This is my first time doing this challenge! My weight has been moving in the wrong direction lately (thanks in part to buying way too much Halloween candy), so I need something to push me a little harder and hopefully see my weight come back down.

SW: 138.3
Gw: 136.0
UGW: 125

@Zaxa2021 Thanks so much for choosing to join our group. It's a wonderful place to land. A safe space to share. I hope you will love it as much as I do. Welcome!

3rd round for me! Thanks for starting these threads @quiltingjaine

5'7" woman, 41 years old

HGW: 327 in 2010
SGW on MFP: 301
SGW this round: 269.2
GW this round: 267.5

11/8: 269.2 this morning! I am hoping this puts me firmly in the 260's. Woke up this morning to news that we are going to need home repairs - kind of stressing. However, I am looking forward to baking these acorn squash--If imma be stress eating it will at least be some high fiber vitamin packed healthy business 😄

Day/Weight/Comment
11/07 …..183.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

11/08 -182.6- (Trend weight 184.1) I find it so interesting, amazing even, all the different approaches to weight loss in these challenges. A food that one will not touch another wants more of in their diet. Some calorie intakes are double what others are eating and still they lose weight at a steady and safe rate. Truly there is more than way to conquer. Many of us have health issues that lead to certain diets etc. It seems key that we have to self-reflect. Whatever got us into this mess (carbs or calories or lack of fruits/veggies, or lack of exercise), this is what we must reverse to reverse the damage it has caused. Each one of our stories are as different as our approaches. All paths are right. I just want each and every one of you to know how much I appreciate you for how you open your homes, your families, your struggles, your achievements, your research, your medical histories, your lives with the the rest of us. You are helping so many and making such a tremendous difference, not just in your own lives, but in the lives of the rest of us too. Thank you for that. Truly, thank you. Good luck this round everyone!

Perhaps I misspoke. We are headed to East Grinstead to stay at a Landmark trust house. We stayed at Purton Green on our last visit. I adored it.

I'd never heard of The Landmark Trust so I Googled it! They have some amazing properties! We only tend to book cottages in the UK when we go away with our children & grandchildren as we have a touring caravan, but it there is anytime when we want to book a self catering property then we will definitely look at the Landmark Trust. Hope you have an amazing time .

I have done a couple of these, but not in a long time, and I think those were 30 day versions. I also have never been comfortable posting my weight publicly. For some reason, that has changed in my mind today. Anyway, happy to jump on this 10 day!

Goals:
1. Track food every day
2. Walk at least 20 minutes 3 times
3. At least 3 "workouts". In quotes because I am starting with lower intensity physical therapy work and stretching that my body really needs right now.

@jspecies11 you are my birthday twin! I hit the big Medicare 65 on Saturday. Going to celebrate it by going to the Oregon State football 🏈 game. Maybe I will get my steps in if we have to park very far away!

🍁🏈10 more days of my life🏈🍁

My goal for this go around is to find the number on the scale to be smaller than today’s number. Hoping for the 137’s. I have several birthday events this go around, including my own, so this may take some creativity! Will continue to keep my steps 👣 above 10,000, guzzle the 💧water, log my ✏️ food, and hit the gym at least 3 times a week. No munching 🚫 after 8:00 pm and limit my alcohol 🍷 intake. Come on people!

About Me:

This is my thirteenth round and really appreciate 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. We live in the Pacific Northwest where we're entering the rainy season which makes walking a lot harder, and it's my main form of exercise right now. I do have access to gym equipment at our HOA clubhouse, but I still have to walk there and back (takes about 9 minutes).

Previous Rounds:

RND 229 - SW: 287.8; EW: 280.4 (-7.4)

11/8 - 220.4 - 3.82 miles - Made pizza tonight. As always, it's a long, arduous project, but so worth it in the end. I made a half pizza for myself with fat free mozzarella and turkey pepperoni. It didn't look very appealing because the cheese didn't really melt well (as expected), but it tasted surprisingly good. I think it was the extra stuff I put in the sauce. I'm stuffed and sore all over. Started cooking at 3:30 and sat down to eat a little before 6pm after cleaning up the kitchen except for where the cut pizzas are (will clean that later). I shouldn't have to cook until Saturday I think. There are a lot of leftovers (besides the pizza). Tomorrow I have a job interview and I'm getting really nervous. I need this job because it's the only place I can get to without a car, but also the thought of going back to work after almost 24 years is terrifying.
