It's my go to at 90 cals a glass so if I go overboard, it won't completely derail my success. NO MEAT, NO WINE and NO BEER... just my smoothie and the snacks allowed!

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)

LTG: 110.0 lbs

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.

06/02:

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.

6/02 - I wasn't at home, so no weigh in this morning. 41g carbs, 36g net carbs. Carbs were: salad, crackers, peanut butter.

6/03 - 176.2 - 26g carbs, 25g net carbs. Carbs were: belgian waffle, ingredients in turkey burger.

6/04 - 177.2 - 30g carbs. Carbs were: 10 crackers. I'm becoming really disinterested in eating, which is not good.

6/05 - 6/05 - 176.8 - 17g carbs, 13g net carbs. Carbs were: beef au jus sauce, broccoli, guacamole.

6/06 - 178.2 - 40g carbs, 25g net carbs. Carbs were: 3 large croutons crushed, peanut butter, salad, avocado. Felt tired all day, ate peanut butter at 10pm, seems silly when about to go to bed. Not enough water yesterday. Been dealing poorly with some one else's life stress that has too easily become mine. Stress the past few weeks is now showing up as disinterest in eating and bloated abdomen from cortisol. 😕

Thanks @deepwoodslady it is finally working but hasn’t been for two days. Glad to easily access this again.

@MarisaMSimon congratulations on 180s. That was the one that made me the most excited for some reason. I danced all morning when I hit 189. I hope you are dancing 😃

Result:

Day - Weight - Comment
06/02 - 136.1 (-0.7) - still expect fluctuations. I am feeling bloated and retaining water. TOM weight should shed in a few days or so. Food was healthy and within cals, exercise cardio (lots of it) and strength training, 16 glasses of water. Staying on track regardless of the scale. My body shows a lot of changes even though the scale doesn’t reflect them.
06/03 - 136.3 (+0.2) - Drop any day now🤞🏻
06/04 - 136.1 (-0.2) - nice little drop but hopefully I see a bigger drop soon.
06/05 - 135.4 (-0.7) - lots of cardio the last few days and TOM is over so finally a good drop! Hopefully it sticks and I can continue the trend for the rest of the round.
06/06 - 136.6 (+1.2) - very sore today and ate later than normal. DOMS. Slow and steady is the name of the game these days. Still have a decent loss per week which I work out to about .8lbs. Being so close to goal it has been a bit of an adjustment learning to deal with smaller losses but it’s still moving in the right direction.

Round 79

Please join us! Starting on 06/02 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 79
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/01 152 ~ (Steps 17,972) - Again, I going to try to keep focus, ugh. This last couple of months life has brought unexpected things, with my husbands godmother passing away. On the bright side a few weeks ago we went to go pick up Pete the Pug, our new addition to our family.
Day 1 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

06/02 151.7 ~ (Steps 15,923) ~ Yesterday was a successful day, I’m hoping this trend will continue, I can do this, I WILL do this. I would love to loss a few pounds before the end of September, my son is getting married!
Day 2 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

06/03 150.7 ~ (Steps 14,075) ~ We spent the day taking my 8 year old grandson to lunch, he picked Red Robin, yay! They got to met Pete, way toooo cute! I was able to stay focus with my diet, woot hoot.
Day 3 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

06/04 150 ~ (Steps 17,765) ~ We spent most of the morning running around plus had lunch out afterwards. I’ve managed to make healthy food choices, plus an evening walk.
Day 4 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

06/05 150.5 ~ (Steps 13,179) ~ Yesterday, I had some morning errands, then Pete had an appointment at the vet, for his second round of shot. He’s 4 points 13 oz of cuteness, lol. I think the scale is reflecting, my late dinner unfortunately. I’m okay it it though since late night snacking wasn’t the factor, woot hoot.
Day 5 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

06/06 150.5 ~ (Steps 20,778) ~ Yesterday was successful with my goals plus getting home late again focus me to eat later than I planned. 😢😢
Day 6 no late night snacking and under carb goal ✅

OSW : 213 (May 2018)
CSW : 205.4
Challenge GW: 201
UGW : 135 lbs

Ending weight round 77 - 202.4
Ending weight round 78 - 203.3 (where I left off on 5/31)

06/02 ??
06/03 ?? Was out of town from 5/31-6/2 and not sure what my weight was during this time so leaving blank.

06/04 205.4 - Really really discouraged after seeing these numbers. Not even a month ago I was 200 and since then I've just been slowly gaining. This past weekend get away was much needed, but I kind of let myself go with snacks. I had a healthy lunch yesterday, but got hungry and ate a late dinner which was a light meal, but still shouldn't have eaten so late. Today's lunch was a salad and keeping it healthy and light. Going to try and make a nice healthy dinner and get some steps in. I'm motivated, but sometimes feel like I'm not allowed to be healthy. From waking at 5:30am just to make it to work on time and working 7:30-4/4:30pm, and spending the morning driving to work and exhausted by the time I get home around 5pm along with literally every weekend being booked with SOMETHING it's draining and difficult to find time to take care of myself. I was trying to do the gym at least after work, but I don't even have time for that anymore and running on such little sleep is killing me. I need help.

06/05 204 - So so happy this number went down! I was starting to feel really defeated. I had Wingstop for dinner last night, but only had 5 wings. I messed up by having a couple boneless wings, those are heavier. I had a healthy lunch planned for today and although I won't have time for the gym this week, I'll be running around trying to get last minute errands done so I'll get my steps in that way. I appreciate everyone's hugs, they mean a lot to me and definitely cheered me up from this weekends big gain.

06/06 202.8 - This number just made me so happy! I ate healthy yesterday and took my dog for a walk so got my steps in. I did have bad tooth pain and woke up this morning with my mouth swollen from my wisdom tooth and an infected tooth. Stressing over all that, but excited I'll have the weekend off in Vegas to get away.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

My third consecutive round: progress so far RND'S 77-78 net - 1.9 lbs lost

Start this round - 273.5
Goal this round - 270.0

Day/Weight/Comment I keep hoping this is the round it really busts lose; I know its coming.
06/02 - 273.5 I have really been stuck for awhile and need to get this thing moving. The weekends are always a step back for me.
06/03 273.4 Looking forward to a good week and making some progress. So looking forward to saying adios to the 70's forever.
06/04 272.2 down a bit , was a slim day of eating yesterday.
06/05 272.8 some positive takeaways, im not having huge wt fluctuations day to day. Im trying to work through bad leg pain and hoping to get more active if it improves.
06/06 271.6 man i usually get 8k steps a day pretty easy even with my bum knees, but ive had alot of right leg pain so I have given it a three day break. im at 6400 with a couple of hours left so hopefully its improving the pain has been less today. Don't take your health for granted if you can get out there and go do it, someday your body may not cooperate. I may not be done with the 70's quite yet but we are getting close. 👍

Let's see how this week goes.

06/02 no weigh in but had a good day. 1/30 accomplished

06/03 138.8 2/30 accomplished today I entered all my meals for the week, hopefully this will help keep me on track and stop me from mindlessly snacking or looking for easy meals. I am feeling really good about this decision

06/04 136.8 3/30 accomplished had a good day today and nice whoosh this morning when I woke up. Hopefully it keeps going and doesn't plateau *fingers crossed*

06/05 135.8 4/30 accomplished so far so good. Entering all my meals for the week has so far worked out really well. I am sticking to it and I am not frustrated with making decisions on what to eat and has kept my snacking mindlessly at bay. 👍👍

06/06134.8 5/30 accomplished woooooooot!!! Finally kicked that 135 mark.....ok, i know that it is only a .2 but progress is progress and I have been waiting for this to be kicked for so long now. (I think the count is four months) unfortunately for me though shark week is in a day or two...so this might be short lived. I don't mind though, as long as I am here I know I can touch this number again!!! Yay!
