I've been losing and gaining the same 1kg for the last 2 months. I am now determined to stay in 64kgs and not head back up to 66kg.6 -
JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 133 (round 66 for me ) I'm in for another round – I need this to lose a few pounds before Christmas! I've been going a bit haywire!!!! Thank you GrandmaJackie a brilliant champion in these unprecedented & unsettled times, for continuing to set 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 !
Challenge for this round (again) will be to get back into and stay in133s. Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference!End of round 69 134.2 lbs

The 'drops' will be progressively difficult as December moves along. I'm OK with that. In fact, I will probably gain a few lbs. I don't deny myself the many food and beverage celebrations that come with the holiday season but the log will be for honesty sakes.

@MTW70 Oh no! Hope you feel 100% very soon!
@deepwoodslady Your entry today made me giggle! What, you didn't want to dance for the workmen? They probably would have enjoyed it!
@HoopsGuy72 Look at you busting through that plateau! Great job!
@TerriRichardson112 Can I just say that I want to be you when I grow up! LOL You are doing such a great job maintaining at just below 150 which is exactly where I felt my very best. I just couldn't maintain it, so I'm striving to get back down there, or at least close. Your ability to maintain gives me hope. :-)

12/03 179.0 Baby, it’s COLD outside! So all my exercise was done inside yesterday. I’ve done 18:6 IF the past two days so I think that is helping me.
12/04 178.0 Had a really good food day yesterday and did 19:5 IF.
12/05 176.8 This feels great! If I know my body though, it’ll blip back up tomorrow. But I’m enjoying it today! Did 16:8 yesterday with the IF. Hopefully the weather will clear a bit today, and I can get in an outdoor walk. Got the Christmas tree up and will decorate it today if all goes as planned. Soon, I’ll be traveling to NC to be with my Mom. Dad says there’s a plan to bring her home from the hospital, but it’s complicated and he’s so exhausted he can’t articulate it well. Will find out more this evening. I don’t think there’s any hope that she pulls out of this though. Just a matter of time.
12/06 177.2 I figured this was coming after yesterday’s big drop, but I’m ok with it. It’s still trending down really well of late. I brought my scales to my parents’ house because I will have to really keep a close eye on things while I’m here or I will undo all my hard work.
12/07 177.6 Had a good food day yesterday and got in lots of exercise, so I’m not sure why this continues to go back up. Will have to see what I can do about this today. I can’t fast very well here at my parents’ house though. They just wouldn’t understand it. So that will work against me.
12/08 176.8 Here we go! I did get in a 17:7 IF yesterday after all. Not so hard when everyone sleeps late (but me of course). Then it was so frantic around here after they got up, I barely had time to think about eating. So many hospice deliveries of equipment and such. It was a blur.

12/03 Did 2 miles of Leslie Sansone video and really enjoyed it. She really works you out, full-body! I’m still a little uncoordinated for some of the moves she adds in, but it’s fun and hopefully I’ll get less clutsy as I do more.
12/04 Rode 35 minutes and 8.52 miles on my exercise bike. No walking other than 11K+ steps, but I’m only counting real “walking outside or in an exercise walk” miles.
12/05 Rode 30 minutes for 7.58 miles. No walks, but 13k steps getting things done around the house trying to get ready for Christmas and cook some meals to put in my parents’ freezer for whatever the future holds. Realized this morning that I had confused some bike and walking miles when working on the totals, so I’ve gone back to correct the totals in this post.
12/06 Rode my Dad’s ancient elliptical bike last night. It’s harder than mine, but it’s better than nothing. Cranked out a tough 4 miles on this total body machine and I’m feeling it in my arms a bit this morning. Hope to get in a long walk today before they bring Mom home.
12/07 Got in a 3.16 mile walk before EMS brought Mom home. I had planned for 4 miles, but Dad called right in the middle of it and I had to make a beeline back to their house by a shorter route. But I had almost 18K steps with everything that was going on, so at least I stayed active!
12/08 Carved out enough time before bed to get in 5 miles on the ancient elliptical bike thingy. Felt great! My brother promises he’ll come relieve me for an hour or so to let me get in a good walk today. We shall see! Making sure I get in some exercise though sure is helping me cope with Mom’s condition. So happy to be working toward an exercise goal in the midst of all this.
Total toward 100 mile goal walked by 12/31 (since 11/14)= 48.14 WALK
Total Bike Miles toward Goal: 48.93 BIKE
Kick 2020 to the Curb Goal: 3-30 min exercise bike workouts per week= 105 miles by Jan. 1 in addition to the walking goal I'm already working on. May do another 5K walk on or around Jan. 1, too, and just see if I can beat my Turkey Trot time.8 -

12/04: 123.4- Been a little messed up the pass 3 weeks- thought I had started menopause but went backwards which explains alot!!! I am 55 I am over this!!!! Still TOMing!!! 6 days later, migraine for 3 weeks, but now know I did not overeat as much as I thought and was ridiculous in my cravings. Hope to be over this hormonal blip soon and be able to access and monitor in a regular controlled environment this round.
12/05: 124.2- Going wrong way and still messed up hormonally -its been a week now. Today no pickleball, home gym workout, harder to push myself here.
12/06: 124.2- So happy to see I held steady. Made my husband his favorite dinner but must have ate in moderation, he had to work yesterday and had an extremely difficult day! While waiting for him drank some wine and talked with my family out west. No pickleball, my secret to calorie burn, yesterday...will play this afternoon. Tried my best to log, always struggle with my own recipes and then proportions.
12/07: 123.0 The scale is a crazy thing- No idea when I went to weigh myself this morning I would be down, don't get me wrong this is great but did not see it coming- I am really hormonally screwed up right now so it must be related to this since I ate slightly over my calories yesterday.
12/08: 123.2- Again tried to guess, was wrong but going sideways for a few days would be good. Migraine finally abated, will probably be more productive in day now, maybe thought I would have stayed the same or slight move down but headache didn't stop to mysteriously around 6pm. Use an Apple Watch and not getting the negative adjustments- trying to search for more info onsite but search engine does not seem to work for me.

12/08 - 155.6 - Easing back down. Last night was a heavy dinner of steak, a small bit of macaroni&cheese (I'm a little kid), mashed potatoes, and greens so I'm not surprised to be up quite a bit still. Got ~75oz water but woke up feeling dehydrated still. Lips chapped, mouth dry, skin feeling dry and tight in a shriveled up kind of way. Definitely need to push water and I think that'll also help with the weight. Fasted just over 17hrs yesterday. I easily could've managed longer, but back to back meetings would've forced OMAD and I wasn't prepared for that. Today's meetings are a little more forgiving timeline wise - though will force a 16.5hr fast minimum. Not so forgiving when it comes to fitting in yoga. Its hard to listen to a yoga video AND a meeting!

Previous Day's Comments12/03 - Wowza, I didn't expect this. Scale even teased me by flasting 149.9 a couple times before settling. My official TOM is here so I'm wondering if that's playing a part in it. Hopefully it also means my hormones are rebalancing from the (potential) medicine interaction. I did admire myself in the mirror this morning - I can see how much different I look without all the chronic bloating. Apparently my fasting sweet spot is 17-18+ hrs instead of 16 to see significant drops in bloating. May be a bit more challenging to reach on a daily basis, but when its just BF and I, dinner is early enough to make it doable. I drank about 112oz (estimating) yesterday. I was real thirsty towards the evening. Fasted 17.5hrs. Was a bit peckish but wanted slightly longer fast. Had back to back meetings that I knew I couldn't make it through, though. BF made steak and mashed potatoes for us for dinner. I tried to eat slowly and mindfully as to not overeat, but I finished my plate and then finally felt the fullness 20 minutes later. Luckily, the stuffed feeling lasted only about 10 minutes and I was back to feeling satiated. Bodies are funny when you try to learn to listen to them. Definitely not the most straightforward at times.
12/04 - Ah man! Honestly, I expected a larger bump up. BF made chicken alfredo for dinner so there's some bloating from that. Fasted 16hrs - he made breakfast as well. Biscuits and gravy, yuuum. Its been a few weeks since I've had that so I decided to splurge. Hit 75oz I think. Didn't measure leftover water from my 32oz water bottle. I'm satisfied with it. Lazy day today, I think. Going to make bread base to refrigerate tonight for tomorrow's chicken gnocchi. Recipe says refrigerating it helps with fluffiness or something? Can be made 3 days ahead before popping it into oven. Guess we shall find out! Found out last night, his ex is letting the kids come down here for Christmas! A week!! They leave the 26th to go back We weren't expecting to have them again until spring break. He bought them presents from us to ship up there but now we want to spoil them some more and grab a few more things for them to open down here with us. EEK! Exciting.
12/05 - I'm shocked to be down. I started fasting after dinner but decided to drink a glass of hot gluhwein after BF told me the 2.5hr call with his mom is about his dad in hospital. Its an ugly situation all around. I felt helpless as I'm the helper type so I sipped my gluhwein and read while he isolated in the garage to work on the bug. Got to socially distance see Fam! COVID cancelled our usual Christmas parade, but the community (about 30 people) got together to do their own. Park on main street, stay in vehicles, and watch them drive personal vehicles decorated past us. We parked next to Fam and got to see the Godkids through the windows (Godson is still showing zero signs of COVID. If anything, he's crazier and happier than before hospital. Think its because he's free from hospital again). I was able to ask about gluten free flour alternative and now I can make enough dinner to drop off chicken gnocchi and bread. FamWife has sensitivies/intolerances so the soup has just enough of those to make her a little uncomfortable, but nothing huge (a little gluten from gnocchi and lactose). So I'll be making a second loaf today of gluten free bread to drop off to her with the soup! At least I know she can enjoy the bread without worry! Cooking and baking will be a good distraction and therapy for me today.
12/06 - Not shocked or worried. Had pizza for lunch as well as homemade bread and chicken gnocchi soup for dinner. A very heavy, high-carb day. Had one small glass of wine, but tummy feels like a hangover. I'm guessing that doesn't have to do with wine and is all food-related. I did have lots of dairy - cheese for lunch, heavy cream and cheese for dinner. Sipping water frequently this morning to overcome and seems to be helping. Managed 14hr fast yesterday and ~75oz water. Depending on when wings are done for Football Sunday and when my fast ends (aiming 16hrs, if I can), I'll save leftover chicken gnocchi for lunch tomorrow. Hopefully I can show a drop in the morning to get back on track.
12/07 - Holy moly bloat! The scale bloat is much worse than the visible bloat. Possibly due to water - I definitely didn't get more than 45oz yesterday. Woke up real thirsty, too, which is a tell-tale sign I didn't drink enough yesterday. Didn't think I ate too awful much. Fasted 15hrs, not terrible for a weekend for me. I'm very very tired, been up 10 minutes and already eying a nap kind of tired. Hopefully I can wake up and be functional soon.

12/01 -What better way to beat anxiety than yoga. Today I'll try to get some meditative yoga to help me calm down after last night.
12/02 -
Yesterday I got halfway through my yoga workout and the dog started throwing up everywhere. I have a weak stomach so cleaning it had me gagging and running to the bathroom. Ruined the mood. Try again today to make up for it
12/03 -Did get my yoga done yesterday. Yoga With Adriene has her December calendar up so I'm following those videos on the days I can practice. Yesterday was a 10 minute meditation yoga so I decided to get some movement as well by finishing the practice I didn't get to on 12/01. I just started over since it was also a pretty short one.
12/04 -Started my yoga practice but was interrupted with BF waking up earlier than normal. The worst part about having a house a tad too small.
12/05 -I realized I'm behind on YWA calendar. I did the meditation as day 2 instead of day 1! Oops. Hoping a short practice today since I'm not sure plans.
12/06 -Didn't get a practice in and not sure I'll get one in today. Will have to focus on getting them done during the week and give myself slack on weekends since they're always spur of the moment.
12/07 -No yoga. Couldn't even finish making coffee and BF was ready to go. I kind of figured that would happen. Hoping today I'll wake up a little bit more so I can get a practice in, even if its short and sweet.
12/08 -No yoga, work has been crazy busy with meetings. Today is even busier! Almost back to back meetings. It'll be a miracle if I can get yoga in today. The remainder of my work week looks just as bad. Will keep looking for opportunities

Highest lifetime weight: 138 lbs. August 2011
Goal Weight: 110 but also happy with where I’m at right now.
Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4 ->115 ->113 -> 113-> 113.8 ->114.6 -> 113.6 -> 115.8
Goal weight for this round: Maintaining around 113 or dropping to 112 would be nice.
Another goal: Embrace the scale fluctuations and not get flustered.
Previous days 12/3 116.0 Did not post.
12/4 Did not weigh yet. My husband has his last final of OT grad school this morning, so I don’t want to bother him while he’s trying to fall back to sleep on the couch (I work from home in our bedroom). I’m so excited for him and we are going to North Conway, NH this weekend to celebrate him finishing the school part (he still has to work full time for free from January through June) and also celebrate my 30th birthday a bit more because we couldn’t go out anywhere for it last month. We’ll just hangout in the room and get take-out from a restaurant we love but it’ll be fun because the rooms are awesome and each one has a different theme.

12/8 Our weekend away was so nice! We celebrated and truly enjoyed the relaxation. We ate yummy food and enjoyed delicious beverages. It was a great weekend and I’m glad to get back on track today!
12/3 Did not post, but I did do 25 minutes of yoga
12/4 Did a 30 minute yoga session from the Playbook app. I plan on working in a spin bike session today too at some point. I gave my body a break yesterday from the bike and I think it really helped. I’m loving yoga because it makes me more aware of how not flexible I am. I know by doing it daily, it will help improve my flexibility and help strengthen my body in ways I hadn’t been working on with just the spin bike. We’re not leaving for NH until tomorrow late morning, so I’ll be able to work a spin bike workout into my Saturday too!

I originally started this challenge in December 2018 and lost 42.6 lbs in 13 months. I’m up 13 lbs since March 2020 and I really want to start changing things now instead of waiting to the end of the year.

12/06 146, plan on doing a 45 minute peloton ride and will start decorating the Christmas tree today.
12/07 145.8, I hope to do a 45 min bike ride and 30 minute barre class today. I made a corn chowder for dinner yesterday and have leftovers so dinner is already made, which is always easier for staying on track.
12/08 145.7, I’m going to focus on really increasing my water intake today (only had 36 oz yesterday). Final day of corn chowder (one disadvantage and advantage of living by myself is that meals last 2-3 days, but also meals are usually ready just for reheating).

Round 134
Please join us! Starting on 12/03 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 134
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.
Goals
- check in at least every other day

12/03 169.9 ~ {Steps 6,981} ~ Spot on with diet and a shorter workout. I pulled a hamstring a couple days ago so basically besides yoga, I’m only talking Pete for his morning walk.
12/04 169.9 ~ {Steps 8,985} ~ I decided to start decorating, haven’t been in the mood lately. 😖
12/05 169.9 ~ {Steps 14,195} ~ I’ve NEVER had the scale the same for 3 days, my sodium isn’t high or calories. The only difference is my workouts. I’m thinking I might have to get another SHORT walk in.on the bright spot my hamstring isn’t as bad.
12/06 168.5 ~ {Steps 6,483} ~ woot hoot, now it’s time to keep the scale moving the right direction. The key is to keep moving 🚶♀️and healthy food choices 🫐🍌🥒🍎🧅🍆
12/07 ~ 167.5 ~ {Steps 10,431} ~ Today we decided to take a day drive, just to get a different out of dodge, lol. It helped tremendously, finding a nice trail to get a walk with my husband.
12/08 167.5 ~ {Steps TBD} ~

Hi there I'm up a couple pounds and don't want that to continue (obviously!). I have a bunionectomy happening Friday (hmmm....extra eating because of that?!?! perhaps. )
Also, super concerned that being more sedentary due to the surgery will impact my weight.
UNLESS I do something like THIS challenge!
Thanks for who ever hosts this. I appreciate it (or I will, I know I will).

Day/Weight/Comment
12/3 - 182.4
Another unintentional very low-cal day. I’m finding that a high-protein + moderate fat/low(er) simple carbs breakfast leaves me less hungry all day, and we’ve been having bigger lunches and a small snack at supper time the past few days. Not sure DH would go for this way of eating long term, but I could. Anyway, I’m feeling much better and in control than I have in a long time (which I attribute partly to being off FB for the past couple of weeks) + not scrolling the news feeds constantly! I’m hoping to get some walking mileage in the next few days while it’s in the 40s, before the temp drops and I hibernate indoors! Wishing everyone a good round!
12/4 - 182
I’ve decided to drop the competitive (mostly with myself!) frame around walking, though I’ll likely sign up in the spring for some races again. One thing I’m trying to work on along with another Type A friend is being kinder and less competitive with myself. All my life I’ve pushed myself very hard toward quantifiable goals, which has helped me to a fair amount of success in different realms. But my friend suggested a few days ago that I’m too hard on myself, especially during this weird, difficult time we’re living. “You’d never push a friend that hard or track them in so many arenas — calories, miles/minutes, words [I’m a writer] per day, or beat them up when they fall short.” I think she may be right. Goals are useful, but there’s a time for everything and although I’ll keep tracking calories & weight for a while, mostly out of habit, I’m going to try to cut myself some slack in other areas. I even slept in this morning!
12/5 - 182
Happy Saturday, all!

DH brought home some raspberry sherbet. I indulged a bit. I hadn’t had any in, wow, years maybe. Delish, and now I’m over it.
12/7 - 182
Monday, Monday...and cold! I guess vacuuming and scrubbing the tub will be my exercise.🧽🪣 And knitting counts, yes? I’m trying to finish a scarf for a friend. Have a love day!

Ha ha! I just noticed my typo yesterday — I meant lovely, but a love day sounds good, too. I seem to be back to my body’s favorite weight — she really loves to hang out here. Have a lovely love day!

12/7: 174.0 Been off MFP for the last few days. Whacked my head pretty hard putting groceries in my car and been avoiding screens & resting as much as possible. Starting to feel a little better.
12/8: 173.8 Feeling much better today. It's been a week since my last run, really feeling the urge to get out today for a least a short one and see how I feel. I recently bought a duo instapot/air fryer online for my DH as one of his Christmas gifts and it shipped in a box that showed what it was & of course he was home when it arrived. So since the surprise was ruined, we went ahead and opened it, going to try it out tonight, thinking about doing "fried" chicken wings. Anyone have any good cookbook recommendations for air fryers or instapots?

Last chance before the Solstice, Christmas, and New Year's Eve, to get some calorie domination in!

The saga of the chicks continues. Abandoning the two remaining eggs yesterday, the hen and three chicks had a grand first day out of the nest pecking, scratching, and all that wholesomeness, but did not return to the nest, I had to gather up the eggs and keep them warm till they hatched -which they did today (after a rough night for me of turning up/down an electric throw blanket every hour or so to maintain heat at the right temp)
Monitoring the two chicks (and their blanket) all day, I had no energy left for anything else, None. I found myself completing the routine tasks mindlessly, and definitely would have strayed from my kj budget but I'd already preplanned my food which saved me the effort of having to choose what to have and made it... just easier.
I realised I need this in my life. It's a new goal to preplan my food every day for Dec (changes on the day are fine)
12/04 = 91
Sad start to the morning, one of the chicks passed away overnight (drowned in the chick waterer somehow) we buried her under the mulberry tree, RIP sweetie.
The good news is that in the evening the two late hatched chicks, now named Dora (the explorer) and Daisy (she? is tiny with a large yellow patch) easily joined the other two chicks under the fluffy butt of Tweets (the hen), who at first seemed a little confused but happy at having suddenly doubled her wards
I tried to stay awake to listen out for chick trouble and don't even remember falling into blissfully undisturbed sleep.
(I didn't feel so great today and didn't eat enough, or so MFP informs me in Big Red Letters, I do hope it's not three strikes you're out )
12/05 = 90.8
I'm feeling the calorie deficit today! That'll teach me to eat half my calories, I'm extra useless!
So I'm having an indulgence day, the only thing I'm keeping green today is the kj count, the rest can put on the red light,
put on the red light
put on the red light
Roxanne!
12/06 = 90.5
Wowzers! Onederland!
Hope I can still be under 200lbs at the end of the round! *fingers crossed* If I can manage it I decided that I'm going to buy myself a fruit tree as a reward
(I can't tell ya how hard it was to come up with a non-food based reward
note to self: get better at that!)
The younger chicks have settled in and all four are enjoying the arrival of an electric brooder (that I ordered way back before my hen went broody) though they seem to prefer the real thing most of the time
Onwards to building the top part of the enclosure before they start flying!
12/08 = 90.0
I've been dreading my dentist appointment tomorrow so I wasted my free time today searching for presents online instead of getting on with one of my Many Projects.
I don't like shopping online, actually, I don't like shopping. I find it exhausting to want so much but then I have a difficult time with "want", "need", on the other hand, is quantifiable "how much do I need it?" is usually pretty easy to figure out, wants are so complex, always tangled up with whys and whens and whos
The most difficult thing to acknowledge is that I can't ever have it all, be it all, do it all, given limited resources - one life - 24 hours - 60 minutes.
If I ever got a tattoo it would say:
Choose well, but choose now.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.
Round 133
Month/Day: Weight / Comment
12/03: 210.4 / happy to start another ten days that matter. It’s easy to see how an unexamined life can eb away if you aren’t paying attention.
12/04: 209 / Hope you all have a great Friday! This weekend I am going to try to figure out how to get more active. Yoga with Adrienne is my go-to also when it comes to virtual yoga. Before the pandemic I was practicing twice a week in a class at the gym.
I think about YWA a lot…. I just need to unroll the mat and do it!
That reminds me of my Meyers-Briggs personality analysis. I think it is INTJ. (Introvert, Intuitive, Thinking, Judging) I might be an F instead of a J. Feeling. One of the traits is that if an INTJ thinks through how to do something (which they always do before hand), they somehow think in their memory that they have already done it. HA!
On the Enneagram scale I am a five.
12/05: 210.2 / yoyo
12/06: 211
12/07: 210.8 / Yesterday, I not only rolled out my matt, but I did some yoga.
12/08: 211.4 / Trying something new today. Less salt and less sugar.
This morning I realized that it has been a while since I let myself get hungry. By that I mean “first world” hungry. For me, first world hunger is more of a (mental?) pang, not a pain. Grateful that I live in an area of the world where food is abundant. I take it for granted. I am always topping off the “tank.”
I support an organization that helps families in the Dominican Republic. Every year they offer supporters the “rice and beans challenge.” Only eat rice and beans for a week and donate the money you save on groceries to help feed children in the DR. So, what do I do? I eat my normal diet and donate money anyway. That is how blessed I am, and also how unwilling I am to experience any pain or inconvenience… I need to work on that.
Sorry, this is not a rant at you all. Just for myself. Thanks for letting me share.
