    @stephanj well said!!! It’s crazy when you can look at a day and say “oh if I had just made a different choice in that one moment I would have a different result”

    Female 5’1” Age 75 years 

    HWE 197.0 (2/2008)

    Weight on 1/17/17 174.5

    OGW 137 (set by WW 2008, WW goal 1985 was 126) UGW was 125 (HS weight)

    1/1/25  139.5

    Comments pertain to previous day

    SW RND 292 134.0

    4/1  134.0 still no TMI sheesh. Nearly through the last messages from last round all of a sudden I need to log in! This is ridiculous. Now I seem to not be able to do that! If this post appears, I have been successful. 

    4/2   134.5  In my opinion, this is ridiculous. I have been eating super low carb (under 20g total) but struggling to get enough protein without going over my fat macro. Yesterday afternoon I decided to add protein powder to my shake but I drank it hours after I normally eat. Maybe that’s why I’m up? FINALLY had TMI so we’ll see what tomorrow brings. 

    4/3   133.0  WOW!  I knew I was full of it!  LOL I’m happy with this, VERY HAPPY. I changed my macros a couple of days ago but have come up short on protein until yesterday. I added a scoop of protein powder to 1/2 of my already high protein shake and drank that while I fixed dinner for DH. I ate some pieces of chicken while I cooked and had about 1/4 cup of “eggroll in a bowl” at the table with him while he ate. Today he’s going to lunch with blind friend. He made a distressing confession to me last night. He thinks he is going to have to stop driving soon. 

    4/4  133.5 Okay with this but wish we weren’t meeting friends at Golden Corral this afternoon! I plan to drink my shake before we leave the house. Hopeful that it will curb my eating. I plan to get a salad or veg and maybe a beef patty or baked fish. 

    *I’m also glad DH is considering giving up driving. I had asked him a year or so ago if he would stop if I told him it was necessary and he had said he would. We shall see what happens.

    4/5  133.5 GC was good. I got a hush puppy but it was awful, so I didn’t eat it. I didn’t even look at desserts. Small salad and lots of protein - skipped my favorite item (fried chicken) and got a hamburger patty (no bun), small piece of pot roast from which I had removed the gravy.

    Re: "I have fallen so far off track that I feel I am starting from scratch. Instead of being angry at that, I am going to embrace it. I have restarted many times before. I am strong and capable of thriving in a new environment. I am capable of trying when it gets hard, of building my own scaffolding and structure, of catching myself before I fall."

    I love this attitude and am going to embrace it in my own life too! Thanks for the inspiration!

    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 292(my 222nd). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.

    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

    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.

    EW RND 291 – 139.6

    SW RND 292 139.6

    4/1 DNW – spent last night at MIL’s bedside, trying to keep eating healthy, exercise out the window. Using yesterday’s number as my start weight; lost 1.8 pound last round.

    4/2 138.4 (trend 140.2) MIL finally drifted away in the early hours, on her 88th birthday!! We suspected that she would despite the nurses & care staff telling us they doubted she would, we know her better!! Again, no exercise & very little sleep in the last 36 hours, now to sort all the arrangements etc.

    4/3 140 (trend 140.2) guessing this is from the earlier 2 days inactivity? 7.53 miles walked yesterday, perfect food day, caught up on sleep - solid 10 hours 19 mins!

    4/4 138.4 (trend 139.9) - no structured walking, DD came to spend a few hours with us, cleared out MIL's room at the care home followed by some hours with BIL & partner to sort out what was wanted before funeral directors visit this morning.

    4/5 138.4 (trend 139.7) another busy day, Registrars office & also a walk to Funeral Directors & back to get 6.83 miles walk in.

    4/6 138.8 (trend 139.6) 13.97 miles walked with DH, did us both so good, reminisced & did lots of talking, sat and had a picnic in the countryside bathed in the spring sunshine. Life is good!

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 292
    April 1 – 10, 2025

    SW: 131.2

    4/1 – 132.0 Yes, up, but ok with it. Last night, I went on a mini bender. Knew I was doing it, and allowed it. Today is a new day. My planned goal for round 292 was to get into the 131s. So was actually there yesterday. Going to target a number like 131 for end of round. Today is session #6 with the trainer. We are having gaps in our schedule, but I am ok with this as right now I am seeking education more than being “trained”.

    4/2 – 132.6 This up is actually a surprise. Moving on. There are 8 more weigh-ins to get back to my starting number, with which I would be very happy. Today is association cocktail party by the pool. Yup, my next hurdle. Gym was good yesterday. Continuing to learn, but having to monitor my body parts. Yesterday, triggered left knee, but I stopped the activity immediately. Ribcage is improving, and black eye fading. :) Leaving for my walk in 3 minutes.

    4/3 – 132.6 Diet was a mess by the end of the day yesterday. Did my morning walk, but left knee acted up on first lap. Shook it off and did two more (5 miles). Knee initially acted up on leg press at the gym Tuesday. I think that particular leg press machine is an issue for me as I have tried it twice. First time set off right knee. Second time the left. Good news about my weight is it does appear that this is my knew “high”, which is definitely better than the highs of two months ago.

    4/4 – 132.2 My number where I spent most of round 291. Knee still wonky. Did no walk and no gym yesterday, so a rare nothing day. Diet numbers looked good. Today is gym with trainer again (will avoid knees), AND dining out AGAIN. Believe it or not, I am starting to find all the eating out and social food burdensome. But I am here in the keys for less than 3 more weeks.


    4/5 – 132.4 This morning I am actually grateful for such a number. Day started well. Pre-tracked my plan. Went to the gym and did my hour with the trainer emphasizing education. Our whole workout was no machines and man what a workout. Get home, and it is now 1:30. Our friends cancelled dinner with us, but we decide to go anyhow. Great. Plan is still good. I plan my order as tracked, and hubby asks about splitting the conch fritters with my. I figured two little blobs would be untracked, but I would still not be “over”. These things came and they were the size of oranges. Argh. Ate my two. Dinner comes and I will up early, go I end up taking half my fish home (a little compensation). Then, just as we are asking for the check, we get a text from neighbors that as a thank you (another story), they just left fresh baked chocolate chip cookies on the doorstep. Soooooo, we get home, and I have one. Now mind has shifted gears. I proceed to eat a second. Then I go tp the refrigerator and start eating my leftovers, I was thinking about getting into the freezer too for frozen treats. Crazy how “nothings” can trigger me. Today is a new day. I overslept, but will catch my walking from on the second lap. Here we go.

    4/6 – 132.6 A disappointment. Was good/under on daily calories. Did my 5 miles in the morning despite starting 30 minutes late.

    4/7 –
