Not sure what’s happening with @GrandmaJackie but will get us started in the meantime.
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

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.

Day/Weight/Calories/P-F-C/Comment3/23 - 184.6 - 1849 😕 - P21 F36 C43 😐
Back to basics, methinks. Calories matter, but so do macros and their parts. I already know that 1500 seems to be the magic number for me for calories, at least right now, and I own up to eating more than that way too regularly. But I just took a look back at my macros, which lately have been low on protein (~16%), good on carbs (45%, mostly whole grains, veggies, legumes, though also too much nice cream lately), high on fat (~40%, a lot from cheese). When I was losing regularly I was eating ~P20-25%, F~30%, mostly unsaturated, C45-50%, mostly veggies, whole grains, legumes, and virtually no added sugars. I was also more active, and I’m working on that. Not going to the gym all year has not helped — I used to go every day M-F, plus long outdoor walks. Anyway, I’m sort of thinking out loud here (?) here, but it helps me ‘fess up and face the reality that I’m no longer holding steady at too heavy but am gaining again. So.... I’m grateful for this nonjudgmental forum, though I’m sure some of you must be rolling your eyes at my repeated vows to do something “this round”! 🙄 Ok, I’m off now to get a new bluebird house and to walk the Indiana Native Tree Trail along the St. Marys River before the rain. Happy round to us all!

03/23 …..209.0 ….. 2 chili dogs and a ton of water. My daughter brought it home from an out-of-town dairy queen. Oh, and a medium Blizzard. She’s a bad influence and I am weaker than I thought. How do you say no to one of your children who just spent hard earned money on you? She and I are going to have to have a talk.

04/01 …..xxxxx …..03/01 – 11,051 Steps yesterday. The most steps in a very long time. Certainly the most since my retirement!
03/02 - 6,181 Steps yesterday. It was a busy day with the remodel. Full house.
03/03 - 4,937 Steps yesterday. Unexpected travel with lots of car rides. I keep my fitbit on my non-dominate wrist, not my ankle, so I know I actually got in over 10,000 with ALL the shopping. However, I had no time for any extra planned exercise yesterday so I am grateful for the steps in the big box stores.
03/04 - 6,589 It was a paperwork day. Not as much movement or as many steps as I would have liked.
03/05 - 4,276. Another paperwork day as I prepped for my attorney appointment today for my will & trust (and other matters). Travel today will bring light steps for tomorrow also.
03/06 - 7,489 Traveled but still got in some steps.
03/07 – 6,827 Steps. I should have tried harder. I probably could have gotten more in. I have been doing some planned stairs in the house though.
03/08 - 7,092 Steps. I had a sit-down meeting last night so getting more steps in was impossible. I am shocked, actually, that I got in this many!
03/09 - 8,217 Steps.
03/10 - 7,123 Steps. I had a movie night last night.
03/11 - 8,635 Steps and I worked for every one of them intentionally!
03/12 - 8,672 Steps.
03/13 -10,237 Steps chasing active grandson.
03/14 - 8,726
03/15 - 7,164 Steps. Still getting them from inside home.
03/16 - 7,546 Steps. Snow today. Grandson visiting other relatives so I will have to get those steps another way and not from chasing him! LOL.
03/17 – 11,857 Steps. That is what grandchildren will do to you sometimes LOL!
03/18 - 6,571 Steps. Surprised it wasn’t more!
03/19 - 7,835 Steps.
03/20 - 10,310 Steps. These came naturally with the babysitting and household tasks I had. I wish they came that easy every day.
03/21 - 9,876 Steps.
03/22 - 6,321 Steps. Travel and a long birthday party sitting.
03/23 - 11,841 Steps. Lots of Housecleaning!

✔Day1▪︎Tu•3/23- 215 (Mo/22- 7:30pm, hrs) 47g carbs Well, can't shake this 215. I can't stop eating bread and crackers, because I'm just not eating enough food. I just don't want to eat. Bread fills me up and I don't have to think about it. My joints aren't happy though. Lol. I'm not worried. I go through this cycle periodically. I think I reached 1400 calories once or twice this month. I can go all day without eating, except I gain weight when I don't eat. Not eating enough is a common thread with the women in my family. Anyway, I will correct it. I've gone back to having a green smoothie every day. Not a lot of calories, but they seem to help me give up the bread.

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.

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

@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 @GrandmaJackie2

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 145 (round 77 for me ) I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @GrandmaJackie and now @TerriRichardson112 thank you so enrich so many of our lives by keeping the challenge going.
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.
