01/21 396.4 (-1.6) – I am back It has been a struggle. Trying to get back on track. I see my therapist tonight. I am up 2 pounds from when I saw her on the 7th. I am moving forward. Today is a new day. :flowerforyou:

01/22 395.4 (-1.0)
01/23 394.4 (-1.0) – I really have not been keeping my dairy all the way but I have been eating cleanly for the most part. I have been doing plenty of walking but not getting in my step goal. I am gradually getting back in the swing of it. Not sure if I told you all starting in February, I will be seeing my therapist weekly. It is covered by my insurance except for the co-pay so I might as well take advantage of it. I have plenty in my FSA so I should be able to do it. This should keep me more accountable for sure. I told her I am determined to meet my goals this year. We did the math and in order to reach my goal on average I would need to lose at least 2.5 to 3 pounds per 10 days in the challenges. In the beginning I will lose more. This is completely doable and a realistic goal. I just must stay focused. I know with my Jehovah, friends, MFP support team, my therapist, and my determination I am going to move forward this year no matter what. BTW has anyone tasted the new Kale crunch salad at Chick-fil-a? It is so good!! I am addicted for sure!! That is a healthy addiction. Try it if you have not. Hope all is well with everyone, it has been snowy in Shy town!

@matratazola - So glad to hear your daughter's x-rays didn't show anything too serious. Hope she recovers quickly and that you get some sunny days to lift your spirits

@deepwoodslady - Thank you! I'm usually more comfortable hiding behind a nature photo, but this group has inspired me to embrace my vulnerability.

@wellnfree - My dilemma exactly! I love to bake, but now that my kids have grown and flown, a full batch of anything is just too much, and the leftovers are far too tempting to keep around

Day/Weight/Comment

18 jan: 84.9 kg; Probably not very realistic.... slept in, so late weigh-in. Came home very, very tired after work yesterday, so no workout done. Had more water intake during the day, had some extra steps, but not happy with the total amount and above all, I ate above my calorie goal. But, today is a new day
19 jan: 84.9 kg; maybe it is a bit realistic... worked around the house yesterday, cleaned, run some errons and relaxed. Love the weekends.
20 jan: 85.1 kg; back to normal weig-in time.
21 jan: 85.6 kg; no words....
22 jan: 85.9 kg: 😱 teambuilding, 5 course Italian meal cooking togheter with pesto, ravioli, lots of cheese, tiramisu, cookies and so on. Was fun, but way tooooo much kcal!
23 jan: 85.5 kg; normal day, normal eating, back on track
24 jan: 86.0 kg; busy day at work, didn't drink enough, ate too much chocolate and other sweet stuff out of boringness en being tired in the evening.....

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 102 (round 34 for me ) I'm in for another round – really need to move on (again) !

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !

This round goal to just lose - aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking & refrain from attacking the cookie jar and left over Christmas chocolates – plan is to put them in DH lunch box each day 'til they're gone!!

Day/Weight/Comment

01/18 136 – 9.7 miles walked, pre planning & logging worked yesterday, I'll use it again today. Feels good to be back in control, all macros & calories well in green.
01/19 136 – 11.86 miles walked yesterday in the glorious winter sunshine. Today will be a challenge, last “Christmas” celebration of the season, all my large family get together, siblings, respective children and grandchildren, 30+ of us, we hire a church hall and all bring bits of food, you may know it as a Jacobs table or an American supper? I'm getting out for a good walk this morning beforehand and then really going to try to make healthy choices.
01/20 136.6 – 8.06 miles walked. Did indulge a little, but tried to make mostly healthy choices at our last family “Christmas” get together. Calories, carbs & sodium all over, BUT, I fought with my inner self to not use it as an “excuse” to run into a major binge (this is what would normally happen) – and it was a fight!! But the healthier me won and I ate only an apple after we got home at 6.00pm last night. So this morning I've pre-logged my food for the day and have some good walking planned too. Have a good Monday everyone!
01/21 135.8 - 10.69 miles walked yesterday, carbs 7g over, but calories and all other macros well in green. Still feeling more in control, but knee is niggling from an old injury way back in adolescence, wouldn't let me do all my stretching and toning exercises this morning, it didn't like dancing the samba as our latin & ballroom class last night, hopefully I'll still be OK for my walking today.
01/22 135.4 – 11.95 miles walked yesterday, knee is fine walking as long as I made sure I keep it in line rather than twist it – I will “nurse” it through yoga this morning. All calories & macros well in green, feeling strong.
01/23 135 – 9.98 miles walked yesterday and an hours yoga – knee held up and getting better – yeah. All macros and calories in green.
01/24 135.6 – 2.09 miles only walked, a couple of hours up & down the different levels at soft play with toddler DGS.

42yrs old 5’4”
Goal 121- half of my former self
Ultimate Goal- Maintain under 130

Goal every round is to get that average down by any number but seeing 145 would definitely make me do a happy dance (how many calories does that burn?)

R101 Average- 148.1

01/18- 148.2
01/19- 146.6
01/20- 144.4- this is total dehydration!!
01/21- 148.0
01/22- 148.0
01/23- 148.0
01/24- 146.4- WHOOSH! Motivation to push hard and keep hammering this number down. Every day I wake up feeling super capable but the struggle to keep my calories in check, gets real in the afternoon.

Heaviest: 265 on MFP (300 in RL)
Round 100 - SW: 228.8; EW: 223.7 (loss 5.1)

1/18: 220.9 Oh, happy day! This challenge is really helping me keep my focus on healthy choices all day. Not always successful, but way more tuned in than before the challenge.
1/19: DNW Just taking a rest day away from the scale. Be back tomorrow!
1/20: 222.7
1/21: 222.4
1/22: 221.5 Almost back to where I was when starting this round. Why do I sabotage myself when I see real progress and the goal within sight? Focusing on making that 10-day goal number. Eyes on the prize!
1/23: 221.4 Inching along. Can I make my goal?? Oh, please!!

Goals
1 - Track my calories daily
2 - Run (or gym) 2x week - yoga 1x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4 - 10.000 steps

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

01/18 - DNW
01/19 - DNW
01/20 - 152.6 (+1.8) Post weekend gain, which I'm really quite OK with seeing that I was invited out to dinners on both Friday and Saturday evening... added to which I didn't do any sports at all as I have a head cold. So yes, I had a good time and I'll just have to deal with it over the next few days
01/21 - 151.8 (-0.8) 1320 cal, 8587 steps, over cal by 120 as I had a couple of chocolates mid afternoon. My daughter's returned from her school skiing trip, she had a nasty fall on the last day there. We went to the doctor this ayem as she's been complaining of pains in her neck and upper back so she has to wear a neck brace for a week or more depending on the X-Ray tomorrow. Luckily they think it's only bruising but as she broke a couple of vertebrata a year ago when she was thrown off a horse they're not taking any chances, we'll see tomorrow pm.
01/22 - 152.6 (+0.8) 1294 cal, 6424 steps. A good example of when you eat about the right number of calories but the wrong type of food. I had planned pizza in the evening and was going to have a salad at lunch time to compensate but I got stuck due to meetings and ended up having sandwiches instead so the combo of sandwiches and pizza just didn't work even with just 1294 calories total. I'm hoping today will be better but my schedule is a mess so I'm not sure how it'll go.Thanks everyone for all the well wishes for my daughter, I've taken the afternoon off to take her to hospital for the Xray and check with the spine doctor, crossing fingers it's just bruising, she was in much less pain this morning after having worn the neck brace for a day!
01/23 - 152.6 (-0.0) 1193 cal, 7636 step, all ok except water and not quite there for the steps, so I will try and achieve my goals on those two issues. My daughter's X-ray are good at first glance, initial diagnosis is mild whiplash and a specialist will check and get back to us Monday. They're pleased that there were no further injuries to the vertebrata she broke last year. On another note, the dark miserable cold weather is eating it's way through my motivation reserves, I can't wait for longer warmer days and it's not even February yet

01/24 - 151.0 (-1.6) 1136 cal, 9094 steps, good day yesterday and a nice drop. I'm doubtful it'll stay that way over the weekend but I'll try my best. Today is already off track as I woke up at 4 am worrying about something and never fell back to sleep so now I'm craving sweets and I've already had a few, at least I don't have a dinner tonight for once so I'll have a plate of vegetables

10 day goal: Lose 3lbs and keep under sodium macro.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/18: 202.0 Weight is off to a good start this round, but my sodium intake was still too high yesterday.
01/19: 201.2 Yes! And I kept under my sodium macro, too!
01/20 200.0
01/21: 200.8 I felt sick all day yesterday because of pms, so I gave into my carb cravings. Honestly, I expected my weight to be much worse. Not that I’m unhappy!
01/22: 201.8 I was very good all day...until my sister and her boyfriend made a surprise visit with CiCi’s pizza and brownies (my favorite poison!). It was worth the price!
01/23: 199.5 Hello there, one hundreds! I have missed you!! Sugar intake was a little high yesterday, but my sodium intake was right on point.
01/24: 199.6 As long as I stay in the one hundreds, I am happy! I have been craving chocolate because of my oncoming period, so my sugar intake is still high.

Round 102, 19th Round for Me
Starting Weight: 283.2 lbs
Goal Weight: 281.2 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment

01/18: 282.9 lbs (-0.3) ... Down a bit more today. Hopefully I’m done with my eating struggles and can stay on the right path going forward.

01/19: 281.3 lbs (-1.6) … Nice little whoosh there. Let’s see if I can hold onto it! This is my first new low weight since late November.

01/20: 281.3 lbs (no change)

01/21: 282.6 lbs (+1.3) … Up a little. Still on track with my eating plan so it’s just a fluctuation rather than anything to worry about.

01/22: 281.6 lbs (-1.0) … And away most of that fluctuation goes. Much better than I expected, since dinner was a bit carb-heavy (rice) and later than usual.

01/23: 281.3 lbs (-0.3) … I keep seeing this number this round!

01/24: 282.1 lbs (+0.8) … Small uptick. We ate dinner a bit late last night. I was within budget though, so it’s nothing to worry about. To be honest, I’m just glad I’m bouncing around 281-282 rather than higher!

Need to stay accountable and get/give motivation.

I've been doing slightly better with food but am finding it hard to exercise. Partly due to lack of time and partly due to the freezing weather. I just feel like hibernating.

Round 102 (my 34th)

OSW 382.0
RSW 266.0

01/18 264.2 There’s the water bounce dropping, plus a little more. Tom still hasn’t arrived, but at least I’m not holding onto water like the last few times it decided to be late. My goal is to see some new lows this round.

01/19 262.6 When I said yesterday that I wanted to see some new lows this round I wasn’t thinking that I would see them so soon! Though this could in part be to sleeping in an hour later than usual, I’ll be happy if I don’t see a little bounce tomorrow when I weigh at my new usual time. I figured out my eating schedule so that I’m not overly hungry by dinner time and trying not to eat everything in sight. My nsv yesterday was buying some new mean’s sweatpants in large and top in xtra large. The shirt looks a little stuffed sausage on me, but it will soon fit better, and I don’t mind wearing it in the house.

01/20 262.4 I weighed at my usual time this morning and I’m just happy there wasn’t a bounce up from the different weigh in times.

01/21 260.8 This whoosh is brought to me by another later weigh in. I was very tired when I got up this morning, so I went back down for a short bit. I am so glad I did because I feel 100 times better and have energy which has been missing lately. Plus it brought me this nice whoosh down.

01/22 261.0 The small bounce is okay, I was a little high on sodium yesterday. I’ve already hit my goal for the month and anything more is happy extra toward my goal for the year.

01/23 260.4 And back down plus some. I’m only a little bit from the first big goal I wanted to hit this year and I’m going to work really hard to not be derailed by the weekend.

01/24 260.4 I’m good with this, especially since I have some inflammation and soreness. My dog pulled me into a small hole last night, and I’m little sore from that and the extra activity I did. On top of that I had a seizure last night, the first in long awhile, and it has me all sorts of off this morning. Today will be a self-care day, I just have to work to not have it turn into an excuse to eat everything in sight.
