6/13 – 171.6 – NOOOOOOO Ugh. Ok today more water, more movement and no eating after 7. I got this, right?!
6/14 – No weigh in or logging of food
6/15 – No weigh in or logging of food

6/17 – 170.4 At least I am not going way up…The family will leave on the 19th. That will be a help.
6/18 – 172.0 – Ugh birthday cake, eating late and lots of cheese and bread. Need better self-control! One more day with lots of people. Today no cake or eating late. Plus more water….I can and I will do this…one day at a time.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 192.0 (Back to this number that my body loves, but at least I'm 0.8 pounds down from yesterday. TOM should be here in 1 day according to my app. I had Trader Joe's mandarin chicken last night with rice and did my 5K training where I had to run 9 of 30 minutes. Oh my was it hot yesterday! 105 degrees and I did intervals instead of straight through since the air was so thin. I'm glad I accomplished it though!)

06/13 - 191.4 (A slight decrease but way higher than last week's weight. TOM is here any day now! I had breakfast for dinner and did my first spin class in years! My lower body is hurting today!)

06/14 - 190.8 (I gained 1.8 pounds this week but I just got TOM yesterday one day early. That explains all the water weight! I did a 5K training session even though I didn’t want to at all!)

06/15 - 190.6 (Forgot to post yesterday but weight is starting to go down because of TOM! I had chipotle and didn’t do a workout!)

06/16 - 191.0 (Went in a date night last night and ate half of my dinner. I didn’t get a dessert this time! I did a 5K session and I’ve been having trouble running. I read online to run slow! I’ve been running too fast that I can’t seem to run long enough. Can’t wait to try this Tuesday!)

06/17 - 191.6 (This is a good weigh-in! I'm 0.6 pounds less than last Monday, so I'm hoping for a loss. I did a Zumba class yesterday, finally! I've been wanting to since I got my gym membership, but the workout room at LA Fitness by my house has been under renovation. I had to travel to another gym in town to get my Zumba fix. I had Father's Day dinner last night, which was steak, baked potato and asparagus. I also made a strawberry shortcake for my FIL at his request and had a small slice of that.)

06/18 - 190.4 (I'm already below my Friday weight and it is barely Tuesday! I'm hoping for a new low and to get closer to my next Happy Scale Milestone. I did a very fun Zumba class yesterday with one of the most fun instructors! He really pumped everyone up and no wonder his class was full! I made spinach and cheese empanadas last night with a salad.)

Day 7 of Round 80

Age: 55
Height: 5' 4"
Recovering from abdominal hysterectomy and benign tumor removal on 4/02/2019. I see a nutritionist since my activity is low to non-existent with 12 week recovery.

OSW - 201.1 (Feb. 2019)
RSW - 181.0
RGW - 179.0
UGW - 135-140

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 181.0 - Time for me to incorporate daily walking. Goal moving forward, at least 30 minutes of walking. I need a nudge to lose some weight.
06/13 - Did not weigh in
06/14 - Did not weigh in
06/15 - 180.6 - Trying to be really good, my boys are home from college so I have to make sure to make smarter food choices and get enough sleep. Summer sometimes feels like one long weekend to me. Weekends are my weakness!
06/16 - 180.4 - I'll take it. Start of the week, I will walk 3-4 days for at least 30 min. I'm off work and I shouldn't be too tired to achieve.
06/17 - Did not weight in
06/18 - 180 - I did walk yesterday (6/17) and tried to be very careful with my food choices. Water intake could be better.

@amn0619 If you feel you must take a break from tracking, at least continue to ✅ in with us daily, please.

OSW: 178 in July of 2018
Rnd 79 EW: 148.7
Goals for next 10 days:
1) to get between 7,500 and 10,000 steps everyday (extremely hard to do sitting at a desk for 8-9 hours a day)
2) do not want to see anything higher than 148.9 on the scale in this round
3) finally see a new low of 145.xxx (lowest weight so far was 3 weeks ago and it was 146.5)


06/12 - 147.7 down another pound from yesterday, but still a little high. TOM is still killing me and I am still bloated. Better than yesterday, but I still feel terrible. My motivation is just not where it needs to be to start this round, but I am trying to push through it and keep going. Hopefully by tomorrow I should be back to normal weight and done with the bloating, cramping, aching feeling. If I can just resist for another day or 2 not to eat fried stuff I will be doing good. That's all I have been craving the last 3 days is anything fried, lol. On track today so far with water/food and I have already done just over 3,000 steps. So hopefully I can get some more in this afternoon.

06/13 - 146.7 still working my way back down. Hopefully tomorrow I will see a new low and drop all the weight I have been holding onto for the last couple of weeks. I have looked back in my notes and noticed that I have 2 really good months of losing after my TOM hits and then I stall or lose very slowly anywhere from 4-8 weeks until it comes again. Because of the birth control that I am on I only have a period once every 3-4 months. It gets frustrating during that last part, but I am not willing to change my birth control or get off of it, so I will just have to live with it. When I had more to lose it wasn't so obvious or drastic. I already have 5 children ages 20 years old to 10 years old. So I will stay on my birth control and deal with the consequences. May take me a year to lose the last 10 pounds before I see 138, but I won't have a baby to deal with, lol!

06/14 - 146.1 Went out to dinner last night and took half of my plate home and did not touch the sopapillas. I never do that normally, so win, win! I did have 2 margaritas, but had a ton of water in between and after. It was a nice impromptu date night with the hubby! Hoping to see a 145.xxx on that scale tomorrow morning. My next milestone on my happy scale is 146.0, so close but not quite there yet, and my personal mini-goal is 145.5. Maybe I can hit both tomorrow! Happy with today though!

06/15 - 146.7 had a slight bump up, but had a piece of pizza and ate the top of another piece. Then I filled up on salad, so not a terrible night, but I could have been better. Going to a comedy show with the hubby tonight, so going to try and keep it to a minimum with my alcohol intake and keep my calories down during the day to save up for dinner tonight.

06/16 - 147.7 up a bit, but I’m ok with that. Had a couple of drinks and dinner out last night before the comedy show. We had a blast and it was a great start to my hubbys fathers day weekend!

06/17 - 148.6 Didn't do great this weekend, but was not terrible either. We ate sandwiches Saturday and Sunday and pizza Friday night, so my carbs were definitely higher than normal. Had a nice bbq yesterday though and just relaxed and watched movies most of the afternoon. Back at work today and ready to start another week. 4 days left and hoping to finally hit 145.xxx this week!

06/18 - 147.3 there goes the carbs from the weekend and our bbq on Sunday. I love steak, but it seems to stick with me for a day or so. Finally reached my step goal and actually passed it yesterday. I completed 12,000 steps and my water/food were good. Should be back to 146.xx tomorrow and 3 days left to see that 145! I am trying to make sure I walk 1000 steps every hour no matter what. Today I have 3 meetings, so it may get a little tricky. I am walking into a meeting now and am about 300 steps ahead, we will see what happens the rest of the day.

06/17: 143.0 First weigh in after 6 days of vacation. Really pleased to see weight drop from the end of round 79, even though we were eating out everyday for all meals and exercise limited to walking on beach and in town! Felt comfortable wearing a bathing suit for the first time in a couple of years. Tried to make healthy meal choices (lots of salads and fresh seafood), but did enjoy the fresh linguine with shrimp scampi with a bread stick as a cheat day the other night! Also I had entered in a MFP 5-week prediction for Monday, which predicted 146, and I am 3 pounds below that goal! (not sure how they make the prediction, but more conservative than Pacer's predictions, so will enjoy the mini-success!). Back to the gym this morning to expend the saved up energy form last week - step aerobics and weight machines for legs; stayed on for the spin class so lots of cardio today!

06/18: 142.5 Wonderful to see a half pound drop! Since tracking I often find that I actually gain after doing a heavy leg workout, plus we had a duck bolognese sauce with penne and smoked mozzarella for dinner with wine so was afraid that I might have more water retention today. (Calories were all within limits, but actually lower on protein for the day). I had decreased the weights on the leg press since I had been out for a week and also wanted to try to tweak the settings to see if changing the angles would help lead to a better position as I do want to avoid putting to much stress on my knees. Felt fine this morning, so think the lower weight likely helped with avoiding the water retention gain! Today was upper body weights, a latin dance class that is just not working for getting my heart rate up, so may need to explore another option, and then yoga which helped with stretching after the weights. Still need to get some ab work in as I have skipped that the last several days... Salmon poke bowl for lunch (guesstimating calories) and probably will cook out veggie burgers on the Green Egg (Beyond Meat) for dinner with a salad. Slowly coming to grips with fact that I can have pasta and bread and successfully lose weight - loving it!

OSW 199 (June 15 2018)
Female, 5' 4 1/2 " age 53

Hi. My name is Trina. I started this challenge round 54, was pretty consistent, and then got lost somewhere mid Round 74. The scale slowed down a bit, but now I think I am on the move again. I am now 6-8 pounds till goal weight, and hoping to get there in the next couple of months. Trying to keep focused on losing, while also looking ahead to maintenance. I've been feeling great, and feeling great exercising, and not feeling food restricted, so all of those things are good! Let's all have a wonderful 10 days of making great choices!!

OSW 199 (June 15 2018)

MINI GOALS
1/31 149 -- (149 first time on 1/30...but bouncing Goal Met 2/3! )
2/28 145 -- Healthy BMI...I believe. But some of the calculators say 140 or 143 Goal Met 3/4! )
3/15 141.5 (0.5 lbs below my weight watchers lifetime member weight, pretty much haven't weighed this, since I achieved lifetime status 11 years ago! )
3/31 141 Goal Met 4/1!
4/30 137 Goal Met 6/12!
5/31 135 Saw this number first time 6/7, again 6/12....now to make it stick!
6/30 133
7/31 131 -- Final goal weight (Maintain 128-133)


Goals--
Carbs < 40-
Steps/day > 12000
Exercise/walk 6 of 7 days/week

CW 137.5 (This was an up bounce....so I'm going for a more agressive loss)
RGW < 135

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 135 -- Continuing the bouncing. Today in a good way! Diagnosed with shingles yesterday. Luckily they are receding, and not affecting my energy levels. But still irritating!
06/13 134.5 -- New low! I've been really good with water, exercise, and keeping the carbs good!

06/14 134.5 Wow! That number stuck around for another day! 5 mile walk yesterday and hour of zumba. Ate well!
06/15 135.5 Pretty happy with this. We went out for Chinese food last night. I skipped the rice, but not surprised that the sodium or whatever would make it bump up.
06/16 134.5 Yes. Yesterday's bump up is gone! Did zumba, and gardening yesterday. Ate well!
06/17 136.5 Ate over yesterday, but only by about 500 calories, X so not going to freak out. No gym, short walk. About 9000 steps.
06/18 136 Jury duty yesterday. Managed to get steps in by walking from my husband's work to the courthouse and back. Did not get picked for the panel, but I'm ok with that as it was for a pain&suffering civil suit. Besides, it's nice to be done. Glad I came down a bit. But striving for that 134 again! Probably need to leave that leftover coffee cake alone and choose either ice cream OR brownie, not both!
