R101 - First Round for Me.
Goals in 2020: lower body fat %, gain strength, improve running times, focus on macros esp protein goals,hit goal weight.
56 year old, female, 5' 7"ft
Heaviest W: 160
Current W:. 148.9
Challenge GW: Lose 2 lbs as I get back into the swing of things after a long vacay.
Day/Weight/Comment:
1/08: 148.9 - first weigh in since 12/21. Better than I expected after eating and drinking whatever I wanted for 2 weeks. It was worth it but need to batten down the hatches for 2020. Did a circuit training class and went for a run and it felt good. I will be sore
1/09: 148.8 - Had my Body Fat % measured at the gym via a DXA scan. I now have some data to work with to get stronger and lose the fat. And I need to eat more protein.
1/10: 148.8 ( same ) Never understand how my scale measures the same weight. Don't know if I trust it tbh. Had a good run. But still enjoying the wine at night. That has to stop - empty calories
1/11: 149.8 (+1 lb ) Weighed after my protein drink and coffee so who knows. Heading to the gym for some weights and cardio.
1/12:149.6 (-.2) Pre-run. Ran 6 miles today - felt ok. Ate a big breakfast so need to be watchful the rest of the day and get some veggies in me and lots of water. Hoping for a great week ahead of motivation

If they are the ones I think they are, they are to die for yeast dinner rolls and pepperoni slices are rolled into the dough before baking. A regional favorite in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and parts of Ohio.
@ghy139 - you are making them?! Will you adopt me? Well, on second thought ... πππ4 -
Back for Round 101
Female / Age 62 / 5'2"
OW: 158.5 (12/30/18)
UG: 135.0 (for now, healthy weight for me)
Thanks @GrandmaJackie for getting us started! 16 pages! WOW! You guys are going gang busters. I will catch up!
've still been in and out. Things have been nuts on both the work and home fronts. I've been mindful of my eating, but have not really been on program. Remainder of this round is not looking any better with a work trip this week, so mindfulness and maintenance will be the goal.
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.
Round StatsR95: SW 146.3 GW 146.0 EW 145.3 Results -1.0 loss
R96: SW 145.3 GW 144.0 EW 145.0 Results - 0.3 loss
R97: SW 145.0 GW 144.0 EW 143.8 Results - 1.2 loss
R98: SW 143.8 GW 142.8 EW 145.3 Results - 1.5 gain
R99: SW 145.3 GW 144.3 EW 144.6 Results - 0.7 loss
R100: SW 144.6 GW 143.6 EW 144.5 Results - 0.1 loss
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.
R99 Challenges: My challenges this round will be finding and getting back to a routine. Life has been quite unfair as we moved into the holidays. My son lost his mother in-law in childbirth on Christmas Eve. She was just 48, and left behind three granddaughters who are devastated and the baby was transferred to NICU 3 hours away. My daughter in-law has been with the baby (who is stable now), and we have been trying to help my son with the girls. Then my mother in-law was admitted on Thursday with complications from pneumonia and passed away on Sunday. That things have been stressful and chaotic, is an understatement.
I am proud of myself for being mindful of my emotional and physical self. It will take a concerted effort to stay the course as our family navigates the changes. I spent some quiet time this morning doing my meal planning. I've also looked at my Round Stats, and see that I stayed stable over the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays - that's huge!

I have onsite work meetings Tuesday through Thursday, so my routine (and stress) will be off-norm. I am blown away at 16 pages of this Challenge to catch up on, but catch up I will.
01/12 (S) 145.0 (Trend Weight 144.8) S'ok. That's a late dinner and late weigh-in after water & coffee. Focused on getting ahead on stuff around house before travel this week.

01/09-173.2 first uptick is always kind of a bummer
01/10-173.4 well I was having a major case of the snakies yesterday so I'm not suprised didn't go too crazy with calories but maybe ate a bit more than my BMR, Today will be better.
01/11-175.6pizza......and wine π
01/12-175.8 this is not accurate! I forgot to weigh in today until after I ate so I think im probably in an ok place! I randomly tried intermittent fasting today since I had kind of a crazy morning and i think i like it! This is coming from a big big breakfast supporter and a person who loves cream in my coffee. Might just give it a go tomorrow too!

Thanks, @quiltingjaine you're right. But then I would have had to also skip the lunch orders. And it may have been cake I didn't mind eating too much π5 -

10 Day Challenge 101
2020 Starting Weight: 209.5
Current Weight: 207.8
Current Goal: 198
UGW: 148
10-day Goal: 205 (hoping thereβs still some water weight to shed)
Focus for next 10 days is tracking, tracking, tracking. Plus daily exercise and daily journaling (which is when/where I do my planning for the next day).
Date/Weight/Comment
1/8: 208.4 β surprised as Iβve been tracking well, in decent calorie deficit for a week with no big sodium intake or anything. But the point of a 10 day challenge is to track and find patterns to adjust, right? So Iβll keep tracking to find the pattern...
1/9: 207.6 β there it is! Kept to my plan, and now seeing what I expect.
1/10: 208.0 β and there it goes (again)! In deficit (a lot), good workout, no major sodium, but ate dinner very late and woke feeling bloated. New scale, too, maybe this is just reflective of its precision. Will keep to plan and cross fingers a big drop will come before the end!
1/11: 207.2 βok, whew! Up 0.4/0.6, down 0.8, I can live with that on a daily basis. Iβm going to keep keeping on, no adjustments yet. Keep tracking my pattern
1/12: 207.0βok, good direction. Still feels slow but am in this for the long haul.

Well Iβm off for a 3 day work trip. No weigh-ins. Will take maintenance for the 3 days, but will track carefully and still try to eat under my limit. Hoping to see 207 or less on Jan 16!

Hi. My name is Trina.
Goal for this 10 days is to get a little closer to maintenance, where maintenance is <130. No chemo to interfere this 10 days, and only one more day of steroids, and just my sister and then my mom visiting....so not quite totally on my own, but should be able to be a bit more on track!
I've missed you all and I look forward to catching up!

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. Post everyday 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.
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 of the posts.

01/12 - 152.x - I honestly don't remember my weight... It was an odd number in the low 152 range (152.1 or 152.2 I think, but not 100% sure). I had to step on the scale twice to be sure. Oh well. My fault for not posting soon enough as I got busy helping babysit. Tomorrow I will weigh in. Everything is set and scheduled for my trip to Texas Thursday. Just have to get the trailer and get it loaded on Wednesday after work but I have someone coming to help with that. Then have someone helping me drop off my car after trailer is loaded so it can get fixed while I'm gone. So much money all in one weekend I want to cry. But it'll help in the long run. Just have to focus on setting aside enough for my big move and throw the rest at debt until its gone. Started packing non-essential stuff, mainly kitchen-focused (things that are nice to have but I can do without. Especially since its just me, not the entire family so no extravagance needed with cooking). Figured if I can get a better assessment of what I have and will need when I move, I may be able to purge some more stuff and get a smaller truck which is much cheaper.

Previous Day's Comments01/08 - And this is what not eating (or drinking) due to nerves looks like. False low! I had a few cashews to break my fast before lunch (in meeting and started getting nauseous) and ended up not having lunch at all because I got distracted/busy and found out I had a job interview coming up later in the evening. I also found out the company wanting to interview me (as the job posting was through a recruiter and company was not revealed until interview) so I had to try to focus on work knowing I had limited time to research the company once I was home. I got asked if I could fly down to Austin for an in-person interview immediately, though! So after that I did my Yoga with Adriene HOME practice (I've heard about the ab day 6 and figured it best to wait to eat until after) and finally was hungry enough to eat. Today should be better and I expect a jump up tomorrow/remainder of the round since I've managed to only eat dinner these last two days (which is great if I were fasting, but I had cashews as a snack so not in a fully fasted state and I did not eat my allotted calories during dinner to make up for it). Side note: I'M EXHAUSTED. For some reason I've been struggling to sleep and when I finally do manage to fall into deep sleep, its right around when my alarm goes off. Its now day 4 of this... Instant migraine this morning, shouldn't have complained about the headache yesterday morning. Its my Friday so I can sleep a little more tomorrow morning and hopefully feel refreshed and ready to go! Just needed to rant a little on that, I'm good. Probably caffeine withdrawals since I didn't have a drop of the stuff yesterday. Got me some ibuprofen and a small cup of black coffee and it seems to be helping quite a bit.
01/09 - Much better!! I ate appropriately calorie-wise yesterday (had more than one meal finally) and didn't hit my water goal, but doubled what I was drinking before so I'll take it! This is a much more accurate number than the last couple days. I'm happy it is still lower, but 151.x made me a little uneasy. Even 152.x didn't make me feel like I should've while knowing why I was so low (not treating my body well, even if not intentional). Off work tomorrow but taking car in to get serviced so not quite sure what will be on the menu (depends on how long service takes, I suppose - appointment is at 10 and its 30 minutes from home so it'll be time for me to break my fast pretty soon after). I need to save money for my impromptu trip to Texas over MLK day though. I did not budget for any of that so I'll likely just take a snack in case its a long appt and eat at home after to save..
01/10 - Guess I'm going to bounce here. It is a much more comfortable 152.x than before (when I was practically starving myself. Its an ice storm outside, really nasty today. Got the oil changed and suspension inspected then booked it home before it got worse. Turns out my car has to be fixed and I'm going to Texas a little early. Oh boy. There's a job fair for RecruitMilitary on Friday so I'm driving down Thursday instead of Saturday. I might as well go to the job fair while I'm already driving down there for the interview, right? I'm staying with BF so its not like it'll cost me any extra for a hotel or anything. While I'm gone, my car is in desperate need (like not really safe to drive kinda need) of struts and front brakes. So it will be dropped off and more money on the credit card since I still don't know what I'm going to be paid for the rest of this month and my bills come out of my checking on autopay. No overdraft for me! It'll get worked out soon, though, as I'm budgeting like crazy where I can and hopefully have it paid off come the end of February. Then its back to the loan and the other 2 credit cards that don't look so pretty... I'm a mess but I'm doing Dave Ramsey's baby steps to get back on track like I was about a year and a half ago before I retired. At least this card earns airline miles for my pending 2021 vacation and it'll be THAT much less I need to save for vacation once debt is paid off.
01/11 - Okay with this, a little water retention from lack of water. Ice storm yesterday and was out in it so didn't stop to get more water as I tried to beat the worst of it home. Still nasty out but staying home today. Ice has turned to snow but looks like it should be done by noon. Going to be almost 40 tomorrow so hopefully it'll melt all the icky away.

Back to life! Back to reality!
Last yearMy goal was to get down below 160, to allow me to enjoy the indulgences of holidays and celebrations.I need this more than ever now that I am in maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
This year, I exceeded that and have been below 150 for most of the last 2 months.
Last year, I put on 10 lbs over the last 2 months of the year.
This year, I have consistently lost weight since the end of July. I have put on about 4lbs over the Christmas break, but am still below my original 2019 goal.
That's a WIN in my book!

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.

69 years old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
We used to walk 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year. Then I had back surgery. Now I'm waiting to get my hip fixed. Hip Doc said surgery in April. Ugh! I can't do any walking or biking...both kill me. I see my personal trainer three times a week. She is taking it very slow and easy with me.
