JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | ROUND 6
Replies

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
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!
06/07 - 134.4 Hmmmm. I was very cognizant about how much I ate and trying to be very calorie conscious. If I can drop 1 pound by the end of this 10 day challenge, I would be good with that
06/08 - 134.8 True proof that weight loss is more about what you eat than exercise. Ran 5 miles yesterday. But had neighbors over for dinner, too much food and drink! Lesson learned (I hope).
06/09 - 136.1 My bad!!! I ate way too much last night and was sooooo full. (I guess I didn't learn my lesson, hopefully today!)
06/10 - 135.7 I feel like I am started my last month over. Do you ever feel like you sabotage yourself? That is how I have felt the last few days. It's like riding a horse, I need to get back in the saddle
6/11 - on the road and no scale . Hoping for the new 10 day challenge and better results!1 -

Thanks so much! I didn't see the "jump in anytime!" part. I will officially begin Round 7.
I found this thread on June 8th. I ended May at 156, but just knew that I was back up in the 160s, again. I had not been sticking with my meal plans and didn't want to weigh in... but after reading your thread, I did.
You all have already helped me, already! You motivated me to get back to it!
6/9 159.0 Ate more calories and did not stick with my meal plan, but not as bad as the path that I had been on before May!
6/10 158.6 Same as above.
6/11 156.4 Stuck with my meal plan!

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*
06/11 285 lbs. No change. I can see how some of the things I ate and drank could have kept me static. (Del Taco for lunch and scotch for my sore throat).
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.
See you in the next 10 day challenge.5 -

I'll take it. I'll be participating in the next round. It's not as low as I'd hoped, but I'm proud that I've gotten back on track despite last week being rough for me.3 -
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."
Sounds like a deal! I'm trying to get out of the 170's but it's hard.2 -
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.
06/07 135.1
06/08 134.3 I thought my 135 from the last few days might not hold, but I guess it is. Super sore from Zumba yesterday. I'm nearing the end of the classes I signed up for...thinking about starting Jillian's kick box fast fix. I've never been able to lose this fast before, but I've been focusing more on exercise recently instead of just food and I think it shows.
06/09 135.6 Don't know what happened today. Ate pretty normally yesterday, weighed in at the same time. I don't feel bloated or anything. Hope it goes back down tmr.
06/01 134.6
06/11 134.8 Went a little crazy yesterday and had to grab some chips and noodles, so a little water weight today.
Weight lost this round: 2.4 lbs3 -
06/02=199.4lb Yep backwards. Well that was this morning, see what tomorrow brings.
06/03=197.2lb This morning. Should help dismantle a delivery van in the sun more often! See what tomorrow brings.
06/04=197.4
06/05=198.2 Shouldn't have eaten that whole pint of ice cream, but tasty.
06/06=198.8 Well...
06/07=198.4 This after unloading a pallet of lumber for a deck build. Too much pizza for dinner.
06/08=201.4 This after a soft pretzel for breakfast, brats, veggies, and potato salad for dinner, and a day of hauling pine tree branches to the compost site.
06/09=199.8 Just about back where I started.
06/10=199.8
06/11=198.8
Total= -.6lb Not great, but that was a rough 10 days. Hopefully the next 10 will be better.2 -

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.
06/06 144.4 Have been under my calorie goal but too much carbs & sodium
06/07 141.8 No late night snacking or drinking
06/08 142.2 Exercised, stayed under calorie & carb limit and met protein goal. This must be normal fluctuations.
06/09 143.4 Wrong direction! Was up til midnight snacking and drinking. Not good.
06/10 143.4
06/11 143.6 No alcohol today and under on calories so hopefully I will see a drop tomorrow1 -
Sorry was a busy weekend... but I still want to post
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.
06/07 - 175.1 2 light walks yesterday
06/08 - 175.6 > Spa day, no push on walks or runs. We will see if the extra sodium was a factor. Hoping for a run tonight.
06/09 - 174.4 < Eating more, still losing YAY!! Ran last night still doing good and excited about the next one!
06/10 -174.7 < Went for a 2 hour power walk along the waterfront so nice
06/11- 174.1 < C25K in the morning tried to go really early and should have as it was getting warm. SO came home after over a month away and we went for a walk and had a healthy dinner. Nice he is home but he spoils me and I have to really concentrate on my eating and exercise as he does all the cooking when he is home!!
Thank you for these 10 days
