Round SW: 220.8lbs

Goal for this round - 216lbs

07/22 - 220.8
07/23 – 218.8 (-2.0) Was slightly over on calories nut did a good cardio session at the gym. Think that’s the weekend bloat gone
07/24 – 219.0 (-1.8) Very bloated this morning so hopefully see this number go down again tomorrow. Hit the gym again, motivation is high at the moment
07/25 – 218.4 (-2.4) Glad to see a small drop there, another trip to the gym yesterday I have never sweated so much in my life it’s so hot at the minute. Food within calories
07/26 – 220.0 (-0.8) This makes me sad but hopefully is just retaining water after doing a weights session at the gym yesterday
07/27 – 224.1 (+3.3) Literally have no idea what’s going on here
07/28 - DNW
07/29 – 221.00 (+0.2) Hopefully this will go down, have been seriously bloated all weekend, 5 gym sessions last week and food was good so I’m disappointed with what I am seeing on the scales but will keep going. Any Loss by Wednesday would be great now
07/30 – 221.4 (+0.6) Another slight gain here but I did binge yesterday so full expected this. Still massively bloated I’m thinking it’s gluten, going to cut it out the next few days and hope for some improvement. Also hoping for a miracle tomorrow to end the round on a loss lol

I'm at the tail end of this round! Dropped off the radar back in Round 79. How the time flies when you don't step on the scale and check in.

Round 84:
7/29 - 234.2
7/30 - 232.4
7/31 -

07/22 208 lbs Spinning Class for 50 min, felt pretty good --- I'm a long way from where I used to be, though
07/23 207.5 lbs Zumba Class for 60 min - felt awesome, if graceless. LOL Did well with my meals. Good day.
07/24 206.9 lbs Nice weather, so an extra long walk with the dogs this morning. Really poor sleep, though.
07/25 209 lbs I've got to pick one scale and a time of day and be consistent... I've weighed on 4 different scales with wildly different results. This is what I got today. Not gonna freak out. Had a GREAT workout - it was my break in with my trainer and I'm excited to work with her.
07/26 205.9 lbs I'm going to use my home scale, since I have access to it most easily. I checked it in 3 different locations (old house, floors not always level - lol) and got this each time. Wonderful walk with dogs this morning. Looking forward to a fun evening - going to see Billy Joel in concert. I'll not go crazy, but I'm also going to enjoy dinner and drinks and have fun.
07/27 205.7 lbs Great time at the show, good dinner without too much craziness. Had a few drinks tho, so I expect those will show up in ny numbers tomorrow. Walked over 12k steps tho... woot!
07/28 205.4 lbs Had a much needed BodyFlow class yesterday to stretch out really tight muscles. Slept well - almost 7 hrs! Feel good about my eating and didn't do that eat-right-before-bed thing I am famous for.
07/29 205.0 lbs Took a quiet day to rest. Training this morning and a busy day at work scheduled... so I take the down time where I can
07/30 205.2 lbs. Hmmm... not gonna worry. Had a great training session, but now I know I should super light on breakfast on training days. Felt fully sick and shakey for 2 hours after the gym. Felt great (if sore) the rest of the day, tho. Sleep is improving. Now, need to get more of it.

Day/Weight/Comment

07/22 – 144.5 – First morning after get-away weekend.
07/23 – 144.5 – Back to work after a long weekend away. Will try to stick to weight loss calories and plenty of water to get my weight back down a couple pounds.
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!
07/26 – 142.5 – I’m glad this stuck from yesterday. I’m going to eat a little less at work today to prepare for my weekend indulgences.
07/27 - 142.5
07/28 – 142 – I ate light and healthy up until supper yesterday, so I’m happy with this weight for a Sunday morning, but my cheeseburger and onion rings may catch up with me tomorrow.
07/29 – 143.5 – Saturday night did catch up with me. Water, water, water.
07/30 – 143 – OK!

RSW - 148.4 lbs
RGW - 146.0 lbs
UGW: 145 lbs

Round 81: SW 150.2, EW 149.6 (- 0.6 lb), Round Avg = 149.7
Round 82: SW 148.4, EW 148.2 (-0.2 lb), Round Avg = 148.3 (-1.4 lb)
Round 83: SW 148.0, EW 148.0 (+/- 0.0 lb), Round Avg = 148.2 (-0.1 lb)

Round 84 Goals:
- My son turns 2 at the end of the week! The party is done, but we'll still be doing some celebrating this weekend, so I'll still be a little flexible on the end of the round goal. But I'd like to be focused and eat well on the week days.
- I saw 145.xx on the scale last round - I'd love to see it again! My pre-pregnancy weight was 145ish, so it's really exciting to be back to seeing these numbers.
- Keep up daytime water (3 tumblers), workouts (3x per week), and add in some walking (either during lunch or after work with the kiddo/dog).

Day/Weight/Comment
07/22 - 148.4 Went to a mimosa brunch with family yesterday and indulged a bit too much! Feeling very bloated and dehydrated and SORE from a weight lifting class back on Friday, so hopefully some good choices today will get me back on the right path.
07/23 - 148.8 Ah that's never fun to see an increase after a day where everything went right! Yesterday I stuck to my food, water, and had a great kickboxing workout. But I'm trusting the process and keeping the course today, hoping that my body just needs another day to sort itself out from the weekend.
07/24 -147.6 That feels good to see a number moving down again! Once I left work, it was pouring raining, so we weren't able to get an evening walk in. Instead I brought my son to Trader Joe's, and we shopped for some groceries (since I didn't do a big run at the beginning of the week) and honestly wrangling a toddler around a store probably burns more calories than just walking anyway! We made tacos for dinner, which I supplemented with some roasted broccoli and cauliflower, and it was really good for a last minute thrown together meal! And I got supplies to make a nice healthy dinner tonight too! The weather is actually nice after all that rain, so we're planning to take advantage of that and go enjoy some time outside this evening.
07/25 - 147.0 Ah, very happy with this one! Yesterday, I went out with a coworker friend for lunch, which used to be my undoing. I would eat so much while catching up! So we picked a place where I could track my meal, and I only ate half of it because it was big, and I skipped snacks in the afternoon. After work, I took a walk around the neighborhood. It was only half an hour, but it got us out of the house and moving a little.
And then dinner was a nice and healthy but still delicious (and really quick and easy and basically all from Trader Joe's): pesto-marinated chicken breasts cooked on the grill with a bunch of grape tomatoes, some couscous, and my faaave griddled halloumi cheese! It's for foods like these that I really love love calorie counting...I was able to weigh the cheese out and a have a reasonable amount that fit within my goals as part of my dinner. I didn't pass it up in the store because I'm on a "diet," and I didn't allow myself to eat the whole thing because I love it and it just came back in season at TJs. I had just enough to satisfy and still see a drop the next day! Back to the gym tonight!
07/26 - 145.8 Today was my son’s birthday! I gave birth two years ago (and checked into the hospital weighing 205 pounds), and I can proudly say I’m back to my pre-pregnancy weight! We had a very fun day including a homemade cake and a dinner out, so the scale might reflect that in the morning, but it’s nothing I can’t deal with!
07/27 - 147.4
07/28 - 148.6
07/29 - 149.2 busy busy weekend with several events that revolved around food, and the scale is showing it, but I'm back to making better choices today!

07/30 - 148.4 Yesterday's eating was on point, went to the gym for a great sweaty boxing session and I was rewarded with a nice little drop. Even though I have a good plan for today, I still don't think I'll see a big drop tomorrow to close out the round, but that's alright! I knew this would be a tough round and it's good to just come out without gaining any weight.

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

07/26 - 134.4lb (+0.5lb) OK scales that is just mean Weird day yesterday as it was ssoo hot and humid here (hit the high 30's) but still went to the gym. Drank loads and loads of water yesterday and ate late because of the heat and its not unusual for me to drop weight then fluctuate a bit up and down. Still happy and focused which is the main thing !


07/27 - 133.0lb (-1.4lb) Water weight and a whoosh to get me exactly to my target!!! Got a lovely screen message on myfitnesspal this morning declaring me at my target - which I had forgotten I'd even set on there
So a lovely start to the weekend and will be happy to sit here till the round end as then off on my holidays. No doubt will end up putting a bit of weight on while away but this is a great place to start my holidays Go me!!!

07/28 - 134.3lb (+1.3lb) Follows an afternoon and evening round a friends with my Aussie friend and her family which involved a couple of alcoholic drinks, carbonated water and drinks and (although I'm pretty sure I wasn't massively over my calories for the day) too many snacky / buffet lunch carb laden foods. Feel a bit bloated from it too...

07/29 - 135.6lb (+1.3lb) Hubbys birthday and the usual family Sunday roast so as per most Monday mornings my weight is up.... TOM is due too ..... But every intention of being back at 133 within a few days before I head off on holiday Friday.

07/30 - 135.4lb (-0.2lb) All heading in the right direction again - ate well yesterday and all looking fine for today with a gym PT session this evening booked in. Hoping for the whoosh tomorrow back down to 133 ......

07/22 - 230.6 lbs - 230.6 lbs - 3k walk at lunch. Nike Training Club (NTC) app. Better Butt workout 15 mins
07/23 - 229.2 - 20 min walk at lunch
07/24 - 229.8 - No workout today.
07/25 - 228 - - NTC Sweat and Shape (30 mins)
07/26 - 228.2 - Just had lunch at this mom and pop place by my work. The most I've eaten for lunch in a while, but everything is made from scratch and was delicious. I regret nothing! Just going to have to hit up boot camp in the morning.
07/27- 227.2
07/28- didn't weigh in but went to a Zumba class and walked over 13,000 steps.
07/29 - 228.6 - Went to another Zumba Class first big fluctuation in the 10 days... Interesting. I wonder if it's because I sweat a lot on Sunday. Maybe I didn't have enough water after the hot day.
07/30 - 227.4 - Strong by Zumba (I'm sensing a pattern) - Using my gym membership again feels good. I steeped some flaxseed with my tea yesterday and let the fiber do its job. I guess we know where that fluctuation came from
