64 yr young F, 5ft 4
Round 191 ( my 123rd). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round is just to lose, no binges,& keep within calories.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.

6/26 139.8 - 13.27 miles walked yesterday. 50% exercise calories eaten back, no binge!!
6/27 139.8 – 7 miles walked yesterday. We had a big family picnic, all my DSs. nearly all of our children & grand-children: 30 of us in all, myself the eldest & our 12 month old DGD the youngest. We try to meet up at least once per year, but this is the first time since January 2020 (mostly due to the pandemic !)
6/28 141.6 - 4 miles walked, no structured walking as precipitation each time I was not working. Chocolate monster over powered me !! Feeling bloated & fat, spare tyre is visibly inflated, need to get back under control.
6/29 139.2 – 4.78 miles walked, intended to do more, but had e-mail to advise Commonwealth Games volunteer uniform was being delivered & had to be home to accept, walk cut short to get back and wait in for it! It is a bit 'snug', I was 6lbs lighter back in October when measured up for it so now I have 29 days to lose a few pounds to make it more comfortable, going to use that as an incentive to do well over this and next 2 rounds. 8 calories over due to having to restrict planned walk.
6/30 138.8 – 8.68 miles walked, a good food day, casual work finished now until November so walking should be increasing back to normal now which will help. 2/3 exercise calories eaten back.
7/1. 139.2 - 8.56 miles walked, all pushing 2 year old DGS in buggy. Good food choices, but all but 26 of exercise calories eaten back.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 / 167.8 / Yesterday I got my exercise by walking around our campground. The weather was pretty decent for most of the day. Stayed on track with my food and got a decent amount of water and the big post vacation whoosh I was expecting occurred this morning. I still have a ways to go but the worst of the bulk is gone. Today we take our friends on our boat and then head home to get ready to go back to work in the morning.
6/27 / 165.2 / Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps by walking to and from the boat while we were at the lake, and then with a final walk before bed with my husband and dog. The weather was beautiful and I had another very good day. Feeling much better as the vacation bloat clears away.
6/28 / 163.6 / Back down to my maintenance range and feeling great. Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps and did my long ride on the Peloton (60 minutes). Work was busy getting back into the swing of things and we were plagued with IT issues. Into the office today!
6/29 / 162 / Today didn't go well. I bickered with my husband before work about something trivial, and then work itself felt like a disaster. I didn't get my lunch walk (first time since I've been back, I think) and it just kept going downhill. Doesn't help when I recognize my attitude isn't helping but I can't pull out of the funk. Maybe one of the worst headspace days I've had in a while as my work stress is high and I'm letting it creep into other areas. Supposed to talk on the phone with a friend tonight so I think I'll combine that with a walk as I'm currently wasting my time I should be on the bike.
6/30 / 163.2 / Better day today. Did a 60 min Peloton ride. We are at the trailer now for three nights.

6/29: 251.2 – it is great to see the loss today as I struggled very hard to stay on plan yesterday. I am finding it more and more difficult to plan and cook my meals to plan. I want to give in and get something quick, easy and very bad for me. Yesterday was a bad day from the emotional point of view but I did manage to stay on plan although my calories were somewhat higher than normal, but still OK. I was doing fine without grains (bread, pasta, rice, corn etc.), but I am now (over a month in) starting to really miss them on bad days like yesterday. Luckily, I don’t really have anything in the house so it is harder to give in to cravings! I hope that today will be better
6/30: 251.0 – Staying on plan was easier yesterday. But I am struggling with doing all that prepping and cooking of meals. Planning far enough ahead that I know what I am going to eat is difficult. But if I don’t do that, I will make poor decisions about meals. But I am still hanging in there.
7/1: 251.0 – Still the same! Doing Ok but still struggling some with all the meal prep etc.

@enlightenme3 – I need to do that. I am not retired yet, but I have been working from home since COVID started and I am not sure that I will be going back to the office. I have a zillion pairs of black pants that I will probably never wear!
@deepwoodslady – I couldn’t breath etc about 6 years ago and was diagnosed with a heart issue or two. I did my first nuclear stress test earlier this year. I ended up having to get a pacemaker/defibrillator implanted. I was devastated at the time that I had so much going on/wrong with me. I am now MUCH better. With medication and the pacemaker/defibrillator my heart has really recovered, and I feel 100% better. Good luck with your results. Remember whatever they are, it is not the end of the world. Just a change in the world you live in.8 -
Okay I’m going to try this again. I can’t seem to be consistent.

SW: ?6/24 176.6 back from vacation. was i stressing over gaining weight so i didn't eat as much, or was i not stress eating? kinda like that old tootsie pop commercial, "the world may never know".
6/25 175.8 don't believe everything you see. it HAS to be my scale messing with me again because everyone knows i don't lose almost a pound overnight. someday i will invest in a better scale. until then....i'm enjoying the tiny fibs it tells me every once in a while.
ROUND 191
SW: 174.4
Day/Weight/Comment
6/26: 174.4 i will keep accepting these lower weights my scale is spitting out, just as i will accept the higher ones when it decides to tell the truth. maybe it's all my fault, and i should change the batteries? I forgot to mention my failures that have occurred since vacation. i am ashamed to say i have had a set back in my quitting smoking. i know that i will have to get that under control as well as my eating habits. i have also failed in my walking. i will need to get motivated and include that also. i have emotional stress in my life right now, which i see an end to in the future but that will take a few months. my weeks vacation visiting with family was nothing but smiles and laughter. driving home my failures began, and i realized i must do something besides diet and exercise for myself. i will continue to recognize my failures, but i will not beat myself up over them. a slow and steady path in the right direction is what i have chosen.
6/27: 174.4 i looked up how many calories i should be eating if i am sedentary and oh lordy lordy they're really trying to starve people! i did my check in yesterday and "whoop whoop" my neck is 1/2 in thinner! wow! was that a good feeling! i still haven't gotten back to my walks outside. i did spend 3 hours walking in a circle around my livingroom yesterday, and i think i am going to start calling the time i struggle with the dog to take her medicine "my cardio workout".
6/28: 174.8 OK scale... i must weigh 174.(something). my calories were good, my macros were good. my exercise was non-existant. aaarrrgggh, i thought getting back to exercising would be easier than this.
6/29: 174 changed the batteries in my scale, and my weight remained about the same. i'm owing my scale an apology now for accusing it of lying to me. my calorie intake was super low yesterday, i wasn't feeling very hungry. maybe it was because of the migraine lurking to attack me last night, but it's almost noon time today and i still have no appetite. i was thinking earlier how great this group is. no one is judgmental and everyone so supportive. it's excellent therapy without the giant price tag.
6/30: 173.6 another day of too low intake, but again great macros. i forced myself to go for my walk yesterday. 1.9mi @3mph. when i got home i was questioning my sanity. 2 weeks without walking, last night felt like a nightmare, but i'm sure it'll get better again. i am trying to do my walks 3-4 times a week.
7/: 172.4 calorie intake was at "sustain" level, so i'm shocked to see this loss. macros pretty good.

6/27 176.6. Back to work! I really need to just not take the foods I’ve been taking on trips with Dad. Gotta find some things he likes that I can control my consumption of.
6/28 175.8 Got in a nice walk yesterday. Headed back in the right direction, albeit slowly. Gotta start making choices that are best for my body again and be consistent about it.
6/29 175.4 Lots of steps yesterday and did a good job managing food intake.
6/30 176 Dinner out at a Mediterranean restaurant. Feeling really bloated. Taking healthy lunch to work and have a Skinnytaste recipe ready for the crockpot for dinner. Hoping for a drop tomorrow.
7/1 175.4 Not a great round, but I’m not giving up. Not sure I'll get back to my last round end weight, but I have to try. No scales the next two mornings. Taking the granddaughter camping with her great-granddad. Then bringing him home with me for next week. Cookout on Monday, but I can manage that part. It's the camping food that I struggle with. I am taking leftovers from last night's Skinnytaste meal for tonight, so that meal will be fine. Fingers crossed for the weekend.

I'm in for my second round! I didn't do that great the previous round (gained almost 2 pounds), but I have hope for the next 10! These challenges are inspiring and helpful for holding myself accountable.
- 6/26 Sunday: 147.8
- 6/27 Monday: 147.2 - Planned meals and stuck to it yesterday and AF (planned alcohol free day)
- 6/28 Tuesday: 145.6 - AF - Yesterday stuck to meal plan, Peloton bike workout 30 minutes, and AF day (alcohol free). Have a meal plan for today. Two Blue Apron meals arrive today.
- 6/29 Wednesday: 145 - AF - YAY! I didn't get a workout in yesterday because I crashed on the sofa after work for a long nap but the good news is that I stuck close to my planned meals (went over a bit). I'm traveling for a few days starting today, so this will be a challenge for me. My pattern is to gain weight and go off plan when traveling.
- 6/30 Thursday: ??? - Not only am I traveling, the weekend is coming up and today I was 500+ calories over goal but got in a hard 45-minute Peloton bike workout. I'll be back home on Saturday. My goal is to maintain my weight from Wednesday over the weekend.

/nothing/ Time to buckle down before July. I am eating away from home for four out of the five weekends in July, and the other one is a holiday weekend.
6/28: 216
/some “nominal” dumbbell work/ I lost a pound even though lunch and supper were both restaurant meals. I have some major work to do if I plan to lower my 10-day average.
6/29: 216
/yoga and spinning/ I would have thought a pound or two would have sweated off. I did eat back a couple hundred exercise calories….
6/30: 216
/grass mowing/ My current habit of rounding to the nearest whole number hides a bit of progress. But, let’s face it, when my goal is over ten pounds away… whole numbers tell the story just fine.
On another note, I don’t think eating back my exercise calories is serving me well. Neither is my weakness for salty food.

/x/ Spontaneous dinner out last night at a BBQ place with DW and her cousin. Her cousin is in town to join her for a piano performance at her mom’s nursing home. It will be a nice program. They play four-handed pieces, which are fun.

~ Happy to see it back down again! But… I’m realistically preparing to go right back up. This weekend will be a triple threat for me. Number#1: It’s a weekend; #2: I’ll already have started my week long vacation with my Dad and brothers families up in SC; then of course Number#3: 4th of July festivities will be right on the day where I tend to get back on track; I’ll try to come up with a plan but there so hard to follow sometimes!

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment
6/26 - 179.6
I know half a pound isn’t significant, but still….Ever since the doctor’s dietitian put me on that very restrictive elimination diet 4 years ago to look for sensitivities (I have none), I find it harder than it’s ever been in my life to lose weight, and oh so easy to gain. I should have known better, but the quick weight loss then was so gratifying I didn’t question it. They — especially the dietician —should have known better for sure! Ok, just letting off steam, because it’s so frustrating to find it so hard to lose when I’m sticking to my food goals. No hugs needed, I’m just venting, and I’ll keep sticking to it. Have a lovely Sunday!
6/27 - 180
Ok, whatever. I did have some rhubarb ginger crisp last night, but my overall calories were fine. I made my 26th different weekly soup yesterday—West African Peanut Soup with chicken. Really good! This soup challenge has been a lot of fun. Now to find 26 more different soups! 🍵
6/28 - 179.8
Nothing much to report! 😁
6/29 - 181.2
Whaaaa??? This makes no sense, unless I’m waterlogged. I mean, it has to be water—I didn’t gain a pound and a half overnight. Calories were fine, though fat was a bit high, and I was on my feet at dog training for 5 hours, so not exactly sedentary. I don’t get it. I thought about fibbing to you guys, but what’s the point of that? Anyway, I’m disgusted. Hoping it falls back off.
6/30 - 179.6
That’s better. And I was so glum yesterday I forget to mention Tuesday was my pup Rory’s birthday! He’s a year old now, and to celebrate, he passed his AKC Temperment and Advanced Canine Good Citizen tests and his Therapy Dog test on Tuesday, the first day he was eligible. Here he is looking all grown up.
7/01 - 180.2
🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends! My dad was born in Alberta and my mom and her family immigrated to Alberta from Scotland when she was a kid; my siblings were born there, and I am eligible for Canadian citizenship by birth. Had I known that when I was younger, I would have applied. Still might! 🇨🇦

@RockinRobyn672 good luck with that! I'm visiting my daughter for the weekend and every time we visit I'm up 3-4 lbs just from sodium, carbs and travel 😕 Takes me the whole following week to get back to normal. 😔 Going to try real hard this weekend though! 🤞5

SW: 211.1
Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 - 211.1 - This started out as a good day, but then I took my son to the mall. That means we had to get a Cinnabon. Then we got home and watched the Stanley Cup playoffs (GO AVS!!!). I had one too many beers. If I would have had one less beer and no cinnabon, I would have stayed in my calorie range. Time to start being more mindful and move forward.
6/27 - 211.5 (+.4) - I made good food choices while I was at work, but once I get home that all goes out the window. I decide to have a couple of beers and snack until dinner is ready. I think I need to up my protein during the day so I'm not starving when I get home.
6/28 - 211.4 (-.1)
6/29 - 211.1 (-.3)
6/30 - 213.2 (+2.1) - A pretty good day. I actually hit my goal for water consumption and didn't have any adult beverages.

@quiltingjaine LOL, too funny! You are right! To clarify, I have a follow-up appt with cardiologist for results July 12th, but hospital said if doctor does not call me within 2 days with results, to call his office. So I suppose the 12th is just to go over treatment plan maybe? Anyway, I guess that was a true oxymoron lol.3 -

@deepwoodslady – I couldn’t breath etc about 6 years ago and was diagnosed with a heart issue or two. I did my first nuclear stress test earlier this year. I ended up having to get a pacemaker/defibrillator implanted. I was devastated at the time that I had so much going on/wrong with me. I am now MUCH better. With medication and the pacemaker/defibrillator my heart has really recovered, and I feel 100% better. Good luck with your results. Remember whatever they are, it is not the end of the world. Just a change in the world you live in.
@karilbrandt Thanks so much for sharing your information. I feel better knowing that with treatment, things may get much better for me. Your words have given me much comfort.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/25 …..203.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/26 …..202.8 ….. (Trend weight 204.0) I’m happy to start this round with a one pound drop. I carefully planned my meals and snacks yesterday, just not enough movement because it was so hot! Good luck to everyone this round. We’re in this together! Thanks Jaine for posting this and continuing to be an inspiration!
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. (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!
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 DNW] 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.
07/01 ……202.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0) It was a very emotionally disturbing day yesterday with my daughter. I definitely am out of whack today. No TMI, no sleep last night, and extra comfort food very late, right before bed. I feel like death warmed over today. I hope I can just relax later. Today is my son’s birthday who lives with me. I will take him on an outing on another day when I can feel better.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 228.4
6/27 228.4 Didn’t sleep at all well last night and I think I’m still getting rid of the sodium from an (amazing) Mexican meal Saturday night. Headed to the doctor for my annual physical today and for the first time in a long time I’m not dreading it. Welcome new friends!!
6/28 228.2 Much better sleep last night. Dr. was thrilled with the 30+ pound loss since last time I was in and is taking me off cholesterol meds to see if I can maintain progress without them. Exactly the outcome I was hoping for. Everything for today is planned and logged.
6/29 227.2 New recipe for dinner last night – chicken roll-ups with boursin cheese and basil. A definite keeper. Otherwise, everything for today is planned and logged.
6/30 227.2 Dinner got blown off course yesterday and fast food was the end result. With that in mind I’m glad to hold steady. Got to get back into my workout routine – that’s today’s goal.
7/1 226.4 Pretty big NSV this morning. I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror (which I usually try to avoid like the plague 😊) and I could SEE how much weight I’ve lost. I’m proud of myself. But I’m not done – I want to do more. This weekend will be tricky but I’m going to enjoy myself within reason and not deny myself.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 / 167.8 / Yesterday I got my exercise by walking around our campground. The weather was pretty decent for most of the day. Stayed on track with my food and got a decent amount of water and the big post vacation whoosh I was expecting occurred this morning. I still have a ways to go but the worst of the bulk is gone. Today we take our friends on our boat and then head home to get ready to go back to work in the morning.
6/27 / 165.2 / Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps by walking to and from the boat while we were at the lake, and then with a final walk before bed with my husband and dog. The weather was beautiful and I had another very good day. Feeling much better as the vacation bloat clears away.
6/28 / 163.6 / Back down to my maintenance range and feeling great. Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps and did my long ride on the Peloton (60 minutes). Work was busy getting back into the swing of things and we were plagued with IT issues. Into the office today!
6/29 / 162 / Today didn't go well. I bickered with my husband before work about something trivial, and then work itself felt like a disaster. I didn't get my lunch walk (first time since I've been back, I think) and it just kept going downhill. Doesn't help when I recognize my attitude isn't helping but I can't pull out of the funk. Maybe one of the worst headspace days I've had in a while as my work stress is high and I'm letting it creep into other areas. Supposed to talk on the phone with a friend tonight so I think I'll combine that with a walk as I'm currently wasting my time I should be on the bike.
6/30 / 163.2 / Better day today. Did a 60 min Peloton ride. We are at the trailer now for three nights.
7/1 / 163.4 / Canada Day today so I'm off work. Sun is shining. Hoping to get lots of movement and lots of relaxation.

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 almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

6/26 118.5 GKI 6.4
6/27 120.5 GKI 12.7 Can sum this up in 3 words - HOT HOMEMADE BREAD!!! 2 slices buttered and Greek Salad with steak. No TMI in a couple of days Why does bread/wheat taste so good and treat me so bad(ly)??? Not worried about this bump.
6/28 120.5 GKI 13.0 Gotta give the bread away!
6/29 119.5 GKI 13.1 DH has been having balance issues for a week and is waiting for a referral. He just called to find out the statues-in the past it has taken only a few days-he was just told it takes up to 2 weeks to be processed! Meanwhile, he doesn’t like anything or anyone and yada yada. . . Sorry, it’s getting old.
6/30 118.5 GKI 6.4 “Grumpy old man” and “getting grumpy old woman” had no eating plans in place. He ate the left over egg salad and I ate the leftover piece of rib eye. Around 5 or 6 we went to In-n-Out. I got the Double Double Protein style (no bun, wrapped in lettuce) with no spread (Russian dressing) added tomato and grilled onion as well as part of DH’s fresh onion. Cal over by almost 200, total carbs 9, protein and fat both over. This weekend involves stock car races (= possible junk food) and 4th of July community “picnic.” Life is good, we have to learn to roll with the punches. Or as I said some time back Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄♀️

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26: 133.2 - Well, I was over in calories yesterday but did drink a ton of water and got both my workouts in, Excellent sleep for once even though I went to bed quite late.
6/27: 132.7 - Ate pretty well - balanced macros. Need to get back to not eating after 8pm though. Good workout and a dog walk (not ours - it was fun!).
6/28: 132.9 - Got my normal workouts in although I was a little tired in the afternoon. Dinner was a little heavier than usual (or I ate a bit more). Good sleep.
6/29: 134.0 - Had two social events yesterday that derailed my eating. Normal workouts though.
6/30: 134.0 - Normal workouts and cleaning out my closet yesterday. I’m now 10 pairs of shoes lighter. :-) I figured high heels weren’t really something I was going to wear anymore now that I’m retired. I also realized that all my old work shoes and clothes were black, black, and more black. I’m excited to bring more color into my outerwear and shoes.
7/1: 132.9 - Happy first of July! Hard to believe I’ve been on this MFP journey for the last 10 months and for the most part have stuck to my workouts and eating plans. Even though we are focused on 10 days at a time here, it is certainly helpful to look at the long game (both backwards and forwards) especially on those days where you gain a pound or two.

Day, Weight, Comment
6/26: 158.2 - today is my “relaxed eating” day so I fully anticipate a gain on the scale tomorrow. I will take it because I feel great, I still tracked all of my food (a huge win for me), I still got some movement in, and I’m ready to jump into tomorrow!
6/27: 157.9 - feeling a little under the weather today, but pleasantly surprised at my weigh in this morning. I’m feeling extra hungry and a little headachy today but I had a good workout this morning so that definitely helped.
6/28: 156.9 - yesterday ended up being a great day! I was able to avoid a binge, I ate well within my calorie range, and had a good workout. I started this morning big with a workout but we have pizza every Tuesday night, so I generally expect a little gain on Wednesday mornings.
6/29: 156.9 - I stayed exactly the same as yesterday so I’m thrilled! Here’s to another day of tracking!
6/30: 155.8 - wow! Y’all today is a great day to have a great day! I am just feeling incredible this week! Tracking and exercise and water, oh my!
7/01: 154.8 - how is it already July?! I have a planned higher calorie day today so not expecting a loss tomorrow. I’ll still be tracking, and that’s always the goal for me!

- Jenn / UGW: ~130lbs. fit & toned
I like to dance in celebration of those who inspire me on this journey. Don’t be surprised if I ask you for a song to add to my workout playlist.

Weekend burn challenge continues today, bring on the exhaustion! Anticipate inflammation will cause weight to rise again before falling. See where this ride takes me.

"Persistence can change failure into extraordinary achievement.” - Matt Biondi
6/28 - 164.1 (-1.8) - Kids were too exhausted from a weekend helping on the farm so decided to jump ahead with work. NSV: No DOM’s (🤷♀️ maybe weight won’t shoot up afterall….). 💧182oz. 🥗 Under 💪293 👟7,431 ⛑+14 (301).
“If you stumble, make it part of the dance” - River Maria Urke
6/29 - 163.9 (-.2) - Well the scale hasn’t been telling me at all what I expected it to but I’ll take it! Long and exhausting day, I have some catching up to do. Focused on being conservative when logging my SUP time. 💧164 oz. 🥗 under 💪 661 👟4,259 but I’m certain my arms made up for it ⛑ +22 (278).

7/1 - 163.8 (+.6) - 💧160 oz. 🥗net under 💪598 👟10,663 ⛑ +29 (234). Rough night! Incredibly drowsy/groggy/grumpy today and avoiding caffeine. Expect meds/stress to cause more weight increase over next several days. Urgent virtual appointment in a bit (no sedated driving). All neighbors know me well, they are understanding and respectful of my condition…… guessing it’s the newbie’s on the block that kept shaking my windows with all the booming last night. Hoping my therapist can help prepare me for a friendly chat. Group meet tomorrow morning. It’s very likely I won’t get a work out in today.
