Ultimate goal - 135 & more muscle
Weight 2/21/15 - 218.2
Goal for #15 (my first round) - 150
Goal for 2018 - 135
8/31 - 151.8
9/1 - 151 Got my walk and stretching in.
9/2 - 150.8
Forest fires in the mountains have laid a thick blanket of smoke over us, and the temp is going to the high 90s-100 today through Tues., so I won't be walking outdoors. Stretching & weights, and maybe some jumping jacks.
9/3 - 150.8
Went out to eat yesterday, so I'm not surprised - just happy I didn't gain water weight. The smoke is terrible today, so no outdoor acidity, and I don't plan to do anything other than stretching indoors - we don't have ac and can smell smoke even with the windows closed.
9/4 - 151
Who knows?
9/5 - 152.2
This isn't fat - I went on a bit of a binge last night, so more sodium (and food) than usual. I'll not binge today :-)
9/6 - 152
A bit discouraging, but considering that our terrible air quality the past week (ranging from "Unhealthy" to "Hazardous") has kept me from my normal 60-120 minutes of walking every day, I guess holding steady isn't a bad thing. I'm averaging 1750 calories/day and really don't want to go much lower (and get hangry!), so I'll just ride it out. We may get a little rain this afternoon, which may settle some of the smoke for a while. We need a few days of rain to put out the fires. So sad for Oregon - sort of puts a few ounces or pounds in perspective.
9/7 - 151.8
Full circle! The air is a bit better today and I hope to get a little walking in. I've gone over my calorie goal several times this week - all good, healthful food, but a bit more than I intended. Still, I think that once the air clears and I get back to regular walking, I should lose. Not gaining is a good thing!
9/8 - 151.8
The smoke is coming back, but I got a nice 5-miles walk in this morning while the air was clear from last night's rain. Interested to see that my weight has come back down despite my calories being ~100 higher that planned per day. I write mysteries, but those plot lines pale compared to the mysteries of losing weight!
9/9 - 151.2
Well, staying level in a week of way less exercise than normal due to poor air quality is a win, I think. I did get a 40 min walk in this morning, and plan to get out again this afternoon. Onward.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/31 - 194.4 I ate very late last night and the night before the 192.7 weight I had eaten almost no dinner. Timing of meals impacts the morning weigh in, but not enough to make me go hungry. I had a nice chuck roast that came out of the rotisserie right as I walked in the door at 9:15. Medium rare, just a little crispy on the edges, fresh sliced tomatoes and a little mashed potatoes on the side. Yum. And still in calorie limit for the day.
9/01 - 193.6 Busy day yesterday. Did not get to exercise. Worked until 11:00. (Usually I am a nine to fiver-er.) This may be the food description round for me, because today I want to wax eloquent about Popeye's Fried Chicken, which I have found I can eat in moderation. I split a breast between lunch and dinner, and I still have a chicken wing for my lunch today. Surprised the sodium in the side and biscuit did not send me up, but I was very diligent on a high water intake. Actually I do not have to write about fried chicken because someone already has: Ode to Fried Chicken
9/02 - 193.6 I am surprised by this. I expected to be up a little. I'm not complaining mind you. Quite a disappointing day yesterday as there was nothing magnificent to eat. Leftovers and snacking. Not very good fodder for a food description themed round.
9/03 - 193.6 Worked all day yesterday. I'm in the office now. I thought this was supposed to be a three day weekend for us in the USA. I did have a yummy Greek salad yesterday and healthy snacks of tasty little cherry tomatoes and watermelon chunks. When I went home I roasted up some chicken thighs with cumin, cayenne and cilantro, sides of corn and broccoli. Food is good. If today goes as planned I will have something for you tomorrow.
9/04 - 193.6 Four days in a row same weight. I know my scale will not change the weight read out if the variance is just a little. I wonder how long I can keep this going? Often I get my husband to step on the scale, just so it will give me a fresh reading as his weight is higher and 'resets' it. In delicious food news, last night I went home from another weekend day working in the office
and cooked up a lovely prime rib. Tried a new method. Roasted it at 500 degrees for 5 minutes time the weight, then left it in the oven for two hours. Do not touch the oven door; leave it closed. It worked. I had a perfect medium rare rib roast. That will be a large part of dinner most of the next week as it is just DH and I.
9/05 - 193.8 Horrible day yesterday. No magnificent foods at all. Spent the day helping my daughter clean her apartment, change rooms and move in a new roommate, then I went to the office and worked. Not only did I not have a three day weekend, I did not have a weekend at all. (Whine!) Considering that both my meals came from drive thrus, I will not complain about my scale weight today. We are preparing to be prepared for Miss Irma if she decides to stick on her path and visit us. Hope you all have a good day.
9/06 - 193.1 Yesterday was not a bad day considering how much time I spent on storm prep. Got a run in last night at 9. Breakfast was a wonderful yogurt parfait with berries and granola, had a half banana mid morning, and lunch was a salad with lots of veggies, turkey and asiago cheese. Yum. Had a sliver of Sunday's rib roast for dinner with some nuts. Weird food combo, but tasty.
9/07 - 194.2 If I still had an official TOM I'd blame it on that. Oh well, it takes a little time to recover from bad behavior. Had to travel about an hour away to storm prep an in-laws house last night so was to bed late with no proper dinner. Great repeat of breakfast and lunch from the day before tho. Waiting too see what IRMA brings to the middle of Florida.
9/08 - 194.7 It was my daughters 23rd birthday and we went to join her for a late dinner. I stayed within my calories, but restaurant food.... I could taste the saltiness difference. I just don't use it that much at home. (But I feel like I am salting things like crazy. Must be the awareness factor. ) I will probably sweat it out today moving everything loose outside to a secure location so it does not get picked up by Irma and shared with a neighbor's window, cow, car, etc. See you tomorrow! (Sunday too - now Monday that's a big wait and see if we have power....)
9/09 - 195.8 Ugh. Not the way I wanted to end this round. No time to analyse my last day. It is what it is. I got hurricane prep I'm doing. Stay safe my friends.

R14 average - 141.4
R15 goal - Knee surgery on the 4th. Try not to go above 142.
8/31 - 139.6 - I haven't been below 140 for months. Great if it's a whoosh but most likely a bit of dehydration as I didn't drink much water yesterday. Time will tell....

LW 165.6, HW 167.2, AVG 166.2
Day/Weight/Comment
8/31: 165.8 Normal fluctuation. Did not want to weigh today - late night snack attack. Somehow thought a dinner of carrots and hummus would be enough. Wrong! Lesson learned.
9/01: 165.2 New 2-year low! Will not overdo it this holiday weekend!
9/02: 164.6 Nice! 10-day average is now under 166. Yay!
9/03: 164.4 Note to self: This is NOT a free pass to overindulge at tomorrow's BBQ.
Me.
9/04: 163.6 Fourth consecutive day of loss. Really liking this trend! Been doing less cardio and more strength exercises.
9/05: 163.8 Normal fluctuation. Still under goal for this round and seventh day out of the 166's. Yay!
9/06: 164.2 Ignoring this one as I weighed much earlier than usual. Plus only got a couple hours of sleep so my little organs didn't get time to do their jobs. Let's see what tomorrow brings!
9/07: 164.0 Under round goal weight, so I'll take it. 10-day average is now under 165. Yay!
9/08: 164.4 Day 7 out of 165s. Woot-woot! Slightly disappointed the 163s didn't stick around for my Friday team challenge weigh-in, but glad to have seen them this week nonetheless.
9/09 164.0 Ggggggoooaaaalllll!
Round 15: SW 165.6, EW 164.0 (-1.6 lb),
LW 163.6, HW 165.2, AVG 164.4
Wins:
Stayed under starting weight the entire round.

9/08 158 Not a surprise. DH wasn't feeling well and when finally something sounded good, it was pizza at Cicis's. I had a large salad with Blue Cheese dressing and one piece of veggie flatbread with the topping from a second piece added. I also had my first diet soda in a week and then because of other commitments, didn't get enough water in!
9/09 156 I thought I posted earlier but don't see it. I got up late this morning and had to get to a meeting, then ran some errands and didn't get home (or anything to eat) and got home around 2:30. I'm thrilled to be down 2# this round. I haven't been this low since 2013! See you next round!
I want to tell you all how much I am enjoying this group and the support. Y'all are awesome!

Woohoo! Goal reached - 4lb loss
First round with you guys... i found it really helpful logging everyday - even if I didn't post online. I think focussing on a smaller goal helped too - so thanks.
Lots of birthday nights out this past two weeks so I'm hoping to be able to keep the weight off in the next round.
I joined a boot camp in august but didn't change my diet so that's my goal for the next 10 days.
What happens now? Do we keep logging here or is there a new group set up?3 -

Hello! Congratulations on your loss (my, my, that just sounded weird...
)
There's a new thread for Round 16. Check it out!
(sorry, can't provide the link, dunno how to do it via phone)

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.
8/9/2017: 161.8 Goals ✅ Yay! Holding steady and under goal for this round. Now to just stay there!
9/9/2017: 161.6 Goals ✅ Surprised at this as my hydration yesterday was patchy.
Round 15: (Target: 162) Highest, 163.8; lowest, 161; Mean, 161.8 It's slow, but I am very happy with the downward trend.
Don't worry!
Be Happy!!!

R14 SW-160.38
Current weight-158.4
10 Day Goal: Want to get into 157's.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/31- 158.4 Still holding steady here. I am beyond sick right now, with no actual care what I eat.
9/01- 158.14 This is probably from being sick not actual loss.
9/02- 157.3 Again due to illness not actual loss.
9/03- 156.86 Feeling better today, but still a bit weak. I expect to see a rise in my weight over the next few days now that I'll be eating regularly.
9/04- 157.08 I expected some gain, so I'm fine with this. Hopefully it won't go up much more. I've been super busy but sticking to my calories.
9/05- 156.42 I wasn't expecting this number and think it might just be a fluke. lol Today was a good day for me. I managed to walk a mile, which I haven't done in a very long time.
9/06- 156.86 I was hungry all day today, but I managed to limit my snacks. Another mile complete.
9/07-156.86 So I had a cry today when I realized everyone got a yummy Starbucks except me. Then husband and I got into an argument because I don't want to go out to eat. I see no point in going to a restaurant when I can't order what I actually want to eat. So mentally not having a great day. Maintaining calories.
9/08- 155.76 After yesterday, I decided I needed a cheat day, or rather meal. The food was decadent and worth any small setback that may come because of it. I guesstimate I went over my calories by about 250. (probably around maintenance) Tomorrow I'm back on track determined to lose this weight.
9/09- 155.98 (Forgot to actually post this yesterday) Tiny fluctuation here, but happy with my 10 day loss.

9/04 141.4 no exercise, over by almost 700 calories. And I was doing so well! I have been feeling tired/sick all weekend. No energy to exercise, and not feeling like watching what I eat. Lots of snacking! I'll be back on track by tomorrow.
9/05 140.1 30 min elliptical and just under calorie goal (I'll be glad to end this round where I started)

9/09
I just quit this challenge! I have not done that before. I weigh 143.3 this morning (Sunday)! I became stressed out over an issue with my son and decided I needed a break from logging, weighing, and watching calories. So, I ate whatever I wanted and stopped tracking. Well that was not very helpful to myself. Last night, my stomach hurt and I realized that this is not how I want to feel. I did not eat completely ridiculous amounts of food, but I definitely ate too much, and ate things I haven't in a long time (french fries at Five Guys, carrot cake from the bakery). Well, moving onward I guess. Time to get back on track.4 -

8/31- 203.2
9/1 : 204.9 - not sure what this is, I've had great day. Today was my rest day after working out 5 days in a row. Did 30 flights of stairs and walked for about 50 mins during my down time at work. Logged my food, was under my calorie goal but went over in protein by 26g. Idk if that matters lol. Measured at about 9pm
9/2-204.3-
9/3-201.8 - took this measurement this AM after my workout. Hoping to hit my water goal today, hoping this number sticks!
9/4 - overslept, so couldn't make the gym this am. But was under my calorie goal, and hit my water goal.
9/5 - 200.6 would be happy to see this number again tomorrow. This was at 7 am after working out.
9/6- 200.0 post workout at 12pm. I've upped my water this week, so I'm happy to see the water weight go away. Did have alcohol and potato chips yesterday. Logged it, was still under calories but way over on sugar and sodium. Will try to hit 65 ounces of water today and see what the scale does. More importantly, 200 is my mini goal #1 --> new workout shoes today! yay
9/7 - 199.5 9am after an intense sweat session, so sure a lot of this is water weight. I need to be sure to rehydrate today, i think i had maybe half of my water goal yesterday. and just sweated out what I had left. lets see what tomorrow brings!
9/8- 200.0 happy with this number
9/9 : didnt weigh in yesterday. was a rest day so didnt work out either. got some bad news, drank my problems away. expecting to see a huge jump tomorrow
Just wanted to complete this round. Hadn't been on in a couple of days but wanted to post an update! Looking forward to next round and getting back on track!

Please count me in! Glad to see this group as I am trying to lose weight gained after a sprained ankle and need some accountability. This will be my first time doing this. I have a question--do we post our weight at the beginning of each day?

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.
9/08 61.4
9/09 62.4 - water retention before my period. Quite annoying.
-- average 61.2. Not so bad, but the end I kept a lot of water as my period is closing in.

I knew I could find you guys!!!! I had to sort of start over, and want to do a half marathon and the less I weigh, the better I will do, and my knees will thank me.

@AR10at50 Round 16 is on another thread. Search Just Give Me 10 Days Round 16. 2

Oops! Wrong thread! I will repost.
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]

R13 and 14 was on holiday and not using my own scale so discounting these weights.

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.
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!
4/9/2017: 163.4 Goals ✅ Small drop. Back on track. Just a couple of slack days have consequences.
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.
8/9/2017: 161.8 Goals ✅ Yay! Holding steady and under goal for this round. Now to just stay there!
9/9/2017: 161.6 Goals ✅ Surprised at this as my hydration yesterday was patchy.
Round 15: (Target: 162) Highest, 163.8; lowest, 161; Mean, 161.8 It's slow, but I am very happy with the downward trend.
Round 16: My Round 9
Target weight: 160
9/9/2017: 161.6
10/9/2017: 161.2 Goals ✅ Normal fluctuations.
11/9/2017: 160.4 Goals ✅ Mini whoosh?
Don't worry! Be Happy!!!
