Day/Weight/Comment
12/13 - 142.5 - My life's been a little crazy over the past week, but I have managed to track my weight. I'll try to catch up on all the posts from last round that I missed.
12/14 - 144 - Not a surprise. I had a feeling that the scale was off yesterday and I had plenty of sodium. Drinking all the water today!
12/15 - 144.5 - I'm really going to try to stay within weight loss calories the rest of the week. I don't want to go into Christmas at the top of my maintenance.
12/16 - 144.5 - I'm just glad my weight didn't go any higher.
12/17 - 145 - Stress is getting to me. We found out last week that my husband may have bladder cancer. We should know more on the 28th when he has a cystoscopy. I'm right at that level of stress where I eat for comfort especially with all the Christmas goodies around. My husband has wanted some comfort food too and I'm not keeping him from that either. (He doesn't have a weight problem) Logically, I know food is not going to fix our issues, but I've decided I'm not going to beat myself up if I go over maintenance. I'll just keep tracking and staying mindful, so I don't have too much to lose after the holidays.
12/18 - 144.5 - Took the day off work today to clean my house and get a few things done before Christmas. My birthday is Sunday and we're doing a Zoom video call with multiple family members. Luckily, I only have to make sure the one room is really spotless for the call!
12/19 - 143.5 - I suspect this is a false low (sometimes my scale gets "stuck"), but I'll take it.
12/20 - 144 - Not a surprise!
12/21 - 144
12/22 - 143.5 - I know the past 2 days of carbs are going to catch up with me, but for now I'll take this weight.

@SheilaBoneham - Happy Birthday! Yes, December babies are the best!
@prehistoricmoongoddess - I hope you enjoyed your birthday too!4 -
@jaccimc63 I think I missed offering you birthday wishes. Happy Birthday, and it sounds like it was wonderful!
@SheilaBoneham Happy Birthday to you! Wishing you a fantastic day!6 -
Happy Holidays! This next 10 days will be hard for me and probably the 10 days after that too. I learned participating in the last 2 rounds that being accountable to this message board have shockingly helped me exceed my goals. Now to practice control- to paraphrase my favorite poem form Rudyard Kipling- "If you can keep your head while all around you your favorite food and drinks tempt you"...Sorry to purist, I adapt a phrase from that poem for any moment in my life for guidance.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/13 -121.6 So relieved to start here. Last night my kids(who are both technically adults now) were home and made spaghetti and meatballs- my husbands family recipe. Delicious and even though I had a massive migraine had a wonderful time. Ended last round not tracking my dinner last night, and will need to figure out how to track these family meals with other cooks in my kitchen. Also will need to start making my biggest downfall- poppyseed roll, and Christmas cookies. Its easier to have self control when the cookies are not in the house.
12/14 - 122.4 Great way to start- FAIL- Didn't track and log last night and guesstimated Saturday, so why am I surprised I gained. I seem to start each round with a gain and have to keep learning the hard way to track is the secret ( really not secret but obvious!) way to success. Foiled last night by cute, nice, darling neighbor dropping cookies off - the nerve of some people. They were delicious....
12/15 -122.0 In economics there is a mantra - "Prices are sticky downward"- which i think can be equally applied to weight! Today I am volunteering at the Salvation Army for the toy and food distribution-I am so blessed I can help out but diet wise will be challenged- I need to squeeze in workout this morning and avoid the snack and treat room.
12/16 -121.6 Yesterday was wonderful! I am so thankful to the Salvation Army that I could volunteer to help distribute gifts and food to so many families. They are to be commended on all they accomplish. Yesterday went so well, but no time to snack at all- barely time to sneak to bathroom-which I think I needed more to just have a break from my face shield for 3 minutes. Today need to start baking- honestly am a little nervous, I love cookies and poppy seed rol so much, and have never showed any self control in past with these items...
12/17 -122.8 EEEKS!!! I know poppyseed roll is my downfall but almost 2 pounds so plays with your head.
12/18 -130
12/19 -122.8
12/20 -122.4
12/21 -121.7- Busy time of year, next few days will be challenging. My husband who never takes time off at this time of year because he has had to work so hard since march is taking a week off, this may challenge my diet more than poppyseed roll.
12/22 - 121.8 Only .2 up from start....Very pleased! Logging, weighting and checking in really make a difference for me.
12/13 - Walk and pickleball, pretty much my rest day.
12/14 - Body pump and 2 hours pickleball-
12/15 - Elliptical- 45 minutes morning, 30 minutes night
12/16 - Essentrics, CX works 2 1/2 hours pickleball
12/17 - Essentrics, CX Works 2 hours pickleball
12/18 - 2 3/4 hours pickleball
12/19 - Essentrics, Body Pump Elliptical
12/20 - 2 1/2 Pickleball
12/21 - Body Pump, 2 1/2 hours pickleball - then 45 dance class with my daughter.

@prehistoricmoongoddess - Many happy returns for yesterday, hope you had a wonderful day!. If you can't ease up for 1 day on your birthday in these challenging times when can you? xx3

12/17 - 172.1
12/18 - 171.7 just might make that pound loss yet this round. However, just started seasonal baking, so...
12/19 - 172.4
12/20 - DNW Chillin' 4 batches of cookies to bake this week
12/21 - 172.4 Started IF again this a.m. No food till 11. First few days will be hard, but so is anything worth doing. Thank goodness for coffee!
12/22 - 172.8 Seem to remember I used to always weigh more on the last day each round. This was the middle weigh reading today. My first one was 173! Could it have been the 9 p.m. chocolate chip IF cheat, or just the scale being a bit crooked? Either way, I refuse to let a couple ounces here or there veer me off course.
@SheilaBoneham - Happy Birthday! You are an inspiration!4 -

WOW so close to Christmas, Happy birthday to you both!

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
12/13 213.1 No exercise, 1492 cal, 47 net carbs, 1 wine. Pancakes for breakfast + chips & guac for lunch.
12/14 212.8 No exercise rainy weekend, plank, 2486 cal, 44 net carbs, 2 wine. Really rich dinner - Sheet Pan Mustard Chicken with Bacon, Mushrooms & Onions.
12/15 211.6 🎗Walked 3.1 miles, plank, 1142 cal, 78 net carbs, AF. Red beans and rice for dinner surely bump up the scale but it didn't. Maybe because of smaller portion or no cornbread? Low calories overall today and I guess carbs were not as out of control as I thought.
12/16 212.1 Walked 2.4 miles in misty rain, plank, 1269 cal, 85 net carbs, 3 wine. Pasta for dinner. WI at my obgyn’s yesterday fully clothed w/shoes in the afternoon was 212! When I last saw her in Feb 2019 I weighed 235.
12/17 213.4 Walked 1.9 + .9 miles, 1846 cal, 144 net carbs, AF. I think I pushed the limits with a restaurant salad at lunch and then Grimaldi’s pizza for dinner! Both were delicious but back to the board to drive the scale back down.
12/18 213.4 Walked 3.2 miles, 1659 cal, 72 net carbs, 2 wine. Lost electricity unexpected dinner out.
12/19 212.7 Walked 3.3 miles, plank, 1465 cal, 39 net carbs, AF. Still not drinking enough water … need to up my game and guzzle more water this weekend.
12/20 212.7 No exercise, plank, 1421 cal, 113 net carbs, AF. Homemade Holiday Fruit Cookies … DH’s favorite from his mother’s recipe.
12/21 212.3 Walked 3 miles, 2079 cal, 93 net carbs, AF. Family lunch with all the kids … lots of veggies but also more cookies.
12/22 212.9 Walked 3 miles, plank, 1402 cal, 149 net carbs, AF. The cookies are now gone!
Saw lower numbers this round but with the holidays I’m happy with any loss!8 -
Previously...
133 = 205/93 - 200.6/91
134 = 200.6/91 - 197/89.5
SW: 198.4/90
CW: 196.2/89
Goal: Preplan my food every day
Goal: Be under 200lbs on 22nd
Day/Weight/Comment12/13 = 90
Confused at my weigh-in results today I looked into how many calories I need to be eating (instead of just guessing)
Thanks to @SheilaBoneham for posting the link to https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/ so I could get some good ballpark numbers.
12/14 = 90
The same again? It's so hard to trust that I'm still losing when the scale doesn't move.
12/15 = 90
Over 7000kj today.
What are you rebelling against?
What have you got?... like, got any cookies on ya?
12/16 = 90
12/17 = 90 Halfway
About 7000kj again due to an (oily) poorly cooked dinner by my partner must find a way to tactfully reject food that isn't good for me, even if it was prepared with good intentions.
12/18 = 90
I've decided to look at this streak as an accomplishment If this was next week I'd be proud of my weight management
12/19 = 90
Though maintenance was a personal goal for my holidays (starting on the 21st) I admit that I didn't actually believe I could do it, but because of this round I've seen that I can and am feeling positive about the next two weeks
Now to get the rest of my projects half as organized!
12/20 = 90
Last day before my holidays! So exciting!
Thinking about 2021...
I've decided that after the holidays I want to start monitoring my macros, specifically my carb intake (to see if a lower-carb diet might be compatible with my lifestyle)
I'm also thinking about doing the GAPS diet next year to address some intolerance issues which got worse during 2019-2020 but it's a very disruptive/restrictive and psychologically exhausting (for me) diet, so I'll need to get the timing right.
12/21 = 89.5! Solstice
12/22 = 89
YAY accomplished my goals for the round of remaining under 200lbs and to plan my food every day.
I'm feeling a whole new sense of confidence in my ability to control my weight (to some degree).

12/13 195.5
12/14 196.1 What I didn’t think about in regards to this time of the year is how you run out of time to cook. When I add in the task of doing my daughter hair for 2 and half hours last night it adds to running out of time. I never cooked dinner. Had meal prep ideas, never got to it. The weather was warm yesterday so I took to the kids to the park. That was nice.
12/15 196.7 I am losing this race. Cookies and apple crisp.
12/16 196.2 Some progress but I have a feeling that a REAL gain has happened, no water weight. I have had so much junk in my house with the 3 year old holiday. Last night was really hard. The only thing I ate that was not regulation was 6 sour patch kids. It was not nearly enough but I resisted anything else and even did some dancing with the kids to Christmas songs in front of the Christmas tree last night. I was trying to teach them how to twist. LOL
12/17 195.3 I did lots of shoveling which is great exercise on the arms and legs. Plus running after my children with a much awaited snowball fight.
12/18 195.5 Small workout today.
12/19 194.9
12/20 195.7
12/21 195.
12/22 195.4 I had no workout this morning less and than 8 hours in 2 days. I have been up since before 2am. Could not fall back to sleep. This is increasing my appetite. I really considered calling out I am at work not working because my brain feels like pureed food. Mama needs some sleep.

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment
12/13 - 182.8 - 1626
I’m currently up 50 stupid pounds from Nov. 2018. That’s 2 pounds a month. I’m so disappointed in myself, though of course regaining lost weight is the norm. I don’t want to be normal. I don’t like to set weight goals because I can’t control my weight, only what I do about it, but I’m shifting gears and setting goals of 155 by 1-1-22, and 130 by 1-1-23. I’m ordering warmer clothes for winter walking/running and I’m determined to stick with it. It took me 3.5 years to lose 84 pounds, which is an overall average of 2# per month (there were faster periods and plateaus), but 2 per month seems realistic for me. I did it before, I can do it again. I just have to quit pretending otherwise.
12/14 - 182.8 - 1372
Yesterday was good. No nighttime noshing. Plenty of protein. A little exercise despite the cold wind. Happy Monday, all!
12/15 - 182 - 1368
Another good day yesterday. I did have a whole-grain English muffin with natural peanut butter last night because I was really hungry, but calories good anyway. Off to the post office with final “away” gifts — aaacccckkkkkk! Lines! Be safe, all.
12/16 - 182.6 - 1716
Oops. But my weekly average is below TDEE, so there’s that. Cold and snowy today, but my garden looks peaceful and lovely. I hope everyone in the path of this big storm is safe and warm.
12/17 - 182.2 - 1626
A bit better. Calories acceptable, and no late-night snacking. I’ve really had the urge to bake, but since I can’t disperse the results very well, I’ve resisted. I will bake myself a cake next week, though, and take some to friends & neighbors. My fleece-lined longies arrived, so I’ll give them a test run today — high expected 32F. Brrrrr. It’s been nice, though, sitting inside, looking out at the snow, knitting in the glow of the Christmas tree. We were lucky to get just the edge of the big storm. Be safe & warm, all.
12/18 - 182.4 - 1540
I tried for a walk yesterday but there was ice everywhere and falling is not on my to-do list, so I did some old-fashioned calisthenics. I’ve also put my dumbbells in my bathroom and every time I go there, I do 5 reps of some sort of lift. It adds up!
12/19 - 181.8 - 1388
I’m doing much better — no snacks for several days. Yay! DH wants gyros today, so I plan to weigh my meat and eat it with salad only, no pita. Oh, and some good Greek olives! Yum! Happy Saturday, all. I hope you’re all safe and warm.
12/20 - 181.2 - 1258
Finally moving in the right direction. Our favorite Greek restaurant is closed due to COVID exposure 😞 so we ordered Mexican yesterday instead. I stuck with chicken fajitas and raw veggies, no tortillas. A neighbor brought over some Christmas candy, and I haven’t touched it — yay me! I feel like someone finally flipped my “ready to eat right” switch. I can’t believe this round is almost over.
12/21 - 182 - 1549
I knew the 182s wouldn’t give up easily. 🤨 No worries — I’ve done better with food choices this round than I have in a loonnngggg while, so little by little. I just finished The Diet Myth by Tim Spector — highly recommended, esp. if you’re a science geek like me. Now to implement....
12/22 - 181.6 - 1251.
🎂 Birthday. Okay, not a bad round. DH made cinnamon raisin French toast for my birthday breakfast, which was lovely. Usually we take each other out for birthday “lunch dinners,” usually seafood, but not this year. I’m trying to pick something to order, but nothing appeals. Maybe Thai? It’s supposed to be a bit warmer today so I’m planning a nice birthday walk. And on to R136. See you there!

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

12/13 118.0 Virtual sew day with the ladies
12/14 119.0 Sat in a chair all day yesterday but got SOOO much accomplished. Sewed blocks into rows for quilt top started 18 months ago, sewed together blocks for a wall hanging after figuring out how to compensate for one really wrong size block, crocheted some on a shawl started over a year ago. See a pattern here? I feel good about what I did and the soup I made myself was delish and within my macros. Did not drink enough water AND got up 3 times during the night because I was thirsty and needed to pee! Push water today!!!
12/15 117.5 Still didn’t drink more than 2.5 qts of water. I only count plain or sparkling water - not coffee or seltzer/vodka.
12/16 117.5 Awake at 4:40AM with headache, gave up and got up, it’s finally getting better. Darn arthritis!
12/17 117.5 Husband has eye exam this afternoon so I will walk around Walmart while he’s there.
12/18 119.0 Easily explained in 2 words - Great Greek. Didn’t go to Walmart but walked with neighbor for a short distance. She has many health issues and shutdown has really had a negative effect on her. Going to lunch with her today after DH & I donate a unit of blood.
12/19 119.5 What a disaster at the blood bank! We had appointments for 12:15 and over an hour after that they hadn’t started the collection. We left to meet the neighbor for our lunch reservation in what turned out to be a smoke filled bar. We went elsewhere. I can’t believe there are only 3 more days this round! Where does the time go???
12/20 119.0

MAYBE this round I’ll move.

Yes, I've been thinking about the folks that seem to have dropped out again @HoopsGuy72 (and his wife? not 100% sure !) also @Mollyreallyhungry & @kecward78 to name just a few. I miss them! Perhaps they will join us either in the next round or even the New Year, a new beginning!!3 -

Day/Weight/Comment
12/12 …..204.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/13 …..203.2 ….. A nice little drop to start this round. I stuck to low calorie and carb yesterday until the peanut butter toast last night (just too hungry). However, due to a diligent day, my calories remained low and my carbs were mid-range. It helped. Good luck everyone this round!
12/14 …..203.4 ….. I would love to call this a normal fluctuation but….. well, my meals were on track but the Christmas goodies people share got to me a bit too much.
12/15 …..205.0 ….. I deserve this, however, bad days do not define me. Today will be a better day.
12/16 …..205.0 ….. Very good meal planning but snacks got me again. Also, little to urine output. Retaining water for sure!
12/17 …..205.2 ….. I just couldn’t seem to get full yesterday. I think my choices for my meals and snacks may have been too many empty calories.
12/18 …..205.0 ….. Very late entry because I traveled today for Christmas shopping and just got home a short bit ago. Worried about the scale a bit for in the morning now. And I have not even started baking yet.
12/19 …..205.4 ….. I expected it to be much higher after the all day (and night) travel yesterday so I am pleasantly surprised. I hope it doesn’t “catch up” with me over the next couple of days. Snow here today. Cold but absolutely beautiful in my rural setting.
12/20 …..206.0 …..
12/21 …..206.0 ….. A better eating day. Medium movement because a workman was here day and evening. No TMI x 2 days isn’t helping. My oh My, where did the time go? Tomorrow is the last day of the round? Pre-prepping low cal dinner for sure!
12/22 …..204.8 ….. I worked hard to drop my weight overnight but I still ended above goal. Anything I can do to keep a handle on it during this ferociously busy time is a blessing at this point. Workers here until late last night so no privacy for exercise but I stayed moving. Today is cookie and fudge making day with my daughter. God help me. Nice round everyone! See you just around the corner.
My goal is to Dance for 20 minutes per day to increase my calorie burn.
Dec 01 – Danced 20 minutes and my was it harder than last time!
Dec 02 – Danced my heart out for 20 minutes.
Dec 03 – No dancing. Paperwork and wrapping presents.
Dec 04 – Danced for 20 minutes to mostly classic rock.
Dec 05 – Danced for about 22 minutes to a nice mix of music.
Dec 06 – Lots of movement but no dancing due to workmen here all day and continued unpacking.
Dec 07 – More workers here and no dancing. However, if you count going up and down stairs for hours as exercise, I got in my fair share!
Dec 08 – Danced about 8 minutes. Better than nothing I suppose.
Dec 09 – 20 minutes of dancing and it knocked the wind out of me. Slower songs next time until I get used to it again!
Dec 10 – No dancing. All working around the house and sitting…sitting…sitting while shopping online. No stores in my rural area!
Dec 11 – Danced 20 minutes and even sang to the songs!
Dec 12 – No Dancing. Not enough movement. Online shopping again!
Dec 13 – Danced for about 14 minutes.
Dec 14 – I didn’t dance. A friend was over until very late last night who ran errands with me all day. Donuts & coffee did not help the scale.
Dec15 – Danced about 12 minutes. But I got a LOT of unpacking and orgainizing done. And I am all caught up on the wrapping until Amazon visits me tomorrow.
Dec 16 – No Dancing. Went on errands and then my friend came over.
Dec 17 – 20 minutes of dancing.
Dec 18 – No dancing. All travel and car sitting yesterday until almost midnight!
Dec 19 – No dancing. Wrapped all day the presents from my Christmas haul.
Dec 20 – No dancing because a workman was here most of the day and evening. But I got in LOTS of housecleaning!
Dec 21 – Two very slow workmen here yesterday. Left at 9:30 pm No dancing but I tried to stay fairly active organizing.7 -
