We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/06 160.2 I'm down .8 pounds from last round. I'll do an indoor workout today as there's too much smoke from a nearby fire to go outside for a walk or run. Need to drink more water!
07/07 160.2 Need active friends please!
07/08 162.4 I went to the beach yesterday, and instead of packing a picnic, I bought one from the supermarket - full of foods that I don't normally eat. Yuck.
07/09 163.4 I needed another day off yesterday. I didn't log, but I'm back at it today. I have a lot of yuckiness to get out of my system today. Lots of water and a workout this evening with my trainer.
07/19 163.2 Had a great workout yesterday with my trainer and went for a walk this morning. Perhaps yoga later today.

@quiltingjaine Thirst is actually a topic I wonder about. My diabetic numbers are well in the normal but I am ALWAYS thirsty. I do not use salt or at many prepared foods so I know it isn't my sodium intake. What really brought it to light was my smart bottle that helps me reach my 80oz a day water intake goal, which I rarely do not hit. Two days ago, I drank 174 oz and was still thirsty when I went to bed. Just checked and yesterday was 120 oz. I know you can mess up your electrolytes by drinking too much water. Have you heard of any other health issues besides diabetes that can cause excessive thirst?1 -

Not drinking enough water in this heat we are experiencing. No exercise for the past two weeks due to nerve issues. At first, I thought maybe it stemmed from pressure on my sciatic nerve, but I had awful numbness and tingling sensations on my entire right side, from upper back to my foot. It could have been a mild case of shingles, because there was a rash on the back of my shoulder. I'm still experiencing some numbness and tingling sensations in my shoulder, arm ankle and heel, but I do feel like I could start exercising again. Need to get this excess fat and water retention OFF!
Hugs and welcome back Tia ~ so sorry you've been going through all that. Hope you're feeling better.

She is clothed in strength and dignity, and laughs without fear of the future. ~ ProverbsR115: 225.9 (+0.5)Goals: 9-12K steps daily / strength conditioning 5 days / IF 16:8 most days / 2-3 meals, no snacks
R116: 222.1 (-3.3)
R117: 218.8 (-3.3)
R118: 216.0 (-2.8)
07/06: 216.0 -- (IF 20, 3 small meals ~ 9,596 steps mostly dance, toning cardio circuit ~ 2,311 cals burned ~ 1,207 consumed)
07/07: feeling a bit lazy ~ good day to try some new stretching videos. (IF 15; 3 small meals, 9,847 steps ~ 2,182 burned ~ 1,286 consumed)
07/08: pushed past the lazy (it was hard! ~ best effort 75%-80% all day). Cardio, more toning and a TaeBo weight work yesterday. I've already did a bit of stretching; more later. Excited to start a virtual workout with a friend in Texas in desperate need of a workout buddy to help get back on track. I'll be in cheerleader mode for the next hour, lol ~ should be fun!
07/09: ended up 3 of us working out together ~ NY, TX and TN ~ was a great motivator for each uf us! We've committed to 3x a week for the rest of the month. Other than than, IF was only 12 hours; 2 small meals but also had a lovely bowl of captain crunch LNS. Step wise, recorded less than 3K ~ but it was hot, I was naked and could care less. Needed some "vitametavegemin" all day, lol. Feeling a bit better energy wise, but still taking it easy ~ (Darebee Hourglass & Daily Workouts for 35 minutes, Fat Loss Cardio 45 minutes and 10 mins of stretching) might be all there is today.
07/10: IF 16; 3 small meals; 8512 steps on a new Fitness Tracker. I'd been recording steps using an app on the phone and always knew it was slightly off .... but shocked @ how big the difference actually is!! Regarding my diet ~ been eating much lighter this week and there's obvious difference in energy and stamina levels because of it. (70-80% all week). Since I'm "lightening the load" primarily to give my system a break, I'd like to continue for maybe another week. Plan to keep movements easy and up my protein intake.
Overall though, feeling pretty good about other changes I'm beginning to see and feel within and without.

07/10 - 57.9kg, > 12,000 steps yesterday, I felt hungry and had to have a snack meal (healthy), dinner was so-so but healthy

Round 119 - Started MFP and 10-Day Challenge 12/27/19 - 186.0 (Heaviest weight ever!) I'm happy to have lost 10 pounds, but, man, it has taken a long time but mainly because I keep losing the same pounds over and over again.
Goal this round:
Do NOT eat sugar or white flour. These are my downfall. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I eat healthy most days except when I go on a binge for days. And what causes my binges/cravings? sugar and white flour
07/06 - 175.1 Huh? Too much salt, not enough water the past few days.
07/07 - 174.9
07/08 - 174.7
I usually stop eating around 5p each day. Last night around 7:30p I was so hungry I decided to eat a small amount over my calorie limit. I also chose something healthy - 2 carrots with ranch dressing that I made a few days ago with mostly buttermilk (only 100 calories a cup) and very little sour cream and mayo (I would have used plain yogurt but didn't have any). I also ate a small serving of leftover summer squash and cauliflower rice. I look at last night as a WIN because I got more vegetables in for the day, and because I chose healthy food and went over my calorie limit a little vs. the old me that would have had an all out binge. YAY!
07/09 - 174.7
07/10 - 174.7 Staying patient while I keep focused on all the healthy changes I'm making and all the little NSVs.

07/06: 264.6 ~ Family in town and I had a few drinks on the 4th, which is rare for me. I’ll be glad to just maintain in the 263-264 range because of the visitors, any loss at all will be a bonus!

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.
July: focus is on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:- 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 by keeping busy
Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 118 🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.
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.

Thank you, @lycheepancakes, @quiltingjaine, and @deepwoodslady. Yeah, some days he's just lucky he made it to 37 years.
Just kidding, he's a keeper, for sure.

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. Recovered from back then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurts!
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

07/06 - 191.2... Last challenge went really poorly for me and I have no idea why... I was good about my diet and exercise but still went up hopefully this challenge goes well for me. Working hard today and planned out lots of healthy meals for the day. Going to do some yoga and ab work today, no serious exercise because some jerk cut the water main to our street so we have no water today while it's being repaired and I don't want to get too sweaty.
07/07 - 192.6... what the heck? I feel like all I keep doing is exercising and cutting calories and all the scale keeps doing for the past two weeks is going up. Going to take a break from drinking wine each night and take closer look at my macros, see if I'm mis-tracking or retaining water or something. In the meantime, had a really nice run today. Usually I do 90 second run/walks for 30 minutes, today I did 3 min runs/90 seconds walks on my very hilly street, so I'm pleased w my cardio progress at least
07/08 - 192! At least I'm headed back in the right direction (gulp) or at least, I hope. Working hard today and sticking to my diet. Feeling proud of myself and hoping I can keep this up.
07/09 - 190.2! YAY! Feeling so happy that I'm coming back down. Running and working today, have been making really good progress on my writing so I'm extra happy about that and motivated to keep it up. Lots of healthy meals planned for today, hoping to ride this wave towards more weight loss progress
07/10 - 191... not psyched. Gotta keep on making progress and pushing forwards

07/06 144.6 lbs -0.6 1,746 Calories, 73 Carbs, 44 Net Carbs, 6,328 steps and 30 minutes water aerobics.
07/07 145.2 lbs + 0.6. I just kept snacking last night. It was healthy veggies and dip. But calories add up. So No Surprise here! 1,520 Calories, 46 Carbs, 23 Net Carbs, and 8,141 steps. Corrected 7/06’s numbers!! That still might be wrong because I didn’t weigh my snacks. That can make a big difference
07/08 145.2 ➡️ 1,589 Calories, 43 Carbs, 23 Net Carbs, and 8,719 steps. This is maintenance hope I can keep it up! 👍
07/09 145.0 lbs, 1,448 Calories, 28 Carbs, 15 Net Carbs, and 9,329 steps. Good day, I kept busy and that always help me from snacking!
07/19 144.6 lbs. 1,557 Calories, 36 Carbs, 15 Net Carbs, and 7,267 steps. It has been a sad week, we lost 2 close friends to cancer. Both families decided to have private funerals due to COVID-19.
