R13 SW - 71.2kg (157)
R14 SW - 71.5kg (157.6)
R15 SW - 72.2kg (159.2)
It looks like I’ve gone up since starting this challenge but last round I reached my goal of 69 something however timing was bad and I had travel for work which included a lot of functions and drinking so I’m confident this ‘gain’ will come down this round after I get back into 5:2.
R15 Goal - 69kg something (152.2 - 154.1)
8/31 - 72.2kg (159.2) - a lot is water weight so trying not to stress. No exercise and have had a big couple of days of eating out and drinking due to work trip.
9/01 - 71.5kg (157.6)
9/02 - 72.2kg (159.2) - pizza last night
9/03 - 72.9kg (160.7)
9/04 - 72.8kg (160.5)
9/05 - 71.5kg (157.6) - work travel has really played havoc with me this week. Need to get back to the 60s quickly to feel better about myself.
9/06 - 71.3kg (157.2)
9/07 - 70.9kg (156.3) - don’t think I’m going to make my goal. Friday dinner is always out

I see a lot of people upset by apparent weight gain when they have been working their butts off. Body weight can fluctuate from one day to the next depending on so many factors. From my experience:
- Changes often take several days to show on the scale.
- A drop is often followed by a bounce up before it settles back down. A general downward trend is the aim.
- A high sodium day usually results in water retention, unless you drink extra fluids to flush it out.
You are making positive lifestyle changes which will lead to increased health and fitness.
Slow and steady leads to sustainable weight loss.
But remember to live a little along the way! [/b]

Round 15 Target weight: 162
30/8/2017: 163 A week's holiday last round put me up a bit again, but have already lost 2/3 of it.31/9/2017: 162 Yes!!! Goals ✅ Another one bites the dust. Overdid the sodium yesterday, but drank extra water to flush it out.4/9/2017: 163.4 Goals ✅ Small drop. Back on track. Just a couple of slack days have consequences.
1/9/2017: 156.6 or 164.2 I got both readings this morning, and a whole lot in between. Scale is being temperamental. I moved it all over the joint, changed the batteries, still going haywire. Goals ✅ Did a lot of sitting at the computer, may not have hydrated enough. Let's see what tomorrow brings. Technology can be annoying!
2/9/2017: 162.2 Phew! Scale has settled down again! Goals ✅ Had a good workout 1st thing. Lots of water. Sticking to my goals and daily plan.
2/9/2017: 163.8 I was expecting that. Goals ✅ apart from a minor blowout on chocolate after dinner. Drank lots of water early in the day, but forgot to combat the sodium in lunch/dinner later in the day. Live and Learn!
5/9/2017: 162.6 Goals ✅ Much better. Still working on losing holiday baggage from the summer.
6/9/2017: 161 Goals ✅ I have finally lost the holiday baggage from the summer months. Time to batten down the hatches and go for my ultimate goal.
7/9/2017: 161.8 Goals ✅ Normal fluctuation. Often get a bounce after a whoosh. Still below where I started the summer, and my R15 target.

31/8 // 212.5 // Focusing on controlling those snacks at night. So far I've stuck to my meal plan 2/3 days this week. It's great until I get home. Burnt stir fry this morning so I'll have to buy lunch today. AND it's food market day. Will see how it goes. I actually dropped 1.7 lbs between Round 3 and Round 14. Maybe I'll set -1.7 as my goal for this round... slow and steady. WAVES to all who check in today.

8/31 - 73.9kg (162.9lbs)
9/01 - 73.9kg (162.9lbs) - Only did 60 min yoga yesterday and ate cake in the afternoon (work thing) so wasn't expecting a shift in weight. Don't think I went over my calories though (had to estimate the cake) - but I have my allowed intake set to just 100 kcal less than my TDEE (like I said - don't have that much to lose so taking things slow and trying not to eat back all my exercise calories instead).
9/02 - 73.9kg (162.9lbs) - Had Pizza Hut for dinner yesterday so wasn't expecting that!
9/03 - 73.7kg (~162.4lbs)
9/04 - ? - Woke up late and didn't have time to weigh myself, so since I usually do it the same time in the morning I'm skipping today.
9/05 - 73.7kg (~162.4lbs)
9/06 - 74.4kg (164lbs) - Had a thing at work yesterday, so not only did I have a three course dinner, I also had two glasses of wine. But oh well, hopefully it'll be gone again in a few days!

Main target this round (and most likely the next round) is to lose the weight I gained over the holidays...
8/31: 65.9kg - same as yesterday
9/01: 65.5kg - in a good flow, accurate logging and firmly back in the (spinning) saddle
9/02: 65.3kg - can't wait to see the back of 65kg again
9/03: 64.8kg - wow, super happy with this, looks like I'm dropping it as quick as I put it on
9/04: 64.7kg - struggled yesterday, but determined to keep this up
9/05: 64.7kg - same as yesterday, which is fine
9/06: 64.7kg - patience patience patience...
9/07: 64.3kg - that's better!

Second round for me. This round will be a challenge itself as before my period I have irrational cravings. If I get through them without gaining weight then it will be already a complete challenge!
R14: start 61.3, end 60.9, average, 61.0 (-0.4kg)
R15: goal 60.5 kg (New Goal 9/04: get under 61 kg)
Ultimate goal: 57 kg
8/31 61.0 - cravings started yesterday evening. I I went out to meet some dear friends, ordered salad and water, but still felt hungry after that. Then ordered nachos (boo)! Thankfully that the scale showed only +0.1kg . Hope I can start running soon, as I am healed from last week's cold.
9/01 61.1 - chaotic day, had a lot of stuff to do. I ate when I could, and what I could find.
9/02 61.2 - chaotic day #2. Felt very tired and ice cream was my friend in need.
9/03 61.5 - Darn, last night I ate out, a little bit too much bread, but my oh my it was goood! The kind of food that is worth the extra weight and 10km it needs to loose the wieght.
9/04 61.4 - NEW goal for this round: get under 61. I am still happy to be in the 61s as 66 was my fiend for a while.
9/05 60.7 - HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? Glad it did, though Ate some cake yesterday, and french fries, so -0.7 kg it's a miracle..
9/06 60.7 - held yesterday's weight. 50minutes of swimming, 2km running (came up after 2 weeks break when I was sick, and could not run more).
9/07 61.3 - cravings before my period starting to kick in. Hopefully will keep the 61.0 by the end of the round.

Round 15 I would like to be in the 180s. I realize that eliminating the water pill from my medications, signalling better health, will probably usher in a water weight gain as my body gets used to normalcy again. I hope I deal with it gracefully... Welcome Back Friends!!
8/31 - 191.6 Well I knew it was coming, the weight gain from eliminating the water pill. I'm on a liquid diet from oral surgery, stacked 2 cord of wood yesterday and came in with a significant calorie deficit so this is definitely fluid in some capacity.
9/01 - 192.4 Day 3 of liquid diet, I seem to be salt and carb loading. Today I can start soft foods for two weeks, at least I have more choices. When it's all over I'll have a brilliant smile, it won't erase the memories but it will erase the daily reminder of a time I would rather forget. On a better note, my bp without the water pill is still running around 110/70 and I see the Dr in 6 weeks, hopefully I'll be in a downward trend by then and he can eliminate more meds. Sorry for the grind guys... feeling the stress of the scale going up when I'm on point.
9/02 - 191.8 Went over on calories but still under maintenance, pretty sure that bottle of wine isn't included in a liquid diet. Crawled out of bed at 11:30 pm and staggered around the block in my pajamas because I was at 8900 steps, and I didn't want to break my 10000 step streak. Not sure if my loss is dehydration or that my fluids have finally levelled out.
9/03 - 194 I have no words
9/04 - 192.4 okay better..
9/05 - 190 This morning this happened, I really don't know if it's real or not.
9/06 - 188.8 Yup, it was real! Hooray for wooshes!
Awesome!!!!!5 -
I am definitley in! This group has been such a motivation to me. Last round was really difficult between having the flu and TOM being here. I've also found it incredibly hard to do my 30 minutes of biking 5 days a week since school started back up. When I get home from work, I am completely exhausted from molding little minds all day, yet I still have to help my own 3 children with their homework, cook dinner, pack lunches, and it usually isn't until 8 that I get to sit down. I need to be able to figure out how to fit exercise back in. I thought about mornings, but I get up at 5:30 as is to get my oldest on the bus and as soon as he leaves, I wake up my youngest to get him out the door. (Staggard busing here.) When he leaves, I leave for work. Any suggestions?
Round 15 SW 178.6
Round 15 GW: 178
UGW: 125
08/31: 178.6 I am back to where I started last round. Lol
09/01: 179.6 I am at a plateau. That's okay though. I'll keep walking, eating right, and drinking my H2O.
09/02: 177 Woo Hoo!!!! I have lost 25 lbs. now, and I met my goal and then some. I met last week's goal.
09/03: 176.8 Yes!!!! A little bit more has come off. I have been walking a lot more than I ever have before. My water intake was awful yesterday because I was gone all day running errands. I need to up my game today for that. I was under my calories but not by much either.
09/04: 176.6 I am losing a bit at a time. Still had a rough day with water, but I did better than I did the day before. I ate well though and plan to go biking with my husband this morning.
09/05: 176.8 My day started off well with a healthy breakfast, and I went on a 6 mile bike ride with my husband. Then, I barely touched water, skipped practically every meal, and ate a high carb and high sodium meal last night. I must admit, the dinner and the skipping of meals was a really bad choice. Did I fall off the wagon? No, it was almost 10 at night when I finally had my dinner because I spent all day in the hospital with my Mom. My Mom in this instance is my mother-in-law for clarification. She is battling lung cancer and could barely breathe. I sent a text to check on her and knew something was wrong. My husband and I rushed her to the hospital to find out she has developed pneumonia. It was a difficult Labor Day to say the least, and she will be there for I don't know how long.
09/06: 176.4 Slow and steady wins the race. A friend of my brother's asked me to pull over yesterday. He said he asked my brother who I was, and he said it was his sister. His buddy said that is not your sister. My brother told him about my weight loss journey, and the guy just had to tell me that I was looking really good. Awesome validation for all of my hard work.
09/07: 176.4 HOLDING STEADY!

Round 15
SW 161.9
Goal for ground 15 159.0
8/31 - 161.9 - yesterday was hard and today will be too - back to school which means inservice - lots of sitting in one spot and feeling hungry to stay awake yet no motivation to work out when you get home. Hopefully I can do something physical tonight.
9/1 161.2 not bad considering yesterday was inservice, I sat all day, didn't work out, and had Wendy's for lunch
9/2 161.3 - had almost 20,000 steps yesterday but went and had a pretty calorie dense dinner because it was cold and I wanted potato soup so overall not bad!!
9/3 161.3 - had a lot of steps but no actual exercise, also stayed around my calories even around date night with hubby - hopefully today's exercise makes a difference on the scale tomorrow morning
9/4 160.2 ahhhhh!! Getting close to 159's!! Going to have to keep up the activity this week because it's my mom's birthday on Wednesday and we will have cake, plus we are celebrating with the family on Thursday. MUST keep up the activity!!
9/5 160.7 ???? Had picnic food but also major activity and a bit of s stomach bug...not sure about the gain?
9/6 161.3 - yesterday was the first day of school plus Labor Day leftovers plus 16,000 steps on high heels leading to sore legs - we will see how this goes...
9/7 161.0 - had an extra long day, salty dinner, cake for mom's birthday...I'll take it

I'm back!! Starting a day late on this round, we returned from our road trip last night. Much food I normally don't eat was consumed (think Poutine, Smoked meat, crepes...LOTs of wine LOL) so I know most of the reason I'm way up is that. I kept my breakfasts and lunches lighter so I could splurge at dinner....
So here goes 9 days of trying to get rid of the water bloat so I can see what the real damage was.
SW in March - 182.4
GW- 150 - I think I will re-evaluate when I get there...I'm not sure I'll be done...
Day/Weight/Comment
8/31 - no scale
9/01 - 157.4 - Results of our trip to Ottawa and Montreal. Also TOM started yesterday so this is a double Whammy. Going on a trail run this morning and will drink lots of water and get back to my regular meal routine.
9/02 - 156.8 - starting to shed some bloat. I already feel better being back to my routine for just one day.
9/03 - 155.4 - chipping away at the bloat
9/04 - 153.6 - many trips to the bathroom yesterday...shedding the vacay and TOM gains. I doubt there will be much more "easy" loss....but getting back on track with some meal prep and routine with the boys starting back to school tomorrow. Want to get to my 150 goal by the end of Sept, hopefully sooner.
9/05 - 154.0 - low energy and didn't do well with getting my water in yesterday.
9/06 - 153.4 - I have a feeling I'm going to bounce around a couple of lbs for a bit then then whoosh it out. Great day yesterday! And I've already got my run and an express kettlebell work out in today...feels great to get back into a routine with the kids back at school.
9/07 - 153.0 - chipping away

9/06 - 188.8 Yup, it was real! Hooray for wooshes!
9/07 - 188.8 Wow, truly in the 180's... I took out my fall clothes and they are all hanging off me, sucks that I have to go shopping for new clothes

9/06 - 131.6 no surprise here. The stress of Hurricane Irma and living in So. Fl is not helping. along w/not logging. I am trying to refocus and stay on track. Was at the gym this morning. Eating has been fair, but I will log!
Just stay safe! We'll be here for you after the storm passes.

5/9 - 160.3 Was so hot last night, should have went swimming. It's very smokey here today and an errie yellow glow with strong scent of fire. Air quality will not be the best so step goal will be interesting. Will try and walk the Big Box stores and see if I can reach my goals.
6/9 - 160.6 Hit steps but felt a little 'off' yesterday. Never put much in full moon effects but maybe with this smoke and the full moon coming its hit me. Sleep has been terrible.
I lived out in Montana near Yellowstone in 1988 so remember those incessantly smoky days. I hop the rains come soon for you and put it out! Stay safe! (Hey, at least with all the smoke that summer I quit cigarettes.)3 -
Last round’s “mid-weight” was a bit up because of a logging hiatus for 4 days but it ended at a new low so hoping for more normalcy this round and ending it nicely down in the 250s. Goal for this round is no drama! CICO!!
Round 8/1: HW 274.4 LW 269.8 MidW = 271.9
Round 9/2: HW 269.4 LW 266.8 MidW=268.1
Round 10/3: HW 269 LW 266.4 MidW = 267.7
Round 11/4: HW 267.4 LW 264.2 MidW = 265.8
Round 12/5: HW 264.8 LW 261.2 MidW = 263.0
Round 13/6: HW 263.8 LW 260.6 MidW = 262.2
Round 14/7: HW 266.4 LW 259.2 MidW = 262.8
8/31 359.4 -- How nice to start out a challenge in the 250s. The top of the 250s but I’ll take it!
9/01 261.2 -- Not unexpected. Ate a commercial pizza sodium bomb and snacked away any deficit. Back to normal today and aiming toward a low sodium day, too. Lots of water to be drunk..
9/02 260.4 -- (Speaking firmly to myself) Heidi, don’t get cocky and think you can double up the deficit the day after you blow through it. You only lose control and snack right through it again!! The new normal is fragile. It must compete with lifelong dietary hubris!
9/03 259.4 -- Back to normal eating. A hearty brunch around noon, perhaps a mid-afternoon fruity snack, a hearty supper, a bit of an evening snack -- all within calories.
9/04 258.6 -- Ahhhh … CICO … self-satisfied smile
9/05 258.0 --That’s 25 pounds down! Yay!!
9/06 258.4 -- A bit salty yesterday.
9/07 258.0 -- Finally ate the “mystery” container of chicken soup from the freezer last night. I think that takes care of all the prepared food for which I have no calorie count from before I commenced logging. I used someone else’s high number for homemade and figure it’s close enough. Now I put such things in my recipes so I can retrieve it when I need it..

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31: 192.8 – didn’t eat enough yesterday. But still walked a lot.
9/01: 192.2 – Ate over cals yesterday. I made a big mistake the other day not eating enough, because I am so tired and drained now that I ate too much and didn’t work out. I am looking forward to this 3 day weekend!
9/02: 191.8 – Ate good calorie wise yesterday, over on the sugar, but treated myself! Walked our normal 3.25 mile route. Really happy with my results lately. I can’t believe I’m knocking on the 180’s door! I’ll have to buy some new clothes soon.
9/03: 191.4 – kind of a lazy day yesterday. I will get moving today.
9/04: 191.2 – Walked A LOT yesterday. Ate a little high on calories, hubby and I walked to the local burger joint (1.2 miles one way) and had a couple beers and split a burger and fries. Shopped and got some new work pants a size smaller! Woo!
9/05: 191 – the day after a long weekend. So tired! I just wish I could sleep a couple more hours. Ate a little extra yesterday, but not derailed by any means. And I hit my R15 goal!
9/06: 192 – Some bad food choices catching up. Goal today is to drink lots of water and get my food back on track and walk.
9/07: 191.4 – Calories and water good yesterday. I didn’t get a chance to walk since after work, grocery store, cooking and eating it was 9:00pm. Tonight I go to a meal planning meeting and get weighed and measured for a six week challenge I signed up for at a local gym.

Back again! I started last round at 144.4 and finished at 142.4 so happy. I'm looking to get to 141 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.
We are all champs!
Day/Weight/Comment
8/30 142.4
8/31 142 ....45 ellip and gym yesterday! Yeah me!
9/01 142 and holding... for now. 1 hr weeding and 30 ellip yesterday. Ate smart but had a late night snack, something I never do but seemed like a good idea at the time. LOL today: gym and ellip.. Happy Friday All, stay strong.
9/02 142.4 Made it to gym and an aqua aerobics class but kinda blew it later. It's ok. The scale will go back down. I'm off to the forest for a couple days so hiking will be good change from ellip. I hope to come back in the 1's. Have a great holiday weekend (for those in the States).
9/03 no scale
9/04 no scale
9/05 144.2 Well, that hurts. Rained until morning we were leaving and so we ate in restaurants which never helps. Last night on way home had Chinese. Hoping this is mostly, or all, water weight. Lemon water and maybe to gym.
9/06 142.2 That's better. No exercise since I had a phlebotomy yesterday and losing 500 cc's of blood makes that out of the question. Ate reasonably and drank some lemon water. 3 days to get in the 141's.
9/07 141.4 Yes! Reached goal for this round; now to stay here. Lots of protein yesterday and some lemon water... my fav bev. Need to get some exercise today.
