Round 238
October 9 - October 18, 2023

Please join us starting on 9/29 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 238.

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

    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.

    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)

    🍁🏈This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

    I’m a 5’2”, soon to be eligible for Medicare girl from the Pacific Northwest. Took a “break” from weighing and logging over the last few months… always a mistake! Gained back 6 or 7 pounds. Round 237 was a good start to moving the number on my scale in the right direction… now to keep the motivation in high gear! So far my strategy includes lots of water and less wine, increasing my daily steps, at least 3 times a week strength training and no munching after dinner. Let’s do this!

    SW RND 237 148.2 🤮
    SW RND 238 145.8 🤠

    Back for another round.

    Jen; 46; 5'4"

    About Me:
    This is my tenth round and really appreciated having someplace to stay accountable.
    Thanks to a medication I'm on for my mental health and an overeating habit, I managed to gain a lot of weight in the last year or so. On July 4, I stepped on the scale for the first time since I started the med (that is known to cause weight gain) and decided enough was enough. I buckled down and started actually recording my food for the first time in over five years and started walking every day. Now I need motivation to keep going. I'm a mom of five and grandma of one 4yo that I babysit during the week when my daughter is working.

    Previous Rounds:
    RND 229 - SW: 287.8; EW: 280.4 (-7.4)
    RND 230 - SW: 280.4; EW: 276.0 (-4.4)
    RND 231 - SW: 276.0; EW: 267.2 (-8.8)
    RND 232 - SW: 267.2; EW: 262.0 (-5.2)
    RND 233 - SW: 262.0; EW: 252.8 (-9.2)
    RND 234 - SW: 252.8; EW: 248.2 (-4.6)
    RND 235 - SW: 248.2; EW: 243.4 (-4.8)
    RND 236 - SW: 243.4; EW: 243.0 (-0.4) :'(
    RND 237 - SW: 243.0; EW: 237.4 (-5.6) !

    Goals:
    * track food every day
    * walk for at least one hour and/or 3 miles every day
    * OR go to the gym and do 15 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes on the treadmill

    Round 238
    heaviest: 294 (7/4/23)
    SW: 237.4
    GW (short term): 235
