Round 251 * My Journey (Rnd 7)🤔Today’s thoughts...SW 216.0 lb. this round.
SW 231.0 lb. * UGW 145 lb. ~ Karla, 67y, 5'4" ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~- (Day 76) We - 02/21 ✴ 219.5 lb.: Up again. Still recovering from my binge earlier this round. I will not whine. I earned the extra and hope to lose it before the end of this round. We’ll see.
- 💧Water 50oz+ daily
- 🥑 Healthy eating; fats, vegetables, fruits, high protein & fiber, 1400 kcal.
- 👣 Intentional movement, 30 min. daily; walking, strength, etc.
🤞What's ahead...- (Day 71) Fr - 02/16 ✴ 216.8 lb.:💧40 oz.; 👣 10 min.; 🥑Ate well, not as many vegetables as usual, but then it was a light day on eating. Just not that hungry or it could be the big protein this morning. Whatever, it feels good.
- (Day 72) Sa - 02/17 ✴ 215.4 lb.:💧52oz.; 👣 0 min.; 🥑Working with the protein to stay satisfied.
- (Day 74) Mo - 02/19 ✴ 215.8 lb.:💧58oz.; 👣 10min.; 🥑Way over on kcal. 712 kcal !wow! I ate my feelings. Saw the ortho today, drained synovial fluid from the knee (labs pending), also had a Toradol injection and cortisone in the joint. 4 months post-op. Now regretting I didn’t have a full knee done. I should always listen to my gut.
- (Day 75) Tu - 02/20 ✴ 218.8 lb.:💧58 oz.; 👣 20 min.; 🥑I did much better today. Really good food, all fresh and non-processed, barely under my new 1400 kcal. (I dropped off the extra 50 kcal) We’ll see if it helps. After yesterday’s debacle I am again focused and hoping the jump in weight is temporary. After calculating the journey so far. I have dropped 15.5 pounds in 75 days. That averages a bit over 2 lbs. lost per 10-day challenge, quite respectable I’d say.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 251 (my 181st). Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going, so grateful.
Goals for this round; to lose! And to break the “always looking for something to put in my mouth” syndrome!
Good luck everyone for a successful round.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.

2/16 DNW
2/17 144.4 – so there it is the weight at the end of the family holiday, luckily not too much of a hike and something to work at. We spent yesterday at National Trust property Errdig, DGC played in the woods, climbed the trees, balanced on the fallen trees, enjoyed the tree swing and after our picnic enjoyed toasting marshmallows before we all went our separate ways to travel home. A wonderful family week; it seemed really quiet when we got home !!
2/18 143.6 – 11.22 miles walked; 36% of exercise calories eaten back. It feels good to be back in the swing!!
2/19 142.2 – 9.48 miles walked; 10% exercise calories eaten back.
2/20 142.2 – 7.75 miles walked; 55% of exercise calories eaten back.
2/21 142.6 - 8.67 miles walked, got out to walk early before meeting up with sisters for lunch and a spot of leisurely mooching around Lichfield; 70% of exercise calories eaten back.
2/22 142.6 – 9.44 miles walked (during heavy drizzle ☹), all exercise calories eaten back.

I’m a 65 year young Oregon gal, working to hit my next goal of 130. The plan this round continues to be a minimum of 10,000 steps 👣, 2-3 days a week at the gym🏋️♀️, logging ✏️ everyday with no snacking after 8:00, and limiting the 🍷to social events only. And of course guzzling the water 💧!!!

Previous R251 Daily Comments:
********************************2/16 131.0lbs. It’s important to me to have a new focus every round. (Not just a continuation of the previous round). For 20 rounds now, I’ve viewed this time as “becoming” vs “being” I’m basically at my destination- so now what? I thought “maintenance” was just about maintaining weight but it’s actually LIVING a new daily life … I want this WOE to be who I am at my core. And, how do I live each day with everything in my life supporting that choice?!…. It’s pretty simple… If it doesn’t fit, get rid of it… And start something new… And LOVING IT!! 🍀to all! Let’s get it done!
2/17 Yesterday was another non-routine day. Started reading “Habit Mechanic”. A “how to” tool book/workbook combining behavioral science, neuroscience and psychology to identify unwanted habits and start new ones. If serious about weight loss, changing any aspect of your life & becoming the best version of yourself, I highly recommend it. Today will be another cold, wet, ugly day, … I’ll be able to get in 🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼. Hope to 🚶♀️but the weather may not cooperate. Food is planned.
Also want to thank @quiltingjaine and @camandjarvis for your detailed, thoughtful responses. My thinking cap is on.
2/18 I read yesterday to not focus on gaining muscle until body fat % down. I’m looking forward to speaking to my “trainer” Friday. I know it could sound to most I’m splitting hairs but ever since she told me, “Skinny Fat” … oh gosh just … oh gosh! I felt really, really bad. A friend of mine said, “WELL, I’d much rather be skinny fat than just plain ole FAT!” Well not me. I’ve been athletic most of my life, and to learn that I’m NOT “in shape” when I sincerely believed I was, was alarming … After 8 wks of going from ZERO to moderate 🤸🏼🏋️♀️, I’m definitely feeling more tone & stronger. I WILL keep trusting that the process is working & the scan shows it…. But…. ngl, I’m apprehensive about Friday. Let’s just keep focused and DO the work ….Today: very cold and extra windy (for me) 🙆♀️🤸🏼🏋️♀️ inside this morn & will🚶♀️later weather permitting. Food planned.
2/19 ⚖️ 131.2lbs
✅ all systems go & 13k 🚶♀️as well as 🤸🏼🙆♀️💗. Solid day.
Visited Renpho (⚖️) settings. I was using the old app that is no longer supported. Updated it. My stats are more in line with the InBody and make more sense now. So…. I will be interested to see how close Friday InBody scan comes to this current software/my scale. Will let you know (For all you Renfro users.) May no longer need the InBody.
I’m now one week into my new macros that I’ve hit consistently … No measurable/noticeable change…
2/2/20 Only 6k steps yesterday. ✅ for all other measures.
Today’s affirmations:
“An identity shift is crucial to keeping fat off for life. You must develop the habits and mindset of a fit person.”
“Just because your weight isn’t moving down doesn’t mean you aren’t making progress. When you first start lifting you can lose inches off your waist without losing lbs on the scale.”
Looking forward to a key tennis match in a few hours…. 😎. My team tied for first…. we have a gorgeous, fun day ahead!
Dinner with friends this eve. I’m Prepared… Shrimp Ceviche!
2/21⚖️ 131.6
✅on all cylinders. A day full of exercise & sunshine! We won our tennis match which was seriously fun. Playing again this morn. Not loving the scale but am determined to listen to my positive voice. I had a great day (food-wise), 💦, and last night at dinner instead of ceviche-ordered a grilled mix - quite satisfying. Today is another high-protein day & outdoor day. Onward.
NSV-Proud of myself for plowing through this process, even though the results aren’t “visible” yet-feeling strong.
2/22 132.0 ✅all measures except not enough protein macros. Yesterday was my heavy protein day, and I was 20g short…
Something clicked for me this morning… I keep focusing on my weight in pounds instead of focusing on BF%, that I’ve been working on…. According to my scale, I’m ⬇️1.2% in BF%. (Which is a GREAT trend if accurate!). Usually, I forget about the trends because I figured the logarithm was just tied into body weight. This is the FIRST time my weight went up, but my BF% went down. Looking forward to comparing Renpho to the Inbody scan tomorrow. I’m pleased with the moderate 🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼 I’ve incorporated into a routine… & so certainly there must be progress. Hoping to see confirmation tomorrow. I’m preparing for the worst, however… All I know is that I have been moving , lifting weights, and stretching regularly for two months… And gosh, I’m feeling so good! Plenty of confidence!
I didn’t sleep the night before so I went to bed super early last night. Managed to get eight hours sleep even though I woke up at 4AM. (Only slept two hours Tues night.)
Today: 🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼Outdoors again! Bridge tonight. Prepared.
NSV: I was EXHAUSTED around 5 o’clock yesterday… I really did not want to eat ONE MORE chicken breast… Instead, I ate the most delicious avocado! I was shy of my protein goal, but was ✅ in carbs and fat. When you screw up by eating an avocado vs a chicken breast, you know you’re in for the win! 🤣🤣🤣
(Sleep or lack thereof, definitely impacts decisions…)

About Me & Health Journey
****************************
F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean Ketovore 🥩. Track macros, kcals, all exercise and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010.
I have ALWAYS been ON a “diet” since high school. I have never been comfortable with my body - no matter my weight.
Pre- college: 125-130lbs
College- 160lbs one year… graduated @130lbs.
1990 (Age 32) - Avg.135/140 lbs
2000 (Age 42) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) Avg 150, HW 172 lbs in 2010. 130 by end of 2014.
2020 (Age 62) 130-135lbs
7/2023 (Age 64) 145lbs
1/2024 (Age 65) 130lbs
UGW = 129-130lbs
⬆️SMM: 100lbs +
Initial BF% : 22%
Aug 14, 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take serious control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 11/15/2014. Weight @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
Another 🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140 lbs. Always self-conscious.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 10/30 - held 130lbs till 2/1/23.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much. Nutrition has always been somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was THE issue. Started tracking again 7/15/23. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130ish determined to…. STOP the 🎢 & be in the
📣#bestshapeofmylife 📣
The yo-yo is exhausting & unhealthy. Takes up way too much brain space.
I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to be healthy & fit & maintain approx. 130lbs & IN SHAPE.
As I age it becomes much, MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could lose 15lbs easy in 8 weeks up to 2022 ish … This is absolutely not true anymore.
While active with 🚶♀️& 🎾 it’s clear a ST 🏋️♀️🤸🏼routine was absent. Strength & balance are 💯most important now. Time to incorporate ST 🏋️♀️ 🙆♀️🤸🏼as my TRUE focus.

Yes! Still much too high, but at least moving the right direction.
02/17 - 193.4
I’m going to a friend’s this morning to knit, and she said she has treats, so I’m going to have to watch myself.
02/18 - 193.4
Oh, good. I did have some rhubarb pie yesterday at my friend’s house, and DH made rigatoni for dinner, so I expected to be up a bit. Hopefully this will hold if I behave myself today. Have a lovely Sunday!
02/19 - 194.6
Not a great weekend (pie on Sat., pizza yesterday), and here’s the result. I’ll be so glad when warmer walking weather arrives.
02/20 - 195.4
The rest of the “pizza climb” plus I went out for lunch and snacked at night and went way over my goal yesterday. We have no junk food in the house, it’s all “healthy” snacks, but of course they are not healthy in massive quantities. Why do I keep doing this?
02/21 - 194.8
I was more in control yesterday, which makes me feel better. I’m also changing my breakfasts for more protein—I stocked up on Bilinski chicken sausages and had one this morning, so I’m feeling quite virtuous.
02/22 - 194.4
I did have some buttered popcorn last night, but still kept my calories to 1484, so not horrible.

It's been a while since I've been here, but decided to focus on weight loss again and this has always been a helpful tool for me. Lost 30 pounds last spring. then gained a few of those back. Have kept up my daily walks, but need to concentrate on nutrition.

2/22 132.0 ✅all measures except not enough protein macros. Yesterday was my heavy protein day, and I was 20g short…
My problem lately has been being over on protein but under on fat. I’m okay with being under on fat because if I’m not eating it I should be burning what’s stored. I need to remember that on Keto
Carbs are a LIMIT
Protein is THE GOAL
Fat is the LEVER to feeling satisfied
Having just put that in print, I need to be mindful of my protein!3 -

2/17 132.0 Just going with the flow. Macros were right on yesterday. Giving my body a chance to adjust to the change in diet.
2/18 132.0 Rode the tourist train with DD DSIL and DGGS yesterday morning. Today is my birthday. No big plans - it’s Sunday so Great Greek. I’m going all out and getting the lamb burger and feta fries.
2/19 131.5 Add 2 glasses of wine and 6 extra family members to yesterday’s Great Greek. Went and had my nails done then stopped at Starbucks for my free birthday coffee. All the years I’ve had a Starbucks card and this is the first time I’ve taken advantage!
2/20 131.5 It’s okay
2/21 131.0 Stress continues but I didn’t give in to snacking. If we had a saltines, I’m sure I would have. Tonight is community Bingo and “dinner.” I don’t know what they’re having but I’m making pork chops between 11 and 1 to accommodate DH’s various meetings. Yesterday I didn’t even THINK about making dinner - I wasn’t eating so he had to fend for himself. I’m a terrible wife.
2/22 132.5 Last night was community bingo. I wish I had known what was for “dinner.” I don’t consider a bowl of nachos and an ice cream sandwich dinner. It’s my own fault for not having willpower in that setting. Next month is tacos (not much better) and we’ll be on a cruise. YAY! Tomorrow Golden Corral with friends. At least we’ll be eating in my OMAD window.6 -

02/22 - 152.6 - No hugs needed. It's stress, anxiety, DOMS, and insatiable hunger hunger from yesterday. My travel anxiety is higher than normal (guessing several factors which all likely stem from how last-minute this trip is) which is stressing me out in general. I'm feeling more in control food-wise today so that's a plus. Also did a nice hard workout this morning in the form of arms and shoulders strength training. Goal is to run tomorrow before running last minute errands and getting BF's grocery list together so we can go after we give blood Saturday. I realized I have to leave early Sunday to make my flight so I won't be around for the end of this round and won't return until the end of the next. Making a plan and hoping to fit in my resistance bands for working out while I'm gone in hopes of maintaining some level of momentum so it's not so challenging to get back into it once I get back home.

Previous Day's Comments02/16 - I'm still quite sore so I'm happy to have dropped this much. Workout done this morning, have a plan and path forward with a chiropractor (who also has my same injury/metal), and meals planned for next week. I need to make my grocery list but I can't go shopping until Sunday so I have time. Tomorrow I'm planning a longer run. I need to aim for 3.5 or more miles if I have any hope of making it to 6 miles by April with only 1-2 days a week I can reliably run. Feeling good about progress, though!

02/19 - A ton of bloat has dropped off now that I've avoided dairy/lactose. Today's slight increase is likely due to sodium (we had Asian for lunch and that's a normal reaction for me) and TOM is scheduled to arrive this week so there's some bloat involved. I won't be surprised if I'm even higher tomorrow due to bloat and DOMs - today was leg day at the gym. Jello legs anyone? I'm eating 80% paleo and focusing on reducing carbs (today is higher due to the heavy lifts and Friday on my log run, but every other day this week will be lower on carbs). Feeling good and hopeful!
02/20 - As expected. The dogs woke me up at 3am on the dot and that's when I weighed as I knew I wouldn't get a chance to do again. I'm very sore in the legs and feeling quite bloated - likely pre-TOM bloat as I'm still waiting on that to resolve. I discovered yesterday at the end of my workday I will have to travel next week for work. I leave Sunday (the last day of this challenge) and return Friday, landing at midnight Friday into Saturday. I have fire department training Saturday that I'll likely miss so I can sleep - I won't be home until nearly 3am Saturday assuming my flights are on time (never are). So this week I will be doing my best to pre-plan as much as I can related to travel (lunch and dinner Sunday through dinner Friday) to stay on track. The hotel and HQ office has a fitness center - will check them both out (hotel on Monday so I can go in and find out if I can even use the HQ's center since I'll likely need a sponsor. I don't have a building badge since I'm virtual and I don't think anyone on my team comes in that early to "sponsor" me so I can use it. Will find out though).
02/21 - More DOMS and bloat. My legs are really feeling it today from leg day on Monday. My chest isn't terrible but I'm sure I'll feel it more tomorrow, as I usually do feel worse on the second day. We did back today and I really pushed hard on it. Won't be surprised to see some ups before I leave simply due to DOMS. Hopefully, though, TOM bloat will start dropping off in the next day or two. Sticking fairly well to paleo and I've found some bars I can easily travel with to take for snacks if I need it. One day at a time!

👆🏻love this. I have definitely been cutting back on fat. I read somewhere that the closer you get to goal, less fat is required… So I switched from fatty protein to lower fat protein. Fatty meat & butter are 💯 my weakness! Thank God I don’t have a sweet tooth! I toggle every-other-day 109g / 129g protein. Starting to get it down!
Your 2/22 post made me LOL! MFP really needs a laugh option/icon!

I'm Crystal! Started OMAD on Feb 5th. I eat my 1 meal at dinner time, anywhere between 5:30-7 pm. Allow myself a dessert an hr later, give or take and that is it until dinner time the next day. (Aside from coffee, which I refuse to give up in the mornings). Still following my macro goals as well. Looking forward to reading everyone's stories and tips/goals! ❤️

SW RND 251: 161.8lbs
2/16: 161.8 lbs I have been struggling with hunger when skipping breakfast the last few days. After advice from quiltingjaine, I am going to try to have lunch around 11am and dinner around 6pm to see if that will work better.
2/17: 163.1 lbs I ate a lot at a party. I went in to the party thinking I would just eat a few things which turned in to eating all the things. If I could go back in time, I not even sure I would change anything. I had a great time and I am back on track today.
2/18: 163.6 lbs Almost 2 pounds up from where I started! I guess I am still gaining from the party splurge. I did have a lot of salt in my dinner so perhaps that has contributed to my gains.

Hi, I'm Charissa
Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
So here we go 2024... my motto -
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Goals this round:
- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget 🍎
- Macros - hit Protein ✅
- Water - 64oz minimum > trying hard for 80💧
- Closing my rings M-F🚶🏽
The critical rounds (last two) are over and I feel more in control after seeing the scale go down today after ticking upward and then staying there. I went up a total of 1.6 pounds over the last 2 rounds. Reinforcements: Alcohol kills weight loss and supports gains.

(I dropped off the extra 50 kcal) We’ll see if it helps. After yesterday’s debacle I am again focused and hoping the jump in weight is temporary. After calculating the journey so far. I have dropped 15.5 pounds in 75 days. That averages a bit over 2 lbs. lost per 10-day challenge, quite respectable I’d say.

PW: 177.4
- Thu 02/22: 176.5;-.9lbs
~ I weighed in a little later then normal so I’m not sure if this was an honest reading of the scale I’m starting to wonder if I will make my mini goal weight of 175 🤨 I do believe I’m walking less then usual. I will make it a point to walk 3 miles on Sat/Sun and 2 miles on MTWThF NO MATTER WHAT!

~ Post TMI: 176.5
~ Maybe I should’ve logged ahead and then maybe I would have had only one hot Italian sausage not two. I was definitely under calorie and carb but I am low on groceries and my day was filled with what I had on hand; low carb bread and sodium filled sausages and sandwich meats and cheeses. (1000+ over my sodium goal for the day)

~ Woke up on the “glass half full side” of the bed.. lol
Happy Check-point Day everyone !!
- Mon 02/19🟥177.2;-1.3lbs
~ I had my one night of drinking with my husband on Sat night. We shared two pitchers of Michelob ultra. The scale went up a bit for that reason. I quickly recovered into Sunday and drank a toooon of water to help contend with the post-drinking munchies I still ate low carb throughout the weekend and didn’t go off the rails late that night, as I normally would have. I forced myself to go to bed with a couple of Melatonin gummies. I can never sleep well when I drink too much. - Sun 02/18🟥178.5;+.4lbs
~ Ok ok.. so I did not do perfectly yesterday. But I’ll complete a report of my entire weekend when I weigh in on Monday! - Sat 02/17🟥178.1;+1.8lbs
~ I wish I would have pre-logged yesterday. Taking the rice out of the left over Home chef meal did NOT make it low carb! If I was in Ketosis I’m probably not anymore! It is a new day and the first thing I did upon opening my little eyeballs(besides putting in my contacts and brushing my teeth) was drink my 40 oz cup of water and get on the treadmill! I really don’t want to [insert in bold!!]WILL NOT!! Self-sabotage this weekend. - Fri 02/16🟩176.3;-.7lbs
~ I have been snacking on the zero sugar candies my husband gave me for Valentine’s Day… but only 4 pieces at a time and I’ll eat them with a Tbs of JIF no sugar peanut butter. It hit the spot but it is the only processed food “splurge” I’ve been having lately. So the sale made sense today! - SW: 177

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 251 (my 181st). Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going, so grateful.
Goals for this round; to lose! And to break the “always looking for something to put in my mouth” syndrome!
Good luck everyone for a successful round.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 RND 251 - Day, Weight, Comment
2/16 DNW
2/17 144.4 – so there it is the weight at the end of the family holiday, luckily not too much of a hike and something to work at. We spent yesterday at National Trust property Errdig, DGC played in the woods, climbed the trees, balanced on the fallen trees, enjoyed the tree swing and after our picnic enjoyed toasting marshmallows before we all went our separate ways to travel home. A wonderful family week; it seemed really quiet when we got home !!
2/18 143.6 – 11.22 miles walked; 36% of exercise calories eaten back. It feels good to be back in the swing!!
2/19 142.2 – 9.48 miles walked; 10% exercise calories eaten back.
2/20 142.2 – 7.75 miles walked; 55% of exercise calories eaten back.
2/21 142.6 - 8.67 miles walked, got out to walk early before meeting up with sisters for lunch and a spot of leisurely mooching around Lichfield; 70% of exercise calories eaten back.
2/22 142.6 – 9.44 miles walked (during heavy drizzle ☹), all exercise calories eaten back.
2/23 143 – no structured walking, childminding little DGS hence over on calories.

I’ve been slowly gaining 10lbs a year over the last few years. This challenge helped me stay focused in the past.
2/16- 194.4
2/17- 194.4
2/18- 194.8
2/19- 195.4
2/20- 194.4
2/21- 194.8
2/22- 195.2
2/23- 194.6 worked hard yesterday to stop the climb. I am feeling really good about this round. Ending on Sunday might not be the prettiest number after Saturday dinner with friends. I am prepping myself for both making good weekend food choices and treating myself with grace for being a hedonist.8
