R31 - starting weight 153.3
Ultimate Goal: 143.5

LCHF, Yoga, Walking and Lifting weights

2/7 :: - 153.3 Great day food wise and exercise wise!

2/8 :: - 153.4 food was pretty much spot on until I bought a giant cookie and devoured it - mind you it was my birthday and my only non-low carb treat and dang it was good! I also got in 13k+ steps and lifted weights! I expect to see my weight pop up in a few days due to water retention!

2/9 :: - 153.4 had a good day! I played around with some low carb baking and it turned out well. In the freezer now to enjoy this upcoming week!

2/10 :: - 153.4 today is bday celebrations with the family at the original pancake house. I will try to be good hehehehe went higher in carbs BUT I didn't order pancakes. Shared an omelet and had toast - sour dough toast with butter and strawberry preserves sooooo good!

2/11 :: - 153.4 today got in some steps trying out some new running shoes in my living room and lifted...I Am SORE !! Well...I was doing well with carbs but I ended up too hungry and when I made a low carb chili I ended up eating some Trader Joe Corn Poppers (which are to die for!), and I bet I ate far too many

2/12 :: - 155.0 - water weight likely from weight lifting the day before.

2/13 :: - 155.8 - hmmmm still up. Likely still water weight (I hope!). Went a little crazy on carbs today. There were sweets everywhere at work and starting a lent challenge on Wednesday I took advantage of it

2/14 :: - 155.6 - first day of lent and I'm going to keep my carbs low until it ends. Try to keep it around 20 - 30 net grams per day for the entire time!

2/15 :: -

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 - 185.2 - Confirmed this weight at the gym.
02/08 - 186.4 - Expected this after training and big dinner yesterday.
02/09 - 185.4 - Training again today. Probably some hiking this weekend.
02/10 - 184.2 - Huh. I mean, yay but...weird.
02/11 - 183.4 - I mean I guess I've been working hard but I was in kind of a stall for a couple weeks so it's surprising to drop this much this week.
02/12 - 184.2 - Big lunch, lots of salt yesterday.
02/13 - 183.8 - Training is going well. We're working on upping weight now that she thinks I have good form and stability.
02/14 -184.8 - Big dinner, lots of walking.

Ending Round 30 Weight: 106.9 (pounds) which was the goal . . . but . . . I have lost my edge, eating over calories, blowing off exercise and just all around not feeling motivated. Weighing daily reveals my weight is beginning to climb again.

Let's Start Over
New Beginning!

2/7 - 107.3 (goal this round is 106.5 or less of course)
2/8 - 107.0 - feeling ready to commit to the plan again: Calorie, Exercise and Wine goals

2/9 - 106.4 - I have a few days off work and can focus on my goals (looking forward to working in the yard and playing with the doggies).
2/10 - 107.1 Calorie intake is too high even for added exercise. Typical for me. Gotta stay mindful in the evenings.
2/11 - 106.8 - feels like my true weight. Hmmm . . . in theory if I have a deficit of 200 kcals/day for the next 5 days I could reach a "true weight" of 106.5 lbs which is my goal. This is doable!
2/12 - 108.1 - eek! The closer I get to the ultimate goal the hungrier I get. Starting over today (Monday). Hungry is the new normal for me

2/13 108.1 - not to panic, I followed the plan yesterday - a correction is coming soon.
2/14

108.0 On the right track now but not breaking any records.

Going to stay out of the office where the almond rocha is and have a nice dinner out tonight (not too much wine).

For all you wine lover's logging your Calories - most of the wine Calories in the data base are lower than actual due to the higher % ETOH in wine these days. Most wine's now have 13.5% alcohol (7 kcals per gram) which calculates to 27 kcals per oz.

DebCountsAll · February 2018

Start Date: 1/16/2018
Start Weight: 295
First Goal: Back away from 300!!!
Next Goal: 265
Ultimate Goal: Approx 150, but with muscles, and active with hiking, kayak, and all manner of outdoors.
R 29 End Weight: 285.4
R30 End Weight: 286.4

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 / 286.4 / Giving myself a cheat day for the Super bowl was a bad mistake. It took until today to correct the damage from salt intake, and I gained weight. Cheat days come at a huge cost.
02/08 / 284.4 / Wow. Guess it took until today to get rid of the salt!
02/09 / 284.2 / Keeping to the program, drinking a lot more water than 8 cups (never more than 12, no worries!)
02/10 / 282.8 / Yay! This is even with company over, and 5 oz of wine. Truth is, I really don’t want more wine. A glass is perfect.
02/11 / 280.8 / I really think this is just me getting my salt intake under control. I’m cooking my own food now and phasing out the “Atkins slurry” frozen dinners xD
02/12 / 281.4 / Salt intake way up. Yesterday was the fluke. 
02/13 / 282 / Just riding this out. Still eating to plan.
02/14 / 279.6 / Rode it out. I’m thankful for this group. I can see so many people at various levels of fitness and weight loss and I know now that this kind of thing happens to everyone, all the time. It is not that my body doesn’t know how to lose weight.

R29 SW = 219.8 R29 EW = 214.0 (-5.8 lbs) R29 AW = 215.9 (-4.3 lbs)
R30 SW = 214.0 R30 EW = 214.0 (0.0 lbs) R30 AW = 214.1 (-1.8 lbs)
Goal for this round: 212.0

Day/Weight/Comment

02/07 = 212.6. Day one, and so far, so good (-1.4 lbs). I wanted to get mad yesterday when I didn't lose any weight in last challenge, but I need to realize that good work I do one day may not always show up the exact next day. My body fluctuates on a daily basis, and sometimes I do not get a particular number exactly when I want it. Today is a "whoosh" because I have generally been doing pretty well. Whatever does not show up on this weigh-in will show up on the next. Or the next.

02/08 = 212.4. Figured out as (wanted to say “after,” but it was “as”) I bought my lunch yesterday that it was BAD; too many calories, too much salt. I threw half of it away, ate mindfully the rest of the day/night, and ended up still staying under calories for the day. This was a big victory for me, one that I would not have had a few weeks ago. I have the gym and basketball tonight, so I’m hoping to keep the positive vibes rolling!

02/09 = 211.4. This is feeling easy again. Under calories last night not including exercise. Took a walk during the day, went to the gym to lift weights, and played basketball for an hour. I know this is hard (I remember last week!), but it doesn’t feel that way right this second. This is my version of being in the zone. I know it won’t last forever, but I’m enjoying it. I wish this feeling on all of you!

02/10 = 212.6. Ate out twice yesterday. It’s funny. I woke up feeling great yesterday, but my energy level dropped like crazy as the day went by, and I was pretty much spent by lunch. I'm pretty sure I'm fighting off a cold (at least), and that I'm in a vulnerable state as a result (eating-wise). I’m realizing that this is also a pattern, and one of those things that can really throw me off of any good habits I might have. I ended up having both lunch and dinner out. I didn’t eat “crazy,” but I definitely could have made better choices. I was slightly over my calorie goal for the day (estimated), and definitely way over in Na+. I’m feeling a little better this morning, so I’m going to go to the gym, then play basketball, and see if I can have a really good weekend of eating mindfully, staying in control, and NOT being sick. Today will be the first time my wife has seen me play basketball in the 14 years we have been together (6+ of them married).

02/11 = 212.0. Ate out twice again yesterday! I kept things under control for the most part, and it was a great basketball day. It’s SO HARD to estimate calories when I eat out certain places.

02/12 = 211.4. Here’s what I’m NOT going to do right now: make a new goal for this challenge. Every time I’ve done that so far it’s been a kiss of death. That being said, I’m quite pleased with the number. I did well yesterday, stayed within calorie goals, and likely shed some salt/water weight from the past couple of days. Slow and steady. Don’t get too excited or too upset, no matter what the scale says. Keep doing all the good things you’ve been doing up to this point. AND basketball is tonight!

02/13 = 211.6. I'm a little confused here. I destroyed it at basketball yesterday. I think I was within calories a too, even without my exercise calories. The only thing I can think of is that my lunch estimation was off in calories and/or Na+. My water intake was also a little low, particularly on a basketball day. Whatever! Things are still going well. No basketball for a week and a half, so I need to stay focused and add some cardio at the gym.

02/14 = 210.6. This is the number I expected yesterday! Ate pretty well yesterday except for the TINY piece of cake my co-worker brought to share after lunch. She’s on Weight Watchers, and I’m sure she did not want to eat the whole thing, plus she’s really sweet… DAMN I LOVE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING! I felt like an addict getting their first taste after a period of abstinence. My whole day was great except for that cake. I THINK I made up for it; I tried to overestimate its calories, and ended up under my calorie goal overall. Tonight should actually be pretty healthy. I’m taking my wife out to our favorite sushi place (we usually don’t go out for V-Day at all, but rather save the celebration for the weekend). I’m still not changing my goal for this challenge. I’m still not changing my goal for this challenge. I’m still not changing my goal…

R30 * Start = 132.4 * Ave = 131.4 * Min = 130.6 * End = 130.6

Goal = work slowly toward new goal weight 127.0 (then we will see, UGW may be 125)

2/7 - 130.6 - under calories and a short walk, short row yesterday.
2/8 -131.0 - not a great day yesterday, nice walk at noon but no real workout and a bit over calories. Emo day about family stuff, and work is crazy right now. Plus side, trying to rehydrate and that may be part of the "gain"
2/9 - 131.4 - great workout yesterday and also phenomenal overeating. Back to sanity today, trying to stay mindful, breathing at work. Trouble adhering to my limit now that I am so close to goal, part of me says "good enough" but this is the pattern - get to goal and then re-gain! Not, not, not this time.
2/10 - 131.6 - over yesterday and no workout. 12 hours sleep tho. Guess why the discipline was slipping so bad? I think I was totally exhausted. Today so far, more stable and less cravings.
2/11 - 131.6 - yesterday under calories, thanks to a killer workout and 16,000 steps lol. Today so far, not good at all. Aagghh! My discipline is non existent.
2/12 - 131.2 - yesterday under maintenance, though not under my .5/week loss plan. BUT I RAN 6.1 MILES yesterday and it was awesome ... I sometimes forget for a while how much I love running. I resist because it's so hard. But then I get out there and I love it ...
2/13 -130.8 - hello again 130.x - yesterday under calories, only "workout" was walking back to work in the evening which is not my favorite... get stuff done with nobody there though!!

2/14 -130.0 - THIS IS MY ORIGINAL GOAL weight. Go me, thanks fitbit, MFP and ALL my friends. Run and elliptical last night, under calories.

I'm back. We will be moving soon, and driving for a week beginning on the 16th, so my goal for the next two rounds is to maintain. Losing a bit would be great, but I won't worry about that, esp. when we're on the road. Thanks again for this group!

Goals this round - Maintain within half a pound of 147; eat mindfully; exercise when possible.
5'3", 65 yrs.

Day/Weight/Comment

02/07 - 147
A little surprised, but I walked 3.5 miles yesterday and spent an hour packing and moving boxes around, so it's probably "muscle water" since I stayed within my calorie goal.

02/08 - 147
I went out for dinner last night and my sodium for the day was high, so still water. Otherwise I've been on target and have taken advantage of non-rainy days for nice long walks. I'm happy maintaining, but I won't lie - I'd love to hit 146 before we hit the road. We shall see!

02/09 - 146.8
There's that number again!

We hit the road a week from today. Will I drop .8 lb by then? Maybe....

02/10 - 147.2
Makes no sense. But ok, whatever.

02/11- 147.2
And here we are again.

I'm actually quite happy with my resistance to stress eating, living in a house full of boxes and all the other "stuff" that comes with moving, and I think this little uptick is pretty much meaningless. I've stayed on track with calories and macros, and have even gotten a little exercise. All good!

02/12 - 146.8
Up down up down....

02/13 - 147.2
...and up! No surprise, though. I ate out twice yesterday and had high-sodium foods, and I mindfully went over my calorie goal, so no biggie.

02/14 - 147
Thought I might be up today, so this is good.
