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
5/28 125.0

Prayers for everyone experiencing stormy weather. We are finally getting the high temps we should have had in April!9 -
@cmon228@preciousme150 Girl, WOW!! How are you dropping weight so fast? What are you doing? How far are you walking?
Thanks, I'm walking a mile and half a day, making sure I get no less than 10K steps. I'm seeing more of the victory in my inches as the scale plays with my emotions all while trying to eat healthy. You inspire me, you can jog, I'm not there yet, my body isn't ready, it wont leave the ground. Have fun tonight with your crafts...8 -

@quiltingjaine I live on the Missouri side and work on the Kansas side. All I watched last night was the weather. It was incredible. Just waiting to see if it hit people we love. Waiting to see their OK messages or texts. I hope your DGD is ok. It didn't hit KC proper so hopefully, she's good. Also ... what is DGD?

Ending weight round 77 - 202.4
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.
5/29 203.5- Yay! Happy I'm starting to go back down! My lunch yesterday was an Atkins pizza and a side salad and for dinner I took my parents out to the movies. I shared some popcorn and had a couple bites of fries and a couple chicken strips. I'm stepping out for lunch today and thinking of getting a Panera bread salad or a Chipotle salad bowl. Trying not to let my sadness from this weekend get to me and my boyfriend is planning a day for us to get away this weekend to the beach or Palm Springs, so I'm really excited about that. Going to make a healthy dinner and try to get in the gym or go for a walk today. Goal is to get my gym bag packed tonight so I can go right after work tomorrow.

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.
05/29--208.1 Not concerned about the recent weight gain. I know that I am bloated right now, probably my digestive system still dealing with eating foods that I am allergic to from a couple of days ago. Worked out with my trainer yesterday an hip is still bothering me. He suggested I go see a PT, so I've booked an appointment for next week. After the trainer I was feeling frustrated because of the hip and the fact that I probably won't be able to run my 10K next Saturday even after all of the training I had done over the last couple of months, but then I had to remind myself that it is more important to make sure that I don't injure myself even more and make things worse. I also have a 7 miler scheduled in July that I running with my SIL that we had planned for months ago, so it's more important for me to get better now and be healthy to run that race.

05/25 weight 151lbs: goal to do 30 mins on treadmill - tick
05/26 weight 151lbs: goal to do 30 mins on treadmill and drink 1500ml water - tick. This challenge really works as a motivator. I've not done one before, not done any social media before, but I can get into this. There is no way I would have done 30min treadmill today if I hadn't got into the challange. Finding it hard to get 1500ml water in but I have done it for last three days just because I put it on my challenge goals. I usually just drink tea but not having so much tea and coffee means I don't have to waste cals on milk. I am sticking to 1200 cals so this is going to be a slow slog
05/27 weight STILL 151lbs: goal to do 30 mins on treadmill - tick - will get the 1500ml water in by end of day. Getting a bit disheartened now but I'm not giving up. The scales kissed 150lb but jumped back to 151.0 so was really good and logged 151. I'm going to start to put the .ounces in now. Since I started the challenge havent done less than 16k steps. Yesterday I did 22k steps, all day in the garden putting in veggies, hoeing etc. Agreed not much cardio or peak fat burn going on but I thought I would have gone down a notch. Ah well, hopefully tomorrow will see the drop. Logging every bit of food I eat, even logging it before I eat it to make sure I dont go over, how sad am I
05/28 weight 150.4lbs: yay!!!! at last: goal to do 30 mins on treadmill - tick - got the 1500ml water in yesterday. 1999 cals
05/29 weight 151.2: what a bum, went out last night for a meal. Over 2k calories yesterday. Extra exercises needed now, you can't go out for a meal and not eat though....can you? goal to do 30 mins on treadmill + extra 30mins to show willing - tick - 1500 ml water in yesterday, which reminds me I haven't drunk any water yet!!!! I hate drinking the water now I've got to guzzle like a crazy elephant to get it all in today

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.
05/29 188.0 - Yep, consequence of my actions this weekend still. Definitely didnt drink enough water yesterday either. I know what I need to do...it includes healthy eating habits AND healthy sleeping and self care habits. The binge definitely came in part due to exhaustion so working to balance things out a bit!

5'5 F, 36. entered this challenge as I just got back on MFP , I've always found that the support and "forum" to vent, complain or check in makes all the difference.
05/23 156.9 - was surprised as this is actually 1.2 lbs lighter to "start" this challenge than where I was last wk.
05/24 155.4 – WOW. I’m happy that tracking, and my morning walk/run is paying off.

05/26 156.7 Wtf!?!? Ok. Self talk pep talk it’s the weekend, Fridays cocktails are catching up, and I woke up at 3am and had insomnia , broken sleep, super tired… will get back on track.. this is not a tragedy. Ugh but still frustrating!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/23 – 197.2 – Up a bit to start. Thunderstorms on and off all day, so no walk. But I got lots of errands done and dropped the car off for service. Good food choices and plenty of water, but I’m feeling sluggish today. Guess I need to work on my sleep too.
05/24 – 195.8 – And down a bit more. With the car in the shop, I got tons of stuff done in the house and easily met my step goal. Went out for ices with the grandkids after dinner and still stayed under my calorie limit. Overall, a good day.
05/25 – 195.0 – Nice drop going into the weekend, but I expect I’ll see a bounce back up on Tuesday after the long weekend. Worked all day in the garden and finally finished the deck boxes. Such a perfect day for it – mostly sunny with low humidity and a cool breeze – that I think I overdid it a bit. I’ll be stiff tomorrow, but I’m perfectly relaxed tonight after a hot shower and a glass of wine. (Oh, and all goals met today!)
05/26 – 195.0 – Holding steady. On the road for a family BBQ today.
05/27 – No scale – Way over on food and under on steps, but I’ve had two fantastic days with four generations of family, including all my kids and grandkids. Best workout was walking and rocking my new granddaughter.
05/28 – 196.4 – Not unexpected, but still not fun to see, especially as I’ve only got one more weigh-in before my next trip. Rainy, humid day contributed to a slow start, but I eventually got a good bit done indoors.
05/29 – 195.4 – Okay, I’ll take it. Last weigh-in for a while. See you all in Round 80!
05/30 No scale
05/31 No scale

For a multitude of reasons, I have decided to leave MFP. I feel bad about not finishing this challenge, but I'll continue it, off-site. Only 3 days left. I wish you all the best. Thanks for your friendship.12 -
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.
05/29 - 151.9 big drop from yesterday. It's crazy how elevation changes affect me so much. The same thing happened when we flew a couple months back. Did well yesterday and on track today. If I can just end the month and this round back at 147.xx then I can take it as a win. We will see I guess!

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.
26-May... 186.4... +0.6
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!
27-May... 186.4... 0.0
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!

Didn't do great at Knotts but again only half a pound over in cals so should settle down in a few days.

STG 143.55 Midpoint on this journey! (loss of 33.55 pounds)
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
05/26 DNW " "
05/27 DNW " "
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.
05/29 147.2 Well not at all surprised that the 1.6 pound drop vanished overnight, as this does tend to happen after a big "whoosh" and I had a good run of 9 days without a big increase! Likely combination of the cardio/weight training (legs yesterday) and pasta for dinner, so expect that a lot of this is water, and hopefully will drop back down over the week (usual pattern). At least I felt well fueled for the spin class this morning and then upper body weight routine!!! Increased the weight for the chest press and some of the other exercises so feeling stronger. Have an appointment with nutritionist late this afternoon for monthly check in/tweak of diet. So far have lost 4.6 pounds this month, so slower pace than last month. Hopefully will end the month with a 5 pound loss!

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.
05/29 - 136.6 (-.5) - right direction, hoping to see it drop more but likely will see water retention increase.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

05/23- 206.9
I'd like to get back to ONEderland with this round.
05/24- 209.3
I'm not surprised. I over indulged and did not do much. I plan on being good today
05/25- 206.8
I did much better yesterday than I did the previous day. I didn’t over eat but still had some snacks
05/26- 207.0
Did much better yesterday and I did work out too.
05/27- Spent the night at a friends house and didn't get to weigh in
05/28- Same as 5/27
05/29- Was afraid to step on the scale lol. Will weigh myself tomorrow. Am pretty sure I'll be around 210 lbs. I joined a gym closer to my home (my old gym was 25 mins away vs 5 mins away). I'm hoping it'll help my motivation to work out. I worked out today and felt great. Need to explore my new gym.

05/23 390.4
05/24 390.6 (+0.2) I am back. Very stress. Selling my Dad’s building. Very hard going thru his clothes. My sister did not want to sale until he dies. Long story, but my Dad is going to be living a while and thankfully he seems to be adjusting well to the nursing home. Which is private pay. My sister did not want to sell because she was living rent free. I am power of attorney. I told her we could not afford to pay for two residences for my Dad and his money was not for us to pay for her residence when she can work. She finally moved and agreed to sale but our relationship is still strained and it only us two. But at least we are still talking even if not much. My Dad comes first. Now pity party is over and back to taking care of me. I will start back going to WW meetings Wed. Online only was not working. I need the weekly support and check ins. I am going to try checking in here more too on week days especially.
05/25 386.0 (-4.6)
05/26 385.6 (-0.4)
05/27 387.4 (+1.8) Not perfect over weekend but I definitely made some good choices. Last night at grocery store, made it out of there with NO sweets. Put back a slice of carrot. Picked up some fruit and fudge pop sicles. Have leftovers from yesterday.
05/28 388.4 (+1.0)
05/29 385.8 (-2.6) I went back to WW meeting today with old leader. Meeting was wonderful. Could not find a convenient Monday class so had to do a Wednesday. Reset my MFP ticker to home scale weight and will update on Wednesdays.

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.
05/29 …..194.6 ….. Today I had to take my DB to the emergency room (about 60 miles each way from home). He is okay but will need to see a neurologist which will be located Gosh knows where. Lunch out of town. Okay choices but not perfect. Dinner tonight is back to plan so I’m proud it has not turned into a binge. Yesterdays stats: 1827 Calories In / 2839 Calories Out. 48 Net Carbs. 14,641 Total Steps & 6.2 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 41 minutes. No planned exercise but I finished Spring Cleaning a cabin.

Ready for my round 15
OSW 88KG
RSW 71.4 kg (-16. 6 kg) or {-36.5 lbs}
05/23 70.8kg but I'm sure this drop belonged to the last round! 😁
05/24 70.8kg still. Happy with this!
05/25 70.1kg. I think the scale has gone crazy or I've found a sweet spot on my bathroom floor!
05/26 70.1kg on official weigh in Day. Down 1.4kg for the week. 70kg was my old maintenance weight before I put loads on. But now I'm going hidown more to where I was when I 1st lost weight.
05/27 70.0kg 1st major goal and 7th mini goal reached in 20 weeks I'm 18kg {39.6 lbs} down. I haven't been this weight for 5 years!! Next major goal is 63.5 kg which was my maintenance weight 20 years ago.
05/28 70.0kg and happy with it. Waiting for my usual blip up after a big loss but I won't complain if it doesn't happen! No exercise this week except a bit of yoga... Body needs a break and some stretching.
05/29 70kg again. Still happy with this. Had a huge clothes sort and chuck session yesterday for the whole family... Not quite Konmari but nearly. Inspired me to move onto the rest of the house.
05/30 70kg (was actually 69.95 but I don't believe that level of accuracy so I'm rounding up). All good.

GW 172lbs
UGW - we‘ll see...
Day/Weight/Comment
05/23 181 lbs - went out with a friend last night and had some Mexican food and two cocktails, so I was expecting a bit of water weight this morning. Hoping to have dropped it by the weekend, but I’m positive I will.
05/24 178.9 lbs I was hungry most of yesterday even though I wasn’t even that active. I snacked on strawberries mostly and drank lots of water.
05/25 179.3 lbs No idea where this comes from. I was well within my calorie limit yesterday and even worked out some 🤷♀️
05/26 178.4 lbs Sometimes I don’t get it. Had burger (without the bun) and a few fries yesterday and was sure I’d gain a pound of water weight because of the sodium alone. I guess I did sweat it out in the gym last night 😜
05/27 178.2 lbs slooooow but steady 🙄 did really well yesterday, both with food and water intake, so I’m hoping to see results soon.
05/28 177.9 lbs Ugh. Too slow for my liking!
05/29 178.1 lbs Getting a little frustrated. I was almost 200 below my calorie goal yesterday and did perfect the last three days. Not sure I will make my goal for this round like this. 😕
(TMI might follow:)
Going back through my diary of the last rounds I think this might just be hormonal. I had the same small losses and the little gains even though I was doing ok exactly 4 weeks ago, then a nice loss finally 3 days after my ovulation. So I’m trying to not get discouraged and wait for the end of the week.
05/30 177.8 lbs
