Female, age 41, 5'6"

SW - 150.1 (starting on 3/25)
Ending weight round 72 - 145.3
Ending weight round 73 - 143.7
Ending weight round 74 - 145.7
Ending weight round 75 - 145.9
Ending weight round 76 - 143.7

UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's. Will see what's attainable when I get in the 130's

Goal for round 77 - continue the momentum from 76 and end with a loss. I’ve been up and down through the challenges and would like to see a steady decline, no matter how small.

5/13 - 143.5. Got in a 4 mile run and did tons of walking and was on my feet all day. But most of that was at a music festival. Did not hydrate at all, can feel that today (and not from alcohol, only had one beer. Barely drank any water while there). No good food choices so I tried to stick to smaller portions. Got home at 2am so not nearly enough sleep last night. Hopefully won’t let that derail me too much today. All worth it to see Foo Fighters 😊.

5/14 - 143.5. Pretty happy this is the same as yesterday, fully expected a gain. I feel bloated today. Wins yesterday - long walk with dog. Other than that I rested and ate too much. My husband and I both took the day off post-concert so we went out to lunch. Back to tracking, hydrating, and a solid workout today, 8 days left in this challenge to hopefully see a decent loss.

5/15 - 143.7. So surprised it's not higher. Wins yesterday - HIIT class and 2.5 mile walk. Food intake was terrible, I grazed all day long. Super stressed about work stuff (company going through a merger, had several meetings in the morning and my job is looking less and less stable) so I gave in to stress eating. Really need to reign that in today and stay on track for these last 7 days!

5/16 -145.1. Wow. 2 days of stress eating can do a lot of damage. Need to find a better outlet for stress. Work and family stress at the same time - time to pull out my stress management tools and avoid the pantry. Did get a 4 mile run and a 3 mile walk in yesterday but clearly ate too much and didn't drink enough water.

Late to the party this time.
I've struggled the last few rounds. My winter blues did not go away but descended into a bigger problem. On Tuesday evening I realized I had eaten 5 chocolate bars and a package of candy in one afternoon! So my goal for this round is to stop the sugar/chocolate binges and get back to tracking. yesterday was my first day "back"

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 203.7 Was out of town the weekend before plus mother's day, so starting fresh after today.
05/14 202.6 Had a healthy lunch and dinner, kept it mostly low carb.
05/15 201.5 Healthy lunch, but I gave in and had 3/4 of a bread at Panera. Had an unsweetened iced tea
instead of diet soda today! Going to boyfriend's house today after work and he always messes up my healthy eating, so hope to keep making good choices.
05/16 ??? Spent the night at my bf's and his scale is always wrong. Says I'm 203.4, but don't think it's right, so waiting until I get home from work or tomorrow morning to see where I'm at. We had Lucille's for dinner last night, but I portioned everything and skipped on dessert. I did have some diet coke, but also ordered a water and had a little of both. Hope to stay on track today!

Round 77 (my 9th)
OSW 382
RSW 335.8

After a bad end of last round I’m hopeful of staying on track and getting close to my first 50 pound loss.


05/13 335.2 A nice beginning of round loss. I’m hopeful of getting back and beyond the low I had middle of last round. I was fully on track yesterday and hopefully that trend will continue.

05/14 333.4 I’m cautiously optimistic about this weigh in. I was very on track with everything yesterday. I know that all the supposed gain of the last few days was water retention and this weight is very close to last weeks low. If I continue on track I might hit my mini goal this round.

05/15. 332.6 And back to a new low. I’m happy to see the weekend gain gone.

05/16 331.2 That’s on track and it looks like the last of the water gain is gone. I’ve hit my 50 pound lost goal and if I stay on track the rest of this round I might see my monthly goal weight too.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13-325.4- I know it’s only .2 up from yesterday and that it’s a normal fluctuation but it doesn’t make me feel better about it. I would love to start a round at or under the previous one.
05/14- 325.2- got married yesterday and went about 700 calories over my allotted, but you don’t get married every day. I expect an uptick in the next couple of days.
05/15- 324.2- lowest weight I’ve seen since starting this! Woo hoo!
05/16 323.8- hoping this isn’t a false low! I went a little overboard on the peanut butter (my biggest weakness) so I’m surprised to see this number!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/12 …..192.7 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

05/13 …..192.7 ….. Hard to believe weight is the same after 2 celebration meals yesterday. I watched portions but was way over on carbs. I’m sure it will show up on the scale in a couple of days. Very very sick today. Literally in bed all day. Either the flu or more likely some severe dehydration. I’ve been drinking a large amount of water today in bed. I think I may have worked hard on my steps for my birthday goal, but not taken in enough water. This is the first time I’ve sat up today. Heading back to bed now.
Good luck everyone on this round!

05/14 …..192.7 ….. Still sick but holding weight steady after Mother’s Day probably due to the illness. I have some work that must be done, otherwise, I’m pampering myself as I still feel horrible. No movement yesterday. I literally did not even hit 1000 steps---in bed all day. Calories were low because I felt so bad. I don’t know whether to expect an up (Mother’s Day festivities) or a down (sickness) in the coming days. We shall see….

05/15 …..192.6 ….. Movement in the right direction. Finally felt better by last night. I didn’t desire much food but I was back to craving “goodies” so I stuck to my standby Keto snacks to stay within my limits though it could have been better planned. I just wasn’t sure about my stomach quite yet. Yesterdays Stats: 1047 Calories In / 2415 Calories Out. 20 Net Carbs. 11,316 Total Steps & 4.81 Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 37 minutes. No planned exercise – I certainly didn’t want to push it. I now know it was a bad flu because others around me are coming up sick now too. Oh my!

05/16 …..192.6 ….. Higher calories & carbs yesterday as I was finally fully hungry & that monster reared its ugly head. I ate back calories but took a long walk to offset the macros a bit. Yesterday’s Stats: 1580 Calories In / 2625 Calories Out. 16,234 Total Steps & 6.87 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I did not sleep any hours last night. Too much on my mind & didn’t feel tired. I will likely sleep like a baby tonight. I took a 75 minute walk to offset the extra 180 calories I ate. Kitchen remodel slowly continues so I have no livingroom floor to dance in still. Maybe I can use my hallway but the movement will be a bit restricted.
