      ~ Happy to see it back down again! But… I’m realistically preparing to go right back up. This weekend will be a triple threat for me. Number#1: It’s a weekend; #2: I’ll already have started my week long vacation with my Dad and brothers families up in SC; then of course Number#3: 4th of July festivities will be right on the day where I tend to get back on track; I’ll try to come up with a plan but there so hard to follow sometimes!

      ~ See!! This is why I love these groups! Someone posted “It’s your sodium!! CHECK YOUR SODIUM!! It was meant for someone else but somehow I caught it out the corner of my eye!! Thank you thank you!! In all these years of over-analyzation I never had an ah-ha moment over sodium count

      ~ “Ole’ reliable” showed up today; my weight can go up OR down when she comes every month.. depends how or IF I fight through the extra cravings. Yesterday, the re was no fight in me

    Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

    6/26 - 179.6
    I know half a pound isn’t significant, but still….Ever since the doctor’s dietitian put me on that very restrictive elimination diet 4 years ago to look for sensitivities (I have none), I find it harder than it’s ever been in my life to lose weight, and oh so easy to gain. I should have known better, but the quick weight loss then was so gratifying I didn’t question it. They — especially the dietician —should have known better for sure! Ok, just letting off steam, because it’s so frustrating to find it so hard to lose when I’m sticking to my food goals. No hugs needed, I’m just venting, and I’ll keep sticking to it. Have a lovely Sunday!

    6/27 - 180
    Ok, whatever. I did have some rhubarb ginger crisp last night, but my overall calories were fine. I made my 26th different weekly soup yesterday—West African Peanut Soup with chicken. Really good! This soup challenge has been a lot of fun. Now to find 26 more different soups! 🍵

    6/28 - 179.8
    Nothing much to report! 😁

    6/29 - 181.2
    Whaaaa??? This makes no sense, unless I’m waterlogged. I mean, it has to be water—I didn’t gain a pound and a half overnight. Calories were fine, though fat was a bit high, and I was on my feet at dog training for 5 hours, so not exactly sedentary. I don’t get it. I thought about fibbing to you guys, but what’s the point of that? Anyway, I’m disgusted. Hoping it falls back off.

    6/30 - 179.6
    That’s better. And I was so glum yesterday I forget to mention Tuesday was my pup Rory’s birthday! He’s a year old now, and to celebrate, he passed his AKC Temperment and Advanced Canine Good Citizen tests and his Therapy Dog test on Tuesday, the first day he was eligible. Here he is looking all grown up.

    7/01 - 180.2
    🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends! My dad was born in Alberta and my mom and her family immigrated to Alberta from Scotland when she was a kid; my siblings were born there, and I am eligible for Canadian citizenship by birth. Had I known that when I was younger, I would have applied. Still might! 🇨🇦

    @J

    @deewoodslady “Waiting for immediate results” sounds rather contradictory. Hugs while you wait!

    @quiltingjaine LOL, too funny! You are right! To clarify, I have a follow-up appt with cardiologist for results July 12th, but hospital said if doctor does not call me within 2 days with results, to call his office. So I suppose the 12th is just to go over treatment plan maybe? Anyway, I guess that was a true oxymoron lol.

    @deepwoodslady – I couldn’t 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.


    @karilbrandt Thanks so much for sharing your information. I feel better knowing that with treatment, things may get much better for me. Your words have given me much comfort.

    /x/ Spontaneous dinner out last night at a BBQ place with DW and her cousin. Her cousin is in town to join her for a piano performance at her mom’s nursing home. It will be a nice program. They play four-handed pieces, which are fun.

    My first day on Medicare. Oooffff! What just happened here? Seems like I was just in first grade.





    @_JeffreyD_ OhmyGosh, what a WONDERFUL video. Fascinating, of course, and fun to watch. But also so calming and soothing. I may watch it from time to time, just to find a little peace when I need it. Thanks so much for sharing!

    Day/Weight/Comment
    06/25 …..203.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
    06/26 …..202.8 ….. (Trend weight 204.0) I’m happy to start this round with a one pound drop. I carefully planned my meals and snacks yesterday, just not enough movement because it was so hot! Good luck to everyone this round. We’re in this together! Thanks Jaine for posting this and continuing to be an inspiration!

    06/27 …..198.4 ….. (Trend weight 203.5) Onederland, Onederland!!!! But a 4 ½ lb loss overnight? Hard to believe. I took batteries in and out several times. Then tried new ones. Even moved the scale to my non-typical spot. Yep, 198.2. The only explanation is that I did take my waterpill yesterday since I was home. (I won’t be able to take it the next 3 days as I’ll be away from home). But THAT much water retention due to heart no pumping properly? Wow! So today is the ultrasound on the heart and I get hooked up to a heart monitor I will wear home for a couple of days. Then traveling even further south for some building supplies at a special store. Going with my son. When we hit the big city I promised him golden corral and we may try to fit in the Elvis movie. Scale will be up tomorrow from GC and lots of sitting but I plan on making it a nice day for the two of us. Watch what you put on the plate Donna!

    06/28 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0)
    I had yesterday’s weight off by 0.2 so I have corrected it. I’ll take what I see today on the scale gladly after so much travel sitting, hospital sitting, theater sitting and Golden Corral. Ultrasound was completed and I have a monitor on now (that added a few ounces to my scale too?). Feeling really motivated right now seeing the 100’s instead of 200’s, even after travel. I have my oldest grandson’s birthday deal with me later today. I am taking him to the salon for a facial and acne treatment (pimple extraction). I want to see how his skin reacts. Would be such a nice thing before school pix etc. I am back to travel/hospital tomorrow for the nuclear stress test and monitor removal. I am working hard to stay focused and not let the situations limit my progress. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very stressed out about the stress test. I hope I don’t have a heart attack in the middle of it. When I say I can’t breathe, I’m being serious here. But I do want some answers. By the way, I loved, loved, loved the Elvis movie. Even my 25 year old son really liked it and he’s not exactly an Elvis fan. It was as much about Col. Tom Parker as it was Elvis. A very interesting story and all the actors were wonderful including Tom Hanks. Rotten Tomatoes gave it high scores and it tied for number one at the box office this past opening weekend with Top Gun Maverick. Glad I went.

    06/29 …..201.0 ….. (Trend weight 202.8) I’m not too surprised to see the jump up even though it is always disappointing. 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 DNW] 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.

    07/01 ……202.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0) It was a very emotionally disturbing day yesterday with my daughter. I definitely am out of whack today. No TMI, no sleep last night, and extra comfort food very late, right before bed. I feel like death warmed over today. I hope I can just relax later. Today is my son’s birthday who lives with me. I will take him on an outing on another day when I can feel better.

    07/02 ……xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

    07/03 ……xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

    07/04 ……xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

    07/05 ……xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)

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

    Hi, I’m Kathy.
    57, F, 5’8”
    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 Didn’t sleep at all well last night and I think I’m 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 I’m 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 – 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 I’m glad to hold steady. Got to get back into my workout routine – that’s today’s goal.
    7/1 226.4 Pretty big NSV this morning. I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror (which I usually try to avoid like the plague 😊) and I could SEE how much weight I’ve lost. I’m proud of myself. But I’m not done – I want to do more. This weekend will be tricky but I’m going to enjoy myself within reason and not deny myself.
