Goal weight: 130
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.
07/10 163.2 Had a great workout yesterday with my trainer and went for a walk this morning. Perhaps yoga later today. 7,652 steps
07/11 161.2 I need to make sure this isn't dehydration. How many times to I mention I need to drink more water? 7,846 steps
07/12 162.0 Strength training today. 3,666 steps. It was 110 F outside. I wasn't going out.
07/13 Forgot to weigh. Going out for a walk before the temperature climbs up too high.

End of round 115: 235.2
End of round 116: 232.0
End of round 117: 228.6
End of round 118: 227.6
7/6: 226.0 First day of getting back to strict tracking after a couple looser days produces a nice drop on the scale. Still feeling a little bloated, so we’ll see what happens in another day or two.
7/7: 227.0 Had a hefty late night snack around 1 AM, so I’m not surprised to see a bump despite technically being within my calories. Walked a ton but ate most of the calories back.
7/8: 226.0 Might have to cut back on exercise a bit today; I’ve been doing a lot for the last week and my body is sore. I hate to do it because of the Apple Watch challenge I’m in, but I think I need a light day.
7/9: 224.8 Another drop and a new 5-pound mark. Probably be up a bit tomorrow - gotta recognize the low fluctuations as much as the high ones - but I’ll take it for today, and get back to it for real soon.
7/10: 225.6 Very snack-y day yesterday. Half expected this to be higher, really.
7/11: 225.6 Happy to have held even. Pot roast and mashed potatoes at my parents’ house and had two plates - one of those meals that won’t hurt you every now and then but adds on the pounds if you make a habit of it!
7/12: 227.0 Ha. I predicted this number before I got on the scale, which should tell you something about how much I ate yesterday. Gotta get back on track to make this a temporary blip.
7/13: 226.0 Seems to be a recurring weight this round. Ate within my calories, working on pulling this trend back in the right direction.

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!

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:Never give up! Never give in!- 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
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.🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.

07/06: 150.8: Goals🌟I’m still upping my training intensity, so this is not exactly a surprise. Weight training and jogging are both known to increase water retention, so I’m just going with that. It’s gotta settle down eventually.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

07/05 …..207.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/06 …..207.5 ….. I did really well during the holiday weekend. I couldn’t afford a set-back. Too busy for planned exercise, not enough water and little to no sleep but at least the diet was on point and the scale rewarded me a bit for that! Good luck everyone this round. You guys are Rocking It!!!!
07/77 …..208.6 ….. A small cheeseburger from McDonald’s with water. It tasted like a salt shaker (again). I forgot how salty!!!! Wow how my tastebuds have changed. This is probably fluid retention. Tomorrow will tell.
07/08 …..208.4 ….. Downward I go. Just not fast enough but patience is a virtue and so I’ll stay calm.
07/09 …..208.4 ….. There is not enough water on this EARTH for the thirst that I am experiencing!!!!
07/10 …..209.0 ….. Mexican food – half for lunch and half for dinner. Actually did not finish the dinner and completely ignored the rice, throwing it away too. Growing up so poor, it is not always easy for me to throw away food or not finish what is on my plate, so I call this a NSV for me. I am trying to learn that it is okay to be full and not need to eat more just because it’s not all gone yet. Today I will try to get the scale back down and drink more water too.
07/11 …..209.8 ….. WTHeck? I food prepped, ate low carb diet well and kept calories way down. Still retaining some sort of water? I don’t know how when I am sweating like this. I am not going to get discouraged. I must just keep up the good fight.
07/12 …..209.6 ….. Up fast, down slow but I do get how it works in general. Ugg.
07/13 …..209.6…..

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

I’m so happy to see this challenge is still going! A year ago I joined this group and felt the best I had in a long time. I got busy in the fall, stopped logging and posting to this challenge and, no surprise, all progress was quickly lost. I’m ready to recommit with a focus on consistency. Thanks @GrandmaJackie7

@Tesha231 Hi! My “eating Windows” are not IF, but related to a concept from the Half Size Me podcast, to declare certain times of day when you eat (including snacks) and avoid eating at other times. It comes from the idea that grazing is often an issue of having unstructured time. So a way to handle the “I wants” is to say “sure you can have, but only at your next eating window, which is at xx o’clock”...by then I usually don’t want it and am fine eating whatever I had planned anyway. Cheers!7

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 119 (round 51 for me ) I'm in for another round (of course!) – I need to just keep going! Yet again thank you @GrandmaJackie, such a champion particularly in these unprecidented times, helping keep some stability in our lives, for setting up these challenges.
Female age 62 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 – get back to 133 for this round.... - aim to get back to & stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep the 10 days binge free! Keep calm, wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

07/06 135.4 - 9.69 miles walked yesterday, wonderful day in the National Forest! 57 calories in credit, 10g fat over.
07/07 134.6 - 8.54 miles walked yesterday. 183 calories in credit, 13 carbs over.
07/08 134.2 - 2.81 miles walked yesterday, rain all day hence low mileage and it means that well over on calories, also high sodium ready meal last night means that tomorrow will probably be up.
07/09 134.8 - 8 miles walked yesterday all along the prom. at the seaside, first time at the sea this year ! 328 calories in credit, 15 carbs over.
07/19 135.2 - persistent rain meant no walking yesterday, got to spend time with DS & DGD. Food choices sensible but way over all macros ?
07/11 135.2 - 11.4 miles walked yesterday, almost no rain ! Makes all the the difference to me; 550 valid and all other macros in green.
07/12 135.4 - 8.3 miles walked yesterday. 61 calories in credit, but 12 carbs over.
07/13 135.8 – travelled back from our caravan week away yesterday hence only 3.87 miles walked. Back home now & back to usual routine & no alcohol until weekends, 2 days to improve on round start weight.
07/14 135.2 – 8.52 miles walked yesterday, 721 calories in credit all macros in green. Devestating news last night about our 5 ½ month DGS, going into 4th week in hospital. His liver is not in a good condition and his other genetic health problems mean he is not a suitable candidate for a transplant, poor little mite, if you believe please include him in your prayers, he needs a miracle. We can't visit cuz of this wretched covid, but they did allow our DD to bring him out on Saturday afternoon for an hour, we met up in the park opposite and had a cuddle with him. Feeling very despondent but have to try to keep positive for DD & family.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/06–177.2 I’m pretty pleased with my control over the holiday weekend. I did make a dessert for the 4th, but worked it into my calories for the day (two actually) and continued to lose a little along the way. That’s progress. No self-sabotage on this holiday weekend! I’ll call that a win!
07/07–176.2 Got up early to get my walk in before it became a scorcher of a day here yesterday. Then I managed to stay under in calories despite giving in to some fresh made tortilla chips my daughter brought over—they were still warm! Drank lots of water though yesterday, and will need to do that again today to combat that salt. Still may bounce back up a bit, but at least I’m very happy with the trend right now!
07/08–176.4 Just normal fluctuation. Was well within calorie range, but rested yesterday, so no formal exercise. I have begun to play with IF again. Did 16:8 the day before and 17:7 yesterday. Will just see if that is a good addition to all the other things I’ve changed the last few weeks. I won’t go extreme, though, and may not do it everyday. Just looking at it as another tool in the toolbox.
07/09–175.6 Another really good day yesterday. Got up early for my walk, ate well within plan even though we ate out last night. I was super careful with my choices at dinner, but enjoyed it immensely. We got a rain which cooled things off late in the day, so I went out for another walk after dinner. I’m enjoying these drops, but I also know it will slow WAY down before very long. Did 17:7 IF.
07/10–176.4 I did wonder yesterday about that drop, so I guess this means it was a fluke. It’s ok. I am more in control now than I’ve been in over a year. I did make homemade panini sandwiches for dinner last night for the family and had part of one, so maybe it was the bread. Haven’t had much bread of late. Did 18:6 IF.
07/11–176.4 I’m not sad about this. We had a celebratory lunch with my daughter yesterday at a restaurant. I tried to choose well, but I know there was lots of salt and more fat than I’m used to in the meal. Compensated well the rest of the day and got in some extra exercise to boot. Gotta keep pushing water today to make sure that salt doesn’t bite me tomorrow! Did 18:6 IF. Happy weekend everyone! WE GOT THIS!
07/12–176 Visited a local farmer’s market yesterday morning and made a haul on fresh fruits and vegetables. Came home and spent the afternoon helping my daughter make baby food from them, and had such a wonderful time. Then made dinner mostly out of what we bought. I had never tried Mediterranean zucchini until last night, and it was scrumptious!
07/13–176.2 I just knew I would break through to 175-something this morning. Had another good day yesterday with food and did some strenuous gardening, too. I’ve been inspired by@ ShielaBoneham to get to work on my backyard. It’s pretty ho-hum right now, but with the new grand baby, I’m going to want her to have a magical place to play in the coming years. So, I’ve made a plan and begun the execution of it. Thanks, Sheila! Maybe the round-goal will come tomorrow. Incentive to do well again today!
07/14–176.6 Well, I did that to myself yesterday. BUT, I stopped it from becoming an all-out self-sabotage day, which is a positive. Not sure if I will make the round goal now of 175.X, but I can try. It’s going to be blistering hot today, so I’ll be riding my exercise bike, I think, instead of walking outside.

Round 119: GWFR: 174.0
7/6: 174.6, Off to a good start. I kind of expected to see a gain today after a big drop yesterday. It's been really hot, so I think I'm living in a state of dehydration right now despite all of the water I'm consuming. Of course, I've also bee hitting it pretty hard the past few days. Yea me!
7/7: 174.0. I guess I hit goal for this round, but I still think it may be an artificial low. I am taking it though. Happy me
7/8: 173.2 a loss going into my mini vacation is a bonus!
7/9: DNW Camping, but had tons of activity. Maybe it will counter balance the copious amount of booze I drink last night... Good on calories, not so good on nutrition.
7/10:DNW Camping, yesterday was a blast, but I’m plum tuckered out. Ray day today. Expect a slight gain after this trip.
7/11: 172.8, yahoo! A loss after my outing, hoped for but unexpected. I was more active than I was glutinous. Yea me!
7/12: 173.0 did a 27 mile bike ride yesterday, but ate dinner late. I’m guessing the food just hasn’t had time to “process”.
7/13: 173.4 Was so hungry I couldn't sleep last night and had a late night snack. Very unusual for me. Such is life.

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.
07/11 - 174.5
07/12 - 174.4
07/12 - 174.7 Up a little - salty popcorn. I've started eating popcorn as a snack a few days a week (1 serving = 120 calories). I use an air popper but I use way too much salt (and on pretty much everything else too). I hardly ever eat processed foods so most comes from what I just put on my food. I read for an adult, you should have no more than 1 tsp a day. I'm going to measure out a tsp each day and only use that. I'm curious to see how much I was actually using and if I can start enjoying my food without it. I think it's one of those things that you can stop your body from wanting so much when you don't eat it. I know that's true with sugar and think it is with salt as well. I'll soon find out!
07/14 - 174.4 I used only a tsp of salt yesterday and, yike, I've been eating much more than I thought. I'm going to keep it up.

Here we go again! And I’m determined to make at least a little progress this time. Jeesh! It’s really hot here with air quality advisory today, but I’m going for at least a short walk. Salmon-egg-guac salad for lunch, lentils & rice for dinner, and I had a low cal breakfast. Today’s my “breakout day”!
7/7 - 181
It’s a beautiful morning here, but already hot and we have a heat and ozone advisory for later, so I’m doing my gardening and walking early. I have some seeds to plant —starts for a new bed I’m planning. I love watching seedlings grow! My day’s menu is planned and lunch made (remains from yesterday). It was so yummy and easy, I thought I’d share In case anyone’s looking for a new summery salad. Recipe: 1 can salmon (I like Wild Planet wild caught pink), 2 hard boiled eggs, guacamole (I use one Wholly Guacamole mini pack), slaw mix (I use mixed broccoli, carrot, cabbage), chopped raw veggies & herbs to taste (bell pepper, celery, green onion or chives, basil, cilantro all work well). Tasty, filling, healthful.

I’m sitting on my patio, smiling at my garden this morning. When we moved into this house, this entire perimeter of the backyard was a narrow band of river rock. I wish I could invite you all over for iced tea! The photo doesn’t do the colors justice in the hot sun, but still. I’ve seen four kinds of butterflies, lots of beautiful bees, lots of birds, including 6 goldfinches, and bunnies and chipmunks this morning.
7/10 - 180.6
Peaches! We got a big bunch of peaches, and they’re perfect! I made a galette with some yesterday — simple to make, delicious, and about half the calories of peach pie. Watched my calories the rest of the day and fit a piece in. Yum!
7/11 - 181
Not entirely unexpected since we had carry-out Thai yesterday. Not as salty as Chinese, but saltier than I usually eat. I stuck with veggie stir fry with chicken, though — no high-cal mussaman curry, which I love! Anyway, tomorrow will be better, I’m sure. Gorgeous day here — planning to catch up on weeding and deadheading before the heat returns next week. And I’m going to check on the 1500 ladybugs I released in my garden yesterday. Take that, aphids! Have a glorious weekend, all!
7/12 - 181
Thai leftovers and some snacking because I dunno why.
7/13 - 181.4
I confess, I went a little nuts over the weekend. All reasonably healthful, but too much of it. I do feel a bit bloated, so some of this is water, but still....Anyway, this week’s temps are supposed to be more reasonable than last week‘s, so I’ll get back to nice, long walks. 👟 Still hopeful to be down a tad by Wed. Happy Monday, all!
7/14 - 181.4
Going up is so much easier than going down! Oh, well. Off for a walk as soon as I finish my coffee. Enjoy your day!

07/06: 212.4 / Off to a rip-roaring start here after the holiday weekend. This will be a tough ten days for me with my birthday plopped right in the middle of it. I will be happy if I can just get my ten day average down .01 #.
07/07: 212.2 / Nutritionally a good day yesterday except for the high salt content.
07/08: 213 / I little birthday Pizza and Pie with Son & his family last night. This is going to be a tough round for me!
07/09: 211.4 / We travel to DW’s sister and her husband’s place later today for a long weekend. I may not enter any weights until Monday due to complications of inconsistent schedule and uncalibrated scale. I am going to try to walk a lot and drink a lot of water. That may offset the way our hosts will surely spoil us with food. I think a German Chocolate birthday cake is being prepared. 😊
