    @SheilaBoneham Have you tried getting on the scale with something heavy and then re-weighing? My scale did something wonky a couple of weeks ago and that straightened it out. Also, I noticed your posts appear to be dated January not April. 🤷‍♀️

    @quiltingjaine - true, you can't outrun the fork, but exercise does help my mind which in turn helps govern the food intake :-)

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 146 (round 78 for me ) I prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @GrandmaJackie thank you so enrich and support so many of our lives by keeping the challenge going.

    Female age 62 5' 4” - Challenge for this round; maintenance – get back to and stay at or >130 Get back to 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.

    04/01 132 – 12.89 miles walked yesterday, kept well in food calories & macros; pleased to say I'm back on track. Not sure if anyone is thinking of a challenge for April, but mine is to stay within calories for the whole of the month, that only 30 days and 3 rounds after all, I should be able to give that a really good go!

    Day/Weight/Comment

    04/02 132 - Car drive for just over an hour yesterday to meet up with DD & 2 little DGS; so excited to be able to see each other for the first time since Christmas Day. We had a wonderful time, managed only 5.63 miles walking, which means that I did not have any additional exercise calories and therefor my challenge to stay within calories & macros has failed on the very first day, was I the April Fool? Well, I've got the rest of the month to make a difference, it was such precious time spent with them all; DGS have both grown and developed so much, aged just over 1 and 3 in the many months we have been forced to not see them we have missed so much !! Now that we are allowed we are going to make up for missed time!! Seeing them again on both Saturday & Sunday together with DH! Also seeing DS, DIL & DGD! Lots of travelling as staying away overnight is not yet allowed, but who cares, family time is precious!!

    04/03 131 – 12.89 miles walked and food within calories & macros.
    04/04 132 - Only 4.85 miles walked so no exercise calories and therefore over on calories & macros, but I can make up for it later on in the week. Had an amazing day with the family yesterday and the sun came out too, take two today!! :):) Family time is even more precious than ever x.
    04/05 133 – Only 2.88 miles walked yesterday; another absolutely wonderful day with my family, cracking down today for the rest of the week/round.
    04/06 132 – 12.6 miles walked yesterday with DH in the lovely spring sunshine but with a keen cool wind, less than a quarter of exercise calories eaten back. A very good day food wise & feeling back on track.
    04/07 131.6 – 11.9 miles walked yesterday and just over half exercise calories taken back, another good day.
    04/08 132 – 10.35 miles walked yesterday
    04/09 133 – only 2.38 miles walked yesterday, drove up to take 3 year old DGS out for the day whilst DD took his youger brother to hospital out-patient appt.

    04/10 134.8 - no hugs needed;my own fault :( 10.57 miles walked. I am so ashamed to say I have had a bad run of days binging on chocolate, this has to stop now! I am so down on myself and only have myself to blame, so suffered during the night too with really bad calf cramps and I am sure it is related to the great excess of sugar, serves me right. OK lets get back on track. We're off away next week in our caravan for the week down to Devon & it will be my birthday, but I'm still going to endeavor to do my best. It's another big step in England's roadmap back to normality on Monday, non-essential shops opening, pubs & restaurants able to open and serve outside only & same households being able to stay away for nights in self contained accomodation hence us taking our touring caravan away!
    04/11


    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – we're all in this together!

    04/10 - 143.8 - Happy to see the number but don't expect it to stick around. Didn't get a break long enough to eat my pizza for dinner so saved it for lunch today. Ended up making a quick ham sandwich when I came home. Lunch was small, wasn't hungry, but very glad I had SOMETHING to hold me over. Drank 90oz water. Fasted 16hrs. Today will be a tad harder as we are on the motorcycles doing drills, but it'll be hot so I imagine we will have water breaks. Will have to be diligent. Fasting time will be dependent on when we break for lunch.

    Previous Day's Comments
    04/02 - I was scared to weigh today. We were up until 1am because we went and got me a motorcycle (we couldn't today or tomorrow and Sunday questionable so we sacrificed last night). Friend of friend is in school with GI Bill. Truck got totaled. Needed to sell what he could to save up for truck+insurance payout. I needed a bike that was good for me (BF's first bike fits me, but it is a bit too aggressive for me and I'm scared to ride it). Boom, a win-win. And his first bike is now with someone he can check in on (: We sold jetskis Sunday and BF had saved up some cash so we had it on hand. Whee!! Fasted 16hrs, 100oz water. Food was NOT very good yesterday and dinner was quite heavy as FamHub made it for us to try (I've had something similar, BF had not). If I'm able to squeeze in my 9Round today, it'll be tight in the afternoon. I have my 1 month PRK follow up today in town and with traffic, it's an hour and a half drive each way. Will try my best, but I'm not going to overwork myself after so little sleep. Hopefully I can behave enough today that yesterday's madness won't show on the scale in the coming days. Damage control mode: ON
    04/03 - Happy Countdown Day (4.3.21). Might as well be silly and fun (: It's rainy and gloomy here. I didn't track fasting or water yesterday, I was all over the place and it was impractical. I AM really shocked at a loss. I definitely expected a gain. First weigh in was 149 and it didn't seem too unrealistic. Stepped on 2 more times just in case and got 145.3 both times. THAT seemed more unrealistic haha I did NOT get my workout it, simply not enough time to squeeze it in. But I haven't cancelled my subscription (had to do that before midnight) so I'll have it at least another month.
    04/04 - Expected. Things catching up to me. Yesterday was madness, all over the place. Woke up with no plans. It was really rainy and gloomy so we decided to get out of the house and go to San Antonio. Got some hunting clothes for next season really cheap, stopped by for some food (mmm burger, that did me in though) and then SURPRISE. Crawfish boil/2 year old birthday party. Luckily the rain had stopped and it was outside so we were able to stay socially distanced and still enjoy. (@quiltingjaine I've noticed crawfish ALWAYS means a gain the next day. Not sure if its sodium or my body's natural reaction to it... Another note, my scale decided, initially, I was weighing in at 158.7... weighed two more times for 147.5. I'm getting a new scale next paycheck for sure. THAT is the biggest "gain" my scale tried to throw at me)
    04/05 - Easter dinner. Fasted 15.5hrs, not sure water (not enough). Slept like absolute crap last night and woke up at 4am. Will do my best to get my workout in, even if I don't go 100%, something is better than nothing. Dinner was early so should be fairly easy to fast 16+hrs today. Already working on my water. I WILL bounce back. I have a goal and a goal date approaching way too fast.
    04/06 - Weighed 3 times, all the same. Not sure if it is my scale being wonky or not. I do feel heavy this morning but can't determine exactly why. I DID take measurements, though, since it was such a weight jump. Either all the same or slightly (1/8th inch or so) smaller, which is a good sign. Scale isn't always the best way to track progress! Tracked calories yesterday and did have some weak moments but all in all, I didn't do too bad. I did manage to convince my sleepy self to work out and pushed harder than I thought I could manage. Weight could be DOMS (: Fasted 18.5hrs, 90oz water down the hatch. Still chuggin' along!
    04/07 - I'm going to go out on a limb and say yesterday's weight was due to my wonky scale. I just checked and it still shows my new scale arriving today. Fasted 16.5hrs, drank 90oz water. Super tired waking up, but feeling a bit better than Monday so should be able to force myself to start my workout. I know I'll feel better after if I get it done. I keep telling myself that the improvements will start showing soon as long as I keep going!
    04/08 - NEW SCALE YIPPEE! Woke up feeling a tad sore and a tad heavy in the middle so I'm shocked to see the scale is down. I did re-weigh when my scale came in yesterday to set it up (and even after drinking my water and coffee, it showed 146.4, same as old scale). It will take a few weigh ins to get things moving on the app and a trend to form. It's so much nicer and newer and prettier (am I really this excited for a scale?!) Anyway, fasted just over 18hrs. My fasting app is on the fritz now so I'm not entirely sure how I'm tracking. I do believe my fast ends at 1030-ish for 16hrs. 90oz water down yesterday and hoping for repeat of those today. Did manage to get my workout in yesterday and I went harder than I thought I was capable which was exciting (: Progress, even if it isn't scale-related.
    04/09 - I'm loving this new scale haha! I figured I'd be up since we had pizza last night. Then had to run to lowes to pick up an order. Came back still hungry and finished off the garlic bites we had. If I manage to fast until noon, I'll hit 15hrs today. I'm alright with that. Fasted just over 18hrs yesterday. Drank 90 oz water. Hopefully I can do the same today. Leftover pizza for dinner since I'm taking my Basic Rider Course classroom portion from 5-9pm. Need to figure out lunch for tomorrow and Sunday since they are both 8-5. Says they provide snacks and water/juice but I'd rather bring something for lunch. Especially if they release us to eat or anything. I'm not familiar with the area, just easier to eat what I bring. Finished my workout already this morning. Couldn't sleep. Workout definitely woke me up more so we will see how hard I crash later haha. I got 2 days to reach my goal and only 0.6lbs to get there. I'm holding on a bit of hope I can pull it off.
