Day/Weight/Comment

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.
1/15= no scales today, but we are home tonight, so I’ll be weighing in tomorrow morning!
1/16= 170.6 WooHoo! Headed to the gym before the snow arrives. Really need to do a little shopping for work outfits that FIT!

back for round 28...
started at 150 LBS. on Dec. 1st --Goal Weight: 115 lbs.
Round 26-146 to 143
Round 27-141LBS.
Round 28-138 LBS.

01/08 -138
01/09 -138
01/10 -137
01/11 -139--I ate dinner later than usual and then about 830-9pm had an Atkins bar. I was under calories, but not going to eat after 6 anymore...new habit to be formed. I was disappointed in gaining 2 lbs...oh well, I am sure it will come back off within a few days.
01/12 -138
01/13 -137-worked hard for this
01/14 -137- I would just love to get to 135 by the end of this 10 days...
01/15 -138-Had Atkin's bars 1 1/2 after 8pm.
01/16 -138 Well, this is discouraging. I was way under calories and I exercised quite a bit. .That is it...NO MORE FOOD after 6 PM....This is the only thing that I can see. I had an Atkin's shake after 830pm...only 100 calories. That is it...NO MORE FOOD after 6 PM....Guess I will have to work on that now. LOL!!
01/17 -

Plan to go into the next round and keep trying.
1/8….163
1/9….164
1/10….163
1/11….162
1/12…..162….I’m getting nowhere…..I obviously need to change something. I wish we had options of organized exercises where I live. I know I need to get consistent with what I do at home but my options are limited also.
1/13…
1/14……
1/15…..165….so discouraged. Kept 10 pounds off for nearly 1 year and I have now gained ½ of it back. I didn’t think I had changed my eating habits recently but obviously I must have. I hope that at least some of this is water weight, but time will tell. I also saw that my last post that was a couple days ago was for today. I wish I was at 162 today.
1/16 …..164….guess it wasn’t water weight as I was hoping.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 216.3 It's my birthday!! Hoping to not over indulge too much, but I know there will be some! My mother wants to take me to lunch and my husband and son want to go out to dinner, so will need to make good choices today. Or not, and not beat myself up about it tomorrow!
1/9 217.8 Yep, I knew it! So much sodium! And other not so good things, like cupcakes. Time to drink lots of water and Exercise!
1/10 217.8 Ok, time to get my act together! Water was good yesterday, but food choices were still bad! New day, back to making good food choices! I've got this!
1/11 217.8 Still working on it, did ok with my water and got some exercise in yesterday. Just need to continue with making good choices and exercising.
1/12 216.9 Ok, so I have to be honest, I weighed myself 3 different times and got three different numbers. I went with the middle number for recording proposes.
1/13 216.9 This was the one and only number that came up this morning. I'm still up from the start of this challenge, but only by 0.6, so not upset by that, especially since my eating has not been the best. And there are still four days to go!
1/14 216.9 Ate better, did a bit of exercise, but need to drink more water. Today is a new day.
1/15 216.9 Family get-together yesterday, could have eaten better, for sure. Also did not get my water in! I will do better today.
1/16 216.9 This cold weather is killing me! All I want to do is curl up and read! Not to mention my sleep has been really bad the last two nights. Needless to say my motivation is low. I'm trying to be kind with myself and remind myself that you can come back from a 0.6 gain.

1/9 - 184.4....Well that's decent!
1/10 - 185.0....To be expected after my TOPS weigh in (I did lose 2lbs, so all is good)
1/11 - 183.0....Sick, sick, sick. I have the Flu. No vomiting, just chills & aches (& coughing)
1/12 - 183.4...Still sick, but feeling better. Achy & coughing.
1/13 - 184.6....still sick
1/14 - 184.2.....This is really kicking me in the butt. Day 4 and still sick.
1/15 - 183.6....That was a rough weekend. Just a phlegmy cough now. Staying home one more day.
1/16 - 181.4...Being sick certainly has its rewards. I'm eating, just not as much or as often. Hope I can hang on.
1/17 -

It won't be easy, but it will be worth it!

My ultimate goal is 170lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

This is my first round!
I started a yoga program, it’s about 20mins daily.. It is not something big or difficult, but it reminds me I need to move more!

Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 - 177 - over 200cals yesterday, 8 glasses of water, 20mins yoga.. a good day overall, but with a gain..
1/9 - 177.9 – under cals, 10 glasses of water, 20mins yoga.. definitely wrong direction, but since I count everything I guess I just have to be patient.. I bought a new scale so let’s see what ll happen tomorrow!
1/10 - 177.7 - so my new scale was gentle with me.. cals on point, water on point, yoga on point.. keep going..
1/11 - 177 - Happy about that! Although I really want to see 175 again..
1/12 - 175.7 - Yay!! I keep thinking how frustrated I would be if I didn’t weigh in daily.. I d see a 0.2 drop in 5 days.. but now I m over the moon!
1/13 - 175 - I’ll have 1-2 drinks tonight, I’ll try to fit it to my calorie goal, but I don’t know what to expect tomorrow!
1/14 - 174.4 - I love this number! Did well yesterday, just a glass of white wine, but didn’t get enough sleep and I feel dehydrated ..
1/15 - 173.9 - another drop! I made good food choices yesterday..
1/16 - 174.8 - oh well it was gonna happen one of these days.. under cals, way over sodium..
