@SheilaBoneham I don't really use a recipe for the dip. I just gradually add the ingredients until I get the taste I want. Sometimes I use more djon, sometimes more garlic or salt depending on what I feel like. My last dip was 200g of cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon of djon mustard, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and salt to taste. I wiz it up with a stick blender and done. I usually only eat 50g at a time with some celery. I hope it works for you.6

Day/Weight/Comment
1/2: 177.0 lb
Finally getting my calories back under control after being careless about it over Christmas and New Year.
1/3: 176.4 lb
Exercised and stayed within calories.
1/4: 175.7 lb
All good again. I am exercising quite a bit. I think I need a rest day though because my body feels tired. That will make it harder to stay under calorie target.
1/5: 174.8 lb
Stayed within calories but it was hard because I didn't have any exercise calories. Drank lots of ginger tea and ate lots of celery with a cottage cheese dip to get by. Started TTOM which always gives me a big loss.

@RMommy73 have you double checked your calorie intake? Also has anything changed like a new exercise routine? If you are not menopausal then it could be hormone related depending on where you are in your cycle. Typically you need to track your cycle for a few rounds to understand how it reflects on your weight. I know when I am ovulating I gain a lot of weight. It usually comes off when TTOM rolls around so it takes a long time for me to see a loss again.4

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.

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 210 (my 142nd). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.
Goal for this round; flying off on holiday 7th Jan, so would like to lose 2 pounds and then hold that whilst we are away – big ask I know, so we'll see! Try to avoid Christmas goodies, just one small treat a day. No binges, keep within calories & macros, try to get walking around the weather (don't like walking in the rain!!!)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.

Hi everyone, I’m Amanda. I did these 10 day challenges all through last summer and most of fall. I stopped due to some medical issues in November and I really missed it but just couldn’t swing it. Anyway, I’m back, having gained 5 pounds but still with the medical issue. So, I’m giving this a try again as this is the challenge that works the best for me!
Good luck to everyone!

Yesterday was a tough day medical wise and I really, really wanted to drown my sorrows in dark chocolate. After much internal debate I chose 1 Oz of dark chocolate and a strawberry smoothie. It did the trick but the chocolate would have too 🫤

1/6 185.4 my calories were good and my workouts on point. I’m being generous with my calories in the evening meal while I focus on making sure it’s a protein rich salad. I should be able to shave calories off until I hit the sweet spot of deliciousness, filling and low calorie. I’m one of those weirdos that hates cooking and can eat the same thing most days when I’m focused on food for fuel. Because I have a history of disordered eating I’m working on not panicking and being overly restrictive.10 -

It was probably the squash bisque that had the extra calories but it was delicious. I only had one glass of wine instead of the normal two.

1/06 - 165.4 - It's a drop. A small one, but it's there. Dinner was a bit over seasoned. Mainly with cayenne pepper, but probably salt that I couldn't taste over the spiciness. Also finally got TMI after a lack thereof yesterday. Hopefully that helps with tomorrow's weigh-in. I got in a loooong walk (for us, at least. 1.8 miles to mailbox and back) with pup between work ending and dinner prep yesterday evening. Today I woke up without an alarm (I had to factory reset my Fitbit and completely forgot to set alarms) about 9 minutes later than alarm would normally be set. I got in my FeelGood Plan workout and all my journaling. Feeling quite good today in that regard. The factory reset on the fitbit was to get hourly reminders to move (if I don't hit 250 steps every hour, it tells me I have 10 minutes left to do so and how many steps are left to hit the 250 minimum). I have it set up for 7am to 7pm Monday - Friday. Unfortunately I don't know a way to up the number of required steps so I guess 250 will have to do. It will still get me off my bum every hour which I need! Fasting again today. I made it 15 hours yesterday before I needed a handful of grapes to settle the beginnings of the nausea feeling. Slowly but surely my body is adjusting!

Previous Day's Comments1/02 - Had wings yesterday with Fam and I know that always brings an uptick. Oh and I hit my highest weight EVER on New Years Eve.... joy. Apologies for not posting much, MFP decided that my account had been deactivated whenever I'd try to come on to post. But it wasn't deactivated on my phone as I was able to log in, log food, update progress (measurements and weight). Finally got it sorted out, though. Happy New Year, everyone! I'm not one for resolutions so I simply have my Nerd Fitness Anti-Challenge/Anti-Resolution. Its a 5 day program to set us up to NOT fail like most resolutions. And we are only making "resolutions" we have plans for by the end of this mini challenge (plans meaning: what to do when life gets in the way and we'd normally quit). I also have my new planner which has a place to note daily what you're grateful for, your mood, your self care (yes or no: food, movement, sleep, water, nutrition/supplements/vitamins) daily affirmations, dream journals, ritual/mindful minutes (meditation, morning rituals/bedtime rituals, etc), scripting (I'm scripting my day ahead what I hope/imagine it will be. Speaking good things into existence), 3-6-9 manifestation (learning more about that still), and 1 thing I did to move forward that day. In addition, I'm conveniently over my sinus infection as of Saturday so yesterday I woke up, took all my measurements, and got ready to start my FeelGood Plan (book) work. Week 1 is mostly just paying attention -- journal about sleep (when I went to bed, when I turned lights off, when I woke up, how I felt.), food (when I ate, how I felt right before/during/after eating. Log the food to start to see patterns, etc), and begin the 15 minute workout (provided bodyweight 3x week, Mon/Wed/Fri and choose 15 minutes of activity Saturday to get me moving, even if its just walking). I'm up super early today (430am!) but I went to bed super early last night and listened to my body. Instead of forcing myself back to sleep and oversleeping, I woke up and and I'm doing my morning ritual. I decided what I'm grateful for, wrote my affirmation, completed my dream journal (didn't remember anything, but can note down FeelGood Plan stuff), check in here, and then off to work out! Then coffee once it brews so I can sip that while scripting out my day. It's a day off work (not for BF) so I'm running errands and making dinner. Sorry so long! A lot to catch up on!
1/03 - Yay, a drop! I was mindful through the day with food because I knew the meal BF requested was NOT pretty. (Chicken bacon ranch stromboli. From scratch). I'm rather surprised I dropped this much eating that. I did, however, make a decision to take the pup for a much needed after dinner/before dark walk. By the time I got back, I had determined I didn't want any of the cheesecake I made (BF, who hates sweets, loves cheesecake. But he had only ever had strawberry swirl, which I made last week (better than the store-bought he had previously Win!) So now I experimented with a peanut butter cheesecake). I got in my FeelGood plan workout plus Yoga for Flexibility yesterday morning, as well. The NF Anti-Challenge yesterday was to change ONE thing - route to work to pass by gym, pack a gym bag, put yoga mat front and center rather than hiding in closet, etc. Also, to write down "emergency" workouts for when life happens (travel, time, not feeling it, etc). Today I already completed morning portion of planner and Yoga for Flexibility as my "stretch" day for FeelGood Plan. Time to get to work, I suppose! Goal: get up and move more frequently during the day!
1/04 - Cheesecake taste test last night. BF was right, too sweet. No more of that. Walked pup 1.5 miles before dinner. Today I'm cooking so not sure I'll fit in walk. I did squeeze in my FeelGood Plan workout in despite turning my alarm off when I meant to hit snooze! I slept (and dreamt) an extra 21 minutes. Guess I needed it! No room for yoga due to that debacle, but tomorrow is stretch/rest day and I can make it up. Dinner is beef stroganoff using the leftover ground beef we have. Ate 1/3rd kale salad for lunch today (plus roasted sweet potato), 1/3 will accompany dinner and 1/3 saved for tomorrow.
1/05 - I have logged YET ANOTHER highest weight ever. I have no idea what's going on. I don't feel overly sore from my workout, I drank all my water (and then some), I logged all my food, even my little chocolate oopsie (I was at maintenance calories at most). Sodium? It isn't TOM, that I know. Went for evening walk with pup as BF was hungry early and we ate early enough to squeeze it in before dark. I got the most steps I've had since last summer! All the things and yet, I'm just increasing my "start weight" rather than decreasing my "lowest weight". Nothing I can do at this point but keep trying. Being upset is only going to make it harder so acceptance it is.

SW: 221.8
Day/Weight/Comment
1/2 221.8
1/3 220.3 (-1.5/-1.5) Not the best of days but better than previous as I have had no structure. I did plan meals for yesterday but got caught up in a snack frenzy toward the end of the day. I did manage to increase my water from 32 ounces on 1/2 to 80 ounces. I have planned my meals for today as well as targeting water at 80 ounces again.
1/4 219.9 (-0.4/-1.9)
1/5 218.8 (-1.1/-3.00) What a pleasant surprise. Expected a bump as we had leftovers from the weekend that were calorie rich! And I had bread and bread is not normally my friend.
Today's plan is a chicken and vegetable stir fry and again, lots and lots of water.
1/6 219.9 (+1.1/-1.90) Well that was short lived. I guess it took at day to catch up with me. Yesterday was a good day with the chicken and veggies so I should see a drop in the morning. 🤞🏽

I also am trying to make sure I get in enough protein and fiber (35g protein/5g fiber each meal) plus a snack early in the day so that I'm not starving later in the day. I have noticed that on the nights that I'm extra hungry is all about not getting in enough protein/fiber earlier in the day.
@SheliaBoneham and @RockinRobyn672 I like the idea of the low sodium broth. I wonder how hard it would be (for protein) to make egg drop soup? Has anyone tried? I don't have a Chinese restaurant anywhere within 100 miles from me. I would love to know!
My friend has! She takes some of the seasonings (I think she adds ginger and something else) and makes almost a roux out of it. Then adds the broth with a little sesame oil. Separates the whites from the yolks. Whisks yolks, then adds to the hot broth before. Then immediately after (assuming broth is not a rolling boil and it's calm), slowly and gently spoons in the egg whites into it. Cooks until whites are cooked through and everything warm.
I would think the key for your goal would be to get the low-sodium broth hot enough to cook the eggs. And be sure to separate them and add them in as above to get the right consistency/egg drop soup feeling.
May not taste quiiiite the same without the extra stuff, but those do add calories. From there, you can adjust the seasonings and add-ins based on calorie needs and personal tastes.
@CamandJarvis Thank you so much! I am definitely going to try this!2 -

01/04 -198.8- (Trend weight 199.3)
01/05 -199.0- (Trend weight 199.2) A touch up but trend weight is down. I am required to eat breakfast before physical therapy (which is early) so I end up with 3 meals instead of two and a long day of eating at that. Luckily, the therapy itself burns a few calories. I also finished putting away the Christmas stuff when I got home, so lots of stairs to the basement. Therapy involves travel and lunch out, but I kept it simple and did not finish it bringing half home for my son. I am noticing that I just can’t eat as much as I used to. I’m often still filling my plate the old way, or ordering out the old way and it has changed to smaller portions. That is a win, my friends! That should yield some results in 2023. I think maybe I am paying more attention to my hunger and stopping when I'm full instead of automatically finishing? I don't know. I'm going to monitor this and try to figure it out. Now, I Just gotta deal with the every other day (and after travel) bloat days and not let them depress me and make me give up! I’m happy today with all my results after 3 days of travel.
01/06 -198.4- (Trend weight 199.2)My DD and DGS are here Thur – Sunday (until after 7:30 pm Sunday night) as usual. Dieting is tough through the week because of my cardiac travel (and other appts) and tough on weekends with her here as she is a tiny petite little foody who can get away with eating anything. I’ve got to stick to my guns for the weight and the T2D. My glucose numbers have been running rampant throughout the holidays. Time to get back into some form of control. I’m back down today lower than my start weight. Back (basically, depending on the day) to my pre-holiday weight. Time for progress!

I also am trying to make sure I get in enough protein and fiber (35g protein/5g fiber each meal) plus a snack early in the day so that I'm not starving later in the day. I have noticed that on the nights that I'm extra hungry is all about not getting in enough protein/fiber earlier in the day.
@SheliaBoneham and @RockinRobyn672 I like the idea of the low sodium broth. I wonder how hard it would be (for protein) to make egg drop soup? Has anyone tried? I don't have a Chinese restaurant anywhere within 100 miles from me. I would love to know!
My friend has! She takes some of the seasonings (I think she adds ginger and something else) and makes almost a roux out of it. Then adds the broth with a little sesame oil. Separates the whites from the yolks. Whisks yolks, then adds to the hot broth before. Then immediately after (assuming broth is not a rolling boil and it's calm), slowly and gently spoons in the egg whites into it. Cooks until whites are cooked through and everything warm.
I would think the key for your goal would be to get the low-sodium broth hot enough to cook the eggs. And be sure to separate them and add them in as above to get the right consistency/egg drop soup feeling.
May not taste quiiiite the same without the extra stuff, but those do add calories. From there, you can adjust the seasonings and add-ins based on calorie needs and personal tastes.
@CamandJarvis Thank you so much! I am definitely going to try this!
@deepwoodslady Let me know how it goes and any tweaks! I might need to try this to help add in some extra protein. I'm also looking to buy little miso packets at the store (just add hot water type) and may add an egg or two like in the soup. I LOOOOOVE miso, but it's super high in sodium so I'll be balancing that.2 -

SW: 211.2 1/1/2023 Focus is on sugar and water intake for this round, less sugar and more water.
Day/Weight/Comment
1/2 210. This is a pleasant surprise. I did eat less sugar and I did drink more water. Now to do it again. I always start off well and within a few days I give in to emotional and stress eating. Need to keep myself busy.
1/3 210 I’m very happy that the number did not go up. I did watch my sugar and drank my water but probably had too much sodium. Also not much movement yesterday.
1/4 209.6. Another great day. I know the way this works but I always fail due to emotional eating. My biggest challenge has always been how to channel that into something else and control what I put in my mouth. Looking at planning food and activities one or two days at a time right now and not any further. I want it to become a new habit of better self care.
1/5 209.6 Stayed the same but that’s great. So far so good today, challenges all around but need to also focus on me.
1/6 210 I don’t know how that happened as I was under my calories for the day yesterday. I’ll just take it as a normal fluctuation.

Day/Weight/Comment no food after dinner 💚
1/02 - 178.4 💚
Yay me — just a nice hot cup of bouillon around 9 p.m. but no caloric snack. One day at a time, right?
1/03 - 178.6 💚
I really wanted a late-night snack last night, but stuck to the plan with a cup of warm, unsweetened vanilla almond milk. I’m feeling very virtuous. 😇
1/04 - 178.2 💚
Last night I really really wanted to eat something—I wasn’t hungry, but my mouth wanted it. I almost broke down, but had a cup of salt-free chicken bouillon instead, and was reasonably satisfied and happy that I didn’t cave in. I’m making a point of eating well breakfast-lunch-dinner, with plenty of protein and 350-400 calories. It seems to be helping. I haven’t been actually hungry at night the past three nights, just “mouth” hungry, if that makes sense. I love the 10-day goal setting in general, and in this case I think if I can not snack for ten days I’ll be on my way to breaking that terrible habit.
1/05 - 177.2 💚
Yes! Finally headed back in the right direction. And my no snacking venture seems to be working—last night I just had a can of plain seltzer; didn’t bother with my hot drink. I ate plenty at my three meals. I was a bit hungry by bedtime, but resisted. Feeling hopeful.
1/06 - 177.2 💚
I’m happy to say I’ve made it almost a week without nighttime snacking other than bouillon or hot almond milk. I also am getting more exercise with Booker, my new pup. Yesterday he ran his first baby track (following a scent trail) and did great. He’s a smart little cookie. I’ll be glad when he doesn’t need to go out every two hours all night, though! Thank goodness for afternoon naps. Here’s a pic my friend and training buddy took yesterday. I love how focused he is— 8 weeks old.
