Just Give Me 10 Days -Round 177

63 yr young F, 5ft 4
Round 177 (109th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine. I'm back ! Been AWOL on an extended (3 generation) family holiday, a belated break for DH's 60th birthday from last year !! Had no scales with me & very patchy internet. Didn't log whilst away, but tried to keep some control & had lots of exercise, with 4 DGC all under the age of 4, we went to adventure playgrounds & swimming at a fun leisure swimming pool and I participated on everything!! I feel refreshed and ready for a new start so I hope to keep the ball rolling!! Aim to lose at least a pound by the end of the round.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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

2/10 138 – 10.9 miles walked plus an hours yoga. Calories & all macros in credit, good choices all day.
2/11 139.4 – no structured exercise; child minding DGS & took him to soft play. No too good food choices .
2/12 140 – oh dear my resolve was short lived, but this upward spiral has to stop 140 pounds – that's back to 10 stone ! Not been that heavy for over 5 years ! THIS HAS TO STOP ! Clothes will start to become too tight to wear soon! 7.81 miles walked yesterday.
2/13 138.6 – 9.11 miles walked, no mindless grazing yesterday, stayed within calories, but carbs 17g over (pizza within plan). I pre-logged food at breakfast and it worked, plan to do the same each day at least in this round. Too wet to walk today so plan is to go swimming.

2/6 / 178.6 / Nice drop after a big day of exercise yesterday. Going out to the mountains to snowshoe today. Weather is beautiful and we love being so close to such a beautiful spot. Makes outdoor exercising inspiring and helps combat the winter blues. These rounds sure do go fast, don't they? Can't believe another one is kicking off.
2/7 / 181.6 / Fun day yesterday in the mountains followed by pizza and hot chocolate afterwards. Did some light cardio exercise when I got home and used the hot tub. Stomach definitely feels bloated today which is not a feeling I deal with often.
2/8 / 181 / Did a strength test yesterday, rode the Peloton, did some boxing, and walked. Lots of movement! My husband also smoked beef ribs on his charcoal grill. Portion size was small to fit it in but it was very tasty. He is an excellent cook.
2/9 / 180.4 / Feeling pretty sluggish in the mornings this week which is a bummer, but what can you do. I let myself sleep in this morning and started the day with a hot shower. We have dinner out with friends tonight so I've pre-tracked and I'll be eating at maintenance.
2/10 / 177.8 / Turned my mornings around today with a 5 a.m. wake-up and 45 minute Peloton ride before work. I do feel so much better overall. Another supper out tonight with a different set of friends... same plan as yesterday (meal pre-chosen and pre-tracked).
2/11 / 178 / Busy work day and we are off to Banff right after we finish to meet up with an out of town aunt and uncle for dinner and drinks. Got up before work for a 60 minute Peloton ride. Enjoy the weekend!
2/12 / 176.2 / Great night in Banff with family. Drank a bit more than usual but walked to dinner and back... lots of movement in general yesterday. Did a snowshoe today and then came home. Off to take my mom for an overnight staycation in Calgary.

I love Banff, we went out there 16 years ago for a fortnight when DD & BF (now SIL) did their gap year after uni. DD worked at the horse riding ranch taking guests out for rides in the summer & as a waitress at Norquay ski runs in the winter, BF at the canoe docks in summer & booking tours in winter.
I loved everything about Banff; hot springs, gondala up mountain glacier, Canaloupes lake, Lake Louise & the trail up to the tea house & so many more places - wonderful memories.4 -

Good day yesterday, and my weekly calorie average is below maintenance, so I feel back in control. Sunday is soup day (my goal is to make a different soup every Sunday for a year—we’ll see), so I’m trying to decide…. In January, it was minestrone, mulligatawny, Morrocan harira, and creamy chicken tortilla. Come to think of it, I might have to repeat a few! 😁
2/07 - 179.2, 179.5
I settled on Vegged-out Pumpkin and Back Bean Soup last night. I subbed out one can of black beans for a can of cannellinis, and added half a cup each of green beans and corn. Delish, very low calorie, and very satisfying. I’m enjoying my “soup of the week” routine!
2/08 - 178.8, 179.3
Creeping back down. Now to keep it up. I did snarf some Triscuits last night when I got home from doggy school—skipped dinner and I was hungry. Today all planned. Reading your posts keeps me inspired—thank you!
2/09 - 178.6, 179.1
Another good day yesterday, and I have today’s menu all planned. My “exercise” will be pulling everything out of the walk-in mess, er, closet in my office to set up a new 5-shelf unit I got and then organize everything. I know that sounds thrilling—but it is because I have not had enough shelves and the jumble scares me every time I open the door! Ha!
2/10 - 178.6, 178.9
I keep reminding myself that a no-gain day is a good day, and slow weight loss lasts. 🙂 I’ve been catching up on a bunch of to-dos the past few days. Got my new shelves up and the mess off the floor in my office closet—yay! And I’ve been blocking some knitted items I finished a few months ago but never blocked, including this lace scarf. I’ve also been on a hat kick, aiming for “monthly hats” plus a few others. Here’s my Valentine hat for February. 🧶
2/11 - 177.6, 178.5
Finally! I actually went quite a bit over my calorie goal yesterday, but my weekly average is below, and I’ve found that sometimes a one-day increase pushes a loss, as long as I don’t get carried away. Back on track today.
2/12 - 178.6, 178.5
Okie dokie.
2/13 - 178.6, 178.4
Weird how stuck I get on certain weights. It has to give at some point, and I refuse to go to low-cal or other restrictive extremes—I know it was the very restrictive and very low-cal elimination diet (doctor & nutritionist prescribed) that “helped” me regain so much so fast and is making it much harder than it’s ever been for me to lose. But enough complaining. I’m looking forward to making my “soup of the week” today—potato leek soup! Perfect for a very cold day. Enjoy your Sunday!

Goals:Goal for round 177 is simple. Track honestly. Plan ahead. Return to exercise daily. I would like to be 134, or less, this round. My hope is to lose and average of 1 pound per round through April, which would put me at 127. I can decide from there if I want to go further like last year where I was averaging 123 for 4+ months.
The “boys”, AKA the cats, Harry and Han Solo, are going to get tracked once per round as well. Maybe this way I will not keep losing my data for them
SW: 134.8
Cats: Harry 10 lb 15 oz Han Solo 11lb 13 oz
2/6- 134.8 Yes, scale got smuggled into the car after our failed attempt to fly to Florida. We drove 708 miles yesterday. No exercise (no surprise). Tracked all my food, but allowed myself a little over as on the road selections are challenging. I topped out at a little over 1500 calories. Certainly will not make me gain, but contributes less to losing. Cats are doing fantastic. I think they recognized the hotel room from the last two years. Few hotels allow cats, and this one puts us in the same room each time. :P 738 miles is the plan for today. Will make it to MIL’s Florida home tonight. We’ll visit with her until Tuesday morning, then finish our drive to Marathon Key, Florida.
2/7- 136.2 Ouch, yes, yesterday I got derailed (won’t bore you with it), but that is a large uptick. At least I know
2/8- 136.2 Still dealing with food at MIL’s. Making best effort but a struggle. Loading the car shortly and we will be at our own home by mid-afternoon. Exercise starts at 7 am tomorrow with the girls I walk with in Florida. Will be nice.
2/9- 136.4 Argh.
2/10- DNW
2/11- 137.2
2/12- 137.0 Ok, so this round is totally not going as desired. I need to get this turned around and I won’t list excuses. This eating behavior has got to stop being my default. On another note though, I have walked between 4 and 6 miles each day since arriving. Heading out 15 min.
2/13- 136.8 certainly not making it to 134 this round. Yesterday, I made plenty of bad choices despite walking 6.5 miles. We had had three guests over the night before and had wanted to have an easy desert to offer if needed. I bought Ice cream and baked brownies, and no one wanted desert. Soooooo, yesterday, I had lots of brownies for breakfast, whole container of ice cream and left over pizza for lunch, and normal dinner, followed by more brownies. BUT, the ice cream, brownies and pizza are now all gone. Today is a storm in the Keys, going to try and take advantage and get a hold on tracking habits again and finally catch up on reading here in the group. Going to get on the spin bike as well. It’s 9:30 am, and I haven’t screwed up yet. :P

2/13 / 179.6 / Every meal yesterday was out and they were definitely bigger. We had a nice night in Calgary with my Mom. I did get a Peloton ride in too before we left.

2/6- 198.0 (+.6) Yesterday was my first day at maintenance. What does that mean? I changed my goal from losing two pounds a week to losing .5 pounds a week. That increased my daily calories from 1200 to 1590. My low weight was four days ago at 195.6 but overall my weight loss has slowed to a crawl. I had my indulgence meal on Thursday which I’ve been having once a week since I started and so a bump up was not unexpected. I started logging here on MFP the beginning of June 2021 and was following the State of Slim plan which is a program I went through almost seven years ago. There is a book that outlines all the details and research. I’ve modified and refocused that plan on calories through MFP. Game changer for me. SOS (State of Slim) suggests giving your body a diet break after 4-5 months. That doesn’t mean giving myself permission to go back to my old eating habits. Instead, increasing calories to maintenance allows me to test the waters and could provide a reset to my body so it gets back into the weight loss mode. I did this in October for a week, which was during challenge 169 (above) and lost .2 pounds. The following challenges, I lost 5.2 pounds and 4.0 pounds and then gained a pound in Challenge 172 which was over the holidays. My overall goal is to lose 104.1 (160) pounds and I’m currently down 66.1 pounds, so I have 38 to go. Several of our wise sages on MFP suggested I read this post and the comments when I was approaching the last maintenance break. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10604863/of-refeeds-and-diet-breaks/p12/7 I’m going to still be attentive on weighing and measuring my food and will keep up my exercise. It feels good to do this reset. I think I hit tired mode a few days ago so this is good timing.
2/7- 197.0 (-.4) I had an indulgence meal at the end of the last round, so my weight is coming down from that. It’s amazing how the extra maintenance calories take some of the pressure off. I always have such high expectations to lose almost every time I step on the scale. Now I can relax a little. Today is no planned exercise, but tomorrow I’ll be back in the pool. I do have a bit of the winter doldrums and can’t wait to get back to hiking in the spring.
2/8- 195.6 (-1.8) Wow! Back at my low weight from last Thursday. I’m guessing my body is just getting rid of salt from my indulgence meal at the end of the last round. I’m eating about 1590 calories a day, which is what MFP suggests for a half pound loss a week. That’s up 390 calories a day from what I was doing when I had it set at a 2 pound a week loss. Now that I’m here, it will be interesting to see what this maintenance break brings. I’m excited to swim today.
2/9- 195.2 (-2.0) I ate up to maintenance calories and about a third of my exercise calories. It felt like so much food. Swimming was wonderful. This is a new low weight for me. Today, I’m meeting two of my favorite artists to catch up and play. I can’t wait.
2/10- 195.2 (-2.0) Had a great day yesterday connecting with several of my artist friends. Swimming is on the agenda today.
2/11- 195.4 (-1.8) Yesterday was really busy so I moved my swimming today. Things are going well and I’m enjoying the maintenance break. Spring is just around the corner and it will be nice to head back up to the mountains and hike every weekend.
2/12- 196 (-1.2) Swam a mile at the pool yesterday in 66 minutes, which is a new speed record for me. Everyone in the pool swims laps much faster than I do, so I’m only concerned with swimming my best. I ate late and didn’t drink all my water, which is why I probably had a bump. Not at all worried. Today is Orange Theory Fitness. Only a few days left in this break. It has been a good one at a good time for me. I’ll be ready to get back on track for the next round of weight loss.
2/13- 196 (-1.2) Great workout at OTF. I can do so much more, including inchworms. While I hate them, I’m still hoping to do burpees one day.

My sincere condolences go to you and family for the loss of your brother. These are very stressful times but we have to continue to take care of ourselves for ourselves and our loves ones.
@IsMollyReallyHungry I think the doctor actually dropped the ball because I see no reason why there would have been insurance trouble after flunking two EKG's. I'm sure the doctor is on (putting in for those required pre-authorizations) now that they saw me again. I admit, I do dread starting this heart process because the nearest heart doctor is 2 1/2 hours away (each way). I'm sure there will be plenty of tests and appointments. I hate winter driving in my rural snowy area, but I know it must be done. Thanks for the encouragement. I will follow through in spite of all the challenges.5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
02/05 …..196.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
02/06 …..194.6 ….. (Trend weight 195.5) Nice drop. Yesterday wasn’t perfect but it was pretty good. I must admit that the binge night before last left me not desiring food for most of the day. I really wasn’t very hungry until evening then I tried to make good choices and watch the quantities. I burned a few more calories, got a few more steps and came closer to mile goal with my fitbit but not by design so much, more by projects I was naturally involved in but it still counts! I’m sure the extra bit of movement helped. One of my cumulative goals in the next few rounds will be to get back to 185 and then proceed as originally planned at some substantial weight loss. Good luck everyone this round.
02/07 …..195.4 ….. Trend weight 195.5) Yesterday was an excellent day in both diet and an increase in steps/activity. I’m not sure why the uptick except that it was a weigh-in about 3 hours earlier than usual due to DGS waking me up again. It could be that. It could be the binge finally showing up, or the high sodium Mexican the other day. In any case, I know I am on track and feel very pleased with myself right now. The scale has no choice but to cooperate at some point if I can keep this momentum up. Livingroom kind of done, but furniture still covered and askew. Time to start building the new walls and archway so that an annoying support beam will look more like a header. My handyman is notoriously slow at drywall but good at building. Slow at paint too, but the price is right and he is dedicated. Here we go with another l..o..n..g project!
02/08 …..193.4 ….. (Trend weight 195.1) A wonderful Whoosh which makes me feel so encouraged. Hold onto your hat 180’s. I’m running a bit late, but I promise, I’m on my way!
02/09 …..193.4 ….. (Trend weight 195.1) Holding steady. I’ll take it!
02/10 …..196.0 ….. (Trend weight 195.2) My daughter bought pizza for us and the handyman on the job yesterday. 3 slices later this is my result. 2.6 lbs up! It did taste very salty because I don’t have it often. I’ll push water today. The rest of the day was on point. Hopefully tomorrow will fare better.
02/11 …..194.8 ….. (Trend weight 195.1) An okay day yesterday reflected better on the scale. Doctor appointments today for son & I for diabetes. Also for heart for me. They are going to send me to a heart and vascular center I guess. It doesn’t pay to flunk two EKG’s. They were supposed to do it late last fall but had trouble with insurance. Then I let it go due to all the holidays and then my brother’s death. Time to get things right with my heart now. I’ve gotten to the point where I am a little afraid to even exercise with all the sinking and fluttering I am feeling. Need answers.
02/12 …..197.8 ….. (Trend weight 195.4) Dr. yesterday. I’ll find out glucose A1C results next week. Fasted for the bloodwork until after 3:00. Then pigged out on Subway. Cake at home- twice. Took advantage of the fact that I won’t need glucose checking again for 3 full months. Trying to get away with murder here but I’m the one dying if I don’t start getting this right!
02/13 …..197.4 ….. (Trend weight 195.6) Very high glucose last night due to all the choices in the days prior. Pizza, Subway, Cake. I was so sick with all the rich foods. I could barely eat dinner last night thus the drop in weight more than likely. I just couldn’t get enough water as my body desperately needed to flush out the mistakes. Feeling a little better this morning. Hopefully this will keep me on track today.
02/14 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
02/15 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

2/6: 143.5 - Happy to hold steady. Was cleaning the pantry and tasted a few things to see if they were still good. Yep, M&M’s don’t go stale.
2/7: 144.8 - Good workouts. Dinner at a friend’s house with delicious everything. Didn’t overindulge too much, except on cheese, crackers and olives. Oh, and maybe a little wine and champagne. Okay, I guess I did overindulge.
2/8: 144.8 - Normal workouts and eating.
2/9: 144.8 - Normal workouts, but some evening snacking did me in calorie- and macro-wise
2/10: 143.5 - Back to where I started the round. Extra long walk plus a slightly lighter workout. Ate back half of my exercise calories..
2/11: 144.0 - Normal workout, normal eating, albeit on the higher end of the range.
2/12: 143.5 - Went for a long walk, normal eating, good sleep.
2/13: 142.9 - Normal workout and walk, good eating (a little low on protein, higher carbs), okay sleep.

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.
2/6- 187.4 96 net carbs and Pelo ride done. Happy with the loss!
2/7- 188.4 I did well with food yesterday-58 net carbs. I fell short on steps though. I think the gain is from spending time on my feet in the kitchen yet again. I wish I could find a way to prevent or minimize that. I find that it also happens if I spend too much time sitting at my sewing machine. It gets so frustrating! The only help I’ve found for it is getting on the Pelo after a day of baking.
2/8- 187.8 Had a great day yesterday- 46 net carbs, step goal hit, and strength training done. I am starting to think I’ve hit a bit of a plateau. Sure, I’m down a bit this morning, but I’ve just been staying within the same 3lb range for the past three weeks or so. I’ll just keep plugging along.
2/9- 187.8 I think maybe I need a bit of a maintenance break. I’ve been going hard pretty much since August. And now I seem to be a bit stuck. So as of today, I’m increasing my calorie goal for the next week or two. Finished yesterday with 43 net carbs, step goal hit, and Pelo ride done.
2/10- 189.4 Not unexpected nor surprising. Ate at maintenance level yesterday. 82 net carbs, but short on steps.
2/11- 189.4 62 net carbs and Pelo ride done. This maintenance thing is more challenging than weight loss mode. I find I have a hard time hitting close to the recommended calories, and have been finishing short.
2/12- 188.2 Was a little surprised by the drop. 58 net carbs.
2/13- 188.8 59 net carbs and Pelo ride done. Fell short on steps, but I’m not mad about that.6 -

People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!

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.

I think I forgot to push the blue button “Post Reply” yesterday. Blame it on winter fog. I am looking forward to seeing pictures of @SheilaBoneham ‘s back yard this spring.

Rough morning in process here. I woke up at 1:30 and could not get back to sleep. So, I got up a read a novel for a couple hours. Went back to bed but feeling it right now.

Enjoyed (a little too much) a men’s group chili-tasting at church last night. Six contestants, six unique recipes. Chocolate chip cookie palate cleanser between tastings. Voting: each person given six dry beans. Vote by putting beans in the cup next to your favorite(s.) I voted three-each for my two favorites. One of my favorites won, the other got third.

Churning.
It is time to try something different. Also, to add something to slow the aging process a bit. (I know I can’t reverse it! Ha!)
Slipped and fell on the ice in a parking lot last night. Kinda hurts all over today. Here is why:
1. Pride. Yes, that is part of it, so let’s get that one out of the way first.
2. I was not able to catch my balance. (something I am noticing these days even as I walk across a room.) Catching my balance used to be one of my superpowers. (I know, I watch too much Marvel Universe.)
3. I was not able to catch my fall. (I can barely do a push up these days, let alone gracefully cushion a four-point landing) The muscles that tried to catch the fall are sore today.
Before the pandemic, I used to hit the gym 3-4 times a week. Spinning, “some” weight training, and Yoga. I like group exercise, but offerings at the gym are very limited these days. Excuses excuses.
So that means I need to step it up on my own and with online inspiration.
Diet is another matter. I must knock the carb monkey off my back. He climbed on in December and he is living there rent free.
@Nahlei reminds me I need to eat more protein. I never hit the recommended amount.
Thanks for reading. I am not feeling sorry for myself. Maybe motivated.

Round # 44 for me!
SW: 373.0 (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)
2/06 373.0 – 4494 steps
2/07 373.0 – 4840 steps. Had a splurge day yesterday – I thought I would have gained today. I did not track yesterday. I ate out for the first time in over a month and did not get sick and enjoyed my meal. Back on it today. Now I am going to make it no eating out every 10 days vs the regular 7-day week since I did the whole month of January successfully. I have lost 7 pounds so far this year and I am doing a happy dance. My goal this month is to successfully get to the next decade. I am going to be very busy the next 2 weeks so I may not be posting nothing but my weigh ins.
2/08 373.0 – 5724 steps.
2/09 372.2 – 5412 steps. What a rotten day yesterday at work! Drama for you Mama…. But I don’t even want to chat about it because it was so deep. But I am over it and the good thing is I did not binge because of the drama I ate very healthy, under calories and got in a good walk. But I did have a sleepless night because of drama at work which tells me it upset me more than I would have liked But this is life. I am happy I managed my emotions without turning to food. I called a friend and thank goodness I had a session with my therapist scheduled also. I even went to grocery store after work and did not pick up any additional junk food to sooth my emotions. I texted my boss I would not be in until noon to get my thoughts together and sleep late. I would have taken a sick day if I was not going on vacation Friday.
2/10 371.6 – 5146 steps. Busy, busy but staying on track and getting in short walks daily.
2/11 371.6 – 3233 steps. Finally on vacation! But it will be a busy one. I must be careful not to overindulge while I am cleaning and doing taxes I went a little over calories but nothing to cry about for sure. I did not have time for a walk because I was working late since I am on vacation until the 22ND. I am going to chill today but get in a workout for sure.
2/12 372.6 – 5308 steps. I had my popcorn and pizza yesterday so I know why I went up, but it was planned. So, I understand with the sodium the bump up. I feel great, got in some de-cluttering this morning already. That is one my vacation projects. I have 5 weeks’ vacation this year and I may use one of them to go to a hotel and stay close by in a car, but I am not getting on a plane anytime soon. I got in my walk. Hoping I can squeeze in a loss this challenge! Lol! It is going to be tough with Olympics, Super Bowl and vacation but I keep telling myself you can DO IT! I also brought the premium MFP this morning! I said what the heck…it is only $80 for year and free adds alone make it worth it for me at less than $7 per month…. lol Much cheaper than WW by a long shot! Besides, I am worth it! So far, I like setting my sodium to less than 2300 mg. After vacation I will try some of the other features. How many of you use MFP premium? If you do, and you have time please share one or two things you like the most about it besides the free ads. Thanks in advance and have a great SUPER BOWL WEEKEND!
2/13 372.6 – 5662 steps. Super bowl Sunday!

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.7 -

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.

SW: 280
2/6: 266.6 - Down 13.4 pounds - Today was the first day since I restarted my journey that I craved something other than my prepared food. It took everything I had in me not to pop into some fast food joint. I've worked too hard to give up now.
2/7 - 267.2 - Down 12.8 pounds - A little annoyed by the increase, but when I woke up sore this morning I anticipated a slight gain. I ate right and worked out so I'm proud of myself.
2/8 - 265.8 - Down 14.2 pounds - I am feeling so much stronger than the previous week. I did a yoga workout and I was able to do so much more, stretch so much farther, and stay engaged in the moves longer. This is so exciting.
2/9 - 265.4 - Down 14.6 pounds - Eating right and working out is paying off. I am on track to beat my February goal of 259 pounds. Hooray 🎉
2/10 - 264.4 - Down 15.6 pounds - Progress is so satisfying! Today ends week 2 of my 3 week exercise program. So excited to finish this program, enjoy a few days off, and then on to the next program.
2/11 - 264.6 - Down 15.4 pounds - Two weeks down and 1 week to go in my current exercise program. So proud of myself. I'm up .2 pounds but I'm okay with that. Last time I went up I had a nice loss the next day. I also measured myself and my breast and hips are losing inches. So exciting!
2/12 - 265 - Down 15 pounds - The scale is confusing me but I’m still so proud of myself.
2/13 - 265.6 - Down 14.6 pounds - The scale is evil. I'm looking good and feeling good though.

Previous Posts2/6 Got a new phone today. iPhones are so seamless to upgrade that it never really feels like you get a new phone. Did a Turkish get up, deadlift, push-up work up and then leg day for strength. Hit 215 for sets of 4 on back squat. I’ve been eating at a higher calorie level for the past week and still feel pretty hungry. Having lots of fun watching the Olympics! Back to work tomorrow for a couple days. Protein: 142
2/7 work 1/2. The hospital is getting military nurses for the Covid surge.. buuut the surge is ending and we are in the process of closing beds to Covid to convert back to neuro 🤷♀️ Still having fun watching the Olympics. Roasted cauliflower, farro, tomato, spinach dish with tofu for dinner. Protein: 128
2/8 work 2/2. Shadowing in the cath lab tomorrow. Mojo black bean and kale bowls with seitan for dinner. Protein: 128
2/9 Super nice day here today! Did a rowing sprint workout, took a walk, push day for strength. 115# for sets of 4 bench press. I was curious about my form on deficit push-ups and had my husband take a video and was surprised at how jacked my back is looking. Roasted cauliflower, bean, tahini soup with tofu for dinner. Protein: 160
2/10 Another really nice day! I did a kettlebell swing, farmer’s carry, weighted deadbug workout, took two walks (my dog was so happy), and did a pull day with lots of deadlifts for strength. Mushroom stroganoff with seitan for dinner. Protein: 168
2/11 busy day! I had to take my husband in for an eye procedure this morning and then spent the rest of the day shadowing with the vascular access team. I think I finally found what I’m looking for if I change jobs.. buuut the spot is filled. At least I got my name in with them and know I am interested for when there is another opening. I am super sore today and strength was programmed for another push day. I did a jump rope, burpee/DB deadlift, thruster workout and decided I was feeling too beat to do another push day.. so I took a walk instead. Curried cauliflower fried rice with tempeh for dinner. Protein: 130
2/12 work 1/2. Tomato chickpea stew (with tahini and olives and spinach. Yum) and tofu for dinner. Protein: 136

I’ll probably try to get the dirt ready next week and seeds in the ground the week after. My window is like feb15-march 10 for cool season plants. My 2 a day workouts will most likely decrease when the gardening season really gets going. There will be some treats around between valentine’s and my in laws visiting at the end of the week. I probably will let myself back up to maintenance while they are here/ not stress about tracking everything.

Round 177 (109th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
I'm back ! Been AWOL on an extended (3 generation) family holiday, a belated break for DH's 60th birthday from last year !! Had no scales with me & very patchy internet. Didn't log whilst away, but tried to keep some control & had lots of exercise, with 4 DGC all under the age of 4, we went to adventure playgrounds & swimming at a fun leisure swimming pool and I participated on everything!! I feel refreshed and ready for a new start so I hope to keep the ball rolling!! Aim to lose at least a pound by the end of the round.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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

2/9 138 – need to play catch up on a weeks entries now !!
2/10 138 – 10.9 miles walked plus an hours yoga. Calories & all macros in credit, good choices all day.
2/11 139.4 – no structured exercise; child minding DGS & took him to soft play. No too good food choices .
2/12 140 – oh dear my resolve was short lived, but this upward spiral has to stop 140 pounds – that's back to 10 stone ! Not been that heavy for over 5 years ! THIS HAS TO STOP ! Clothes will start to become too tight to wear soon! 7.81 miles walked yesterday.
2/13 138.6 – 9.11 miles walked, no mindless grazing yesterday, stayed within calories, but carbs 17g over (pizza within plan). I pre-logged food at breakfast and it worked, plan to do the same each day at least in this round. Too wet to walk today so plan is to go swimming.
2/14 138 - 20 mins of breast stroke (14 lengths), 2.7 miles walked; rain prevented any additional miles, this caused me to be over on calories, carbs & fat; 162, 49 & 10 respectively, full roast Sunday lunch & cheese, port and crackers for tea. But no mindless grazing and stuck to the logged food.
