Round 12 SW-140.4
Round 12 GW- 138.2

8/6- 141.2-baby steps!
8/7- 140.6-almost back to where I started at the beginning of the challenge. At least moving in the right direction!
8/8-139.8- FINALLY broke 140! Scraping and clawing and working my booty off to get under 140. Here's to all of you out there like me seeing the yo-yo of the scale.

My Round 1 SW 167.5
Finished round 11 on 7/31 at 162.5
Goal this Round BREAK OUT OF THE 160's
ULTIMATE GOAL 137
Day/Weight/Comment
8/1 162 Down .5#, probably should have been drinking water earlier. Upset stomach
8/2 161 had Sweet Tomatoes yesterday. Their Greek Salad was really good! No bread, no pasta, no dessert!
8/3 161.5
8/4 161
8/5 160.5
8/6 160 Hoping to break that 10 tomorrow!
8/7 157
8/8 160 Had one shot of tequila in seltzer with juice of 1/2 lemon last night
8/9 159
8/10 160 How frustrating!6 -
Started R6 @ 177.1
First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ... At a slow rate
End of R9: 170.2
End of R10 165.1
End of R11 168.1
8/1 - 168.7 .... Crap
8/2 - 168.2 .... Yay!! If I can hold under 169.9 I'll be very happy.
8/3 - 166.6 Well that's not too bad, but it's only Thursday!!
8/4 - 167.6 **
8/5 - 168.7 **
8/6 - 166.3 ** These are weigh-ins on different scales at different times in the day
8/7 - 164.4 Not my usual time but by this it looks like I faired well at the music festival.. It was so hot and the dancing burn off a few cals too and over steps in the 1000's. Let's see what happens these next few days. Tomorrow will be my first normal day ... haha 'normal'
8/8 - 164.6 This looks good, still not back to a good routine. Need to go to the store so I can bring my lunch to work.
8/9 - 166.1 I'm pretty happy with sticking around the 160's. SO leaves for work on Friday and I can probably drop a few once he is away. Continue on.
8/10 - 166.3 Up from R10 but down from R11. Been a busy couple of weeks so I'll take it!!
ON TO ROUND 13!!

Starting weight: 208 (as of July 13)
Goal weight: 125
Round 11: went from 203.6 to 201.0
Goal for round 12: increase exercise to 550 minutes/week
8/1 201.2
8/2 199.8 Whooooooo!
8/3 199.6
8/4 199.6
8/5 199.6
8/6 199.4
8/7 198.8
8/8 198.0
8/9 197.8
8/10 197.68 -
Starting weight: 211 lbs on 10/23
End of Round 11: 162.2
8/1: 162.6 - I'm tired of being in the 160's. Weight seems to be moving so slow lately. I'm over it.
8/2: 162.2
8/3: 162.4
8/4: 162.6
8/5: 162.2 - I am so ready to drop below this number. It seems my weight is just fluctuating within the same .4 lbs.
8/6: 161.8
8/7: 161.4
8/8: 161.8
8/9: 162.2 - It is incredibly hard to keep going when I keep seeing the same numbers on my scale and I know I have been under calories and sodium. I know I have to push on, but I hope I get far away from these numbers soon because I'm sick of it.
8/10: 161.2
Only a pound difference from the end of last round, but I'll take some change over no change. Upwards and onwards.7 -
Round 7--SW 229.7 EW 228.3 Weight loss/gain: -1.4
Round 8--On vacation
Round 9--SW 235.6 End 230.3 Weight loss/gain: -5.3 (vacation water weight)
Round 10--SW 230.3 EW 230.3 Weight loss/gain: 0
Round 11--SW 230.3 EW 229.7 Weight loss/gain -0.6
Round 12 --SW 229.7 EW 227.0 Weight loss/gain -2.7
8/1--229.2 Kept up with my liquids yesterday and had a weightlifting session yesterday.
8/2--229.0 Still making sure I keep myself hydrated.
8/3--228.1 Had a great weightlifting/workout session yesterday. Not sure if the weight loss will stay for the remainder of this round but it's nice to see a new low weight.
8/4--228.1 Holding steady.
8/5--227.9 My goal for this weekend is to make sure that I keep hydrated. I find on the weekend I tend to forget to drink my water which leads to me thinking that I am hungry, when in fact I am just thirsty.
8/6--227.9 I had a great hike yesterday and then had some great diner food afterwards. I made sure that I stayed hydrated, even continued to drink water after I had come home from the hike. I will continue to make sure I stay hydrated today and eat at my calorie goal.
8/7--229.4 This is why I love weighing myself everyday. It's just amazing to see how my body reacts to things. Yesterday I had a great massage, today my muscles are sore from the massage, and the muscle soreness results in water retention. I am continuing to stay hydrated and will just wait for the water weight to go.
8/8--228.3 There it goes.
8/9--227.9 And there goes the rest of it.
8/10--227.0 I am pretty surprised about this number, but I will take it. I believe that making sure that I stayed hydrated definitely helped because it kept me from eating when I wasn't hungry, but instead was just thirsty and this helped me keep at or near my daily calorie goal.9 -
Goal weight for this round: 156
Ultimate goal weight: somewhere around 125
8/1: 159.6
8/2: 158 I've been up over the last few days, so a drop was expected
8/3: 156.8 Currently TOM, so fluctuations are all over the place
8/4: 157.2 I always go up & down daily during TOM
8/5: 155 Not sure what that's about. I even ate well over yesterday. I may be a little dehydrated.
8/6: 155.6 Dealing with a stomach virus in our household going through each of my kids
8/8: 155.8 Still dealing with sick kids, plus I'm not feeling so great now either
8/9: 155.6 Bouncing around the same weight. This stomach bug is something fierce. Hopefully soon I can get back to having energy and working out.
8/10: 155.4 Feeling so much better today, I'm ready for the next round!8 -
8/1 174 Went run/walking with my dog this morning. I used to run a lot more but am currently recovering from a bad case of plantar fasciitis. I am doing the couch to 10K app and I am on week 4. Small victories!
8/2 174.8
8/3 174.8 First day of TOM today. I could feel it!
8/4 175.9 Wowza. Pretty sure the number is supposed to go down. Did have a heavy lunch yesterday, a stressful evening, and am retaining water like crazy. Today I am focusing on water, water, water.
8/5 175.9 I dreaded the scale this morning as I did a lot of grazing yesterday and drank wine at night (a couple of glasses). So I am glad it did not creep up again! I really want to see the scale go down in this second half. Went to the Y this morning and ran on the treadmill. Think I will start tracking again on MFP.
8/6 174.3 Yesterday was very productive. Spent most of the day cleaning out our shed, so was distracted. Drank lots of water, did not partake in alcohol, and tracked my food. First OP day I have had in a while. One day at a time.
8/7 172.3 Way less bloated today. Drank a ton of water yesterday and stayed in my calories. Again, tracked. Tracking (and the fact that I am weighing in every day) gave me some incentive yesterday. I ran on the treadmill for 30 mins. and did some stretching, too. More stretching tonight and a break from running.
8/8 172 Tracked again yesterday. Went over my calorie goal a bit, but did go and take the dog for a walk last night to up my steps. Did stretching last night and it was a good hurt... I am so inflexible! Not enough water (and too much wine) and night eating are my two biggest challenges. Just focusing on those things for three days has made a difference.
8/9 171.1 Survived an afternoon lunch meeting and stuck to veggies, meat, and one roll. No dessert.
8/10 171.4 Yay! Ended up with a loss. Instead of treating the daily weigh-in as an "obsession" I looked at it more as information and data. Loved reading everyone's comments too. I will sign up for the next one!7 -
R8 SW 136.6
R9 SW 132.2
R10 SW 133.8 GW 132
R11 SW 132.4 GW Staying below 132
R12 SW 132.2 GW same as before
Day/Weight/Comment
8/1 132.2-really hoping I can get below 132 and stay there this round!
8/2 132.2-still holding
8/3 131.2-Yes!!
8/4 131.2-Hope to keep going down.
8/5 130.6- This is the lowest I've weighed in 5 years!!!
8/6 130.6
8/7 132-went out to the winery for Mom's bday...yikes.
8/8 133.8-I'm sure this is because of the salt in Jimmy Johns...they are way too convenient when lunch is forgotten
8/9 132.2-need to lose just a wee bit more before tomorrow
8/10 132.2- better than going up.5 -
SW: 185.5
Round 8 SW: 185.5
Round 9 SW: 182.5
Round 10 SW: 181.5
Round 11 SW: 181.0
Round 12 SW: 179.0
I'm really hoping to get to 175.5 or lower. It's a lofty goal but it's back to school night at my older kids school on the 10th, and I haven't seen a lot of those people since the end of May. If I hit 175 it will be a 10lb loss. Wish I had started MFP the end of May instead of last week of June. Oh well.
Goal weight: 175.5
Ultimate goal weight: 128
8/1 179.5
8/2 179.5 A new # my body loves. Sigh.
8/3 181.0 TOM and had pizza, brownies and Caesar salad last night!! So bloated!
8/4 182.5 Grrr...TOM plus binge eating. So disappointed in myself. :-(
8/5 180.5
8/6 179.5
8/7 179.0 Back to where I started. Obviously I'm not going to meet my goal this round. Maybe next time.
8/8 177.5 whoohoo!! Hope it sticks!
8/9 178.0
8/10 178.0 Didn't make my goal but I'm down 1.5lbs.7 -
8/1 143.3 Exercised and stayed under calorie goal yesterday. Beach day today. Need to plan ahead for dinner out.
8/2 143.3 2.5 hour walk on beach: stayed under calories if "walking brisk" exercise calories used calculation was accurate for my walk on uneven, soft sand at Crystal Cove State Beach. For anyone in Southern California, this was a fantastic, beautiful walk!
8/3 143.7 Exercised (elliptical) and stayed under calorie goal. Realized I forgot to add a Starbucks drink on 8/1, so really was over calories on 8/1. Ready for this weight to start dropping! It has been TOM, so hopefully in a day or two.
8/4 144 Exercised and stayed under calorie goal. Had to estimate lunch calories when I shared a pad thai entree with a coworker. Did not drink enough water during the day (a problem I have when working).
8/5 143.2 Exercised and stayed under calorie goal.
8/6 143.3 Exercised and stayed under calories again. Shouldn't this number be moving down by now? MFP gives me 1200 calories. My elliptical says I am burning 500 calories, but I only count 350, and never eat back more than that. Yesterday's sodium was high (Panda Express string bean chicken bowl with side of vegetables).
8/7 142.5 Finally, 142.something. Had birthday cake yesterday. 10 extra minutes on the elliptical to stay under calorie goal. Today is my first official day back to work (teacher).
8/8 142.1 Exercised and ate under calories. Blood work this morning to see if blood sugar and cholesterol dropped after losing about 50 pounds since last year.
8/9 142.3 exercised 15 extra minutes to make up for extra calories
8/10 142.5 I didn't realize today was the last day. I wish I was down at least one full pound, but at least it's down.
I did not meet my goal, but at least my weight went down instead of up. Down 0.8 pounds8 -

SW: 187.2 (85.2kg)
8/1 - 187.2 (85.2kg) - Finishing that Ben and Jerry's on top of a big dinner was rather unnecessary
8/2 - 83.7 kg - Whoop, whoop so excited, a day of good eating and exercise
8/3 - 83.9 kg - Happy with that. Didn't expect a further drop from yesterday. Onwards and upwards, well downwards
8/4 - 83.7 kg - Yay.
8/5 - 83.9 kg - Ah well, was well over my calorie goal.
8/6 - 83.8 kg - Realistically: This is great. Had a real drop of weight at the beginning and it's still gone. Had a great Saturday without randomly snacking. Soo wohooooo! Emotionally: Grrrhmmmpfffffff!!
8/7 - 84.8 kg -
8/8 - 84.5 kg -
8/9 - 85.2 kg - just great! Back to where I started, just so annoyed with myself. Yes some will be just eating late etc but still. Really struggled to motivate myself. Hopefully I can finish on a high tomorrow
8/10- 84.8 kg - overall it's less so woohoo but a bit sad that I fell of the wagon in the middle.
Thanks for the company everybody. Hope to see many of you in the next round 6 -

Goal for R12 = 229.9
Day / Weight / Comments
8/1 - 231.2
8/2 - 231.4
8/3 - 231.4
8/4 - 231.0 Ah...That's more like it. Have done a lot of reading, lately, about nutrition. I noticed my Potassium was extremely low. Seems like a lot of the foods that have K (potassium) are healthy foods. So, yesterday I focused on food for health. Love that we can keep rack of our minerals and vitamins here. Also, I started taking a multivitamin.
8/5 230.8
8/6 230.8
8/7 227.8 not s true number because of no food- prepping for medical procedure. I'm sure it will go
Up.
8/8 230.0 Alright! Up from yesterday as expected. But down!!! Hope this one is true
