Also that was a lot of exercise yesterday so you may be carrying extra water.
I can't use almond stuff due to allergies. Yes, I usually bike one more mile, but I wasn't feeling well. Just doing the 5 was hard enough.3 -
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.
10/14: I met my calorie goal yesterday. Shocking! I'm at 171 lbs today. So, I am back to where I started. Let's see if it sticks around this time.
10/15: So, I'm back to 172. This number must really like me. I walked a lot yesterday since I took my youngest son to a pumpkin patch. I also biked 5 miles.
10/16 172 again.

All right! Here we go for another round! Will it be good? Will it be bad? Wo o o o! Only the shadow knows for sure!
10/11: 217
Got a call yesterday to come in for the second part of my sleep study! Made sure to ask for a scale this morning before taking a shower; weighed 217. Been riding most of the day; but I resisted stopping for fast food! Hope this number sticks around this time! If I say "pretty please" will you stay?
10/12: 219
Well, it is evident that saying 'pretty please' did not work . That Turkey chili I made was low on calories and fat but high on sodium! Watching sodium intake is crucial to weight loss for me! Will do better today; already pre planned my meals for today! Now, I just need to drink enough water to flush away all this salt!
10/13: 217.8
Drank lots of water yesterday; was way under on sodium! Had all my meals planned for today then my granddaughter invited me to lunch! Oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men so often go astray!
10/14: 217.9
I like this number! Went to lunch yesterday with 2 of my granddaughters and my daughter at Golden Corral. Loaded up on vegetables and baked fish! Couldn't resist the desserts though! Had very small piece of Carrot cake and bread pudding! Didn't get in hardly any water, but only ate 3 waffle cookies (69 cal.) for the rest of the day! Today is my great grandson's birthday, so I expect I won't have the good choices I had yesterday!
10/15: 220.2
Too much sodium not enough water!
10/16: 218.1
Surprise! Made homemade mac n cheese yesterday, and ate too much! Did get in a little more water. Had a doctor appt. this morning, and my water is always slack when I'm away from home. Alarm didn't go off this morning, so I missed my exercise! May work something in tomorrow!5 -
SW - 307.2 lbs
CW - 307.2 (10/10)
GW - 155 lbs
Goals: Exercise every day, drink more water, limit to one coffee per day. Eat more veggies and start meal prepping! Make sure I
log my food and exercise into MFP. Good luck everyone!!
10/10 - 305.4 Doing a Walk Away the Pounds dvd today after work. My new mantra...”I Can Do 10 Days”
10/11 - 305 Day was great until pool league. Couple drinks and an appy. Still went down though.
10/12 - 303.6 Considering it was a friends Bday yesterday I’m very happy with this number. Even though I splurged at night my day was eight on track and I saved some calories for dinner time.
10/13 - 303.2 Small victory today but a victory just the same.
10/14 - 302.8 pretty happy with his considering I ate potato skins for dinner!! Definitely helps keeping track of calories left and eating less through the day when you know you are going out!!
10/15 - 302.6 Another small victory but I’m happy the scale hasn’t moved up?
10/16 - 302.8 Up a tiny bit and I’m ok with that as long as the scale goes down tmo. 3 days left and I’d like to be down at least 5lbs...it’s doable for sure!!

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!!!

2. Go to the gym at least 5 times x
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.
10/13: 152.0/Weighed myself three different times today and got 152.6, 152 and 151.4. Recording the middle ground here. I think I'll have an uptick again tomorrow due to food choices today...three glasses of wine, half a burger and sweet potatoes fries and half a chicken and rice dish at an Ethiopian restaurant. Did not get in 64oz of fluids or go to the gym. Walked 10,000+ steps. Totally guesstimated the restaurant calories, so may be 150 over calories or more...
10/14: 151.0/Nice to see this number! We'll see if it lasts. Still haven't gone to the gym and did not drink enough water. Maybe I'll make it to the gym before the day is over, but unlikely. Made healthier pumpkin donuts and oatmeal cookies. And of course ate a bunch. Will definitely eat under calories today but not a lot of protein.
10/15: 150.6/The downward continues! I finally got some exercise in! I ran for 3.5 miles (the longest I've ever run) outside. Not the gym, but it counts! I have to take advantage of the outdoors while I can, especially because I hate running on a treadmill. Did not drink 64oz (it's really hard!). Stayed within calories today. Made a delicious onion, mushroom and beef stir fry for dinner.
10/16: 150.8/Not unhappy about this. Normal fluctuation. Hopefully back down tomorrow. I had to stay late at work unexpectedly so I didn't make it to the gym. Ate just a tad over calories today but got some more water in than I have in previous days!

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.
10/13: 169.0
Walked a bit, fine on water, fine on calories, almost no veggies today, no added sugar.
10/14: 169.0
Fine on calories, but high in sodium (phooey, might see a bump tomorrow). Lots of veggies. OK on water. Some exercise. No added sugar. Had to be up extra early today and again tomorrow. Today we had a park cleanup, tomorrow I'm leading an early nature walk. I'm looking forward to it but I should go to sleep soon.
10/15: 170.0
Worked a very long day (11hrs) but I started with a birding walk at dawn so it was a nice day overall, especially considering tomorrow's my day off. Hardly drank any water til early evening, I'm trying to finish another 500ml. Not on purpose, but was not in my routine today and ate very low in calories. No added sugar, in spite of lots of opportunity for it.
10/16: 168.5
No exercise today. It's my day off and except for an errand and going out to eat I didn't move. I didn't hate it. Fine on calories but too much sodium. Good on water, no added sugar.

Surprised I even lost a few ounces because yesterday we had a family birthday. Spent most of the day in the car or sitting watching football. But did play a few games of ping pong, so maybe that helped
I did try to get in my steps and reached 12k.

Round 19 (Round 6 for me)
Hello everyone! This is the perfect round for me as it ends on a very important goal day for me!!!! Round 5 was a bust (travelling, TOM, unreliable scale etc.) so I'm not putting in the specs here. I w not know my real weight until I arrive home on the 15th. But I'm gonna try my darnedest to be really good until then!!!

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.
10/13-152.02 Not overly concerning myself with calories. Over by 24. Feeling horrible.
10/14-153.34 I've been eating a lot of soup/broth, so this might be due to sodium. Not worried as it is not my normal diet. I'm in bed, running fever.
10/15-151.58 The coughing exercise seems to have paid off. (eyeroll) Feeling a bit better today, so far no fever. Stinks I won't get my weekend hike in. Hopefully the weather will be nice this week to make up for it.
10/16- 150.48 Nothing new to report. Still sick.

Round 19 starting weight 158.9
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.
10/10- 162.4. Under calories, trying to hit higher but I am nutritionally balanced.
11/10- 158.5 worked through lunch but ate a little. Work survey and a huge dog walk. Under protein macro. Still thirsty.
12/10-156. Hit good macros & all vitamins but when it all added up I was under calories again.
13/10-...
14/10-158.9. Pulled two 15 hour days this weekend, went to camp but had mostly salad bar, big meals but as nutritiously dense as camp is capable of. Forgot my vitamins, sigh.
15/10-158.7. Gas station dinner on the road. Potatoe calories count for something, right?
16/10- 157.7. Got into the pjs too early and wasn't prepared for the rotten veg in the fridge. Failed to be motivated for a groceries run in the rain. Hit the iron goal, thanks to vitamins but not even close to enough calories.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10: 185.0 -going to lose 3lbs!
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!
10/14: 184 - another good day yesterday. 20,000 steps
10/15: 183.4 -
10/16: 184.6 - pizza. That's all I'm saying.
10/17: 185.8 - Nooooo! I was good yesterday and did 12000 steps. Really hoping it's water.
