Hello everyone, Happy Sunday!
@cinw1501: 4 cats? That's awesome!
Thanks for your well wishes!
@iLive2Walk: Thanks for your well wishes too!
This morning the COVID test line took longer to appear and is fainter than before - online information from CDC states that this means the level of virus is decreasing - yay!
I am not running a temperature but I still have some congestion and a partially blocked right ear, but otherwise I'm okay.
On the plus side, I am losing a little weight. (Hope I can keep it off!)

12/14-191.8-(Trend Weight 193.3)- I have no idea why there was such a bug whoosh today. I am questioning the scale reading and wish I would have weighed in a second place or with my second scale. Especially when I questioned it just the other day for a large drop. DGS had me hopping at the time so I’m stuck with just one reading. I’ll take the weight as a win today but will eagerly wait to see what happens tomorrow. Even though my goal is to lose ANYTHING per round, my micro mini personal goal is to stop focusing on the big picture and focus on just 5 pounds at a time. I think I was at 193.6 when I started focusing on this current 5 pounds. I need to land at 188.6. 3.2 lbs to go if the scale is accurate. T-Minus 1.8 lbs gone (I hope).
12/15-191.4-(Trend Weight 193.1)- Yay! The whoosh yesterday was real. Checked and double-checked. T-Minus 2.2 lbs. 2.8 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs in no set time frame. I’m in a wrapping frenzy and hope to get a lot more done today. A new contractor is coming in the morning for some tile work. A female which is unusual around this very small town. She will work in conjunction with my current contractor who doesn’t have a tile guy at the moment. I anticipate jealousy by my 1st contractor as she will be working around and behind his work (plumbing, drywall etc.). He has a lot of pride but is not as picky as she is. Pride goeth before a fall. I hope he will mind his manners!

@Walela617 thank you. I’m very run down from the trip to Sydney . It was a week ago but that’s fibromyalgia for you. The cardiologist is just to check up on my youngest (17yrs) because he has a bicuspid valve instead of tricuspid so 2 instead of 3 - got to monitor the valves as they are slightly leaking.
@iLive2Walk chronic illness sucks. But I should be used to it. I’m run down and now off to the Gold Coast for a few days. Hopefully my son’s heart isn’t leaking too much. He only has 2 valves instead of 3 so they wear out quicker and begin to leak.

Hi Donna @deepwoodslady, So glad your "Whoosh" was real! You earned it. Over time the weight loss seems kind of like stairs. You drop, then stay the same, then drop again (sometimes it looks like we forgot something and start to go back UPstairs!) but if we keep at it, we start going down again. Often when I go up a bit after really being careful, it's right before a bigger drop.
@ozdeelite, that valve leaking with your youngest son sounds scary! I hope it gets fixed soon!🙏
Enjoy your day,
💗 Carole3 -

Hello I'm Darlene, retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I skipped this challenge for November and it was an epic fail. The first month since I started this journey that I gained weight. So I am back , probably for the rest of my life LOL! Was trying to cut back on my screen time, but logging in daily really keeps me on track. Besides that, missed you all too! 💗

Nice visit with Greg's cousin yesterday. When we got home Greg turned on the football game (not my favorite), so I got all my workouts done. It was a productive day. Today will be a challenge - making cookies all day for the ladies at bingo tomorrow. I know - the Food Gift! But there is 12 of them, and its a good cheaper gift that they enjoy. None of them are watching their weight - next year maybe I'll make some mittens. But the challenge is, not to eat one of each batch! [/quote]

Even though I was under my calorie range I expected this increase (and more). Ate cookies and cookie dough for lunch! Probably underestimated how many calories I consumed! Didn't meet my step goal - first time in forever. My knee was a little sore yesterday so didn't want to push it. We did take Monty for a short walk, then I got an upper body strength workout and a stretch workout done. Today Greg's truck goes in the shop for a recall - going to drop it off and then we found a park to walk while we wait for it to be done. Tonight is bingo night with Mom and our Bingo Christmas party. They serve us dinner - spaghetti with Meatballs. Will have a light breakfast and lunch today to make up for it - and of course there will be desert and goodies on the table! Hoping to be strong!3 -

12/16-190.8-(Trend Weight 192.8)- Wow what a busy week this is going to be. New female contractor here today which upset the old contractor so he won’t come until she’s done with the tile work in the bathroom! Insecure baby! Tuesday is the Christmas concert for the DGS I babysit which is local. Wed is general diabetes doctor appt for son & I just one town over so that won’t be more than a couple of hours. We have completely different clocks here in these small rural towns and the hands move much slower than regular clocks lol. Friday is an 8 hour round trip down to Ann Arbor Michigan for my oldest daughter’s Mammogram. We’ll be leaving at about 6 am. Saturday is DGS #3’s birthday. He is the one that is autistic like my son, and very hard to buy for but I happen to have a little experience in that department. In-between, the new contractor “Rachel” will come as often as I can let her. I continue to wrap presents everyday trying to catch up. I also am wrapping all the new stuff as UPS or FedEx arrives. I was happy with the scale today. A little more progress. I ate a little less than I’d planned as I started gagging on my dinner. It was food within plan that I love but sometimes that happens with me for an unknown reason. I’ve always considered it part of my eating disorders. I ended up eating something else later that felt “safe” and didn’t find I needed any snacks after that. T-Minus 2.8 lbs. 2.2 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs loss within no particular time frame.

Nice visit with Greg's cousin yesterday. When we got home Greg turned on the football game (not my favorite), so I got all my workouts done. It was a productive day. Today will be a challenge - making cookies all day for the ladies at bingo tomorrow. I know - the Food Gift! But there is 12 of them, and its a good cheaper gift that they enjoy. None of them are watching their weight - next year maybe I'll make some mittens. But the challenge is, not to eat one of each batch! [/quote]

Even though I was under my calorie range I expected this increase (and more). Ate cookies and cookie dough for lunch! Probably underestimated how many calories I consumed! Didn't meet my step goal - first time in forever. My knee was a little sore yesterday so didn't want to push it. We did take Monty for a short walk, then I got an upper body strength workout and a stretch workout done. Today Greg's truck goes in the shop for a recall - going to drop it off and then we found a park to walk while we wait for it to be done. Tonight is bingo night with Mom and our Bingo Christmas party. They serve us dinner - spaghetti with Meatballs. Will have a light breakfast and lunch today to make up for it - and of course there will be desert and goodies on the table! Hoping to be strong![/quote]

SECOND HALF OF THE MONTH
12/16-190.8-(Trend Weight 192.8)- Wow what a busy week this is going to be. New female contractor here today which upset the old contractor so he won’t come until she’s done with the tile work in the bathroom! Insecure baby! Tuesday is the Christmas concert for the DGS I babysit which is local. Wed is general diabetes doctor appt for son & I just one town over so that won’t be more than a couple of hours. We have completely different clocks here in these small rural towns and the hands move much slower than regular clocks lol. Friday is an 8 hour round trip down to Ann Arbor Michigan for my oldest daughter’s Mammogram. We’ll be leaving at about 6 am. Saturday is DGS #3’s birthday. He is the one that is autistic like my son, and very hard to buy for but I happen to have a little experience in that department. In-between, the new contractor “Rachel” will come as often as I can let her. I continue to wrap presents everyday trying to catch up. I also am wrapping all the new stuff as UPS or FedEx arrives. I was happy with the scale today. A little more progress. I ate a little less than I’d planned as I started gagging on my dinner. It was food within plan that I love but sometimes that happens with me for an unknown reason. I’ve always considered it part of my eating disorders. I ended up eating something else later that felt “safe” and didn’t find I needed any snacks after that. T-Minus 2.8 lbs. 2.2 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs loss within no particular time frame.
12/17-190.0-(Trend Weight 192.6)- I weighed in my normal spot and the weight was much lower than I trusted so I moved the scale over a bit and it was a little higher. With it differing the 1st spot I just didn’t trust it. I finally shook the lazies and went downstairs to the basement, on the cement, where I do feel the floor is more level and stable. I got the highest number of the three twice. It's not a direct comparison from yesterday but one that seems accurate so this is the one I’m posting today. I’ve put my scale on the charger even though it wasn’t dead yet. We’ll see what happens tomorrow in my normal (and usually reliable) spot. Otherwise, I’ll be starting each day with a flight of stairs which probably isn’t a bad idea anyway! Christmas concert tonight at the school. Doctor appointment tomorrow for diabetes check and general care at my PCP's. I’m not sure if my weight is up or down since my last appointment. I’ll have to research. T-Minus 3.6 lbs today. 1.4 lbs to go on my micro-mini goal.

Hello I'm Darlene, retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I skipped this challenge for November and it was an epic fail. The first month since I started this journey that I gained weight. So I am back , probably for the rest of my life LOL! Was trying to cut back on my screen time, but logging in daily really keeps me on track. Besides that, missed you all too! 💗

Doctor appointment tomorrow for diabetes check and general care at my PCP's. I’m not sure if my weight is up or down since my last appointment. I’ll have to research. T-Minus 3.6 lbs today. 1.4 lbs to go on my micro-mini goal.
12/18-190.6-(Trend Weight 192.4)- Spent last night self-sabotaging before my doctor appointment so my weight would be higher and I wouldn’t have to endure a compliment. I mean, why else would I do such a thing the evening before an important appointment? Or maybe I was just too close to a new decade in weight. Or maybe I was getting too close to my 5 lb goal. Ughhhh…. Anyway, they didn’t mention my weight which is strange because I’ve gained a lot this year. I came home and researched and on the day of my last appt (in Aug) I had already gained so much that my weight that today actually came in at EXACTLY the same as the last appt 190.6 so that explains it. Out to lunch earlier with my son afterward which is a tradition (so he’ll go to the doctor). Tomorrow’s scale will likely not be good. However, I’ll try to keep tomorrow a compliant day as I travel 8 hours round trip on Friday (plus the time for the dr appointment and some shopping) and there will be lunch and dinner out. This is where the weight gain begins for the Holidays for me. Starting today. I’ve really got to practice portion control to offset the choices! T-minus 3 lbs with 2 left to go.

I'm worried that now that I'm over COVID my weight might creep back up. I feel a little worse today for some reason (sure hope I'm not catching something else!) I didn't have much appetite today so maybe I can keep it off.
Have a great day everyone!

Hi all. Been a hectic few days in QLD. Parasailing was awesome and went shooting. My son’s heart is stable so that’s great news. Going home today for a few days before heading to mums. I’m sick again from overdoing it most likely absolutely exhausted.

Hello I'm Darlene, retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I skipped this challenge for November and it was an epic fail. The first month since I started this journey that I gained weight. So I am back , probably for the rest of my life LOL! Was trying to cut back on my screen time, but logging in daily really keeps me on track. Besides that, missed you all too! 💗

Nice visit with Greg's cousin yesterday. When we got home Greg turned on the football game (not my favorite), so I got all my workouts done. It was a productive day. Today will be a challenge - making cookies all day for the ladies at bingo tomorrow. I know - the Food Gift! But there is 12 of them, and its a good cheaper gift that they enjoy. None of them are watching their weight - next year maybe I'll make some mittens. But the challenge is, not to eat one of each batch! [/quote]

Even though I was under my calorie range I expected this increase (and more). Ate cookies and cookie dough for lunch! Probably underestimated how many calories I consumed! Didn't meet my step goal - first time in forever. My knee was a little sore yesterday so didn't want to push it. We did take Monty for a short walk, then I got an upper body strength workout and a stretch workout done. Today Greg's truck goes in the shop for a recall - going to drop it off and then we found a park to walk while we wait for it to be done. Tonight is bingo night with Mom and our Bingo Christmas party. They serve us dinner - spaghetti with Meatballs. Will have a light breakfast and lunch today to make up for it - and of course there will be desert and goodies on the table! Hoping to be strong![/quote]

Christmas with Mom, we are taking her out to lunch and presents. We'll see her this weekend and on on Christmas day as well - but don't exchange gifts then. I love this season, but it sure is hard on the diet! I will enjoy myself, and then get back at it for a couple days until the big celebration this weekend!

Nice lunch with Mom, she was in a wonderful mood. It was an expected gain - way over my calorie limit and the salt! I have two days until we celebrate Christmas, but at this point I am hoping to just get through the holiday and then I'll get back on track and in losing mode.2 -

12/17-190.0-(Trend Weight 192.6)-
12/18-190.6-(Trend Weight 192.4)- Spent last night self-sabotaging before my doctor appointment so my weight would be higher and I wouldn’t have to endure a compliment. I mean, why else would I do such a thing the evening before an important appointment? Or maybe I was just too close to a new decade in weight. Or maybe I was getting too close to my 5 lb goal. Ughhhh…. Anyway, they didn’t mention my weight which is strange because I’ve gained a lot this year. I came home and researched and on the day of my last appt (in Aug) I had already gained so much that my weight that today actually came in at EXACTLY the same as the last appt 190.6 so that explains it. Out to lunch earlier with my son afterward which is a tradition (so he’ll go to the doctor). Tomorrow’s scale will likely not be good. However, I’ll try to keep tomorrow a compliant day as I travel 8 hours round trip on Friday (plus the time for the dr appointment and some shopping) and there will be lunch and dinner out. This is where the weight gain begins for the Holidays for me. Starting today. I’ve really got to practice portion control to offset the choices! T-minus 3 lbs with 2 left to go.
12/19-191.0-(Trend Weight 192.2)- Lunch out with my son really did me in yesterday. Portions and choices were okay but restaurant food is certainly cooked and seasoned differently than at home. I will try to make today a better day as tomorrow is the long travel (medical and shopping) day and it won’t be any better. In fact, it will be worse as daughter is planning Chinese food which we Never Get unless traveling and two meals out will be required. Our dinner isn’t until the 28th so I hope to string together a few days after Friday where I can be compliant. I just got to stay away from the BLT’s (bites, licks, tastes) when I do my baking next week!

👣 19K Steps, 100 Min 🚶♀️➡️ 5 mile walk, 25 Min 🫀 Cardio, 15 Min 🧘♀️Stretch. Calorie Deficit - 92.
Christmas with Mom, we are taking her out to lunch and presents. We'll see her this weekend and on on Christmas day as well - but don't exchange gifts then. I love this season, but it sure is hard on the diet! I will enjoy myself, and then get back at it for a couple days until the big celebration this weekend!

Nice lunch with Mom, she was in a wonderful mood. It was an expected gain - way over my calorie limit and the salt! I have two days until we celebrate Christmas, but at this point I am hoping to just get through the holiday and then I'll get back on track and in losing mode.

Nice swish, felt good to be on track. Should be another good day today before the frenzy of the weekend - my favorite time of year just the same and will just get back at it after it calms.

Hi Everyone!
I'm Cindy and 51 and have been married to my very supportive husband for 27 years. We have a daughter who is 19.
I can't believe its December!🎄⛄ 2024 has not been my year for loosing weight. However, I did get a gym membership in July and go consistently. Usually 4 days a week, so I consider that a win. I do feel more fit even if the scale doesn't reflect it.
The November goal of logging my food was met the last half of the month and I started to see a little change in weight.
April 2020 - 165
Goal - 140
December Starting Weight - 159
December Goal - 155
12/1 - 159 ⬇️
12/2 - 158.8 ⬇️ Made it to the gym after work. Logged my food.
12/3 - 158.6 ⬇️
12/4 - 159 ⬆️ Ugh! I worked out hard yesterday. This is so frustrating.
12/5 - 158.4 ⬇️
12/6 - 158 ⬇️
12/7 - 158.2 ⬆️ 😢 Too much bread yesterday and no exercise.
12/8 - 158.2 Well at least I didn't gain. 🫤 Got a lot of Christmas shopping done yesterday. Just have a few more or buy.
12/9 - 158.8 Starting the week the same as last week. So sick and tired of staying in a calorie deficit, working out, and still not loosing. Feeling defeated.
12/10 - 158.6 ⬇️ Did not go to the gym out of frustration and ate what I wanted. Tacos!
12/11 - 159.8 ⬆️ A reflection of being frustrated and eating what I wanted. Skipped the gym again today to go see my horse. I rather pet a horse than go to the gym. She needed her thicker blanket anyways. It has started to get quite chilly at night.
12/12 - 160 ⬆️ Went to the gym today and back on track with eating. I just had a throw a toddler tantrum for a few days. The scale should be better tomorrow.
12/13 - 158.2 ⬇️ Looking better. We shall see what the weekend holds.
12/14 - 158.8 ⬆️ Went to lunch with a friend yesterday ate what I wanted. I needed a juicy burger and fries. Didn't eat dinner because I was full from lunch. Probably over on my calories and no gym. Today I need to finish up Christmas shopping and get out the decorations. The tree is still in the attic. 🫤
12/15 - 159.2 ⬆️ Not surprised that it went up. Christmas shopping didn't get finished, but the decorations are out of the attic. The tree is up, but not decorated yet. We are supposed to do that this evening. My daughter's friend is coming over this evening to help. Pretty lazy day yesterday just baked cookies and hung out at home.
12/16 - 160.4 ⬆️ Her friend didn't come over and the tree is not up yet.
12/17 -160 ⬇️ We had our work Christmas party yesterday, so I expected a gain.
12/18 - 159.6 ⬇️ Did weights yesterday at the gym.
12/19 - 160 ⬆️ Did stairs yesterday at the gym. Lots of sodium in dinner last night.
12/20 - 159.8 ⬇️ at this point I think it will be a gain for December. 😢😡 Did stairs yesterday at the gym. Thinking about going back to Paleo. I will miss cheese, beans, and tortillas. But probably won't start again until January. We have to get that tree decorated this weekend. 😝🎄I have a massage this morning. I have been looking forward to that all week.2 -

12/18-190.6-(Trend Weight 192.4)-
12/19-191.0-(Trend Weight 192.2)- Lunch out with my son really did me in yesterday. Portions and choices were okay but restaurant food is certainly cooked and seasoned differently than at home. I will try to make today a better day as tomorrow is the long travel (medical and shopping) day and it won’t be any better. In fact, it will be worse as daughter is planning Chinese food which we Never Get unless traveling and two meals out will be required. Our dinner isn’t until the 28th so I hope to string together a few days after Friday where I can be compliant. I just got to stay away from the BLT’s (bites, licks, tastes) when I do my baking next week!
12/20-192.8-(Trend Weight 192.3)- This is usually my no-weigh Friday but my schedule changed due to the school being closed. We were slammed with a winter storm so I didn’t have to get up or do an extra-early weigh-in. I was expected to travel a very long in-state day for DD’s medical appt but had to cancel that as we have been snowed in. Got some shoveling in today for sure with more to go. The rest is up to my son! I had pizza yesterday so I’m not surprised at the uptick. Also it is Day 2 with no TMI. All excuses aside, I must stick to plan today and try to reach my water goal too. It’s creeping back up and not conducive to that 5 pound loss I’ve been eyeing in the showroom window. T-Minus 0.8 lbs with 4.2 lbs to go. Time to get the gears out of reverse and move forward! Lots more packages and wrapping today. Merry Jolly Jingle Bells and all that other good stuff!
