Glad I found you all again! I lost about 2 pounds last round. This is helpful to me. Thank you everyone!
I'm a 5'7" 54yo woman in SE Michigan.
SW (this fall): 161 lbs
UGW: 145 lbs. (I'd be happy with 150 right now.)
Day/Weight/Comment
11/18 - 158.4 I'm not getting much exercise right now. I need to figure that out; I used to jog ~ 3x/week. My back isn't quite healed (I tried jogging a couple days ago) and work + other commitments are keeping me busy. . . .Weather isn't inspiring, but I've managed to jog all year long before. More or less.
11/19 - 160.0 A bit disappointing, but could be water from salty food or the previous weekend catching up to me.

11/23 - 159.8 Traveled to IL to visit my aging parents over the weekend and made many poor eating choices.
11/24 - 158.6 Tracked my food yesterday. Went over WW points but made good choices.

Round 169 goals: Pelo 2-3x/week; strength training 2-3x/week; 10,000 steps/day; <90 net carbs/day; release as much weight as I can!
CW: 198.2
11/18: 199.8 Not surprised by this. The monthly hormonal flux is in full effect. I also spent 2.5 hours in the car last night driving to pick up my husband at the airport. We got home after midnight and therefore I got a little less sleep than usual. This round may be a bust round again, but if I can hang right around this weight throughout, I’ll be happy. 58 net carbs yesterday and step goal nearly hit. On to today.
11/19: 200.0 I had a stressful day yesterday, so I’m surprised it wasn’t more. Surprisingly, this uptick this month isn’t bothering me yet. Usually I find it annoying and aggravating, but right now I’m totally fine with it… give me a few days! 😂 I hit my step goal, 42 net carbs, but ran out of hours in the day for the Pelo and strength. I WILL get both done today though! I get so cranky now when I don’t get my scheduled Pelo ride in!
11/20: 199.2 33 net carbs yesterday, step goal achieved, and Pelo ride done.
11/21: 199.8 I had a slice of my son’s birthday cake yesterday, which was extra sugar and flour I’m not used to. That’s life! 69 net carbs and step goal achieved though! On to the new week!
11/22: 199.8 Holding steady, and I’m okay with that. Yesterday was a strange day. O was moody. Lol I didn’t quite hit my step goal. 70 net carbs though, so at least there’s that.
11/23: 198.8 Woohoo! I’ll take it! Had a great day yesterday, minus slacking on exercise. I will get some in today though. 46 net carbs and step goal hit. Now to make today count! Thanksgiving is coming too soon!

11/19-168- Glad to be in the 160’s but today I need to make my experimental batch of rolls.
And boy, I feel like an old lady-Its hard to find this group now. 😬
11/20-168-Didn’t like the rolls, but found another recipe I’ll try. Have a nice weekend everyone!
11/21-168-Whew-I figured out a good roll recipe and ate three, oops! I kept moving all day.
11/23-168-Things are pretty much ready for Thanksgiving...I’ve been having to check each night to see if I have to report to jury duty, but so far, so good. Ran errands, rode the horse and yard work.9 -

18: 217.6 ♀️ THERE it is. Great way to start off a new round.
19: 217.2 ♀️ Last night, my kids and I finished off the last of the high calorie bacon cheeseburger soup I made earlier this week. I had to guess on the macros. Not sure if I stayed within my calories or not, but I logged it the best I could. Next time, I'll create a recipe on here, so I can track it better. Going for a float session with a friend of mine this afternoon. It's been months since I've gone, so I'm really looking forward to it.
20: 215.9 I love seeing this progress! Logging my food is the "magic" key for me, along with checking in here daily. I'm very excited to see where I'll be by the end of this round!
My float session yesterday was great. I'm hoping to start going once a month. Need to wait to see if it's in my budget for December. If not, I'll start in January.
21: 215.3 Game day today, and it's a big one, so there will likely be a bump up tomorrow because of food and drinks. I intend to indulge in moderation.
22: 214.4 The friend I was supposed to be going out to watch the game with had something else come up, so I watched the game alone at home. Saved myself some money and calories.💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
23: 214.9 🥚 Day 1 of 7. I hope to keep the daily increases that typically happen for this week every month in check. Heading to the gym now. Started a 50 squat/day challenge today. Also want to get back to fascia blasting, even if it's only 5 minutes a day.

Highest Weight: 174 lbs (Summer 2021)
Starting Weight: 166.6 lbs
Challenge Goal: 161 lbs
Ultimate Goal: 130 lbs
My challenge might seem high for 10 days, but I'm currently coming off a couple days of overindulgence and tend to float more around 164, putting my challenge at more 3 lbs down! I hoping to see some of the bloat come off quickly.
11/18 - 166.6 lbs - So ready for some daily focus with Thanksgiving approaching! I don't want holiday eating this year to stretch from Halloween to New Years, but rather occur only on the actual day!
11/19 - 165.8 lbs - Actually logged and stuck to my calorie goal yesterday, and look at the difference it made! I'm going to challenge myself to so this every day this challenge!
11/20 - 165.0 lbs. - Another day logged, another day of success! Wanted to see 164, but I can't be sad about a 0.8 lb loss. However, a bit nervous for today as I'm going to a wedding. I'm going to just trust myself and check in with myself while eating to make sure I'm not too full. Life doesn't stop when we're trying to get healthy and I need to learn how to work with these days!
11/21 - 165.0 lbs. - I am SO excited that I managed to maintain! It helped that we sat pretty far from the buffet so I was never really tempted to eat past my first plateful. Plus I may or may not have focused more on the drinks! But really pleased with that and hopefully I can still hold strong today while we are at my in-laws. They tend to want to overfeed us usually!
11/22 - 165.2 lbs. - Didn't track yesterday and my in-laws gave us a HUGE box of snacks that they bought for us..ugh. Didn't want to be rude so we took them, but I'm having my husband take them to work with him so that they aren't in the house. Ready to track today and hopefully see a jump down to 164 tomorrow!
11/23 - 164.8 lbs. - Yay! Glad to be back to 164, though at this rate I don't think I'll hit my challenge goal with Thanksgiving looming. But that's okay! I'd love to see and hold 163 by the end!

SW: 197.2
Day/Weight/Comment
11/18 198.4 welp not too great to start off but I realized I had a LOT of sodium yesterday and did NOT drink all my water. So lets get on board with that for today! Today I will preplan my meals and do a 30 minute dog walk.
11/19 198.8 calories yesterday 1502 not sure why the scale is still up but trying not to let it bug me. Water and gym today.
11/20 198.4 calories yesterday
11/21 198.8 we went out for Indian last night but I skipped the naan and only ate half my dinner.
11/22 200.1 ugh I know this is water weight bc I ate risotto for dinner and was still close to my calorie target but it still hurts to see that number on the scale. Calories 1401, walked the dog.
11/23 200.7 calories 1783, yesterday I got the gym time in and did all the thanksgiving shopping. Today cleaning and prepping. I also am going to try to stick to 1400 calories and get all my water in to see if some of this will whoosh away.

Round Goal: 142.0 lbs, with the American Thanksgiving holiday taunting me next week
UGW: 135.0 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
11/18: 143.6
11/19: 143.0. I have just very slightly entered the "normal" BMI range (yay!). For many years, I have yo-yo'd up and down in the overweight range, towards the lower part of that range for a decade or so. I'm glad I've made it and I wish I knew why, this time, I have lost the weight. Certainly, mfp makes it easy to count calories (compared to long ago), but I have been on this site since 2013, so mfp's ease of counting calories is not the reason (although an amazing tool!). Onward to a few more pounds lower!
11/20: 142.9. Not too much excitement around my house right now, just getting the house cleaned for the Thanksgiving celebration next week.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/17 …..189.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
11/18 …..190.6 ….. (Trend weight 189.7) I’m a hot mess. Doctor called yesterday in regards to my blood work from last week’s PCP appointment. , Such low sodium that she is prescribing some type of medication for it (that explains the foot cramps), A1C 11.8, more diabetic medication being prescribed to go with what I am already taking, thyroid numbers bad again and medication will have to be increased. Atorvastatin is now going to be prescribed for my LDL cholesterol. I am thankful that some weight loss (original weight was 253) has helped me, especially in regards to my cancer remission. However, I have not done enough. And going backwards is causing my health improvements to do the same. What a horrible time for this to happen with all the upcoming holidays in the next (nearly) two months! But it’s now or never. I’ll take all those new pills but they will be bitter pills to swallow. I’ve got to start getting even more serious TODAY. I know what is needed.
11/19 …..190.8 ….. Trend weight 189.8) Unexpected travel yesterday yielded lots of sitting, only 5000+ steps and a restaurant meal. I’m glad I’m only up 0.2 but will it show up in the coming days? Time will tell……
11/20 …..190.2 ….. (Trend weight 189.8) I rolled up my sleeves and am ready to put in the work. A nice drop this morning.
11/21 …..187.6 ….. (Trend weight 189.5) Over 2.5 pounds down overnight which was a shock. I did expect a drop because TMI finally cooperated though leaving me cramped. I know I am probably dehydrated after such an eventful night so when I push water today it may lead to an uptick. I feel that if I have a good day today, tomorrow will show my true numbers. Meals were on point but snacks….notsomuch! I’ll work harder on the snack part today. I have healthy ones here, I just need to eat them and forget about the stuff that my daughter and DGS have here!
11/22 …..188.4 ….. Trend weight 189.4) I feel this is my true weight as I think I was a bit dehydrated yesterday after such a big overnight drop. Meals were good yesterday, snacks could have been better again. Exercise level was pretty low. I am glad to see that my trends have began to go down again for the past couple of days so I want to keep up that momentum. I’ve got to push myself to log all my food daily. It really does make a difference! I added a pinch of Himalayan Pink Salt to my night time routine to stop the cramping in my feet until my low sodium meds arrive.
11/23 …..187.2 ….. (Trend weight 189.2) TMI helped with this drop on the scale. Yesterday was pretty good on the dietary front, but again, I KNOW it could have been better. Today I travel and that never helps. I’ll try to choose carefully, eat half and bring the rest home. Also, no goodies in none of the bags. I’ll have my “goodies” during Thanksgiving dinner which we have planned for Sunday. Happy to see the trend still going down for the 3rd day in a row.

11/18 211.0 (-.8) Down 53 pounds! Yesterday was a busy day, but I made it a point to stay below my calorie plan. I didn’t quite get enough water, so I’ll be working on that today. I’m meeting a friend for lunch, so the scale will be up a bit over the next few days. Really hoping to be under 210 by the end of the round.
11/19 211.8 (0) Lunch with my friend was wonderful yesterday. It’s a crazy busy day today, but I will fit swimming in between meetings and errands.
11/20 212 (+.2) I had a really good day yesterday, but am not surprised by the slight bump. This is still from my indulgence meal on Thursday. Things should start dropping again tomorrow if I stay on track.
11/21 211.2 (-.6) Hiking today. My sister flies into town tomorrow and I’ll have company for the next two weeks. I want to enjoy spending time with her and my family, but still keep exercising and eating right most of the time. We are going to have fun.
11/22 210.6 (-1.2) This feels really good. My sister and I hiked over four miles yesterday with the dogs. It was chilly, but beautiful. My sisters planned a day at the pool tomorrow so I could still swim laps. They’ll be doing the lazy river section where they can walk against the current, while I swim. It’s so thoughtful and will be good for all of us. Today is busy with no organizes exercise. We’ll be doing our final grocery shopping for Thanksgiving. Our dinner will include art. The dining room table is always covered with art supplies so we can sculpt with air dry clay and paint before and after we eat. It’s become a fun family tradition.
11/23 210.8 (-1.0) Went grocery shopping yesterday for Thanksgiving. Lots of traditional foods. Stayed on track. Today is swimming.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/18: 153.7 - Only a short walk yesterday, but ate within calories
11/19: 154.5 - Normal workout, did takeout for dinner and ate 1/2 portion.
11/20: 155.0 - I can’t see any obvious reason for uptick in weight other than perhaps sodium. Calories and exercise have remained the same.
11/21: 153.4 - I’ll take it!
11/22: 152.6 - I’ll take it again! Something I still haven’t internalized is that what I eat/drink generally takes two days to show up on the scale.

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.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable but I’ve been doing it for over 4 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

11/19 120.0 Asian buffet for his birthday. We used to go about every 6 weeks but we haven’t been since before COVID
11/20 119.5 AF
11/21 120.0 AF Since I have made a conscious effort to reduce alcohol consumption I seem to look for “something” to snack on in the evenings. I didn’t drink a massive amount of alcohol before, a double shot in a quart of SF lemonade or diet tonic.
11/22 119.5 Art Quilts, etc meeting at 9 on the other side of town. I’ll try to come back later.
11/23 120.0 AF surprised it isn’t worse after lunch yesterday regular sandwiches from a grocery store like nothing fancy potato chips two kinds of fluff dessert and coleslaw not exactly what I would call sandwiches and salad. Wish I’d taken a salad and put the meat on it that was on the sandwichs. IMHO very expensive. Could NOT go to sleep so got up and finished a book. Sleep at 1:30, up at 6:25 Finally caught up on posts.7 -

11/18 - 192.4 / Frigid winds here right now are making my walks interesting. Hit my 10K steps last night by completing the last bit inside. Making it work!
11/19 - 192.4 / Had a tofu bowl meal my husband wouldn't have liked before he got home from business last night and did a whole wide range of exercise. A good day. Eating at maintenance today for my mom's birthday celebration.

11/21 - 194.4 / Yesterday was a day of a bit of everything - walking, biking, strength, yoga, plus some car rides, some lazy time. Hiking today.
11/22 - 193.8 / Husband and I did a hike that was just over 10K in the deep snow yesterday. A great workout. We followed it with a nice dinner out but choices remained within calorie limit.
11/23 - 194.2 / Two fun rides on the Peloton yesterday and lots of steps on top of that. We went to Zoolights last night.

Day/Weight/Comment
11-18 - 180.2, Ave 180.2
Yesterday was a good, on-track day, so this is just time lag from higher calorie days last round. It’s a bright, chilly morning here so I’m bundling up and heading out for a walk with the puppy and a few errands. Then we’ll see what the rest of the day brings! Enjoy!
11-19 - 180.2, Ave 180.2
I don’t think I’ve ever had two days in a row with weight & average identical. Weird! My calories are back down, so I should start to see some loss soon.
11-20 - 179.6, Ave 180.1
Ok, moving in the right direction again. It’s a gloomy, chilly day here, but I’m headed out with the pup in a few minutes. I’ve decided to repaint my office and bought the paint yesterday, so hope to start at least the prep work today—the worst part! Have a great Saturday!
11-21 - 180.4, Ave 180.1
Oh, come on. My calories have been lower the past two days, no snacks yesterday. Time lad and salt? Whatever. Just sticking’ to the plan. Enjoy your day!
11-22 - 179, Ave 179.8
That’s better. Now to keep it below 180! Yesterday I got one wall of my office painted, the hardest one, with two doors. I love the color—a medium-dark green I find very warm and comforting. I have to paint one wall at a time because of moving things around, so it’s fairly disruptive, but it will be worth it. Ok, off for a walk with the pup, then paint a while, then doggy school this evening. Have a good one!
11-23 - 179.6, Ave 179.8
No idea why the bump back up, as my calories were low yesterday, but whatever. I’m paying more attention to my running average these days. All good!
