JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | ROUND 6
Replies

Woohoo I'm ready for my second round! The last one was honestly so insightful. I started and ended at the same weight but also began lifting more seriously in that time frame. I've read that it can take up to a few weeks for the initial water retention that your body uses to repair microtears in the muscle to subside. So once again I'll be paying attention to the mirror and my measurements as well as the number on the scale.
Starting Weight: 180.5 (5/1)
Current Weight: 173.5 (6/1)
Goal Weight: 140 (???)
06/02 – 173.5 – Had a good day at the gym yesterday! Today I'm making black bean brownies.
06/03 – 173.5 – Did I perhaps go overboard on the brownies? I plead no contest.
06/04 – 176.0 – Wheeew. The last thing I'd like to do is overanalyze but I have two ideas about this. I've been at the gym consistently but yesterday was one of the first days where I ended up eating back my calories, and they were mostly from carbs (healthier ones though, hellooooo Chipotle bowl!) which I've been trying to avoid. My second thought is that I had to wake up a LOT earlier than normal this morning so maybe that had something to do with it? Still I'm not worried though, I'm just trying to be mindful of my actions and my body's reactions!

06/02 141.2 Stayed under calorie goal
06/03 141.4
06/04 143.6 Had a late night dinner & too many overall calories. Also ever since I told my husband my plan to not have alcohol for 10 days, he's been trying to sabotage it. Yesterday he brought me an opened beer. I drank half and dumped the rest when he wasn't looking2 -

So I ate nearly perfect yesterday and where did that get me...
I drank a lot of water yesterday too so I don't understand.

This is my 2nd block of 10 days. A little public accountability is not a bad thing at all. As it happens I do weigh myself every day (almost) and take measurements on Mondays. My scale is a digital one that logs to the half pound.
When I came back to MFP 8 1/2 weeks ago I weighed 300 lbs. I've weighed myself almost every day, taken measurements every Monday, and recorded my food & exercise every day. I'm also keeping track of days since I last had alcohol, since I know only too well that drinking (besides being empty calories) always leads to eating that has nothing to do with being hungry.
I didn't do as well as I had hoped to in the first 10 day challenge. I will try to do better this time.
Day Weight Comments
06/01 287.5 lbs at the weigh-in for this 10 day challenge.
06/02 287.5 lbs No change. Because of that I will today (1) watch the carbs and (2) watch the intake of sodium.
06/03 286.5 Down 1 lb. Yay! Careful food choices and over 7 miles walking yesterday got me jump-started.
06/04 286.5 lbs No change. We went to the OC for an all-day celebration of a nephew's HS graduation. 2 hours each way. I avoided all things sugary, starchy, high-carb, and turned down every offer of beer and wine. So getting to today undamaged is OK. I got walking in, but didn't make my 10k steps.

Must try harder than the last round. Albeit I lost a lb I would ideally love to lose more than that in the next ten days. I'm going again so that I can try and stay focussed.
Starting weight 137.2
Day Weight Comments
06/02 136.8 lbs off to a good start. Had lots of water, walked my 10,000 steps and went to yoga last night. Was good with my eating also. It must be paying off. Must repeat
06/03 136 lbs heading in the right direction. Hope the brownie I had doesn't register.
06/04 137 lbs whoops although I did weigh myself in my pjs, could they be the extra lb - clutching at straws but here's hoping.

06/02 136.4 rest day. Went on a school field trip to the aquarium and then the beach. Packed myself a salad for lunch. Staying with my parents for the weekend and my mom cooked my faves. Starchy foods. I'll be happy to maintain this 10 days
6/3 136.8 rest day. I did go to the beach again and did some walking. First meal was at a buffet. Pistachios for snack. And favorite home cooked foods for dinner. I am noticing the munchies TOM will start soon.
6/4 138.8. yikes two lbs. But this is normal considering how I ate yesterday. Must drink water to combat retention. Zaxbys for lunch. My son wanted the birthday cake shake with a whopping 900 cals in it. Thought about it and decided okay bc I knew at most he would drink a third of it. Told my mom I almost did not get it bc it had so many calories. She was like oh you don't need to worry ab that you need to eat. Smh I was like I was thinking about Jack do u think he needs to drink 900 calories. Not worried ab myself bc I'm good after a couple tastes. More than half the shake is left. My son and I got two walks in today. Almost 3 miles.

Ok - I'll do this again! The last round was my first time joining the 10 day challenge, but the public accountability really helped me focus. I'm officially maintaining within a 137-142lb weight range but was nudging the very top of this at the beginning of the last round. I'm aiming to get to the bottom of this range by the end of the next 10 days and maintain there to give myself a bit of leeway on hols.
Start of round 5 -141.8
End of round 5 - 137.8
Goal for the end of this round - 137.0
06/02 - 138.8 (yesterday was a rest day)
06/03 - 138.4 (weight training yesterday. Lots of walking planned for today)
06/04 - 138.8 (birthday pizza last night. Weight training and core conditioning today)
06/05 - 140.2 (I'm OK with this - my weight is usually up a pound or two on a Monday after a weekend! Bodycombat class tonight)

Today 151- it's down from yesterday so that's cool but still up from when we started this challenge... kind of discouraged but I will keep logging and exercising!0
-
That's my first full round, I hope to lose 1.8kg before 24th of July so for this round I want to lose 1kg! For me it's a lot, but seeing your progress I think it will inspire me to push myself to do so
SW:60.1kg
CW:59.8kg
GW:58.0kg
Let's start the countdown (hopefully)
06/02 60.0kg I stayed under my calories limit and even exercised, so I hope that's just a water retention! Gonna drink more water today and see what will happen
06/03 60.0kg even though I promised myself that I won't go over limit I did and didn't drink that much water... Too many temptations during the weekend and too little time to focus on a goal. Exercised today and I hope that tomorrow the weight will drop #fingerscrossed
06/04 59.5kg yay, i'm always happy seeing my weight drops :> I need to cut short eating sweets and high in sugar food, I started to put them into 'snacks' category instead of putting them into 'lunch' etc as an dessert and turns out snacks take up to 1/3 of my daily calorie allowance gonna work on it!
06/05 59.7kg I ate tons of food in the evening yesterday, so that's not a surprise. I cut down carbs and gonna continue doing that I went for a run, stayed under calorie limit. overall I fell more healthy, my muscles slowly start to show and everything goes in the right direction I am very happy with my progress even if it's not a progress in my weight

I tried jumping in on this thread in May, but May is always a bad month for me. I thought I would try again now. June 1st was "new start" day for me, so I did weigh myself then. I am 51 and 5'4".
06/01 - 161.4
06/05 - 157.6 Day 5 of making good food choices and eating at a deficit. A little exercise (walking/running) but that is not my focus right now.2 -
I'm back from vacation, got home last night....ready to jump back in. I did a couple of "give me 10" rounds before we left and it was a great way to keep track of my daily fluctuations and watch my progress
05/26 - 161.6lbs This is my weight from the morning we left
06/02-vacation
06/03-vacation
06/04-vacation
06/05- 166.8lbs -I'm feeling very puffy in the fingers and feet this morning so I expect a couple of lbs of water retention from all the salt and air travel. Going to get back to my regular eating routine right away and get back on track

Round 5 start weight 51.8/end weight 50.8kg
Round 6 start weight 50.7kg/goal weight for this round 49.9kg
I'm very close to my overall goal weight 49kg, please don't judge, I know 49kg seems very little but I have a very small frame so that's the weight I feel comfortable with.
6/02 50.7kg This challenge I'm going to try and not log all of my food and just try to not overeat without calorie counting. Trying to prepare myself for weight maintaining.
6/03 50.6kg had 2 pizza slices last night which is an improvement as I usually would eat almost the whole thing
6/04 50.1kg pleasantly surprised this morning, definitely didn't expect to loose weight so quickly

Goal: 132
Ultimate Goal: 130
06/02 - 135 stayed on task for logging, very happy about that. Probably ate a little too much at dinner, but not that concerned. Glad to be kept honest!
06/03 - 134.4 surprised me! Did some emotional eating before dinner. But I guess the long walk with my dogs and the 1 hour and 15 minute gym workout helped. But this is good, it allows me to recognize my weaknesses. And I am on task w/logging!
06/04 - 134.4 I am thrilled, since I spent most of the day at a brewery (Sierra Nevada) doing a tour and then of course eating and drinking. Logged it all Got my 5 mile run in already today. woohoo!!!
06/05 - 134.4 stuck, for now! But it's not up and that's good so I will continue to move forward.
