09/04 - 145.6
09/05 - 146.6 - back to where I started. Not surprised. I found out my dad has prostate cancer and was in a bit of a fog. No logging and a lot of mindless eating. Will recenter today and get back in track. Hoping most of this is water. I would love to her I to the 144s by the end of this 10 days, but will take what I can do.

@Tesha231 No, I left Washington in August, 1969, to go to SIU and have never been back. I had one girl who was my friend and the last I heard she was in Morton. We lived in Colorado from 73-04 and moved back to southern Illinois through 2009 and then on to Las Vegas Valley.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/03 …..211.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/04 …..211.3 ….. Hopefully a fluctuation. Good luck everyone this round!

09/05 …..211.2 ….. Like a pot slowly simmering but never boiling. Life will be rough around here until Christmas (at least) but I will stay engaged even if I’m not laser focused. I love this group and will not give up on myself!

09/06 …..211.2 …..

09/07 …..211.8 ….. Late night eating. Was ravenous. Today will be lots of cabin cleaning so I hope to burn it all off again.

09/08 …..211.6 ….. Finished working yesterday then I went to visit my daughter who was camping locally with my grandson. It was his first camping trip (2 yrs old). It was very cold and rain expected last night. I didn’t eat too much yesterday but there was the cheeseburger and chips at the campground. Today is very very cold and gloomy. What strange weather, even for northern Michigan!

09/09 …..211.4 ….. Out of town yesterday for a 6 hour gig getting a corner desk for my son from Facebook. Our towns are few and far between so it is always an all day and several hundred mile jaunt for anything in my area. Took some heavy lifters with me and provided them with a very nice meal at a far-away restaurant. Food was delicious though not exactly low carb. I watched it for the rest of the evening and it paid off on the scale. Even if I have to inch my way down, I am determined to do what I can during this horribly confusing and trying time in my life. Relief will come, I just don’t know when. In the meantime, I’m doing the happy dance that the scale is moving back down.

I will be back for another round. This will be my second since leaving in February and returning. This should be an interesting round. Hopefully it works out in my favor! Goal is to drop 2 pounds and be at or under 162.xx for 50% of the time.

Rnd 124 SW - 169 EW - 164.3 (-4.7)

09/04 - 164.3 I stayed the same so I am probably done losing all of my water weight. Hopefully I can have another nice drop or 2 this round. I have some dental work later this afternoon, so I doubt I will be eating dinner. I hate going to the dentist and didn't sleep well last night because of it. I will be glad when it is done!

09/05 - 164.7 didn’t eat anything after dental work last night and woke up to shark week a couple days early. Hopefully will go down soon.

09/06 - 161.3 didn’t eat much yesterday because of my dental work from the day before and stomach issues. I’m going to stay on track today and hope I don’t see too big of a spike tomorrow after eating more today.

09/07 - 162.8 I am ok with this. Ate a little more than the last couple of days, but definitely not getting my water in. I can't drink with a straw and hate drinking without one.

09/08 - 164.8 I have no idea where this came from. I did go out and eat sushi yesterday with my kids for an early bday dinner, but didn't think I did this bad and it was my only meal of the day. I am on antibiotics for my tooth, so maybe between the soy sauce and the antibiotics I am retaining a ton of water weight. I know my ring was super tight yesterday and today, which was weird because even a couple of weeks ago when I was 8 pounds heavier it wasn't tight. I am also still dealing with shark week, so it could just be a combination of everything. I am hoping to see a large dip tomorrow. 4 days of eating hardly anything and not having any alcohol should pay off a little bit. Back at work today and have all meals planned.

09/09 - 164.3 I have no idea. It should have gone back down. Maybe this has to do with TOM or the scale is just taunting me right now. Either way I am going to stay on track. I really wanted to end this round with a loss. I can't believe I am back in the 160's after everything it took me last time to get out of them, but I will do what it takes to see the 150's again.

The universe gave me a break! Its back pouring rain but I found a 45 minute gap and quickly went out on a walk. About 20 minutes and 1.5 miles, but better than nothing!!! Made it back with 15 minutes to spare before the monsoon hit. Y'all are the only ones that would understand feeling excited about finding that itty bitty gap in rain to get a quick exercise in.

@CamandJarvis --We really needed rain...but dang. We really didn't need the sky to fall the past couple days. Feel your pain by not being able to get out and walk. Jogging in place is a good idea!

We needed rain (my poor garden was struggling) but now I fear my poor veggies are going to drown with how much rain we are getting. Eek!

MTW70 · September 2020

Female, Age 50, 5'4"
Highest Weight = 181.4
Ultimate Goal Weight = 134

Round 124 = 173.4 (4.6 lbs lost)

Round 125 Goal: I will be going to the beach next week, so my plan is to hopefully maintain through that & not gain. Would love to be under 170 when this round ends but not sure that is doable with a vacation in the mix.

Day/Weight/Comment:

09/04: 172.7 (down .7 from yesterday) Happy with this drop to start this round! Yesterday was my 4th day this week AF, I don't think I will have a drink until we are at the beach next week. Trying to bank some good losses before then! Up for today is a run and cooking a nice dinner tonight, last night was kind of a scavenger hunt for something to make, so my body is craving a real meal tonight.

09/05: 172.6 (down .1 from yesterday) A loss is a loss, so I'll take it! Yesterday was my last day at work before vacation & I was chained to my desk all day for an additional 3+ hours to get everything in order before taking off next week, so never got my planned lunch hour run in or even lunch for that matter. ( I telecommute from home to my office, so usually I can get a work out in on my lunch hour) Today my daughter and I are off on a little road trip to pick up a FB Marketplace find so will be in the car most of the day. Hopefully will be back in time to get a run in and water the lawn before dinner prep begins.

09/06: 171.6 (down 1 lbs from yesterday) A little low on calories yesterday from being in the car for an extended time & my fast lasted 18 hours instead of the usual 16. Got my run in when I got home and was just as fast solo as my last run where my husband really pushed my pace, so progress! Feel the need for super protein today, so planning a steak for dinner + maybe asparagus to go with it. So much to do today, 100 million loads of laundry, packing everything for the beach, meal planning for the week, grocery shopping (staying in a house & taking all the non-perishable with us as just a small market nearby there). And really would like to get another run in today if there is time. Yesterday was my 6th day this week AF (yay!) but need to head to the liquor store today, planning some festive (yet low calorie) alcoholic drinks for the vacay.

09/07: 171.8 (up .2 lbs from yesterday) Slight uptick on this scale this morning, just a normal fluctuation but did weigh in a bit earlier this morning. Had no time to get a run in yesterday but that's okay, my goal is 3 runs a week right now, so yesterday would've just been a bonus run. Fasting yesterday was 20 hours due to being super busy running errands to leave town and 90% of my calories came from dinner. It was on the higher end of my allowed range but still at a deficit. Yesterday marked 7 days AF, hoping to get 4 days AF this new week. I *think* I'm in a good place to stay on track (maintain) at the beach. It is only 4 days and we are still social distancing so plan on cooking in every night except one. I've meal planned and already pre-logged in my dinners (with dessert) and adult beverages to MFP, so as long as I stick to those I should be okay. Cooking out tonight with hot dogs & corn on the grill, plus making coleslaw and a strawberry buttermilk cake. Looking forward to a nicely chilled glass of rosé to top off the day! Happy Labor Day to everyone in the US!

09/08: DNW (Beach) Stayed on the low end of my calories yesterday, 20+ hours fasting, and going with one meal a day (OMAD) whole at the beach. I had wine pre-logged into my calories to enjoy after dinner but didn't even want it, so that makes day 8 AF. On plan for tonight to cook is Tacos, peach cobbler with homemade vanilla ice cream, and Margaritas. I will have a Margarita! Will not weigh in again until Friday morning, I meant to pack my scale but forgot it. I'll still daily check in to keep myself accountable for the choices I make.

09/09: DNW (Beach) Mid range on my calories yesterday (still a deficit), 20+ hours fasting & OMAD. Spent the morning on the beach and then the afternoon had lots and lots of walking. Had 2 Margaritas after dinner that fit into my calories. So delicious but woke up with the puffiest eyes! We are getting BBQ take-out tonight, I've looked at their online menu and pre-logged into MFP as best as I can (not a chain so no exact MFP entries). I think I'll still be in a deficit. No running so far, I think I'll save my 3 weekly runs for Fri, Sat, Sunday when I get back home.

Day/Weight/Walking distance/Comment:

9/8 166.1 Walked 3.25 miles Holiday went well, bbq'd with roommate and her kids. Didn't overeat and I got in a good walk. I'm still not logging in on the weekend to update this. I took Friday off for a long holiday weekend. Ended up hiking 5 miles on Friday and 4 miles on Saturday. I'm surprised I'm not down a little bit more, sodium as always is my bugaboo. My boyfriend has moved closer to me in addition to changing jobs. All the things that made it harder to see him are gone. We're spending tons of time together and it's great. However, he likes that I've lost weight (mostly he likes what 500 miles of walking does to your booty) but he also tries to talk me into pastries. We're going shopping tonight and I'm getting fruit. He can have his cream pastries and I'll have a banana. It's all growing pains and figuring this stuff out. Happy Tuesday ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
9/9 166.3 Walked 0 miles Rain, rain, rain. No walking last night or this morning but it looks good for tonight. I feel like I'm carrying a pound or two of water weight. Fingers crossed it will drop off sooner rather than later.

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.

9/4 115.5 Just learned that DGS#1 is coming home this weekend. He works and goes to school in Phoenix.
9/5 116.0
9/6 117.0 No TMI x 2 days. High carb day yesterday. Margaritas! Going to the neighbors’ for ??dinner?? at 5. Later than we usually eat and no idea what it will be plus she will be sure to send home leftovers - I understand it is a Filipino custom.
9/7 118.0 I track Monday morning weigh ins in another group and noticed this morning that this is the 4th first Monday of the month that I have been 118.0 What an odd coincidence!
9/8 119.0 I expected the carb loaded weekend to catch up. Did not sleep well. Out to lunch with the ladies today.
9/9 117.0 I had steak instead of gyro meat, no pita, but ate some of the fries. Trying to fast until tomorrow morning at 7:30 - 36 hours. If I post that goal in enough places, maybe I’ll be able to make it!

10 DAY GOALS: (1) 10-minutes daily activity (2) Log all food and stay in calorie range (3) Weigh daily and post
Age: 40
Height: 5'7"
Highest weight 158 (3/9/19)
Round 125 starting weight: 144.2
Goal weight: 127

Day/Weight/Comment
09/04 144.2 I'd like to see 143 this round. Happy with this as a starting point!
09/05 144.2 I usually plateau right before I lose, so if I can get through the weekend on track, I might be in for 143 or even 142 very soon. Funny how you can look forward to seeing numbers that once would have been upsetting. I was in the 120s in March, pre-quarantine. Sigh.
09/06 143.6 All right! Now I expect to toggle between 144/143 for a bit. With a week left in this round, I think I'm headed for a real loss this time. That would be encouraging more for what it represents: finally taking charge of my quarantine weight gain and moving closer to the maintenance weight I'd worked so hard to achieve last year.
09/07 142.4 Didn't expect this at all! Yesterday was one of the most stressful days I've experienced in the last few years. A family member had a medical emergency and required emergency treatment (they're okay, thankfully). I was briefly tempted to indulge in a treat I gave my kids, but reminded myself of something I'd read by some wise MFPer (I'd credit them if I could remember who it was): If hunger isn't the problem, food isn't the solution.
09/08 144.2 Not really viewing this as a setback. I had a ton of sodium yesterday. Stayed on track in calories, but all of it was take-out. Things should be calmer today, and I'll be able to eat at home. When the scale treats you to random gains for no apparent reason, it's good to keep in mind some of the reminders @TerriRichardson112 posts: "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."
And my downward trend is looking good, guys!

09/09 143.0 Yesterday was an odd eating day for sure. I tried a protein shake that I couldn't finish (both because it was super filling and gross), so I ended up with only 150 calories until dinnertime. Kind of OMAD-style, I had a lot more calories to 'spend' in the evening, which was fun. Ice cream after dinner, plus a mini Coke (90 calories of my favorite soda- a much more reasonable serving size in a cute little can!). And I was still under calories overall. Not an everyday strategy, but it worked out.

Round 125
My Round 3!

Jillian Age 34 and 5'1"

HSW: 179.8
CSW: 170
GW: 130
Mini GW: 158 will get me out of the obesity category and into the overweight category according to the BMI.

RGW: 167

Round 123 (1): 179.8 to 176.4 (-3.4)
Round 124 (2): 176.4 to 170 (-6.4)

🏃 09/04:170.0 This was excpected because I ate fried chicken. I never lose weight if I eat that, so not gaining is actually a triumph despite eating poorly. I will eat better today.
🏃 09/05:169.4 Great day.
🏃 09/06:169.0 I'm still tracking and losing despite only tracking and not exercising. The lack of exercise is why my loss is slower.
🏃 09/07:169.8 Even though I stayed within my calorie limit at first, I stayed up too late. At around 2 AM, my husband got some Taco Bell, and I had one little taco. That was all it took to take away progress.
🏃 09/08::170.2 These numbers are going the wrong way, lol. I am not eating more than my limit. I do not want to reduce my calorie intake, so I better pick my Switch fitness games back up now. Maybe I should get the Boxing game to give myself some variety. It is harder to post here when I am not doing well, but I do not want to regain the 10 pounds I've lost, so I know it is important to be here.
🏃 09/09: 170.8 I did my Ring Fit Adventure yesterday, and I will play again today. At this point, I don't even care about the round goal. I just want to start going back down again!

Looking forward:
You are not stuck at home
You are SAFE at home
One word can change your attitude
One cough can change your life

Take care! Stay safe!

August focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:

2020 Focus:

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 by keeping busy

Never give up! Never give in!
Recent Back Story:

2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Working on it. Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
That's a WIN in my book!
2020
Focus: 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!

I'm in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!

70 year 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. Recovered from back surgery then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurt! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle. THEN...I face planted on the sidewalk while walking. Messed up my face, wrist and knee...sigh...Must keep going, tho.

The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

R125: Continue checking in daily even though we’ll be at our fishing camp with no scale. Every small habit still counts scale or no scale. This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
🎯Mini Goal: 225 I’ll not longer be morbidly obese
7 weeks till 60th birthday 💖
10 weeks till 37th wedding anniversary 💕
4 months till next physical 🩺

Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:
09/04 229.3 Starting this challenge off in the 20s! Never want to revisit the 30s again. Remember that as you go through a week without a scale. Don't want a surprise when I return for the next challenge! Today I’m walking 3 miles in this darn heat before driving 5 hours. Packed our lunch so that we don’t have a fast food emergency.
09/05 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Last night I forgot to thaw our steak so pulled out Plan B keto friendly frozen pizza. I’m so glad that I packed a few quick alternatives just in case since there are no restaurants near by. Plan to continue walking this week … 4 miles round trip thru the nearby county park to the boat ramp. I now have hand weights and yoga mats for the camp too for permanent residence here! Ready for the week.
09/06 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked! Food wise I was good for the majority of the day; however, 3 Saint Arnold Summer Pills at 155 calories & 11 carbs each was not a good choice as we sat outside during the evening. I did skip the chips & dip sitting in front of me and brought my own low carb tortillas for the fajitas.
09/07 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked my 3+ miles in the morning. Fished in the late afternoon. Sauted shrimp avocado salad for lunch & steak, prosciutto wrapped asparagus, cauliflower rice au gratin for dinner. Kept to my promise to myself 4 nights alcohol free per week … AF last night sipping on Fresca while others indulged. It was a wonderful day of me taking care of me

09/08 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked, fished, cooked fajitas (both chicken & beef so that we would have it for leftovers for the week), drank water, AF, tracked food … things are going as planned. While checking on my mom’s house yesterday afternoon I stepped on her scale and it indicated I’m still in the 220s … so not slipping back into the 230s! WHEW.
09/09 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked (jogged a little). Caught 3 large speckled trout fishing. Grilled Caprese Burger (homemade beef burger with butter lettuce, tomato, mozzarella, basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and no bun) for dinner with what my kids call a skinny margarita on the rocks (tequila, cointreau, lime juice & light agave nectar). Overall good day.
09/10 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked in morning & yoga with friends over Zoom in the evening. Fish tacos! So much better with fresh fish you catch. On track with food and AF.

09/10 - DNW - Didn't have time to weigh as I had to take BF to hospital for surgery this am. Now doing laundry in hopes of getting as much dog hair off his sheets and blankets as possible. I'm being uprooted from the bedroom into daughter's room with the dog (she LOVES to plop right on him at night and short dog hair+surgery=bad. It gets everywhere.) Got plenty to do with the house and actual work before I head back at 930 (pickup is scheduled at 10/1030 right now). Hopefully that will get me plenty of steps in to count as a small workout. Last night was horrid. I battled a headache all day (excedrin didn't do a thing) but last night around dinner it went into a full blown migraine. I got dizzy, couldn't focus my vision, nauseous, etc. Almost threw up when I went to bed. Have a small lingering headache in back of head this am but was finally able to pass out last night and rid of the worst of it. Tossed and turned all morning since 3am (similar to yesterday but was able to doze a few times for a few minutes this morning unlike yesterday). Not sure what happened... Chugging water and trying not to eat my stress away today is the goal, especially once BF is home and I have to wrangle the dog (who is likely to be super freaked out).

Previous Day's Comments

09/04 - Worth it! We had a mini girls night last night, I got to go to a new restaurant so I splurged a little trying things and had a glass of wine with dinner. The storm derailed our original plans which I planned my breakfast and lunch around but this new place was much fancier and harder to plan around. Ended up getting the grilled trout. I hit my water goal before leaving the house and had several glasses of water in between sipping my wine. We shall see how bad this derailed me tomorrow.
09/05 - DNP
09/06 - I didn't get a chance to post yesterday. The uptick was the day 2 of Girl's Night Friday and very much expected. We had our Fantasy football draft (its my first one in person) with Fam yesterday. It was crazy busy getting 3 drafts done and I DEFINITELY did not get water in. We had wings, tatortots, and fries available for food so it was that or nothing at all. I know sodium is high and dehydration retention is high so I decided to give myself grace today and tomorrow to recover before I subject myself to what is probably not pleasant weigh-ins. No need to mentally destroy myself for circumstances not entirely under my control. I will be catching up this morning on yesterday's updates and I will be back to post tomorrow, assuming nothing crazy interrupts my morning, to stay accountable and get the much needed support to be back on track. Love you all so dearly!
09/07 - Late posting, but had a busy busy day that started earlier than normal for days off. Ended up getting to go to the zoo with Fam (BF and I's first time) because they secured day passes and requested 2 free guests off their annual membership in case we said yes. Then pitstop at Old Navy for FamWife and I to get clothes for an impromptu river swim on the way home. Lunch wasn't great- taco bell, but all the other places nearby the zoo were closed or super duper busy. Kept it small and simple. Dinner was homemade shrimp pad thai and egg rolls with some tofu on the side and a kale salad. May have had a little too much of pad thai but the veggies and shrimp in it were so amazing. Water was super expensive (and couldn't bring your own) so I'm short on water, but still chugging away. A lot more walking than I anticipated, but less than I'd like (by the time I was ready to go for my morning walk, I had to shower super quick to leave on time). I'll still come to post regardless of weigh-in decision which I'll make depending on how I feel when I wake up. Choosing to take a mental break so I don't overstress or freak out over a false high (I call them false because its mostly water retention and bloating, not actual fat) is a really really pleasant thing and I wish I had given myself that opportunity in the past rather than beat myself up and super restrict. Its freeing knowing that I've learned so much about my body from this group that I can step away when I know its necessary but still have the support of the group with no judgement.
09/08 - Woke up late for work... Luckily not too late and boss was super chill when he realized I made it to the meeting (I was about 10 minutes late to meeting but he didn't realize I was on until we all almost hung up). Didn't want to weigh in this morning anyway, so this was simply the universe ensuring I couldn't. I chugged water while on the call before ever stepping into the bathroom where the scale is. I feel so dehydrated and bloated this am. I know it is all water weight from yesterday. With that, today's goals: get a walk in once I can get to my closet without waking up BF, focus on water intake, and eat good, healthy, filling foods. Also, get back on IF. I may not hit the full 16, but aiming for at least 15 hours due to a later than normal dinner yesterday. Edit: Walking may not happen as it just started pouring rain. I didn't realize it was supposed to rain before Wednesday! Maybe, if it calms down this evening and dinner isn't too late, I'll take the pup out for an after-dinner walk. Its been getting darker earlier so my evening walks have been suffering a bit.
09/09 - Pre-TOM weight kicking in, I guess. I feel back to normal as far as water weight goes but I know TOM will be here any day now. Upsetting coming off grace period feeling ok, like I'm back down in weight, only for my weigh in to be higher than I expected because hormones.... Hopefully it'll drop quickly, though. Going to keep chug-a-lugging my water. No walk, its raining like crazy. Woke up at 345 wide eyed and bushy tailed for absolutely no reason. Then got scared when my phone went off with a immediate danger flash flood warning. I might need a nap between all my meetings today. No walk, its still absolutely pouring rain and seems it will be for the rest of the week. Need to figure out how to get steps in while in this little house. Nowhere I walk is more than 5-6 steps before a 180 so getting a nice brisk pace is impossible. Maybe I just jog in place and hope for the best?

Good morning everybody and happy Thursday! It is a rainy depressing mess here in NYC, which is not helping my productivity any. Fingers crossed for a break in the downpour long enough to take a walk. And I WILL resistance train today. I will. If I tell the internet, surely that makes it true.

09/10: 226.2 A small bump up from yesterday, but I am not concerned. It's that time of the month, and I can feel my body just holding on to water. The extra half pound is not real. See where I'm at tomorrow!

SW: 143

Day/Weight/Comment
09/04 - 141.5 - This won't last but, wow, I haven't seen this weight since early March. We have a family picnic planned for Sunday and I expect to eat more than usual, so I'm glad I seem to be at the low end of maintenance for now.
09/05 - 142.5 - This is not a surprise. I taste tested too much while I was baking for the picnic. I ate lighter today and I'm planning to enjoy tomorrow with food and a few drinks so I'll just hope I can keep it below 145 on Monday.
09/06 - 143
09/07 - 143
09/08 - 144 - Back to the office after a long weekend and lots of food and drink. I'm going to stay at weight loss calories and hope to get back down to 143 by the end of the round.
09/09 - 144 - I'm happy I haven't continued to bump up.
09/10 - 143.5 - Yay! I signed my husband and I up for our county "Fall Hiking Spree." We have 20 metroparks in our area with numerous trails. We have to hike 8 trails by November 30th and then we'll be given a hiking staff and a badge. It's something I've wanted to do for years, but we've been so busy we could never find the time. Thanks to Covid-19 we had to ease back on our social obligations, but that gives us time to see areas of our county that we have not visited and burn a few extra calories.

Age: 57
MFP & Challenge Start Weight: 289.8
Ultimate Goal Weight: One-derland

Goal for this round:
1. Lose 1 lb.
2. Do some kind of exercise.
3. Get up and walk around every chance I get.

Day/Weight/Comment:

09/05: 289.8

09/06: 288.6 (-1.2 lb loss) Hopefully, this is a good sign of how the rest of this challenge will go. 😄 But, I know when weighing daily weight can fluctuate. ⬆️⬇️

09/07: 287.8 (-0.8) ⬇️

09/08: 288 (+0.2) ⬆️ This is expected when weighing daily. I'm ok with this small amount of increase.

09/09: 286.8 (-1.2) ⬇️ I'm happy with this loss. 😄 Hopefully, will continue to lose weight the next 3 days, to end round on a positive loss.

09/10: 288.4 (+1.6) ⬆️ This is definitely my fault. 😩 I ate unhealthy and too much last night. 😡 I'll have to do much better today and the next 3 days.
