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.....

3/15 - 139.40lb - 1lb more gone. Staying focused, good food day prepped today and gym tonight so hoping to see another drop tomorrow. 3 days till round end when I wanted to be under 136lb - hhmmmm with 3.50lb to meet that target, I may need to save that target for the next round!

@Sparx_81 Trust the process, it will happen. It's not linear and there will be times it feels like it's never going to happen but it will as long as you stay consistent.

Day/Weight/Comment

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.

3/15 (Thursday) - 217.4 - scale flashed 216.8, then 217.4. Bodyfat % dropped slightly, so I think I may be 216.8.

I know the round is almost over, but I am jumping in. I have a remaining 12.7 pounds to lose and I need the challenge to keep me on track.
