Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

Goals for this round:

Generally, regain some semblance of discipline….

I am switching up my logging method to rounding to the nearest whole pound. Too much daily anxiety over these fractions!

Major Goal this round is to log every morsel I eat and drink. No matter how ugly or outlandish it is. This will be interesting with a four day get-away planned with friends right in the middle of the round.

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

4/27 - 180
I splurged on snacks yesterday afternoon. Emotional eating, I guess. Anyway, I was deliberate enough to get something I really wanted, and I was reasonable the rest of the day. I think that got the urge out of my system. Off to run off my breakfast in agility class—maybe some of the snacks, too?

4/28 - 180.2
I behaved myself yesterday, so the + is from Tuesday’s pig out. 😁

4/29 - 180
Yesterday was higher calorie than I’d hoped, partly because DH made stuffed peppers with chorizo for dinner and they were a bit hefty, and partly cuz I came home hungry from dog training and had some ice cream. Oh, well. Today’s a new day, and I’ll get some garden exercise. A while back I ordered four roses, three of them climbers, and they’re scheduled to arrive today. Very exciting! Happy Friday, all!

4/30 - 180.8
Not unexpected, from Thursday’s higher calories. No problem. That said, I’m thinking of trying a session of not counting calories, just being mindful of what I’m eating and whether I’m really hungry. I know that often I see my total calories and think, oh, I have room for a few more, and those few quickly wind up doubled or tripled late in the day. I sometimes think part of my “stuckness” — for years, decades— is having an almost constant focus on food. We’ll see. Maybe I’ll make next round an experiment. Cant be worse than the non-results I’ve had for the past months (years?) since regaining 40 pounds. Why is this so hard?

5/01 - 180
🌹🌹🌹Welcome to the lusty month of May!🌹🌹🌹 I have four roses, a lilac, a peony, and a bunch of sweet pea seedling to plant, plus lots of garden tidying. Yay! And it’s soup day—I’m making a chorizo, spinach & sweet potato soup. Enjoy your day!

5/02 - 180
Yesterday was a good day, and I plan to repeat. Happy Monday!

5/03 - 180.2
Rainy day, which is perfect for the four roses I planted yesterday. 🌧 Off to Rory’s final scent work class of the session. Then we get a two-week break. Gardening! 😁 Have a lovely day, all!

5/04 - 180
Well, I decided that rather than kidding myself that I don’t know why I’m not losing, I should run some numbers. Calculated my average weekly calories the past 6 weeks and found it’s virtually identical with what the SailRabbit calculator says I need to maintain at 180. Guess what I’ve hovered around the past 6 week? Actually, the past 6 months! Big duh. So, once again, I know what I need to do. Now to do it. My main issue, still, is snacking at night. Why is that so hard to stop? I feel like a broken record! But at least I know to trust the numbers.

5/05 - 179.6
Not perfect yesterday, but better. I did have some popcorn last night, but total calories were within bounds. Aiming for better today.

5/06 - 179.6
Ok, my weigh in is -.8 from the end of the last round and average is the same, so not a complete catastrophe in spite of several very high-calorie days this round and an average well over my goal. Yesterday was a very good day, so I feel more in control. See you in the next round!

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.

SW RND 185 118.5 AW 119.3
4/27 118.5 GKI 10.3 Late dinner at Great Greek - OMAD at 6PM - not my preferred time.
4/28 118.5 GKI 17.8 Two fun size Twix at meeting yesterday afternoon. 🤦‍♀️ Those haven’t affected my weight (yet?) but that up-shoot in my GKI isn’t good my other eating for the day was almost no carbs - meat, cheese, green beans, salad. I guess that’s why it’s so important for diabetics (which I’m not) and pre-diabetics to carefully watch what they eat. Just trying to stay healthy here.
4/29 119.5 GKI 18.8 Not happy about those numbers but attended first Social and Dance Club play/dinner so lots of carbs. I shall overcome. The play was really great. Over 100 people in the social hall which I believe was at its limit.
4/30 120.5 GKI 12.1 Weight up as expected. Uncertain eating today. Going to quilt shops with the ladies and stock car races with DH this evening.
5/1 120.0 GKI 12.3 Brunch Burger minus bun for lunch at 2, (burger, cheddar, ham, bacon, egg) did eat a few fries. Nothing after 2. Light on water.
5/2 120.5 GKI 12.7 Great Greek salad with steak. 1/4 pita, 1/2 Granny Smith apple with 2T natural peanut butter(!!!!)
5/3 120.0 GKI 6.2 26 hour fast followed by OMAD - steak, tomato, mayo and wine
5/4 118.5 GKI 6.4 El Pollo Loco thigh, leg, broccoli and Loco salad with cilantro dressing. I DID enjoy an adult beverage in the evening-made with SF lemonade
5/5 118.5 GKI 3.5 Awake insanely early. Only 2 total carbs yesterday.
5/6 118.5 GKI 6.0 Golden Corral yesterday for OMAD Didn’t go crazy and overeat but had some higher carb foods

RGW: < 135.0 pounds
UGW: 130-135 pound range

Day/Weight/Comment
4/27: 134.9 - I find myself eating back all my exercise calories lately and the scale is holding steady. I’d like to go down a couple more pounds to be more in the middle of maintenance range. I know what needs to be done, but I think it is going to be tough this round since my family is visiting us for a week.
4/28: 133.6 - Ate all of my calories, workout was later in the afternoon and so-so sleep.
4/29: 134.9 - Drinks and dinner with extended family and friends. Definitely ate beyond full…
4/30: 135.6 - Yikes! Good workouts yesterday, but sitting around with friends with lots of nibbles, pizzas, cookies, champagne, etc wasn’t good for the calorie budget.
5/1: 135.6 - I somehow skipped a day, but this was the night after a very large and salty tapas dinner.
5/2: 136.0 - Biked across the Golden Gate Bridge, lots of walking around SF, but dinner and dessert was very high calorie. Vacation over though and now can settle back into a somewhat normal routine.
5/3: 135.4 - Had a nice regular day with my regular workouts, eating and sleep. Hoping to get back into my maintenance range before heading out backpacking on Friday.
5/4: 134.3 - Yay! Back to maintenance range. Normal workouts and eating within calorie range, but at the higher end (eating back all exercise calories). I still have my calorie goals set to lose 1/2 pound per week so that I can comfortably settle in mid-way through my maintenance range.
5/5: 134.3 - Normal workouts although a little sedentary around the house. Normal eating but a little short on sleep since I stayed up way too late reading.
5/6: 135.4 - Well, not the best way to end the round. Cinco de Mayo did me in even though I was juuuuuuust under calorie.

Total round weight loss/gain to date from EO last round: + 0.5 pounds

4/27 ~ 179.4 - 14,700 and 80. Oh
4/28 ~ 180.0 - 17,300 and 116. I'm happy with this, ate a bit more yesterday as I've been dropping too fast of a rate. Feeling good though. Will get my walks in and plan on Turkey soup for dinner. Went to buy chicken thighs last night and they had turkey thighs at less then half the price!! Prices are crazy here and are changing all the time.
4/29 ~ 180.2 - 16,100 and 111. No worries I'm good with this, eating well and active. I may have to work Saturday or Sunday but will see if I can pull off a miracle today. Happy Friday!!
4/30 ~ 180.2 - 22,000 and 175. Pizza Day at work, just had one slice and my salad. Scale number is good. Got all my work done so I don’t need to go into work this weekend. Now just need to get outside in this horrible rain and get my walk in…. But first another cup of coffee. Have a great weekend !!
5/1 ~ 179.3 - 21,400 and 137. It’s finally May! 🌸 Forecast is still dreary but last year it was hot and dry and lots of forest fires so … I guess the rain is good ¿. Did a 10k early walk then some shopping and the sun poked out for the last few hours, felt marvelous! Another good walk today then meal prep my lunched for the next few days. I might think up some new goals for May.
5/2 ~ 179.4 - 21,600 and 144. Got a 13k walk in early, then a day of clean up, laundry and clean out the fridge. Got my lunches done and I'm ready for the week. May goals hit 1400 calories. Relax with a cup of tea (decaf) before bed and on weekdays do 2 walks a day lunch and after work.
5/3 ~ 179.4 - 18,400 and 131. Horrible sleep. Hit calories, tea and walks
5/4 ~ 179.3 - 18,900 and 132. Hit calories, tea and walks plus slept better. Still have tired eyes maybe it's all this rain.
5/5 ~ 179.0 - 18,800 and 128. I think the herbal tea before bed is helping with my sleep. Walks good and close on calories.

5/6 ~ 179.0 - 18,400 and 118. Gosh my sleep is all over the place last night I was wide awake and woke up so many times and then early for good. My evening walk was very wet, I cannot believe the rain we are having and the forecast just says rain rain rain for days!! I need some sun soon. ... Hope to see everyone for the next 10!! Just 10 days, 1 day at a time!!

Hi, I’m Kathy.
57, F, 5’8”
11th 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
RSW: 237.6
UGW for now: 195, then reevaluate

Goal for this round: less than I started with
2022 goals: move more (okay, move some), eat mindfully

Day/Weight/Comment
4/27 237.2 Lots of stress right now so I’m glad to be down. Some major stuff going on at work, and a good friend is having a very hard time. Doing the best I can and controlling the things I can control – mainly, planning and logging, and drinking water.
4/28 237.4 Work got CRAZY yesterday, but I made it through until the very end of the day. Son had given me a small solid chocolate bunny for Easter. I quartered it into reasonable serving sizes and squirreled them away, but yesterday I was so burnt out I pulled one out. But I kept it to one and it was within my calories. And it was so good. Meals are planned and logged for today, and hopefully work will be better.
4/29 237.2 traveled to husband’s college reunion
4/30 DNW – travel
5/1 DNW – travel
5/2 239.8 Home finally from husband’s college reunion. I knew I’d be up but I didn’t expect it to be this much. I know this is just traveling, lack of water, alcohol and eating out, so it should drop over the course of this week. Pounding water today and back to the gym. Still catching up on posts.
5/3 239.2 Got disturbing news just before bed last night so I didn’t sleep at all well. Plus allergies are really kicking my butt right now. Worked out yesterday and ate well, but I’m at the office today and didn’t have time/energy to bring lunch or even think about dinner. Must rally before tomorrow, when I’m helping move son out of his college dorm and home for the summer.
5/4 DNW Long day moving Kid out of dorm and back home. Got plenty of movement in, though!
5/5 238.8 Looks like this round will be up overall, but it’s been a rough time for a variety of reasons. I’ll be back on it for the next round. Got to focus on the long game.
5/6 236.6 Didn’t expect to see that this morning. Head cold/allergies/whatever are giving me a hard time so I’m hoping to get some rest this weekend. Happy Friday, everyone, and I’ll see you in the next round!

GW: 140?

R184: 225.0-223.0 (-2.0)
R185: 223.0-222.4 (-0.6)

4/27: 224.0 (+1.0) - honestly no idea. Burned a ton of calories on the beach, drank 153oz of water, ate super clean and low sodium.
4/28: 224.2 (+.2) - again, no Idea. Met all my goals, 144oz of water, ate clean, exercised, etc.
4/29: 224.4 (+.2) - ugh. Starting to get frustrated. I guess now I am just hoping to end this round back at where I started (223.) Met all my goals yesterday, plus a 2.5hr nap.
4/30: 224.4 (+/-0) - thank goodness it didn’t go up again! Met all my goals. Ended up getting an Ahi salad at dinner. I did have 1 glass of wine (my first adult beverage in over a month!)
5/1: 225 (+.6) - SMH. Despite the drive, met all my goals, including water. Really frustrating. If this continues for another week, I am going to go get my thyroid levels checked again

5/2: 224 (-1.0) - met all my goals. Glad to see it down today.
5/3: 224 (-0.0) - met all my goals. Super clean eating, 153oz of water.
5/4: 223.4 (-.6) - met all my goals, stayed within calories, 104oz water, but I felt extra snacky yesterday and indulged in some salty pretzels and a cookie (usually I am not a snacker at all! I blame my thyroid, wine, and cheese for my weight, in equal parts

.)
5/5: 222.8 (-.6) - Hooray! Again, back to BMI obese class I and out of class II (never to be seen again, please!!!) Met my goals, slept awful. My low for round 184 was 222.2 - would feel so amazing to hit that again tomorrow, before this round ends.
5/6: 222.4 (-.4) - So glad to be ending this round a bit lower than where I started. I have a friend’s birthday party tonight at a karaoke bar, and I do plan to have a couple beverages. Will be high tomorrow, but I’ve budgeted this in all week and hope the water weight will come off quick by Sunday. See ya next round!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/26 …..202.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/27 …..204.4 ….. (Trend weight 201.9) Travel yesterday with no shopping/walking. Very little natural calorie burn and Golden Corral for dinner. Yep, that’ll do it! Gotta really watch my P’s and Q’s today!

04/28 …..204.2 ….. Trend weight 202.1) A small drop even though dinner was out with my son, his friend and friend’s mother. A nice simple meal that didn’t go over the top.

04/29 …..202.4 ….. (Trend weight 202.2) We are in the midst of the sanding of the kitchen and dining room renovation. Sand everywhere! There has been a lot more of carry-out dinners and local restaurant meals but I’ve been keeping the choices reasonable. To me, in this very small town, the local restaurant food is tiresome after 24 years here. It’s much easier to not over-indulge than when I go to bigger cities that have so many delicious and hard-to-resist choices. I love trying new things and that often gets me in trouble! Anyway, glad to see a nice drop today even after dinner carry-out (Mexican). I’m going to try to get more movement today but I dunno…. We’ll see how the schedule goes. My birthday is May 10th. I would like to solidly be back under 200 lbs as a giant present to myself.

04/30 …..203.2 ….. (Trend weight 202.3) Very long travel today across the state. I won’t be home until late tonight. Low level movement and meals out = oh no!

05/01 …..204.6 ….. (Trend weight 202.5) April was not good to me. Or maybe, I was not good to April. Yeah, I think that’s it.

05/02 …..204.6 ….. (Trend weight 202.7) I should have done better but I couldn’t get satiated yesterday. I think my bigger body is fighting for more food so I am going to have to plan more volume with less calories and carbs to get through this. According to Fitbit, I’ve had more sleep last night but I feel hungover. Is there such a thing as a food hangover?

05/03 …..203.8 ….. (Trend weight 202.8) I’m grateful for any progress but I know I can do better. I am not doing Keto at this time but I definitely should be watching the carbs a bit more. I need to better keep them in mind when making my choices. That would make a huge difference for my weight and my glucose levels. Now just doing it…….

05/04 …..203.8 ….. (Trend weight 202.9) I had a good day of eating yesterday so I expected a drop. I checked my fitbit stats this morning and boy, oh, boy! Was my movement level ever low! Barely over 3000 steps for the day due to lots on online bill paying and many phone calls. That explains it! Out of town tomorrow, a bit of a trip again for my friend's brain scan to determine possible parkinsons. Lots more sitting and meals out. Never good when it's out of town.

05/05 …..203.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0) Weigh in was about 5 hours early as I prepare for travel this morning. 3 days in a row with the same weight. Hmmm. Too bad my trend weight wouldn’t stay the same. It just keeps going up, up, up.

05/06 …..203.4 ….. (Trend weight 203.0) A shocking drop today when I thought it would be way up. I ate at a Golden Corral yesterday during the long travel which means a lot of food for me due to variety. The medical test took 7 hours so lots of sitting in the hospital waiting for friend. The drive was several hours each way. Needless to say, all sitting and little activity. But I was so exhausted last night that I actually slept about 7 hours (instead of my usual 4). And then this weight drop. It HAS to be related. Everything else lent itself to a gain. Wow! I wish I required more sleep EVERY day! Another observation: this drop came after 3 days of staying exactly the same, which, in itself is unusual. Paying attention here! I am still up for the round-disappointing!

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day/Weight/Comment
4/27 - 210.8 - Hoping this challenge will help me get back into my routine of weighing daily and thinking about what I'm eating and why

4/28 - 209.6 - Drank lots of water yesterday and stuck to my calorie budget. Having sugar free jello snacks saved my budget when my sweet tooth hit after dinner.

4/29 - 208.8 - Tough night sleeping last night and got the snack attack feeling. Was able to reject the call to bury my face in a bowl of froot loops but it was a close LOL

4/30 - on vacation and forgot my scale 🥺 will try to keep track of calories anyway

5/1- on vacation and forgot my scale 🥺 will try to keep track of calories anyway

5/2 - 206.6 - Got food poisoning Saturday from salad (go figure) so this number makes sense after a day of just water and saltine crackers yesterday. Pretty sure it will bounce back up again.

5/3 - 206.6 - Still recovering 🤢 but staying hydrated and I'm able to eat bread now so that's good.

5/4 - 208 - Aaaaaaaand there it is! Back on proper solid foods and definitely happy to be back in the land of the living. Went for a short run with a friend yesterday and that felt AWESOME after having been on a hiatus for a month. Still on track to meet my goal for this round.

5/5 - 206.6 - Went running again this morning 🌅 Felt great Trying to get back into my good habits including going to bed on time and waking up early. Will keep drinking my water today.

5/6 - 206.6 - Feeling good about this number! Chipping away till I return to one-derland 😊. Lost 3.4 lbs for the round and beat my goal. Looking forward to the next one!!

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Round # 50 for me!
SW: 370.0 (6000 step goal, goal to lose 2 to 3 lbs. each challenge, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out more than once every 10-day challenge)
Day/Weight/Comment
4/27 370.0
4/28 369.0 – Yesterday I got in my steps because I went into the office and went to a religious service, so I was moving a lot. I did not log food, but I was mindful of what I was eating.
4/29 369.0
4/30 369.0 – Went into the office yesterday. Not my normal day. I had the munchies but still was within my calories because I ate back too many calories. Tomorrow going to a Vietnamese/Thai/French restaurant. I already told my friend who likes to order a bunch of appetizers I am not ordering any. I know how she is, and it will be 3 of us so this will keep me from having any of theirs. I will not look at menu at the restaurant. I will already have decided what I am eating and order without a menu and order first. I will have a fruit before going in and have some hard candy so I am not tempted when they offer me some of the appetizers. Today going to eat on plan. Goal not to gain this weekend. Get in a good workout today and maybe tomorrow.
5/01 369.0
5/02 367.8 – We had a wonderful time yesterday at restaurant yesterday. I had spicy rice noodles with chicken and shrimp, 2 small spring rolls, and the 3 of us shared a chocolate Godiva dessert that was so delicious. Back to business today. I may gain tomorrow, time will tell. I did not work out over the weekend, but I did eat ok. Very light breakfast yesterday so I could eat mindfully at dinner.
5/03 367.8 – Went into the office yesterday and got my steps in. wore new compression socks all day. I must discipline myself to wear them. It was an ok day. I did not drink enough water, but happy I maintained my loss from weekend.
5/04 366.0 – At the office today so I will get in my steps. At home yesterday and missed my steps because I did not do a workout.
5/05 366.0 – I can’t believe how fast these 10-day challenges go! It is crazy. It seems like it just started. I have not been perfect, but I am back on track. I have been eating out too much but making decent low-calorie selections.
5/06 366.0 – I am pleased with loss this challenge. Ready for next 10 days. See everyone next round!
Total lost this round: (-4.0) (Goal this round: to get back on track)

*One of my major goals is to get my BMI under 40 (260 weight) so I can have surgery on my knees*

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.

In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.

In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs

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!"

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.

Well, hit my goal for the round, guess I'm done! 😆 My bet is I'm a little dehydrated. Wine with a friend last night. Much needed night of relaxing and talking.
04/28: 185.8 lbs (+3.0)
Looks like yesterday was dehydration. Getting tired of seeing no results.
04/29: 184.4 lbs (-1.4)
Back to where I started. Decided I need to stop focusing on the day to day or even trend over a few days. It's just too wild right now.
05/30: 185.8 lbs (+1.4)
Walk this morning, about to go to the gym for elliptical, weights and bike. Yard work later. Active day so hopefully this will go back down tomorrow.

Sore today from gym. Muscles are starting to pop a bit!

I don't know what to say. Has to be water or hormones.
