8/08 - 187.1 - Not as bad as I expected honestly.
8/09 - 185.3 - I ate very low carb, but I need to drink more water today.
8/10 - 183.5 - I’m going to attempt to exercise today. I’ve really been lacking motivation since the end of July. I’m hoping to do a short run and to walk a couple of miles.
8/11 - 182.3 - I'm really happy with this number! It's the lowest I've been since March. I haven't been tracking but I have been eating LCHF. I also went for a walk yesterday. It was a slow walk due to the heat, but I'm happy I got out there. I'm going to try to get out there again today before the rain starts.

8/06 - 218.0 lbs - The weight isn't falling off like in the first round, I guess its exercise time.
8/07 - 217.0 lbs - Finally, after being stuck for several days. I never know what the scale will read these days.
8/08 - 216.2 lbs - This hot and humid weather makes me less hungry. A blessing in disguise.
8/09 - 215.8 lbs - I've been eating too much in the morning and skipping lunch. I need to balance meals.
8/10 - 216.8 lbs - Wife bought a loaf of crispy bread since store didn't have individual rolls. Recipe for disaster.
8/11 - 216.8 lbs - Went to a concert with wife, we always go to a pizza place before. I had half a turkey sandwich and a beer. I thought I might lose a little but nothing. At least I didn't flip out and eat 4 pieces of Pizza. I need two good days in a row here, I hate going backwards.

"My goal for this period is to go back to my pre vacation weight that was 60-61 kg"
8/08- 63.2 kg, that makes it + 2 kg compared with one month ago and +5 kg compared with my target weight
8/09 - 63 kg. Pretty good day, kept it low carb on the diet and stop eating around 18:30. Done 1h of yoga that is kind of extreme sport for me. Same targets for today just changing yoga for a circuit class.
8/10 - 62.6 . Small progress but very happy the scale is going into the right direction. Have been good with food yesterday, kept it low carb as well, had my 2 liters of water and circuit class. Stop eating by 18:30 as well and despite my very calm evening with a book I resisted to the small voice in my head telling me that reading with a glass of red wine would be even more enjoyable. And this made me to sleep very well
8/11 - 61.9 uhuuuuu. Obviously low carb, plenty of water and stop eating at 18:00 is working well for me. Just need the strength to keep the direction, I know very well the recipe of losing weight. No sport yesterday , just a short walk but this was my rest day, so no surprise here.

R48 SW: 178.2 EW: 180.1 (+1.9)
8/9 - (No scale today) For the first time in like 4 years I have been out of town for a couple of days. I was doing good the first 2 days weighing and logging everything.. But the 2 last days I didn't log much and I had a burger with fries at a restaurant. I was feeling like a total party pooper when I didn't go out to eat with my boyfriend and just sat there in the hotel room with my food scale lol. I could have chosen a salad, but I wanted the burger.. So I had the burger, and we'll see how big the consequences are tomorrow and deal with them I ate my regular stuff besides the burger, so I feel like I've come a long way. At the same time last year I would have probably just said f* it and ordered a burger for lunch aswell... and a lot of other stuff I usually WANT the healthy alternatives now because they are more tempting, but I still have a way to go when it comes to dinner. I'm fine with whatever for breakfast, lunch, snacks and supper.. But when it comes to dinner, I think a burger with fries looks better than avacados and spinach. There's something special about dinner.. Haha
8/10 - 182.1 lbs Oh well, could have been worse. This will probably come off quickly, since I gained it fast I do not handle carbs that well, weight is fluctuated for several days afterwards if I eat a lot of carbs one day.. Even if I stick to my calorie goal. Gonna try to eat as "clean" as possible today. A lot of veggies and not so much carbs.
8/11- 181.2 lbs Gonna continue with the low carb and avoid processed foods 😊 Have a great Saturday everyone!

•8/6 - 186.2 - Early weigh in. - This morning, I reviewed my weigh ins from the last round. My weight was all over the place. 188.2, 187.8, 187, 186.8, 186.4, 185.6, 185.2. That is not usual for me. I'm expecting that my weigh ins this round will compensate for the weights I bypassed. Those lovely increments. Today's weight for example. We shall see. 9 more to go. 186 was my weight in early 2015. I was doing very well on the way to my goal of 150lbs, when I decided to try eating grains again. Bad, bad idea.
•8/7 - 186.6 - Early weigh in. Maybe I am through with the 186's now? 186.8, 186.4, 186.2 This weight completes the increments set.
•8/8 - 185.6 - Okay. Let's count'em down. I was here and .2 last round so, maybe I skip .8 altogether? If so, one to go and one to revisit.
• 8/9 - 185 -
•8/10 - 185.4- Lol, there it is. If no point 8 this week, then this set is complete. A VERY carby day yesterday, courtesy of some pre-made store bought meatballs. 52g carbs, 41g net carbs

I'm back...I was away for the last couple of rounds. My kitchen has been under renovation since the first week of July and I have been without a kitchen and in an upheaval since then. I have basically been eating at maintenance as I lived through the renovation. Considering all the stress and the difficulty in making meals, I am happy to say that I am basically at the same weight now as when I started the renovation. Even though the kitchen won't be completed until tomorrow, YAAAAA!!!, and we still have to get the kitchen organized, I am ready to get back at losing. (I thought I had posted yesterday, but I can't find my post.)
Goals:
1. Beat sister-in-law in weekly step competition
2. Do some form of intentional exercise 7 of 10 days (6/7)
3. Get water in
Day/Weight/Comment
08/06--222.8 Went to the in-laws this weekend, so there is definitely an uptick due to increased sodium from eating out. The positive is that my sister-in-law and I, we both have Garmin watches, are now in a weekly step competition with each other, so that will definitely be a motivation to get more steps in this week. I'm going out for a walk at lunch and then Zumba tonight. Making sure to get my water in today.
08/07--221.3 Got to use the fridge in the kitchen yesterday! Who knew these small things in life could be so exciting. Today is the last day of kitchen renovations and tonight I will be able to use the stove for the first time in 33 days. Went to Zumba last night and so far I am ahead of my sister-in-law in the steps competition. I will go out for a walk at lunch again today, but as tonight I will mainly be spending my time going food shopping and organizing the kitchen I'm not sure how many steps I will be getting in today.
08/08--220.6 Sister-in-law is currently about 100 steps ahead of me, so the competition is tight. Was hoping to organize the kitchen last night, but quickly realized what a daunting task that was and quickly lost motivation. I did organize the utensils, so I'll take that as an accomplishment and will do some more work this evening. Tonight is yoga and with the mini heat wave we are having in the PNW, not sure how much extra walking I will be able to get in tonight; however, I will go out for a walk at lunch when the weather isn't so bad.
08/09--220.0 Yoga was great last night. Sister-in-law is currently 5k steps ahead of me, ARGHHH!!! Today is the last day of the heat wave, so I plan to walk at lunch again and depending on how bad the weather is tonight I plan on going for a long walk tonight. Still working on organizing the kitchen, but considering how hot it will be inside the house this evening not sure how much organizing I will be doing.
08/10--220.4 Did not get a chance to walk during lunch, work got busy. Also, didn't walk in the evening as the heat was still bad. Sister-in-law is now 9K steps ahead of me with 3 days to go, she lives about 2 hours away and it is always a few degrees cooler where she lives. Luckily the heat wave has broken and I will be a walking machine over the next 3 days. I will walk at lunch and then take the dog out for a long walk this evening. Last night I unpacked 4 boxes of kitchen stuff, 1 more box to go, and placed most of the stuff on the kitchen counter while I tried to figure out where to put everything and what to throw out. I packed away about 1/2 of the stuff before I lost motivation, so my counters are still covered with kitchen stuff. I will finish the rest tonight and over the weekend. Last night I was so excited to find my kettle while I was packing things away. So, last night I had my first cup of tea in over 6 weeks. Then my husband unexpectedly decided to make us some lemon blueberry scones, he has been wanting to try out the new stove. Tea and homemade scones made a great evening.
08/11--219.3 Kitchen counters are still a mess, but living with the kitchen for the last couple of days has given me a better idea about where to place stuff. We are getting a very large wood cutting board delivered today, so I need to get the counters cleared off so we have somewhere to put it. I didn't get to go on a walk at lunch yesterday, work got busy again, but I went out on a long walk with the dog later in the evening. Even though it wasn't as hot yesterday as it had been over the last couple of days, it was still a little hot for my very furry dog, so I had to cut my walk a little short because I could tell she was struggling a bit. I am now only 6K steps behind my sister-in-law. Planning on a bike ride and long walk today. My sister-in-law texted me yesterday and thanked me for the step competition because it has gotten her to be more active...that made me extremely happy.

I’m in again for another round!
Round 48 - Lost 7 pounds (178.8)
Round 49 - Goal - 2.8 (176.0) or more would be great
Weight on 8/5 -178.8
8/6 - 179.0 almost forgot to post today!
8/7 - 179.0 so hard to get motivated today. Should have been at the gym this morning by 5 or at least out for a run by 6. Neither will happen as I’m just too tired. Need to just shut up and suck it up! I will take a gym bag to work and go for a run after work. It’s called my punishment, running in the heat for not doing what I’m supposed to do when I’m supposed to do it!!!
8/8 - 179.0 - Lordy I’m exhausted. Ran, lifted and Walmart all before 6 a.m., on my feet at work for 10 hours, home for chores, cook dinner and finally a moment to post. I thought at 54 and an empty nester life wasn’t supposed to be so crazy!!!
8/9 - 180.0
8/10 - 180.2 - Honestly I wasn’t even going to post. Actually just thought of throwing in the towel. I hate hate hate gaining and feeling disappointed. But I guess that is the point of this challenge....accountability with the good the bad and the ugly! I know it wasn’t even a gain of much but that’s the way this ole gals mind works. Alas, y’all won’t get rid of me. Determined to hang around and see this through!!!! Thanks y’all.
179.6 - Hanging in there.

@jerier and @MadisonMolly2017 - thank you so very much for your encouragement and advice. Greatly needed and accepted with gratitude. I find it difficult to keep bad food out of the house with a junk food junkie husband and 20-year old young men in the house. However, that is no excuse. My husband is willing to put his cookies and chips in the basement where I can't see them and my boys would easily switch to the cut-up veggies and healthier options if I took the time to do them. It is my mindset. It needs to change. Your words and caring make me examine my motives.6
-
@Tigale: Thank you for taking the time to send me encouragement. You're right, we can absolutely do this!!! Eating junk creates cravings for more junk, so it's hard to break the cycle. But hard is not impossible, so let's join forces and with the strength of all the lovely people on this board, let's end this round with a WHOOSH!!!!7
