Round goals: consistently hit protein goal for macros and get used to logging again.

Day/Weight/BF%/Comment
7/07 225.9/42.2%/let's do this.

7/08 223.5/41.8%/ MFP calories are too low if this is from day 1, I overate by 600 calories, had a glass of wine and I still lost like this. Hit the macro percentages though.

Am going to hold the cals at 1800 (not 1200) and see if that was a fluke. I have essentially been on a 3 year refeed, lol, and I although I do want this weight off and am mentally ready to do it now, I do not want to blow up my metabolism for the umpteen millionth time by crashing my way through it. Went on a 5.65 mile hike/walk/run today with the dogs, because I like doing it. Aside from the stuff I like to do, I am really going to try hard to make this about the diet and doing as little as I can to get the scale to keep going in the right direction. It is going to be a long road, 10 days at a time (maybe even one day and one meal at a time), but um, heck yeah, I am excited about how things have started. Yay for newbie gains and trying not to be an idiot.

7/09 227.3/42.0%/😡. Am going to throw this scale out the window if it doesn't start making sense. But, committed to still counting and hitting my macros.

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.

Round 45 report: Logged later a few days, but average sugar consumption was quite a lot lower which was a goal. Got a couple of nice cardio workouts in, average weight is down.

Round 46 GOAL = Maintain weight. That's it. I am trying to control my anxiety by making rules again, and it's time to stop when my perfectionism is driving the bus; that's a "recipe" for disaster.

7/7 - 125.8 - yesterday under maintenance, 10K steps, got in a walk/run to gym and 20 mins on elliptical.
7/8 - 126.2 - yesterday over maintenance, due to some middle of night can't-sleep sugar. Got in a pretty solid at-home strength workout yesterday - resistance bands, exercise ball etc.

7/9 - 125.4 - yesterday under maintenance, 10K steps, got a 3.5 mile run in with some walk intervals, it was hot but ran to gym and then ran on treadmill. A day to stack up and check off the things that will make me feel better: taking care of bills, stretching, taking vitamins, sitting with the mindfulness exercise, and getting a run.

7/07 160.2 Wow I am super stoked to start with this weight!! Finally got my parents home yesterday after a long 3 weeks of caregiving, celebrated last night with a cocktail, hot tub, time with my hubby and light dinner. I drank a lot of water yesterday and just snacked rather than my big salad, not meeting my macros but happy with this loss! Now to stay the course as I head into the weekend.

7/08 162.6 Cocktail and fried calamari, Fiber One bars give me a stomache ache, became a Granny to twins...tummy hurts still!! No more Fiber One for me, water before I eat, yardwork today. Tomorrow's weigh in will be great, I am sure of it!! I have lost almost 10 lbs and it really feels good. I lose the tummy bloat first and that's what makes me feel fat vs. thin, so success!

7/09 163.4 WEIGH IN DAY Well, this gain is expected after my indulgence the day before. It took 2 days to show up, since yesterday I was on plan. I am confident I will drop back down this week.

2. 3 lb loss to land at 188.4 or less
3. No Bingeing
4. No “cheat days” only “Earn days”. No “Earn Days” only “Earn Meals” which are much easier to bounce back fro
5. 10,000 steps per day. Mixed modes of exercise.

7. Check my blood sugar daily for improvements.

R45 SW 192.4 EW 191.4 - 1.0 lbs Loss
R46 SW 191.4 EW = TBD

Day/Weight/Comment

7/07 189.6 Can this be real? I worked hard at this yesterday to get this challenge off to a better start than the last. Over 10,000 steps. Intermittent fasted for 16:8 . 25 net carbs. 1269 calories. Now just to hang on……..

7/08 189.0…. Very pleased with progress. Now….Just to keep from sabotaging myself. Dr. Appointment tomorrow which is keeping me accountable. Hope I can hold it steady afterward…..
I walked nearly 13,000 steps yesterday including a planned 1 mile brisk walk just prior to dinner. I intermittent fasted 16:8. Liquids okay but could have been better. Battled some cravings late night, but got through it with a square of bitter 90% dark cacao chocolate. I tried hard to pretend it was milk chocolate or maybe a Milky Way but eh…….

7/09 188.4 Dr. Appointment later today so I wanted to be accountable. I walked over 16,000 steps yesterday and nearly 7 miles. Low on water due to work and being so busy. Followed my diet well and fought the late night cravings and urges to binge which I sometimes give in to. I intermittent fasted 16:8 which is not always easy for me. The doctor appt today kept me on track for sure!

@TerriRichardson112 Thank you. After years of being discouraged, it is my hope to always be an encourager. That is why, when someone has posted a gain but made a positive comment, I will like instead of hug. Even maintaining is better than gaining so that also gets a like when positive attitude is shown.

@L2HS Do not be discouraged, stick to your plan. I find it takes 2-3 days for my body to settle after a big weekend. You’ve got this!!

Right now I’m off to water fitness! I’ll be back to finish reading in at about 11!

I am in. I have been very cognizant of my eating but not logging. Hopefully I will get it together. I am motivated. But as we all know it takes more than motivation. It takes using all the tools you have and dedication.

Around 10 p.m. I found myself doing a few walking laps of my house to get my Fitbit to 10,000 steps - so silly, but hey, it is making me move more.

I do this a lot! Wait until you find yourself running in the house!

I'm having such a hard time on the weekends. We have people-over every weekend. I just haven't been focusing on me. Its like my brain turns to mush. But, this morning, I threw out all the junk food, and gave away all the candy. This should help a bit.

Having people over is such a blessing! Just make sure you always take care of yourself. Make most of what you serve healthy and throw a couple no-nos in there so people can make their own choices. Love yourself first, and remember it is the company you want, not the food.

Round 46 goal. Loose the 4 pounds I gained over the holiday and catering dinners for friends and family this entire week.
7/9 – 194lbs – its been a long week of binging on adult beverages and Unlimited meals, managed to stay under my goal of 199 but would like to get back to averaging 189. Will be eating the same lunch the rest of the week to try and loose 5 pounds.

I'll take it and be happy for today but not sure how accurate it is. Going to the lake today so I will have to be mindful of what I'm eating and to make sure I'm continuously drinking my water. I tend to snack on everything at the lake and slack on water, got to change that habit.

7/08 - Camping, no weigh in.
