Round 93, round 3 for me
Round 91: -4.2lb loss
SW: 95 lbs EW: 90.8
Round 92: -2.2lb loss
SW: 90.8 lbs EW: 88.6
Round 93 SW: 90.8 lbs
09/23: 90.8
Starting challenge late and have gained a bit since the 17th, the last day I weighed in. Had some depressed days and didn't make good food choices or go to the gym at all but I'm back at it now! Hoping to lose 2.8lbs in the time I've got left in this challenge, just to get a bit lower than my lowest in round 92 when I was still on track. And 88's a nice even number to stop on kinda lol I find multiples of 11 pleasing too. But the main thing is starting over, and getting back into a healthy routine again, numbers aside.
09/24: Didn't weigh-in
09/25: 91.8 Ate waaay over my goals on the 23rd and the 24th. Like 2500-2750 cals! I'm surprised I only gained one pound. It's looking like I won't beat my record low from last round seeing as I only have 4 days left. But once again, starting over, going to try my best to not binge on junk, stick to my goals and go to the gym nearly everyday again. About to head to the gym now and my eating today is so far so good. Can't change my mistakes but I can make these next few days really count and reach my final goal in round 94 still. Hoping to within the first week of November. Only about 4 lbs away.
09/26: 90.4 lbs.
(-0.4lbs since start of round 93)
Well lower than this rounds SW so that's good. Did well at the gym yesterday and losing the weight I gained quickly. Maybe I can still beat my record idk. Either way gunna kick *kitten* at the gym today and eat healthy 😊
09/27: 89.6 lbs
(-1.2 lbs from start of rnd 93)
well under 90 again and might actually beat my record from last round. (: If I lose just over a pound in the next few days. Already have maxed out my calories for the day, am about 50 over but if I don't eat anything else, do like a 16hr fast, and go to the gym, get a good workout in, the day should be salvageable. Just gotta stay strong! I'm seeing results again!

2019 tough summer, moving 92-year old dad out of home into assisted living, tons of "stress eating", gain of over 15 lbs in 5 months (May-Oct)
whoa! time to turn around!!!
Oct 21, 2019: weight at the beginning of current challenge (Round 93) - my first challenge here! - 168.8
goals for round 93 included: losing 2 lbs, daily tracking (under 1200 calories), consistent exercise, increased water intake
10/21 168.8, under 1200 cal, gardening 1 hour, water 4 cups
10/22 167.2, under 1200 cal, gardening 1 hour, water 4 cups
10/23 165.6, under 1200 cal, gardening & housework 2 hours, water 4 cups
10/24 164.2, under 1200 cal, housecleaning 5 hours, water 6 cups
10/25 164.0 (down 4.8 lbs so far this 10-day challenge! woooo hoooo!), all goals met (calories, exercise, water)
10/26 164.0, all goals met (calories, exercise, water)
10/27 164.0
OK, I've been stuck at 164.0 for 3 days BUT since I had such a big weight loss (4.8 lbs) in the first 4 days of this challenge, I figure that my body is just trying to catch up. I've been "on plan" every day this challenge. Yay!

My plan for R93 is to remain focused, log and track properly and see a loss of 1-2lb....
Still no kitchen - old one gone, new one being delivered Tuesday but then husband still has to fit it so will be a while still.... Last round without a kitchen went well so hoping to continue as I left off. no kitchen has made me very planned and very focused just buying what we need when we need it.... Lesson to be learned here I think!
Start Weight 135.4lb
10/20 - 134.1lb (-1.3lb) No idea where this has come from but I'll happily take it! Did eat well yesterday and also had a session at the gym whilst the girls were in their cheerleading session but nothing out of the ordinary. Will
10/21 - 134.5lb (+0.4lb) This is fine - not sure where that very low weight came from yesterday morning (can only think it was because I had a later weigh in than normal?) But I am still very happy with this weigh in and aiming for a 133 weigh in before the round end! Have a great week everyone
10/22 - 133.9lb (-0.6lb) YAY!!! Back in the 133's (in the UK this is 9.5 stone so for me a big milestone!) Just got here before my holidays in August and had a mini target to get back here by my grandsons birthday party on 2nd November so made it with time to spare. My next mini milestone (apart from making sure the weight stays off of course) will be to get under 130 by end of November (end of JGM10 Round 96) Feeling positive today (new kitchen being delivered today too!) Happy Tuesday!!!
10/23 - 133.6lb (-0.3lb) Well the kitchen has arrived! Now to get it fitted! Can't move for boxes at the minute though
So we are eating out tonight - have allowed for it in my calories for the day - but usual eating out issue of salt and carbs (Pizza Express night at the girls request) means the scale may be up a bit tomorrow - but that's OK.
10/24 - 134.4lb (+0.8lb) As expected after eating out last night so all fine! Todays meals planned and prepped and all looking good so hope to see this number back down within a couple of days
10/25 - 134.6lb (+0.2lb) HHHmmm - really not sure although I have found in the past that when I've lost quite a bit over a number of days I'll have a little jump up so hoping its just that. But still - happy with the number itself, feeling good and in control so it'll come down when its ready
10/26 - 133.8lb (-0.8lb) True to form and the weight goes down again!
10/27 - 133.9lb (+0.1lb) Seem to be on a it of a plateau - weight stabilising which is great! Tiny bit up from yesterday but super pleased with that as we went out last night to the London 6 Day Cycling Event so had a beer and some popcorn and sweets during the evening - tried to control myself a bit and its paid off!
Now to get through the rest of the weekend

10/26: 196.4 (+1.4) been trying to get back into the swing of things. Had some “life changing” news. Come full terms with it and know what I need to do going forward with my limitations. This isn’t a normal rut I’m in but I know how to get out of it and i will.
10/27: 197.5 (+1.2) not sure how this is happening. I thought I did pretty good yesterday. Back to the gym today and every day. I let myself slip and need to find my way back down. No excuses

Goal Weight: 295.1 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
10/20: 297.3 lbs (+0.2) … up a tiny bit over yesterday. Spent 4 hours yesterday raking leaves until I ran out of daylight and finished it with another 2.5 hours of work this morning. Tired.
10/21: 302.5 lbs (+5.2) … Chinese food was a mistake.
10/22: 298.3 lbs (-4.2) … Partial recovery from yesterday’s uptick. Yesterday, I started a new plan to hopefully improve my rate of loss, which has slowed over the last few months. I’m doing 16:8 IF daily and targeting about 1700 calories. My run this morning went well, though now it’s dark for 3/4 of it, which kind of sucks.
10/23: 297.4 lbs (-0.9) … Pretty much recovered from the General Tso combination platter I ate Sunday night. Hoping to make some positive progress for the remainder of the challenge with my new plan / lower calorie budget.
10/24: 295.4 lbs (-2.0) … First new low in a week and a half! Went for a run this morning and ran a full 5k distance for the first time. 40 minutes. Between those two things, I’m feeling pretty good today. The new IF plan has been going pretty well also.
10/25: 296.6 lbs (+1.2) … Bit of an uptick, but it’s more likely that my weight is actually holding steady. Yesterday morning I weighed myself after running, which reflected some water weight loss (sweat). This “gain” is nothing to worry about. Looking forward to some more downward momentum on the scale this weekend. Edit: just had a couple new pairs of jeans get delivered. Put 'em on and they fit perfectly. 6 sizes down on pants now
10/26: 293.2 lbs (-3.4) … Now that’s what I’m talking about! Beat my previous low weight by over 2 pounds. Very happy today. Had a nice, but shorter morning run today… I wanted to save some energy for yardwork this afternoon.
10/27: 293.8 lbs (+0.6) … Such a busy weekend. Yesterday I spent 3.5 hours working on the leaves outside and didn’t even finish. Today’s rainy, so I have to put the rest of it off for now -- at least the front yard is done. This morning I installed two new ceiling light fixtures in our family room and went grocery shopping. Ready to plop down for a while >.>

10/21 285.8 I did strength training yesterday so I’m not surprised that I didn’t have a loss.
10/22 285.2 I had hoped for more but I’ll take it. My nsv was adding 10 more minutes of riding my exercise bike. I also managed to walk to and from the market in the burger place without stopping or getting anything extra.
10/23 284.6 Downward progress is good progress. Today is hopefully a light activity day I’m due for a rest day.
10/24 284.2 I took it easy yesterday and it didn’t help as much as I had hoped because I didn’t end up sleeping well. On top of a restless night today is my busy day. Hopefully I can stay on track.
10/25 285.2 My husband and I went out for an early anniversary dinner last night. I went over my calorie goal, but under my maintenance calories. I’m sure this will be gone in a day or two.
10/26 284.4 Almost all the way back down.
10/27 284.4 Hmm, I’ll see what tomorrow brings. Most of my activity was very late in the day.

Hi. My name is Trina. I missed the last couple of rouds and I missed you all!
I had a double mastectomy for Invasive Lobular Carcinoma on 9/24. Happy to say that I am back at pre-surgery weight, and back up to regular walks. Unfortunately I can't do much else, since I can't bounce, lift my elbows above my shoulders or lift more than 5 pounds. Unfortunately the cancer was fairly large. I was told no chemo, and possible radiation, but due to the size I will get to do both chemo and radiation. Hopefully that doesn't lead to No-hair-vember!

@anatomyjanedoll I wanted to encourage you in your fitness journey. Working out and building strength and endurance is a great goal. I'm a little concerned about your weigh loss though. 90 pounds sounds like you already may be underweight and I don't want you to be unhealthy! Sending best wishes!8

5'6, I'd like to get down to the 138's during this challenge. Final goal is 132-133.

10/22
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.
10/25 139, no change
10/26 139.6, Feeling kind of demoralized, but I think the little spike is from all the salt last night. Even so, I'm having a hard time moving from 139. I've been eating less, but not tracking, so I guess I'm still eating too much.
10/27 141, yikes! I'm hoping this is the result of my salty meal last night.

I am going to focus on healthy habits. No more goal weights. Just focus on losing something if just a little bit. Unknowingly, I had slipped into that all or nothing thinking. So far so good. I will probably be back up tomorrow. Not sure I believe today’s weight, but we will see.

My journey … ("I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!")In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbsMy highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.:flowerforyou: SW 373.4 - 1/3/19 EW ??? - 12/31/19 :flowerforyou:Round 64 - SW 373.4 EW 369 (-4.4)

@anatomyjanedoll I wanted to encourage you in your fitness journey. Working out and building strength and endurance is a great goal. I'm a little concerned about your weigh loss though. 90 pounds sounds like you already may be underweight and I don't want you to be unhealthy! Sending best wishes!
I don't want to lose much more weight and be too underweight or unhealthy. I do appreciate your concern. I'm quite short and built small boned so it looks normal on me even if the numbers sound extreme when picturing an avg person. I've never been more than 100lbs so ppl who know me irl see that I don't look skeletal or unhealthy just petite. But yes, I want to build more muscle which will mean putting on some weight. Right now its dropping as I get rid of body fat and can't use heavier weights in strength training yet but my fitness journey is a work in progress. Thank you for encouraging my journey and expressing that though, I appreciate feedback and totally get where you're coming from!6 -
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.- 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.

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. 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.
10/25 – 181.6 – Slept in a little this morning and woke up with a headache. I’m guessing it’s the dry air and the dust now that we’ve switched the heating on. Skipped the walk and picked my mom up to do some shopping. Big dinner, dessert, and a really nice Bordeaux wiped out my deficit today, but I logged it all and will try to get back on track tomorrow.
10/26 – 181.6 – Another lovely autumn day! The brush has died back enough that the trails through the woods are reasonably passable again. Walked the reservoir trail with my husband this afternoon, enjoying the quiet and the bright fall colors reflected in the water. Ate just under my calorie limit, but sodium was through the roof. We’ll see what the scale says tomorrow.
10/27 – 181.0 – Slept in, so weighing later may account for the unexpected drop. Rainy day. I’d planned to focus on chores and grading, but wound up inviting my daughter’s family over for dinner and cooking up a Guinness onion soup with Irish cheddar that caught my eye a while back. Took a little tweaking, but it was totally worth the calories. Not much of a deficit today, and no walk to offset the extra calories, so I’d better be extra good tomorrow!

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.
10/25 116.6 one pound down! Tried on old size 4 suede skirt from mid 90’s and can now zip up! (this was back when I weighed probably around 105 using machines/light dumbells). Definitely leaner in legs now than then as plenty of room in hips, even though heavier, but can still afford to burn more fat around the waist (BF% around 28%) (it does zip, but not lose enough to be comfortable sitting - lol!) Definitely enjoying the increase in calories (1500-1600 target) so just need to roll with the slower loss/gains - with strength training/cardio the fat will likely be reduced with time, even if weight stabilizes here (body recomp time?). 30 minute express spin class today and may try to work in a regular bench press with bar + incline bench press ahead of time, as those muscles have recovered from earlier in the week.
10/26 115.6 Down another pound so almost back to recent low! Challenge tonight is dept Halloween party so will need to treat as a cheat day! Xtrain in the morning and dancing tonight!
10/27 116.6 Not surprised! Over calories with alcohol, but had a great time! Burned over 1000 calories yesterday, and over 17,000 steps, but definitely dehydrated and had too much sodium late in the day so expect a lot of this is water retention/food retention. Went to gym late afternoon for weights and spin class. New PR on back squat of 105

Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 - 67,8 - expected and content. Walked a bit today.
10/21 - 68,2 - meh...what is this about ? Not bothered :-) gotta keep on keeping on and enjoy my daily wins and active life. Lifted today.
10/22 - 67,8 - I wonder if this has anything to do with TOM approaching... probably. I don’t have enough data to tell (started 2.5 weeks ago) so I am just picking up info as I go along. Had a wee walk today.
10/23 - 67,5 - whoop whoop. Not sure if it’ll last, as I’ve been bouncing up and down the same couple of grammes. But nonetheless, I am satisfied. Today I upped my weights in my lifting session. And boy do I feel the difference :-) very happy about that :-D. At the end of these 10 days I will also measure for any cm loss, which I am pretty sure I can already tell :-). Have a good Wednesday all !
10/24 - 67,2 - eh... maybe it’s a whoosh from lifting slightly heavier? Maybe it’s because TOM arrives soon and my appetite has decreased? Or maybe I have eaten a little bit less carbs and it’s water weight? I’m going to guess that it’s the 3rd explanation. Now that doesn’t change anything but I am going to stop weighing for a couple of days since it’s getting to my head to drop too fast. Hope everyone is doing well !
10/25 - 67 - weighed in just because my official weigh-in is on Friday. But from now on and until the end of the challenge I will abstain from weighing myself and just continue to do what I do + upping my cals by 100 again. And I am very happy about that :-)
10/26 - DNW - feeling sore from lifting weights but good.
10/27 - DNW - feeling a bit bloated aka TOM is here soon. Lifted yesterday and walked in the morning today :-) great weather again
10/28 - DNW - very sore today. I am also a bit more tired than usual. Gotta just lift today and maybe a small walk, but taking it easy :-)
Update: well I lifted, plus a small hike and walked well over 12.000 steps... it feels really good even if I am tired now. I will sleep well :-)

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 93 (round 25 for me ) I'm in for another round, to lose my cheeky pre-Brexit weeks holiday gain.
Female age 61 5' 4”
Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !

Goal for Round 93: 73.0 kg (160.9 lbs). I am back again with 10 kg +- I could blame my thyroid and low energy, get out of smoking and just my age. But the truth is: there was too much eating compared to the exercises. I feel miserable at the moment but I don’t need hugs, rather a kick

Ready for my round 30
OSW 88KG
RSW 60.55kg (-27.45kg) or {- 60.5 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
Major NSV... My abs have definition (and I can't stop touching them 😂). I'm also loving the strength training at the gym so much I'm going 3x a week from now on
I've lost 60 lbs... That's 60 freaking pounds this year.... 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
10/20 59.95kg! Was shocked to see this! 60kg is my scream weight so now I'm working on my 'wiggle room weight'. I doubt it will stick as I was over my deficit calories yesterday so I'm expecting to pay for that this week. Looking forward to being back at work, back running and away from snacking from tomorrow.
10/21 60.15kg up a tiny bit but I've anyway been to the gym at 5!
10/22 60.75kg which is usual for me after a big drop. Food and exercise on point yesterday and 5am 3km run done today.
10/23 60.80kg which I hope is the peak... Now to get back down again. All on point and hard training at the gym.
10/24 61.1kg of up creep. Exercised a crazy amount yesterday with 2x strength training and aerobics but had to cut my run short this morning as my hip was painful. All calories in the green.
10/25 61.55kg for no reason. Going to keep on and it will come off!
10/26 61.55kg which is actually deserved after a huge late dinner! Painful hip still an issue but a bit better after physio. Going to take the wknd off from exercise.
10/27 60.0kg...i have no clue what happened this whole week, but I'm back down so I'll just take that and aim for even lower
10/28 60 kg and a 5am gym session done. Very stressful work week ahead but I'm sticking to the plan regardless

Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 180.6lbs 5h48m/73/10:26pm - not an accurate sleep score because I had a couple good naps during the day. 😴 Dinner out , so need to bank cals and carbs.
10/21 180.1lbs 6h13m/80/10:26pm - not the best night... dogs had me up at 3am. Training this am and then hopefully a normal, uneventful day at work.
10/22 180.1lbs 5h41m/70/10:58pm - Monday was not a great day; glad it's over.
10/23 179.2lbs 7h34m/90/10:27pm - never doubt the power of decent sleep!
#ALLCAPS🏒 #FINISHTHEFIGHT⚾️
10/24 181.1lbs 4h51m/69 (nice)/12:52am - Likely DOMS and associated water retention. Short night didn't help. Go, Nats!
10/25 180.8lbs 7h7m/84/9:14pm - good morning workout, productive day, and decent sleep. I will take it!
10/26 179.8 lbs 7h41m/NA/11:06pm - couldn't make it. Woke up to a stunning Caps comeback and a tough Nats loss. Busy day ahead... lots of yardwork. 💪
10/27 179.1lbs 6h39m/81/11:10pm - probably won't make goal, but not unhappy with the slow but generally steady progress. If I can stay under 180, that's a solid win in my book! Rain today again so it'll be hard to motivate myself to Combat. LOL
10/28 178.2lbs 7h10m/81/9:41pm - Good day Sunday; good night... training this morning. Hoping for a productive day!

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- 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 plan for R93 is to remain focused, log and track properly and see a loss of 1-2lb....
Still no kitchen - old one gone, new one being delivered Tuesday but then husband still has to fit it so will be a while still.... Last round without a kitchen went well so hoping to continue as I left off. no kitchen has made me very planned and very focused just buying what we need when we need it.... Lesson to be learned here I think!
Start Weight 135.4lb
10/20 - 134.1lb (-1.3lb) No idea where this has come from but I'll happily take it! Did eat well yesterday and also had a session at the gym whilst the girls were in their cheerleading session but nothing out of the ordinary. Will
10/21 - 134.5lb (+0.4lb) This is fine - not sure where that very low weight came from yesterday morning (can only think it was because I had a later weigh in than normal?) But I am still very happy with this weigh in and aiming for a 133 weigh in before the round end! Have a great week everyone
10/22 - 133.9lb (-0.6lb) YAY!!! Back in the 133's (in the UK this is 9.5 stone so for me a big milestone!) Just got here before my holidays in August and had a mini target to get back here by my grandsons birthday party on 2nd November so made it with time to spare. My next mini milestone (apart from making sure the weight stays off of course) will be to get under 130 by end of November (end of JGM10 Round 96) Feeling positive today (new kitchen being delivered today too!) Happy Tuesday!!!
10/23 - 133.6lb (-0.3lb) Well the kitchen has arrived! Now to get it fitted! Can't move for boxes at the minute though
So we are eating out tonight - have allowed for it in my calories for the day - but usual eating out issue of salt and carbs (Pizza Express night at the girls request) means the scale may be up a bit tomorrow - but that's OK.
10/24 - 134.4lb (+0.8lb) As expected after eating out last night so all fine! Todays meals planned and prepped and all looking good so hope to see this number back down within a couple of days
10/25 - 134.6lb (+0.2lb) HHHmmm - really not sure although I have found in the past that when I've lost quite a bit over a number of days I'll have a little jump up so hoping its just that. But still - happy with the number itself, feeling good and in control so it'll come down when its ready
10/26 - 133.8lb (-0.8lb) True to form and the weight goes down again!
10/27 - 133.9lb (+0.1lb) Seem to be on a it of a plateau - weight stabilising which is great! Tiny bit up from yesterday but super pleased with that as we went out last night to the London 6 Day Cycling Event so had a beer and some popcorn and sweets during the evening - tried to control myself a bit and its paid off!
Now to get through the rest of the weekend
10/28 - 135.5lb (+1.65lb) Shot up this morning. I know its not down to my calorie intake though so don't need any Hugs - all is well!
We had slow cooked gammon joint for dinner last night (one of my favourites) so guessing its all the salt and possibly a bit of a backlash from Saturday. So I know it will come back down in a day or two - all is good!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/20 185.4 (+0.6) slight hike. Had wine with dinner and some slightly non keto wings. Hopefully this drops tomorrow.
10/21 186.6 (+1.2) ugh up again. Its probably just normal up and down but it's the day I weigh in at the doctor which wasn't a great experience last time so I'm wishing I wasn't so high. Oh well.
10/22 186 (-0.6) I think this hike is hormone related. I got in half a workout before I felt too light headed to continue. Will try again today.
10/23 185.6 (-0.4) I really thought I would have dropped this faster. I did my workout yesterday - maybe it's water retention from that? I expected to be back down below 184 by now.
10/24 185 (-0.6)
10/25 185.6 (+0.6) son of a.....
10/26 186 (+0.4) this is the first time in 6 rounds that I've not dropped consistently. I'm eating on point. Only thing I've added is a few drinks (with diet coke). I swear my body just refuses to lose if I have any alcohol.
10/27 184.6 (-1.4) ok I just don't understand my body. Fir the first time in two months I ate carbs and high sodium (restaurant fries) and had wine. That should have spiked me. But instead I dropped. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
10/28 186 (+1.4) this is getting a bit old.

10/28 - DNW - At bf's so no scale. I feel so fat and bloated in the belly. I put on a fresh pair of jeans (not stretched out from wearing) and my belly was sticking out like crazy. It always does, but today it felt like it was so much worse. I'm going to try to get back to my running plan this week. I have leftover pizza for lunch from last night (either that or no lunch/vending machine snacks). Have dinner and lunch set up for tonight and tomorrow. This will give me time to thaw something from my freezer to make for the rest of the week. I'm super poor so have to make due with what I have which, thankfully, is mostly healthy. Just frozen to keep for longer (: Plus, that four-letter s-word that comes around in winter is supposed to show its ugly head this week so its officially soup season in my house. I love soups since its so easy to slip in extra vegetables and make them super healthy! Plus, they're warm and delicious and filling for much less than my normal meals. This is my time to shine! I'm convinced of it!

Previous Day's Comments10/20
10/21 - Still battling the remnants of the sinus infection from last round. Friday was so horrid I couldn't even get out of bed. The pressure was the worst I've ever felt in my life. Friday night/Saturday morning the sinus pressure ended up draining into my chest and now I have a horrid cough and my ribs are starting to hurt. Think I'm coughing so much I'm bruising ribs (I've done it before). Still trying to get all the gunk out that's still hiding in the corners of my sinuses and chest but feeling a bit better outside the cough. Today I'm trying to push fluids as I haven't been very good at that this weekend. Didn't weigh just because I know my body is out of whack. Been focusing on tea with honey and soups which equals high sodium. Plus, me being sick always equates to water retention. No need to get down on myself when my body is just doing its job to keep alive.
10/22 - Not where I want to be, but I'm working on it slowly. I was under calories yesterday and didn't feel the slightest bit deprived so that's a good sign! The remainder of this week is going to be extremely busy and I have my first live college football game on Saturday. Going to try to be mindful, but also save money. Tonight my little neighborhood of 5 people is having a going away BBQ/gathering for our landlord (property manager is staying with us!). I made spinach artichoke dip and my neighbor made a veggie-heavy pasta salad. Portions and mindfulness will be key for me. Goal today is to hit my steps (7000), which I haven't done in a few days. I'm finally standing again at my desk now that I don't feel so fatigued and can breathe quite a bit better. Its going to be a great day! Side note: I wish my work days didn't become so busy after yesterday because I really want to resume my 5k training now that the sinus infection is LONG GONE. I'll try to walk instead.
10/23 - BBQ went well last night but I definitely overate and had a lot of sodium. Lunch was out, as well, since I had vendors and they needed food. Water was not good at all. Today will be better on water, hopefully, since I'm prepared. Lunch is catered but I'm better about sitting down and eating slow and mindful during meetings. Steps should be okay since I easily met them yesterday. Hoping today will be overall good and I can drop this water weight quickly.
10/24 - much better!
10/25 - Rather shocked, but happy, I didn't go up. Yesterday was a mess food-wise. I portioned breakfast and lunch as best I could. Breakfast was Sonic (en route to Kansas City for work) and so I only ate half (due to calories...oh my!) and was still hungry. So I had a couple granola snack bars to hold me until our BBQ lunch. I did indulge in a cookie at lunch, though. Barely any walking as I was in training all day. Dinner was my ham&bean soup. I didn't add any salt, but the ham is already almost too salty for my taste. Luckily, the beans and veggies cover it up well and must have helped with water weight. I was shy 8oz on water yesterday. One of my best days for being stuck in a classroom and driving 2hrs each way (I hate having to stop to use the bathroom during such a short drive). Today I should get my walking in as I'm back at the plant. Tomorrow, as well, since I'm going to a football game. We are tailgating with some friends before so I'll eat some healthier options and not have to rely on concessions so much. Saves money, too! See y'all on Monday!!

Round 92 wasn’t the worst of the the last few rounds. I’m going to keep joining though and keep trying. I have decided to leave money at home, and set a timer at work so I remember to actually drink the water I pour everyday.
Day/Weight/Comment
Oct 20 - 189.8- had an active day yesterday and managed to eat within reason. Today I am going to start logging consistently again.
Oct 21 - 185.6 - this is due to the fact that I got my water in yesterday I’m sure, but I’ll take it!
Oct 22 - 190.4 - this makes more sense to me than yesterday’s.
Oct 23 - 189.6 - I am trying very hard to be consistent, get my water in and eat within reason. The work lunches and snacks make it difficult.
