i like this and pre-logging is also a good idea - thank you !

[Jotex]

@marge8ac - I don’t know if it’ll help you, but I log all my food on my iPhone using the Myfitnesspal App. I log a lot of my activity (exercise) there, too. 

Opps, sorry for reposting. Had to correct a typo AND add my weekly update. 😇

Although my weight is the same as a week ago (still below 68, though!), Trendweight has me -.2 kg (lighter). I like that! Forward march! If the prediction is accurate, I’ll reach my goal weight a day before my birthday!

Hi Jotex, you are doing great with your fitness goals! Thanks for the advice and inspiration - I don't have a smartphone, though, so I go about things like logging with paper and computers. I log on Fitbit. I used to use LoseIt! which synced with my Fitbit Zip, but they started charging an annual fee that doesn't work with my budget. I've done better this week than usual with logging, and will try to keep improving and hope to see a weigh loss when I weigh  in tomorrow. I'm also doing more yard work and am practicing a clogging dance to perform with my class the end of May 🙂

Good Morning,

• is there a way to just make a post in this discussion without connecting a reply to a previous post? just curious - thanks! i'm still trying to figure the discussion boards out. also, it's hard for me to find the most current posts - the view for me defaults to older posts.

here is my weekly weigh-in:  

Start weight 265 lbs (8/1/2008)

Now 210.1 lbs (4/23/2018)

Goal 150 lbs

GAIN this week 0.2

Loss to date 54.9 lbs

Next Mini goal 195 lbs

i will continue to do better at logging and moving more !! have a great week, everyone 🙂

[BillyD3711]

I gave up trying to figure this out. I’m hoping to see a response to your inquiry.

What you trying to figure out @BillyD3711?  Pick a format that works for you (whether it's a long list or just last week's numbers, what your goals are, etc) and stick to it.  I always just find my previous post, copy the text then click reply and paste it in there.  Then I edit my numbers and add a personal ditty.  That's my way...

[tamado]

Start 265 lbs 09/27/2015

158.6 04/16/2018

158.6 04/22/2018

Maintenance mode
Loss Range 105 lbs +/- 5 lbs (target 155-165)

Still off the booze and feeling pretty good.  I got my aria 2 scale and I like it.  It's reporting my BF between 8 and 13% so hopefully it will settle in and be consistent once I'm measuring for a while.  I feel like between 10 and 13 is probably correct for me.

I am also amazed at how much not drinking is affecting my resting heart rate.  It feels good to add this the list of changes I've been making in my life to live healthier.

[Jotex]

@marge8ac - congrats on your weight loss to date! Whoop!!! 

About the posts @marge8ac and @BillyD3711,  I’ve ticked the box below my comment to get an email when someone replies. {Yes, I have to regularly delete a whole bunch; but reading everyone’s posts throighout the day / week keeps me motivated.} When I’m ready to post a comment myself, I click on the most recent post in the discussion thread.

I also do what @tamado does in that I find my most recent post, highlight and copy it all, then hit reply and paste it in and edit to current numbers. I probably got the idea from @tamado or @Baltoscott. 😇

[Jotex]

@tamado - I’m glad to hear you’re happy with your Aria 2. Did you have the first Aria? Just curious as I’m already thinking of upgrading. 

[BillyD3711]

Thanks for the advice.
Bill

Only lost -7/10 of a pound this week doing a -250 calorie a day deficit. Though it was more around -750/-500 a day so I probably should have lost a bit more, but I also had a pretty hectic weekend and did not eat at my normal times, so maybe that has something to do with it. I think I am going to switch weighing in on Friday, since my eating and diet is much more consistent Monday - Thursday.  

Week 1 -750 daily deficit

Week 2 -500 daily deficit

Week 3 -250 daily deficit

Week 4-5 +0 daily deficit->Current

Week 6 start another 12 week cut at -750 daily deficit

During the weekend, we had a reunion of ex-colleagues from 30 years ago in Brussels, where one of us lives. We had a fantastic time, but the number on the scale wasn’t pretty upon return yesterday:

How to gain 2.5 kg (5.5 lbs) in just 3 days, call me binging king 

On a positive note, I’m the one with the flattest belly among the guys in our group (I wear a blue T-shirt, second from left):

Anyway, here are my numbers for the past week (including average step count and energy expenditure):

Week 0, ending 18-Dec-17: 60.2 kg (13.0%), 11.2k steps, 2523 cal.

Week 1, ending 25-Dec-17: 60.5 kg (13.4%), 5.9k steps, 2390 cal. -> +0.23 kg

Week 2, ending 1-Jan-18: 60.6 kg (13.6%), 14.0k steps, 2629 cal. -> +0.17 kg

Week 3, ending 8-Jan-18: 61.1 kg (13.6%), 16.2k steps, 2887 cal. -> +0.49 kg

Week 4, ending 15-Jan-18: 61.7 kg (13.8%), 17.9k steps, 2932 cal. -> +0.54 kg

Week 5, ending 22-Jan-18: 62.3 kg (14.4%), 10.3k steps, 2731 cal. -> +0.64 kg

Week 6, ending 29-Jan-18: 62.1 kg (15.0%), 11.4k steps, 2536 cal. -> -0.27 kg

Week 7, ending 5-Feb-18: 62.4 kg (15.4%), 13.1k steps, 2742 cal. -> +0.34 kg

Week 8, ending 12-Feb-18: 63.0 kg (15.5%), 13.9k steps, 2926 cal. -> +0.60 kg

Week 9, ending 19-Feb-18: 63.5 kg (15.8%), 11.7k steps, 2714 cal. -> +0.56 kg

Week 10, ending 26-Feb-18: 63.8 kg (16.0%), 14.5k steps, 3028 cal. -> +0.26 kg

Week 11, ending 5-Mar-18: 63.9 kg (16.7%), 17.6k steps, 3026 cal. -> +0.11 kg

Week 12, ending 12-Mar-18: 63.5 kg (16.4%), 12.4k steps, 2622 cal. -> -0.47 kg

Week 13, ending 19-Mar-18: 63.8 kg (16.2%), 14.2k steps, 2868 cal. -> +0.33 kg

Week 14, ending 26-Mar-18: 63.6 kg (16.4%), 14.0k steps, 2851 cal. -> -0.20 kg

Week 15, ending 2-Apr-18: 63.8 kg (16.4%), 16.3k steps, 2870 cal. -> +0.20 kg

Week 16, ending 9-Apr-18: 63.7 kg (16.5%), 15.1k steps, 2977 cal. -> -0.09 kg

Week 17, ending 16-Apr-18: 63.8 kg (16.4%), 17.0k steps, 2864 cal. -> +0.10 kg

Week 18, ending 23-Apr-18: 65.1 kg (16.4%), 17.0k steps, 2864 cal. -> +1.33 kg

The gain was mitigated by my use of a weekly average, but it’s still 1.3 kg, way more than the plan (goal: +0.25 kg).

I am 5'10"...

Starting weight: 194.9 (3/19/18)

Middle weight: 184.7 (4/5/18)

Current weight: 177.1 (4/24/18)

I feel great, and I can honestly say it has been a long time since I've felt that way.  I thought I would miss certain foods, but I don't. For me, keeping my calories around 1,500 - 1,700 has worked best in my head, while increasing my exercise. It is easier for my to plan for the day when I know I have a certain budget. to work with. I have an occasional glass of red wine I work into my budget or if we have pizza for dinner, I know two slices will cost me 700ish and will plan my breakfast and lunch, as well as my exercise, around that so I have enough calories to eat at the end of the day. I haven't felt deprived, which is important for me.

Today, I was going to wear a high waisted  black skirt with this cropped shirt but it was too big  (a size 12) so I opted for a pair of high waisted black skinny pants (size 8!) that I hadn't been able to wear in over a year and a half.  A couple months ago, a size 12 in skirts/10 in jeans was almost too tight for me but I refused to by bigger clothes. Now I am probably a 10 in skirt/8 pants and down at least a cup size. Sometimes I don't see the changes in myself when I look in the mirror but I notice when clothes fit me differently.

[Bionicwoman71]

Great work. I'm a little over 5 ft 8 and Im at 165 right now.

[marge8ac]

Thanks, you too! what are your current goals - are you maintaining weight now?

[Bionicwoman71]

no I am trying to get down to 155 or 156 and stop there. I am trying to lose about 10 more pounds then Im done.

[Bionicwoman71]

then I have to focus on maintenance which is the hardest part. I want to make sure I don't regain this weight again.

[marge8ac]

sounds great!!  i appreciate you sharing - it inspires me to keep going - thank you
