Day/Weight/Comment
8/26, Sunday – 160.8 Last night was at our friends’ fiftieth wedding anniversary do – all 5 hrs of it. Fun but long and even though I was careful on the food, lots of extra salt and sugar. Hope this is mostly water weight but haven’t been all that careful this week so it may be payback.
8/27, Monday – 159.2 Maybe I can make it under 159 this time.
8/28, Tuesday – 159.2 Determined to sew myself a pair of pants today so I have something nice that really fits and in a color I like. I've sewn in the past but never pants for myself - I know there will be fitting to do but if I can successfully navigate that, it's a relatively easy sew.
8/29, Wednesday – 159.4

Strategy: eat better, drink vinaigre acide twice a day, burn 350-400 cal by doing exercices . Intermittent fasting. This round will try not to eat after 6PM, it seems that's very helpful for weightloss.

Hmm - I somehow messed up my days last round. No surprises there as I have very little routine right now and all my days are bleeding together! Whoops.
8/26 - Sunday - 185.5*
8/27 - Monday - 186.5* - So much salt the past few days. And so much moving. Got the table done, last heavy thing is the grill. Which is HEAVY. Landlord gave us the extra weekend to move/clean, yay! Still on an emotional roller coaster with the house - change is really hard for me. My dad reminded me that I cried when he painted the house, and also cried when they got rid of a 20 year old couch. So yeah, even good change is hard for me. But I'm learning not to hold to tightly to my feelings - the feelings come and go a little easier these days - I know its okay to feel scared of change, but I have to let it go and feel excited too! Applying these ideas to my weight loss journey too.
8/28 - Tuesday - 185.5* - More pizza and salt last night. Pretty wild day at work so I did not eat much, then basically binged when we finally ate. Need to avoid too skewed of eating and find a happy balance again. I need to start eating my breakfast protein shake again - not getting enough protein in general. And I find when I skip it I'm more likely to put off eating until I'm ravenous and it does not end well. Reminding myself in ALL aspects of my life that simply trying is the first and biggest hurdle for me. I've been stuck in a fixed mindset, that if I try something and fail, I'm somehow less smart because I did not succeed. But I'm moving towards a growth mindset - that trying and failing does not take anything away from me, it only gives me an opportunity to learn and grow from it - so keep trying!!!
8/29 - Wednesday - 185.5* - Still using new house scale. Still hovering around this weight. Mom helped me clean the apartment yesterday. Moms are the best. Packed, loaded and unloaded 2 cars worth of boxes. We worked hard and it was so hot! Moes for dinner - ate half my quesadilla and felt full! Another scorcher today. Will probably unpack some boxes tonight, and finish final moving tasks on Saturday; final dump run, scrapper to pick up washing machine etc, AAA to tow car, and move the grill and garden. Trying to be gentle and kind to myself as we adjust and find our new normal.
8/30 - Thursday - 185.0* - A ridiculous day at work had me hardly eating again. Took my PM meds and ended up light headed and woozy. Not enough water, not enough food, not enough energy to cook, not enough AC in the world to keep our house cool. So we went to the grocery store and grabbed a cheeseburger plate from the market for $3 and 750 calories its my new "I need to eat dinner that's not take out but want take out" meal! Emptied two boxes and set up basement game room so we watched a movie down there where it was cool and didnt do much else. I know I need to drink lots of water and eat an adequate amount so I can finish this move strong. Definitely starting to burn out so I need to be mindful and work with my body, not against it.

8/26, 230, Under calorie goal.
8/27, 231, Constipated at weigh in. Hopefully lighter tomorrow.
8/28, 231, Just fat I guess. Pretty sure my garmin is inflating my calories burned each day. Gonna stay much farther under my calorie goal from now on.
8/29 Forgot to weigh in, adjusted calorie goal to lose 2 pounds per week, mostly ignoring calories burned as per my garmin.
8/30, 230, So glad it wasn't stuck at 231 again.

8/26 - 149.4 - Oh come on! ugh, I give up. Not actually but this is really frustrating, time to find some motivation and something to finally get my body to start dropping the weight again.
8/27 - 149.4 - My 10 day average shows a loss so that's something I guess. Got to get back on track before these numbers tell a different story.
8/28 - 148.6 - well I'm finally heading back in the right direction, hopefully it keeps dropping each day this round.
8/29 - 148.6
8/30 - 149.8 - worked out yesterday, sore muscles this morning so hopefully just holding water and it will be gone soon.

UGW 125
8/26 162.4 new week new start. Ate good, walked around with my hubby but my water needs to be better, 1 liter. Hope everyone has a great week!!
8/27 161.6 90 min of endurance challenges (plank, crunches, pushups, squats) ate delicious healthy food and drank 1.5 liters of water. Happy to see this number!!!! I know (from experience) that if I keep this up I will easily reach the 50s. Having said that though, I know once I start my 50s those 10 pounds will be way harder to take off from the last 15. Not going to think about that now though, just planning to keep moving forward.
8/28-- 161.4 I drank a bottle of water before I weighed in....oops. Yesterday I had another boost of energy which I find is happening more often then it used too. I did 150 min of exercising, the only issue with that being I ended up staying up till 1 30 in the morning 😥😥 i took the day off because I am going to the hospital with my aunt for the day (nothing serious) so at least I got to sleep in longer then usual but i do need to better manage these energetic days. I was also less hungry, forcing down my food. I always feel like there is no comfortable medium for me I am either always hungry or not hungry at all. 1.6 liters of water
8/29 ---160.8 crazy morning..So happy I can finally post. Ate out yesterday (haven't gone out to a restaurant in forever) but grabbed all healthy alternatives and stayed within my calorie goal. I'm excited by this number but yesterday's lunch had tons of sodium so I am hoping that this number doesn't increase too much or at all by tomorrow. Walked a good amount of the day and didn't get around to my usual work out routine (guess yesterday was my one rest day this week) and drank 1 liter of water. I can't wait to see those 50s, but I am trying not to get my hopes up just yet...TOM will be here in a couple of days
8/30-- 160.6 my body likes to tease me as I reach a new weight range. Exercised for 90 min, ate within my calories and 1.6 liters of water. Hope everyone has a great day.

@mthomas0228 same thing with me!!! I took my measurements and noticed I am less in inches now then I was 10 pounds lighter. What's the difference? Those measurements from 10 pounds lighter were taken while I was not exercising...while the more recent inches are due to (almost excessive) exercising.5

8/26 – 175.3 lbs Today I am wearing a tank top in my own house for the first time in many years. I wasn’t even comfortable with wearing a tank top when I was home alone! I’m so motivated again after the huge loss last round.
8/27 - 174.8 (-0.5) I am just feeling so motivated right now. Went out and bought new a new exercise outfit today (as my old ones were sizes XL-XXL and now I’m a M-L). Was so happy trying on clothes, that I could have bought everything they had if my economy wasn’t crying for help hahah. It’s an indescribable feeling to actually feel good when trying on clothes. Finally starting physical therapy tomorrow and I’m so excited I’m not sure I’ll be able to sleep tonight. Really hope it can help with my super low blood pressure and my fainting. (I have Addison’s disease! )
8/28 - 173.9 (-0.9) I have no idea what’s going on here, but I’ll take it! I was stuck on 180+- for 2 months and now I’m just flying through 170? That’s fine by me! 😅 Did nothing else than reduce my carb intake and eat more fat/protein. Exact same calorie intake. Going to the gym to meet my physical therapist in an hour. Update on how it went tomorrow 😄 Super excited! Hope everyone has a nice day.
8/29 – 173.2 (-0.7) Physical therapy yesterday was awesome. Focused on balance and core. We decided that it’s smart to focus most on butt, hips and legs to start with. She was so awesome and understanding and didn’t want to pressure me until i faint. Gonna see her again on Friday :-D Aiming for exercise 5 times a week in the long run, but I have to build up a bit first.
8/30 – 173.0 (-0.2) I get so inspired by all the people who come here everyday and write about their journey. It means everything to read about your goals, weaknesses and strengths and not to mention the motivation behind your weight loss. Keeps me super motivated everyday. I have never been as motivated as I am after I joined MFP. Earlier I could go on these powder diets and feel like I was starving for a few weeks, then I would totally come crashing down with just a big feast of food.. And gain even more weight than I lost! Now, I'm looking at it on a whooole other level and I feel really good. I'm never hungry and I eat food that tastes good and does my body good. I can thank the myfitnesspal community for that. You truly are an inspiration

-68.9 lbs in 972 days, 28 days until my 1,000th day!
(1 lb every 14.2 days on avg)_
-45.6 of them since Sept 27, 2017 (336 days)
(1 lb every 7.5 days on avg.)
* Micro changes in habits each week create magic!
* Daily exercise - even a mild stroll- makes a big difference...
** When you most feel like giving up, and you keep going, that’s when the scale really drops!
*** I had given up on dieting, and had forgotten completely how good it feels to be lighter. ****Everything is easier and pain free. A miracle.

8/27 160.2 BMI: 24.0 Trend: 160.4 Loss/wk: 1.0 Hiked big hills. No pain during or the next day. Amazing.
Got rid of clothes that are too big for me except some I love & *might* alter.
Went through more of my “thin clothes” & they all fit. Glad I didn’t give up on them. They made it easier to get rid of the things that are too big because they make that very clear. I will wear these until I decide on my final end weight. Then I might get some new items to wear with the others. Closet is *almost* to the point where everything in it is something I love & can wear now, as opposed to when I was heavy (pre-Marie Kondo) when it would take me forever to go through the closet to find one thing that did fit that I could wear. Never. Going. Back.
8/28 161 BMI 24.1 Trend 160.5, Loss/wk 1.90
I’m doing all I should be. This is the nature of the beast. I’m sure it will bounce back down. I could list about 5 possible reasons ... but why bother
I’m still down 5 lbs since the end of July. My best in a year, I’ll take it.
Pilates with arm
Weights, walked fast, calories under by ~460
Tightening up my calorie deficit!
8/29 159.8 BMI: 23.9!!!!! HIT the 23’s for FIRST TIME!!Trend 160.2 Loss/wk 1.0
This is a Huge day for me.
I don’t think I’ve been in 150’s since I dieted in 9th grade. I finally look like I felt inside all this time. Just a few more pounds, not there yet, but mid-torso is slimming & toning, almost there!!
I’ve always heard the last 5-10 lbs are the hardest. It scared me. I had two slower weight loss months in June & July after dieting for many months. Then recommitted. The weight came off fastest this month than any of them. I guess we never know how it will go. Having written this, I bet I’ll have a 2-3 month plateau
8/30 159.4 BMI: 23.9 Trend: 159.9 Loss/wk: 1.1
Blinks. Weighed myself twice. Blinked again. I was really hungry yesterday (rate for me) & rose it out with great choices, using all the “tricks” & habits I’ve developed over 35 months. Veggies, balancing macros, water, mindfulness, fiber, and NUTS. It was stressful, but not too hard. Woke up hungry, much more than regular. I will see how it goes; I may increase my calorie deficit a little. -6.6 lbs in August is too much/fast for me, especially close to GW. It IS exciting, though.
Bought a new bra yesterday. Lots of positive self-talk. I feel so great physically, but not as thin as I thought. Being kind to myself & actively noticing the positive.

Not long back from a bunch of short breaks and a week long holiday, really struggled to get out of the holiday mentality this year, hoping this extra daily accountability will help.
Also have non-scale goals for September:
I've been in a tiny deficit this week, could have done so much better but have done a lot of boredom eating, going to shift back to eating dinner later as I think this gave me less time to fridge-raid.
My aim for today is to stick to just dinner when I get home, no fridge-raiding, no excuses!

Round 1
MFP Starting weight Jan 2014: 225 lb
8/26
8/27: 204.6. My start date. Off to a good start. 1 hour of exercise, 5 servings of fruits/veggies, 60 oz of water, and under my calorie goal.
8/28: 203.8. I got lots of walking in today and my legs are still sore from yesterday. I didn't drink as much water today and had popcorn and chicken fried steak so I'll probably see an increase in weight when I weigh again tomorrow morning. I was under my calories for today though. I completed my food log at the beginning of the day and substituted foods if I was craving something else.
8/29: 202.2. Another pleasant surprise this morning. My legs are still sore so today I used the stationary bike and did upper body strength training. Under calorie goal again. Tomorrow I probably won't have time to exercise so I really need to watch my calorie intake.
8/30: 202.2. No change. Goal for the day is drink water, stay under calorie goal, and try to exercise a little while even though it's a busy day.

@Bendiz_ I totally agree!!! Before I would look at eating healthy and working out as a chore, crashing before I got anywhere and getting discouraged easily...but now it's almost as if this journey is exciting. More like an adventure then work. It's so helpful reading people's daily recordings and ultimately it doesn't make me feel alone. The advice, community and support is great!!!6

R49--AW: 220.7 (-) EW: 221.3 (-)
R50--AW: 219.7 (-1) EW: 218.9 (-2.4)
Goal: Be conscious of my snacking in the evenings.
8/26--218.4 Zumba was great yesterday. Installing the closet organizers yesterday took longer and was a lot more work then I thought, but so far so good. I was so focused on the closet yesterday that I hardly drank any water...I can definitely feel it this morning. Plan is to finish putting up the wall paper and installing some more of the closet organizer. I am so sore from yesterday that the plan, assuming the rain holds off, is to go for a long walk.
8/27--219.3 I don't know where that weight came from, I can only assume it's the lack of water I had over the weekend and the soreness from working on the closet organizer...which is now 2/3 done. Regardless, my weight trend is still downward. Forgot to bring my running shoes for a lunch time walk, so going to Zumba tonight and hopefully work on the closet a little this evening.
8/28--220.0 Late check in. Went for walk yesterday with dog. Did some more work on closet and relaxed for rest of evening.
8/29--220.6 Hmmm, I have been feeling heavy these last 3 days and it is showing in the scale. No idea why. This has happened before so I need to figure out why. The first thing I can think of is my water, I have not been drinking my same level of water over the past 3 days as I usually do, so that is the first thing I will make an adjustment to and then see what happens. Regardless of the weight increase I have been eating within my calorie goals, so that is a positive.
8/30--219.7 Feeling less heavy today. Went to yoga yesterday. I am increasing my water today and will see what happens. Plan is long walk this evening.
