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."
7/19 267.2 -- There we go. A nice, low sodium day yesterday. Let's see if I at least get back down to where I started out this 10-day period. It really does help to have the averages above for the previous weeks to look at and remind myself that the average this time will be lower. Progress is being made even if the daily fluctuations make it hard to see. Onward!

7/20 266.4 -- Wait a second! Here I was all set to write something bland about keeping sodium in check yesterday and then I looked up top where I have my ranges and for the previous weeks. This is a new low by .4 pounds! Hooray!

Started R6 @ 177.1
First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ... At a slow rate
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!!
7/19 - 165.1 Holding steady!! Hit 13,900 steps walked home from work and had a great dinner!! Walking home from work again today unless its way way too hot.

7/20 - 165.5 Walked home from work again. Tonights goal is to get 15,000 steps in, could be a challenge as I've plans tonight with a friend.

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.
7/19: 164.0 - normal fluctuation. although I do feel a bit 'heavy' today for lack of better words.

7/20: 163.2 - my lowest yet. looking to finish strong!

Was reading the beginning of your post. Thanks so much for the idea! I had been feeling like I was not losing much weight but then I went back to the last challenge to see where I was at. I think from now on I'm going to post my average weights for previous challenges instead!

tishawj · July 2017

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.
7/18 - 159.6lbs - on my mom's scale...hoping this is the issue. I know I over indulged on the weekend a bit but yesterday was a good day and there's no way I ate/drank 3.5 lbs worth of extra calories since my 156 day last week. Sodium, and muscle soreness are holding the water I suspect.
7/19 - 156.6lbs - big drop....partly the scale, partly water woosh. Back to where I was at the end of last round...hopefully the next couple of days will get me below 156 so I show a loss in this one. I really need to get a handle on the weekends, up to the summer I was doing really great at keeping things in check but there have been so many special events I'm losing control. This coming weekend is pretty low key so hoping to stay on target.

7/20 - 156.6lbs - just keep swimming....

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.
7/14 132.4 lbs. holding steady.
7/15 131.8 lbs
7/16 131.8 lbs woohoo!!

@FAR_from_FAT To clarify my asking..Has anyone else seen multiple posts under one name??

*Just being nosey..

Yes, MFP glitches like that sometimes and quotes the entire page instead of just your own post.

Thanks!

txcraftr · July 2017

Are you going to start a brand new 100 days? Since I just found this board and round 10 ends tomorrow I was wondering if you are going to start a new thread or just let people keep going from where THEY started. I would love to do this as 10 days is a good round number to strive for change. Please PM me. Thanks

Here I am focused on the minimal of change where I weighed myself three times today and I was 77.5kg then 77.1kg then 76.9kg all in the space of two hours. So yes im going to do this challenge again and actually focus on what I'm eating and doing more exercise. Bring on round eleven xxx

CW: 161.0
R10 GW: 159.0
UGW: 140-seems to be within reach, starting to get the hang of this eating healthy. Found that dieting is not my thing can't stick to it but tracking seems to work better for me. I can enjoy all the foods I like just in moderation then I don't feel guilty.

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.
7/14- 161.6 the weekend started at the end of TOM
7/15- 160.0
7/16- 159.6 hopefully I can maintain til the end of the round
7/17-159.8 Im still wondering if my scale is wrong and finally decided to be my lil liar that I have wished for lol
7/18- 160.4 still can't believe the numbers lol
7/19- 159.2 Yeah, hopefully I can stay here til the end!!
7/20- 160.4 scale can't make up it's mind. 150-160s hmmm let see.....

7/15 193 awesome day at six flags, ended with a family movie/slumber party night. Avoided the sweets! Woot woot
7/16 194 hot, lazy day but stayed within calories
7/17 191 wahoo! Feeling like the worst mom ever...oh kids, for the love, STOP IT....pretty much sums up my day.
7/18 191 yay! I thought yesterday's 191 was a fluke, but it remains! Great day all around today! I may finally break the 190s and stay below!!
7/19 191 holding steady. Didn't eat so healthy, but stayed in my calories goal...so that's something lol. Built a bed today with my oldest to surprise my youngest, which was so fun!! Good times

7/20 190 woot woot! Such an exhausting day! 5 hot hours at the pool, but the kiddos loved playing with their cousins ❤️. Even had enough calories left ove for a couple evening beers!! Yes!!! A win for today

UGW: 130

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!

7/19: 195.8 alright! Almost back where I started for this week. I doubt I'll be able to make my goal of 193 in the next two days, so I want to make a new goal for myself. I want to maintain my focus over the weekend so that all my hard work doesn't go to waste in the next round.

7/20: 194.8 Had to weigh myself twice. I have no clue why it's coming down so fast but I'll take it. Been walking alot more and eating my bmr or close to it for the last few days. Have a super early start tomorrow so I'm expecting my weight to be back up.
