Goal weight for this round: Maintaining 116/117 or dropping a little bit

Previous days

9/29 117.2 pre-workout 116.4 post workout. Started the morning with a 4 mile run. It felt pretty decent except for a side stich almost half way through it but I just walked for a bit and then slowly jogged until I could run a bit faster again. Starting to look into cold weather gear for running because my goal is to run through winter. Slept well for the first time in a while last night. I’m not completely sure why I slept so well but I’m hoping it continues 😊.
9/30 117.4 pre-workout 116.4 post workout- Today was a solid day all around. I ran a little under 3 miles this morning and my food has been on point all day. I even resisted Chipotle when my husband decided he wanted that and I continued to cook the drumsticks I took out of the freezer for dinner. I had three drumsticks and dipped in a combo of bbq and buffalo sauce (~1 tbs total), roasted cauliflower sprinkled with this new powdered cheese seasoning from Trader Joe’s (so yummy!), and 300g of cantaloupe for dessert. Breakfast and lunch was also yummy while being healthy too!

10/1 Did not post. Scale was weird and read 115 prior to my workout and then it read 116 after my workout.
10/2 Did not weigh today. Walked the nearby lake and hit the farmer’s market with my friend. Walked a total of 6ish miles total this morning. Food has been good and energy is improving as I continue to eat at maintenance and work on building strength/muscle.
Non scale victory: I made soup and had left over chicken for lunch today with a slice of bakery toast. I got full pretty quickly and didn’t feel the need to finish the soup. I think eating the chicken before everything helped a bit with satiety. Have a good weekend all!

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!

9/30 206.4 Nice long walk in a local park yesterday

10/1 205.4 More sailing yesterday, more weight gone. Maybe it's that I'm away from the fridge. I'm at the same weight I was at the end of June, so reality check. 205.2 -214 range over the summer. At least I'm down from 230 in April, and that 278 several years ago! Trying these weight loss challenges have kept my focus on eating healthy foods in limited portions. So keeping it up. Thanks for participating you all.

@_JeffreyD_Yep, agree regarding fb & Instagram...MFP is a far better platform. Reddit's loseit is also good

9/29 / 206 / I was expecting a drop, but not this big of one! I had a big lunch and went to bed early - ate slightly less calories than normal. Almost thinking it's just a reflection of me having less in my body right before weigh-in time. My round goal weight may be way too high but I'll see where things are at tomorrow.
9/30 / 206.4 / Played 9 holes of golf yesterday and walked the course rather than riding. Took my dog for a short walk as well. Losses the few days before were substantial so not surprised by this small bump. Today my husband, mom and I are going for a one night getaway to Banff. I am planning two days at maintenance calories - I was supposed to be in a two week maintenance break right now but decided for various reasons not to stick it out the whole time. However, decided to cut myself a few planned days at maintenance while I enjoy some holidays.

That area is soooo pretty!!!! My husband and I took a trip to Jasper 5ish years ago. Such an amazing place!!

I have very fond memories of Banff, DD & her BF worked there for a year during her year out there after graduating. We flew out to have a fortnight holiday with them, stayed in The Ptarmigan, did all the touristy bits; gondola to top of Sulphur Mountain, Johnson Canyon, Alabaster glacier, the hot springs, hiked up Lake Louise to Tree House & snow line, canoed on a lake, picniced at Canataloop Lakes, celebrated Canada Day whilst there. Oh, brings it all back!! Loved it there!!
You enjoy!! xx

That sounds like a fantastic time! We loved our time there, we did a three day hike along Jasper's Skyline Trail and it was just jaw-droppingly beautiful the entire 28 miles of it. We also rented a rowboat on Pyramid lake one day and just stared at the beautiful mountains for a while. We did a lot of drives as well to see the various lakes like Maligne and others. I remember swimming at one of their glacier lakes too! We stayed at the Tonquin Inn on the main street. I loved the scenic halfish mile or so walk I would take each morning to get us breakfast at one of their cute bakeries/cafes. I would love to go back someday. Thanks for that trip down memory lane

This was at "The Notch"

Day/Weight/Comment

9/29 - 145 - My husband starts his cancer maintenance treatments today. It's only 3 weekly treatments compared to the 6 week course he took over the summer, so I'm hoping I can keep my stress to a minimum and stay on track.
9/30 - 144.5 - I'm home from work today to keep an eye on my husband. He requested grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch which wasn't too bad for my diet. I'm just trying to keep away from the Halloween candy we have stashed in the cupboard.
10/1 - 144 - It's been 4 months since I've been at this weight. I'm sure it will bounce, but this will help my trend weight.
10/2 - 144.5- I got a little off track today with eating, although I got in plenty of exercise. I'll see how my weight reacts over the next few days.

I was after an elusive 85 lbs loss 😂 but 83 will do me fine. (Now 84 😁)
• In Maintenance for over 2 years.
• Smart BMI - optimal weight.
• Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range

Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily. People are still dying out there………
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
October focus:

maintain weight < 150 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
Aims:

2021 Focus:

Maintain weight < 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 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
That's a WIN in my book!
2021
Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
(One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

@musicsax @_JeffreyD_ @playhardkf2017 Thanks for sharing ... love to hear about everyone's trips! Feel very lucky to live only an hour away from such a beautiful part of the world! One of the best parts about losing weight is having more energy and stamina to get out and enjoy the mountains.

4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3

I 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?!

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.

10/3 153.0 (trend 153.2) I think this is going to be one of those bumpy rounds, time to stop staring at numbers and just trust the process.

]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.

Thank you @quiltingjaine
May 10, 2021:183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)

Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk/Free-Weights most days. IF, no sugar. Focus on getting enough vegetables.

Next short-term goal:
162....161....160............159.x

SW (9/28): 162.7

09/29: 162.0
09/30: 161.8
10/01: 161.7
10/02: 161.7 - NSV Alert!

I'm amazed every day the little things that feel so much better after losing almost 25 pounds from my heaviest. Yesterday, I walked back and forth from my workshop to my house so many times because I drank so much water and no bathroom in my workshop. Every time I had to step from the ground to the porch with no step (my husband just poured a new cement step a few days ago), I could lift up so easily not carrying that extra 25 pounds. I can't wait to see what I feel like as I lose the next 25 pounds. Yay!

10/03: 161.6 - Getting there little by little.

If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!
There is no going back! NOT THIS TIME!

Round 164 goals: work out at least 30 mins every day, drink 2 litres water daily, fast 16 hours a day, no alcohol

Day/Weight/Comment:

9/29 – 229.4 – Had a salty dinner but stayed under my calorie goal and worked out for 30 minutes. No alcohol.

9/30 – 227.6 – Wasn’t expecting this drop, but I’m not complaining! Did pretty well yesterday, stayed under my calorie goal and worked out for 30 mins. No alcohol.

10/1 – 228 – I went wayyy over my calorie goal yesterday and I didn’t exercise. No alcohol. I will try to have an extra healthy day today to make up for it.

10/3 – 228.4 - Weigh in after night out for 3 year anniversary – Well, my food choices at dinner last night were actually ok but I ruined it with too much wine! Another night out tonight unless the weather doesn’t get any better in which case I’ll stay in and eat healthy.

DH made white chicken enchiladas last night for dinner — yummy, but high cals and I didn’t plan ahead too well. Leftovers tonight, but I’ll have a light lunch, and a good walk with the pup before the afternoon rain arrives. Enjoy your Saturday!

10/03 — 180.8 (181.3) - 1112
We skipped the enchiladas last night in favor of rotisserie chicken, so the high-fat cheesy things are on the menu for tonight. Planning for them! Rory pup and I had a lovely walk along the greenway yesterday. Hoping for another when the rain stops. He’s a great motivator—lots of energy to dissipate! Happy Sunday, all!

9/30 - 239.9 A back tooth decided to fracture yesterday afternoon. Soft foods til I can get a dentist to deal with it. That's one way to force myself to stay on a diet!
10/1 - 238.6. Root canal yesterday, can't get the crown done until 10/28. I'll be skin and bones by then. Well, at least I'll be less blubbery by then anyway.
10/2
10/3 - 239.0 My dad's 82nd BD yesterday. We went to an outdoor party for him and I didn't eat particularly well. Fried chicken, pasta salad, and birthday cake were the worst of my offenses, but in limited quantities (With this darned tooth I have to eat small bites and chew on one side, etc.) I figured taking it easy the rest of the day would offset, but apparently not. What the heck, this may be the last time dad is able to celebrate, I'll accept the calories and move on.
