Round 145
23 March - 1 April 2021

Please join us! Starting on 03/23 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 145
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
- Participate
- Low carb

    23/3 - 195.8. Yesterday was ok. Reasonably below target calories. But I have noticed I am struggling more to resist temptation over the last week or two. So need to get my head back in the game. Weirdly though, after bouncing up to 198 yesterday, I'm back down to just under 196 this morning.

    @TerriRichardson112 Thank you, Terrie! I hesitated to set it up because in the past we both set a round up within minutes which added to the confusion! I checked several times as I had also seen her daily posts, then got busy with my day and never gave it another thought! I,too, hope everything is okay with @GrandmaJackie

    Female age 62 5' 4” - Challenge for this round; maintenance – stay >130 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! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    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 – I've had my first, spread positivity and encouragement for it to others.

    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to acheive my under 130 target; back to mainanence again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
