3/3 216.9 (-0.0/-0.0) and holding after 5 days of downtrend. I am good with that! We were supposed to get 8 to 10 inches of snow in the next 24 hours. I was ready to be shut in....now it seems we might get a dusting! WOW!
3/4 DNW (-0.0/-0.0) I was good all day until the snack fairy arrived along with her friend Bad Decision Maker....lots of salt and not enough water, the scale would NOT be friendly - so I'm not going to look at it!
3/5 218.8 (+1.9/+1.9) Faced the scale this morning. A couple of days needed to reverse this trend then downward spiral again, would be nice. I need to get meals planned for the week....definitely the key to success!

Lazy dressing is 1 tbsp mayo, 1 tsp brown sugar and 1 oz of lemon juice. Mix it in the bowl and add my 2.5 cups of bagged coleslaw and voila! 3-4 oz of Protein of your choice. I am not a fan of bottled dressings. Artificial sweeteners are not on my plan. (They sneak in as I am still finding sucrolose as I re read labels). TADA...lazy dressing

I'm partial to a pretty tart coleslaw dressing too but I still want some sweet in there.
Bulgarian yogurt, honey, vinegar, lemon juice, and seasoned with salt and pepper. The dressing itself is low fat but the pulled pork that gets mixed with the slaw is definitely not.
Is Bulgarian yogurt better tasting then Greek? I can't handle the Greek flavour no matter what I do to it.
@GirlOnTheRebound It's very different. I had it for the first time about a year ago and now it's on the grocery list almost every week because I dip almost all roasted veggies in it + Sriracha. It's not thick like Greek yogurt and much more tangy.
Also, I was recently introduced to Primal Kitchen dressings. It's expensive but free of the artificial stuff so I keep it on hand for lazy nights.3 -

Recently, DH and I had a widower over for dinner. I wanted desserts for the two men, but knew I did not want temptations for me. I found a bread pudding for two recipe online with bourbon butter sauce (I made with Chivas as the widower loves the stuff). Perfect solution. I felt like a good host, and I kept to my plan for me. Then DD mentioned the above site. She has been using it for a few years. Get treats in, without days of leftovers from a full size cake/batch/pan.5 -

03/03 -194.6- (Trend weight 193.2)
03/04 -193.0- (Trend weight 193.1) Glad to see the bloat gone, but it looks like I’ve got some work to do. I would say that this is my true weight and it is up from earlier in the week. I am pre-logging, sipping on my water and planning some indoor exercise today. I babysat DGS until about 11:30 pm last night. I managed to keep the diet good but no exercise as I don’t have 20 straight minutes for ANYTHING when he is here. My daughter doesn’t work today so the day BELONGS to ME! No excuses! I want to get back closer to the 180’s again. Oh, how I would love to scratch off another decade on the bottom of this post! I need the turquoise GONE and I need to be working down the green!
03/05 -194.0- (Trend weight 193.2) My doctors will not be impressed. I can do better. I started reading my new book today. Hopefully it will keep me motivated.

I had a big blowout at a celebration yesterday. It felt good to relax and enjoy the moment. I am thinking about taking a diet break and eating at maintenance for a while. I think it might be useful to train myself for maintenance since I feel like I can either lose or gain but I am worried I will struggle to maintain.

3/5 217.4 (-.2) Can't be sure but either a monthly bloat or the arrival of Florida humidity has shape shifted me into a balloon animal. Either way I will increase my water intake and trudge along. I swear, in Florida we can feel like a 5 pound gain when the humidity hits lol. 3x rebounder was even a struggle bit got it and my steps done. I am easily going over 9000 daily so after my travels I am going to increase. Another too low calorie day. Come on lady! Get it together!6 -

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 216 (my 147th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.
Goal for this round; again I'm not looking at a specific number, any loss and keeping clear of binges, keep within calories & macros. I can do this but, consistency is paramount, lets do it just for 10 days!!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 taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 130. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

SW RND 216 139.2
3/3 139.2 - no structured walking – child minding little DGS, hence calories 127 calories over; a total of1506 consumed, but made good choices.
3/4. 138.6 - very busy day yesterday, managed to walk 7.13 miles between working working a few hours morning and also afternoon (exam. invigilating), food shopping & them coming away in our brand new caravan. Had quite a few teething problems when we arrived on site, which meant tea was very late and we ended up grabbing cheese and biscuits instead of the healthy planned bbq & salad but didn't let that be an excuse to then totally go off the rails. Healthy stuff will now be tonight's meal!!
3/5 138.2 - not sure how reliable this number is as first time round it recorded 134 which I know is definitely wrong!!!! 13.12 miles walked in the beautiful Delamere Forest, 80% of exercise calories eaten back including a couple of adult beverages to celebrate our new caravan (delayed by 1 night due to those teething problems Friday night!).
3/6 138 – 6.26 miles walked before we packed up to travel home as the forecast rain held off till evening. All calories plus 48 eaten back.

***************************************
3/1 151.4 (trend 153.5)
3/2 151.6 (trend 153.3)
3/3 150.8 (trend 152.9) A good start to the round, it's funny, the last few rounds have started with an overnight whoosh. It makes it tricky to decide on a goal weight but I'll be optimistic and aim for 1 pound. Met all my activity targets yesterday, even if it did mean doing laps of the house for half an hour at 10.30pm to get the last 3000 steps in! I didn't sleep very well, according to my tracker, I woke many times and only got 45 mins of deep sleep. I woke at 4am starving hungry and so got up to have some cereal, but remembered to weigh myself first. I think I've been over training a bit, or under eating, or both, so I've decided to treat myself to a lazy day and not try to restrict my calories too much so I recover a bit.
The gods must have been listening because the family get-together that this introvert really wasn't looking forward to has been cancelled, so no boring clothes shopping for me and I can have a really active day tomorrow instead of a 3hr car ride to make awkward small talk and sleeping on an air bed, phew!
Don't want to jinx it, but I might actually make it into the 140s this round!
3/4 150.6 (trend 152.6) Feeling rough today after a few too many whiskey and cokes last night so my plans for an active healthy day today are out of the window. Why did I do that? So not worth it. Gonna have another quiet day and start afresh tomorrow.
3/5 153.0 (trend 152.7) Really didn't want to post this today, yikes! This is the result of alcohol on Friday night and then we got an Indian take away last night. I had a chicken tikka starter and some poppadoms with chutneys, not a lot, so I'm hoping this is just water retention from dehydration and extra sodium. No exercise for 2 days has had a big impact on my mood. I did manage 2 minutes of planking but totally forgot to do the 3rd minute. I'm really looking forward to getting back to the gym today and seeing what progress I have made on my lifts.
3/6 152.4 (trend 152.6) I had a pretty much perfect day yesterday, in terms of my targets. (Macros, calories, steps, weight training, water, planking, supplements, all on point), so I just have to hold my nerve that this gain is just temporary water weight. My urge to over restrict and over train is strong, but it would be counter productive as I would burn out within days and my metabolism would drop right down.

GIVE ME 10 DAYS – ROUND 216
Round 216
March 3 - 12, 2023
61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
Goal for 216. Have no idea! I guess to keep making progress, and maybe finally sort out and organize those supplements I should be taking. Thinking about it, I guess I could add trying to lose 3 more lb by March 25, when my DD, SIL, and DGS a joining us in the keys. Am likely facing swimsuit time, and losing 3 (or 4) would put me back at a similar weight to last April when they came for a week.
History:
Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, and a DGS. We have three parents, 88(father), 86(mother), 84(MIL) still with us, and I have logically been needing to help them more as they age. I got my act in gear during COVID, somewhat inspired by NOT becoming my parents. I lost 30 lbs and was exercising daily. Unfortunately, I am an “all in or not” person. Selling family home distractions, plus medical incident with my father and all their new needs, became an excuse. A year and a half later, I gained 25 lbs and lost all my athletic improvements. I need to figure out balance and how to make health be a daily priority for life!

Day/Weight/Comment
3/3 – 137.8 Today is going to be challenging. For starts, something happened to my toe last night when I went outside barefoot. Hurts to walk, so I took the morning off with the hopes that it will just resolve. I am not finding anything “in” my foot and examining, it seems to have to do with the nail bed. Then, on top of not exercising today, we are going out to eat (already tracked a tuna poke bowl), and then this evening we are going to the movies and I am planning in for movie popcorn, which I have not had in ages. If I watch myself, all this will work based on calories, despite the lack of exercise. BUT, I will not be shocked if I have a sodium blip tomorrow morning.
3/4 – 137.0 Pleasant surprise. Yesterday did not go as planned, but I adjusted along the way as things changed. At the out-to-eat, there was a gorgeous basket of old bay spiced string fries on the table. I ate half the basket. But I did that with a clear decision that I was trading that for the movie theater popcorn in the evening. Totally worth it!! The poke bowl contents also seemed lighter than the pre-tracked standard bowl, so I re-entered that meal by components, and yes, the bowl came in lower. That difference got me a Yasso bar later in the day, and got that craving out of the way. My numbers all appeared good, but I still prepared myself for the no-walk-estimated-tracking-lots-of-salt uptick. I’ve already pre-tracked today, and the thing that became clear is that I need to go grocery shopping. I am missing some dietary components (like fruit).
3/5 – 136.8 Did walk 5 miles yesterday, despite my foot not yet being right. And had a long day of cleaning up from having new windows installed last week and the home is a mess (plaster and cement dust everywhere). Ate on point. Happy with the loss but want to make sure my behavior is maintainable. I tend to over or under eat.
3/6 – 138.0 Heavy dose Advil will do this, so not surprised. Yesterday, did a typical 5 mile walk with friends (so pace is very reasonable). All was good, and then, without cause, my back started killing me. There is left thigh involvement too, so I know it is that bulging disk issue I have had from time to time. But there was literally no trigger (which I have also had before). Going to shift to Aleve today, as overnight I purposely am beyond the over 8 hr dosage for the Advil. Trying to decide whether to walk this morning or not. I can wait 30 minutes or so to decide.
