Seventh round with this glorious group of supportive peeps!
Been doing amazingly well. Taking note of daily fluctuations and watching the 10-day averages consistently decrease has really helped! (Decreases I might have otherwise missed by weighing weekly or irregularly.)
My recommendations for newbies: Keep your focus on the average over the 10 days. Don't let the daily fluctuations get you down. Instead, notice that everyone's weights go up and down and it can take a few days to see the results of good/bad behavior. Stay the course, gain from other's experiences, and ask for support when you need it!
WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Me too! 13.2 lbs less than a year ago today, actually. Yay us!
I noticed that I am approaching my "danger zone" - time of year and/or weight where I historically stop tracking and gradually start gaining. NOT THIS TIME! I will continue to log. I WILL NOT defeat me! I got this.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10: 152.8
/I was so happy with my end result from the last round. Even though this is an uptick, I hope to see the downward trend soon! Drank 64oz (including 12oz coffee...). Stayed within calories. Didn't go to the gym today.
10/11: 153.0
/Not liking this upward trend. I'm doing everything right, so I am going to assume it's not actual weight gain. Ate within calories, drank 64+ oz of fluids, walked over 13,000 steps. Did not get to the gym. And will not be able to go tomorrow as I have to work late. The next two days are when calories might be harder to control (work provides food on late nights and I have Friday evening plans with drinking and eating). Fingers crossed for a drop tomorrow!

It's different for men and women, basic rule is 500cal for girls and 600cal for boys on fast days. And then it's up to you how to distribute the calories.

2. Keep hydrated (water/unsweet tea)

09/10- Happy Canadian thanksgiving weekend! Two main meals today, went a little under hydrated. Had a long dog walk, but it made me miss yoga.

11/10- 158.5 worked through lunch but ate a little. Work survey and a huge dog walk. Under protein macro. Still thirsty.

Feeling good, like the changes I've made are sustainable, but I'm nearing my typical low. I've been here probably 5 times (more?) in the last 25 years without ever getting to my goal weight, then gaining back. At this size, I'm still definitely overweight but I'm starting to like how I look and that can cause me to get overconfident and stop worrying about it. I've really got to keep my mindset going. I like the healthy food I'm eating, I'm not deprived, I like being active, I can keep doing this. Anyway, it's early but I'm on track for no added sugar today, good on water and calories, took a nice walk.
10/11 170.5
Three days in a row, this number still makes me happy. Good on water, calories, a little exercise, no added sugar. Looking back at my diary, I haven't gone over 1510 calories in 30 days.

Hi Joan - Your avatar caught my eye. I'm here every day cause it is easy to drop my weight number in. (Sometimes I don't have the mental energy for JFT thread.) Everyone is welcome.
Nice to see you here! I agree-- this is easy, so thought it would help me a lot, I usually weigh everyday anyhow. I usually post on thr JFT post in the evening-- just not enough time during the day,,3 -

@joan6630 Lovely to see you here. Jump right in.
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!
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!

Progressing again though I am still hungry all the time this week. Yesterday had an extra smoothie and some ice cream that I wasn't planning on. I think eating more carbs and eating too early in the morning is affecting my cravings. May try delaying "breakfast" and eating fewer carbs today.
