Day/Weight/Comment
6/26: 133.2 - Well, I was over in calories yesterday but did drink a ton of water and got both my workouts in, Excellent sleep for once even though I went to bed quite late.
6/27: 132.7 - Ate pretty well - balanced macros. Need to get back to not eating after 8pm though. Good workout and a dog walk (not ours - it was fun!).
6/28: 132.9 - Got my normal workouts in although I was a little tired in the afternoon. Dinner was a little heavier than usual (or I ate a bit more). Good sleep.
6/29: 134.0 - Had two social events yesterday that derailed my eating. Normal workouts though.
6/30: 134.0 - Normal workouts and cleaning out my closet yesterday. I’m now 10 pairs of shoes lighter. :-) I figured high heels weren’t really something I was going to wear anymore now that I’m retired. I also realized that all my old work shoes and clothes were black, black, and more black. I’m excited to bring more color into my outerwear and shoes.
7/1: 132.9 - Happy first of July! Hard to believe I’ve been on this MFP journey for the last 10 months and for the most part have stuck to my workouts and eating plans. Even though we are focused on 10 days at a time here, it is certainly helpful to look at the long game (both backwards and forwards) especially on those days where you gain a pound or two.
7/2: 132.9 - Went to the ball game last night with our neighbors and had a lovely time. I was worried about what ballpark food would do for my calories, but it was needless worry. When Impossible burgers cost $16 and fries are $8, you don’t end up over indulging :-). I got all my workouts in and ate well for the most part.
7/3: 132.9 - A little surprised since I ate every single calorie including exercise calories allotted. Good workouts.
7/4: 132.9 - Got my workout in. Had 3 baking projects going yesterday, which meant of course I wasn’t paying full attention and ended up forgetting the baking soda in one item. I was able to salvage it (they were twice baked crackers), but not my best effort. 3 more projects today but I need to pay attention because we invited folks over for dessert this evening and today’s efforts are what I’m serving.
7/5: 132.5 - Pre-logged which helped me stay under calories. Who knew that a slice of pie had that many calories!?!

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 191 120.0 AW 119.2
6/26 118.5 GKI 6.4
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 doesn’t like anything or anyone and yada yada. . . Sorry, it’s getting old.
6/30 118.5 GKI 6.4 “Grumpy old man” and “getting grumpy old woman” 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 DH’s 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 “picnic.” 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. 🌊 🏄♀️
7/1 118.5 118.0 GKI 8.7 Edited weight after 10 oz (wt) of coffee and TMI! I had one glass of red wine yesterday.
7/2 119.0 GKI 12.1 Golden Corral, UGH TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL! Okay, I wasn’t really but I ate salad, cauliflower, overcooked hamburger patty, fried chicken (1 pc - the skin is the best!) and tater tots and 1 hush puppy. At least I skipped dessert!
7/3 118.0 GKI 8.3 [cal +305 carbs -20 pro +11 fat. +28 (beef and cheddar)] Going to stock car races and early fireworks this evening (LVMS Night of Fire) neighbor made a charcuterie box to avoid junk food, I plan to eat before we go. My original plan was to eat ALL OF THE JUNK FOOD😮 Hoping to be strong!
7/4 119.0 GKI 10.2 🇺🇸HAPPY 4th OF JULY🇺🇸 Yesterday Great Greek 1/2 salad with 4 oz steak, no pita. My neighbor made a charcuterie box to take to the races. I may have had a total 1.5 oz of meat and cheese but the deli chicken tasted sweet. Fortunately only tiny round slices - about the dice of pizza size pepperoni. Did eat three small pieces of DH’s soft pretzel - yummy for the salt, the pretzel - not so much.
7/5 121.0 GKI 9.8 very disappointed at fourth July picnic last night. I had two pieces of fried chicken(a thigh and a breast), one green grape, one bite of pineapple, all the fruit that was left were sweet melons, bread, baked beans with sugar. They were out of potato salad(which I don’t eat.) Oh and cupcakes for dessert, nope, didn’t eat one. So this damage is from the breading on the chicken and a sugar free whiskey sour. I’m glad I had eaten earlier in the day but my stomach is growling now (8:30 am) which is very unusual.4 -
Round 191
Ended where I started. Hopefully the next ten days goes a little better!
@jlh528: That's my life story. I lost several pounds during round 191 - before the 4th - but then gained back 2 at the end. I did lose a little over a pound for round 191. I'll take it. Hope I can take more off the next round!

SW: 358.4 (Exercise 3-4 times at least 10 minutes, goal to lose 2 to 3 lbs. each challenge, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out more than once every 10-day challenge)

6/29 360.0 4021
6/30 360.0 6423
7/01 361.2 2058 – Well the end of the month (and quarter end) is over and the close was stressful, but I don’t see how I gained 3.8 pounds, but I did. My steps were down some days, but my eating was ok, not clean but under calories. Oh well, I am not going to stress about it. Just going to keep on keeping on and work on eating cleaner and do more moving
7/02 360.6 5005 – Happy to see I am down today.
7/03 356.8 5085 – I did not lose almost 4 pounds in a day, and I ate terrible yesterday. Not a binge but not good. My body is crazy, but I understand it. That is why I did not flip over the gains when I knew I was not going over calories. I had fried catfish today and fries. Tonight, if I get hungry I will have some strawberries.
7/04 355.8 4744 – Yesterday was a little over calories but I had a nice big salad and I fish was not beef. Today has not been too bad so far. I will be under calories. I am having a salad for dinner and had a nice big breakfast late afternoon.
7/05 355.8 Well I am down to 355.8! Lowest weight this year! Started at 380. Yay! I am so looking forward to getting a pedicure. Right now, I am too big to fit the chairs with bad knees also. When I was closer to 300 that was one of the things I enjoyed for a little while. I will get back there again. One pound at a time. I didn’t think I would lose anything this round, but I got back on track and managed a nice lose. On to the next round! I will see you all. I will be more supportive the next round now that quarter end is over at work
Total lost this round: (-2.6) (Goal this round: 358)

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010, weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Outpatient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO, the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively every day. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Every day I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.6 -

I don’t want to waste it so I might be gaining the next few days to finish the bottle while only drinking about 3/4 cup at a time. After this bottle of Keifer and some remaining Raw cheese, going to stop eating raw cheese and whole milk keifer until hitting weight loss goals.

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.
7/1 / 163.4 / Canada Day today so I'm off work. Sun is shining. Hoping to get lots of movement and lots of relaxation.
7/2 / 162 / We did get a 60 minute walk in yesterday but beyond that we were pretty inactive. The trailer is small and there was a huge thunderstorm at night so we played games and then put ourselves to bed early. Good day.
7/3 / 165.2 / Today was a food fest.. didn't go crazy but had two big events, a 75th birthday party for a friend that was at a brunch buffet and an Indian takeout for another friend's birthday. Happy with how I navigate these events now compared to before. I also got 45 minutes in on the Peloton.
7/4 / 164 / Work gave us an extra long weekend for Canada Day so I spent my extra day off being active. Did 75 minutes of Peloton and walked over 5 miles with my husband and dog around our town with a few fun stops for lunch along the way. The skies were very cloudy but we made the best of it.
7/5 / 164 / Happy to have gotten back into maintenance range after my vacation. This round was great. Today I did walking for my exercise as my legs needed a break from the bike.5 -

/nothing/ Time to buckle down before July. I am eating away from home for four out of the five weekends in July, and the other one is a holiday weekend.
6/28: 216
/some “nominal” dumbbell work/ I lost a pound even though lunch and supper were both restaurant meals. I have some major work to do if I plan to lower my 10-day average.
6/29: 216
/yoga and spinning/ I would have thought a pound or two would have sweated off. I did eat back a couple hundred exercise calories….
6/30: 216
/grass mowing/ My current habit of rounding to the nearest whole number hides a bit of progress. But, let’s face it, when my goal is over ten pounds away… whole numbers tell the story just fine.
On another note, I don’t think eating back my exercise calories is serving me well. Neither is my weakness for salty food.

/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.

I know this is a late response, but just got round to listening to this piece! It immediately took me straight back to DD's wedding day, she walked down the aisle on DH's arm to this wonderful piece, on that day it was played on the wonderful Chesterfield (famous twisted spire) church's organ by best man who is an excellent organ player. Yes, thank you for that Jeffrey, really enjoyed it. I'm sure that your DW & cousin gave a wonderful performance and was enjoyed by all the residents, families & staff alike xx.2
