Current weight: 210
Daily Focus:
Weigh in everyday in June
Stay under calorie goal 6 out of 7 days per week
Exercise 4 days a week
June 5 220. Joining this thread for some extra accountability. I've gotten back into a good exercise groove, but now for the hard part - getting control of my eating. First time on a scale in years!
June 6 219 lbs
June 7 216 lbs - Scale number didn't look right, but I'll take it! Probably some water weight.
June 8 216 lbs - Had a good day of eating and getting exercise
June 9 216 lbs - Ate well and got some exercise in despite an all day corporate event
June 10 216 lbs
June 11 215 lbs felt brain fog, ate over calories on purpose. No exercise
June 12 215 lbs ate a bit over calories, lifted weights
June 13 215 lbs - Really bad day of eating. On the positive side, I got back on the scale and back in this app today!
June 14 215 lbs - Hit calorie goals and exercised
June 15 214 lbs - Good day of eating. Mostly eating the same things at the same time. Strength training workout did not go well. Felt very fatigued and cut things short.
June 16 did not weigh or track
June 17 did not weigh or track
June 18 214 lbs going on vacation not sure if there will be a scale and judging and logging food will be a challenge.
June 19 213 lbs Ate well, strength training at gym. Leaving for vacation!
June 20 DNW. Ate well, a little over calories, no exercise
June 21 DNW. Ate well, lots of steps and kayaking.margaritas pushed me over calories. Challenging when everyone else in the house views vacation as a chance to gorge themselves for a week.
June 22 DNW Ate under calories and got a lot of steps in
June 23 DNW Ate at calories, lots of walking. Proud of how well I have navigated the eating out and drinking.
June 24 DNW Tracked Calories and hit goal
June 25 DNW Tracked calories, walked for an hour and kayaked for an hour
June 26 DNW TRacked calories, walked for an hour
June 27 211 lbs. Back from vacation. Tracked calories, went over. No exercise.
June 28 210 lbs. Lost another lb, probably water weight / dehydration. My calories are set to 1.5 lbs per week, not expecting scale to move that fast. Strength trained with my son at gym yesterday. Family is taking me out to Top Golf for a birthday dinner / outing today. My plan is to track, but not limit calories.

06/27.…..198.2…..(Trend Weight 203.5)…… Onederland, Onederland!!!! But a 4 ½ lb loss overnight? Hard to believe. I took batteries in and out several times. Then tried new ones. Even moved the scale to my non-typical spot. Yep, 198.2. The only explanation is that I did take my waterpill yesterday since I was home. (I won’t be able to take it the next 3 days as I’ll be away from home). But THAT much water retention due to heart no pumping properly? Wow! So today is the ultrasound on the heart and I get hooked up to a heart monitor I will wear home for a couple of days. Then traveling even further south for some building supplies at a special store. Going with my son. When we hit the big city I promised him golden corral and we may try to fit in the Elvis movie. Scale will be up tomorrow from GC and lots of sitting but I plan on making it a nice day for the two of us. Watch what you put on the plate Donna!
Congrats Donna. Water is heavy! Welcome to Onederland. Hope you get to stay there too!!!!

@swimmom Thanks for the congrats! I do know that water is contributing to the ups and downs. But Hey, look at me, no water pill yesterday and way too much sitting, as you'll see in my post, and still down! I think the biggest help at this point, is that I have been logging again (except when I go out of town, just too confusing still yet). It really makes me take a GOOD HARD LOOK at what I'm poking in my pie hole. Some of those condiments and extras like crackers are just not worth it. I'll take an extra egg instead! Thanks for the support. It means a lot to have like minds in my corner!

My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 62 years old and from the Midwest USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

06/24.…..203.2…..(Trend Weight 204.2)…..
06/25.…..203.8…..(Trend Weight 204.2)…… Up a bit from some unexpected travel to buy a industrial paint sprayer. Stopped for Mexican food and ate about half. I didn’t bother to take the rest home. Hopefully this is it and more won’t show up later, as it sometimes does. My resolve is still good and I hope to keep this train rollin’, rollin’ rollin’ .
06/26.…..202.8…..(Trend Weight 204.0)……A nice drop overnight. Obviously, no restaurants or travel yesterday or it would have been a different picture more than likely. I carefully planned and logged my meals and snacks. I didn’t get in enough movement, it was just too hot. But I appreciate the progress. Tomorrow is the first of the travels for the heart ultrasound and to have the heart monitor placed to wear home. I will be traveling, more than likely, after that even further for some special supplies I need from Menards that I can’t get at home depot, so it will be even further away than usual from my rural town. I’ll either go tomorrow or Wed when I go back to the hospital for the stress test, nuclear stress test and to take off the monitor. I haven’t decided yet. I do know that I want to wrap up the supply shopping and the medical on the same day to avoid an extra day of travel. Travel = pounds for me.
06/27.…..198.4…..(Trend Weight 203.5)…… Onederland, Onederland!!!! But a 4 ½ lb loss overnight? Hard to believe. I took batteries in and out several times. Then tried new ones. Even moved the scale to my non-typical spot. Yep, 198.2. The only explanation is that I did take my waterpill yesterday since I was home.

So today is the ultrasound on the heart and I get hooked up to a heart monitor I will wear home for a couple of days. Then traveling even further south for some building supplies at a special store. Going with my son. When we hit the big city I promised him golden corral and we may try to fit in the Elvis movie. Scale will be up tomorrow from GC and lots of sitting but I plan on making it a nice day for the two of us. Watch what you put on the plate Donna!
06/28.…..198.8…..(Trend Weight 203.0)…… I had yesterday’s weight off by 0.2 so I have corrected it. I’ll take what I see today on the scale gladly after so much travel sitting, hospital sitting, theater sitting and Golden Corral. Ultrasound was completed and I have a monitor on now (that added a few ounces to my scale too?). Feeling really motivated right now seeing the 100’s instead of 200’s, even after travel. I have my oldest grandson’s birthday deal with me later today. I am taking him to the salon for a facial and acne treatment (pimple extraction). I want to see how his skin reacts. Would be such a nice thing before school pix etc. I am back to travel/hospital tomorrow for the nuclear stress test and monitor removal. I am working hard to stay focused and not let the situations limit my progress. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very stressed out about the stress test. I hope I don’t have a heart attack in the middle of it. When I say I can’t breathe, I’m being serious here. But I do want some answers. By the way, I loved, loved, loved the Elvis movie. Even my 25 year old son really liked it and he’s not exactly an Elvis fan. It was as much about Col. Tom Parker as it was Elvis. A very interesting story and all the actors were wonderful including Tom Hanks. Rotten Tomatoes gave it high scores and it tied for number one at the box office this past opening weekend with Top Gun Maverick. Glad I went.

Daily Goals:

🌱Plan meals and log in advance
🌱Log honestly and consistently
🌱Eat at or under my calorie goal
🌱
June 1-152.2 lbs- 6.6 lbs for May but not my most recent low.
June 2-153 lbs Logged in 385 days straight! Everyday since I started 5/14/21. Wearing size 6 Bermuda shorts to my hair appointment today. I've been able to put them on for about 2 months but wouldn't wear them out of the house before because of my overhanging flabby belly.
June 3-153 lbs
June 4-154.4 lbs Too many carbs yesterday. 2 sessions on the elliptical total 224 minutes for 20 miles, mowed the lawn for 2:03, a rider.
June 5-158 lbs Too many carbs last 2 days and sure it's water retention with them too. (Why do carbs have to be so tasty and addictive?) Did my Elliptical today, 167 minutes for 13.11 miles. My plan was to do another session later today but now my motivation is gone. Probably why I am better at long first sessions. I did add "girl" pushups, planks and just hanging from my son's pull up bar. To increase my strength. Not that I'm weak. (I'm a nurse and I pull even big guys up in beds for a living!) But I can always get stronger. Build up my muscle mass to burn more calories and fill out the flabby loose skin!
June 6-160.2 lbs A number I was hoping I would NEVER SEE AGAIN. :-(
June 7-161 :-( My own fault. Too many carbs. Did 188 minutes on my elliptical for 14.25 miles today and pushups/plank.
June 8-161 lbs
June 9-161 lbs
June 10-160 lbs Nice surprise because it wasn't because of me. Did 180 minutes on the Elliptical today for 14 miles.
I started feeling ill Monday pm. Cough, fever; 102.4, stuffed up. Took a Covid test Tuesday pm and it was negative. Fever down now running around 100. Today after the elliptical my nose hasn't stopped running. Took another Covid test in case other one was too early but this one also negative, Thank God. I had my vaccines and 1 booster. So I was hoping it wouldn't be that, but others with the vaccines have still gotten it. Just a REALLY ROTTEN late Spring cold now with sinus pressure and eyes keep watering. :-(
June 11-161 lbs Did Elliptical, 210 minutes for 16.3 miles. Feeling better than the last 3 days, hoping to feel even better tomorrow!
June 12-161 lbs. Did Elliptical 211 minutes for 16.2 miles. Feeling even better today. Mild symptoms now and back to work tomorrow.
Been MIA. I had to go to work everyday this past week, so first I have time to post. I did login though each day. No off days, so no exercise till today.
June 13-164 lbs
June 14-162.2 lbs
June 15-163.2 lbs
June 16-163 lbs
June 17-162 lbs
June 18-160.2 lbs Elliptical 242 minutes for 16.26 miles. My cold/runny nose/cough is still hanging on. I can't wait to feel normal again! Now to catch up on everyone's posts.
June 19-158.2 lbs :-) Elliptical 241 minutes for 18 miles. Wish my cough would get over with!
June 20-159.4 lbs :-( Not sure why. I stayed within my guidelines but ate some extra because of the exercise. Oh well. Just need to stay the course and see.
June 21-157 lbs. Least it's heading back down again!!! My usual elliptical but today I felt good at 18 miles so I continued to 26.25 miles once again. This time my pace was slower so it took me 372 minutes. When I did it before, May 29,2022, it was 337 minutes. About a 14+ minutes/mile compared to sub 13 minutes/mile the earlier time.
June 22-155.4 lbs :-)
June 23-154.4 lbs :-) Coughing is much less, less post nasal drip and thinner secretions. Finally feeling better from this cold!
June 24-154.4 lbs :-) Elliptical 200 minutes for 12.53 miles and ran some errands.
June 25-154.4 lbs :-( Was hoping for a bit of a drop. At least it didn't go up. :-)
June 26-154.4 lbs :-( Again was hoping I would drop a bit. 190 minutes on my Elliptical for 12.56 miles and 120 minutes on the riding lawn mower today.
June 27-156 lbs :-( Not happy but I'm SO SENSITIVE to carbs. Stayed way, way under my allotted calories with my exercise yesterday. But I had half of a sweet potato with leftover prime rib I made a couple days ago. If I wouldn't have had it I'm thinking it wouldn't have gone up! :-(
June 28-154.6 lbs. Up, down, up, down. Did Elliptical, 215 minutes for 16.3 miles. The amazing thing is I used the arm poles the whole time. I've never done that before as my arms would get tired. I had a total of 4 different ways I would place my hands. On the handle bars and 2 different ways on the mileage/timer console. My mileage was about 13.2 minutes/mile. A bit faster pace!

June 1 - 166.2 (Slowly making my way back down to my maintenance range after my travel bloat. Happy to be starting here in a very similar spot to where I started May.)
June 2 - 165 (Busy day yesterday with work and a trip to the eye doctor, but I did squeeze 60 minutes of walking in on my lunch break and when we got home.)
June 3 - 162.8 (In a self sabotaging head space so I'm off to bed early.)
June 4 - 160.6 (After a night of sleep, I feel a lot better. Aiming to get 10,000 steps today and hopefully doing most of it before it pours rain.)
June 5 - 162.2 (Woke up to the sound of rain on the trailer. Coming down pretty hard. We need the rain for sure. My mom is in Afib and hasn't been able to come out with medication so when I get home her doc has asked that we go to the hospital, so I'm feeling anxious about that.)
June 6 - 160.4 (Worked from home, rode the Peloton at lunch, and then had a sleep apnea follow up appointment after work. Going to request a new sleep study to see if my weight loss has eliminated it.)
June 7 - 162.2 (Ate good meals and got over 15,000 steps today. Out of the office for corporate events the rest of the week so work was busy today getting everything prepared for that.)
June 8 - 162.2 (Today I am golfing with work for a customer event. First round of the year.)
June 9 - 160.8
June 10 - DNW
June 11 - 163.2 (Back at the lack for the weekend after a whirlwind two day business trip. I drank too much on the golf course the one day, but overall my choices were okay. One week till we leave for Vegas.)
June 12 - 163.4 (Super rainy day here at the lake. I haven't gotten more than 1,000 steps yet and it's already mid afternoon. I will make up my exercise later today but for now I'm just relaxing.)
June 13 - 162.2 (Rough day at work but I had a couples massage tonight and I'm feeling more zen.)
June 14 - 160.8 (I was tossing and turning before my alarm so I got up early and hopped on the Peloton. Love starting my day with exercise. It's super rainy here - will be doing my walking indoors at lunch.)
June 15 - 159.8 (Had a big day of exercise yesterday as I rode the Peloton a second time. Riding a bit ahead in my program since I'm away from my bike next week in Vegas.)
June 16 - 158.6 (Donated blood yesterday so I took it easy on the exercise front. Still got my 10,000 steps. Leaving for Vegas in two days so I'm still eating at a small deficit to create a bit of buffer for what I assume will be a small weight gain while I'm there.)
June 17 - 159 (Work is wrapped up and I got a few more outfits for Vegas. Still need to pack!)
June 18 - 160.8 (Vegas baby! Just about to take off. Looking forward to our getaway.)
June 19 - DNW (First 24 hours in Vegas has been great. I was able to use the hotel gym this morning for a Peloton workout. Getting tons of steps too.)
June 20 - DNW (The steps keep on coming. We had a large supper yesterday but until then my food was reasonable. Saw The Blue Man Group after doing some outlet mall shopping.)
June 21 - DNW (Started the day with a treadmill and strength workout, had some good BBQ, a trip to Fremont, and then dinner and the Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil show. Really enjoying my vacation.)
June 22 - DNW (Treadmill and exercise bike to start yesterday, followed by our friends celebrating their 25th anniversary with a Vegas vow renewal. We left them after drinks and hubby and I went to Hell's Kitchen for a delicious and very indulgent meal.)
June 23 - DNW (We are officially home and I'll be back on the scale tomorrow. I can feel the puffiness of water retention from the plane, and all the indulgence. The number tomorrow is going to be a big one, but I'll see where I'm at by month end to really gauge how the trip impacted me.)
June 24 - 175.4 (Back from holiday with a ton of water retention. Time to flush it out and get back to routine. We are still off work today so it's been a lazy start but I'll hit the Peloton before we go to the trailer.)
June 25 - 173 (Good day yesterday. Did 20 minutes of upper body strength, a Peloton walk, and a nearly 60 minute walk with my husband and dog. We ate well and watched a movie at night at the trailer.)
June 26 - 167.8 (Here is my body dealing with the crazy excess as I expected it would. I am definitely on track eating at my deficit and helping things along. It's good to know I am in control. Getting my exercise and making smart food choices - no excuses!)
June 27 - 165.2 (Weather is beautiful. Got a short walk in before my workday started. First day back and we are having IT issues so it's been sort of frustrating. Dinner plans with friends got cancelled due to illness on their part so I will have a more relaxed evening now.)
June 28 - 163.6 (Busy work day, a walk at lunch, and a 90 minute couples massage after work.)

06/28.…..198.8…..(Trend Weight 203.0)…… I had yesterday’s weight off by 0.2 so I have corrected it. I’ll take what I see today on the scale gladly after so much travel sitting, hospital sitting, theater sitting and Golden Corral. Ultrasound was completed and I have a monitor on now (that added a few ounces to my scale too?). Feeling really motivated right now seeing the 100’s instead of 200’s, even after travel. I have my oldest grandson’s birthday deal with me later today. I am taking him to the salon for a facial and acne treatment (pimple extraction). I want to see how his skin reacts. Would be such a nice thing before school pix etc. I am back to travel/hospital tomorrow for the nuclear stress test and monitor removal. I am working hard to stay focused and not let the situations limit my progress. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very stressed out about the stress test. I hope I don’t have a heart attack in the middle of it. When I say I can’t breathe, I’m being serious here. But I do want some answers. By the way, I loved, loved, loved the Elvis movie. Even my 25 year old son really liked it and he’s not exactly an Elvis fan. It was as much about Col. Tom Parker as it was Elvis. A very interesting story and all the actors were wonderful including Tom Hanks. Rotten Tomatoes gave it high scores and it tied for number one at the box office this past opening weekend with Top Gun Maverick. Glad I went.
06/29.…..201.0…..(Trend Weight 202.8)…… I’m not too surprised to see the jump up even though it is always disappointing. Celebrated DGS 16th birthday yesterday and ended up about 246 calories over. I feel some of this is also from the outing the day before catching up to me. I mean, I was careful but it WAS Golden Corral. Today is travel back to the hospital. Nervous about the testing and missing my coffee already. Afterward, Shopping and restaurant lunch with my friend who is going with me later. I will keep my eye on the ball and watch what I order.

June 6 219 lbs
June 7 216 lbs - Scale number didn't look right, but I'll take it! Probably some water weight.
June 8 216 lbs - Had a good day of eating and getting exercise

June 14 215 lbs - Hit calorie goals and exercised
June 15 214 lbs - Good day of eating. Mostly eating the same things at the same time. Strength training workout did not go well. Felt very fatigued and cut things short.
June 16 did not weigh or track
June 17 did not weigh or track
June 18 214 lbs going on vacation not sure if there will be a scale and judging and logging food will be a challenge.
June 19 213 lbs Ate well, strength training at gym. Leaving for vacation!
June 20 DNW. Ate well, a little over calories, no exercise
June 21 DNW. Ate well, lots of steps and kayaking.margaritas pushed me over calories. Challenging when everyone else in the house views vacation as a chance to gorge themselves for a week.
June 22 DNW Ate under calories and got a lot of steps in
June 23 DNW Ate at calories, lots of walking. Proud of how well I have navigated the eating out and drinking.
June 24 DNW Tracked Calories and hit goal

June 26 DNW TRacked calories, walked for an hour
June 27 211 lbs. Back from vacation. Tracked calories, went over. No exercise.
June 28 210 lbs. Lost another lb, probably water weight / dehydration. My calories are set to 1.5 lbs per week, not expecting scale to move that fast. Strength trained with my son at gym yesterday. Family is taking me out to Top Golf for a birthday dinner / outing today. My plan is to track, but not limit calories.
June 28 212 lbs - Tracked, went way way over calories but thats ok. Unfortunately I pulled a muscle in my back at the gym yesterday, so exercise is going to be pretty limited for a couple of days. Will focus on my eating.2 -
Excited to join another one of Jill’s challenges! 🏖 Gonna focus on getting back into my routine and hope to see 147 this month.

Weight lost this year: gained 5 lb
My goal this month is to focus on my calorie intake. I can't handle the huge swings in the scale. I weighed 182 on Sunday and now I am 189. That is too much for me to handle. And I know it will go down quick but it is freaky to me.
My weight goal back to 180 lbs.
June 1 189 lbs yikes 😬
June 8 185 lbs Wednesday weigh in. Well back at it. Less activity this week because of more errands to do. Been tracking my food & calories. I have been eating a lot of bread after dinner. Eliminate that for next week.
June 15 184.5 lbs not much change. Been doing a lot of physical work around the house but eating the equivalent in calories.
June 22 184.5 lbs. This is a pleasant surprise. I haven't been able to weigh myself. Also I have been eating out so much. Just happy no weight gain. But back to every day weigh-in.
June 23 184.5 lbs My scale is not digital. I just go to the closest half pound. I was between 184 & 184.5.
June 24 184lbs well it is official 184. It took me less than 2 weeks to gain 9 lbs and almost a month to lose 5lbs. This spring was a setback but it is behind me.
June 29 184 lbs still maintaining this weight.

June 1-152.2 lbs- 6.6 lbs for May but not my most recent low.
June 2-153 lbs Logged in 385 days straight! Everyday since I started 5/14/21. Wearing size 6 Bermuda shorts to my hair appointment today. I've been able to put them on for about 2 months but wouldn't wear them out of the house before because of my overhanging flabby belly.
June 3-153 lbs
June 4-154.4 lbs Too many carbs yesterday. 2 sessions on the elliptical total 224 minutes for 20 miles, mowed the lawn for 2:03, a rider.
June 5-158 lbs Too many carbs last 2 days and sure it's water retention with them too. (Why do carbs have to be so tasty and addictive?) Did my Elliptical today, 167 minutes for 13.11 miles. My plan was to do another session later today but now my motivation is gone. Probably why I am better at long first sessions. I did add "girl" pushups, planks and just hanging from my son's pull up bar. To increase my strength. Not that I'm weak. (I'm a nurse and I pull even big guys up in beds for a living!) But I can always get stronger. Build up my muscle mass to burn more calories and fill out the flabby loose skin!
June 6-160.2 lbs A number I was hoping I would NEVER SEE AGAIN. :-(
June 7-161 :-( My own fault. Too many carbs. Did 188 minutes on my elliptical for 14.25 miles today and pushups/plank.
June 8-161 lbs
June 9-161 lbs
June 10-160 lbs Nice surprise because it wasn't because of me. Did 180 minutes on the Elliptical today for 14 miles.
I started feeling ill Monday pm. Cough, fever; 102.4, stuffed up. Took a Covid test Tuesday pm and it was negative. Fever down now running around 100. Today after the elliptical my nose hasn't stopped running. Took another Covid test in case other one was too early but this one also negative, Thank God. I had my vaccines and 1 booster. So I was hoping it wouldn't be that, but others with the vaccines have still gotten it. Just a REALLY ROTTEN late Spring cold now with sinus pressure and eyes keep watering. :-(
June 11-161 lbs Did Elliptical, 210 minutes for 16.3 miles. Feeling better than the last 3 days, hoping to feel even better tomorrow!
June 12-161 lbs. Did Elliptical 211 minutes for 16.2 miles. Feeling even better today. Mild symptoms now and back to work tomorrow.
Been MIA. I had to go to work everyday this past week, so first I have time to post. I did login though each day. No off days, so no exercise till today.
June 13-164 lbs
June 14-162.2 lbs
June 15-163.2 lbs
June 16-163 lbs
June 17-162 lbs
June 18-160.2 lbs Elliptical 242 minutes for 16.26 miles. My cold/runny nose/cough is still hanging on. I can't wait to feel normal again! Now to catch up on everyone's posts.
June 19-158.2 lbs :-) Elliptical 241 minutes for 18 miles. Wish my cough would get over with!
June 20-159.4 lbs :-( Not sure why. I stayed within my guidelines but ate some extra because of the exercise. Oh well. Just need to stay the course and see.
June 21-157 lbs. Least it's heading back down again!!! My usual elliptical but today I felt good at 18 miles so I continued to 26.25 miles once again. This time my pace was slower so it took me 372 minutes. When I did it before, May 29,2022, it was 337 minutes. About a 14+ minutes/mile compared to sub 13 minutes/mile the earlier time.
June 22-155.4 lbs :-)
June 23-154.4 lbs :-) Coughing is much less, less post nasal drip and thinner secretions. Finally feeling better from this cold!
June 24-154.4 lbs :-) Elliptical 200 minutes for 12.53 miles and ran some errands.
June 25-154.4 lbs :-( Was hoping for a bit of a drop. At least it didn't go up. :-)
June 26-154.4 lbs :-( Again was hoping I would drop a bit. 190 minutes on my Elliptical for 12.56 miles and 120 minutes on the riding lawn mower today.
June 27-156 lbs :-( Not happy but I'm SO SENSITIVE to carbs. Stayed way, way under my allotted calories with my exercise yesterday. But I had half of a sweet potato with leftover prime rib I made a couple days ago. If I wouldn't have had it I'm thinking it wouldn't have gone up! :-(
June 28-154.6 lbs. Up, down, up, down. Did Elliptical, 215 minutes for 16.3 miles. The amazing thing is I used the arm poles the whole time. I've never done that before as my arms would get tired. I had a total of 4 different ways I would place my hands. On the handle bars and 2 different ways on the mileage/timer console. My mileage was about 13.2 minutes/mile. A bit faster pace!
June 29-155.4 lbs :-(

Weight lost this year: gained 4 lbs
My goal this month is to focus on my calorie intake. I can't handle the huge swings in the scale. I weighed 182 on Sunday and now I am 189. That is too much for me to handle. And I know it will go down quick but it is freaky to me.
My weight goal back to 180 lbs.
June 1 189 lbs yikes 😬
June 8 185 lbs Wednesday weigh in. Well back at it. Less activity this week because of more errands to do. Been tracking my food & calories. I have been eating a lot of bread after dinner. Eliminate that for next week.
June 15 184.5 lbs not much change. Been doing a lot of physical work around the house but eating the equivalent in calories.
June 22 184.5 lbs. This is a pleasant surprise. I haven't been able to weigh myself. Also I have been eating out so much. Just happy no weight gain. But back to every day weigh-in.
June 23 184.5 lbs My scale is not digital. I just go to the closest half pound. I was between 184 & 184.5.
June 24 184lbs well it is official 184. It took me less than 2 weeks to gain 9 lbs and almost a month to lose 5lbs. This spring was a setback but it is behind me.
June 29 184 lbs still maintaining this weight.
June 30 184 lbs Well lost 5lbs but did not hit my 180 lbs

Daily Focus:
Weigh in everyday in June
Stay under calorie goal 6 out of 7 days per week
Exercise 4 days a week
June 5 220. Joining this thread for some extra accountability. I've gotten back into a good exercise groove, but now for the hard part - getting control of my eating. First time on a scale in years!
June 6 219 lbs
June 7 216 lbs - Scale number didn't look right, but I'll take it! Probably some water weight.
June 8 216 lbs - Had a good day of eating and getting exercise
June 9 216 lbs - Ate well and got some exercise in despite an all day corporate event
June 10 216 lbs
June 11 215 lbs felt brain fog, ate over calories on purpose. No exercise
June 12 215 lbs ate a bit over calories, lifted weights
June 13 215 lbs - Really bad day of eating. On the positive side, I got back on the scale and back in this app today!
June 14 215 lbs - Hit calorie goals and exercised
June 15 214 lbs - Good day of eating. Mostly eating the same things at the same time. Strength training workout did not go well. Felt very fatigued and cut things short.
June 16 did not weigh or track
June 17 did not weigh or track
June 18 214 lbs going on vacation not sure if there will be a scale and judging and logging food will be a challenge.
June 19 213 lbs Ate well, strength training at gym. Leaving for vacation!
June 20 DNW. Ate well, a little over calories, no exercise
June 21 DNW. Ate well, lots of steps and kayaking.margaritas pushed me over calories. Challenging when everyone else in the house views vacation as a chance to gorge themselves for a week.
June 22 DNW Ate under calories and got a lot of steps in
June 23 DNW Ate at calories, lots of walking. Proud of how well I have navigated the eating out and drinking.
June 24 DNW Tracked Calories and hit goal
June 25 DNW Tracked calories, walked for an hour and kayaked for an hour
June 26 DNW TRacked calories, walked for an hour
June 27 211 lbs. Back from vacation. Tracked calories, went over. No exercise.
June 28 210 lbs. Lost another lb, probably water weight / dehydration. My calories are set to 1.5 lbs per week, not expecting scale to move that fast. Strength trained with my son at gym yesterday. Family is taking me out to Top Golf for a birthday dinner / outing today. My plan is to track, but not limit calories.
June 29 212 lbs - Tracked, went way way over calories but thats ok. Unfortunately I pulled a muscle in my back at the gym yesterday, so exercise is going to be pretty limited for a couple of days. Will focus on my eating.
June 30 211 lbs - Tracked and hit calorie goal. No exercise. Starting from yesterday my hunger level has really kicked in. It seems like my body finally caught on to what I'm up to!3 -

06/28.…..198.8…..(Trend Weight 203.0)…… I had yesterday’s weight off by 0.2 so I have corrected it. I’ll take what I see today on the scale gladly after so much travel sitting, hospital sitting, theater sitting and Golden Corral. Ultrasound was completed and I have a monitor on now (that added a few ounces to my scale too?). Feeling really motivated right now seeing the 100’s instead of 200’s, even after travel. I have my oldest grandson’s birthday deal with me later today. I am taking him to the salon for a facial and acne treatment (pimple extraction). I want to see how his skin reacts. Would be such a nice thing before school pix etc. I am back to travel/hospital tomorrow for the nuclear stress test and monitor removal. I am working hard to stay focused and not let the situations limit my progress. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very stressed out about the stress test. I hope I don’t have a heart attack in the middle of it. When I say I can’t breathe, I’m being serious here. But I do want some answers. By the way, I loved, loved, loved the Elvis movie. Even my 25 year old son really liked it and he’s not exactly an Elvis fan. It was as much about Col. Tom Parker as it was Elvis. A very interesting story and all the actors were wonderful including Tom Hanks. Rotten Tomatoes gave it high scores and it tied for number one at the box office this past opening weekend with Top Gun Maverick. Glad I went.
06/29.…..201.0…..(Trend Weight 202.8)…… I’m not too surprised to see the jump up even though it is always disappointing. Celebrated DGS 16th birthday yesterday and ended up about 246 calories over. I feel some of this is also from the outing the day before catching up to me. I mean, I was careful but it WAS Golden Corral. Today is travel back to the hospital. Nervous about the testing and missing my coffee already. Afterward, Shopping and restaurant lunch with my friend who is going with me later. I will keep my eye on the ball and watch what I order.
06/30.…..DNW…..(Trend Weight DNV)…… After 3 days of travel sitting, a 4 hour (mostly sitting) testing window and restaurants, I did not want to see the temporary rise again, so I will weigh tomorrow and take the punches then. Hopefully it will not be too inflated by then. Heart monitor is off. Now I wait for a call from the doctor for immediate results, then an appt on July 12 for a treatment plan. I will use tomorrow’s weight as my June end weight and my July start weight.

June 4-154.4 lbs Too many carbs yesterday. 2 sessions on the elliptical total 224 minutes for 20 miles, mowed the lawn for 2:03, a rider.
June 5-158 lbs Too many carbs last 2 days and sure it's water retention with them too. (Why do carbs have to be so tasty and addictive?) Did my Elliptical today, 167 minutes for 13.11 miles. My plan was to do another session later today but now my motivation is gone. Probably why I am better at long first sessions. I did add "girl" pushups, planks and just hanging from my son's pull up bar. To increase my strength. Not that I'm weak. (I'm a nurse and I pull even big guys up in beds for a living!) But I can always get stronger. Build up my muscle mass to burn more calories and fill out the flabby loose skin!
June 6-160.2 lbs A number I was hoping I would NEVER SEE AGAIN. :-(
June 7-161 :-( My own fault. Too many carbs. Did 188 minutes on my elliptical for 14.25 miles today and pushups/plank.
June 8-161 lbs
June 9-161 lbs
June 10-160 lbs Nice surprise because it wasn't because of me. Did 180 minutes on the Elliptical today for 14 miles.
I started feeling ill Monday pm. Cough, fever; 102.4, stuffed up. Took a Covid test Tuesday pm and it was negative. Fever down now running around 100. Today after the elliptical my nose hasn't stopped running. Took another Covid test in case other one was too early but this one also negative, Thank God. I had my vaccines and 1 booster. So I was hoping it wouldn't be that, but others with the vaccines have still gotten it. Just a REALLY ROTTEN late Spring cold now with sinus pressure and eyes keep watering. :-(
June 11-161 lbs Did Elliptical, 210 minutes for 16.3 miles. Feeling better than the last 3 days, hoping to feel even better tomorrow!
June 12-161 lbs. Did Elliptical 211 minutes for 16.2 miles. Feeling even better today. Mild symptoms now and back to work tomorrow.
Been MIA. I had to go to work everyday this past week, so first I have time to post. I did login though each day. No off days, so no exercise till today.
June 13-164 lbs
June 14-162.2 lbs
June 15-163.2 lbs
June 16-163 lbs
June 17-162 lbs
June 18-160.2 lbs Elliptical 242 minutes for 16.26 miles. My cold/runny nose/cough is still hanging on. I can't wait to feel normal again! Now to catch up on everyone's posts.
June 19-158.2 lbs :-) Elliptical 241 minutes for 18 miles. Wish my cough would get over with!
June 20-159.4 lbs :-( Not sure why. I stayed within my guidelines but ate some extra because of the exercise. Oh well. Just need to stay the course and see.
June 21-157 lbs. Least it's heading back down again!!! My usual elliptical but today I felt good at 18 miles so I continued to 26.25 miles once again. This time my pace was slower so it took me 372 minutes. When I did it before, May 29,2022, it was 337 minutes. About a 14+ minutes/mile compared to sub 13 minutes/mile the earlier time.
June 22-155.4 lbs :-)
June 23-154.4 lbs :-) Coughing is much less, less post nasal drip and thinner secretions. Finally feeling better from this cold!
June 24-154.4 lbs :-) Elliptical 200 minutes for 12.53 miles and ran some errands.
June 25-154.4 lbs :-( Was hoping for a bit of a drop. At least it didn't go up. :-)
June 26-154.4 lbs :-( Again was hoping I would drop a bit. 190 minutes on my Elliptical for 12.56 miles and 120 minutes on the riding lawn mower today.
June 27-156 lbs :-( Not happy but I'm SO SENSITIVE to carbs. Stayed way, way under my allotted calories with my exercise yesterday. But I had half of a sweet potato with leftover prime rib I made a couple days ago. If I wouldn't have had it I'm thinking it wouldn't have gone up! :-(
June 28-154.6 lbs. Up, down, up, down. Did Elliptical, 215 minutes for 16.3 miles. The amazing thing is I used the arm poles the whole time. I've never done that before as my arms would get tired. I had a total of 4 different ways I would place my hands. On the handle bars and 2 different ways on the mileage/timer console. My mileage was about 13.2 minutes/mile. A bit faster pace!
June 29-155.4 lbs :-(
June 30-157.4 lbs :-( Going to be off work now for 5 days. No plans. Just going to enjoy a stretch of days off!

June 1 - 166.2 (Slowly making my way back down to my maintenance range after my travel bloat. Happy to be starting here in a very similar spot to where I started May.)
June 2 - 165 (Busy day yesterday with work and a trip to the eye doctor, but I did squeeze 60 minutes of walking in on my lunch break and when we got home.)
June 3 - 162.8 (In a self sabotaging head space so I'm off to bed early.)
June 4 - 160.6 (After a night of sleep, I feel a lot better. Aiming to get 10,000 steps today and hopefully doing most of it before it pours rain.)
June 5 - 162.2 (Woke up to the sound of rain on the trailer. Coming down pretty hard. We need the rain for sure. My mom is in Afib and hasn't been able to come out with medication so when I get home her doc has asked that we go to the hospital, so I'm feeling anxious about that.)
June 6 - 160.4 (Worked from home, rode the Peloton at lunch, and then had a sleep apnea follow up appointment after work. Going to request a new sleep study to see if my weight loss has eliminated it.)
June 7 - 162.2 (Ate good meals and got over 15,000 steps today. Out of the office for corporate events the rest of the week so work was busy today getting everything prepared for that.)
June 8 - 162.2 (Today I am golfing with work for a customer event. First round of the year.)
June 9 - 160.8
June 10 - DNW
June 11 - 163.2 (Back at the lack for the weekend after a whirlwind two day business trip. I drank too much on the golf course the one day, but overall my choices were okay. One week till we leave for Vegas.)
June 12 - 163.4 (Super rainy day here at the lake. I haven't gotten more than 1,000 steps yet and it's already mid afternoon. I will make up my exercise later today but for now I'm just relaxing.)
June 13 - 162.2 (Rough day at work but I had a couples massage tonight and I'm feeling more zen.)
June 14 - 160.8 (I was tossing and turning before my alarm so I got up early and hopped on the Peloton. Love starting my day with exercise. It's super rainy here - will be doing my walking indoors at lunch.)
June 15 - 159.8 (Had a big day of exercise yesterday as I rode the Peloton a second time. Riding a bit ahead in my program since I'm away from my bike next week in Vegas.)
June 16 - 158.6 (Donated blood yesterday so I took it easy on the exercise front. Still got my 10,000 steps. Leaving for Vegas in two days so I'm still eating at a small deficit to create a bit of buffer for what I assume will be a small weight gain while I'm there.)
June 17 - 159 (Work is wrapped up and I got a few more outfits for Vegas. Still need to pack!)
June 18 - 160.8 (Vegas baby! Just about to take off. Looking forward to our getaway.)
June 19 - DNW (First 24 hours in Vegas has been great. I was able to use the hotel gym this morning for a Peloton workout. Getting tons of steps too.)
June 20 - DNW (The steps keep on coming. We had a large supper yesterday but until then my food was reasonable. Saw The Blue Man Group after doing some outlet mall shopping.)
June 21 - DNW (Started the day with a treadmill and strength workout, had some good BBQ, a trip to Fremont, and then dinner and the Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil show. Really enjoying my vacation.)
June 22 - DNW (Treadmill and exercise bike to start yesterday, followed by our friends celebrating their 25th anniversary with a Vegas vow renewal. We left them after drinks and hubby and I went to Hell's Kitchen for a delicious and very indulgent meal.)
June 23 - DNW (We are officially home and I'll be back on the scale tomorrow. I can feel the puffiness of water retention from the plane, and all the indulgence. The number tomorrow is going to be a big one, but I'll see where I'm at by month end to really gauge how the trip impacted me.)
June 24 - 175.4 (Back from holiday with a ton of water retention. Time to flush it out and get back to routine. We are still off work today so it's been a lazy start but I'll hit the Peloton before we go to the trailer.)
June 25 - 173 (Good day yesterday. Did 20 minutes of upper body strength, a Peloton walk, and a nearly 60 minute walk with my husband and dog. We ate well and watched a movie at night at the trailer.)
June 26 - 167.8 (Here is my body dealing with the crazy excess as I expected it would. I am definitely on track eating at my deficit and helping things along. It's good to know I am in control. Getting my exercise and making smart food choices - no excuses!)
June 27 - 165.2 (Weather is beautiful. Got a short walk in before my workday started. First day back and we are having IT issues so it's been sort of frustrating. Dinner plans with friends got cancelled due to illness on their part so I will have a more relaxed evening now.)
June 28 - 163.6 (Busy work day, a walk at lunch, and a 90 minute couples massage after work.)
June 29 - 162 (Work stress is high and it impacted my movement today. Will not compensate for the stress by eating more.)
June 30 - 163.2 (Much better day emotionally. I had a nice lunch out with a friend. 60 minute Peloton ride after work. Off to the trailer tonight as we are off tomorrow for Canada Day).
Great work everyone!
3 pounds down and a monthly average weight right in the middle of my maintenance range. Feels great!2
