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.
09/10 143.0 Actually ended up eating fairly similar to the day before. Protein shake was all I had time for. Would like to see 142 to end this round, but if not, I'll be there shortly. All I can do is control the process, not the resulting number on the scale.
09/11 142.6 A super motivating weigh- in headed into the weekend! My goal is to keep my precious 142. It's pizza night, and I will budget accordingly, as I did last night for a bacon guacamole burger and fries. Had half the burger and since I knew it was going to be such a heavy dinner, I skipped an afternoon snack and had only a few dark chocolates after dinner. Stayed in calories just fine.

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!
🏃 09/10: 170.2 Well at least it's going back down!
🏃 09/11: 170.2 It didn't go up again, so I'm not too disappointed. I know I'll break through this eventually! I got my boxing game today to add variety to my Switch Jump Rope Challenge, Ring Fit Adventure, and Just Dance. Ring Fit Adventure added planks as an exercise today and that hurt (in a good way)!

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.

09/05 142.6 lbs. 1,305 Calories, 6 Carbs, 4 Net Carbs, 7,633 steps and 30 minutes water aerobics. Low Carbs today because I need to go SHOPPING!!! As you can see my weight is up and down but not over my goal of 145 limit. This is what I call maintenance. It’s a work in progress! 🤗
09/06 142.6 lbs 1,582 Calories, 68 Carbs, 65 Net Carbs and 6,791 steps. Carbs higher but I feel they are healthy carbs. Had a nice southern Illinois peach with yogurt and veggies today. Calories higher due a Low Carb dessert.
09/07 142.0 lbs 1,448 Calories, 49 Carbs, 30 Net Carbs, and 12,918 steps.

09/11 141.8 lbs 1,328 Calories, 76 Carbs, 60 Net Carbs and 10,609 steps. Carbs are higher due to the ice cream I just couldn’t pass up! 🍦. But I did enjoy every bite!!. I always seem to do this at the end of each round. But I think it will be ok not over in Calories.

Another problem to be managed!!

09/11 133.2 - No structured walk yesterday. Scales do not reflect my non disciplined eating, need to get a grip!!
09/12 135 – there it goes! Still a bad day yesterday . Right, todays a new day, I've logged todays food for the day; that worked to get me back on track last time, I know it won't help with the end of this round, but get back on track for the new one. 10.04 miles walked yesterday, stopped logging my food when I got way to many calories over. P.S. Couldn't get to log yesterday with MFP problems!!!

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.
09/11 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Not an official WI but stepped on my mom’s scale next door this morning 225.4. Boy would I love that to be real when I get home. 🤞Walked my 3 miles in the rain yesterday morning and I was soaked through and through. Left the rain jacket at the camp duh! The park rangers kept driving by to check on me to make sure I didn’t want to give up and catch a ride back. Returned home and not sure if it was walking in the cool wet weather or the yoga the night before but I was exhausted! Spent the evening sitting on the dock sipping skinny margaritas.
09/12 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked this morning and fished in the late afternoon. Mid 70s! Evening sunset with a Charcuterie board of smoke gouda, various salami, almonds and olives with a terrible cheap sweet pinot noir which I didn't finish (only thing at the grocery store near camp). Back to my water!5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
09/04 - 191.6 I'm happy to see that. After my daughter's softball game yesterday she really wanted a caramel frappe from McDonalds, which also happens to be my weakness. I had iron clad willpower and didn't get one for myself as well lol I set my goal to lose 3 lbs in this challenge, which seems like a little too much but I really can't wait to see the 180's, so I'm hoping that my willpower sticks around! My youngest 2 kiddos and I are going to our lake lots to camp this weekend so I wont be weighing in tomorrow, and I'm sure there will be a small bump in my weight. Have a good weekend
09/05 - DNW. We are camping. Ate horribly yesterday 😮 I'm going to try to do way better today!
09/06 -193.4 We came home a day early from camping. I knew there would be a jump in my weight but I didn't think it would be nearly 2 lbs. For some reason even if I eat healthy when we are camping I still hold onto some extra weight for a few days. I'm still optimistic that I will see the 180's in this challenge, but if not, I won't beat myself up for it. I think this camping trip was our last for the summer and the 2 lbs was worth it
09/07 - 191.8 That's better! Happy Labor Day, hope you all have a great one! I work today so I will get plenty of steps in.
09/08 - 191.0 I definitely got plenty of steps in yesterday. I'm a waitress and I'm starting to see that my knees dont hurt as much anymore after a long busy shift. I'm very thankful for that. I was able to go for a walk last night and still had energy. I like these non scale victories as much as I do seeing the scale move!
09/09 - 189.8 I got to see the 180's, barely but I made it!! Now I just hope I can keep them around. The lowest I got the last time I tried to lose weight was 183, so that is my first mini goal this go around.
09/10 - 189.2 Very close to my round goal. It's raining here so I'm not sure that I will get in a walk today. I'm also off work today, so I will try to keep myself busy around the house to get some steps in.
09/11 - 188.4 I'm loving this trend and I sure hope it sticks around! I closed out my diary by 5pm yesterday. I was really full after dinner and I only had 10 calories left. If I close it out I typically won't eat anything else. I didn't need to either. Hubby made his famous pork chops and I stuffed myself I knew that's what he was making so I planned accordingly and was pretty proud of myself for staying within my calorie limit for the day. Happy Friday!
09/12 - 188.0 Pretty excited about this. I keep thinking I'm going to jump back up. Hope you all have a great weekend.

09/12 - 156.1 - TOM is kicking my butt... maybe its the added stress of being nurse to BF or something but holy moly symptoms. My poor lower belly was bloated tight as a rock this morning and my fingers are all swollen. I hit my water goal yesterday so not sure what's going on since this NEVER seems to happen. I have to retain a ton of water to get swollen fingers (usually my face gives it away first for some reason). I also feel heavy and my stomach is a bit achy. Going to try to fast for longer so long as I don't get too nauseous and drink my water early in hopes of dropping some water weight. Blaming it on TOM and stress because my eating wasn't great, but it wasn't horrible -- especially not bad enough for all this.
09/13
Previous Day's Comments09/04 - 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?
09/10 - 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).
09/11 - Surprised to be back down after yesterday. I didn't do my IF, I kinda stress ate, I was 100% nursemaid focused on BF. Did get a lot of water in, though. Nerve block wore off and BF in ton of pain so probably hanging around the house and helping him. I'm working today but have nothing going on and everyone knows I'll be helping him. Don't think I'll manage my goal but if I can get back down to 153.x I'll be content.

Goal for this round: to lose 1 lb. It would be even better to get below 190!
I plan to keep my calories around 12-1300 each day and continue drinking all my water.
Round 124 SW 193.4 EW 191.6 (-1.8 )
Round 125 SW 191.8 EW ?
Day/Weight/Comment
09/04 191.8 to start this round. I didn't drink enough water yesterday and didn't realize it until bedtime. Also, I thought I came in at 1293 calories yesterday and then realized I also ate walnuts as I was cooking bc I waited too long to start dinner. Plan for today.. only snack at planned snack time. Do not eat mindlessly.
09/05 192.8 today, I didn't mindlessly snack but we went out for dinner last night. I had half a nacho order and it was DELICIOUS but I'm paying the price in salt water weight today! Water water!
09/06 191.6 water weight dropped off a bit. healthy groceries for this week with minimal "treats" so not very many temptations are available.
09/07 192.0 up down up down. My trend line on libra still shows down so I'll take it. I went to yoga yesterday and my shoulders and hamstrings are so sore today! Also my girlfriends and are have having an afternoon tea today complete with scones and clotted cream, so I'm budgeting my calories around that!
09/08 191.2 lowest number this round. we shall see about tomorrow, I had a higher cal day and a bit salty dinner.
09/09 192.4 sitting on the trend line today, so I hope for a drop tomorrow to keep the momentum going. Plan for today:
B: coffee and more coffee, greek yogurt and berries
L: greek Salad with chicken dressed with olive oil and balsamic
Snack: carrots and cucumbers with light ranch dip, green tea
Dinner : cod with lemon and green beans, cinnamon apples with chopped walnuts for dessert
09/10 190.2! back on track with the downward trend and super excited for this number. fingers crossed it sticks
09/11 189.2 a whole pound down since yesterday feels amazing! nothing like seeing some results for continued motivation! Heading into the weekend without any major temptations in sight.
09/12 188.8 Even better, this is an awesome "whoosh" I'm having. I def. expect it to slow down but for now, Happy dance!

09/08 - 169.5 So I weighed every day since after Friday but only entered it all today. Look at that crazy 1 pound up and down. lol I'd like to act like I don't know why my scale is acting like that, but I am a bad liar. Of all the treats I enjoyed over labor day weekend, my 5 mo old grandson was my favorite.
09/09 - 169.9 Lost and Found:Found. 1.1 pounds. Sometimes disguised as 17 ozs. Answers to bad choices, including Dots pretzels, ice cream and the hubs homemade air fryer donuts. Approach with caution. Runs from IF, water, logging balanced nutrition and long walks. Happy to return it to its rightful owner by 9/13.
09/10 - 170.1 So normally a bump up or down of an oz or two doesn't excite me much...but that "7" though! It will NOT be there tomorrow and I'm a bit surprised it is there today after 14,600 steps yesterday.
09/11 - 169 12,980 steps. This round's goal seems out of reach, but that's ok. In a couple more days we'll start R126!
09/12 - 168 15,801 steps yesterday, but also slept in so will need to be extra prudent if I intend to drop 3 oz to make goal tomorrow

@HoopsGuy72 Glad you are sticking with us. It’s hard to post some days, especially when there are variables you can’t control. Stay safe and keep doing the best you can. We’re a pretty selfish group (lol) and would be sad if you left our family.6

9/4 - 181.2 - 1357 - snack <200 - walked 70 min 😊
Yesterday was a good day. For whatever reason(s), I feel much more in control and determined. I seem to be succeeding at curtailing my night-time snack habit. I’ve set a goal of losing 1 pound/round, which seems realistic even with holiday season coming up. I guess one good thing about the lack of social gatherings is the reduced supply of beautiful goodies everywhere! Anyway, here’s to a great round for everyone.
9/5 - 182 - 1372 - snack >200 ☹️ - walked 50 min
There’s an uptick that makes me scratch my head. Oh, well. I’ve been making my calorie goal and my average is just barely higher, so on the right track. It’s cool and lovely here today and I hope to finish my current garden bed expansion and then maybe do some painting. All good! Have a lovely Saturday, all!
9/6 - 181.2 - 1672 - snack 🍨 >200 😐 - 3 hrs digging and hauling dirt 🙂
I went over my goal yesterday but did a lot of heavy work in the garden, and I was hungry! It’s ok, and I finished expanding one border, so the new area is read for plating. Today’s project — refinishing an end table I got for $20. This morning I sanded the old finish off the top. I plant to put a light stain on it and paint the body and legs. Primer on the lower parts this afternoon! Do something creative today — it’s good for the soul!
9/7 - 181.8 - 1659 ☹️ - snack Triscuits & cheese - walked 65 min
No idea why I got snacky last night, but today will be better. I’ve promised myself! Off to get stain for my end table top. I painted the body and legs yesterday and they look great — I’m excited to see it finished! Have a safe & happy Labor Day, and remember the people who worked hard for workers’ benefits and safety.
9/8 - 181.4 - 1507 - snack 🍿
Ok, holiday over, back to fighting off the snack monster. Lots to do today, which should help. I finished my end table makeover. Still drying, so ignore the backdrop, but what do you think? It started with a beat up, very dark cherry finish.
9/9 - 182.4 ☹️ - 1735 ☹️ - snack 🍨
Aaack! Very very not-on-track day yesterday! We had tuna casserole for dinner (yep, the old-fashioned kind) and then for who knows why I had ice cream later. I wasn’t even hungry. 😡 Obviously some of the gain is water, but still.... otoh, my calorie average is below maintenance, so this should be a minor glitch. It’s really cool today, so off for a long walk. I read how on track the rest of you are and feel inspired to get control again. Thank you all!
9/10 - 181.8 - 1597 - snack Triscuits
I did reasonably well yesterday, though high on sodium from leftover casserole and my Triscuit snack. Feeling a little puffy, but not bad. I’m in a small creative-women’s support group (just four of us — I’m a writer/painter, one painter/interior designer, one rug hooker, one quilter) — and we’ve been meeting outdoors at one another’s homes all summer (zooming March - April). Tonight they’re coming here and we decided to make it dinner this time since it may be our last outdoor face-to-face (distanced!) for a while. So I probably won’t pig out too much, but expect higher than normal calories. It will be worth it — these 3 are a major link to sanity at the moment! Hoping all of you in the West are safe, and wishing you all beauty, friendship, and delight.
9/11 - 181.6 - 1600 - snack 🍨
Our group dinner was cancelled due to weather. We’ll try next week. Today I have to bake cookie for a “thing” but I will minimize taste testing. Making maple cookies — mmmm. Going for a walk while the dough chills. Have a lovely Friday!
9/12 - 182 - 1545 - snack - don’t ask
Bleagh. What’s wrong with me? I can’t seem to stop eating at night. I’m seriously thinking of shifting my food day to start with lunch. I don’t expect I’ll hit my goal for the round. Again. OTOH, it’s a lovely if cloudy day here and we’re healthy, so there’s that. I baked maple pecan cookies for a “thing,” and had one bite of one to sample. Happy with that at least. Have a good weekend.
