3/3 156.9 O miles I took a couple of weeks off posting to this challenge. I weighed most days but just bounced around 160 to 162. It was just 10 weeks of basically the same weight no matter my calories or workout schedule. I felt like a loser so I skipped out on you guys. I still tracked but didn't do the challenge. I still walked whenever possible and tried to stay within my goal. I'm not sure why but I seem to have broken through that barrier. I even had Vietnamese yesterday and didn't retain any water. WOOHOO! Hi everyone, I hope all is well. I'm going to get caught up on your stories.

3/4 158.2 0 miles I think yesterday was an anomaly. I've been sick for almost two weeks but I have to go to StLouis today and do a presentation tomorrow. I'm not 100% but I haven't had a fever in several days. I'm sad that I can't walk today since the weather is perfect. I'm falling a little behind on the walking schedule though I have a lot of time to make it up.

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.

02/28 121.0 Yesterday gym with Amy and out in the evening for live music. 163% of my step goal!
02/29 119.5 First time I’ve seen this number since pre-cruise weigh in in early December. Tomorrow Champagne brunch with dear friends.
03/01 120.5 Expected increase, I ate a tortilla and had a margarita at OMAD yesterday - steak fajitas, no beans or rice, subbed calabacitas and picked out 3 million pieces of corn. I hardly ate anything but this is what even “low” carbs do to me. I was definitely over my 20g carb limit. Probably will be today also but I won’t eat anything after brunch.
03/02 120.5. Life is good. Gym with Amy this afternoon.
03/03 120.5
03/04 120.0 Going to the movies to see The Invisible Man. Just got a message that our granddaughter #2 was accepted into the Masters design program at Iowa State! So exciting!

Round 104- SW 157, EW 159 +2
Round 105- SW 159, EW 158 -1

02/27- 157.2 sigh. I'm only just back to where I finished at 2 rounds ago. I got a new digital scale so I'll see if it fluctuates like my old one. I'm not going to super obsess about it, because I don't have that much left to reach goal.
02/28- 156.4 Happy about this. Did 30 min of HIIT in the AM and walked 2 miles. Will try to be good on the weekend, but have drinks tonight.
02/29- 156.7- Rode Frosty since the ground was frozen.
03/01- 157.4- Ran 3.5 miles with Frosty since the gound was too wet to ride and walked another 2
03/02- 157.0- well that's not awful for a weekend. I'm always super active, but then I don't really track and eat a bunch of crap. It doesn't help I was ghosted yet again and I'm an emotional eater.
03/03- 158.0 WTH.. I guess that's the weekend. I stayed under calories yesterday, but ate a ton of cabbage soup. Maybe water weight, who knows. Just staying the course. Ran 2.5 miles yesterday with Frosty.
03/04- 156.4 better. I'm guessing that was water weight and salt from the cabbage soup. Tracking calories. It was donut breakfast at school for the youngest today, but I didn't eat the whole thing and I'll try to eat well the rest of the day. Ran 3 miles yesterday.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 365.8 - Small uptick. Found that if I use ACV before a high(er) carb meal will balance blood sugar levels and it seems to help w/ my weight. I've been doing a lot of research, especially those doctors and dieticians (not YouTube influencers) that have done real research.
02/28 - 365.8 - I think stress is really hurting my rest. Job hunting isn't going as well as I need and it's definitely taking it's toll.
02/29 - 364.5 - First time in days I got decent sleep... and the drop proves it. Also started weight-work w/ kettlebell and free weights.
03/01 - 364.3 - Ate a donut yesterday (lol). The first real cheat in weeks. Tasted way too sweet. But kept myself under on my calorie limit, so that's good. I'll take the minor drop.
03/02 - 364.0 - The downward trend continues. Only 3.6 lbs. short of making my DietBet challenge. Must be at 360.4 on March 17th.
03/03 - 362.0 - Wasn't too hungry yesterday. Actually got a huge chef salad (oil/vinegar dressing) and still had plenty of room for frozen yogurt and a protein bar before starting my fast again. Four days to go and already made my goal weight. Also went to the gym again. 45 minutes, 3.08 miles on the eliptical. And now 40, yes, FORTY lbs. down on my journey.
03/04 - 362.0 - No change is fine. I'm still where I wanted to be for this round, so anything more is just the proverbial cherry on top. I an nearing a weight I have not been under for 10 years, so I AM getting excited.

02/27 - 188.2 not feeling very well today, my supervisor yelled at me for no reason today for 45 minutes and it made me feel so bad about myself I got sick and threw up in our bathroom. I asked why he's cancelled all of our meetings for the past 6 months, because I was worried something was up, and he just like, transformed into a different person and yelled at me for implying he wasn't invested or interested in his "subordinates." He sent me a bunch of angry emails afterwards and I am freaking out trying to figure out how to move forward. I can't believe my one sentence question that I thought was pretty reasonable/innocent created such a hurricane of anger
02/28 - 187.6 still haven't responded to any emails, kind of worried my working relationship with this person is destroyed even though I really don't think I did anything wrong. At least my weight is down, which is nice, but it might just be from being so sick. Got sick again later today and threw up again. Broke keto so I could eat some crackers to try to settle my stomach
02/29 - 188 still very nauseated, still haven't responded to the emails. Trying to figure it out. Trying to focus on having a nice weekend but it's hard because I'm kind of terrified of work next week. Didn't exercise again today, feel too ill, but trying to stick to my diet as best as I can. I really want to break through this 188 barrier, I've been coasting here for months
03/01 - 190.5.. Not sure why my weight shot up overnight. Maybe it's an overreaction to keeping all my food down again. Finally started feeling better and got lots of exercise today building a fence, digging, laying cinderblocks, etc. Nervous to work again tomorrow
03/02 - 190.. slightly down, which is good, but I wish it were more down, I really don't want to end this challenge with a gain, especially a mystery gain. Was very good about my diet, did some exercise, and my boss apologized to me. I still feel bad about it and dont really trust our professional relationship, but it was nice that he did some reflection and gave me a heartfelt apology (via email... hahah). Hoping to be back down again tomorrow
03/03 - 187.9! Wow, super down. OK, at least the diet is working again

Got a lot of exercise in today and did a good job of sticking to my diet. Got lots of work done too but got a huge migraine around 6PM that basically robbed my entire night. Missed dinner and spending time with my partner. These migraines have been more and more frequent, it's very frustrating.
03/04 - 188.4.. back up! This has been a bit of a roller coaster challenge for me hahah. Feeling nauseated again today, but my head feels good so so far so good. Doing well on my diet and at work today and I went to the gym for the first time this week. So I'm going to call today a win even though it's still early

Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 164.4, GW – 163 something, UGW – 140.
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, see if I can complete my tracking every day and get to the gym 3x a week and not eat back the cals. Getting some exercise the non-gym days would be a great bonus.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 164.8
02/28 – 164.6
02/29 – 165 – Totally deserve this after a chocolate fest last night. Last couple of days have been great for getting things done but probably eating at maintenance so not sure how quickly I’ll get it down.
03/01 - 165
03/02 – 164.8- Completed tracking and stuck to IF.
03/03 – 164.8 – Decided to allow myself an apple after a very long practice last night but didn’t eat anything else. Completed tracking and right on target.
03/04 – 164.8 – IF – yes. Tracking – mostly, expect it was very close.

Day/Weight/Comment

Thursday, 02/27: 275.1 lbs (-0.3) … starting a round without a sizable uptick for once is a nice feeling. | Running: 10mins x 2 | Lifting |

Friday, 02/28: 274.9 lbs (-0.2) … I was fully expecting an uptick this morning. I was about 500 calories over budget and I ate quite a bit more food volume-wise than usual… but my trip to the gym yesterday seems to have countered that. That’s a good feeling. I’m going to try to recommit to going to the gym and running now. I’ve been slacking off for a while.

Saturday, 02/29: 276.2 lbs (+1.3) … Ran for 20 minutes on the treadmill today without much trouble. I decided that I’m going to go through the C25k program again, starting from W5D3, which is the first time you run for 20 minutes straight. Felt appropriate and having that structure should help me stick with my training. | Running: C25k W5D3 | Lifting: SS Workout A |

Sunday, 03/01: 276.1 lbs (-0.1) … Dating/relationship anniversary with my wife. We’ll have been together 18 years.

Monday, 03/02: 277.5 lbs (+1.4) … up again. I’ve been below budget, but made some salty/carby choices over the weekend. I’ve also recently started working out more so I’m guessing I have some water retention from that as well. Nothing I’m concerned about. Signed up for a 5k race on 4/25 and a 3.5 mile race in May. Also signed up for a step challenge at work that starts in a couple weeks, which should get me moving even more. | Running: C25k W6D1 | Lifting: SS Workout B |

Tuesday, 03/03: 275.0 lbs (-2.5) … nice whoosh this morning. My workout last night took a while and I was pretty beat afterward. Looking to be a beautiful day today outside… I’m going to enjoy my lunchtime walk this afternoon. In fact, the weather going forward seems to finally be getting warmer. I’m super excited about being able to run outside again… maybe tomorrow?

Wednesday, 03/04: 274.0 lbs (-1.0) … down a bit more today giving me a new low on the scale. Got a run in at lunchtime, outside for the first time this year. Felt great. Heading to the gym this evening. | Running: C25k W6D3 | Lifting: SS Workout A |

Round 106 - Feb.27 to March 7
Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 164.4, GW – 163 something, UGW – 140.
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, see if I can complete my tracking every day and get to the gym 3x a week and not eat back the cals. Getting some exercise the non-gym days would be a great bonus.
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 - 164.8
02/28 – 164.6
02/29 – 165 – Totally deserve this after a chocolate fest last night. Last couple of days have been great for getting things done but probably eating at maintenance so not sure how quickly I’ll get it down.
03/01 - 165
03/02 – 164.8- Completed tracking and stuck to IF.
03/03 – 164.8 – Decided to allow myself an apple after a very long practice last night but didn’t eat anything else. Completed tracking and right on target.
03/04 – 164.8 – IF – yes. Tracking – mostly, expect it was very close.

TwistedSassette · March 2020

@CaliMomTeach 1200 calories is the lowest amount recommended as it’s the minimum amount needed just to survive. If you’re eating below that amount it could actually be working against you in your weight loss efforts as your body goes into “starvation mode”. Have you considered bumping up your intake by even 100-200 calories a day?

TwistedSassette · March 2020

I am feeling good about this round. I know what I need to do, now I just need to make it happen!

FOCUS FOR THIS ROUND
Portion control & moving more!

GOALS THIS ROUND
- RGW 133.9kg
- Track calories 7/10 days | 3/5 so far
- Minimum of 15 mins activity per day | 2/5 so far
- Serve smaller than 'normal' dinners | Doing ok
R106 SW 134.6kg

Day | Weight | Change | Comment

02/27 | 134.0kg | -0.9kg | Still getting fed up with the daily fluctuations so I decided to try using the Happy Scale app to smooth those fluctuations. My actual weight today was 133.7kg but Happy Scale tells me that my moving average weight is 134.0kg so that feels like a more correct amount to me. I'll be putting the Happy Scale moving average weight as my measurement each day and see how that goes. I drank a lot of water yesterday, starting to think that's a key for me. I did eat some unhealthy foods but surprisingly it fit within my calorie limit - probably due to the smaller dinner size I had! Did 15 mins of walking, wanted to get on the stationary bike but my sister called so I was on the phone to her for a while and then it was too late to get started. Will aim for more movement again today and definitely keep up the water!

02/28 | 133.6kg | -0.4kg | Actual scale read 132.9kg - haven’t seen that number in a long time so glad to see the moving average coming down. Did 10 mins of walking and 20 mins on the bike so feeling good about that. Today we have the memorial for a friend who passed away in a tragic farm accident so I don’t expect to do any exercise or control my calories today. I know I should, but I think there are more important things today.

02/29 | DNW | Early start for a day trip with over 7 hours of driving plus shopping etc. so I forgot to jump on the scale when I got up at 4:30am!

03/01 | 133.5kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.7kg. Long, long day in the car yesterday but I didn’t eat a lot. Drank a couple of sugary drinks (frozen coke was amazing!) but drank a LOT of water so hopefully not too much water retention. My feet/ankles were very puffy when we got home last night so I was expecting a much higher read today. Glad I drank so much water, will keep that up today.

03/02 | 133.6kg | +0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.9kg. Trending upward, which I'm not surprised about. Like fmfdfa2020 I will focus on hitting my goals for the next 5 days - thanks for the inspiration!

03/03 | 133.7kg | +0.1kg | Actual scale read 134.2kg. Hectic day at work so I didn't even get a chance to post, letalone read through all the posts I've missed! I'll try to catch up over the next few days.
Calories: Didn't finish tracking, but would have been over target around maintenance level | Exercise: 15/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 6/5 serves

03/04 | 133.6kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.4kg. Another hectic day at work - barely left my desk all day and stayed back for an hour just to try to get on top of everything. Should be better after today, month-end should be completed (on time) and I should be back to normal! Getting some of these goals hit which is good, just need to find time to track everything!
Calories: DNT | Exercise: 5/15mins | Water: 3/2.5L | Fruit & Veg: 5/5 serves

03/05 | 133.5kg | -0.1kg | Actual scale read 133.2. Just had an average day yesterday. Wasn’t especially hungry most of the day and ate a smaller portion than I normally would for dinner so that was a win. No exercise though.

TerriRichardson112 · March 2020

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

Never give up! Never give in!
Back Story:

2018:
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!

2020
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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

02/29 - I've had the worse week I've had since beginning MFP 12/27. Everything has felt off and I feel like I'm starting to go down a slippery slope. I'm going to try what worked a couple of rounds ago and try to hit every goal for just 5 days - so here goes:

✔️03/01 - Calories: 1125 / IF: 16.25 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 72oz / Veg/Frt: 4/2
✔️03/02 - Calories: 1334 / IF: 17.75 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 64oz / Veg/Frt: 4/2
✔️03/03 - Calories: 1181 / IF: 20.75 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 72oz / Veg/Frt: 4/1
✔️03/04 - Calories: 1486 / IF: 18.00 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min & free weights / H20: 72oz / Veg/Frt: 4/1

It IS getting tiring being this rigid with tracking every goal, every day, but I was slipping badly for a couple weeks. I feel stronger in every way now so one more day to make it the five I committed to, then I'll keep going just not post every goal, every day.

It's time to weigh again Fri or Sat. I hope I'm at least back to where I started this round, HOWEVER, either way, this was more about my feeling out of control and catching it before I went back to my old ways!

Hi. My name is Trina.

03/04 140 -- Sorry. I have been weighing, but super busy with no time to check in. My sister is in town visiting and I have radiation every day. The real busy however, is rather crazy. A friend of mine invited me to a Cancer Event several weeks ago titled "Raising our Voices / Stories of Cancer told through Movement" as she had an extra free ticket. As it turned out, the event was an info session, and having taken advantage of the free tickets, we are now the performers! The performance will take place on March 14th and is a joint project of the Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater Company and the University of Alabama Institute for Arts In Medicine. We started rehearsal on Saturday and will rehearse every day for 2.5 hours for the next two weeks, during which time the directors will create a show which we will learn. It has been a blast! The group is a mix of cancer patients/survivors, cancer caregivers, and music/dance/theater students and professional dancers impacted by cancer. I feel like I won the golden ticket to play with the professional dance company and at the same time, like a pre-schooler in a dance class who thinks she looks like a beautiful ballerina on stage. We will be both singing and dancing on stage, and my bald head has won me a spot in the bald-headed trio--so two guys and I will have the stage to ourselves for the finale to one of the dances! It's definitely giving me a lot of movement in my day.
