Please join us starting on 12/28 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 246.
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.
If you feel your post is too lengthy, you can add spoilers to temporarily hide the information. It is readily available by tapping the SPOILER bar. To create a Spoiler just type or copy [ Spoiler ] xxx [ /Spoiler ] Omit the spaces within the brackets and put your information where I have xxx

Excited for a new round. Last round really helped during the Xmas run!6 -
@quiltingjaine after a long absence and debauched living, I'd like to come in from the cold again.
I just wish I had not buried the scale in the back yard.9 -
Yes I'm in for a new round too, I sharn't be weighing until Sat 30th as we are away in our caravan and I don't take scales with me. Mostly because there is not a flat surface to use, all carpeted and the shower cubicle floor is ridged.
We fly away to the sun for a week 6th Jan, so I need a reset week before we go.
Thanks @quiltingjaine for the new round.7 -

Round 246, just in the nick of time!!! In the course of a year, I managed to gain. Normally this would upset me and I'd throw in the towel, only to gain more weight; but I did have success in 2023. Life just got in the way and I lost my focus. During the ride, I learned some things that work and truly are sustainable, I also learned that I need to work on my emotions and how they relate to how I treat or mistreat my body.
So here we go 2024... my motto -
๐๐พโโ๏ธ Don't think, just do it!!
Goals this round:
*This round will be odd, but it will be a start. I will be on vacation 12/29 - 1/2. I will get plenty of exercise (walking) but I probably won't begin the nutrition refocus until I get back since I won't be cooking and not sure what my options will be.
1/3 on...
- Tracking to the best of my ability ๐and staying under calorie budget (just say NO!)- Defining a higher calorie budget which will make the loss slower but again, more sustainable.
Also get rid of the oops factor. When targets are too low, it easy to say...Oops, I went over so I
might as well have...<fill in the blank>

Hello,
My nameโs Dawn. Itโs get it back together time! I have gained all my weight back over 2023 due to life, health issues, and whatever other excuse made this happen. Iโm going to focus on consistently tracking on my first challenge. Anything else will be a bonus. May we all make a great start to 2024!

Just popping in to join. I am in maintenance and don't weigh daily, but I would like to put 10 days together of staying on target and it is amazing to me how much better you can feel about everything after just a week to 10 days of staying on track. To participate I am going to put my RHR as my metric for the night before because my goal is to keep it below 59 which only happens when I keep to my activity and don't binge.

12/28 - 155.4 - Once again, not enough water. I'm really failing at that. I'm setting reminders on my phone to drink water earlier so I'm not trying to fit it all in before bed like I have been lately. I also gave in to too many cookies and sweets. Today is a low carb day. I have the cabbage-wrapped dumplings to make up for lunch today before the cabbage goes bad. Dinner is something called Marry Me Chicken. No clue, but it's low carb so we're giving it a try. Only workout is walking the dogs and anything bodyweight I manage through the day since I didn't plan. Another thing I'm writing down for me to get fixed up and planned out once kids are gone. Today is their last full day, they leave about 930am tomorrow.

I found you! This is my 2nd round. 5'1, 66 YO. Was as low as 115, as high as 160. GW/BW 125-130. SW about 147. Thanks for this discussion!
I'm back on MFP after gaining back all of the weight I lost 3 years ago. Really time to reboot and rethink my relationship with food (and myself!). I am absolutely scale-avoidant, so this will be my challenge in the next 10 days- to get past that roadblock. I work out every day and am stronger now than a year ago, but 20 lbs from my best/goal weight. I hate my habits and the way I look right now- it's self-defeating.
2024 will be the year when I finally alter my relationship to food.

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!
๐ข Roller Coaster Beginsโฆ.
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 โฌ๏ธ 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 โJust give me 10 daysโ R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are!
I learned MY choices created an emotional ๐ข 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 โฆ This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

Hi! I'm going to give this a try, my first 10 day challenge and it seems doable. I'm struggling with motivation at this point in the year - hoping to get logging back on track, stop snacking and drink more water! I work out plenty but I'm having an issue with staying below calories. Two small kids and a husband who are always snacking is not helping. I lost 20 lbs last year, have put 5 back on, and I don't want any more coming back! Hoping to lose 20 more this year.

Just trying to be healthy. Weight loss is an extra bonus.
Eventual weight goal = 164
12/27 = 175 sleep not good, eating not good, no exercise. Why do I white knuckle it through the difficult time, then fall apart immediately after? Gotta do better!
Let's end this year on a high note!
Or low weight, depending on how you look at it.10
