TOM arrived. I'm on birth control for cramps, hormonal acne, and irregular periods. Works WONDERS. But today, as soon as TOM started (about 30 minutes ago), I've been DYING of cramps.
*I used to get such debilitating cramps I couldn't even stand or walk. These aren't that bad, but its making me want to curl up and cry.
I'm at work. Closest store is about 20 miles away. I took some excedrin since it's all I have here. I can't leave work for another 7.5 hours. Any suggestions on how to cope?! I don't know who else to ask
I've heard doing crunches helps with cramps. Can't hurt to try it.6 -
Hi I’m Karen.

6/19-160-Lunch out was canceled and that was OK. I’ve been getting my 7 mile walks in and swimming too.
6 /20-162-salty food....I got my big walk in and went to yoga, so I don’t care...it’ll go back down. I’m off to mow weeds.10 -

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!)
06/20- 188.4 (A brand new low for me! Finally lost all the TOM weight and more. I did a Power Circuit gym class last night that was amazing and I had Chinese chicken salad for dinner last night.)
06/21-12 -
@CamandJarvis - It's tough having bad cramps at work. I've been there too. I've found that rubbing the small of my back over the course of a few minutes will help the pain. Can you take laps around the office? Walking helps, too.5

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.
06/20 - 203 - I keep yoyoing around this weight. Shouldn't have had the Costco hot dog for dinner last night. Everything else I ate was mostly healthy. I want to go to the gym, or at least get more steps in, but I've been feeling nauseated when I leave work and by the time I get home I feel crappy

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.
06/19 - 146.1 back down to last Friday's weigh-in. Did 11,500 steps yesterday and on track for today so far. Trend weight is down and this should be my lowest 10 day average so far. Just need to sty focused 2 more days and meet my goal this round. 2/10 of a pound away from my goal this round!
06/20 - 147.3 absolutely no reason for the gain and I am kind of frustrated. I really thought I was going to meet my goal today, but obviously I did not. With 1 more day in this round I am going to stay focused and get back down for tomorrows final weigh-in hopefully. I just barely made my goal of 10,000 steps yesterday, so I have completed 3 days in a row with my step goal.

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 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. I may go out again in the evening and make up for the “lost” time.
6/20…179 Ran outside again, earlier this time, and boy it was still tough. Ran 13 minutes straight, but only managed to run a couple more minutes after the walk interval. Kept walking for a total of 2.3 miles.

@Hakers344 Here is the link for the next round (Round 81). But don't wait! Weigh in tomorrow (or today if it's not too late).
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10750254/just-give-me-10-days-round-81#latest
@1991court Congratulations on ONEDERLAND!!! Keep up the momentum! I need the inspiration you are giving me!
@shunggie How is your friend doing? I hope he is doing better. I am so glad to see you are still focusing on your own health too, in light of all you've been through lately.4 -
@StatChicBayes Are you doing Keto/LCHF? Carbs are a limit - protein is your goal - and fat is used to keep you satisfied. Don’t go over your carb limit and if you don’t need the fat for satiety, don’t eat it. Wish I had understood that when I started 23 months ago, I probably would have lost faster. Trying to be helpful,, not critical. 😘
@amn0619 Happy birthday! It’s our granddaughter’s too!3 -
@deepwoodslady Thank you for asking. He's doing much better. They moved him to a rehab center yesterday. They are going to be doing 3 hours of PT a day. I started back on the health track when my boyfriend was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (cancer) 18 months ago. I had let my weight creep back up after losing 125 pounds several years ago. When he got sick he was fighting so hard just to live. I did a little self-examination and wasn't happy. He was fighting and I was sitting on my ever-widening bottom. It's the same with Mark. When he was first in the hospital and I went out there... he was fighting. What good does it do me to feel sorry for myself and stop fighting when it's a lot easier for me than for them. I'm just glad they weren't both sick at the same time. I probably would not have been able to deal with it.
TMI probably but that's my thought process trying to stay focused. Basically, I don't have an excuse not to fight. I have MS and know what the healthier I am the better I can fight when I have attacks.5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
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!
06/20 …..198.1 ….. Yes, yes, yes!!! Woo Hoo! I’m typing my weight in red again due to a deficit!!!! Yes!!!! Overjoyed here! My cravings were horrendous last night, nothing seemed to help so I just accepted the suffering and it payed off. Stayed to plan but I still need to drink more water. I am still busy with the kitchen reno & the cabin emergencies (yes, more have appeared), so I have not had time for dedicated exercise, but I’ve tried to fit in a small continual walk around the property daily at least. Yesterdays stats: 1338 Calories In / 2408 Calories Out. 18 Net Carbs. 12,180 Total Steps & 5.17 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Steps Hours. I took a 13 minute walk. I slept 6 hours & 1 minute & I woke up refreshed proving that every minute counts (lol). I am still not Intermittent Fasting. The break will continue until I feel I am fat adapted. I am well on my way. Now, to just stay the course! Clearly I will end this round higher than when I started, but today, in this moment, I know I am on the road to victory. I can feel the dirt under my feet and what a wonderful, sometimes dusty, but courageous & rewarding (and beautiful) path it is that I (we) walk!

@CamandJarvis and @nikki062181 This may not be the popular opinion, but if I am not hungry, I don’t force myself to eat to meet any goals. Yesterday I was around 800 cal by 130 or two in the afternoon and had nothing else except my adult beverages at bingo calorie wise but those were zero carbs so that didn’t affect me as a matter of fact I am down a pound today.

Rejoining . I need some serious accountability.
I’ve been having a lot of back pain lately, I have recurrent herniated discs and I hurt my back about three weeks ago lifting a patient and my back just has. It had time to heal. Another reason to be accountable to myself to get the extra weight off.

Wed 12/06: 162.6: Goals: ✅Well that's a surprise, although I checked my ankles and knee, and they do seem a lot less swollen. Hope this sticks around!
Thu 13/06: 163.5: Goals: ✅Normal fluctuation for me. I often bounce back up after a whoosh down. Although I still think these fluctuations are due to the inflammation in my knee

Tue 11/06: 164.1: Goals: ✅Caught sight of my legs in my full-length mirror, and realised that my left knee and lower leg is swollen. I think it's coming from the inflammation in my knee. I was on my feet for over 4 hours on Monday. Hoping it will go down again if I ease up on the exercise for a few days.Food

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.

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.
06/15
06/16
06/17
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.
06/20 269.0 Feel good about this weigh in, 2 lb swings are nothing unusual, but if i lay off the carbs, salt, etc I can get lined out pretty quick. Hope to maintain this into the last day and look forward to the next round.

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!
06/19: 142.9 slight bump up. total calories right at limit, but went over on fat and under on carbs/protein (about split). Was craving salt and finished the last bit of tortilla trips from our trip, but at least they are no longer around to tempt me so will be good the rest of the week! Expect the bump will even out, but not sure I'll make the 10 day goal of losing 2 pounds. Today was a cardio class, weight machines for legs, and then spin class so felt like I had a pretty good work out! My pet peeve at the gym - a man spent the entire time chatting to a friend, while I worked through 4 sets of 12 reps on 4 machines with rests between sets - finally I asked him if I could use the machine to finish my workout as there was only one machine of that type. His reply was "well if no one asks ..." - like it is OK to just park there and gab away! (sorry just had to rant!)
06/20: 142.8 or 141.4 Well weight first thing this morning was 142.8 so at least a tiny drop, which was nice given that yesterday was heavy weight training on leg, plus definitely ate full calorie budget (seared duck breast, burrata and tomato salad with olive oil/balsamic vinegar and greens, plus part of a sweet potato. went over on fat, but fewer carbs and OK on protein. Gym routine was strength training (light weights)/flexibility and step, plus 4 spin intervals for about 30 minutes total. Decided to weigh after I got back and weight was either 141.2 or 141.8 (did not record right away :-) which was great, but likely loss of water. Normally don't weigh in multiple times, but decided to weigh one more time before dinner and weight was 141.4!!!! Hoping that I can keep that for tomorrow and make my 2 pound goal for this round. Challenge will be that we are going to my favorite pizza place for dinner (wonderful thin crust pizza wood fired oven), so will make sure I order a large salad and limit the amount of pizza (a treat!) (may take some pysillium with water now to "fill up" so that I slow down!

Ready for my round 17
OSW 88KG
RSW 68. 6 kg (-19.4 kg) or {- 42.8 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
06/12 68.6kg and a 15 mins run before the sun came up.
06/13 68.6kg which is not a gain. Keeping under calories so just being patient.
06/14 68.8kg blip up for no reason as its all still good. Ill be patient. Early morning starlit run completed.
06/15 68.6kg and it's all still the same.
06/16 68.6kg still. Nothing changed. Going to keep a closer eye on food.
06/17 68.7kg? Did a cold moonlit run at 5am which left me wondering why I cut my hair so short in the middle of winter...
06/18 68.3kg. Finally some movement. I was wondering if the scale was stuck. Strength class yesterday and netball later today.
06/19 68.6kg back here again! Cold wet and windy run but at least I went.
06/20 68..3kg again. Small but in the right direction.
06/21 67.8kg! 💃🏽I finally got that loss. Worth waiting for. Means I have lost over 20kg {44.1 lbs) since January 6th and I am only 10kg away from where I want to be.
Loss this round 0.8kg or 1.8 lbs
Just realised this puts me in the next lb decade! 140s! OK it's 149 but it's still exciting.11 -

***ROUND 79 (my 10th)***
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 139.8 I think I'll bounce back and forth for a bit between 139 and 140 away at the beginning of this round until I drop. The neat thing about doing these rounds is learning your body's patterns.
06/13 140.8 Ha, there it is! Hopefully, back down tomorrow.
06/14 137.6 Liking this! If I don't succumb to the Father's Day treats planned for this weekend (cinnamon rolls and other random junk my husband has requested), maybe I can make it stick.
06/15 137.6 So far, so good! I'm not expecting to drop any more pounds this round, but I'd be thrilled if I end in the 130s!
06/16 134.4 I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'm losing too quickly?! Over 5 lbs in 4 days.
06/17 135.8 Good, I feel like this is evening out. I want to drop real fat, not water, and I know it's impossible to lose pure fat so quickly. That said, I feel way smaller. I really need to take measurements at the end of this round. (CARB CYCLE 1)
06/18 135.6 This feels right to me. Yesterday's lower carb day didn't exactly work out (81 g net instead of 50, oops!), but I *needed* some extra chocolate at the end of the day, so whatevs. (MOVEMENT 1)
06/19 135.6 Hmmm, I keep forgetting my "plan" to have a few lower carb days and higher movement days- yesterday was 3200 steps (a ton for my super sedentary self) and 48 g net carbs, though. But why am I even doing this plateau-buster when I'm having a whoosh week (I made it up, so don't quote me on this so-called plateau-busting strategy)? Despite losing about 5 lbs in this round with a couple days left to go, I am really second-guessing everything because it feels so unpredictable. WHY DOES WEIGHT LOSS HAVE TO BE SUCH A MIND GAME?! (CARB CYCLE 2, MOVEMENT 2)
06/20 134.2 Yesterday was 110 carbs and only 1609 steps soooo obviously not sticking to the plan I created. I think I'll scrap it and try again if/when I plateau. After such a whoosh week, I don't expect to lose much next round!

06/13 - 135.8 10/30 the job has me running around like crazy, came home famished and ate a little too much calories wise.
06/14 - 134.4 11/30 accomplished
06/15 - 134.8 12/30 accomplished
06/16 - 134.6 13/30 accomplished crazy couple of days.
06/17 - 134.4 14/30 accomplished eating habits have not been the greatest, i have been grabbing easy to eat things and every time I plan to pre make meals my boss calls me into work (I live a 5 min walk away from my job so he knows how close I am) this week will be different, no more snacking
06/18 - 134.8 no clue why I gained, everything seemed to be in order yesterday.. unfortunately today was different, gave into the chocolate... 14/30 accomplished
06/19 - 137.8 yep, sounds about right. 15/30 accomplished
6/20 - 135.8 haven't stop working and have had no real full days off. Like I am talking 9-13 hour days and the only "day off" I had I still ended up working for four hours. I should have pre made my meals for the week but i was so tired I passed out for the majority of my "day off". Up early and home late make for some bad food choices. After this weekend is over and I full circle it to my "day off" on Monday i will be forcing myself to make meals for next week. So far, I have managed to keep my weight at bay (because even though I stoped balancing my macro/micro, i am still eating bowls of veggies for dinner...my only concern is my stress chocolate eating....having a couple of chocolate bars or crackers a night) but I am fully aware that my body will eventually get used to the activity and this bad eating habit will really be a problem. I worked too hard for my new body to let it go now. I hope next rounds reflect isn't as disappointing as this round. Anyway, managed to at least stay under calories so 16/30 days accomplished
