11/29 - 145.8 slow and steady! Ate within calories and had a green salad for lunch changing my goal for the round to 144. Need to have a bit of a push/goal for the round.
11/30 - 145.2 decent day yesterday. Went to the gym and ate within calories. A bit surprised I didn’t have some extra water retention but I’ll take it
12/01 -144.4 not sure where this came from, but ok. Maybe it’s my gym day showing up. Did some extra walking last night aka wandering/shopping at a huge craft sale so that also probably helped.
12/02 - 145.6 late weighing so this is probably out of whack. Had a dog competition all today and totally forgot this morning.
12/03 - 145.0 although I had a busy day yesterday we ended up going to the pub for dinner so I expect an increase over the next couple of days due to the beer and salt. Hopefully I didn’t completely derail things. More dog competition today so lots of movement at least.
12/04 - 146.2 Ugh! That must be Saturday night showing up. Hoping that goes away soon. Got lots of steps in from the dog competition. Also did pretty well for calorie intake as well. Went for the salad option for dinner hoping to make up for the pub on Saturday night.

11/29 223.5. I know holiday time is hard, so I'm trying to be kind with myself. I'm verifying today as a new start. I need to get back on track. I'm going to start keeping track of my exercise here as well. I do it in my food log, but if I'm putting it out there, maybe I'll actually do it in a regular basis! I've promised myself a new hair do when I make my first weight goal, so let's do this!
11/30 223.5 Exercised for 10 mins. yesterday. It's a start. Today I'm shooting for 20 mins.
12/01 223.5 Exercised for 20 mins. yesterday. Going to try to make it 30 mins. today. Drank 2 liters of water as well, but want to increase that to 3 today.
12/02 222.4 Going down! Only exercised for 5 mins. yesterday, and still only drank 2 liters of water. I was having a lot of fatigue, so just wanted to rest. Going to take a walk today for about an hour. Will increase water to 3 liters.
12/03 222.4 Took an hour long walk yesterday around town. Didn't quite manage 3 liters of water, but came close. I will take another long walk today, the weather is very nice right now! Thinking that my husband and I will also head to the archery range!
12/04 222.4 Took a 45 min walk in town. Went to the archery range with my husband. Did some shopping for him and visited the inlaws. Didn't get enough water, only about a little over a liter, and ate poorly all day. Still, was under calories so I will take it!

11/29 - 243.6 - My routine has been all kinds of out of whack the past few weeks. Today should be the return to normal, so I'm planning on getting back to my exercise and starting to eat better. I always draw such a hard line for myself and if I feel like I'm crossing it, then I just lose all self-control and go way overboard. Something I definitely need to work on!
11/30 - 243.4 - Meh. Trying to get myself together.
12/1 - 244.8 - Another day that was pretty good and then when I got home to the husband and kids, all progress was destroyed.
12/2 - 241.8 - I didn't eat well, but I got 12k steps and didn't have any late night snacks. I'm focusing on getting exercise for now, will work on food choices once I have that under control. But, yay progress!
12/3 - 243.4 - I spent 5+ hours baking Christmas cookies. Didn't track everything I ate and didn't get my exercise in. By the time I was finished, I was exhausted. Today will be better.
12/4 - 241.4 - Finally starting to turn it back around. Yesterday, I stayed within my calories, didn't snack at night, got my 10k steps and started running again. I decided I needed to start the C25K program again, so I got to that last night. I think when I was doing it last time, my foot pain was caused by not resting enough in between runs (I would do runs every day or two a day). This time I'm going to follow the plan exactly, even if I feel like I can do more. I don't want to endure that foot pain again!

I've decided that I am going to eat at maintenance/refeed for 2/7 days a week, which is why I am going to start using my average weight. I 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 I'm hoping to alleviate potential emotional stress of constantly being in a deficit.
Day/Weight/Comment
11/29--222.2 Still bouncing up and down. Need to mentally stick with it and not let the number on the scale derail my efforts.
11/30--221.1 Went out after work and had a couple of drinks, which I rarely ever do. Got home and fell asleep at 7 without eating any dinner. Feeling a little foggy this morning, I don't expect to get much done at work today.
12/01--222.6 My manager's retirement lunch was yesterday, so between extra sodium from lunch and the fact that I barely drank anything yesterday, this bump in weight was totally expected.
12/02--221.5 Up and down. Getting back to plan. Eating at maintenance today. Going hiking today.
12/03--223.5 Ate at maintenance yesterday. Going to kettlebell today.
12/04--223.6 Ate at maintenance yesterday.

11/29 173.8 Woo, day one! off to a great start with ditching some of this (water?) weight! I'm pretty hungry today but trying to drink extra water..
11/30 174.0 hormones are still acting wacky.. can we get on with it or what. I went over my calories, but avoided added sugar. Just had some extra protein bc I was so hungry all day
12/01 174.8 why
12/02 174.6 ok, I've about had enough of all this. At some point it has to give right? Plan for today: drink 20 oz of water before each meal. Stick to my eating plan: write it then bite it, weigh and measure.
12/03 174.4 Stayed under my calories.. Need to drink more water probably.
12/04 175.2 so yeah, this round is not going well either. Solid gain I don't have any challenging social obligations so this week should be easy food wise. Planning on going back to the tried and true meals to get back on a solid track. Just hoping for a whoosh soon.

Back for another round. I haven't ever set a number goal since I started these 10-day challenges, but to keep me in check, I am hoping reach 160 this round. Ultimate goal is to be in the 150s going into the New Year!
Now that I have just jinxed myself, let's see how this round goes! Seriously, if I can just say no to salty snacks and wine during that after-work/pre-dinner time, I might do okay.

11/29: 161.5 Got my workout in, dog walk, water, and stayed around 1300 cal. I was hungry, though. Had a few cookies last night. I always want a little sweet something after dinner. I boiled some eggs this morning and am going to bake chicken for dinner and leftovers. Need more protein in my diet.
11/30: 161.8 I had lunch out, take out for dinner, AND a chai tea in the afternoon. More calories than my body is used to, but I managed my portions and still dragged myself to the gym for a run. I whine all the way there, but I work out for the feeling after, which never disappoints!
12/1: 162 After such a big drop, thinking this is normal, but there has been some added work stress and processed food this week. Yesterday I had two commitments after work and could not get my exercise in. Back to it today.
12/2: 160.4 Surprised at this, but now that it's there, it's motivation for me to do well today to see what happens tomorrrow...
12/3: 159.9 Got back to exercise after two days off, and did lots of housecleaning yesterday.
12/4: 160 Feeling in control at the moment. About to head into work where challenges await this week. Up against a big deadline and trying to get people to move faster... makes me want to eat the entire loaf of lemon bread I made last night. Knowing this, I have already wrapped one of the loaves and put it in the freezer!8 -

12/01 262.2 Ugh!!! Chinese food!!! Today I will drink all the water!!!!
12/02 262.2 I'll count this as a win. Spent an evening out for my husbands company party and TOM arrived. Definitely a win in my books
12/03 262.6 I didn't eat too much and I participated in a Santa 5k with a finish time if 50:12. I didn't drink nearly enough water, maybe thats why the gain??? TOM could be responsible too?? Maybe a delayed loss because I was surprised I had stayed the same on 12/1 and 12/2? I guess I just keep going and watch and see.
12/04 265.2 Holy Gain!!! I have no idea what happened there. I haven't eaten too much and did not consume too much salt. Hoping just a wacky TOM weigh in??? Hoping for a better # tomorrow!

@nikki062181 I had a weepy day yesterday, too. It was my mom’s and a friend’s birthday. Mom has been gone almost 25 years and Karyn almost 4. The weepy days hit less often but we learn to cope when they come. Giving you virtual {{{{{HUGS}}}}}
@HeatherNichole1115 My personal experience is that it can take up to 3 days for food choices to be reflected on the scale. I suspect your increase is a combination of Chinese and the company party. Hang in there, stick to your plan and it should equalize.

12/03 - - - - Oops! Had an early walk date with a friend and was out the door before I remembered.
12/04 - 151.2 - and there it is! Yay!! My goal of at least maintaining during the holidays seems to be working. Just have to continue to be thoughtful about it all.

Age 60, 5'4" [lost 1/2" somewhere, not the measurement I wanted to lose]
SW 195 [joined MFP Nov 2015, lost 9.5# & got serious Jan 2017]
1st Goal 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
2nd Goal 145 = normal BMI
UGW Range 140 - 145
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. Previous round EW 162.0 LW 162.0R20 SW 166.0 10/20/17 (my round 1)
R20 EW 166.5 LW 164.5
R21 EW 164.0 LW 163.0
R22 EW 162.0 LW 162.0
R23 EW 162.0 LW 162.0 = included parade day & Thanksgiving, no food/drink loggedRound 23 (previous round)
11/19: 165.0 Expected jump from parade day. Staged holiday parade in a.m. Gave myself day off from logging & to imbibe / eat whatever I wanted. Drank adult beverages, ate restaurant meal and treats at home. Totally worth it! Walked dog 2.83 miles in afternoon. Fitbit 14,794 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours and 19 floors.
11/20: 163.5 Net calories red 18, sodium red 647 (ack) but sugar green (yay), 12c water. Walked dog 3.26 miles. Fitbit 13,815 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 29 floors.

11/24: 162.5 Weight is big surprise day after Thanksgiving. A day off from logging adult beverages & food for me, and ate what I loved (just not as much), limited wine to one glass. Felt absolutely stuffed after dinner, can't eat like I used to, which is an excellent thing. Ate very small pieces of pie (couldn't resist apple & pumpkin) later for dessert and no supper, just ate hard boiled egg for late evening snack. As planned, walked dog 3 miles before travels (had 5 1/2 hours round trip in car) & drank plenty of water = 14c. Fitbit 10,102 steps, 250+ steps 5/14 hours (yikes, that was sedentary) & 5 floors.

11/26: 164.5 Gave in to way too many Cheetos as evening snack w/ hubby & net calories / sodium very red. Non-dog walk day, lazy Sat. & movie date w/ hubby, felt good to have an easy day. Fitbit 3,851 steps (ack!), 250+ steps 7/14 hours, 6 floors & 10c water. Still, very happy to stay under 165, there is no target date.

11/29: 161.5 Walked dog 3.09 miles before work. Fitbit 17,682 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom) hours & 36 floors. 14c water / not sure about net calories, had to guestimate for wine tasting and appetizers sampled at spa open house, totally worth it.
11/30: 162.0 Happy hour w/ 1 pint beer & dinner at Mexican restaurant / net calories -810 (guestimated) and sodium sky high / 15c water. Walked dog 3.07 miles before work. Fitbit 13,444 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 38 floors.

This will be another challenging round. I had surgery (cosmetic) on the 29th, and spending the next week recovering on oxycodone. I’m not allowed to do any strenuous exercise for a week, doctors orders. I'll have to be extra clean with my diet to compensate. Looking forward to staying 100% compliant during my recovery. No alcohol. Consistency is key.

R24 * Start = 140.0
11/29 - 140.0 - up a squidge, got ambushed by work on an already busy day yesterday: got stressed, no workout, ate 600 extra calories ABOVE MAINTENANCE at the end of the day. Working on being really sensible and sneaking in some extra calorie burning (stairs at work!) today.
11/30 - 139.4 - another tough day yesterday. No workout, to bed early, planning to get my mojo back on today.
12/1 - 138.6 - lowest in over a year! Under calories yesterday and 40 minute workout, elliptical plus stairclimber. Sweating helps my emotional state SO MUCH.

12/3 - 138.2 - yesterday under calories, ran 30 minutes, stairclimber. Still dehydrated, working on it.

Jan 1 2017 226... I'm 5'6"
Started R6 @ 177.1
First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ✔️
Next Goal: Hit a healthy BMI 154.4'ish... Hit it once, now to make it solid!!
End of R23 155.4
11/29 - 155.4 ... (16,300 steps) Slept well, packed my lunch, but not sure what dinner plans will be.
11/30 - 154.5 ... (14.790 steps) So my Grandmother passed away this morning, she was almost 95. I remember her laugh the most, she was always so happy to see us, always in a good mood. She had dementia the last 10 years or so and her quality of life wasn't very good lately. I hadn't seen her in some time, but would often think of her. I will miss her.... I love you Grandma xoxo.
12/1 - 156.5... Too many sweets with tea and a little stress. Not really worried.
12/2 - 157.7
12/3 - 160.7
12/4 - 160.3 ... Yesterday I did my first ever 5k race. I ran it in 36:49, I'm pretty happy with that number as I kinda stopped training for the run. It's a fun run called the Cinnamon Bun Fun Run and they give you a Cinnamon bun after the race, So good. I shared it with SO, who loves them (and me). I ate over cals for the last few days due to Grandma and wanted to give my body a few extras for the race. SO leaves for work in a couple days, I'll be better at cutting then. Need to see those 5's again.

Day/Weight/Comment
R24 ~ Start :: 182.6
11/29 :: 182.6 - Need to focus on drinking more water today and not succumbing to all the things people keep bringing into the office
11/30 :: 182.1 - Drank more water yesterday than I have been lately which felt good. Skipped my usual frou-frou coffee this morning from Starbucks and surprisingly don't feel "deprived" which is a major victory for me. Gotta keep this up!
12/01 :: No Scale - Traveling for job interview. Hoping to stay on track but I tend to make bad choices when I'm traveling...
12/02 :: Didn't Weigh - Bit of a rough morning. Ate very crappily yesterday and really feel it this morning. Let's see if I can get back on track today
12/03 :: Didn't Weigh - Could have weighed this morning but chose not to, pretty sure it was because I'm scared of what it's going to tell me... Doesn't help that we finally got a stand mixer and the husband decided he wanted to make chocolate chip cookies...
12/04 :: 184.3 - UGH... yep, pretty much what I thought. Back to work today though so the schedule should help this week... Hoping I can get closer to where I started by the end of this round.

]Greetings wonderful people!! Here we all are again! Welcome new friends...you're going to love it here, it's an awesome group, I wouldn't be where I am with my fitness goals without it.
SW - 182.4 - March 2017
GW - SMASHED it in October and now I'm working on maintaining under 145
11/28 - 146.2 - I had a major sodium and muscle repair water weight jump to end round 23...rolling 7day average from my Garmin app was 143.5
Day/Weight/Comment
11/29 - 144.0 - Coming back down. Ate and hydrated well yesterday but was still really tight in my legs from that brutal workout on the weekend. Finally feeling back to normal today so might see how the trails in the bluffs are after this warm snap and take the dog for a run this morning.
11/30 - 142.8 - And it's back where it should be. So crazy how the scale weight can fluctuate so much when all I did was change how much sodium I consumed and did too many lunges.
12/01 - 141.2 - I keep settling back here even though I'm not trying to get this low. Ate around maintenance yesterday...or so I thought...pizza and beer helped get the kcals up.
12/02 - 142.8 - back at this number...that's ok!
12/03 - 143.2 - didn't get much water in yesterday.
12/04 - 143.8 - indulged a little bit over the weekend...back on track today

Still faking it. But I am here.
11/29 - 220.7 - Just a special thank you to those of you who have taken the time to send me a message with your encouragement, personal stories and support. I appreciate it and I will get back to each of you, I promise! I also appreciate and thank those who have sent me private mindful support with your thoughts, I have heard those words too and am so grateful! Such a wonderful group who rallies when we all need it!
11/30 - 220.9 - Bought an elliptical yesterday! Woohoo!
12/01 - 221.8 - Feeling the fire of a reboot in this last month of the 2017 season. Will be hunkering down in the next 30 days to jump start the new year with motivation and success behind me. With holidays approaching and temptation lurking, I have to make those conscious decisions and find my determination again.
12/02 - Woke up to the most pain in my right (also dominant) arm/across the top of my chest and went to emerg. They think I pulled something but otherwise x-Rays ok. In the meantime I am in constant pain.
12/03 - Recovering and trying to get stuff done. It's crazy how so many movements use a variety of mussels that criss cross around the body. Moving slllloooowww.
12/04 - 225.1 - I guess this is what happens when you become a sloth...
