Yes, this is hard and I can sometimes feel like the weight is never going to come off, but one thing that I have learned is that if I stick with it, it does eventually come off. I have to continue to log my food, and exercise. I also have to be ok with the weight coming off slowly. This is the longest I have ever stuck with MFP so I'm happy about that. This week's goal is to exercise. I missed all of last week and that can't happen again.
2/27: 154.3
2/28: 153.1 I guess I can only look back and see that I still weight less than when I first started. This is getting
hard but I have to keep telling myself that I'm not on a diet. The weight will come off if I eat good whole
foods, track what I eat, and move my body. I have to get my timeline out of my head so I don't get
frustrated.

3/5: 151.1 Lowest weight since I've started tracking my food and using the mfp app. This is very motivating and I

Goals for this round: track all calories, water, sodium, and steps; also lose 3 lbs.
Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 - 191.6 (not a good start), net calories burned ~ 1000, water (5 glasses), sodium -1670, 11,800 steps. could use more water, otherwise ok.
2/28 - 190.4 (back to 2/26 weight), about 1100 calorie deficit, 64 oz water, sodium - 2706, 11,900 steps. I'm starting to think my calories burned are a bit on the high side -- I'm relying on what my fitbit is telling me.
3/1 - 190.0 - good!, deficit ~ 1100, 56 oz water, sodium ~ 2138, 12,900 steps
3/2 - 189.8 - got up around 5 am, weighed 191, couldn't go to work due to weather, went back to bed, woke up 4 hours later, and weighed 189.8. Not sure why that happens -- is it me processing the previous day or is it my scale trying to decide what number to display. there's not much I can do about it, but it's good to know THAT can happen. Calorie deficit ~1500, 56 oz water, very few steps due to weather (~3,000), but mangaged to ride stationary bike for about an hour, plus 1 Jillian Michaels DVD.
3/3- 188.8 (after sleeping in a bit) weather is looking better, hope to get in a nice walk. Rested most of the day, deficit ~ 500 calories, water- not good, sodium-1641. Few steps
3/4 - 188.0 - deficit ~ 1500, 56 oz water, sodium 1793, 13,400 steps
3/5 - 188.2 - so far day is ok for eating and walking. Salt's not looking good though

R31 EW: 218.6
R32 EW: 215.8 ✔️Goal
Goal: Release 2 lbs per round to reach onederland by Memorial Day weekend.
Ultimate Goal: 175 lbs, reevaluate at that point
February
27: 215.8... I'm glad for sustaining this, even if it's only been for 2 days in a row. I've now lost 15 pounds since Christmas, and half of that since starting this challenge. Food, exercise, and water were good yesterday. Today I drove past 4 gas stations that have espresso/latte machines. I love the drinks, and they aren't high in calories or carbs as long as I skip the extra flavoring. Coffee at home is cheaper and healthier though. Each station that I passed, I told myself to just hold off and if I really wanted a latte I could wait until the next station. I made the 40 mile drive without stopping and made my bulletproof coffee as soon as I got home.
28: 215.7... I'll take it! Walked for over an hour yesterday. It was 54°F, which is crazy for February in Wisconsin! I'm glad I got to get out and enjoy it. Water, food, and sodium all good.
March
1: 215.3... Slow & steady. All good yesterday, and prelogged for today. I have an old college friend visiting, so I'm not sure I'll get much exercise in.
2: 215.6... Normal fluctuation. I was a little low on my 100oz water goal, but I did find time to get a solid walk in while my daughter was in gymnastics.
3: I forgot to check in this day! Weight was 216.4. Not sure about the increase, but not concerned after the March 4th weigh in.
4: 214.5... Yesterday was a rest day. I unintentionally ate 1300+ calories instead of 1680 plus had an extra deficit according to my Fitbit activity adjustment.
5: 214.8... Normal fluctuation, I think. I switched my MFP weekly weight loss goal from 1 pound to 1.5, and my calories dropped from 1680 to 1400. Today is my second day with this. I'll try it for a week or so, and change it back if it feels off.

I’m in! Third round and I love it. I’m learning that my partner and I eat out a lot during the weekend, and it’s this eating out during the weekend that unravels all the effort I put in during the week. I’m disappointed about that but theres no point dwelling on the past. All I can do is learn from my experience and improve from there.
2/27 – 66.9kgs. Yes! The bloat is gone (hopefully all). New goal for end of Round 33 : 65.9kgs
2/28 – 66.7kgs. Slowly going down..
3/1 – 66.7kgs
3/2 – 66.6kgs. Slowly but surely…700grams to go for the next 6 days.
3/3 – 66.4kgs
3/4 – 66.5kgs
3/5 – 66.4kgs : Yay! Not an improvement on weight loss, but it’s a huge improvement - especially after eating out all weekend, I didn’t gain a kilo like I normally would have.
3/6 – 65.7kgs. Exceeded my goal of 65.9kgs, but met my original goal from 2 rounds ago ( I wanted to lose 1kg each round)! New goal for end of R33 will be 65.5kgs.

3/4 - 54 - I ate some sweets quite late last night (and drank just a few little cups of tea throughout the day), so I'm not surprised OR upset! I'll be back on track in a day. Probably! I've already survived a week without a single gram lost, so there's nothing to worry about.
3/5 - 54 - Oh, well, I have to admit, I feel slightly depressed these days, and the only coping mechanism I know—rather the only one that works for me—is to eat something sweet, so I keep doing that. I still eat not much, less than 1200 kcal per day, but there probably won't be any progress any time soon, sadly! However, to be honest, I don't really enjoy eating as a way to cope with stress, so it seems I will put an end to this activity soon, too. I do enjoy food more when it's cooked in different ways and when it's healthy. Otherwise it gives a short-lasting feeling of relief, and when it ends there's literally nothing left. I'm not sure why I am stuck with this habit.9 -

Why are there two Round 33 pages? I thought I was going crazy; I had went over every page 2 or 3 times looking for my posts! When I couldn't find them, I thought my mind was slipping! So glad I kept looking and found the other post because I wouldn't have slept tonight thinking I was losing it! I mean a senior moment is one thing, but gee, IJS!!!

Didn't drink enough water yesterday. Only on my second bottle today. Must do better.5 -
Our 10-day drive from Oregon to Indiana via the Southwest followed by more time in a motel and eating out plus beginning the search for a house has made me want comfort food & junk I haven't eaten in 3 years. This round I'm trying to just be aware, and when I do eat stuff I don't normally touch, to acknowledge why I'm doing it. If I can finish this round no more than 2 pounds over by last weigh in, that will be fine. Better will be to finish where I was -- 146.8 at the end of R31. Then back to actually paying attention & losing.
Goals this round - Replace my scale, and finish round no higher than my last weigh in of 146.8.

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 - no scale
Haven't replaced my sale yet, still living in motel because our stuff hasn't arrived. Sigh. Trying to eat properly. No idea about my weight, but I did buy size 10 jeans tonight, so there's that!
2/28 - no scale
See yesterday (without the jeans).
3/1 - no scale
I'm finding myself wanting to eat junk I haven't bothered with in 3 years. Still in the motel, movers apparently aiming for the last day of their delivery window. Sigh. I'm going to try at least to get a scale tomorrow to I can see how much damage I've done over the past 13 days.
3/2 - no scale
I didn't get to the scale store but I ate better today, and burned a bunch of calories driving around for hours (house hunting). Still in the motel, but the mover will finally be here Tues. and I can get back to my usual programming.
3/3 - no scale
Same old, same old. I did get some exercise. Other than driving - we went walking in a park this morning and this afternoon we walked all over the home & garden show. I'm eating within bounds, though not as healthy as I usually do. Three more nights in the motel, and then we can get back to normal. It's been a long 15 days.
3/4 - no scale
I thought about picking up a scale today, but decided not to fight Sun. afternoon shoppers.
Tomorrow for sure. I seem to have satisfied my junk food splurge, and am back to healthier eating (considering we're still eating out). I'm looking forward to getting back to my normal routine - weigh in first thing, eat healthfully at home most of the time, walk. Who knew quiet routine would sound so appealing? Anyway, thanks for letting me record my thoughts here - it actually helps keep me mostly on track, and to understand when and why I'm not.
3/5 - nope
I bought a scale today, but it was after breakfast so I have not weighed in. Probably won't tomorrow as we're still in the motel, but tomorrow is (finally!) move-in day, so on Wed. morning I'll be able to check the damage of 2.5 weeks of eating out & staying in motels. I will be so glad to start eating at home!!! I'm pretty sure I'm up a few pounds, but also pretty sure some of it is water from all the restaurant food. I also look forward to getting more exercise, and less of it from driving!
