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.
02/25- 221lb. Stuck to my calorie goal yesterday. Plan for today is to meal prep for the next couple of days, to make sure that I stick to my calories. Aiming to do a HiiT workout today from YouTube just to get me moving again after COVID. Before Christmas I was running 5K 3-5 times per week, so want to slowly build towards that again.
02/26- 221lb. Was within my calories yesterday, didn’t manage any exercise, so I’m going to remedy that today by going on a nice 90 minute walk with my 1 year old (in the pram). Late night snacking continue to be an issue- I need to remember that just because biscuits etc are in the house, doesn’t mean I need to eat them!

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 it200lbs by next Tuesday feeling a bit unlikely now.
02/25 - 201.6 - another good day yesterday in terms of CICO. But recognising a pattern here: I do well on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays; I do ok on Wednesdays and Sundays; and I do poorly on Mondays. Probably because at weekends I allow myself to drink Diet Coke and eat saltier foods, so the effects of that are being felt by Monday.

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!
02/25 172.8 I got nothing! What I’m eating is not reflected in this number. Did 7 miles on the bike last night and played out in the yard on a gorgeous afternoon.
02/26 170.6 Whew! That’s better! that it's jeans day at work on Fridays and the ones I've been wearing are too big now. Down two sizes in my jeans today.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/21 56, 4 - a lot of mindless overeating at Sunday family dinner + a whole bar of chocolate. Caused the weight gain on Monday morning. Back on track and back focused know with this challenge
02/22 56,6 - gain due to Sunday eating.
02/23 56,25 - had a perfect macro/ eating day yesterday & it already shows. Also starting to pre-plan my days more consistently again, so I don't just leave it to my willpower.
02/24 56,95 - so frustrated. did not post yesterday because of it. I totally binged eating with my roommates.
02/25 56,40 - because of my binge the day before I still binged yesterday. It was a total self-sabotaging 'whatever, it will never work, I can just quit now'-moment. But I don't want to quit. I really don't want to fall down that rabbit hole. But it has been increasingly hard to stay motivated. I planned out my day for today. I will show up better for tomorrows.
02/26 56,40 - Same as yesterday. Calorie & workout wise yesterday was nearly perfect. I did however eat quite a lot of sugar and salt, so maybe that has an effect. I do however feel great in my body today look wise. Motivation is quite high again to finish this 10-days strong!

02/22 194.0 Very disappointed today I just didn’t see that coming.
02/23 193.5 Good day followed by take out for dinner, went way over
02/24 193.9 Better day. Somewhere along the I gained, really gained and now I need a boost for getting rid of it.
02/25 192.4 COVID positive at daycare closed for 2 weeks. The direct exposure for my children means they are quarantined until tested. I have to wait until Monday because a test too early can result in false negative. So I am home from work until I get test results. Their father will watch them then Weather was nice yesterday so we went for a walk about the only thing you can do under quarantine.
02/26 190.9 Stress from this situation and having to be indebted to their father in any way. I don't think it's true weight loss.

[quote=". @musicsax. Not been able to find tinned pumpkin here in the UK yet although Sainsburys do say they stock it.
[/quote]
@musicsax this makes me chuckle. I live in Morton, Illinois, what we call the "pumpkin capital of the world." Ha! I am told that 80% of the pumpkin that is consumed in the world is canned in the Libby's plant here. They process pumpkin for different labels also. All of the pumpkin for that plant is grown within 50 miles of here. Every September we have a pumpkin festival! The food tent has all kinds of concoctions made with pumpkin including pumpkin donuts, pumpkin chili, pumpkin ice cream, and of course pumpkin pie. It is all delicious. There may be other pumpkin festivals in the country, but we consider them to be counterfeit. Hahaha!
One of the attractions around here in the fall is the pumpkin chucking contest. There are different categories like human-powered, catapult, and canon. The perennial winner in the Canon category can actually shoot it about a mile.6 -

🎯Mini Goal: 208
I let the winter storm issues really mess up my weight loss success last week. The 205-206 slipped away and I'm back up where I was at the beginning of 2021. Time to turn this boat around.
I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
2/21 211.9 Walk 3 miles. 2506 cal, 316 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. My weight has gotten out of control. Today I’m going to focus on just one thing … 80 oz water. Then plan to build from there each day this week.
2/22 211.7 Walk 3 miles. 2045 cal, 136 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Targeting 80 oz water but drank 64 oz water yesterday. Today’s focus low net carbs along with water again.
2/23 211.9 Walk 4 miles. 1778 cal, 45 net carbs, AF. Drank 80 oz water, nailed net carbs. Today I add vitamins on top of getting my 2nd COVID vaccine.
2/24 209.6 Walk 3.4 + .6 miles. 1550 cal, 61 net carbs, AF. Very rough night … headache, arm sore, chills/shivering, achy all over, little to no sleep. Going to try to push through it today and walk the dog but likely will be back in bed trying to sleep later today.
2/25 208.1 Walk .6 miles, gardened a little, 1754 cal, 132 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Slept! Long morning & afternoon naps. Think I’m fully recovered. Weight is also shedding those winter storm pounds.
2/26 208.8 @ fishing camp 🎣 No exercise, long drive to camp, 1937 cal, 107 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Plan to walk, clean the camp house, clean up the plant damage from the freeze, and maybe if I’m lucky fish this afternoon. Mom is getting her COVID vaccine today so I’ll be here to monitor her, cook, etc this weekend. Remembered to bring my scale to the camp!

Need to get some form of exercise kick started.
I have a trip planned for May that will be a good inspirational milestone.

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.

02/21: 213.4
Was a bit over on calories yesterday, and did a very light session with dumbbells working on range of motion mostly.
02/22: 213.2
Pretty quiet day yesterday. Took a walk around the block since the weather was not unbearable.
02/23: 212.6
This loss despite a moment of weakness last night right before bed. Another see-food event.
02/24: 212.6
A rare repeat weight! Better than going up. Trying to chip away. Having a little skin cancer removed from my neck today, so that should really show up on the scale tomorrow. Ha!
02/25: 212.2
It really makes a difference if I pack my own lunch for work instead of launching myself out the door at lunchtime in search of whatever sounds good. Warning to self: they are building a new Arby’s less than a mile from my office right now.
02/26: 212.2
So, my body likes to prove me wrong. I have now had two sets of identical weigh-ins in a row. Some of you may remember my rant about how I don’t know how some of you do that. I will sit down and shut up now. 😊

@UTMom81 - what a fantastic NSV, jeans being 2 sizes too big, enjoy buying smaller ones
@starrjulia8 - I really hope things pan out positively and the tests are negative, for you to ease your stress, you don't need anymore!! Sending you comforting hugs
@_JeffreyD_ - funny how it seems that fate is tempted when we make statements! Maybe you'l start to have more consecutive daily weights now .
Glad I gave you a pumpkin smile . I remember one Halloween evening when our children were young we took them to a historic castle which was all decorated up with lighted pumpkins and one of the events there was firing pumpkins from the trebuchet. It was quite fun to watch, of course they smashed to smithereens, but all the kids enjoyed it!!

Day, Weight, Comment
2/21 – 200.8 – 13,484 steps, 30 min aerobics, 10 min weights yesterday. Results on the scale haven’t been fabulous the last couple of weeks, but I’m definitely feeling stronger. A new interval workout I started about 3-4 weeks ago was nearly impossible at first but relatively easy now. Today we’re going cross-country skiing, so I will be hungry. I think it’s a good trade-off. I will be mindful of what I’m eating today and try to keep the day’s calories down by skipping dinner.
2/22 – 201.6 – 19,686 steps yesterday, cross country skiing. Focusing today on eating mindfully. Today’s plan is fruits and veggies only until dinner. Small portion at dinner.
2/23 – 201.8 – 10,572 steps, 40 min aerobics yesterday. Getting ready to go skiing today and feeling really down about how fat I am. I doubt I’ll be able to do it and I’ll look like a giant hippo out there. Hopefully won’t break the chair lift or my leg. Can’t fit into last season’s pants or jacket. Really don’t want to do this but we already have the ticket. Going to work on my confidence this morning and pushing past all the negative feelings.
2/24 – 201.8 – 10,360 steps, 10 min weights, downhill skiing yesterday. Well, I did it, even though I was convinced I couldn’t and shouldn’t. I didn’t last very long and could only do the easiest runs – and today muscles I didn’t know I had are sore. I’m really too heavy to do too much downhill skiing, but it’s a good motivator to get in shape and I love doing it even if I’m terrible and look like an uncoordinated hippo on the mountain. We plan to go again on Sunday. Tired of this plateau (which is completely of my own making). I’ve had trouble fitting 24-hour fasts in the last couple of weeks. I will plan for one tomorrow and be mindful of my eating today: no eating at the cupboard, no eating at the counter, no trail mix, fruit and veggies only during the day before dinner.
2/25 – 201.4 – 10,547 steps, 30 min aerobics, 10 min weights yesterday. Woo-hoo! Excited to be moving in the right direction finally. Will work on keeping the momentum going today.
2/26 – 198.2 – 19,029 steps, 40 min aerobics yesterday. Down a little because I fasted yesterday. Hope to keep the momentum going! Feeling good because I finally got a job interview – just a phone interview, but it’s a start. I was really feeling defeated. Focus on eating mindfully as always. Off to walk the dogs.
