Day/Weight/Comment
Round 2 for me.
6/17 Starting weight 193.8 walked 6 miles and 14,000 steps today which included some walking at the school track. Got in my water (96 degrees here today). Did well on my Keto diet. Did my 16:8 Intermittent fast. Everything went well today. I am hoping to get back to my most recent lowest weight soon which was 190.0 . Best wishes to you all. I just want you all to know how much you always inspire me…….
6/18 192.0 walked 7 miles and 14,000 steps today mostly “spring” cleaning. Intermittent fasted for 14 hours falling 2 hours short of my typical. Logged. Drank minimum water because I was so busy. I went over my allowable carbs of 20 (at about 30) but MFP allowed me much more if I wanted to eat back my burned calories. I was just extra hungry after all the work, but I stuck completely to my keto friendly foods. Tomorrow will be another busy day. I will make a better meal and water plan but I am happy with my progress so far.
6/19 I Honestly forgot to weigh this morning when I was awoken early with someone at the door. But my weight was probably up because I went on a binge last night with snacks, then I even got up and cooked! I drank a lot of water today to try to flush it. I walked over 18,000 steps including two miles at the school track. I did some very physical jobs in the house. BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THINGS AS OUTRUNNING THE FORK so tomorrow will tell the true tale and I know I will pay. Please folks, don’t follow in my example. It was not worth it. If I cheat next time, it will be more than just binging and overeating my diet foods. Anyway, keep me in mind and pray I’ll get strong again folks. I’ve been pretty weak off and on for the past month. I will try harder tomorrow as today was not the greatest either. I’m honest and faithful in my logging though which, at least, leaves me with remorse.
6/20 195.2 after the above binge night. Stuck to my diet very well today eating healthy keto friendly foods. Lots of walking at work and home logging over 6 miles and over 14,000 steps on my fitbit. Lots of coffee and tea today. Working on the water tonight. I continue to log every morsel and stare either victory or defeat directly in the eye. I join other strong confident women here on MFP in our quest to good health and happiness. I hope the scale tomorrow will reflect my sacrifices today. Nonetheless, I shall prevail!
6/21 193.0 much better today. Worked hard at work and at home. Got in almost 17,000 steps today, followed my diet, even when STARVING TO DEATH , but lacked some of my usual water because I was so busy. But I still logged over 64 oz which is so-so for my weight. Was just too busy to feel either strong or weak. Just flew through the day. I am still trying to get back to my lowest recent weight of 190.0 so I am (at the very least) not going backward. Good night and sweet dreams to all!
6/22 191.2 and still working my way back to 190.0. Had lots of steps in yesterday (17,000) and hope to get in over 10,000 today though I am stranded at home. I continue to use the 16:8 Intermittent fast to help. Yesterday my carbs were right on 20 net but my calories were too low (746) because I at mostly vegetables with only a little ground turkey. I actually had to add some cheese and walnuts to a snack to even reach the 746. I will try for higher calories today so my metabolism is not negatively affected while still maintaining my 20 net carb goal or less. But I never know what the day may bring. I hope everyone will enjoy this beautiful Friday. We are expecting a high of 75 on this mainly sunny day in northern Michigan. A little cool for this time of year, but beautiful and pleasant.
6/23 191.4 small bump up but likely due to high sodium yesterday. Had nearly 14,000 steps on my fitbit last night which included a 2 mile walk at the school track. I was very proud of myself. I ate at McDonald’s and had my meal bunless to stick to low carb. Stayed within my macros. I can count this day as a success. Still reaching for that 190.0 goal which was my lowest recorded weight of late. Baby steps…….
6/24 191.4 No Change. Boo Hoo. I walked 8100+ steps yesterday, but did not go for my usual walk. Lots of standing on my feet, but less walking because I was cleaning out closets and drawers (changing up to smaller clothes, yay !!!). Followed my low carb diet very well. My blood sugar numbers continue to improve. I think I am going to have to scratch and claw my way out of the 190’s but that’s okay. Nothing wrong with a good cat fight every now & then.
6/25 193.4 Binge last night and no #2 potty for a few days has taken it’s toll, in all honesty. But the self-sabotage every time I near a goal is getting ridiculous. On the exercise side, I walked over 6 miles and over 13,000 steps. I drank my water. I logged every embarrassing morsel of food. I actually worked very hard yesterday as well, in the house and on the landscaping. Food is an addiction and cravings are pretty hard to overcome sometimes. But the closer I get to my goal, the worse it seems to become. I am going to have to research some positive inspiration as I live in a very rural area and am a recent widow without much home support. MFP can be a big help, I know. I will have to use it for more than just logging. Today, as I hang my head in shame, I will probably go OVERBOARD trying to make up for it by starving myself and over exercising. It is a real cycle that must be broken. My goal is not just to lose weight, but to COMPLETELY learn new attitudes about food. New Permanent eating habits which promote health. I know a lot of you are with me on this. I know I am not alone in the cycles I go through. Godspeed to us all in our difficult, private and often self-sabotaging journey to our new mindsets, lifestyles, health and body confidence. I hope everyone will have a better day today than I am likely to have.
6/26 192.4 Loss this challenge -1.4 lbs. Happy to have ended with an overall loss. See you next challenge!

Round 43 report: Logged 9/10 days, 4/5 cardio workouts, 4/5 mini-strength workouts. Maintenance at 125-130 holding steady.
Round 44 GOAL = Log every day. Get 5 cardio workouts. Get 5 mini strength workouts. Continue to EASE back down to lower part of maintenance zone.
6/17 - 128.6 - Yesterday worked in garden and on housecleaning, 11K steps, under calories.
6/18 - 128.2 - Yesterday abandoned good sense and restraint. The lack of fitbit sync I was experiencing over the weekend did not help my poor attitude, nor did lack of running from my running buddy (hubs) nor my insistence on trying to mastermind things that I have no power over, including other people's feelings. Just an emo day that I wish I had handled better. OTOH, the first batch of zucchini bread I made out of our garden was extremely great -- however that did not help my day fitness or diet wise either lol.
6/19 - 127.6 - Yesterday under maintenance calories, 12K steps including 4 mile run which felt great in spite of the wind.
5/20 - 127.0 - yesterday a bit over maintenance calories, 10K steps and a good strength workout. I have taken to doing body-weight and resistance band strength with circuits of stepping high in place while watching sportsball with the hubs. Up to two sets of 10 pushups from the toes, so that's not nothing.
6/21 - 128.4 - yesterday about 300 over maintenance calories, but 14K steps in yard and house work and a nice 40 minute elliptical workout. Not worried about the weight "gain", for reasons I cannot confess except on TMI Tuesday... HINT: IT'S NOT FAT
6/22 - 128.0 - yesterday I lost my cookies. Or actually found them. Ironically the vending machine cookies that I ate while back at work at 9PM, and while also avoiding company that are fine people but not well known to me and a little intense thereby making my house not feel like mine, and who unintentionally in "trying to get to know me" in the nicest way raised those family discomforts and angst that I have been dealing with --- those vending machine cookies were branded "Sweet Serenity" in a cosmic joke so bad I should have choked laughing while eating them. Instead I went back for more.
So over calories, no workout, and completely aware that I still can binge-eat. Thanks universe, I get it.
6/23 - 128.2 - yesterday under maintenance calories, 10K steps including a couple miles of walking in the evening.
6/24 - 128.6 - yesterday under maintenance calories, 8K steps, super hot day.
6/25 - 128.2 - yesterday under maintenance calories, 5K steps. Lots of emo today. I am definitely seeing how anxiety and feelings that aren't enjoyable and food that is soothing play together on my little play list.
It's all information. It's up to me how to use it. Choice - in each moment - our most powerful tool.
6/26 -127.4 - yesterday 200 over maintenance, caused by oversnacking in the "oh well" mode when fitbit wouldn't sync. 10K steps though.
Tough round, and that's okay. Still well within maintenance. See you next.6 -

6/17 192.4 After pizza for dinner and leftover gyros for lunch yesterday. Wait and see what tomorrow brings.
6/18 195.0 Drats.
6/19 194.2 Okay.
6/20 194.0

6/22 195.0 So bagel chips and cheese were probably not the best snack choice.
6/23 195.6
6/24 196.4
6/25 196.6 Really frustrated with myself. Keep saying I'm going to do this, will try harder, tired of being fat and flabby. Then eat junk food all day and binge watch old tv shows. And nobody to blame but me. Do I not really want to succeed?
6/26 197.6 Way wrong way! Did a 5-mile workout, so that's something.6 -

6/26 - Tuesday - 196.6 - Things I learned this round: bodies are weird, the scale is data not a judgement (Thanks @puttyputty), I can't make up for a "bad day" by cutting more calories the next - I just end up binging as I did last night (still kept it in the green thanks to MFP), I like starkist tuna creations, you're gonna "mess up" - keep going anyway, healthy habits are not just for food - managing stress has been monumental for me, magnesium lotion is a great deodorant, eat more fish, sunshine makes me happy, moving makes me happy, and yes, food makes me happy sometimes and I'm alright with that.
So many hugs to you, @AJB1014! All we can do is keep learning together and keep moving together.1 -
@brightresolve Sending prayers for you. I came to the realization long ago that ONLY I CAN CONTROL WHAT GOES IN MY MOUTH It took some time for that to become ingrained but I had become a grazer and needed to get over that!1

Amen to that! Hugs!@AJB1014 - I love the starkist tuna creations! But now my husband and son have discovered them too and if I don't eat them right away I lose them.
I'm not even a big tuna fan! I got one just to try and wish I stocked up. I tried the lemon pepper flavor - what flavor is your favorite?0 -
Thanks @quiltingjaine , it does take time, doesn't it?
Here I sit at 20BMI, a squinch under my original goal weight, practicing maintenance, and still seeing some of the behaviors that can make me regain. Watching daily helps, but I'd like habits that would be more sustainable. I am working and practicing to find that balance in about 500 areas of my life, being an always-never good-bad sort of a person.
Let me reframe: being HISTORICALLY an always-never good-bad sort ...3 -
This is my 1st round. I've been really struggling with my weight the last month, yo-yo-ing up and down the same couple of pounds. Hope these 10 days can get me back on track.
Start Weight: 171 (Female, age 48, 5'4")
Ultimate Goal Weight: 139
Goal for This Challenge: 3 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
6/17: Weight = 171, I didn't track calories today and had too many salty/carby snacks + Margaritas at Father's Day cook-out
6/18: Weight = 172, I expected a bump up from yesterday but this is a hard number for me, it is the highest I've ever weighed. BUT, I have a plan for the day and feel confidant. I am starting The Betty Rocker 30 Day Challenge, which is different body weight exercises each day and will loosely follow her meal plan. I plan to follow her general eating guidelines just not her actual meal plans all the time.
6/19: Weight = 169, Yesterday was a good day! I completed the day 1 exercises from the 30 day challenge and ate within my calories, hit my macros, and followed the meal plan guidelines: Protein and fruit/veg at every meal, carbs with breakfast and the meal after exercise (which for me was dinner since I worked out in the afternoon), ate every 2-4 hrs, limited dairy and was gluten-free, drank lots of water. Feeling great so far, I will never see the 170's on my scale again!
6/20: Weight = 169, Yesterday was great until the afternoon. I did day 2 of my 30 day challenge workout and ate the 1st two of my scheduled four meals according to plan but then had a stressful afternoon/evening with my daughter (she was having an anxiety attack) and missed my 3rd and 4th meals all together. It was 9 p.m. by the time she was settled and I hadn't eaten since 12:30. I wasn't up for starting to cook at that hour and needed to eat something quick so I just made a sandwich and took to my bed to watch some mindless Bravo shows with a glass or two or Pinot Grigio. I logged those calories this morning and went over my calories by 350 and they were off plan but I'm okay with that. Everything in moderation, and I'm glad I maintained my weight and didn't go into a full binge eating from the stress.
6/21 Weight = 168.6 Yesterday was pretty good. I completed day 3 of my 30 day challenge workout and it was called full body explosion which I definitely feel in my lower body day! Today's workout is yoga which I think is much need to stretch this body out after the past 3 days. Food wise, I loosely followed the challenge meal plan for the 1st two meals of the day, skipped the 3rd meal (usually a late afternoon snack) and then was able to fit in dinner out without going over my calories.
6/22 Weight = 167.2 I'm down 1.4 lbs. from yesterday but not sure that is a real drop. I weighed in late this morning + I missed dinner last night due to going to the movies but was still in an acceptable calorie range and wasn't hungry when I got home. I'm trying to do intermittent fasting when possible, so an 8 hour eating window and 16 hr fasting. The latest I can push breakfast without being hungry is 10:30 a.m., so that means I have to finish my last meal by 6:30 p.m. the day before. I feel like doing this has (so far) really got me in control of my hunger. Before I was CRAZY hungry all the time. Fueling my body with protein/fruit/veg at every meal and spacing my carb intake to specific times is probably helping with this as well. I completed day 4 of my 30 day challenge workout yesterday and the yoga definitely helped, feeling much less sore this morning! But the biggest positive of yesterday is...I did not have anything at the movies!! I even looked up the calories beforehand and could fit a 1/2 of a small popcorn into my calories but passed and instead had hummus and veggies before I went! Have a great weekend everyone
6/23 Weight = 166.2 Another late morning weigh-in, but still great to sleep in! Yesterday was a good food day, I ate according to my meal plan and felt satisfied, not deprived, and hunger was controlled. Still struggling to get 4 meals in but am happy with the 3 I had. I completed day 5 of my exercise challenge and it was a cardio Tabata style workout, not going to lie, it was hard! Lots of jumping. In the afternoon, I took my daughter to a trampoline park and I jumped as well to get an extra calorie burn.
6/24 Weight = 166.4 A little blip up. A did everything right yesterday, lots of exercise, ate well within my calories, drank plenty of water. I think this is just a bit of an bounce from the previous 2 days' late weigh-ins. This is probably the more accurate number. I'll be back to my normal weekday 7:00 a.m. weigh-ins tomorrow, which will give a more accurate number. I completed day 6 of my 30 day exercise challenge yesterday which was upper body + got in a short run. I am doing my measurements every 5 days and today was that day. The biggest change was in my waist, which is where I usually lose 1st. Unfortunately, where I want to see the change is my face & chest and those are the last places I lose. But determined to get there. Stay strong everyone, we're in the home stretch of this challenge!
6/25 Weight= 165.8 So this marks my one week re-commitment to weight loss + returning to healthier eating habits and exercising to get strong not skinny. I lost a little over 6 pounds this past week which is bananas and I'm sure most of it is water weight. I expect my weight loss to slow WAY down this week. To hit my goal in the time planned, my hoped for loss is in the 1.7-2 lbs per week range. Just have to stay focused! I completed day 7 of my 30 day exercise challenge yesterday which was a lower body workout, so hard! But, boy do I feel accomplished when I complete these, who knew 15 minutes could be so tough!! Wishing a everyone a great start to this new week, let's make it a good one
6/26 Weight = 165.8 No change from yesterday. My goal for this challenge was to lose 3 lbs. I lost 5.2 lbs over-all, so I am very pleased with this and am definitely in for round 45, see you there!7 -
Here again. Company coming the end of this week and then I’m off on a trip a week later. Thought I’d better at least try my best to record every day so as not to have eating totally spiral out of control. Will try to get in at least 2 gym sessions before the company arrives.

Ultimate Goal Weight – 128
Day/Weight/Comment
6/17
6/18, Monday - 161.6 - Goal weight for this round is lower than I would usually do but I did see a few days in the 160’s last round so decided to try for it. Would so love to see a 159’s on the scale before I go away.
6/19, Tuesday – 161.2 – Feel like I have too many balls in the air and afraid I’m headed for disaster with company coming (daughter and 6 grandkids), going away while she’s still here, going to a wedding where we’ll see lots of relatives (usual “What on earth will I wear??), trip up north and then east after the wedding visiting/helping kids with projects. Have to remind myself that: I have got part of the wedding present and a sort of plan for the rest, while I looked everywhere for something dressy for the wedding and found nothing, I have started sewing something. House needs a tidy through and clean but is not a disaster. Just have to not panic and keep plugging and don’t get bogged down in detail or distracted.
6/20, Wednesday – 160.8 Feeling a little draggy today but so happy to see the 160’s even if just barely. Just going to keep plugging along today and drink lots of water.
6/21, Thursday – 161.6 Feeling a bit better. Aim today is to log everything. Have been thinking that I was too busy for that and that I was eating OK anyways but it is so easy to slip up. Measured today and there is a little improvement.
6/22, Friday – 160 Now if I can just get under this! Daughter has a change of plans and so is coming tomorrow. Have a ton of things to do so if I can just focus on getting stuff done with short breaks but no stress eating, I should do great.
6/23, Saturday – 160.2 Shopping trip to US yesterday so not the best on food but not too bad. Came home and had to take husband into emerg. Turns out he has shingles so no grandkids and no travel for at least a 10 days to 2 wks. Could be longer depending how things go. So switching gears here and refocus. Crazy how your mind has trouble with that when you are all geared up to something. At least will still see the kids later in the summer.
6/24, Sunday – 160.8 Too much running around & not enough gym. Home all week now so going to get my exercise and gardening in.
6/25, Monday – 160 Off to the gym today! It’s been awhile with no exercise but back at it this week.
6/26, Tuesday – 160 So focused on getting below this that I forgot where I started this round. Did OK and celebrate that.5 -

Age 60, 5'4.5" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me. Changed MFP setting 5/5/18 [R39] to 1/2# per week loss ~ within 10# of UGW, weight loss had stalled 3 months + was feeling hungry more often.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145 / no goal dates ~ I get there when I get there
Thrilled with my 2/15/18 annual physical: BP 110/68, pulse 64 and BMI 26.14
Ecstatic with my 5/15/18 annual workplace Health Risk Assessment: waist smallest since 2007 and BMI 25.6
My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
6/17 134.5. Well, that’s what a few carbs too many do to me. 4 tortilla chips and about 3/4” of chimichanga. I scraped the meat and cheese out and left 99% of the flour tortilla.
6/18 136.0 ???? I need to remind myself that it takes 2-3 days for my food choices to be reflected on the scale.
6/19 135.5 Recovering from Saturday and Sunday.
6/20 134.5 at 9AM (was 135.5 at 4:30 AM what am I doing up at this hour???) I got my stuff ready to go to water fitness at 9 and then realized that I have a meeting at 10. I love my Art Quilt group. Third Wednesday is always busy with this meeting and community bingo/dinner.
6/21 134.5
6/22 133.5 Late check in as we took friends to the airport this morning and stopped for some groceries on the way home.
6/23 134.0. Under calories and macros, drank over a gallon of water yesterday.
6/24 134.5 Over on everything again. I’m human.
6/25 134.0
6/26 134.0 WHOO HOO!

17: Music Festival - no weigh-in
18: Music Festival - no weigh-in
19: 206.5... Not surprised at all. Was at a music festival from Thursday afternoon until late last night. No IF. No meal planning. Lots of snacks instead of good meals. And of course beer. I feel quite puffy this morning too. I got a new scale that shows body comp stats. First day on it. I compared it with my old scale, and it's within a couple tenths of a pound. All the other stats are new, so I'll be watching the tends.
20: Did not weigh
21: 203.4
22: 199.6... Surprise! I didn't log yesterday, but I'm pretty sure I was well over my calories. Definitely over in carbs. The one thing I did do was stuck to my IF schedule. Pretty sure this is my weight just normalizing after the music festival, including now getting back to better sleep.
23: 199.6... Surprised again! Had a late dinner and several drinks with a friend last night. I'm loving my new scale, and not just because it's loving me back.
24: 202.9... Two words. Red. Lobster.
25: 203... Ate too late last night. Still holding onto water weight from Saturday night. I'm feeling good about where I'm at though. Hovering around 200 is so much better than 230 @ Christmas time. Let's see what tomorrow brings. Maybe I can flush more sodium out. Hitting the water hard core today!
26: 201.2... That's better. It's my oldest daughter's 17th birthday today. Taking her out for sushi dinner tonight, and we're both getting our noses pierced!
