    R5: Ended at 136.6. Down 1.4.

    R6 SW: 136.4

    R6 GW: 135

    Day Weight Comments

    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.

    6/5 *138.2* Yay going down. I chugged water yesterday. Got my walks in and did a 30 min strength Sworkit last night.

    6/6 *137.2* Got 2 mile walk in yesterday, over 10,000 steps, and did a 30 min strength Sworkit last night. I had around 1400 calories yesterday. Drank plenty of H20. Looking forward to walking and working out today. Hopefully I can get my 3 walks in today but work is looking pretty busy so hopefully I can squeeze in to but that means I need to buckle down and work lol.

    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!

    06/06 148.6 Not earth shattering but headed in right direction despite having corn on the cob. Today, I think, for this one day, I'll dedicate myself to being truly virtuous: no candy, no alcohol, just fuel for the body.

    I'm currently at my plateau weight. I need to break through this.

    6/1 148.8
    6/2 148.8 I can give up wine for 10 days (I think). ANYTHING to get off my plateau weight.

    6/4 148.0
    6/5 147.6 bye-bye plateau! I watched "In Defense of Food" on Netflix over the weekend. This may change how I eat and feed my family.

    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

    06/06- 164.0lbs - I feel like I peed every half hour yesterday....got rid of a lot of water bloat LOL. Now to get rid of the buffet, deserts I had every night and days by the pool bar.

    GW 130
    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.

    6/06/17 145.1 No snacks after dinner, no alcoholic drinks (there was a little rum in dessert.)

    The last four wts would be fine IF it hadn't been nearly a pound less on day one. #@&*@!

    06/02 141.2 Stayed under calorie goal
    06/03 141.4
    06/04 143.6
    06/05 144.2 I think this is because I'm constipated. Will drink lots of water today.

    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.
    06/06 – 172.5 – Weighed myself a couple times to make sure it was true! I was very grumpy and hungry yesterday which is normally a recipe for some seriously discouraging overeating, but I stayed under my goal!!! I think giving my body a break from exercise was a good thing too. All I want to do is be under 170 for the first time in forever.

    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.
    06/06 - 311.8 I am still feeling like crap today, my midsection is hurting a lot but I'm trying to push through. Yesterday was my first day back on my nutrition plan and it was rough. I was so hungry last night, I had my evening snack and still felt hungry but I went to bed instead. Honestly, I was close to eating whatever but I fought the urge and won. It's nice to see the number on the scale going down again. Today is day 2 of eating better and so far so good. I worked out for 50 minutes this morning, even though my midsection is hurting, I pushed through.

    Starting weight: 148
    today's weight: (June 1) 134.8
    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 :o 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.
    06/06 - 134.5 So I have no problem working out. And I have started logging consistently w/this challenge (thank you). So, it has thee calorie intake, too many snacks. Next hump to tackle in order to make the scale move in the right direction!

    06/02 - 176. Walked 6k around the lake
    06/03 - 175.3. Ran yesterday . C25K week 4
    06/04 - 175.4 I'm good with this. I'm trying to slow my loss rate down so I'm playing with my calories and nutrition. Ran yesterday morning and it's so little but I'm so proud. I've a long way to go but I'm slowly getting there. Today's goal +20,000 step walk
    06/05 - 174.8 Went for a 2 hour walk. Ended the day on 25,000+ steps.
    06/06 - 174.6 Lunchtime and evening walk upped calories to just over 1572. See if this holds.

    Initial/final goal weight: 144.4 lbs | 115 lbs
    Start/goal weight for this round: 137.2 lbs | 135 lbs

    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.
    06/06 135.3 Yesterday was really weird for me. I had to basically force myself to eat because I felt full all day from eating one pack of Shirataki the night before! Usually I'm ravenous. Still feeling blocked up from the noodle, so I'm curious to see the scale tmr.

    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.

    06/06 286 lbs. Down another 1/2 lb. Good deal! I'm sure being part of the 10K steps a day and "No late night snacking" challenges is helping me here.

    If your digestive system is off perhaps some pro and prebiotics would help.

    I'm in. This is my first round.

    Initial weight: 125.7 lbs.

    A Normal Goal weight that isn't too thin or thick: 115 lbs.
    -Plus, if I weigh myself DAILY, I can maintain it. I agree with the OP. I am one of those people that need to weigh myself everyday and watch it. If I don't, my weight creeps up. I know this from a lifetime of experience.

    I'm only 5'0" :kissing_smiling_eyes:
    -But, I don't have a tiny, little bone structure, so 115 is a good weight for me and a good goal. 125 is starting to become too heavy for my frame and height. I don't want it to get worse and I don't want to develop health problems.

    06/02 125.7 Of course, my very first day I decide to diet, I totally blew it and ate the amount a man five times my size would require while maybe doing something strenuous like lifting cars all day or something. Self-sabotaging myself is something that I am pretty good at.
    06/03 125.7 I had to eat under the calories to make up for 6/2.
    06/04 125.7 I was still trying to make up for 6/2.
    06/05 125.7 I was still under calories due to 6/2. I am one of those people that suck in every calorie and hold it forever and ever. Yeah me!
    06/06 125.5 woot woot Finally can see the scale budge. whew.

    Starting weight (5/13): 179.0
    Round 5 start (5/22): 173.4
    Goal weight 163, by July 4 and 157 by August 31.

    Round 6:
    06/02: 172.2 - Feeling ok. Anticipating going over calories today.
    06/03: 172.4 - I did go over calories. Counted it all as scary as that was! NSV! We'll see what tomorrow brings.
    6/04: 172.8 - Went over a bit, not too much
    6/05: 173.4 - Stayed the course
    6/06: 174 - This is disappointing. Today, I am drinking tons of water and hoping for some sort of reward. I suppose this is a good exercise in fluctuation, but I need a win!
