Aim: To never rise above 195 ever again!!!
8/21 - 196.4 (Full disclosure, I'm quite bloated today, I ate too much salt and calorie-high food yesterday... I was 194.6 on the 20th. So if there's a big drop tomorrow it's not real weight loss. LOL)
8/22 - 197 Ok, so the bloating was a bit worse than I thought! But I'm being a good girl.
8/23 - 195.8 Yay moving in the right direction!
8/24 - 198.2 Ok, so this was a slap in the face, but I deserved it. I let myself go completely wild yesterday... Sugary foods for breakfast and snacks, Thai food (pasta) at lunch, & All you can Eat Sushi for dinner. I was 3000 caps over the limit even after my half-hearted workout. Today I will make a change and be good.
8/25 - 195.4 Yay!!! Being a good girl pays off!!! All bloating is now gone. Anything I lose from here on out is weight!!! I hoping to see 193.8 BEFORE these 10 days are over!
8/26 - 193.8!!!! I'm over the moon happy right now!!! Got on the scale 3x to make sure it was real!
8/27 - 193.8 Holding steady!
8/28 - 192.6 Unbelievable! I'm so happy right now! I was a bit over my limit yesterday because we ate out but I kept my portions small and it seems to have paid off!!!
8/29 - 192.8 So my scale bounced all over the place today. I usually get on twice to make sure it is a consistent number. Today is was sooo different that I got on 5x and it was never the same number! I'm wondering if there is something wrong with it. Anyway. I recorded a number that seemed the most consistent and realistic. It's still low! So I'm happy.

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.
8/27 no scale in the woods.... lots of hiking up and down hills, ate sensibly, brought chicken and veggie foil packets for dinner.
8/28 141.6 Whoop! Slept very late for me and some of this loss is thanks to kidneys but I'm celebrating. All that hiking burned some cals. Gonna make some chicken/veggie soup to stay below my high yoyo for this round. Thank you body. PS... I have lost 21 pounds by this morning's weigh in. Doing the happy dance.
8/29 142.4 Got to gym, ate clean and below cals and carbs. Happy with this number as I wanted to finish this round in the 42's or below. Going to get in some elliptical today and more chick/veggie soup - made a bunch. I want this number to be my new 'high'.

@PrincesseAly23 when that has happened to my scale in the past its always been the battery that's needed replacingshnookie70 wrote: »8/29: 193.4 – Kinda crazy. I couldn’t get away from 197 in the last round and now here I am in the 193’s. Maybe the scale batteries are going dead?

@shnookie70 I hope to follow you next round, I need to put more distance between my weight and the 200's5 -
Starting Weight: 207
Ultimate goal weight: 130
R13 (my first) SW 206.8
R14 SW 203.2
R14 Goal: 202
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 alcoholic hol 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.
8/27 - 200.6 - UGH. Rode my bike 10 miles yesterday. But I did gorge myself at dinner. Even though I stayed within calories it wasn't a healthy choice. Maybe tomorrow I'll hit ONEderland.
8/28 - 199.8 - wahoooo!!!! ONEderland it's so nice to see you! I'm sure I'll bump up again before I really settle here but it's still nice to see that number. #hardworkispayingoff
8/29 - 200.8 - Bummer. Was hoping to hold in the 190s but I had a feeling it wouldn't happen. Today's goals: Water, water, water.9 -
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
8/27: 178.4 I am down 2 oz from my original start weight. This round has been like a roller coaster. I have been up and down everyday, even if I just lose a lb this round, I'll be happy or not go back and stay in the 8s.
8/28: 178.8 What is up with this round? I'd normally be upset, but not this time. Maybe I'm growing in my mental strength to deal with these numbers being all over the place and wonky. I am remaining steady, and that's a positive.

8/21 - out of town
8/22 - out of town
8/23 - 194.9 Back from Eclipse viewing and other exhausting things. Did not have access for a few days.
8/24 - 194.7
8/25 - 195.5 I'll own it. I've been slacking. That's why this thread is good. I need to tighten up. Of course I hope it's water retention. I don't think I've been that bad.
8/26 - 195.5 No change in scale weight, but I feel like my skin is going to pop open, I am sooooo bloated.
8/27 - 198.1 **sigh**
8/28 - 197.1 Break is over. Let's get this train moving.
8/29 - 194.7 The bloat is flushed. Now to refocus on daily tasks: exercise, meal planning. Daily focus is important; as seen here a few days off track can be off-putting.

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.
8/27 253.6 I had a pretty good day Sat. eating better, got some good steps in. Will really watch it today and log everything.
8/28 253.2 That wt. makes sense, ate average did about 8300 steps, back to work for the first time in 5 weeks, I should start dropping some weight again. 10 days goes by quick I really enjoy this challenge.
8/29 254.1 Hmmmmmmmmm well, I'm not sure what happened here. My steps were pretty good around 7500, I guess I guess I did more grazing than I thought yesterday. Must reboot and refocus.

8/24 – 225.3 WOW, I knew I should have said no to going out for Mexican food. YIKES. After eating good for a week then eating like I did last night… I felt bad all night. But I was able to get up and get a workout in before work!
8/25 – 225.1 Quiet night last night… to quiet. I did keep to one of my new goals, do not eat after 7 at night. I didn’t drink as much water as I wanted, and dinner was high in sodium…. But my mind set is still focused on my goal.. GET HEALTHY, EAT SMART, GET STRONG
8/26
8/27
8/28 – 225.0 The weekend is over. Two day beach trip, followed by working the ER last night… ugh…. Still was able to get up and get after it for 30 mins of good ol’ sweat dripping ground push, plank holding, kettlebell lifting cardio workout.
8/29 – 223.5 WOW what a nice surprise. I know I’m cutting back on portion size, plus I mowed the yard last night… so maybe little bit of water weight loss.
Today is my first day of trying some intermittent fasting (I/F) so we’ll see how it goes.

8/21: 314.0 : Good start not gained. Hopefully tommorrow I can leave the 314's and go downwards.
8/22: 314.0 : Scale keeps flickering from 313.2 to 314.0 but sticks to flashing 314.0, would like to see a 313 change tomorrow.
8/23: 314.0 : Why won't it move?? I'm happy it's not going up but I am working out and eating my target and under.
8/24: 314.4 : Finally some movement but in the wrong direction. I did eat a heavy dinner so guess it could be from that. Maybe now it can go down?
8/25: 314.4 : Okay with this even though was under calories.
8/26: 314.4 : Same again. Maybe something's wrong with my scales?
8/27: 316.2 : Well I wanted a change...just not this one. Let's start again.
8/28: 315.2 : Getting back down. Now to get back down to the 314's.
8/29: 314.6 : Nearly back to 3 days ago, not going to make my goal though this week.6 -
