I'm excited for another Round. This group has been amazing for me regardless of whether we speak or not. You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the waters.
OSW: 202
UGW: 125
JGMR5SW: 155.6
GWR5: 154.6
02/27: 155 lbs I had a high carb day yesterday. I ate rice which I haven't had in about a year, numerous tortilla chips. Is the HIIT carb cycling really working, or is it a coincidence? I wonder if this number will be up tomorrow. My guess is yes.
2/28: 156.6 I was totally right! My number is definitely up. This carb cycling thing better work, or I'll cry.
03/01: 156: Going back down again. It's March 1st already! This year is flying by so quickly. Yesterday was incredibly stressful. ISTEP is hard on all involved.
03/02: 156.4 Going to head out to TN at some point today. It's our first ever getaway and my oldest is 14! I am nervous and yet so excited. Also, TOM has arrived. I believe that's the spike in my weight right now.
03/03: No Scale. I'm in Pigeon Forge, and even though I'm watching, I'm also not watching my calories and macros. My husband and I have never been away for any time in our marriage. So, I'm going to enjoy it.
03/04: No Scale. Put in about 15,000 steps yesterday. Will not put many in today since we have a 6 hour drive back to Indiana. The weekend flew by way TOO fast.
03/05: 156.6 Okay. I am good with this number. Now, it is back to the grind and to continue ISTEP.
03/06: 156.4 Well, I am down 2 oz atm. Last day to administer ISTEP for this round. Exhausted.
03/07: 156.6 Hmmm....

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 = 208.2 (-1.4). This is my expected next day weight drop after basketball. A couple of things - my reconstructed knee hurts. I lifted weights last night, but not at my normal gym, and I didn't get the workout I usually do. I knew it as it was happening; my knee hurt. Basketball was just okay. I felt old, and a little broken, even though I still played relatively well. It was still okay, but I REALLY need to get my workout in, and have that workout IN A WAY THAT WORKS FOR ME. Eating was good yesterday. Two days off before basketball happens again. I might need to consider skipping it at least once, depending on how I'm feeling. I hope my knee feels better.
2/28 = 208.6 (+0.4). Had a planned cheat MEAL (not day) for lunch yesterday, and it was GLORIOUS - Nashville hot chicken sandwich from a place here in LA that never has less than a 2-hour wait (I got a hook-up). I ate accordingly to offset my indulgence (salmon and vegetables for dinner), so a small weight gain here is not an issue. My knee feels better this morning, which is a welcome relief with basketball coming tomorrow night. I should have a decent day calorie-wise, though I know I'll be a bit over in Na+.
3/1 = 207.4 (-1.2). Ate well yesterday, got a bit of a whoosh. This is the time I need to remind myself to stay on track. Don't get too excited. It's okay to be happy, but don't let it make me complacent. I have basketball tonight (I think) and lifting weights at the gym (definitely), so today can be a another great day. I have everything up until dinner pre-planned, and dinner (after basketball) will be light. Need to remember to drink extra water early on this exercise day, and to make sure to get the workout I want at the gym tonight.
3/2 = 206.4 (-1.0). Expected loss after basketball, and a new low. I have to acknowledge something. I've been trying to ignore the fact that my knee has been feeling like crap, and that I'm noticing it getting worse. I haven't slowed down at all yet exercise/basketball-wise, but I'm afraid that I probably should, at least in the short-term. Good day of eating yesterday. Drank plenty of water. Feeling depressed with this rain, and about my knee.
3/3 = 206.6 (+0.2). Tiny gain is not a problem. Ate moderately well yesterday. Had a couple of sweet things, but I did it in moderation. I'm going to the gym today, and I'm going to hyper-focus on getting my bad leg (knee) strong. I am NOT giving up any of my basketball yet, except maybe one day this week (none scheduled today, maybe skip Monday). Trying to fight through this little lull/depression and stay motivated. At least I'm having a great round regarding my weight. It helps, and I needed this. Modifying my challenge goal slightly to stay motivated.
3/4 = 210.6 (+4.0!!!!) The curse of changing my challenge goal returns! I have no words for this. I'm pretty sure I didn't even eat 4 pounds of food yesterday. I get that it was a bad day eating; I was about 1200 calories over maintenance. I also know that I revisited a couple of bad habits that I needed to be reminded of. I'm sure this number will get down in the next couple of days, but SHEESH. I made a decision about my knee that I hope will help (it has in the past), because it HURTS. Meals are all planned for today, and I'll be under my calorie goal.
3/5 = 209 (-1.6). I should be pretty much back to normal by Thursday, but my recent 4-pound gain in one day is a major reminder of how every meal counts. 4-6 pound gains used to be common weekend occurrences for me, but I've been getting through weekends staying even for the most part. This was a good remember that going back to old habits really isn't an option anymore. Yesterday's eating was under control and right on the mark regarding calories.
3/6 = 209 (no change). I got tricked into a bad lunch yesterday by a co-worker (fatty salt bomb), and spent the rest of the day trying to offset it. Drank a ton of water, ate well for dinner, and ended the day at "even." NSV. Still hoping to drop some off my weekend weight in the next couple of days. Going to the gym tonight to lift weights. I AM going to do some HIIT tonight as well, even if I don't want to.
3/7 = 208.6 (-0.4). Fought my way through HIIT last night after lifting weights. Ended the day slightly under calories (ate back 80% of my exercise calories). My knee killed me last night, but it's better this morning. I'm feeling challenged right now. Exercise is hard because of the knee, so I'm getting a cortisone injection tomorrow (have major arthritis in my reconstructed right knee, so cortisone is not a problem). Food is sneaking up on me right now. I need to refocus myself, be kind to myself, and stick with realistic expectations. Sometimes I get to excited, I let my guard down for a moment, and I have that "4 pounds in one day" result. Stay mindful every day, every meal. It's not just the way my body looks; it's my health. The choices I make matter. Poor ones have consequences.

2/27 ~ 155.4 Down a little, but am expecting a whoosh soon. Under cut my calories yesterday, that was ok as I think I was still full from the weekend. 16,400 steps 1235 calories.
2/28 ~ 157.6 ... Life! Ate too much and moved not enough. Plus some high sodium foods. Spent some quaility time with my youngest. Hope to spend the next few days back at it, although SO gets to come home in the next week or so and we may go away!!! So excited. 11,627 steps and 2382 calories (best estimate) Egg white omlete for dinner?? Oh no!! I also have a dr appointment during my lunch walk, these numbers look like they may be a slow downward climb. Not worried. As a bonus I found 10 bucks on my lunch walk yesterday, this exercise thing is starting to pay off!!
3/1 ~ 156.1 ... Hooray it's March!! 15,755 steps and 1291 calories. Cutting down to 1200's due to my weekend indulgence. Coming down very very slowly. Have a measurment day coming up and sad this bloat will may still be on.
3/2 ~ 155 ... 17,001 steps 1554 calories. Slowly going back down. So quick to rocket up, but so darn slow to get back down.
3/3 ~ 151.6 ...14,267 steps 1507 calories. Ah back to almost where I was a week ago. Working this weekend so no long hike or walk. Looks like most are killing it on their losses. WTG, Have a great weekend!!
3/4 ~ 150.9 ... 19,270 steps and 1685 calories. Working for a few hours today then headed to the spa!! SO is on his way home after working away for more than 2 months. (so happy) I couldn't get much time off work but managed to wrangle 5 days. We are looking at going away
3/5 ~ 149.9 ... 17,876 steps and 1640 calories. Went to the SPA so nice, but was impatient and screwed up my pedi. Oh well it still looks better then I could have done myself. Back at goal but am going away on Thursday and those numbers will go back up, not worried.
3/6 ~ 149.1 ... Yup back at goal, just in time to climb back up. I know most of it is water weight but it just takes so many more days to get out of my system then to put it on. 18,152 steps and 1507 calories. (1) more day of work!
3/7 ~ 148.6 ... New lowest since pre children (oldest is 20) Sadly headed out on Vacation so I'll have to fight hard to get it back. Need to stay determinded when I get back. Also put me at a 75lbs loss with MPF and 77.4 total. 12,246 steps and 1556 calories.

Expected. Celebrated my dad's birthday, who is no longer with us, with the family last night. Went to a Chinese restaurant. I realized how starchy the foods were! Rice never tasted sooo good. Still tried to log in my food even though I didn't know what I specifically had, macro-wise.
Last night was rest day from the gym. Tonight will be my 8th night working out.

Neat mini challenge ideal. I am joining it late but it's better now than never..am I right.
3/4 SW=361.8 *Bought a new digital scale, set up my Samsung Health. Came in under budget on call. Super excited to finally get off the plateau.
3/5 SW=359.3 *Walked .8 of a mile today went to the park and back. 2nd day in a row I came in under my calories budget.
[So I just discovered that you can't edit a forum post...past an 1hr. So to update I quoted myself]
3/6 SW=358.0 *So today is kind of a big day, I'm joining a diet bet game; for my chance at winning some $$ on my weight-loss journey. So here's to more exercise and staying under my calories budget
3/7 SW=355.2 *So yesterday I walk the dog to the park again, and realized I wanna do that everyday and slowly increase my walking distance. Yesterday calorie budget didn't get broke but I ended up eating my full budget. I followed this amazing recipe called Italian sausage white bean soup from cook smart meal plan. I made 6 servings yesterday @293cal a serving with extra broth and I grabbed 2 serving yesterday.8 -

Yeah, in retrospect, I think the occasional huge deficit just makes sense. I feel different one day to the next, so why wouldn't my eating reflect that? Thanks for the input.5 -

I sort of stopped posting last round because there was nothing new. 156-157-156-157... I actually have been doing quite well with exercise and been OK on nutrition but a little on the high side for calories. Still calculate that I've had enough of a deficit to lose at least a tiny bit this month but nope. I feel like I've added some muscle in the last month, I mean I physically feel stronger (I've added some strength training TRX and yoga), but the tape measure isn't giving me any love, either.
02/28: 155.5
When I stepped on a second time it was 156.0 but I'm claiming the lower number anyway. Good day for nutrition and water, a rest day for strenuous exercise but I did take a walk and did restorative yoga.
03/01: 156.0
No sugar, exercised, water, well under my daily calories.
03/02: 155.0
Good day for nutrition & calories, need more water.
03/03: 155.0
03/04: 154.0
A new low for me. I had comfort pizza for dinner though, so never mind tomorrow's weigh in.
03/05: 155.0
Luckily had today off, I have a cold. I did absolutely nothing and ate light, lots of liquids.
03/06: 152.5
All that tea, I guess. ???
03/07: 153.0
Three sick days. I guess I haven't had anything inflammatory and had lots of fluids. If I can hang onto this loss, I'm two pounds away from a 50 lb loss, which is exciting. I made it down to 155 in 2000, anything lower than that and I haven't seen it since the 80s (my teens).11 -
Female, 5'4"
Starting Weight: 135 lbs
Goal Weight: 115 lbs - Met in late 2017
I met my goal weight in late 2017. My new goal now is to stay around 115 average. Lately I've been ranging around 110-112 lbs. Since switching to a whole food plant based diet, I can't seem to stop losing weight, despite reintroducing alcohol into my diet. It's about the seemingly unimportant decisions. But consistently making them everyday is what leads to success.
Goal This Round: Maintain 115 lbs Average
2/27 • 112 • Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights. 1300 cal
2/28 • 111 • Ran 3.5 miles. 1350 cal
3/1 • 111 • Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights. 1350 cal. 4 servings of alcohol
3/2 • 110 • Ran 3.5 miles. 1300 cal
3/3 • 111 • Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights. 1550 cal. 4 servings of alcohol
3/4 • 109 • Skiing all day. 1700 cal. 4 servings of alcohol
3/5 • 109 • Played 2 sets of tennis. 1600 cal. 4 servings of alcohol
3/6 • 111 • Lifted weights. 1300 cal
3/7 • 110 • Ran 3 miles & lifted weights. 1900 cal. 3 servings of alcohol. I seem to have opposite fluctuations as others. I tend to lose weight on weekends and vacations. And then gain back during a normal work week. I always thought that was normal until reading everyone’s posts here.

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.
3/7 – 65.6kgs. 100 grams to go!

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
03/06: 209.2
03/07:208.9
One more day in this round! I've really got to get back to drinking my water. Always seems like my days are spent traveling, and that always means I drink less water. Tomorrow, I go to the Weight Loss Clinic; I was told I needed to lose 4 lbs. by this visit. I might make it if I don't eat anything else tonight, and drink extra water!5 -
I am starting all over again...but I am not giving up!

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!
3/6 - tomorrow!
We moved into our apt. -finally! So happy to be out of the motel, even though it was very nice. Tomorrow I'll weigh in (eek) and go from there.
3/7 - 149.1
Total damage for 2.5 weeks of travel, motels, and restaurant eating with some snack junk throw in - 2.3 pounds. Yay! Got back on track eating today, although still eating out as no time for groceries yet. But still...
