    Age 60, 5'4" [lost 1/2" somewhere, not the measurement I wanted to lose]
    SW 195 [joined MFP Nov 2015, lost 9.5# & got serious Jan 2017]
    1st Goal 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    2nd Goal 145 = normal BMI
    UGW Range 140 - 145

    My scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Comments reflect prior day. Previous round EW 161.0 LW 157.5
    R20 SW 166.0 10/20/17 (my round 1)
    R20 EW 166.5 LW 164.5
    R21 EW 164.0 LW 163.0
    R22 EW 162.0 LW 162.0
    R23 EW 162.0 LW 162.0 = included parade day & Thanksgiving (no food/drink logged)
    R24 EW 159.5 LW 159.5 = walked Jingle Bell 5K in 44:37 & pace 14:22 / first time in 10 years my weight is 1-5-anything!
    R25 EW 160.0 LW 158.0
    R26 EW 161.0 LW 157.5 = included Christmas (no food/drink logged) & several gatherings
    Round 26 (previous round)
    12/19: 158.0 Battling a cold, workouts on hold. At least Christmas decorations are almost done. Net calories red (barely), sodium green, fiber 20g & net sugar zero - how did that happen? 18c water. Fitbit 10,525 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 39 floors.
    12/20: 158.0 Net calories red, sodium green, sugar red mostly from fruit, fiber 20g, and 16c water / trying to flush my cold away. Workplace snowshoe hike at lunchtime / 0.42 miles. Fitbit 11,013 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 32 floors.
    12/21: 158.0 Little surprised / workplace Xmas party at lunch yesterday, then went overboard with Christmas peanut M&Ms while decorating at home. Still no workouts due to busy-ness and my cold. Fitbit 8,612 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 31 floors. Total guess for calories (did quick log instead of guestimating every bite) & 16c water.
    12/22: 157.5 Day off from work, finished cleaning & decorating. Gave in to leftover pizza hubby brought home, but limited myself to two slices. 14c water. Fitbit 7,696 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 15 floors.
    12/23: 157.5 Vacation/holiday, slept in, round trip by car 2 1/2 hours & niece's Christmas concert = sedentary afternoon. Wrapped presents in evening. Fitbit 8,753 steps, 250+ steps 8/14 hours & 16 floors. 12c water.
    12/24: 157.5 Little surprised I'm maintaining, have been getting into Christmas candy since 12/22. Stopped logging food last night after supper & net calories red. But keeping active with Christmas preparations. No "workouts" this week except shoveling snow and snowshoeing. Fitbit 7,703 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 25 floors. 10c water.
    12/25: 158.0 Christmas / dinner w/ extended family / not logging food or beverages / Merry Christmas friends!
    12/26: 159.5 Yesterday was a day filled with faith, family, fun, food & adult beverages. Totally worth it! Now, to freeze some of the goodies so we don't eat them all up this week.
    12/27: 160.0 Almost forgot to update...why are some habits so easy to break & forget? W-I not a surprise, have been enjoying Christmas goodies for several days & no treadmill since 12/15 oh my! Back at work, will get back to treadmill this week, I promise.
    12/28: 161.0 Happy hour with former colleagues / enjoyed adult beverage & dinner / net calories red even before I got into pistachios for evening snack...ack!!! 13c water. Fitbit 7,873 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 26 floors. Considering I'm 3# up during the week of Christmas, not so bad. Used to be lots worse in past years.

    12/29: 159.5 Net calories red & 12c water. Fitbit 9,124 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 34 floors. Getting back into my groove.
    12/30: 159.0 Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 51:07. Fitbit 13,675 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 25 floors. Registered for my third Badger State Brewing 10K (3/31).
    12/31: 161.0 Got into leftover Christmas goodies. 12c water. Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 50:31. Fitbit 12,434 steps, 250+ steps 914 hours & 11 floors.
    01/01: 162.5 Expected: New Year's Eve splurged with hubby on special treats all evening long and did not log food or beverages. I'm sure net calories were horrendously red. Totally worth it! :p And now it's out of my system. :D

    12/29….162
    12/30….161
    12/31….161
    1/1….163…. celebrations are done…..now to start over and start eating clean again, start tracking again, and start some type of exercise. After I lost 10 pounds after I joined MFP on January 1st last year I was able to keep it off until recently. Need to get back to my original and want to lose another 10 and keep it off…..of course more weight would be great but I want to maintain it and change my lifestyle more permanently so that I don’t keep having to lose the same pounds over and over again!!

    01/01: 160.8 :o Mind blown! I have been pushing fluids for several days. I am going to try to keep doing so. It is also tradition in my house to make greasy, scrumptious, finger foods to ring in the New Years. I did just that, but for me, I had the will power to skip it and make something healthy for me. I'm glad I did because it paid off! Happy New Years everyone! I'm hoping it's an amazing for each of you.

    Awesome!! You are an inspiration. Keep up the great work!

    Goal 140 by 2/17; UGW 130 by 6/30
    5'3", 64 yrs.
    Weight 2/2015 - 218
    Lost 68#, regained 12 (to 156) on metabolism reset 11/16-6/17.

    R26 end weight 12/28 - 149.2
    R27 goal 148

    12/29 - 149
    I've cut back on carbs the past couple of days. I don't plan to go too low - aiming for 40 net carbs/day - and about 90 grams protein, the rest good fats. I have to say that the fats are making me MUCH less hungry, so my calories are actually lower. New go-to breakfast -- half cup liguid egg whites microwaved with an ounce of aged Havarti cheese. YUM!

    12/30 - 148.8
    Moving the right direction - yay!

    12/31- 148.6
    This is a lovely surprise - not because I haven't been eating properly (I have), but last night my hubby made "fiesta chicken" with a seasoning packet (McCormick) and I almost couldn't eat it because of the salt. Holy sodium blast, Batman! I drank a ton of water all evening and knew I was retaining a lot of it, so I thought I'd be up this morning Yippee yay! (And no, he won't be buying any more seasoning packets without checking sodium!)
    HAPPY NEW YEAR, ALL!

    1/1 - 148.6
    I just realized I had a typo yesterday - I was down, not up. And there again today. Good start to a bright (if cold) new year.

    "Don't be upset by the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do." - Orebela Gbenga

    Start 10/18/2017 = 147.9 * Goal = 130.0 and 20 miles/week
    R22 * Start = 143.4 * Ave = 141.9 * Min = 140.2 * End = 141.2
    R23 * Start = 142.0 * Ave = 140.1 * Min = 139.4 * End = 139.6
    R24 * Start = 140.0 * Ave = 138.6 * Min = 137.0 * End = 137.0
    R25 * Start = 136.6 * Ave = 137.0 * Min = 135.8 * End = 135.8
    R26 * Start = 136.6 * Ave = 135.6 * Min = 134.8 * End = 136.0

    Round 27 Start = 135.4
    Mini-Goal: 5 consecutive days at or under 135.5 then I unwrap my "Under 135" box of workout clothes!!

    12/29 - 135.4 - Yesterday under calories and a workout. Left ankle a little sore, but I have only 3.25 miles to go to meet December running goals.
    12/30 - 135.4 - Yesterday under maintenance, no workout, ankle still sore.
    12/31 - 135.0 - Yesterday under maintenance, ran 3.5 to finish December run goals.

    1/1 - 135.6 - Yesterday 50 min elliptical, balanced by an unholy number of homemade lemon squares, way over! Happy New Year all, the journey continues!

    Happy New Year, everyone!

    OSW (4/25/17): 320.0
    R26SW: 265.4
    R27SW: 263.5

    Got a late start posting, as I’ve been on the road home through the Rockies for 3 days.

    12/29 - 263.5
    Starting my road trip today! My goal is to avoid all carbs during the drive.

    12/30 - 262.8
    Yay! I stopped a couple of hours into my drive to meet my aunt and her bestie for lunch. Both are really supportive of my journey and are on similar paths themselves. I was able to stick to just an ahi tuna steak, salad, and cauliflower mash for the meal, which set me up for most of the day! Stuck to protein-based snacks and stayed hydrated for the rest of the drive!

    12/31 - 261.0
    Awesome! I’m only 5 lbs away from my next goal, which is to lose 64 lbs; 20% of my starting body weight. And I only have about a 4-hour drive to get the rest of the way home. Can’t wait to see my man and my kitties!

    1/1 - 261.0
    Happy New Year! So happy to be home and able to sleep in my own bed again!

    If anyone cares to join a 2nd group for additional winter month accountability, I joined a winter challenge group today for the months of January - April. It would be awesome to see a familiar face. My second group to help me get through the holiday months is just wrapping up, and I needed something else. Weigh in is once a week. I just thought I'd share. :)

    I'm there, too, @nikki062181 ;-)
