10/23 - 155.5
10/24 - 155.6 - Slight uptick but not enough to change much. I realized I typo-ed yesterday and put 155.6 so I've corrected that. All is well here. Tonight for dinner we're going out since we'll be in town around dinner for our haircuts and it is easier. That will be my first of two untracked "intuitive" meals for the week. Tomorrow night is our annual VFD Fundraiser/Appreciation Dinner and I'll leave that as an untracked "intuitive" meal since it's a catered one. Everything else should be home and track-able (at least estimated well enough). Workouts completed and all goals met!

Previous Day's Comments10/23 - Day 1 and already at goal! Now to maintain or improve on that. I didn't realize I had more bloat/water weight to drop but apparently I did. I wouldn't be surprised if I don't drop off from here much and that's okay. I'm still in a slight deficit but it is small enough it won't be sudden drastic changes. I am still quite sore this week as I start increasing back to my pre-vacation weights in the gym so I'm probably holding on to some water in my muscles as well. Food was good yesterday and today is planned out to meet all my goals. I need to focus on water early so I can avoid the 2am wakeups which I did successfully last night YAY! Steps are high for the time of day already so I shouldn't have any issue meeting that goal. Meditation is done and feeling good. Now if only work would stop being stressful - 2 of my projects are terribly far behind and it's hard to catch up when I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing and still need to be taught how to do some of the work (it's a program). Very frustrating but trying my best to lower my stress and remind myself it's not my fault - I can't get in trouble for not knowing and needing to be taught. Especially since I have evidence that I'm asking for the help/guidance/teachings and I'm getting very delayed or no responses in return. I'm doing the right thing and that is all I can do.

Welcome to all the new comers to the challenge. Happy to have you join us.
@Blueberries59 ~ congrats on the big swim. Seems like a great form of exercise!
@Leigh_b ~ Sorry that you have Covid. I hope it progresses quickly and you're back to feeling well. Your daughters are amazing!
@_jeffreyD_ New River Gorge National Park is beautiful. One "pro" of new development, no established trees so no leaves to rake🙂
@Chapter_3 ~ ouch. I hope your strain is minor.
@judefit! ~ congrats on reaching your goal!
@SheilaBoneham ~ your skills are amazing. Beautiful baby hat!
@astroamy ~ Congrats on a new decade! Way to celebrate the wins!
Catching up from last round...
@Fazizzle ~ Sorry to hear about your daughter but at the same time, I'm glad she called the hotline when she was feeling so down. Life is tough, especially for our young adults, and sometimes we just don't know how people are feeling. I hope she's better now.
@Quiltingjaine @judefit1 @deepwoodslady @skyleen75 ~ I also wanted to chime in on the colonoscopy vs cologuard discussion. I had my first colonoscopy in 2013, I'm not sure if cologuard was a thing then. I was due again in 2023 and was dreading it (which means major procrastination). Someone mentioned cologuard, so I asked my doctor and she said yes, I was a candidate. I did it and all results were negative. But...as you have discussed, have wondered if something could have been missed. They said repeat the cologuard in 3 years, so I've decided that in 2026, I will do a colonoscopy again. Praying that all continues to be well, I may repeat the cologuard as needed after that.

10/23 134.0 @5:30am Community Bingo tonight
10/24 133.5 Amazed since bingo dinner was a 4” section of sub. I pulled out all of the soft bread and ate the crusts with the turkey, roast beef, cheese and tomato. Added 1/2 T mayo. Skipped the potato salad and watermelon. Got up early to make blueberry muffins for the guys who drink coffee at the clubhouse. DH’s suggestion since we are going to drown in sourdough starter “discard.”
10/25 134.5 I can NOT keep baked goods in the house! They leap into my mouth when I walk by!!! I got over 8 hours sleep last night and I’m dragging. Hope I’m not getting what DH has!7 -
Round 276
SW - 145.9
10/23 - 146.6 - Despite essentially being stuck in bed with covid, I ventured out today to watch my 17 y/o daughter run the last Cross Country race of her high school career. She has been plagued with health issues for the past year and has had an extremely disappointing season. She has been a varsity runner since she was in 7th grade. Last year she was the fastest girl on the team and the only one to qualify for the State meet at the end of the season. She had her sights set on running for a college team after she graduated. This year, her senior year, she did not make the varsity cut. Over the past year, her health has made training nearly impossible and she no longer has the strength or speed to keep up. It is not her fault, but so disappointing, frustrating, and embarrassing for her. To make matters more complicated, her younger sister is a freshman this year, and DID make the varsity team. It’s tough being the mom of both girls - one who is having a disappointing and dream-crushing season and one who is coming in strong and having an amazing first year. Today was the last race for the non-varsity runners - and even though I probably should not have gone - I wanted to be there for her. If she were on the varsity team, she would be running in the regional finals in two days, but instead of wallowing in self-pity she decided to run hard this one last time and finish her year strong. I am beyond proud of her overcoming her pride and disappointment and enjoying this race and the moment she was in. She rallied all the JV girls - led them through their warm-up, laughed with them, encouraged them and then lined up at the starting line and then she ran her heart out. She pulled ahead early - and never looked back. She finished first (out of 120 girls) with a time of 22:16 and a good 30 second gap before the next girl crossed the finish line. It was not the 19:23 she was running last year - but she persevered through the season and never backed down. She never gave up and ran her best effort every time she toed the line. I am so proud of her and I just wanted to share that with someone 🙂.
10/24 - 146.9 - nothing of interest to note today. Still home with Covid and working remotely. Finally feeling a little more human - went out at lunch for a walk to be in the sunshine and beautiful fall weather. Tried to pick up the pace a bit and my lungs got angry with me - hopefully they will feel less irritated tomorrow.
10/25 - 147.7 - going the wrong way - but not by much and I’m hoping once I can get up and moving again things will stabilize.

@itladyee That baby is perfection!! Congrats, grandma, and to the new parents too.
5'5" 45F Rockin' in for another round. It's boggling my mind that Halloween will be encompassed in this one. Here's hoping our house is inundated with trick-or-treaters, or that my willpower stays strong. (It helps a bit that I made sure to not get my own favorite candies, but rather my teen sons'. lol They are tall, slim beanpoles who can hoover any leftovers. )
I'll be weighing in the morning, but won't post comments about a day until the end of the day. That way I'm sure to not sneak anything in late.
Highest Weight: 190.8 (9/8/24)

Food Logged all 10 days - 2/10
16:8 IF schedule all 10 days - 2/10
Calorie Deficit 9 days - 2/9
Water Only 7 days - 1/7
RND 276 (SW 184.2)
10/23 - 184.0 (Lovely day out. Got out to walk, logged everything, and stayed under calorie goal... just barely. LOL Like by 1. Did have a bit of soda, but not the whole can. Still.. I wanted to grab a sweet treat so badly late last night and resisted, so hooray.)
10/24 - 183.8 (I did NOT want to walk today, just no motivation at all. Eventually as it got closer to evening and I realized I'd have to mark it down here as a day missed, it was just enough to kick me out the door and moving. I'm over here pretending y'all would have shamed me mercilessly otherwise. All other goals met too - food logged, only water, calorie deficit, etc - so a decent day overall.)
10/25 - 183.6 (It was gorgeous outside, really feeling like fall. I took a different route than normal for my walk - always just walking around the neighborhood for ease - and spotted several houses with fab Halloween/fall decorations out. Met all other non-scale goals too. )

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 276 (my 206th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.
This round sees no planned travel, so is a good opportunity to have the most perfect round, want to stay strong & make the round a successful one.
Goals for this round;
• First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
• to weigh less at the end of the round than the start
• be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end
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.***
Updated 20.08.24 – I met up with youngest DB, first time after his DP passed away at the way too early age of 46. DB lives a long way from us, we see him very infrequently & is very introvert, so not a sharer of info 😞. However, he finally opened up to me, it seems that his DPs bad health leading to heart failure followed by kidney, liver failure & then a massive stroke, was originally caused by heavy drinking. By the time he realised he was abusing his body and went teetotal, the damage was too late to reverse. He was on the list for a heart transplant, but his other organs gave up before one became available.
This has made me think about how I am abusing my body when I have binges with way too much sugar, fat & salt. I know I am a food addict. I'm going to try to think about this when I am tempted to overindulge, I need to start respecting my body more and think about whether I want to be in the best health I can be. My body has served me so well for 66 years, it deserves to be given the best chance to keep serving me well & I've been really lucky that life has not dealt me a raw health deal, so I must not jeopardize that luck.

This is GOLD! Thank you!
A WW leader used to say broccoli instead of apple. (Possibly before Jordan Systt was born) LOL
That's better for me I love apples and can eat one anytime, hungry it not 😄.4 -

Round 275 End Weight 172.8
10/23- 171.6
10/24- 173.0
10/25- 173.0
10/26- 173.0- I talk a good game and then I eat like a college kid with the munchies! Eating out was fine- I actually love it when somebody else makes me a big yummy salad.
My downfall was DH’s open bag of honey roasted almonds. Ate by the two-handfuls. Walk out of the kitchen, walk back in and repeat. All day.
Today starts the big work outage for DH. The upside to this is no eating out and once those almonds are gone, none of his house snacks. The downside is 7:30pm dinners for him that I have to cook, every single day for weeks. The horror!!!! Lol I want to say it’s the 7:30 part that kills me the most, but really it’s the “everyday”. Ugh who wants to think about some else’s meals every single day.
Obviously I’ve been enjoying the meal flexibility of a no kid home!!!!! This feels like going back to the dark ages.

Travel day yesterday along with travel food.
Trip to Boone, NC for the wedding was good. We saw the tip of the iceberg regarding damage, but I was encouraged by what I saw happening. People are resilient.
On the way home we stopped for a couple days at New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia. Stunning beauty. Fall color.
We return with a lot of yard work to get done. Lawn is covered in leaves. Should be home for this entire round so time to make a dent in it. I can’t wrap my head around November being a part of this round.
10/24: 220.4
/logged; exercised; 75 oz water/
Accomplished a lot of yard work yesterday, and a lot of paperwork for my parents. Stopped in to visit with them also.

Bad social day yesterday. Lots of salt, and food, and no TMI.
I am a skin bag full of retained water, chow and other. I feel like a water balloon.
Not worried, it will go away. Onward.

SW RND 276 - October 22nd, 2024 - 232.6 lbs
10/23: 231.8 lbs (Yesterday was a 500-calorie 'fast day')
10/24: 232.6 lbs (I guess the half-bottle of white wine and 4 cheddar rice cakes - and not enough water - were the culprits!)
10/25: 230.8 lbs (Yesterday, was a total fast day - except for morning coffee and unsweetened herbal tea. It was easy doing the fast, as I got totally agitated with my food delivery person who totally flaked out with my grocery order and I ended up in a fight with the supermarket! So I didn't feel like eating! I think all the aggravation burned extra calories. Problem was resolved in my favor, eventually.)
10/26: 229.8 lbs (Yesterday I was tired physically and took TWO naps during the day... but managed to "trudge" through 2 hours of peddling, but with four breaks inbetween. Found out I have a new vegetable I HATE, and threw away! Edamame, which are young soybeans.)

Oct 23 – Nov 1, 2024
62 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
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)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
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!

10/23 – DNW
10/24 – 134.4 Stumbled for a few days, but made it back quickly. I’ll take that win!
10/25 – 134.8 did not report in, distracting day
10/26 – 135.6 Oh well, yesterday was going to go well enough and I should be some sort of 134. On short notice, I needed to entertain my sister and BIL. He is celiacs, so easy solution is pizza with his being gluten free, and then Haagen Daz Ice cream that they (and I) love. Ate a little heavy with them, then binged as soon as they left (an entertaining type issue that I do). Unfortunately, today was my target day that I referenced back in September. It is my father’s celebration of life (one year), as well as my 63rd birthday. I wanted get back to 130. It did not happen, BUT I am looking at it as, had I not made any effort during those months, my weight would be higher. I will get through today, and then work on my focus again.
No time for reading posts unfortunately, but I saw a gorgeous new baby. Congrats on your grandson! @itladyee

SW RND 276: 152.1
10/23: 152.6: It was a good day. 2 short outside walks, 1 treadmill walk. Still don't feel like my hip is up for running. Food was decent, with the exception of some extra white cheddar popcorn that was not needed.
10/24: 152.2. Eating was okay, but I went over on calories due to a larger snack than I was anticipating. I did my walking, both outside and on treadmill.
10/25: 152.6. I would love to be firmly under 152 by the end of this round. I'm happy I'm relatively stable and not gaining, but it's time to see some more progress.
10/26: 154.4. A lot of bad decisions yesterday. But I did outside walks and a treadmill walk.

I joined this group in Rnd 245 on Dec 18 2023, when I realized I was eating my way through the holidays; I finally got on the scale and was hovering just under 150 lbs. It took about 4 months to reach my goal weight of 125. Sounds great, but I’ve done this before, which is why I’m still here.
It’s not just about losing, it’s about changing the habits of a lifetime that keep me stuck in self-defeating cycles with food.

10/27: excursion to DD#2's house for Friday night "happy hour"- it was a great change of scenery. DGD#1 (17 YO) is being treated at Children's Hosp of Philly (CHOP) for a neuromuscular disorder that requires PT. She and SIL stay there M-F and he works remotely, so last night was homecoming and it was so great to see them both- she looks good!
Lessons on crutches at 67: All the talk about the importance of fitness in aging comes into practice. If I was carrying that extra 25 lbs, this would be much more difficult, and if I couldn't balance on one leg, I'd be very fearful of falling. All the gym work on balance, strength and agility has meant that I'm fairly (cautiously) mobile. I'm challenging myself to find ways to work out on one leg (using the bed as a "bench") and gradually increasing reps each day.

@itladyee - congrats on your new handsome new little DGS#2 & welcome little André Phoenix to the world. Hope mom & baby are well xx And Granny too.
@quiltingjaine “A WW leader used to say broccoli instead of apple. (Possibly before Jordan Systt was born) LOL”
~ Broccoli is definitely a better deterrent!
@SModa61 Happy Belated Birthday! I hope you had a wonderful day!
@judefit1 You’ve got a great attitude! Keeping mobile & flexible is key as we age…. That’s my most compelling motivation to keep going!4 -

📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻Oct Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Oct:
1. P:E: Protein g greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and cals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while 🏋🏼♀️🤸🏼♀️ ⏱️🎾. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. 🙏📝📚🧐 - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of “leveling up” because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. I’ve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. 🏋🏼♀️this is my biggest challenge. I still don’t like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but it’s a daily struggle. Living “fake it till I make it”… Faking my “identity”. My hope is that some 🏋️♀️version eventually becomes a healthy habit. I’m working on a minimum of 10-minute “🏋🏼♀️snacks” 2-3x per day, 6x per round. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that 🏋🏼♀️is the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus “stretch snacks”… I want to up this game… I added ⏱️“sprints” (which is NOW only fast jogging… 😂) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2” vertical jump) 😂. I read to “sprint” is vital as we age…..
5. I have much “work” to do with family relationships. Won’t detail here, but it’s a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I won’t be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. I’m usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I can’t stay up later…. I love getting up early. I’m good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-being…
7. Have fun… lighten up … & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!
👇🏻Review since my 1st R231 7/31/23 NSVs/Journey Reflections
******************
1. ✅HSF: Avg. close to 9k steps per day for 12+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - #HSF 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅#HSF: 🙆♀️ Daily stretch greatly improving my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅ #HSF 📝 🙏 everyday
4. ✅#HSF: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
5. ✅#HSF : Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
6. ✅#HSF : zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 110-125g Protein
8. ✅#HSF Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
9. ✅#HSF 💦70-80oz daily
10. ✅#HSF Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
11. 💤 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
Rotating 115g to 125g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 128- 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !

I pre-tracked protein shake then forgot it. Quite easy to fall under protein. Solid day but was still sore from previous day so took it easy. Today will be another “physical” day with 🏋️♀️⏱️.
This round I got hung up on the daily scale, somewhat… vs the process. I decided to fast and that threw me off my plan to build muscle. In reality, the “daily” scale should not be a “priority” if I am focusing to lose fat / gain muscle. My body fluctuates. A LOT. It still bothers me if it ticks up, but of course, not if it ticks down. I am getting better to not let the scale rule my day… But I cannot deny that it certainly impacts my mood, however nuanced. I should know better! I’m thinking next round, I’ll weigh every three days to see how that shift impacts my mood/ determination & self discipline. I remember when I first started JGMTD that I weighed every three days… perhaps best for me? Onward!

Today – 🏋️♀️30 min & 🚶♀️. Rest quad one more day. DGS this afternoon & Mexican with the ladies this eve. Will order ceviche! Wont adjust my R276 activity goals downward because I pledge to catch up.
NSV: Went shopping yesterday and purchased a skirt, pants and a couple of tops…. SIZE…. SMALL! (Size 6). TBH I could’ve purchased the 4, but I wasn’t 100% confident I would stay “here” I gave myself a little wiggle room. Plus, I’m not 30! Felt really good tho! I know many of us have yo-yoed throughout the years (owning multiple, MULTIPLE clothes sizes: me: sizes 2-14) so purchases on the lower-end can be daunting… But I went for it yesterday.

Did not track Mexican dinner. Had shrimp Fajitas/requested “no oil” and just a few chips. One mezcal /lime juice. I consider that a victory. Surprisingly, pretty good sleep last night.
Attempting a little tennis this morning. I think my quad is back almost 95%. Will hit other goals except holding off on ⏱️ one more day. Happy weekend!

We ate late again last night… The last night out with the “Birthday 🎂” mindset. Had a wonderful time! ⚖️ - no doubt this reflects the late nite. I chose wisely but then…. split a tiramisu with hubby. And actually, it was the BEST tiramisu I’ve ever had!
Felt good to get out on the tennis court again however, my quad is definitely not fully healed. Will take the weekend off … and will plan my fuel accordingly. ⏱️ goals are at risk this round. 😳😢
DGS soccer today and 🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️!
I have to force myself to 🏋️♀️!
Six full days left to MAKE R276 count! Onward!

Started weight loss journey at 167 on April 1, 2022. 39/f standing tall at a woping 4’11” 🤣
Been away for a few rounds and am up a few pounds. Ready to dial the nutrition back in and work towards my ultimate goal.

RSW: 125.7

I’ve made a big goal for this round because things have been a little off for me nutritionally lately. I know if I buckle down I’ll drop a little bit quickly before evening out to more regular loss pace.

I'm always hungry after swimming. Today I'm making banana pancakes, one of my favorite breakfasts. It's so good I must share:

Mush together and make delicious, healthy pancakes! Ok – I do allot myself a few blueberries in the mix and top it off with 1 T warm maple syrup. mmhmm

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

10/23 134.0 @5:30am Community Bingo tonight
10/24 133.5 Amazed since bingo dinner was a 4” section of sub. I pulled out all of the soft bread and ate the crusts with the turkey, roast beef, cheese and tomato. Added 1/2 T mayo. Skipped the potato salad and watermelon. Got up early to make blueberry muffins for the guys who drink coffee at the clubhouse. DH’s suggestion since we are going to drown in sourdough starter “discard.”
10/25 134.5 I can NOT keep baked goods in the house! They leap into my mouth when I walk by!!! I got over 8 hours sleep last night and I’m dragging. Hope I’m not getting what DH has!
10/26 134.5 (I think) Got reasonable sleep (7.5 hr) slight headache and my throat feels funny4
