Round 19
Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 --- 192.4 (I was down to 191, but gained a little over the past 2 weeks)
10/11 ---- 191.2 I am trying to follow the South Beach Diet to get myself motivated again, but I can't do completely without carbs. Even though I am on Phase 1, and suppose to just keep away from carbs for 1 week, I am more just using this as a guideline as to what to eat (2 cups veggies lunch and dinner and protein, and 1/2 c veggies and protein at breakfast). We did have popcorn last nite, but I was OK with that. I am now back to where I was on Oct 1st!
10/12 --- 189.6. I am FINALLY in the 80s!!!! Yesterday my day I did not eat what I had planned, but I am practicing "mindful"eating, and being aware of what I eat. And I think the main thing is the water -- trying to drink more water.
10/13 - 191. Hate to see it go back up! But, last nite I ate 2 large bowls of popcorn, after a stressful evening. Didn't weight this morning until after my workout, and I drank 2 large glasses of gatorade, so I am hoping that is part of the weight increase as well. But .... I am not going to get discouraged.
10/14 - 190.2. Not the best day of eating, health wise - chicken tenders and a smoothie from mcdonalds. But calorie-wise, I did better.
10/15 - 191.2 OH NO!! But ..... I didn't weigh myself until after I went to the gym, and I had drank 2 large bottles of water. I also didn't drink much water yesterday, and some tomato juice in the evening... so hoping this is water weight
10/16 - 189.8
10/17 - 189.6
10/18 -189.8 - but this was after the gym, and after I drank 1 bottle of water. So glad to still be in the 80s!

I LOVE this thread!! It keeps me going, because I see that others also have weight fluctuations.6 -

Round 19 Start Weight: 219.0
Revised - Round 19 Goal Weight: 213 (was 214.5)
10/10 - 219.0 - Pushing back on Thanksgiving....
10/11 - 215.4 - Goodbye Thanksgiving! Yep I did the whole get off and back on the scale after I checked the battery...must keep this up! (obviously won't be shocked tomorrow when this number bounces right?)
10/12 - 216.6 - As expected...will be good today and hopefully see the 215's back tomorrow. Dear water...I love you. Love, me.
10/13 - 216.0 - So close! Reevaluated my goal for this round - I love a good challenge! Weekend will make or break this! Must stay focused - nothing going on this weekend but is supposed to rain the whole time so outside time will be limited.
Might be a cozy moviethon weekend. Hmm...Bond...Potter...Star Wars...Bourne...Pirates...Oceans...Hobbits...so many and not enough time!
10/14 - 218.6 - LONG night. Been up since 2 with my daughter - ambulance at 4 for my mother (who lives with me) - STRESS!!!
10/15 - 222.0 - Another stressful day but things are ok...
10/16 - 217.6 - Feeling overwhelmed and lost.
10/17 - 215.8 - So close to my low for this round. Need to get motivated and keep things in check.
10/18 - 218.6 - Culprit? Fish tacos for dinner last night and around 2 am, my toddler crawled into bed with me. Between the ninja moves (I mean seriously, I would be asleep and all of a sudden, a tiny human arm would unknowingly crack me in the face, turn over and go back to sleep), the human blanket, the bed hog, the blanket hog, the pillow hog, I am pretty sure I got a good 2 hours sleep. Plus my water intake was not as good yesterday. Sorry body, my fault on this one. Let's try to end below our start weight!

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.
10/17- 150.48
10/18- 150.7 Feeling a bit better today, hopefully it lasts.

10/11 - 149.8
Yes! Finally, some downward momentum. Even if it lasts only few days, I'll take it.
10/12 - 150
Just one of those things.... I met my hubby 26 years ago today, so he's taking me out for lunch - he's such a romantic. :-) I'm going to eat whatever I want.
10/13 - 152
I was expecting this. Sodium, I'm sure. We went out for lunch and I had tomato parmesan soup and a big ruben, and late in the evening I was finally hungry and ate more than I usually do in the evening. Plus it was cold and rainy so I didn't get my usual 4-mile walk. Back on track today, and I thoroughly enjoyed my food yesterday!
10/14 - 149.8
Apparently those gallons of water I drank yesterday did the trick. Thurs lunch was great, and no real damage done. :-) The rain has stopped, so I can get my walks in as usual. Wishing you all a terrific weekend!
10/15 - 149.8
I'm surprised, as I indulged a bit yesterday. Maybe it will show up tomorrow, but it's fine if it doesn't!
10/16 - 149.8
Still here! I hit my calorie/macro goals and walked 85 minutes, and have the same planned for today. I guess my body likes ~150! But sooner or later, something has to give.
10/17 - 149.8
Is today Groundhog Day? :-)
10/18 - 149.8
Okay then! At .2 per 10 days, I should hit my goal in 5 of 6 years. :-) Something will give, but it's hard to be patient. But my clothes feel looser!

It's about the daily seemingly unimportant decisions. But consistently making them everyday is what leads to success. I love the way I feel at night & the next morning after having stayed on track.

Weigh In day 9!
MFP starting weight- 87.6kg (July 17)
Round 19 starting weight- 82.4
Round 19 Goal weight- 80.9kg - done!
Revised round 19 Goal weight 80.2
10/10- 80.9kg - pretty happy with this first day! Already at GOAL! but yesterday was a fasting day so not expecting the drop to hold. Let's see how we go tomorrow.
11/10- 81.0- was expecting a bit of a bump today, but REALLY pleased that it was so small. Was a non-fast day yesterday and I usally overeat when I'm allowed to eat! But I stuck to my calories and it paid off. Lets do it again today.
12/10- 80.9 - fast day today, hopefully can get a bit lower into the 8-0s for tomorrow
13/10- 80.5- yes!!! Have revised my goal for this round. Let's push it a bit further!
14/10- 80.1 - I'm not getting too excited about this one. I've got a huge weekend on with lots of food and alcohol- expect to see a HUGE bump tomorrow.
15/10- 80.7- there's the bump. 45million glasses of champagne followed by a huge dirty burger will do that. Another big day today, hopefully not too much damage on the scales tomorrow.
16/10- 81.6kg wow. So much damage on the scales!! Fasting today, hopefully can reverse some of it. Might have to do a fourth fast day if I want to hit my goal!
17/10- 80.2kg - thank you magic fast day! I'm starting the imagine seeing the big 7-9 sometime soon
18/10- 80.0kg
I'm really ready to start seeing some sevens.
19/10- 79.6kg
Following 5:2- so want to commit to 3 fast days and a real focus on watching cals on my non-fast days. Plus 30min walk each day.
Fast days completed 4/3
Thanks to whoever started the 10 day challenge. This was my first round and logging here every day really helped me stay on track. Looking forward to the next one!8 -

Day || Weight || Comment
10/10 || 64,3kg (141,7lbs) || Already 1,4kg (3lbs) 'lost' aka I guess my binge-eating from Sunday has gone down haha. I know I'm going to be eating bad today however (I'm having my cheat meal today) so it'll probably show on the scale tomorrow or the day after sadly! | 1L of water✓ | 92 active minutes✓
10/11 || 64,4kg (141,9lbs) || Not too bad for the day after my cheat meal! I felt hungry throughout the day sometimes though, so maybe I should eat a bit more | 1L of water✓ | 60 active minutes✓
10/12 || 64,3kg (141,7lbs) || I guess it’s better than going up? | 1L of water✓ | 41 active minutes✓
10/13 || 63,9kg (140,8lbs) || Yay I needed this kind of motivation! Friday the 13th isn’t always unlucky haha. I ate more throughout the day yesterday but kept within my calories. I also had some sweet things, but all in moderation! Guess that’s the way to go~ | 1L of water✓ | 70 active minutes✓
10/14 || 63,3kg (139,5lbs) [/b]|| Well, while I am super happy to see that number I doubt it’ll last… I binge-ate yesterday. I stayed within my calories, but I ate a cereal, muesli cookies and a mini magnum (total of 450kcal) that my body did not NEED at that moment, considering I was quite bloated afterwards. Disappointed in myself. I am proud of myself though that I did some ‘exercise’ even though it wasn’t part of my goals and it was only walking. | 1L of water✓ | 55 active minutes✓
10/15 || 64,1kg (141,3lbs) || Crazy how much a night out (and again some binging) can show on the scale! (that and yesterday’s number was a lie that my scale told me haha). I’m going to pick up some books about binge-eating. I know it’s not magically going to go away with reading a book, but maybe I’ll learn some coping systems or so. I also drank a bit more water today! Hopefully I won’t end up binging again tonight… | 1L of water✓ | 24 active minutes✓
10/16 || 63,1kg (139,1lbs) || I think both me and my scale are confused haha. I mean, it’s normal to have fluctuations, but I usually don’t get 1 kg fluctuations. You won’t hear me complain though, I prefer this number over yesterdays! So I didn’t end up binging last night and drank a bit more water so I guess there’s what that comes from. I might start a “haven’t binged in … days” like @wannabesmaller2017, it might motivate me and keep track of things. I also went to the gym today and felt great! Tonight I will be having my cheat meal, so I think it might show on tomorrows number, but we’ll see! | 1L of water✓ | 98 active minutes✓
10/17 || 63,3kg (139,5lbs) [/b]|| Not too bad! I’m posting this right before going to bed. Didn’t have a good day (very bad actually) so I did indulge a bit, but nothing too bad. Still think it will show tomorrow on the scale though! Hopefully I’ll see the 62s once by the end of the challenge, but that might a bit too much to wish for | 1L of water✓ | 42 active minutes✓
10/18 || 63,3kg (139,5lbs) || Had an absolute terrible day, which showed in my eating habits (went to Mcdonalds, barely drank any water, didn’t work out) siiiigh, sad to probably end the challenge in a high number tomorrow | 0,5L of water× | 0 active minutes×

10/10: 218.4
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!
10/17: 219.8
Kept hoping this would go down, but it didn't; could it be the 2 pieces of birthday cake I ate
or the water I didn't drink enough of ? But for the good news, I did get my exercise in today to make up for missing yesterday 
!
10/18: 219.6
Got my exercise in today! Drinking my water! Eating wisely! Ok, weight, throw your best at me, but you will find there ain't no give up in this lady!!

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.
10/17 - 302.2 Yay!! Back onto the downward spiral. Hope everyone is doing great and having success.
10/18 - 302.6 Damn!! I knew that late at night cheese toast would get me lol. Still happy and know tmo I will still be down from the first day = winning! Still need to drink more water.

10/12: 224.6lbs
-> -> another day of under eating, maybe I caught something.. have no hunger, feeling queasy.
10/13: 226.2lbs

10/14: 226.4lbs
-> -> sick and bed ridden. Been drinking lots of fluids.
10/15: 224.2lbs
-> -> feverish, just drank lots of fluids
10/16: 224.6lbs

10/17: 223.2lbs
-> -> was able to eat, so that's always good. No exercise today, still feeling off. But! I've made plans for tomorrow to get me out of the house! I will still try to exercise a bit today even if they're just stretches.
10/18: 225.0lbs forgot to weigh myself this morning, so not an accurate weight. Walked today, ate out but ate healthy and didn't log anything in. Getting air made me feel better so will make it a priorityto go out tomorrow too!

Round 17 SW: 173.5
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.
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.
10/17: 168.0
I did everything I was supposed to do today except get enough protein. Oh, and not enough sleep last night. Good on calories, water, exercise, even servings of vegetables. No added sugar. I made a faux lasagna that will be dinner the next several days so I'm ready to start my work week tomorrow.
10/18: 167.5
I'm trying to get a lot more water before it gets too late. Woke up early for no reason, I've had a sleep deficit for a couple of weeks now. Walked two miles (to/from work), good on calories, veggies, protein. No added sugar.

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!
10/17: 150.6/I might be deceiving myself. When I weighed myself this morning, it was 151.2 but when I weighed myself after work, it was 150.6, so I'm going with that. I know I shouldn't weigh myself more than once a day but it happened. Ate within calories. A little over on sugar and under on protein. No exercise and not enough fluids. I failed on these goals. Hopefully I can turn things around.
10/18: 150.2/Yay! Although I won't be surprised if it goes up tomorrow. Went swimming today and biked home from the pool on Citibike. Ate within calories, still not great with protein and not enough water. It's a struggle for me.

R17 SW - 70.6kg (155.6)
R18 SW - 71.1kg (156.8)
R19 SW - 71.3kg (157.2)
Goal - think I’m being too ambitious, didn’t think my goal was unrealistic but so many things popping up like holidays and work trips that are stuffing me around. There is either nothing or it pours with trips. So this round I’m going to aim to get in and stay at 70kg something and stick to 5:2 and overall weekly calories.
10/10 - 71.3kg (157.2)
11/10 - 70.3kg (155) - well that’s a good start. Now just to stay here. I had an alright day yesterday but wasn’t on a low cal aka starvation day so I’m a little surprised about this good result.
12/10 - 69.8kg (153.9) - two months it has taken to get back here. What a week away for work does to me! Fingers crossed the next trip doesn’t mean the same in a couple of weeks. This is the weight where I ‘feel’ smaller, clothes too big, etc. it’s as though it’s my changing size weight. I love it!
13/10 - 69.6 (153.4)
14/10 - 71.5 (157.6)
15/10 - 72.3 (159.4) - look at that fluctuation from a weekend!
16/10 - 72.5kg (159.8)
17/10 - 71.5kg (157.6)
18/10 - 70.9kg (156.3) - stupid me broke my own rule and indulged in a couple of glasses of wine on a school night
19/10 - 70.5kg (155.4) - happy to finally stay within goal. Next round I’m hoping to do the same as overseas for work for a few days.

YAY! Bring on Round 20! For the first time in a long time I feel like my goal weight is within reach.
SW - 90kg
Challenge SW - 67.7kg
GW - 59kg
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!
10/14 - 66.1kg - Yes! Heavy weights last night and I've been really keeping on top of my food. Today, it was burgers and pints. It's all about balance right?
10/15 - 68.8kg - I'm very pleased to announce that I'm expecting a food baby! #glowing #soproud
10/16 - 68.6kg - Brewery and gin distillery tours, pizza, mexican feasts, the fun continues!
10/17 - 67.5kg - Water weight, BEGONE!
10/18 - 66.0kg- Ummmmm, hello!
10/19 - 65.5kg (Mini Goal: 66.2kg) - I was NOT expecting that! I drank all my water, laid off the salt and carbs so a bit of it will be to do with water but still, I'm very happy to finish the challenge under my goal. Let's just see if it sticks (spoiler alert: I've got a heavier carbs / weight lifting today so I'll be up tomorrow!).

10/10 - 154.4
10/11 - 154.2
10/12 - 152.4 I like this number! I know it will bounce back up before really settling here... this I have learned from these daily weigh ins.
10/13 - 152.2 I’m surprised, presently by this. Had some wine last night, that normally puts me up some.... I’ll take it and hold through the weekend. At least stay under 153. Happy Friday!
10/14 - 152.6 - keep it under 152 for the weekend....I can do this!
10/15 - 153
10/16 - 153.4
10/17 - 153.4
10/18 - 151.8 woo hoo! Swish! I know I’ll bounce up before staying here but I s coming!
10/19 / 152.6 - 2lbs. This round!12 -
EW Round 18 - 188
10/10 - away
10/11 - away
10/12 - 188 first day back from NYC. Was a feast for the eyes!
10/13 - 188.8 have to buckle down and get back on track.
10/14 - 188.8
10/15 - 188
10/16 - 189.2 !! On track and this is what I get, lol
10/17 - 187.4 Please stick..
10/18 - 187.8 Well it sorta stuck
10/19 - 186.8 So I end Round 19 with a loss of 1.2 pounds. That is pretty dang awesome and I feel like I'm back on track. I was never really off track just frustrated with water fluctuations. I've never had an issue with water weight because I was on a diuretic but since the Doctor took me off it I've been bouncing all over the place. I hope this is behind me now and my body is finally regulated.
See you all in Round 20!!12 -

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.
10/14: 160.8 Expected. Homemade pizza and a nice glass of wine last night. Still a downward trend!
10/15: 161.6 Ugh. Fighting a cold. Didn't get enough water yesterday. Tired even though I slept all night. I did get w2d3 of c25k done yesterday. Not really concerned with this number. Clearly, I'm a little out of whack this morning...
10/16: 162.2 Considering my day yesterday this is water retention. Still fighting a cold. I feel icky and waking up is the worst. Hoping I will feel good enough to get w3d1 of c25k done today. Light day at work so there is that!
10/17: 159.4 although it first locked in at 160.8. Either I am happy with! After my initial icky wake up I had a solid day. On target and rocked c25k workout.
10/18: 160.4 Good number. I would really like to end the 10 days at 160 tomorrow. Came in under calories yesterday and got a workout in!
10/19: 160.4 I will take it! 9.6 pounds down since starting 1 month ago. See you all in the next 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.
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.
10/17 172 again...did not eat breakfast but took a Sprite to work. First time in about 5 months. Felt horrid and wanted to settle my tummy.
10/18 171.8 *sigh*

Gosh..it's been a crazy 10 days this round. I have been Anemic for 4 years..even on the Keto Lifestyle, I can't seem to get my iron even to normal. I had to have some a Colonoscopy, Esophagogastroscopy, Mammogram, which they found a lump, then had to go back in for Ultrasound (Cyst only) and got a head cold and cough on top of all that. So glad it's all over and cold is getting better. Cough is hanging on
Very Happy I'm finally down 40lbs in 6.5 months. It's been slow but I would probably loose quicker if I actually exercise. I know..I don't at all. With working 10hr days 5-6 days a week, being Anemic and trying to get some sleep in..I just can't seem to get my *kitten* together for exercising. Hopefully soon??
See you guys in Round #20!!
