Day/Weight/Comment
10/20: 222.8 (+1.0)/18.8 (+0.1). I went to my niece's birthday party last night, and FOR ME I was okay. I had some drinks, I ate a little more than I wanted to (late night grazing), but I was generally okay. If I can get through this weekend with a pound or less gain, it would be a success. I'll be going to the gym today, and we're going back for leftovers this afternoon. I will keep things under control when I'm there. And I'm going to push myself at the gym.
10/21: 221.8 (-1.0)/18.7 (-0.1). I worked my plan to perfection yesterday. I went to the gym in the morning with my wife, ate a very light lunch, then went to the in-laws to have leftovers from Saturday's party. I stayed in control for the most part, plus I avoided both alcohol and dessert while I was there. Dinner was also very light last night. This is the first time in recent memory that I ended a weekend at the same weight I started the weekend at.
10/22: 221.2 (-0.6)/18.6 (-0.1). At this point any lower number is the lowest weight I've seen in quite a while. I'm going to try not to get too excited when I see them, but it really has been a struggle to get "here." Lots of ups and downs. Maybe I'll celebrate a little (in my head), while continuing to do everything I've been doing (eating better, hitting the gym 3x/wk, playing basketball when I feel healthy enough to do so). My wife put her arms around my "belly" yesterday and told me she notices that it's smaller. I'm continuing to notice positive changes when I look in the mirror. Gym tonight, then I watch the Laker game (first game of the season!).
10/23: 219.6 (-1.6)/18.5 (-0.1). WHOOSH™!!! The last time I went under 220 (after being above), I took a picture and posted it on Facebook. This was a barrier to me before, and it's acted like a barrier to me during my time back in this challenge as well. It's always hard for me to remember that it really takes a while for things to "come together" in this fitness/healthy lifestyle thing. I still find myself getting upset/happy on a day-to-day basis more than I would like to. Don't get me wrong; paying attention to the day-to-day is VITALLY important. But today I can step back a little bit, get a more broad perspective, and say with confidence that THIS IS WORKING. I can say that because: 1) my weight is dropping, 2) my clothes are fitting better, 3) I'm getting stronger at the gym, 4) I can see my muscles again (they're growing), and (5) I am visually noticing some of the other changes in my body (shape). The horribly frustrating part of this is that my "gut" is the last thing to go. While it's definitely gotten smaller, it's still prominent, and likely will remain that way until I get closer to 210 or 205. I'm going to keep doing this the right way; when I do, I KNOW that it works. Sunday night is going to be a night out with drinking. I'm trying to get myself in a good place BEFORE this happens (understanding that I'm not likely to like my weigh-in the next day). Sorry about the long post!
10/24: 219.4 (-0.2)/18.4 (-0.1). Dinner last night was a splurge, but I was still under in my calories. Which brings me to my next subject - time to take this to the next level. I've got my workout routine pretty much down. Basketball is in my life. I'm "taking care" of myself in some important ways. It's time for me to start cutting out some of the unnecessary carbs: bread (especially in sandwiches, which is something of a weakness for me), tortillas, rice, and all sweets (except maybe dark chocolate occasionally and certain berries). I've also done really well in the past when I've cut soda completely out of my life, but I'll hold on to that for the moment. I need to do some shopping to prepare for this properly, but I am going to give it a go starting Monday.

Round 93 – Oct. 20 to 27/ 2019
Female, 5’, 66 years. Goals – finish calorie log each day, only yogurt or fruit in the evening and nothing after 9 p.m. SW – 163, GW – 162, 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.) Planning to get my winter gym membership this round and get back to regular 2-3 times a week workout.
Back again after holiday out to see our son and family who have a toy and candy store. Amazingly am only up a bit from where I was when I left (varying around 162.2 to 162.8) although there may be an uptick tomorrow from all the chocolate.

10/22 – 163 – Not nearly as bad as I feared. Logging carefully today so as not to increase the damage though have a busy day. Last trip for the year, I think, so can really settle in to the winter stuff. Made it over the last mountain pass last night (in snow) just as they were issuing a weather advisory. At home it’s a beautiful fall day. Thankful.
10/23 – 162.4 – Question that I deserve this as had ½ a dark thin chocolate bar last night and also a bit of chocolate at lunch(gift from trip). Don’t have to go anywhere today so hoping to get in some exercise and make good meals.
10/24 – 163.4 – Was rather expecting this. Did have chocolate again yesterday but now it is gone. Did stretches this am and got to bed at a reasonable time so hoping for lots of progress today.

@HoopsGuy72 Have you tried”chaffles?” I made some for myself on Sunday. Just 1 egg and 1/2 shredded cheddar cooked in a waffle iron. It made a great hamburger “bun” for the BBQ we went to that evening. Google it, the base recipe is egg and mozzarella with lots of variations.5

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.

10/20 121.0 Food at the all day sew was not the greatest, choice wise and I am still in ketosis - barely. It was a fun day however and worth it. Today more socializing at the neighbor’s.
10/21 121.5 I think this uptick is a result of the foods from Saturday. It’s okay, I’m still well below my goal weight.
10/22 121.0 Couldn’t go to sleep last night, awake until 2 and slept until 8:30.
10/23 120.0 Sorry for the late post. DH & I went to work on our daughter’s classroom at 8 this morning. He and she worked with the kids and I did “busy work” which she would have to do at home. Her principal continues to give her a hard time about everything. Of 36 teachers under this principal last year, 21 transferred away this year! It’s ridiculous.
10/24 121.0 We ate at Asian buffet at lunch yesterday.13 -

Day/Weight/Comment
10/20: DNW- Did too much today and just didn't really weigh in.
10/21:206- I let a little loose yesterday. Went to Disneyland and walked a lot. Didn't have as much water and ended up having sushi for dinner with my cousin. I hope I can get through this week with at least some progress.
10/22: DNW- Spent the night at my boyfriends since he finally got a day off. Kept dinner simple and I thought we would make it in the gym together last night, but think we were both out of it. I'm feeling a lot better today, especially after he told me he can tell I've slimmed down a little. Honestly, hearing that made me so happy! I'm meal prepping when I get home today and will be pushing myself to get back in the habit of the gym tonight.
I'm a little nervous not knowing my weight for today, but hoping it hasn't gone up.
10/23: 207.2- Ugh this is no good! I had a feeling I went up, but didn't think it was by that much
Plus gym didn't happen last night. Not sure what's wrong with me, but I cannot keep my eyes open and just need sleep. I need a break, all this running around, driving everywhere, doing things is draining me! It shouldn't be an excuse though, I need to start getting serious. Ate kinda bad last night, not gonna lie. Need to finish meal prepping and start logging my meals again.
10/24: 207- Baby steps. Yesterday was bad! I had the worst migraine and am so thankful for Advil. My wisdom teeth pain I think is the main reason for the migraines and it's starting up again now. I'm just too scared to get them removed, and with work I don't think I'm able to take the time off. Last night I couldn't do anything. I felt like a mess and just want my energy back. I keep sleeping funky too; knocking out with the lights on, double pillows giving me neck strain, etc. I really am taking baby steps in the right direction though. Don't want to push myself too hard and get sick. This sucks but I'm trying.

I had to have a wisdom tooth removed the day after starting a new job...I was back-at-work the next day. Mine wasn't impacted, though, and God bless Percodan! *hugs*
Oh man, you're lucky! We're you ok at work after? Mine are all impacted and I'm sure it's going to cost me a lot to do it and I'm just worried about the after pain. We're you put under or just numbed? The thought of being put under kind of freaks me out.4 -

Day/Weight/Comment
10/22 - 73.3kgs.
10/23 - 72.2kgs. Passed my goal! Yesterday I stuck to ww plan successfully as well.
10/24- 72.9kgs. alright I had a very bad day yesterday. What went wrong ? Firstly I was out and did not have the discipline to stop myself from buying too much from maccas. I mean, I did choose a healthier option (chicken wrap) than normal but I didn’t have to eat those chicken nuggets. Secondly my mum keeps giving me food even though I haven’t finished yesterday’s food so here I am scoffing all the food just so it doesn’t become old. I really need to either stop doing that to myself or ask mum not to cook me anymore food if I want to lose weight. Previously for me to lose weight, I have always stopped Eating her food because I have no control how much I eat her food (it’s too good!). And she have no sense of portions (I’ll ask for one serving and she’ll give me three)!
10/25- 72.5kg. The numbers going down...but why am I doing this to myself ?? I’ll be good all day then come dinner time, I’ll stuff myself with junk. Last night was pizza and lasagne.

Back again and still working to get into the my new and final decade. I have around 5 pounds to lose to get to my final goal weight of 135-138, but at the rate I am going it may be next year, lol. I would love to see a new low this round, but we will see what happens and I want to be under 141.9 at least 6-7 times in this round.
Round 88: 143.6 - 147.0 Avg 145.84
Round 89: 147.0 - 143.7 Avg 144.99
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 Avg 142.68
Round 91: 140.9 - 143.6 Avg 143.62
Round 92: 143.6 - 141.5 Avg 142.01
10/20 - 143.9 up 2.4 pounds overnight. That is what 3 meals at restaurants in 1 day looks like on me. Didn't eat bad, but the sodium destroys me every time. Oh well, I had an amazing day on our day trip driving around and looking at the leaves changing colors with my hubby yesterday. Well worth the couple of extra water weight pounds.
10/21 - 144.6 Yikes! I don't think I deserve this, but ok. Cleaned house, did laundry, and meal prepped all day. So maybe I am just dehydrated or something. We will see tomorrow. Have my meals planned today and drinking my water.
10/22 - 144.6 Decided I needed to do something different, because I am just stuck. I can not lose these last couple of pounds so I worked out for the first time yesterday in years. I literally hurt everywhere and cannot sit down without cringing my legs hurt so bad. So I'm thinking that is why there is no change in my weight today. I will do my workout I had planned today, but I will not be doing it with a smile. This is my plan for the next 30 days to see if I can jump start my weight loss again. If not I am out of options and I may just decide the last 5 pounds is just not worth it. So 1/30 down, only 29/30 to go!
10/23 - 143.9 Still crazy sore. Did not do my exercises that I had planned. My legs just hurt to bad. Hopefully today I will get something in. but I am still not 100%. Meals planned today, but going out to dinner tonight for my son's 20th bday. Already looked at the menu and I know what I am going to order. Was under calories Monday and Tuesday, so still fighting the good fight.
10/24 - 144.6 great dinner out and almost at calorie limit. Over just a tad, but did have a bloody mary and a beer. Your first born only turns 20 once, so no regrets. I will eventually get back down.

10/24: 207-[/b] Baby steps. Yesterday was bad! I had the worst migraine and am so thankful for Advil. My wisdom teeth pain I think is the main reason for the migraines and it's starting up again now. I'm just too scared to get them removed, and with work I don't think I'm able to take the time off. Last night I couldn't do anything. I felt like a mess and just want my energy back. I keep sleeping funky too; knocking out with the lights on, double pillows giving me neck strain, etc. I really am taking baby steps in the right direction though. Don't want to push myself too hard and get sick. This sucks but I'm trying.
OI am so sorry- Both my kids had there wisdom teeth removed 2 summers in a row. Both had teeth impacted and were out to sleep. they were so cute when they woke up, another story for another day... But both needed a week to recover. I suffer with migraines and if I knew a cure may exist I would definitely do whatever needs to be done, but there is definitely a recovery time needed. Good Luck, hope you feel better soon.

Round 92 was an interesting round. I bounced about quite a bit, what with a meal out, and then a subconscious relaxing because I hit my annual target. I did achieve my goal for the round in that I did weigh less than at the beginning of the round. However, I know I can do much better, and have set myself a new goal for 2019 and a new UGW.

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.

My goal this round is to cut back on carbs, I have been a little careless the last few days and that never works for me. I think I can drop 3-5 lbs if I buckle down and get a handle on things. Its mostly water weight.Good luck all!
Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 - 273.6 lbs.
10/21 - 273.3 lbs.
10/22 - 271.0 getting back on track, focused on eating healthier and making better choices. I do great during the day its from about 4pm to bed that I get off track. So I know what I need to do. Later all.
10/23 - 270.5 getting this water weight off, gotta watch the sodium intake, feeling good
10/24 - 269.8 moving in the right direction, but its a constant battle, someday i hope it will be normal and not consume so much of my time tracking food, thinking about every bite, i look forward to that time

Round 93:
Female, 57 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 110.0 lbs
STG: 115 (next milestone)
Goals for 10 day Challenge: reach 115-114.
Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 116.6 Ate out last 2 nights - great meals, but heavy protein and wine first night (the extra protein tends to lead to slower digestion/retention) and sushi last night (also wine). Over both nights (not by a lot, so within “refeed” objective) but under maintenance calories, so expect that a lot of this is also water retention (usually gain after sushi, but love it as a treat!!!). XTrain class in the morning and then doing barbell weight routines in the afternoon.
10/21 117.2 Up again. Definitely water retention/food retention, so expect that this will drop in a day or so. Heavy weights yesterday - set new PR for deadlifts (115 lbs) - so close to bodyweight - and improving strength overall with squats and bench press. definitely feeling it in legs/shoulders today! XTrain class early am and then a pilates class in afternoon.
10/22 116.4 Reversing direction after the dinners out last weekend! Still some DOMS with deadlifts from Sunday Sunday so expect some water retention still an issue. Weight training with trainer this morning and will likely go to spin in the evening for cardio.
10/23 117.2 Bounce.. Definitely DOMS this morning from weight training yesterday am, and a super intense spin class last night (38 min at peak HR out of 55) so not surprised weight is up (likely water retention) NSV: have lost 0.5 inches around my waist since last week, so scale and army %BF calculators seem to agree that BF is around 28% At this point with weight training, inches lost are more meaningful than changes on the scale, but still watching to see how my body is adjusting to the increased calories. Decided today would be my rest day for this week (usually the low point) and will be back to strength training and cycle tomorrow.
10/24 117.6 Waiting for the Whoosh…. Have had a week like this before. I am pretty sure that calories are below maintenance and exercise is good, so probably still a mix of increase in muscle (scale thinks 0.2 lbs so half) and water retention from exercise and sodium (cheese in lasagna I made last night probably did not help on that count). Great workouts today, so not expecting a drop tomorrow as muscles recover. Patience, patience, patience… NSV: my old white stretch jean leggings are too big in the waist (seemed to fit a week ago) - that’s more important than the scale number as belly fat gets burned! Ordered new jean leggings 2 sizes down.

10/23 139, I'm rejoining. I had a rough go at work, then fight with my boyfriend, and lost it. I started eating and drinking without thinking. My weight is up, and I quit the last challenge. Now I feel even worse, and want to get back on track.
10/24 139, hanging at this weight. Lifted weights today, walked dog, and didn't overeat. Still hoping to see 138.

3) Stay on top of assignment grading!!!
4) Cross something off my "to do" list
Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 – 183.4 – Back where I was on 10/1, but I’m not really surprised as I haven’t been putting in as much effort as I should.
10/21 – 183.0 – Gorgeous day, so I opted for a longer 70 min. walk rather than a household chore before class. Got a bit of grading done and caught up on student email before heading to my daughter’s for a delicious dinner cooked by my grandson. Came in under my calorie allowance even with the pumpkin cake I ate for breakfast!
10/22 – 182.6 – Rainy day, so no walk. Did a few small chores instead, but didn’t get as much done as I’d like. These chilly grey days just seem to sap my motivation. Met my calorie goal though and even got a little grading done. Forecast for tomorrow is better, so I should be able to get out and walk.
10/23 – 182.4 – Long busy day, but I got my walk in and stayed under my calorie limit. Did some laundry and took care of some of my “to do’s” on campus. Too tired to focus on grading but I’ll be up early to get some of it done before class.
10/24 – 182.4 – Up early to finish the grades before the first day of midsemester conferences. I wound up taking a two-hour nap when I got home, but the day was so lovely that I tied on my sneakers and took my pup for a walk in the park before dinner. With the sun low in the sky behind me, I mused on my long slender shadow – maybe a hint of a future me? 😉 Met my logging and calorie goals again, but chores will have to wait for tomorrow.
