    I keep missing the start of the next round so I decided to just jump in midstream and go with it. I'm starting my healthy eating journey tomorrow morning. I did all my shopping for fruits, vegetables, lean meats, fish etc. today. The fridge and pantry are stocked and I'm so ready to stop feeling like a stuffed sausage in all my clothes. I refuse to buy bigger sizes! Thanks for letting me join in.

    I will start posting my weight tomorrow morning since it's 7:40 pm here in California and I just had dinner.

    Welcome, today is a perfect time to start and join us, hope youe find us all super supportive!

    @deepwoodslady Don't be too hard on yourself! I think the vast majority of us have been exactly where you are, maybe, like me, even worse. That "experiment" as you called it can be great motivation, not just for you, but for the rest of us as well. Thanks for sharing and know that we are all behind you on this journey!

    @leni1us Welcome to the best group in MFP (IMHO). So glad you joined us, and whether it is the start of the round or not makes absolutely no difference. We're just glad you're here!

    Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

    2/11 - 183.2 - 1702
    Got my first COVID shot yesterday. I feel fortunate to live in a city & state where vaccination is going smoothly. One of today’s projects is some behavior design a la Dr. B.J. Fogg’s Tiny Habits — I’m trying small changes to make snacking more difficult and small exercise habits easier. Excellent book, btw.
    ❤️ Looking through nursery catalogs and day-dreaming about my garden.

    2/12 - 185 - 1412
    That’s catch up from very high calories last round. It’s ok, will come back off. I’m planning an easy day, unless I feel better later — very woozy this morning, which I’m sure is from my vaccine. Good excuse to sit and read (not that I need an excuse!)
    ❤️ Watching Mike the cat as he watches birds out the window, and listening to his comments.

    2/13 - 183 - 1572
    That’s better. I don’t know why I went so nuts on calories last round, but I feel back in control.
    ❤️ Going through my yarn stash — the colors, the feel of the various fibers, the visions of what can be, the urge to start something new.

    2/14 - 183.4 - 1226
    Yesterday was a good day. Wishing you all a lovely Valentine’s Day!
    ❤️ Silly Valentine rhymes.

    2/15 - 183 - 1270
    Today I begin a two-week news semi-fast in an effort to lose some of the emotional weight of the past few months. My plan is to check once a day for updates on COVID and the weather and to ignore the rest as much as possible. I can’t help but think that tuning out the craziness and tuning in instead to learning something new and doing something creative with that time will cut into my emotional food snarfing. The last time I did this I found myself craving salads 🥗, steamed veggies 🥦, nuts🥜, and fruit 🫐 instead of sugar and salt. I’ll letcha know!
    ❤️ Listening to uplifting songs from singers whose voices fill my heart. This morning, I am lifted by Mercedes Sosa singing Gracias a la Vida (on YouTube).

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 141 (round 73 for me ) I''ve proved I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you GrandmaJackie a brilliant champion in these unprecedented & unsettled times, for continuing to set up these challenges.

    Female age 62 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 closer to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life ! Long term goal is to get and then stay under 130; then full maintanace starts and dare I say it is in my sights?

    Challenge for this round – get back into and stay in 120's? Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, try to keep it in moderation, keep walking, no binges; remember keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference! Run 4 x during the 10 days.


    Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.

    02/10 132.4 – 7.93 miles walked yesterday. Not proud of this weight, relaxed and let things slip; 2.2 pound increase from end of last round and that was after seeing the figure that I wanted to be on the very first day of the round! Oh well, no point in dwelling too much on it, I'm moving on, today will effect the start of the new round, that's what I'm concentrating on right now.

    SW: 132.4
    GW: <130

    Day/Weight/Comment
    02/11 131.6 – a good start to the round, ate really healthily yesterday, aim to keep the momentum going for this 10 days. 9.2 miles walked yesterday; again in the light snow. Another cold day here -4C at the moment brrrh!! was hoping for a run this morning, but will have to see what the pavements are like later.
    02/12 130.8 – 9.48 miles yesterday including 27 mins run. Another good food day & it shows on the scales. Keeping end of last round post in this rounds post to remind myself how I felt on that last day weigh in!

    02/13 130.8 - 10.99 miles walked locally from home (as always during lockdown) yesterday. Cooked Chinese New Year meal; prawns on sesame ryvita to start, duck leg in hoisin sauce with black bean veggie stir fry for main washed down with a glass of Rosé & all within calories.
    02/14 130.8 – 11.46 miles walked yesterday all in below zero C temps! ; 5 miles or so in I turned my ankle on a frozen rut whilst crossing a field, no pain no discomfort I carried on for another 6 or 7 miles incident free. However, later in the afternoon whilst watching the rugby the ankle began to ache, gradually getting worse as the day went on and by evening I could not bear any weight on it at all & the intense pain! DH had to prepare and serve tea! I didn't want to take painkillers as I am giving blood in a few days, just elevated it and very gently wiggled it a little. It was a little better before bed, but got up this morning and it is almost back to normal!! Can't believe it really ….. I'm going to avoid running for a good few days but will try out a gentle walk later this morning.
    02/15 130 - 9.41 miles walked yesterday, the ankle held up so we just kept walking till the rain came!! Despite a home cooked delicious 3 course Valentine Sunday roast kept within calories.
    02/16 130.6 – 9.97 miles walked yesterday.

    02/12 - 27 mins running yesterday

    LOVE FOR OTHERS – Had my assessment to volunteer to help in the Covid vaccination process.
    02/13 – the birds yesterday morning started inspecting our nesting boxes, I really love nature – spring really is round the corner. Bring it on!!
    02/14 – Happy Valentine Day to all MFP; sending all my friends here love to boost you in anyway it can.
    02/15 – A wonderful video call yesterday with DD, DS and little DGCs; love my family, miss them so much.
    02/16 – all top 4 in list of cohert groups now been offered first vaccine so yesterday they moved on to 5 & 6, we're in group 7 so loving it that it''s getting closer for me & DH.

    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – we're all in this together!
