10 pounds to lose challenge- February 1, 2025-April 30, 2025

SunnyDays930 · March 30

@faurotann I watch TV while on the treadmill. Usually an episode of Bargain Block. It is 2 guys in Detroit that rehab the most dilapidated houses. They are hilarious. There is no way I could read on the treadmill. I would fall off.

I’m on a 7-day road trip visiting relatives and friends in Idaho & Montana. Home Tuesday

also found my new favorite protein drink

Thanks, Karen. I'll look for that. 30 grams of protein for only 180 calories is great. Have a great trip. My daughter just got back from Idaho. It was cold.

Thank you

@RubyRed427

for continuing this challenge. Thanks to everyone for the useful advice I read on this thread. There's lots of things I need to look at and consider, thanks all. Although I only look at this page once a week, it is reassuring to know that others are in the same situation as me and we are all making progress!

My aims for this month are to: get back to being active, reduce my bread/pasta/rice/potato intake, try to get at least 7 hours sleep a night and to return to tracking my meals - to get into 130-ville!

My name is Nikki, and I'm 5'3" (on a good day!). I'm based on the south coast in the UK. I'm in my 50s and work full time as a teacher. I'm pretty active - but there's always room for some more.

My GW is 133lb
my UGW is 126 - although that is very optimistic!
I weigh in on Thursdays, but get around to posting at the weekends

Time to get back into tracking and start being more accountable to myself! Good luck everyone with this round of weight loss!
06 Feb - 143.2lb (1.4lb) Not a great week, but no excuses. I need to get my head back into this! Any tips to get me out of this rut?
13 Feb - 142.6 (0.6) That will have to do. My head is still elsewhere unfortunately. Thanks for

@200Karen

for the idea about water and protein - it is something I will look into. Thanks also to

@Walela617

for the positivity - there's still a way to go until I'm happy with what I see in the mirror!
I'm off to Rome for a residential trip with the school next week - I'm not sure I will be able to curb the carbs and drink lots of water. However, we are going to do a lot of walking. Good luck to everyone next week!
20 Feb - 143.4lb (+0.8) Considering how much and what I ate in Rome - that weight measurement actually isn't that bad! I'm not a fan of coffee, so that wasn't a problem! However, I ate a lot of pasta, a lot of pizza and some fast food - not my first choices for meals that's for sure. However, I did an awful lot of walking - over 18,000 steps on Monday, over 30,000 steps on Tuesday, over 23,000 steps on Wednesday and over 20,000 steps on Thursday - a lot more than I normally do!! I'm looking forward to eating salads and vegetables next week, with the hope I can get to the end of February weighing less than at the start!!
27 Feb - 142.6lb (-0.8) I know it's not much, but I'll have it!
TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS FOR FEBRUARY: 0.6 That is really quite rubbish, so I am hoping that I will get my head back into things. Work has been quite stressful and one of my sister's is in hospital after complications with a heart operation, so my head hasn't been in a diet-mode. She is getting better, so hopefully I will be around for proper meals and thinking about my health. Good luck everyone with their weight loss this month!
06 Mar -141.4lb (-1.2)😎 - Yay! I can't say what I did, but I'll take it. Well done to everyone who has lost weight this week! You are an inspiration and remind me that it can be done!!
13 Mar - 141.0lb (-0.4) 😎- A pitiful loss! 😞 Well done to everyone who is on track with their weight loss. I need to get my head back into this, especially now the days are getting longer and it is getting warmer. No excuse not to go out and be active! Good luck to everyone next week!
20 Mar - 142.6lb (+1.6) 😴
27 Mar - 143.6lb (+1.0) 😴
TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS FOR MARCH - GAIN 1.0lb! 😓 - Not a great month! Time to get my butt into gear and not use any number of excuses not to focus on making better food choices. I hope everyone else is doing better than me!! Let hope next month is better!
