    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ Round 149 (round 81 for me ) I prove time after time that I need this to 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.

    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 achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    5/2 132.4 - 12.33 miles walked yesterday in the glorious Derbyshire dales, calories under.
    5/3 133 - picked up 3 year old DGS for the day, Managed to get out for a walk after we took him home, 5.97 miles in total. Calories 200 over.
    5/4 134.2 – no walking yesterday as travelling back from Derbyshire Dales and heavy rain when we got home hence calories over (I have a cold & want to keep feeding it!!). Happy Star Wars day for all fans (May the 4th be with you) !!!
    5/5 136.4 – uhgh!! still feeding that cold and feeding frenzy/comfort eating whilst 15 month old DGS seriously ill, back in transplant hospital with pneumonia & serious abdominal virus too, so worried about him & DD, she is exhausted. Must stop this ridiculous shoveling of wrong foods into my face; it will not help, I need to be strong (& healthy) to support them both even if it can only be at the end of the 'phone due to the pandemic & by taking his 3 year old elder brother out on his non nursery days. Also funeral of 94 year old aunt today. 8.4 miles walked yesterday.
    5/6 135.8 - 10.74 miles walked yesterday. Back on track & behaving myself, calories under.
    5/7
    5/8
    5/9
    5/10

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

    @quiltingjaine - Many thanks for setting up the new round.
    😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
    April 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
    [/color]
    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!

    @ZizzyBumble - hang in there, dear girl. You are doing fine. As you say, it’s the trend that is important.
    @tiabirdie56 - so many people are having problems at the minute. My diary hasn’t been posted for nearly a week. Very frustrating
