    @CamandJarvis Look back at what you ate 2 or 3 days ago. That will probably explain the loss.

    @deepwoodslady one thing I like about our neighborhood (over 55) is no temptation to eat that junk because there are no kids. DGD posted a pic of our DGGS, her baby. He’s 16 months now.ja6er1lxfpk6.jpeg

    @deepwoodslady Donna, be certain to remain upright for AT LEAST 30 minutes after taking Fosamax. I took it for about 15 years before and after I retired. Been back on it because I went from osteopenia to osteoporosis during the pandemic. I get a new Dexa in April.

    Yes, they did tell me about staying upright for at least 30 minutes. That's why I've chosen to take it on Fridays when I'm up so early for the school bus/DGS but yet I don't drink any coffee right away because I'll be laying back down. I'm up about 1 1/2 hours with him before I lay back down so it is going to work perfect. Sometimes no school on Friday's but I'll figure that one out later.

    Thanks for mentioning that. It may help others as well. I am still in the osteopenia stage with issues at my back, L1 through L4. They say no bending at the waist and no twisting at the waist. WTH? How am I supposed to do ANYTHING, especially dance? Not a happy camper right now. I've been dancing anyway but I will try to bend at the knees and not at the back when picking things up. Neck bone and hip bone looked okay for my age so that's good.

    Back for another round.

    Jen; 46; 5'4"

    About Me:
    This is my eleventh 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) !
    RND 238 - SW: 237.4; EW: 232.8 (-4.6)
    Total Lost: 55lbs

    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 239
    heaviest: 294 (7/4/23)
    SW: 232.8
    GW (short term): 220
    RGW: 229

    10/19 - 231.8 - 3.33 miles - Got out for my walk late because I was working on notes for a story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo. Then I had to cut the walk short because I took too long and needed to pick my daughter up from work. Still got in a good amount of walking anyway. Then I just spend the whole day writing backstories for minor characters and having way too much fun. But it kept me from thinking about snacking all day.

    10/20 - 231.8 - 3.7 miles - Did an extra long walk and then got a little more exercise later walking down to the creek near our house. It's a very steep walk that switch backs a couple times with stairs that are like 10" high. It's just a rough walk, but my daughter wanted to do her senior pictures on what looks like the last nice day before the pictures are due (in two weeks). So down I went. Took like hundred pictures and we only liked a few and most of those wouldn't be acceptable for the school (not the right pose) but she wants to put them on her instagram instead. So now I have to spend the weekend going through the pictures, picking the best ones and editing them in photoshop. Hopefully we can find one that really works.

    10/21 - 231.0 - 3.57 miles - The weather has taken a turn. It was in the 70s and sunny the last few days, but the temps are supposed to continue to drop the next two weeks with rain. Today was in the 60s and dreary out, but the rain stayed away for my entire walk. In fact, it was just when I got back to the house that I started to feel sprinkles. So perfect timing. Made flounder for supper. Couldn't decide on a recipe to try so just did a bunch and everyone took small pieces of the different kinds to decide which was their favorite. Me and my oldest daughter like the plain butter and dill ones the best while my son and grandson like the one with breadcrumbs and parmesan. I didn't even have a recipe for the dill one, I just had a taste for dill (I even put some on my mashed potatoes) and I know it pairs well with fish. The fish was a big success and now I think I know which ones I'll make next time.

    10/22 - 230.6 - 3.58 miles - Waited to do my walk until after the football game was over which was around 1pm. That was a good choice because it was raining when I got up at 8:30am, and when the game ended it was dreary but only sprinkled a little on the entire 75 minutes I was out. It's supposed to be like this most of this week, but next week the rains are supposed to come on strong (just in time for Halloween, of course). I'll be taking walks outside for as long as I possibly can.

    10/23 - 229.4 - 3.64 miles - Pulled out a pair of sweats I bought a couple years ago that got too small. They were comfy standing up but my ankles/calves were so swelled that when I sat, the cuffs would cut off circulation in my legs and hurt. I had to tie them tight because the elastic was too loose. They're still too snug for my liking when I sit down (I just like really loose clothes), but they're going to be perfect for walking now that the temperatures are dropping. Dropped below 230lbs for the first time in probably 20 years. I'm still in shock at how much weight I've lost in this short of time. I never thought I'd see the scale in the 220s again. And here I am aiming for under 200 and thinking I might actually do it this time (I've done calorie tracking before but always gave up after a month or two but it's really stuck this time). Every time I think about having a "cheat" day or giving up or whatever, I look at the most recent number and think, do I really want to take two steps back? I know I'll get back down again, but do I really want to waste two days doing it? So far the answer has always been no and I just keep carrying on losing weight.

    10/24 - 230.2 - 2.34 miles (walk) - 3.9 miles (bike) - The rains started so I headed to the gym today. There was no one around so decided to use the weight machines. I did the lightest weight on the bench press, lightest weight for the butterfly one (15lbs) and 30lbs on the pulldown machine. I did 3 sets of 10 reps each. Will probably add some more sets next time. I then did my regular bike for 15 minutes and walk for 30 minutes on the treadmill. Sadly, I was back over 230lbs this morning. Guess I overestimated the amount of steak I had for lunch and rice/stir fry for dinner. Not a big deal. I cut back on both when I had leftovers and now I have a bunch of extra calories left (might have a bag of popcorn later). We'll see how it goes tomorrow. Hoping to see it back to 229 something.

    10/25 - 228.2 - 3.63 miles - Had to watch my grandson today. Could have gone on my walk before my husband left for work but decided to wait until my daughter got home around 3pm. It was a good choice because it rained all morning and stopped by the time I went for my walk so I got to stay outside instead of going to the gym. And I wasn't feeling those arm exercises last night, but they sure caught up with me today. Ouch.

    10/26 - 228.4 - 2.43 miles (walk) - 3.8 miles (bike) - It wasn't raining today, but it was really chilly when I left around noon. And my daughter has stolen my warm hoodie and won't give it back. So I went to the gym. Did some more arm exercises (so sore now) and my usual routine of 15 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes on the treadmill, but I upped it to 3.1mph which was definitely pushing me more than usual (my average speed outside is 2.7mph which is what I usually start at). Had the last of the stir fry chicken and veggies (with no rice) for lunch which was not much. Then we had turkey tacos for dinner. I'm still kind of hungry since I didn't have much lunch so I shall distract myself with outlining my novel that I will start writing in *checks notes* six days. Yikes. I can't believe October is almost over.

    10/27 - 227.6 - 3.49 miles - Was nice and sunny today if a bit chilly. I was comfortable in a light sweater for most of it because walking gets me sweaty. Until the wind started gusting. That sucked and then I'd get into a shady area where the wind was gusting and just ugh. Couldn't wait to get home. Other than that, I haven't gotten anything done today.

    10/28

    ---
    @jlwalker6 This is my 19th NaNo I think. A couple weeks ago, I counted up all my wins and I think it was 8. It took me four tries before I won the first time in 2008. It's been hit or miss pretty much my entire time.

    Want to stay under 140 this round, hopefully lose a pound and get heart rate back under 50 beats a minute, then longer term goal to get back to 135 in time for Christmas (10 weeks !).
    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 239
    10/19 140.4 – should have known it would bounce up again!! 7.01 miles walked, all calories plus 142 eaten back.
    10/20 139.8 – no structured walking yesterday as childminding little DGS, calories 270 over. Today is forecast torrential rain so little chance of a walk, need to pull back eating.
    10/21 139.8 – no structured walking again yesterday – rain all day & heavy at times, we are so lucky where we live that we have no floods, my heart goes out to those in other areas of the UK that are washed out of their homes, not being able to walk pales into insignificance, I count my blessings. 88 calories over.
    10/22 140.4 – it seems I’m not solidly under 140 yet! 9.7 miles walked yesterday, 86% exercise calories eaten back.
    exercise.png

    10/23 139.8 - 9.53 miles walked, 50% exercise calories eaten back. Halfway through the round & I am pleased to report no binges; let’s keep it up!
    10/24 139.8 – for the second morning running the scale teased me with 139.2 and then at the last second bounced back up :( ; it’ll come! 8 miles walked yesterday; less than 20% exercise calories eaten back. NSV – clothes look and feel a better fit & I feel better, I’m keeping the faith!
    10/25 139.8 – 8.47 miles walked, 60% exercise calories eaten back.
    10/26 139.6 – 12.53 miles walked yesterday, a tad less than 50% exercise calories eaten back.
    10/27 139.6 – no structured walking yesterday as childminding little DGSs, hence calories over. Away for the weekend in the caravan, not be taking the scales; I‘ll be classing this weigh in as the end of the round and Monday as the start weight for the next round. I shall endeavour to stay in control & will still check in. NSV – resting heart rate has reduced by 3 beats per minute (51), I’m getting there! And almost got into a binge last night, but stopped myself after eating 2 small chocolate bars - that's often a trigger to keep going & going & going!!
    10/28 DNW - no structured walking again yesterday as I had too many commitments on and too little time in-between 🥲, hence 188 calories over. However, my 'more generous generous sized' trousers which I am currently having to wear are now quite baggy & I'm start starting to eye up my more skinny jeans! A good walk to Henley-on-Arden from the site planned today.

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE & I AM WHAT I EAT!!!!!

    Round 239
    Oct 19 – Oct 28, 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 MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
    GW Maintaining between 124 - 126

    Continuing to figure out maintaining, and 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. Hubby and I seeing our family home and downsizing 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!

    SW: 124.2

    Day/Weight/Comment

    10/19 – 125.4 Homemade egg McMuffin, English muffin with PB, 2 large decafs, later donut and more decaf, later than normal dinner of linguini with clam and cream sauce, and lots of garlic bread. Carb, carb, carb and no food from the perimeter of the grocery store. Fully expected the number, but weight is still acceptable. Need to make sure I keep reporting in.

    10/20 – 124.2 We have hired a team of 4 women to add care for my mother. They will be there from 7 am to 9 pm. They will replace much of the assistance from my mother’s assisted living facility. Her apartment will still receive all the cleaning/maintenance services, and she will still have her emergency lanyard which will be available to her for overnights. She had been fighting the idea, then it seems something changed. She seemed to brighten up

    10/21 – 125.6 Went out to eat for dinner, and then later got into the half gallon of ice cream that my sister needed me to purchase……

    10/22 – 125.0 More not following planned eating, and nutrition is not the focus at the moment. Last night was first time being home at dinner time in a week, we went to grab subs. While there, I got the call that my father passed. After being with him yesterday, it was honestly a blessing, and I know he is at peace and not in pain. Mother does not yet know. Will be heading her way in a bit. Fortunately, her full time aids start today, and should have already arrived for the day.

    10/23 – 124.4

    10/24 – 124.6 I was a little out of hand yesterday, so pleasantly surprised that I stayed steady. I need to get back to proper tracking and having my calories made up of healthier food choices.

    10/25 – 123.8 Not sure how that is possible, but grateful.

    10/26 – 125.4 Total bender yesterday. But a single day does not concern me. Overall, happy with this number for my 62nd birthday. Even this number is over 20 lb less than my 61st. Now to make sure 63 is as good as 62! :)

    10/27 – 125.6 Out to dinner last night for birthday dinner. Overate a somewhat, but came home with leftovers which is unusual for me. I have always been a member of the clean plate club.

    10/28

    I'm a member of that club too, find it so hard not to clear my plate even if I've eaten enough! 2 out of 4 of my little DGC only eat until they are no longer hungry, I wish I was like them!!

    @CamandJarvis Look back at what you ate 2 or 3 days ago. That will probably explain the loss.

    @deepwoodslady one thing I like about our neighborhood (over 55) is no temptation to eat that junk because there are no kids. DGD posted a pic of our DGGS, her baby. He’s 16 months now.ja6er1lxfpk6.jpeg

    SW RND 239: 129.4#
    Goals: Strength training 5x/week; follow nutrition plan; 64 oz water daily; maintain wt 128#; minimal to zero alcohol

    10/19 127.9# I almost fell off the scale this morning. 128# has been my MFP goal weight to reach before my 70th BD next month since the beginning of the year. I didn’t expect this as I was out of town and not using my home scale. Frankly now that I hit that number I don’t really care. I just want to be a healthy and strong bada$$ 70 year old woman to inspire my kids.
    10/20 128.6# ST ✅ nutrition plan✅ no ETOH✅ need to up H2O
    10/21 129.4# I indulged in pasta and a lovely white wine last evening. Back to plan today. Heading out for a walk now that the rain ended. Have a great week everyone.
    10/22 128.8# Yesterday was cardio day so I took a great hike among the glorious New England trees. Afternoon was football and rest which I needed.
    10/23 I think I messed up and missed a day
    10/24 128.6#
    10/25 129.0# Working on an attitude of gratitude today. My head needs an adjustment. Gym day.
    10/26 127.6# ST ✅ ; A good workout is good for the head.
    10/27 127.8# “Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.”
    10/28 129.0# ST done and got a walk in yesterday. Then had dinner out at a German restaurant- I over ate. On to the next round.

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

    10/19 129.0 Well, that’s a shock! I baked cookies yesterday - shortbread and Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies. The keto cookies were SOOO good! Last night was candidates night. I think it went well.
    10/20 128.0 My fur baby, Oskar, has a UTI and according to the docs office his weight is now 17.3#. I don’t know how he can gain when being fed the amount of food for a 9# cat!
    10/21 127.5 Stress, my head is throbbing
    10/22 127.5 Studio Strut week 2. It was a good day but Oskar is not really eating.
    10/23 129.0 Didn’t go to bed until 2:30 am, DH’s alarm went off at 6:15. Art Quilts,etc meeting this morning. I have Dr this afternoon. Cat seems to be doing better.
    10/24 127.5 after TMI
    10/25 128.0 Dermatology appointment yesterday was good and quick. Went to help daughter with projects for Fall Students Giant Farmers Market. Produce grown in school gardens and crafts made (mostly) by kids for sale to raise money for next season’s gardens. The project I was working on involved a hot glue gun - not a kid friendly item but the kids had cut out ghosts for Halloween and “Christmas” trees for winter. Today DH and I are going to lun-ner with neighbor friend who is driving back to Chicago on Friday. DSIL is very sick, youngest DGD seems to be getting sick, DD realized her throat was scratchy last night.
    10/26 129.0 Golden Corral with friend - need I say more? Oskar is feeling better. He woke me at 3:47 for breakfast which was already available on his dish in the kitchen! DD#2 texted at 4:40 then DH got up at 5. Glad I went to bed “early” - 10:45. LOL😂😢😭
    Tried to get into “community” but MFP has a problem. Hope I remember to try later.
    10/27 129.0 Honestly, I thought today would be higher than yesterday since I was sort of a pig at GC the other day.
    ⭐️⭐️⭐️Late update! I went to the gym for the first time in over 1000 days! Walked on the treadmill for about 40 minutes total and used my 2 favorite “machines” - Hip Adductor and Hip Abductor I didn’t set them to a crazy high weight because I want to not take several days to recover. YAY ME! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
    10/28 130.5 Went to lunch, had burger with bun and onion rings - truly an indulgence for which I am going to pay. Lots of leftovers in the fridge. Awake ridiculously early (3:30) as DH is taking neighbors to the airport and he has no idea how much noise he makes when he gets up. I’m usually awake long before he is. It’s going to be a long day.

    Day, Weight, Comment

    10/26 - 187
    Didja miss me? Our internet has been out since 10/20, finally fixed yesterday. I’d go to a nearby Starbucks once a day, sit in the parking lot, and check email, but that’s about all. I felt a bit isolated, but also, with no tv, got a lot of reading and knitting done! But we’re happy to have it fixed, finally — they had to run a new cable. So, I’m baaaaack! I did weigh in every morning, but didn’t record my weights. No biggie. 😁

    10/27 - 187.2
    I took a nice long walk this morning with Charlie, who has been here 3 weeks now. He’s a really sweet guy and keeps me laughing. Here’s a pic from this morning—the video is hilarious as he bounces and runs around Mike the cat. 😊 Laughter has to be good for weight loss!

    10/28 - 186.8
    Ok, down a smidge. I did have popcorn last night, but overall I’m doing better with nighttime snacking, so that’s good. See you next round!

    10/26 -183.6- (Trend weight 185.9)

    10/27 -DNP- (Trend weight DNP) I’m having great difficulty with weigh-ins on Fridays. I get up at 6:15-6:30 to get my DGS ready for school and to the bus stop at 7:30. I chose that day to take my (once per week) new Fosamax medicine which I must take with 8-10 oz of water away from food or other meds. Since I lay back down at 8:00 am it’s the perfect day to take it. If I could get my booty to bed earlier it would solve all the problems. I could just take meds immediately following a weigh in. However, I don’t go to bed until 3 or 4 am every night so I am not tired on Thursday nights (which is why I lay back down.) If I weigh on Friday morn before I take the Fosamax and all the water, it is too close to the time I actually went to bed - Too close to my last liquids and/or snacks. If I take it when I get up from my morning nap, it is too close to the medication and the 8-10 oz of water. Sorry for the long explanation but if you find that I am not weighing on Fridays, you’ll understand why. Never, under these circumstances, will my weigh-in reflect any actual progress so it may be best to just skip it since I feel it will always be inaccurate. With that being said, I will say that yesterday was a good day. Diet was on point, exercise was good. Strength training was accomplished. I feel good going into the weekend.

    10/28 -183.4- (Trend weight 185.5) I ate back 75% of my exercise calories yesterday but managed to stay under the MFP overall goal. I rarely eat back my EC’s. I am down 2.4 pounds this round. I know I could have done a bit better but I’m happy and grateful for what comes my way. This was a round filled with progress and NSV’s for so many. It’s nice to share in all the successes. See you next round! Thanks @quiltingjaine for the DGGS pics. He’s beautiful!

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