    RD 21- Avg Weight: 121.1
    RD 22- Avg Weight: 119.8
    RD 23- Avg Weight: 119.5

    Looking forward to joining this challenge again! I have found it very helpful in understanding and accepting my daily fluctuations as well as focusing me on making better choices. I ended the last round at 118.8 lbs and would like to see 117.9 sometime this round. My goal is to average 118.9 or better this round.

    11/29: 118.2- I'm trying to preplan all my meals this week for another challenge and it is helping me stay on track. Lots of events going on in the next few weeks so I could use the help.
    11/30: 119.2- I was really hungry yesterday, but I didn't eat an extra 3500 calories
    12/1: 118.8- I guess my post didn't go through yesterday.
    12/2: 120- I had 4 cups of waissel at a Christmas tea yesterday. Whoops.

    Current avg weight: 119.1

    I HAVE the power and determination to do this.

    Change in focus. In the normal range for my age height and build, on maintenance.

    Had a bit of a blip last round as I was ill.

    New Primary Goal - 160lbs +/- 2lbs.

    Of course, losing a pound a Round would be ace, as I would like a cushion for celebrations.

    pretty-pink-welcome-smiley-emoticon.gif 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 Rounds
    Many 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.
    Don't beat yourself up over a temporary gain. Trust the process and stick with the programme.
    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!

    Goal this round: Maintain? Since it is the holidays and I’ve been carbo-loading for my running as it ramps up, I think I am just going to try to maintain this round. I've also been stagnating around 133 and that is certainly within a healthy weight for me. I might try to kick it down a bit further starting Jan 1.

    Had a bunch of food to recover after intense 10 mile trail run yesterday (and a bit of alcohol to celebrate). Going to track today a bit better. Weight coming down after the race but still sore so I imagine I am holding onto some extra water as my muscles try to repair themselves.

    SW 155.7 35.5% BF (July 19, 2017)
    GW 125-130, 21% BF
    Round 17 136.6 29.3% BF
    Round 18 138.0 28.5 % BF
    Round 19 135.1 27.0% BF (but had a couple extra days in there)
    Round 20 133.6 27.4% BF
    Round 21 133.0 26.2% BF
    Round 22 132.5 26.2% BF
    Round 23 133.3 24.4% BF

    11/29 134.1 25% BF
    11/30 132.2 25.1% BF
    12/01 132.2 25.1% BF
    12/02 135.6 26.7% BF This was after a 10 mile race and food so not sure comparable to the other numbers.
    12/03 134.5 25.7% BF Shake out run
    12/04
    12/05
