@tiabirdie56 Reposted to test. Thanks for my ticker. I've re-added it. Thank you MFP for putting the preview back and for making our world colorful and inviting again! Was it the band Chicago that sang "Color my World" ???2

Does Senza do forums? Could we all move to that so we can still support each other? I've put a search on Google for it and come up with nothing; is it just an APP for a phone?
I was going to offer up SparkPeople.com but unfortunately, that's shut down as well due to lack of funding. It was the closest thing to MFP I've ever used. I came back to MFP simply for this group.
@quiltingjaine I'm very sad to see you go, but I completely understand. Hopefully one day we will all find each other again

@quiltingjaine This is NOT what we want to hear from you!
It looks like they are working on it as we speak. BBCode is already back for example. My plan is to keep being a squeaky wheel until they oil it.4 -
@quiltingjaine, oh noooo sorry to hear your leaving BUT honey, I completely understand! RL, seems to get crazy plus this format isn’t helping definitely.

11/8 / 198.8 / Haven't had an overnight jump that large in a while. My period did start yesterday. I ate on point though and walked almost 20,000 steps plus a Peloton bike ride. Had a very great day and off to make today another one.
11/9 / 198.6 / Donated blood yesterday. Super busy day today! Have moved a lot already so hoping to see the scale down some more again tomorrow.
11/10 / 199.2 / Got all my movement in early yesterday as we were volunteering at night. Ate a big salty snack right before bed but it fit within my calories.
11/11 / 197.4 / Alright - almost back to where I started. Yesterday we had a yummy salmon dinner and I rode my Peloton for the longest ride yet (45 mins).
11/12 / 196.6 / Got a lot of exercise yesterday and felt great about it. Today was a very busy day at work - so glad the weekend is here!

@quiltingjaine I'm so sorry to see you go. This morning, I thought the same thing. I spent so much time just trying to find my last post... Also, then I was unable to use the "quote" button to quote so it would be easy to update. It looks like they've changed some things back, but this is difficult & I may have to leave as well. I will really miss you, but completely understand.
4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 60 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?!

Try not to be so dependent on an app.
It's not the App we're dependant on , it's the friendship, support and camaraderie with people all over this planet that we've found together over the months/years. These friends are part of my life now, they feel like the family that I have chosen for myself and I feel so emotional that it looks like we are going to lose these ties.
I do not have the technical ability to set up new rounds, but if I had instructions (for dummies) on how to do it, then I'll give it my best shot. I do feel the format looks slightly improved this morning.
I'll say again I really feel very sad that it could be coming to an end

Round 168 (100th for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on track.
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
I was so disgusted and disappointed with myself the last few day of last round; so challenge for this round is to stay on track; I'm endeavouring yet again to have a binge free 10 days, after all it is only 10 days! – I want to drop a good few pounds by the start of December as I feel more comfy in a dress I want to wear for Peaky Blinders dance night – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic, cases are continuing to rise: 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
11/8 136.2 – better numbers ! 7.3 miles walked yesterday, calories and carbs both just slightly over, no binge.
11/9 135.8 – yes! Back to where I was 5 days ago; 2 days to gain 3+ pounds, but 3 days to lose it and feel better for it ! A binge not only brings weight gain, but makes me feel bloated, uncomfortable, lethargic, generally disgruntled and my mouth breaks out in ulcers. It's about time I leant my lesson! 11.75 miles walked yesterday, a very good food day, calories well under, carbs just 9 over. No binge!
11/10 135 - 9.57 miles walked & then a good few hours helping DS with her newly purchased bungalow; taking up old wooden floor panels, underlay, removing skirting boards then loading into the skip. Reasonable food day, just about kept with in calories, but exceeded carbs.
11/11 135 – 10.01 miles walked yesterday, excellent food choices; calories and all macros in credit.
11/12 135.6 – 3 miles only walked yesterday. Over indulged on freshly baked crusty bread, but stopped myself going into a binge. Both calories & carbs over, but I did log every mouthful which is an improvement for me. Travelled up to childmind my little toddler DGS & took him up to spend the day with DIL and 2 DGDs aged 5 months & 3, we baked cup cakes with the older two then walked to the children's playground before the return journey. A wonderful family day
.
11/13 136.4 – 10.78 miles walked, ate at an Indian restaurant at 9.00pm, as you all know, there are no low calorie, low fat or low sodium choices on the menu !!! But the company made up for this, and of course I did enjoy the food ! Had a very low calorie lunch in preparation and walked to the restaurant too. I didn't even try to calculate the calories in my meal, to be honest can't remember the name of it; something like Atilia sizzling lamb ? Served with mushroom rice and naan bread, the later two items I shared with DH AND I left some of my bread, that has never been known for me !!!
Plan a low calorie first half of the day, but of course Saturday is pizza night. AND will really push the water.
P.S both spoiler & BBC have worked this morning without any additional intervention from me !!

*********************************************
11/08 146.6 (trend 146.6) was hoping to start this round at a lower number after seeing 145.# several times last round but hey ho. TOTM started today with a vengeance, which explains why I've been such a monster to my family the last few days! Feeling pretty nauseous and weak, must try to avoid stuffing my face for comfort. Not sure what to set my goal weight at this round, I'll aim high but any loss will be a win.
11/09 145.8 (146.5) Hopefully this is the end of the bloat, fingers crossed. Didn't make the best food choices yesterday, had no breakfast, bolognese and veg for lunch and a piece of fruit... all good but then I scoffed a portion of chip shop chips with loads of ketchup, doh! Still came in just under calories though, phew!
11/10 145.2 (trend 146.3) November is going so fast! Starting to feel like I'm treading water again with my weight loss and I need to find a way to get things moving again. I definitely feel like I'm losing better and feeling better now that I've upped my calories a bit (conversely) but my activity levels aren't that great in the evenings. I work on my kitchen reno until it starts to get darkish at 4pm then there's not enough light in the room to see what I'm doing so I get changed and basically sit for the rest of the day, not good.
11/11 147.0 (trend 146.4) Didn't want to post this today but I have to stay accountable. Had a blow out yesterday, beers and nachos at the pub then pizza and chocolate at home.
Hope I haven't messed up the whole round, still 6 days to pull this back.
11/12 148.6 (trend 146.8) Yikes! Need to get back in control, desperately!
11/13 147.2 (trend 146.8) Well I think I'm getting the hang of this new format, ish! I have saved links to my mfp bookmarks into a folder on my phone home screen so that they are easier to access. Still finding it tricky to browse the forum but at least I can now find my challenges quickly!
The daily habit of checking in with you guys, sharing your struggles and successes and staying accountable through the highs and lows is probably the only way I've managed to stick at this for this long! I don't think it's an overreaction to feel some distress when you can't find an important tool in your tool box for fixing something that affects your physical and mental health. Happy Saturday my lovelies 😘

@quiltingjaine 😱 So sorry to hear that you are leaving us. I hope you will reconsider but totally understand your reasons. This has been a stressful few days. If you do go, I will miss you, my friend.
MFP are still working on fixing the bugs. It's not perfect, but then things seldom are.
I have had to copy my original post into my Notes and am updating and copying/pasting from there.
Hoping that someone can step up and take over posting the new rounds. It would be a shame to lose the camaraderie and accountability of the group.6
