4/20 185.8 it appears that I did not actually hit post reply yesterday after writing. Oh well, my thoughts and responses are lost to the ether (where they probably belong).
My best guess for this upswing is 100% hormonal water retention. Unexpected and not based on the calendar. After a lifetime of TOM bring very regular I’m entering a new phase in life that is slightly irregular. Ugh I’m hoping I get through this without too much discomfort (physically and emotionally).
I think my DH is hoping he survives this too! Based on my reaction to his leaving the sponge in the bottom of the sink yesterday, his life is definitely in more danger then mine!

4/16 178.0 That was a pretty good drop since yesterday, so I won’t be surprised with a bounce tomorrow, if there is one. Had a great walk in the neighborhood last night. The weather has been picture perfect the last few days! Food has been on track now for quite some time. I’m craving protein at night recently but so far I am resisting once I’m done for the day. I’m happy with the macro levels I am currently achieving. We are moving Dad into Assisted Living next Wednesday, so I'm having trouble shutting my brain down at night. Only getting about 5 hours of sleep these days and that's after I get up and finally take a nerve pill. I know Assisted Living's the right thing to do, and he seems to be ok with it, but I just worry.
4/17 178.4 Did a yoga session right before bed and that did seem to help me get to sleep. Today I need to get in a good walk.
4/18 178.4 No real exercise today, but some yoga before bed to help me sleep.
4/19 178.2 Got in a long walk after dinner and it felt great to get in some real mileage. I did find out that Medicare will pay for a gym membership through the Silver Sneakers program, so I may give that a try once it kicks in and I have a little more time for myself. They have water aerobics and a circuit training for us OAPs (LOL) that maybe my knees can handle. Plus, of course, you have access to everything else there. I used to enjoy my gym before Covid. We'll see. I gave in and had a chocolate milkshake with my granddaughter and my dad, so yesterday was my highest carb day since starting this. I guess we will find out if my walk and only eating salad afterwards will prevent a bounce.
4/20 177.6 I’ve increased the distance of my walks and am really enjoying that after dinner. Hubby starts out with me most of the time and then I finish after he goes back to the house. But now I'm going a lot further than I was before. I am sleeping better, so I’m hoping to be able to keep this going.

Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed.

And so it begins again. A fresh start for everyone.
I am very pleased with this morning’s scale reading. Last night I helped in the kitchen at church for an event. When I “filled” my plate afterward to sit and eat with the other helpers I erred on the side of excess. Still managed to stay under my budget thanks to exercise calories eaten back. I will do that within reason, but I try not to eat them all back due to possible errors in logging.
The true bump may come tomorrow, so I will be careful today.
4/17: 219.8
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
This morning our local chamber of commerce has its annual “forecast breakfast.” All the taxing bodies will go to the podium and give an update on what’s happening at their end of the world. Village, School District, Library District (I am on the elected board), Park District, Police & Fire. It is always interesting. My former firm has done (or is doing) design work for all of them. The highlight is pumpkin pancakes. This should be my big meal of my day.
This new decade of pounds I am in has a mild inspirational effect. I know I am too close to the 220’s to get too happy because there WILL be a bump up. (pumpkin pancakes for example) But five days in a row under it is meaningful.
Striving for the next decade.
By the way, I know “decade” is the wrong word. Can’t think of anything better this morning. Any ideas?
4/18: 219.4
/logged; exercised; 64 oz water/
Happiness with this. As it turns out I CAN enjoy a pancake without falling off the wagon and having ten.
4/19: 219.6
/logged; no exercise really; 70 oz water/
Well this is unbelievable. Seven days in a row on 219.x. Some may say I am stuck in a rut, but I say bring it on after so many weeks putzing around in the mid 220’s. And I was a bad boy yesterday.
4/15: 219.4
Starting weight on day before this round.
4/20: 221
/logged; exercised; 81 oz water/
Remember when I said I was a bad boy yesterday? The chickens came home to roost this morning. Especially after the “cavalcade of salty foods” I ate yesterday. That’s right, I called it a cavalcade. I could have used procession, parade or march. It was quite a kitten show. (I typed the word kitten to save MFP the trouble.)
Seeking a feeling of hunger today. Finding it then denying it will be my formula for success just for today.

WOE & Health Journey
****************************
WOE since 7/2023: MAD: (Mostly Animal Diet) Whole Foods. No processed foods. Animal-based proteins: EGGS, Beef, pork, chicken, seafood, venison and grass-fed whey protein. I count macros & kcals - always will. (Since portion control is my issue). Keto is high-fat but I’m now leaner animal proteins with lower fat than Keto. I thought I was “KETOVORE” but I’ve been told I am “MAD”.
I had paralyzing IBS for 20+ years. My mother was diagnosed with celiac’s disease in her 50’s. Following her lead, I eliminated wheat, oat, barley, and rye in 2015 …. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional high protein Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive system… I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for several days… I do enjoy berries, lemons, limes. Avocados are my weakness. Enjoy a piece(s) of dark chocolate on occasion. Generally, I eat btw noon and 6 pm. (IF18/6). Alcohol? Used to be somewhat of a weekend social drinker and would enjoy a good martini/scotch or Paloma at home while cooking dinner. NO MORE. Root of many evils. Primarily, the destruction of will power and the enemy of optimal choices. I’d rather journey toward my best-self. I haven’t given up alcohol completely, but I enjoy it sparingly on special occasions. This is me. I finally feel terrific.

APRIL 1st SW: 198.2 | EW: 000.0
Since starting ...January 1st - April 1st, I've lost 17 pounds and a total of 20.8 inches from 11 areas. 🥳 Thrilled to see my hard work reversing prediabetes and years of physical damage. Getting leaner and stronger and chair dancing proud of myself about it!! 57 and hormonal, it's taken longer than expected and a much rougher road than my youth.
Reaching onederland (March 13th) meant the end of 10+ years and up to 80 pounds!! gained and relost too many times to count. Determined not to self-sabotage ... have to ask: now what? Weight was my focus so long, I need a new target!! If I should lose an additional 8% body fat to reach the "standard" for my age, height and sex ~ and up to 15% to reach excellent ~ that's @ least another 8-15 months of work before I can begin to relax and think maintenance.
I've been eating @ a 200-400 calorie deficit (90-95% of the time) and Intermittent Fasting 18-22 hrs (75-85%). It's worked well, so trying to take it up a notch by lowering carbs, changing eating window to earlier in the day, breaking fast differently, and continuing to look for new ways to increase step count and add more strength in April.7 -

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. Trying to get in the 60's by my son's wedding at the end of April..

RND 257 So far in April, I've met my goals every day along with daily exercise. I aim to finish off April with no "cheat days"!4/16 172 Light eating day yesterday, I just didn't have much of an appetite. Looking at the dates of this round reminded me that my youngest boy's birthday is next week (the 24th). He'll be 6. He is the happiest and sweetest little boy and he brings such joy to everyone ❤️.4/18 170.2 Another good day yesterday. Feels good to set goals and actually stick with them. I set another goal for myself this month also to not bite or pick at my fingernails. (I know it sounds gross) Just something I've been doing since I was a little girl. Bad bad habit that I've never been able to break. Although my nails still aren't long, I have more nails now than I ever have and I can actually paint them 😀.
4/17 170.2 I was waiting for a drop. I could tell my body has been holding on to water. Also have barely had an appetite for 2 days, so I was a good bit under on calories both days (not complaining about that 🤪). Weight will probably go up a little when I'm eating back to normal.
4/19 171.5 Weighed myself 2 hours early this morning before I really got moving around. Seems like I weigh a little more when I first wake up. Yesterday was another good day with all goals met.
4/20 170.9 Low calorie day yesterday. Not much planned this weekend which is nice to have a break.

4/16 152.6 Ate out for lunch and dinner, went about 200 over calories goal and didn't eat as many veggies as I prefer. Will make a meal plan for the week today and include more veggies.
4/17 151.8 stayed within calories, ate more vegetables, still need to work on more water 💦, did not make a meal plan for the week so doing that this morning
4/18 152.2 I feel better with no dairy and gluten. I’ve been on a modified bed rest for 3 weeks due to various issues in the L4-L5-S1 of my spine, waiting to see specialists. A friend brought dinner over and I ate gluten and dairy, weight and inflammation are up. No surprise.
4/19 151.2 A more normal eating day yesterday, still need to keep working on getting all my water 💦 in
4/20 152.4
Went to dinner with friends and ate a way larger dinner with dessert than I am used to later at night. Was over calories by 300.

4/16 134.0 Finally dropped a bit and DH set up dinner date at Golden Corral 🤦♀️🤦♀️ I have a plan since we are going later so friends can get butterfly shrimp. I will get salad and steak and see what good veggies they have. I can do this! OY! This morning has been a mess. Now to finish reading today’s posts.
4/17 136.5 I only ate one meal yesterday. That was at GC. I really didn’t eat a lot of food but it was high carb-breaded shrimp and Nashville Chicken Bites, sugar free vanilla cake and the blueberry filling from a slice of SF blueberry pie, at a 2” square of real crust from “apple cobbler.” I also drank a lot of water after we got home. I feel bloated-something I don’t experience often. Optometrist today so I can replace the glasses that broke when I fell in Ensenada. Tonight is community bingo with pizza for dinner.🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
4/18 138.5 The thick crust pizza was cold be the time it was served so I couldn’t even pry the toppings lose to throw the crust away.

04/18 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
04/19 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) So I am relieved to say that I’ve “passed the test” so far. Doctor said if there was a 2% or better change in the mammogram findings I would have to come back for a biopsy. I was 1.4% so I’m in the clear for now. However, they will do another diagnostic mammogram (not a screening mammogram) again in 6 months to continue to monitor. I am so completely grateful and feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me. Except in the hip area. They feel squishy and more “bloated”. A few more days of no weighing for me as I let all the travels melt off me. Oh, wouldn’t it be nice if it were that easy? Thanks again everyone for your kind words of encouragement and your prayers.
04/20 -DNW- (Trend weightDNW)I babysat yesterday. It was a teacher day so there was no school. My meals were okay for the day but my night time snacks were a bit questionable. I need to start incorporating some exercise back in without too much stress on my foot. I’ll work on that today. I got a little over 6 hours of sleep last night which is way above my norm although I always have frequent bathroom trips. That’s one of the most frustrating part of diabetes. However, I still feel rested and ready to have a good day. We had snow this morning. It’s bleak and cold but with no workers here and (I presume) no babysitting today, it is peaceful and quiet.

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 257 (my 187th). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something. I start this round a year older (hopefully wiser ?) Officially an OAP! How can that be I can’t possibly be that old – I feel much much younger 😊.
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 WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)

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 two parents, 87(mother), 85(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 (father has since passed and I am DPOA, Personal representative AKA executor, trustee, and oversee the majority of my mother’s care). 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!

Day/Weight/Comment
4/16 – 129.0 What the heck?!!!!! I thought my scale was broken. Yes, yesterday I was off track, but 3 lbs is physically impossible. We’ll see how it settles out over the next couple of days. Hubby had the same issue this morning. Neither of us are happy!
4/17 – 128.0
4/18 – 127.4 Having real trouble keeping on track and making good decisions. Variety of reasons 1) highly distracted 2) trying to empty refrigerator, freezer and shelves before heading north in a week. But of course, that does not do hand-in-hand well with my decision to by multiple boxes of Fat Boy Jr Ice cream sandwiches……
4/19 – 127.2 (renpho 127.2) starting to get ready for travel by getting my comparative numbers between home and travel scales.
4/20 – 127.0 (renpho 127.4) was totally off the rails yesterday. Honestly, just going to try and not do damage until I get back up North. Eight days until I pull in back at home.

@roscoe1998 I am so proud of you for losing those 15 lbs before the wedding. You should be proud of yourself, too. I know you will feel wonderful and I'm sure you have a lovely Mother of the Bride dress. Enjoy all the special moments.6

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 257 (my 187th). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something. I start this round a year older (hopefully wiser ?) Officially an OAP! How can that be I can’t possibly be that old – I feel much much younger 😊.
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.

4/17 140.6 – (trend 141.1) Thank you for the lovely birthday wishes, had a wonderful day. DH brought me a coffee in bed, got up to open my pressies & cards, then he went off to work. Relaxing manicure and went on to meet sisters for lunch, then a garden centre; bought plants! Kept under calories until DH surprised me with a birthday cake in the evening, only had small piece and weighed it, took me over by 122. 7.48 miles walked.
4/18 141.4 - (trend 141.1) 9.94 miles walked, just under 60% exercise calories eaten back.

4/21 185.2 working hard to get this bump down. I can physically feel the ache of water retention in my muscles and joints. I know that drinking water and movement will help.
It’s Sunday morning obstacle course run with my friends! Then meeting with some gardening clients followed by an afternoon at my friends goat farm.
I volunteer with a developmentally disabled teenager, once or twice a week we do activities in the community. It can be a simple walk or like today, a fun day at a goat farm.
Also DH put the boat in the water yesterday so I know I will be asked to go on a chilly evening ride on the Hudson. I know the boat will need a good wipe down after winter storage so I’m hoping I can get that started.
Or as I like to call it “a nice relaxing Sunday”.8 -

Round 257 Posts
This is my posting format….
Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed.
/ Logged Food - yesterday; Exercise – yesterday; water - yesterday / Comment
Previous posts:
4/16: 219.8
/logged; exercised; 80 oz water/
And so it begins again. A fresh start for everyone.
I am very pleased with this morning’s scale reading. Last night I helped in the kitchen at church for an event. When I “filled” my plate afterward to sit and eat with the other helpers I erred on the side of excess. Still managed to stay under my budget thanks to exercise calories eaten back. I will do that within reason, but I try not to eat them all back due to possible errors in logging.
The true bump may come tomorrow, so I will be careful today.
4/17: 219.8
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
This morning our local chamber of commerce has its annual “forecast breakfast.” All the taxing bodies will go to the podium and give an update on what’s happening at their end of the world. Village, School District, Library District (I am on the elected board), Park District, Police & Fire. It is always interesting. My former firm has done (or is doing) design work for all of them. The highlight is pumpkin pancakes. This should be my big meal of my day.
This new decade of pounds I am in has a mild inspirational effect. I know I am too close to the 220’s to get too happy because there WILL be a bump up. (pumpkin pancakes for example) But five days in a row under it is meaningful.
Striving for the next decade.
By the way, I know “decade” is the wrong word. Can’t think of anything better this morning. Any ideas?
4/18: 219.4
/logged; exercised; 64 oz water/
Happiness with this. As it turns out I CAN enjoy a pancake without falling off the wagon and having ten.
4/19: 219.6
/logged; no exercise really; 70 oz water/
Well this is unbelievable. Seven days in a row on 219.x. Some may say I am stuck in a rut, but I say bring it on after so many weeks putzing around in the mid 220’s. And I was a bad boy yesterday.
4/20: 221
/logged; exercised; 81 oz water/
Remember when I said I was a bad boy yesterday? The chickens came home to roost this morning. Especially after the “cavalcade of salty foods” I ate yesterday. That’s right, I called it a cavalcade. I could have used procession, parade or march. It was quite a kitten show. (I typed the word kitten to save MFP the trouble.)
Seeking a feeling of hunger today. Finding it then denying it will be my formula for success just for today.
4/15: 219.4
Starting weight on day before this round.
4/21: 222.4
/not logged; exercised; 80 oz water/
Drat! I sought hunger and did not deny it at the wedding last night. No drinking so I’ve got that going for me, but cake was awesome after a buffet of comfort food.
So my ten-day average crept above 220. Still time for redemption. Still seeking hunger.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.6 -
