I'm in. I didn't finish the last round because I guess I'm a bum, lol! Just couldn't stay motivated. Hopefully I'm turning a corner. I was actually sick for two weeks, first flu then a bad sinus cold. I just wasn't mentally into doing what I was supposed to do.
Highest weight - 223.5
Round 28 starting weight 169.8
Round 28 goal weight 165
1/8 - 169.8 I guess the only thing that I can say about that is, at least it's not 170.
1/9 - 168.2 Water weight people, water weight. Good encouraging start though so I'll take it.
1/10 - DNW
1/11 - 169.8 No surprise there. I swear I ate like I had a freakin tape worm! SMH! To the gym & water.
1/12 - 169.8 Boo!

R26SW: 265.4
R27SW: 263.5
R28SW: 257.8
1/8 - 1/11 - No weigh-ins! I’m on the road and didn’t bring my scale with me since I only brought a carry-on bag for my flights.
1/12 - 259.9
Happy to be home! I’m bummed about the gain, but I definitely expected it. I’m just glad it wasn’t worse, and I’m technically still in the 250s!
1/13 - 259.0
Moving in the right direction!
1/14 - 257.3
Yay! 1.3 to my next goal (remove 20% of my original starting weight). I’m planning on hitting the gym today. I can feel how close this is!

Hello Everyone! I'm booked solid in the showroom/booth set up for the next 3 weeks so lots of activity, steps and flights of stairs just at work. I find it easier to control my calories on showroom days as I plan all my meals to keep organized...work from home days I fly by the seat of my pants a bit more...so I expect it shouldn't take long to get back to my pre Christmas weight...it's only about 1.5lbs...
SW - 182.4 -March 2017
GW - 145 -reached October 2017
I maintained around 143.5 for about a month before Christmas and that weight felt really good...I will get back there PDQ
1/7 - 144.4 - Coming in from round 27
_____________________________________________________
Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 - 144.6 - at least it stayed under 145...had a few fries with dinner last night and a couple of beers...but put in some time on the elliptical and did my express kettlebell work out.
1/9 - 144.6 - no budge...TOM arrived today so progress may be masked by hormone bloat for a few days
1/10 - 144.6 - My rings felt tight going on today...as long as I can keep from shoving stuff in my face during TOM I should get back down to my 143ish I want to be at after the hormone stuff is gone by the end of the week.
1/11 - 144.4 - down a bit
1/12 - 144.6 - Had an incident with some really good milk chocolate yesterday
1/13 -143.0 - End of TOM whoosh...I knew that number was in there somewhere
1/14- didn't weigh - spent the night at a friends place in the city after girls night...she doesn't have a scale so I didn't do my morning weigh in.

1/8= 173.6 Here we go! Here’s to everyone having success during this round!
1/9= 173.4 Tried a 30-min Express Circuit training at Planet Fitness yesterday for the first time. Also did 40 min of cardio on treadmill and arc trainer. 10k+ steps.
1/10= 173.6 Hoping for a loss tomorrow. Things have slowed down since I’m not riding my bike everyday. Ready for spring!
1/11= 172.0 Hoping to ride my bike today after work. High of around 65 here! Yay!
1/12= 171.8
1/13= no scales available today. Hubby is in the hospital, so probably won’t have one available tomorrow either. Will have to work on making healthy choices in the hospital cafeteria. You’d think they would be easy to find in a hospital, but they absolutely are not! No wonder half the staff here is way overweight.
1/14=172, but that was AFTER I had had coffee, eaten breakfast at the hospital and went home to shower. Hair was wet because I didn’t think about it until after I got out of the shower.

MFP has been great to me in the past, and I'm hoping that it will be great again. I like this idea a lot (10 days at a time), so I'm going to do it.
I've been bouncing up and down in weight most of my life. I got up to 245lbs about 3 years ago (my all-time high). Even though I haven't got anywhere near there since then, I'm well above where I would like to be. I was feeling pretty great (under 200 lbs) until minor knee surgery in September 2016.

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.
12/30: 159.0 Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 51:07. Fitbit 13,675 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 25 floors. Registered for my third Badger State Brewing 10K (3/31).
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 my lower 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.
01/06: 159.0 Another surprise since I binged a little on mixed nuts in evening, but maybe 16c water helped. No treadmill, but lots stairs breaks at work. Fitbit 7,851 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours, 26 floors. Massage in evening did wonders for my lower back.
01/07: 159.0 Finally walked on treadmill again, didn't push & felt great. 3 miles / 54:13. Fitbit 10,574 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours (lazy Sat.) & 29 floors. Net calories & sodium green, sugar red (fresh oj & chocolate peanut butter cup ice cream) & 14c water. Not bad round, considering. Happy to end 1-5-anything.
01/08: 159.5 Net calories, sodium & sugar all red...ack! 14c water. Fitbit 8,010 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 16 floors.
01/09: 159.5 Net calories & sodium green, sugar red (some leftover Christmas goodies) & 15c water. Walked treadmill 3 miles before work / 51:06. Fitbit 15,090 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 41 floors.
01/10: 159.0 Net calories & sugar green (barely for both), sodium red but not horrible & 14c water. Walked treadmill 3 miles before work / 51:53. Fitbit 13,010 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 29 floors.
01/11: 158.5 Happy hour after work and, surprise! Salad appealed...think my body is sick of rich, high cal foods since Christmas. Didn't even change my mind when friends ordered perch plate with french fries, which I love. Enjoyed 1 pint beer. Not sure of log accuracy / net calories red 22 & 15c water. Treadmill 3 miles before work / 50:13. Fitbit 13,015 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom! 3 days in a row!) & 34 floors.
01/12: 158.5 Net calories, sodium & sugar all red...ack! At least fiber was good & 15 c water. Active evening packing up Christmas decorations and nativities collection, still not done by half. Fitbit 11,451 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 38 floors.
01/13: 157.0 Yesterday evening, walked in Frenzy on the Fox 5K (paved trail, plowed & salted) in 47:26 pace 15:19 per mile. Very happy with my time, wore layers of clothes in 10 degrees & NNW 12 mph wind, fun event. Nice change from treadmill. Fitbit 15,158 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 40 floors. Net calories, sodium & sugar red, but not by much, and 17c water.
01/14: 157.5 Hubby and I sampled our way through Sam's Club / fast food for supper, first time in several months. Net calories, sodium & sugar red & 10c water. Non-treadmill day / Fitbit 10,001 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 12 floors. A little Wii bowling for first time in months.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 - loss - didn't make my step, or my water goals but I did make everything I ate today and I'll take it as a plus. Also bonus it's less freezing now
1/9 - loss - busy day forgot to post
1/10 - loss - tried my darndest to get my steps, 500 short. Better 500 short than 5,000. I need to figure out how to get that extra bit when I'm too busy to walk at lunch.
1/11 - loss - I didn't eat the donuts someone brought in to work, it all I got for today but I'll take this small victory
1/12 - loss - the extra walk after work still didn't get me to my step goal. Will try again tomorrow, even if it's -20...well I will at least go for a short walk.
1/13 - loss - I did go for a walk, it was cold but sunny and it was only to the subway so it's not amazing but I did go outside. Sunshine in January is misleading. Kept under my calories so that's good and limited the coffee to only half the pot. Trying to drink less coffee, it's harder than stopping alcohol personally. Fingers crossed for warmer weather!
1/14 - loss - went outside again for a short walk, bought all my groceries and chopped and weighted everything for the week. I'm quite happy with myself, all set for a good week!

New lowest weight! I actually also saw 155.5 on the scale today, too, but I can't quite claim it. After no real progress for a while, I'm getting the beginner bump all over again, I think. One week of getting enough water and fiber, eating less, and back off added sugar and I'm losing some bloat. Had some high sodium food today so it might go up a bit tomorrow but I didn't overeat.
01/09: 158.0
Did fine on food today.
01/10: 156.0
I calculated my body fat% and it's in the healthy range now, though not athletic. I can't say it's definitely accurate, but I've been using the Military Body Fat calculator all during my loss and my bf% has gone down 11% according to this method.
01/11: 156.0
I'm not finding it difficult to stick to my eating plan this week. I'm not eating sugar and not craving it, getting enough protein, veggies, water, and staying in calories. Exercise though, is a different story. I'm not feeling like it at all.
01/12: 156.0
Did pretty perfectly with food and water today. No added sugar for the twelfth day. No exercise though.
01/13: 154.5
I know I'm due for an upward fluctuation but it feels good to see this number, a new low for me. I hope I'm at the point where my top weight, as it goes up and down, is solidly under 160!
01/14: 156.0
Fine with this. Ate what I should today. Today's my birthday but I worked so we'll celebrate tomorrow, and I'm not sure what I'll get. Might overindulge a little.10 -

01/08 - 103.6
- Starting the year off very high! The 3kgs have been confirmed 
I'm not sure I can lose3.6kgs in 10 days, but I'd like to try!
01/09 - 102.6 - OK was back on the program yesterday
01/10 - 101
- WHAAAAT? Now that's a surprise, I'm truly puzzled as I ate over my calories yesterday... I was unstoppable, like a bottomless pit, nothing junky. The only thing I changed was having dinner early, a decision to try to break the frenzy snacking. It seemed to work, but it's really making me wonder about how my body works.
01/11 - 100 on the dot. Stepped on the scale 4 times, it would oscillate between 99.8 and 100 but settle on the latter. This is crazy - I mean literally crazy. I had lunch with a client, I had a nut bar late last night as I was too hungry, ate my regular meals correctly, drank my water. I remember the effort it took for me to get to this weight before and now my body decides to skip all the steps and get straight to business? I'll take it, I just hope it lasts
01/12 - 100.2 - expected! I feel I didn't eat enough fat and too many carbs... just as long as it doesn't go up more with the weekend looming ugh!
01/13 - must have missed a day somewhere!!!
01/14 - 100
- This is going to motivate me to get in the 9s tomorrow
01/15 - 100.2 - It went the other way. Didn't drink my usual amount of water, maybe more carbs that usual but nothing crazy. I need to eat dinner earlier as well

Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 - 12st 7.3 Plan is to drink more water and eat less chocolate this round! Not lost sweet tooth from the festive season yet.
1/9 - 12st 6.8 Was really good yesterday :-)
1/10 - 12st 6.9 I never stick to calories when the inlaws are here (every tues/wed) Im just going to have to cut calories the other days…
1/11 - 12st 6.7 Im definitely going to have a gain tomorrow though. Today is likely dehydration.
1/12 - 12st 6.5 maybe not! Done a lot of walking today so don’t know what will happen tomorrow
1/13 - 12st 5.2 Yey! Even with 2 pizzas. Below calories and a lot of walking.
1/14 - 12st 5.0 Still seem to be losing with 1900 calories.
1/15 - 12st 6.1 Up for no apparent reason
