    May 10, 2021 - 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)

    Next short-term goal: 162.X
    169....168....167....166....165....164....163....162.X

    SW: 167.1

    8/20: 167.3
    8/21: 167.3
    8/22: 167.0
    8/23: DNW
    8/24: 166.9
    8/25: 166.7
    8/26: 165.9
    8/27: 165.6

    8/28: 165.7

    8/29: 165.9 A small bump up but cool with it. Making progress. Looking forward to next round.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's

    If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!
    There is no going back! NOT THIS TIME!

    Hi, I am in again. I seem to be still maintaining (within a few pounds), altho I would like to be losing, lol.
    Something I read that I need to remember...I am working toward health.

    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.

    SW 148.2 (Round 149) Goal 130#
    Round 149 EW= 147.8 (Average Weight= 147.25)
    Round 150 EW= 149 AW= 149.3
    Round 151 EW= 149.4 AW= 148.73
    Round 152 Didn't do
    Round 153 SW= 150 EW= 148.4 AW= 148.94
    Round 154 SW= 148.4 EW= 148.2 AW= 148.74
    Round 155 SW= 148.2 EW= 150.4 AW= 150.06
    Round 156 SW= 150.4 EW= 152.4 AW= 150.91
    Round 157 SW=152.4 EW= 152.4 AW= 152.6
    Round 158 SW= 152.4 EW= 152.8 AW= 151.9 Yay!! Starting back down a little
    Round 159 SW= 152.8 EW= 152.4 AW= 152.64 Oops, not a good 10 days, need to do better
    Round 160 SW= 152.4 EW= 152.4 AW= 151.64

    8-19= 152.4
    Goal this round is for EW to be 150 & AW to be lower than last round

    8-20= 151.6 yay! Drinking more water does help!
    8-21= 151
    8-22= 151.2
    8-23= 151.8
    8-24= 151.2
    8-25= 151.2
    8-26= 152
    8-27= 152.4
    8-28= 151.6
    8-29= 152.4 AW= 151.64 My AW went down a #, so that is good.

    Day 9 8/28: 171.6, Trend 172.3 (-0.6)
    Day 10 8/29: 172.6, Trend 172.2 (+1). Big work party yesterday, so a little off the wagon. Hey—there was key lime cheesecake! Key lime is my kryptonite. I did however burn 1,100 cal dancing and setting up the party, so I’m pretty sure the gain is just water 😉

    I was after an elusive 85 lbs loss 😂 but 83 will do me fine.
    • in Maintenance for over 2 years.
    • Smart BMI - optimal weight.
    • Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range
    ldgqzhg1sbfo.jpg
    Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily. People are still dying out there………
    😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
    August focus:
    • maintain weight < 150 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
    • Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

    I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
    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's; 170's; 160's; 150's;
    140's; 130's
    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

    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!
