RGW: 147.7 pounds (- 2.0 pounds)
Day/Weight/Comment
12/28: 149.7 - I’ve been holding at this weight for the last 4 days, which considering the snacking and sweets that I’ve had isn’t too bad. This round I’m going to be focused on upping my protein so I can at least hit my 20% macro goal.
12/29: 149.7 - Worked out, ate within calories
12/30: 149.7 - Will need to change something to get things moving again
12/31: 149.7 - I have not been good about my eating lately. However, excited to end this year down and wearing my smaller clothes from a decade before.
1/01: 149.7 - Happy New Year! Didn’t get a workout in, but managed to eat sensibly yesterday.

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.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable but I’ve been doing it for over 4 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

12/28 118.0 AF Nice visit yesterday with friend. Ate at Romero’s in Pahrump. So sad that Red Sky BBQ is permanently closed. They had the most beautiful side salad! Sort of surprised by the drop as I ate some house made chips and salsa and whatever refried beans were stuck to the cheese - probably not more than a tablespoon, really. LOL
12/29 117.5 AF 1/2 of Great Greek salad with steak. Going to the restaurant supply with daughter and friends this morning. Ate 1/2 an apple with Smucker’s Natural PB last night.
12/30 117.0 AF
12/31 118.0 AF Ladies movie and game night tonight. 3 of the 4 men in our small neighborhood group have other plans so my DH is going to stay home so what started as Game Night became chick flick time.
1/1/22 119.5 Totally fine with this. Played cards and had champagne and multiple foods at neighbors to kick 2021 to the curb.

1: 207.0 Had a few drinks and some bar food, but still started fasting at my normal time. Was home and in bed earlier than I usually am. Didn't sleep well and ended up reading for an hour or two in the middle of the night. Starting a 3-day "juice" fast with an MFP friend today. I don't juice, so I'm doing protein shakes instead with frozen berries, MCT oil and a super greens supplement. Will probably have 2 a day, but I'll have to feel it out and be flexible about it. Still intend to stick to IF schedule with minimum 16-hour fast.
🎉Happy New Year! 🎉

Have a fancy dinner out planned for NYE so aiming for 196 for this round. Should be doable as long as the other 9 days are sound.
Hit the gym hard last night and sore this morning. Would have thought it would be up, but I'll take it!

More sore this morning. Couldn't fall asleep last night until after 2am so I'm dragging today.

Not sweating a slight gain. Pretty sore from yesterday's workout.
12/31: 197 lbs (+0.2)
Didn't get enough exercise yesterday or sleep last night. Going to hit the gym this morning.
01/01: 195.8 lbs (-1.2)
Happy New Year! What a great group! You all inspire me with your persistence and good choices!
195.8 by New Years Day, I'll take this as a win! Went out to dinner last night and behaved - grilled salmon with lemon crema and asparagus. Lighter and SO good! I'm in Denver too and the roads are terrible. I'm hoping the plows get out before I hit up the gym. That's not something I would have said ANY New Years day before. Who the heck have I become?!

12/29 207.8 very surprised it’s not higher with all the junk I’ve been eating.
12/30 208.2 Sigh.
12/31 207.4 Better. Still eating the Christmas leftover goodies but having salads for dinner. Thinking about New Year’s goals and realized I will hit 60 in December, 348 days to be exact. I’ve spent most of my adult life being overweight. I would like to spend the rest being in a somewhat “normal” weight range. How will I do that? Slow and steady wins the race right? Fewer calories each day and more movement each day.
1/1 208.2 Not sure what happened yesterday. This morning I started doing a low impact workout,10 minutes but it’s a start. I want to do it for 7 days in a row. I did drink a lot more water yesterday than normal. So exercise and water are my two things to focus on this round. Food was better yesterday too.

1/01 - DNW - I slept very wrong, waking up with low back and neck pain. I'm used to the low back pain since surgery, but this was far worse and radiated down my legs. I skipped the scale and immediately warmed up my corn sack to help sooth the pain and stiffness away. I just felt pain free enough to complete the workout that was due yesterday. Instead, we viewed 2 houses yesterday and put an offer in on one. I'm not holding out a ton of hope for that, but the other is mid-construction and in an HOA, leaving less competition for us as they cannot be used as B&Bs. Also less likely to get immediate offers as there are none yet and it's been on the market for about 15 days. Yesterday was okay, not exactly great. Water was 5-10oz short, so not all bad. Air fryer wings were phenomenal and I had an entire bag of steamable veggies with them. Chili is on for tonight with leftovers for frito pie and chili cheese burgers this week. I have one more dinner to come up with (BF prefers crockpot since his work schedule is now far more demanding) for this week. I found a recipe for air fryer stuffed peppers I want to make for my lunches. Will grocery shop for all those tomorrow as well as meal prep. Today has started off not great by way of food, but I'm determined to remedy that. Slightly behind on water, but not near as far behind as yesterday (plus the fact that Fam was out of water and I had to use tap. It tastes horrid and I struggled to drink it, but I got most of that last 30oz cup down). HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Previous Day's Comments12/28 - I made a booboo. I remembered to turn my alarm off for yesterday, but forgot to change my alarm to 6am instead of 330am! I woke up, weighed myself, chugged water, and then realized it's 330! I'm working from home this week and didn't have to be awake until 6 so back to bed I went. Didn't reweigh when I got up since I had chugged that water and went with the slightly skewed super early weight. Sodium and a very late dinner likely contributing. Also no proper TMI yesterday which is also not helping, I'd assume. Completed workout yesterday and today NF has me taking a 10 minute YETI walk (Year End Thankfulness Index - its a week long 2021 wrap-up journey to reflect on the successes of the year to set us up for a solid start of 2022 health wise). Sounds like BF is just waking up which means the pup will be up and moving so I can take her with. Tonight I get to use my air fryer to try stuffed mushrooms! I've never had them and BF has never had air fryer made ones so we shall see how it goes. I know this week's menu includes his homemade chili, chili cheese burgers, frito pie, and my attempt at making air fryer wings. Not sure if we are just eating the stuffed mushrooms for dinner of if we'll have something additional as well. Already working on water (hit 90oz yesterday yay!) and will continue that trend. Edit: Due to late dinner at friend's bday gathering, I'm not sure I will hit 16 hours (will be 1pm) so I'm going to fast as long as I can handle. Hopefully I can make it to at least 15 hours for lunch at noon.
12/29 - Alright, back down a bit into a "comfort zone" showing I didn't gain fat (or at least not a ton). Goals good yesterday, got my walk in. Today is workout day so I'll sneak that in somewhere. Stuffed mushrooms were good (as an appetizer)! Air fryer is amazing already. Took the rest to Fam and they loved them! Also made my best batch of chicken fajitas for dinner (even BF, who doesn't particularly like fajitas enjoyed them). Not sure dinner tonight. Think my attempt at air fryer wings is for NYE and chili is New Year's Day since it's crockpot and BF has to be up super early for work. Still have a chili cheese burgers and frito pie to choose from tonight. Will have to sneak in veggies at lunch. Forgot a couple items at store, so lunch break is yet another store run. Ugh. 3 days in a row! This holiday thing really has me messed up. At least I can grab some easy lunch ideas while I'm there.
12/30 - Not bad for a spaghetti dinner (hello carbs!). I also made (using my new Christmas toys) homemade baguettes which BF requested so he could make garlic bread. DEFINITELY better than store bought! Super proud of myself for that. Water was good. Workout knocked out. Today is rest day but, depending on how work is, I'll go for a walk over lunch with the pup (since I shouldn't need another store run, whew). We've decided to wait on Frito pie and chili cheese burgers until after the new year so we can use BF's leftover homemade chili rather than canned chili for them. I'm thinking of making chicken and rice tonight, just have to see if I have all the ingredients first. Have steamable bags of veggies as a side to go with it. All other habits good.
12/31 - Fam made dinner last night and it was really our last chance to hang out until mid-January (they both work the same lockdown schedule BF does) so we went there instead. Smothered venison patties with homemade mashed potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts. Water was good. Not quite sure why I'm feeling bloated and weight is up, but hopefully it drops back down. Tonight I attempt my air fryer wings. Tomorrow is chili. If we have nothing going on, Sunday is meal prep for the week of lunches and I'll make my chicken and rice for dinner then. Today is workout day. No plans for NYE except to watch my Michigan Wolverines. Go Blue!!! I believe, starting in the new year, working from home will no longer be an option. This will make things a little more challenging in the workout/sleep department, but hopefully easier in the eating department (easier to stick to fasting and, so long as I meal prep right, eating healthy balanced lunches). Will have to budget well (gas prices and more frequent car maintenace with all those miles!) and plan meals better.

Hi! 60F, Round goal: 139.9 lbs, end-of-year goal: 140 lbs, UGW: 135 lbs by end of Feb
SW: 143.9 (12/27, end of last Round, full impact of Christmas foods!)
Day/Weight/Comment
12/28 142.8 Still working to drop the Christmas weight, will take a bit of time.
12/29 141.5 I have not yet gotten back to weighing everything, but am logging. Yesterday was a family birthday meal out at a restaurant and I did well in my food selection. Today is another restaurant meal. My husband is choosing the restaurant and hasn't made a decision yet, so I won't be able to review the calorie counts until I am there. Some restaurants don't have calorie counts on their menu, but I can guess fairly well what would be a lower calorie choice. Forgot again this time to state a Round goal; I added it up above.
12/30. 140.8
12/31. 142.6. Well, I don't think that I posted my weight for yesterday; I don't see a post. It has been very hectic for the past couple weeks (as for many!). I gave up on logging partway today (eating was typical, it's just that there have been so many dishes with unknown calorie counts!). I'm hoping I get back in the groove with all this; there is great need to do so, lol! I'm not happy with the uptick, but I fully believe it was warranted (higher calorie counts, probably higher carbs than typical, and higher salt). I am very impressed with so many of you who have maintained or lost weight during this holiday season!
1/1. 141.6. Although I am still high from the Christmas uptick, I have continued my workouts throughout all of this. I enjoy working out (so very glad for this!) and am seeing some results.

12/30: 210lb. Stuck to calorie goal. Attended CrossFit. It’s really demoralising restarting losing weight for what seems like the millionth time! Really hoping restrictions in England don’t close gyms in January.
12/31: 210.6lb. Had a good day food wise, even making Cauli rice to go with my home made curry. Was lovely. Stayed in for NYE, had one alcoholic drink and then was on 0% for rest of evening. Gruelling crossfit workout too!
1/1: 210.2lb. Had dad come round today, cooked an amazing meal of beef stew with horseradish, veg and roast potatoes. CrossFit not open today so had a complete rest day.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/28 / 191.2 / My trend weight is definitely up this week but I'm back on my deficit so it'll just be a matter of time before the drops start happening again. I am traveling at the end of this round so my routine will be a bit skewed but my Dad was recently diagnosed as diabetic so eating well at his house won't be an issue. Day off from work today so we'll see what fun we get up to.. my 45 minute bike ride is already done!
12/29 / 191 / Working today, still bitterly cold so I'll be hopping on the Peloton for my exercise later today. We have a nice chicken dinner planned for tonight. Got my COVID booster this morning.
12/30 / 190.6 / Last day on a planned normal deficit for the next week so I'll be making it count. Tomorrow my husband has a special dinner planned and then Jan 1-5 we are travelling so I'll be eating at maintenance -10%. Still hoping to enter 2022 in the 180's!
12/31 / 188.6 / Proud of what I've accomplished this year... 104.4 pounds, from morbidly obese to overweight, looking forward to tackling 2022 in the same fashion. Happy New Years everyone!
1/1 / 190.6 / Happy New Year! Started with a 45 minute PR on the Peloton and now my husband and I are doing the 11 hour drive to my dad's dad's for a late holiday visit.

Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going!
May 10, 2021: 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever.
Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk/Free-Weights most days. IF, no sugar. Focus on getting enough vegetables. If I hit each of these, the weight loss will follow!
Next goal: - 140's by my birthday, Feb 10.

End of Last Round: 162.3
12/28 - DNW
12/29 - 162.2 - Too much salt and too many carbs. Hopefully this will drop back down to the 150's again in a few days, or at least by the end of this round.
12/30 - 161.8 - Enjoyed Christmas but I'm glad my excuse for eating things that are not good for me is done. Rowed 30 mins.
12/31 - 162.5 - Yike, wrong way!
01/01 - 161.3 - better!

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!

12/28- 193.6 Finished the day with 91 net carbs- it was pizza day. Happy with the loss this morning considering. Determined to hit the 10,000 step goal today. Let’s rock!
12/29- 193.8 I’ll admit, I’m slightly disappointed this morning. 40 net carbs yesterday, but I also had a terrible case of the munchies, so a little nibble here and there too. Thanks PMS! I’ll do better today for sure. Got my Pelo ride in yesterday, but fell short on steps. I’ll do better with the steps today too!
12/30-194.4 Man, pms this time around is intense! Can’t wait for the insatiable hunger to be gone! 50 net carbs yesterday-plus about half a brownie’s worth, whatever that was. And got all 10,000 steps in for a change! I’m ready to make today better than the past few days have been. Let’s do this!
12/31- 193.4 46 net carbs
1/1- 197.2 Wine was involved. Otherwise, I don’t think I overate by too much, nothing like Christmas! Back to business today, and it feels good already.

SW: 383.4 - Round # 40 for me! (5100 steps daily step goal, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out or junk food 6 days a week)
Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
12/28 383.4 – 5038 steps. I almost got my step goal, started too late. Eating ok, not the best even though I was under goal.
12/29 382.8 – 5469 steps. 2 days in a row doing short walks which helps and staying within calories.
12/30 381.0 – 5221 steps. No walk yesterday. Under calories. May not be under today, will try for sure. This group is really helping me be mindful of logging and what I eat. Just knowing I am sharing and reading some of the posts when I can helps me.
12/31 381.0 – 5235 steps. I am surprised, I thought I would be up. I had the munchies, but I logged it all and I was not too much over. Got in a short walk. The weekends are tough for me. I have a Zoom event Saturday. But I am going to start 2022 off right!
01/01 379.4 – 3739 steps. This drop is unexpected. I doubt it will stick with todays eats. We will see. If not, its ok. Back on track tomorrow.

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.

Round 173 (105th for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.
There are only 4 days to New Year's Eve & dance !! Challenge this year is to feel good on my dress!
Covid numbers are soaring in England (Omnicron) – the pandemic is still very much here: Covid is still very much rife! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, think before you head out, stay alert and 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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/28: 136.6 - managed to get in 9,4 miles walking in yesterday in-between the rain. Might not be so lucky today looking at the forecast!
12/29: 136.6 - 9.9 miles walked, planned around the rain again !
12/30: 137.2 - no walking yesterday due to persistent rain & taking the last opportunity to spend some time with DD,DS & respective families before we travel home today.
12/31: 136.6 – 6.66 miles walked yesterday, managed to get it in before we packed up and travelled home as it was a dry morning – for a change!!! More on track with my eating; but 244, 45 & 5g calories, carbs & fat over respectively. Need to walk 11 miles today to hit my challenge for this year, a challenge indeed!
01/01: Happy New Year!! Hope it is a better one for everyone than the last 2 years, Covid needs to be old news.
136.6 – 12.8 miles walked yesterday mostly made by possible by the fact that our visit to MIL in the care home was cancelled as one of the residents have tested positive Didn't wear my dress last as it felt too tight luckily had a contingency reserve dress in the wings !! Next year !! But had a brilliant night, we danced our feet of into the early hours. Good eating & drinking choices all within macros.
01/02: 136.6 – 13.32 miles walked yesterday to National Trust's Moseley Old Hall, a really mild day & our first picnic of the year! Calories well under, carbs 7g over. Come on body, time to start releasing those excess pounds!

Oldie rejoined after falling off the wagon. Need your support to stick to it, my body is begging for better treatment.
R173 SW: 100.7 Goal: maintain control over food. <100
12/28 - 100.7 (0.0) Traveling yesterday, usually bloating after but since back home to my scale don't really know what to compare to
12/29 - 100.9. (+0.2) Massive headaches. Must be eating too little (keeping it~1400 but rounding up uncertainties, so maybe too low). Had to eat a bit more salty and sweet foods yesterday to cope. That is probably the reason for the small up.
12/30 - 101.3 (+0.5) had to eat maintenance yesterday (2100) because the headache was bad, and the fact that it stopped after eating is a bad sign. Will compensate today with food and/or exercise
12/31 - 100.4 (-0.3) some exercise and keeping under calories. Today will be a challenge with lots of yummy food and alcohol. I think I will let myself indulge today eith no guilt. Will make it up to tomorrow. Managed to do ot for Christmas should be able to manage it now too.
01/01 - 101.5 (+0.8) Not surprised given the amount of salt and alcohol yesterday. Was debating if I should weigh myself at all, to not discourage myself. But thought I am strong enough to see the "demage" and get back on track. Lets see if this theory holds. Lots of fluids and light food olanned for today
01/02 -101.0 (+0.3) Lots of junk yesterday, but O think I stayed under calories anyway.

Hi, I am Annabelle. I just hit 60. Yikes!.
Female, 5'6
SW 268.8
GW 263
I am starting round one as well as being new to MFP . I was going to wait til Jan 1 but decided to start today. I have a couple events to go to before then but will be trying a eating mindfully approach versus limiting myself.
I am an Icu nurse and covid has put a number on my stress levels, and well...waistline and hips and weight. Since it started I probably put on 60 lbs and i was not near goal then. Well I am starting 2022 with a new attitude and plan on taking care of me.
12/28 268.8 lbs.
12/29: 267.6 lbs Today i was off work and went to pick up a few things in Ohio. I live about 30 min from the border in rural Pa . I went to the eye center to pick up my new glasses which has been on order since November, went to Joanne's to buy more fabric i did not need. I do sew quite a bit and have a small embroidery business on the side but if am near a fabric store its like a magnet pulls me in. Sewing is also a release and gives me satisfaction. Tonight, our two girls are coming over to have dinner. I have lots of pasta left over from the last couple days and i want it out of the house by new year's.
12/30 268 working
12/31 266.4. Working til 7 then off to families for small celebration
01/01 268
01/02: lbs 270.6. Too much sauerkraut and ham I think . It’s time to get serious. Working today .

Day/Weight/Comment
12/28/ 171.4/ Back to try again, gained 4 pounds over Christmas. Had pasta for dinner, and that'll do me till tomorrow. Going to make 2022 a year of extreme changes in my lifestyle. Little steps, and not be too harsh on myself, but I'll get there 😀

Wow! Finally got the up the nerve to weigh myself after the Thanksgiving to Christmas eat-a-thon. I tried to eat well for 2 the last days hoping to move the scale down so I would not know how much I really gained. This sounds very pathetic now that I have written it down. Funny I was just going to check out when the next 10 day challenge was going to start... hoping today would be some middle day giving me a chance to procrastinate some more. But kismet would be today so here I come again, hoping to relearn all my lessons again. #1Weigh myself and #2 Weigh my food and to be accountable seems what works best for me. Happy New Year and Good Luck to you all.
SW:124.6
Day/Weight/Comment
12/28- 124.6- Thank goodness not over 125, but I was trying to cheat myself by eating better yesterday and Sunday
12/29- 123.2- Since I have not weighted myself for several months I have no idea if yesterdays or todays weight are accurate. But ego wise being down like this mentally puts me in a nice place. Did a spin class and played pickleball yesterday- hate spin but is so good for me that I am going to try to do at least 3 x a week. Slept in this morning missing my Body Pump class, hopefully will try to do some weights this afternoon
12/30- 124.0- Knew this was going to be a rollercoaster ride...But now so much more aware of my body's idiosyncrasies probably will see a drop tomorrow. Have been really suffering with acid reflux so have had to restrict my diet and eating window- guess a perfect time to lose weight
12/31-124.0- Well did have wonderful dinner with the kids( who are adults now) But have not had spaghetti and meatballs it seems like forever- delicious... so it is very nice to be still 124. Yesterday 2 1/2 hours of great pickleball play over 54 players and 13 courts going great play and completion, but a little sore but not enough to keep me home today. Another great day today of 2 1/2 hours constant fantastic play - will be resting tomorrow. Happy New Year All!!!!
1/1- 119.6- EEks! -I know this is an anomaly. Had a horrible migraine yesterday, trouble eating and still bloating and heartburn. My physician has prescribed me diuretics which I take on a rare occasion to counter my bloat- it really relieves all over body pain but also really drops your weight number ( this only second time I took the pill in last 6 months, last time was only 4 pounds). Was really surprised, know it will be back in 120's tomorrow. Before my headache was to bad played 2 1/2 hours of fantastic pickleball, bummer no pickleball today. Happy New Year to all...
1/2- 122- Better then expected. Relaxing/Rest day perfectly plan by God! Beautiful snow fell all day and had nowhere to go- We will find out if the gas I stored from last year works in the snow blower later this morning. No church today, my church took this Sunday off... so no rush this morning. I did 90 minutes of spin at a leisure pace while watching Netflix and Essentrics stretch ( Why don't I do this everyday!!!!) My heartburn is doing so much better and body ache are so much better. But really need to try an anti inflammatory diet for the rest of the month.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/28 / 191.2 / My trend weight is definitely up this week but I'm back on my deficit so it'll just be a matter of time before the drops start happening again. I am traveling at the end of this round so my routine will be a bit skewed but my Dad was recently diagnosed as diabetic so eating well at his house won't be an issue. Day off from work today so we'll see what fun we get up to.. my 45 minute bike ride is already done!
12/29 / 191 / Working today, still bitterly cold so I'll be hopping on the Peloton for my exercise later today. We have a nice chicken dinner planned for tonight. Got my COVID booster this morning.
12/30 / 190.6 / Last day on a planned normal deficit for the next week so I'll be making it count. Tomorrow my husband has a special dinner planned and then Jan 1-5 we are travelling so I'll be eating at maintenance -10%. Still hoping to enter 2022 in the 180's!
12/31 / 188.6 / Proud of what I've accomplished this year... 104.4 pounds, from morbidly obese to overweight, looking forward to tackling 2022 in the same fashion. Happy New Years everyone!
1/1 / 190.6 / Happy New Year! Started with a 45 minute PR on the Peloton and now my husband and I are doing the 11 hour drive to my dad's for a late holiday visit.
1/2 / 188 / Made it to Dad's for our visit. Nice to see him... out of our usual exercise routine here but we brought some dumbbells and I will do some Peloton cardio that doesn't require equipment.

R173: Really!?! I’m going in the wrong direction! Need to put the brakes on and start caring what I eat. TODAY not Jan 1 is the beginning of my focus on weight loss again. No more of the holiday excess.
🎯Mini Goal: <205 (Repeat until I hit it!)
Exercise Goal for this round: Strength class twice per week. Walk the dog 100 miles in Dec & Jan!
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
12/28 207.7 Walked 2.4 miles, over 15k steps shopping! Started journalling for the day with breakfast but then nose dived at lunch with my pregnant daughter and her cravings for queso w/ chips & fried pickles … splitting a hamburger. Dinner was good but snacks were poorly chosen when I returned home. 2 glasses wine.
12/29 207.5 Walked 2.9 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Pretty good day but still not journalling my food which means that I eat more snacks and junk than I would if I was tracking.
12/30 207.8 No exercise, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Helped my daughter create a BabyList.com baby registry and unpack more boxes in her house since she is off work this week.
12/31 209.0 Walked 2 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, AF. Too many salty snacks yesterday. BUT I did clean out the fridge, start menu plans again for the new year and signed up for Strength Training 4x per week instead of just 2x. Why does the flip of the year always spur me on. Well I guess because I didn’t achieve and maintain my goal for 2021. My goal was to get under 200. I was this close at 201.1 in August but then let things get out of hand and of course the scale jumps right back up when you do something stupid … like forget this is a lifestyle and not a diet. So starting a fresh page in my journal and creating the lifestyle that will help me get down to my goal set my both of my doctors.
1/01 209.0 Walked 3.8 + 1 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not sure what happen or why but my heart started racing on my evening walk as we neared home. Heartbeat jumped up to 196. Marked the activity on my Apple Watch and iPhone to share with my doctor. Otherwise, quiet evening and early to bed … ready to start the new year!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎉 Well 2021 was a wash in that I lost 11 lbs but gained 8 back for a total loss of 3 lbs. Lost all my progress starting in October on a 16 day roadtrip and then just kept sliding. BUT I did meet Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last . Now to make the goal I’ve set for the past 2 years … <200 (Dr set target to reach & stay under 200).
1/02 208.0 Walked 3.1 miles, 1674 cal, 82 net carbs, AF. Planned my meals and did well though I went over my original target because of Cheetos with lunch and the appetizers set out for our family dinner. I did avoid the wine so didn’t have to worry about those calories.
My son and his wife are at the hospital … my granddaughter is on her way!!!

12/28 203.2 (-.2) Swam a mile in the pool yesterday and made meals for the next few days. My low weight was 202 on December 18th. I was hoping to be closer to that weight today, but I’m getting there. Drank all my water.
12/29 202.0 (-1.4) There it is. My previous low weight. Hoping for a new low by the end of 2021. No organized exercise today, but I will stay on plan with both food and water.
12/30 201.8 (-1.6) Hoping to sneak in a swim between my appointments today. I can’t believe 2021 is almost over.
12/31 202.4 (-1.0) I got in a good swim yesterday. Did not get all my water and I’m guessing that had an impact. Sending love and prayers to all those impacted by the fires near Denver. It looks like more than 500 homes burned in Superior and Louisville.
1/1 203.4(0) It finally has really begun to snow here in Denver, which we’ve really needed. I stayed home last night and after a Zoom call with my sisters, treated myself to a steak dinner. I always create a plan for a new year beginning with my accomplishments from the year prior. Losing weight has been on my list for years and it was so exciting to actually be able to list amazing progress. I’m over 60 pounds down for the year and have 43.4 pounds to go. What an amazing accomplishment. I love being surrounded by people who are walking this path along side me. Just look at what we’ve all accomplished. While we may not be as far along as we hoped, we’ve moved forward in wonderful ways. Happy New Year my friends. Wishing you happiness, good health and a year of growth and fun!
1/2 202.2 (-1.2) Still bouncing around a bit, but did get my water in yesterday. I’m heading to Orange Theory this morning for my first workout for the year. After a birthday dinner tonight, I’m expecting a bit of an increase tomorrow, but should be moving downward into the 100’s in the next week.13 -

1/02 - 147.3 - Food yesterday wasn't ideal, but I got it a little more together by dinner. Got all 90oz water in, though. Cold front blew in and it's below freezing, bleh. Remembered to bring my still-living plants inside, though! Have to go grocery shopping and to get myself a backpack for work (my computer case isn't cutting it anymore, too much stuff) but otherwise will stay inside. Not sure what lunch will be (leftover chili from last night will be used for dinner stuffs this week). I'm going to try to get moving here soon and get to the store prior to breaking my fast so I can grab something healthier. Last few days I've eaten an apple with natural peanut butter for lunch because nothing else we have sounds good. Need to remedy that with something warm and a little more nutrition (apple should be snack, not a full lunch!)

Previous Day's Comments12/28 - I made a booboo. I remembered to turn my alarm off for yesterday, but forgot to change my alarm to 6am instead of 330am! I woke up, weighed myself, chugged water, and then realized it's 330! I'm working from home this week and didn't have to be awake until 6 so back to bed I went. Didn't reweigh when I got up since I had chugged that water and went with the slightly skewed super early weight. Sodium and a very late dinner likely contributing. Also no proper TMI yesterday which is also not helping, I'd assume. Completed workout yesterday and today NF has me taking a 10 minute YETI walk (Year End Thankfulness Index - its a week long 2021 wrap-up journey to reflect on the successes of the year to set us up for a solid start of 2022 health wise). Sounds like BF is just waking up which means the pup will be up and moving so I can take her with. Tonight I get to use my air fryer to try stuffed mushrooms! I've never had them and BF has never had air fryer made ones so we shall see how it goes. I know this week's menu includes his homemade chili, chili cheese burgers, frito pie, and my attempt at making air fryer wings. Not sure if we are just eating the stuffed mushrooms for dinner of if we'll have something additional as well. Already working on water (hit 90oz yesterday yay!) and will continue that trend. Edit: Due to late dinner at friend's bday gathering, I'm not sure I will hit 16 hours (will be 1pm) so I'm going to fast as long as I can handle. Hopefully I can make it to at least 15 hours for lunch at noon.
12/29 - Alright, back down a bit into a "comfort zone" showing I didn't gain fat (or at least not a ton). Goals good yesterday, got my walk in. Today is workout day so I'll sneak that in somewhere. Stuffed mushrooms were good (as an appetizer)! Air fryer is amazing already. Took the rest to Fam and they loved them! Also made my best batch of chicken fajitas for dinner (even BF, who doesn't particularly like fajitas enjoyed them). Not sure dinner tonight. Think my attempt at air fryer wings is for NYE and chili is New Year's Day since it's crockpot and BF has to be up super early for work. Still have a chili cheese burgers and frito pie to choose from tonight. Will have to sneak in veggies at lunch. Forgot a couple items at store, so lunch break is yet another store run. Ugh. 3 days in a row! This holiday thing really has me messed up. At least I can grab some easy lunch ideas while I'm there.
12/30 - Not bad for a spaghetti dinner (hello carbs!). I also made (using my new Christmas toys) homemade baguettes which BF requested so he could make garlic bread. DEFINITELY better than store bought! Super proud of myself for that. Water was good. Workout knocked out. Today is rest day but, depending on how work is, I'll go for a walk over lunch with the pup (since I shouldn't need another store run, whew). We've decided to wait on Frito pie and chili cheese burgers until after the new year so we can use BF's leftover homemade chili rather than canned chili for them. I'm thinking of making chicken and rice tonight, just have to see if I have all the ingredients first. Have steamable bags of veggies as a side to go with it. All other habits good.
12/31 - Fam made dinner last night and it was really our last chance to hang out until mid-January (they both work the same lockdown schedule BF does) so we went there instead. Smothered venison patties with homemade mashed potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts. Water was good. Not quite sure why I'm feeling bloated and weight is up, but hopefully it drops back down. Tonight I attempt my air fryer wings. Tomorrow is chili. If we have nothing going on, Sunday is meal prep for the week of lunches and I'll make my chicken and rice for dinner then. Today is workout day. No plans for NYE except to watch my Michigan Wolverines. Go Blue!!! I believe, starting in the new year, working from home will no longer be an option. This will make things a little more challenging in the workout/sleep department, but hopefully easier in the eating department (easier to stick to fasting and, so long as I meal prep right, eating healthy balanced lunches). Will have to budget well (gas prices and more frequent car maintenace with all those miles!) and plan meals better.
1/01 - I slept very wrong, waking up with low back and neck pain. I'm used to the low back pain since surgery, but this was far worse and radiated down my legs. I skipped the scale and immediately warmed up my corn sack to help sooth the pain and stiffness away. I just felt pain free enough to complete the workout that was due yesterday. Instead, we viewed 2 houses yesterday and put an offer in on one. I'm not holding out a ton of hope for that, but the other is mid-construction and in an HOA, leaving less competition for us as they cannot be used as B&Bs. Also less likely to get immediate offers as there are none yet and it's been on the market for about 15 days. Yesterday was okay, not exactly great. Water was 5-10oz short, so not all bad. Air fryer wings were phenomenal and I had an entire bag of steamable veggies with them. Chili is on for tonight with leftovers for frito pie and chili cheese burgers this week. I have one more dinner to come up with (BF prefers crockpot since his work schedule is now far more demanding) for this week. I found a recipe for air fryer stuffed peppers I want to make for my lunches. Will grocery shop for all those tomorrow as well as meal prep. Today has started off not great by way of food, but I'm determined to remedy that. Slightly behind on water, but not near as far behind as yesterday (plus the fact that Fam was out of water and I had to use tap. It tastes horrid and I struggled to drink it, but I got most of that last 30oz cup down). HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

1: 207.0 Had a few drinks and some bar food, but still started fasting at my normal time. Was home and in bed earlier than I usually am. Didn't sleep well and ended up reading for an hour or two in the middle of the night. Starting a 3-day "juice" fast with an MFP friend today. I don't juice, so I'm doing protein shakes instead with frozen berries, MCT oil and a super greens supplement. Will probably have 2 a day, but I'll have to feel it out and be flexible about it. Still intend to stick to IF schedule with minimum 16-hour fast.
🎉Happy New Year! 🎉
2: 204.3 😮 I know I drop weight quickly during a cleanse, but I was not expecting 2.7 pounds overnight! I know it's not all "real" weight loss and there will be some rebound after these three days, but it's a nice number to see on the scale. January 13th goal was 205.
Had one protein/supplement shake yesterday after a 21-hour fast, and I'm feeling really good after 15 hours of fasting so far. Today might be a 2 shake day.
