Day, Weight, Comment
9/29 - 144.8
9/30 - 144.7 - Another low-calorie day being at work. I ended up not being very hungry at all after lunch so much so I skipped my protein shake afternoon snack (win!). Dinner of spaghetti also filled me up on a much smaller portion. I have leftovers of yesterday's lunch though I may substitute something else for the eggs today, just not sure what yet. I have some sausage I'm going to make up with bell peppers I could use, I think. Finished 90 oz water, fasted until noon giving me abouuuuut 17 hours (I didn't pay attention to exactly when I finished dinner Tuesday night or last night so approximate times will have to work). Aiming for a minimum of 16 hour fasting, though will be a tad more challenging with a workout and being home near the kitchen.

Previous Day's Comments

9/29 - Not bad for an early weigh in. Don't expect it to stay so low, yesterday was a super low calorie day. I was banking calories from early in the day for our pizza night (we hadn't been to this place in months, since before the kid's summer break). But we ate late enough I decided only to have a couple slices so I didn't give myself heartburn going to bed so early for today's 330 wakeup. According to Fitbit, I was under my 500 cal deficit by 427 cals, wowza. I have myself some scrambled eggs with spinach, roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, and a couple mandarin oranges for lunch and a protein shake as a snack if I need it to hold me over for dinner. Unsure of dinner yet. Focusing on water for today.

Heck yeah I’m in!

Fourth round for me! I can do anything for 10 days!

Goals- Lose as much weight as I can! Keep to 80 net carbs/day; Pelo 2-3x/week; strength training 2-3x/week; 11,500 steps/day

MFP SW: 237.6
Round 164 SW: 211.8

9/29: 212.0 Had a great day yesterday- hit my steps, got a Pelo ride in, and finished the day at 52 net carbs. So all things considered, this tiny uptick this morning is not unexpected because it’s absolutely the monthly hormonal shift. One foot in front of the other! It’ll pass soon.
9/30: 211.8 Had a great day yesterday, especially considering I was unsure of what dinner would look like. Wound up having a salad! Finished the day with 46 net carbs, a strength training session done, and step goal achieved. On to today!

Age: 62 5’6” 
SW: 261 (6/3/21) 
CW: 223.4 (09/28/21) 
UGW: 175
End of 10 day challenge goal: 223

Drink a minimum of 64 oz water a day
 Swim, Circuit, Hike (5x week minimum)
 Seven days of maintenance to begin this challenge

Challenge 156: 245.4 (-1.8) - Challenge 157: 242 (-3.4) - Challenge 158: 240 (-2.0) - Challenge 159: 237 (-3.0) - Challenge 160: 235.6 (-1.4) - Challenge 161: 229.6 (-6.0) - Challenge 162: 227.6 (-2.0) Challenge 163 223.4 (-4.2)

9/29 223.6 (+.2) Today is my first day of maintenance. I’m taking seven days “off” and allowing my body to adjust to where I am before starting on the next phase. I’m going from 1250 calories a day to 1740. It feels strange and uncomfortable already and this is just breakfast. No planned formal exercise today. The art show is going great so far, which is really exciting.
9/30 223.8 (+.4) My art show sold out! I’m thrilled. It was a crazy busy day as you can imagine. I ate dinner late and didn’t get in all my water, so I’m not surprised at a slight bump on the scale. It was my first day in maintenance mode. It was nice to add a little parmesan cheese to my salad and have a slice of toast with peanut butter. Tish asked me if I was going to eat up to my maintenance calorie level or just eat more when I specifically wanted it. My response was the first, to eat up to my maintenance level. As I was eating yesterday, I better understood what she was asking. I did measure and log and had 200 calories left at the end of the day. My answer after one day in is…I will eat until I’m not hungry and keep it below my calorie goals. After limiting my calories, it’s not surprising that I get full even when I have calories left. It was a strange, but good first day.

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.

Female, 5’3”, 60
Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
GW: <200 in 2021 BMI 35.2
UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

R164 & R165: 2500+ mile road trip vacation 10/2-10/17 (no scale)
Goal: No weight gain
Strategy: Walk/hike as much as weather allows; 16 days at restaurants choose healthy and ask for special considerations; drink 64-80 oz water daily; journal daily; limit snacking in car; picnic supplies / ice chest to provide occasional option to restaurants and healthier snacks
🎯Mini Goal: <202 (Repeat until I hit it!)
Exercise Goal for this month: Walk/Hike 100 miles in October!

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
9/29 203.6 Walked 1.3 Miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 2047 cal, 149 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Rain which limited my walk. Teacher introduced a new exercise routine today that we’ll be using for the next 3 months. It was a killer … including 6+ min of slow motion squats with a weight bar. We did these before but not in real real slow 8 count up 8 count down. I’m really sore this morning!
9/30 203.7 Walked 3 Miles, 1574 cal, 126 net carbs, AF. Spent the day shopping & lunch with DD. She signed on with a new firm! And her husband also signed with a new company. So they will both be changing jobs in the next few weeks. DH & I got our Pfizer booster vaccine (3rd shot) before we head out on our road trip (16 days eating at restaurants and different hotel almost every night in 11 towns across 5 states).

9/29 207 Wow, I half expect that drop is due to dehydration, but will take it! Went sailing for the first time with my brother in his hobie cat yesterday-so I didn't do much of the work. And I wasn't guzzling water all day, but lost weight? Maybe I should go sailing more often!

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.

Round 164
Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

9/29: 205.8
Good start to the round. All of the residue of the Chinese Buffet on Sunday has left the building. Yesterday I even had a Brisket sandwich with fries for lunch and pesto spaghetti (reasonable portion) for supper. My spinning class wiped it away. HA!

I am “working” toward the day when today’s weight is on the upper end, after the Chinese Buffett.

9/30: 208.2
I have NO idea what just happened here. Possibly mis-logging the bowl of Pho I had yesterday? It would have to be sodium and TMI.

9/29 - 231.0 Just one of those days that you want to climb back into bed. Yesterday was brutal between our office ordering Cheesecake Factory for lunch and then snacking because I was still hungry, combined with not working out enough... Then this morning I thought I had a good workout until I saw I actually did worse than the last time I did that ride. Weighed in 2 lbs higher than yesterday. Forgot my coffee at home. Fast forward to tomorrow please.
9/30 - 229.5 I'll take it. Still higher than the start of the round, but that's just how weight fluctuates. Set a 20 minute personal record on the Peloton this morning so pretty excited for that. Today I'll also close all 3 rings on my Apple Watch to complete a full month of closing all 3 rings! Honestly I don't know if I want to break this streak because I just enjoy pushing myself harder. We'll see if I take a day off...

09/29 -184.0 was a bit over with eating. Did a strength training class. I increased my cycling time this week and I usually gain a few pounds. So far my weight is steady. But yesterday I wasn’t organized with food… hmmm…. I’ll try to go back on track tomorrow.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/28 …..188.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/29 …..185.6 ….. Finally a TMI on day 5. A huge drop on the scale and a full 1% down on the body fat. I’ve really got to start adding fiber, even if it’s in the form of benefiber. A very light dinner and some good snack choices last night really helped too. I am feeling hopeful after this drop. Good luck to everyone this round.

09/30 …..186.2 ….. I think this is a normal physical adjustment to the nearly 3 pound drop yesterday. However, I did have 3 pieces of sugar-free Russell Stovers dark chocolate from a friend that put me over calories by less than 200. Also, not too much movement yesterday. I was staining doors for my reno and that kept me in place most of the day. I’ll work harder at some extra activity. I’m just so tired in the evenings.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29: 164.7 - Yesterday did a Jazzercise workout (cardio and light core) and a 2 mile neighborhood walk. Logged all my food and stayed within my calorie goals (did not eat back exercise calories). I’m trying out a size M workout leggings since my size L was falling down during workouts. I’m clearly in between sizes since I feel like a bit of a sausage in the size M.
9/30: 163.8 - Jazzercise workout in my new size M leggings. Pro - I didn’t have to pull up my pants every 5 minutes. Con - the muffin top. Ate within my calories (ate some of my exercise calories back, but not all) and was heavier on the protein (for me) yesterday. The overnight loss of 0.9 pounds was a nice surprise this morning.
