    Success/struggles: Last week was fun but no so good for healthy living. I did have several social get togethers which I love but it meant not eating on plan, not exercising as usual or drinking water, etc. I'd do it again as long it isn't all the time. Socializing is important too and I love the people I was with.

    Successes of the week:
    Family visiting, so had some ‘social meals’ that I don’t usually eat (breakfasts, lunches), and a bit more alcohol, but amazingly finished the week still bang on target weight. Completed week 3 of running program, feeling very happy about that.

    Struggles of the week:
    Listened to a craving and bought a bag of my favourite crisps fully intending to share… but ended up eating the whole 150g myself. My total calorie intake that day wasn’t horrendous, but my macros suffered (little protein and too much salt/fat).

    Successes/struggles:

    Oops! Overshot a bit, I don’t need to be less than 48kg. Not sure why the sudden drop by a kg this last week. However, I’m not underweight (BMI 20.5) and I have holidays coming up.
    In the meantime it should be easy enough to stop the downward trend.

    Height: 5'8"

    Weight Loss Goal: 160#

    Maintenance Weight Range Goal: 155-160#

    Note: Still on a slightly downward weight loss trend but that's better than gaining wt IMO & is easily rectified if it continues. <150# would be my "red line" for taking corrective action.

    Successes/struggles of the week: Catching up on a couple of weeks. Although I got back down into the upper end of my range from mid-late June, I went overboard the past couple of weeks as I had some different celebrations/events, so my weight has been up again. The weather around here has been oppressively hot the past couple of weeks, which also doesn't help as I tend to retain water weight when it's hot out (and it's also harder to get in long walks outside when it's this hot). On the positive side, with a higher weight, I've been progressing more with my strength training workouts, so there's a trade-off there.

    Note: So far so good. Maintaining at around 155 which is better IMO than trying to do it at 160 because if my weight creeps up, it's possible to correct that before I go over 160 which is currently my red line.

    Unlike in the past, I'm continuing to record what I eat & weigh myself daily on MPF during maintenance, which I think is absolutely necessary to stay on top of it.

    My failure to do so is why I gained weight 3x's in the past & I don't want to do that again. Famous last words but I hope to stick by them. ;)

    Success of the week: Finally stopped a slow gain from May and June. I was pretty much at my goal weight and "something happened." Back after it and heading back. I had a couple work days on the river, a couple rest days from last week's adventures, and some days getting chores done. I am finally back into my maintenance range after popping up out of it for nearly four weeks.

    Struggle of the week: I picked up a cold. At least testing a few days apart came back negative for COVID, and I'm already on the mend.

    Success of the week: I had a fairly active week with three days of invasive aquatic plant surveys, two of which also included a camping trip. I had a busy day of getting ready for that two-day trip, and I'm still cleaning my raft and gear from it.

    Struggle of the week: Sill fighting a cold. Still at the ceiling of my maintenance weight. I reckon that's still OK.

    Continuation of log from June 2024 for personal accountability:

    Gender: Male
    Age 73
    Height: 5'8"

    Weight Loss Goal: 160#

    Start Date/Wt: 04/02/2024 - 174.5#
    End Date;Wt: 05/28/2024 - 159.8#

    Maintenance Weight Range Goal: 155-160#

    Weight as of the week ending::

    06/03/2024: 158.3# -- Range: 157.9-159.8
    06/10/2024: 156.6# -- Range: 156.6-158.9
    06/17/2024: 155.9# -- Range: 155.6-157.3
    06/24/2024: 156.5# -- Range: 155.1-157.4

    07/01;2024: 155.8# -- Range: 155.6-157.9
    07/08/2024: 154.6# -- Range: 154.0-155.9
    07/15/2024: 154.5# -- Range: 153.8-155.5
    07/22/2024: 154.5# -- Range: 153.4-156.3
    07/29/2024: 154.8# -- Range: 153.0-155.6

    Note: Still a lot of day to day variation but seem to always end the week where I'd like just below 155. Just afraid if I let weight creep back up to 160 that I won't be able to control my wt as I'm doing now.

    So, maintaining at or just below155 is fine w/me.
