This is my 4th 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 approximately 10 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. I derailed a bit in the third. The Father's Day weekend-long party didn't help. I am resolved to do better this time.

Day Weight Comments

My net loss over 3 previous consecutive 10 day challenges: 2 lbs.
Loss so far this challenge: 2 lbs.

Looking to lose a few more pounds before my 21st birthday on July 29 and wedding September 25th. This is great accountability!

Round 8: Round 1 for me.
SW: 227. Final goal weight: 150
6/21/17 weight: 164.5 lbs
Round 8 GW: 163 lbs 161 lbs

6/22: 162 lbs. I was gob-smacked when I got on the scales this morning. I have been stuck around 164 for quite a few weeks, and honestly thought that 163 lbs was the best I could expect in 10 days. Is it too premature to revise that GW?
6/23: 163 lbs. I was doing so well until I had a bit of chocolate after dinner, and finished the bar. At least that temptation is gone now!
6/24: 164.5 lbs. Part of normal daily fluctuation. I'm up and down all the time, even when I don't vary diet and routine. Go figure!

What's a realistic 10 day weight lost goal? Is it ok if I don't set one?

6/23- 176.2 lbs
6/24- 174.6 lbs I think almost 2lbs in a day is a fluke incident.

Starting at 215
Seems like a great mini gial

End of R7: 135.4
SW:135.2

6/22: 135.2
I've been fluctuating in the 135 range for the past week and a half. Yesterday I did 50 mins of Aqua Zumba but then I screwed that up by eating out after. New plan is to eat about an hour before class and have some fruit or nuts for a snack after.
6/23: 134.4
YAY!!!! Stayed within cal count yesterday, too! Unfortunately...I also fell up (yes, I did say UP) the stairs and I did something to my foot and one of my wrists. I don't know what I'm going to do. I have to teach sitting down, so there's no way I can work out. Last round it was a hernia, now this. I'm seriously the most accident prone person I know.
6/24: 134.6
Came in about 100 calories under count last night which is as low as I should be going when I don't work out (I'm supposed to eat a little over 1300 per day, and I usually work out enough in the pool to be able to eat at least 1500-1700. On a side note: my foot really friggin' hurts.

GW for this round - 168
Final GW - 140

Coming in from Round 7 at 170 lbs

6/22 - 169.6 - did really well yesterday, 40 min on elliptical and food intake was on point. Expected to see a bigger loss, but I'll take it!

6/23 - 169.6 - No exercise today and pretty sedentary due to work but came in under calories.

6/24 - 168.8 - Stayed close to calories despite a friend's wedding. No "exercise" but ran my *kitten* off getting every thing ready so all in all, I'll call that a win.

Ended round 7 at 134.5

I would like to lose 1.5 for round 8!

6/22 - 133.3

6/23 - 132.1
In going to try not to get too excited about my overnight -1.2 pounds. I had three beers after dinner and I suspect that's making me a little dehydrated. It's nice to see a number even closer to goal though!! 128 is where I'd like to be. It just gives me some wiggle room to maintain between 128-130. Of course, its the weekend now and those are always tough ...

6/24 - 132.3
Did well yesterday. Stayed within calories. Looking back at the last several weekends I average 2000 calories Saturday and Sunday. My goal for this weekend is no more than 1500 each day. I do not have workouts planned so this will be an extra 600 calories over the weekend. Fingers crossed for the will power!!!
