Looks slow to you. Looks fast to me. You're losing in a week about what I'm losing in a month. But I'm hanging in there. It will eventually be gone. Perspective.7 -

About Me:This is my fourteenth 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).

RGW: 214
11/18 - 216.0 - no exercise - Worked for four hours today. About an hour and a half on the computer and then the rest behind the meat/seafood counter. It was a littler overwhelming, but we closed early because several people called in sick and the only person left that knew what they were doing had been there since like 5am or something. So I worked until 5. Then got home and found my husband had made burgers for dinner in the cast iron pan. The kitchen was a mess. So I spent an hour unloading the dishwasher (my 13yo did help with that without me even asking), then cleaned up from dinner, washed the pans and cleaned the counters and stove. I finally sat down to eat my own meal at 6. And again, I feel stuffed. Like so full, I feel sick. And I had less than last night or the night before. Not sure what's going on with my stomach, but I guess I'll have to cut back portions so I don't feel sick at work (I was eating the food I had taken for my lunch break). Overall, it was a good day.
11/19 - 215.0 - no exercise - Worked a little over six hours today. Wasn't really hungry during it. I had a salad like 45 minutes before I started then worked 4 hours before taking my break. My husband got me me a sandwich from Walmart that said it was about 420 calories. So I added some stuff to it and had it for dinner. It was filling but didn't make me feel sick like the last two days. But once I got home, I started getting the same upset stomach. So still not sure what's causing it, but I'll figure it out (or it'll just go away on its own.
11/20 - 215.2 - no exercise - Had to call in sick to work today. On my third day working behind the counter. I woke up with my throat so sore this morning, I could barely talk. Like literally my voice was gone. And I felt lightheaded and kind of weak. I took a bunch of cold medicine and hoped it would get better by 9:30 even with all the pain relievers I could take, I was still in a lot of pain and felt warm to the touch. So I called in. I felt so bad because they're short-staffed (which is why I was hired), and I'm already calling out and probably will have to tomorrow, too. Then Wed/Thur are my normal days off. I hope I'm feeling better by Friday. This cold is also messing with my weight loss because when I'm sick, I want to eat all the comfort food and I definitely don't want to exercise so even if I wasn't working, I wouldn't be out walkin either. I ate way to much today, but it's not the end of the world.
11/21 - 213.0 - no exercise - Missed work again today. My throat felt a million times better when I got up, but I was still lightheaded and weak. Like I felt find just sitting around, but as soon as I got up and started moving, I'd get dizzy. And moving my arms and legs... felt like I was lifting 20lb weights with each movement, leaving me worn out and sore just like going up the stairs or whatever. I did manage to make some stir fry for dinner. I have no idea why my weight fell so much overnight. I ate A LOT yesterday. I had Kraft mac & cheese with a hot dog on bread for lunch, a nice portion of pork roast with instant potatoes and a bunch of veggies for dinner and way too many veggie straws. I was really craving comfort food with how sick I felt.

11/18: 267--resting today. Slept in super late and decided to keep that going, so I just left to do necessities and got right back into pajama mode. Made chopped chicken breast and broccoli over a baked potato for dinner and it was exactly what i needed.
11/19: 266.6. I weighed myself three times in a row to see if it was true 😂 I tried on a pair of jeans I bought online last year that were too small. They didn't just zip, they actually fit 🏆
11/20: 266. I'm going to have to get a big, big coffee today if I'm going to get anything done. I did my grocery shopping online last night so i will gave some real food to pick up on the way home tonight. I'm doing my best to eat well before Thanksgiving. However, i am not getting enough sleep, which for some reason makes me hungrier so it's a good thing I'll have a bunch of fruit this evening. Vacation starts tomorrow (why did i not request today off too? 😆). Looking forward to more mushrooming over the break.
11/21: DNW today. I'm thinking it might be a good idea to just weigh at the end of the challenge and keep counting calories through the week. Since i know my weight will fluctuate more over the holiday and probably for a few days afterward, I will hold off and see if i have maintained my weight or if it's changed and go from there.

Hi everyone, I’m joining a bit late. I’ve been using mfp about 10 years and rather than losing I have gained through all this years. I lost weight only two times and one was with Saxenda I immediately gained back after stopping (so not recommended), and the other time I lost very slowly but gained it back in a few years. So here I am trying again. Most of my trials ended up in a few weeks, I hope this time I turn it to a lifestyle.

Oh the Turkey day round, what fun,. This should be interesting. I wander, do people just skip this round? lol. No guts no glory, lets do it to it . I'm not much for the holiday gluttony these days so I feel pretty confident that I can still lose a pound or two. We shall see. Best of luck to all.
SW RND 242 : 259.8 (-14.6 YTD)
Rnd 242 goal: -1.00 lb
11/18 259.8 This is the lowest I have been in a couple of years. I am down 14 on the year and feel like I have finally turned the corner. I would love to see 249 on new years day or less so who knows we have time. Weekends are always tough but I think this one will be fine. Monday morn weigh in will be good.
11/19 I really don't weigh daily as the wt. fluctuates so much. I will prolly weigh tomorrow. I am trying hard to log it and own it daily and its a struggle but I will keep at it. I had about 11,000 steps yesterday and some yard labor so that feels good. Fasted, ate well, prolly to much salt.See yall tomorrow. Have a great one.

11/18. Was up most of the night the night before, so yesterday I dragged all day. Whats up with my sleeping patterns? ?!! I managed to get in a pretty good fat-burning work out yesterday but my steps were 🚫5k, ✅cal, macros, 65 min ex , 43 min cal 🔥 in Z 3. Stretch /agility.
11/19 Yesterday: 🚫 🚶♀️5k, ✅cal, macros, 61 ex min, 20 min Z3,🔥485 cal, 🏋️♀️20 min with DGS. We also played 30 minutes of basketball and it was so much fun! Very hard for me to stay in Z2&3 HR. Beautiful day.
NSV: Chose to walk with my grandson, taking our two pups to the vet and then picked them up an hour later… Before this journey, would’ve easily used the car. Walking with my grandson provided more great 1:1 time with him and 3k+ steps.
Slept 10 hrs last night. Today: stretch, tennis 🏋️♀️ and min 10k steps.
11/20 Yesterday: 🙆♀️🎾 🏋️♀️🚶♀️12+k steps, 💓Z3 90min, (total workout 196 minutes) 1234 cal & 🔥1106 total cal. Haven’t yet determined how to measure “fat cal 🔥” when not isolated. So for now measuring all calories “🔥” during workouts via Apple Watch & “Zones”.
After tennis, I walked extra, then walked 2+ miles RT to the grocery (mindful of HR zones). Then spent another hour pieceing together strength training/calisthenics/stretching options… Since I have the luxury of time on my side, I’m having fun with it. So much to learn!
Slept well but up at 4am. Still have energy this morn so let’s see what my day brings…
🙆♀️, 🎾, 🚶♀️, 🏋️♀️? Trying to ready myself for 🦃!
Planning for restraint. I’m not crazy about Thanksgiving eats, so I’m not overly concerned. BUT, It’s the 🍷that will be ever-so-tempting!
We are thrilled to meet our sixth grandchild Thursday!
Good luck to all! This 🦃 I’m not cooking so I’m fortunate to not be nibbling / eating for 3-4 days. Working out instead….
11/21 Yesterday: 🚶♀️12.2k, ✅cal 1321, macros, 71 ex min, 40 min Z2,🔥249 fat cal, 🔥375 total.
Figuring out how to utilize the “zones” app. Need to isolate a “fat- burning” workout on its own. I burn less calories per minute but the benefit is burning stored fat – a strategy to help achieve my fitness goal to “lose fat and gain muscle”. We’ll see how all that works out… experimenting till early January - for next InBody.
And, ngl , I am sincerely curious/wondering why scale results haven’t drifted lower… Not bothered by it, but I definitely continue a daily calorie deficit so there’s that….. Figuring out my body for sure. I’m patient and committed. Doing hard things. 💪🏻😎
All are on different paths and have unique goals. A commonality is that THIS is truly a battle of the mind. I can’t tell you how many times a day I have to CHANGE MY SELF-TALK. Be kind to yourself and stay determined. Keep your promises. Daily affirmations work!
11/22. Slept great last night, but up way too early again… Yesterday was disciplined. (A very good thing!).
🚶♀️11.1k, ✅cal 1408, macros, 92 ex min, 66 min Z2,🔥405 fat cal, 🔥631 total.
Two structured walks. Literally FORGOT to 🏋️♀️. Tells me my routine needs to get automated. I was super hungry around 1030am so I enjoyed an early big lunch (protein). Afternoon - beef broth and lots of 💦 - small dinner.
Traveling today. Will try to get in walk/ 🏋️♀️ before we leave… But if I can’t, I can’t.
Bringing hard-boiled eggs, protein and electrolytes for car. Checked out the menus for the restaurant tonight - will order salmon. My BIL mixes the worlds best martini so I MAY enjoy one!

HW 172lbs in 2010.
UG 130lbs ceiling
(+ 3lbs muscle/-3lbs fat) Next InBody 1/1/2024
In Aug 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take control of my health. I lost 30 pounds by 1/1/2015. Weight topped @ 130-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
2020 - 2021, I fluctuated between 130 - 135lbs. Two more good years.
2022 crept up to 140lbs by 8/1. Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held steady till 12/31.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15. 15lbs BOOM! Just enjoyed eating way too much! Started tracking. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are!
I learned my choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight/fitness trends. My goal is to reach 130lbs as a ceiling. Pretty clear to me that once I reached my 60s, I would reach a goal weight and then go backwards. Thank goodness 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.

11/22 - Holiday party last night. It went well and I had a ton of fun. I'm sure I went over my calories, but the food was good and I enjoyed myself and I didn't track it. There were all sorts of finger foods and I don't really know how I would begin to track it all. I didn't go too crazy, so I'm going to take that as a win.
Previous Comments:
11/18 - I ended Round 241 yesterday at 244lbs. And woke up to 241.2lbs this morning. I've been constipated for a few days and now I'm not. Chalking the drastic change up to that. Beginning today I want to add exercise to my program. I have somewhat limited mobility so I'm only going to aim for 15 minutes per day. The low goal is doable for me and motivating when I get it done. I plan to add 5 minutes a week until I get where I want to be. Excited for another round. It really feels like I can do anything for 10 days! 💪👏🥳
11/19 - I went over my calories by a good bit yesterday. The culprit was some honey roasted peanuts that hubby brought. Soooo many calories for hardly any food. But I kept going by and grabbing a palmful. He's going to have to put those in his work truck and take them to work. I'm too new at this to have tempting high cal food in the house.
We also worked really hard on our house yesterday. We have some minor remodel projects plus trying to get some deep cleaning done because we have family coming Saturday for thanksgiving (our 2nd one.) For the last few years I haven't had the energy for deep cleaning and we haven't really been able to have people over, but the house, and thereby we, are suffering. So it's all hands on deck. The good news about deep cleaning is that I'm up and moving more. Bad news is that I get very sick (fibromyalgia) every time I'm overly active, and if course there's a super fine line there.
I didn't "exercise" yesterday but I was on my feet and moving for the majority of the day. I burned over 400 calories just in steps and not counting standing and lifting things. Got a lot more work to do today, too.
11/20 - Good day yesterday. I was well under my calorie limit. I made fried rice for dinner and used a commercial teriyaki sauce that had a lot of sodium, so I'm probably retaining water. We got a lot more work done on the house so I know I burned some calories. I doubled my step goal for the day. Sometimes the scale just doesn't reflect what you're doing no matter what. But my clothes are fitting better already and I can see a difference in my face.
But ultimately I want to focus on health. Weight loss and body composition changes are wonderful but I just want to learn to enjoy making healthy choices and being healthy.
Oh, and I saw a tip on a YouTube video to keep an 8-16 oz jar by the fridge and fill it up and drink it every time you go into the kitchen. I'm doing more like every other time, but I've vastly increased the oz of water I'm drinking each day with that one little change. 💦🌊
11/21 - Holding steady. Still trucking along. I have my first holiday party to attend tonight with my Bible study group. Luckily for me most of the food won't be available to me since I'm vegetarian. I'm taking a veggie tray so there will be something healthy there. But at the same time, I plan to enjoy myself. If I go a little over on calories, so be it.7 -

11/18 - 149.6 - I had half a meatball sandwich last night, so no surprise. We're celebrating my stepdaughter's birthday with more Italian food tonight so I'm going to have to watch what I eat the rest of the weekend.
11/19 - DNW
11/20 - 151.6 - I ate a lot more high sodium/carb food than I should have.
11/21 - 150.7

I'm a married, mom to 2 year old twins. 35 years old, 5'3.
SW RND 242: 136.7
GW RND: 135
UGW: 125
11/18: 137.5. I expected to be up a bit today. I went out to eat last night, and tried to carb load for the Spartan race I'm doing today. I perform better when I eat the day before a big event.
11/19: 138.5. Again, not surprised. I did a Spartan race yesterday, and indulged in a big meal afterward. I'm also a little sore. Definitely some water weight at play.
11/20: 137.3. Had a pretty lazy day yesterday. I did get to the gym and run 3 miles (had a PR on my time, yay), but didn't do much else. I tried to control the eating a bit, but didn't make the best food choices. I managed to tell my husband no thanks when he ordered ice cream, so I'm proud of that choice. My muscles are still recovering a little from the Spartan race on Saturday.
11/21: 136.7. Glad my weight is coming down again. Yesterday was a good day. Ran 4 miles. Ate well, within calorie budget. I'm still a bit sore from the Spartan. I have a busy day today, taking kids to appointments and starting to get ready for Thanksgiving. I'm just hoping I can fake the energy I need to go to the gym tonight.
11/22: 135.5. Okay day, I wasted a few too many calories on junk (too much cheese, splurged on a coke). I stayed under calories, but it wasn't healthy or satisfying at all. I'm feeling pretty hungry this morning and am going to have to eat a breakfast, which I usually don't. I ran 10k on the treadmill, and I'm proud of that. It was a good run, bringing my time down by about 3 minutes from the last time I did it. Did some shopping for Thanksgiving. I'm not worried much about Thanksgiving dinner, as much as the leftovers that will likely throw me over on calories in days following as well. I'll have to be careful but at the end of the day, it only happens once a year. Overall, it won't have a huge effect on me meeting my goals.

Round 242; My round 1!
Starting a day late, but at least I am starting!! I am a 52 year old female, who has struggled with weight her whole life. I have gained and lost enough weight to build my own continent, and hoping this time to make some permanent lifestyle changes that lead to permanent weight loss.
I am hoping to meet some new motivating friends along the way!! Good luck everyone!!
I weigh in stones because I think it is a great way to make mini goals.
Goal # 1: <15 stone by 2024
Starting Date: November 19th, 2023
Starting Weight: 15 stone, 10 pounds (aka 220 lbs.)
11/18 - n/a
11/19 - 15 stone, 10 pounds (aka 220 lbs.)
11/20 - 15 stone, 9 pounds (aka 219 lbs.)
11/21 - 15 stone, 7 pounds (aka 217 lbs.)
11/22 - 15 stone, 6 pounds (aka 216 lbs.)

11/20-168-Polished the silver and cleaned the garage yesterday. Spent last week doing as much as I can to get ready for Thanksgiving. Chiropractor this morning and just a few things from the grocery store.
11/21-168-Getting flowers for my decor today. First son arrives tonight, next son tomorrow. Picking up a quilt to quilt for a lady who needs it as a Christmas present. I’ll have my work cut out for me.
11/22-167-It was a wonderful 70 degrees here yesterday, so I spread bark in the yard and hosed everything down.6 -
Oooh, what a fun challenge.
I'm just getting re-started. Let's do this.
Stats: I'm 5'3" and currently 155 lbs. I have a dream goal of maintaining 130 lbs and being fit. My weakness is always sweets and desserts.
11/18-21 : NOT STARTED
11/22: Got up at 5:45am and hit the gym before work for 45 min (cardio and basic strength moves). Grabbed a souffle from Panera for like 570 calories which is not great but it's whatever. I am just glad I got up and moved my body. Tomorrow will be rough. But I will be back on track with some good choices after that one meal.

11/20 -180.8- (Trend weight 182.5)
11/21 -180.4- (Trend weight 182.3) I had a bad blood glucose drop yesterday evening (I’m type 2 diabetic). I haven’t had that happen in awhile. I had to quickly change my snacks planned to things with higher carbs. While I went over carbs on my macros, I still managed to stay within my calorie budget. I also had to eat the snack earlier than I’d planned making the rest of the night a bit rough, but I did it. I reduced my planned exercise and did not do anything additional late evening because of how bad it made me feel. I’m going to monitor my diabetic medications. With the recent weight loss, it’s a possibility I need a bit less. They recently reduced my thyroid med by just a tad already and the same may be needed for my T2D meds. I recorded a recent weight of 197 near the end of August which is when I really tried to start turning things around again. Since then, my weight is down about 17 pounds which could possibly be requiring a medication change. Especially since I am on the max dosages of all the meds I take. I’m going to monitor my numbers very closely (although Thanksgiving throws a wrench in it.). I’ll watch it closely for the next week or two and if my numbers are too low, I will reduce my Metformin. In the meantime, business as usual until I see a pattern. Being able to reduce my meds would be very good news.
11/22 -179.6- (Trend weight 182.0) Traveling today to get grocery items for dinner on Saturday. More sitting and restaurant food….. Here comes more teeter-tottering between the 170/180 decades. I’ll try to be careful today…. I know the Thanksgiving dinner is coming…..

I'm 30F and committed to wondering less about the scale and wondering instead about how great it's going to be when my daily healthy practices are so normal that it would be weird not to do them, even on vacations or holidays. It has been nice so far. This round is the big test.
Also, I've gotten a lot of inspiration from pages like this one showing how muscle is so important over scale weight to get me to eat more calories and ST more with these before and afters https://www.boredpanda.com/same-weight-fitness-transformations/

11/19 Macros ✔️ steps ✔️ I promise I'll be able to show my pants soon, 😂 I've got pics from Aug. 31 and Oct. 31 and the progress has been slow but is actually happening thanks to holding myself accountable to y'all. So if I can keep myself on track throughout this week it'll be Nov. 31 pants check!
11/20 macros ✔️ ST ✔️ steps ✔️ lol on my calendar ignorance, 10 more days til the Nov. 30th reveal
11/21 macros ✔️ ST ✔️ yoga ✔️
11/22 macros ✔️ and a bit of overeating once we got to family but nothing worth regretting. Going for a walk now and then cooking and ST later. plan: heavy effort ST so that my muscles need the feast of tomorrow
11/23 USA 🦃 Thanksgiving Day 🦃 plan: don't bother logging anything and post-feast walk with family is already agreed upon so we don't food coma on the couch. I'm pre-Thanskging grateful that my family is all on board with my plans.

Weird to intentionally not weigh myself in the morning. I’ve been doing it almost every day for so long! It’s a beautiful, chilly, sunny Saturday here, and I’m about to head out for a walk and then a little garden cleanup. Then a friend is coming to give me a Cocker Spaniel grooming lesson — whole new kind of coat for me after decades of Labrador Retrievers and Australian Shepherds. Then maybe some housecleaning? Nah! Happy weekend, all!

I feel very lazy today. I just want to lie in bed and read and knit and nap. But first, a walk, and some tidying up. Pretty bad, huh?
11/20 - DNW
I’ve been thinking of looking for a used dresser for storing yarn, so I can see what I have better than on the shelves I have. Sweet serendipity—a neighbor posted one free on our neighborhood fb group. She said the people they bought from left it. So today’s project is cleaning it well. It’s nice and solid but someone gave it a bad paint job. I’ll refinish it when it warms up in a few months, but want to use it in the meantime. So cleaning, moving, and filling it up will keep me out of the fridge for a bit!
11/21 - DNW
Feeling yucky this morning after a night with mild vertigo. Still getting that world-spinning-around-me feeling if I bend over or move my head too quickly. Also mild nausea. I don’t know what’s going on, other than I went to lunch with a friend yesterday. I had two eggs, two pieces of bacon, one piece banana bread, and way too much coffee. Maybe it’s the coffee. Maybe I need to go back to bed for a bit. Ugh.
11/22 - 187.2
I decided to weigh at “half-round” and day before Thanksgiving. Down 2.2 lb. this so far this round! I knew I was behaving myself, and I have to say, it’s motivating. We’re going to friends tomorrow for TG dinner, and I plan to eat light today and for brunch tomorrow and focus on veggies and turkey and go light on all the rest—enough to get a holiday taste without loading calories. I will have dessert, though—I’m taking my pumpkin spice pecan dump cake, which tastes like a combo of pumpkin and pecan pies. Small piece. 😁

Goal: Feel better physically and gain some confidence over the next 9 days. I will do this through 1) eating a more healthy diet 2) doing at least 4 sessions of strength training 3) going for at least 4 walks and 5) posting here, every day.
I can do this. And I am excited to do this. (I say as I sit here drinking my second latte of the day...)

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 242 (my 172nd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to get into 138s solidly, hopefully lose a pound and keep heart rate under 50 beats a minute, then longer term goal to get back to 135 in time for Christmas (just over 5 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.

I’m 65 years young, working on the last 10 pounds. November brings many birthday celebrations, and of course, Thanksgiving. Food during this month is not as big an issue for me as the empty calories of sipping wine 🍷 with friends. These next few days my goal is to have fewer 🍷 glasses on my daily reports, which will then equal fewer pounds at the end of 10 days! Good luck everyone!

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.

SW RND 242 130.5
11/18 129.5 Today is DH’s 75th birthday. No plans so far.
11/19 130.5 Dinner last night with DD and her family at Mexican restaurant. Food was MEH but the place was so noisy you couldn’t hear yourself think. Not particularly impressed with either the margarita or the food.
11/20 130.0 We have so many leftovers from eating out! Yesterday was Great Greek day. I have steak leftover.
11/21 129.5 My feet were killing me last night but life goes on. Interestingly, my right foot (which has been hurting for 3 weeks) doesn’t hurt at all so far today. I’m going to the podiatrist about it tomorrow. Groceries purchased. Tomorrow I’m making 3 pies and 18 deviled eggs (36 halves) to add to the Thanksgiving buffet at our daughter’s on Thursday.
11/22 130.5 I had an early appointment and then got caught up in other things. I almost forgot to check in. Tomorrow will be crazy too. To all who celebrate- HAPPY THANKSGIVING! See you in the morning between filling deviled eggs and getting dressed to go to DD’s.5
