Day / Weight / Comments
7/12 - 178.7 - Off to a good start, but I can already feel the cravings kicking in and it's 6:30 am.
7/13 - 178.7 - No change, but I stayed within my calorie goal so I am happy with that.
7/14 - 178.6 - Better than nothing. I stayed within my calorie goal again, but I have been lazier than usual the last couple of days. I did some strength training yesterday, but no cardio. It has been crazy humid( yeah, that's my excuse ). I'm going to try to run today.
7/15 - 178.8 - Not really sure how that happened. My apple watch says I walked a total of 16,384 steps yesterday, including a 3-mile run. I stayed in my calorie limit every day this week, eating mostly clean and healthy choices. It is a little discouraging because I'm working so hard not to cheat. 178 is my body's "happy weight" when I eat a kind of healthy, but still drink alcohol and eat some junk. Ok, I'm done whining. I'll keep working, eating within my calories and upping the calorie burn through exercise.
7/16 - 177.4 - Yay! The scale moved! I was expecting a move but not that much! I went to the gym yesterday morning and ate below my calories. Just keep swimming!
7/17 - 178.7 - Big jump back up, but I was expecting it because we celebrated our anniversary yesterday. We ate delicious food and drank wine. Worth it. My goal was to not be above my R10 start weight for today's weigh-in, so I'm happy.

Ready for Round 10 (round 3 for me). Thank you for setting this up, Cyranda!
Weight bounces around so I need a way to see the trends on successive 10-day challenges, so am choosing to look at the mid-point between the high and low of the challenge.
Round 8/1: HW 274 LW 269.8 MidW = 271.9
Round 9/2: HW 269.4 LW 266.8 MidW=268.1
I sense two major challenges for this 10-day period. One is maintaining discipline over logging and calories. Cheating the diary just prolongs the process! The other is changing my cooking habits so I am making not just lower calorie supper but less of it. I am still cooking as if I am eating for two.
7/12 266.6 -- This is the lowest weight by .2 pounds. Let's see what I can do to have this be the highest for these 10 days!
7/13 267.6 -- Ah, the days I wake up thirsty because I didn't drink as much as I ought are the days the scale gives me a swat upside the head saying, "You thought you'd be down today because you stayed within your calories! Well, I'll show you!"
7/14 267.6 -- I think the scale likes that number. Calories just within limits so downward path will resume.
7/15 268.0 -- A couple of sodium bombs yesterday. Who knew an English muffin had over 500 grams of sodium? And then for supper a yummy stuffed portobello. The stuffing? Feta. No wonder my eyes are puffy. Gotta drink more today -- throw in an extra glass of still water.
7/16 268.4 -- Starting out 471 calories in the red today because I went 471 calories over yesterday -- ON LATE NIGHT SNACKING!! I also staid up late. This is a well-established old habit that needs breaking! It's the first time I've fallen back into it for awhile. STOP mistaking sleepiness for hunger!! Especially tonight because that 471 calories is taken from today's allotment!
7/17 269 -- Still up. I managed to cancel out about 1/2 of the overage calories yesterday and should get the rest of them today. Sodium consumption has been a bit up lately but I really am staying disciplined about keeping my eating in check and recording everything in the diary.

End of Round 9: 133
Goal for Round 10: 132
Day / Weight / Comments
7/12: 133
Well at least I didn't go up. I had my niece stay over last night and she is used to eating super unhealthy. So yesterday and today has been one of those days where we've been eating healthy for her but unhealthy for us. Just relieved that we have been really active. Because 11 year olds. I love her but I will be glad to not be awakened at 6 on my day off by someone staring at me and asking for food.
7/13: 132.2
I walked over 10,000 steps with my niece yesterday doing various chores and running errands. I guess that plus Aqua Zumba and a short walk with the dog balanced out the slight calorie overage. Let's just keep this off for the next 8 days so I can make my goal!!
7/14: 133
7/15: 133
No kids in the house. Less eating on the go. Less stress. Looking forward to a good workout and a good date night.
7/16: 132.6
Went out last night and watched A Midsummer Night's Dream plus ate super unhealthy. Honestly I'm surprised I lost weight. I think it might just be water because I drank a lot of it yesterday. I also did some HIIT this morning so I feel like I'm getting back on track with exercise now that everything in the house is settling down.
7/17: 134.2
Must be the totally not worth it LNS from last night. Soggy leftover burrito. Blegh.

Your Round 10/ My Round 4
Round 7 [R1]: -5.8lbs
Round 8 [R2]: +.6oz
Round 9:N/A No scale
Round 10 GW: 261 264
7/12 The verdict in is. . .267.4. Basically every effort I put into it has gone to poop. Now that I know where I am starting from, the goal is to get to 261 I was in a state of depression and became lazy as well, no one's fault but mine! I still have two pounds to splurge before I am back in the same spot I started off, so positive thoughts
7/13 266.2 Slowlyyy but surely.
7/14 264.4 Ate under calories with no workout! My favorite food in the world is mozzarella, and I ate a whole ball by myself...lets just say it left as fast as it came! Super excited to be ordering shoes to work out! Whoopeeee! Not afraid of the weekend, I am determined to lose the rest of this water weight and finally begin my life change!
7/15 266.4
7/16 254.4
7/17 268.2. . .I can feel myself losing hope. Chinese buffet, pizza slathered in BBQ sauce, no logging or exercise at all. I slipped into a mini depression; this has to be the worst round for me ever. The only thing that is going to stop me from walking outside is rain, and I will be carrying an umbrella so it will have to rain pretty dang hard for me to not go out and walk. Booo, this sucks. Hopefully I will make it to 264 by the end of this round. I know exactly what I am doing wrong, but my body and my mind can't seem to agree on anything these days.

Goal weight 132
Ultimate goal 130
7/12 - 132.8 I am thrilled! I was very conscious about how much I ate more than what I ate while I was away. Walked a heap checking things out. And worked out 3 out of 4 days I was away. I hope this is going to stick! I was in that direction before I went out to Happy Hour on 7/7 and weighed in on 7/8. Keep on keeping on
7/13 - 132.4 definitely moving in the right direction. Now comes a new challenge. I had a minor procedure today and no exercise for 10-14 days. If I can maintain throughout this challenge, I will be quite happy.
7/14 - 132.4 staying steady. No exercise for awhile. Mindful eating. Eating is 75% of the battle (so the research shows). I will keep logging. Happy Friday everyone.
7/15 - 133 I hate not being able to exercise! Maybe another 8 days. Continue to be mindful about eating
7/16 - 132.4 steady
7/17 - 132.4 This is not easy without exercise. Hopefully, a week from today i can start back!

I'm back for another 10 days of checking in and understanding how my food and activity choices affect my fitness progress.
SW in March - 182.4lbs
GW - 150lbs - will reassess when I get there
7/11 - 156.6lbs -coming in from round 9
7/12 - 156.4lbs - hoping to get to 155 by the end of the round
7/13 - 157.0 lbs - I was up early for a client this morning so my "elimination schedule" was off...hopefully I'll see this gone tomorrow morning as yesterday was a great day for eating and activity
7/14 - 156.0lbs - that's better!
7/15 - 156.2lbs - on my mom's scale
7/16 - 157lbs - on my mom's scale - It was my son's 10th birthday yesterday...we went treetop trekking and ziplining, I'm pretty impressed with the fact that I'm actually fit enough to participate and not just watch from the sidelines...it was SO much fun!! Had to have some of the homemade lasagna and birthday cake...so my calories were over. This is why I've been working at getting in shape, so I can enjoy days like this...the fun active part and the food part!!
7/17 158.4lbs - bleh! Finally got a night out with Hubby to celebrate our anniversary from last week. So much good rich food, but I'm paying for it today, belly is not sure what to do with it. Lots of water and eating light today.

Original start weight 155
Current weight 138.6
Goal weight for for R10 136.6
Ultimate goal weight 128
7/12 138.8 Boo, even a little gain is annoying. I didn’t get much exercise in yesterday, perhaps that’s the culprit. Under on calories, lots of protein yesterday!
7/13 138.0 Heck yeah!! I was so happy to see that, I was due for a loss.. I’ve had a good week with small gains each day, I knew the loss was coming eventually! Had a good day eating yesterday and got 2 nice walks in. On a side note, I’ve officially been weighing myself daily for a month now and am down 7.8lb! 10lb more to go til my ultimate goal!
7/14 137.4 I feel like it’s too good to be true! Ate decently yesterday (even had a chocolate chip cookie and vodka tonic!) got in a really good walk last night after dinner! Hoping I can keep things under control this weekend.
7/15 136.8 Wow! I can't believe how I'm losing this round, I've gotta keep it up! I had a great week staying under my calories and exercising. Only .2 from my goal for this round!
7/16 no weigh in
7/17 138.0 Ugh. I guess it was too good to be true. Pool party + fair food + TOM + not enough water = a sad Monday morning. I know it’s just water and grossness, so it’ll dissipate this week.

End of Round 9: 166.0
Goal for Round 10: 164.0
7/12: 165.4 - a nice drop. I just want to stay under 166.
7/13: 164.4 - I've been drinking plenty of water and getting a good night's rest.
7/14: 165.0 - was expecting this uptick. Had a slight cosmetic procedure yesterday so I expect I'm a little swollen and no exercise for me until Monday.
7/15: 163.6 - looks like I dropped some water weight. we'll see if it sticks.
7/16: 164.6 - totally expected. Way too much sodium yesterday and way over my calories. Gotta tighten up these next few days to make up for it.
7/17: 165.6 - way over my calories and sodium again yesterday. Spent the weekend with my SO and I find it hard to stick to my calories around him unless I prepare all our meals (which I didn't). Going to try to get back to 163.6 to end the 10 days at my lowest weight so far.

Hope everyone's day is going better than mine..
Accomplishing baby steps is a great way to have small wins and stay positive! Having Chinese or pizza? Just eat a little less than last time. For instance 2 slices instead of a normal 3 is a win. And then next time make another baby step like skipping the rice or having a mini salad and one slice.6
