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....

Second day of my first round! WooHoo!!!

Round 38

4/18
4/19
4/20 291
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.

My seventh round? Already? Wow, time flies!

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.

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.

End of Round 37
17/04: 167.4 Goals ✅ Hopefully, back on track

Round 38 (Round 30 for me. Female, 5'2" aged 71, weight in lbs)
My birthday is 2 days away and I am still 12 lbs from my dream weight. Maybe a whoosh for my birthday?

18/04: 167.6 Goals ✅ What is it that makes us revert so easily to our old ways?
I have really been tightly back on track for the past week, and then last night we had a friend in for coffee and as we were chatting I suddenly realised that I had absentmindedly munched several of the biscuits hubby had put out with the coffee. (not sure exactly how many, lol! as we were having such a great chat.) Not going to beat myself up, but wondering how do we combat the old habits which just seem to lurk there, waiting until we are off-guard, to sabotage all our hard work?

Maybe all we can do is to be aware of it happening, and make sure that we stop as soon as we realise what we are doing. I am continually reminded that being fit and healthy has to be a life time commitment, and is not a quick fix.
19/04: 167.7 Goals ✅
20/04: 167.2 Goals ✅ Birthday today. I'm not going to use this as an excuse to go over the top. Goal is to eat a little, drink a little, and be merry a lot.
21/04: 167.2 Goals ✅ Spent my birthday in the garden enjoying the sun. A perfect pamper day.
22/04: 166.9 Goals ✅ Had an very active day yesterday out in the fresh air.

Day/Weight/Comment
18/04 - 217lb - The sun has put me in such a good mood, and I managed to hold myself back and only had 1 gin & slimline tonic in the garden, woo!
19/04 – 214lb - I think a fluke but I'm taking it! Going to take a walk in the sunshine on my lunch break and then head to the gym this afternoon.
20/04 – 215.5lb – bit disappointed after yesterdays weigh in, but still only 0.5lb from my end of round target!
21/04 - 213.5lb - a very up/down week so far, but the number is a lot lower than the start of the challenge so I can take a couple of small gains on the way!

22/04 - 213lb - still in the right direction!! Expecting a gain tomorrow after the weekend but will not let it deter me!

Nothing works unless you have a sustained calorie deficit over time. Anything will work if you have a sustained calorie deficit over time.

Motivation is overrated. What you need is education, willingness to eat less, a good plan, and discipline to stick to it.

1988 high school graduation 185-190lbs
weight on 1/29/18 = 234.5
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 194lbs start and finish but did see 192 for a couple days
4/18 – 196lbs – allowed myself a free for all day to end the free for all week. The next 10 days I plan on shifting from maintenance to weight loss program. Should drop 2-3 in the first days then a couple more by the end of 10 day challenge. 190lbs on or before 4/27 is my goal
4/19 – 195lbs – still predicting a quick drop if I don’t have adult beverages. Eat before logging and WOW does prime rib have a lot of calories. Homemade and worth every bite. Managed to ride bike for 30 minutes
4/20 – 194lbs – good thing lunch was on target. Eat 5 hotdogs at a gathering last night and had 1 to many cocktails! It’s a fishing weekend so I probably will not eat right the next 2 days
4/21 – 192lbs – eat kinda okay yesterday but didn’t plan on 2 pound change.

4/22 – 192lbs – not bad for a weekend. Hope the fish are biting this afternoon. had the last salmon in the freezer a week or so ago.

My fourth round.
