SW: 166.4
GW: 164.4

Round 13: SW 167.6, EW 166.4 (-1.2 lb), LW 165.4, HW 168.4, AVG 167.9

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21: 165.8 Very pleased. Yesterday was Take Mom to the Movies day. I pre-planned salted, buttered popcorn & soda into my meal log. Didn't add salt to the popcorn after all (and tasted just fine without). Proud of my changes in thought patterns. My former self would have written off the entire day as a "cheat day," throwing in a movie hot dog and/or candy too.

8/22: 167.0 Tried going to the restroom one more time after morning weigh-in to drop me in the 166's. Tee hee, tee hee. I'm so silly! If this is as high as it goes this round, I'll be happy.

8/23: 167.2 I'm sure this has *nothing* to do with the leftover 7-layer dip, chips, and pies my roommate brought home from a fundraiser on Monday.

The quicker I eat it, the sooner it will no longer be a temptation!

8/24: 165.8 Good deal. Average over last 10 days is now under 167. I'm loving the overall downward trend!

8/25: 165.6

S14 SW - 229.6lbs
S14 GOAL - 225.0lbs

8/21 - 228.8 - feeling great. Walked to and from gym. Did 12.9km walk/bike/elliptical! Almost reached my 100km in Aug goal! I've been going to the gym every day except rest days and i am not craving to go. I've been eating very well and prepping my food ahead of time. I've been motivated my Bigest Loser Team and my Buddy! I have more energy and my mood is more positive! I've been drinking at least 4-24oz bottles of water a day with a goal of 6.5 bottles!

8/22 - 228.6 - slow and steady

8/23 - 228.8 - i had a down day yesterday both mood and no exercise. I ended up binging on 90 calorie chocolate treats... so back on track today. Went to the gym at 8am. Going to clean my car. Then go for a walk later today!

8/24 - 227.6 - yeh back on track! Went to the gym this morning, didn't eat enough right before because I had errands so didn't push as hard as i normally do due to lack of energy. Walked home from the gym then to and from my dentist appt. Also achieved my 100km walk/bike/elliptical/row today!!!! I'm going to see how many more km I can get in so i can beat it next month! I also lost 2.4lbs since last week when i weighed in for the Biggest Loser Challenge!

8/25 - 227.2 - still going down! Did a 8.5km walk today and ate well! Looking forward to weighing in tomorrow.

Current weight-160.38
10 Day Goal: Get under 160 and stay there.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21- 159.94 I doubt the weight is correct, but I'll take it for now. Exhausted today and almost caved to fast food for dinner. Instead, I chose a refrigerated soup and half a cheese sandwich for dinner. Hoping to get some food prep done tomorrow so the week runs easier.

8/22-159.72 Another tiring day here. Haven't had energy and my sleep schedule is off. Need to get back to taking my vitamins.

8/23- 159.5 My back pain has flared up, so I haven't done much more than take medication and sleep all day. Hoping tomorrow is a better day.

8/24- 159.94 Absolutely no real reason for the gain other than normal fluctuation. Remaining under calories. Hope the scale is nicer to me tomorrow.

8/25- 158.84 Tried the scale 4 different times to make sure my scale wasn't misbehaving.

I would be thrilled if I could end this challenge at 158. Still maintaining my calories and have plans to make freezer meals this weekend.

Currently doing 5:2

R13 SW - 71.2kg (157)
R14 SW - 71.5kg (157.6)

R14 Goal - 69kg something (152.2 - 154.1)

8/21 - 71.5kg (157.6) - happy with this as I feel I have lost weight over the last round even if the start and finish don’t reflect it. This is a good weigh in for me considering it’s after a weekend and TOM.

8/22 - 69.8kg!!!!!!!! (153.9) - goal made!

I find 5:2 tough on what I call my ‘starvation days’ but that excruciating willpower all seems worthwhile when I’m finally dropping! Only 3.5kg to go until I’m back to where I left off and changed directions for awhile. And then it’s straight to my goal range!

8/23 - 70.5kg (155.4) - expected after a bottle of wine. Still riding high on yesterday’s result.

8/24 - 70.7kg (155.9) - all good, surprised I’m still 70 something at this time of the week.

8/25 - 70.5kg (155.4) - pretty content with staying around the same weight so far this week. I won’t be doing 5:2 next week due to a work trip involving lots of paid meals so a bit disappointed this is already going to affect my good streak. I finally feel like I’m back on track and seeing and feeling results. Hopefully the trip away doesn’t set me back too much.

8/26 - 71.1kg (156.8) - going to have to cop that after pasta and lots of wine. Think I beat my PB of 26:35 at Park Run this morning though

Hey everybody! I'm in again but with a late start. I've been battling the stomach flu, so just tracking my calories and forcing myself to eat and drink has been hard. Since work started back up 2 weeks ago, I couldn't call off either, so pushing myself to do that has taken all my energy.

Initial Start Weight: 202
R14 SW: 178.6
GW: 177
UGW: 125

08/21: 178.6 Not at all surprised considering how horribly sick I was.

08/22: 179.6 I am so okay with this. I just don't want to see 180 again. Lol

8/23: 180.8 Welp...I jinxed it. Lol It is what it is.

8/24: 179.6 Whoop...there it is...again. lol

8/25: 178.6 Back to where I started 5 days ago. I am beginning to feel more like myself now after being sick and am grateful for that.

8/26: 179.4 Well, here I go again. This round has been nutty! Lol

R14 SW 193

Ten more days of accountability. My goal for this round is at least one pound to get to my 50 milestone goal. So happy to see people continuing the challenge

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21 - 191.8 met my 50lb milestone today.

8/22 - 191.2 I'm being rewarded plenty for sticking to my guns this round as I stayed in the 193's for 10 days last round. It is sometimes hard to be patient as I seem to spent a lot of time waiting for the scale to show the payoff of my hard work. I see the pattern though and know if I stay motivated the numbers will move steadily downward.
8/23 - 192.2 High salt day, was so good though!
8/24 - 191.4 I knew it wasn't going to stay -- now I'm wondering if I can possibly get into the 8's in this round.

Back still! Did the yoyo thing last round; ended up where I started 144.4. I vow to be more conscious this round and to exercise more - hard to do lately because of family commitments. I'm looking to get to 143 or below without bouncing back. I started midway through Round 2 at 153.9 on 4/29. Slow going but better than nothing. I'm at roughly .5 a week loss. I need to get a little more serious this round.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/21 144.4 - 45 on ellip and 1 ice cream nutty buddy. Did forgo the enchiladas I made yesterday and had a salad with the chicken and black beans on it. My goal today is to keep carbs no more than 50 and calories 1000-1200. Happy Eclipse everyone!
8/22 143.2 Woo Hoo! Hope some of this loss is fat. Now to pay attention so that I continue the downward. 75 min on ellip and made a crustless mushroom quiche - high in protein, tasty and satisfying and low in cals and carbs. More ellip today and hopefully get to gym. Remember, you are beautiful.
8/23 144 Ah phooey... knew it was too big of a drop all at once. Still, down almost half a pound since Monday. Gotta get me to gym today by hook or by crook. Did 60 min on ellip and ate within cal, below on carbs. Merry losing, ya'll.
8/24 144 Got to gym yesterday - love it. Makes me feel like Wonder Woman. Ate within cals and carbs. Waiting for a whoosh. Since the weekend is coming a lunch out with friends, I'll be extra good today and tomorrow.
8/25 143 Again! LOL Surprised as my son asked me to make Chinese drumsticks which have a lot of soy sauce = sodium. Happy Friday!

8/26 144.8 There's the sodium and 2 slices of pizza and mixed drink. Higher than when this round started. Off to camp out and maybe get some exercise. Didn't make it to gym as I'd only had 3 hours sleep. I want to see the scale say in the 142's before this decade ends.

Ultimate Goal weight: 155

R10: 204.6 – 201.4
R11: 200 – 203
R12: 200.8 -195.6
R13: 198.4 – 197.2
R14 Goal 194.9 (need to hit that 195 goal!)

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21: 198.4 – so surprise here. Way over on cals the last couple days.
8/22: 196.4 – Wahoo! Finally see a decent drop. Let’s keep this going.

8/23: 196 & 195.6 – Weighed myself twice today, once when I got up and again about 30 mins later. I don’t know which one to record so I’m recording them both. Super sore today from Monday’s workout.
8/24: 195.6 - .7 pounds from my short term goal weight. Once I get there and keep it for a week, I’m rewarding myself with a fancy new workout outfit.
8/25: 195.8 – Not as exciting as a loss but not bad either.
8/26: 195.4 – Woo! Didn’t expect this as I had a carb/fat pigout last night. Spending 6 hours in the car today. Sure way for me to retain a little water. I’ll fit in some exercise somehow.

8/24 205.6 did a hour of light cardio country heat. Counted my calories. Ate good, but should of drank more water

8/21 252.6 The weekend is over now it's time to get rid of water wt. and eat healthier.
8/22 252.8 Sounds about right. I could have eaten better but my exercise was pretty good.
8/23 253.3 Had a little pizza indulgence yesterday, not typical of my eating habits but I'm sure its a factor in my increase. I did walk 8569 steps so that helped offset the bad choice.
8/24 255.3 Oh my gosh, why did I eat that salty food yesterday? I know it will blow me up like a balloon. Crap.

8/25 256.0 Man I am sucking wind here what the heck, is this a challenge to see how much I can gain in 10 days?
8/26 254.1 That's more like it, my weight does fluctuate a lot I eat any salt I retain water like crazy and vise versa.

Here I am again!!!
I'll only be around the first half of this round...heading on an end of summer road trip with my boys before school starts, but I'd like to keep on top of things before we leave. I got within 2 lbs of my current goal weight for a couple of days last round and then the day trip adventures with the kids threw me for a loop...I'd like to stay under 155 and then tackle those last 5 once the routine gets back to normal when school starts.

SW - 182.4 - March 20, 217
GW- 150 for now - would like to maintain and focus on fitness for a while.

8/20 - 152.2 - coming in from round 13...on my mom's scale

8/21 - 153.8 - back on my scale...I can feel I'm holding on to water weight (plus some real weight) from my not so great food and drink choices over the weekend. Going to make the next 5 days count before we head on our trip.
8/22 - 153 - had a sleepy day yesterday but got a short trail run in and kept the eating in check.
8/23 - 152- good food day yesterday...made good clean choices and even had a small bit of really nice chocolate at the end of the day (instead of the whole bar LOL). Getting close to my lowest weight from last week before I went haywire.
8/24 - 151.2 - Can I get at WOOT WOOT!!! Back down to my lowest from last round...which is also I think my lowest since before I got pregnant with my youngest who is 10. Made the best oreo brownies with my boys yesterday and only had 1...which I used my exercise calories for (trail run and kettlebell workout)...feeling AWESOME this morning!!!
8/25 - 150.8 - SO Pleased with this week!! Excited to be so close to my goal before we head on our last trip of the summer. I'll come back with a bit of a gain to work back down but I know what I need to do. Next two days will be on my mom's scale and then I'll be scale-less for the next 4.

8/26 - 152 - on my mom's scale - fish and chips and a beer last night for dinner...they fit in my calories but the sodium and carbs are making me water puffy this morning.

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!

8/26 130.8 Not the best dinner choice last night and had some adult beverages. Woke up early today tho and got in a morning walk. Lots of party prep today, I'll get lots of steps in!

8/24 - 161.6 - got some good exercise in, lots of water, and stayed at calories. Progress showing up on the scale!
8/25 - 161.6 - did well with calorie intake yesterday but no time for exercise. Lots of exercise coming up today though!

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!!

8/25 - 200.6 - still surprised I'm maintaining around here again. Thought for sure I would see a small gain. Maybe all the water I'm drinking (200 oz a day) is helping?!

8/26 - 200.8 - I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed that I haven't hit ONEderland yet. It's toying with me! Heading out for a bike ride today. Should probably revise my goal for this round.

Thank you for the kind words yesterday, it did help.

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

8/26 - 124.5 - Well this is nice! But I'm still very confused about the fluctuations. Hopefully the trend continues downwards. Glad I didn't decide to say screw it to my diet yesterday when my weight wasn't doing what I had hoped. Hopefully it continues going down.
