Amazing Autumn: October weigh in and accountability thread

@weatherking2019 & @l4a_p - You ladies look freakin fabulous! I'm going to force myself to take progress pictures tomorrow - your bravery is inspiring!! I think it definitely helps with the accountability & I love this group - no way am I posting them on my page. LOL!
@Antiopelle - this is very similar to the Mirena (same hormones) and it's good for 7 years. I'm much better today (haven't threatened to kill all men yet this morning) so I think I'll be back to normal by tomorrow.
I appreciate everyone's encouragement - I'm such a wuss about pain. I'll be back on the workout bandwagon tomorrow - I think today is pushing it just a bit much....5 -

I have started StrongLift but...not really. I don’t have enough weights to keep adding some every time. So right now is challenging, but I will have to buy more at some point.
I love it and I know I will continue to find it enjoyable as time goes on.
In the general forum, I ve started writing in a thread called “just give me 10 days” and it’s really given me a better perspective on the whole “the body weight fluctuates everyday because of such and such reason” but I never applied it to me... so it’s quite eye opening to reflect on these moments of insights.
Anyways, 500 gr for the week is good. I will continue to try to go slow (slower than this) and enjoy the process.
Might upload a pic one day as well :-)6 -
@cayenne_007 I had debilitating cramps without BC, so the IUD cramps for me weren't any worse than those were. In my case 110% worth it! The first one I spotted here and there the first few months, but since then, nothing - on my second one now, and that one wasn't any more comfortable to have installed, but the cramps and spotting went away within a day. Going on 7 years period and mood swing and (other than those 2 times) cramp free!! YEARS of freedom lol.

I had a good week. I have been bloated though, so I didn’t get to see the scale drop. That’s disappointing, but not stressful since I know I was on track with both diet and exercise.
We are leaving today on a three day trip up through the Poconos to see the foliage. We are going to take the kids to a fall festival and also stop by Lancaster, PA to see the Amish. I’m comfortable switching to maintenance calories during our trip if I need to, but not knowing the calories of things we will be eating at food trucks or side of the road diners is making feel a little anxious. Wish me luck!4 -

Goal #3: Be active at least 3 times a week
10/1: 192.8 (already got in my workout and logged my food for the day)
10/2: 192 (SUCH an off day. Wow. I had a huge delay to my lunch due to work, and I think that threw off my blood sugar or something. I felt incredibly off all day)
10/3: 191.8
10/4 - 10/8: 192 (I have felt soooo off since last week. Finally on Monday and today I started to feel better. I am changing up a daily snack to hopefully give me more nutrition for the same calories. Work is SUPER picking up, so I am aiming to still prioritize the gym a few days a week. I'm honesty surprised to still be at 192. Still aiming for all my other goals!)
10/9 - 10/11: 193 (I've been active 3 times this week, plus daily walks with my pup. Not surprised at the increase. I hope to be outside active this weekend now that it's FINALLY out of the 90s!)4 -

Happy to be starting new month goals! I didn't quite give my September ones the attention they needed, so we'll try again for October. I changed up my diet last month and my follow-up RMR test results are showing that I'm right on track to achieve my long term goals (feed the slow-twitch muscles and improve endurance!). Also I've lost a few pounds of fat, and that has also been validating that my body is responding really positively to the changes.
SW: 215
CW: 198 - back in ONEderland! 💕
Always Goal: peace and understanding of my body
Goal #1: Continue to complete daily journal prompts. Reflection is so valuable!
Goal #2: Go through my closet and finally get rid of my “someday” and “skinny” clothes. Live in the moment and be present with THIS body.
Goal #3: 31 more days of sobriety for a total of 25 weeks!5 -

Starting weight: 68kg
Ultimate goal weight: Around 57-60kg
Oct SW: 66.1kg (29th September)
Oct GW: 65kg, or less, but not below 64kg
The plan
1. Track all good and exercise (aim to stay under 2100 net calories on average)
2. Lift weights 3-4x per week
3. Some kind of cardio at least 5x per week
1/10: - Away from home, no weighing
2/10: 65kg I fasted 20hrs on purpose on the 1st. I want to do it monthly but the idea is to eat back most of the extra defecit so I don't lose weight faster than planned
3/10: 64.2 even lower!
4/10: 65.1
5/10: 65.4 more like what I expect
6/10: 65.3
Skipped my 3rd gym session this week and only did cardio type stuff on 3/7 days
7/10: 66.1 Did a little run, felt great
8/10: 65.4 pleased I'm not above 66 again. Went to run group and kept up! (They're so fast!)
11/10: 66.5kg Have been going over my calories a lot this week, best I can reasonably aim for this week is an average of 2350 Cal's/day (maintenance)

My 50th birthday mystery destination has been revealed - we are going to Thailand, all beaches, all bathing suits.. Sept was not great in terms of weight loss but some progress was made.
Again I want to thank everyone for participating because I can see such similar struggles across the board. Every pound is hard earned in this last 10 lb range!

Thanks for the recommendations on here re: Libra, it is much nicer to look at the trend versus the sometimes depressing up and down of weight. As some others have mentioned, hormones are crazy and lead to some disheartening weigh ins!! Libra helps to take away the sting of a bad day. Apparently, I should be under 140 by months end (that would be nice!!)
For fitness - I have been doing my new indoor cycling program, and entered a Zwift online cycle race this morning... I am still down in fitness since last winter on my bike, I ended the spring very strong after dedicated training and indoor racing, but then just toodled around outside this summer, no serious rides (in past years I have done some 100km+ days).
So, depressing a bit to see how my FTP is down, but on the plus side, my new program is already yielding results. I was still dead last in the race today but my watts are on the way up (getting stronger again!). And hey, I still beat everyone who didn't enter a race. ;-)
And - I started part boarding a horse, I haven't had time to ride in a few years so looking forward to getting back in the saddle. It is a very green 4 year old so hopefully it will be time in the saddle, and not any on my butt on the ground! She seems very sensible and more woah than go, so I am not too worried..5 -

05/Oct/19: 73.0 kg (out of town for the weekend, lots of wine, food, sweet treats, but also walking)
06/Oct/19: ? (out of town, but better eating with portion control, some sweet stuff)
07/Oct/19: 73.6 kg (no alc, treats)
08/Oct/19: 73.1 kg (no alc, no treats)
09/Oct/19: 73.0 kg (no alc, no treat, running)
10/Oct/19: 72.6 kg (TMO kicking in, wine for dinner, no treats. ALready an achievement in itself. The wine I will just ignore.)
11/Oct/19: 73.5 kg (HELLO WATER, TMO, Couldn’t fall asleep last night. Looking forward to get done with the day.)
12/Oct/2019: 73.9 kg (had friends for dinner the evening before. Was yummy, but with the TMO the weight stayed up, although I ate in total around maintenance calories. But there was wine, too. Alcohol....)
13/Oct/2019: 73.9 kg (good night sleep, ate okay on Saturday, so might take an extra day for the water to flush out)
14/Oct/2019: 74.5 kg (Alright, let’s rant: yesterday was a babyshower for a friend of mine. I didn’t drink much throughout the day, like water/tea, food was again approximately maintenance but high in sugar and fat still. With all the sitting around, lack of water, travelling up and down by train, etc. I get that there’s not much progress downwards. But THIS?!?)
So this week... Good news is that the TMO cravings were much softer than last month. So that’s a relief. On the other hand, those two days where I ate okay in terms of calories I still took on some extra weight with alcohol and higher sugar and fat percentages than what I usually have, probably also some relation to the TMO but wtf? Highly frustrating result. Let’s see, no language course tonight, so I am considering to pick myself up and use the time instead for a run. Will depend on the combination rain and dark later. Being alone it does not feel as safe as with a group.
Alright, time to get over with this Monday morning and move on to better moments.3 -

Goal #1: maintain between 68 and 70.
Goal #2: restart the pushup challenge, this time with real pushups
Goal #3: keep on logging everything
So, I'm back from my superlong holiday, which kept me away from the scales (which was scary in itself), but I weigh exactly the same as when I left. Lots of parties and diners, but also a lot of diving, so that was a good exercise in maintaining already
I've not been able to bike to work this week as the weather is horrible.
I didn't restart the pushup challenge - no excuse
I did log everything, but then again I ate like a vacuumcleaner, with no mindfulness whatsoever.
So I need to get a grip, I've been there before and this is exactly the point were I normally would slide again. But not this time ! I need to figure out some cardio during the winter months which seem to have started early this year. The logical thing to do is to go the gym, but I don't like it as I'm a real outdoors person. I'll give it a thought though and take a decision before next week. My resting HR is through the roof so something needs to be done.
No exercise + eating without limits = current weight of 71.4
1. No bike to work last week, and very long days staying in meetings without movement.
2. Still didn't restart the push-up challenge
3. I kept logging everything.
Ok, so Im still sliding on wrong side of things. Today is my birthday and my goal was to weigh 70 and I didn't make it. No biggie, I still can do it, but I'll need to change things. It's been two weeks now and I need to find a way to include more exercise. Wednesday evening I will check out a gym close to home to see what they can offer me for the winter months.

Height: 176cm (5'9")
Weight: 66kg (145,51lbs)
BMI: 21,3
Goals:
1) Again maintain this weight for another month. I don't feel comfortable yet to start trying to lose more weight
2) Be more consistent with the workouts (especially core)
3) Be more consistent with kcal budget: right now I do a lot of days heavily over and then compensate the next day(s) - I want this to be more level headed
4) Continue running on HR and hope to see improvement...
1 October: 65,9kg
8 October: 66,4kg (146,39)
14 October: 65,8kg (145,06)
Had a pretty decent week, fairly balanced with no scandalous binge days. The last 4 weeks, my weight averages on 65,9kg and I feel ready to start losing some weight again so I'm starting a bit earlier than anticipated. Dialling my kcal budget down from 1870 to 1530 again. See where it gets me
Just did a 20h fast, lift workout this morning, and planning a run tonight. My meals up til Wednesday are preplanned.
Latest NSV: The guy I'm dating insisted I weigh less than I do by carrying me around on his back and being adamant it "couldn't possible be 66kg". Also, he stated I shouldn't lose any more weight because he likes to keep "something to squeeze" 😆and according to him I'm juuuust right. Not paying attention - I do what I want- but still pleasing to hear, especially from such a fit guy.

Goal #4: Stay under on intake min of 5 days a week

10/1 - 145.6 - exhausted. Just going to watch intake today and try to crash early. Went over about 300. Just felt crummy.
10/2 - 146.8 - Funny how 8 hours of sleep can change your prospective. Yoga Burn Week 11 at lunch and Push Up Challenge - 14,16,12,12,20 - FINALLY did a rep of 20!!! Worked out at the barn for a couple of hours and rode one colt. Stayed just within on cals.
10/3 - 147.6 - I'm just gonna ignore this and carry on. Yoga Burn Week 12 at lunch. Did decent on food.
10/4 - 147.0 -
10/7 - I feel like CRUD! As in run over by a truck... been fighting sore throat/swollen lymph nodes since Sat. I'm just trying to take it easy today and let my body recuperate. Ugh! Giving myself a pass on yoga and pushup challenge for a couple of days...I can't get sick, I don't have time for this... I'm really done whining now.
10/14 - 146.0 ... my 'couple of days' turned into a week. I just couldn't find my groove last week & getting an IUD knocked me down pretty hard. Busy weekend with lots of time outdoors. I've eaten horribly the last week - bit surprised the scale wasn't higher this morning. Happy Monday!7 -

New to this challenge and just got back to MFP after months of absence. I just turned 28 and I am the heaviest I have ever been. I've always been an athlete and in pretty good shape but have been slipping the past year or two. Trying to make some good progress for a wedding in the philippines coming up in February and then stick with it until bikini season in summer 2020.4 -

Sitting at the airport coming back from a conference and I am pleased to report I NAILED my goal!!!! Stayed within reasonable range of calorie targets every day while traveling this past week - ate grocery store food most of the time with only one night out for dinner. I didn’t set an exercise goal but I managed to go out for walks on breaks and free time and even used the hotel gym twice!! Got to try a fancy Peloton bike😝😝
I weigh in tomorrow morning but I’ll have to say even without a number to go with it I’m feeling pretty accomplished10 -

Goal #1: maintain between 68 and 70.
Goal #2: restart the pushup challenge, this time with real pushups
Goal #3: keep on logging everything
So, I'm back from my superlong holiday, which kept me away from the scales (which was scary in itself), but I weigh exactly the same as when I left. Lots of parties and diners, but also a lot of diving, so that was a good exercise in maintaining already
I've not been able to bike to work this week as the weather is horrible.
I didn't restart the pushup challenge - no excuse
I did log everything, but then again I ate like a vacuumcleaner, with no mindfulness whatsoever.
So I need to get a grip, I've been there before and this is exactly the point were I normally would slide again. But not this time ! I need to figure out some cardio during the winter months which seem to have started early this year. The logical thing to do is to go the gym, but I don't like it as I'm a real outdoors person. I'll give it a thought though and take a decision before next week. My resting HR is through the roof so something needs to be done.
No exercise + eating without limits = current weight of 71.4
1. No bike to work last week, and very long days staying in meetings without movement.
2. Still didn't restart the push-up challenge
3. I kept logging everything.
Ok, so Im still sliding on wrong side of things. Today is my birthday and my goal was to weigh 70 and I didn't make it. No biggie, I still can do it, but I'll need to change things. It's been two weeks now and I need to find a way to include more exercise. Wednesday evening I will check out a gym close to home to see what they can offer me for the winter months.
Current weight: 71.5
I wound up taking last week off from the Push Up Challenge as well - restarting today & rather dreading it - but I do think my arms/upper body are more toned.
Jups, tonight is the night for the first set, let's do this 0
