    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 198 ( my 130th). Thanks again @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal this round again is to lose. We go on holiday in a week's time, so from 12th onwards it is doubtful I will be able to weigh (not lugging the scales on the 'plane!!), but I still intend logging as best I can and keeping up with the posts. 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.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    9/4 137.4 – yes, sodium flushed through! 14.11 miles walked, 2/3 exercise calories eaten back.
    9/5 137.4 - 10.66 miles walked, 60% exercise calories eaten back.
    9/6 137.4 – 11.39 miles walked, less than 20% exercise calories eaten back.
    9/7 137.4 – 5.02 miles squeezed in yesterday before hair appt, quick coffee with a friend I'd not seen since before xmas due to her health problems & then birthday lunch for DS, hence 355 calories over. I did have to guage calories of lunch, think I chose well; teriyaki salmon with rice, think I over guessed. Feeling & looking better in the mirror, obviously the scale doesn't agree!
    9/8 138 – 8.83 miles walked & an hour yoga class – first time since May!!! Half of exercise calories eaten back.
    9/9 138 – no structured walking; day with little DGC. RIP your Majesty.

    09/06 -196.8- (Trend weight 198.9)

    09/07 -196.2- (Trend weight 198.7)

    09/08 -197.6- (Trend weight 198.6) Up from travel and lack of movement. I actually did very well during the travel meal. I even stopped at a roadside park and walked for about 15 minutes on a walking path around a creek after eating very reasonable choices in very nice controlled quantities. However, I ate 3 meals yesterday instead of two, nonetheless. It still put me over calorie and carb limits.

    09/09 -197.8- (Trend weight 198.5) Weigh in is about 2.5 hours earlier than usual. Up a tad. Could be that but I did have an extra snack last night due to true hunger. I didn’t choose my daytime food very wisely even if it was within my calorie and carb limit. That snack put me over. I’m up early for travel today. May the beautiful Queen Rest in Peace. She will be missed.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    Previous days' comments behind spoiler.
    Spoiler
    9/4-133.8. Not surprised to see a gain. We had sushi and dim sum takeout last night for our anniversary. I did go overboard but most of the gain is probably attributable to salt and TOM’s unexpected arrival. I’ll get back in the saddle today.
    9/5 - 130.2 Phew, glad to see the water loss today even though I was confident I couldn’t have done that much damage in a day. DH and I are still testing positive for covid on Day 8. The kids aren’t but we just presumed they were positive anyway. They still have symptoms, so deciding whether or not they can go back to daycare is tough. Selfishly, I would rather send them, but if I were a parent of another child in the daycare I would want them to stay home until the sniffles are gone. Ah the mental gymnastics required by parenting through a pandemic I would rather not have experienced. Ugh. Anyway I just finished up a good Peloton ride and am going to try to relax with the family for the rest of the day. Have a good holiday, to whom it applies!
    9/6 - 130.2. I am determined to see the 120s this week! Turns out the kids aren’t even allowed at daycare until 10 days after symptoms onset, so my littlest is home until at least Thursday and the 3 year old is home for the rest of the week. Also my husband and I are not allowed in the building until we test negative, so I’m not sure how that would work anyway. Covid sucks.
    9/7 - 130.2 AGAIN. Ah well, it'll catch up with me I'm sure. I made a really salty stir fry last night. I ended up going for a jog last night after my youngest's bedtime because I was grumpy and didn't get a chance to work out yesterday between work and childcare. I'm hoping we can find more balance, or at least more zen, today as we try to manage this.
    9/8 - 130.4. Maybe I won’t see the 120s this week after all. I had salty leftovers last night so I’m hoping I can up my water and see better results. But if I’m being honest with myself I am not making the best food choices. This week has been so hard. I know a lot of people have it a lot worse but I’ve certainly been throwing myself a little pity party. We did have a better day at home yesterday, but then my youngest was up every hour from 10 to 3 last night then awake for the day at 6:15. I'm really not sure what's going on with him.
    9/9 - 131.6. Kinda perplexed by this other than the salty foods I’ve been cooking this week. Very weird because I weighed the same when I stepped on the scale last night. Ah well, gotta ride the fluctuations.

    9/09 - 155.7 - No hugs, it's sodium. BF's phone keeps having issues with charging his phone so we took a lunch break trip into town to the wireless store. It's under warranty so he's getting a new phone shipped to him and the old one will be shipped back. We were both quite hungry and he wanted sushi something terrible so we got lunch on the road. I tried my best to keep food in check having a lovely Chinese lunch filled with sodium, but there's only so much that can be done. I made sure to have my miso soup first, then ate my broccoli before anything else on the plate to help fill me up with the good stuff first. Neither of us could decide on dinner so the kid said pizza and pizza it was. The universe decided I'm waking up at 615 this morning and I stayed in bed until 7 then knocked out a 20 minute complete workout (10 min workout with warmup and cooldown included). I will tell you I absolutely was NOT wanting to do a workout this morning but I was awake and I need to be consistent since tomorrow and Sunday I likely won't get one in. Travel is booked for work. No workout Monday (19th) as I'll be on a plane early and direct to work from the airport. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday I have the fitness center at the hotel. No rower, but there's weights, treadmills, pelotons, and stair steppers so I can figure something out. Come back late Thursday (22nd. Land at about 915pm and drive an hour and half to two hours depending on any traffic/night construction) so doubtful I'll want to wake up early enough Friday to get a workout in before BF gets up for work (my rower is next to his desk and across room from my desk and 8am is quiet time for meetings). It'll be my Friday off, too, so I'm really not likely to want to. I'll see about walking around the airport to get steps in and such at the very least. Will spend the next week or so coming up with some workout plans to get me through without a rower. Today is my day off. Dentist at 11am to get fitted for my night guard/retainer, post office to send SD a gift I got her, and grocery shopping while in that town since I prefer that HEB to my town's. Unsure plans this weekend, guess it depends on whether Fam is all recovered from strep throat (BF and I dodged that bullet, thankfully). Have a great weekend everyone!

    9/06 - Long weekend. We did end up feeling well enough to help Fam with some house remodel work (demolition stuff). Because of all the sweat and muscle soreness, I didn't bother to weigh in. Unfortunately FamHubs ended up going home early yesterday and later had a fever. FamWife had that Saturday so we are thinking she gave it to him just by proximity, similar to BF giving it to me. Spent the rest of the evening at home relaxing and drinking plenty of water. I was off yesterday for holiday and it's my Friday off this week so only 3 days requiring me to be up early. I'm going to see how I feel come Friday whether I want to go ahead and wake up for a workout. Today will be an easy 20 minute recovery row to gauge how I feel after a week of no workouts and to ease back into movement. Back to logging and plenty of water! And plenty of catching up on posts to do, as well!
    9/07 - Scale teased me this morning by flashing 154.9 a few times before settling on this. Food was wonderful, I managed to keep it balanced pretty well. Under goal by 100 calories and didn't eat back the "300" calories I supposedly burned extra. I don't think I actually burn that much extra in a day so I'm just aiming for goal calories anyway. 96oz water down the hatch yesterday so back into that groove of things. Challenge to get up again this morning and hit my 15 min snooze. I used up almost all that snooze time, too, when I usually only use about 5 minutes of it before I manage to get up. Oof. A week of sleeping in really undid some of my routine. Yesterday's rowing was only 10 minutes, not the 20 I thought I'd do. It was a challenge and I took it easy on myself as my first row after recovering from a nasty cold. Today I have a 30 minute full workout queued up. The workout itself is 20 minutes, but it includes a row-focused warmup and cooldown so I'm still getting in extra reps to get back into the swing of things with morning workouts. If I can manage to convince my sleepy brain, I'm going to try to wake up early for a workout Friday just to really solidify the routine back in my life. Alright, I've procrastinated long enough, time to get some work in.
    9/08 - BF made chicken enchiladas for dinner. With plenty of cheese. I ate about 87 calories over goal but had 206 exercise calories in the bank for the day. I'm guessing the cheese is what did the scale in this morning as everything else seemed right on track. I did wake up extra sore this morning from yesterday's workout of choice (I admit, I was super ambitious and I almost quit about 10 times during it. Way harder than I expected). Maybe some DOMS water weight as well? Today I'll take it a little easier with a 10 minute workout and some extra stretching (maybe a quick morning yoga?) Unsure dinner for tonight but I have lunch lined up and tracked already leaving plenty of room for dinner and maybe a small late breakfast if I need it.

    9/04 - 179
    Jeez, I’m 40 pounds heavier than I was 4 years ago and just can’t seem to get a grip on myself. I obviously need a new approach. I know what I need to know about nutrition. I don’t know why I’m sabotaging myself. Sigh.

    9/05 - 179.8
    Yikes. But I know why.

    9/06 - 178.8
    Whew. Back on track.

    9/07 - 178
    Ok, the gain is coming back off. I’m managing my macros, aiming for lower fat/higher protein and complex carbs than I’ve been eating over the summer. I’m trying to get to the levels recommended by GenoPalate, based on my DNA, to see if it really does make a difference. Also trying very hard to keep my calories considerably lower for a while. Basically, I need to stop kidding myself.

    9/08 - 178
    Yesterday was another good day, calories & macros right on target. Yay!

    9/09 - 177.6
    Funny, but dropping the regained couple of pounds makes me feel lighter, proving that every little bit helps!

    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.

    9/4 120.5 I got together with my “old” gal pals yesterday. Charcuterie board, “Buffalo” nuts and toffee nuts as well as a couple of adult beverages. I had “made” the nuts and discovered that a lot of the Buffalo seasoning was in the box so was ate some of that after I got home and drank lots of water. Perhaps I have retained some H2O but still no TMI. Maybe the excess water will help. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Not concerned
    9/5 120.5 Great Greek yesterday and left overs today. DH surgery tomorrow. Still no TMI - stress related? Finally TMI long after weighing.
    9/6 120.0 Leaving in 30 minutes to take DH for shoulder replacement.
    9/7 120.5 Surgery went well. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Now to survive the recovery! heehee **Headache, upset stomach and much TMI - sure this is stress related
    9/8 119.5 DH is home in one piece. He’s in pain and feels “miserable.” I think I slept well last night. Maybe I didn’t sleep well, I can’t stop yawning.
    9/9 119.5 Yesterday was pretty much a protein day.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    9/4: 134.9 - Holding steady. Finally finished most of the leftovers from our dinner party on Tuesday. Finally seeing some daylight in the refrigerator and freezer. Got my workout in, but spent most of the day doing sourdough-related prep (2 Tartine Country Loaves, 2 cranberry-walnut loaves, 2 ciabatta loaves, 4 balls of pizza dough). Most of those will go home with my daughter and her boyfriend or into the freezer.
    9/5: 133.4 - Yesterday was a bit of an odd day. Lots of baking (in the heat) and then daughter requested a spring roll salad that I had made before and a blueberry pie since she had 7 pounds of blueberries she was bringing from Washington. Added those two things (plus the ice cream to go on top of the pie) to my diary and realized that almost all my calories for the day were going to into that one meal. Decided the high-octane calories from the Trader Joe’s Vanilla ice cream wasn’t worth it and went and got a “light” version. Also decided that probably should do an OMAD day and it worked out pretty well. This is why it is important to track and pre-track.
    9/6: 132.4 - Got my jazzercise in very early in the day while we could still have the window’s open. Temperatures hit 108F in our area, which is waaaaay above normal for us. Luckily we have air conditioning and I succumbed to turn it on around 4pm. We have 4 more scorching days forecasted, so unfortunately the AC will be on more than it has ever been (we at most turn it on once or twice a summer). Tried to keep all this in mind with my eating and had a heavier salad for lunch (leftover spring roll salad with peanut sauce) and a light salad for dinner. Pre-planned for the the leftover blueberry pie and ice cream so stayed under calories.
    9/7: 131.4 - After having tracked for just over a year now, sometimes I still don’t understand how this all works. Could it be this excessive heat we’re having that is sapping up all the water weight? I feel like I’m hydrating enough, but who knows. I guess we’ll see when (hopefully) this heat wave breaks in a couple of days.
    9/8: 131.4 - Another high heat day, so got my workouts done early. The rest of the day was spent hydrating and trying to stay cool.
    9/9: 132.9 - The scale taketh, the scale giveth. Another excessive heat day. Got my workouts in before noon but it was still hot. Hopefully today is the last day. Ate fairly well but mostly stayed indoors and sat around all day.

    9/6 / 165.6 / Back on the road today after a beautiful time in Manitoba celebrating my Aunt's wedding. As you can see my weight crept up while I was here as I had 3 back to back indulgent days. I'm glad to see it's slowly coming down again. We leave tomorrow to head west to Vancouver for my husband's bike race so I am still facing about 10 more days of vacation non-routine days. Finding ways to stay active will be key.
    9/7 / 165.2 / We are heading west today as far as Kamloops, BC. Got a later start on the road as my husband had to meet his bike mechanic this morning for the final tune up before his Gran Fondo. We ate at a diner on the road and I chose something heavier than normal.
    9/8 / 167 / On the road to Vancouver today. Beautiful part of the country to drive through. Before we left we had a very short time to check out some of Kamloops. Very cool place. When we get in we are going to find a bar to watch the Bills game at.
    9/9 / 168.6 / Low day of movement yesterday and we ate two meals but they were both large. Plus desserts! Having a blast. I'm so happy in Vancouver - it's one of my favorite cities. We are heading out to explore in a bit but it will be a shorter day, in bed by 8 as my husband's bike race starts at 6 a.m. tomorrow.
