We ended up going virtual for the class since we are a healthcare system and are following strict guidelines to prevent you know what. Looking forward to a walk this warm evening.

🔹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)

OSW: 186 (March 2018)
Maintenance: 140-145 (December 2018)
My 123rd Round!
Still trying to get back down to maintenance. It's really surprising how the extra 3 to 4 pounds I've been carrying the past few months has changed how my clothes fit and how I feel. I've had just enough stress to snack too much and not be mindful of getting back to maintenance. Things are looking up for my family health wise, so it's now time to focus back on my health.
Being overweight is hard.
Maintaining a healthy weight is hard.
Choose your hard.
After losing 12 lbs. I was stuck at 174lbs. for a couple weeks until I found this challenge.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/09 - 147 - Calories were good and took a long walk with the dog and husband.
9/10 - 147 - I'm holding myself accountable to track all my food this weekend.
9/11 - 147.5 - Just a bounce, but my supper tonight will probably show up tomorrow. Plenty of carbs and salt.
9/12 - 146.5 - Okay, so last night's supper will probably show up tomorrow. But it's nice to see this number today.
9/13 - 146 - My husband started his 3 mile run yesterday morning and had a bad calf strain after a mile and had to come limping home. He wanted to take the dog on a mile walk in the park with me in the afternoon, so halfway through that walk I was distracted by an ambulance stopping at a neighbor's house and managed to step in a hole. I heard my ankle crunch as I went down. Luckily, no breaks but we looked like the walking wounded taking the dog back home. I'll have to reduce my eating to compensate for the lack of steps this week.
9/14 - 146 - My ankle was pretty sore yesterday, so I didn't even manage 4,000 steps, but it already feels better this morning, so I'm hoping to get more movement in today.
9/15 - 145 - Although I expect a bounce tomorrow, I am so happy because I've not seen this weight for 3 months. Weighing and logging all my food is key for me to stay on track.

SW: 204.6 (9/8)
GW: 165
Day 1 9/9: 204.4 (-0.2) Not surprising given my chicken sandwich binge yesterday. Hoping today is a little easier. I go riding today and that means I can have Starbucks so I’m hoping the built in “cheat” will tide me over for another day or two.
Day 2 9/10: 203.6 (-0.8) Man I need to go riding more 😅 Stayed on track yesterday with my Starbucks cheat “meal” (coffee and scone) pre-ride. Told my instructor we need to work on MY stamina so did a lot of posting trot on Big Mare (only 3 spooks and 1 bolt attempt!). Managed not to pull every muscle in my back this time as Big Mare was sooooo much better about using HER back and not getting so heavy on the forehand in her canter. Good day overall. They added mirrors to the arena so now I get an additional visual cue as to how far I have to go 😐
Day 3 9/11: 203.8 (+.2) Yesterday was hard. I had a major craving for pizza, even opened the app on my phone to order one, but somehow I got through it. And even though I stuck to the plan I still gained a little. I know it’s probably not a real gain but I still hate to see it. A bit worried it will happen again today especially since I have a lot of errands to run and feeling a little low.
Day 4 9/12: 202.8 (-1.0) Back on the slow slide after whatever happened yesterday. Wound up not running errands yesterday because I waited too long and was afraid I’d cave to fast food. So I went grocery shopping early this morning and managed to walk away without any take out or junk food. Here’s hoping the cravings stay away today!!!
Day 5 9/13: 202.6 (-0.2) Super stressed and anxious yesterday over other people’s decisions and work. I go in for neuropsych testing tomorrow to rule out ADD and then hopefully get on some better psych meds. I’m at the client site today and I’m hoping we can bail out to WFH around noon. If not we always get Chipotle or Qdoba for lunch but I was so stressed yesterday I was 600+ calories below my goal so I’m trying not to freak out over the idea of lunch if it happens. My main worry is it’ll reopen the door to CRAVINGS (plus the sodium induced uptick). There’s just no good way to refuse to go to lunch with your teammates 😔 And we are a team. Also, bloated this morning.
Day 6 9/14: 202.6 (zero change) Mentally EXHAUSTED yesterday from anxiety. Client got pushy yesterday and I had to tag in the manager. Set my anxiety off into HIGH gear. Even pinged the manager “Am I just stupid” even though I knew what I was doing - my anxiety had just taken over and I couldn’t deal. Almost like a panic attack like the days of yore. Wound up going home around 10:30 and supposed to be working from home but wound up sleeping-ish most of the day. Focus was shot. Thankfully things are slow on my end right now. Going for neuropsych testing this morning so I’m hoping we can narrow things down to a drug that will help. Ate two chicken sandwiches from Wendy’s that I picked up on the way home yesterday and I don’t have the capacity for regret 😅 Just glad I already went to the store on Sunday so I didn’t pick up any chips, frozen pizza, or TWIX. Hoping for a better day today re nutrition.
Day 7 9/15: 204.6 Wooooo bad day eating wise yesterday. I know some of that is water weight. Ate an entire Red Barron pizza (picked of the pepperoni) and an entire small bag of fun size Twix. Didn’t log it because it doesn’t really matter - I’m not going to kill myself to make up those calories lol. Just need to start again today!!

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?!

Do your best and it will happen!
9/9
158 did well with diet & exercise, yesterday.
9/10 156.8 Very stressful day, yesterday. Had wreck on the way to work. I'm ok, but was kinda in shock & couldn't think straight & couldn't keep from shaking. Finally was able to take a picture of other cars license plate. Lady ran stop sign & rear ended me pretty hard. I didn't even think to tell the police that she ran the stop sign & then moved her car back after she hit me. Lady said she moved it to get it out of traffic... First wreck in 17 years... when someone else ran a stop sign & t-boned my vehicle. That was a worse wreck than than this one. Also, I had woken up about 3 or 4 in the morning with a terrible migraine. Work was also very stressful, yesterday.
9/11 156.8 I know it will catch up with me. I had a binge last night. Another very stressful day, yesterday... work was bad stress & also got a call from the SNF that my Dad is in. Dad bleeding internally so he was sent to the Hospital ER. He's responsive & stable, they just can't handle this type of issue at the SNF.
9/12 156 Yay! I done good yesterday with exercise, water & food. Dad still in hospital.
9/13. 157 did pretty darn good yesterday with food. No binging. But knew it would catch up with me from the other binges a fewdays ago. Did exercise. Drank more water than usual 48 oz. Surpassed my minimum water goal for this week. 10,000 steps. My goal is 8,000 & I don’t do that very often. And rarely 10,000 steps. I’m still highly motivated that this is my time to lose weight! I am taking it slowly but am very determined. Dad still in hospital & still don’t know what’s causing internal bleeding.
9/14 157 Again did pretty good. No exercise though. Had a 3 extra small handfuls of cashews last night. Drank my minimum of water: 40 oz., Very stressed. Not sleeping well the last few nights. headachey... but no migraine.
9/15 157 Yesterday was a very stressful day. Both work & other. I ate way too much last night -- late dinner. Drank 40 or 48 oz. not sure which... but at least my minimum. No exercise, again! Hope to get some in, today... Today I am beginning the day full of anxiety. Must find someone to help me to get parent's benefits & insurance straightened out. I'm not doing well... I'm floundering.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/09 - 238.1 Not too surprised by a slight increase with my food intake yesterday. Working 12 hour days and still getting a T25 workout and walking the dogs in the evening. Now that MFP says I'm 51% to my goal I'm more motivated than ever. Only 49% to go!
09/10 - 238.5 Again, not overly surprised. Chinese for lunch and then a hearty dinner followed by no trips to the bathroom... Anyway got a great ab workout in this morning and plan on a nice walk tonight headed into the weekend! Here's to a drop come Monday.

I'm in the last week of T25 Alpha round so I have 3 rounds of the hardest workout this week so hopefully that helps. I also bought shoes for our Peloton bike so I can get some extra workouts in. Just have to remember I'm doing everything right and the numbers will come when they're ready.
09/14 - 237.7 It's starting to feel like this will be a flat round with only 4 days to go and that's okay! Some rounds have big losses and some rounds smaller. I'm just learning to take these flat days/weeks as mental health time to reflect on being in a better place than I was 4.5 months ago. Only had T25 abs this morning so if I don't get up and moving at work today I may hop on the Peloton and get that extra burn.
09/15 - 236.8 My first day down in weight this round! Definitely got some help from my second round of T25 Total Body. No matter how many times I do that workout, it'll knock me out. Burned 400 calories in 25 minutes and feeling great. Today is my last long day at work for a few weeks so the rest of the week I can get Peloton rides AND T25 in hopefully. I have a 5:30am Peloton ride scheduled for Saturday and I'm pretty psyched.

Quite the yoyo. Thankful for the lows. Getting excited about my northern Wisconsin fishing trip. In the past, this has also been an eating trip. We all bring food to share. We have talked about de-emphasizing that aspect of things this year. Talk is cheap.

It’s Friday! Starting tomorrow, the more the fish are biting, the less I will be biting.

Back at it! This reading is amazing considering…..
Had a great time with uncles and cousin on the trip. Not a lot of salad consumed. Ha! Went up there for crappie and caught some but nowhere near the limit. I did boat a very nice walleye that hit my crappie bait.
Pumpkin Festival starts today.
I will try top catch up with the 135 posts I missed. 😊

9/11 210 After a day on antibiotics due to tooth pain, I got in for an evaluation with an endodontist, who is going to re-treat a two year old root canal, but can't schedule me in until Oct 6th. Suddenly, my concern about weight loss shifted to pain control! I was exhausted after driving to the big town with an endo since my brother who I'm visiting lives out in the boonies. Sleep & rest are restorative.

9/14 214.4 going in the wrong direction! I swam yesterday & felt the effects of endorphins, but was really hungry after swimming. Sadly my planned meals weren't satiating enough, so I overate. Today is a new day. I commit to eating only my planned portions today. Revised goal for this challenge is to be at or close to the weight at which I started this challenge. Dang that means I'll need to lose 3 pounds in 4 days!
9/15 211 still amazes me how much we can lose (or gain) in a day!

36YO F on my second round! I once tipped the scales at 395. I’ve done a lot of hard work with IF to get to where I am now, and came to MFP to finally see my goal come to fruition. These 10 day challenges are great. I can do anything for 10 days!
SW: 223.4
UGW: 150lbs
Challenge goals: lose as many lbs as I can! Stay under 100g net carbs. Get my exercise in!
9/9 223.4- Ended the day yesterday with 80g net carbs, plenty of water, and got my strength training in. I’m a bit upset this morning as I’m UP by 1.8lbs from yesterday, despite staying pretty perfectly on plan. I have no explanation aside from some still lingering PMS effects?! It’s been 9 days of this now though, and I’m tired of it. Blah. Still, I rise.
9/10 223.4- No loss, but no gain either. Got a Peloton ride in last night. 63g net carbs. Everything done just as it should be. Eventually the scale will catch up.
9/11 Camping 🏕 DNW had a successful day yesterday. Got my strength training session in before lunch yesterday, which means I did not make excuses to skip it like I did last time we left on a Friday to go camping! I didn’t get all of my steps in for the day, but I did manage to finish the day with 69g net carbs, even with some rice at dinner. Overall, I’m feeling good, and it’s nice to have a small break from the scale too.
9/12 Camping 🏕 DNW Had another great day. I made a plan for this weekend, and I stuck to it. There really is value in preplanning my meals, especially in cases such as a weekend away camping. I’ll definitely be doing it for every camping trip here on out. Net carbs were 63g for the day, and we got some walking in so I hit my step goal. I feel way less bloated today, so I’m positive tomorrow the scale will show some downward movement for a change!
9/13 221.0 Woohoo! The bloat is mostly gone! Time to make some big progress before it strikes again! Yesterday was a great day- 64 net carbs and got my steps in. Bring on the week! I’m ready!
9/14 219.2 FINALLY! I’ve been waiting to see 219 for two weeks!! Had a great day yesterday, obviously. Did both a strength training session and a 35 minute Peloton ride, and finished yesterday with 53 net carbs. Next mini goal: 210!
9/15 218.0 Yay! It feels so good to be past that hormonal stall. Had a great day yesterday- Pelo ride done, 51 net carbs, lots of water, and hit my step goal. Today is pizza day for dinner, so I’m already planning out my food to make sure I keep under 100 net carbs without missing out on the pizza, and it’s looking good. Bring on this day!

9/09 - 229.4 (-.2) Working out at Orange Theory Fitness today. I love these challenges. They keep me motivated and moving forward. Wishing everyone a fabulous next ten days.
9/10 - 229.2 (-.4) Yesterday was my indulgence meal, pizza. Making a long story as short as possible, instead of eating the three pieces I usually eat, I stopped at one and a half pieces. It was a huge disappointment. I love this pizza from one of my favorite places and this time it was a mushy mess. I was mad. What a waste of an indulgence meal. So what did I do? Continue to eat the rest of the evening. It was probably my worst eating day since I started this journey and I was fully expecting to get up and weigh in five pounds more this morning. I was kicking myself all night and my stomach was upset on top of it. I had failed. What mind games! It’s one day out of one hundred maybe? I logged everything (almost 3000 calories). Lucky I don't keep junk food around or it could have been worse. I expect a bump in the next few days, but I’m getting back on track today. Swimming is on the agenda.
9/11 - 229.2 (-.4) While I was swimming yesterday, I thought about the mind games of losing weight. I seem to panic on and off and I think that’s because I wonder, after many failures at losing and regaining, is this the beginning of doing that all over again? I’m determined that this time, things are going to be different. That’s why I’m in this challenge and active on the forums. I’m not in this journey alone and there are so many successful people cheering us on and offering us real life examples of what worked for them. I’m going to trust the process and keep moving forward. Thanks for the great support!
9/12 - 229.8 (+.2) There’s the bump I’ve been expecting. Limited exercise yesterday and no hiking today, with my sister out of town. I'm taking my dogs to a "Doggie Plunge" today as a fundraise for Freedom Service Dogs. After they close the waterpark for the year after Labor Day, it's used for the dogs to play in before they drain it. So much fun!!
9/13 - 228.2 (-1.4) In my head, getting under 230 is a big deal for me. The next mind goal is losing more than 40 pounds (221) and then weighing under 216. There are sometimes odd mini-goals that mean something big to us individually for a variety of reasons. For this week, I’m celebrating weighing under 230. After that, I’m focusing on losing 41!!
9/14 - 228.2 (-1.4) Today I’m back to the pool and then to my art studio to paint. It’s going to be a good day.
9/15 - 226.6 9 (-2.8) I’ve been focusing on getting my water in, staying under my calories goals and solid exercise. This was a nice surprise this morning.13 -
*ROUND 162 (Sept 9 - Sept 18) Water, 80+ ounces daily, carbs at 30g, last meal(s) by 7pm., that seems to be what I end up at most days.

Went on a run with my husband early yesterday morning. I run more consistently and further than he does, he's only an occasional runner. There is quite a height difference (he's 6'3 and I'm barely 5'4), so his stride is much bigger than mine but I usually have no issue keeping pace with him - not yesterday. He was on fire and I was not feeling it! Maybe it will take a few runs to get my body used to runny early morning instead of mid-day. But still happy, to have a running partner!
9/10 = 162.8
Core workout yesterday, feeling a little sore but the DOMS will pass...The scale will most likely start moving again as the soreness lessens. Slept in this morning instead of running early a.m. with my husband, just couldn't make myself do it. Will run mid-day instead, it's beautiful weather for it too!
9/11 = 163.3
No reason for this uptick, just a random body fluctuation I guess. Not worried as am on track with all my goals. Yesterday was a good running day, got lots of water, fasted 18 hours, no alcohol. Have a big full body strength workout planned for today + maybe a long walk as well.

Good run yesterday in much cooler temps, can feel that fall is coming! Yoga + a long walk scheduled for today.

The “new puppy diet” seems to be working. Actually what’s working is the photo of me & DH with the puppy when he arrived. I’m so fat! I seem to have stopped evening snacking cold turkey. A bit of “fizzy water” fools me into thinking I’ve had something.

I took Rory for his first tracking session yesterday and he did great. Tracking (following human scent trails) is great exercise for both of us — right now he’s doing very short tracks, of course, but soon the tracks will be longer. I train with a friend, so in addition to walking behind Rory when he’s tracking, I walk tracks for my friend’s dog to follow. We’d do tracks two or three times a week. That plus lots of puppy walks and obedience training will get my butt in gear! Am I blathering about my puppy? Yes, yes I am! 😁

Funnily enough, after a week of no snacks at night (or any time), I’m no longer hungry at night. Yay! Now if I can keep it up….
9/14 - 184.4 (184.3) - 1248
I take that back. I was hungry last night and indulged in some chocolate fudge ice cream. But that will do me for a while, and I’m skipping breakfast this morning — not particularly hungry. 😁
9/15 - 184.4 (184.2) - 1046
I’ve no idea why my running average is lower than my weight, but who am I to argue with Happy Scale?

9/15 - 145.8 - Making progress here. Back to starting weight for the round. Went for a run this morning but it was interrupted by 3 things - my Fitbit died (I use that to track mileage and keep myself going if I haven't reached at least 1 mile), my headphones with my podcast that keeps me distracted from my lungs screaming, and then half mile in, TMI attacked. So I really did 2 runs, each 1/2 mile today with a break between to take care of my issues. Sigh. At least it's something. Better than nothing at all. My 10k is Sunday for Guiness World Record attempt so need to get mileage up, even if I walk some. Next 5k race is October 31st so I can build up to running in that time so long as I get the mileage down with alternating walk/run.

Previous Day's Comments9/09 - Wowza, did not see that coming. But yesterday was a light day on food, didn't munch on too awful much through the day. Bagel for breakfast, leftover garlic parmesan baked chicken for lunch, and beef stew for dinner. 90oz water. Have some leftover beef stew for lunch today. FamWife is having an event tonight so likely eating out to go support her. Will try to keep things in check there. Went for a run this morning. Fitbit Premium has their trial at 90 days so I signed up for it and did a little core/glute and stretching workout video from that. Excited to see how it goes and if it'll be worth keeping after the trial ends in December.
9/10 - Expected with eating out. Not many "healthy" options but I chose the healthiest one that I knew I'd eat (I HATE chicken salad and that's about the only other thing on there decently balanced). It was still a tad greasy, hence the pop up in weight. Plus the 2 beers I had. But managed 90oz water despite all that. Was supposed to go on a coffee date today with the girls but work blew up for all of us. Instead, I made myself a breakfast sandwich and a homemade hazelnut vanilla latte with extra shot of espresso. Cafe vibes from home! Fitbit premium is kicking my butt. Literally. Have a Glute&Core series (3x/week, 3 weeks long) I did day 1 yesterday. Seemed like I wouldn't get much out of it. But HOLY MOLY this morning was my booty sore. Did another this morning along with a 1 mile run, though. Unsure dinner but lunch will be the last of the leftover beef stew. Pretty excited about that. Need to dig in to what else the premium offers, like nutrition and mindfulness.

9/13 - Not bad for the weekend I had. Unfortunately had to be out of town Friday night so didn't have a scale and was eating out. Yesterday we went out to the land early and it was quick moving, not enough time to weigh in and be out the door in time. Despite being a fairly lazy day yesterday with finger foods and football, I did not get enough water in at all. I'll be focusing on that today for sure. Need to figure out food this week still, too. Shockingly a tad bit sore from the Fitbit workouts, will try for one of those later once I get some water in and feel a bit better (got that good ol' dehydration headache). Also need to take pup for a walk before the rain hits from that tropical storm in the gulf. **I won't be hit directly based on forecast, but I will get residual. Will be preparing for potential slight flooding in the area.
9/14 - I'm happy with this. Figured the weekend bloat wouldn't disappear in just one day. Went for a run already this morning. BF took pup for a walk so I could run at my own pace. Upped it to 1.5 miles and upped my pace by about 30sec/mile. Not much difference, but it's more progress than I expected. Drank 90oz water yesterday which I'm sure helped a ton. Already working on water for today. Not sure lunch for today yet, but dinner will be homemade street tacos. Cleaned out deep freezer and trying to eliminate daily grocery trips -- hoping to buy a house before our lease is up on this rental next year so paying off last of the debt and upping savings, any little extra money helps!

We've missed you! Welcome back, so happy to "see" you again! Happiest of birthdays to you and your daughter. Sending love and healing vibes for your ankle 6 -
Thank you @quiltingjaine !! 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!)
Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk most days. Focus on getting enough vegetables.
Next short-term goal:
169....168....167....166....165....164....163....162.X
SW (9/08): 165.9
9/09: 164.8 - Good riddance to 165.x, finally! I've been 165.x for 2 weeks. I would love to hit my next short-term goal this 10 days - we shall see. Rowed 30 min. 80 oz water.
9/10: 164.5
9/11: 164.2 - It's nice to be dropping again.
9/12: 164.0
9/13: 163.9
9/14: 163.9 - Glad to see weight stayed the same after popcorn (air popped) with butter and too much salt. I love popcorn and it's a good snack to have if I don't add so much salt. I drank lots of water and rowed, and was still within my calorie range.
9/15: 163.9 - Okay, let's see how many days I can stick 163.9. I'll take it since I'm still 163.x!

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.

SW RND 162 117.0
9/9 117.0 AF My 1700th day on MFP! Even if we are cruising and consequently no internet, I make a daily entry on my phone - or on paper, and count those days.
9/10 117.0 AF My scale has received a telepathic message from all of yours. It said 111.5 3 times! I knew that wasn’t right! Moved it and tried again.
9/11 118.0 The lunch date with my DH was worth every ounce! 1/2# burger with 3 cheeses. I even ate the bun and some onion rings. Not AF as we visited neighbors and he had a snifter of Jack Daniels poured for me when we arrived. Not worried. 😋
9/12 117.5 AF We had a wonderful evening at an outdoor production of “Smokey Joe’s Cafe” at Super Summer Theater with neighbors last night. 8:20am
9/13 118.0 Adult beverage and a handful of corn chips, hung out with neighbors on the driveway. Foot/shin cramps during the night
9/14 118.0 No cramps last night. Feel as if I slept well. Oskar and I are closed in the sewing room. He’s not happy. We are having a security door installed this morning. We may also get a new peephole that is low enough for me to look through without a step up. The problem with being short!
9/15 118.0 Went to Buffet@Asia yesterday-way too many carbs and not enough protein led me to eating a hamburger patty at 6:30 followed by Quest protein chips. I’m going to try to fast today but I’m not sure I have my head around it. It really IS a head game!10 -

@tiabirdie56 - You always do so well with IF, Carbs, H2O, etc., and your solidly in Onderland! Congrats!9 -
Round 162 (94th for me) . I really need this to help keep me on track, particularly over the next 2 weeks!
@QuiltingJaine- thank you yet again for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to stay on track – Friday we are off for our main 2 weeks holiday, no flying abroad this year (due to Covid), we shall be taking our touring caravan, so for the major part I will be responsible for both choosing & providing food, so hope to come back at least the same as today, a loss will be a bonus – any loss will be a win! But still aware we shall be on holiday so will be indulging in an occasional treat – note to self “an occasional treat” !! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” 2 months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic: Covid is still around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, always consider others.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
9/9 134.8 – 10 miles walked yesterday. I failed the iron test when I went to give blood; one more point down & I would have been referred to my GP, I feel I do have a balanced diet with sufficient iron (MFP shows that too!), I went on a bit of a chocolate feast when I got home Why ??!! So plans to increase iron in diet now in hand.
9/10 137.2 – why am I so greedy, why do I keep stuffing my face? Why do I let food take over my life? I need to take back control NOW !! If this high avoidable spike is not a wake up call then what is! 8 days to pull this back, I want to do it ! I am going to do it ! Today is a new day, lets go.
9/11 136.2 - as you can see had a better food day, stuck to plan. 9.79 miles walked yesterday, feeling more in control, just need to stay that way!! On our way to the south coast for our holiday, feeling positive!!
9/12 134.2 - back to end of last round weight 👏, good day yesterday, despite travelling to camp site, setting up and erecting awning we still managed to walk almost 7 miles in the late afternoon before our BBQ. Stayed in control.
9/13. 134.2 - just over 12 miles walked yesterday, calories and macros in credit, had a toffee crunch ice cream as a treat - delicious!
9/14. 133.2 - lovely! 9.77 miles walked yesterday, half of the circular walk on the SW coastal path 129 floors. Food well within limits.
9/15. 133.6 - 9 miles walked yesterday. Food very good, feeling in control and happy.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/08 …..187.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/09 …..188.8 ….. (trend weight 187.9) A gain overnight. It tasted like cookies but it was really the past week of well problems over & over and no water, travel, medical issues related to prior cancer that is still unresolved and the death in my extended family. Emotional eating and stress is real! Today I travel again for two CT scans. One of the liver, one of the lung. This is not a routine set of tests. There are issues that are being checked and/or rechecked. Things have been found and we need to get to the bottom of it. Travel for me means a lot of inactivity and restaurant dinner. I may skip posting my weight tomorrow (which I have never done) because I just can’t take anymore stress or pressure. I’ll post and read, but no weight! Well company coming back tomorrow. Maybe some resolution but I’m skeptical because they have already been here a couple of weeks ago. I am going to try to pull myself together tomorrow and start weighing myself again on Saturday. I just can’t take anymore bad news! In regards to those cookies, I promise it was not 1.2 pounds worth. Scale is all over the place!
09/10 …..DNW ….. (trend weight DNW) CT scans were easy yesterday. 3 large cups of contrast dye an hour prior. No results yet, of course. I had to stop my diabetes medication Wednesday night and I can’t resume taking until Sunday morning. I guess that forces me to really watch what I am eating although it didn’t stop me yesterday during travel. Today really needs to be a good day.
09/11 …..189.2 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Okay, I guess I expected as much after travel. Good news on the CT scan results…..liver lesions are benign cycts. Lung nodule has grown again both in length and width but they still feel it is not a fast enough growth from CT scan to CT scan rechecks to merit a biopsy or to suspect cancer. They will continue (as they have done since 2019) to monitor it every 6 months with follow-up CT scans. Yay! Now, to get through the real worry next week on the 16th. What does the breast surgeon recommend for my unusual skin changes on the breast which could be a pre-cursor to a very aggressive breast cancer metasteses? We will know soon…… I am planning a lazy day today as I am mentally exhausted. However, if I push myself hard enough I may just fit in a few short walks and some dancing. BTW, well company never showed up yesterday. WTH?
09/12 …..188.4 ….. (trend weight 188.3) I worked hard yesterday afterall and skipped that rest day. I cleaned window frames outside and was up & down stairs all day. I also rode the exercise bike twice, did a little walking, and danced for about 20 minutes. One song was “Have you ever seen the rain?” Yes, I was thinking of you @quiltingjaine ! Good meals yesterday but a bad snack last night. I’ve got to improve my habits!
09/13 …..189.0 ….. (trend weight 188.4)Drats already! After burning a gajillion calories the past 2 days, I ended up with my body screaming for calories and the hunger was intense at 1:00 AM. After closing out of MFP I ended up in the kitchen cooking and eating. 3.5 hours of sleep and then on the scale weighing. Not such a good plan! Today I will be burning many calories again and back on my projects. I will have to plan better. During the hunger I tried 1 oz of walnuts, then a full size (140 cal) yogurt, then a piece of 90% cacao dark chocolate. That just added to my extra calories when I finally cooked a meal. Not happy here today!
09/14 …..187.6 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Very strange…..last night I needed no snacks and wiped them off my pre-log. The night before I was up cooking at 1:00 AM. I had the same dinner both nights and I did the same phenomenal calorie burn working on my window project. I don’t always get it, but I’ll take that it’s in the right direction today with a smile.
09/15 …..185.8 ….. (trend weight 188.0) Thank you TMI. Also did more window cleaning after the rain stopped for some very nice extra calorie burn. Tomorrow I travel to the cancer center. Hopefully it will be tolerable news. My scale reading will be up Friday but I hope to have it level back off by Sunday. I’ve just got to keep my nose clean after the trip! It doesn’t happen unless I make it happen!

9/9--207.6 Trainer day today.
9/10--208.5 Uptick is probably from the soreness I have this morning after working out with trainer yesterday. Puppy has 2nd training lesson today. We saw so much improvement after her first lesson.
9/11--208.1 Not enough protein yesterday, so will work on that today. Puppy did so well yesterday and now we have more tools to work on her jumping. Hairdresser today.
9/12--208.5 Way too much candy yesterday and feeling a little gross today. Near my hairdresser there is this really cute old fashioned candy story that I went to yesterday and got some candy. Ate too much of the candy yesterday. Luckily, I don't visit my hairdresser that often. I really need to get my water today. Trainer day today.
9/13--208.5 Low-key day today. Going to take dog out for a long walk to help with the soreness from my workout yesterday. Goals for today are water and protein.
9/14--208.1
9/15--208.7 Went to the movies yesterday and some movie popcorn, so not surprised about the uptick.

9/15 72.3 159.06 🌸 VERY HAPPY
My system worked yesterday!! I wrote down everything I was going to eat on a piece of paper on kitchen counter, and recorded fiber protein sodium & calories for each. Doing so BEFORE I ate anything helped me realize what was too salty or would throw my protein or calories too high. Also entered it in my phone app. I didn’t feel so great as I dipped water, walked tons, and kept busy Decluttering…body WAS NOT happy with the overeating from 9/14 & the change was particularly apparent this morning.I feel much better. On my walk, I realized my body feels MUCH better with sodium under 1500mg. So now that’s a “want to” not a “have to”!
