I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Not close to a screen this weekend, so I am catching up with the last three entries. This number would have been larger if not for 3 hours of shooting sporting clays on Saturday under a boiling sun. I am sure some evaporation happened. 😊
It is Flag Day here in the U.S.! I am flying the colors!
6/15: 211.0
Starting to plan for the weekend. DW’s family reunion weekend, which includes a postponed Saturday funeral for an aunt who died in January; The actual reunion picnic on Saturday night; and we are hosting a party Friday night for DW’s cousins (25 of us all in our 50’s -70’s.) I will be smoking some pork shoulder for pulled pork sandwiches.
All of it centered around food. I am sure I will not feel the slightest hunger pang for three days.
6/16: 211.2
Gigantic salty burrito lunch with chips, beans, rice yesterday. Spinning class helped stem the damage.
6/17: 210.4
Ate more reasonably. No exercise.
I did watch my DGS (age, just 4) play some soccer at the Park District league last night. Monday night it was baseball. Both are under the same sign-up. It gives them a taste of each. His team is called the Purple Platypie (platypuses). Purple shirt.
The whole experience for me is like watching a goldfish swim around a fishbowl while I try to direct his movements with my mind. Except I love the goldfish dearly. A lot of running around in circles, talking with new friends, hopping around, striking a Captain Morgan-like pose with his foot on the ball, and laying on the grass with his feet in the air. He had a blast. Me too.

6/12 209.2 I'm visiting relatives through the end of the month & my sister in law's scale is wonkie. It said 208.2, then the next two times AFTER going to the RR 209.2 Somewhere in the range. I'm happy to see the downward trend. -70 total. My body is still in recovery following that treacherous bout in the river...hours of repetitive arm motion caused muscle pain & general fatigue. I chilled yesterday. They say three days after an accident, you feel worse, so today's that day. Gentle stretches, and eating well are on my agenda. Resting & grateful for being alive.
6/13 209.2 close to that 208 goal.
6/14 211 Celebration last night w/ lots of food & wine. Hopefully I can re-lose some of that weight. Guess I should earn from this experiment in deviation from my food plan.
6/15 209.8 Happy to see the Sun night partying weight come off. Still a pound up from my lowest weight from last week. Oh well, onward ho!

I'm Mike. I am here for the happy hour specials. Slowly chipping away at weight. HW was 252, GW is 200.
6/11 236.1. Finished last round with a nice down trend and so of course I get to start this round with an up-bounce. Lots of sodium for dinner (meat lovers pizza) and a beer. I'll get that tended to quickly.
6/12 236.1. The struggle is eternal.
6/13 travel day
6/14 travel day
6/15 236.0. Again, decent weekend management on net. But my blood sugar was very high this morning. That suggests that what I am eating is not calorie-massive but relatively high in carbs. (The other explanation would be that I am getting a lot of exercise in the car but come on....) Time for a walk if I can get caught up at work by lunch time.
6/16 235.2. Blood sugar....194. I stared at the meter in disbelief, thought back to last night. A light dinner, no snacking. WTF? Then it hit me.... for the first time in probably a decade, I had simply forgotten to take my insulin last night. STUPID. And a 194 reading in the morning means it was likely over 300 overnight. I am only alive in 2021 because I agreed to a bargain with modern chemistry -- I eat right and inject a chemical cocktail into my body several times a day, and in exchange I get to live longer. I wonder how many brain cells, kidney cells, liver cells, heart cells, retina cells died last night because I failed to hold up my end of the bargain? GOT to do better. Weight is irrelevant compared to blood sugar management. Come on Michael, we are better than this.
6/17 234.8; MBS 133. Back on track. I am not happy with myself, overall. This round has been spent reclaiming ground I had already covered. As the Wise Woman says, there are good rounds and bad rounds. I just wish I was not quite so VERY round.
6/18 234.8; MBS 154. Thanks for being here, everyone. Seeing your posts about your successes and challenges is always a source of inspiration.

I am going to avoid a certain 2 hayfields (it's entirely possible, with a detour) and further test my theory today (had only 3 ticks yesterday). Let's see if I end up with a lot fewer ticks again today! Also, thanks for worrying about me and the deer. There are just a few stretches of woods where I can't see very far ahead so I don't have to sing too much (I sang "100 bottles of beer on a wall" as loudly as I could and thumped any nearby trees with my walking stick; the dogs were completely bewildered; they're both rescues but I guess I've had them long enough so that they realize that I'm not about to lay a beating on them so whacking trees didn't scare them)11 -

6/14-218.6 I lost a lot of weight last year and gained it all back. I need to get back on it
6/15-217 - I expected a big drop but not this since it was my first day working out like crazy and rally watching what I eat. I expect it to level out the next few days.
6/16- 215.2 - I was at the water park all day with my kids and only ate once since we were so busy and to top it off had a sand volleyball game after.
6/17- 214.6 - still sticking with it!

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 a heavier weight, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

Off to do some weight training — laying brick edging in my gardens. 😁

Happy Saturday!
6/13 - 189 - 1622
I’m so tempted to go back to the very low calorie level I was eating three years ago for dietitian- prescribed elimination diet. I lost weight fast, but I know that’s what screwed up my metabolism and got me at least partly to where I am now. Maybe a week on, week off? I’m fed up, so to speak. Happy for those of you who are doing better!
6/14 - 188.8 - 1777
It’s a gorgeous morning here. I’m torn between digging in the edging on my gardens or heading out for a long walk along the river. Hmmm. Maybe edging this morning, walk this afternoon. As long as I’m outdoors, I’m happy!

It’s a gorgeous, cloudless morning here, and as soon as I finish my coffee I’m off for a walk by the river and a (possibly) final run to my fav nursery before they close for the season. Here’s part of me view from my patio this morning.

6/12: 173.9 Still holding steady at this weight, hoping for a drop tomorrow! Menu planning today for next week.
6/13: 173.7 Super busy day yesterday, so was OMAD, not eating until 7:30 p.m. & then enjoyed some wine with my husband in the evening. Happy to say I did not get into any late night snacks after drinking, which is a big win!!
6/14: 173.6 New week, feeling very motivated! Last night with dinner, I had a salad from our small vegetable garden, the lettuce is the 1st "harvest", still waiting for everything else to be ready to picked. On plan for today is a full body strength workout.
6/15: DNW Absentmindedly drank water right when I woke up, so skipped the scale for that reason
6/16: 173.2 Delicious dinner last night with lettuce and herbs from our garden, + 1 mojito (got to use that mint!)
6/17: 172.9 The 1st Kale from the garden was ready yesterday, used it for my morning green smoothie. Need to be better with drinking water today, still under goal on that.

5/10: 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)
Round 153
Goals: Above all, patience - don't think any further than 10 days at a time!
80oz water; row 30 mins, most days; free-weights; eat vegetables/fruit; 1200 to 1500 calories; IF most days; no sugar; temporary elimination of wheat
SW: 176.4
Previous posts6/11 - 176.3 NSV: I've worked from home for over 20 years and have lived in sweat pants way too much and also allows for weight to creep up without realizing it. Today it was cooler and I put them on and they were loose. You know something is going right when your elastic waisted pants are getting bigger! LOL
6/12 - 175.9 - I had to check myself this morning for the past few days. I was starting to swap wheat products for corn products. My slim and can-eat-only-one-cookie husband is also temporarily eliminating wheat and he decided maybe nacho corn chips would replace his pretzels for a while. Well, he eats 2 chips and says, yuk, these are too greasy and salty and doesn't eat any more. Well, you know how that story ends...I step in and eat them all, but the good news is I was able to spread them out over a few days where the old me would have eaten the entire bag, and eaten everything else in the house because I felt like I "blew" it. The same with popcorn, I wasn't sticking to 1 serving (and too much butter and salt), so, I was ending up within my calorie range but with 700 of my calories from chips and popcorn and shaky and starving. And it felt like I was slipping toward a full-fledge binge. Chips are now gone and going back to "my plan" that has been working and why I have been feeling so good!! I even noticed my ankles were starting to swell again. BTW, my sweet husband said he shouldn't have bought them instead of thinking I should have been able to handle it. He knows my problem and is so supportive.
Thank you for letting me air this out here, it helps so much!!
6/13 - 175.4 weighed later than usual so we'll see if it sticks around tomorrow
6/14 - 175.6 VERY happy with this weight this morning! I weighed at my usual time and still mid 175's. I think I can say I'm solidly there even if it jumps around for a few days - YAY!
6/15 - 175.3 Increased my calories yesterday and going forward. A problem I NEVER have had is too few calories. However, temporarily eliminating wheat (not all carbs, just wheat - I still eat potatoes, oatmeal, etc.,) and milk for the first time, and the fact I'm never hungry in the mornings and stop eating by 6p each day, (AND I got rid of the corn chips
), my calories are lower than they need to be, especially on the days I row/free-weights. A better problem to have than the way I used to be starving by the end of the day, but too few calories is not a healthy way to lose it either.
6/16 - 175.3 couldn't sleep so got up early and rowed. It's such a beautiful morning - in the upper 50's and sunny.

@jasmind3903 I have found that it can take 2-3 days for what I have eaten (or not) to be reflected on the scale. Be patient, track accurately, and find your pattern and what affects you.4

@quiltingjaine What a beautiful family you have. I believe I read that it had been 13 years since everyone was together. I'm sure that made the day even more special. And wow, you and your husband look like one of the younger generations, you BOTH are soooo fit!5

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.

6/11 115.0 Honestly, I’m surprised. I was sick and lost my dinner last night and this morning my FBS was the highest it’s ever been - 113. I guess I’ll see what tomorrow brings. Throbbing headache so not looking at the message board yet.
6/12 113.5 Pretty much fasted yesterday as I was barely awake. 5 saltines and 1/2 slice of toast, seltzer, Coke Zero (for caffeine,) and water. I seem to have recovered. I’ve been up almost 2 hours and still working on first mug of coffee.😊 Feeling almost like myself again and I’m hungry but hungry for weird stuff that should probably not be put in a recently upset tummy!
6/13 115.5 Totally expected since I’m sure I was dehydrated after “losing my lunch” on Thursday night. Neighbor made Filipino food for the one meal I ate yesterday but I really didn’t eat much. I drank 2 20 oz Powerade Zeros, a liter of tonic water with some True Lime, and at least 3 30 oz glasses of water.
6/14 116.0 Great Greek for lunch yesterday. Ate 1/2 of my salad and gyro meat and 1/2 pita. It’s all good. After both of us having some stomach bug in the last few days, I’m skipping water fitness today.
6/15 116.0 Finished my salad and gyro but have had no TMI since Friday.
6/16 116.0 Surprised, Chinese buffet for the first time since before COVID. Not as good as it used to be and limited selection.
6/17 115.5
❤️Thank you all for the lovely remarks about our family picture. It makes me so happy that I cry every time I look at it! ❤️9 -
Day/Weight/Comment
6/11--220.4 Worked out with trainer today.
6/12--218.9 Not surprised with the big drop, stomach was bothering me yesterday, so I didn't eat a lot. Plan today is to go out and do some trail walking with the puppy, may throw in a couple of running intervals. Planning to bbq some chicken today before it starts to rain.
6/13--217.3 Another really light day of eating yesterday because of my stomach, but my stomach feels so much better today and my weight will probably be up tomorrow. My hubby is having friends over today, first time since the shut down last year, so they will be in the basement playing games. I took the dog out for a walk before it started raining today, so I will be doing some things around the house upstairs.
6/I4--217.5 Stomach felt good yesterday and ate at my calorie goals. Today is trainer day.
6/15--217.8
6/16--217.8 Weight is holding steady. Yesterday was physical therapy day. I've taken the dog out for a walk this morning and plan to do some circuit training in my gym today. Hubby and I also have to pick up our new lawn mower. We had let our lawn get so out of control over the last couple of months, we didn't have a lawn mower, that we had to hire someone about 2 weeks ago to come by and landscape it. So, we just purchased a new lawn mower so that the lawn stays under control. This fall we are going to plant a grass lawn replacement which will keep our mowing down to a minimum.
6/17--217.3 Went out for a bike ride yesterday, I haven't taken the bike out in over a year. The weather was perfect and since it's stays lighter outside much later this time of year, I was able to go out for a ride at 8:30pm and there was hardly any traffic on the roads. It was a lot of fun. Going into the office for a couple of hours today, so I will have to bring my lunch with me, it is so strange to have to think about what to carry to work for lunch after working from home for such a long time.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/10 …..203.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/11 …..203.2 ….. The carry-out for a quick late dinner was horrible. I literally threw away 80% of it and I am proud that this old gal who grew up pretty poor (never waste food!) put it in the trash can and moved on with some cold water and a good TV program. A non-scale victory for sure! Good luck everyone this round. Let’s make the most of these next 10 days together!
06/12 …..205.2 ….. A big gain. Thai food within calories but no TMI. Probably some water retention as well.
06/13 …..203.4 ….. Back to the 203’s after TMI cooperated. I’m grateful yesterday’s weight was not permanent. Handyman here today to do some gardening that is difficult for me. My internet was down yesterday most of the day until 8:00 this morn. 2nd time this week. I’ll be doing lots of sitting catching up on paperwork. I will try to get in as many step breaks as possible.
06/14 …..201.8 ….. Yay! Lower than I’ve been since before Covid shut-downs March 2020. I must admit it was about an 800 calorie day yesterday. It was hot and I just didn’t feel like eating. I ended up throwing out about 80% of my low cal/low carb dinner. Today I will increase the calories and carbs (an uptick is on the horizon for tomorrow?) but will make all healthy choices so It’s not empty calories. Lets hope I can keep this ball rolling!
06/15 …..202.0 ….. Just the slight uptick I was expecting when getting my calories back in order. I am thrilled this lower weight is sticking around. I am traveling today so there will be less movement and more calories (restaurant dinner) but I am not about to lose my sight on Onederland. I am feeling pretty proud of myself right now.
06/16 …..203.4 ….. After travel weight. Disappointed that the trip took longer than anticipated and that I ate two pretty large meals out. NSV was that I didn’t stuff myself and left 25% on my plate both times. Taking it in stride and planning an extra low calorie meal today with extra movement and lots of water. This weight loss with be achieved in with a triumphant attitude, not one of defeat. Who’s with me?
06/17 …..202.8 ….. Just staying honest here. Last night was less than perfect. I kept my calories in my meals low, as planned, but probably too low. Too hungry last night and bad snacks were involved. I ended up doing a bit of dancing to off-set it even though I was so tired. Luckily my meal calories and carbs were good so there was still a ½ pound drop on the scale. It’s a learning process. Today, a few more calories in the meals should take care of the nighttime hunger. A better planned snack is on the menu if needed.

Ultimate GW: 178lb
Day/Weight/Comment
06/11 - 212lb. Ate late again last night, plus gym session and not enough water will probably be the reason for the gain.
06/12 - 211.8lb. Managed a 9K run today and feel pretty good because of it.
06/13 - 211.8lb. Frustrated the scale isn’t moving- hopefully it will come.
06/14 - 210.8lb. Back to where I started this round. Hopefully a couple of losses will follow to get me to a new low. Quick gym session today- cut short due to a horrible stitch which wouldn’t go away on my treadmill HiiT workout.
06/15 - 210.4lb. Didn’t really eat a main meal last night. Felt sick after the gym. A loss is a loss though. Did an 8K run in the evening.
06/16 - 208.8lb. Big-ish loss on the scale today. It’ll be a result of not much eating last night. My body often does this- holds firm on weight for a while and then a big loss. Fully expecting a week of fluctuations now. Did a 7k run tonight, which was tough as I picked a hilly route.
06/17 -208.2lb. Fell well short of calories yesterday so need to up them today. My lower back is twinging a bit, so will stay off running for a couple of days.
