Day/Weight/Comment

12/23 - 178.6
Thank you for all the birthday wishes yesterday! Obviously, looking at my weight this morning, I enjoyed myself. That was the plan! It’s -9F here right now, wind chill -35F. Not going out! I am planning to make a pot of jambalaya to warm us up tonight. Yum! To the rest of you in the path of this wicked cold storm, stay warm and safe.

12/24 - 178.8
Happy Christmas Eve to all. I’m not doing much baking since we’re pretty much locked down, so not too many sweets around, but I do plan to make a mince pie today and homemade cranberry sauce. I made a really yummy jambalaya soup last night with Andouille sausage, chicken, and shrimp — perfect for a zero and below (F, not C!) day. I’ve also been indulging in a box of beautiful chocolates that DH got for my birthday. If I gain a couple of pounds, oh well, it’s Christmas, and they’ll come off. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Oh, and this little boy is my present to myself — coming home either next week or the week after, depending on driving weather. Looking for a name now. (Lavender refers to his collar color.) 😍

12/25 - 178.8
🎄Merry Christmas!🎄

12/26 - 180
I knew it. But it’s ok, I decided to enjoy the few treats we had for Christmas. Just one piece each of mince pie left, so I’ll be back on track today or tomorrow. I’m looking forward to turkey leftovers! Yum!

12/27 - 179.6
I almost skipped weighing this morning, but decided it couldn’t be worse than yesterday. 😁

12/28 - 180
No problem. My calories were low yesterday, so just residue from birthday-Christmas week.

12/29 - 178.8
He’s here! We still haven’t found his name, but we’re working on it. No accidents so far (his breeder did a great job with early training) and he’s already asking out. I’m looking forward to a lot of fun with this guy!

12/30 - 178.6
I mostly ate smart yesterday. My only goal for the next month is to try not to eat after 7, and if I do, to keep my snack calories below 200. And puppy has a name now — Diamonds One for the Books, aka Booker!

The thing that I do that sabotages my weight loss is late night snacking. I'm reposting the following article in case you find it helpful. I did.

Late night snacking could be ruining your health — here’s how to trick your body into stopping

@RockinRobyn672 Thanks for the article link — good reminders of why not to snack late. That’s definitely my downfall, the source of wayyyyyy too many extra calories. I just posted my goal for the next month (to start with) — try not to snack after 7, and if I do, stay under 200 calories. Maybe we can encourage each other!

Skyleen75

got care free in maintenance and the scale went up one lb at a time. Now I’m turning it around one lb at a time.

2016- 245lbs
2019- 142lbs
9/12/22- 185lbs

12/23 182.6
12/24 183.6

12/27 186.8
12/28 186.2
12/29 187
12/30 183.8 I’d like to say my hard work paid off but really I think this is just because I had a terrible nights sleep and I’m dehydrated. I was good on calories and exercise yesterday, so maybe some of this whoosh will stick.
I have a hard time making good food choices with no sleep, today will be hard.

12/29: DNW - I stuck mostly to plan yesterday, but had two high-calorie IPAs with dinner last night. I had planned for one. I forgot to weigh this morning because I was distracted due to some stressful family news - my DMIL fell at the memory care facility. She has been doing this a lot lately. She's in a different state which is the frustrating thing. My DBIL who lives close by is going to be with her at the hospital while they're checking her out.

12/26-203.8
12/27-204.8 ( whoa had a celebratory dinner and late dessert with family, will work to do better today)
12/28- 201.8 ( took two laxatives as had so many restaurant meals on vacation became constipated 😵‍💫, also realized I have to log my water as well as my schedule feels quite off on vacay)
12/29- 201.8 ( jogged for 30 mins on treadmill)
12/30-201.8 ( grateful to have held! Was nearly 2100 calories over my calorie plan for the day as have been snacking and deserting right along with the kids. Started off with waaay to many calories for breakfast. Need to be mindful of snack choices. Did stretching exercise which is essential for my osteoarthritis. Big big problems with night snacking, kids haven been having s’mores and other movie watching goodies and I do not have the allotment to join them usually. Need to plan on having more wiggle room since we are having family movie nights for the rest of kids holiday break.

12/29 -199.0- (Trend weight 199.1) Bloat is gone. Now to work on the fat rolls! I ended up having to cancel my rehab appt yesterday. I am required to do a glucose check before I come and mine was at 366. The Christmas Feast 36 hours before on Monday night was still affecting me I think. And the stress of it all too. I’m not allowed to do the cardiology rehab on days that my sugar is running 300 or over. I’ve really got to figure out how to cut carbs without eating any fat due to my cholesterol.

12/30 -200.0- (Trend weight 199.2) I travel today a bit further than usual to get in some of that after-Christmas shopping and get son out of the house. I don’t want to go out tomorrow on New Year’s Eve if I don’t have too. We are going down to the city that has a Golden Corral. I’ll try to focus on the better stuff and stay away from the dessert table. I’ve had enough sugar through the holidays!

@SheilaBoneham

I love the name "Booker". He is adorable!

Regarding late night snacking, I agree that we can encourage each other. My goal is to not snack after dinner. I didn't set a time because sometimes we're eating dinner at 8:30 or 9 because we work out after work.

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.

SW RND 209 124.5

12/23 125.5 Not sure how I missed posting yesterday and instead of notifying me that I hadn’t logged in when I actually had, MFP DIDN’T notify when I hadn’t!
12/24 125.5 Great Greek for OMAD yesterday because they are closed today and tomorrow. Local DD with whom we have annual plans is sick again so plans may be cancelled. Family tradition of pizza for Christmas Eve dinner since 1977 or 1978.
12/25 124.5 MERRY CHRISTMAS! We didn’t get pizza. We ate GG leftovers. Now DH seems to have a bug!
12/26 127.0 We had so looked forward to spending some time with DGGS (6 months) on his first Christmas but sickness at his house and at ours prevented that. Our Dear Neighbor brought us Christmas dinner because Carl is sick. Hidden salt? Sugar? Lots of carbs! Now my throat feels funny.
12/27 126.5 Can’t say I’m happy about this but looking at the graph, my weight appears to have been creeping up since soon after my husband’s first surgery in September. January 11 is his next follow up and he should be allowed to drive again. Thank goodness!
12/28 126.5 DH has been sick since 12/23 and couldn’t swallow yesterday because his throat was so sore. Trip to Urgent Care - Not flu, not COVID, not strep. Extremely swollen lymph nodes. Steroid and antibiotic.Hope he feels better today, I’m not feeling great myself. Picked up Chinese on the way home yesterday. General Tso’s chicken for me (so much sugar!) and cashew shrimp for him. He couldn’t eat it so it’s in the refrigerator. I hope he can swallow today.
12/29 127.5 Not surprised, Ate the rest of my Chinese entree. He ate most of his so I froze the rest as a “TV dinner.” I need to get back on my program. All of my major joints hurt.
12/30 125.5 Wasn’t hungry, didn’t eat until after 5pm. Only 9 total carbs and joint inflammation seems better already.

12/30 - DNW - BF and younger kids just left. Last night was the first night in over a week I slept past 3am! I could breathe at least somewhat through the night (I've been waking up between 1 and 3am unable to breathe and then unable to fall back asleep after). I still have some mucus and slight pressure in sinuses, but feeling much more alive. Today is grocery day so I'm checking in real quick, reminding myself to grab some healthy foods for lunch, and avoiding any unnecessary snacks before I head out. Get my mind in the right spot for the week ahead. I have leftover homemade chicken and dumplings for lunch today and tomorrow. Unsure dinner, but I'm thinking I'll make something like a homemade chicken veggie wrap or something. I'll also grab some salad stuff as a side for my lunches to up the veggies and fullness factor. I did manage to finish, despite the sinus infection, my workout challenge from NerdFitness. It ended yesterday with a doozy! 75 squats, 50 pushups, 30 lunges (each leg), 50 single arm rows (each arm). I can barely walk today, but I did it all spaced out. Now I'm going to focus on doing the 15 minute workouts from my book (The Feelgood Plan). I have it sitting my desk as a constant reminder, too.

12/28 - Hi, I'm still alive. I don't feel like it. I have a horrible sinus infection I've been battling since the 23rd. And then work absolutely BLEW UP. It's not fun being the only person "in the office" (AKA not on vacation) during holidays when things have been left unfinished. It was a task that would take 1 experienced person approximately a full week to sort through. They gave me a day and a half. Oh, and I've never done it so I'm having to learn as I go. Oh, and nobody senior is in the office to help me or nudge me in the right direction. Overtime also isn't approved for this and with BF's kids down here, I have been trying NOT to work any unpaid overtime and miss out on fun with them but still get this done. I'm missing out anyway because they were gone all day yesterday. They're going to be gone all day today while I'm stuck home. Good news is, though, I found a place to inspect and clean my chimney so we can use our fireplace, finally! A little late with the cold snap that just passed, but luckily we didn't lose power so didn't need it anyway. Hopefully, with that stuff turned in yesterday, I can relax today and tomorrow work-wise. I'm off Friday but kids leave Friday to go back to Kansas. Booo.

12/24 / 177.6 / It's been very busy at the house. Work is wrapped up but I am still dealing with on call emergencies. Today my dad leaves to start his journey back home. There is lots going on at the house today.
12/25 / 179.2
12/26 / 178.6
12/27 / 179 / Back to tracking every morsel. I definitely learned some things about myself this last month. I have a month until I go away for a three week vacation so I really need to get my mind right. Hope you all enjoyed the holiday season!
12/28 / 179.6 / Everything was on track last night but I finished it with a mini snack binge. I did get out for a walk despite feeling unwell.
12/29 / 180.4
12/30 / 178.8 / On track again for the last couple of days and feeling good. Cold is mostly kicked and most of Christmas is packed away. Can't believe 2022 is almost behind us!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/23. 136.6 - no structured walking, my day for childminding 2 little DGS.
12/24. 137.4 - oh dear, Christmas goodies and no walking showing up already!! Yesterday was a washout; heavy rain all day & preparation for the big day as well as nails and hair appointments.
12/25 🎄 DNW - Happy Christmas everyone & hope all my friends across the pond are able to stay safe and warm with the massive storm you are having 🤞🙏. Came away for Christmas, brought our caravan up to a site close to DD, DS & their families, so concentrating on making sure I'd brought all the presents etc, that forgot to pack the scales!! I'll still try to keep restrained, but it is Christmas, so when I get home at the weekend I'll see the damage!!. Managed to fit a 5.5 mile walk in after we arrived & set up on site.
12/26 - DNW - Had a wonderful day with family, all the little DGC were so excited and all presents loved. Managed 4 mile walked before rain came in the morning.
12/27 DNW - boxing day at DS & family, managed 3 mile walk before and 4 on our return. Plenty more goodies! Sticking to 2 meals per day and trying only to pick in between!!
12/28 DNW - just short of 9 miles walked yesterday to Hardwick Hall, had a coffee and walked back, didn't quite beat the rain, had a lazy reading afternoon.
12/29 DNW - 9.09 miles walked after we got a window in the rain !!
12/30 DNW - 6.6 miles walked yesterday after DH & I childminded our 2 DGS, it was nice for him to spend some time with them too. We travel back home today so tomorrow it will be the moment of truth on the scales!

12/30-167-Back on track. Disposed of all junk in sight. Eating a larger meal at noon and less in the evening. I haven’t been paying attention to IF, but I never eat after 6 p.m. and rarely before 11 a.m.

Round 209 SW:260

12/23 -- 260
12/24 -- 258.3 Christmas coming...so hard to resist the goodies but will be mindful at least!
12/25 -- 259 Merry Christmas to all that celebrate it! Trying to up my water intake today to try and balance out any bad decisions on my part! Not gonna stress too much about it though. Its super cold here in San Antonio..24 degrees this morning. I guess Texas forgot we are in tropics. Stay warm everyone!
12/26 -- 259.6 OK I can live with that, not nearly as tragic as I expected. Checking in early and keeping my commitment to log in and weigh daily. Off to work this cold Texas morning. I work 24 hour shifts so will check in again tomorrow. Y'all have a safe one!
12/27-- 257.5 Wow...crazy long shift at work. This holiday loss must be attributed to the "who the heck has time to stop and eat diet"
12/28--257.8 Off to work again today. Trying to make better choices. Its a struggle. Most of the work days I have consist of grazing throughout the day on the run mostly. Working on trying to find better ways to manage..seems that is where I get stuck the most!
12/29-- 258 Whew! Hectic couple of days! Love catching up reading how everyone doing. Have a great day everyone!

12/30-- 259.4 and whoop..there is that holiday gain I was wondering where it was.. back on track today!
