JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 58

@jenn990205 -- Glad you and your husband had a blast! You've got the right attitude. That weight will come back off even if it takes a few days!

@abowersgirl -- You've got this. Just carry on. Nothing wrong with your feasting yesterday, just don't let it become a failure that spirals into crazy eating for the week!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/04- Couldn't weigh in this morning because I was at grandmother's house! I did go to a wedding party yesterday but half of my plate was salad and I only had a little bit of rice. The rest was sabzi (cooked spinach) and protein. Pretty proud of controlling myself tbh. Nonetheless, rice does make me retain water so maybe weight went slightly up (but I don't feel guilty at all because I haven't had rice in a while so I'm proud of myself and being reasonable!). Had a light salad for lunch which was satiating, delicious, and calorie-appropriate so will be under calories today so hopefully that'll help undo any damage due to yesterday but we'll see. Won't beat myself up if not, but staying focused the next few days.

11/05- 183.5- There it is lol. Staying focused today. Maybe we can make this go down tomorrow.

11/06- 184.5- Had to rush this morning. I don't think this is accurate. We'll see tomorrow!

11/07- 183.0- That major fluctuation scared me. Happy that it's a bit better. Was not rushed this morning so I have a healthy lunch and everything. Got a lot of studying to do. I think this should go down tomorrow. I feel in control. Also did HIIT yesterday. It felt really good. It was easy and at home. Will try to do this every night.

11/08- No weigh in

11/09- 184.0- Ugh. I've been eating not as well this challenge. Just kind of doing maintenance. I'm going to stop this and begin to follow the exact meals that I did a while ago when I was losing weight.

11/10- No weigh in

11/11- 184.0- have been feeling really off this whole week since Wednesday. I was in a mindset that I haven't been in for a long time. The mindset of "Well, I already messed up. Today won't make a difference either" and I've been in that mindset my whole life. It's basically what got me to my high weight. I kept messing the day up early in the day. But I feel good today. I think I'm getting over it. I have been eating good all day so far and I haven't been doing that the past few days so I think I'm over it. And I feel so much better.

11/12- 183.0- Did well yesterday. Going to do even better today. Maybe I can at least reach where I started.

11/04: 153.8/Birthday today. Celebrating losing 25 lbs. This milestone birthday was a kick in pants that I needed to do something, because it is only going to get harder to lose the older I get. I still have more to go, but very happy with my progress it is the best gift I could get.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/04 - 78.2kg, still incredibly bloated from my wild Friday but at least the scales came down a bit from the huge jump. Ready to smash this round and have no more cheat days until Christmas!
11/05 - 77.3kg, finally dropping down to where I was before Friday!! I have set myself a goal for the week to meet my step goal every day (I slack off on my days off). I’m going from Sunday-Sunday, met my goal yesterday and very close for today with still many hours of the day left
11/06 - 77.4kg, met my step goal for yesterday! Ate well, drank plenty of water!
11/07 - 77.3kg, ate well yesterday but didn’t meet my step goal :’( I was in a really bad mood when I got home from work and didn’t want to do anything. On a positive note I didn’t binge like I wanted to, or would have previously. On track to meet my goal today!
11/08 - 77.0kg, slow and steady...
11/09 - 76.8kg, I can’t complain, the scales are going down! Not meeting my step goal every day like I wanted to, but it’s okay. It’s Friday and I am NOT going to go over my calories like I always do!!!!
11/10 - 76.8kg, happy to say I didn’t go over my calories yesterday, breaking the Friday pattern!
11/11 - 76.9kg, seem to be stagnating a little, despite eating under my goal every day. I’ve noticed I’m not eating nearly enough fibre at all, so I’ve made sure to worry about that today.
11/12 - 76.6kg, finally! The bran has helped I was holding onto a lot of waste I think.
11/13 - 76.4kg met my goal for the round!! Really pleased my weight finally dropped down. I’m not sure if I’ll be back for the next round. I’ve just started using Lose It! and I’m really loving the interface. But I’m considering keeping MFP just to keep up with these challenges. If I stop doing daily weigh-ins, I’ll be back!

Round #58 My #4 round
Female/49 years/Missouri

Round 55 * -3.2 (I was sick)
Round 56 * +1.6
Round 57 * -1.8
Round 58 * TBD

OSW - 213 (highest weight ever 280 but I've had most of that off for more than 15 years but still)
CW - 190.2
RGW - 188.5
UGW – 135

Food Goals:
Get 5 servings of fruits/veggies every day.
Stay under my calorie goal of 1,400.

Exercise Goals:
Walk at least an hour 3 days a week.
Weight training 1 day a week
Other 1 day a week for an hour (biking/tennis/water aerobics or walking if nothing more fun is available)
Walk 45 miles in November (Nov 5th - 9.08 miles)

11/04 190.7 I walked a little over 2.5 miles yesterday. The weather was perfect for a walk but I was with girlfriend that wore the wrong shoes and couldn't really go any further. Love her and I am glad she's walking with me (she really needs to exercise and this is all she does is walk with me) but it did make me mad.
11/05 190.7 I got a late - slow walk in too late in the day. Forgetting about the time change, once again finished my walk in the dark. I have GOT to be more mindful of my surroundings. A couple of deer ran across the trail not 10 feet in front of me; scared the crap out of me. My nieces birthday celebration. She asked for chicken tortilla soup. Easily on the calories (I don't add the tortilla until the end so everyone can control their own) just a bunch of veggies, chicken breast, and seasonings. I might have had a loss if I had stayed to just one 2X2 gooey delicious brownie she wanted instead of cake.
11/06 190.4 Slight drop. Didn't exercise yesterday and normally I would go to the gym tonight, but I am traveling out of town for work and my BF is coming with me!!! I know he'll want to go to dinner etc. As long as I can stay in within my calorie goal I'll be fine. I will have no access to a scale until Friday morning.
11/07 No Scale I did end up going to the gym last night. I did a little more than an hour on the weight machines and drove 3.5 hours from KC to StL. I stayed within calories and sodium, which is all I can do these days. Tonight I should walk, we'll see what happens. Having the BF here is both good and bad. It's good because I get to spend time with him, it's bad because I don't want to work.
11/08 No Scale I did not do as well yesterday. I went over on calories, over on sodium, and did no exercise. That being said, I don't feel too bad physically or mentally. While I went over on calories they weren't "dirty", there was just too much of good stuff. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself when I finally get on a scale tomorrow but right now I'm ok. I just need to not do this again for awhile. Balance right?
11/09 188.7 Always good to see the scale go down. I suspect it will be back up slightly tomorrow but we'll see. Too cold and snowy to walk outside today. I'll be at the gym to get my 3 miles in tonight. I did walk a little yesterday but it was cold and snowing. I did find a couple of friends along the way, see below. The walk was actually very pleasant with the snow and the farm animals. There were cows on the other side of me, looking at me like I was crazy.
11/10 188.7 Walked at the gym Friday night. Decided to do the "Cardio" instead of just getting in my 3 miles. It was harder but the distance was short. I was under calories and stuff so All good.
11/11 189.6 I went a little crazy last night. I know that why I'm up today. I have my fingers crossed I will get back to 188 in the next two days. I'm posting late today because it's Sunday and we had a birthday party for the baby. I walked 4 miles today. I'm at 17.5 for the month so far. I am on track to do 45 for November. I spent a couple of hours cleaning house before folks got here today. I'm taking this week off and might do a little traveling. It will just mean I have more interesting places to walk .
11/12 189.0 Got a mile in today, but the snow kept me from doing much. I'm not sure if I will get back down to 188 tomorrow but it's still been a good round. I really enjoy this format.

I couldn't control myself about 3 weeks and easily I gained weight (about 2 kgs). I cannot help myself to eat deserts, fries, and alcohol. In 3 weeks probably I went to the gym just 3 times. Yesterday night I went again, I hope this will be a new begining. I was about 79 kg at the beginning of the summer now I'm going to 90 kg. I'm really upset. I'll fully participate in the next challenge I'll try to lose it.
