    @_JeffreyD_ I make something called "egg roll in a bowl". It's so yummy! It's a nice low carb dish. I wonder if it is the same thing?


    WELCOME TO ALL THE NEWBIES. It's great to have you join us!

    @everyone Do you see the new changes coming to MFP posted this morning. No more BBCode! They are taking away our ability to color in Fonts. Other changes too! This old Gal will probably struggle to learn the new way to create posts. It sounds like it is going to be dull and flavorless. How much more are we going to lose with MFP??? #disappointed!

    02/20-NS-(Trend Weight: NS)- NS=Not sharing. Quite honestly I just feel like the guy from Disney’s movie “Up”. I’m holding All the Balloons and I just keep drifting Up. I’m not in a very good mood today after seeing the colorless dull and complicated-looking changes coming to MFP on March 4th. I won’t be changing my post format until after that. I need to see what it all means, but this old gal doesn’t adapt well or learn technical challenges very easily. What they are giving is probably nice but what they are taking will leave us flavorless and not very individual. What more must they take? Well, anyway, good luck this round everyone. Time to start getting ready for Spring!

    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 288: 147 (66.7 kg)

    2/20- 147.5 (66.9) Another swing the wrong way. I don't know if TMI is to blame, TOM, too much sodium, too many carbs, or what. But I do know if I stay the course, it'll eventually correct.

    ROUND 287 MINI GOALS: 👟 Minimum 5500 steps | 💧 Drink at least 1250 ml of water | 🥑 Eat healthy (score 1-10)

    🌟 HOW DO I CALCULATE MY SCORE?
    I convert every mini goal to a score of 10. For example, if I take 7500 steps and my mini goal is 6000 for the day, I score a 12.5/10 for that mini goal. If I take 6000 steps exactly, it's 10/10. If I only take 4000, then I only get a 6/10. Then I take the average of al my mini goals rated out of /10. This average score is linked to a grading scale of 🔵 Fantastic | 🟢 Good | 🟡 So-so | 🔴 Bad. Depending on the round I might change what exactly classifies als a fantastic (ex. a score above 11), good, and so on...

    Today is a new day and hopefully a new start in turning this ship around! I’m really not sure where I left my downward mobility last round, but it sure wasn’t with a lower number on the scale. Like @judefit1 said, it’s time for a change in attitude! Welcome to all the newcomers this round!

    @astroamy - Oh yeah! I've noted your creeping down, down, down in weight with hardly a bobble. Losing 40 pounds is life changing in so many ways. I hate to call out numbers lest I upset the mental boat, but you've been sailing through. It's inspiring!

    OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016.) I was actually at 250 in 2011 or so…
    OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
    Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205


    Simple Goals for this round with the hope that they turn into habits:

    1. Log my food daily; eat cleaner and work on portion control.
    2. Daily exercise; at least some movement.
    3. Be mindful of triggers around food. Take a pass on mindless snacking on small “harmless” high carb food laying around. It’s death by a thousand paper cuts.

    DW made something for dinner yesterday that was so good it had to be bad. “Deconstructed Eggroll.” MFP has several options for logging it so I tried to find the one closest to her recipe.

    I actually drove to the gym yesterday just to walk the track. I tried walking outside, but there is just no will-power there. Too cold. To relieve the boredom of walking a track that is 7 laps to a mile, I just made the track a portion of my circuit throughout the building. I am sure the folks in the cardio rehab, the treadmills, the free weights and the exercise bikes think I am lost because I keep wandering by every 4 minutes or so.
