Round 230
July 21- 30, 2023

Please join us starting on 7/21 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 230.

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

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

    @huango welcome back!! I fell off the wagon too and finally made my return last round! Didn't make much progress but it at least helped me mentally to be accountable. I hope you find success in your job hunt soon!

    Hi Everyone – Looking forward to my 6th challenge.
    Female, 5’4”, 57 years of age
    HW: 210 (May, 2022)
    CW: 147.4
    GW: still don’t know… it will be a journey… first stop, “healthy BMI,” second stop, “look good in mirror.” I sincerely hope I get there.

    Goals: Continue working on same goals from previous rounds
    Cardio: 8/10 days (only days I struggle with this are Sunday and Wednesday due to lack of time)
    Bodyweight Train: 3/10 days <- The biggest struggle of mine currently. Really need to do this!
    Logging Food: 10/10 days (using a food scale every time!)
    I will be away for the end of this challenge at a family wedding… which doesn’t bode well for me at the end. I also will not be weighing in for those last few days. I am very anxious about being able to stay on track… with obvious indulgences because it’s a wedding… there will be cake… and champagne… 2 things I thoroughly enjoy. Also, no structured work out schedule. It took me from 2/27/23 until 6/15/23 to get out of the 150’s and I really don’t want to have to do that again.

    Hello from Sydney, Australia 👋🏼 back for another round, thanks Jaine! This round my goal is to stay within the 64 range as much as possible, maybe even crack the 63's if I could. I will be able to start adding back some easy exercise as my back injury heals, which hopefully will also help.

    37F 5ft 7 SW 67.5kg round 225
    GW 60kg
    21 July 64.5kg 32.4% body fat
    I binged on snacks a little last night after I tried to go to a class but couldn't find the building, and for some reason this got me feeling low. I wanted a block of chocolate but instead went for some smoosh balls, you know those ones made of dates etc? So it was a healthier option in terms of Ingredients, but still a lot of carbs and sugar and calories. Somehow the scale still went down today, but perhaps will see the effects tomorrow 🫤 I did walk a fair bit yesterday, so hopefully that has helped to burn off some of those snacks. I otherwise ate really well. I really need to try harder at my emotional eating. 🙏🏼🌟💖

    65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 230 (my 161st). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
    Goal this round is yet again the same as last; to get back under and stay under 139. Holiday to Menorca is now in 52 days, I still need to crack on & lose a few pounds I’ll be needing to purchase a bigger size in holiday clothes and I do not want to do that. So, 52 days, 5 rounds at a pound per round should easily get me to where I want to be, only I can do it, I’ve done it before so I can do it again if I knuckle down!! Really try to stay 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!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

    SW RND 230 139.2
    7/21 139.2 - No structured walking as childminding little DGS, so 168 calories over, but no binge, in fact 6 days binge free, let’s keep it that way.

    Hello from Sydney, Australia 👋🏼 back for another round, thanks Jaine! This round my goal is to stay within the 64 range as much as possible, maybe even crack the 63's if I could. I will be able to start adding back some easy exercise as my back injury heals, which hopefully will also help.

    I binged on snacks a little last night after I tried to go to a class but couldn't find the building, and for some reason this got me feeling low. I wanted a block of chocolate but instead went for some smoosh balls, you know those ones made of dates etc? So it was a healthier option in terms of Ingredients, but still a lot of carbs and sugar and calories. Somehow the scale still went down today, but perhaps will see the effects tomorrow 🫤 I did walk a fair bit yesterday, so hopefully that has helped to burn off some of those snacks. I otherwise ate really well. I really need to try harder at my emotional eating. 🙏🏼🌟💖

    "Smoosh balls" is now my favorite snack name!! Seems like a pretty wise choice!
