10/09 -200.8- (Trend weight 199.5)Now that is a lot of bloat! No pill allowed today either because it’s a travel day. My first weigh in after pill will be Tuesday. My weight can fluctuate up to 5 pounds on the “off pill” days. Umph…..
10/10 -199.8- (Trend weight 199.5) I was very very mindful of my dinner out during travel yesterday. I ate half and brought the other half home for my son later. Last night for dinner I ate half my usual portion. I was really trying to take cues from my body while eating. My accomplished goal was to only eat until I wasn’t super hungry anymore, then stop. I don’t have to be “full” to be nourished or satisfied. Today I am going to try to pick better choices in regards to carbs. I’ll look at each thing I eat and see if there is a healthier carb choice I can substitute. It’s a real start to lowering them.

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Salty lunch yesterday, and a bit of snacking last night. It’s ok. Today is one of my no-dinner days, and I’ll be out walking for tracking class I’m teaching for 2 or so hours this evening, so it will fall off again. We have gorgeous weather—perfect October gold. 🍁🍁🍁

I was up early this morning to get to our club’s K9 nose work trial, so weighed a bit earlier than usual. Came home with Rory’s first sports title — Novice Containers, meaning he found the designated scent concealed in one of 12 closed boxes in each separate run. Good boy Rory! Here he is examining his ribbons.
10/9 - 177.6
Weird food day yesterday, so I’m not surprised. But I still plan — and I have a plan! — to be below 177 by the end of this round! Beautiful chilly fall day—off for a walk with my pup.
10/10 - 176.8
Ok, back to where I was the end of last round. Maybe I can do a bit better by the end of this one!

10/4 213.6 Happy new round! I got three free weeks of Hello Fresh so we’re having our first meal from them tonight. Even their low-calorie meals run higher than I usually have for dinner, so I’m having to plan around it. But meals are planned and logged.
10/5 213.6 @ashleycarole86, you were right about the Hello Fresh meal – it was delicious! Beginning rehearsals tonight for our Christmas cantata at church. I used to sing but haven’t in a long time, so I’m looking forward to getting back into it. Meals are planned and logged.
10/6 213.6 Nothing really new here. Lots of work to get done in the next two weeks before vacation, so just trying to stay on plan.
10/7 213.8 Happy Friday! I’m headed to my 40th high school reunion this weekend, which should be interesting. Hoping to keep on plan or at least plan-adjacent as much as possible.
10/8 DNW – out of town
10/9 DNW – out of town
10/10 213.8 I’m pretty happy that I maintained over this weekend! Had a great time and saw lots of people I haven’t seen in years. Now back on plan for two weeks until vacation. Meals for today are planned.

10/5 210 Weight always comes off when I’m focused on me and watching what I eat. The problem comes when there are stresses in life that are uncontrollable and I eat my frustrations away. Trying to stay focused on a day at a time and on the current round and not looking so far ahead.
10/6 210.2 Traveling today to help my almost 83 year old mother who fell and broke her arm.
10/7 Traveling
10/8 209.2 Very surprising. Usually it goes up with traveling and stress.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/4 / 172 / Started the day with an early work issue. On my way to the office now. Will walk at lunch and then my dog will need to go out after work so that will likely be my exercise for the day.
10/5 / 172.8 / Ate lots of salad yesterday, got over 14K steps, and rode the Peloton.
10/6 / 171.8 / On our way to Ontario to visit my MIL for Canadian Thanksgiving. Got lots of steps around the airport.
10/7 / 170.2 / Yesterday was a later night getting into Toronto so my meal timing is a bit off. Just had a good hotel breakfast. Today we drive north to my MIL's town but not without a few stops first.
10/8 / 169.4
10/9 / 168.2
10/10 / 169.8 / On the flight back home after our weekend visit with my MIL. We had a great time. Fairly sedentary but the purpose was to spend time with his mom. Thankful for the trip.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/4: 131.2 - The problem with ending with all-time low weight at the end of the last round…Had quite a large number of exercise calories, but probably should not have eaten them all back.
10/5: 131.8 - Too many sweets…
10/6: 130.1 - Unintentional strategy: didn’t get my workout in at all, so kept my calories low. Then at 9:30 last night, realized I still had time/energy for a workout. Literally the last thing I did before going to bed (that and a shower) so I didn’t eat back any of the exercise calories. I don’t think I would do it all the time, but the mindset of not eating back my workout calories is an interesting one.
10/7: 128.5 - I have no explanation, other than perhaps yesterday’s unintended strategy is reflected in today’s number. Our flight leaves at 6 am tomorrow morning, so I’ll see if I remember to weigh.
10/8: 130.7 - Did a 20 minute walk at the airport and didn’t eat pretty much the whole day until dinner and then the wine and snacks after dinner. I’m sure the last hour did me in.
10/9: DNW - Traveling - Got my workout in this morning, but the time change has our eating patterns a bit messed up.
10/10: DNW - Traveling - Good day today with exercise and eating. Amazing how your calories are controlled when you don’t snack!

Total round weight loss/gain to date from EO last round: + 0.2 pounds5 -
64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 201 (my 133th). Thanks again @QuiltingJaine.
2.6 pounds of holiday weight gain gone, 1.4 to go, that is my goal for this round. Resting heart rate down to 50, that's an improvement too as that is directly linked to my weight. 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. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

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.

Awesome! Thank you as always for posting @quiltingjaine! These challenges really keep me motivated and you are a great group of people! ❤️
This will be my 12th round and I have lost a total of 26.3 pounds so far! This challenge brings me the most success and is much easier by breaking up my goals into smaller chunks.
I have one very solid goal, to be in Onederland by 12/17/22, after that, let the weight come off how it does.

Starting weight for R21: 166.0lbs
R21 Goal Weight: 163.0lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
10/4 - 166.0lbs Stayed within my calorie goal yesterday, but felt really sluggish when working out. Had a 3-day binge during the weekend and it’s really affecting the start of my week. My daily goal is to stay within my calorie goal and avoid the late night snackies.
10/5 - 165.1lbs (↓ -0.9) Wooho! There goes the water from the weekend carbs I stayed under my calorie goal last night and away from snacks.
10/6 - 164.4lbs (↓ -1.6) Hoping this continues steadily and that I end up reaching my goal for the round 😄 Stayed below my calorie goal yesterday. I am going to focus on getting an hour of exercise today and drinking more water.
10/7 - 164.7 (↓ -1.3) Just happy to see that I'm staying under 165 for two days in a row I did an hour of HIIT training yesterday and today, which does something with my mood. I feel like every day I work out; I get so much more energy to face everything else in life. Focusing on getting 10k steps in before tomorrow too. I have a sedentary job, so I need to actively get those steps in since I sit around all day
10/8 - 164.5 (↓ -1,5) Feeling motivated when entering this weekend 😊👏🏻
10/9 - 164.2 (↓ -1,8) The arrow is going down and that is great 👌🏻 Ate around 400 cals more yesterday than I did previous days, but I think it’s alright.. I’ve been 100-300 calories under my goal every other day of the week.
10/10 163.4 (↓ -2.6) Closing in on my goal for the round! 🎉 Focusing on keeping this week an active one and avoiding sugary treats, aiming for four workouts.
10/11 163.4 (↓ -2.6) Yay! Day two on this number I just started taking creatine, so I won't be surprised if I see a small bump in weight in the coming days. The last time I started creatine, I gained around 4 pounds, but it's just water, so I'm not very worried if I don't reach my goal this round because of it - it will even out. The most important part is that I've really found my workout motivation again and that I'm constantly staying in my calorie range. I'm in it for the long run and want to go about it in a healthy way.

10/11 - 160.9 - Expected as I rehydrate. I know it'll take a up to 3 days after rehydrating for my body to drop the water weight I've been holding on to. Yesterday was the first day I tracked and made sure I had my usual 90oz in full so I'm not expecting to see a drop until tomorrow or Thursday at the very earliest. Luckily I learned this by being a part of this group so long. I realized yesterday that I was part of this group when we hit 100 rounds. Now we're past round 200! Wowza. Thank you all for being so amazing and supportive. It's because of you I'm taking this uptick so well and I'm easing back into routine rather being upset with myself and hurting myself by going too hard too fast. Now, for day 2 of yoga (AND MY FITBIT!!! It is scheduled to arrive today and I'm BEYOND excited. My wrist has felt naked these last few days (it died Thursday morning last week) and I dislike having to carry my phone around the house to see the time, set timers, and to track if I've moved enough. Which, by the way, hasn't worked because I don't typically carry my phone with me if I'm coming right back to my desk)

10/10 - Between a full week of vacation and my birthday celebration yesterday, I'm actually not mad! I was very much expecting to be over 160 so seeing I'm still in the 150s is super exciting! I figured I needed to check in today to get a baseline starting point if nothing else. Unfortunately, my Fitbit finally, after 3 years, crashed and burned. I ordered myself a new one as my own birthday present and it should arrive tomorrow afternoon. I woke up naturally today 3 minutes before my noisy alarm and figured I might as well get up. BF took today off to recuperate a bit more and I don't need my phone alarm waking him up early, either. Going to ease into some morning yoga this morning since I wasn't planning on being awake and recovered enough for a workout. I'm not sure of dinner today but we have leftover smoked ribs from dinner yesterday I want to use up for lunch today. Hoping a week off from work doesn't make today super stressful for me and this transition back to reality isn't difficult, particularly in the stress-eating area. Glad to be back to all you wonderful people!

Non-scale goals:

✏️ Tracking 10/10 days
⏱ Fasting > 16 hours 9/10 days
🚫 no alcohol 6/10 days
RSW: 128
RGW: 126
Day/Weight/Comment10/4 - 💪🏻✏️⏱🚫 128. My body LOVES this weight! It just keeps coming back up whenever it drops below or sitting here for days on end. If I want to get down to my ideal weight, whatever it ends up being, I’m going to have to rein in my weekends quite a bit. I’m definitely in a pattern of being on plan all week, undoing it during the weekend, then spending the following weekdays recovering.10/11 - 127; maaaaybe I can make it to 126 by Thursday? I’m still paranoid the weekend will catch up with me! Maybe it wasn’t quite as bad as I thought. Going to try to do an extended fast today and make a chicken feast for dinner tonight.
10/5 - 💪🏻✏️⏱🚫 127.4. Phew! Getting close to my lowest recent weight. Hope to keep the ball rolling in this direction.
10/6 - 💪🏻✏️⏱🚫 126.2! Yay! Definitely feeling progress toward my goals this week. Yesterday I walked the dogs and did a Peloton ride. Today I'm planning to do a mountain bike ride with a friend as long as no meetings come up for this afternoon. I've been missing the outdoors due to my Peloton addiction, and the leaves are really starting to pop around here now. Tonight I'm going rock climbing for the first time in ages. I used to go multiple times a week but having kids and moving from Colorado to Virginia has really put a damper on it. It will be my first time in probably 2 years! I weigh significantly less now so hopefully it will be easier. Then tomorrow I'm taking a half day and we're taking the kids hiking for the afternoon. It really feels like I'm leaning into my past outdoorsy life. Sorry for all the chatter, just feeling excited!
10/7 - 💪🏻✏️⏱ 126.2. I'm okay if I stay here a while. The rate of weight loss is getting slower and slower. I have to focus on work this morning since I'm taking a half day so my only workout will probably be a short hike with the littles. But I'll be carrying one of them (32 pounds) so that should make it more of a workout. Happy Friday everyone!
10/8 -💪🏻⏱ 124.8?? That seems wild. I don’t expect to stay here because I really went off plan yesterday on our little family outing. Hoping to do better for our other outings today!
10/9 - 💪🏻⏱ DNW
10/10 - 💪🏻✏️⏱128.4 - New scale accounts for part of this, but also I didn't track all weekend. But the new scale seems to be about 3 pounds higher so I don't think the damage was quite as bad as it looks! We went to a pot luck yesterday and the food was sooo delicious but impossible to accurately track. I guess I could have figured it out but it didn't really seem worth the effort. Excited to get back on track for the week today! Unfortunately, with my scale change, I'm probably not going to hit my goal but that's okay.

/did not exercise as planned/ I spent 6 hours with my dad at the emergency room last night. What seemed like it could have been a stroke, ended up being a terrible case of bronchitis, which made him dizzy. Glad it was not a stroke, but he needs to take better care of himself and go to the doctor when things aren’t right. He wears his avoidance of medical help like a badge of honor. My mom on the other hand will go to the Dr. for a hang nail. Quite the pair.

/nada/ We had a dinner party at our house last night and DW must have hidden the scale so guest wouldn’t see it in the bathroom. Let me also say I was not eager to find it after last nights me
10/6: 217
/meetings galore. No activity/ Didn’t expect this jump in scale reading. I guess I shouldn’t expect anything at all if I don’t pay attention to what I eat and do at all.
Sometimes dealing with whole numbers can make things look more depressing. I was just “this close” to 216.
Per ER orders, dad is to see his GP within 3 days. I made the appointment, and I am taking him. This looks like the beginning of an era.

/walking/ I need to get back into logging my food.

/fishing with DGS (and DS)/ My scale does not know what to think about this yoyo. Lately I have been logging breakfast, then forgetting about it the rest of the day. And it shows.
10/11: 217
/nothing/ lots of Book work. And eating. The gradual lessening of daylight puts me in a funk.

Salty lunch yesterday, and a bit of snacking last night. It’s ok. Today is one of my no-dinner days, and I’ll be out walking for tracking class I’m teaching for 2 or so hours this evening, so it will fall off again. We have gorgeous weather—perfect October gold. 🍁🍁🍁

My schedule seems to be all messed up. I seem to have lost a couple of days somewhere! I think I’m back on track? We shall see!
10/7 - 177.6
I’m late, I’m late…. I forgot to check in this morning on my way run errands. Duh!

I was up early this morning to get to our club’s K9 nose work trial, so weighed a bit earlier than usual. Came home with Rory’s first sports title — Novice Containers, meaning he found the designated scent concealed in one of 12 closed boxes in each separate run. Good boy Rory! Here he is examining his ribbons.

Weird food day yesterday, so I’m not surprised. But I still plan — and I have a plan! — to be below 177 by the end of this round! Beautiful chilly fall day—off for a walk with my pup.
10/10 - 176.8
Ok, back to where I was the end of last round. Maybe I can do a bit better by the end of this one!
10/11 - 177.4
I hate when that happens! No particular reason as my calories were on target, so who knows. Time will tell!

10/4 – 227.2 lbs.
10/5 – 225.6 lbs.
10/6 – 225.8 lbs. I need to be careful of my snacks in the evening.
10/7 – 226 lbs. I am not too thrilled with the scale right now. Maybe too much salt in my diet? Nothing else has changed. I am really just starting out so it makes sense that it will take time to refine my routine to achieve my goals.
10/8 – 225.8 lbs.
10/9 – 225.2 lbs.
10/10 – 225.2 lbs. I don’t spend much time online on the weekends. Monday is my catch up day.
10/11 – 226 lbs. Up again ugh.
