    Female, 5’3”, 60
    Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
    GW: <200 in 2020 BMI 35.2
    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

    R155: Time to make some progress and strive for <200 in July!
    Exercise Goal for this round: Daily planks, squats & hand weights. Bike once per week. Walk 100 miles in July!
    🎯Mini Goal: 204.x (Repeat until I hit it!)

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    7/1 206.2 Walk 3.3 miles, 1 min plank, 10 squats, hand weight routine, bike 30 min, 1751 cal, 98 net carbs, 2 glasses wine dining out. Pretty sure that the unexpected Italian dinner out showed up on the scale and derailed all my exercise. Set up my paper journal to track my exercise goals in July and began testing them out yesterday! No reason to wait until July :) I’ve found that the graphs and paper journal help me reflect , focus and high 5 myself … something about all those colored pencils and doodles!
    7/2 207.6 @ fishing camp 🎣 No walking long car ride, plank, squats, 1853 cal, 102 net carbs, 4 glasses of wine. Hoping this jump is from travel bloat and not actual gain. I was good at fast food ordering grilled chicken melt no bun at Whataburger and then dinner was jambalaya. But the wine and less water might have just taken me over the edge.
    7/3 207.4 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 miles, fishing, squats, 1850 cal, 86 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Caught 16” speckled trout but due to the freeze earlier this year the TPWD narrowed the slot size from 15”-25” to 17”-23”. Catch & Release. No fish tacos :(
    7/4 207.1 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 + .3 miles, fishing, squats, 2219 cal, 112 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
    7/5 @ fishing camp 🎣

    Height = 5'4
    Highest Weight = 193 lbs.
    Goal Weight = 134 lbs.
    Total Pounds Lost = 23 lbs.
    Pounds To Goal Weight = 36 lbs.

    Round 155 Goals: Maintain (will be traveling, so not focused on a loss this round). 80+ oz. water daily, IF 16/8, Strength Workouts + Walking (on a running break), Focus on mindful eating, Limit Alcohol

    Round 154 End Weight: 170 lbs.
    7/1: 170
    The heat wave has lessened up today, so finally feel like working out this week!
    7/2:169.9
    Was halfway through drinking my morning cup of tea when I realized I hadn't weighed yet, so might actually be a little lower than this. Plan for today is a full body strength workout.
    7/3: 169.9
    Rainy day, but have lots to keep me busy inside, traveling tomorrow through Tuesday
    7/4: 169.8
    Likely will post a gain for Monday & Tuesday but know by Wednesday the scale will be back moving in the right direction - overall goal is to maintain this round - so the slight loss so far this round is a bonus!

    @chublet25 Vala’s story reminds me of the beagle we adopted long ago. Her first name was Heidi and we had been advised to call her by Heidi and the name we wanted to give her, Kelly. The day my husband brought her home, it was raining. He opened the car door and I called her. There was no reaction when I called her as Heidi so I said, “come on Kelly” and she dashed right in the house! We never called her Heidi again!

    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.

    7/2 114.5 Our daughter came up early, cut my hair, and went to water fitness with me. She said it was a humbling experience because we were “kicking her *kitten*!” I told her to come back on Monday because that instructor is much tougher.
    7/3 114.5 Night of Fire at LVMS tonight. I love stock car races!
    7/4 115.5 Happy Independence Day USA 🇺🇸 We had a wonderful time at the races🏁. I ate a hot dog 🌭 and bun so my carbs were almost double my daily limit but it’s okay. Ate all the salt that came off my friends soft pretzel plus pink salt at home and didn’t have nearly enough water. $4/20 oz bottle=racetrack robbery! Wonderful fireworks 💥 🎇 🎆

    Although Vala belonged to somebody else, she and I bonded straight after we met. Before I had my own few acres, I boarded my mare Pic across the aisle from her and Vala was always totally jealous of the care Pic got and she clearly wanted to belong to me, as her owners ignored her, yet refused to sell her, saying that they loved her too much (ha!). Two or three years after I left there, I had a dream that I bought her for $600, and I emailed that to the owner, and lo and behold they agreed to sell her to me for that price. It's a ridiculous price for a mare with an injured back, as she cannot be ridden, but I had promised her that if I could ever make her mine, I would. And I do not regret it, not for a second. Vala's original name was Missie, but I changed it after I got her. She knew her name, Missie, very well, but after I had her for 2-3 days and accidentally called her Missie, she ignored me completely. I called "Vala" and she came right up to me. It's as if she was leaving her past behind her. Sorry to have gone on!

    @chublet25 Vala is lovely, dirty face and all! ❤️ I used to show hunters, jumpers, and equitation, and miss so much being with horses. Lucky you and lucky Vala!

    @chublet25 - YES! I discovered last year when starting the daily weigh-in that our monthly visits to the fishing camp were killing me. I would gain 5 lbs in a long weekend. So since Oct last year the scale gets packed up in the car too for the journey. It reminds me in the morning about my focus and journey. If I'm not losing during these trips to the camp at least I'm maintaining!
    Didn't take it on my New Orleans and Hot Springs vacations in June and on both of those trips I had weight to lose when I returned.

    Hi I weigh in kg and also record my happy scale trend. My maintenance goal weight is 52kg although I am happy to be a bit below to allow for indulgences!

    Goal for this round is stay below 52kg with Happy Scale trend below 51.5kg. EW for round 154 = 51.0 HS trend 51.3kg. I’ll be using a different scale starting Friday and I don’t know if it reads the same

    Thu 1 I won’t be weighing as I’m leaving home around 04:00 and will be on the road for at least 12 hours.
    Fri 2 51.4 trend 51.3 😊↔️ Different scales, over calories yesterday and not enough water.
    Sat 3 51.0 trend 51.2 😊 ⬇️
    Sun 4 DNW
    Mon 5 51.6 trend 51.4 👿 ⬆️ I’ve not been meeting my normal health goals so entirely predictable

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ Round 155 (round 87 for me ) I continue to prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.

    Challenge for this round is to continue yet again to work back towards maintanence – any loss will be a win! We should have been going away for a week in our caravan on Friday, but it has had to be cancelled as we are both in self isolation – (luckily, I've been able to rebook the site albeit not til next year 'cuz they are fully booked!, but at least we are not losing our money). We shall get away for the weekend after we get our freedom !!! 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 future – I've had both of my vaccines.
    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

    7/1 131.2 – shocked at this, checked scale several times, think some of the loss last couple of days is due to upset stomach and too much TMI! Another of my covid symptoms? See how it goes next few days Feeling much brighter today, might try a short jog in place later. Good food choices just 36 calories over yesterday, still no structured exercise.
    7/2 132 – feeling even better today, still not 100%, but getting there! Good food choices again yesterday; within calories.
