10/24 -191.0- (Trend weight -192.3-)
10/25 -DNW- (Trend weight -DNW-) Today is my no-weigh Friday due to my extra early schedule and my special once-per-week with water medication. I woke up extra tired today and probably would have given a couple of my teeth to crawl back into bed but I guess it is what it is. My contractor will be here in just a bit. So here I am to support you all and wish you a wonderful Friday and a great weekend. @tiabirdie56 Missing You!
10/26 -191.6- (Trend weight -192.1-) I just realized (it just dawned on me) that I usually do well at home because I don’t usually keep anything tempting or off-plan in the house. Not because I choose to make good choices or I practice good portion control when I have treats. This is very likely why I always gain when I am out of my “safe zone” and in restaurants or other social situations. I can already see that maintenance would be a disaster, if I ever even get there. I’m not trying to be gloomy or pitiful. Just honest. It’s always a challenge on weekends when my daughter is here but this weekend was a little worse with Real Junk such as Halloween (orange centered) Oreos and such. Honestly, I can’t expect that others around me like my DS or DGS or DD never get treats or holiday festive foods just because I’m on a diet, or even because I am a diabetic. I’ve truly got to learn self-control and how to make good choices for Me, no matter what everyone else is having. I haven’t even COME CLOSE to learning any of that yet. I really had a moment of clarity this morning on this. It doesn’t make things easier in knowing this, in fact, it may even make things worse as it is not up to me to deny anyone around me anything. That includes my 100 lb soaking wet daughter who knows how to take one mini Reeces and then stop. It’s not anyone else’s fault I eat them by the handfuls if I’m going to eat them at all. Not their fault I haven’t learned self-control even at the age of 64! I’ve got such a long long road ahead but I hope to approach it with a different attitude going forward. I am going to start researching on how to look at food differently etc. It really does all start and end with me and should have nothing to do with what is going on around me! ANYONE can eat less if they are in a room with no food! I can do better!

Oh dear - started well and then had a meal provided for me and that had a bad result and sent me off the wagon! I wasn’t going to carry on, and have completely blown it since but when I saw some members have put DNW I thought I would try and carry on. Obviously this set of 10 days will not end on success but hopefully I can end on the same as my starting weight 😩

@SModa61 - happy birthday! Hope you had an awesome good day
@judefit1 - so glad to hear your granddaughter is looking good. It must be hard for her and SIL to have to be away from home so much.
@Blueberries59 - thank you sharing your pancake recipe. I buy bananas every week but never eat them all (I always assume someone in my family will have a few, but then they never do). There are only so many banana bread muffins I can make. Glad to find another use for the old bananas I always seem to have4 -
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.
10/26 - 148.5 - so much the wrong direction 😕. Finally tested negative and went out for mexican (DH's idea) to celebrate. It was VERY salty and i didnt drink enough water. Hoping to see it go back down tomorrow - although im not drinking enough water today either so it might be still another day before i see a change in the right direction.

🎷 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.

10/23 142.4 – 7.52 miles walked. Good start to the round, back to weight when I left for Turkey.
10/24 141 – 11 miles walked. Pleased with this woosh, just shows what sticking to the plan does.
10/25 141 – 9.2 miles walked, & the whoosh stuck !
10/26 141 – 7.96 miles walked.
10/27 141.8 – (trend 142.1) Guessing this is yesterday's pizza night with the extra sodium & carbs even though calories were on point. Walked an amazing 13.45 miles. The start was at the Pontcysyllte Aquaduct; where very atmospheric mist hung around the hills.
Which as we walked along the Llangollen canal, quickly burnt off and became warm autumn sunshine. This l showed up well at the Horseshoe Falls that we reached, before we walked back.

10/26- 173.0
10/27- 173.2 Hmmmpfh. I’m blaming the 7:30pm dinner. I have to make the adjustment to eating my main meal earlier and having a light snack when DH eats.
I have noticed I’ve been at my lower daily weight in the early afternoon the last few days. I’ve said this before but just so new members don’t think I’m a psycho constantly stripping down and jumping on the scale.
My scale is in my closet, out of habit, I weigh when I change my clothes throughout the day.. I have a lot of wardrobe changes- exercise clothes, house clothes, gardening clothes, out of the house clothes.
My last 24 hour cycle was 173 at wake up, 171.8 after exercise/meal/work and I ended the day at 176.4. Woke up 173.2.
That is the highest before bed weight I’ve been since July!
I LIKE knowing my daily fluctuation is usually almost 5 pounds, it puts weight into perspective for me. My weight is not a static number.
Still I’m up five pounds from last month this time so I have to put some effort in, not just stare at numbers and figure out ways to make myself feel better about them 😂.

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.)
10/27: 229.2 lbs (More energy yesterday for peddling. Yesterday, I cooked a HUGE new VAT of cabbage soup. Hoping I can make room for at least 4 quart containers in my freezers. In any case, I'll be eating A LOT of cabbage soup this coming week! LOL)

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: that weight is with an "ish", on one foot with the boot on. I had DP bring the travel scale and set it up in my temporary room in a safe spot where I can balance, so now I can't make excuses. I'll use this as my "baseline with boot" for now.

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

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.

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.5 -

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 do lots of walking.
10/27: 155.5. I played pool with some friends yesterday. That, of course, included a few beers. Add in some fast food, and I'm not surprised with the high weight. I'm getting back to it today and hopefully some of this excess weight will fall off quickly.

📣#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… !

✅ 💤 9hrs 🚶♀️13k 🏋️♀️10min 💦 P:E .70; Pg 66
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!

10/23 130.2 Overboard on protein yesterday. I strained a quadricep playing tennis so 🚫🏋️♀️after. Will nurse it today. Gosh, I wrote out my goals yesterday for this round, so I hope I don’t need to adjust Looking forward to a good day of rest, walking, and maybe some 🏋️♀️upper body.
10/24 🚶♀️11k 🏋️♀️10min 📚💤8hrs 💦P:E .9, P88g (missed Protein goal)
Quadricep still painful but walked anyway. Better today. 🏋️♀️brief upper body. (Did skull crushers which are NOT my fav because I’m always afraid I’m going to crush my skull). Feeling those puppies this morn!
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 🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️!

Round 276
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!

10/24 – 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 @itladyee

I’ve backslid on my fasting after supper the past few days, and although I didn’t eat junk, I still need to get back to not eating at night. I’m going to try switching to herbal tea or warm unsweetened almond milk to satisfy my “need.” This is a more challenging week than normal, too, as I had brunch with a friend yesterday and am meeting different friends for breakfast tomorrow and lunch Friday. Breakfasts are hard—very few places have much available in the healthy eating range. But I’m trying! I’ve been better about walking regularly at least. And I’ve been knitting up a storm to get a few things ready to donate to holiday fair. I won’t bore you with everything, but here’s a baby hat I finished Monday.

I ate responsibly yesterday, but feel very bloated today for some reason. Oh, well. I’ll just keep on keeping’ on.

Phooey. But well earned. I ate responsibly until after dinner, then completely fell off the IF wagon and ate granola with almond milk and raisins, and two fun-size Almond Joys. But today is planned. Yesterday I made a pot of chicken fajita soup with lots of veggies and very low fat, so that’s dinner, and DH can have the two remaining corn bread muffins. And I’m thinking tuna salad made with guacamole, no mayo, on tomato slices for lunch.
