12/02 -181.4- (Trend weight 181.9) Today is the birthday party for my DGS Owen that I babysit. He is turning 6. Party will be about an hour away at a bowling alley for some bumper bowling for the kids. I was hoping the scale would be down today (for a buffer) but I know I didn’t eat the healthiest yesterday so it’s my own fault. Today will be filled with snacks, food and cake. I’ll try to have some control by eating a small meal before I leave.

UGH!! Friday was a bad one. We had a Christmas lunch at work. The food was AMAZING!! and for the most part healthy, but I am sure way over calorie. It is always hard to tell when eating out...
I don't regret the lunch as you have to enjoy yourself in these occasions. What I do regret is my mind went to the old "well I have blown this day..." and I proceeded to have nachos for dinner, followed by late night shortbread cookies.
I am not going to dwell on it, but hopefully I will learn from it.
Onward and upward!!

Hi! I'd like to join in this round. I've found a bunch of motivation following along the threads, so I thought I'd try joining in. I may not post/weigh daily, we'll see how this goes!
I regularly do strength training, but my steps could use improvements.

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.
11/29: 297.2
11/30: 297.4 (+ 0.2 oz)
12/1: 297.4
12/2: 297 (-0.4 oz) Only minor bumps, so far this round. Which I don't mind, as long as there is a loss, no matter how small.

This my second round, I am happy that I continue!
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.

My second round! Feeling positive! I am focusing on a low-carb breakfast every day and a no carb lunch.
I lose weight quickly at the start of low-carb and then things slow down and motivation can start to drain. Hopefully I will start understanding the "lifestyle not a diet" phrase. Posted my "before" picture this afternoon. Weighing every day for my own motivation. I am always rounding up to the next pound. No more decimals.

12/02/23=200 * I worked in the backyard for three hours this afternoon. Need to be more
accurate with my food chart. Memory can be hazy even over the course of a day.

I don't regret the lunch as you have to enjoy yourself in these occasions. What I do regret is my mind went to the old "well I have blown this day..." and I proceeded to have nachos for dinner, followed by late night shortbread cookies.
@Alsison This saying comes up every now and then on another challenge I am on and one that I will likely never be able to forget:
"Just because the air is out of one tire doesn't mean we have to let the air out of the other three."
I am not going to pretend that it has stopped me every time, but I will say that it has stopped me a lot from turning a social moment into an all day thing. These special occasions come up CONSTANTLY in my life. It's just one meal. That's it. My goal is to always try to remember that. I hope this helps you as much as it has helped me.10 -

11/28: 265.6. 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.
11/29: 265.4. Not super hungry today until after work which was fine with me
Went to bed early last night and slept straight through until the cat's breakfast time. Had more energy today (funny how that works!) so went for a walk on my break.
11/30: 264.6. Strategizing the holiday eating--got my first potluck invitation so i guess it's time to start planning. I ordered some barbecue from a place back home on Goldbelly for Xmas dinner--I'm digging the idea of just making dessert rather than a whole day or more of cooking. We have been missing our old barbecue joint badly so this is a good time for it (unfortunately every place we've been recommended since we moved has not hit the spot). It will also be easier to weigh and log, which is a bonus. It's so expensive for what we're getting (like a 3x markup from buying at the restaurant! Jeez) and crazy to think what used to be a quick dinner I would grab on the way home at least once a week is now just for very special occasions. That's probably best, though--it's not health food by any means 😂
12/2: 264.4. Good day running around looking for Xmas chocolates and hunting mushrooms in the rain. Feeling tired but good tired. Lots of running around to do tomorrow again so I'm going to try to get to sleep early (we'll see).

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.
11/29 - 215.2 - no exercise - I was up again today. Sigh. I know it's because I keep having small slices of pumpkin pie in the morning and I've been getting serious munchies after getting off of work. I gave into that the last two nights because I was just tired and sore and wanted comfort food to relax. I also ate way too much today and am way over on calories so I think I'm just going to call today a wash, have a big slice of apple pie with ice cream and then get back on track tomorrow. I also didn't get to go on a walk or to the gym today because I have felt super dizzy all day. Any time I moved, the whole room would spin. I was finally feeling a little better when I went to cook dinner, but it was really bad around lunch time. No idea what was going on. I don't feel sick in any way. The dizziness came out of nowhere.
11/30 - 217.4 - no exercise - My weight was up a bunch after my impromptu break from calorie counting yesterday. But it's all good. I just now know where I stand and can just start back up from here. I was mostly good today. Had a salad for lunch and soup for dinner. I did munch on some leftover season fries and turkey while I cooked. I logged them both to get me back on track with that stuff. Now I just have to power through for a couple weeks. Then it's my birthday (13th) which will be a cheat day so I can, you know, have cake and stuff. After that I start baking for the holidays. I think, though, I'll keep my baking to the week before Christmas to limit my temptations.
12/1 - 215.6 - no exercise - Back to work. My feet and knees are killing me. I did soak my feet because it just feels so nice right after work, but I fooled around too long between filling the tub and putting my feet in so the hot water only lasted a short time and had cooled some already. Oh well.
12/2 - 214.2 - no exercise - Work seemed to drag on and the last couple hours kill me because my shoes are, I guess, too tight. I think I need to get wides because my toes are rubbing even though I got a 1/2 size bigger. It's causing like nerve damage in my big toes. I completely lose feeling on one side of them and the other side just aches. I do have 2 other pair coming (couldn't decide so got both). I might see if they have wides and exchange them.

@quiltingjaine
I wanted to thank you for keeping this group going.
I am going to take a break from daily weighing for a couple of rounds, now that I am firmly set at the middle of my weight range. (My Happy Scale chart has been almost a flat line for over 3 years now)
I may be back in the New Year.
All the best to everyone. Don’t give up. You are worth the effort!

This my second round, I am happy that I continue!
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.
SW: 105 kg (20 November)

Thank goodness, I know you are all very patient and understanding. 😊 Today’s goals include getting my butt out of the apartment, and getting to the gym. Even if all I can do when I get there is 3 exercises. I need to just focus on making it a habit again; not worry about whether or not the workout will be “perfect”. Also, PROTEIN, WATER. My friend recently shared a motto with me that he learned in counselling: “Follow the plan, not the mood.” Excellent advice.

——————————
12/3 Yesterday: ✅ 1272 cal & macros, 3.6k🚶♀️, Got in 40-45 min of light calisthenics, basketball, and walking with my DGS… But I did not measure it. Negligible activity.
Good news: Decided to get a spontaneous “InBody” and I GAINED 1.3lbs SMM (Muscle mass) and LOST 3.0lbs of FAT. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Woo-hoo! 🙌🏻
But… water retention was up so I’m assuming that was from the party …… Told to 👆🏻up my calorie intake to 1440 because I’m not eating enough…. That’s something I’m not used to hearing!
Yes, very positive but I’m also let down 🤨 that I kicked my body out of ketosis — will now take me 3+++ days to return. I was thinking just how UNSTOPPABLE I would have FELT if I would’ve avoided the carbs Friday night… I must remember this feeling…
My foot is almost 100%. If weather allows, I’ll get in steps & will enjoy full Calisthenics and 🏋️♀️. I’ll figure out how to get it done. Need me some 🌞☀️!
BIG DEAL NSV- I’ve decided to pass on a few holiday parties. I have new priorities. I have new eyes 🫣👁️. Not going this weekend. Cutting it down to people I LOVE. WHAT A FREAKING WIN!
💪🏻 LETS GO!!!!

11/28 Yesterday: ✅ 1100 cal, macros 6.8k 🚶♀️, 78 min ex, 23 min 💓Z2, 🔥Total 619 cal. Opted out of an add’l walk cuz of fast. ✅ Calisthenics & stretching. Will 🏋️♀️today since fast is over.
Broke fast at 71 hrs.30 min. I wasn’t hungry it was more about wanting to eat dinner at 6:30 instead of 7PM. 😎 I’m usually finished eating by 6PM every night so I wanted to eat earlier for next IF. I learned from the fast that I can live through being “hungry” … It’s 💯 mind over body. One tough part was between 48 and 50 hours I got a mild headache. Ended up sleeping well. Fasting increased my will power - at least the perception 😎. Today: 🎾🚶♀️🏋️♀️💪🏻Onward!
11/29 Yesterday: ✅ 1464 cal & macros, 13.6k🚶♀️, 190 min ex plus addl 63 min 💓Z2, 🔥1193cal plus🔥230 cals Z2 💓 ✅ 🎾, 🏋️♀️& Calisthenics🙌🏻 I may have overdone it yesterday…. 🙃 Calories a little over but I worked out big.
Today’s Activity: I think I’m developing a stone bruise on my left foot and will play the day by ear. 😢
11/30 Yesterday: ✅ 1344 cal & macros, 10.1k🚶♀️, 65 ex min includes 50 min 💓Z2, 🔥480 ex cal incudes🔥255cals Z2 💓.
And ✅🏋️♀️Took it easy yesterday… I wanted to do more, but had to let it go. Cancelled 🎾. Nice weather, so I walked “gently” to town, piddled & walked home. That was a mistake. My left heel definitely needs TLC, ice all day & rest. First injury that I can remember…. Walking is a wonderful time for reflection but will have to “call in” sick for a few days. Will post 👖📸 later this morn.
12/1 Yesterday: ✅ 1288 cal & macros, 4.1k🚶♀️, 👉🏻ZERO everything else. Nothing to track.
Don’t know how I got in 4.1k steps for walking around the house w/a cane (Actually, joking about the cane, but I did hop around, so maybe over counting hops ?!?!!) Ice does wonders but it should classify as torture.
NSVs- I’m mindful now of what & when I choose to eat… Not obsessing, but clearly mindful. It’s turning into fuel only instead of emotion, comfort, or a tastebud party. I’m also congratulating myself throughout the day with increased positive self-talk. I am finding that growing confidence & healthy choices (includes many decisions not just food) far outweigh the dopamine rush or guilt associated w/the fleeting momentary pleasure of BAD CHOICES. Yes, bad. Gotta be real with myself here. For me, it’s about self-discipline-a battle of the mind.
90% of my will-power relies on the fact that my pantry & fridge don’t include temptations. If we have items that my DH wants, by my request, he hides them… 😃!
Really enjoyed interacting on the group yesterday 😎
“Pants-demonium….👖” I am forever learning and inspired. Pumped. Giggles too!
Today: another day of lack of movement …nursing my foot and going to a party tonight with 7 friends since high school… NOTE: 5 of 7 have not/are not choosing health. I do receive passive-aggressive grief from the crew…Some of you have mentioned this before… (The efforts to sabotage, judgments, lack of support, eye-rolling, etc.) And I will definitely experience it tonight!👀 I am prepared. My mom always said… “Kill’em with kindness!”
12/2 Yesterday: 🚫3450 cal & macros, 2.1k🚶♀️, 👉🏻ZERO everything else. Nothing to track.
Not a great day yesterday, but I’m not going to fret. I nursed my foot yesterday, so still no activity. Today I will try and 🏋️♀️ and Exercises that don’t involve weight on my left foot.
Party last night: ✅one cocktail, ✅small portions of appetizer, veal and veggie, but…. 🚫 I couldn’t say NO TO DESSERT! Sugars busted me last night and I feel like 💩 this morning. So I give myself a D. Didn’t totally flunk, but I truly did not plan on eating dessert and I did. So I broke my promise to ME.
Forgiven! MOVE ON. I’ll get back on my plan today. Was it worth it? NO! I will remember this feeling for the next temptation.

1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs
UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)
In Aug 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 1/1/2015. Weight topped @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-137lbs. Three more solid years.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 140lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 12/22.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. 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 and fitness. My forever 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 relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.
I also noticed that as I aged it became much MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could loose 15lbs easy in 6 to 8 weeks up to my 60s … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

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.
I'm confident in my pants and now I am adding a mini goal to read on my stationary bike at least 30 minutes for at least 3/10 days.
11/28 macros ✔️ ST ✔️
11/29 macros ✔️

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. :-)

I'm forgetting to check in without my iPad. But happily it's at an indie computer place getting a new port. I don't realize how much I use the silly thing until I can't.

Off to an annual women's holiday art fair this morning with a friend. Always a fun event and I always find a treasure or three. Happy Saturday!

I finally reorganized my yarn stash this morning--Yay! I feel so accomplished, and I can see what I have in different weight yarns without pawing through them. No I need some hooks to hang projects bags up out of the way. Next up, my watercolor supplies on the other side of the closet. I keep telling myself if I declutter and organize enough, I'll lose weight. :-) I hope you have a lovely Sunday, all!

Hi! I'd like to join in this round. I've found a bunch of motivation following along the threads, so I thought I'd try joining in. I may not post/weigh daily, we'll see how this goes!
I regularly do strength training, but my steps could use improvements.
