03/14 - DNW
03/15 - 56,40 To be honest, it is quite hard to see this weight again. I felt so accomplished after round 143, when I was so close to my ultimate goal weight. But I am currently telling myself again and again, that it is okay to start over, that this is about a lifestyle and not a quick change and that I have already proven that I am capable of losing the next kg.
03/16 - 55,70 woah, okay I did not expect such a quick drop. However I do suspect this is also partly because of my lack of drinking water yesterday. Let's see how it is tomorrow. Eating wise I did go over my calories. But I did have a really active day with iceskating, walking around town and riding my bike to an appointment. I did have quite a hard time personally in the evening. Normally this would have meant: big binge. I did eat way more, but I did opt for some low-cal ice cream, which helped. Today I already went on a run, which was great!
03/17 - 55,60 this is going quite good! I finally have my bike again & the weather is okayish, so its bearable to bike again. I have so much fun doing it & I feel it always helps with getting movement in. Biked to the supermarket and my friends place yesterday. I went above my calories quite a lot, as my roommate (what do you call that in English when you share a flat?) was cooking & I craved sweets all day. But one nice note on that: she was always quite dismissive of my journey. I think she still is not really liking the weight loss thought, but she lately has adapted some healthy meals & now also cooks more balance every then and now! With kinda excites me, as obviously at the end of the day its not about the scale, but about a healthy lifestyle!
03/18 - 55,70 okay a little increase but still great. Yesterday I was eating quite well & also worked out. Did not meet my steep goal, but still tried to move a little. Went a little over my calories, as I was still hungry at night. Just being consistent is the goal now!
03/19- 55,75 another slight increase. But it's not a surprise, as I had quite a binge yesterday evening. I actually decided afterwards that I will slightly increase my daily calorie intake. I realised, that I was just always hungry in the past days and then binged and my thoughts constantly revolved around food yesterday. Also I am way more active currently, so I am trying to count that in too. This way I want to try to maybe have slower, but more consistent results. Let's see how it works

03/18
03/19 145.4 Just realized I forgot to post yesterday. Weight is still up, I really don't understand why. I felt pretty crappy for 2 days after the vaccine shot, so maybe that's the reason.

03/14 DNW - woke up to the news that my uncle had passed away. He was in his 90s but had a fall a week ago and had been in hospital since then. I didn't know this until today. My cousin messaged me this afternoon, but she'd already put it on Facebook, which is how I found out.

This is my 8th round of 2021, and my New Year resolution was to get at least 30 under my belt...I am a 52 year old woman with progressive MS and poor mobility, so it makes it difficult to lose weight. BUT I am getting weight off slowly but steadily.

Start weight (31 August 2020): 349.2 lbs
Start weight for 143 challenge: 312 .0bs
Aim for 22 March 2021 (end of 144 challenge): 309.9 lbs

03/13: 312 lbs - hopefully will see a good loss tomorrow:)
03/14: 311.3 lbs - that's not too bad, getting there
03/15: 311.3 lbs - steady as she goes!
03/16: 312.7 lbs - good god, what's going on!?! Never mind, am pleased that today I have logged onto MFP for 199 days in a row, that's good in itself, isn't it?
03/17: 312.7 lbs
03/18: 312.7 lbs
03/19: 312.7 lbs - oh come on, this is rubbish.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/13 173 I will spend this round in Florida on different scales but with more opportunity for outside activities.
03/14 173.2 Travel day yesterday so food choices were limited until dinner. Did fine then. Hoping to get control of what someone else on the forum called the “scale creep” this trip. Going to bike to breakfast this morning and get in lots of activity today.
03/15 172.8 Much better food day yesterday and solid exercise day. Rode my bike 10.52 miles and got in a good walk at sunset too.
03/16 173.6 Vacation food. High salt in my lunch yesterday with some seafood nachos, so hopefully some of this is water. Lots of exercise though! My body is tired and sore today, which is a good thing! Won’t get as many steps today because we will be on the boat this afternoon/evening.
03/17 173.8 I had really hoped that so much exercise would allow me to enjoy some vacation food and not gain any weight, but that hasn’t been the case. At least the gain has been slow. I guess I can just hope to limit the damage.
03/18 175 I’m learning that I can’t out-exercise poor eating habits, but since it’s vacation, I will just have to deal with it and do the best I can.
03/19 174 Better.

Personal exercise goals for March:
Average 10,000 steps a day
Walk or ride 150 miles

When I count miles walked, it is just those that are tracked by GPS. I don’t use my watch “total miles for the day” number—just, when I go out for a walk, I log that. That’s why I’m working on my overall step count this month. I’m interested to see what effect getting in more steps throughout the day has on my TDEE number I can track in my watch/phone. Think I’ll add that to these numbers just so I have an easy record. I think that might be important long term, and I’ve never paid much attention to it. So, I think I might gain some insight this month by tracking all of this. Fingers crossed!
(AVERAGE TDEE from February was 2358)

Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

3/13: 211.6
I had ¾ of a Jack’s frozen pizza last night. Having some friends over tonight, so tomorrow could be higher. Sous vide steak, finished on the grill. They are bringing the dessert. I better try to limit the damage today until then.

3/14: 212.8

3/15: 213.4
As you can see, I had a bit of a discipline problem over the weekend. And, I am still carrying around ALL of that lack of discipline. Had some friends over Saturday night that we had not seen since December. Plenty to eat and drink. Yesterday we had leftovers.

3/16: 212.8
The second half of this challenge needs a miracle.

3/17: 211.6
“Slowly, drop the green beer and step away sir.” Happy St Pat’s everyone!

3/18: 212.0
Time to examine my logging habits. I may be underestimating on quantity. Or, not logging everything.

3/19: 211.6
I think his has been a stressful week. Stress makes me want to munch. I have TMJ problems so I can’t chew gum.

By the way, lack of stress makes me want to munch.

I guess I will quit blaming stress. 😊

Day, Weight, Comment

3/13 – 198 – 10,793 steps, 40 min aerobics yesterday. Still a little too close for comfort to the northern border of Onederland but feeling more secure that my stay here will soon be permanent! Have recalibrated some of my weight goals – trying to be realistic but also challenge myself to make significant progress. My birthday is at the end of April and I’d very much like to move further south across the northern border of "overweight" BMI territory at 185 lbs by then. Today’s focus: Don’t think about work, school, career, future. Enjoy the moment. Be thankful for what I have. Probably a short hike/walk near home today. We may be passing by In-and-Out on the way home.

3/14 – 199 - 30,428 steps yesterday. Probably a little too much sodium yesterday. Fasting today. Hoping to see a significant drop tomorrow.

3/15 – 196.6 – 10,107 steps yesterday. A little drop from fasting. I’d hoped to dip a little lower. Focus on eating mindfully today.

3/16 – 198.4 – 10,067 steps yesterday. Barely making those 10,000 steps some days! With everything going on the last couple of weeks I haven’t been doing my aerobics regularly. Have to get back into it. Focus as always on eating mindfully.

3/17 – 10,111 steps yesterday

3/18 – 10,133 steps yesterday

3/19 – 199.6, 10,965 steps, 30 min aerobics yesterday. I’ve been really stressed and busy the last few days preparing for a job interview with teaching demonstration yesterday. Yikes. Need to do better planning for how to eat well during stressful times. I hope this is just a bump in the road. Moving in the wrong direction again, dang it! Need to make time to weigh myself and focus on goals every day, whatever my workload. I’m really spending too much time living in the future in my mind instead of the present and I need to change this.

Is the smiley face and the text afterwards in the next column? I used the left align command.

Looks fine to me.

So this is how I see my posts when I try to do anything other than plain text and color.

Even when I edit it to be correct when I hit post reply it goes back to making a new column!! I don't know what causes it!

If I take the color command out, it works. But I want my blue! Gonna try on another computer later today. If it still doesn't work, I give up.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/13 DNW no exercise today and still struggling with food choices because weather is too cool and windy. We did have some great weather day’s last week.
03/14 195.7 Got in a short workout today which is better than Saturday. I need to cut the sugar right now but we need to be healthy in my entire household. I am trying though.

03/16 196.0 It’s something. Good morning to all.
03/17 195.1 Here we go. I am trying here but it’s hard.

Day/Weight/Comment

3/13 - 183
I was a bit “off” yesterday from my second COVID shot — I slept all afternoon, went to bed earlier than usual and slept until 8:40! Whew! I do feel better, though not 100%. May need some more sleep, which should get me in shape for Springing forward tonight! Happy Saturday, all!

3/14 - 183
29th anniversary. It’s been a great 3 decades, full of dogs, cats, gardens, adventures, love.... Ordering out for anniversary dinner, so I expect a bump up tomorrow, but that’s ok.

3/15 - 183
I had a major pig out for our anniversary carry out — we ordered from our fav Italian restaurant, and I had a fabulous chicken breast cooked in lemon mushroom sauce. Actually not too bad on the calories front, since we ate around 2 and considered it lunch & dinner. I went for a lovely walk later. Today we’ve dropped back into the 20s and there’s a possibility of sleet. Oh, well, this will be short term.

3/16 - 182.8
Well, I paid for my anniversary pig out with an upset tummy all day yesterday, still a touch this morning. We got “wintry mix” yesterday and it’s cold today, but the temp is supposed to be on it’s way up. Yay! Can’t wait for warm weather & more flowers. Here are some already up!

3/17 - 183.2
I didn’t check yesterday’s sodium, but I feel bloated this morning, so I’m thinking less salt, more wawa. It’s a chilly, frosty morning, but we’re supposed to hit the mid-60s this afternoon. I’m looking forward to a nice walk!

3/18 - 183
Cold, rainy, gloomy this morning. I think I’ll curl up with a book.

3/19 - 182.6
Still cold today, but warming up, and next week looks great. I can’t wait to get out in the garden! Happy Friday, all!

@UTMom81 I also love seeing your face AND the beach! I will definitely share the quilt show link when it is available. It will be interesting since the judging is also virtual.

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/12 …..207.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/13 …..207.2 ….. Daughter and 3 yr old grandson moved in last night after family feuding. For a short time or for much longer? I don’t know yet but this will definitely put my meals even more out of whack! I’ll have to figure this out! The plus side, more time with them and lots of extra steps. Good luck everyone this round!

03/14 …..207.2 ….. No change. Hectic here right now…

03/15 …..207.2 ….. Not doing well on the diet with the houseful of people daily. Between family moving in and the renovation crew, my life is upside down! Doing my best here but I just don’t have the space, the energy or the privacy I need to cook multiple dinners, lunches, etc. I already cook 2 different ones per meal due to my son’s autism and eating disorders. I’m not going to throw my hands up. I will find the answers.


03/16 …..207.0 ….. A bit surprised to see this after Chinese leftovers yesterday. Tomorrow is travel back to my attorney for Will & Trust things again. Lunch will be out. She is far from home.

03/17 …..xxxxx ….. DNW. In such a hurry for travel this morning (also dealing with DGS the scale never crossed my mind. Lunch was out. The best Pizza I have ever had which came highly recommended for the city I was going to. Thank Goodness I live far from THAT pizza restaurant!

03/18 …..207.4 ….. Whew! It could have been worse! This I can handle! Tonight is our St. Patty’s Day Dinner which was pushed back a day due to my travel yesterday. Sharing with quite a few so my portions will be forced to be minimal. That is a good thing!

03/19 …..207.4 ….. Grateful and surprised for no change after a high-sodium corned beef dinner last night. Will it slowly creep in during the coming days? Time will tell but I will continue pushing water today. Babysitting DGS all day so I will be moving all day. He’s 3.

03/20 …..xxxxx …..

03/21 …..xxxxx …..

03/22 …..xxxxx …..

03/01 – 11,051 Steps yesterday. The most steps in a very long time. Certainly the most since my retirement!
03/02 - 6,181 Steps yesterday. It was a busy day with the remodel. Full house.
03/03 - 4,937 Steps yesterday. Unexpected travel with lots of car rides. I keep my fitbit on my non-dominate wrist, not my ankle, so I know I actually got in over 10,000 with ALL the shopping. However, I had no time for any extra planned exercise yesterday so I am grateful for the steps in the big box stores.
03/04 - 6,589 It was a paperwork day. Not as much movement or as many steps as I would have liked.
03/05 - 4,276. Another paperwork day as I prepped for my attorney appointment today for my will & trust (and other matters). Travel today will bring light steps for tomorrow also.
03/06 - 7,489 Traveled but still got in some steps.
03/07 – 6,827 Steps. I should have tried harder. I probably could have gotten more in. I have been doing some planned stairs in the house though.
03/08 - 7,092 Steps. I had a sit-down meeting last night so getting more steps in was impossible. I am shocked, actually, that I got in this many!
03/09 - 8,217 Steps.
03/10 - 7,123 Steps. I had a movie night last night.
03/11 - 8,635 Steps and I worked for every one of them intentionally!
03/12 - 8,672 Steps.
03/13 -10,237 Steps chasing active grandson.
03/14 - 8,726
03/15 - 7,164 Steps. Still getting them from inside home.
03/16 - 7,546 Steps. Snow today. Grandson visiting other relatives so I will have to get those steps another way and not from chasing him! LOL.
03/17 – 11,857 Steps. That is what grandchildren will do to you sometimes LOL!
03/18 - 6,571 Steps. Surprised it wasn’t more!
03/19 - 7,835 Steps.
