Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 - 142.5 - We picked up some crusty homemade bread yesterday and I've been indulging. I expect to see the results over the next few days, so I'll have to be especially mindful this week and freeze the leftover bread.
10/05 - 142.5
10/06 - 142.5
10/07 - 142.5 - My scale was bouncing all over this morning so I'm taking the average.
10/08 - 141.5 - I had an appointment at a corporate client office yesterday. It's been a over a year since I've seen the controller there and since I've pretty much stayed around maintenance since then I was surprised when she asked if I had lost more weight. I said "Oh no, I'm still around 142." Then I laughed and said "I'm so used to telling people on MFP what I weigh every day, I forgot most people wouldn't dream of it."
10/09 - 142 - My step-daughter and her family flew up from Florida yesterday and we're having a socially distant bonfire tonight. I'm eating light today since I'm sure there will be plenty of food and "beverages."
10/10 - 142.5 - The next few days will tell the tale of the past couple days. I've had a good time though and this doesn't happen often.
10/11 - 142.5
10/12 - 142
10/13 - 143 - There's the weekend indulgences. See you next round.

SW 126.2 (April 14th, 2020)
Highest lifetime weight: 138 lbs. August 2011
Goal Weight: 110
Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4 ->115
Goal weight for this round: Getting back to 114 would be nice.
Another goal: Embrace the scale fluctuations and not get flustered.
Previous days10/04 Did not post10/09 DNW busy with moving plans
10/05 Did not post
10/06 115.4 This past weekend we decided to move out for a period of time to keep my mother in law safe (she starts chemo this week) from any possible exposure my husband gets from his OT fieldwork placements and going back into the classroom for the rest of his school semester (everything has been online since September for him but his labs are in person starting next week). So the past three days have been a whirlwind. This week I will be MIA most likely because we were able to find a place really quickly and planning to move in this weekend! Yay! It’s on the third floor with no elevator, so I will certainly get a workout in this weekend! We love the space though and are really excited to be completely independent (we were independent but neither one of us has lived without some sort of parent in the same house). We may still renovate our in-laws basement to put in a bathroom and kitchen (to then move back when construction is complete and my husband finishes his fieldwork), but we’ll see how we like apartment living first.
I hope everyone has a great round and I’ll try to pop in or at least throw my weight in an entry.
10/07 114.0 Got a soccer workout in this morning. Food was good yesterday, no idea what’s on the agenda today. We packed up all of our pantry and the majority of our kitchen, so I have veggies in the fridge to work with and whatever protein I cook for dinner. We got some corn on the cob in our CSA this week, so I’m looking forward to having that soon! Have a good day everyone!
10/08 113.0 Badda boom, finally hit 113! I think I’m one of those people who only get to their lowest weight about once a month. I guess I’ll see if that’s completely true once we have been living in our new apartment and preparing all of our own food. I’m so so so so excited to have our own kitchen that we don’t have to share with anyone! It’s going to be so much fun for me! I have a walk planned for this morning, but I’m waiting for it to get a little lighter out because it’ll just be me. There is something a little creepy about walking on the streets by yourself in the dark when there isn’t much traffic.
Dinner last night was a NY strip steak with roasted purple potatoes, corn on the cob, and salad. Tonight, might be pizza with a salad to keep it simple with packing more stuff tonight. We should get the official word (even though they told us we have it and gave us the move-in day for Saturday) today that we have the apartment (just waiting on that darn background check which takes 2-3 days in Mass).
10/10 Moved
10/11 *
10/12 *
10/13 112 after exercise this morning. So, I’ll go with 113 to start my day maybe? I forgot to weigh before exercising. Ooops. This was a very solid round for me. Moving was crazy and consisted of two solid days of going up and down two flights of stairs to our new apartment. On the bright side, we are all unpacked and the place is wonderful! Our first meal in the apartment was chicken fingers and French fries with salad on Sunday night. Last night I made pork tenderloin roasted in the oven with lots of veggies! (Veggies used: radishes, broccoli, golden beets, fennel, carrots, a purple potato, and I cooked the pork on a bed of chopped up scallions.) It felt like a dream being able to prepare dinner so easily!
See you in the next round!
Total weight lost this round: 2 lbs maybe more but I’ll go with 2 for now. I’ll call it a major success because I had been hovering in 114-115 land for a long time!

Better day yesterday in terms of food, though I did have some air-popped popcorn in the evening. I spent most of the day painting our interior doors 🚪, which I find very calming and meditative. I seem to be nesting like crazy! It’s cold and rainy this morning — a good day to stay in and do the final coat and then curl up to read or knit. ☕️🛋📚 Have a lovely day, all!
10/5 - 182.4 - 1534 - 🍌
Bump from a few days ago, I’m sure. Chilly & foggy this morning, but it’s supposed to warm up and be back in the 60-70s the rest of the week. Good — I have a couple hundred bulbs to plant! (I went a little nuts at the bulb store!) I finished painting all the hallway doors on the hallway side. Today I need to do a few room-side doors, and maybe start on the armoire I’m making into a pantry. Wheee! Keeps me from sitting around munching — maybe I should do more of the same at night! 😁 Anyway, happy Monday, all!
10/6 - 182 - 1701 - 🍨🍿☹️
Ok, I snacked last night. I also took a nice long walk, and was active most of the day, so not too bad. Today will be better! And I’m off to vote — first day of early voting here in Indiana. Then I’m planning to putter in the garden a bit, and go for a walk, and make a pot of minestrone. Anything to avoid my real work (writing), which I can do when it’s gray and gloomy and cold.
🤓📚💻✍🏼👩💻
10/7 - 182 - 1550 - late lunch, late supper
Yesterday was a strange day — waited three hours to vote, but the crowd was inspiring, so that was fine. Schedule was off the rest of the day, though. It’s gorgeous and warm today — yay!
10/8 - 181.8 - 1308 - 🍿
Ok, I behaved myself pretty well yesterday. I did indulge in some popcorn, but overall my numbers were good, and I spent lots of time working in the garden. All good. I’m really enjoying these gorgeous October days!
10/9 - 181.6 - 1637 - 🍿
Wow, another gorgeous day here. I’m counting my lucky stars, knowing that many people are living with disasters. I hope you’re all safe. This afternoon my creativity group of four is meeting, probably our last in-person gathering for a while unless we have a warmer-than-usual start to November. We can zoom, but it’s not the same. Sigh. Anyway, I’m baking maple pecan cookies (70 cal each) and I’m sure there will be other munchies, so I have to watch myself. This morning, post cookies, I’m going to start planting my bulbs. I went a little crazy buying bulbs, so my work is cut out for me! 🙂 And yes, @quiltingjaine , I will sit my fanny down and write. A little. 🤓
10/10 - 183 😳 - 1925 best guess 🙄 - snacks galore
I munched way too much during my group’s Last get together of the year (unless Nov is really warm!). Our host had mimosas for us — usually we drink coffee! — and lots of salty and sweet treats, plus my cookies. I ate more chips than I’ve eaten in the past year, and crap I never eat, like candy corn. I could seem to stifle myself. Oh, well. Life goes on, and I know this quick gain is water and my calorie average over the past week is ok. I had a low cal breakfast and have the day planned and will try hard to stick with the plan. Have a good weekend, everyone. I’m off for a walk, then planting my 200+ bulbs.
10/11 - 182 - 1564 - 🍨
Better. I told DH not to let me have any more ice cream. I know I’m snacking on that sort of stuff because I’m mildly depressed. I need to walk more, write more, get back to painting (mostly watercolor, some oil), knit while I listen to music or books.... I’m also going to try to send a card and note to one person a day I haven’t spoken to in too long. I really miss seeing my people!
10/12 - 182 - 1708 - 🍿
Not great yesterday but not too bad, either. Today we’re ordering Greek food, a tradition to celebrate the day we met — 29 years ago today. ❤️ I’ll try to keep the day’s total under control, but plan to enjoy my celebratory meal!
10/13 - 182 - 1671 - no snacks!
Ok, it’s a wash. Again. But considering yesterday’s pig out on Greek food, I’m ok with that. We have leftover gyro meat, but I’ll forego the pita today and make a salad instead. See you next round!

10/4-162-Walked 2 miles, then weed wacked. Started digging up the yard to bring in topsoil. Got fundraiser takeout that had salty sausages, but was really good!
10/10-159-I’ve been digging in the yard and quilting.
10/11-161-sat at a fundraiser for the garden club all day.
10/12-159-Careful eating. Today I can get back in the yard.
10/13-I dug and hauled dirt all day then made (almond flour) keto garlic cheese bread to go with baked fish........I ate too much, but it was good!7 -

10/04 199 getting tired of seeing this number. No TV for 3 year olds this weekend. At school they were play fighting and she broke his glasses on purpose. I HAVE BEEN SO MAD. So this week I am going to watch my wine consumption and practice mindfulness
10/05 199.1 I love them but I now am beginning to understand the term brain damaged from Sinbad or Bill Cosby Himself. You feel like you keep repeating yourself and repeating yourself and repeating yourself and when you lose your mind and they look at you like your crazy. I feel like a crazy person right now. I took them for a walk yesterday and got a dance in yesterday and did 4 loads of laundry. 15887 steps and 1851 calories.
10/06 197.6 home with a sick daughter. Her asthma tends to act up at this time of year. The school will not do nebulizers anymore. I do like the progress
10/07 198 yesterday 1815 calories 11638 steps two short aerobic workout. My calves are sore this morning. I did some serious stretching this morning and a low impact workout. I might get a walk in this afternoon but nothing too strenuous. Progress is slow but it is happening.
10/08 198.6 going the wrong way. 1706 calories 15019 steps
10/09 197.5 There it is. Went way over in calories but did well in steps. I am hungry. New England is cooling down and eating is just natural. My snacks seem like they are not enough anymore. I think next week I will try an afternoon tea. Black cherry tea with lime juice. Drink it slowly and it should curb this hunger. This time of year is hard. Apple picking with my babies this weekend. Hayride and playground. I cannot buy any fudge. Now that’s it’s in print. I won’t.
10/10 198.1 hungry so hungry. No matter what I've eaten today I am still hungry. since 10am very large breakfast still hungry all day...10/11
10/11 198.6 won’t even tell you how bad my calories were yesterday. Apple picking today.
10/12 197.6 Yesterday not as much eating very active. 19061 steps 1987 calories. Still way under based. That farm was very large and very dirty. Legs are sore today.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 133.8 - no structured walking yesterday due to travelling back home and persistent train ?, hence eating yesterday was at maintenance level. Really hoping this rain stops soon ,?.
10/05 133.2 - 9.55 miles walked yesterday, 774 calories in credit, all macros in green. Feeling refreshed after holiday and ready to push on.
10/06 133.2 – 6.26 miles walked yesterday (struggling to get miles in with the rain!) 28 calories in credit but 15g carbs over.
10/07 133.6 - 11.08 miles walked yesterday, so pleased the rain held off during the morning. 869 calories in credit, all macros in green.
10/08 133.6 – 12.7 miles walked yesterday, 724 calories in credit & all macros in green.
10/09 133.6 – only 3.83 miles walked yesterday, running around following my 2.5 year old DGS around a country park, jumping him over logs, rocks, splashing through puddles – you get the picture!! Hence 427 calories, 107g carbs & 7g fat over. Todays a more easily controlled day, but Friday is pizza night !!!
10/10 133.6 – 9.4 miles walked yesterday, 521 calories in credit & all macros in green.
10/11 133.4 - 7.54 miles walked yesterday. 328 calories in credit, all macros in green. Ready to move down out of the 133's now!!
10/12 133.4 - 13.48 miles walked yesterday on Cannock Chase, our local AONB, fabulous autimnal colours in the trees and we were treated to the sight of a stag crossing the path in front of us on three seperate occasions – such an amazing sight. 791 calories in credit, all macros in green.
10/13 133.4 – 11.07 miles walked yesterday, not a good eating day; I confess to going on a chocolate binge, luckily kept yesterdays weight, lets hope tomorrows scale is kind to me!!! 0.4 pounds last since end of last round.
KEEP SAFE EVERYONE . Keep calm – we're all in this together!

Age: 39
Height: 5’ 4”
SW: 163
CW: 150.4
GW: 145
UGW: 130
GW for this round: 148
Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
10/04 - 150.4 - Continuing to hold steady from the end of the last round. Feeling great - I chopped my hair off last night and I don’t think I did that bad of a job! Got out for a run this morning and will be meal prepping this afternoon.
10/05 - 151.0 - The only reason I can think of for this gain is water weight - so hopefully I’ve got a whoosh coming in my future! I ran about 2 miles yesterday, then did a 3+ mile family hike (pushing 70+ lbs of kids and stroller), so I know I came in under calories since I didn’t eat differently from usual. I did my regular workout this morning and will track carefully this week.
10/06 - 150.4 - And back down again. Pretty tired this morning- feeling very heavy and low on energy. I took the kids out to a nearby garden this morning and let them run and play - really hoping that means a good nap for the toddler and an easier afternoon.
10/07 - 150.0 - Oooo, so close! I haven’t seen below 150 since my almost 5 year old was born. (Of course, by saying this I’ve guaranteed it will go back up tomorrow, right?) Tweaked something in my back yesterday which made sleep hard, but feeling better this morning.
10/08 - 149.6 - *happy dance* I can do this! I am doing it, and I will keep doing it! Yay!
10/09 - 149.4 - Very happy that the scale stayed under 150. We had takeout burgers and fries for dinner last night, and while I tried to keep mine reasonably healthy (switched the burger to a grilled chicken breast, only ate half and gave myself a fixed portion of fries) I was expecting the sodium to push the scale number up. Didn’t do as much Ring Fit this morning since I got up a little late, but we’ve been out for a long walk and will spend most of today outside given the nice cool weather and clean air!
10/10 - 149.2 - I am definitely noticing a difference in how my body feels when I exercise after a poor night’s sleep vs a good one. Woke up at 3 AM and couldn’t fall back asleep - finally got out of bed at 5:30. Dragged myself through Ring Fit but it didn’t feel energizing like it usually does. Hopefully the coffee will help since I’ve got a bunch of things to do around the house this morning, then going to an outdoor wine tasting that I’m SUPER excited about.
10/11 148.2 - Hello, mini-whoosh! Not sure where that come from, since yesterday was my first real “maintenance” day since I started working to lose weight and tone up. The wine tasting was amazing - socially distanced, outside with a beautiful sunset, and got to spend a few hours kid-free with friends. I tracked the snacks we had for dinner and included the wine - certainly higher than my usual calorie count for the day but nothing that would undo all the progress I’ve made.
10/12 - 148.4 - Hoping to end strong tomorrow. Really pleased with how this challenge went and I’m looking forward to the next one. I need to get to sleep earlier though; now I have to get up at 5:30 or so going to bed at 11:30-midnight is just not working.
10/13 - 148.0 - Just made goal - 15 lbs lost! Continuing to exercise each day is really making a difference - I think I see more definition in my arms and legs, though it could just be my imagination. I’m going to start taking hip and waist measurements at the end of each challenge to see if I can make some non-scale gains there too. Ready for the next round!
Total round loss: 2.4 lbs8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 189 Looking forward to conquering the 180s
10/05 188.6 Committed to going into the New Year with renewed health - 10 days at a time
10/06 188.3 Balancing spiritual, mental, physical. Realization: Food plays an integral role for each
10/07 187.l Eating all allotted calories this round, continuing consistent daily deficit...life is good
10/08 187 Upper body workout only due to temporary injury. My lifestyle survives any challenge. Bring it!
10/09 188 Missing Roadwork....stretches/appropriate weights & sauna. Food/calories on point. Staying dedicated
10/10 189 OK... warrior time, mentally. Continuing to trust the process and the science. I will continue to maintain my daily exercise (with accommodation for temporary injury), eat all my calories up to my daily deficit, and remain resolute in my goals. "You are what you repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a daily habit".
10/11 187 Confirmation that when your scale shows a gain....stay strong and maintain the deficit. The science wins out. For the last four months I've never eaten over my deficit. I used to eat less than my suggested deficit which, I discovered, would create long plateaus as my body metabolism would slow down to compensate for the very low calories. I adjusted to eat right up to my daily caloric deficit and it is currently working. I constantly reflect/review and will change if the plan is not working. I'm loving how I eat and I'm never hungry... patience is required when I get a temporary jolt upward, just my body processing and accepting this way of life. Lovin' my life....enjoy and stay strong!
10/12 186.7 Appreciate this tribe...keeping me accountable today
10/13 188 Late yesterday I took the path less traveled for the first time in four months. I was experiencing failure/frustration for not being able to start my mornings with roadwork. My pain and inability to ambulate without pain lead me to a poor food choice....nuts and lots. I am a lifelong learner and know that my mindset and how I react to challenges is what is critical in my life. My goals will only be met by my actions. Authenticity, for me, is matching my practice with my desires. I prioritize health, joy, and gratitude. Today, I am making good decisions. My poor decision yesterday was a brief action and I will recoup quickly. I am compensating for my inability to physically move with other exercises and I will get through this temporary setback. I am moving ahead and have learned from my actions. My trajectory is clear and anticipating success for the next ten days.7 -
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! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle. Getting back to it slowly.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/03 …..210.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
10/04 …..210.0 ….. The gift of the pumpkin bread from a friend didn’t help, but I’m working it back down. Luckily it was a mini loaf which I shared. All gone!
10/05 …..211.6….. WTH??? A lot of steps yesterday and food seemed balanced. However, dinner at 11:00 pm (busy day) and no TMI probably contributed. I will stay mindful today!
10/06 …..209.4 ….. Wildly all over the place. Not my scale, just my habits and my TMI. Happy to see such a nice Whoosh today!
10/07 …..209.6….. Fluctuation. Yesterday was a pretty good day!
10/08 …..209.8 ….. I’m still going to call this a fluctuation because I had a very good day yesterday. However, no TMI x 2 days so that is probably it. Overall, I am making better choices. Last night I prep cooked for today’s lunch and leftovers for dinner. A very low cal & low carb dish. It should help. I absolutely cannot keep dipping back up into the 210 and higher. I’ve got to take this gift of 209 point whatever and continue a downward trend. I am very proud of myself right now.
10/09 …..209.6 ….. TMI helped finally. I also ate prepped food which was very good but I became severely hungry last night due to the low calorie options. The snacks were not healthy and not in plan or my numbers would have been better. My car broke down last night also. I think it’s the transmission. In the shop today. This is not good. Pray for me that it will be fixable at a reasonable cost!
10/10 …..210.0 ….. I went out for fish fry for the first time in awhile which included hash browns. I will try to watch it very carefully today.
10/11 …..209.2 ….. Practiced a little IF yesterday which seems to have helped. That meant eating my meals later but it also cut out the need for excessive midnight madness snacks. I am doing the happy dance today since my round goal is to lose ANYTHING, even fractions of fractions of a pound and this morning I am down over a whole pound!
10/12 …..208.6 ….. Very happy today but a bit surprised. We shall see what tomorrow brings.
10/13 …..208.6 ….. Thrilled that I ended 2.8 lbs down. I haven’t done that in awhile! I traveled today so I suspect that I will not start the next round out in a very good position, but I will stay focused and confident and repair any damage asap. Positive attitude! Good round everyone! Thanks for all the inspirations and ideas.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/10 125.3kg
Hubby and kids have left town for a few days. I'm planning on catching up on sleep, work and housework.
5/10 125.5kg
I'm maintaining trust in the process. Last month I had 10 days of slow increase, then a big drop. Today is day 5.
6/10 124.8kg
Whoosh. A bit earlier and less than I expected, but if it doesn't go as high, I can't be surprised that it doesn't go as low. Reuniting with my family tomorrow. It has been a lovely few days by myself.
7/10 124.3kg
Another big drop. This gets me much closer to where I would be without the bumps. Gone on holidays, so no weighing for a few days, but I will keep on checking in.
8/10 DNW
I'm busy keeping up with the kids. They are always going. I will need a holiday from my holiday at this rate.
9/10 DNW
Hiked to the beach, then along to an interesting rock called Camel Rock. All up, it took about 90 minutes, but with the kids, there was a lot of stopping and starting. I have blisters now though.
10/10 DNW
Last day of my holidays. When the cabins booked were at opposite ends of the park (and a hill) getting plenty of steps in has been default.
11/10 DNW
Spent a good portion of the day in the car, and then had a long nap. Didn't meet my step goal today.
12/10 125.0kg
Higher, likely because of my travelling and eating out. I know I was still careful with choices, but I did have more carbs and more salt than when at home. It should settle out now that I am back in routine.
13/10 124.2kg
Getting back into the swing of things. Didn't meet my goal for the round, but it was pretty close, and I am happy with what I did, especially with the travelling.
Loss Round 128: 0.9kg
