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.

8/15 116.0 Oh well, this too may pass. Still well below ANY previously set goal. Out to dinner with friends last night. Absolutely no way to track Italian Chopped Salad in a darkened dining room with everything in 1/4” squares. It was expensive and really not great. Oh well live and learn. I should have gotten my standard burger/no bun.
8/16 117.0 The little bit of salad I brought home tasted better after sitting in the refrigerator over night. I added a little blue cheese and pepperoni to it to bring the protein up, still really short of my changed macro! Sat out on the driveway social distancing with 2 neighbors. It was 109 degrees, I drank 2 quarts of ice water in those 2 hours. Total of 5 or 6 all day. Supposed to be 115-116 every day this week. Life in the desert! 😁
8/17 116.0 I’m having trouble getting as much protein as I want. I just can’t eat that much. Had some celery with Laughing Cow Asiago because I needed protein and crunch! Still below protein goal.
8/18 116.0 Someone said BBQ and that sounds delicious for dinner! I know just the place! We’ll see.
8/19 116.0
8/20 116.0 I know the scale is working - my husband uses it, too! Perhaps this is my current set point. Read from top of 14.
8/21 116.0 I had a really bad night and have an art quilt technique class all day today. My belly is rumbling.
8/22 116.5 It was great to get together yesterday and a great refresher of techniques I knew but haven’t used in some time. I didn’t drink as much water as I should have.3 -

08/17 - 145.5 - Not a big surprise after my weekend.
08/18 - 146 - The weekend is still creeping up on me.
08/19 - 145.5 - That's better.
08/20 - 146 - At this point I'm not sure if it's my eating this week or my stress levels. I have to start tracking my food better on a daily basis.
08/21 - 145 - I tracked my calories very closely yesterday and managed to save enough for a glass of wine in the evening. For the first time since late May, we don't have a socially distant patio "happy hour" planned this weekend with family so I'm hoping I can maintain this weight for Monday.
08/22 - 145 - Still tracking.

Ultimate Goal: 185 lbs., but realistically 15-18% bodyfat.

Medium range goal - I turn 60 in early October, so the goal is to be under 300. It would mean I've lost over 100 lbs. in just under a year AND first time under 300 since my late 40's.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/15 - 312.4 - My biggest drop is always from Thursday (my last meal @ 6PM) thru Saturday @ noon, when I have my next meal (yes, 42 hour fast). I am surprised how much I've dropped and it looks like I'll make my medium-range goal of being under 300 by early October. The difference is that I didn't put on as much weight after eating on Thursday. Of course, the lack of stress from job searching (I start on Monday) probably adds to lessening cortisol, too.
08/16 - 314.6 - Not bad. I had a really good food day yesterday, even if my first meal gave me a bloated feeling. Instead of using keto bread for my morning avocado base, I made a quickie keto bun. It toasted SO much better.
08/17 - 316.6 - And after 2 days of eating, not too bad of an uptick. And down 3.7 over last week. I start a new job today, so... nervous. The cortisol could also have something to do with the uptick.
08/18 - 313.9 - First day of the new job in the books. Although I don't relish a drive into Philly, after 2 weeks of training I only have to go in 1 day/week and everything else I can do from home. Really nice weight drop from yesterday and the new job means I must walk more than usual, which almost doubled my normal amount. 4.8 lb. loss from last week. I haven't decided if I want to do a 5:2 or OMAD once I get under 300 (to slow my weight loss). Any advice would be appreciated!
08/19 - 312.8- AFTER a day of eating, my weight goes down... what gives? One really great thing about the new job is that I'm getting in an extra 2k of steps each day. Yesterday, I was down 4.8 from the previous week. Today, that zooms to 6.9 lbs. So, I ordered some pants for work that were 4 inches smaller than those I wore last year. And I have to return them. They were already a bit loose and at the rate I'm losing, it's just not worth it. So, I ordered replacements another 2 inches smaller (52). They might be a bit tight to start, but they'll be hinging off me by the holiday season.
08/20 - 311.2 - For the first time during a fast day, I cheated. I was so hungry last night I broke down and made some air-popped popcorn for a small snack. Nevertheless, nice drop. I'm still trying to get back into the swing of things by working again.
08/21 - 311.2 - No change... after a day of eating. But down 4.3 lbs. over last week and 8.5 from 2 weeks ago.
08/22 - 309.7 - made it under 310, but didn't get all the way down to my target. Since the weekends are eating days, it's VERY unlikely I'll make my goal. That said, I'm emptying out my closet from all the clothing that's WAY too big, since I will NEVER be this big again. Keeping one pair of pants for my final picture and donating the rest.

18/8 13st 5lb (187lb) -1/4lb I've not started fantastically with an egg and bacon sandwich. (I had bacon that needed eating and it would be criminal to through it away.) I guess today will be my cheat day. 🤣🤣
19/8 13st 5.25lb (187.25lb) +1/4lb. I am not thrilled with today's weigh in. Yesterday was a bit of a wash out. Oh well,🤷🏻♀️ Today seems to be going well so onwards and upwards.

08/19 147.2 I haven't been here since round 106! Back in March. In related news, I went into strict quarantine in March (and still haven't left the house more than 3 times!) and gained TWENTY POUNDS. In 5 months! I've attached two pictures that tell the story: you can see that I had a nice downward trend line until March, and then whoosh! Up it went!
As you can see, I have been stress-eating my way through the pandemic and my hard-earned maintenance weight of 127 lbs became less and less important to me as time went on.
Well, enough time has gone on, and I've decided to prioritize myself again. Accountability in this wonderful group, daily weighing, and the most road-tested ingredient of my previous success: PATIENCE . I am loving seeing all of the encouraging posts (this is such a positive corner of the internet!), and I'm looking forward to rooting for all of your success!
08/20 145.2 I know better than to get too excited about being down 2 lbs overnight. But it's still encouraging to see the number going down!
08/21 145.2 I'm expecting it to bounce up again tomorrow. Need to stick to the 8 p.m. cutoff.
08/22 144.6 Okay, I am happily surprised by this!

8/15: 229.2 (+0.8)/19.5 (+0.1). My other brother-in-law and his wife came over last night. I had 0 drinks, and no dessert, but my meal was probably a bit "heavy" for what I'm currently used to. I don't think I'm having any other visitors this weekend, so I'm hoping this weekend will be a good one for weight loss/fitness. It's REALLY hot, though. I'm a little worried that California's rolling blackouts might disrupt the flow of my day.
8/16: 228.2 (-1.0)/19.4 (-0.1). It's REALLY hot right now. I didn't do anything yesterday, but I stayed within plan. I keep waking up early, and I'm having trouble getting back to sleep. I think it has something to do with my wife liking the temperature higher than I do. I'm super-sensitive in my old age; I really like the temperature to be no higher than 76-78 degrees, where my wife would prefer things in the mid-eighties.
8/17: 228.0 (-0.2)/19.4 (0.0). I snacked a bit in the evening, but stayed pretty well within my plan. For the first time in a LONG time, I got to Monday with NO WEEKEND BUMP! I'm really looking forward to the temperature going down. My gym equipment is outside, and it's just MISERABLE out there.
8/18: 228.0 (0.0)/19.4 (0.0). Yesterday wasn't great or horrible. I'm heading into the office today for my one time per week (I telecommute for the most part since COVID-19). I ate fine, but I am admittedly weighing myself a couple of hours earlier than I usually do during the weekend. I'm feeling a little bit "blah," but I'm going to keep showing my @$$ up here anyway. I hope you all have a great day.
8/19: 228.0 (0.0)/19.4 (0.0). I had a really great salad last night for dinner, but I probably went a bit over regarding my calories. That being said, I will ALWAYS give myself permission to have a really great salad; the long-term health benefits will always outweigh a calorie count on any given day. My father-in-law is over right now picking figs off my tree (I HATE them), and he brought over some tamales. First, I'm not sure yet if my in-laws made them. If they did, they are EXQUISITE, and I would have one for lunch, and one for dinner. If they are from somewhere else AND not "worth it," they will find the trash can. If they're good, I'll have some either way, but I will have my moderation plan firmly in place. I'm going to try again today to exercise. I'm shooting for right after work (which means 5pm, since I'm working from home today).
8/20: 226.8 (-1.2)/19.3 (-0.1). I was talking with some coworkers yesterday, after they informed me that there were some treats to share in the office. I discussed with them how easy it is for me right now to stay disciplined because, well, it just IS. When I say this, I mean that, generally, no matter what is offered to me, I will either politely decline it, or I will find a way to portion control the situation so that any potential damage is mitigated. Yesterday was a perfect example. The tamales my father-in-law brought were FANTASTIC; he brought four. My initial plan was one tamale for lunch, and one for dinner. After eating one, though, I felt a bit "heavy," and decided that I would instead have one per day (I will eat the other with avocado today for brunch). My wife also surprised me yesterday with a delicious banana daquiri. I did not say no, but I did have one glass (maybe six ounces), and I politely declined "seconds" (which I normally would not have). I treated the daquiri like it was a dessert, and had nothing else but water the rest of the night. I'm not feeling cocky, but I am feeling confident: I know I'm on the right track, and I'm really trying to commit 100% to making sure that I NEVER give up on the idea of being healthy and feeling better about myself. Part of that means continuing to post here with my friends... forever.
8/21: 226.6 (-0.2)/19.2 (-0.1). My wife cut up a honeydew melon yesterday. I probably had a bit too much, but I kind of agree with her; having some fruit likely isn't all that bad for me. I had a tamale and some avocado for lunch, and learned (to my horror) that there were actually FIVE tamales! I informed my wife that I will not be partaking in tamale number three. I got a new piece of home gym equipment yesterday: a pull-up bar that fits in the doorway. At this point I can do one pull-up with a wide grip, and maybe two with an inner grip. While I'm happy that I can do at least one pull-up, this is still an eye-opener. The good news is that pull-ups should get easier as I continue to lose weight, and as I get back into lifting weights. I'm going to commit to doing as many pull-ups as I can at least every other day. Yesterday: two wide grip, and four narrow grip. It's my mom's 80th birthday tomorrow, so food is going to be bad at least on that day. But it's my mom's birthday. I'm going to enjoy one "bad" meal, and a TINY piece of cake. My sister-in-law may be coming over today; I shouldn't have any problems with food during her visit.
8/22: 224.6 (-2.0)/19.0 (-0.2). Unexpected WHOOSH!!!! And it's especially nice that it happened today, because tonight is Mom's birthday (I'll tell her @quiltingjaine ). I'm going to do some strength training this morning. I'm also going to try to take it a little easy food-wise before dinner tonight.

Previous days08/15 DNW, came back from vacation today.
08/16 116.4 I’ll take it considering before vacation I was holding water from TOM and weighing in at 116.8. Food during vacation was pretty solid and I wasn’t too indulgent, but I also didn’t say no to anything. We ate out twice by the end of it, which wasn’t too bad. I feel good and got in a spin bike workout for the day! Have a good Sunday everyone!
08/17 116.4 It’s been a whirlwind of a day playing catch up at work after being gone for a week! Food was solid yesterday and today has been on point as well. We did a good soccer workout this morning and planning to go for a walk tomorrow morning! My brain is a little mushy at this point in the day and all I can think to say is that it’s CSA day today and I’m excited for that in a couple hours! Have a good night everyone!
08/18 116.2 We went for a really good 6ish mile walk this morning. I’m on my own tomorrow for my higher intensity workout, so I’m planning a yard workout incorporating jump rope, burpees, some soccer drills, body weight exercises like push-ups and lunges, mountain climbers and all sorts of fun stuff.
The CSA pick up was full of greens last night along with a zucchini, a pepper, heirloom cherry tomatoes, and purple radishes. Then for fruit we got a dozen donut peaches, two watermelon, a cantaloupe, and honeydew. I felt like I hit the jackpot for fruit!
Dinner was a little salty last night because I made a Thai style greens recipe which had a bunch of stems chopped up small from swiss chard, spigariello, Ethiopian kale, and one other green’s stems I think. Then, I added shredded collard greens. The sauce used coconut oil, coconut milk, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, chilies, lime juice and I added some tamari because I didn’t want to use as much fish sauce as the recipe called for. I thought it came out pretty good, my husband tolerated it lol (he doesn’t care for cooked greens) so he ate 25% of it and I ate the other 75% of it. For protein I scrambled some hamburger and we topped it with siracha. I think we’re having roasted chicken for dinner tonight with potatoes and beets!
08/19 115.2 Started my day with a HIIT/soccer style workout and torched at least 400ish calories. Last night’s dinner was grilled chicken leg quarters with roasted beets and sweet potatoes. Yumm! Today’s breakfast will be a large amount of honeydew melon, cantaloupe, maybe a peach, and the last granola bar (calorie dense bar I made for hiking coming in at 400 kcals) that I made for our trip last week. My snack will be oatmeal with peaches and dinner will be mushroom and spinach ravioli with salad and heirloom cherry tomatoes.
Enjoy your day!
08/20 115.6 Went for a 6ish mile walk this morning. Realized that my hips are really tight from my workout yesterday and need to stretch later today. We ended up getting Chipotle takeout for dinner last night but I was a lot more conscious of what I ordered last night and didn’t completely decimate myself with sodium. I also trimmed off about 200 calories by planning it out with their nutrition calculator. I clocked in at like 700ish calories instead of the 900-1,000 calorie bowl I got last time. So I consider that a bit of a win for me. I’m not sure what is on the agenda tonight for dinner but I’m looking forward to having yogurt, fruit, and granola for breakfast! It’s so crazy that after a week or so of not having yogurt, I was actually craving it. Luckily we got a food order this morning, so I have some waiting for me in the fridge now 😊.
08/21 115.4 We did a nice soccer workout this morning. Food was solid yesterday. It will be my typical yogurt and granola for breakfast and I’m thinking maybe tacos for dinner or a meat sauce with ravioli for dinner tonight. I’m not too sure about it all. Have a good day and happy Friday!
08/22 115.4 My husband and I went for a quick walk this morning (almost a mile and a half), then when we got home I jumped on the spin bike for a half hour class via Youtube. I continued riding for another 20 minutes afterwards at a slower pace while watching a Netflix show.
I finally got my “proof of Canadian citizenship application” paperwork completed and got that in the mail. It’s taken months to gather all the documents and find the time to fill everything out/make sure I wasn’t forgetting anything. So, that feels great to have it done! My dad is a Canadian citizen and hopefully, I’m able to officially get mine. (He moved down here from New Brunswick in the 60’s.) I’m submitting the application to give us another option if any sort of opportunities pop up. The rest of today will be a lazy one. Later tonight we’re getting Thai takeout with my inlaws and playing a few games before my mother in law goes in for surgery this coming Tuesday. For Thai food, I plan on getting a ginger chicken dish with lots of veggies and a little bit of rice. Have a good rest of the day!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 123 (round 55 for me ) I'm in for another round (as always!) – I need to just keep going! As always, thank you @GrandmaJackie such a champion particularly in these unprecedented & unsettled 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 for this round – Bathroom being refurbished and is almost finished before they move on to the downstairs cloakroom. Miles are more of a challenge to achieve whilst the workmen are here, but I'm trying to get an hour or so in before they arrive and then some in the evening around commitments with MIL care. Stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep the 10 days binge free again!End of round 69 134.2 lbsKeep calm – we're all in this together!

08/15 131.8 wow !! Got on the scales 3 times to check, a new low this year. 5.66 miles walked yesterday, 100 calories in credit, all macros in green.
08/16 131.8 – happy this stuck. 4.55 miles walked yesterday, took 2 year old DGS out for the day, hence reduced mileage. 57 calories & 4g carbs over.
08/17 132.2 – happy with that considering walking mileage is really down with one thing and another. Walked only 2.31 miles yesterday; in fact didn't actually get out to walk, that was cleaning and pottering in the house and garden !! 249 calories in credit, 13g carbs over.
DGS still doing well, on 4 hourly obs now instead of hourly, pain relief IV & catheter removed – all looking positive.
08/18 132.2 - 7.14 miles walked yesterday, 642 calories in credit, all other macros in green.
08/19 131.8 - 7.08 miles walked yesterday, 352 calories in credit, 29g carbs over.
08/20 131.8 – no walking yesterday, sat at MIL whilst boiler replaced & then continual rain throughout the day , hence 171 calories, 79g carbs & 1g fat over . Lucky to retain number !
08/21 131.2 – wow ! Another new low not just for this year but since June last year!! 12.14 miles walked yesterday, 318 calories in credit, 25g fat over.

Round 123
Month/Day: Weight / Comment
08/15: 207.4
08/16: 207.8 / The last couple days are pop-ups from the last day of last round. I can’t imagine why. :-p What is so bad about two days in a row with big messy cheese burgers for lunch. Friday’s was at a high-end gourmet restaurant for a work meeting. Saturday’s was at a local yocal dive after a morning of fishing with a friend. Both were delicious. Then last night, dinner out with some friends. I guess I should be happy I am only this heavy.
Glad to be back at it again this round.
08/17: 207.2 / I would call this a victory. For the weekend, not bad.
08/18: 207.8 / Anniversary today! 41 years with DW! For some of you, yes that means I am old enough to be your father. But, not too old to keep learning. Dinner out today will probably make some waves tomorrow on the ten-day chart.
BTW, with four days in a row with an identical third digit (7) I feel out of place. I jump around so much this never happens. Strangely, my last two ten-day averages have that same digit.
08/19: 206.6 / Ok, I like this “wave.” We went out for lunch yesterday instead of out for the evening meal. Made a good choice or two. Had a short bike ride to pick up our CSA (we have one too @kblanc14 !) and a walk around the block at dusk.
08/20: 205.4 / It’s low tide. High tide is coming, but maybe not as high. I am trying to get low tide lower and high tide lower.
08/21: 207.8 / H2O
08/22: 207.8 / luck 7

I'm in for round #123!
Round #122 < 3.8lbs
SW: 139lbs GW: 115lbs
I've done this before, successfully; I know that it can be done. My challenge is ignoring a hurting body, and/or not getting up and moving-because *that* is more comfortable. I want ME back. Oh, and I also signed up for a virtual 5k today (to be completed in Sept) and I'm doing a *live* 5k in Dec. If I don't want to be thoroughly embarrassed, guess I'd better move my bum!

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 surgery then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurt! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle.
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.
