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"

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!
05/17- 324.2- so it was a false low, but that’s okay! Going to stay on track today!!
05/18 323.8- maybe not a false low after all! Woo!
05/19- 322.6- I went over my calories yesterday, ate poorly, but did yoga... so maybe it all balances out? Here’s hoping!
05/20- 322.4- I was expecting a gain today or yesterday to be a false low, but hey, I’ll take it!!

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.
5/17 - 144.0. Much better day. Wins: RPM class and over 4 miles walked. Hydrated well. Ate better - had a little bit of junk at Bunco but was within a deficit. I guess some of that jump in weight was bloat so that helped make a drop for today. Now to work on the weight. 5 more days, if I focus I can do this.
5/18 - 143.1. Back down. Wins yesterday - hydration, 3 mile walk, core circuit, tracked calories and ended in deficit (even with steak for dinner!). Will be outside in the heat all day today and tomorrow. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!
5/19 - 142.9. Wins yesterday: HIIT class and 2.5 mile walk with dog early morning. Hydrated well because I was outdoors in 92 degree weather all day. Didn’t eat the best but I was still in a deficit. Hard to stay focused when you’re hot and miserable and kind of bored between your kid’s games 😊. Another day of it today, goal is to stay hydrated and in a deficit. And making sure my kid stays well hydrated in this heat too!
5/20 -144.0. UUUGGGGHHH. Yesterday was the perfect storm of my gym rest day so not as much movement, dehydrated I know because of the heat and humidity (thanks, North Carolina weather), and a dinner higher in calories and sodium than I've been having lately. I wasn't necessarily off plan and my calorie count wasn't too high, so I'm hoping it's just those reasons that I'm up again. Weighing daily is a roller coaster!

5/20 - 166.0 Threw all caution to the wind this weekend and just enjoyed every bite in company of my two adult children who have busy lives and both starting their own families. Both have chosen wonderful partners but being able to spend time with just them together was rare and wonderful. Today I will go back to counting calories, avoiding sugar, getting steps, eating more vegetables, drinking more water, etc. Feeling so blessed this morning.16 -

05/13- 164.8I indulged in some yummy food for mothers day and Im ok with this.
05/14-164.6 eh 🤷
05/15165 wah wah.... I know this is because I probably doubled my sodium intake last night. But tell me who would say no to roasting hotdogs on the fire with family when its finally nice outside !!! Todays plan... Water water water
05/16-164.6 this is kind of frustrating, but ill keep pressing on.
05/17-163.2 there's the loss i've been waiting for!
05/18-163.2😊
05/19-163 so close! Today might get tricky, fry out at church again.
05/20-164.2 a little over calories and a lot over sodium. Water today and keeping food in check. Im not too worried.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
5/12 No scale for 3 days
5/13 125.0 Happy with this after 4 days of not great eating and two days driving.
5/14 126.0 Ate at Taco Bueno before heading to airport yesterday evening. I ate all the carbs and didn’t drink anywhere near enough water so am super pleased with this. We’ll see how it goes for the remainder of this busy (but at home) week. Art Quilts and community bingo tomorrow, quilt guild meeting Thursday night, anniversary on Friday.
5/15 126.0 Busy day today
5/16 126.5 I ate a small bag of potato chips last night. My innards sound unhappy.
5/17 127.0 I’m not worried about this. I bought a bag of salted sunflower seeds in the shell to munch during the drive to Iowa last week. It said it was 2 servings but the bag lasted a week. I suck all of the salt out of the shells - doesn’t everyone? - so this could very well be water. Just not overly concerned. Our 49th anniversary
5/18 126.0 Lovely steak dinner last night and part of a baked potato. I think that is the first white potato I’ve had since starting keto 22 months ago. It was very tasty with butter, sour cream, salt and pepper.
5/19 125.0 Carlito’s tri-tip yesterday! YUM!

I am a 50 year old 5'5" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.
I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. I have been participating in this challenge since Round 40.

May 13 - 176.2 - had a lot of carbs and salt over the weekend and really feeling heavy today. Hopefully lots of water will help.
May 14 - 177.2 - my stomach is a heavy ball of nerves today, does that affect the scale any?
May 15 - 178.4 - got through my interview and really had a great day whether I get the job or not. Food wise, not so much, but Ill be better the rest of the week.
May 16 - 177.4 - had a pretty laid back day yesterday. Managed to keep food under control by crafting most of the day. Tonight is my swimming lesson.
May 17 - 174.5 - this was a surprise to see this morning. Had a wonderful swim lesson last night and lost of calories left over for the day.
May 18 - 176.4 - very late night and early morning could be a contributing factor. Also, the frozen pizza and cheesies probably weren’t the best decision.
May 19 - out of town no scale.
May 20 - 177.6 - two very high carb days in a row and way over calorie count for two days. A couple days of regular activity and lots of water should help.12 -

Round 76 -0 pounds 335.8-335.8
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.
05/17 330.2 I’ see if this sticks, but I won’t be too surprised by a slight uptick. It’s not unusual for that to happen after a couple of large drops. I’m hopeful though because this is a half pound from my goal for the month.
05/18 330.0 Almost there, if I stay on track and low sodium I’ll see my goal for the month tomorrow. If not I know that I’ll see it before the end of the round.
05/19 329.0 I’m not sure about this free fall of my weight. I’ve been on track with everything so maybe some of it is from water retention or something. I expect that it will stop or even bounce soon.
05/20 327.4 Still in free fall and I’m holding my breath waiting on the bounce up. I’ll be surprised if I don’t see one this round.

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!
05/17 201.1 Had a healthy dinner last night keeping it low carb and only drank coffee and water, no diet sodas! Didn't get to the gym, but decided to take my dog for a walk instead as my workout and feel great! Now just need to get my water up.
05/18 200.6 Knocked out early last night, so been up since 5:30 this morning energized! Had a healthy lunch yesterday and made plank grilled salmon and a salad for dinner. Really happy with results this morning!
05/19 ???- Wen't to my boyfriend's sister's housewarming party last night. Ate very good up until the house party, but I only snacked on a few things and skipped the desserts. Did take a couple shots and had half a coke. Didn't get to weigh in this morning, so hopefully didn't mess up too bad.
05/20 201.9 I'm so upset that this weekend, mainly just Saturday really messed me up. I know I can do great and lose that lb I gained quick, but hate how hard I work and then only a few hours with people can mess it up. I did have a keto breakfast yesterday and today and had a good dinner last night. Staying strong these next few days and going to try and up my water more.

Hi I’m Karen.
USW-187 Sept. 2018
UGW-135
Goal this round-157
5/16-160-I made it back and am finally near a scale. I found some Atkins protein bars to keep handy when I am hungry.
5/17-160-I’m back to walking and it’s nice. Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!!😊
5/18-162-Salty dinner with beers last night....and that was even after I walked 7 miles and cleaned the rain gutters. Oh, well, so what...I am just thankful I am in good enough shape to do all of that. I will head out for a big walk this morning before my quilting class.
5/19-I refused to weigh after poor choices.
5/20-165-Ugh! At least the weekend is over and my goal is to not drink alcohol during the week and eat well. I got a big walk in this morning.14 -
Hopefully I can just maintain this round and stay where I ended the last round. We have 3 graduation parties, my son and niece’s actual graduation, and a ton of family in town. Lots of eating out and drinks I am sure. It is a time to celebrate, so I’m trying to learn how to celebrate in moderation, both with food and alcohol. That has never been a strong suit of mine, lol.
Round 73: 150.4 - 148.8 (Avg 149.51)
Round 74: 148.8 - 151.9 (Avg 150.65)
Round 75: 151.9 - 148.8 (Avg 148.41)
Round 76: 148.8 - 147.7 (Avg 147.97)
5/13 - 149.6 had Panda Express last night for dinner, so I’m assuming I’m up because of the soy sauce and carbs. Plus I’m sure it’s the rest of my Saturday night activities coming back to haunt me. On a Monday to still be under 150 I am happy. I have my 1st grad party tonight at an Italian restaurant, so I’m going to try and choose wisely. Plan today is to drink lots of water to get the sodium and beer out of my system and try and fill up on salad for dinner. Also no bread or alcohol tonight.
5/14 - 149.6 same which is good. Italian dinner with family last night, plus my husband surprised me with an afternoon movie. Finally got to see the new Avengers which was worth the wait. Ended up having a couple of beers during the movie, but no bread sticks at dinner. We also stopped and grabbed burgers before walking into the movies, so staying the same was expected. Should be back down tomorrow, work all day and the my youngest has her talent show tonight. So meals are planned and prepped.
5/15 - 148.0 Nice drop today, should be back to 146.xxx tomorrow. Just in time for loads of family to come into town. My son and niece graduate tomorrow, so will weigh and check in quickly in the am. Hopefully I can make decent choices tomorrow, I know lunch and dinner will be out and there will be lots of celebrating. I don't think I will make my goal of 145 by tomorrow, but I am really darn close and happy with where I am.
5/16 - 147.0 ate really late last night trying to get ready for the graduation today. Two restaurant meals today and a lot of sitting. Wish me luck!
5/17 - 148.0 and I am back up. I now officially have 2 children that have graduated from high school! I did really well yesterday food wise. I did have a spicy bloody Mary (I just love them so much), 2 beers and maybe 3 glasses of water ( I know terrible). I know I was dehydrated because I woke up twice last night thirsty. I was way under on calories though, my breakfast was just over 300 and then I did not eat again till dinner which was only about 600 calories. Back at work today and hopefully will be back down tomorrow before we have to start the weekend. I have 1 more graduation party on Saturday and I will be done with events for this round. Half way through and right now I haven't made any progress, but I have maintained, which in my book with all the celebrating and eating out I have done, I'm taking it as a win!
05/18 - 147.0 still here just hanging out. My trend weight is the lowest it has ever been, so winner, winner, chicken dinner. Last grad party in this round that I have to attend today and hopefully I will do well and weigh in around the same tomorrow.
05/19 - 147.0 was hoping I would be back to 146.xx but I’ll take it. Did eat a couple bites of a cinnamon roll and French toast casserole. Holding steady and looking to get lower before this round ends.
05/20 - 148.1 kind of surprised I am up. Did really well this whole weekend, way better than usual. I did eat more carbs on Saturday than I usually do, so maybe this is just a delayed reaction. Looking to finish this round strong before vacation this weekend. Have all meals planned for the next couple of days and should be back down by Wednesday. 2 more days!

Round 77 (My first round)
Female, 4'11, age 57
Goal weight: 110
Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 149.8 Bummer - weight increased from weekend of 148.8, (drop after being almost constant since May 1) although within normal variation it seems. Seems that since I have increased calories to about 1400, but also increased number of calories burned that my weight seems to be more unstable on a day to day basis. water weight retention due to increased exercise? measurement error in exercise calories (likely)? error in food calories (likely)? Would expect a daily decrease based on calorie deficit, but clearly more complex than that as loss seems to be nonlinear.
05/14 149.8 well at least it did not go up again... seems to be a pattern of late to see a biggish drop of 1-2 pounds in a day, slight increases over a couple of days, and then another big drop. Wish I could determine why exactly and eliminate those ups! not enough data yet to correlate :-)
05/15 149.6 a 0.2 decrease !!! I'll take anything!
05/16 148.5 YEAH!!! 1.1 lb decrease and I finally made short term goal of having BMI drop below obese category!!!!!!!!! now onto goal of getting out of overweight category into healthy weight. Will see if weight stays at or below this for tomorrow. Again food diary and exercise diary predicts that I should see a drop, but I am guessing there will be a lag. Shorter term goal is to reach half-way point which is just five pounds away. So close, yet so far!
05/17 148.0 After the plateau from the 1st of May to the 12th, really excited to see another decrease!!!! Afraid it will go up tomorrow, but trying hard to keep track of food calories accurately and get back to the loss of 2 lbs/week goal. 4.5 lbs to midpoint on this journey!!!!
05/18 149.9 Well the nonlinear uptick today (which is starting to get predictable after a one day big drop) just wiped out the week's loss and BMI is back into obese category :-( Did cardio (spin class) and weights (just arms/chest) yesterday so definitely had a decent calorie burn, but did eat dinner later than normal last night. Grilled shrimp tossed with red/green cabbage and carrots, with soba noodles, mandarin oranges, cashews, mint, basil & cilantro, and a dark sesame oil/orange/rice wine vinegar dressing with a crisp rose. Lots of bulk with the cabbage. Slept in today and then went to gym for the step aerobics class (45 min with another 15 minutes weights/stretching). 15 minutes walking to cool down and then home to go out with family for lunch and to a u-pick strawberry farm. Picked 5 pounds of berries!!!! Super ripe and juicy and still warm from the sun!!!! Making overnight oats with yogurt and strawberries and will look for a sugar free ice-cream recipe, so let me know if anyone has any good suggestions!
05/19 149.1 Down again - I'll take it, especially as yesterday I was above calories for BRM! Hope this is the downward trend again :-) Today was slow day for exercise. 15 minutes on elliptical and then some core exercises. Need to update food diary, but should be blow target for the day. Will see what tomorrow brings!
05/20 148.0 Yes!!! Back to 148.0 this morning! Yesterday I kept carbs under control (although did have wine with dinner). So far so good today regarding carbs and plan a relatively low carb dinner - crab cakes and large salad with minimal bread crumbs in crab cakes, so will see if that helps. Hit the gym this morning for the flexibility/strength class and then 45 minute spin class. Knees still feel wobble after the push to increase the level up to 20!
Did not get to the weight machines so will just work that in later in the week. Positive Note - won the drawing for a t-shirt after completing a challenge at the gym the week before. Bad news I think I still need a large :-( although on the bright side, at least it is not because of the belly fat, but because I haven't changed bra size. Seem to be losing more fat on hips (yeah!)/legs/arms than on chest so far.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/13--207.8 Weight training at gym yesterday and then I took dog out for a long walk. Run tonight.
5/14--207.2 Did some snacking last night but stayed within my calorie goals. Went for a 3 mile run last night. Trainer tonight. Now that I realize that I snack a lot on the evenings I workout with my trainer I am already planning ahead. I did some research and found that the need to snack can be due to a need for protein, so today I am making sure that I up my protein intake after my workout. Hopefully that will help with my snacking tonight.
5/15--207.2 My plan to eat more protein after my workout helped. While I still snacked it was definitely less snacking than the last time I worked out with the trainer. Run tonight and then maybe yoga... depends on if I have to work late.
5/16--208.1 Bump is definitely due to my salty snacks yesterday evening. The snacking struggle is real. Was raining when I got home so I didn't go for a run, but I could have...was too lazy. Also did not go to yoga, but trainer is tonight.
5/17--208.3 Very tough workout yesterday so not surprised about the bump up. Going out for lunch and happy hour today, so we'll see what happens tomorrow.
5/18--208.7 I knew there would be a bump up after happy hour yesterday, but I had a great time. Even though I didn't feel like it I went out this morning and ran 5.5 miles...I was so proud of myself. I then decided to take some measurements and found I had lost 7 inches all over in the past 2 months...very excited! Today I'm going to take dog out for a long walk and make sure I get my water in.
5/19--208.9 Sore from run yesterday and my hip is hurting, so between the lingering affects from Friday's happy hour, the water retention from my sore muscles, and inflammation from my sore hip I'm not surprised I'm up again today and expect to be up for a couple of days. Going to take MIL out to lunch today for her birthday and then resting/icing my hip for the rest of the day.
5/20--210.7 I'm not even worried about the jump in my weight. I know it's from the salt at lunch yesterday, inflammation from my sore hip, and the lack of water I've had over the past 2 days. Hip is feeling better, no pain today and less soreness. Just making sure that I'm not sitting for long periods of time so that the hip doesn't tighten up so much. Did not go to gym yesterday and I won't be running today and instead I will just take it easy and do some light walking.

05/17 - 171.4 🤦♀️
05/18 - 170.8
05/19 - 171.8 Today is the only day of this round that makes sense. I’m sore, stiff and retaining water. This round has been frustrating with numbers but I really feel great. I’m getting stronger and I am amazed with my life changes. Maybe it is strange to say but I am feeling so proud of myself.
