R19 SW 158.9
R20 SW 156.2 (in my birthday suit this round!)
Pregnant & gaining average 1lb per week. Goals: hydration, vitamins, balanced macros, toning exercise daily.
10/20 157.9 lunch courtesy of the office meant unhealthy pub options, but I finally nailed my macros and had a good calorie count. Very bloated & even more thirsty than last week.
10/21 158.2 big lunch big dinner; still under calories. So many leaves raked - and I bet it'll be windy tonight.
10/22 161.7 A 'rest' day just with housework and dog walking.
10/23 160.1 There should be a calorie count for washing a large dog. First prenatal yoga. Managed to hit high protein without even trying- pinto beans. Wow.
10/24 160.1 twice I ate past the point of being full on purpose, my stomach is so much smaller these days, even though my uterus is still tiny! Weirdly opposite of what I expected aaannnd still under calories. Maybe the guts get backed up. Two quick walks to the mechanic and a regular pitch-black (read: slow as all hell) walk with the dog really gave me surprisingly high activity minutes.
10/25 traveling, not very active.

10/20 133.5 - stayed on track yesterday. Gotta stay the course
10/21 132.5 - not what I expected... DD came home from college yesterday, so made a nice lasagna dinner with apple cake for dessert... and I ate over my calorie count. Probably won’t hold, but that’s why I’m doing this
10/22 132.5 - I’m finding this group activity motivating! Knowing I was going to report my weight today kept the late night munching away
10/23 134 - what the...? probably the yummy pho I ate for lunch had high sodium - I stayed close on my calorie goal and even did some running.
10/24 134 - hmmm
10/25 133 - finally! Sticking with the program is paying off!7 -
Once you see results, it becomes an addiction. So work on getting the results and make an addiction to change your life

My goal for R18 -- R19 R20 is for my avg weight to be under 14 stone (196 lbs)
UGW 140
19/10 - 194.6 - R 19 was better than round 18 but I am still chasing my lowest weight to date( 193.2 lbs) it would be nice to see that number appearing this round. I am still eating lower calories due to sciatica pain limiting my movement, but I am also managing to exercise more now that I was in the previous rounds.
20/10 - 194.8 - a great start, I was scared this was going to jump up to 197 again! .. oh for a round I don't see that number or above!
21/10 - 195.2 - still happy with this, had a drink last night so my cals were higher but still within budget, still drinking my water mon-Fri - I will be happy this round if I do not see 197 or above!! and ecstatic if I don't see 196 or above
22/10 - 195.4 - still happy here .. but seriously hoping it doesn't keep ticking up by 0.2 lbs a day :-/
23/10 - 194.4 - drinking water and still under calories
24/10 - 194.2 - now I am perfectly happy with it ticking down 0.2 a day
25/10 - 195.0 - under cals and still drinking my water from Mon - Fri

R19 - 65.5kg
10/20 - 65.8kg - Ate at maintenance yesterday and needed a heavier carb day but am happy to see the bump up was quite small. I still don't trust that I'm in the 65s! Girls night tonight so expecting to be up tomorrow!
10/21 - 66.6kg - as expected!
10/22 - 66.6kg - it's been a mental weekend. Working til 11pm both nights. Not a spare second to myself. Need to go grocery shopping and make some time for exercise tomorrow.
10/23 - 67.5kg - groceries done, lots of health food and no excuses. Glad to be back into a more normal routine. Not sure I'll make goal but would like to see my start weight for the round again.
10/24 - 66.4kg - Only half a kilo until I'm back at my start weight for this round. Low cals and lots of water to make up for the weekend. It would be nice to not be battling against my weekends constantly. I see a frustrating pattern here!
10/25 - 65.5kg - Dinner tonight with the in-laws so am doing some pre-damage control with a run and a light lunch. Intermittent fasting seems to be my friend just now, as does drinking lots of water. Have not exercised once this round so would like to get out there tonight, not for the scale but for my own health and happiness!
10/26 - 65.1kg - C'mon mini-goal!! Within cals, low carbs, lots of water. Finally got to the gym this morning. Going to make plans to get through the two parties I have this weekend without the bump back up in weight. Advice welcome, PM me!

Enjoy the party but be conscience of your food choices. Try to stick with the healthier foods if it helps you. Once you start making those choices everywhere you go, it becomes second nature.6 -

10/20: 160.2 Happy for my 3rd day at 160.x! I am hoping that I can leave the 160's behind over the next 10 days!
10/21: 160.4 I was sooooo hungry last night even though I had a nice filling dinner. I had some extra calories and let myself have a few small snacks. Still woke up with a growling and very hungry stomach this morning! Very busy day today, 2 kid birthday parties today with pizza and cake. My plan is to skip pizza (probably chain pizza that really isn't that good) and consider cake once if it looks worth it.
10/22: 160.2 I'm posting later in the day but weight was done this morning like always. Very active day today! W4d1 of C25K, completely cleaning out chicken coop, and hauling lots wood. 21,000 steps and the day is not over yet. I will definitely have water retention tomorrow. My muscles are hurting big time! Plus I will be enjoying some beers during the Pats game tonight. Go Pats!!
10/23: 162.0 I knew I would be up today. Just hoping it goes back down fast!
10/24: 161.8 I expected to be down more today. Ate under calories, limited sodium, and drank a good amount of water. Continued focus today!
10/25: 160.8 slow and steady release of extra fluid. Hoping to finally get below 160 soon. Keeping a deficit daily so it has to at some point!
10/26: 159.4 Finally!! Now to stay below 160!

Thanks! I get 4000 steps just from walking to and from the subway during my daily commute and I'm always walking around the building for work. If I drove to work, the steps would be so hard for me to get in.
I know how you feel about battling the same couple of pounds. I was in that battle when I was in the 180s. It took a while but I finally got over the hump and looks like you're about to too!
I don't live anywhere that I could walk to work because I live in a rural area, so thats a good idea that you do that. I do spend my entire day walking and going up and downstairs when I am there at work though. It's Fall Break this week, so I've been relaxing a bit more than usual. The 180s gave me a fit too but nothing like this. So did the 190s and 200s. Whenever I hit a 10 lb drop and am trying to break through to a new digit, it doesn't want to shed off at all.
Congratulations to you for making it over that hump. I hope that I soon follow your lead. Lol 5 -

10/21 - 187.8 DH brought KFC home for dinner. I think it's still sitting undigested in my tummy. Stayed within calories but I think I absorbed all the salt judging from the weight gain.
10/22 - 187.2
10/23 - 188.4 OMG I need to stay away from alcohol! Sigh....
10/24 - 188.4 I have a question - I've had one period in the last two years, but the last few months I feel like I'm bloated and that I'm going to have one. Has anyone had these 'ghost periods' after menopause?

I wish I could help, but I am only perimenopausal and that's early for me. I do know that I had an ablation done several years ago, and I have all the symptoms without the actual cycle. I know my Mother is going through it now, and she will go multiple months without it. Then, she feels sick to her stomach and has cramps and things.4 -
176.6 SW for round 20 challenge
172.6 CGW
4 pound goal for 10 days may be lofty, but I have a 15K race tomorrow and a half marathon next Saturday so lots of calorie burning this next week.
10/20 - 176.6
10/21 - 177.0 - well fire, that's no good! Ran a 15K trail run today so hopefully I'll see good stuff in the a.m.
10/22 - 176.0 - Now that's what I'm talkin about!
10/23 - 175.8 - super thrilled with that number. It's not much down but what a huge boost for my mindset. Yesterday was a complete rest day after my race on Saturday so I was LAZY!. Watched my intake and drank some water but certainly not enough. Now I'm off to the gym to lift and cardio.
10/24 - 175.4 - Moving on down. Drank lots of water yesterday and added the stair master into my workout. Can I just say, I feel like someone beat the fire out of me! Only way to get over that is get back to it today. 5 mile run, lifting for upper body and abs.....and yes more of the stairs.
10/25 - 174.4 - I like it. Hard work pays off. Got all my water in too.
10/26 - 173.2 - This drop is NOT due to any hard work on my part. Had terrible upper stomach pains and nausea yesterday so stuck with crackers, water, rest and no exercise. Better this morning and have to get out and run a couple of miles today for my final run before my half marathon Saturday. We will see what the scale brings tomorrow.

10/22 - 251.8 - I took a day off from tracking, exercising, and eating well. Emotionally, I needed a break from the stress. No surprise on the scale. Tomorrow will be better, I'm back on track today

10/25 - 252.4 - Crazy day at work, but night. I need to get out of this funk but I'm pretty sure work stress is what's causing it. Not really sure how to eliminate that...
10/26 - 250.2 - Had delicious eggs for dinner last night. I feel like I'm starting to get back to it, hoping that my resolve continues.
