Round 149
2 May - 12 May, 2021
Please join us! Starting on 5/2 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 148
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.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 149 (round 81 for me ) I prove time after time that I need this tol help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.
Female age 63 5' 4” - Challenge again for this round; need to continue to get back to maintenance weight– get back to and stay at or >130. 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 in roadmap to normality for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – I've had my first, spread positivity and encouragement for it to others.

60+ age
SW 4/4/21 155 lbs.
Long Term Goal 135
Short Term Goal 139 by mid May 2021
Method = calorie counting, avoid sugar.
I round off my weight to the higher pound (I don't chart half pounds, etc.)
My short term goal of 139 by mid May is likely too aggressive, so if I can't accomplish it, I won't be worked up about it. I am being careful to not overly short my calories.
Round 148 = 2 lb (it was my first round)

Start weight for 149 challenge: 308.9 lbs
Aim for 11 May 2021 (end of 149 challenge): 306.9 lbs
5/2: 307.1 lbs - bit of a surprise to have lotst this weight, but I'll take it! It's a good start to this challenge for sure.

My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of gaining, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

We had Indian carry out yesterday — yummy, but a bit salty & caloric. Also raisin bread French toast for breakfast before I knew we’d be ordering, so.... I didn’t get my walk yesterday — by the time I finished digging in my new stone path, the wind had come up and it wasn’t very nice out, so I decided my digging and lifting would have to do. It’s lovely today, though, so I’m off in a few minutes for a walk by the river and then I’ll plant the few plants I have waiting. I see a big nursery trip or three in my future! I also ordered a bunch of native plants from the Botanical Conservatory sale and get to pick them up on Thursday. Yay! My garden is definitely one of my happy places.🌷🌻🦋🌹🌼🐞🌳 Also keeps me out of the kitchen. Have a lovely Sunday, all!
