    Thank you for the input!
    Really good points.

    I haven't had any grains at all in weeks I think.
    My carbs always look high on the pie chart, I eat lots of berries and raw veggies throughout the day at work, grazing really. Veggies and berries are carbs.
    I really feel that I somehow have to start to add some grains into my daily.

    Tina, I hadn't thought about the sun making me retain water, or drinking so much extra water while working (playing) in my yard. Yesterday I only had 20 minutes to spare for doing that, and dropped more than a pound. Hmm.

    Donna, I do have some funner foods each week, I just keep the quantities low (like 4 chicken wings).
    A 3 pound gain from ribs seems to take 3-6 months to erase, but I really do get your point about shaking things up.
    Once in awhile I eat back some exercise calories on high output days, to the tune of 1800-1900 input.

    I know that I take it too hard when I see a gain, and let myself get frustrated. I should really be grateful to have taken off like 50 pounds instead of lamenting that it was 60. I have worked hard at this, as we all have, and don't want to gain any more back. Being so short, a 10 pound gain has made many of my clothes unwearable.

    At the end of the day it has been a lifestyle and eating habit change.
    I need it to be sustainable over the long term, not a short term fix. Certain things I am not willing to give up, but have made some of them occasional, and others I now measure (coffee cream).
    What got me to this weight might not get me to my UGW, so I may need to experiment and tweak some more.

    Always happy to hear suggestions : - )

    I am Dawn
    5'2", 61 years old.
    Started MFP October 28.18
    According to the charts I should be somewhere between 110-118 to have the best health.
    I topped out at 207, joined MFP at 191.

    I gained 2.7 pounds last month. Going to try to get rid of that.


    Wednesday 6/1: 137.7
    Thursday 6/2: 137.8
    6/3: 137.5 - Huge calorie burn yesterday due to gardening, almost more than I ate. Much digging, lifting, pulling, bending, stretching, squats, lunges etc. Rain is expected which will be perfect for the 34 pepper plants that are (finally) in the ground. Due to my eye injury I was way behind schedule, so feeling really good that I toughed it out for many hours before and after work yesterday. It would have been nice if the scale had jumped as much as it does when it goes the other direction.
    6/4: 138.5 - I had 4 wings and a pita pizza last night. Within my calorie range, but I did expect to see a gain and did by stepping out of my usual foods.
    Sunday 6/5: 139.9 - Indulgent weekend. Going to be "good" today. I was actually in the "Red" yesterday, which is uncommon. I had company so didn't get any sort of calorie burn, also unusual for me.
    6/6: 140.6 - Yikes, still climbing? I will get on top of that. I was very "good" yesterday.
    6/7: 139.7 - Better.
    6/8: 137.7 - Back to my start weight for the month, but still 2.7 above the month prior. Lunch out tomorrow with people from out of town, but lots of hiking too (booked the day off) so hopefully that will mitigate it.
    Thursday 6/9: 137.6 - Good start to the day.
    6/9: 139.0 - Well, that is what happens when lunch is out. I ate only half of it, but restaurant food is restaurant food.
    6/10: 139.4 - Burned lots of calories yesterday before and after work. Day off today, so will be getting in lots of activity and eating healthy foods.
    6/11: 139.4 - Lots of calorie burn (yardwork) but also cocktails each day. That won't happen today.
    6/12: 139.5 - Really expected a loss today, but I will be patient that it could take a few days to register. Worked my tail off in the yard yesterday, exceeding my food calories with calorie burn. My body could be in a bit of shock and holding on to fat lol. Soooo glad that I kept at it, raining like crazy, 90% for the next couple of days, so I couldn't have gotten the grass cut and trimmed. The newest plantings will get a good soaking : - )
    Tuesday 6/13: 138.4 - Good to see a drop, I really feel like there will be more. No outdoor activity to burn calories during this rain week for me, so glad that I persevered and got so much done over the weekend.
    6/14: 136.9 - My huge calorie burns from the weekend finally showing up on the scale?
    6/15: 139.5 - No reason to gain almost 3 pounds over night. Consumption was on track, lots of activity, feeling leaner than that. Sheesh. Either yesterday or today were a fluke.
    6/16: 138.5 - We have a big festival in our town for 4 days, the first one since 2019. Saturday is when all of the fun events happen that I want to attend, plus I will be off of work : - )
    6/18: 138.5 - I seldom get the same weight 2 days in a row. Kind of resigned that I am sort of stuck around this number. Many festival outings today, and although I will log all of my consumption, I still plan on loosening it up a bit.
    Sunday 6/19: 138.1 - I will be having dinner out tomorrow, so I am going to keep it light today.
    6/20: 138.8 - low on calories, high on calorie burn. Should have seen a drop, but nope. Dinner out tonight will not help, going to keep it very light until then and try to get in some extra activity throughout the day.
    6/21: 139.7 - Dinner out, so I expected a gain. Mexican + Margaritas = delicious but fattening.
    6/22: 139.0 - I realize that it will take me awhile to recover from eating restaurant food. I am working on it.
    6/23: 138.8 - Hoping to at least get back to my start weight of this current month, even though that one was an almost 3 pound gain from the previous month. My pants are tight and my shorts from last summer are nowhere near being able to be worn because of the zippers. Being short...makes 5 -10 pounds mean almost a whole size.
    Friday 6/24: 137.8 - Slowly working off those 2 restaurant meals in this month. 5 days left of the month! The weather has finally turned here and we are finally into summer 2 months late. I plan to work in my yard all weekend on my days off.
    6/25: 137.3 - 35c
    6/26: Sunday - DNW - Up too early drinking water and coffee
    6/27: 140.1 - ?? I burned more calories than I ate yesterday digging in my yard in the sun. Maybe my body is rebelling : - )
    6/28: 140.5 - Yet another unexplained gain. Frustrating, but maybe it will take a few days to even out?
    6/29: Wednesday 139.3
    6/30: -

    Start weight this month 137.7

    6/1: 181.8 Yesterday was a Walk + full body strength workout
    6/2: 181.4 Yesterday was a running day + lower body/core barre workout
    6/3: 181.2 Yesterday was an active recovery day with a long walk + a core/mobility session. Was a bit of a struggle mentally with food yesterday but I ignored those thoughts and stayed on plan.
    6/4: 181.2 Yesterday was an upper body strength workout with weights, on track with my goals
    6/5: 181.0 Yesterday was a running day + legs/glutes strength workout. Looking in the mirror, seeing some subtle but positive changes!
    6/6: 180.8 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day and it really was - didn't do a thing.
    6/7: 180.7 Yesterday was a full body cardio with weights workout. Red lentil spaghetti with zoodles for dinner, one of my new favorites!
    6/8: 180.6 Yesterday was a running day + full body super sets workout. Need to grocery shop and meal plan today.
    6/9: 180.4 Yesterday was a walk + lower body barre workout. Felt so full after dinner last night (gluten free gnocchi with veg) but didn't overeat & was well within my calorie deficit = the power of nutrient dense food!
    6/10: 180.1 Yesterday was a running day + mobility & core workout. It stormed all morning but luckily stopped in time for me to get a run in.
    6/11: 180.1 Yesterday was an upper body workout with weights, other than that it was a very sedentary day with extremely low step count.
    6/12: 180.1 Yesterday was a running day + Legs/Glutes workout, lots of steps but a very relaxing day too :)
    6/13: 179.9 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day, a nice Sunday with family and a delicious dinner!
    6/14: 179.8 Yesterday was a lower body/abs workout. Did some meal prep and made some quinoa protein breakfast bars, so good!
    6/15: 179.5 Yesterday was a running day + upper body workout with weights. My calories have been a little low the last 2 days, just not feeling hungry. Going to try to be more on the higher end of my calorie range today.
    6/16: 179.4 Yesterday was a walk + barre workout. Successfully went out to dinner and stayed on track!
    6/17: 179.1 Yesterday was a running day + mobility/core workout. My daughter's school year ended yesterday, so now get an extra 2 hours sleep in the morning before work, very happy about that!
    6/18:179.1 Yesterday was a full body workout with weights, on track with my goals but need to make sure I am getting all the calories I have planned for each day - been a little low caloric wise all week and feeling it today.
    6/19: 178.6 Yesterday was a running day + a cardio core workout. Pretty perfect running conditions in the mid 60's. This is my lowest weight since 2020, pretty happy about that!!!
    6/20: 178.6 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day + lovely family day :)
    6/21: 180.6 Took the day off yesterday from exercise and dieting, so this is no surprise. It's good for the mental health every so often to have an indulgence day.
    6/22: 179.6 Yesterday was a running day + got right back to logging and being in a calorie deficit.
    6/23: 178.2 Yesterday was a full body workout focused on glutes, hamstrings, side body + some weights. Successfully navigated a splurge day on Monday and am back to losing weight today.
    6/24: 177.5 Yesterday was a running day, felt a little sluggish, but at least I got it done!
    6/25: 177.2 Yesterday was a full body workout with weights & the completion of the 30-day workout program I was doing. Feeling much stronger, will start a new one on Monday.
    6/26: 176.5 Yesterday was a running day and it finally felt like summer, so hot! I'm going to need to be up earlier to run to beat the heat.
    6/27: 176.2 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day
    6/28: 175.9 Yesterday was a posterior chain muscle group workout
    6/29: 175.9 Yesterday was a running day + upper body/core sculpting strength workout. Dinner was way too salty last night, lots of water today.

    @TinaLeigh67 I've had people make similar comments (or at least suggest it would be bad for me to lose more)!! It's silly because I'm in the top end of my normal BMI and still have flab that COULD go

    Totally related to the "ummm nope!"

    June goal: maintenance of 125-130

    My goal for this month is to maintain my UGW. I know that as I am able to add more foods to my diet following surgery, the weight will want to creep up. I am hoping my surgeon clears me for some light exercise and I can start working on that this month. Hoping to increase my walking as well. Need to force myself to move!

    6/01 - 128.4 (131.8 trend)
    6/02 - 128.6 (131.3 trend) surgeon said I was doing excellent and continue to follow soft, mushy diet for 6 weeks. I'm one week in

    6/07 - 130.6 (130.7 trend) - indulged a bit yesterday and it showed. You only turn 55 once, right? Now that swelling and pain is gone, I'm eating more. Even soft, mushy food can add up. Need to start weighing and logging again.
    6/08 - 129.4 (130.5 trend) - going to be a lot of bouncing up and down
    6/09 - 129.4 (130.4 trend)

    6/11 - DNW

    6/13 - 128.0 (129.4 trend) love the weekends I don't end up with a gain. Hasn't happened often
    6/14 - 128.0 (129.3 trend) 3 more weeks of soft diet. So looking forward to chewing again. What I wouldn't give for a piece of chicken!
    6/15 - 128.4 (129.1 trend)
    6/16 - DNW

    6/21 - 130.6 (129.4 trend) Really need my system to clean out
    6/22 - 129.6 (129.4 trend)
    6/23 - DNW
    6/24 - 129.2 (129.3 trend) a little less than 2 weeks left of soft diet. Hoping I don't go crazy and put the weight back on.
    6/25 - DNW
    6/26 - DNW
    6/27 - 129.2 (129.3 trend)

Celebrated DGS 16th birthday yesterday and ended up about 246 calories over. I feel some of this is also from the outing the day before catching up to me. I mean, I was careful but it WAS Golden Corral. Today is travel back to the hospital. Nervous about the testing and missing my coffee already. Afterward, Shopping and restaurant lunch with my friend who is going with me later. I will keep my eye on the ball and watch what I order.


    06/30.…..DNW…..(Trend Weight DNV)…… After 3 days of travel sitting, a 4 hour (mostly sitting) testing window and restaurants, I did not want to see the temporary rise again, so I will weigh tomorrow and take the punches then. Hopefully it will not be too inflated by then. Heart monitor is off. Now I wait for a call from the doctor for immediate results, then an appt on July 12 for a treatment plan. I will use tomorrow’s weight as my June end weight and my July start weight.

    April Start Weight: 189.4 lbs.
    May Start Weight: 184.1 lbs.
    June Start Weight: 181.8 lbs.

    June Goals: Running 3 x per week, Body Strength Workouts, Mindful Way of Eating, Daily Accountability

    6/1: 181.8 Yesterday was a Walk + full body strength workout
    6/2: 181.4 Yesterday was a running day + lower body/core barre workout
    6/3: 181.2 Yesterday was an active recovery day with a long walk + a core/mobility session. Was a bit of a struggle mentally with food yesterday but I ignored those thoughts and stayed on plan.
    6/4: 181.2 Yesterday was an upper body strength workout with weights, on track with my goals
    6/5: 181.0 Yesterday was a running day + legs/glutes strength workout. Looking in the mirror, seeing some subtle but positive changes!
    6/6: 180.8 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day and it really was - didn't do a thing.
    6/7: 180.7 Yesterday was a full body cardio with weights workout. Red lentil spaghetti with zoodles for dinner, one of my new favorites!
    6/8: 180.6 Yesterday was a running day + full body super sets workout. Need to grocery shop and meal plan today.
    6/9: 180.4 Yesterday was a walk + lower body barre workout. Felt so full after dinner last night (gluten free gnocchi with veg) but didn't overeat & was well within my calorie deficit = the power of nutrient dense food!
    6/10: 180.1 Yesterday was a running day + mobility & core workout. It stormed all morning but luckily stopped in time for me to get a run in.
    6/11: 180.1 Yesterday was an upper body workout with weights, other than that it was a very sedentary day with extremely low step count.
    6/12: 180.1 Yesterday was a running day + Legs/Glutes workout, lots of steps but a very relaxing day too :)
    6/13: 179.9 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day, a nice Sunday with family and a delicious dinner!
    6/14: 179.8 Yesterday was a lower body/abs workout. Did some meal prep and made some quinoa protein breakfast bars, so good!
    6/15: 179.5 Yesterday was a running day + upper body workout with weights. My calories have been a little low the last 2 days, just not feeling hungry. Going to try to be more on the higher end of my calorie range today.
    6/16: 179.4 Yesterday was a walk + barre workout. Successfully went out to dinner and stayed on track!
    6/17: 179.1 Yesterday was a running day + mobility/core workout. My daughter's school year ended yesterday, so now get an extra 2 hours sleep in the morning before work, very happy about that!
    6/18:179.1 Yesterday was a full body workout with weights, on track with my goals but need to make sure I am getting all the calories I have planned for each day - been a little low caloric wise all week and feeling it today.
    6/19: 178.6 Yesterday was a running day + a cardio core workout. Pretty perfect running conditions in the mid 60's. This is my lowest weight since 2020, pretty happy about that!!!
    6/20: 178.6 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day + lovely family day :)
    6/21: 180.6 Took the day off yesterday from exercise and dieting, so this is no surprise. It's good for the mental health every so often to have an indulgence day.
    6/22: 179.6 Yesterday was a running day + got right back to logging and being in a calorie deficit.
    6/23: 178.2 Yesterday was a full body workout focused on glutes, hamstrings, side body + some weights. Successfully navigated a splurge day on Monday and am back to losing weight today.
    6/24: 177.5 Yesterday was a running day, felt a little sluggish, but at least I got it done!
    6/25: 177.2 Yesterday was a full body workout with weights & the completion of the 30-day workout program I was doing. Feeling much stronger, will start a new one on Monday.
    6/26: 176.5 Yesterday was a running day and it finally felt like summer, so hot! I'm going to need to be up earlier to run to beat the heat.
    6/27: 176.2 Yesterday was a scheduled rest day
    6/28: 175.9 Yesterday was a posterior chain muscle group workout
    6/29: 175.9 Yesterday was a running day + upper body/core sculpting strength workout. Dinner was way too salty last night, lots of water today.
    6/30: 175.7 Yesterday was a walk + lower body strength workout... Was hoping for a bigger loss today but still please with how this month went: 6.1 lbs. lost in June!

    I am Dawn
    5'2", 61 years old.
    Started MFP October 28.18
    According to the charts I should be somewhere between 110-118 to have the best health.
    I topped out at 207, joined MFP at 191.

    I gained 2.7 pounds last month. Going to try to get rid of that.


    Wednesday 6/1: 137.7
    Thursday 6/2: 137.8
    6/3: 137.5 - Huge calorie burn yesterday due to gardening, almost more than I ate. Much digging, lifting, pulling, bending, stretching, squats, lunges etc. Rain is expected which will be perfect for the 34 pepper plants that are (finally) in the ground. Due to my eye injury I was way behind schedule, so feeling really good that I toughed it out for many hours before and after work yesterday. It would have been nice if the scale had jumped as much as it does when it goes the other direction.
    6/4: 138.5 - I had 4 wings and a pita pizza last night. Within my calorie range, but I did expect to see a gain and did by stepping out of my usual foods.
    Sunday 6/5: 139.9 - Indulgent weekend. Going to be "good" today. I was actually in the "Red" yesterday, which is uncommon. I had company so didn't get any sort of calorie burn, also unusual for me.
    6/6: 140.6 - Yikes, still climbing? I will get on top of that. I was very "good" yesterday.
    6/7: 139.7 - Better.
    6/8: 137.7 - Back to my start weight for the month, but still 2.7 above the month prior. Lunch out tomorrow with people from out of town, but lots of hiking too (booked the day off) so hopefully that will mitigate it.
    Thursday 6/9: 137.6 - Good start to the day.
    6/9: 139.0 - Well, that is what happens when lunch is out. I ate only half of it, but restaurant food is restaurant food.
    6/10: 139.4 - Burned lots of calories yesterday before and after work. Day off today, so will be getting in lots of activity and eating healthy foods.
    6/11: 139.4 - Lots of calorie burn (yardwork) but also cocktails each day. That won't happen today.
    6/12: 139.5 - Really expected a loss today, but I will be patient that it could take a few days to register. Worked my tail off in the yard yesterday, exceeding my food calories with calorie burn. My body could be in a bit of shock and holding on to fat lol. Soooo glad that I kept at it, raining like crazy, 90% for the next couple of days, so I couldn't have gotten the grass cut and trimmed. The newest plantings will get a good soaking : - )
    Tuesday 6/13: 138.4 - Good to see a drop, I really feel like there will be more. No outdoor activity to burn calories during this rain week for me, so glad that I persevered and got so much done over the weekend.
    6/14: 136.9 - My huge calorie burns from the weekend finally showing up on the scale?
    6/15: 139.5 - No reason to gain almost 3 pounds over night. Consumption was on track, lots of activity, feeling leaner than that. Sheesh. Either yesterday or today were a fluke.
    6/16: 138.5 - We have a big festival in our town for 4 days, the first one since 2019. Saturday is when all of the fun events happen that I want to attend, plus I will be off of work : - )
    6/18: 138.5 - I seldom get the same weight 2 days in a row. Kind of resigned that I am sort of stuck around this number. Many festival outings today, and although I will log all of my consumption, I still plan on loosening it up a bit.
    Sunday 6/19: 138.1 - I will be having dinner out tomorrow, so I am going to keep it light today.
    6/20: 138.8 - low on calories, high on calorie burn. Should have seen a drop, but nope. Dinner out tonight will not help, going to keep it very light until then and try to get in some extra activity throughout the day.
    6/21: 139.7 - Dinner out, so I expected a gain. Mexican + Margaritas = delicious but fattening.
    6/22: 139.0 - I realize that it will take me awhile to recover from eating restaurant food. I am working on it.
    6/23: 138.8 - Hoping to at least get back to my start weight of this current month, even though that one was an almost 3 pound gain from the previous month. My pants are tight and my shorts from last summer are nowhere near being able to be worn because of the zippers. Being short...makes 5 -10 pounds mean almost a whole size.
    Friday 6/24: 137.8 - Slowly working off those 2 restaurant meals in this month. 5 days left of the month! The weather has finally turned here and we are finally into summer 2 months late. I plan to work in my yard all weekend on my days off.
    6/25: 137.3 - 35c
    6/26: Sunday - DNW - Up too early drinking water and coffee
    6/27: 140.1 - ?? I burned more calories than I ate yesterday digging in my yard in the sun. Maybe my body is rebelling : - )
    6/28: 140.5 - Yet another unexplained gain. Frustrating, but maybe it will take a few days to even out?
    6/29: Wednesday 139.3
    6/30: - 138.2

    Start weight this month 137.7 - Month Gain = 0.5pounds - scary rise in weight for 2 days near the end of the month...that went away.

    Height: 5'3"
    June goal: < 120lbs

    I'm back after a break. I didn't even have access to my scale part of last month. Unfortunately, I put on a few pounds due to travel but had dropped most of it but then blew it over the holiday weekend. Like my goals for the last year I'm still trying to get under 120lbs and stay there. Sometimes it feels futile. I'll be back to daily weighing.

    01 - 123.5
    02 - 123.0
    04 - 122.8
    09 - 121.8 Finally on the right track
    10 - 120.5

    11 - 121.0
    17 - 121.6
    18 - 121.1
    26 - 119.7
    30 - 120.3 Close but not quite there

    I'm happy to be down about 3lbs on the month but for July I'd like to do a better job of weighing every day.
