01/28 392.2 (-1.0)
01/29 392.8 (+0.6) – Cheesecake factory splurge, not bad at all. Enjoyed it and back on track. Still drinking a lot of water today. A lot of salt and calories to wash out. I should be in the blue tomorrow.
01/30 392.4 (-0.4)

01/31 393.4 (+1.0) – Had too many nibbles and bites yesterday. Logging it all today but I still may have a gain. I am not sure how my weekend is going to go. Going out tomorrow to a play and dinner out. I am thinking of taking some grilled chicken to super bowl party Sunday so I will have something in case everything is fattening. I am supposed to bring a nice dessert which means fattening. SIGH. But I am good with desserts. It is the other stuff that derails my efforts. But I going to be focused over the weekend! I am going think next decade, next decade, next decade. I want to get into the next decade (389.8) by next Thursday! Have a great weekend Everyone! :flowerforyou:

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"

In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.

In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.

In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs

My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"

I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.

I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.

Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.

Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.

On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.

My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.

Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 – 173.4 – Met my goals today, but had a high sodium lunch. Scratchy throat - Hope I’m not coming down with another cold.
01/29 – 173.4 – Holding steady. Gorgeous sunny day, so I was hoping to walk at the beach. Lost my voice after teaching back-to-back classes, so I skipped the walk on the windy boardwalk, did a couple of quick errands, and headed home to make a pot of tea and do some grading. Fortunately, I don’t have any classes tomorrow. Well under my calorie limit and drinking lots of extra fluids. Hoping that and an early night help me get back up to speed quickly.
01/30 – 172.6 – Nice to see another drop bringing me back to where I started the last round. Felt great after my gym session this morning. However, my 2-hr training workshop this afternoon required a lot more speaking than I’d anticipated, so my voice is even more strained. I seriously need to rest it tomorrow. Met my calorie, hydration, and exercise goals. If I do a quick load of laundry tonight, it’ll be a clean sweep
01/31 – 172.6 – January was a challenging month, but I’m happy to be ending it at a slightly lower weight than I started. This was my first week of really utilizing the campus gym, and it’s gone well but has eaten up a lot of time. The key will be keeping it up as the semester gets busier. My voice is on the mend, helped by lots of herbal tea and a bit of honey. Skipped the wine tonight and made a simple dinner with berries for dessert, banking some calories for the weekend.

Started a very low calorie diet on Jan 17. I have ended each of the last 5 years heavier than I have ever been before. Have a very complicated, very unhappy relationship with food. Am hoping taking the thinking and choice out of it - by focusing on low-calorie ready meals - can help me get where I am trying to go.

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !

This round goal to just lose - aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking & refrain from attacking the cookie jar and left over Christmas chocolates – plan is to put them in DH lunch box each day 'til they're gone!! - there are still residual bits hanging around hubby will have finished them by end of this week!

Day/Weight/Comment

01/28 136 – 3.84 miles walked only yesterday – still off plan following loss of my Dad 3 days ago. Got my head together this morning & back in the game, hope to be able to get 9 mile walk in today in between phone calls, making arrangements etc. regarding Dads passing.
01/29 134.4 8.93 miles walked yesterday, good to be back on track, all macros and calories well in green. NSV – didn't turn to food when I was frustrated with red tape & bureaucracy regarding delay in issue of Dad's death cert to finalize funeral, in fact I didn't even realize that until this morning!!
01/30 134.4 – 11.52 miles walked yesterday, all calories & macros well in green. Finally caught up with all the posts, took me the last 2 days to catch up from the start of the round. Once again, thank you all for all your kind wishes and prayers, can't tell you enough how much this lifts me. This group is the best!
01/31 133.4 – 10.34 miles walked yesterday, calories & all macros in green. All Dad's funeral arrangements finalized albeit can't get fitted in for a further 4 ½ weeks !!?. Feeling less anxious now.
02/01 133.8 - 9.74 miles walked. Carbs 34 over, but calories & all other macros in green. Come away for a weekend in our caravan for a chilling weekend, we're near to our DD & will be seeing our brand new baby grandson & his cute brother later today 😊 .

Hi. My name is Trina.

I'm looking forward to a great 10 days with all of you! I let the holidays get to me in the end and put on a few pounds, which I am working on getting back off. Goal weight is 10 pounds away! I'm excited to reach it sometime this year!!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 138.5 -- A bit irritated. Yesterday was a good day, so no idea where this came from. Frequently, I guess I have a drop, bounce up and then go down to stay....but this still annoyed me!
01/29 138 -- Wishing it was better than this! Good day yesterday and I'm sticking to plan!
01/30 138 -- At least it isn't going up. Feeling a bit low energy yesterday and today.
01/31 137.5 -- I was really hoping the holiday weight gain would just come right back off. Sadly, it seems it wants to be a bit more stubborn than that. On the other hand, I'm only 5 pounds up since the start of chemotherapy, and the mastectomy before that. And my clothes still fit, and I'm feeling pretty healthy. And those 5 pounds mean I don't have to worry about maintenance for some time still. So I'm settling back into the it's a journey, not a destination. Glad to be on this journey with all of you!

At the moment I'm working on having a calorie deficit diet and portion control. Hope to incorporate more exercise.

01/28 - 169.2
01/29 - 168.5 - ~1400cals and hardly any snacking. Will try to work on moving more.
01/30- 168.4 ~1400 again and no exercise but my smartwatch should be arriving soon and will hopefully motivate me. With little ones it just gets so busy or am I just making excuses.
01/31 - 168.2 ~1600cals. Ended up having chicken pie for dinner as hadn't prepped anything Sleep: 6hr32mins. Steps: 5000
02/01 - 168.2 I do think my scales are playing up though I got a few different weights this morning. 168.0-168.4. Started the treadmill even though it was for a measly 15 minutes but still a start. Ate around ~1700cals so need to rein that in if I want to see significant losses.

Goal every round is to get that average down by any number but seeing 145 would definitely make me do a happy dance (how many calories does that burn?)

R101 Average- 148.1
R102 Average- 147.0

1/28- 148

This round is just a place holder, I’m not going to report daily weight because there will be planned carb spikes and quick drops. I’ll be happy to just be under 150 at the end.

2/1- still just hanging out while my scale goes wild with TOM and mini carb spikes. My body is responding exactly as predicted, it’s not too bad.
Monday is my planned high weigh in to be followed by 16 weeks of training for my 10k obstacle course run and my final weigh in.

01/28 137 today I will track my calories and go back to the simple dishes. Too much sugar over the past week. I must get this done. I don't need so much food. My body is not so tall and it doesn't feel good. I feel heavy and bloated.

01/29 135. Stayed on track. Day 2 of staying on track. I can do it. All I have to do is plan my meals 😊 and fill up in veggies.

01/30 134 day 3 of staying on track. With very little sugar too. Logged everything. I was a bit sad so maybe that's why I didn't feel like eating 😔 I shouldn't be sad. Yes, things could be better but they also could be very worse. I'm going to be positive today and remember the good.

02/01 134.8 oops. This is what salty fries and ice cream does. Back to the 1200 today. And back to the elliptical finally.

SW: 145.5

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 - 145.5 - I'm a little surprised I'm still up a half pound from last week, but maybe it's from starting the planking. I can definitely feel the muscles burning even though I'm only holding for 20 seconds.
01/29 - 145 - OK, back to last week's weight.
01/30 - 145.5 - I will continue to weigh and log my food daily as I have done most of this month and believe that I will eventually get back below 145. Someday...sigh.
01/31 - 145.5 - Someday...
02/01 - 145.5 - I ended up having an extra carby, sodium filled supper last night, so I'm just glad that didn't hit me this morning. In the meantime, while I wait for my body to catch up with my diet, I'm going to join a challenge for planking. At least that way if the scale isn't moving, I'll feel like I'm accomplishing something.

February goal: 189
10 day goal: Lose 2-3 lbs and keep sodium and sugar intake under control

I am so ready to go again! I see my doctor on Tuesday to discuss my weight loss, so I will be able to check how accurate my scale has been and find out if I have been approaching my macros the right way. Looking forward to reading about everyone else’s weight loss/management experience, too!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28: 198.6 Kept under sugar and sodium intake yesterday. I am eager to see what my doctor says today about my efforts!
01/29: 202.0 Sadly it turns out my scale was off by 4 lbs. Still have more work to do! On the bright side, my doctor was thrilled by the STILL SIGNIFICANT weight loss and the changes in my diet, so she was very encouraging about continuing my efforts. I have a new scale now to mark my progress!
01/30: 201.5 See? No worries! I ate well yesterday, I know now that I am losing weight consistently.
01/31: 201.4 I was hoping for a bigger drop, considering how well I kept under my sugar, sodium, and carbs, but at least I have a scale that is consistent now. I stepped on it twice and it showed me the same number.
02/01: 200.4 Yay! I will see the 190s again soon!!

172.6 starting weight for round 103

Day/Weight/Comment

01/28 172.6
This year I saw numbers I never believed I'd see again. I'm back below the obesity mark and intend to stay. Ten years ago I promised myself no birthday or gastric bypass "surgiversary" would find me obese again. I'm revising this to overweight.
Only 28lbs separate overweight and obese and 33lbs a solid normal 24 BMI and obese. Going forward overweight per the charts is no longer acceptable to me.It's not about the charts. I experience changes with even small shifts in body fat.
This round I want to reduce blood pressure and heart rate. I'll only achieve this in the 160's and below. I'll lose as much as I can this round. Low carb, fasting, & fat burning exercise will get me there.
01/29. 173.2.
As much as I hate seeing the scale go up I'm comforted with the knowledge that I weighed in with a belly full. When I weigh at my heaviest time of day I've got a built in psychological cushion.
Yesterday and today where planned totally free days. Yay me, I fasted over 18hrs yesterday and maintained calorie control both days. This fasting/ restricted eating protocol helps me with appetite control. It's a big plus that I've come to enjoy it. No hunger and it just feels right. My appetite returns when it's time to eat usually after 16-18hrs.
01/30. 171.6
I'm praying I'll be in the 160's before my next medical in a couple of weeks. Today's eating has been nutritional crap giving me three days of high sodium, sugar & flour.
The sodium is no issue when balanced with sufficient potassium. I'm all good once I'm eating my greens again. Sugar and flour are my personal kryptonite. It's going to take the weekend for me to get these out of my system.
Fingers crossed, the weekend recovery period will win me a pound or two of water weight loss. I'm back on low carb and watching my water intake.
Getting enough is easy for me. My problem is getting too much then needing diuretics. I've been warned but the sipping habit is hard to break. Beverages are a great substitute when I want to nibble.

No time to read this thread over the last few days but I'll catch up this weekend. Wishing you all well and thanks for all of your much needed support.

01/31. 172.2
I've been mis behaving terribly leaving me feeling bloated and cranky. Once again calories low and macros crap. I really have to haul @$$ to drop the water weight over the weekend. My scrambled brain is overwhelmed making food an afterthought. That keeps the calories down but instead I eat what's easy instead of what's good.

1/28/20 -171.5 I went to the gym last night. Slightly over calorie goal but satisfied.
1/29/20 - 171.7 Well, I was under my calorie goal yesterday however my dinner did consist of mostly "healthier" options from McDonald's. I'll be going to the gym tonight.
1/30/20 -171.7 I reallyyyyy didn't want to go to the gym last night but I did. Disappointed to not even see a tiny decrease. Oh well. Today is another day.
1/31/20 - 172 Very disappointed again but not discouraged. Going to keep trying! I'm on Day 6 of Intermittent Fasting and was expecting to see some weight loss but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Even with keeping my calorie intake around 1350.
2/1/20 - 171.7 My body must really like this weight. I stayed under my calories yesterday, intermittent fasted, and went to the gym. I’ve NEVER went to the gym on a Friday!

OSW 382.0
RSW 261.6

Goal for this round: Get into the 250’s, I need to break out of this bounce rut I’ve put myself in.

01/28 261.6 I was hopeful of a drop, but not surprised I didn’t have one, I have a lot of inflammation again this morning. In addition, my back and leg have been hurting me and I just can’t get them to let up. On the plus side of things though I’ve been staying on track the last few days so I don’t have that adding to things.

01/29 261.4 My back finally let up yesterday after I spent some time on my exercise bike. I have no idea why that helped when walking, pain killers, message, and muscle rub didn't, but I'll have to keep it in mind for next time.

01/30 261.0 I’m slowly but surely getting back to my previous low.

01/31 260.4 And that’s finally back down to my previous low. Now to see some new lows. I happily noticed that even with the bounce up I lost a little over 9 pounds this month and I’m fairly pleased by that. Also my husband has decided that he wants to be back on board with losing weight and his food choices and I’m hopeful that will help.

02/01 259.0 There I go with a new low. Now to stay on track.
