I'm in again! Hi, all. My goal, as always, is to lose 2# in 10 days. Good luck and clean eating everyone!
Day Weight Comments
6/22 146.6 This is some kind of fluke as I'm down a pound from yesterday. I slept late and woke up really dry if you know what I mean. But by this I'm down 3.4 from the start of last round. My goal was 2#. Now, on to releasing the next 2.
6/23 149.6 Seriously? up over 3#! Had lunch out yesterday: 1/2 a salad and 1/2 a sandwich. Maybe water weight somewhere. Gonna drink my share of lemon water today.
6/24 147.8 Went to gym yesterday and did my routine. Delightfully sore. Today: walking track. I'm trying a new approach and entering meals, snacks, etc, for the entire day before I eat anything. If I need to change something, ok, but this gives me a plan for the day and when I get peckish I go for one of the snacks I planned on. Gives me more control over sticking to the macros.
6/25 147.6 A .2 loss seemed so small until I realized it equals a loss of 1.4 a week. I'll take it. Did the elliptical yesterday and stuck below macros on everything. Off to plan today's menu. Happy losing everyone.
6/26 147.2 Put in an hour on elliptical yesterday. Went at slower pace as I read that 60-70% of MHR is the zone where you lose weight. Today: gym. Going to go grunt. Wishing us all success.

It's going to be close! I hope I can make it into the 150's by the end of the 10 days but I've been doing so great this far i don't mind if it takes me an extra week. I had a 2300 calorie Saturday and an 1850 Sunday because I walked so much I'm still in a great deficit.3 -
Starting weight 148
Starting weight end of Round 7 Challenge 134.4
Goal weight 132
Ultimate goal 130
6/22 - 134.8 not really sure why, but hopefully tomorrow it will be below my starting weight of 134.4 from the end of Round 7. Got in my 5 mile run this morning as the heat was rising in So. Fl.
6/23 - 133.8 wish I didn't have 1 pound swings. I want to maintain this weight throughout this challenge and end a little lighter. My goal is 1-1.5 pounds per 10 day challenge. Working hard and being mindful. Happy Friday everyone!
6/24 - 134.2 Continue to be mindful. Going to a nutrition lecture this morning. Hoping to gain some insight.
6/25 - 136.2 Does not surprise me. I had a very good full meal at Bonefish Grill last night. Back in the saddle this morning. Finished my 5 mile run and back to mindful eating. We all need a cheat meal every now and then. Happy Sunday all!
6/26 - 133.8 Makes me do a Happy Dance on Monday. The more I come back to that number, the more I know it will stick. Off to the 9:45 class at the gym. And mindful eating

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.
6/25 156.8 I stayed under in calories, yesterday, and am happy with being the same weight. I just don't want to go up (at this point).
6/26 156.8 I either stayed right at 1200 calories or was below, yesterday. I mean, I stuck with my meal plan (which was less than 1200 calories), but had a few bites of my husband's baked potato that had chili on it..... I'm still happy with this weight, if I can at least keep it until the end of this 10 days. (I will have surpassed my goal for this 10 day's challenge).

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.
6/25: 134.6
Went to a soccer match downtown. Had to get there pretty early to avoid traffic so we walked about a mile away from the stadium for a bite to eat and some ice cream. I even got a Coke (eek!). Of course I came in over cal count but I usually splurge at matches. I will keep being careful for the next few days. Surprised I didn't gain any weight...
6/26: 134.4
Back down! Again this is the lowest I've weighed since I've started this whole thing. I'm really cool with my weight now, but I started out saying I wanted to get to 130, so I will get there.

SW: 283
6/21/17 weight: 270.4 lbs.
6/22 SW 270.4 -- Goal for 10 days: be in the 260s.
6/23 274 --yes the scale is still giving somewhat random numbers but most of that +4 (!) pounds is Chinese Take Out and the extra bottle of water I drank with it. Gonna buy a new scale today so who knows what tomorrow will bring.
6/24 271.0 -- new scale and still getting rid of the water weight from that Chinese Take Out. Going to try starting a little exercise today.
6/25 272.8 -- THEM THAT PLAYS PAYS! Okay so how about unsalted tortilla chips upon which I sprinkled salt ... and then that dill harvarti binge late at night? So at least I recorded the binge with breakfast today and will stay within calorie limits even including that extra cheese! Tonight, I go to bed rather than munch late at night!
6/26 270.8 -- almost back where I started. Phew. Behave right, Heidi, and there's still hope of reaching the 260s in this challenge!

Happy Monday, Folks!!
Even though this is a challenge, my mini NSV was that I stuck to my stuff and logged in my weight, even when I felt like giving up. Thanks to everyone who gave me a pep comment!
We all have these crappy times, it's how we respond to them that make us stronger people. Good luck.. you are doing this for you, don't forget that. When it's all said and done that wee twinge of revenge doesn't hurt things either.4 -

GW for 7/1 138
Day Weight Comments
6/22 140.8 I was pleased with this – officially 5lbs down since I started weighing myself daily on 6/12. I took 2 half-hour walks yesterday and was below my calorie count for the day
6/23 140.2 Did a 45 minute bootcamp class last night that kicked my *kitten*! Came in well under my calories for the day, happy to see a loss
6/24 140.2 No change in the scale, I didn’t get in any exercise yesterday so that may explain it
6/25 139.4 Reached my first mini goal, to be at my pre-pregnancy weight! Had a good day yesterday – resisted pizza and brownies at a family get together
6/26 140 A little surprised I’m up today, I had a good day yesterday... less water intake, maybe that affected it. Oh well, it’s a new week!

SW 140
GW for this challenge 130 - I did 2 rounds of this, got below 130 then missed a round. I'm back up to 133.
6/22. 133.4 - ate well, below calories.
6/23. 133.2 - a tiny drop. Did a HIIT workout this morning and my goal is to get in a run tonight.
6/24 -133.2 - did long circuit training workout last night and was within calorie goal. Feeling good, though no drop.
6/25 -134.2 - aftermath of sushi yesterday, waterweight from salt retention
6/26 -135.0 - this is a trend in the wrong direction. I deserve it though after the sushi, a bit of chocolate yesterday and no workouts all weekend. Really regretting my decisions this weekend and feeling heavy and gross.

GAME ON!
I need a support system in my life. It's hard to exercise and change the way you eat when you're the only one in a family of 5 that wants to make changes. That makes it even more difficult to stay accountable, and I need that. I hadn't felt right in about 6 months. I was so fatigued and being a teacher, a Mom of 3, and taking care of my niece and nephew so their parents can work, I need all the energy that I can get. Yet, I was falling asleep as early as 6:30, and I felt like I didn't sleep at all when the alarm went off at 6. I started noticing that my left arm started to tingle and become numb. Then, it spread down my left side and all the way down to my toes. My grip was weaker, and I was struggling to open jars. I finally went to the doctor, and I found out I have a B12 deficiency due to taking medication prescribed from my specialist for GERD. I also discovered that my LDL (bad cholesterol) was better than it has been, but it was still bad, and my HDL (good cholesterol) was too low. It was recommended I lose 7 -10% of my body weight, take 1000 B12 supplement, and exercise 30 minutes a day for a total of 150 minutes a week. So, here I am...trying to improve my health. It isn't an easy thing to do, so I wanted to be a part of something that would keep me motivated and support me along the way. I want to stay on the wagon. I need to. When I started my weight loss journey, I was 202 lbs. This is my first round doing the 10 day challenge. With that being said...
06/22: 195
06/23: 193.5
06/24: 192.5
06/25: 191.5 I AM THRILLED! I JUST HIT MY 10 LB. MARK.
06/26: 193.5 I AM BUMMED! Sometimes, I think that weighing myself every day is bad for my mental health because when I see the numbers on the scale go up, I get incredibly upset. However, it's almost like this compulsive thing that has me going back down to the scale every single morning to see if anything has changed at all. Today, is one of the days that I wish that I never would have looked. I stayed under my calorie intake yesterday, but I must be truthful, I had a slice of my own birthday cake. It's almost 500 calories alone for this cake! Also, since I exercised 6 days straight, I gave my body an active resting day. Now, I feel so guilty. I pushed myself to do an hour of cardio and upper body strength this morning, and I feel sick, sick, sick to my stomach. It's awful!6 -
Round 7: 172.3
First goal: 170

6/25: 214.8 -- stayed under my calories yesterday, a minor miracle.
6/26: 214.8 -- Yesterday was a damn mess. I expect the scale will react over the next couple days.

Goal = 133 pounds
6/22 145.0 - Need to do this!!! My clothes don't fit!!!
6/23 144.6 - walked today before it turned to 107 degrees!
6/24 144.4 - walked today before it turned to 105 degrees!
6/25 144.5 - didn't walk today and now it's too late! stinko!
6/26 144.4 - 2.76 mi. walk with dog. The Delta breezes are back in the Sacramento, CA oven, so it was only 67° when I started. A little discouraged about my weight because I have faithfully tracked that I was not consuming over 1200 calories. Think I had too much salt yesterday. I'll be drinking my 8 glasses of water today for sure!
