06/02 didn’t come across this challenge until June 3
06/03- 182.6: decent day, no sweets.
06/04- 181.6: horrible eating day. Started off really well but worked from home and ate a ton of junk. I paid for it later with an upset tummy 😠 . New day tomorrow
06/05 - 180.6: made up for yesterday's poor eating day. I did have some chocolate but it was within my calorie allotment. Working from home again today and will try to keep my eating under control. I've been trying to get more sleep too but had to stay up for the basketball game - GO RAPTORS!

CW: 172.8
GW: 128
This round my goal is to reach 170 and incorporate more exercise into the mix. – Here we go!
6/2 – 172.0 – Spent the day cleaning out the shed. Not going to lie, sore today but so pleased this task is completed!
6/3 – 171.8 – The day did not go as planned and I was not very careful with my food choices. Today I will choose to be more diligent.
6/4 – 171.2 – Glad to see a little movement down this round. Yay! Did 17,500 steps yesterday by cleaning out the house again. I think I have a few more days of sorting then packing up the rest. I am thankful for the built in workout! LOL
6/5 – 172.8 – Emotional day all around. Led to eating too much food that my body does not need. I am disappointed, however at this point I just need to face the reality and today make a better choice.
6/6 – 171.6 – I had a better day and was more conscious of my food choices. Today hoping to get another long walk in and move some boxes around. Here is to a good day!

06/04 332.6 I went off track for a couple of days, but I’m back on track again today. Still no tom, but I’m not worried as my mom started menopause at this age. If I still don’t get it in the next week I’ll schedule an appointment with a doctor.
06/05 330.6 Back in the right direction.
06/06 329.2 Still going down and I was mostly on track yesterday. I went way over on sodium and I’m not sure that I’ve been good with my water. Hopefully I’ll see the last of the binge weight go in a few days.

Ending weight round 78 - 140.4
UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's. Will see what's attainable when I get in the 130's
Goal for round 79 - get in 130’s and stay there!
6/2 -140.2. Shocked it didn’t go up as I took a day off completely from tracking. Even ate fast food for dinner. Guess it could show on the scale tomorrow, will see. Happy right now!
6/3 - 140.4. Wins yesterday: 2 workouts (just happened I met two different friends for active activities on the same day), but I did not track food and I don’t think I drank enough water. Back to tracking today with that goal of seeing the 130’s on a regular basis.
6/4 - 140.4. Holding steady. Time to tighten up that tracking and get myself in those 130's. Wins yesterday: 5 mile run, 3 mile walk. Ate out for lunch so a little heavier meal, but tried to balance that with a lighter dinner.
6/5 - 140.2. Wins yesterday: HIIT class and 3 mile walk. Didn’t eat great (hello, Oreo thin mints) but stayed in a deficit. Stuck in the low 140’s, need to avoid those Oreos today.
6/6 - 140.2. I really am stuck! Wins yesterday: bodypump class (which I don't love, but went because it fit the time I had free and a friend convinced me to go), 1 mile run afterward because it was global running day, and about 5 miles walked. Thought I did OK with food, stayed in a deficit. Need to get this number to drop.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2: 193.4 (A slight gain which is expected on the weekend. I had a graduation party I went to last night so I ate a controlled amount that I preplanned. No workout yesterday as well. I really want to make my goal this round so I can get a gym membership!)
6/3: 192.8 (I had a very tough time during my 5K training last night. Part of my running is uphill since the areas around my house are very hilly and around my entire town. 3 of the minutes I am panting for breath but getting more and more used to it. I still was able to do 6 minutes of continuous jogging which is a very huge success. Last night I made potato corn chowder for dinner.)
6/4: 191.2 (It's on the way down! I am at my last Friday weigh in and I'm hoping to finally see the 190's tomorrow? Maybe? Crossing my fingers! I made poblano chicken with rice last night and I did a 30 minute TurboFire workout.)
6/5: 190.4 (Finally the 190's!!! I've been waiting for like a month for this and now it's here and I was so close to making my goal! I did a 5K training workout yesterday. The plan I have has me doing a recovery week so I had to run 3 minutes instead of 6 yesterday, which was super easy. I made chicken noodle soup and garlic bread last night. Yum!)
6/6: 189.4 (I am in the 180's! New decade and I can now get a gym membership as my reward! I am going to a LA Fitness by my house to sign-up tomorrow and I can't wait to finally get some classes in! I'm so happy I stuck with it after having a tough month with hardly any new lows. Last night I did a 55 minute TurboFire workout and ate some pork chops with potatoes. Now onto my next goal )

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2 - 159
We had a good time at Arab Fest yesterday - great food, and I ate what I wanted, but other than breakfast that was it for the day - falafel, hummus, pita, stuffed grape leaves, beautiful saffron rice, za’atar chips, baklava. Yum! I also had a lovely henna design put on my hand (see pic - sorry it’s so big) and enjoyed talking to the artist, an Afghan teacher now living in Indianapolis. Another calorie challenge coming up today with our UU picnic pitch-in, but I’ll try to behave. I have lots of walking plans for the week! Have a lovely Sunday, all!
6/3 - 161
OK, yuch but not unexpected after a weekend of indulgences. Some is water - I feel a little bloated and know I ate more salt than normal. I'm still aiming for my goal by the end of the round. It's a gorgeous day so I'm planning at least one long walk, plus garden work. Enjoy!
6/4 - 160.2
We went to Fazzoli's for lunch yesterday - not my choice - but other than indulging in a bread stick, I kept calories within bounds, and definitely within for the rest of the day. DH can eat pasta 'til the cows come home and never gain an ounce - no fair! It's raining now, but supposed to clear up, so I'm looking forward to a long walk later. If not, I'll hit the Y.
6/5 - 159.8
My calories were a little over my goal yesterday, but I worked several hours in the garden and dug out under the gait and laid pavers, so that burned a few. The forecast is for scattered T-storms all day, but I'll try to squeeze a walk in. We have a couple of guys coming tomorrow to dig out my new big flower beds -- can't wait to get started planting those! Happy hump day, all!
6/6 - 159.8
Anyone else sick of cloudy days? At least it's warm, and rain is sporadic. I'd just like a little sunshine. Oh well!

6/2 169.6 Very happy to see this. Didn’t walk yesterday but worked in the yard for two hours. More dang branches. It's supposed that to be beautiful. My goal is more yard work and maybe a walk.
6/3 169.2 Did a little yard work and walked for three very slow but lovely miles. Kept my calories in check and drank a lot of water. I'm working from home today and will get in a little yard work this morning. Walking will be determined by when the rain starts.
6/4 170.1 Not too worried about this. I knew I wasn't completely done with the 17Xs but I hope to be by the end of this round. This was the plateau from hell. I was 17X for approximately 160 days. The same weight I stalled at when I lost weight before. My body apparently really likes to weigh 17X. It's over now and I can move on. I worked in my yard for 4 hours yesterday. Then an old friend came over and we went to a nice dinner. I was fairly good in that I had no dessert and I had a salad for dinner but this place has the best nachos I've ever had in my life. I have posted the pic so you understand. They are pot roast nachos and they are heaven. I only had one chip but my estimation is over 500 calories for it. I ate back 4 hours of work plus an extra 81 calories.
6/5 170.1 Getting less ok with the 170 anything. I was good on calories, walked 2 miles, and drank a ton of water. Why is it the same? Maybe leftover sodium from Monday's dinner?
6/6 170.0 Only walked a mile, I waited until 9:00 pm but it was still too hot. I stayed under on calories but yesterday was very stressful. My friend who is in the hospital had a set-back and it struck me hard because I feel if I was with him he'd be doing better but I can't be in Colorado. I have to work and my job is in Kansas City, it isn't a job I can do remotely for more than a day or two. My outlet for stress has been going to a remote trail and walking for an hour. The heat has stolen that pleasure at least for now, so I was being pouty about having to go to the gym. First world problems - I will take my junky butt to the gym tonight and stop feeling sorry for myself. I can't control what I can't control. I am not actually responsible for everyone I know.12 -

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2--207.0 It was actually weird this morning to get up and not go to the gym, I usually go today and workout on my own but since my hip is hurt my my trainer does not want me to work out by myself...I can't wait to go to PT on Tuesday and hopefully get some answers. I did go out for a short walk this morning and will go out again today, but I still need to be careful. Going to work at getting water in today.
6/3--206.7 Don't know if this weight will stick. Didn't drink much water today, I'm just hoping to hold steady with my weight until I figure out what is going on with my hip.
6/4--206.7
6/5--206.5 Went to PT yesterday. The PT said that my hip is not going to get any worse and a lot of the pain I am feeling is because I am hypersensitive to the injury since this is my first injury ever. I worked out with my trainer and included the PT exercises and my hip is feeling better already. But most importantly the worry that there's something more to my hip pain and that I may not be able to ever run/hike/bike again is now gone.
6/6--205.9 Was stressed yesterday and did some evening snacking. First time in awhile that I've done that much snacking, luckily there isn't that much snack food in the house so it could have been worse. I've been doing the PT exercises and so far so good...trainer tonight.

2-Jun... 145.8 - stayed within calorie bounds, family emergency - not much exercise
3-Jun... 146.6 - stayed under 1200, got in a good brisk 2.75 mile walk at lunch
- planked 2 min and 4 push ups
4-Jun... 145.0 - stayed under 1300, but did have tacos & chips & guac! Got in a good quick 2.5 mile walk at lunch, my arms/shoulders are so sore from yesterday. No pushups or planks.
5-Jun... 146.2 - I feel a bit bloated this morning and going to focus on drinking lots of water today. Working thru lunch so no walk. Crazy busy day, took 3 horses to a barrel race in the evening so I skipped dinner. No walk at lunch but total calories for the day were 632.

I’m new to this challenge and jumping in a little late. I’m 51 years old, female, 5’7 and started getting serious on MFP about 10 days ago. I’m in the midst of a couch to 5K program and really enjoying it.
Starting weight: 186 (as of about 10 days ago)
Goal weight, eventually: 150
NSV goal: Goal this round: increase endurance while running and to stay on top of logging
6/4…182.4. Felt pretty good about this, though I felt like I was cheating the scale by weighing myself after I ran first thing this morning, so little water intake and before breakfast. It still counts, I think!
6/5…181.5. I’ll take that! I like this result in particular because I met a friend out for lunch on 6/4 and I thought the sodium might have an impact. I really slogged through a 45-minute walk/run today. I felt so sluggish and low energy, but we’re going out tonight, so I need to.
6/6…182.0 I confess: I had beers aplenty last night plus a late-night slice of chocolate cake. We had a blast. No regrets at all.

06/02 – 244.6 lbs. – recouping from celebrating over the weekend. I laid around most of the day with my legs elevated.
06/03 – 243.9 lbs. – (Down Down Down) The plan for today is C25K Week 6 Day 2. I brought my lunch and I will make sure I get 6 cups of water in today. Then, I will complete 25 Burpees, 45 Squats, 45 Crunches and 35 Plank Jacks.
06/04 – 242.3 lbs. – (YAAASSS! New LOW!) And the celebration calories have been officially worked/burned off. I plan to do a long walk today. Then, I’m thinking about doing the Brittne Babe workout. I believe I have her volume 7. For lunch, I’m having a salad with chicken. Keep up the great work everyone.
06/05 – 242.6 lbs. – Ok well, I’m extremely sore today. So, I’m going to blame it on that. I need to make sure I get my water intake in today. Today is C25K W6 D3 (22 min jog). I can do it. I didn’t bring lunch so, I’ll have to find a good salad.
06/06 – 241.0 lbs. – (YES, YES,YES) It rained yesterday, but I still managed to do that 22 minute run for the C25K program. Today, I’m thinking about doing my Brittne Babe workout since it supposed to rain/storm this afternoon.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2 148, traveling yesterday in a car so ate within calories. but ate McDonald’s for lunch and pizza for dinner so salt was more than usual. I tweaked my neck sleeping so hopefully will feel better in the afternoon to go workout
6/3 147.5, today will be busy, but everything is prepped so should be a good day
6/4 147.6, going to mini golf after work with some colleagues. I managed to get a strength and conditioning class and 60 minutes on elliptical so hoping to be closer to my end weight of round 78 by the end of the week.
6/5 147.2, managed to be good with diet until dinner last night. Going to the opera tonight and having dinner nearby (already picked out what I’m eating). Not as sore as I usually am after a strength class so probably can fit in a 60 minute elliptical machine workout
6/6 146.5, hoping to stay with my diet and exercise plan through the weekend. Finally back to where I was at the end of round 78 (although I think that weight was an outlier since my moving average line is still going down at 147)

Day/Weight/Comment
06/02: 145.7 Had been bouncing around from 145.8 to 147.x last 10 days week so happy to see a drop again. Today was my "rest" day but still did a slow routine on the elliptical using the Zone app to target HR, then lots of stretching and some ab routines. Swam a couple of laps (actually feeling better getting in a bathing suit in public) and realized that default workout app in Apple Watch does not track laps with a kick board, so looking into alternatives. Still trying to loosen up quads after the HIIT workout yesterday, so won't be surprised if weight does not go down or actually goes up tomorrow! Ate well today - dinner was grilled grouper, homemade guacamole & chips (measured to control carbs!), cabbage slaw with pumpkin seeds and rose.
06/03: 145.7 Yeah!!!! Weight did not go up - I needed that after last week's trend that looked more like a kid's version of the Rocky Mountains in profile. Plus I caved and had some more tortilla chips at 11 pm :-() In any case don't think it put me much over calorie budget! Quads felt looser after the spin class this am, but I decided to give the leg machines a rest today to let the quads recover some more and pick that up later in the week. I may switch the order and do weights for chest/upper back/arms later this evening. So far calories/macros good for the day, so hoping for a decrease for tomorrow! Half-way point is only 2.2 pounds away! So close, yet so far!
06/04: 143.7 wow - 2 lb drop!!!! Definitely a whoosh and will probably bounce back up a bit tomorrow, but will still take delight as any gain tomorrow is likely going to be water (as long as I stay in control for dinner/evening eating!) and now within 0.2 lbs of my short term goal of reaching midpoint to ultimate goal weight!!!! Went to circuit class last night rather than do weights so had a pretty intensive cardio day yesterday (total "active energy" based on Apple watch was 1220, which also includes walking, etc). Held off today on weights for legs, and just focused on arms/upper body this am. Less intensive cardio so far so may try to work in a short HIIT session on the spin bike before pilates later on.
06/05: 143.6 OK it is a small drop and holding steady after the whoosh, but really expected it to go up!!! Extremely happy that I am within 0.1 lbs of my midpoint weight!!!! Particularly thrilled since I had pasta (half of the size that I use to eat, but still satisfying - radiatore with fresh tomatoes, shrimp, olive oil, garlic and basil) so was wondering if higher carbs would lead to more water retention. Macros were all within usual bounds, with just more carbs at dinner, so not really an excess of carbs. Now last week I did have a 1+ lb increase after having carbs + heavy leg weight training, as well as the day when I had heavy leg weight training and no pasta/lower carbs so it might suggest that my weight is more sensitive to the weight training than variations in carb sources (most days carbs are vegetables/fruits/dairy sources). Today I had heavy leg weight training (but lower carbs for the day), so will be interested in weight tomorrow. Prediction right now is that it will increase. Will continue to collect the data as it is difficult to generalize based on small amounts of data!
06/06: 144.2 Went up as I had expected might be the case. Seems to be a response with the heavy weight training for legs, as was within calorie goals (well as close as I can be and did weigh the salmon and other items yesterday as well as prepare all of my own food). Even though weight went up by 0.6, I am still down 2.8 lbs over the last 7 days, so actually above my goal of 1-2 lbs a week. It will even out, but impatient to get to my midpoint weight! Needed to hook bra on middle set of hooks today (first drop there since February) so at least the clothes indicate improvement! Primarily cardio today - step class and may do tabata later and some weights for upper body. Need to work more on upper body strength as not as strong there as with legs.

I’m ready for June and to get going on another round. I have absolutely no plans of traveling or taking time off of work in this round, so hoping to make some progress and see a new low! Would love to finally see that ever allusive 145.xxx!
06/2 - 148.7 same as yesterday which means I did well on a Saturday. Need to make some progress this month so I am really going to try and be good.
06/3 - 148.7 yeah!! Stayed the same through the weekend. On track today so far and hoping to see 147 something tomorrow. My daughter turns 17 today officially so we are doing enchiladas and cheesecake for dinner. Saving all my calories today for tonight and may only have a bite of the dessert. I am also doing my enchiladas without tortillas so that should save me on some of the carbs.
06/4 - 148.7 Still (4th day in a row), WTH! Stuck to my plan for dinner. I did my enchiladas over a bed of lettuce while everybody else had normal ones and I only had 3 bites of cheesecake without chocolate or caramel sauce versus an entire piece. Did well with water and no alcohol.
06/5 - 147.7 Finally some movement on the scale and luckily it's in the right direction! Staying on track and hoping for the best this month. I am 1.2 pounds away from my lowest weight last month (146.5), so waiting to see if I can make it back there this round. I ate a banana this morning for breakfast because I was running late and almost fell over when I entered it and found out how many carbs and calories there are in them. Guess I won't be grabbing that on the go anymore, should have taken the green apple. Oh well, lesson learned.
06/6 - 147.7 Well I can say this has probably been the most consistent round I have ever had. My hubby picked me up from work for a surprise lunch today and I am happy to say I did not blow the entire day. I had a burger wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun and a side salad instead of fries at Red Robin. It was not as good as the alternative, but I am really trying to break through this plateau I have been on. I have been super good, so I did what I needed to do. Hopefully I can see a pretty good drop soon. I have started tracking my steps as of yesterday too, so I am working up to 10,000 steps a day.

06/03: 199.1 Back on the band wagon and starting today. It’s been a while but checking into this group daily really helped me in the past. So I am back. Kids are away this week so I will use this time to reset my routine and reacquaint myself with the gym.
06/04: 197.1 (-1.3) NICE I know this is a big decrease for 1 day but I am just starting out so I will take it. I am hoping to be in the 195 area by the end of the round. I think that’s a reasonable goal. I am shooting for mini goals with my first one to be less than 190 by mid-July.
06/05: 197.3 (-0.5) Yesterday did not go quite as planned. Spent the entire day at the vet with my dog who needs surgery next week for a compressed spinal cord. Went over calories but I kept it in check as much as I could. Today back on track and brought my gym bag to workout after work
06/06: 196.8 (-0.5) Great day yesterday. I stayed below calories to make up for yesterday and made it to the gym. Twice so far this week which is more than I have been in months. My dog is having surgery next week and my husband is out of town. I have a contingency plan for the gym/ exercise depending on how long she stays in the vet hospital. I am not going to let this stop my newly found momentum.
