    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)

    **Comments apply to previous day**

    SW RND 187 120.0
    5/17 120.0 GKI 5.4 Today is our 52nd wedding anniversary. Our #2 DGD arrives tonight for 4 days.
    5/18 120.0 GKI 7.5 Mexican restaurant- chimichanga and chips 🤦‍♀️ DH didn’t feel well later and neighbor and I picked up DGD#2 at the airport. Community bingo tonight. No idea what they will have for dinner. Can’t believe I didn’t post this morning. I guess that’s what happens when you’re awake before 4am!
    5/19 120.0 GKI 19.4 Got 206% of my steps. Pizza at Bingo last night. Tonight I’m going to Area 15 with DD#2 and DGD#2 - List Spirits Distillery.
    5/20 120.0 GKI 14 Distillery was disappointing. If you’re a dark rum drinker you might like it. 🤮

    @deepwoodslady Donna, you need to share information with your friends and family that as a diabetic, carbs are NOT GOOD for you. Just sayin’! Love you my MFP friend!

    @quiltingjaine Interestingly enough, the friend who brought the dinner over is also diabetic (but hers is in much better control). Family and friends do know. They consider it "a treat". Truly, it is me and all the in-between time that is making things go south for me. When I am on my game at home (90% of the time) my weight and A1C is much better. I can tolerate the temporary flux's from travel and treats. It's all on me. I've got to get back in the game. I just got so tired of the low carb foods I began to gag on them. But low carb is what works for me best, it's what is recommended for diabetics, and it certainly is what my doctor wants to see me doing. I can't wait to get my kitchen back. It is more helpful when I can batch cook, or cook at all. I miss using my stove and have been living by microwave, crock pot etc. since March. Weeks and weeks to go! Thanks for the push though. Low carb is the answer for me, for sure.

    @deepwoodslady - Hi Donna, We all know what to do and what works. It is a matter of applying it consistently and that is the hard part. You will get there, just hang in there with the rest of us :) We can do this! The important thing is never giving up. I agree with you, at times we are just going to get tired for a minute or so but that is why I feel weighing daily helps us. It helps us us not to fall into a deep hole. Keep up the good work!! It is friends like you (@quiltingjaine, Terri, etc.) and other regulars on this thread that help encourage me to keep at it.

    Round 187 ( my 119th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

    Just want to stick with it !!
    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    5/17 136.4 – DS wedding day. Yesterday we travelled up to Sheffield to help with preparations particularly in their garden for the reception, tent & gazebo erected, bunting hung, afternoon tea stands constructed etc. Today we get their house early to help with last minute preps. & look after the little ones whilst the bride has her hair & make up done etc. And the sun is shining, the sky is blue. Report back later tomorrow.
    5/18 136.4 – Yesterday was a wonderful day, youngest DGD (11 months) led her DS (aged 3), bride & bride's DF down the aisle pushing her walker festooned with flowers – she stole the show!! Bride looked stunning & DS so handsome – he has lost 2 stone for this day!! The whole day went very smoothly and was laid back just as they wanted, everyone had a brilliant day. So lovely to have DIL finally officially “part of our family” even though she has been our 2nd DD for a decade or so. Today it was back to their house to help take tent & gazebo down & last tidying up after they had all left for their honeymoon (DGDs too) down to Cornwall, and then we travelled back home.
    5/19 137.8 – not surprised really as I enjoyed the day!! Child minding little DGS today.
    5/20 137.8 – 8.51 miles walked all pushing little DGS in his buggy. Food was not good though :(.
    5/21 137.2 – 4.19 miles recorded, yesterday I started a new seasonal job; exam invigilator at a local secondary school. I am disappointed that my Fitbit does not seem to seem to count the slow gentle quiet steps during the 2.5 hour exam!! Maybe next week I'll try strapping it to my ankle? Food was good all day until we had a delicious piece of wedding cake made by DIL, should have had a slither not a chunk !!!

    @musicsax OMG, the wedding has happened! Congratulations, it sounds like such a wonderful day. This morning, I was sorting out being ready for my nephew's wedding next weekend, and I remembered that you had your son's wedding coming around the same time. In my distraction, I missed it. So sorry. So glad everything was perfect and you had such a happy day!! <3

    Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

    5/17 - 181.4
    I did a bit better yesterday/last night, but definitely a work in progress. Off to teach a doggy obedience class, then home to work more in my garden. I spend three hours yesterday manually edging a bed, digging out heavy clay. Definitely weight training!

    5/18 - 181
    Stayed within calories yesterday, and got lots of “real life” exercise—3 hours of dog training & teaching an obedience class + two hours digging out more garden border and planting a few seedlings. It’s rainy today, but I got a bit of garden time between rains.

    5/19 - 181
    Went way over with cheese yesterday—wonderful sharp white cheddar. Oh, well. Back on track today.

    5/20 - 180.8
    Off to stock up on veggies for salads and soup, then back to the garden. I have a bunch of seedlings to get into the ground—zinnias, cosmos, nasturtiums, sunflowers, more. Will be colorful! Happy Friday, all!

    5/21 - 181
    Calories good, salt a bit high.

    The “boys”, AKA the cats, Harry and Han Solo, are going to get tracked once per round as well. Maybe this way I will not keep losing my data for them :)

    SW: 137.8
    Cats: Harry 10 lb 14.0 oz; Han Solo 11lb 11.5 oz

    5/17 – 137.8 Man, I am just struggling to get my act together. I am not sure I ever even managed to post during round 186. So at least, here is a post. I am going to try and post each day for this round, and honestly track. fingers crossed!!

    5/18 – 137.2 Yesterday, I made it through the day calorically. Tracked in full. Could not coordinate exercise, which I need to fix. Then, in the evening, new stressors hit. I should have used that as exercise impetus, but instead it meant I got into cheese and crackers that were not tracked. Shocked I went down. Today is looking good. Will try and keep “my eye in the prize”!

    5/19 – 136.6 Actually did a good day! Calories all on track, and somehow I closed all my apple rings without official exercise.

    5/20 – 135.6 Yay for me! Ok, still not formal exercise, but I avoided bad food choices for two days in a row. Last night was also “lazy night” ie subs for dinner. As a study, I disassembled the sub and weighed the total, then the bread, and estimated each of the components. (Yes, I reassembled before eating. :) ) I then tracked it and saved on MFP as a meal.

    5/21 – 135.6 Even with yesterday. I finally exercised again! Yes, it was only walking, but I have done nothing since leaving Florida three weeks ago. Got out again this morning before writing this check-in. I need to establish the habit again like I had a year ago. Tracking and food choices are good enough. I won’t weigh what I hoped to for nephew’s wedding, but that’s life. More importantly, I need to do my exercise and eat healthfully to get my health markers back on track. Last fall’s rapid, stress-induced weight gain combined with no exercise gave me some concerning numbers. Gotta focus on the long run!!

    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 187 120.0
    5/17 120.0 GKI 5.4 Today is our 52nd wedding anniversary. Our #2 DGD arrives tonight for 4 days.
    5/18 120.0 GKI 7.5 Mexican restaurant- chimichanga and chips 🤦‍♀️ DH didn’t feel well later and neighbor and I picked up DGD#2 at the airport. Community bingo tonight. No idea what they will have for dinner. Can’t believe I didn’t post this morning. I guess that’s what happens when you’re awake before 4am!
    5/19 120.0 GKI 19.4 Got 206% of my steps. Pizza at Bingo last night. Tonight I’m going to Area 15 with DD#2 and DGD#2 - Lost Spirits Distillery.
    5/20 120.0 GKI 14 Distillery was disappointing. If you’re a dark rum drinker you might like it. 🤮
    5/21 121.5 GKI 51.5 LOTS OF WINE! Great day with DGD#2 & DH and fun evening with DD#2 & DGD#2 doing a craft project at the winery.
