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.

8/25 116.5 I got sidetracked reading this morning. My husband was in a fender bender yesterday morning and as a result, I cancelled my PT so I stopped reading here and just did my home exercises. DH and car are not severely damaged. I am noticing SUCH a difference from the therapy exercises that I WANT to go back to the gym! WOW! You have NO IDEA how huge that is for me! The cat does NOT like me using HIS floor to do home exercises!

8/27 LOL Just noticed the typo in the post I made this morning. Of course my buds are “seeing” it makes SEWING so much easier!! Ate lunch at the New Mexican restaurant yesterday. I ate soooo many carbs! But it was SOOOO GOOD! Totally worth it, I have half leftover for lunch at “sew day.” I had an amazing day with my gal pals!6 -

Round #123 < 3.4lbs
When you get this uncomfortable in your skin AND your clothes, you know you need a little extra accountability, and this forum is helping, tremendously!
Been making myself go for walks (or do workout videos) when my hurtin' body would rather say "No." Because my BMR is so low, I've been really cognizant of what is going in my mouth (and I'm not putting something in there-out of sheer boredom!) I've decided that I really don't enjoy exercising all that much! But, I've seen so much improvement in how my clothes fit over the past 15 days, that I'm NOT giving up now! Super excited to be getting back into my "real" wardrobe, after an umpteen year hiatus...

08/25 …..210.5 ….. 1 ½ slices of pizza last night during movie night with my son and THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD!!!! I actually started to gag when eating the 2nd slice and had to spit it into my napkin. Over a pound gained overnight! Very disappointed that I will spend this round just to get back down to my inflated, overweight, obese number that I started with. I will try to fit in extra movement today, extra water, and stick to my guns!
08/26 …..210.2 ….. Working my way back down?

Still a bit unwell, so no walking yet. I'm finding it easier not to snack in the evenings, which makes staying under my limit much easier.

Wanting to eat my feelings today. Instead I watched bad tv and sat with them. Hopefully I will feel a bit less overwhelmed tomorrow.

Finally got out of the house today, I haven't been out since Wednesday last week. Still really stressed.

A big bounce today. Our tap water is currently brown, so takeaway for dinner. Still trying for higher protein choices, and only had half the mashed potato.

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 – to lose a pound. Stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keep the 10 days binge free again, it makes such a difference!

Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 133 – 8.64 miles walked yesterday, chocolate got the better of me last night (sigh!). DGS back in theatre for liver biopsy today, bloodwork figures indicate possible rejection, biopsy will confirm/deny, if it is rejecting they can prescribe additional drugs to reverse, keeping fingers and everything else crossed.
08/26 132.4 – Walking non existent! Storm Francis forced me back home, I don't like walking in the rain and with blustery gusting wind it was even worse, that together with lunch out with my sisters meant that I was 386 calories, 23g carbs & 42g fat over. DGS is well in himself, awaiting liver biopsy results, hopefully today.
08/27 131.8 - 10.2 miles walked yesterday, 48 calories in credit, but 37g carbs & 10g fat over. But more importantly, DGS liver biopsy results showed that there is no signs of rejection – hurray !!
08/28. 132.2 - 4.29 miles walked yesterday, 142 calories in credit, 11g carbs over. Best news - DGS discharged from hospital yesterday 👏👏👏👏👏. Still long way to go, weekly hospital appts etc, but such a big step 😁.

Want to thank you all for your prayers, thoughts, good wishes and concerns for my DGS, he is 7 months old this week and when he was placed on the transplant list on the day he turned 6 months I really couldn't envisage what was going to happen. We have been truly blessed with a miracle over the last 4 weeks, and the old adage that you think it could never happen to your own family has never been truer. The support I have received from my friends on this thread has been absolutely amazing, I am and will forever be so grateful. In my estimation this thread is right up there. @GrandmaJackie you should take credit for that too as well as all the inspiration and support that members get in their weight loss/maintenance journey - thank you xx😘13

08/25 - 310.3 - One of the pleasant things about the new job is walking almost twice as much. My steps almost doubled for the week (per my Fitbit notification). Down 3.6 for the week and 8 lbs. over 2 weeks. One of those fun things that happen when you drop lots of weight... a adjustable web belt that barely fit now has to be cut since there is an excess. Maybe it's body dysmorphia, but while this is happening, I don't see it. But the fit of my clothes and fitness ability to do simple tasks that have been a struggle, those are the things that are a hammer hitting me over the head, saying *yeah, you're getting smaller*.
08/26 - 309.7 - Mondays are worst for weigh-ins. By Wednesday, I'm usually heading in a good direction. My best is Saturday before I start eating. By then, I've had 3 42-hour fasts leading into eating at noon on Sat.
08/27 - 306.9 - Nice drop. After missing last round's goal, I went conservative... and already made it. This also puts me at the 95+ lbs. mark. So close. So tantalizing. And a broke scale. One of the footies just broke and I don't think it can be fixed. Aargh! New scale time. Down 4.3 for the week and 9.3 over two weeks.
08/28 - 307.2 - Standard small uptick on a weekday eat. Still on target for a nice drop for tomorrow.

08/25 - 231.8 - Though I walked 3.36 miles yesterday morning my Apple watch did NOT consider it exercise LOL Stopping to talk to neighbors, dog potty, dropping off book at library, light at intersection and not using pause on the watch when stopping … I guess it thinks I strolled too much. Overall I did get 12300 steps total yesterday. Today I must walk more purposefully!
08/26 - 231.2 - 3 mile walk but ran into friends again … some decided to walk with me. A couple of glasses of wine with dinner. Broke my dry spell this month.
08/27 - 231.2 - Walked 3 miles, biked, gardened/digging, hand weights … still seem to be stuck around 231. Hoping to drop into the 20s soon!

08/25 - 144.5
08/26 - 145 - Calories have been good, so I'm hoping this is just some water retention.
08/27 - 144.5 - OK, I'm trending lower this week.
08/28 - 145.5 - Sigh. I've tracked my food all week and stayed within weight loss calories. I did start a cardio routine this week, so I'm hoping this is some DOMS. Also, I've been eating watermelon which, although low in calories, is high in sugar and carbs. I have a patio birthday party for my daughter on Sunday and my husband is making meatball subs for supper tonight, so I'm going to have to really watch what I eat the rest of the weekend along with drinking ALL the water.

8/25 - 169.7 Trying not to get too excited. Each oz in a lb. seems to have a mind of its own lately. Each taking turns hopping up and down like evil bouncy balls. (After I wrote this I got a mental image of what 16 of those balls released all at once might look like--cracked me up! I'm just weird like that.)
8/26 - 168.7 Keeping this loss to the end of this round will be my new R124 goal. Thinking it will still be a challenge.
8/27 - 169.3 Not sweating the small bounces. Determined to keep the 7 out of the second position. So, 30 minutes after I posted this, my daughter delivers a Starbucks Bacon Gouda and Vente Pumpkin Spice Coffee. Bless.Her.Heart. Going to enjoy every sip/bite. Still determined ... no 7 in the second position! I let you know how I compensate for this once I figure it out. lol
8/28 - 169.1 Earned 790 calories by walking that I did not eat back. Walked wildly (Side steps and in place) during a virtual team meeting instead of sitting all day which added nearly 2,500 of 14,000 steps. I may have started a new virtual meeting habit!

A friend brought a gorgeous big vine-ripened cantaloup yesterday — mmmmm. Also tomatoes and peppers. I see a beautiful salad in my future! 🥗 We’re under a heat advisory today and it’s already hot, so I’m not walking unless it cools down this evening, but I can garden in spurts and run in to cool off. I’m also refinishing some nightstands & end tables & trying to decide on a color for our bedroom, which I want to repaint — plenty to do! Have a great week, all!

I don’t know why I had to have ice cream last night. Maybe the hot hot day, but that’s just a flimsy excuse. Still, I hit my calorie goal, if barely. No walk — a friend came over and we sat out in the garden to catch up and enjoy the beautiful evening. Not bad, all in all.
8/27 - 182.8 😐 - 1920 😡 - snacks 🍿🍨😡
Food, glorious food, and way too much of it. The ice cream was definitely emotional, and of course I know that giving in only makes me feel worse. What was so depressing, you might wonder? I’m trying to choose a paint color for our bedroom. Gaaaa! I want something cheery to wake me happy in the morning. Yellow or green, but holy cow, it’s hard to find the right one! So I have 5 different colors painted in patches on all four walls, and still haven’t decided! So, ice cream. Ha! Compared to events in other parts of the country, my petty concerns are nothing, I know. I hope everyone here is safe.

Better yesterday, food wise. I found my yellow and the painters come Monday. Yay! I can’t wait to get rid of the dark blue-gray we inherited. It may have looked better when new, but I find it depressing). Now I’m on the prowl for some new artwork to brighten it up, and a small pedestal table to paint to match the nightstand I painted a soft white. Trying to wake up cheerful! That helps me not want to gobble everything in sight. (See, this is on topic!)

08/28 - 152.3 - Whoosh! That was entirely unexpected, especially since I went back for seconds on the homemade chicken tikka marsala at dinner. First round was with some basmati rice, second was toned down with just the chicken in sauce/gravy. But, as usual with Indian food, I figured I'd gain. Guess it wasn't as calorie-laden as I thought(I looked up various recipes for it online and averaged them for dinner)? My estimated calories were barely under goal and I didn't end up getting the walk in I wanted due to work being hectic so I'm really surprised. Just barely hit my goal of 4 water bottles (16.4oz steel bottle - Save the Earth!) but I need to find a way to sneak in an extra 10oz to hit my rounded half-body weight in oz goal. Just happy I was able to get the 4 bottles in finally [insert happy dance]! Let's see if I can get through the weekend and maintain. Back on my IF attempt (its so hard to do on weekends and today is part of my weekend).

Previous Day's Comments08/25 - Quite alright. Starting off with a sodium bump. BF made dinner last night and apparently the flow restriction top of the worcestershire sauce came off while he was adding it, only to dump a bit too much in there and could taste the extra saltiness of it. Focusing on water today, again, and finding activity to get moving. Didn't sleep well at all, though my fitbit says I had the best sleep in a long while. Obviously false as it read I was in "REM" but I definitely looked at the time and was awake during that period. Hoping I can wake up fully and enough to not be lazy and dragging all day.
08/26 - Little tick down. Dinner was a bit heavy, taco bell recreations. Surprised I dropped any at all. Water wasn't too great and no activity. Work got really crazy and I have a feeling work is going to get crazy again today but I have a workout date with Fam this morning to offset the madness.
08/27 - Yay, another drop and now at goal weight for the round -- challenge is to keep it at or under this. Today is my Friday since I don't work Fridays and therefore a nice long weekend to screw things up if I'm not careful/diligent. I ALMOST reached my goal for water but also gave myself a bit of a stomach ache with all the water I was drinking after a very filling dinner. Plus, I didn't want to have to wake up and use the bathroom. I have issues with insomnia enough without bodily functions adding to it. Goal is to get a walk in today.

I'm in for my 1st round!
Female, Age 50, 5'4"
Starting Weight = 181.4
Ultimate Goal Weight = 134
Round 124 Goal = Under 176
Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 = 178.0 (down 2.4 from yesterday) Nice "loss" from yesterday but really that was an inflated number from the weekend overeating. Still up .3 from Friday's weight. But happy it is heading in the right direction!
08/26 = 177.1 (down .9 from yesterday) Went on a run yesterday with my husband and ate well & within my calorie range all day but eventually went over as we had wine and & a snack later in the evening. Expect the number to bump up tomorrow, as it usually take 2 days for the scale to reflect that for me.
08/27 = 177.9 (up .8 from yesterday), there's the slight uptick I was expecting from Tuesday night's over indulgences. Yesterday was an okay day calorie wise but was in the higher part of my allowed calorie range. Wanted to go for a run as it was great weather and supposed to storm all day today but husband's knee can't do two runs in a row, so we are hoping the weather cooperates today.
08/28 = 177.2 (down .7 from yesterday) Last Friday when I weighed in, I was 177.7 so only down a half pound these last 7 days but most of this week was spent getting the scale to come down after a weekend filled with high caloric takeaways. But I've been consistently making better choices since Monday so feel like I'm in a better place as this new weekend starts. Exercise wise, the weather didn't cooperate for running yesterday but am planning to get a run in on my lunch hour today and looking forward to a chicken Caesar salad for dinner. Other positives, doing great with IF 16/8 & Alcohol Free for the most part, allowing adult beverages only 1 night per week.

JGM10D Round 124[/b]🌾🎍🌵🌴🌳💕💖💕🌳🌴🌵🎍🌾
🏖🎡💕💖💕 AUGUST 💕💖💕🎡⛱
🌾🎍🌵🌴🌳💕💖💕🌳🌴🌵🎍🌾
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.
August focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:
2020 Focus:Never give up! Never give in!- 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
Recent Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 124
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Working on it. Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
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.

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.

@musicsax How wonderful! I'm so glad all is going well for your family during this time It eases my heart to know he is doing well and has "broken out" of the hospital. 3

@Tesha231 I need to find a way to do that virtual meeting step workout! It sounds amazing! Unfortunately, most of my meetings require sharing screens and I'm working out of my living room -- not a single place to put a computer where I can see the screen while standing unless I'm bent over. Guess I'll be using my weekend to brainstorm.
Thank you for sharing, this is brilliant!4 -

08/25 -192.3 First time I've weighed myself in a while. I've been having a really hard time getting back on it. I got really sick at the beginning of the year and lost 20lbs within a month. I was on steroids and just got off them a month ago! My appetite is finally getting back to normal and I feel strong enough to lose again!:D Monday CI 1518 CO 2828
08/26 -188.2 Woohoo! And there's the water. Might gain a little tomorrow as I didn't eat much yesterday. Tuesday CI 261 (I know, I had a very stressful day) CO 2537
08/27 -188.9 That's what I thought lol. Stayed well within my calories yesterday and exercised so I'm not worried. Wednesday CI 1274 CO 3002
08/28 - 188.5 Going camping for the night on Saturday so I'm going to be really good before and after that. My Fitbit always trips out when we go offroading though so stats aren't going to be correct. There will be a lot of beer and sausages going on lol. Thursday CI 1235 CO 2782

Back in for 2nd round since coming back. Goals are to get under 165.0 and be there for at least 5 out of the 10 weigh ins. Also drink more water and stay away from fast food. We will see how it goes. Ended last round at 169.0
08/25 - 168.3 down a little bit from yesterday, so I will take it. Brought my lunch and breakfast to work this morning, so no excuses to grab lunch out today. Did great until I got home last night and we decided to make steak fajitas for dinner. Probably had a little more guacamole and chips then I should have, but I will keep working at it.
08/26 - 167.4 At least it is continuing to go down. Really wanted to be lower this morning, but I guess I will be happy with where I am. Brought my lunch and breakfast to work again this morning, so no excuses to eat out. Dinners still aren't great, but I am really looking to get under 165 at this point. I can't believe I gained 30 pounds in 7 months. It will probably take me 18 months to lose it, lol.
08/27 - 166.4 Met all my goals yesterday and even turned down McDonald's for dinner. The hubby and I went four wheeling in the mountains with our new Jeep and then decided to pick dinner up. Guess where the kids wanted to eat? Everybody ordered food, but I decided to go home and eat left overs from the night before. I did eat a couple of fries off the kids plates, but way better than it could have been. Getting closer to my goal, so we will see how the rest of the week plays out. All 3 meals are planned for today already so we should be good on that front.
08/28 - 166.4 Fridays use to be my official weigh-in day, but I will start that next week. Stuck to my plan yesterday, probably had a little to much soy sauce on my rice for dinner, but only had a small portion and didn't go back for seconds even though I could have. First full week back on track and I am ok with where I am at this point. Last time I was super strict and over did it. This time if it takes me a little longer I am ok with that. I want to be able to sustain instead of feeling restricted.
