    Female, age 61, 5'4.5"
    MFP SW 195 (Nov 2015) ~ presently MFP goal set for 0.5# loss per week
    GW #1 150
    GW #2 145 (normal BMI)

    07/07 = 156.0 post-vacation w/i net calories not. so. much. Oops.
    07/14 = 154.5 prelogging & sticking w/ plan helps
    07/21 = 154.5 walked in Packers 5K 44:50 ave pace 14:26 min/mile ~ beat goal < 45:00
    07/28 = 157.5 kinda crashin' & burnin' last few days ~ this too shall pass
    08/04 = 155.5 CICO works
    08/11 = 158.0 going backwards ~ however, Feast with the Beasts was totally worth it!
    08/18 = 157.5 saw 156.0 at least once during the week
    08/25 = 156.0
    09/01 = 154.5 followed by middle brother's wedding & long holiday weekend w/ no logging on MFP so we'll see
    09/08 = 157.5 deserved ~ office bday celebrations / walked in City Stadium 5K for Veterans in 44:27 & ave. pace 14:16
    09/15 = 156.0 eating out tonight w/ hubby, sister & BIL, then going to Packers game tomorrow ~ there will be adult beverages
    09/22 = 155.5 followed by belated anniversary dinner w/ hubby, including a shared dessert + no regrets!
    09/29 = 154.0
    10/06 = 155.0 maybe water retention in muscles b/c resumed home version of weights & circuit-training day before (crap weather & no dog walk before work)
    10/13 = 157.0 birthday treats & adult beverages / walked in Run for the Hill of It 5K in 48:13 pace 15:32 & hill 2:01 ~ beat both time (part unpaved trail with sloppy conditions due to 5" rain in preceding week) & hill (finish is UP a steep sledding hill) from last year ~ only 25 of 267 participants finished hill < 1 minute
    10/20 = 155.0
    10/27 = 158.0 oops ~ lots of leaf raking day before & too. much. snacking.
    11/03 = 156.5 better planning / stopped evening snacking (mostly)
    11/10 = 156.0 basically stuck in maintenance mode ~ not the worst thing
    11/17 = 157.0 staged holiday parade (w/ brunch & adult beverages) & raked leaves

    Female, age 61, 5'4.5"
    MFP SW 195 (Nov 2015) ~ presently MFP goal set for 0.5# loss per week
    GW #1 150
    GW #2 145 (normal BMI)

    07/07 = 156.0 post-vacation w/i net calories not. so. much. Oops.
    07/14 = 154.5 prelogging & sticking w/ plan helps
    07/21 = 154.5 walked in Packers 5K 44:50 ave pace 14:26 min/mile ~ beat goal < 45:00
    07/28 = 157.5 kinda crashin' & burnin' last few days ~ this too shall pass
    08/04 = 155.5 CICO works
    08/11 = 158.0 going backwards ~ however, Feast with the Beasts was totally worth it!
    08/18 = 157.5 saw 156.0 at least once during the week
    08/25 = 156.0
    09/01 = 154.5 followed by middle brother's wedding & long holiday weekend w/ no logging on MFP so we'll see
    09/08 = 157.5 deserved ~ office bday celebrations / walked in City Stadium 5K for Veterans in 44:27 & ave. pace 14:16
    09/15 = 156.0 eating out tonight w/ hubby, sister & BIL, then going to Packers game tomorrow ~ there will be adult beverages
    09/22 = 155.5 followed by belated anniversary dinner w/ hubby, including a shared dessert + no regrets!
    09/29 = 154.0
    10/06 = 155.0 maybe water retention in muscles b/c resumed home version of weights & circuit-training day before (crap weather & no dog walk before work)
    10/13 = 157.0 birthday treats & adult beverages / walked in Run for the Hill of It 5K in 48:13 pace 15:32 & hill 2:01 ~ beat both time (part unpaved trail with sloppy conditions due to 5" rain in preceding week) & hill (finish is UP a steep sledding hill) from last year ~ only 25 of 267 participants finished hill < 1 minute
    10/20 = 155.0
    10/27 = 158.0 oops ~ lots of leaf raking day before & too. much. snacking.
    11/03 = 156.5 better planning / stopped evening snacking (mostly)
    11/10 = 156.0 basically stuck in maintenance mode ~ not the worst thing
    11/17 = 157.0 staged holiday parade (w/ brunch & adult beverages) & raked leaves
    11/24 = 159.5 Thanksgiving week & paid time off with hubby ~ def going in wrong direction ~ oops

    At this point, as long as I maintain / stay 1-5-anything until New Year's, I'll be happy. And keeping up with dog walks and/or x-training at least 5x per week.

    Starting weight - 249.5 - March 2017
    Lowest weight - 202 - December 2017
    Goal weight 183 (planned maintenance range 180-186)

    6/29/18 - 208.5 - Making a fresh start for Onederland after Independence Day.
    7/6/18 - 209.5 - A little temporary gain from the holiday carb fest. Here we go!
    7/12/18 - 210.5 - Arrggghhhh! The bad news - the scale is going the wrong way. The good news - I'm getting my workouts in - lifting numbers are going up - I'm staying under my calorie target. Next week will be better.
    7/26/18 - 209 - slowly moving in the right direction. Lifting numbers still going up. Getting most of the workouts in. Logging all the food - looks like I should lower the calorie target just a bit.

    8/2/18 - 209 - turns out yesterday's whoosh was just a tease. DAMMIT! Oh, well - maintenance is good. Ate Tex-Mex in a restaurant last night. I probably should be pleased with a flat line. HAHA! :)
    8/9/18 - 207.5 - Great - some progress, finally. And I saw 206 again earlier in the week. Onward and downward!
    8/16/18 - 208 - AARRGGHH! - Getting frustrated here. I keep telling myself "Maintenance is good. You're not gaining. LIfting numbers are still going up." Regardless, I'd like to see some slow weight loss - just not this slow. HAHA! :D
    8/23/2018 - 205 - Holy whoosh, Batman! And I saw 204 earlier in the week. Finally some progress! YAY!
    8/30/2018 - 204.5 - I'll take it! Not my best week, program wise. I am happy to see a small loss. Onward and downward!

    9/6/2018 - 206.5 - Been skipping some workouts and walking and also eating more. No surprise that weight is up a bit after the holiday carbfest. I did see 203.5 on the scale last Sunday, so that was encouraging. Need to be more consistent on the workouts.
    9/20/2018 - 208.5 - Missed last week's weigh in. Up a bit today - eating too much some days, still. Need more discipline! Weights going up - so that's a positive.
    9/27/2018 - 205 - welcome to the roller coaster. Maintaining in the 204-210 range for several months now. I'm going to restrict calories for a few weeks to see if I can get a slow, steady loss going.

    10/4/2018 - 204 - YAY! Lowered my calorie target to 2000 per day. A bit of a struggle some days. Will try this for six weeks and see if I can get to Onederland.
    10/11/18 - 205 - and I saw 202 earlier in the week. I think I'm on the right track. The trend is slowly downward. It's hard to be patient, though.
    10/21/18 - 208.5 - that's what being away from home at meetings and restaurants and no logging will do. Was away and ubale to weigh in last Thursday. We shall see if the gain is temporary.

    11/1/18 - 210 - Had a great time on the river. Did not log most of the food and drink. Back at it now that Halloween is over.
    11/29/18 - 206 - Back to working out more and logging everything. I should be pleased with maintenance. Never satisfied, though. Will keep striving for Onederland.

    Mon 03 Dec 98 (-1.3 kgs / -2.9 lbs)

    Been travelling a lot for work over the last month and the change of routine + hotel food + less exercise has let back in some bad habits, but it hasn't been a complete blowout which is good.

    I am not going to hit my target of 90kg for Christmas, but am aiming for 96kg realistically allowing for birthdays etc between now and then!
