My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of gaining, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

5/12 - 188 - 1532
Pizza (salt) yesterday, but I kept my calories in line nonetheless. Beautiful day coming up! Wishing you all a successful round.
5/13 - 188.4 - 1632
No surprise. Yesterday was a crazy day food wise — got together with 3 writer friends and the hostess had candy, nuts, pastries... I had some but counted as lunch. Then pizza leftovers for dinner. But I’m back on track with a good breakfast this morning, salad fixin’s for lunch, and baked chicken & broccoli for dinner. I’m off in a few for a walk and a nursery run, then planting. Yay! A garden day! I hope you get to do what you love today, even if only for a little while.
5//14 - 190 - 1500
Again, not happy but also not surprised — time lag from Wed. Gorgeous day coming up, and I have lots of plants to keep me busy planting plus an arbor to assemble. That should keep me mostly out of trouble.
5/15 - 190 - 1696
Ugh. I know this increase is water from a series of very carby days, but yuck. Otoh, I got my arbor in place and went for a nice long walk. I plan to spend much of today planting & doing other gardening. Supposed to be in the 70s today, rain tomorrow, so perfect. Have a lovely Saturday, all!
5/16 - 189.4 - 1239
Hard to believe we’re half way through May, and half way through this round. ⏳
5/17 - 190 - 1352
Aacckk. Salt, though — we ordered Bob Evans turkey. I replaced the dressing with broccoli, but the food tasted very salty to me, and I feel puffy. This has to stop, though. I’m aiming for lots of water, and a long walk as well as garden time today. At least I’ve done reasonably well with calories this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/12 - Trying to increase water consumption in addition to counting calories. Feeling a tad overwhelmed by it all though right now, but I know that I want to fight through it and do my best.
5/13 – 256.3 lbs. – Disappointed in myself, I caved and got a soda to drink. Will try and better my ability to withstand cravings.
5/14 – 256.7
5/15 – Saturday – Will not be entered – Will update again Monday – 256.3
5/16 - Sunday - Will not be entered – Will update again Monday – 256.8
5/17 – 254.9 - The weekend was a struggle; my boyfriend does not understand my desire to track and monitor food intake. He wanted to eat out all weekend and snack on cookies and candies. When I did the grocery shopping, I went alone and he was upset that I didn't get him snacks while at the store. MC started on Sunday so I expect some weight fluctuations this week. Completely unmotivated this morning, and wanting to crawl into a bowl of ice cream.

5/17 - 148.6 - Better than expected! Still recovering from ice cream and dehydration. Bloated and tummy still a little sensitive. Got more water, about 60 oz, but was feeling a little queasy if I drank too much too quick. Today seems a little better on the water intake. It's still slow, but I think I can still hit 90+ oz today. Back to fasting since I couldn't manage yesterday (though the toast did help settle things tremendously and was worth breaking my fast). Hoping later on I can get in some movement without causing too much tummy rumblings. Maybe if rain lets up a bit, I can take the pup for a walk, too.

Previous Day's Comments5/12 - A drop is a drop, even if its only 0.1lbs! This weather we are having is killing me. Unfortunately, big swings in weather (such as storms rolling in and out) cause my injuries to get stiff, swollen, and achy. Particularly my back which causes my legs to either go tingly-numb or ache as well due to the nerve damage and swelling around said nerve. I haven't had a workout since Saturday when we worked the land (trust me, it was a workout). Today should clear up though starting Saturday there's chance of storms for a week straight. I will hopefully get a bit of reprieve and can get a workout in, but for now I'm just focusing on gentle movement and stretching. If the worst of it settles, I'll try some yoga. Don't worry, I'm used to this! It'll pass and I'll have some wonderful days coming soon. Guess it's not April Showers and May Flowers but May Showers and (hopefully) June Flowers! Good news is, my garden is reaping the benefits of it all and I'm still visiting my little outdoor friends. I even have my first cucumber of the season! Next day or two will be ideal for picking it (:
5/13 - I've been frustrated and couldn't bring myself to post yesterday. I feel like I'm doing things right and yet my body is fighting harder than ever before. This week for work is busier since it is monthly meeting week to review all of last month's reliability issues and endless meetings to do so. Haven't gotten a workout in. Been feeling......bleh? Don't know how to describe it. I'm achy still, too, which isn't helping me push through anything. Water wasn't good yesterday, maybe 60oz. Didn't fast because I had an upset stomach in the morning and had some toast to calm it. It did help a ton so I'm happy I didn't break my fast for nothing. Back to fasting today and already working on my water intake for the day. Just need to keep going, it's a phase my body is going through and I'll come out of it eventually. Thanks for all the support, even if it's just reading your daily posts!
5/14 - Didn't weigh yesterday because we were up and out early. Just simply no time. I decided to have just a small little bit of ice cream but apparently my body reacts even worse now. Usually that little tiny bit will make me feel bloated and bleh but last night I was so sick, I thought I was going to vomit everywhere. Still don't feel the best (but I do feel better) and am super bloated. Although I know why and I made a conscious decision to do it, I'm not weighing so I don't mess myself up mentally. I'm also dehydrated from working the land yesterday. Although I drank a ton of water, it was impossible to keep up. Today, hopefully, is more of a lazy day so I can play catch up.

I was part of this challenge in the past but stopped pretty much everything - eating healthy, exercise, getting enough water, - you name it! I'm back to get my butt in gear. I came back to this group because everyone here is so supportive of each other!
Goal: 64oz water each day; row 30 mins 5 of 7 days each week; eat vegetables/fruit; 1200 to 1500 calories
Two days ago I finally got thru the day without sabotaging and bingeing - and no sugar for 2 days, which is my downfall because it keeps my cravings going.
5/10 - 183.1 - first day no sugar, started back rowing, drank 64oz water, ate lots of vegetables)
5/11 - 182.9 - kept all the good things going from yesterday)
Round 150
5/12 - 182.1 - still going strong - feeling more confident that I won't go on a binge - yay!
5/13 - 182.1 - my confidence is building and no sugar is helping tremendously!
5/14 - 181.2 - I'm happy to see this number but also know it may fluctuate up and down for a few days.
5/15 - 181.2
5/16 - 181.8 - still doing all the right things - looking for the 170's!
5/17 - 182.8 - hmmm....even though I know it's normal to fluctuate day to day, I don't have to like it. LOL. I stayed within my calorie limit every day, but had pasta too many days and I believe carbs make you hold water. Pasta is literally the only processed food I eat. I also had way too much salt so that habit needs to stop. I'm going to start adding 1/4 tsp to a lunch bag and sprinkle on from that to be mindful.

@tiabirdie56 Tish, thanks SOOOO much for the link to Dr. Fung’s post on carbs! I have added that to my “collection!” People think I’m nuts when I say I have VIRTUALLY eliminated carbs from my diet. Nope, not so.1

@tffanynbowen89 It’s hard when your SO isn’t on board. Be tough. Stick with it. He will EVENTUALLY notice the difference it is making in you and MAY come around. After almost 4 years of low carb and recently starting longer fasts, this weekend my husband said maybe he should be fasting too! I sort of forced him to go low carb when I quit buying crap. 😁3

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.

Hi @tffanynbowen89 - I love the way you put this: "crawl into a bowl of ice cream." It says it all and what I've done over the past year. I'm sorry your boyfriend isn't quite getting it. I hope he comes around, or maybe he'll compromise and get something you don't like (or even better, have him hide it). I had my husband hide the sugar recently. ha ha. He will also make oatmeal cookies with raisins because he knows I hate raisins. My willpower is much better and cravings subside some if I'm not "on" sugar - usually after about 4 days. Hang in there!! You are doing so well!!4 -

Day/Weight/Comment
05/11 …..208.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
05/12 …..208.4 ….. I am feeling super-charged and inspired. I hope this feeling lasts all day. No…..I hope it lasts for as long as I need it to. For some reason, this feels like ground zero! Good luck everyone on this round.
05/13 …..207.4 ….. I tried a little Intermittent Fasting again yesterday. It went well during it but I did have a small glucose drop last night which I handled well. I will try again today. I’m a lady in training again, I suppose. Feeling good again today. I am seeing my doctor again in about a month. She said she needs to see a dramatic change or I’ll have to start taking insulin shots (which I am fighting). She took my fasting glucose (I was extra good the days prior knowing she would) was 513. My AIC was 13.8 . Things are not good here, but they are about to improve. I am working on my diet but also on my stress levels too. Stress has been through the roof!
05/14 …..207.4 ….. Day 2 on the IF and it went well. Later, my daughter and DGS #4 moved back in due to her home problems. Last time we had a pretty bad argument and she had left, I think we will both try harder this time. She is looking for a rental but in this rural area that is few and far between. I’ll support her in any way I can. I just hope my diet doesn’t go askew now that normal meals will be needed for her and the 3 ½ year old.
05/15 …..206.6 ….. Another good drop. No sleep last night. Literally, not one hour. Tried to nap today but still no sleep. Then I realized I accidentally took my thyroid pill before bed. That explains it. Well, I should sleep good tonight! Celebrating my birthday from the 10th tomorrow with my daughters. A ladies spa day. I’m looking forward to it.
05/16 …..206.6 ….. I thought it would be lower. I had a perfect eating day yesterday. No bad snacks too (which is my nighttime weakness). However, it was a lazy rest day otherwise with my daughter and DGS staying the night with friends. Not much movement but I needed the rest from no sleep the night before. Today we celebrate my belated birthday. Spa day and dinner out. I will be very careful to keep up the progress.
05/17 …..206.8 ….. After multiple days of celebrations this week, I am happy with this number. Back to IF today and good choices.

I hope everyone is having a great 10 days! 45yo busy working mom here, gradually changing habits and mindset - friend me for accountability.
Heaviest - June 2011 - 290
Start Weight - March 2021 - 261.2
Round Start Weight - 255.2
Round Goal Weight - 254
Ultimate Goal Weight - 160, but I'll be ecstatic to be less than 200 again.
5/12
5/13 255.2 - I was super happy about this scale reading because I had been in a scale rut for a bit.
5/14
5/15 257.8 - I was so happy about the previous weight that I laid off the water drinking and made some unproductive food choices. Learning lessons is a NSV also. Lol
5/16 - 255.6 I had a pretty good day yesterday, especially for a weekend day. I even packed a smart lunch when I went to town to get groceries, so I wouldn't eat fast food for lunch. I was yearning for some fries, but I felt better for not getting them.
Stayed under my calorie goal.
Achieved my step goal and started using resistance bands.
Reached my water goal.
5/17 - 254.8 I had dinner at my parents, but took a meal to eat instead of eating what they were having - for a couple reasons ... They were having leftover brisket and making biscuits (I'm a biscuit fiend), and I have a subscription to Real Eats and needed to use up a meal before they start going bad.
I started yoga today and it went ok. I can see how it will be beneficial.
Stayed under my calorie goal.
Achieved my step goal, bands, and yoga (15min).
Reached my water goal.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/12: 110
5/13: 109, Got carried away finishing off a bag of tostitos last night, but at least calmed it down after, and didn't totally wreck my digestion for today.
5/14: 109.4, Some late night snacking again last night, too much stir fry from eating dinner late, then woke up and had a couple big bowls of oatmeal, and a few bites of cheesecake. Bad stomach ache from it, but slowed it down from there. Used the extra carbs as "fuel" for a run today.
5/15: 106.2, Was getting bad sugar cravings last night, had 3 reeses, then switched over to carrots and SF jello, not optimal, but slowly shifting away from the big night binges!
5/16: forgot to weigh myself, but had pasta, chips and binged on cookies while not home, so probably holding on to some weight
5/17: 110.6, sad honesty here, but I binged on starbucks pastries last night, stalled it, but woke up and middle of the night binges are the worst. Go figure! binging leads to weight gain. but keeping track and keeping myself accountable. Not knowing doesn't change anything. Still determined to get the ball rolling in the right direction.

😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
May focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 150- Maintain weight < 150
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals by keeping busy
Never give up! Never give in!
Recent Back Story:- 2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
- 2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
- 2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2021
- Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
- (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ Round 150 (round 82 for me ) I continue to prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.
Female age 63 5' 4” - Challenge again for this round; need to continue to head back to maintenance weight– get back to and stay at or >130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines in roadmap to normality for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – I've had my first, second is due this round.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/12 132.4 – 11.33 miles walked yesterday,calories well in credit. Little DGS more stable; started to reduce fast flow oxygen to see how he reacts, started milk feeds again & talk of moving him out of IC to HDU, fingers crossed he continues to improve.
5/13 132.4 – 13.83 miles walked yesterday, mostly to and from my vaccination volunteering session. Calories well in credit. DGS back on HDU, fetched him off diuretics after he passed a litre of urine as they don't want him to lose too much fluid too quickly, but now he has started to swell up again, so restarted lower dose & started him on a little solid food too which bowels seem to be tolerating, all positive, but still a long way to go!
5/14 132.4 – 4.34 miles walked yesterday; another day taking older DGS out for the day, calories over.
5/15 133.2 – 10.88 miles walked yesterday, calories under goal.
5/16 133.2 - 9.09 miles walked yesterday, calories under but carbs over due to pizza night.
5/17 133.6 – travelled up to take DGS out for the day, weather not good, hence no structured walking leading to calories being over. I have my second vaccination this morning (hurray !) Next stage of roadmap back to normality today; 6 people allowed to meet up indoors, pubs, restaurants, cinemas, theatres all open indoors again.
5/18 133.6 – 14.77 miles walked yesterday, calories well under (570). No side effects whatsoever from 2nd vaccine yesterday. Back at our dance class last night, so good to start to get back to some sort of normality & see everyone again as well as enjoy a really good dance! Go out with sisters today for a pub lunch indoors & we can actually hug too in this latest step of the UK progressing forward from Covid!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/12 - 195.0 (drizzly day; pulled 6 ticks off me yesterday, a new personal best/worst)
05/13 - 195.0 (weather looks promising; another hike through Tickland is scheduled for me and the dogs)
05/14 - 194.5 (another long hike scheduled for early afternoon; may try to take all 4 dogs, with 2 on long leads (give me patience); today I will remember my bug jacket, because the blackflies, though not yet biting, are flying around my face and it's annoying)
05/15 - 194.0 (sunny AND the weekend! More walking and gardening in my plans; also I don't recommend taking 4 dogs on a walk with 2 on long leads - DON'T DO IT - one was really ticked off and they kept getting tangled up; as well I forgot my bug jacket and had no free hands to swat flies away)
05/16 - 193.5 (hoping it'll clear up later; a long exploratory hike in the plans today; wish I knew more about eating wild plants; tried some goutweed (grown wild at an old collapsed house site) and it was nasty though it is supposed to be edible. Maybe it needs to be cooked.)
05/17 - 193.5 (the long hike was brilliant, a mostly grassy path winding through mixed forest; another 6 ticks on me, but I refuse to give up hiking the woods just because the tick population has exploded this year; just 2 months ago, a brisk 2-h hike would have killed me and I would have had to keep stopping to rest but now I can just keep on going so I know I'm making progress with my fitness. Of course it probably helps that I have 30 less pounds to haul around with me!)
05/18 - 193.5 (yard got checked out by a black bear last night, 6 and 1/2 hours ago, and the chihuahuas are STILL barking about it; probably will not get a woods walk in today because I have to go out)
