My goal for this round is to continue to keep up with my hydration. I would also like to work on my flexibility, so I'm going to stretch for at least 5 minutes a day.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/21--227.2
8/22--227.0 Tonight I am flying to see my parents. I was contemplating whether I should bring my scale, but I decided I will. I'm still not sure if I should bring my food scale or not. I am sure the 5 hour flight will show up in my weight tomorrow. I forgot to stretch yesterday, but this morning after walking the dog I did my stretching.
8/23--228.6 I know this number is not accurate. Between the water retention from the flight, the fact that I have had less than 4 hours of sleep, and the fact that my scale is at a different location, I'm not surprised that the weight is up.
8/24--226.1 Another weigh in at my parents house so not sure if this is a true loss loss or not, but I will take it.
8/25--225.9 Went to the rec center near my parents house and did my weightlifting yesterday. Also did my stretching. Going out for dinner with friends tonight so I expect a gain to show up tomorrow.

8/25 130.6 Happy to see a steady decline on the scale. I feel like I'm back to my true weight and the rest was mostly water weight. I've been eating good this week and walking each day. Busy weekend, my daughter's 2nd birthday and party. The taco bar (and margaritas) at her party will be hard to resist, but I know I'm going to moving around so much this weekend getting ready for the party and during the party I won't sit still, so hopefully it all evens out!

R14 SW 157.8 Goal this round: Stay under in calories & add in exercise. Weight loss would be nice too. HaHa!
8/21 157.8
8/22 Forgot to weigh in.
8/23 158.6 It's ok, I'm highly motivated now. I can't tell the world yet, what it is that's motivating me, but I'm very excited!
8/24 158 I had problem when I burnt my Lean Cuisine TV dinner. I scorched it & it was not edible. But needed to eat lunch... ended up with an higher calorie lunch than I'd planned. Oh well. I'm still very excited!!! I know that I will lose a little in the next 6 days... at least I hope so... adding in exercise so don't know how that will affect at this time.

End of Round 13: 157.0
8/21: 156.2 - weight seems to be melting off at this point. I won't complain!
8/22: 156.4 - TOM is here and I feel lousy. Wouldn't be surprised to see my weight creep up a bit from TOM.
8/23: 156.8 - I've been under calories, but obviously TOM is causing gain. One thing I like about weighing daily is I know things like this happen and it doesn't stress me out.
8/24: 156.0 - TOM is still here, but feeling better and weight seems to be moving in the right direction again. Would love to keep it here or lower.
8/25: 157.4 - yesterday was the day from *kitten* was way over sodium and about 100 calories over as well. hoping my weight drops back down soon, but not sweating it.

Round 2 for me. I really like the 10 day commitment. It breaks down an otherwise impossible goal into manageable segments. Thanks for having me!
8/21 - 202.8 - after a weekend, I'll take it. Back to eating on point, no alcohol and a LOT of water.
8/22 - 202.2 - went slightly over calories yesterday. Drank over 100 oz water. It's slow but the process is working.
8/23 - 200.8 - WHAT?! I had to step on the scale 3 times to register this. I'm sure I'll post a gain tomorrow but still psyched to see this number.
8/24 - 200.4 - honestly surprised I've maintained in this area for another day. ONEderland is so close!! Drank over 200 oz water yesterday.

I've been losing and gaining the same 3 lbs since March. 173 is my lowest, I just so want to see the 6's again.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/21-176 Ate Mexican food out for the last 3 nights. Wonder why I gained 3 lbs back?
8/22 - 175. I knew some of this was just sodium. But I DID run 2 miles last night.
8/23 - 175. Did some weight lifting and went for a walk. Stayed within points. Its a win for today.
8/24 - 174.8 I'll take it. Stayed under points, ran and did yoga.
8/25 - 174.4 still the right direction. Took a rest day. My body was complaining. Back to working out today.

Yesterday I ate sweet and sour shrimp. And it was deeeelicious. But I paid for it.
8/22: 131.8
Damn Solar Eclipse.
8/23: 130.4
Back on track I hope! My IBS-C is not flaring up today
So I can actually see some progress. The past couple of days it's been off. I am still learning my trigger foods but I've gotten better. I started by eating very little for a few days then adding one or basic meals in at a time (until I splurged on the s&s shrimp). I'm learning a lot that way.
8/24: 130.8
So my big goal is to come in under calorie count today. Every time I get to the 130 range I splurge and then overdo it because, "hey I'm close enough to where I want to be." Not this time.
8/25: 129.6
I got on and off the scale like 5 times just to be sure this was right. I am in shock! I haven't been in the 120s since high school!

8/23: 206 -- over calories (but trending downward), worked out. I think this week is shaping up to be an unintentional diet break (at it since late April).
8/24: 206 -- nothing if not consistent (weight, eating, workouts, etc.) This has been, and continues to be, an awful week on many levels so I'm happy to maintain right now.
8/25: 204.8 -- under calories thanks only to a vigorous workout.

Hi, I'm in! This is my very first round!!! Hoping to break my plateau that I've been in for about a week. Got to 168 but have been hovering around 170 the last few days...
SW: 176
CW: 168
GW: 135
Goal for this round: <168
Day/Weight/Comment
8/21 - 170.2 -frustrated that I'm hovering at 170 the last few days. Though after a weekend of being a bit looser on my diet, it could be worse.
8/22 - 170.0 - at least there's some progress even if it's small. Actually a bit surprised since I went over my cal count last night. I did well for most of the day but caved in to chipotle tacos for dinner. I'll do better today!
8/23 - 168.8 - yes! That's more like it! Was below cal count yesterday and went to a zumba class! :-) going to try to go to the gym again tonight. Maybe work on some strength training.
8/24 - 168.0 - alright! I'm hoping to break 168 before the end of the week. Haven't gotten below that yet. I was under calorie count yesterday (though over on fat). Went to gym and burned 200 cals doing various cardio exercises (stationary bike, treadmill, elliptical). Also worked on arms. Overall a good day!
8/25 168.2 - was slightly afraid to check my weight today. I stayed under cals yesterday but had pasta for dinner and didn't exercise. A bit sad that it went up slightly, but not the worst. May not make my below 168 goal this week, but maybe by the end of the round??? Going to go try a pilates class today.

Starting weight 126.5
Goal weight for R14 123
Final goal weight 112
8/21. 125.75 (nice number to start with!)
8/22 125! - I know I obviously didn't lost 3/4 of a pound overnight, but hopefully this is a real lost that has just been masked until now. Still quite chuffed about this. I'm hoping to get down to 124 by thursday (my weekly weigh in, I weigh everyday but this one i use for comparison and do other measurements) even if it is 124.75. On the right track, but won't be too gutted if it goes up again as long as I keep eating healthy.
8/23 125.75 Back up to where I was haha. I had a lot of sodium yesterday and did an initial test for strength training challenges, which involved going to the maximum amount of reps I could do, so possibility I am retaining water for that as well. Oh well. I also finished level 1 of the 30DS, so I'm ready to move onto Level 2 now. I feel smaller, and I know I'm stronger, so it's just a matter of time till the scale represents it. My official weigh in is tomorrow, so I wonder If I'll reach my goal of being within 124.
8/24 -126.75 I'm actually quite upset about this, because it seems to imply I didn't lose any weight this week and that the days on the scale were just lying to me i guess it's possible it's because I'm still sore from exercise yesterday? Idk. On plus side I've lost 1 cm from my hips, thigh and arm, and 1/2 cm from my waist since last week (but they could always be off...so)
8/25 -126.25 I'm upset and annoyed as the fact I'm back up here seems to suggest I haven't lost any weight and this has all just been a natural fluctuation of about 2lbs. Which means I've lost nothing in over two weeks

Don't get upset about minor fluctuations. It is what it is. If you have been staying within calorie limits and eating at a deficit, you are losing weight. Look at the long term trend. Besides, you have very little to lose so these pounds are going to be the hardest. Remember, as well, that the strenuous exercising you are doing causes your muscles to need more water to heal.5 -

Round 13/6: HW 263.8 LW 260.6 MidW = 262.2
My goal for this round is to have recovered from my eclipse-weekend stay-cay with friends from out of town.
8/21 264.6 -- I’m creeping up the last few days due to taking a logging vacation while friends are in town for the eclipse. They leave later today so starting tomorrow, it’s back to the new normal.
8/22 266.0 -- We saw the totality through a break in the clouds BUT four days of eating with wreckless abandon has sure packed pounds back on. I know some are water but some are probably truly “recovered poundage.” Back to counting & measuring today.
8/23 266.4 -- Oh, I see, the scale is going to be ugly about it. Anyway, yesterday was a nice, easy, within calorie limits day. The is an interesting experiment.
8/24 264.6 -- Okey dokey, starting to go back down. Made homemade pasta last night and a single egg batch is now two meals worth rather than one (4 servings rather than 2). That’s an improvement for both of us.
8/25 262.6 -- It’s going to take more than 3 days of TDEE-500 to recover from 4 days of reckless abandon but I’m getting there! It’s been surprisingly easy to eat within limits again.

Barely stayed under calorie but I am always hungrier after cardio. I don’t eat back exercise calories because I don’t know how accurate my Apple Watch is about calculating calories burned.

Stayed under calorie. It was harder to feel satisfied and found myself fighting the desire to eat due to boredom. NSV: Upped a set strength training.

8/21 -131.5 stable. That's good. Long walk around the lake through the hills and then to the gym. I had an eclipse gathering at my house today. Hopefully not too much damage.
8/22 - 131.1 love the trajectory. Hopefully I can keep this up and reach 130 by the end of this challenge.
8/23 - 132.1 Not really sure what that is about. Although my logging has been a bit haphazard. I am hoping it goes away as fast as it came. And I will be better about logging. Taking responsibility.
8/24 - 131.8 still not doing a decent job at logging. Working out ok. I think mindful eating but who knows without logging. Tomorrow is another day. And 6 more days in this challenge. I remain hopeful & determined!
