SW RND 292: 167.2
Starting from the ground up 🌱
Super proud of myself for resisting Friday night alcohol! Allowed myself a few chocolate chips as a treat. Really liking this ten day format it’s a lot less intimidating to take it in little chunks like this.
Still getting over the flu a bit. I hope to start incorporating more exercise next week so I can get my energy back.

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!

🐰 🐰 🐰 🐰 🐰04/05-194.2- (Trend Weight: 195.1) I’m back and all caught up on reading the posts from round 291 and 292. Thanks you all for so many prayers and well wishes. I am starting with my last known weight on 3/31 which happened to be at the end of the last round. I am showing a loss as of today from that but did gain last round. I’m not sure why there has been a loss over the past couple of days since it’s been all restaurant food and bad snacks at the hotel. I think maybe it was because I was having stress related stomach issues the whole time? Heat is still not completely resolved here but they promised today. The main thing is that they continue to need more parts which are not readily available here for furnaces so it keeps being a waiting game. If this persists, I’ll have to head south again and look for hotels again. Last night was a nightmare sleeping here, so cold. Today you can physically feel that it is warmer outside than in the house even though it continues to be a cold Michigan winter day. I appreciate continued prayers for my family including my adult children affected by this disaster in our area. Please pray for our entire community. Some will be without power for up to a month!

Hi all! I hope it's ok to start late :) I started on my healthy eating plan on Thursday and I am determined to stick to my plan.
I am moving to a different country in less than 4 months for school and I really want to get a good start on this change. I have been in such a bad place lately and I need to get my life back on track!
Goals for this round:
- Plan my food every night for the next day.
- Move around more (which right now is probably about 10 minutes of walking on the spot)
- Drink at least 3 litres of water
- Track food honestly
- Refuse to be downtrodden if the scales don't show a lower number on a single day

🎷 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.
Spoiler Warning
I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life.

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.

04/06 DNW Giving myself some space from the scale after over eating pizza on Friday night. DH swayed me to deviate from my plan by ordering pizza and wings but I’m the one who ate four slices over the course of the evening.I didn’t even really enjoy it, I was just really hungry from a highly active day. Lesson learned. Again. Stick to my plan.
I spent yesterday organizing a house a dear friend inherited over a year ago. He lives several hours away and the whole process has felt more like a burden than a windfall. I’ve stepped in like a bossy older sister and taken over. Just what I needed as garden season starts!
According to my weather ap I have a cold slushy week ahead to knock out most of this project. After that I’ll be outside full time!
Heading to breakfast with my favorite flower farmers. Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat out.

SW RND 292: 167.2
Starting from the ground up 🌱
gardened for three hours yesterday - it felt great! Then friends came over and brought fresh bagels and I had one (worth it!) plus one sugar free hard iced tea. Scale is up which just shows how much inflammation and water retention those foods create in my body. Will be careful with carbs today to bring it back down.
going for a brief dip in the ocean today with some girlfriends! Should be invigorating 😆

Very happy I opted to fly to Phoenix and have a car meet me instead of doing the connecting flight to Tucson; my flight was delayed for almost 2 hrs. I used to have these fraught connections all the time; now I pay for car service between the cities and the combined cost is similar without the "airport roulette". Also this way my friend, who is about to turn 80, doesn't have to worry about picking me up.
I love it here; it's beautiful in April- the ocatillo are blooming and everything is at its freshest. Great time with BFF.

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 291 144.1 (65.4 kg)
4/1- 143.1 (64.9 kg) I am keeping up on weighing but have been lackluster with my tracking and posting. I don't consciously feel burned out. So is it laziness? Complacency? Something else? I need to reset and get my head back in the mindset that this is a way of life. I've certainly failed many times just going my merry way and eating whatever without accountability.
4/2 143 (64.9 kg) I'm less than 2 weeks out from double jaw surgery and my surgeon called me this evening to say they found a cyst on my upper jaw over my incisor and he wants me to come in sometime in the next two days so he can check tooth vitality and decide whether to take care of it before surgery or during. I'm feeling a bit bummed because I have been in braces 33 months preparing for this and wasn't expecting a complication this late in the process. On the other hand, if I wasn't preparing for surgery who knows how long I'd have had this and what issues it may have caused down the line. I'm hoping my surgery doesn't need to delayed but I'll defer to my doctor's judgement on the best course of action. I guess I'll learn more in the next couple of days.
4/3- 143.4 (65 kg) So apparently I have a 21 mm cyst and it appears two of my teeth have issues from it. He'll remove the cyst during surgery, but I'm getting a last minute referral to an endodontist to develop a post surgical plan of action prior to surgery. Calories were spot on today, so there's another win.
4/4- 141.9 (64.4 kg) Over calories today but I had a fun evening.
4/5- 142.6 (64.7 kg) Today was sunny and relatively warm. Trend weight is still going down.
4/6- 141.7 (64.3 kg) Apparently I didn't hit post last night. This morning is a new low for me. 53 pounds down!

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.
4/6 134.0 I baked 5 loaves of bread yesterday and ate 2 slices while hot. Meeting my sewing friends in an hour. Excited to see them and to wrap up this project.

04/05-194.2- (Trend Weight: 195.1) I’m back and all caught up on reading the posts from round 291 and 292. Thanks you all for so many prayers and well wishes. I am starting with my last known weight on 3/31 which happened to be at the end of the last round. I am showing a loss as of today from that but did gain last round. I’m not sure why there has been a loss over the past couple of days since it’s been all restaurant food and bad snacks at the hotel. I think maybe it was because I was having stress related stomach issues the whole time? Heat is still not completely resolved here but they promised today. The main thing is that they continue to need more parts which are not readily available here for furnaces so it keeps being a waiting game. If this persists, I’ll have to head south again and look for hotels again. Last night was a nightmare sleeping here, so cold. Today you can physically feel that it is warmer outside than in the house even though it continues to be a cold Michigan winter day. I appreciate continued prayers for my family including my adult children affected by this disaster in our area. Please pray for our entire community. Some will be without power for up to a month!
🐰 🐰 🐰 🐰 🐰04/06-193.2- (Trend Weight: 194.9) Good News and Bad News. First the bad news: It appears the power surge blew out my wall double ovens. I had an appliance person come by and check on it. The control board is no longer available. To replace them is 3000 to 4000 just for the ovens, not counting installation. You don’t know how much I hoped that it was just a breaker switch which I tried first. No ovens right before Easter so dinner is cancelled. The good news is Heat, glorious Heat! Furnace install was completed by yesterday evening. Central Air will be installed soon. Finally we can stay home. It’s nice to see a couple of new faces here. Welcome to all!

@deepwoodslady - my sister's and a few other of my friends swear by air fryers & never ever use their ovens, would that be a cheaper alternative for you even as a temporary measure? I've never used one myself tbh, but they are always telling me to get one. Just a thought.
The other thing is, is it something that would be covered on your house insurance?
