2 - Run (or gym) 2x week - yoga 1x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4 - 10.000 steps
Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:
01/18 - DNW
01/19 - DNW
01/20 - 152.6 (+1.8) Post weekend gain, which I'm really quite OK with seeing that I was invited out to dinners on both Friday and Saturday evening... added to which I didn't do any sports at all as I have a head cold. So yes, I had a good time and I'll just have to deal with it over the next few days
01/21 - 151.8 (-0.8) 1320 cal, 8587 steps, over cal by 120 as I had a couple of chocolates mid afternoon. My daughter's returned from her school skiing trip, she had a nasty fall on the last day there. We went to the doctor this ayem as she's been complaining of pains in her neck and upper back so she has to wear a neck brace for a week or more depending on the X-Ray tomorrow. Luckily they think it's only bruising but as she broke a couple of vertebrata a year ago when she was thrown off a horse they're not taking any chances, we'll see tomorrow pm.
01/22 - 152.6 (+0.8) 1294 cal, 6424 steps. A good example of when you eat about the right number of calories but the wrong type of food. I had planned pizza in the evening and was going to have a salad at lunch time to compensate but I got stuck due to meetings and ended up having sandwiches instead so the combo of sandwiches and pizza just didn't work even with just 1294 calories total. I'm hoping today will be better but my schedule is a mess so I'm not sure how it'll go.Thanks everyone for all the well wishes for my daughter, I've taken the afternoon off to take her to hospital for the Xray and check with the spine doctor, crossing fingers it's just bruising, she was in much less pain this morning after having worn the neck brace for a day!
01/23 - 152.6 (-0.0) 1193 cal, 7636 step, all ok except water and not quite there for the steps, so I will try and achieve my goals on those two issues. My daughter's X-ray are good at first glance, initial diagnosis is mild whiplash and a specialist will check and get back to us Monday. They're pleased that there were no further injuries to the vertebrata she broke last year. On another note, the dark miserable cold weather is eating it's way through my motivation reserves, I can't wait for longer warmer days and it's not even February yet
01/24 - 151.0 (-1.6)1136 cal, 9094 steps, good day yesterday and a nice drop. I'm doubtful it'll stay that way over the weekend but I'll try my best. Today is already off track as I woke up at 4 am worrying about something and never fell back to sleep so now I'm craving sweets and I've already had a few, at least I don't have a dinner tonight for once so I'll have a plate of vegetables
01/25 - DNW
01/26 - 151.0 (0.0)
01/27 - 151.0 (0.0) 1202 cal, I'm quite happy with finishing this round with only 0.8 lbs gain after a weekend weight-in combined with the big loss last round
Yesterday I had to make a hole in my belt, and I think I'll have to make a second one soon. The weekend was quiet and I spent a lot of time with my daughter just relaxing or doing the usual weekend activities. The weather is horrible, either freezing cold or pouring down so we were in cocoon mode all weekend Sports was a no go, as much as I was running all the time a few months back, for the moment I've lost my mojo. I know it'll get better when the days are longer

My 63rd Round!
I will try again to drop back down to the mid range of my maintenance weight. I'm an accountant and tax season starts this round, so that means catered lunches on working Saturdays and clients bringing in goodies. I managed to maintain last tax season, but I was already in maintenance. Thank goodness for this challenge to keep me accountable.End R40: 171 (-3)

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 - 145.5 - There is the drop I was looking for the past few days.
01/19 - 144.5
01/20 - 145 - I hope I can keep my weight around here the next few days.
01/21 - 145 - OK, I've been sticking to 1200 calories and my little work-outs and it seems to be working.
01/22 - 145 - After the last few rounds, I'm happy staying at this weight to the end of this round.
01/23 - 145 - One week ago I had been stuck at 147 and hopped on the scale and hit 147.5, so I was actually very happy to see this number today.
01/24 - 145 - 5 days in a row at the same weight may be a record for me, but I'm OK with this. Since I've kept to my weight loss calories all week, I'm hoping for a "whoosh" over the next few days. I need to remember to drink all the water today.
01/25 - 145 - I drank all the water yesterday, then I ate all the salt last night. The past couple days I decided to try a really easy beginner plank challenge, because I saw someone on here mention it. I had never tried it before and wow, that 15 seconds was an eye-opener for me. I think I'm hooked.
01/26 - 145
01/27 - 145.5 - Last minute bump up from weekend salt and carbs. That's fine since I'm still down 1.5lbs. from the last round.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/18 165.2lbs, 35.8%bf; 7h50m/89 - finally went to get some antibiotics for this bronchitis! Not worried about the gain - had a lot of beer and a LOT of sodium Thursday night. Drank a bunker of water. Still trending in the right direction.
1/19 164.2lbs, 35.5%bf; 7h55m - all that water did its job. 😊 Had a good day, got some stuff done and watched an AMAZING hockey game. 🦅🏒
1/20 164.6lbs, 35.6%bf; 8h13m/89 - needed that sleep!
1/21 164.4lbs, 35.6%bf; 7h10m/80 - good workout, long day at work, good night once I got home. All in all, a good day.
1/22 163.4lbs, 35.3%bf; 6h36m/79 - won't be shocked if I jump up a bit and slowly come back down.... that seems to be my pattern. Still... I don't hate this.
1/23 163.4lbs, 35.3%bf; 5h32m/71 - worst sleep in a while... have been feeling down this week. Need the weekend to reset, but it will be a busy one.
1/24 163.0lbs, 35.2%bf; 8h2m/90 - caught up a little on sleep, but still feel sluggish and a little blue. Big day with lots of people-ing on for today.
1/25 163.4lbs, 35.3%bf; 6h58m/78 - my typical pattern... lots to do today, but no eating out, so should be able to adjust.
1/26 163.2lbs, 35.3%bf; 6h44m/76 - not nearly enough sleep. Was a busy, but good day. Looking forward to hitting the gym this morning.

01/27 - 149.0 - This seems a little more accurate. I pushed water (still not to where I want to be, but MUCH much better). Also ate a bit more to up my calories into what I believe is a healthier range. I didn't track, but just based on how I feel, it feels better. Too many days in a row of being under, I think. I'll try to track today as access to MFP is much easier from a computer (my app hates me or my phone, not sure which yet lol!) Hoping I'll see a good average going forward, even if some days are less than others. Going to continue listening to my body, though, and only track to ensure I don't lower my average too much over time. I didn't end up catching up on yoga as much as I'd like but I listened to my body and I'm only 3 days behind now. If I can get in a couple 2-a-days (lunch and evening?), I'll finish on Friday and be able to start February on time! I'm excited to continue as I've definitely seen an improvement in my mental health which, in turn, helps me stay on track with my physical health.
Edit: I realized I'm still waiting on TOM to come along. This increase may also be attributed to that. Hard to say as I'm missing the usual big bloat that comes along but I've also been trying to reduce gluten and dairy as both leave me bloated. I did have some of both yesterday, though in smaller amounts than usual. However, I'm not feeling as big and icky as I usually do after such indulgences. Guess R103 will tell!
Previous Day's Comments01/18
01/19
01/20
01/21 - Not at all bad for as long as its been. It was so ridiculously nice outside all weekend and my interview went well. Came back to "feels like" temps in the negatives so not happy about that. Have a phone interview today with a different place but I think I may be getting an offer letter in the next few days from yesterday's interview (based on what my recruiters said after he spoke with the company). We shall see. Nervous as all get out because I think I want the job they're interviewing me for today more than yesterday's but I don't want to turn down the first one and not end up getting the second one. And I have someone supposedly interested in me but haven't heard from them to set up an interview yet. Goal: DON'T STRESS EAT AS MUCH AS I WANT TO
01/22 - Salty, salty, salty. I had Chinese last night since I ended up working over yesterday and didn't have anything at home to make (I didn't pull anything out of the freezer, oops). Oh well, it'll go back down quickly if I don't fall off the wagon again.
01/23
01/24 - I didn't get a chance to post yesterday but I weighed in. Seems like today the sodium water weight dropped off and I'm back down. Really excited for it. Yesterday morning I woke up at 1am freaking out that I missed one of my interviews I had forgotten about. Turns out, that's here in about 10 minutes. Another video/telephone interview on Monday and I got called for an in person second interview with the company I interviewed with this past Tuesday. That will happen the 3rd. Its so exciting and nerve-wracking. But it definitely is keeping me on track with weight loss because there will be lots of beach days if I move to Texas before the summer and I want to be able to wear a swimsuit confidently and not panic or freak out every time.
01/25 - Whoa there, body! I was not expecting that, especially as this is a low I haven't seen since I started creeping up after my injury! Apparently the sodium retention for the last few days covered up some additional lost. I thought yesterday's weight was the water weight dropping but apparently there was more hiding! Not that I'm complaining at all. I expect a blip, this seems almost too quick a drop to not bump up a bit. Need to focus on rehydrating as I've been horrible lately (especially Thursday since I was traveling and weather was coming in as I drove the 2 hours home. Didn't want to stop to pee and get stranded!) Today is the day. I'm feeling a bit bored being alone in my house so I'm playing catch-up on my HOME practice (Yoga with Adriene). I am behind 10 days right now due to my food poisoning as well as my trip to Texas. I'm planning on doing 4-5 practices throughout the day today and again tomorrow as I have no plans. I have done 2 thus far so 2-3 more with breaks in between will not be difficult so long as I listen to my body. These 2 I've done so far have been SUPER refreshing and I feel recentered from the madness already. Definitely missed it. I want to get caught up so I can start a new journey come February and continue. I feel so much better when I stick to it (though getting started after about 10 days off has been a mental battle, I won this round!) Obviously, if my body says no, I'll just start a little late in February and catch up as I feel better. Sometimes, though, one practice doesn't quite feel like enough so weekends are great to start AND end my day with one and I don't feel overwhelmed.
01/26 - This is unusual as TOM should be here any day now (surprised it hasn't show its ugly head in my weight, bloat, or general grogginess yet). Another new low for me. I know this needs to slow down at some point and when it does, I very much expect a jump up in weight. Between my IF and attempting to go as paleo/primal as possible, I wonder if I am not eating enough. Have been mindfully eating but I may have to start logging again to ensure I am getting enough. This never used to be a problem for me! I used to always overeat! I also need to focus on my water. I definitely spaced on drinking enough yesterday and had a headache most of the day for it. No headache yet so I'm drinking water while my coffee cools enough to drink. I'm sure rehydrating properly will also cause a bump up, but I'm okay with it. This pace is unhealthy and less likely to stick!

10 day goal: Lose 3lbs and keep under sodium macro.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/18: 202.0 Weight is off to a good start this round, but my sodium intake was still too high yesterday.
01/19: 201.2 Yes! And I kept under my sodium macro, too!
01/20 200.0
01/21: 200.8 I felt sick all day yesterday because of pms, so I gave into my carb cravings. Honestly, I expected my weight to be much worse. Not that I’m unhappy!
01/22: 201.8 I was very good all day...until my sister and her boyfriend made a surprise visit with CiCi’s pizza and brownies (my favorite poison!). It was worth the price!
01/23: 199.5 Hello there, one hundreds! I have missed you!! Sugar intake was a little high yesterday, but my sodium intake was right on point.
01/24: 199.6 As long as I stay in the one hundreds, I am happy! I have been craving chocolate because of my oncoming period, so my sugar intake is still high.
01/25: 197.6 I got a couple of different readings each time I stepped on the scale today; this is the one that seemed more reasonable (all of them were lower). It looks like I need to get a new scale. I have a doctor’s appointment in the next couple of days, too, to discuss my weight, so I will get a more accurate reading there. At least it wasn’t showing me any readings in the 200s!
01/26: 197.8 Enjoyed a lunch out with a friend, though I managed to stay under sodium and sugar intake.
01/27: 199.0 Had a bad encounter which led to some emotional eating. Definitely overdid the carbs and calories! But, overall, this has not been a bad challenge. I look forward to the next one!11 -
Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 79.5 kg Ah well, the round starts with a small gain. Eating was all okay but I didn't drink enough yesterday and was a bit stressed. That's most probably why and it's okay.
01/19 79.5* kg Fasted 21 hrs. In between I got hungry but I managed to keep myself busy and it passed easily. I also started exercising again and expect the scale will move upwards for a bit the next days. But doesn't really matter. I fit in a jeans again that a week ago was too tight even to close. Now it's comfortable. I can feel that my body is changing:-)
01/20 79.3 kg stuck to the keto routine. had to deal with hormonal cravings. Halo top, more nuts and protein helped but only ACV stopped the craving.
01/21 80.1kg Fasted for 22.5 hrs. Stayed under calories, exercised and worked quite a lot. I forgot about drinking enough because of being busy. That's most probably the reason for more weight this morning. From experience the weight goes up in these phases but the body still slims down. Nearly by the day the trousers become more comfortable.
01/22 80.1* kg Still following my IF/keto plan. I like how my energy levels have changed and I feel mentally somehow more confident in general. Installed a fasting app, curious if I like to use it in the future. Decided to weigh in only in 3 days because I feel that I am becoming fixated on the weight and don't like it. Better stop it right at this point. As long as I eat clean, stick to the plan and clothes/ rings are getting wider, there is no reason to be worried about natural fluctuations of water. So I give my mind a break.
01/23 79.4 kg Couldn't help it and weighed myself. Fasted for 23.5 hrs and broke the fast with lean protein and soup. Took care of drinking enough. Life is stressfull atm but I try to take short breaks so that my body can relax and not fall into fat storing mode too much. Decided to park the car for the commute in a distance today so that I get in a relaxing walk
01/24 78.5 kg Yesss, finally a new low! I knew the weight before was because of more exercise, stress and not enough drinking, but still it's nice to see the scale move. I went pretty carnivore yesterday. That's what the body wanted. Thanks to having a random latte macchiato I stayed in the usual carb range though and was not lower than on other days. The carb count of milk really surprised me. Still a keto day because of the meat and no additional carbs.
01/25 78.5* kg Fasted for 20 hrs. Went for a longer walk despite of unappealing weather (yay!). Longer nap during the day. Don't know if it was the pork I ate as an exception or just the body getting back some energy.
01/26 79.6 kg Don't know what it was. Maybe I ate too much fat or pork - which didn't sit well with me. I should continue the routine and no more milk for some time.
01/27 79.5 kg No gain, no loss - but that is only the scales. The trousers still fit much better. I expected that at some time the loss will stall and it's always been much more difficult when I am in the seventies. We'll see what next round brings.9 -
@IsMollyReallyHungry Thank you for the reply. I'm not concerned about losing the weight, I'm concerned about the by-product of excessive loose skin afterwards. Call it male vanity. (LOL) One of the problems/aspects of our society is the impatience of waiting for anything. We want/need everything right now... weight loss included. And when it has taken years to put the weight on and we want to drop it all in a month, there are consequences such as loose, saggy skin. I watch YouTube videos of people that drop 50 lbs. + in a matter of a few months and their complaints about that loose skin. So I don't want to replace one problem (obesity) for another (loose skin). That's why I want to try and keep my average weight loss under 2 pounds per week. I know that some weeks, especially when changing diet, adding exercise, fasting, etc. will cause a sudden change, but if I limit them or be conscious of how they change me, then I can adapt. When I started this journey, my long-term plan was that it would take somewhere around 140 weeks (at a 1.5 lb. loss per week) to get to 185. Even at 2 lb. per week, it's still about 2 years. I have to be patient. I look at shows like *Biggest Loser* as cautionary tales about trying to do too much, too fast. Just my 5 cents worth.9

Male, 59, 5'10"
Starting Weight: 402.8
Current weight: 387.1
Ultimate Goal: 185 lbs., but realistically 10-12% bodyfat.
10-day Goal: 385.1 Obviously beat this by 6 lbs.
R100 SW 388.5 EW 388.2
R101 SW 388.2 EW 387.1
R102 SW 387.1 EW 379.1 Yup, 8 lb. in a week. Intermittent Fasting or this damn cold, don't know which.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 - 387.1 - Good start. Knee pain almost gone. Gonna try a little walking and lifting today.
01/19 - 387.1 - My knee finally feels better, but now I've got on helluva head cold. I'll rest today, but may try a little something later.
01/20 - 386.2 - Still have my cold, but feeling better. Definitely going to the gym today.
01/21 - 385.0 - HUGE jump over the last few days. From illness or changes? I began intermittent fasting on Sunday 15/9 pattern. A little tough without those late night snacks, but mornings aren't too bad if I drink water/sea salt to replace electrolytes, then coffee when I get back from my walk. Gonna focus that first meal @ 10AM on protein and last snack @ 7PM on protein bar.
01/22 - 383.6 - The only major change in the past few weeks has been starting Intermittent Fasting. I don't want to drop too fast, but I also expected a fast initial drop. As long as I can slow it down (w/ more calories in my eating window), I'll be fine.
01/23- 381.2 - OK, even I am a little surprised how well IF seems to work for me. I still have a head cold, so little exercise, at all. This weight loss is all Intermittent Fasting, so, for me, this seems to work very well.
01/24 - 379.8 - And the drop continues. Considering I was over 400 lbs. just before Thanksgiving, I'm very happy. Just getting over this headcold, plus starting Intermittent Fasting almost a week ago, this seems to be MY key.
01/25 - 379.3 - As much as I like losing weight, if the drop continues at this rate I may have to modify Intermediate Fasting and break the fast early one or two days per week. I'll give it one more week and then make those decisions.
01/26 - 380.6 - More of a cheat day regarding diet. But OK, since my weight isn't dropping too fast. Maybe one cheat day per week will keep me from dropping too fast.
01/27 - 379.1 - Stop the cheat and back to losing. One thing I have noticed is that I can feel my right thumb again. I lost sensation about 5 months ago and just realized that I suddenly don't have the numbness. I had heard IF could help heal, so maybe this is a by-product for me.10 -
You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. MaxwellMy goal for 2020 is to get into ONEderland and making it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:

01/18 264.2 There’s the water bounce dropping, plus a little more. Tom still hasn’t arrived, but at least I’m not holding onto water like the last few times it decided to be late. My goal is to see some new lows this round.
01/19 262.6 When I said yesterday that I wanted to see some new lows this round I wasn’t thinking that I would see them so soon! Though this could in part be to sleeping in an hour later than usual, I’ll be happy if I don’t see a little bounce tomorrow when I weigh at my new usual time. I figured out my eating schedule so that I’m not overly hungry by dinner time and trying not to eat everything in sight. My nsv yesterday was buying some new mean’s sweatpants in large and top in xtra large. The shirt looks a little stuffed sausage on me, but it will soon fit better, and I don’t mind wearing it in the house.
01/20 262.4 I weighed at my usual time this morning and I’m just happy there wasn’t a bounce up from the different weigh in times.
01/21 260.8 This whoosh is brought to me by another later weigh in. I was very tired when I got up this morning, so I went back down for a short bit. I am so glad I did because I feel 100 times better and have energy which has been missing lately. Plus it brought me this nice whoosh down.
01/22 261.0 The small bounce is okay, I was a little high on sodium yesterday. I’ve already hit my goal for the month and anything more is happy extra toward my goal for the year.
01/23 260.4 And back down plus some. I’m only a little bit from the first big goal I wanted to hit this year and I’m going to work really hard to not be derailed by the weekend.
01/24 260.4 I’m good with this, especially since I have some inflammation and soreness. My dog pulled me into a small hole last night, and I’m little sore from that and the extra activity I did. On top of that I had a seizure last night, the first in long awhile, and it has me all sorts of off this morning. Today will be a self-care day, I just have to work to not have it turn into an excuse to eat everything in sight.
01/25 263.6 I was a bit over on calories yesterday and on top of that my dinner was very late, high carb, high sodium. I’m feeling much better today and I know this bounce up will be gone in no time.
01/26 263.8 Tom finally showed up this morning, only about two weeks late.
01/27 261.6 That’s all but a pound of the bounce gone. I’m sure the last will go in the next day or two.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 163.6 lbs
01/19 162.2 lbs We were having a blizzard so in order to get my steps in I walked 5 miles in my house with family home, pretty sure they think I am crazy. Not going to kid myself that this is going to stay but hoping this means I am closer to my goal for this month.
01/20 163.4 lbs Hubby wanted breakfast, so I cooked and he wanted me to eat with him, which meant I broke my fast to early in the day and I knew we were going out for pizza and beer with friends in the evening but it was too long of a time to wait between and I ended up snacking and going over my calories. But it was a great day with family and friends and we need those days too, mentally. Still no exercise except snowmobiling but we are suppose to warm up above zero this week, hoping to do some cross country sking.
01/21 165.0 No idea what happened here. around 1200 calorie, made it 10,000 steps, IF from 8pm to noon. I wish I could exercise more. No access to a gym, hoping to ski today because it's too icy to walk.
01/22 162.8 lbs I did try sking but it was windy and raw on the face, snow is not the greatest but made it a mile. Hoping to ski with friends this afternoon, wind should be less.
01/23 164.4 lbs. Skied three miles.
01/24 163.8 lbs. Skied three miles. Under calories. IF 16 hours, if I haven't skied, I have been walking 2 miles and doing a workout this week. I can not believe all this up and down. What am I a bobber, at least I am not sinking. Though, this is the hibernating season and I usually gain and then the other seasons on the farm are so busy no time to do anything extra or eat and I loose winter weight, so I just have to remind myself that I should lose other weight this summer.
01/25 162.0 lbs. Skied two and half miles, a little breezy and cold. More wind expected today. I am surprised at this weight because I skipped supper and had a bowl of ice cream to stay under calorie. But was ok for calories.
01/26 161.4 lbs It was drizzling and making ice yesterday so probably no sking for a while now. Why can't the weather cooperate.
01/27 161.2 lbs. Wow, I actually made it past my goal of 163, with all that yo-yoing I didn't think I would end on a low note. Plus we went out with friends but I planned better at the beginning of my day than usual for calories.

01/21 189.8 42.7% BF 1654 calories total yesterday. At least the scale was under 190. Drinking a lot of water and tea today, staying below 1500 cals with plenty of vegetables.
01/22 189.6 42.4 % BF 1678 calories total. went a bit above my plan bc I decided to have some wine and chocolate after dinner. Woke up this morning with a fever and chills so I skipped the gym and taking it easy all day. Hopefully tomorrow will turn the corner with that! I wanted chicken noodle, but didn't have the correct supplies so made vegetable beef soup instead.
01/23 189.4 43% BF scale still stuck and I'm still sick! Body feels better but sneezing and coughing, lame. Final calorie count yesterday 1496. Drinking extra tea and water today. Aiming for < 1500 today as well.
01/24 189.2 41.3% BF total calories 1600... Basically a repeat of yesterday but a little better on the cold front anyway. I left room in my calories to have some wine tonight. That should help my cold, right? lol
01/25 188.4 43.1% BF total calories 1521 this is closer to my targeted range, but I ate a not very nutritional dinner as I was having a girls night. oh well staying under maintenance is the goal and I had spinach and raspberries with breakfast to balance out salty snacks. Glad to see scale is finally moving but my trend tracker is still pointing up. hope the weight sticks so it will point DOWN instead.
01/26 I don't know what happened to my post for this day
01/27 189.9 43.1% BF I am finding it hard to deal with this jump on the scale, I've stayed well below maintenance all week. However, I am thinking that I have some hormonal issues going on due to medication I have to take since having cancer- my cycle is running late. So I guess I'm just gonna keep on keeping on and hope it resolves. On to the next 10 days!10 -

01/18-172 Finally a nice drop🙌
01/19171.8 so glad to see a couple days of loss in a row 🙌
01/20-171.8IF allowed me to eat a burger for lunch and wings for dinner and still stay the same weight today, im cool with that😎
01/21-171.2 sweet. Didn't get a workout in yet this week but calories has been good. Need to drink more water though.
01/22-170.6woohoo
01/23-170.2 first workout of the week yesterday, feeling good about this challenge. Seems like my kiddos are coming down with something, really going to have to stay strong if they get sick, that always throws me off.
01/24-171 not stressing
01/25-171 went over calories yesterday but tracked every bite I took. Proud of that at least. Also my weight stayed the same so im not too stressed. Just have to be smart today
01/26-171.6I think this is from my over indulgence a couple days ago and also my salty dinner last night 😅
01/27-172.6 totally blew my diet yesterday.... I dont know what got into me. Getting my act together now....9 -
Round 101 EW - 172.8
1/18 - 172.4
1/19 - 171.8
1/20 - 172.0 Great weekend. Ate sensibly. Going to keep it going at work this week.
1/21 - 171.8 Monday was good. Found some dark chocolate covered almonds on the clearance shelf. Just a couple of these delicious morsels make the best reward at the end of the day. (Hard to eat just 2 but there are only 12 so I'm going to try to make them last - my challenge for the week).
1/22 - 171.0 This round is going great. I think I've found a plan that will work. I'm eating mostly the same meals every day which makes it soooo much easier for me. No decisions. Eating a lot of eggs (love eggs) cooked every which way with different bits of meat/veggies thrown in. No cholesterol problems so not worried about that. Throw in a good salad with lots of good veggies. A small piece of chocolate and ta-da the weight is coming off. Oh yes, also lots of water! (There are other foods involved but not on a regular basis.)
1/23 - 170.6
1/24 - 170.6 Ok with this. Ate a bit more yesterday. Happy there wasn't a gain.
1/25 - 171.2. Weekend + wine. Pizza tonight. I will try to be mindful of how much is too much. Babysitting this afternoon with 3 yr old and 6 mo old. Can't wait! No grandkids yet but this is good practice.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18 – Didn’t weigh, not at home.
01/19 – Didn’t weigh, not at home. Date with hubby yesterday and I took a break from tracking. Outback for lunch and we did eat blooming onion petals, but I only hate half of my lunch entrée and saved the rest for dinner. Then to the movies, but no snacks or sodas.
01/20 – 123.4 – Not too bad considering the weekend.
01/21 – 123.2
01/22 – 122.8 – Been eating my pre-planned lunches this week. Busy day yesterday, so I had a quick light dinner. Then when I finally got home, enjoyed one of my current favorite snacks. Vanilla Greek yogurt with fresh pineapple and a little bit of granola for some crunch.
01/23 – 122.8
01/24 – 122.8 – I guess at least I’m being consistent…and TOM showed up early, so I am happy there isn’t a bump up
01/25 – 122.2
01/26 – 122.2
01/27 – 123.0 – Celebrated my parent’s anniversary yesterday and went to a birthday party, so I had a few sweet treats. Ending this round up 0.8 lbs, but I have stayed in maintenance for another round!

1/21 206.2 -- Whew! My losses have been so slow compared to previous weight loss attempts I was wondering if my maintenance calories had fallen to a really low level. Nice to see this method (track, exercise, journal) will produce results
1/22 205.8 -- happy to see another loss! Need to be careful with calories today, though, as I’ve skipped my morning exercise due to a massive blister. ☹️
1/23 205.2 — whoohoo! It’s like my body finally said “oh, she’s serious about this, guess it’s time to finally get going”. 😁. I won’t expect a loss everyday, but nice to have momentum for these past 3!
1/24 205.0 — TOM and my body is dropping weight, I’m happy. Thought my body composition scale was really confused by my TOM, but actually it was just my account finally accepted I am a female and so it changed all the calculations. My body fat went up 10 percentage points!! But the ranges look more realistic now so I guess all is good.
1/25 204.6 — happy and surprised with another loss! After last round with up and down and slow going this one is very rewarding. Just need to remember it won’t stay this nice, steady down slope. The only guarantee is that life WILL interfere at some point. Just hopefully it will hold out long enough for me to lock in my habits first!
1/26 205.6— not at all surprised. Party for my 50th yesterday, gave myself permission to have anything I wanted. Mostly that was champagne, with whipped cream and crepes and chocolate on the side. First time I’ve been hungover in years. Taking it easy today, will work to stay under calorie target while concentrating on protein, and start back with good exercise tomorrow.
1/27 205.8 —so, another gain. Taking it easy yesterday didn’t help me, and probably had too much salt. Hopefully a day at work, more structured eating, and less sodium will see some of this go bye-bye
Goal for Round 102 - to continue to track, 😁exercise, 😁and journal. 😁Hoping for another pound (get to 205)👿 by end of the challenge.8
