@BSchoberg Bumps in weight the day after a great workout session are really common in my experience! Frustrating temporarily until there is a whoosh, but you've got this!!!!

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

P.z. sorry if my zucchini noodles note breaks the rules of the board, it seems off topic.

👍🏻 Food suggestions are always welcome. Sounds like a tasty salad!

11/12 - 191.8! Stopped tracking for a while because of lots of personal drama occupying my time, I kept forgetting to track here, but I miss it because I was making good progress with it. I've made some progress on my own without tracking anything for the past 20 days, which is fantastic and I love being so close to the -25 lbs mark, but not as much progress made as I'd like, because in my stressed state, I was turning towards junk food I wouldn't normally eat. Things like McDonalds which I didnt even eat before starting to loose weight o_O Things have calmed down a bit, my dog is still very sick though and will likely need surgery soon which has been stressful, but I'm accepting things more and ready to get back on the proverbial MFP horse. Managed to stick to my diet today, haven't exercised today or at all for a couple of weeks besides some random weekend hikes. Hoping to get back to exercising soon

My goals this round is (1) to see at least 4 days under 140 (2) drop my 10 day average another pound and (3) not to have a weight higher than 142.00. I would also like to see 138.xxx on the scale, but with 2 weekends in this round and starting so high from last round we will see what happens.

(started rnd 58 only include last 5 rounds of stats)
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 Avg 142.68
Round 91: 140.9 - 143.6 Avg 143.62
Round 92: 143.6 - 141.5 Avg 142.01
Round 93: 141.5 - 142.3 Avg 143.21
Round 94: 142.3 - 143.4 Avg 140.93

11/09 - 140.7 back down today. My husband wants to go and try this new Mexican food place that just opened so I am sure I will be back up. I don't know what is up with him and eating out the last couple of days, but it is his birthday so all I can do is fight through my sodium gains.

11/10 - 144.3 dang this is from a Bloody Mary and my food yesterday. I am pretty sure I was at maintenance calories, but the sodium was through the roof. I am going to try and drink a lot of water today.

11/11 - 143.4 well I am back down to my Fridays weight. I am so glad my husbands bday weekend is over and I can get back to normal. I was under calories yesterday, but didn't get my water in at all. Although I did have to go and get my ring from the jeweler yesterday and was shocked it fit even with my sodium intake. I took in it 2 weeks ago to get it re-sized. I had to have it taken in 2 sizes because I was worried I was going to lose it, since it was so loose. I am now a size 6 on my ring finger, lol!

11/12 - 141.3 And we are going back down after a decent amount of water yesterday. On track for today and dinner should be low calorie tonight. Maybe I will see 139.xx again tomorrow.

** ROUND 95 **
Round # 24 for me

Goal the next ten days:
1.) Log dairy (2/10)
2.) Reach 6500 step goal 4 times a week M-F (2-6)
3.) Go to be before midnight (0/10)

Day/Weight/Comment

11/09 394.2 - 2.0 lbs. – I quit WW today. I am going to stick with MFP and seeing my therapist every 2 weeks for now. My goal is to lose each round for until the end of year. I don’t want to put any pressure on myself right now with goals. My main goal is consistency. I reset my MFP ticker today also. I purchased an audible book on intermittent fasting by Jason Fung and someone else. Trying to get my head back in the game. I lost 0.8 pounds last round and another 2 pounds this morning! So I will continue to eat low carbs for sure.

11/10 396.8 +2.6 lbs.
11/11 397.8 +1.0 lbs.

11/12 400.8 +3.0 lbs. – Well I am getting back on track today. Weekend not good. Yesterday I had Chinese food late and it was very salty and greasy. I threw the rest out which is a win for me. I got by 6500 steps in Sunday and Monday and logged food on MFP. I have to get back used to using MFP. I did not have my Fitbit syncing here since I was using the WW to log my food. Finally got that working right! Today has been good so far. This too shall pass. I was looking at the end of this round and I see it ends on a Monday which means I have to have a plan for this weekend and Saturday we are having a girl’s night out happy hour party out from 4:00 to 9:00 for one of our friends who just retired. I am thinking now I am going to have a fish entree for starters. But I must have a plan in place before I go.

Total change this round: +6.6 lbs.

My journey … ("I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!")

In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.

In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.

In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs

My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"

I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.

I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.

Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.

Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.

On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.

My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.

Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.

Hi. My name is Trina.

I'm till trying to get down to 128, before officially starting to maintain, but mostly want to stay under 130. Also trying to keep stress levels in check and not succumb to comfort snacking. Chemo starts November 20 and it is starting to wig me out (pun intended...sort of!).

Day/Weight/Comment
11/09 130.5 I did a ton of exercise yesterday, thinking weight is partially DOMS. However, doing a lot of comfort snacking today...so tomorrow that will be to blame for the still high number!
11/10 131.5 Snacking yesterday. I was stressed, hungry, cranky. Also went out for a burger/fries and a beer last night. I got carded and refused a beer (apparently that is the law here, although my husband and I and my friends of 50+ years have never had this problem before!) Just drank half of both of HIS beers. (Which means all the calories were his, right?)

11/11 131.5 Bummer. Time to get this lower again!
11/12 132.5 Sigh. Too much snacking yesterday.

Ready for my round 32
OSW 88KG
RSW 61.65 kg (-26.35kg) or {- 58 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
11/09 61.30 kg. A loss but not enough to make up for the end of last round. Going to push to get back under 60kg before I go on a work trip on Thursday.
11/10 60.45kg and a loss is always good but I think I'm dehydrated as I don't drink my usual 4l of water yesterday. Having a busy weekend with very little sleep and no exercise. Working on getting back below 60kg
11/11 60.15kg. Trainer was on a mission today!
11/12 60.6kg no issues and it will be coming down.
11/13 60.9kg which isn't in the right direction but as Sunday is my official weigh day I have time to get it off. Work trip cancelled so I don't have to worry about food choices on those days. Trainer was kicking butt again this morning!

Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:

11/09 157.4 (+ 2.8) Too many calories to count lol I had a great time last night but dinner consisted of chips and such at a party.
11/10 155.6 (-1.8), 1099 cal, run 4.5km, good day, still need some time to drop off all those extra calories from Friday night.
11/11 155.8, (+0.2) 1388 cal, 8.5km run. That was a big run yesterday ... well for me a big one as I'd never done anything above 5km, also it was trail running in a forest which I found so much harder than hitting the pavement in town. I was starving afterwards and didn't watch enough what I was eating, It was more "get home and empty the fridge" scenario oups!!. I'll know better for next time and prepare some healthy food. Still a 900 cal deficit, but also didn't drink enough water.
11/12 DNW

11/13 DNW, spent the yesterday with my dad who had a small operation and slept over at his place so didn't weight. Hopefully not too much damage with the hospital snacking. Normally going for a run tonight if I'm not too tired.

New kitchen still being fitted - worktops due end of next week!! Last few rounds without a kitchen went well so hoping to continue as I left off. No kitchen continues to make me very planned and very focused just buying what we need when we need it.... Lesson to be learned here I think!
Out for dinner with hubby and the kids on Saturday - saves cooking at home as kitchen not yet finished - so wont be an over the top meal.

Round goal - if I lose 1lb or so I'll be very happy as the round finishes on a Monday

Start Weight 132.8lb

11/09 - 132.1lb (-0.7lb) Lovely start to the round. Off to the gym this morning while the girls are at cheer training then out for a family dinner tonight once Hubby home from working away again. Will be treating myself to a glass or two of wine and probably dessert as they do cheese and biscuits - my favourite!

11/10 - DNW - hubby home and he got up and made me tea in bed this morning so I didn't weigh as had had two cups of tea before I even got up

Bliss!!

11/11 - 132.5lb (+0.4lb) Very happy with this small weekend gain given we ate out Saturday and had a family movie night last night with a glass of wine and some popcorn! Sets me up nicely for the week ahead (although at the theatre on Wednesday night and out with a friend for lunch on Friday so need to stay focused)

11/12 - 132.3lb (-0.2lb) All good and on a bit of a roll at the moment. At work all day so breakfast, lunch and snack all prepped and with me and a quick healthy dinner all planned ready for tonight when I get in from the gym. Sunny at the minute (although cold) so hope to get out at lunchtime for a quick 10 minute walk too.
Happy Tuesday everyone

11/13 - 132.1lb (-0.2lb) Slow and steady which is all good. All should be fine today although may indulge at the theatre tonight (date night with Hubby) in an interval glass of wine and some popcorn

Average for R94- 150.6

11/9- 151
11/10- 149.8
11/11- 151.6
11/12- 151.6
11/13- 151.8 I’m cool with this, ate a very late dinner (for me) because I doubled my evening workout. I’m also adjusting my macros to add in more carbs. I’m figuring out how to best fuel my body for both exercise and recovery.

Happy Wednesday!

Pleased to meet you! Pleased to discover this accountability challenge.

A little about me, I lost weight last year and felt clean and healthy. I did this to accomplish a lifetime goal to climb Kili, which was accomplished in 2018. Very shortly will be the Inca Trail. A new lifetime goal is to climb to the base of Everest in 2020. I cycle, hike, do yoga and occasionally go to the gym. I follow a vegetarian diet and protein is a challenge. A loss of focus and accountability has resulted in weight gain. Anything you can share about nutrition, weight loss without muscle loss, macros would be appreciated.

11/13 - DNW - At BF's. Got some boxes from work for him to use for packing (did I mention I'm mad at him because he's moving to Texas before me and I was the one that wanted to move. Since last year, even!) that I had to drop off. No scale ): Water was not even close to good yesterday. Trying harder today for sure.

11/12 - Weekend at BF's. Didn't eat much, wasn't really hungry. Stomach was acting all kinds of funny. Ah well, it seemed to be better by last night. Must say, it was a rough weekend mentally for me. Thinking that may be a reason for it. Glad I didn't really gain too much. I know I'm dehydrated so wondering if the uptick from last week is from that. Bloated as all get out from pasta last night (he's still not on board with my paleo/primal lifestyle) and the kids were there (picky eaters they are). I have Friday off but I'm not sure if I'll go over there Thursday night or Friday afternoon since he has to work and kids are at school anyway.

SW 134.2
UGW 131
Goal : 1 lb this round

11/09 134.2 : I didn't sleep the previous night so ate cookies. Then in the evening I was starving and the only thing there was cheese and crackers, so those have led to a little bump. But!! Today is Saturday and I'm going to make sure my usual weekend sabotage doesn't happen.

11/10 133.6 I was one calorie over for yesterday and didn't eat any sweet. Also, I didn't feel like eating cheese yesterday and was wondering what to put on my toast for a very light dinner. Sprinkled some nutritional yeast on top and was supremely pleased with myself!

11/11 133.6 not bad since I was home and had easy access to snacks! Armistice day today.

11/12 134 I should expect this because I was at maintenance calories by the time I finished for the evening with pretzels and ranch dressing. Hello, salt, thanks for sticking around 😆 good news is that the elliptical seemed very comfortable! And I was at a faster pace than usual. I think today I am going to have some low-salt foods, and water.

11/13 134 I was sad and anxious last evening so I ate more than I should have. I feel awful this morning 😔 but have to think positive. Everything will be fine.

LisaW57 · November 2019

Intro:

Let me introduce myself. I struggled with my weight as a teen, topping out at nearly 200. I dropped it after high school and got to a healthy weight. Every major life changed has brought weight back on - having kids, pre-menopause, menopause, family tragedy, post menopause. I've knocked it back down each time, and have been surprised that each time required a different strategy, and resulted in a different type of lifestyle change to maintain. Each time as been much harder and slower. At this point, it's moving off at a snail's pace.

Motivation. I have a hyatial hernia. It does not bother me as long as I keep the weight at 150 or below. Every female on my mother's side has had arthritic knees, and I'm starting to feel twinges. They have also sustained falls and broken bones. My husband had a major health scare a coupe of years ago. The idea of being put out of commission by a preventable injury or illness scares the bejimminies out of me.

Goals. The goals at this stage are to drop weight to a healthy range, realign my eating style to a lifestyle that will keep me healthy into my golden years, and strengthen the muscles that support my knees, ankles, and shoulders, along with my core, to prevent injury.

Dropping weight post menopausal has been so difficult, I need this to be the last time. 10-15 pounds used to be easy to drop, so that was always my warning bell to focus. Not so much now. Looks like a 3-5 pound fluctuation will be it.

A healthy weight for me is 135-140. I've always looked anorexic at 120. We'll see how things are at 135, and go from there.

Strategy: Up the hydrating foods. Fruit with breakfast. Salad/veggies as bulk of lunch. Healthy dinner. Limit/eliminate processed carbs and sugars. Zero calorie intake after 8pm. Strength exercises 3 days on/1 day rest. Regular movement through day to compensate for desk job.

Female. Age 62 / 5'2"
OW: 158.5 (12/30/18)
UG: 135.0 (for now, healthy weight for me)

R95 SW: 146.3
R95 GW: 146.0 (you'll see why in a sec)

11/09 (S) 146.3 I was firmly in the 147's the week prior (147.1 on the 8th) This is a whoosh. Hoping it is the result of a modification to my WOE, where I've added fruit to breakfast and a handful of greens to lunch.

11/10 (S) 147.0 The expected spike after a whoosh. Had a higher than normal fat breakfast Saturday morning, skipped lunch, and had frozen appetizers (high sodium) for dinner watching the Xfinity Race (we're big NASCAR fans here). Skipped fruit altogether. Did have a salad with the appetizer dinner).

11/11(M) 147.0 Another big Sunday breakfast with high fat and no fruit. Skipped lunch. Again. Tacos during the Monster Cup Race. Higher fat than one expects. Sodium was high as well, so drink extra water to accommodate - and that looks to be a successful strategy. Blueberries for an evening snack.

So. Next weekend are the Championship races for all 3 series. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We make a huge big deal out of this. It's my family's Super Bowl. I need to plan ahead so I'm not stuck in kitchen and we have plenty to eat. I also need to make sure I'm moving early and afterwards - that's a lot of TV time.

11/12 (T) 146.9 Nice. Ripped the water intake, and stayed on plan. Tried a new recipe for gazpacho for lunch! Have enough of the ingredients for a second batch for lunch today! Had salmon cakes for dinner. Family tradition calls for fried white potatoes as a side 😳 I splurged with a half size portion and added a spinach salad. Win for everyone. 😊

Having the family in Sunday for the big race 🏁 Decided on a menu of chili w/ground turkey & a big bowl of salad. Oven baked chicken strips for the kiddos. Fruit & salad tray and hummus with low carb flat bread for snacks should keep me and daughter in-law out of the inevitable chips & dip. I think I've got this!

11/13 (W) 146.4 These are morning weigh ins. Yesterday was an on track day for eating and water intake. Worked late, missed dinner so had an after 8pm snack. I could have easily ditched my strength exercises, but dragged myself out of chair once I was fueled up. Good day!

11/14.
