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.

weight goal for this round 157.8 (the weight I jumped to in 2016 after my Europe trip, and only went up from there!)
log every day

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.

ROUND 4 FOR ME - Female 58 yrs old Original starting weight 235 on 1/11/18

………We are fierce and so we fight………

Goals: 1. To be an inspiration to my 22 year old Autistic son who started his weight loss journey on May 1, 2018 weighing 308.4 .
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.
6. Lots of water, green tea daily, apple cider vinegar before carby meals.
7. Check my blood sugar daily for improvements.

R43 SW 193.8 EW 195.6 +1.8 lbs Gain
R44 SW 195.6 EW 192.4 - 3.2 lbs Loss
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!

7/10 187.4 Keep on keepin’ on. Walked over 10,000 steps. 16:8 Intermittent fast. Good water, tea and vinegar. Brisk 1.5 mile walk after dinner. Dr. & staff impressed with weight loss. Blood Pressure 112/77. All is well. Today is an out of town trip quite far from home. Due to being mainly carbound, I will not get in my steps and my diet will be off. We’ll see what tomorrow’s scales bring. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Today, I'm taking part in a challenge where my only drink is water. I don't know how capable I am of that! I love my Diet Coke! I hit my head really hard during my commute. I have a bit of a headache, but I think things are okay. I'm on a bit of high alert right now.

@puttyputty If it helps any, I used to drink gallons of Diet Coke, Diet root beer, Diet tonic water.... About 3 years ago I read an article about how carbonation affects the body - increasing the risk of bone fracture, for one. Google "effects of carbonation on the body" and you'll find lots of info - here's one https://www.livestrong.com/article/429453-the-effects-of-carbonated-drinks-on-a-persons-body/

Anyway, I went pretty much cold turkey, and although many of the negative effects are long term (so benefits aren't be noticeable short term), I will tell you that within a week I felt generally better. Within a month the cravings were gone, and when I tried a Diet Coke about 3 months after quitting, it tasted TERRIBLE! So for almost three years I drink almost exclusively water, a couple of cups of coffee in the morning, herbal tea after lunch, and occasionally an iced decaf coffee in the evening. But water, with or without lime or lemon, is my pimary drink. An added bonus aside from health considerations is $$$$ saved! So think about what you're gaining, not what you're missing out on. Good luck!

@Bendiz_ Our bodies seem to take a little time to decide what to do with what we have consumed. Under eating today probably WON’T be reflected on the scale tomorrow. I find it takes 2-3 days.

@vdecosta86 I told my daughter to start cutting carbs a couple of weeks before we visited in December because I was going to help her transition to Keto. She didn’t and thought she was going to die the first day (back at work.)

@81meg1L Edit function is limited to 1 hour. Copy and paste (from memo or note) seems to work best for me.

@puttyputty Coke Zero for me! I gave up diet soda a few years ago because everyone told me it makes you gain. Well after my 12 month “experiment” I had gained 12 pounds. I only have it if we are out to eat because the water in Henderson is nasty! Be mindful of that knock on the head! Prayers!

Love this challenge. Goal this round: always be aware of what I’m eating. Maybe it should be always be aware of what I’m doing because the eating I regret always comes with mindless doing, procrastination, and/or tiredness. Also want to get in all my gym days and some kind of exercise every day. A ‘just for 10 days’ experiment.

7/07, Saturday – 161.8 Hoping this will be easy to get down to the 160’s.
7/08, Sunday – 161.8 Seems like I spent most of yesterday on the phone but did get in some gardening in the evening – first time placing stones in a two level bed. It was a lot of fun and think it turned out well.
7/09, Monday – 161.6 Gym today.
7/10, Tuesday – 161.8 Rain today – thankful that God decided to water and I don’t have to. Woke up early so decided to start my home exercises, aim to run through them all today (abt. 1 hr, and a spread it over the day). They make a good balance for the gym but haven’t done the whole lot in more than a year.

Day/Weight/Comment

7/07: Weight = 164.5 (down .4 from yesterday) Happy to see the scale moving in the right direction to start off this challenge! Yesterday was a good day - was able to squeeze in a short run between thunderstorms and completed day 19 of my exercise challenge which was a Posterior Chain workout (Thigh Jacks, Elevated Bridge Lifts, Triceps Dips, Swimmers, Single Leg Tabletops, 3-Way Calf Raises). So what I learned yesterday, is that I have SUPER weak back muscles. I've found in past workouts that doing Supermans are hard for me but the Swimmer's yesterday showed me just how weak my back is. Swimmers = lie on your stomach with your arms and legs fully extended - lift your arms and legs up and begin to paddle, alternating right leg, left arm up, then left leg, right arm like a swimmer, keep your lower back engaged for 45 seconds x 3. So that's something I definitely need to work on. On to day 20 today which is Cardio Ladders. I hope everyone has a great start to their weekend and to this challenge

7/08: Weight = 162.3 (down 2.2 from yesterday). I KNOW this is not a real loss. Slept in this morning and weighed-in super late so that will account for this low number. I don't expect this to be my weight tomorrow but as long as it is below 164.5 tomorrow, I'll be good. Yesterday I was below calories, on target with macros and completed my day 20 exercises. 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. It's a beautiful day here today, and not hot or humid like last week, so going to go enjoy a nice run and then get my day 21 challenge workout. Probably grilling out tonight, love lazy summer days!

7/09: Weight = 162.3 Didn't expect this number to stick around, very surprised but happy! I still won't believe this is a real loss for another day or two. Yesterday was the last day of the break in the heat wave, going back up this week, so I enjoyed being outside and had a great run and then we cooked out last night. Husband cooked a flank steak, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers on the grill and he and our daughter had fajitas and I skipped the tortilla and had mine on top of a brown rice/quinoa grain salad, delicious! I completed day 21 of my exercise challenge which was all about back strengthening, which I need. Capped of the evening watching the Tour de France (so addicted to this every summer), so all in all a nice relaxing weekend. My daughter has extended school year (just 3 days a week during July only) starting this week and we live relatively close to where it is being held, so I'll be walking her there for drop off and walk back for pick-up, so should be adding in some extra calorie burn for the next month. Have a great start to your week, everyone!

7/10: .= 161.8 (down .5 from yesterday) I *think* I've broken through my plateau, I want to see another day in this range and then feel like these are real losses. Yesterday was a good day, I ate under calories and hit my macros, no alcohol, no gluten, lots of water and completed my day 22 challenge exercise which was a lateral/side body circuit workout. Also got in a 30 minute walk with my daughter to do a trial run to see how long it would take to get her to summer school, 15 minutes there and 15 minutes back. Although my plan is to walk her there for drop off and then run home and then run back for pick-up and walk home with her. Anything to get that extra calorie burn! My big happy moment yesterday was when I caught my daughter looking at me and then she said "Mommy, I can see it, you are losing weight. You look different than you did". That being said, I am always careful being the mother of an almost teenage girl, that I tell her I am doing this to get my fitness back and be strong and healthy not to be skinny.

7/08:--174.8 Weighed in this morning but almost forgot to log it!
7/09:--173.8 Wasn't expecting to see this at all! It's probably a one-off because I wasn't feeling 100% yesterday and ended up under-eating.
7/10:--175.4 A sure sign that TOM is imminent.
