"Maintenance" since June 2017
OK, so this is the first time I'm posting a Wednesday weigh-in where I am really outside of my 180-185lb range goal! Need to reign that back in (and WILL!!!))
Been celebrating multiple family members' November birthdays. This past weekend we had a HUGE celebration at my house with tons of food. And of course, oodles and oodles of leftovers after everyone left. I was raised by a Mom who spent time literally starving in her youth, and for whom wasting food is the ultimate sin. So, I simply cannot throw out good food! But we're nearly at the end of our celebratory food stores and then life will get back to normal. This is all part of living in maintenance mode...
Best wishes to all,
Birgit

Break It Up. Talk yourself into exercising for a few minutes.
Make It Convenient. When you're busy, don't spend 30 minutes driving to a gym. ...

Oops!! Well I know its from too many salty choices and no moment for the past 3 days, I've been sick...again! Sore throat, extreme exhaustion, and severe headache!! So I'm OK, I will drop this in no time once I'm feeling better!!!
I'm going to be too busy to join in the exercise challenge this time, but I might still post my weight each week just to stay accountable, that I don't gain too much! Good luck to every one that is participating!!!2 -
Hi! I will drop out of this challenge because no point to continue since I am sure I gained tons of weight and this will be the 3rd week I missed to weight-in but life is going back to normal soon so will join the fitness challenge .... is there an specific format we need to follow?1
-
HI happygirlxxx! You must do what makes you feel good, but definitely don't drop off this thread! You are doing so well in all aspects!
I think tdunnegan listed a format... but the challenge is just exercise in general... so whatever is good for you. Personally I do nothing at all so my goals will be tiny : )
and I hope it will help my energy level and get me back on track to good food.
So I'm reviewing my choices. My downward turn into inconsistency happened when I became more lax with carbs and sugar... thinking that little can't hurt. Well, apparently it can because I can't do just a little. So I'm trying to get back to my very healthy eating from the beginning of my journey. Higher fat and protein and virtually no processed carbs.
So I'm working on nutritious food and stopping emotional eating and I'm hoping additional activity will help me focus on this.4 -

Not a good week, haven't felt good this week. I've had a craving for salty foods, now I'm retaining fluids, I'm achy and feeling crappy most of the time. When I feel like this I tend to lose any will power I have and eat comfort foods, i.e. fast foods!
Today is a new day and I WILL get myself back into healthy eating again! Hopefully this fluid will be gone by Saturday so I'm at my goal and in wonderland again by the end of the challenge on Saturday.

I'm another one with a small gain this week, not sure why, lack of exercise maybe. I'm busy, lots to do but not necessarily things that involve much physical effort. I seem to be really tired all the time and not sleeping well.
Still, trying to be positive, I've still shifted a reasonable amount so far, and yet again I am pruning my wardrobe of oversized clothes. My hairdresser was cooing over my visible weight loss, and, grabbing a handful of loose material on the side of my jeans, said "Look, all this extra!"
Bless her - so those jeans are downgraded to gardening duties and I went shopping - again! I was thrilled, as I was comfortably into the next size down for me in jeans from a shop with notoriously mean sizing. I didn't buy them as although the waist and hips felt fine, I do have huge thighs and the legs felt tight (genetic - thanks, Dad! Why couldn't I have got Mum's lovely slim legs? LOL). But still, I was in, zipped up with ease - and it felt good.
I've just been into my stash of clothes under the bed, with little notes pinned to everything telling myself that 12lbs ago, this and that were too tight/small. Later I will try them on, see what I can use now. My wardrobe is overstuffed, I do buy a lot, silly really, and as I lose weight, there is so much more choice. Help! 2 -

@happygirlxxx You just got back from vacation, trust me, that extra weight will come off as you begin to get back to normal eating.
@newjax2017 Too many carbs does me in too, at least that is what I have noticed over the years. I still eat them of course, but try to eat more nutritious ones and fewer processed ones. You are figuring it all out and have a plan. Pat yourself on the back!
@jam5660 Salt will do us in all the time. The good news is the weight drops as soon as we don't continue on high sodium. Drink lots of water, watch your salt intake for now and you will see a loss. Your gain is only temporary!
@bapcarrier I hope you feel better. Nobody thinks dieting when they don't feel well. You will get back to Onederland, no worries there. In the meantime, take good care of you!
@birdygirl15 You may have had a small gain on the scale but you had a huge loss with fitting in smaller clothes! What a thrill that is! And it's always a great mind booster when someone actually notices our new size. That alone is a huge mental boost and motivator. Keep up the good work and enjoy wearing all of your newfound clothes!
@BarneyRubbleMD You have a fantastic overall weight loss. Now that you've got your binging out of the way, you'll get back on track and start the downward trend again. You've come so far and don't want to get back to where you were. You can lose that gain, you've got this.
Have a great Thursday everyone and to those who are feeling a bit under the weather, feel better soon!

Thursday Truth ... I reset the My Progress ticker tracker today because I realized that I am so close to making my 2nd 10% weight loss goal and I want to see what happens when I finally reach a goal I put on that Ticker! ....
When I started the ticker I put in the whole shebang ... 114.4 pounds to lose, and it was very discouraging to see just how much I actually had to lose, so I kind of stopped looking at it. Then I joined a year long calorie weight loss challenge calling to lose 1 lb a week and set my ticker for that lofty goal ... And there it sat. Again, it became discouraging to see how far I still had to go. This morning I remembered that my goal had been, at the start, to just lose 5% of my weight. But I prefer 10% and that's how I set my mind once I really got serious about doing 'something' about my overweight and awful health profile. I was taking 10 different medications a day when I 'found' MFP. Today, I take just 3. And, in another 3 pounds I will have met my second 10% goal.
My weight loss journey reads like a soap opera ... up and down, crisis after crisis; nothing stable, nothing permanent ... That first 5% goal? it became 10% at a WW group at work in 2008. That was the year I reached 278 pounds in a steady incline during the previous 26 years. However I wasn't able to maintain that 10% loss, and regained almost all of it by the time 2 years had passed. And there I 'sat' for the next 4 years ... up and down in that narrow 10% range. Coming close to reaching it then going back up. A lot of was due to my eating habits.
Breakfast and lunch were always on target ... bought from the cafeteria at work. But about 3:30 PM each day it would start to do downhill very rapidly. I'd have a vending machine snack to 'tide' me over until I met my boyfriend for dinner at about 6:30 PM. Of course, being from a vending machine it was either salty or sweet and full of fat. Plus, I'd combine that with a vending machine cappuccino. Supper was either a restaurant meal or one of us would cook at our homes ... we took turns. When we weren't having dinner together I frequently visited a fast food joint on my way home to bring dinner. The only time my kitchen saw any action was on the days I cooked for company. Also, we had gotten into the habit of a snack while watching TV or playing games ... cheese and crackers and fruit, ice cream and toppings, fruit and nuts. ... My food budget was out-of-site expensive and gourmet! ... So ... eating the way I did, how could I expect my weight to go down and stay down? How could I expect to get off the 10 different medications I was now taking?
In 2012, I had a physical at my doctor's office and his nurse practitioner called me up on the phone to give me a good dressing down. I had come into the doctors office gasping for air, unable to breath while walking. My feet and legs were so swollen I had to wear flip flops in January because my shoes wouldn't fit. My blood glucose was sky-high, as was my blood pressure. I had developed sleep apnea. My liver was so fatty and enlarged that it pressed my diaphragm up into my lungs and heart, and I looked like I was wearing a swimming inner tube around my middle.
That year I started logging my food after I found a calorie counter program online. I didn't lose any weight that year, but I did start making better choices ... and then I found MFP and decided to try it to see how it compared. That was in 2013, and over the course of that year I once again got close to my first 10% loss mark. However, in all this time since then, I have not been this close to making my second 10% goal ... and now I am so close I can almost see the number on the scale.
What has changed in the past 5 years? Well, one that hasn't changed is that my weight still goes up and down and up again. However each time it goes up the gain is smaller and each time it goes down I reach I new low weight. This tells me that I am improving on how I manage my food. Something that has changed is that I am not ashamed to talk about my weight, and I am not afraid to take a good long look at my body in a full length mirror. Lately I've noticed that when I am laying in bed I find my hands tracing the curves of my body because now I can feel curves instead of bulges. Am I still fat? Yes ... my weight is till in the obese range. However now I can see a better future because I am better able to stay on track. And, I really believe this would not have happened had I not found MFP and the community pages it offers. Reading about other people who have struggled, are still struggling, and who have succeeded has helped me so much to come to terms with my own food demons, to accept and love myself as I am instead of withholding that until some future when I will be slimmer than now ... because to hate myself fat is a self-defeating emotion. To love myself as I am allows me to help myself do better because I am worthy.5 -

@b_lisieux fingers crossed!! hope to lose the weight quickly. When I just got back weighted myself and I had gained 5lbs, so actually not that bad considering all I ate while on vacation but with family visiting we have been trying for them to enjoy as much as possible of what Milan has to offer ... so that has included a lot of food .... the other day had ravioli filled of risotto with a pecorino sauce ... I was in heaven! Last night had some gelato and dulce de leche yum!! So even though quantity is not huge, definitively rich in calories.
I have not seen the weekly report yet posted by Barb, so I might have time to weigh-in tomorrow and scare myself a bit LOL ... that might get me into gear to start dieting again
@Nikion901 love your last sentence ... "To love myself as I am allows me to help myself do better because I am worthy" ... very true!!
@newjax2017 might not finish the challenge, but definitively not dropping off from the group!! Its just that I think I am so far off my goal, that I am scare of stepping on the scale but reality is that eventually I will have to ... its either now, next week but need to number to use as reference (even though I can feel my pants a but tighter and my boobs (TMI?) bigger ... so that is why I know definitively more than 5lbs). Anyway, need to put on my big girl pants and face the scale!! 
Have a great Thursday you all!2 -

I fear that if I don't hold myself accountable to at least posting my weigh-ins here, I will stop logging my food and eventually stop logging on to MFP altogether. In addition, I will do the exercise challenge also.

I don't know about anyone else but I think the time change has affected my progress (or lack thereof). I was doing well taking my big fur baby for a walk nearly everyday. Now that it is dark by the time I get home, there has been virtually no walks. My energy, in general, has been pretty awful. I am equating the two.
Until next time; wishing everyone Peace
, Love and Weight Loss
