October 2012: Got into my maintenance range. Weight went back up at the end of the month due to the fair and DH's Birthday
November 2012: Above my maintenance range, but still working on things.
December 2012: Above my maintenance range. Went on a cruise.
January 2013: January 1 weight: 164 January 31 weight: 158.6 Above my maintenance range. Thyroid meds still off. Have been since the Summer, but getting better, as per Endo. Lowest weight in January 157.8.
February 2013: February 1 weight: 159.2 February 28 weight: 159.6 I was above my maintenance range throughout the month. Still working on things with the angio edema. I'm still having flare ups but I "feel" like things are getting better.
March 2013: I started March 1 at 160 on March 31 I weighed in at 159.4. I basically maintained for the month. I am not happy about that but it is better than a gain. Lowest weight in March was 157.2. Still working toward 150.
April 2013: I started April 1 at 161 on April 31 I weighed in at 158.2. I had a loss of 2.8 pounds. I feel that I have continued to maintain since my weight has been up and down all month and I have not gotten down to this year's low of 157.2 in March. Still working toward 150. I started taking the antihistamine twice a day this month. I had a 2+ pound gain overnight at the beginning of the month and woke to my left eye being almost swollen shut. I feel better since starting back to taking the antihistamine twice a day.
May 2013: I started May 1 at 158.2, on May 31 I weighed 159.8. The 3rd week of the month I changed my antihistamine. I changed to 1 Allegra AM and 2 Benadryl in the PM.
June 2013: Dr. increased my Synthroid meds again. She also advised me to start doing some yoga since I am still dealing with stress and it has continued to have a negative affect on my thyroid. I started June 1 at 159.8 and June 30 weighed 158.8. I had another month of maintaining, although, my goal is to start losing again.
July 2013: I started July 1 at 160, on July 31 I weighed 159. I maintained for another month, although my goal is to start losing again.
August 2013: I started August 1 at 159.6, on August 30 I weighed 159.4. I maintained for the month. On August 2 the Endo said that my thyroid meds were correct. She also said that it still might take a while for things to regulate.
September 2013: I started September 1 at 159.6, on September 30 I weighed 160.2. I am up on the scale a little, not what my goal is. The end of the month I had a significant angioedema flare up. I gained a few pounds from that and was trying to recover from it.
October 2013: I started October 1 at 159.6, on October 31 I weighed 159.2. I maintained my weight for another month. I had an abscessed tooth and needed a root canal done during the month. I took 1 round of antibiotics and it really bothered my stomach. I needed another round of antibiotics. This one started at the end of Oct. and will carry over into Nov. I don't seem to have the stomach issues with the new antibiotic.
November 2013: My goal was to maintain within a range since I had so many events during the month. I kept my calories consistently a little lower on nonevent days. I have also changed over to eating seafood at dinner rather than other protein sources.
December 2013: I tried to maintain my weight for December but I was not very successful. I also found out my thyroid meds are back out of range. The Dr. upped my Synthroid again. December 1, I weighed 165.6 and I weighed 170.4 on January 1.
January 2014: January 1, I weighed 170.4. January 31, I weighed 165.6. I lost some of my weight gain from the holidays.
February 2014: February 1, I weighed 164. February 28, I weighed 165.6. Not happy where this is going. Not sure about my thyroid. I had to cancel my Endo appointment due to insurance change. Rescheduled for June. Still working on things and doing my best.
March 2014: On March 1, I weighed 165.2. On March 31, I weighed 164.8. Down is down, right, LOL. Still trying.
April 2014: On April 1, I weighed 165. On April 30, I weighed 164.2. I am down .8. That's 1 pound in 2 months. Down is down, right? I also made an adjustment to my antihistamine/angioedema regimen half way through the month.
May 2014: On May 1, I weighed 164.4 on May 31 I weighed 167.4. I gained 3 pounds. Not a good month. Still working and trying to figure out what's going on. In June I will go back to the Endo to see about my thyroid meds. Still counting calories and working out daily.
June 2014: On June 1, I weighed 167, on June 30 I weighed 166.6. I had labs done. My thyroid meds are still too low and my Vitamin D levels are too low. Dr. increased my thyroid meds to 250 mcg per day and Vitamin D to 4000 IU.
July 2014: On July 1, I weighed 166.2, on July 31 I weighed 169.4.
August 2014: On August 1, I weighed 169.4. On August 30 I weighed 166.8. We went to an AYCE crableg dinner on August 30, so I am using August 30 as my final weigh in for the month. Also, on August 6 I stopped eating cruciferous vegetables. I want to see if that helps with thyroid issues since I eat a lot of them. This is the first time in a while that I saw weight loss. Not sure if that's from the added thyroid meds or from eliminating the cruciferous vegetables. Thyroid re-check will be in September.
September 2014: My weight stayed about the same for this month. My thyroid labs have improved some, but they are still not right. The Dr. did not want to change them since there is improvement. I am continuing to stay away from cruciferous vegetables and everything that is problematic to a thyroid patient.
October 2014: October 1, I weighed 167.2, October 31 I weighed 165.2. I started seeing some progress this month. I was actually a little lower but showed a gain from DH's birthday. Maybe things are started to regulate with my thyroid.
November 2014: November 1, I weighted 165.2, November 30 I weighed 168.8. The gain at the end of the month was due to Thanksgiving. My low for the month was 164.2. I did not bounce back into the 170's. Improvement?
December 2014: I started December 1 at 168.8. I went on a 10 day vacation starting at the end of the month. I didn't make any weight loss progress for the month. My goal was to try to maintain.
January 2015: First weigh in for January was 172.6, January 31, I weighed in at 171.4
February 2015: February 1 I weighed 171.2, February 28, I weighed 172.8. I had a gain for the month, but I'm still trying.
March 1, 2015 weigh in: 174.6 March 31 weigh in: 173.2
April 1, 2015 weigh in: 173.6 April 30 weigh in: 174.2
May 1, 2015 weigh in: 174 May 31 weigh in 174.4. TTOM was going on at the end of the month.
June, 1, 2015 weigh in: 173.4, June 30 weigh in: 173.6 My TTOM started toward the end of the month, so I had extra weight from that. I basically maintained for the month.
July 1, 2015 weigh in: 173.2, July 31 weigh in 172. I had a small loss for the month. I tweaked a couple things toward the end of the month. TTOM started at the end of the month, so I haven't been able to see much in regard to the tweaking that I made.
August 1, 2015 weigh in: 171.6, August 31 weigh in: 167. I HAVE FINALLY MADE SOME PROGRESS! I lost 4.6 pounds for the month! I tweaked things a little, not much. I'm not sure which tweak made the difference. I increased my workout time a little (15 minutes). I switched my coffee from sugar to sugar/stevia combo. I also switched from my morning juice to coconut water. The calories are the same in the juice/coconut water. The coconut water has a lot more potassium. Not sure which tweak helped maybe it was all of them together. Continuing with the same for September and see where it takes me.
September 1, 2015 I weighed 167, September 30, I weighed 164.8. I had a 2.2 pound loss for the month. My thyroid labs were off. Some numbers were hypo and others hyper. The Dr. lowered the Synthroid a bit but added in generic Cytomel. I'm not converting the Synthroid properly. We'll see how that goes. My female hormones were also in the range of a postmenopausal female and the Dr. was surprised that I was still having a regular TTOM. My last TTOM was mid August and I did not have one in September. I am obviously going through the change.
October 1, 2015 I weighed 164.8. On October 31, I weighed 165.8. My low for the month was 161.2. I had a gain at the end of the month due to celebrating DH's Birthday and going to the fair. I had thyroid labs done and my numbers are starting to improve.
November 1, 2015 I weighed 168.8 (weight was higher due to the fair and DH's birthday) On November 30 I weighed 165. We just celebrated our anniversary and had Thanksgiving, so my weight was up. My low for November was 161. I am happy that I got through 4 big events in October/November without bouncing back into the 170's.
December 1, 2015 I weighed 164.6. On December 31 I weighed 168.8. I had a low of 157.4 the day we left for vacation. I was thrilled to be in the 150's, now I need to work to get back to it since I know I can do it.
January 1, 2016 I weighed 169.2. On January 31 I weighed 168.4. I wasn't able to lose much of the vacation/Christmas gain. I had 2 TTOM's this month. I was on plan but the whole month was a struggle. Still working, though.
February 1, 2016 I weighed 167.2. On February 29 I weighed 167.4. That's a gain of .2, so basically I maintained. No progress on the Christmas vacation gain but I'm continuing to work on it.
March 1, 2016 I weighed 167.2. On March 31 I weighed 170.4. I had a gain at the end of the month from Easter. I didn't show much of a loss during the month, but mostly maintained.
April 1, 2016 I weighed 169.6. On April 30 I weighed 169.2. I basically maintained for the month. Still trying for the 150's.
May 1, 2016 I weighed 169.6. I didn't weigh in on May 31 due to being on a short Memorial weekend vacation. I did have a significant gain on this vacation.
June 1, 2016 I weighed 179.4. On June 30 I weighed 168.0. I had a significant gain from our Memorial weekend mini vacation. So, I spent the month getting rid of that gain and the gain from Father's day. In July I have a wedding, 4th of July weekend, and my birthday. I will try to enjoy these events in moderation (except for my birthday ) in order to keep my gain as small as possible.
July 1, 2016 I weighed 168.2. On July 31 I weighed 171.2. I had a wedding to attend, the 4th of July celebration, and my birthday. Too many events, but still working on things, not giving up.
August 1, 2016 I weighed 171.2. On August 31 I weighed 173.4. I showed a gain, but I am still working on things. Not giving up or giving in. Not an option.
September 1, 2016 I weighed 172.8. On September 30 I weighed 172.4. I basically maintained for the month.
October 1, 2016 I weighed 171.6. On October 31 I weighed 175. We went out to celebrate Teddy's birthday on the 30th and my TTOM started. Oh, joy! LOL
November 1, 2016 I weighed 175, on November 30 I weighed 174.6. I haven't made any progress, but at least I maintained through our Wedding Anniversary and Thanksgiving.
December 1, 2016 I weighed 174.6. I didn't weigh on December 31 due to being on vacation for 10 days. On January 1, 2017 I weighed 179.6. I had a 5 pound gain for the month.
January 1, 2017 I weighed 179.6, January 31, 2017 I weighed 175. I lost 4.6 pounds for the month.
February 1, 2017 I weighed 175, February 28, 2017 I weighed 175.8. I had 2 events this month and one of them was on the 25th. I had a .8 gain for the month. Still working on things.
March 1, 2017 I weighed 175.4, March 31 I weighed 177.2. I am not going in the right direction. I need to get things under control.
April 1, 2017 I weighed 176.6, on April 30 I weighed 178.8. Still going in the wrong direction.
May 1, 2017 I weighed 178.4. May 31 I weighed 184.6. Stress and poor choices getting to me. Still working on things, though.

I'm going to post my August daily weigh-ins here this month. Last month, I posted them in a thread that expected you to check-in every day which I'm not comfortable with. I like to make one post and edit it every day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
July was a very hard month for me. I stalled in the middle of the month and bounced around a lot towards the end of the month. I still somehow managed to reach my goal of 6 lbs lost. For August, I'm going to make a big goal of 8 lbs lost - 2 lbs per week - but I'll just be happy if I can get into Onederland.
SW: 203.8 lbs
GW: 195.8 lbs (-8)
August
1. 203.8 lbs (-1.0)
2. 203.2 lbs (-0.6)
3. 203.6 lbs (+0.4) (TOM) - TOM has finally made a painful appearance 2 days late. I feel bloated and very emotional. Cried at least 3 times already today and it is only noon.
4. 202.4 lbs (-1.2)(TOM) -
5. 203.2 lbs (+0.8)(TOM) - This was an expected gain. I went to Mankato Ribfest last night and had not only ribs but also a deep fried Snickers bar and a lemon ice. I went over calories but not by a lot (depending on how many calories the ribs were - never figured that out). Should lose this gain fairly quickly.
6. 203.0 lbs (-0.2)
Total Weekly Weight Loss: -2.2 lbs
Total August Weight Loss: -1.2 lbs
7. 202.6 lbs (-0.4)
8. 202.2 lbs (-0.4)
9. 202.2 lbs (0)
10. 202.2 lbs (0) - I was actually expecting a gain so I'm happy about this. I had Arby's for supper - chicken fingers and curly fries. Stayed under my calorie limit but figured the salt would cause a little gain.
11. 201.6 lbs (-0.6)
12. 201.8 lbs (+0.2)
13. 201.0 lbs (-0.8)
Total Weekly Weight Loss: -1.6 lbs
Total August Weight Loss: -2.8 lbs
14. 201.0 lbs (0)
15. 201.0 lbs (0) - I think this might be the start of my monthly stall. For the past 2 months, I stalled out at the same weight for at least 8 days in the middle of my cycle. It usually starts around the day I ovulate, which happens to be today. We'll see if I can get below 201 in the next few days. If not, I'm not going to worry about it since I know why I'm not losing.
16. 201.6 lbs (+0.6)
17. 202.0 lbs (+0.4) - I hate this time of month. I'm sticking to plan and exercising. I've been drinking a lot of water and not peeing it out so I'm sure this is water weight. Can't wait to get over this stall/gain - it's making me feel so fat and ugly.
18. DNW - Took both the 17th & 18th off from calorie counting. Ate at Baker's Square for supper last night and I'm sure I went over my calories. Today, I went to the county fair and had a ton of fried fair food, then had pizza for supper and way too many cookies for dessert. I'm going to take the weekend to recover and lose the water weight. Thus, I am not going to weigh-in until Monday.
19. DNW
20. DNW
Total Weekly Weight Loss: +2.0 lbs
Total August Weight Loss: -0.8 lbs
21. 203.0 lbs (+1.0) - Not too bad. Hopefully I can lose this gain quickly. Would love to get to 199 by the end of the week.
22. 201.0 lbs (-2.0) - Lost last week's gain quicker than I thought I would. 199 here I come!!
23. 200.8 lbs (-0.2)
24. 200.0 lbs (-0.8) - OMG, I'm so close to Onderland!
25. 200.0 lbs (0)
26. 200.4 lbs (+0.4) - It's going the wrong way. Probably because I had pizza for supper last night - darn salt.
27. 200.8 lbs (+0.4)(TOM) - I got my dates wrong and thought TOM was supposed to start next week. I'm a little bloated and I got pretty much no sleep last night.
Total Weekly Weight Loss: -2.4 lbs
Total August Weight Loss: -3.2 lbs
28. 200.6 lbs (-0.2)(TOM) - Not much of a loss but I'm extremely happy about this. I'm still very bloated plus I had KFC for supper last night and we all know how salty their chicken is. The loss is actually a pleasant surprise.
29. 199.8 lbs (-0.8)(TOM) - Whoop, there it is!! Onderland! I have to wait until next Monday before it's official but it's nice to finally see it on the scale.
30. 200.0 lbs (+0.2)
31. 198.8 lbs (-1.2) - Whoosh!!
August 1: 203.8 lbs

Total August Weight Loss: -5.4 lbs - Didn't quite make it to goal but I'm very happy about this loss.
*Weeks are changed to reflect my official weigh in day which is Monday.
July was a rough month for me and I didn't do as well as I had hoped. I am also getting very agitated with myself and all I have going on. I am determined to get back on the weight loss track.

Wow, Angie - Love those big, quick losses. You're starting the new plan off with a bang! Ubee - looks like you are crushing it this month! Diana - I love that you log even when you don't weigh in. Maybe I'll think of a way to do that as well. And CeeJay - looks like both you and I are putting effort into getting back to where we were at the beginning of the month! Ugh. Still. I'd rather fight a small regain than a huge one. This is maintenance, yes?
August 2017 Daily Weigh In Thread - Everyone Welcome!
I have to wait until next Monday before it's official but it's nice to finally see it on the scale.
