⚠️Long Post. NSV: for me, this is an NSV… I passed on our annual girls trip to “The Ranch”. Every August, the gals head to a ranch owned by one of my friends family. It is an all out 48 hr food / drink orgy. I decided not to put myself in that situation ever again because it’s no longer who I am or what I want. I love them all dearly, but I’ve transformed. Becoming who I am meant to be, means moving away from old realities … It means taking myself out of situations that are contrary. That was a huge decision for me. I replaced it with health & movement & I didn’t miss it at all. This decision was a clear demarcation / boundary.
Have any of you left something behind that was part of you?! (To embrace your new identity?) #shedding.5 -

8/10: 142.4. I've been exhausted lately. The kind that's not from a lack of sleep. I'm starting to wonder if there is something wrong with me. I might need to find time to get to the doctor, but it's really hard with having young kids. I haven't had the energy to really work out in a while. Food choices could be better but it takes more energy to plan and prepare healthier options. I'm just struggling right now.

My fingers and joints are swollen. I have to dust myself off and do better today. Lots of water and being kind to myself.

NSG (tracked for prior day):
🏃🏻♀️ movement - 7/10 days
🚫 no alcohol - 7/10 daysSW Rnd 305 - 134.0
RGW: 132.08/9 - 133.4 🚫🏃🏻♀️Yesterday was good! Ran sprints assigned by my Garmin training plan. Stayed on track through the day so I could indulge in chicken tikka masala that I made for dinner. Today will be more challenging at a local agricultural fair and a night out at a small concert. DH is playing trombone in a band for a couple of songs! Happy Saturday! Glad to be back with you!
8/10 132.8. This is a fake number. I waaayyy overdid it last night and I’m sure the beers left me dehydrated. It was a fun night but today will be a struggle. And I’ll see the repercussions on the scale tomorrow. I just have a 30 minute easy run to do today and I’m taking the kids to a community production of The Wizard of Oz. Not sure the 4 year old will make it through but we’ll try it.

@Chapter_3 great job honoring your boundaries and being true to yourself by making a difficult choice!
@Zaxa2021 hope you have a supportive partner to help shoulder the load so you can take the time to figure out what’s going on with your energy level. I know it’s hard to carve out the time for the doctor but it’s important to the whole family that we moms take care of ourselves!

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 305
August 9 - 18, 202563 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 – 146.6GW 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: 129.0
8/9 – 128.4 so, goal for the round is simple. 10 days just tracking correctly, NO MATTER WHAT! Yesterday was good, I even got in an evening walk. Just 2.5 miles, but it is something.
8/10 – 128.2 Tracking was good. Under my target. Got a short dumbbell arm session in before I had to field a phone call. Pre-tracked a couple days ahead. I had forgotten how helpful that is. This morning when I got up, I knew what I was eating and when, and even know what I need to purchase for my groceries the next few days. Let’s see how this pays off!

@musicsax Thank you so very much for your spoiler on your post. My DB died Dec 2021 of alcoholism (liver). He was only 54, much too young. I rarely drink alcohol but I never realized that I have an addiction just as hefty and dangerous as his. Mine is food! In many ways it is killing me in the same way that the alcohol did him. I won't go into all the reasons why (T2D etc), but I will say THANK YOU. Thank you for an eye-opening post. #Everything in moderation #Beat the addictions
@_JeffreyD_ Wow! What an article that is! I was shocked to see some of the items listed in the processed and ultra-processed lists. Time to rethink shopping. Time for me to maybe start cooking my own foods and snacks from scratch a little more often! Thanks for sharing!

Day/Weight/Comment
ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 185.6 (Trend Weight: 186.7)
08/09-183.4 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 186.3) Weight was up 1.8 yesterday and it’s down 2.2 today. What a Drama Queen it it’s being! Round and round and round it goes, where it stops, nobody knows. There is a festival going on nearby today. DD, DGS and I will be going in a little while to give little Owen something to celebrate his healing from the tonsil/adenoid surgery and also have some end-of-summer, back-to-school –soon fun. There will be fair food which is all part of the experience. I will try not to go hog wild. Maybe just be a little bit of a piglet since these types of foods are normally so unavailable to this little community. I don’t want to seriously ruin my progress of late. I will eat some lunch before I leave and that should help.
⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️08/10-183.0 ✅ (Trend Weight – 186.0) I did very well at the festival. It wasn’t typical carnival type fare so I was able to resist it all and just stuck to bottled water in the 94” heat. I did buy a loaf of fresh baked bread for home and ate a slab of it last night slathered in butter. But I found it very dry or stale and will have no problem resisting it today. My son & grandson can have it or it can go in the trash. If I’m going to cheat, it has got to be worth it. I gave up part of my pre-planned dinner for that slab of bread and it definitely was not worth it. Scale still down today because I stayed within calorie limits but carbs were over.

8/9: 184.9 😊Had some calories left last night. 🙌Stayed on track. Practiced tap for some exercise. I also planned meals for the week and shopped for them with DH. We’re on track for a good, healthy week.🤩
8/10: 183.9 🤩Today was errand day. I was on a quest to find GF Pepitas (aka pumpkin seeds) and wound up ordering them online. Ugh! Made Jamaican Pork Tenderloin since I already had the Mango Chutney and Jamaican Rice & Peas. Didn’t have broccoli like I thought, so I quartered a zucchini. Sprayed it with olive oil spray, sprinkled a little parmesan as well as GF cracker crumbs. Baked the wedges in the Ninja for 12 minutes. Wow! I think I found a new favorite veggie for dinner. 🙌No exercise today. I’ll probably weigh more tomorrow, but oh well. 🤷♀️

8/9: 300.7
8/10: 298.3 - My goal for this round is to get lower than my SW for round 304 which was a complete disaster. Having said that, it is normal for me to gain 5 during my TOM that isn't real gain, yet I still get shocked by it. Regardless, I'm back in the 200s and today I did something very good for me. I used to ride my Peloton religiously and it was so good for my weight loss. Since we moved cities in May I hadn't been on the bike in our new house, but that's changed now as I rode for 30 minutes this afternoon. Going to spend the week focusing on better habits for me. I travel on Friday for the weekend so I want to make the start of this round count!3 -

🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 305 (my 235th).
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
- an additional goal for me (again) this round is to have a totally 10 day binge free round.
Soooo, 4 weeks on Monday we fly out for our annual holiday; in that time I should be able to lose 4 pounds, so that is my personal challenge, I want to lose a pound a week/1.25 per round. I can do it if I use my will power.
I need to remain consistent - it does work! I aim to lose a pound this round. Good luck for success everyone.
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".
8/8 142.2 – failed to meet my mini goal 140 pounds, a loss of 0.6 pounds, oh dear, just have to roll over (again) to next round. No structured walking as childminding little DGSs.

08/10 DNW08/11 183.0 Will I ever learn that one day of being a hedonist deletes the entire week of work? This should come down with a day or two of normal activity and eating.
I was a bit of a bum yesterday afternoon with a heat wave pushing in I holed up for the afternoon of little dog snuggles and Netflix in the AC. An all around rest day for my mind and body.
I do feel relaxed and recharged for my week ahead. I’m being nice to myself but I’m not letting myself off the hook for my lack of will power on the weekends.
I need to do some internal searching to figure out while I am self sabotaging. Or am I being ridiculous to chase an idea of a weight over experiencing the joy of a moment? Is high calorie food and alcohol really a part of that joy?Real change happens when I go into the uncomfortable zone and I see what happens.

⚠️Long Post. NSV: for me, this is an NSV… I passed on our annual girls trip to “The Ranch”. Every August, the gals head to a ranch owned by one of my friends family. It is an all out 48 hr food / drink orgy. I decided not to put myself in that situation ever again because it’s no longer who I am or what I want. I love them all dearly, but I’ve transformed. Becoming who I am meant to be, means moving away from old realities … It means taking myself out of situations that are contrary. That was a huge decision for me.

Hello I'm Darlene, retired, 65-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I started my journey in January 2023, and over the last two years have lost about 90 pounds, give or take a couple. I got to my goal weight in the last quarter of 2024, and now tackling the maintenance phase.

Aug 10: 139.4 13.9K 👣🚶♀️➡️🏋️♀️🚲🥊🥗⏱️🪰📖 🧂I was hoping for a swish this morning, but didn't see it. A normal day yesterday, a tad high on the sodium, but just under my goal. Nice to be home.
Aug 11: 138.8 18.9K 👣 🚶♀️➡️🫀🥊🥗⏱️🪰📖 Getting too close for comfort. Need to rein it in. Although I was under my limit, over the sodium and late night snack attack did me in.

8/19:8/12: OK, I fell off the face of this challenge in the last round. I started to think, why am I doing this when I'm not losing weight? What's the point? Then I realized: that IS the point. Keep connected and keep being aware of what I'm doing, but maybe just give myself a break. Pay attention to what's happening so I can remain in range, and notice what's bumping my weight up.
It's been a tough summer emotionally, but many good things have happened too. DD#1 got the fellowship she wanted for next year (2026-27); DS got a great job after graduation and will be moving to the Philly area- much closer to us (in less than a month!); DD#2 is starting grad school in a new direction and DGD#1 is starting college (yikes!!)
Life goes on in many good ways even when sadness and loss come into my life. The key is to see both equally- mourn the sad, celebrate the good. Eating crap doesn't change that, or fix it.
But (a little) chocolate helps.

8/9 DNW/DNP
8/10 DNW - I did roast 2 pounds of roma tomatoes from the garden with garlic and herbs which then became a roasted tomato sauce over a portion of penne. The flavor was amazing. Came in under my calorie goal for the day. Hit my steps and skipped alcohol. 🍴🔥
8/11 183.8 Woke up before my alarm- travel day for work which means junk temptations. Packing watermelon, crunchy lentils, and plenty of water. Restless sleep last night so I know I'll feel more snacky than usual. At least I'm aware!

8/10: 142.4. I've been exhausted lately. The kind that's not from a lack of sleep. I'm starting to wonder if there is something wrong with me. I might need to find time to get to the doctor, but it's really hard with having young kids. I haven't had the energy to really work out in a while. Food choices could be better but it takes more energy to plan and prepare healthier options. I'm just struggling right now.

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 305
August 9 - 18, 202563 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 – 146.6GW 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: 129.0
8/9 – 128.4 so, goal for the round is simple. 10 days just tracking correctly, NO MATTER WHAT! Yesterday was good, I even got in an evening walk. Just 2.5 miles, but it is something.
8/10 – 128.2 Tracking was good. Under my target. Got a short dumbbell arm session in before I had to field a phone call. Pre-tracked a couple days ahead. I had forgotten how helpful that is. This morning when I got up, I knew what I was eating and when, and even know what I need to purchase for my groceries the next few days. Let’s see how this pays off!
8/11 – 127.8 Pre-tracking made the day fairly easy. I did have a mid-day adjustment, but again, being able to see the whole day with impact of the change made it straight forward to adjust. I will say, I had “binge” urges in the evening, so that is still happening, but between my round 305 commitment and more petite dill pickles, I go through. Now, to look up what I tracked for this morning’s breakfast. I recall it is something higher.On another note, I got a little awakening yesterday. I am trying to figure out what I am going to wear to the rehearsal dinner in september. Not finding anything I want….yet. So yesterday, I decided to try on one of my 10-or-so year old "classics". Would be a good color and I have always loved it (own it in two colors). My weight is lower than when I likely purchased, based off my history. So should be good, right? It was VERY borderline. I think this is telling me how truly the scale is just a piece of the puzzle. Pretty sure I was regularly going to the gym, those 10 years ago.

A little bit about me: I'm 33 years old, female, 160cm (5ft 2.5in) tall. I have a 2yo son who is so full of energy and keeps me eternally busy! I generally keep fit doing judo and walking my very mad spaniel. I have Crohn's disease and am currently flaring which mean I'm struggling with fatigue and nausea. I weigh wearing clothes so my actual weight fluctuates a lot, but I'm more concerned about trend.
SW: 81.2kg GW: 70kg UGW: 62kg
My round goals:
Weigh every day
In bed by 10:30pm
Maintaining is good enough
Knee exercises daily
Alcohol free
Track Crohn's symptoms8/9 - DNW
8/10 - DNW
8/11 - DNW - So it turns out even though I did take my scales with me on holiday, there was no WIFI and signal was so very poor, so couldn't easily check in and so we enjoyed an unplugged holiday. Also finally exchanged on our house last week and completion is this Thursday so we have a lot of packing to do between now and then! Still trying to just keep to maintaining until the house move is sorted.

8/9-RTW-Went to a birthday party at the local bar last night and had some appetizers that are not included in my normal way of eating. Also had a piece of the cake I brought. Off to a bridal shower today with more of the “out of the ordinary food.”
8/11-137-After the birthday party at the bar Friday, then a bridal shower at a bistro Saturday with great food, I think I can be back to where I started by tomorrow morning.Still getting the park across the road ready for the fundraiser this weekend.

8/11 - Logging in today. Weight at 211. It's slowly going down from where I started at (216) and that was just being mindful of what I was eating, a few more steps each day and a few days of working out. Now I am going to step it up more.

Late to the party, but I am here!
8/09- 166.08/10- 167.58/11- 168.3 - I've stuck to my goals. I do know my food wasn't the most ideal over the weekend since I had to adjust on the fly. Fortunately my hunger levels keep me eating a smaller amount than my macros which allows flexibility with snacks to fill the gaps. Not always the best choices, but at least the goals are met. I've got meals prepped for lunch and dinner this week and I've pre-logged today and tomorrow so I have a baseline for Thursday and Friday. I'll fill in gaps with breakfast and snacks as needed and based on what sounds best. Water has been great, drinking over 100oz daily but it has been very hot (over 100F, 38C) and I was outdoors a large chunk. One of those days was limited water while out and about. Only one vendor at the car show and they only took cash payments which I didn't have any cash. I had Whiskey, the puppy, so we split water and got out of there early to head home and get some water. I'm sure there's some dehydration still involved. This week I'm hoping to see more progress since last week went so well.3 -
