    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 207 (my 139th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal for this round, same as last, is to lose a pound.. 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. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
    End of round 69 134.2 lbs
    End of round 70 133.6
    End of round 71 132.4

    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.
    Stick with the process. It
    DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

    Round 207
    November 23 - December 2, 2022

    Please join us starting on 11/23 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 206!

    Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

    Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

    Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

    Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

    FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE👍👍

    got care free in maintenance and the scale went up one lb at a time. Now I’m turning it around one lb at a time.

    2016- 245lbs
    2019- 142lbs
    9/12/22- 185lbs

    12/3- DNW
    12/4- 180.4 we had a great party Friday and enjoyed a relaxing Saturday. Thankfully everyone ate so much that we have very few left overs. It will feel good to get back to my normal workout and eating schedule.

      ~ My dad made his famous hamburgers and loaded potato salad and there were a few things that sabotaged my eating and my weight last night.
      ~ I didn’t log anything;
      ~ I didn’t drink half the water I usually drink;
      ~ I went a little crazy with snacking later at night all by myself. I think I was doing a little emotional eating and covered up some sadness that I didn’t and don’t want(or know how) to deal with right now. BUT:

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/02 …..197.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
    12/03 -197.0- (Trend weight 197.7) Meals were good. Lots of calorie burn with the decorating for Christmas (many upstairs and basement trips). However, my snacks left a lot to be desired. Happy to see a drop today.

    12/04 -197.0- (Trend weight 197.7) Good meals bad snacks again. When handyman is here it seems I go too long without food and then grab at conveniences. I just realized the pattern. He will be here again today before heading back downstate later today. I will plan my snacks more carefully. This week will be filled with several days of travel which will mess up the pattern of my waterpill. I think at one point it will be 3 days in a row without it. I expect my weight on the scale to be hard to follow this week.

    @enlightenme3 Interesting dory about the dates on food. I sent it to a friend who throws anything and everything away when it hits that date. She had 4 unopened containers of heavy cream that were a MONTH beyond that date which I broght home. They were unopened and I gave each the sniff test. When I used the last one, it was close to 2 months beyond “best by” date.

    And REALLY, if it smells sour, I would consider using it in something appropriate to that. After all, we buy SOUR CREAM!

    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 over 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)
