10/19: 79kg. I lost 2.5 stone a few years back but a divorce, house move and then Covid misery has seen me put it all back on again. My indigestion is bad, my joints ache and I feel sluggish and grumpy. All things I know are improved with a better diet and more exercise so back to MFP I go!

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?!

▪︎Day1▪︎ Tu•10/19- 195.8 (Mo•10/18 -1pm, 7pm ;15hrs;) 40g carbs; Fiber•10g; 80ozs water. Up a little from end weight. I'm happy to see this number on the 1st day of this round. It is proven in my weight loss history, that I touch every tenth of a pound before dropping a full one pound of weight and settling there. This is the last one for 195. Even if I revisit any of the tenths this round, I know I'm close to seeing 194 soon. I've already touched 194.8 last round. Point 6, 4 and 2 here I come😀

10/19: 224.7 - Down is down right? I've been feeling like my loss has been slowing down, and it has, but I'm still on about a 12 lbs per month pace since the beginning. It's just that the past month has been about 10 lbs so it seems a lot slower. Anyway, my cardio is getting to be better than ever which is honestly all I wanted. 8 months ago I was on supplemental O2 24/7 after COVID pneumonia, so to now say my cardio is better than when I was a high school athlete really makes me appreciate the work I've put in. Long blurb but just a thought I had this morning.

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.

Round 166
Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

10/19: 206.4
Even though I am 1.6 lower than yesterday, my 10-day rolling average went up 0.1. That is because I just dropped a 205.6 off the front end of my rolling 10-day range. I need to sprinkle more low numbers in my 10-day mixes. I would like to break the 205 barrier this round. Out to lunch with an old friend today. Maybe I can remember to make a good choice or three.

Female, 5’7”
SW: 161.2 pounds (Oct 18, 2021, EO Round 165)
RGW: 159.5 (-1.7 pounds) - which would take me out of the “overweight” BMI to “healthy” BMI

Day/Weight/Comment
10/19: 159.0 - What? Was this a magical whoosh? Yesterday’s weight was disappointing and could be chalked up to several high-sodium meals in a row. I guess being back home, drinking a normal amount of water and eating our usual foods helped flush things out. I’m sure there will be an uptick tomorrow, but I’ll enjoy being at a so called “healthy” BMI for the day.

Round 166 (98th for me). I need this to help keep me on track.
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.

Challenge for this round is to get back on track – want to drop a few pounds by the start of December as I feel more comfy in a dress I want to wear for Peaky Blinders night – any loss will be a win!

Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” sometime 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.

@matratazola There are NO ESSENTIAL CARBOHYDRATES so I think “not enough” isn’t a thing.

I use the Senza app since I can track either net or total carbs. And it’s free! I didn’t like MFP or a couple of other tracking apps I tried-unfortunately I can’t remember what they were.

10/19 - 218 (-.6) I changed my starting weight to what I weighed when I started this journey, a month before I started logging everything on MFP and, I decided to reduce my goal weight to one more in line with exactly where I’d love to be . When I first started, I didn’t really believe I could do this. I’m starting to believe and am almost halfway there.

I found that I often dropped between day 10 of a round and day 1 of the next. Those losses dropped into a “black hole” as they weren’t recorded. I started figuring Round averages and posting the day 10 weight on the next round’s posts. Don’t want to misplace those losses!!! 😁

I skipped the last several rounds because I fell off the wagon and of course, gained a lot of weight back, almost everything I lost. Got back on again and ready to do this.

10/19 …..186.6 ….. [/color=fblue (trend weight 186.9) Not such a great start to this round. Meals were great yesterday. Movement very little due to doctor appointment. Also friends and well-wishers stopping by before my surgery Friday one with two types of very unique homemade cookies, another with a crème pie. Another with apple bread lightly glazed. Reno folks were here too. Some good progress was made on that front in the landscaping department. I shared all the goodies with the workers so there is not too much left today. I’m going to try for an excellent day today. It is supposed to be a beautiful day for this time of year in my neck of the woods. Perhaps some yard walking since I won’t be able to leave. I live on a hill so there are lots of opportunities to walk steep.

I was after an elusive 85 lbs loss 😂 but 83 will do me fine. (Now 85 😁)
• 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!😷
October 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!
