Day/Weight/Comment
05/07 - 64.4kg, happy with that, yesterday was fine and I had plenty of walking.
05/08 - 64.3kg, I got a msg yesterday that I hadn't eaten enough! So useful, thanks MFP :-)
05/09 - 64.1kg, nothing new, just the same old, 16,000 steps a day, just over 1,000 calories eaten a day
05/10 - 64.1kg, a plateau! Probably a good thing, wouldn't want to lose too fast ;-)
05/11 - 64.1kg, so stuck! But it's better than a bounce to the upside.
05/12 - 64.0kg, should I eat more? Is my metabolism slowing down?
05/13 - 64.7kg, yay! At last a drop. - **edited** to report 63.7kg
05/14 - 63.6kg, noticed the mispost yesterday. The weight's dropping so fast I lose track, ha ha

I"ve been gone for about two years. Food diary is open. I'm working with delivered food from the community we live in and what we can order from the grocery store.

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.

Heaviest: 192.2
Round GW: 143.0

05/10: 186 I'm back! 2020 has been super rough so far. I separated from my husband at the beginning of the year and ended up in hospital for a week and a half in March due to a severe UC flare. I lost over 20lbs and got sick of people telling me how wonderful I am for losing 6+lbs in a week so I stopped coming on myfitnesspal. I'm on cortisone steroids and immunosuppressants now and feeling sooo much better. However, I gained a lot of weight back so I'm trying to get rid of it again!
05/11 186.6 tom - I'm really hoping the steroids are causing me to retain a bunch of water. I'm tapering off them right now but still have another 5 weeks to get off them completely. I really can't wait to be off them - I'm just hungry allllll the time as well.
05/12 186.2 I finally had a good eating day yesterday!

meaning I didn't eat everything in sight lol.
05/13 184.6 Woohoo! Feeling good! 😁

Round 112 SW 242
Round 113 SW 238.6

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.

05/09 Weight 236.6; I am highly suspicious that this is a scale prank, we'll find out tomorrow. But even if it is tease it is very nice to see! Blood sugar was excellent (for me) this morning, 86. Goals - walk: yes, 90 minutes; log food: yes, 500 under; empty calories: FAIL. Too many, I am getting sloppy on this again; meds: yes; water: yes, 10 so far.

05/10 Mothers Day was strange and it disrupted a lot of the routine. Spent a good deal of time standing in my mother's, and then later my step-mother's, front yards social distancing and visiting. Early dinner was take out Chinese food, at my wife's request. It was my only meal of the day and it STILL almost busted my calories. Weight 236.6; Goals - walk, no, first miss on this in weeks; log food: yes, under but just barely; empty calories: not many; meds: yes; water: 9.

05/11 Beautiful day for a walk! Weight 236.6; blood sugar this morning: 89; Goals - walk: yes, 80 minutes; log food: yes, 500 under; empty calories: 140; meds: yes; water: 11 so far.

05/12 Weight 236.2; blood sugar this morning 89; Goals - walk: yes, 30 minutes; log food: yes, but misjudged it, went 200 calories over. ugh. empty calories: NONE - no snacks. meds: yes; water: yes,9.

05/13 Weight 235.8, which is better than my goal for the week!; sugar was 75 this morning; Goals - Walk: yes, 48 minutes at a faster pace than usual. I was pushing it to see how quickly I could finish 3.2 miles; log food: yes, just below target; empty calories: 145; meds: yes; water: 9 and counting.

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! Keep calm, wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

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!!
05/10 136.6 – 9.31 miles walked yesterday, a really good day foodwise, 390 calories in credit, all macros in green. Was hoping for a slight drop, but we all know loses take much longer than gains, so patience, consistency and determination will win!!
05/11 135 – 8.33 miles walked yesterday. That's better! 411 calories in credit, all other macros in green.
05/12 134.4 – 9.2 miles walked yesterday. Yes! VE day celebrations gone, back to start of round weight. 392 calories in credit, all calories in green. Feeling good and in the game again!
05/13 133.4 – 9 miles walked yesterday. 604 calories in credit, all calories in green. Very pleased with this weight, would be happy to maintain it until end of round.
05/14 133.4 – 10.45 miles walked yesterday. 354 calories in green, fat 7 over, all other macro in green.

Previous days:

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 exchausted 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 to plan my daily meals yet 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 to be 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 !

05/10 157.0 (0.0) 13.551 steps, 9km walk. Yesterday was a good day, even without any weight loss. It was a lovely day and I went for a long walk in the afternoon. My daughter has started her horse riding lessons again and the stables are outside of town in a lovely area with villages, parks, lakes and forests. It was so nice to get out of the city for a walk, something we haven’t been able to do for 2 months. Today the weather is supposed to turn rainy with a high wind warning, but I’m hoping it’ll happen late enough in the afternoon that I can go for a quick bike ride beforehand. Shops are re-opening this week, I'm wondering if I can take my daughter clothes shopping, she's gone through a growth spurt and asides from some extra warm winter leggings and pullovers which we bought in February nothing fits. It's going to be interesting that's one thing for sure!

05/11 157.0 (0.0) Status quo. It was Mother’s Day here in Belgium yesterday so I had a nice family meal and some delicious chocolate cake for dessert. My father came over for lunch, we stayed with masks on just in case except for eating of course when he sat at one end of the table and us at the other, it was a bit weird! His health isn’t good in general so we’re minimizing risks. Bad weather hit mid-morning so there was no question of going out anywhere for the whole day. I avoided the fridge for the rest of the day and had a plate of leftover vegetables for dinner. All in all, a good day, yet again even without any loss, because more is up as we can go outside a little more now. Today is a busy day and I’m even going into the office for a couple of hours later. Taking the bike as well 😊

05/12 156.4 (-0.6) not a lot of steps but more than 1000 cal left over due to extra cycling. Gosh what a difference having a busy day does, I was out most of the day which was so nice and didn’t think of food at all. I went to the office, we’re not reopening till mid-June probably, everything is going on as normal for us with videoconferences although everyone is looking forward to going back to normal. Today I’m planning a 2h walk while my daughter is at her horse-riding lesson. We’ll see later if we feel like doing anything in the afternoon. Have a good day all 😊

05/12 157.6 (+1.2) 10472 steps, 8km walk, not sure at all where that gain came from, in fact weighed myself twice as I thought I had misread … Well it’s another day today and the highlight today is that it’s food shopping day. I’ve planned my meals for a week and it all looks healthy, I’ll get extra fruit and stuff for snacks. No exercise planned today as I woke up with an arthritis flare my joints are stiff and achy

05/13 156.0 (-1.6) rest day. As I said yesterday, I had no idea where that gain had come from and I’m very happy to see it disappear overnight with a little extra! As for my arthritis flare, I’ve still some pain in joints and general tiredness so it’ll probably be another rest day today. This morning I had an early rheumatologist appointment for my quarterly check-up, he had a look at the pain in my hip I have every time I try to run, it seems I’ve done something to the sacroiliac joint and I need an MRI to see what the problem is exactly, I don’t think I’ll be able to run any time soon, thank goodness I can still use my bike! Yesterday I went shopping and bought lots of healthy food to nibble on.

First full round with the group! Looking for accountability and some slow/consistent changes. This round is about adding activity to my days and not focusing on the past - just where I’m going!

Journey Start: 4/20/2020 155.8 lbs
Journey Goal: 140 lbs
R112 start/end: 152/153.2
Round 113 Goal: 150 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
05/07 152 Off my 153.2 plateau hopefully. It’s time to move the scale this round. I’m motivated.
05/08 151.4 Walked around the neighborhood yesterday and glad I did! 1.4 miles is way better than just the desk to the kitchen! 🤣 Happy Friday! I’m thinking of some weekend intentions to keep on similar schedule and meal times as much as possible.
05/09 152.4
05/10
05/11 153.4 (did not keep routine)
05/12 151.8 Yesterday I recorded but didn’t post because I was reflecting on the gain. It’s going to take more intentional methods to see the scale change. I don’t get excited about intermittent fasting, but that is what works. I’m going to stick with it for the rest of the round.
05/13 152.4 I think my dinner is still with me 🤣 I did walk 1.7 miles yesterday. That felt really good. It’s a brand new day and I’m not giving up.
05/14 151.8 I had a very sensible dinner last night and feeling good today. Woke up hungry but going to stick to the plan!

05/14 - 150.6 - That's surprising! Was invited to partake in a homemade spaghetti bake with homemade garlic bread and cucumber tomato salad a friend made. Tried to portion it, but given it was a bake, it was very hard to get the noodles to cooperate. Considered seconds but glad I did not give in! That's a mini NSV for me (and for BF as he considered seconds as well but ended up not getting it). Figured I'd still be up, especially the way my belly looks (bloated and really squishy -- yesterday it was like that, too, and I was way up). Maybe the rain will hold off (last night weather changed its predictions from 60% chance to 20% chance!) and I can go for a walk. BF has to go help someone pick up a vehicle in a town 2 hours away so he'll be gone for a short bit-- if it works out with my meetings, I'll go for a nice walk (: Need to do something about this crazy squishy belly bloat, its really got my self confidence down. Especially since I've been higher weight with a smaller belly. Ick! Pushing water again today since I'm really slacking at getting even close to my water goal.

Previous Day's Comments

05/07 - 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).
05/08 - DNP
05/09 - 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.
05/10 - DNP
05/11 - All good, TOM is on its way and I'm holding on to water weight. Keeping myself busy with work now that BF is out of the house (him and his best friend [we help watch their kids so they're part of who we are social distancing with] took the day off to go target practice) Hoping that staying busy will keep me from overeating or mindlessly boredom eating. Depending on how work is, I may take the dog for a walk. She's a handful to walk with, but it'll be good for us both.
05/12 - TOM did arrive and took some water weight with. Probably would've taken more, but the shooting range the boys went to yesterday is closed on Mondays. So they signed up for a local wine club in town and decided to pick us up girls and take us to 2 wineries for wine tastings (because of COVID, its members only and only 1 tasting per visit, versus the normal 2 or 3). I know very little about wine, and this was my first time at a winery ever, but we are trying to build a stock at the house so the tastings are nice -- lots to learn, especially living in the Napa Valley of Texas. I've counted 26 wineries in town and I know I haven't seen them all. Then the best friend and his wife (fam) made homemade quesadillas with some fajita meat that was about to go bad if not used. Too much cheese for me! Don't know of plans today, but maybe I'll get a chance to take the dog out later for a walk. Raining right now so we will have to be patient. If rain stops, it'll also be a good opportunity to try to salvage a pretty flower I got that apparently cannot survive in a pot -- ground will be wet and moveable after a couple weeks of 90+ degrees and no rain.

edit: I just looked at the weather -- rain and thunderstorms almost daily until the 22nd and scattered throughout today. Maybe the walk with the dog will have to be postponed.
05/13 - I have no idea.... besides maybe a handful of tortilla chips and a fairly salty tasting side dish? I stuck to small portions but maybe the salt did it? I'm getting worried I now won't get to goal or below before end of round. Hoping today is better. Definitely drinking more water to help flush the salt and remaining TOM water weight. All I want is a nap and I just woke up (in the middle of a dream, too! Hello all-day grogginess)

Day/Weight/Comment

05/07 – 157.4 lbs 1100 calories, 12,000 steps, IF 16 hours Lots of errand shopping today, hoping to pick a bunch of stuff up for graduation but most exciting I get to go the greenhouse today. YaY!

05/08 - 157.2 lbs, 900 calories, 10,000 steps, IF 16 hours. Feeling hugely relieved getting most of my Graduation shopping done, including the cake ordered. Unfortunately I can't plant my plants in pots, This morning we were 25 and tomorrow we are to have a low of 20 with 1-3 inches of snow and 30 mph sustained wind. Ugh!

05/09 - 158.6 lbs 1100 calories, 16,000 steps IF 16 hours. We definitely got the sleet and 3 inches of snow.

05/10 - 159.0 lbs 900 calories, 6000 steps IF 16 hours, Finished Quilting a wall hanging for a friends birthday. Happy Mother's Day!

05/11 - 159.2 lbs 1400 calories, 6000 steps IF 16 hours. Back to spring cleaning today. Hopefully the sun comes out, low last night was 20.

05/12 - 158.0 lbs 900 calories, 12,000 steps IF 16 hours. Today looks promising for sun and high maybe mid 40's, yay. Why is it you take most every thing out of a room and love it's look and wish you really didn't have to find room for all that stuff you took out. LOL

05/13 - 157.6 lbs 22,000 steps, IF 16 hours, to busy to count calories but it was the same thing I usually eat with no snacking. More rain, at least I can spring clean and not worry about doing any yard work. LOL

05/14 - 158.2 lbs 10,000 steps IF 16 hours I did not count again but should of been the same. I just seem to bounce so this is normal. Trip to town today with my usual crew. We are hoping our one loan clothing store in town has opened up again. I have lost 20 lbs since fall and I really could use a smaller size. I really dislike buying pants on line and stores farther away have not opened yet for clothes either.

Round 112 SW 151.4 EW 151.4

5/07- 151.2 It would be amazing if I reached goal this challenge, but we'll see.
5/08- 150.2 Holy *kitten*. I'm there. I want to actually get to 150. But I made it. I haven't seen this number since my wedding day in 2002 and prior to that high school. 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.
5/10-150.4
5/11- 152.2 I'm so not surprised. I went way over calories. My mom brought a cherry pie and I ate 2 pieces, and cookies and carry out. It was probably worth it. I haven't adjusted my goal as I now I have to get down 2 lbs again. I'm going to spend some time trying to figure out what I want maintenance to be. Probably anything below 150. And I'm not there consistently at all yet. But that's OK. This isn't a race.
5/12- 151.8 getting back to where I need to be. I've felt a little run down did no work out/activity which is rare for me. It was also freezing here.
5/13- 149.4 good

Hi, I’m Karen and I’m in my 50’s
OSW-187 Sept. 2018

Goal Weight this Round: Stay in 50’s
Drink plenty of water and get the boxes unpacked.
RSW-153 RGW-150
5/7-153-Off to meet movers to load the truck. Long day.
5/8-DNW
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.
5/10-154
5/11-153-My husband had our boys surprise me and they showed up to help us get moved and to celebrate Mother’s Day and my birthday. It was a wonderful weekend and we all got to spend the first night in our new house together.
5/12-153-Glad to be holding. I cut up lemons and cucumbers had them in my water all day. Same today; it makes me feel healthy. I’m taking a walk this morning, then by quilt shop that is only open 2 hrs./week. Then back to working on boxes.
5/13-152-Walked some in the morning, then worked on boxes and unpacking and ended up walking 6 miles. Lots of water.
5/14-151-IF for 19 hrs. Ate sensibly, no walk but on my feet all day, drinking lemon/cucumber water. No cravings for junk.

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!

5/09/20 - 181.6
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.

5/10/20 - 182
Ok, I saw that coming. I went a little nuts last night and snacked in the evening. Emotional eating. But my average over the week is well below maintenance, so this is temporary. Planning a walk if the rain and wind hold off. Maybe a little gardening, too.

5/11/20 -181.6
Cold nasty wind, rain today....frost again tonight. I’m being extra wimpy about outdoor activity because I don’t want to get any kind of sick right now. I think I’ll order more yarn. 🧶

I spent most of the day yesterday on my butt updating my website and, when I got sick of that, knitting and listening to audio books. I’d forgotten what a rabbit hole that can be! This is supposed to be the last of the chilly days around here. I hope so! I’m itching to get into my garden and to amp up my walking program to get back to my old 5-10 miles a day. I felt so much better when I was doing that. The habit fell by the wayside 2 years ago when I got PMR. It’s time! I hope you’re all doing well.

5/13/20 - 181.8
Trying to cut myself some slack but I’m pretty disappointed in myself righ5 now for regaining so much weight and hanging out in this neighborhood for the past 3.5 months. Not sure if I need a hug or a kick in the pants. Maybe both? Anyway, it’s a lovely day so I’m off to walk on the Rivergreenway and then stop by one of my favorite nurseries—need some happy flowers. Be well!

Sodium. Pizza. Excuses. Kicking myself.
