    Month/Day: Scale Reading first thing today before getting dressed. / Goals met ✏️🎯💓/ Comment

    A good start to the round thanks to reasonable eating and excellent exercise. I rode my bike about 19 miles; about half of it was in heart rate zone 3. The bad part was it was the heat of the day. I downed a liter of LMNT drink during the ride and immediately afterward.

    We belong to a CSA (community supported agriculture.) The farmer gives us a bag full of freshly picked veggies every Tuesday, based on what is ripe this week. This week had the most beautiful kale I have ever seen. That is where my appreciation for kale stops. BUT, DW stir fried it with a bunch of other veggies and it changed everything. Very delicious.

    Happy Birthday to Jeff. So, I will have two opportunities for ice cream today. 😊 I hope I can maintain this number.

    7/11: 225.2
    Goals kicked to the curb during a carb packed birthday food fest. Now back to reality.

    Thank you all for the Happy Birthday wishes!

    Continued birthday excuse for me today. I really didn’t deny myself anything yesterday. I did well with protein intake, but carbs high again. Good news is the pie is gone and so are the baked beans. I expected an increase but I will say the 2.4 pound “jump” did surprise me.

    7/13: 226.0
    ✏️🎯💓
    Amazing what a little bit of discipline will produce. Good exercise to go with a lot of sedentary reading yesterday. Trying for another day of limited damage.

    7/14: 224.0
    ✏️🎯💓
    Bright side – I am lower than this round’s SW.
    Dark side – my birthday celebrations trashed my ten-day average for the round.
    Striving to meet ALL my goals,

    7/15: 223.0
    ✏️🎯💓
    OK I have a three-day streak for meeting all goals. That has helped.

    I need to conserve calories during breakfast and lunch because we are having a “light dinner” at friend’s after going to the F1 movie this afternoon. They always go over the top with food so be prepared. Drinks will be involved. (I will avoid popcorn at the theater for sure.)

    As the most interesting man in the world might say, “I don’t always watch racing, but when I do, it’s Formula 1.”

    I need to do some serious thinking about packing for a trip to the Rockies next week.

    7/16: 225.4
    ✏️🎯💓
    I had a fantastic bike ride yesterday to go along with a terrible day if eating. I netted out fine, but the scale indicated I am full of it. Literally.

    F1 movie was really good.

    Hello I'm Darlene, retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty).

    Nothing exciting yesterday, just a normal day in the neighborhood exercise done, grocery shopping done, voted (town budget vote) done, and a little bit of extra 🪰cleaning to make up for Monday. Wow! I lead an exciting life! My daughter is on vacation this week, so she is coming over tonight and hanging with us tomorrow, looking forward to seeing her.

    @_JeffreyD_ Oh, how I know those feelings. As Jillian Michaels says - you can't exercise you way out of a bad diet - but I always die trying!

    @Deviette Two great wins - a scale win and a NSV not eating when you aren't hungry! Congrats.

    @musicsax Oh those meds (and the injury) will definitely make you retain. It will shed when you finish. You'll get that med detox swish!

    @MTW70 Hooray for the step win!

    @stephanj I had to look up what P90X3 is, looking intimidating! Good for you.

    @GrandmaJackie So glad that you are ok and that the floods did not affect you.

    @Chapter_3 Glad you are having a nice time. Thanks for sharing the memory of your Mom, and wonderful that she set such a great example.

    sorry for being so slow to respond to a few comments. Sis being here and then not, chewed up some of my mental energy. But i came out of her visit pretty much unscathed.

    anyhow……

    @Deviette regarding state of dress for weighing, what is most important is that each of us do what supports us. so glad you have found what works for you! <3

    @iLive2Walk I think you are going to be disappointed by the ice cream story. Basically, DD grabbed a large pizza for the boys and myself, and my sister said she wanted to stop by and visit with them. I told her there would be pizza available. The boys and I turned set up the ice cream maker right before sitting down for the pizza. We finished the pizza, and I remove the fresh ice cream from the unit. Huge mess of drips all over the counter because I was doing it will trying to keep the boys involved yet not falling of the stool and counter. I seat the boys with their ice cream, and just then my sister arrives. Now, I am needed to help her while keeping track of the boys. As soon as she is done eating, she now wants to do this and do that, while I was struggling to clean up a bit. Anyhow, she stayed until DD and DSIL came home. They boys certainly enjoyed the engagement, but sister set the activities.

    @itladyee sorry your babysitting got cancelled. :'(

    @_JeffreyD_ We went to F1 movie last week. It was my first ever IMax movie. We enjoyed it. it was well done.

    Thank you @musicsax !!!!!🌸💚🌸

    7/11-139-Helping at the quilt shop for a special sale. We get fed lunch and I try to walk around as much as I can to get my steps in and it’s usually a three day thing. I can only help today and will go play pickle ball first, early this morning, drink my special protein packed drink and not eat the free lunch or the snacks offered.

    7/12-137-Stuck to my plan and am glad. Off to see our adult boys and meet the parents of one of the girlfriends. Will get to see my dad too. Won’t be around a scale until Tuesday.

    7/15-138-Spent two nights at my dads (it was wonderful to see him) and had to eat out a couple of times during the trip, but made fairly wise choices and went to play pickle ball when we got home yesterday. Back on track today.

    7/16-138-Took a bunch of fish out to cook and freeze to make salads, fish cakes or halibut dip out of it. Cooler weather today and I have a whole list of outside projects to work on.

    07/14-192.2 💠 -(Trend Weight: 191.2)

    07/15-191.0 -✅ (Trend Weight: 191.2) I’ve only dropped on the scale one time in the last 11 days (since 4th of July) and that was only for a hot minute. So this is very welcomed. That holiday (for some strange reason) put me on a drunken binge although no alcohol has been involved. I hope I’ve turned a corner here and will start making some progress again. I’m tired of “staggering around” when I could be making leaps and bounds!

    💥💥💥 07/16-191.0 💠 - (Trend Weight: 191.1) No change in weight. Trend down a notch. I am so excited about seeing Superman tomorrow. Very tall grandsons (age 17 & 19) have chosen Golden Corral while downstate for the movie. Such a treat for rural folks like us. My DGS who is autistic (age 9) will also be going with us along with my own adult autistic son. Young DGS has only been to the movies once but is finally able to handle the sound and large colorful graphics (I think). It is going to be fun. I’ll try to be reasonable at the buffet but I know that no matter what happens it will only be a couple of days to shake it off. Honestly, the real challenge is eating bad things for four days straight every week when DD and other DGS are here. They’ve become part of my lifestyle in their current situation and I’ve got to adapt in the healthy ways that keeps me focused on my overall health and weight goals. It’s right in front of me, I see it clearly. I’ve just got to reach harder, reach farther, touch it, then grab it up and make it my own! Observation looking over my week: My meals were very good, my exercise and water much improved. However, my snacks at night were ridiculous. I really have made a pig of myself. I feel like a drowning person who sees a buoy in the water but the nighttime snacks just keep pushing me back, further and further away from that buoy, away from saving myself. It’s sink or swim!

    @deepwoodslady sounds like a wonderful time to look forward to. As for the buffet, my trick is I allow myself one regular plate of whatever I like the best. No depriving other than no overloading. Just a concept to try, if it helps. <3

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 302 (my 232nd). So grateful to @Quiltingjaine to keeping this going for such a long time – thank you.

    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! I aim to lose a pound this round. Good luck for success everyone.

    I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life."Health is wealth".

    EW Rnd 301 144

    SW Rnd 302 142

    7/10 142 – good that eating on plan is showing results, but need to stick at it. 10.43 miles walked.

    7/11 143 – 6.3 miles walked.

    7/12 DNW - away for the weekend in Stratford-upon-Avon. 8.93 miles walked.

    7/13 DNW - 10.29 miles walked.

    7/14 141.8 – 4.83 miles walked around the village before we left for home.

    image.png

    7/15 142.2 – 7.22 miles walked. Meeting DSs & FFs for lunch today; they are all currently doing Slimming World so it will be easy to make sensible choice from menu. Last time we went to this place I had Cajun chicken bowl which was delicious, may choose again.

    7/16 142.6 – 10.02 miles walked. I didn’t have the cajun chicken salad bowl, the weather had dropped 10 degrees C & I wanted something warm– jacket potato with chilli was what I ordered. Disappointed with the number, I’m 3 days into a course of antibiotics for a badly infected insect bite, is that affecting the scales? I don’t know, but I’ll stick with it & trust the process.

    7/17 142.4 – 8.8 miles walked.
