Day/Weight/Comment
09/08 …..187.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/09 …..188.8 ….. (trend weight 187.9) A gain overnight. It tasted like cookies but it was really the past week of well problems over & over and no water, travel, medical issues related to prior cancer that is still unresolved and the death in my extended family. Emotional eating and stress is real! Today I travel again for two CT scans. One of the liver, one of the lung. This is not a routine set of tests. There are issues that are being checked and/or rechecked. Things have been found and we need to get to the bottom of it. Travel for me means a lot of inactivity and restaurant dinner. I may skip posting my weight tomorrow (which I have never done) because I just can’t take anymore stress or pressure. I’ll post and read, but no weight! Well company coming back tomorrow. Maybe some resolution but I’m skeptical because they have already been here a couple of weeks ago. I am going to try to pull myself together tomorrow and start weighing myself again on Saturday. I just can’t take anymore bad news! In regards to those cookies, I promise it was not 1.2 pounds worth. Scale is all over the place!
09/10 …..DNW ….. (trend weight DNW) CT scans were easy yesterday. 3 large cups of contrast dye an hour prior. No results yet, of course. I had to stop my diabetes medication Wednesday night and I can’t resume taking until Sunday morning. I guess that forces me to really watch what I am eating although it didn’t stop me yesterday during travel. Today really needs to be a good day.
09/11 …..189.2 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Okay, I guess I expected as much after travel. Good news on the CT scan results…..liver lesions are benign cycts. Lung nodule has grown again both in length and width but they still feel it is not a fast enough growth from CT scan to CT scan rechecks to merit a biopsy or to suspect cancer. They will continue (as they have done since 2019) to monitor it every 6 months with follow-up CT scans. Yay! Now, to get through the real worry next week on the 16th. What does the breast surgeon recommend for my unusual skin changes on the breast which could be a pre-cursor to a very aggressive breast cancer metasteses? We will know soon…… I am planning a lazy day today as I am mentally exhausted. However, if I push myself hard enough I may just fit in a few short walks and some dancing. BTW, well company never showed up yesterday. WTH?
09/12 …..188.4 ….. (trend weight 188.3) I worked hard yesterday afterall and skipped that rest day. I cleaned window frames outside and was up & down stairs all day. I also rode the exercise bike twice, did a little walking, and danced for about 20 minutes. One song was “Have you ever seen the rain?” Yes, I was thinking of you @quiltingjaine ! Good meals yesterday but a bad snack last night. I’ve got to improve my habits!
09/13 …..189.0 ….. (trend weight 188.4)Drats already! After burning a gajillion calories the past 2 days, I ended up with my body screaming for calories and the hunger was intense at 1:00 AM. After closing out of MFP I ended up in the kitchen cooking and eating. 3.5 hours of sleep and then on the scale weighing. Not such a good plan! Today I will be burning many calories again and back on my projects. I will have to plan better. During the hunger I tried 1 oz of walnuts, then a full size (140 cal) yogurt, then a piece of 90% cacao dark chocolate. That just added to my extra calories when I finally cooked a meal. Not happy here today!
09/14 …..187.6 ….. (trend weight 188.3) Very strange…..last night I needed no snacks and wiped them off my pre-log. The night before I was up cooking at 1:00 AM. I had the same dinner both nights and I did the same phenomenal calorie burn working on my window project. I don’t always get it, but I’ll take that it’s in the right direction today with a smile.
09/15 …..185.8 ….. (trend weight 188.0) Thank you TMI. Also did more window cleaning after the rain stopped for some very nice extra calorie burn. Tomorrow I travel to the cancer center. Hopefully it will be tolerable news. My scale reading will be up Friday but I hope to have it level back off by Sunday. I’ve just got to keep my nose clean after the trip! It doesn’t happen unless I make it happen!
09/16 …..185.2 ….. (trend weight 187.8) A good day yesterday. More windows cleaned and I’m almost done with that calorie burning project. Travel today.
09/17 …..xxxxx ….. (trend weight xxxxx)
09/18 …..xxxxx ….. (trend weight xxxxx)

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.
Round 162
Month/Day: Exercise / Comment
9/9: 204.2
Quite the yoyo. Thankful for the lows. Getting excited about my northern Wisconsin fishing trip. In the past, this has also been an eating trip. We all bring food to share. We have talked about de-emphasizing that aspect of things this year. Talk is cheap.
9/10: 204.6
It’s Friday! Starting tomorrow, the more the fish are biting, the less I will be biting.
9/11: releasing the Kraken! I named my old fishing boat “the Kraken.”
9/12: releasing the Kraken!
9/13: releasing the Kraken!
9/14: releasing the Kraken!
9/15: 206
Back at it! This reading is amazing considering…..
Had a great time with uncles and cousin on the trip. Not a lot of salad consumed. Ha! Went up there for crappie and caught some but nowhere near the limit. I did boat a very nice walleye that hit my crappie bait.
Pumpkin Festival starts today.
I will try top catch up with the 135 posts I missed. 😊
9/16: 207.6
AAAAAnd there is the Pumpkin Festival food tent showing up. Luckily I was able to burn a few calories by smiling at my 4 year old DGS while he did a few carnival rides.

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!!
9/13 - 228.2 (-1.4) In my head, getting under 230 is a big deal for me. The next mind goal is losing more than 40 pounds (221) and then weighing under 216. There are sometimes odd mini-goals that mean something big to us individually for a variety of reasons. For this week, I’m celebrating weighing under 230. After that, I’m focusing on losing 41!!
9/14 - 228.2 (-1.4) Today I’m back to the pool and then to my art studio to paint. It’s going to be a good day.
9/15 - 226.6 9 (-2.8) I’ve been focusing on getting my water in, staying under my calories goals and solid exercise. This was a nice surprise this morning.
9/16 - 226.4 (-3.0) Yesterday was really busy with no organized exercise. I didn’t get all my water in either. Today I’ll be swimming and focusing on getting all my ounces in.

9/14: 163.9 - Glad to see weight stayed the same after popcorn (air popped) with butter and too much salt. I love popcorn and it's a good snack to have if I don't add so much salt. I drank lots of water and rowed, and was still within my calorie range.
9/15: 163.9 - Okay, let's see how many days I can stick 163.9. I'll take it since I'm still 163.x!
9/16: 163.4 The number on the scale is exciting to see but what really motivates me at the moment is when I go all day long in a pair of pants that are now starting to fall off!!

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!8 -

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. 8:20am
9/13 118.0 Adult beverage and a handful of corn chips, hung out with neighbors on the driveway. Foot/shin cramps during the night
9/14 118.0 No foot cramps last night. Feel as if I slept well. Oskar and I are closed in the sewing room. He’s not happy. We are having a security door installed this morning. We may also get a new peephole that is low enough for me to look through without a step up. The problem with being short!
9/15 118.0 Went to Buffet@Asia yesterday-way too many carbs and not enough protein led me to eating a hamburger patty at 6:30 followed by Quest protein chips. I’m going to try to fast today but I’m not sure I have my head around it. It really IS a head game!
9/16 118.0 Sliders last night at community bingo. Egg salad or chicken salad on King’s Hawaiian rolls. Sweet bread does NOT belong with either of those. Maybe 1T of filling in each. I should have taken my own protein.6 -

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
9/9 202.3 Walked 4 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1357 cal, 91 net carbs, AF. Didn’t accomplish much today outside of menu planning, groceries, cooking, and exercising … oh and reading “This Tender Land” by William Kent Krueger and listening to “The House in the Cerulean Sea” by TJ Klune. Headed to the fishing camp today for a long food & drink weekend where exercise is challenging. Before I leave planning to attend strong & fit strength class this morning.
9/10 203.7 @ fishing camp 🎣 Strength Class 1 hr, no walking, 5 hrs in the car, 1599 cal, 139 net carbs, not enough water. 1.5 bottles of Michelob Ultra at the Community BBQ event hosted by one of the resort camps and held at Dirty Reds outside bar … get to know your neighbors (free brisket & beer)
9/11 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.4 miles, fishing … caught 21.5” & 23” Redfish, 1405 cal, 68 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
9/12 204.2 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3 miles, fished, 1872 cal, 107 net carbs, AF.
9/13 204.7 Walked 3 miles, long 5 hr car drive, 1657 cal, 157 net carbs, AF. Expected rain this week with Tropical Storm Nicholas.
9/14 203.2 Walked 1.3 miles, rain, Strength Class 1 hr via Zoom since Tropical Storm/ Hurricane Nicholas expected, 1774 cal, 135 net carbs, AF.
9/15 203.1 Walked 3.2 miles, 1674 cal, 182 net carbs, 1 glass wine & pizza. Electricity was off all day but we are fine!
9/16 204.1 Walked 4.5 + 1 miles, 1845 cal, 117, 2 margaritas on the rocks. Book club met at a Mexican restaurant. My downfall … I’ve not been out to eat Mexican food and drink margaritas in a very long time. Put that with a group of ladies that enjoy “discussions” and it was a fun evening but filling!

🎉DAY 1:?9/14 72.9 160.38 did Really well today - pre-logged everything before I ate & walked tons.
Should be lower tomorrow or next day.
🎉Day 2: 9/15 72.3 159.06 🌸 VERY HAPPY
My system worked yesterday!! I wrote down everything I was going to eat on a piece of paper on kitchen counter, and recorded fiber protein sodium & calories for each. Doing so BEFORE I ate anything helped me realize what was too salty or would throw my protein or calories too high. Also entered it in my phone app. I didn’t feel so great as I dipped water, walked tons, and kept busy Decluttering…body WAS NOT happy with the overeating from 9/14 & the change was particularly apparent this morning.I feel much better. On my walk, I realized my body feels MUCH better with sodium under 1500mg. So now that’s a “want to” not a “have to”!
9/16 YAY 🦩 159.06 🌸 yay! Did great yesterday!
