7/24 - 177 ::happy dance::, getting closer to my goal for this round! I don't think I ate enough yesterday though. I wasn't hungry by the end of the day so that was good but we will see what happens today. I won't be too upset if it bumps up a little tomorrow if I eat the proper amount of calories

I'll join in. This is my first round. I'm a 47 yo female, 5'6.
Started at 193 pounds in July 2016
Lost to 137 pounds by April 2017.
I'd like to lose some of the almost 10 pounds I have gained back since April (too many vacation meals and drinks!)
Goal weight: 135
Day / Weight / Comments
7/22/ 146.4 / O.k., I gained more than I thought!
7/23 / 145.0 / This time I weighed first thing in the morning. Stuck to under 1200 calories yesterday.
7/24 / 142.6 / Wow! Looks like it must have been water weight from all the salty food and drink over the last 2-3 weeks. I will keep drinking water and stay under 1200 calories. Less than 7 pounds to go.
7/25 / 142.7 / Under 1200 calories yesterday. I want to add exercise, but afraid I will overeat due to increased hunger.
7/26 / 141.6 / Did I really have 5 pounds of water weight?? Now how long to lose the last 5 or so pounds?

Average Weight Round 10: 133.06
Starting Weight: 132.4
Goal Weight: 131
7/22: 133.2
Ate healthy yesterday. Went to a concert with my husband and a group of friends and we walked around downtown. Didn't drink. Gained weight. Oh well.
7/23: 133
Didn't eat much yesterday because I was stressed and constipated. Feeling better today. Going to sleep over at a girl friend's house tonight so I'm sure we will eat junk food. I'll try to keep it to a minimum though.
7/24: Went to a Friend's House, No Scale
7/25: 133
After a sleepover with a friend, I did not gain any weight. I'll count that as a win. Going on vacation tomorrow. Fortunately it's a walkable city. Unfortunately everyone going (besides my husband and I) is obese. Won't have a scale to keep me accountable.
7/26: 133
Yesterday I did 15 mins of HIIT. While on vacation, I plan on doing at least 30 mins of swimming or 15 mins of HIIT every day. We are in the roadster so we weren't able to pack a lot (i.e. I had to choose between 2 bathing suits and 2 sports bras) meaning most of my workouts will be water related.

7/22:199.2 - Fluke? Who knows. But nice to be under 200 again
7/23: 201.0 - Utterly disappointing, especially after getting under 200, but weight fluctuations within a pound are pretty common for me. Hopefully I'll have better luck tomorrow!
7/24: 200.6 - On my way back down! I've been pretty stressed lately, studying for the MCAT, so my body may take this whole weight loss thing pretty slow. But at least we're moving in the right direction
7/25: 201 - something tells me I'm going to have to reconfigure my goal weight for this round *sigh*

Today marks two weeks since I've joined MFP, so I thought I'd tally the info. I've been averaging 1,218 calories per day, with about 19% from protein, 31% from fat, and 60% from carbs, with about 33g fiber/day. My goal for the next two weeks is to goose up the protein a little and get the fat down by a couple points, but overall I am pleased.
My exercise goals include doing a bit more strength training and adding in some more strenuous cardio. I've been out of commission on the exercise front for over a year, and I am pretty darned weak--time to start changing that!8 -

Might just be water weight.
I had the same thing happen a few weeks ago. I was under calories, under my sodium goal, drinking lots of water, and my weight just mysteriously kept going up for like four days. I was at the point I thought the scale may be broken, but I checked it with some weights and it was fine. Finally, the mystery weight just dropped off in two days. Weirdest thing ever, but try not to get discouraged!5 -

7/22: 193.4 waaaat?! Lol weight coming down fast all of a sudden. Probably because it's hella hot here in NYC, and I've been a lot of walking in addition to my active job. Still, wasn't expecting to see 93 this morning. Hopefully I can keep my focus.
7/23: 194.4 I knew it was too good to be true. Also, didnt get enough water yesterday. Only managed about 6 cups. But I'm still under 95 so I'll take that lol
7/24: 193.6
7/25: 193.0☺ I have a few days off, so I'm going to try staying active, even though I want to rest.
7/26: 193.4 late instant ramen craving that I couldn't deny. Also, didn't get much walking in since I was stuck doing an online training for work, but lots of water and back on the grind tomorrow.4 -

Round 10: lowest, 166.0; highest, 168.0; mean 167.7 (166 on 4 days! I know I can improve on that!)
Round 11 GW: mean, 165
22/07/2017: 166.8. -0.6 on yesterday. Today's focus is to balance macros/micros, hydrate, 10,000+ steps, 20 strength, 20 flex.
23/07/2017: 166.6. Another -0.2.
Family day today, so I got my strength and flex in early. Goals: balanced macro/micros, hydrate, 10,000+ steps, eat moderately this afternoon at my daughter's house. It's not easy to refuse when my grandson has baked for my visit, so I keep calories in reserve.
24/07/2017: 165. Wow! Didn't expect that whoosh! Had some baked goods and chocolate, but stayed under calories and stayed hydrated.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through to balance macros/micros; hydrate; 10,000+ steps, 20 strength, 20 flex.
25/07/2017: 165.6. Normal fluctuation. Today is my wedding anniversary, so I'm expecting a little more 'fluctuation' tomorrow morning!
26/07/2017: 166.5. And there it is! Lol! I enjoyed a marvellous day. Cause and effect! High sodium from restaurant meal, so holding water.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through to balance macros/micros; hydrate; 20 strength, 20 flex ✅; 10,000+ steps.
27/07/2017: 165.6. Now to stay on track. Pre-logging food (including snacks) helps plan meals. I tweak amounts when I weigh the cooked food.

I'm back for another round. It's so nice to come here and share success and frustration. I appreciate all of you and this journey we're on.
Started March 162.2
Finished round 10 on 7/21 at 144.6
Planning to lose 1.5 next 10 days. I'm adjusting my goal for the next 10 days. Figuring my age, metabolism, etc, losing 1.5# in 10 days means a daily calorie deficit of 500 calories which equals 1# a week.

7/21 144.6
7/22 143.8 Doin' the whoosh!, and drank lots of lemon water to counteract very salty bacon. 50 on ellip. Happy about the drop.
7/23 143.6 sore throat, hard to exercise, hard to eat
7/24 143.2 Not taking credit as I'm pretty sure it's a result of being sick Mostly laying around. But getting better.
7/25 144.2 Well, darn. Up. Was hoping to be in the 143's. Well, I'm better, not over it yet, but should be ellipting today. That will help. Plus, I return to eating sensibly. Been a week since the gym. Depressing. I have to get myself there even if it is in the evening.
7/26 145 Half way thru and higher. Comfort ate yesterday. Today clean eating and hopefully some exercise for the first time in days. Hopefully. What goes on must come off. Right?
7/27 145 70 on ellip but nutty buddy and wine... it could be worse. OK, tonight, the gym. I need to continue my therapy and eat right: low carbs/high protein. Wish me luck at getting back on track.

7/22: 200. What the what? Not sure how this happened (I was 201.4) yesterday. Let’s expect some to come back tomorrow. LOL
7/23: 199.6 – Woo! I’m so happy to see this. #1 I had a pretty huge loss yesterday (1.4) so expected some to fluctuate back up and #2 I traveled six hours in the car plus trying to stick to diet plan on the fly. And I also indulged in some burger/fries for lunch. Went a tad over on cals. I guess all this measuring and tracking and will power is paying off!
7/24: 200.6 – And there it is. I’ve been expecting this. At least I can say it’s not because I “cheated” or “fell off the wagon”. I’m sticking to it and will keep sticking to it. Still a net loss!
7/25: 200.4 – Meh.
7/26: 200.2 – slow and steady wins the race. Company meeting with pizza, which I plan to forgo and eat my usual turkey sandwich with fruit and yogurt.

Goal for this week is to start exercising. I see the Dr. on the 25th and told myself that after that will will start regular exercise here in the house.
Day / Weight / Comments
7/22 265.6 -- A brand new number to start the challenge! First time seeing that five! A little surprised since we had ham for supper but sodium for the day was still between 1500 and 2300.
7/23 265.8 -- Staying with 265 even after ham one night and soy sauce the next. I really expected to hold onto some water. The scale is toying with me. ;-)
7/24 265.4 -- When I look up at the ranges for the two previous challenges, this make me really happy. Keeping within calorie goal is definitely working!
7/25 266 -- Up a touch but that's okay. I've been keeping under on calories but was a bit over on sodium. Seeing the dr. later today.
7/26 266.2 -- Today I need to start exercising. I promised myself I would start today. I've gotten good at staying within my calories. Let's see if I can do the same with exercising.
7/27 264.2 -- WHOOSH! -- a nice low-sodium day yesterday after several high days. I did an exercise video yesterday and feeling it today so expected a bit of water retention. We may see that tomorrow. Now off to recalculate TDEE for that new third digit!

7/22 187: Walked quite a bit yesterday. I actually did more than my daily steps. I did decrease my calories a little throughout the day because I had a planned evening out with 5 of my friends and former colleagues at Applebees. I wanted to make sure that I could enjoy my dinner without worrying too much about my calorie consumption. I thought about canceling even though it was in the making for about a month due to family circumstances, but my husband insisted that I go. I am glad I did. I needed that mental break. I did enjoy it, and I stuck to my diet with steak, steamed broccoli, and water. Yes, it's red meat, and no, I don't eat it often. I stick to white, but red meat is good for my HDL, and I have to boost that up. I didn't eat any breads, even though broccoli does have carbs in it, and I stuck to water. I even skipped dessert and appetizers.
7/23 186.2 I denied myself pizza and instead made a quesadilla. Yes, it was still carbs AND bread, but since it's a tortilla, it was less. I even made a low carb dessert, and it was awesome! First time in a month and a half that I allowed myself something sweet, but I did it the right way.
7/24 186 ✔ I was really hungry yesterday, and I felt that way pretty much the entire day. It was so hard not to go and scrounge around in the fridge for more and more food or even to have a late night snack. I hope this weight holds. It was my goal for this challenge, and I'm now back to my premarital weight.
7/25 185.8 I started the 7-day walking plan yesterday, and I increased my steps by 500 from the goal Samsung Health had set for me. My legs are killing me today! I surpassed by goal by 1,500 steps. I'm usually out biking, but I wanted to shake it up. My body was getting adjusted to it, and when that happens, it's hard to keep losing (from what I read). So, here I am...trying something new for the week.
7/26 185.4 I put in my full 40 minutes for my walking plan yesterday, drank 48 oz. of water, and put in an extra 2500 steps to boot. I also tried out a quick and easy new recipe called "nice" cream on my kids to see if they enjoyed the ice cream that was on so good for your body instead of your booty. It was a hit!
7/27 184.6 This is not a number I expected to see this morning. It was a date night with my hubby, but I stuck to my diet at the restaurant. I completed my 3rd day of the walking plan, and I went over my steps by 2000+.

7/26 - 165.4 - LOL...I knew I wasn't going to get past 165 altogether. I'm already under my goal for this round though, so I'm good. There's a bacon wrapped hot dog with my name on it at the ballpark tonight, so gotta get some extra exercise in today.
7/27 - 165 - Lots of water and extra exercise allowed that bacon wrapped hotdog and still a small loss. Yay!
