Hi : - )
I am Dawn. I turned 65 this round. I have changed my eating habits over time. I basically eat half of the amount that I used to, and have limited eating Ribs to once every 3 months instead of once per week. I eat everything, just less of it and/or less often. I topped out at 207, at 5'2" that is not healthy at all! I joined MFP at 198lbs. Ultimate health goal for my arthritic feet is 110-118.

Day 78—11/08 — 135.4 - Split shift today, tomorrow is a straight through shift so I need to take advantage of the break this afternoon to get the few beets that I pulled peeled and boiled. I will need to take lots of food with me to the restaurant tomorrow and beets are a great snack for me. People either love them or hate them, the same with Cilantro.
Day 79—11/09 — 136.4 - Late night dinners are catching up with me on the scale. Monday and Tuesday will be different, no evening jobs. Yesterday I peeled and sliced carrots during my break and when I got home from work sauteed them in 2tbsp of honey garlic sauce. I added 3/4 a cup of rice and at the end added some onion tops from some that I am growing inside in pots. Healthy food, and healthy foods all week. I just couldn't skip dinner after work, I was too hungry. I am really due for some indulgent food, maybe Monday night I will have some wings, I have a frozen box of the pre-cooked kind from Safeway. Straight through shift today, lots of food ready to take to eat throughout the day: an apple, some belle pepper strips, a chicken sandwich, my own potato salad. Yes, of course I could eat the restaurant food for free, but I choose not to because I would be 50 pounds heavier if I did that, and I don't want to be.
Day 80—11/10 — 137.2 - Still climbing, another late dinner. Re-thinking my indulgent meal for tonight! Day off tomorrow : - ) Sooooo looking forward to getting outside!

Week 12 actual weight:6 -
I hit my goals for the entire weekend. My workouts are going better. I unsubscribed to Zwift for various reasons, but I'm streaming Youtube bike scenery during my spin sessions instead. There are so many fantastic GoPro workouts out there. I'm working my way back up to the intensity of the Apple Fitness spin workouts. Those are more intense and HIIT style. I got my strength sessions done, and I've also been increasing my squat range and shoulder flexibility.
The food goal was challenging because I spent lots of time with mom who doesn't take no for an answer when it comes to food, but I'm learning to hold my ground in a kind, but firm way.

Thoughts at the start of this round:
This round will be challenging as it includes the U.S. holidays of Labor Day, Halloween and Thanksgiving. All are big foodie or party and dessert type holidays in the U.S. There are also multiple birthday celebrations in my family. In addition, there will be a lot of travel which is traditional in the fall for me as I try to avoid as many icy driving trips as possible in the winter months. There will be lots of doctor appointments away from home as well as Christmas and gift-giving shopping in this round. I will have to make sure I stay on top of my plan in every moment I can and to make the necessary corrections every time the scale goes up. We can’t control the ingredients in restaurant food so portion control will be key when away from home. I will again aim for a 10 pound loss this round. Thanks for sharing your journey with me and allowing me to share mine. I am grateful for you all.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

CURRENT WEEK:
Day 79—11/09—180.8 ✅ (Trend Weight – 183.5) I am NOT going to grab my bags and run the opposite way just because I am getting closer to a new decade. Nope, I’m going to stand my ground. I’m hoping to hit the 170’s by the end of this challenge. I know I will bounce back & forth over the line so my goal will always be to see that number 7 in front of the decimal point so I have wiggle room. But I’m feeling much stronger and more confident today. I woke up to our first snow. I tried to move my truck up into it’s winter resting place and the battery is dead from sitting. I don’t use it much, mainly for hauling. My jumper cables are missing and I need help getting it started so that it won’t be in the way this winter for the plow guy. He can’t do my driveway where it sits. I’m putting out feelers for help but Foodie DD has not got a running car right now or cables. My other DD’s hubby is on the other side of the state working. I’m hoping he’ll come by tonight. Gosh I feel so trapped. Where is my husband when I need him? Oh, that’s right, he’s in Heaven. Lucky him! Anyway, the scale has softened my mood a bit.
🦃🦃🦃🦃 Day 80—11/10—181.0 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.2) Oh my, where have I been? I didn’t even realize the challenge was ending at the end of this month. It felt like we had lots more time! Looks like it’s time to get down & dirty! Anyway, SIL came last night and he jumped and moved truck. Problem solved. It was an excellent day yesterday. All my calorie and macro goals were met. I even got in an extra 7 minutes of exercise over and above the norm. Weight fluctuated with a small blip up (0.2). I hated to use the red X next to my weight post but it is what it is. I think my stubborn-as-a-bull Taurus body is just trying to hold on. I will (eventually) win this tug-of-war. Staying positive!

Week 12
Day 78—11/08—146.0 Today will be my first time attending the Maui Arbor Day Expo. They’ll have lectures about invasive species and pests, demonstrations, a plant sale and a free plant giveaway! My daughter use to attend every year until she moved away. But now that she’s back, she will be dragging my mom & I along with her. I’m sure we’ll enjoy it and come home with a plant or two!
Day 79—11/09—146.8 Understandable uptick after a nice evening out, including dinner, 1 glass of wine and a chocolate dessert. Trend weight (146.9) hasn’t been this low since the latter part of September.
Day 80—11/10—147.0 Dinner was a bit late last night.

Good Evening, Everyone!
Day 78—11/08— 159.4 - This was a bit of a lazy day. I had 2 eggs and toast for breakfast and vegetables for dinner. Daughter called.…she is starting to feel some pain from the surgery and she has no way to get in the shower to wash. She needs one of those chairs that sits over the tub so you can slide into the tub and sit. My ex had one but when he was able to walk again, he got rid of it. I wish I could buy her one but I can't. 😔
Day 79—11/09— 159.4 - I go to see my egg lady this afternoon....I only have 2 eggs left. I got my SNAP money before the appeal kicked in so I can get to the grocery store for some bread, milk, butter and maybe a couple other things. I ordered my Atkins shakes from Amazon....its nice they take SNAP for some groceries....so I will have them for an occasional breakfast. And I am not ashamed to admit I will be buying the ingredients to make a pie to take to Thanksgiving dinner for my family.
Day 80—11/10— 159.2 - A slow day today. Did some online Christmas shopping. I had the rest of the chicken and some mashed potatoes for lunch and some grapes. Dinner was a tuna/hard-boiled egg sandwich. The Eagles are playing tonight, so I am watching that....its not much of a game so far.

🎯 Started strong and then just got back into the maintain mode. Not complaining since it is lower than my last 209-211 holding pattern. But really want to strive to feeling more comfortable in a bathing suit before cruising in the South Pacific in March. Pep Talk Time! 6 months … half a year! Plenty of time to lose 20-30 pounds if I focus on 5 lbs per month … basically a pound a week. Dedicate the next 24 weeks to breaking through those mental barriers and pushing the holding pattern lower and lower. Next month’s goal … <2039/1: 209.8 / 208.4 - Yikes! Strong & Fit class

9/9: 208.6 / 207.8 - Crazy busy day coordinating and testing 58 adult ESL students plus my art class. My Marley Spoon box came in. I love the variety that they offer and the meals are healthy though the portions are too big. It made it really easy to serve pork loin with butternut squash and Brussels sprouts.
9/10: 207.8 / 207.9 - bike 30 min Today I’m devoting to watercolor and making sure I get on my bike. I had 2 compliments that I’m trimming up (especially the legs) … due to the almost daily bike ride. My hematologist oncologist visit was cancelled for today after they tried for 3 weeks to get insurance approval for the lab work. No reason to see him if we have no lab results to review. When I switch to Medicare in October the lab work will not need approval and will be covered. I guess there is one good thing about turning 65 soon.

His wife went into the hospital during the night (kidney stones) … she did get released with pain meds to return home Sunday afternoon. 2 grandkids (almost 4 and 6 months). And yes the 6 month old is still sick. My son flew out for work again early Monday morning. It has been crazy here. No telling how the scale will react to us heating up leftover lasagna, red beans and rice, etc etc etc. And with no exercise … well. I have had lots of cuddle times, lots of very early mornings, lots of clean up, car pool, gymnastics for the toddler, etc. Ready to try to return to my dull life today. We'll see how everyone is when they wake up!

@JimnKC Way to go surpassing your weekly goal
@age_is_just_a_number Do tell what you are cooking for your dinner party
@plantpowered I would like to know more about shoulder flexibility. I have been battling a sore shoulder since early September. Fitness Marshal used to stretch it out and make it better, but even that is not helping these days.

Hi : - )
I am Dawn. I turned 65 this round. I have changed my eating habits over time. I basically eat half of the amount that I used to, and have limited eating Ribs to once every 3 months instead of once per week. I eat everything, just less of it and/or less often. I topped out at 207, at 5'2" that is not healthy at all! I joined MFP at 198lbs. Ultimate health goal for my arthritic feet is 110-118.

Day 78—11/08 — 135.4 - Split shift today, tomorrow is a straight through shift so I need to take advantage of the break this afternoon to get the few beets that I pulled peeled and boiled. I will need to take lots of food with me to the restaurant tomorrow and beets are a great snack for me. People either love them or hate them, the same with Cilantro.
Day 79—11/09 — 136.4 - Late night dinners are catching up with me on the scale. Monday and Tuesday will be different, no evening jobs. Yesterday I peeled and sliced carrots during my break and when I got home from work sauteed them in 2tbsp of honey garlic sauce. I added 3/4 a cup of rice and at the end added some onion tops from some that I am growing inside in pots. Healthy food, and healthy foods all week. I just couldn't skip dinner after work, I was too hungry. I am really due for some indulgent food, maybe Monday night I will have some wings, I have a frozen box of the pre-cooked kind from Safeway. Straight through shift today, lots of food ready to take to eat throughout the day: an apple, some belle pepper strips, a chicken sandwich, my own potato salad. Yes, of course I could eat the restaurant food for free, but I choose not to because I would be 50 pounds heavier if I did that, and I don't want to be.
Day 80—11/10 — 137.2 - Still climbing, another late dinner. Re-thinking my indulgent meal for tonight! Day off tomorrow : - ) Sooooo looking forward to getting outside!
Day 81—11/11 — 137.4 - 6 chicken wings for dinner, but it was earlier, 7:30 which was great. Day off today, so dinner will be early again. Remembrance Day ceremony in the park at 11am, glad that I am not working so that I can attend.

Had a great evening yesterday catching up with some old friends. Definitely ate and drank too much.
But also moved a lot yesterday because I did a whole bunch of house cleaning before they arrived and did a 30 minute workout. My workout was from FitOn (a free app), PJs Bone Building Strength.
Maybe today will be the start of dialing things in.

I'm laughing because I do not cook. My husband does everything. Our friends arrived at 4pm yesterday (so we could catch up before dinner). Our kitchen in open-concept with counter-height stools. The three of us sat and drank wine/beer and ate cheese and crackers while we watched my husband prepare everything for dinner. We did offer to help a few times, but he declined. I said to them that I'm not allowed in the 'hot' part of the kitchen when he is cooking.
Anyway, we had roast chicken, roasted purple potatoes, roasted cauliflower, braised squash. Our friends brought homemade pumpkin bread. We made an old fashioned pudding (more like a sticky cake) for dessert.
I ate too much and the scale is up today. I didn't sleep well. But I'm not worried about it. I know what I need to do, I just need to actually do it.

The weight chart is for this round only since we're getting closer to the end of this round. Food was on track yesterday, and so was the exercise. I'm finally on the other side of the family crisis from last month, at least on the way it threw a wrench into my routines. The family is still dealing with the aftermath. Life does happen sometimes.
I'm loving all the Youtube cycling videos for my spin bike. Last night I worked out to a video a guy took while cycling through NYC. This guy was daring, so I had some virtual adrenaline while on my spin bike. Thirty minutes of spin plus 30 minutes of dance workout. I finished off with some stretches.
@dawnbgethealthy take care of that shoulder. I had a frozen shoulder about 10 years ago, and it took years to regain flexibility. I still do my PT exercises, and regular yoga sessions help a great deal. Dead hangs help too. I can't let my chest get stronger than my back. Above all, I must avoid our Blue Sofa of Doom. That thing puts me into a bad, bad sitting position. It calls to me, but I must resist…

Thoughts at the start of this round:
This round will be challenging as it includes the U.S. holidays of Labor Day, Halloween and Thanksgiving. All are big foodie or party and dessert type holidays in the U.S. There are also multiple birthday celebrations in my family. In addition, there will be a lot of travel which is traditional in the fall for me as I try to avoid as many icy driving trips as possible in the winter months. There will be lots of doctor appointments away from home as well as Christmas and gift-giving shopping in this round. I will have to make sure I stay on top of my plan in every moment I can and to make the necessary corrections every time the scale goes up. We can’t control the ingredients in restaurant food so portion control will be key when away from home. I will again aim for a 10 pound loss this round. Thanks for sharing your journey with me and allowing me to share mine. I am grateful for you all.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day 80—11/10—181.0 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.2) Oh my, where have I been? I didn’t even realize the challenge was ending at the end of this month. It felt like we had lots more time! Looks like it’s time to get down & dirty! Anyway, SIL came last night and he jumped and moved truck. Problem solved. It was an excellent day yesterday. All my calorie and macro goals were met. I even got in an extra 7 minutes of exercise over and above the norm. Weight fluctuated with a small blip up (0.2). I hated to use the red X next to my weight post but it is what it is. I think my stubborn-as-a-bull Taurus body is just trying to hold on. I will (eventually) win this tug-of-war. Staying positive!
🦃🦃🦃🦃 Day 81—11/11—183.4 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.2) Well, this is a shock! I did have a pretty severe glucose drop last night. Instead of grabbing for candy from my DGS’s partial loot he left here, I opted for a bowl of Campbell’s Vegetable soup with some Ritz crackers. I normally eat 2 meals per day (plus snack at night) so the soup was a 3rd meal for me. It put me over on carbs (which was what I was looking for) but probably over on calories too. If I stuck the bowl on the scale it would not have even weighed the 2 ½ lbs that showed up on the scale this morning so obviously this is sodium induced fluid retention. Especially since an earlier meal had been a bit high in sodium. I’m looking forward to seeing it drop back off in the next day or two. I also have not slept well the past couple of day. 4 hours or less per night. My fitbit daily readiness was 25 (out of 100) yesterday and only 15 today. Even on good days my sleep is never restful as I get up so much. It’s also a diabetic thing and I despise it. Anyway, sending a great big thank you to all the veteran’s who have served our country and protected our peace.

Day 78—11/08—146.0 Today will be my first time attending the Maui Arbor Day Expo. They’ll have lectures about invasive species and pests, demonstrations, a plant sale and a free plant giveaway! My daughter use to attend every year until she moved away. But now that she’s back, she will be dragging my mom & I along with her. I’m sure we’ll enjoy it and come home with a plant or two!
Day 79—11/09—146.8 Understandable uptick after a nice evening out, including dinner, 1 glass of wine and a chocolate dessert. Trend weight (146.9) hasn’t been this low since the latter part of September.

Good Evening Again!
@age_is_just_a_number , wow....to have a husband that cooks! I envy you. I'd be happy to be the sous chef.
Day 78—11/08— 159.4 - This was a bit of a lazy day. I had 2 eggs and toast for breakfast and vegetables for dinner. Daughter called.…she is starting to feel some pain from the surgery and she has no way to get in the shower to wash. She needs one of those chairs that sits over the tub so you can slide into the tub and sit. My ex had one but when he was able to walk again, he got rid of it. I wish I could buy her one but I can't. 😔
Day 79—11/09— 159.4 - I go to see my egg lady this afternoon....I only have 2 eggs left. I got my SNAP money before the appeal kicked in so I can get to the grocery store for some bread, milk, butter and maybe a couple other things. I ordered my Atkins shakes from Amazon....its nice they take SNAP for some groceries....so I will have them for an occasional breakfast. And I am not ashamed to admit I will be buying the ingredients to make a pie to take to Thanksgiving dinner for my family.
Day 80—11/10— 159.2 - A slow day today. Did some online Christmas shopping. I had the rest of the chicken and some mashed potatoes for lunch and some grapes. Dinner was a tuna/hard-boiled egg sandwich. The Eagles are playing tonight, so I will be watching that.
Day 81—11/11— 159.8 - I had some veggies for brunch and a piece of a stromboli for dinner. I don't care for stromboli, but it was free. I declined my ex's offer to take some home.
I bought some groceries from Amazon and they were delivered today along with a case of ginger ale for my daughter. It came in a plastic bag, which thought was dumb. Little did I realize how dumb was until I opened the bag and saw that one of the cans if soda had burst soaked everything else in the bag. I immediately took a couple pictures of the mess and then got on my laptop and got on CS chat. The reps were very helpful and in the end, they credited my SNAP for the 3 boxes of macaroni and the ginger ale.
And that was my excitement for the day.

@deepwoodslady - The canned soup has a ton of sodium. I bet after another day and lots of water the weight gain disappears as easily as it came on the morning after canned soup!

🎯 Started strong and then just got back into the maintain mode. Not complaining since it is lower than my last 209-211 holding pattern. But really want to strive to feeling more comfortable in a bathing suit before cruising in the South Pacific in March. Pep Talk Time! 6 months … half a year! Plenty of time to lose 20-30 pounds if I focus on 5 lbs per month … basically a pound a week. Dedicate the next 24 weeks to breaking through those mental barriers and pushing the holding pattern lower and lower. Next month’s goal … <2039/1: 209.8 / 208.4 - Yikes! Strong & Fit class

9/9: 208.6 / 207.8 - Crazy busy day coordinating and testing 58 adult ESL students plus my art class. My Marley Spoon box came in. I love the variety that they offer and the meals are healthy though the portions are too big. It made it really easy to serve pork loin with butternut squash and Brussels sprouts.
9/10: 207.8 / 207.9 - bike 30 min Today I’m devoting to watercolor and making sure I get on my bike. I had 2 compliments that I’m trimming up (especially the legs) … due to the almost daily bike ride. My hematologist oncologist visit was cancelled for today after they tried for 3 weeks to get insurance approval for the lab work. No reason to see him if we have no lab results to review. When I switch to Medicare in October the lab work will not need approval and will be covered. I guess there is one good thing about turning 65 soon.

11/12: 202.3 / 203.7I've been helping my DIL since Sunday while my son was out of town again … she had kidney stones so was in the hospital Sunday and the baby was sick (earache and virus). Thought everything was going great … my plan was to drop off the 4yrold at Mother's Day out and drive home. But when we woke the baby was running fever. So I stayed for most of the day so my DIL could attend the family picnic at the school with my granddaughter (obviously could not have the sick one up there). DIL can handle it now … no worry that she needs to return to the hospital since the stone passed. Returned home yesterday late afternoon exhausted around 4pm. But this time around I did not rely on fast food or take out. We ate from the fridge and it helped obviously on the scale. The roast I planned to grill Sunday needed to be cooked … so DH and I threw together a pot roast instead of grilling because we wanted the meat well done. It had been in the fridge since Saturday. Now to hop back on my bike today.

Day 78—11/08: DNW – went on a great nature hike with DD23, went out to brunch and stuck to a salad with grilled shrimp. We made a little Thanksgiving dinner for the three of us and I did pretty well then too, though definitely above calories for the day.
Day 79—11/09: DNW – had a great walk with DH, then hung out with DD23 at a place on the beach, had cocktails and split a hummus/veggie platter. We lucked out with weather, were able to sit outside both days this weekend – one last little spark of summer!
Day 80—11/10: DNW – went off the rails today, ate whatever I wanted and added a bottle of wine on top of that. I think it was a little related to DD23 leaving, I was very melancholy and definitely was eating my feelings.
Day 81—11/11: 213.0 – not as bad as I expected – did a good cardio workout & stretch & got back on track..
Day 82—11/12: 211.6 – maybe I still have a shot at a loss this week, or at least breaking even. I’m a little shocked I’m not up more on the scale, I guess the good choices I made over the weekend weren’t totally blown by my day off the rails.

I fixed a couple of typos in the weight section. My Fitbit scale is now sporadically spitting numbers into their app. I found errors in a couple of my manual entries here, so I went with the scale's numbers. Slight difference. Anyway, I've been much more consistent the past 10 days, and I find that the 10-day averages work best for me for so many reasons.
Yesterday was yoga, strength, and a tiny bit of low intensity spin in the evening.
Have a great day!

Hi : - )
I am Dawn. I turned 65 this round. I have changed my eating habits over time. I basically eat half of the amount that I used to, and have limited eating Ribs to once every 3 months instead of once per week. I eat everything, just less of it and/or less often. I topped out at 207, at 5'2" that is not healthy at all! I joined MFP at 198lbs. Ultimate health goal for my arthritic feet is 110-118.

Day 78—11/08 — 135.4 - Split shift today, tomorrow is a straight through shift so I need to take advantage of the break this afternoon to get the few beets that I pulled peeled and boiled. I will need to take lots of food with me to the restaurant tomorrow and beets are a great snack for me. People either love them or hate them, the same with Cilantro.
Day 79—11/09 — 136.4 - Late night dinners are catching up with me on the scale. Monday and Tuesday will be different, no evening jobs. Yesterday I peeled and sliced carrots during my break and when I got home from work sauteed them in 2tbsp of honey garlic sauce. I added 3/4 a cup of rice and at the end added some onion tops from some that I am growing inside in pots. Healthy food, and healthy foods all week. I just couldn't skip dinner after work, I was too hungry. I am really due for some indulgent food, maybe Monday night I will have some wings, I have a frozen box of the pre-cooked kind from Safeway. Straight through shift today, lots of food ready to take to eat throughout the day: an apple, some belle pepper strips, a chicken sandwich, my own potato salad. Yes, of course I could eat the restaurant food for free, but I choose not to because I would be 50 pounds heavier if I did that, and I don't want to be.
Day 80—11/10 — 137.2 - Still climbing, another late dinner. Re-thinking my indulgent meal for tonight! Day off tomorrow : - ) Sooooo looking forward to getting outside!
Day 81—11/11 — 137.4 - 6 chicken wings for dinner, but it was earlier, 7:30 which was great. Day off today, so dinner will be early again. Remembrance Day ceremony in the park at 11am, glad that I am not working so that I can attend.
Day 82—11/12 — 136.8 - I had a productive day off. So far no shifts have come up for my auxiliary job today, so after work I will likely do some more in the garden. I truly hate daylight savings time - because of my schedule. I have one hour less of daylight after work, so am limited to what I can achieve. I kind of like it dark in the mornings instead. Hopefully this is the last year that we do this.
I went to the campground at Jimsmith Lake, as I did last week on my day off. Nothing like being in the forest to refresh and revitalize.
I stopped at Elizabeth Lake along the way to see if any ice was forming for skating yet for skating, but nope.
Okay, a shitload of photos:
The surprising amount of things that are still growing as we approach mid-November:
Dill
Mint
The beet garden that I am currently working on bit by bit
Elizabeth Lake which is mostly one foot deep which will be the first place to skate outdoors
Selkirk, Purcell, and Rocky mountains are spectacular once on the middle of this lake in the winter
The campground that I love to walk in Spring, Fall, and Winter when it is not open. Nice sites separated from each other
There will be skating on this lake also, further into the winter, like January
There is a small skiff of snow up there in the shady areas

@Lilylady3k I've also been eating some cottage cheese the last couple of days as it easily helps me up my protein. It also makes a nice little side dish since I am not a vegetable eater. However, Ouch on the sodium! Wow!

@Lilylady3k Excellent scale read today for you! Was it all the running around taking care of kids that did it, or just that your kind heart deserved it? Hmmm….I think a little of both! Let's keep going, my friend! Yum on the roast!
@dawnbgethealthy What beautiful pics to wake up to this morning! My favorite garden pic is the beet in gloved hand. I'm titling it "worthy work up close"! Love the nature walk pics. Everything looks so tidy, so refreshing, so unscathed. Thanks for sharing.

Hello, Wednesday!
Day 78—11/08— 159.4 - This was a bit of a lazy day. I had 2 eggs and toast for breakfast and vegetables for dinner. Daughter called.…she is starting to feel some pain from the surgery and she has no way to get in the shower to wash. She needs one of those chairs that sits over the tub so you can slide into the tub and sit. My ex had one but when he was able to walk again, he got rid of it. I wish I could buy her one but I can't. 😔
Day 79—11/09— 159.4 - I go to see my egg lady this afternoon....I only have 2 eggs left. I got my SNAP money before the appeal kicked in so I can get to the grocery store for some bread, milk, butter and maybe a couple other things. I ordered my Atkins shakes from Amazon....its nice they take SNAP for some groceries....so I will have them for an occasional breakfast. And I am not ashamed to admit I will be buying the ingredients to make a pie to take to Thanksgiving dinner for my family.
Day 80—11/10— 159.2 - A slow day today. Did some online Christmas shopping. I had the rest of the chicken and some mashed potatoes for lunch and some grapes. Dinner was a tuna/hard-boiled egg sandwich. The Eagles are playing tonight, so I will be watching that.
Day 81—11/11— 159.8 - I had some veggies for brunch and a piece of a stromboli for dinner. I don't care for stromboli, but it was free. I declined my ex's offer to take some home.
I bought some groceries from Amazon and they were delivered today along with a case of ginger ale for my daughter. It came in a plastic bag, which thought was dumb. Little did I realize how dumb was until I opened the bag and saw that one of the cans if soda had burst soaked everything else in the bag. I immediately took a couple pictures of the mess and then got on my laptop and got on CS chat. The reps were very helpful and in the end, they credited my SNAP for the 3 boxes of macaroni and the ginger ale.
And that was my excitement for the day.
Day 82—11/12— 160.2 - Well, I now know what stromboli does to me. I won't be eating it again and I won't miss it. I'm going out to dinner later...not sure where yet.
I am getting a draftsman's chair for my kitchen. It has an adjustable height so I can sit at the stove or the counter and prepare meals. I have needed this for months and my son told me to get one and he would pay for it. I am so happy!! I miss cooking.

Day 78—11/08—146.0 Today will be my first time attending the Maui Arbor Day Expo. They’ll have lectures about invasive species and pests, demonstrations, a plant sale and a free plant giveaway! My daughter use to attend every year until she moved away. But now that she’s back, she will be dragging my mom & I along with her. I’m sure we’ll enjoy it and come home with a plant or two!
Day 79—11/09—146.8 Understandable uptick after a nice evening out, including dinner, 1 glass of wine and a chocolate dessert. Trend weight (146.9) hasn’t been this low since the latter part of September.
Day 80—11/10—147.0 Dinner was a bit late last night.

Thoughts at the start of this round:
This round will be challenging as it includes the U.S. holidays of Labor Day, Halloween and Thanksgiving. All are big foodie or party and dessert type holidays in the U.S. There are also multiple birthday celebrations in my family. In addition, there will be a lot of travel which is traditional in the fall for me as I try to avoid as many icy driving trips as possible in the winter months. There will be lots of doctor appointments away from home as well as Christmas and gift-giving shopping in this round. I will have to make sure I stay on top of my plan in every moment I can and to make the necessary corrections every time the scale goes up. We can’t control the ingredients in restaurant food so portion control will be key when away from home. I will again aim for a 10 pound loss this round. Thanks for sharing your journey with me and allowing me to share mine. I am grateful for you all.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day 80—11/10—181.0 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.2)
Day 81—11/11—183.4 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.2) Well, this is a shock! I did have a pretty severe glucose drop last night. Instead of grabbing for candy from my DGS’s partial loot he left here, I opted for a bowl of Campbell’s Vegetable soup with some Ritz crackers. I normally eat 2 meals per day (plus snack at night) so the soup was a 3rd meal for me. It put me over on carbs (which was what I was looking for) but probably over on calories too. If I stuck the bowl on the scale it would not have even weighed the 2 ½ lbs that showed up on the scale this morning so obviously this is sodium induced fluid retention. Especially since an earlier meal had been a bit high in sodium. I’m looking forward to seeing it drop back off in the next day or two. I also have not slept well the past couple of day. 4 hours or less per night. My fitbit daily readiness was 25 (out of 100) yesterday and only 15 today. Even on good days my sleep is never restful as I get up so much. It’s also a diabetic thing and I despise it. Anyway, sending a great big thank you to all the veteran’s who have served our country and protected our peace.
🦃🦃🦃🦃 Day 82—11/12—182.0 ✅ (Trend Weight: 183.1) My food plan was good yesterday and no sugar drops. I had switched my lighter meal to night and my heavier meal midday and that did not work for me. I switched them back. Yes, it means I lay down for bed & tv with more calories unprocessed, but it helps (so far) with the glucose. I got kicked off my exercise bike last night after 22 minutes by my son, but that’s okay because he definitely needs to lose weight more than me. While he did his spinning I made our 9:30 pm dinner then read 3 chapters of my book club book (meeting is Monday). I’m a little behind on the reading. I also got some house cleaning in which got me up off my retired derriere. I mainly worked on the 2nd floor so there were lots of extra stairs yesterday. The 2nd floor mainly belongs to my DGS and he will be back tomorrow to nice smelling freshly washed sheets and blankets and all his crumbs vacuumed up. He will be turning 8 on November 29th s so he is still at an age where he appreciates everything. Those teenage years aren’t here yet!
