Day/Weight/Comment

8/16: 70.1 - Okay okay, I've been putting off posting here today because the number is higher than I would like. Pretty sure it's just a fluctuation, completely normal and nothing to worry about. I say: worrying. Anyway, an okay day yesterday. Ate fine, but had a packaged wrap for lunch and Chinese takeaway for dinner. Both salty and would which pretty much explain gain on the scales this morning. Takeaway is always hard to account for, so I hope that I've over estimated, but I could well have underestimated. Also did a bunch of scraping wallpaper glue off the walls which probably would burn some of those potentially extra calories but I have no idea how to log those, so I've not bothered. Can't believe I'm over half way through my maintenance week already.
8/17: 69.6 - Well, that's more like it, very much on track to maintain well this week. Difficult day yesterday, spent quite some time being very nervous about the interview I had today (it went well I think) and so food thoughts were not my top priority. Drank plenty of water in a hope of sorting out the saltiness of the previous day. Food wise, a slightly odd day. Not hungry at all in the morning, so had a protein bar I keep in my desk for snacks at around 10:30 (way later than normal). Then ate leftover takeaway with some rice for lunch, which felt like it should've been more filling than it was, but was enjoyable to eat. Then was ravenous when I got home and so ate what ended up being a modest sized dinner fairly early then wasn't very hungry for the rest of the evening. In fact I had to munch on a packet of crisps to get me close to my goal allowance. Still a little under, but only just.
8/18: 69.9 - A late weigh in, so was probably a little lower, but I stayed at a friend's so didn't have scales until I got home. I was expecting it to be a bad day yesterday with dinner and wine at my friend's, but then we skipped dessert as we weren't hungry and ended up only a little over my goal.
8/19: 69.0 - (I actually started writing this yesterday, but then we were in the car and I can't look down in the car) I mean I'm happy, but at the same time, I know that it's a down flux so I'm not going on that. Besides, still supposed to be maintaining. Anyway, ate my lazy food and was expecting to be a little over, then dinner again was very small and then I was under what I wanted to have to for the day. Ate some crisps trying to bump up the calories, but still ended up under. I also spent about 4 hours painting our hallway and was completely shattered by the end of the day. Week at maintenance completed. I'm actually going to push going back to deficit one day for tomorrow as we have a BBQ and I'll probably go over anyway, so I might as well make it planned. Also, easier to start deficit for me on a Monday.
8/20: 69.4 - Went for a BBQ for lunch yesterday. I'm 100% certain I have under logged because there was lots of nibbles that I have no idea how much I had. However, we also did some playing football with my boyfriend's nephews and some diy in the evening, so burnt some more calories than I'm probably accounting for too. I also didn't eat anything other than lunch, so although it was all my calories for the day, it was also all I ate for the day. Avoided all the things that I didn't really want eat (cheese on my burger, bread, baps), to save room for the food I really did want (meat, meat, & more meat). So I felt like I managed the situation reasonably well.

8/21: 69.5 - Back on the deficit. Forgot all my tricks to actually make a filling lunch and so had breakfast and lunch that were way too few calories and so I was ravenous all day (not making that mistake again today). When I ate dinner, I managed to have that "full, but also really hungry" feeling in my belly which was not very fun. I'm going to arbitrarily blame carbs because I had significantly less than I normally do. So I then had a slice of bread and felt much better. Judo in the evening, which I didn't eat back barely any of the calories for and yet I still felt overfull when training. All in all just a bit of a toughie yesterday trying to get back into the deficit.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.

REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Female, 44 yo, 169 cm
R50 (second round for me:)
R49 results: starting 63.2kg, end 61.7 kg (-1.5 kg

)

Target for this round is to go below 60 kg...59.9 would be an absolutely great result

Day/Weight/Comment
8/16 - 61.3 kg, yesterday had a very disciplined day after seing the morning weight slight increase. Low carb diet respected, 1 hour of yoga and no food after 18:00. Today I have a party , hope to keep drinks under control, We will see tomorrow morning the damages.
8/17 - 61.6 kg, small gain that is no surprise considering the 2 large beers that I have yesterday. I am happy there is no significant damage, back on track today & no party plans

8/18 - 61.1 kg, clean eating, no food after 18:00 and unfortunately no sport as my class was canceled.
8/19 - 60.7 kg, clean eating, low carb, yoga done and no food after 18:00. Had however a glass of white wine and I am happy that I didn't see it in the scale

8/20 - 60.8 kg, relatively clean eating but snacking too much, this is my challenge during the weekend, take few nuts, a cube of parmesan, again few nuts and didn't resist to a dry martini in the evening. So while I kept it under 20 carbs I think that I pushed a little bit on the calories side. On the positive side I have done my circuit class and started at home some arm exercises that I plan to do daily on top of the gym. Hoping to see my hidden muscles:)
8/21 - 61.4 kg, totally unexpected. I had a clean day , 21 carbs, 1100 cal and 3 liters of water + 1 class of TRX. I do not really understand what went wrong. I even was full of energy and cleaned my kitchen till 10 pm (my 14 yo son loves to cook and experiments in the kitchen but I need at least 1 hour of deep cleaning after he prepares something). I think that I was on the extreme side of energy as I was not able to sleep till 1 am and even after that I can remember that I moved from one side to another all night and now of course I can barely keep my eyes open. Hope tomorrow is a better day!

8/17 - 136 pounds. Ran an hour last night. Food was on point except for late-night snack.

8/19 - 133 pounds. No gym today. Relaxing and resting.

8/20 - 134 pounds. I knew I would see a bit of rebound. Back to the gym today.

8/16 - 156 - Wow, after all my whining last round, my weight suddenly seems to be moving in the right direction. I have a feeling this won't stick, but it sure is nice to see this number. I haven't seen this weight since 2001.
8/17 - 156.5 - Not too bad of a bounce back. I didn't get all my water in yesterday, so I'll be chugging it today.
8/18 - 156 - OK!
8/19 - 156 - I had a little extra salt today, so tomorrow may show it, but I'm really happy when my weight doesn't go up on the weekend!
8/20 - 155.5 - This is nice to see on a Monday morning!
8/21 - 155.5 - I'm holding steady and that's OK. I went into a slight panic this morning when I got in my office and realized I forgot to bring my half sandwich for lunch today. It's pretty funny because 6 months ago I would have used it as an excuse to go to the little restaurant next door and ordered their yummy ham and cheese sliders. Today, they've lost their appeal and I will make do with my banana, grapes, popcorn, and some crackers. It's amazing how the daily weigh in has changed my food choices/priorities.

My official weekly weigh in, is Tuesday evening @ TOPS, so my ticker tape will reflect that loss.

My ultimate goal is 175lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

8/17 - 146.8

8/18 - 148.0 when I woke up and 146.2 after I decided to go back to bed for a couple hours. Hoping the 146.2 is accurate but I also had a burger and booze last night so I see where 148 comes from. Either way I'm back on track today, Friday is always my relaxed evening when it comes to food and drinks because it's usually date night for me and my husband.

8/19 - 148.2 - I guess my body isn't ready to be rid of this number yet. I've lost pretty consistently since January though so being stuck here for a bit is ok.

8/20 - 149.0 - ok with being stuck but not gaining, so very frustrated. Kids start school tomorrow so things should be getting back on a pretty set schedule and I am definitely needing the consistency it'll bring.

8/21 148.0 - my weigh ins have moved to an hour earlier than I have been now that school has started and I have to get my son up early. Was completely expecting an increase and was going to be perfectly fine with it as I took the day off from work to spend a day out with my kids before the 1st day of school. It included pizza buffet and popcorn at the movies so still might see the increase tomorrow but going to eat as healthy as possible today and hope it doesn't jump again.

8/16 166.8 apparently my body likes this number lol. Ate 1200 calories last night ...right on the dot, never done that before. 80 min insanity and 2 liters of water. Overall a great day, no complaints. It has been two weeks since I last took my measurments so today I will have to do that

8/17 165.4 ate below my calorie goal but had a rest day with my exercise routine but did go on extra walks and did some HITT exercises for the first time. Drank 1 liter of water. Good day all in all.

8/18 164.8 my body is weird. I haven't seen a daily drop like this since my first round. Although I'm slightly skeptical because it happened so fast I'm still happy to see this number, even if it ends up being just for today. Ate under calories, exercised for an hour and drank 1 liter of water. I also took my measurment yesterday and in the past two weeks I lost an inch (everhwere). Not bad if I do say so myself. In-laws are coming for dinner tonight and although I will work hard to watch my portions, we will just have to see. *crosses fingers*

8/19-- 166.6. Last night I had a dinner party with the in laws at my place and although I stuck to my portions, ate tons of veggies and fruit for desert (plus exercised all morning before beginning the house cleaning and exercised after they had left) as the night wore on, the temptation of the food put out for the late night snacking took over. I ended up eating some cookies and after they had left potatoe pancakes (I blame my hubby for having the munchies) it's ok though. I am not as dissapoined as I thought I would be, probably because this wasn't necessarily a sabotage, just a moment of weakness and being up later than usual. I have no doubt it will come off in no time (hopefully faster then the other times I gained) 1 liter of water. Here is to a better day!!

8/20-- 165.4 ate well and exercised good. My body has been sore all weekend. It's started with my lower abs and yesterday my arms and calves, haven't felt this sore since I started working out. I was thinking of taking a day off but I am not crazy about the idea, so will probably do yoga and stretching. 1 liter of water. Have a great week everyone

8/21-- 164.8 wasn't hungry yesterday and exercised a lot. I was in a work out mood. Walked a lot, got 80 min of insanity in and even did some HITT exercises. I even had a weird energy boost at 12 30 am and worked out till 2. The only downside is I didn't get very much sleep. Hopefully I can just go to bed early tonight and feel better rested tomorrow. 1.2 liters of water. Hope everyone has a great day.

All the food I ate this week likely left me bloated. A lot of water yesterday and gym likely got the bloat and extra salt out. Looking good so far!

8/17 - 214.0 lbs - Well that's boring
8/18 - 214.6 lbs - I better start recording my food more closely , and stop licking the peanut butter spoon when my dogs get medication
8/19 - 214.0 lbs - I'm getting tired of looking at this number.
8/20 - 214.4 lbs

Age: 60 yrs. (Madonna, and Sharon Stone, and ME! LOL!)
Height: 5'3"

SW: Aug. 2016 -- 152
LW: May 2017 -- 120
GW: probably around 120 -- but I'd love to try to get even lower -- I must admit!
CW: When I weighed in on 8/15 I think I was 127.3....

Day/Weight/Comment
8/16 126.5 -- YES! Lowest weight in a year...so happy .... oh oh -- son is coming home for weekend before he
starts college for fall semester and that means lots of company and probably pizza....

8/17 127.1 -- creeping back up....oh no!

8/18 128.5 -- OH NO! So, this happens when you eat FOUR SLICES OF PIZZA late at night. What was I thinking?? (Well, it was thin crust and covered with arugula.) Anyway, I went to a 75 min. power yoga class this morning (after weighing in....) -- I do Baptiste yoga and it's done in a studio heated to 92 degrees -- we SWEAT -- which is good. Like I said in round 49 -- Do something that makes you sweat everyday.... trying to go down in pounds, not up!

8/19 -- 126.7 -- MUCH relieved this morning -- went out to brunch after yoga yesterday and had grilled shrimp, two overeasy eggs, and instead of grits (that was the menu item -- shrimp and grits!) they made me a beautiful garden salad -- greens, and veggies. No toast (gave it to hubby--it was beautiful three seed bread, but it came pre-buttered) and no salad dressing -- and it was EXACTLY what I wanted and needed! And that was early afternoon, so it was the meal of the day. Pretty much that and a glass of rose and life was great!

Lesson learned -- ask for what you want and will feel good about eating. (They would have given me a piece of UN-buttered toast, but I didn't want it anyway...) I would love to get to 125 by the end of this round. Doing a power yoga class again this afternoon. Sweat everyday!

8/20-- 126.7

8/21-- 126.7 -- missed logging in yesterday, but no changes anyway. Son is back at college, I am back teaching college, and life goes on. Structure in the day, once again. Hopefully will see a little change tomorrow -- have not been to yoga in a few days -- and can't make it today either. Hopefully tomorrow!
