@quiltingjaine is on a cruise, she said she was going to post the new round 20th May when she was at Long Beach, as she hasn't - maybe she has technical problems? I'm starting the new round off. I hope I'm not stepping on her toes.
Round 224
May 22 - May 31, 2023
Please join us starting on 5/22 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 224!
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.
If you feel your post is too lengthy, you can add spoilers to temporarily hide the information. It is readily available by tapping the SPOILER bar. To create a Spoiler just type or copy [ Spoiler ] xxx [ /Spoiler ] Omit the spaces within the brackets and put your information where I have xxx

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.

5/22 146.8 (trend 146.3) After a couple of days at a new low weight, I've bounced back up, which is frustrating, to say the least. Went for a lovely 5 mile countryside walk then stopped at a village pub for lunch, where I had chicken breast, chips and salad. It's probably the chips that have caused the spike on the scale. In the evening OH decided he wanted to try and make nettle soup, so we went for another little walk and foraged a load of stinging nettles, which was fun. The soup was very tasty, bright green, and full of vitamins.

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.

@musicsax thanks for starting the challenge in @quiltingjaine absence. I love it when a challenge ends at the end of a month & starts on a Monday. Just the push I need to accomplish something this month. I will cook ahead today. I entertained thoughts of fasting or even one meal a day but the next 10 days are the busiest days of the year for me so I will weigh/measure/pre portion my food so that I am getting the nourishment that I need. I will control the extras & take morning & evening walks with the dog. This will be a great 10 days!

Thanks again everyone for being here for another round! I need to wrap my brain around how to maintain my successful routines while running back and forth between my parents' place and new job and our normal life...especially when parents'/job will be the regular place for most of the summer once the kids are done school and we all move up.

5/22 - 166.6 - got back from my job and Hubby had two cans of my absolute favourite in the history of all time ever Spring Saison from the craft brewery we love up here. Had to have them, I missed it last year so it's been two years since I've had one. Too many treats last night...Nana cookies and great beer.

5/22 - 155.9 - And back down a bit. I'm shocked to be down, though. I gave into ice cream at lunch. Then, later, realized that the dinner I was making (upon request) was super calorie dense and I'd be over by a significant amount. Fortunately the rain stopped perfectly for me to get a walk in with the pups to not only meet step goal but to reach maintenance (versus surplus). Rain started up again immediately upon getting home and unharnessed. I'm feeling bloated and heavy this morning but overall okay. I didn't run, BF was up and it triggered the dogs to go crazy. I was wide awake from 220-330am and then tossed and turned from then until 615 (I tried to allow myself to sleep in a bit). I'll run tomorrow and debating the rest of the week's runs. Wednesday is pizza (it keeps well enough for a late dinner for BF when he gets home from business about 7-730pm) but Thursday is Thirsty Thursday and likely eating out with StepDaughter and LittleBro once they arrive for the summer. Friday is graduation for BigBro and likely eating out but lunch may be normal (meal prep) as BF and I still have to work. I may just run Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday as Saturday is wedding but not until afternoon. I'll have to shower Saturday anyway, perfect excuse! I'm about to shower real quick to get ready - BigBro needs me at his appointment to verify address for drivers license change and I feel icky and gross from my morning walk (muggy out). I'll pedal on the bike (gently, no sweating after shower!) while I work until my morning meeting and then I'll meal-prep lunches for the week during the meeting.

74 years-old great-grandmother (5'2")
ON 8/29/2022: I was 134 LBS and had a 33” natural waist-
MAINTENANCE 114-117
Lessons Learned for maintenance: 1) exercise at least 30 minutes five {5} days a week 2) try to walk no less than 10,000 steps a day 3) If/when my weight creeps up (118.1-119 LBS) increase the incline on the treadmill and add a burst of running to routine 4) eat a low-calorie salad before eating dinner 5) limit fried, breaded, and salty food 6) continue to add ice cubes to my daily 5 oz glass of wine 7) eat fish for dinner at least 2 times a week 8) eight to nine hours of sleep a night 9) Of the 64oz of water daily-drink 8oz of water a half hour before each meal 10) three (3) meals a day and 1-2 small snacks, nothing after dinner. 11) take my thyroid pill on an empty stomach an hour before drinking coffee and 4 hours before other pills 12) Average out the weight for the week so as to have a running record of the “Average weight recorded” for every maintenance month.
Average weight recorded for January ‘23-117.5
Average weight recorded for February ‘23-116.5
Average weight recorded for March ‘23- 117.2
Average weight recorded for April ‘23-116.8
Average weight recorded for May ‘23-?????
Round 223-ended 05/21 115.9
Round 224 RSW 115.6 (goal to lose .4 pounds this round)
05/22-115.6
nice start although my stomach is feeling weird from the Indian meal- that did not sit well last night.
The last time I dropped to 115.6 was Feb 15, 2023 (for just ONE day)- then I went straight back up, so hoping this time I can at least maintain around this weight until July 30th we will see!
