Fortunately there's no real damage! Someone told me once regarding days you feel like you've blown your plan "if you were at a party and spilled some red wine on your carpet, it doesn't mean you have to dump the whole glass on the floor!" Same goes with your health you can have a bad day and it doesn't have to ruin everything.
PS: You can do it! Besides it's probably just a few pounds of food and water that will leave you soon if you know what i mean...
Note: Don't leave THAT on anyone's carpet!

FIRST TIME: But I'm in!
Starting Weight: 180
Starting BF%: 42
Goal Weight: 140
Goal BF%: 30

8/11- 179.2 I know it's only a few ounces but yesterday I started in earnest with my workout and healthy eating routine. 180 is the most I've ever weighed in my life (before that it was 169 and I haven't checked the scale in between so this was quite a surprise). Just to see this number tip little bit is inspiring... and I'm off to the gym!

8/12- 179.0 Just began a breakup with my partner this morning. Parting with him, I believe, is also part of my self care. Hoping I can stick to my workout and calorie schedule. Though all I want is cheesecake and chips to soothe my soul. (Edit: thanks to all of you for your support and camaraderie )

8/13- 180.0 I weighed myself after the gym and a late breakfast so this "gain" isn't too surprising but I'm hopeful for tomorrow. I did eat about a pound of queso and chips yesterday... I am human, I stress eat, and I am beautiful.

8/14- 178.0 and 41% Body Fat. Sweet! Going to keep this up and find some Perrier that @suebee143 mentioned!

R09 SW 235.6
R10 SW 230.3
R11 SW 230.3
R12 SW 229.7
R13 SW 227.0

I had a big loss last round so not expecting much of a loss for this round, but we will see. My goals for this round are to make sure I stay hydrated and, since there are two weekends in this round, to work on being more mindful of my eating on the weekends.

8/11--227.0 Holding steady.
8/12--227.0 Still holding, but my trend weight is going downwards. Need to make sure I keep up with my water today.
8/13--228.1 Went out to eat yesterday, so the increase is probably due to the additional salt. I'm very happy that I still stayed within my calories and I drank more water than what I usually drink on the weekend. I'll continue to keep up with the water today.
8/14--228.1 Holding steady. Still feeing a little bloated today. The weekend was a success as I kept up my hydration levels and I ate more sensibly than normal, so I'll just wait for the scale to follow.

R13 GW - 70kg something (154.3 - 156.3)

8/13 - 73.2kg (161.4) - no, all is good, another huge dinner and dessert out. On my 500 cal days now so will expect this number to go back down. Not stressing just yet
8/14 - 72.2kg (159.2) - on my last 500 calorie day for the week so hoping this comes down a lot more tomorrow
8/15 - 70.9kg (156.3) - woohoo! Onto normal calories for the remainder of the week now so hoping this number continues down. Going to try to eat at normal deficit to still account for the big meals out and wine on the weekend

R12 - start 242.2 .... finish.. 231.0
- total lost 11.2lbs ( although i had been down to
233 earlier that week... so more like 2lbs)
Goal this round - get to 227lbs.
Start weight 230.2

8/11 - 230.2 - hard day as i was out of the house doing errands this morning and had a salad from subway and snuck in 2 cookies. Then I had to bring my son to emerge and ended up get a cheese bagel with butter and Greek pasta salad. Then for dinner I was so exhausted I made a premade chicken rice teriyaki frozen bag for dinner and a piece or pork chop. I think i drank 1 bottle of water so I anticipate a jump tomorrow due to salt intake. Tomorrow is a new day!
8/12 - 230.6 - I'm relieved it only went up this much! Back on track today. I'm planning on getting in at least an hour walk. Track all my food today. And drink drink drink to flush out any extra salt.
8/13 - 230.4 - not my lowest yet but close. Had such a great day today. Ate well. Tracked everything. Went on a 8.5km walk with a friend and logged 11700 steps! I'm looking forward to what the scale has to say about this tomorrow.
8/14 - 230.6 - I'm not letting myself get frustrated by staying the same because i know i am pushing my self in staying track in eating and exercise (it is also that time of month!). Today I walked to and from the gym - 5km - and did 30min cardio and 20 min arm weights. Feeling so great!

Starting to get disheartened, but need to keep at it. Other things are improving, such as sleep and mood, so I know I'm going in the right direction.

It can be slow but if you keep logging your food, getting some exercise in, you will lose. Can you look over the last few days and see if there is something you could have done different? Are you just at a plateau? My doc told me that if I just ate 250 calories a day less I'd lose 1# every 2 weeks. Doesn't sound like much but it ends up to be 26# in a year. That's just 250 less.

Thank you for the encouragement! I really appreciate it! I have looked over the last few days and there are definitely some things I could be doing different. I've been under my calorie goal consistently, but I know that I have been over in some of the other areas, like cholesterol for example. And I know that as a woman, I am getting close to that time of the month, and that's always a tricky time for weight. I will just continue on my journey, and make changes as I go. Thinking about what your doctor said is a great way to help me stay on track too, so thank you for sharing that!

I'm in again. I am so, so very happy to start round 13 too! I did it peeps. As of this morning, I have hit my 20lb mark! I've lost all the weight my doctor told me to lose. However, I know it's still not my ideal weight by any means, so I'm going to keep pushing on.

CW: 182 lbs
GW: 180 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs

08/11: 182...Woo hoo!!!! I'm doing a happy dance!

08/12: 180.8...completely shocked by this #. It's such a big drop all at once, so I'm expecting it will more than likely go up tomorrow. I put in a lot of steps between housework and grocery shopping.

08/13: 180.4 lbs...still shocked over seeing this number, and it is working on creeping down still. I biked 6 miles yesterday. If I get in the 170s at all, this will be the first time since 2004 that I've seen it. After the birth of my first child, 3 years of depo were not good for me. So, I packed on 80 lbs. Idk what I'll do WHEN I see that number again.

8/14: 180.2 lbs...remaining steady now that I had the big WHOOSH. I had a harder time getting 48 oz. of water in yesterday. I didn't "exercise," but I did imo. I rearranged furniture in two rooms, and I swept my car and cleaned out the interior. I have 5 kids that ride in it, so that was a major undertaking.

8/15: 181 lbs...I was expecting a gain to happen, and it did. In a way, I am bummed because I really want to see that #7. In a way, I'm not because I was anticipating it, and it's still close. I stayed within my calories, drank 48 oz of water, and had a 10-hour work day. I did end up having to eat around 7:30 because of that, and I'm not supposed to eat after 6. I think that could have contributed. On to tomorrow...

8/11/ 213.8 / Nice to see the scale move!
8/12 / 213.8 / ran my first 5k in 18 mo nailed my time ate a lot after! Lol
8/13 / 213.8 / stuck to my calories today for the most part. We'll see what the scale says tomorrow.
8/14 / 215.6 / what the heck... I did eat out for every meal yesterday so I know estimation was probably way off. I can only imagine this is water weight since I barely drank any yesterday. Good thing it's Monday and I have my 40ozer sitting at my desk waiting for me. Keeping my fingers crossed tomorrow or maybe wed I'll see a loss!
8/15 / 215.6 / ran 2.5 miles yesterday, was under calories, in just waiting for another whoosh I guess!
