So so day yesterday, including Thai frestaurant for lunch with friend, so sodium galore. Of course there are several holiday events coming up the next week, so as long as I don’t gain anymore before the end of the month I’ll be ok.

12/20/19 - 176
Salt. I ate out twice yesterday and Thai food the day before. Not too overboard on calories, but lots of sodium — I feel parched and puffy! Nothing scheduled today or tomorrow so I’ll aim low. And it’s supposed to get up into the 50s today, so I’m going to squeeze in a nice walk! Have a beautiful weekend, all!

12/21/19 - 174.4
That’s a little better. I don’t feel so bloated — more water, less salt! I am planning to bake this afternoon but will try to leave the taste testing to my skinny DH. I’m also determined to stay away from malls the next 7 days! Good luck to those of you who still have shopping to do. Enjoy the weekend. Happy Solstice! ❄️🌞🌬⛸🛷☀️❄️

12/22/19 - 176
No surprise - a friend took me out for 🌮. DH taking me out for birthday late lunch today, and I baked 🍰 yesterday and will have some (more — we tested it last night 😋) so no hope for tomorrow’s weight, but that’s ok. I’ll straighten up after Christmas.

12/23/19 - 176
Yep. Dinner out last night plus birthday cake plus neighbor brought cookies and stayed for coffee, so I had to eat a couple! All fine. I probably should quit watching The Great British Baking Show, though. 🤪

Round 99 (my 31st)

OSW 382.0
RSW 266.2

My goal this round is not to bounce up too much from all the holiday food. I’m continuing my diet break until the 1st.

12/19 263.2 No idea where this came from. I’m thinking that as tom has left so has some water weight. I’m sure I’ll bounce all over this round.

12/20 DNW I’m getting a new scale today, even with new batteries, in the same location as always, it cannot give myself or my husband a solid weight.

12/21 265.0 I forgot to pick up the new scale yesterday, but I’m going out later today or tomorrow and will pick it up then. On the plus side I managed to get a solid weigh in today. My kids want to make sugar cookies and the recipe makes a lot of cookies. I’ve decided that I’ll divide up the dough so that we can make a few cookies over several nights instead of having a whole bunch that are gone in a day.

12/22 268.8 Finally got the new scale last night and we’ll see how the trend goes over the next few days.

12/19 180.9 Yessss! I guess this is what McDonald's and Pizza Hut on the same day does LOL Could've used this loss yesterday but oh well! I'm going to be visiting family on the 26th-30th so probably won't be able to weigh in. I'm going to go hard until then and try reaaally hard to maintain a deficit while travelling.
12/20 180.8 I feel like I'm unstuck! Let's hope it lasts and I can reach my goal of getting back into the 170s by the end of the round!
12/21 180.8
12/22 181.8 Whoaaa! Get back down!

Female, 58 yy, 4'11''
OSW: 177.1 lbs
LTG: 105 - 110.0 lbs and BF 23-25% (or lower, we’ll see :-)
STG: 110 (maintain), BF <26%

Goals for 10 Day Challenge: stay at or below 110 !!! (maintain)

Day/Weight/Comment
EW round 98: 110.6, BF 26.3%

Day/Weight/Comment

12/19 110.4, BF 26.3% A tiny drop for the start of the round! Hoping to get back to the low of last round (ended on a gain) before the holidays, but that will be challenging with the weekend ahead!!! Went to step class this morning and had some time before meeting the trainer so did a 20 minute FTP test on the spin bike to see power on the bikes there - interesting that the numbers between gyms are so different (about 75 watts). Will focus on relative improvements, although a watt should be a watt... Had session with trainer and arms and glutes are definitely sore now! Calories are good for the day, although over on fat and under on carbs.

12/20 110.2, BF 26.2% Another drop in the right direction! Hope to maintain this over the weekend (need to watch sodium, wine, calories!!!) but no plans for eating out so that should help!!! Spin class today and maybe a couple of targeted chest/leg exercises for muscle groups that have recovered from strength training Tuesday!!!

12/21 110.4, BF26.3% up a little but still within rounding error of 110 :-) so will take it as maintenance! Was sore all over from weights yesterday, and feel “puffy” in shoulders and quads so likely some water retention with DOMS. Plus the dill pickle flavored potato chips probably did not help in the sodium department as LNS (manage to not eat them during dinner!). Light gym day to recover and taking care of last minute Xmas shopping!

12/22 110.2, BF 26.2% Bounce - still holding around 110! Rest day! Will get some steps in at the mall for last minute shopping.

12/23 112.8, BF 27.0% Monday bump! Been here and can take care of it! Just a bit more of a challenge with gym hours over the holidays. Did get a great spin workout in this am and going to hit the weights later this afternoon and will have a 2-day recovery period! With yesterday being a complete rest day (did not even close my apple watch exercise ring) it looks like maintenance calories on rest days will be around 1495. Doable but will need to keep measuring and tracking to keep hit that. Really do not want to end this round with a gain following the last round...

69 years old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

We used to walk 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year. Then I had back surgery. Now I'm waiting to get my hip fixed. Hip Doc said surgery in April. Ugh! I can't do any walking or biking...both kill me. I see my personal trainer three times a week. She is taking it very slow and easy with me. That's it.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 99 (round 31 for me ) I'm in for another round, can't believe how many I've completed already! I need to try to keep in control over Christmas and the celebration season I'd like to stay stable during this round !!

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 aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink and keep walking.

Realistically I'd like to stay in 133s this round.

Day/Weight/Comment

12/19 133.8 – 15.09 miles walked yesterday plus 60 mins yoga, all macros well in green.
12/20 134.6 – 2.43 miles only walked yesterday, very sore today due to a combination of back bends at yoga on Wednesday & soft play with my two toddler grand children yesterday lol!! Bad day eating yesterday .
12/21 135.6 – 4.14 miles walked yesterday – rain !! A big late xmas meal out last night ate late & not healthy!! Why can you out on a pound a day, btu never lose a pound a day? One more celebration (tonight) and then no more until xmas day itself so 3 days to try to pull back before then!! But you know what, Christmas comes just once a year and then I can get right back on the horse !!
12/22 135.6 – 10.23 miles walked, all macros in green
12/23 133.4 – wow!! happy dance!! 5.69 miles walked yesterday ,carbs just slightly over but calories and all other macros in green.
12/24 133.4 – 10.18 miles walked yesterday, again carbs slightly over, but calories and all other macros well in green.




Have a brilliant Christmas day my friends !!

Do you take measurements? I’m terrible at that myself but if you are losing FAT and gaining MUSCLE your weight may not change but your body composition will. A pound is a pound but muscle takes up less space! - Jpv, 11/22/19

12/22 126.5 Before this 2 week trip, I had been hovering about 6# below my goal weight. I planned to allow myself to eat what tasted good so had bread at dinner each night and tried some extravagant desserts. That’s over now and I’m back to low carb. Carbs kill me!
12/23 124.5 OMAD yesterday, fasting today until tomorrow for traditional Christmas Eve pizza.
12/24 124.0 My fast only lasted 27.5 hours - coffee, tea, water, homemade chicken broth. I added pink Himalayan salt to the broth so may be hanging on to water. That’s okay, I’m fighting a head cold and feel as if my face will explode. Pizza tonight with the fam. I will eat toppings and a salad.
