Mini Challenge: 10 Pounds by July 4th
Replies
-
Highest weight: 182.3 lbs
Ultimate goal weight: 125 lbs? (Not really sure how I will look/feel at this weight, haven't been this size since high school).
4/21: 133.8 lbs (Challenge starting weight).
4/27: 131.9 lbs
5/4: 129.5 lbs
5/11: 128.3 lbs (loss of 5.5 lbs during challenge, total loss of 55 lbs).
3.3 lbs to go!
If I surpass my goal during this challenge, I will drop my goal to 122 lbs. I still feel like I have weight to lose.
Out of curiosity how many calories are you eating a day? I am a similar weight! I am currently 125 aiming for 118 eventually but only 122 for the challenge. But my weight loss has slowed to 0.5 pounds a week on 1300 calories no formal workout.

I am fasting these days, so this weight loss could be mainly due to dehydration.

I posted on Monday that I was having trouble because I kept gaining weight, and then I lost 4.5 pounds in 3 days. I'm not doing anything unhealthy either. I'm starting a FODMAP diet today to deal with stomach pain and gastro issues. I think my fluctuations could be due to some health reasons (I have been advised to try FODMAP by my PCP in the past).2

May 10: 161.8 - not a huge loss, but glad I was able to lose at all. I had a pretty full weekend of calories and it took some extra time to get that weight back down.
May 17: 161.4 - not much loss again, but I've been sick this whole week. Slept most of the time so wasn't as active as normal. Hoping to start next week off healthy.

April 26: 9st 7lbs (133lbs) (-2lbs)
May 3: - 9st 6lbs (132lbs) (-1lb, -3lbs))
May 10: - 9st 5lbs (131lbs) (-1lb, -4lbs) Lost weight but I have gone really off track with eating. I am either crash dieting or eating far too much. I have changed my goal to one of eating consistently and well.
May 17:- 9st 4lbs (130lbs) (-1lb, -5lbs) Maintenance weight. Now to eat well to stall well.

Goal - To get back to my goal weight I only need to shift the last 5lbs of the 11lb I've put on over the winter. That stubborn 5lb have been so difficult to shift but it's time to see it go! Stop trying to achieve crash weight loss, eat well at maintenance4 -
1) I need to taper to maintenance and do not know where my "final" weight will settle.
2) I met my Easter challenge goal of 165 lbs early, went on two weeks of maintenance, and gained a pound. Ugh. (In my defense I had to attend THREE seders AND a big Easter dinner. That was a very ham-and-wine-intensive weekend.)
3) I will be traveling for three weeks in May so, realistically, may not be able to manage my weight as well as I have at home...but I will sure try.
For these reasons, I want to participate but without a set number of pounds for the final weight. My goal will be to lose between 0 and 3/4s of a pound per week.
