    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 295 (my 225th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.

    Goals for every 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.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 196.0

    05/01-196.2 ❌ (Trend Weight: 194.9)

    05/02 – 194.6 ✅ (Trend Weight – 194.9) Just further proof that @quiltingjaine is absolutely right about things not always showing up on the scale until days later. After 2 days of high weights that I didn’t understand, today is finally a nice drop. But of all the crazy things, yesterday was actually a bad day! I did not pre-log, I ate grab-n-go foods throwing all caution to the wind. High calorie, high carb GARBAGE. Snacks were approved but I overate them. Today should have been the merited gain but the scale dropped 1.6 from the perfect days prior. Will yesterday’s mistakes show up in a day or two? Maybe, but I’ll fight it tooth & nail, kicking and screaming all the way. Sometimes the scale will give me one day’s grace so I’ll hope for that. I need better planning today for sure!

    🎪🎪🎪 🎪 05/03-195.0 ❌ - (Trend Weight: 194.9) Looks like the scale has caught up. Expected but not appreciated. I’m trying to figure out whether I want to take a rest/relax day at home and maybe get some more storm burning done or go on a short (1 hr each way) trip out-of-town for a little shopping. I need a few things for my project and would like to see what’s available at a brick and mortar store before going online to shop. Some things you just need to touch/feel before you buy. We’ll see how the day pans out.

    Round 295 #2

    Whoops, I thought I posted for this round, but I can't seem to find it! 👀 I'll try again:

    Here we go for the next 10 days! ☺️ I intend to weigh myself at the start and finish of the round and will update my progress within the group at the end. My height is 5'3" and my current weight is 63.3kg (139.55 lb). My ultimate goal weight is 54kg.

    Each day my goals are to:

    • Log my foods/exercise into Myfitnesspal
    • Eat healthier and reduce the intake of junk food
    • Reduce alcohol intake
    • Aim to go to the gym 4 times per week.

    I hope everyone does well this round. See you on the other side!💕

    Greatful to everyone for being here as I flake in and out. I'm trying to re-establish the good habits that I've let go.

    Goals this time around:

    Post daily especially when it's not convenient

    Exercise for a minimum 500 calorie burn daily

    Hold calories down and build meals around quality protein and fats

    This was once normal but now it's a goal. Consistency for the next three rounds should get me back to normal.

    Best Wishes for SUCCESS Everyone. Yes We Can!

    SW Rnd 295 - 153.0 lbs

    5/1 - 152.8 lbs

    Good start today. Posting now is not convenient but I'm doing it any way. Hope to hit the gym and handle the day's meals before sunrise. I need a win today. A bit of order to the chaos and meeting today's goals would be a big win.

    5/2 - 152.8 lbs

    Yesterday's good start didn't last and today began poorly. 🤞 I can clean this up and end well.

    Thanks so much for the support and mentions since I've returned. You nudge me in the right direction when I'd rather miss behave.

    5/3 - 155.0 lbs

    Shame on me! Nothing but misbehaving and the scale proves it. I could see it in my ankles first.

    Not hitting my targets so far. No mercy and no excuses. Must do right!

    5/4 - 152.8 lbs
    Still bloated due to bad eating. Way off every mark would be an accurate description yet I have improved. Only miniscule, but still better.

    These goals I've set are ridiculously easy. My plan is to work my way back to normal. Why do I feel like I've outlined an arduous feat never before considered by mankind? This is crossing the border into stupidity.

    Warning to self: Life may hand me chaos but I don't need to let this chaos take over unrelated areas of my life.

    🥾Round 295🥾

    I’m a 66 year young Pacific Northwest gal who continues to be inspired to lose those last clingy pounds while achieving the best possible health. I’m starting this round off at 135.8 and my goal is to touch base with 134. That means getting back to the basics…. Logging 🪵, movement 👣 and lots of water 💦.

    5/1. 135.8. 
    5/2. 136.2. 
    5/3. 135.2
    5/4. 135.0. Slow, but steady. Going in the right direction!
