Day Four - preparation is the key!
Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 10st 10lb starting weight - excellent day only 110gm protein though target 120gm per day.
11/20 - didn't weigh this morning but will weigh first thing tomorrow. Hate those scales. Food choices excellent and going to fit in extra gym session tonight.
11/21 - 10st 9.5lb weighed in the morning. Probably need to weigh in in the evening. Ate loads of protein gms today. Not craving sweet stuff and hit all my goals today.
11/22 - 10st 8.75lb happy with that! Working for a bakery is challenging. Managed to do a whole day at the main bakery with out sampling a thing. Filled up on protein shake early doors which keeps the hunger at bay. Have 2 days away from home now. Need to think about choices when eating out. May not be able to weigh tomorrow......8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19= 223.8 lbs- Well, too bad this wasn't yesterday. I could have had a loss for the last round. Pretty happy to see this drop though! Now...to keep this number through Thanksgiving...that's my goal. Losing would be great, but I'll be happy to stay right here for the next 10 days as long as I don't gain.
11/20= 225.3- I didn't stay where I wanted but I'm still less than R22 EW.
11/21= Forgot to weigh before I ate breakfast, so I just didn't weigh in.
11/22= 225.3- Still holding; really hope I don't go up too much because of Thanksgiving dinner and leftovers. I'm planning to have seriously moderate portions, skip the rolls, and only one small slice of pie for dessert. Leftovers will be only for meals, not random eating anytime, and will not be an entire plateful.

I have 2 thanksgiving meals to go to this round and my cousin's wedding, so my goal is to maintain the same average weight this round as last round.
11/19: 119.8- This is a jump up of a lb from yesterday, but I'm really feeling my strength workout from yesterday so I think that is contributing a bit to the increase.
11/20: 120.4- Eating wasn't great yesterday as I bought my nemesis, tortilla chips, at the store.
11/21: 119.4- Not excited to see the scale tomorrow I had movie theater popcorn for the first time in 6 months. And it wasn't even as good as I remembered!!
11/22: 119.8- Well it went up but it could have been worse. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I'm looking forward to the turkey and mashed potatoes.

11/20: 161.5
Did what I was supposed to do today. A bit anxious about a work event tomorrow.
11/21: 161.0
Saw this about a week ago. On my feet and outside most of the day today. OK day for calories, protein, etc. Probably a bit dehydrated although I drank over 2L. Kind expecting to be down tomorrow but I could be wrong.
11/22: 161.5
So, I was wrong on that one. Glad to have the day off tomorrow. We go to a relative's house for the holiday, not sure how I'll do on food. I pre-logged some stuff and I'm not planning to have wine or appetizers, but I'm going to have to say no a lot.

Current weight- 148.94 (no loss last round)
10 Day Goal: Same as last 2 round. 148.3 This will make me 15 lbs. down since the start of my weight loss. Also hoping to up my activity this week to counteract the Thanksgiving meal we are planning on having with friends this weekend.
Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 - 149.16 This should be normal fluctuation since I have been sticking with the plan. Went to the pub for a drink last night, but we walk there and back which is about .5 mile. The cold and early darkness is making it difficult to get my walks in, but I am determined to keep at it as long as I'm able.
11/20 - 148.28 I hope I don't bounce up and down all round again.
11/21 - 148.28 Was surprised to see this number again today. I've been getting really munchie late at night but resisting the urge to eat more. I might try moving dinner an hour later and see if it helps.
11/22 - 148.06 Had pizza as a treat for dinner. It was well within my calories so I should be ok.

The Plan - Lots of water, spreading calories across 10 day period to stay under an average of 1300.

11/19 - 65.5kg - Big blow out with friends on Saturday and TOTM. Still, thought I was out of seeing the 65s! Grrrr.
11/20 - 65.1kg - Still seeing the effects of Saturday and my big Sunday dinner
11/21 - 64.4kg - Back down to my usual bump for hormonal water retention. So so bloated.
11/22 - 64.2kg - Slowly slowly back down. I want to see a 63 in there tomorrow! Had a bit of a stress eat yesterday but managed to do a bit of damaged control. Today is another day!
11/23 - 64.1kg - Still feeling like I have a brick in my stomach. Had a snack attack again last night so I am going to add a snack in for afternoon tea and see if I can avoid raiding the cupboards before dinner tonight.

I'm in for my second round if that's ok
Round 22 start weight - 151.40
Round 23 start weight - 145.80
I'm aiming to finish this round about 143.50.......
11/19 145.70 - only 0.1lb down but happy as its the weekend
11/20 145.80 - that 0.1lb has gone back on again but really happy as it means that I have effectively maintained over the weekend which is always a big thing! I know its wasn't fat gain but often used to "gain" 2-3 lb over a weekend so a good start for me for R23
11/21 146.00 minimal 0.2 lb on - don't know why as drank usual amount of water, did my 12 mile cycle ride, ate within my calories. But I am effectively maintaining which after my losses in the last round which were so much more than I thought, I am happy with. I am still 5.4 lbs down from where I was two weeks ago - yay!!! Non scale victory today though - put on a pair of trousers for work I haven't worn for a few weeks and they were so much looser so whatever the scale says today I have definitely lost inches so all good!!! Good food day planned and 1hr PT session tonight
11/22 145.1 -0.9lbs. Obviously last 2 days were a weekend backlash (although not totally sure why - can only be my Sunday apple crumble again!). I'm in the UK so no thanksgiving for us but a night out with the girls on Friday for chinese so salt likely to play a part over the weekend - must remember to keep drinking plenty.
11/23 144.8 another .30 lb gone. Feeling motivated at the minute - not sure why or how or whats different? Maybe its coming on here every day and "checking in" and seeing everyone else's comments - not sure. But feeling motivated, feeling good.
11/24 Chinese with the girls tonight - intending to stay focused and not go mad!

R22: start 60.5
R23: end weight R22 60.2. I really really want to stick to 59s!
11/19 - 60.2
11/20 - 60.0 - ran 7km on the treadmill yesterday, so all good. Ate a little bit of bread and too much cheese, but all in all was a good day. Hopefully tomorrow will go under 60 again!
11/21 - 59.8 - hello 59! Good dieting yesterday! No sweets, healthy eating all day.
11/22 - 60.3 - Don't know how this happened. I ate well, exercised at lunch, no carbs or sweets all day. Could be my salad in the evening was too bug, but still
11/23 - 58.8 - Ran 8km yesterday evening, so maybe this is just the water loss through sweat. I will see tomorrow the real weight! Ate well, had some sweets (200cal or so.. so quite a lot), but exercising seems to work well for me

@Slimpossible007 I ate at 'recommended' maintenance, too. I wish I hadn't as my weight went way up. I know it's probably just water because of the change in routine, but it's annoying all the same. I'll be sticking to basic calories for a few days then will go back to my own maintenance programme.
I HAVE the power and determination to do this.
Change in focus. In the normal range for my age height and build, on maintenance.
New Primary Goal - 160lbs +/- 2lbs.
I was ill most of Round 22, but achieved my goal.
Of course, losing a pound a Round 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 RoundsSpoilerMany 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!

@TerriRichardson112 That's twice I have eaten at maintenance cals and my weight has dropped the following day
granted my maintenance according to the site I looked at is only 200 above where I normally eat so that may be the difference ..
I done them a day apart .. and I will do the same for the 3rd maintenance day .. so Friday I will eat higher again4 -

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 - 185 - lunch with old friend and ribs for dinner. Feel like I made healthy choices so not worried about this gain.
11/20 - 184.2 - moving in the right direction. Introducing alcohol back into my diet slows the process to a crawl. Truly need to get a handle on drinking.
11/21 - 183.4 - Back to my end 22 weight, I feel good but the weight is dropping so slowly, all I want for Christmas is the 170's....
11/22 - 183.2 - Decided to meal prep and made a wonderful crustless quiche with broccoli, roasted red pepper, red onion, fresh dill, all the good stuff. It smelled delicious and looked beautiful and festive. I carefully recorded and weighed every ingredient for my log. I left it to cool on the stove and my stepson spied it and asked if he could have some. Long story short - he used a stool to get a small plate from an upper shelf and left the stool at the counter and when I walked into the kitchen next there was an opportunistic Chihuahua eating the quiche. I just wanted to cry.
11/23 - 182.8 - new low! Canadian's have already had our Thanksgiving day feast in October so it's smooth sailing for me until Christmas! Happy Turkey Day to my friends that celebrate it.

I am back for Round 23. I've been logging my calories every single day, but it hasn't been easy. I'd forget until the last minute. I'd do it though, and I never missed a day. Both of my sons' had really messed up birthdays this last round. My oldest turned 14 and my youngest turned 9. For 2 weeks we were at the hospital with Mom, and the day after our sons' made it through their birthdays (which are 4 days apart), Mom passed away. We've been in Missouri laying her to rest. It has been incredibly hard, and it is going to take some time to get back into the swing of things. Cancer is an ugly beast. I don't want her in pain or suffering anymore, but how I miss her so very much. We spoke every single day. Sometimes it was about her grandchildren, about her health, about the weather, what we were making for dinner, or what we did that day. I'm going to miss those talks most of all. Everyone keeps saying I will get adjusted to the new normal, but I'm not liking it at all right now.
I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks @quiltingjaine for sending a message to check up on me. You knew what had happened without me saying a single word. You just noticed my absence. I appreciate that you reached out with your support and condolences. It means so much. You're the reason why I'm back this morning...doing these challenges again.
Round 23 SW: 166.8
GW: 166
UGW: 125
11/19 166.8 After a week on the road and living in a hotel to lay Mom to rest.
11/20 167.6 Housework all day
11/21 167.6 Back to work for the first time since Mom's been gone. It was a really hard day for me, and I just wanted to come back home.
11/22 166.8 Going ahead with Thanksgiving preparations for Mom's side. I don't really feel like celebrating, but I need to do this for her.
11/23 166.6 I am struggling today and feel sick to boot.
