07/11 196.2 Nice start but I wish it the final for yesterday.
7/12 196.2 What happens to your body when your sleep deprived? My last good night’s sleep was Thursday night
7/13 DNW Running out the house this morning.
7/14 197.5 Expected uptick due to Uno’s frozen pizza. I cannot lie. It was really good.

8 -
183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)
Round 156 Goals: 80oz water; row 30 mins, most days; free-weights; eat vegetables/fruit; IF most days; no sugar; Calorie/Carb cycle between 1000 to 2000 calories each day with an average between 1200 - 1500.
Previous days' posts:7/11 - 171.7 I'm not surprised at finally dropping to 171.X, it's been a long-time coming after bouncing around 172 to 174 for a while. This gives me hope that my wanting to hit the 160's this round may be possible but any loss will be a good loss.
7/12 - 171.7 Very glad to see that 171.x stuck around for 2 days!
7/13 - 171.5
7/14 - 171.1 You know how after so many weeks sticking with your plan and you're losing weight and you feel mentally and physically strong, and you say to yourself, this is it, I'm going to do it this time, and ever so slowly, you revert back to old habits and before you know it you're back up and playing catchup (and pissed at yourself, even though you try telling yourself it's okay, it's a journey, it's a lifestyle).
I'm at that really good place AGAIN - feeling strong mentally and physically - and I'm trying to keep in mind what derailed me in the past and keep focused. I just don't want to go through that song and dance anymore. I think what might be the difference this time is that I'm having health problems directly related to my weight gain and unhealthy habits. The other reason I might can do it this time is I am just so damn tired of it, I want to feel light on my feet when I hike, kayak, bike, etc., and I want to show myself I can do it.
And lastly, it's this forum and all of you. In the past, I would plan out on a calendar 3lbs X how many ever weeks, actually thinking I could or should lose 3lbs a week (setting myself up for failure). I also used to think one or two days of eating over my calorie limit was a failure and a reason to binge for weeks before getting back on it. My more realistic outlook and not jumping ship over a few extra calories is a direct result of all of you! I've learned so much and have been so inspired by all your daily posts and progress with weight loss, other goals, NSV's and your perseverance and positive attitudes. Thank you!
I will succeed and X months from now (or even if a year from now) I will be a healthier and happier me! Thanks for listening to my ramblings and letting me air them out here!

7/17 - 171.5 A direct result of too many chips and salsa but they were part of my higher calorie day and so good! I think I was a bit overzealous with my goal of hitting 169.9 this round but I think I can safely say I will next round - can't wait!!
7/18 - 170.6
7/19 - 170.4
7/20 - Goal: 169.9
170.0 My scale flittered around for a split second on 169.9 but landed on 170.0. I'm actually glad because I wouldn't want to start the next round there because most likely I would bounce back up to 170.x for a few days anyway (oh, the mind games we play with just a tenth of a pound). Very happy where I've ended up this round. Look forward to reading everyone's accomplishments in the next round!

Sat. nights seem to be craving/over eating time for me. Oh well. I just finished reading Burn: New Research Blows the Lid Off How We Really Burn Calories, Lose Weight, and Stay Healthy by Herman Pontzer, PhD. Pontzer is a Associate Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University, Associate Research Professor of Global Health at the Duke Global Health Institute, and an internationally recognized researcher in human energetics (basically how we burn calories). I found it fascinating. (Full disclosure — my background is in cultural anthropology, so I lean that way!) Burn is not a “how to lose weight” book, but the science he discusses is certainly applicable to our mutual quests here. Some reviews complain that there’s “too much science,” and there is quite a bit of chemistry and physiology in one or two chapters, but Pontzer explains things clearly, and the scientific grounding is exactly what appeals to me. Anyway, I thought I’d mention it in case anyone might be interested. If you listen to podcasts you can also find quite a few interviews with Pontzer that boil down much of the info.
7/12 - 189 - 1625
Fresh peaches — yum! I made a peach galette yesterday, and plan to have a piece for lunch. 😁 The calories aren’t bad if not added onto a regular meal day. And the peaches are so good! I split a 25# Peach Truck box with a friend, so may need to freeze a few to keep them from going bad. Did I mention how good they are?
7/13 - 189 - 1683
Rainy days. At least the flowers and trees are getting a good watering!
7/14 - 189 - 1691
Well, I’m nothing if not consistent so far this round! I can’t seem to cut my calories back to where I want them/need them. Maybe I should try for smaller reductions each round until I’m down to ~1450. So I’ll aim for 1600 the rest of this round. Not so daunting.
7/15 - 188.4 - 1841
Weird. Calories up, weight down. Ok by me!
7/16 - 188.6 - 2014
Ooops. Darn food! Doing better today.
7/17 - 189 - 1827
Not doing so well with the calories. Two words — peach cobbler. Plus less activity as it’s been raining pretty steadily for several days. Not right now, though, so I’m off for a walk. Enjoy your Saturday!
7/18 - 188.4- 1873
Ate a lot, but I worked 3+ hours in the garden, digging and replanting a few plants, weeding (big job after all the rain,), mulching…. More today before the heat returns. With all the terrible heat and floods and fires these days, I hope you’re all safe and whole.
7/19 - 188.4 - 1607
Better on calories. It’s a gorgeous day, so I’m off to walk on the river greenway. Can’t believe we’re at the end of this round!

Day/Weight/Comment
7/11--212.5 Went out for a hike yesterday and the puppy did great. Then hubby and I went out for lunch yesterday at a hamburger place we hadn't been to in a long time, and let's just say that my body isn't used to all that heavy food any more, but this morning I am feeling much better. Trainer day today.
7/12--212.0 High carb day yesterday and sore from yesterday's workout, so expect an uptick tomorrow. Will be taking it easy today, just a couple of walks with the dog.
7/13--213.1 There is the uptick I expected.
7/14--212.0 There goes the water weight from yesterday. Took the dog out for a long walk yesterday evening and just let the dog sniff most of the walk, it was so relaxing.
7/15--212.3 High carb day yesterday. Went to trainer this morning and had another tough workout.
7/16--212.7 Normal upswing from yesterday's workout and high carb day from 2 days ago. Going out to dinner tonight with my husband for the 1st time in about 1 1/2 years. We are going to one of our favorite restaurants that we had regularly gotten takeout from during the shutdown, but it is so much nicer to actually go out and eat, we can't wait.
7/17--212.9 Had a great dinner last night, it was so nice to go out. Going out for a trail walk with my dog walking group today and then going to work on renovating the laundry room.
7/18--212.0 There goes the water weight from the last couple of days. Went to see trainer today.
7/19--211.6
7/20--211.2 Lots of ups and downs in this round, but an overall loss for the round.

7/19 DNW Still not doing too well. Been keeping up with my minimum for water... Too much food & restaurants lately. Brother's have been here from out of town for the last couple weeks. I don't want to weigh in tomorrow as it will likely be the most I've ever weighed in my entire life... but I will do it. I'm tired of using stress as the excuse. (My Dad in he hospital, again, at 1am this morning. 3rd time to be rushed to the ER in the last few weeks. It had been less than 1 week since he was last discharged from the hospital).

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/10 …..197.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/11 …..197.6 ….. Same weight as yesterday. I was thrilled to get to 197 point anything but now it is hanging on too long and even fluctuating in a not so good way some days. Time to make some more real and lasting progress this round. Good luck everyone!
07/12 …..195.8 ….. The scale finally budged (and in the right direction!). Sometimes I forget that it takes it few days to see changes (both good and bad). Yesterday was a good day although water and movement was a bit insufficient. Meals were on target. I am going to run with the ball today and remember that every day matters. I have a lot of travel and social engagements that often derail me (most of us do!) I’ve got to allow these days that will be spent at or near home count!
07/13 …..195.2 ….. I ate very very late last night so I am only too happy to still see progress on the scale. The calories weren’t bad but the sodium was probably through the roof. Pushing water today!
07/14 …..196.0 ….. Up a bit from sodium for the last two nights. I’ve got to start choosing something that isn’t filled with salt when I get hungry. My weakness is sweets though and I’ve been avoiding that successfully. However, today is a short 25 mile road trip out of town to take my son and his new friend to the Dairy Queen. I will have lunch with them but I will try to choose wisely to allow for a bit of ice cream. I will also try to get in some yard walking and stair climbing in the house today. Workers will be here this afternoon so I can’t go far. Water…water…water. I am still down from the start of round and my trending weight continues to go down. I’ve got to get that BMI down though. I am still at over 32. Obese. A lot to work on during this long journey, but I’m up for the challenge.
07/15 …..196.8 ….. Drats! Dairy Queen is bad, Very Very Bad. I checked the nutritional labels last night (after the trip, why oh why not before?). Did you know that a medium turtle pecan Blizzard has 900 Calories???? OMGosh! So I had one single burger and the blizzard. The rest of the day was great. Over 10,000 steps. A short walk too. My calories in were still less than my calories burned but still a gain. I don’t always understand that. I will say no TMI x2 now and I know that water retention is always a contender too. We shall see what tomorrow brings. Today will be a redemption day. The good news, my trending weight is still going down.
07/16 …..195.6 ….. Goodbye Sodium and water retention. I expected this whoosh! I had a very low calorie day yesterday while staying thoughtful to carbs. It payed off.
07/17 …..195.4 ….. I bent down (without thought) to tighten my sandal straps yesterday. When I was done I realized I had bent in a fluid motion, no effort, no strain. No hefty breathing when done. No feeling like my head was going to explode. No belly got in the way. Big belly is still here but it must be smaller. I need to start measuring again (I was faithful with it before Covid). Wow, I actually fixed my straps like a normal healthy person! If that is not motivation, I don’t know what is! Today will be a good day!
07/18 …..194.8 ….. Yesterday I logged my food for the first time since before Covid. I had been keeping track in my head but that is not always accurate. Best to have the real and complete stats! I had to change my macros around and may have to play with them a bit to get them right, but I feel like it’s a brave move I was ready for again. It’s like looking in a mirror when you follow your daily intake and macros. I am finally ready for it. My biggest fear is that I don’t always make the healthiest choices even if I am within my goals. I need to take that head-on!
07/19 …..194.0 ….. This may be artificially low due to extra low calorie yesterday. I ate so late I just couldn’t fit in all the food I’d planned for the day before bed. I scrubbed down the outside of my house yesterday which burned a lot of calories. Also some gardening and general yard work. I nice little hike yesterday too. Low cal minus Extra burn equals a loss but will it last? Almost to the end of the round. Where did the time go? Summer is going by too fast!
07/20 …..194.4 ….. Absolutely no reason for the 0.4 gain overnight. Calories were all in the green. Carbs were also below goal. No super high-sodium foods. So I typed my weight in stable black instead of fuchsia or blue. I am down 3.2 pounds this round so I am very happy overall. It is wonderful seeing all the great progress by so many each round. See you in the next one!

Fingers crossed it falls off as quickly as it appeared. Monthly average wts is 159.1 which is too close to 160. I can feel I have a little more wt on my midsection & I don’t like how it feels. Kept calories low today, but fiber went way too high. Fat went down. Such a juggling game - difficult to figure it all out sometimes.
21/07/19 72!!! 158.4
Feeling slimmer! Calories even lower today. Kept fruit at 5-6 servings, so fiber was great at 23!!Yay
Protein perfect! Sat fat low! Sodium great! It’s all coming together again!
Monthly average:159
Most importantly: my appetite is back to being a non-issue ❤️
21/07/20 159. On to Round 157!! Freggies are helping. Hunger had decreased. More optimistic than I’ve been that I’ll get back to 157.3. Tightening down in my daily calories.
Round 157:
Round 156: 158.8 ➡️159
Round 155: 158.6 ➡️159
Round 154: 158.5 ➡️158.8
Goal for Rounds 157 & 158 (next 2 rounds): get back to 157’s.

12: 206.9 🥚It's been challenging for me to keep any kind of healthy routine with the kids home from school. Today is my day 1 to turn this around before any more time passes. My weight is up, but taking into consideration that I'm in my ovulation week this will likely drop quickly by the end of the round.
13: 204.6 🥚 Heading out the door for day 2 at the gym. Really happy with my how yesterday went with elliptical, IF, supplements, and 88oz of water. Could've done better on carbs, but had the meal planned/purchased before I decided to get back on track.
14: 204.9 🥚 Small uptick is almost certainly from water retention. My muscles are very sore today from two consecutive days at the gym after taking a few weeks off. I also did a full body facia blasting session last night. Today is a rest day from the gym and blasting.
15: 204.9 🥚 Still sticking to my healthy routine. By Sunday, I should see I significant drop.
16: 205.6 🥚 Rolled my left ankle pretty badly yesterday. It's bruised and swollen, but I can walk almost normally. Lots of ice, arnica, and ibuprofen. No gym for at least a couple of days. Had a few drinks with friends last night and a little bit of bar food. Not even worried about the gain. It'll be gone soon. Had a fun night, and that's the important part to me.
17: DNW 🥚 Got stung by something last night while sitting at a friend's house. Not positive what it was, but I had a pretty significant reaction within a couple minutes. Most of my forearm was red with a big welt. Then I started to feel really weird, thought I may have a sudden fever because I had cold sweats, my heart rate was 121 (which I didn't know until checking Fitbit this morning), told my friend that something was wrong and that I needed to get inside to the couch. Apparently, after that I stood up, took a couple of steps up onto her front stoop, and stumbled into the front doorway, hitting my head and scraping my knee as I tried to catch myself from completely falling down. She said I kind of crumpled into a sitting position on the stoop and was briefly responsive but then completely fainted. I remember coming to and asking what just happened. She called 911 and had someone come check on me, but thankfully I was feeling much better even in the few minutes it took them to get there. I later ended up having hives on both wrists and my hands were very itchy until I iced them. I've never fainted in my life and have never had a systemic reaction to any type of insect sting or bite, so I'm hoping to see a doctor on Monday for some follow up. Taking it easy and tracking the continual growth of the welt on my forearm today while I get lots of rest, benadryl, and ice.
18: 208.0 So much for a significant drop by today. It's been a rough couple of days. Between inflammation from my rolled ankle and probably the sting, laying in bed unable to get up and move because of rolled ankle, and not eating well for a couple days I guess I'm not surprised by the gain. I'm feeling pretty down from all this, but I'm hoping I'll be mobile again tomorrow or Tuesday.
19: 206.7 Got in to see the on-call Dr at the local clinic this morning, picked up a pack of EpiPens and got scheduled for allergy testing. They said they have to wait at least 6 weeks to see me to make sure that whatever I reacted to is completely out of my system. I had no idea it could take that long! Thank you @tiabirdie56 , @fmfdfa2020 , @chublet25 , & @quiltingjaine for the info and kind words. I really appreciate the support. Sorry if I missed anyone.
20: 206.7 Didn't make my goal, but at least I didn't gain. 🤷🏽
