8/15 189.5* (* denotes weigh in on scale that is at the new house not my usual apartment scale)

8/16 - Thursday - 187.0* - As much as I'd like to base my goal of this number not yesterdays - I know that's not realistic. I didn't eat enough yesterday as it was too hot to cook and I didnt have an appetite either. I also weighed on not my scale again and tomorrow will be on my scale, so I'm taking all these numbers as data, but not very specific data. Like I said last round - more focus on my mental health these days. No lunch packed as I'm VERY in limbo - DH wants moes for lunch and I started panicking that it wasnt healthy and would cost too much. But guess what - it is what it is! So instead, I'm rejoicing that I get to eat a quesadilla and realizing that I already planned a little financial cushion this week because we need to eat and cooking thru this is not realistic. I definitely have a caloric cushion too because I've been undereating surprisingly these past few days.

8/17 - Friday - 189.0 - Moving day. Hot. Humid. Thunderstorms. Got it done. We are bruised and battered but I am in awe of what I accomplished. Saying thanks to my body for being the beast I forgot it could be. I did one season of heavy lifting way back when and would love to get back into it! I definitely didnt expect moving to make me love my body more but it did.

8/18 - Saturday - 186.5* - ate fried chicken after completing what felt like a heroic feat of a move. Unpacking some boxes today but taking it easy. Havent been sore like this in a long time but I don't mind one bit. a reminder of what I accomplished. Went grocery shopping for some things for the week.

8/19 - Sunday - 189.5* - Made a nice big breakfast, but not much of an appetite. Enjoyed the morning at the new house with DH and coffee on the porch though. Went out to run errands and get some yard working supplies. Took the pup to the local arts and crafts fair. Came home and had a light lunch of leftovers and walked. Took back my bird watching shed from the rhododendron that was trying to eat it and did some weeding. Shook out the rugs and brought them all in. DH took me out for ice cream at our new local farm! Pup got one too and we watched the cows in the field. Home for dinner (we ate backwards ) and DH cooked chicken quesadillas while I made some more progress on Laundry and closets. Can't believe what we accomplished in one weekend. Plenty of house projects to keep us busy like that for the next 30 years!

8/20 - Monday - 189.0* - Need to bring my scale to the house! Getting back to a routine, or trying to atleast! Lots of projects going on! Happy to be maintaining!

Round 50

Day/Weight/Comment

8/16 — 138.2 — Got sick with what I think was food poisoning last night, still not at 100%. Scale will probably go back up tomorrow when I feel like I can eat again 🤢

8/17 — 138.8 — I was able to eat again yesterday, and actually ended up getting chipotle last night. I’ve been doiong so well eating at home and not out, so was bummed I gave into temptation. However, after after the night I had before I gave myself a pass. Back to being hydrated and I’m shocked the scale didn’t go up more than it did. Pretty happy overall. 😊

8/18 — 138.4 — I really tried to focus on drinking tons of water today. Stayed under my calories for the day, but generally had a lazy day at home. 🙃

8/19 — 138.8 — Kept my calories in my normal range yesterday, going out to lunch and to a concert today so will try my hardest to make good decisions while I’m out.. 😬 wish me luck, haha. On a side note: I am loving this challenge, it makes it easy and fun to keep myself accountable. Thank you 🙏🏼 to the person who thought of this great idea💡!

8/20 — No weigh in — I did okay yesterday besides having 4 glasses of wine through the day and night. Feel bloated today, but didn’t go too over my calorie limits. Today was my first day back to school so I completely forgot to weigh myself since the schedule change!

@CathyVee You would have to eat 7000+ calories to gain 2.6 pounds in a night???? I eat 1200 calories everyday and see a 3 lb gain if I indulge to closer to 2000 (which isn't hard to do on pizza nights or any other day of take out)

My metabolism suuuuuuucks

Day/Weight/Comment
8/16- Did to much outside, and made my face swell I am having a hard time cutting down from steroids. Walking helps alot!
8/17- My steps were down today. Lack of sleep has been hard on me. I start my cut backs again so I don't take one steroid today and then tomorrow I take one they are very hard on me. I can hardly wait to be done with them.
8/18 - Still having a rough day! Goal for tomorrow going, outdoor a long walk! I don't know if cutting back steroids is making me swell n my face. But I have to go Monday to the doctors.
8/19 Feeling a lot better today. Walking steps 11,258. Eating healthier today.

8/20_ Went to the Cancer Hospital today had an appointment with my team doctor, I am doing 100%. She said I owe to keeping up with my normal day, Started my treatments the end of June and today included no symptoms at all. My test EEG brain waves was perfect which means no seizures. Now I am done there ,until November for MRI. I am very fortunate.

That's not your metabolism ... that's water retention due to high sodium in things such as pizzas.

You would have to eat 7000+ calories to gain 2.6 pounds in a night???? <--- this is everyone regardless of sodium. (Actually is 3,500 calories per pound of fat) that's science.

8/16 85.6kg (+0.1kg) That's really fine after a 7 ounce lost overnight! I'm thinking of slowing down the weightloss, since I don't need to loose too much more weight (about 6kg/13lbs). On the other side, things go well and it isn't very hard on me to eat less. So not sure yet. I'm leaving in 4 weeks on a 3 week trip to Botswana and Namibia in Africa. Maybe I'll just continue till then the way I do now and slow down after the my vacation.... And how knows...... maybe I just don't wanna stop at 79 kilo's
8/17 85.9kg (+0.3kg) Went out on a lovely 5 course surpirse- dinner with my hubbie!
8/18 85.7kg (-0.2kg) The dog is back in the house, my steps per day goes up
8/19 85.7kg (-0.0kg) Not only did my steps go up today, also my kcal intake hahahaha
8/20 85.7kg (-0.0kg) Had a lovely Sunday, stayed way under my kcalgoal, walked along the beach
8/21 85.7kg (-0.0kg) Busy day, ate well, I moved a lot, the scale doesn't
