Thanks @GrandmaJackie

Looking forward:
I'm just too danged cussed to let this thing knock me back, and ruin all the effort I have put in to get here. I am stepping up my routine, and taking control. Sheltering in place means I can fully concentrate on getting in my exercise, and preparing healthy food.

April: focus on maintaining and increasing my progress
2020: Goal is to stabilise weight around 145
Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
Cut down on eating between meals

Never give up! Never give in!
Back Story:

2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ So far, so good.
That's a WIN in my book!

2020
Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.

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!

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 !

Goal – end lower than started......again! - aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges! Keep calm, washing hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

04/06 135.6 - 7.21 miles walked yesterday , otherwise a disaster! Started with good intentions but then fell off seriously

. So today is a new day and a new week, clean slate, pull myself up and get on with it. Watched the Queen last night & took a little inspiration and resolve from it. 1.4 pounds increase from the end of the last round.

Not been around for a while (since last year in fact!)
Thank you @GrandmaJackie for keeping this going - this group is fab and lovely to see so many familiar people on here and a whole new intake too!

Live in the UK - aged 48 (for a bit longer)

Been so busy with house renovations, then December, a trip to Disney and Christmas and a lot of socialising involving way too much food and drink and just not got my head back in it since then. Can feel my clothes getting tighter and the arrival of the nice weather made me realise my shorts from last summer don't fit great either! Want to get back to last summers goal weight.....

And now of course we're stuck at home

But I am working from home as normal (in fact more hours than ever - CFO for an IT Support company supporting a lot of large London schools and pharma companies), hubby is working away at the minute (a Key worker working for GE dealing with power station generators so have to keep the power on!) so here with my daughters (aged 12 and 17) on my own trying to also find time to help them with their school and college work and also look after and help my parents who are in self isolation due to underlying health conditions (COPD and a history of strokes and pleurisy) so time for me is hard to find at the minute. Also worry about my daughter-in-law who is a nurse at Guys and St Thomas' in London and ventilator trained so in the thick of it....

So I decided enough is enough and that I need to find a bit of time for me, get re-focused and this group is a fab way to ensure I do!! No evening commitments at the minute

so have time to focus on healthy evening meals.

Weighed yesterday and am back on it. Counting this as round 1 for me and not carrying from my old history.

Goal for the round is to stay focused, get back to daily weighing, do my PT workouts at least 3 times this week as well as a walk outside when I can.

Round goal - to lose around 5lb so down to about 150 (sounds a lot but first round back on it so should see quite a bit of bloat and water going!) .....

04/06 - 155.0lb Oh well not great but I'm back and on it again.
04/07 - 153.8lb (-1.2lb) One day of focus and progress already

Did the daily workout my PT is posting up each day on the Facebook group and ache this morning (haven't been able to go the gym for three weeks now!) Then also did a 4 mile round trip walk to my parents to drop off a few bits for them. So a good start. On to tomorrow....

Goal... Wish I knew! I'd like to lose 1 more kg permanently but that seems very difficult right now

Ultimate Goal- Maintain under 130

Goal this round is to get back under 150.

4/07- 153.8- so I pretty much ate an ENTIRE pepperoni pizza. It happened, it was delicious. Considering this is my high carb bloat number I’m still optimistic I will get back under 150 this round. I already ran a quick 2.5 miles and have a zoom yoga class this morning.

04/07 - 148.6 - On an uptick today. Had homemade street tacos with the usual fam last night (we help watch their kids [I'm an aunt!! Only child over here, so I am soaking that in] and the hubby is BF's boss so they sometimes have to work together) so hanging out for dinner really isn't violating social distancing any more than any other time of the day we may be assisting. Might as well combine forces and not waste food since we are already there (and total there are 4 adults and 2 children so still less than the 10 person gathering limit). Unfortunately, the food is AMAZING and very easy to overeat. Also desperately need to up my water intake. I've been slacking off horribly. Depending on how today goes, I should have yoga via zoom and I'm about to do some hip thrusts before BF wakes up since my back has been hurting a bit lately (surgeon's orders - keep glutes and hips strong and aligned to reduce pinching of my nerve and so far, it seems to help). Hoping today will be better activity-wise. No rain and temps back in 80s so maybe I can get outside for fresh air and a walk or something.
