Day/Weight/Comment:
01/28: (no weight) - So I went out and got a bit bevved on Saturday so spent most of Sunday hungover hugging the sofa, I still ate within my calories but I didn't manage to drag myself onto the scale haha.
01/29: 122.1kg/269.2lbs - Yeah I'll take this, imagine there is some beer weight still floating around in me. Back to the gym today and ready to smash this week again. Aiming for another 2/3lbs loss however my scales are being very indecisive, may have to look at investing in a new one.
01/30: 120.7kg/266.1lbs - YESSS, my lowest weight in a long time. Starting to wear shirts I haven't in a long time, it's a great feeling. Meal preps for lunch still going strong with 2/3ltrs of water a day and gym 4 times a week.
01/31: 120.8kg/266.3lbs - I know it's nice seeing a drop but stability is key too, more than happy to stay in the 120s for a few days, I am expecting a big drop soon though. Cardio today, managed to run 5k the last couple of weeks but really want to push myself and get closer to 7.5k and edge my way towards 10k. Onward and *DOWNWARD*.
02/01: 121.0kg/266.7lbs - Forget what I said yesterday, I WANT A DROP PLEASE. I had a late night and skipped cardio as my legs are still sore from Tuesday. Back to the gym tonight and probably another late night as the other half is working late. I know I'm on a loss overall this round but I could really do with the boost of seeing some numbers drop - still dreaming of sub 120kg.
02/02: 121.0kg/266.7lbs - It's not an increase?! Thought I could use today to tell you all a little more about me, I work a sedentary job in York, England. I have always been that heavy kid in school, however I have always been fairly tall so manage to hide it somewhat well. Played a lot of rugby as a kid/teen and rowed a lot at university and these both saw my weight fluctuate massively, I even shifted 50lbs in one summer (3months) which crept back on over the following year. I made it my goal on boxing day (didn't want to wait till 1st of Jan) to try to make a lifestyle change for myself, to help myself become more happy and confident in myself. This is not a diet, a fad or a period of short lived exercise, it is my way of trying to achieve a sustainable and achievable lifestyle.
- Sidenote: Dear body, please drop soon. I'm away this weekend so will not be able to post/weigh in!

Long-term Focus: In the normal range for my age height and build, on maintenance.
Still focused on losing my holiday baggage.
I HAVE the power and determination to do this.
Primary Goal - 160lbs +/- 2lbs. Lose 1lb per round.
to Round 30
This has given me a motivational element of daily accountability.
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.
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!

2nd Round.
MFP SW 210
R29 SW 189.2 EW 186.6
Focused on making good choices for my overall health.
01/28 184.6 Thankful and curious about the sudden drop the last few days. My weight was slowly going down the last couple of weeks, and now BOOM, the loss shows up. I'll be looking for patterns over the next month. I'm thinking it was water retention during TOM.
01/29 184.2 I worked out hard since I knew I couldn't get to the gym today. (Walk/Run intervals and weight training) I'm expecting these losses to slow down any day now, but I'm hoping not to gain back.
01/30 184.4 Ate A LOT of carbs yesterday- gotta get my veggies in today! Feeling good physically and feeling great about making healthier choices consistently over the last month.
01/31 184.2
02/01 185.2 The end of the month is stressful because of work. Didn't eat enough yesterday, didn't work out, and didn't drink much water! Today will be a great day, though!!
02/02 183.6 Still didn't get in all my calories, but I got close. Headed to the gym. Today won't be so busy, so I should be able to get my water in. Cheers to the weekend!

This is one woman that's back for more. Thank you @cyranda63 for continuing to create the rounds and make the group. You've been a HUGE support in my weight loss journey. Now, let's do this! "Your body can stand almost anything. It's your mind you have to convince."
OSW: 202
SW: 161
GW:160
UGW: 125
1/28: 159 3 days of making sure my carbs and sodium stay stay within my goal. 3 days of dropping my one pop that I allow myself everyday and substituting it for hot tea, and I show a loss. A 2 lb loss, which appears to be my WHOOSH! Now let's hope it sticks and continues. Yesterday, I threw a surprise 30th anniversary party for my family. I ate well and within my calories. I even skipped the cake I had made for them. It paid off. "Junk food you've craved for an hour, or the body you've craved for a lifetime. Your decision."
1/29: 159 My nephew turned 7 today. We went to his house to celebrate. I once again chose to skip the dessert. Then again, it was red velvet cake, so it wasn't too hard. That stuff is nasty! "Look in the mirror. That's your competition."
1/30: 158.2 It was a crazy day today. It's National Catholic Schools Week, and it kept me hopping at work. I also took my 14-year-old son out for some 1:1 time to dinner. It was really nice. PLUS I found out my 9-year-old son is Student of the Week. "The best project you'll ever work on is you."
1/31: 158.8 I usually eat dinner by 6 p.m., but I had to work until 7:30 last night. It was family day, and all of us teachers honored our parents and students by cooking them a meal and serving them last night. So, I ended up eating late. Dont like the bump up, but it happens. There is one thing I am learning. "The secret of losing weight is patience."
2/1: 158.2 Let me see 158 before the end of this challenge, PUH-LEASE! I know I met my goal already, but I want to get back to my new low. I'm so close. "Suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of regret."
2/2: 158.6 Whiplash! Lol "Don't stop trying just because you hit a wall. Progress is progress no matter how small."

01/29 - 226.6 lbs. It is becoming easier and easier each day to think of this as my new normal and not a diet.
01/30 - 227.2 lbs. ate my 1500 cal, sodium was at 1400 mg. Guessing it's because I woke up an hour earlier than normal?
01/31 - 227.0 lbs
02/01 - 226.6 lbs. Think my body is finally adjusting to waking up an hour earlier.
02/02 - 226.0 lbs. Arg. It was TOM that made me jump up (didn't even think about that possibility).

5’0” 47yo female. Sw-106 Gw 103.2
Day/Weight/Comment
01/28; 106.0 - My Birthday - Didn't weigh in, had buffet lunch and spent the day riding in the car to/from grandmas. I have my meals planned for 1/29 and this board will help me stay accountable.
01/29: 107.0 - I mean, I didn't want this number, but it is what it is and it reflects what I've been doing. eating too much crap, not focused and just beating myself up mentally. I'm ready for that to change. I want tomorrows number to be better. Surprising enough, last week I had a 104.6 number...so I know this is feasible for this challenge. Goal tomorrow is to be 106.x
1/30: 105.4 - Woosh, there it is. High Fat yesterday, and the scale showed it. I will keep high fat again today as I just loved how it made me feel, satiated and not craving.
1/31: 103.8 - Day 2 of intermittent fasting. Today I did One 4 hour eating window and wow, look at the results. My last meal was finished at 1230pm, so technically, If I'm not hungry, I can maybe make this an entire 24hour fast. I love the number on the scale. I'm in disbelief at how well checking in with this group has made me focus. I honestly expected this weight on day 10 instead of day 4. Macros ; Fat:55% Carb:25% Protein:15%
2/1: 105.2 - Carb day yesterday, arund 130g so, i'm not shocked by this. Its still less then before and gives me motivation to do well today with Keto style eating and keeping carbs to a minimum. #noBarsTodayPeeps
2/2: 105.8 - Still had around 130g carbs yesterday. I really didn't want to get on the scale. Also had chicken tenders with plenty of salt for supper. Trying to get the mind right. At least I'm still working out. I hope (plan) to be more compliant today.9 -

SW - 182.4 - March 2017
original GW - was 145- met this target in October
new GW - 140
I was maintaining a 143ish average nicely up until Christmas and my crazy gift show season in January and things have crept up to about 145. It could be worse so I'm not stressing over it but I know I've lost some fitness over the last month and a half and want to get back in control of things. I will start back into my cardio and strength routine and daily calorie logging this round...I've been a bit slack as of late. I would like to get under 140 slowly over the next couple of months so I won't be to aggressive with my calorie deficit.
1/27 - 145.0 - coming in from round 29 with a rolling 7 day avg of 145.5
01/28 - 144.2 - feeling a bit run down this morning...will get out for a walk with the dog and some housework today...nice to see it under 145 though.
01/29 - 146.4 - Bleh!! Did not eat well yesterday and I can feel the bloat...back to tracking and logging today.
01/30 - 146.2 - took the dog for a 3.5km walk yesterday morning and did a full kettlebell work out after dinner...muscles are a bit tight today...
01/31 - 144.6 - knew this would be down...I was "flushing" the water weight what seemed like every half hour yesterday. Hit the elliptical and did an express kettlebell work out...going to take a break from the weights today and just bundle up and take the dog for a good walk this morning.
02/01 - 145.2 - Meh...a few too many carbs yesterday...
02/02 - 144.6 - back here, having a hard time with the evening snacking this week....need to plan better to make them fit in my targets.

This group challenge has really been helping me through the fluctuations. I had a really bad tendency to get frustrated and think that I'll never get there. Definitely getting stronger so the slow pace is expected. But I have been a bit lazy on my diet. If I want this I'm the only one who can do it for me.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 - 187.6 - Ordering some new clothes to replace worn ones. Hopefully that'll be inspiring.
01/29 - 187.6 - Holding. Though morale is good. Temps are back up and my Tshirts I haven't been wearing are fitting nicer.
01/30 - 187.2 - Training yesterday. Going to climb up our mini mountain today.
01/31 - 187.6 - Mountain did not go, met a friend for lunch instead. Training today.
02/01 - 187.2 - Training was cancelled so I did our mini mountain walk yesterday. Nice weather for it.
