    65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 231 (my 162nd). 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 42 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: time is running out! So, 42 days, 4 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 Round 231
    7/31 142.4 – ugghh ! bad binge day yesterday, must try harder, today is a new day, new week & new round, need to make this round count.
    8/1 141.8 – 8.82 miles walked, 60% exercise calories eaten back.
    8/2 140 - 6.4 miles walked before I went to meet DS’s for day out in Shrewsbury including lunch, made sensible choices, but 103 calories over.
    8/3. 140 -12 53 miles walked, just over a third of exercise calories eaten back.
    8/4. 139.4 - travelled over the border into Wales towing our caravan for a 10 day split venue break with DH. Racked up 5.86 miles walking exploring the local village & immediate surrounding area, 185 calories over.
    8/5. 139.4 - 12.87 miles walked along the Montgomery canal to Newtown & back, today will be more challenging as rain forecast all day & woke up to it!! So a lie in, coffee in bed and dinners crossed for a window! Can't even go swimming cuz I discovered a verruca on the ball of my foot last night😪. Less than 50% exercise calories eaten back.
    8/6 138.8 - terribly wet day yesterday only managed 45 minutes of structured walking, the rest of the 3.42 miles was made up around a garden centre & Powis Castle hence 387 calories over.
    8/7 138.6 - 13.28 miles walked (made up for day before!), Went opposite way along the canal to Berriew, a picturesque Welsh village, had to dodge a few showers! Just over 60% exercise calories eaten back.
    8/8. 138.8 - moved the caravan up to Darley Dale, walked 6.48 miles after we set up, are all exercise calories back.
    8/9

    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 231 129.5
    7/31 130.5 Late post! Went to water fitness, came home, showered, went to help DD#2 at school, came home and had some leftover steak and got on here. Going back to help DD again tomorrow. I’m seriously lacking water today! AF
    8/1 130.5 I thought I did well yesterday. Today will be better. AF
    8/2 130.0 Surprised, this little drop is probably the result of what I ate the day before yesterday. Jimmy John’s Unwich last night but I ate salt and vinegar chips. YUM! Today breakfast out with DH & friend, mani appt, and back to DD’s school to work in library. She got her certification this summer and is officially a librarian not a “teacher working as a librarian.” AF
    8/3 130.5 Okay, stupid, bad behavior yesterday. I had decided before we went that I was going to get steak and eggs but did I tell the waitress no toast or potatoes? No, I did not and then I proceeded to eat it all! That and about a half cup of “me roasted” pecans and almonds was all I ate yesterday. But REALLY, potatoes and toast!!!
    8/4 130.0 2 eggs, In-n-Out Double Double protein style add onion, light lettuce, lots of water and a few fries
    8/5 129.0 Ate lunch of hamburger patty and cheddar and didn’t want dinner, evening snack of 1 oz dry roasted peanuts
    8/6 128.5 I made “Keto Jalapeño Popper Frittata” and ate 1.5 servings at 2pm consequently I was not particularly hungry for dinner. Ate a small piece of pot roast when I fed DH. AF
    8/7 128.5 Great Greek yesterday - steak skewer and small salad, had 2 servings of Brussels sprouts as evening snack. Stayed slightly below all macros. AF
    8/8 128.0 Under macros and calories yesterday, drank lots of water.

    Round 231

    145320379.png

    MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
    ROUND 188 FOR ME.

    “Today….I am choosing Me”

    MY STATS:

    Highest weight ever (05-10-2016): 253
    Original starting weight on MFP: (01-11-2018) 235.0
    R230 EW= 194.2
    R231 EW= TBD


    Current New Goals:
    Weight:
    Short Term Goal: To weigh less at the end of this round than I did at the end of the last round.
    Final goal: 145-155. We’ll see how I look & feel when I get there.
    Exercise: Move 30 minutes per day rotating activity.

    Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 5 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.


    COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain.Black is no change.

    08/07 -195.8- (Trend weight]195.6) I am so glad to see the scale moving back down today. I must have been retaining some fluid because no TMI. Putting my feet up to drain my ankles is really helping. I’ve been working on cleaning up/organizing the basement which has me moving up & down the stairs along with some heavy lifting. But I am pacing myself and working on it a bit everyday so I don’t cause right arm lymphedema issues. I am still up 1.6 lbs from starting weight this round. How much can I accomplish in 2 days? Hmmmm…..I really want to type my end results this round in pink!

    08/08 -194.6- (Trend weight 195.6) Another good day for the books. I am just 0.4 above my starting weight. I don’t know if I can drop yet again on another overnight to at least break even this round. I’m really paying for the 3 days of irresponsibility. The travel day, the festival day and the cereal binge day. I danced for 32 minutes last night but my water intake was low. I’ll try working on that today. I’m going to pre-log my foods again. That seems to really help me stay on track. I just gotta watch it when the night monsters come out teasing of off-plan snacks!

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
