JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 62
Replies
-
Male, 39
6'0"
Goal: Get BF% to 10-12%, then bulk.
Round 57: +2.6 (15.1%)
Round 58: -1.8 (15.1%)
Round 59: -1.8 (14.1%)
Round 60: -7.0 (12.1%)
Round 61: +8.4 (14.1%)
Round 62 Starting Weight: 187.0 (Huge gain last day of Rd. 61 due to sodium, so it will probably skew the results)
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 182.4- As expected, dropped a bunch of the water weight from the high sodium day at the end of Round 61. Had a really good day. Got 2 workouts in yesterday (lifting workout with deadlifts, lat pull downs, overhead press, bicep curls and pec flys, then backed that up with 3 miles on the treadmill), as well as hitting my macros and calories. Drank about 140 oz. of water. Squat day today.
12/15 - 181.2 - Solid deficit with a lift and a good run in for workout.
12/16 - 181.8 - Got a good HIIT workout and abs in yesterday. Ate at a solid deficit and felt good throughout the day.
12/17 - 182.2 - Ate out all day and had a Italian family dinner that could have derailed me, but had a solid day food wise still. Rest day as far as workouts. Weight is starting to settle in and now will work from here to continue to cut body fat.
12/18 - 181.6 - Good solid day yesterday. Made really good food choices, hit my macros and had a nice deficit. Crushed my workout (Deadlifts, etc.). Finished off the workout with a little mile run for some calorie burn. The creatine really seems to be helping my workouts.
12/19 - 181.0 - Hit my macros and calories again. Getting into a really good groove as far as consistency and it seems to be paying off. Did an ab workout at home and then went and played 2+ hours of full court basketball for my cardio. Squat day today.

ROUND 62 (Round 9 for me)
5’5” 66 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
GW 135-140 lb.
Started Keto WOE on September 24th (2018). Still experiencing decreased arthritis hip and shoulder pain since the second week of Keto. Staying within calorie limits is easy enough, but not exceeding my carb limit is difficult. Per my KetoMojo meter, I’m in ketosis most of the time. Some of my NSVs: my wedding band fits, I wear smaller clothing, and my progress has encouraged my husband to try harder to end his cigarette habit.
Rounds 54 – 61 resulted in a cumulative loss of 24 lb.!
This post documents my last weight loss before I let a careless injury derail me: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/701476/joined-mfp-one-year-ago-today-frumpy-to-fit/p1
This is what I’m going for, second time around.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 151.6 Starting with a loss—I like that. Until now, I haven’t established a round goal, but, this time, my goal is to get below 150 and never exceed that number again. I changed my final goal weight to a range. In that range, I'll be able to wear my size 6 slacks/jeans again, without looking too skinny. In my younger days, prior to the early 1990's and rampant vanity sizing, a regular size 10 was equivalent to today's size 6. I read that Marilyn Monroe was a size 14, which would probably make her about a size 10 in today's sizing. Of course, I've noticed, in general, that the more expensive the clothing, the more generous the sizing. (My only expensive clothing is used. ) Whatever, my goal is getting closer, and I'm excited!
12/15 151.6 I was a little over on calories yesterday, so I’m happy not to see a gain. Today, I’ll try to get in a short walk. The knee is only a little sore now. I’ll find my knee sleeve before I go and keep the walk short. I must be patient and let it heal. Confession: I use my own success post from 2012, linked above, to encourage myself.
12/16 151.6 I think this number will go down tomorrow; we’ll see. Thor and I walked 3 miles yesterday, and it was a beautiful day. I wore my knee sleeve and iced my knee afterward. It feels almost normal today. Thor tried to pull me up a hill so he could chase a deer that ran across the road. I suppose I should be grateful for his assistance. I started the walk singing “Thank You, Lord, for saving my soul” and added a lot of made up verses thanking God for food and shelter, sunshine and rain, family and friends, and on and on. When I ran out of verses, I sang Christmas Carols. Having plenty of breath to sing is one upside of walking slow. 😊
12/17 151.4 Not much of a drop, but better than a gain. Thor and I walked 4 miles today, and I had very slight knee pain and no toe pain. I ordered custom orthotics from the orthopedist today and got a fresh foot wrap to keep me going until it’s ready for me. Today, three people told me to forget about running again, including my husband. The doctor put in his notes that I’m a trouble-maker. Perhaps I should consider their advice, but it would be a shame not to wear out my new running shoes! 🤔
12/18 150.8 I expected a lower number, until I tried my wedding band before getting on the scale. My fingers are swollen again. Today, I must spend most of my time in front of the computer completing tests I need to pass before tax season begins. I’d rather be outside enjoying the sunshine, but I’m thankful for extra income, especially since, last night, I signed up for a cruise in April to celebrate my husband’s birthday and the end of tax season. I see I have five more days to lose another pound and get below 150. I will press on!
12/19 150.4 My hope for seeing the 140’s by the end of the round is still alive. I have more computer work, but hope to be done by 3 pm so Thor and I can take a walk. I’m going to have to break down and do some cookie baking, too. I have to take snacks to the nursing home this weekend. I’m also going to try some keto-friendly cookies and pecan pie. I hope the pie is good, because I don’t want to waste pecans.
I was sure I posted this a half hour ago, but I can't find it, so I'm trying again.

This is my ninth round. I am thinking this is the perfect way to move through December, with mini-goals, support and comraderie. I would love to be at 155 by Christmas but will be happy just being solidly in the 150s! Let's make this a month of mindful celebrations taking time to appreciate our loved ones, our health, and our progress on this journey!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 -- 160.5 -- Mildly frustrated with this. Ate super well yesterday with huge deficit. Ran 3/4 of my 4 mile "walk". Possibly fluid retention from lots of exercise yesterday, but hoping to see this number down tomorrow! Could also be fluid retention from late night scotch after a stressful day!
12/15 -- 159.5 -- Still looking fro the 158.5 I had for many days last week. Today I went to zumba and then baked 800 cookies and made dough for another 400. The goal is 3600 cookies by Monday! I only ate two...so that wasn't too bad!
12/16 -- 158.5 -- Good considering yesterday's cookie extravaganza. We baked another 1600 today, so we are on track to finish tomorrow with another 1200. Ate a few today...not too many, but the oatmeal cookie dough is so good! I also ate a slice of pizza, as that is our traditional tree decorating dinner. Then I switched to salad and leftover pork tenderloin. I was within calories for the day, although higher carb than usual. Hope everyone had a happy day!
12/17 -- 159 -- Not to bad in the midst of cookie baking! I weighed, but missed posting yesterday.
12/18 -- 158 -- Really happy to see this number this morning! The cookie baking is done. 4000+ cookies in 3 days. 120 boxes packed up and ready to deliver, and about 50 left of each of 9 different kinds to bring to Christmas with family. (Really, it's ok! There are thirteen of us and the eaters include 5 teenage boys!) Mostly normal eating from now until December 23!
12/19 -- 156.5 Whoo Hoo! Now in reality I'll probably bounce up and down around this number for a while before
dropping again. Trying to get used to the weirdness of the scale! I'm excited, too, that all the cookies are delievered. 2 hours of driving the kids around town as my delivery boys. I can't deliver them myself, because 30 short conversations would take me several days to make the trip!!

23nd Round for me: Female 65, height – 5’
Here we are again. Looked over all my rounds and realized that I’ve only lost around 3 lb. total. 😖 I’d lost about 4 lb. on MFP before joining this challenge. I feel like I’ve lost around 10 – which I have. I also gained 7. Have to be less complacent about it. New maxim: each round counts.Round 39 (1st for me) – SW 163, loss -.2Round 62 – 160.2 Goal this round: under 159, I think this is doable and I need to challenge myself more.

Round 61 – 160.8, -.6
I’m going to apply to go on a short course in April. That is 12-15 weeks away (about 10 rounds). So my more immediate goal is to lose 1 lb/round. The course is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time – I don’t have to lose weight for it but it would be sweet if I did.
Ultimate Goal Weight – 128; Hoping to be under 140 by end of June.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 – 161.2 – Not sure why I’m up as yesterday was quite good. If I hang in there I think it won’t last. I haven’t gotten to the gym this week though because of this cold, so maybe it’s that and drinking a lot (to keep the coughing under control)
12/15 – 161.2 – Finished supper a little late but resisted the LNS and kept very close to calories.
12/16 – 161.6 – Another good day yesterday, was feeling much better
so even did the vacuuming and mopped the floor. Eventually it must go down.
12/17 – 160.2 – Up to maintenance calories yesterday but payoff from the days before. Back to the gym this morning, yay!
12/18 – 160.2 – Decent day yesterday and was great to get back to the gym. A little sore afterwards but so much more energy today.
12/19 – 160.6 – Was hoping for a move down today but eventually it must come. Motivation to go to the gym.

During December I just want to make it out of the month alive and without too much damage. I have slowly inched myself into the 180’s. I want to get back into the 170’s and maintain (at the very minimum). I want to increase my exercising now that my livingroom renovation is complete. I want to get all my steps in and incorporate more & more of the great ideas you all have shared. My personal goals are the greatest presents that I can give to myself during this most Holy month of celebrations. This is my way of saying Merry Christmas to me. Your ideas and comments are the greatest presents that I could ever receive from all of you. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to us all!

@quiltingjaine I know, I am naturally not a thirsty person so I have trouble during hot weather, let alone cold weather...but I am more aware now then ever what my lack of drinking water is doing to me. I don't drink juice or pop so I am not drinking my calories (although I do drink coffee) but I do notice when I don't get enough water in, i feel starved..and I am aware that most hunger feelings are due to actually being thirsty, i have also noticed my feet cramp up a lot and I have heard that a lot of people who assume they suffer from arthritis actually are not drinking enough water, which causes cramping to fingers and toes (like if you were to freeze, the first sacrificed limbs are fingers and toes..sort of the same idea). Obviously not everyone who suffers from arthritis, is suffering because of lack of sufficient water intake but like I said, apparently if you don't drink enough water similar symptoms might occur.
@kmfeig87 I am so impressed and in awe of your current loss...especially after the baking you have been doing the past couple of days. Excellent job!!! I don't think i would be as strong!! If you were able to survive those temptations, this weight loss journey has nothing on you..you are doing fantastic. Lol I am the same though, I tend to send someone else who is less likely to have conversations deliver goods and presents or else I would be in the same boat as you. I love staying for a chat but with a list long, it isn't manageable under time constraints.7 -

Feeling a little discouraged here because I'm not sure what's going on. I'm looking at what I've been eating and my weight should be dropping, but it's bouncing like crazy. I'm just going to keep on keeping on and hope the scale will show the truth soon.
I have a few questions on Keto if someone has the inclination to answer them.12 -

I want this round to be the start of building consistency and habit in eating mindfully. Maybe throw in a little exercise. And if I can lose 1-2 pounds, that would be even better.
12/14 -147.5; I shouldn't be surprised by this because yesterday was full of salt and carbs. There's a part of me that keeps hoping that those delicious things won't have an impact, but they do. Today will be better.
12/15 -Traveling and no scale...I tried to be a little bit good, but had a too much fun at a holiday party.
12/16 -Traveling and no scale...I also had Taco Bell so I'm sure that wasn't the best idea.
12/17 -147.4; Down .1 pounds from my starting weight. Given that I didn't put as much effort as I should have, I'll take that as a positive. I'm back on my normal daily schedule now and back to intermittent fasting. I'm looking forward to some time off from work in the next few days so I can start easing myself back into a routine for working out and meal prep.

12/14 146.5 ~ (Steps 23,296) ~ Today I was about able to get a fabulous swimming session in plus make smart food choices. Yesterday a 1/2 hour before my Body Works class was scheduled, it got canceled AGAIN. So aggravating when you plan to go and they can’t get a reliable instructor,
BTW, I would loveeee to be at least in the low 140’s by the end of the year. Focus focus focus.
12/15 144.2 ~ (Steps 23,187) ~ Extremely successful day, I went to a different location, my gym has at least 30 different locations so it was kind of cool checking out a different one. Plus I finally finished Christmas decorating,. My goal too is to be as close to 140 as possible. If I could figure out NOT to snack at night NOT so much, it would of happen long time ago,
12/16 145.3 ~ (Steps 16,757) ~ I don’t understand
. We had a marvelous lunch, trying a new restaurant but I was wayyyyy under in my calories for the day,
12/17 144.2 ~ (Steps 18,508) ~ Yesterday was a relaxing day, hubby made his favorite cookies (sugar cookies w/ kisses). I did ONLY have one. That’s a win in my book,

Starting Weight 175-178
Current Weight 150.4 end of round 60
Goal Weight 140
Back again! I am honestly just going to try and maintain this round. If I lose an ounce I will be thrilled! We have my DH work Christmas party, my work party, a cookie and candy making family party, and this one ends on a Sunday. Plus we have family coming in Christmas weekend and they are staying with us. The next couple of weeks are going to be rough! I was really hoping to hit the 30 pound mark by the end of the year. I'm close, but don't think it is realistic that I will lose another 2 or 3 pounds by then. I'm happy with what I have done though this year, so I will take it! Good luck everyone!
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 151.1 back up a little from yesterday. I was under calories, but I did have a peach turnover at 9:00 and dinner at 8:30. Both my daughters 10 and 16 had choir performances at 2 different schools last night. So my husband and I had to juggle seeing both of them and getting dinner done for the other kids. I didn't want to eat out, but I ended up eating really late when we got home. Hopefully I can bring it back down, but I have my DH work Christmas party tonight and then candy and cookie baking with the fam tomorrow. So we will see what happens. All I know is this is a once a year thing, so I will try and make smart decisions, but I am going to enjoy it and have fun! Seeing that 149.xxx would be really nice this round though!
12/15 - 150.4 DH Christmas party was a success. We walked away with $150 playing bingo and I ate well. Saved most of my calories for dinner and ate what I wanted without worry. Stayed away from the desserts and even had a beer. Had a great time and stayed on my path. I also got back into a pair of black really tight pants size 6 that I had not worn in many years. So another win. Family cookie and candy baking today. Oldest son is home from school and is helping out. So always good to have him home. 1 event down, 4 to go!
12/16 - 153.0 uuughhh. Totally deserved! Stayed away from the cookies and candy but the chips and dip got me. Who gains 3 pounds over night like that. Oh well it will be off in a couple of days. My family was driving me crazy and all bickering, so it was kind of stressful instead of fun. You know when you get to many women together with all their kids it gets crazy. My sister in law and I aren’t on great terms anyways, so I ate salt and lots of it. Lol, water and relaxing today. We will see what today brings.
12/17 - 154.1 Lots of water to flush all the sodium out and get back on track today. My husband and I are playing hookie today and going to a movie since the kids are all in school. Back to work tomorrow and hopefully by Friday I’ll be back down.
12/18 - 154.1 Did a little better yesterday I guess. Not enough water and still not great food choices, but went to see a movie and had a great time just hanging out with my DH. Back at work today. So salad for lunch and tons of water. We have family stopping through town for dinner tonight, so hopefully we can agree on a half way decent dinner out.
12/19 - 154.1 I have no idea what is going on. I did go out to dinner last night, but it was not late and I had tons of water through out the day. Was at calorie max I am sure. I did have a couple of fried things off the appetizer platter, but nothing crazy. We will see what happens the rest of the week. It's funny because even though I know it's not possible I am starting to freak out every time I get on the scale thinking I'm going to all the sudden be back in the 160's or 170's. I knew this month was going to be hard. We just have way to much going on and so many different parties and events. All of the holiday shopping and present buying. Plus the kids are all super busy with end of the semester projects, finals, and plays. Then on top of everything work is stressful, I'm the accountant and I'm trying to get the books closed for the year. uuuggghhh.

12/14 184.3, Ready to start this 10 day journey. Lost a pound waiting for it to start.
12/15 184.3, Big calorie blow out last night, but planned for it during the day. Went a little over but ready to get back on track
12/16 187.3, The blowout shows up on the scale. Sigh.
12/17 185.4, swam and steps yesterday but didn’t count calories
12/18 184.7, lots of steps, stayed in calories. Lesson learned, big cheat weekends take an entire week to recover. Just not worth it.
12/19 184.7 Still plugging away. At least it isn’t a gain!

@jenn99205, during the holidays MAINTAINING is a win in my books! Your daughters 10 and 16 both in choir at two different schools sounds exhausting but extremely fun, enjoy. I miss those times, my baby (son) is 30 and daughter is 34 so been there done that, soccer and cross country for me.

Hopping in on this round too!
female, 39, 5'5"
Original Start Weight: 167.5 (April 2018)
Ultimate Goal Weight: 135 (or thereabouts)
Current Weight: 150.6
Round goals:
-Maintain weight (my mom is in the hospital following surgery for a brain bleed so I foresee a bit of a relaxed focus on tracking calories on my part. She did well during the procedure, but will be in the hospital for 2-3 weeks.)
-Squeeze in 20 minutes of exercise at least 4 times (I've been very lax about this, so I need to ease back in)
-Take time to enjoy the holiday season...bonus points for non-food ways.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 150.0 (-.6 from yesterday, -.6 from round start)
12/15 - 150.0 (0.0 from yesterday, -.6 from round start. I'm bracing myself for the number likely on the scale tomorrow, after eating both lunch and supper out. Though I did get a 40 minute walk in, and am getting better about not making myself eat all that's served in a restaurant meal. )
12/16 - 151.0 (+1.0 from yesterday, +.4 from round start. Rather figured that was coming, likely from sodium from yesterday's food. I did get to visit my mom yesterday too. She's doing as well as could be expected, though she's a bit bummed that she'll likely be in hospital for the holidays. I reminded her that we could either bring it to her, or we can just do holidays with her when she's out. Planning on knocking out some more light exercise today, and getting serious about that whole "drink more water" thing.)
12/17 - 151.0 (0.0 from yesterday, +.4 from round start. Fingers crossed for a down swing tomorrow. No room to exercise but I was at least generally on my feet more than normal today.)
12/18 - 151.0 (0.0 from yesterday, +.4 from round start. Apparently this is the new it weight.)
12/19 - Forgot to weigh. Am determined to get some exercise in this afternoon/evening. Probably just a walk or trip on the elliptical (depends on how compliant my kidlets are as to whether I'll get to walk or have to elliptical after bedtime.)

Day/Weight/Comment
12/14 - 174 - food has not been the best today due to having a broken oven, but I have tried to be mindful of portion sizes. No exercise today but will try and make up for it in the morning.
12/15 - 174.4 - food has been pretty good and went for a swim this morning, so hopefully that will counter the. 4 increase
12/16 - 173.7 - not much movement today but happy with food
12/17 - 172.5 - good food day today and moved by chasing my baby round the house. Water was by good today and that's always my downfall so happy with today!
12/18 - 171.1 - so close to my mini goal of 170 by 27th (baby weight). Water wasn't great today. Food could have been better/worse but under my calories and walked 10k+ steps.let's see what the scales say tomorrow!
12/19 - 171.1 - happy to have maintained, makes me believe it's not necessarily a, fluck. food was under calories but could have been better choices; the joys of a Christmas fridge. Had a swim tonight which was nice. Hoping to push the numbers to my first big goal of 170.
Happy Wednesday everyone! Initially wrote Tuesday, thankfully it's bedtime over here!

Date/Weight/Comment
12/14 -216.4 I think some of the water retention from working out this week is now gone.
12/15 -215.8 Weird night last night. Wind storm in the area and power went out at about 6:30pm and didn't get back on until 12:30am. Ended up going to bed early and in turn woke up extra early. Plan is to take dog out for 3 mile walk today during a break in the storm. Going out for lunch and going to the symphony later today. Goal is to get water in today.
12/16 -216.4 Water weight from lunch yesterday. I tried to make sure that I didn't eat anything that I shouldn't, but I wasn't going to worry too much if there was some ingredient in my meal that is on my do not eat list. Went to the gym today and did some weightlifting. Today I am relaxing, watching football, and making sure I work on getting my water in.
12/17 -216.9 Feeling heavy today. I ate a lot more calories than usual yesterday. I ate a whole avocado yesterday, something I never do, and even though I know avocados have a lot of calories, it wasn't until I was reviewing my diary yesterday evening did I realize the % of my daily calories that went to that avocado. It was a lot, but it tasted so good. Lesson learned, everything in moderation. This morning I was looking at my comments and noticed that over the weekend I was working on getting my water in, something that I attempt to work on every weekend and something that doesn't happen. This morning I realized that who cares if I don't get my water in over the weekend. I want to live an 80/20 life and not worry about things that for me right now aren't that important. So, while I don't get all the water I should be getting in during the weekend, I still get more than enough water during the week. Right now I'm focusing on exercising, consistent logging, eating at a slight deficit, and following my elimination diet. Whether I get enough water in on the weekends or not who cares!
12/18 -216.7 Plan was to take dog out for a 3 mile walk last night, but the wind combined with the rain kept me from doing much of a walk. Very proud that I went to the gym this morning even though I woke up at 2 in the morning and couldn't get back to sleep until 3. My husband has done a lot of Christmas baking, luckily I'm still on my elimination diet, so I haven't been tempted to eat his treats. Of course I'm snacking on other foods, but that's besides the point.
12/19 -216.4 Up and down and up and down; however, I have weighed in every day lower than my average weight last round. Yoga tonight

Hi My Friends - Returning & New! Have a wonderful Round!
12/14 154.6
12/15 154.8
12/16 155.8
12/17 155.0 Away for the weekend, tracked all, & remained under calories burned. Ate slowly & kept walking. Pleased❣Feels like I’m getting the hang of this.
I decided I REALLY wanted to get to 150. I’m curious what I will look like. This is what’s keeping me going atm.
12/18 153.4 My New Lowest Weight!
BMI of 23.0 ❣
Wasn’t hungry, so for the first time, I listened to it, rather than forcing myself to eat. Ate ~1400 calories. Burned ~ 2400 calories with YouTube Zumba & Lisa Sansone videos [First time for both] & a 40 minute walk after dinner with DH + 2 hours of Physical Therapy exercises (not counted).
12/19 153.4again!! Trend wt hit 154.0 for first time!!
However I have had two chocolate squares & 5 cookies (all carefully tracked) today. I’m under calories, but it’s not been very nutritious.
Question: should I throw out the cookies that 2 friends brought me? Or give them to teen boys across the street?
3.4 of 78.3 pounds to go! 😀
95.7% there!
Note to self: your original goal in 3 years was 169, then 155, so don’t feel bad that you’re not 150 by Jan 1. You’ve got this. Keep with the easy, tiny goals!12 -

If the boys aren't overweight, maybe give them up. Cookies are easy to come by--if it ends up to be a mistake....They will most likely be happy to eat them....6 -

Hi everybody. I wasn't here for many challenges, I'm trying to come back. I gained so much weight, I afraid to weigh myself. But I'll start to see a dietitian on Monday (12/17), so I'll add my weight on 12/17. Until Monday, I'll add my comments for each day.
12/14
I overate today, I took so much sugar and carb. Every day I feel like I have to eat sugar/junk food, I really addicted. Not a good day, but at least I walked 8200 steps with my heavy backpack.
12/15
12/16
12/17 87.5 kg (192.9 lbs)
This is the first time I weighed myself after many weeks. I wished that I would be less than 88 kg, so I didn't feel so bad, I was ready for that. I went dietitian this morning and we talked a lot and made a diet plan. I feel motivated, we made a goal which is I'll be 79.9 kg (176.1 lbs) after 2 months. In this challenge, I want to end up with 86.5 kg (190.6 lbs). According to my body analysis (with Tanita) I already have water retention, so I think I can lose 1 kg.
12/18 88 kg (194 lbs)
OK. I wasn't expecting this. But this was the first time I drank 2.1 liters of water in a day, maybe it's about that. My dietitian said that I need to drink 3 liters of waters, but it's really hard for me. Whatever, yesterday was the first day of my new diet and it was good. I didn't feel hungry until night. I'm still highly motivated.
12/19 88 kg (194 lbs)
I'm still optimistic, this is before bathroom weight. I believe I'll see a better number tomorrow. Yesterday was good, I didn't eat exactly according to diet, I did little changes. However, I took enough calories.
12/20 87.4 kg (192.6 lbs)
Yes! Yesterday breakfast wasn't good actually, I couldn't find proper thing to eat and took extra calories, however I tried to balance it through the day and finished the day under my calorie limit. When I'm home it's easy to diet but I need to learn to find solutions when I'm out. This is my 4th day of the new diet, cannot wait to weigh with Tanita at dietitian. I feel like I'm losing fat (I know too soon to say, I'm over-optimistic) (smiling poop emoji is here)

14/12 Yesterday was about maintenance intake wise, ate out for dinner unexpectedly. Not a big deal, been under my calories a fair bit during the week. It's out Christmas Jumper day for charity at work with a buffet, tonight is our Christmas lights row and party with my rowing club so it's pretty much a write off in term of calories today, I'll be mindful but not going to worry as I am going sober for charity from Monday so this is my last hurrah!
17/12 Been relatively good over the weekend, a lot of alcohol but calories around my deficit. Weight continues to come off. Goals for today are to do some yoga.
18/12 Not much to say about yesterday had a bit of a bingey evening, probs a tiny tad over maintenance so nothing devestating and expect to see the post-drink water weight hang on a day or two longer.[/b]
19/12 Plodding along, this week will be challenging, Christmas Party tonight
20/12 I have the pre-shark week carb cravings going on so the box of Celebrations at work will probably get me today. Other than that had a reasonable calorie intake yesterday considering I had a 3 course meal for Christmas Party.11 -
