5/12: 121.4 Pleasantly content with this number, especially with it being 4ish days pre-TOM. Life has been busy the past week or so and I just needed a break from everything including posting. I’ve been able to exercise each day this week but still taking it easy. I was able to do my strength workouts on Monday and Wednesday. Tuesday I went for a short walk in the morning because I slept terrible and this morning I went for a 3 mile very slow run outside. I noticed my heart rate tends to jump up quickly, so I’m trying not to stress it too much post covid. I know it’s probably because I haven’t done a ton cardio for a few weeks but I’m just going to build it back slowly. The run felt good, and I wasn’t too tired afterwards either. It was so nice to be exercising outside and not freezing because the warmer temps are finally starting to show up again in New England.

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.

Let’s do this! I had a nice vacation at the end of April that acted as a kind of reset really. Now I’m ready to dive back in and make my way to goal.

Goals this challenge- 11,000 steps/day; Pelo 2-3x week; strength training 2-3x week.

SW: 188.8

5/7- 188.2
5/8- 185.6
5/9- 182.6
5/10- 181.6 Pre Disney weight! Been battling COVID since last week though- the entire house has it right now, while DH is out of town on business- he is no longer positive, lucky! Kids can’t go back to school until they test negative. I’m already exhausted, and it’s only Tuesday.
5/11- 180.4
5/12- 181.6 Not sure why. I had a great day yesterday. Meh, oh well.
5/13- 183.0 I’m chalking it up to an insanely busy day yesterday. I’ve noticed that when I get way more steps in than my average of 11,000, it always makes the scale go up. Why? Idk, but it’s a pretty consistent pattern. Yesterday I logged over 14,000 steps.

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.

Finally, a sunny day! I have lots of garden work to do — yay! I love to be out with the green things. Happy Saturday.

05/08 - 179.8
Another gorgeous day—back to the garden. I got lots done yesterday, but have plenty more to do.

05/09 - 179.6
Monday, Monday…Another beautiful, warm spring day in the offing. So nice to be outside without bundling up! Lots more garden work to do—so much more rewarding then housework! 😁 I made Sea Scallop Bisque for dinner last night—yum! We’ll have the rest tonight. It was my 19th different Sunday soup so far this year. What a fun project this has been, and only one reject in the bunch so far. Most have been delish.

05/10 - 181.2
Wth? I did go a bit over calories, but not that much! Oh, well. It will drop off.

05/11 - 180.6
Crazy bump, but at least it’s going back down.

05/12 - 179.8
Going out to dig some holes. That’s my strength training these days! Be well, friends!

05/13 - 179.6
Ok, I’m not losing as I’d like, but I am down 10 pounds from this time last year, so that’s not nothing. I just need to stop the night-time, tv eating. Don’t know why that’s so hard. Working on it.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/06 …..203.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
05/07 …..201.0 ….. (Trend weight 202.8) Yay, trend weight down from 203.0 and 2.4 lbs down on the scale. I felt pretty week yesterday. I think sugar was up from stress. Having trouble with my primary handyman (the slow one) so I’m going to have to replace him. Only 3200 steps yesterday but, of course, my appetite never suffers. I found myself eating a little more healthy when my daughter brought home a rotissary chicken and bread cut into teeny tiny little slices. A much small quantity than usual. Pay attention Donna! Remember, you can’t outrun the fork! Less food works! Anyhoo, good luck everyone this round. Let’s get ready for many sunny days ahead!

05/08 …..201.0 ….. Trend weight 202.7) Happy Mother’s Day everyone! Weight stayed the same which is okay after a big drop yesterday. Trend weight still trending down so I’m very happy. It gives me hope. I hope you all will enjoy a beautiful day. I will be taken out for dinner but will try to choose wisely. Ah, so many flowers delivered to me by our new florist in the next town. What thoughtful kids I have!

05/09 …..200.8 ….. (Trend weight 202.5) I just couldn’t get full last night! Luckily I had a good day full of mindful choices which ended up offsetting it. Down 0.2 is better than the gain I expected. I’ll be watching the scale, sometimes it creeps up later!

05/10 …..203.2 ….. (Trend weight 202.5) My birthday! Not a very nice present on the scale this morning. Pretty good dietary choices yesterday which kept it under 1600 (my normal is under 1400). Moderate exercise. I had a big bump down, now a big jump right back up. I don’t always understand how this works for me but I do know that TMI is likely part of this equation today. Dinner out tonight with a friend and at a later time with my oldest daughter (maybe next week?)

05/11 …..204.0 ….. (Trend weight 202.7) I thought my dinner out yesterday was very reasonable. Very light breakfast and applesauce for snack. Hmph! Maybe birthday and mother’s day all coming at me at once on the scale. Tonight, another dinner for birthday. Home cooked meal with steak, potato etc. at one of my children’s houses. I’ll keep my day light again. Maybe get out more and MOVE in the yard.

05/12 …..204.6 ….. (Trend weight 202.9) Birthday dinner yesterday was delicious and healthy. Long travel today so leaving early. No TMI x2.

05/13 …..202.6 ….. (Trend weight 202.8) 2 pounds down overnight after an extremely long travel, restricted movement, low steps and two meals in restaurants. I’m surprised, but not completely. Finally TMI this morning and over 7 hours of sleep last night! Amazing what those things can do to make a difference!

05/14 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

05/15 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

05/16 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

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

5/12: 121.4 Pleasantly content with this number, especially with it being 4ish days pre-TOM. Life has been busy the past week or so and I just needed a break from everything including posting. I’ve been able to exercise each day this week but still taking it easy. I was able to do my strength workouts on Monday and Wednesday. Tuesday I went for a short walk in the morning because I slept terrible and this morning I went for a 3 mile very slow run outside. I noticed my heart rate tends to jump up quickly, so I’m trying not to stress it too much post covid. I know it’s probably because I haven’t done a ton cardio for a few weeks but I’m just going to build it back slowly. The run felt good, and I wasn’t too tired afterwards either. It was so nice to be exercising outside and not freezing because the warmer temps are finally starting to show up again in New England.

5/13: 121.2 Lifted this morning and went up on a couple of the lifts, so that was exciting. Feeling great today after a pretty good night of sleep and looking forward to surprising my cousin at the hair salon when she is getting her hair done for her prom tonight. Then after work today I’m meeting coworkers for early dinner/drinks and I can’t wait!

Thank you for the challenge and for the support.

Day/Weight/Steps/Active Minutes/Comment
05/06 ~ 179.0

05/07 - 177.5 - 18;000 steps and 124 minutes. Well that’s a drop. Todays plan get a good walk in. Wrap Moms gift in pretty paper that I need to find. Wrap SOs birthday gift. Get some meal planning started and some housework. Housework will probably get pushed. Hope you all achieve your goals today… We got this!
05/08 - 177.3 - 15,300 and 66. Got steps and minutes in but did’t actually go on a ‘walk’. Did get some housework done FINALLY! Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms and a special thought to those who we have lost ❤️. My 2 boys are going on a hike with me today. Looking forwards to that ♥️
05/09 - 177.6 - 13,100 and 97 AND 60 flights of stairs!! Hiked one of the local mountains with my 2 boys, was a wonderful day and I did it with ease. So enjoyed my day! Now calories in was a little higher then usual with a few glasses of wine and an appy lunch then randomly invited to the youngest girlfriends parents house for dinner and dessert. Didn't log as I have no idea what to post! So very happy with the scale this morning! Sadly SO called to say he's not coming home as scheduled hopefully when he does he can stay a little longer then usual.
05/10 - 177.8 - 17,800 and 124. Everything is on target and going well.
05/11 - 176.6 - 17,800 and 130. Miss calculated a butter tart and probably under ate, as I am really hungry this morning! My youngest is going to Nicaragua on Friday and I'm starting to feel anxious, but I am aware that anxiety is a trigger for me so...? Here is to the next 12 days!!
05/12 - 176.3 - 19,700 and 134. Forgot my protein this morning, and I ate my desk emergency tuna yesterday because I was super hungry ... it's going to be a long day!! I should be able to walk over to the store and find something if I'm not too busy.

05/13 - 176.7 - 20,500 and 133. SO is on his way home, yay! Eating plan might be a bit off but I will try to at least maintain and after he rests up will push for him to walk/hike with me. Add on my son going to Nicaragua this will be an interesting week or so. Happy Friday all.

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 almost 5 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

SW RND 186 118.5
5/7 118.0 GKI 4.4
5/8 119.0 GKI 14.0 Two nights of great sleep. OMAD yesterday was a keto chicken popper casserole. Then Bloody Maria = tomato juice = carbs and popcorn! AND NO TMI x2 Drinking Miralax
5/9 119.5 GKI 7.0 Mother’s Day at Great Greek with DD#2 and family. She and I split a bottle of Chardonnay and had large Greek salads. Waiting for TMI 😁
5/10 118.0 GKI 13.0 OMAD was chicken popper casserole from Saturday, ate 1 portion of Quest protein chips as snack. Popper casserole recipe needs to be studied since it seems it has shot my GKI up both times I ate it. Going to a baseball game tonight.
5/11 118.5 GKI 12.7 Apparently even Mama Lola’s 1 carb yellow corn tortillas cause a reaction. OMAD 3 tacos at 2:30, noting at the ball game and walked more than double the usual steps. Ballgame was pathetic. My granddaughters could have played better.
5/12 120.5 GKI 12.9 Celebration of life last evening at her favorite area steakhouse. Apps were not low carb.
5/13 120.5 GKI 12.9 A beautiful coyote walked through the back yard this morning. That hasn’t happened since????
