, ROUND 191-SW 174.4,

    ROUND 193-SW 179.6, ROUND 194-SW 179.2, ROUND 195-SW 172.4
    8/5: 172.4 not a bad place to start the challenge

    8/6: 171.8 weight is "pre" everything. i usually weigh in after i've had coffee and water. haven't had coffee or water yet this morning, so i'm figuring i'm at least a solid 172 lbs.

    8/7: 172.4

    8/8: 171.8

    8/9: 171.4 i am actually getting excited to see the 160's. maybe by round 197??? what an accomplishment that would be!

    8/10: 171.8 had 1/2 a blueberry muffin from sams club yesterday. had the other 1/2 this morning. i knew i shouldn't have, but who can just leave a muffin top just sitting there!

    8/11: 171.4 that muffin sent me on a carbohydrate binge. exceeded calories and days was primarily carbs and fat, very little protein. my indiscretions always takes a few days before they surface. wish it was cooler, i might have been able to walk a little bit of that off. this summer has been miserably hot. diet diligence for the rest of the challenge!

    8/12: 170.2 the loss has confused me. after the carb. binge, i have mostly been eating fruits and vegetables. i did also have chicken wings, which i think i mis-calculated nutrition on (on the higher side) so i probably had way less calories than is healthy.

    8/13: 172.6 and there is it.... my carbohydrate binge taking its vengeance on me. :neutral:

    8/14: 171.8

    ROUND 196
    SW: 171.8

    Day/Weight/Comment

    8/15: 171.8 I've seen this number so frequently, i shouldn't be surprised (and i'm not).

    8/16: 172.2 not sure if this is from not drinking enough yesterday, or if it's because i've already eaten scrambled eggs and tomatoes

    8/17: 172.2, 171.4, 171.2 take your pick. these are the options my scale gave me all within 1/2 hours time with no variable. do the spring scales do the same thing? ...back on topic....ate a maintain amount of calories yesterday, but it was high in carbs (ramen noodles). i did get to finally go for my walk! not as epic as the exclamation point implies. it was just a mile, but weight loss rate.

    8/18: 171.2 good calories, good macros, and a good 2 mile walk

    8/19: 171

    8/20: 170.4 since i usually weigh myself before i eat, and i have already eaten today this weight is probably just more nonsense my scale is spitting out.

    8/21: 171 over calories yesterday even with getting my walk in. seems like i do this at least once every challenge and always promise to correct myself.

    8/22: 171.2 very disappointed with how i'm doing this round. reading my notes back, i should have been expecting such a poor result.

    8/23: 172 i'm fine with this weight. i'm probably the same weight as yesterday. i usually weigh myself wearing my exercise (running shorts/shirt) clothes. today i'm wearing a t-shirt and and sweats which i'm sure weigh more. this will be my last post for this round. i will be taking off for almost a week. i'll be posting this in the new challenge, so i can find it easily upon my return. sure hope i can behave myself without having a scale to weigh food, or a scale to weigh myself.

    8/24:

    @quiltingjaine - sorry you're experiencing vertigo. I've had it a few times and I live in dread that it will come back. One time I did go to the doc and he did this procedure (I forget the name) that basically "flings" the crystals in your inner ear area to some corner so they are not floating about anymore (I'm sure a medical person can be more accurate about this). That seemed to work.

    So, yesterday started well and ended badly. I got into snacking after dinner. Starting now, I have 2 days home alone. I will eat on my own schedule and not have a family dinner every night. DH and DD1 are off to move her stuff from one house to another at her University.

    Yesterday was Home Alone day one:
    Sandwich for dinner. Because I could.
    Early dinner. Because I could.
    Woke up late today. Because I could.

    Home Alone day two:
    Cookies for dinner. Because I could.
    Dinner at 4:00. Because I could.
    They coming back. Because they can.

    I enjoyed my 3 days of IF. Would do it if I lived alone. But I like my breakfast at about 9:30 and family dinner can be as late as 7:30.

    Family life stops me doing a 16/8 IF, but 14/10 is still a good goal for me.

    All good. Waiting for the scales to notice I have been eating at deficit.

    Ouch! I did not go over! I’ll blame it on weekend warrior lactic acid.

    Yesterday went wrong. We had some sort of mild flu in the house, feeling exhausted for no reason. Which led to sugar cravings and big overeating. Looks like this will be around where I gain.

    I have done this challenge before and it really helped keep me on track to healthy living. I have since gained most of that weight back (and then some) but I'm not discouraged. I am a 21-year old varsity college athlete who is just looking to lean up a bit - taking small goals at a time as weight-loss isn't my goal - just trying to lean myself into a healthier lifestyle.

    8/15: 193.0 - this past weekend was horrid but luckily this is my last week back home before I move back up to school for training camp and my Crossfit gym. Between the two of those I'm pretty sure I'll struggle eating enough rather than the other way around as practice and Crossfit are calorie scorcher. Looking forward to it though and today I'm going hiking so that's a plus!
    8/16: 187.4 - great hike and cal deficit yesterday so hoping this isn't a fluke
    8/17: 188.0
    8/18: 188.0 - binged a bit last night so happy to see no change today
    8/19: 188.8 - no exercise yesterday but big deficit. Big move and changes happening this weekend.
    8/20: 190.0
    8/21: 188.8 - moving today and back to the crossfit gym
    8/22: DNW - scale was out of batteries and it was an incredibly busy day so couldn't be bothered to change 'em
