@MadisonMolly2017 I had the same problem. My scream moment was jumping up 3lbs overnight. And extra impetus came from how c**p I felt after the blowout on Sunday. I was back on the wagon big time yesterday and today.

These challenges seem to go by so quick sometimes. This round ends on a Sunday so I am going to do my best to be good that weekend. My only goal this round is to see a 144.xx and to get to into a βhealthyβ BMI range. We will see if I can do it, the last round I pretty much just maintained and didnβt ever see that new low I was looking for. So I am ready this round for it!
Round 80: 148.7 - 148.0 (10 day Avg 147.22)
Round 81: 148.0 - 146.5 (10 day Avg 147.87)
Round 82: 146.5 - 146.3 (10 day Avg 146.93)
07/12 - 144.6 A NEW LOW!!!!! I can't believe I hit my goal for this round already. 1.3 pound loss from last week. 1.6 more pounds and I will be out of the over weight category and I will be at the tip top of my maintenance. I will also officially be in the last 5 pounds of my journey. I have stayed strong this whole week and was expecting a loss, but I usually lose a half a pound at a time, so if I see an uptick tomorrow I would not be surprised or mad. It's a nice way to go into the weekend and hopefully keep me on track.
07/13 - 144.6 same so Iβll take it and run! Starting the weekend out stressful and busy. My oldest had to move back in with us last night. His living situation did not work out. His little heart is broken and my heart hurts for him. That first breakup is just horrible and I can remember mine like yesterday. He will be ok, but having a kid move back in after being out for a year and half is rough. Plus he is an adult now and in a completely different place than where he was at 18 when he moved out. Have lots to do to help him and get organized, so will be busy and eating on the run probably a lot this weekend. Iβm going to try and stay on track and have a really strong weigh in on Monday.
07/14 - 146.8 didn't have time to check in but did weigh
07/15 - 150.5 Extremely busy and stressful weekend. My husband's company party was yesterday (last thing I wanted to deal with), but we went. We walked the zoo for hours in 100 degree weather and I only ate one meal. Saturday and Sunday my sodium and carbs levels were doubled what I usually eat and I haven't slept well in 2 nights. Last night was another horrible, restless night. I just couldn't get comfortable or turn my brain off. Calories were good, about 100-150 over each day, so I know this weight will fall off in a day or 2. I just get so frustrated that my body can gain 5.9 pounds in 48 hours. Going to move my son out of his condo tonight and put everything into storage, but hopefully will be able to sleep better once that is done. He needs to put closure on that situation and move on. On top of everything else happening, we are having new windows installed in the entire house today and tomorrow. So we spent the morning getting ready and moving furniture for that. Hopefully I will be down tomorrow. I am drinking plenty of water today and have my day planned for food.
07/16 - 148.2 coming back down. Slept really well last night and got my son all moved out of his condo yesterday. We are just getting him organized and adjusted back to living at home with rules, lol. Good day yesterday so happy I am moving back in the right direction. 2.3 pounds down and 3.6 to go to get back to the start of the round. We ate Taco Bell last night for dinner, because it was already super late, but I ate off the fresco menu and stayed way under calories for the day. We will see what tomorrow holds for my weight!

@TerriRichardson112
Thank you!
I know how committed & wise you are, so thank you for sharing. Helped me move on, as I hold you in very high regard. Grateful that what I used to eat now makes me feel ill/bloated/etc. Helps us get back on track.
I still find social engagements the most difficult, as I canβt focus on my food & how my body feels with the conversations & celebratory atmosphere. Getting better though!
Weβve got this! π’6 -

I didn't log today. And won't do until Monday.
I woke up stressing about work. Had nice lunch and dinner plus drinks out.
But I also made a bet with a friend to lose 5kg by her birthday end of Sep, which gives me 10 weeks to go from what I'll expect to be 73kg when I start on Monday to get down to 68kg. That's totally doable and I hope it'll give me the motivation to stick to it.

Day - Weight - Comment
07/12 - 135.5 (-0.7lbs) - Iβm really starting to slack with posting these on time. I think since Iβve shifted my focus to strength training I started to care less about my weight. Iβm getting a lot of definition and transforming my body so much that it shows in a short time and I love it... so much so that the scale doesnβt even seem to matter anymore. Maybe this is the ultimate NSV? To not desire a number on the scale anymore! Well, if only life were that amazing, I still fixate on the scale but now itβs the BF% but shouldnβt it have been this whole time? A bit of an aha moment for me. I know my scale BF% is not 100% accurate bit it does seem to correlate fairly closely to other BF measurements Iβve done. More excitingly it has shown a decrease in my BF in the last few weeks even though my weight has gone up overall.
Loads of walking yesterday like 3 hours? Did a hike and other stuff. It was a rest day overall so no intense cardio or strength training.
Ate out since I need to grocery shop but all was fairly healthy. 16,053 steps. 131oz water.
07/13 - 134.5 (-1lb) - two rest days from strength training and weight has fallen back down as I expected. Iβm going to hit the gym today so tomorrow will likely go back up. At some point though I expect to get into the 120s π Ate out all day yesterday because I still need to shop but I kept it as healthy as possible. No strength training. 1.5 hours of activity yesterday including hiking, walking, and elliptical. 18,981 steps. 126oz water.
07/14 - 134.3 (-0.2lbs) - slowing working back down. Food was ok, ate out again because still havenβt shopped π€¦π»ββοΈ but also had vegan tacos π²... today is a new day π 1hr strength. 45min cardio. 14,422 steps. 126oz water.
07/15 - 135.5 (+1.2lbs) - lots of strength training. 1hr strength. 45min cardio. 16,000 steps (not 100% sure since Apple Watch/MFP sync deleted about 1-2 hours of activity data). 123oz water.
07/16 a 134.2 (-1.3lbs) - kind of tired so I turned off negative adjustments. I love MFP but it doesnβt calc AppleWatch burn properly and leaves me not eating enough, especially on intense weight training days. This allowed me to eat more yesterday and feel much better today. Food was good. 50min strength. 45min cardio. 10,416 steps. 131oz water.

Iβm in. Iβm a newbie at this and sounds fun. Iβm somewhere between 5β2 and 5β3. I am hypothyroid, which has made weight loss challenging at times. I have IBS and gallbladder, which prevents me from eating too much fat without paying a steep toll.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/12 132 worked hard doing my strength training definitely feeling it in my calves. Happily starting to see muscle development.
07/13 130: very sore. Did a lot of stretching for my sore muscles.
07/14 128.5 walked all day at my cityβs cornucopia/fair. Logged over 10,000 steps. Tired; deciding whether to do the rest of my exercises.
07/15 127.8: So bloated and crampy today; thanks periodπ. Still sore, so lots of stretching today and a quick aerobics workout. Feeling ultimately great about my weight loss, but my hanging, seemingly unshrinkable stomach apron is getting me down. Maybe itβs from emotions stemming from PMS, but I spent a chunk of time today searching about tummy tucks.
07/16 127.2. Surprised I lost weight today, usually my weight is up when Iβm pmsing. Had a good workout today. Used my waist trainer, which really helps with bloating and cramps. Forced food down for energy. Anyone else have little to no appetite when they have pms? Going to go on a walk to wind down the day.

07/16 387.6 I am back! Thanks, Jackie, for keeping this challenge going π I am hanging in there. A rough month has passed. My Dadβs building is sold. Me and my sister relationship is getting back to normal. I started going back to WW last week and last 2 meetings have been awesome. I always learn something. Another positive is I signed up for the health club at my job for $50. Not sure what I am going to do yet, but I have to start somewhere. To jump start the de-cluttering process I had a maid service come over to do some cleaning and they did an excellent job. Now the challenge is to do more cleaning and I have scheduled another cleaning for August 3rd. So I have been doing good doing a little every other day or so and keeping the stuff they did clean. That is helping me with health and food and I feel great too. Even though I am not consistent with weight yet, I am putting things in place to be more consistent with weight loss. On day at a time, one thing at a time. Thanks for being here.

My journey β¦ ("I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but Iβm Not Where I Use To Be!")In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbsMy highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but Iβm Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goalsβ¦β¦ and the same is true for you too!!

07/15 191.6 β Lovely, relaxing weekend with my son and his family. Took a break from tracking, but now Iβve got some work to do. Unfortunately, Iβve been dragging today, so no walk. I stayed under my calorie allowance, but had too much salt and not enough water. Hopefully a good nightβs sleep will help me get back on track.
07/16 192.2 β Another bump. Well, at least Iβve learned that this is what too much salt (prepared or restaurant food) and not enough exercise or water does. Today was a bit better, but Iβm still not back on track. On the up side, I had a lovely beach day, and I really enjoyed the pizza I had for lunch. Itβs going to be a challenge to turn things around this week, but Iβm not giving up yet.

Starting 7th round - these daily updates have been so helpful for me to stay on track! Thanks @GrandmaJackie!
Female, 57 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 110.0 lbs
STG: 133.3 lbs 10 pounds away from MTG of healthy weight category - last seen 6/2011
MTG: 123.3 lbs Leave Overweight category and get into Healthy BMI range - last seen 6/2010
Goal for 10 day Challenge - lose 2.8 pounds (starting weight 136.1 ending weight 133.3 of STG should be doable with exercise and staying on track with food. No travel this round should help!)
Day/Weight/Comment
7/12 135.8 Yeah! into the 135.x range for the start of the round! Good workout in spin class today in terms of estimated calories burned, although heart rate did not really get into the peak zone - end of week fatigue? consequence of doing an interval class last night and step in the morning yesterday and not enough carbs? recovering still from weight training from Wednesday? new routine (did have lots of heavy resistance)? In any case, I have the weekend to take it easier, although hope to fit in the HIIT class in the morning. Cavatappi pasta with homemade duck bolognese sauce and smoked mozzarella for dinner (have to watch portion size!), so should have no problem recharging glycogen! Unfortunately I used up all the salad greens last night so no side salad for dinner; although did have a large salad at lunch. Will get fresh greens at the farmer's market tomorrow!
7/13 136.0 Up by 0.2 pounds, but likely water weight fluctuations; pasta last night (but should be within target) and still have some leg muscle soreness from the tabata class, followed by twister with the kids on Thursday. Did go to the circuit class this morning and stayed on with a small group to do some additional core work, so a great cardio (+ social) workout all over! Rest day for the serious heavy strength training today and tomorrow to recover and start the week fresh. Got fresh shrimp with the heads on at the farmer's market, so planning on making a shrimp stock for shrimp paella on the big green egg! No greens at the farmer's market (too late
) so need to go to the store to get them for a side salad (craving greens right now!) Thinking about making a keto blueberry/blackberry crumble (supposed to be only 100 calories) as a treat tomorrow night so will try to find almond flour. NSV - MFP 5 week prediction was to be at 141 today based on food diary, but was 5 pounds under!!!
7/14 136.0 Weight same as yesterday, although this is a typical pattern by now of good drop, slight increase, stable, then drop again (plus more carbs yesterday and forgot to take BP medicine!) and overall trend is consistent over the last 6 months. Today was rest day for weights, so cardio only -- did spend an hour+ on elliptical so not sure legs are going to be really rested tomorrow (so may not see drop due to DOMS) and may switch out upper body routine for tomorrow and then do leg strength training on Tuesday for more recovery depending on how I feel in the am. Calories should be fine for day based on tracking. NSV - have been able to enjoy "new" (at least not worn in last 7 years) wardrobe of old clothes that now fit!!! Looking forward to dropping more sizes in the months to come!
7/15 136.3 Bummer - slight bump up and half pound up since beginning of round (although still have a 7 pound loss for the last 30 days so still on track). Have been hitting cardio/strength training hard and calories/exercise as best as I can tell should be in definite territory. Just need to be patient as this seems to be a typical pattern of weight increase with exercise and then a drop. Will be patient and just keep up the exercise and practice good eating habits! NSV: MFP prediction for today was 141, so definitely beat that!
7/16 134.4 WHOOSH!!!! Intense cardio yesterday, but did refuel with pasta so surprised that there was that big a drop! (and will not be surprised if I am back up tomorrow :-) Went to my old gym at the university with DH and started lifting with barbells today - new high in my exercising regime as I could actually use a 45 lb bar (with some extra weight!) Went to the spin class there, which was really intense - really felt like I put everything into it and pushed myself to a new calorie burn record for me! Now hoping I have enough energy to move tomorrow! NSV: Beat Pacer's 30 day prediction of weight (134.7) even with a weak of travel!

7/12 - 132 Yay! Two days in a row! Dashed to the gym today for a step class, only to find out it was cancelled. The teacher had reminded us to check last week....but I forgot. Ran 3 miles on the treadmill instead. Then ate all my exercise calories and more at a delicious out to brunch with friends! Thought my son and I had fixed the washing machine yesterday (we sent a bum circuit board off to be repaired and re-installed it). It ran two loads and is failing again. Arghh!
7/13 - 132.5 A few extra carbs yesterday...frustration with the washing machine!
7/14 - 132.5 Weighed, but didn't post yesterday morning. Happy to see the same weight. Celebrated my son's birthday last night with cake, so higher carbs, but within budget! Zumba in the morning.
7/15 - 132.5
7/16 - 135 Neighborhood get together with friends. I'm assuming this is the result. Should have been well within calories, and not overly carby. Had two glasses of wine and snacks. Mostly cheese, tuna/chicken salad, a few crackers. Some sweets...but not excessive. And 2.5 hours of gym time!

07/13 138.6 no clue why the gain, ate fruit, stuck to my meal plan and worked hard. I haven't been sleeping well latley, so I am wondering if it has something to do with that. Unfortunatley though today was not as good of a day. Stress has been really getting to me and when I stress I eat. I need to find a better way to cope....was thinking of signing up for some sort of boxing class or something, to get all my aggrivation out. Needless to say this will result in a gain π₯
07/14 140 This was expected but I am not giving up...every day I try is a step in the right direction...even if there are bumps in the road. I still got this! Today was a good day, a wonderful way to start the week off 10/31

***ROUND 83 (my 13th)***
Day/Weight/Comment
07/12 134.6 I'm in an odd place with my weight loss journey. I am willing to take things much slower, but I have basically maintained for a while, and I'm sick of it. I don't eat very many calories and absolutely cannot go lower. My arms are still flabby, my stomach still has rolls when I bend over, and I know I have a little ways to go yet, though I feel much more confident than I did when I started, that's for sure! But I'm stuck.
Ultimately, I know I'm more comfortable about 10 pounds lower and I don't know how I'm going to get there! Starting to lurk on the maintenance forum to figure out how the heck you "recomp" when you're this close to the finish line, hence my new goal (I haven't done any exercise yet, and I have a feeling it involves exercise...)
07/13 132.2 Heh. I complained yesterday and today I'm already at this round's goal. HOWEVER, I *know* it'll be up tomorrow. If only I could have hit this new low on a weekday!
07/14 133.6 Sadly, I'm guessing it'll be up further tomorrow. Struggling with sugar cravings, which isn't too typical for me because I always have chocolate worked into my day.
07/15 133.6 Ha.
07/16 133.6 [shrugs] I find myself torn between being really at peace with this and being mildly disappointed. Have not researched recomp yet, need to get on that!

Ready for my round 20
OSW 88KG
RSW 66. 5kg (-21.5 kg) or {- 47. 4lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
07/12 65.8kg probably a false low as a only had a tiny dinner last night but I don't care! Last day of work today for 6 or so weeks so I will be at a party but I'm now good at keeping it keto.
Just realised I've lost over 25% of my original start weight!!
07/13 65.9kg with a tiny blip up which is not a problem. I ate more yesterday but stayed under calories.
07/14 65.2kg on official weigh in day is great! And it's holiday time. I'm leaving on Wednesday for a 5 week break to our lake house. This is when I used to have crazy gains and just eat and drink. We went over Easter break and I managed to lose. I'm happy if I just maintain this visit.
07/15 65.6kg not a big surprise as I didn't have a big calorie deficit this weekend. Back on it today
07/16 66.0kg...the weekend bites back! I'm back to a deficit now and it will come off. Leaving on lake holiday tomorrow but it should be fine as its our own place so we aren't eating out the whole time. It's way too hot and hilly for running but I will swim a lot and do pilates or strength training every day. Maintenance is ok as its a holiday but I'll try to lose and I will not gain. NSV... I'm packing my bikini for the 1st time in 10 years.
07/17 65.8kg in the right direction. I reread my goals, my NSV and past round last night for motivation. Stopping at an Airbnb for 2 nights to meet up with friends and I'm not going to have drinks despite a sundowners catamaran cruise!

Hey, I'm one day late but I'm in, again with my 238734786th attempt... I feel motivated I hope it'll become my lifestyle 'cause I'm really bored of being obese. I cannot be self-confident with my body anymore.
RSW: 92.2 kg (203.2 lbs)
RGW: 90 kg (198.4 lbs)
07/12
07/13 92.2 kg (203.2 lbs)
07/14 91.2 kg (201 lbs)
Yesterday in the morning I was motivated but through the day my motivation decreased. I took too much sugar but total calorie was kinda ok (1600 cal). In the night I went out with my friends, we were kinda depressed and drink one beer. I'm happy that today I'm much less than yesterday, probably it's about not binging.
07/15 90.6 kg (199.7 lbs)
Yesterday, I was at home all day. That helped me to diet appropriately. I ate enough, as I planned. I revised my diet according to the day before when I felt hungry. It worked well. I think I lost some binging and water weight, otherwise, it doesn't make sense. And also today it's my period, it also may be about that. I don't know still happy to see fewer kgs. I hope it'll continue.
07/16 90.4 kg (199.2 lbs)
Ok, this makes sense, I'll take it. Yesterday, I was all good even I went out but stayed in calorie limit and walked a little (around 4000-5000 steps).
07/17 90.5 kg (199.5 lbs)
Not a surprise... I felt really depressed yesterday, then I ate a big brownie cheesecake. It was good, I cannot lie I enjoyed. However, I stayed in the calorie limit and walked 11k steps. I'll continue, no problem. It's a long journey.
