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!
01/01 -181.6- (Trend weight 180.3) Wishing you all the very best in 2024 as you continue to work toward your goals. Remember, I am one of your biggest cheerleaders!

Sounds like a great plan to me.
I would also tell her, while you're talking, that she doesn't need to spend so much $$ on gifts, showing that she cares is gift enough.
I eat Lindt 85% chocolate for exactly the reasons you mentioned. I eat less and less through the years. By choice, not depriving myself.
@Corina1143 Good idea about adding how much she spends to the talk. Our limit per person was $150.00. That does not mean we have to spend the 150. It is our upper limit. She may not have understood this. She just had to buy a car and is into car payments and high full-coverage Michigan car insurance now. With her current budget she really could not afford to spend what she spent. I will explain to her, as you have suggested, that it is our limit, not our goal. Drawing names is actually kind of new to our family party. Thanks for the input.5 -
Hi @cchhassee & @reshii_dei 😁. Thank you for the kind words and the much-needed kick in the butt. Just the motivation I needed it to get out and walk today. I got 2 miles in and feel much better for it.
Love the 2024 Mirror Mantra: ‘You're healthy, vibrant, toned and beautiful. #glowgirl‘ I need to put that on my mirror!
Thank you❤️5 -
@deepwoodslady :
I'm a newcomer, so it's helpful to hear how people deal with tough food situations- your plan sounds like it shows both understanding of your daughter's intention and a clear sense of what you need. A great plan.5 -

Jen; 47; 5'4"
About Me:This is my eighteenth round and looking forward to participating again.
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 and I just started a job in November 2023 after being a stay-at-home mom for 23+ years which makes getting any outdoor exercise difficult.

12/30 - 218.6 - 8608 steps
12/31 - 219.4 - 8121 steps - (Forgot to post this last night) Today was the last day I gave myself permission to pig out and just eat what I want without weighing or counting calories or even caring about what I was eating. The last week, I'd had all the things I had been missing for the previous 5+ months and I have no regrets. Today before lunch, I had some Sour Cream & Onion chips then my husband ordered pizza so I grabbed a few Philly Cheesesteak slices as I left for work. Then after work, I ate some more pizza and had the rest of my chips and dip I bought yesterday to celebrate the end of the year. Tomorrow is a new day and I'll be back on track. I already packed up the uneaten bags of chips to take downstairs in the morning so they won't tempt me. I can't wait for the new year and what it will bring. I really think I'll hit my goal of 165lbs by the end of the year. At the very least, I'll get below 200lbs sometime this year and that will be awesome because I haven't been that light in 24 years.
1/1 - 218.4 - ? steps - I did good today. I had half a sandwich for lunch before work and a full sandwich on my lunch break with some grape tomatoes and half portion of veggie straws. When I got home I had the last of the Christmas leftovers, one small slice of pizza and some more veggie straws. I was still under my calories for the day so I think I'm back on track. I was kind of hungry at work, but we were also talking about food a lot (my co-worker got an instant pot so I've been giving her tips).

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.

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 !!
1/2 141.4 – a good day yesterday, 11.8 miles walked, ¾ exercise calories eaten back.

I'm Julie. 35 years old. SAHM to two year old twins.
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.
12/30: 134.7. I did another 4 mile run yesterday, but that was all. No walks or anything else active. Again, food was okay, but not great choices.
12/31: 137.1. I had a few beers and wings yesterday, so I was expecting an increase in weight. Also, no exercise. I just had a lazy day since my kids were at my mom's.
1/1 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆: 137.8. Must have a lot of water weight. I ran 6 miles yesterday and am a little sore from it. I also drank more water than usual. I ate well, possibly a bit high on sodium, but nothing crazy.
1/2: 136.5. Yesterday was a pretty good day. Ate well, tracked my food. Did a 4 mile run. My weight is a bit higher than I would like still, but hopefully that will come back down soon.

SW: 147.6
Goal this round: stick to the plan, weigh a little less at the end.
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.
1/2: 145.4- Pretty sure yesterday's "bump" was the amazingly high sodium from NYE. Today was great, gym, good food, water, tea after dinner. I'm very aware how often I sit down to relax in the evening and my first impulse is to "graze". I think that's my biggest hurdle- this habit needs to change because at some point I'll skip the carrots and grab the chips. I need to disconnect reward/relax time from munching!

Back for another round. Began a week before Thanksgiving at 203. 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!
12/28-195
12/29-195
12/30-195
12/31-194 Logging my food after every meal! Drink more water, less coffee!
01/01-194 Went to see UCONN women play Marquette with Liz and Dennis. Great game, ate popcorn and a hot dog with roll. Came home and didn't fall apart. Right back with LowCarb!! *Note to self- Special occasions of any sort are like walking on a cliff edge with the wind blowing towards the sea. Don't test yourself.

Yesterday: ✅macros & 1414 cal,🚶♀️9.2k, ✅🏋️♀️10 min. 110 ex min total, 🔥800ex cal, 💗Z2 - 59 min. That weight fluctuation was from eating different foods later than usual for NYE. Im on such a routine (❤️) that a disruption causes havoc. I felt it all day yesterday… Late in late out! 😂 still super puffy. Living 💦 today!
Ive experienced a sad 3-4 days. I felt defeated yesterday. (Family hurts not body). I did not resort to bad food choices… (yes, an NSV) but I have little to zero momentum/joy or drive to accomplish my exercise goals. The battle in my mind is exhausting. I know with certainty that I will come out of it, but it is ever-present right now. I pushed myself for a 🏋️♀️ & walk yesterday & felt better, but I “need” to lift weights & it’s a battle. I only got in 10 minutes 🏋️♀️, but will count that as a win. I will be patient with myself & know this cloud will lift. I “will” it AWAY! Step behind me now! A momentum shift will come soon. Will read many affirmations this morning and pray. B E L I E V E! I do feel better already typing this…
I’m sharing this for others to know that we all have burdens to carry… and own individual mind games/triggers. My toughest battle is between my ears.
I’m grateful for this group. Thank you for sharing your vulnerabilities.
I’m determined to have a positive day today 💪🏻 & I hope you do too! 🙌🏻
Today: 🎾, 🚶♀️🏋️♀️

Yesterday: Early 🎾fun - some 💗Z2. Had to force myself to 🏋️♀️after… I always come up with so many excuses… Of course, I felt terrific when I checked-off that commitment. 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. Researched: one 24 hr fast per wk. Then one 48 or 72hr fast every three months ... no more than that. Seems radical but based on solid science. Thinking on it.

12/29. *** The positive energy from choosing discipline, embracing my plan & respecting the goals that I claimed for myself (yes me & no one else) is FAR FAR better than a fleeting, momentary tastebud party or “high” derived from rat poison carbs or piddling and waisting the entire day. *** repeating this to myself over & over because I had to coerce myself to walk yesterday … Why?!
Today: 🚶♀️🏋️♀️? I may not get to exercise today, because I have to deal with car troubles again… water/coffee fast until InBody tomorrow 9AM.

⚖️ 131.0 is real. Sure hope it’s added muscle? Zero 🚫 day. Did it even happen? Did not accomplish anything except sat in car dealership for hrs. Fasted until 3 PM then opted for eggs.

12/31 Yesterdays “InBody” threw me for a loop… it’s ultra sensitive so Im somewhat skeptical (timing of 💦/dietary/TMI fluctuations). Need to measure once a month for six months to get a truly solid reading. Results: I still need to +3.1 muscle & -2.3 fat… (Which basically says I accomplished NOTHING for two months!) I lost 2.5lbs but the majority of it was muscle & gained fat. YIKES! Skeptical of scan results because I know I’m stronger… I definitely need to add more muscle & lose fat - the exact amount is ? at this point… confirms I’m simply not spending enough time in the gym. Also confirms that 130-132lbs is realistic maintenance for me … not below 130. The end result : I will build muscle, eat healthy & stay committed. This is very hard stuff. Onward. Focus on 🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️.
Bring on the New Year!🍾🎉🎈
Affirmation: Consistency in healthy habits leads to extraordinary results.

Health Journey
****************
Pre- college: 125-130lbs
In college, I ballooned to 160lbs one year…
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!!!!

SW RND 246 237.4
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.
12/30 237 A miracle I stayed the same as we saw Wonka last night and I ate a giant popcorn. We did take the dog for a walk and my meals weren't terrible. Today we have a big family celebration at the Legion.
12/31 236 Our visit with my Dad was great. We are on the road home today.. the ride is about 11 hours so my steps will be minimal. Road food as we didn't have anything to pack. Would be different if I was back in my good habits. Something to think of for future trips.
1/1 237.4 Yesterday was road trip snacks, fast food, appetizers, and some alcohol to ring in the New Year. A ton of excess has me back where I started this round which is to be expected. I'm back home and getting back in my routine so I expect things to head in a positive direction now. Happy New Year all!
1/2 236.4 Back to work today after a long stretch off. Yesterday was a good day on track with all aspects of my goals. Have a good plan to keep that up today.

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 - Everything logged the best I could. Went on a 3.2 mile hike with the family. Slow but steady. Under calories met macros, met step goal, drank a lot of water. 11,000 steps
12/30 – 163.1 – date night, made it to gym class, first green smoothie (lemon not my fav), happy to have stayed under calorie and been able to splurge in what I was eating at the same time! 10,000 steps
12/31- 163.1 – weightlifted, very proud of the gains I have made in strength even though I’m still much weaker than I have been in the past, water intake was good, calories weren’t bad, squeaked in under total, green smoothie success, my phone died so I’m not sure on steps overall but it was over 8,000
1/1 HAPPY NEW YEAR – 163.4 – Not bad after celebrating since we ate a lot of fried food – rocked an early morning kickboxing class, green smoothie again (I’m getting better at ratios), starting my “damp” January today – 25 days AF, water and calories were great - 15,858 steps
1/2 – 162.2!– lowest I’ve been in a while! Hopeful some of it sticks! goals – stay within calories, figure out some plant based lunch ideas and meal plan, keep AF

1/2 231 Until November I was still going to the gym twice a week, however in the month of December I made it in 3 times for the entire month! No large declarations, more water, ginger/cinnamon/turmeric/little bit of honey shot nightly. It's a boost on metabolism...of course back to the gym...Honestly I miss it.

Good morning!
Very pleasantly surprised at the results of what I would consider a pretty perfect health conscious day. Couple of juices, a small lunch, plenty water and a decent amount of walking and exercise as well as a tight 5hr eating window. Much the same again today except there’s a couple of hours of tennis to be added to the mix this evening as we prep the coming season.

Cori, 74, f, 5'8", starting weight 220s
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
1/1 = 177.8 bad day yesterday, ate better than I have been, lots of room for improvement. Bad nights sleep. Too cold to walk, so walked the aisles at Walmart, but it was crowded, so walked slowly trying not to run over people. It's too cold to walk outside today and the gym is closed. I'm up 4.6 pounds in December and another .8 today. I don't want to gain back what I've lost, and I'm tired of losing and gaining the same weight over and over. Ive got to figure this out.
1/2 = 176.6 didn't eat well, didn't walk, didn't sleep well

Tell me more, please! I'm training up for my first 10k (April 28th) and I have my first trail run (5k, June 1) and an annual run in November (unsure if 5k or 10k, depends on how April goes).
@CamandJarvis do a search on Run the Edge and you can sign up for the program. I created a team there so if you sign up let me know and I will invite you to the team also. I like having a poster which I fill in with my mileage too.
Also there is a monthly running group on MFP in the challenges section which is quite active and very supportive and informative.
I signed up! I don't know if I'll hit all the miles since I'm still fairly new to running (I've never run longer than 5k in one go before) but I'll give it a go. I like the poster idea a lot and that's what really got me to give it a go6
