    Ok, asking again — does anyone know what causes weird line/paragraph formatting in posts? Why are all my paragraphs (post above) split into columns?

    Edit — I may have figured it out — I used the align left command. I thought that was the default, but maybe not.

    You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.
    Female, 5’3”, 60
    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
    GW: <200 in 2020 BMI 35.2
    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese

    My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

    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
    3/13 207.1 Walk 2.7 miles, 1959 cal, 97 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Nachos & ice cream & rice … not the best day and not the right way to tackle stress.
    3/14 207.0 Walked 2.6 miles, 1567 cal, 92 net carbs, AF. Lazy day. I took the day as a mental break and accomplished 3 things: grocery shopping, my walk, cutting DH’s hair. Otherwise I dreamed of vacations (created a wish list with DH while we dined at an outside restaurant) and searched for European River Cruises and Backroads Active Travel Adventures. Let me know if you have any suggestions!
    3/15 207.7 Walked 3.3 miles, gardened, 2083 cal, 108 net carbs, AF. Lots of unnecessary snacks between 1-4pm :( I was tired and should have taken a nap!
    3/16 207.7 No exercise, dine out for lunch & dinner, shopping for dress, 2325 cal, 73 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. My sister is on spring break so we are running the roads and I’m still stressed with party planning, deadlines all week, meetings all meet with vendors, as well as hosted book club over zoom.
    3/17 208.1 Walked 1 mile, shopping for dress, 2031 cal, 131 net carbs, 1 skinny margarita lunch with sister, 2 wine dinner. Need to reel myself back in and focus on me first before stressing for the day.

    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.

    @CamandJarvis Can you get a special cup that is daughter’s? Or write her name on a Big Red Cup? That’s what we do at family reunions so we don’t end up throwing away a hundred extra cups.

    I have the exact same problem. Anytime I bold, italicize, add an emoji, or anything other than change the color, the text after that goes to the next column. :) I tried 2 different browsers and it does the same thing. I'm going to try the align left command too.

    03/15 118 Oh hey salty weekend and TOM arriving soon. The time change makes me so sleepy. My mom has also been in the hospital due to some stomach/gi issues… I think that is also wearing on me because it’s been like 18 days now. I have a good week of food planned though.
    This weekend I was a bit indulgent and we went to Patriot Place for dinner Friday night because it was in the 60’s and we wanted to eat on a patio…but that ended up being a delicious burger and fries with wine and a sangria. Then, we picked up a bottle of wine on the way home. Then, on Saturday we went out to lunch in Newburyport because we were already near there because of an errand we were running. That lunch wasn’t as bad calorically, but it was salty. Yesterday my food was pretty good, I had two small homemade banana bread muffins (300 cals total) with a couple eggs, strawberries and a small bit of Greek yogurt to dip the berries. I had an apple for a snack. Then, dinner was roasted butternut squash, onion, and Bratwurst served over kale that we got from our CSA’s. I had never had Bratwurst so I was curious to try it. The left overs from that will be my breakfast today. Happy Monday everyone!
    03/16 116.6 did not post
    03/17 116.0 I’ve just decided that life is just crazy. Food was on point yesterday and it’s been solid today as well. I plan on making up for not being able to read everyone's posts and taking the time to this weekend as I'm dog sitting for my cousin's two English bulldogs who like to lounge around more than me lol. So expect pictures of their wrinkly faces. Have a good night!

    Looking forward: You are not stuck at home.
    You are SAFE at home. One word can change your attitude
    ☠️One cough can change your life☠️
    😷Take care! Stay safe!😷

    March focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

    Aims:
    2021 Focus:
    • Maintain weight < 150
    • 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

    Never give up! Never give in!
    Recent Back Story:
    • 2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
    • 2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
    • 2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
    • That's a WIN in my book!
    • 2021
    • Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
    • (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

    THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
    REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.
    • 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.
    Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!
