2/22 145.7 last round was tough for me, even though the ending numbers are fine. I struggled through a small bounce and a few days of no scale movement. And spent a lot of time trying to keep myself on track with my eating choices, which haven't always been great. I was tempted to forget logging. The visuals of the long term weight loss trends that people post in the forums with all their peaks and valleys on the way to goal weight really help keep me going. Yesterday was a great day. I earned my promotion to blue belt in jiu-jitsu! The scale showed me a new number today. All good things!

2/24 145.6
2/25 145.1
2/26 143.9 A small woosh. Not sure form where and I'm sure it will bounce up a bit tomorrow. No matter. I worked out this morning and took a long shower. Feeling pretty good today. Jiu-jitsu this evening, and I need to figure out dinner.
2/27 143.5 No bounce! I had two hard workouts yesterday and my chest muscles are screaming.

Hi-I’m Karen
Sept. 2018 OSW 187 (My Round #1)
UGW 135.....yes, 135!
2/22-166-I leave my dad today, after taking care of him and his new knee. After the weekend, will go to where my husband and I are going to live. I look forward to living with my husband and getting to walk up and down the long paved driveway there, where we will be living (waiting for the house to be built).
2/23-166-Yesterday before I left my dad’s house, I rode 20 last miles on his bike. My legs were sore the rest of the day and that felt good. Today we will go help set up and work at a fundraiser that will have heavy food, lots of drinks and it will be a late night.
2/24-169-Heavy food and a late night. I need to drink lots of water and no alcohol. Hopefully I can get a walk in later. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everybody!!!
2/25-169-That’s OK after long hours and n the car and quick heavy dinner. We made it to our new temporary housing while our house is being built. It is great because there is a long paved driveway and I can walk the dogs every day.😊
2/26 -164-yipee! Signs of the weekend are finally gone. I walked 4 miles fast yesterday, and logged my food & drank water.
2/27-167-Walked 5 miles; the dogs love it! Heavy lunch & too many chips and dip before dinner. Once the weather gets better, I can walk 30 min. after dinner and that really helps. I need to get sewing today; I’m falling behind!😳
I am glad all of you are here! I love reading all of your posts while I drink my coffee in the morning. ☕️🌷11 -
Age: 34/5'5, CW: 227.4, HW: 280, GW: 145ish
Day/Weight/Comment
02/22: 227.8: 14,347 steps, started couch to 5k again (last time I hurt myself and couldn't keep up the running). Got in running/walking time, some weights, jacuzzi/pool time, went out for dinner and walk around town even though there is still ice and snow on the ground!
02/23: 227.8: 4,682 steps, I had to work the dayshift and I was unable to get to the gym before it closed. But watched my calories and made sure not to overeat while at work, which is an amazing feat in of itself.
02/24: 224.4: Steps are still counting for the day but they are going to be low. My hip has been out again and causing tremendous pain down my leg. I am going to make it tomorrow no matter what and try and walk it out. I was happy with my loss. Getting back into the grove of my diet always shows tremendous gains (or losses!). I just have to be mindful while eating at ork and not overeat.
02/25: 227.1: I knew there was going to be a gain. With no gym and barely any moving around yesterday I just couldn't see how sitting around and eating would help. I am off to do shopping and the gym before heading to work, so hopefully back on losing weight train. I think I overate at dinner and at too much salad and chicken, who knew but I didn't stop when I was full. I need to be more aware of that, especially at work.
02/26: 222.7: 10,478 steps, I actually did Wk1/D2 of the C25k program and I did it outside, it was the first time I have run outside since I was a teenager. I was quite mindful of what I was eating and to stop when I was full and I didn't eat after 8pm while sitting at work, which is a huge hurdle for me. It is difficult to be at work until midnight and not pick at something for several hours. I am feeling good about the loss, but always confused about the large decreases, but as long as I am trending down!
02/27: 221.3: 5,473 steps, I tried my best to be good eating yesterday. I stayed under my calories and split lunch with my boyfriend (spicy and sour soup and cashew chicken without rice). It is so much easier having someone with me who is also following a similar "diet." I wasn't able to make it to the gym or otherwise and today I finally have an appointment with an orthopedic doctor to look at my hip and back after being in pain for a year. I guess it is time to take care of it!

I'm stoked to keep this momentum going and participate in another round.
HW (age 14) - 175 lb
SW Jan 2015 - 165 lb
SW Jan 2019 - 147.5 lb
GW - 135 lb
R67 EW = 141 lb; ∆ = -2.2 lb
R68 EW = 138.2 lb; ∆ = -2.8 lb
Goals
Track everything and weigh to the gram.
Walk or jog 8,000 steps per day
Jog 5X in 10 days
Jog/Walk a 5k at least one of those times.
Finish yoga with Adriene 30 day journey on 2/26. Start new yoga journey (???)
Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 138.2 lb. Nothing lost nothing gained. I'm happy 😊
02/23 137.6 lb. I am loving this new life I'm building. I have been so sore since starting to incorporate jogging but I still keep my body moving. Yesterday I did the 5K in 43 minutes and although that is pretty slow for 3.1 miles (I did a lot of walking), I can only go up from here! My friend and I are going to sign up for a timed 5K in a couple months and I'm also thinking of doing Bay to Breakers! 🌉 We'll see!
02/24 136.6 lbs. Yesterday was kind of crazy, I was out of the house all day and I knew I had dinner plans with my family so I decided to save up most of my calories for that. But what I ended up doing was compensating with lots of cafinated drinks and I didn't drink much water. At the end of the day I think I didn't eat enough and the caffiene's diuretic effects have led me to lose a lot of water weight. So I'll probably be back up tomorrow once I replenish my fluids.
02/25 137.2 lbs. Now this is a much more realistic number to reflect my diet and exercise over the weekend. 👍
02/26 135.4 lbs. Feeling terrible. I got poison oak from my hike last week and I'm sick with a cold. I haven't been eating enough or drinking enough. Been going to sleep early because the benedryl makes me so sleepy and the itching is unbearable without it. I'm not pleased with this loss because I know I'm not taking care of myself. I am going to buy some homemade chicken noodle soup today from the Nugget. I hope that helps.
02/27 136.4 lbs. I finished my 30 days of yoga journey and that has me feeling proud. I did much better with food yesterday. I ate Cuties throughout the day to get extra vitamin C. And I made sure to drink 64 oz of water. But I'm still struggling because with being sick and itchy and it being rainy and windy I'm not doing any other physical activity besides the yoga. Today is my day off so I'm gonna go get a manicure and some fresh juice at Jamba. I don't know what else to do with myself today besides that, and it has me feeling low.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 - 156.3, went to a basketball game yesterday night and had a couple of beers so preparing myself for a uptick tomorrow. Was worth it though since had a great time and we won!!
10,232 steps, 35 minutes of exercise, 68 oz of water
02/23 - 156.1, busy day today with a volunteer shift from 9-1, brunch (not a great menu for a diet but they have a la carte eggs and fruit salad), gym/shower after, and then a club dinner at 5 so won’t be back home until after 8pm.
12,282 steps, 60 minutes of exercise, 64 oz of water
02/24 - 156.4, had brunch out today (2 egg white scrambled, piece of rye toast, and breakfast potatoes) so hoping I stay under 156.5 tomorrow. Diet will be back to normal tomorrow since weekends I tend to eat out more. Really going to try for 155 on 3/01, but started February 160.4 so 5.4 lbs is a bit ambitious for only 28 days so won’t kick myself too much if don’t get there.
Phone ran out of battery at 2pm with 6850 steps but walked a lot after. Charging Fitbit today since I have to get used to wearing it even if I don’t think it’s attractive— no time for egos., 60 minutes of exercise, 64 oz of water
02/25 - 156.3, back to where I was at the start of the round and pretty happy with that since ate out 3 out of the past 4 days and even if you think you’re ordering correctly it’s hard to know how much oil or salt was used.
10,345 steps, 55 minutes on elliptical, 70 oz of water
02/26 - 156.1, going in the right direction. It’s raining hard here today so hoping to get steps in. Not sure if will be able to if wind picks up.
12,672 steps, 95 minutes on elipitcal, 60 oz of water
02/27 - 156.2, this is a very stable round so far, but I know that weight loss is in my future. I also am seeing what foods fill me up more. I love cereal but it’s not doing it’s job compared to oatmeal haha

I walked 34 minutes outdoors & danced 22 minutes. Sample song “ Here comes my girl” by Tom Petty. That one put me in a great mood because of the nice vibe. Good luck on this round everyone!
02/23 …..189.0 ….. Here goes my embarrassing stats: 2653 Calories In / 2248 Calories out. 198 Net Carbs (the little Debbies are so much worse than the Oreos!). 10,183 Total Steps & 4.32 Miles. No IF yesterday. I slept 4 hours & 12 minutes & suffered severe Restless Leg Syndrome all night from the sugar. I very briskly walked for 17 minutes but did not dance yesterday.
02/24 ….. 189.0 ….. I am trusting the process here. Good day yesterday. 1111 Calories in / 2369 Calories Out. 14 Net Carbs. 13,161 Total Steps & 5.57 Total Miles. IF 17:7. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I charged my fitbit overnight, but got over 5 hours of sleep. I danced for 41 minutes, Sample Song “The Wanderer” by Dion. Tons of work today. I will get my steps in no problem. Have a great day everyone!
02/25 …..188.6 ….. Slowly melting pound. But every little bit counts, right?

I slept 6 hours & 13 min which was phenomenal! I took a very brisk & fast outdoor 10 minute walk & I danced for 40 minutes. Sample song “ Another one bites the dust” by Queen in honor of their Oscar performance where they sang “We are the Champions.” I enjoyed my evening watching the Academy Awards & especially liked seeing Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper perform “Shallow”. I agree with the critics that it was very “intimate”. But the nature of the movie & how it ended – just to be together again, I get it. Anyway, have a great week everyone.
02/26 ….. 188.0….. A very nice strong day again yesterday but no exercise. I worked late & then in-home movie night with my friend & son. Popcorn & hot cocoa for them.

Bad weather today so a long-distance doctor appointment was cancelled. However, tomorrow is an out-of-town to shop for a baby shower on Saturday. Watched a movie with my son. He had a small nachos & some Hershey’s special dark chocolate for a snack. I had Vanilla chai Tea with a hint of Stevia. I was proud of myself today!
02/28 ….. …..
03/01 ….. ….. Travel no weigh.
03/02 ….. …..
03/03 ….. ….. Baby Shower with food festivities. Uggg. Tomorrows start weight will not likely be pretty as Donna is her own worst enemy!

I’ve been bopping around in the low 160’s for months. Last round I worked on getting my head in a different space as far as eating (trying to look at portions as I would have in my 20’s – i.e. much smaller is plenty) and upping my exercise. My gym exercise is about the same but I’m trying to not allow myself to just sit doing crafts, computer or reading without breaking it up with some movement.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 – 161.8 -
02/23 – 162 – Good day yesterday for sticking with financial stuff that had to get done but ended up not moving as much as planned. Kept within cals. though and logged.
02/24 – 162 – Got in some home exercise but only about 20 min.
02/25 – 161.6 – Did not track cals. but think they were pretty good. No movement except for grocery shopping. Then did some online shopping for a pattern book, out of print a few years ago, and found it at a decent price – dithered & looked some more – you never know if you’ll find it at some library sale for $.50 or if this is your last chance to get it. Finally bought it because I want to make the pattern on the cover, although the exchange from USD to CAD is awful, and realized it’s 1 a.m.! But I got so caught up in my looking that no LNS and went to bed a little hungry.
02/26 – 161.8
02/27 – 161.6 – Gym today, finally. Maybe that will give me a little extra kick going down. Think I’m going to set up a couple of new knitting and embroidery projects – if I don’t have anything like that going, I tend to surf online for my downtime and that inevitably leads to snacking. I used to be terrible about snacking while reading – handwork is so much better because you can’t eat or your project gets grimy with fingerprints.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 380.2
02/23 377.8 (-2.4)
02/24 378.8 (+1.0)
02/25 379.6 (+0.8) – Not going good at all today so I may have another gain tomorrow. But after today back on track for sure. Goal today to get in my 7000 steps.
02/26 380.6 (+1.0) – Today is going pretty good so far. Hope I lose something tomorrow. I ordered me a new scale today. It should be here by March 7th. Cost a little over $50. Tired of getting on this one a 100 times. You get what you pay for. I am hoping it is better. If it is not I will be sending it back.
02/27 377.2 (-3.4) - Yesterday I got in my 7000 steps. I was not perfect but still ate pretty good. I can't wait to get new scale because this one is really getting on my nerves with the different weights each time I step on it. I am so spoiled because when I weighed over 450 I was spoiled I had an excellent scale that cost a lot. Now I don't want to pay for it so I am hoping the $50 scale from Walmart will suffice. I think I only paid $20 something for the current one. I am used to getting the same reading. After 10 years my other scale was gone
But it was worth every cent. Hopefully I will not have to get it again

Net change 2019 = (+3.6)- 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.

Feb 22 152.2 yay❣️
Feb 23 152 I did OK yesterday, better on the 21st. But today, Feb 23, I’m really struggling with food, as I did Feb 19-20. First time in 15 months. Not sure why it changed. Also very tired, struggling with exercise- today is the first day in 11 months I haven’t done dedicated exercise. It’s very odd. My toes & fingers are tingling, hot, cold, or pins & needles & have been since Feb 19. No idea why. Called dr, and they are not concerned as all my labs are great. I hope it will all go away, and I’ll get back to normal.
UPDATE: After typing this, I just couldn’t skip my daily exercise. I also thought a walk might help the symptoms. Asked my husband to walk with me 9-10 pm. Appreciative that he loves to walk & happily said yes! Habits are amazing.
Feb 24 153.4 Got back on track because of MFP UAC Group.
Feb 25 151 2nd day in a row with a calorie deficit. Walked over 13K, feeling like myself again❣️Appetite is back to normal. 2 days down, 3 to go.
Feb 26 151.6! Struggling with urges a bit, but keeping busy & not giving in.
Feb 27 150.8 I have to remember when it’s hardest is when I lose the most. Curbed the eating out, finally. Sodium is still a bit too high but steadily decreasing day by day. Took along hilly hike!
