Xiao_Ya_ · June 2023

I had a long trip in May, so I wasn't able to keep track of weight or calories during that time, but that should be more of a possibility now. Fortunately, I only gained a pound or so. I don't really think that eating habits will help with all the mental health conditions I've been overwhelmed with, but it definitely helps me with a sort of sense of control.

I'm doing the weekly weighing challenge too since it's more loose, but at the same time, checking more often is helpful so I can see trend instead of perhaps an odd day on one of my weigh-ins.

June Goal Weight: 93.5 lbs
Ultimate Goal Weight: 85 lbs (85-92 lbs is okay)
SW Round 225

6/1 : 96.5 lbs I'm having a lot of trouble with eating and my brain is not helping. I still need to work out, too, but I'm just so tired and empty that I've just been staring at a wall all day. Fortunately, it's a day off so I'm not hit with too many consequences.
6/2 96.5 lbs I guess I can't complain. I went back to work today, and now I have to plan, budget, and send invitations for a children's birthday party I'm hosting in 5 days. So tired.

Hi Everyone - I am not new to MFP, but I am new to posting. Trying to see if I can really keep myself on track this month of June and beginning of July before heading on long vacation for niece's wedding.

Female, 5'4", 57 years old
HW: 210 (May, 2023)
CW: 152
GW: no idea... I hope I'll know it when I see it in the mirror... I think at least 10 more pounds need to go

Goals: Cardio 5/7 days (I don't think this will be difficult)
Bodyweight Train 3/7 days (I have been doing 1 day/week, telling myself I'll do 2 days/ week... but that hasn't happened)
Log Food 10/10 days (I'm really good on weekdays, not so good on weekends or holidays)

Round 225
6/1: 152 - logged food, walked 30 minutes after lunch, did 60 minute Cardio Dance class after work
6/2: 152 - logged food, walked 30 minutes after lunch (even in this 90 degree heat)

@itladyee I have an All or None attitude too. It's been my downfall in the past. I am currently tring to redirect it to a smaller scale so when I stuff up I try to get back in track immediately rather than to throw it in waiting for the next day or week. For me it is a tough skill to master. You are so positive and driven. Stick with it because it will be worth it!

My goal for this round is to just keep showing up and posting here. I did well last round to get back in track but I have been losing focus and dropping out during the last few rounds. I know if I don't post I will gain. I still have around 1 pound to lose to get back to my lowest weight recorded during these challenges so that will be my goal for this round. I will certainly think twice before taking a diet break next time!

SW Round 225 - 169.8

6/1 169.8 - I didn't update the last few days of the last round. I got lazy. I still went to the gym, but my sessions weren't very motivated. I was in a slump. I did get a good walk in at lunch today. Check in yesterday with my weight loss Dr. She said since my weight has been hovering around the same spot the last few months, that she just wants me to focus on maintaining for the next month and not necessarily losing so my body can adjust to the weight I have lost and "reset" and then work at losing again. She still wants me to maintain my gym sessions and calorie counting but focus on being fit and not so focused on losing. I have 19.8 lbs to hit my ultimate goal and I've been getting discouraged. Maybe this is the reset that I need to get my motivation back. I know the closer I get to my goal, the slower the weight loss will be. I ate like complete crap yesterday and my weight dropped today. I was shocked! LOL I was expecting the scale to yell WTF at me!

6/2 - ⬇️ 169.4 - Yesterday I logged 12,523 steps 🎉🎉🎉 I’m only about a 1/3 of that so far today. Meetings at work and driving most of the day presented a challenge for my steps. I’m going to go take a walk here in a few. Water intake is good today, but I had a high sodium lunch so hoping it doesn’t hurt the scale tomorrow.

Came into work early and worked on the school garden for an hour. It was field day today so I was outside in the heat (92!) for the majority of the day. My plan was to also go to the gym but I can barely keep my eyes open. I'll have to double up this weekend to stay on track. Also logged my food today even though I went waaaaaay off track and didn't want to admit it lol

Forgot to post this at start of Challenge. OW 85.5 kg (65 days ago) GW 72 kg by the end of the year - and sustain it for 2 years!

5/31 81 kg = up 0.5 kg since last weigh in. Boo! Hiss! My plan is to cut out snacks between meals and be ultra scrupulous about tracking.
SW Round 225
6/1 Cos it's already the start of the month where I am. 80.5 kg - poop! poop! eat lots of fiber! - TMI!
6/2 80.3 kg. Not sure of 100% accuracy of scale as it is analog, but I'm too environmentally conscious (and too cheap!) to splash out for a new digital scale. Also SOMEONE keeps shifting the position of the scale, so I keep trying to get it back to the same spot on the bathroom floor. Also I went for a 2 hour walk, which burned up 400 calories, but I only ate an extra 200 over my 1240 limit. The walk was a double bonus because I found a total of .60 cents (.37 US cents) think I'll keep a little jar of all the money I find and buy myself a little reward at the end of the challenge.
6/3 80.3 kg - I forgot to weigh myself before breakfast (pancakes made from scratch, so prob healthier than a mix) Went for a 3 hour walk and had a ham and egg sandwich with black coffee at a cafe - but I passed on the ginger crunch! I found .30 cents (US $0.18) and an Australian $2 coin (???USD) I Have decided I will put any money found plus money saved from passing up ginger crunch and any other snacks and goodies toward renewing my passport, and hopefully, eventually, a trip to Oz - it will be my reward if I can get to my GW and stay there for 2 years.

Switched to my new scale, so hopefully my weights will be more accurate.

Round 225
Starting Weight- 147
Current weight- 148
10 Day Goal-I would love to get down to and stay under my starting weight. Keep up healthier eating. exercise the majority of days, and drink more water. I also need to remember to take my vitamins.
Ultimate Goal Weight: Sub 130
6/1 145.9 No gym, but maintained calories. Did a bit of meal prep.
6/2 145.2 Today was spent doing major housework. No gym, but definitely an active day. Ended up missing lunch and have junk for dinner. I'm guessing I came in around calories but wasn't able to find any nutritional information.

6/1 145.6 (trend 146.4) New round, new month, let's go!! I really need to push myself harder in June as I've been coasting along for the last 2 months and getting too comfortable. I'm upping my round step target by 15,000 steps and committing to no alcohol until I'm on holiday on 20th. I will go for a 4 mile walk every morning and strength train 4 times per week minimum. I will stick to my calorie target and prioritise nutritious food. Any sneaky bites will be logged, no cheating! I need a breakthrough...
Yesterday was 1.5hr lower body strength training and 4.3 mile morning walk, calories good, alcohol free.
STEPS 12,755

6/2 144.8 (trend 146.2) Yes! Into the lower 140s finally! Lots of peeing yesterday so I must've had a lot of retained water.
Yesterday was 0.5hr upper body strength training and 4.3 mile morning walk, calories good, alcohol free.
STEPS 13,005

6/3 145.0 (trend 146.0) Back up a little, just a normal fluctuation I expect, as I have eaten exactly the same thing for the last 3 days, with the exception of having salty ham instead of chicken yesterday.
Yesterday was 50 minutes lower body strength training and 4.1 mile morning walk, calories good, alcohol free.

Round 225
June 1 – June 10, 2023

61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).

SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW current MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
CW 125.8
GW Clueless…….

Figure out maintaining, and continue to work on best nutrition and exercise.

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!

Day/Weight/Comment

6/1 (Mass) – DNW Went on a mini bender last night. While I did track every last bite, I certainly am having regrets. I slept poorly. Kept being “hot”, and wonder if that is from a digestive system trying to cope with the contents. I had reflux again overnight, also a known result of evening food, and I feel disgusting and loaded down this morning. Today will be a normal day. We’ll see what the scale sees tomorrow. From a caloric point of view, my overage in calories cannot create more than a 1/4 of a pound of actual body weight. Next time I head into a bender, I need to remember these observations and how the non-scale consequences are worse than the scale.

6/2 (Mass) – 126.0 (Update for yesterday, I broke down and stepped on the scale after posting. I was 127.8!) Still no exercise yesterday. Spent the day dealing with parents’ needs, home for fast dinner and housework. Today is me, my home, and husband day. Going to get exercise as soon as my watch charges enough (ie soon). Calories were on target yesterday, even if the nutritional aspects were terrible (coffee, Nature valley oatmeal square, then peanut butter cookie, chocolate chocolate chip cookie, coffee made up breakfast and lunch).

6/3 (Mass) – 126.2 Not sure what is up with me this round, and since getting back to Mass. I am behaving destructively. I even stopped bothering to track after dinner last night. That is something I do not think I have missed doing since Jan 1, when I returned to MFP. Gotta figure this out. I think it is me and maintenance. We have a confused relationship.

@tinathescreamer I found a penny yesterday ($.01 US). But it was heads up, so that is supposed to be good luck. The negative is I now had to carry it for the next two miles as I typically do not have pockets when walking/running.

Hello! New month...new round! I need to really work on consistency with tracking...EVERYDAY! It's tricky with being back and forth to my parents' place, which will continue this month. We leave for a big family trip to England and Scotland in 39 days and I would really like to be down to 160 by then so I don't need to worry about vacation gain taking me back up into the 170s, I never want to see them again. BUT...I seem to be stuck in a rut the last two weeks losing and gaining the same two pounds...bouncing up and down between 165 and 167. Time to break through that! Hoping my Dog Walk Challenge for the Canadian Cancer Society will get me out walking twice a day. Here's to keepin' on keepin' on!!

Female - 51yrs - 5.5"
Goal Weight - to hang out somewhere 145-150
R224 End weight - 167.2

6/1 - 166.6 - still in the 166 rut. We start our 50km Dog Walk Challenge for the month of June today. Hoping to get in a 4km hike this morning and then out for another 2ishkm tonight. Mack and I plan to blow past 50km and hopefully double it.
6/2 - 166.2 - Got a hike and a walk in yesterday....5.73/50km. Lots of stuff to do around the house before we head up to the weekend jobs this evening so morning walk will probably be shorter today, but hopefully we can get out tonight for another one when we get to mom and dad's.
6/3 - DNW - forgot to bring my scale with me so will not be weighing in until Monday. Food yesterday...not bad...but a few beers on the dock when we got here. Walked 3.27km with Mack so we are at 9/50km for our challenge. I also have already been up and walked 2 more with him before I head to work today...I can't remember the last time I went out before breakfast!!

6/3-165-Was somewhat careful with what I ate since it was another day of sitting and sewing. Today is the day to move and catch up on all things outside. Probably give the horse a bath since it’s going to be hot. I have fly spray for the horse that I really like using and it’s made out of essential oils and it needs to be applied daily but it builds up a dusty, dirty coat on him so he needs a good scrubbing every so often.

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 6 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

SW Round 225 130.0
6/1 130.0 Still not feeling great. DH thinks it’s allergies. I fell asleep watching television last night at 8:15! Got up, showered and went to bed. Asleep by 9 but woke at 3:30 with headache and need for potty so I gave up and got up. Now I feel I need a nap. Maybe I should just give in.
⭐️ I am not a napper, I never have been unless I’m sick. I finally gave in and put my head down at 3:45 while DH was at cards. I slept until 7:30! I thought it was morning when I got up so I made a pot of coffee. Boy, am I messed up! I hope I can sleep tonight! Well, in a couple of hours.
6/2 129.0 Went to bed at 11:30 and woke at 6:35. Still not feeling great but I want BBQ so we’re going there for lunch today.
6/3 128.0 Ate burnt ends at noon, keto breakfast cookie with coffee mid afternoon I felt better as the day went on and made plans with DGD to meet for early dinner at 4 today, possibly with the rest of her family. It’s hard to coordinate everyone’s schedule.

Xiao_Ya_ · June 2023

I had a long trip in May, so I wasn't able to keep track of weight or calories during that time, but that should be more of a possibility now. Fortunately, I only gained a pound or so. I don't really think that eating habits will help with all the mental health conditions I've been overwhelmed with, but it definitely helps me with a sort of sense of control.

I'm doing the weekly weighing challenge too since it's more loose, but at the same time, checking more often is helpful so I can see trend instead of perhaps an odd day on one of my weigh-ins.

June Goal Weight: 93.5 lbs
Ultimate Goal Weight: 85 lbs (85-92 lbs is okay)
SW Round 225

6/1 : 96.5 lbs I'm having a lot of trouble with eating and my brain is not helping. I still need to work out, too, but I'm just so tired and empty that I've just been staring at a wall all day. Fortunately, it's a day off so I'm not hit with too many consequences.
6/2 96.5 lbs I guess I can't complain. I went back to work today, and now I have to plan, budget, and send invitations for a children's birthday party I'm hosting in 5 days. So tired.
6/3 96.5 lbs Not shocking considering what I did yesterday. Told my manager that I recently had surgery and can't do anything strenuous, but I think she forgot and I spent 5 hours with on and off heavy lifting and dragging things around with all my strength. I was too scared to speak up and I didn't feel terrible, so I did it. Today breathing feels like getting stabbed in the stomach and my body is lead. It's my fault, yay.

Excited for another round. My goals for this round are to continue to log accurately, and to get into the normal weight range for the BMI. I am so close! 143 would put me at the top of the that range.

06/01 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)

06/02 -195.6- (Trend weight 195.0) Ugh. Hate it but it is well deserved from my movie day out-of-town. No TMI x 2 days doesn’t help either. Gonna stay the course today. I already have a roast in the crockpot for dinner tonight and prep cooking for future. I’ll pre-log my day today and try to get some movement in. It’s supposed to be 91 degrees today and I don’t have air conditioning. Exercise will be rough but I’ll think of something.

06/03 -194.6- (Trend weight 195.0) Lots of sleep last night (finally!) A nice little drop on the scale after a day of well-planned meals. However, that small bowl of cereal (unplanned) last night put me over on everything. I’ve got to plan snacks better! I was craving sweets so bad and my sugar-free dark cacao chocolate squares just weren’t going to do it.

06/04 -xxxxx- (Trend weight xxxxx)

6/2 217.7 I decided to make a fasting calendar for the month. I think this will help me. Part of my problem is food waste. I cook enough for several meals & I am the only one that eats leftovers. This month I will do food prep only so meals are quick to throw together.

6/3 218.6 Not sure why I popped up today but I will be fasting until supper tomorrow. I may allow some small things (like celery & hummus) but I will not be eating any full meals.

Hi, I'm Charissa - Round 225

Thank you, again, QuiltingJaine for hosting this challenge!

Starting Round Comments

Round 224 was ok. It was a challenging month with my husband having surgery but he's on the mend and it's time to refocus. I went up a bit but nothing to get overly excited about.

I am a self-proclaimed procrastinator. I set goals to be under 200 by 6/17 - then in my mind I changed it to the time I went on my July trip (7/5). I'm not there and it's highly unlikely that I will make it BUT>>>> I can get really close if I focus during the month of June! So here's goes!!!

62 y/o female
OSW 2022-03 230.3

Doing the math - June fits nicely with 3 10 days challenges
15 (weight to lose to hit 199)/30 days = .5 per day * 10 = 5.00 per challenge
Challenge Goal - 5.00lbs or Weight of 209.
Aggressive - yes and I will be happy and consider it a win if I lose at least half.
Goal: 209 - will be happy with 211.5, ecstatic with anything between 209 and 211🙂

Projection/Actual
6/1 214 /214.2 (+0.2/+0.2) ~ Wrong direction but should be able to easily correct <fingers crossed>. 45 minutes on the treadmill and then will walk at least 30 at lunch. Exercise makes me feel like my body is burning more calories/fat.

6/2 213.5 /214.7 (+0.5/+0.7) ~ Did not walk at lunch yesterday as planned. Dinner was decent. Husband was excited as he had been off pain meds long enough to have a cocktails. He made pomegranate sours. Turn this ship around! It would be about now, that I'd throw up my hands with the All or None mentality, but I'm not going to do that this time. I am going to continue to forge ahead - progress WILL come.

6/3 213 /215.2 (+0.5/+1.2) ~ REALLY...yes, I'm screaming. BUT, since the scale wasn't budging, I measured some key areas, and unless I was really "off" on my original measurements two weeks ago, I've lost 1.5 inches on my waist (well, if you want to call it that🙂 ) and .5 on my hips. Not sure what to make of that but...okay......<edit> I reviewed my day yesterday and I had seafood salad for lunch, then logged it and realized that imitation crab meat is full of carbs and added sugars . Lesson learned, log before eating. Carbs do not play nicely with my body. Had fish and veggies for dinner. So wine + carbs, definitely will equal gain!

Projections for the Round

@itladyee I have an All or None attitude too. It's been my downfall in the past. I am currently tring to redirect it to a smaller scale so when I stuff up I try to get back in track immediately rather than to throw it in waiting for the next day or week. For me it is a tough skill to master. You are so positive and driven. Stick with it because it will be worth it!

Thank you. I'm trying to just take it one day at a time and not throw in the towel.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - Round 225!
