@pettycoatjunction I too had a GSP walking buddy. They are a special breed. So much energy and so much love to give. We will definitely have another in our future, maybe in 2026. For now, I get my fix from the Facebook group I'm part of.
I too get my fix from a group on Facebook (GSP A**holes). Hank was my second one.

I did it...outside for 20 minutes and it's 20 degrees outside.
A bit chilly...but very doable.
I'm thinking I may adopt the degrees outside as the minimum walk on non working days, as @reshii_devi said, as long as it's dry. So 20 degrees, 20 minutes, 5 degrees, 5 minutes!!
@chapter_3 @reshii_devi
Then I came back and did the 7 minute workout, I mean, who doesn't have 7 minutes. I had a modify a couple of things but still moving!!

Goals for the next 10 days 🍎💦👣
1. Stay engaged! That means checking in here daily, so catching up doesn’t become so overwhelming (plus you all inspire me). That also means logging every single day…
2. Weigh less at the end of this round. Hope to see a 136, totally doable by upping the water and limiting the wine. For me it is going to be a damp January.
3. More sleep would be amazing! That will be the most difficult of goals to reach 😞
RND 283 : SW - 138.4
1/1 - 138.4
1/2 - 138.2. 🍎logged it all. guzzled the 💦. 13,500 👣. And no 🍷. Off to the kind of start that makes a difference!
1/3 - 136. Went to the gym today! 🍎logged it, drank 💦it and 👣12,000 steps.
1/4. 137.2
I’m going to go take a look at that 7 minute workout! Sounds like the perfect way to ENGAGE!7 -

BackstoryIn 2022 I was around 157lbs with 24% bf. Was definitely in the “best shape” of my adult life then. Since then I started a new career working from home as a developer. Have moved away from my family for fiancés job. We’ve moved several times to various states in a short time span. So far we’ve moved 3 times, all about 9 months apart. Welcomed two puppies into the mix. Lots of changes. Lots of time spent at home. Lots of time spent away from family. Fell out of touch with friends. All of the adjustments and figuring out how to manage/handle more daily responsibilities and navigate through this phase of life has manifested into me gaining 20+lbs and losing a lot of willpower, motivation, drive, positivity, etc that I once thrived on. Found this challenge and it has been helping me get it back. Nothing is permanent! Looking forward to working through this.
Overall Goals and ChallengesGoals
1. Focusing on behavior and mindset. Calories have been going way over for so long I need to reel the behavior back in a healthy way.
2. Don’t give up on the day when it’s challenging. Choose to make good decisions in those moments instead of giving in.
Challenges
1. Working from home makes it easy to stress eat or just eat out of boredom/habit.
2. Sleeping less (have two puppies, a 7mo and a 11mo old) makes it hard to wake up early enough to get a good workout in or at least to feel good awaking up. Feel defeated in the motivation and drive department compared to how I was previously.
Daily, Small, Attainable Goals1. Finish 1st 27oz water before 2pm
2. Finish 2nd 27oz water before bed
3. Alternate standing and sitting at desk every other hour during working hours (or stand at least half of the day).
4. Hit maintenance calories.

Fell off the challenge bandwagon in round 256, managed to keep losing weight until June 12th when I hit 155.9 (70.7 kg). I fell off the weight loss wagon shortly after. Decided to start back up the day before Round 278 started.
SW Rnd 283: 154.9 (70.3 kg)
1/1- 154 (69.9 kg) Starting the New Year off with a bang! It's probably this low because a decent portion of yesterday's calories were liquid, but it's nice to see a few weigh-ins below 155 sprinkling in.
1/2- 154.1 (69.9 kg) Can't think of a reflection tonight. Motivated to keep going.
1/3- 153.6 (69.7 kg) Exactly 27 pounds down from when I started tracking in January last year. I expect an upswing over the next days because tonight was a team appreciation work dinner at a steakhouse and I quite thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I am quite full. More than that though, it was a good relaxing evening with my coworkers. I feel quietly contented.
1/4-154.6 (70.1 kg) Today was spent with my 9 year old niece. We did a paint n sip, then DH and I took her to the arcade and out to dinner. I think she probably would have just as happy or happier with Taco Bell, but I wanted her to have a memorable day. I went over on calories again, but should still be under maintenance.

@pettycoatjunction GSP A**holes for me too. It's a great group. I was laughing just last night at the post from the woman whose dog jumped into the bathtub with her while she was trying to relax with a glass of wine. Nice to meet a fellow group member on here!

Hi everyone, good luck with the challenge!
I’m trying again to lose weight for the 2848284th time for about 20 years. Hopefully it works this time and I become consistent. I am hoping to lose as much weight as I can until August, which is my wedding month. I don’t like to see myself in photos, so I can’t look at those photos forever. I also cannot find a wedding dress in my size that I love. I want to increase the wedding dress options for myself. I know these all sound a bit toxic, I am sorry if I trigger anyone. I have been looking at wedding dresses for a while now and it has been a very frustrating experience because of my size. I wasn’t this unhappy about my body before. At the same time I have some health issues which can be better with weight loss. I also want to try for a baby next year, losing weight will be helpful for the PCOS.

Day 4: In my Brittney Spears voice “Oops! I did it again”👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😂🔥 Except it was no accident. 💯% mindful 💯% intentional. That’s really what I’m celebrating y’all. Being mindful and intentional, one day at a time. Yesterday NSV’s-no soda, no FF, hit every goal on my fitness watch 41/2 bottles of H2O. Woohoo! 🥳 💃🏾If this part of my post looks familiar, it is. Hit the same NSV’s as yesterday. Incredibly excited about that. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
BP: 134/77 pulse 68🙌🏾 All thanks and praise be to God-now that’s more like it! My body seems better able to tolerate 5 bottles of water, so increasing to 5 for the rest of the challenge. I think this BP drama was/is dehydration. I 🙏🏾. Let’s see what happens tomorrow and going forward.
Challenges yesterday: EXHAUSTED! No workout with the heavy bag, no trip to the doctor (this was intentional too), no laundry, sloth mode was fully activated early in the day. I went back to sleep. I finished my fitness watch activities VERY LATE, awful sleep last night, stressing about return to work and the hiccups, headaches, and drama already presenting themselves. Back to the grind Monday. Deep sigh. I don’t care. 🤷🏾♀️ I’m staying the course for one more day.
I don’t know how my story will end, but nowhere in my text will it EVER read… “I gave up”. (author unknown)
I remember those sleepless nights before returning to work, fretting about the long list of jobs which would need doing, how many members of my team would actually turn up etc. Being retired for quite a few years now, I do not miss that. My sympathy goes out to you, - you can only do your best. On a positive note, you are doing so well with you new life style, keep on track my friend, you're doing brilliantly xx8 -
🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 283 (my 213th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.
This round I’m starting in the New Year & new round, 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. My goal for this round is 2 pounds to start the New Year off. 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. Then for the rest of January 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 or even a piranha!
• to weigh less at the end of the round than the start & 2 pounds 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.

SW Rnd 283 144.8
1/1 Happy New Year to each one of you and your families.144.8 (trend 142.7) – urgh this number !!! Two meals yesterday, lunch with sisters & not good choices available on the menu and DH & I had planned a special steak meal as we weren’t going out to celebrate New Year, woke in the night feeling very bloated & uncomfortable so knew the number was going to high this morning. So enough of excuses; New Year, new round, new day, will treat today as a reset day, I need to stop the rot! All the open festive goodies have gone, still have a tub of Quality Street chocs, box of chocolate truffles & a block of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk all unopened & sealed, they will stay intact for all of this round. 9.12 miles walked. Haven’t met my target this year, lots of reasons, but not going to make excuses!
1/2 143.2 (trend 142.8) – reset day worked well, may try to do this once per week; 1256 calories consumed, 7.51 miles walked, all chocolate packets remain sealed 😊.
1/3 142.6 (trend 142.7) – 6.69 miles walked, met up with DD,DIL, DS & all little DGC for a lovely day out before the older ones go back to school next week.
1/4 142.6 (trend 142.7) 7.98 miles walked, 3rd consecutive day of engaged eating, feeling in good spirits.
1/5 142.6 (trend 142.7) 13.28 miles walked with DH over Cannock Chase, stopping off midway at Shugburough Hall to eat picnic. Woke up to a covering of snow this morning - a winter wonderland! This is a screenshot of my heart zones and how long I was in them, from our walk yesterday.
Sorry I couldn't get them side by side!! Welcome to all our newbies & returnees - this group is so large now - it takes ages to read everyone's post and seems that I missed a whole page yesterday ? Don't know how I managed that, but we're all in this together lets make it work for us all and have a most successful round.

Blah... Did well last night until we came home from families house. Was really craving wine and instead of doing the smart thing and just going to bed, I pigged out on snacks! What was I thinking? Oh well. Today is a new day, and I did NOT drink, even though I really wanted a glass of wine, so I will take the small victory.
Tomorrow things go back to normal as I start back to work after my time off. The plan is to start getting to my workout class again (Body Combat) and that should help the scale stop fluctuating and start moving down.
Goals Met
Dry January

@musicsax and @Chapter_3 Thank you for the detailed information now on heart zones. I'm going to see about getting some help at the gym one day this week on getting mine figured more accurately, but I do think mine are set too high. Until I get someone else to help me, I'm going to calculate them based on the percentage of MHR.6

SW Rnd 283—152.4
1/1 153.2 Happy New Year! No alcohol yesterday, but had a little upswing anyway. It’s fine. I typically hang out at about the same weight for a bit as long as I’m behaving, then the drop will come. I just had that drop at the end of last round, so I’ll vacillate for a bit now. It’s just the way my body works. I’m getting tantalizingly close to two things: 1. 151.3 will be a 40-lb drop, 2. 150 is my initial goal. I’d love to get to at least one this round, but it may not happen. Weight loss is s-l-o-w for me now. I’ve learned if I try to speed it up by being extreme, I make it where I just won’t continue. So, I’m staying the s-l-o-w course, come what may.
1/2 152.6 Not enough exercise yesterday, spent too much time in the car, but food was good. Headed out to walk the beach today and will try to get in more steps throughout the day today. I’m trying to figure out this Heart Zone 2 thing, so I’ll be playing with that during my walks if I can figure out my watch.
1/3 153.2 Got in two really good walks yesterday and ended with 12K+ steps. Ended up getting in 32 minutes in Zone 2 once I used a calculator to find the ones for my personal resting heart rate. It was interesting to see that I had to be doing a really brisk walk to get into that zone and that it took a few minutes to get it up there. Fascinating stuff, really. Still lots to learn. Not going to try to do it every day yet, but will work on doing it more frequently. I’ll be interested to see if the Silver Sneakers workouts get me there when I get back home. Not sure they will.
1/4 153.8 A splurge on some fried seafood on our last day in Florida. We fly home today. Had a lovely brisk walk in the neighborhood which I will miss, but I’m looking forward to getting back to routine in the next couple of days. Gotta turn the weight trend around quickly. Steps: 11,426, with only 15:30 Zone 2 minutes. Still haven’t figured out all I need to understand about this. It took me 12 minutes to work up my heart rate to zone 2, and I was walking fast! I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing!
1/5 153.6 Home from FL, so hopefully will get back to losing. 13,750 steps yesterday but I tweaked a hip pointer and got little sleep last night. May not do a brisk walk today and let my hip feel better. Need to walk my pup some, so there’ll still be some steps weather permitted. I’ve gotten behind on a quilting project, so there’ll be some sewing too! It’s good to be home. Supposed to be snow/rain/sleet mix today, so we will see what actually happens. Gonna try to plan meals and grocery shop today, too.

OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205
For a short while I will be away from home enjoying some time in a warmer climate. No scale, but from time to time I will step on the scale at the local grocery store fully clothed and after breakfast and coffee. A lot of DNW!
Simple Goals for this round with the hope that they turn into habits:
1. Log my food daily; try to eat cleaner and work on portion control.
2. Daily exercise; at least some movement
3. Be mindful, moment by moment.

DW has had a hard time processing the food associated with the holidays, so we had an old fashioned summer lunch of stove top green beans with potatoes carrots onions and a bit of ham. Good for a change!
Then I went out with my extended family to a place called Burger-Fi. Why did I get onion rings? I undid my good lunch.
1/3: DNW
I did well yesterday except for the key lime pie I had. DW can’t help me eat it, so I might send it to the dump. I must resist the saying, “I don’t want it to go to waste!” We never really mean that anyway, do we?
My watch died. Standard type watch. I have tried living without a watch on my wrist for about two weeks now, and I hate it. So, I ordered a smart watch. We will see if it is smarter than me.

Cookout on the pool deck yesterday. They happen about once per week here. You kick in $7 and people volunteer to arrange a nice burger and hotdog meal. There is a lady who always makes pans of brownies. !! I skipped supper but had a happy hour poolside with a couple we have gotten to know from Canada.
Smart watch… I am a google/android person. I made that decision decades ago and I’m sticking with it, much to the chagrin of just about everyone I know. I have a Pixel phone, so I got the Pixel watch. It pairs with fitbit. I am on the tip of the iceberg when it comes to knowing how to use it, but looking forward to getting my NERD on to figure it out. It looks cool.
The watch produced a graph of my sleep last night and it looks like static electricity.

Picked up some friends from the airport yesterday. They will be here with us but in a separate unit for the week. Already had some BIG laughs. That’s the good news. The bad news is how much we will eat out this week.
Should be offset with a lot of physical activity, all of it being trolled by my new watch. I chipped away at some of the watch features yesterday. One thing I am seeing is how much physical activity is involved in my so-called sleep. I am pretty sure I don’t have apnea, wife would know, but I have a chaotic sleep “graph” and it is short. It looks like a Gantt chart for the project from heck. Everything is on the critical path and after a while the whole team just quits and says “you might as well get out of bed.”. 😊

I did really well for 355 days, but the last 10 days of 2024 were a food free-for-all! I’m determined to get back to my “summer weight” of between 123-125 lbs. It’s not just about losing, it’s about changing the habits of a lifetime that keep me stuck in self-defeating cycles.

1/5: I'll be happy this round if I sneak in under my starting weight. One night of Chinese food and a whole round of consequences- was it worth it? Family party today, and food will be abundant. Last year at this time I was just starting my weight loss and motivated to eat well. That needs to remain the same.
I need to remember: The scale is only one metric for where my body is. To stay healthy, I need to eat healthfully and "days off" don't help. Would I put sludge in my car and expect it to run well?

Day:5 : Still on a NSV streak-no soda, FF, hit every goal on fitness watch and 5 bottles of water. Staying consistent 5 hours was difficult and now it’s been 5 days of this challenge (yep, already declaring it for today!) Uber-proud of that! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
Challenges: slept a little better last night but still tired today, so going to rest up. Catching up on emails and doing some other prep work so I have to resist being sedentary for too long today. My weigh-in and posting times will change and may be all over the place. I commute so I leave between 4:30 and 5 to get there on time. I do commit to posting though. I have to.
BP: Will measure later after better rested.
Market bag: I will not complete before tomorrow 😣 so setting a new goal to complete before the end of RND 284.
Heavy bag day: will be on another day TBD. Probably Wednesday morning.
Today I will rest, meal prep, and prepare mentally for the week.
@UTMom : I added in a stretch yesterday and it felt SO good!
@kristawatkins52 : Five days still here, still posting, still grinding. Proud of you girl. I hope you are proud of yourself too! I love what you said about going back to workouts. Excited to hear about your progress. Hit that reset and keep it moving. Forward and onward!
@musicsax : thank you for taking the time to post that and for understanding. I really needed that today. ♥️♥️I look forward to retirement! There is that underlying concern that I’ll get so caught up in the business of the day that I forget or a better word is neglect taking care of myself. Start ordering out, no water, holding bladder, all that crazy stuff. But this too MUST change. This concept of pouring from an empty cup til it cracks or breaks MUST GO. A colleague of mine passed out while at work several months ago. I can’t get her out of my mind. As EMT took her out, she seized. Very young. Stress is often called a silent killer. I don’t think it’s silent at all. I think we mute it. No more. Must change it all, lose all habits that never served me/us.10 -

@itladyee @kristawatkins52 @ALL the support on here is awesome and so greatly appreciated. Y’all just don’t know. So let me tell you. Twice I was about to derail. Instead, I came on here, I read your comments, I read your triumphs and challenges, and it kept me on track. So grateful God lead me here.

Comment (01/05/25):
My 3-day weight loss streak was interrupted on Friday due to a family emergency. I was on-track to lose ~ 1 lb on Friday, but a loved one needed to be taken to Urgent Care, and I was too tired at the end of the evening to go home and cook. Ended-up going to a Mexican restaurant that I have been wanting to try, and they welcomed me as a new customer with 2 complimentary shots of tequila. 1.6 lbs weight gain that day, but I bounced back in 1 day.
Note: 1/2 way through the challenge, and I've already hit my round goal. I'm not stopping, here... Onward and downward!6 -

Round 283
January 1—10, 2025
My Round 4 😊 I am a 70 year old retired RN, caregiver for my husband and my mother in ne Ohio.
HW 222 in 2017
GW 130
Goals this new year session:
1. Keep net carbs below 30
2. Keep kcal below 1200—I am only 4’11” and sedentary
3. Record ALL dietary intake
4. Lose one pound in ten days
👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE 👍👍

1/1 145.6 Happy New Year!!!!
1/2 145.8 Over in calories yesterday and did not exercise or practice my swing. ☹ Rested/slept, sky gray/gloomy, snowing off and on, and COLD! Br-r-r. It is difficult to be enthused when it is gloomy and cold. Made a list of chores for today to help keep on track. Huge issues with insurance for my mom in 2025. I will be working on that for quite some time. ☹
1/3 145.8 Snowing
1/4 145.2 Snowing, On track
1/5 144.6 I think I got my mother’s Medicare Advantage plan correct. I enrolled her in a new one in October with a start date of Jan 1. Her old one received a notice from Medicare that she was changing insurances and they cancelled her effective December 1; leaving her without insurance for a month. I asked them to continue her insurance to Jan 1 and instead, they reenrolled her. When they did that, Medicare sent the new insurance a notice that she was changing plans and they never started her. I re-enrolled her with number two on Jan 1 and was told that she would not be active until Feb 1. I contacted number one and they told me that they only renewed her until Dec 31. By now I am freaking out thinking that she would not have any insurance for TWO months. After much discussion and going up the ladder, number one will now continue her until Feb 1. I hope that does not trigger another letter from Medicare to number two. This could have turned into a catastrophe if Mom became ill or injured.

(2024 SUCCESSES AND CHALLENGES)
December Summary: I lost 6 pounds, dropped 2.1% body fat, and reduced 14 inches overall. My body water increased by 1.4%, muscle mass by 2%, and bone density by 0.8%. While I hit most of my goals this month, I found myself re-losing the same weight I’ve gained back multiple times. It’s disappointing to end the year heavier than I started, but I’ve learned a lot about what not to do and planning to approach things more strategically in 2025.

AUGUST, SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER and most of NOVEMBER spent increasingly depressed and often sugar drunk. Regained almost 30 pounds and a ridiculous amount of fat without even noticing! This level of sabotage is extreme, even for me. My biggest gift to myself will be healing the holes inside.
July Goals: Starting over 7/12 ~ lost six weeks of progress and regained 7 pounds adjusting to new third shift work schedule. They call it graveyard for a reason!!! My exercise, water and step count have all also dropped considerably. Goals this month are simply to lose as much as possible building momentum and getting back in the groove.
June Goals: Having gotten as low as 193 in both April and May, I'd like to drop below that in June. (FAIL)

MAY 1st SW: 197.3 | EW: 196.8
MAY Goals: Lose 6-8bs, 2-3 inches and 1-2% body fat ❎❎❎
May 22: I had packed some shorts to change into after swim without trying them on. They were so tight last summer, I expected the fit to be better ~ but when I put them on ... wow. I was in front of the locker room mirrors and was like omg, that's you. How long has it been since you looked/felt like that? I was spinning around looking at myself for a good 2-3 minutes, y'all, lol ~ my New #1NSV
May 4: 10 of the 20 inches lost was off my belly! No pics, no proof, lol ~ I love/hate taking photos because they've become one of my best tools. You can't lie and you can't hide. Putting myself on blast 1) creates incentive to increase effort and 2) highlights new areas to focus on. Still a long way from my ultimate goals, but its nice to see muscle memory is real! At a size 15, I haven't been this small in more than 10 years.
APRIL 1st SW: 198.2 | EW: 197.8
Goals: Lose 6-8bs, 2-3 inches and 1-2% body fat ❎❎❎
Lost less than a pound, 1.25 inches combined on arms and legs | regained 0.2% body fat and 1/2 inch back on my belly. Starting dietary 200-400 calorie deficit and Intermittent Fasting 18-24 hrs. Breaking fast differently, including more protein, and continuing to look for new ways to increase step count and add more strength in May.
Reaching onederland (March 13th) meant the end of 10+ years and up to 80 pounds!! gained and relost too many times to count. Yo-yoing is the main reason for so much body fat!!! Determined not to continue to self-sabotage ... I need a new target!! If I should lose an additional 8% body fat to reach the "standard" for my age, height and sex ~ and up to 15% more to reach excellent ~ that's @ least another 8-15 months of work before I can begin to relax and think maintenance.
January 1st - April 1st, I've lost 17 pounds and a total of 20.8 inches from 11 areas. 🥳 Thrilled to see my hard work reversing prediabetes and years of physical damage. Getting leaner and stronger and chair dancing proud of myself about it!! 57 and hormonal, it's taken longer than expected and a much rougher road than my youth.6 -

1/2 231 ~ 🍎💧 No movement. I stayed under calorie goal, stopped eating at 7:30 and fasted today for 16.5 hours. 50 ounces of water down. I'm good.
1/3 227.4 ~🚶🏾♀️🍎💧⬇️ Now that's what I'm talking about! That's what eating and drinking like a normal person will do for you. I didn't hit my protein and was over just a bit on carbs but within calorie range.
1/5 225.6 ~🚶🏽🍎💧⬇️ I know this won't last, at least not at this rate...but it's fun right now. Seriously though....I gained 7 of these pounds in December, so I "expect" them to disappear almost as quickly as they came.Water weight. The proof is the number of times I got up to go pee the last 2 nights
1/6 226.0 ~ 🚶🏽🍎✅💧~ ok with this number especially with the results of the lat couple of days. Also was at the top end of the calorie range so fair is fair! Someone asked about the wind when I was walking outside....they hit the nail on the head! I forgot about the "hawk" and it was not windy yesterday. It was actually a bright, sunshiny, cold day!

F66, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean P:E (ProteinG> (Cg+Fg) A clean/whole food WOE- Track macros, all fitness and NSVs. I’ve had an unhealthy relationship with food my entire life.

📣BHAG Restated: My FIRST BHAG is to hit 128xlbs on this #HSF journey and maintain a “+ or -“ 2lb range @128lbs by 1/10/2025. I want a sustainable #HSF BHAG that’s achievable with hard work & determination.

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
👇🏻January Level Up (Down)
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of January:
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)!!!!

1/1/2025! 💤 by 10PM, but up at 3AM. Slept poorly. Protein 98g. Body sore from two days of pushing. Cortisol high. No TMI for DAYS. Holding pattern?Systems will hopefully kick into gear ASAP. Will take off 🏋️♀️today. Sound negative? I’m not. I’m ready for a great day -just waiting for 5AM Carolyn to rise & shine.
Annual trip to Waffle House this morn with DS, DDIL & DGS. I love this tradition. I get bacon & eggs every year and will do so again this morning. I plan on doing more reflection later this afternoon. A nap?
Thought about changing my 10day goal to 129.x but I feel like my body isn’t “calibrated” yet from these last two+ overly emotional weeks. I’m sticking to 128.x and focusing on process.
Happy New Year to this wonderful group of brave warriors! 2025 is our year of growth, strength, peace & health!
1/2 130.8 All the emotions since Thanksgiving have caught up with me. I was a zombie yesterday. Hit a wall. Little sleep = No motivation. It is what it is and I know I’ll recover soon. Ate @ maintenance and hit macros. Spent and sluggish. No movement. Since I’m naturally an introvert, non-stop social activity for a month+ took a toll. Nice visit at Waffle House but came home tired and couldn’t nap. Couch potato to bring on the new year! Will be better today. 💤7 hrs.
Today:🤸🏼🎾⏱️🏋️♀️🚶♀️💗
PS Toward the end of January we will have an unsettling family situation (tough-love), and I’m already starting to become overwhelmed. Maintaining a healthy mindset is my challenge this month… I made commitments to myself for January based upon ignoring this situation, and now I just hope to get through it. Not sharing this for hugs or concern… Simply sharing because it may impact my ability to follow through. Emotional life-changing decisions can impact our ability to take care of ourselves… Perhaps not… Maybe this past year has equipped me for this. I just have to get over this hill, one step at a time. Putting crap in my mouth or implementing couch potato status doesn’t solve anything.
I am thankful that I have adopted healthy habits & this group to keep me present & thankful. Time to summon 5AM Carolyn. More often than not, I forget God is in 💯control.
“I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me”
1/3 131.8 Out to dinner last night with siblings… Systems still out of whack. Ordered smart, hit macros but ate more & later than usual. Horrible sleep! Maybe 4 hrs? Hubby OOT till Sunday. (Much easier in the kitchen!) Played 🎾 for the first time yesterday in 3 wks. (& it showed!) Sore! Skipped 🏋️♀️⏱️. Today, playing 🎾again and will be with DGS this afternoon. 🏋️♀️⏱️🥩 💦💦💦! I shall ENGAGE every ounce of my being to make this a 🏆day. Onward!
1/4 131.8 I was all over the place yesterday. Today I will remain mindful and present. [ENGAGED]. No commitments to myself because I’m headed to purchase a new phone & watch and it will probably take all day. Yearning to stay positive.

1/5 🏆Hit all three nutrition marks. Took another day off from movement except managed 🚶♀️7k & 🏋️♀️15 min. Not enough to earn the “emoji” but were NSVs nonetheless. And oh, the 7-min workout too! Sleeping better! New phone and watch will arrive Tuesday. 💪🏻😎
DEEP AGAIN: I managed a great deal of positive prayer & reflection yesterday… January tends to be a mental 🎢 . I start off with high hopes, slip into melancholy then finish with gratitude. (Both my parents died this time of year 13mos apart…) It’s a familiar pattern. But yesterday I was able to catch my thought patterns and turn them around. I credit 🙏 & this health journey of forming new habits … I recognize that I have the luxury of being able to stop my life and gather my thoughts. Having the choice of being proactive versus reactive. The majority don’t have that luxury. Life for most is blasting through moment to moment with responsibilities and staying afloat.
I was also kind to myself yesterday. That’s a REAL win! I looked over my journals, and I need to celebrate that January is usually a strong nutrition and activity month for me… but It’s always a mental WAR. I’m not exaggerating here. WAR. I tend not to self-comfort with food or another vice… I just tend to FREEZE. I become motionless. I am making slow progress, and with that I am very pleased. Today I want to 🏋️♀️. Supposed to be a rain out, so I will be creative indoors. Or simply put on rain-gear and get it done!
I have even thought about my “ceiling “…. Is this mental WAR all about reaching a “false ceiling” and not pushing through?!?!!! Is this an unbeknownst mental sabotage? Hmmmmm….
Onward!
I finally read through R282 & R283. I want to thank everyone for your encouragement to me and JGMTD warriors. Grief, stalls, losses, gains, many daily victories &NSVs. We have a wonderfully supportive group & wisdom abounds. A plethora of “kernels” to keep close! I will stay current. I’ve got plenty of motivation after reading through the rounds!
😎💪🏻❤️

Did not find enlightenment!!! It was fun but yes we are all idiots.
They could only clear enough ice for groups of 10 at a time.
And yes I am a ridiculous person who finds any event a reason to wear a costume. It’s just the energy I bring.
You are a hoot! Glad you had fun! LOVE the costume!
@cyndiemi I hope your insurance issue is behind you. What a nightmare!4 -
I enjoy reading everyone’s posts with my morning coffee.

I’m glad y’all enjoyed my plunge update. Honestly the bravest part is putting on a bathing suit in January! I’m not someone who constantly needs to be doing new things but I do enjoy a bit of the “why the heck not?” attitude in life.10
