1/12 200 (today was good for eating healthily and within my range, but exercise was lacking. Zoom meetings this afternoon and evening were a bit of a drag, and now I am tired.)
1/13 199 (today was good as far as diet, but other than climbing stairs at school I didn’t get much exercise)
1/14 199 (Good day for exercise, ate some chocolate instead of nutritious food, but stayed under my calorie limit!)

Hi, I’m Christine 😊
1st Round Joining
Age 53, 5’5”
Heaviest- 345 lbs (prior to gastric bypass in Aug 2005)
Current Weight- 157.6 lbs
Goal Weight- 150 lbs (TBD)
This looks fun and encouraging! Thanks! I am looking to make new MFP friends for inspiration! Especially looking to connect with those who have had gastric bypass and struggle with regain.
This week's daily goals: 90 grams of protein, 8 cups fluid, take vitamins/supplements, chill out on the ice-cream sammiches!
1/13- Took supplements! 116 g of protein! 7 cups of fluid and 1 ice-cream sammich.
1/14- 157.0 lbs, took supplements, 94 g of protein, 7 cups of fluids and 2 ice-cream sammiches. That is one ice-cream sammich too many, but this challenge is really helping me to stay more accountable! It was bitterly cold and I didn't walk much. Had intended on doing a YouTube walking video (I really like Grow With Jo) but I had a friend over for coffee and so I ran out of time. Hope everyone has a great Sunday.😊

Day/Weight/Comment
1/12 DNW - walked 11.1 miles yesterday.
1/13 DNW - started with all good intentions of a better choices day which went to put in the evening, we were booked into the steak night, massive juicy delicious steak, half would have been plenty for me, was served with chips which I regretfully ate the lot & then cheesecake which to be honest was quite tasteless, so why did I eat it!! Felt bloated all night 😱😪. Walked 11.7 miles.
1/14 DNW - made a concerted effort to eat more consciously yesterday, made better choices and left rice in my plate when I was satisfied. Walked 11.86 miles. Last full days holiday today.
1/15 Today we leave to catch a plane home, tomorrow I will see the damage, sad I'm leaving the sun, happy I'll be getting back to normal eating and tracking the weight gain. 12.65 miles walked.

Back after almost a year off, lovely to see familiar names and faces! Belated happy new year to everyone 😀
Thanks, @quiltingjaine , for all your hard work to keep this running, hats off to you!
So self- sabotage got the better of me, and here I am, nearly 2 stone regained, urgh. My body aches from the extra load and my self esteem is in the pits. I'm not going to let this go on any further, I know exactly how to do it, it's easy really... just log everything, get active and stay accountable.

****************************************
1/13 : 165.0 Well, here goes... just trying to get back into the habit of logging everything this round and being more active x
1/14 : 163.4 Ok that's a good start. I had salty Chinese food on Wednesday night and had just got back from a flight so I probably had a lot of water weight. Also just finished totm so hormones are a bit wobbly. Didn't manage to get out for a walk yesterday. We're due rain and snow all next week so I really need to make an effort this weekend to get out. Went to the supermarket and stocked up on the type of food that I was eating last time I was successfully losing weight. I like to include things that come in individual packages like cheese portions, salami, crackers and cereal bars, alongside things that are bulky but low in calories like soups and salads. The packets are usually more expensive and lower in nutrients/ higher in salt etc but they help me to not feel deprived as they are tasty and feel a bit naughty and I am able to easily control my portions. Switched to decaf coffee recently and it's been a revelation, I am so much less anxious and am sleeping so well. I have been drinking alcohol heavily for far too long so cutting that out is going to be very hard but logging will help, as will exercise and seeing progress.
1/15 : 162.2 Back to where I was, many moons ago in round 160, my first round. Hey ho, at least that gives me a fair idea of how long it will take me to get back to where I was when I fell off the rails- about 5 months if I work hard. Yesterday was challenging as I was home alone and bored so trying not to mindlessly graze. I managed to stay within my calorie goal but still no exercise. I need a kick up the bum to get started. I struggle with self conscientious and social anxiety, so leaving the house just to go for a walk is a battle. Getting to the gym seems impossible right now, but I need to overcome this somehow for my mental and physical health to improve.

Hello all! I’m Amanda from Michigan. I set goals in 2023 to eat more fruit and veggies and fiber and to increase meditation. I’m doing well on everything but the meditation. I did very well on these 10 day challenges over the summer and fall but am facing a major health crisis this year and am just struggling to stay on track.
Good luck to all!

Round goals:

1/12: 120.8 💪🏻⏱️ My treadmill works now!! Whoop! I did a walk+run yesterday and ran faster than I’ve ever run before. That thing is going to get some use, for sure. In the meantime, I signed up for a Peloton bike challenge that requires riding 3x per week. I’m suddenly less enthused for that! Today I have plans for a dog walk and a treadmill run.
1/13: 120.4 💪🏻⏱️ Not bad for the day after I promised my 3-year-old McDonald's for dinner! I got myself a quarter pounder with cheese (sandwich only; rethought after I asked for fries and a Coke with it) and cleaned up the kids' fries from their Happy Meals. Glad I went that route! I am already not fasting today because I made the kids bacon, eggs, and pancakes and could not resist a bacon strip. Healthy days over here!! Ah well. Tonight I'm meeting my husband a couple hours away to see our favorite band and staying in a hotel away from the kids. I'm excited but I'm sure I will overindulge. I'll try to do a Peloton ride during the workday today but I really have to get the house/instructions ready for the overnight sitter! And, yanno, do my job. Happy Friday everyone!
1/14 - 💪🏻⏱️ DNW
1/15 - 125.4, ugh. I was way off track yesterday and Friday. Glad I stepped on the scale this morning to motivate myself to stay in control today. We’ll be watching football (Go Bills!) and going to a second birthday party today so I’ll have to be careful. Hopefully I can do a workout first. It’s hard on weekends when the kids are home from daycare 😅

I've even been doing the outdoor run/walk workouts, which are great (love their playlists and coaching). I will look for the same bike challenge. I'll also try to find you on Peloton. Is your name similar as for MFP?
My name on there is BlueRidgeMomma. Yes I am obsessed with all the content! I do a lot of the outdoor run/walks too. I really love the sleep meditations as well. I spend a lot of time on the app!

I haven’t had refined sugary sweets since December and don’t want to break this run just yet. We are going to fly to the west coast to see our other 2 sibs next month and I’d like to feel my best.

1/12. 73.8. Really struggled yesterday with dinner. I have had a long week at work, and then had to take my son to hockey practice yesterday. When I got home I was starving and my daughter wanted Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese is a weakness of mine. I ended up having the worst dinner I have had in the last 10 days and I woke up feeling bloated and yuck for the first time in 10 days. I hate this feeling and will try to hold on to the memory as just another reason to not eat like that anymore.
1/13 73.5
1/14 73.7
1/15 73.7 Had a really bad eating day yesterday. It was my sons birthday, and I had no will power around the pizza and cupcakes, and was exhausted after hosting a birthday party to a bunch of 6 year olds, so didn’t exercise. Then went to bed really late and slept until way to late this morning. But I am using yesterday, and all of last week for that matter as a learning experience and moving on. I am getting right back on track today. I have already tracked my food, have decided not to touch the cake at the family birthday party for my son, and I am prepping my food for work next week. I will not let this small little bump derail me this time. On another note, a hige win for me is that I have now been officially cigarette and alcohol free for 15 days!!

It was just too hard to for me to concentrate on my weight over Christmas. All is settled now so I'm ready to jump back in. I think my weight in December was 146.0, and I'm at 146.6 now so the damage wasn't too bad.

Day/Weight/Comment no food after dinner 💚
1/12 - 176.2
I was really hungry last night, and not just in my head, so I had a banana and broke my streak, but that’s ok once in a while. Friends coming for dinner tonight, but I have my day planned to minimize damage. That should work!
1-13 - 176.6
Friends didn’t make it last night so that dinner is postponed, but we ate pretty much the same things as planned, including key lime pie. It was good, but enough sweets for me for a while, so we may end up tossing the remains of the pie unless DH snarfs it. He’s not much of a snarfer, which is why he’s been thin all his 87 years. (I’m not that old — child bride 😁). Anyway, back on track today and, hopefully, for the rest of the round and beyond. I’m really appalled, though, at how low my calories have to be to lose and maintain. Other than yesterday, I’ve had to go to 1100 or lower to lose. That’s not much food.
1/14 - 176.4
Slipped up on the after dinner snacks again—had a half piece of the key lime pie. But I did walk out in the cold a fair amount—have to tire out the puppy!
1/15 - 177.4
I hate when that happens! Probably time lag from Thurs and a little slippage on the no after-dinner snacking. I’ll be reminding myself today! Off in a few minutes for tracking training with the pup and a couple of friends with their dogs. That’s worth a couple of miles of walking. Planning salad for lunch and Tunisian shakshouka (eggs poached in spicy chopped tomatoes) for dinner. Nice low-cal day. Now to stick to it! Happy Sunday, everyone!

1/12 / DNW / I won't have access to a scale until Friday, be back then!
1/13 / 176.6 / Happy my good choices on my business trip led to weight loss.. felt in the zone. I have a night out planned tonight so I'll need to stay focused on continuing my good choices.
1/14 / 174.2 / Up to go out a mini road trip with friends that will include a brunch. We go to this place every two months and I always get the same meal so it's pre-tracked. Makes life easier, and I like it!
1/15 / 174.6 / Today I'll focus on exercise around watching the Bills game. We know what our food plans will be so I will pre-track to stay on track.
