Hi, Iβm Kathy.
57, F, 5β8β
17th 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: 228.0
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
6/26 228.4
6/27 228.4 Didnβt sleep at all well last night and I think Iβm still getting rid of the sodium from an (amazing) Mexican meal Saturday night. Headed to the doctor for my annual physical today and for the first time in a long time Iβm not dreading it. Welcome new friends!!
6/28 228.2 Much better sleep last night. Dr. was thrilled with the 30+ pound loss since last time I was in and is taking me off cholesterol meds to see if I can maintain progress without them. Exactly the outcome I was hoping for. Everything for today is planned and logged.
6/29 227.2 New recipe for dinner last night β chicken roll-ups with boursin cheese and basil. A definite keeper. Otherwise, everything for today is planned and logged.
6/30 227.2 Dinner got blown off course yesterday and fast food was the end result. With that in mind Iβm glad to hold steady. Got to get back into my workout routine β thatβs todayβs goal.

I used to do this challenge back in 2019 when I was on my weight loss journey. Pandemic hit and I gained it all back. I lost a bit in January this year but the number on the scale is creeping back up so I'm returning to myfitnesspal and the 10 day challenge.

@JbeanR0212 That Goldie Hawn quote reminded me of one from my BFFβs therapist. I think of it often when my husband says he wants to move - βNo matter where you go, there YOU are.β We can never escape from ourselves and only we can change our attitudes.
@SheilaBoneham Congratulations to Rory (and you) and happy birthday to Rory! Heβs beautiful.
@deewoodslady βWaiting for immediate resultsβ sounds rather contradictory. Hugs while you wait!3 -
Struggling to getting back on track. Fatigue and emotions keep derailing me but I'm not defeated until I stop trying. I get so focus on the immediate 3# yo-yoing that I forget that I've already lost 20.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
People say keto/LCHF isnβt sustainable. Iβve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. Itβs a LIFESTYLE.

6/27 120.5 GKI 12.7 Can sum this up in 3 words - HOT HOMEMADE BREAD!!! 2 slices buttered and Greek Salad with steak. No TMI in a couple of days Why does bread/wheat taste so good and treat me so bad(ly)??? Not worried about this bump.
6/28 120.5 GKI 13.0 Gotta give the bread away!
6/29 119.5 GKI 13.1 DH has been having balance issues for a week and is waiting for a referral. He just called to find out the statues-in the past it has taken only a few days-he was just told it takes up to 2 weeks to be processed! Meanwhile, he doesnβt like anything or anyone and yada yada. . . Sorry, itβs getting old.
6/30 118.5 GKI 6.4 βGrumpy old manβ and βgetting grumpy old womanβ had no eating plans in place. He ate the left over egg salad and I ate the leftover piece of rib eye. Around 5 or 6 we went to In-n-Out. I got the Double Double Protein style (no bun, wrapped in lettuce) with no spread (Russian dressing) added tomato and grilled onion as well as part of DHβs fresh onion. Cal over by almost 200, total carbs 9, protein and fat both over. This weekend involves stock car races (= possible junk food) and 4th of July community βpicnic.β Life is good, we have to learn to roll with the punches. Or as I said some time back Up and down - just riding the waves of life. π πββοΈ5 -

6/30 - 153.6 - I have zero clue what's going on with my body. I will say I'm quite sore in the lower legs (mostly shin/calves, a little in thighs) from all the walking up and down the hills in my new neighborhood recently. Tomorrow I'm off work (every other Friday off) and BF is able to be mobile with his work so we are getting out of house to do something with kids. Saturday I drive kids to Oklahoma to meet their mom so they can spend a week with her for the 4th (BF is on go-live, working 7 days a week starting Saturday until the 15th). On the 9th I go back to Oklahoma to meet mom to get kids back for remainder of summer. Hoping the travel doesn't shoot my weight straight up. Hanging in there, drinking my water, and trying to get extra movement where I can. Food will fall into place soon, I'm sure.

Previous Day's Comments6/26 - DNP
6/27 - No proper TMI for a couple days with lots and lots of sodium bloat. Back on track today. Finally got access to my new company's wellness and connect everything. I'm also trying to figure out my schedule to allow me to work out throughout the week without missing work or dropping off/picking up BigBro. It'll likely still take a few weeks to really get into a nice routine, but I'm getting there. Not sure what today holds. Goddaughter's last t-ball game tonight so we will be going to that. It's at 7, but we have to pick up Bigbro from work. Won't have time to do that, come home to cook, then drive back out so I have a feeling we will be eating out. Will focus on healthier options during the workday instead. Also focusing on water and getting up to move frequently throughout the day, even if I'm not using the bike, rower, or bodyweight moves for a proper workout.
6/28 - Still holding on to water and TMI... sigh. I did get out for an evening walk with the pup last night after the rain passed. Hoping to do something similar today. Fitbit died this morning so steps from about 8am to 11am were not counted but there were some! Realize I posted on the wrong date yesterday so I adjusted that today. Water and watching food today as yesterday wasn't great food-wise with the t-ball game and eating out. Grilled or smoked chicken tonight, based on what's thawing. Training today and starting on my first ever project! Eeek I'm nervous. But it's keeping me busy so I'm okay with that.
6/29 - Finally losing some of the water weight. Got a little TMI movement, but I'm not quite back to normal in that regards so likely holding on to some extra weight there, as well. Water was good yesterday at 90oz. BF took BigBro to work this morning so the SD and I went out for a "photography walk" to take pictures of sunrise with the big camera. Only to come home and realize my SD card reader is MIA... Just ordered a new one, though, which should be here Friday to see how they turned out for real. I got more steps in before work today than I ever did while commuting to work! Plus some quality time. Remote work has been fantastic. I have a couple days of posts to catch up on so I'm going to do that now. Not sure food for today, but will try to keep it in check throughout the day in case dinner is a bit more calorie-dense or unhealthy. Depending on dinner (if we go to Fam's or stay home) will take pup for another walk like we did last night. She's loving the remote work as well haha!

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.

6/26 : 210.2
6/27 : 209.8 Happy for every loss no matter how small. They all add up in the end. π
6/28 : 209.8 I had an appointment with the orthopedist today. Looks like I will be needing a knee replacement as soon as I decide I want it. Very large patella spur as well as bone on bone. Sigh
6/29 208.8 Iβll take it. Very happy with this number, not what I thought it would be. Anything in the downward direction is wonderful.
6/30 207 Wow!! Iβm thinking this is fluid loss from the cortisone shot in my knee on Tuesday. Iβve been good, but not that good. Visiting my mom for a few days so no weigh in tomorrow or Saturday.

Round 191 ( my 123rd). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round is just to lose, no binges,& keep within calories.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
6/26 139.8 - 13.27 miles walked yesterday. 50% exercise calories eaten back, no binge!!
6/27 139.8 β 7 miles walked yesterday. We had a big family picnic, all my DSs. nearly all of our children & grand-children: 30 of us in all, myself the eldest & our 12 month old DGD the youngest. We try to meet up at least once per year, but this is the first time since January 2020 (mostly due to the pandemic !)
6/28 141.6 - 4 miles walked, no structured walking as precipitation each time I was not working. Chocolate monster over powered me !! Feeling bloated & fat, spare tyre is visibly inflated, need to get back under control.
6/29 139.2 β 4.78 miles walked, intended to do more, but had e-mail to advise Commonwealth Games volunteer uniform was being delivered & had to be home to accept, walk cut short to get back and wait in for it! It is a bit 'snug', I was 6lbs lighter back in October when measured up for it so now I have 29 days to lose a few pounds to make it more comfortable, going to use that as an incentive to do well over this and next 2 rounds. 8 calories over due to having to restrict planned walk.
6/30 138.8 β 8.68 miles walked, a good food day, casual work finished now until November so walking should be increasing back to normal now which will help. 2/3 exercise calories eaten back.
7/1. 139.2 - 8.56 miles walked, all pushing 2 year old DGS in buggy. Good food choices, but all but 26 of exercise calories eaten back.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 / 167.8 / Yesterday I got my exercise by walking around our campground. The weather was pretty decent for most of the day. Stayed on track with my food and got a decent amount of water and the big post vacation whoosh I was expecting occurred this morning. I still have a ways to go but the worst of the bulk is gone. Today we take our friends on our boat and then head home to get ready to go back to work in the morning.
6/27 / 165.2 / Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps by walking to and from the boat while we were at the lake, and then with a final walk before bed with my husband and dog. The weather was beautiful and I had another very good day. Feeling much better as the vacation bloat clears away.
6/28 / 163.6 / Back down to my maintenance range and feeling great. Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps and did my long ride on the Peloton (60 minutes). Work was busy getting back into the swing of things and we were plagued with IT issues. Into the office today!
6/29 / 162 / Today didn't go well. I bickered with my husband before work about something trivial, and then work itself felt like a disaster. I didn't get my lunch walk (first time since I've been back, I think) and it just kept going downhill. Doesn't help when I recognize my attitude isn't helping but I can't pull out of the funk. Maybe one of the worst headspace days I've had in a while as my work stress is high and I'm letting it creep into other areas. Supposed to talk on the phone with a friend tonight so I think I'll combine that with a walk as I'm currently wasting my time I should be on the bike.
6/30 / 163.2 / Better day today. Did a 60 min Peloton ride. We are at the trailer now for three nights.

6/29: 251.2 β it is great to see the loss today as I struggled very hard to stay on plan yesterday. I am finding it more and more difficult to plan and cook my meals to plan. I want to give in and get something quick, easy and very bad for me. Yesterday was a bad day from the emotional point of view but I did manage to stay on plan although my calories were somewhat higher than normal, but still OK. I was doing fine without grains (bread, pasta, rice, corn etc.), but I am now (over a month in) starting to really miss them on bad days like yesterday. Luckily, I donβt really have anything in the house so it is harder to give in to cravings! I hope that today will be better
6/30: 251.0 β Staying on plan was easier yesterday. But I am struggling with doing all that prepping and cooking of meals. Planning far enough ahead that I know what I am going to eat is difficult. But if I donβt do that, I will make poor decisions about meals. But I am still hanging in there.
7/1: 251.0 β Still the same! Doing Ok but still struggling some with all the meal prep etc.

@enlightenme3 β I need to do that. I am not retired yet, but I have been working from home since COVID started and I am not sure that I will be going back to the office. I have a zillion pairs of black pants that I will probably never wear!
@deepwoodslady β I couldnβt breath etc about 6 years ago and was diagnosed with a heart issue or two. I did my first nuclear stress test earlier this year. I ended up having to get a pacemaker/defibrillator implanted. I was devastated at the time that I had so much going on/wrong with me. I am now MUCH better. With medication and the pacemaker/defibrillator my heart has really recovered, and I feel 100% better. Good luck with your results. Remember whatever they are, it is not the end of the world. Just a change in the world you live in.8 -
Okay Iβm going to try this again. I canβt seem to be consistent.

ROUND 190
SW: ?6/24 176.6 back from vacation. was i stressing over gaining weight so i didn't eat as much, or was i not stress eating? kinda like that old tootsie pop commercial, "the world may never know".
6/25 175.8 don't believe everything you see. it HAS to be my scale messing with me again because everyone knows i don't lose almost a pound overnight. someday i will invest in a better scale. until then....i'm enjoying the tiny fibs it tells me every once in a while.
ROUND 191
SW: 174.4
Day/Weight/Comment
6/26: 174.4 i will keep accepting these lower weights my scale is spitting out, just as i will accept the higher ones when it decides to tell the truth. maybe it's all my fault, and i should change the batteries? I forgot to mention my failures that have occurred since vacation. i am ashamed to say i have had a set back in my quitting smoking. i know that i will have to get that under control as well as my eating habits. i have also failed in my walking. i will need to get motivated and include that also. i have emotional stress in my life right now, which i see an end to in the future but that will take a few months. my weeks vacation visiting with family was nothing but smiles and laughter. driving home my failures began, and i realized i must do something besides diet and exercise for myself. i will continue to recognize my failures, but i will not beat myself up over them. a slow and steady path in the right direction is what i have chosen.
6/27: 174.4 i looked up how many calories i should be eating if i am sedentary and oh lordy lordy they're really trying to starve people! i did my check in yesterday and "whoop whoop" my neck is 1/2 in thinner! wow! was that a good feeling! i still haven't gotten back to my walks outside. i did spend 3 hours walking in a circle around my livingroom yesterday, and i think i am going to start calling the time i struggle with the dog to take her medicine "my cardio workout".
6/28: 174.8 OK scale... i must weigh 174.(something). my calories were good, my macros were good. my exercise was non-existant. aaarrrgggh, i thought getting back to exercising would be easier than this.
6/29: 174 changed the batteries in my scale, and my weight remained about the same. i'm owing my scale an apology now for accusing it of lying to me. my calorie intake was super low yesterday, i wasn't feeling very hungry. maybe it was because of the migraine lurking to attack me last night, but it's almost noon time today and i still have no appetite. i was thinking earlier how great this group is. no one is judgmental and everyone so supportive. it's excellent therapy without the giant price tag.
6/30: 173.6 another day of too low intake, but again great macros. i forced myself to go for my walk yesterday. 1.9mi @3mph. when i got home i was questioning my sanity. 2 weeks without walking, last night felt like a nightmare, but i'm sure it'll get better again. i am trying to do my walks 3-4 times a week.
7/: 172.4 calorie intake was at "sustain" level, so i'm shocked to see this loss. macros pretty good.

6/26 No scales
6/27 176.6. Back to work! I really need to just not take the foods Iβve been taking on trips with Dad. Gotta find some things he likes that I can control my consumption of.
6/28 175.8 Got in a nice walk yesterday. Headed back in the right direction, albeit slowly. Gotta start making choices that are best for my body again and be consistent about it.
6/29 175.4 Lots of steps yesterday and did a good job managing food intake.
6/30 176 Dinner out at a Mediterranean restaurant. Feeling really bloated. Taking healthy lunch to work and have a Skinnytaste recipe ready for the crockpot for dinner. Hoping for a drop tomorrow.
7/1 175.4 Not a great round, but Iβm not giving up. Not sure I'll get back to my last round end weight, but I have to try. No scales the next two mornings. Taking the granddaughter camping with her great-granddad. Then bringing him home with me for next week. Cookout on Monday, but I can manage that part. It's the camping food that I struggle with. I am taking leftovers from last night's Skinnytaste meal for tonight, so that meal will be fine. Fingers crossed for the weekend.

I'm in for my second round! I didn't do that great the previous round (gained almost 2 pounds), but I have hope for the next 10! These challenges are inspiring and helpful for holding myself accountable.
- 6/26 Sunday: 147.8
- 6/27 Monday: 147.2 - Planned meals and stuck to it yesterday and AF (planned alcohol free day)
- 6/28 Tuesday: 145.6 - AF - Yesterday stuck to meal plan, Peloton bike workout 30 minutes, and AF day (alcohol free). Have a meal plan for today. Two Blue Apron meals arrive today.
- 6/29 Wednesday: 145 - AF - YAY! I didn't get a workout in yesterday because I crashed on the sofa after work for a long nap but the good news is that I stuck close to my planned meals (went over a bit). I'm traveling for a few days starting today, so this will be a challenge for me. My pattern is to gain weight and go off plan when traveling.
- 6/30 Thursday: ??? - Not only am I traveling, the weekend is coming up and today I was 500+ calories over goal but got in a hard 45-minute Peloton bike workout. I'll be back home on Saturday. My goal is to maintain my weight from Wednesday over the weekend.
