@IsMollyReallyHungry you said,
“made it out of there with NO sweets. Put back a slice of carrot. Picked up some fruit and fudge pop sicles.” Fruit and popsicles ARE sweets and fruits have been genetically modified to have more sugar than in the past. Do be careful - I gained 30# eating fresh pineapple and watermelon! It was zero points and no one ever suggested I was eating too much.

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.
5/22 125.5
5/23 127.0 Ate at a Chinese restaurant. I had General Tso’s chicken and even ate some steamed rice. This is what high carb, junk carbs, do to me.
5/24 126.5 Going to Pahrump for lunch today, Aviators game tonight.
5/25 125.5 Had a lovely steak salad yesterday, half for early lunch and half dinner. Had no snacks at the ball game or at home. Sewing day today. May make Keto goodie to share. No adult beverages last night.
5/26 125.0
5/27 124.5 Yesterday we had champagne brunch. I ate bacon, sausage, scrambled egg, one small spring roll, one fried dumpling, some sautéed squash, 2 glasses of champagne. Later ate 1 Keto snickerdoodle, 6 sunflower seeds and a handful of pork rinds. Memorial Day picnic today

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.
Start Weight Feb 2018 - 202
Next Goal - 170 I will get there.
Ultimate Goal - 145-150
Round 70 - SW - 179.6 EW- 177.4 - average weight over 10 days - 178.1

Round 77 - SW - 176.2 EW - 178.8 -Average weight over 10 days - 177
May 23 - 176.8 - I had a fairly decent day yesterday. Managed to get a walk in and ate within calories.
May 24 - 176.4 - another decent day yesterday. Spent the day with Michaela, we planted some flowers and cleaned up the yard.
May 25 - 179.4 - I don’t believe this can be accurate. I will see tomorrow I guess.
May 26 - 179.8 - ugh this is mostly carbs and sodium I think. I haven’t eaten that much over my calorie goal. I need to go buy some fruits and veggies today.
May 27 - 179.6 - better day yesterday, it will take a few days for the carb weight to drop though.
May 28 - 177.8 - another good day yesterday. I need a lot more of these days.14 -

05/23 - 183.0 - Mini whoosh. Back to documenting my days here. Went back and read my blogs and the daily insights are really helpful. I've been back to morning protein smoothie and packing lunch. Lots of seasoned tuna packets on low carb wraps for ultimate ease and squashing excuses.
05/24 - 183.4 - Yesterday did not go as planned. Had to roll with the punches but ended up eating out at a burger joint so feeling a little salty today. Retail job is giving me a lot more steps than normal though. Got breakfast sandwich this morning because out of almond milk but chose an egg white and swiss on multigrain for 240 cals instead of higher cal options. Packed my lunch though! Final wedding dress fitting tonight and 5 lbs up since last visit so fingers crossed!!!

05/28 186.6 - No surprise there as I went off the rails this holiday weekend. I did lots of physical activity as well though, so back to the habits today and moving on! The dress fit beautifully! Must remain around at or below 183 by June 22. Feeling so tired today thanks to my terrible eating this weekend though.

5/23 203 - I'm not too surprised to see this, I had Wingstop for dinner yesterday. I didn't have much, but I had a couple pieces of the boneless wings and I know that did it. Had a light and healthy breakfast this morning and will be having a poke salad for lunch today.
5/24 ??? - Spent the night at my boyfriends so no weigh in this morning. I had steak fajitas for dinner with my boyfriend's sister last night. Only had a few chips and one thin flour tortilla. Having those leftovers today for lunch along with a low carb breakfast and an iced coffee. Will weigh in when I get home or tomor morning. It's my brother's birthday today and we might be going out to dinner to celebrate. Hoping to stay strong this weekend!
5/25 202.6 - Really surprised I went down a little. Even though I had a light early lunch at work I ended up having Wendy's for lunch when I got home. We later went out to dinner at Dave and Busters for my brother's birthday. I had bites of things, but didn't have much. Woke up this morning feeling really nauseated, hope it all passes.
5/26 203 - Snacked on chips and had cheesecake, I know this weekend is off to a bad start. We also BBQ's ribs which is not too bad, but that bbq sauce got me.
5/27 203.6 -
5/28 204 - Like a lot of people I fell off the rails this Holiday weekend. I did eat mostly healthy for breakfast and lunch, but dinner messed me up along with having desserts to celebrate my brother's birthday. And the major contributor was me having chips, I know that really messed me up. I've also been really down this weekend. Found out one of my best friends is moving an hour away and she didn't even bother to tell me. So I've been in a weird funk because a lot of my close friends are drifting further apart from me and I feel pretty alone. I really am thankful for this challenge and group. Everyone is really friendly and this is the support I need in my life right now.

05/23 185.2 Nice to start the round with a drop that I was not expecting! Annual trip to the ballgame with DS1 so ball park food for dinner swapped beer for diet coke and gave him my fries but still expected a sodium jump. The game went to 13 innings so we didn't get home until the wee small hours of the morning so I will have to be extra vigilant about my choices today. I have now done 7 days of no sweets- need to keep the streak going.
05/24 IDK! Scale gave 185.6 and 187.2 maybe 186.4? A good day yesterday,was proud of myself for making good choices despite being very tired. The uptick is probably delayed reaction from the trip to the ballpark.
05/25 186 after work BBQ yesterday skipped the beer, chips and potato salad but really enjoyed the bratwurst and the sunshine! A little stress eating - a handful of ritz crackers - but way better than a handful of chocolate bars 10 days no sweets!
05/26 184.4 ! slept till noon so that's part of it! Had a good workout yesterday and a nice walk in the evening, back in time to see the end of the basketball game - so nerve wracking! Other than that a lazy day yesterday no errands, no chores, no meals - the boys had pizza and I had left overs (salmon and asparagus so i didn't suffer!) Lots to do today - but tea first!
05/27 187 I don't understand.
05/28 186.6 Weird day yesterday - NSV my colleague and I had to walk up 4 flights of stairs to a meeting - she commented that I was "in way better shape" than she was! Fell of the sugar wagon - but back on track this morning.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/22 …..194.6 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
05/23 …..194.6 ….. Hard to believe after another day of travel that the scale did not move in the wrong direction this time. I’m hoping it does not show up in a few days like it sometimes does. Good luck everyone this round!
05/24 …..195.8 ….. And there it is from the travels! Yesterdays stats: 2080 Calories In / 3034 Calories Out. 123 Net Carbs. 20,198 Total Steps & 8.66 Total Miles. IF 16:8. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 37 minutes which was fabulous! I took a 44 minute walk in the neighborhood after my higher calorie/carb dinner.
05/25 …..195.8….. Holding steady but *%$#*^ I had LNS I should not even have in the house. Sorry grandchildren, it is all going in the trash can today! I’ve got to get a hold of my diet. I am doing good exercising and/or movement so it’s clearly my diet that is failing me. Yesterdays Stats: 2376 Calories In / 2547 Calories Out. 114 Net Carbs. 15,123 Total Steps & 6.4 Total Miles. IF 16:8 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 44 minutes. I raked & hauled leaves for 52 minutes & I took a 22 minute walk after dinner.
05/26 …..194.7 ….. Now we’re talking! I decided at about midnight to prep cook for the next 4 days lunch (or dinner) meals. I was tired but I knew I had to do something. This will make it easier over the next few days as the guys continue to work on my kitchen. Yesterdays Stats: 1385 Calories In / 2504 Calories Out. 25 Net Carbs. 12,531 Total Steps & 5.3 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 11 minutes which felt great. I took a short 20 minute walk. I’m feeling pretty strong right now & hope to stay on this horse & ride awhile. I found that I was so sick of some of my keto recipes that I didn't think I could stomach another bite so I got online & found some new ones to help keep my diet more varied & it's working. The new recipes are great & tasty. I just had to find/take the time but it was so worth it. My goal is to keep researching & finding more. Those great recipes and tastes are out there.......
05/27 …..194.3 ….. Another step in the right direction. Loving my new recipes & I need to do more prep cooking but today I have two roofs being put on over 2 of the cabins & I’m spring cleaning another cabin which is a two day process including removal of all furnishings, appliances & beds/furniture so I don’t know that I’ll fit it in. Yesterdays stats: 1073 Calories In / 2643 Calories Out. 30 Net Carbs mostly veggies. 14,371 Total Steps & 6.08 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 2 hours & 18 minutes so I will be very tired later. That left me a lot of “awake” hours which make the hunger & cravings worse, but I powered through. No planned exercise. Too busy running the business & cleaning cabins during this holiday travel burst, but lots of movement. Have a great Memorial Day everyone.
05/28 …..195.1 ….. Holiday weight. I worked my tail off yesterday then I got an unexpected call from an old friend who had moved away two years ago. They were in town & wanted to come over & spend the evening with me & my son. So we had the fast holiday dinner BBQ & my carbs & calories were overboard with indulgence including dessert. Back on track today & getting past it quickly. I’ll work on extra water today. Yesterdays stats as best calculated. 2480 Calories In / 2716 Calories Out. 170 Net Carbs (ouch!) 15,021 Total Steps & 6.36 Total Miles. IF 16:8 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 10 minutes. I woke up with a stiff neck again without having changed my pillow. I did 11 minutes on the elliptical & took a short 11 minute walk mid-afternoon. Moving on toward continued successes.

All is good. Thank you for asking. Every weekend is a struggle for me and the past two weekends I have not tried at all. Once I get back to work tho, my weight goes down so I think a lot of it is water weight. I am very careful with my eating during the week and not so much on the weekends. Fresh picked strawberries (and ice cream) were the culprit this past weekend, lol.7 -

05/26--206.1 I can't believe that I am down over 3 lbs after my trip to visit my parents. While I didn't eat a huge amount I did go out for dinner twice, I didn't do much exercise, was resting my hip, I didn't drink much water, and I was expecting some water retention from the flight. Well, my hip feels better, but not 100%. I'm supposed to see my trainer today, so I'll see how that goes. My hubby cleaned our house and even cleaned my car while I was gone...I should go out of town more often. Goal for today is to go food shopping, get back to my normal eating, and just relax.
05/27--207.4 Not surprised about the bump. Worked out with trainer yesterday which was the first time I worked out in about a month, so definitely some water retention. The workout was great. My hip held up for most of the workout, but I didn't finish the whole workout as my hip started to tighten up a little near the end of the workout. I am going to try and go out for a short run today and see how it goes. Going to see a movie and then relaxing for the rest of the day.
05/28--207.8 I was able to go out for a short run yesterday to test the hip and so far so good. There was a lot more walking then usual and some extra stretching, but the hip felt good and still feels good today. Going to trainer tonight. I had a co-worker this morning whisper to me what I've been doing lately because it looks like I've lost a lot of weight. What's funny is that I haven't lost much weight recently, but as someone whose 5'10" it takes a lot more of a weight loss for the weight to show. Add in the fact that I've started to get back serious to lifting weights over the past 3 months, it's now that the results of all the hard work are showing up. That is something that is hard to come to terms with when we are losing weight. Even though it would be nice to have the scale show a loss every day, every other day, or even every week it's not always the case and that's ok...it's a marathon, not a sprint.

05/28 - 182lb - not bad! I was expecting a much bigger jump than that considering what I ate over the weekend! Hopefully a chunk of it is water weight and I can still get back to 180lb by the end of the round! 🤞

Back again, still working on my last 10 lbs (they are very stubborn)! Last round was not my best and very discouraging. I was able to maintain through multiple events and parties, so I'm taking that as a win. This round I will be leaving for a long weekend with the family for a vacation through Memorial Day. We have lots of activities planned that will require walking and getting outside. It's rare to get the older kids (adults now) and the younger kids all together on the same trip, so I am excited.

05/23 - 147.5 still here. 3rd day in a row and up just over a pound from last week. Way under calories yesterday and drank tons of water. On our way out the door for a 5 day much needed vaca!

05/28 - 154.3 I really debated whether I was going to post this or not, but it is what it is, plus I know most of it has to be water and sodium weight. I had an amazing time in Colorado with all of my kids and my husband, but I know my water intake was horrible the entire trip. I made pretty good food choices most of the time, but carbs were higher than normal just because they are sometimes easier to eat on the go. A 7 hour car ride yesterday to come home didn't help much and I returned with a nice little sunburn from the zoo the day before. Back at work today and drinking my water. Don't think I will make my goal this round, but taking a break from counting calories and weighing myself everyday is what I needed. I was starting to get really frustrated with the whole process and needed a restart. I was very temped just to take this round off and continue my little frenzy, but I chose to come back and post. I need the accountability and I am ready to see what I can accomplish in the next couple of weeks. So the break is over and I am back on the wagon.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/23 147.3 Great start for this challenge; 0.5 drop from the end of the last challenge!!! So far this week have not seen the typical one pound increase/plateau but have been keeping carbs more stable lately. Have a relatively low carb day dinner planned (spinach/arugula with quinoa salad and grilled arctic char) so seeing if that might help with the usual bump that seems to occur each week! (also saved enough calories to enjoy a glass of wine and stay within target). Did weight circuit (legs) at the gym and then 45 minute step class - good workout! When I went to bathroom, saw what looked like small pea size blood clots, but urine looked OK otherwise. (I have been in menopause since I was 45 so not period related!) Checked it out with PCP this afternoon and no microscopic blood in urine, so supposed to check back if it re-occurs. Mystery for now, but she thought it could be exercise related or perhaps ibuprofen as had been taking as lower back was a little sore still.
05/24 147.4 small bump up, but typical. At least not the 1 lb bumps that I have seen previously. Went to gym this morning for flexibility/strength class and then spin for 45 minutes. Noticed that sweat smelled like ammonia (yuck) and did not have the same energy level for my workout. only had a cappuccino this am before working out (forgot to make overnight oats with yogurt and had to leave early so skipped even the yogurt) so likely burning protein and low on glucose. Yesterday was also lower carbs than usual so need to watch that I get enough healthy carbs relative to protein/fat to avoid this. Finished up at the gym with some walking on the track to cool down and then did my arm weight machine circuit as will be out of town Sat/Sun/Monday. While I felt I had plenty of energy for the arm circuit, having a three day rest away from the gym for the holiday weekend is probably a good break!
05/25 DNW out of town no scale/no gym so going to eat at maintenance level

05/28 145.8 Highly pleased when scale this morning read 145.8, a drop of 1.6 pounds from the last weigh in!!! (Although I won't be surprised if it goes up tomorrow!). Limited exercise while on vacation - just walking in town/beach and did some core body exercises each night. Tried to make good food decisions when eating out, although did have more wine than normal. Highlight was going through closet to find beach clothes and trying on the large linen pants from last year and finding that they were too big, and that the medium ones looked great! (getting close to halfway). Still need a large top as bust size as not changed as much as hips. Worked out at the gym this am - did leg weight machine regime and latin dance class, and may go back this evening for pilates for more stretching/core work.

Pizza night with friends Sat and Scottishfest on Sunday all day. Lots of walking and will make light choices. Not going overboard like I did at Knotts last week. Took me 5 days to get that weight off and I'm dying to be under 185 now that I hit that mark beforehand. Not letting a holiday weekend sabotage my success.
Tuesday after Memorial Day the entire house will start JJs 10-Day Smoothie Cleanse so will fall half in this challenge and half in the next. I hope to see 10 lbs gone between the 2. That's my goal. 170s here I come!

Really nice night with another fabulous Skinnytaste dinner with family. Made Asian Turkey Meatballs with Hoison Sauce using my new air fryer. Gina's recipes just don't fail. Tonight yummy pork loin chops of my own recipe. Gotta stay away from the cookies the daughter made. Would love to see 186s tomorrow.

Oh what a night. Thankful I got through it. Pork Chops were lovely, but had too much wine. Still recorded a loss and I'm going to lighten up on the drinking tonight.

Better than I had hoped for and didn't follow through on the alcohol but chose prosecco at 90 cals/5 oz. So yummy. And Skinnytaste barbacoa was a HUGE hit in the house last night. REALLY happy to see that 185 again.

Fun night with friends. Salty foods, but made my homemade pizza with Skinnytaste dough so thrilled to see how slight this difference is. Been a great weekend so far. No time today for workout with early am church then Scottishfest. Drink and good time shall be had!

Loving no change. Wonderful day watching Scottish athletics; caber tossing, keg and stone throws, wandering the vendors, watching the sheepherding dogs, the pipers and drummers.. just incredible! Evening spent with friends who prepared smoked jerked ribs and chicken wings.. the exact thing hubby wants for dinner tonight, but mine. Will get a workout in today to be sure. Gotta get to the store. Enjoy the day! Americans were blessed with this holiday by the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom! God Bless America!

Better be careful here... took back on 1.2. Yesterday was good food. Didnt overindulge and stayed within cals. Going to Knotts again. Wish me luck!

05/23 - 136.1 (-.8) - off to a good start. Did yoga yesterday and some other random cardio. Ate chips for the first time in awhile but didn’t go overboard, ate healthy otherwise. Not feeling bloated but I do feel sore from yoga.
05/24 - 136.4 (+.3) - feeling bloated. Food and exercise was good yesterday.
05/25 - 136.4 (0) - worked out quite a bit (yoga and cardio), drank 11 glasses of water, healthy food.
05/26 - 136.4 (0) - I believe TOM is hitting again in a few days causing water retention. Will see. Happy there hasn’t been a gain!
05/27 - 137 (+.6) - there’s the jump. It’s definitely water retention. DOMS, TOM coming.
05/28 - 137.1 (+.1) - eh will probably be like this for the next week or so with TOM. Eating right, water intake is good, and exercising.
