[Round 57
Please join us! Starting on 10/25 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 57
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

Do you drink dandelion tea? I drink it intermittently throughout the fall and winter months. I started drinking it four years ago to aid liver function.

I've been yoyoing weight loss but I really want to stick to it this time. I never utilized the forums for accountability, but I will now. I'm not at my highest weight but I just got back into the weight loss journey again last week. I weighed in at 186.2 lbs at the start. My current weight is 182.5 lbs and my goal weight it 140 lbs.6 -

Yall let me tell you how inconsistent I am and how much your eating habits effect your weight. I did round 55 ~10 days ago my ending weight was 192.8......being off work for a week and obviously did not meal prep, did not track my food, and didnt really give much thought I ate. Well if im being honest, I was usually really good for breakfast/lunch then got the munchies come dinner and over did it. Then BA BAM this AM I weighed in at 202! I hope most of it is water weight and will come off (because yesterday i was 205) but still. So anyway here I am again, back at work, and feeling sluggish and bloated. Goal for this week 5/5 workouts (already completed 2/5) and EATING BETTER. Going to gym isn't my issue, I love the gym. I also really really love food. *Sighs* I'm going to try keto again. So if anyone has links to good keto meal prep recipies drop the link below....bc I also did not meal prep for this week (*eye roll emoji*)

@iLadyT, There is an app called Daily Keto Diet. It has recipes, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, drinks photos of every recipe and the macros. I have not used any of the recipes. When I started keto, I downloaded a lot of recipe apps and that's the only one I kept, the recipes look that good.

thanks checking it out now!3 -
@iLadyT, @quiltingjaine, Personal pan pizza w/keto breadsticks, keto cheeseburger muffins, keto broccoli cheddar biscuits. Yummy. Why is everything I just mentioned involve "bread" Lol
I do miss bread. A nicely browned roll or croissant, pumpernickel. Once in a while on special occasion, I will eat a roll if offered and it meets my specs😂 Thankfully, after eating it I don't spin out of control.2 -

Back for round 3 for me. I'm going to continue doing yoga with Adriene's 30 days of yoga challenge. I'm also going to try and increase my daily steps, and incorporate more strength training into my week. I will also be trying to get enough fiber (at least 25g).6
-
I'm in! Eagerly waiting for this one to start after taking a few rounds off. Thanks for keeping this going!7

I'm in! First timer! Trying to get back on track for the last bit iff the year. I joined the Christmas Eve challenge also and this will be a good start

@bubblegum2fitness I am doing that too. I use to hate yoga because I thought it was a waste of time, where you could be doing "real" exercise and burn "real" calories, rather then sitting around and shifting positions..i mean isnt that what stretching is for??...but now I love it. I really didn't think I was as stiff as I was until I started yoga and my flexibility has increased greatly, while my muscles have become less and less sore. I ❤ her..she not only knows her stuff but has something for all levels of fitness.3

I just did the math and if my weight continues at the pace it is, I will be 139 by my 29th birthday. I think I will set my goal for at least 135 but I will take whatever I get and work for it. I feel like I slowed down because I finished my first goal and now have been just trying to loose weight...I am hoping making a new goal will kick me into high gear5

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

I’m getting really close to maintenance weight. However, with the holidays coming up, I’d like to drop a few more pounds to give me some breathing room when I inevitably eat and drink too much.

I am a 50 year old 5'5" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.
I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. On the other hand when I look at the big picture and the averages it has been a consistent loss except for two rounds. Round 53 was my 50 birthday celebrations that upped my weight for a few days.
I need to step up my game if I want to meet any of my goals.
