We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

2/17 121.0 Moscato on Saturday night was the cause of increase on 2/16. OMAD yesterday and only 1/2 glass of champagne at brunch. Sewing today with Aimee and Amy!

60, married, diabetic.
Round 104 SW 242.6, EW 238.2
02/17 240.4, blood sugar 127. Looking at yesterday's food diary, I have no clear idea why my weight jumped up, but the previous day it fell 2 pounds for no reason so I am going to chalk this up to scale error and keep moving forward.
02/18 238.4, 118. My scale is acting like a random number generator lately. That, or I am seriously bouncing back and forth on fluid and sodium. Two pounds is a quart of water!
02/19 236.2 pounds, blood sugar 142. I will not get too excited, the random number generator is apparently setting me up for a bad bounce here shortly. With insulin on board I simply do not lose weight this quickly, and I even ate baked spaghetti last night (hence the blood sugar number.) I did go out for a short walk during lunch yesterday (only about one mile, work is a panic right now) but that doesn't account for more than 100 calories or so. Still, I am not going to complain about seeing a lower number!
02/20 237.0, blood sugar 89. If I wasn't overly excited about the scale saying 4 pounds less in two days, I can't get upset that it now adds almost a pound. I am still down for the challenge. I just need to do the work to STAY down. This will be a long day of meetings and by the time I get off there will be snow on the ground, so probably no walking today.
02/21 237.0 bs 110. Well, the promised sow never happened but we got sleet last night and I just don't walk in that in the dark. So a no change day for weight is probably as good as I could hope for. The weekend will be dry and 50's so if I can drag my lazy bum out of bed maybe I can score a few miles before Wyfe even notices I have stopped snoring.
02/22 out of town
02/23 out of town
02/24 239.4 bs 83 Road food.
02/25 238.4. I have to at LEAST get down a smidge to get below the end of last challenge end point. Failure is not an option.

Instead, I had an emergency and ended up making dinner for my maintenance man (or he would have missed dinner.). I was at the high end of my current carb goal but did well overall. However, sodium………..
Well, we know what happens when we eat it. Yesterday’s stats: 1263 Calories In / 2530 Calories Out. 49 Net Carbs. 12,126 Total Steps & 4.28 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 39 minutes and felt very tired. I rigorously cleaned tourist cabins for 42 minutes burning 201 Extra Calories. I enjoyed a movie night last night which did not include any food or snacks. Just a cup of tea with stevia.
02/25 …..195.7 ….. On the higher end of carbs again and ate back my calories from over 2 hours of walking. Get a Grip, Donna! Over 20,000 steps. 8.6 Miles total walked. I slept about 5 hours & 4 minutes. Not enough water yesterday. I have to push myself again today on it. My goal is to be less than my ending weight last round, so I need to drop close to a pound (or more) today. I’m getting my head on straight and putting on my walking shoes. Busy day today. Tutoring for DGS’s and Hair appointments for both this evening. I will fit in as much movement as possible!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/17 - 168.2 Great day yesterday! Hoping I can keep it up this round!
02/18 - 168.2 I've had this weight three days in a row. I'll take it! Especially after how much I fluctuated last round. Hopefully I can squeeze in a workout tonight!
02/19 - 168.0 Still haven't worked out in a few days and somehow haven't gained anything ... I'm sure this will bite me in the butt.
02/20 - 168.4 I did a light at-home workout last night but I really excel in the gym. I'm going to make it a priority to go tonight!
02/21 - 168.4 I went to the gym last night! However, I was over my calories. I'll probably be today because lunch at work today is being catered.
02/22 - 168.0
02/23 - 169.8 My bad habits lately are catching up to me. Hopefully I can turn it around to at least break even this round.
02/24 - 168.0 Okay I guess yesterday was just water weight. Kicked my butt into gear yesterday.
02/25 - 166.7 Wow, all I did yesterday was stay under my calorie goal. Hope this weight isn't a fluke.

■2/17 - DNW- IF/23.5hrs. 40g carbs. 🚫stevia Ate peanut butter for 4 days to break fast, so I still need more time to conquer that habit. New last date for eating it is Feb. 16. Could take me 6 months or more.
■2/18 - 188 - IF/17.5hrs. 88g carbs. Need to go grocery shopping! All foods off the table for me, I ate. Also had an 8pm date with multigrain tortilla chips. I like grains, they don't like me.😅
▪2/19 - DNW - IF/16.5hrs. 22g carbs.
▪2/20 - DNW- IF/18hrs. 6g carbs.
▪2/21 - DNW - IF/22.25hrs. 19g carbs. I've been eating peanut butter this past week. Just easier to to use to break my fast when I have to be away from home for hours. Keeps me full through those hours
▪2/22 - DNW - IF/hrs. 59g carbs.
▪2/23 - 187 - IF/20hrs. 44g carbs.
▪2/24 - DNW - IF/20hrs. 151g carbs. Small amount of grain carbs every day last week. Brunch at Niece's house on Sunday, that culminated in an unplanned eat everything day. Not in an uncontrolled way, but "okay, what I have been wanting for 3 months (in particular cheesecake) I will eat and get it over with" way.
■2/25 - 187 - IF/14.5hrs. 65g carbs. Calming down from carbs now. Back to exercise too.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/17 OoT DNW
02/18 108.2, BF 25.6% Up 0.4 from Friday, so actually pretty good given eating out over the long weekend and a couple of rest days thrown in! Back to gym today for weights and cycle later.
02/19 107.0, BF 25.2% Yeah headed back down below 108 and below last recorded weight from last round - probably lots of water as cycle studio had no AC yesterday evening and sweated bullets it was so hot! Even the walls were sweating from the humidity from everyone’s perspiration! Calories were good - even had room for dark chocolate :-)
02/20 107.0, BF 25.2% Yes!!! No gain is a win!!! (ate back some exercise calories yesterday + sodium so nice to hold steady). Today is strength day (am) and then cardio in evening assuming that the forecast snow does not lead to the uni gym closing early ! the university is the last to close in the event of inclement weather as students are primarily on campus and as long as there is no freezing rain/sleet should be OK to drive/walk. Happy Scale thinks it will be 9 weeks for the next 2 pounds. OK with that if that is accompanied by loss of body fat! NSV: Have lost another half inch in waist and an inch in chest (below breasts). No change in hips, but lost more fat there earlier - Waist, belly below belly button, and thighs are all areas where I am still holding on to fat. While I can’t spot reduce fat, I can target muscle growth so working on core is one way to improve the appearance of abs/belly. Vertical anti-rotation shoulder press with the cable machine (and other cable exercises) have been great for strengthening abs/obliques and filling out muscle underneath the loose stomach skin as fat decreases (without doing a million crunches)!
02/21 106.4, BF 25.1% Woot! A new low! ‘Course this is Friday, so knowing my eating patterns (eat/drink some of the banked calories from the week) I will likely bounce up a bit, but hoping to hang out in the 106’s in the next coming weeks.
02/22 107.4, BF 25.4 Pizza! Nuf said for sodium bomb. Wait it out until Monday...
02/23 108.4, BF 25.6% and the weekend bump continues… busy day with twins 13th B’day party today so did not get my usual cycle class in this morning, and had a slice of pizza and a cupcake at the B’day party (def over on carbs for the day). I did manage to get to the gym for a strength workout before dinner.
02/24 109.2, BF 25.9% Pizza and cupcake carb loading after effects I suppose - did feel great in spin class this morning and ran/walked 1.5 miles so hoping the carbs had some benefit!!! Kids wanted to do a meatless monday dinner, so need to be careful that it is not too carb heavy to get back on track! Couple more days to get back to round starting weight! If it is water retention with excess carbs, it should come off pretty quickly! On the downside - happy scale now thinks it will be over a year to get to goal of 105; on the bright side an older guy at the gym asked whether I was a boxer! Will take the NSV over the scale!
02/25 108.6, BF 25.7% On the way back down. Exercise and calories are good, so just have to be patient! And at this point NSVs (increasing strength, clothing fit, mirror) are more important than the scale! Did reach a new PR on deadlifts of 130 today!

Day | Weight | Change | Comment
02/17 | DNW | Weekend away played havoc with my routine.
02/18 | 134.8kg | +0.5kg | So disappointed in myself. I think I am self-sabotaging and I don't want to do that again. I am tracking my calories now - not making the best food choices but tracking nonetheless. I am making a conscious effort to get intentional exercise. I know this is most likely just a blip but I will admit my heart sank a little seeing that number on the scale this morning. I must not let this get me down. I must have perseverance.
02/19 | 135.3kg | +0.5kg | I think I'm broken! Didn't think I'd had that much sodium (and definitely not that many calories!) but here I am up 1kg in two days. Must be seriously retaining water, but why - I don't know! I ate around maintenance level yesterday, but sodium was pretty much bang on target, so I don't think that's the culprit this time. Who knows?!
02/20 | 135.0kg | -0.3kg | Ok I'm glad to see this starting to move in the right direction. Didn't have a great day with nutrition, but did get some HIIT in so torched a few calories there. My stationary bike arrived yesterday so I set that up last night (with a little help from hubby because OMG that thing is H-E-A-V-Y!). Looking forward to being able to get a good, low impact calorie burn right at home - and hubby has been very supportive, even setting me up with a shelf for a TV and AppleTV so I can watch something while working out. He even cleaned the mouse-infected office-turned-gym for me - he's a keeper, for sure! Unfortunately he saw his doctor yesterday to get some blood test results and confirmed that he has Type 2 diabetes (which we had suspected for a while but trying to convince him to see someone about it has been an ongoing battle!). He will start medication today and no doubt resist any diet changes I try to make! Which is ok for now, we are hoping that the medication will help him to have more energy and no longer fall asleep after meals - we can work on rebuilding his health later on!
02/21 | 134.5kg | -0.5kg | Yes! Obviously I knew the excess weight was water weight that would eventually drop off, but it's still discouraging to see the higher numbers on the scale. I have been a little more strict with myself (though not enough) the last couple of days and focused on getting some good workouts in (albeit short ones as I don't have the time in my day for long workouts!). My new bike is great, I jumped on for 10 mins last night while hubby ducked out to pick up dinner. Feeling a little more positive today and ready to keep working at it!
02/22 | 133.6kg | -0.9kg | So either I am broken or my scale is broken! I had a terrible day for nutrition but drank bucketloads of water as I was called in for a hydration test at work. I always drink a litre of water before work in case I am flagged for a test, so I knew I’d pass, but you only have an hour to produce a sample for them to test so I had to guzzle a lot more water to get there! That’s the only thing I can think would make a difference as I did no exercise yesterday.
Today I had parkrun so enjoyed a 5km walk. Enjoyed is a facetious term in this instance - I got a huge blister before the halfway point and ended up walking on the back of my shoe for the last third of it. I would have turned around about 1.5km in, but I was the tail walker so I had to walk the whole course! Drinking lots of water today so hopefully this weight level will stick around!
02/23 | 133.6kg | No change | Continued to drink a lot of water after Parkrun, and otherwise just had a relaxed day. Did have some chocolate but didn’t overdo it.
02/24 | 134.1kg | +0.5kg | What goes up, must come down. I wish I knew what triggered my rapid water weight gains and losses! I will keep smashing the water and otherwise keep on keeping on!
02/25 | 134.3kg | +0.2kg | Splurged last night and had nachos, but only ended up 300 calories over goal for the day so I was still below maintenance level. I think I need to work on my portion sizes. Did a bunch of HIIT so that was a good calorie burn for the day. Today will be a challenge as there is a morning tea at work for someone's birthday so there will be a lot of temptation. I will try to limit myself to only tasting the things that I really want to try!
02/26 | 134.6kg | +0.3kg | I forgot about my plan to limit myself at morning tea the moment I set foot in the room! I did eat too much, but also skipped lunch afterwards as I just wasn't hungry for most of the day. Overall calories were below maintenance level so I'm happy enough with that. Ate dinner from a smaller bowl to limit my portion size and that worked well - I was full after the smaller bowl but I know I would have eaten a larger bowl if I'd served it that way!
ROUND 105 SUMMARY
SW 134.3kg
EW 134.6kg
Delta +0.3kg
Not an ideal result, but given the huge daily fluctuations I've been getting, I'm reasonably ok with it. Focus next round will be on keeping moving and reducing my portion sizes as that's a huge issue for me.
See you all in Round 106!!7 -
56 year old, female, 6' ft
Highest Weight: 400
MFP Start Weight: 285.8 (Jan 7th, 2020)
Round Start Weight: 274.6
Round Goal Weight: 272
My goal for 2020 is to reach One-derland by end of the year. Also, build my strength and endurance while toning my muscles as I'm losing weight.
Day/Weight/Comment:
2/17: 274.6. Hit a plateau for nearly two weeks. Not much loss just grateful it's moving downwards again.
2/18: 272.4 (-2.2) After not losing for awhile it feels really good to be losing again.
2/19: 272.4 (0)
2/20: 272.4 (0)
2/21: 272.4 (0). Scale not moving again. But I'm good with this. My goal for this round was 272 only 4 oz over. Still have 5 days to lose the 4 oz. Lost so far this round
(2.2 lbs). Will adjust calorie amount and increase water intake to see if this will help with getting the weight to start going down again.
2/22: 272.4 (0)
2/23: 272.4 (0)
2/24: 272.4 (0) Still no loss. I'm happy there's no weight gain. I lowered my daily calorie intake and stayed below it. Increase water intake to almost 3 L's yesterday. Making these changes, I was hoping the scale would start showing a loss, but sadly no. I just made these changes yesterday, so there are 2 days left in this round to show a loss. If not I still lost (2.2 lbs) this round which is good.
2/25: 272.4 (-0) 😩
2/26:
Would be nice to finally get out of the 70's by end of this round. I'm ok if that doesn't happen. Maybe in the next round.6 -

You can do this! Just stay the course. The numbers on the scale will move!3 -
General goal is to maintain below 150, and trend slowly downward to 145.
Looking forward:
- February: I need to focus on getting back to where I was pre-Christmas
- 2020: Goal is to stabilise weight around 145
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals
Back Story:2018:2020
My goal was to get down below 160, to allow me to enjoy the indulgences of holidays and celebrations.
2019
I exceeded that and have been below 150 for most of the last 2 months.
In 2018, I put on 10 lbs over the last 2 months of the year.
In 2019, I consistently lost weight since the end of July. I put on about 4lbs over the Christmas break, but was still below my original 2019 goal.
That's a WIN in my book!
I need this more than ever now that I am in maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

RSW 139.5
02/17 - 142
02/18 - 143 Yesterday I just ate...all the chocolate. I'm back to being good today. I was just irritated at that 142 and belatedly realized it might have been DOMS as much as anything. Hoping to see some better results this round. But I did not start well!
02/19 - 141 Back to reasonable eating yesterday. Adding in some strength training with cardio.
02/20 - 141 Fancy dinner out last night...so not too bad.
02/21 - 140.5 Mostly ate ok yesterday. Did a strength video, but it was raining all day, so no walk.
02/22 - 140 -- I've been doing strength training videos and walking this week. I don't know if it is that, or the radiation...but boy am I tired!
02/23 - 142 -- Restaurant tasting event last night. I exercised a ton before going, but probably ate back all those calories and a few more. Didn't try to parse it all out! This should hopefully just be a temporary blip up.
02/24 - 141 -- It's always slower going down than going up.
02/25 - 142.5 -- Snacky yesterday, but still under. I'm not sure why I can't make this work!

02/17 - 218.2lbs - mediocre day; didn’t feel well because getting over a bad cold
02/18- 217.6 - mediocre day again; not getting the most fulfilling food because I haven’t cooked a lot but hitting calorie goal because I am sick and not hungry! Starting to feel better 🤞
02/19 - 217.6 - still no exercise but took a to-go box home from a work lunch and didn’t hugely over eat! Great win for today! I haven’t been sleeping well so that’s the goal for the rest of this week
02/20 - 217.8- first day back in the gym in 2 weeks and it was rough. I did not eat well at all, so happy to stay about the same. I’ll be out of town this weekend, so need to focus on maintenance
02/21 - 218 - super anxious and exhausted all day. Out of town so this is not my scale...hoping it’s the same at home 🤞

02/24 - 221 HUGE FAIL. Bad weekend, no self control while traveling; so disappointing!
02/25 - 200 mediocre day but bad meal planning. I need to not lose so much ground when I got out of town

Day/Weight/Comment
02/17 – 169.2 – A little drop and all goals met – good start. Took advantage of the milder weather and Monday holiday to get out and walk on the beach with my grandsons. It was a little too chilly to put our feet in, but we all enjoyed exploring the tidepools and climbing on the rocks. We had lunch out, but I stayed under my calorie limit with lighter meals the rest of the day.
02/18 – 169.2 – Up too late catching up on work, but I still managed to rally and get to the gym after class.
02/19 – 168.6. – Met my first 3 goals but didn’t get much work done.
02/20 – 168.2 – Goals met.
02/21 – 168.4 – Rest day. Time to seriously attack those chores! I got a good bit done and managed stay under my calorie limit even with wine and chocolate after dinner.
02/22 – 168.4
02/23 – 169.0 – No surprise. Lunch out and late dinner at my mom’s (with wine and dessert) put me way over both calorie and sodium limits yesterday. Mardi Gras brunch (with mimosas) did me in today. I did get to walk for an hour at the beach, but still came in over calories. I’ll be back on track tomorrow.
02/24 – 169.8 – Weekend bounce. But I got to the gym, drank plenty of water, and kept to my calorie limit today. Hope to be on the way back down tomorrow.
02/25 – 170.2 – More weekend consequences, I suppose. I’m a bit disappointed since there's only one more weigh-in to go, but I’m not going to get down on myself. I’ve done well most of this round and I got right back on track with calories and exercise on Monday. Still, with the smaller deficit I have now that I’ve reset my goals, I have less wiggle room for weekend indulgences – something to keep in mind as I go forward.

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.
I have March 10th as my hip surgery date...much better than April!
