06/04 275.6 Not so bad since had huge breakfast with step-daughter visiting from out of town, no exercise.
06/05 275.0
06/06 273.2 Half way through the 10 days, Half way to my goal. YAY!
06/07 274 No exercise and ate hardly anything. Anxiety. Husband has been having issue. Dr scheduled urgent colonoscopy (for tomorrow) because of CTscan results. Showed 4 lymph nodes on liver (histery of cancer in family). Praying results were wrong. We were going to leave today for Missions conference in Mass and week vacation, now postponed until Friday (depending on colonoscopy results).
06/08 274.0 So if things with husband aren't enough, let's add something to the wife, "Diabetes Type 2." Have lost 12lbs in 3 months and 30" overall and that was my reward. Dr. has put me on a pill and informed me, "You're doing great, keep going, this can be reversed." So off to do more exercise during the day and cut carbs/sugar even more. I can do this!!! My brother in-law, reversed his diabetes and he was diabetic way longer than I. Husbands colonoscopy is today, prayers appreciated that whatever they find is not cancerous. Heading to Massachusetts in the morning for a week. Have every intention to stick to workout and diet plan, no matter what friends are doing but still have fun.
06/09 275.2 Off balance, no exercise and food schedule out of whack. Need to get back on track, can't take care of husbands needs if I'm not healthier.
06/10 273.6 Back on track. Husband's biopsy came back positive for colon cancer, next step is PET scan to make sure what's on the liver is not cancer, if not then onto surgery to remove infected colon area. If it has spread, surgery on hold and chemo starts. Praying liver is spotless.

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!
6/07: 172.4 Better. So motivated to get down to the 160s and to 163- (160s are CODE YELLOW
)
6/08: 171.4
6/09: 172.0
6/10" 171.0 - Leaving for vacation tomorrow. Taking my scale.

Ever her - Let's see if we can do these next 5 or so pounds together....I'm 171 with 157 goal...I am on vacation this week.
"Would like to get under 171 by tomorrow, but we'll see. I've been under my calories and worked out everyday this week, but last week was a bust and it seems it's still affecting me."2 -

Ok - I'll do this again! The last round was my first 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! )
06/07 - 140.0 (sigh - I didn't back out of my run, but I did find it quite hard and I'm really aching this morning. I also got the munchies afterwards and might have done a bit of late night snacking
So - my own fault really)
06/08 - 139.2 (Yay - no permanent gain! Weight training yesterday)
06/09 - 139.8 (ugh - what is going on - I'm down one day and straight back up the next!?! Rest day yesterday - maybe that's what it was?! Weight training this evening)
06/10 - 139.2 (down.......)
06/11 - 139.6 (up again!)
Well that wasn't exactly how I wanted it to go - perhaps I'll join you for the next round too!

Round 4 start weight 52.8kg/end weight 52.7kg
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
6/05 49.9kg
6/06 50.3kg
6/07 50.4kg
6/08 50.0kg
6/09 49.6kg
6/10 49.9kg went out for dinner yesterday and chose to eat a bit less- ate all the meat and only half of carbs on the plate. Then got green tea ( instead of cappucino I was planning) and didn't eat the buiscuit base on my dessert. NSV as I usually don't think about making better choices and just eat whatever I want when going out.
6/11 49.6kg not too bad!2 -
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.
06/07 286 lbs. No change. A bad and very long day (work) that left me really fried. Way short of the mark on my 10K steps challenge. I could have given in to the fridge and the scotch but did neither though I was sorely tempted.
06/08 285.5 lbs. Down another 1/2 lb. *happy anti-starch dance*
06/09 285 lbs. Down another 1/2 lb. Excellent! I was short on my steps yesterday so this is a nice surprise.
06/10 285 lbs. No change. But that's OK. I'm already down 2.5 lbs this round. *thumbs up*
06/11
Previous 10 day challenges: 1.5 lbs lost total.
This 10 day challenge: 2.5 lbs lost total.
Accumulated 10 day challenges: 4 lbs lost total.3 -
Last day of round 6!
I started round 6 at 146 and today 06/11 I'm 144.0! I lost a total of 2 pounds this round but still saw the scale up and down! I'd like to keep things a bit more consistent next round. See all on round 7 discussions!3 -

06/11 272.4 Didn't quite reach my goal but, down 3.2 lbs for the week. I'll take it. Been a rough week, Husband diagnosed with Cancer, me diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, and foreclosure on house. Not sure how much more I can take before I have to scream. My biggest change, I didn't turn to FOOD for my comfort. I turned to prayer and my faith in a God who is still on the throne and knows what He's doing. He's been doing it for a long time and I know He is faithful to provide, deliver, and heal.

06/04 180
06/05 179
06/06 178 - know a lot of this will be water as I'm in my first week but encouraging anyway! Have now logged everything for 7 days in a row and able to eat a lot of the things I do normally but watching portion sizes.
06/07 177
06/08 176 - expecting an increase tomorrow due to change in routine and weighing before breakfast rather than after. Still likely to be mostly water as I'm only aiming to lose 0.5-1 lb per week and am eating 1600-1800 calories.
06/09 177
06/10 177
06/11 177 - happy with my finish here - I've now logged for 11 days in a row - will join in the next one to keep me motivated in this tricky next couple of weeks - the first week is always easier as you see results from water loss but now the weight loss will slow down - I'm only aiming for 1 lb per week.1 -
6/11 150.4 Well, lost nada this go round. I gained but that's due to camping trip and beer. Back home and back on track. Here's to round 7.1

SW: 274.8 CW: 262 MGW(mini goal wt 1): 249
UGW: 132
06/02: 267.4
06/03: 266.0
06/04: 267.8 (don't understand but hopefully tomorrow will be better)
06/05: 266.2
06/06: 266.4 (I was a bit snackish yesterday due to sleep deprivation. Back on track today.)
06/07: 267.4 (huh?) I ate well below my cals and drank a lot of water. Dunno.
06/08: 264.8 (so i didn't eat that much yesterday bc I was so tired from working out and it shows today)
06/09: 265.2 (had a lot of sodium filled foods yesterday. Will be lots of water today)
06/10: 264.0
06/11: 262.2
So that's 5.2lbs in 10 days! Wow. This really works. Can't wait til the next round. This has really taught me alot about my food habits and what to do to clean it up.4 -
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.
06/07 - 162.6lbs - lots of trips to the bathroom again yesterday so I guess I'm still shedding water weight...I'm cool with that. Going to pick up my kettlebells for the first time in a couple of weeks today so I may be sore tomorrow.
06/08 - 162.4 - budging down in the right direction.
06/09 161.4 - WOOT WOOT! Back down to pre-vacay weight. That didn't take long at all!
06/10 - 160.4 -I can almost taste the 150's!! Amazed at how quickly I bounced back from vacation. I guess the routine and habits at home help. We were very active with the kids while we were away and I only took the elevator when I was wearing heels LOL...so lots of stairs helped the weight gain be limited to water weight.
06/11 -160.0 - YaY Me!! Looking forward to breaking into a new decade in round 7. Hopefully the visit from TOM I'm expecting at some point next week won't de-rail me too much.
Catch you all on the new thread tomorrow!!2 -
