Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 282
Replies

Hello everyone. I'm happy to have found this group
I'm Lis, 61 from the uk but have lived in Spain for 22 years
Started on mfp in August 2021 at 276lb
Reached goal in December 2022 189lb
Since then I've lowered my goal to 182lb and had a few ups and downs!
Currently on a big up following a lazy summer and a 6 week holiday in the usa!
GOAL: 2.5lb in 10 days
12.22.24 195.8
12.23.24 195.8 13,373 steps. Under calories
12.24.24 195.85 -
🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 282 (my 212th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.
This round I’m again taking something forward from @Chapter_3 (again) if I may "We should be strategically engaged with our lives each day, right?! That’s my new word… ENGAGED." " I will try to keep that word ENGAGED in my mind over these new 10 days. I was also joining her in in a BHAG of 1 pound a round to the end of the year, i.e. to weigh 138 or under, however, due to a blip in the last round, I know 138 is now unachievable, however I am now going to modify that to getting to 140 something or less. I need to be diligent as only 3-5 days per round staying on the waggon is not sufficient to get me back to where I want to be, but celebrations happen and this round includes Christmas Day. If I can keep at a pound a round, I’ll be well happy. I want to stay strong, walk the walk as well as talk the talk! & make the round a successful one. So, goals for this round;
• First and foremost, no feeding frenzies – I am not a shark!
• to weigh less at the end of the round than the start & a pound is my small BHAG for this round
• 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.

12/21 141.6 – (trend 141.4) that’s better, but what a waste of a round after that Christmas goodie fest; that’s given a 0.2 pound increase from the end of last round. 9.65 miles.
SW Rnd 282 141.6
12/22 141.6 (trend 141.5) – 8.74 miles walked. Today is the first day after the winter solstice, looking forward to lighter nights and spring to come.
12/23 141.6 (trend 141.5) – no structured walking, DS & family travelled down to spend the day with us – a delightful day! Happy Christmas Eve Eve everyone !!!
12/24 143.6 (trend 141.8) seems I was not engaged enough at the late dinner/supper xmas buffet with BIL & partner last night. Not hungry this morning so at 7.00am I hit the supermarket for the last of the fresh fruit & salad buying. I’m all done now, caravan is packed ready to tow up to a site on the edge of Sherwood Forest close to DD & about 18 miles from DS. So, this is my last weigh in until Sunday (we travel back Saturday). There is room to pack the scales, but nowhere to use them, carpets throughout except the shower cubicle which has moulded ridges in the base so not level enough for an accurate number – I’ll be “flying by wire”! Tomorrow all 10 of us gather together at DS’s for roast lunch, present exchange & a wonderful magical time with all our little DGC. Happy Christmas Eve everyone,

GOALS*Go back to tracking everything and maintain my spreadsheet!
* At least 8000 (👣) steps each day, but hopefully over 10,000 (🌟) at least 4 times during the round
* Strength training 4 times per round.
* 90+ grams of protein each day.
* Drink more water!

I’m going to acknowledge right up front that this will be the most difficult round of the year for me. No excuses though, just truth. Let’s DO this! I am stealing the Word of the Round from @Chapter_3 and @musicsax: ENGAGED--Staying engaged with my health goals in spite of celebrations and distractions sounds like a great goal for this round! Thank you, ladies!
12/22 153.2 I’ll take this after a day which included two meals out and a couple of drinks with dinner. I was very careful about food choices and drank lots of water. Went to see “A Christmas Carol” at University of Tennessee’s Theater last night, and it was delightful! Such a wonderful production!
12/23 152.2 Got in a nice long walk on a crisp, cold, beautiful afternoon and ate high protein. Fresh made sausage balls count as protein during Christmas week, if I’m not mistaken! Can you believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve? Tomorrow is our big day with grandchildren, and we always have an hors d'oeuvres meal that day. It’s my favorite! It’s been tradition in our family as long as I can remember. This first year without both of my parents, I am treasuring the traditions even more.

Those treasured traditions from our childhood help to keep the memory of our dear departed loved ones in our hearts. For me one of those memories is of my dear Mom singing "Tis Christmas Eve dear Santa Claus will bring his gifts tonight", I can still hear her quiet sweet voice singing it all the way through to us as we were gathered around her & after 17 years that memory still brings tears to my eyes, DS Whatsapps the words to me & our siblings every Christmas Eve morning - makes us all very emotional. I sang it to DD & DS when they were young & now sing it to little DGC. Will always love you Mom

60+ Female using trend weight
I gained an average of 0.3 lbs last round. Did not meet my reduced time goal for the gym. I was still coughing and didn't want to get sicker. I've done 6 rounds and lost 5 lbs. A success in my book so far. My goal this holiday week will be 3 times in the gym as I'll have guests.
🐸I will keep the analogy of boiling frog in my head🐸

Backstory & Progress
********************************
Lived in 140-150s throughout adulthood. HW 172lbs in 2010. Lost 30lbs in 2014 to 128lbs. Crazy🎢 for 10years. Joined JGMTD R231 7/31/23. Lost 15lbs 8/1 -11/23. Said goodbye FOREVER to the 🎢! I’ve named my maintenance journey “#HSF” & “Healthy Strong Fit” on my way to 📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻December Level Up (Down)
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Dec:
1. P:E: Protein g greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and cals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this CLEAN 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, 5x 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” and jumping is vital to joint-health 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 👏🏻🤩 (12/11 This is down due to injury - I pledge to recommit.

11. 💤 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
12.Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
13.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… !

12/22 ⚖️131.0 ✅🚶♀️10k. Just jumped on ⚖️ real quickly to get going for today. I will make a more “ENGAGED” entry later.❤️😍 I look forward to tracking and spreadsheet- Just cannot do it today and will start tomorrow. Simple uptick from being out late last night. Cruddy sleep. TBH I thought 130 yesterday was low, but I’m good with 131 if that sticks because it was 1lb lost R281. Good nutrition yesterday. Good choices @ dinner. Small portions. One cocktail. Dinner went beautifully and I’m looking forward to cold but gorgeous weather - And celebrating with my son and his new bride! ONWARD! Big day ahead!
12/23 ⚖️ 131.4 ✅🏋️♀️🚶♀️10k💤10hrs!!!!
Not bad for two stressful but crazy fun days. Reviewing past 48 hr nutrition I’m quite pleased. Enjoyed my usual Sunday bacon & eggs for breakfast. Enjoyed LOTS of Champagne, two chocolate covered strawberries & FOUR Mexican Wedding cookies @ reception …. No other food. 💯 % carbs. 😂. I ENGAGED by purposely prioritizing VISITING and kept my DISTANCE from temptation. Skipped dinner cuz exhausted. I’ll post a couple of photos soon.
TODAY: 💦💦💯🚶♀️🏋️♀️
Cleanup/pickup work today. During my quiet time this morning, will think of how best to keep ENGAGED over the next few days while traveling. I’m thinking it won’t be realistic to keep a spreadsheet this final round of 2024 but I will definitely track all nutrition. Leaving in AM for NC. ONWARD!

CW: 128.3
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.

12/24: giving myself today off or maybe I'll weigh later.
Today is streak day #364 on MFP , which means the first day was 12/26/23- by far my longest streak ever. In the past I'd reach my goal and say, "OK, done", then creep right back up. From now on, my MFP anniversary will always be Christmas, which is kinda perfect.
Today, Christmas Eve, is our "Christmas". Last night we made Italian cheesecake and struffoli-traditions that have continued for 4 generations, and DP's GSs were both with us to keep it going. Tonight will be a crazy haze of 7 fishes, noise and family. DP and I are very blessed to have all of our children and grandchildren together this year, so it will be a special night.
Also, biggest blessing of all is that my DB, who has pancreatic cancer, is home with his wife and in-laws from Maine; we will be with them on NYE, and I'm so grateful that he's feeling well enough to enjoy the holidays with all of us
to those who celebrate, Merry Christmas! And to all of you, thank you for sharing this year!
And to everyone, the word for our goals in 2025:

@Slimmersixties I’m laughing and absolutely cringing that your “big up” came after 6 weeks in the USA.
@Chapter_3 There is so much love radiating in your photos. Your son looks proud of his family and Tucker looks so happy. Congratulations.
@deepwoodslady We are all allowed to wallow a bit in our feelings but I’d like for you to see what I see. I see a woman who has shown up for herself everyday in 2024. A woman refuses to give up even when it’s hard. Everyone of us have had backslides on our way to our goals. So many just give up. Not you Donna, you keep going!
Anyone else need a cheering section??!!!

I enjoy reading everyone’s posts with my morning coffee.
Highest weight 242 lbs
Lowest weight 142 lbs (2019)
Re-start JGMTD Feb 2024 @ 204 lbs
Round 281 End Weight 173.6
12/22 171.4
12/23 172.4
12/24 172.0 The holidays are definitely affecting my progress. But I’m considering it a huge win that I’m staying invested in making good choices. Or at least making actual choices instead of over indulging non stop.
I felt a bit pathetic working out yesterday but I can’t let my ego get in the way of healing my side. Hoping to be back to normal in a week or two. Until then I’m moving slow, lifting light and modifying movements. I hate it.
I love hearing everyone’s holiday traditions. Christmas Eve has always been my favorite. DH and I will visit my parents in the late afternoon for the traditional appetizers. We’ll take the long way home and look at houses all lit up. I get all of the nostalgic feels.6 -
Merry Christmas, my MFP family! I will be back with a vengeance on Thursday. May this Christmas bring happiness and peace to you. All my best wishes to you this Christmas.4 -

12/22- 224
12/23- 224 I am not disappointed. I know I am still on track and still down 15# from my heaviest.
Mindful eating. I should combine this challenge with 10 days of no binge eating.
12/24- 223 Keeping my eyes on the prize yet still acknowledging that the scale will fluctuate on a
daily basis. Today though, I am happy with this little win.

Hi, I'm Charissa, losing the battle but still fighting the war!
Thank you, @QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
I'm gearing up mentally and physically for 2025
With just 10 days left, I am focusing on reinforcing good habits and introducing a few more to take me into the new year. Not focusing on the scale for now. I am also happy this round ends on 12/31 and we start the year FRESH and ENGAGED
Opening Comments from round 281I'm ending another year NOT where I want to be, actually slightly higher (right now)and that's not a good thing.
BUT ~ I fear to think where I might be had I just thrown in the towel completed.
My goal for the remainder of 2024 is to get to my starting weight for 2024, and that will be two years in a row, which is a wash.
Putting all into perspective - maintaining is a WIN
In the last 27 years, I have
* Lost 4 times (2 were in the last 5 years, which answers the question of what if I didn't even try!)
* Maintained 2 times
* Gained 21 times
2024... my motto(s) - All the things I need to read daily!!!
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
Lose weight in the kitchen ⚖️, get fit in the gym🏋🏾♀️
Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!🚫🍷

12/22 ~ 227.4 ~ tomorrow’s number will not be pretty. I actually made the cookies on Saturday and did really well. I think I had two. Today, not so much, I’ve made up for restraint I had. Tis the season and It’s only one day. While I make several types, there are only two that I really like and they are almost gone! Yipee!!!

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 190.6
12/22-193.0-(Trend Weight: 192.2)-
12/23-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- What a snowstorm we are having! I had 4 hair appointments today that I called and cancelled last night when I saw the weather reports. No way was I driving in this mess to pick up (and then later take home) both my DGS’ for their appointments linked with mine and my sons. I completely forgot to weigh today as I jumped in my boots and went out to shovel before UPS and FED EX arrived. Then came right back in to my hot coffee that was waiting. Oh well. It’s not the first time I’ve done things out of order and forgot to weigh. Anyway…..I have been reflecting on 2024 this morning. I started the year with a weight of 183.8. I’m feeling a little sad today. There is no way that 2024 will be a banner year for me. All I can do is focus on improving from where I stand right now. Shall I end the year with a whimper or a bang? It’s a tough time of year but it is always up to me. In the season of gifts, the greatest gift I can give to myself is dedication to my health. That kinda sounds like a New Year’s resolution, doesn’t it?
12/24-190.6-(Trend Weight: 192.0)- This is the 3rd time in 7 days that I’ve landed exactly on this number. Body seems happy here but I am NOT. Today I will travel to go get my baking and fudge making supplies before the stores close this evening. Our family party is Saturday so I’ve been waiting as long as possible to actually bake. Otherwise, well, we all know I don’t have any willpower. Not yet anyway! So T-Minus 3 lbs. with 2 lbs to go on my mini goal. I don’t expect to hit it by the end of the year but I’m staring it down and on it’s heels! Dinner will be out today so that will not help the cause. Just trying to hang in there as best as I can, even if it’s by a thread. Merry Christmas Eve to everyone who celebrates His Birth.

12/22 136.5 New refrigerator arrived - WOW, is it big! DH and I went to grab a bite while we waited for it to cool down then came home to put the food in. It’s so different I know it will get rearranged.
While we were eating DH said we need to get back to eating right. (He realizes it all went to pieces when he had each of his shoulders replaced and then got on the HOA board.) I told him I had already decided to just start anew on New Year’s Day.
12/23 137.0 I am currently having a really bad vertigo attack. Moving my eyes is making me dizzy. Our Christmas traditions began in 1976, when we moved into our first house. Christmas Eve pizza and Christmas morning “sticky buns.” These continue with both daughters and their families, I believe. And this year for the first time in almost 4 decades we are going to a NYE party.
12/24 138.0 Pasta, meatballs and sauce and a small slice of homemade sourdough garlic bread, 1/2 of a sugar free bear claw pastry - our friends wanted us to see how good they are. Tonight-pizza.4 -

Hi I'm Dailey, and happy to be here. Today is my Birthday! So I'm feeling pretty good, although sometimes it's a day that I feel pretty funky. This will be my second round, and I'm so thankful for your updates and insights last round.
Goals For this round:
1. To drink 66 oz per day of water as my minimum
2. To eat 1 salad every day
3. To prioritize my emotional well being over the Christmas holiday

I predict this is my lowest weight of the year. A little annoying to be so close to onederland but not there. With my trip starting Friday then the conference I'm going to mid Jan the weight loss is going to slow down significantly over the next month.
