Round 240
October 29 - November 7, 2023

Please join us starting on 10/19 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 240.

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

    Oh, yeah! Back for another round.

    Jen; 46; 5'4"

    About Me:
    This is my twelfth 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 239 - SW: 232.8; EW: 226.4 (-6.4)
    Total Lost: 61.4lbs

    R240 ** My 10th round….
    F, 5’6”, 65 yrs young
    Married & MawMaw proud!

    Plan: for this round, I will ⚖️ 10/29 and 11/7. I will continue to record/ measure my daily food/activities, ST 🏋️‍♀️and NSVs.

    SW RND 240 = 132.3lbs
    10/29 ⚖️ 132.3

    11.4k steps, macros ✅
    1402 cal, 135 ex min,
    🔥574 ex cal, 🏋️‍♀️ 🚫

    I’m now realizing the ⚖️ is simply not my endgame - my daily/weekly mindfulness, attitude, choices and healthy habits are the TRUE MEASURE of this journey….

    90 days ago I determined that I wanted to weigh 128-130lbs as my UGW…. (Based on previous results and my high school weight!) But what if that is not optimum for me NOW? Wasn’t that just a guess?

    My 2nd guess is that I need to “lose fat & gain muscle” … so I’m honestly just GUESSING at this point.

    So…. I scheduled an “Inbody Scan” on 11/1 to get a realistic snapshot of my body…. (A more accurate reading of weight, body fat, muscle mass (& distribution) body fat %, water, etc. ). The scan will help me develop a weekly plan to reach the range that is best for my age/body/fitness goals and most importantly …. my closet!)

    I’m so excited!
    Let’s GO!!!🙌🏻💪🏻

    @cchassee I am age 63 with a height of 5' 5.5" I will be very interested to hear the results of your body scan! I agree with your assessment that attitude, choices, healthy habits and mindfulness are the true goals and the ones that will make the biggest difference. I, too guessed at my goals based on my last weight before I ballooned up when I quit smoking so long ago. I'm sure that the experts would put me at a smaller weight than my actual goal. Anyway, anything you can share about your scan would be very helpful!
