I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

My ten-day rolling average is near 208 right now, which is good for me. Trying to get down off the plateau.

May 10, 2021 - 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)

Next short-term goal: 162.X
169....168....167....166....165....164....163....162.X

SW: 167.1

8/20: 167.3 - The expected bouncing around after a loss.

8/21: 167.3 - Still sticking to 167.x and have not bounced back to 168.x! That is a win! If I stay the course, 166.x is any day now! IF 17 hrs. Row 20 mins only. Water - all I can say is I'm going to do better today.

180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's

If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!
There is no going back! NOT THIS TIME!

Hi all, this is my first round since rejoining after gaining about 30lbs in the last 3 years. This challenge has worked for me in the past and I'm so glad to see its still running, thank you @quiltingjaine !
I've been back on mfp since the start of July and was losing well until going on a couple of camping holidays this month where I relaxed a bit too much and am now back at the same weight as I was 4 weeks ago, with a few old bad habits that I need to crack.

Round 160 goal 8000 steps each day, hydrate!

08/18 - 168.2
08/19 - 166.8

Day/Weight/Steps from previous day/Comment

08/20 - 162.8 STEPS -19,850. Big drop from yesterday, hopefully that's the water weight from all the camping activities leaving. Didn't eat enough yesterday and lots of walking so I expect a bounce back up tomorrow. Not going to adjust Round GW just yet. Feeling tired today as only 4 hours sleep so it's going to be a slog to get the steps in.

08/21 - 163.2 STEPS - 10,771. Had more fibre than usual yesterday and not enough water so am not surprised to be back up a bit. Still below goal but no unhatched chickens counted yet. Rainy day and lots of housework so getting my steps in might be tricky.

I was after an elusive 85 lbs loss 😂 but 83 will do me fine.
• in Maintenance for over 2 years.
• Smart BMI - optimal weight.
• Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range

Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily. People are still dying out there………
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
August focus:

maintain weight < 150 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
Aims:

2021 Focus:

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

71 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...

...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

Kicked the uneven sidewalk...landed on my face...messed up my right knee, calf and ankle. No walking for a while.

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”, 60
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
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
GW: <200 in 2020 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)

🎯Mini Goal: <202 (Repeat until I hit it!)
Exercise Goal for this round: Bike, swim, and strength class once per week. Walk the dog 100 miles in August!

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.

* ROUND 160 (Aug 20 - Aug 29) Water, 80+ ounces daily, carbs at 30g, last meal(s) by 7pm., that seems to be what I end up at most days.

Hi all, this is my first round since rejoining after gaining about 30lbs in the last 3 years. This challenge has worked for me in the past and I'm so glad to see its still running, thank you @quiltingjaine !
I've been back on mfp since the start of July and was losing well until going on a couple of camping holidays this month where I relaxed a bit too much and am now back at the same weight as I was 4 weeks ago, with a few old bad habits that I need to crack.

Day/Weight/Steps from previous day/Comment

08/20 - 162.8 STEPS -19,850. Big drop from yesterday, hopefully that's the water weight from all the camping activities leaving. Didn't eat enough yesterday and lots of walking so I expect a bounce back up tomorrow. Not going to adjust Round GW just yet. Feeling tired today as only 4 hours sleep so it's going to be a slog to get the steps in.

08/21 - 163.2 STEPS - 10,771. Had more fibre than usual yesterday and not enough water so am not surprised to be back up a bit. Still below goal but no unhatched chickens counted yet. Rainy day and lots of housework so getting my steps in might be tricky.

08/22 - 161.0 STEPS 1,635. Really poor performance on the steps yesterday as I was stuck indoors on the computer all day. Not great with the food and drink either so I'm shocked to see another big drop today! I must've been holding on to a lot of water. Glad to be back at a weight from ten days ago, fingers crossed it doesn't swing back up again too far tomorrow!
