12/28 235.4, MBS 171. They say that every journey begins with a single Krispy Kreme Doughnut..... no not really. But there is so much candy and homemade pastry in this house! Gonna be an interesting start. My goals this ten days 1) gain no weight, 2) Morning Blood Sugars down to the 140's by the end of the period, and 3) log in every day. Challenging enough!

12/28 - DNW
I tracked yesterday. Calories were very low, not because I skimped on meals but because I did not snack!. I knitted all through evening tv time, and had no urge to eat, so thats what I plan to do going forward. Guess I’d better start something big but mindless!

12/27 …..179.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/28 -179.4- (Trend weight 179.3) It was not a perfect day yesterday, but not too bad either. I kept the snacks at bay. Meals were on target. I danced for the first time in awhile and I could feel that it would help tighten my stomach which I need. Today I travel to get the groceries for our Main Christmas Feast on Saturday. Also, I have to stop and give bloodwork at the hospital for an upcoming appointment. Dinner will be out but I will try to choose wisely. Tomorrow is baking day, oh my. Good luck everyone this round. The holidays are not quite over yet but we got this, right?

Hi, I'm Charissa
Thank you, QuiltingJaine for keeping us focused!

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 -
🏋🏾♀️ 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 🍎and 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>

12/28 223.8 ~ This morning was a Don't think, just do it morning. I set the alarm to make sure I woke up in time to exercise. I wanted to turn over and go back to sleep but I didn't. Went to the gym. Weights: Arms & Legs. 10 minutes on the bike and 20 minutes on the treadmill. Always happy when it's done!🙂 Lots of junk in the house from the holidays. I forgot I made Buckeyes as they were in the refrigerator. I tried one and then had another, they were so good. I'm going to freeze them into individual servings for portion control
. The rest of the stuff is going out (garbage) tonight. We leave tomorrow for Vegas for 3+ days so I will come back to an empty house and start with a clean slate!

Round 246
Dec 28, 2023 – Jan 6, 2024
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!

My name’s Dawn. It’s 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. I’m 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!

Hi Dawn - your post looks almost exactly like mine - even age and height I'm here with you as we get it together in 2024! 6 -

53 y/o Female - 5’3”
SW: 155.8 - heaviest I’ve been since childbirth (my youngest is 14). Joined MFP in 2011 and got down to bouncing between 125-130 lbs consistently for several years. Over the past 2 years I have gained 25 lbs - with 16 of them coming in 2023. It’s time for me to get back to basics and do what I know works. Be active, be consistent, log everything.
Happy New Year! Here’s to a productive and successful 2024 🥳

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.
SW RND 246
12/28: 147.6 (estimated- will weigh tomorrow AM. Added 1 lb from last challenge)
12/29: 146.6 actual! I managed to hold steady through Christmas! And I got on the scale! And that after going to a friend's home for dinner last night, which is difficult to break down. Small step forward, all downward from here...

Short on steps so walked again in afternoon. Had 🥩 for lunch and chuck burger for dinner (No bread). (Much more than I usually eat - hungry from extended workout.)
Today: ?🚶♀️🤸🏼🎾 Holiday dinner tonight with friends. Thinking about a water/black coffee fast starting tonight leading up to InBody 12/30 @9AM. Really want to get back to ketosis.

1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs
UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)
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 remained @ 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 somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. Started tracking 7/15. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130 determined to…. be in the
📣#bestshapeofmylife 📣
I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to maintain 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 8 weeks up to 2020ish … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

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 RHR 59 💚 Not a bad day - got a lot done. Maybe did not run as much as usual which made my RHR bounce up a little overnight.
12/29 RHR 60 💛

SW RND 246: 137.2
12/28: 134.8. I did it! I finally went back to the gym and ran 3 miles. Not a ton, but happy to get started after taking most of the month off.
12/29: 135.3. I ran 4 miles yesterday. It feels good to be running again. Food was okay- not great choices but somewhat low quantity. I haven't started tracking calories again, that's probably going to happen in the New Year.

12/28 237.4 Well folks, I never left MFP, but I certainly haven't been taking things seriously in 2023, and I have a lot of regain to show for it. I did my best when I was way more active here, so it's time to start. Missed you all!
12/29 237 At my dad's house with my travel scale but no food scale. It's been a long while since I've consistently tracked my food so I'm going to need to get back into the habit when I get home. Nice to see a move in the right direction today.

RND 246: My Journey ~ Round 3
F, 67, 5’4" ~ SW-231 Ultimate goal weight of 160lb at the end of my round 32.
End of last round- 222.8
12/28~ (Day 21) - 221.7 ~ Planning, when will I learn?
12/29~ (Day 22) -222. ~ I am feeling positive today.
~Though the weather is terrible I will walk after work today. 2 miles is the goal. My knee, you are probably tired of hearing about it (sorry), is still stiff and sore from my last walk. It doesn't help sitting most of the day for work, I do get up and walk the stairs at least once every couple of hours and stretch a bit. Hopefully, the stiffness and pain will ease up a bit soon. I was a full year before the last knee replacement was totally pain-free. I must remember that and keep up the rehab. I have a new bike I want to get on ASAP.Whatever you are not changing, you are choosing.

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.
SW 164.6 RND 246
12/28 - 164.6 – good day logging, under my calorie goal and managed to work out (30 min walk, 20 min stretch) even though I wasn’t feeling it. Even hit my macros. Subbed cotton candy grapes for dessert and it was filling and delicious!
12/29 – 164.4 (weighed a second time an hour later and was down to 163.8 which was confusing, going with first weight) - todays goal is to go on a hike with the family

12/28 - DNW
I tracked yesterday. Calories were very low, not because I skimped on meals but because I did not snack!. I knitted all through evening tv time, and had no urge to eat, so thats what I plan to do going forward. Guess I’d better start something big but mindless!
12/29 - DNW
I did reasonably well yesterday, but was hungry at night and had a few Triscuits with cheese quite late. Better than ice cream! I’m going to pay attention, but I think on days when I have a very light breakfast, I’m hungrier at night, and when I have more food, especially protein, I’m not hungry later. So, 2 scrambled eggs + coffee this morning! We’ll see.

12/28 - 155.4
12/29 - 153.9 - Better! Low carb day went okay. The cabbage dumplings were a nightmare since the cabbage leaves tore more often than they didn't. I was pleasantly surprised with the ones I managed to make though BF wasn't. I remainder of the filling I made into chicken meatballs using pork rind "breadcrumbs" and BF liked those better. Dinner was Marry Me Chicken which ended up being a lot less of a "one pot dinner" and required sides. Fortunately I had some burger lettuce and I had harvested some of my spring mix plants to allow enough greenery for BF and I to make a salad. Our septic system may need a full replacement - it may be too small and it overflowed. The company we paid to drain and inspect both tanks prior to purchase of this house ended up only draining and inspecting one... Ugh. Emergency drain cost over $500 and now we're looking at over $15,000 in the coming months. Stress relief is going to be a focus now.

Previous Day's Comments12/28 - 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.

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 -
🏋🏾♀️ 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 🍎and 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>

12/28 223.8 ~ This morning was a Don't think, just do it morning. I set the alarm to make sure I woke up in time to exercise. I wanted to turn over and go back to sleep but I didn't. Went to the gym. Weights: Arms & Legs. 10 minutes on the bike and 20 minutes on the treadmill. Always happy when it's done!🙂 Lots of junk in the house from the holidays. I forgot I made Buckeyes as they were in the refrigerator. I tried one and then had another, they were so good. I'm going to freeze them into individual servings for portion control. The rest of the stuff is going out (garbage) tonight. We leave tomorrow for Vegas for 3+ days so I will come back to an empty house and start with a clean slate!
12/29 223.6 ~ 🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!! Weights: Shoulders, Back and a little chest🙂 30 minutes on the treadmill. Ready for mini vacation!!

12/27 …..179.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/28 -179.4- (Trend weight 179.3) It was not a perfect day yesterday, but not too bad either. I kept the snacks at bay. Meals were on target. I danced for the first time in awhile and I could feel that it would help tighten my stomach which I need. Today I travel to get the groceries for our Main Christmas Feast on Saturday. Also, I have to stop and give bloodwork at the hospital for an upcoming appointment. Dinner will be out but I will try to choose wisely. Tomorrow is baking day, oh my. Good luck everyone this round. The holidays are not quite over yet but we got this, right?
12/29 -179.8- (Trend weight 179.3) I am teetering on re-entering the 180’s which is horrifying for me after all the hard work. Yesterday was travel (restaurants and sitting), today is the biggest baking day of the year (bites, tastes and licks) and tomorrow is the Family Feast and Gift Opening with all the children/spouses and grandchildren. So the numbers are only going to get worse. I’ll do my best but I know my weaknesses and my limits. January better watch out as I am coming at it with a vengeance!

Back for another round. Starting weight this round is 195. Goal weight this round is 193. Ultimate goal is 156 pounds. Biggest mistakes last round: not enough water, mixed nuts, and inaccurate tracking. So....... start every day with a 1/2 liter of water after weigh in, track food as you eat. Make a plan for each day and stick to it! Nothing changes if nothing changes! It's the Carbs!!! Stay away from the nuts, give em to the squirrels!
