    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 303
    July 20 - 29, 2025

    63 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 up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
    SW MFP Sept 14, 2020  – 153 (lost 40, then stress loss if2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress gain)
    SW MFP Jan 1, 2023  – 146.6

    GW Maintaining between 124 – 126 SW: 127.6 Since my weight is slowing coming back down, I’ve added back in history details INCLUDING my maintenance numbers. In January, it seemed silly including my goal was to maintain 124 – 126 when I was weighing 138. Those maintenance numbers are in sight now. Just need to get there. 

    SW: 129.6

    7/20 – 130.0 What am I doing? Three days in a row. Today is the bridal shower. Fortunately today’s dress is a little forgiving. Thursday I head to the seamstress for MOG dress alterations. Gotta stop this!

    7/21 – 127.4 Too good to me true, and does not make sense. I weighed more than once, and it came up the same. If I were in Mass I would get out my travel scale to verify. Just going to have to roll with it and see if it makes sense tomorrow as well. 

    Yesterday was a long day. Four and a half hours of driving. Shower was fine, and easy to not eat. Today, DH and I are going to drive up to Booth Bay Harbor for some re-con work. In two weeks, DD and fam are visiting and the DH, DSIL and DGS#1 are going to “boat camp” up in BBH while DD, DGS#2 and I hand out at the beach with her two and our two cats (condo is a 2 bedroom ;P )

    7/22 – 127.8 Yesterday, was still not back to normal, regarding eating behavior. So still suspicious of this number. Tomorrow will be telling. I head back to MA tonight. If the scale matches tomorrow, then these numbers are legit.

    Restarting, after a long absence... I've found success on MFP and this group in the past and ready to do it again. I was slender and fit my entire life until menopause hit in my early 40s and have been struggling with my weight ever since. I will be doing well with my fitness and lifestyle choices and then either life stresses or recently injuries cause a set back and I gain 20 lbs. (or more) super quick. This will be my 4th time in 8 years to lose this weight. Determined to make it the last time I have to do this!

    2018 SW = 172.0 lbs. End Weight = 141.5 lbs.

    2022 SW = 193.9 lbs. End Weight = 143.6 lbs.

    2024 SW = 165.8 lbs. End Weight = 144.6 lbs.

    Start Weight on 7/6/25 = 169.7lbs. Goal Weight = Under 145 lbs. (5'4, 55-year-old female)

    End Round 301: 167.7 lbs.

    End Round 302: 165.3 lbs.

    Goals for Round 303: Back from vacation and need to lose the vacation weight gain and then go from there.

    7/20: DNW

    7/21: DNW

    7/22: 170.4 lbs. Yikes! Back from vacation and that number stings a little…clearly did not diet or make the best choices but I also didn't overeat or binge. Hoping this is not a "real" number and that it drops fairly quickly!

    7/21 - 169.1 - Ouch.

    7/22 - 167.3 - A very happy improvement. Not back to where I was, but much much closer. I miscalculated a meal yesterday and when I caught it and adjusted it before bed, I ended up well over on carbs and nearly 200 over on calories. Still in a very minor deficit but goals. Today I've worked diligently to pre-plan and pre-log while double checking to ensure I have everything right to stay within goals. Another goal is to up my water intake today. I was close to 90oz yesterday but not quite there because I got lazy about drinking my last bottle of water at the end of the night. I'd really love it if I could see 166.x tomorrow so I'm going to focus hard on hitting my goals.

Lunch, had one slice (small) of leftover pizza (crustless but high sodium) and then cooked bone-in chicken thighs with fat-free cream of mushroom soup, brown rice, and green beans. So good, I had 2 thighs. Total calories 1757. Must be better today!!! Two days down, 8 more go to!! Focus!!

    @itladyee asked @quiltingjaine ~ What’s your window for your OMAD?

    It varies. On occasion I want something around 11 so I might just have a cup of coffee with 1 oz of heavy cream. I prefer to have dinner around 3 or 4 but if DH is playing cards it may be as late as 5-5:30. Last night I made a rotisserie chicken and grilled eggplant and we ate at about 5. I need to do a longer fast - 1 or 2 days but I have to work my brain into being ready! 😁

    Short answer - 11-5

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 303 (my 233rd).

    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.

    image-a997aa1a8af238-29a2.png

    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, it’s taken me 75 rounds to achieve target of 130 = back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 135. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

    Updated 20.08.24 – I met up with youngest DB, first time after his DP passed away at the way too early age of 46. DB lives a long way from us, we see him very infrequently & is very introvert, so not a sharer of info 😞. However, he finally opened up to me, it seems that his DPs bad health leading to heart failure followed by kidney, liver failure & then a massive stroke, was originally caused by heavy drinking. By the time he realised he was abusing his body and went teetotal, the damage was too late to reverse. He was on the list for a heart transplant, but his other organs gave up before one became available.This has made me think about how I am abusing my body when I have binges with way too much sugar, fat & salt. I know I am a food addict. I'm going to try to think about this when I am tempted to overindulge, I need to start respecting my body more and think about whether I want to be in the best health I can be. My body has served me so well for 67 years, it deserves to be given the best chance to keep serving me well & I've been really lucky that life has not dealt me a raw health deal, so I must not jeopardize that luck.

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

    7/19 141.6 – 8.86 miles walked (again!) Failed to achieve goal of 141, but nevertheless, a loss of 2.6 pounds from the inflated number at the end of the last round. After I posted yesterday, I remembered that we had a dinner date with BIL & his partner at a local Indian restaurant, it was too late to edit my post. I was pleased that I ate very lightly all day & then chose very sensibly, walked to & from the restaurant and left half my boiled rice. I came away feeling satisfied, but not stuffed or uncomfortable, an NSV for me. I also feel that helped me to maintain yesterday’s number.

    EW Rnd 302 141.6

    SW Rnd 303 141.6

    7/20 141.6 (trend 141.9) 8.31 miles walked. Goal for this round is 140.

    7/22 141.6 (trend 141.8) 7.66 miles walked.
