Round 184 ( my 116th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

It's just over 4 weeks to DS wedding and I still messing about. What can I say that I haven't already. Feeling despondent. Need to lose this round, just lose!

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 then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

SW: 199.6 on 4/12

Goals: Lose some weight in 10 days. Even if it’s 0.2 ounces! Weight lifting and closing my activity rings. Along with averaging a deficit each week!

This is my first round. I will weigh on 4/26. Weighing everyday drives me nuts! I lost 52 pounds over 3 years, but I’ve gained 25 back :-/. Time to get serious about getting it back off!

4/17 - Easter celebrations! 😑
4/18 - Back on track!

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 / 167.6 / Third day in a row holding my normal BMI weight so that makes me feel happy. Working on getting a bit of a cushion now so that upward fluctuations are not putting me back in the overweight category. This is really just an "on paper" goal that makes me feel good, but I am looking forward to it. The sun is out, we've started the day with a large brunch, and we're hoping to get out to the mountains for a bit of adventure yet today.
4/18 / 168.6 / Busy work from home day today but I squeezed in my Peloton ride as part of my lunch hour. My husband and I will walk our dog after supper instead now that we have daylight for longer. Turkey meatballs with broccoli and a cauliflower potato mash for supper tonight.

@SheilaBoneham Cataract surgery was the easiest surgery that my husband and I have ever had AND there is instant gratification!

Thanks for that, @quiltingjaine. I’m scheduled for surgeries in June. Now I’m trying to decide between the standard surgery or one of the two more expensive corrective-lens surgeries. A lot of money, but it’s a once-in-a-lifetime things, so tough decision.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17: 221.9 - I used to do these challenges, but the past few months I had some issues with depression and weighing and tracking were too much for me mentally, so I spent the last couple of months focusing on my mental health. I have been doing better and for the last few weeks I've started back tracking and making healthy changes. So, I was excited to see this challenge starting today so I can start back to daily weighing.
4/18: -222.0 Had a great day with my trainer yesterday and then went out for 3-mile walk. Today I tried a new recipe and it turned out really good.

Goals for this round:

Generally, regain some semblance of discipline….

I am switching up my logging method to rounding to the nearest whole pound. Too much daily anxiety over these fractions!

Major Goal this round is to just lower my ten-day average.

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.

/ none / Welp, this is a well-deserved kick in the teeth. Easter dinner was AMAZING. My contribution was a spiral cut ham on the smoker with lots of “value added,” like maple syrup with brown sugar-based meat rub between every layer. I ate too much of that plus twice baked potatoes, green bean casserole, corn pudding, dinner rolls, strawberry rhubarb pie, etc. etc. (did I mention Easter candy?)

So, today’s reading is not totally me. It includes all the above and significant water retention.

Happy Monday all!

4/19 - 151.1 - Got some of that bloat to disappear and I feel better. Mirror isn't as friendly as the feeling, so good thing I'm focusing on health and not looks. Looks will come in time with a consistent healthy lifestyle. Tracked all food and stayed under "exercise" calories (which was just the little bit of walking I managed throughout the day). I'm content with that. High likelihood I'll have to travel next week for work. Looks like leaving Monday, returning Wednesday. I have a couple appointments and an event happening on Friday so it better not go longer than Thursday. Not much else to report, simply chugging along and trying to get back on track health-wise

4/18 - Not quite enough water through the weekend. I did manage to get my 90oz yesterday but our Easter lunch (Linner?) is still bubbling in there this morning. Not sure if it's not sitting right or what. At least I don't feel sick, just uncomfortable. A bit of a lazy weekend, too. I think we all needed it after work weeks followed by crazy, hectic, busy weekends doing manual labor. Back on water this morning to hopefully get this bloat down a bit, I'm feeling extra bleh carrying it around. Not much else to report.

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

4/17 - 178.8
Ok, made yesterday’s <179 goal today, in spite of a few jelly beans last night. We’re going to friends’ for dinner, so I’m eating light during the day. Happy Easter, Passover, Ramadan, and whatever else you might be celebrating! 🪺

4/18 - 179.6
Not a surprise after last night’s dinner. I didn’t try to count calories, though I may still enter what I remember. Other than jelly beans, nothing was too crazy caloric. Off this morning for evaluation for upcoming cataract surgery. Not looking forward to this adventure.

4/19 - 181
Time lag from Sunday + salt yesterday. Calories were good, so this is temporary. Eye eval went well yesterday and I’m scheduled for June surgeries, but I still have a lot of Qs and feel like I’m being rushed into this. I’m going to do a bunch of research and then decide whether to go forward or postpone. The only vision issue I have is night driving, and I rarely do that. We’ll see. Off to doggy school!

Hi I'm Allison. I've been experiencing 2 types of things regarding my weight. Either it stays the same - at 180, OR, I go 2 pounds down, then 2 pounds up - LOL. Time to change this. A couple of years ago I made it down to 160. But my calorie intake was too low and therefore unsustainable.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 - 180
4/18 - 180 ** Gonna try to be positive and make this work
4/19 - 179.6 ** I’m going to make today a good day food wise. My legs hurt yesterday - so I think today I’ll take a break from walking/treadmill/elliptical - and do some arm work. Will continue yoga, too. On Day 3 of Yoga with Adriene - her 30 day series which began in January. There’s so much I can’t do ! But, I’m still going to try.

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. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

4/17 120.5. GKI 9.3 Lots of carbs yesterday because I ate a bowl of bran flakes trying to get things moving and 1 slice of veggie pizza at the quilt show. Quite happy with that! Walked over 7000 steps - about 3 times by usual - very happy with that too!
4/18 120.5 GKI 9.3 Hung out with recent widower friend. Lox, cream cheese, crackers and cheese followed by Italian sausage and cheesecake.
4/19 121.5 GKI 7.5 OMAD Great Greek salad with steak. Eating was good, I only ate about 1/8 of a pita. Increase is from carbs over the weekend and no TMI. I think I’m full of 💩 LOL I couldn’t pass that up. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Hi, I’m Kathy.
57, F, 5’8”
10th round! Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.

Return to MFP SW (Dec 2021): 267
HSW: 267
RSW: 240.0
UGW for now: 195, then reevaluate

Goal for this round: less than I started with
2022 goals: move more (okay, move some), eat mindfully

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 240.0
4/18 240.0 The reality of this weekend: not enough water, eating and enjoying things I only typically make 1-2 times/year, some stress, some movement, not enough sleep, skipped the gym. Not reality: I did not eat 7,000 calories, so I know this will drop in a few days! Now back on the plan.
4/19 239.6 Back to the gym yesterday and back on track. Meals for today are planned and logged.

Update: No traveling! The new maintenance manager will be going since I don't have a company credit card yet. Yippee! Takes a lot of stress off of me, at least financially.

@SheilaBoneham I considered monovision and the doctor said since I had adapted quickly to seeing with one contact when I was 18 that I would adapt to it quickly. However, I decided to go with distance in both. Last fall, after 9 years, I noticed I was having trouble with reading street names while driving and asked about that. I was told that was because of my astigmatism. I got a pair of progressive bifocals with magnetic sun glasses to wear when driving. Problem solved.

4/18 ~ 184.6 - 15,100 steps and 95 active minutes. Went for a beautiful 6k walk around a lake then a visit with the GDs they are so sweet. Easter dinner today and hopefully a good walk in. Hope everyone had a great round.
4/19 ~ 185.9 - 14,200 and 89. Got in a small walk and had a great dinner with family including dessert, chocolate and wine!! SO has gone off to work, looks like a few weeks so I should be able to get back to my lower weight soon. Just have to fight all this rain in the forecast. Oh so looking forward to sunny days.

4/20 ~ 186.6 - 17,600 and 118. Little unexplained jump up. My days have been like that the last few, not worried as I am still going in the right direction for calories and exercise. Got in a great walk yesterday in the pouring rain.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/16 …..201.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

04/17 …..203.4 ….. (Trend weight 201.5) A good day yesterday dietary-wise. However, day 2 of no TMI and a serious lack of steps yesterday. Gotta burn what you eat!

04/18 …..204.8 ….. Trend weight 201.8) Did someone say Easter Dinner?

04/19 …..199.2 ….. (Trend weight 201.5) We went out for Easter Dinner and to see the Easter Bunny and find eggs with DGS #4 because of a lack of kitchen during my reno. I felt like I ate a normal amount and did not even finish. Yesterday (Monday) I was so swollen in my calves and ankles and stomach that I was miserable. I pushed water and only got in my 250 steps 3 times out of 13 on my fitbit. Barely over 3000 steps for the day. On the couch all day with headache and miserable uncomfortable swelling. My doctor recently gave me a water pill to help aid my heart until I see the cardiologist June 1st. It is prescribed to take 2-3 times a week which is why I sometimes feel my weight will go up & down. I took the pill yesterday and those steps are from going back & forth potty. I also took a magnesium pill to help with TMI because it had been a few days. Both worked. Imagine my shock to see over 5 ½ pounds down overnight when I was so immobile! Glad to see it under 200! I feel much better today but I’m starving and my body wants to make up for the lesser amounts of food yesterday. I’ll choose wisely.

Round 184 ( my 116th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

It's just over 4 weeks to DS wedding and I still messing about. What can I say that I haven't already. Feeling despondent. Need to lose this round, just lose!

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 then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

4/17 192.6 (+3.6) I had a huge binge day yesterday. I was planning to have an indulgence meal and then never stopped. I enjoyed every minute. The beauty of this is that I was confident I could get back on plan. Under calories today and a nice long walk with the dogs on a beautiful Easter Day. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!
4/18 192.0 (+3.0) No organized exercise and a busy day today. Weight is starting to drop already. Now, just to stay consistent.
4/19 190.0 (+1.0) Heading to the pool this morning. My vacation begins in two and a half weeks. I’ve got a lot to do before then. I was hoping to be closer to 180 by now, but still happy with all of the progress I’ve made in the last year. I can’t believe I’m 30 pounds away from goal weight. I saw a number of former co-workers yesterday and they told me over and over again how great I looked. Some days I really see the difference and others all I can see are the rolls that still exist. My plan for vacation is to enjoy my meals but to eat smaller portions. I’ll be gone for two weeks. I know I’ll gain weight, but hopefully it resets my body so when I return, I’m in losing mode and can finally bust past this semi plateau. On countdown!!

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Hi everyone, my last round here was in March 2019 (R69) with a weight of 185.6. Back now at 225 (ugh!) Unchecked thyroid levels = rapid weight gain during the height of covid quarantine. I don’t have a thyroid due to cancer and blah, blah, here I am today heavier than ever.

Anyway, this challenge was really helpful in keeping me accountable a few years ago, so I am jumping back in! Will do my first official weigh in tomorrow morning.

Love seeing some familiar faces still at it here. You are all AMAZING!
