Round 76 (my 8th)

Round 69 TL: -3.6 pounds 360- 356.4
Round70 TL -3.6 pounds 356.4 - 352.8
Round 71 -3.8 pounds 352.8-349
Round 72 -1.8 pounds 349-347.2
Round 73 -3.6 pounds 347.2-343.6
Round 74 -4.4 pounds 343.6-339.2
Round 75 -3.4 pounds 339.2-335.8

OSW 382
RSW 335.8

If all goes well this round I will be within fractions of a pound from a 50 pound loss. My goal this round is to get as close to that marker as possible.

05/03 335.8 Staying the same is fine with me. I had a higher sodium day yesterday and am having back spams since late last night. My energy level is back up, which will be nice once my back lets up.

05/04 334.8 There’s the after tom drop. My back is doing a lot better after a day of tlc and I’ll probably take it easy again today. Today is family movie day and I’m hopeful of limiting or even avoiding the popcorn this time.

05/05 333.8 My usual continued drop after tom, sometimes the whole drop stays, sometimes I have a bounce back up. I guess I’ll see what the next few days bring.

Heck yes I am back! I love this group!
Name: Lauren
Age: 30
Location: California
Height: 5'8

Background -

I have been on the diet/wreckless food abandon cycle since I was 14 years old. It's the classic yo-yo dieter story. This last January I decided to make this the last time I'm losing that same 20 pounds by putting a greater emphasis on maintenance. So when I reached maintenance after round 71 I continued to stick around because this group is what really keeps my head in the game. So thank you all and especially the O.P. grandma Jackie 💜

HW (age 14) - 175 lb
SW Jan 2015 - 165 lb
lost down to 130 then gained back to 140 and within the last 8 months slipped back into bad habits
SW Jan 2019 - 147.5 lb
Maintenance goal range - 132-137 lb

R67-R75 results -

R67 EW = 141 lb; ∆ = -2.2 lb
R68 EW = 138.2 lb; ∆ = -2.8 lb
R69 EW = 135 lb; ∆ = -3.2 lb
R70 EW = 134.8 lb; ∆ = -0.2 lb
R71 EW = 133.6 lb; ∆ = -1.2 lb
~Maintenance~
R72 10-day-average = 133.1 lb
R73 10-day-average = 133.04 lb
R74 *missed* 10-day-ave = 133.2 lb
R75 10-day-average = 133.1 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment

05/03 131.8 t = 133.1
Having a really hard day. Just feeling emotionally empty. I don't know what's wrong with me, but it's got nothing to do with my weight or food so there's that. I just want to go to bed but I have to go back for a second shift in 3 hours. I'm going to try to take a nap. Thank God it's the weekend tomorrow. Just gotta power through.

05/04 131.6 t = 133
I slept in this morning and feel so much better! My weight being down is probably just reflective of the later weigh in time. I have not been doing my yoga so my goal for today is to do one yoga video.

05/05 131 t = 132.9
I slept 11 hours last night because I took a sleep aid. So I assume my weight drop is just water weight as I ate 300 over maintenance calories yesterday, including 100 grams of sour patch kids candy 😂

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 - 139.9 (+.7) great way to start 😂 I think I’m retaining water because TOM is coming. Will see how it plays out. If TOM is close I should have a good drop during round. 🤞🏻
05/04 - 140.2 (+.3) no idea what’s going on. I’m not eating over my calories. I’m exercising a ton. Drinking a ton of water. Should be going the other way but it is what it is. I’m guessing it’s bloat and water retention since there’s not much else I can attribute it to. Going to keep at it and hope for the best in the coming days.
05/05 - 140.3 (+.1) I have no idea what’s happening. I am thinking maybe I’m holding on to water because I’m fighting a cold. I’m still able to eat and have energy but still fighting a head cold. Not sure what else could be happening. I’m eating good and doing more activities than ever.

JGM10D ~|~ Round 76
Posting weight and comments each evening.
My aim for 2019 is to reach 155.
I am FOCUSED on heathy food choices and DETERMINED to achieve my goals!

Age: 72; Height 5’2”; Female
SW: 227lbs (Mar 2014)
LW: 153 (Oct 2016)

Fri 03/05: 163.6: Goals: Move more than I did yesterday ✅ Slowly building my steps back up. And the scale continues to drop. I seem to have lost my appetite for snack foods!
Sat 04/05: 163.2: Goals: move more than yesterday, spring-clean bedroom ✅ Now I’ve developed a throaty head cold. Gotta get on top of this! Feel really washed out!
Sun 05/05: 163.6: Goals: Nurse my cold ✅ Too whacked to do much else My energy levels have been really low today. Sleeping a lot and having an early night.
Previous Round

Tu 23/04: 164.2: Goals ✅ 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 The scale continues to drop!
We 24/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ Ah well, a wee bounce up is not unexpected.
Th 25/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ Holding steady is good!
Fr 26/04: 164.6: Goals ✅
Sa 27/04: 164.4: Goals ✅💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 Can’t be bad to that! 😂
Su 28/04: 164.0: Goals ✅Couldn't find yesterday's post.
Mo 29/04: 163.8: Goals ✅Didn't believe this at first this morning, but, yep! There it was.
Tu 30/04: 165.8: Goals ✖️Woke up after a bad night. My knee is swollen and I can barely move with the pain. Not much appetite either. The weight gain is all the fluid round my knee joint. Once the knee is sorted it will go.
We 01/05: 164.8: Goals: move more than I did yesterday ✅ Knee is slowly recovering. And some of the swelling has gone.
Th 02/05: 164.2: Goals: Move more than I did yesterday ✅ I am counting this as a successful result. The mobility in my knee is still improving and the water weight from the swelling has reduced.

Daily Goals

Purple: #ff4968.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving 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!

SW this round (5/02): 149.2

05/03 147.8 Even though this is technically hitting my goal weight for this round, I'm going to keep my goal weight the same for now. Still going strong on my (temporary) keto plan, and I set movement alarms yesterday to reach 3744 steps. Two weekends to get through in this round, here we go! (Don't mess it up, don't mess it up...)
05/04 147 No complaints! Expecting it to bounce up again tomorrow. Everything is sitting like a lump in my stomach.
05/05 144.4 What?! Yesterday, I did a short aerobics workout, but it only balanced the extra 200 calories I ate, so I guess I have to credit keto for this? Boo, kind of. I like carbs!

Hi everyone! I love this challenge most of the time, but the ones that we have to end on a Sunday or Monday kill me, lol. Oh well, would love to see 146 something this round and to stay out of the 150's again. Ended high last round because of my anniversary dinner, but also saw new lows through out the challenge, so hopefully we can continue the downward trend.

EW Rnd 73: 148.8 (10 day Avg 149.51)
EW Rnd 74: 151.9 up a couple pounds because of vacation and Easter (no 10 day avg/didn't weigh 5 days)
EW Rnd 75: 148.8 (10 day Avg 148.41)

05/03 - 147.3 back down to Wednesdays weight before my bloody Mary sodium gain, lol. I am ending this week with a 3/10 of a pound loss. Not exactly what I was wanting, but it is a loss so I will take it. My 5 day average was down almost a whole pound, 8/10 of a pound to be exact, but still good. The weekend is here and all I want to do is stay under 150! Happy Friday everyone!

05/04 - 148.2 had a couple beers with dinner last night and ate super late, but ate super low calorie. Should be back down tomorrow. Water water and more water and no alcohol!

05/05 - 148.8 what can I say it’s the weekend. Had pizza for lunch(only 1 piece) and tacos and rice for dinner. Not even close to enough water and not one vegetable or fruit all day. Running errands and will be restocking the house for the week today.

05/03--207.6 Lowest weight in about 3 years. Went to trainer yesterday...my trainer complimented me on my strong back, I felt really good. Hubby and I practiced our dancing last night.
05/04--207.6 Going for a run today, The weather is supposed to be great here today so later hubby and I will be taking the dog for a long walk and then going out for dinner.
05/05--207.4 Perfect weather in the PNW yesterday for a run...ran for 4.5 miles. I went out for dinner yesterday and ate something that I have a food sensitivity to so I expect a bump up in the scale over the next couple of days, but I made a conscious decision to eat the food so I'm okay with that. Went to the gym this morning. My husband was impressed that he could see the definition in my shoulder muscles as I was tying my shoes...it's funny how a compliment about something like shoulder muscles could make my day.

05/03 270.2 Feeling pretty good about today. Made it through the first three days of low carb diet and went for a jog last night. Seeing a weight drop is really uplifting.

05/04 268.6 Worked last night. Nothing like a 13 hour shift to help get the blood moving!

05/05 268.2 Worked last night. So many steps! Today is run day, but I picked up a shift, so I'll be trying for my 5K at midnight. Eating is on point, and I feel really good about pretty much everything.

Ready for another round! I’m keeping my goals basically the same and hoping I’ll actually get a few chores done this time.
R75(1) – SW: 202.8 – EW: 198.8 (-4.0)
R76(2) – SW 198.8 – EW:?
Round 76 Goals:

1) Walk 30+ minutes each day
2) Active gardening or household task 30+ minutes each day
3) 64-80 oz. water per day

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 – 198.8 – TGIF! Misty morning walk (60 min). Grocery shopping after class. Made Rueben sandwiches (all that salt!) and a cucumber salad for dinner, then settled down for a lazy Friday evening in. Looks like rain might put a damper on outdoor plans tomorrow

Trying to stay optimistic

05/04 – 199.4 – A little bump, but I’ll work on it this week. This morning’s rain gave way to a beautiful sunny afternoon in the city. 21,716 steps, including over 2 ½ hours of walking through the park at a brisk pace. At least 96 oz of water, but I’ll need a bit more before I turn in tonight.

05/05 – 199.4 – Heavy rain all day. Lazy morning and no walk, but I eventually got a couple of hours of cleaning done before my dinner guests arrived. Carnitas tacos, sangria, and flan put me over my calorie limit, but I was under yesterday, so we’ll see how that works out. Fun weekend. I ate all kinds of food, but less of it than I might have in the past. Working on developing sustainable habits 😊
