    SW136.6
    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/23. 136.6 - no structured walking, my day for childminding 2 little DGS.
    12/24. 137.4 - oh dear, Christmas goodies and no walking showing up already!! Yesterday was a washout; heavy rain all day & preparation for the big day as well as nails and hair appointments.
    12/25 🎄 DNW - Happy Christmas everyone & hope all my friends across the pond are able to stay safe and warm with the massive storm you are having 🤞🙏. Came away for Christmas, brought our caravan up to a site close to DD, DS & their families, so concentrating on making sure I'd brought all the presents etc, that forgot to pack the scales!! I'll still try to keep restrained, but it is Christmas, so when I get home at the weekend I'll see the damage!!. Managed to fit a 5.5 mile walk in after we arrived & set up on site.
    12/26 - DNW - Had a wonderful day with family, all the little DGC were so excited and all presents loved. Managed 4 mile walked before rain came in the morning.
    12/27 DNW - boxing day at DS & family, managed 3 mile walk before and 4 on our return. Plenty more goodies! Sticking to 2 meals per day and trying only to pick in between!!
    12/28 DNW - just short of 9 miles walked yesterday to Hardwick Hall, had a coffee and walked back, didn't quite beat the rain, had a lazy reading afternoon.
    12/29 DNW - 9.09 miles walked after we got a window in the rain !!
    12/30 DNW - 6.6 miles walked yesterday after DH & I childminded our 2 DGS, it was nice for him to spend some time with them too. We travel back home today so tomorrow it will be the moment of truth on the scales!
    12/31. 137.4 -pleased with that, could have been a lot worse!! Now to lose s couple of pounds ready for our holiday inn a week, no picking goodies!! 7.38 miles walked.
    1/1/2023 HAPPY NEW YEAR

    Not a diet, a healthy life style & I'm worth it?? 😄

    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

    12/23 182.6
    12/24 183.6
    12/25 185.8
    12/26 186.0
    12/27 186.8
    12/28 186.2
    12/29 187
    12/30 183.8
    12/31 185 we have an early supper this evening but we’re skipping the big celebrations. I’ll be glad to be past this round, it was ugly but I stuck it out. If I had stopped weighing I think it could have been worse.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    12/23 - 178.6
    Thank you for all the birthday wishes yesterday! Obviously, looking at my weight this morning, I enjoyed myself. That was the plan! It’s -9F here right now, wind chill -35F. Not going out! I am planning to make a pot of jambalaya to warm us up tonight. Yum! To the rest of you in the path of this wicked cold storm, stay warm and safe.

    12/24 - 178.8
    Happy Christmas Eve to all. I’m not doing much baking since we’re pretty much locked down, so not too many sweets around, but I do plan to make a mince pie today and homemade cranberry sauce. I made a really yummy jambalaya soup last night with Andouille sausage, chicken, and shrimp — perfect for a zero and below (F, not C!) day. I’ve also been indulging in a box of beautiful chocolates that DH got for my birthday. If I gain a couple of pounds, oh well, it’s Christmas, and they’ll come off. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Oh, and this little boy is my present to myself — coming home either next week or the week after, depending on driving weather. Looking for a name now. (Lavender refers to his collar color.) 😍

    12/25 - 178.8
    🎄Merry Christmas!🎄

    12/26 - 180
    I knew it. But it’s ok, I decided to enjoy the few treats we had for Christmas. Just one piece each of mince pie left, so I’ll be back on track today or tomorrow. I’m looking forward to turkey leftovers! Yum!

    12/27 - 179.6
    I almost skipped weighing this morning, but decided it couldn’t be worse than yesterday. 😁

    12/28 - 180
    No problem. My calories were low yesterday, so just residue from birthday-Christmas week.

    12/29 - 178.8
    He’s here! We still haven’t found his name, but we’re working on it. No accidents so far (his breeder did a great job with early training) and he’s already asking out. I’m looking forward to a lot of fun with this guy!

    12/30 - 178.6
    I mostly ate smart yesterday. My only goal for the next month is to try not to eat after 7, and if I do, to keep my snack calories below 200. And puppy has a name now — Diamonds One for the Books, aka Booker!

    12/31 - 178.4
    Okay, I’d hoped to be down a bit more for the year, but hey, I’m not up since last year. I’ll take that for now!

    01/01 - 🎉

    @tchnlrn1229 Happy Birthday. I firmly believe you should have cake on your birthday.

    @Skyleen75 I'm with you. This round wasn't pretty for me either and, as you said it, I'm sure it would have been worse if I hadn't stuck it out. Yay for us!

    @Machias1949 I'm glad you're hanging in there on the cruise! I hope you're having a mah-vah-lahs time!

    @SheilaBoneham

    I love the name "Booker". He is adorable!

    Regarding late night snacking, I agree that we can encourage each other. My goal is to not snack after dinner. I didn't set a time because sometimes we're eating dinner at 8:30 or 9 because we work out after work.

    I love Booker, too, especially since I’m a writer. 😊

    I actually wish we ate later. We eat early — 5 o’clock — which was DH’s habit and I didn’t fight it. But when we’re not together, I tend to eat later, and then I don’t want to snack. When I eat at 5, I’m hungry by 9. Too late to change his habit, so I’m not sure what the answer is to that. Maybe tea and bouillon at night instead of popcorn and ice cream! Anyway, I’m trying.

    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.

    **Comments apply to previous day**

    SW RND 209 124.5

    12/23 125.5 Not sure how I missed posting yesterday and instead of notifying me that I hadn’t logged in when I actually had, MFP DIDN’T notify when I hadn’t!
    12/24 125.5 Great Greek for OMAD yesterday because they are closed today and tomorrow. Local DD with whom we have annual plans is sick again so plans may be cancelled. Family tradition of pizza for Christmas Eve dinner since 1977 or 1978.
    12/25 124.5 MERRY CHRISTMAS! We didn’t get pizza. We ate GG leftovers. Now DH seems to have a bug!
    12/26 127.0 We had so looked forward to spending some time with DGGS (6 months) on his first Christmas but sickness at his house and at ours prevented that. Our Dear Neighbor brought us Christmas dinner because Carl is sick. Hidden salt? Sugar? Lots of carbs! Now my throat feels funny.
    12/27 126.5 Can’t say I’m happy about this but looking at the graph, my weight appears to have been creeping up since soon after my husband’s first surgery in September. January 11 is his next follow up and he should be allowed to drive again. Thank goodness!
    12/28 126.5 DH has been sick since 12/23 and couldn’t swallow yesterday because his throat was so sore. Trip to Urgent Care - Not flu, not COVID, not strep. Extremely swollen lymph nodes. Steroid and antibiotic.Hope he feels better today, I’m not feeling great myself. Picked up Chinese on the way home yesterday. General Tso’s chicken for me (so much sugar!) and cashew shrimp for him. He couldn’t eat it so it’s in the refrigerator. I hope he can swallow today.
    12/29 127.5 Not surprised, Ate the rest of my Chinese entree. He ate most of his so I froze the rest as a “TV dinner.” I need to get back on my program. All of my major joints hurt.
    12/30 125.5 Wasn’t hungry, didn’t eat until after 5pm. Only 9 total carbs and joint inflammation seems better already.
    12/31 124.5 After DH’s PT yesterday we ate at Great Greek. They’ll be closed on Sunday.

    12/26: 134.9 -
    12/27: 136.5 - Not surprising given that I stopped tracking food a week ago, but motivation to start again.
    12/28: 135.1 - Yesterday was a good day in terms of exercise and especially eating. Although I had things that had sugar in them (both natural and added, such as orange juice and honey added to cranberries), I did not have dessert for the first time in a while.
    12/29: 135.1 - Went out to dinner last night, but stuck with a salad.
    12/30: 133.6 - Loss is helped by TMI. Got my workouts in and ate fairly healthy.
    12/31: 134.3 - Last day of 2022. I’ve come along way this year - getting to my goal weight and mostly maintaining. My trend lately hasn’t been great, so looking forward to the extra motivation and discipline a new year brings.
