Day/Weight/Comment
03/09 = 159.4 First day of Spring Break! Hope to get in lots of exercise over the next 10 days!
03/10 = 160.2 Vacation food and drink. Splurged on a shrimp dip that was amazing.
03/11 = 161.2 Well, I expected yesterday morning’s “up”, but not this one. I worked hard yesterday, riding my bike 10 miles and walking 4 miles and getting 21K steps for the day. Ate well within limits. I guess this is still carry over from Friday’s splurge. Gotta get this back down! But I’m up early to ride before the rain comes.
03/12 = 162.4 Ok, this $%*#@ has got to STOP!!! I rode my bike 12.72 miles yesterday morning before the Island Way Grill Brunch Buffet (which was wonderful) then hiked 5 miles along the Hillsborough River. I ended up with 22K steps for the day. There is NO way I’ve eaten 10K calories over maintenance in the last three days, but here we are. Gonna push water and cook my own meals today and see what happens. Come on, body, get your act together!
03/13 = 160.4 That’s better! Now, gotta work back down into the 150s again.
03/14 = 159.4 Finally back where I started! YAY!

Avg loss per round - 1.35lbs
R34 goal - under 136lb
3/09 - 140.30lb! Wow that must have been some meal on Wednesday evening! I know it was a larger than meal than I normally have and pasta, followed by a cheese board which I don't very often have but blimey - its hanging around!!! Another wait for a whoosh! Should all be ok today and Saturday but Sunday is Mothers Day here in the UK so hoping to not get chocolates! Nothing else in the diary for this round other than Mothers Day so my round target of under 136lb should be achievable.
3/10 - DNW
3/11 - DNW
3/12 - 143.20lb - not at all surprised! Ate out last Wednesday and again Friday, plus Mothers Day weekend so involved chocolates, a giant cookie, cakes and a "popcorn and sweets" movie night plus a lovely dinner yesterday with all the trimmings including wine! No tracking at all.... However doing these challenges I know that these sort of weight gains aren't real gains, and that once I am back tracking properly (which I am today!) the excess will soon come off again. Before I started losing weight a weekend like this would have meant I carried on eating horribly for days if not weeks - but knowing I can have a totally off piste few days and then get back on it and get straight back in control is a good feeling
3/13 - 141.50lb - 1.7lb off and on the way back down. Good food day yesterday and 12,000 steps, food all prepped for today and gym PT session tonight so tomorrows weigh in should be all good.....
3/14 - 140.4lb - another 1.1lb off my extended weekend excesses! Goes on so quick and easy but so much harder to get back down again. 4 days to go to the end of the round and not sure I'll be quite back to where I started!! But still planning, still tracking, gym last night, gym tomorrow so will get back there eventually (even if not by Sunday morning) - 4 days to go.....! Sometimes makes you wonder if the indulgence is worth it.....

3/14 - 190.0 - That's more like it! I was worried, yesterday we went out for a friend's birthday, and I'm never sure how many calories I'm consuming at the sushi place we regularly visit. Exercising in the afternoon, 600+ cals expected

3/9 (Friday) - 219 - Yesterday I was 217.6. So, let the water weight games begin. Lol
3/10 (Saturday) - 220.2 - Hahahahaha I hafta laugh :-) but I'm getting closer to another 20 lb loss, therefore, a bounce in weight. That's what my body does. I just need to stay on point with water, food and macros. I drank over a gallon of water yesterday, but under calories by 188, wasn't hungry enough to eat them.
3/11 (Sunday) - 217.4 - Yeah. Games.
3/12 (Monday) - 217.6 - SMH - I had a talk with her (my body) She's stubborn, but I'm determined.
3/13 (Tuesday) - 218 - Has to be electrolyte imbalance, food, water, calories, macros are on point. Interesting how the body works.
3/14 (Wednesday) - 217.4 - I was not going to comment today, but I have lost 35lbs since September '17. That is 5lbs a month and one of those months I was in a plateau. Some years ago, I developed the habit of of weighing myself once a week. During a fat loss period, I know that my weight fluctuates too much from water. So, all that to say, if my weight by the end of this 10 day challenge settles to 217.4, that is a 1.2lb loss and I cannot be dissapointed with the number.

3/11 / 237 / Nice! And I can walk pretty normally today. Whew! Moving my round goal weight to 236!
3/12 / 238.6 / I was so hungry yesterday. I ate back all calories and would have happily kept going. NOM. I'm actually glad this is just a 1.6 pound increase. I expected worse!
3/13 / 238.6 / TOM creeping up on me. Not feeling great today, but will still try to make good choices. I want to sleep, eat all the things, and sleep.

3/9 182.0- hate a heavy dinner late, no exercise to speak of
3/10 183.8 - ran a 5k and then drank too much - total liquid calorie day.
3/11 182.6 - rested... It was my dad's birthday, so I made his favorite - pork BBQ. I ate cake
3/12 184.4 - Monday, back to the grind. Did I mention I ate cake....
3/13 184.4 - Tuesday... Dinner is ready in the crock pot, whipped out some frozen chili for lunch since I failed to salad prep on Sunday. My week feels out of kilter, but I am trying to make better choices than the past weekend.
3/14 183.8 - Wednesday... I am still sucking at waking up early to work out. I have been getting up early, but putting dinner in the crock pot, making breakfast for the family, today I did a load of laundry and unloaded the dishwasher. I am accustomed to getting up at 6:30. I have been waking up at 5:15 this week. This is kind of a double whammy with the time change. I am trying to make this my new wake up time in hopes of transitioning the chores into a workout. I did get in about 1000 extra steps today. Def not a workout, but better than nothing!!

Maybe high sodium content in what you're eating = water retention. Are you drinking enough water to flush your system? Also, muscles retain water as part of recovery.9 -

One of the keys to long-term and sustainable weight loss is to cut total calorie intake, and there’s no better way to do that than by eating just a little bit less of what you currently eat. Once you get into a habit of reducing portions—especially of sugary, fatty and other nutrient-poor foods—you can fine tune your diet to incorporate more nutrient-rich foods. But paring portions is still the best first step. — Elisa Zied, MS, RDN, CDN, author of Younger Next Week7
