Round 162 (94th for me) . I really need this to help keep me on track, particularly over the next 2 weeks!
@QuiltingJaine- thank you yet again for setting up the new round.

Challenge for this round is to stay on track – Friday we are off for our main 2 weeks holiday, no flying abroad this year (due to Covid), we shall be taking our touring caravan, so for the major part I will be responsible for both choosing & providing food, so hope to come back at least the same as today, a loss will be a bonus – any loss will be a win! But still aware we shall be on holiday so will be indulging in an occasional treat – note to self “an occasional treat” !! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” 2 months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic: Covid is still around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, always consider others.

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.

9/8 134.2 – very pleased with this number, 1 pound down from end of last round, but very importantly I am back on track. Lunch with 4 of my siblings yesterday at Hickory Smokehouse, but despite all of their choices as least mine were sensible, I didn't feel deprived and I was able to stay within limits for the day – consistency is paramount. 9.81 miles walked yesterday.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/9 134.8 – 10 miles walked yesterday. I failed the iron test when I went to give blood; one more point down & I would have been referred to my GP, I feel I do have a balanced diet with sufficient iron (MFP shows that too!), I went on a bit of a chocolate feast when I got home

Why ??!! So plans to increase iron in diet now in hand.
9/10 137.2 – why am I so greedy, why do I keep stuffing my face? Why do I let food take over my life? I need to take back control NOW !! If this high avoidable spike is not a wake up call then what is! 8 days to pull this back, I want to do it ! I am going to do it ! Today is a new day, lets go.

9/11 136.2 - as you can see had a better food day, stuck to plan. 9.79 miles walked yesterday, feeling more in control, just need to stay that way!! On our way to the south coast for our holiday, feeling positive!!
9/12 134.2 - back to end of last round weight 👏, good day yesterday, despite travelling to camp site, setting up and erecting awning we still managed to walk almost 7 miles in the late afternoon before our BBQ. Stayed in control.

9/7 - 159.0
9/8 - 158.2

Last round I managed to break through a stall in weight loss, I think the walking is really paying off and I feel much more energetic. I will try to keep it up this week but I have some physically hard days coming up with fitting my new kitchen and building a faux brick wall so may be quite exhausted, we'll see...

9/09 - 160.2 STEPS - ? Didn't wear tracker SLEEP 7hrs23m Well that's strange, 2lbs up in one day! I've had a very stressful couple of days with teenager drama (cortisol) plus had bread with dinner (carbs) which usually causes water weight for me. Also didn't get much walking done yesterday so that's most likely why. Not sure if I should change my RGW or stick with it and hope for the best.

9/10 - 158.2 STEPS 9,959 SLEEP? I started off my day with a 3 mile walk first thing and it really gave me a boost of energy, spent the rest of the day buzzing and got loads of stuff done. In the evening we went out to a new bar in town. I ended up at about 2000 cals yesterday so I'm gonna have to be strict this weekend. OH has to go to India today for a family emergency so I'm gonna be on my own for 2 weeks. I can really focus on myself and building some healthy habits.

9/11 - 159.4 STEPS 6,640 SLEEP 6,632 Big ol' carb binge yesterday for no particular reason. Got out for a short walk first thing then drove OH to the airport, got back home and spent the rest of the day snacking. Was I worried? Bored? Self sabotaging? I wasn't hungry and didn't even enjoy it... no idea. Feeling really bloated today so I'm gonna eat lots of salad and try to get a decent walk in. OH missed his connecting flight and is stuck in Delhi for 13hrs, poor thing!

9/12 - 158.0 STEPS? SLEEP? (lost tracker!) I fought off carb cravings all day yesterday and came in a little over my cals as I didn't record any exercise but I drank loads of water to flush things through. Probably had too much salt, didn't seem to cause an issue for me, still had a big water weight drop. Getting really behind on my steps, better get a big walk in today

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.

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 2021 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, strength training, 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)

My first round, this is perfect for me!

36, 5'4
OSW on 23 Aug 21: 234 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs

Pre-round SW on 8 Sept 21: 232.6 lbs
Round goals: work out at least 20 mins every day, drink 2 litres water daily, fast 16 hours a day
Round GW: 229 lbs so that I can scratch off the 230’s

Day/Weight/Comment:

9/9 – 234 lbs – ate more than I planned to yesterday but stuck to my exercise and water goals. Feeling re-focused!

9/10 – 232.8 lbs – although I didn’t stick to the plan yesterday, I still came in under calorie goal so I'm happy with that. I also met my exercise, water, and fasting goals.

9/11 – 233.6 lbs - No surprise here. Friday is always a weak spot for me and last night was no different, big carb binge! But I didn’t drink any alcohol and that was a win. Also met my water and exercise goals. Gotta try to do better for the rest of the weekend!

9/12 – 232 lbs – Went to bed around 6pm without dinner as I wasn’t feeling well so this is probably not a real loss but happy to see this number all the same. Didn’t work out either and only drank around 1 litre of water.

9/09 - 229.4 (-.2) Working out at Orange Theory Fitness today. I love these challenges. They keep me motivated and moving forward. Wishing everyone a fabulous next ten days.
9/10 - 229.2 (-.4) Yesterday was my indulgence meal, pizza. Making a long story as short as possible, instead of eating the three pieces I usually eat, I stopped at one and a half pieces. It was a huge disappointment. I love this pizza from one of my favorite places and this time it was a mushy mess. I was mad. What a waste of an indulgence meal. So what did I do? Continue to eat the rest of the evening. It was probably my worst eating day since I started this journey and I was fully expecting to get up and weigh in five pounds more this morning. I was kicking myself all night and my stomach was upset on top of it. I had failed. What mind games! It’s one day out of one hundred maybe? I logged everything (almost 3000 calories). Lucky I don't keep junk food around or it could have been worse. I expect a bump in the next few days, but I’m getting back on track today. Swimming is on the agenda.
9/11 - 229.2 (-.4) While I was swimming yesterday, I thought about the mind games of losing weight. I seem to panic on and off and I think that’s because I wonder, after many failures at losing and regaining, is this the beginning of doing that all over again? I’m determined that this time, things are going to be different. That’s why I’m in this challenge and active on the forums. I’m not in this journey alone and there are so many successful people cheering us on and offering us real life examples of what worked for them. I’m going to trust the process and keep moving forward. Thanks for the great support!
9/12 - 229.8 (+.2) There’s the bump I’ve been expecting. Limited exercise yesterday and no hiking today, with my sister out of town. I'm taking my dogs to a "Doggie Plunge" today as a fundraise for Freedom Service Dogs. After they close the waterpark for the year after Labor Day, it's used for the dogs to play in before they drain it. So much fun!!

The “new puppy diet” seems to be working. Actually what’s working is the photo of me & DH with the puppy when he arrived. I’m so fat! I seem to have stopped evening snacking cold turkey. A bit of “fizzy water” fools me into thinking I’ve had something.

I took Rory for his first tracking session yesterday and he did great. Tracking (following human scent trails) is great exercise for both of us — right now he’s doing very short tracks, of course, but soon the tracks will be longer. I train with a friend, so in addition to walking behind Rory when he’s tracking, I walk tracks for my friend’s dog to follow. We’d do tracks two or three times a week. That plus lots of puppy walks and obedience training will get my butt in gear! Am I blathering about my puppy? Yes, yes I am! 😁

9/11--208.1 Not enough protein yesterday, so will work on that today. Puppy did so well yesterday and now we have more tools to work on her jumping. Hairdresser today.
9/12--208.5 Way too much candy yesterday and feeling a little gross today. Near my hairdresser there is this really cute old fashioned candy story that I went to yesterday and got some candy. Ate too much of the candy yesterday. Luckily, I don't visit my hairdresser that often. I really need to get my water today. Trainer day today.

9/9- 155.6- feeling optimistic about the 10 days. Also started using a habit tracker which keeps me mindful and gives me a visual to my progress on behaviors I am working on (like good sleep hygeine).
9/10- 157.2- doesn't surprise me...we had take out last night. I always have these 2-3 lb swings...just need them at a lower overall weight. 😆
9/11- 158. I'm not very good at this. But I'm logging. And I guess that's something.
9/12- 156.6 I don't know what was in the air yesterday but I was in a mood! Check off yesterday's and today's workout! Busy day working a Walk to End Alz for work.

Ditto on that @deepwoodslady I'll sometimes get 3 of 4 requests in succession then nothing for months. I never can find these people when searching MFP.

GW: 165

Day 1 9/9: 204.4 (-0.2) Not surprising given my chicken sandwich binge yesterday. Hoping today is a little easier. I go riding today and that means I can have Starbucks so I’m hoping the built in “cheat” will tide me over for another day or two.
Day 2 9/10: 203.6 (-0.8) Man I need to go riding more 😅 Stayed on track yesterday with my Starbucks cheat “meal” (coffee and scone) pre-ride. Told my instructor we need to work on MY stamina so did a lot of posting trot on Big Mare (only 3 spooks and 1 bolt attempt!). Managed not to pull every muscle in my back this time as Big Mare was sooooo much better about using HER back and not getting so heavy on the forehand in her canter. Good day overall. They added mirrors to the arena so now I get an additional visual cue as to how far I have to go 😐
Day 3 9/11: 203.8 (+.2) Yesterday was hard. I had a major craving for pizza, even opened the app on my phone to order one, but somehow I got through it. And even though I stuck to the plan I still gained a little. I know it’s probably not a real gain but I still hate to see it. A bit worried it will happen again today especially since I have a lot of errands to run and feeling a little low.
Day 4 9/12: 202.8 (-1.0) Back on the slow slide after whatever happened yesterday. Wound up not running errands yesterday because I waited too long and was afraid I’d cave to fast food. So I went grocery shopping early this morning and managed to walk away without any take out or junk food. Here’s hoping the cravings stay away today!!!

@TerriRichardson112 Happy 75th to your DH!! Mine will be 73 in a couple of months. Enjoy your family!!

quiltingjaine · September 2021

@deepwoodslady & @tiabirdie56 Donna and Tish, I agree! This is my only thread on MFP so when I get friend requests I watch here for the name to come up. If it doesn’t, DELETE! Who the heck sends friend requests to random people these days! WEIRDOS?!?! And interestingly, they seem to be only males! Does anyone actually accept these unknowns as friends?

Several years ago, when my BFF started dating after 40 years, she always met her dates at a public place and she told her son and daughter-in-law that if she was leaving someplace in somebody else’s vehicle she would send a picture of the vehicle and license plate. One time when she did that the man got all irritated and told her, “You just made the WORST mistake of your life!” That was the end of the date. She drove herself home. I believe she made the BEST decision in her life!

Stay safe my friends!!

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.

9/9 117.0 AF My 1700th day on MFP! Even if we are cruising and consequently no internet, I make a daily entry on my phone - or on paper, and count those days.
9/10 117.0 AF My scale has received a telepathic message from all of yours. It said 111.5 3 times! I knew that wasn’t right! Moved it and tried again.
9/11 118.0 The lunch date with my DH was worth every ounce! 1/2# burger with 3 cheeses. I even ate the bun and some onion rings. Not AF as we visited neighbors and he had a snifter of Jack Daniels poured for me when we arrived. Not worried. 😋
9/12 117.5 AF We had a wonderful evening at an outdoor production of “Smokey Joe’s Cafe” at Super Summer Theater with neighbors last night.
