    Oct 26th:

    Successes/struggles: We were away again for a few days last week, too much high calorie food, not enough fruit and veg, but I'm still in my maintenance range. I think that's just about the last of the holidays for a few months, more of the country is going back into lockdown for the winter. We are booked to go to North Wales in early November but that looks increasingly unlikely.

    It will be a case of hunker down for the winter. Best wishes to you all.

    @mtaratoot - beautiful mushrooms! What do you plan to cook with them?
    @kgirlhart - Congratulations on the new job! Best of luck to you.

    I was lazy today and just made a chanterelle omelet. I cleaned and cooked the lobster mushroom; it smelled really good. I sorted all the chanterelles, and I cooked a bunch. Some went in an omelet, the rest in the fridge. I might make a rare batch of my mushroom soup. For sure I will simply saute a bunch, freeze them, and vacuum seal them for use the rest of the year.

    I'm going out again tomorrow with a neighbor. I'm looking for boletes, hedgehog, and lobster. If all we find is chanterelles, she can have all of mine. Unless we find too many, then I'll keep my share. I can use them for baked fish, for toppings on a steak, for dressing/stuffing, for eggs, for shepherd's pie, and.... all year long! It's why I just cook them in butter with no other seasonings - I can adjust that depending what I'm making. I've even used it in cornbread. It also makes a nice gift. I've already given some away to very thankful friends who don't get out in the woods anymore.

    Success/Struggles:
    My body has been trying to get me to eat more. Kind of like a bear heading into winter. It’s like I enjoy fall flavors and foods WAY too much, but so far I’ve been able to splurge here or there then go back into a deficit to balance it out so no worse for wear. There’s something about the seasons changing this time of year that makes me goofy, so hopefully this year I can navigate it successfully without putting a bunch of the weight back on. As long as I keep logging and exercising it helps me keep everything top of mind and I don’t wander too far off the reservation!

    Total Weight lost: 35 kg
    Time it took to lose: 12 months
    How long in maintenance: Since April 2016 - but gained 10 kg March-May 2020 after massive trauma combined with COVID-19.
    Maintenance weight range: 65-75 kg (not sure what’s the right answer - been up and down in there numerous times in my life, apart from going way over 2010-2015).

    I’d like to lose a bit to get back to 70 kg, but I’m still happy at around 75 kg.

    I’m experimenting with seeing how my satiety levels are in relation to the types of foods I eat. Trying to eat more whole foods, which I’ve been getting pretty good at, and less sugar, and it’s going quite well.

    Weekly averages checking day for me is Sunday.

    Hi! My name is Kristen. And I struggle to maintain my weight. I have had great success losing/gaining, but I'm hoping this group helps me be more accountable. I weigh only 1x week on Sundays, so that's when I'll check in. My 2 goals in 2020 are to not let the scale go above 153 and weigh in EVERY Sunday for the WHOLE YEAR. This seems easy to most, but I get lazy and make excuses why I don't need to weigh in and then all of a sudden everything in my closet has shrunk. LOL

    Successes/Struggles: We leave for vacation Friday! Only 4 days of work to get thru! I'm pretty proud of the fact that I'm going on this vacation only 0.9lbs heavier than I did 1 year ago, still 1.1lbs less than my bottom goal weight range. Without logging or calorie restriction. I've learned a lot this year about how to maintain my weight.

    Hope everyone has a great week.

    Total weight lost: About 43 pounds
    Time it took to lose: 1 year and 2 months
    How long in maintenance: I hit my goal weight in the beginning of January 2018, but officially started maintenance in mid-March 2018 after figuring out my calories for a couple of months.
    Maintenance weight range: 108-112.5

    Oct 18: 111.7 (trend 111.8)
    Oct 25: 112.2 (trend 112)

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: My weight crept up a bit higher again this week, but I did have a few high sodium meals out so I'm not concerned yet. My activity levels weren't quite as high in the previous couple of weeks, and I missed one of my "stairs" workouts inside my apartment complex this week due to being super busy with work stuff. That also affected my normal workouts as well, as I was rushing to get through them to get back to dealing with work issues, and wasn't putting in much effort.

    Average weight Week ending:
    10/4: 167.2
    10/11: 164.2
    10/18: 164.5
    10/25: 163.0
    10/31:

    Success: Clearly I declared maintenance too early and am still losing at a slow and steady rate. There is still more subcutaneous fat around my belly and thighs to lose, so why not keep going in an easy, no pressure way. When I originally picked my "number" it was relatively arbitrary. It was a weight that I had previously achieved and felt comfortable in, but didn't realize that I had the ability to keep going, so why not keep going? Only downside is that the size 10 clothing I bought is starting to get a little loose. :)

    Struggles: Not really a struggle, but this was the last week of weekday rowing until spring. I'll still be able to row on Sundays. That just means more running instead. Still super busy, but I still managed to fit in exercise (rowing or running) every day this week. I just sacrificed family time instead. They understand. My volunteer work will end in less than 10 days and life will get less busy again,

    Total Weight lost: 30 pounds
    Time it took to lose: ~6 months
    How long in maintenance: Since July 2018 -- but with some fluctuation outside of goal range.
    Maintenance weight range: 142 - 148 (and not sure that's the right answer)

    Average weight recorded from 2017 (12 months): 163.8
    Average weight recorded from 2018 (12 months): 150.7
    Average weight recorded from 2019 (12 months): 144.8

    Average weight Week of...
    September 28 - Oct 4 ..... 146.6

    October 12 - 18 ................ 149.4
    October 19 - 25 ................ 148.7
    October 25 - Nov 1 ...........

    Success of the week: I was surprised to see my average weight this week is down a little from last week. Still just over the top of my six pound goal range, but pretty close.

    Struggle of the week: Trending weight app still shows I am gaining, and that's not good since I'm still above the top of my ideal maintenance range; at least I am still within my absolute range, and I am moderating back down to where it should be... it's so slow. Time for something to change.

    Oct 26th: 49.1 kg (trend 49.2 kg)

    Successes:
    I’ve been reviewing the last few months and can see that I have been very successful at maintaining my weight in spite of a lot of holidays. Here in England campsites were allowed to open in early July, and hotels a few weeks later. So, in the last few months we have enjoyed 9 mini-breaks! We started with 3 motorhome breaks (3 nights each time) and since August we have had coach holidays and other short breaks. Each time I have eaten well (and enjoyed some alcohol and cakes), kept active walking and swimming (only in the 3 hotels) while away. My average and trend weight have increased but by less than 1 kg, and I’m still within my goal range.

    Struggles: None really, except the ongoing Covid situation.
    Looking forward, our run of holidays is coming to an end. Our trip to North Wales has been postponed to December (but I am doubtful that it will happen then, the hotel has now been closed since early October and I don’t see the situation improving until the spring). Our 2-week holiday to Lanzarote has been re-arranged to 2021, and the weather isn’t very tempting for campsite holidays especially as so many venues are closed or difficult to visit.

    Time to hunker down, concentrate on my fitness and health and catch up with jobs around the house and garden.

    Onward to November
    Stay safe

    This week was good. I followed by eating fairly closely and got every day of planned exercise in except Sunday. Weight stayed the same so all is good.

    Weigh-in day for me is Friday

    October 16 - 56.2kg
    October 23 - 57.3kg

    Struggle/Success: Although there were a few down days this past week, the majority of time things were better and I was able to do much better with my eating. Our doggie is able to walk much more now, albeit still only about 25% of what she was doing before, but my steps are gradually getting better. Mom is stable and seems keen to work on her speech therapy and walking rehab :-) which is great. I've been eating much less meat which is a good thing!

    Oct 11: 112 (trend 111.9)

    Oct 31: 111.5 (trend 111.7)

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: It was a bit on the cooler side this week so it was a bit more difficult to get out and about outdoors. It'll only trend more in that direction, so I'm hoping that I'll be able to keep up with going outside for walks and outdoor dining without it getting too cold for that.

    Name: Orphia
    Age: 53
    Height: 176 cm
    Heaviest weight: 98.9 kg
    Total Weight lost: 35 kg
    Time it took to lose: 12 months
    How long in maintenance: Since April 2016 - but gained 10 kg March-May 2020 after massive trauma combined with COVID-19.
    Maintenance weight range: 65-75 kg (not sure what’s the right answer - been up and down in there numerous times in my life, apart from going way over 2010-2015).

    I’d like to lose a bit to get back to 70 kg, but I’m still happy at around 75 kg.

    I’m experimenting with seeing how my satiety levels are in relation to the types of foods I eat. Trying to eat more whole foods, which I’ve been getting pretty good at, and less sugar, and it’s going quite well.

    Weekly averages checking day for me is Sunday.

    Success/struggles of the week: It’s been cold still even though it’s nearing summer here, and I had macaroni and cheese one day, which strangely led me to want more the next day, and more sweets and sugary drinks. At least I don’t drink alcohol!

    Average weight recorded for Nov
    Average weight recorded for Dec


    Average weight Week ending:
    10/4: 167.2
    10/11: 164.2
    10/18: 164.5
    10/25: 163.0
    10/31: 163.5

    Success: Experimented with relaxing my logging on days when I work out vigorously. It seemed to work out okay. I had a bit of carb related weight gain M-W, but the weight dropped to a new low on Saturday, so it seemed to have all worked out okay. I'd like to get to the point where I don't need to log my food quite so precisely, yet not over eat. So I'm thinking this might be a good way to experiment in a controlled way.

    Struggles: Still really busy. But still managed to run 5 days this week and have been able to increase my pace considerably.

    Success/Struggles:
    Been going a bit more by how my clothes fit than using the scale every day. If I go out to eat I know the scale will be up unrealistically the next morning so I skip it and weigh the next day. I took like 7 days off from weighing but it didn’t seem to effect the scale all things considered.

    One good note, I fit into my skinniest suit this morning! That was a nice surprise!

    On to November!
