1/17 - 183.0 played 2hrs of volleyball yesterday and I was fairly good with my food. I definitely got my protein in - which is main macro goal.
1/18 - 183.3 kinda bummed it went up, but I'll keep going.
1/19 - 182.1 yesterday I worked out (I do Linn Lowes plans) and added an additional 15 min on the treadmill at an incline while waiting for my partner to complete their workout.
1/20 - 182.0 stressful and long day of work yesterday, but still managed to get my workout in. Hoping to be a bit better food wise (I definitely stress snacked) today.
1/21 - 181.3 I was a little surprised for this drop, yesterday was a rest day at the gym. I'll take it though. I'm getting closer to getting below 180.
1/22 - 182.1
1/23 - 181.3 Forgot to post my weight yesterday, but hopped on the scale today and was pleasantly surprised that it came back down. Maybe my goal should just be 180 for this round. I've got volleyball and a few gym days ahead so maybe I can drop another pound.
1/24 - 183.1 yesterday was a hard day, we had to put down our family cat. He was almost 17 so we knew it was coming, it was hard to see him so frail and skinny and unable to eat, drink, and walk.

1/17: 145.9 - I didn’t expect this, but it feels good to have the scale moving down. Officially lost 25 pounds since starting this journey Sep 7, 2021. Did my normal workout plus a walk, and ate all the way back to my exercise calories. Good sleep.
1/18: 145.5 - Normal workout, but my eating was a little disjointed as we were out the whole afternoon. Stayed within calories.
1/19: 145.5 - Holding steady. Normal workout plus an extra walk. Good eating.
1/20: 145.9 - Last night had homemade pizza. Although within calories, I felt super full.
1/21: 146.2 - Headed in the wrong direction. Lots of cheeses and carbs the last few days.
1/22: 145.5 - Long neighborhood walk (5.72 mi) was the only exercise I got in. High carb, low protein eating. Still finding it hard to get enough protein throughout the day.
1/23: 145.5 - Holding steady again. 10K walk in the neighborhood and stayed within calories. Good sleep.
1/24: 145.1 - Back to my regular workout + walk yesterday and a little on the lower end of calories.

1/17 205.8 Well poo. Last week I was down and here we go first day of the new round and I’m up. My own fault, too much salt yesterday. Continuing to do my workouts, #17 done. Onward!!
1/18 207 Another bad day of not eating right. I’ve got to get my head back in the game. It felt great to be down lower now to get there again. I have kept on with the workout’s #18 today.
1/19 206.6 Better #19 done
1/20 206.8 Workout #20 today.
1/21 207.2 #21 I have got to stop this snacking. You can always tell by my numbers.😕
1/22 207.2 Workout #22. Snacking again yesterday. I love crackers and did a lot of emotional eating, we had an unexpected death in the family. Husbands cousin who was 60, possibly an aneurysm. Anyway it always makes you think about what you need to do to live better and longer. Husband and I discussed what “healthy” is and quality of life. 😢
1/23 207 workout #23. Need to drink lots of water today and move.
1/24 207.6 workout #24 Well this round has not been good for me.Back to my terrible snacking habits.

Sorry about your loss, I am sure he has had a good home with you - lots of years, that is a very good age for a cat, but I know pets are part of the family and leave a big hole. Sending hugs xx4 -
@lindsaysrat I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. It's so hard to say goodbye to our four-legged family members. My four cats send you purrs and biscuits.3

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.

Goal for this round: Maintain weight while continuing to focus on strength training and running
Previous days1/24 121.6 Hoping to see a drop in the next five days after this part of my cycle passes. I’m also starting a new macro configuration with my diet to see how this changes things. I plan to work my way back down to 115 over the next few months because I’m not the biggest fan of 120/121. My goal is to maintain my muscle mass though because I really like how my muscles are starting to pop in the upper body and parts of my lower body. I just don’t like the slow weight creep that’s been happening. So, as I lean out I know the muscles will start popping even more. The new plan is about 1900ish calories with 40% carbs (to help with the endurance/cardio work I do), 25% protein (120g about 1g per pound of body weight) and 35% fat. So, we shall see how this works, right now I’m burning about 500-900 calories depending on the day’s activities. Ran 5 miles this morning and swam 1,025 yards after work. I was going to do strength tonight, but my husband wanted to swim so we shared a lane instead and swam. I’ll do my strength tomorrow morning and then some sort of cardio afterward. I also signed up for a yoga class tomorrow night because I feel like a kid in a candy store with all these options at our new gym.
1/17 Did not post.
1/18 122.4 My goal for next round is to post every day! Ran 6.2 miles this morning. Last night my husband and I went to play racquet ball at the local court near us. It was so much fun! We also did some research and there’s a gym near us that offers unlimited use of their courts, so we are going to look into joining the gym instead of paying $35 an hour at the club we went to last night. The gym has squash courts, but we’ll just learn to play that instead. I’m very excited because the gym has a couple pools as well, so I might get back into swimming as a cross training activity for myself. I used to swim in high school and loved it. I wasn’t fast by any means but it’s such a good workout for a no impact exercise! Food has been good all day to day and have meatloaf prepped and ready to throw in the oven for tonight. We got Thai last night for dinner so I’m working with post strength training water retention along with Thai food water retention. I feel good regardless, so that’s what’s important, right?
1/19 122.0 I did a 50 minute spin bike ride this morning and did my strength workout on my lunch. Breakfast was toast with chai tea, lunch was cheese, crackers, crunchy chickpeas and some raisins, and dinner will be leftover meat loaf with some roasted potatoes. I have to pick up our CSA tonight before dinner, so it’ll be nice to have an easy dinner ready to go. I think we might try and play squash tonight before we pick up the CSA too. Happy Wednesday!
1/20 121.6 Playing squash was a success last night! It wasn’t pretty to see me play but it was fun and my husband didn’t lose his patience with me lol! So, it was a win win! I ran 6.4 miles this morning and the last three were fast/hard miles. My Garmin watch gave me 40 recovery hours before my next hard workout. So, I’ll do a leisurely spin bike ride tomorrow morning to give my body a break. Food was pretty good yesterday too. Today I had my usual toast for breakfast, lunch will be the last of the meat loaf and dinner will most likely be steak and veggies or something a little easier like chicken tenders if we end up playing squash again tonight.
1/21 Did not post.
1/22 Didn’t weigh this morning. I did a recovery ride yesterday on the spin bike and resting completely today. I’ve had a sugar bug the past couple of days with eating too many caramels (finally gone) and Lindt truffles (almost gone) that are around. Not sure why the spike in sugar cravings though, usually I can look right at them and not be phased. Food has been good today though.
1/23 Forgot to weigh this morning. My husband and I woke up super early and couldn’t fall back to sleep, so we decided to get up and go to the gym to swim some laps. Being in the pool again and swimming with intention felt so good after over a decade of not doing it. Afterward I used the sauna to get rid of some water retention that has been lingering and then we went home and had breakfast (2 eggs with homemade cinnamon raisin walnut toast). Then, we decided to go back to the gym for an 8:30 AM yoga class. The best part of the class was my husband at the end saying he hasn’t sweat like that in a long time and him admitting that yoga really is a workout. HAHA! The class was also lovely in general and I plan on taking it again. We also adventured to HMART after the class and we bought some ingredients to make beef lo mein for dinner tonight. It’s been a solid Sunday so far 😊.

It really is! The fennel gets super sweet and yummy with the butter and because there's so much butter in it, you don't need to add cream to the soup. If I recall correctly, there are only those three ingredients if you use salted butter or you could add salt to your liking. So simple, but oh so good.3 -

My goodness was that soup divine especially sopped up with a hearty bakery bread!
@playhardkf2017 It’s never too late to talk soup! That fennel-tomato sounds fabulous! I love fennel—will have to try it. Thanks!

1/17: 192.8 60net carbs but fell short on steps. I also spent time on my feet decorating cookies yesterday, which I’m sure contributed to the uptick. Come on 180s, stick already!
1/18: 191.2 Happy with this! 60 net carbs and step goal achieved. I’m determined to make the most of this week!
1/19: 190.0 Another drop, yes! 70 net carbs, step goal hit, and Pelo ride done. I can sew a new low just around the corner!
1/20: 189.8 Back to my lowest again. I was hoping today would see a new low, but at least it’s something. 66 net carbs, strength training, and steps done.
1/21: 188.8 Yay new low! Had a pretty good day yesterday. 50 net carbs, steps in, and Pelo ride done.
1/22: 190.0 Boo! I’m sure it was either spending so much time in the kitchen on my feet, hormones, or a combination of both.
1/23: 190.4 Again, spent more time than usual on my feet on the kitchen, but Im sure hormones are playing a part too. 61 net carbs.
1/24- 188.8 Quite shocked by this drop today! My calves were so swollen last night, I was sure that I wouldn’t be down any. 38 net carbs for the day and step goal achieved!

1/18 373.0 – 5768 steps. Got in a walk yesterday and ran errands with mask and shield on and enjoyed being out despite challenges. Dropped dinner off to my Dad at nursing home. I hope he enjoyed it and understands why we cannot come visit him at nursing home.
1/19 373.0 – 5672 steps. Good day and got in a short walk. Came under calories. I always thought with the WW points I was eating too much but I could never know because it was not calories. With MFP and actual calories and macros, I can figure out some things! I attribute that to why I am now losing consistently now. I am eating less and still not feeling deprived. The WW zero-point foods are very deceptive. I always knew it, but I just tried to make it work for me. It may work for some, but it does not work for a person with a binging problem.
1/20 373.0 – 6158 steps. Carb feast on skinny pop popcorn but still under calories. Good exercise also. Had a great salad. I love the salad kits They work for now.
1/21 372.0 – 5442 steps. Two good short walks inside and under calories. I am happy to be on the losing end at the end of each 10 days, but my goal is to lose 3 pounds each challenge while I am in the 300’s. I know as I get closer to 300 it will get tougher. The lowest weight I have been since I have been on this journey since 2004 is 301. For the 1st time in a long time, I can see myself getting under 300 if I don’t lose my focus.
1/22 372.0 – 4322 steps.
1/23 370.8 - 4036 steps. Reached 25 pound milestone!!!
1/24 373.8 – 3800 steps. Yikes! Can’t explain a 3 pound jump. Too much celebrating! A real possibility. We will see tomorrow. I did not drink a lot of water, low steps, no workout 2 days and high sodium. Hmmmm. Not worried. Moving forward. I did end up going over my calories with high calorie and high sodium item so I will just try to drink my water next 2 days and stay under calories and keep it moving. It happens and I am still in the blue & 370s.

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.8 -
I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), complete all 6 programmed strength training sessions during my 4 days off per week

Previous Posts1/17 Had a relatively lazy day. Planned meals for this week and made a grocery list. Did a deadlift, squat, pullup workout this morning and took a walk. I made a Korean soup (doenjang chigae) for dinner and it was really tasty but pretty sodium heavy. Reload week for strength, but the programming never feels that much easier than the normal weeks hah. I bet my legs are sore tomorrow after all of the split squatting I did tonight. I’ve been feeling pretty hungry, so I’ve relaxed my calorie goal a little and am eating back more exercise calories. Protein: 146
1/18 workouts ✅✅✅ super sore today. “Reload” weeks on the programming are always like that. tomato garbanzo beans stew with seitan for dinner. Protein: 144
1/19 still super sore. Did a weighted step up, shoulder press, bent over row workout this morning. Very cold and windy otherwise, so didn’t get out and walk. Strength was programmed as an active recovery day but included a lot of pull-ups and dips. Farro with sautéed mushrooms and spinach and a gochujang sauce. Back to work tomorrow. I got a call back about the surgery job and I’ll need to think about it. I would work Monday-Friday 5:30-2 + occasional on call. Protein a bit on the low side: 113
1/20 work 1/2. Not a bad day in Covid-land. I think I’m going to need to buy new scrubs in small cause my pants are about to fall off.. especially when I’m wearing the PAPR. Kimchi stew with tofu for dinner. Yummy! Protein: 121
1/21 work 2/2. Still had a bad headache today but otherwise feel fine. Idk if I should get a Covid test tomorrow just to be safe or not. Thai-ish soup with seitan for dinner. Protein: 126
1/22 did a snatch and box jump workout and then a push press, kb swing, push-up workout this morning. We cleaned up the vegetable garden since none of the hardy greens stood up against the deep freezes this winter. I forgot that I left some potatoes in the dirt and dug up a ton of those. Otherwise went grocery shopping (I hate running errands on the weekends. Too many people. It really makes me appreciate my work schedule) and made broccoli, pea, edamame fried rice with tempeh for dinner. Protein: 127
1/23 Picked up an extra shift for a big bonus. It was a good day.. I just regret missing a day of lifting. Depending on how the rest of the week goes I might try to make it up. Back to work tomorrow. My husband used the potatoes we dug up to make one of our favorite recipes. It’s like a gochujang potato rosti in a Dutch oven and you bake eggs into it. Extra delicious with fresh garden potatoes.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/17 / 185.4 / Today consisted of work, a walk at lunch, a Peloton ride, some stretching, and a core strength workout. Looking forward to a good round ahead and moving into the low 180's.
1/18 / 184.4 / Another solid Peloton workout done, this time at lunch since it was colder than I wanted it to be for my walk. I am going to take my next FTP test on Thursday morning to see how I've improved. Work is taking a lot of mental energy so I'm thankful for the good habits I've got in place to support me right now.
1/19 / 183.2 / Change of plans on the Peloton FTP test so I ended up doing a training ride today instead. My husband and I are doing the Pelo Fondo event this weekend so I decided to postpone a new FTP until next week.
1/20 / 181.4 / Got out for a short walk at lunch and now I'm waiting for my turn on the Peloton... my husband and I are both obsessed so we have to take turns lol.
1/21 / 183 / So ecstatic the weekend is here! Mostly a rest day today to gear up for the PeloFondo event tomorrow. Hoping to get 100KM done in one day!
1/22 / 185 / Fun day in our house here today as both my husband and I are participating in the PeloFondo event. I rode the bike for over 60KM first thing, and now he's doing his full distance in one go. We have supper out with friends so I'll be finishing my distance around that. Plus, the sun is out so I got a great walk outside with the dog.
1/23 / 185.2 / Mostly a recovery day planned for today, although I will take the pup for a walk. We are watching football and I plan to eat at maintenance for the day.
1/24 / 186 / Got my FTP test done this morning before work and was pleasantly surprised with the increased performance on the bike. My husband is gone for two nights on business so it's quiet around the house. Most of my food for tomorrow is pre-logged already.

Round 173 #1 (SW 253, FW 249)
Round 174 #2 (SW 249, FW 246.5*)
Round 175
1/17 246.5 I was extra surprised by the number on the scale this morning. Hopefully, my Saturday of sinful calories won’t catch up with me tomorrow. 😂 Back in school with masks today, and 8 of the 15 rooms in my building are on modified quarantine status, I’m just waiting for my turn. I’m grateful parents and students didn’t put up a fight about wearing masks.
1/18 248.5 There’s my weekend weight! Staying on track with calories today should help me get back down.
1/19 247 There it is again, 247, my body seems to want to hold on to this one. 🙃 I hit my protein and fiber goals while staying under calories today, so maybe tomorrow is the day I kiss it good buy forever!
1/20 245.5 A new low! I planned my calories today because I’m only human and it's half-priced Sonic Corn Dogs Day. I stayed under calories, but I was also under on protein and fiber.
1/21 245.5 holding steady, but went over on calories a bit. I was so hungry all day even with 150 grams of protein, so I indulged in some pudding for desserts and I’ll take the extra calories.
1/22 - 244.5 Hey! 2 pounds down! I’ve been noticing that my 5-week prediction hasn’t been dropping as much as it used to, and I know I’ll need to be making some more changes soon. So I started researching gym options in my area. I know I need to lower my calorie goal, but I’d rather start working off some more than trying to consume less. Eventually, I’ll have to do both, but one step at a time!🙂
1/23 243 This is encouraging since I’ve really struggled the past couple of days with wanting to stress eat, teaching seems to be the only plate I have that’s full and still being piled upon… sigh. I went ahead and lowered my daily calorie goal to 1,900 so I’m hoping to keep seeing the scale drop. Have a great week everyone!
1/24 243 Today was a busy and stressful Monday, so much so that when was packing up to leave school at 6:09 I realized I only drank half of my breakfast smoothie. So I enjoyed some gelato after dinner instead. 😆 I’m guessing the extra sugar late tonight will have an effect tomorrow. Other than that, I was under calories, but just barley missed my protein and fiber goals.

Round 175 (107th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine. Here we go again, I prove time and time again, round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow! Would like to lose a pound this round.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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/17 136.2 – 11.8 miles walked yesterday, calories & all macros in credit.
1/18 137.2 – 11.03 miles walked, calories under, but on reflection not the best choices as carbs & fat 19 & 15g over respectively.
1/19 138.6 – ugghhr !! bad choices yesterday, big binge . 9.92 miles walked yesterday.
1/20 138.2 -13.25 miles walked yesterday & an hours yoga. Good food choices, calories & all macros well under. Should try to remember it takes twice as long to undo a binge than to do it !
1/21 137.8 – good choices yesterday, 288 calories & 108 carbs over due to no structured walking; travelled up to spend day with DD & little DGSs – we played !! It was wonderful!
1/22 139.6 – oh my giddy aunt!!! Should have expected this really, Indian meal out with friends last night; high sodium/fat/carbs which are difficult to calculate calories etc. & also ate after 9 pm. 8.25 miles walked yesterday including to and from the restaurant.
1/23 138.8 – 9.45 miles walked yesterday, calories 5 over, but carbs 45g over, need to work more on carbs now I think.
1/24 137.2 – 6.58 miles walked yesterday, calories well under, carbs just 8g over, all other macros in credit.
1/25 137.2 – 9.9 miles walked, calories well under, carbs 10g over.

Goal weight: 140 lbs
Current weight: 197.5 lbs (15/01)
Total weight lost: 8 lbs (15/01)
I started the 52 lbs in 52 weeks challenge 5th January and it's been going great so far 😊 but I can already feel my resolve slipping and having got to goal weight before I had my kids I know how important these first few weeks are! So I think I need the daily accountability to keep me on track right now.
Round #1 SW 197.7 lbs
17/01 197.4 lbs
I allow myself a cheat meal at the weekend and I had a muffin yesterday so wasn't expecting a massive difference. I'm only aiming for 1 lb a week so very happy with this start!
18/01 197.0 lbs
I'm surprised at this. Yesterday was a Covid-19 isolation nightmare! We're all ill, kids obviously couldn't go to nursery and a small glass of red wine and cookie was my answer 😂 ToM also started today... maybe the stress burned the extra calories 🤔 Thankfully our PCRs came back negative this morning so feel like I can get back on track!
19/01 196.0 lbs
Yesterday was less stressful and the kids are back at nursery today but I'm still feeling pretty rough. Managed to stay under my daily calorie goal but with it being the ToM I was worried about water weight so was happily surprised to see a big daily loss. Going to work hard today to maintain it 💪but am trying to psychologically prepare myself for when the losses slow/stall so I don't give up!
20/01 196.6 lbs
I've had a slight gain but totally accept this is normal when you're weighing daily and my overall trend is a loss so not freaking out - yet 😄 I stayed within my calories so will trust the process!
21/01 196.6 lbs
I've stuck to my calorie goal so hoping for a drop soon 🤞 although I'm still on track for my weekly loss so maybe I need to reframe and be happy with a maintain 🤔
22/01 196.6 lbs
Are my scales broken??? I've stuck to my calories 🤷🏼♀️
23/01 196.8 lbs
What is going on? I stuck to my calories and I was pretty active yesterday (over 15,000 steps). Was one small glass of wine 🍷 enough to cause water retention 🤔
24/01 196.0 lbs
Phew!!! Was starting to worry there as I'm staying within my calories. I guess weighing daily is going to really show my water fluctuations.
25/01 195.8 lbs
So relieved to see another loss. That's 9 days I've stuck to my calories 😊
1 day to go, stay strong 💪7 -

YOU CAN’T WALK YOUR WAY OUT OF A BAD DIET. Last year I walked over 500 miles and still gained weight.
Losing weight will help me -
…feel healthy and strong again.
…fit comfortably into my work clothes.
…slide on a pair of jeans.
…hike in the spring.
…look good for my daughter’s high school graduation.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/17 - 203.3 - Maybe this is the round to go below 200? I don't know. We're close to tax season so my losses are going to slow down even more but I won't give up. I will do 30 minutes of cardio and some strength every day. My wife says I don't have anything left to lose so that's good at least lol.
01/18 - 202.8 - This morning I woke up early, did a stretch, 30 minutes of strength and 40 minutes on the bike. I feel like at this point I have to believe my diet is what's holding me back from 200 so I have to reassess that I guess. It's sure not lack of exercise... I've been snacking more than I should at night and not keeping track of calories so have to tighten that up.
01/19 - 202.2 - Woke up even earlier today to get more done but still have time to spend with my pups before I had to leave for work. Definitely ate light yesterday and worked hard yesterday and this morning so theoretically I'm doing the right thing.
01/20 - 201.5 - I think the shake-up of my workouts are really helping this number come down. My body got used to just doing bike rides every day and now I'm doing more and it seems to be working. This morning I did a 10 minute core workout and then my first 45 minute "bike bootcamp" and man that was hard. Starting to really love exercise!
01/21 - 201.2 - Happy to see another day down in weight. I know Monday will probably be an uptick because it's my last 2 day weekend until April so I am going to enjoy it. I'm also going to workout hard because I have the time. Planning on at least an hour of rides tomorrow and then some strength classes. Food was pretty good yesterday minus the one donut I had but that's life sometimes you treat yourself.
01/22 - 201.6
01/23 - 205.9
01/24 - 203.3 - I'm going to say that yesterday's weigh in was an outlier. However today's is real and I just have to stop drinking on weekends. Just destroying all progress I make and for what? To be sick the next day? I did all of my weight loss without a drink and now I drink and just feel awful about everything. Skipped working out yesterday because I had a headache. Slept horribly. I just need to go sober AT LEAST until I reach my goal.
01/25 - 200.6 - No explanation at all for this. 2 outlier days and then a drop? I did go through a lot of water yesterday. Hey I'll take it!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/17 - 148 - This has to be due to some extra salt this weekend. In the meantime, I should get some exercise in today while helping my husband shovel the 13 to 14 inches of snow that fell on our driveway last night. I feel fortunate that I can call out of work today, in my younger years I would have powered through the snow with my rear wheel drive, manual transmission Chevy Chevette.
01/18 - 148 - Back to the office today. Tax season starts this week, so that means long hours, weekend work, and company bought lunches. I'll do my best to stay on track.
01/19 - 146.5 - I expect a little bounce tomorrow, but it's good to see I'm trending in the right direction.
01/20 - 146.5 - I've been really good about tracking my food. I need to keep it up and maybe I can get down to 146.
01/21 - 147 - I'm a little disappointed about the bump up considering I've been keeping on plan. However, my weight last Friday was 149.5, so I'm still doing OK.
01/22 - 147 - We had pizza last night so I pulled out my food scale to make sure I had an accurate amount for my food diary. Brrr, it's cold outside. It was -2F right before I left for work today. I hope everyone else is keeping warm.
01/23 - 146 - I had a catered lunch at work yesterday and then I came home to sausage corn chowder and beer bread my husband had made. I expect a bump in the scale tomorrow, but I didn't go too far over my maintenance calories and I'm back on track today.
01/24 - 146 - Work from home today due to a power outage in my office building. I need to treat today like a workday eating day, instead of a weekend splurge day.
01/25 - 145.5 - I behaved pretty well at home yesterday. Now if I can just hold on until tomorrow, I'll be happy.
