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 .

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Happy New Year! What a great group! You all inspire me with your persistence and good choices!
I had a mini goal to make in to 195 by New Years, so 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?!
01/02: 196.6 lbs (+0.8)
Had a feeling that it would be up today. Didn't make it to the gym yesterday so going today.

Ok, two days running with no snacks, no added sugars, and calories below goal. Yay me! I’m determined not to bounce back to the 80s, and would like to be down a few pounds by the time our new round of dog training classes start Jan. 10. We video one another, and I hate being the fat lady with the beautiful dog! Rory is 6 months old today. 🙂
12/29 - 179.2, ave 180.1
Sticking’ with the plan!

Dark, wet, cold day, but I’m taking the pup out for a run. Then some house cleaning. Then, who knows? Have a lovely!
12/31 - 179.8, Ave 179.6
Salt. No problem, and I got out of the 80s by the end of the year as I’d hope. Wishing you all a safe and happy New Year’s Eve! 🥂

Finally feel I’m on the right track, and I’m feeling optimistic about staying this way. So HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone!

Brrrr! Big temp drop from yesterday, which makes me want soup. Maybe I’ll make a nice pot of minestrone. I baked another mince pie yesterday for New Year, but gave half away to friends & neighbors, had a reasonable piece last night, and enough left for one more piece each for DH & me. If I plan my day, it fits into my calories (if not my added sugar!). Off to run the pup — ground is frozen so no mud! Yay!

12/28 173. I've been avoiding the scale bad idea. I've been obliviously in denial but not really. Ready to hop back in and take charge. I think this challenge is a good start.
LWR total body workout 12 min
Steps 10,210
Avoided chips!
12/29 171.8 lunch with my friend. Caesar salad dressing on side with shrimp. Decided not to order fries on side. Picked up Crumbl cookies and cut in fourths to share. One glass red wine in the evening. I think I had one square of a mini Hershey bar which is good for me lol. Cycle started.
Hit my 10k step count goal with some overage.
Avoided chips!
12/30 171.4. Feel a little bloated in am.
LWR 12 min low impact total body workout. Gave me a good sweat. Good workout to get myself back into it. I was ready to do a workout before lunch! That's a change.
I'm really kinda enjoying writing these notes and Journaling. Big thanks for these challenges!
Steps 7372
Avoided chips. Will be avoiding chips and rice my next round.
12/31 171.6. Made trial run of paksiw in the pressure cooker and it was great. I did indulge. Enjoyed New Years eve with my little guy. Had fresh popped popcorn and a glass of red wine to ring in the new year.
Steps 7792. Avoided chips.
1/1 172.6. Feeling very bloated this morning. I enjoyed my meals yesterday. It's New Year's 2022. Cooked (paksiw) filipino style for lunch with oxyails and beef back ribs. Sparkling peach cider after lunch. For dinner we had New York strips. We made a New Years cake from scratch. Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream layers and vanilla buttercream on the outside. My son loves to bake and was so excited about baking a new years cake. Now what to do with the rest of the cake 🤔
Steps 6176. Avoided chips.
1/2 172.6. I'm happy to weigh the same as yesterday and surprised it didn't go up. This gives me hope for this round. I feel bloated. Starting yoga challenge with Adrienne today. I love her videos. I got a yoga mat from my secret santa and I can't wait to use it today.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/27 …..192.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/28 …..193.6 ….. (Trend weight 191.7) I’m so very sick right now with what appears to be a bad cold and sore throat. Pasta last night was easy on the throat but hard on the scale. I went through 3 boxes of tissues since last night. I’ll have to send my daughter on a drug store run. Good luck everyone this round!
12/29 …..191.2 ….. Trend weight 191.7)
I am still so sick. I thank everyone for the well-wishes! It does appear to be a horrible head cold which is not healing as well as I would like due to my glucose being through the roof during this Christmas season. Only 2000 steps yesterday which is mainly bathroom or refilling coffee or water. No sleep last night. I hope this will pass soon! Nice to see a drop on the scale when my appetite has been just fine (of course!). Must be my body burning calories in fight mode.
12/30 …..192.0 ….. (Trend weight 191.7) Sickness getting worse. Moving into chest now. Lots of phlegm. Throat hurts from the coughing, not illness but it’s bad pain. Pressure in ears. Still no temp. I am hearing about other illness in my general area. Omnicon not within 150 miles of my county. Only 9 counties in Michigan affected and they are all downstate so I don’t think that is involved still. Good small meals yesterday of good choices but there was Christmas cookies and only 4000 steps as I layed on the couch most of the day.
12/31 …..191.6 ….. (Trend weight 191.7)Still so sick.
01/01 …..190.0 ….. (Trend weight 191.5) A small breakfast and a beautiful well-rounded dinner cooked by my daughter kept me in check. I did get a few pieces of bite-sized candy out of my stocking but NO CHRISTMAS COOKIES! No cookies also means less 2% regular milk (which also bloats me up). I’m very proud of how far everyone has come this year. You guys have made such wonderful progress on so many fronts! Thank you all for sharing your personal stories and your inner-most secrets with me, in all subjects from weight loss to family things. I learn everyday from you all and I also gather strength to go on. Happy New Year Everyone.
01/02 …..189.8 ….. (Trend weight 191.4) Dipping my toes into the 180’s and hope to Cannon Ball right into them any minute now. I am very happy to see my trend weight going down. It feels like the Universe has renewed it’s faith in me that I am truly shedding pounds. Still sick but my appetite is not affected.

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.

1/2 121.2 ? Happy New Year everyone! My weight dipped nicely right before Christmas and popped back up because of where I’m at in my cycle. Hoping to lose some of that water weight this week. I have been maintaining my running at least 3x a week and using the spin bike 2x a week and strength training 2-3x a week. I’m feeling good and have been eating pretty healthy while I wasn’t posting. Today I plan on meal planning and relaxing. My husband and I went for a 3 mile walk this morning. Breakfast was an eggwhite omelet with peppers and onions plus 2 slices of whole wheat bread that I made for the first time yesterday. I realized that making bread is so much fun! I think I’m going to start making it every other weekend or something like that.
