Thanks @DaffyGirl88 ! I've been around, just mostly in the Hogwarts & GoT challenges!
@deepwoodslady I'm so sorry to hear about your heart problems. I really hope you can be set up with a treatment/prevention plan soon. My mum went into heart failure earlier this year, with atrial fibrillation (AF). It was scary for a little while, but she's doing a lot better now!6 -
Hi all! I used to do this challenge a while ago but stopped...but now I'm back!
I'm Christie, an Aussie, 36yo with a 3.5yo son at home. I work full time as an accountant, so I'm chained to a desk for 9 hours a day! Last year, I lost 30 lbs with the help of this challenge and a few others here on MFP. But around 9-10 months ago, I had a bit of a breakdown mentally. I think I had put too much pressure on myself and so I dropped out of every group I was in on MFP, except for one. Unfortunately, I have since gained over half of that loss back. So I'm here again, taking baby steps to improve my health more every day.
Highest weight: 138.3kg (304.9lbs)
Current weight: 130.5kg (287.7lbs)
SW: 130.5kg (287.7lbs)
*I check in on MFP in the mornings, so I'll be putting my weigh in from that morning, and updating the previous day's calories/exercise/notes then*
Day | Weight | Calories in | Deficit | Exercise
7/6 | --- joined 7/7 | 2,244 in | 405 deficit | 10 mins walking | Overall, was mostly a good day. I wanted to get more exercise minutes in, but ended up taking my son to the park instead. Aim for more tomorrow.
7/7 | 130.5kg (287.7lbs) | 2,332 in | 390 deficit | 15 mins of a Darebee workout + 5 mins walking | Mostly a good day, but didn't eat a proper dinner. Hubby had eaten lunch late (3pm) so he wasn't hungry for dinner, and our son demanded mac & cheese, so I ended up having ham & cheese on toast for dinner...not a terrible option but way more calories than I'd budgeted for! Still had a good deficit though, so I'm happy with that.

I accidentally missed the start date. Is it too late to join this round?
If it is, it's totally okay! I was asking just in case

@marsano you can do whatever you want but it’s nice to be able to look back and see your trends! I use MFP mainly on the app on my iPhone and it won’t let me copy and paste on MFP so I keep my post in my notes on my phone and add to it everyday and copy and paste from there. Be sure to flag the post in the upper right hand corner so you can find it easily every day! Welcome! Happy MFPing!

7/6 101.2 Well that's a nice little drop! I did get my jillian michaels workout in and a 5km jog in yesterday. Also did some work on my allotment! Food was a bit over the 1800, I had an ice cream!!! But macros were fine, water was a bit low too! Bit more attention on what goes in my face tomorrow. I also seem to have hurt my right knee so might not workout today, well maybe just a cycle!
7/7 101.6 hmm... not impressed!!! But I did expect it as the drop was just due to a mild stomach bug. Didn't do my jm workout, just 19km cycle. Going to rest my knee again today, just a 5km jog to get in! Focus on the water again!
7/8 101.0 ended up doing 7km instead of 5km. Food was on point, 1852 cals. Macros were ok, bit low on protein, 3 L of water so all worked well.

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 192 ( my 124th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round is just to lose, I want my Commonwealth Volunteer uniform to feel a little less “snug” ! No binges, keep within calories & macros.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.

I am counting & weighing everything so I will trust that will happen soon! See you next round.

7/6 / 164.6 / Sun is shining so I hope to take my lunchtime walk outdoors today. Also want to get on the Peloton tonight.
7/7 164.4 / Today feels like a bit of the calm before the storm. Starting tomorrow, I have a lot of corporate events for the Calgary Stampede, and in less than two weeks we're on our way to Ontario to visit Brad's family. Oh, and my brother is coming tomorrow to stay for a while too! Lots to do. I did get my long ride in on the Peloton last night and will try to ride again tonight if I can fit it in.

Visited Calgary Stampede 16 years or so ago when we went over to Canada for a fortnight with DD & her then boyfriend ( now her DH) who were working their gap year out there. Really enjoyed it and still use the phrase "are you man enough to wear pink" in memory of the Breast Cancer awareness/research fund raising! Hope your events go well.6 -

@deepswoodslady – Sorry to hear the results of your tests. Very distressing. When I first found out about my heart issues 6 years ago my ejection fraction was 15% to 20%. So, I really couldn’t do anything. Just walking to the parking garage was a struggle. My ejection fraction is now up to 50% and I feel tons better, so don’t lose hope. You can probably get back to normal with medication etc. I am sorry to hear about the previous heart attack. I don’t have that issue so I don’t know what problems that will cause or anything. In addition to the heart failure, I also have an electrical issue where the electrical signal to beat is blocked from getting to the left ventricle sometimes (LBBB). So, I ended up with a pacemaker/defibrillator that they implanted in my chest. It has really helped me feel better and my heart get better. You probably won’t need all that or they would have told you by now. I freaked out when they told me that I needed the pacemaker/defibrillator. But now it is fine. Just hang in there and things will get better! At least you caught it before the heart failure stage (unlike me)!

ROUND 191
SW: 174.4Day/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.
7/2: 174.0 calories were good. it had rained all day, so i never went on my walk. weighed myself in the afternoon, after already eating. today i will be hooking up with my sister and her family. we are going to a dinner theatre so i am expecting a gain for tomorrow.
7/3: 175.4 that's a huge move in the wrong direction. i went 700 calories over my allowed amount yesterday... shameful. i will be going on a cruise in 2 weeks, i am already anticipating the work i will have to do when i get back from that.
7/4: 173.6 of course there's a cookout today. it shouldn't be much of a problem through
7/5: 173.8 yes, i went over my calories again, 545 this time. if i could have gotten some walking in like i swore i would get back to things wouldn't be so bad. unfortunate for me, it's been nothing but rain and looks like continued rain for about another week.

7/8: 174.8 obviously going in the wrong direction, and i'm not sure why. i've been watching my calories. it's either the walking or water intake. it's been raining, so i haven't been walking. because i haven't been walking, i haven't been drinking as much water. i'll work on that

@deepwoodslady07/07 …..202.0 ….. (Trend weight 203.4) No sleep last night. Feel horrible. No TMI day 2. I did have the water pill yesterday. Some weeks it ends up back to back because I take it every other day, so not today. Zapped of energy. I just want to lay on the couch but two handymen are coming. Cardiologist’s RN called yesterday and said I have 50% ejection fraction. Should be 60-75% so I am what they consider on the borderline for heart failure. That’s on the left ventricle issue. New issue showed up on the rest test. Lower part of my heart has scarring on two of the walls which indicates I’ve had a heart attack. We don’t know when. Good news is that blood is still flowing all around the bottom so no real bad damage at this point. Bad news is that over time the scarring will cause a stiffening that will make it hard for the heart to beat. July 12th is the appointment when we discuss treatment plans if any. Could be much better, could be much worse. All I know is that I absolutely cannot breathe when exerting myself.
sorry to hear of your health issue. you will be in my prayers.

Female, 5ft. 6 in.
Age 58
Akron, Ohio
OSW: 186 (March 2018)
Maintenance: 140-145 (December 2018)
My 153rd Round!
I’ve let stress derail the past few years of maintaining my weight around 145. The past few months I’ve been inching up above my maintenance weight of 145 and I am now fully 6 lbs. over. I can feel it in my clothes. I’ve been here before many years ago and if I don’t stop it now, I’ll be back to 186-188 lbs. The only way for me to be successful is to meticulously track my food and stay engaged with this challenge.
Good luck to all of you this round!After losing 12 lbs. I was stuck at 174lbs. for a couple weeks until I found this challenge.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/06 - 151 - I was home on a vacation day yesterday. I took a walk and tracked my food.
7/07 - 151 - Stayed within calories and took a walk after I got home from work.
7/08 - 151 - I was hoping for a little drop before the weekend, but this just means I will have to be extra vigilant to stay on track.

For the fruit, I fill a big bowl full of berries, cut-up apples, etc., and mix a very small amount of honey and lemon juice to taste (preserves the fruit), and stir it into the fruit. It's a very popular item at parties. You can munch (mostly) on your own snacks!
Best of luck with the temptations @_JeffreyD_ & what a great idea @RockinRobyn672!

I am female and 66 years young from northern California
Round Goal: I’d love to get to 135, Then I’d only have 10 lbs. to go. 10 lbs. sounds like so much less than 12 lbs.
UGW: 125
SW: 136.8
Day/Weight/Comment
7/6 - 136.8 – Today we are rounding up volunteers to trim part of the hiking trail. Not a lot of walking more bending and stooping.
7/7 – 136.4 – Yesterday I decided I need stronger legs so I can get off the ground more gracefully. I did 2 sets of squats. Sore legs today. Off for a walk today with a serious hill.
7/8 – 135.8 – Yay, getting closer to my round goal of 135.

7/6 - 162.9 (+.5) - Bloat & holiday damage💧176 oz., 🥗under, 💪strength training only, 👟7,696, ⛑+4 (162). What a long day it was! Still plan on sticking with fast (mind, body, soul) and hope to have the energy to squeeze in some cardio.

Volunteered at the community garden in the evening and feeling it in my buns and lower back (a lot of squatting& bending over). Not my usual hammie’s but shows me where I need to focus some workouts.

@deepswoodslady – Sorry to hear the results of your tests. Very distressing. When I first found out about my heart issues 6 years ago my ejection fraction was 15% to 20%. So, I really couldn’t do anything. Just walking to the parking garage was a struggle. My ejection fraction is now up to 50% and I feel tons better, so don’t lose hope. You can probably get back to normal with medication etc. I am sorry to hear about the previous heart attack. I don’t have that issue so I don’t know what problems that will cause or anything. In addition to the heart failure, I also have an electrical issue where the electrical signal to beat is blocked from getting to the left ventricle sometimes (LBBB). So, I ended up with a pacemaker/defibrillator that they implanted in my chest. It has really helped me feel better and my heart get better. You probably won’t need all that or they would have told you by now. I freaked out when they told me that I needed the pacemaker/defibrillator. But now it is fine. Just hang in there and things will get better! At least you caught it before the heart failure stage (unlike me)!
@karilbrandt 15 - 20% is so scary! I am thankful to you and all the others who have shared their prayers, well-wishes and those (like you) who have shared their personal stories with heart failure. It is so so so relieving to know there are medications that can improve the ejection fraction. I also have an electrical problem LBBB so I have to wait and see what will be done about that. I am so afraid to exercise now. I used to dance to burn calories etc. Now, I'm just too afraid. Can you tell me what you do about exercise?

Day/Weight/Comment
07/05 …..205.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/06 …..203.2 ….. (Trend weight 203.6)
07/07 …..202.0 ….. (Trend weight 203.4) No sleep last night. Feel horrible. No TMI day 2. I did have the water pill yesterday. Some weeks it ends up back to back because I take it every other day, so not today. Zapped of energy. I just want to lay on the couch but two handymen are coming. Cardiologist’s RN called yesterday and said I have 50% ejection fraction. Should be 60-75% so I am what they consider on the borderline for heart failure. That’s on the left ventricle issue. New issue showed up on the rest test. Lower part of my heart has scarring on two of the walls which indicates I’ve had a heart attack. We don’t know when. Good news is that blood is still flowing all around the bottom so no real bad damage at this point. Bad news is that over time the scarring will cause a stiffening that will make it hard for the heart to beat. July 12th is the appointment when we discuss treatment plans if any. Could be much better, could be much worse. All I know is that I absolutely cannot breathe when exerting myself.
07/08 …..201.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.2) Wow! What fatigue yesterday. Laid down on the couch at 4:30 dozing off and on (I don’t take naps normally). I probably only ate about 500 calories. I got up to go to bed at 1:30 AM and was up at 6:00. I only got in 2100 steps so my scale didn’t go down much. I felt so bad I even took an at-home covid test but it was solidly negative. Sore and in pain today from all the laying down. My body is not used to that! I’m still feeling woozy. I hope it gets better. I am babysitting DGS today. I am being scheduled for a CTA scan which is less invasive than a heart cath. Waiting for the call on date and time.
