3/13 - 178.8
For some reason the cold yesterday seemed to go right through me, so I stayed in other than a few fetch games with 5he pup out back. I’m feeling more inclined to get out today.
3/14 - 179
Today is our 31st anniversary. Whew! 31!? It’s been a fun ride! Anyway, I woke up to a big box of chocolates from DH. Love the thought, of course love the chocolates, don’t love the calories. I’m going to freeze most of them for later, take a couple out occasionally. I’m sure we’ll be doing something special for a late lunch/early dinner. 🥂 Maybe I’ll skip the scale tomorrow! Anyway, it’s freakin’ cold out, so I think I’m in again most of the day. Looking forward to warm days so I can walk everything off!
3/15 - 180
I expected that! We had Italian for our celebratory dinner yesterday, a creamy chicken risotto for me plus salad, and I enjoyed every bite. I also ate way too many of those chocolates, so may bump up again tomorrow, though I’m going to try hard to eat responsibly today (and tomorrow and tomorrow….). Another really cold day here so far—I’m hoping it will warm up this afternoon. I’m definitely ready for spring, and it’s on the way according to all the daffodils, albums, tulips, and lilies poking their green little heads up! 🌷🌷🌷
3/16 - 182
Ok, that’s still mostly Tuesday, although I did have some chocolate yesterday, but overall I wasn’t much over my calories goal. Some of the uptick has to be water—fat doesn’t adhere that quickly. So back to the plan. I don’t know why, but I’m really tired and just want to go sleep, although I slept well last night. I mentioned last round a project I’ve been putting off since Dec. —I think that’s part of my exhaustion/mild depression, so today! Right now! I have to get that painting off my to do list. I think it’s probably worth ten pounds! Seriously, I think deal with having undone “assignments” I don’t want to do by eating. Crazy. If I start it now, I can finish it in a day or two. That’s my goal for today.
3/17 - 181
Ok, I did it. One day no snack bingeing. Calories were below goal, too, so my anniversary pasta & chocolate will come off. I also was short on water yesterday and ate dinner later than usual because Booker had doggy school. It’s a cold, rainy, dreary day here so I probably won’t get much of a walk, darn it. I did finally start the painting that’s been nagging at me— hope to finish it today or tomorrow. Yay! Getting that out of my head will help a lot. Salad for lunch. Don’t know what DH is planning for dinner.
3/18 - 180.6
Amazing how easy it is to gain, how hard to lose it again. Jeesh. But I’m moving the right direction at least. And that darn painting that’s been hanging over me is almost finished. Yay! It’s really been cold and windy here yesterday and today, but Booker learned a few new tricks and yesterday passed his Novice Trick Dog - Master test, his 4th trick dog title in 9 days. 😁 for that one we had to turn in videos of 10 tricks. Lots of fun! And…two days snack/binge free. Another yay!
3/19 - 180.2
Ok, I see the flaw in my snack/binge-free tracking system….How to mark days I slipped? Or don’t? Is the hundred day goal for 100 binge-free days extending however long it takes to hit 100, or is it a finite 100 days with (ideally, no snacking/bingeing? Cuz I slipped last night. I think I’m going to record the slip while still aiming for the 100 days, if that makes sense.
3/20 - 180
Good day yesterday, though I did have some plain air-popped popcorn last night so got a ^ on my tracker. But it’s ok, it wasn’t a binge! I finished the painting (pic below) finally, so that monkey is off my back. It took three months of procrastinating and two days of painting. Duh. It’s a bit warmer today, so I’m about to pack Booker into the car and go to one of our lovely parks for a walk. Maybe I should paint him next! Have a great day, everyone!

@SheilaBoneham I'd been meaning to comment on this post and now the round is almost over. Your painting is really good! Was this your dog prior to getting Booker? You mention that it was hanging over you to finish. Were you painting it for someone else or a specific event? [/quote]
@SheilaBoneham Likewise, I've been thinking of this painting too. I'm nearing the anniversary of my dog's death after 16 years with him. I've thought about painting him and that it might be therapeutic for me but I don't know how and don't want to make a mockery of him with my lack of skill. Any tips?3 -

Day, Weight, Comment
3/13 - 146.6 Nice way to start a new round! Yesterday was an ab workout + got in a little over 14,000 steps. Need to menu plan & get to the grocery store today as I am out of everything, but looks like a big snowstorm is coming tomorrow, so know the stores will be crazy. Also fighting off a little cold bug, I cannot/will not get sick!
3/14 - 146.4 Well, the cold bug got the better of me yesterday after all, skipped my workout and my Fitbit says I slept 13+ hours and poorly at that. I think I'm more on the mend today and going to work out and see how I feel afterwards.
3/15 - 146.4 Don't think I'll see a real drop on the scale again until I shake this cold but feeling better day by day. Yesterday I felt good enough to get in a workout, did a HIIT full body with weights, followed by a little bit of yoga stretches and then a long soak in a hot bath, was sedentary for the rest of the day and went to bed early. NSV...Saw a noticeable change in my waistline/stomach in the mirror this morning, positive things are happening!
3/16 - DNW (drank water when I 1st got up, so skipped the scale). Yesterday was a lower body strength workout with exercise bands + a little over 10,000 steps
3/17 - 146.0 Yesterday was a full body HIIT workout + 10,000 steps, had to pivot on my dinner plans and ended up eating out but was able to stick to my eating plan. Need to lose 1 more pound before the end of this round to reach my goal, I'm doing everything right, but my body just needs to cooperate!!!
3/18 - 145.4 So close to my round goal! Yesterday completed the 30-day workout program I was doing, and it was a HIIT abs workout. I won't start another 30-day plan until I get back from my trip on the 29th but have a quick 5 day one to do before I leave and then hopefully will do another 5 day one while I am traveling.
3/19 - 144.6 Yesterday was a full body workout with weights + a little over 13,000 steps. Today marks dropping into the "normal" BMI category and 50 lbs. lost since last April. Not really celebrating either of those yet as I know I will gain a few pounds on my trip next week to nullify both of these, but the following week, I will celebrate when I know I will achieve both of those goals again.
3/20 - 143.7 Yesterday was a lower body workout plus about 14,000 steps. Was baking cakes for my daughter's birthday on Tuesday and it is much more difficult of a process while being on my 21 days of no sugar, had to be mindful to not lick a spoon, no taste testing! But was successful, now I have to make the frosting and the Nutella cream filling today, so more challenges ahead
3/21 - 143.6 Had a tiny cheat yesterday on 21 day eating plan and ate something "processed" but it was an organic, grain-fee, gluten-free, soy free, "taste-free" pizza, so I think it was okay and it fit in my calories, so I am calling it a win! Yesterday was a cardio abs day and just over 13, 000 steps.

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.

3/13 126.5 Happy Belated Birthday, Chris!
3/14 126.0 Just sticking to my plan, finally. My evening snacking has been sunflower seeds salted in the shell. Time consuming due to sucking all of the salt! Drinking plenty of water. Up today at 4:30AM Lunch today with a friend. Let me just add that waking at 4:30AM is not acceptable to me!
3/15 126.5 WHOO HOO! I slept until 7:05! 8 hours 9 minutes! I will attribute that to the muscle relaxer I took when I got up at 2:30. I felt the headache starting in the back of my head. I was supposed to work at the quilt show all day but it turns out I wasn’t needed. I’m so glad - maybe that’s why I was able to sleep! Uptick due to spanakopita I ate at lunch yesterday, I’m sure. Flour!
3/16 127.5 Bingo last night was frustrating at best plus the “dinner” was pathetic and nothing but super carby junk. Sliders on those Hawaiian rolls (🤮) with less than a tablespoon of chicken salad on each, potato chips, and ice cream sandwiches.
3/17 127.0 Woke up at 5:20 with cramping in my foot.
3/18 127.5 We decorated cookies at Arts and Crafts - I ate some. Wheat and sugar. Meeting fam for breakfast and then haircuts. Haven’t seen GGS for 6 weeks! Eight weeks from today we board a ship for 2 weeks. I need to get my “TMI” together. I need to put on my gym shoes and then actually GO THERE! The brain and body function better on ketones than carbs - less brain fog and more fat burn.
3/19 127.5 Throwing away the junk carbs. I have zero willpower!
3/20 128.0 127.5 post poo My stomach felt off all day yesterday and still isn’t happy. @SModa thanks for the reminder about Miralax and I’m making my FIRST chia “pudding” with mixed berries.
*3/21 128.0 Thank goodness for multiple log sites- I had messed up a day!
3/22 127.5 Chia pudding was quite tasty and more is “started” in the refrigerator. This could become my “dessert” when I want something sweet.
@quiltingjaine I also made some chia pudding a couple of weeks ago for the first time. It was quite good. I use sugar-free jello a lot too, but it uses the kind of sweeteners that spike my sugar so that is not good.1 -

03/21 -188.6- (Trend weight 190.3) I am feeling better today and have managed to raise my bp up to about 100/60 which is better. I have not taken one of my bp meds in two days so that may be helping. I have stuck to my diet plan but am only burning between 1800-1900 calories laying around and taking it easy so no movement on the scale. I did hop on the exercise bike late last night for 20 minutes and felt okay afterward. I’ll probably do that again today. I need to burn some calories, but also to stay conditioned for my rehab Thursday so the workout there doesn’t kill me! I’ve been sticking to my diet plan real well but boy oh boy, did I ever wake up hungry today! It’s going to be challenging! Last weigh-in tomorrow, Let’s make today count!
03/22 -188.2- (Trend weight 190.1) I have a long hair color appointment today. Feeling okay but still abstaining from that night-time bp med as it’s still a tad bit too low. Down 0.8 this round which I wish would have been better, but my trend weight is down substantially and that makes me very happy as it is a good reflection of my current eating habits. I’ve seen a lot of progress with a lot of you as we push into spring. Congratulations! See you all next round.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

3/16: 132.3 - did not eat too much yesterday since I have a nervous stomach when I fly. However, was starving when we got home and consumed a ton of snacky food right before bed
3/17: 132.1 - pretty normal day yesterday workout-wise and eating-wise.
3/18: 133.4 - Well, I made two different kinds of Irish soda bread (sourdough and non-) and a hefty vegetarian cottage pie for St. Patrick’s day. Said some choice words as I stepped on the scale this morning.
3/19: 131.0 - I’m hoping this is a true weight as my scale has been a little wonky. I did truly focus by pre-logging and not eating back all my exercise calories.
3/20: 130.5 - Getting back to really focusing on calories after vacation indulgences. I did have dessert, but still a number of calories left.
3/21: 130.5 - Slept really well last night - hopefully that makes up for a few nights where I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t fall back to sleep. Started my bedtime routine earlier which might have helped. Got my normal workout in plus a walk and kept my calories reasonable and balanced. Have been trying to tame the sweet monster and so far have kept things under control for the last few days.
3/22: 130.3 - Did not sleep well at all. Was able to get my workout in but I didn’t go for a walk since it was quite stormy outside. Ended up doing some vigorous housework that I normally dread (mopping the hardwood floors) instead which helped me close my move ring on my Apple Watch. Still working on leftovers from St. Patrick’s day and kept the sweets minimal.
Total round weight loss/gain to date from EO last round: - 2.6 pounds6 -

*3/21 128.0 Thank goodness for multiple log sites- I had messed up a day!
3/22 127.5 Chia pudding was quite tasty and more is “started” in the refrigerator. This could become my “dessert” when I want something sweet.
@quiltingjaine somehow I never saw your 3/20 tag. Chia seeds are good digestively, good fiber and good iron. I have not tried chia pudding. Maybe I should check that out.
edit: figured out why I missed the tag. I am not "Smoda" but "Smoda61" instead. I didn't initially notice the difference.0 -

This is becoming disheartening. I have started on a new medication recently. I was trying to not blame the medication but it is well known for causing weight gain. I can feel I am losing motivation. But one quote I need to keep repeating to myself isThe real work starts when you want to stop.

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.

Good luck everyone.4 -
Starting up exercise and losing weight again after a long, forced hiatus, so...this feels like a good way to start things off!
Round 217
daily goals - 30 min of physical activity - 2 cups of herbal tea - outside for 30 min
3/22/23 weight goal: lose 4 lbs
Day, Weight, Comment
3/13 - 260.4 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside.
3/14 - 256.4 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside.
3/15 - 257.2 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside. This has been a hard day. My eldest kiddo is sick and I have literally been going on 2-3 hours of sleep for 3 nights in a row, now. Here's hoping I can get some more sleep tonight! >_<
3/16 - 258.2 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
3/17 - 260 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
3/18 - 260.2 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside - well, at least now I know why weight is going on. Hello, Aunt Flo, hope you are done quickly enough to meet my goal!
3/19 - 259.2 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
3/20 - 260 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
3/21 - 261 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
3/22 -259.6 30 min activity, 2 cups tea, 30 min outside
Didn't meet my weight goal, but after being unable to do any regular activity for more than a couple days in a row, for a few years now, managing to consistently exercise is huge. So I'm still feeling pretty good, and happy to try again for the next round and see if I can keep improving.6 -
I am about 11 kg along the way to lose 32 kg. I use multiple tape measurements (cm) around my body because they aren't affected by salt intake. Apparently I've been trying to lose weight since September 2012, the last time I was at goal weight. Let's see if stopping eating sugary food is going to change things.

Hi everyone! My names Brad, 27yo, 6ft3', from the UK - I'm back (new mfp account) after almost 4 years!! I went from 145kg down to 90kg last time I was here, but now after LIFE, grief etc etc I'm back up to 120kg (BOO) and 1 year away from my wedding. I'm hoping you can all help me keep on track!
Round 217
3/13 - 120.2kg / 264.5lbs / 18st 13lbs - No weigh day (started 3/14)
3/14 - 120.2kg / 264.5lbs / 18st 13lbs - This was inevitable, I'm back into most of my fat clothes (I now own everything from a small to an XXL), my routine is awful and blah blah blah. Today is the start, lessss go!
3/15 - 118.6kg / 261.5lbs / 18st 10lbs - first week is always my favourite, day 1 of calorie deficit complete and couldn't be happier. Time to keep up this consistency!!
3/16 - 118.0kg / 260.2 lbs / 18st 9lbs - Calorie deficit starting to feel a bit easier. Earl days though. Scales going the right direction so I'm happy...
3/17 - 117.7kg / 259.5 lbs / 18st 8lbs - Wow, that was a struggle. God I was craving a big greasy pizza, eurgh. Ended up eating Melon and Mango to stave off the hunger. Still, the scale is trending the right direction.. Although I fully expect a few bumps in the road to be coming soon...
3/18 - 118.1kg / 260.4 lbs / 18st 9lbs - Damn it, eating was good through the day but I had a takeaway, can't complain about 0.4 too much.
3/19 - 118.5kg / 261.3lbs / 18st 10lbs - I just fall apart at weekends I swear...
3/20 - 118.0kg / 260.2 lbs / 18st 9lbs - Back on track, I need to try and remain disciplined over the weekend, but it's hard when out with friends and family I swear. Also St Patricks Day meant I had to drink Guinness... So I blame that haha. Anyway, Monday morning now and back to it, LESSSS GO!
3/21 - 117.3kg / 258.5lbs / 18st 6.6lbs - Lovely jubbly, good calorie day yesterday and it shows. Hopefully a few more good weeks and I'll be able to fit back into my running clothes, but for now I'm content walking.
3/22 - 117.1kg / 258.2lbs / 18st 6.2lbs - Surprised with this, I had a very bad day. But skipping tea and getting my steps in must have helped.
Start - 120.2kg / 264.5lbs / 18st 13lbs
Finish - 117.1kg / 258.2lbs / 18st 6.2lbs
Change - (-3.1kg)4 -
SW RND 217
3/13: 158.3kg (349lbs)
3/14: 157.9kg (348.1lbs)
This is my first day joining the challenge! My goal at the moment is to eat regular meals and not binge eat. I've joined Jane Plan, and am adding in a lot of extra calories as with my current weight the calories would be far too low, but they're all the suggested added fruit/veggies/dairy, plus some Huel. Averaging 1600-1700cals a day, and having the regular meals planned out for me is working wonders to avoid binge eating!
3/15 157.0kg (346.1lbs)
I am obese and in the first couple of weeks of a big lifestyle change, so I'm seeing big losses on a day-to-day basis. I'd really like to celebrate this but I have such a damaged relationship with food and weightloss that I'm contantly monitoring myself and telling myself to prepare mentally for the losses to slow down! I'm aiming for 1kg loss a week, but it's taking 2-3 days to lose that at the moment. I'm proud of the consistency I've had with eating my regular meals and snacks and not binging!

I'm honestly shocked I didn't see an increase, had a somewhat controlled binge yesterday! Have just immediately put it behind me and focused on making the right decisions today, I'm not letting myself spiral!
3/17 156.0kg (343.9 lbs)
3/18 155.6kg (343.0 lbs)
I forgot to post yesterday but had a really productive day, definitely back on track! Out for food with friends this evening but have planned for it and it will be within my calorie goal.
3/19 156.0kg (343.9lbs) not quite the right direction! I did eat out with friends (which also meant eating late) yesterday, also going to be eating out today again as I'm taking my mum out for a meal for mother's day (UK!). Hoping that getting back on track on Monday will mean I see a loss in the last couple of days of the challenge.
3/20 156.0kg (343.9lbs) I'm okay with staying the same for today, indulged in a lamb curry and naan bread yesterday, along with a pint of cider, so happy to be not seeing an increase! Here's hoping I'll end the week at 155.8kg or below, would be more than happy with a 2.5kg loss!
3/21 156.0kg (343.9lbs)
3/22 156.4kg (344.8lbs) A little late checking in for the final day! Slightly frustrated at the second half of this ten day period as I completely stalled and am conscious of the fact I definitely gave into stress eating. Overall though, I lost 1.9kg (4.2lbs) in 10 days, which is an achievement! Hoping for more steady progress over the next 10 days4 -
3/13: 239.8 (+2.0), BF%=33.4 (+0.5).
3/14: 241.0 (+1.2), BF% 33.6 (+0.2). Daylight saving is kicking my @$$. As was my weekend (3 days of eating/drinking that went outside of my norm). I'm going to continue to weigh-in every day, and I'll post when I can. My motivation is definitely lower when I'm not "doing well" (subjectively), but I'm going to get back into the habit of posting no matter what. It's what's best for me, and it's what I need to do.
3/15: 239.6 (-1.4), BF%=33.3 (-0.3). Better. I want to say that I'm going to commit to never seeing 240 again, but that would be stupid. Goals are cool, but internal ultimatums have not worked out super-well for me in the past. Kinder. Softer. More flexible. More understanding. If I'm making a commitment, it's to being here. That's it. I slept more last night, which is good. I ate a bit better, but still got to snacking in the evening (though I had a bit more control than I have had in the past). I'm on-call at work until 7/21 @ 0700, which means that I may have to "rollout" at any time from 5pm to 7am on weekdays, and 24 hours on the weekend. This means no drinking for a week. Or very little. My "goal" is zero alcoholic beverages until next Tuesday. My other goal is no drinking on weekdays (only on Fri/Sa... and rarely on Sunday). So that means no alcohol for the remainder of this challenge. I wonder what this will help me learn about myself...
3/16/23: 239.0 (-0.6), BF%=33.2 (-0.1). Trending in the right direction. The weekend is coming up, so I'm going to start thinking about it. I have dinner out with friends on Saturday. I'm going to try to make a healthier choice (regarding food), I'm not going to have more than one drink, I am NOT going to pick at my wife's food (or accept her offers when she inevitably makes them). I'm still snacking a bit too much after dinner. I'm going to try to limit myself to a cup of coffee after dinner (which is a treat for me).
3/17/23: 235.4 (-3.6), BF%=32.4 (-0.8). I love raspberry jelly doughnuts. A coworker brought doughnuts to work yesterday, offered me some, and there was a raspberry jelly doughnut available. My "rule" normally (when I'm trying to be healthy) is that I will only indulge in something when I REALLY want it. I REALLY WANTED IT. Then I thought... I didn't really make this choice. If someone would have asked me if I wanted a doughnut (if they were going out to pick some up, for instance), I would have said no. I get to make my own choices. I said no, and I stayed away from that doughnut all day... other than going to look at it one time.
3/18/23: 235.6 (+0.2), BF%=32.5 (+0.1). I got a little "snacky" last night. I was about to say that hummus is a hard snack for me, but that would only be true if I did not have means to measure things out (which I do). It's amazing how little I question some of the things I tell myself. Being mindful (aware) of those thoughts is fun. Or at least interesting. I'm going to measure my hummus next time. Tonight is dinner out with friends, and then we're going to a bar to watch the UCLA basketball game. I would not drink tonight if I were not going out, particularly since I'm still on-call for work... so I'm not going to drink. I love alcohol (even in a relatively healthy way, I think), but we're gonna stay on a break until at least Tuesday, which means I'll likely be on a break until next Thursday night (my workweek is M-Th). I'm going to clean out my garage for the next few hours, which will involve moving some things around and "some" heavy lifting, which should get my heart rate up. Wish me luck!
3/19/23: 236.6 (+1.0), BF%=32.6(+0.1). I'm not loving the numbers, but I was able to eat within reason last night (out with friends), and I did not have any alcohol. It helped that none of my friends were drinking, either, but I would normally have still had a drink or two with dinner. Venturing into TMI territory, I think my weigh-in will be better tomorrow, as today I had some post weigh-in activities that would likely make things a bit "lighter." Getting used to the idea of weighing myself every day, and not freaking out by any single day (no matter which way it goes). Still struggling to get in some exercise, but there are extenuating circumstances. Sort of. I have a rowing machine in the house that has been neglected. Maybe I'll give it a spin today.
3/20/23: 234.4 (-2.2), BF%=32.2 (-0.4). Really noticing right now how little food I need to feel satisfied. I'm not starving myself, but I'm trying to focus on eating only when I'm hungry. I need to remember how well this works.
3/21/23: 234.6 (+0.2), BF%=32.2 (0.0). I was pretty good yesterday. There are little fluctuations that happen all the time. I'm happy with my progress so far since I've been back. I'm not talking about my weight, by the way. I'm most happy that I haven't skipped a weigh-in, and I've posted every day. If I keep working, the weight will drop; I know this.[/quote]
3/22/23: 234.6 (0.0), BF%=32.2 (0.0). Not bad... I'll take it.4 -

I have found a very good pizza substitute at Culinary Lion. Even my DH likes it. I make the crust and cut it into 4 pieces (that are 2 servings each) and freeze it. When I want pizza I take a square out, warm it, add desired toppings and heat. It’s very good but does include a lot of cheese. YUM You could skip cheese on top to compensate.

3/23 216.1 Waaaaaaaa my son is gone! It was a great 2 week visit. Now I have April to concentrate and refocus before heading to Canada for a visit with Momma and family. Daddy died May 12th last year and I want to be with Momma during this time. She is quite active for her 80 years and I hope to be able to keep up with her. She has never driven (daddy took her everywhere) so she now walks wherever she needs to be. She will keep me focused! Didn't make my 12000 steps but think I removed all sodium in tears. Sigh.
