My goodness you have sooo much going on. Moving is so stressful. Glad that you are moving and starting the new job all before your wedding, so that you will have that all out of the way before your big day : - )

My tomatoes are finally beginning to change from dark green to lighter green with one becoming orange-ish. We had such a late start this year, everything is months behind.
So do you make your own gnocchi with potatoes from your garden?2 -
I am Dawn
5'2", 61 and 5/6th : - )
I have been on MFP since October 2018.
I am close to 10 pounds heavier than this time last year.
Hoping to drop weight this month, but have extended company coming, an old friend who is a chef and cooks amazing meals. So much for my grilled chicken with veggies or salad. I will do my best.
I gained 0.6 last month
Monday August 01 - 139.2 - Using last month's EW. A holiday in my Province today, but not a food holiday. I am working.
Tuesday August 02 - 138.6 - Hoping to continue to see drops before my company arrives on Saturday so that I have a "cushion". Feeling pretty lean this morning.
Wednesday August 03 - 139.0 - I had planned a cleanse for later in August, but Wild Rose has been discontinued. It is a bunch of herbs and a food plan. I do know the food columns of what to have 80% of each day etc. The herbs are organ specific. I will be looking into what else is available. Does anyone have a good kit that they use?
Thursday August 04 - 138.8 - Going to keep it very light for the next couple of days before my company arrives. He is a chef and I expect to be eating more (and richer) food than usual starting Saturday for 8 days
Friday August 05 - 139.9 - Quite surprised at this jump up, I had a very good day exercise and food wise. Going to try to take it in stride, actually feeling lean this morning.
Saturday August 06 - 138.1 - That was the last of being "good" for the next 8 days. I am going to try not to be rude and sit at the kitchen table at my laptop reading and writing into these forums while I have company (in a couple more hours from now). I will be logging and weighing, just not sure if I will make it on here or not.
Sunday August 07 - 136.2
Monday August 08 - 138.3 - eating amazing meals
Tuesday August 09 - 138.8 - Surprised (but glad) that it wasn't more, especially since I was up and weighing at 5am. Getting stuff done before my company wakes up : - )
Wednesday August 10 - 139.8 - Really not too bad considering the rich food that I have been eating
Thursday August 11 -
Friday August 12 - 139.8
Saturday August 13 - 139.8 - Wow, usually my weight fluctuates like crazy, but staying at the same number is cool, especially after eating so very well all week with my Chef friend here whipping up all sorts of rich foods accompanied by wine.
Sunday August 14 - 141.3 - Well, it caught up with me. Lots of good leftovers over the next few days, I will try to keep the quantities low. - I see that I had my dates mixed up. Fixed them
Monday August 15 - 140.1 - I still have some really good food left, but will keep the portions smaller, and no wine or cocktails.
Tuesday August 16 - 139.4 - Still working on leftovers, tonight should be the last. I am going to have pesto that was made out of things in my garden with some Konjac pasta (10 calories for the whole pack), a bit of chicken mixed in and a salad. It would be nice to see that 136.2 from Aug 07th again soon.
Wednesday August 17 - 139.1 - It seems to be coming down. I am working at it.
Thursday August 18 - 137.7 - That was very nice to see this morning.
Friday August 19 - 137.8 - Felt quite lean this morning. Working a split shift today and expect to eat more calories than I have been this entire week.4 -

Thank you both! It is very stressful. The problem is, I am also getting married on the 3rd of September and I'm afraid the dress I got won't fit
@TinaLeigh67 My daughter is also getting married on Sept 3rd, and I am also worried about my mother-of-the-bride dress fitting. But it is WAY WAY more important that your dress fit than mine. Let's do this between now and the 3rd. Together. I just know you will be absolutely STUNNING no matter what!!!!! I just want you to feel good too. Let's go!3 -

Low-carb bread with chunk chicken breast with mayo mixed in and walnuts thrown in to make a yummy low carb sandwich. The scale still dropped.

@BittersweetVita - Thank you for answering my question!
@FastFriend - Yay! You are here and I look forward to your progress
@TinaLeigh67 - Amazing job! Thanks for keeping up the thread and making me want to come back.
Hello! My name is Mina.
Just started today as I moved to a new environment and realized I gained another 15pounds while I dealt with family vacation, move across ocean, and kids out of school.
I need community, accountability and I am here to find joy and wins in the process.
Anyway,
My height is 5'8
Starting weight: 166
8/7: 166.0- This is first thing in the morning as I get ready for the day. I'll be posting this weight with a short log.
8/8: 166.2
8/9: 165.8
8/10:165.2
8/11: ----
8/12:165.0
8/13:165.2
8/14:164.8
8/15:164.6
8/16:164.5
8/17:163.6
8/18:163.2- Exercised for the first time in a long time! Was mindful with what I put in my mouth first.
8/19:163.0- A bit discouraged since I ate so good yesterday and moved my body
Who am I kidding, thinking I'm gonna see results in a day! Weekend is hard for me to keep up my plan! 6 -

So do you make your own gnocchi with potatoes from your garden?
Haven't tried to grow potatoes yet. The garden is mostly heirloom tomatoes, peppers, squash, tomatillos, cucumbers, and then we have berries and lots of herbs.2 -
Height 5'4" Age:52
Ultimate Goal Weight 127-134 lbs.
March Start Weight: 194.8 lbs.
April Start Weight: 189.4 lbs.
May Start Weight: 184.1 lbs.
June Start Weight: 181.8 lbs.
July Start Weight: 175.4 lbs.
August Start Weight 169.4 lbs.
August Goals: Running 3 x per week, Body Strength Workouts, Mindful Way of Eating, Daily Accountability
August 01: 169.4 Stuck at this exact number for like 5 days, I'm patient, eventually it will drop and reflect the work I am putting in. Going to resume running today for the 1st time in almost 1 month (wasn't able to run most of July due to Covid/Covid recovery), will be interesting to see where my running fitness is.
August 02: 169.2 Successful day yesterday! Went on a short run, felt good, but will need to slowly build back up my mileage to where it was + did a full body endurance workout with weights.
August 03: 168.9 Yesterday was a Yogalates workout + a walk. Dinner was a bit heavier (calories still within my range), so pleased to see a loss today on the scale!

August 13: DNW Been out of town and got back late last night and slept in this morning so will weigh in tomorrow. Expect to be a up with a few vacation pounds but will work to be back down in the next week.
August 14: 171.0 Not too bad (I'd hoped to stay under a 3 lb. gain, so sucess!) My goal is to be back in the 169s before next Sunday. Went for a long walk yesterday, today is technically a rest day but will be very active getting things done around the house/yard.
August 15: 170.1 Vacation weight is coming off! Delicious meal at home last night with herbs, tomatoes, peppers, and zucchini from our garden mixed with some red lentil pasta.
August 16: 169.4 Yay, back to my round start weight! Yesterday went for a walk and did a Pilates workout. My running and more strenuous workouts are on hold for the moment due to some inflammation in my knee, it's always something:) Need to meal plan and grocery shop today, husband is making salsa as we are in tomato overload from the garden.
August 17: 169.0 Didn't get my lunch time walk + weights workout in on my lunch hour yesterday because was tied up on work calls and then was off to run errands for 3 hours after work. At least I got some steps in doing that! Grabbed Chick Fil A on the way home but just got nuggets and made my own chicken Ceasar salad when I got home for dinner.
August 18: 168.4 Pretty happy with the number on the scale this morning! The temps are much cooler this week, so felt like cooking yesterday, took advantage of some of the tomatoes & herbs from the garden and made a pomodoro sauce for a baked gnocchi dish. I ate the serving that fit into my calorie allotment but truthfully, I wanted to eat the entire pan! I didn't, so that's a win!!
August 19: 168.9 No reason for this, just normal body fluctuations. But I do feel bloated today (which is not usual) so maybe that's it. Excited it's the weekend, I'm throwing a party on Sunday for my daughter, so much to do!

MFP starting weight: 149.2 (3/30/21)
July end weight: 130.0
July results: +1.4
August goal: maintenance of 128-132
My goal this month is to maintain weight as well as increase activity. I will be moving at some point this month so I will be doing a lot of packing. Have been waiting for a definite start date on a new job, but they are still going through the process of doing background checks and such. I currently work for the State and have been accepted for another position with the State. Unfortunately, they won't just open my personnel file and retrieve the information they already have, they are doing it all over again from scratch. It has been over a month since they began. It's very frustrating. Anyway, somehow I am hoping to find time to increase workouts/walks while packing and preparing for a wedding.

Hello again, everyone!!
My name is Ana.
I've struggled most of my life with almost always feeling very fat. There are pictures of me that prove me right, but there are others that prove me wrong.
2009 was the year in which I felt better about my physical appearance but in 2011, after my husband passed away I reached my highest weight (180 lbs). By 2018 I had worked my way to 140lbs and maintained it for 2 years. I was feeling very good even though I still had to battle with negative thoughts and avoided looking at myself in the mirror. Last year I learned that the pandemic and depression related to my father's death brought me back up to 156.4 lbs.
I gave myself a year to work on my health and even though I am not where I hoped to be, I am satisfied with my efforts. For the next year I will work on maintaining a fitness schedule and on relating to food in different ways... I want to eat to live instead of live for eating. I am a little scared because the first weeks of maintenance I did OK, but the last 2 weeks of July were a huge gain. On the other hand, my clothes still fit.
Wish me luck!
08/01: 137.2 (+6. 2) A huge gain last month. Still recovering from vacation gain. Determined to get back to a cleaner way of eating and to exercising more frequently and focusing on building muscle just because it burns more calories, which means I can eat more 😂
08/06: 137.0 (-0.2) That's just funny and disappointing but I know it's all my fault. This week I had restaurant food 3 times so there's a lot of salt in my system. Even though I ate within my allowance 2 times, yesterday I also succumbed to tortellini around 10pm. Not good at all. I can see it lodged in my belly.
I'm trying to get back to working out so I started a Chloe Ting 28 day challenge and today will be day 6. Also, my vacation days are over so I am looking forward to healthier eating and crazily enough, to meal planning. I see brighter, closer to130lb days ahead 🙆♀️
08/13: 135.8 (-1.2) Much better. I know it can be even better, but I'm still struggling with late night snacking. Also, my birthday was last week and let's just say I had a good taste of four desserts 👉👈
I've been exercising 5 times a week and even though the type of exercise I'm doing doesn't particularly burn a lot of calories, it seems to help with digestion.
On the brighter side, I went shopping for pants yesterday (finally!) and I was pleased to see that everything I picked fit either perfectly or too big. I've never had that happen to me before, what an experience! I am super excited that fall is coming. I want to go back to walking to work every day. If only it would stop raining so randomly...
08/20: 132.1 (-3.7) Pretty happy to see the vacation weight is coming off!! I wasn't the healthiest this week since it was my daughter's last week home from college, but I tried to keep it within allowed calories and exercised often. It also helps that my intestines cooperated today lol. Looking forward to next week when I'll feel free to make healthier choices. It is also the last week for the Chloe Ting Challenge I started so I'm happy about that too. In the meantime, pizza tonight for dinner, but I'll try to be good!!
Sending love to everyone

August Goals: Running 3 x per week, Body Strength Workouts, Mindful Way of Eating, Daily Accountability
August 01: 169.4 Stuck at this exact number for like 5 days, I'm patient, eventually it will drop and reflect the work I am putting in. Going to resume running today for the 1st time in almost 1 month (wasn't able to run most of July due to Covid/Covid recovery), will be interesting to see where my running fitness is.
August 02: 169.2 Successful day yesterday! Went on a short run, felt good, but will need to slowly build back up my mileage to where it was + did a full body endurance workout with weights.
August 03: 168.9 Yesterday was a Yogalates workout + a walk. Dinner was a bit heavier (calories still within my range), so pleased to see a loss today on the scale!

August 13: DNW Been out of town and got back late last night and slept in this morning so will weigh in tomorrow. Expect to be a up with a few vacation pounds but will work to be back down in the next week.
August 14: 171.0 Not too bad (I'd hoped to stay under a 3 lb. gain, so sucess!) My goal is to be back in the 169s before next Sunday. Went for a long walk yesterday, today is technically a rest day but will be very active getting things done around the house/yard.
August 15: 170.1 Vacation weight is coming off! Delicious meal at home last night with herbs, tomatoes, peppers, and zucchini from our garden mixed with some red lentil pasta.
August 16: 169.4 Yay, back to my round start weight! Yesterday went for a walk and did a Pilates workout. My running and more strenuous workouts are on hold for the moment due to some inflammation in my knee, it's always something:) Need to meal plan and grocery shop today, husband is making salsa as we are in tomato overload from the garden.
August 17: 169.0 Didn't get my lunch time walk + weights workout in on my lunch hour yesterday because was tied up on work calls and then was off to run errands for 3 hours after work. At least I got some steps in doing that! Grabbed Chick Fil A on the way home but just got nuggets and made my own chicken Ceasar salad when I got home for dinner.
August 18: 168.4 Pretty happy with the number on the scale this morning! The temps are much cooler this week, so felt like cooking yesterday, took advantage of some of the tomatoes & herbs from the garden and made a pomodoro sauce for a baked gnocchi dish. I ate the serving that fit into my calorie allotment but truthfully, I wanted to eat the entire pan! I didn't, so that's a win!!
August 19: 168.9 No reason for this, just normal body fluctuations. But I do feel bloated today (which is not usual) so maybe that's it. Excited it's the weekend, I'm throwing a party on Sunday for my daughter, so much to do!
August 20: 168.1 In major party prep mode, should get lots of steps today but also need to make sure I make the time to get my workout in. Not making myself a priority is how I gained this weight to begin with. Have a great one, everyone!

My name is Tina, Height: 5'6" Age: 55
MFP starting weight: 149.2 (3/30/21)
July end weight: 130.0
July results: +1.4
August goal: maintenance of 128-132
My goal this month is to maintain weight as well as increase activity. I will be moving at some point this month so I will be doing a lot of packing. Have been waiting for a definite start date on a new job, but they are still going through the process of doing background checks and such. I currently work for the State and have been accepted for another position with the State. Unfortunately, they won't just open my personnel file and retrieve the information they already have, they are doing it all over again from scratch. It has been over a month since they began. It's very frustrating. Anyway, somehow I am hoping to find time to increase workouts/walks while packing and preparing for a wedding.

8/19: 131.0 (130.0 trend) Should have followed everyone's advice and packed the scale Oh well, incentive to be careful the rest of the week
8/20: DNW - Moving day. Rushing around trying to get last minute stuff packed before moving truck gets here. This will be my 5th move in 4 years. This will be the last one unless moving south at retirement
8/21: 127.8 (129.4 trend) shocked to see this number but shouldn't be. Only ate one meal yesterday. It was Mexican but with all the mouth apparatus's that I have right now, I can't eat the chips so that saves me a boat load of calories! Body is sore from moving boxes onto and off of the moving truck, so I'm sure I burned many more calories than I ate. So glad this part is over. Now to unpack and organize, start new job in two days and marry in two weeks. Going to be a crazy time!5
