SW Round 42 - 200 lbs
EW Round 42 - 189 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07 189 lbs. AM did various 30 day challenges. No other workouts. Worked late and ate too many calories. Back on track tomorrow- no matter what the scale shows.
6/08 189 lbs worked out in Park, did 30 day challenges. Back on track with calories.
6/09 189 lbs. walked 8.8 miles. Overate calories by 1741 - eating out of boredom. At grandkids school function and didn’t have anything to do - so I ate. Expect to see at least a 3 lb gain tomorrow. Not for this one day but for the entire week - has been full of days going over my calorie limit.
6/10 189 lbs. walked over a total of 7 miles today (3 different walks). Ran/walked over 4 miles. Still managed to overeat by 944 calories. Still looking for that gain.
6/11 193 lbs. I found the gain. Feels like a weight is lifted off my shoulders. Walked over 2+ miles today. Then took a body sculpting class in the PM. Still went over calories by 1485. Tomorrow I take control of this ride. I have to stop this merry go round of waiting for a gain to get back to program. Okay buckle up Anita cuz this about to be a heck of a ride.

6/12 192 lbs. alternating brisk & easy walk for 7.39 miles in 2 hours 28 mins. Went over calories by 81. Made great choices for breakfast and lunch. Pretzels for dinner (what I wanted). The sodium content is way too much. Got to cut back down to three times a week. So I won’t have any pretzels until Sunday

Hi. I am Donna. I am on the low carb keto diet because I need to lose weight but also quickly lower my blood glucose levels since I am Type 2 diabetic and my glucose numbers got to a very dangerous level. So far it is working. My weight loss goals are also being met although I have found when it comes to weight loss, all true diets will work if you stick with it consistantly and try to get in some physical fitness as well. This is my first 10 day challenge. Good luck to us all (no matter which type of diet or physically activity you have chosen). We can do this folks!

6/07 193.8 lbs. I Had a doctor appointment today and found out my blood levels are all perfect including my cholesterol so I am thrilled. Dr. supports my keto diet and gave me some more tips. Stuck to my diet very good today although I still battle occasional cravings.

6/08 195.1 lbs. Darn that BBQ I attended anyway. I SHOULD NOT have had dessert either. Tomorrow will be better. I'm human and sometimes fail. But I always jump back on the horse and ride again, so I vow to be faithful tomorrow....

6/09 194.6 Going in the right directions finally. I have walked 1.5 - 3.0 miles each day including today. I have been steadfast to the diet today. I am proud of myself today.

6/10 194.6 I walked 13,180 steps today with lots of physical activity. Most of this was work related and not repetitive exercise, but still healthy on the heart and burns a couple hundred calories. I stuck to my diet today with very little temptation. Some days are just better than others!

6/11 193.6….. Down one pound. Slow movement. I have Intermittent fasted each and every day on the 12:8 plan. Today I also practiced an Egg Fast with very low calories to give myself a jolt as I wonder if I am hitting a bit of a plateau. Had 12,812 steps by 11:53 pm. Took a nice 1.5 mile moderate paced walk. REMEMBER FOLKS, ANY PROGRESS IS STILL PROGRESS. SOME ACCOMPLISHMENTS ARE NSV'S. I REMAIN PROUD OF US ALL.

6/12 191.0 whoo hoo. Finally lost some weight which likely includes water weight, but Hey! It needed to go too! Also, I finally went to the bathroom (if you know what I mean). Sometimes hard to go on this particular diet due to lack of whole grains. I Didn’t feel too well today. Less than 6000 steps on my fitbit. No walk in the neighborhood. But I stuck to my diet very well. That’s the report on my physical. My mental and emotional state was very good because I feel I scored a scale victory. I’m just a smidgen from the 180’s. whoo hoo! This challenge is keeping me honest and keeping me real. I hope it is helping all of you too.

6/07 - 139.8 - I did a yoga class yesterday for the first time in 2 years. Every muscle in my body is screaming at me!!!!

6/08 - 141.9. eeek!!
6/09 - 141.0 - muscles are nearly back to normal so went to the gym!
6/10 - 141.0 - need to cut back on the snacking so I'm trying something new.....only 3 snacks a day (doesn't matter what it is). At the moment its probably way over 10 a day. Anything and everything that's got sugar in it.
It's 11:20am and I've already had 2! It's probably going to be a tough day!
6/11 - 140.6 - Thanks for the tips @jerier
I had 5 snacks yesterday. Big improvement on last week! The 'table of fair game' at work is the worse for me. There is always cake, biscuits etc and (at the moment) I can't resist!
Off to the gym to try to burn off some of those chocolate calories.
6/12 - forgot to weigh myself!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/08 - 62.6kg (-0.4kg) - Christened our new BBQ yesterday and got a lot of veggies in. Resisted the last half a krispy kreme hanging about the house. I wish my partner would just hurry up and eat it already!
6/07 - 62.6kg (0.0kg)- Weigh in was a pleasant surprise after a big carby dinner last night. I succumbed to that stupid half a doughnut as well - I just got sick of looking at it haha. Lots of incidental exercise today and a light dinner planned.
6/08 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - I'm very excited and very dubious. I'm off sick with a cold so it is likely that the loss is dehydration. Still cool to see that 61.xx number

Aiming for my goal weight of under 60kg by my birthday on the 9th July so it's potentially only one month to go! Let's do this!!
6/09 - 62.3kg (+0.4kg)- I'm ok with this. Had a BBQ at a friend's house with lots of delicious food and drinks. Still trending downwards too

6/10 - 62.3kg (0.0kg) - Had a light eating day yesterday and today. Feeling motivated and super excited to see my weight staying under the 63s (despite a little weekend indulgence)
6/11 - 62.6kg (+0.3kg) -

Note to self: Long-term consistency will overcome daily fluctuations. Keep focused on your targets, keep doing what you're doing and you will achieve your goals.
6/12 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - Bye bye weekend weight. Went for another run last night which was easier than the run last week

Also, I think I might be approaching the upper limit of my maintenance range. For the first time in my life I think I can say that I like my body - a combination of weight loss and self-acceptance/love. Only took 30 years!

6/13 - 61.7kg (-0.2kg) - I am expecting a stressful work situation to come to a head today. I refuse(!) to be derailed by stress eating so am planning a long walk in the woods to relax and reflect before coming home for dinner.

Been a crazy month - Missed the end of round 40 and the last two rounds! Been away three times, been to lots of family events and never got round to weighing and logging! But so need to get back to this challenge – missed it and seeing everyone else's posts! Not expecting a massive rise on the scale but sure there will be a few extra pounds

Very busy 7 weeks ahead (3 weekends away for Cheerleading Competitions, weekend away for sons wedding, daughters, sons and granddaughters birthdays, friends wedding, my birthday) - its never ending and there's never a month where there isn't something happening but its not a reason - its an excuse! So I'm back to it with a new target of 135lb before my holiday at the start of August - so 8 weeks - which I'm sure is more than do-able - first weigh in on Thursday morning..... Can't wait to get back into it......

6/07 - 141.20lb - ouch! Don't like seeing the 140's again - time to focus! 5 and a bit rounds till my holiday to lose half a stone (7lb to our non uk challengers!) - so aiming this round to get to 139.xx or lower of course! Tough with a cheer weekend this weekend but not going to get any easier as the weeks go by....... Enjoy everyone

6/08 - DNW - totally forgot to weigh - out the habit!
6/09 - Cheerleading weekend away - no scale
6/10 - Cheerleading weekend away - no scale
6/11 - DNW but back on track today! Mad, long and tiring cheerleading weekend and home very late last night so this morning was an achievement just getting everyone up and out the house on time for work and school! Good food day planned today though, plenty of water and still aim to see a loss before the end of the round....

6/12 - 142.50lb - uugghh!! Not a good start to the day - but guess this is what happens when I don't log and track for a month followed by a weekend away where I ate way too much convenience food and carbs! But the damage could have been so much worse - and guess the most important thing is that I'm back to it! Friends wedding next Friday so got a real focus for the next 10 days

Although usual events sent to try me - daughters 15th birthday this week and Fathers Day on Sunday - always something!

6/13 - 141.40lb - feeling less bloated today, went to the gym last night and only had a light dinner afterwards. Hoping weigh in tomorrow will see the end of the weekend excesses and take me below this rounds start weight and I can then start making progress rather than playing the weekend catch up game!

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, again, I stayed in the 180's in the last round barely. I would like to really secure myself in the 80's, so I can move on!

6/07 - 156.6 - hello my friend

6/08 - 156.6 - Nice to see this number again. Had high amount of sodium yesterday so might see an increase the next day or two but tried to drink lots of water too. Busy weekend starting today with some kind of food get together each day so will need to have lots of will power and really pay attention to what I eat so I don't gain.

6/09 - 156.6 - hmm....

6/10 - 156.2 - Was at a wild game dinner last night so I didn't log any food as I wasn't sure how but I only had a small plate and 2 spiked sparkling waters and a light lunch before so my calorie intake shouldn't of been too horrible. Weigh in is also a few hours late as we stayed up really late and I enjoyed sleeping in. Hoping to get a walk in today between the rain storms. Happy Sunday!

6/11 - 156.2 - So close to my mini goal but also very close to the day I wanted to meet it by. Making sure I get my water in, I eat healthy and I'm going to throw in a couple extra workouts the next few days to help me get there. Was pretty relaxed this weekend when it came to exercising and my steps but it's time to up the game.

6/12 - 155.0 - please be true, please be true, please be true! I've been working hard the past few days to see this number and praying it'll stick around. I'll celebrate tomorrow if I see it again because this is my goal weight for this round plus my mini goal I wanted to reach by the 15th. And when I say celebrate, I mean with a happy dance and a new dress to wear on our anniversary.

6/13 - 154.8 - Looks like I'm happy dancing and buying a new dress! At this weight I'm 20 pounds down from the number that made me finally commit to losing weight because I never wanted to see that number again. Joining this group had been the best thing for me and I will continue on with the second half of my weight lose journey, right here, round after round. Thank you all for helping me reach this point!

Day/Weight/Comment

6/07 - 167.5 - I'm down today, but we celebrated a birthday last night and I went over my weight loss calories. I'm expecting a little bump up tomorrow, but this is a nice way to start.

6/08 - 166.5 - I got on the scale 3 times to be sure. I doubt this sticks, but it's so nice to see that number!

6/09 - 167.5 - I had a feeling this was where it was going to be today. I've also just celebrated my husband's birthday with cake and margarita's, so tomorrow probably won't be much better, but I'll be back on track after tomorrow.

6/10 - 168.5 - Woohoo, those margarita's with the salt rimmed glasses were good! I am so glad I joined this group so I can be held accountable for these little celebrations and then get back on the wagon. The worst thing I could do is to let this weight gain take hold and keep gaining a couple pounds every month as I've done in the past.

6/11 - 168.5 - I'm glad the gaining has stopped. I hope to see a drop in the next couple days.

6/12 - 167.5 - I'm very happy with this.

6/13 - 167.5 - After a 10 day stay, our out of town family left for home this morning, so my eating and steps should stabilize now. I would love to see that 166.5 number again before this challenge is over.

My official weekly weigh in, is Tuesday evening @ TOPS, so my ticker tape will reflect that loss.

My daily weight is on my home scale, so I can monitor how my week is going.

My ultimate goal is 175lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

Just Give Me 10 Days

Hello! Joining in late. Please don’t flay me if I’m breaking some kind of unspoken rule. I weigh myself everyday but don’t log it because I think I’ll jinx myself. I usually log loss once it stays under for a few days. This might be a great way for me to document my weight every day.

5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again and then some.

Round 43 (My Round 1)
Round Goal: Familiarize self with challenge format. Overall downward trend.

6/07- Entered round late.
6/08- Entered round late.
6/09- Entered round late.
6/10- 240.4 Proud of myself for exhibiting self control yesterday. Had to go to a Chinese buffet for a lunch thing. I made better food choices, did not over-eat, and stayed under my calorie budget for the day.
6/11- 239.8 Woohoo! Still cautiously optimistic as I’m still waiting for that initial massive loss to steady out. 10lbs in 2 weeks seems too good to be true. Does anyone know if that initially loss comes back a little? Did good yesterday food wise.
6/12- 239.2 Pizza was provided at lunch meeting. I walked away and ate my tuna instead. I did go back and ate the toppings off a slice of the chicken and veggies. Still a win, I think. I was just under calories goal today but felt hungry. Need to eat more protein.
6/13- 238! <insert Austin Powers voice>. Yea Baby! Trucking along nicely. Under calories yesterday but did not feel hungry. Onwards and downwards!

6/7 / 232 / Not a shocker given that I was up at 4 am to get on a train.

6/8 / 231 / Back to a more normal weigh in time. Yesterday was mostly train rides, though I did get walking in. High sodium and not enough water, so I'm pleased to be at 231. Woke up with a killer headache. I don't know if it's sinus or lack of caffeine (I've been trying to cut back). I started today with a big breakfast, so we'll see how my calories shake out.

6/9 / 230.6 / Sinus headache again (I'm pretty sure it's sinus).

6/10 / 230.4 / Slowly creeping down. And headache AGAIN. I've gone a tiny bit over calories the past couple of days. I've been eating bigger breakfasts than normal for me, and it's not a winning strategy. It's not enough to cause me to gain. It will just slow my loss. But today, I'm getting that back down to my normal. I've abandoned giving up caffeine right now.

6/11 / 231.4 / Bah.

6/12 / 230.4 / All day on the 11th in jury duty. Very under calories, though even more under on any hydration until late.

6/13 / 232 / I've got some digestive things going on that are no fun. I'm doing well, calorie-wise, so I'm not worried about this weigh in. I keep missing my exercise goal, though.

Round 43
My Round 1
SW: 132.4 (6/7/18)
GW: 123 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07- 132.4 - lots of brown rice and broccoli for lunch and dinner. Need to make sleep a priority.
6/08 - 133.2 -always annoying when you eat no processed food, lots of veggies and come in heavier. Gym and yoga. Intermittent fast from 6pm-11am.
6/09 132.8. Yay. Was expecting to have gained weight as we did sushi last night but I don’t use say sauce so winning. I slept through my morning alarm to go run. Sleep continues to be a need. Plan to run later and indoor Rock climb.
6/10-133. I had 2 beers and pasta for dinner last night. I needed the carbs. Lots of physical activity so came in under my calorie allowance. 2 hour solid effort bike ride this am. Goal is to not “reward” myself with junky food and /or beer but rather healthy foods and just one beer or glass of wine. I got sleep last night and feel so much better!
6/11 - 132.8. intermittent fast. Last night I ate a frozen veggie pizza. Not the best but not the worst. Enjoyed adult beverages, too. Early dinner last night to prepare for morning fast. Headed to the gym and then a short hill repeat run.
6/12 - 133. Drag. But I am not surprised. Work has been very busy. Popped another veggie pizza in the oven. I only ate 2/3 of it this time. I ate a big arugula salad first. I know I am making good decisions and eating within and under my calorie allowance. Eventually I think things will give
6/13 -135. Good times. I am actually OK with this as I was expecting it. Did a nice workout at the climbing gym yesterday and went out to eat for a bday. I went 23 cal over my budget. I chose a fish sandwich on rye bread, a plain baked potato and I had two beers. It’s incredible how much sodium they put in food when you eat out. The cool thing is my harness for climbing is getting bigger. Ha. So clothes fitting better even if the scale mocks me today.

6/07 - Thursday - 198.4 - Nice! Last night was crazy busy, still ate well. Packed and ready to leave from work! I am committed to being present in the moment while away, but also plan to keep up my habit and log in to MFP each day. No scales. Aim to maintain while still enjoying!
6/08 - Friday - Traveling - ate at maintenance today! And yesterday. Aiming to do the same tomorrow and Sunday!
6/09 - Saturday - Traveling - another day at maintenance!
6/10 - Sunday - Traveling - Ate at maintenance again!
6/11 - Monday - 199.8 - Holy moly I cannot believe this! Perhaps I'm a bit dehydrated after traveling? Although I usually retain water after a flight. I had a lovely vacation with my family - it was not entirely centered around food but I certainly enjoyed myself eating instead of stressing about every bite. It was so nice to get away from it all. It was also fun to enjoy things this weekend and not feel bad about it. I'm not on a diet this time around - it's a lifestyle change. So I'm not stressing about "cheating" or having a few not so perfect days. Life is for living and I did a lot of that this weekend! The food I ate fueled me to wake up and watch the sunrise on the beach. It fueled me to swim and play in the ocean for hours. It was food I shared with loved one's. It was food that made me smile. I thought I might go home with a few extra pounds of weight, but it seems I have found the right balance and I get to come home with a few hundred memories, a heart full of love, and gratitude for the things my body allows me to do.
6/12 - Tuesday - 201.2 - Yesterday was tough - I was so tired, and I don't do well with anything when tired. I made it to the grocery store - avoided the chips in the check out line - but ate 2 slices of deli meat when I got home. Cooked and ate dinner, ate some ice cream, ate some chips, ate some more ice cream. Oi. That hasnt happened in a while but between the indulgences over the weekend and the lack of sleep I got a bit out of control. Logged it and I'm moving on! Back to my usuals today - smoothie, leftovers for lunch, popcorn for a snack, and meats thawing for dinner tonight. Lots of water to flush out ALL this sodium I've consumed over the past 5 days, expecting the gain to stick around a few days but hopeful to be back in onderland by rounds end!
6/13 - Wednesday - 200.6 - Ate within calories yesterday! Lots of water and fresh air really helped. I also did a little research on lack of sleep and weight. Turns out not getting enough sleep does indeed cause hormonal shifts that make you hungrier, and hungrier for fatty foods. So, I got to bed early again and I'm ready to crush another day! Got my smoothie, wrap with chips (portioned out) for lunch, and an extra scoop of protein powder for a snack because my protein goals have been falling short lately. Visualizing the scale being in the 100's by Saturday. Visualization helps me with a lot of things - I used to drive crazy distances and I'd visualize myself getting home at the end of it and it really helped me through those drives, so I kept it as a tool, and I'm going to try applying it here. Visualizing myself strong, fit, healthy, and happy!

This cracks me up because I have found myself sneaking food and burying the evidence low in the trash can to hide it...from who???? I too am a sneaky liar. What a realization!

6/07 168.00

6/08 166.8 Had a tough PM last night and overindulged in carbs, surprising that it didn't show up on the scale but I am grateful. I will get some exercise today for sure and hopefully get rid of the bloat!

6/09 166.6 I succumbed again last night to sweets after dinner, going over my calorie budget again. My husband is out of town and I feel like this is my "excuse" or the cause of my lack of motivation in the evening. I am surprised yet again that it didn't show up on the scale, but I will not push my luck for a third day in a row. I started the day both days really great, its just the 8 pm and later that has me struggling. Or not really struggling, just kind of saying what the heck, and going for it. Today is a new day. I can't change the past only move forward.

6/10 166.6 3rd night in a row where I overindulged.

6/11 166.6 so incredibly grateful to read everyone's challenges so similar to mine. It is hard sometimes to remember that it is a journey, a process, to enjoy the ride and not be so hard on myself. I had a really great day yesterday, a little over my calorie allowance, but I feel really good this morning because I made good choices. Today is going to be a great day!

6/12 166.8 I am actually super ok with this small gain, knowing that weighing myself daily will not be the best indicator of long term success. I was on plan and have already mapped out my meal plan for tomorrow. NSV-Maintained my calm all day in spite of outside forces attempting to lure me into stress. Eating on plan with one small exception of a bite of a cinnamon roll. I did indulge in 2 fiber one bars which I need to limit to 1 max a day tomorrow.
