JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | ROUND 6

This is the part I hate about weighing myself everyday vs every week, it's always zigzagging and drives me a little nuts. But I am definitely learning what foods effect my body positively and what doesn't so I do like that aspect of it.
What I've learned: Even though chinese vegetable soup is very healthy, the sodium in it is obviously not. Might have to start making my own.

My goal is to be down 2# by the end of this round which means 146.
Feb was 162# ... I'm almost halfway to goal of 132#
06/02 148.2 Ate clean, under goals and hiked. Lots and lots of hiking, scrambling over rocks and tree roots.
06/03 148.6 Too many carbs. No exercise - was too tired from the day before. Today will be better.
06/04 149.2 I'm on the yoyo portion... exercised and ate well. Time to thaw out some chicken breast again.
06/05 148.8 Heading back down. Took a break from exercise yesterday. Watched some youtube videos by a bodybuilder /nutritionist to get more information on how different foods affect the body. Interesting stuff. Back to gym today. Grilled chicken salad for dinner tonight. Gonna pick up some asparagus. Found this interesting: "Your muscles contain 75 percent water, same as the amount in your brain. Fat contains only 10 percent water. This is less than bone, which contains 22 percent water. The difference in fat and muscle tissue may be due to glycogen. Muscle contains glycogen, the storage form of glucose; glycogen is 75 percent water." I also read that to burn fat you need water. Chug-a-lug!

GW for here: 143
Goal issues: night time snacks and beverages (esp. wine)
6/02/17 144.6
6/03/17 145.5 That's the wrong direction but I'm not upset. Yesterday was leg day at the gym. I ate well, had no snacks after dinner, or any alcohol. So a good start.
6/04/17 145.4 OK, today I'm disappointed. Oh well, gotta keep on. Things to celebrate: no snacks after dinner, no alcohol. Not so great: Amish donuts in the AM. Good thing they're only available once a week.
6/05/17 145.1 No snacks after dinner, no alcohol. Ate dinner very late (like 9PM) but it was just veggies and ff tzatziki. SMH.3 -
06/02 141.2 Stayed under calorie goal
06/03 141.4
06/04 143.6 Stayed within carb limit and met my protein goal, but had a late 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 -
Well I'm sure I posted yesterday but can't find it - at least this morning was a little more encouraging - slowly does it!...

5'0", female, 32 years old
06/02 137.2 I've been moving less and eating more the past few days. That's not the right way to go! OK, I'll get on my elliptical tonight!
06/03 136.5
06/04 136.2 I've really been seeing a difference in my shoulders and stomach. Lots still to go, but happy to see the progress.
06/05 136.6 Woke up still stuffed from the shiritaki I ate last night. Food doesn't digest that quickly, so not sure if that's having an effect.

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.
06/05 286.5 lbs. No change. The scale flickered at 286 but went to the half pound. Resetting it and trying again, and moving it to somewhere else on the bathroom floor -- hands up those who have NOT tried that one
-- did not give me the lower weight so no change it is. Back to carb watching today.

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.
06/05 137.2 lbs weekends are my undoing. Hopefully been much better today.1 -
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!
06/05 – 174.5 – Yesterday was leg day and the DOMS is so real. Today's a rest day so we'll see if that has any affect tomorrow.

Yesterday's eating was terrible so I'm not surprised weight was up. Still dealing with water weight. On 5/29 I was 171.0 lbs so I'm trying to get back to that.

I am definitely down for this challenge! I've been doing this on my own for the past 3 months now but it will be nice to have more people active in it. I'm down 15lbs since March and I have my next fitness evaluation at my gym on the 5th of June. I've been working really hard this past month and cannot wait to see my results.
Female, 26, 5'10.5" - Starting weight: 330 Current weight: 315 Goal weight: 226.
06/02 - 312.8 I'm excited to start this challenge but I've been feeling very off lately. My body chemistry is all out of whack because I ate more than normal on Memorial Day and then again on my anniversary on the 31st.
06/03 - 309.8 It is been such a struggle lately, so I am impressed by the number on the scale today.
06/04 - 312.4 I've been struggling really hard with my nutrition lately. My anxiety has been higher again and I definitely see a correlation between that and my eating. Starting today, I am going to try and overcome these food cravings.
06/05 - 315.2 All of the unhealthy eating lately has affected my digestive system and I hate how my body is feeling today. This is not how I want to feel, which is exactly why I am back on track today and making healthier food choices.

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)
06/06 - 139.4 (ate well yesterday and concentrated on keeping my protein up. 5k run this evening - I'm writing it down here so that I don't back out of it when I get home from work!

06/06 134.2 lbs how did that happen, much rubbing of the eyes when stood on the scales this morning because couldn't believe it. 10000 steps and lots of water yesterday may have been why.3 -
