Round 18 SW: 173
Round 19 SW: 170.5

10/10: 170.5
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.

10/12: 169.5 squeee! (What'll happen tomorrow? Oh, the suspense.)
When I got home my BF left me a big serving of pasta. He makes the sauce, doesn't put sugar or salt in it but he glugs in the olive oil with abandon, bless his Italian mama. I added veggies but should have eaten a bit less. I'm under calories for the day, not enough protein, lots of carbs and fat. Fine on water, no added sugar, just light walking for exercise today.

@40lbslighter - That's great!! I'm the same as you! This time of year is REALLY hard for me. I get an 'oh just forget it' attitude and gain weight. Plus I seem to love to sabotage myself. But yes we can do this!! My goal is to NOT gain, and hopefully lose about 10lbs more by Christmas.

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!
10/12: 153.0

/Ahhh, still no dip. Managed to eat within calories today. Did not get in 64 oz of fluids and no gym. I've felt really bloated lately.

R18 SW- 153.12

Current weight- 152.68
10 Day Goal: I would love to get to 150.XX It might be a bit much, but I will work hard to get there. I would also like to continue increasing my exercise. I'm hoping to average a mile a day.
Day/Weight/Comment
10/10- 152.68 Seeing this number again today is depressing. My 7 day chart is an upward trend and honestly there is no reason. I weigh and chart everything I eat and am always under calories. Just sucks. Got a mile in yesterday and am hoping to get another in today.
10/11- 152.24 I've been in bed most of the day. Think we are on round 2 of being sick. DS already started last night with a horrible hacking cough and I'm exhausted and achy. We almost had takeout for dinner, but I sucked it up and made dinner instead.

Day 2 of no exercise. Determined tomorrow to get at least a mile in.
10/12- 151.8 Woke up feeling awful today. Keeping hydrated and trying to rest between coughing fits.

TerriRichardson112 · October 2017

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 Rounds

Many 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.

Don't beat yourself up over a temporary gain. Trust the process and stick with the programme.
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!

Today's motto: Stay strong coming into the weekend! - I've got a friend coming to visit and have planned in lots of walking and hiking but need to make sure I stay focused with the food and water.

SW - 90kg
CW - 67.7kg
GW - 60kg

Goals: Move/exercise each day + drink more water + keeping focused on the weekend. Hoping to see 66.2kg by the end of the challenge.

10/10 - 66.9kg First strength session back at the gym in 3 months last night. Hungry all day today!!
10/11 - 66.7kg 30 minute cross country jog last night, packed extra low cal snacks for work, still focusing on water intake.
10/12 - 66.7kg - I swear the scale flashed 66.4kg for a second haha. Went for a long jog/walk last night, stayed within my calories yesterday and prepped my food today. Feeling like I'm really getting into the swing of things!
10/13 - 66.4kg - I KNEW IT! Haha didn't want to get too excited yesterday but the number on the scale continues to go down. Good thing too, I'm bloody hungry adjusting to lower calories at the moment! No exercise yesterday because of the DOMS and coming into a heavy lifting session tonight. Wooooo Friday fun!

10/11: 183.8 - a whoosh! Or dehydrated? Very thirsty today so won't get too excited about this number. Would be good to have it there at the end of the round, though.

10/12: 185.0 - as expected. Going to do extra exercise today.

10/13: 186.2 - so I did the extra exercise, 15000 steps and I was under 1500 calories! I'm guessing too much sodium, I hope. (stir-fry with too much soy sauce). Need to drink lots of water today!

ROUND 19 - MY ROUND 6

I have not had a lot of success. Something is always "happening" and it gets distracting. I tracked honestly today (10/9) and already am at 1700 calories at 6:15 pm!! Going to try to be honest and hope that helps me make better choices. I want to be below 159.9 for my friends wedding that I'm in on October 27.

10/9 162.3 - a bit over where I was at the beginning of last round - I can't keep myself together...but I do believe my "average" of weights went down last round...

I'M BACK! I have lost 31 lbs so far, and I'm also really excited to see the 6 digit come into play sometime soon. I'm 171 lbs today.

BRING IT ON!

Start Weight: 202
Goal Weight this Round: 170
Ultimate Goal Weight: 125

10/10: Welp...I am at 172 today. I don't know why. I ate well. Stayed under calories actually. Walked quite a bit. Maybe it was due to water retention because I biked 6 miles. Idk. Hmmm....
10/11: I'm still at 172. I know I went over on my sodium, which is something I rarely ever do because I'm not a big salt person. I'll lose this pound eventually. I'm still at a 30 lb loss and am happy about that.

10/12: Well, the number 172 is really liking me. I also noticed a trend. One round I barely lose anything and usually do not reach my goal. The next round, I meet my goal and the last rounds goal. Interesting.
10/13: It's Friday the 13th, and that's so creepy! Also, I'm at 171.8. I have been incredibly hungry this week. I've been eating my calories and almost all the extra calories you get from exercise. Maybe that's why there isn't a loss yet. Oh well, I'm still happy and not going to stress.

Day/Weight/Comment

10/10: 162.4 Frustrated that I am up. I was at my in laws all weekend. Mostly estimating calories although I think I did a good job and got a workout in. Also TOM started, hoping to see it move back down quickly. Will be doing w2d1 of c25k today.

10/11: 161.0 Hoping this number sticks around!

10/12: 159.0 Up at 3:30 AM with an upset stomach. Tired and likely dehydrated. Expecting it will be a bit before I see this number for real.

10/13: 160.2 Liking this number. Yesterday's really doesn't count. Ate a little higher yesterday but was still within range given exercise calories.

Losing weight doesn't seem to be working, so I'm going to concentrate on getting taller!

SW, 212 - Loss so far 15.5lbs.

R08, Avg weight - 203.4 Total Down 8.4lbs

R17, Avg weight - 196.3 Total down 15.7lbs
R18, Avg weight - 196.5 ^^^ gone up

R19 SW - 198.2

My goal for R18 R19 is for my avg weight to be under 14 stone (196 lbs)

UGW 140

09/10 - 198.2 - I had a rough R18, my weight went up, I am still waiting on a physio appointment (which is likely to be next year) and I am in a lot of pain almost constantly, exercising is very difficult for me at the moment, walking and upper body strength / stretch is all I can manage, this 10 days I am cutting a further 200 calories from my daily goal to compensate for the lack of movement.

10/10 - 198 - under calories drank water
11/10 - 196 - under calories drank water
12/10 - 196 - way under cals drank water
