Jan 2020:- SW: 216.4



Jan 1: 216.4 - Day one hasn't gone quite to plan, but I've really only had a big lunch that probably accounted for a day's worth of eating 😖, and I don't plan on eating anything else (still full). I have tomorrow logged and ready, and will use the treadmill tomorrow as well. Here I go!

Jan 2: 215.4 (- 1.0) - Wahoo! Yesterday didn't hurt me too bad!

Jan 3: 215.0 (-0.4, -1.4lb total) - A loss is a loss no matter how small. Today is going to be hard for me, I'm home all day which means I have free reign and can do what I want (vs where I pack my breakfast and lunch / snack for work and don't have to worry about anything till dinner). Time to find the willpower and just stick to what I'd eat at work.

Jan 4: 213.6 (-1.4, -2.8lb total) - Wasn't really expecting that! Must be the last is the water weight from TOM ending. I'll take it though!

Jan 5: 213.0 (-0.6, -3.4lbs total) - Still going down. Wasn't expecting it. We had sandwiches (capriottis) for dinner and I ate a whole medium sandwich. Luckily it made me so full that I didn't eat anything after 645 last night. I've found that if I eat a large lunch, and then a smaller dinner, I lose better that way. So as long as my dinner isn't too heavy and I don't snack afterwards (I may have a piece or 2 of the left over Christmas chocolate (mmm lindor truffles and godiva)) I'm usually okay the next morning. I guess I'm IF-ing in a sense cause I normally don't eat anything until I take my lunch at work (1pm ish). But it's working so far so I'm gonna stick with it! I stopped drinking coffee like 3 weeks ago, but I'm tempted to start drinking it again using sugar free creamer, or even a scoop or so of vanilla protein powder. I havent made up my mind on that one yet though.

Jan 6: 213.6 (+0.6, -2.8lb total) - Too much snacking last night. Will be better today! My plan is to start using the treadmill today, I'm going to make myself do it.

Jan 7: 215.0 (+1.4, -1.4lb total) - Now here, I don't know what happened. I was within my calories, I drank all my water and I used the treadmill. Oh well. Gotta keep going.

Jan 8: 214.4 (-0.6, -2.0lbs total) - Down a little today so that's better. Stayed within my calories goal today too!

Jan 9: 214.0 (-0.4, 2.4lbs total) finally moving back down! Tonight will be treadmill night. Im thinking of possibly starting the C25K program, but I don't know how that will go on a treadmil and I don't have the confidence to go running outside. So we will see. If not I'll just stick with walking and increase my pace.

Jan 10: 214.0 ( no change) - This is a good thing considering we ate out last night. I'm hoping for a drop tomorrow though. We will see how this weekend goes. My in laws anniversary is this weekend, so I know we will be eating out, I just don't know where. Just gotta keep going!

Jan 11: 212.4 (-1.6, 4lbs total) FINALLY‼️ Seeing that drop that I've been patiently waiting for. 😁Gotta keep it going! Today is going to be a little rough. We're eating out for my in laws anniversary tonight and as of right now I have no clue where we are going. Hopefully we will get all this straightened out soon so I can figure out what I'm going to eat. Other than that its going to be a lazy day. Not much going on. Might go watch out NHL team practice today, the kids love that and if the players are feeling up to it they will sign autographs for the kids.

Jan 12: 214.0 (+1.6, 2.4lbs total) Knew this was going to happen. Just gonna chug water today and hope that helps flush everything out. Hopefully will be back down soon.

Jan 13: 215.8 (+1.8, .06lbs total) Well yesterday was a bust. Let's just say pizza, cake and McDonald's was involved and totally unplanned. Ugh. Best I can do is just to keep going. I know what I've put back on is more water than anything (some is actual weight gain too, I know). But I'm just gonna keep on keeping on.

Have done this for the last two months and find it helpful. Haven't lost any weight but haven't gained so hopefully January will see a decrease

Jan 1-13st 3 lbs
Jan 2-13st 3.5 lbs
Jan 3-13st 3.25 lbs
Jan 4- 13st 3 lbs
Jan 5-13st 2 lbs
Jan 6-13st 2.5 lbs
Jan 7-13st 3 lbs
Jan 8-13st 2.5 lbs
Jan 9-13st 2.25 lbs
Jan 10-13st 1.75 lbs
Jan 11/12 no weigh in Partners Birthday /weekend away Michelin Starred restaurant last night, will be interesting to see what tomorrow brings
Jan 13-13st 2.75 lbs
Jan 14-13st 4.25 lbs

did this for a month in August and then lost motivation when I hit a plateau and gained everything back and more since November. I'm struggling beyond belief to lost my last pregnancy weight from 2 years ago. I was 46 so I definitely see the difference in the ability to lose weight between this pregnancy and my earlier one in my 30's. I have about 25 lbs to go to pre-pregnancy weight.

Female; Age 48; 5'3"

Original starting weight Dec 2017:-180 pounds

Goal weight this month January 2020:- 160 lbs
Target goal weight:- 120lbs

Jan 10: 163
Jan 11: 161.6 - probably due to TOM yesterday. I can't seem to stop binging at night.
Jan 12: 159.9 - water weight I guess. I ate a lot so I don't think it reflects any weight loss.
Jan 13 - no weigh in
Jan 14. 161.0 - that's more realistic

Starting weight: 163.4 lb
Start weight this month: 147.8
Goal weight this month: 140
Target goal weight: 128

August: lost 1.2 lb
September: lost 4.2 lb
October: lost 3.7 lb
November: lost 3.9 lb
December: lost 4.3 lb (but ended high due to New Year’s)

(I use Happy Scale, so the losses above are determined by moving average. I will post my actual daily weight below.)

01 Jan: 147.8 (my lowest in Dec was 144.6) Definitely indulged for a couple of days at the beach for New Year’s with family. I expect this to go down quickly after a few days back to my normal routine....hopefully, anyways!
02 Jan: 148.8 I ate within my deficit calories yesterday, so this increase is either from DOMS (I’m still extremely sore from a hard workout on Tuesday), or it’s PMS a lil early? Oh well, patience!
03 Jan: 148
04 Jan: 146.8
05 Jan: 145.8
06 Jan: 146.8 —had buttered popcorn at the movies yesterday, ie, sodium-induced water weight!
07 Jan: 146.8 —staying at a calorie deficit, but more salt plus PMS still, so I’m not letting go of the water! Patience...
08 Jan: 147.4 Seriously! Admittedly, more salt again.
09 Jan: 147 TOM today, finally!! Hopefully I can lose some of this now. I’ve been within my calorie goal, so something’s gotta give soon! (It usually takes 5 more days after TOM starts-boo)
10 Jan: 146.4
11 Jan: 146.2 Surprised, since I had Domino’s pizza last night—high sodium
12 Jan: 146.8 Tearin’ it up in Jan! Lol
13 Jan: 146.8 Uuuugggghhhhhhh!!!! I mean, patience...!?! Within my goal calories...
14 Jan: 145.2 There’s some of it gone after TOM (Yep, takes 5 days after I start!). I’m still not down to my lowest in Dec, but hopefully soon.

May lost 8 lbs
June lost 1.6 lbs
July lost 2 lbs
August lost 4.2 lbs
September lost 6.6 lbs
October lost 2 lbs
November gained .4 lbs
December gained 1.8 lbs

Original weight: 234 lbs
End of month goal weight: 208
Goal weight: 180 lbs, then re-evaluate


Jan 1: 211.8
Jan 2: 211
Jan 3: 210.4 (going HARD so far, been flawless with the diet, and working out more intensely than usual. The goal is to see if I can keep it up for a month)
Jan 4: 209.6
Jan 5: 208.8
Jan 6: 208.8
Jan 7: 209 (this was disappointing, I've done really well so far)
Jan 8: 208.2
Jan 9: 207.8
Jan 10: 207.4
Jan 11: 206.8
Jan 12: 207.8 (I was under my calories, but my day was like 50% carbs, including 2 bowls of popcorn. I'm expecting this to come off soon)
Jan 13: 207
Jan 14: 206 (new low! Haven't seen this in a couple of months, so I'm pretty psyched. And the last couple of days have been HARD....eating the same amount, but much hungrier than usual).

Female 31 5'6"
Jan 2020 SW 246.5 (250 is my all time high )
End of Jan goal 235

1/6: 246.5
1/7: 245.5 (-1) 😁 under calories
1/8: 245.0 (-0.5; -1.5) under calories and not hungry or too grouchy 😉
1/9: 242.9 ( -2.1; -3.6) 😁
1/10: 242.5 ( -0.4; -4) stayed in calories. Got 10k steps but worked a night shift. Weigh in always higher the next day. Happy it still went down 😁
1/11: 241.1 (-1.4; -5.4) yay!!! Didn't hit my step goal yesterday but stayed under calories and felt good about my eating.
1/12: 241.5 (+0.4; -5.0) didn't get my water in yesterday and also had some adult beverages. Expected worse so I'm happy. Work night shift tonight so I will get in water. Weigh in may be messed up tomorrow.
1/13: 241.2 (-0.3; -5.3). Weighed in later in the day. Dog died and I'm struggling not to eat my emotions.
1/14: 241.5 (+0.3; -5.0) Struggled with not eating emotions yesterday. Didn't log. Today will be better.

I'm trying this again. I did it for several months, then got lazy. With the laziness came weight gain, so I'm back where I started.

Jan 14: 214.4 (-1.4, 2lbs total) I need to get my butt into gear. The month is half over and I've accomplished basically nothing so far. Time to get my crap together and go!

December was not my best month. I finally had reached maintenance the first couple of weeks of the month and then lost it after that. I am up about 5 pounds from where I want to be. Hoping a lot of this is water weight and will drop fairly quickly.

Jan 12: 139.8
Jan 13: 140.7 I am ok with this as a Monday weigh-in. 3 more pounds down and I will be back in maintenance weight.
