Success of the week: I had a fantastic day in the forest this week and found lots of chanterelles. I want to go back and look for a cauliflower mushroom that I know is there but that I couldn't find.
Struggle of the week: A little hiccup in my getting back down into my ideal maintenance range. I'm still in the absolute range, and October was pretty successful. Back after it!

Successes/struggles of the week: Weight is still quite a bit higher than the high end of my range, and still working to lower it back down, but my weight lifting workouts continue to improve with my weight being higher. Working on cutting down on meals out, but it's hard as I've been meeting up with friends who I haven't seen in a while over the past few weeks. Hopefully I'll make some downward progress before the holidays.3 -

Success of the week: I had another good day foraging for mushrooms. I never did find that Sparassis (cauliflower mushroom); I looked quite a lot. Maybe someone else already got it this year, maybe it didn't come up this year, maybe it hasn't come up yet this year, or maybe I just walked right past it.
Struggle of the week: October was so good, but so far November has been a struggle. I am once again leaving my maintenance range, so time to fix that.0 -
stopping in to celebrate 7 year maintenance anniversary. I don't weigh enough to keep up with this thread but I step on the scale every once in a while and usually then have to lose a pound or two to get back to my range. 😆🙃🤷♀️
Originally my range was under 100 but now I am happy at 105 or under. So I just keep an eye to make sure I stay at or below that #.
It took me a long time to realize that all maintenance was was a smaller yo yo of up and down (hopefully within 5 pounds and within the margin of error of weighing) and to be pretty happy with that. My biggest challenge is to limit the binging which I have done most of my life and have accepted will happen sometimes but try to mitigate the bounce around from it and just keep moving forward.
I love seeing the consistent posting of you all here so I do lurk. ✅2 -

Successes/struggles of the week:
Background: I joined MFP in 2012. In 2017 I reached my goal weight of 146. Around 2021 took my eye off the ball and regressed to the 190s. A year or so ago I spotted the ball again and started working my way back.
I used to log my food diligently but haven’t done so much at all in 2024 - but I do have a very good sense of serving sizes and how many servings to eat!
I am considering going back to daily logging though, as much to keep track of nutrient consumption as anything else: sheesh, those dang lab tests you get as part of your annual checkup - turns out I need to watch my sugar consumption to stay below the “pre-diabetes” level; I need to make sure my calcium level is good; and (oh irony of ironies) I need to watch my fruit and vegetable consumption because I have a tendency toward high potassium levels.
I appreciate that I haven’t AS YET been asked to watch my sodium consumption!
Wishing everyone a wonderful week! 🌸🌺

Successes of the week:
My VO2 max is now 39 Excellent, a great 1st anniversary gift from me, to me (of my decision to lose weight and get fitter, last November). Next stop, the Superior zone?
Struggles of the week:
Bought and ate a whole 150g bag of crisps (chips to those from the US), a particular brand/flavour I just cannot portion control… It was on a (ski) teaching day so I could afford the calories BUT I could have made much better food choices than that. Luckily they only sell them at a store I rarely stop at - but I think the only solution is to stop shopping there, permanently, and forget this product exists.1 -

Struggles:
I was away for 3 nights last week – it involved a lot of travel in a coach – hence the jump in weight.
I find it so difficult to get my usual veg count in when eating in hotels, and the low fibre results in digestive issues.
Quite a bit of the excess weight has gone since we got home on Friday night but hopefully more will drop off fairly quickly.
Successes:
I shall see over the next few days how quickly I get back to my usual weight.

Successes/struggles of the week: Working on bumping up my exercise and steps and cutting calories down a bit, along with continuing to try to cook more food and eat out less. Since my second job on the weekends is done for the year, I need to compensate for that since that involved standing and moving around for several hours which I'm no longer doing.2 -

Successes/struggles of the week: Not where I wanted to be going into the holiday (several pounds above the top of my range still), but I seem to have stabilized at least, and I'm actively working on reducing calories each week and trying to put more effort into my workouts.2 -
Nov 25th update
I left home on Saturday the 23rd, stayed in an airport hotel and flew to Gran Canaria on Sunday.
On Saturday morning I weighed in under 48 kg, but now I'm on holiday with no scales (for me or my food). We're staying all-inclusive for 2 weeks. I've been walking a lot, swimming a bit, and trying to choose sensible food options most of the time

Successes/struggles of the week: Finally saw some downward movement. I managed to drop back into the 120-ish range for a couple of days around Thanksgiving (didn't overindulge too much which helped), which I hadn't seen since early November. Will continue efforts to progress downwards, though this week will be tough with a few meals planned out.2
