    MFP start weight Oct 28.18 - 191
    May goal: The 148.8
    Ultimate goal: 112-115

    I weigh every day.

    Friday May 01 - 153.8 - How great it would be to get firmly entrenched into the 140s by June!
    Saturday May 02 - 153.6
    Sunday May 03 - 155.3 - Ribs. I will try not to have them for at least another month. They were delicious, but it will take awhile to get the weight back down. I knew this.
    Monday May 04 - 154.7 - Still working off those Ribs.
    Tuesday May 05 - 153.4 - Another case of going back to bed to lay there and listen to the radio, a pound down from when I first got up.
    Wednesday May 06 - 154.1 - I did go back to bed after getting up, but am from now on am going to use the higher number. (Otherwise I was 153.1 after going back to bed)
    Thursday May 07 - 153.1 - Slept in today. Rainy days make me tired I think.
    Friday May 08 - 156.1 - Dang it!

    Wednesday May 13 - 153.3
    Thursday May 14 - 154.1
    Friday May 15 - 154.4 - No reason for this gain, hoping to see it gone tomorrow.
    Saturday May 16 - 154.8 - I am not getting much sleep the last few days, thinking that is contributing to gaining weight.
    Sunday May 17 - 154.3
    Monday May 18 - 153.6
    Tuesday May 19 - 152.8
    Wednesday May 20 - 152.1 - Slept in, so got this good number.
    Thursday May 21 - 152.3 - I really wouldn't know what day it was unless copy pasting from yesterday and putting in today's date.
    Friday May 22 - 152.1 - I was 163 on this date last year, so have lost 10 pounds in a year. Many years to go at this rate to reach my goal, but sticking with it.

    Biscuits! I have never done this well with weight loss in a month.

    Mon to Thurs calorie avg is 1226.

    I'm not loving the weight gain due to my new scale but I will work to get back to the top of my maintenance goal.
    Now, I do love that my weight syncs with Fitbit which then syncs with MFP. Also, all of the stats are nice.
    Renpho Bluetooth Scale on Amazon

    FYI: My BF has been back and forth between 33% and 35% for 6 months. My goal is 30% and we will see what happens. I tend to carry my weight around my waist and hips.
    I have seen 32% once in March and May - on my way!


    MFP Starting Weight: 140 lbs - February 2011
    Current Starting Weight: 147.4 lbs - November 2017
    May Starting Weight: 118.2 lbs (February Starting Weight...thanks new scale :/ )
    May Goal: 115.2 lbs
    Height: 5ft
    Age: 31

    Ultimate Goal: 110 lbs
    Maintenance Goal: 110 to 115 lbs

    Weigh-In Days: Monday and Friday

    May 1: 118.2
    May 4: 117.8 @ 7am ... 29k weekend steps, 1 workout, and 14 cups of water to work off Friday's pizza gain (119.8) ... 32% BF
    May 8: 117 @ 7am ... yesterday's stats: 12k steps, 1300 cals, 8 cups of water and 2 workouts
    May 11: 116 @ 7am ... yesterday's stats: 11k steps, 1270 cals and 5 cups of water ... 31% BF :D
    May 15: 115.6 @ 6:40am ... yesterday: 12k steps, 1150 cals, 8 cups of water and 1 workout ... pizza is on the menu tonight so I'm expecting a gain tomorrow.
    May 18: 115.2 @ 7:30am ... yesterday: 11k steps, 1160 cals, 5 cups of water and 1 workout ... 31% BF :D
    May 22: 114 @ 7am ... yesterday: 13k steps, 1180 cals and 8 cups of water... sweet and sour chicken and french fries for dinner tonight... expecting a gain tomorrow... going to work it off this weekend...

    I weigh every day. I have a rolling ten-day average, and I use other tools to see my trend. I post scale and ten-day average once a week.

    Heaviest weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
    Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
    April 30 starting weight - 150.4 (ten-day rolling average weight 149.1)
    May goal - 145
    Ultimate goal - Range between 142 - 148

    I report scale weight and (ten day average weight).

    April 30: 150.4 (10-day average 149.1)
    May 1: 150.8 (10-day average 149.3)
    May 2: 149.4 (10-day average 149.5)
    May 9: 149.4 (10-day average 149.6)
    May 16: 146.8 (10-day average 149.2)
    May 23: 147.2 (10-day average 148.9)

    Last week's low scale weight number DID turn out to be a fluke. I think it was dehydration. This is why I think it's so important to weigh daily but look at longer, at least weekly, trends. It does finally look like I may have put an end to my slow gain since the pandemic started. My daily scale weight is down over 3.5 pounds in the last four days and today's is back inside my ideal range. Not by much, but yay! My ten-day average weight is still actually up about a half pound from a month ago; I was still going up at that point. Average weight is up just shy of two pounds from two months ago and about 4.5 pounds from a quarter ago and a year ago. I had been pretty steady since mid-2018, and rock SOLID steady since the beginning of 2019 up until the end of February this year.
