UGW-140
12/18-DNW-One week before Christmas. Went to mountains to cut a Christmas tree with DH last week. Got it home and inside then had to go take my dad 8 hours away (Los Angeles) to get his back operated on. He was going to have to spend at least one night in hospital…….he ended up spending 3 nights then I took him home to a broken pipe in a wall. Luckily my sister came Saturday morning and I left. I had been gone for 6 nights and got home. Went to decorate the tree and only one string of lights worked. Amazon will deliver more lights on Wednesday. I made all of my cookie dough yesterday and hope to bake, frost and freeze them today. Hopefully I can get some exercise.7 -
My round 3!
5'9 F
I'm starting to learn that my loss will be quite slow. For reference, my senior year of HS I went from 185 to ~165 in about 3 months. I wasn't working out at the time so it was all diet. I maintained this weight +/- a few pounds during college just due to the amount of walking required daily (easily 12k+).
After graduating I've fluctuated a bit, but starting senior year of college I became very consistent at the gym doing weights. 5+ years later I've now gained a lot more muscle so naturally my weight has increased. My 185 now looks a lot different than 10 years ago, but I could still stand to lose some excess fat.
It seems to be a much slower journey and I'm not really sure what my end goal weight should be exactly, but I think these 10 day rounds help me accept the small wins and focus on the journey instead of hoping for a big loss like 20lbs again (which may or may not happen)

Found out yesterday my BFF has Covid. She started feeling sick on Sat., and we spent a few hours together knitting on Fri. She was vaccinated , but hadn’t yet gotten this fall’s booster addressing new strains. 😢 I’m vaccinated and boosted, so hopefully I’ll be ok. Someone sitting across from her at the party last Wed. wasn’t feeling well so we suspect that’s where she got it. Why do people go to events when they’re sick? Yeesh. Anyway, I guess I’ll be a homebody for a few days so I don’t pass anything on. That’s ok. I need to do some serious cleaning, and I finished knitting a sweater last night so need to finish and wash it and DH’s Christmas sweater. I’ll be hiding in my office for that one! 🙂 I’m still not weighing or tracking, and I think I’m doing ok. This break is giving me time to really think about what I want to keep in my food world and what I want to let go. I feel way too heavy, but with this little break, I also feel a bit more hopeful about a new start and better results.

First time here, not sure I'm doing it right, but I've been avoiding the scale since before T'giving and it's a disaster. Went from 140 to 146-UGH! And this is before all the holiday food landmines ahead. So, this is a perfectly timed way to be accountable to myself- let's see how it goes!
Goal for the next 10 days: log every day; be mindful of what I put in my mouth and stabilize.

Round 245
Dec 18 – Dec 27, 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!

I’m a 65 year young gal working on getting rid of those last 8 pounds. Last go-around I managed to stay mostly in the 137 range, but bounced back into the 138’s for the final weigh in. This round I would like to flirt with the 136 number, even if I end in the 137’s. Here we go! We got this!

I am proud of being able to have a serving and leave it alone on the last batch i made 🏆With just another week till Xmas I'm going to do my best this round to eat well until Xmas Eve-Eve. After that, pray for me 😂 I am planning to do the same as Thanksgiving and have a non-traditional meal that won't be hanging around the house for days. I'm not terribly worried about having some extra calories around the holidays and am pretty confident i will meet my HealthyWage goal, although the timing of the end of the challenge (2/2) is raising the stakes a little.

First time here, not sure I'm doing it right, but I've been avoiding the scale since before T'giving and it's a disaster. Went from 140 to 146-UGH! And this is before all the holiday food landmines ahead. So, this is a perfectly timed way to be accountable to myself- let's see how it goes!
Goal for the next 10 days: log every day; be mindful of what I put in my mouth and stabilize.

Well, I started my day off with a glass of orange juice and two pieces of bacon, but during lunch, I had some mozz sticks so didn't do so well with that. And then when I got home I had a snack cake. I also had soda and didn't go for my walk... Hopefully, I will be a bit stronger the rest of the evening and rest of week as well, thank you all for your support!

My first time to do this! I hope this works! I've got 95 pounds I want/need to lose. I've been up and down my entire life, like a roller coaster... I was competitive in the fitness arena in my twenties and at one point got down to 130 but once I started weight lifting was around 185. I have a sweet tooth and tend to binge eat. My goal for 2024 is to get this weight off for good this time!! I am afraid it will be slow however due to hormonal issues or lack thereof. And although I'm at a high weight I look and feel great at around 225 but my goal is to get to 200.
I am 5'8 and had a recent Surgical Hysterectomy, so post-menopausal and hypothyroidism, so the struggle is real... Age 46.

~ Today was not a good day. Excuses aside, I ate poorly, didn’t exercise, and didn’t plan which was the goal I have for this round. Ugh! Plan for tomorrow!

Round 1: Accountability: an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for one’s action.9 -
Thrilled to be in my fourth Round. I haven't been this long in an eating routine in many years. Not sure why this is working for me. I know that Carbs are my weak point, so I have designed an eating plan that avoids or minimizes them. I try to shop for my plan daily at the same time. Holidays treats surround me. I am avoiding the places that will get me in trouble (staff lounge). This round I am adding water and tracking it. I may be a little dehydrated. Let's find out. Nothing changes if nothing changes.

Jen; 47; 5'4"
About Me:This is my seventeenth 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.

12/18 - 212.4 - ? steps - Derp. Messed up my downward motion already. Didn't measure my food well enough yesterday so went over a bit too much and was up again today. But it's a process of figuring out how much I really need to eat after work to feel full. Right now it seems my biggest meal with the most calories needs to be after work when I seem to be most hungry. I can get away with a snack before work and then a small meal during work. I actually prefer to be slightly hungry while working as opposed to being overly full and sleepy and not wanting to do anything.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 245 (my 175th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to, stay strong over the festive period, holiday abroad (20 days!).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.

Pizza out for lunch with the whole sandwich yesterday. Sandwich you ask? My son and his wife and kids are one slice of bread. My parents are the other slice of bread. I am the meat in the middle. (In other words, I paid the tab. HA!)
Just paying it back for the parents and paying it forward for the kiddos. It’s my turn. Thankfully the kiddos are slowly growing into their adult roles. The parents on the other hand are regressing… They don’t have full blown dementia, but are showing some signs.
DW’s parents are ten years older than mine so this started ten years ago or so for us. Her folks have passed on, now it is my parent’s turn. Our siblings watch from their out-of-town locations, but seem thankful.
I am not whining, just stating the reality of our season of life for now.

/logged it; group exercised it/
In spite of my carb reading of over 200 yesterday, I managed to drop a little on the scale reading. I know these things lag a day or two so I will put away the confetti for now.
My wife does 95% of the meal prep around our house, for which I am very grateful. ( I do my own breakfast and all of the outdoor cooking.) Her meal planning is VERY good, but her goal is not exclusively-low-carb. Her goal is balance. When I break the bank on my daily carbs, I have a tendency to blame her. (Isn’t that silly?) I recognize, in my better moments of cognitive thought, it is NOT her fault when I carbo-load. I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PORTION CONTROL. As I look to the left and to the right I realize I have no one to blame but @_JeffreyD_ .

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.12 -
@deepwoodslady I want to congratulate you on scratching out the 180s and fully entering the 170s! What a journey! WooHOO!!!

Yesterday: ✅macros & 90 cal of bone broth, 🚶♀️3.9k, 🚫ex min, 🚫 ex cal 🔥, 🚫💗Z2 min, 🚫🏋️♀️, 🤸🏼
Woke up at 3:50! 🙃😳 Good Morning! Yes, scale is less but was expected. I’m fasting to reset ketosis & recharge /reboot. I’m hoping 130 will one day be my lean & mean ceiling!☺️
Because I spontaneously opted to fast, I also opted to remain sedentary yesterday. I did end up doing a lot of work around the house. I only counted 🚶♀️. After 6 PM, (24hrs) I had 2 cups of bone broth over a couple of hours, drank tons of water & electrolytes.
Going on 36hrs as I write this … I feel really good this morn. No hunger pains yesterday, (because I kept drinking… ) And I was super busy. I had tons of energy. No headaches. Peed all day. 😎. Hoping it goes as well today.
I had another business meeting yesterday … I’ve been approached to take on a hefty project (in my profession). Yesterday was my third meeting in 10 days, and I’m strongly considering saying yes… With each day that passes, I’m becoming a little more excited about the opportunity. Ill have the flexibility to continue to pick up DGS from school, as well as play 🎾 in the morning a few days a week… and will also figure out how to 🚶♀️&🏋️♀️🤸🏼on a regular basis. The project would last six months… It’s actually too good to be true. So we will see! It’s been five years since retiring … would certainly be a wild & adventurous ride cuzz I feel quite unprepared. We will meet once more after the holidays to solidify any arrangement … 🤞🏻!
Today: 🎾 🚶♀️and some 🤸🏼 - let’s see! Not sure about stamina but will try. I can always stop. ’ll be fine this morning but I’m prepared for a little waiver-ing between noon and 2pm…. 💪🏻
APOLOGIES FOR LONG POST:
Note: TBH, For some reason, fasting is easier for me than I thought it would be. This is only my second go round. I find it much easier to just say no than it is to plan food/figure out what to eat…. It’s a competition with myself. Once I did the research & learned of the long list of positive benefits… It was a no-brainer for me personally. I once truly believed fasting was for WHACKOS 😎. Really! Isn’t that horrible? It’s not for everyone but… If you’re thinking about it, I encourage you to read up!

Yesterday: 💯lazy day. ✅macros & 1438 cal.
Today: 💪🏻🚶♀️🤸🏼🏋️♀️
I’m up a little because I’m off routine. Ok. Rational. Last night I decided to start fast @ 6pm. I felt terrific after that last fast and spent some time researching last night as to what happens to your body at 24, 48, and 72hrs - planning for 72. Pumped! Water, black coffee, electrolytes and grass-fed beef bone broth. 💪🏻

Health Journey
1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs
UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)
In Aug 14, 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 132-140 lbs.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 1/1/23.
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 a goal weight I would then relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.
I also noticed that as I age it becomes much MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could loose 15lbs easy in 6 to 8 weeks up to 2020ish … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

12/18 - 153.2
12/19 - 153.2 - I stayed stagnant after a "normal" eating day! Whoohoo! I was, honestly, trying to be mindful of my eating and did really well until I had to unexpectedly work late. I was late coming to the dinner table to eat and grabbed a soda to help wash food down rather than taking the extra time to refill my water bottle. Oh well. I think I ended up only drinking 1/4 of the soda and poured the rest out so I could have herbal tea instead once I finished up with work. I ended up at 120 carbs for the day. I was hoping to stay under 100 but that soda did me in. Plus BF (who had to cook sides - usually my job) had corn and mashed potatoes as sides - carb loading much? Today I'm going to try for a quick strength workout - probably just bodyweight like pushups and squats, planks and lunges. I'll walk the dogs. Thinking of walking them over lunch like I did yesterday. It was much nicer out (read: warmer and sunnier) and it was a very much needed mental break from work. We shall see how today goes, work-wise. Club sandwich on lettuce for lunch, keto white chicken enchiladas for Taco Tuesday dinner. Breakfast I'm thinking I'll make a ham, egg, cheese sandwich on lettuce if I need to eat before lunch.

Previous Day's Comments12/18 - Had a giant jump up due to salt and water retention yesterday for my round end weight. Quite alright since it was also normal eating day Saturday and we had Fam over. Haven't seen them in nearly a month and won't see them again until the New Year. Oof! It was nice to see them though and I'll accept the weight from that little get together. Yesterday was a low carb day and I obviously dropped right back down. Today is normal eating day with a run planned once it gets light enough. Hoping to keep mindful and intuitive about my eating choices. I can see changes in normal eating habits happening already so that's really good (: I need to lower my "normal" eating day carb intake in general anyway. Also need to slim down my portions, I certainly eat too large of portions more often than not. Here's to continuing this journey with all of you!
