Round 101 - Jan.8 to Jan.18
Female, 5’, 66 years. SW – 166.4, GW – 165 something, 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.)
After reading over the comments on the last round, and also noting that my invisible GERD which had not bothered me for a long time is back, I’m going to try to stick faithfully to “no food after supper” for this round. I don’t know if that qualifies as IF (12-13 hours) but that is what gave me the idea. I think that the anti-viral meds were not kind to my stomach and also the extra few lbs all seem to be right on the middle which gives my stomach less space so giving my stomach a break seems like a good way to go.
01/08 – 166.2 – No food after 7:30 p.m. last night and definitely feel better this a.m. though woke up a little cold. Off to the gym for a short session.
01/09 – 165.6 – Managed IF again last night, even with spending a lot of time on the computer. Gym was good though shorter (kept it to 1 hr. including stretches). Also used a much lower resistance to be kind to the body.

@beachwalker99 “I’m basically an athletically challenged book nerd” would also be a good description of me but I found I liked going to the gym. People were friendly and helpful and, depending on the time of day, there were a lot of people my age.7

@quiltingjaine Thanks for the info., I haven't really read much on it. So far it seems to be working well for me.
It is interesting to think back and realize how our habits and attitudes change. My parents always had a piece of toast or rye crisp and a coffee before bed but never otherwise snacked between meals. I think one of the big differences was amount. They grew up almost never having candy, ice cream, pop/soda, etc., so a little bit was enough of a treat. I remember them sharing a can of pop because a glass was enough - who would drink the whole can? - and that would be once a week, if that. That's where I struggle; that little snack becomes bigger & bigger or turns into constant snacking, so I think it's better for me to cut it out completely. I certainly don't need the calories.

I'm in for Round 101. I love this @GrandmaJackie .
R 100 184->184
My goal for the next ten days is to track every calorie that I take in. I will try to stay at 1430 which should allow me to lose 1/2 pound per week. I will up my exercise and eat a few of my exercise calories to keep me from being hungry. I will stick with the 50% fat, 25% protein, 25% carb WOE. I hope I will be able to control my intake without getting too hungry.
I want to up my workout game and am trying to figure out what fits in my life. I currently walk 3 miles per day but I want to get a more intense cardio workout and add strength exercises.
I am really focusing on consistency for both eating and exercising. I need a true baseline. All loses will be welcome but consistency is my prime focus now.
Daily priorities: exercise two hours per day 250MEPs, weigh all food and stay in macro and calorie goal 1430 (don't eat exercise calories).
My reason why: shore scuba diving trip in March 2020; I need to be strong and fit.
10 Day Challenge Round 101
Starting Weight: 203
Current Weight: 184
Current Goal: BMI<30 or 164
10-day Goal: 180
Date/Weight/Comment
1/8 182 / walked 30 min, incline treadmill 30 min, leg weight machines, swim 30 min. I am surprised how my weight varies.
1/9 187 /walked 3 miles Overate by about 1000 calories yesterday. all healthy food, but I think I under ate and over exercised the previous day. Also, I don't really trust my scale. I think I will try to get 500 cal per day of exercise, over and above my BMR. Gym today: walk 30 min, cardio above 70% of max 20 mi, strength - upper body. I'll use all the gadgets to try to pinpoint my exercise calories. Big dinner out at Book Club tonight. I'll try to stay with one glass of wine, only one serving of available carbs, two bites of dessert. I'll fill up on protein, as much as possible.

A few days ago, when we ate at friend’s house, I was over on calories and macros but the next day I really wasn’t hungry much at all. At the end of the day I compared and by not meeting goals on day 2, the 2 days averaged out to my goals. I thought it was interesting.
As a rule, your weight divided by 2 in ounces should be your water intake. So 102 ounces or 3.1 quarts.

Can I jump on this challenge? I got weighed today my weight was 242, up 10 lbs since Dec 12th. I was disappointed with myself because I was losing well since Aug and just let it all go to hell over the holidays.14

@gingermim Yes, go ahead and just jump right on in. Feel free to post your staring weight and/or your goals. Welcome to the BEST challenge on MFP!7

I told my walking partner about this group yesterday. She thought it sounded fantastic. She doesn't have any weight to lose but is trying to commit to walking more frequently. I told her she could join, we don't judge skinny people - we love everyone.14

So I am trying to get back on track. I reached my goal weight right before Christmas and then lost it. I am up about 6 pounds from where I want to maintain. So we will see what happens in this round. Have not really given it 100% or participated fully since round 97, yikes! This is my round to get my breakfast and lunches back on track and cut down on my alcohol.
01/08 - 144.3 Yikes! Breakfast and lunch were planned and I have not gone off track since Monday. Hoping to start losing anytime now. Have pretty much stayed right here the last couple of days. Ready for a water whoosh any day now!
01/09 - 143.1 I think my scale and body are confused on what I should weigh right now. I'm sure my body is freaking out that I ate a salad for lunch 2 days in a row, lol. I have been terrible the last couple of weeks and back on track only for the last couple of days. The first time it said 142.2, then 143.1, then 142.7, so I am going with the highest and hoping for another drop today. I would love for at least 4 pounds of this to be water weight. If I can get back into the 130's that would be amazing, but I am sure I have gained some actual weight the last month or so. I guess time will tell!

First time participating! Thank you all for the support, I need it!!
Goal is to lose 2-4 lbs by the end of 10 days.
Starting weight on 01/07: 190.2 (finishing my period so some of it should be water weight)
1/08: 190.2 Mostly stayed within my macros but ate 100 more than my cutting calories. Not feeling bad about it as I ate 32g more of protein and I had skipped dinner yesterday. Didn’t workout today as Wednesday’s are rest days for me.
1/09: 191.0 Weight was a bit up today but I’m not surprised because dinner was high in sodium. I was up by 5AM today and at the gym working bench/arms today. I had chocolate cake at work but stayed under calories today.

I'd love to join! This is exactly what I need to keep myself motivated right now.
My goal is to be in the 180s by the end ofthe 10 days. Over the past year my weight went up from hovering around a comfortable 170-175 range and I am going to get back down to that by cutting out my reliance on take out/delivery and drinking excessively on the weekends.
01/08 - 192.0
01/09 - 192.0 - I don't typically weigh myself every day, so I dont know if this number is 100% accurate. I'll update tomorrow with my actual weight. I had a great workout today at the gym and stuck with my meal plan. Looking forward to another good one tomorrow!

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.

01/08. 177.4
I've weighed in at what's typically my heaviest time of day. While the number distresses me, this change will provide a built in cushion of a few pounds when I'm back at my normal weight.
01/09. 177.2
No weight loss goal for the round. My focus is to avoid eating out and having processed foods at home. When I stick with this and get my exercise in the scale will eventually cooperate. As usual it will happen painfully slow but fat loss will happen.
