You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.Female, 5’3”, 60R157 20210730 205.6 (-1.5)
Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug

GW: <200 in 2021 BMI 35.2
UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
8/20 203.0 Walked 4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1590 cal, 76 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Cooking class with friends where we made Fruit Empanadas, Paella Mixta, Tortilla Española. Exercised and fasted through breakfast but obviously not enough. Expected bump up after 4 evenings in a row eating at restaurants with friends. Gearing up for damage control and not let this be an excuse to continue to backslide.
8/21 204.6 Walked 4 miles, Swam 500m + treaded water 12 min, 2003 cal, 110 net carbs, 3 glasses wine, >100 oz water. Great exercise day but snacked on way to many nuts, fries at lunch & rice at dinner. But wow the continued rise in the scale is worrying me!
8/22 203.6 Walked 4.5 + .5 miles, 1568 cal, 71 net carbs, AF. Planning fall road trip and kitchen remodel.
8/23 203.5 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1521 cal, 110 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lazy day.
8/24 203.7 Walked 3 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1656 cal, 156 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Cousin came in from Florida and we went to my sister’s for crawfish étouffée and wine … but I insisted on going to my exercise class before meeting up with them.
No swimming laps for a couple of weeks since they closed the olympic size lap pool for maintenance.
Thinking about signing up for twice per week strength classes in September to prep for hiking plans in Oct. The lunge part of the routine has made me much better at going up and down steps at home.
8/25 201.9 Walked 2.4 miles, 1255 cal, 117 net carbs, AF. Walked first thing in the morning, breakfast, donated blood & cleaned out a few kitchen cabinets … all before lunch! Then yard work and more cabinets in the afternoon.
8/26 203.1 Walked 3.6 +1 miles, gardening, 1794 cal, 143 net carbs, AF. Errand day in the afternoon … library, dry cleaners, groceries, gas, and tried on tons of bras until I found my new favorite.
NSV: New sports bras & bras ✔️(Aug 2021)
8/27 203.6 Walked 1.3 miles, 2108 cal, 135 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Scan of leg veins to determine swelling in one ankle + 1st shot of Shingrix (shingles) Vaccine. Needless to say eating fried chicken for lunch and then Italian dinner out did not soothe my feelings or help my progress on the scale. Rain and low energy yesterday and today.
8/28 203.0 Walked 3.2 + .7 miles, 1496 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Headache & fatigue kicked my butt after the Thursday shingles vaccine … read & slept a ton. Feeling better this morning.

4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3I started mfp on 2/20/11 at 160.2 lbs.
My lowest weight on mfp was 140 lbs in 11/2013 and 5/2014.
My highest weight ever: 168+ (and I wasn't even pregnant at that time... ) That was in 12/2016.
Just for the record used to be an athlete a long, long time ago. Used to teach Aerobics and Step Aerobics. Used to LOVE exercise.
Nowadays, I don't exercise at all. Why, oh why not? How can I go from loving exercise and doing tons of exercise to nothing at all?
Going from low blood pressure to being on medication for high blood pressure. What have I done to myself?!

8/29
I've now had 4 days in a row without binging on food. I've done pretty darn good with food. Hardly any chocolate. I hope that I can stay in the 157s one more day and end this Round on a good note.
Still need to add in any exercise at all. Even one minute! Also, although I've been hitting my minimum of water... it's time to add in some more. I am starting off slowly. Another thing that I still need to work on is more sleep.
I still have tons of stress, but it has definitely been a better week this week. I still think about my sweet dog...
Also, although my stress has actually increased at work due to much more on my plate, now, (got a promotion 2 days ago)... my stress of being let go at any single moment has been alleviated. I have been very late every day for months now and have taken so much time off due to responsibilities involving my parents... The promotion has made me feel more worthy as far as job goes... and has increased my motivation. Rather than seeing myself as unproductive and walking on egg shells with a boss who can switch gears, change his mind, say 1 day how he wants something done & the next...instruct the opposite, have attitude & emotions change within minutes, I am more relaxed. It helps also that I do know deep inside that he is a good person & means well. So I have a more positive attitude and feel a little more relaxed. It's only been a couple days, but I am happier & much more focused at work.

I expected the uptick after last night’s pitch-in with my creativity group. Really great food, definitely not for weight loss! But that’s okay once in a while. All good!
8/21 - 188.7 - 1547
Ok, that’s Thursday evening speaking. Yesterday wasn’t perfect but also wasn’t awful. Today is all planned out. All good! Happy Saturday!

Had a lot of salt yesterday, then a lot of water, so I think it’s evening out. It’s already getting sticky hot out at 9:30, so I’m off for a walk before it becomes unbearable. Nice rain last night, so my garden is happy! Have a good Sunday.

With the oppressive heat the past few days I’m not getting much exercise. I started to walk yesterday morning, but felt woozy and came home. I had heat stroke decades ago when I was teaching in Tunisia and I’m still pretty sensitive to overheating. Anyway, trying to watch it and move around the house as much as possible. Not the same as a nice walk! Stay cool,and saf3 out there!
8/26 - 188.7 - 1621
Spent all morning at the ER with DH. He’s fine. Waiting for lab work but probably just a very painful UTI. Boy does that throw a wrench into the morning! Probably cut my calories for the day, though, with no breakfast!

Back to normal this morning.

Ok, this round may not be a bust after all! It’s a gorgeous morning here, although headed for hot. Getting my walk and gardening in right now. Happy Saturday, all!

@SheilaBoneham I hope that your DH is better. (UTIs can be very, very serious. ) Sorry you had to take him to the ER and undergo the stress of that experience. Hopefully, it wasn't that bad...
Hugs,

8/20 DNW - On vacation - still tracking and trying to stay under maintenance calorie levels. Lots of walking and good fun.
8/21 DNW - We’ve been hiking, but not exercising at my usual intensity. I’m really going to be interested to see how I’ve managed without a scale to keep me on track. I won’t be weighing in until Tuesday.
8/22 DNW - Still on vacation. I had my indulgence meal yesterday. Today we are kayaking. I’m really looking forward to it!
8/23 DNW - Final day of vacation. I’ll be weighing in tomorrow. Overall, my eating has been pretty good…under maintenance levels for most days. Keeping my fingers crossed. We have been walking and hiking. Kayaking was cancelled due to high water levels.
8/24 235.6 (-1.4) I’m thrilled to be down almost a pound and a half after visiting my son and being off my usual routine. Hiking every day, limited eating out and logging most meals was really helpful. My son was really encouraging me to stay on track and was happy making meal decisions based on what I needed. It's great to have such wonderful support.
8/25 235 (-2.0) Yay! Officially down 10% of my body weight. The pool where I was swimming closed for the season and hours are really limited at other pools so I need to reevaluate and adapt my exercise plan. My local indoor pool opens in late September. I’ve really enjoyed swimming and want to continue. Until then, it might be Orange Theory Fitness and hiking on the weekends, pending weather.
8/26 235.6 (-1.4) A little bit of a bounce after eating later than usual yesterday and I’m not sure I drank enough water. I’ll fix that today.
8/27 235 (-2.0) I did my research and found an indoor pool that will work. Yesterday, for the last time this year, I swam outside at a pool that opened later in the afternoon. They only had two lap lanes, so I was sharing a lane. I’ve never done that before and I was a bit nervous since I’m not an experienced lap swimmer, but it worked out okay. I was previously swimming for an hour, but needed to limit my time to a half hour. Still glad I made it and got in a good workout. Today is my indulgence meal, so I’ll see a bit of a bump in the next few days.
8/28 235.2 (-1.8) Today, it feels like I’m losing in slow motion. I did have my indulgence meal yesterday and knew there would be a bump, but looking at the overall journey, I’m a bit frustrated. It’s funny how one day you can be focused and the next day, discouraged. I’m almost three months in and down 25.8 pounds. I’ve still been hoping for 2 pounds a week and things are slowing down. This is the point where I need to keep believing and trust the process.8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
08/19 …..187.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
08/20 …..186.6 ….. (trend weight 189.6) My new low since before Covid. I’m dreaming of the 170’s. It may be awhile but it is within reach before Christmas if I stay committed and on track! Wishing everyone the very best of luck and circumstances this round. Let’s do this!
08/21 …..186.8 ….. (trend weight 189.3) My renovation handmen were here until late (9:30 pm). One helped prime my well pump and it’s still working this morning! Hopeful! I didn’t get in the walks I wanted and my dinner was very late and eaten in bed. Frozen pizza filled with sodium so I am happy the scale isn’t going crazy on me this morning. I finally settled in at about 11:30 pm to an Episode of Columbo which is one of my greatest pleasures. I had a heckofaday (with water problems and drywall dust) and deserved all two hours of it! Today I have pulled pork going in the crock pot to share with the workers.
08/22 …..185.4 ….. (trend weight 188.9) That’s better! Ended up having dessert last night which was unnecessary really. A double whammy – A little too much and totally of the wrong thing but the scale was still kind to me this morning. It was probably catching up to some good days a few days ago. Today is my DGD’s 1st birthday. She is about 65 miles away so there’s a tad bit of travel and there will be food and cake. I expect an uptick tomorrow but a wonderful day today! I will consider today my higher calorie day to keep my metabolism from dropping. Making it part of my plan instead of against it will help keep me in check in the coming days.
08/23 …..187.4 ….. (trend weight 188.8)The birthday party was fantastic for my DGD turning age 1. So beautiful with lots of things for toddlers to do (trampoline, kiddie pool, castle playing, bouncy house etc). Food was catered and delicious. I didn’t eat much real food yesterday, mostly junk. The cake was so sweet that, even after taking off most of the frosting, my teeth almost fell out. I felt like I died and went to heaven, truthfully. It was the land of milk and honey. Abundance. So…..two pounds later, I am planning an extra good day today. I’ll never forget her birthday celebration, but I will forget these 2 pounds. They will be gone before the end of this round!
08/24 …..187.4 ….. (trend weight 188.6) Still trending down and still below starting weight which is goal met. Yesterday I remained under calorie and with pretty decent macros. However, I didn’t drink enough water and I must have crawled like a snail or a turtle (at best) all day because I got in basically zero extra activity. So I am not surprised by no change on the scale. I will try to some lower carb healthier choices today and see what happens. On a positive note, today was morning 4 with water (and without priming well). Perhaps they’ve finally got the right settings!
08/25 …..187.0 ….. (trend weight 188.5) I am going out of town in a little while unexpectedly. Rain is due and the planned outside project is on hold for the day so it’s a perfect day to go buy the power/pressure washer I need. Lunch will be out, probably Chinese or Thai food. I drink less water when I am away from home, but I’ll try to get in extra tonight and tomorrow to offset the sodium. I do expect a temporary uptick on the scale tomorrow but temporary is the key word here…..
08/26 …..188.4 ….. (trend weight 188.5) After my travel day yesterday….I deserve this. Feeling very very very tired and sluggish today……I deserve that too!
08/27 …..xxxxx ….. (trend weight xxxxx) Early travel today to take a friend for a medical procedure where she’ll be knocked out. Forgot to weight before sucking down coffee. Lunch will be at the hospital cafeteria but they usually offer some decently healthy things for on-the-go so hopefully it won’t be too bad.
08/28 …..188.4 ….. (trend weight 188.4)Finally my scale weight and trend weight match. I just wish it was about 40 pounds lower lol. Travel yesterday and I did pretty good overall on the diet front. Just a serious lack of movement and water though. I have creeped above my start weight due to the birthday party and several days of travel. I don’t know if I can hit goal in 24 hours (any weight loss at all is my goal). I’ll get as close as I can by trying to have a good food day. However, it is thunderstorming so no walks. Extra workers will be here today for the renovations so no privacy. I plan on going up & down my stairs to at least get a little exercise/movement in. Everything counts!
08/29 …..xxxxx ….. (trend weight xxxxx)

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.

8/20 DNW Dinner yesterday (my only meal) didn’t happen until about 9PM, steak, broccoli at Outback. Today chef’s salad for lunch and pizza, pasta and breadsticks for dinner. Ate topping from 3 slices and 1/2 breadstick and iceberg salad.

I have some serious life changes coming up. I just got a job, that is full-time AND a day shift. I am eager to start. After a couple of months it will mean I am getting out of here!7 -
@SheilaBoneham I hope that your DH is better. (UTIs can be very, very serious. ) Sorry you had to take him to the ER and undergo the stress of that experience. Hopefully, it wasn't that bad...
Hugs,
Elbee1
Thanks, @Elbee1 . He’s fine. The ER had only two other people in the waiting room, an allergic reaction and a foot injury, so the stress from that was minimal.5 -

8/23: 164.6 Re-entry back to the real world today...vacations were wonderful but glad to be home and get back to exercising. Ten days eating/drinking what I wanted (in moderation), no tracking, no formal exercises (but kept active) equals a total gain of 0.3 (was 164.3 at start of vacation). Calling that a HUGE success!! Back focused on weight loss today:)

Super busy week getting ready for back to school but will make time today to get some exercise in, even though it's super hot! I'm ready for some cooler running weather, fall running is my favorite!
8/28: 163.5
Surprised with this loss, after dinner last night my rings did not feel as loose as normal, so I was sure I was going to see a spike on the scale today. Spending this last weekend before school starts being super lazy...not looking forward to the super, super early wake up time on Monday to get my daughter off to school. Will be getting up almost 3 hours earlier, my brain tells me to use this extra time to go on a run or walk when she gets on the bus, so that I am starting the day off right. We'll see if my sleep deprived body will agree to that!
