Day/Weight/Comment
08/10 …..197.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
08/11 …..197.0 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1152 Calories In / 2428 Calories Out. 27 Net Carbs. 13,909 Total Steps & 5.89 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 56 minutes. I walked for 52 minutes & did yard work for 67 minutes. A successful day. My NSV today is that, even with my ups & downs, I am still wearing my clothes, they are not wearing me. It wasn’t always that way! Good luck this round everyone!

08/12 …..199.8 ….. Horrible binge very late last night. I didn’t realize until this morning that I didn’t even have dinner. It was my heavy work day in this tourist business & I did not plan my meals well. I talked to a late arriving customer who set up a contract for some road workers to be in multiple cabins this week & I forgot about eating until the hunger & sugar drop hit me hard & fast. Calories In 2863 / Calories Out 3286. 260 Net Carbs. Ouch! 22,009 Total Steps & 9.31 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 4 hours & 4 minutes and I’ve woke up this morning feeling like I’ve been hit by a Mack Truck. I rigorously cleaned cabins for 217 minutes & I walked for 40 minutes at moderate pace. I hope I can pull out of this carb-induced, overworked & exhausted state. However, No Matter What, my diet will be on point today!

I'm in. I kept falling off the wagon but am more motivated this time.

GW: 125

8/11: 143 -- I did not track, and I snacked all over the place. Blah. I decided to set up a morning routine beginning 8/12.

8/12: 144.6 -- I am tracking and am staying hydrated. I started a morning routine to include prayer, meditation, and of course, my outside time with coffee and a low-carb breakfast. I'd like to work in exercise as well. I'd also like to wake up earlier than 7ish in preparation for my kids' new school year next week. I'm not working this week, so I'll have more space to begin this healthier lifestyle.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

@HoopsGuy72 It seems your wife is not being supportive. I seem to remember this issue from your previous rounds under another name.

@chixy18 We follow which ever plan we want, most post weight daily and comments, if desired. It’s what you want yours to be.

NEVER GIVE UP! You can surprise yourself! I have.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Round 85: SW - 123.9 | EW - 123.0 (-0.9)

Sunday, 8/11/19 - 123.3
Ok, back for my 2nd round. Lost .9 in my first round, but fluctuation was 2.8 over the course of the 10 days. Can’t explain it all, but hoping to learn from it for this round. See I am already up 0.3 over last round’s end.
Monday, 8/12/19 - 124.2
Why?! Rode several miles on my bike Saturday and walked most of Sunday. And logged in everything I ate. So, why?! Never went over my allotted 1200 calories for a day. Have to assume for now trend will be down again the round. Just frustrating. Trying really hard to be “good” in a sustainable way that could last long term.

08/11 - 139 9/31 I am really getting so frustrated I can cry. This isn't fair anymore... If anyone pulled my activity, constant moving and eating habits they would be withering to nothing... I am really starting to hate this. I am working way to hard to see no results. This is not fair!!!! I have even dropped foods and replaced them with fruits and veggies last week... I haven't eaten this healthy in almost two months but I seem to see steadily be climbing. I dont know what to do anymore 😭😭

08/11 - 207.6! Wow! Haven't seen a drop like this in a while. Very happy! Hoping I can maintain but probably wont tomorrow, cheated a little today on my macros but stuck to my calories. Had a special occasion today, so not holding the macro cheat against myself. Will do better with macros and exercise for the rest of the week though! Until then, grateful for the loss I had today
08/12 - 207.8! Up a little but so happy to see this number on the scale. Trying to do a good job of sticking to keto. Today is the first day of my fourth week and the first time I'm struggling with cravings. I just want a sandwich! Grr... Maybe it's a side effect of resisting so many temptations this weekend. Trying to stick to my macros and calories and to continue resisting. I'll try to find something keto friendly to scratch this itch so I dont obsess over cravings. Doing a youtube hiit workout today, love them

Round 83: (Last round I posted for)

Fri 12/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ Still holding steady.
Sat 13/07: 163.5: Goals: ✅ We finally got our we boat back in the water, and the new engine is so quiet, and no nasty fumes either. Result! Now all we need is a few warm sunny days to enjoy it.
Sun 14/07: 164.2: Goals: Meh!!!
Mon 15/07: 166.2: Goals: There are no excuses.

I 😈 choose instant gratification over sensible eating at a family buffet yesterday. I haven't done that for some time. It did not go unpunished. My new healthy body rebelled big time. I spent an wretched evening feeling bloated and uncomfortable, with an extra big a big kick up the a** when I stepped on the scale this morning. Now, I know I haven't put on 2lbs of weight overnight, (though I may well have with the food I ate), and a lot of it is probably be water weight. But enough is enough, and too much is just plain daft. We all do daft things from time to time. The trick is to put it behind you and move on. I am choosing to have a few reset days of light eating to see if I can redress my blowout yesterday. Though if the truth be told, I have been sliding most of the week. I know this is only a blip. Nothing gets in my way when I'm on a mission.

Goals: ✅ Later: Noticed I had the wrong date for my post this morning, so I’ve fixed it. Hopefully back on track.
Tue 16/07: 164.0: Goals: ✅😁 Sticking close to my goals has paid off. It must have been water weight!
Wed 17/07: 164.2: Goals: ✅ Normal fluctuation. Still keeping strong.
Thu 18/07: 163.9: Goals: ✅normal fluctuations.
Fri 19/07: 164.1: Goals: ✅Normal fluctuations!
Sat 20/07: 163.8: Goals ✅
With muscle %age improving, I'm happy that the scale is not increasing. I have no scale this week as I am on holiday, so I will give Round 84 a miss. Will be back with you for Round 85.

Round 82:

Tue 02/07: 162.4: Goals: ✅Just trying to hold it steady.
Wed 03/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅
Thu 04/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅Had a busy day being foster mum to my daughter's 2 fur babies. Jack is very used to being with us, and is no trouble. Sydney is fairly new, and very nervous, and we haven't really got to know him until this week. DH is the doggie person in our house, but Sydney won't go near him, so I'm it! Worse than having a toddler in the house.
Fri 05/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Lots of walking and gardening today.
Sat 06/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Lots of garden work done today. Perfect weather with a bit of a breeze to take the edge off the heat.
Sun 07/07: 162.6: Goals: ✅ Normal fluctuation.
Mon 08/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Another plateau. 😏
Tue 09/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ Drat! The weekend caught up with me!
Wed 10/07: 163.4: Goals: ✅ *sigh* Keeping on keeping on!
Thu 11/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ I was quite disappointed with this result until I noticed my muscle %age has increased since last week. I have been working hard on lower body strength for a couple of weeks. Also yesterday, DH asked me if I had lost weight again. It just goes to show that Progress isn't always about the scale dropping. Looking forward to the next round, and making more progress! 😂

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Ugh, it was to be expected, but still... I'm sure a couple of days of regulated eating will sort this out. But I am annoyed even though it is expected after a boozy party weekend. Also TOM arrived, so maybe that'll balance things a little as well.

Hi everyone. Glad to see everyone back again for another round and that we have so many new people joining. Last round I finally got into a new decade (139.6) but messed up right away and killed that weight,lol. Stress got me for a couple of days so I am back at it again and will try to get back down.

Round 83: 146.3 - 145.9 Avg 146.72
Round 84: 145.9 - 143.7 Avg 144.28
Round 85: 143.7 - 139.6 Avg 142.35

08/11 - 141.5 up a bit today, not unexpected. Got into a bit of an argument with my husband last night and ate my emotions today. Men just drive me crazy with how simple they think sometimes, at least that is the way husband is. I crave carbs and comfort food when I am upset, so I consoled myself with them. We have been married so many years we hardly ever argue and when we do we make up fairly quickly, but he just makes me so angry sometimes. Uugghhh

08/12 - 145.0 so here is the rest of my emotional eating on Saturday and I was horrible yesterday. Of course we have already made up, but then he took me to lunch to apologize and I had 2 bloody Mary's so the sodium and carbs are through the roof right now. Water, water, and water today to get me back down. 5.4 pounds from Saturday morning to Monday morning is such a bummer. I have been doing this long enough to know not to freak out though and within a couple of days I will be back down. One weekend of emotional eating and drinking and this is what happens. I have to learn how to deal with things a little better I think, lol.

08/11 130 Only a small bounce up. Considering a few extra carbs yesterday, this isn't surprising. Hopefully todays carbs and slackardly behavior don't do me in for tomorrow.

08/12 130 Had an easy day yesterday. I only got in 7,000 steps. I did take a 30 minute hilly walk and do 10 minutes of hula hooping. Happy that the number didn't go up. It's been a really looonggggg week. A week ago Friday I had a breast biopsy and last Tuesday I got the results that it is invasive lobular carcinoma. So far, I don't have any details other than a diagnosis. I'll meet with the team of doctors this Wednesday and find out prognosis and treatment options. Wednesday seems REALLLLY far away still (although my son starts school Tuesday and that seems really soon!) The good news is that this cancer is really hard to detect and I'm pretty sure that they are thinking it is really small still. Waiting is just so hard! Luckily, too, my good habits have been pretty much sticking with me.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/11 - 236.3 - was not as strict as I wanted to be yesterday; I didn’t log so I’m not 100% sure the “damage” but this is all about balance and being consistent when you can’t be perfect.

08/12 - DNW - skipped the scale intentionally this morning, didn’t want to make my Monday even Monday-y-er because of the fluctuations. Today I was spot on with eating though for the first time in a while. Who knew making good choices throughout the day would make it easier to stay under my target calories Lolol!
