65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 222 (my 153rd). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine you are a star!
A good start to this round; back down under 140 this morning, so I aim to stay under this and hopefully lose another pound. I am fed up with repeating myself and berating myself for messing up, it’s time I really got back on track. After all I am what I eat in more ways than one, my whole demeanour is totally different when I am happy with myself!!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 taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 130. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

RND 222 SW – 139.8
5/2 139.8 – 9.45 miles walked yesterday, just over 50% of exercise calories eaten back.
5/3 140.4 - 9.23 miles walked, 85 % of exercise calories eaten back. A tad disappointed at the uptick over 140, but hoping it is just a normal fluctuation.
5/4 140.8 – 9.23 miles walked, 20% exercise calories eaten back, this must start a downward trend soon !! Happy Star Wars day !!
5/5 140.8 – no structured walking as child minding little DGS, hence 500 calories over.
5/6 139.8 - 6.72 miles walked, 270 calories over (indulged in 2 adult beverages, Pimms & wine).
5/7 139.6 - 9.41 miles yesterday, down to the sea front along to the far end of Colwyn Bay, returned via Penryn. Did indulge in an ice cream, ⅔ exercise calories eaten back. Recorded the highlights of the Coronation to watch on our return, long live the king!
5/8 139.4 - a wonderful walk to Llandudno, along the promenade to Happy Valley at the bottom of the Great Orme, a Coronation cream tea and then back; 11.6 miles. 80% exercise calories eaten back. Today is as forecast to be wet wet wet all day, not a pleasant journey home ahead 🥲, still, we've had the most amazing couple of days so can't grumble.
5/9 140.4? - 6.752 miles walked; managed to get a rain free window after we had travelled home & unpacked the caravan. 95% exercise calories eaten back.
5/10 139.8 – 8.28 miles walked, luckily before the horrendous thunder storm; so glad I was not out in that torrential prolonged downpour! 30% exercise calories eaten back.
5/11 139.8 – 9.45 miles walked, just less than half of exercise calories eaten back. Pleased with how this round has gone; a pound lost since end of last and a whole binge free round, Coronation celebration was controlled. Yes proud of myself for a change!!
12 binge free days.
👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE & I AM WHAT I EAT!!!!!

Thanks everyone!8 -
I'm going to join in. Personally I've had a bad two years and put on 70lbs, I am only 5ft 2".
I don't have a specific goal of pounds to lose this round, just want to get my 10K steps in per day and stick to my calories. Lets see how it goes....
02/05: 215.4lbs
03/05: 213.8lbs Had a good day yesterday. Drank my water and hit my 10k steps. Stayed within calories.
04/05: 213lbs Stayed within calories but didn't hit my 10k steps so I'm happy with this drop.
05/05: 213.2lbs. Stayed within calories, drank my water and hit my steps. Not sure why slight upturn but its nothing major.
06/05: 211.8. Hit my steps, drank water and stayed within calories
07/05: 212.4 gave into temptation and over indulged on biscuits.
08/05: 213.4. Don't know why I self sabotage all the time. Went for a hike yesterday, it killed! shinsplints are killing me today. But ate two croissants when letting the dog out for a wee in the middle of the night. Don't know why I do this! Half the time I barely remember, but every time the dog goes out for a wee I end up snacking. Don't know how I will reach 10k steps today with skin splints and blisters on the back of my heels...
09/05: 213.2. Managed to finish the day just 1k under my step goal which isn't too bad. But fell victim to the snacking when the dog wees again. I swear, I don't even realize I'm doing it! Such a bummer after being totally on plan all day. My challenge for today/tonight is no wee wee snacks!
10/5: 213.6. No wee snacks! Cant really take the credit for it though, she didn't need a wee during the night! 1k under my steps, slightly over on calories. Am having to buy my lunch in the canteen in work every day as my husband did the grocery shopping and didnt get any of my staples that I take to work with me. So far this week I've got the meat option with a big side salad... although yesterday it was lasagna... calorie heavy.
11/05: 213.4. Up and down the same little bit every day. Got my steps in and drank my water. Had vol au vents for lunch yesterday so probably not the best choice!3 -
RND 222:
5/02: 226
> Missed 221 cause I missed a couple of dates and didn't feel ok to start from the middle, but kept tracking daily. Food was ok, didn't miss a workout. Water is way up, barely any soda, just need to figure out my sleep as well somehow. But the goal this week will be to just keep maintaining those habits.
5/03: 228.8
> I have no idea what that jump was. It was a good day overall. Proper food, proper workout, proper sleep.
5/04: 226.4
> Good day. Did some walking cause it's supposed to be a rest day. It's starting to get easier to stay on track.
5/05: 227
> I think my scale is dead. I always go twice just in case cause mental thing, weighed in a few times this morning, went between 221 to 227, different number each time. Time for a new one I guess. It's pretty old, but I can't be going up and down like that, and if I didn't go up a second time would have been freaked out tomorrow seeing another weird jump again if I just stuck with the 221. Tracking with the highest one. That's an issue.
5/06: 224
> Gonna have to stick to the current scale and trust it as it is for a bit until I can afford a new one. At this point I just hope it's correct and that I soon start seeing change in clothes as well so I can rest my mind. But good day, walked a ton, and still sticking to a workout so yay
5/07: 223.2
> Good day. Overall weekly nutrition has been good as well. This is really helping to not have an out of sight out of mind moment and to stay mindful. Still not seeing a visible change, can't wait for that. I think it will be a game changer.
5/08: 224.6
>Up, down, up, down, ugh.
5/09: 225.2
> I'm just not going to care for the numbers. I'm doing all I should be so I'm sure they'll catch up at some point
5/10: 226.2
> It's been a great week and I honestly thought it would finish stronger. But oh well. Haven't allowed it to demotivate me. Still haven't skipped a workout and only have had one carby day. It will be fine.
5/11: 225.4
> Welp, not as low as I was hoping, but it's at least sticking to going down even with the fluctuations. My trend line is still in the right direction so hopefully the next round will show some more progress. But screw numbers, I'm starting to build the right habits and it's getting easier. So I'll be focusing on that and counting it as a win.

5/2 147.2 (trend 148.2) Yesterday I had a bit of a day off and just enjoyed myself. I met up with my mum, brother and his family, and we went to a village May Day fair as it was my nephew's 3rd birthday. I didn't have much control over what food and drinks I had as my brother brought a picnic for us all, so I had a big cheese sandwich, crisps, birthday cake, and coffee with sugar. Walking was at toddler-pace so didn't count as exercise! I did play football with my older nephew for a bit, which helped get my heart rate up at least. I'm fully responsible for getting home and eating a mini muffin and some Bournville though! Fresh start today, OH is away until next Thursday, so I have no excuses for overeating, being lazy, or skipping workouts.
I am determined to leave the 150s behind this round and never see them again!
STEPS 8,581
5/3 147.0 (trend 148.0) I had a slow morning, then made it out for a 6 mile hike. Arrived home really hungry but managed to avoid stuffing my face. I had a little snooze as I've been lacking sleep recently then went to the gym for a lower body session. Didn't manage to do my 3 minutes of planking at the end as I started to feel dizzy. I'm glad to see a drop on the scale, but to be honest I was expecting a bit more as I was well under calories yesterday. Maybe water retention from the training as it's been a week since I last did a leg workout.
STEPS 16,161
5/4 146.8 (trend 147.9) Had a day off the gym as it was sunny and lovely out so I went for a 9.5 mile hike instead. Feeling quite stiff today, I have no idea how musicsax manages to do so much walking every day! Hats off to you! Calories below target but short on protein again.
STEPS 20,759
5/5 147.0 (trend 147.8) Felt really hungry all day but just about managed to stay within calories. 1.45hrs at the gym doing upper body in the morning, then a 2.5 mile walk around town in the evening. Feeling really stiff again today so maybe I'm holding onto some water. I really need a drop if I'm going to make my goal this round.
STEPS 8,635
5/6 145.8 (trend 147.5) I went clothes shopping, needed new gym clothes and some summery bits but I couldn't find anything good anywhere, which was disappointing. I don't like online shopping as it's so hard to find anything that works with my figure and I am not good at returning things on time, but I guess I'll have to give it a try. I was happy to see I look totally different in the changing room mirrors, compared to how I looked in January when I was 20lbs heavier. I also think the weight training has given me a much better shape compared to when I was this weight before, just through calorie restriction. I plan to take some progress photos when I get down to 142lbs so I can do a side by side with ones I have taken before in 2021.
STEPS 4,721
5/7 145.2 (trend 147.2) I was quite confused at this scale weight this morning, I was expecting to definitely be up at least a pound. Not much tmi for 2 days and I ate loads of fibre yesterday plus a whole bag of salted microwave popcorn to myself, so I should have had water retention. It was a very rainy day and I woke up feeling blah and didn't feel like doing anything at all. I basically stayed on the sofa all day and didn't wear my step tracker. Not a great mindset to be in, I need to get my act together today.
STEPS???
5/8 145.8 (trend 147.0) 1hr lower body workout in the morning, then gardening for a few hours, tackling an overgrown phormium and lugging bags of gravel around. Went for a 4 mile walk in the evening. I snacked on houmous, veggies and crisps for dinner, bit of a binge on the crisps to be honest and a few gin and tonics, whoops. I think it's because it was such a lovely, sunny day and smelling all the barbecues in the air and seeing all the pics of people having community coronation tea parties and picnics around the country made me want to join in!
STEPS 15,300
5/9 145.6 (trend 146.8) 3.5 mile walk in the morning but no gym, I spent the day cleaning instead. More cleaning and housework to do today, I've let the house get into a bit of a state and it needs a really deep clean, so that should burn a few calories I hope!
STEPS 15,006
5/10 147.4 (trend 146.9) Yikes! I'm hoping this nearly 2lb spike is just the result of having a higher carb day than usual and eating nearly half a jar of gherkins last night! My eyes felt really sore and grainy this morning, which is usually a sign that I've had too much salt. Didn't get out for any exercise yesterday but I was cleaning and decluttering all day so I wasn't inactive at least. I had quite a large appetite all day and had to really draw on my will power to not go over calories. I'm higher than my start weight for this round, after several days of being comfortably below my goal, so I'm feeling a bit disappointed, but it is what it is. I'll try and drink lots of water and have a lower carb day today to see if I can pull it back a bit.
STEPS 7,909
5/11 145.6 (trend 146.7) Phew, I'm glad yesterday's weight was just a blip. We had a very wet day here, glorious in the morning but it didn't last long and I didn't get out for a walk in time. Did 1.5hrs upper body weights and finished with 3 mins of planks. I still can't hold for the full 3 mins, the max I can do is 2 mins after 2.5 months of practice, but I'll keep going. Once I can do 3 mins, I'll add in some dynamic plank movements. I got a haircut at last, I hate having my hair cut as I can never find a style I like so always end up feeling frumpy and older, sigh, I want one of those makeover gurus to take me under their wing because I feel a bit lost with my style and skincare etc. I had a high fibre day but nowhere near enough protein again. 1.6lbs lost this round, yay!

I love that I freaking forgot to weigh in the 2nd day of the challenge for me😂 It’s incredible really. However, I stayed below calories and had over 10k steps yesterday. We’ll try again tomorrow 😅 It’s not really tempting to step on the scale now after eating and drinking, no point in that when I weigh in on an empty stomach.
5/8 - 163.5 (—)
Stayed within my calorie goal. It’s bothering me that I can’t move as much as I usually do right now. I have injured my back and it limits me quite a lot at the moment. I’m eating less calories now that I’m less active though.
5/9 - 163.5 (--)
Wow, the exact same weight again. It's almost impressive
Stayed below calories. But man, it's hard for my body to go under this weight. I feel like this weight (+- 5lbs) is my "set point weight". It is extremely hard to lose below it, even on a super strict diet and workout routine. Going to focus on increasing my non-exercise activity. Getting in over 12K steps the last days of the challenge, in addition to my workouts.
5/10 - 161.5 (-2.0)
There we go 🎉 Goal for the round reached! Stayed below calories and got in about 13K steps yesterday.
5/11 - 160.7 (-2.8)
Almost 3 pounds this round. Really pleased with that 🙌🏻 Had about 15K steps yesterday and stayed below calories. Going to continue getting in over 10K steps everyday.

Good Morning
My whyI am playing a game with myself & setting little daily goals of losing 0.35lbs per day and using those goals to help me stay motivated and on track is a way of fasting that I saw in another group. Using my bathroom scale as a weight loss tool works for me. There are days that my weight increases by 2 pounds or more, and I understand that this is mainly water weight, and can go away as quickly as it came. That is why there are times that my daily goal and my weight that day are pounds apart. I am not expecting to lose 2 pounds of body fat by the next day. But it is possible to lose 2 pounds of water weight by the next day, so I stick to my goals. If it takes longer than one day to lose that water weight, I extend my fast for another day. Sticking to my plan, I will reach my 1st goal weight of 172 pounds on September 16 2023. This will put me in the overweight weight range which I have not seen since 2007. At that point I will decrease the daily amount to 0.2lbs per day to get to my ultimate goal of 140 by my birthday in February. I also have a cruise booked for my birthday & one of the tours offers a mini photoshoot. What a great opportunity to be at my goal & get semi professional pictures on the beach!
I did an extended fast on April 9th that lasted almost 9 days. That got me back on track after Easter.
Round 218 SW 232.4 EW 231lbs (-1.4)
Round 219 EW 229lbs (-2)
Round 220 220.2lbs (-8.8) (Extended fast)

Weightlifting 5x
RND 221 EW 220.6
5/2 Goal 219.3/Actual 219.8
Moving forward from the last round. I wasn’t able to fast yesterday because my stomach hurt. I wasn’t feeling well so my activity was low. I did work a full day. Today I will concentrate on drinking enough water & I will attempt to continue my fast. I am still behind. I guess I will see how I feel after my coffee & go from there.
5/3 Goal 218.6/Actual 219.4
Still not feeling great, I was up for 2 hours during the night with a very sore stomach. Hopefully this passes soon because I need energy next week to work since the weather will be better. I won’t fast when I am feeling crappy. I just don’t want the added discomfort but maybe it is exactly what my body needs to clear this gastrointestinal virus or whatever is going on. I don’t usually get stuff like this so I don’t even know how to deal with it. I know people usually resort to the BRATs diet for situations like this but none of that fits my macros. I feel like oatmeal would be soothing but I think it is more a comfort food which doesn’t work for my food is fuel new way of life.
5/4 Goal 218.3/Actual 219.2
Slowly, ever so slowly creeping down in the right direction. I slept through the night (thanks to gravol) but still feel nauseous this morning. I ate pasta yesterday which did make my stomach feel settled, but I would rather not eat that. I won’t fast again even though I have been behind for several days until I feel better. As long as the gap stays small I know I can catch up quickly.
5/5 Goal 217.9/Actual 219.6
This is how easy it is to get off track from my goals. I have been working every day. I haven’t been feeling great. So with working & being sick I have not gone to the gym. I have eaten some foods that do not fit my macros, while I have logged most things & calories have been reasonable I am not meeting my targets. Today is a planned “treat day” for cinco de mayo, but since I am feeling better I will go to the gym. I am just having Mexican take out but no margaritas. Tomorrow I will start another extended fast.
5/6 Goal 217.6/Actual 219.9
Well yesterday went as planned & will continue today. I have leftovers that I am not willing to give up so another treat day on tap followed by a 5-7 day fast starting tomorrow. I have logged everything today & I am sure my weight will be up but I know it will come right back down. No big deal.
5/7 Goal 217.2/Actual 220.9
Wow look at that! Being tired, eating junk, just destroyed 2 weeks of progress 🤦♀️. Will I learn from it? Probably not. I will just use fasting as a tool to get back where I want. I have not felt good this past week & neither eating healthy nor the junk from the past 2 days have helped. Hopefully fasting will kick whatever it is out.
5/8 Goal 216.8/Actual 220
Still not feeling great. I threw up a few times before bed last night. I planned to start my fast in the afternoon but decided to eat supper. I wish I knew what was up with my stomach. Hopefully this week will be the reset it needs. I may start some probiotics when I end my fast & I may eat carnivore for a couple of weeks just to see if it is food related. Maybe eliminating stuff is what I need to do. I also added a new supplement which I won’t be taking this week.
5/9 Goal 216.5/Actual 219
Well, now my body is getting smarter. It didn’t release a ton of water on the first day of fasting. I think that will be a good thing as I will have to give back less after I am done. I felt better yesterday, my stomach didn’t hurt. How is it that there are only 2 days left of this round? Time is passing sooo fast right now.
5/10 Goal 216.2/Actual 218.4
I actually forgot to post this morning. That is scary to me, since this is one of the things I need to do to stay focused & on track. I ended up eating supper yesterday. I was so tired & that made me unproductive at work so I couldn’t risk another day of no sleep. I am still behind so I will probably just have supper again. I don’t really like OMAD because I feel if I am eating I should be getting adequate protein & it is hard to keep calories low. I gotta figure it out before I get too far behind. I know this is not impossible I am not willing to accept defeat yet.
5/11 Goal 215.8/Actual 216.3
I am very happy with my weight today. That is the whoosh I have been waiting for! I ate a good supper yesterday, had a decent sleep & lost 4.3 lbs this round!!! That’s amazing to me. I am off my target but still so close. I did not exercise except for daily puppy walks. I am having a hard time getting to the gym after work. I think maybe I will just accept it & when things slow down in a few weeks I will go. For now, I think I will just be thankful that my game is working & that I have the tools to keep at it. This round was a roller coaster on the scale & emotionally. The accountability of the day 10 challenges is really helping. Thanks @quiltingjaine. On to the next one!

5/11 - 155.8 - I got dressed and weighed after this to ensure the scale wasn't stuck. It's not - fully dressed I do weigh more, as expected. I probably should've been lower but BF made spaghetti and had me make baguettes so he could make garlic bread....hello again garlic salt that is mostly salt...I do feel a tad bit puffy and I'm okay with staying the same weight despite being puffy - it shows I probably should be lower. Plus, I hit round goal of 155.x despite the salt so that's a huge win! BF said we are leaving tomorrow at about 730-8am so I'm knocking out my C25K W7D3 today with back to back days of running. I don't expect much from this run other than to have it completed due to the limited rest. I might aim for a quick yoga tomorrow morning and/or walk the pups since they'll be stuck inside between storms and BigBro working this weekend while we're gone. I'm waking up at the same time as normal so I shouldn't have any issue checking in before we take off. I'll be back Monday morning to check in with a damage report. See all of you next round!
Previous Day's Comments5/02 - No worries -- DOMS and/or sodium. I know dinner had quite a bit of salt included in it so I'm not too surprised if it's that. Wouldn't also surprise me if my muscles were holding on to a little extra from yesterday after a week off from workouts. Just because I don't feel sore, doesn't mean I'm not retaining anything in that regards. I am exceptionally sleepy this morning. The dogs and I had a rough night (they had a rough night and being a light sleeper, I was dragged into it involuntarily). I think I'll focus on yoga today as my "strength workout" since I am so sleepy. Maybe a little wake up one this morning and a little bedtime routine to help relax me before I curl up to read tonight? I'll aim for both, but will certainly knock out this morning's. Hopefully, too, a nice after dinner walk to help add movement for both the dogs and I.
5/03 - Cheese, sodium, and BF sabotaged me hahaha!. He wanted to clean up the drink counter. There were 3 bottles with 1-2 drinks worth left in them. He had 3 drinks all night (small ones) and he made me a vodka soda (sparkling water - which I already had open to drink by itself prior to this brilliant clean up plan). I wasn't planning to drink, but I had the calories and I figured enjoying ONE with BF won't hurt. I had an unsweetened sparkling water, as usual, open but he prefers the sweetened. Only he discovered the sweetened ones taste horrible in his drink of preference so he took my unsweetened and gave me his sweetened one. Unfortunately, I realized just earlier this morning after researching - the sweetened sparkling water from HEB is artificially sweetened with sucralose. Between the cheese (which always causes bloat) from enchiladas last night, the alcohol (which disturbs my normal digestion), fizziness (which usually doesn't impact me in the small amounts I drink it but it could help contribute in this situation so I'm mentioning it), and then realizing that the artificial sweetener CAN indeed cause bloating or digestive issues, I'm not surprised I'm up. I look so bloated, especially at and below the belly button. I feel heavy in the intestine area, too. Unsure dinner tonight (hopefully healthier/more balanced) but I have leftover boiled chicken thighs. Thinking burrito bowl of sorts? I don't have much by way of veg (frozen potato/pepper mix I think) due to not being able to go to the store to stock up so I'm limited on including those. I'll figure something out that isn't terribly unhealthy. I do have one or two servings of fruit left to make my protein smoothie should I get hungry early enough after my run to have breakfast and not simply wait until lunch. If there are 2 servings, the other will be for Friday after my run. I'm off work Friday so I'll be headed to the store to stock up then and will likely need a breakfast that can hold me over until after my errands. Okay, it's bright enough for a run. 10 min run, 2 min walk, 10 min run and done today! Starting Friday it is straight runs, no walking breaks. Oof. Hopefully I can manage this (physically I've proven I can, mentally I struggle still). Once I'm back I'll catch up on all the posts I've missed between yesterday and this morning
5/04 - May the Fourth be with you! Cheese dropped but sodium didn't. I requested garlic mashed potatoes with my steak for dinner and had no idea just how much sodium gets put into it. BF uses the garlic salt (and claims it's 95% garlic, 5% salt when, in fact, it's the opposite...sigh, there's no convincing him otherwise). He put a ton of garlic salt on the steaks, the amount in the mashed potatoes made me want to gag, AND EVEN THE CORN. No wonder I'm always bloated! I'm not a salt person, either. I don't add it to anything, really so my cooking all day vs his cooking dinner is a huge difference. I'll need to pay more attention to those things going forward if I hope to avoid the bloat. I'm about to take the dogs for a walk this morning as my legs are very sore from yesterday's run up those hills. I'm thinking, if I have time, I'll do a quick morning yoga before I hop on work or I'll do some yoga at my lunch break before we head to Thirsty Thursday. Also a debate I'll have this morning: order a chicken wrap and make myself stop at 1/2 a wrap OR eat before I leave and hope I don't get munchy and order something because I'm the only one not eating while there. I'll log both and see the impact on my day before I decide. I think I'll skip drinks, if I can, while out. Especially since at this time, I'm not sure if we're coming home to cook or if we're going to Fam's to eat after.
5/05 - FamWife cooked dinner - crock pot beef ragu (first time I've ever had that! She made it with spaghetti noodles this time like a bougie spaghetti but she said she's made it before to use in her lasagna. Yum!) She also had the caesar salad kit - not the healthiest, but it's greens on the plate. Overall, it wasn't a totally unhealthy meal and light on salt! I spent about 10 minutes taking the last 4 bites of dinner trying to eat at a painfully slow pace. I'm trying to do that now - I leave several bites on my plate and eat them very slowly to allow my body to say "I'm content, you can stop now!" I did finish the plate, but I also chugged water. The water made me feel overly full for about 5 minutes and then I was satisfied. A win! Today is going to be crazy. Apparently FamWife is in this MOPs thing (Mothers of Preschoolers but it's moms off all ages helping each other out and getting together). As a "stepmom" I'm invited to tonight's "Mom Prom" and it's 90s theme. My 90s grunge/punk is showing in the fact that I have 2 different outfits that fit that profile already in my closet haha! It starts at 7 but the boys and kids (BF, FamHub, both kids) doing dinner so I guess I'm on my own for dinner? I'll figure it out. Today is 22 minute run which I'll do once I give my body time to settle after this coffee. Grocery run this morning and then I suppose just hanging out until "Mom Prom"
5/06 - Oh my goodness! Though I can't say I'm too shocked. "Mom Prom" last night was lots and lots of movement. MFP said I had an extra 1,433 calories from exercise I could eat and still hit my deficit goals. Fitbit said I burned over 3,000 calories total through the day. Lots of dancing to old 90's songs and absolutely no sitting. The only time I sat yesterday was driving errands, then driving to the Mom Prom and home and when eating lunch and dinner. 16,272 steps and 7.34 miles. Whew. I'm sore and exhausted today. In an hour and a half we have Fire Department classroom training followed by hands-on. Not sure what or how intense hands-on training will be - I suppose it partially depends on how many people are available for it. I plan to eat some eggs and toast beforehand to ensure I have enough fuel in the tank for it. Especially since it lasts until about 12-1pm so lunch will be later than my normal as well. Depending on the training, I should get plenty of steps in this morning and it'll count as a "functional fitness" workout.
5/07 - This is 100% last minute late night pizza and eating near maintenance. I simply hope the bloat and such drops off as much as possible for tomorrow, I have a weekly weigh in for 12 weeks and I'm up nearly a pound from last Monday as of right now. I'd like to stay the same, if not lower - no increases! Pizza was our fault- we didn't pull anything from the freezer to thaw in time for dinner. The last minute late night? We had a fire call right as I was making the dough (it was done, just needed to be shaped) so we left to go assist. Small grass fire, but it pushed dinner back and we didn't finish eating until about 8-8:30pm. Oof. I did stay up and march in place to hit 10k steps, though. It is my new May goal to do so. I missed May 1st and 2nd, but I'm marching in place before bed to get it now. Once I post I'm taking these pups for a nice morning walk. Not sure plans today other than my walk and my plan to stay mindful and careful of my intake with plenty of water. Going to be a warm one, too, so extra water is important.
5/08 - I'm actually shocked. I figured, at best, I'd still be in the 157.x range. I guess the lactose pills helped more than I anticipated and my efforts all day yesterday, minus dinner, to push water and be mindful paid off. I'd love to see 155.x again by end of round and I think that is more than doable if I stick to my goals. Today (and Wednesday and Friday) are 25 minute straight runs. I'm not sure I'm mentally (or physically) ready to take on these hills, but I need to do it. This week is 25 minutes, next week is 28 minutes (3x) and the following week is the final with 30 minutes (3x). From there, I'll just be running to maintain until the 5k itself, probably repeating the 30 minute runs to focus on increasing distance (I won't hit 5k in 30 minutes at my current pace - I'm closer to 40 minutes right now. My fastest ever was 37:11) or running for distance instead of time. Unsure the plan for lunch and dinner, but I've got carrots and spinach plus I stocked up on frozen veg again so I can piece something together fairly easily for lunch. Goal to hit 10k steps will be easier with the run involved but, if weather holds, I'll try to take the pups out after dinner for a walk. Especially as it's supposed to rain/storm the remainder of the week if the forecast is correct (it was supposed to storm Thursday-Sunday but nothing, not even rain, so I'm not 100% sure it really will this week)
5/09 - I was very careful yesterday to not only hit my 10k steps but also stay in my calorie goals. I ate back all but 81 calories of my day's exercise calories but I did a short walk after dinner with the dogs and didn't eat after that so it gave more of a buffer but I didn't see how much extra it gave me. We had storms last night and the pups were freaking out so I had a rough night of sleep. I ended up snoozing an extra hour, waking up a few minutes before my 630 alarm went off which gave me time to take a morning walk with the pups before work. We got home just in time for it to start raining again and my work alarm to go off. Today is up in the air - if the forecast is correct and it storms this evening, Godson's t-ball game will be cancelled (and no after dinner walk), if the storms go around us, dinner is up in the air. I think the game is at 7pm so we may eat at home before heading out but there's still possibility we will head into town early to eat out first. I did do 10 minutes of dog-interrupted yoga before BF got up and I had to stop. I'll do the remaining 5 minutes over lunch. Will also focus on getting in my steps and extra movement today to make up for any eating - Taco Tuesday dinners are usually higher calories so I'll have to be mindful. I have leftover roasted veggies and the couscous/quinoa steamable package leftover for lunch. I'll find a protein to add in and keep it lower-calorie overall. Trying to fast until lunch. Fortunately I'm on a 2-hour work call right now to keep me busy and out of the kitchen until 11am!
5/10 - I'm very happy with no change after eating out Mexican last night. I opted for a ground beef taco salad and a skinny margarita. I had maybe 5 chips and salsa, as well. Overall, I was within calories after fasting until lunch and staying active. I finished my yoga with a quick 5-minute stretch from Yoga with Adriene.The t-ball game was cancelled due to very wet fields and more rain forecasted so we ended up coming back home after eating which gave me a chance to walk the dogs for a second time. I needed to as I wasn't even close to meeting my 10k step goal until after that. There's no rain forecasted for today (despite this entire week being forecasted for it...now it's next week. We shall see) so I'm heading out for another 25 minute run once the sun peaks up enough I can see (and cars can see me). Not looking forward to it, but I know I'll feel so happy and accomplished after. I'll need to coordinate today to see when BF plans to leave on Friday so I know whether I have time for a run and shower or not - I may be running Friday's C25K tomorrow to ensure I squeeze it in. Especially with a threat of rain next week....a treadmill would be fantastic about now to ease my anxiety about keeping up with my training.6 -

Happy birthday Donna! May today be delightful in every way 4 -
Here we go again!! I've had 6 straight days under 170...but just barely...hoping to keep it that way and make the gap bigger. I think I'd like to start incorporating some strength training back into my activity routine. 6plus years ago I was majorly into kettle bell workouts, started having some issues with my elbow and shoulder and just stopped. I've got a whole set of them that my boys now use. This week I'm planning on carving myself out a space down there to give them a go again...starting slowly to make sure I get my form back.
Off we go friends! Make it a good one!
Female, 51yrs, 5'5"
Goal Weight - to hang out somewhere 145-150
R221 EW 5/1 - 169.2
5/2 - 169.0 - mini drop! Heading north today for a job interview...looking to pick up something part time while I'm up at my parents place with my boys for their summer jobs. Still need to take the dog out for a walk and then figure out what I'm going to wear.
5/3 - 168.4 - was able to balance lower activity with good food choices yesterday. Interview went well (manager said they would have HR email me an offer this week) and I called about another sign I saw while I was up there and had another phone interview on the spot that was also great...I may have a decision to make. Still yucky, cold and damp outside, makes me want to sleep all day, but I'm going to get the Mackster out for a walk and then tackle the disaster that is the basement...it's boy territory and as much as they say they tidy it, it needs a good mom clean.
5/4 - 168.8 - nothing to worry about, normal fluctuation. Weather is finally taking a turn for the better! Off to the woods this morning to see how muddy we get after the last few days of rain!! Have a great day everyone - May the 4th be with you!!
5/5 - 168.0 - nice! I feel like it may be a hungry day today...calories were really low yesterday and if I go on another big hike this morning I'm going to be ravenous at lunch...will log and keep it balanced. I have a plan and I will stick to it.
5/6 - 168.0 - Loving the return of spring we're having...lots of outside stuff to do. Hike with the dog (and DS15 if I can get him out of bed) and a concert this afternoon....BFF's choir's spring concert and I'm going to go sit with her boys to see her perform, I know she's gonig to try to get me to join the choir after, not likely LOL.
5/7 - 169.0 - Went for pizza with BFF and her boys after the concert yesterday. Guestimated calories and pretty confident I was still working with a deficit...so likely it's carb/sodium shock showing on the scale this morning. Time to get out for a walk this morning before it rains.
5/8 - 169.2 - Bleh! Feeling super puffy today. Sodium and carbs again yesterday. Hoping the bloat comes off before the end of the round or I'll have made zero progress on the scale. Hiking this morning then a mammogram this afternoon...need to plan a reasonable dinner somewhere in there.
5/9 - 168.6 - heading back down. No TMI for a couple of days now, that's definitely not helping the scale number...feeling less bloated/puffy, but definitely backed up...we'll see how today goes, might need a cup of smooth move tea tonight. Beautiful day today! Heading to the woods then I'm going to work in the garden a bit after our hike.
5/10 - 167.8 - yay! Another gorgeous day! Hubby is out picking up a trailer load of mulch so we will continue working in the gardens this morning after our walk. Lots of shoveling...hopefully I won't be too sore tomorrow.
5/11 - 167.0 - Nice! Excellent couple of whoosh days to end the round! The weather this week is definitely helping step up my activity level...gardening burns calories! See you all in the next round friends!!9 -
und 222
May 2 – May 11, 2023
61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
Goal for Round 222 – I want to start the process of transitioning to maintaining. While I would like to get to 126 (roughly weight at daughter’s wedding), I also don’t want just an “on” “off” switch. I’d like to finally start filling in the supplement section that I have claimed I was doing since February. And, I’d like to start expanding what I do for exercise. For a weight, I would like to end the round no higher than the nice surprise of 128.2 with which I started the round.
During this round, I have DEXA scan, BMR, and risk assessment on May 6th. Entering a chipped 5K on May 7th (not sure if walking or running, but I need do it to adjust my comfort zone). Mammogram on May 8th. Annual physical also on May 8th. Likely, all my annual blood work and such on May 9th. Then Dentist on May 11. A regular apmt except for it will be the first time seeing the dentist since starting Invisalign, which then includes me brushing, flossing, water picking, rinsing, etc, many many times a day. Going to be an informative round.
History:
Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, a DGS, and second GS on the way. We have three parents, 88(father), 86(mother), 84(MIL) still with us, and I have logically been needing to help them more as they age. I got my act in gear during COVID, somewhat inspired by NOT becoming my parents. I lost 30 lbs and was exercising daily. Unfortunately, I am an “all in or not” person. Selling family home distractions, plus medical incident with my father and all their new needs, became an excuse. A year and a half later, I gained 25 lbs and lost all my athletic improvements. I need to figure out balance and how to make health be a daily priority for life!

SW: 128.2
Day/Weight/Comment
5/02 – 129.2 Had a visit with my friends Ben and Jerry, that I have not seen in 2023. Oh, well. The irony is that I was thinking how I would not buy this flavor again, as I finished the ice cream pint. I even thought how I could throw the rest away, but I ate it anyhow. The good thing is that I tracked it, and I stepped on the scale today despite knowing what was coming. The questions that come from this are 1) why did I allow myself to purchase it? It was on sale and was thinking I would find a day to make the ice cream work (just not yesterday) 2) why did I allow myself this stress response? Less than 24 hours from getting home we found out the master bathroom shower is somehow leaking through the walls into the basement and we are now facing getting a plumber and potentially wall repairs to our newly refinished bathroom after he gets done. Still, that is not an excuse and something to improve.
On a positive note, I did my first Massachusetts walk yesterday. Not super long, only 3.4 miles, but I had a great walking pace, especially since I have not seen a hill in ages (Florida elevation gain during my walk is 7 ft, but yesterday was 208 ft). It also got my BPM up to a nice rate. Average was 132 BPM, with a high of 150+.
I swear that sharing with this group is like therapy!!
5/03 – 129.6 Yup, the ice cream sale was buy “2”. At least it is over and done with. Otherwise the day was really good. I finally used the Apple+ Fitness that we have set up. I did a 30 minute spin (but only at steady state) and then a 10 minute core (meh, I’ve had better). I am reset and ready for a great day today.
5/04 – 129.8 I need to stop this cycle. Yesterday was no exercise. Perpetual rain. I should have used the Apple +. I did not. Had perfect calorie day, until about 9 PM. Then I found M&M’s that my MIL had me bring from Florida to use in baking. Gone. Being home, I am getting scattered again.
Today, I am heading to my parents at the assisted living. Today starts my next 8 to 9 months of dealing with their hoarding. Getting involved in their financials, and dealing with estate and medical issues. In all that, I need to remember me, and to not resort to Netflix and eating as a stress relief.
Just finished dinner prep. Now heading to MFP diary to pre-track my day, and try to get some early morning exercise.
Late add: I got my butt outside in the cold cold drizzle and did a run/walk of the hilly neighborhood. Getting ready for Sunday and my baseline 5k.
5/05 – 129.2 Finally, a back on track day. Three days with bad dietary endings. Good to see some of the gain was temporary. But I can do math, so I know there were some surplus calories that make a gain real.
Today, being smart before my fun tests tomorrow. For the RMR, to get as accurate a number as possible, one is to avoid things that might ramp up ones metabolism. These things include exercise, stimulants such as coffee, and then there are constraints regarding food such as being fasted tomorrow morning. So anyhow, no coffee or exercise for me today. But I have plenty of other things to accomplish today, so that’s ok.
5/06 – 129.4 Did not get my post up this morning. But had a good busy day. Did my DEXA scan, RMR, AI risk calcs, visited with DD, SIL & DGS, picked up my packets for tomorrow’s 5K, walked the cats, and did an experimental neighborhood walk. Will post info on the scans and such later.
5/07 – 128.4 Actually very excited for the number. Last night after my busy day, I bent the wrong way picking up a mostly empty box and I got a back zinger. It’s clearly another bulging disk issue that I have had before. I took a solid dose of Naproxen Sodium, which I know can cause fluid retention/weigh gain. Anyhow, going to be an interesting morning. I have to leave for the 5K in 45 minutes. Then once home, I have lots of work to do to get ready for a contractor who is coming early tomorrow morning. Regarding the 5K, I will enter it even if it means I am only walking it. I want to get comfortable with competing every now and then.
Adding: turns out I never put up my post earlier this morning. I survived the 5k! Now to clean!
5/08 – 129.0 Yesterday was interesting as my back was in significant pain, and I was debating about trying to run during the 5K at all. But I really wanted to try, and to obtain a baseline for an officially timed 5k with running (years ago I walked one or two – my walking is pretty fast). Got there early, with around 3600 others (Look up Colleen Ritzer if you are curious about who this honored). Lots of time to kill, and lots of feeling my sore back (I did take a second max dose of NS). Got to the starting line and decided to see what would happen if I ran. I could always stop and walk. Race starts uphill. :’( and all my exercise until a week ago has been in the keys that is beyond flat. I actually ran almost the whole time. I allowed myself two breaks. One less than .2 miles and the other .03 miles. For the second .03 break, BPM was 178 (planning to verify with PCP today that that is ok to do).
Getting back to what was interesting. At the end of the race, I had zero back pain, and had forgotten about it. About a half hour or so later, it returned.
5/09 – 128.4 Mammogram results were back in a couple hours. Amazingly fast! All was good. Then later in the day, at my physical, for the second year in a row, I gave high BP readings (4 pm 143/76 I think). I now have to do self reporting into the office to prove that my BP is fine. In fact, my usual issue is low BP that makes me dizzy (show me a needle and you will see that reaction). I started self testing as soon as I got home and yup, it was initially high at home too (5:47 133/81 and 6:20 140/77). Good news is that that means my home unit provided data comparable that in office and has more meaning. By 7:07, I was 115/69, and 8:27 was 110/66. This morning 115/69, and then 102/76 after a quick 20 min spin. I guess I used up all my good news over the weekend. Tomorrow, I get to do all my blood work…….
5/10 – 128.0 Heading to the lab for annual bloodwork. Yesterday was crazy busy with my parents. Today I have to catch up on my own home and life. Still not settled in/unpacked from being in Florida.
5/11 – 128.4 My week of new data. Yesterday, I was excited for my lab work. Then I was less excited. Lipid panel was less than stellar. This year, I have been losing weight with CICO, and no consideration for macros. In contrast, in 2021, I had a lot higher volume of fruits and vegetables in my diet. Bummer. I was hoping to see that body weight and exercise was my cholesterol control. Have not gotten response from the doc. Curious what she will have to say. Lastly, final number was not what I wanted, but I need to accept not every round will be a down and that is ok.
Adding: Did a quick walk before posting. Listened to some podcasts. Take aways, that make sense to me, are I need to increase soluble fiber (current diet is very lacking unlike 2021) to reduce cholesterol and add in “muscle confusion” to exercise. Ie change things up regularly.

I've got a whole set of them that my boys now use. This week I'm planning on carving myself out a space down there to give them a go again...starting slowly to make sure I get my form back.
I love kettlebell workouts! One month my niece and I did a challenge of 100 swings a day for the entire month. It was a fun challenge.
I used to love them as well! Have to admit I didn't even look at a kettlebell in the last 10 days...nevermind swing one LOL. I'm not sure why I can't seem to work them back into my routine...need to get on that...3 -
I was less excited. Lipid panel was less than stellar. This year, I have been losing weight with CICO, and no consideration for macros. In contrast, in 2021, I had a lot higher volume of fruits and vegetables in my diet. Bummer. I was hoping to see that body weight and exercise was my cholesterol control.
Cholesterol:
have you heard of Forks Over Knives diet?
My cholesterol has always been high ~250-325,
with high HDL and low triglycerides.
I used to run a lot/eat low calories/tried a bunch of stuff to try to lower my cholesterol without drugs, without much success, only going down 5-15 points, while killing myself.
Then last year, I tried FoK for 5.5weeks DILIGENTLY, no cheating.
And my cholesterol went down by ?90 points to 191. I've never been under 200 without the aid of drugs.
FoK is all about the vegetables and fruit.
It's basically vegan (no meat/dairy) but the kicker is no oil/sugar/salt.

05/11-116.6-off statins for a while-Still hoping that is not the cause of the pain in my leg-as it had dropped my cholesterol by over 150 points-but the doctor suspects it may be. Glad this round is over.
@huango -my cholesterol without Statins is about 351 (100 of that is Good Cholesterol)-I may try a plant-based diet (although that is pretty much what I already eat) and see if that helps. I was on the lowest Statin 2.5mg-so the doctor was hoping I would have no problems (since my mitochondria had all but been eaten away from past use of the drug) I was hopeful but she is 50% sure the muscle pain is due to the drug-at least this time it did not go after my nerves!6 -

5/4 - 123.2 - happy with this after yesterdays drop
5/5 - 122.4 - omg was not expecting this! Officially down 45lbs! I’ve got my eye on 50 😉
5/6 - 122.4 - Had a great day yesterday. Workout was intense, was off from work early and had one drink with a friend before picking up the kids, then made a healthier version of a cheat meal for dinner and was completely satisfied. Stayed within cal goals for the day too 🙌
5/7 - 122.4 - Holding steady.
5/8 - 122.6 - Normal fluctuation I think. Active day planned today. If all goes to plan nutritionally I hope to see a small drop tomorrow. 🥒🥕🥗🍓🍑🍌
5/9 - 122.4 (122.8 trend weight) - small drop… staying the course. Noticed a lot of people use trend weight which is a very useful tool. So I’ve started incorporating that into my daily notes. Thanks for the inspiration all!! 💕
5/10 - 122.1 (122.2 trend) Happy to see some movement in the right direction.
5/11 - 122.1 (122.1 trend) yesterday I had a NSV!! It was a beautiful day here in NS, so even though I went to a CrossFit class before work, I decided to go for a run on my lunch break. My plan was to zone out, listen to some tunes and get some fresh air. Turned into my fastest 5K ever!! 26:59 🎉🎉🎉 I couldn’t believe it when I saw my time. I hadn’t been paying attention to my pace at all during the run.
Thanks everyone for sharing these past 10 days! Looking forward to another round ☺️12 -

My vegetarian farmer friends tried FoK and it's the no dairy/oil/sugar that helped her drop 80points.
They were already vegetarians (mainly because of all the veggies that they grow), but it wasn't until doing FoK did her cholesterol numbers really move.
Because of their experiences is why I finally tried FoK.

Day, Weight, Comment
5/02 - 182.6
Yesterday was great food wise, horrible weather/walking wise—cold windy rain. Still cold and wet this morning but hopefully drying up this afternoon and warming up the rest of the week.
5/03 - 182.4
Spring, please come back! I’m tired of the cold wet rainy days! I thought you’d be here by this morning, but…. Anyway, it should warm up this afternoon if the forecasters are correct and then I can go for a comfortable walk. But I have been walking the pup 30 min twice a day, and I’m definitely getting my walking mojo back.
5/04 - 181.8
Well, this makes me feel a bit better. I did snack last night (ice cream), but walked a good hour and did some garden work. No ice cream tonight!
5/05 - 182
It’s a gorgeous day here, so I’m heading out for a walk with the pup, then doing some garden work, including transplanting a few things, so digging and lifting. We had fairly caloric chicken enchiladas last night and I’m feeling kind of “full” this morning—probably salty, though they didn’t taste that way. I’m making a cherry tomato galette with olives, spinach, and feta for dinner. I’m not officially on the Mediterranean diet, but I lately I’ve been having some sliced tomato, olives, feta or cottage cheese, and stuffed grape leaves for lunch and couple days a week. Yum yum! Have a great weekend, everyone!
5/06 - 181.8
I’m feeling pretty good the past couple of days. Maybe it’s the two walks a day and garden labor and 🌞 sunshine! I’m starting a major garden revamp today in our side yard, where I started a wildflower/butterfly garden two years ago but thistles and other weeds have taken over. So we got an estimate from a guy to take out the mulch etc. lay sod, but it’s $2500, and I don’t want to spend that kind of money on it, so I’m going to weed whack the weeds and then lay a barrier of garden fabric and mulch and hope that helps. I’ve never in 35 years had such a problem with thistles! So I’m starting that today. It’ll be a lot of work, but actually sounds like fun to me right now. Knowing how expensive the alternative it makes a big difference! Have a lovely weekend, all!
5/07 - 181.8
I got lots of exercise yesterday and ate responsibly, so all good. I can’t remember who all was part of the cottage cheese discussion last round, but want to say thank you—I’d forgotten how good it is. I’ve been have 1% cottage cheese with sliced tomatoes or pineapple or berries for lunch every couple of days. Yummy!
5/08 - 182.8
One of those things….
5/09 - 183.4
Wth? No clue. I’ll just keep eating within my goals and it will fall back off. But really? I will say my feet felt a bit swollen last night, so maybe water. Anyway, gorgeous day here. Booker turned 6 months old yesterday—pic below, no idea what he has all over his face. Off to his well-mannered dog class in a few. It’s a fun class as we go to different places—last week was Tractor Supply, Menard’s, PetSmart, and Kohl’s. Today we’re going to a park. I’ve taken him to lots of places since I got him, but it’s fun with the other dogs (6 of us). Lots of walking and I skip lunch on Tuesdays since class is 11:30-1. 🙂
5/10 - 182.8
Very weird ups and downs. I like the downs better! Our class got postponed to today, so yesterday I did a lot of work in the garden, digging out strange weeds that are trying to take over (I think maybe some sort of groundcover that’s blown in?), digging up limestone pavers and moving to edge the front bed, getting reading for a major overhaul of side yard. Was really sore last night! I’m a little sore still this morning, but not bad. Off for a walk with the pupper, then a little more garden work, then off to doggy school. We’re having a late lunch/early dinner pizza, so I don’t see much hope for tomorrow/end of round, but hey, I’m healthy and getting things done, so it’s not the end of the world.
5/11 - 184
I knew it. Pizza and I broke down and had ice cream in the evening. But I’m back on track today — low-fat cottage cheese for breakfast, salad for lunch, watching calories at dinner, no snacking. On to the next round.

Projection/Actual
5/11 210.4/216.9 ~ Well.....this round didn't go as planned. I feel like these few pounds will come off pretty quickly once I get back to my routine. The doctor had planned to keep my husband in the hospital for 24 hour observation after surgery but they ended up keeping him an additional day. Hopefully he comes home today. But that means another 3+ hours in the car (the hospital is 1.5 hours away).
Prior Days This Round5/2 213.1/213.8 ~ Not terribly surprised after the drops the past couple of days. All good. Got all my water in yesterday!! 🍎👌✅🚶🏽(for 5/1)
5/3 212.8/215.6 ~ Oops, up 1.8 from yesterday. Normally this result would send me spiraling...but this is just how my body works... Fact: I did not eat/drink +5,250 above maintenance (3,500 equal 1 pound). Fact: I did eat/drink ~600 above by targeted calories. I did get all my water in! Tomorrow's another day.👌✅🚶🏽(for 5/2)
5/4 212.2/214.9 ~ Headed back in the right direction. Missed my step goal. 🍎👌✅(for 5/3)
5/5 211.5/214.2 ~ Today is Cinco De Mayo. Husband wants Mexican and Margaritas. 😲😮🤭. Going to be a tough one but I'm going to try to stay at my calorie budget. I have a salad planned for lunch which comes in at 300 calories. That leaves me plenty of room for a (one) margarita and a chicken taco meal. That leaves me with 45 calories to spare. Oops, forgot the chips and guacamole. 🤞🏽 I think I will go for an extra walk at lunch today!🙂 🍎👌✅🚶🏽(for 5/4) 👌✅🚶🏽(for 5/5)
5/6 211.2/215.7 ✅🚶🏽
5/7 211.1/ 215.3 🍎
5/8 211.0/ 215.7 - Let's just say the weekend was fun🙂 Now back to some serious business. 3 more days to this round. Just hoping to get back to the SW for the round at this point. 🍎👌🚶🏽
5/9 210.8/DNW ~ Up and out of the house early today. Husband having knee replacement surgery today. Definitely NOT hitting goals this round. 🚫
5/10 210.5/216 ~ Not surprised. You couldn't bring outside food into the waiting room and all they had was a snack machine and coffee. I snacked to keep hunger at bay. By the time I got home, I just needed something quick so it was not a good eating day. One of these times I'm going to have two good rounds in a row!!!🚶🏽Projection/Actual

Round 222: JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS
Hi, this is my 2nd round.
I’m Amanda, almost 50, wicked short 4’11” from New England.
My 1st goal is for mid-June (trip to LA/Vegas),
2nd goal for mid-August.
Appreciate all your support.
- Pre-plan meals for the day

Round 221 SW: 126.8
Round 222 SW: 122.6 - debloated 4.2#
Round 222 GW: 1205/2 – 121.6
Great start to Round 222.
5/3 – 122.0
5/4 – 122.2
May the 4th be with you!
Almost did 1 pull-up: it's close. It's coming!
Max pull-ups = 8. **WHEN** will I ever get to 9?
I upped my hip thrust to 60#+thin bar. This feels good.
PR hip thrust was 205#. I’m coming back (so ever slowly).
5/5 – 121.4
Happy Margaritas Day!
5/6 – 121.0 ⬇️
So not used to weighing every day.
Almost didn’t want to weigh myself, since I had a HEFTY yummy dinner last night, but I was feeling good: great weight training this morning (instead of sleeping in)
Debloated almost 6# in 2 weeks; almost 12# in 1 month (I was sooooo bloated before getting back on track)
Did 1 pull-up today! (It’s been ?a year+ since I’ve been able to do pullups)
I’m coming back, baby!
5/7 – 122.0 ⬆️
I ate a nice filling soup before heading to the Derby party last night.
I had really great self control:
- smaller plate, so didn’t overstuffed myself
- Only 1 drink
- Only 1 bite of a delicious key lime pie
Beautiful weather on our early 4.2miles hike this morning.
5/8 - 121.2 ⬇️
Was such a beautiful day that when my gf suggested an afternoon walk, I said YES (even though I already did my weight training this morning). Great 3.3miles and gabbing all along the way.
5/9 – 120.2 ⬇️
I volunteer farm on Tuesdays at an organic farm.
3 wins:
- we get amazing nutritious yummy organic produce
- I work out in the beautiful outdoors
- I meet diverse friends, different from my usual group of people, and we chat the entire time and I often learn wonderful fascinating things from everyone.
EXHAUSTED:
Today was prepping 5 beds using this 15# broad fork tiller;
then weeding a fresh bed covered in tough weeds.
5/10 – 121.2 ⬆️
Beautiful day!
3 walks today 5.1 miles
- Wednesday Walk friends 2.6
- lunch to let out friend’s puppy 0.5
- waiting for DD appt 2 miles
Then I whipped up easy fresh shrimp rolls for dinner, with mint from my garden, and 0 calories shirataki noodles.
Kids never think about how it's just a salad rolled up.
5/11 – 121.0 ⬇️
Great finish to R222: loss of 1.6#
Didn't feel like working out this morning, but I told myself that "it's a routine, like brushing your teeth, just do it and be done". Got it done!
Onto R223!6 -

Onto R223!
Great job.
I find myself more often than not having to remind myself that my workout is routine, it's a scheduled event just like my work meetings (that I usually don't want to attend, either haha!) and I need to get it done. A check off of the to-do list. I cannot say I've ever been someone who looks forward to working out - I simply look forward to the endorphins after it and the feeling of getting stronger.
