104 GW: 133
02/07 134.4 I was determined not to go up between the end of one round and the start of the next!! So yay! Lunch out so I'm planning to eat sensibly...
02/08 134.4 I better buckle down. I didn't log yesterday because I went out for lunch and have no idea what the calories were. I simply have to end the round lower than I started. With my knee hurting and long work hours I haven't done the elliptical. I should make time for that.
02/09 134. Elliptical yesterday and knee didn't hurt (more)! Also, stayed firm and had no alcohol inspire of people strongly suggesting I would like a drink! Who needs a headache?
02/10 133.6 I'm happy I lost during the weekend, with all the social activity! I was super careful on the cheese and chips and dip over the weekend. Had like 3 chips! I wasn't very hungry last evening so didn't have a full meal. That helps too and I need to do that more often, and just save the little bits of food for the next day. There's so much food around but it doesn't mean it has to go into my stomach all at the same time.
02/11 134. A little stress easting, but mostly dinner was bits and pieces so not very healthy 😞 I have a migraine and not sure whether it was sugar or stress.
02/12 135 why???? Boo. I tracked yesterday and was within calories. But I did make this salty pickled thing that I was tasting so maybe that has something to do with it. Today I will balance the salt. We have to go out for dinner and I don't want to sabotage everything. It's Indian food and so hard to eat healthy in an Indian restaurant. I have four days to make sure I end lower than I began. I have to do this!
02/13 134.2 argh. I hit "done";instead of "post" that button gets me every now and then. Anyway, all's good. Hope everyone has a good day.

02/08 - 144 - OK!
02/09 - 145 - Up down up down. It's the weekend.
02/10 - 144.5 - Back to work, back to tracking.
02/11 - 144.5
02/12 - 145.5 - I have not been tracking. Work has been very stressful and I've turned to some of our tax season snacks. I posted breakfast in my diary this morning to try to keep me on track today.
02/13 - 144 - I tracked my calories and drank my water. I hope I can keep it up today.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 - 170.9 Boys went to bed an hour later than normal and I didn't have the motivation after to go to the gym unfortunately.
02/08 - 170.0 Gathered the motivation to go to the gym even after a long day of training at work. The scale messed around in the 169's before settling at 170 even. Finger's crossed I break into the 160's tomorrow!
02/09 - 170.6 Well, I let myself cheat a little too much yesterday. I'm surprised this is all the gain I had since yesterday. I'll probably see the consequences of last night on my scale tomorrow too ...
02/10 - 170.0 Awesome! No more self-sabotaging.
02/11 - 169.5 Finally broke into the 160's!!
02/12 - 169.8 Well, I self-sabotaged yesterday. Too much pizza at a Survivor lunch party. Thankful to still be in the 160's. I hope I can keep this for the rest of the round!t
02/13 - 170.2 Can't say I'm surprised. I need to work on my self-control.

I've had two off days. On Feb 10, I had 1789 calories but after posting that I had a lot of pecans and ham and did NOT track, which means I ate more than I should have - changed to ????. Then yesterday, I was driving home from trip and did not track at all - ended way up on calories. I also cooked a ham that I've eaten for days and haven't drank enough water, nor did I exercise for a few days. Okay, so here's my plan: 1) I am not going to weigh for 2 to 3 days - I just don't want to feel discouraged and skipping a few days helps; 2) I'm going to hit all goals the last 4 days of this round: IF >16; Calories <1500; H20 >64oz; Exercise minimum Row 30m; Veg/Frt at least 4/1 - okay, excited to get back on track today!!

02/13 - 145.5 - I was CONVINCED I'd be up today but I'm way down to another new low (2 days in a row?! What in the world...) I believe that is due to dehydration. I wasn't able to force myself to drink water like normal. I blame jitters and madness of everything going on. I was really carb heavy last night so I'm still quite surprised despite the water situation. Going to push water and eat normal today -- need to figure out dinner because that chicken and rice just doesn't seem appetizing (nothing wrong with it, but apparently my body and mind are teaming up against me to make me choose something else or starve rather than eat it). Oh well. I'll keep eating on it for lunch and hopefully finish it off this weekend. And maybe I'll bounce back up to a more comfortable number. This seems entirely too fast and unhealthy. Concerned its not body fat, but muscle wasting away on me
02/14
02/15
02/16 - Act: Trend:
Previous Day's Comments02/07 - It always makes me a bit nervous when I start a round down. The way I bounce around (and I seem to be doing that between 148.x and 149.x -- another stuck point similar to 154.x-155.x) I am scared if I start low, I'll end higher and have a gain for the round instead of a loss. Although that's okay, especially if its only small, it still messes with my head and gets me down a bit. I'm finally getting into a good mindset and down want to ruin that. I made crock pot 3-bean chili last night. First time ever making chili! We shall see how it is when it comes time to break my fast. I'm suuuuuper hungry this morning but I just brewed my coffee and hopefully that will get me through until its time to eat. I have to take my car in..again.. more $$ into this stupid thing.. only bought it for $4600 w/ tax and depending on how much today's work cost, I've invested ~$2200 in work over the last 3 weeks. Its kinda stressing me out (read: stress eating temptations) but I know if I get this job, I'll be needing a car good on gas that's reliable. And if I don't move before spring break, I'll have to have a safe car to take BF's kids down to him for spring break for all of us! Just have to survive the temptations of being in town. Especially since I'm planning on stopping at the store (amazing ad this week -- valentine's day meat deal and I need to stock up - haven't gone grocery shopping in about a month) before I head home so I don't have to waste time and gas going into town
02/08 - Was NOT expecting this. I went out to dinner last night with a friend and dinner was late, it was at a restaurant (hello, sodium!) and I had a beer (they're a taphouse, they make their own beers in the back of the restaurant and I was curious). But I will certainly take it! Gonna work on some glutes today (at home banded workouts and probably yoga) as I haven't been glute-focused and that is something my surgeon and physical therapist pushed hard for (my glutes/hips out of whack = back pain at fusion and puts me at risk for faster deterioration above it [where I already have deterioration -- don't want to speed up that process and require another fusion!]). Going to go get my lunch ready here in a bit. Going to cut my fast short as dinner was so late but I'm quite hungry. I still made it over 12 hours so I'm still getting the benefits of fasting and I'm making a conscious decision -- still working on not mindlessly eating but I'm making definite improvements! Also, would like to say that today marks 1 week since my last cigarette! BF is also trying to quit and even though we are in separate states, if he isn't smoking, I'm not. Its been so hard to quit since everyone around me smokes and I always get dragged in by those around me (I smell it, I see it, I crave it). But since we both gave up, last weekend when I saw him neither of us gave in (we are the only 2 in that friend group that used to) and I haven't spent time with my neighbor (who also said she wants to quit but its been super hard for her for the same reasons) I've been able to stay away. Saves money and my body! I still feel the hand-to-mouth motion craving but BF told me if I just push on my lips with my fingers, it helps. So far, it hasn't been perfect, but its worked well enough that I've stuck to it.
02/09 - I had a higher calorie day. Very calorie dense foods all day. I need to find a way to get more protein in without getting sick of it. I had a protein shake last night and pushed me into much higher calories so I'm quite surprised I'm not up much more than this. I like that a couple of lovely people are pushing for a 100g protein goal daily and I think I'd like to try 75g for awhile to get used to it before upping it to 100g, and then to 125g (which is a current calculated goal based on my weight -- it may change and I'll do that as I get closer to comfortable with the intake). Another lazy day before a full week of work (I really love having Fridays off, just wish it was every Friday haha)
02/10 - Late heavy dinner. It was spaghetti, but definitely ate quite late compared to normal and had more calories/sodium than I needed (but I was super hungry by that point). Boss is coming in today and he forgets to eat sometimes which means I don't get to eat at our normal lunch time due to us working together. I'd rather have a late heavy dinner and just fast longer today since it works out anyway. I'm sure this will drop off fairly quickly, especially since I can tell I'm just heavy and bloated. Started my BF trend yesterday -- I'm heavier today than I was yesterday but my body fat percentage went down today by 3%...this is why I never use the scan part of my scale. BUT this is simply to start the trend so I can report it at the beginning and end, not paying attention to the daily numbers. I wouldn't have been able to do that prior to this group as those crazy numbers would've spiraled me down and caused me to stress/emotional eat or start a crazy unhealthy diet. I'm not sure if the trend will work at all since these numbers seem so far off from my last bodpod scan (I have higher BF now than I did at 160 when I did the bodpod and yet physically, I look like I have less fat). Wish I could get another bodpod (free through the army) but not sure if they will allow veterans or if its only active duty.. I might have to check on that. Oh well, I won't know if the trending with my scale scan will work until I try it so I will give it a shot. If nothing else, I'll just have to go based on how I look/feel.
02/11 - And dropped back down like I expected it would (though shocked it dropped that low that quickly). I was so bloated (like a hard-belly bloat, not a soft fluffy bloat) last night. I did some yoga (YWA - Winter Blues and Digestion/When You Eat Too Much). Not sure how much it helped with the belly, but it definitely helped with my mental state surrounding it. I think its because I went carb-heavy last night since the chicken&rice soup wasn't thawed out by dinner (batch cooked a few weeks ago, froze half) and I only had ramen or mac and cheese available (everything else is frozen). I did have a halo orange for "dessert" and it was amazing. I'm back to being stuck on stupid when it comes to those! Better than a processed sweet treat, plus I can eat 1 or 2 and be content so portions aren't an issue. Either way, whatever I did, worked. It helped that I ate heavier/larger meal/snack at lunch and went lighter with just the ramen and halo orange for dinner. Wasn't super hungry after that, thankfully. Here's to another good day! Side note: I realized today I have to really pay attention how I place my feet on my scale. I didn't have my heel fully on the scan portion and I got 40% BF! I readjusted, did it again with my feet properly placed and I was at 33.1%, much closer to where I was yesterday. I will get this figured out. I did play with the settings on Libra and decided since I do these 10 day challenges, I will adjust my "smoothing" days to 10 days (it was at 14 days so I made it a bit more sensitive to each individual weight I input). It changed my goal date forecast from May 1st to April 6th! If that's not motivation to stay on track, I don't know what is.
02/12 - This is not accurate, though I rather like seeing the number. Its a new low, even if its a false low. I definitely forgot to eat last night. I was trying to pack what I could (they said 3-6 weeks once I accept and we'd work that date out once I start the admin stuff like background check and drug testing). I wasn't even hungry, I was just drinking my water like normal while I buzzed around my house gathering unnecessary things to pack away. Once I realized it, it was about 20 minutes before I put myself to bed and said it wasn't worth it to eat right then and face a potential tummy ache. So I had a little treat this morning so I didn't zombie until lunch. I'll resume 8hr eating window tomorrow and eat lunch/dinner as normal today. I'll call today my "feasting" day since I get to eat all day. With that, I expect a bounce up tomorrow and I'll be perfectly okay with it. Lunch and dinner planned out with leftover chicken and rice soup that finally thawed. Have a protein shake for a snack for extra protein and satiation.

Looking forward to more changes this round! I have adjusted goals since I didn’t meet all of goals in Round 103. Regardless, I am ready again for the journey.
Feb 7: 197.8 Wow! Didn’t expect that, although I finished up my period and had a good day keeping under sodium intake. I hope the rest of the challenge goes well!
Feb. 8: 199.1 Overindulged some chocolate! Thankfully, I am still in the 190s.
Feb. 9
Feb. 10: 199.9 Didn’t feel well the day before yesterday, so I didn’t weigh in. I think I need to up my water intake again.
Feb. 11: 198.5 Increasing my water intake has helped.
Feb. 12: 198.5
Feb. 13: 198.5

02/07-169 well thats a nice way to wak up! First time seeing the 160's all year 🙌🙌🙌
02/08-168.8 what the what!? Did a sort of OMAD thing yesterday cause I didnt want to loose progress but I wanted to indulge in a date night dinner, tacos and margaritas. I am shocked my weight is down. Wouldn't be surprised if it bumped up in the next few days.
02/09-169.6 Not suprised. Not mad. Probly the uptick from date night dinner 🤷.

02/09: 194.2
I found some chocolate in the freezer and I don't know why I ate it. Oh yeah, it was mint, Lindor.
02/10: 194.8 (+.6)I did get 64 oz of water in, my goal is 80. I got my 80 oz of water in today but had a training meeting that included dinner and it was pizza so had 4 slices and ginger ale. I figured why I wanted chocolate I have a nasty chest cold at the moment.
02/11: 195.8 (+1.6) Coughing should be counted as exercise. Its been nonstop for a couple of days. Figure a trip to the doctors is in order.
02/12: 192.8 (-1.8) I think it's because of this cold and I didn't eat much yesterday. MFP gave me *kitten* for such low calories. I did get my water quote in 80 oz. Spent the day on the couch sleeping and watching tv.
02/13: 191.4 (-3.2) I like the number but realize once I start eating again it will go up. My doctor told me yesterday that I have pneumonia and I just haven't had an appetite. The good thing about this is that I am not having a pre-dinner glass of wine, on day 4 so that is saving a lot of calories. I drank 64 ounces of water on Wednesday and still too much diet Pepsi. It's nice and cold. Exercise is non-existant right now.

bearly at my old job we used that saying, It's a marathon, not a sprint as well. You don't want want to give it your all at the beginning and peter out in the middle or end, but slow and steady wins the race. (I think I had more but lost my train of thought.)3 -

Hey everyone! I took a long break from these challenges, but I've continued to weigh in daily on Happy Scale and celebrated my small victories to myself lol. However, since I was hospitalized late last year for something that could've taken my life, I've been having trouble losing weight! I think my body has been trying to recuperate after that and plus I got the flu and sinusitis on Christmas and I'm still taking meds from that to this day. I want to have some additional accountability to get these extra 6ish pounds off that I've been struggling with for 4 months now since I was hospitalized!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07: 182.6 (I gained 0.2 pounds from last week! I have lost inches, and my smallest jeans are starting to get baggy but the scale has increased. TOM is coming on Sunday so I know that’s why. I did an intense kickboxing class last night and ate some potato corn chowder for dinner last night!)
02/08: 184.2 (I save some calories for the weekend and last night I made a homemade cheeseburger and some baked French fries. I’m guessing that was a TOM craving 😂. No workout yesterday since it was my rest day!)
02/09: 185.8 (TOM came yesterday afternoon as I expected. I did not workout yesterday as it was my second rest day and ran some errands. I had a bean burrito for dinner last night and relaxed!)
02/10: 185.6 (A slight tick downwards. I’m hoping for a lot of weight down this week! Let’s see how it goes! I did a Zumba workout at home for an hour and I had some roasted pork loin, green beans and salad for dinner last night.)
02/11: 181.8 (Umm what happened? 😂 this kind of shocked me! I think it’s the most weight I’ve lost after/during a cycle. I had gained 2 weeks back to back because of my cycle. I’m hoping it goes back to normal! I did a Zumba class at the gym last night and ate honey garlic chicken breast, rice, asparagus and grapes for dinner!)
02/12: 180.4 (I think I’m dreaming! I’ve been struggling for months and I guess I just had to come back to this group for my weight to budge. Only 4.4 pounds left until I get to the lowest weight since my hospitalization. Anyway, I did a 1 hour kickboxing class at the gym and I had Caesar salad and a slice of broccoli cheddar chicken pot pie for dinner!)
02/13: 180.8 (Not bad! I usually gain on Thursday’s because I do a Power Circuit class at the gym and I’m sore the next day from all the lunges and weight training. I had a very good food day yesterday and ate to plan.)

Day/Weight/Comment
2/7: 147.6 (+.6): Going to try to focus on macros and leaving calories in the bank. 😎
2/8: 147.0 (-.6): This will change. I ate well but had my weekend cocktails. My dang right hip is not improving and after running very slowly for 3 miles, limped the rest of the day. I’m sure it’s a temp injury but finally decided to deal with it – going to Airrosti on Monday. In the meantime, I will walk, do my strength circuit, cycle, row…..whatever to keep burning. Weekends are tough for me 😏
2/9: 147.2 (+.2) Walked 7 miles. Hello advil. 🙄
2/10: 146.4 (-.8) Think this is just eating under my cals. Had a very lazy day after my long walk – low energy. Hoping to work through hip issues and get back to my normal exercise regime. 😎
2/11: 146.6 (+.2) It’s going to be a non normal week as I work through my hip injury. Went to Airrosti – painful deep tissue work, but hope it will break up the tightness and get me back on the trail sooner. So I can’t run till this weekend. I will just compensate in the gym and try to eat a little less.🤐
2/12: 145.8 (-.8) Surprised I am down. Didn’t eat terrible yesterday but it wasn’t great – relied on protein drinks (plant based) to get my protein. I am not doing great at the macro tracking. Just trying to focus on calories and exercise. But the macros is where your food choices come home to roost. I need to get back into cooking. 🙄
2/13: 144.8 (-1.0) Hahaha….nice number but its just that. A number. I chalk it up to not planning well and not eating much after my first meal at noon because I had to leave for a cooking class at 4 pm, which lasted from 6-9 pm. I had planned to bring a protein drink and bar but forgot them. So I ate late when I got home, some chicken, olives. I was well under my daily calorie needs. But this is not a good thing as I am in the corner of, eat what you your body needs after a workout to build muscle. The class was fun – Truffles!!! Picture to follow….🥰

Original start weight: 178 lbs (Oct. 10, 2019)
Goal this round: 161.0 lbs and stay or be lower than for three days.
Ultimate goal 135 lbs.
End of round 103 2/6 = 161.4lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 162.2 lbs
02/08163.0 lbs
02/09 163.8 lbs. This is day three of major back pain and in order to medicate every three hours for some pain relief, I had to give up on intermittent fasting and my calorie goal was more like 1200 to 1500 the last couple days instead of 900 for loss. Plus only about 4000 steps a day. Thus the increase. Today it's a little better going to try to medicate less so I can meet a calorie goal of 1200 or less but steps are still going to be limited.
02/10 164 lbs Back is better but not great. around 1200 calories but only got 5500 steps in. Managed IF for 16 hours. Going to force the walking even with the shooting pain down my leg. I have babied it all weekend and it has made no difference. This is so discouraging. Obviously if I can't move than I can't eat.
02/11162.8 lbs I didn't medicate and calories were 808. Steps 12,800. Enough of this gaining business. Back is allowing more mobility, doesn't like sitting, so I worked on sandwiching my grandson's quilt together. Thankful our table is at bar height table so not much bending. I am going to work on hand quilting it as long as my back can take it.
02/12 161.8 lbs Calories 1005, steps 9,500. Back is still pinching, I am going to be so out of shape. But I did work 30 minutes on the quilt top than 15 minutes I had to move and than come back. So glad I have a project to work on. Or I would just be shoveling in the comfort food.
02/13 160.6 lbs Calories 707, steps 11,000 Back remains unchanged. At least this not being able to stay in one spot for long is getting in my steps, I just wish I could actually stride out and walk for a distance.

I mentioned in my post that I took a cooking class - Chocolate Truffles! It was on a whim because I have an unmet need these days for my sweet tooth. I will give them to my hubs for valentines day - maybe try one or two but that is it! It fed my need for creativity. They were pretty easy just requires patience in temperinng your chocolate.
