64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 195 ( my 127th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

Goal this round again is to lose. I need to continue to resist the Commonwealth Games Volunteer goodies to keep the movement downwards (3 shifts out of 10 left to do !! ) No binges, keep within calories & macros.

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.

ROUND 194
SW: 179.2

7/26: 179.2 puffy leg this morning. that's not new, and i think it may have reduced a little since yesterday. salt intake was high yesterday, i'll have to watch that. calories and macros were great! so many things to stay focused on.

7/27: 177.2 keeping up with the water is helping. leg is practically back to normal, just a little puff around the ankle. calories and macros were on point again, but sadly sodium was still a little high.

7/28: 175.8 i think all the water weight is gone... the rest is probably the actual weight i gained. i usually eat a slice of white bread w/peanut butter as a snack for the last thing i eat. it carries me through 'til breakfast. i messed up last night and missed my snack. ended up eating PB bread at 2am today, so calories will be over today, and were under yesterday.

7/29: 175.8 i'm actually quite happy to see this weight. my calories were excessive yesterday (as expected). I was sure to get my PB bread BEFORE going to bed last night. i will probably see a weight gain later in the week for my mess up.

7/30: 174.8 look at that! it says i'm down a pound. did really good with calories yesterday, macros were off. oh well, keep on moving in the right direction.

7/31: 173.4 my scale is just being deceitful again. i'll keep logging what it's spewing out, but don't believe a word of it.

8/1: 172.6

8/2: 172.2 not feeling my best this morning, so expecting a gain over the next few days. eating foods that will settle in my belly vs. counting calories. drinking ginger ale vs. water. got a little worried about covid since i just got back from the cruise, but took the rapid test, and got negative results. so, all i have to worry about will be added calories to my diet.

8/3: 172.8

8/4: 172.4 back to the diet (sort of). the man wants cheese burgers. i bought the ground beef, and handed it over to him. he said he made 6oz. patties for freezer and we each get a 5oz patty today. cheese burgers sound great, but oooh the calories. i took my burger and smooshed it very thin with 1 piece of cheese. once cooked, i cut the burger in half and placed the other half on italian bread w/mustard. i'll have the other half tomorrow. i'll be over my allotted calories for weight loss, but still below my maintenance calories.

8/6: 171.8 weight is "pre" everything. i usually weigh in after i've had coffee and water. haven't had coffee or water yet this morning, so i'm figuring i'm at least a solid 172 lbs.

8/6: 217
/ not much/ This big bump up in weight is not as bad as it looks since I round to the nearest whole number. And, it is not without reason. TMI, TMF (food), TMS (salt), TMD (drink).

8/8: 219
/walking/ It hurts to report this number, but this is why I am here, so I can own up to my compulsive behavior. DW made a belated Birthday Blueberry Pie. (my preference in lieu of BD cake) Lots of reunion/houseguest food + leftovers. I probably ate a whole fried chicken over the course of two days.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/4 – 134.4 Ta Da! I’ve lost 20 lbs. since the end of March. 10 more to go. This was a low blip so it will probably go back up tomorrow. But still happy. I started a day early on this thread because …
8/5
8/6 – 135.4 Went way over in calories. I had wine with dinner and then got into the Triscuits. No doubt that I want to eat more when I have 2 glasses of wine. Onward and downward.
8/7
8/8 – 134.4 Back down to my 20 lbs off. I’ve been bouncing around within 3 lbs for a while. Oddly my thighs and behind seem to have shrunk a little bit in the last week or so. Maybe I just noticed?

8/08 - 157.6 - Expected as I traveled all day Saturday. Water was low (try to stop as little as possible and having to go every 10 minutes means I'd NEVER make it home) and food was on the road. I tried to eat a little healthier like Subway instead of greasy pizza, but still not great. Yesterday wasn't great with food but I did get over 100oz water which hopefully means tomorrow the water weight will be gone. No workout this morning as BF told me he was making roast today and needed potatoes, carrots, and celery at about 9:15pm after the store would've been closed by the time I got there. So this morning it opened at 6 and I got there and back in time for work. Really missed my grocery shopping buddy (SD) though. Will have to squeeze some activity in later today. Wanted to go for a walk with pup last night but BF wanted to watch a movie with me and there were storms in the area (didn't hit us, but if I had walked, they would've. Murphy's Law loves me). Maybe I'll try for that tonight. House is incredibly quiet without the kids and it's weird. I sure do miss them. Only upside is that I don't have any distractions and I can get my never-ending to-do list done. Spending time with them definitely took priority over a good chunk of that list and I'm only mad about it because it means I have no excuses to do the mundane things now haha!

Previous Day's Comments

8/05 - Despite the big farewell dinner for the kids with Fam, I've maintained! Whoohoo!!!! I was worried I'd be back near 158 again so this is a really pleasant surprise. Did get a 20 min walk in with SD and pup once everyone left and the house was put back to normal last night. No workout this morning as SD wanted a chai from the local tea place and the only opportunity I have today to get it is during my workout time when they first open. I'm off earlier as it's only an 8 hour day so hopefully I can fit some extra activity in during that extra hour I have. Tomorrow we drive all day so I'll see about weighing in, though likely not posting as I'll be driving to Oklahoma while BF drives back and reading/writing/typing always gets me carsick. Not much else to report on here. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and best of luck this round!

Day/Weight/Comment
08/04 …..200.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
08/05 -200.2- (Trend weight 201.2)

08/06 -198.8- (Trend weight 201.0)

08/07 -198.2- (Trend weight 200.7) Glucose has remained very high these past few days (since surgery). Logging every bite the last few so I know I’m not missing anything and weight is dropping. Why so high? I don’t get it! The only change is the lack of exercise until I am allowed. But I am moving pretty steady with simple housecleaning, stretches etc. Baffled!


08/08 -196.4- (Trend weight 200.3) A very nice drop after a very good day. I’ve been working pretty hard to make my scratch-off chart listed below a little more honest after I drifted back up into the 200’s. Travel today and tomorrow, both involving food but I will try to be reasonable. I’m officially allowed more movement starting tomorrow, but I did sneak on the exercise bike for about 16 minutes last night. It must have pushed the scale.

08/09 -xxxxx- (Trend weight xxxxx)

08/12 -xxxxx- (Trend weight xxxxx)

08/13 -xxxxx- (Trend weight xxxxx)

8/5 / 165.8 / Today after work my husband and I go up to the lake.. it's been a couple weekends since we've been there so we'll have grass cutting chores. Lots of relaxing otherwise!
8/6 / 164.6 / Back to my maintenance range. Woo hoo! Yesterday I did a 30 minute Peloton ride and got my 10,000 steps. We have a celebratory dinner tonight at the lake for a friend who has been successfully kicking cancer's butt for a year now.
8/7 / 165.8 / Didn't get many steps yesterday - went out for one walk but mostly ended up relaxing at our trailer. My husband cooked the celebratory meal for our friends.
8/8 / 167 / Did walking, yoga, and strength for exercise yesterday. Our friends had us over for homemade pizza.

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.

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

In hindsight, mine are made in 1c corn tortillas and look different from his. I should have put some jalapeños in mine! Well, there are leftovers for today. DGD#2 arrives this evening. Eating out both tomorrow and Monday. A show tomorrow night and she gets to meet her new cousin who is 6 weeks old today.

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!

8/8 M - 143 - It's going the wrong way again. We had a guest this weekend and I always find it hard to stay on track in that situation. We eat out more, drink more. I did have some discipline, but not enough. We have guests coming this next weekend too. Does anyone have advice? How do I stick to my guns with my calorie goals when it's harder to make and stick to a plan?

8/05 - 149 - We have no parties this weekend, so I should be able to stay on track.
8/06 - 148.5 - We had pizza last night so I expected a carb and sodium bump. I may see it tomorrow, but I'll keep tracking today.
8/07 - 149 - We went to the local zoo this morning and had a nice walk. We got another membership this year because it's a nice way to get a long walk in.

Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

Goals for this round:

1. Generally, show some semblance of discipline. Exercise more. Eat less.
2. Major Goal this round is to make even a little bit of progress toward my maintenance range.
3. Resist mindless shoveling of food into my cake hole! This is a big one.

/walking/ Family reunion this Saturday night. Sister In-law and DH with us over the weekend. They always bring some nutrition damaging store bought snack or treat. Going to try to think twice before damage is done.


8/6: 217
/ not much/ This big bump up in weight is not as bad as it looks since I round to the nearest whole number. And, it is not without reason. TMI, TMF (food), TMS (salt), TMD (drink).

8/7: 217
/ big bike ride (for me), mowed grass /

8/8: 219
/walking/ It hurts to report this number, but this is why I am here, so I can own up to my compulsive behavior. DW made a belated Birthday Blueberry Pie. (my preference in lieu of BD cake) Lots of reunion/houseguest food + leftovers. I probably ate a whole fried chicken over the course of two days.

8/9: 219
/walking/ Still recovering from the weekend obviously. I don’t like myself very much right now, but I will get over it. 😊

As a start, I want to eliminate processed sugar and severely reduce other carbs from the diet. (except for the last piece of blueberry pie.) Time to set a couple world records (at least personal bests) for low carb consumption.

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.

7/26: 179.2 puffy leg this morning. that's not new, and i think it may have reduced a little since yesterday. salt intake was high yesterday, i'll have to watch that. calories and macros were great! so many things to stay focused on.

7/27: 177.2 keeping up with the water is helping. leg is practically back to normal, just a little puff around the ankle. calories and macros were on point again, but sadly sodium was still a little high.

7/28: 175.8 i think all the water weight is gone... the rest is probably the actual weight i gained. i usually eat a slice of white bread w/peanut butter as a snack for the last thing i eat. it carries me through 'til breakfast. i messed up last night and missed my snack. ended up eating PB bread at 2am today, so calories will be over today, and were under yesterday.

7/29: 175.8 i'm actually quite happy to see this weight. my calories were excessive yesterday (as expected). I was sure to get my PB bread BEFORE going to bed last night. i will probably see a weight gain later in the week for my mess up.

7/30: 174.8 look at that! it says i'm down a pound. did really good with calories yesterday, macros were off. oh well, keep on moving in the right direction.

7/31: 173.4 my scale is just being deceitful again. i'll keep logging what it's spewing out, but don't believe a word of it.

8/1: 172.6

8/2: 172.2 not feeling my best this morning, so expecting a gain over the next few days. eating foods that will settle in my belly vs. counting calories. drinking ginger ale vs. water. got a little worried about covid since i just got back from the cruise, but took the rapid test, and got negative results. so, all i have to worry about will be added calories to my diet.

8/3: 172.8

8/4: 172.4 back to the diet (sort of). the man wants cheese burgers. i bought the ground beef, and handed it over to him. he said he made 6oz. patties for freezer and we each get a 5oz patty today. cheese burgers sound great, but oooh the calories. i took my burger and smooshed it very thin with 1 piece of cheese. once cooked, i cut the burger in half and placed the other half on italian bread w/mustard. i'll have the other half tomorrow. i'll be over my allotted calories for weight loss, but still below my maintenance calories.

ROUND 195
SW: 172.4

Day/Weight/Comment

8/5: 172.4 not a bad place to start the challenge

8/6: 171.8 weight is "pre" everything. i usually weigh in after i've had coffee and water. haven't had coffee or water yet this morning, so i'm figuring i'm at least a solid 172 lbs.

8/7: 172.4

8/8: 171.8

8/9: 171.4 i am actually getting excited to see the 160's. maybe by round 197??? what an accomplishment that would be!
