6/27 - 164 - I'm not surprised by the little bump up from yesterday.
6/28 - 164.5 - So my rollercoaster weight graph continues...I've been below my weight loss calories all week, so this has to be water. I'll see if I can sweat it out while I'm mowing our lawn tonight.

6/27 - 154.6 - Up a little from yesterday but not worried, muscles are a little sore today from working out so might be holding on to some water, feeling a little heavy this morning. Food, water and steps were all good yesterday so not going to stress about this slight gain.

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/27--178.6 I feel like I'm off track the last several days. Need to make some adjustments.
6/28--177.4 Glad to see some downward progress. Last night I reevaluated my MFP goals. I had it set at 1 lb/week, sedentary (which I am), which gave me 1420 calories. I was really struggling with this. After fighting it for a few months now, I decided to change it to .5 lb/week. This gives me 1670 calories. Part of what was happening is I would go so far over my calories that I would just stop worrying about it. What's another 100 when you are already several hundred over? I'm hoping by having a more realistic goal it will keep me more accountable, because I will feel like I can actually meet it. Plus, even though I was set at 1 lb/week, it was really more like 1 lb/month, so .5/lb per week would make me perfectly happy. I don't really care how slow it is as long as its going down. The last round I felt like I was really starting to go the wrong direction. So, today is the first day I try to hit my new calorie goal!

My fat cells finally seem to be ready to let go. Yay! Finally! I'm planning a nice long walk this evening before the "hazardous heat" returns tomorrow, and we're going to try a new-to-us Ethiopian restaurant for lunch. Vegetarian injera platter for me! Yum!

Just Give Me 10 Days

5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again. Confident it’ll stick this time. SW: 250lbs (05/28/18), UGW: 140-150lbs

R43 SW 240.4
R44 SW 237.2
R45 SW 235.0

Goal this round: More accurate logging by cooking more during weekends. Start exercise routine probably some kind of beginners work out video on YouTube. Recommendations appreciated. Good luck everyone!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/27 235.0! Changed my logging to just putting round start weights since there’s been a difference from the last day of the previous round to the first day of the new round. Between R43 and R44 there was a -0.4lb difference. Between R44 and R45 -1.5lbs!!! I think my consistency from last round paid off even though the scale wasn’t reflecting that. I’m glad I didn’t let it mentally de-rail me. Great way to start a round!

6/28: 165.4. Great day. IF16:8, macros- carbs 10 g too high so not in Keto this am. Drank all my water and good lower body exercise. Slept well! No pain

Day/Weight/Comment
6/27 - Wednesday - 196.6 - Worked really hard to avoid stress eating last night - stayed within calories and made dinner at home after some less than stellar news at work. HUGE WIN - as I normally would have went straight for the comfort foods on the way home. Now to continue on with good planning and choices because the stress shall remain for a while. Cheesesteak stuffed pepper for dinner tonight for me and cheesesteak sandwich for DH. Breakfast smoothie and lunch prepped and packed and made it to work on the early side so feeling good about all those things. Going to an outdoor concert friday and packing a picnic so need to plan that menu. Lots of planning has gotten me this far and I'm finally starting to enjoy the habit.
6/28 - Thursday - 196.4 - I believe TOM is imminent. I'm feeling a bit bloated and I've been hanging out at the same weight for 3 days - which is a pattern I've noticed the past two months. Also a carb monster. I've been around 100g of carbs the past few days - today is around 150g and I'm okay with that. I planned my day of eating around pizza for dinner but I need to get more protein in - and in different ways than my protein shake - getting sick of it and that's when things turn bad for me. Going to get a bunch of those tuna packets and make that my afternoon snack. Last night was good - took a nice walk and had a steak and cheese low carb wrap instead of the pepper but it all worked out. Need to do some prep tonight to get ready for tomorrow evening outdoor concert as we will probably leave from work so it will be a busy night tonight. I find I'm managing stress a LOT better. Good food = good vibes for me. If I was going thru what I am now, 6 months ago, my head would have been buried in a pot of pasta. Feeling healthy, hopeful, and strong.

End Weight : 165.8
Total Lost: 5.2 lbs

Round 45 Goal: 163 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment

6/27: Weight = 165.8 Scale hasn't moved in 3 days...Will just keep doing what I'm doing and hope for a whoosh to be coming! Completed Day 8 of The Betty Rocker 30 Day Challenge yesterday which was an Abs workout and was under in calories for the day. My hamstrings are a bit tight today so I'm going to do some stretches and get in a short shake out run before today's Day 9 workout. This group really motivated me to stay committed the last round, hoping to do the same this round!

6/28: Weight = 165.4 Well, the scale finally moved a small bit down after 4 days, but not sure it is real. I had to get on and off a couple of times before this number showed up, the numbers were all over the place. I don't want to say it is discouraging, because it just motivates me more to stay committed but it is a bit of a bummer to not see any real progress so far this week. Exercise and food wise, yesterday was right on target. I was right on my calorie goal, hit my macros, went for a short run, completed day 10 of my exercise challenge which was a full body workout. I didn't have any gluten, diet cokes or alcohol & drank plenty of water. I still have a lot of pain in my calves, which I am pretty sure is DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). I know those small muscle tears can retain water, so I am hopping that is the cause of the scale not going down. Today is a yoga day, thankfully! I'm also not going to have the protein powder I started using a couple of days ago, in my diet today. That's the only thing new I've added in this week, so maybe it could be the sneaky culprit

This is my first time trying short-term goals but I think they may be better for me.

I love the idea of keeping each other accountable.

That being said, anybody want to be an accountability partner?

I'm 37 and 5'1
My goal is 130 lbs
I'm hoping to lose at least two pounds per round.

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.

06/26 - 166.8

Started at 191.7, down to 149.8 and back up to 166.8. Long term goal is 145 range.

Day/Weight/Comment

06/27 - 164.8 Day 1 on keto for me. I was over on protein but good on fats and carbs. I’m sure the drop is just from water retain as I drank a lot of water yesterday.

06/28 - 163.4 Day 2 on keto for me. I pretty much nailed my numbers. I had a slight headache but ate some pickles and felt much better. I don't feel hungry which is good just have to stop being so hyper focused on food. Once I get used to eating Keto and the decisions come easier then it will help.

6/28--177.4 Glad to see some downward progress. Last night I reevaluated my MFP goals. I had it set at 1 lb/week, sedentary (which I am), which gave me 1420 calories. I was really struggling with this. After fighting it for a few months now, I decided to change it to .5 lb/week. This gives me 1670 calories. Part of what was happening is I would go so far over my calories that I would just stop worrying about it. What's another 100 when you are already several hundred over? I'm hoping by having a more realistic goal it will keep me more accountable, because I will feel like I can actually meet it. Plus, even though I was set at 1 lb/week, it was really more like 1 lb/month, so .5/lb per week would make me perfectly happy. I don't really care how slow it is as long as its going down. The last round I felt like I was really starting to go the wrong direction. So, today is the first day I try to hit my new calorie goal!

@no1racefan1, I have my calories set much higher than most people because I need to feel like it's achievable rather than a challenge. I rarely go over, and quite often am significantly under, but I need to feel free to make choices. So I completely get wanting to bump that up so you feel more in control. I hope it works! Everyone is so different in how they have to finesse their thinking.

I notice that I keep making the same typo over and over. I'll write my weight as 24x when I mean 23x, or 23x when I mean 22x. My brain is struggling to keep up with my body!

6/27 at 7:15 / 227.4 / Wow! That's 2.6 pounds overnight. I had a drop like that last round, too, though I bounced right back up. Sometimes, I imagine my body is laughing like that cartoon dog with the weird laugh as I get on the scale. "Let's see how surprising I can be. Tee hee hee."

6/28 at 6:20 / 228.4 / A little bump, but I did a ton of exercise yesterday, including new resistance loop exercises. I expected to have more of a water bump than this.

Round 45/Round 1.5

for me

SW: 152.7
UGW: 125
RGW: 130/135
Weekly goal: lose one pound, exercise 6 days a week a minimum of 30 minutes. Minimum 30 minutes cardio daily.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/27: 152.6 — The good news is that despite being gone 10 days traveling/vacationing I managed to get some good exercise in and I didn't gain, just left off where I was when I left. I'll take it! So glad to be back here, truly!
6/28: 151.8 — Nice to see a drop. Got lots of water yesterday and kept my carbs in check. Also quit eating at 6:45pm—no evening snacking or wine drinking, my downfall. Would love to see 149 by the end of this round, which means I really have to strategize my food and workouts.
