I'm getting a bit frustrated. I've cut my carbs back to 20-30% and calories to 1400-1500, and I'm walking 30-60 min/day. No idea why it's so slow, other than I was 145-150 for years way back when.

Are you getting closer to your ideal body weight?

That depends on whose idea of ideal I use, but I would be giddy with 135 and happy with 140, so yes, I'm close. I'm sure that's part of it, but I thought almost a year of eating more calories to reset my metabolism would make these last 10 or so pounds less grueling. Sigh. Otoh, it beats gaining!

Lol. Now that is true. There are a lot of ideas about ideal body weight. For me, I am going off what Dr.'s think according to your height. My ideal weight is 98 - 129 lbs. I am looking to getting to 125. I've noticed when I got closer to the 50% mark of my weight loss journey, I've really slowed down. It takes about 2 weeks for me to lose a half a pound. Maybe it's doing the same for you?

R27: 163
GW: 162
UGW: 125

12/29: 163 I really pushed the fluids again and stuck to my healthy foods. I also believe that I'm getting sick.
12/30: 162.6 I'm officially over halfway to my goal. Woot!
12/31: 162.6 Maintaining...let's hope I have will power tonight and stay the course. In fact, I know I can.
01/01: 160.8

Mind blown! I have been pushing fluids for several days. I am going to try to keep doing so. It is also tradition in my house to make greasy, scrumptious, finger foods to ring in the New Years. I did just that, but for me, I had the will power to skip it and make something healthy for me. I'm glad I did because it paid off! Happy New Years everyone! I'm hoping it's an amazing for each of you.
01/02: 162.2 Well, I am back up again on this rollercoaster ride. I spent the afternoon with my brother's family and my own watching Jumanji. Then, we grabbed a bite to eat. I had a late meal, and I know it had quite a bit of sodium. Here is to pushing fluids to get that number to go back down. I had a good day though regardless of that #.
01/03: 162.2 If I can lose 2 more oz. and keep it off, I met my goal weight for this round. I have ALWAYS had a hard time losing the closer I get to switching to a new number. I had a good day yesterday. My oldest son did great at being selfless yesterday for his little brother. He gave up xboxing with a friend to Xbox with his little brother. That's a big thing for a teen to do that for a 9-year-old. It just made my day.
01/04: 162.2 I'm really hoping these last 2 oz come off soon. I did bike yesterday for 20 minutes, and I did drink about 60 oz of fluid. I'm surprised I'm not floating away. Lol
01/05: 161.8 I biked again yesterday and for 25 minutes. I listened to some music and then the first 4 chapters of Genesis while I biked. I made healthy choices and continued to push the fluids like I have been.

@consumone

Yes, you absolutely will. It's the festive season, which is not the best time for those of us looking to lose weight and still enjoy some of life's wonderful indulgences with our family and friends. Stick with it, don't get disheartened because it works. You know it works because you've lost that first 12lb. You've got this!

R27 (14th Round for me)

So the last round was a real kick in the teeth. I never thought I'd see those numbers again. The New Year is right around the corner though and I have my will power back so I know I'll do well eventually. The fact that I'm posting on here and being honest is a huge deal. I used to always hide my defeats. It's nice to be able to show them and be accountable and still remain determined. I broke a rib (no exercise allowed for 6 weeks!) and I've got TOM visiting this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29: 197.0 I've gained exactly 10 lbs back over this holiday season. Oh well at least it's not 10 added on to what I was when I started! I'll lose it again. TOM is also skewing the results by a pound or two. Means I prob won't see my goal by Jan 1, but I'm feeling good about the rest of January!
12/30: 196.8
12/31: 195.6
1/1: 197.6
1/2: 197.4 Holiday indulgence is still catching up with me.
1/3: 197.8 WHY?!?!?!?
1/4: 197.0 So I took your advice and drank lots of water yesterday and it seems to have helped. I'll try again today.
1/5 - 194.8 Yay! Bloating FINALLY gone. Now I need to get rid of the actual weight!

Good morning Fit Fam!

I will also be jumping back in (those of you who know me...you get it) as this is my first day back to work after the holidays. I did well for the last week bring out of routine and balancing choices and desires...most of the time, the scale tipped the desires but hey - somehow it balanced out.

I have to do this. <hikes up her pants as high as they can go> Here we go!

mrs_sutsie · January 2018

I'm in for my sixth round

Fifth round was a write off to be honest, but had a great few days away in Amsterdam a great Christmas, daughters birthday and still got New Years to go - but need to start back somewhere!

Round 22 start weight - 151.40
Round 23 start weight - 145.80
Round 24 start weight - 147.60
Round 25 start weight - 141.60
Round 26 start weight - 141.90
Round 27 start weight - 146.20

Loss to date - 5.2 lbs

12/29 - 146.20. Oops!!!! Went to the gym for an hours PT today, drinking plenty of water but have loads of goodies in the house as my daughters 10th birthday party disco dome and sleepover so going to try hard to resist.....

12/30 - Didn't weigh in - house full of 10 years old this morning post sleepover so by the time I remembered I had already eaten! Carb laden dinner last night though (turkey risotto) so probably wouldn't have been good reading! Ache a lot from gym session yesterday - only been off a week! Good food day planned today though and aiming to get back to drinking plenty of water .......

12/31 - 146.20 - so stayed the same ho hum..... Not been too off track but did eat some of my daughters birthday cake and need to get back to eating more fibre and drinking more water to get things moving I think as still feel so bloated! Out tonight to a friends for New Years Eve which will involve all round a table talking, drinking and knowing my friend way too much bad food so going to try and resist the worst of it ....

01/01 - 147.50 - not surprised as out until 5am at friends for New Year so still had a belly full of food at weigh in this morning! did go for a walk yesterday afternoon to ensure I made my 10,000 steps for the day though

New Year and off we go. A good food day planned

01/02 - 145.9 - 1.6lbs down

Back to work & school day - boo!!! But weight dropped after sensible day yesterday and a good day planned - water intake is back up and off to the gym tonight.

01/03 - 143.70 - wow 2.2lbs down overnight! But then I drank loads yesterday, went to the loo I don't know how many times and also had a tough HiiT session at the gym last night followed a walk home the long way to get my steps up to 10,000+. One thing I have learned from the daily weighing is how much my weight can vary just from even one evening of "over indulgence" and not tracking / counting let alone the Christmas period and how long it can take to go back down. But happy so far

Just need to stay on track and keep drinking ......

01/04 -143lbs and another half a pound gone. Always a good weight loss week first week back after a holiday but going to enjoy it while it lasts as whatevers left at the end of the week I guess will pretty much be more true weight put on. Day 5 of making my 10,000+ steps yesterday too. So all good - at work and food all planned for the day and a PT gym session tonight so hopeful for tomorrows weigh in

01/05 - 143.2lbs so 0.2lbs on but I did have a heavier carb dinner last night than usual (hubby did low fat home made burgers with jacket wedges - lush!) - although still in calorie allowance so not bothered with +0.20. At the gym last night too and did my 10000+ steps. Off to Butlins in a bit so my last post for the round but intending to stay on track. There is usually so much food there - just need to make sure I choose wisely and don't get tempted ..... wish me luck! Already done my 10,000 steps for today too so off to a good start!

01/06 - Away for weekend - taking my Brownies to Butlins for the weekend so will need to try and choose wisely from the food that is on offer (all canteen style food!!) and make sure I keep up water intake. Hoping for a reasonable amount of walking and also we'll be going swimming one day but unable to weigh again until Monday morning - the start of round 28.
01/07 - Away at Butlins - unable to weigh

Round 27:
Ultimate goal weight is 105 lbs (I am a very slow loser so this may take all of 2018)

12/29 107.4
12/30 108.4 too many Calories
12/31 108.4 too many Calories so can't lose any weight

1/1 107.6 better - hungry

1/2 107.4 okay, back to the start. I have not met my Calorie restriction goal yet but have increased my exercise. I will be happy if I maintain 107.4 lbs by the end of this round. My goal is <106.9 by the end of January. I would like to request that the 0.5 lbs comes directly from my belly

1/3 108.8 - whoa!

1/4 108.1 - better. Went to bed hungry but woke up feeling fine. Started lifting heavier weights past week and this typically increases my appetite and I gain weight (not all muscle/water either). Am curious to see what my weight will do if I keep my Calorie Restriction for the next 3 days and continue to lift. Especially changes in belly fat

1/5 107.3

1600 Calories while exercising more aggressively may be the adjustment needed to manage hunger. current kcal goal is set to 1500 per day. I have to sneak up on weight loss at this point.

@SheilaBoneham If you have cut grain and sugar from your diet, your body may hold on to weight to heal itself from the inside out. Don’t give up. It’s a process. If you look at my spoiler you will see my average losses have been quite low.

@hedyk One of our cats developed diabetes. She drank lots of water and ate a lot and kept getting thinner. Hyperthyroidism causes weight loss, hypothyroidism causes weight gain.

@archersport when is your due date?

@TerriRichardson112 I love your little dancers. They made me smile!

For those who FORGET to weigh, can you put you scale in a location that makes it impossible to forget? If I were at home, I would post a pic of the bathroom I use in the morning.

12/29 146.5 Well, it’s been a while since I had an up bump so I’m okay with it. We are finally leaving on our Christmas trip to Oklahoma.
12/30 Traveling - no scale - this will mess with my system so I expect to be up tomorrow on DD#1’s house. This too shall pass!
12/31 146.0 At DD#1’s house for overdue Christmas celebration tomorrow and her birthday on the 4th. Her house is NOT Keto friendly! I am hoping to expose her to this WOE because she told me she needs to do “something.”
1/1 144.5 HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I was short on calories and all three macros yesterday. I was just not hungry. My body is still on Pacific time even though we are in Central. At about 10PM I had one slice of Keto bread with 1T natural PB. We watched a movie and went to bed around 1AM.

Round 26 (previous round)
12/19: 158.0 Battling a cold, workouts on hold. At least Christmas decorations are almost done. Net calories red (barely), sodium green, fiber 20g & net sugar zero - how did that happen? 18c water. Fitbit 10,525 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 39 floors.
12/20: 158.0 Net calories red, sodium green, sugar red mostly from fruit, fiber 20g, and 16c water / trying to flush my cold away. Workplace snowshoe hike at lunchtime / 0.42 miles. Fitbit 11,013 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 32 floors.
12/21: 158.0 Little surprised / workplace Xmas party at lunch yesterday, then went overboard with Christmas peanut M&Ms while decorating at home. Still no workouts due to busy-ness and my cold. Fitbit 8,612 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 31 floors. Total guess for calories (did quick log instead of guestimating every bite) & 16c water.
12/22: 157.5 Day off from work, finished cleaning & decorating. Gave in to leftover pizza hubby brought home, but limited myself to two slices. 14c water. Fitbit 7,696 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 15 floors.
12/23: 157.5 Vacation/holiday, slept in, round trip by car 2 1/2 hours & niece's Christmas concert = sedentary afternoon. Wrapped presents in evening. Fitbit 8,753 steps, 250+ steps 8/14 hours & 16 floors. 12c water.
12/24: 157.5 Little surprised I'm maintaining, have been getting into Christmas candy since 12/22. Stopped logging food last night after supper & net calories red. But keeping active with Christmas preparations. No "workouts" this week except shoveling snow and snowshoeing. Fitbit 7,703 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 25 floors. 10c water.
12/25: 158.0 Christmas / dinner w/ extended family / not logging food or beverages / Merry Christmas friends!
12/26: 159.5 Yesterday was a day filled with faith, family, fun, food & adult beverages. Totally worth it! Now, to freeze some of the goodies so we don't eat them all up this week.
12/27: 160.0 Almost forgot to update...why are some habits so easy to break & forget? W-I not a surprise, have been enjoying Christmas goodies for several days & no treadmill since 12/15 oh my! Back at work, will get back to treadmill this week, I promise.
12/28: 161.0 Happy hour with former colleagues / enjoyed adult beverage & dinner / net calories red even before I got into pistachios for evening snack...ack!!! 13c water. Fitbit 7,873 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 26 floors. Considering I'm 3# up during the week of Christmas, not so bad. Used to be lots worse in past years.

12/29: 159.5 Net calories red & 12c water. Fitbit 9,124 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 34 floors. Getting back into my groove.

12/31: 161.0 Got into leftover Christmas goodies. 12c water. Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 50:31. Fitbit 12,434 steps, 250+ steps 914 hours & 11 floors.
01/01: 162.5 Expected: New Year's Eve splurged with hubby on special treats all evening long and did not log food or beverages. I'm sure net calories were horrendously red. Totally worth it!

And now it's out of my system.

01/02: 163.0 Very sedentary day: car round trip 3 1/2 hours & niece's bday party, plus back hurting. Net calories red & 10c water.
01/03: 162.0 No treadmill since lower back still hurting. Net calories red 18, sodium & sugar both green, 14c water. Fitbit 7,577 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 30 floors.
01/04: 161.5 Tried an easy walk on treadmill 2 miles / 37:42, then my back stiffened up again. Reminder to self: don't overdo. Net calories, sodium & sugar (fresh orange juice & Activia yogurt) red but not horrible. 14c water. Fitbit 12,659 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 35 floors.
01/05: 159.5 Little surprised, it was food day at work for coworker with Christmas bday, but I was very picky about what I ate & had very small portions, ate healthy rest of day. Guestimated & logged best I could. 13c water (not sure, kinda lost count). Not doing treadmill until my back doesn't twinge when I wake up, almost there! Fitbit 8,453 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 29 floors.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/29 218.3 Mom is out of the hospital, thank goodness, and is scheduling an appointment with her Mayo drs. I'm glad to not have gained any weight these last 10 days. I still have New Year's Eve and my birthday to get through! I can do this!
12/30 218.3 It's bitterly cold here, and I'm feeling really run down. Hoping to pick it up today and get all my water in, as well as some exercise.
12/31 218.3 Feeling a little less run down today, going to get in some cardio today and keep drinking lots of water. New Year's Eve! Luckily I'm celebrating with my 14 year old so I won't be drinking!
1/1 218.3 Happy New Year! Seven days until I turn 37! I usually view my birthday as my new year start. This year I'm going to reach my initial weight loss goal of being under 200 and maintaining. To that end, I will keep pushing the water and making smart food choices!
1/2 216.5 Happy New Year to me! Let's make it stick! I need to keep pushing the water, and since I didn't get exercise yesterday, I need to do some today.
1/3 218.0 Well, that didn't last long. Still, a bit of a loss so I will take it. Any loss is a win! Plan to do a cardio workout and drink lots of water today!
1/4 217.6 Inching back down! Even if I stay here, I would be happy! Pushing water, and going to do my cardio today. Three days left, let's see where I can end!
1/5 217.6 Happy to see that I stayed here, hoping to push it just a bit more for the end of these ten days. It's my birthday on the 8th!

1/4 - 135.4 - I seem to like this number. At least got a walk yesterday at lunch hour, up to maintenance on calories (unplanned

) Today: dental work woo hoo!

1/5 - 133.4 - Whoosh! was not expecting that. Maybe the crown I had replaced yesterday was quite heavy? Today back to working out!

CaliMomTeach · January 2018

am going to jump in mid-challenge if that is o.k. I did these 10 day challenges for a while last spring, but really let myself go throughout the fall, and even more since Thanksgiving. I have started to eat lots of "crap" again and stopped logging. As a result, I am currently just under 149 pounds, from a low of 137 last April. I started at 193 in July of 2016. I'd like to get back down to 140 in the next 2 months. I joined a gym in late November, but have not been going. I am committing to change to be healthier, in both the amount and quality of food I eat, and in getting regular exercise.

12/31. 174.8

no party plans which should help with food temptation. We’ll see who wins out !

or

2018 Happy New Year!
1/1 175.8

glad to have 6 more days to improve.
1/2 175

1/3. 174.8

1/4 174.8 saw that if i continue eating this way, in 5 weeks I wont be in the 160’s, so I really need to eat only 1200 calories and walk more.

1/5 didnt weigh— this week has shown me “good intentions” wont get me to my goal. I may have to accept that round 27 ( my first round here) wont be the loss I “hoped” for. I cant do the same next round.

. I still have 2 more days... i’ll do my best.

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 twice, now to make it solid!!
Hold steady aroung 159 through December.

End of R26 162.5

12/29 - 162.4 ... Today is my 'Healthy Me' Day!! A year ago today I DECIDED to change up my life and I think I have pretty much done it. I still need to lose this Christmas extra and about 5/10 more lbs, but I am feeling great about myself. I enjoy this group and (not including the 'extra') have lost over 20lbs since becoming a part of it. My biggest lessons are (1) my daily weigh-ins aren't just fat they can be due to water/sodium/washroom/stress. (2) Small changes like walking every lunch break/taking my lunch to work/planning my meals. (3) Always get back to it, I'm gonna have days where I want to live it up... I just have to get back on track. (4) I don't time my goals, I just work towards them.
12/30 - 160.9
12/31 - 163 ... Hotel scale
1/1 - 163 ... Hotel scale
1/2 - 165.6 ... Some work to do. I feel bloated but SO leaves Sunday so no more dinners and events to attend. I can get back at it and see some 150's again.
1/3 - 164 ... Need to get to the grocery store and plan some meals. I can't believe I'm still so busy.
1/4 - 163.9 ... Getting it together a bit more today, packed my lunch.

1/5 - 163.1 ... Still moving forward. Packed lunch had my lunch break walk and SO and I went out again last night.
