9/22 - 206.6 - thanks for the advice for working from home, friends! My meetings are tied to a computer so walking one's won't work. I use the bathroom in the basement and will set the alarm for every hour to take a 5 minute walk.
@susiemcmac - I worked from home for 18 years when moving from headquarters in Atlanta to Maine. I worked more hours when I worked from home because you always just have one more thing to do and you don't have to make the commute home. For this reason, I did all my exercise in the morning - that's the only way I could get it done. I would hike with our dog before I signed in each morning. Once our headquarters moved to the UK it was a little harder because they were all at work hours before I was, so no way I would sign in until after my hike.
Another thing that helped was my husband made me a lift for my desk and I got used to standing while working. It took a while to get used to though but even now (early retired) I stand most of the time when I'm on my laptop.
Setting the alarm as you said is a good idea since if you're like me, I would get so focused on work and before I knew it hours had passed and I hadn't moved.
I did gain most of my weight the last years of working from home. It was just too easy to snack and not having to get dressed in work clothes each day, and living in sweatpants most days, you don't realize quite how much weight you are putting on. That's one thing I would change - I would get dressed in jeans or something each day and not sweatpants. I think my husband might have appreciated that too - LOL. I did love working from home though and wasn't as exhausted as I was when commuting each day, and didn't have to drive in the snow! Good Luck!! Debra9 -

I always used to stand behind everyone because of my weight but when I did a quilt shop hop 4 years ago, I was in the front of the group because they were all taller. If I didn’t have that picture, I would have no idea how my appearance had changed. My next door neighbor has (intentionally) lost 29 pounds since she moved here June 1 and didn’t “see” it until she took a picture yesterday. YOU are an inspiration!
Thank you so much, but NO, I took no before pictures. I haven't even taken any "during" pictures (well, except the one that my friend Rachael took of me meeting my new horse.) I was so ashamed of how I looked. I am still not all that pleased with my appearance though I admit I look one heck of a lot better, and I notice people at work that I do not see very often do a double take when they first see me (nobody's said anything, which I understand because for all they know I've been ill!) but I will take a picture when I'm reached my 126 pound goal, or get somebody else to do it. I will try to get somebody to take a picture of me riding my new horse. I will be sure to be grinning, even though the saddle will make my thighs look fat, haha, and my hair will be sticking out from underneath my helmet!
I'm not sure that I've ever been an inspiration before, thanks! It's just because I have very little to tempt me to break faith with my plan. It seems like everybody else is always dining out, going to parties, celebrating stuff with friends and family, going on vacation, all things that I don't seem to do any more. If I go out with friends, it's to lunch at Subway (veggie delite, hold the cheese for me). I always have to get home and look after my animals after work!

I continued eating the way I did and decided to let my body decide where it wanted to be. It seems to like 115-118 and, looking back, I have been there since May, 2020. I think this recent bump up is due to the toast we had at Saturday brunch - really good sourdough. I noticed my knee was hurting again yesterday and now wonder if that is why my toe hurts. Amazing the little signs we get and ignore!
I used to get stomach aches, and my big toes would hurt, my breasts would be sore (sorry for TMI) and then one day I decided to take being a vegetarian one step further and became vegan. Symptoms disappeared immediately. I agree - we need to listen to our bodies more! I suspect that when I reach 126 I am not going to be totally pleased with my appearance and will want to lose a few more pounds. Good for you for maintaining that weight since May 2020! That is totally fantastic. And you're so active in here too. I don't plan to leave MFP. I know I'll have to work at maintaining and not fall back into bad (junk food) habits. You too are an inspiration!

@starrjulia8 and @tiabirdie56
I made 1/2 of a batch the Bieler broth and it was easy! I also added garlic, whole oregano and fresh thyme. After it cooked, I removed the woody thyme branch and blended it all. Then I added sea salt. I like this stuff and I hope you do too!

@AR10at50, Thanks again Karen! I know I'll add some herbs and spices to my liking. I'll experiment a bowl at a time. I've been looking for a savory green smoothie to enjoy during the winter and I love soup.5

4’9” petite-sm. boned female. 59 yrs
Ultimate goal: 98 lbs (subject to change)
SW (starting over--May 24, 2021): 160.3I started mfp on 2/20/11 at 160.2 lbs.
My lowest weight on mfp was 140 lbs in 11/2013 and 5/2014.
My highest weight ever: 168+ (and I wasn't even pregnant at that time... ) That was in 12/2016.
Just for the record used to be an athlete a long, long time ago. Used to teach Aerobics and Step Aerobics. Used to LOVE exercise.
Nowadays, I don't exercise at all. Why, oh why not? How can I go from loving exercise and doing tons of exercise to nothing at all?
Going from low blood pressure to being on medication for high blood pressure. What have I done to myself?!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/19 157
Wow! I already met my goal!
Well, if I can sustain this until the end of this round. I'll be happy. If I can get down to 156.6, I will be thrilled as that was what I was at in the middle of Round 162. I did follow food plan, yesterday, and drank my minimum of water. No exercise, tho.
9/20 157 Very stressed out to the point of shaking. Dad still in hospital... issues. Stuck with food plan yesterday. Drank 48 oz of water (above my minimum), No formal exercise, but did have over 11,000 steps yesterday.
9/21 154.8 wow! Did not expect that so weighed again. Same tame. Put scale up, then weighed again almost 10 minutes later. Exactly the same! I’m happy about it, but did not have such a good food day yesterday. No exercise yesterday. Did have minimum water & felt like I slept better, although still not enough sleep. Another very stressful day!!! Das had different dr today & problems with this dr. Ghah! He’s now been in the hospital since September 10th. Lost most of my afternoon to phone calls with drs & hospital. Unable to work, altho was at work…
9/22 154.8 Dad had procedure done, today. He made it through that, waiting for surgical consult now. He will need to have a small surgery done. He is having problems with feeding tube, so now he needs a different kind... Did well with food, yesterday/ At least 40 oz of water. Still no exercise.

Round 163 (95th for me) . I still need this to help keep me on track, particularly over the next weeks; the second of our holiday!
@QuiltingJaine- thank you yet again for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to stay on track – we are on our main 2 weeks holiday, no flying abroad this year (due to Covid), we are in our touring caravan, so for the major part I am responsible for both choosing & providing food, so hope to come back at least the same as SW, a loss will be a bonus – any loss will be a win! But still aware we are 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.
SW. 133.6
Day/weight/comment
9/19. 133.6 - Just short of 6 miles walked yesterday hence167 calories over yesterday.; It was Heritage Bus day in the local holiday town so we took a vintage bus ride round the Devon countryside.
9/20. 133.6 - no structured walking yesterday, moved along the coast to Dartmouth, so with packing up, travelling, seeing up again & then doing washing (towels needed freshening up - so used the washing machine & dryers on site), the day ran out of hours!! Ended the day with 400 calories over.
9/21. 134 - 9.5 miles walked yesterday along the coastal path to Dartmouth Castle then along the river and a big climb up Jawbone Hill back to the caravan park. Good food day too 👏.
9/22. 134 - 13.84 miles walked yesterday, down to Dartmouth, across the river on the ferry and then 3 miles up the hill to National Trust property Coleston Fishacre, walked around the house and gardens followed by return journey. Food well within limits.
9/23. 133.4 -12.2 miles walked yesterday; we walked down to Dartmouth, caught the ferry which went up river to NT property Greenway. This used to be Agatha Christie's weekend & holiday home and is where she set her novel Dead Man's Folly, the TV adaption was also filled here. Afterwards we caught the ferry across the river to eat at a fabulous sea food restaurant, I had scallops, DH had a massive beer battered haddock, so delicious! Then we made the return journey, the 81 minute mostly up hill climb helped to burn off quite a few calories, I just had a pear and a banana for evening meal! Neither of us were hungry!!

9/19 154.4 STEPS 11,680 SLEEP 5hr10m
4.5 mile walk yesterday morning before breakfast and then a physical day doing my brick feature wall, calories and macros all great. Steps were higher than recorded as I took my watch off for most of the day.
My bad back has got worse and I slept badly because of it. Don't think I'll be getting much done today, it's my TOTM so with the back, the cramps and the tiredness I'm gonna be taking it easy.
9/20 154.6 STEPS 1,316 SLEEP 9hr28
Painful day yesterday, I spent most of it resting and doing stretches to try and fix my back. Managed to get a bit more done on my brick wall later on thanks to painkillers. I'm against the clock as I want to get it done before OH gets back from India on Sunday. Had a hungry day too, thanks to TOTM. Managed to stay in calories but macros not ideal and I had a late dinner which is still 'in transit' so there's a slight uptick in my weight today.
9/21 153.8
My back seems to have sorted itself out and the pain has almost gone phew! Haven't been wearing my tracker so no S&S data but I slept well and was pretty active working on my project. Food has been OK, I haven't had much of an appetite recently but did manage to eat enough. Pleased the weight is still going down, I feel like I'm due another stall any moment now.
9/22 154.2
A little bounce back up today, my scale is playing up, it took many attempts to get a consistent reading. Still not much appetite but forced myself to eat a large salad in the evening to get some fibre intake. Blood test at the start of the month showed I was mildly hypothyroid, having another test in a month to see if anything has changed. This might explain the lack of appetite.
My back is much better though feeling quite stiff, I am thinking of starting a morning yoga routine. Missing my morning walks but don't have time right now.
9/23 153.6 Another active day, I did 9hrs solid working on my wall, cutting bricks, mixing mortar, climbing ladders and washing buckets. I was a little low on protein yesterday as I had run out of food so I wasn't eating my normal stuff. Went to tesco in the evening to stock up and there were so many gaps on the shelves so I had to buy things I wouldn't usually get. We're having a supply crisis in the UK which is affecting food, a combo of a lack of lorry drivers, a shortage of Co2, factory worker shortages and brexit border controls. Oh joy. My home energy bill has just gone up by 50%, yikes!

Round 163 goals: work out at least 30 mins every day, drink 2 litres water daily, fast 16 hours a day, no alcohol
Day/Weight/Comment:
9/19: 228.2 lbs – Yesterday I had a healthy lunch but then had popcorn for dinner and went to bed early to fast. Did a 30 min workout. Didn’t drink enough water but also didn’t have any alcohol.
9/20: 229.9 lbs – No surprise at the big jump today. I worked out for about an hour, but I had quite a few naughty treats. Ah well, it’s a new week!
9/21: 228.8 lbs - Yesterday went well. I had healthy meals, worked out for 30 mins, got my water in and fasted.
9/22: 228.2 lbs – Was hoping to have dropped more than this ah well. Stayed under my calorie goal, worked out for 50 mins, met water and fasting goals. Today I will try dropping total carbs to 45g.
9/23: 229.2 lbs – Not surprised at the uptick. I had way too much takeaway last night and also some prosecco. I’m going to try to eat well for the rest of the week. Today should be fine but Friday-Sunday is always tricky for me!

Today is also my 6 month MFP anniversary, and I have lost 75.2 pounds (much faster in the beginning, slightly over 2 pounds per week more lately). Jogged last night for the first time this week (road was flooded). Going to put the saddle on Terror today to see how he likes that. I don't anticipate that he will pay the least bit of attention, as he's used to having harness put on him. I also want to see if the girth fits his portly self!

Thank you @quiltingjaine !! 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!)
Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk/Free-Weights most days. IF, no sugar/white flour products. Focus on getting enough vegetables.
Next short-term goal:

9/21: 163.1 - A few days late getting started this round. My lowest since beginning in earnest on May 10, 2021. I'm trying to be in the moment and celebrate each pound I lose and the healthy changes I'm making. After all, I'm planning on making this a one-time deal and not going to lose these pounds ever again so might as well have a little going away celebration on the scale each morning. My husband knows it's a good weigh-in when he hears me rejoice and come out of the bathroom dancing. LOL

My mom passed away 6 weeks ago. It is so hard to write those words. I spent endless hours with her over the past couple years talking about her family history I was researching. As a history major, she loved talking about history but when you add in the people we were talking about being in the revolutionary war or civil war were her ancestors, that was pure joy to her. She had dementia toward the end and she couldn't tell me what she had for breakfast but she could tell me stories about her youth as if it was yesterday. She had ten brothers and sisters, all just as interesting as she was. I was the lucky one though to have this special time with her.
I hesitated to write this because it is so heartbreaking as I tend to bury my emotions right now, and also for those who have lost their parents, or other loved ones, I didn't want to bring sadness to you. I hope one day I will be able to replace some of the heartache with wonderful memories. I did learn during this time that there is one emotion that I don't turn to food and that is extreme sadness. I actually lost my appetite.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/19 - 146 - It's Sunday and I had wine last night so I'm happy. I was also able to go dog walking today without ankle pain so I hope I'll be able to get more steps in this week.
9/20 - 146.5 - Too many carbs this weekend.
9/21 - 145.5 - I had some dandelion tea and plenty of water yesterday. It's going to be raining here the next couple days, so I'll hop on our treadmill instead of walking the dog with my husband. Over the years, I've walked our dogs through rain, sleet, and snow, but since my husband retired and I'm still working, I've let him take over.
9/22 - 145 - I'm very happy to see this number. I also know my weight will bounce up and down so I have to stay focused and watch my calories and keep moving.
9/23 - 145.5 - Ate well and hopped on the treadmill last night.

9/23 - 146.6 - Good news is scale says I gained muscle and water mass, but lost a tad bit of fat. Though MFP is irking me. When I completed my tracking yesterday after dinner, I was right at calorie goal. Now that I'm looking to determine what could cause a larger gain (I know I did not gain a full pound of muscle overnight), it's showing I'm 362 cals over goal. WHAT?! WHY did that change so much over night?! Ugh. Anyway, Today, leftover meatballs for lunch. Hamburgers for dinner. Am trying to balance my food/macros a bit with those options. Will play with it this morning to see what meals I can make up out of those. I cannot eat only 1200 calories a day, I'll be ravenous and a not very nice person so have to figure out why MFP is suddenly deducting all my calories the day after, too.

Previous Day's Comments9/19 - This is water weight. Was at a car show with Fam and their truck (didn't win, but had a blast! Our buddy won 2nd in his group, though). Not near enough water and it was HOT. Tomorrow I have to commute to work so won't be running or working out. Need to figure out my lunch based on what we have here at the house.
9/20 - This is definitely water from being so stinking sore. Work is about to be fun, I'll be moving like a sloth today. Hopefully I can still get some steps in without overdoing it to help move along this soreness (hello, active recovery).
9/21 - Still quite sore, but not waddling around as bad. Did meet my step goal yesterday and I'm sure that helped loosen things up a bit. Will go for a walk this morning and put off running. My back is very achy and had some sciatica yesterday. Ankle visibly swollen (though not too terrible) so will take it easy and just walk off the soreness rather than run. Drank 90oz water yesterday. Managed a smaller dinner and larger lunch which is a goal of mine to adjust my eating and help with sleep. Home today, will figure out food for lunch and dinner shortly.
9/22 - I'm not entirely sure. Best I can guess is sodium from dinner. Not sure why 144 is so elusive. Think I'm going to row today rather than run. Ankle isn't quite ready for that high impact but I need to get some conditioning. I'm lucky BF bought a rower for us last week! I completely forgot about it until yesterday hehe I love that thing. Helped get me in shape to take my Army Fitness Test after a health scare. Over 90oz water yesterday and will try for a tad more today. Lunch will be leftover dinner (only ate half, super filling) and dinner will be meatball subs. Need to work on my NEAT throughout the day, yesterday was lazy but it was definitely needed to help with sore muscles from the 10K.

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
9/19 203.4 Walked 4 miles, 1792 cal, 115 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
NSV . My high waisted jeans slipped over my hips without unzipping … so bought 2 new pairs of jeans in a size smaller. WIN!
9/20 202.5 Walked 3.4 + 1 miles, 1899 cal, 246 net carbs, AF. Up a few times during the night and finally turned on coffee at 3am this morning. Feeling a lot of stress but also coughing a ton. Hope whatever ails me shakes loose soon.
9/21 202.7 Walked 2.4 miles, 1380 cal, 129 net carbs, AF. Definitely not feeling well yesterday. Took two 2 hr naps, hot tea, cough drops, meds, and skipped book club in the evening.
9/22 203.0 Walked 2 + 1.1 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1755 cal, 86 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
9/23 202.7 Walked 3.8 + 1.3 miles, only thought about swimming, 2453 cal, 184 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Spent most of the day looking at things to do on our trip in October and dreaming about places we could go early next year.

Yay yippee! So nice to see the downward momentum. Enjoy your Sunday, everyone.

Had Thai veggies for lunch, so probably salt. I also had some Triscuits and cheese in the evening — skipped dinner but I was really hungry. All good.

Thai leftovers yesterday so sodium still a little high, but not bad. I’m certainly on my feet more with the puppy!

Rain rain rain, which we definitely need, but it makes exercising the pup a lot messier! Oh, well, that’s what towels are for, right? And he makes sure I get off my duff a lot more! Have a lovely Wednesday!

Brrr! 45 this morning and wet wet wet. But it’s supposed to clear up later, so Rory and I will get a walk. Warming up into the 70s tomorrow and the following week, so perfect. Enjoy!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/19 234.8
9/20 233.7 - What a weekend. Saturday night had a comedy show so we went out to eat and got soft pretzel bites, hamburgers, fries and beer. To counter that, I've been doing 600+ calorie rides on the Peloton and absolutely feeling it. I'm addicted to the Peloton rides because unlike T25, you just burn a ton and have no clue until you're finished how hard you've worked.
9/21 233.0 - Honestly surprised about this because I got home and snacked and then ate dinner and then snacked more. But getting in longer Peloton rides and burning more and more calories. Probably too many calories at this point so I'll have to eat a bit more to make up for that. Did an almost 800 calorie ride this morning and really feeling it right now. Water and protein all day.
9/22 233.6 - I imagine that bottle of water I chugged a minute before weighing in had a lot to do with this. Did 45 minutes on the bike this morning for 640 calories. Down from yesterday but you can't push yourself to your max every day. Any work is positive! I wanted to be under 235 by this coming Sunday for a friend's wedding and it looks like I'll be there.
9/23 234.4 - Not really sure here. I did snack a bit because I was starving when I got home from work and work ordered Chinese, probably just a lot of water retention. Have to drink more today and hope to flush the system. Burned 720 calories on the bike this morning. I had a lot left in the tank but I had to start getting ready for work.
