    Hi Tina - what trend app do you use?

    I use Happy Scale (free version)!

    Nikki, 52 years old, 5'6"
    WL history: ups and downs for years
    Exercise: treadmill walk 5x/week (actual exercise not allowed yet, hope to be released from restrictions at the end of December)
    Goal: truly give up gluten and avoid it (not allergic, just pick up many pounds of fluid for days)
    Goal: put myself on the things-to-do list, and the take-care-of list
    Goal: lose it and maintain it
    Ultimate Goal weight: 145
    6/7/2022 goal (next oncologist appointment): 177 (-20lbs from 12/7/21 appt)
    December goal: 195

    12/1 196.0 was a sticker shock this morning. A lot of inflammation still from surgery last month so my 12/31 goal is slightly possible but not very confident. I'm not shifting it though. Onward and downward!
    12/2 195.4 first day back to work (remote) was too long and I'm starting the day exhausted. Not sure why I worked 12 hours but so much to do and I'm running out of year. Didn't walk yesterday so my plan is a lunch treadmill walk today.
    12/3 - weighed but forgot to post
    12/4 - weighed but forgot to post, I did walk on the treadmill for 40m
    12/5 - 195.6 This week was rough and a definite reminder that even though I'm not in pain and back to work, that I'm far from healed. Simply exhausted by the end of the day. Today I'm meal prepping breakfast and lunch (egg cups and lasagna soup), dinners for the week will be hunk o'meat + veg. If I was smart I'd go walk now as it's 12:40p and I'm waiting on the soup to simmer, and then work for the afternoon.
    12/6 - ?
    12/7 - 197.6 oncologist appointment
    12/8 - 197.4 yesterday's oncologist appointment went well but was told that I need to take control and drop some pounds. My goal is 177 by 6/7/22, my next appointment. That's 20 pounds, 24 weeks. I have got to get my motivation and big girl panties firmly in place. I'm still limited to walking after my surgery but I haven't been doing very much of that. So a daily walk and better food choices is my future; not sure when I'll be released for more activity but maybe January.
    12/9 - 195.8 so hard to figure out my weight, I really need to find a trend app so I can ignore the ups and downs and just watch the trend. OK, looking now for one.
    12/10 - 196.0 (196.2 trend) - couldn't find Happy Scale so downloaded Libra, but Libra counts in kgs and I can't switch it to pounds. So I know if I convert my 196 kilograms I'll be in completely shock and melt-down! LOL. Got my hair cut this morning, will have a lunch walk, and dinner out with my hubby (plan will be to order meat + veg).

    @nikkit321 Confused by that. Libra does pounds for me. Yours has to be pounds. There is no way it is showing you at kgs! Kgs for your weight should be 88.9. It has to be showing pounds

    12/5: 217.8 On vacation in Prague 🇨🇿 The walking throughout the day is a true lifesaver for my 2 food tours, wine tastings and more!

    I downloaded "Libra Weight Tracker" app - it says: "196 Kg" for 12/10/21. I'm clueless.

    Hello again, everyone!!
    My name is Ana. Some months after my husband passed away I was at my highest weight (180 lbs). Using MFP I was able to get back to a healthy weight through diet and exercise and I kept it off for years. Unfortunately, the pandemic has messed me up in many, profound ways that led to a Dr's visit on June 16th where I learned that I was back up to 156.4 lb. I am back to the MFP community to make myself accountable for my own health.

    Highest Weight 2011: 180 lbs
    2021 Highest (June): 156.4 lbs
    November Start/End: 138.4/138.8 (+0.4)
    Ultimate goal: Be fit and at a healthy weight.

    December Goal: Up until last month my goal was to diet hard and exercise hard until I've reached and maintained 121 lb by the end of July of 2022. However, after deep reflection-and with some fear-, I've decided that for the rest of this year my goal will be SELF LOVE and COMPASSION. This month I will:

    1. Exercise 3/5x a week to tone up
    2. Keep track of calories to maintain
    3. Weigh myself only at the end of Dec

    12/05: 138.6 Yay!! 🎉 Only + 0.2 from 11/31
    My relationship with food is changing for the better, I think. I'm learning that if I am watchful most of the time, it does not matter if I don't exercise hard daily and that indulging-even if often-doesn't mean I blew it!
    12/11: This week I have watched my calorie intake but I have also been flexible with it and it weirdly leads me to feel more satisfied regardless of whether I'm having more or less than my allowance of calories 🤔
    I walked to work 3x, exercised 5x, ate Donuts and carnitas... Long story short, the part of my brain in charge of being naughty, and my tummy are very pleased 😂
    As I wrote the last paragraph, I felt my anxiety rising. I'm working on controlling the urge to restrict myself and the inner voice saying I should work out extra hard to make up for it.

    So proud of us still working on our goals at a time of the year when many choose to give up. Love to everyone! 💖

    -A

    Goals of the week:
    1. Plan scrumptious, filling, nutritious meals
    2. Listen to my satiety cues
    3. Sleep at least 7 hrs every night
    4. Continue morning exercise 4-5x/week
    5. Continue walking to work 3-4x/week

    REMINDER TO SELF:
    Highest Weight, 2011: 180 lbs
    MFP Start: 175 lbs
    2021 LOSS: 19.8 lbs/5mo. I had no idea. So proud!!

    June Start/End: 156.4 / 151.8 (- 4.6)
    July Start/End: 151.8 / 148.4 (- 3.4)
    August Start/End: 150.2 / 146.4 (- 3.8)
    September Start/End: 141.2 lbs (- 5.2)
    October Start/End: 141.2 / 138.4 (-2.8)
    November Start/End: 138.4 / 138.8 (+0.4)
