I weigh first thing in the morning when I get up. My scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Comments reflect prior day.10/20/17: Oooh, I like this thread! I've been weighing myself daily since April, keeping track in MFP Food Notes, and logging my "official" weigh-ins on Saturdays. I've been amazed at how much my weight can fluctuate from day to day, depending on eating out or processed foods, adult beverages, net calories green or red, etc. Daily weigh-ins really help me see cause and effect with high sodium days, adult beverages, too much sugar, etc. I don't get freaked out as much by a jump on the scale now, since I know what I did to cause it, and what I can do to change it. My scale measures in 1/2 # increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale.
R20 SW 166.0 (my round 1)
R20 LW 164.5 EW 166.5
R21 LW 163.0 EW 164.0Round 21
10/30: 166.0 Very sedentary day (church, visit parents & 3 hour round trip) following high carb day, no surprise. Fitbit 3,888 steps, 250+ steps 5/14 hours & 7 floors. At least I drank 12c water.
10/31: 165.0 Fitbit 13,521 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 48 floors and 12c water
11/01: 164.5 Fitbit 13,993 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 40 floors; 12c water
11/02: 164.0 Dog-walk day plus active evening: two loads of laundry, made large couscous salad, cooked triple batch cream of leek soup & baked lemon zucchini cake. Fitbit 16,109 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 42 floors; 13c water.
11/03: 165.0 Expected. Net calories red plus non-dog walk day plus shortened workday (fewer stairs breaks) plus inactive evening (busy-ness & stress of past 3 days took its toll). Fitbit 8,110 steps, 250+ steps 10/14 hours & 20 floors. 12c water.
11/04: 163.0 Wow, unexpected. Of course, net calories green, dog walk day & kept busy around the house after work. Fitbit 16,188 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 49 floors (plenty of stairs breaks at work plus home); 12c water.
11/05: 164.5 Pizza for supper, net calories red & 12c water. Walked dog 3.58 miles. Fitbit 16,837 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours, and 28 floors.
11/06: 166.0 Ack! Can you say sodium? Not great eating all day but active. Then caved when hubby got out tortilla chips & salsa con queso in the evening. Usually I ignore his snacking, but he was sitting next to me on the couch. I will have to forbid snacking next to me in future. Net calories red > 500 and sodium > 4,600mg oh my! 10c water and Fitbit 15,573 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 20 floors. Will be drinking lots of water today.
11/07: 164.0 Better. Net calories red 12, sodium green & 15c water. Fitbit 14,887 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 41 floors.
11/08: 164.0 Non-dog walk day, net calories red 319 & 12c water. Fitbit 7,056 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 28 floors. On to the next round!

I'm in again! Thanks for keeping this going. It's easy to feel we're not progressing or we're slower than everyone else, but seeing the round by round numbers and other people's ups as well as downs is reassuring and inspiring.
My goals this round: really pay attention to macros - 30% protein and fat, 40% carbs; walk when Oregon rain allows and strength train 3 days a week; read something inspiring and meditate daily.7 -

I've decided that I am going to eat at maintenance for 2/7 days a week, which is why I am going to start using my average weight. Want to offset hormonal changes that occur when losing weight for extended periods of time that can make it harder to lose and maintain weight and hoping to elevate potential emotional stress of constantly being in a deficit. Last weekend was my first time intentionally eating at maintenance and not only did my weight basically stay the same, which it should, but I didn't realize how hard it is and how hard it probably will be when I do reach maintenance mode. Let' see how this works.

Welcome back @iLadyT! Those vacation pounds are going to melt away in no time!!Joining again for another round! I’ve fallen off the wagon and I’m hoping this challenge will help me saddle up and stay on track. Went on vacation last week and gained 3lbs, not bad but hoping to get back to 187 by the end of this challenge!
That's right @swopen, it matters not what happened yesterday, it is today and all the tomorrows that count!This has helped me stay accountable. Last round I didn't do so well, but I'm ready to start again!

Well, I had a bad week of maintaining goals because of an auto accident. In addition, my pelvic girdle pain is becoming more constant, I’m scaling back almost entirely on walks and starting in the pool this week. I’m so tired; haven’t gained much yet but babe under my heart is growing a little ahead of first predicted date.

I HAVE the power and determination to do this.
I am in the normal range for my age height and build, so I wondered if I was being realistic in my Target Goal Weight. I'm fitter and healthier than I have been for decades. I think fit and healthy should be my new focus rather than weight loss!
New Primary Goal - stay under 160lbs.
Failed miserably at this last round. I am determined to do better this time round.
Losing a pound would be ace, as I would like a cushion for celebrations.
to all the Newbies, and Hi to those returning for another Round. This has given me an element of daily accountability which is motivational.
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 does come off, bit by stubborn bit! If you 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!

I’m traveling for work for 6 days this round so I plan to be more strict on those days. I'm feeling really good about my new way of eating. The last few months I’ve been following a whole food plant based diet. Not only do I feel great, but my weight has been dropping effortlessly. My goal has been to average 1/2 pound less every round. I’m close to my ultimate goal so I don’t expect to lose any faster than that.
Female, 5'4"
Starting Weight: 135 lbs
