Mfp set my daily calorie intake at (1,554) I try to stay around that amount. I eat whatever I want in moderation, and will adjust as needed. (As some of you know) things can change when it comes to weight loss. I'll have to keep an eye on it and change accordingly to make sure I will still be losing.
Welcome to the group! Love your can do attitude. 🥰2 -
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: 200
November weight lost: 5lbs 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 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.
November 15: 201 Cheat day water gain coming off slowly, partially due to muscles holding from exercise. I am sore! Don't get excited about flutations, the body has a lot to keep up with and sometimes needs to hold extra fluid.
November 16: 200 I always weigh daily to see the trends and how different foods affect my body. Knowing these effects keeps me from bring concerned when the scale doesn't read what I want it to

I knew that I needed a mood boost this morning, so I thought I’d share it. 🥰

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 60 min.)
Weekly goals almost met! Only worked out 2 times.
Nov. 15 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 16 - 158 (home cooked/ Yoga 60 min.)
😮!! I’m really surprised to see that today! I really wasn't thinking I’d manage to lose that much in a month, usually I maybe can lose two pounds. But I’ve really been following my goals, I’m not restricting delicious foods just being aware why I eat so much in the first place. I was only expecting to hit 160 and stay there. Now I’m really believing I can actually hit my goal of 157. Feeling super motivated!

11/16: 294.4⬆️ (+0.4 oz) I had an appointment late yesterday afternoon, to have all my vital organs checked out. That are around and just below, and behind my rib cage. I had to do a complete fast, which meant (no food or liquids, including water) from around 7 pm the night before to after 5 pm yesterday. My body is used to having a lot of water, and I believe this is the main reason for the slight gain this morning. I stayed below my daily calorie intake at dinner.

My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 61 years old and from the Midwest USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
Starting Weight (from Oct 31st): 188.2
Goal: 183.2 (Five lb Loss)
Actual Loss for November: xxxxx
**************************************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.
11/15-……191.0…..(Trend Weight 189.3)….. I ate leftover Chinese food from my travel day. Other meals were good too. Snacks were definitely better. I honestly thought I would see a zero-point-something drop but not today. Something I have to look forward to, I guess.
11/16-……189.6…..(Trend Weight 189.4)….. Meals were perfectly on point yesterday although exercise level was low. So happy for this drop. I snuck into DGS Halloween basket last night. That needs to no become a habit.
11/17-.…..xxxxx…..(Trend Weight xxxxx)…..

Vigorous training yesterday, both resistance and stairmaster. So no gain today could be a good thing portending a drop. That's my hope! Yesterday was tough in that I did two meals that were fairly high cal for me and high in sodium without filling me up for long. I still came in under. Will try for better choices today.

November 8 - 198.8 (Food was good yesterday and my exercise was the most it's been all month. Time of the month started.)
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.)

@ashleycarole86 what are you sewing? I am making my very slow way through a cross stitch Christmas stocking. It was going to be for my sisters daughter but she went and had another child two years ago ( yep I did say slowly) and there is no way I am doing another one that fast.
It is now being put away for when my kids have kids heh heh

That looks like a fun project. I am a VERY newbie sewer but my friend is teaching me. It's something fun to do together. I am working on a set of Christmas placemats, I actually started them last year so I get you about the slow progress
Goal is to have them ready for this Christmas!

FINALLY THE QUOTE WORKED LIKE BEFORE THEY CHANGED STUFF!!!!I am really at a loss with how to copy my last entry and add to it. Can someone tell me how to do it? I typed this all out today. I would like all my past comments together.
9/14/20-255 lbs
5/3/21-240.5 lbs
5/14/21-232.2 lbs MFP start date.
11/1/21-181.8 lbs

11/3/21-180.4 lbs
11/4/21-180.4 lbs-159 minutes on the Elliptical.
11/5/21-180.4 lbs
11/6/21-181.6 lbs- 190 minutes on the Elliptical. stayed on track, just the uptick fluctuations I do, before a drop.
11/7/21-180 lbs- 200 minutes on the Elliptical-15 miles, Finally hit my 4th October weight goal. Had met 3 end of month
weight goals in October early but not the 4th one I made to be 180 or below till now.
11/8/21-180 lbs
11/9/21-179.2 lbs- 210 minutes on the Elliptical-15 miles
11/10/21-179.2 lbs
11/11/21-179.2 lbs-210 minutes on the Elliptical-16 miles
11/12/21-178.2 lbs-76.8 lbs lost of goal of 133 lbs
11/13/21-178.2 lbs
11/14/21-176.6 lbs Down 5.2 lbs. My November goal was 5 lbs because I figured it would slow down soon. I've been
averaging 10 lbs/month. 78.4 lbs lost so far!
Did 223 minutes today on my Elliptical. I wanted to finish the last 10 minutes of the last movie and
wanted to hit the 16 miles!
11/15/21-178.8 lbs :-( Doesn't make sense. Did that elliptical work out yesterday and only 1,266 calories and stayed totally on track
but I usually do have a uptick before a drop. So hopefully will drop back off and its must be water being held
on to.
11/16/21-178.8 lbs- Just remembered why I probably had the uptick in weight. I made chicken leg quarters and used a rotisserie seasoning salt. So should be all be water weight which will drop in a few days. Did 212 minutes on my Elliptical today for 16 miles.
Also I got into size 10 jeans today! The 12's were loose and the butt hanging some that I was constantly tugging up on the waist.

Current Weight: 162.6
November Weight lost so far: 0
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!)
November 14 162.8
November 15 162.8. It’s my 6 month anniversary of logging in today. Plus I managed to run up the hill to my house without stopping this morning (it’s very steep and long). I’ve had a great weekend with friends too so all in all a fab start to the week. Happy Monday folks ☺️

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: 200
November weight lost: 5lbs 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.
November 15: 201 Cheat day water gain coming off slowly, partially due to muscles holding from exercise. I am sore! Don't get excited about flutations, the body has a lot to keep up with and sometimes needs to hold extra fluid.
November 16: 200 I always weigh daily to see the trends and how different foods affect my body. Knowing these effects keeps me from bring concerned when the scale doesn't read what I want it to
November 17: 200 late dinner then straight to bed showing on the scale today,not my plan. Feeling a big frustrated. Considering have a cheat meal rather than a cheat day Saturday especially with Thanksgiving coming up and that will definetly be a cheat day.5 -

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. 12 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 13 - 159 (went out)

Nov. 15 - 160 (home cooked)
Nov. 16 - 158 (home cooked)
Nov. 17 - 158 (home cooked/ Zumba 60 min.)
Ended up having a tough night and missed Yoga. Struggled to not get fast food, but I didn’t. Happy to see I’m still on track even through all that. Definitely gonna do some Zumba tonight, always feel better after dancing!

Wednesday is my normal weigh-in. Glad to see some change going down. So far 1.5lbs
November 10 185lbs
I have been having problems logging into Community with the app. I have to go through the internet. Wednesday is my normal weigh-in and I lost.
November 17 184.5 lbs ⬇️ My regular Wednesday weigh-in. This month has been more consistent in the weight fluctuations. I am down 1.5 lbs mid month. A couple things I have noticed for myself is not drinking enough water does make a difference in the peaks of my weight gain. Always been a big water drinker but I have to be more diligent. Also reduces the carbs in the morning have been helping. Carbs are my weakness.

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.)
