I'm impatient to get below 130. 10 days to 129.9. 10 days is achievable for a serious effort. 10 days of no eating out, meeting for drinks, or eating the office junk food. Wish me luck and good luck to you! Day 1/10 is off to a good start.

This is my first round! After reading the comments, I am really excited to see what I learn about myself over the next 10 days. Thank you @quiltingjaine for this! I am getting married on September 23 and just want to feel good on that day. Healthy habits tend to put me in a better head space. I've lost and gained the same 40 lbs 3 times now, I am determined for this to be the last time I need to do that.

Welcome, @cath_loves_to_run & @potasha!

I'm Amanda, back again for another round. I'm 5'2", 38F in Virginia.

SW Round 234: 127.4
GW Round 234: 126.0
Setting some non-scale goals as well:
work out 9/10 days
track food 6/10 days
drink 64oz of water 10/10 days

8/30: 127.4 - My DH is on an alcohol-free kick and it's so helpful to me. We are chief enablers of each other. I'm significantly less likely to have a drink if he isn't and I'm sure the reverse is true. We haven't gone many consecutive days without a drink in a LONG time. I'm cautious about setting hard and fast rules around it in the event that I rebel really hard against myself, so I am just going to take it a day at a time. Today will be alcohol-free for sure, as were the past two nights. I tracked my intake yesterday and it's definitely *much* easier to stay in range when I don't have to add any alcohol calories!!

Today I'll track again. My plan was to strength train today but I slept wrong somehow and my shoulder feels awful. I will probably pivot to yoga or mobility training instead. I hope it doesn't hurt for too long and interfere with my half marathon training. We're coming down to the wire - September 17th!

I'm sorry about your partner's cancer and so happy it's been resolved! I love IF too and try to do 16:8 most days as well.

Surprised I’m down since I was over my calorie goal. All good. It’s a cool, gloomy morning here, no rain in the forecast but we’re completely overcast. Good day for a walk, though, so off I go.

Day, Weight, Comment
8/30 - 152.3 - I behaved well yesterday and the scale shows it. Nearly 2 lbs dropped off overnight. I knew at least 1lb was bloat but it's nice to see it drop in the lower 152 range. Now to keep that up. I'm not sure if I want to adjust my goal to 151.x or not. I think I will and adjust back up to maintenance (152.x) as needed once we get closer to the end and I know more what this round will hold as far as surprises and unexpected changes to diet/exercise. The plumbing for the tub and therefore the tub/shroud will be installed today for the guest bathroom. BF can then work on installing and floating drywall tonight into the weekend. Hopefully we'll (read: I will) be painting this weekend so we can finalize everything before Monday. We got a great deal on tile and flooring for our master bathroom so we spent the last of the loan on that (the majority of the loan went towards those unexpected legal fees so we're now nickel-and-diming our master bath remodel). With prices increasing seemingly daily, we didn't want to wait as those were the two most expensive items on our bathroom remodel list. We kept it under $1,000 for the entire flooring and all the tiling we think we'll need. Plenty of manual labor around the house to keep me active and busy!

8/30 162.5 - Walked 1 mile in the morning, 20 min bike ride at lunch, and 64 oz of water today. I'm trying to keep my carbs under 50g as I've been experiencing stomach pains, mostly likely connected to how much sugar I've been eating lately. I'm expecting to drop weight quickly at first due to the near-constant bloating I usually have. Even if it's just water weight and not actually fat loss, the pain relief will be worth it.

Round 234

MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
ROUND 191 FOR ME.

“Today….I am choosing Me”

MY STATS:

Highest weight ever (05-10-2016): 253
Original starting weight on MFP: (01-11-2018) 235.0
R233 EW= 191.8
R234 EW= TBD

Current New Goals:
Weight:
Short Term Goal: To weigh less at the end of this round than I did at the end of the last round.
Final goal: 145-155. We’ll see how I look & feel when I get there.
Exercise: Move 30 minutes per day rotating activity.

Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 4 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.

COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain.Black is no change.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/29 …..191.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

08/30 -192.2- (Trend weight 195.6) I’m not sure why the scale jumped up. A fluctuation I suppose. My diet was very much on point, however, the exercise was non-existent so maybe that’s it. Trend weight has been going down dramatically each day so that is a good sign of my efforts. I travel tomorrow to see the endocrinologist for my diabetes. Lunch will be out and I am craving Chicken Alfredo. Pasta is something I don’t get to eat often on my plan. I realize the scale will not like it the following day (Friday) but I don’t think there will be any lasting damage as I plan to have a clean eating weekend. I will also strive to come home and make good choices for my dinner or snacks. I do not need to blow the whole day and eat stupid *kitten* late into the night just because I had a little pasta! It’s a plan!
Good luck everyone this round. I’m rooting for you all. I know how hard you are working and you DESERVE to reach your goals. They are not merely dreams!

Weds.30.08:
3 days into using MFP and actually logging and planning everything. I’m hitting my calorie goal, and even though it feels like I’m eating A LOT the scale is moving in the right direction, so something must be going right. Struggling so much with getting the macros in the right place. I tend to go over with fats, but I think I see some places I can make changes in next weeks meal plan to get everything more in line. Hopefully.
Didn’t get a morning workout in today, I’ll do a longer one in the afternoon. I’ve actually made my own 12 week workout plan, and I think I overestimated my abilities. My body is so sore and I’m only on the third day! For the sake of consistency, I might cut down to 1 workout per day for this challenge, and then start back at the beginning of the plan doing the two per day. It’s meant to be circuit training in the morning and cardio in the afternoon most days, but I really didn’t realise how unfit I’ve become. It’s defeating and motivating at the same time.
Thurs.31.08:
The scale’s still moving in the right direction despite no exercise yesterday. We ended up getting crazy afternoon storms so I didn’t get out for a walk. Overslept again this morning, I’ve gotten in the terrible habit of sleeping in since my partner has been working at home. He used to leave at 5am to catch the train which would wake me. Now I’m not waking up until around 7, even if I set an alarm, I half wake up to turn it off and go back to sleep. So frustrating! But sticking to my meal plan and the 8 hour window has been a breeze – so my diet’s on track. It’s important to remember that this isn’t all or nothing, and that progress in one area still counts even if I don’t progress in another area. And to just take everything one day at a time.

Hello! I am 54, 5'9" and am making a switch from Weight Watchers to MFP. I just started today and found the challenge making the switch even better! My goals for the 10 days are to track, be active in some way each day and drink at least 64 oz of water.

8/30 Today went well. I am in a 484 caloric deficit with a 2.5 mile walk in 34 mins.

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 6 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

I'm back for another round. I learned quite a bit about myself in the last round. Time to put that knowledge to use and continue learning on this path to becoming healthier.

SW Round 234 - 341
GW Round - 336

8/30 - 335.4

This is the reason right here. Man it felt amazing to step on the scale this morning and see that number. I knew going into this that it was going to be a long slow process. But each victory is huge no matter what it is. Work was extremely stressful today. I found myslef storming through my kitchen looking for chocolate, anything chocolate... Instead of grabbing the bag of reeses cups (my favorite) I started thinking about that number on the scale this morning. Now I don't want my life to revolve around the scale, but did I want to devour a bag of those reese cups because I was actually hungry or was it because I was just very stressed? When I paused to think about it I realized I wasn't hungry. With that realization ringing in my head I took a minute to just breathe. I focused on just breathing deep. After about 5 minutes I no longer felt the need to inhale the reeses cups. It was a huge victory in my world today. After that even the stress at work couldn't get me down. I was singing and dancing for the last few hours of my workday. I work from home so no one had to listen to me. lol. But that one moment was changed my mood for the rest of the day.
