    @tiabirdie56 I must have missed your onederland celebration! Well done! It is a great achievement!!

    @refactored, Thanks so much. No, you didn't miss the onederland celebration, there wasn't any. Besides, I've been here a FEW times 😆 Just putting in the work. My breakthroughs will be 180's and 170's.

    @deepwoodslady, Donna, Owen is a cutie! I kept Grands every day from infancy. 1 until 4yo, two others until 2yo. 7 total years. They are a joy! But the last 2 wreaked havoc on my diet and exercise time. I only had time to eat toast and drink water. My son said I was on the toast diet🤣

    Ok, it is what it is. I went over my calorie goal, well below supposed maintenance. This afternoon I’m going to chart the past month or more of calories and weights to see how my record aligns with MFP and Sailrabbit and adjust from there. I feel really bloated and disgusted with myself, but I’m trying to put an “in control” spin on it. I think I’ll make my bead-free salmon patties for dinner — they’re filling and virtuous.

    8/01 - 185.4, 1456, 45 min.
    Nope, had a measured portion of penne and chicken for dinner, and was really hungry when I got home from dog training in the evening. I’m going to have a very small lunch today, and grilled chicken with cauliflower for dinner. I had a good high-protein breakfast that should hold me through the day. I really think if I ate dinner later, I wouldn’t overeat. DH likes to eat early, so I’m going to have to figure out a system that will work. Sit down with him, warm mine up later? Maybe. For 31+ years, I’ve eaten mainly by his schedule because he’s very scheduled/organized/routine-driven and I’m not, so whatever. But the early dinners just aren’t working for me anymore. Anyone else live with someone with a very different internal food schedule? How do you handle it?

    8/02 - 185, 1836, 40 min.
    Once again, my calories were great until late evening, and then I went on a carb rampage. Ugh.

    8/03 - 185.2, 1542, 65 min.
    Ok, better all around yesterday. I’m off in a few minutes for my post-cataract-surgery checkup with my regular doctor, hoping he clears me for a new prescription—my vision is blurry with my glasses. Yesterday I took Booker to the vet to weigh him — 59 lbs! Then we went to a city park that is a farm and had a lovely walk, and he saw his first chickens. 🐓 Being out there adjusted my attitude a bit — I’ve spent so much of the summer at home pulling weeds, I was kind of down. I realized how I’ve missed getting out to our beautiful parks, so I’ll be doing more of that. Also set some goals for Booker’s training, aiming to be ready for scent/nose work trials this fall, and get serious about tracking and obedience and his advanced trick dog titles. Fun, and something on my mind other than weight and food.

    8/04 - 185, 1551, 45 min.
    I can’t seem to get my calories as low as I’d like, but at least I’m hitting below maintenance the past couple of days. Off to do some dog training! One of these days I need to clean the house….nah! 😂

    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

    Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    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!
    8/1 130.5 I thought I did well yesterday. Today will be better.
    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.”
    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
