    Habits I've worked on for so long that it's finally a real habit: Whole foods, plant-based is now the actual, real life, no struggle, not stressful, base of my diet!!! Total 180 turn for me in the diet department. I still have ice cream and frozen treats at night sometimes but it's not every night and I don't eat an entire pint of 1200 calories anymore. Also, I don't drink alcohol every night. Again, it's sometimes when I want it and if I want it two nights in a row, I think about it real hard first :). Most fun, I randomly do yoga poses throughout the day (chair pose is my go to right now) and I like holding it and paying attention to the changes I feel in myself and my muscles that I never knew I could actually feel working = No sweat strength training.
    Goals this round: outside nature walk every day
    Intended habits to build: Morning routine that includes outside nature walks regularly and explore new places.

    5/25 129 Hi everyone. I've been working on building a healthier inward mindset and I think it's been a good thing because I've got wins to share. I tried on a pair of pants that I last tried to wear in April and they fit then but we're uncomfortably snug around the thighs. Today they're so loose I can pinch the fabric away from the skin! I've been keeping to grocery shopping like a vegan so everything to eat and snack on at home is whole foods plant-based, and home cooked, and when eating out I'll eat whatever sounds good. And as long as it's not eating out more than once a week, that's only one day a week of meat and my body recovers so quickly it seems to barely phase me. I seem to be doing well this way and it's relieved a lot of dietary stress. I haven't been tracking or really paying attention to anything in particular except my energy level and going to bed earlier to keep from night time snacking so I'm happy to get the feedback from my pants and scale that I'm not over or under doing it. And, probably the most important... I got my blood work done and for the first time ever my doctor didn't call me to discuss my labs because they were all normal! Yay! My goal for the rest of May is to get outside and move in nature every day that the weather permits. I'm still scared of being near 130 because that should be my maintenance ceiling but I feel great and expect that as long as I don't give up on myself I can keep up these healthy habits that you all helped me start building back in January. Thank you!
    5/26 128.2 two day average: 128.6 Good day yesterday. This little drop is a surprise but I don't know what my average day weight is right now so I just hope it doesn't bounce up tomorrow. Maybe I can safely aim to end this round at a solid three day average of 128.
    5/27 DNW Good day yesterday. The nature walks make such a difference in my mood and outlook for the day. Celebratory dinner last night so I'm going to drink lots of water today and have lots of greens to help flush the sodium out. I get to eat it again today because I packed up more than half my entree to take home because I was too full despite it's deliciousness. I started pregaming eating out by either eating a small roasted sweet potato just before leaving or drinking a glass of metamucil and two more glasses of water. It makes it so I'm arrived at the restaurant not starving, I get fuller faster, and it gives me a base of fiber so I don't worry about what I'm ordering. I feel like I've hacked the system.

    Nothing new.

    5/23 - 183.8
    I have a lot of busyness coming up this week in the mornings — this morning, Booker has class and will take his Urban Canine Good Citizen test. Tomorrow a zoom meeting with my writers group. Friday mammogram and bone density scan. I guess I have Thursday to work in the garden. 🙂 Anyway, Sunday I baked a cake, which DH asked for and, honestly, I’d been craving. It was good and I feel I got that out of my system for a while with minimal damage. So this afternoon I’m planning to get various salad fixings ready for easy use the rest of the week—chop chop chop. We’re having gorgeous weather, clear and just verging on hot. Perfect for all the planting and weeding I need to do. I thought I’d share a pic of one of my favorite easy summer lunches—makes me think of the time I spent studying in Cairo wayyyy back. Stuffed grape leaves (I love My Greek Mezze brand from Greece), tomato, hard-boiled egg, good olives. Sometimes I add hummus (Cedar’s brand is my favorite) and/or sliced bell pepper or celery. Savory, low cal, satisfying. Have a great day. All!

    5/24 - 183.8
    Yesterday was a good, busy day. Booker passed his Urban Canine Good Citizen test with flying colors. Good boy! And I mostly ate responsibly. 🙂

    5/25 - 183.6
    Yesterday felt busy but I don’t seem to have gotten much done. Today I get my strength training—I need to move a small lilac and remove two dead plants (shovel involved), and put down landscape fabric in another area. And pull more blankety blank weeds! All of which burns a few calories and keeps me out of the kitchen!

    5/26 - 183.6
    I can’t believe it’s Friday already. Today I have my long-overdue mammogram and dexascan, then more garden work. Have to take advantage of the gorgeous weather! Have a lovely!

    5/27 - 183.6
    Good news on my DEXA scan yesterday—I’ve increased my bone density since last time and am just barely over the line for osteopenia. So I’m making more improvement before my next scan in two years one of my goals. Nutrition and exercise! It actually perked me up to see that. Right now I’m not worried about strength training with all the garden redesign I’m doing, but I need to get back to regular strength training. I’ve been haphazardly tracking my calcium intake but am going to pay more attention to that as well. I do not want a broken hip! Ok, speaking of…off to walk the pup and then get to work on the garden redo. Enjoy your Saturday!

    @SModa61 There are two reasons (I know of) why people are put on Statins 1) high cholesterol and 2) high blood pressure. When looking at total cholesterol, it is best to check the LDL (e.g. Bad) and HDL (good cholesterol).
    Since my Total has always hovered around 350, doctors always want me on Statins. When recently on Statins (5mg every other day) my total dropped to nearly 250, of which 100 is HDL. Which my doctor says is great FOR ME (as I do not have any other conditions putting me at risk for a heart attack or stroke). I began getting leg weakness and pain within a few months of taking and stopped 2 weeks ago)
    Over the years, they have changed the cut-off from anyone over 100 to be on Statins to a much higher number.
    Usually, people who will have a problem with Statins know quickly after starting. I used to complain constantly every time I was started on a new Statin type-it was not until I developed Neuropathy (in my fingers) that the doctors believed me and realized I had lost a lot of mitochondria in my nerves. Good luck.
    FYI: I have been off the statins for 2 weeks but will start again tomorrow--my doctor wants me to try a different method of taking it. I am not anti-Statins; just want to find a method that works for me.

    Doctors do not like to take people off Statins once on, especially if it is also used for high blood pressure. However, many people like myself were on 5 mg of Statins only to later find out that 5mg every other day had the same results, lowering the side effects.
    If your friend is on Statins, make sure she takes a Q10 pill every time she takes the statin, as that helps stop some of the muscle damage in the legs. Interestingly, in Canada, all statin medicine are also required to have the ingredients of Q10 within the pill-they tried to do that here in the US, and Pharm blocked it.
    I hope your friend can get some help, as I know firsthand how difficult that is. I still have to use my handicapped decal when the pain is too much. I know the disapproving look of people who must think I am gaming the system-I wish I had known 20 years ago what I know now.

    @Machias1949 Thanks so very much for the info. I will definitely pass it on.

    05/24 -196.8- (Trend weight 195.6)

    05/25 -194.2- (Trend weight 195.5)

    05/26 -192.0- (Trend weight 195.1) Calories were good yesterday but the carbs were slightly up. I made all good choices and substitutions in my foods. Late last night I was craving chocolate so I had two pieces of Russell Stovers sugar-free candy. It put me over on carbs by a bit but doesn’t seem to have hurt the scale. I will try to pre-log and remain diligent today. I hope to get through the U.S. Holiday weekend without too much damage.

    05/27 -193.8- (Trend weight 195.0) I’m a bit shocked at the overnight gain (I wish I could call it an uptick or fluctuation). I did go to dinner last night for the fish fry. However, I only ate half of the dinner, drank water with lemon, skipped breakfast and lunch for an OMAD day. One snack late last night (a hand full of unsalted nuts). Good TMI, medium activity level. Small amount of exercise while babysitting DGS. Cons were: not enough water and not enough sleep last night. That’s a big jump on the scale overnight! Sodium from the dinner? Perhaps. My endocrinologist took me off of my water pill at the recent appointment. He said that it is bad for my kidneys (which is already taxed with diabetes). He said that pill (given by cardiologist) would have been the 5th or 6th defense or choice with a diabetic. He put me on a different blood pressure pill. I finished out my pill holder day before yesterday (which still had water pills in it), so I am now in fear of my ankles getting too swollen but I am glad to see someone noticed that a water pill was not right for me .

    @Machias1949 I think I listen to too many podcasts and youtubes. Back in 2018, I was looking for "brainfog" type info as I was curious about my scattered memory (which that's all I think it is now). I ended up listening to various individuals that are low carb leaning, and some of what was discussed related to cholesterol, how it has a bed rap, and that we neglect to recognize that cholesterol is important to our brains. I remember statins got touched on at times with the claim that lowering cholesterol too much was bad for the brain.

    One of the most interesting points they made (whether correct or not, I cannot tell) was the claimed correlation between increases in brain conditions and the governmental introduction of the low fat food pyramid. I know they mentioned ADHD, but I can not now recall if dementia was also mentioned. Anyhow, the points they made are in my head and it makes me consider that lower is not always better, and that the big picture must be viewed.

    On another recent youtube, there was a claim that actually as we age, somewhat higher cholesterols are healthy. It is so so confusing.

    As for my mother, I am just blown away by how rapidly she is deteriorating, and I just get wondering if there was preventable causality, or this was her fate regardless.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    5/22 - 153.4 - Sodium and lack of water caught up with me today. I stayed within weight loss calories all weekend, so I hope to be back down tomorrow.
    5/23 - 153.2 - I stayed on track yesterday, I just have to be patient.
    5/24 - 152.9 - Same story as yesterday.
    5/25 - 152.3 - OK, now I just have to behave with the food over my long holiday weekend.
    5/26 - 151.6 - I ate well yesterday. Since it's a vacation day for me, my husband and I will be running around all day. I have to stay mindful of what I'm eating.
    5/27 - 152.3 - Husband and I split the hamburger I ordered for lunch yesterday, but I had some fries too. I will try to watch the sodium better today.

    I couldn’t log in to do the post or to ask someone to do it. I appreciate you doing it.

    I’m so happy to see my MFP family continues to grow! I’m home, I’m exhausted and seriously need to get with the program!

    So good to read this, was getting a little worried about you, was struggling to remember how long you were cruising for! Hope you had a marvellous time and made lots of happy memories, welcome back x.
