Day/Weight/Comment
8/11: 167.6 Lowest in two or three years!
8/12: 168.0 Normal bump. Pizza night last night. Still lower than last year!
8/13: 167.6 Meeting calorie, sodium, and water goals. Will probably see bump up again tomorrow from today's swim.
8/14: 168.0 There it is =D. Normal, expected bump from exercise. Been out of the 170's for 10 days. Woohoo!
8/15: 168.4 Oh scale, oh scale, why do ye forsake me? Hehehe.
8/16: 168.2 All is well. 7-day averages have been under 169 for a week now. Hopefully the 170's are behind me for good!

1st round for me! Currently doing 5:2
R13 SW - 71.2kg (157 lbs)
R13 GW - 70kg something (154.3 - 156.3)
8/11 - 71.2kg (157)
8/12 - 73kg (160.9) - out for dinner last night and had pizza calzone so expected that
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
8/16 - 70.7kg (155.9) - surprised after the wine and late night munchies. This will go up no doubt
8/17 - 71.1kg (156.8) - sigh....I can’t see this going down before Sunday morning. Not when the last 2 days are my biggest calorie days of the week
8/18 - 71.4kg (157.4) - I’m ok with this as I ate at maintenance rather than deficit. I’m resolved to the notion that there will be no recorded loss at the end of the 10 days purely because the challenge finishes on a high calorie day for me before my two days of low cals start. That’s ok because I’m still surprised this number isn’t higher as it has been other weeks

8/12//208.3//I need to start losing and stop yoyoing. Focus on diet for next 9 days.
8/13//207.2// that's good now to keep it there. Had a family party thing today and I hope it didn't do two much damage.
8/14// 211.9 // So the damage was done. I feel awful. Not about the gain. I feel actually sick. Sad face.

8/17// 211.9 // I've been sticking to my meal plan and working out but this week's numbers aren't staying down. My waist feels smaller though and my t-shirts fit a bit better so I guess I'll see what the weekend holds.
8/18 // 211.9 // at least it hasn't gone higher. Maybe I should drink more water or cut my calorie intake a bit.

SW, 212 (highest recorded weight) I've no idea what my highest weight was!
R09, (my R1) SW 203.4
R10, (my R2) SW 200.4
R11, (my R3) SW 200.6
R12, (my R4) SW 199.4
R13, (my R5) SW 195.4
my start weight for this round is a new fluke (i think) low, SO I don't expect to get any lower this round
goal for R13 to make being under under 196lbs permanent
UGW 140
10/8- 195.4 - <<< yay!!! .... muscles screaming in agony This is a new low
11/8 - 196.8 - I expected this ^^^ that was a big drop ^^^ possible dehydrated -- THIS is still a drop from the day before! sore muscles, cals are low by average, Rest day drank my 2L water
12/8 - 198.8 - strained a muscle, in my shoulder and calf, so I am assuming this is water retention just NO HIGHER
13/8 - 198 - muscles feeling a bit better, calf completely pain free today, shoulder still niggling 25 miles NO water
14/8 - 200.2 - WTH - I know its not "real" but *sigh* ---- Rest - feeling ill and bloated NO water
15/8 - 200.2 - still ill bloated and no water,
16/8 - 200.2 - NOT the number I wanted to stick at - how absolutely disheartening is this!!! went back to bed this morning in the hopes of waking up to a different number .. but NOPE the scales are hating me right now TRUST IN THE PROCESS - calories are fine but getting water down me is impossible, I can't stand the taste at the best of times, let alone when I am feeling ill. DRANK 2L WATER
17/8 - 198.8 - still a little ill but much better, choked down my water yesterday so I don't know if the number on the scale is a reflection of that or if its a reflection of feeling a bit better today, or if indeed drinking the water is why I feel a little better. the mysteries of the body!!! DRANK 2L WATER
18/8 - 198.4 - Actually I'm happy with this as I am down from the last round now, and I know that round was a really big drop, although I wouldn't say no to another 1lb in the right direction

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...
8/16: 181.2 lbs...Okay, I'm going to be honest here...that sudden weight loss was unexpected, but I am starting to get bummed by the fact that it's still creeping up. I decreased my calories a bit to get the # back down the last few days, and it hasn't worked. I refuse to go any lower than I have. Maybe soon it'll start creeping down again.
I almost reached my goal for steps yesterday too. Water was once again a struggle for me. I need to step it up.
8/17: 181 lbs...Has anyone ever felt like that they've just run out of energy? They are tired of tracking calories and making all these healthy recipes and just want a big, fat, juicy cheeseburger? I am so there right now. However, I keep eating healthy and ensuring that I get up and move. I am proving to myself that my will power is stronger than I ever knew.
8/18: 179.6...a new low for me. I haven't seen a 7 in too many years.

8/14 - 233.2 time to get this moving
8/15 - 232.4 my body actually listened
8/16 - 231 I will take it until the scale tomorrow says otherwise. No bad news today. Plus I passed my exams so all is well in my world today.
8/17 - 232 still good. Let's see what the next 3 days can bring.
8/18 - 232 I switched to Centrum silver which has iron compared to wellwoman 50+ which doesn't. Haven't been able to go (lifelong issues there). May have to switch back if this continues because daily I consume 25-35g fibre and roughly 13-15 cups of water so that isn't the issue. 2lbs in 2 days...

Back for more accountability, support and sharing. Finished round12 at 144.4. Would love to get at 142.4 or below for this round. Total loss since March at end of round 12 = 18.5 #.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 144 READY, SET, GO! Nice drop. Went to gym yesterday. Good workout. Didn't get much sleep last night and got woken by 2.5 yr old grandson. Wish I had his energy first thing in morning. Ellip today and perhaps some stretching. Happy Friday!
8/12 143.8 Love it. I'm in the 3's again. Too tired to exercise yesterday.
Played with grandson most of day. Probably go to gym today. I'll need to get some exercise in as going to a friend's for dinner and that means a couple glasses of wine. Thank goodness she is also losing weight and eating healthy/clean/low cal, etc. I want to see some steady weight loss this round. I'm due, I tell ya! Happy Saturday!
8/13 143 I don't think this is a whoosh but food poisoning last night and the attendant vacating of the stomach. What a way to stay under calories. Blahhhhh.
8/14 143 Happy to see it stay the same. Ate well yesterday, stuck to protein and veggies and champagne grapes. Yum. no exercise. Just recovering from being ill. Ellip today and hopefully gym. It's Monday, start of a new week. Go for it!
8/15 143 Yes! 30 min ellip yesterday as well as a great session at gym. Lowered bar on Smith machine to keep moving forward fitness wise. Ate too many carbs at dinner though. Tortillas and refried beans. Looking for an hour on elip and a drop tomorrow. Almost no sleep though so we'll see. Feel good and love that my capris from last summer literally fall off me. n Persist!
8/16 143.6 Understandable. No sleep night before last and watched toddler all day so ate more than usual for energy - which I think is a fallacy anyway. Some lemon water and exercise and I should be back down. I need to buckle down to reach 142.4 this round.
8/17 144.4 Big sigh. A couple of beers. Waaaater W! Well at least my yoyoing is lower. The march continues.
8/18 144.4 45 on ellip and some floor exercise and gardening... Need to regain my focus re food choices- I'm getting too many carbs. Going to amusement park today so I'll get some walking in. I need to get back to planning my day's meals and snacks again. Happy Friday all!

I love our little community that grew! I look forward to my cup of coffee and scrolling through the comments every day. I learn from our mistakes, am saddened by our setbacks and look forward to your victories possibly even more than my own. Welcome everyone to Round 13 which will end in a new moon and usher in a solar eclipse for a spectacular beginning to Round 14.
8/11 - 193.6 they should have a happy dance emoji!
8/12 - 193.4
8/13 - 193.8 another day under calories but felt like I was cheating for some reason, I think it's because I was eating the same as the family and not modifying it for myself except for measuring portions.
8/14 - 193.4 had my big drop so I suspect I'm going to stay around this number for a while. Be nice to see 192 before the challenge ends
8/15 - 193.4

8/12 180.6 No ice cream.. Ate better... trying to remember 1 day at a time
8/13 180.6 stayed the same No up and down so I am going to figure this is my real weight
8/14 181.2 back to the starting weight... Went to Casino and had sub for lunch and dinner so that didn't help

Round 12 (My round 1) was a great round for me garnering a 9 pound loss. Most of that was the loss of weight gained during vacation so I am not expecting those kinds of results for this round.
For this round I will set my goal to 156 pounds.
10 August - 160.1 weight at the end of round 12 (my round 1) - So ready to break into the 150s
11 August - 159.2 OMAD + No Meat
12 August - 158.7 Today ended up being a splurge day so I am expecting a gain in the morning.
13 August - 159.5 As expected - Glad I stayed in the 150's - back on track today
14 August - 159.0
15 August - 160.8 Was hoping not to see the 160's but I know it is water weight and will be gone soon.
16 August - 160.4
17 August - 160.7 A bit of after meal snacking last night but today's a new day

8/11- 277.0 Starting over. Too much stress, worry, anxiety, emotional eating since that dreadful day. Husband was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer (after having a clear colonoscopy 18 months earlier), would have never known, if he didn't get a bad case of constipation. He wasn't sick and was walking 3 miles a day and had lost 40lbs in 6 months. Then same day, letter of foreclosure auction came and in the afternoon - I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. I asked God, "What Else?" LOL Bad mistake. Last week I received diagnosis of osteoarthritis and torn meniscus (makes getting packing done a little hard). Signed up for Planet Fitness earlier in the week.

SW - 260lbs
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 - 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!
8/15 - 231.0 - still trying not to get discouraged although I did so well yesterday. Perhaps it's because I'm building muscle or TOM. I will work on getting more water in to help with any bloating. I am alsp at the gym again today so happy about going two days in a row. Hopefully all this work will show by the end of the week!
8/16 - 230.8 - I've gone to the gym 3 days in a row! Mood and energy increasing. Although the scale isn't showing it, I will count this as a win for this week!
8/17 - 230.0 - lowest so far. Woohoo. Slow and steady! Heading to the gym again today
8/18 - 229.4!!! Woohoo I did it. Finally in the 20s. Hoping I keep going down and don't see the 30a again! 4 days in a row at the gym may have helped. Taking 2 days off to let my body heal a bit then going back on Sunday. Looking forward to the weigh in tomorrow!

Here I am again!
SW - 3/20/17 - 182.4lbs
GW - Want to get to 150 and then maintain for a while to work on fitness instead of weightloss, I expect I will probably drop a few more lbs as I figure out where my calories need to be to maintain...but I'm cool with that I think 140 may be my ultimate goal but I want to take the last 10 slowly.
8/10 - Coming in from round 12 - 154.8
Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 - 151.8 - SUPER WHOOSH...all the weight and then a bit extra is off from my vacation de-railment. I was up almost every hour to pee last night lol...so I was obviously releasing everything my cells were retaining. I'm within 2 lbs of my original goal weight. I'm going to add a snack to my meal planning this week to slow things down a bit. Picked up my kettlebells for the first time in over a week this morning so I expect to be sore tomorrow.
8/12 - 151.4 - right direction! Cleared out all the size 12's and Larges from my closet...AND...bought two pairs of size 8 capri pants from the summer clearance rack yesterday!!!! BIG NSV!!
8/13 - 152.2 - just a blip. Ate around maintenance cals yesterday...mabe a smidge more...but not enough to gain a lb of fat. Probably bloat from the beers my bod isn't used to having. A long bike ride is in the plans for today...going to burn it off.
8/14 - 154 - Sodium and sore muscles. More water, mindful eating and light activity today...and a trip to the chiropractor...
8/15 - 154.2- Hrmm...fingers feel puffy for some reason this morning. I banked some of yesterday's calories for today since we're heading to Toronto for the ROM and the Jays game...I know my food choices won't be the best (gotta enjoy the full ball park experience). We will be walking LOTS and I'm heading downstairs to work out before we leave...
8/16 - 153.6 - The 18000 steps walking around TO yesterday seems to have counter-acted the beer and Roger's Centre popcorn at the ball game...
8/17 - 153.8 - yesterday was a hungry sleepy day...kept my calories where they needed to be but I wasn't too active.
8/18 - 153.6 - hovering in the same area...

8/12: x : Missed day.
8/13: 315.0 : Hope to get back down to the 314's.
8/14: 315.0 : Just happy it's not gone up. Planning a day of workouts so hope for tomorrow it will start to drop.
8/15: 315.2 : As long as it stays in the 315's I will be happy for this week.
8/16: 315.2 : Ugh - was under calories.
8/17: 314.0 : woo hoo, finally getting somewhere.
8/18: 314.0 : Stayed same, just .1 down and I will be in my goal. Good luck to me.10 -
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!
8/16 / 211.1 / whoa! That was a big whoosh! I knew I was retaining water so I'm glad to see that go.
8/17 / 210.9 / ran 3.25 miles yesterday at 6:30pm and ate most of my calories after. First weigh was 212.3 but then visited the bathroom and stepped on the scale again. Gotta remember to weigh the same way each time.
8/18 / 211.7 / I ran 2 miles, walked 1.2 last night. Started my monthly cycle as well, so this is n't totally unexpected. I really thought yesterday that I would have gained with how bloated I felt. As long as I hover in the 211s for the rest of the time I consider this round a succes

8/11- 236 - New scale
8/12 - 233.2
8/13 - 233.4
8/14 - 233.2 time to get this moving
8/15 - 232.4 my body actually listened
8/16 - 231 I will take it until the scale tomorrow says otherwise. No bad news today. Plus I passed my exams so all is well in my world today.
8/17 - 232 still good. Let's see what the next 3 days can bring.
8/18 - 232 I switched to Centrum silver which has iron compared to wellwoman 50+ which doesn't. Haven't been able to go (lifelong issues there). May have to switch back if this continues because daily I consume 25-35g fibre and roughly 13-15 cups of water so that isn't the issue. 2lbs in 2 days...
4 lbs in 7 days is quite terrific! Congrats =D
Thank you for putting it in perspective. I was so focused on where I desired to be that I forget where I started.6 -

End of Round 12: 142.5 (8/10/17)
47 yo female. 5'6
8/11 143.6 So much up and down! 30 min. on elliptical and ate under calorie goal yesterday.
8/12 142.2 That's better. 30 min. elliptical and ate under calorie goal.
8/13 143.3 way over calories. theme park day
8/14 142.6 30 min. elliptical and under calorie goal
8/15 141.3 better! Surprised after eating so much on Saturday. Daily (nearly) elliptical paying off finally?
8/16 140.9 Finally moving down! Ate under calorie goal and 30 min. elliptical.
8/17 139.9 Wow! No exercise yesterday (Work +Back to School Night for daughter + Band event for son = no time) ate 100 over calories. It may be time to adjust the weight loss rate from 1.5 pounds a week to 1 pound a week. I actually had a free wellness check through my employer yesterday and found out my body fat is only 24.8% now, which is on the lower end of normal for my age group according to Kaiser. Also glucose level and cholesterol in the normal range! That is why I started this in the first place in July of 2016 when my doctor wanted to put me on cholesterol medication and said I was prediabetic. I am so happy with this! I will see the results of my fasting bloodwork (yesterday was nonfasting) next week at my regular annual appointment. I am so glad this has paid off in such a big way. My BMI was 31, obese, a little over a year ago, and now it is 22.6 (according to Kaiser testing) and 23 according to charts when I look it up on line, right in the middle of the healthy range. The dietary changes I have made in the last year have been so worth it!
8/18 139.3 Slightly over on calories. No exercise. Another very long day.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 - Out of town with no scale and out of my exercise and food routine. Went over calories yesterday and very little movement due to seminar. One more day of this then back to my element so hopeful I can still meet goal for this round.
8/12 - 164.2 - *sigh* trying not to be too hard on myself for a less than a lb gain...no scale or exercise the last couple of days and more hungry than usual for some reason, although I did make good choices. Weekends are tough too food wise, so making a conscious commitment to lots of exercise and water and staying under calories these next two days.
8/13 - 163.8 - getting closer to where I started the round with a long workout, extra water and staying a tad bit under calories.
8/14 - 163.6 - everything on point yesterday. No time for exercise today so need to be extra conscious of eating.
8/15 - 163.6 - holding steady
8/16 - 163.2 - Hanging out around 163/164. Have time for an extra long workout today so maybe I'll break into 162.something soon.
8/17 - 163.2 - Dear body, I'm giving you permission to let go of a couple of lbs. Sincerely, me.
8/18 - 163.2 - Dear body, That's not funny, but I still love you. Sincerely, me.

SW: 249 (March 2017); CW: 232.4 (although my official weigh in on Monday was 231.8); GW: no idea yet but for this round I'd say 230.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 - 232.4 - up a little from my Monday weigh in but hoping to see that come back down by Monday
8/12 -232.6 - up just a touch, but took mom out to dinner last night so probably a bit of a sodium bomb; starting a 5k training program this morning and pushing water
8/13 - 232.4 - forgot to post this yesterday. Moving back down.
8/14 - 232.0 - moving in the right direction! This week I need to focus on my water intake. I've also started some running training intervals, so that may be causing me to retain a little water as its more intense than my usual walking. Hoping water and having a better week calorie-wise (I was over two days last week) will get me back where I want to be.
8/15 - 231.2 - under what my official weigh-in was last week! With careful eating and a little luck I might make it to my goal for this round.
8/16 - 231.8 - hovering up and down in this small range - hoping for a woosh soon
8/17 - 230.6 - hoping this is actually moving down finally; family reunion on Saturday will be my first real test of making good choices
8/18 - 230.6 - holding steady so this may actually be real; nervous about tommorrow - going to look at maintenance calories so I can try not to overdo it too much, but the hardest part will be tracking
