Hi All,
I’m back! Happy to see familiar faces 😁
I’m approaching the 3-year mark of maintenance (Sept 1) & a number of things have contributed to a “perfect storm” of increasing scale wts. Want to catch this sooner rather than later!
My maintenance trend goal is < 71.5 kg
My monthly average wt goal is < 157

The scale is slowly dropping; my trend is beginning to show it.
Tracking exactly. Stretching the time between meals gradually ie reducing snacks.
I’m going to give my ankle one more day — actually, I’m going to walk today. I’ll wrap it & wear my hiking boots to hold it steady, ice it when home.
Slept like a baby haha
6/29 I have an entrenched 10K walking commitment, so I’ll get at least 4,400 in (which is what research says makes the most difference) & hopefully more.
6/30 WOW I walked 15,001 steps yesterday. Ankle is fine & I never even iced it. Sometimes I guess just going out there manages to fix it!!!
Made my tracker for July for the “Building Health Habits” Group.
I spent a lot of today looking back at my wt, calories, exercise & resting calories on a yearly basis. I’m feeling positive & have formulated a clear plan for July.
See you in 155! Thanks!!
I think 🎶 “everything’s gonna be okay!” 🎶

Hi, I am in again. I seem to be still maintaining, altho I would like to be losing, lol.
Something I read that I need to remember...I am working toward health, not weight necessarily.
71 yr old 5'3" Original SW= 175 on 8-19-12.
Lost 25# and basically maintaining since. Would like to lose at least 15# more.

Round 154 SW: 216.2
Day/Weight/Comment
6/21--215.6 Yesterday was warm out, so other than going to my trainer I didn't do much else. Yesterday was a high calorie/high carb day, so I won't be surprised if there is a tick up in the scale tomorrow. Back to regular calories/carbs today. Plan is to go out and take dog for walks while it's still cool outside.
6/22--215.3 Took dog out to the trails yesterday evening. It was warm and humid in the forest and instead of a 1mile walk, it ended up being a 3 mile walk. The ice cream bar I ate when I came back home was so good.
6/23--216.2 There is the uptick in the scale that I was expecting yesterday. Today is going to be a little cooler, so my plan is to go out for a long walk today.
6/24--216.2 Holding steady. Did not go out for a walk yesterday, by the time I went to sleep last night I realized that I had rarely been outside yesterday, work has been crazy. Today I am going to make sure that I go outside and get active.
6/25--214.9 There goes the drop from the uptick for the past 2 days. hopefully the drop will continue. Trainer day today.
6/26--214.5 It's going to be hot today. A friend and I are going on a road trip to the coast. I am bringing my puppy and this will be the first time she's seen any body of water, can't wait to see how she reacts.
6/27--215.1 Definitely enjoyed myself at the beach yesterday and definitely went over my calories, so not surprised about the uptick in weight. Trainer day today.
6/28--215.3 Last day of the major heat wave today, but it will still be hot over the next couple of days. I am so not motivated to cook anything in this heat, but I have to make sure that I just don't eat any and everything.
6/29--216.0 Carb overload. It was so hot here yesterday, and no air conditioning, that I did not want to cook anything and ended up just grabbing what was easy to eat. It's a little cooler today, so I'm back at it.
6/30--216.0 I am so happy to even the small loss. With the oppressive heat during this round my eating took a hit, but I know a lot of this is water retention. On to next round!

June focus: maintain weight < 150
- I have been maintaining since November 2019
- This is coming up to 16 months so far
- I have gradually worked my way down to being consistently under 145 lbs
- Working on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180's170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 154 🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.- 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.- 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.
