I am Catherine, a 44yr old, 5' 7” lady from North Wales, UK.
Round 166 - 79kg (12st 6lb), EW 75kg. Was my first week calorie controlling for a long time so the loss was all water really… now the hard work starts!
SW: 75kg (11st, 11.5lb)
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 75.5kg (11st 12.5lb). Went trampolining yesterday and fit in my jeans for the first time in months (they are still very tight!). My eating was fine so I assume the lb regain is a blip that will even itself out tomorrow!
10/30: 75.5kg again.
10/31: 74.5kg (11st 10lb)
11/1: 74.5kg (11st 10lb). Back to school for Ellie today so we are in a rush!!
11/2: 75kg (11st, 11.5lb). I’ve been eating ok so I think this is probably just normal fluctuation and will drop off tomorrow or the next day. School mornings are hard 😩

Round 167 (99th for me). I need this to help keep me on track.
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to yet again get back on track; I'm endeavouring to have a binge free 10 days, after all it's just 10 days! – I want to drop a few pounds by the start of December as I feel more comfy in a dress I want to wear for Peaky Blinders dance night – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” sometime ago, but remember there is still a pandemic, cases are continuing to rise: 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.

@musicsax Thank you for your insightful message. I appreciate you sharing your experience and at the same time sad that you had to go through that, and hope the memories don’t bring back pain and sadness.
@quiltingjaine thank you for starting another round. Btw, I noticed the title of this round states 20 days instead of 10 days.
To all the sweet, caring friends who wrote comments or thought of me after my dad died. Thank you for being here for me. I appreciate all the warm thoughts & prayers. If I could, I would respond to each of you, individually. Now, my Mom is in crisis… since October 13th. She is not doing well. Although they’ve been married for 66 years, they have not been together since my mother got Covid on December 27, 2020. She recovered from Covid Pretty well. We almost lost her at one point. And she’s been bound to a wheelchair ever since she had Covid, but she had been walking very poorly before Covid started. Like my dad, she also has dementia. Before Covid both of them live together in the same room at a memory care assisted living facility. We chose not to tell her about my dad.. That has been very difficult for us, but we know she is not in a state that she could handle it or possibly even understand it. We would not have been able to bring her to the funeral she is having such a rough time right now and may not make it herself. I just told one of my brothers that this could be the last day for her she’s really not well. She is sleeping a lot! She can’t really talk hardly anymore. This just all happened pretty suddenly.
I will be visiting her this afternoon.
My dad got Covid a couple days after my mom & he was in & out of rehabs & hospitals ever since. He almost made it back to the Assisted Living at one point, but then had aspiration pneumonia.
My dads funeral was Thursday afternoon. It was actually quite beautiful. In our religion we focus more on life and he will live on through the peoples lives he has touched and through our memories & actions of our daily lives. He is with God now.
My dad taught us many lessons but even up to that last day or two, he was still smiling. He was resilient to the very end.
Thank you, once again, for all your precious comments and prayers.
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?!

11/02 - 146.5 - Good ol' early wakeup to commute. Was under maintenance but over goal calories yesterday, my own fault. I was mindlessly eating. Glad I didn't go up further. Water was back on track at over 90oz. Goal for today is to stick to water. I'll be in a classroom all day so not a lot of movement. Hopefully we'll get breaks frequently enough to get moving.

Previous Day's Comments10/29 - Sometimes I wonder if my body is playing tricks on me. A sudden unexplained gain that just so happens to fall on the end of the round? Followed by a much more expected weight one day later? Hmmmm, suspicious. Oh well, moving on. Cold and super windy here these last few days. Haven't taken the pup because the last time I did, I nearly got blown away. Hopefully today is calmer and I don't have to coordinate between work meetings to get outside for one. Still feeling okay, BF still sounding horrible. Doing my best to keep up with my tea/supplement regime. Reishi, ashwagandha, and cinnamon in mornings, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and cayenne in evenings. Gut boosting, inflammatory reducing, and immune assisting. Zinc and a Vit C/D on hand as well if I feel my diet isn't sufficient to provide those.
10/30 - Now I'm really confused! I expected to be up, especially with a later night snack involved (granted, just a handful of cashews, but still a late snack). I'm sure this will bounce back up tomorrow, it seems oddly low given how I haven't exactly been the best food wise. Also, could be lack of water. I only hit about 70-75 oz water yesterday versus my normal 90+ oz. Still good since doc wants me to drink 1/2 body weight in oz, but lower than normal. Bit of a dry throat this morning, thankfully not crazy sore. Started off with a tea right away and now on to room temperature water to sooth it better. Thinking of breaking my fast to make a honey-mushroom shot for immunity and to sooth the dryness a bit more.
10/31 - I don't trust this. Either my body or the scale is playing tricks with me. 144.x is elusive and has been for months. I wasn't careful with food yesterday (BF made breakfast tacos, I had a bagel and peanut butter for lunch, and finally got my senses straight to make stuffed pepper soup for dinner. With a roll. Then BF wanted my homemade brownies which I couldn't resist and had a piece). It'll probably show up tomorrow. This is beyond odd to have 144 two days in a row like that. I don't want to hope too much, but part of me is excited this may be the end of my months-long adjustment (about every 10lbs, looking at my historical data). I have a 5k today. I don't think I'll try to run it all, I haven't run in weeks due to work and I'm just not feeling it 100%. I have a dry throat again this morning, drinking tea before I set off to walk this. Dang. Was hoping this would be a good benchmark for my actual 5k in 3 weeks. Will try to run where I can manage without overdoing it or causing injury. Will have pup so probably have to pause to drop her off before continuing it at some point. At least the fresh air should do me some good!
11/01 - This is more what I've been expecting. Not quite enough water (minimum goal), pizza, and holy moly the soreness! My knee hurt horribly last night. So bad that it starting shooting pain up into my hip. This morning is better, but I can feel the tension in the outside of my leg from knee to hip. Also major soreness in quads. Tried to stretch yesterday -- seems I did a better job with my hamstrings than quads. Ah, live and learn. Allergies got me. They've been really bad in my area for a few days and that run outside stuffed me up good. I used a Neti pot this morning and cleared out some gunk so I can breathe and feel better already. Will take my allergy meds today for sure (and the nasal spray!) Today will work on water and better food choices. Have leftover stuffed pepper soup for lunch, at least!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 - 187.8
10/31 - 187.8 Did well until last evening when I mindlessly ate far more than necessary for dinner. Didn’t meet calorie target, but at least think I stayed under maintenance.
11/1 - 185.8 Thankfully at least a little of the previous weigh-ins seem to be water weight. Very good day yesterday. Didn’t get exercise in like I hoped, but did get 10,000 steps, stayed within calorie goals, and meal prepped for the whole week ahead. Hoping I can stick with it as I know it’s going to be a stressful week.
11/2 - 185.6 Despite a busy day at work, my meal prepping helped me stay within my calorie goals. At the end of the day when I wanted to relax with a beer, I went for a short walk instead. Now up early to being work again.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 144.5 - This is a nice surprise. After last weekend's indulgences, I expected the extra weight to hang on a bit longer. I have nothing planned for this weekend, except for bulb planting if the rain stops on Sunday, so I will try to stay on track.
10/30 - 145 - Pizza for supper last night.
10/31 - 145.5
11/01 - 145.5 - As I was sitting here at my desk thinking about what to write, a spider dropped from the ceiling directly on my keyboard. I hope that adrenaline rush burned off some of my weekend calories.
11/02 - 146 - I need to work on more water and more movement.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 219.8 WHAT?! I will say my body was just running through water yesterday. I kept drinking more and more throughout the day. I went home after work and worked out. Set a new 30 minute PR on the Peloton. Woke up this morning and did 40 more minutes. So we're seeing 2 workouts between yesterday's weigh-in and today. First time seeing teens!
10/30 - 218.9
10/31 - 219.4
11/01 - 220.2 Honestly not surprised because halloween weekend is crazy. Party, getting everything ready for trick or treat, etc. really put exercise on the back-burner. Still worked out every day but just not as hard. I also think the time that I weigh on weekend vs Monday makes an impact and my Monday bike rides are always easy to ease into the week.
11/02 - 221.1 My weight is so strange, I swear. Every day I do essentially the same thing with diet, exercise, movement, water, etc. Never makes sense, but still keep pushing every day. Feels like I've been stuck in the 220s forever. Just let me get down to teens and stay there please!

Ok, well, at least my average isn’t rising. The floor has taken longer than planned because the guy’s assistant won’t show up for work, but hopefully he can wrap it up today and we can reassemble the house and eat normally again. I’ve decided that since books, including cookbooks, and other stuff are all out of their homes, it’s a good time to “Marie Kondo” a lot of things!
10/30 - 179.6
Floors are finished—yay! Now to put everything away (and not all over my office floor!). And now I can get back to eating conscientiously. I’m happy and relieved that I didn’t gain this past week. Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Halloween, Feliz Dia de Los Muertos, Blessed Samhain! I kept to my calorie goal yesterday, but have a little lag time from heavier days to deal with. All good!

I confess—I ate several Hershey’s minis last night. Oh well! Now I’m off for a long walk with the pupper! I’ll do better today. 😁
11/02 - 179.6
Aaack — ate over calorie goal. Time to get serious again. I want to get out of the 70s by the end of the year. No more evening snacks!!! I was doing well with that but have backslid the past week.

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.

OK peeps, this represents several things. First and foremost, it is my lethargic approach as of late. It also represents a fundraising event last night that was in the “taste of” mode, offering a little bit of a LOT of things. I partook of all. It was a salty-sweet sensual / emotional eating catastrophe train wreck. And finally … too much information.
No hugs please. What I need a time-out in the corner. I will bounce back.

SW: 206.2
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 206.4 56 net carbs yesterday, step goal achieved, and Pelo ride done. Why the uptick? Bodies work in mysterious ways. 🤷♀️ I know it’s nothing I did, so it’s all good. It may be lingering hormones. I’m so close to that 1 in front of the number that I can taste it, so I’ll keep pressing forward.
10/30: 206.2 It’s good to see the number drop again, but I do think the carby pizza I had last night showed itself this morning. My fingers were a little puffy when I woke up. 85 net carbs, strength training done, but slightly short on my step goal. It’s all good. I’m going to make today count!
10/31: 206.2 I’m not surprised I didn’t drop this morning. I had a girls day out with my daughters yesterday and we wound up at a conveyor sushi restaurant for dinner. I kept it reasonable though, and managed to keep in my calorie goal. Carbs came in at 103 for the day. Step goal achieved though! On to today.
11/1: 206.0 Kind of annoyed it’s not more. I had a great day yesterday- 59 net carbs and step goal achieved. But maybe I need to work on my thinking around how my body should behave in response to my actions. We all know the body does it’s own thing, so maybe I need to readjust my expectations. But also, this could still be the sushi water weight hanging around too. Idk. It’s Monday though, and a fresh, shiny new week. Let’s roll!
11/2 204.4 There it is! Of course, I had some digestive issues last night that probably helped get me that number, but it’s a fair trade off. I think I’ve become sensitive to cooked cauliflower of all things. This is not the first time, but it has been a few weeks since I last ate the stuff. I love cauliflower in any form, so this saddens me. 😢 56 net carbs and strength training done. I do think I’m going to reduce my step goal back down to 10,000. It’s been a stretch to hit 11,500 a lot of days lately, which stresses me out more than it should.

I eat whatever I want just in moderation. so far it's working for me. I realize this could change, and when that happens I'll tweak it until I find something else that works.

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.

10/29 216.4 (-.4) Almost fifty pounds down since May. That’s amazing. I hope to be down fifty more by May of next year. I may skip my indulgence meal this week. It really threw me off last week. No organized exercise today, so I’ll have to really pay attention to my calories.
10/30 215.2 (-1.6) Yes…finally a bit of a whoosh. 216 has always been my stuck weight. I’d diet and get there and then get stuck long enough to give up. I’ve only passed it once in the last 20 years. I was so careful to stay on plan yesterday and to get my water. Today is Orange Theory Fitness and tomorrow is hiking about 6 miles. Looking forward to a good and healthy week.
10/31 215.6 (-1.2) Worked at out OTF yesterday. Doing lunges, I noticed that I’m pretty stable on my feet, which has not been the case in the past. My balance is definitely improving. Hiking this morning on a cold fall day in Colorado. Happy Halloween!
11/1 215 (-1.8) My sister and I planned to hike six miles yesterday. It was really foggy in the mountains and when we got to the top, it was drizzling and we were concerned we’d be climbing down the steep parts in snow. We cut the hike short (4 miles) and finished before the weather got worse. It was cold. I need to pull out my long underwear. Still beautiful, as always. Busy day today with no scheduled exercise.
11/2 214.6 (-2.2) After bouncing around so much last round, I’m finally losing a bit at a time. I skipped my indulgence meal last week, so I’ll be ready for one on Friday. I’m spending that time and those calories going out to lunch with a good friend. I can’t wait. Swimming today. How are we halfway through this challenge already?

10/29 / 199 / Second day in a row holding my weight in the 100's! Woo hoo.
10/30 / 197.6 / I was low on my steps yesterday as I had a volunteer event at night and then it was dark and snowy and I was tired. Nevertheless, my food adjusts to account for it. So happy to be putting a bit more distance between myself and the 200's!
10/31 / 197.6 / Had the most intense Peloton ride for me to date yesterday, the sweat was literally dripping off of me!
11/1 / 197.4 / Halloween was fun, had a fun sized bar or two but nothing crazy and fit it within my calories. 35th birthday today, feeling reflective and happy at how this year has gone.. looking forward to another fun year of progress ahead!
11/2 / 198.4 / Ate a bigger birthday meal last night so there is definitely more food in transit. My husband left for a 5 night business trip so it will be a quieter week around the house.

10/31: 178.4 Well, that's going in the wrong direction altogether! I walked a lot and ate slightly under my calories, but I was up a lot with a teething baby, so I wonder if not getting enough sleep has to do with my slight jump. Not that there's much I can do about it!
Oh, well. I will count my blessings, which are many, and remember that tomorrow is another day.
11/1: 179.0 I expected this, because I went over my calories yesterday. I underestimated how many calories my oven-baked chicken wings would be once I covered them in homemade barbeque sauce. Oh, well. They were delicious.

All the more reason to stick to our guns and STAY AWAY from things not in the plan. Happy to see this drop. TMI helped too. Travel today, unfortunately. Seriously low on tile for the bathroom reno so away I go this morning. Back this evening by 6:00 I hope. Lunch out. Dinner at home is the plan.

10/31 …..188.4 ….. (Trend weight 187.3) Halloween Candy. End of Story.
11/01 …..189.4 ….. (Trend weight 187.7) Pizza and candy. All things an overweight diabetic should not eat. I haven’t been logging either. Just log breakfast everyday then never get around to logging the rest of the meals or the exercise. Still struggling with others in the house right now. I’ve got to find some time for me too.
11/02 …..189.0 ….. (Trend weight 187.8) Scale down but trend is up and that is disturbing but motivating. First snow last night in Northern Michigan which is still stuck to the ground this morning. But the sun is shining (somewhat) and I’m feeling pretty good today so I’m going to run with that. We are halfway through this challenge already? Wait a minute, didn't it just start? Wow, I've got some serious work to do!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 157.2 - Did Jazzercise at the in-person location for the first time in 17 months. Sucked wind through my mask the whole time. Will probably go back to virtual class for a while more. Ate a little bit below calories - which I am definitely not trying to do - since we were at a hockey game and didn’t want to eat junk food just to fill calories.
10/30: 156.5 - Did a 5.46 mile hike. I was a bit hungry yesterday, particularly after dinner, even though my stomach felt full. Powered through with drinking some water and waiting. Will definitely try to up the protein today, but it is a struggle for me.
10/31: 156.3 - This was our week for sporting events. NHL game on Thursday and college football game last night. Planned the food for the most part and stayed within calories. Worked out in the morning along with a long walk from the car to the stadium.
11/01: 156.5 - Slept in yesterday until 9am - very unusual for me so ended up not doing my workout until nearly 11am. Planned my eating and included Reese’s Peanut Butter cups as part of the dessert. Wow, after eating dark chocolate almost everyday, the Reese’s really wasn’t worth the calories - way too sweet. I’m glad to know that I won’t tempted by the leftover Halloween candy.
11/02: 156.5 - Rainy day yesterday, so didn’t go for a walk, but did an hour of Jazzercise in the morning. Ate within calories

10/29-168-No time to exercise but worked yesterday and only sat down to eat the healthy lunch I brought.
10/30-168-Went out to see the horse and we walked a mile together. Went to work, then ate chips on the way home. 😬
11/2-173-Well, goodness. Lots of travel to spend my dad’s 84th birthday with him. Lots of heavy food and drinks. Next, traveled to my uncles for more food, drink and visiting. The trip home was long and here I am. I had lemon water cheese and crackers for dinner last night and can’t wait to get out and move today.11 -
