Had my annual biometric screening at work on the 11th, and for the first time I was in the normal weight category (right in the middle of it) and had a normal body fat percentage. Now just waiting on the results from the blood screening.

69 years old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

Trying to get back to walking 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year.

Heaviest: 192.2

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!

09/12 - 142.8
09/13 - 141.8 Ah, that feels better! I've been sticking with my plan all week, which feels good. Yesterday I had a lunch lecture meeting which involves a buffet of food. Instead of making a little salad plate and filling a full plate up of meat/sides, I put greens all over my big plate, and added in chicken, veggies, and some rice to make it more like a big salad! It felt good to control something that used to be a struggle and make it fit into my calorie goals! Also had a great kickboxing session after work yesterday - lots of elbows and mitt work, which are my both my favorite! Yesterday was very busy (dog had to go to the vet, a family get together popped up that we needed to attend), but I'm proud of myself that I planned ahead so that I could make it all work. I had my preworkout and gym clothes with me so I could go straight from work/the vet. My gym has a shower, and I left some supplies in my locker so I could shower off without going home and still attend the family event. Being prepared for circumstances that could arise has been a really big game changer for me in making my weight loss work this time around!
I've got a busy weekend too, but I'll try to fit one workout class in at some point, or at least not overdo it on eating all weekend.

9/10 179.5 (-2.5) Very excited about this number!!! I guess increasing the calories burnt is paying off @anlaing016.
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.
9/12 178 (-1) The extra workouts are definitely paying off, weight is coming off and my clothes fit better.
9/13 177 (-1) Happy that it’s finally Friday, busy weekend ahead. Hopefully I can stay on track with the meals and workouts.

Day/Weight/Comment

09/10 -200lbs- I am ordering my new scale today so I can monitor my weight better. Got my walk in early this morning because it is going to be 95 degrees here today and it doesn't cool down until after dark. I am not generally a morning person but I have to admit that the slight crispness in the early morning air is very nice!

09/11 -199lbs- Walk was a bit slower today. I am counting this as a rest day. Calorie intake and logging was good yesterday. I am thinking about joining a gym because winter will be here eventually and while I love my walks I hate being cold!

09/12 -199lbs- My new scales should be here today! I felt really shaky yesterday. Don't know why. I did make sure I ate back some of my exercise calories and nutrition looked pretty good...I do feel better today and had a great walk this morning. I am worth this effort and so are YOU!

09/13 -197.1lbs- Thank you, new digital scales for that drop! HaHa! I still want to lose another pound during this challenge. I feel good today except I have about a hundred things that need to be done and I need to stay on top of healthy meal planning!

9/10 166.1 I'm in a similar place I was last round on day 1. Getting ready to travel for work with my BF in tow for a few days. I must say NO to all sodium heavy things. At least I'm seeing my man. He hasn't had to travel for 3 weeks in a row!

9/11 165.9 Yeah!!! No BF after all. EDIT: The yeah is for the weight, not the missing BF.

9/12 No Scale I was happy to be down yesterday! I'm sad my BF isn't here with me but I woke up a little sick so maybe it's better he's not here I was under on calories yesterday and lifted weights last night. Going back tonight to ride the stationary bike. No scale until Saturday. I have a doctors appt tomorrow afternoon. I hope he can tell me something good about my leg. I miss walking so much.

9/13 No scale Went to the gym last night and did over 12 miles. I'm consistently doing 5-minute miles now. The location I went to has new stationary bikes that have scales built-in so no more put in your weight, it came up 165 pounds without my help. I hope that was accurate because it meant I wasn't retaining too much water! It was after work so not my regular weighing time but I was happy. I don't remember what the scale said the last time I was the docs but I think I'll be down around 20 or 25 pounds. I should be able to spend a lot of time with my BF this weekend AND my friend Mark that has been staying with me recovering since July 9th is going to try to leave on Monday. Fingers crossed ladies. I love him like a brother but he's a brother that's been living on my couch for 2 months. Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!!

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.

09/12 …..195.4 ….. Unexpected travel yesterday ( so I’m posting this day a day late.) Now I will be doing planned Travel & planned cheat meal for a special occasion today. This will not be a good round for me, but the in-between days I will really make count! Yesterday’s stats: 1729 Calories In / 2272 Calories Out. 71 Net Carbs. 12/13 Fitbit step hours. I slept 5 hours & 19 minutes. 8986 Total Steps & 3.8 Total Miles. All travel with no planned exercise.

09/13 …..197.8 ….. After travel weigh-in following two days of travel, inactivity & restaurant food. Today will be a strict day & will include increasing the walking & exercise level back up to my goals. Yesterdays sad stats: 2369 Calories In / 2384 Calories burned. Approximately 197 Carbs. (ugg) 7218 Total Steps & 3.05 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 17 minutes last night which is a lot for me. Probably a carb crash again. Just like the song said, I’m “starting all over again”. No problem, I’m up for it! All caught up on posts & am proud of you all. So many great goals!

Round 89 (my 21st)

OSW 382.0
RSW 299.6

My goal is to get back to my lower calorie goal and start losing more than water weight.


09/10 298.8 Guess I was wrong, there was still some water weight to be lost! Today will be my last maintenance day of this set. I’m planning a day or two of eating at maintenance calories here or there for special occasions now that I know that I can stay on plan more often than not.

09/11 299.2 A bit of a bounce up, but dinner was high in sodium so I’m not surprised. Back to lower calories today. I’m ending the maintenance break at only 3 pounds higher than I started it at. I don’t think that’s too bad at all.

09/12 297.4 Who knew that I still had water weight to drop? I did pretty well yesterday staying on track. It doesn’t hurt that I’ve decided that I’m not going to be as aggressive in my weight loss goals for the moment. I know that I can be if I want, but I think that led to the binges and struggling in August. I still plan to lose, but I’ve set my calorie goals for a little higher than I did before in hopes that it will lead to fewer binges and less struggling. If it doesn’t work out I can always change things.

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 ).

9/12: 222.8 (-1.4)/18.8 (-0.1). I did not make it to the gym last night, but I'm going to go today. I was under my goal for calories last night, and pretty on-target with my macros. This wasn't a WHOOSH, but it was probably a whoosh. My neck/upper back are really sore today, but I'm not going to let that throw me off.

9/13: 223.2 (+0.4)/18.8 (0.0). I had a bit of a blip last night. Sweets are the Devil, and I indulged a bit. Still, I kept it under control for the most part; I had another paletta (160 calories or so) and 1/4 to 1/3 of a bag of dark chocolate covered berries (200 to 260 calories). I'm not overly concerned with the bump, but I'm trying to limit the duration of my "relapse." It was not that intense, and when I woke up this morning, it was over. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Hi everyone. I am hoping to get back on track this round. The last 3 rounds have not been my best and I have just been maintaining around the same 5 pounds or so. 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.

Round 84: 145.9 - 143.7 Avg 144.28
Round 85: 143.7 - 139.6 Avg 142.35
Round 86: 139.6 - 148.2 Avg 144.08 my FIL passed away this round
Round 87: 148.2 - 143.6 Avg 143.73
Round 88: 143.6 - 147.0 Avg 145.84 In Texas most of this round dealing with FIL stuff

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!!!!

09/11 - 143.8 this is fro dehydration and way to much alcohol. Did have a really good birthday though. Should be up tomorrow I am assuming.

09/12 - 145.8 I figured plus we went out last night for dinner and our reservation was originally at 7:30, but did not get seated until 8:30. So late dinner plus 2 margaritas waiting to be seated and 2 beers with dinner. Officially done with my break and back on the wagon.

09/13 - 143.8 Had a good day yesterday and I am getting back on track. My TOM should be here any day so I am figuring I will stall, but as long as I can get back into the groove of things and then I can shake things up next round. A little over a month on my "diet break" and I am only a couple of pounds up from where I was so I am not mad at all.
