My plan for R92 is to remain focused, log and track properly and see a loss of 1-2lb....

Our kitchen is coming out this weekend as our new open plan space (lounge, kitchen and dining room) needs to be completely emptied out in preparation for the floor being laid and the new kitchen being delivered so next week will be a challenge food wise but I have a plan ...... Just need to stick to it!

Start Weight 137.9lb

10/10 - 138.9lb (+1.0lb) Was about 100 calories over yesterday but it was salty popcorn so this is basically just water retention and nothing more. Hubby away for a few days and my youngest wanted to sit and watch something on TV together and decided to bring in a bowl of popcorn to snuggle up with - how can anyone resist that offer! Enjoyed the popcorn obviously but no where near as much as the hour spent snuggled on the sofa with my daughter

Some days life is sssooo good

10/11 - DNW
10/12 - DNW

10/13 - 138.2lb (-0.7lb)
10/14 - 137.8lb (-0.4lb) Very happy with this after a weekend. Although not a normal weekend. Went to the gym Saturday morning while the girls were at cheerleading practice, then spent the rest of the weekend emptying out the kitchen cupboards and getting rid of all the units ready for the floor this week. Meant I was pretty active all weekend and no big family roast last night. Kitchen-less now - new one gets delivered next Tuesday but still then has to be fitted but I should have my oven back up and running by the weekend

So slow cooker chilli prepped for tonight with microwave rice ......... Going to be tough to stay on plan this week but my weigh in this morning keeps my motivation up!
Have a great week

10/15 - 137.3lb (-0.5lb) Happy with this mornings drop. Food planned and prepped for today around the floor laying and gym session tonight so should be another good day

10/16 - 136.8lb (-0.5lb) Same again and very happy

Final screed floor covering being laid today so still no kitchen so we are eating out tonight to give us a night off of preparing meals on a single chopping board and washing up in the bathroom sink

Intention is there to stick to plan (with the steak, jacket potato and salad bar option and avoiding the chips and desserts) but meals out are generally higher in salt and I will probably have a glass of wine. Being good all day and having light meals to conteract this as far as I can. Have a good day everyone

10/17 - 138.0lb (+1.2lb) As expected after eating out last night so I know why and I know alot of this gain will go over the next day or so. Was fairly good last night although did end up having a bit of Chocolate brownie as they brought an extra one to our table by mistake so my husband and I ended up sharing it! All back on plan today and gym tonight so its all good

10/18 - 136.6lb (-1.4lb) whoosh plus a bit after dinner out on Wednesday

10/19 - 135.4lb (-0.2lb) And a bit more. Been a good week 😊 Having no kitchen has meant I have had to be very organised and planned what we are eating all week... Keep losing like this and I may postpone getting new kitchen delivered 😂
Have a great weekend

3) Stay on top of assignment grading!!!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 -181.4 – Halfway to the top of my goal range! That’s just the motivation I need this round as work demands ramp up and it gets harder to fit in the things I need to do to stay on track. Student conferences ate up most of my time today, but I fixed a few quick meals to stay within my calorie limits.
10/11 – 180.8 – Nice to see a drop going into the weekend. Heading off for a quiet weekend of hiking and wineries with my husband. Leaving my computer at home and bringing a novel from my long TBR list.
10/12 – DNW – Watkins Glen, NY. Walked down the North Ridge (Indian Trail) and up the 832 steps of the Gorge Trail in light rain, carrying a daypack, without much difficulty. Three years ago, I was getting winded just walking up to my third-floor classrooms! I think I earned my winery lunch 😊
10/13 – DNW – Gorgeous autumn day! Got up early to hit the Gorge Trail again before the crowds. Cut over after the waterfalls and looped down on the South Ridge. After lunch (and another winery), we walked the Ravine and Gorge Trails in the Finger Lakes National Forest. No big waterfalls, but we had the trails virtually to ourselves. Worked up an appetite – I’m sure I ate (and drank) back all my exercise calories!
10/14 – DNW – Travel day. Up before dawn to get back in time for my afternoon class. Feeling a little stiff, but my DH drove most of the way and I enjoyed watching the sunrise over the misty countryside. Feeling restored!
10/15 – 185.0 – Whoa! That’s some bounce! Salt? Alcohol? Inflammation? Probably some of each, plus eating over my calorie allowance for a few days. Back on track this morning to turn this around. Catching up on posts and grading as well. NSV: wearing my tees tucked in without feeling self-conscious 😊
10/16 – 183.0 – Headed back down. We’re getting some badly needed rain today, so I’m focusing on getting some grading done. Logging and calorie goals met.
10/17 – 182.4 – Not quite back to where I was at the beginning of the round, but I’m moving in the right direction. Another busy day with a workshop and extended office hours, but I got my exercise in doing some serious housework. Food was mostly a series of snacks rather than regular meals today, but I kept an eye on my goals for the day (including logging it all) and made pretty good choices.
10/18 – 182.4 – Busy day, followed by a lovely evening sitting around the firepit drinking spiked mulled cider under the stars. Finally feels like autumn! Logged everything (including the pumpkin cake I had for dessert) and stayed within my calorie limit, so today feels like a win, even if I’m up tomorrow.
10/19 – 182.4 – Well, it is what it is. The last two rounds were better than expected, and
I had a lovely long weekend away this round, so I’m not going to stress.

On to Round 93!

Round 92: I'm in again!

Female, 57 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 110.0 lbs
STG: 115 (next milestone)

Goals for 10 day Challenge: lose 1.6 pounds (reach 116).
Day/Weight/Comment

10/10 116.8 Nice - drop at the start! Of course, seems that happens a lot and then it bounces back up and I struggle to get back to the start lol! Can’t complain as getting closer to initial goal weight! Strength/weights with trainer and cardio today (step class had a new instructor!), and pasta for dinner tonight - smoked eggplant/peppers with cavatappi and smoked mozzarella. Need to go test wines for a work function after dinner so banked calories so that the wine is ok a al IIFIYM.

10/11 118 Not surprised! Weight training + cardio + pasta + wine (tasting + 1.5 glasses and additional food as I was hungry) likely all led to some water retention and my weight loss is not linear at all. I have decided that I really need to increase my calories above 1400 to closer to 1600 so that I am losing at a slower rate (1.34lb current to .5lb) for the last 12 pounds here. I have been shooting for under 1200-1300 as I usually eat lunch out or may not have verified calorie data, but based on realized losses looks like tracking is pretty accurate so can get closer to target. Other reasons: 1) With lifting this last week, I have been hungrier, so listening to my body cues. 2) Not sure if losing slower ultimately preserves more muscle mass (given that my bf is around 28-29%), but more protein with the increased calories may help build more muscle mass and maybe BMR will not drop as much (getting BMR retested in November) plus more carbs can help fuel cardio (still in a deficit though) 3) help with skin adopting to fat loss - most of the fat left is on my lower belly and hips. After a twin pregnancy have lots of stretched out lower belly skin so maybe with a slower loss rate won;t have a baggy tummy (given age may not be avoidable) Building muscle could help fill out some of the space lost to fat. Will monitor and tweak as needed [went over 1600 last night, so hoping that is primarily water or muscle lol]

NSV: Can now wear a pair of small pants that I bought on sale when I was losing weight after the twins were born, but never got weight all the way down to fit! And they are almost too big!

10/12 117.8 Going back down even with the increase in calories!!! Rest day today! Body needs it after workouts this week and have to spend a good part of today driving to the coast and back to move the boat from the boatyard to the marina. Unfortunately won;t have time to stay and sail, so activity level will be low (sorry Apple Watch Challenge team #coreslight, but will be back at full speed tomorrow!) Hopefully some walking and core work later on just to close all my rings!

10/13 118.4 Effects of being in the car for lots of yesterday? New calorie regime? In any case not out of the norm… Did Xtrain this morning and increased power to rate ratio from previous work, so nice to see that as weight is going down. (Watts are increasing as well, which is even better) Strength workout late afternoon - new PR on deadlift of 105 lbs and was able to do 5 reps at 70 lbs on bench-press.

10/14 116.4 Whoosh! New low!!! Now to see if that will hang around until the end of the round :-) Liking the new calorie levels, but need to make sure that I eat more in the morning and have pre-planned snacks for work ! Spin class tonight for cardio.

10/15 116.4 Held it! Morning was strength training with trainer, and followed up with 30 minutes of HIIT on spin bike with one minute intervals of all out at peak heart rate, followed by up to a minute recovery until HR dropped to 65% of max. Went back for evening Interval hour class so more cardio and interval exercises with medicine ball - great workout. Did much better with spacing out snacks and meals today, with increase of protein throughout the day to help strength training. Starting zig-zag on calories so total was up today for strength training.

10/16 115.8 OK probably water loss as lots of cardio yesterday, but calories were up for the day. Will see if that holds - don’t expect it to as trend line prediction is 116.4 based on Happy Scale, so may see some more bouncing for a couple of days. In any case, thrilled to see a new low and with progress should be able to hold in the 115’s in a week or so. Will have spin class this evening after work, so prepared snacks to be fueled for class!

10/17 115.4 OK surprised, but hey maybe this is a benefit of increasing calories/ protein throughout the day ?!? %BF is down to 27.8 and skeletal muscle increased to 42.1 %. Refueled after spin class with pasta and a sauce with ground duck sausage and smoked mozzarella. Hit food calories on the nose yesterday, but still had a 599 calorie deficit for the day from tracking with the watch, so may need to increase food a bit more (will monitor). Today was step class, strength training with trainer, and then I did HIIT intervals on the spin bike for 30 minutes, so higher food calories today as it is a strength day. Hoping to hang out in the 115’s if possible for the rest of the round!

10/18 115.6 Yeah!!!! Staying in the 115’s. May be a challenge to stay here tomorrow as I have old friends coming into town and we will be having drinks/appetizers at a friends house before will all go out for dinner (Greek; checked out the menu and looks like good choices). With this group there is usually a lot of wine, which should be IIFIYM in moderation! The bigger challenge is that DH’s brother is coming into town this evening so more challenges over the weekend ahead! I am not going to worry about the calories but take time to enjoy being with friends! With the current exercise regime my body can handle it and any bump up is likely going to be from sodium with eating out/water retention than real weight gain. Going to express spin class at 12:30 (should be well fueled for this after dinner last night) and and maybe a quick arm workout before for biceps/triceps or other muscles that were not targeted in training yesterday if I can fit that in over lunch.

10/19 115.8 Made round goal weight of 116 or less! On track given increased calories approaching goal weight (10.8 lbs to go!)

Our kitchen is coming out this weekend as our new open plan space (lounge, kitchen and dining room) needs to be completely emptied out in preparation for the floor being laid and the new kitchen being delivered so next week will be a challenge food wise but I have a plan ...... Just need to stick to it!

Start Weight 137.9lb

10/10 - 138.9lb (+1.0lb) Was about 100 calories over yesterday but it was salty popcorn so this is basically just water retention and nothing more. Hubby away for a few days and my youngest wanted to sit and watch something on TV together and decided to bring in a bowl of popcorn to snuggle up with - how can anyone resist that offer! Enjoyed the popcorn obviously but no where near as much as the hour spent snuggled on the sofa with my daughter

Some days life is sssooo good

10/11 - DNW
10/12 - DNW

10/13 - 138.2lb (-0.7lb)
10/14 - 137.8lb (-0.4lb) Very happy with this after a weekend. Although not a normal weekend. Went to the gym Saturday morning while the girls were at cheerleading practice, then spent the rest of the weekend emptying out the kitchen cupboards and getting rid of all the units ready for the floor this week. Meant I was pretty active all weekend and no big family roast last night. Kitchen-less now - new one gets delivered next Tuesday but still then has to be fitted but I should have my oven back up and running by the weekend

So slow cooker chilli prepped for tonight with microwave rice ......... Going to be tough to stay on plan this week but my weigh in this morning keeps my motivation up!
Have a great week

10/15 - 137.3lb (-0.5lb) Happy with this mornings drop. Food planned and prepped for today around the floor laying and gym session tonight so should be another good day

10/16 - 136.8lb (-0.5lb) Same again and very happy

Final screed floor covering being laid today so still no kitchen so we are eating out tonight to give us a night off of preparing meals on a single chopping board and washing up in the bathroom sink

Intention is there to stick to plan (with the steak, jacket potato and salad bar option and avoiding the chips and desserts) but meals out are generally higher in salt and I will probably have a glass of wine. Being good all day and having light meals to conteract this as far as I can. Have a good day everyone

10/17 - 138.0lb (+1.2lb) As expected after eating out last night so I know why and I know alot of this gain will go over the next day or so. Was fairly good last night although did end up having a bit of Chocolate brownie as they brought an extra one to our table by mistake so my husband and I ended up sharing it! All back on plan today and gym tonight so its all good

10/18 - 136.6lb (-1.4lb) whoosh plus a bit after dinner out on Wednesday

10/19 - 135.4lb (-0.2lb) And a bit more. Been a good week 😊 Having no kitchen has meant I have had to be very organised and planned what we are eating all week... Keep losing like this and I may postpone getting new kitchen delivered 😂
Have a great weekend

10/20- 134.1lb (-1.3lb)Wow not sure where this came from.... But happy to take it. Did eat well yesterday and also worked out at the gym in the morning.
So overall loss this round is 3.8lb which I am so pleased with and would like to stay on this round to be honest as seesm to be a good one 😉

@Anabirgite What fruits are in your “diuretic” fruit salad?

Cantaloupe ( #1) is the one of the best fruits for being a diuretic, Watermelon also is wonderful but not n season... Raspberries, blackberries and blueberries were included...not fancy but delicious and and going with my multicolor fruit and veggie theme this month.

At the last few pounds, and have been bouncing all over the place. seem to be defying the laws of physics. Goal for October to eat 5 servings (80g) fruits/ vegetables of different colors every day.

Good luck everyone!!

10th Oct: 120.6- Spin Day- Shocked I am starting at a low, went to the last Beer/Wine walk last night and enjoyed the appetizers. Our husbands joined us and we went to fewer restaurants and beer theme not my favorite so may have worked in my weight loss favor.
11th Oct: 119.8 Have been bouncing around for 3 weeks from 122.8 to 120, can not believe I have broken the floor of 120. Heading to Body Pump this morning after enjoying my oatmeal smoothie bowl. Ate more than 7 servings of fruits and veggies and 100 grams of protein yesterday, yeah...
12th Oct:120.2 Not bad- since I hit a low yesterday...tomorrow will be the real test as we are going tailgating this afternoon- no good will happen there I am sure- But lots of fun! Probably take me all week to recover- trying to mentally prepare for tomorrows scale number- Did go to body pump- Had my oatmeal smoothie bowl, and planning on leftover ratatouille for lunch. Do not want be ravished when I get there.
13th Oct:121.8- To be expected..Had a great time at ND/USC tailgate. Tons of people tons of food and even though I was drinking 100 calorie hard cider they still add up. My apple watch actually turned on and asked me if I was working out walking from where we parked to the tailgate. I should check to see if it was a mile. Well, ate with reckless abandon and will spend all week correcting - but this is life enjoy ing each moment and accepting the consequences. Did go to body pump before and did a 3 mile walk in preparation- I made horrible Tiramisu brownies (had to throw away)- I am so out of practice baking, not cooked all the way thru but did sample too much of those too.
14th Oct:121.6 Starting my slow trek downward- I hope to be back to my low last week or 2 ounces lower by end of week. Went to body pump today and walked the dog twice. Fall is coming quick here and the cool weather has begun. I am not sure I will be getting 2 walks in much longer. Also ate all my fruits and veggies in every color... Love Fall veggies.
15th Oct: 120.2- Well bloat came off faster then usual, made a fruit salad for my girlfriends meeting yesterday- lots of diuretic fruit seems selfish but everyone enjoyed. Spin Day, going to try to get to class early so can get several extra miles in.
16th Oct:120.2
17th Oct:120.0
18th Oct:121.0
19th Oct:120.6 Ended with TOM last 4 days- working with my doctors to induce menopause - fail this quarter will try again. Massive migraine last 4 days, a little relief today maybe a 4-5, but up and down on weight to be expected and not related to food consumption

Day/Weight/Comment

10/10-204.2: Yay!!! So excited about this loss! I'm trying not to be so strict with my food because it's driving me crazy. I said screw it yesterday and had some chips. My breakfast and lunch are always good and for dinner I had chicken fajitas with a little avocado and sour cream. Had this all home made and didn't add any bread to it. My water game still isn't where I want it to be, but I'm working on it. I did get in the gym last night

And it's been getting easier to go. Hardest part for me is how tired I feel after work. I won't be home until late tonight, so not sure if I'll go, but I will be getting a lot of walking in.

10/11-204.2: Annoyed, but also happy it's not going up. I had to leave work a little early yesterday to go to the Lotto office (I won $1,000 on a scratcher!

) and from there I decided to stop by the Outlets since it was in the area. I walked A LOT at the mall. And I was also so hungry (not good) and had a sample of bourbon chicken at the food court which sold me on getting a plate. I ate a little and felt full so packed the rest and kept walking. I got an iced water and headed home, but got hungry again and started munching on my leftovers. Was hoping to be down at least a baby bit, come on scale make it an even 204 dammit >:(
I'm just nervous. Driving out to see my friend tomorrow and she has no filter with food anymore and I don't want to go down that rabbit hole again. And it's like if you do eat less and try to be healthy they question you and guilt trip you into "come on lets have pizza and wine and chips and chocolate." Or maybe it's just my friends that are sucky like that. Kind of why I've been losing a lot of friends lately. You start to see their true colors. Anyways, happy Friday!!

10/12-205: Ugh! I did this to myself. I brought Armenian pizza to work for everyone. It's not as heavy as regular pizza, think of like a tortilla with some ground beef and cut up veggies on it and it's thing. I'm mad at myself because I was hungry and caved in and had 3

It was Friday night so I went out with my parents and had half a margarita and some chips and salsa. I didn't have much, but still.

10/13-DNW Was in Irvine spending the night at my friends so didn't get home until the afternoon. Made the mistake of having pancakes and has browns with my sausage and bacon at Dennys. I'm blaming the hormones right now.

10/14-206.4: I thought I had ditched 206, but here I am >:( More pissed at myself. I saw my friend over the weekend and we munched, but I still did pretty good. Last night I went to Souplantation and kinda let loose. Nothing too wild, but I should have had more salads and no pasta or baked potato. Also doesn't help it's been a few days since I last went to the gym.

10/15-206.2: Ugh it's down, but not by much

Kind of like a slap in the face by my scale. Think because it's my TOM I'm bloated and all over the place. Trying to just take it easy these next couple days. I didn't go to the gym last night because I felt really nauseated at work and it just didn't go away. Not sure if it's from something I ate or what, but just tried laying in bed instead. Seeing my bf tonight and mad at myself for forgetting to grab my scale. I know I sound kookoochoo but his scale sucks and I don't trust it and I like just having an idea of where I'm at each day ESPECIALLY after hanging out with him. We will most likely go to the gym together tonight and he has been trying to get me back on track.

10/16-DNW: Good thing is I'm not feeling as bloated today, but no idea what I'm at weight wise today. No gym last night. Got to bf's house feeling bleh. We wen't to Lucille's last night for dinner, but I honestly just had some bites of things and will have some of my leftovers for lunch today. Back on it starting tomorrow with my healthy eating and working out. These TOM pains are killing me! Also, and this cracks me up, bf got me a "Get *kitten* Done" notebook to use for logging my workouts at the gym. He knows I already log everything on MFP, but thought it would help me want to keep track and he wrote once I get 20 gym sessions in he will take me to my favorite, SUSHI! We joked about how I'd push myself to go to the gym more if it meant I get sushi. I know it's bad to reward yourself with food, but my sushi obsession is kinda of out of this world. Pros, it will keep me motivated and also this way we won't go as often and only when I push myself to workout more. I'm laughing at myself about this, but also kind of excited

10/17-205.4: I'm honestly surprised. Happy to be down almost a pound! I ate okay yesterday and was in too much pain to make it to the gym, but I did push myself to at least walk the dog, so I got in some activity there. I don't want to be too strict on myself right now. I hate starting fresh and then knowing I have plans on the weekend and then I have to start fresh all over again. I'm just trying to make good choices and overcome this weekend. Going to see my cousin tomorrow and have a little girl's/spooky movie night at her place. Really got to get in the gym tonight though, it's been too long.

10/18-205.2 Happy it went down, but not by much. Didn't get in the gym last night. I keep getting home late and I can barely keep my eyes open. Seeing my cousin tonight for some much needed girl time. I know I keep putting things off

Thinking of working out in the morning instead tomorrow since it will be the weekend and also thinking of doing a Disneyland day on Sunday with my cousin to get some walking in. Everyone on here is so nice and motivated. I need more people like MFP family in my life

10/19-205: Not bad, let's hope this gradual loss continues.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 -207.2 When I woke up this morning the heaviness in my gut from eating something that I was sensitive to was mainly gone. So I'm not surprised that there was a drop on the scale this morning. My gut is not 100%, but it definitely feels much better. I'm proud of myself that over the last few days when I wasn't feeling great, I still stuck with my diet and exercise even though I didn't want to. Workout with strength coach was tough yesterday. It's supposed to be a great sunny fall day today, so plan is to go for a run after work.
10/11 -207.6 Went to the gym this morning and got my run in yesterday. I had a great salad for lunch today.
10/12 -207.6
10/13 -207.6 Yesterday I took the dog out for a quick trail hike before going to meet the in-laws for lunch. We went out for pizza and I had 1/2 of the pizza for lunch and took the rest home for dinner. We then went out for dessert and I had a great piece of gf olive oil cake. Going to see strength coach today and may see a movie later...no popcorn!
10/14 -207.6 Wow, same weight for 4 days in a row. Went out for a great 5.5 mile trail walk with hubby and the dog today. It was a gorgeous crisp, sunny fall day with the leaves changing colour. My husband is baking apple tartlets today.

10/15 -207.6 Day 5 at this weight. A part of me is fascinated to see how long the scale can stay at this weight and the other part is frustrated. I may go out and do my C25K tonight depending on if the weather holds up, rain is supposed to start tonight and last for the next couple of days. I'm going for my body fat scan today, it's been four months since the last one, so it should be interesting to see the results especially since the scale appears to be stuck.
10/16 -207.0 There's the change. Strength coach tonight.
10/17 -207.8 I had a great workout yesterday with my coach. There is an exercise that I hate to do and last week when I had to do it I wasn't a very happy person and I was a little difficult. Yesterday, I knew I would be doing the same hated exercise, but instead of telling myself how much I hated it and complainng about it to my coach, I changed my attitude and told myself to just get it done. In the end, doing the exercise wasn't as horrible and actually seemed easier than last week.

I only include the last 5 rounds, but have been doing these challenges since round 58. Still trying to get into the 130's. It is proving to be a lot tougher than I ever imagined, but I am going to continue trying. Maybe we will do it this next 10 days!

Goal: No weight higher than 144.9 and see 140/141 at least 50% of the time on the scale.

Round 87: 148.2 - 143.6 down 4.6 Avg 143.73
Round 88: 143.6 - 147.0 up 3.4 Avg 145.84
Round 89: 147.0 - 143.7 down3.3 Avg 144.99
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 down 2.8 Avg 142.68
Round 91: 140.9 - 143.6 up 2.7 Avg 143.62

10/10 - 142.9 I am slightly annoyed this am. I have been really good, even through my 3 day weekend. I should be lower than this. I guess I will just keep going and hopefully I see a whoosh sometime in the near future. It seems like I can not get past 142/143 for the life of me. My maintenance is within 5 pounds of where I am today, but at the rate I am going I may not be there till next year, lol. Maybe tomorrow I will see a nice drop, I am on track for today and not going to self sabotage. This is just the way it goes sometimes.

10/11 - 141.4 Nice little drop. My lowest last week was 141.5 for 2 days and 140.9 for 3 days the week before that, so maybe I can hold onto it this time. Really going to try and work hard this weekend. My daughter is having her wisdom teeth out this morning and then I have to work this afternoon, so it's just going to be one of those days. No fast food! No fast food! That will be my goal today.

10/12 - 142.3 I’m ok with this. Had a couple of drinks last night with dinner, but food was on point. So this should go back down as long as I stay on track today. The weekends are my downfall. I only ate 310 calories all day yesterday until dinner because I knew I was going to have a couple of drinks with our meal. So I should have still been within my limits.

10/13 - 143.6 This is the rest of last night I guess. Will try and stay on track this weekend. Making myself be really good the rest of the month to lose these last couple of pounds.

10/14 - 142.8 Not bad for a Monday weigh-in. My best one so far. Halfway through this round and so far I am feeling really good about my progress. I have pretty much stayed the same and not had any crazy fluctuations. We will see what happens the next couple of days. I really am expecting a good loss soon.

10/15 - 142.3 Was under calories again. Having some TMI issues this morning, so maybe that's why I am stalling. I have been working really hard to see a nice drop the last couple of weeks, but have just been stuck within the same couple of pounds. I miss the days where I would get a 1 or 2 pound drop in a 10 day challenge. Now it seems like it is a couple of ounces here and there. Granted that was 40 pounds ago, but a nice big whoosh would be amazing. Oh well, I guess I should be happy that I am so close to my goal weight and just keep working at it. Maybe tomorrow I will see a new low.

10/16 - 140.9 Finally! Back down to my lowest weight and what I ended last month on. Have had to fight to get back down to it. Was under calories again yesterday, but did have 2 light beers with dinner. Really wanting to break through and see a new low. On track for today and hoping to be good tonight. 3 more days to go, fingers and toes crossed!

10/17 - 140.9 I am shocked it did not go back up. Happy with it today, but ready to see a new low. Was under calories again yesterday, but had a couple of light beers with dinner again. I think this is what is stalling my progress. Even though I am working them into my calories, it's just empty calories and maybe dehydrating me a bit or something. No alcohol till Sunday for the Cowboys game at all! Maybe I will see a drop by Saturday if I do that.

10/18 - 141.5 Well I definitely did not expect a darn gain this morning. I had no alcohol last night and didn't allow myself to have a dessert with everyone else. Still have not seen a new low, but so far I have succeeded in both of my goals I set for myself this round and my trend is down almost 2 pounds so far this month. One more weigh in tomorrow and maybe I will see what I have been waiting for. If not I guess we will look for it in round 93.

10/19 - 141.5 Well pretty much maintained again this round. I don't know if I will ever see the 130's, but all I can do is continue trying. My 10 day average is down a little more and I made both of my goals for this round, so onto the next one!

@jenn990205 You got this!! NEVER GIVE UP! I wish I had a condensed version of the 4 months it took me to get through the 140s! Stick to it!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 92
