    05/07 - 146.2 - Slow progress is still progress. Fasted 17 hours and had 90oz water. Took pup for a walk, checked in on my garden, and read. A lot of reading. Slept much better last night after I remembered to take my sleep supplements. So far, it seems to help a ton so long as I remember to take it.

    Previous Day's Comments
    05/02
    05/03 - I fasted 15 hours yesterday, which exceeded weekend goal. Today should be easy to hit 17hours. Drank over 90 oz (estimating about 100-105oz). Didn't do kickboxing workout last week at all so I'm making myself do it after this morning meeting whether I like it or not. I know I'll thank myself after. I'm weathering this storm. Need to get fasting back on track and regular. Need to focus on eating better. Weekends are always rough but I can control lunch this week and that should make an impact if I behave and stay mindful of goals.
    05/04 - My first thought was along the lines of "why do I even bother?!" as the scale didn't budge despite my efforts yesterday. Then I reminded myself that the scale doesn't always reflect what's really going on and I'm not worried so much about my weight as I am my health. Health first, weight is just a side effect of health. Fasted 18 hours, drank 100oz water and did not only my kickboxing workout, but a walk/run with the pup after! Food wasn't ideal for lunch but dinner was good! Been sleeping better since I've been using my herbal supplements (not melatonin!). Half a dose and I'm knocked out and feeling much more rested within an hour of waking up (disclaimer, I'm ALWAYS groggy/cranky and want to go back to bed when my alarm first goes off. But instead of being so for 2-3 hours, within an hour I'm pretty well awake and ready to go) May the Fourth be with you!
    05/05 - Starting to show a little progress. Feeling a tad bloated today so didn't expect a drop at all. 90 oz water, fasted 16hours. Got a walk in with the pup last night. Nothing major to report. Need to do some gardening today and head to the grocery store to stock up with more healthy lunch options.
    05/06 - Fasted just a few minutes shy of 19 hours, but only drank about 65oz water. My fault, I was distracted. Still happy to see a drop despite eating out last night. I was able to transplant all my plants to my raised garden bed, including my jalapenos which were still in the seed starter. I have green bell peppers and scotch bonnets still too little to transplant, but saved a little space for those guys. Got home when it was a tad too dark to take the crazy pup for a walk. I'd be more comfortable if she behaved better, but we are working on that. Slept horribly last night so don't know if I'll get my kickboxing workout in. Will try for yoga. Determined to make it a good day regardless of sleep!

    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!

    5/03 - 188 - 1632
    Rainy day. Yesterday was gorgeous, and I finished laying the stone pathway and started planting between & along the pavers (bare beginnings, but I’m really pleased with it). Picture this, filled with flowers!

    5/04 - 188.4 - 2036🤯😳☹️
    Aacckkkk! I don’t know what got into me yesterday. Why in the world does grappling with how much I’ve gained make me eat more, even as I think about not needing the food? The struggle is real. Well, it’s a new day, and I’m determined to get my act back together. I need to get on a regular walking schedule (though I am doing better). And off I go now, before the rain.

    5/05 - 188 - 1332
    🇲🇽🥑🌮🍊Feliz Cinco de Mayo! I’m considering chicken fajitas to celebrate, but no cerveza! Yesterday was a good food day but for the death by chocolate ice cream last night — but total calories low, so ok. I bought a bunch of plants, so I guess I’ll be out digging in the dirt in about 5 minutes! Have a lovely, healthful day!

    5/06 - 188.2 - 1732
    Chilly morning here, rain coming in. I don’t mind the rain — we need it — but I’m much happier with a little warmth! I don’t care for gardening in the cold. I guess I could clean the house... Nah!

    @CamandJarvis I’ve been having the log in problem intermittently for several weeks. It’s darn frustrating as is getting a notification at 11PM that I need to log in or lose my streak -particularly since I am here in the early morning IF I can get on! They need to get their ducks in a row!

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    **Comments and steps apply to previous day**

    SW 149 115.5
    5/2 115.0 Surprise! We had “Thai-Chinese” for lunch yesterday-NO RICE. Veggies and beef.
    5/3 115.5 I made and ate buttered popcorn last night.
    5/4 115.5 Donated blood yesterday. Forgot to take a healthy snack with me. Going to Outback with neighbor ladies for lun-net today. Haven’t been there in YEARS!
    5/5 116.0 Ate half of my small steak and half of my “loaded” baked potato. I was satisfied and not stuffed. I LOVE that the outside of the potato skin is covered in salt!
    5/6 116.5 Yesterday should have been my fasting day but I ate the leftovers from Tuesday.
    5/7 118.5 🤷‍♀️Greek salad with gyro and 1/2 pita - I ate the whole thing, it was all I ate all day. OMAD but 3rd high carb day in a row and up 3# in 3 days! I know it will go back down.

    Again, I couldn’t get into the community. I can update my weight, read the feed, but “we were unable to connect to the server to log you in.” #MFPsucks

    2: 200.2
    3: 201.4 Indulged in bacon ranch pasta salad with supper. There's a reason I don't eat pasta! 🤦🏽
    4: 200.4 Going back down. Hopefully, a little chocolate with lunch won't be an issue. 😕
    5: 198.3 Guess the chocolate didn't hurt. Long fast today. So far, so good.
    6: 195.3 Now, hopefully I can stay on the right track and keep it in the 190s for a bit, rather than climbing back over 200.
    7: 196.7 Post-fast rebound. No worries. Send to be the norm after getting for 36-40 hours. Hoping to stick to normal IF schedule over the next several days and keep calories and carbs at least mostly in check. With multiple sporting events for my kids and mother's day, I'm gonna be on the to a lot over the weekend.

    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.
    5/7 135 - Took DGS#1 (sick DGS's older 3 year old brother) out for the day, met DS & 2 year old DGD, we all played in the woods, “Stickman's” house, balanced on logs, chased them around on their balance bikes, helped them climb small trees, picnic'd on the lawn of Hardwick Hall and generally had fun with both!! A very satisfying enjoyable day. Just short of 5 miles walked, calories over, but no binging!exercise.png

    5/8 134.6 – 10.93 miles walked yesterday, did afternoon tea for SIL's birthday, hence Calories 101 over. (No binging though & did exercise some control over portions!) DGS slightly improved again.
    5/9
    5/10
    5/11



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

    😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
    May 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!

    Main goal(s) - 1. Count calories even when with partner/at social events, even if it’s not perfect an estimate is better than nothing! 2. Don’t allow a little slip up or not being able to track properly to derail me 3. Anything can be worked into your daily calorie goal

    5/3 - away - hi all apologies for not posting! I’ve been away for the weekend, I must admit I haven’t tracked very well but let’s see what the scales say (either tomorrow or the next day depending on timings)
    5/4 - away - back home now but haven’t weighed as I had already eaten before I got back. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!
    5/5 - 160.2 - very happy with this considering the indulgence of the weekend. Back on the band wagon :)
    5/6 - 160.2 - not bad as this was an early morning weigh again as I’m back at work. Ready to start moving in the right direction again!
    5/7 - 159.6 - delighted! It was my first day back at the gym yesterday too and it felt great ☺️
    5/8 - 159.0 - very very happy with this number! Hopeful to finish on a lower number than I started for this round again
