Just Give it 10 days Round 288

_JeffreyD_

Male: 67
6’-2”
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.

Yesterday was spent running from one calendar appointment to the next. Five of them. On the bright side, no time to stuff my face. 😊

2/22: 232.0
Yesterday, looking back it seemed like an all-carb day. But when I see the log, I am surprised by the amount of protein. Still too many carbs. I am inspired by this group to NOT quit.

2/23: 231.0
Pretty much stayed on plan yesterday. I ate reasonably and got a walk in on a very nice (low wind) day.

As the days get longer and warmer I am looking forward to getting out on my new ebike. Why did I buy an ebike? There are a few reasons and a couple of them are good. 😊

1. It’s the latest thing. HA!
2. My old bike, while in decent shape for 30 years old, was getting close to replacement. At my age I want to get something to last the rest of my life. (that sounds morbid) I think ebike fits the bill
3. When going on a ride with DW, there was a BIG difference between my endurance/speed and hers. She got an ebike two years ago and flipped the script. She is the speck in the distance now. I loved it and so did she. My new bike will not result in me leap-frogging her. It will even us out.
4. We occasionally take bikes with friends on trips to scenic locations (Colorado, Michigan, Missouri.) Lots to see and lots of terrain. We want to do this more, not less, as we get older. The more help we get, the more we can see on longer rides. Colorado for example involves mountains and thin air and altitude which translates to short rides. Our friends are using ebikes now too. (except for my over the top friend Tom who climbs mountains with a standard bike. Even he has talked about getting one.)
5. Our bikes are the kind that you need to pedal for the motor to kick in. I won’t be able to buzz around like a motorcycle. The motor can be adjusted or turned off as well for a variety of workout possibilities.
6. And, speaking of weather, the ebike will take some excuses off the table. I really dislike biking in the wind. (first world problem) Wind will not be as much of a factor in deciding to go for a spin.

I don’t understand the uptick. Calories were a bit over, but exercise was great. I did get out for a nice long ride yesterday. This is how excited I was to get outside and ride. I set up my Strava for the ride, put my phone in the cradle on my handlebars and forgot to push the start button. I didn’t notice until after the ride and I went to the phone to check my stats. ALSO, I wanted to use the bike exercise function on my watch to check my heart rate. Forgot that too.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

207.4 Ending weight RND 287

60+ Female using trend weight

I gained 1.6 lbs avg associated with an unexpected surgery where I had to stop exercising. The sad thing was that I also stopped tracking for the most part. So it was a wasted round. Well I guess I learned that just because I couldn't exercise didn't mean I couldn't track. That was on me. So now I'm back at it. Recommitted. My goal this week is "go to the gym three times" this week.

🐸I will keep the analogy of boiling frog in my head🐸

Hi, I'm Charissa.

Thank you, @musicsax, for getting us ready for round 288

I got distracted in 287, didn't even realize it was the end of the round. I'm struggling with most everything...so i need to focus on one thing at a time until I get to where I need to be. I'm not happy with my progress (or lack thereof) this year.

Q: What will be different in 2025 vs all the other times?
A: Change in my mindset
A: Being mindful and engaged
A: Addressing the elephant in the room!
A: No excuses
A: DETERMINED AND ENGAGED


Overall Goals for 2025
Lose weight in the kitchen ⚖️, get fit in the gym🏋🏾‍♀️

Note: These are pretty much my same goals from 2023 and 2024, I've made some great progress but now it's time to knock this list out! My goals are SMART - just not including all the details here:

Goal#1 - Calories - Aim and plan for 1200; allow 400 just in case for a total of 1600. **Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
Goal#2 - Wine/Alcohol Reduction - 85% Dry January or better ** 🚫🍷 Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!
Goal #3 - Water - Minimum 50 ounces - Maximum 100 (only if consumed before 6pm) H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
Goal #4 - Exercise - 6 days a week (Cardio, Core, Stretching, Strength Training) ~ 🏋🏾‍♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Goal #5 - Self Care (Reading, Journaling, Monthly recap, Learning, Pampering)
Goal #6 - Organization and Declutter (Finish unpacking)
** To get to 100%

@cyndiemi ~ sending {{{{hugs}}}} your way. Hope your Mom is better.

@deepwoodslady ~ so sorry for your loss of your friend Diana. My condolences to you and the family. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Take some time to grieve.

@acsmyth1 and @care180 ~ looking good . Great results this round!

@musicsax "health is wealth" It sure is!!! Great motivation for the week!

@pettycoatjunction ~ usually, my DH is counter productive for me but I got ahead of him yesterday. I got my walk in early (it was "warm" (relatively speaking) outside. I came back and he wanted to make drinks, I said NO, I'm not drinking, but you can....he didn't. He then wanted to watch TV. I was ok to spend another 3 hours on the couch since I had gotten my exercise in! Don't get me wrong, quality time spent together is a good thing but just need to be prepared!

@chapter_3 ~ you have a busy day ahead! Sounds like you're are tuned into your body and listening! You WILL finish strong!!

@grindjourney ~ nice progress!!

@judefit1 ~ glad your DB looks great and is in good spirits and that you were able to spend time together.

@skyleen75 ~ It's hard to make wise choices when you're tired and run down. Onward!

@quiltingjaine ~ Welcome back!! Sorry to hear your cruise was not great Hope DH is feeling better.

@Blueberries59 ~ enjoy the zoo!

Wishing everyone a successful remaining round 288!! There's still time to make a difference!!! You've got this!!!

I don't know if I simply ate too much or if something I ate didn't agree with me since I woke up with the full intention to go to the gym and after drinking my nuun (as I do every single gym morning) I felt so nauseous and lightheaded so I passed out on the couch with the dogs to not disturb BF. I do feel a bit better and I was able to eat some very plain eggs for some kind of sustenance so I'm glad. Hopefully it'll pass soon.

Previous Day's Comments

2/20 - Wow, I didn't realize I had missed two days of checking in! Yesterday was very hectic with the cold snap that blew in. I worked from the living room with a fire going and didn't bring my personal computer with to check in which is challenging - going from 3 large screens to one tiny laptop. Today, as much as I'd love to have a fire going, I have a dental appointment this afternoon, right after lunch, and I won't dare leave a fire going, or even hot coals, while going 45 minutes away. Despite my alarm jolting me from a very realistic dream and knowing that it is miserably cold and I want nothing more than to just stay in bed cuddled up with the pups, I dragged myself to the gym. It was a good workout overall. One more of Coach's workouts and I'm done! On to my own program next week. I need to put my workout in one of the apps I'm trialing so I can keep track of it since it's currently only written down on a sheet of paper. I also need to plan out one more dinner for next week so I can finish off my grocery list for tomorrow morning. I'm also trying out an app recommended by one of the gym's trainers for macro tracking (called MacroFactor) and it will adjust calories and macros based on inputs. I've synced it so my weight gets automatically tracked and I'm trying different configurations to see if I can get my steps to sync as well. Technology is hard sometimes. Here's to hoping this works!
2/21 - I don't know if I'm simply dropping bloat/water weight or if my body has caught up and what was a 10% bulk is now a maintenance, if not a slight deficit. This is okay, though, since I was planning to drop into a maintenance on Monday so I could then begin a cut so it feels like I'm simply ahead of the game. Today I've only tracked using my new MacroFactor app to get used to it. I'm well over on carbs already, though I suppose I could adjust my dinner to account for that. I need more fat and protein - a lot more protein. I may give in and make a protein shake since I'm also behind on my water intake and that will knock out two concerns in one solution. Feeling good. I still need to input my new workout plan into an app for next week so I'm not trying to remember everything or losing my paper (and can track weights/reps for future reference). I'll do that this weekend at some point. Likely later since BF is going to have a late night since he's about 4 hours away and has an interview between 3-5 tonight (meaning he won't leave until likely closer to 6 maybe 7 after documenting). I'll probably be in bed before he gets home unless things change. Especially as there's a potential for ice tonight starting after about 5pm between where he is and our house so he'll be having to take things slow and careful.
2/22 - We had date night last night. It was more of a late lunch/early dinner since the place we went to didn't open until 3. It's our favorite restaurant that closed a couple years ago and has since built their own building (rather than rent) and reopened the end of January. We've been wanting to go but life has been so hectic, especially with BF's travel. I knew I'd be up today and that's okay. I've gone ahead and set my goal on my MacroFactor app to losing 0.5lb/week and it'll adjust and improve it's guidance week to week. It has me at 1875 calories which is a steep drop off, but it wanted me to drop down to 1675 calories and losing 0.8lb/week. I'd rather ease in if I can. I still need to input my workouts into an app which I'll do once I post this, so I'm prepared for tomorrow morning. Overall, I'm feeling good. Behind on water today but focused on catching up!

Round 288
Feb 20 – March 1, 2025

62 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).

SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
GW Maintaining between 124 - 126

Continuing to figure out maintaining, and to work on best nutrition and exercise.

History:

Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, a two grandsons. We have two parents, 87(mother), 85(MIL) still with us, and I have logically been needing to help them more as they age. I got my act in gear during COVID, somewhat inspired by NOT becoming my parents. I lost 30 lbs and was exercising daily. Unfortunately, I am an “all in or not” person. Hubby and I seeing our family home and downsizing distractions, plus medical incident with my father and all their new needs, became an excuse (father has since passed and I am DPOA, Personal representative AKA executor, trustee, and oversee the majority of my mother’s care). A year and a half later, I gained 25 lbs and lost all my athletic improvements. I need to figure out balance and how to make health be a daily priority for life!

Day/Weight/Comment

So I am starting to compare my paths to these dates in 2023. In January 2023, I started higher than this year, yet was at a fantastic weight by May. This year, I did not use January well, but when comparing the two years, if I get on track NOW, when I return up north just before May, I should be in a decent place. For comparison, I am 3.8 lb lower, and in the equivalent 2023 round I had managed to lose 2 pounds. Given my January sloppiness, I could see I was starting to slip into the “I can’t achieve it, so why do it” mode. While yes, I want that lower weight number, but I really have to get that focus more firmly onto health numbers. Also, as I futz up, how do I participate well here? Yes, I know the answer, but it you get my drift, it is hard to do what one should do. (Note: I did not mean to post this paragraph un-edited yesterday. Realizing now that I did.)

2.20 – 136.0 Yesterday was interesting. Did my now rather typical 5 mile walk – 4 as a group (their pace), and one alone(my pace). Should have been a gym day, but was feeling Monday’s first workout, and now that I am having my first day with a trainer on Friday, I want to make sure that I am not in so much pain Friday that I cannot work with her, so I skipped. My planned restaurant meal, did not go as planned, due to the restaurant. They apologized lots, but not sure I will return. I did track everything and it appears I faired ok. Dealing with lunch restaurant today, and have already pre-tracked.

2/21 – 135.8 Yesterday was solid, 5 miles walked (4 and 1 like before), tracked everyting. I stuck to my plan for the restaurant (poké and seltzer with lime). Today, I have my first of 10 sessions with a personal trainer. I am here until almost the end of April, so hoping to having done some learning during this time. Facing a restaurant AGAIN tonight for dinner. Not pre-tracking for this one, but I will track as I make my selections at the restaurant. Heading out for my 5 miles shortly.

2/22 – 136.2 Yesterday’s activity was great. Diet prior to the restaurant was good. Restaurant was borderline. Went in with an uncertain plan. Hubby wanted to share the tuna tartare appetizer, which kind of pushed me away from a tuna tataki appetizer as an entre. I had a decent number of calories available so I splurged on the “buff and blu” fried oysters. I figured 6 fried oysters would be a treat, but could work. The tuna came, that was great. (oh, my gin and tonic was strong!) Then the oysters came. It was a platter of something like 14 or 16 of them!!! Argh! I had 10 of them. Hubby had the rest. But hubby got me to try a very small slice of his three pigs pizza (about the size of a slice of bread and I skipped the crust). Now I know I am over (I am tracking on my phone and seeing it grow). Then, what the heck, we ordered a bread pudding to share. It was literally 6” x 3” x 2+”. I had about 1/3. I’ve tracked everything (except that slice of pizza – too much brain function). Oh, and I only had ½ my gin and tonic.

Now for the GOOD! Did my morning 5 miles. My 5th (solo) mile was my fastest pace in 2025. My personal trainer moved me up almost 3 hours on short notice, but I got over there in time. I really liked her, liked her methodology, and I think I will get a lot out of her guidance these next few months. I don’t hurt too bad this morning. Oh, and the exciting thing is that IN HER OPINION my muscles are going to respond quickly. Her comment was how good mu muscles were for not having worked out in two years. I replied, it’s been since before COVID (AKA over 5 years). Next session is Monday.

Not worrying about the scale uptick. Hubby is away Sun/Mon and I VOW (you hear it now) to not have ice cream as entire meals while he is gone. I also won’t be facing dining out until at least Wednesday I would guess.

2/23 – 136.6 Shoot! Hoping this is temporary from my over salty dinner. Yesterday, I also did a solo walk of 6.5 miles at an elevated pace, just not my fastest. Maybe I have fluid retention also going on from beating up my muscles these past few days. Calories were tracked yesterday, but I did use some of those burned during my walk. Should still have been some deficit. Today, hubby heads off for two days with the car. Consequently, when I go to the gym today and tomorrow, I will be riding my bike (only about 4 miles round trip).

2/24 – 136.6 Walked 5.2 miles, biked 3 miles, 1+ hr weight training. Tracked everything though above what it should be. Let’s see how this shakes out.

02/21-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)-

02/22-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)-

02/23-197.2-(Trend Weight: 195.2)- My last recorded weight was 195.8 with a trend weight of 195.1 . Way up. It’s peculiar, when I was a younger person in my 20’s and 30’s, if I was upset or grieving I would lose weight. Food was of no interest. Now that I’m older (in my mid 60’s) food has become a crutch and the emotional eating is shocking. I’m not surprised by this weight gain right now. I’ll work on it as best as I can. Too close to losing Onederland!

02/24-195.4-(Trend Weight: 195.4)- I was finally able to take my Lasix yesterday as I was home for most of the day. That explains the extra raise in weight the days before and the drop in weight showing today. It’s so hard to gauge what is really happening when you retain fluids in heart problems and require the script. No TMI today or this may have been an even bigger drop. But when, my friends, WHEN, WHEN, WHEN will I actually lose some REAL fat and make some REAL progress? It’s an unseasonably warm day today in Northern Michigan. I expect that some of the snow will melt which is great. The roofs can’t take much more without collapsing! The professional roof shovelers have been keeping pretty busy lately!

@_JeffreyD_ awesome news on the ebike! I have one for hauling my kids around and I love it. DH uses one to commute to work. They are great for extending range, flattening hills, calming the wind, etc. Enjoy!

@astroamy congrats on the enormous milestone!! So impressed by your dedication!

Hi again, I'm Amanda! 5'2" 40F in Virginia.

RSW: 124.8
RGW: 123.8

Non-scale goals (tracked for prior day)
🏃🏻‍♀️ Run at least 20 miles
🏋🏻‍♀️ Strength train 5/10 days

Past days' monologues:

2/20 - 124.8 🏃🏻‍♀️ (6.2 miles) 🏋🏻‍♀️ Can't believe this round is going to take us into March! I'm hoping to have a more consistent round this time. My oldest has a snow day again, which I can't really understand since it stopped snowing at 4pm yesterday. I guess we just don't have great infrastructure in place around here to get to the far reaches of the county. We went grocery shopping this morning for a few planned meals and my youngest's birthday party meatball subs for Saturday so I feel prepared for the next few days. DS has a friend over now so he should be entertained enough for me to squeeze an interval run on the treadmill in. We're having our bathroom remodeled so it's a terrible time to have kids home nearly every day! Happy to not see any snow in the 10-day forecast at the moment. We really need to get back into our routine.

2/21 - 123.0. Nice whoosh closer to where I briefly have been. Yesterday I went to get on the treadmill and my body did not want to do it. I tried to take the dogs for a walk and got too cold and turned around. Found out today I have strep throat again! I just had it in December. Now I'm doing 2 weeks of antibiotics instead of 10 days, and I'll go back March 11 for a throat culture to make sure nothing lingers. This winter is just relentless with the illnesses.

I read the first bit of Atomic Habits by James Clear last night and I thought of this group a lot. I know this book has been out for a number of years but for whatever reason I picked it up last night. He focuses on the idea that rather than choosing how you want to be (ex. at a specific goal weight, pants size, etc.), you should be choosing WHO you want to be (a fit and/or healthy person). He used an example of someone who channeled what they thought a person at an optimal weight would do. At each decision she made, she asked herself, "what would a healthy person do?" It's about minor improvement each day, not suddenly waking up and being a fit/healthy person. I thought it was a nice reminder and I'd share it here. I can tell from all of our non-number goals in this group that we're already doing this to some extent - we know we need to drink our water, work out, etc., to achieve the end goal, but it might be simpler to frame it as our future selves rather than our future state.



2/22 - 123.0 🏃🏻‍♀️ (1.7 miles) 🏋🏻‍♀️ The scale reflects pretty much what happened yesterday. I went slightly overboard with sweets but probably not far above maintenance. Love when the scale and I are in agreement! DH loves pancakes and bacon to kick off the weekend so I’m not off to an amazing start, but I’m planning on lifting and going on kind of a long run so I think I’ll be okay. We canceled DS’s family party today due to my strep throat, so at least I won’t have the brownies I’d planned to bake!

2/20 - 124.8 🏃🏻‍♀️ (6.2 miles) 🏋🏻‍♀️
2/21 - 123.0 🏃🏻‍♀️ (1.7 miles) 🏋🏻‍♀️
2/23 - 124.2 🏃🏻‍♀️ (4 miles) 🏋🏻‍♀️

2/24 - 123.8. Yesterday was a rest day. I did end up doing some yard work, but that's all as far as activity goes. Not off to a great start today, but I'm about to head out for an interval run. Just wanted to quickly check in for accountability!

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

JamesClear “New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

I need to STAY ENGAGED because I’m the DRIVER not the passenger in this life.

2/20 At sea. Up on Lido having coffee. Going to “Sea Day Brunch” this morning. It was not great.
2/21 Horrible headache. Had coffee and went back to the cabin because my headache wasn’t better. Barely got into the bathroom before I lost the coffee
2/22 Ensenada
2/23 HOME! Carl has caught a cold and been asleep since he walked in the door! My Garmin with a 2 month old battery died so I have no tracked steps since we left on 2/8!
2/24 139.0 Very pleased with this after a 2 week cruise. Only a 1.5# gain. I had a cocktail every night which I know isn’t great for the body but you know they aren’t loaded with alcohol. Thanks to salad it was easy to get veg and Guy’s Burgers (protein)- no bun, no fries. The buffet food was just odd and the desserts were pretty tasteless and many were very dry. DH has a cold and has been asleep almost constantly since we walked into the house. Thankfully DD#2 picked us up at the airport and got the luggage into the house. (Her DH is dealing with a kidney stone and having rotator cuff surgery on Friday!)
