11/14 - 63.1 kg (139.1 lbs.). 7 km run in the morning. Has to do more today as we have a “special” heavy-loaded dinner tonight. Plan a 3 km walk during the lunch break and “six-pack in 6 weeks” before dinner. I wish success to everyone in this round.
11/15 - 63.0 kg (138.9 lbs.). Yesterday mission is completed. Did all my activities and the dinner (1,654 kcal) didn’t affect my weight at all. There is even 100g loss.
11/16 - 62.8 kg (138.5 lbs.). 7 km run in the morning. My body fat % now is below 20% (19.9%); for my age the lowest limit is 17.1%. Only short way to go!

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!

15/11 Did a half hearted weights session yesterday, not really on form this week, not sure if it's weather or continued after effects of a big weekend. Anyway today's goals are to stay on track calorie wise and get lower body weights' session in

16/11 Had to postpone weight training again, went to a friend's graduation after work, calories were around maintenance so all round not a great day for my goals. However, weight continues to come down, I got 15,000 steps in, Protein was on target and had a very good sleep so it's not all doom & gloom. Today's goal are simply to eat below maintenance and try and get out for a run.

11/15 - 213 Not really happy that it has gone up over the last few days but I did get all my water in!! The goal for today is to get all my calories and see if that helps.

Your weight will fluctuate sometimes up, sometimes down, try not to let your emotions get too tied to the day-to-day it's the trend over time that matters (try a trend app - Happy Scale for iOS/Libra for Android/Weightgrapher.com for web)

11/15 - 247.4..early morning weigh and not enough sleep. Still sticking to plan and did water aerobics again yesterday. I knew I would stall a bit this round after such a big loss last round.
11/16 - 247.2...was a good day. Did water aerobics and some walking around while shopping. Was under calories and had 100 oz of water. This is actually the lowest weight I've been since August 2013!! 😀

Round 59 GW 185

Day/Weight/Comment
11/14 187 - saw this challenge and figured I'd join in since the weight seems to be creeping back on.
11/15 185.1 - dinner out w/family last night will most likely show up on scale tomorrow though I did try to plan ahead knowing I would have a higher calorie meal when out.
11/16 185.1 - I did a little bit of mindless snacking yesterday so that will probably catch up to me in a day or so. Especially, since I worked from home yesterday and will again today and I have all the food in the next room easy to get up and grab it. Did try to put some lower calorie items in pantry for when the urge strikes.

'm sure that I'll get through this this time (what? It's Thanksgiving???) Oh well -- persistence!

5'3" 61 yr. old
HW: 152 (2 years ago)
LW: 121 (1.5 yrs ago)
CW: 128.8 this a.m. (was 129.7 last week the last time I posted in round 58 I think! -- so...progress....)
GW: I'd like to get back to the 120 range -- even 118! -- so -10 lbs. goal

It's those LAST TEN POUNDS! I was able to get down to 125 again a few weeks ago, then life took over -- birthday, traveling, etc. -- but it even those 4 pounds different felt GREAT! The feeling I get in my body when I lose is so MOTIVATING -- I love feeling thin and healthy. So, I keep trying. Good luck this round everyone!

11/15 - 128.8
11/16 - 128.8

Thanks for the shout-out @abowersgirl -- it IS exciting to be within 10 pounds of my ultimate goal. I'm still living my life though -- so it remains a goal! lol! This challenge helps a lot -- and as I always say, I LOVE reading everyone's posts and suggestions and just day to day stuff. We've all got stuff. <smile>

11/14 146.6 I'M BAAAAACCCK! I was worried about weighing myself this morning because LNS took over and I ate a couple of chocolate bars before bed, on top of that I had a rest day when it came to exercising (even though Sunday was my last rest day and I usually don't have one so close to the other) but I am so happy I am back to down to the weight I was at before the weekend destroyed me. I will be getting back at it today! Yesterday I was emailed my schedule for winter, beach volleyball and it starts on Tuesday...I am so excited but so nervous, haven't played since elementary school lol so needless to say it will be a lot different and I don't want to let anyone down in case I am not the best player. We will have to see.

11/15 145.6 worked out, drank a little over 1 liter of water and ate under Calories. So far so good, just planning to keep this going throughout the whole round this time Lol

11/16 146.4 I was feeling bloated yesterday but didn't think much of it because I recorded a loss but when I woke up this morning, still feeling bloated I decided to look at my cycle calender and realized my TOM is due today. No wonder I have been craving chocolate like a mad women (although having a piece here and there I am impressed with my own will power not to go over the edge) I also developed a new craving I have never had before; peanuts, cashews, almonds etc. Thank goodness I have some unsalted, raw ones to munch on. Although they are still high in calories and fat at least im not over killing my sodium but at the same time it did result in over eating my calories by about 100 but that's ok. I also worked out and drank over 1 liter of water. This fluctuation shouldn't last long

11/15 - 213

Not really happy that it has gone up over the last few days but I did get all my water in. The goal for today is to get all my calories and see if that helps.
11/16= 212.6 - Movement downward again. Still frustrated. I am eating healthy options and staying in my cal limit. Last night I got near the top of my target limit without adding processed or sugary items. Also got in my water target and workout for the day. I am just frustrated at making the right choices and seeing and upward tick this week.

NE Ohio

My 20th Round! I can guarantee that I would not have lost these last 28 pounds without this challenge. These next 10 days are going to include a birthday party and Thanksgiving with out of town relatives staying at my house, so I’m sure my ending weight will reflect that. However, this year I’m going to be prepared and enjoy this time with family, knowing I’ll be able to minimize the damage with the help of this challenge in the coming weeks.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/14 - 145.5 - Here's what I was hoping for yesterday. Hopefully, it will stick this time.
11/15 - 144.5 - I'm glad to see a downward trend before all the celebrating this weekend and next week. NSV - I'm wearing a pair of dress pants today that my husband bought me when we were dating in 2000. I grew out of them fairly quickly back then, but I loved them, so I kept them in the back of my closet. Funny thing is, they're a size 12. Most 12's fall off me now so I measured the waist size and it's 31.5 inches. It's crazy how how much sizing has changed in women's clothes.
11/16 - 144.5 - I'm so happy this stuck before the birthday party I'm throwing tomorrow.
