Fine on calories, no added sugar, did some walking. I'm trying to talk myself into a short jog still tonight. Tried quinoa pizza crust for the first time, I'll definitely have it regularly. It's easier to make and less messy than traditional flour or cauliflower crust (which I only tried once but it was a pain to rice and drain the cauliflower).
10/1: 172.5 lbs
Good on calories, water, no added sugar but I made a small dessert with dates. Led a two-hour nature walk at work, which was fun.

End Goal for this round: 180
UWG: 120-130
Everyday Goals:
1. Exercise (at least 30mins) -
2. Log ALL my intake (would be good if it stays less than MFP's calories goal, but if not, then not more than 200cal excess) -
3. Don't overeat carbs -
4. Hit protein goals -
5. At least 2.5L of water -
6. No sodas/candies/other sugary treats -
7. No night snacking -
09/30 – 182.8 – This is my lowest recorded weight for the past 4 years! I couldn’t believe it! Finally, I’m back to this point! Slowly but surely is the way indeed, and even if I stumble along the way, what’s important is to get up and continue, never giving up or losing hope. Stay focused. Sometimes I’ll indulge and commit mistakes, feel guilty, but will still move on. Use the lessons learned and enjoy the journey to the healthier me.

We all indulge from time to time. If we gave up everything we loved, we'd just quit on our journey. We shouldn't make our goals impossible. They need to be realistic and attainable.
True. Learned and accepted this fact the hard way. Before, I almost always nag myself to death whenever I give in or indulge. Then become depressed or overly anxious or extremely guilty. Now, I made peace with that and loosened up a bit. I still prioritize picking healthier choices but I also have some stuff as long as I REALLY want it and I can fit it to my calorie budget (ehem pastries). Or ask myself if maybe I can postpone the 'treat' for another time. It's about balance and compromise.
Exactly! I've also been finding low carb or sugar free desserts, so that way I feel like I'm still having a great but healthier.6 -

Just started reading Alan Carrs easyway weight loss for women book... let's see what happens to my numbers!6 -
I HAVE the power and determination to do this.
to all the Newbies, and Hi to those returning for another Round. This has got me back on track big time!
Observations, and Previous RoundsMany events along the way will scupper our best intentions, but they merely delay the achievement of our goals. Life is for living, and one must learn patience. It takes many years to put on excess weight, so It follows that it takes much time to remove, but it is coming off, bit by stubborn bit! Stick with it! The game continues!SW: 227; Lowest weight 18 Aug 2017: 159.2; Final goal weight: 147
A lot of people get upset by apparent weight gain when they have been working their butts off. Body weight fluctuates, both up, and down, 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 a gain due to water retention, unless you drink extra fluids to flush it out.
If you are making positive lifestyle changes it will lead to increased health and fitness.
Slow and steady leads to sustainable weight loss.
But remember to live a little along the way!

9/29 - 139.0
9/30 - 138.8 -
10/1 - 139.2 - I made banana bread last night, it was so delicious I had 3 pieces and they weren't small! Today I did a short walk but knee hurt after a while. Physio tomorrow so I will ask exactly how much I can put my knee through.
10/2 - 138.8 - I made some sensible choices today. I'm hoping this trend continues

10 Day Goal: I know weight loss is going to be difficult without an oven, so I will be focusing mainly on fitness while trying to stay as close to my calorie goal as possible. Hoping to have 10 miles complete by the end of the 10 days and possibly get down to 152.
Day/Weight/Comment
9/30 152.68 We have hot water! Lots of housecleaning today but no walk. We are at a friend's house for dinner tomorrow, so I have no control on what is being made. I really want to get exercise in just in case it is something high in calories.
10/1 152.46 Running behind on checking in. I managed 1.3 miles walking and remained under calories eating with friends, including some wine.

ROUND 18 - my round 5
Round 4 was rough. It included my 30th birthday and many celebrations and lots of food for it. I ended it at 162 which is 0.5 above where I ended last round. So, let's see what this round does. I WILL do more exercise this round.
9/30 162.1 well yesterday was off the rails so I'm not supremely surprised...a 0.1 lb gain is basically just a normal fluctuation - going to do better. Not try -DO
10/1 161.0 - not sure what I did but wahoo!! Actually if I had to pinpoint it - not a lot of food before bed and purposeful exercise and barely any (if any) snacking. MUST KEEP THIS UP!!
10/2 161.0 - gotta keep this going in the right direction - gotta work out today after work no excuses

9/30: 163.8 Feeling awesome this morning. Down even with homemade pizza last night and some candy corn. Made it fit so no going over
Going to my in laws later and overnight so this will be hard. So. Much. Junkfood in their house!
10/1: 163.0 Yowza! I was not expecting that. I really think I'm still in the first 2 week quick drop I tend to do. I expect things will start to slow down this week. We didn't go to the in laws overnight so less temptation. We are going for the day today but I'm feeling confident!
10/2: 161.2 This really doesn't make sense. Too much. Scale was not off for my husband and batteries are new. I ate healthy but close to maintenence. My only thought is my sluggish digestive track got moving yesterday. TMI to share any more than that9 -

10/1: 130
I literally have no clue what happened. It's not my TOM. I guess it's just a random fluctuation. Didn't eat super well yesterday because I got some bad story reviews (self medicating I guess). Maybe that plus stress was it.
10/2: 128.6
Stayed within calorie count and ate healthier, which definitely helped. Still a little stressed but it will get better. Started writing again today even though I didn't want to.
