Day/Weight/Comment
8/06- Holiday weekend, just needed some rest, 2more treatments of radiation. Even my steps are down, going to pick up tomorrow.
8/07- picked up on my steps today, tried stretching. Eating healthy.
8/08- I thought this date would never come, today I finished my last day of Radiation. Thirty treatments completed. I was so lucky not one side effect. Now to focus on healthy eating and lots of exercise.
8/09- Today I made cauliflower soup for lunch, My neighbour has been great and gave me all different colours of tomatoes, and cucumbers.
8/10-Tonight I can start to cut my steroids in half, for a week. Hopefully this helps with sleeping and eating. Enjoyed the great weather this afternoon, and then my husband and I went to find a patio for dinner. Goal is to start working harder to achieve my weight loss.
8/11- Went shopping to today, bought lots of vegetables and fruits. Tried to watch my food portions.
8/12 Walking steps are up- 12,600. Still having a hard time with eating because of steroids, I tried not to eat in-between meals, dinner I was starving I could feel it even in my arms. I tried more fruits and vegetables.

R1: Lost 1.7 (SW 196.8 EW 195.1)
R2: Lost 0.7 (SW 195.1 EW 194.4)
R3: Gained 3.7 (SW 194.4 EW 198.1)
R4: Lost 2.8 (SW 198.1 EW 195.3)
R5: Lost 1.1 (SW 195.3 EW 194.2)
REALLY want to get to 190 this round. I'm just tired of hovering right above it. I've been doing so for forever. It's ridiculous. I need to realize that even if I get down to 190, I'm still obese. It shouldn't be this hard. It's not like some big accomplishment or feat. You're going from obese to still obese. Just do it.
SW: 194.2
GW: 190.0
Plan to reach this goal:
-Restricting eating out to only two times maximum in the next 10 days.
-Pre-plan the night before and make sure you have all of your ingredients at home and follow through.
-Workout at least 3 times a week (Goal of running at least 4.5 minutes straight at 6.5 mph)
Day/Weight/Comment
8/06- 194.8- My weight is fluctuating currently, I think it will be fine by the end of the week.
8/07- 195.2- Honestly, had heavy meals yesterday. Celebrated my friend's birthday with burgers and a dessert that we shared. Going to take it easy today. I will say that yesterday I didn't eat that much dessert so that's good. Going to eat lightly today so hopefully that helps with the upwards fluctuation.
8/08- 195.2- hmm. not sure what to say lol. was over my calories a little so that's the culprit, i know.
8/09- No weigh-in
8/10- Forgot to weigh-in in the morning. Mid-day got 196.8. UMMMM. lol freaked me out.
8/11-194.2- Much better lol. I'm happy this is going back down. I think the fluctuations may have been hormonal which is fine. Here's to making the most out of the last 5 days. I ate PRETTY healthy, like snacking on cherries and grapes right now and had a fruit smoothie with honey for breakfast although I did have top ramen noodles at lunch (not healthy at all lol) but still under my calories so hopefully tomorrows weigh-in will reflect that. FINGERS CROSSED.
8/12- 193.1- lol yay. being under your calories works! haha. I'm over today though. Will be under tomorrow. Hopefully this doesn't make me go up again lol

@MadisonMolly2017 thanks so much for the advice!!
I do notice on the days I work out, i tend to take in way too few calories that by the end of the week I think I feel famished and starving for my cravings. It becomes harder to not give into the temptaions (especially if it's a day I don't work out as much) and the feeling of depraving myself pushes me to over consuming. So I might just take your advice on adding a little more calories to my loss days.
Walking is a good idea and I'm sure my dog wouldn't mind the extra walks lol i will definetley have to remember that
I hate having to white knuckle it. I noticed that weekends were my grocery shopping days, so the fruits and veggies tend to be more scarce on Saturdays, especially if I decide to shop on Sunday which might cause a bit of a problem. I then start eating whatever I have and stop thinking.
Not that it is an excuse but I grew up in a house hold where junk food was second nature, we used to eat sugary, salty foods (from chocolate to chips) as if they were meals. Now as an adult, even though I started taking up cooking and experimenting with veggies and fruits and making much better eating choices, every so often the feeling of junk food does consume my thoughts and it's almost as if the nostalgia is more of a trigger then the "food" itself. Sometimes I am even "afraid" like an addict at the idea of giving these foods up even if it's followed by feeling ridiculous. But like you said, I have identified the problem and I am trying to work on it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and write I appreciate it7 -

Day/Weight/Comment
8/06 71.5kg - unfortunately can't do my run and exercises today as I am incredibly sore from yesterday's boxing class
8/07 72 - it's ok, had a really *kitten* day at work, did a little comfor eating, then got stuck on a hot train for 20mins, and had late dinner. Went over my cals, not by as much as I thought I would. And made a better choice for late night snacking and avoided the glass of wine I really wanted.
New day today!
8/08 71!!! - WHOOSH! Oh this is awesome. I had a much better day yesterday. Stayed within calories even though I had loads of snacks, ran in the morning and boxing in the eve. Rest day today and drinks tonight, but i'm motivated to keep it sensible (even tho the group of friends i'm meeting is everything but)
8/09 71 - it is still here! I went over my calories last night and had a bit of an emotional chocolate binge. But when i say binge, I had 4 pieces instead of a whole bar.
Tonight my 11yo niece will arrive, I'm sure there will be some ice cream, cookies and pizza over the weekend, but I aim to stay reasonable
8/10 visitor - 71kg. I feel like this is my weight now. I'll wait til after the weekend before changing my apps.
Also, my niece's flight last night got cancelled due to bad weather. This was the second change of plans during an emotionally exhausting week. I don't like changes of plans very much. So I allowed myself to eat treats and go over my calories yesterday. Then I also decided to sleep instead of run this morning. This is all ok, I feel I need it, I just have to be mindful not to get cocky about the 71 and throw it all away...

Not good. Not good at all. Actually not 100% fair. Yes I was eating a little more than normal, but looking at Friday I didn't go stupidly over, and Saturday (unlogged) I only ate two meals, did lots of walking, and dancing. But there was a lot of drinking. A LOT of drinking. Ugh. Anyway, friday and saturday where okay, it was hangover day that really killed it:
8/06: 71.6 - Yesterday was not good. Riding back on a motorbike for 4 hours, on a hangover, was not good. We went and had a breakfast buffet around half 10. A terrible decision, not just for the waistline, but also the wallet. I used to be able to eat enough at these to almost make it worth while, but neither me, nor my boyfriend were able to eat enough for that. But we did eat enough (and slow enough) to mean that lunch was not necessary. Then the dreaded dominoes for dinner, of which I ate way too much. After the weekend I've had, and the salt in that dinner, I am not at all surprised with the jump in weight. Pretty sure most of it will be water weight, and will settle away soon. I will be tracking the next couple of days closely to see how it comes off.
8/07: 69.8 - Erm, well that went well. Going to really mess up all my stats, but further proof that one day a diet does not ruin. A really odd day. Normally I would've been at judo in the evening, but I wasn't feeling well (I'm still not feeling well today) so didn't go. In addition my tummy was all over the place, so tried to stick to something blander foodwise, and plenty of water. I'm expecting it was all that greasy and salty food over the weekend playing havoc so hopefully it'll now have passed. I'm certainly feeling better in that respect. Went over calories, but not massively. Reasonably happy with the day. Hopefully will be able to get down to the 69.3 again in the next couple of days.
8/08: 69.5 - Still recovering from the weekend. I'm expecting the scales to stop moving quite so dramatically now. Yesterday was generally good. Dinner was significantly smaller than I was expecting and so stayed well within calories besides snacking on nutella and peanut butter. Looking forward, I'm hoping to get to 69 dead before the end of this round. Then I've decided I'm going to take a diet break. I really feel that I need one. My last few weeks have been all over the place, and I think that some time not eating at a deficit will really help me refocus. I'll probably go for a week and see how that goes.
8/09: 69.5 - I always forget how filling, for how few calories, a stir fry is. Kept my calories low, and meant I was able to enjoy a mini milk and a carrot cake slice, and still be under my lower target. After a tough couple of days it's nice to have a super low day that I felt completely comfortable with.
8/10: 69.5 - Still here. Another great day yesterday! Super low breakfast and lunch meant that I could enjoy all the meat at the BBQ for dinner (which we were having even if it was raining a little bit). Passed on the bread meant that I could enjoy a welsh cake for dessert (yeeees) and still be under calories. And the nice mini milk put me slightly over lowest value, but still way within target.
As an aside: I've been feeling super tired all week, trying to work out if it's a cold, hay-fever, lack of sleep, a result of my deficit, catching up from the weekend, or something else. Hopefully it'll pass.
8/11: 69.5 Was just hungry. I was over calories, and I'm not quite sure how. I just grazed on food and was still just hungry. Not great.
8/12: 70.1 Judo, only coaching, so didn't get nearly as much exercise as normal. Friend's BBQ afterwards, which I ate way too much at, much more bread and cheese than I normally eat. It was a poor party and damnit, even thought it wasn't very warm we went into the pool anyway. So I got some swimming in, and lots of jumping around in the water, trying to convince ourselves that it wasn't massively freezing cold.
8/13: 69.7 Okay, from yesterday I have decided I am having that week diet break I'd been promising myself. The last few weeks I have been binge cycling days on and off. Stress of life is mildly getting in the way and I think that just a week of more calories will make me be able to refocus, knuckle down and push for those lower numbers. Of course, first day on and I'm below calories even though I ate cake and had a cheesy sauce on my pasta, but I'm going to try and balance it out over the rest of the week. Pretty sure I'm going to be adding my extra calories in by increasing the size of my lunches. It'll be interesting if this completely negates my hunger pangs at about 5ish. Anyhoos. Change of pace for me. Already interesting in the difference this'll be.

Hi everyone - newish to this challenge (not to MFP!) and a bit late to this round... Goal for this round is to FINALLY get under 80 kg bc it is just way too high of a number for me and I am fed up with it. And I love the accountability this challenge gives me!
Day/Weight/Comment
8/06 80.8 kg (178.1 lbs)- down from the weekend, happy with this as it means I managed to stay within calories but still managed to enjoy myself.
8/07 80.6 kg (177.7 lbs) - another drop... Have to keep on keeping on! Planning to workout this afternoon but it is going to be SUPER hot so I don't know how motivated I will be. Have to remember to hydrate in any case!
8/08 80.5 kg (177.5ish lbs) - slow and steady! Gym was good yesterday, upper body workout, not too much cardio involved which was fine because it was SO humid and warm. Finally rained last night, I feel like I can breathe again.
8/09 80.5 kg -same as yesterday. Felt really bad yesterday morning, don't know why, probably heat and lack of sleep. Did stay within calories. Feeling a bit better today, so that's good.
8/10 81.1 kg - ugh. just, ugh. I guess this is to be expected bc I worked out hard yesterday and though I stayed within calories, working out gave me a lot more calories to play with so I ate a relatively large amount of food. But still, meh. Hope the combination of bloating and food baby goes away soon, but with the weekend coming up I am not so sure...
8/11 81.1 kg - felt lousy all day and didn't make the best choices - not the worst either, but def not the best - so I am just glad it's not worse.
8/12 did not weigh as was away
8/13 81.3 kg. Well. This happens when you go away on the weekend for a nice hotel stay and then proceed to enjoy going out to eat and having the breakfast buffet and stuff. I know this is mostly bloating, and of my own doing. Let's see how much damage I can reverse before end of this round. Hitting goal seems unlikely though.

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.
8/12 - 61.5 discipline is the key. Low carb, sport and no food after 18:00.
8/13 - 61.7 auchhhh, not a very disciplined Sunday. done the sport and have a very good first half of the day but got lunch with a friend and indulged more carbs then necessary plus some wine. However back on track today and hope to have a better report for tomorrow.

08/06 183.0 A nice way to begin the round. I wasn't expecting a drop. I was tired and sedentary all day. I couldn't figure out why, until this morning. I never did take my meds yesterday. It seems to be a long weekend thing - I will have to be more mindful come labour day.
08/07 184.2 A good day yesterday. Took my boys to the movies and then a nice long walk. Dinner was late but calories were on target. I.m not worried about the uptick - it will work its way out.
08/08 184 A good day yesterday lots of walking - i did fall and land heavily on my knee and this morning it is stiff and sounds like Velcro ripping when i bend it. It's also pouring rain outside - so less walking today -that's OK more time for needlework - although the piece i.m working on is just as grey as the rain!
08/09 183.1 100 days on MFP and 17 lbs lost. The plan right now is to stay in weight loss mode for another 100 days and then re-assess. I may switch to maintenance for the winter.
08/10 182.2 My workout buddy is on vacation, so I am going to start the day with a long walk instead.
08/11 181.4 I don't expect that to hold. Yesterdays long walk never happened. Spent the day yesterday at the ER with my son. (they could not explain his abdominal pain) So very little to eat or drink all day. Came home and slept 12 hours so definitely dehydrated at weigh in this morning.
08/12 182.6 that was expected - yesterday was a very sedentary day, and sodium and sugar were both higher than usual. Back on track today. Fortunately DS is feeling a lot better today.

So much for feeling better on the anti-inflammatory plan - today I'm hurting all over. But I'm sticking with it - I know it takes at least a few weeks for dietary changes to make a difference. I managed to work in my garden for a while yesterday, dead heading flowers & other smallish jobs. I'm going for a walk now, before it gets too hot. Walking does seem to help a little.
8/07 - 146.4 - 1112 - 10-day ave 1344
Eating mostly veggies with some fruit, fish, eggs, nuts. I slept a lot of yesterday, which did seem to help the pain a little. Today is rainy, so I guess I'll be walking indoors.
8/08 - 145.6 - 1268 - 10-day ave 1306
The good news is I'm losing weight on my anti-inflammatory diet. The bad news is I hurt all over. Got blood work back for array of auto-immune issues - all negative, thankfully, but something's going on. I keep pushing myself to walk, but mostly I don't feel like doing much. Whine.
8/09 - 146 - 1072 - 10-day ave 1265
Just wasn't hungry yesterday, but I'll push for more calories today. Never thought I'd say that!
8/10 - 145.2 - 1080 - 10-day ave 1248
Another lots-of-veggies not-very-hungry day with low calories. I'm off to see a rheumatologist this morning (and - more promising to me - an integrative medicine doctor next week) to try to get a handle on my pain, and afterward we're going to try a new-to-us vegan/vegetarian restaurant my hubby spotted. They have a very interesting menu and I plan to EAT. :-) I am happy about my downward weight trend, though, since cutting out bread and pasta and meat other than fish. Have a lovely weekend, all!
8/11 - 146.2 - 1009 - 10-day ave 1175
I never thought I'd say this, but I clearly need to eat more. I just haven't felt hungry beyond what I'm eating the past few days - lots of veggies, black beans, chick peas, fish, brown rice, fruit mostly. The up tick must be sodium from the very excellent vegan/vegetarian restaurant we tried yesterday, though the food didn't taste salty. Really delicious! I saw the rheumatologist yestetrday and he wants to put me on a short course of prednisone, and I'm extremely reluctant yet sorely tempted because of the pain I'm in. Appt. with integrative med doctor on Thursday, and I'm trying to suck it up until I see her. Maybe I can just take long walks (they loosen me up) and sleep until then? Pain sucks. I hope you're all feeling better than I am! (I'll stop whining soon.)
8/12 - 145.6 - 1187 - 10-day ave 1160
Well, my low calories explain my weight loss this round, but I need to eat a few more calories. I just haven't felt hungry after meals and snacks. I went for a lovely walk last evening along the river, which made my aches and pains feel a little better for a while, and otherwise had a lovely, laid-back Saturday. UU pitch-in today - I can't eat the goodies I'm taking, but someone will!
8/13 - 145.4 - 1336 - 10-day ave 1168
I had to guestimate calories from the pitch in, but I stuck to vegetables and fruit and did pretty well, I think. Looking forward to a salmon salad for lunch!

Day/Weight/Comment
•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
•8/11 - 185.4
•8/12 - 185 - again, lol
•8/13 - 185.8 - fluid retention yes, but also there is the point 8! Completed 185 set.

8/06 177.8// My goal for this challenge is to get down to the 174’s. My lowest weight last challenge was 175.4 and I know that I’m retaining a lot of water today. I have a lot planned for this week but I know that I can stay under calories and hydrate.
8/07 175.4// This just shows that the weight from yesterday was just water weight, this was my last weigh-in and I’m hoping to decrease this number. This week ended up being a little chaotic and I have plans to do some sort of work-out every day/evening.
8/08 176// A little disappointing, but I’ll just do better today. I drank a lot of water yesterday, but went over my calorie goals.
8/09 175.6// a loss is good. We’re going out to dinner tonight for a graduation celebration. The place specializes in grilled cheese, so I’m going to try to get a more plain grilled cheese as a treat and then eat a salad. I’m not expecting a loss tomorrow, but I’m trying to be good other than dinner today.
8/10 175.6// Holding steady which is better than a gain.
8/11 No weigh in
8/12 No weigh in
8/13 177.8/ This is exactly where I was last Monday. I’m bummed about it but certain that I’m just dehydrated. I can tell my rings are fitting a little tight and I probably didn’t hydrate well enough this weekend. NSV: I did a 10k on Saturday and worked out every day last week.
