4/18 96.8kg really struggling this week. I have a history of depression and I'm hoping this is just a small dip and the black cloud will float on by soon…

4/24 96.1kg black cloud settled for a few days so I took a few days off weighing myself! Was a bit of a big dip but seems to be gone again, for now!
I'll be happy just to get under 96kg this round!

SW 235 lbs
GW 170 lbs
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!
4/22 - 235.5 - lovely sunny day here, went for a walk along the beach and got a small ice-cream cone. Definitely eat better on the week days! Still have dinner to go and want to do a short run tonight. Hope everyone is having a great weekend
4/23 - 235 - got super lazy and hungry after my run last night, so we got a takeway kebab (chicken shish so not totally the devil) and chips. Still managed to eat under my calories though whoop whoop Running home from work tonight.
4/24 - 234 - Surprised that I lost weight again today - because it was pizza night in my house - but I was still under calories by 500 after running home. Not sure how much of this weeks weight loss is just water weight?

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.
23/04: 167.0 Goals ✅
24/04: 166.7 Goals ✅ No time to post yesterday. Hoping this trend continues.

4/18: 109.8kg/242.0lbs - Went to the football last night, we lost 3-1 but the atmosphere was amazing and I didn't buy a pie - winning. Starting to feel that I'm gaining a better relationship with food! Sidenote: I have wanted to be below 110kg for sooooo long, today is a great day.
4/19: 109.7kg/241.8lbs – A step in the right direction! Nice 11km run this morning, changed up my route and it was very scenic, got my breakfast and lunch meal prepped and off to the gym tonight! Refraining myself from finding a beer garden after work despite this weather being so nice!
4/20: 108.9kg/240.0lbs – Not feeling good today, had to cut this morning’s run very short as my stomach turned – shame really but I’ll try again on Sunday. Buzzing with this drop though – out for food and beers tonight so this will change.. (Also updated my HW as it was incorrect)
4/21: 109.1kg/240.5lbs – Feeling bloated, but the weather was lovely. Dragged myself on an 18km in the sunshine, time wasn’t great and I think I need to start looking at some energy gels to keep me going.
4/22: 108.1kg/238.3lbs – Expected a drop after such a long run, rest day today even had a couple of beers.
4/23: 108.4kg/239.0lbs – Monday, back to work and back to my meal preps. Lunch for the week consisting of: Lemon & Herb chicken, sticky rice, broccoli & sweetcorn. Gym tonight too. Good news also, my BMI has gone from Obese to overweight - WOOO.
4/24: 108.3kg/238.8lbs – Back down a little, a step in the right direction. 8km run this morning, gym tonight and then 16km tomorrow morning!

Don't panic!!! Please don't panic. Go easy on yourself When we're run down, our bodies can react in all sorts of negative ways. Take time to get yourself back up to your normal self and slowly get back to making the right food choices. You've got this mamabear!!12 -

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!

4/24 - 137.0 - usual Tuesday morning drop - still hopeful for a 136 finish by Friday .... Food prepped, water bottle refilled and gym tonight ..... Repeat after me - I CAN DO THIS, I CAN DO THIS, I CAN DO THIS .....

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.

My 3rd round!
Round 36 - SW 167 EW 168
Round 37 - SW 168.2 EW 166.6
SW - 172 on 1/14/18
CSW - 166.6
CEW - 165
UGW - 130
Day/Weight/Comment
4/18 - 166.6 - Good way to start this next challenge. The last couple times it seemed I'd gain weight right away and the rest of the challenge was trying to get rid of my 1st day gain. Hoping it warms up and the rain holds off so I can get out and walk. Looking forward to the next few days and I'm determined to make my goal.
4/19 - 166.6 - I've never had the same number for 3 days in a row before (I've only been weighing myself everyday for 20 some days now) so it's interesting to see. Since I started logging every meal and keeping track of my exercise for the past 40 days and weighing in every day for the past 20 I'm starting to see and understand what works for me and what I need to do to lose the weight. I'm sure it'll always be a learning experience but one that I'm willing to learn. Interested to see tomorrows weigh-in.
4/20 - 166.6 - So I guess I'm going to be stuck at this weight now but if I'm not showing a gain, I'm happy. Need to plan meals out for this weekend so I can stay on track, Saturday and Sunday are usually days I slack off on and then regret it come Monday morning but I want to prevent that from happening this time. I can have a fun, healthy weekend.
4/21 - ?? - tried to weigh in this morning but the battery died in my scale and I'll take it as a sign that I'd be unhappy with what it would tell me as I indulged in many butter covered perogies last night. Have a busy day today though and I'm ready with healthy snacks already packed and lots of water. Will try to get out and buy a battery some time today so I can weigh in tomorrow and keep myself accountable for those damn, delicious perogies.
4/22 - ?? - still no battery for my scale, probably won't weigh myself until Tuesday morning unless I make a special trip into town and pick some things up. I had a good day yesterday though, it was busy but I was ready with healthy snacks, a chicken broccoli rice bowl for lunch, a light dinner and lots of water. Wasn't able to work out but got plenty of steps in, feeling optimistic for when I can weigh in.
4/23 - ?? - Still no scale but I will have one back tomorrow, interested to see what I will weigh. Weekends are usually hard for me but it was really nice out and I got a lot of steps in all weekend and I had my meals better planned out so I'd say this weekend was better than most my weekends. Hoping tomorrow weight reflects it. Happy Monday!
** 166.2 @ 2:50 pm
4/24 - 166.2 - feeling optimistic that I can be 165 by Friday. My eating habits have been on point, I'm at or slightly below my calories, just need to get myself exercising more. I have been getting a lot of steps in since it's been nice out but I haven't been doing anything to get my heart rate up and so today since it's raining I'll head back to the gym. I've got 3 days to make my goal, I've got this.

4/22 - 209
4/23 - 210. There is the jump from the past few days. Been eating right at ‘’maintenance” over the weekend.

4/18 215.3 here we go again…..good luck, everyone!
4/19 214.4
4/20 214.0
4/21 213.6 Still doing good. No mindless snacking…that’s what would always sabotage any weight loss for me. That, and eating way too much at mealtimes. Paying attention to how much I’m actually eating makes a big difference. Also, making healthier choices of what I eat. Have a good weekend, all!
4/22 212.6
4/23 211.8 I’m surprised my weight is down again today. I figured it was time for it to hold steady for a few days before beginning that downward trend again. Nevertheless….I’ll take it. Just finished a cup of tea and some plain Greek yogurt for breakfast. Does anyone else notice that when you miss breakfast for whatever reason, you’re not as hungry during the day then on days that you eat breakfast? Yesterday I had a cup of tea in AM, but didn’t have time to eat before I had to leave. Wasn’t hungry until early afternoon. But when I do eat something for breakfast, I’m usually thinking about lunch by 11 AM and find it more difficult not to want to eat a whole lot more throughout the day. I wonder why that is?
