Hi there! I’m Athena, I’ve been struggling on and off with my weight for a good while and was recommended to try accountability buddies to help each other reach our goals. Thought this would be a good route for that! Let’s see if we can survive turkey day! 😆
My plan for the weeks ahead are to focus on eating at home and only go out to eat on Saturdays/Sundays (restaurant/fast food) and to focus on portion controlling. I’m also planning to work out for an hour three times a week.
Currently, I am only 4 pounds away from my heaviest but determined to make that number bigger this month.
Highest: 165 in 2017
Goal: 130
Current: 161
End of month goal: 157 (6 pounds)
Nov. 1 - 163 (home cooked/ walked 15 min.)
Nov. 2 - 161 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 3 - 160 (home cooked/ Zumba 60 min.)
Nov. 4 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 5 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 6 - 161 (went out)
Nov. 7 - 161 (went out/ Zumba 60 min.)
Weekly goal met!
Nov. 8 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 9 - 159 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 10 - 159 (home cooked)
Nov. 11 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 12 - 160 (home cooked/ TBD)
Ended up not doing Pilates last night, had to pull some overtime. So gotta do an hour of something, likely walking! Last night was a struggle so I chose to eat two cookies with dinner. Glad I didn’t give into my full pattern and that I didn’t gain from that either. Considering this a win!

Actual Loss for November: xxxxx
**************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/01[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia]…...189.4…..(Trend Weight 187.7)….. Pizza and Candy does not a slender person make.
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/02[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.8)….. Scale down. Trend up. Not good. I’m going to work harder in November. October was a mess. Especially with surgery and so much long-distance medical travel. Even with Thanksgiving coming up this month, I hope things will be much much better.
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/03[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.9}…..Good news. No cancer found in the lumpectomy. What a relief! Today is my DD#2 birthday (the one who lives with me. Today will be special dinner, cake, ice cream and the trimmings. So many things to celebrate today. Tomorrow, back on track!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/04[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.1)….. Okay. The celebrations are all over. Today I will pawn the leftovers off on my workers and make a good dietary plan regardless of what the others in the house do. Today I take my grandsons to their hair appointments. I always get them lunch or dinner afterward (dinner today because it’s a school day). I will not be ordering for myself. Getting serious here . I need a good streak!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/05[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..188.8…..(Trend Weight 188.2)…..Diet on point yesterday so there’s the drop. Still trending up, however, due to all the bad days since surgery. Next stop…..turning that around too!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/06[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..188.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. Progress!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/07[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. A day very similar to yesterday except no TMI and a little short on steps & water. TMI makes a big difference on the scale.
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/08[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.2…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. Lots of calorie burn yesterday raking for over 3 hours. But too many high cal snacks last night too. You can’t outrun the fork!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/09[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.4)….. No TMI again. Very early weigh-in after, essentially, no sleep and all those other excuses. Yesterday it was not on my daughter. It was on me. I know what good habits are. I know what low calorie is and what low carb can do to help me. I recognize the right foods. It’s time to stop glancing at it all and start staring at what I need to do. It has been out of control since just before my surgery.
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/10-[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.6)….. bingeing is not the way to lose weight. I’ve got to get control here!
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/11-[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.6)….. For every obvious reason, I hate this new format. Too limiting….
[b][b][b][color=fuchsia]11/12-[/b][/b][/b][/color=fuchsia].…..189.4…..(Trend Weight 188.8)…..Still navigating the new format and still hating it. Dr. appointment yesterday revealed that I will need to see a cardiologist after I failed the two pre-op EKG’s. I also will need to see an endocronologist for my T2D. Time to get serious about my diet and exercise plans again!

Highest Weight: 202.7 (in may 21 but was probably 240-250lbs in my 20s)
Current Weight: 162.6
November Weight lost so far: up 0.4
November 1 162.6
November 2 162.8
November 3 163.3 post-TOM bounce - find these hard to handle 😬
November 4 163.7 fingers crossed this is the peak now…
November 5 164.1 argh trying to hold my nerve - when I panic I end up restricting and binging. This happens every cycle but I find it so hard every time 😖
November 6 164.4 peak is slowing at least 😂
November 7 165.1
November 8 165.3 didn’t check in yesterday as had a family celebration- but had weighed at least. Keep checking back to last cycle to see that this ‘bump’ (which feels more like a mountain right now) is normal, and it totally is for me. I just can’t seem to get use to it and keep wanting to do something drastic. Holding my nerve….
November 9 165.4
November 10 165.3 phew! This is my trend weight - actual weight reading is down a full lb in the last couple of days so hopeful the trend will follow
november 11 164.8 yay!!
November12 164. Feeling much more settled now. Also noticing a big improvement in my flexibility today which has given me a real boost.
November 13 163. The trend is looking much better. Tough weekend ahead though - lots of socialising. I navigated a night out last night really well though (can under calories and just 2 G&Ts all night so no hangover - winning!)4 -
I'm back, yay!

I’m Marsha. I’m 54 years old, 5’9” tall and my first goal is to get under 200 pounds. My ultimate and hopefully maintainable goal is 175 pounds….
Highest weight: 298 - I've never admitted this anywhere, even my MFP profile shows a much lower weight
Starting Weight: 205 - I have gotten under 200 but haven't been able to maintain it.
Current weight: 199! Whoop! Whoop!
November weight lost: 6lbs includes 3lbs of water, half way to November goal
November Goals:
Lose 10 pounds - 3lbs water, 7lbs just under 2lbs per week a bit ambitious
Continue to Log Daily
Continue to Weigh-in daily
'Flash' everything in my news feed (not working because photos won't uploand to MFP 90% of the time) before I eat it for accountability, logging isn't having the same effect. Honestly I don't look at anyones food logs, who has that kind of time?!?

November 8: 201
November 9: 201
November 10: 200 - ready to kiss the 200's goodbye, for good!
November 11: 199 - Whoop! Whoop!
November 12: 199 - the dilemma, tomorrow is cheat day.Cheat day always results in a temporary weight gain, usually for a day or two. Cheat day has several reasons for being important to my weight loss. Knowing that I have an upcoming cheat day where I can eat whatever and how much I want makes it super easy to stick to the food plan the other 6 days. Also, spiking calories keeps my metabolic rate, thyroid and hormones from slowing down. Teetering on the border of 200's makes me want to put off cheat day. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. It is more important to keep metabolic, thyroid and hormones going for continued weight loss rather than focus on the number on the scale. Cheat day it is. lol
November 13: 199.0 Cheat day has arrived. Scale has been stable for 3 days. Time to shake things up.4 -

Hi there! I’m Athena, I’ve been struggling on and off with my weight for a good while and was recommended to try accountability buddies to help each other reach our goals. Thought this would be a good route for that! Let’s see if we can survive turkey day! 😆
My plan for the weeks ahead are to focus on eating at home and only go out to eat on Saturdays/Sundays (restaurant/fast food) and to focus on portion controlling. I’m also planning to work out for an hour three times a week.
Currently, I am only 4 pounds away from my heaviest but determined to make that number bigger this month.
Highest: 165 in 2017
Goal: 130
Current: 161
End of month goal: 157 (6 pounds)
Nov. 1 - 163 (home cooked/ walked 15 min.)
Nov. 2 - 161 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 3 - 160 (home cooked/ Zumba 60 min.)
Nov. 4 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 5 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 6 - 161 (went out)
Nov. 7 - 161 (went out/ Zumba 60 min.)
Weekly goal met!
Nov. 8 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 9 - 159 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 10 - 159 (home cooked)
Nov. 11 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 12 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 13 - 159 (went out/ walk 60 min.)
Eh! Pulled overtime again and had another long day. Happy to see I’m focused enough on my goals. Making sure to not miss Zumba tomorrow. I’m eating out again so I’m going to be mindful of how much I eat today and tomorrow. We got this!

November 9 - 198.6 (Donated blood yesterday and had a great food day. Lots of exercise already today so hoping to see the scale down even more tomorrow.)
November 10 - 199.2 (Odd week on the scale this week. I did eat a big salty snack before bed even though it was within my calorie range. Trend weight is still down for the week and no days spiked back into the 200s so still feeling great.)
November 11 - 197.4 (There we go, body finally released that! Things have been busy but my husband and I continue to stay on track. Looking forward to making some progress for the rest of the month.)
November 12 - 196.6 (I got lots of exercise yesterday and had a good day of eating. My husband and I got a massage as well.)
November 13 - 195 (Got my steps and exercised too, ate well. Happy the weekend is here!)

Great job, you are almost ready to hit 100 lbs lost! "Weigh" to go!2 -
Highest Weight: 202.7 (in may 21 but was probably 240-250lbs in my 20s)
Current Weight: 162.6
November Weight lost so far: up 0.2
November 1 162.6
November 2 162.8
November 3 163.3 post-TOM bounce - find these hard to handle 😬
November 4 163.7 fingers crossed this is the peak now…
November 5 164.1 argh trying to hold my nerve - when I panic I end up restricting and binging. This happens every cycle but I find it so hard every time 😖
November 6 164.4 peak is slowing at least 😂
November 7 165.1
November 8 165.3 didn’t check in yesterday as had a family celebration- but had weighed at least. Keep checking back to last cycle to see that this ‘bump’ (which feels more like a mountain right now) is normal, and it totally is for me. I just can’t seem to get use to it and keep wanting to do something drastic. Holding my nerve….
November 9 165.4
November 10 165.3 phew! This is my trend weight - actual weight reading is down a full lb in the last couple of days so hopeful the trend will follow
november 11 164.8 yay!!
November12 164. Feeling much more settled now. Also noticing a big improvement in my flexibility today which has given me a real boost.
November 13 163. The trend is looking much better. Tough weekend ahead though - lots of socialising. I navigated a night out last night really well though (can under calories and just 2 G&Ts all night so no hangover - winning!)

I’m Marsha. I’m 54 years old, 5’9” tall and my first goal is to get under 200 pounds. My ultimate and hopefully maintainable goal is 175 pounds….
Highest weight: 298 - I've never admitted this anywhere, even my MFP profile shows a much lower weight
Starting Weight: 205 - I have gotten under 200 but haven't been able to maintain it.
Current weight: 202
November weight lost: 3lbs includes 3lbs of water - post cheat day
November Goals:
Lose 10 pounds - 3lbs water, 7lbs just under 2lbs per week a bit ambitious
Continue to Log Daily
Continue to Weigh-in daily
'Flash' everything in my news feed (not working because photos won't uploand to MFP 90% of the time) before I eat it for accountability, logging isn't having the same effect. Honestly I don't look at anyones food logs, who has that kind of time?!?
November 1: 205
November 2: 202 - the joy of water loss[/quote]
November 3: 201
November 4: 202 - water loss is over, the real work begins.
November 5: 201
November 6: 200 - Cheat Day!
November 7: 202 - back to working it
November 8: 201
November 9: 201
November 10: 200 - ready to kiss the 200's goodbye, for good!
November 11: 199 - Whoop! Whoop!
November 12: 199 - the dilemma, tomorrow is cheat day.Cheat day always results in a temporary weight gain, usually for a day or two. Cheat day has several reasons for being important to my weight loss. Knowing that I have an upcoming cheat day where I can eat whatever and how much I want makes it super easy to stick to the food plan the other 6 days. Also, spiking calories keeps my metabolic rate, thyroid and hormones from slowing down. Teetering on the border of 200's makes me want to put off cheat day. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. It is more important to keep metabolic, thyroid and hormones going for continued weight loss rather than focus on the number on the scale. Cheat day it is. lol
November 13: 199.0 Cheat day has arrived. Scale has been stable for 3 days. Time to shake things up.
November 14: 202, post cheat day gain which will be gone in a day or two. To gain 3lbs would require over 12,000 excess calories in one day. Even on my worst cheat days for me that is not a possible number. Also, subtract basic resting metabolism and the required calories for an actual fat gain are even higher. This is why not to get too excited at daily fluctuations. Carbs hold water. A change in food can cause delays in elimination that will show up on the scale but will resolve in a day or two. The scale is only 1 and not the only method of tracking weight.3 -

Hi there! I’m Athena, I’ve been struggling on and off with my weight for a good while and was recommended to try accountability buddies to help each other reach our goals. Thought this would be a good route for that! Let’s see if we can survive turkey day! 😆
My plan for the weeks ahead are to focus on eating at home and only go out to eat on Saturdays/Sundays (restaurant/fast food) and to focus on portion controlling. I’m also planning to work out for an hour three times a week.
Currently, I am only 4 pounds away from my heaviest but determined to make that number bigger this month.
Highest: 165 in 2017
Goal: 130
Current: 161
End of month goal: 157 (6 pounds)
Nov. 1 - 163 (home cooked/ walked 15 min.)
Nov. 2 - 161 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 3 - 160 (home cooked/ Zumba 60 min.)
Nov. 4 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 5 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 6 - 161 (went out)
Nov. 7 - 161 (went out/ Zumba 60 min.)
Weekly goals met!
Nov. 8 - 161 (home cooked)
Nov. 9 - 159 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
Nov. 10 - 159 (home cooked)
Nov. 11 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 12 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 13 - 159 (went out)
Nov. 14 - 159 (went out/ Zumba)
Weekly goals almost met! Only worked out 2 times.
Oh! 😮 Surprised by this! I didn’t walk and ate all the restaurant food and had drinks last night. I ate really light before but thought I was going to reset. Really surprised about this. Won’t reach my goal this week of 3x workouts, but I’ll try again next week! Super pumped for Zumba now!

**************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************
11/01…...189.4…..(Trend Weight 187.7)….. Pizza and Candy does not a slender person make.
11/02.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.8)….. Scale down. Trend up. Not good. I’m going to work harder in November. October was a mess. Especially with surgery and so much long-distance medical travel. Even with Thanksgiving coming up this month, I hope things will be much much better.
11/03.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 187.9}…..Good news. No cancer found in the lumpectomy. What a relief! Today is my DD#2 birthday (the one who lives with me. Today will be special dinner, cake, ice cream and the trimmings. So many things to celebrate today. Tomorrow, back on track!
11/04.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.1)….. Okay. The celebrations are all over. Today I will pawn the leftovers off on my workers and make a good dietary plan regardless of what the others in the house do. Today I take my grandsons to their hair appointments. I always get them lunch or dinner afterward (dinner today because it’s a school day). I will not be ordering for myself. Getting serious here . I need a good streak!
11/05.…..188.8…..(Trend Weight 188.2)…..Diet on point yesterday so there’s the drop. Still trending up, however, due to all the bad days since surgery. Next stop…..turning that around too!
11/06.…..188.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. Progress!
11/07.…..189.0…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. A day very similar to yesterday except no TMI and a little short on steps & water. TMI makes a big difference on the scale.
11/08.…..189.2…..(Trend Weight 188.2)….. Lots of calorie burn yesterday raking for over 3 hours. But too many high cal snacks last night too. You can’t outrun the fork!
11/09.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.4)….. No TMI again. Very early weigh-in after, essentially, no sleep and all those other excuses. Yesterday it was not on my daughter. It was on me. I know what good habits are. I know what low calorie is and what low carb can do to help me. I recognize the right foods. It’s time to stop glancing at it all and start staring at what I need to do. It has been out of control since just before my surgery.
11/10-.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.6)….. bingeing is not the way to lose weight. I’ve got to get control here!
11/11-.…..189.6…..(Trend Weight 188.6)….. For every obvious reason, I hate this new format. Too limiting….
11/12-.…..189.4…..(Trend Weight 188.8)…..Still navigating the new format and still hating it. Dr. appointment yesterday revealed that I will need to see a cardiologist after I failed the two pre-op EKG’s. I also will need to see an endocronologist for my T2D. Time to get serious about my diet and exercise plans again!
11/13-.…..189.2…..(Trend Weight 189.0)….. Scale going down again, trend weight going up again. Look what I did to myself! Hoping for another good day. Yesterday’s meals were excellent. Snacks, meh!
11/14-.…..191.0…..(Trend Weight 189.2)….. Traveled yesterday. Weight showed up from dinner out and lots of car driving (inactivity). I’ll work it off today as much as possible. Obviously I am disappointed that one meal would make such a negative difference.
