Day/Weight/Comment
05/07 - 346.8 - A little tick down. I'm gradually starting to do more with weight/bands and it feels good. I found it feels even better if I stretch or do yoga beforehand. My morning walk is a great warmup, I just gotta keep going.
05/08 - 346.7 - Another little tick down. I like it. I watched a news story about COVID19 starting much earlier than previously thought (late December). Apparently, it was found in Wuhan in early November and in FRANCE in mid-December. I bring this up because in late January, I got a terrible cold and cough I could not shake. Then gave it to my mom. After about 2 weeks, I got concerned enough about my mom that I took her to her doctor. She was given some meds for inflammation and an antibiotic. It took a few days, but she got better. I bring this up because it now seems possible that many of us (up to 20 million) may have had an early version and most of us got over it. Just putting this out there. I'm not letting down my guard, but I'd be pretty happy if we already got thru this and my 82 y.o., breathing-compromised mom got past it, too.

Starting weight is 238.6. Lost 3.4 pounds last round.
Goals worked well last round, so I will continue them for one more: Walk at least 20 minutes every day, log food, avoid sugar and alcohol and the usual empty calories, take my meds every day on schedule, and drink my water. With those goals, my target weight for this cycle is 236.
05/07 Weight 238.8; Goals - walk: yes, 90 minutes; food: yes, 500 calories under; empty calories: 200, could have done better; med: yes; water: yes, 8.
05/08 Weight 238.4; Goals- walk: yes, 65 minutes;food: yes, 500 calories under; empty calories 250 too many; meds: yes; water: yes, 8. Stayed within my calories, but dinner was mediocre pizza from a local restaurant. Really disappointing, and I physically feel bloated and lousy. It's going to be below freezing tonight, so my morning walk may or may not take place tomorrow. Let's see how the weight and blood sugar look in the morning.

I' m in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!
70 year 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. Then I had hip surgery March 10th. Recovery is slow. Sure do want to be back walking!
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

@HoopsGuy72
Very insightful posts.
I have noticed too, when I go off course I don't want to log it and the next step has been quitting altogether many times. I want to be gentle with myself and keep recording the good, the, bad, and the ugly without the guilt/shame and see if I can get back on course when I get off without making it into more than a blip.5 -

Same here, although this group has helped me stay accountable for the longest on MFP. I did give up at the beginning of lockdown for the first time in 6 months which was my longest streak ever on MFP. The support here is so nice to help with it all. I'm looking forward to the next 6 months accountability!7 -

Goals
Getting back on track, logging consistently and staying withing MFP planned cal intake
05/07 157.6 (+7.2) 12.318 steps, 6km walk. I used my lowest weight from a few rounds ago although I’ve been weighing every couple of days since. My weight has been up and down since lockdown but definitely always a little bit more up. Asides from lockdown which is such a big problem, I’ve still also got this hip pain for which I was supposed to go for a scan before lockdown. Now I can walk (not too much) and I can cycle. Life won’t realistically get back to normal for months and I now realise how much I counted on being active and exercise as a weight loss (and sanity) tool. I’m still adapting to the new situation. Food is also an issue as prices have gone up, as a one income household I already found it a squeeze to buy all veggies and fresh food, now it’s really a problem. It’ll take time to get used to this but I’m sure we’ll all get there eventually
05/08 157.6 (-0.0) 10296 steps, 4km walk. Not surprised that I didn’t loose anything yesterday. I was within calories but only with the added walk benefit, I ate too much at lunch time and thinking of fasting for the rest of the day but didn’t make it. But this time I planned all todays meals in advance, including snacks, now I just have to stick with it. I’ll try and get a bike ride done today, I’m soooo tired! My daughter hasn’t slept well since the beginning of lockdown… she says she’s scared of the story of the bogeyman which she’s just discovered, I think it’s more this weird situation that’s coming out, she’s 11. I’ve been going on 4-5hrs of sleep for the last 2 months, feels like having a new born again lol
05/09 157.0 (-0.6) no steps, I didn’t even put on my garmin, just exhausted lol But happy to see at least a little loss even though I didn’t do any exercise, tiredness got the best of me yesterday and I didn’t do anything. Next week my daughter will stay at her fathers for a few days and I’ll be able to catch up on some much-needed sleep. Today I don’t have that much planned, maybe a bike ride or a walk, I have yet to plan my daily meals this morning and do some cleaning. Tomorrow my father is coming over for a Sunday Roast for the 1st time since lockdown, and then we’ll take some distance again as my daughter will be going back to school 2 days a week and we don’t want to take any risks. Ok, so it's just past 7am here, going get my day started by putting on my step tracker and doing some steps with a "walk at home" on YouTube Hope you all have a good day !

Goal – end lower than started......again! - aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep this 10 days binge free!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/07 134.4 – 10.88 miles walked yesterday. I need to get a grip back on my eating, last couple of days I've been out of control again. Gonna try to get back on today especially because this bank holiday weekend I know I will be more relaxed with VE celebrations albeit at home just me & my DH together, weather permitting in the garden.
05/08 DNW – totally forgot!! When I remembered I was dressed and had eaten breakfast !! 9.63 miles walked yesterday, stayed within calories until clap for NHS & key workers on the doorstep turned into an impromptu street party till 10.45 pm; a few bevies were downed! Have a good VE day, enjoy any celebrations that you have planned in the safety of your own homes/gardens.
05/09 136.6 – well that's the VE day celebration results and do you know what I don't regret it, we got together as a street to celebrate albeit still maintaining social distancing, hung out the flags, some of us dressed up, had afternoon tea and continued through the afternoon into the night, sharing food, drinks, chatting & laughing, had a quiz and ended up with dancing. A brilliant way to bring the community together. I did manage to get a walk in during the morning 7.97 miles. Today back on it!!

@kecward78 - I was interested in this too as was one of my neighbours I was talking across to yesterday. Boxing day I started with a 24 hour "bug", on comparing notes we both had a very high temperature, but felt tremdesly freezing cold, extremely fatigued & had no desire to eat whatsoever (which is not me!!). After 24 hours started to feel a bit better. Both of us wonder if we had contracted a mild version of the virus!! Who knows?3

05/07 : 139.0 (-1.0) I have been hovering around 139 for several weeks now. I know I am eating more carbs etc but I am exercising more too. I still would like to lose 2 but also keep adding more strength work so that might add muscle which weighs more so then its really about how my clothes fit.
05/08: 137.8 (-1.2) No idea why the big drop. Ate ok until the tootsie roll attack. Did walk, strength, and bike so I definitely moved. Good dinner.
05/09: DNW – forgot before I drank coffee etc. and got dressed. Doing a long ride today.

@kecward78 We have the same issue. My DH went to India for 2 weeks in late Nov/Early Dec. Got sick (always does) with a fever, aches, slight cough. Took some antibiotics the doc gave him to take with him. He came home and proceeded to have the dry cough for about 3 weeks. Same deal with the guy that he traveled with. I am having him go get the Cellex antibody test next week as we are curious. I have doctor friends that said they saw Covid symptoms circulating in fall that tested negative for Influenza. My son lives in NYC. We are pretty sure he had it in March. Never got tested since he was not having major breathing issues but felt crappy for about 5 days. He is coming home in a few weeks and I have an appt for him to get the antibody test.3

Can I say that I'm way more fit than I have ever been in my life. I'm actually scared about moving to maintenance soon, but I'm not thinking maintenance yet. I know how these roller coasters go.
5/09- 149.4 YAY! I reached goal! OMG. I almost can't believe it. I even had chinese carry out last night, but hiked a good 5 miles. WOW! Just wow. Will FP adjust my calories to maintenance automatically or do I need to go change something? I'm going to complete this challenge because this is a lifestyle change and I'm pretty sure I'll need to keep logging to stay on track and continue to make good choices. Keep going everyone. It is worth it. The biggest thing I've learned is if you feel starved change what you're eating, for me it is making sure I get enough protein.14 -

I went to a nearby park yesterday for a walk, and holy cow, it was very busy with many groups of 4-8 people on the paths, no masks (except mine), no sense of holding back to allow distancing. I ended up cutting my walk short, getting off the path and onto the grass to get back to my car. I simply don’t get it. I guess I need to get my fanny out very early for walks. On a happier note, I get to pick up a bunch of plants from our Botanical Conservatory’s annual sale this afternoon! Yay!
5/08/20 - 181.6
Now that I have a bunch of new plants to plant, we’re getting a freeze tonight. So the plants are snuggled in for now on top of the washer and dryer. 🌿🌸🌱 We’ve been having some nice conversations. 😁 In the meantime, I have a loaf of cinnamon raisin bread in the oven — the last of my gift list for members of our congregation, although I’m going to bake more bread for friends — the looks on people’s faces when you deliver home baked bread is priceless! 🥖 Plus I love to bake but don’t need the results within snacking distance. It’s a win-win!

Cold night last night, but I covered my tulip buds, and everything else seems to have made it, too. Everything’s coming back to life. Last year this time there was nothing in this bed except the roses and a couple of really hideous shrubs. Now it makes me happy. Have a lovely Saturday, all. Be well.

I'm going to try this again...Thank you all for still being here, was really excited to see this challenge still going from when I used it over 2 years ago. I didn't achieve much last round...except for starting the habit of daily accountability. This round I'm going to work more on my food habits, I need to figure out a way to keep shoving bad snacks in my face in the late afternoon and later evening.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/07: 182.2 - basically back where I started at the beginning of last round. We've been filling in our Family calendar with national and international celebration days since there are not band rehearsals, sports, volunteer groups happening right now...and yesterday was "No Diet Day" so my boys requested all the fried food and poutine....we haven't had poutine in over 2 months, it's usually only an eat out treat for us, but my "homemade" version was SOOOOO good....
05/08: 179.2 - flushed a lot of that end of cycle hormone bloat yesterday, I could almost feel it leaving thought the day. Food choices were great!! Had extra salad instead of the noodles I made for everyone else as a side at dinner last night. Found out yesterday that the August gift show I usually work on for my main freelance clients has officially been cancelled for this year. It's one of my main gigs and at this point I'm usually putting together planograms and sample orders for it....I'm still hopeful that as our province begins to re-open more that they'll still be needing me to work in their showrooms. I'm really missing my creative work life right now
05/09: 179.0 - Good day yesterday great hike with the dog in the morning, kind of boring day but ended with an awesome virtual chat with one of my housemates from university. We've been doing zoom coctail parties every couple of weeks since isolation started, but tonight only she and I could make it, we were going to cancel but so glad we had a chance to connect one on one. We got 2 inches of snow last night...so I'm not very motivated to do our regular morning hike today, maybe I'll get one of the boys to pick up the kettlebells with me this afternoon.

5/9-154-I’m OK with this. The movers brought our items from storage and I walked 5.5 miles putting it away. We are in the process of moving from where we have lived for the last year and it is hot. I’m off to the grocery store and will look like a hoarder, loading the empty refrigerator and cupboards.8 -
@MomLarisa -Way to go! Congratulations on making it into the 140’s!!!!!!!🌸5

05/09 - 148.6 - Very happy to be down and didn't expect this much of a drop (or to meet goal so soon!) Busy busy day yesterday and did not get to post. Almost didn't get a chance to weigh in, either. Went to an equine therapy place (I love being around animals), had a very large lunch, and last night was leftover night. Didn't eat but a small handful of chips because my stomach still full-hurt from lunch. Got my fitbit yesterday and I feel normal again. So happy. Upgraded, too, so when I go for walks or try running, I can watch my real-time pace. Now to be good through the weekend and stay under goal! Feeling pretty motivated so hopefully that will carry me through.

Previous Day's Comments05/07 - That's a bigger drop than I expected all at once... Only had a couple bites at dinner as I wasn't very hungry -- noticed I really only ate those few bites because I love egg rolls and I wanted to try this place (one of the few in town I had not yet been to/ordered from previously). After that, I was content to go back outside away from the kitchen and food without much issue or feeling deprived. I'm sure I'll be up and down this round, but I'm going to try my hardest to focus on portion control -- even with healthy options, I over-indulge more often than I should. I think if I can portion things out, particularly at dinner, my weight won't bounce around like it has continuously done since I moved here. At least, not as severely (I don't think +/- 5 or more lbs day to day is very good for me given my normal "focused" fluctuations were more like +/- 0.2-1.5lbs depending on sodium intake and hormones).

@matratazola It is an odd thing with moving to find balance. The thing that's really getting to me, I think, is that I can find balance right now (5 weeks after move), but its going to change again once we stop working remote and I start commuting to work (which I have not yet done, so that'll be an adjustment period all on its own). What I need to start doing is to carve out some time to plan and make lunches for "work" so when I do start commuting, I've already figured out a system. Its too easy right now to finish my task, walk to the kitchen and find something to eat, then go back to my computer. Not going to work that way in the coming weeks! The closest place to grab food from work (that I've found using maps), is about a 15-20 minute drive. We have a 30 minute lunch Plus, that's "fast food" so not at all healthy. I have a feeling my salad game is about to be strong since they're fairly easy to put together when short on time5
