2/27 160.6lbs, 34.6%bf; 8h10m/89 - much better sleep! Had a good workout and a very busy day. Plus, one of my fosters found her forever family and that's always a good feeling.
2/28 159.4lbs, 34.2%bf; 5h12m/61 - worst sleep in a long time. Will make today tough... but it's Friday!
2/29 158.0lbs, 33.9%bf; 7h43m/85 - well this is exciting! I know I'll bounce back above 160 - probably a couple of times - but for the moment, I am 50 pounds down from OSW. And under 34% body fat. 💪😎
3/1 157.9lbs, 33.9%bf; 6h48m/81 -quality sleep, just not enough of it. Fun day out with friends.
3/2 159.2lbs, 34.2%bf; 8h14m/93 - the bounce isn't unexpected, just happy to keep it under 160. The sleep... finally, a decent night. Come at me, Monday.... I am ready.
3/3 158.8lbs, 34.1%bf; 6h39m/83 - good workout, ok day, good food day, decent sleep (coulda used another hour).... all good. Busy days coming up with lots of eating out.
3/4 159.6lbs, 34.3%bf; 5h2m/62 - late night + late dinner = really poor sleep... totally worth the drag today. Got to spend the evening with a good friend watching my favorite sport. 🏒🦅159.4lbs, 34.3%bf; 6h19m/77 - quiet day... needed it.

02/27 - 151.4 Good start, stayed within limits.
02/28 - 151.6 Ate a little over my calorie allotment yesterday. A little sore from weight lifting.
02/29 - 151.8 Wrong way scale! Not too worried, I tend to bounce around a little. Stayed within calories, but probably need more water.
03/01 - 151.6 Wish it would drop a little faster, but at least it's moving in the right direction again.
03/02: - 151.6 Hope to see a drop soon. Sticking to calories, but just looked over my food diary for the past few days and I noticed I've been eating more carbs than usual. I'm going to cut back on the carbs and see if that helps.
03/03: - 150.6 There's the drop I've been waiting for.
03/04: - 150.0 Been watching those carbs.
03/05: - 149.6
03/06: - 150.0 Took the grandkids out for ice cream cones yesterday, couldn't resist..lol! I did stay within calories but my carb count was pretty high for the day.

03/06 - 144.6 - I swore I'd be up! Very happy about staying status quo after dinner last night. Off today to do physical therapy and run some errands. Picking up BF's youngest for the day (he's off school while is siblings have school and his mom and stepdad work) He's grounded from electronics and he wanted to help me and his mom was okay with me getting him away from tempting electronics and giving him some hard labor (helping me pack). Lots of activity I foresee. Early night and early wakeup tomorrow. I may weigh out of habit but don't know if I'll have a chance to post. No scale at BF's so I'll hop on at the end of next round and have probably 2 days weigh-in there. That will be my damage report/spring break recovery hahaha my next two rounds will be hectic as 107 is spring break and 108 includes moving. Scale must be packed at some point! But I'll still hop in to post updates when I can and see how everyone is doing! I'd miss y'all too much otherwise.
03/07 - DNW, DNP - Out of town 7Mar-15Mar for spring break! May or may not weigh/post before leaving
Previous Day's Comments02/27 - It's quite okay, though not pretty to see. A very late carb-heavy dinner and still waiting on TOM (been feeling it terrible yesterday and today -- it better hurry up and get along now). Gives me room to drop during this last 9 days before I leave. I'd love to see 145.x again but this will also be a bit of a stressful 10 days planning and packing. Update: the ankle fracture is actually an old one-- they were able to see what they think are calcium deposits which wouldn't have shown up in less than 24 hours from injury and there's no indication its unstable whatsoever. Called it a very bad sprain. Some tears in the ligaments are likely. I'm in a stabilization brace but off crutches and out of the boot. They're also referring me to physical therapy to help keep ligaments healing properly. Doc has no problem with my walking on it so long as its stabilized which I'm very happy about. I can take short walks and get more movement in now to help this weight gain along out the door for good. Plan on having 95% of my house packed prior to spring break so plenty of movement from that! I'll have 5 days to then pack the remaining 5% once I return. Feeling very positive about this round and ready for spring break! Haven't seen the kids since BF moved first week of Dec and I've missed them so much.
02/28 - Trending down, yay! TOM finally showed up and took some bloat with it. Another late dinner as I ate with my neighbor and his daughters -- carb heavy italian with some wine. Tonight will be steaks on the grill but not sure what sides yet so hoping tomorrow is a much nicer number. Hit my 65oz water goal Today's goal is to finish 2.5 30oz bottles and work my way up to 3 (90oz) over time. Hoping lighter carb/protein-focused dinners combined with more water will get me back to 145.x for spring break. I'm DETERMINED. I want to feel confident in myself and it'll set me up nicely for summer as well. Plenty of beaches, rivers, kayaking, floating, etc in my future. I want to be able to enjoy those experiences rather than constantly think about how I look and feel ugly for it (I know I'm not, but my slight dysmorphia tells me otherwise more often than I like to admit.) I'm sure I don't do myself any favors by not sucking it up and eliminating or at least reducing the things I know bloat me up. Limit gluten-filled carbs will be a focus going forward. Lactose is much easier for me to avoid.
02/29 - On my way back down! Fasting until dinner because I had a few drinks while playing darts last night. 3 drinks at 80 calories a piece didn't do me in calorie-wise, but I know with IF, alcohol gets burned first, then glycogen, then fat. It was about 1am so it'd be about 5pm before I hit my 16 hours. I'm fine with it, don't feel hungry anyway, despite my stomach grumbling at me lol Shush and enjoy the water and tea, belly! Going to do some yoga for ankle injuries today. Feeling a bit squishy. BF wants me to gain confidence to wear a bikini I bought years ago and forgot I had. It definitely doesn't fit, so I went shopping and trying on today.... squish squish squish. Found a top I absolutely adored (and bought for motivation)! Bottoms however... I'm a pear shape so that's where my squish is. Didn't like my belly hanging over that much and the skin/fat around my hips absorbing the side of the bottoms... I'll be okay by summer if I keep up with what I've been doing the last month, but hopefully I can lose the squishy feeling I've gained in the last few days by next week. If not, they have swim bottoms that are like shorts and I can get those until I'm more comfortable. (BF is not being controlling, he just hates that I don't have confidence or find myself beautiful/attractive. I'll wear it around friends who are also like me but more comfortable with wearing a bikini, no matter their body shape. I know they'll hype me up and get me more comfortable with myself)
03/01 - Didn't expect to meet my goal so soon. Apparently the fasting worked wonders! Only had 60oz of water, rather than 90, but I had a very late start -- only began drinking water at 1130! Coffee pot is packed so I am surviving on tea for my caffeine fix (to avoid migraines) and water. It definitely forces me to get more in. Now to keep it up and maybe I'll be fortunate enough to get to 144.x? I suppose it is possible now that I've had this drop, but I won't get my hopes up. Dinner will be fajitas with the flat iron steak I have. Need to use it up and neighbor is happy grilling it for us. Not sure about lunch but have some leftover stir fry veggies I will try to get in with whatever else I find to eat. My pantry and freezer are dwindling quite nicely, though it makes healthy eating a little more challenging. A good lesson in portion control I suppose.
03/02 - Not a big deal, expected bounce from sodium. Could not resist the temptation of chips and guacamole with our fajitas last night. Got my 90oz of water but the salt came at dinner so no time to flush. Woke up feeling that water-weight squish. It'll go down quickly, I think, if I stick to my goals. Lots of water today, naked fajitas for lunch, and not quite sure dinner yet, but focused on making it light.
03/03 - Water weight gone from sodium binge. I will say, I wasn't quite expecting it to be gone that quick. Now to keep it here or drop more. No more going up! I got my 90oz water in yesterday. Not much by way of food in the house anymore. If my burger patties are thawed by tonight, I'll cook one up (no bun) with a side of veggies for dinner. There are 4 of them so it should be enough for tonight, tomorrow night (food truck at work as my splurge for lunch), and Thursday lunch and dinner. Hopefully I have enough veggies on hand to make it through that! Today's lunch is a can of chicken and dumpling soup. Not ideal, plenty of sodium as all canned soups are, but its what I had available. Either that or overpriced vending machine food. At least the sodium will be early on and I have time to flush it out before tomorrow. Will have to figure out Friday's food when I get there.. I'm off work so I have options.
03/04 - Actually surprised by this. Today is my coworker's last day. She and I went to lunch one last time together yesterday so I had a much larger, heavier meal. I was 70 calories under my goal with just lunch. Luckily for me, it kept me full through dinner. I had a handful of frozen grapes for a sweet tooth and was satisfied. Today we have the food truck (tradition for another coworker and I). The burger patties I had planned for last night weren't thawed so thankfully I wasn't hungry. Hopefully by tonight they will be. I moved them lower in the fridge where it doesn't seem to be as cold. Physical therapy this morning - very nice to sleep in! I needed it. Trying to get a couple sessions in before I move. The lady was so nice and understanding. Hopefully I can be out of the brace soon!
03/05 - Well, lunch was heavy and I snacked a few times during the day so dinner was out. Luckily, I wasn't hungry so skipping dinner and doing an unplanned OMAD type day wasn't difficult. Kind of upset that my MFP app and the desktop version show different numbers in my food diary. They sync food, but not goals? I thought I was okay on calories according to my app, but when I looked in detail the goals I adjusted on the desktop site are different than the goals in the app and I was, in fact, over calories by approx 150. Oh well, I still got a loss out of it (likely due to the fasting since 5pm instead of my usual 7pm) and I'll take it. Had my first physical therapy appt for my ankle yesterday and one more tomorrow. The difference in strength between my ankles is very small so I've already progressed much further than my PT expected. Managed some yoga last night for detox and digestion. Tummy was rumbling (not hunger) after so I guess that practice got some things moving. It was tough and my balance isn't what it was a few weeks ago, but it felt good and apparently worked for digestion. Definitely broke a sweat which I missed.

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.
03/05- 154 I had leg cramps post ride and HIIT last night so I know I'm dehydrated and this is artificial. I won't freak out tomorrow when it's back up. Still, it's nice to see. Only 4 pounds to goal weight. Must drink more water.
03/06- 154.2 I went over calories yesterday by a little. I was just really hungry. I don't think I got enough protein or drank enough water. Protein is what keeps me full and it's hard to get enough without going over in calories. I'm sure I'll pay for the overage tomorrow... Short ride on Frosty yesterday

Round 106 (My 1st round)
Goals for 2/27-3/07
1) Go for a walk everyday after work
2) Eat soup for lunch M-F
3) Stay in calorie range of 1200

Current weight (2/28) 63.3kg
Goal weight: 58kg
Day/Weight/Comment
02/27 63.3, calories were 1,351
02/28 63.3, calories were 1,400
02/29 63.3, calories were 1,280 I don't know why I haven't lost this week, as I've been pretty consistent with the calorie counting. Hopefully I'll see a change tomorrow! I'm making a low cal Mexican soup as well for lunch every day, so that'll help too.
03/01 62.8, calories were 1230. I finally got under 63.3! Maybe my scale is not as sensitive as it should be. I'm happy to finally see some progress!
03/02 62.8 calories were 1499. I splurged a little with a taco salad for dinner.
03/03 62.8 calories were 1129.
03/04 63.3 calories were 1329. Started my period so I suspect that's why the number went up. Ate way too much chocolate today! I don't expect to see the scale go back down for the next few days, but I will try to be good and stay consistent calorie wise.
03/05 62.8 calories were 1434
03/06 62.8 calories were 1227 I ate a burger, fries, and coke for lunch... My only meal today. 😁 So yummy! Hard to believe how many calories are in those things, but I didn't feel hungry the rest of the day, so that's good!

02/27 159.2 lbs 1050 calories, 10,000 steps, fatigue, back pain, nausea, Physical therapy today
02/28 160.4 1751 calories, 8000 steps, physical therapy was a waste of time, I got a heat pack for ten minutes and went over exercises that I had already been doing before this last month of back pain. No massaging, nothing. But come back twice a week so I can take your money. Ummm... I made another appointment with the doctor today, which is 90 miles of driving again. If I don't get an MRI and something to get me through the weekend........ I gave into tears from pain and ate two rows of girl scout cookies.
02/29. 159.2lbs. MRI today.
03/01. 159.6 lbs. 2500 calories, 6000 steps spent four driving to mri but met my daughter and she took me out for supper and we splurged on desserts. So this number will continue to go up for another day. Restarting this month, hoping to find out what’s wrong with back, get some pain control and take back my life.
03/02 160.0 lbs 1085 calories, 7500 steps
03/03 160.2 1375 calories, 19500 steps. Back is better but loss is hard with no IF because of eating breakfast with pain pills in the morning. Hard to keep calories to 1000 for loss.
03/04 160.6 lbs 1136 calories, 18,500 steps. So my stomach the last couple days are not liking the pills plus I keep gaining no matter how much exercise. So going off the pills to fix my stomach. Ugh!
03/05 160. 0 lbs 1036 calories, 15,200 steps. IF 16 hours. So I ended up taking the pill at noon and continuing with them because my back started getting worse. Another side effect is water retention. Stomach is still not happy on this diet. No MRI results yet.
03/06 160.4 lbs 1872 calories, 19000 steps. IF 16 hours

Goals for 2020 — eat consciously and responsibly, exercise and meditate daily, get back to productive writing & painting, help people, be kind, learn new things, have fun.
🏃🏽♀️🥗🍎🥕🥦🏊🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️
R106 Goals — I’m trying something new this round. I’ve counted calories daily for years, through ups and downs, and have admitted to myself that it’s obsessive and not necessarily productive. This round I’m trying to simply eat when hungry and to mindfully choose mostly what I know is healthful. I’m going to weigh in only on the first and final days this round, but I will check in daily. Thanks for indulging me.

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 - 181.2
I can see that not recording what I eat will be a struggle, I’ve been doing it for so long (even while gaining back some of what I’d lost), but I’m starting to work my way through The Intuitive Eating Workbook to see if I can stop snacking and otherwise eating stupidly, and stop letting food and calories control me. So no more weighing until 3/7 and no tracking this round. I know that’s not the point of this challenge, but this group is so supportive and inspiring, I want to hang out with you. 🎟
2/28 - 179.6
Old habits — I weighed myself before I thought about it. Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
2/29 - —
I went out for lunch with a friend yesterday and still feel the sodium this morning — rings won’t come off. But that meal did me for the rest of the day, so not all bad I guess. I’m flushing myself out with lots of water and normal sodium today. Happy Leap Day, everyone!
3/1 - —
3/2 - —
I’m managing not to step on the scale, but it’s hard — such a habit! I had a good weekend in terms of food (no idea about calories, but I felt “lighter”), and took a nice walk yesterday. It’s warmed up, but now we expect a few days of rain. Oh well!
3/3 - —
I’m slowly adjusting to not recording everything and not obsessing. Feeling good. I confess though that I’m curious to see if I lose this experimental round!
3/4 - —
Just like the bunny, I’m still going?
3/5 - —
Oddly enough, while I’m not tracking my food, my snacking has decreased to, well, none other than air-popped popcorn in the evening. No idea whether I’ve lost any weight, but I feel less hungry. Hmmm.
3/6 - —
It’s turned cold again, but my crocus are blooming. Spring is coming!

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. Got a run in at lunchtime, outside for the first time this year. Felt great. Heading to the gym this evening. | Running: C25k W6D2 |
Thursday, 03/05: 275.9 lbs (+1.9) … The gym last night was frustrating, as it was super busy and the squat rack (which I needed for my workout) was in use the entire time I was there. Wound up going to the gym early this morning instead. It’s supposed to be 40ish by lunch time, so my lunch walk should be pleasant today. | Lifting: SS Workout A |
Friday, 03/06: | 273.7 lbs (-2.2) … Back down again with a new low weight. Got in a good run before work this morning. A bit chilly, but I have thermal running gear so it didn’t bother me at all. Down another jeans size, now fitting in 42’s. I’m very happy this morning. | Running: C25k W6D3 |

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27: 144.0 (+1.4) – Water, salt, digestive issues. Calories were not over but did drink and it was salty food. It’s going to be a challenging few days with social stuff last night, tonight, Fri and Sat. I am really going to have to bank calories during the day and exercise.
2/28: 143.8 (-.2) – Going to try to run today – gotta burn some cals heading into a busy social weekend. Happy FriYay all…..Looking forward to March and some spring like weather. In TX that could be 50 or 90 😎
2/29: 142.0 (-1.8) – This can’t be correct but I weighed 4 times with and without an 8 lb dumb bell and resetting the scale. Also, I purposely only had a 300 cal protein bar at lunch yesterday and saved my calories for dinner at 7 so I ate most of them back late! I will see them tomorrow or Monday as I am out tonight as well at Make-A-Wish Fundraiser with Barbecue/drinks. Back on track tomorrow. Happy Leap Year y’all!🤩
3/1: 142.0 (0) – Didn’t check the scale….just going with it. Plan to run today to work off last night’s tacos, queso, chips and Tito’s. Happy March Fools Day y’all!🤘
3/2: 143.0 (+1.0) - This is what they call a “Burger and Fries” hangover! But it was good! I ate way under my cals though because it was a 2 pm gut bomb. Dinner was zucchini noodles and spinach. Looking for a sports med doc today to give me some direction on hip pain. In the mean time, I will have to focus on the calories in part of the equation! ➕➖➗✖
3/3: 142.6 (-.4) – Gym day then sports med doc to solve the “my hip hurts when I run” issue. Ate well yesterday. This should be a quiet week. Hope everyone in the US with a Super Tuesday primary gets to vote! ☮
3/4: 142.0 (-.6) – I ate ok yesterday but had to eat in the car due to doctors appt. so I didn’t eat it all. Came home and had cheese and crackers unplanned. Then I got a call from college daughter and it really stressed me out. She is struggling with post college decisions and I feel helpless knowing that its truly her journey and tried to reassure her that whatever she does, its just a step…a first step. Still had to have some wine after….😏🍷 Today is cardio medley because I can’t run just yet.
3/5: 143.0 (+1.0) – no idea why I am up but whatever….life is a little stressful these days. Hoping to get a long walk in since the weather is going to be awesome today. I need a gym break.
3/6: 143.0 (same) – busy day yesterday. Ate well until the stress cookies but still under my calories. Went to a night yoga class to mix it up. It was a nice way to destress before bed and get away from the Coronavirus non-stop coverage, which leads to the ingestion of cookies .🍪🍪🍪

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
✔️03/05 - Calories: 1495 / IF: 16.00 hrs / Exercise: Row 30min / H20: 64oz / Veg/Frt: 4/1 DID IT! Now to keep it up and start losing again!
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!
03/06 - 174.5 - Reset! Now ready to start losing again!

Short-term goal - back into the 160's!
