    @Lynn__W don’t get distressed by the bounce! You’ve got this!

    @JbeanR0212 Those stupid fireworks started about 3 weeks ago around us and will probably continue until AUGUST! So irritating! We are in a severe drought - less than 2” (yes, two INCHES) of rain in 2021 after no measurable precipitation for 240 days. I hope the house they burn down is their own!

    Round # 56 for me!

    6/28 361.2 6232
    6/29 360.0 :) 4021
    6/30 360.0 6423
    7/01 361.2 2058 – Well the end of the month (and quarter end) is over and the close was stressful, but I don’t see how I gained 3.8 pounds but I did. My steps were down some days, but my eating was ok, not clean but under calories. Oh well, I am not going to stress about it. Just going to keep on keeping on and work on eating cleaner and do more moving :)

    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.
    2nmriozz84rc.png
    In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
    r3o1lagrbd1i.png
    In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
    uzs2w5a7aw1h.png
    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!"

    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 Outpatient 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 gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and 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 every day. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Every day 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!! :smile: We have the power within us.

    Thanks @quiltingjaine my oldest (23) lives in AZ. We hung out around the Page area for the littles spring break and we’re shocked at how low Powell was! It’s been pretty dry in CO too, not much of a winter either so my lawn is struggling. Fireworks have been going off in the distance for several weeks here also but it’s the super close ones that I’m not expecting primarily that get me and last night was a doozy! They aren’t legal but I don’t really want to be THAT neighbor nor do I wish them any harm. I know they are just trying to have fun and assume they are oblivious to the way they affect some people/pets. I have a deal with my immediate neighbors, be safe & go crazy on the day but please don’t catch me off guard otherwise. I don’t want to report, advance notice is all I ask. I simply can’t be non-functioning (I practically am today) for several days nor would anyone want to be.

    @IsMollyReallyHungry hang in there & don’t beat yourself up. It’s probably all that stress you’ve been under with EOM and life in general. Cortisol is a weight loss plan’s worst enemy. Keep on keeping’ on. You’ve got this.

    17th round! Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.

    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.

    6/26 157.8 workout – 5.5 miles on treadmill in 84:00 @ 3% incline with 3 lb. weights.
    6/27 158.8 What!!! Stayed below my calorie goal yesterday. Maybe didn’t drink enough water. Should be a rest day from exercise today so I’m nervous to see the scale tomorrow morning.
    6/28 158.2 1 hour cardio/weight training class. Numbers from the heart rate monitor were way off so I’m sticking with the MFP estimate. Stayed below calorie goal. Getting close to the 65 goal for water.
    6/29 157.4 workout – 4.25 miles on treadmill in 64:00 @ 4% incline with 3 lb. weights.
    6/30 157.8 Met friends from out of town for lunch at a Mexican restaurant. Had too many glasses of wine! Had a very light dinner but still expect bad news on the scale tomorrow.
    7/1 158.4 was expecting this after the excellent lunch yesterday. Have a quiet Holiday weekend planned so will get back on track.

    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!

I don’t want to waste it so I might be gaining the next few days to finish the bottle while only drinking about 3/4 cup at a time. After this bottle of Keifer and some remaining Raw cheese, going to stop eating raw cheese and whole milk keifer until hitting weight loss goals.

    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.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    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.
    exercise.png
    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.
    7/2 139.8 – 7.93 miles walked. Calories 112 over.

    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – Covid is still out there despite lifting of practically all restrictions, take care, remain vigilant we're still in this together!

    58 YO Female. SW: 263 (5/26/2022)
    Round 191 SW: 253
    6/26: 252.6
    6/27: 253.2
    6/28: 252.2
    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.
    7/2: 251.2 – I am surprised that I didn’t go up more today. I had a not so good calorie consumption and more sodium than usual. This is unfortunate as today I am set to go out to lunch with a friend so I am pretty sure that my plan may suffer. I have been looking at the menu and trying to find something that isn’t as bad/off plan. There are a few things that I could/should order. Let’s hope that I stay strong and order one of those!

    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! 🇨🇦

    7/02 - 180.6
    Ackkk. I had my typical Friday night snack attack. I don’t know what gets into me on Friday nights. Oh, well. Off for a tracking session with the pup. Maybe that will burn off a little of it. Happy Saturday!

    6/26: 141.5, starting weight
    6/27: 141.7, I blame Red Robin 🍔
    6/28: 141.7
    6/29: 142.0, ok, I'm going the wrong way here and a long holiday weekend at my DD's won't help. Perhaps I should wait for round #192 :/
    6/30: 141.0 That's better, the challenge will be to keep it off over the long weekend while travelling
    7/01: 141.0 holding steady, will be away from a ⚖️ for the weekend, hoping travelling doesn't do TOO much damage. 🤞
    7/02: DNW, no scale access for a couple of days

    @IsMollyReallyHungry I’m so happy you reread my little insights. I have to say that I think I’m on the rising side of the 🌊 wave with multiple events this weekend. I think I’ll try to fast sometime next week. I wish I was able to TRULY FAST!
    @JbeanR0212 Jenn, I hope you feel better today. Did I know you’re in CO? We moved to the Denver area in 1973 and to Cañon City in 1976. I retired from CDOC in 2002. My parents were amazed at how dry the “high desert” was.
