YOU CAN’T WALK YOUR WAY OUT OF A BAD DIET. Last year I walked over 500 miles and still gained weight.
Losing weight will help me -
…feel healthy and strong again.
…fit comfortably into my work clothes.
…slide on a pair of jeans.
…hike in the spring.
…look good for my daughter’s high school graduation.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Previous posts:I need to be back here with you all after a 5-week hiatus. I had my scale with me, which only confirmed my need for a disciplined approach.
I am afraid I have not kept up with reading your posts over the past weeks, so I am hoping all is well with my old friends. I was made aware of the fragility of life when my 61-year-old neighbor / good friend passed away while I was away. Complications from Covid seems to be the reason.
And hello to those of you who have joined since mid-December.
1/27: 212.8
Ok, back at the tracking after a long lazy break from reality. Well, not a total break. I kept one oar in the water at all times regarding work. But you will never convince me that remote working is more efficient than in-person presence at the office. (Take it with a grain of salt because I am the same guy who said computer aided design will never replace hand drafting. Ha!)
Anyway… I have some work to do on this body of mine. I have my annual holiday-damage-control to do. JGMTD176
1/28: 213.4
Yesterday was a day where I chose to eat the comfort food set before me. Pot roast at Rotary lunch, and cake.
On another note, I dislike winter very much. Going to try to get moving this weekend somehow.
1/29: 211.8
Happy Saturday everyone!

“KAREN YOU HAVE GOT THIS”
'Consistency is the ONLY key to achieving any desired result'
MY “WHY’s AND HOW’s CONSISTENT List”:
I want to be free from diabetes, heart failure, high blood pressure
I want to walk, hike, shop, explore
I want to prove ‘YES I CAN’
I will educate myself on nutrition, prioritize health over body image and/or weight loss.
I will hold myself accountable, not using any situation of person as a scapegoat
I will pay attention to what I eat, and keep a food log
I will stay physically active
I will keep realistic expectations
I will accept compliments and decide whether input from others will influence me
I will learn to recognize portion size, calories, and when I am full
I will say to myself, “Ok that’s it, I’m done!”
I will focus on the process of developing good habits, rather than a finite result
I will I do the best I can with the tools I have
I will say to myself, “KAREN YOU HAVE GOT THIS”
……..
My long term vision is to maintain my weight in the BMI ‘Normal Weight Range’ of 22.7
Why I want this goal is for managing my heart health and diabetes.
And to feel enticed to continue hiking and enjoying family and friends.
Positive actions and reasons:
1. daily logging of nutrition & water,
providing visual information to help me choose wisely
(my goals: 4 veggies, 2 fruit, 64oz water)
2. weekly movement,
providing lubricant to my joints to keep them mobile
(my goals: 90” of cardio, 60” of ST, flexibility of 40”)
3. daily thanks to God and self,
providing a relationship/direction with God and reassurance/strength for me

29: 203.3 🥚 Friday evening through Saturday evening were quite indulgent. Late night snacks while drinking and multiple fast food meals aren't usually my thing, but I had a fun weekend and know the bump up is temporary. Back on track today.
30: 202.5 🥚 Calories and carbs were great yesterday but not enough water. Still feeling bloated, likely a combo from the weekend and hormones.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/27 - 198.4 - Stayed below 200 this morning but the real test will be if I can maintain this through the weekend. Ate pretty well yesterday and definitely at a deficit considering all the working out I did. This morning woke up and did essentially an hour of leg workouts so I fully expect to not be able to move tomorrow lol.
01/28 - 199.7 - Have to imagine just normal water fluctuations here, especially considering my workouts this morning weren't as sweat-inducing. I was supposed to do a 20 minute lower body workout but after yesterday my body said NO! and I listened. Sunday will mark the 1 year anniversary of the 6 day stay in the hospital and 1.5 months on supplemental oxygen. I'm going to use my lungs hard this weekend in celebration of making it through that.
01/29 - 199.5
01/30 - 202.8
01/31 - 200.8 - This is why I didn’t count my chickens before they hatched. Final weekend before tax season kicks into full gear so I did some extra eating/drinking. Now I’m done drinking until after tax season and the workouts will continue. I woke up at 5am just to get my hour+ of workouts in and I feel great. I will lose 20 lbs by the end of tax season… ideally by my 32nd birthday in March!

I was really craving something sweet last night, but I resisted. I did have some air-popped popcorn. I’m trying to stop the night munching this round. I never used to do this—not sure how I got into this habit. With the brutal cold I haven’t been getting much exercise, but we have two+ hours of doggy school tonight, so that will get me moving a bit. Stay warm, all!
1/28 - 178.6, 178.5
It was nice to get out to doggy school and move a bit last night—it’s been too cold for me outdoors. I don’t plan to go anywhere today—brrrrr.
1/29 - 179.6, 178.9
Woops. These cold days make me crave fats and carbs, and I gave in last night. Ok, reset. It’s bitter cold here, but little snow. I’m thinking of all of you in the path of the east coast storm. Be safe.
1/30 - 180, 179.2
Calories on target yesterday, so this is time lag. It's fine. I kept breakfast low and will have salad for lunch. Making Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup for dinner. Sounds very satisfying to me! Stay warm!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/26 …..194.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
01/27 …..196.8 ….. (Trend weight 194.0) Nice clean teeth after the dentist yesterday. Apparently I used them too much afterward. Wow! What a jump on the scale. Travel always yields too much money spent, lots of car driving and sitting and restaurant food. Working on that today!
01/28 …..196.4 ….. Trend weight 194.2) Slightly better on the scale this morning. It sure comes off slower than it goes on! I’m going to try to push water today. I am getting a new refrigerator delivery today with install going in tomorrow after it sits for 24 hours. I am hoping for a full kitchen gut and remodel sometime this year. Probably in better weather and not in the dead of winter due to supply and how far we are from everything. Too many trips in winter.
01/29 …..195.2 ….. (Trend weight 194.3) Better choices. Quantities meh. New fridge won’t be in today. He measured wrong and the fridge is ¾” too high for my bridge cabinets that are attached to a pantry cabinet. That means the cabinets have to come down and either the bulk head redone or everything moved but real estate is a precious commodity in that kitchen. It’s a very large house but the kitchen has a horrible footprint and the kitchen is pretty small. I am not real happy right now. The fridge is sitting in the middle of my back foyer room and my living room is still not done. Sad face on the house issues but smiley face on seeing another drop on the scale. I’m working on more progress but also getting that trend weight to turn around.
01/30 …..197.6 ….. (Trend weight 194.6) Spiraling out of control. Low movement (only 4000+ steps). Pizza, real chocolate candy (not sugar-free). Milk (lactose bloats me). All the wrong choices. I could have done so much better. I did drink a TON of water. Otherwise, bad, bad day. Sadly, I deserve this.
01/31 …..197.0 ….. (Trend weight 194.9) In the right direction! Today I will try not to say one thing, then do another.
02/01 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
02/02 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
02/03 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

Hi, I’m Kathy.
57, F, 5’8”
2nd round! Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.
Return to MFP SW (Dec 2021): 267
HSW: 267
CW: 256.6
UGW for now: 200, then reevaluate
Goal for this round: less than I started with
2022 goals: move more (okay, move some), eat mindfully
Day/Weight/Comment
1/27 256.6 Fully expected to be up today after taking the easy way out for dinner last night and having (carefully considered, but still) fast food. Got more than my usual steps in, and plenty of water, which may have helped? I read a thread on MFP about NEAT and so I’ve also been mindfully increasing steps/effort/movement in just my usual routine. I definitely see an uptick in my steps so it’s doing some good.
1/28 256.6 Headed to the doctor in a bit to see what’s up with my knee. I think it’s likely arthritis, but I hope we can figure out a solution that will let me work out without pain. Otherwise, meals are planned and logged and I have my water sitting next to me. Fridays are pizza night at our house but I’ll try to compensate for that the rest of the day.
1/29 255.8 Got some things done and a fair number of steps in.
1/30 256.2 Had a headache so I sat on the couch all day and watched The Sound of Music (and some football). Comfort at its finest! But I also wasn’t hungry.
1/31 255.6 Back at it. Doctor is sending me for an orthopedic consult for the knee, so waiting for them to call. Physical therapy starts in a couple of weeks. In the meantime I’ll just keep on keeping on. So far so good!

No change. Tired of seeing that number! Really hard workout yesterday and feel sore this morning. Maybe it's fluid retention. Lot's of water today.

Ugh.
01/30: 191.4 lbs (+0.8)
Knew that was coming. Ate out with friends last night - pizza. Carbs always spike my weight. Good workout yesterday so staying positive that this isn't a trend up, just waiting for my body to catch up!

1/27- 198.0 (+2.0) I had my indulgence meal last night and loved every bite. I’m back on track today hoping to finish this ten day’s strong. Swimming was good yesterday. No organized exercise today, just happily painting away. I put on some of my favorite old comfortable sweatpants last night to wear to bed and they are falling off.
1/28- 198.0 (+2.0) I should start dropping tomorrow. Last night I was sitting in one of my chairs with my feet next to me when I realized I could easily reach my foot. And so I experimented with my flexibility and…woohoo!! I will be able to paint my toenails easily now. A totally unexpected and surprising NSV. Now, where is that polish?
1/29- 197.6 (+1.6) Slowly coming down after my indulgence meal the other day. It will drop further in the next few days. I swam yesterday for an hour. It felt good. I discovered, at least according to my Apple Watch, that I burn more calories swimming breaststroke instead of free style. I guess it makes sense since I use larger movements on breaststroke. So, I’m alternating. Today is Orange Theory Fitness and lots of water. Hoping for a swoosh tomorrow.
1/30- 198.0 (+2.0) Had a great workout yesterday at Orange Theory and spent the rest of the day painting. I was within calories, but definitely didn’t get enough water. A little disappointed, but expecting the loss to come soon.
1/31- 196.4 (+.4) Phew! I must have had a lot of salt in my indulgence meal a few days ago. Finally close to my low weight. No organized exercise today, just staying on plan.

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. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

1/27 / 179.8 / Fun to start with a taste of the new decade. Getting my walks in, riding the Peloton, and eating nourishing and delicious food. Happy the weekend is almost here!
1/28 / 180.4 / Busy work day, slightly shorter Peloton ride, dinner, and then a video call with my MIL for nearly three hours. Time to rest!
1/29 / 179.6 / Sun is shining so we're going to walk to the grocery store for a couple things for brunch. I have the dentist today, I want to do some core strength, and we're going to a movie tonight. Dinner and my popcorn already pre-tracked so my day can work around it.
1/30 / 180 / Fun day yesterday... one shorter walk and a long one where I ran into a friend. Hubby and I had a food court dinner and went to see A King's Man. Off to snowshoe in the mountains today.
1/31 / 180.2 / Another Monday is here. I am donating blood right after work so staying hydrated and nourished beforehand is key!

Again, I didn't go crazy on my relaxed weekend, I was only 204 kcal over (MFP has set me at 1,620 kcal) so happy to have a maintain. I've still got a few days of hormone fluctuations to go but will be strict again. I'm going to start exercising tomorrow but will not eat the extra calories (this was my downfall last time I was on a weightloss journey).9 -

1/28- 186.8 Well, my body is not following its usual pattern this time around! Usually by now, I’m in the thick of a 10 day stall, not dropping 2 lbs overnight! I’ll take it though, that’s for sure! 69 net carbs yesterday, steps hit, and Pelo ride done.
1/29- 187.4 Kind of expected that. The hormones had me nibbling for most of the day. It’s all good though. Today will be better! 66 net carbs and step goal hit.
1/30- 186.8 Back down! 47 net carbs and step goal hit.
1/31- 187.8 Expected, after a snack sesh last night. Back on the train today!7 -

1/27 139.6 (trend 140.6) Back at it x
1/28 139.2 (trend 140.4) My lowest trend weight, this means my Christmas gains are finally gone! Had a busy day cleaning, preparing for guests and didn't stop to eat, only snacks. Going to a party tomorrow, haven't done that in literally years as I'm not the sociable type. Only going because OH wants me there to support him, dreading it!
1/29 138.2 (trend 140.1) Woa! Nice big drop! Urgh, so stressed about this bloody party tonight, found out last night that it's a formal thing, the host is wearing a suit, damn! Fine for my OH as he can just chuck a suit and tie on but for me that means hair, nails, make up etc. My hands and arms are covered in cuts and bruises from working on my kitchen reno, I'm well overdue a hair cut, no clue how to do make up anymore, I haven't worn anything formal since my wedding 4 years ago when I was 30lbs heavier and I have no idea what I'm gonna wear! Arghhh. I don't wannaaaaaa!
1/30 138.8 (trend 139.9) Trend weight finally into the 130s! So the party was fine if a bit awkward, I did get a lot of grief for it having been so long since I last saw all my hubby's friends and there was a bit of frostiness towards me from some of the women but hey ho. It was nice to not feel self conscious about my weight for once, I wore one of my teenage daughter's dresses in the end!
1/31 141.4 (trend 140.1) Well who'd have thought a tiny 7 inch pizza would cause such a big gain, sigh. It's frustrating, I really thought I was leaving the 140s behind me at last.

Checking in from mobile: 121.6 went to spin this morning and it felt really good. Then I did a super relaxing yin yoga class tonight which was the perfect way to wind down after a super busy day at work. Food was good today but I was pretty hungry even with eating all of my calories an extra 1 or 2 extra (I think due to worrying about a presentation I had at 2, so the stress hormones were flowing for most of the day. The presentation went really well though!!)9

I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), complete all 6 programmed strength training sessions during my 4 days off per week

1/27 Did a snatch, renegade row, clean, push-up workout this morning. I interviewed with the surgical department at the hospital closer to me and now I have lots to think about. Back to work tomorrow for 2 days. Leftover egg casserole for lunch. Cabbage soup with seitan for dinner. Pull day for strength with a lot of deadlifts and I started put plenty sore.. wonder how I’ll feel tomorrow afternoon! Protein: 149
1/28 work 1/2. I updated my goals on mfp to reflect 0.5 loss per week instead of 1 and now my diary is all messed up.. wrong calorie and macro targets on every future day. I looked it up and it appears to have been a known problem since 2015… anyone ever run into this and been able to fix it? I contacted customer support. Husband made a really yummy sweet potato broccoli stew from loveandlemons for dinner. Protein: 132
1/29 work 2/2. I tried updated my goals again today and it fixed my diary, glad the problem is resolved. Shakshuka for dinner. Protein: 126
1/30 really nice day outside today. I enjoyed some sunshine and did a push-up, KB swing, squat workout outside and took a walk. Leg day for strength.. my squats have been feeling really good. I did sets of 6 at 205 today. Okonomiyaki for dinner. Protein: 164

1/31 144.4 Another lovely day! Feels like spring and is making me ready to garden. We are expecting snow and ice this week though. I hate driving to work in ice. I interviewed with a job in the cath lab today. I think I might end up staying put though. I really like my boss and 3 12’s just allows for so much scheduling flexibility. I can easily get big chunks of time off and I really appreciate being able to run errands at odd hours on week days without crowds. I’m feeling so good in the gym.. seems like I’m just getting PR after PR. Took a walk, did a devil’s press and box jump workout, and then did a press day. Got sets of 5 bench press at 115 which is good for me. Bench has always been one of my weakest lifts. Protein: 139

1/27 169.6. Woo hoo!! I've been doing a LWR workout for the last six days. I can feel myself getting a bit stronger each day. Yesterday after work I walked my dog and then did my workout. That led to me moving around more after work. I did the same today.
1/28 170.1. Went to visit my parents.

1/31 170.2 I was really worried about getting on the scale after a weekend away. Crisis averted. Will see what the scale says tomorrow. I added half a scoop of collagen to my coffee and mixed the other half with my pb honey that I spread on my toast. Not bad. That scoop of collagen helps keep me fuller longer.
