I think she got into the habit when DGS was small with diaper bag maybe (to hold his snacks?) I'm not sure, but she is so tiny that the bags are bigger than her! No, I don't need her pulling stuff out and offering it to me. Sometimes I'm strong and say no to her fancy chocolates. "No thanks, I have some dark cacao. I'll have a square of it later after dinner". etc. But when I'm going through these weak times, its rough. Time for another talk! I hate to deflate her, but I don't need to be INFLATED with calories and carbs!
@deepwoodslady Ok, I’m letting my PO’d side loose here, and you may not like what I say, but here goes…. I have no idea why your daughter has to bring totes full of food to your house (or everywhere), or why she’s there half the week, but you need to be tough and direct if the presence of that food overwhelms you, especially if she insists on offering you foods that endanger your health. It’s like bringing booze to a recovering alcoholic. Tell her not to bring foods you can’t eat into your home—they are poison to you. Your home should be your safe place. She is making it unsafe both physically and emotionally. Establish boundaries and insist she respect them. She’s an adult and needs to start acting like a responsible one.
@Sheilaboneham I learned a new acronym today from Jaine. FUBAR. I agree, this is definitely what it is.2 -

07/25 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/26 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/27 -189.4- (Trend weight 189.2) Still trying to lose the bulk and bloat from travel. I started back on the water pill on orders of the cardiologist for a one week experiment. Daily this time instead of every-other-day. Lots of water shed yesterday until about 3:00 then nothing. I assume my weight was even higher before shedding. Today I am making a crock pot chicken parmesan dinner which is loaded with pasta. I will make today an OMAD day, sticking to very low carb liquids during the day (broth, black coffee, water) to offset the damage although I know I will probably eat some approved snacks later tonight. It’s an easy meal for the whole group and something I’ve been craving. I’m trying to show myself that I can have the things I crave if I fit it into my day properly and eat in the correct portions. On keto I was eating less than 20 carbs per day. Now I am keeping it at under 100 which makes it totally different than before. This allows so many more foods and now that I can eat them at a higher level (carbs), I need to learn to control it. Much different than avoiding it altogether. Tweaking, Tweaking…..
07/28 -189.2- (Trend weight 189.5) I’ll be traveling a couple of hours each way tomorrow for a new doctor. A foot specialist of some kind. Then next month I will be sent for some painful foot testing and also another new doctor (neurologist) who will also try to figure out my feet issue which is likely diabetic neuropathy IMHO. Lunch will be out tomorrow which never helps the cause. Usually I am safe though when I’m back at home, but not lately. I’ve got to get my home habits back in order and instill peace again with my kitchen because right now it is a battlefield! I’m leaving early tomorrow so I’ll try to get an early weight on the scale and post later. However, I’ll likely skip Tuesday’s weigh-in after the travel. I’m usually filled with temporary bloat that is a bit meaningless in the big picture. I’ll need a day to let things settle in so that the real Donna can please stand up.

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 267 (my 197th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; (same as last few rounds & hoping committed to achieve them this time!! – Again!!)
• First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
• to get to/stay under 139 pounds,
• to lose!
I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.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.*****

07/25 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/26 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/27 -189.4- (Trend weight 189.2) Still trying to lose the bulk and bloat from travel. I started back on the water pill on orders of the cardiologist for a one week experiment. Daily this time instead of every-other-day. Lots of water shed yesterday until about 3:00 then nothing. I assume my weight was even higher before shedding. Today I am making a crock pot chicken parmesan dinner which is loaded with pasta. I will make today an OMAD day, sticking to very low carb liquids during the day (broth, black coffee, water) to offset the damage although I know I will probably eat some approved snacks later tonight. It’s an easy meal for the whole group and something I’ve been craving. I’m trying to show myself that I can have the things I crave if I fit it into my day properly and eat in the correct portions. On keto I was eating less than 20 carbs per day. Now I am keeping it at under 100 which makes it totally different than before. This allows so many more foods and now that I can eat them at a higher level (carbs), I need to learn to control it. Much different than avoiding it altogether. Tweaking, Tweaking…..
07/28 -189.2- (Trend weight 189.5) I’ll be traveling a couple of hours each way tomorrow for a new doctor. A foot specialist of some kind. Then next month I will be sent for some painful foot testing and also another new doctor (neurologist) who will also try to figure out my feet issue which is likely diabetic neuropathy IMHO. Lunch will be out tomorrow which never helps the cause. Usually I am safe though when I’m back at home, but not lately. I’ve got to get my home habits back in order and instill peace again with my kitchen because right now it is a battlefield! I’m leaving early tomorrow so I’ll try to get an early weight on the scale and post later. However, I’ll likely skip Tuesday’s weigh-in after the travel. I’m usually filled with temporary bloat that is a bit meaningless in the big picture. I’ll need a day to let things settle in so that the real Donna can please stand up.

@Chapter_3 🤣 but your eggs are shaped like a rubber ducky so the poultry theme is there!
Also that looks delicious. The addition of basil to the yogurt- I’m loving that.

7/29- 174.8 it never comes down quite as fast as it goes up. I didn’t eat any of the right things yesterday but I did eat less. I’m not sure why I can’t just throw away the potato chips instead of eating a handful every time I go into the kitchen.
I hope typing that sentence motivates me to just toss them. I can already hear DH “what happened to the chips??” Ugh he has been eating absolutely TERRIBLE for a few weeks now and I literally get anxiety when I see the remnants of his late night snacks or watch him polish off an entire can of nuts while making dinner. I’ve made some gentle statements but I’m gearing up for a serious conversation. He is very capable of turning this around but just as good at blaming everything but the food he is shoveling into his pie hole.7 -

7/25 169.4 Got in an outdoor walk between rain showers yesterday. The temperatures felt amazing all day, and we sure did need the rain!
7/26 168 Walked between showers yesterday and also got in an exercise bike workout during the rain with DGD on her own exercise bike. We had so much fun together with that! It’ll be good for both of us because she has our genetic tendency to hold weight.
7/27 168.8 Guess that’s the rebound after a pound and a half loss, because there’s no other explanation for it. It happens. Almost always. It’s fine. Was more active yesterday in activities with DGD and then got in a good walk in the evening too. Good day!
7/28 168.2 Another good day. Spent the afternoon with Dad here and made him one of Mom’s favorite recipes, her spaghetti, but ate well all day and got in a long walk in the evening. I was thinking just now that I am now about 4 lbs less than when I was the night I got the call that Dad had fallen and broken his hip. Everything about my life was changed at that moment, but I didn't know it yet. Ended up retiring to care for him here in my home until this past April, and lost total control of my own body, blowing up like a balloon to the high of 191. It feels so good to have regained control of what I eat and how I move and to be back closer to a healthy weight. I feel sure I can reach my goal weight now and will probably lower it to about 145. Feeling good! I am thankful for this group and the support and accountability each of you provides.
7/29 167.8 Had movie theater popcorn for dinner last night, so I expected a sodium bump. It’ll probably come tomorrow. But for now, I’ll take this!

Waiting for this round to start so I could join back in...Traveled last week for work and personal. So blessed to find a place to live in Austin now back home preparing to move. The people who offered to buy my house have become nightmares, long story, but everyday seems to be a new chapter of a horror novel- it's not that bad. But the stress is getting to me, little time to exercise but I am squeezing in my pickleball.
RSW: 120.2
RGW: 118.anything
GW 115
7/25:120.2 - I feel I cheat - waiting several days for the challenge to start I cannot help to be mindful of what I am eating and make better choices. I did play Hot Pickleball (similar to Hot Yoga, the warehouse is not air-conditioned) last night. Got up an hour earlier today and have been hauling things out to the curb (this should count for exercise) for trash day. First day in several I did not wake up with a headache, been so stressed - but prayed to God and he answered and resolved what seemed an overwhelming obstacle so I am sure letting go and trusting has released some of the tension I was carrying in my shoulders.
7/26: 119.8- Funny, I was mindful until yesterday - then careless yesterday and I will pay the price tomorrow...Had little time for dinner and found a TJ mandarin chicken- nothing is healthy there! But quickly made it and used half the sauce. I know I will be bloated tomorrow- I am going to repeat and repeat that so I have no reason to be upset. Played pickleball last night- Got to Sam's club right before it closed and they had moving boxes- Yeah! Slept well last night, feel so much better today.
7/27: 120.6 Mentally expected bloat-still psychologically challenging.
7/28: 120.0 So overwhelmed with the prospect of moving I guess forgot to log on yesterday. Am so overwhelmed figuring out what stays or goes: garage sale, donate, trash... I am what appears to be productive, trash and recycle bin full ( Trash day Thursday), Trunk of car full to donate and garage full of stuff I ant to sell. They I bebopping all around - no plan.Did not play pickleball yesterday, sad, I needed to focus on house- Good news I do think I finally finished shredding all -previously ours- but seems to have become my responsibility 30 years of paperwork. I ran his practice in our previous location one of the reason we had so much paperwork and I may have a slight hoarder problem- but not anymore. i did do body pump last night. I think I am accepting the next 5 weeks need to be action oriented to getting moved. When I get to Austin I can re-establish my fitness habits, I just have immense guilt if not dealing with the move. Buyers have backed down- probably because I expressed I was very happy if move fell through. But are adamant out of house Sept 1. Hoping to do Body Flow today and post one item on Facebook Marketplace which seems incredibly intimidating to me.
7/29: 119.6 I had an 8 week hiatus period with my Invisalign which ended last Tuesday. This first of the next set of 20 has been very similar to the beginning, my teeth have been sore and taking off and putting on retainers has been difficult. It is like enforced IF - maybe not that, but it has eliminated snacking for me for now. Sunday- packed my first box, went to church, and worked on purging my bathroom and my daughter's room. I did set my Apple watch to other, I was going up and down stairs l really felt I was getting a workout. Sadly still intimidated by Face Book marketplace- my goal again today.

I’m a serial dieter/gainer whose weight has varied by 50 lbs over the years; I’m working to change my relationship with food. I joined this group in 12/23 at 147, lost 22 lbs and reached my goal in 4/24. I’m now working to understand my patterns so I know where my pitfalls are. My goal is to remain within the same 3-4 lb range for good!

My 37th round and will celebrate ONE YEAR of this challenge on 7/31! I’ll be crunched for time over the next few days because of family and stuff that rarely happens. Won’t be including my history, “July Level up” etc. until later this challenge (probably this weekend). I do plan to evaluate my year and create new aspirations moving forward. I’ll re-read my journal. I’m glad that 7/31 is my Anniversary and 8/1 is another FRESH NEW START. I have learned that each 10-day challenge is not a simple roll-over from the previous unless there is a conscious decision to make it one. After all, this is a 10-day challenge! It’s the opportunity to tweak the previous 10 days and re-commit to forming new habits. I’m really excited and thankful! Also, I am a totally 💯 different person than I was a year ago. If you would have asked me one year ago if I would do this …. Every 10 days… for one entire year, I honestly would have said no way would I do this for one whole year!!! But now, I 💯 would do it all over again! I never missed a day, I never stopped working on “Me”…. I’ve learned more than I can imagine… So for those just starting…… One day at a time, for 10-days WORKS! Good luck to all! And thanks for being REAL! I learn from EACH POST!
7/26 ✅July Level Up but no reading or journal. P:E 1.4:1 Pg 125. Good day. Ate salad for first time in a year and won’t ever again. Leafy greens are my enemy. 🎾🏋️♀️. Family leaving today.
7/27 ✅July Level Up however still no reading or journal but now that family left late yesterday, will get fully back on track. P:E 1.2:1 Pg 120. 🚶♀️10k
⚖️ The scale reflects four days of irregular schedule and total discombobulation. I give myself a B+ in nutrition. Looking forward to getting back in the groove!
I will do at least one thing that challenges me big-time today. Step out of comfort zone. I’ll get a taste of what’s in my realm of capability…. Becoming #HSF
7/28 ✅July Level Up! 💯
P:E 3:1 Pg 166. 🚶♀️10k 🎾🏋️♀️💤
Positive day! Stepped out of my comfort zone with 20 lb weights. Great ST work out!
Protein too high. Two eggs before tennis, 8 Oz boiled shrimp @noon, protein shake mid-afternoon, and a tomahawk pork chop @6pm… All Under 1200 kcals…. I could’ve skipped the shake in the afternoon but forgot to log it and then big surprise last night! Will track track better today.
Slept like a rock last night… thankful! Almost back in the groove! #HSF

Sleeping well - another 8 hr night! … . Protein still too high… ST rest day - calories on target. I noticed I didn’t post the calories for the breakfast I posted — 296 kcals. The best part! Under 300.
Will be active today and stay true to July Level up! Looking forward to a great week ahead!

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 267 (my 197th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; (same as last few rounds & hoping committed to achieve them this time!! – Again!!)
• First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
• to get to/stay under 139 pounds,
• to lose!
I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.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.*****

07/25 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/26 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/27 -189.4- (Trend weight 189.2)
07/28 -189.2- (Trend weight 189.5) I’ll be traveling a couple of hours each way tomorrow for a new doctor. A foot specialist of some kind. Then next month I will be sent for some painful foot testing and also another new doctor (neurologist) who will also try to figure out my feet issue which is likely diabetic neuropathy IMHO. Lunch will be out tomorrow which never helps the cause. Usually I am safe though when I’m back at home, but not lately. I’ve got to get my home habits back in order and instill peace again with my kitchen because right now it is a battlefield! I’m leaving early tomorrow so I’ll try to get an early weight on the scale and post later. However, I’ll likely skip Tuesday’s weigh-in after the travel. I’m usually filled with temporary bloat that is a bit meaningless in the big picture. I’ll need a day to let things settle in so that the real Donna can please stand up.
07/29 -189.4- (Trend weight189.7) Very early weigh-in this morning. I’m off to see the specialist this morning which will be a bit of a trip. I had leftover pasta for dinner so I’m not surprised to see a bit of an increase on the scale. I’ll be freezing the rest. I’m getting a little tired of these medical appointments. I have even more in August. However, with Michigan weather being typically bad in the winter, I do try to pound out all appointments and address all issues when the weather is warmer and roads are good but it’s so tiring going through it every year. I plan to get a little shopping in today while out of town so I should get plenty of steps in.

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 two grandsons. 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
7/25 – 133.4 yesterday day and dinner went off without a hitch. After dinner was good, when about 9 pm came and oh man was it challenging. Anyhow, I resisted and got through. Completed 5 days eating on track. Exercise still not happening. I won’t bore you with the excuses.
7/26 – 134.0 Uptick. I know that this is not due to calories eaten and has to be part of those small ebbs and flows that just happen. Yes, yesterday I did allow myself to eat something at 9 PM, BUT it was selected weighed and tracked, so I am OK with that. Even with those extra calories would not have exceeded my caloric needs for the day. Looks like I have made it through 7 days of thoughtful eating. I am under 135.0, which was looking like the new norm. Trying for 130 max by end of round 268.
7/27 – 134.2 glad for tracking. I am ok with scale as I am trusting the accuracy of my tracking. This morning, fingers were stiff from packaged rice pilaf last night, and digestive system is not up to par. I am expecting it to shake out over the next few days. Tonight I am facing going out to dinner, so the sodium issue will repeat itself. I have looked at the menu and am pre-tracking my dinner. I am going to do my usual trick of ordering a nice appetizer as my entrée. I find that to be a happy compromise. I get a portion controlled delicious meal with none of the additional calories from the side dishes.
7/28 – 134.4 Ok, so last night went not quite as planned. I ordered an actual entrée and ate the whole thing. I did not eat the served bread and oil and drank only half a glass of wine. Not perfect, but good enough. I did track everything when I got home. Yes, I was over, but nominally and was honest with myself. I accept that.
Today is going to be another tricky day, and actually more difficult. DS is having us over for a cookout with GF’s parents. So there is that challenging situation of not eating food made by other gracious hosts. I think my approach is going to be to just serve myself an appropriate portion – once. This get together is mid-day, so I should be able to tailor my evening calories to compensate the best I can.
7/29 – 134.4 Mildly disappointed. I actually did amazingly well at DS’s get together. I tracked after and my best estimate had me hundreds of calories under my target, so likely not OVER. Anyhow, moving forward today with planning and tracking. My feeling is that things will shake out and whatever I am in two days, is likely legit, good or bad.
