12/29 - 187.0, 5,882 steps, low for the day, need to work on getting a walk in or getting on the treadmill. Did not track my water again.
12/30 - 188.0, 6,067 steps, low for the day but I am tracking and really that is my main goal this week. Did not track water. Overall a good day. Did some work, had to spend time on the phone getting our internet and tv fixed. Almost 2 hours, not fun but things seem to be so much better now. Ended the evening by doing up some new nails.

2024 will be the year when I finally alter my relationship to food.
RND 246, my RND 2:
SW: 147.6
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...
12/30: 145.2- stomach issue, I was on BRAT yesterday, this probably won't stick...
12/31: 145.2 held steady even with family party. Body Pump this AM.
1/1 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆

R146 goals—return to tracking & daily weigh ins (from 12/31), no snacking after dinner, no ice cream, cut back on cheese, bread, and pasta, walk at least 30 minutes most days
Day, Weight, Comment
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.
12/30 - DNW
Ok, last day of my no-weigh-in break. I suspect I’ll be up a couple of pounds from my last weigh in, which was 189 at the end of R143, but I’ll (re)start where I am. Yesterday my calories were low (1220) but I did have cereal & almond milk around 9 p.m. because I really was hungry. Ok, off to groom the doggy! Happy last Saturday of 2023!
12/31 - 191
Well, there it is. 2023 has been a fat year for me—I’m up 12.4 pounds. Emotional self-sabotage, and it has to stop. So my goals for 2024–- sleep and get up earlier,
- meditate 10 minutes minimum per day,
- move more,
- try not to eat after dinner but if I am really hungry, eat something light and healthy,
- eat more responsibly when out for lunch with friends,
- Calories <1400 most days.
01/01 - Happy New Year!

My Round 1 sw= 175.6 ew=174.8
Round 2 sw= 175.4 ew= 173.2
Round 3 sw= 172.6 ew = didn't weigh
Round 4 sw= 177.8 ew= 174
Round 5 sw= 174.8 ew= 174.8
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!
12/30 = 176.4 sleep ok, eating bad, no exercise.
12/31 = 177

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

My 240th round!
SW RND 246 134.5
12/28 131.5 Drank plenty of water, 16g total carbs Going to brunch with friends at 11. Be strong, be strong, be strong.
12/29 133.5 Potatoes and toast with steak & eggs yesterday. I ate about 2/3 oz of cheddar and 2 strips of bacon for “supper.”This weight should go quickly. Having Chicken Crack Casserole today. Arts and crafts “get rid of the goodies day” today.
12/30 134.5 No idea why my weight is up except possibly not enough water. The keto bar cookies I made (I didn’t have any leftover goodies) were quite popular. Our California neighbors are coming up today and she is planning to make a ham dinner for some of us while they are here. I hope she realizes that people make plans for New Year’s Eve!

Karen🌸
@AR10at50 Nopity-Nope. I guess it is not to be. I really wanted to be in those illusive 170's at the end of the year too! However, I was 199,8 on Dec 31st 2022 so I have lost exactly exactly 16 pounds in 2023 so I am grateful. I have a lot of work to do in 2024 but I'm up for the task! Happy New Year to you Karen!7 -

12/29 -179.8- (Trend weight 179.3)
12/30 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) I forgot to take my weekly Fosamax so I took it this morning with a large glass of water. I forgot to weigh first so I’ll have to see the damage another day. I baked all day yesterday and made fudge. I also cleaned the house spick & span top to bottom in anticipation for today’s Family Christmas event. I know my weight is up due to all the BLT’s and the lack of real structured exercise. This will be followed by the Feast today. Tomorrow will not be pretty on the scale. Unfortunately it is the end of the month as well as the end of the year tomorrow and I would like a final tally so I will probably have to bite the bullet and get on the scale and lump it. January will be my atonement.
12/31 -183.8- (Trend weight 180.2)”Pulling hair out on both sides of head” Yiiikesssss! It looks like I’ve got my work cut out for me!!!!! You are NOT GOING TO BELIEVE what my secret Santa present was. (We buy for children and draw names for adults only). Get ready for this…..Hundreds of dollars worth of Chocolate!!!! It is designed to be 365 days of chocolate with a piece (or a serving as listed) for each day of the coming year. Every expensive and fancy brand you can think of. And my secret person was MY FOODIE DAUGHTER that is here so often. Excuse me….how many talks have I had with her 100 pound frame about how I am trying to improve my diet and LOSE WEIGHT? Has she forgotten that I am a DIABETIC? By the way, NOT ONE PIECE is sugar-free chocolate. It was accompanied by multiple bottles of Asti and some very nice lotion. She had purchased a wrapping paper hanging tote thingy and filled the clear pockets with the poison. It was so heavy that she had to have one of the men carry it in for her. WTH? I must tell you that my daughter is the type of person who could actually just eat one small piece or one little truffle per day and have no problem stopping at one. I am not. I am trying to formulate a plan. Simply freezing it will not work as I have no problem melting chocolate in my mouth. On top of all that, I’m still loaded down with Christmas Cookies and fudge from our gathering as well. My head has been spinning since I opened the gift last night! Help! My reflection on 2023: I lost a total of 16 pounds and I learned to eat some new foods that are helpful to my health and diet. Happy New Years Eve, my friends. Stay safe out there!

End of RND 245 - 222.8
12/28~ (Day 21) - 221.7 ~ Planning, when will I learn?
12/29~ (Day 22) - 222. ~ I am feeling positive today.
12/30~ (Day 23) -221.1 ~ Woo hoo!!! 10 pounds gone forever!
12/31~ (Day 24) -220.2 ~ Last day of 2023! Make it Work.
~ Almost noon and not a thing accomplished. So, I’m going to post, get up off my a** and get moving. It’s a pretty day; cool, slightly overcast, and dry. I’m headed out the door for a walk and perhaps some beach time depending on the tide. Then, what to cook for dinner? I’m staying home safe tonight with my husband with a toast at midnight to start the new year. Happy New your to you all. Be safe and my god bless you all with a successful, New year-New you!
Whatever you are not changing, you are choosing.
Read that again!6 -
@deepwoodslady WTH! is right, who does this? Well, hubby does. To 'celebrate' my 10lb loss he brought home a gallon of my favorite ice cream, I can avoid this, but I don't understand
. Now, what to do with a year's worth of chocolate? 4 -
@deepwoodslady, Donna, you've been doing so well! Your current gain I'm sure is just fluid. Freeze the chocolate anyway. Freeze the fudge, freeze the cookies. Bury most of it deep enough that you have to dig for it. Leave a small amount that's visible. Maybe enough for 14 days worth of small treats., not daily treats. Keep it at 1 chocolate or 1 piece of fudge or 2 cookies. Don't wait until you are desperate for something sweet because you may overeat it.

I’m a 65 year young gal working on getting rid of those last 8 pounds. Last go-around I didn’t always manage to get my steps in due to my walking partner (dog) being on house arrest due to a pulled muscle. Also went on a mini vacation. This round I would like to get back on track so I can start the next round strong! Here we go! We got this! And yes, I’m late to this party due to that mini-vacation!

@deepwoodslady I might be alone here, but I say give it back “RETURN TO SENDER” or throw it away. Seriously. What kind of passive aggressive gesture is that? It’s similar to someone giving a fifth of vodka to a recovering alcoholic.WTF? (I can’t bring myself to write WTH because it definitely qualifies for WTF?! ) Give it back to her… And ask her to “keep it in safekeeping” for you both to enjoy a small bite whenever she visits… Just tell her you don’t trust yourself to keep it in the house because you are determined to move forward in 2024! Did she buy a present for herself? please please please get it out of your house and you will be so proud that you did! Self-care is the best care! ❤️🥰😘5

I think this is excellent advice, maybe it will make her think? I know it is hard to do with our loved ones, but maybe she will realise she has gone a step too far this time?3 -
65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 246 (my 176th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to, get strong again over the 'twixt' period, holiday abroad (9 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.

SW DNW
RND 246
12/28 DNW - no structured walking yesterday, atrocious weather; persistent rain and high winds, 377 calories over.
12/29 DNW – no structured walking, weather still awful ☹☹☹.
12/30 140.4 – very pleased with this number, travelled back home – on the back of a recovery truck ☹, brakes failed despite the car being in the garage for them to be done just 2 weeks ago, It was taken to a garage in the next town to have the independent investigation done on why this has happened, had to wait for a courtesy car, such a long day with all the waiting around for breakdown truck etc., that went to bed early without eating any tea as I was shattered!! No structured walking 202 calories in deficit.
12/31 140.4 – glad the number stuck, 4.44 miles walked, all exercise calories plus 62 eaten back.
1/1 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆 140.8 – 11.43 miles walked, all calories eaten back. Hope you all enjoy/ed your celebrations, we danced the night away into the early hours, such a good night with like-minded company, feet are a little achy, but the great satisfaction overshadows that!!
I didn’t meet my mileage goal last year, no excuses here, I average 7.73 miles per day, will try to meet it again this year !!

RND 246, my RND 2:
SW: 147.6
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...
12/30: 145.2- stomach issue, I was on BRAT yesterday, this probably won't stick...
12/31: 145.2 held steady even with family party. Body Pump this AM.
1/1: 146.2- no surprise, with my daughter and her family to play games for NYE; lots of snack foods for "dinner". I'm here and I weighed! I took "before" photos, which I'll do once a month.
