5/25 - 146 - I hope this is the end of the weekend bounce. I did well on eating and water yesterday.
5/26 - 145 - Glad to see I'm down a little bit. I've got to watch my eating and activity the next couple days to get ready for the holiday weekend. My extended family has been vaccinated and we'll be having picnics over the weekend to celebrate.

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 4. Use this challenge to identify problem habits/patterns and change them

5/23 - 162.4 - half expected this as I didn’t think yesterday’s weight was a true reflection (water/food weight etc) but very happy ☺️
5/24 - 162.0 - very pleased!

5/26 - 147.0 - I feel about 10lbs lighter and look better now that bloating is gone, but the scale doesn't budge much. Oh well. I'm more worried about how I look and feel I suppose. Fasted 17 hours, drank 95oz water, and under calories. Did my kickboxing workout, a mini booty blaster, and then took the pup for a very short lunch walk (it was hot out and stuck to the shade for her paws which limited my available distance). Don't feel overly sore, but doesn't mean I don't have some water retention in my muscles contributing to weight.

Previous Day's CommentsSpoiler5/22 - Expected with a late dinner, not a big deal. Fasted 15.5 hours, 60oz water. Not ideal. Behind on water today as well since we went out to the land trying to beat the rain (didn't work, starting downpouring as soon as we made it out there). Hoping catch up on that, though may not be able to hit the full 90 today. Also had McDonald's for lunch since I hadn't eaten yet and it was a bit of a rush to get out the door once BF was up and moving and didn't want to waste precious time cooking. His idea, but I WAS hungry. Oh well, dinner is steak and figuring out sides between us now (I'm definitely making veggies).
5/23 - Sodium? BF made homemade beef lo mein and although I bought the low sodium stuff, who knows how much salt he added. Didn't taste salty at all. Suppose it could be DOMS, too. I'm feeling super sore in glutes and hammies. Was over calories by 200, but still in slight deficit. Fasted 17.5 hours, ended up drinking the full 90oz after all.
5/24 - I'm actually shocked by this. Ended up eating out yesterday for lunch since we were searching for a part in the next town over. Put me way over calories and only ended up having a snack for dinner. I wasn't too hungry anyway. Fasted 15.5 hours, drank 90oz water.
5/25 - I'm alright with slow, so long as it keeps going down.... Only fasted 14.5 hours, but I was very hungry. Considering I only had a "snack" for dinner the night before, it makes perfect sense and I was alright with cutting my fast short. Today will be better since dinner was so early. Homemade chicken alfredo with homemade garlic bread (well, I bought the bread, but made it into garlic bread.... Didn't have time to make my own bread). 90 oz water down the hatch! Today is supposed to be cloudy, but no rain so I'm going to try to take the pup for a walk later.

5/22: 192.0 (walked/hiked over 2 hours yesterday; learned the hard way that ticks can survive a shampoo; raining today but still plan to do day 2 week 1 of C25k)
5/23 - 192.0 (got medium walk in this morning before the rain returned)
5/24 - 191.5 (sunshine at last! Woods walk in my afternoon! Ordered a new sleeping bag for my little camping adventures, as my old holofill bag from the late 1980s seems to have lost its warmth. I can't go too far because I have horses and poultry, dogs and cats, and nobody I trust to look after them in my absence. But I have found several very nice little camping spots within 1-2 hour's walk of my place, and the rest of my backpacking gear is awesome.)
5/25 - 191.0 (brilliant day out there; off on another long walk today; cool + sunny + breezy = no blackflies (hopefully); repeating week 1 of C25k and it was actually easier than it was last week when I started it; I think it's a good idea if I take my time with this; Delila the hen is determined to hatch out a nest though I keep removing the eggs; as the three roosters are her brothers and her father, I think it's probably a bad idea and I don't need more roosters and I don't eat eggs so it's just a bad all-round idea, as I keep explaining to her)
5/26 - 191.0 (looks like rain out there, and I'm off to the dentist shortly; hopefully any rain will blow over before the afternoon so that I can go out and have a walk in the woods with the blackflies and ticks (and my dogs). Also plan another week 1 episode of C25K. My ultimate plan is to be able to run the 5km race on campus in mid October, in about 30 minutes. Of course, that race might be canceled again this year because of covid. I haven't run it in years. I used to challenge my students: if they could beat me, I'd give them a bonus mark on their semester. Would they make us run it in masks I wonder? Last time I ran it, I came in 59th out of 100 runners, and when another university employee asked how I did and I told her (I was kinda proud and had beat my students), she looked sympathetic and said "never mind; you'll do better next year." What a way to rain on my parade!

Round 151
Goals: 80oz water each day; row 30 mins 7 of 10 days; eat vegetables/fruit; 1200 to 1500 calories; IF most days; no sugar - and if I do all these things, I hope to be back into the 170's!

5/23 - 180.2 - I've been hanging out at 181 for long enough. It was time for a drop. Looks promising to hit 170's this round!
5/24 - 180.0 - The scale was messing with me this morning when it blinked for a second on 179.9, but settled on 180.0 - I'll take it!
5/25 - 179.1 - Goodbye 180's!!
5/26 - 179.1 - Glad this weight stuck around. I'm doing really well rowing, staying within my calorie range (no bingeing!), drinking water, IF and not eating sugar - so happy for all of this. What I'm not doing as well as I could is getting enough vegetables and fruit that I need to be healthy. I WILL do better!

@Kirk_mfp (feel free to add me!)
40s male, 6'0"
SW: 300.2 pounds
GW: 210.0 pounds
My approach: Move and lift more, keep track of my food, and drink lots of water.
5/22: 300.2 - Newbie here. And holy cow, this is the heaviest I've ever been. Not only have I gained unnecessary weight, but I haven't been accomplishing things inside and outside the home like I have in the past. The garage is turning into a disaster, dishes piling up, etc. Today is the day I turn around and actively update the foods I eat and the exercises I do. My favorite quote for the day: “Most things in life are not so difficult. You just have to work to keep them simple. If you’re truly determined, there is no limit to what you can accomplish.”
5/23: 298.6 - Down 1.6 pounds. Water weight for sure but I'll take any win. I stuck with eating veggies, chicken, and some other meats. I was craving something sugary and carby around 6pm and I must admit, it was a struggle. I was able to do a lot of things around the house like install shower doors and clean throughout the house, just like I was hoping. Things are looking positive and I'm excited for that.
5/24: 296.0 - Down 2.6 pounds. I'm still going strong as far as eating low carbs and sticking with meat and salad. I did get the chills in the middle of the night for a few hours and wonder if that's having to do with sugar with-drawls (the keto flu). Also I'm taking a gout pill here and there, just in case my body feels that protein shock. Gout in the foot is no fun for sure. Well, it's another work week and I plan on sipping on unsweetened almond milk throughout each day and then having a good dinner.
5/25: 295.0 - Down 1.0 pound. Another work day completed at the office. Lots of water had been consumed, lots of good healthy foods too. That was the first evening I haven't felt like chowing down on chips. I haven't exercised yet but maybe that'll wait. We'll see. My focus is on "calories in" right now.
5/26: 293.2 - Down 1.8 pounds. I'm so glad to have this community for my accountability. Seriously, I enjoy reading your inspiring stories and it helps me greatly. Yesterday was more healthy eating and I feel like I'm getting my energy back even though I'm hungry most of the time.

R150 Goals-168 limit alcohol, lots of water. Thank you @quiltingjaine for setting up the round!
5/22-168-Lots of weed eating and digging in the yard. More digging today; I’m getting flower beds ready to plant.
**********Happy Saturday everyone!!!🌸☕️*************
5/23-167-More digging in the yard. Helped DH clean out a trench. Later I met with my card club and I kept getting leg craps and had to stand up; it was funny..all from yard work. I sprouted a bunch of flower seeds this spring and will get to transplant them into my pollinator garden in front of my sewing room windows today!
5/24-DNW-After church, we ate breakfast out for the first time in ages. Got 80% of the seedlings transplanted. Will plant the rest today and do some weed eating and more digging to prep the other flower beds ready.
5/25-169-Heavy food. Lots of yard work.
5/26-DNW-Bad food choices yesterday. Today will be better.11 -
Thanks to Molly and Grandma Jackie for introducing me to this challenge. I appreciate how everyone is dedicated to self improvement and support.

I've been gone about ten rounds I think. It took me awhile to find you folks again but I'm trying to get back here as often as possible.
I've reset my start weight to the beginning of 2021 after seeing how stagnant I've been over the last few years. Actual YEARS of no real progress is simply shameful.
My mini goals NEED to include scale victories. Everything else goes hand in hand with the scale.
5/26 166.6lbs
I began the day just fine but blew everything with a fast food delivery dinner. I ate too much of the wrong stuff. Screwing myself over after ensuring I have only the right stuff on hand is becoming a trend with me.
This is what happens when I don't meal prep in advance. Cooking daily is not my thing and I haven't prepped well in far too long. However, if I get back to strict protein sparing fast level carbs I'll recover quickly. My goals for this round are still within reach.
It's nice to skim through the thread and see how everyone is doing. Health and nutrition are our common ground but we are whole persons with varied lives first. Many threads forget this.

Yesterday was a weird food day. Started with egg, Asiago-cheddar, Canadian bacon on whole grain English muffins. A friend came over and we sat outside nibbling nuts, dates, and cherries. Then I made grilled ham & cheese with tomato sandwiches for lunch, which I hadn’t planned to feed her so needed something quick. I didn’t feel like dinner, but had some ice cream later. Even so, low calories.

My first time in front of the google-box since last Friday. So, I have the three days to report here. What you see is a testimony to the care-free weekend I had.
Business lunch out Friday; Out for dinner Friday night with neighbors to thank them for mowing the yard while we were on vacation. All of it a salt and oil fest. Saturday was a day without any thought given to correcting Friday’s wrongs. Sunday was a nice family get together after more than a year of no-contact. Dad cooked on the grill (ribs, salmon) and everyone brought their standards. I was waving the white flag from my recliner before bedtime.
Speaking of recliner, that was my perch for watching the Formula-1 race, the PGA golf tournament, and the Cubs in-10 over the Cardinals. So much for exercise. And, it might be TMI to tell you just about everything I ate is still being carried around like cargo.
There, I confessed it all. Time to buckle down for the week.
5/25: 210.8
Kept things down to a dull roar yesterday calorie-wise. The thing I notice is how crummy I feel after an indulgent weekend. Food for thought. Pardon the pun (not really a pun.)
On another note, has anyone else noticed the spike in cost for certain things? I am doing to basement remodeling, and the cost of wood is through the roof. Painter tells me paint is affected.
5/26: 208.8
This is the result of some eating well and my SPRINT class last night. (and I even forgot to log the frappe I drank yesterday afternoon at an informal meeting.) I am bracing for a jump up in the coming days. That is just how I roll.
The good news is that these minor highs and lows don’t play a significant role in my NSV’s such as how my clothes fit and other things. It is nice to actually be able to wear size “L” in some types of clothing, instead of “XL.”
It is such a pay-off to be paying attention…
I should do it more. 😊
Hoping I used the proper spellings for role & roll above. What do you think @SheilaBoneham , our resident author? For some reason I always think of you grading me when I lay-down my grammar messes. 😊

Previous days5/26 117.6 Started my day with a 20 minute spin bike workout and got a 2 mile walk in during my lunch. Not completely sure what dinner will end up being except that it will consist of ground turkey, cremini mushrooms, and potatoes of some sort with spinach on the side or mixed in maybe. It’ll be an experimental dinner lol.Spoiler5/22 Ended up having Chinese food for dinner last night but didn’t gorge myself on it. Had a dinner combo of a few chicken fingers, 3 crab Rangoon, 2 beef teriyaki and about a cup of rice. We ate early last night and I woke up not feeling puffy, so I’m feeling ok about it. Today has been a touch better too, I had a yogurt with fresh pineapple for breakfast, spinach and a left over tikka masala chicken thigh plus a sticky rice dessert with mango for lunch (because my husband wanted Thai for his breakfast today and sticky rice sounded good), and dinner will be a chopped salad with CSA asparagus, radishes, cucumber, carrots and 2 oz of local feta cheese. We’re going to a soccer game tonight, so I plan on getting a soft pretzel for a snack at half time too (that’s why my dinner is only a salad). Looking forward to not over doing it this weekend!
5/23 Did not post. Had a good day though.
5/24 117.4 It’s always so interesting to see how weight can shift so much. Woke up feeling good this morning and did 30 minutes on the spin bike and plan on going for a walk at lunch too. Yesterday was decent food wise and my husband and I went for a walk at a local nature reservation area/wildlife sanctuary. This morning, I made pancakes from a buckwheat pancake mix…I’m realizing that pancakes are not a good work day breakfast because now I’m feeling sleepy from the pancakes I think. Dinner tonight will be left over Italian lamb meat balls with whole wheat spaghetti, tomato sauce and spinach on the side/or mixed in with pasta.
Yesterday I ordered two new bathing suits for our vacation at the end of June… when they arrive, I want to leave them out in plain sight to remind myself of a reason to stay on track. Getting to 114 before the end of June would be fantastic but not sure how realistic that is for me. We shall see. For me, I think it would take not getting any take out on the weekends and being super diligent…
5/25 117.2 This 117 number is sticking around due to where I am in my cycle. Started my day with a 3 mile run and felt really good afterwards. I plan on going for my walk later today as well. Tacos are on the agenda for dinner tonight with a radish and carrot slaw to go on top.

Hopefully prices will come down after supply exceeds demand...
I hope it does! We were supposed to renovate my inlaws basement and turn it into a full apartment but stopped the project because it was going to cost 125k versus the 50-70k we were initially planning. So, now we are going to wait a bit and see where my husband gets a job after he finishes up his internship. Then possibly look into an inlaw addition instead of a basement reno.
Good luck with the work being done on your house!4 -
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
May focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:JGM10D ~|~ Round 151Spoiler2021 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
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.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!Spoiler- 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/21 …..209.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
05/22 …..209.6 ….. Good luck everyone one this round. Let’s make it a beautiful one!
05/23 …..210.8 ….. Banana nut bread with choco chips. I went back for another piece last night. The carbs really need to go but I just don’t know how to swing that with my daughter and DGS here. I’ve got to get this figured out and get moving on something before my next doctor appointment or I’ll be put on insulin shots! I’ve got to let that be my inspiration right now!
05/24 …..210.8 ….. Little to no movement due to my schedule yesterday. Eating……so-so. Traveling today so dinner will be out.
05/25 …..209.8 ….. Kept the lunch light yesterday while out of town. I had a very light dinner. I also slept over 5 hours last night (which is good for me). I think all of this helped.
05/26 …..208.6 ….. I’m very pleased to be down 1.2 but I honestly don’t know how it happened. My meals were actually low cal and on the low carb side with good ingredient choices. But there was that dessert my daughter brought in from the little bakery north of town. The choices are always mine. It wasn’t a good one. I was up all night sick to my stomach from the extreme sugar content of it (all). Lesson learned. But I’ll take the 1.2 pound loss !

Round 151
UGW = 134
Round Goals: Run 3-4 x week, Strength/Mobility Train 3 x week, 80+ oz. water daily, Lose 1.5 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
5/22: 176.7 So happy it is the weekend! On tap for today is a run outside before it gets to hot (going to hit the 90s today for the 1st time this year) + need to make up a strength session I missed earlier in the week. Hoping to also be AF all weekend but we'll see how that goes.
5/23:176.5 Really good run yesterday, felt strong during it and it's been a while since that has happened, so think I might be finally getting back to good running form! Right after my run when to work in the garden for over an hour right when the heat was rising. I had water with me to sip but by the time I was finished I was worn out by the heat, so just took it easy the rest of the day. Today is a planned recovery today, so will be foam rolling & stretching only.
5/24:176.3 Nice family day to end the weekend yesterday. I had meal planned for the day and pre-logged the dinner recipe I was making but then my daughter had a really trying time over a school assignment that wasn't going well, so we scratched that plan and went out to pick up a pizza to give her a little boost. I kept myself to 2 pieces & am happy that I can enjoy something in moderation now that before could cause a binge. Busy day today, but need to make myself a priority and get my run in on my lunch hour.
5/25: 176.3 Super hungry after my run yesterday, so went a little bit over calories for dinner. Not too worried about that. Felt a little calf issue on my run yesterday and now this morning when I woke up, so need to make sure there is time for foam rolling today before my workout. It's a cross training day, not sure what I want to do yet. But thinking maybe yoga, so should be a lighter calorie day as well.
5/26: 176.3 Think I'm retaining some water due to sore muscles, still dealing with some minor calf issues but that's what forgetting my magnesium tablets and daily banana will do. Need to be better with those. Got my run in today on my lunch hour, so hot and humid but glad it is done! Expecting a big storm tonight, so hopefully that will cool things off for at least a little bit.
