wow...I've been going over my updates chart & I see that my posts are not all accurate!
So, I am starting over (nearly from scratch here...had some trouble with a chart on my phone but it's fixed now)
I have been back to walking outdoors since Wed. 10/13/21...1.2 miles, 44 mins., 125 calories ~ and I did this 3x, rode my new trike a couple of times now as well...my RunKeeper chart tells me that the day I logged a bike ride I worked off 300 calories! I'm not sure how accurate RK is with riding vs walking...but I guess I'll take every calorie output I can get at this point! LOL ...anyway...back to the challenge....
F71 5'4.25"
Highest weight: 198 lbs 10.15, '21 (thru 10/22 when I started back here)
Current weight: 193.2 lbs
Challenge goal weight: 175 lbs
Ultimate goal weight: 135 lbs
Day 1: 10/22 198 lbs
Day 2: 10/23 196.4 lbs
Day 3: 10/24 195.4 lbs
Day 4: 10/25 195.4 lbs
Day 5: 10/26 194.6 lbs
Day 6: 10/27 195.4 lbs
Day 7: 10/28 194.6 lbs again...holding...
Day 8: 10/29 193.2 lbs FINALLY. PROGRESS!!
Day 9: 10/30 193.2 lbs
Day 10: 10/31 193.2 lbs
Day 11 11/1 193.2 lbs (I'm beginning to think I'm better at maintaining than losing!! But at least it's not going back UP!)
Day 12: 11/2 192.4 lbs
Day 13 11/3 194 lbs (Dinner at my daughter's last night. Delicious home-made broccoli soup, 2 rolls, and the Halloween chocolate that the kiddos saved for their Gma Jenn! Plus, the 31st is my granddaughter's birthday, so there were leftover cupcakes....AGH!! delicious, and VERY dangerous....
oh well, as they say in the funny papers ~ "Onward and upward, my friends!" ....back to the work-out we go!!!)
Day 14 11/4 191.8 lbs Weird thing with the scale this morning...TWO weights kept showing up: this, and 194.6 lbs, which would also make sense...but I'm taking the 191.8 cuz out of 6or7 tries, this one came up at least 4x...so I'm thinking it's legit?!! I'll find out for sure tomorrow when I weigh in again...see where it lands.
Day 15 11/5 192.4 lbs ok...now THIS is starting to make more sense. I'm just gonna take this as accurate (got on the scale twice) & go from here...
Day 16 11/6 191.8 lbs This is the right weight now. I double-checked.
Day 17 11/7 191.8 lbs
Day 18 11/8 192.4 went over on calories yesterday, plus NO workout (Sundays are my days OFF)...so here I am...
Day 19 11/9 191.8 lbs.
Day 20 11/10 191.8 lbs. I seem to have hit a plateau, but at least it's not rising!
Day 21 11/11 191.8 lbs. yep...definitely in a rut...😉
Day 22 11/12 190.2 lbs. ~ OK...NOW we're talkin'... 😊 ...
Day 23 11/13 I guess it's still the same because I am NOT weighing myself this morning. My daughter and I were talking about this yesterday and she told me that this daily weigh-in is starting to play games with my head...and I totally agree with her. I cannot be looking at constant "same-ness" and only seeing a slight change from day to day so from here on out, I will be weighing myself ONCE A WEEK, on FRIDAYS,...like I did years ago when I was on Calorie Count @ About.com .
And on another topic, it took me nearly 15 minutes of searching and scrolling thru these posts here (on this so-called "new" format to find my post from yesterday...it used to be easy; members' icons were larger, easier to see at a glance...now it takes me time that I really don't care to spend. Below these comments I am c/p what another member (Chalmation) has already said...but I agree 100%!! This did NOT, IMHO, need to be "udated"...it was fine before...but like every other weight-watchers' site, they feel the need to "change what doesn't need changing, to fix what doesn't need fixing..." and now, I will be coming here ONCE A WEEK. I don't have time for this....
I will post my current/new weight next Friday. ...that is, IF I can find my name here!!
"Yet another website making changes just for the sake of making changes, and not for the better. There's no reason to change what was working just fine. If something's broke, fix it, don't do a complete overhaul. And now we've lost functionality. As others have said, BBC is not supported, so no spoilers, tickers, colors, etc. You can bold and italicize if you double-click the word.
ETA: Just found the announcement for the new changes. They said that BBC code is not coming back because its not sustainable. Its been sustainable for years but now its not. Click on Discussions at the top and it should be the first post. The post is closed of course, so they don't have to deal with complaints, but the option to Disagree is there.[/quote]"
Day 29 11/19 190.2 lbs. ~ I was hoping for better than this but at least I didn't gain; I've been watching my calories all week, didn't miss a single work-out... 😢 ...I don't get it...5 -

100 Days of Accountability 10/22-1/29
I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.
Female, Age 61, 5’3”
Challenge Starting Weight: 207 (10/21)
Challenge Goal: <195History & Goals
Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
* 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195
* Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
* Onederland: 199
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Day 6: Wed, 10/27: 208.9 🎂 Too much celebrating this week. 61 Bday bring it on! Sounds like I’m going to have 2 grand babies … end of Dec 2021 and then mid June 2022. Walked 3.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr (this class is wearing me out I’m useless after returning home for hours on end!), 2282 cal, 249 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Our dog ate the steak and then Plan B: Pizza did me in on carbs & calories! GO ASTROS!
Day 7: Thurs, 10/28: 207.8 Walked 3.1 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Decided to take a little break and not track but choose wisely. That worked right up until the Dove dark chocolate raspberry sorbet bar at 10pm.

2nd Week Goal Weight: <205
2ndWeek Actual Weight: 207.9
Day 10: Sun: 10/31: 209.0 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 miles, fishing caught 21” Speckled Trout, 1653 cal, 124 net carbs, 3 drinks. Way too many chips (even counting them) with fried fresh fish tacos w/ avocado. Driving home today to spend the evening with our adult kids eating traditional chili and handing out full size (not fun size) M&Ms candy while we sit out on the driveway. Taking my mom with us for a long visit.
Day 11: Mon: 11/1: 209.6 Long drive, .5 mile walk, bad food choices, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Time to turn things around and get focused on getting back under 205.
Brought my mom back to visit for the baby shower at the end of the week as well as doctor’s visits she scheduled in Houston.
Day 12: Tues: 11/2: 207.9 Walked 3.2 miles, gardening, 1692 cal, 70 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Bought and planted flowers yesterday in front of my house! Snapdragons, Pansies, Kale, Alyssum, and a few extra for the large pot next to the door. Great exercise weeding digging planting ... not to mention lugging big bags of mulch.
Day 13: Wed: 11/3: 207.7 Walked .6 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 1848 cal, 171 net carbs, AF. Lots of shopping & mom’s doctors visits. But did cook chicken enchilada soup (added zucchini) in crock pot so we had a healthier dinner when we returned home!
https://www.skinnytaste.com/crock-pot-chicken-enchilada-soup/
My mother self diagnosis and medicates usually. She has had neuropathy for 4 years but would not see someone about it. Took my mom to a doctor about her neuropathy in her feet & lower legs. Her doc has not done A1c lab work but this one thinks she might be pre-diabetic so she will get more lab work to check. He is switching her from over the internet TrueWell (150 mg alpha-lipoid acid) to EBM’s pharmaceutical grade EB-N6 (600 mg alpha-lipoid acid). Said she is not a candidate for his program to reverse with surgery. She is 85 (5’4” 175 lbs) and eats primarily carbs with few vegetables & protein. He recommended she start keto and then switch to Mediterranean diet. Read Sugar Crush and Fat for Fuel to better understand what she is doing to her body with all the carbs. We checked these books out from the library. She needs to walk, bike or swim at least 20 min 3x per week so I took her out for a short walk … she is active but doesn’t exercise. I also have her doing daily stretches and exercises for her sciatic nerve issue. It is hard to incorporate these changes in an 85 year old … but reinforces my path to healthier lifestyle and I need to get back focused on my own journey to lowering the number on the scale!
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 207.5 Walked 3.8 miles, 1530 cal, 138 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Baked pumpkin cookies and pear cake for the baby shower on Saturday at my house. Also cooked a very large pot of chicken sausage gumbo to prep for all the company coming in Friday evening. Kitchen sort of day which was good activity given all the rain in the afternoon/evening.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 208.3 No exercise, did not journal food, 2 glasses wine at my sisters … relatives are in town for the shower already and she cooked dinner for us. I was dressed for strength training class when my DIL called crying ~8am. My son is out of town and she is pregnant due late Dec. She was at the school where she teaches. Spotting/bleeding. Drove the 50 miles across Houston picked her up then drove back into town to the med center to see her doctor. All is fine with mom & baby no sign of preterm early labor. Small infection that can cause early contractions so antibiotics and she is good. Lunch out to feed her and then took her home to rest until my son arrived back home from AZ. Then back to my home to care for my mom who I had promised a mani pedi.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 207.2 No exercise yet again. Did not journal but ate at home no restaurants! Long visit at the doctor’s office with mom, errand running for the baby shower, my son & his wife arrived from Austin, decorating the house … never seen so many balloons & star garland LOL, gumbo and late night talking with our adult kids over bottles of wine. 3 glasses wine.
3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A <205
3rd Week Actual Weight: 207.2
3rd Week Weight Loss: .9
It’s going to take me forever to get back < 205 and to this year’s goal of <200 if I don’t start paying more attention to what I put in my mouth and get back into my exercise routine.
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 208.3 No exercise, baby shower at my home took most of my time, no journaling food, AF.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 207.9 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Wonderful jazz music brunch at Brennan’s with our adult children (they threw in their credit cards and would not let us pay), 60th birthday celebration for DH since we had the kids all together. Walked through our daughter’s new home built in 1948 … definitely a fixer upper in an up and coming area of town. She told her siblings she was pregnant at brunch. So much celebration this weekend. Taking my mom to the airport today and pulling the plug on gluttony for the rest of the week!
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 207.4 Walk 3 miles, Bike 20 min, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 206.7 Walked 1.3 + 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, weeding garden, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Still not journalling my food but I am paying more attention Mon & Tues. TODAY is the day I pull it all back together water, tracking every bite and exercise. Took the leftover pumpkin cookies & pear cake from the baby shower to alumnae social event last night instead of a bottle of wine. All the sweet temptations are gone!
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 205.5 Walked 1.6 + 3.1 + 1 miles, 1524 cal, 114 net carbs, AF. Donated blood (targeting 4x per year). Started journaling my food for the day in the morning again and then updating it throughout the day. Definitely makes me think before putting something else in my tummy and I’m more accountable.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 207.0 Walked 1.8 + 1.4 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 2267 cal, 151 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. DH went to happy hour with clients. My sister stopped by to drop something off so we ended up going out as well. After I returned home I walked the dog once more before DH returned.
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 207.4. Walked 3.7 + 3.1 miles, 1642 cal, 118 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
4th Week Goal Weight: <205

Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 209.3 Walked 1 mile, 2431 cal, 242 net carbs, 1 wine, 1 blackberry liqueur w/ soda water. 11550 steps shopping at the Nutcracker Market with DD. DH’s birthday celebration with dear friends that included purple & gold layered cake.
Day 25: Mon, 11/15: 207.1 Walked 3.2 miles, 1562 cal, 69 net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 26: Tues, 11/16: 206.6 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1574 cal, 126 net carbs, AF. Enjoyed book club eating reasonably at the restaurant and didn’t join the others drinking wine. Recommend “The Lost Apothecary” by Sarah Penner.
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 207.3 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, 1824 cal, 119 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 209.2 Walked 3 + .6 + 1.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Results from Grimaldi’s pizza for lunch and then Los Tios Mexican dinner.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 209.6 Walked 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Definitely not controlling the intake nor measuring it. Sigh …
Walked 47.8 miles in November

5th Week Goal Weight: <205
5th Week Actual Weight:4 -
Thanks Miyoka : - )
I think that this is my 8th round.
If I don't have 500 calories in the Green on the tracker (on average) I don't lose weight.
Day 1: Fri, 10/22:- 134.0 - Using my EW from the last 100
Day 2: Sat, 10/23 - 136.6 - Had a healthy day, I don't understand the big gain.
1st Week Goal Weight: N/A
1st Week Actual Weight: 136.6
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 911
Day 3: Sun, 10/24: 135.9 - very late dinner after a super long workday
Day 4: Mon, 10/25: 135.4 - No split shift today just a regular day shift, so I will be home for dinner at a reasonable hour. I am going to have a burger on a Kaiser, so had better eat very light all day until then.
Day 5: Tues, 10/26: 135.1 - Going back to split shifts today, trying to have smaller dinners when they are late
Day 6: Wed, 10/27: 136.0 - Trying to stay positive. Absolutely no reason for this gain, not like there was at Thanksgiving.
Day 7: Thurs, 10/28: 135.8 - Well, I ate an entire small takeout pizza last night, planning to have half only. I can't remember the last time that I had pizza (except for my own low cal Pita pizza). I gave into my frustrations that no matter what I seem to do I have been gaining weight, so basically said *kitten* it, I am having pizza.
Day 8: Fri, 10/29: 136.6 - Pizza caught up with me as I knew that it would. Kind of worth it : - )
Day 9: Sat: 10/30:
2nd Week Goal Weight: I want to erase the gains from the last 100 and the one before - 0.8 and 1.8 = 2.6
2ndWeek Actual Weight: N/A
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 2229 - not enough to lose a pound
Day 10: Sun: 10/31: DNW
Day 11: Mon: 11/1: 137.1 - Too high. I will work hard on this. Really glad that I have an active job.
Day 12: Tues: 11/2: 136.4 - Long way to go to get back to that 130.6 and beyond, but going in the right direction.
Day 13: Wed: 11/3: 135.6 - 2 nights of steak and prawns, but only half each night.
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 135.3 - Really happy to see this coming down. Back to chicken breasts and veggies for dinners. Tonight I will be having dinner at a "normal" time, so hoping to see a nice drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 135.0 - Glad to see it coming down, but I am being too strict with myself which is not a recipe for the longterm.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 136.5 - not happy about the number, especially since I was at 135.0 yesterday. Day off today with lots of activity and dinner at a reasonable time.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 133
3rd Week Actual Weight: 136.5 - 0.6 down for the week, I'll take it even though i think that it is inflated.
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 4417 - more than enough to lose a pound
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 137.5 - Completely don't understand this gain. Food and Exercise has been on point.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 136.9 - Dinner will be at a "normal" time until the weekend when I go back to split shifts. Hoping that this makes a dent in this weight.
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 136.2 - Trying to keep an average of 500 per day in the "Green". I haven't had Ribs in 2 months, but my weight is still up so high, pants are tight.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 135.9 - Heading out of town for work, off tomorrow. I am planning an indulgent evening when I get home, a few cocktails, possibly some pizza.
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 137.0 - Okay with that because I had Ribs last night, Kansas City Style. I buy the rack in a box already cooked. I have 3 more in the frieezer. I have had Ribs that people make from scratch, but these are yummy and easy. Having said that, Kansas City Style was not my favourite that I have tried, I don't particularly like vinegtar, and it had a hint of that. I really like the Memphis Dry Rub style, and Lou's bbq. Wayyy into the red, but I had been gaining even without Ribs for a couple of months. Didn't exactly throw in the towel. Back to clean eating today, day off so will get lots of activity.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 137.2 - Lower end of my calories and good activity yesterday, my day off. This is the remnants of my Ribs day. 🍖
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 137.1 - A bit down from the beginning of the week, but still way over the start o the 100
4th Week Goal Weight:
4th Week Actual Weight: 137.1
Calories in the Green this week: 2414 - Not enough to lose a pound. I got in a lot of activity, but Ribs took me way over in calories.
Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 136.4 - Just took out double spacing line by line. Tedious. Hope that works.
Day 25: Mon, 11/15: 136.3 - Moving to dayshift only starting this week : - ) I don't know that the earlier dinners will happen just quite yet because I have quite a bit of work this week with my other job. Calories in Calories out - yeah, but it really seems that timing of meals has made a jump in my weight over the last months. Looking forward to eating at a "regular" time soon.
Day 26: Tues, 11/16: - 137.8 - Ate at a normal dinner time, got lots of exercise. The uptick on the scale was shocking to me this morning. I am doing all of the right things, trying to be patient. Heck, I didn't even put that much on when I had Ribs!
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 137.5 - Frustrated with my weight, and this new forum layout is so awful.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 136.5 - No idea why I dropped a pound overnight other than having a good sleep. No change in my eating or activity.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 137.4 - Right back up, 842 in the Green, all healthy foods. Grr. And double grr to MFP, these forums are now painful to read and to post into.
Day 30: Sat, 11/20:

Day 23…..11/13…..189.2…..(Trend weight 189.0) Travel Day
Day 24…..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. Heavy snow outside so nothing there due to slippery. One handyman coming today. Obviously I am disappointed that one meal would make such a negative difference.
Day 25…..11/15…..191.0…..(Trend weight 189.3) I ate the other half of my leftover chinese food so I didn’t expect a huge water retention drop, but I would have loved to see some type of better difference on the scale. Today I am going to aim for a very very low cal and lower carb day to “shake it up”. Let’s hope the cravings and extra hunger from over-indulging during the travel and leftovers don’t stand in my way. Trying to pre-plan for that too!
Day 26…..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 not become a habit. Not such a good idea for my diabetes or my waistline!
Day 27…..11/17…..189.8…..(Trend weight 189.4) Epic Fail. I made a big dinner for the entire crew last night that is doing my home renovations. It was healthy but a little too hardy since I ate too much! Back at it today.
Day 28…..11/18…..190.6…..(Trend weight 189.7) Very bad news from Primary Doctor yesterday in regards to my blood work. A1C 11.8 so she will be adding more medication for Type 2 diabetes in conjunction with what I am already taking. Thyroid has gotten worse and my medication will be increased. My sodium is super low and so a medication for that is being added. My LDL cholesterol is bad so she is adding Atorvastatin for help that. What a hot mess! These medications will help, but I know in my heart of hearts that diet and exercise is the healthiest answer to all of this. I’ve got to do better! With all these holidays coming up, it just couldn’t be more challenging! I’ve won the battle with cancer, but can I win the battle with myself?
Day 29…..11/19…..190.8…..(Trend weight 189.8) Travel yesterday was unexpected and I didn’t get home until 8:30 PM. Only slightly over 5000 steps, not enough water, lots of sitting in car and restaurant for late lunch/dinner. I’m surprised scale isn’t up more so I’m nervous that a bigger number will pop up in the coming days (right before Thanksgiving ugh!). Pushing water today. I’m finding a lot of support on these challenges from friends who want me to do better and BE better. Thanks to everyone for your caring. It makes a difference. For those of you who have followed my journey, you know when I’m hot, I’m hot. And when I’m not, I’m not. Time for me to roll up my sleeves because it’s about to get hot! It may not be until after the Thursday holiday, but it’s going to get very hot very soon!

@dawnbgethealthy
Where are you seeing spacing, in all posts or just yours? I'm looking at your posts on the website and my Android phone and there is no spacing. Everyone's posts look the same as they did before the change. As someone said in another thread, maybe it depends on the device we're using if the posts look wonky or not.
Also, like you, I've been 100% on plan for over a week and my weight was not going down. Today it finally did, so hang in there, you're next haha!

I've been fluctuating the same 2-pound range for over a week, all the while being 100%. Finally dropped today. So you're next after Dawn!

🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)

My mother self diagnosis and medicates usually. She has had neuropathy for 4 years but would not see someone about it. Took my mom to a doctor about her neuropathy in her feet & lower legs. Her doc has not done A1c lab work but this one thinks she might be pre-diabetic so she will get more lab work to check. He is switching her from over the internet TrueWell (150 mg alpha-lipoid acid) to EBM’s pharmaceutical grade EB-N6 (600 mg alpha-lipoid acid). Said she is not a candidate for his program to reverse with surgery. She is 85 (5’4” 175 lbs) and eats primarily carbs with few vegetables & protein. He recommended she start keto and then switch to Mediterranean diet. Read Sugar Crush and Fat for Fuel to better understand what she is doing to her body with all the carbs. We checked these books out from the library. She needs to walk, bike or swim at least 20 min 3x per week so I took her out for a short walk … she is active but doesn’t exercise. I also have her doing daily stretches and exercises for her sciatic nerve issue. It is hard to incorporate these changes in an 85 year old … but reinforces my path to healthier lifestyle and I need to get back focused on my own journey to lowering the number on the scale!
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 207.5 Walked 3.8 miles, 1530 cal, 138 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Baked pumpkin cookies and pear cake for the baby shower on Saturday at my house. Also cooked a very large pot of chicken sausage gumbo to prep for all the company coming in Friday evening. Kitchen sort of day which was good activity given all the rain in the afternoon/evening.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 208.3 No exercise, did not journal food, 2 glasses wine at my sisters … relatives are in town for the shower already and she cooked dinner for us. I was dressed for strength training class when my DIL called crying ~8am. My son is out of town and she is pregnant due late Dec. She was at the school where she teaches. Spotting/bleeding. Drove the 50 miles across Houston picked her up then drove back into town to the med center to see her doctor. All is fine with mom & baby no sign of preterm early labor. Small infection that can cause early contractions so antibiotics and she is good. Lunch out to feed her and then took her home to rest until my son arrived back home from AZ. Then back to my home to care for my mom who I had promised a mani pedi.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 207.2 No exercise yet again. Did not journal but ate at home no restaurants! Long visit at the doctor’s office with mom, errand running for the baby shower, my son & his wife arrived from Austin, decorating the house … never seen so many balloons & star garland LOL, gumbo and late night talking with our adult kids over bottles of wine. 3 glasses wine.
3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A <205
3rd Week Actual Weight: 207.2
3rd Week Weight Loss: .9
It’s going to take me forever to get back < 205 and to this year’s goal of <200 if I don’t start paying more attention to what I put in my mouth and get back into my exercise routine.
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 208.3 No exercise, baby shower at my home took most of my time, no journaling food, AF.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 207.9 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Wonderful jazz music brunch at Brennan’s with our adult children (they threw in their credit cards and would not let us pay), 60th birthday celebration for DH since we had the kids all together. Walked through our daughter’s new home built in 1948 … definitely a fixer upper in an up and coming area of town. She told her siblings she was pregnant at brunch. So much celebration this weekend. Taking my mom to the airport today and pulling the plug on gluttony for the rest of the week!
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 207.4 Walk 3 miles, Bike 20 min, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 206.7 Walked 1.3 + 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, weeding garden, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Still not journalling my food but I am paying more attention Mon & Tues. TODAY is the day I pull it all back together water, tracking every bite and exercise. Took the leftover pumpkin cookies & pear cake from the baby shower to alumnae social event last night instead of a bottle of wine. All the sweet temptations are gone!
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 205.5 Walked 1.6 + 3.1 + 1 miles, 1524 cal, 114 net carbs, AF. Donated blood (targeting 4x per year). Started journaling my food for the day in the morning again and then updating it throughout the day. Definitely makes me think before putting something else in my tummy and I’m more accountable.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 207.0 Walked 1.8 + 1.4 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 2267 cal, 151 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. DH went to happy hour with clients. My sister stopped by to drop something off so we ended up going out as well. After I returned home I walked the dog once more before DH returned.
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 207.4. Walked 3.7 + 3.1 miles, 1642 cal, 118 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
4th Week Goal Weight: <205
4th Week Actual Weight: 207.4

Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 209.3 Walked 1 mile, 2431 cal, 242 net carbs, 1 wine, 1 blackberry liqueur w/ soda water. 11550 steps shopping at the Nutcracker Market with DD. DH’s birthday celebration with dear friends that included purple & gold layered cake.

Day 26: Tues, 11/16: 206.6 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1574 cal, 126 net carbs, AF. Enjoyed book club eating reasonably at the restaurant and didn’t join the others drinking wine. Recommend “The Lost Apothecary” by Sarah Penner.
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 207.3 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, 1824 cal, 119 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 209.2 Walked 3 + .6 + 1.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Results from Grimaldi’s pizza for lunch and then Los Tios Mexican dinner.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 209.6 Walked 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Definitely not controlling the intake nor measuring it. Sigh …
Day 30: Sat, 11/20: 209.1 Walked 3.3 + 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 38th Anniversary dinner with DH at Ouisie’s Table, 2 glasses wine.
Walked 54.1 miles in November
5th Week Goal Weight: <205
5th Week Actual Weight: 209.1
5th Week Weight Loss: 1.7
Weight is rising before the holidays even get here! I need a mental adjustment because I’ve gotten into the “I don’t give a flying fig” attitude. But in reality I do! I’m going to be on point Sat-Wed this week to prove to myself that this can be done so that the scale doesn’t tip over into the tens (210) on Thanksgiving.4 -

Day 23…..11/13…..189.2…..(Trend weight 189.0) Travel Day
Day 24…..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. Heavy snow outside so nothing there due to slippery. One handyman coming today. Obviously I am disappointed that one meal would make such a negative difference.
Day 25…..11/15…..191.0…..(Trend weight 189.3) I ate the other half of my leftover chinese food so I didn’t expect a huge water retention drop, but I would have loved to see some type of better difference on the scale. Today I am going to aim for a very very low cal and lower carb day to “shake it up”. Let’s hope the cravings and extra hunger from over-indulging during the travel and leftovers don’t stand in my way. Trying to pre-plan for that too!
Day 26…..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 not become a habit. Not such a good idea for my diabetes or my waistline!
Day 27…..11/17…..189.8…..(Trend weight 189.4) Epic Fail. I made a big dinner for the entire crew last night that is doing my home renovations. It was healthy but a little too hardy since I ate too much! Back at it today.
Day 28…..11/18…..190.6…..(Trend weight 189.7) Very bad news from Primary Doctor yesterday in regards to my blood work. A1C 11.8 so she will be adding more medication for Type 2 diabetes in conjunction with what I am already taking. Thyroid has gotten worse and my medication will be increased. My sodium is super low and so a medication for that is being added. My LDL cholesterol is bad so she is adding Atorvastatin for help that. What a hot mess! These medications will help, but I know in my heart of hearts that diet and exercise is the healthiest answer to all of this. I’ve got to do better! With all these holidays coming up, it just couldn’t be more challenging! I’ve won the battle with cancer, but can I win the battle with myself?
Day 29…..11/19…..190.8…..(Trend weight 189.8) Travel yesterday was unexpected and I didn’t get home until 8:30 PM. Only slightly over 5000 steps, not enough water, lots of sitting in car and restaurant for late lunch/dinner. I’m surprised scale isn’t up more so I’m nervous that a bigger number will pop up in the coming days (right before Thanksgiving ugh!). Pushing water today. I’m finding a lot of support on these challenges from friends who want me to do better and BE better. Thanks to everyone for your caring. It makes a difference. For those of you who have followed my journey, you know when I’m hot, I’m hot. And when I’m not, I’m not. Time for me to roll up my sleeves because it’s about to get hot! It may not be until after the Thursday holiday, but it’s going to get very hot very soon!
Day 30…..11/20…..190.2…..(Trend weight 189.8) A nice little drop today. I rolled up my sleeves and put in some extra work on the dietary front. It could have been better honestly but I’ll work even harder on it today. No more finishing my grandson’s (wasted) food on his plate when he’s finished with things many many times a day. I had forgotten what it was like to have young children in the house and be the food vacuum. #ItChangesNowThatI’veNoticedIt.

I think that this is my 8th round.
If I don't have 500 calories in the Green on the tracker (on average) I don't lose weight.
Day 1: Fri, 10/22:- 134.0 - Using my EW from the last 100
Day 2: Sat, 10/23 - 136.6 - Had a healthy day, I don't understand the big gain.
1st Week Goal Weight: N/A
1st Week Actual Weight: 136.6
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 911
Day 3: Sun, 10/24: 135.9 - very late dinner after a super long workday
Day 4: Mon, 10/25: 135.4 - No split shift today just a regular day shift, so I will be home for dinner at a reasonable hour. I am going to have a burger on a Kaiser, so had better eat very light all day until then.
Day 5: Tues, 10/26: 135.1 - Going back to split shifts today, trying to have smaller dinners when they are late
Day 6: Wed, 10/27: 136.0 - Trying to stay positive. Absolutely no reason for this gain, not like there was at Thanksgiving.
Day 7: Thurs, 10/28: 135.8 - Well, I ate an entire small takeout pizza last night, planning to have half only. I can't remember the last time that I had pizza (except for my own low cal Pita pizza). I gave into my frustrations that no matter what I seem to do I have been gaining weight, so basically said *kitten* it, I am having pizza.
Day 8: Fri, 10/29: 136.6 - Pizza caught up with me as I knew that it would. Kind of worth it : - )
Day 9: Sat: 10/30:
2nd Week Goal Weight: I want to erase the gains from the last 100 and the one before - 0.8 and 1.8 = 2.6
2ndWeek Actual Weight: N/A
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 2229 - not enough to lose a pound
Day 10: Sun: 10/31: DNW
Day 11: Mon: 11/1: 137.1 - Too high. I will work hard on this. Really glad that I have an active job.
Day 12: Tues: 11/2: 136.4 - Long way to go to get back to that 130.6 and beyond, but going in the right direction.
Day 13: Wed: 11/3: 135.6 - 2 nights of steak and prawns, but only half each night.
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 135.3 - Really happy to see this coming down. Back to chicken breasts and veggies for dinners. Tonight I will be having dinner at a "normal" time, so hoping to see a nice drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 135.0 - Glad to see it coming down, but I am being too strict with myself which is not a recipe for the longterm.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 136.5 - not happy about the number, especially since I was at 135.0 yesterday. Day off today with lots of activity and dinner at a reasonable time.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 133
3rd Week Actual Weight: 136.5 - 0.6 down for the week, I'll take it even though i think that it is inflated.
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 4417 - more than enough to lose a pound
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 137.5 - Completely don't understand this gain. Food and Exercise has been on point.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 136.9 - Dinner will be at a "normal" time until the weekend when I go back to split shifts. Hoping that this makes a dent in this weight.
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 136.2 - Trying to keep an average of 500 per day in the "Green". I haven't had Ribs in 2 months, but my weight is still up so high, pants are tight.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 135.9 - Heading out of town for work, off tomorrow. I am planning an indulgent evening when I get home, a few cocktails, possibly some pizza.
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 137.0 - Okay with that because I had Ribs last night, Kansas City Style. I buy the rack in a box already cooked. I have 3 more in the frieezer. I have had Ribs that people make from scratch, but these are yummy and easy. Having said that, Kansas City Style was not my favourite that I have tried, I don't particularly like vinegtar, and it had a hint of that. I really like the Memphis Dry Rub style, and Lou's bbq. Wayyy into the red, but I had been gaining even without Ribs for a couple of months. Didn't exactly throw in the towel. Back to clean eating today, day off so will get lots of activity.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 137.2 - Lower end of my calories and good activity yesterday, my day off. This is the remnants of my Ribs day. 🍖
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 137.1 - A bit down from the beginning of the week, but still way over the start o the 100
4th Week Goal Weight:
4th Week Actual Weight: 137.1
Calories in the Green this week: 2414 - Not enough to lose a pound. I got in a lot of activity, but Ribs took me way over in calories.
Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 136.4 - Just took out double spacing line by line. Tedious. Hope that works.
Day 25: Mon, 11/15: 136.3 - Moving to dayshift only starting this week : - ) I don't know that the earlier dinners will happen just quite yet because I have quite a bit of work this week with my other job. Calories in Calories out - yeah, but it really seems that timing of meals has made a jump in my weight over the last months. Looking forward to eating at a "regular" time soon.
Day 26: Tues, 11/16: - 137.8 - Ate at a normal dinner time, got lots of exercise. The uptick on the scale was shocking to me this morning. I am doing all of the right things, trying to be patient. Heck, I didn't even put that much on when I had Ribs!
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 137.5 - Frustrated with my weight, and this new forum layout is so awful.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 136.5 - No idea why I dropped a pound overnight other than having a good sleep. No change in my eating or activity.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 137.4 - Right back up, 842 in the Green, all healthy foods. Grr. And double grr to MFP, these forums are now painful to read and to post into.
Day 30: Sat, 11/20: DNW - up very early and consuming liquids. Might just eat whatever I want this weekend now that I am finally getting 2 days off after 8 straight from both jobs. I will log everything of course.

Things trending well still. Feeling really good and starting to be more deliberate about adding exercise.
I've also started taking some vitamins and being stricter about meeting protein goals because my weight loss still isn't slowing down. (Calculators estimate me losing about 1.5lb a week but it's been almost double that). I have a Dr appointment next month and will ask her what she thinks about the speed, and meanwhile if I start feeling unwell I'll take a maintenance day or two.

My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Day 11: Mon: 11/1: 209.6 Long drive, .5 mile walk, bad food choices, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Time to turn things around and get focused on getting back under 205.
Brought my mom back to visit for the baby shower at the end of the week as well as doctor’s visits she scheduled in Houston.
Day 12: Tues: 11/2: 207.9 Walked 3.2 miles, gardening, 1692 cal, 70 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Bought and planted flowers yesterday in front of my house! Snapdragons, Pansies, Kale, Alyssum, and a few extra for the large pot next to the door. Great exercise weeding digging planting ... not to mention lugging big bags of mulch.
Day 13: Wed: 11/3: 207.7 Walked .6 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 1848 cal, 171 net carbs, AF. Lots of shopping & mom’s doctors visits. But did cook chicken enchilada soup (added zucchini) in crock pot so we had a healthier dinner when we returned home!

My mother self diagnosis and medicates usually. She has had neuropathy for 4 years but would not see someone about it. Took my mom to a doctor about her neuropathy in her feet & lower legs. Her doc has not done A1c lab work but this one thinks she might be pre-diabetic so she will get more lab work to check. He is switching her from over the internet TrueWell (150 mg alpha-lipoid acid) to EBM’s pharmaceutical grade EB-N6 (600 mg alpha-lipoid acid). Said she is not a candidate for his program to reverse with surgery. She is 85 (5’4” 175 lbs) and eats primarily carbs with few vegetables & protein. He recommended she start keto and then switch to Mediterranean diet. Read Sugar Crush and Fat for Fuel to better understand what she is doing to her body with all the carbs. We checked these books out from the library. She needs to walk, bike or swim at least 20 min 3x per week so I took her out for a short walk … she is active but doesn’t exercise. I also have her doing daily stretches and exercises for her sciatic nerve issue. It is hard to incorporate these changes in an 85 year old … but reinforces my path to healthier lifestyle and I need to get back focused on my own journey to lowering the number on the scale!
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 207.5 Walked 3.8 miles, 1530 cal, 138 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Baked pumpkin cookies and pear cake for the baby shower on Saturday at my house. Also cooked a very large pot of chicken sausage gumbo to prep for all the company coming in Friday evening. Kitchen sort of day which was good activity given all the rain in the afternoon/evening.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 208.3 No exercise, did not journal food, 2 glasses wine at my sisters … relatives are in town for the shower already and she cooked dinner for us. I was dressed for strength training class when my DIL called crying ~8am. My son is out of town and she is pregnant due late Dec. She was at the school where she teaches. Spotting/bleeding. Drove the 50 miles across Houston picked her up then drove back into town to the med center to see her doctor. All is fine with mom & baby no sign of preterm early labor. Small infection that can cause early contractions so antibiotics and she is good. Lunch out to feed her and then took her home to rest until my son arrived back home from AZ. Then back to my home to care for my mom who I had promised a mani pedi.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 207.2 No exercise yet again. Did not journal but ate at home no restaurants! Long visit at the doctor’s office with mom, errand running for the baby shower, my son & his wife arrived from Austin, decorating the house … never seen so many balloons & star garland LOL, gumbo and late night talking with our adult kids over bottles of wine. 3 glasses wine.
3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A <205
3rd Week Actual Weight: 207.2
3rd Week Weight Loss: .9
It’s going to take me forever to get back < 205 and to this year’s goal of <200 if I don’t start paying more attention to what I put in my mouth and get back into my exercise routine.
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 208.3 No exercise, baby shower at my home took most of my time, no journaling food, AF.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 207.9 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Wonderful jazz music brunch at Brennan’s with our adult children (they threw in their credit cards and would not let us pay), 60th birthday celebration for DH since we had the kids all together. Walked through our daughter’s new home built in 1948 … definitely a fixer upper in an up and coming area of town. She told her siblings she was pregnant at brunch. So much celebration this weekend. Taking my mom to the airport today and pulling the plug on gluttony for the rest of the week!
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 207.4 Walk 3 miles, Bike 20 min, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 206.7 Walked 1.3 + 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, weeding garden, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Still not journalling my food but I am paying more attention Mon & Tues. TODAY is the day I pull it all back together water, tracking every bite and exercise. Took the leftover pumpkin cookies & pear cake from the baby shower to alumnae social event last night instead of a bottle of wine. All the sweet temptations are gone!
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 205.5 Walked 1.6 + 3.1 + 1 miles, 1524 cal, 114 net carbs, AF. Donated blood (targeting 4x per year). Started journaling my food for the day in the morning again and then updating it throughout the day. Definitely makes me think before putting something else in my tummy and I’m more accountable.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 207.0 Walked 1.8 + 1.4 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 2267 cal, 151 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. DH went to happy hour with clients. My sister stopped by to drop something off so we ended up going out as well. After I returned home I walked the dog once more before DH returned.
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 207.4. Walked 3.7 + 3.1 miles, 1642 cal, 118 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.

Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 209.3 Walked 1 mile, 2431 cal, 242 net carbs, 1 wine, 1 blackberry liqueur w/ soda water. 11550 steps shopping at the Nutcracker Market with DD. DH’s birthday celebration with dear friends that included purple & gold layered cake.
Day 25: Mon, 11/15: 207.1 Walked 3.2 miles, 1562 cal, 69 net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 26: Tues, 11/16: 206.6 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1574 cal, 126 net carbs, AF. Enjoyed book club eating reasonably at the restaurant and didn’t join the others drinking wine. Recommend “The Lost Apothecary” by Sarah Penner.
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 207.3 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, 1824 cal, 119 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 209.2 Walked 3 + .6 + 1.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Results from Grimaldi’s pizza for lunch and then Los Tios Mexican dinner.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 209.6 Walked 1.3 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Definitely not controlling the intake nor measuring it. Sigh …
Walked 47.8 miles in November
Day 30: Sat, 11/20: 209.1 Walked 3.3 + 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 38th Anniversary dinner with DH at Ouisie’s Table, 2 glasses wine.
5th Week Actual Weight: 209.1
5th Week Weight Loss: 1.7
Weight is rising before the holidays even get here! I need a mental adjustment because I’ve gotten into the “I don’t give a flying fig” attitude. But in reality I do! I’m going to be on point Sat-Wed this week to prove to myself that this can be done so that the scale doesn’t tip over into the tens (210) on Thanksgiving.
Day 31: Sun, 11/21: 209.1 .6 + 3 miles, 1860 cal, 58 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Meals were pretty good but I got into the snacks in the afternoon. Steak night and my sister joined us which leads to more wine.4 -

Thank you @deepwoodslady ! x3

I think that this is my 8th round.
If I don't have 500 calories in the Green on the tracker (on average) I don't lose weight.
Day 1: Fri, 10/22:- 134.0 - Using my EW from the last 100
Day 2: Sat, 10/23 - 136.6 - Had a healthy day, I don't understand the big gain.
1st Week Goal Weight: N/A
1st Week Actual Weight: 136.6
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 911
Day 3: Sun, 10/24: 135.9 - very late dinner after a super long workday
Day 4: Mon, 10/25: 135.4 - No split shift today just a regular day shift, so I will be home for dinner at a reasonable hour. I am going to have a burger on a Kaiser, so had better eat very light all day until then.
Day 5: Tues, 10/26: 135.1 - Going back to split shifts today, trying to have smaller dinners when they are late
Day 6: Wed, 10/27: 136.0 - Trying to stay positive. Absolutely no reason for this gain, not like there was at Thanksgiving.
Day 7: Thurs, 10/28: 135.8 - Well, I ate an entire small takeout pizza last night, planning to have half only. I can't remember the last time that I had pizza (except for my own low cal Pita pizza). I gave into my frustrations that no matter what I seem to do I have been gaining weight, so basically said *kitten* it, I am having pizza.
Day 8: Fri, 10/29: 136.6 - Pizza caught up with me as I knew that it would. Kind of worth it : - )
Day 9: Sat: 10/30:
2nd Week Goal Weight: I want to erase the gains from the last 100 and the one before - 0.8 and 1.8 = 2.6
2ndWeek Actual Weight: N/A
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 2229 - not enough to lose a pound
Day 10: Sun: 10/31: DNW
Day 11: Mon: 11/1: 137.1 - Too high. I will work hard on this. Really glad that I have an active job.
Day 12: Tues: 11/2: 136.4 - Long way to go to get back to that 130.6 and beyond, but going in the right direction.
Day 13: Wed: 11/3: 135.6 - 2 nights of steak and prawns, but only half each night.
Day 14: Thurs: 11/4: 135.3 - Really happy to see this coming down. Back to chicken breasts and veggies for dinners. Tonight I will be having dinner at a "normal" time, so hoping to see a nice drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 15: Fri: 11/5: 135.0 - Glad to see it coming down, but I am being too strict with myself which is not a recipe for the longterm.
Day 16: Sat: 11/6: 136.5 - not happy about the number, especially since I was at 135.0 yesterday. Day off today with lots of activity and dinner at a reasonable time.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 133
3rd Week Actual Weight: 136.5 - 0.6 down for the week, I'll take it even though i think that it is inflated.
Excess calories burned (in the Green): 4417 - more than enough to lose a pound
Day 17: Sun: 11/7: 137.5 - Completely don't understand this gain. Food and Exercise has been on point.
Day 18: Mon: 11/8: 136.9 - Dinner will be at a "normal" time until the weekend when I go back to split shifts. Hoping that this makes a dent in this weight.
Day 19: Tues: 11/9: 136.2 - Trying to keep an average of 500 per day in the "Green". I haven't had Ribs in 2 months, but my weight is still up so high, pants are tight.
Day 20: Wed: 11/10: 135.9 - Heading out of town for work, off tomorrow. I am planning an indulgent evening when I get home, a few cocktails, possibly some pizza.
Day 21: Thurs: 11/11: 137.0 - Okay with that because I had Ribs last night, Kansas City Style. I buy the rack in a box already cooked. I have 3 more in the frieezer. I have had Ribs that people make from scratch, but these are yummy and easy. Having said that, Kansas City Style was not my favourite that I have tried, I don't particularly like vinegtar, and it had a hint of that. I really like the Memphis Dry Rub style, and Lou's bbq. Wayyy into the red, but I had been gaining even without Ribs for a couple of months. Didn't exactly throw in the towel. Back to clean eating today, day off so will get lots of activity.
Day 22: Fri: 11/12: 137.2 - Lower end of my calories and good activity yesterday, my day off. This is the remnants of my Ribs day. 🍖
Day 23: Sat: 11/13: 137.1 - A bit down from the beginning of the week, but still way over the start o the 100
4th Week Goal Weight:
4th Week Actual Weight: 137.1
Calories in the Green this week: 2414 - Not enough to lose a pound. I got in a lot of activity, but Ribs took me way over in calories.
Day 24: Sun, 11/14: 136.4 - Just took out double spacing line by line. Tedious. Hope that works.
Day 25: Mon, 11/15: 136.3 - Moving to dayshift only starting this week : - ) I don't know that the earlier dinners will happen just quite yet because I have quite a bit of work this week with my other job. Calories in Calories out - yeah, but it really seems that timing of meals has made a jump in my weight over the last months. Looking forward to eating at a "regular" time soon.
Day 26: Tues, 11/16: - 137.8 - Ate at a normal dinner time, got lots of exercise. The uptick on the scale was shocking to me this morning. I am doing all of the right things, trying to be patient. Heck, I didn't even put that much on when I had Ribs!
Day 27: Wed, 11/17: 137.5 - Frustrated with my weight, and this new forum layout is so awful.
Day 28: Thurs, 11/18: 136.5 - No idea why I dropped a pound overnight other than having a good sleep. No change in my eating or activity.
Day 29: Fri, 11/19: 137.4 - Right back up, 842 in the Green, all healthy foods. Grr. And double grr to MFP, these forums are now painful to read and to post into.
Day 30: Sat, 11/20: DNW - up very early and consuming liquids. Might just eat whatever I want this weekend now that I am finally getting 2 days off after 8 straight from both jobs. I will log everything of course.
5th Week Goal Weight: 133.4 - Lofty, I know
5th Week Actual Weight: N/A
Excess Calories burned (in the Green) this week: Again didn't reach my 500 per day average, 3052 - Not enough to lose a pound
Day 31: Sun, 11/21: 139.2 - 5 pounds more than this date a year ago. Wrong direction. It was nice to have an easy day yesterday though, I ate what I felt like for a change, didn't go over calories or anything, but being "good" had not been working for me at all. Not throwing in the towel, just gave myself a break
