    Round 312

    Oct 18-27, 2025

    Female, 54, 5”1’

    HW: 209.5 **was higher but I just didn’t get on the scales

    RSW: 197.0

    RGW: 195

    FGW: 175

    UGW: 140

    I’m Kira, working, an empty nester, and married. I have tried many diets and programs over the years, but nothing has worked for long. Now I am working on loving life and trying to be healthier.

    You don’t have to be perfect; you just must be better than you were before.

    Goals for this round are:

    1. Check in every day.
    2. Weigh in every day.
    3. Drink my water every day.
    4. Get my step count to 10k daily

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

    10/18 – 196.6 glad to see 196 again. Had a non scale victory today. I am wearing a pair of pants that I haven’t been able to wear in almost a year, and they are comfortable!!!

    10/19 – 195.8 – wow, didn’t see this coming. Yesterday was a good day. Ended up chatting with an old co-worker, we agreed to keep in better contact. I am so happy with myself. I didn’t have any junk food yesterday.

    I’m back, ready to go. 

    Goals for the rest of 2025

    • Eat mindfully. 🍎
    • Regain regular exercise habit beyond gardening. Walk! 👟
    • Check in here daily. ✏️

    Trend Weight starting back 10/7 was 199.7; end of last round — R311, 198.4

    Date, Trend Weight, Comments

    10/18 - 198.1
    Wow—I forgot to log in the past two days, but here I am. 😊 This afternoon I’m planting bulbs for a friend who has recently moved to an assisted living cottage. I’m afraid she has probably ordered a lot of bulbs—I can almost feel my sore muscle already! I really hurt after planting my own last week, which shows I need to move my butt—literally—more. Anyway, it’s a beautiful day, so it will be nice. I thought I’d share this cute little girl beanie I knit to donate to our holiday fair fundraiser. I may have to do another—quick and easy and so cute! Have a lovely weekend, all! 

    10/19 - 198.1
    We finally are getting some rain—yay! Good day to make the soup I’ve been threatening to make for a while, but it just wasn’t soup weather. Going with veggie soup with lots of veggies and some red lentil rotini for protein. I like to freeze & bag “soup muffins” to pull out and microwave for quick, low-cal lunches. DH and I planted about 80 bulbs yesterday for our friends—wasn’t too bad with the drill bit made for that, although we were both whipped when we got home! I hope you’re all having a great weekend!

    Day/Weight/Comment

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 182.0

    10/18-182.4 (Trend Weight – 183.6) I’m starting the round 0.4 up from yesterday but I think this is just a fluid adjustment after such a large drop yesterday (5.2 lbs overnight!) Trend weight continues to go down and I’m feeling pretty good. I may be traveling today with DD and DGS a couple of hours each way to do some Halloween shopping for costumes and such. Up, up, up will go the water weight if we go. The fluid retention seems to be getting worse when I travel. I’ll have to talk to my cardiologist about that. My appt is in December.

    🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃 10/19-185.2 ❌ (Trend Weight: 183.7) Golden Corral for lunch out of town. We managed to find both their Halloween costumes except for one important piece needed for grandson. We may have to turn to Facebook Marketplace for help.

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 312 (my 242nd).

    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
    • to have a totally 10-day binge free round.
    • Would like to lose a pound round.

    I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.

    image-4e272af4057aa8-f7af.png

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

    10/17 DNW – 3.85 miles walked after we’d arrived on site for long weekend break. Can’t say I’m not disappointed at the “lack of progress” this round, need to work harder next.

    SW Rnd 312 DNW

    10/18 DNW – 13.32 miles walked yesterday along the canal towpath to Melksham, today we head in the other direction to Devizes.

    10/19 DNW – 10.68 miles walked, it was a wonderful walk along the tow path at the side of Caen Hill flight of locks in the magnificent autumnal tree colours.

    10/20 DNW - a very wet day, so we visited Lacock Abbey & village, very pretty, use as film sets for Harry Potter, Cranmore, Pride & Prejudice & more.

I fully commit to a daily renewal of #MindBodySoul. 📖 SW R312 = ⚖️132.6 BHAG 128-130lbs by 11/7. (Pushed date back). Is this doable? - Come on! 💪🏻 ***Rnd 312 to 131.x by 10/27.  🏆💦📖

    **********

    10/18 got up too early this morning & then forgot to weigh. (I raced to turn on a tennis match and got lost in the match!) Enjoyed 🚶‍♀️💗5 mi WV trek. Tucker, soccer, late burgers (no bun). Positive day.  Inexplicable ailing shoulder & wrist so I did not 🏋️‍♀️. Will try today. A celebratory dinner tonight – planning ahead. I’m trying not to beat myself up for not being able to lose 2 to 3 pounds… What gives? 10/2024 @ 128lbs for a solid few mos . 10/2023 @ 131lbs same . Now is the time. I realize that it’s not that big of a deal - it’s more the mental gymnastics & challenge just to “BE” where I am the most comfortable & confident. Want to reduce BF% and building strength on this journey. Good luck to everyone this round!

    10/19 same as yesterday.… I got up to watch a tennis match AGAIN at 4AM and DNW. Yesterday: only 🚶‍♀️7k - perfect nutrition until dinner. Splurged & ordered butternut squash risotto with brown butter. At least I ate only half. Divine. Reminded me of how much I love food. I really, really LOVE FOOD. ok, ok…Back to mindful discipline. Ready to nail the next eight days! 

    *** saw an interesting take yesterday on how to “reframe” “goals”. Instead of, “my goal is to lose 2 pounds… “ or “goal is to work out twice this week”. Think of it as: I have DECIDED to lose 2 lbs and work out twice this week.  Reframing “goals” as “decisions” changes your mindset & actions.  I’ve “decided” to implement this “nuance” moving forward! ONWARD! #HSF #MindBodySoul

    10/20 133.0

    ➡️The older I get, the more I realize you can reinvent yourself as many times as you need. New habits. New mindsets. New standards. New people. You’re never stuck. You’re allowed to change. Today, tomorrow, and as many times as it takes to create the life you want. Happy Monday! ONWARD! #HSF #MindBodySoul

    Round 312 18–27 Oct 2025

    Please join us starting on 18 October for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 312

    Anyone can join us at any time during the round.

    Join us! If we stay mindful, we can do this, you can do this.

    Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

    Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post every day to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non-scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share. Make the board your own - track what is important for YOUR JOURNEY. 

    FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all the posts.

    Goal Weight: Dr. Says she’s happy when I’m around 150, but I wouldn’t mind being more like 147-150 in maintenance (if I ever get there!)

    Hello JGMTD friends. I’m back! I’ve thought about you a lot over the last months, but haven’t really been tracking much since March. Therefore, I’m up 6 pounds since we last chatted. But I’m back and making the commitment to track and check in. Those are my goals for this round—simply to get back in the groove with food, exercise, and checking in here. 

    EW Round 289 (March 2025): 151.4

    SW Round 312: 157.4

    10/20—157.4 Spent a wonderful fall weekend in the NC mountains with DD and her family. 

    Side Note: Ugh, I forgot about the formatting changes to MFP right before I went AWOL. So, how are y'all eliminating all the double spacing again? I had to just back them out just now, but I think I remember there was a solution that was easier than this.

    Thank you @_JeffreyD_, I will try to figure that out tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

    @itladyee That is SUCH a cute puppy! I'm sure she's a handful right now, but enjoy every minute of her puppy days. They pass quickly.

    10/18-137-Baked a chicken and I ate all I wanted along with some chard. Today is. Church meeting then pot luck an I’m bringing these little sandwiches made out of crescent rolls and broccoli salad. Playing pickle ball first and bringing my protein drink so I don’t show up to the meeting/potluck famished.

    10/20-DNW-Sort of ate whatever I wanted to this weekend and it’s going to take me a couple of days to get back to where I was.

    Round 312
    Oct 18-27, 2025
    Female, 54, 5”1’
    HW: 209.5 **was higher but I just didn’t get on the scales
    RSW: 197.0
    RGW: 195
    FGW: 175
    UGW: 140

    I’m Kira, working, an empty nester, and married. I have tried many diets and programs over the years, but nothing has worked for long. Now I am working on loving life and trying to be healthier.

    You don’t have to be perfect; you just must be better than you were before.

    Goals for this round are:

    1. Check in every day.
    2. Weigh in every day.
    3. Drink my water every day.
    4. Get my step count to 10k daily

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

    10/18 – 196.6 glad to see 196 again. Had a non scale victory today. I am wearing a pair of pants that I haven’t been able to wear in almost a year, and they are comfortable!!!

    10/19 – 195.8 – wow, didn’t see this coming. Yesterday was a good day. Ended up chatting with an old co-worker, we agreed to keep in better contact. I am so happy with myself. I didn’t have any junk food yesterday.

    10/20 – 94.8 – wow again not sure that I believe that this is real. Last night I worked the Halloween Spooktacular. Had a good time watching the young kids run and laugh at all the displays. I will be working it again on Friday night.

    Wow—I forgot to log in the past two days, but here I am. 😊 This afternoon I’m planting bulbs for a friend who has recently moved to an assisted living cottage. I’m afraid she has probably ordered a lot of bulbs—I can almost feel my sore muscle already! I really hurt after planting my own last week, which shows I need to move my butt—literally—more. Anyway, it’s a beautiful day, so it will be nice. I thought I’d share this cute little girl beanie I knit to donate to our holiday fair fundraiser. I may have to do another—quick and easy and so cute! Have a lovely weekend, all! 

    10/19 - 198.1
    We finally are getting some rain—yay! Good day to make the soup I’ve been threatening to make for a while, but it just wasn’t soup weather. Going with veggie soup with lots of veggies and some red lentil rotini for protein. I like to freeze & bag “soup muffins” to pull out and microwave for quick, low-cal lunches. DH and I planted about 80 bulbs yesterday for our friends—wasn’t too bad with the drill bit made for that, although we were both whipped when we got home! I hope you’re all having a great weekend! 

    10/20 - 198.1
    Happy Monday, everyone!

    10/18 - DNW

    10/19 - DNW

    10/20 - 169.5 - This is 1/2 lb lower than Friday so I did something right over the weekend, despite not tracking anything. I got back to the gym this morning and have meals planned for today. I have room for snacks later this afternoon. Macros aren't perfect as I have far too much fat left but not enough carbs and no protein to be able to hit without eating spoonfuls of olive oil to do so. Instead, I'll focus on eating whole foods to meet my calorie goal (deficit). I need to get a walk in here shortly (maybe after I post this since it's still my lunch hour) if I want to have any hope of hitting my step goal today. I'm a tad bit behind on water, but not so much I can't catch up with some dedicated sipping through the afternoon. I have until Wednesday next week to make as much progress as possible - I leave to head home for 5 days and come home the 6th day - meaning I won't be tracking and will be relying on my body cues and mindfulness. I'm hoping the next week or so until then I can really focus on my goals to get into habit and re-train myself to recognize my body's signals and proper portion control.
