We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Donβt stay away, stay accountable. We donβt 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 isnβt sustainable. Iβve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. Itβs a LIFESTYLE.

10/15 120.0 And this is what happens when I DONβT eat wheat! Two days of mostly carnivore eating after ONE SUPER HIGH CARB meal on Wednesday!
10/16 120.5 Joining my ladies at my daughterβs to βmakeβ soap. Itβs melt and pour so should be fairly easy. I bought lemon and vanilla oils and Iβm going to cut some rosemary to add and to share. BONUS - visit with DGGS!
10/17 121.0 Plans yesterday postponed due to DD having stomach problems.π’π’Great Greek for early lunch before learning that we cancelled. Going to try to get school library straightened out today and tomorrow. The library assistant doesnβt speak English and is clueless about how to shelve books! DD said the library is a mess.
10/18 121.0 Late dinner at BBQ place with family. Worked 3 hours at DDβs school library, mostly standing. Going back today after mani. Manis are something I have decided I βdeserveβ after all the years of taking care of family and friends for over 50 years.
10/19 120.5. Got the school library fairly shipshape until the aide starts putting things away. Got my mani. Nails are a little shorter than I wanted but theyβll grow. I love the color I picked and if I had gone to the pool AT ALL this summer (=tan), they would be very striking. Meet the candidates Night in our community. DH is running for HOA board with the hope of bringing SOME fiscal responsibility. Consequently we are making goodies. Heβs making chocolate chip cookies and I will make my βfamousβ brownies. From scratch is so much better than a mix and these are so easy.
10/20 121.5 Too many βgoodiesβ but I didnβt eat anything anyone else brought. The majority of the people attending last night supported the 3 new candidates and the 2 current board members running for reelection (current president and a yes woman) did not get the applause on their responses. I could go on and on but will spare you. Iβm eager for blind neighbor to return and being able to fast a bit longer.

@pezhed LOL It was famous among our friends in Colorado one of whom told me I needed to get a food truck and sell them along with our homemade ice cream. Itβs the βFudge Brownieβ recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook I bought soon after we were married in 1970. I used to always double (cook in 9x13 pan) which DD#1 noted in blue on the right. I always use real butter and never put nuts in them or frosting on them.

Please join us starting on 10/14 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 202!
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

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.
process. It DOES work! But it does take
time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 / 168.4 / Friday is my work from home day. I had my second appointment of the week that verified I no longer need CPAP therapy for sleep apnea after my 120+ pound weight loss. A real victory. Had a nice night with my husband and I need to get to bed soon.
10/15 / 170.2 / Super busy day - brunch with friends, coffee and a walk with my dog and another friend, supper out with my husband and family.
10/16 / 171.8 / Yesterday was a big day of food and I was over on my calories. We had meals out with two different sets of people. I did get my steps in.
10/17 / 169.6 / We had a huge day of biking yesterday and then we stayed up late to watch the taped Bills game. Today was smoking busy at work.. thank goodness it was a work from home day.
10/18 / 169.6
10/19 / 170
10/20 / 171.6 / Since I last checked in I had a busy day in office, a meal out to celebrate my wedding anniversary, one night of business travel which included a massive food and alcohol binge, and well.. here I am. Today is back on track but I need to get out of this yo-yo as my average weight in trending up.

Starting Weight (2018): 230lbs
Ultimate Goal: 140lbs
Starting weight for R202: 164.2lbs
R202 Goal Weight: 162.2lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 163.4lbs (-0.8lbs) Woop! Did not expect to see a drop today since I started taking creatine some days ago. Ended R201 on 164.2lbs yesterday, so seeing the 163βs is nice today π₯³
10/15 - 162.7 (-1.5lbs) Damn! Super surprised by this number considering I spent the evening at McDonalds. Stayed within calories, but still! It contains so much salt and carbs. Iβll take it! π Had a really rough HIIT workout today that lasted for an hour. I was in HR zone 3 for 10 mins and zone 4 for 40min.
10/16 - 162.7 (-1.5lbs) The exact same number as yesterday. Which is great! I hope I never ever see this number again in my life π Donβt know yet if Iβm going to hit the gym today or just go for a walk.. I have a pretty intense workout planned for tomorrow. Wishing you all a lovely day π
10/17 - 163.0 (-1.2lbs) I have no explanation for this small bump up π I ate below calories, did one HIIT workout and went for two walks yesterday.
10/18 - 162.9 (-1.3lbs) Stayed under calories and did a one hour HIIT workout π Still patiently waiting for a big whoosh effect π π« No, but for real.. Even if the weight hasnβt changed that much the past month I can feel that my body has. Itβs tighter and stronger! Too bad I didnβt do a BF measurement before I started π
10/19 - 162.5 (-1.7lbs) My lowest this round π₯³ Hope I make it to my goal. Stayed under calories yesterday and did a one hour HIIT workout too, taking an active rest day today. Maybe Iβll go for a small walk or something.
10/20 - 162.5 (-1.7lbs) I just want to be done with the 160βs now π I feel like this is going so slow π Feels like my body really wants to stay at this weight, even if if doesnβt make sense. Going to focus on upping my protein intake and lowering carbs without changing my calorie intake. Canβt really go any lower on calories.
10/21 - 161.6 (-2.6lbs) Now weβre talking π Stayed under cals, ate less carbs and more protein. Did 40 minutes of HIIT training and got over 10k steps during the day.10/22

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 202 (my 134th). As always, thanks againΒ @QuiltingJaine.
An additional 0.6 pounds of holiday weight gain gone, 0.8 to go, that is my goal for this round. Resting heart rate down to 48, that's another improvement too as that is directly linked to my weight. No binges, keep within calories & macros.
[ Spoiler ]
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. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

10/14 138.2 β 4.75 miles walked yesterday mostly chasing around after little DGC!
10/15 138.2 β 10.54 miles walked, ready to move down from these figures now!
10/16 138.6 - 11.58 miles walked yesterday, we both got our Covid autumn boosters; it's nice to know that they had been tweaked to combat the Omnicron variant, couldn't get warm in bed last night, but DH was way too hot - side effects? Who knows!
10/17 137.8 β 3.66 miles walked yesterday, we both felt very tired and lethargic! Mostly rested, feeling much better today
10/18 137.8 β 10.25 miles walked, vitality back to normal again.
10/19 137.4 β 9.05 miles walked, feeling good & in control.
10/20 138 β 10.51 miles walked.
10 /21 137.2 β the persistent rain which was heavy & incessant, made any walking impossible, so took little DGS x2 to soft play and chased around after them .

10/15 73.1 - have a big night out tonight, worried my body will bounce back.
10/16 73.1 - hurrah! I drank loads of water & didnβt get fast food on my way home. Proud!
10/17 - 73.05 .. on the way down!
10/18 - 72.8 kg - So pleased to have breached another kg, ate really well yesterday with veggie stew for dinner which I have again tonight. Motivated!
10/19 72.35kg .. another loss and have now lost over half a stone, and can definitely see it in the mirror
10/20 - 72.25kg.. hope everyoneβs having a great week!
10/21 - 72.35kg .. oops thatβs the sandwich I ate for dinner! Iβve been sooo hungry this week and realised the carbs Iβm eating have moved from brown to white, which is likely why! Will look at this next week & plan a more filling meal!

I got care free in maintenance and the scale went up one lb at a time. Now Iβm turning it around one lb at a time.
2016- 245lbs
2019- 142lbs
9/12/22- 185lbs
10/14- 179.2
10/15- 179.2

10/18- 179.8
10/19- 178.8
10/20- 178.8
10/21- 181.2 yep this is real number. Take out wings and salad with DH eaten late. Calories werenβt bad but the sodium- I literally got out of bed twice to chug water in the middle of the night. It will take some effort to get back down for the end of the round but this is part of my journey.

Awesome! Thank you as always for posting @quiltingjaine! These challenges really keep me motivated and you are a great group of people! β€οΈ
This will be my 13th round and I have lost a total of 27.6 pounds so far! This challenge brings me the most success and is much easier by breaking up my goals into smaller chunks.
I have one very solid goal, to be in Onederland by 12/17/22, after that, let the weight come off how it does.

Hmm. Not good but it will come off.
10/17: 204.6
Iβve been bouncing around the same 2 pounds for two weeks now but Iβm not eating at maintenance calories. I just want to make it to Onederland already. I need to stop being so focused on a number!

I have no idea what I will wear now or what size it will be so that I can wear long underwear underneath.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 / 168.4 / Friday is my work from home day. I had my second appointment of the week that verified I no longer need CPAP therapy for sleep apnea after my 120+ pound weight loss. A real victory. Had a nice night with my husband and I need to get to bed soon.
10/15 / 170.2 / Super busy day - brunch with friends, coffee and a walk with my dog and another friend, supper out with my husband and family.
10/16 / 171.8 / Yesterday was a big day of food and I was over on my calories. We had meals out with two different sets of people. I did get my steps in.
10/17 / 169.6 / We had a huge day of biking yesterday and then we stayed up late to watch the taped Bills game. Today was smoking busy at work.. thank goodness it was a work from home day.
10/18 / 169.6
10/19 / 170
10/20 / 171.6 / Since I last checked in I had a busy day in office, a meal out to celebrate my wedding anniversary, one night of business travel which included a massive food and alcohol binge, and well.. here I am. Today is back on track but I need to get out of this yo-yo as my average weight in trending up.
10/21 / 170 / Colder day here today. After work my husband and I have a cooking class together.

/nothing again/ Some of you know I had a biopsy on my prostate last month. Yesterday it came back positive. Fortunately, so is my attitude. Pity is unnecessary. Prayers are appreciated, as we ponder the treatment path forward. Sorry if this is TMI.
I may have done some emotional eating of ice cream last night. But I will get back on the wagon today. π

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 -225.2 lbs. No change is better than going up. I think I will add the rowing machine to my exercise routine.
10/15 -223.8 lbs.
10/16 β 225 lbs.
10/17 β 225.2 lbs. Quiet weekend with lots of temptation.
10/18 β 225.6 lbs. I am all over the map, it seems, but Iβll get the hang of it yet!
10/19 -224.6 lbs.
10/20 -223.2 lbs. I forgot to post yesterday, busy day. I am not sure I believe these numbers, but I have added rowing to my routine this week. Time will tell.
10/21 β 223.6 lbs. I think if I just keep my eating right and slowly building my exercise it will show in the numbers.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 211.2 Last round before vacation. MIL is doing better and we hope will be headed back to rehab fairly soon. Lots going on this weekend but I am determined to remain somewhere close to plan. Happy Friday, yβall!

10/17 212.4 Several meals out this weekend so I think (hope) this is mostly sodium. Pushing water today. Meals planned and logged.
10/18 211.8 Work is incredibly hectic right now β lots to get done and not much time. Trying not to stress over everything, but itβs hard not to.
10/19 210.8 Didnβt get much sleep last night due to stressing about work and trip prep. Plus it was our first really cold night of the season so I had all four cats back on my side of the bed. They wonβt sleep on DHβs side because he turns and twitches too much. This is why I want a king bed! Meals are planned.
10/20 210.8 Slightly better sleep last night. Marking stuff slowly off my list. Meals are neither planned nor logged. π Itβs going to be one of those days.
10/21 211.2 Happy Friday, yβall! Not enough water yesterday and probably not enough food. Meals have been irregular around here to say the least.
