Day/Weight/Comment
2/26 ~ 200.2. Went on a 7.5k walk and out for dinner was wondering if my sodium intake would be too high but I seemed to fair ok. Happy Saturday!!
2/27 ~ 199.4 I was busy in the day and the weather was terrible here so I decided to go walk the 2 largest Supermarkets to get my steps in. It worked! Hit steps and activity.
2/28 ~ 198.9 Steps and activity good. Focusing on hitting my calorie range and hitting my Fats (macros), I tend to look at calories and slight my fats so I am trying to get balanced. I am dropping fairly fast so I am over estimating but that can be because SO is home and I figure he is over using the olive oil. ... Let's bring on March!!
3/1 ~ 198.7 ... 11,000 and 62 minutes. Hit calories and upped fats.
3/2 ~ 198.8 ...13,500 and 94 min. Unplanned dinner out with oldest son. Went on a short walk around town while waiting for them to meet us. Hit fats for sure. Happy Hump Day!!
3/3 ~ 197.9 ... Not sure how this happened I was expecting an increase I forgot about a pizza fundraiser with no room in the freezer so we had it for dinner! 10,000 and 68 min. I developed a sciatica issue yesterday afternoon and am moving very slow today. Walking does help but I'm not sure I can push my step goals today as I can usually rush a few steps here and there.
3/4 ~ 199.3 ... While my weight made a large jump my body fat lost a whole %, muscle mass up 2%, interesting! I'm sure everything will change again within the next few days. 11,000 and 74 min. Sciatica still bothering me, doing lots of stretching. Happy Friday All!!

@_JeffreyD_ I’m sorry about your neighbor. We have a friend going through something similar. Don’t know what’s wrong with her but I’m and out of the hospital/rehab/home for the last 3 weeks. She told her husband she wants to die because of the pain and asked his permission yesterday “to go.” Married about 60 years. Not on hospice but maybe after the PET scan a doctor can order that. Tests a year or so ago showed nothing. It’s so sad. Prayers for your neighbor’s family and friends and for ours.6

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.

2/26 118.5 In-n-Out Flying Dutchman seemed really salty to me but salt doesn’t usually make me gain. 🤷♀️
2/27 119.5 (No TMI x 2?) Sewing day today and low carb snacky lunch.
2/28 119.5 Somewhat productive sewing day. Enough other movement that I didn’t end up with a headache due to arthritis in my neck. DD#2 was there, I took her home after. DGD#3 came down to hug me and I felt DGGB#1 move - 21 weeks down, 19 to go. Art Quilts, etc this morning and I’m off!
3/1 119.0 1/2 Greek salad for dinner w/steak for dinner yesterday’s OMAD after 20 hour IF, tonight burgers (from the grill) and veg.
3/2 119.0 I know I have been lacking in the most important macro lately - protein. I need to make more of an an effort to get that in.
3/3 119.0 Drank half of a high protein coffee yesterday before DH said he was hungry. We went to El Pollo Loco. I ate a thigh and leg (these pieces keep getting smaller and smaller,) the Loco Salad was nothing but iceberg lettuce (I ate half,) the broccoli was good. I’ll finish the coffee today when I break my fast. I’m beginning to think the scale is stuck. EDIT: almost 8.5 hours of sleep!
3/4 119.5 Ghengis Grill for early lunch yesterday-chicken and veg, 3 small meat only tacos at 6PM7 -

2/26 / 176 / This is a new low weight for me. I am 8 pounds away from the original goal I set to lose 125 pounds. At 168, I will be in my normal BMI range. It's funny because it's SO close after the distance I've travelled but mentally it sorta feels far yet. One day at a time, am I right? So thankful to be walking this journey with all of you.
2/27 / 175.8 / We had a great day yesterday. We drove up north with friends for dog grooming and brunch. My husband and I went to the movies at night. Got a good lower body strength day and walk fit in between the two events.
2/28 / 177.2 / Huge day of exercise today... first we snowshoed for 1.5 hours, then we did a nature walk of just over 40 minutes, and I finished the day with 60 minutes on the Peloton and a 5 minute stretch. The weather was so amazing!
3/1 / 176.4 / Busy day yesterday but I got in my 10K steps. I am starting to get the house ready for company as my dad is flying in later this week. Work is also busy and we went out at night to see one more of the Best Picture nominees for the Oscars.
3/2 / 176.2 / My brother arrived last night so we had dinner at my Mom's house. We each got take-out but my husband and I picked a different restaurant that fit into our needs a bit better. I also retested my FTP on the Peloton yesterday and I've made some great gains there. Feels awesome.
3/3 / 176.4 / Planned maintenance day today as I'm off to the Flames game with my husband for work and there will be less control on food and drink than normal. Got my Peloton ride done before work.
3/4 / 173.4 / Flames game was fun.. we had box seats for a corporate event so there was plenty of food and drink. Unfortunately they lost in OT! I haven't been to a hockey game in years. My Dad gets in for a 10 day stay today so the routine will be impacted for sure but I have a solid foundation of habits.

GW-149
2/26-169-Long day in the car yesterday, so not much water. Was gone for a couple of days, but made wise food choices. I want to get a walk and horse ride in today and DH wants to go fishing.
3/1-171-Big weekend of eating and it hasn’t gotten any better. I’ve been transplanting my seedlings I’ve sprouted and we had frost while I was gone. The ones in the ground did fine. Those in containers, sitting out in the open are dead. We have another cold night coming up....
3/2-DNW-Cooked a turkey.
3/3-170-Made turkey soup. I am experimenting with the turkey from what I read on another thread......you cook the turkey, take all of the meat off of the bones, and place meat in a baking pan, pour all juice and drippings over meat. Simmer stock made from bones, skin and some spices and veges then pour that over turkey and freeze. When ready to eat it, thaw overnight and heat the next day 30 min. This saves carving the turkey while you are trying to get everything else ready. I’ll let you know how it goes.
3/4-170 Well, I made turkey soup and it’s got some salt..... I went for a short walk in the morning, especially to tire the dogs out since I was taking them to get their shots. Friend asked me to come over and quilt for a few hours in the afternoon. Quick horse ride after that then made dinner. I had pork ribs I seasoned and put in oven on low for 2 hours then just grilled to brown and they were good. Lots I want to do today!!!7 -

Ended Round 178 at 263.6 which was 0.2 up from round 177. I had three rest days and TOM during the round so I understand the bump. Looking forward to a downward trend for round 179.
Goals: consistency and dedication. My motivation is gone so I just need consistency to keep me going.
2/26 - 264.8 - Down 15.2 pounds - I had a really heavy dinner last night Homemade tacos. Worth every calorie. I still worked out and I am still proud of my progress.
2/27 - 264.4 - Down 15.6 pounds - I volunteered at a health fair yesterday and it was intense. Tons of walking and sweating. I eventually abandoned my post and got to participate in several rounds of Zumba 💃🏾
2/28 - 264.2 - Down 15.8 pounds - Looks like the effects of TOM are dissipating, finally! I wanted to be 259 by 2/28, but with 3 rest days and TOM so close to the end of the month it just didn't work out. Hoping to hit the 250's either this round or next. Side note: I understand now why you shouldn't shop when hungry. I went into the store to buy lasagna noodles, bananas, and carrots. I ended buying all of that plus a bunch of snacks yesterday. Loving those low cal ice creams. Brownie fudge something. The whole pint is 480 calories. I ate about half of it lol. I also got salt and vinegar kettle chips and veggie straws. I basically ate 1 real meal which was homemade tacos and then a bunch of junk plus it was rest day. I don't know how I'm seeing a loss on the scale. super excited to start my new workout program today. Turbo Fire. I've been craving some fun cardio. I did this program several years ago and I lost a lot of weight. Hoping for the same, but better since I have more control of my nutrition.
3/1 - 262.2 - Down 17.8 pounds - I am so super excited to write this post today. I now understand how TOM affects my weight on the scale. I've dropped all the pounds gained just like that. So happy! I did start a new workout program yesterday which is heavy on the cardio, but it's also more on par with my activity level so I can push a little harder. So proud of myself. It's a 90 day program so I expect that I will see great transformation in my body over the next 3 months. Really excited for the results.
3/2 - 261.8 - Down 18.2 pounds - Feeling good. I'm really enjoying my new workout program. 5 days left and so hoping to get into the 250's.
3/3 - 261.2 - Down 18.8 pounds - So close to 20 pounds down and that brings all sorts of joy. Really surprised by the drop as I went over my calories and it was rest day. I signed up for a diet bet and at this rate I should definitely win. I've signed up for dietbet like 4 times now, and I always mess it up in the end. Now that my mindset has changed and I am being consistent I feel like I can actually win my money back and a few dollars more.
3/4 - 261.4 - Down 18.6 pounds - Yesterday sucked! LOL. After a long day at work and way to long in the store looking for a good pan to bake in I came home to make lasagna. The lasagna took way longer than expected. By time I got to my workout I was so unmotivated. I got through it but I wasn't able to push myself like I wanted. Today will be better.

2/28 249.4 This weekend was incredibly hectic. Saturday was all meals on the road, and I wasn’t particularly thoughtful about what I ate, so I was not surprised to be up today. At any rate, all meals are planned and logged for today, and I’m making sure to get all my water.
3/1 249.6 I should have learned by now that I’m going to bounce around for a while after a few big drops. So we’re bouncing! Challenging catered lunch today at the office, but stuck with salad and chicken. And a couple of small squares of chocolate cheesecake found their way onto my plate and have been tracked. 😊
3/2 248.4 I guess this constitutes a whoosh. Hubby and I officially joined a fitness center and I went to work out last night for the first time. Walking and elliptical with no knee pain – such a relief! Plus upcoming consultations with their RD and personal training staff.
3/3 248.6 Back in the office today, which is quite a shift. It is nice to see people in person again though. Meals are neither planned nor logged, because I didn’t plan very well to be out of the house today (definitely out of the habit!). But I will do my best to make good choices.
3/4 249.4 Not surprising to be up today after yesterday's lack-of-planning carb fest. Today has been a real *kitten*show so far; my work computer died and our IT "support" isn't calling me back. There's a bag of peppermint patties calling my name in the pantry downstairs but so far I have managed to stay on target and avoid them. The way I feel today if I eat one, the rest of the bag will soon follow. @coblujay your painting is wonderful!!

Thanks everyone! I'm so happy and relieved the painting is finished. It has so many layers and so much meaning to me personally. I hope they raise a ton of money for pediatric cancer research and family support from this piece and all the other art that has been donated. I was in bed at 8:30 last night and asleep right away.7

Day/Weight/Comment
2/26: 141.5 - Had a fun dinner party at our house last night with some old work friends. Did get my workout in at the start of my day and was running around all day getting everything prepped. I decided to stop counting calories after I pre-logged and even the most minimal of servings of what I made put me over the goal. This next week I will have to work hard to get back down to where I ended the last round, just in time to travel and eat out the last few days of the round.
2/27: 141.3 - Although I’ve been exercising and getting a lot of move points on my Apple Watch, I’m disappointed in myself the last 2 nights of late night eating. Totally within my control, but need to stop it. What the two evenings have in common were that my eating patterns were out of the norm. Night 1 was the dinner party - fine to go over calories, but really no need to keep eating after the guests have left. Last night was a hockey game - ate dinner early and had a lot of calories left to meet goal. Guess what I did at 10pm? I recognize the issue, but don’t yet quite have my habit/strategy in place to combat it every time.
2/28: 140.2 - Yay! Back to where I ended the last round. Focused on my calories yesterday. Did my normal workout plus a 3.5 mile walk. Good sleep.
3/1: 140.4 - Interval workout and a short walk. Normal eating, a little high on carbs/fat. Slept well.

Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
2/26 363.6 – 6015 steps.
2/27 365.4 – 6881 steps. The bump up was expected. It happens and today is a new day. I enjoyed my splurge and back on track today.
2/28 366.2 – 6234 steps. The bump was expected again, and weekend is over. It was a great weather weekend too! I saw my Dad both days. He was in a better mood yesterday which is good. Today is a new day and Monday!
3/01 365.0 – 6319 steps. I finally got back on track yesterday and I did a Leslie Sansone DVD.
3/02 368.4 – 4283 steps. I ate out yesterday and had some very salty chips. I can’t say I was really satisfied with it either, so it was a wasted splurge indeed. I was WAY over my calories yesterday. I got to get it together today and the rest of this week!
3/03 368.4 – 6803 steps. Yesterday I got back on track again and on track today. I am going to bed early to go into the office tomorrow.
3/04 368.4 – 6062 steps. Yesterday was fine. It always takes me a few days to get back on track. At my office today by myself….yay!! Of course I have the munchies Not bad snacks but a calorie is a calorie.

Net change 2022 = SW 380.0 EW 373.0 (-14.6) Overall goal: 10-15 lbs.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.7 -

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. Get my spring vegetable seeds in the ground! Can’t believe we will be well and truly into March during this round.

Previous Posts2/26 Work 2/3. Broccoli edamame pea fried rice with seitan for dinner. Peotein: 136
2/27 work 3/3. I have an interview as for a nursing supervisor job at the hospital near me tomorrow.. hope that goes well! I don’t know if I have enough experience for the position but I’m glad they are giving me an interview. Doenjang chigae for dinner tonight. Protein: 141
2/28 First new low I’ve seen in a while. I interviewed for the supervisor position today and think it went well. The thought of going somewhere new and learning new people while also learning a leadership role is a bit scary, but I know I could handle it and it would be a step forward professionally. I knew I didn’t want to stay bedside for very long, so no point in dragging my feet. They still have another person to interview anyway. Lots of activity today. Push-up/pull across, squat clean workout this morning. Long walk in nice weather this afternoon. Leg day for strength. Hit another PR on squats.. 235 for sets of 4. Dal makhani for dinner. Protein: 159
3/1 Another low. I’ve been debating how much lower I want to go and how long I want to maintain before doing some bulking/cutting cycles. I’ll probably give it another 5-10 lbs. Did a rowing and deadlift workout this morning. Enjoyed the nice weather with my family this afternoon. Push day for strength.. more PR’s! Bench pressed 125 for sets of 2. I’m quite chuffed with how many lifting gains I’ve made while cutting this time. In the past when I’ve cut I’ve felt noticeably weaker even when under the direction of a fitness focused RD. I think it’s been helpful to faithfully follow a structured lifting program (previously I was doing CrossFit with a side of strength programming, versus now strength programming with a side of “CrossFit” style workouts). Plus I’ve been a lot more flexible on my calorie intake. I have a few months of data to work with and my Apple Watch TDEE seems bang on. So, today, I ate 2,100 calories, but that still gives me ~200 calorie deficit for the day. Previous cuts I would stick strictly to the 1600 goal (or whatever it was set at) regardless of my activity and feel hungry all the time. Anyway, I’m getting results and it feels really good. Protein: 153
3/2 Feeling like spring! The soil in my vegetable garden is still too wet, so I’m planning to get spring seeds in the ground on Saturday. Walked about 5 miles at the park. Pull day for strength today with lots of heavy rack pulls. Lentil salad with a tahini nutritional yeast dressing for dinner. Protein: 142

Work has been hard on my back recently.. we’ve had some very heavy patients and even being pretty strong and trying to use proper body mechanics I’ve managed to hurt my back a few times in the past couple of weeks. No rest for me though.. cause tomorrow is spring vegetable planting day! Dal with some broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots thrown in for extra veggies and seitan for dinner. Protein: 126

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

2/27 - 145.5
2/28 - 145.5 - My daughter and I spent a lovely day together yesterday. We went to a craft workshop, then she brought over her VR headset for my husband and I to try. We didn't focus on food at all and I was able to stay on track.
3/01 - 146 - I need to drink more water today.
3/02 - 145 - Slowly, slowly, the trend weight is going down.

My goal for 2022 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 (~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

For Lent I’m committed to walk 100 miles in March (usual target but I’ve not done it since October), 1 strength training class in person and 1-2 virtual classes per week, no alcohol, journal my food, water over diet cokes, and NO snickers at the grocery store! 6 weeks … I can do this!

Day/Weight/Comment
2/26 / 176 / This is a new low weight for me. I am 8 pounds away from the original goal I set to lose 125 pounds. At 168, I will be in my normal BMI range. It's funny because it's SO close after the distance I've travelled but mentally it sorta feels far yet. One day at a time, am I right? So thankful to be walking this journey with all of you.
2/27 / 175.8 / We had a great day yesterday. We drove up north with friends for dog grooming and brunch. My husband and I went to the movies at night. Got a good lower body strength day and walk fit in between the two events.
2/28 / 177.2 / Huge day of exercise today... first we snowshoed for 1.5 hours, then we did a nature walk of just over 40 minutes, and I finished the day with 60 minutes on the Peloton and a 5 minute stretch. The weather was so amazing!
3/1 / 176.4 / Busy day yesterday but I got in my 10K steps. I am starting to get the house ready for company as my dad is flying in later this week. Work is also busy and we went out at night to see one more of the Best Picture nominees for the Oscars.
3/2 / 176.2 / My brother arrived last night so we had dinner at my Mom's house. We each got take-out but my husband and I picked a different restaurant that fit into our needs a bit better. I also retested my FTP on the Peloton yesterday and I've made some great gains there. Feels awesome.
3/3 / 176.4 / Planned maintenance day today as I'm off to the Flames game with my husband for work and there will be less control on food and drink than normal. Got my Peloton ride done before work.
3/4 / 173.4 / Flames game was fun.. we had box seats for a corporate event so there was plenty of food and drink. Unfortunately they lost in OT! I haven't been to a hockey game in years. My Dad gets in for a 10 day stay today so the routine will be impacted for sure but I have a solid foundation of habits.
3/5 / 174 / First dinner out with the family upon my dad's arrival stuck to plan. There was temptation I did not give in to as it would have been mindless eating. Started today with a 60 minute live Peloton ride - my 150th ride!
