    @Machias1949 At our fall visit our doctor gives each of us a prescription for Tamiflu. We haven’t used one yet but have them if we need them. Hope you feel better!

    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 208 (my 140th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal for this round, same as last, is to lose that gained pound, a bit more too would be nice! 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.
    End of round 69 134.2 lbs

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/13 135.6 – good to see it's still coming down from the weekend festivities. 9.56 miles walked. Started Christmas wrapping yesterday afternoon; about half done.
    12/14 135.2 – 8.02 miles walked, I'm not going to meet my challenge this year, I have too many miles to make up, but I'll keep walking!

    12/15 134.8 – 5.02 miles walked around shopping centre with DD Christmas shopping.
    12/16 136.2 – barely any movement yesterday, rove 58 miles for child care for DGS, then took him further 18 miles to DS & DGDs. Way too cold to take the little ones out for a walk; played indoors, then return journey. Got a little complacent with food choices.
    12/17 136.2 – 5.68 miles walked, it's quite challenging in the frozen snow and icy footpaths!
    12/18 136.2 – 11.52 miles, some of which were built up at the dance school Christmas dance last night, we only sat out for 3-4 dances all night!
    12/19 135.6 – no structured walking, met up with DD, DS & families, had a Sunday lunch out & then headed to Dudley Tunnels for a boat trip underground to a short pantomime & then back on dry land to visit Santa. This is what Christmas is all about; a magical time for our little DGC (4).

    @CamandJarvis I purchased a book a few months ago that was featured I think on an MFP blog, titled "The Whole Body Reset" by Stephen Perrine. It has made a difference in how I eat, and I think it's going to help with weight loss and long term maintenance. So far it seems to be working and I'm not getting that 2 PM feeling of sleepiness and exhaustion. For most of my life I've been eating a small breakfast, a small lunch, and a huge dinner. Perrine's book includes the research behind why women need to eat 25 grams of protein (30 for men) at every meal and at least 5 grams of fiber, plus it has recipes and examples, plus more helpful information. I thought I'd share it here in case it's helpful to you or anyone else. :smile:

    I love this because I came on here to say that I completely forgot I ordered a book, based on a suggestion, and it arrived today. It's called "The Feelgood Plan: Happier, Healthier, & Slimmer in 15 Minutes a Day" by Dalton Wong & Kat Faithfull-Williams

    With holiday season, work has gotten slow, so I read the ENTIRE thing in between my work emails. A. ) I was so engrossed, I only ate HALF my planned lunch and I'm still not hungry 4 hours later. Whew. B. ) It provides guidance on tiny changes to make over time, provides meal ideas, workouts, de-stressing activities, how to banish cravings, and methods for better sleep! C. ) Everything is based on a simple 15-minute (1%) chunk of the day.

    It even has a 12-week little program when you make tiiiiny changes, one at a time. Week one is to log your food, how you felt during and after eating, and then taking note of when you ate. This allows us to determine our path forward (increase meal frequency with smaller meals or vise versa. Eat more in general. Stress/emotional eating and how to stop). It also includes a very simple body weight workout to do during this first week to get a feel of where we are.

    @Machias1949 and @deepwoodslady I hope you both feel better soon! And Donna, no one will die if you aren’t able to bake. My foot still hurts from standing making all those pies and rolls for Thanksgiving! I love KT tape!

    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 over 5 years with amazing results!

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

    SW RND 208 124.5

    12/13 125.5 Ate Mexican for OMAD. Made stupid choices. I’m blaming stress. I am stressed because DH won’t ask for help when he should and, quite honestly, I’m tired of worrying about him doing something stupid that messes up his healing.
    12/14 125.5 awake at 1:30. Thought it was time to get up but went back to bed and back to sleep. Woke up again at 4:25 decided to stay up but then change my mind went back to bed and slept until 7:02.
    12/15 125.0 slept well, I think, I feel as if I never move. According to the Fitbit I m moving all night. BBQ (Jessie Rae’s) last night for dinner.
    12/16 126.0 busy days all this week, glad it’s almost over. Took DH for post op follow up, went to Sam’s Club for a couple of items and lunch - hot dog in bun, haven’t had one of those in a long time- my eye doctor appt, had left over brisket for dinner then made 2 kinds of shortbread for “appetizer and dessert” party this afternoon. DGD#2 officially gets her Masters this afternoon and we’ll watch via YouTube streaming. DH has PT assessment and I need my nails done - so will call neighbor’s manicurist to she if she can do that in the time I have available. Manicures are something I have previously done on extremely rare occasions in the past but have decided I “deserve” after these months of “chauffeur” duty. I’m looking forward to the do nothing weekend.
    12/17 125.0 Finally getting a mani this afternoon. Going to Great Greek after. Giving them the shortbreads that are left so they aren’t here to tempt us. We didn’t go to the community Christmas dinner on Thursday night since we weren’t sure how DH would be feeling by ticket deadline but it was all carbs (Italian) so I really didn’t want to go. I went to the Arts and Crafts appetizer and dessert “potluck” but had eaten brisket before I went so didn’t eat there. I had cauliflower and Brussels sprouts for “dinner.”
    12/18 125.0 Got mani, ate at Great Greek, took remaining shortbreads to them so I’m not faced with temptation!
    12/19 125.0 I can’t complain-this WAS my original ultimate goal weight. We met fam at BBQ last night. I ate Brisket and 2 tater tots.
    12/20 125.5 I ate salad (from GG) and steak from home. DH finished the cookies. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
    12/21 125.5 Taking blind friend to Omelet House for brunch. At least OMAD should be easy and their 6 egg omelets last me for 3-4 days.

    12/21-166-Had unexpected overnight company, luckily I had flannel sheets on the beds ready for our adult boys when they come for Christmas. My friend who came to visit is a Quilter and brought a project so we went into the sewing room and I worked on wrapping gifts while she sewed and we
    visited. It was a wonderful break in the hustle and bustle.
    Now headed to my dads to make tamales tomorrow; we will spend the day prepping. It will be good to hang out with him, he is 85.
