Goals: HIT.MY.STEP.GOAL!!! 10,000/day; <100 carbs/day; Pelo ride 2-3x/week; end the round lower than what I started it at.
1/7- 193.6 47 net carbs, Pelo ride done, and step goal achieved yesterday. Getting closer to my pre Christmas low!
1/8- 193.4 63 net carbs and almost made the step goal. It was a day spent in the kitchen decorating a cake, so a small loss is great considering.
1/9- 192.2 Only a pound away from my pre Christmas low! 63net carbs yesterday.
1/10-190.2 Well I’m not sure how that happened, but WOOHOO! I even had a beer with dinner last night, which I wasn’t sure how it would affect things. 72 net carbs and a Pelo ride in. Let’s make today great too!!
1/11- 189.8 NEW DECADE!! Even with pizza night and it’s extra carbs last night, I still dropped. I wound up resetting my calorie goal last weekend because the previous 1260/day was starting to take a mental toll. Now with an additional 200 calories a day, it’s much easier. Finished yesterday with 92 net carbs, step goal hit, and strength training done.
1/12- 189.8 I was hoping for a drop, but considering the big drops of late, I’m okay with staying the same. 88 net carbs yesterday and Pelo ride done. Planning to make today a lower carb day, as pizza and sushi the past two days have put me higher than usual. I suspect that might be influencing the scale just a bit.
1/13- 189.8 Stayed the same for the third day in a row. I’m going to guess my body is playing catch up from the big drops over the weekend, since yesterday was only 53 net carbs. Did my strength training too, but fell short on steps as I started to feel really nauseous while I was trying to get them in.

Day/Weight/Running Average/Comment
1/10: 107.4 ave 107.4 - Chest and back ; weight is post workout. I can't even fathom what it is pre-workout. I hope to get to a pre-workout weigh in some day soon.
1/12 - 107.8, ave 107.6 - Cardio & WEighted Glutes. Covid booster
1/13 - 108.0 ave 107.7 - Below calories but today's workout was not a good sweat session. back/chest and leg soreness, so some of this can be attributed to muscle soreness ??? IDK....
I like someones post who said "make Monday and Tuesday very low calories" I think I may implement that today and Friday. See what happens on Saturday.

1/08: 148.4 - I’ve been eating back about half of my exercise calories, but the scale seems to be reflecting maintenance. Perhaps my logging isn’t accurate. These last 15 pounds are tough.

1/10: 147.3 - Same workout, same lunch and dinner, so-so sleep.
1/11: 147.7 - Good workout plus an extra walk and ate within calories.
1/12: 147.3 - Normal exercise, but only a small walk. Ate back exercise calories.

@coblujay - I finally found your actual post! lol CONGRATS ON MAKING ITTO ONEDERLAND!! Unlike you I do not have a chance to read all of the posts but I do read as much as I can for sure because it helps keep me motivated and inspired. You have did a great job and your attitude is awesome as you know the scale will go up and down until you are solidly in the 190's@schmoyew You are almost there! We both have been bouncing around. I'm up over 200 this morning, which isn't totally unexpected with the ups and downs. But my trend is still downward. And @PrimalJillian is almost there too! I'll be happy dancing for both of you in the next week. I think I'm still in a bit of denial, but that's going to change as I see the 190's on the scale more and more and as I fit into my smaller size clothing.

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.

Hi, I'm Jen!
Female, 5'9"
Highest weight: 08.18.2021 235 lbs
Round 172 SW: 12.17.2021 200.2 lbs
Round 172 EW: 12.27.2021 197.4 lbs

Round 174 GW: 01.16.2022 191.8 lbs
01/07: 193 lbs (-0.8)
Going for 2 pounds this round. It's been below freezing, snowy and dark and it's harder to get out for long walks, but I'm staying in the lower end of my calories range, so doable.
01/08: 193.4 lbs (+0.4)
I'm totally OK with a slight bump up. Yesterday was a semi-rest day. Back at it today!
01/09: 194.4 lbs (+1.0)
Ugh. Bad choices yesterday and severely lacked water. Not happy about posting this but I need to be accountable.
01/10: 194.8 lbs (+0.4)
Out of control. Gotta stop the free fall. Bad weekend, too much junk and not enough exercise.
01/11: 194.6 lbs (-0.2)
Well, right direction at least! Not throwing in the towel just yet.
01/12: 193.2 lbs (-1.4)
Phew! Almost back down to before weekend weight. Gotta be more careful on days out if I want to reach my goal.
01/13: 192.4 lbs (-0.8)
Wow, last weekends eating out must have had WAY more sodium than I thought. Down 2.8 pounds in 3 days HAS to be water retention. Good workouts and plenty of water this week helped a ton.

Hi to everyone

I printing off your food pyramid. Great blueprint to plan my meals.
@tiabirdie56 Hope you are getting stronger everyday
And thanks for the links
@deepwoodslady Yes I’m enjoying the small utensils and learning to savor my food.
Love your MFP signature, does it mean you live in the woods?
@AR10at50 Karen 🥂 hope your stretching and doctor visits keep the sciatic pain away
I just finished 30 minutes on my mini trampoline, and
rewarded myself with 15 minutes of meditation and yoga

Round # 41 for me!
SW: 380.0 (5100 steps daily step goal, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out or junk food 6 days a week)
Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
1/07 380.0 – 5158 steps.
1/08 382.0 – 5555 steps. Back on track today. Last 2 days have had the munchies and one day was a splurge day and splurged a little too much so I was not surprised by 2 pounds up. But that is ok, moving forward. Overall, I have doing great with sleep, water, steps, etc. I need to work on eating more veggies and less carbs. Not sure I will have a chance to check in tomorrow. Sundays are hectic. I do my ministry and religious meetings via zoom half of the day and errands the rest and before I know it Monday is here and time for work again. Have a great weekend! Please stay safe and take the necessary precautions when going out and in public places.
1/09 381.0 – 5509 steps.
1/10 381.0 – 4366 steps.
1/11 381.0 – 5151 steps. I have been under calories, but my calories have not been clean, and I have been eating back too many step calories also. Work has been a trip so have been overindulging in wrong foods and not enough proteins and veggies. I always eat 2 fruits per day. So going forward, goal is to get in protein and veggies or eat more cleanly the rest of this round. The good thing is I have been maintaining, but too much of a good thing always ends up in a gain eventually!
1/12 377.6 – 5153 steps. Under calories again and did a short walk also yesterday. I am hoping to stay in the new decade for good now! It feels wonderful to be out of the red for the round and in a new decade. It has been a while since I have seen 377 and I am loving it for sure. Now I just want to stick the 370's this round. Whoohoo! Happy dance!
1/13 374.4 – 5168 steps. Great day yesterday and doing good on challenge with friends on no eating out this month. I am surprised at how easy this has been also. Mid-month and I have not had any restaurant food since New Year’s Day which for me is awesome. I am cleaning out my freezer At 1st I thought I can’t do this but now that I am doing it, I am like good and my stomach loves it too. Good reminder that I was not being good to my stomach.

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us. 13 -

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Goal for this round: Maintain weight while continuing to focus on strength training and running
Previous days1/13 Woke up feeling like I wanted to crawl out of my skin but luckily as the day went on I felt better. Started the day with a 45 minute bike ride and ate relatively well all day. It was another busy day at work so I’m just getting to posting now.
1/7 122.8 My scale has been wonky but I’m also just feeling puffy and bloated from having Thai food two days in a row. My husband and I tried the new place in the center and got a couple of their staple resulting to two days of Thai food for either lunch or dinner. It was worth it though because I hadn’t had Thai in a while! I’m drinking lots of water and dandelion tea to help with the bloat/puffy feeling. Our first “real” snow storm of season is going on outside my window and it looks so pretty! I might not feel that way in March when it’s still snowing but I’ll happily take it now lol. I did a 45 minute heavy hills/hiit spin bike ride in leu of running this morning in the storm. Then I cooled down for another 15 minutes on the bike at an easier pace. It’s been a crazy work week, hence not posting yesterday but I’m glad today is a little quieter.
1/8 122.4 At least it went down right? I’ve had a super productive day getting things done around the house. I took down the Christmas ornaments and lights, went grocery shopping, made bread which came out better than last weeks, cleaned the aero garden before my new flowers arrive for it, put a load of laundry in the wash, have an empty sink, and a couple other things. For physical activity, I decided to give my body a full rest day today but I have at least 100 active calories on my garmin watch. I woke up with a ton of energy and was dressed an out of bed by 6 this morning. It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much energy, so I wanted to take advantage of it. Breakfast was cereal, lunch was a cheese and crackers with some fruit, a snack was a slice or two of my bread and dinner will be beef bulgogi with sauteed mushrooms, cabbage, and onions. My goal this week is to eat more vegetables during the day. So tomorrow I’m going to cut up some veggies that will be easy to munch on during the week.
1/9 120.6 That’s a better number and I feel it too. I felt less puffy/bloated this morning. I did a 30 minute spin bike ride and then my husband and I went for a walk around the local pond trail. Breakfast consisted of eggs with peppers and caramelized onion cheddar from Trader Joes, toast with my homemade bread, and an apple; lunch will be a mini cheese board for 1 and dinner will be cranberry bbq sauce turkey meatballs served over brown rice with a side of broccoli and left over cabbage from last night. I hope every had a good weekend!
1/10 119.8 Ran 6 miles this morning. Tested out my running YakTrax and they helped give me a bit more confidence with the sporadic icy spots. My run definitely would have been more sketchy without them. I also plan to do some sort of strength training on my lunch today. On the menu tonight will be short ribs with carrots, onions, fennel, kohlrabi, and the homemade bread from Saturday. This is going to be a somewhat long week for me with a potentially very tired husband who is scheduled to work his per diem OT job every day this week because another therapist is out sick. He typically works two or three days in a row and then has a day or a few off to recover mentally/physically. Here’s to hoping we don’t hate each other by Friday with his job taking so much energy out of him/potentially increasing crankiness. Fingers crossed!
1/11 Didn’t get to post. I started one but didn’t have a chance to do the last step.
1/12 The past couple days have been bleh eating wise. TOM is arriving later this week and I’m feeling it with the fatigue and not caring about what I eat. I ran 5 miles this morning but did yoga instead of my normal strength training on Wednesdays because I was just tired and not feeling it. After work my husband and I also went for a 2ish mile walk. Hoping to feel better once TOM finally arrives. These hormonal fluctuations are rather annoying. Sorry for the complaining. On the bright side, the week is now more than halfway over.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 / 186.8 / First day of work for 2022 was today! Busy day... one week work weeks are the best
01/08 / 185.2 / Really had trouble sleeping overnight. Luckily today is low key so I can rest up more this morning as needed.
01/09 / 185.4 / Set a new 45 minute PR on the Peloton yesterday, finished up some leftover frozen appetizers from the holiday season, and watched some movies with the hubby. Also got out for my first outdoor walk of 2022... the weather is improving this week! Woo hoo!
01/10 / 184.8 / One of my intentions for 2022 is to use this new body I have in all sorts of fun ways. So, yesterday we went snowshoeing. It was a lot of fun and thank goodness the cold is breaking a bit here in Alberta. This morning I did my 100th Peloton ride live and got a shout out and that felt very encouraging to me. Proud of how far I've come and excited to keep moving forward.
01/11 / 184.6 / Hit my round goal - been feeling great, moving lots, and eating well. The nicer weather and the ability to be outside more comfortably for walks is a mood improver too. Work is busy so I think I'll enjoy the rest of the evening with my feet up.
01/12 / 183.4 / There are those rounds where the weight just seems to fall off! And in the moment it feels surreal. And then you're humbled by the next round. It feels great in the moment. Life feels busy this week, but just with routine stuff. One foot in front of the other
01/13 / 184.6 / Work is kicking my butt this week. Glad I got my Peloton ride in before work today because I'm exhausted tonight. Food has been good.

I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), complete all 6 programmed strength training sessions during my 4 days off per week

Previous Posts1/7 WHEW what a welcome back to work. Critical care during Covid is just not ideal. Our unit is now 8 beds and we are staffed for 12, so we will pretty much be staffing the new unstaffed Covid icu that took our place. Buuut the move has changed my trek up the stairs from 7 flights to 11 and I’m always looking for excuses to take the stairs. Leftovers for lunch. Black bean soup, avocado, and seitan for dinner. Another workday tomorrow. Protein: 135
1/8 Work 2/2 and now I’m off for 2. Since we are not in our normal unit I was having to run up and down to pharmacy a lot to get medicines that weren’t stocked and so I got plenty of stair action in today. I always close my move ring at work but rarely my exercise but the stairs have fixed that. Leftover black bean soup for lunch, broccoli dal with tofu for dinner. Protein: 148
1/9 must have tweaked my back turning patients or something yesterday cause I am hurting today. Skipped out on deadlifts and just did some rows, rowing, and step ups instead. Also skipped out on the NBA game tonight because of how bad the Covid numbers are around here.. didn’t seem like a responsible thing to do with the surge and how many staff at the hospital are already out sick. I got talked into going into work an extra day tomorrow to be the lead, so my days off are cut short. Leftovers for lunch. Lentil, sweet potato, spinach soup and seitan for dinner. Protein: 131
1/10 workday 1/3. Not a bad start to 3 in a row. I walked a ton since we are split between multiple floors and I was helping everyone out. Leftover soup for lunch and a lentil harissa garbanzo bean soup and tofu for dinner. Protein: 132
1/11 work 2/3. Supplies are really low. I’ve been walking around 8 miles and doing 60 flights of stairs at work since the unit move. I have been eating Built bars for my protein bars and the eggnog flavor was surprisingly really good. Leftover lentil, chickpea, harissa soup for lunch. Lemony, kale, orzo and seitan for dinner. Protein: 128
1/12 work 3/3 we moved again at work lol. At this point you can’t do anything but laugh and go along with it or quit. I was lead and they assigned all the rooms we were moving in the last hour or work so I was scrambling. Now we are Covid icu with a few neuro beds until things settle down I guess. I ordered a more comfortable n95 and goggles. Walked a ton. My husband made a really yummy Korean stew for dinner. Protein: 131

I also meal planned and put away Christmas decorations. Good timing since a house cleaner is coming tomorrow and Christmas decorations make a lot of sparkles. Did a push day for weight lifting. I’m feeling pretty tired (could be from working 3 in a row) and my throat is a bit sore (could be my imagination).. hopefully I wake up feeling normal 😬. stir fried tempeh, cabbage, and carrots for dinner.

1/8- 210.8- I had a great Friday but tonight is a ‘cheat’ day. I have volleyball and it’s a beer league.

1/11- 209.8- had a great day and am looking forward to a great week!
1/12- 210.4 - had a great day so not sure why the gain but not getting discouraged!

Round 173 #️⃣1️⃣ (SW 253, FW 249)
Round 174
1/7- 249 The scale has been holding mostly steady over the holidays, so I would really like to break past my current rut and get to 247 at the end of ten days. I’m working on increasing my protein, fiber, and water intake.
1/8- 248 Yay for a drop! The in-laws are here for a week and watching Husband coach a lot of basketball, so I’m sitting on a lot of bleachers this week. Really making sure I stay under the calorie goal and especially fitting in the protein, I can tell it’s making a difference.
1/9 - 247.5 Another drop! 😆 l don’t have a lot to add from yesterday’s comments. It has been a nice, relaxing Sunday. Tomorrow I’m going to see some friends I haven’t seen in a year(ish) so I’m excited to see their reactions!
1/10 - 248.5
1/11 - 250 I’m stressed and 2nd gain is very disappointing. I was disappointed yesterday, I hadn’t expected a drop, but I wasn’t expecting a pound up. It was a busy day yesterday. The in-laws are STILL here, Husband had a basketball game about an hour away so I took a half day off and we didn’t get dinner until 8:00. If I were alone I would’ve eaten out of town, grabbed a McDs cheeseburger, eaten earlier, and been below my calorie goal. But FIL refused that plan and we at Sub Sandwiches an hour later… so to cut this long complaining story short, I expected another gain, but I’m still pissed about it.
1/12 249.5 I’m back with a more positive attitude today! 🙂 I did some stress crying and some cuddles with Husband last night and I’m feeling better today. I stayed under my calories yesterday and I have all my meals planned out for today with room for a little snack if I need/want one. I’m doing some shopping after school so I’ll get some extra steps in today as well. I’d love for the scale to get to 247 by the end of this round, so I’m still working towards that goal.
1/13 - 246 My meal plan went a little askew yesterday and I didn’t get to eat lunch, or much for dinner - I don’t think a 1,000 calorie day helped with the stress levels. BUT! I’m trying to continue with a positive attitude. Husband coached basketball again tonight, but it was a home game and I still got to make dinner, Stuffed Pepper Casserole, and the in-laws loved it! This has definitely been a roller coaster week. 🎢

I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.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!!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 138 – I need to take control again now. I have looked back over the last few years and this is a pattern, I don't do too bad over Christmas and then relax/go mad after New Year! So today is a new round and a new start, I need to get back at it & make each day count – easy to say, not so easy to execute!! 9.98 miles walked yesterday.
01/08 136.8 – thats better! Amazing what happens when I stick to plan, calories & macros well under & NO chocolate, not even a crumb; wouldn't even allow myself to enter the room where it is !!! Just need to stay consistent now for next 9 days. 10.21 miles walked yesterday.
01/09 137 – 9.07 miles walked yesterday. High carb day as Saturday is always pizza night in our house, but only 4 calories over & no chocolate. Today will be a challenge as we travel up to our DD to celebrate her birthday and I know birthday cake will be involved!! But I will keep it small.
01/10 137 – no walking or exercise yesterday, but a wonderful day with DD, DS & their families, good playing with little DGC. Not the best food choices ! Need to counteract today to try to prevent it showing on the scales tomorrow !
01/11 137 – 11.14 miles walked yesterday, good food choices, calories & all macros well in credit. My Fitbit is on it's way out - a few months ago the face cracked and now its only syncing & retaining a few activities. Luckily, it is counting my steps and mileage, but then not retaining it past midnight of that day, looks like I need to invest in a new one; I don't like change and see that the Charge HR is no longer available so it looks like I will be forced to have an updated model!
01/12 138 – 9.22 miles, a high carb & fat day yesterday, after walk went to my sisters new bungalow to help her decorate; 5 hours painting, up and down ladders. She provided lunch; cheese & biscuits followed by cake.
01/13 138 – 13.1 miles walked & an hour of yoga. Within calories, fat 11g over. New Fitbit to be delivered tomorrow !
01/14 137.2 – 9.72 miles walked yesterday. Calories under, carbs & fat 8g & 9g over respectively.

Hello round 174!
3rd round in a row (more before). Previous recent results -
R172 SW:104 EW:100.7 (⬇️3.3kg)
R173 SW:100.7 EW:101.4 (⬆️0.7kg)
R174 SW: 101.4 Goal: consistent <101. Go to gym twice (major problem as the gym is full of ppl these days even in generally down times)
01/07 - 100.2 🏋️♀️ (-1.2) I am not sure this happened. Was easy to keep it within calories yesterday but this can not be the result of a one time behaving. Epsecially not after the snacking in the few days before. But wil take it, need the encouragement right now.
01/08 - 100.1(-1.3) Finally empty at the gym yesterday. So went for a quick cardio + walking there and back which was refreshing at whooping -15 degrees. Still not sure why I didn't bounce but I will take it
01/09 - 100.0 (-1.4) Actually it was 99.95 but given the late weigh-in and the high chance for anomaly I didn't want to celebrate the milestone just yet.
01/10 - 100.0 (-1.4) Still rounding up. Trend line says <101 so if I don't mess this up till the end of the challenge I have at least a consistent <101 in place. Now need to see how I get to the gym with this Corona outbreak. Not easy to find low times and not sure if it is smart. But with the -18 and snow outside I don't have much alternatives.
01/11- 100.2 (-1.2) waiting for the wooosh. Yesterday was a snacking day so not surprising.
01/12 - 101.2 (-0.2) Must be salt and sedentry days. But I didn't really have that much salt I think. Is popcorn that much salty snack? Hope it is a glitch
01/13 - 101.5 (+0.1) 😐 Time to get back on track
01/14 - 100.0 (-1.4) Can't really explain this woosh

Day/Weight/Comment
1/7: 189 Eating was ok yesterday, but a bit higher calorie as I was finishing up some leftovers. Not much activity though.
1/8: 188.2 Food was pretty good but did have a couple drinks at the end of the day. Also still not getting much activity. Hopefully can work on that this weekend.
1/9: 188 Was hoping I’d have a bigger water weight whoosh at the beginning of this round, but it’s looking like I might already be in the slower moving phase. Oh well, I’m the only one responsible for where I’m at right now. Eating was alright yesterday, but still struggling on the activity front.
1/10: 188.8 Ugh no explanation for the uptick but hoping it’s just temporary. Made a yummy soup yesterday and got out to walk, despite the cold rain, to get over 9k steps.
1/11: 187.4 Was feeling munchy all day yesterday so was hard to stay on track. Did still manage to keep close to my calories though. Hoping for a good day today.
1/12: 186.2 Was not expecting this. Was over calories yesterday, though still under maintenance. Started stress eating in the afternoon, but managed to reign it in and avoid completely blowing the day. Feeling extra hungry this morning too, so we’ll see how today goes.
1/13: 186.6 Feeling in a bit of a funk. Yesterday was ok (under maintenance), but not great food-wise.
1/14: 187.6 No explanation for the uptick. Hoping to see it go back down before the end of the round.

My goal for 2022 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹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)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

R174: I’m just totally unfocused. I plan and execute meals wonderfully then sabotage my good efforts with poor choices in snacks. So this round … no more salty snacks or ice cream after lunch & dinner. AND no more picking up a Snickers when I grocery shop. If I break these bad habits I know that my weight will go down.
🎯Mini Goal: <205 (Repeat until I hit it!)
Exercise Goal for this round: Strength class 4x per week. Walk the dog 100 miles in Jan!
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
1/7 208.9 2021 cal (-507), 119 net carbs. Strength Training 1 hr. No walk Wednesday. Drove (round trip 2 hrs) to son’s home to deliver something they needed and of course stayed to visit with my new granddaughter. Meals were okay but snacking is still bad … especially since I snuck in a snickers when grocery shopping which is a bad habit I need to break!
1/8 209.7 Walked 1.2 + 1.1 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 1837 cal (-115), 137 net carbs, 1 glass wine. Really no explanation for the jump on the scale unless it is that I weighed in a couple of hours earlier … didn’t sleep. Snacking was reasonable. Wow yesterday just seemed to slip away from me … a little reading, too much computer time, dropped off old clothing to Women’s abuse shelter, groceries yet again and cooked double batch of jambalaya for family Sunday lunch.
1/9 211.6 No exercise. Drove (6 hr round trip) to New Braunfels for a day trip with DH which was fun attending the IPMS ModelFiesta show, shopping, lunch at GristMill in Gruene historic district on the Guadalupe River. Returning home stopped at my sisters for dinner which had tons of carbs (black beans & sausage w/ rice & cornbread). 2195 cal (-889), 215 net carbs, 1 beer at lunch + 1 wine at dinner.
1/10 210.9 Walked 2.5 miles, 1954 cal (-302), 202 net carbs, AF. All my kids got together to meet our new granddaughter today! Fun times. Jambalaya, salad, strawberries, pineapple and King Cake for lunch then just DH & I shared cheese & olives for dinner.
1/11 208.6 Walked .9 + .3 miles, Strength Training class 1 hr, 1874 cal (-251), 25 net carbs, 96oz water, AF. Grocery shopped AND followed my menu plan for the most part … switched out Wed & Mon menus but still I’m on point regarding the planning and executing. Now to get myself back into the green and not have negative red highlighted number under remaining calories! AND to get the scale going down consistently instead of these awful swings.
1/12 207.4 Walked 1.4 + 3 miles, Strength Training class 1 hr, 1714 cal (231 green!), 92 net carbs, 96+oz water again, AF. Nice chilly day exercising and relaxing reading The Maid by Nita Prose (highly recommend it). Evening alumnae meeting was a casual PJ and pizza party night after the chaos of the holidays. Proud to say I went comfy in my poodle pajama bottoms that now fit again!
1/13 207.6 Walked 2.9 miles, 1450 cal (203 green!), 44 net carbs, AF. Gumbo without rice but I stuck to my plan. Training class for volunteers teaching English to adults through our church. The program is kicking off again after stopping in March 2020. It will be harder this spring as we only have 1 volunteer teacher per class instead of 2. I’m going to miss my co-teacher but I understand why she is not returning. She is in her 70s and got Covid in our class back in Feb 2020 and since has had many related heart health issues. ALSO the class time overlaps with my TTH workouts so I'm working with my teacher to have access to videos to keep up!
1/14 207.7 Hmmmm Walked 1.4 miles, Strength Training class 1 hr, 1718 cal (-200), 39 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Too busy to snack which is a good thing! Scheduled my day out Planning my daughter’s baby shower with her SILs & friends. Lot of activity! Made 2 casseroles for my son & DIL that just had our granddaughter. Didn’t get to cut DH’s hair … guess that will happen today after I visit my granddaughter.

01/08 - 147
01/09 - 148.5
01/10 - 150.5 - I had a lot of sodium this weekend, but Wow!
01/11 - 150 - I was hoping yesterday's weight was an anomaly, but evidently not. I'm just going to have to stick to my eating plan.
01/12 - 149 - I've done well the past couple days with eating and movement.
01/13 - 149 - I am really shocked that I evidently gained 2 pounds last weekend. I kept hoping there would be a whoosh back to 147 or so this week. I'll keep logging my food and doing my best to get back to maintenance. I'm a little disheartened, but I've been doing this for almost 4 years and it is worth it.
01/14 - 149.5 - I have logged every bite this week, so I know the weight bump is not from what I've been eating. Sigh.

01/08 / 185.2 / Really had trouble sleeping overnight. Luckily today is low key so I can rest up more this morning as needed.
01/09 / 185.4 / Set a new 45 minute PR on the Peloton yesterday, finished up some leftover frozen appetizers from the holiday season, and watched some movies with the hubby. Also got out for my first outdoor walk of 2022... the weather is improving this week! Woo hoo!
01/10 / 184.8 / One of my intentions for 2022 is to use this new body I have in all sorts of fun ways. So, yesterday we went snowshoeing. It was a lot of fun and thank goodness the cold is breaking a bit here in Alberta. This morning I did my 100th Peloton ride live and got a shout out and that felt very encouraging to me. Proud of how far I've come and excited to keep moving forward.
01/11 / 184.6 / Hit my round goal - been feeling great, moving lots, and eating well. The nicer weather and the ability to be outside more comfortably for walks is a mood improver too. Work is busy so I think I'll enjoy the rest of the evening with my feet up.
01/12 / 183.4 / There are those rounds where the weight just seems to fall off! And in the moment it feels surreal. And then you're humbled by the next round. It feels great in the moment. Life feels busy this week, but just with routine stuff. One foot in front of the other
01/13 / 184.6 / Work is kicking my butt this week. Glad I got my Peloton ride in before work today because I'm exhausted tonight. Food has been good.
01/14 / 183.2 / Happy Friday. Weekend will be full of fun and movement. Just have to wrap up the work week first.

Goals: HIT.MY.STEP.GOAL!!! 10,000/day; <100 carbs/day; Pelo ride 2-3x/week; end the round lower than what I started it at.
1/7- 193.6 47 net carbs, Pelo ride done, and step goal achieved yesterday. Getting closer to my pre Christmas low!
1/8- 193.4 63 net carbs and almost made the step goal. It was a day spent in the kitchen decorating a cake, so a small loss is great considering.
1/9- 192.2 Only a pound away from my pre Christmas low! 63net carbs yesterday.
1/10-190.2 Well I’m not sure how that happened, but WOOHOO! I even had a beer with dinner last night, which I wasn’t sure how it would affect things. 72 net carbs and a Pelo ride in. Let’s make today great too!!
1/11- 189.8 NEW DECADE!! Even with pizza night and it’s extra carbs last night, I still dropped. I wound up resetting my calorie goal last weekend because the previous 1260/day was starting to take a mental toll. Now with an additional 200 calories a day, it’s much easier. Finished yesterday with 92 net carbs, step goal hit, and strength training done.
1/12- 189.8 I was hoping for a drop, but considering the big drops of late, I’m okay with staying the same. 88 net carbs yesterday and Pelo ride done. Planning to make today a lower carb day, as pizza and sushi the past two days have put me higher than usual. I suspect that might be influencing the scale just a bit.
1/13- 189.8 Stayed the same for the third day in a row. I’m going to guess my body is playing catch up from the big drops over the weekend, since yesterday was only 53 net carbs. Did my strength training too, but fell short on steps as I started to feel really nauseous while I was trying to get them in.
1/14- 191.0 I’m not sure why. I hit all of my goals yesterday- steps, Pelo, 53 net carbs. And it’s not yet time for the monthly hormonal shift. I just might have to have a glass of wine tonight. Maybe it would flush me out like the beer did on Sunday. 😂
