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)

SW RND 243 131.5
11/28. 132.5 Fasting today, I hope. Up before 4:30AM - UGH! Ate at Art Quilt potluck, had a glass of wine after I got home and enjoyed my half pita and 1 ounce of melitzanosalata. Nothing but water and coffee since about 6 last night. We’ll see what today brings.

stevefarns · November 2023

Goal: Feel better physically and gain some confidence over the next 10 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.

SW - 89kg
RGW - None
UGW - 70 kg/ 154.3 lbs

Some details about me:

I am 26M, 5'7" - a software engineer with a sedentary lifestyle.

This my second round. Failed the last round terribly due to different priorities as well as setting very high expectations. Also, gained around 3 kgs owing to terrible sleeping schedule and a lot of unhealthy meals. I was too much occupied with some renovation work that was going on. Had a realization today that nothing is bigger than my health so I need to get some healthy counterbalance on my health front.

My goals for the round:

Sleep on time - MAIN PRIORITY
- Start my sleep routine after 11 PM
- Sleep by 1AM
Follow a simple diet
- Morning - Peanut butter and fruit salad
- Lunch - Paneer wrap + salad + curd
- Evening - A bowl of fruits
- Dinner - Namak parantha with curd + salad + 1 scoop protein shake
- Have a peanut butter sandwich in case of late night hunger
- Limit Coffee Intake
○ No coffee after 6PM
○ Max 2 coffees per day

Since sleeping on time is main priority for this round - I won't be monitoring my weight. Let's see how this round goes.

Updates:

11/28

Did I sleep on Time ?
- No. Ended up working late as well as couldn't sleep after that.

Did I eat clean today ?
- Nope. Ended up ordering some outside food since I couldn't sleep on time and felty hungry later.

What did I do wrong ?
- Working till late - thought it wouldn't affect sleep much
- Having coffee after 6PM

Next steps to improve
- Hard limit on work by 11:30PM
- Follow night routine
- Do not nap
- Have drinks alternative to coffee after 6 PM

Day, Weight, Comment
11/28 - 155.4 - I've dropped 0.5lbs since yesterday which I wasn't expecting. I guess I did a decent job Sunday of re-hydrating enough to start seeing the water weight drop off today versus being delayed as I had thought. I ran 10 minutes yesterday to get back into the groove and monitored my eating based on my body's hunger cues. Today I did some run intervals and have meals planned out other than breakfast (if I need it - I fasted until lunch yesterday so hoping to do the same today). TOM is set to arrive in the next 48 or so hours so I'm not going to be too shocked or upset if I see a slight uptick or maintenance between now and then - I'm mentally prepared for that possibility and know my body will resume it's normal functions very shortly after. I've missed you all and it's really good to be back - now to navigate this holiday season together and with success!

I was proud of myself for not giving in to the other leftovers. I’m not always that strong, but yesterday was a good day. Good luck everyone this round and welcome to any newbies that have joined us. We love having all of you here!

11/28: Round 5! 265.6. I am learning not to set a goal in my daily reflection 🙃 it seems lime whenever i do that, something happens that throws off the plan (for example, my plan to walk the track at work yesterday, completely thrown off by an emergency that kept me home for the rest of the night and up into the wee hours). Feeling rough this morning. Didn't sleep well at all and sick stomach. Yesterday was stressful and my guts always seem to have their say when my nervous system is being rude. I'll be happy if i can achieve C-grade work today. I really just want to flop over and go back to bed, but I'm getting this coffee down so i can at least try.

It's not so much the daily loss or gain ( because I know I'll have both), It's what my weight will show at the end of this 10 day round. As long as I do my best, this is what's important. I know I'll eventually get to where I want to be.

BTW for newbies with an emotional love/hate relationship with the scale…. (Or not) Grabbing a pair of pants that once fit to use as a gauge to the changes in your body is so much better than the scale! (Or fit now that you want to drop sizes…) I promise! So, make sure to take a beginning photo if you’re just starting your journey… or progress photos…. Whatever works for you! All photos welcome!!

potasha · November 2023

@quiltingjaine when I first joined the 10 dayers back in late August I found a pair of pants I loved that had become way too small. I hung them up in my pantry for two weeks to remind me why I needed to quit my snacking and sugar habit. Then I got rid of my scale goal and only focused on ST and diet and fitting into the pants. It took a lot longer than I had initially anticipated but I'm going to be able to show the change in my muffin top from pictures I took August 31 to November 30.

11/28 - 188.6
I'm late, I'm late....I broke the tip of my charger cord off in my iPad and can't get it out. I even took it to the Geek Squad. No go. What a pain. On a happier note, my new pupper Charlie passed his Canine Good Citizen test this morning. He had no training at all when we got him 8 weeks ago. He's doing great! And of course I have to share another pic of him. :-)

Round 243
Nov 28 – Dec 7, 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!

Day/Weight/Comment

11/28 – 127.6 I am NOT multi-tasking well. Despite not reporting in or sharing with the group, I have stepped on the scale every single morning. So at least I am seeing the consequences of my actions/inactions. Hubby leaves town for two weeks starting the 30th. Typical behavior is to not cook and eat ice cream for dinner while he is away. Soooo, my goal is to get back to tracking and to actually eat real meals. It’s funny, I am actually feeling lost on how to track and eat real meals. So crazy as I was doing it efficiently for roughly 9 months before fumbling. I know I can do this, I just need to be sure to. Let start December well!! Wishing everyone well!

Failed the last round terribly due to different priorities as well as setting very high expectations.

At one point in the last 6+ years there was someone who posted that they wanted to lose 15 pounds during the round.

I believe that setting expectations too high is the reason most of us “fail” but if we learn something from the round, I consider that a WIN.

well said @quiltingjaine

@SheilaBoneham What a cutie! He looks like a love. As for your iPad, I would go the apple store and see if they have better talents than the Geek squad as it is their own product and that's all they have to know about. In general, we have tended to have good luck with Genius Bar at the apple stores.

SModa61 · November 2023

Last post today, I promise (making up for lost time). Great to see all the new faces, especially BEFORE Jan 1. That said, I feel like during my last couple of months where I have been drifting, many members are gone. Wishing those that we are missing well and hope to see them return, but very glad to see the familiar faces. Extending good wishes for everyone's round 243!

Jen; 46; 5'4"

About Me:

This is my fifteenth 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). I recently started working full time (after over 23 years as a SAHM) so my time to exercise is now limited.

11/28 - 214.8 - no exercise - My weight was up again this morning. The pumpkin pie is almost gone, though and so are the leftovers. I'll be making turkey and dumpling soup tomorrow probably. And that should cut back on the calories I have during the day. I just get off work and I'm tired and hungry and just want to chill and munch on some chips or whatever so I gave in last night and had some veggie straws and today I had some Ritz Thin Crisps to satisfy my cravings. I also don't get as much exercise as I did before even though I'm on my feet all day. I still don't know if I'm going to go to the gym on my two days off. My feet are killing me and I just want to relax tomorrow. When I'm not taking care of my grandson. Oh, I also have to take my car to Autozone to find out why the check engine light is on. Ugh.

RND 243
HW 100kg
SW - 89kg
RGW - None
UGW - 70 kg/ 154.3 lbs

Some details about me:

I am 26M, 5'7" - a software engineer with a sedentary lifestyle.

This my second round. Failed the last round terribly due to different priorities as well as setting very high expectations. Also, gained around 3 kgs owing to terrible sleeping schedule and a lot of unhealthy meals. I was too much occupied with some renovation work that was going on. Had a realization today that nothing is bigger than my health so I need to get some healthy counterbalance on my health front.

My goals for the round:

Sleep on time - MAIN PRIORITY
- Start my sleep routine after 11 PM
- Sleep by 1AM
Follow a simple diet
- Morning - Peanut butter and fruit salad
- Lunch - Paneer wrap + salad + curd
- Evening - A bowl of fruits
- Dinner - Namak parantha with curd + salad + 1 scoop protein shake
- Have a peanut butter sandwich in case of late night hunger
- Limit Coffee Intake
○ No coffee after 6PM
○ Max 2 coffees per day

Since sleeping on time is main priority for this round - I won't be monitoring my weight. Let's see how this round goes.

Updates:

11/28

Did I sleep on Time ?
- No. Ended up working late as well as couldn't sleep after that.

Did I eat clean today ?
- Nope. Ended up ordering some outside food since I couldn't sleep on time and felty hungry later.

What did I do wrong ?
- Working till late - thought it wouldn't affect sleep much
- Having coffee after 6PM

Next steps to improve
- Hard limit on work by 11:30PM
- Follow night routine
- Do not nap
- Have drinks alternative to coffee after 6 PM

11/29

Did I sleep on Time ?
- No. Slept around 2 instead 1 - but still an improvement from earlier

Did I eat clean today ?
- Had clean meals. Didn't order any outside food.
- Few cheats:
○ Munched on a snack in the night which could be avoided
○ Had a drink with sugar.

What did I do wrong ?
- Munching
- Sleeping slightly late

What did I do right ?
- Woke up on time 9:30 AM
- No caffeine intake after 6PM

Next steps to improve
- Continue with cutting caffeine intake after 6PM
- Work on night routine after 11 PM and sleep by 1 AM

A quick info about myself, I’m 34 years old and 164 cm. I’m a phd student so I mostly sit, not very active. I try to go to the gym at least 3 times a week, but mostly end up by going once or twice. I have been trying to lose weight for about 20 years funnily I have gained 50 kgs through those years. Now I’m 103.8 kg and I hope be 75 kg in a year or more.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 243 (my 173rd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to get into 137s, 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 4 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 target of 130 = 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.

11/29 137.6 – lunch out with DS’s x 3 plus a couple of friends too, we all tried to eat healthy, and we did get 4 miles walking in, I was not hungry at tea time so just had an apple and a coffee, but still ate all exercise calories + back.
