Lowest weight: 135.4 pounds March 2018
Current weight: 135.4 pounds
Goal weight: 135-137; less is o.k. this round-anticipating weight gain on vacation
Goal for this Round: not worry about weight gain on vacation for much of Round 36 as I know how to get it off-try to get some physical activity on vacation so weight gain isn't too bad-walking, swimming, kayaking, maybe try a fitness class or two at resort

End of Round Weights R11: 143.4 (7/31/17); R12: 142.5 (8/10/17); R13: 140.4 (8/20/17); R14: 138.6 (8/30/17)

This round will be working back to achieve daily logging, eating at deficit to lose vacation gain, and returning to regular exercise. I have not weighed myself since March 25th and feel as if I have gained 15 pounds. I hope that I will get my courage up to step on the scale tomorrow morning, but if I don't, I will start to log, exercise, and eat at a deficit. Our vacation was amazing, and I knew I would gain this weight. It has been hard getting back to the kind of eating that I need to stay under 140 pounds. I will start full force tomorrow.

Age 60, 5'4" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145

My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.

04/07: 154.5 Finally, net calories & sugar green (not by much) but sodium RED, fiber & protein low, 14c water. Brought leftover lemon bars to work & they disappeared!

SheilaBoneham · April 2018

Once more into the fray.... I've decided to start including my average calories for the round with my end weight so I can really get a sense of what works. I do keep my macros pretty steady, but calories fluctuate and the average matters more than daily in my experience. I'm interested to see that although I exceeded my calorie goal during the last round and my weight jumped around a bit, I finished pretty much where I started. So maybe my TDEE is higher than I think and in theory I could eat a little more than I thought and still lose. We shall see. Glad to be back - thanks for being here for support & inspiration!

Goals:
Weight ~~ Lose slowly, hit <149 this round.
Food ~~ 1548 calories max (estimated TDEE); P 20-25%, C 35-45%, F 30-45%

Weight 2/2015 - 218

Day/Weight/Comment

4/8 - 149.6
After I posted yesterday, I decided to go a step farther for a longer view, so I averaged my daily calories for the past 30 days, during which my weight has been pretty steadily within half a pound of 149.5. Although my daily calories fluctuated from ~1400-2000, the average was 1549, which is 1 cal away from where I have put my TDEE for a while now (with minimal exercise). I really like having this data, and I'm since I do not want to cut my calories any more (metabolism & hunger), I'm happy holding steady here until I do get back to my typical activity level (soon!). It's easy to get wrapped up with the day-to-day and forget that reaching and maintaining a healthy weight is a long-term project - a lifestyle. Don't now if this helps anyone else, but it helps me a lot.

4/9 - 150.8
Eeek! But not a surprise - I had a major blow out yesterday. I knew what I was doing and did it anyway - I've been lusting after a pastry and some other things I don't usually eat, so I did it. And it's fine. Back on the wagon today with healthful food and lots to do.

4/8 139.7 I'm super happy I finally broke 140 this morning. I'm enjoying my fasting routine but slipped up with self control a couple of days last week. Today I get to eat from 10 am to 8 pm. Then I'll start another fasting phase. I'm starting to see some weight loss changes in my body.
4/9 141.9 I ate a lot of carbs yesterday so I'm not surprised to see this gain. Have to be better about watching what I eat today. I can only have lunch and dinner today. Lunch is 450 cal so I can have somewhat of a decent dinner later and still be under my calorie limit today.

Round 37 = Goal = Maintain 125-130. Going on a significant trip 4/12-4/24, away from scale and kitchen and kitchen scale and likely, some of the time, internet. Will be an emotional trip too, I can guarantee. So just hoping and praying I can be sensible, in every way, not just about food.

4/8 - 127.2 - under maintenance yesterday and 10K steps. Have not done any regular exercise in a week apart from some walking-grade aerobics.

4/9 - 127.0 - yesterday high on emo and calories, low on steps, and a new low weight today. Maybe excess cortisol burns calories my fitbit can't detect.

4/17

So happy hit 8,087 steps. Due to surgery it is tough. As soon as I eat I wear it around my waist.

4/9 - I was so happy the scale went the other way. Going to take it easy today. Today is my grand-daughter birthday so I want to keep the swelling down. I only sleep on the average 3 hours.
