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!

starting a little late: weighing every day will be difficult, i usually only weigh in on sunday. i've been bouncing back and forth with my weight, a tiny gain, a tiny loss. think i will add a little exercise to the dieting plan.

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE👍👍

64 yr young F, 5ft 4
Round 188 ( my 120th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

Need to crack down, some of my clothes are beginning to feel a little uncomfortable, like to lose a couple of pounds this round, but any is a loss !!

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.

SW: 138.4
Day/Weight/Comment
5/27 138.4 – no structured exercise, childminding 3 little DGC, all 3 or under. Stayed overnight at DS to childmind again tomorrow, but jut the 1 year old this time.
5/28 138.2 – 9.33 miles walked yesterday, including a good half a mile or so of very very steep hill – that was hard work!! Two hours last night of latin & ballroom dancing, a good practice session!! At last managing to catch up with logging and others posts.

5/29 139.2 – not surprised, an Indian meal out with DFs, high in sodium not doubt, I expected it could have been higher! 8.7 miles walked, calories over; all exercise calories eaten back. Trying a new strategy; eating more calorific filling meals and avoiding ALL snacks in between.
5/30 138.2 - Our youngest DGD 1st birthday yesterday and there was a family bbq to celebrate followed by birthday cake and prosecco; tried to keep within calories as best I could and no more eating after 2.00pm. No structured walking as it is a 2 hour travel each way.

5/27 172.2, but headed to the campground with Dad (91 yo) and granddaughter (2 yo), so… we shall see! Lol. I know I’ll get my steps in, though! I do have a healthy dinner already made and packed for tonight. Will try to do portion control on the comforting camping food tomorrow and Sunday with lots of water and some healthy options mixed in. These days are precious and won’t last long, though, so I have that to balance as well. It’s ok either way.
5/28 no scale

5/27: 131.6 - New low weight for me and marks 40 pounds down from where I started on September 7, 2021. Normal workouts (Jazzercise and a walk) and normal eating (mostly leftovers) and pretty good sleep.
5/28: 132.3 - Between eating breakfast (which I normally skip) and some nibbles with a friend when he stopped by in the afternoon, I ate every single calorie I allotted for the day including my exercise calories. Still struggling to get my recommended amount of protein.
5/29: 133.4 - Carbs! Carbs! Carbs! Pretty much what I ate all day.
5/30: 133.2 - Ate better, but still carb and fat heavy. It really is a pain (at least to me) to balance macros.

05/29 …..204.2 ….. (Trend weight 203.5) A very slow day yesterday with not enough movement. No TMI today. So I’m surprised to see a drop. However, I got about 3 hours of extra sleep last night after dosing off early. My fitbit shows it was quality sleep too! Wow, I feel so refreshed! A friend from downstate that moved away stopped in to visit yesterday and is trying to do a few things to further my kitchen along. He doesn’t live here so it won’t be a completed project but anything helps! It’s a start! He was back this morning to help. He is my old handyman so I know is good work ethic. He can use the money and I can use the help so this is great. I’m hoping he can make some trips up and get me out of this jam in the coming weeks. We shall see. Feeling full of joy today!

My older sister, who traveled with me, is in town until tomorrow. Sunday is my day to start returning to my routine. There’s a lot on the calendar coming up and I need to stay focused as I prep for two big art shows. I had professional photos taken of me in my art studio several years ago. As I look at them now, I’m not that same person, so one of my rewards for working so hard over the last year is to have my photos redone. I’m a year in on this journey and thrilled to have accomplished so much. It’s time to recommit to the next phase and work my way towards maintenance. 5/28: 193.6 (+.2) Game on!!
5/29: 193.8 (+.4)
5/30 194.2 (+.8) Struggling a bit. I still have extra food in the house from when my sister visited. If it’s in the house, I eat it. I think I’m also more hungry because of everything I ate on vacation. I need to prep my meals in advance and get back on my exercise schedule. I’ll be swimming tomorrow. My indoor pool is closing effective next week because they can’t hire enough lifeguards and will be reassigning them to the outdoor pools for summer. It’s frustrating, but I’m determined to get back to it. Just a bit worried about swimming in the sun for two hours a week. Any suggestions on good sunscreen for use in a pool?

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

5/27 - 180.6
Calories were great until late…. Maybe I should go to bed earlier!

5/28 - 180.2

5/29 - 180.6
I did a lot of mulching and digging yesterday. I’m not sure I’ll ever catch up with the weeds—terrible this year! I’m almost but not quite tempted to use an herbicide. But no, I’ll keep attacking. I bought a new tool that’s good at getting under roots of pests like creeping Charlie. So off I go for some more weed wrangling! Good exercise, and for a purpose. Enjoy your Sunday!

5/30 - 180.6
Yesterday was soup day, my 22nd different soup this year. I made chicken fajita soup. Simple, quick, tasty, low-calorie—can’t beat that! Leftovers today.

My husband swims every other day and we only have outdoor pools around here. Based on a recommendation from a dermatologist friend (also a swimmer), he now wears a rash guard which at least deals with his back and arms. Sunscreen for the rest of him.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/27 / 163 / At the airport for our flight to Vancouver for a weekend getaway. Won't be able to weigh in again until Monday but I'll be here to check in.
5/28 / DNW / Great first day in Vancouver yesterday with us getting almost 30,000 steps. Ate a lot more food than usual. Had some stomach issues that weren't fun but I managed through them. Looking forward to another fun day tomorrow.
5/29 / DNW / Did the Grouse Grind hike which is short but steep - they call it nature's stairmaster for a reason. Finished in 1 hr 20 mins which is ahead of the average and I feel good today. Good to see all that exercise is paying off. We had an amazing seafood brunch too. Iconic trip! Off to Cirque du Soleil today before we head to thr airport. Back on the scale tomorrow.
5/30 / 170.4 / Got off the plane less than 10 hours ago and feeling puffy for sure! Back to work and regular life today after an amazing trip.

@ashleycarole86 Algeria was the first Cirque I saw and I was hooked! Discovered they were on BRAVO TV when visiting my brother. I so enjoyed them although they ARE better in person!! We have several here in Las Vegas. Most recently saw Zumanity with DGD#2 several years ago. I got pulled out of the audience to go on stage. SO EMBARRASSED!!!

Day/Weight/Steps/Active Minutes/Comment

05/27 - 174.2 - 17,300 steps and 111 active minutes. Another push myself for my after work walk. Pretty sure it’s all the rain happening. Have the day off with no real plans. Happy Friday all.
05/28 - 173.3* - 16,000 / 61. A day of shopping and some new clothes and maybe a purse. Then went home and tried on every pair of my pants in my closet. Tossed the ugly, hate these, and too bigs (donated), kept a couple of the too bigs but really nice, spent some $’s on. (I know you’re suppose to get rid of those too, but in time…) Have about 6 that are still too small and lots that I’m fitting back into nicely. Need to do this with the rest of my closet too. No structured walks but lots of steps lower activity but that’s ok. Going to a kids football game in the rain hope I good structured walk happens. Scale number is the result of a whoosh …TMI
05/29 - 172.2* - 16,000 / 90. Watching 7- 8 year olds play football is amazingly great! Spent the day with my Mom out for lunch and split a beer. Went for a short no push walk when I got home. Great day! Happy Sunday.

05/30 - 173.9 - 15,500 / 50. Went for Chinese against my will. Not as active of a day but I was busy. Ate more then I wanted to BUT ate less then I use to. Not worried I know this number will drop soon.

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)

5/27 119.0 GKI 13 Ate 6 prunes last night to “keep things moving”😁
5/28 118.0 GKI 9.8 Good day yesterday
5/29 119.0 GKI 9.8 We went to Carlito’s, I had the stuffed 1/2 sopapilla with a sopapilla and honey for dessert. Hadn’t been there in ages and it tasted so good! Way to many carbs may explain my head busting headache this morning. SUGAR HANGOVER IS REAL!
5/30 119.0 GKI 9.9 Memorial Day community events today. Flag raising and remembering those who have been lost. Picnic in the afternoon with not great food choices. Great Greek yesterday. Memorial Day picnic this afternoon-mostly not low carb foods. Not going to sweat it.

🇺🇸Have a blessed Memorial Day and remember those who have served and their families who have made the supreme sacrifice.🇺🇸

5/27 - 129.4 (highest in a year!🙁). Eldercare stress. But trying to get back in the game - having gained about 15 in 6 months!
5/28 129.6. Dagnabbit! My dad asked for ice cream
around 11pm last night. I caved - not much - but enough for this to turn into a slight gain than loss. Back at it.
5/29 128.4. Now that’s more like it! 10k plus steps yesterday. Less snacking. Goal for
Today is to move and more water!!
5/30 - 127.8. Feeling good. Didn’t drink as much water but starting to recognize hunger vs appetite. Starting to eat when hungry not bored, emotional etc. Will attempt - again - to increase water intake.

Going fishing in Alaska with my dad at the end of June and I don’t want to feel this large and miserable. Glad to be back.

5/27-170 Weed wacked in the morning then went to yoga and ate a healthy dinner.
5/28-169 Went to work on weed abatement where I volunteer. Got 5 miles in walking, pushing the weed mower there. Made turkey meatloaf, mashed cauliflower and gravy.
5/29-169-Got about 5 miles in working on weed abatement again and worked in our yard. Attended an outdoor wedding.
5/30-172-Sedentary and consumed heavy food. Today is a new day and I’m heading back to where I volunteer and will be working on their weeds. They have a weed trimmer that I push, so I get a lot of steps in while working.😊
