July 22 - First day doing 1200 calories. Didn't do to bad. A little hungry throughout the day but filled up on water. Went over my goal by 6.

July 23 - Second day at 1200 calories. Way more hungry today. Went over my goal by 640! Weighed in this morning. Disappointed with the number.

July 24 - Day 3 at 1200cal. Did better today. Still not on goal but healthy choices today and only over by a little bit. Scale was down a little this morning. It's a Step in right direction.

Hi all, this is my second round and excited to see where this next round takes me. I first started my MFP journey in 2015. I dropped down to 138 pounds and went into maintenance. I was fine for awhile until my world went crazy and exercise was no longer a priority. After putting on over 20 pounds, I got back to working out and calorie counting diligently. I have IBS and no gallbladder, so I stick to a low fat diet. I am also hypothyroid which makes losing weight at times challenging. I keep on trucking because the pot of gold at the end of 🌈 is health and an increased life expectancy.

Age: 36
Height 5’2-5’3 been measure both.
HW: 230lbs
SWMFP: 220lbs
CW: 127
GW: 115-120
UG: to love my body; even with stretch marks, cellulite and loose skin. Gain muscle and lower body fat.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/22 127lbs. Had a good workout 🏋️‍♀️. Yesterdays forced rest did my body good and I was able to easily knock out two hours of strength and aerobics. Ending my day with a yoga 🧘‍♀️ session for recovery. Feeling good, even with the scale not moving in a few days.

07/23 128.3lbs. Weight is up, trying not to panic and cut my daily calories. IBS flare up cut my workout short today and sent me home to bed with my heating pad. Crossing my fingers I will be all good tomorrow.

07/24 129lbs (sigh). Went on a ten mile walk with my son. Afterwards, every inch of my body hurt, while my son was still bouncing around full of energy. Lol, I thought he would collapse when we got home, but nope it was mid-30s old me. I did a good stretch drank down my protein shake and took a nap 😴. Hoping to see the scale go down tomorrow 🤞.

Thanks for your encouragement @musicsax! When I first found these 10-day challenges, I'd only been back on MFP for a month and felt like I had such a long way to go to reach my goal. Your posts were so inspiring because they helped me believe that not only could I reach my goal, but that I could make real lifestyle changes.

Thanks @FarmerCarla - that's the plan. But it is nice not having to buy too much on the way down

Day/Weight/Comment
07/22 189.6 – Bit of a Monday morning bounce. Not a surprise given the sausage, snacks, and wine I had yesterday.
07/23 188.8 – Didn’t post yesterday because storms knocked out power for a while. The winds also took down some large tree branches, tossed around my patio shelter, and blew a large umbrella into the pool. Fortunately, we had no serious damage and once the rain ends it’s supposed to be a gorgeous week. That means I can get back to walking! Met my exercise goal yesterday by cleaning up the yard. Today’s “workout” was trying on clothes. Did some “shopping” in my closets today and scored 7 pairs of pants that now fit, including 4 pairs with tags on them that I bought at a clearance sale in 2017. Yay!
07/24 188.4 – Delightfully cool morning! What a pleasure after last week’s heat and humidity! Walked in the park after class, enjoying the lovely day. Ice cream with the kids put me over on calories, but I was enough under yesterday that it averaged out.

ROUND 84 (Round 26 for me)
5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle, endurance, and jogging distance (while not damaging my knees).
I started Round 54 and keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-70 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last four rounds with a high weight of 135. I’ve grown accustomed to the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135, which is almost daily.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/22 131.(something) I was in a hurry to leave the house and didn’t write it down.
07/23 131.6 I knew I missed a few days of the last round, but didn’t realize I only checked in the first day! I’ll try to do better this round. I had a stomach issue from eating too many carbs last week, and I lost a little more than I wanted to lose, but I’m okay now, and eating more carefully. I like the keto WOE and fully intend to stick with it, but if someone makes the decision to go back to carbs, I suggest you add carbs gradually. Your body will revolt more violently than it rebelled when you started keto. That’s been my experience, anyway.

@FarmerCarla that's been my experience, too- I've abruptly added in a 'regular' amount of carbs vs. added in very slowly, and wow! Slowly is the way to go. I feel achy and awful when I add too much, too soon.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/22 133.2 Yay! Back to my lowest low since starting this journey. Thought I'd be up because I got a bit snackish yesterday with nibbles of brownie and a whole donut (though I stuck to my newish method of *savoring* the donut by cutting it into little bites). Fatigue is really doing me in lately, though, so I went to bed early and probably saved myself extra calories I'd have been tempted to eat.
07/23 134.4 Yesterday was ALL salt: steak and corn and homemade macaroni and cheese and baked potatoes, so being up a pound is expected. I liked Monday's 133, honestly, I think it was a fluke because my body has been more or less maintaining 134 for a month now. "Everyone" says it goes slower at the end- yep.
07/24 DNW Oops! I live in the U.S. and set the alarm early so I could watch news coverage of Congressional testimony and I totally forgot to go back upstairs to weigh. What can I say, I'm a political nerd!

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it!

Day/Weight/Comment

07/22 133.8 – just short of 9 ¾ miles walked yesterday, walks sandwiched a christening midday followed by celebratory meal at an Indian restaurant (very tasty!, but high sodium/fat). I did drink absolutely loads throughout the day to try to compensate.

07/23 133.4 – 8 ¾ miles walked yesterday, I really need to reduce my carb intake, trouble is I love fruit!! Still I'm going to make an effort to reduce processed carbs to start with.

07/24 133.4 – 9 ½ miles walked yesterday – 179g carbs which is a reduction for me, they had crept up to over 200 every day!
07/25 132.4 – 10 miles walked yesterday – 228 carbs

07/22 - 60.7kg - Oof not a great start but I overate last night so hopefully it'll even out. Otherwise a good day
07/23 - 60.3kg - Settling down a bit. Now to just get more consistent with my eating patterns!!!
07/24 - 59.9kg - Yas! Down to the 50s again (not comfortably but hey it's progress). I've managed to semi slot back into my regular eating patterns but still struggling with eating for my calorie counts vs. eating when I'm hungry/overeating. But I'll get there!
07/25 - 59.7kg - Yes for progress! But I definitely overate today so I'm worried about what the scale will show tomorrow. I found that I got stressed and used it as an excuse to eat more than I should have. Will definitely need to watch out for that

I am back for this round and took several rounds off, but I don’t have the grand kids for 2 weeks and want to get back to tracking. I am not concentrating on anything but just getting back on track. I was finally able to get at least 2 walks in already that have been 2 hours long, happy about this. The humidity is supposed to break so next week will also be good for walking.

Day / Weight/Comment

07/22 - 163.6 (0.0) Start of a new week, I'm pleased I've got my bike repaired so I'll be getting my cardio workouts done! This week is suppose to be the hottest week in history of Belgium (40C) with no air-conditioning, so exercising is going to be an issue
07/23 - 162.4 (-1.2) Cool! The weekend weight has dropped off, probably due to a lot of cycling yesterday! Cycled again this morning, which was quite difficult has it's already really hot (30C) and arrived at work looking like a beetroot! I've got some nice meals planned for the day and a massage appointment this evening with my physiotherapist as I had back problems recently.
07/24 - 162.4 (0.0) Stable so no complaint. I'll be taking it easy today and tomorrow as we're having a heatwave, 36 today and 39 planned tomorrow. I'm using my electric bike as it's too hot for the normal one (no showers at the office) With this heat I'm not sleeping too well so I have to resist carb cravings! Oh and I actually binned some chocolate which I was offered by someone who knew I was on a diet... it had half melted with this heat so the I couldn't even offer it to someone! I thought that if I started I wasn't going to stop so I put it in the bin

07/25 161.8 (-0.6) Happy, I haven't seen under 162 in ages, now to make it stick ! 102F (40C) here today, so staying in the office and moving as little as possible!

Last full round before I head off holiday on 2nd August so plenty of reason to stay focused! No major social events or staying away this round to contend with either. Aiming to finish 133 something which was my hoiday target some months back so really pleased I'm pretty much there. So aiming to lose at least 1lb which is very do-able

Good luck everyone!

Round Start Weight 134.9lb

07/22 - 135.7lb (+0.8lb) OK with this - standard Monday morning increase as had our usual Sunday family roast dinner with dessert (but all within daily calories!) and also a very early weigh in this morning. Had to be up at 430am to get my 16 year old daughters breakfast lunch and dinner sorted and see her off on her work experience at Guys and St Thomas Hospital London. All good though and feeling very motivated, positive and fired up for this round

07/23 - 134.3lb (-1.4lb) so 0.6lb down over the start of the round now my Sunday dinner has worn off

All good, heading in the right direction, good food day planned and gym session tonight. And a NSV today - someone at work commented about the weight I had lost - they had noticed by the fact my trousers were so much looser - and on a visit to the ladies I realised I can get my trousers off without undoing them now :

8 days of this round + 1day before I go on holiday to reach my 133 target - its in sight and SSSOOO close ......

07/24 - 134.3lb (0.0lb STS) All good - my usual lose a bit, stabilise then (hopefully) drop a bit more. Plus the gym last night was really hot, so a very sweaty Tabata session and I drank loads of water as a result! All looking good for today food wise - just need to keep drinking as fairly hot here at the minute (mid 30's which is hot by UK standards anyway!)

07/25 - 133.90lb (-0.4lb) WWWOOOOHOOOOO!!!!! Finally hit the 133's (UK Based so this equates to 9.5stone). May have been this weight when I got married 18 years ago but definitely not been back here since then - been close but never here. And made it with still a week to go before my holiday. Intending to stay focused for this last week though as liking how I feel about myself at the moment weight wise and also being in control

07/24 – 144 – Evidently, the weight I gained this weekend was not all water, but at least it’s going down.
07/25 – 142.5 – Well, it took a while, but there is my water whoosh from the weekend. Yay!

I am back for this round and took several rounds off, but I don’t have the grand kids for 2 weeks and want to get back to tracking. I am not concentrating on anything but just getting back on track. I was finally able to get at least 2 walks in already that have been 2 hours long, happy about this. The humidity is supposed to break so next week will also be good for walking.

07/25 - DNW - Just plain forgot. Power went out last night so I had to run around and reset everything this morning. No idea what caused it as we didn't have storms or anything. I knew something woke me up around that time but I didn't notice what it was until this morning when my stove and microwave were flashing. I'm exhausted, I just want to sleep. Off tomorrow, just gotta take my Jeep in for its recall. Hopefully I can sleep okay tonight since I'll be at my BF's. Feeling bloated and bleh but I'm in poor girl status and just happened to have some frozen ground beef, a can of sloppy joe, and some tortillas. Plus my neighbor made me a taco from his leftovers so I don't starve. I'm assuming salt and not enough water. I'll bounce back.

Previous day's comments for R84

07/22 - BF had a double header softball game last night (and every Sunday for the next 5-6 weeks, I think) so by the time we got back and got food, I decided to stay. We had some scrambled eggs for brunch (it was around 11am) and didn't eat again until after the game (830pm). Stopped at McDonald's just because he was so sore and tired and I wanted to get home to shower and go to sleep at a decent time. Not very healthy but within calories due to not eating anything else all day. Next time I'll bring cash for the concessions (didn't think they'd have it open) and maybe pack something. I was also watching 2 kids while their mom played so I wouldn't have time to eat anyway. Their dad will be back from the business trip for the remainder of the games so I'll have some freedom from kids.
07/23 - BF traded in the old truck for a new one last night and needed cosigner (ex destroyed his credit) so I went and helped him then he got me dinner with the kids. They love the new truck (as do I) and hope it doesn't have the issues the previous one had. Another night of not enough sleep and no weigh in. I feel like crap, though. My stomach hurts so bad and I'm not entirely sure why. My jaw definitely does so I've been grinding my teeth worse than normal again. Gotta figure out how to stop that (wearing a guard only makes me chew/grind harder). Going to try to stay on track with food and get more water today. Plus, I have no reason to go to BF's tonight so hopefully I can get decent sleep.
07/24 - Definitely had the worst case of heartburn last night (not even antacids did anything) so I stopped at the gas station to get something to drink and ended up being lured in by the personal pizzas. Still within calories but barely. And holy sodium. Thinking I need to see my provider and get back on those meds since my stomach LOVES producing too much acid. My dad is the same way, such is life. Don't have anything for lunch today as I'm POOR. Like I have to choose between paying rent and grocery shopping. Eek. So boxed macaroni and cheese it is...

I am ready to drop a couple of pounds this round. I haven't made the progress this summer that I had hoped for but its a marathon not sprint and slow and steady will win the race. But man this is a little to slow. Time to get to it. Good luck all.

07/22 269.5 I would love to see 266 in 10 days.Not gonna happen sitting on the couch, time to get moving.
07/23 268.5 Good past 24 hrs, focusing on exercise eating less calories. Better choices all around.

First timer here! Trying to stay on track after being off for many months and getting re-focused at the beginning in this month.

Day/Weight/Comment

07/22 - 236.7 - this is a mini-reset for me; was not strict with what I ate this weekend (still at a deficit but lots of sodium I am positive!) Today is about getting back on plan and getting in my water

07/23 - 236.5 - still feel a bit of water weight for the weekend hanging around but went to the gym for the first time this week this morning - 4:30am workouts are truly my favorite

07/24 - 236.2 - scale is begrudgingly inching downward 😂 I’ll take it tho; gym this AM again

07/25 - 234.6 - there we go! My body loves holding on to water weight! Yesterday was actually not the best day, all-day snacking hand me over my calorie goal and closer to maintenance calories; today will be better - no work out this morning, may do something at home later.
