Just saw this challenge. Hope you don't mind if I join late! I'm recovering from physical issues, so I'll just try to keep my eating as it should be and get 10,000 steps.

Let's see if I can maintain this loss and perhaps get lower!3 -
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
06/21 287 lbs. My weight at the end of the last challenge
06/22 286 lbs. Good to see it going down a lb.
06/23 285 lbs. A pleasant surprise 2 days in a row with another lb.
06/24 284 lbs. Yes! The damage from the Father's Day weekend-long food & booze festival is behind me.

I'm gonna try this, again. I gained weight for my 1st Round which was Round 7.
I still believe that I can do this, though. I am going to see what I can do this Round 8 -- my 2nd Round.
I must be honest... I expect it to be higher on the first day of Round 8 (my 2nd round). But, after that... I'm hoping to be down by the end of the 10 days.
Final Goal weight: maybe 98 lbs -- not really sure (sm. boned & petite)
4'11", female, 55 years old
So, my 1st Round (R7) Start Weight: 156.4 lbs. End Weight 159.6 lbs.
2nd Round (R8): Begin Weight: 160.2 2nd Round (R8) Goal Weight: 159.2
6/22 160.2
6/23 158.2 Wow, it really helps to follow my meal plan... duh. I've already surpassed my goal for this round, but let's see if I can stick it or get down below it.
6/24 156.8 I was pleasantly surprised as I did have a package of M & M peanuts & a sm. pkg of honey roasted peanuts. I hope that I can stick at this or get lower.

My round 2!! Hey y'all!
SW: 269
GW for R7/R2: 256
Round 7/ My Round 1 : 263.2 [-5.8lbs]
6/22 264.? I don't remember the oz, but alas! The scale has moved! Bought a coffee today and spoiled myself. **Barely counted calories today**
6/23 261.2 Was expecting it to be higher! Heart was crushed yesterday over a person (surprised I didn't even binge eat!), but when I remembered the goals, my goal for me strictly and no one else, my heart was like, "Not today, private!!
" Needed to vent. 
It's the weekend, yall. Oh lort!
6/24 262.2 . . .Y'all. Today is a terrible day. Went to Golden Coral, and then had 2 and a half egg rolls. All of that dedication is waste now. I feel defeated and ashamed I let my old habits overtake me.
I did not want to even post today, but it has to be done.

Well, I ate two Little Caesar's Cheese Pizza's today. I felt so guilty that I exercised so much that I burnt off all the calories and then some. We can treat ourselves sometimes can't we?2 -

You didn't do anything to get upset about!
You've got to remember 2 things:
One day is not going to make or break you. You can't lose everything in one day, and you can't gain it all back in one day either.
You're learning how to live life a new way. You can't restrict everything. You have to be able to live. You just how to learn how to make adjustments to make up for splurges or just not worry about them if they don't come up that often.
What matters is how you react today. Don't think "all my work is for nothing" and throw in the towel. And don't try to restrict to "make up for it." Just have a normal day. A new normal day of making choices that you feel good about yourself.
I'm following a keto diet. That means no "white carbs" and keep them under 20 g a day. Well guess what - I went to a Greek festival this week. Why? Because I would have kicked myself if I didn't go. And there was no way I was going to turn down baklava homemade by Greek grandmas. (Take it from me, it was devine.) I actually ate less than I expected (I went with someone who was very willing to help my diet along by 'sharing' with me. lol) It was completely utterly against a keto mindset. But you know what? Who cares! I had some baklava, I didn't binge, I didn't let it get me down, and I didn't deprive myself. I found the balance between being in control and living life. That's what we're all trying to learn how to do.
So you've had some excellent practice here. There's all kinds of things you can learn from it, but just seeing it as something to learn from rather than something to scold yourself over might be a great place to start.
