R38 Starting/Ending: 184.8/??? lbs

Date - Weight - Update
4/18 W - 185.8 - As yesterday was a WHOOSH day for me, this is a decently reasonable bounce back, and still lower than where I was on Monday... anticipating this week to be more difficult than last. Exercising in the afternoon - about 600 cals.
4/19 Th - 184.8 - Maybe it wasn't a WHOOSH at all and I was just retaining water? Or this is another deceptive drop? The most likely scenario is regular fluctuations, but where's the fun in blaming that?; Exercised in the morning - about 600 cals, tomorrow will be a rest day and may end up being a maintenance day if I can't keep my calories in check.
4/20 F - 185.0 - Ate a bit too much after dinner. Still within calories, but it was pure carbs. The 0.2 lb increase is clearly water weight; rest day today but should still get plenty of steps in. Lots of stuff to do.
4/21 S - 183.8 - Ah yes, more fluctuations. Just what I wanted. Been oddly dehydrated lately, despite drinking over a gallon per day, going to try to up my intake just to be careful; Exercised in the morning - about 500 cals.

SheilaBoneham · April 2018

I've had my fun the past 6 weeks (moving, house hunting, eating!), but I've reset my goals and am serious now about dropping another 20 pounds by the end of the year. At 1 lb. per round, that's reasonable and doable, especially as the weather improves, my life settles down, and I get back to walking & hiking & biking & weights.

Goals:
Weight ~~ UGW - 130; goal this round - 149.
Food ~~ 1548 calories max (estimated TDEE); P 15-25%, C 35-45%, F 30-45%

Weight 2/2015 - 218
Lost 68#, regained 12 (to 156) on metabolism reset 11/16-6/17.

R15 end weight 151.2
R16 end weight 151.4 (+.2)

R29 end weight 146.8 (+/-0)
R30 end weight 146.8 (+/-0); ave net calories 1411
R31 end weight 146.8 (+/-0); ave net calories 1385
R32 end weight unknown - traveling, no scale - ave net calories 1468
R33 end weight 149.1; ave calories 1471 (after traveling/eating out for 3 weeks!)
R34 end weight 149; ave calories 1577
R35 end weight 149.4; ave calories 1592
R36 end weight 149.6; ave calories 1650

R37 end weight 151; ave calories 1703 (154 over estimated TDEE, so no surprise I've gained)

Day/Weight/Comment
GOAL: 149

4/18 - 150
I was so good yesterday I was hoping for a little less.

4/19 - 149.6
A little stressed today, waiting for seller's response to our requests re. house inspection. Aiming for lots of protein & reasonable good fats + a nice walk to fend off counter-productive urges.

4/20 - 150
Normal bounce. I ate well yesterday and walked a bit.

4/21 - 149.6
Good. I expect a bounce tomorrow - we had pizza for lunch today. Still possible to stay within calories, but sodium.... But that's fine if it happens. Have a lovely Saturday afternoon and evening!

Loss to date - 13.80 lbs
Avg loss per round - 0.86 lbs

R38 goals - to stay focused, log everything, drink my water and stay on track - aiming for a 136lb or below finish....

4/18 -136.60 down 1.0lb. guessing my usual post weekend "whoosh". My aim for this round is to keep it here or below and stay focused....... Happy with the start though

4/19 - 137.30 up 0.70lb - TOM imminent and bloated - not helped by late evening munchies last night (fairly healthy munchies of houmous and breadsticks - but was late last night) . Still down on the round start so far though

4/20 - 136.90 down 0.40lb - up down up down ..... TOM due and its now the weekend ........ I am feeling positive at the moment

Must keep up the water (hot here at the moment for the UK in April anyway!) but I did discover 50 calories mini soleros at my local M&S Today - it was lovely!

4/21 - 136.6 down 0.3 yay!! Good day planned today food wise and a 20mile or so bike ride too so here's hoping....

4/18 - 240.75 lbs - pretty good first day, ran/walked/shuffled four miles home from work. Ate the last of the Easter egg for dessert

4/19 - 236.75 - I'm guessing that 4 pound loss is all water - I got such a bad headache after my run last night. must drink more water!

4/20 - 236.25 - Lovely day this morning so I biked to work for the first time in a month. Going to try to bike 3x per week over the spring and summer!

4/21 - 236.5 - bit of a lazy stay at home day today. Went over calories by about 300 calories after afternoon tea at a friend's house, but these things happen!

4/21 289.7 wow what?!?!? I was not expecting that! Down 1.3lbs in one day - ahead of schedule but I will take it

Eating on days like today can be super tricky - out of bed at 3am, starting work at 5am - so I'm home and have had dinner by 4:30pm which gives me the rest of the night to get hungry. I need to remember to not eat too much as early as I did today and learn to save some calories on days like these.

Round 37: SW 238.8; EW 237.4 (-1.4), Ave 238.10
Round 38: SW 237; GW 235

4/18 / 237 / Under calories yesterday. I'm back to getting at least some activity in every day, but my knees are starting to bark a bit.

4/19 / 236 / Within calories again by a smidge. I stuck with just my home-to-work and back walking rather than adding anything else to see if my knees feel better. So far, so good. Working from home today, so I'll have the flexibility to do whatever I choose!

4/20 / 236.8 / Weighed myself two hours earlier than yesterday, so I'm not at all bothered by the tick upward. I bounced on the trampoline last night and was able to go 8 minutes straight. This probably doesn't sound like much to y'all, but that thing kicks my butt! When I first got it, I could go about 2 minutes, then pause, then another 2 minutes, etc. After bouncing, I did stationary bike for another 13 minutes and called it good. Going to a baseball game tonight, which is hard with Celiac. I need to eat beforehand, but sometimes the timing makes that tricky.

4/21 / 235.6 / I like it! My knee is unhappy. I will take a couple of rest days.

4/18. I forgot to weigh in before getting dressed this morning. 9787 steps before 6:00 when I plugged in. I'm still treating myself to doughnuts and licorice this week, but won't replace them when they're finally gone. Not the most nutritious day but kept my total calories in an acceptable range.

4/19 202 lbs 6657 steps so far. I've spent all day at an autism conference. The meals were fairly rich, but four fuzzy navels is what put me over on calories tonight. I'm heading to the pool now. I doubt I'll be able to do laps, but I can enjoy a boom in the hot tub.

4/20 hotel rooms don't have scales.
6613 steps today. Back to work tomorrow. I didn't really enjoy the last day of the conference.
Lunch was a completely inedible taco bar. So I definitely had too much cheesecake and snacks.

Reasonable eating resumes tomorrow.

4/21 203.5 lbs. 11138 steps today. I definitely move a lot more on work days. After seeing that number I'm not at all surprised that I sat down the moment I got home and didn't get up until bedtime. Anyways. Today has been filled with brain fog, so I really have no idea what I've eaten. I don't think to was too much, but I don't remember what where or when.

Thank you, Jackie!

4/19 - due to surgery my face was very swollen. Three hours of sleep again last night. Made minestrone soup today. Finally the weather is suppose to get better and I can start to go for walks. Still super hungry.

4/20 new challenge, I went to the dentist yesterday, he did not see anything wrong. I went back today and my last tooth which is root canal is infected I could hardly drink water. Maybe the steroids caused it. brain surgery and infected tooth. going to get tough to beat this.

4/21- goal for the week, is to cut out salt and sugar and see if this helps for swelling. Going to have a strong week.

4/19 - at Zion NP, 26,000 steps and I think over calories by 200 or so, dang trail mix! Hidden Canyon trail with 850' elevation gain. It's easy to get lots of steps when the bathroom is 350 steps away.
4/20 - Lots of car time this day, no significant walking. Almost 10K steps, over calories by 200 or so, just not watching as carefully as I could or logging as carefully as I could. Feeling great though and super strong.

4/21 - stepson's wedding! Lovely day. I bet I was over calories. Really no way to track so I will call it a 2500 calorie day and be done. 10K steps.
