    Day/Weight/Comment
    8/5 / 165.8 / Today after work my husband and I go up to the lake.. it's been a couple weekends since we've been there so we'll have grass cutting chores. Lots of relaxing otherwise!
    8/6 / 164.6 / Back to my maintenance range. Woo hoo! Yesterday I did a 30 minute Peloton ride and got my 10,000 steps. We have a celebratory dinner tonight at the lake for a friend who has been successfully kicking cancer's butt for a year now.
    8/7 / 165.8 / Didn't get many steps yesterday - went out for one walk but mostly ended up relaxing at our trailer. My husband cooked the celebratory meal for our friends.
    8/8 / 167 / Did walking, yoga, and strength for exercise yesterday. Our friends had us over for homemade pizza.
    8/9 / 166.2 / Dealing with some pretty big upcoming changes at work and finding the stress difficult. Trying to ensure I don't let my self care suffer. Still finding ways to execute on my good habits.
    8/10 / 167.6 / My night last night turned into a self-pity meltdown. I missed my exercise, had a donut and wine, and put myself to bed early. Today was a much better day all around. I did a good strength session, got in a bit of walking, and ate well.
    8/11 / 167.4 / Did a strength class after getting home last night and got to bed early. Haircut after work tonight.

    8/5 - 177.2
    Finally! I actually thought I might be up this morning—after 3 hours of tracking last night (which means 3 hours walking on a variety of surfaces from asphalt and concrete to mowed grass to knee-high weedy fields to lay tracks, track Rory, and follow my training partners as their dogs track) I was hungry (and skipped dinner) so I had popcorn and then a small dish of ice cream. I know, I know, but hey, I got my whole grain and fiber, my calcium, and a whole lot of satisfaction. 😁 Anyway, I’m glad to see this drop—I re-weighed three times to be sure! This morning I’m doing laundry and some weeding—the summer fun never stops! Here are a couple of shots of my gardens, back & front.

    8/6 - 177.8
    I thought yesterday’s check in was a little optimistic! That’s fine. Lots of miscellaneous jobs to do today, so that will keep me moving. Have a lovely Saturday!

    8/7 - 177.4
    Rory and I were out the door at 6:30 this morning to track with a friend before it gets too hot, which it’s starting to do. It was lovely out early, though! Enjoy your Sunday!

    8/8 - 178.8

    8/9 - 178.4

    8/10 - 177.4
    Apparently I failed to post for two days. But I’m sure I did. Hmmmm. Anyway, I filled in the missing weights, kicked up over the weekend. I did a bit of emotional eating. Oh, well, doing the best I can right now.

    8/11 - 177.6
    Later than usual. I weighed first thing but then was off to the vet with Rory and after that, i was sidetracked all day. But here I am! Off to do some tracking in a few minutes. Yep

    I have done this challenge before and it really helped keep me on track to healthy living. I have since gained most of that weight back (and then some) but I'm not discouraged. I am a 21-year old varsity college athlete who is just looking to lean up a bit - taking small goals at a time as weight-loss isn't my goal - just trying to lean myself into a healthier lifestyle.

    8/10: 190.0 - this is +17 lbs from where I was the last time I did this challenge. Not to be discouraged because this is also 5lbs DOWN from where I was at the beginning of summer. Excited to see how my numbers progress over the days!

    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 195 ( my 127th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal this round again is to lose. I need to continue to resist the Commonwealth Games Volunteer goodies to keep the movement downwards (3 shifts out of 10 left to do !! ) No binges, keep within calories & macros.
    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 then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    Goal for this round: To weigh less than when the round started.

    Previous days
    8/5 Not sure what today is but yesterday I weighed and was around 124.2 I think. I didn’t get a chance to post yesterday because I had to start my work day an hour earlier. Then, we ended up unexpectedly replacing my husband’s car (it was time and decided to stop at one of the dealerships we were passing to see what they had. The past two years have been expensive for his 11 year old car with $500-$1,800 dollar expenses often). So, that delayed our trip by a few hours but the dealership was amazing and did everything they could to have us be able to drive off the lot that night with a “new to us” 3 year old car.
    Food was decent for me yesterday except for McDonalds for dinner at 10 o’clock because of the delayed evening.
    8/6 NH
    8/7 NH
    8/8 Did not post
    8/9 Did not weigh or post. Started to type it out but had to log into work. New Hampshire was a solid weekend get away. Now back to the gym, work, and making healthy food choices. Did lower body today and it felt really good. I’m continuing to go up in weight, which is really encouraging
    8/10 Did not weigh. Work is crazy busy and I got home later from the gym this morning so I didn’t have a chance to post. Food was good all day and I even resisted us going out to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner tonight.

    8/11 did not post,went right into the office after the gym.
    8/12 124.5 Feeling really good this morning after working out. It was an upper body push day and it felt really solid. Also, muscle pump is super satisfying to see even if it doesn’t last all day. Food has been good the past couple days. We’re staying home this weekend, so food over the weekend should be decent as well.

    This weekend I'll be hitting the gym tomorrow morning and then cleaning out the other side of our basement because the construction process to build us more living space is finally getting rolling! The builders who will be working with us are coming over Monday and hopefully, we'll have a start date after meeting with them. Permits have been processed...so I'm getting very excited. This has been almost 3 years of waiting with countless plans changing/morphing over time. When everything is complete we'll be going from ~480 sq ft of finished living space to about 750-800 sq ft of living space. This will include a galley kitchen (currently using a convection oven/air fryer and a hot plate burner thing for our "kitchen" in the unfinished side of the basement plus a basement slop sink for dishes), an extra bedroom/office space for me, and a small full bathroom (currently using the one two flights of stairs up from us), and a dog house basement entrance (currently lifting the bulk head every time we go in/out). After almost 8 or 9 years of living this way, I can't wait to have this project completed! Now to get ready for a busy day but a good one. Happy Friday all!

    ROUND 188
    SW: 179.2

    ROUND 189
    SW: 180.2

    ROUND 190
    SW: ?

    ROUND 191
    SW: 174.4

    Round 193
    SW: 179.6

    ROUND 194
    SW: 179.2

    7/26: 179.2 puffy leg this morning. that's not new, and i think it may have reduced a little since yesterday. salt intake was high yesterday, i'll have to watch that. calories and macros were great! so many things to stay focused on.

    7/27: 177.2 keeping up with the water is helping. leg is practically back to normal, just a little puff around the ankle. calories and macros were on point again, but sadly sodium was still a little high.

    7/28: 175.8 i think all the water weight is gone... the rest is probably the actual weight i gained. i usually eat a slice of white bread w/peanut butter as a snack for the last thing i eat. it carries me through 'til breakfast. i messed up last night and missed my snack. ended up eating PB bread at 2am today, so calories will be over today, and were under yesterday.

    7/29: 175.8 i'm actually quite happy to see this weight. my calories were excessive yesterday (as expected). I was sure to get my PB bread BEFORE going to bed last night. i will probably see a weight gain later in the week for my mess up.

    7/30: 174.8 look at that! it says i'm down a pound. did really good with calories yesterday, macros were off. oh well, keep on moving in the right direction.

    7/31: 173.4 my scale is just being deceitful again. i'll keep logging what it's spewing out, but don't believe a word of it.

    8/1: 172.6

    8/2: 172.2 not feeling my best this morning, so expecting a gain over the next few days. eating foods that will settle in my belly vs. counting calories. drinking ginger ale vs. water. got a little worried about covid since i just got back from the cruise, but took the rapid test, and got negative results. so, all i have to worry about will be added calories to my diet.

    8/3: 172.8

    8/4: 172.4 back to the diet (sort of). the man wants cheese burgers. i bought the ground beef, and handed it over to him. he said he made 6oz. patties for freezer and we each get a 5oz patty today. cheese burgers sound great, but oooh the calories. i took my burger and smooshed it very thin with 1 piece of cheese. once cooked, i cut the burger in half and placed the other half on italian bread w/mustard. i'll have the other half tomorrow. i'll be over my allotted calories for weight loss, but still below my maintenance calories.

    ROUND 195
    SW: 172.4

    Day/Weight/Comment

    8/5: 172.4 not a bad place to start the challenge

    8/6: 171.8 weight is "pre" everything. i usually weigh in after i've had coffee and water. haven't had coffee or water yet this morning, so i'm figuring i'm at least a solid 172 lbs.

    8/7: 172.4

    8/8: 171.8

    8/9: 171.4 i am actually getting excited to see the 160's. maybe by round 197??? what an accomplishment that would be!

    8/10: 171.8 had 1/2 a blueberry muffin from sams club yesterday. had the other 1/2 this morning. i knew i shouldn't have, but who can just leave a muffin top just sitting there!

    8/11: 171.4 that muffin sent me on a carbohydrate binge. exceeded calories and days was primarily carbs and fat, very little protein. my indiscretions always takes a few days before they surface. wish it was cooler, i might have been able to walk a little bit of that off. this summer has been miserably hot. diet diligence for the rest of the challenge!

    8/12: 170.2 the loss has confused me. after the carb. binge, i have mostly been eating fruits and vegetables. i did also have chicken wings, which i think i mis-calculated nutrition on (on the higher side) so i probably had way less calories than is healthy.

    I have done this challenge before and it really helped keep me on track to healthy living. I have since gained most of that weight back (and then some) but I'm not discouraged. I am a 21-year old varsity college athlete who is just looking to lean up a bit - taking small goals at a time as weight-loss isn't my goal - just trying to lean myself into a healthier lifestyle.
    Round 146: -5.1lbs
    Round 147: -0.3lbs
    Round 148: -3.5lbs
    Round 149: +1.6lbs

    SW: 181.1lbs
    CW: 190.0
    GW: 175.0

    Day/Weight/Comment
    8/10: 190.0 - this is +17 lbs from where I was the last time I did this challenge. Not to be discouraged because this is also 5lbs DOWN from where I was at the beginning of summer. Excited to see how my numbers progress over the days!
    8/11: 189.8 - gonna be tough this weekend to be in my deficit as it's my anniversary
    8/12: 190.4 - not a promising start to the weekend, I may be unable to weigh tomorrow but it is what it is. I'm not restricting myself from food at all this weekend so we'll see where that takes us. 8 more days until I move and I can properly meal plan

    8/5 - 177.2
    Finally! I actually thought I might be up this morning—after 3 hours of tracking last night (which means 3 hours walking on a variety of surfaces from asphalt and concrete to mowed grass to knee-high weedy fields to lay tracks, track Rory, and follow my training partners as their dogs track) I was hungry (and skipped dinner) so I had popcorn and then a small dish of ice cream. I know, I know, but hey, I got my whole grain and fiber, my calcium, and a whole lot of satisfaction. 😁 Anyway, I’m glad to see this drop—I re-weighed three times to be sure! This morning I’m doing laundry and some weeding—the summer fun never stops! Here are a couple of shots of my gardens, back & front.

    8/6 - 177.8
    I thought yesterday’s check in was a little optimistic! That’s fine. Lots of miscellaneous jobs to do today, so that will keep me moving. Have a lovely Saturday!

    8/7 - 177.4
    Rory and I were out the door at 6:30 this morning to track with a friend before it gets too hot, which it’s starting to do. It was lovely out early, though! Enjoy your Sunday!

    8/8 - 178.8

    8/9 - 178.4

    8/10 - 177.4
    Apparently I failed to post for two days. But I’m sure I did. Hmmmm. Anyway, I filled in the missing weights, kicked up over the weekend. I did a bit of emotional eating. Oh, well, doing the best I can right now.

    8/11 - 177.6
    Later than usual. I weighed first thing but then was off to the vet with Rory and after that, i was sidetracked all day. But here I am! Off to do some tracking in a few minutes. Yep

    8/12 - 178
    Enjoy your Friday, all! I have two new roses to plant, so I’ll enjoy that. 🌹

    I’ve come back.. again! 😁 let’s get this done!!! I’ve been weight training instead of only cardio, so I’m not sure how this will pan out with scale weight only. I know the real victory is how I look in the mirror as things progress, but I always need some sort of number motivation.

    SW: 179.5 - only have 2 days on this for this week so I don’t expect any real progress for this round lol but my ultimate goal is 160lbs!

    Day/Weight/Comment
    8/05: 133.4 - Holding steady. Did my workouts and normal eating and good sleep.
    8/06: 133.8 - Normal workouts and eating.
    8/07: 133.2 - Normal workout plus cleaned the refrigerator. Went to a barbecue at a friend’s place and they had so many fresh vegetables from their garden - delicious!
    8/08: 133.2 - Ate back every calorie on my plan. Snuck a small walk in at the end of the day to bring up my exercise calories.
    8/09: 132.9 - Worked out and then finished the rest of the house cleaning in preparation for our friends’ arrival. They called around 5pm with the news that the wife tested positive for Covid just then. We’re all so disappointed as we’ve been looking forward to this visit for almost a year.
    8/10: 132.1 - Got both my workouts in. Good eating within calories. Didn’t do much yesterday other than a little unsuccessful shopping trip.
    8/11: 133.4 - Had a nice long hike, but then ate a bunch of salty, sweet, carby things the rest of the afternoon/evening.
    8/12: 133.4 - Recovering from the hike (and fall) the day before so didn’t do anything more strenuous than a 35 minute slowish walk around the neighborhood. Consequently, didn’t have the exercise calories to consume, but ate as if I did.

    @eaper64 Keep tracking honestly and learn your body’s pattern. This is how I noticed that it generally takes 2-3 days for what I eat to show on the scale. Carbs + Fat daily WILL add up.
