    OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016.) I was actually at 250 in 2011 or so…
    OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
    Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

    Goals for this round:

    1. Log my food daily; try to eat cleaner and work on portion control… really try this time.
    2. Daily exercise; at least some movement…
    3. Drink 90 oz. water.
    4. Do the first three goals.


    Round 268 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:


    8/4: 221.0
    /tracked most of it; very little exercise; 70 oz water/
    First full day back from a trip. Ate better, but my main exercise was pushing buttons on the TV remote watching Olympic stuff. I get totally absorbed in the hopes and dreams part of it, with the follow-on resulting excellence. Why can’t I do that? 😊


    8/5: 220.0
    /logged it all; exercised little; 80 oz water/
    Travel pounds sluffing off, even with a vast card failure yesterday. Can I keep it going? ( not with carb failure and no exercise!)

    8/6: 220.4
    /logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
    Go figure. Bump up = catch up.

    Prayers for the hard things I read about here in the last 24 hours of posts.



    8/7: 219.8

    8/8: 218.2
    /logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
    Very busy yesterday so I am logging two days today. Had a suspicious something biopsied on my nose yesterday. Results in a week. Another busy day today.

    8/9: 218.0
    8/10: 218.0
    8/11: 219.2
    8/12: 219.2
    /?; ?; ?/
    Catching up again! Doing a bad job of tracking it all. Many things want my attention these days. It’s a miracle the scale isn’t blowing up and sounding off like a cuckoo clock when I step on it.



    8/3: 221.6
    SW on day before this round.




    8/13: 217.4
    /no; NO and ?/
    This is quite a drop, probably because of yesterday’s turn of events… I bent over to put away my breakfast dishes and out of nowhere tweaked my back. It hurt so bad it dropped me to my knees. I spent the rest of the day in bed icing it, or sitting like a statue. DW waited on me hand and foot. Still in a lot of pain this morning.

    I have had a bad back for years, but this is a bigger event. I will wait it out for a couple days before seeking medical attention. I need to pay more attention to “back care,” i.e. stretching, abdominal exercise; movement. Oh, and I will stop doing my own breakfast dishes. 😉 Just kidding.

    See you next round (I hope)

    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.

    Awful. I’m so sorry. Happens when least expected. (I threw my back out for a month, bending over to pick up a couch pillow!) Stop putting away those breakfast dishes for god’s sake!

    I was also thinking about you this morning, pending your test results… Hoping for the best!

    08/11 -DNW- (Trend weightDNW)

    08/12 -DNW- (Trend weightDNW) My oldest daughter sent me a loaf of fresh zucchini bread made from her garden veg. I didn’t need to weigh to know that I continue to be up. My diet has been bad and we can’t outrun the fork so I just want to bury my head in the sand and stay clueless. I do usually get in a lot more movement over the weekends because my younger DD and DGS are here so hopefully that movement helped. Babysitting him keeps me on my toes!

    08/13 -190.6- (Trend weight189.8) This has been a very difficult and bad round for me - filled with travel and lack of exercise. Tomorrow is my family doctor appointment for me and my son also. The doctor will be very disappointed with my scale reading but not nearly as disappointed as I am. Today will be another busy day with my work crew. I am helping on a project but its all sitting and no steps. Otherwise, it’s great progress on the remodeling front. The outside projects are moving along nicely. I can’t do much about the lack of exercise right now, but there is no excuse for not watching the calories and carbs. Gotta get back in the groove and not let the chaos of the renovations derail me. It’s been wonderful seeing everyone show up daily and I love reading all your posts. Thanks for all the support, my friends! See you next round.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    F, 43yrs, 5'1, prediabetic, unable to be as active as I'd like, due to recent knee surgery.

    Goals This Round
    1. Log ALL food (even if it's high calorie)
    2. Drink 3 bottles of water.
    3. Start enjoying my salads again!

    RSW : 205.8
    RGW : 204
    UGW : 160

    8/4 - All meals went to plan but didn't drink enough water so had a late night snack. Ended up over my calories by 18🤦🏼‍♀️ Must drink more tomorrow!

    8/5 - All meals went to plan but still didn't drink enough water 🤦🏼‍♀️even less than the day before 🤬 stayed under my calorie goal by pure willpower as I could of easily ate 4 bars of chocolate before bed. MUST DO BETTER WITH THE WATER INTAKE!

    8/6 - Breakfast and Lunch went to plan but dinner, not so much - hubby cooked and obviously piled my plate with chips 🤦🏼‍♀️and I couldn't just leave them on the plate 😂 only went over calorie goal by 56 so not too bad going for the day AND I drank my quota of water AND I went for a little walk (first walk since my knee operation so it was slow and steady) Not a bad day considering! 😁👍🏼

    8/7 - oh dear! Not a good day. Over calories by near 500 🤦🏼‍♀️ and definitely not enough water. I don't expect the next few days to go well either as it's my birthday 🙈

    8/8 - Didn't count my calories today - birthdays only happen once a year, after all 😂

    8/9 - (weigh in day) 207. No surprise on the scales this morning. I did have a massive plate of Chinese food for dinner the day before and a big piece of chocolate cake for my birthday 🎂 so the gain was expected.
    Back on it today! Stayed under my calorie goal and drank a ton of water 👍🏼

    8/10 - breakfast and lunch was on plan but hubby through a surprise BBQ for my birthday so dinner was BBQ food and some alcohol 🤦🏼‍♀️

    8/11 - bad day all around - didn't count calories and not enough water.

    8/12 - back on it today! But still went over calories by 50 odd 🙈

    8/13 - (weigh in day) 207. Not surprised by this mornings weigh in. Just disappointed in myself 😞 nevermind, it WAS my birthday week after all 🤷🏼‍♀️

    🐝🐝🐝Goal for this round: less than my starting weight of 137 (yikes) Need to beef up the water and watch the after dinner snacking. Old habits creep back in so quickly!🐝🐝🐝
    ***
    SW RND 268
    8/4. 137.0. The highest I have been in seven months! 👣✏️

    8/5. 136.3. Hit the gym for some bonus points today. Starting this round off on a better note. 🏋️‍♀️👣✏️

    8/6. 136.9. I let some after 8:00 pm snacking get the better of me last night and was still short on water intake. Made it to the gym and did a 2 mile walk with my dog. Was totally on target with everything today! 🏋️‍♀️👣✏️💧🚫

    8/7. 134.8. See what following the plan can do! Now I just need to do it again. One day at a time! Made it to the gym 3 days in a row! 🏋️‍♀️👣✏️💧🚫

    8/8. 134.9. Dealing with getting estimates from folks that can clean out our crawl space from a burst main water line… need old , wet insulation and vapor liner removed and replaced. Also need estimates from a plumber to repair the pipe. Luckily our neighbor was able to plumber us in with a temporary solution so we can have water and not pay for emergency repairs. So… no gym for me today and probably not tomorrow. 👣✏️💧🚫

    8/9. 133.9. 👣✏️💧🚫

    8/10. 133.7. Busy day doing some second crop planting of potatoes in the garden. Trying to stay steady on this hot day. We have a slight cool down next week… I will take it! 👣✏️💧🚫

    8/11. 134.3. Guessing this bump up is either from the creamy Cajun chicken pasta or the fresh blackberry cobbler. ✏️💧

    8/12. 133.9. Social event, but I mostly minded my manners with the calorie content. 👣✏️💧🚫

    8/13. 134.0. Looks like I managed to turn that run-away scale around! Now for this next round I will stick with this plan! Maybe even shave off another pound or two if I get lucky 🍀!!!!

    @Chapter_3
    @judefit1 we are the same - full 💯 determined to never go back… whatever it takes! And, doesn’t it feel terrific?! Learning and growing every step of the way! This is the REAL journey.

    Carolyn, with you completely- I got so tired and mad at myself for the constant seesawing that I'm committed now to make this new "self" stick.
    Thanks for being here to inspire me- you and everyone here who keep working at it!

    I guess one just jumps in, no "join" button, right?

    Me - Meg, age 65, desk job
    Height - 65"
    Starting (late) Round 269 -149.4 lbs :(
    Goal #1 - 142 lbs
    Motto: Don't let perfection and extremism get in the way of good enough.

    I'm moderately active, (swim, walk, strength training - all to support my love of snow skiing!), and I like healthy foods, but I'm easily lead astray by work stress and outside eating opportunities. I've tried to give up logging and just go with the flow, but that's got me in heap of trouble. So I'm back to MFP, confessing my sins to you all.

    My plan is to stay in the 1650 calorie range and adjust from there. Eating too little can only last a day or two before I make bad, bad choices. Striving for daily 85+grams protein, 25+grams fiber, with a side focus on low sodium and high potassium.

    Thanks for letting me bare my soul.
