I know the scale will be a bit all over the place this round with hormones and a couple of social days in the middle, but just because the numbers are inconsistent doesn't mean my habits have to be. Planning to stick to protein-rich diet, mostly whole food, keeping active and staying focused on my goal.
38 year old female, 5'2", Australia. Just a couple of kilos to lose then back to maintenance.
SW - 90kg / 198.5lb - 2013
GW - 57-59kg / 125-130lb - Reached 2018 and again in November 2024 after having 2 kids
RSW - 62.1kg / 136.9lb
RGW - 61.1kg / 134.7lb
Round focus habits
- Drink water π¦
- No alcohol Monday-Thursday πΊ
- Home prepped meals π¨βπ³
- Planned snacking π
11/17 - 62.1kg / 136.9lb - Up a bit on the previous day. Hormones, pasta dinner etc. Onwards and downwards!

π· 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 315 (my 245th).
Goals for every round;
- First and foremost, no feeding frenzies β 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.
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, itβs 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 β 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 π. 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".
11/16 139.2 (trend 139.9) Very happy with myself this round, moved back into the 139βs (trend is there too today!), recognising that this 1.6 pound loss is due to consistency & no binge. Letβs see if I can lose another pound next round.
EW Rnd 314 139.2
SW Rnd 315 139.2
11/17 139.2 (trend 139.8) β invited by DD & family for Sunday lunch & day with them. Managed to get out early for a brisk 4 mile walk before we left for the hour and a half journey.

11/17: 203.2 (finally saw movement on the scale! I worked hard yesterday and am excited to see my efforts rewarded. I went to a good WW workshop last night and I shared and it was super helpful. She said "it sounds like your cheque is in the mail" meaning all my efforts will be paid off eventually. I just have to stay true and keep on going. My husband goes out of town tomorrow so it will be super different around my house but I'm going to try my hardest to stick to my goals. I vow to not have fast food ONCE! I know I can do it.)

1/17: 159.0 This is my last super crazy busy week, hopefully for a good while! Constant mantra in my head, "you just have to make it through this week, you just have to make it through this week". I'm going take a few minutes this morning and write out a big list for the week and tape it on the wall and cross of things as I accomplish them, think it will help to see that list get smaller and smaller as the week progresses. Some of this is work related, which is what it is, but a lot is stuff I have put on myself - so I have to remind myself, you are this busy because these are things you enjoy & want to do BUT if doing them stresses you out what's the point? So, taking a little mindfulness moment to take a deep breath & enjoy the chaos.

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND: 180.2
π¦π¦π¦π¦ 11/17-178.8 β (Trend Weight β 182.1) Woot Woot! Iβve made it into the new decade of the 170βs. Now for the dancing back & forth over the line stage. I envision the scene of Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed in βItβs a Wonderful Lifeβ as George & Mary Bailey (before marriage) dancing to and from that line that opens to the pool. Legs dangling over the edge, poised to fall in, over and over. And they absolutely do. And I will too. Likely many times. However, Iβll try not to focus on the water but, like them, enjoy the dance. Iβm so happy today I could scream! Iβve looked over my records for the past (many) years and traditionally I gain 2-4 pounds just in November alone. And then there is Decemberβ¦. However, I am going to focus on the fact that itβs mine to keep or mine to lose. I can decide.

11/17- 172.1 - Not a very pretty number but this weekend didn't exactly go as I had hoped or planned, either. I was a little better with reducing alcohol consumption (even managing to forego a drink at one location without much notice or questioning which was nice). Food wasn't ideal so I did my best with the options I had. I did notice myself eating too quickly and by that time, I was already overfull. At least I caught it! Progress is still progress no matter how small. Gym this week - already went this morning. Have lunches and dinners prepped with plenty of healthy options for breakfast.3 -
So happy for you Donna! Love the visual of dancing to and from the edge of the pool cover in Itβs a Wonderful Life. Fluctuations certainly are part of this process!
