5/28 Didn't weight
5/29 141.6
5/30 141.0
5/31 140.3 I'm so close to my 1st goal!!!!! My final goal seems so obtainable, but I'll be leaving the country on the 9th to visit family for a month. I know I'll be loved through food, but I need to stay focused and hopefully model some healthy eating habits.
6/01 140.2
6/02 140.2 I'm. So. Close. I fit into my size 6 jeans!!!!!! They were super tight, but they fit.
6/03 141.8 Sushi and 1 beer last night. That's ok. Lots of water.
6/04 140.4 I got measured and saw that I lost some more inches. That's so motivating.
6/05 141 Cheese and sourdough bread. Hmmm. I ate my stress. But I'm wearing size 6 skorts!!!
6/06 1417 -
I’m in. Was feeling so much slimmer – and then I looked at my weight report for the last year and realized I was 162 one year ago … so since Feb. I’ve lost the weight that I gained the 8 months previous. The reports don’t go back that far but I think that I joined when I was freaking out about hitting 160 in 2015. All of this just reminded me how much we adjust to a new “normal” and to a) realize I’m not slim, better than I was but still much, much to go, so don’t get sloppy in my new habits b) celebrate the little victories but also keep an eye on the long term goal.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/28 - 162.6
5/29 – 162.4 Didn’t do all that great yesterday as is usual with an errand day but did go to the gym
5/30 - 163
5/31 - 162.8 Glad it is not worse. Two more high stress days with lots of running around & internal wondering how to get everything done at home before going on another trip.
6/01 – 162.4 Home all day today except for gym. Yay!
6/02 – 162.6 Did go to the gym but did snack a little in the evening, arg. So, inner self, how does snacking in any way help the fact that a deer disfigured the Japanese Maple that I’d just planted this spring and was coming along so nicely? If I can break that link, frustration/worry=snacking, I think I’ll have success.
6/03 – 163.4 Too much fat yesterday. Now I have a headache, feeling generally draggy and retaining water.
6/04 – 162.8 Have to be more diligent charting the calories so I don’t go over in the evening. I don’t think I’m doing too bad but too busy and a little extra can sneak in so easily (and turn out to be more than a little!) Gym today but two evenings out so have to be vigilant and plan ahead.
6/05 – 162.4 Would sure like to get past this barrier.
6/06 – 162 Sigh, guess I should be glad it is not up. Shows again that I can’t afford a few days of slackness on watching the food.9 -

5/28 169.8 BMI=25.07 Losing inches off hips/waist!!!! I feel great!! Walking much more...+ more weight resistance. Recomping with gradual ease into maintenance.
5/29 169.4
A new low!
10 day moving average = 169.6
5/30 169.6
10 day moving average= 169.4!!
5/31 169.4 BMI = 25.01 SO CLOSE LOL
10 day moving average= 169.4
My new skinny jeans are loose! Guess I can put them in the dryer now :P
6/1 169.2 BMI = 24.98 WOW!!
10 day moving average = 169.3 YAY!!!
The pants I could not pull up over my knees 2 years 5 months ago (TO MY HORROR) are now a
zipped, snapped, and totally comfortable as of today! HUGE NSV for me since they are from 12-15 years ago and have smaller waist then pants these days.
These last few pounds are *finally* whittling my waist slowly over time.
6/2 169.4 Amazing given 2-hour hike in hills, 14.6K steps, in hot weather... Thought for sure the scale would be up. Hydrated continuously in smaller amounts, so maybe that helped.
Best part: not sore at all!! It’s amazing what our bodies can do. Truly.
10 day moving average = 169.3
10 day moving average loss/week now 0.2 (had been 0.1 for 5 days) so I’m happy.
I’m definitely building muscle. Happy I am eating more & working out more, at slight calorie deficit. It is hard to adjust to smaller bits of weight loss, but I’m feeling much stronger & leaner-ish! LOL
Went on another very hard, hot, hilly hike today. I think I’m becoming addicted — now that it doesn’t hurt to do so.
6/3 169.8
10 day moving average: 169.3
I think my fitness band might over-count calories burned when I do a really hard hike. Am watching to adjust if necessary in a couple of days or a week.
6/4 168.8. BMI = 24.92. (0.02 to go!)
10 day moving average: 169.2
I did another long, flat walk yesterday. Really enjoying my walks.
WOW: will hit GW in 0.2 lbs & adj GW in 3lbs!
End of June marks 2-1/2 years on this journey.

Couldn’t bear recreating it...

10 day moving average: 168.8
such a sight to see!
“Your BMI is 24.8, which is considered Normal.”
2 years, 5 months, 6 days
What a transformation- people don’t recognize me. I feel Great. I wish I had been able to feel how effortlessly and painfree I could move being thin when I was overweight and yes, obese. I would have been much more motivated all along.
Now for the final 3.2 lbs as I’m guessing I’m actually 5’8-1/2”
RGW: 169.8 or lower
GW: 168.6 [BMI Normal @ 5’9”]
Adj. GW (as of June 4) 165.8 [BMI Normal @ 5’ 8.5”]
& 10-day moving average decreasing or staying the same.11 -
@MadisonMolly2017, Congrats! So happy for you to have reached a normal BMI! Being that in between 1/2" can be a pain when calculating bodyfat and BMI. I'm 5'7.5" and always have to decide 5'7" or 5'8" I usually choose the lower number.1

started this challenge at round 27, at 227.8. I ended round 38 at 194. That is a 33 pound loss! I love this challenge! It goes against everything I USED to believe about weighing in daily, and has taught me to really listen to my body, not get discouraged by small set backs, and to celebrate the small victories!
So I stayed in the 180's in the last round barely. I totally missed the last few days of the last challenge, weighed my self everyday, and truly thought I had recorded it LOL until I looked today. I think this time of year, truly is TOO busy. But, I am back and ready to go!

Ultimate Goal: 175 lbs, reevaluate at that point
May:
28: Vacation
29: Vacation
30: We had an 18-hour delay on our flight because of storms in Minneapolis. I ended up spending 9 hours on a plane, only to land back in Denver where we started. Slept at the airport, and finally made in all the way home at 11pm. I did really, really well with intuitive eating until living at the airport and on planes for so long.
31: I didn't weight in. Spent the day in bed until about 1:30pm. Holy jet lag!
June:
1: 203.4... Up 2 pounds since my vacation started. I imagine it's all water weight. There was not sufficient access to water on the 3 flights it took to get home, and I certainly didn't get enough yesterday because of sleeping so much. Back into a normal flow today, so tomorrow's weight should reflect that.
2: 201.4... I'm curious now if I did actually lose weight on my trip. Maybe there's more water weight to come off because of the 24 hours it took to travel home. I'm taking the family to a movie in a few minutes, and I always have popcorn. I'll try to keep it to a reasonable amount though. I'd really like to see onederland this round, so that'll keep me motivated.
3: 200.8...I guess I did okay with the popcorn!
4: 200.9... Normal fluctuation. I'm still hoping to see onederland this round!
5: 199.9!!!...Hello Onederland! It's nice to see you again. That brief fling we had almost 2 years ago was so much fun! I've thought of you almost every day since then, and I'm really ready to commit this time!
6: 200.1... No worries here. Next round will be consistently in onederland. See you all in R43
There's no such thing as failure; only feedback.9 -

Round 42 (Round 1 for me)
Stats: Female, 53, 5’4”
HW: 281 lbs
SW: 200 lbs
GW: 195 lbs
UGW: 140 lbs
NSV Goal: to be truthful about my weight and my eating habits/routine
Day/Weight/Comment
5/28. 200 lbs. logged EVERYTHING I ate today. I had to force myself to do so. I can fool the apps but my body is showing what I eat anyway!!! Might as well be real with the apps!
5/29 199 lbs. logged everything- went over calorie limit by 39. Tomorrow I will work hard to not go over the limit. Planning is the key.
5/30 199 lbs. logged everything. The ugly lunch and the hideous dinner. I was all set to eat chicken breast and veggies for dinner. Then I saw krispy Krunchy chicken on 125th st. I HAD to try it. Oh my was it disgusting. Gotta kick the habit of every new place I see, I gotta try the food. The majority of the time, I am disappointed in the taste of the food.
5/31 199 lbs. honest logging still going on. Unfortunately I didn’t eat enough today. Know planning helps with this. Will do so on Saturday.
6/01 195 lbs didn’t eat enough today. But I did eat my pretzels. That was good for me.
6/02 192 lbs ate healthy for breakfast and dinner. Ate pretzels for lunch (that’s what I wanted). Will not have pretzels on Sunday. Might help me eat healthier.
6/03 192 lbs. did not have pretzels today. Instead I baked the #2ingredientdough and #2ingredientpineapplecake. I only ate one serving of each. Proud of myself. Man am I stuffed. Did 2.5 mile run this AM in park - doubly proud because I ran the entire thing. Getting back into the swing of running. Power walked 1 mile this AM also. Finished off today with several 30 day challenges Had more simple carbs today than usual. Let’s see if it affects me in the upcoming days.
6/04 189 lbs. Did the 30 day challenges this morning. Power walked 2.3 miles 12:30pm. Took cardio sculpting class from 6-7pm. Only had enough calories to eat 20 pretzels. That’s what I did. I actually didn’t think I could leave pretzels in the bag. But this and the other challenges I am in is making me even more aware of my eating habits and what I can do to change them.
6/05 189 lbs power walked for 1.03 miles this morning followed by a 1.64 mile run and ended with various 30 day challenges. Had to work late and I couldn’t make the cardio sculpting class (darn it!), so I did a brisk walk for 2.66 miles. Still honestly logging everything I eat.
6/06 189 lbs did 1.6 mile run at 1PM. Did a 1.2 mile run at 6:45P finished off today with a 1+ mile easy walk at 9PM.
Logging honestly helped me stop the bingeing because I didn’t want to see what I was eating in black and white. So I went back to carrying my journal to write down my feelings instead of eating them. All this attributed to the lost of 11 lbs (6 lbs more than the 5 lb goal). Feels fantastic.
Definitely need to do this again - it will help me get to my next mini goal of 175 lbs. by July 1st and most importantly continue to stop bingeing.
Love this challenge. Thank you @GrandmaJackie6 -

5/28: 133.6, came down with a pre-summer cold. Feel poopy and too tired to cook. Thank goodness I have no snack foods in my home.
5/29: 133.6, worked my 10 hour shift and felt okay. The I’m tired cravings did get to me, unfortunately, resulting on 6 mini Reese’s PB cups and a 330 calorie packet of peanuts being consumed.
5/30: 134.2, Never go to the market when you are tired; chips and salsa magically appeared in my bag. Of course, I ate some.
5/31: 132.6, Great date last night, he cooked smoked salmon, sautéed summer squash, tomato and avocado salad, and fresh strawberries for dessert. Long walk on the beach after dinner and spur of the moment movie at the theater (no popcorn for us!)
I think this one’s keeper. Both on the same page for health and eating style.
6/01: 131.8, a good health day. Food was on target and did quite a bit of walking around.
6/02: 135.4, salty, crunchy is my nemesis.
6/03: 133.8, more of the salty, crunchy junk at work.
6/04: 133.2, more of the same snacking...
6/05: 134.2
6/06: 134.2 Ending with a gain. No surprises there. Still stuck in tortilla chip binge hell.6 -

Finished off today with several 30 day challenges Had more simple carbs today than usual. Let’s see if it affects me in the upcoming days.
6/04 189 lbs. Did the 30 day challenges this morning. Power walked 2.3 miles 12:30pm. Took cardio sculpting class from 6-7pm. Only had enough calories to eat 20 pretzels. That’s what I did. I actually didn’t think I could leave pretzels in the bag. But this and the other challenges I am in is making me even more aware of my eating habits and what I can do to change them.
6/05 189 lbs power walked for 1.03 miles this morning followed by a 1.64 mile run and ended with various 30 day challenges. Had to work late and I couldn’t make the cardio sculpting class (darn it!), so I did a brisk walk for 2.66 miles. Still honestly logging everything I eat.
6/06 189 lbs did 1.6 mile run at 1PM. Did a 1.2 mile run at 6:45P finished off today with a 1+ mile easy walk at 9PM.
Logging honestly helped me stop the bingeing because I didn’t want to see what I was eating in black and white. So I went back to carrying my journal to write down my feelings instead of eating them. All this attributed to the lost of 11 lbs (6 lbs more than the 5 lb goal). Feels fantastic.
Definitely need to do this again - it will help me get to my next mini goal of 175 lbs. by July 1st and most importantly continue to stop bingeing.
Love this challenge. Thank you @grandmajackie.4
