Day/Weight/Comment
02/20 …..205.0 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
02/21 …..205.0 ….. I made horrible choices yesterday eating on the grab from within my home. Calories were okay but the carbs were through the roof and contained very little nutritional value. I hope to make better choices today. I definitely need more protein today. Thankful for no weight gain.
02/22 …..207.2 ….. It was only ice cream and I skipped a meal for it! Yo-Yo. Disgusted! Now I will spend this entire round just trying to get back to starting weight. Why, oh why, oh why????
02/23 …..207.2 ….. I got nothing.
02/24 …..xxxxx …..
02/25 …..xxxxx …..
02/26 …..xxxxx …..
02/27 …..xxxxx …..
02/28 …..xxxxx …..
03/01 …..xxxxx …..
03/02 …..xxxxx …..02/01 I am grateful for my ability to retire early at age 60. I am beginning to finally feel better rested and more in control of my life. Owning 2 motels and cabins left me working 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, with never a day off. The businesses were located on my home property so there was never any rest, peace or privacy. The number of employees – 1. Just me and the occasional handyman I would hire if the job was above my skill set. What will I do for the rest of my life? As a widow, travel is a bit scary. I am not sure yet. But hopefully I will have lots of time to figure it out.
02/02 I love my new house. It is old and smoky and needs lots of updating and work but I love the possibilities. Mostly I love that it allows me to have a separate apartment in the basement for my adult disabled son. I love we can work harder on independence for him.
02/03 I love the frontline workers who allow me to shelter safely in my home while they are out on the frontlines battling this virus. Thank you to each and everyone of them. I hope you feel the love and respect.
02/04 I love my children and grandchildren. Without them, life would be meaningless. Thank you to God for placing them in my life.
02/05 I love my 3 new squirrel friends. All black squirrels, so shiny and beautiful. One is a little piggy and doesn’t want the other 2 to eat so I will have to work on that. I call him Ziffel (after Arnold the pig from Green Acres). Squirrel #2 is really skinny because Ziffel doesn’t share very often. I call him Green Bean (after the skinny Hee Haw character). # 3 only comes around about 2 times a week. He is always frustrated by Ziffel and always gets the shortest end of the stick. I call him Darren Stevens (after the hubby in Bewitched). I guess the names I have chosen is showing my age! In any case, I love all 3 of them.
02/06 I love chocolate. There is no getting around that. I am constantly trying to find ways to satisfy that craving without tipping the boat over during my journey. There it is. I honestly LOVE chocolate.
02/07 I love the memories I have with all my loved ones, especially those that have passed. Some memories are becoming fleeting for me, others rise to the surface with incidents’ that I long ago thought I had forgotten. Memories with my brothers & sisters. My cousins. My school friends. My past pets. I love that, through memories, they are with me always.
02/08 I love when I can make a difference in someone’s life. No matter how big or small.
02/09 I love every pet I’ve ever owned. I am thankful that since I have been out on my own (1980) I have cremated every doggy and kitty. They are now able to move with me. I love they are here with me in my new home.
02/10 I love sleep. It is hard for me to sleep as long as I would like. I am usually a 4 hour girl. In retirement I have started getting more 5 hour nights and am slipping back down to the 3 and 4 hour nights less often. I am trying hard to sleep longer but it just doesn’t seem to come for me. However, I do love sleep. The less I get, the more precious it is to me.

However, I do love sleep. The less I get, the more precious it is to me.
02/11 I love plants & flowers. It will be exciting what I can do with the landscape in my new home. Planting in my area of Michigan (zone 4) usually can’t begin until the end of Mary or beginning of June so I impatiently wait.
02/12 I love no alarm clock days. Today was not one of them but I know that today is the day that the Lord hath made, so I will be glad and rejoice in it.
02/13 I love a good book or movie and a hot cup of tea in the evening with no disruptions. I don’t get it very often, so when I do, it is so so appreciated and enjoyed.
02/14 Self Love: I love my strength and determination as a woman. I really feel I have made my own mark on the world in my professional life and my personal one too. My start in life was meager and difficult. I love that I overcame so much and reached such wonderful goals. I need to apply the same strength to my weight.
02/15 I love my morning coffee and appreciate it when no one tries to talk to me until I get in at least one sip.
02/16 I love a good hike in our beautiful national forest that is nearby. It is very rustic and follows the river. So beautiful that I just want to hug every tree and thank them for being a part of my life. I can’t wait for the snow and ice to melt, the birds to start chirping and the trails to be safe again. Spring can’t come soon enough!
02/17 I love MFP for offering this forum to us. I love “Just give me 10 days” especially. I love the support that you all bring to my life. The ideas. The remedies. The hope for progress and health in my own life. I love how open and honest you share your journeys, but also your struggles and triumphs on many things in your life. Thank you to all of you for the caring and the sharing!
02/18 I love my memories. The ability to go back and pull your lost loved ones back into your life, even for a moment, is a true gift from God.
02/19 I love my friends who never give up on me, even when my time is so restricted.
02/20 I love travel and I hope someday to do it again with someone special that may come into my life.
02/21 I love “Just give me 10 days.” Thank you grandma Jackie and all the participants. From you, I have learned so much!
02/22 I love bright beautiful flowers in the garden, fragrant or not.
02/23 I love a beautiful sunset in the evening. The kind with all the beautiful pink hydrogen mixed with the golden orange of the sun. It speaks to me and assures me that all is well and that everything is going to be okay. God is the Artist of it all.10 -

02/23- 223.2lb. Wow- my highest weight ever, and I feel at an all time low. My weight has rocketed in the last 18 months, I now need to do something about it. I've lost weight with MFP before, just need the consistency to see it through, as I have got quite a lot to lose. Set my calories to 1700 per day and will log meals the night before. Today I am planning on sticking to my meals, with NO snacking in between. Going to go for a walk to burn some calories, but having to take it easy due to just recovering from COVID.
02/24- 221.4lb Went for a brisk 5K walk yesterday and stuck to my calorie goal. Had a nice evening meal of blackened cod, salsa and smashed avacado- it was really nice. Plan for today is to stick to my calorie goal and make sure I drink enough water.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 142 (round 74 for me ) I''ve proved I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @GrandmaJackie you so enrich so many of our lives by keeping the challenge going.
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 closer to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life ! Long term goal is to get and then stay under 130; then full maintanace starts and dare I say it is in my sights?
Challenge for this round (same as last !) – get back into and stay in 120's? Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, try to keep it in moderation, keep walking, no binges; remember keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference! Run 4 x during the 10 days.
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.End of round 69 134.2 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
02/21 - 201.2. Had a good day yesterday - went for a 15km walk, had a high rate of burn, and kept calories well under my limit even with a takeaway for dinner and some high calorie biscuits as snacks.
02/22 - 202.6. I always seem to get a bit of a bounce on a Monday after a the weekend. Sunday was good - in theory I could have eaten 4000 cals to stay under my target daily average, but stuck to 2150 calories.
02/23 - 202.8 - yesterday was an ok day. Under calories but not terribly active.
02/24 - 202.4 - well under calorie target yesterday, and had a decent walk. Scales were slightly all over the place this morning. At one point they went up to 203.6, but when I got 202.4 I banked it and logged it 200lbs by next Tuesday feeling a bit unlikely now.

@CamandJarvis Good luck on your surgery this week (and your pup's too). We will be thinking of and praying for you.
@Lilylady3k I don't know if your doc has prescribed a certain type of vitamin, but I couldn't take vitamins in the mornings on an empty stomach...they made me so sicky feeling. However, I CAN and do take the gummy vitamins (women's and D3 for my bones as prescribed). They do not make me feel that way, and I keep them where I do my hair and makeup each morning, so it's easy for me to remember them. Also, my dog reminds me every day, because I keep small training treats there for her, so she thinks she's taking her vitamins too. She just has to do an obedience command to get hers each day. LOL.
@beagletracks Hope you enjoyed your skiing adventure. Just think of all the calories you burned! Aren't you glad you did it?
@AR10at50 Your "fed the dogs the mac and cheese" made me laugh out loud!8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
02/21 170.4 Scales are at my Dad’s house this morning, so I’m not sure how this compares to yesterday’s weight on my home scales, but I’ll take it, for now! that Emberly and I were able to go spend the weekend with Dad. He had such a great time with her!
02/22 172.0 The indulgences from my weekend with Dad. I’m fine with it, and will work on moving the scale back down this week. I’d really like to be in the 160s, even by just a smidge, by the end of this round, so hopefully that goal will be motivation enough. Got in 7.1-mile bike ride last night. that it’s going to be warmer this week and I’m hoping for some outside garden work and exercise.
02/23 172.0 Really thought I’d have dropped a bit this morning, but no luck. Had a good food day yesterday and got in 3.36 miles of outdoor walks after work!!! Felt so good to be outside again! that it is staying light long enough to walk, even after our early dinner. Don’t know about y’all, but I’m getting a hankering for SPRING!
02/24 172.4 Headed the wrong direction which I halfway expected after losing 6 pounds last round. Time to stop it and go back the other way again. Food wasn’t really bad yesterday, but I ate too much at dinner and was uncomfortable afterwards. I have been doing IF still, at least 16 hours on all but Friday into Saturday when we have a standing breakfast appointment with the grand baby. Sometimes I make it 18 or 19, but I’m consistently over 16. Got in a 1.53 mile walk and a short (3.62 mile) bike session last night. that I was able to walk again during lunch yesterday and that it was daylight when I got to work yesterday morning! Spring is coming! I also that today is my Daddy's 90th birthday! I am so lucky to still have such a fine man in my life!

Love for myself—100-Mile Challenge—Total So Far = 105.32
9 -
Well, since it is 4 days till the end of February, you know I'm thinking of a new challenge for March. I do worry a bit about being presumptuous in a group in which I am not a leader, so if you guys every want me to quit doing these, please do not hesitate to send me a message and tell me to stop. I can always just challenge myself, quietly.
That said, if anyone is interested, we can begin a Step Challenge of sorts on March 1. You know I usually like for us to compete with ourselves but train together, so that's my intention here. I have been in Step Challenges before where there was one person who got in so many more steps than I ever could, that it became a discouragement instead of an encouragement, and I never want that to happen here, not in this group! So, in this challenge, think about what would encourage you to step out a little more and set that as your goal! For instance, if you track them, look back at a 10-day period and see what your average steps were, then aim to increase that average by a given amount. Or just set a daily step goal (or round average goal or whatever suits your fancy), then post your goal and your progress here. If you don't track steps or have a way to, you can set any other fitness goal for yourself and track that too--miles, plank times, number of aerobics sessions, anything really. That's fine, too! Be thinking about what your goal for the March rounds might be. We will begin our tracking on March 1.
Here's the logo for March. Download the image and insert it into your posts, if you like, as a way for us to identify participants easily. And remember, these challenges are always optional, so it's totally 100% fine if you don't wish to participate.
