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.
7/18: 132.2
Yep. It was the burrito. Back down again. So happy, too. 2.2 lbs away from my goal weight! Did Aqua Zumba last night and afterwards I caught my hand in a bag of salt and vinegar chips. After about 5, I looked at the back of the bag, saw the nutrition info, and decided it wasn't worth it. Yay me! Normally I would be like "Oh well. I earned it." Hoping to remember that if you want to see results you can't just gobble them up!

7/17: 177-Bummer Dude! I was on a roll! Quilting retreat starts today; copious amounts of crap to eat..
Just remember to keep carrying around fabric in one hand and a rotary cutter in the other. Sew an occasional square inside out so you can sit with the seam ripper while others are eating. Work with a lot of plain fabrics that would definitely show food spots so you daren't nibble. (My sister's a quilter -- have fun!)6 -

7/12 - 141.0 I think I figured out my yoyo weight by reducing carbs as much as possible. However was up for Round 9 while on vacation and a couple parties. My goal this 10 days is to drop 1 lb and end at 140.8
7/13 - 140.8 I think this is just water loss. For some reason I've had a few nights of night sweats. Not sure what's wrong...maybe my low-carb diet?
7/14 - 139.8 Hoping to stay under 140 by the end of this 10 days.
7/15 - 140.2 Too much snacking & drinks last night
7/16 - 140.0
7/17 - 139.2 Stayed under calories & carbs

End of R9: 170.2
7/12 - 169.3 Got back on track and had a healthy day!!
7/13 - 166.7. Late weigh in. Before dinner. Let's see what tomorrow brings!!
7/14 - 165.9 ... I've rid some of those weekend endulgent high sodium/ water weight pounds. I really am trying to maintain.
7/15 - 165.1 ... So I've badly burned the roof of my mouth with a hot hot cup of tea. It's so bad I can hardly swallow. So I haven't been eating much. But have enjoyed some ice cream!!!
7/16 - 165.8. Too much ice cream!
7/17 - 165.4 Had a lovely hike with SO yesterday. The roof of my mouth is still very sore, hoping that in the next couple of days I can eat a decent meal! Enjoying the ice cream and yogurt though.
7/18 - 165 Fairly stable. Looks like a big jump at the start but I was up a little previous weeks. Hope to hit my steps today and am looking for a healthy BBQ grilled dinner.... Maybe grilled shrimp and veggies!!

R8 SW: 229.4
R9 SW: 225.8
R10 SW: 218.2
R10 GW: 215.2
7/12 - 218.2 lbs. Big drop last round. Should probably assess my intake if this doesn't slow down (although the drop is great...just fast).
7/13 - 217.2 lbs. NSV fit into my old running jacket that I haven't been able to fit in for a long time. It's tight but just 2 months ago I couldn't even zip it up so great moment.
7/14 - 218.4 lbs....Um what? Lovely water weight surprise (I guess). Ate instant potatoes again yesterday and had a root beer float just before bed. So probably the culprit?
7/15 -no scale. At bf and his scale has given me 5 different values ranging over 5 lbs. think it's safe to just skip weigh in today.
7/16 - 218.0 lbs. Well I'll take it. Ended up eating slightly over maintenance yesterday. Was inventory night at Costco (sooooo much counting and moving flatbeds) so they brought in pizza, cookies, candy, and pop for all of us. I sampled it all lol.
7/17 - 216.8 lbs. downward ho!
7/18 - 216 lbs. Almost at my goal for this round but heading to the Taste of Edmonton (copious amounts of sample size food from dozens of restaurants around town in one small little area= food coma) on the 20th so need to concentrate pretty hard to keep this number steady.

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.
7/18: 163.8 - 12 glasses of water and I cut back a little yesterday to try to make up for my overage this past weekend.

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!
7/18 - 132 I have not seen that number in many, many years. Amazing!

@AngelaOStrong there are definitely days I don't feel like posting my weight here either, but the support is great amongst this little group and I need the accountability. Let's finish this round out strong!
@cyranda63 you are so close to onederland!
Everyone is doing so well! Y'all seriously motivate me to work harder.7 -
HeidiCooksSupper wrote: »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.
7/18 268.8 -- At least this is ever so slightly in the right direction. The sodium numbers have been up, what with a couple meals of feta, olives, etc. in the last several days. And I've managed to completely wipe out the extra calories of a couple nights ago but it was definitely a struggle not to late-night-snack. "Ready for my WHOOSH, Mr. Demille."

7/12: 196.2 kinda knew it would go up a little. I ate late and fell asleep within a half hour of my last bite of food. Not my usual practice and not something I want to make a habit. Still happy to be off the 97 lol
7/13: 197.8 dang it dang it dang it. Had a little bbq last night, but didn't eat only a little lol. Add on the fact that my morning routine was messed up and today wasn't great, but I hit up the vegetables hard today and stayed on goal, so hopefully the scale will show it.
7/14: 197.2 that's better. went for a walk and did some zumba, so today was alright.
7/15: 197.0 woot woot! had some bbq today but I got a good walk in and stayed within my calories.
7/16: 197.8
7/17: 197.4 okay that's a bit better. I'm going to be working more so if I stay consistent with my food (no more Popeye's Chicken), then I think I'll be able to get back on track for this round. Also, side note, not only did my weight go up, but I totally broke out after eating that delicious but super greasy chicken. I'll be staying away from now on.
7/18: 196.2 woot woot! Going back down. Did about 4 miles of walking yesterday, and on pace for that amount today as well. Let's finish out these last few days strong!

Day Weight Comments
7/12 132.4 lbs
7/13 132.4 lbs. I've noticed that I will stay at the same weight for a few days, then go down more than a lb, then go up higher than where I was stuck and then back down a bit under where I was stuck and stay there a few days and start all over again. So I'm slowly losing weight in kind of a downward yo-yo pattern which seems frustrating some days until I look at the big picture.

7/18 - 221.9 - Feeling like I have stuffed my face today and I still have 750 calories remaining for dinner. Not sure why but I did do something different today by snacking every 2 hours after a super light lunch at 12:30 so maybe that's why. Cherries at 2:00 and hummus and crackers at 3:30. Dinner will be at 7 when my daughter goes down...then more packing. Move is Monday!

7/12- 161.0
7/13- 160.4 if I reach the 150s and can stay there til the end of the round I'm going to be so excited. Managed to ditch the 180s, 170s, and soon 160s.

7/15- 160.0
7/16- 159.6 hopefully I can maintain til the end of the round
