06/18 - 193.3 - I tracked my food and my weight yesterday. I was short on water but I’ll try again today. I stayed on track with healthy food for the most part yesterday. Lately, I’ve had an all or nothing attitude. So if I mess up during the day, I’ll say screw it and eat with reckless abandon. That’s what got me into this mess. Yesterday I ate a super sugary snack, but I logged it and ate healthy eating for the rest of the day. It’s the little victories that add up.
06/19 - 193.3 - I didn’t meet my goals today, but I was mindful about my choices. I’ll try again today. I am planning to run and take the dogs for a walk today so that should help.

06/19 - 154.8 - Just not feeling it... Mental health got me so bad I barely could eat yesterday and still felt like puking it all back up. Going to try for more food today without pushing my body and mind too far. Also, I always seem to drop RIGHT before TOM and it will be here any day so that may be another reason for the significant drop

Previous day's comments for R8006/12 - I forgot... I think I'm still half asleep, honestly (: I won't get to weigh in for the next handful of days (MAYBE Monday) so hopefully I can keep myself in check. Feeling fat and bloated today but going to keep going strong and know its just one day.
06/13 - At boyfriends. We stayed up until about midnight talking because he was waiting for meds to kick in (played softball and he's injured like me so real sore. Plus got bruised ribs from a collision). We discussed weight. He's on board with helping me find and keeping me accountable for more workouts. The gym at work has a rowing machine which I can do with my injuries with little to no impact (other than epic soreness) so I think on days I'm not rushed to get to baseball games in time, I'll either go during lunch or after work. I think he also is okay with me cutting down portions or making something slightly different to eat to help me out nutritionally. Wins! I feel so much more confident that I can break this plateau of 155-ish with his support (I hovered at 155 for 2 years after my surgery so I think its a happy place for my body since I can't work out like I used to) but I know I've been down to 145 and I still have some to lose at that weight so maybe, just maybe, I can hit 140 or below with his help. Plus, when he has the kids, I get out and be active with them as much as I can.

06/17 - Very little water, plenty of beer, a double kids birthday (1 and 3 year old) and a father's day bbq. So not as bad as I thought and hopefully will drop when I'm hydrated better
06/18 - Bad mental health day today. Woke up crying don't know why. Stayed at boyfriends since baseball game and we went out to dinner after. Today is his birthday, was maybe going to make the chicken he likes (his kids don't like the crunchy cheese on top) but he doesn't have the kids this week. Definitely not enough water yesterday but improvement from the weekend.

@nikki062181 I am back! It has been a long time since I have done this challenge. I was 17lbs from my goal weight and have since gained 17 additional pounds. The truth?! Life got in the way. I'm constantly busy and just started eating out more and exercising less. Time to reel it back in.
GOALS FOR THE WEEK!
First step: Track calories
Second step: Measure my portions
Third step: Cut out carbonated beverages
Fourth step: Cut out too many sweets
5th step: Push water!!!!
OSW: 232 lbs
CSW: 159 lbs
CGW: 155 - 156 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs
Here is to wishing I can get down to 153 - 155 in these 10 days. 🙏
6/12: 159 Did not drink enough and was way under my calorie intake.
6/13: 157 Did not drink enough and was way under my calorie intake (been battling with altitude sickness)
6/14: 154.8 😮 Met my calorie goal but my macros were off. I ate too many carbs due to having chicken pizza for dinner. I did consume 34 ounces of water, drank no carbonated beverages, and had no candy either
6/15: 154.6 I nailed my macros yesterday! 🥳 I pushed pushed myself and drank 51 ounces of water. 😯 I know I'll be living in the bathroom today. I'm going to continue to push water but am bumping it up to 3.5 bottles of water today so I can get in 60 ounces. I swept my entire house and did more laundry yesterday.
6/16 153.8 🥰 I'm getting there. I'm feeling like doing a little dance today! I only completed 2.5 bottles yesterday. I was short by 1 whole bottle. So, let us hope I will do better today. Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's and single Mom's out there!
6/17: 156.6 😭 I was right! I made healthy choices yesterday, but the sodium intake on that meal out killed me! I'm so sad. I will need to push the water today for sure. I'm also going to start on some some smoothies today and B12 supplements. 🤞
6/18: 155 Whew! 😜 I pushed some water yesterday and boy did it work to help get rid of some of that sodium. It was so hard to eat that stuff. 🤢🤮
6/19: 155 Holding steady. I did not push enough liquid yesterday. However, I made cauliflower mash last night for the first time, and that was awesome! My sons and husband even liked it, and they cannot stand cauliflower. SCORE!14 -
RD80 Goal: -2lbs
This is my 4th consecutive round, My goal this round is to say good bye to the 70's forever. I have no desire to ever see that number on a scale again.
06/12 270.6
06/13 269.0 ohhhhh myyyyyyyyyyy sixties finally, wow gotta buckle down to keep that 70 away. Weekends are my weakness, actually if I can stay even from sat am thru mon am I will call it a win.
06/14 268.4 whooooo trying to distance myself from that 70 number. The weekends are always a challenge and I plan to really work on my weekend eating.

06/18
06/19 271.0 on the struggle bus, I think I need a low low sodium diet, I retain water like crazy with big weight fluctuations day to day. Pretty bummed. I feel like the only way I can lose and keep off wt is to starve myself which always blows up in the end. Staying motivated gets harder with every passing day.

CW: 170.00
GW: 128
This round my goal is to reach 167.00 and move each day.
6/12 – 170.8 – Not enough water yesterday and lots of salt. Need to move up the intake of water and get a walk in.
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 – Ughhh 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.

Hi I’m Karen.
USW-187 Sept. 2018
UGW-135
Goal this round-159 And no alcohol or junk food during the week.
6/17-162-I finally joined back in after a lot of out of town trips here and there. My husband is glad I’m home for a while.
6/18-162-Whew! Still holding. Family & food and lunch out....I’ll walk in the morning & drink lots of water.
6/19-160-Lunch out was canceled and that was OK. I’ve been getting my 7 mile walks in and swimming too.11 -

Round 79 -2.8 pounds 327.8-325.0
RSW 325.0
06/12 324.6 I’m hopeful that the downward trend continues.
06/13 324.4 Still going down and it flashed 323.8 for a second, so maybe it’s telling me that tomorrow will bring another new low. I’m hopeful of seeing a 60 pound loss this round or early next.
06/14 325.2 I’m trying not to be very frustrated. I know that this is inflammation/water weight because my back and leg are hurting a lot today.
06/15 326.2 I’m not surprised as I know it’s from sodium and not from over eating. I’m beginning to feel like a broken record though. I’m trying to focus on how much I’ve lost so far and how much more that I’ve been doing. My nsv is that I’m starting to hit a consistent 3000 steps a day and I’m able to take my dog on short walks several times a day.
06/16 325.2 That’s the right direction and hopefully the first of several drops. With all the aches I had when I got up I had prepared myself for a gain. I got in an early walk and I hope that the weather will be good enough for one or two more.
06/17 323.4 I cannot say how happy I was to see a new low. Hopefully I’m done with the bouncing around and I’ll keep seeing losses. My nsv yesterday was 6k steps. That’s double my goal and 12x the steps I was getting back when I started this journey.
06/18 323.2 Any loss is a good loss. My nsv was hitting 7k steps yesterday.
06/19 323.4 Wrong way... I’m taking a rest day today in hopes I’ll drop some water weight from muscle repair. My nsv yesterday was hitting 8k steps.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 159.8
I had a great day yesterday - calories & macros on target, a 5-mile walk, some gardening. Hoping for more of the same today.
06/13 - 159.4
Busy morning - we had 4 beautiful trees planted and some other yard work done, then went out for pho. I had a vegetarian bun tofu plus a spring roll, so not too badly off track.
06/14 - 160.4
Soduim from the Vietnamese lunch yesterday. OK, and a few extra calories later in the day. And not much exercise, as I was home for the tree delivery in the morning and it rained all afternoon. But it's bright and sunny today and I plan to take a nice long walk and do some gardening. Have a lovely weekend, all!
06/15 - 158.8
Busy all day yesterday - no time for silly eating. And I did eat responsibly at meals. Who's a good girl? ;-) I have some painting to do today -- boards for garden & watercolor pup portrait -- so that will keep me from mindless munching, too. If I can re-break that habit, I can continue to behave myself. Enjoy your Saturday!

Good weekend, although rainy. I'm hoping the landscaper will finish tilling topsoil into my new flower beds today so I can plant my (mostly) perennials. And, if the rain holds off, I'm aiming for a long walk. Have a lovely!
06/18 - 158.4
Beautiful morning here, bright and warm and shiny. I have to run an errand to a part of town I don't go to often, so I'm planning a walk at the lovely park up there. Plus the landscaper got the soil into my new bed, thought he couldn't till it because it was too wet Maybe he'll be able to this afternoon - fingers crossed! I'm itching to get my hands in the dirt! I hope you have lovely weather wherever you are, too.
06/19 - 158.4
Another beautiful morning here, and I'm still waiting for the guys to till my new garden beds. Frustrating. I'm about ready to just dig the topsoil in myself - it would be slow, but at least I'd feel like something was happening. Sigh. I hate being at the mercy of someone who fails to follow through. Or maybe this is yet another lesson in patience? But I want to get my plants in the ground! Anyway....Off now for a walk and a few errands. Have a beautiful day, all!

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.)
06/19- 189.6 (Woohoo! Back to the 180's! I made a meat lasagna last night that took forever but was SO worth it. I tried running 12 minutes yesterday doing the slow running method and it worked! I started off bad though since a part of it was uphill. I did slow for 1.5 minutes then 1.25 minutes and then after I did about 5.25 minutes all together and finished off the last 4 together. It's a lot better than my 1.5 minute out of breath intervals. I was not out of breath but my legs were on fire!)

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.

June 12 - 178.2 - Starting back on this round after completely missing the last 10 days. Weight is up a bit due to lack of exercise and having too many snacky type events happening. Hopefully will get it down another 3 or 4 pounds by end of June.
June 13 - 177.6 - Better day yesterday than I've had for a while. I need to keep it up.
June 14 - 177.2 - Another good day yesterday. I'm a bit worried about today because I'm going to have company all day.
June 15 - 177 - not a good day yesterday for healthy eating at all. Hopefully today is better.
June 16 - 175.4 - these good days are paying off.
June 17 - No scale
June 18 - 177.6 - Had too much junk food late at night the last couple of days.
June 19 - 176.2 - Celebrated finally getting a job offer by having a cheeseburger, fries and coke from A&W! I am not regretting it.

===============================
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 145.5 - Been hitting 144 and 143 the last rd (143 2x and that's my new low)
06/13 145.2 - rough rough day - managed to stay under cal goal, but that's about the only positive.
06/14 145.4 - Walked at work for lunch a couple of miles and rode 2 horses when I got home. Did a decent job nutritionally. Need to get back on track with pushups & plants. Been working to stay under 1200 cal day and bumped it up to 1500 - I don't think losing 2 lbs a week is feasible when you're down to about the last 10. I think my metabolism needs a boost to get moving so I'm going to try 1500-1600 cal daily until July.
06/15 146.4 - Walked 8.5 miles, on my feet most of the day. Did decent foodwise.
06/16 146 - Lots of walking all morning, and then I freakin stress ate all afternoon. Queso & chips, cheeseburger, dip, Big order of McDonald's fries, beer - you name it, I ate lots of it.
06/17 148 - YIKES!! Drinking water & green tea - miserably bloated
06/18 145.6 - I still feel bloated, but at least better this morning. Ate fairly healthy yesterday, got in about 3 miles walking. I'm cautiously optimistic that tomorrow's weigh in should be less.
06/19 146.4 - Jokes on me, most awful PMS I've had in ages. I did well with food yesterday and got in lots of walking. Miserable today - hugely bloated, hungry, cramps, tired, cranky...ugh! I did get one horse riden before work and will do a couple miles at lunch. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

6/12 NS Still on the road until tomorrow night. I walked at lunch yesterday and after work. Ended up with 5.44 miles. I really wish I would have gone the other .06 miles to land at 5.5 but too late now. Found two excellent restaurants yesterday. Stayed under on calories but of course, being on the road over on sodium. Going to the gym tonight for weights. Driving home tomorrow, I don't think I'll stop to walk. I have walked for 7 days in a row. Time for a break. I'm fighting so hard to get into the 160s. I'll do it this round and I hope for the rest of my life.
6/13 NS Driving home today. I was good calorie wise yesterday, went to the gym last night then came back to the hotel and crashed by 10:00 pm. It's a beautiful day so I know I wasn't going to walk but I might stop for a short maybe a thirty-minute walk. It's super sunny but chilly for June, the best walking weather. I think I'll not walk tomorrow. I'll be spending the day working and with the BF with no time for walking. I already packed my walking shoes but the more I think about it and share with you guys I'm going to stop. Today will be a better day to walk than tomorrow.
6/14 169.4 I have tried posting this several times and it hasn't been working. I'm happy with this number after not seeing a scale for 3 days. I'm down .9 pounds since the last time I weighed (I think that weight was high and this one is "right"). Below is a pic from yesterday's short walk. Happy Friday. It let me post but didn't let me add the pic. It said, "You are not allowed to upload files in this category". Weird, I've posted pics before.
6/15 169.5 No biggie. Father's Day Celebration #1 lunch today. It should be easy, it's at a restaurant where I know I have options. After lunch, a graduation party for a friend's son - this could be dangerous. Snacky food can be my nemesis. We'll see. No time to walk today or tomorrow. Father's Day weekend is a long and stressful one for me.
6/16 171.1 Spicy Almonds is all I can really say. Lunch with my Dad is an unknown. Usually, we go to one of the two restaurants in my small home town he likes, neither has good options. No time to walk today, unless I can leave Dad's at a decent time.
6/17 171.1 Stupid water retention. I didn't eat two pounds worth of almonds on Saturday, this is not actual weight. I did not leave my Dad's until after 8:00 then I had an hour drive home. No walking 3 days in a row. I'm getting itchy, I need to hit the dusty trail. Well not so dusty in the rainy spring but you get the idea. I'll be drinking about 2 gallons of water to get rid of the sodium and excess weight.
6/18 171.4 All that water did not help. I walked 3.5 miles last night, was under calorie goal and drank 9 glasses of water. It was great to get on the trail. I stopped to tie my shoe and found a tiny frog. I'm driving to StL today and coming back to KC tomorrow. I should do weights tonight but if the river is down I'll walk instead.
6/19 NS I'll have a scale tomorrow. I stayed under calorie goal by almost 300 calories and that did not include exercise. I just wasn't hungry for some reason. I stopped at a State Park I haven't visited before. It's a rough trail but those are the most fun. You don't beat any speed records but you see cool stuff. I did not get enough water, for some reason I'm fine sitting in my office drinking water but if I'm on the road I want tea. I'm working here until noonish than hitting the road again. I think I'll try my luck on the Katy Trail this afternoon.

06/11 …..195.9 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/12 …..195.9 ….. 3 Travel days out of 10 this round. My food weakness is in traveling. UGG. I’m hoping to NOT go hog wild on these days and keep my nose in the trough a little too much! Yesterday was a good day again. Yesterday’s stats: 1369 Calories In / 2334 Calories Out. 29 Net Carbs. 10,030 Total Steps & 4.24 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 34 minutes. No change in the unexpected weight gain. Patience is truly a virtue. Welcome to all the newbies & good luck everyone on this round. Thanks to @GrandmaJackie for providing this lovely spot where lives are changing everyday!
06/13 …..195.7 ….. Travel starts today.
06/14 …..xxxxx ….. Travel no weigh. Reading posts. Will be home this evening.
06/15 …..198.6 ….. Okay, so today I have reacquainted myself this morning with the process of fat adaption. I have read a few articles to refresh my (often brain-fogged) memory and I am ready to go! Here are the articles I’ve read this morning. Page 1: https://perfectketo.com/fat-adapted/ and Page 2 which is a link within page 1 https://perfectketo.com/what-is-the-ketogenic-diet/. There is certainly a lot more out there but all I have time for this morning. Youtube will be my best friend later tonight and I think I will rewatch the long video of butter bob “Butter makes your pants fall off” which I remember as being the greatest motivator for me when I first started my journey to better T2D numbers, weight loss & overall health. Yesterdays stats on my fitbit showed 13,785 Steps (mostly shopping with fitbit on my shoe). 5.83 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit step hours achieved while stopping during travel . I slept 6 hours & 17 minutes last night which is a lot for me.
06/16 …..198.1 ….. Yesterdays stats: 1358 Calories In / 2317 Calories Out. 19 Net Carbs. 10,437 Total Steps & 4.42 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 4 hours & 22 minutes & woke up refreshed.
06/17 …..198.4 ….. Travel today & tomorrow. I need to get the next two travel days behind me in order to be successful in my fat adaption plan. It is easier to do it when I’m not on the road. Who starts a diet on Thanksgiving morning, right? Yesterday’s stats: 2282 Calories In / 2825 Calories Out. 119 Net Carbs in goodies/sweets & my Keto Egg Roll in a bowl dinner. 15,514 Total Steps & 6.56 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 5 hours & 34 minutes. Lots of movement with the spring cleaning work but not enough water. I know I badly need the fat adaption when I crave the sweets like I am. When adapted, my cravings and my hunger are so much more under control, and even goes away . It is so prevalent that I will absolutely know when I am adapted. I will be mindful the next two days as much as I can, but I look forward to being at home for a stretch and climbing back on my wagon.
06/18 …..xxxxx ….. Travel. Yesterdays fitbit stats: 2631 Calories burned. 10,388 Total Steps & 4.4 Total Miles. 8/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 13 minutes. Very nice for me! I will be home sometime this evening. Have a great Tuesday everyone.
06/19 …..198.7 ….. Home at last! I am very worried about the scale as things often show up a few days later. Day one of travel I did pretty good sticking mostly to breakfast foods in my travels. Day 2, not so much! Fat adaption begins today as (barring emergencies with personal or business) I will be home for a bit of a stretch. I couldn’t wait for this day/time as I need it so badly! Yesterdays stats according to fitbit: 2446 Calories Out. 10,223 Total Steps & 4.33 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 5 hours & 18 minutes. I had a short 11 minute walk when I got home last night (before dark). I managed to get in my hourly steps even during travel so that was a bit of stopping but it felt good. Today is a new day!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

6/17 122.5 One meal yesterday. Steak, asparagus, roasted potato salad with bacon, mushrooms sautéed in wine and garlic. I only ate 2 small potato chunks and about 1 teaspoon of German chocolate cake crumbs. I’m amazed that that stuff no longer tastes good to me.
6/18 122.5 Water fitness in the morning and met Amy at the gym and walked for 1 hour. My leg feels good this morning. Dinner tonight with the neighbors. Burgers, mock potato salad, corn on the cob for the non-ketoers, and Keto dessert for all.
6/19 123.5 Oops, neighbor bought hamburger but forgot to grab that bag when she left the store! So hot dogs instead. Fresh veggies instead of mock potato salad. Glad I took a large tossed salad. I have plenty left for lunch today at Art Quilts then Community bingo tonight!8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 Starting weight 167.2 lbs - walked to work and back home for a total of about 75 minutes - my food intake wasn't great - lacto vegetarian till June 17th so my choices at an Italian restaurant weren't great. Downhill from there.
06/13 - And here's the result. Today's weight: 167.8 lbs - raining today so my cardio won't be great. Will do some weights at home instead. Pray God I stay on track food-wise today!
06/14 - 166.6 lbs
06/15 - 166.3 lbs
06/16 - 168.8 lbs - I don't know what the hell happened. So confused. Maybe sodium intake? Worked in the back yard gardening for a number of hours so I wasn't sedentary.
06/17 - 168.7 lbs - maybe i'm not done peeing out the salt or whatever. I didn't eat poorly and walked a fair bit.
06/18 - 166.8 lbs - okay closer to last week. It's time to not get thrown off my the wonky numbers in the middle of this stretch and keep the faith. Keep eating well. Keep moving. Keep your eyes on the prize. Let's go!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 203 - Woohoo for going down 2lbs!! Not sure what caused it and it could be water weight. I had my leftover Hawaiian chicken bowl for lunch yesterday, mainly chicken and veggies, and one egg roll. For dinner I had Wingstop, but only like 4-5 dry wings (not including a couple boneless ) Slowly trying to drink more water again. Having a salad for lunch today and have a couple healthy snacks so I don't feel too hungry. Hope to continue keeping my number down!
06/13 - 202.8 - Made a typo yesterday, was supposed to be 203 not 202. Happy my number is still slowly going down though! Had a salad for lunch yesterday, but ended up having a burger and chili fries for dinner. I always do really good for lunch and get wild with dinner. Also been in a funk for the past few days. My friend who moved without telling me has been cold towards me and really bitter about the fact that I was out of town these past couple weekends. I've been in pain both weekends, going to be blowing all my money on my teeth and a speeding ticket I got a couple months ago, things are far from vacation mode for me and being given the cold shoulder like this is just adding to my anxiety, stress and making me feel really depressed and alone. I'm glad I can at least vent to strangers on the internet Hope everyone is having an awesome day and kicking this challenges *kitten*!
06/14 - 202.6 - Mango Cilantro salad for lunch and snacked in the morning on crackers and pork jerky. Had a sushi bowl for dinner instead of a teriyaki bowl and got half rice and half veggies instead of full rice. Should have done full veggies, but was craving the rice. Family flew in from Canada last night and they were up late. We made them sandwiches and I had a little bread with cucumber and meat, but that's it. This morning I had a Starbucks bagel (way too many carbs) but needed to have something to keep me full and I didn't have time to pack a snack. Won't be weighing in tomorrow or Sunday morning because I will be at my boyfriends with his lieing scale, so hope this weekend will be good to me
06/15 - X - No weigh in, wasn't home.
06/16 - 202.5 - Weighed in when I got home in the mid-morning. Was surprised I went down a tiny bit after Disneyland. I walked a decent amount, but also snacked on a lot of stuff. I still portioned dinner and stuck with either water or diet coke.
06/17 - 203.1 - I was prepared for it to go up after Father's Day. I had half of a mini apple with peanut butter and half of my iced coffee and just water. We went to Morongo's buffet for Father's Day and the line was insane. I munch on some things, nothing too heavy and we did some walking. I got hungry at night and just stood ate some sandwich meat in the kitchen. I'm feeling pretty good about my weigh-in for tomorrow though
06/18 - 202.8 - Happy to be going back down a little. I was in a LOT of pain yesterday, not sure if it's IBS or a cyst in my ovaries (I've had this pain before a few times) but I was at work and couldn't even move. Trying to be cautious with my food. I had an Asian salad yesterday, think the cabbage made me sick, and had Armenian food for dinner. Having a different salad for lunch today with some crackers. I could thankfully move more today and feel better. This pain usually goes away in an hour, but this one lasted from 3pm yesterday until now.
My goal weight for this round is 201, still think it's manageable and hope to get there in the next couple days.
06/19 - 202.8 - I'm convinced my scale is broken. It keeps being sassy and told me 3 different weights, but I'm just going to stick with yesterday's weight since that was one of the numbers it said. Had salad for lunch yesterday and Wingstop for dinner, but didn't have much really. 3 wings (dry seasoned and a couple boneless wings, also dry seasoned. I think my mess up were those mini chip bags I got to snack on at work when I'm hungry, but I ended up having 4 of them I did force myself to have 2 water bottles yesterday (yay!) Trying to portion things out today and push myself to 3 water bottles.

I’m 51 years old, female, 5’7 and started getting serious on MFP recently. I’m in the midst of a couch to 5K program and really enjoying it.
MFP starting weight: 186 (May 2019)
Round 79: - .6 pounds
Round 80 starting weight: 181.8
Goal weight, eventually: 150
Goal this round: increase endurance while running. I’d love to be in the 170s by the end of this round.
6/12…183. Had an impromptu gathering with friends at the house last night, which upended my careful tracking somewhat, but I weighed in this morning nonetheless. No gym today as I’ve run/walked several days in a row and figure I need a rest day.
6/13…181.0 I finished day 2, week 7 of my couch to 5K program and am feeling good; that’s a total of 20 minutes of running. Today I was able to run/walk the three miles in 40 minutes, which had been a small goal of mine. I’ve got the 170s in sight.
6/14…179.6 Ha! This is after 50 minutes on the treadmill first thing in the morning. I did yesterday’s couch to 5 K workout over again, as it was fairly hard. I broke yesterday’s personal best record by about 40 seconds, so a new personal best of three miles in 40.04. I’ll take a rest day tomorrow, or just walk with no running. I’ve also been close or just slightly over on my calories every day lately and I’ve kept up with my water intake. Whoop!
6/15…Did not weigh. Two words: piz-za. Yes, I know it’s really one word. I ate two words worth. I’m sure I’m chock full of sodium.
6/16…Did not weigh. Woke up feeling an utter lack of energy, possibly because it’s so hot outside. Dragged myself to the gym in the evening, forced myself to do my day 3, week seven run/walk and, lo and behold, I crushed it.
6/17…179.8 This is not too bad after the drinking and eating out hijinks of the weekend. Ran/walked week 8, day 1 of the couch to 5K program. Ran first thing in the morning and did fine.
6/18…180.2 Today’s a non-gym day. Finished yesterday with a big calorie deficit; just wasn’t real hungry but made reasonable choices.
6/19…180.2 The gym’s closed because of roof repairs so I headed to the high school track. Whoa. The humidity killed me and I just did 21 minutes of run/walk. A little dispiriting after all my feel-good success of late, though I knew running outside would be different. (I do run on the treadmill with a one percent incline.) I may go out again in the evening and make up for the “lost” time.

Day-Weight-Comment
06/12--207.2 Had a great day yesterday... felt in control with my eating. PT today.
06/13--207.4 Went to PT yesterday and he gave me the ok to do my normal weightlifting!!! I haven't talked to him about running, but when I go see him tomorrow I will ask.
06/14--206.3 The loss today is a reflection of me getting my head back in the game. Last round I wasn't as focused and the scale showed a temporary increase, but now that I'm more in control of my eating and I'm back to exercising more the water weight is almost gone and I'm heading back in the right direction. PT today and working out.
06/15--206.1 PT gave me the go ahead to do all my normal weightlifting and to start running...I am so excited!!! I am supposed to start slow, running 1 mile at a time for the first week, but I am glad to be able to run again after almost 1 month of no running. Right after PT I went to the gym and did my weightlifting and it felt great. I may go out for a run today, but I will see how my hip feels after yesterday's workout. Going to work on getting my water in today.
06/16--206.1 Hip felt sore when I woke up yesterday so I didn't run yesterday and just took it easy. Success yesterday was getting my water in and limiting my snacking. Went out for a long walk with the dog this morning and then going to the hairdresser later this morning.
06/17--205.6 I had a late lunch and I wasn't hungry when my husband made dinner. So instead of just eating dinner because it was there I didn't eat it. Instead I had a couple of snacks throughout the evening, including a whole pint of strawberries, and only snacked when I was hungry. I didn't get enough water in yesterday, so working on water today.
06/18--205.9 Went out and ran 1 mile yesterday!!! My first run in over 1 month since my hip injury and so far the hip is feeling good. Trainer tonight,
06/19--206.7 Had my first full-body workout with my trainer in over month and I am so sore today. Started doing box jumps...who knew jumping could be so technical. Hip feels good today, but not sure if I will go out for a run or not later today.

UGW: 130 (?)
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 139.6 lbs: no scale movement from yesterday. That's ok, the scale moved a lot last week and I knew it wouldn't last. Yesterday I ate pretty well, way too many eggs though and I'm switching out the Gatorade for Pedialite from now on (only used when I work out in the sun for a couple hours). Also took my measurements yesterday. Figured I'd track the inches since the scale isn't always kind.
06/13 - 138.8 lbs
06/14 - 138.6 lbs: played 6 hours of pickleball yesterday and was totally exhausted but not really hungry after all that time in the sun. Only slept 4 hours, not for lack of trying, and thought the scale would go up because of it. Might need a nap today.
06/15 - 139.2 lbs: there's the gain I expected from lack of sleep the night before. I really need my 8 hrs of sleep, can barely function without it. Today was a solid 3 hours of pickleball play in the sun and a salad for lunch (plus a rewarding hard cider). Planning a protein smoothie for dinner and a good long sleep tonight. Looking forward to the scale going back down tomorrow.
06/16 - 140.4 lbs: barely ate yesterday and worked out a ton. Not sure why the scale went up except TOM "might" be around the corner. It's not a sure thing anymore but I do have a pimple on my chin - a sure sign...
06/17 - 140.2 lbs: glad to see this is moving in the right direction. Played another 3 hours in the sun yesterday and tried to make good food choices but it was Father's Day and we had a few splurges - eggplant parmesan, yum! That's ok, back on track this morning.
06/18 - 139.2 lbs: ate really well yesterday, hard to do when I don't work out. It is TOM, feeling bloated. Going to run around a bunch today, I'm sure that'll help.
06/19 - 138.4 lbs: played a couple hours of p-ball yesterday and kept on track with healthy eating. Glad the scale came back down. Still 1.4 lbs to go to meet the round goal, probably not going to make it but that's ok. Really eye opening to weigh and check in every day and see the ups and downs.
