11/03 - 176.2
I went for a nice long walk in the woods yesterday, but on the way back to my car I tripped over a crazy bunch of grass and fell. Skinned and bruised my right palm, and my left knee has a big colorful lump. Iβm fine, just tender, and trying to figure out how I landed on opposite limbs! But the woods were lovely, full of crunchy leaves and that wonderful fragrance of fall. Today Iβm off to hang out at the dog show, see friends, smooch dogs. Have a great day, everyone!
11/04 - 176.4
I had a lovely time yesterday hanging out at the dog show, seeing friends, some I see all the time, some from other places I see only occasionally, and playing with dogs. A friend from Indianapolis whom I met on a train in 2011 was here showing her dog, and came for dinner, which was lovely. And in spite of the lobster ravioli with olive oil and Parmesan, a little wine, and a piece of lemon pound cake, I stayed under calories for the day. (No lunch.) I also go lots of steps walking around the Coliseum for 3+ hours! Iβm writing today but plan to spend most of tomorrow at the show, trying to figure out what kind of dog I want next, which is weight-related since I get a lot more exercise when Iβm playing with a dog! π
11/05 - 177
Ok, time lag from Thursday. Thatβs fine. I just got home from all day at the dog show again, walking or standing most of the time. It was fun to see people I havenβt seen in ages. Staying home tomorrow to write and make soup.
11/06 - 176.6
Nothing to report since I checked in late yesterday. Planning a creative dayβwrite (working on an idea for a new book), make soup (once I land on a recipe), knit, go for a walk, readβ¦. I hope you all have a lovely Sunday!
11/07 - 176.6
I made a really yummy new soup yesterdayβbutternut squash and apple. Interesting combo! And low calorie. Leftovers today. Yum. Thatβs the 42nd different soup Iβve made this year. π΅
11/08 - 176.6
Iβm beginning to see a trend here. π I actually expected to be up this morning as I ate way too much yesterday. Moving alongβ¦
11/09 - 177.2
Oopsie doopsie. I overate yesterday, too. Donβt know whatβs gotten into me the past two days. Colder weather, I guess. Iβll do better today.

@staceymcmd happy birthday!! 8" of snow today?! Winter starts early there. It's been unseasonably warm here, though, so I wouldn't be mad about some unseasonable snow! Hope you get to celebrate tonight even if you have to stay home

11/4: 132.7 - Workout completed and much better eating today. Stayed under overall calorie goal.
11/5: 132.7 - Busy day, but got my workout in. Despite eating a few pieces of Halloween candy, still ate within my goals.
11/6: 133.2 - Get together at a friendβs house for dinner. Got my workout in, but eating was not great.
11/7: 133.2 - Birthday celebrations yesterday - tried not to eat much during the day to save calories for dinner and dessert. Mostly worked. Had to add a good workout to give me some extra calories for the day.
11/8: 132.5 - Got a couple of workouts in before the rains and tried to eat more vegetables. Dessert(s) may have did me in a bit though.
11/9: 131.8 - Normal workouts, eating more vegetables for lunch and dinner, so-so sleep.

Dinner will be out in the big city. Between that and no pill during travel, my weight tomorrow will be a disaster but I will bounce back. I am very close to my starting weight this round. I would hate to blow an opportunity for improvement at the end of the round.
11/09 -199.8- (Trend weight 199.7) I am so so so grateful the scale stayed in Onederland after 3 factors: 1. travel with sitting and little activity for the day. 2. No water pill so definite fluid retention. 3. Dinner out of town at a restaurant. I definitely would have eaten better at home. I will take the hit with grace and work on a good day today and tomorrow. More travel on Friday. Itβs an opportunity to choose wisely again.

My goal is to lower my blood pressure through weight loss and exercise, so what I eat, and when, is a major focus for me.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take- 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.
time, effort, and most of all, patience!

My basic plan is to lose one pound a week (on avg). This week is a little extra since I am just starting (first week, if I am good, is usually more).
Day/Weight/Comment
11/7 235: The morning after a 2-week cruise. Changing from WW to MyFitnessPal and calories.
11/8 231.8: First day is always easy to lose. I tracked everything and really didn't eat enough. Wasn't my plan.
11/9 231.6: Customer was in town so I was less active and ate a few things that I shouldn't. But I owned it all and tracked everything!

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 203 (my 135th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.
That's the last 0.2 pound of holiday weight gain gone. Now to move on to the weight that crepy on before I went! I'd like to lose a pound this round.
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. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

11/5 148.0 Ate a little more than I should have yesterday.
11/6 148.2 It was our youngest sons birthday, so we had him over for a family dinner last night.
11/7 148.4 Stuck to plan pretty good yesterday, so not sure what's going on.
11/8 147.8 That's better
11/9 147.8 Today is my birthday. My husband made reservations at a nice restaurant for tonight, but they're forecasting another 8" of snow today so we may have to postpone the dinner until the weekend. We live up in the mountains, 20 miles from town, so it wouldn't be very safe driving conditions at night.
11/10 147.0 Wow, I just met goal too! Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! I stayed in yesterday and watched my intake of food. We'll go out to dinner this weekend, I'm really looking forward to a lobster dinner

11/10 - 161.8 - I'm feeling beyond bloated today. I did have a lot of beans yesterday which can cause that. I had black beans in my chicken spinach salad only to realize BF was grilling with baked beans for dinner! Feeling really bleh (sleepy) this morning. I waited until my 2nd alarm at 6am to get up and only did a very gentle morning yoga. Just enough to slowly wake up the body (and the mind because I was about to fall asleep there on my yoga mat when I first started). No rowing but I'm listening to my body which is screaming to take it slow. This weather isn't helping me at all. It's rather gloomy out. Storms supposed to happen tomorrow but today clouds look like they could open right up any second. I have a much-needed haircut this afternoon to rid me of these straw-like dead ends and get some layers back to make my hair more manageable (it's down to my butt in length). Focus for today is to get my water in (bye bye bloat) and be mindful about what goes in this mouth of mine!! I'm tired of not seeing progress and the feasting season is almost upon us so it's only going to get more challenging. Plus at this point, I haven't managed to fit any apple cider in my calorie goals and I LOVE apple cider. Since I'm not seeing progress, I'm almost to the point of chugging the entire gallon to make up for all this lost time. You hear that, body?! Don't make me do it...

Previous Day's Comments11/03 - Scale doesn't show, but I feel muuuuch better. I don't look or feel quite as bloated as even yesterday. Scale isn't accurate, but it IS consistent. Body fat percentage is down (only 1% higher than first week of Sept, pre-travel), water is leveling out right around Sept numbers, muscle mass increased back into September range, (yippee, back to when I worked out consistently!) Progress is being made. Recomposition? Readjustment? Whatever you want to call it, it's positive changes. Scale weight is being a bah-humbug cranky butt and deceiving me... Though I'd really love it to cooperate so I can see 150s again..soon. Pretty please, scale?! Anyway, rowed for 10 minutes followed by yoga for flexibility this morning. FamWife just texted about some Asian Bake recipe (said "it's like sushi in a pan, all cooked") so we doing that tonight. I'll have to guestimate and work around that for lunch.

11/07 - Lots of mechanic and house work this weekend leaving us eating fast food almost all weekend. Did have wings for "linner" while watching football yesterday. I made sure I got some raw carrots and celery in as well. BF has jury duty selection today so I'm on my own all day. I already did a 10 minute rowing workout and a 23 minute yoga practice this morning. Might be able to do some lunges and pushups during work breaks without crazy looks, though! Also realized I give myself time to actually do things without feeling rushed simply by setting my alarm 15 minutes sooner. I hit snooze and get up at 5:54 to get dressed and moving! Especially helpful as I start work at 7. Tonight's dinner is a sausage, bell pepper, potato skillet I make. It's pretty calorie dense, but it's super simple. BF loves it and since we don't know his schedule with this jury duty, I volunteered dinner duties. I have some roasted sweet potatoes to eat up for lunches as well as a butternut and acorn squash I need to cook up here in the next few days for lunch as well.
11/08 - I accidentally made dinner too salty and I can definitely feel the puffiness from it. I'm also suuuuper thirsty first thing which also means good ol' sodium. Woke up and knocked out a 15 minute rowing workout and then 10 minute morning yoga practice already. Today is voting so I'm trying to determine a good time to sneak into town (county HQ) between work to knock that out. Also have to go into the OTHER town (address... have address for a town in one county, but live in the other county... its weird. And annoying when you have errands) to the post to pick up a package they claim I requested to be held. Um, no. It's a springform pan to make strawberry swirl cheesecake and my strawberries are going bad while I was waiting for it (supposed to arrive Friday. They just told me yesterday...after lunch...) but I may have to hold out hope the strawberries will hold on a little longer and I'll go on lunch break tomorrow since I'm thinking I'll vote on lunch today. Gaaaah. BF didn't get picked for jury duty so he's free now. Let's hope things go a little smoother the rest of the week (: EDIT: I just confirmed I'm good to vote (with address change. I am) and found out my Ranch's fire department (HOA) is a polling center so I only have to drive a mile! THAT I can do. Yippee! Maybe over lunch then, I go to the post office and on my way back home, I'll stop on the way at the firehouse (have to drive past it anyway)
11/09 - No TMI yesterday. Wish I could see my weight today AFTER my routine is back, but I cannot. Oh well, hopefully tomorrow will reflect that. Rowing and yoga for the morning is complete! Yesterday I ended up meeting BF and eating lunch out at the hibachi place right next to the post. Kept it simple with a cute little lunch bento box which filled me right up without making me feel too full. I imagine sodium wasn't great, though. Dinner was homemade nachos. I tried my best to keep portions good but no veggies involved to help. I also took the pup and myself for a mile long walk last night before dinner (too dark after and we have coyotes and bobcats that like to come a little too close for comfort). Not sure today's meals other than I have acorn and butternut squash and a couple roasted sweet potatoes to eat up (if they're still good). Also have some spinach that needs eaten. I got a package of frozen fully cooked grilled chicken strips for me to use for lunches so I may make a salad with squash/sweet potato as a side for lunch.

Day/Weight/Comment11/3 - πͺπ»βοΈβ± 124.4. I was here before my trip last week. Weβll see if I can get below it! I did my 100th Peloton ride yesterday! Most of those rides have been since June so I'm feeling pretty good. I also had a single piece of Halloween candy which seems like a big success. I definitely have a Pringle problem with snack-size candy--once I pop I can't stop!11/10 - 123.6. This morning my husband told me I'm "falling off" (to quote my late grandmother from when I lost weight a few years ago) and I should be done losing weight and just work on building muscle. I'm not sure I agree with him but I have noticed that I'm getting close to where I want to be. I don't know how to determine my goal weight! I'm feeling pretty confident at this weight but there are still some fatty parts of me (tummy, arms) that I would like to diminish. I'm not sure how to proceed. Does anyone have any advice?
11/4 - β±πͺπ»123.2! That feels good. If my Renpho scale can be trusted, I would hit my initial body fat goal of 25% today! Not sure if I do trust it, though. I did a strength workout and Peloton ride yesterday. Today will be tough to get a workout in because my 3 year old was sent home with an earache and fever yesterday so heβs home with me. Thereβs always something. At least itβs Friday though!
11/5 - 124.4
11/6 - 125.2 - the weekend is striking again. Iβve worked out at least a little bit both days but havenβt paid much attention to my intake. I went to a womenβs story circle gathering last night and enjoyed a wide variety of snacks and too much wine. Today we had pancakes and bacon for breakfast, and weβre having subs for lunch.
11/7 - πͺπ»βοΈβ±π«127.2 Ahh, why do I do this to myself every weekend? I was so far off the rails all weekend. We finally had a weekend at home. I did get my workouts in at least. It's a new week! I'm sure part of this is water retention, but I'm probably going to have to work on this all week just to get back to where I've already been.
11/8 - πͺπ»βοΈβ±π«126.2. Get out of here, weekend weight gain! Was kind of hoping that more would drop off today but I guess it's going to take more than one good day. I did 40 minutes of strength training and 30 minutes of Peloton riding yesterday and stayed a little under my calorie goal. That's definitely easiest to achieve if I fast until 2pm or later, but I'm feeling hungry today. Today I'm going on a mountain bike ride at lunch time with my neighbor! With some assistance from my husband, I changed my own brake pads this morning. It's so empowering to do my own bike maintenance. It makes me want to do more. I also voted this morning! If you're in the US and haven't already, vote! vote! vote!
11/9 - πͺπ»βοΈβ±125.0. I had a great on-plan day yesterday. Today will be a little trickier since we're going to a brewery for dinner, but I think I can do it. I don't usually make the healthiest choices there, but there are actually some healthy options for food. Yesterday's mountain bike ride was rescheduled to today. Yesterday, instead of mountain biking, I went for a 45-minute/3.5-mile jog with the dogs and did a leg workout (owwwww). Happy hump day everyone!
