    This is my 3rd block of 10 days. A little public accountability is not a bad thing at all. That, plus seeing how others are doing, is motivating for me. 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 did better in the second 10 days.

    Day Weight Comments
    06/12 286 lbs at the weigh-in for this 10 day challenge. Up 1 lb from the end of the last challenge. :(
    06/13 ??? lbs. On the road for business unexpectedly.
    06/14 ??? lbs. Hopefully tomorrow when I am back to my scale I won't have damage to my weight to undo.

    06/14: 140.5. Up a bit/Not too worried.. I know I hit my calorie goal yesterday and I got some exercise... will see what tomorrow brings. Loving how this challenge is getting me re-focused!!

    Initial 6/11/17 /final goal weight: 156.4 lbs | 98 lbs (?)--not really sure (sm. boned & petite)
    Start/goal weight for this round: 156.4 lbs | 155.4 lbs

    4'11", female, 55 years old

    06/12 156.4 Felt lucky to get that! I finished my last food pretty late...
    06/13 158.0 Figured I had gained after stressful day, yesterday & then out of control eating. I'll do better before
    this round is done. :smile:
    06/14 157.4 Stuck with my meal plans, yesterday.

    Great idea. I am pretty bad at sticking with things, so having a go especially as I weighed myself today...must be a sign! First timer joining with R7:

    Day Weight Comments

    06/12 - 193.4lbs 30mins on elliptical
    06/13 - 192.4lbs another 30mins on elliptical!!
    06/14 - 192.2lbs wow feeling inspired and did another 30mins on the elliptical today!! this is very strange and matches the number of times I had exercised in the last 3 weeks, but it could be guilt. Had a tasty strawberry tart yesterday and some wine, but was well behaved enough to log it on MFP.
    06/15 - 191.2lbs officially lost 2.2lbs since 12th June. Very pleased. Busy day ahead, so focussing on sticking to the calorie plan.

    06/12: 135.6

    HOLY COW! I was so excited to log in and write this morning! Successes--I've been putting in at a calorie deficite pretty much every single day and when I'm not formally exercising I'm at least staying active. Failures--well I bought a bunch of pastries from my favorite French shop this weekend and chowed down so I had to work out hardcore just to burn them off.

    Hoping this pound stays off and it's not a fluke! *fingers crossed*

    06/13: 134.8

    I think this is one of those random dips in weight after coming off of a plateau for what seemed like forever. Also I've cut out a lot of dairy from my diet as it was a major source of excess calories.

    06/14: 136.2

    I'm constipated today. Enough said. :-(

    06/15: 136

    Didn't really exercise yesterday but I came in under calorie count. I'd like to think this is a sign that I'm headed back in the healthier direction. We will see.

    Starting weight 6/11 - 134.5
    Goal for 10 days - 132.5

    06/12 - 136.1
    I'm a little disappointed in myself. I maintained my weight Friday and Saturday (weekends are usually hard for me to eat within calories). Then last night was just a free for all. I went 1100 calories over for the day and it shows on the scale this morning. I've never weighed myself on a Monday. Back at it today though. Workout planned at 8:00!!

    06/13 - 136.4
    Well that went the wrong way ... had a good day though. Good workout and avoided temptation of food and beer at an impromptu get together with neighbors.

    06/14 - 135.3
    Good food day yesterday, just under 1200 calories. No time for my workout. Getting wo in first thing this morning!

    06/15 - 134.9
    Good day for exercise, bad day for food. I was around 700 calories over my 1200 net goal. To be exact, I was 3 full calorie beers, 1 m&m cookie and 1 serving of potato chips over :neutral: I'm hoping it doesn't catch up to me tomorrow because I have to weigh in for my biggest loser group.

    My highest weight was 300 in January 2014. I started my Fitness Pal and got down to 258 in February 2015. In June 2015, my mom moved in for 24 hour care. My whole mind set was changed, no longer did I need to lose weight, I needed to take care of my mom. Needless to say my weight climbed back up. I have been bouncing back and forth between 275 and 285. In March of this year, at doctor's, I was at 282. She recommended myfitnesspal. I am loving it. Slow going, but the weight is coming off in-spite the trials we are going through now. Husband being diagnosed with colon cancer, and me with type 2 diabetes. Doctor said lose another 10-20 lbs and I'll be in a safer zone. Gives me a whole new motivation.

    Start weight: 279
    Current weight: 273.2
    Current Goal weight: 270
    Long term goal: 135

    Round 4 278.0
    Round 5 275.6
    Round 6 273.2

    6/12 273.4
    6/13 272.0
    6/14 271.6

    6/15 271.6 hmmm, must have been sampling from cake grand-kids(ages 7 & 5) made for Father's Day picnic. Had to make sure it was good before serving it to others. I did choose to use the 2-bite rule.

    I like the idea of putting in numbers from other rounds because it shows how far people have come. It's 'only' 10 days but they add up when you keep committing. Sometimes it seems like a daunting task when challenges last for months. So here goes:
    R2 SW 221
    R3 SW 217.4
    R4 SW 215
    R5 SW 212
    R6 Missed- Was away with no scale
    R7 SW 208.4 (June 11)

    06/12 - 207.8
    06/13 - 207.4
    06/14 - 207.6 Getting close to a mini goal, as usual I'm going to have to buckle down and fight for it :)

    6/11 I'm in again.
    Woke up at 150.4 today thanks to too many carbs and beers while camping.
    Let's see what round 7 brings. Nothing but the best.

    06/12 149.4 OK, some water weight gone. Under on carbs and cals. 30 on elliptical. Still 1.4# over from when I started round 6. Gain so easy, lose so slow, that's the story of my yoyo. LOL My goal for this round is to get in the 147's.

    06/13 148.8 Yahooooo. 35 Elliptical (interval), trained, made cabbage soup to get me back on track.

    06/14 147.5 Yes!!! Did 30 on elliptical, an hour of water aerobics, ate clean. 1/2 more pound off and I'm halfway to my goal weight of 132. I am soooo stoked. It's been slow, with ups and downs, but it's happening.

    06/15 148.4 Ah, the dreaded fluctuation. Over on carbs, had some corn and ribs for dinner. I didn't over do it though so yeah for that. Did Elliptical for 50 min. Don't think I had enough water yesterday.Today I go to gym. Here's to a day of virtue.

    Mysticalmudd, You can edit the one you made last time. You go to your last post and hit 'quote', then you will see your post in the box in editable text. Remove the parenthesis at the beginning and end of your post and everything in it (first one will say 'quote="Mysticalmudd;c-39803273" and the second will say /quote' and put your new weight in and post reply. Make sure you remove the square brackets and the contents.

    Round 7
    6/11 SW = 139.2


    06/12 - 138.2 A good day. Started it with a 3 mile walk. Logged my food and stayed do on track. Worked hard and feel like I put in a productive day in all areas.
    06/13 - 138.0
    06/14 - 138.8 Up a little but I was really hungry the day before and ate extra. I was still within my calories more or less but I really felt the urge to eat so listened to my body. I feel like I have gotten better at distinguishing between real hunger and craving or wanting to eat just for the sake of eating.

    06/12 - 171
    06/13 - 172.4 - grrrr that's annoying. I came in under calories and spent 30 min on the elliptical yesterday.
    06/14 - 172 - better than yesterday but still discouraging. Again came in slightly under calories but no time for exercise yesterday. Determined to keep it up and see better results tomorrow.

    Round 1 for me!
    6/12: 269 Couldn't bare to put 270lbs but I probably weighted more than that! Feeling pretty bad I let myself get to this point! I have never walked this much in one day in months! Feels great! NSV worthy!
    6/13: 267.8 Surprised I lost that much weight, I might have overate on my calories a little! Teeehee! :smile:
    6/14: 266.8 I had a little more snack than I should have had, but I must have been able to burn enough calories as to where it did not matter! Went for a walk this morning in heels, definitely going to have blisters on my ankles. Gonna go for another walk, as well. Nothing is stopping me anymore! >:)
    6/15: 267.8 Welp! I ate something my boss brought back for me, and my heels were too busted to get a good walk in. :| I am extremely ready to get a 30 minute walk in after work! Looking at my weight loss so far, the gain could have been worse!
