HeidiCooksSupper · September 2017

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..
9/08 257.2 -- I blasted right through my deficit with excess snacking last night. Gotta cut that out! Gonna have a long, serious chat with myself today. Even more so, tonight. “Don’t snack, Heidi! Go to bed! You’re really tired not hungry!”

9/09 256.8 -- a nice new low to end the challenge!!

Round 15/8: HW 261.2 LW 256.8 MidW = 259.0 Life is good!!

8/31 - 132.1 I am the epitome of a yoyo for the last 2 months. I have to believe that if I want the loss bad enough, I will do the right thing. Obviously, I am not going to reach 130# this month. I leave tomorrow and return home to my regular scale. I will be interested to see what it reads

But it's not just about the numbers!
9/01 - 131.7 on the road today and no scale tomorrow
9/02 - no scale. I will be home in 4 hours and back to my comfort zone for habits (exercise and eating). Looking for that 130# and then my ultimate goal to get below that!
9/03 - 130.8 back to my scale at home.
9/04 - 130 At the gym. Back to my routine. Things are looking up.
9/05 - 130 staying steady. But have not been logging. A little afraid what tomorrow will bring. But hoping my workout mode will help me and tomorrow I will log!
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!
9/07 - 131.6 Hopefully will get better...
9/08 - 130.8 I am good with that for this round.Finally below the 131 mark at the end of a round. Bring on round 16.
9/09 - 131.8 annoyed. Homemade pizza last night. But not happy I am not < 131!

I missed that there was one more day oops! Hope I can hold onto being below 131# for round 16. I will fix that final # tomorrow

suebee143 · September 2017

8/31 166.8 Happy to be back in the challenge after being away for a week. Business trip to NYC and I lost a pound!

I will attribute that to less alcohol, more water, and a LOT of walking!
9/01 168.1 Pretty sure I know what this is from. I want to say TOM, but not sure when that's happening due to hormones and heat waves in my body... ugh. I am hot, I am irritable, there is a heat wave coming this weekend... Yesterday I ate too much, did not track, and did not do any planned exercise. I did get my water in, though, and am drinking it like crazy today. It's a new day and so far, so good.
9/02 168.1 Went running on the treadmill this morning after a restless night of sleep. Went out to the coast to beat the heat! Avoided a lot of sweets from here to the beach and back. Stuck with my lemonade water (I have the little 5 calorie packets of Crystal Light lemonade water enhancers for when I am not motivated to drink my water and tempted to drink sweet icy things like Starbucks iced caramel macchiattos).

9/03 166.8

9/04 166.1 It was very hot here yesterday. Drank a lot of water just to avoid the headaches. I am up to 25 minutes of running at a time on the treadmill now.

Still tracking. So grateful for a day off of work today!
9/05 167.7 I took the day off yesterday and relaxed with the family. Which meant no exercise and some what I know were high sodium treats.
9/06 165.8 Would like for this to stick, so trying to stay on track today. Have had a busy work day. Totally need a run, but have Back to School Night tonight. Boo. I mean...I love my kids!

Good thing the gym is open until 9:30.
9/07 163.4 So I did stay on track yesterday... Right at my low calorie count, more hard proteins vs. soft (tuna, chicken breast) and not a lot of sugar. I ended up not exercising, because my son wanted to watch a TV show with me. So we did that. I was up three times last night, so maybe I am dehydrated today? Or maybe my exercising is paying off?

Replenishing with water today.
9/08 163.3 Got my run in last night, stayed on track with calories. Slept a little better. Thinking about those of you in the southeast. Stay safe!

9/09 163.3 Nice. Had a busy day at work again, but made good choices food-wise, and got my water in. See you in Round 16!

S15 SW - 225.8
S15 GW - 222.8

8/31 - 226.0 -starting off with a nice even number! Looking forward to pushing myself the next 10 days! Going to the gym today before going out of town for 3 days. I have my meals all planned and will get a chicken salad if going out for food. I will be drinking at least 5 bottles of water.

9/01 - 226.6 - expected it to go up as I did not make it to the gym and ate some salty bacon wrapped pork and perogies - I portioned it though! I am going out of town the next few days and won't be able to exercise so I will focus on trying to eat healthy and hopefully will come back weighing less than 226.6. I am bring my scale as well to weigh my food. I will look for a scale to weigh myself but if I don't find one I'll be back on the 5th!

9/02 - no scale -out of town
9/03 - no scale - out of town

9/04 -226.2!!!! Omg first time ever where i have gone on a trip and not come back weighing 5-10lbs more because I binged on everything! Im in shock!!! I ate out most meals but ordered either a wrap or salad. I treated myself to a traditional milkshake and a piece of chocolate cake to help with TOM cravings. I felt crappy after. Wow. Feeling super motivated to keep moving the numbers down on the scale rather than having to play catch up!!!!!

9/05 - 225.2! Lowest yet. Feeling great to be back into my routine. Went to the gym. Did groceries. Will hopefully get some meal prep done (If baby allows it) and maybe go for a little walk down our waterfront. I'm going to try to get down another 0.5-1lbs before the end of this challenge! I'm realizing my goal of losing 3lbs in 10 days may not be realistic/healthy so for next round I will bump it down to 2.

9/06 - 223.4 . Wow big jump!!! Probably due to a little dehydration from the gym (although I drank 125oz of water). My weight in for the Biggest Loser challenge tomorrow so hoping to maintain! I went to the gym yesterday and 4.5km walk. Heading to the gym now and picking up a few more groceries to make a few recipes I picked out. We are going on a mini honeymoon in 10 days so hoping to lose as much as I can before then and keep it off!

9/07 - 223.4 - so great that it stayed. Went to the gym yesterday and today and have eaten small amounts, no big meals. Today I am trying cauliflower pizza so that will be a treat! Healthy alternative
To real pizza! I lost 2.6lbs for my Biggest Loser Challenge this week. So so great after going away for 3 days. Currently prepping food for the week making salads, healthy snacks. Feeling in control! 2 more days to go... let's see if I can get into the 222's!

9/08 - 225.4 - back up as expected. I didn't eat much those 2 days so it makes sense it is back up. I also made some homemade pizza which i think accounted for the extra weight. Back on track today. I went for a 5km walk and will be doing baseball practice today for the tournament.

9/09 - 224.8 - well 1.0lb isn't too bad considering I went away for 3 days! I'll take it. Areas that I can improve in would be no more chocolate treats. I've been doing good with the gym. Maybe I could do a few more walks with the baby. Looking forward to the next round.

]I'm in! Now that summer weekend events should be over, I'm hoping to get my weekends more in line with my weekdays. Not that they've been terrible - just hard to track.

Round 15 SW: 229.0

Round 15 Goal: 227

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31- 229.0 - hopefully the 230s are gone for good. No exercise last night because I was exhausted. Stayed under calories though.
9/01- 229.8 - I hung out with a friend last night and binged. Hard. I'm going to attempt to put something in my diary, but I'm not entirely sure that I can account for all that I ate last night. I feel pretty gross this morning as a result. But - I'm still under 230 and today is a new day. Going to push water because there will undoubtedly much bloat from sodium.
9/02 - 228.4 - new low! Guess I didn't do too much damage after all!
9/03 - 228.4 - I'll always take staying put over the yo-yo.
9/04 - 227.2 - Wow! I really didn't exist extra that at all! We will see if it holds.
9/05 - 227.0 - I already hit my goal for this round! Wow. I'm glad to see that my efforts are finally producing some real results. I just want to make sure I don't start losing too fast!
9/06 - 227.0 - I'm good with hanging out here. Still amazed. Just going to keep doing what I'm doing since I know it works.
9/07 - 226.6 - Alright. Clearly my body is just shedding weight now. I'm OK with this. Keep waiting for the yo-yo.
9/08 - 227.2 - Moe's for dinner last night. It fit in my calories, but I have feeling there was a lot more sodium than I usually have; also have added some jogging intervals in my walk the last two days and am a bit sore, so there could be some water retention, too. Still good with this number though! My average has me at 226.6.
9/09 - 225.6! After a 19 hour work day a day 4 hours sleep. I'll take it but u don't expect it to hold. We shall see next round.

Here we go time to do it to it.
RD14 start 252.6 End 252.8

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31 253.6 I have been yoyoing between a couple of pounds lately time to make some progress. Having a long holiday weekend during this 10 days will be a big challenge.
9/01 253.9 I have this two pound back an forth thing going on. Holiday weekend is looming large gotta focus.
9/02 254.9
9/03 254.9
9/04 256.1 Yup holiday weekend, mexican, Applebees, last night grilled ribeyes, I own it, I must do WAYYYYY better, no excuses here.
9/05 256.1 Wow I really suck at this and I have lost 40 lbs in the last 18 mo. so what is going on, the last 17 days have been awful. I gotta get my crap together no excuses. My exercise is fine so quit feeding your face dude.
9/06 255.9
9/07 255.6
9/08 254.2 I ate better and had good steps about 8000, I have discovered that meeting my step goal(8000) is an essential part of my day. I'm down 40 lbs over 18 months thats my motivator. This is a marathon not a sprint Id rather get the weight off over 2-3 years and keep it off for life than lose it in six months and gain even more when it comes back on. I don't diet I eat in such a way that I can sustain it for life and it works.
9/09 254.2 hmmmmmmm, well I gotta fix this.

First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ... At a slow rate
End of R9: 170.2
End of R15 164.0

31/8 - 163.3 *Hit steps. Packed my lunch. Great dinner. Hit calorie goal!!
1/9 - 162.3 Hitting step goals (but not too much over) Packing lunch and having a healthy dinner. Planning on a hike around the lake on the weekend.
2/9 - 160.8. I signed up for my first 5K race. Cinnamon Bun Fun Run THEY GIVE YOU A CINNAMON BUN AFTER THE RACE!!! I have 3 months to get ready and I'm pretty excited. 12,000 steps. Calorie goals hit. Close to next goal

3/9 - 160.9. 17,651 Steps. Spent a lot of my calories on beverages. It was a hot day. Spent some time with my youngest 'back to school stuff'. Sundays goal is to hike around a lake with my oldest. Fit Family time!! I spent most of August hoovering around 165lbs. Now that I'm working on my weight it seems to be dropping at a faster rate. This should be interesting. Looking for that 5!!
4/9 - 160.3 So my kid wouldn't hike with me so I had to adjust my plan. Tried to hit 40,000 steps!! I didn't make it. 38,385 beating my best by over 1600. Maybe in a couple of weeks I can try again (SO is home this weekend) I'll have to start earlier and/or it'll have to get a little cooler out. I can see the 5's in the distance.
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.
7/9 - 160.1 Hmmmm SO arrives home late Friday. Can I see a 5 before that? Let's hope. All will go out the window once he's home, not too too much but he is a great cook and he does calculate my calories. I just don't think he realizes just how calorie dense olive oil is!! All I see are 5's.
8/9 - 159.4 ............. 5's

9/9 - 158.8. WOW. Not sure how this happened. It's not going to hold very long as it's a busy BBQ family over. Fall Fair, visit the grandkid kind of a weekend with SO who has been living on subpar camp food. Lol. But I'll take it and place a check mark here. Goal ✅

R13 SW: 189.8 - my lowest for R13 was 187.
R14 SW: 187 - lowest was 184.6
Goal for R15: I'm not sure what my starting weight for this round will be since I haven't weighed-in for a few days so I'll just say I'd like to lose 1.5 pounds

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31 - 185.6
9/01 - 185.6 Well at least I'm consistent. I'm surprised at this number because I feel super bloated and heavy. Plus, I didn't eat very good yesterday and didn't drink enough water. I totally expected to be 187 or so this morning. I'm excited to see the scale go down once I get rid of this water weight!
9/02 - 184! Umm what?! Well, happy birthday to me! I got on the scale totally thinking (in a snarky sarcastic voice)..."ok here we go..187"- insert eye roll too - my jaw hit the floor when I saw 184! I ate a calzone at 11:30 last night too so I was expecting a gain..but nope! And yes, I stepped back on that scale mutliple times to be sure! Hahahaha!! Let's hope it stays this way. I'm guessing not because we have some bday activities planned that involve food...so yeah.

9/03 - 185.6 I knew that I'd be higher today because we went to the a food festival for my bday and ate a lot! Good news is I got my 10,000 steps in yesterday...bad news is I feel so hung-over, not from alcohol but from the lack of water and all the carbs and sugar!
9/04 - 187.8 Ugh I gave myself way too much leeway with eating yesterday and didn't drink enough water. I wasn't even going to get on the scale. Lol! Here's to a better day! I'd love to see 184 again by the end of this challenge!
9/05 - 188.9 - Nooooo...definitely the wrong direction but it must be water weight because I certainly didn't eat very good over the weekend but I didn't eat enough to gain THAT much weight!
9/06 - 185.6 Much better! I drank a lot of water yesterday and stayed under my calorie and carb goal. This seems to be number of the week. 4 out of 7 days! Hahaha!
9/07 - 184 again! Whoohoo! Let's see if tomorrow will bring back 185.6. I'm hoping not!
9/08 - 184 - I was hoping to see a little loss but at least I didn't gain anything. I drank a lot of water yesterday, went over my protein goal, stayed under carbs but I didn't eat enough calories. I ate almost 1100 but with exercise I only net around 600. Not good but I didn't log until nighttime and definitely didn't want to eat much at that time because I knew it would likely throw the scale off. I'm trying to not eat after 8pm! Have a great day everyone! I enjoy reading all your comments ♡
9/09 - 183.4 - Yay!!! I'm so happy! I lost 2.2 pounds this week. Exceeded my goal by .7 pounds! Woohoo!

I will continue with my hydration and 5 minute daily stretching goal for this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31--225.9 Had a great weightlifting session yesterday and got my stretching in.
9/01--225.5 Ugh, forgot to stretch yesterday. I know the problem is because I haven't scheduled it into my day and then I just expect myself to remember to do it, but because it's not a habit yet I usually forget. So, I'm going to make sure that I stretch right after I get home from walking the dog in the morning.
9/02--225.9 Weightlifted and stretched yesterday so that was a success. I am going out for afternoon tea today so there will be additional calories today. Going out for a quick hike this morning to offset the extra calories.
9/03--225.9 Stretched yesterday. Could have drank some more water yesterday, but I'm assuming all of the tea that I drank added to my water intake.
9/04--226.4 Went out to friend's house for a BBQ yesterday. I estimated my calories and I think that I ate at or slightly over my calories, but I am definitely retaining water. Stretched yesterday.
9/05--227.2 Dehydrated. It's been so hot here lately and I have no AC, most people don't, and for this past weekend just the thought of exerting the energy to get up from the couch to get a glass of water was too much for me most of the time so I didn't drink as much water as I should have. Thankfully there is AC at work, so I've been getting my water in. Let's see what the scale does tomorrow. Stretched yesterday.
9/06--227.2 Definitely feeling better after drinking a lot more water. Forgot to stretch yesterday, ugh! Just waiting for the extra weekend water retention to release.
9/07--225.9 There it goes.
9/08--225.9 Holding steady. Stretched yesterday. I didn't drink as much water as I usually do and I can feel the difference this morning.
9/09--225.9 Holding steady. Stretched yesterday.

While there was no loss during this round, this round was another success. I stretched more this round, I'm still at my lowest, and my weight trend is still downward. On to the next round

nikki062181 · September 2017

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

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!

09/08: 176!!! Woot Woot!!!! I'm starting to get really excited. I think it's about how close the 175 is getting. I'm glad I'm still eating healthy even if this week has been hard with Mom in the hospital.

09/09: 174.4 OMGOSH! MIND BLOWN! I WASN'T EXPECTING THIS AT ALL DURING THIS ROUND. LOVE THE BIG WHOOSH!

9/01: 240.4 (Was my bff's bday and went a bit crazy with the birthday cake and ice cream on the 30th and 31st...September will be about incorporating more veggies and fruits and less refined sugars)
9/02: 238 (ok so my bffs bday weekend continued with going to a buffet last night which I didn't want to decline because it was her bday weekend so I just tried my hardest to go with healthier choices which I guess paid off. If you get the salad first it really fills you.)

So the past two days I've been sick. Like so sick with some sort of flu or something. And I think I'm going to have to get some Pedilyte or something because I'm getting really dehydrated even though I'm chugging water. I haven't exercised and I've been eating healthy and hydrating foods. If this keeps up thru the weekend you best believe I'm going to the doctor. On the plus side, it might be why I've lost weight...
9/01: 129.2
I have nothing to say. I can't give any credit to myself. It will probably come back when I feel better. Still feeling a icky.
9/02: 129.2
Still sick. Now I've decided to be more positive about the weight loss though. I am going to say that it will stay off when I get better, because I want it to!
9/03: 128.4
Yep. Still not doing anything except creeping ever so slowly to death.
9/04: 128.4
Woke up today feeling slightly better!!! Finally!!! Now I can start trying to eat healthy again...I've not been making calorie count most days and on the days that I have it's been with horrific foods. I have poor self control when I'm ill.
9/05: Ate breakfast before I remembered to weigh in.
9/06: 128.4
Omg I can't believe I've been in the 120s for a whole week. Saw my neurologist yesterday and he commented on my weight loss without me saying anything. He said I looked like a completely different person and so much younger.
9/07: 128.4
Surprisingly steady considering I met my mother for lunch yesterday AND I went out to dinner with my husband last night. Maybe this round is going to be one with a WHOOSH! after 3 weeks of plateauing.
9/08: 128.4
My new plateau? I'm totally ok with it. If anyone knew how long it's been since I weighed this much...hell, I don't even remember the last time I was in this range (before this week). Suddenly, though, I've gotten too small for my britches. Bahahaha.
9/09: 129.2
I ate super late last night so this is no surprise. But I can't believe I have been in the 120s this whole round!!!

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31 - 176.8 no change. PNE last night for the B 52 concert. No drinking. Yay me that was hard though. Everyone was drinking. Booze everywhere. I did have a few of my friends poutine fries with honey pork & pineapple though. Donuts and muffins in the kitchen today. Could not say no. :-( Not looking forward to tomorrows weigh in. Tired again today. 20 min walk at lunch completed.
9/01 - 176.6 Wow it went down instead of up. I'm surprised. PNE all day today. Tons of walking. So sore at the end of the day. Did not eat properly at all. Poutine fries and junk all day. No real meals except breakfast.
9/02 - 175 - Probably from not eating yesterday. Today I am taking my dad to bingo, and dinner so sitting is the theme today. He is in a wheelchair so I don't get to do a lot of exercising when I spend time with him. I love to visit with him though.
9/03 - 178.6 - Bad eating day yesterday. Onion rings, chinese food and Pizza and drinks.
9/04 - 178.4 - Another bad eating day yesterday and no real exercise. It was to hot the last couple of days. Need to get back on track here.
9/05 - 178.8 So hot here yesterday. I couldn't do anything. My legs and feet swell in the really hot heat. I tried to soak my feet but my foot soaker leaked everywhere. I need a new one now. :-( Eating wasn't as bad yesterday. I am at work today. There is air conditioning here and it's not as hot out. I did my walk at lunch today.
9/06 - 178.4 - That horrible bloating feeling that I have had since Sat is finally gone. I was looking into gyms last night. I can't really afford $60 a month so I found one that is $4.00 a week. It has bad hours 8 - 10pm but I don't care about going in the morning anyways. I just want to go to a class once a week and maybe an extra workout. 2 walks yesterday and stayed in my calories goal.
9/07 - 177.2 Finally starting to lose the weight from last Sat gain. Smoky here again today. So sore this morning from doing 107 squats yesterday. I feel sore all the time these days. I hate it. I think I need a new bed now.
9/08-177.4
9/09-177.6 not a good round.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | Round 15
