10/1 - 145.1 - Not bad for being over calories, I'll very much take it! Especially since I thought I'd be seeing 146.x today. It may catch up to me in the next few days (Oktoberfest here in my little German town is this weekend. I've never been to an Oktoberfest before so I'm sure I'll splurge a tad). Just got back from getting coffee with FamWife on this dreary rainy morning. Did a 20 minute yoga session prior to coffee. Need to get in 10 more minutes of a workout today to hit my daily 30 minutes of activity goal. Tad behind on water, but nothing I can't catch up on with some focus. Have some leftover roasted sweet potato chunks to eat up which is what has been filling me up amazingly during my 2 super-low cal days (by low cal I mean between 1200-1300 compared to my normal 1500-1650 range I hang out in). I'll be filling up on that for lunch with protein of some sort. Not sure what yet, thankfully I've got time and that (splurge) chai latte filled me right on up for the morning. Needed a little warm something for this dreary day as a pick-me-up and chai or apple cider are my preferred fall flavors (all year round, too). Debating between Oktoberfest this evening or tomorrow (supposed to rain again tonight and all day tomorrow so it's a play it by "ear" (weather). Either way, that leaves dinner up in the air so need to behave the remainder of the day and bank some calories just in case.

Previous Day's Comments9/29 - 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.
9/30 - 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.

@_JeffreyD_ I absolutely agree with you about FB. I got rid of it in 2014. As soon as I figured out how to get photos of my Grands off of there I shut it down. But, don't be deceived about MFP. I've been on here since 2009 and it has changed so much. In some respects, it has become like a baby FB! Adding that this is my opinion, but travel around the community links sometimes.
I still have facebook to keep up with my friends (good ol' military life having friends literally all over the world) but I hate some of the madness that goes with it. Haven't really been around MFP much except this thread and it is BY FAR my favorite little place to be. I find myself checking throughout the day just to see posts that have popped up since I last was on to give me a little happy boost and make sure all my wonderful friends are doing alright12 -

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.
10/01 …..187.0 ….. Dammit! Binge last night due to cravings. I will try to make today count for something!

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!
10/1: 212.4 Had a weird day yesterday. I was busy all day, literally from the time I got up to the time I went to bed, I was going nonstop. That led to undereating slightly, less water than usual, and not hitting my step goal. It is what it is though. Still stayed within my carb goal- 66 for the day. Today will be less busy and I’ve got half my food already planned out. Going camping this weekend, and I’ve learned my best method when camping is to preplan my meals, so I’m sure I’ll be fine with food. For now, I’ll continue riding out this hormonal weight shift.

I read somewhere that if you took the average NFL football game (which is scheduled for 60 minutes) and count only the time actually playing while not counting the time in huddles, lining up, between plays, etc. then the actual game time would only be 7 minutes long.
It occurred to me that if I approached intermittent fasting this way, I can count only the time I am chewing and swallowing throughout the day. So in effect I am probably doing 23:1 IF. I am pretty good at this!10 -

Round 164 (96th for me) . I still need this to help keep me on track, we go away again for a long weekend during this round so lets see how I do this time !!
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to stay on track – Friday we are off for another elongated weekend away in our touring caravan, up to North East Yorkshire this time. Again for the major part I will be responsible for both choosing & providing food, a loss will be welcome – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” 2 months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic: Covid is still around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, always consider others.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3I started mfp on 2/20/11 at 160.2 lbs.
My lowest weight on mfp was 140 lbs in 11/2013 and 5/2014.
My highest weight ever: 168+ (and I wasn't even pregnant at that time... ) That was in 12/2016.
Just for the record used to be an athlete a long, long time ago. Used to teach Aerobics and Step Aerobics. Used to LOVE exercise.
Nowadays, I don't exercise at all. Why, oh why not? How can I go from loving exercise and doing tons of exercise to nothing at all?
Going from low blood pressure to being on medication for high blood pressure. What have I done to myself?!

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 6 states).
10/1 204.0 Walked 2.2 + 4 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 1703 cal, 92 net carbs, AF. Made my 100 mile goal for September WHEW! (102.6) No side effects from the booster which was a nice surprise. Fried chicken for lunch & then chicken sausage jambalaya for dinner were not the best choices … where were my veggies yesterday?
10/2 203.7 Walked 3 miles in the rain then bathed the dog since we were already wet! Evening walk 1.3 miles. 1520 cal, 75net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Morning WI before starting our road trip.

Trend goal for round 152.8
**********************************************
9/29 151.8 (trend 153.9) Starting this round with a drop is exciting but I don't think I'm going to change my goal weight, instead I think I'll track my trend weight this round too, to see if I learn anything from it. My trend weight drop last round was 3.2lbs, compared to the 2lbs change in scale weight I had. I spent most of yesterday at my mum's house restoring and refitting some skirting boards that were removed back last winter when her house got flooded. It was good to get it done so she can close that chapter and move on from it. Had a banana for breakfast and then nothing until 7pm as I was busy and didn't feel hungry so I ended up 200 under which might be why there's a drop today. Protein is concerning me, I'm thinking of changing my macros to reduce fat and raise protein, not sure if it'll work for me as I find fat really satiating but I'm worried about losing muscle and I don't want to reduce carbs any further as I get really lethargic when I go below 35%.
9/30 151.6 (trend 153.6) I went shopping for some new walking/trail running shoes yesterday, first time in clothes shops for about 18 months. I didn't find anything suitable so decided to browse for clothes, although I'm not really needing any as stuff I have that's been in storage is starting to fit me again. It was such a different experience to how I remember it in the past, I didn't cringe every time I saw my reflection and even tried on a few things and was surprised to find I'm down a jeans size and can fit medium size 12-14 jumpers without them clinging in all the wrong places! Went for an evening walk with hubby and a couple of drinks, gotta watch out, this is becoming a habit. Calories 100 over, binged a bit on cheese, ham and pickles and not enough veggies.
10/1 153.0 (trend 153.5) Biggest overnight gain that I've had in a while but I'm not surprised. I had cravings all day yesterday and felt really lethargic so didn't get any activity in. I started the day with eggs and a pear rather than my normal banana and rather than making me feel more satisfied it just triggered the munchies monster and nothing I ate would stop me from thinking about food. I wasn't even hungry, just wanted to snack snack snack. I was 200 cals over in the end so obviously not enough to cause a 1.4lb gain, but extra carbs and fibre are having lingering effects I guess. Feeling a bit disappointed with myself and worried that I might be subconsciously self sabotaging as I'm nearly at 30lbs lost and I had told myself when I get there I would start regularly visiting the gym, something I'm dreading. I must make sure I stay busy and stick to the plan today.
10/2 151.4 (trend 153.2) Steps 13,973 Well I decided that the best thing to do was not to wait until I hit 30lbs lost to start going to the gym in case it was leading to self sabotage, so straight after posting yesterday I chucked on my gym clothes and hot footed it down there before I had a chance to over think it and chicken out. First time I've been there in 2.5yrs and it was totally fine, I just walked on the treadmill for an hour at 3.8mph, I don't want to start any complicated fitness routine as my main focus is fat loss right now. Went out in the evening and calories were way over so I'm extra happy with the drop today.
