Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 134.5, pretty happy with this weight especially since it’s after a weekend. My TOM will be mid week so hoping to curb any cravings and still manage to get workouts in.
10/01 134.3, back to where I was at the end of last round and hopefully the downward trend continues the rest of the round. Ending on a Wednesday gives me time to lose any period weight.
10/02 134.2, back to lowest weight and TOM started yesterday. Lots of water and cooking today a meal that gives 3 meals of leftovers do should be set up well for the next couple of days.
10/03 134.1, meals prepped for today (still leftovers) and managed to go to the gym for an hour so hoping continue on downward trend tomorrow going into the weekend with some cushion since always go up slightly.
10/04 133.8, went to the doctor today and weighed in at 135.7, which was discouraging but reminded myself that it’s better to see a trend with the same scale and I’ve been using the same one since the beginning. 70 minute on elliptical this afternoon and prepped meals should hopefully help continuing on a downward trend
10/05 133.8, ate well but skipped the gym to finish a project. Will try to do 1 hour and a half tomorrow to make up for the missed session today.
10/06 133.6, managed to do an 1 hour and a half. Off to brunch so may be over calories tomorrow but go so rarely will enjoy myself. Dinner is the last bit of leftovers.
10/07 132, no idea where this weight came from but excited to see it. I expect to be up tomorrow but always great to see a new number
10/08 132.3, ate well yesterday, but didn’t work out. Today going to work out and hoping to stay under 133 in order to meet goals for the round.

Day/Weight/BF%/Comment

09/30 195.6 (-.2)/ 28.7% (-.1%) had a rest day from the gym yesterday. Stayed within my calories. Probably didn’t eat the best but it wasn’t horrible.

10/01 195.8 (+.2)/ 28.8% (+.1%) I didn’t eat the best that’s for sure. But ready for a new day. Another night of playing soccer but not indulging in carb overload before.

10/02 195.0 (-.8) / 28.7% (-.1%) yesterday i again has zero motivation but at least it was the same motivation for food. Didn’t eat to bad. Played soccer last night. Had a late dinner but it wasn’t horrible.

10/03 196.0 (+1.0) / 28.9% (+.2%) had an ok day yesterday till it came to dinner and after. Not sure I even tracked correctly. Probably not. Had a rough start to today so my timing of weighing in was off. But we’ll see where to go from here.

10/04 196.4 (+.4)/ 28.8% (-.1%) I do bad, I gain. I do good, I gain. Cool!!! Bring on the weekend.

10/05 196.0 (-.4) / 29.0% (+.2%)

10/06 197 (+1.0) / 29.5% (+.5%)

10/07 195.6 (-1.4) / 28.7% (-.8%) feel better today, like had my normal weigh in time. More routine evening and morning. But not getting too excited. Things seem to change so quickly

10/08 195.6 (+/- 0) / 28.7% (+/- 0%) and here I thought yesterday was a good day. Yet nothing to show for it. Cool!!!!

10/03 - 72.85 arghhh!!! Why does my body keep doing this to me?!
10/04 - 72kg now that's more like it!
10/05 - 72.6kg - I'm very bloated and constipated so I know the .6 will shift. Scoffing prunes!
10/06 - 71.5kg - I could weep for joy!!!
10/07 - 71.6kg - hopefully still on the right track. I have extended my fasts to 20 hours
10/08 - 71.85kg - weighed myself after eating so no surprises here. Walked 28k steps so that food got put to use very quickly!
10/09 - 71.55kg - this is more like it! Yeah baby!

I think I may have overdone it yesterday. I ache all over! Going to have to find a physio!

Day/Weight/Comment

09/30: 235.2 - I ate way too much Chinese food yesterday. I got my workout in today and am trying not to munch on everything. Not a bad Monday.

10/01: 235.6 - bloated and gross feeling. Haven't eaten the best in the last few days.

10/02: 236 - not been eating the greatest but trying to stay within calories. Hormones and bad food choices = water weight.

10/03: 234.6 - I didn't work out yesterday and over ate. At least the scale is lower than yesterday. I need to get back on the ball. I'll try to do better today.

10/04: 233.4 - I did better yesterday and got my workout in. I really hope the scale keeps dropping. I'd like to see below 232 lbs this round. Happy Friday everyone!

10/05: 230.4 - well that was a pleasant surprise. After a week of not doing the greatest I still managed to lose some weight. My goal is to reach 220 by the end of October and I'll be happy if I'm even close.

10/06: NWT

10/07: 231.2 - I did terrible this weekend but I'm not worried. I know this is just a fluctuation and as long as I keep an eye on my calories I'll continue to drop weight.

10/08: 230.2 - I can't wait to get over that hump and get down to the 220's. I'm really hoping I see it by tomorrow's weigh-in. I didn't work out yesterday but plan to today. I've been really sore the last few days so I've been resting. I love my stationary

Between crazy hours w/ too much take out and too little exercise (on top of preparing foods I rarely eat myself for new mom and dad), I can definitely feel and see some weight gained, though I haven't been on a scale yet. Hoping it drops fast, but whatever the damage, still pleased as punch to have been able to spend so much time with them this week. Onwards and downwards!

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 – 184.6 – Big post-weekend bounce, thanks to the yummy (and salty!) clam pizza my husband and I shared last night. I think I’m finally getting used to my body’s response to extra sodium, so I’m trying to take those temporary water gains in stride. To be honest, when DH suggested pizza, my first thought was about how the salt would affect Monday morning’s weigh-in. But I’m glad I said yes. We had a relaxing evening, and the water weight will be gone in a couple of days.
10/01 – 183.4 – Voila! Water gain from the pizza is gone, and I’m back to my Round 91 starting weight. Late meeting, but I didn’t want to do take-out again. Only managed a tiny walk (15 minutes) after work, but I made it home in time to roast a spaghetti squash and throw together a quick veggie chilli to top it. The leftovers will buy me some time for a longer walk later this week. Stayed under my calorie limit even with a LNS of a lemon bar and tea – “fuel” to help me power through tonight’s stack of student essays.
10/02 – 183.4 – Bonus beach day after my morning class – it was just too nice to sit inside grading journals. Walked for 2 ½ hours, most of it through the sand and surf. Met my daughter and her friend for (diet) root beer floats and still came in under my calorie limit. Banking the extra for the weekend.
10/03 – 183.0 – Glad to be moving down. Rain all day, so I caught up with grading instead of walking. Met my goal for logging and calories.
10/04 – 183.0 – Cool morning. Walked for an hour, then ran errands. Lunch out and a big gooey chocolate cookie after dinner put me a little over on calories, but I logged everything. I’ve got my grandsons coming tomorrow, so it will be a busy day. Turning in early so I’ll be well rested and ready for adventure!
10/05 – 183.0
10/06 – 183.0
10/07 – 183.8 – Monday morning bounce. Busy weekend, so didn’t get around to logging and posting. Two more days in this round, so still time to see some progress.
10/08 – 182.6 – Yay! Finally under my round starting weight. Finished my logging last night, but forgot to post again. Logged and made my calorie goal today, and managed to squeeze in a brisk half-hour walk around the neighborhood before my evening class. Papers are starting to pile up and I have homework for my professional development class. Five weeks in, and I feel like this semester is kicking my butt!
10/09

Ready for my round 28
OSW 88KG
RSW 62.3kg (-25. 7kg) or {- 55.7lbs}
Goal... Less than I started

I gained last round so its time to focus on getting where I want to be instead of settling for "good enough"

09/30 62.15kg and a nice early run. Time to get serious and stop settling.
10/01 62.4 kg which I'm hoping is the last of the weekend weight. Gym done and a super busy day ahead.
10/02 61.9kg...that's more like it! 3km run done and aerobics later and another super busy day.
10/03 61.75kg and a nice gym session done. Ready to start today!
10/04 61.9kg...no real reason so maybe just the exercise. 4km ran and last day of my busy busy work days. Physio later
10/05 61.9 kg. Hosting a big party today. We'll keep Keto bit I don't the calories will be in check.
10/06 recovery day. Broke Keto... Broke diet... Feel like a bloated slug!
10/07 64.1kg the bloat is real. The 1st time I've broken Keto in 9 months on the plan. Now I know... Back on it today and Keto for ever!
10/08 63.1kg and the bloat is going. I've been inspiring myself by reading my 1st 3 weeks of diet from January. I did it then so I can do it now. Gym done this am but going back for aerobics after work.
10/09 63.4kg. Totally on point yesterday but huge amounts of exercise. Planning on getting back to lowest weight next round.
Gain this round 1.1kg

I'm totally up for another round! I joined in for the first time on Round 90 and lost 5.8lb. Great incentive to try again!

ROUND 90: 5.8lb loss

This time I'm shooting for 6lb which is somewhere between my target last time and what I actually acheived.

ROUND 91
Starting weight 19st 1lb (267lb)
Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 - 19st 0.5lb (0.5lb loss) - A good day overall! Busy day at work so lots of walking, and was quite conservative with my calories. Will be repeating my couch to 5k run from Saturday tonight, determined to do it all (unless I get chased by another dog!)
10/01 - 19st 0.3lb (0.2lb loss) - Aaaaargh!! I mean, a loss is a loss but I am soooo close to the next stone barrier. And once I see 18st on my scale I NEVER want to see 19 again. Did my repeat c25k run last night and it was amazing. My fitness has improved so much since I started. I mean I need to keep at it, but five weeks ago I never would have believe I could run for eight minutes non-stop, twice. And I didn't get to that insensible stage of losing my breath either. 💪💪
10/02 - 18st 12.5lb (1.8lb loss) - Yesssssssssssss!!!! Fully anticipating a bounce back tomorrow but for today, I'm going to enjoy this victory!
10/03 - 18st 12lb (0.5lb loss) - So that uptick didn't come today, although I'm sure it's just around the corner. I hope I can stay under 19st when it comes though. I had a wonderful non-scale victory yesterday - I completed W5R3 of couch to 5k which is 5min walk, 20min run, 5min walk. Possibly the longest I've run in my life, 100% definitely the longest as an adult. I did it! And I felt great doing it! It was hard but not impossible. I am so proud of myself, and so impressed by the increase in my fitness in just five weeks. This success seemed utterly inconceivable then!
10/04 - 18st 11lb (-1lb) - Hooray! I am only ½lb away from a 3stone (42lb/19kg) total loss! I so hope I get there in the next few days, I know I'm due for a little bump up but I don't want one! 4lb loss for Round 91 so far so right on track for my goal. 🤞
10/05 - 18st 11¼lb (+¼lb) - Honestly, if that's my bounce, I'll take that. Doing another c25k session today so fingers crossed for onwards and downwards tomorrow!
10/06 - 18st 10¼lb (-1lb) - Yes!!! I did it!! 3st total loss!! Anticipating a bump tomorrow due to some poor choices (mainly marshmallows) today but feel very committed to getting it back under control.
10/07 -18st 9¾lb (-½lb) - I didn't deserve a loss at all, I was expecting a gain. Maybe it'll come tomorrow instead.
10/08 - 18st 8lb (-1¾lb) - Well that was a nice surprise! I was well under my calories yesterday and went out to do couch to 5k W6R2 too so that explains that. It's quite pleasing to be approaching 18½ stone. One stone more and I will be the lightest of my adult life. Hope I don't wreck it! I have a habit of self sabotage.
10/09 - 18st 7½lb (½lb loss) - Totally happy with that!

Round goal: 6lb loss

Start Weight 138.0lb

09/30 - 142.4lb (+4.4lb) Hosted my Dad's birthday dinner last night so good food, good company and a couple of glasses of fizz to celebrate. So a temporary blip on the scale as I know I didn't eat enough to put on 4lb but due mainly due to more carbs, late evening eating and sodium. Food all planned for today and aiming to drink plenty of water ..... All is good, feeling positive and a new month starts tomorrow too! Happy Monday

10/01 - 139.6lb (-2.8lb) Glad I don't only weigh once a week as would have been very demoralised yesterday - this is why I love daily weighing and learning to understand the effect different foods have on the scale every day. Another good food day planned and a gym PT session tonight and my water bottle is at my side

10/02 - 138.8lb (-0.8lb) Will take this quite happily. All heading in the right direction, actually been logging my food properly, staying in allowance and drinking my water and amazingly the scale goes down ..... Who would have thought it eh ?

10/03 - 138.3lb (-0.5lb) Still heading in the right direction so all is good. Decent food day planned and gym tonight so all good and feeling positive

10/04 - 137.6lb (-0.7lb) Yay!!! Down to less than I started this round at last!

10/05 - 138.0lb (+0.4lb) Hhhmmm - and back to where I started again. Don't know why as ate slightly under calories yesterday so can only think it was lack of water. I don't work on a Friday and being at home I tend to forget to drink water - plenty of tea and coffee - just not plain water. Possibly this..... But then I do often find if I've had a few losing days then I will ping back up a bit then start losing again a couple of days later - not disheartenend as feeling in control at the minute so just got to make sure that carries on.
Have a good weekend everyone

10/06 - 139.9lb (+1.9lb) Artificially inflated as always on a Monday due to our usual Sunday family roast with parents but was really bad at drinking enough water over the weekend. Got so caught up with painting the room getting ready for new floor to be laid and delivery of our new kitchen over the next couple of weeks that I didn't drink nearly enough of anything let alone water! But back to normal weekday routine - at work every day which seems to make it so much easier for me to stay in a routine as sit at my desk with my water bottle in front of me plus I have a 60-90 minute journey each way every day that I get plenty of chance to drink my water. Have set myself up a target of 4 weeks to get back down to my holiday weight of 133 (if not more of course) (have my grandsons birthday party and fireworks celebrations that weekend so have an event to work towards rather than a vague date - seems to work better for me that way) - easily done if I stay focused and accountable 3, 2, 1 go!!!!

10/07 - DNW (Sunday lay in)

10/08 - 139.3lb (-0.6lb) A bit off - still would like more of a whoosh before round end though! Ate and drank well yesterday so all good. TOM arrived over 2 weeks late (well half heartedly arrived - but guess at 48 the end is in sight so guess it all going to start getting a bit weird and unpredictable!) Hopefully that will mean I will feel a bit less bloated as felt very "PMS'y" for the last 2-3 weeks. Good food day planned so here's to more of a drop tomorrow.

10/09 - 137.9lb (-1.4lb) Yay - decent whoosh. So finished the round down - although only 0.1lb. But hopefully on a bit of a roll now and I can take it into the next round.
See you all in Round 92

I'm in. messed around the last round and bounced up and down the same few pounds. Aim this round is to get into the 139's.

30th Sept: 142.5. Had parents round for dinner yesterday. There was apple tart and ice cream. And cider Back to routine today.
1st Oct: 139.75. I don't deserve this low number today. Yesterday was AWFUL. 3 Krispy Kreme donuts. Crisps. Chocolate. Digestives with real butter. Apple tart. Trifle. No exercise. Just hit my steps that's about it. BUT this low weight has given me a pep up and I'm determined for today. Piloxing class tonight. Really hope I can keep the weight in the 130's.
2nd Oct: 139.25. Absolutely estatic with this. Stayed within calories, did 18k steps and a piloxing class. This is the lowest I've been in 5 years. I'd love to get more comfortable in the 130'3 but TOM is this weekend so lets see.
3rd: Oct: 138.5. WOW! Absolutely thrilled. Yesterday was a good day and went for a walk with my mam and dogs before it got dark. Its getting dark early here now - about 7:15pm and as I live in the country, my evening walks are numbered. I can drive to the nearest town for a walk but its an hour round trip. Piloxing class tonight although we are expecting storm Lorenzo to hit so it could be cancelled.
4th Oct: 138.5. I'm so appreciative that alls going well for me. Stayed within calories, got my steps in and had a piloxing class last night. Another piloxing class tonight. Quiet weekend ahead, but I'll get walks in with the dogs. Promised my boys we'd have a chips and pizza movie night tomorrow night. I haven't had fast food in a long time so I am going to budget for 2 slices of pizza and a bag of chips. We are renting a carpet cleaner for the weekend so I'll be busy washing the couches and carpets. Oh.. and my car seats! I'm a bit of a cleaning nerd.
5th Oct: 138.25. Good day yesterday. Stayed within calories and did my piloxing class.
6th Oct: 140.5. Chips and pizza family night last night. Stayed within calories so not worried about the slight increase.
7th Oct: 141.75. Bad day yesterday. TOM and boy its bad (TMI). Walked the dogs up the woods and had shepherds pie for dinner. It all went downhill from there. There was buttery toast, chocolate bars, biscuits. No end to my snacking. Its like I lost total self control!! Did A LOT of housework too though. Back to normal today. One of the girls brought in caramel rice crispy squares - I did have one but I have it logged. Someone else brought in a box of chocolates... not going to TOUCH them as if I do, I wont be able to stop at 1. Son has training tonight so I'll walk the dog for an hour, get my steps in. Want to finish this round back in the 139's.
8th Oct: 140.5. Went 150 cals over yesterday. So.... I didn't manage to resist the sweets... I ate 9 and logged them..450 calories. SO not worth it. Literally had bread and jam for my tea before bed, was so short on calories. Today my aim is to resist the box of sweets. Good drop today though, I managed to get 16k steps yesterday. Piloxing class tonight, so if I could finish this round in the 139's I'd be delighted. Still TOM though so we'll see.
9th Oct: 139.25. Happy with this drop. Had a good day yesterday. Stayed within calories. Got a walk in and a piloxing class so ended the day on 22k steps. Very happy with this round!

Total loss this round: 3.5lbs. Find this hard to believe. I think I had a "fake" high on day 1 of this round which makes my finishing weight look good. Either way... I'll take it!

My goal for this round is to avoid binge eating and stress eating. Avoid sugar and hopefully lose a little bit of weight

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 80.9 I gained weight during the last round. There was a lot of stress and I dealt with it partly by eating a lot, mostly candy. But now most of the stress is gone and I can get back on track again
10/01 80.9kg I was so tired yesterday and got hardly anything done. Periods really does sucks sometimes. But hopefully I’ll get started with some exercise again today.
10/02 81.0kg Jump rope for 25 minutes and a very small walk
10/03 81.3kg
10/04 81.4kg My diet is not the best right now. But atleast I am getting my exercise done. There’s such a big difference in my body weighing around 80 kg now when I lift weight and try to keep as active as possible from weighing 80 kg about 5-6 years ago when I didn’t exercise at all. I am still overweight now and I definitely want to lose so I get back at a healthy weight. But I don’t feel as uncomfortable in my body as I used to do and I am very happy about that. Getting started with a consistent exercise routine is probably the best thing I have ever done for my health (+quit smoking).

So I ended at a high point. I had dinner and drinks out 3 times this round. It’s usually more like once every 3 months.
I’m going to spend today doing house and paperwork that I’ve been putting off. I know if I can clear up some of the little nagging things that have been piling up that I will feel more focused on my personal goals. I’m going to reset my to-do list.
