I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

10/26: 212.2 / I had a fantastic weekend away at some friend’s lake cabin. I can’t believe I am only one pound up from the day we left. Probably due to a couple scenic hikes in beautiful southern Illinois.
I had a sense of renewed dedication this morning to some ongoing goals I have. They have been neglected in recent weeks. I need to make room for some work in those areas. Happy Monday everyone!
10/27: 211.2 / Back to work!
10/28: 209.6 / purging water.
10/29: 211.2
10/30: 209.6 / I am like a puffer fish. Today at the office we are having a fish fry at lunch. I am furnishing the fish, everyone bringing sides. Expect tomorrow’s number to puff up again! 😊

10/30 - DNW - Was in an unexpected rush this morning so I didn't get a chance to weigh in. Broke fast early stopping at a coffee shop but I needed something to get me going. Coffee doesn't give me energy but I've been drinking it so long that I think it acts as a placebo. Almost like a signal to my brain its time to wake up the brain cells and the body whether you like it or not. Having an adults only dinner tonight with the Texas fam. Not yet decided on where we are going, but it'll be good, I'm sure. Ended up going in to work yesterday and had no way to refill my water bottle so I'm very dehydrated this morning. Will definitely be pushing water once I drink this coffee. Fasted 16hrs on the dot, though.

Previous Day's Comments10/24 - DNP
10/25 - Weighed yesterday but didn't have a chance to post. Didn't weigh in this morning because I kept chugging water through the night and I felt it'd be an inaccurate reading. Should be a quiet day with football today. If not, I'll make it a quiet day for myself and let the others go be crazy. Haven't been sleeping in the mornings well. Went to bed around midnight and woke up at 4 (yesterday I went to bed at about 930-10 and woke up at 1:40am). Hopefully tonight is much better
10/26 - Ribs and salty sides - holding on to a lot of water it seems. Got a nice walk in yesterday with the pup. Pouring rain today so no walk for me. Managed 14.5hr fast yesterday, hoping for 18hr today (gets me to 1230). Sleep hasn't been great so took a quick nap after my first meeting and still quite groggy. Rain doesn't help - hello perfect sleeping weather. Should be a quiet simple day.
10/27 - I'm not sure.... I feel way less bloated and heavy so really not sure. Dinner was quite heavy as I tried a new recipe - "Cowboy Stew" and ended up eating later than I'd like because it took so long to cook. Not sure what plans are today but because late dinner, I may have to either pull an OMAD or a 16hr fast. I'll see what the day brings. Ended up putting hardtop back on jeep and it wore me out so no other workout. Not likely to walk today as its spitting rain in 35 degrees out (feels like 27, brrr). I don't handle cold well - I'm the one in a jacket at 70 degrees! Glad I got my garden blanket Sunday and put it up last night - I'd have lost my peppers! Hoping BF will build my "greenhouse supports" onto my raised bed so I can properly secure the blanket. I just pinned it over the cages and wrapped excess around it to get as secure a fit as I could in hopes it'll hold over. This weekend should start to see warmer overnight temps - 50 or so degrees) which will help a lot. I've got so many peppers finally blooming, I don't want to lose them!
10/28 - Had a carb heavy lunch and dinner, but not as bloated as I expected I'd be, though feeling a slight bit of the heaviness that comes after a carby dinner. Heaviness is not as bad as usual, though. Still don't understand why I'm up but feeling/looking less bloated. Oh well. Fasted 16.5hrs yesterday and hoping for 17-18hrs today as that will put me at a late lunch. Shouldn't be too difficult to pull off (: Still rainy and cold here and I'm hating it. I moved to Texas to get warmer weather and yesterday, it was warmer in my hometown in NWIndiana than here! Not fair hahah I'm feeling like a nap may happen today, but that could also be me just waking up and still being groggy. Stayed up last night to watch World Series so my own fault. Looks like its going to be a boring day here, so may do some yoga if I have enough energy once I wake up more. Definitely going to focus on pushing more water, I've been slacking off quite a bit. Still close to goal, but not as intentional about it which is where things have the opportunity to turn ugly and then I'm fighting getting back to goal.
10/29 - I still don't know. I expected to be up because we had curry last night (homemade, but still has plenty of salt). Yesterday was indeed very boring and laid back. BF made me breakfast so ended up only going 14.5hrs. Looks like I'll be driving to San Antonio to pick up a working computer so I'll be able to fast that entire time. At least I'll be able to actually work (yay first of the month reports next week! Okay, maybe not yay, but at least I can do my job again). I had breakfast plans, too, which really sucks. Been waiting since last week for this hahaha And I have a deadline of Nov 1st for a collaboration I want to do with her. Oh well, I may just start it on my own and go from there (:

I lost 16lbs with you all April-October 2020 and I want to keep it off!
Maintenance goal: 135-140
Day/Weight/Comment
10/24 140.4
10/25 141.6 Need more water and could have swapped that 8pm Chipotle burrito for a snack instead.
10/26 141.4 Have a beautiful lunch salad packed today. I'm not sure what to add or not add to keep within maintenance range. I'm guessing it's mostly a protein & fat trade off for me. Time will tell.
10/27 140.8 Up early and feeling good today. Making a pretty lunch salad at home. I hope it turns out well. Some of them don't quite wow me.
10/28 140.6 My salads are yummy but was hard to feel full yesterday and was grazing. It could have been how early I was up too.
10/29 140.4 Had a heavy dinner but ate as early after work as possible.
10/30 139.8 Glad to see under 140 again.

Good morning everybody! It's a beautiful Saturday here in New Orleans, and I am getting ready for a big exciting day with my mom! We're going to walk in the park, then we will eat all the seafood (outside, while socially distancing), and then we'll wander the French quarter. I'm really excited.

10/30 No weigh in today. I won't get to weigh in until the last day, which is pretty nerve wracking actually. Yesterday I ate responsibly - no dessert and only one not-sugary cocktail. I had gumbo, butternut squash salad, and fried brussels sprouts, which, while fried, are better than fried potatoes? That's what I'm telling myself anyway. I got in a couple miles of walking, and I'll do a lot of walking today.

10/24 - 182 - 1802 - 65 min walk
Well, I hit one goal out of 3. Aiming for 2-3 today. Happy Saturday!
10/25 - 183 - 1677 - 45 min walk
Delayed bump, methinks. Also salt. Have a lovely Sunday, all!
10/26 - 182.2 - 1627 - no walk, lots of indoor activity
Chilly morning but clear, so I’m off for a walk in a few minutes. DH made “ravioli lasagna” on Fri — good, but high cal/fat and one 8x8 pan lasts us 3 meals — last one tonight, then I’m going for less dense food for the rest of the week. I have been eating salads for lunch, though, so there’s that. 🙂 Aiming to get my weekly calorie average well below guesstimated TDEE of 1580, assuming sedentary life, and to increase my activity level. I’m thinking of buying a stationary bike — anyone have any recommendations for a decent not-too-pricey bike?
10/27 - 183.4 - 1906
I have to stop surfing news stories and eating my resultant emotions. I’m considering a moratorium on all things internet (other than my daily check in & tracking!) until about mid-November! Anyway, I ate and ate and ate last night. Popcorn. Cinnamon toast. Triscuits & cheese. All after left-over lasagna for dinner. Sigh. So I know some of this bump back up is salt and bulk. But still... I need someone to drop me at a cabin in the woods with rations for 3 meals a day for about 3 weeks to break this cycle. I’m up 53 lbs from my lowest weight 2 years ago, which was actually 10 lower than my original goal. On the plus side (so to speak), I weigh exactly what I weighed a year ago, and 30 lbs less than my heaviest. Part of me is ok with this weight since I’m healthy and active, but the rest of me is ticked off that I let it get away from me again. Ok, no hugs needed, I’m fine, just venting because I know you guys get it. It’s cold and rainy here today so I’m thinking of doing laps inside Menard’s. Have a lovely!

Boing. Zigzag. Whatever. It’s chilly and rainy this morning but supposed to clear up this afternoon and warm up a little, so I’m planning to get out to some trails I haven’t visited in a while over the next couple of weeks. DH bought trick-or-treat candies and kindly bought the ones I don’t like. ❤️ We’re setting a bowl full on the porch for a no-contact Halloween. Kinda sad about that — I enjoy seeing the kids.
10/30 - 182.6 - 1905 😢
I gave in to my urge to snack last night — low-fat no-sugar-added granola + kefir, so not too junkie, but still. I’m off to the store to stock up on nice flavored teas to sub for food in the evening. Happy Friday!

@SModa61 I hope your extraction goes well! My DD#1 had oral surgery hen she was in 9th grade. I was there as she woke up and she asked when they were going to do it. I told her out was over and she couldn’t believe it. She had a pineapple milkshake for lunch and went to school! Prayers for an easy day for you!4

Clearly I am confused about people with teeth extractions! I hope you BOTH are well!2

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.

Round 130
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 146
GW: 140
UGW: 125
GW for this round: 144
Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 128 (3): 150.4 to 148.0 (-2.4 lbs)
Round 129 (4): 148.0 to 146.0 (-2.0 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Lose 2 lbs
- Meal prep breakfast for at least 6 days
- Do core strengthening exercises 5x (every other day)
10/24 - 146.0 - Ok, ready for this round. Last night was Movie Night, which had the double whammy of me not getting in my normal evening walk and the temptation of buttered popcorn. I limited myself to a small amount of popcorn (still had butter on it though - not worth eating otherwise!) and we had a great time. Got off to a slow start this morning with a light workout and then a pancake breakfast - I didn’t blow all my calories for the day but I’m going to have to be careful.
10/25 - 144.8 - Eeeee! Where did that come from? Feeling great this morning - going to do a Halloween scavenger hunt with the kids in a local park today, and I did the grocery shopping yesterday so I can meal prep this afternoon.
10/26 - 145.0 - Tiny bump compared to the big drop from yesterday. Made goat cheese, roasted asparagus and spinach egg muffins this morning which hopefully will last me a few days. It meant I had a little less time for Ring Fit, but I still got it in. A morning without working out would feel strange at this point!
10/27 - 145.4 - Not the direction I want the scale to move, but I will not let it get to me! After seeing antiderivative talk about it on here, I got Just Dance 2020 for the Nintendo Switch last night and had SO MUCH FUN dancing with it this morning. It was a good workout too, and I’m sure it will be an even better one once I learn the moves for my favorite songs.
10/28 - 145.2 - Right direction, at least, if not by much. It’s getting colder here, so I probably won’t attempt any more outside runs in the morning for awhile. I’ll just focus on Ring Fit, Just Dance and I want to get the new Fitness Boxing 2 game when it comes out in December.
10/29 - 144.8 - Glad to be back down below 145 - just hope it sticks this time. My NSV is that when I was walking our dog last night, I realized that the leggings I was wearing were getting pretty loose! I’d already gone down a size in jeans, but now I can go down one in leggings too. I also made some strawberry banana overnight oats which were delicious this morning. Looking forward to getting to eat it the next few days as well.
10/30 - 143.4 - I actually said “wait, what?” out loud when I saw the number on the scale this morning. I know it’s as much of a fluke as a suddenly high weight - but it did put a smile on my face. Likely won’t stick around anyway, since tomorrow is Halloween and we’re doing a backyard party for the kids and the other family in our pod. I’ve got a lot of baking to do today for it!

Round 130 Goal: 282
Day/Weight/Comment
10/24: 284
10/25: 283.4 (-0.6) ⬇️ happy to still be going in right direction! 😊
10/26: 282.6 (-0.8) ⬇️ Slowly, but surely wins the race. 😂.
10/27: 280.6 (-2 lbs) ⬇️ Now this is more like it. 😃 Everything is looking good so far, and I hope it continues that way. Since I've already reached my goal for this round (282 lbs) I've decided not to set another goal, but see where it goes from here.
10/28: 280.4 (-0.2) ⬇️ Still a loss and I'll take it over a gain anytime. I'm getting a new scale today and I hope it shows the same weight or less, then my old scale. There's always a little uneasiness with getting a new one, because you wonder if the old one was giving you the correct weight. I'll know for sure when I weigh in the morning. Keep your fingers 🤞crossed. Lol 😅
10/29: 279.4 (-1) ⬇️ I don't know how it happened, 😚 because I went over my calorie intake for the day. I was so sure I'd gain this morning. I'm really glad for whatever reason I didn't gain. 😊
10/30: 279.4 (0) 😊

Thanks quiltingjaine, I apparently cracked my crowned tooth and that makes it unsalvageable and likely to infect again. Dentist, periodontist and oral surgeon all agreed. I had an absess on my gemlike at the end of August that was the clue. So today, it was pulled, and they did a "bovine" bone graft at the same time to retain structure. In 3 months, I'll get evaluated for an implant. Moral of the story - brush and floss like a madman.
Your daughter sounds amazing. Advil is doing the job for me, but definitely a little "off" post sedation. Oddest part is that I could not get warm for hours after. Feeling pretty good now at the 4 hour mark.

Managed to lose 0.7 kg last round. Now with 2.7 kg to lose. Back to tracking, counting and posting.
OSW 88KG
RSW 62.7 kg
Target this round to lose 0.7kg
10/24 63.4kg.very disappointing but entirely my own fault.
10/25 62.55kg. Doubt it will stay off as we have big weekly braai here every Sunday and the food is just way too good. Aim is to be lower tomorrow than I was Monday last week and I'll OMAD to help
10/26 63.4kg as expected. I need to change my Sunday routine.
10/27 62.75kg...not bad. Gym done and aerobics this evening.
10/28 63kg. Really was expecting a drop today as yesterday was great on calories, carbs and exercise.
10/29 62.85kg not sure why it's not lower as everything is going well. Gym done today and a core fitness class later.
10/30 62.5kg it's down which is great. I just want it to be more down! 😂 Gym done

October focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2020 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 128- Stabilise weight under 150
- 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.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/23 …..206.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
10/24 …..207.8 ….. No lunch. Cereal for dinner. Stupid, I know. Rushed Hurry Food. One whole pound on the scale. Today’s dietary choices not much better but much accomplished otherwise with my projects and dilemmas. Sunday is always very active for me so perhaps I can burn off some of my mistakes. Time to pay the fiddler.
10/25 …..208.2 ….. Hasty choices in a busy world right now. Angry! And I travel tomorrow so I feel like there is no hope in sight! #nevergiveup
10/26 …..208.2….. Balderdash!
10/27 …..210.4 ….. After travel weight. Freaking out here! I am going very low in carb & calorie today and will try to push the water too. I am NOT BUYING any Halloween candy to give away or fill office dishes with (to graze on). I will give away juice boxes for the few trick-or-treaters that I get in this rural area.
10/28 …..209.2 ….. Keeping diligent and trying to move more too. Focus, Focus, Focus!
10/29 …..207.9 ….. Low cal yesterday but carbs thru the roof. Plenty of horrible choices, not gonna lie! But the quantities were small. No breakfast, very healthy low cal/low carb lunch but horrible dinner and dessert. The scale went down because even with bad choices my calories were still pretty low. Striving to do better today but it’s not feeling like it’s going to be a good day.
10/30 …..208.4 ….. Woke up at 4:15 AM starving and I actually warmed leftovers and went back to sleep. Very strange. I couldn't control the tremendous hunger, but it was not a sugar drop episode. I think my dinner may have been too small or low in calorie. My weigh-in this morning was too close to late nite food fest.

10/27 62.75kg...not bad. Gym done and aerobics this evening.
10/28 63kg. Really was expecting a drop today as yesterday was great on calories, carbs and exercise.
10/29 62.85kg not sure why it's not lower as everything is going well. Gym done today and a core fitness class later.
10/30 62.5kg it's down which is great. I just want it to be more down! 😂
10/31 62.5kg. No exercise today. No power either and a tree down after a huge storm last night.
