09/10: 308.2 lbs (+0.4) … the smallish uptick continues. Nothing that I’m worried about. I’m starting to feel some real benefits to my running… since just yesterday I’ve noticed my walking pace has increased a decent amount without a corresponding increase in effort. Not too long ago it felt like a chore just walking around…
09/11: 307.2 lbs (-1.0) … some recovery. Back on the right side of zero for this round again. Completed Couch to 5k Week 4 Day 3 this morning.

Round 88 Loss - 4.0lbs
SW 09/09 204.0
GW 09/19 202.0
This round might be tough. I am on my own for the next couple of weeks. In the past I have gone out and bought a big bag of “junk” and perched on the couch reading books and watching TV. This time...I already have several meals pre-cooked and fruit in the house. I also am planning to start back working out...nothing to strenuous but I have been fairly sedentary for the last two years after some health issues. It is time to no longer use that excuse to sit on my butt so much!

This quote has been my driving force this month...
It is a shame for a woman to grow old without ever seeing the strength and beauty of which her body is capable. - Author Unknown
I don't want to live whatever time I have left on this earth not having experienced what I am capable of doing. I don't want to make the excuses..."I am too old"..."I am not healthy enough"..."I am too fat"..."I am not smart enough"...etc...etc. There might be valid reasons why I can't do something but there should never be excuses...only choices.

9/11 179 (.5) It appears that working out more is helping with the scale. I’ve added cardio to my weekly workouts and I’m starting to see a difference. I hope my energy levels can stay up and can keep it up.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/09 …..193.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/10 …..193.6 ….. Stubborn Fat! That’s okay, I can outlast this stare-down competition! I prep cooked a couple of meals yesterday & may do more of another recipe today to help on the grab & go days here at the cabins. I have been reading over my food logging and find that I do love my keto/low-carb friendly recipes and foods, but sometimes a little too much. Often the quantities/portion sizes are a bit too big. I will have to work on that. I am proud, however, that I have learned this past year to eat more carb friendly varieties of foods & recipes. Portioning & freezing ahead of time does help. Yesterday’s stats: 1994 Calories In / 2666 Calories burned. 88 Carbs. 17,432 Total Steps & 7.38 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 4 hours & 3 minutes but woke up feeling okay. I took a riverside hike including some extra hills for 58 minutes, I took a walk at slow pace with neighbors dog for 27 minutes, I did some yard work & transplanting for 65 minutes and I did some misc light cleaning in a cabin & the house for about 40 minutes. Total extra calorie burn 918. I should not have snuck back into my keto casserole last night as it cooled in preparation for the freezer! Lesson learned. Stall explained.
09/11 …..193.6 ….. Wow! Must be a whoosh coming on soon! Maybe in the morning before I leave for my travels I’ll see a change. Yesterday’s stats: 1247 Calories In / 2625 Calories burned. 48 Net Carbs. 16,053 Total Steps & 6.79 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 3 hours & 46 minutes and woke up wanting more but needed to get busy. Yesterday I walked at a pretty brisk pace for 45 minutes, Did light cabin & house cleaning for 36 minutes & I danced last night for 20 minutes. Sample song in the country genre was “Nobody to blame” by Chris Stapleton. Total extra calorie burn from activities was 610.

@mrs_sutsie
Thank you for the words of encouragement. I was here previously long-term and had a LOT of success. And the reason it's so helpful is that we have this shared experience.
On days like yesterday, I forget everything. All my experiences (knowing there will be ups and downs). All my strategies. That's when I need you (and everyone else in the group) more than ever.
Thank you again

Day/Weight/Comment
9/10: 223.8 (0.0)/18.9 (0.0). No change is a good thing. Feeling a little bloated and/or "off" this morning. Not sure what it is, but I know my wife is sick or getting sick. I probably did not make good food choices yesterday, but I stayed within my calorie goal. EDIT: In the interest of being completely accountable, I have to acknowledge that I am not feeling particulary motivated today. I was going to just ignore it (I didn't write about it in my first draft of my post), but I really don't want to "get lost" again. I need to be here, probably more on my bad days than my good.
9/11: 224.2 (+0.4)/18.9 (0.0). I'm going to chalk up this weigh-in to the mood I started out with yesterday. I think I recovered relatively well as the day went by, and I didn't make any horrible food choices (except the "later" night coconut paleta). I kind of needed that paleta; it was delicious! My wife and I will be headed to the gym tonight (she is feeling better @mrs_sutsie ). I'm mostly feeling better, too. The gym means I can get a salad tonight from Cook's Tortas, which is always an amazing experience (you know what I'm talking about @Anlaing016 ).

My birthday and TOM will happen in this round so I am expecting pretty much the same results, but hopefully I can get my healthy/low calorie eating skills back on track. Not really looking to lose seeing as I will probably stall for 5-6 days and have 2 restaurant meals out for my bday. Thought about not posting at all this round, but then I really would go off the deep end and I don't want that to happen. So I am staying here, posting, and being accountable for my actions.

09/10 - 146.5 up a bit more than I expected this morning, but not mad about it. When I started this in July of 2018 at almost 180 pounds, one of my only goals was to be in a healthy BMI and to feel better about myself when I turned 40. I have 5 amazing kids (ages 20 to11 years old), a wonderful husband, and have so much to be thankful for in my life, but I did not like what I saw in the mirror a year ago. I have not reached my ultimate goal of 135 (which has been changed multiple times in the last couple of months), but am very happy with my progress so far. I have lost around 35 pounds and am currently working on my last 10. Maybe I will be there for my 41st birthday next year, lol. Thank you everybody who has supported me and helped me along the way with my good and bad days. Happy 40th bday to me!!!!

9/11 179 (.5) It appears that working out more is helping with the scale. I’ve added cardio to my weekly workouts and I’m starting to see a difference. I hope my energy levels can stay up and can keep it up.
I hate how much doing even 20 minutes of cardio helps me with weight loss. Until I get on the basketball court, and I recognize that it also helps with my stamina when I play. It maybe even helps a little bit with my knee pain (shh... because I hate it so much!).

@deepwoodslady Don't jinx yourself with calling out a WHOOSH! Sometimes it scares them away! The best ones come when you absolutely don't expect it. Just my humble opinion ;-)6

09/10: 204.2! Coming down again from my frustrating jump up at the end of last round. Hopefully releasing water weight. Trying to stick well to my food and exercise goals and trying to drink lots of water to reduce water retention. IDK if that's actually true or not, but I remember hearing somewhere that drinking more keeps you from holding on to water weight as much. Had a good day of work today, hoping to be more productive in that sphere as well. Was letting depression get the better of me the past couple weeks and my productivity definitely took a toll.
09/11: 205... Well, I just don't know why. Had almost no appetite so did not overeat yesterday at all and yet here we are with a bump. Nothing to do but push forward... Keep sticking to it and hope for some progress. I knew losing weight with PCOS is tough so I just need to be tougher.

Day/Weight/Comment:
09/10: 136.2 lbs - I'll take it. Went to doctor yesterday - got lots of good drugs for a sinus infection. Already feel better this morning. Heading out to play some pickleball. Ate well yesterday, stuck to my goal of no late night snacking. It has taken me 3 months to lose approximately 3 pounds. Talk about slow! But if it stays off, so be it. Plus, I've been working out the whole time so I'd like to think my fat stores are shrinking and my muscle is growing. I did take my measurements a month ago, thinking I'll compare those soon.
09/11: 137.0 lbs - normal ups and downs and it's the end of TOM. Had the most fantastic work out yesterday - played 2 hours with the really good players, what a work out, I was drenched. Pretty exhausted the rest of the day. Mostly ate well BUT I did snack a little on junk food. Not a huge amount but more than I would have liked. Thinking I need to plan out some healthier snacks so I'm not tempted so easily.

Day/Weight/BF%/Comment
09/10 197.8 (+1.0)/ 29.2%. Late weigh in after breakfast but it is what it is. I may have a number goal for this challenge. But my challenge to myself is to be better than I’ve been. With the help of a few people I believe I can!!!
09/11 197.0 (-.8) yesterday when I thought I didn’t have it in me. When I didn’t want to do anything. I went to the gym on no sleep. Then forced myself to do cardio later. Although when I finish these small accomplishments I feel great, I’m more proud I didn’t just say “it can wait till tomorrow”. Let’s see what today brings me. Although Wednesday’s usually put me in a good mood.

Day / Weight / Comment
09/10 - 143.2 It's been a lot of snacks and treats and no meal prepping for the past 10ish days. Add a TOM (and the fatigue that accompanies it for me) to that and I'm feeling a little rough! But I'm ready to turn that around with my meal prepped lunch salads, healthy dinners, and lots of water. Went to the gym for a nice kickboxing class last night, and should be able to do a few more gym sessions, even though I will have a somewhat busy week!
In NSV-territory, I picked up my Matron of Honor dress on Friday, and the size I ordered a few months ago (that I was a little worried might have been too ambitiously small) might actually need to be taken in! The dress has been one of my motivations, so it felt really great to see it fit so well! Wedding is in December, so that will keep me focused for the next few months!
09/11 - 142.6 It was a nice, basic, "reset" kind of eating day: breakfast shake, lunch salad, fruit for snack, baked chicken & veggies dinner. I was feeling a little hungrier during the day than I'm used to, but I think it's just my body transitioning back to eating a little less. Doesn't help that my lunch salads are supposed to have avocado and the darn ones I bought on Sunday are still rock hard! But I'm going back in the right direction, which feels good!

Round 89 – September 10 to 19
Female, 5’, 66 years. Goals – finish calorie log each day, only yogurt or fruit in the evening and nothing after 9 p.m. SW – 162.2, GW – 160.8, UGW – 140. (This really should be 125 or 130 but that seems like such a long ways to go and 140 would be a huge improvement.)
Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 – 161.8 – Happy to see a 161 this morning. Not much exercise yesterday, raining again so painted the trim in my office. Have been good about snacking though – I’ve got a new cross stitch project on the go that I’m super excited to do and have to have clean hands so stitching has been winning out over snacking.
09/11 – 162 – Sun is finally out so it will be a working outside day. Tracked all cals. yesterday but no exercise. No LNS though.

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.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.
