@ZizzyBumble I soo get you!! That is so cute!

4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3

I 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?!

Round 161 (round 93 for me ) as always, I need this to help keep me on track!
@QuiltingJaine- thank you yet again for setting up the new challenge.

Challenge for this round is to get back on track – any loss will be a win! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we have reached “freedom day”, but remember there is still a pandemic, continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in crowded indoor settings, always consider others.

8/29 135.2 - 0.8 pounds up from end of last round. Must admit I am struggling with my will power! Tomorrow is a new day and a new round! 6.28 miles walked yesterday.

Last round began straight after a camping activity holiday, ended after birthday celebrations and included my TOMO so it wasn't the best of circumstances for monitoring weight, with lots of retaining water and disruptions to my routine. Glad to have reached my goal but now ready to put August behind me and knuckle down. I have a 2.5lb loss goal this round, which might be too ambitious but I have a feeling I'm due a drop in the next day or so. We'll see! Exceeded my step goal total so I'm adding 500 more each day, also adding a sleep goal of 8hrs minimum per night to try and reduce stress levels and attempting to cut out alcohol for Sober September as this can be a real problem for me.

08/30 162.0 STEPS 13,606 SLEEP 8hr14m Didn't eat much yesterday as I was feeling pretty rough, lots of walking and standing around. A really great time with old friends and family but glad to get home and recover!

08/31 160.4 STEPS 8,426 SLEEP 8hr23m Low energy day again yesterday so a little short on steps. Went for a 3 mile walk in the afternoon which wiped me out. Really hungry in the evening and ended up snacking and had a couple of drinks. Feeling much fresher today so hopefully I'll get more activity in.

STEPS 22,032/85,000

Hi I weigh in kg and also record my happy scale trend. My maintenance goal weight is 52kg although I am happy to be a bit below to allow for indulgences!

I failed to complete round 158 and missed 159 and 160 and I’ve been gaining since round 155 👿. Time to get back to doing what I know I need to.

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

My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.

🔹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)

8/31 203.7 Walked 3.25 + 1 miles, 1568 cal, 172 net carbs, AF. Walked to the library to drop off my book Then another short walk in the evening after dinner with DH. FINISHED my 100 miles for August! I’m walking on the 31st anyway. Scale bumped up due to terrible choices for meals … breakfast - waffles & sausage; lunch - spaghetti & salad; dinner - Salisbury steak w/ rice & gravy & green beans. Few veggies and lots of carbs.

When my current weight drops below 200lbs, I'll begin adding my old stats back. When I could easily access my previous progress, it only added to my weight gain anxiety.

08/30 - 242.3 Another weekend, another weekend drop. I decided to stop running for now and go back to T25 to shift momentum a little. I started with the total body workout so I am sore everywhere and I broke my HIIT calorie record. I set my goal at 240 but if I could get to 239.1 and officially be 60 lbs down I would be so excited.
08/31 - 242.7 Not even a little worried about a fluctuation up. I looked at my chart of where I was last Tuesday and I'm 3.8 lbs down from then. So that's the lesson for the day. Day to day doesn't matter as long as you keep pushing and making yourself better. Another round of T25 this morning and walking is a chore now!

Actually DNW, but this is the average between what my last reading and today’s reading. (This is how I do it.)

I am back, and just in time! I just returned from a long weekend away where the fantasy of weight gain does not exist. Now I am back to reality, HA! This should peal off pretty fast.

8/30 235.2 (-.4) Yesterday, my sister and I hiked almost 6 miles. It felt great to get back in the groove after not exercising so much last week. I took time to assess why I was discouraged over the last few days and wrote this blog post. https://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/coblujay/view?id=the-weight-loss-grumps-a-twelve-week-update-995464 I never planned to give up, but this clarity has really helped me approach this next phase with more focus and a good plan.
8/31 235 (-.6) I ate late last night and didn’t get enough water. I was within my calorie goal so I’m expecting a decent loss tomorrow or Wednesday. Today I’m swimming and taking my dogs for a long walk. Feeling hopeful!!

Elbee1

4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3

I 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?!

8/30 136.6 - just starting this challenge. I recently lost about 25 lbs. by moving, logging, and staying under calorie goals. I slacked off over the summer months and gained a few pounds back. Just want to get right back on track. Hoping this 10 day challenge is the kick start I need!

8/30: 165.9 - This challenge has been around for almost 4 1/2 years and still going strong! THANK YOU to all of those that were around early on and kept this going, and now sharing your experience and knowledge with others! 4 1/2 years is a testament to just how much this challenge helps so many in countless ways!

8/31: 165.8 - I drank 80oz of water 8 days in a row. I broke my streak with only 56oz yesterday. A year ago I was lucky to get in 16oz. The NSV is it doesn't feel like a chore any longer.

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!

I had some ice cream last night, but apparently it’ll be ok and I’m back on track today. I can’t believe August is almost over. I do love the fall, though, even if it’s full of calorie bombs! It’s a lovely morning here, so I’m off for a walk.

8/31 - 186.8 (187.3) - 1209
It’s a gorgeous morning here — mid-70s, low humidity, clear sky. Lovely! It’s the last day of my summer vacation — back to a serious writing schedule as of tomorrow. Today I’m prepping what I want to work on, going for a long walk to get my creative head straight, and doing some garden cleanup that I’ve let slide in the high heat & humidity. Here are some roses for you from my garden. Wish you could smell them!

@fmfdfa2020 I didn’t know exactly when these challenges had started. By Round 7, when I joined, @hillcrestbaby had left and @cynda63 was doing the initial posting. I think @GrandmaJackie started then with one or a few rounds started by @TerriRichardson112, @tiabirdie56 or myself. Thank you for the little history!

08/31 - 147.8 - Better. Not perfect, but I didn't expect to drop all the way back down in one day. Don't feel quite as heavy and bloated as I did yesterday. Got about 75 oz water in. Today, aiming for 90oz. Street tacos for dinner tonight and have to stock up on some things (we did a kitchen clean, including tossing old condiments and such from the fridge). Will get me some veggies for lunches. Work gave us $150 for a year of Safety (no recordable incidents or work vehicle accidents) which will help (thankfully, I need it this month! My paychecks are not aligned well with bills due this month or next....I miss having my 1st/15th paychecks) Still no running, still achy and it was sprinkling rain. I'm feeling back on track now.

08/30 - Have not been good with water AT ALL. Food has been on the go and high salt. Was super sad to see 150s yesterday, but glad to be back down. Heavily pushing water today to get back down. Definitely feeling this weekend today. No running, I'm super achy from the rain/storms that rolled in and out this weekend.

@fmfdfa2020 I didn’t know exactly when these challenges had started. By Round 7, when I joined, @hillcrestbaby had left and @cynda63 was doing the initial posting. I think @GrandmaJackie started then with one or a few rounds started by @tiabirdie56 or myself. Thank you for the little history!

And hopefully keep going for a long time to come! I love this group

🤔Has anyone tried the TikTok baked feta pasta recipe? I've heard it's delicious. I think I'll try it this week with zucchini noodles.

Yum. Let us know how it is. I have a bunch of zucchini I need to use up!

@CamandJarvis I love this group, too! I appreciate people thanking me or anyone for starting the new rounds and as I’ve said before, I do it because I need it. Even after 4 years, I could so easily go off the rails.

@deepwoodslady Turn that zucchini into zoodles! My DH likes them better than real pasta now! I wish I could grow them here!
