Alrighty y'all I'm jumping in a day late since we just returned from our trip to Germany! Beer + sausages+ German bread = 5lbs! let's see how fast I can get rid of it.

Round 26 average weight 175.9
Round 32 average weight 179.3
Round 33 average weight 178.2
Round 34 average weight 179.6
Round 35 average weight 179.7
Round 36 on holiday

Original starting weight: 198
Start this round: 184.0
Goal this round: 174
UGW: +/- 145

4/8 no scale

4/9 184.0

4/10 181.4 looks good, except I got used to eating lots of big portions over the past 10 days so my belly is hungry! probably need to check out the "volume eaters" group here on MFP, lol. Still 3.0 lbs up from prevacation weight.

4/11 180.2 ate well yesterday. Tightening up even more today, gotta make it a habit again so I don't need motivation or as much self control to resist challenges. Need to drink all my water today as well!

4/12 180.8 had a salty dinner, an hour of cardio, and an Aperol spritz (or 2) last night. I went over my calories just a bit, having a better day today!

4/13 182.0 I feel certain this is a sodium bump bc we had Mexican take out last night. I still came in at 1500 cals though, only had 6 chips and half a burrito for dinner. Hoping the trend will resume tomorrow.

1988 high school graduation 185-190lbs
weight on 1/29/18 = 234.5
new goal - drop below 190 feed and watered
round 33 - start=215lbs end 202lbs
round 34 - start = 202 end 192.8lbs stomach empty and bone dry
round 35 - start = 192 end 196lbs
round 36 – 195lbs no change.
Round 37 goal – if I manage to maintain 195 I will be happy. I will be celebrating birthweek.
4/8 – 194lbs. 700 calories under food goal.
4/9 – 195lbs – still good considering its Monday. Birthday party tonight at local pub that cooks a mean bacon, ham, cheeseburger and the best fried mushrooms. Better have a skip lunch to have room for the 1300 calorie dinner
4/10 195lbs – I so wanted the steak buffet. Oh well the wife promised this weekend when kids might be able to make it. Had awesome 1600 calorie burger and mushrooms. Then did cardio for over an hour. Way to many birthday cocktails.
4/11 – 196lbs up 1 pound. I think it’s the snacks late last night at Spanish class.
4/12 – 192lbs - I have no idea why. Maybe the workout on Monday. Maybe 600 calorie food deficit yesterday?

4/13 – 194lbs – nothing but cucumbers until dinner at the steak buffet tonight. I am doing cardio today to balance out the 3 pounds of meat I am planning on having.

4/8 -334.6 - This is a back up to past the starting point again. Plan on sticking to the plan more closely. It's been a rough few days making this number not all that surprising. I hope by sticking to the plan I'll ditch the water weight at least.
4/9 - 328.2 - Back on target for eating habits. I haven't gotten back into a routine of exercise, yet, due to the weakness and fatigue caused by my medications. I will keep trying to find the sweet spot in my day to get a good workout.
4/10 - 326.0 - Happy to see it still moving in the right direction. Still sticking to the diet and exercise plan, admittingly not really getting much in the way of exercise, working on it.
4/12 - 328.8 - Big jump from a day of not eating quite right. It's amazing the flutuations at this level.
4/13 - 331.2 - Had a bunch of Chinese food last night, so lots of water retention, some actual weight gain as my calorie level was over 3,000, but that's not enough to equate to 2.5 pounds of weight. Getting back on track today by skipping the trip to George's (it's a restaurant). Still at a net loss for the month and fully intending to have it go down again tomorrow and going forward.

04/11--220.4 Did not get much water in yesterday.
04/12--220.2 Saw a lower weight briefly flash on the scale, we'll see what happens tomorrow. Went to Kettlebell last night. Working on getting water in today.
04/13--220.9 Was surprised that the scale went up that much, but then realized that I was sore from my Chiropractor appointment yesterday and that it was probably some water retention.

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.

Warning- this is depressing. Death mention

Finally admitted to myself that I'm Grief eating. It's mostly unconscious, and I've been keeping myself distracted and busy, but I was at the visitation for my uncle today and I realized what was happening with my eating habits. My Grandpa passed away in Feb right after I decided to get in shape and it took me two weeks to get back on track with my search for a gym membership.
Anyway. My uncle's funeral is tomorrow. I kinda wish I was the type who ate less when stressed/depressed.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. We're in it together, as I am struggling with several deaths in my family. Hugs to you, and let's just be good to ourselves, pick ourselves up when we fall, and lean on each other when we can!

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.
4/10 141.5 I'm down a little but still not happy about my weight this week.
4/11 141.2 I'm steadily lossing a little. I'm craving sweets bad recently.
4/12 141.4 back up a little today. We ended up having dinner at a friend's so I think I over ate just a bit. I need to figure something out so I can loss the weight I need before the wedding.
4/13 139.6

I don't know why I dropped almost 2 pounds in a day but I'm so happy I did. I'm hoping I'll stay out of the 140's for good now.

4/11 216.6 Big drop…..but I knew it was coming since this is only day 9 for me back to counting calories, and back on MFP. Now to keep up the momentum.

Round 36 - SW 167 EW 168

SW - 172 on 1/14/18
CSW - 168.2
GW - 165
UGW - 130

Day/Weight/Comment

4/8 - 168.2 - Had a girls night last night and while it was extremely fun, I took in a lot of calories through mixed drinks. I kept my dinner healthy but expecting an increase in tomorrows weigh in. Would love to make my goal for this round as I didn't last round so lots of water starting today, health food chooses and lots of gym time.

4/9 - 170.0 - There's the increase I was expecting to see. Woke up with migraine this morning, hoping it'll be gone by this afternoon so I can hit the gym after work. Feel like I've been stuck around this 167-170 weight forever and starting to feel discouraged but I won't give up, just got to keep myself motivated.

4/10 - 170.0 - Still have the migraine and not feeling well this morning. Wasn't expecting for a good weigh in this morning but the scale not going up is a win in my book. Wish I could get down to the weight I started round 36 at and never see 170 again. Will work out after work today and hopefully see a good weigh in tomorrow. Healthy packed lunch, lots of water, gym and healthy home cooked meal for dinner tonight is the plan.

4/11 - 169.0 - Glad to see the scale going in the right direction. Had a very busy day yesterday but was able to still eat healthy and fit in some time at the gym. Work hours are changing for today because of some meetings so will need to figure out when I can fit in some exercise today so I can keep on track for the next few days and make my goal for this round.

4/12 - 169.0 - Happy with this weigh in, I wasn't able to work out as much as I would have liked yesterday so I'm relieved to not see 170 again. Back to a normal schedule today so fingers crossed I'll see 168 tomorrow.

4/13 - 167.2 - whooo-hooo!!! Hopefully this weight stays. Weighed myself 3 times just to make sure it was right. Wasn't expecting such a big drop today so even if I go up a little tomorrow I'll still be happy. Excited to see this number though and it's much needed motivation to not sabotage it by just eating whatever and not exercising this weekend. Didn't think I'd make my goal this round but seeing this number today makes me think that if I just continue with the hard work I've put in so far I'll be able to do it.

Day/Weight/Comment

4/8 = 207.0 (-0.4). Played basketball yesterday, but had parents over and took them out to dinner to my favorite Mexican place. At least weight is heading in the proper direction.

4/9 = 205.4 (-1.6). BOUNCE BACK™. I had a good day eating yesterday, topped off by my favorite salad from a relatively healthy restaurant. Went grocery shopping for the week and tried to look around for some easy ready-made stuff that will work in a pinch when I start keto next week, and was able to find a couple of things (which was nice). My wife and I started our SL 5x5 last night, and I only wanted to spank her once or twice as she argued with me regarding a program I have done extensive research on (and that she knows NOTHING about). We got through it. I'm really happy to see my weight headed back down relatively quickly. As much as I know big spikes in weight are very temporary (as long as I'm being accountable and generally staying the course), it still sometimes feels traumatizing to see them. I'm going to begin to cut down on my carbs and stay away from all sweets this week (except my birthday on Saturday) in preparation for my new lifestyle.

4/10 = 204.2 (-1.2). Another BOUNCE BACK™. After freaking out 3 days ago (gaining 5 lbs in 2 days), it's nice to have again the experience of noticing things going back to normal as the days pass. Just about down to my SW from last round, and I couldn't ask for anything more at this point. I ate pretty well yesterday (slightly under maintenance), but I had a sugar binge (500 calories or so). I'm officially throwing out my remaining candy when I get home tonight. It's the Devil. I'll have a bit of my birthday cake on Saturday, but that's it for sweets for the foreseeable future. I need to figure out some Keto stuff on the subject of sweets (whether to subtract from total carbs fiber and sugar alcohols), but I think I'm generally just going to avoid them at this point, unless I learn something amazing. I need to get my taxes done, and I have some things from work that I need to accomplish at home, so I'm going to focus on that for the next couple of days (at the expense of exercise). I'll get back to the exercise on Thursday (SL 5x5 and my normal basketball night).

4/11 = 202.6 (-1.6). ANOTHER BOUNCE BACK™! This is just getting silly now, but I love it. And if I'm being honest and objective about this, what's happening right now fits a clear pattern that's been well-established by me and others here. For me - one bad meal takes 4-5 days to recover from. 4 days later, I'm just about recovered. Yesterday was great eating-wise. I was under calories, and no sugar binge. Taxes just about done. Basketball tomorrow, plus day 2 of SL 5x5. I miss exercise.

4/12 = 203.4 (+0.8). This feels likely a normal fluctuation, even if it's on the slightly extreme side. I was under maintenance yesterday, though salt intake was a little high. I have basketball and SL 5x5 tonight, and I'm going to make this a GREAT eating day. All the candy in my home had been eliminated (by my mouth). Still trying to cut down on carbs in preparation for my new Keto lifestyle (starting Monday).

4/13 = 201 (-2.4). WHOOSH™. The circle is complete. I'm a pound lower than I've been since I joined this group. This happens, of course, on the day before my birthday. I'm going to try my best to keep it under control tomorrow. ONEDERLAND is so close I can taste it. Food was great yesterday. Basketball was amazing, too. Drank 21.5 cups of water. No complaints today!

Welcome @curious_kiris! Sounds as if you are prepared!

@lydlou02 I’m sorry for your losses. I had a similar problem about 25 years ago when we had 9 family deaths in 9 months. I did a depression self assessment and finally had to address it with my MD. Take care of you. Sending prayers.

@minstrelofsarcasm You ARE still DOWN over 2# in a week. You’ve got this!

@brw828 I think I would give the cake away and not even be tempted by it. But that’s me.

@mlhopp93 Boar’s Head now makes Chocolate hummus. Hummus people seem to think it is great.
