Day/Weight/Comment

11/19--206.7 Did too much snacking yesterday. It was raining yesterday, so I didn't get to run. I think the weather is going to be better today, so I will try for the run again tonight.
11/20--205.9 I was this weight 4 days ago, let's see if it holds this time. Finished w5d2 of c25k yesterday. Strength coach tonight.
11/21--205.6 Tough workout yesterday. Rest day today.
11/22--205.6
11/23--206.7 Yesterday I started to feel like I was coming down with a cold, so I didn't workout yesterday. Instead, yesterday evening, I decided it would be better to do a lot of snacking, so today the weight is up and my stomach isn't feeling that great. My plan today had been to go out for a run and take the dog out for a long walk, but since I am still feeling under the weather I will be staying at home and drinking a lot of liquids. Hopefully the rest will keep me from getting a full blown cold.
11/24--207.6 Feeling a little better, but throat is still scratchy so no workout with my strength coach today. If the weather holds up I want to go out for at least a little walk, I feel weird not doing much over the last 24 hours. Another day of rest for me.
11/25--207.0 Just finished w5d3 of c25k...that's a 20 minute run! Did some extra snacking this evening and didn't drink much water today. We'll see how that affects the scale tomorrow
11/26--206.5 Rest day today. Goal is to drink more water today.

11/19 185.4 I'm hoping to hit the 30lbs lost mark by the end of this round! Also 0.4lbs away from my new Fitbit!!
11/20 185.6 This isn't a surprise! I was feeling super bloated and barely peeing all day yesterday. All I know is that it's not real and I want it gone tomorrow so I can have my new Fitbit! ;D I'm also not too far away from my highest pre-pregnancy weight of 182. It felt like an eternity away when I was 212lbs!! Ah crap! Just realized I'm away on business for the last day of the challenge so won't be able to weigh in.

19: 205 Nice start to the round 🙃
20: 204.3
21: 204.5 Fitbit says TOM tomorrow. Expecting I'll see a drop in a couple of days, as it's my usual pattern with hormone shifts.
22: 203.4 Pretty sure this isn't hormone related, but with the timing it could be. @tiabirdie56 It really seems to be! I've done LCHF before with success, but cutting out grains and sugar completely is doing wonders. I feel better than I have in a very long time.
23: 202.6 ♀️ And there's the drop. Exactly 1 pound to my 40-pound milestone. Tomorrow is my partner's birthday, so we're going out for a late lunch and early movie today. I feel pretty confident about navigating my food intake though. After the movie, we'll be going to a few stores for errands, so I should also be able to get some decent steps in. If nothing else, I'll let him peruse Menard's while I walk laps. Wouldn't be the first time. Lol
24: 201.9 ♀️ Even better than I expected! Did great with food, but didn't wander through any large stores.
25: 201.7 ♀️ I was sort of expecting an increase today because I joined a couple of friends to watch football last night and went a little overboard. Instead, "I wonder what the scale would say if I hadn't..." ... Drank that bottle of red wine, then ate a snack at 11pm to offset the alcohol. 🤦‍♀️ I'm glad this isn't my usual behavior. Also glad it didn't derail me. Need extra water today.
26: 202.5 ♀️ Felt bloated this morning when I stepped on the scale. Not gonna fret though since I've significantly surpassed my goal for this round already.

There's no such thing as failure; only feedback.

I'm back, I like this daily accountability & reflection!

GOALS THIS ROUND:
- Lose any amount of weight
- Walk 6,000 steps daily
- Log all calories eaten

R96 SW 133.8kg

Day | Weight | Delta | Steps | Log | Comments

11/19 | 134.1 | 0.3kg gain | 6,494 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Ate far too much yesterday, including for dinner, so I'm not surprised by this gain. Though I did get my steps in and met my movement goal (by walking in place in my kitchen last night!) so taking some positives out of that. Drank loads of water but still feel a bit dehydrated so I'll keep that up today as well. Better food choices planned for today to get me back on track.

11/20 | 134.1 | No change | 6,766 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Yesterday was a good day. I drank loads of water, closed all my Apple watch rings and even managed a little bit of jogging amongst my walking (this is a lot of weight to run with, so I'm happy I could do a minute or two at a time). I did a little bit of yoga last night which felt great and really opened up my hips (one problem area). I'm still working out what fluctuations are normal for me so seeing no change on the scale is fine. I'm also still working out how many calories I should be eating so at this point I'm thinking I need to reduce it some.

11/21 | 134.6kg | +0.1kg | 6,045 steps ✅ | Food Diary ❌ | Busy day at work so didn’t get any exercise in.

11/22 | 134.5kg | -0.1kg | 4,695 steps ❌ | Food Diary ❌ | Day off from work, took baby to the pool for the first time (he hated it!) so was a bit more active than my steps showed.

11/23 | 134.5kg | No change | 4,943 steps ❌ | Food Diary ❌ | Took baby to the pool again this morning, so again I was a little more active. But still didn’t do any exercise to speak of! Had visitors and drank a bit too. Had far too much sugar!!

11/24 |DNW

11/25 | 134.7kg | +0.2kg | 7,319 steps ✅ | Food Diary ❌ | Still had visitors yesterday, so didn't eat well and drank too much! Back on the bandwagon today, and I'm lowering my daily calorie goal so hopefully I can stick to that & keep things moving in the right direction!

11/26 |134.7kg | No change | 7,314 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | I always seem to do better at the beginning of a week but fall apart by the end. I am just so tired all the time. I need to get better sleep, and more sleep! That's probably the catch-cry of all mums with young bubs, but I don't even have that excuse - mine sleeps through the night so it's my own fault that I don't get enough sleep! I need to get to bed earlier. Did ok on calories yesterday, despite having some surprise visitors and a couple of beers.

11/27 | 134.4kg | -0.3kg | 6,971 steps ✅ | Food Diary ✅ | Definitely ate my emotions last night, and only had 4.5 hours of sleep in total (which was very broken up). It was hubby's last day of work yesterday before he becomes a stay-at-home-dad to our almost 1-year old. Part of me is very excited and happy to have him out of that toxic workplace, but I'm also anxious about our finances with one income, and I suppose somewhat jealous that it's not me that can stay at home. I love my job, but given a choice I wouldn't be here (but since I earn more than hubby, it makes more sense this way). He went out with his workmates last night, which had me worried about him being hungover today and looking after the little one. I have to work, so he'll just have to suck it up. At least the scale moved in the right direction, though I'm not sure why!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/18 …..185.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

11/19 …..185.8 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1004 Calories In / 2780 Calories Out. 40 Net Carbs. 21,201 Total Steps & 8.97 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 12 minutes. I walked at 3.25 mph for 97 minutes doing school-hall walking and I walked for 32 minutes at 3.0 mph with a planned walk around my property. Total extra calorie burn 750.

11/20 …..184.6 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1153 Calories In / 2829 Calories Out. 133 Carbs (ouch!). 19,172 Total Steps & 8.11 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours (due to dinner guests) and I slept 4 hours & 25 minutes waking up refreshed. I walked at 3.5 mph for 101 minutes at the school, and I walked 32 minutes at 3.0 at home for a total of 809 extra burned calories.

11/21 …..186.8 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1826 In / 3172 Calories Out. 210 Carbs. 25,480 Total Steps & 10.82 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 2 hours & 3 minutes. I walked for 97 minutes burning 523, I walked for 59 minutes burning 324, I walked for 40 minutes burning 177 and I danced for 19 minutes burning 118. Sample song- “Centerfold” by J. Geils”. Total extra calorie burn 1142.

11/22 …..185.6 ….. I tried to “shake it up” a bit yesterday to speed up my recovery on the scale and it worked. Less planned exercise but I did take one long walk (2 hours). In diet, I ate lower carb and calorie than I have been lately and made each bit count with GOOD HEALTHY choices. Yesterday’s stats: 1030 Calories In / 2926 Calories Out. 21 Net Carbs. 22,028 Total Steps & 9.32 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 7 hours & 49 minutes to make up for the night before. Wonderful! I took a 2 hours walk in the school halls for an extra burn of 699. Have a great weekend everyone!

11/23 …..185.2 ….. Yesterday’s stats: 1400 Calories In / 2871 Calories Out. 86 Net Carbs. 22,215 Total Steps & 9.4 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 14 minutes & woke up feeling good. I rigorously cleaned tourist cabins for 23 minutes, walked at the school for 129 minutes at about 3.5 mph and I danced for 27 minutes. Sample song “Stronger” by Kelly Clarkson. Total extra calorie burn was 1078.

11/24 …..185.0 ….. Yay! Another small drop. Yesterday’s stats: 1235 Calories In / 2733 Calories Out. 24 Net Carbs. 17,144 Total Steps & 7.25 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 54 minutes. I rigorously cleaned a tourist cabin for 27 minutes burning 121 cals & I walked for 71 minutes burning 387 cals. Total extra calorie burn 508. More time socializing and less time exercising, but that does a body good too!

11/25 …..183.6 ….. I am just so happy with that today. Pleased that the hard work is catching up to me. Can I get through the next 2 days of travel without too much over-indulgence & self-sabotage? Honestly, I don’t think so, but knowledge is power so that will help. Strategy? Maybe choose one of the days to stay diligent, go bunless etc and allow myself to enjoy the offerings of a big city on the other. My family Thanksgiving dinner is not until Saturday so that will affect the next round, not this one. Yesterday’s stats: 1156 Calories In / 2672 Calories Out. 29 Net Carbs. 15,317 Total Steps & 6.48 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 24 minutes. I walked for 33 minutes burning 184 cals and I did low-impact aerobics for 32 minutes burning 227 cals. Total extra planned calorie burn was 411. This weight gets me just over goal for the round and I’m thrilled. If I could just hold onto it!

11/26 …..184.0 ….. Travel Day. First travel was cancelled, then reinstated with a very late start so I am posting tonight now that I’m home. I’m not sure what happened with the scale this morning. Everything went perfectly yesterday. I stuck strictly to my eating plan & even got in extra exercise & activity. I do admit that I was low on water and sleep (as usual) but otherwise, a perfect day! I guess I’ll call it a normal fluctuation, perhaps from activity. Yesterday’s stats: 1286 Calories In/2800 Calories Out. 33 Net Carbs. 22,170 Total Steps & 9.38 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 25 minutes. I danced for 24 minutes burning 136 cals, I walked for 108 minutes at 3.0 mph burning 582 cals, I walked another 40 minutes burning 195 cals, and I did another dance session for 23 minutes burning 138 cals. Sample song- “You make my dreams come true.” By Hall & Oates. Total extra calorie burn was 1051. I typed my weight in neutral black because I know I did everything right. Travel plans cancelled for tomorrow, thank Goodness. I kept my quantity within reason during today's travel, but my choices were another story! I'm just so glad it won’t be two days in a row!


11/27 …..xxxxx …..
11/28 …..xxxxx …..

Ready for my round 33
OSW 88KG
RSW 59.45 kg (-28.55kg) or {- 62.9lbs}
Goal... Less than I started

11/19 59.95kg.not worried as I usually start the week like this and my body was totally empty after my tummy issues! 😳
11/20 60.15kg and I jumped off quickly before it changed its mind. Was high on calories yesterday but that will probably show up tomorrow. Gym crazy busy this morning.
11/21 60.75kg deserved and expected as calories at the high end. Need to get a handle on after work before dinner snacking which is a new issue this month!
11/22 60.15kg and a killer session in the gym. So ready for the weekend
11/23 60.3kg....scale couldn't choose between 60.15 and 60.45 so I split the difference.
11/24 60.15 kg which still leaves me up for the round so far and no real change since this time in October. So looking at the NSV.- since I started in January I have lost 8 inches from my chest (still a D-cup😉), 9.5 from both my waist and hips, and 5.5 from each thigh! I started out a size 18 and now wear a size 12 (UK size which is 38 in Euro and 8 in US) and sometimes a 10. 6 weeks until the end of the year and only 2 kg to get off...
11/25 61.25kg after a revolting eating day yesterday with massive overdose of calories for no reason. It will go up for a few days so I need to focus on getting back under for Sunday my weigh in day. Going back to basic keto and no snacks. Gym done already today.
11/26 60.75kg. Was perfect on calories and macros yesterday and no snacking at all. Going to do the same today.
11/27 61.75kg was going for a loss after another good day. It will come. The gym was conquered!
11/28

@IsMollyReallyHungry – I really feel for you, my Dad is in a care home & I have 5 siblings, one has even made the decision not to see Dad again, the others rarely visit him, mostly only when there is a crisis in his condition. I go very regularly – I don't ask them to go that often, but once a week would be nice for him!! It hurts me that my own family can be like this, but you can't choose your family and their actions. As you say it will be on their concious when the end comes and those that do their best for their Dad can hold their head up high and know that they have done their very best.
I am so proud of the way you have handled this Molly, and you should be too, you are showing that you are becoming in control of your actions and that food is no longer controlling you. Use this anger positively to help you be even more determined to stay on track, keep strong, remember your MFP friends are also a very supportive family, comforting hugs and support to you, keep up the very good work in all ways xx.

@TwistedSassette – it is so hard to leave your little one in the hands of someone else, even when you love and trust that person. When my children were little I too was the main bread winner; I was lucky to be able to have my lovely Mom have them whilst myself & DH worked. They loved her and were very close to her, but I really wanted to be at home with them. They have both grown up to be very well rounded independent individuals that I am so proud of.
Try to be positive and make the time that you are with them quality time – put your phone/tablet etc away, catch up on them after their bedtime, at least Daddy is able to provide the childcare rather than a nursery/childminder (not that there is a problem with either of those!).
Thinking of you xx.

I'm 39 years old, from UK and 5'11

I have set myself a new goal for 2019 and a new UGW.
Things are looking good for my revised 2019 goal. Happy Scale has shown a steady downward trend since the end of July, despite having one or two lapses last round.

21/11: 150.6: Goals 🌻 normal fluctuations
22/11: 150.5: Goals 🌻 Resting lol!
23/11: 150.6: Goals 🌻 Just hanging for the weekend 😂
24/11: 149.8: Goals 🌻 😱 I did not expect this. I’m sure it’ll jump back up tomorrow!!!
25/11: 150.1: Goals 🌻 Not too bad. Just a normal daily fluctuation that will go as quickly as,it came 🤞🏻
26/10: 152.6: Goals 🌻 This week I am getting back to some serious strength training. I am feeling the burn, and I suspect that the weight gain is mostly water retention from the extra working out. It isn't always about the scale number. Muscle toning has an inevitable effect, as denser muscle replaces fat cells. However, the resulting loss of size is the compensation. And staying around the lower 150s will suffice for now. It's a great improvement from the 170s I was at at the end of July. 3 more rounds will see us almost to the new year. Let's see what we can do by then!

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!

UGW - around 140 pounds - may change.
R96 Goal - To get back to eating healthy food and being more active. Hopefully lose a few pounds.


11/19 - 213

11/20 - 212.3 I'm in Australia so it's night time here. I had a good, healthy day although I was at work and I always eat less at work.

11/21 - 209.4 I won't do a Happy Dance just yet. My weight has a habit of messing with me.

11/22 - 209.2 I was pleased enough with the scales that I willingly spent the whole day cleaning. Then we had (homemade) pizza for dinner. I know...it was not a good idea. I chose mushroom, capsicum, sundried tomato, basil and chilli. I stayed away from the, very tempting, bacon and pepperoni that my kids added. I also went really light on the cheese. Hopefully I won't have huge regrets tomorrow

11/23 - 208.6 Very happy. I had a healthy eating day but I need to drink more water.

11/24 - 208.1 Drank losts of water today. Lucky it was Sunday because I was back and forth to the toilet. Not sure that I can do the same at work.

11/25 - 208 Not much difference but still heading in the direction I need to be going.

11/26 - 208.2

11/27 - 208 Felt really sick yesterday so I weighed but didn't log on. Drank lots of water and had a restful day. I'm hoping to end strong tomorrow, but either way I'm already happy with my progress.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/19 177.2lbs! Holy hell - this has GOT to be from eating out 4 days in a row, even if I am trying to make good choices. I'm sure I've had more sodium in the last week than in the prior month. Also, very little sleep these last days: 4h13m/58. This is not a great start to the new round, but better than ending it like this!
11/20 177.2lbs 6h16m/80 - training this morning... I am not letting this get in my head.
11/21 176.3lbs 6h33m/77 - it may not be a whoosh, but at least it's coming off. Good lesson to learn early on in my gym challenge... severely limit restaurant meals. NSVs help, too... a pair of workout capris are loose now - like, I can't wear them for cardio loose, or I'll lose them. 😉
11/22 176.8lbs 6h47m/82 - frustrated and upset. Will talk to my trainer, maybe cut my calories. B is not a happy camper right now.
11/23 176.8lbs 8h2m/91 - I want to cry. Or scream.
11/24 179.0lbs 6h37m/75 F me.
11/25 178.8lbs 7h0m/83
11/26 176.4lbs 6h54m/83
11/27 176.4lbs 5h4m/70

Round 96
As 2019 winds down my goal wt for Jan 1st is 262 which would give me a loss for the year of 15 lbs. I think that will put me in a good spot heading in to 2020. I will be 55 in a couple of weeks and it would be awesome to hit my goal wt this year and finally have a handle on this weight thing. A pound a week in 2020 will put me there. Good luck everyone and have a great round.
