@shmmm3 AMEN to eating well for your body!
@39flavours I wear a tracker with a heart rate monitor to more accurately get a “calories burned” figure. I started that when I did WW in 2008. When I was a WW leader in 1985-6, there was no such thing! LOL progress!6 -
SW RND 217
Goals
#1 No added sugar or ultra processed foods and no more than one alcoholic drink per day.
#2 No eating after 9 pm.
#3 Walk the dog twice a day.
3/13 👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE. I'm copying this phrase to my post this round because I too need to reframe. My original "why" is the same as today. Most of my health problems were attributed to my weight, diet, and lifestyle factors that I learned how to control. So, I'm now at a healthy normal weight, but the weight itself was only one part of it. I can't throw out the diet and lifestyle that got me here and got me feeling better even if everyone around me thinks it's too restrictive and too strict. I know how I feel and how things make me feel. Eating and drinking things just to fit in makes for a great time in the short term but I pay for it for days afterward. I have to eat well for my body every day if I want to feel good every day. This round I'm going to cut back on caffeine and be very gentle with myself at maintenance calories. Eat well today and tomorrow morning I'll feel good. Okay. Let's do this again.
3/14 Day 1 of a new experiment. I've changed my food diary settings to show 8-10am, 10-12 pm, 12-2 pm, 2-4 pm, 4-6 pm, 6-8 pm. I almost always eat more later in the day and I'm hoping this will give me a clearer picture of my habits. I'm going to aim to eat no more than 1000 calories per 2 hour window. I usually eat very light as I'm running about in the day and then I'm starving at night. With healthy foods like nuts and dried fruits I can easily surpass 1000 calories in an hour. I need to get out of that habit. If I can aim to keep my 6-8pm window to less than 1000 calories I will be more motivated to eat enough earlier in the day and have a stricter guideline for what constitutes over eating. I'm curious to see how this change plays out.

This is my first day joining the challenge! My goal at the moment is to eat regular meals and not binge eat. I've joined Jane Plan, and am adding in a lot of extra calories as with my current weight the calories would be far too low, but they're all the suggested added fruit/veggies/dairy, plus some Huel. Averaging 1600-1700cals a day, and having the regular meals planned out for me is working wonders to avoid binge eating!

Hi! I’m Amanda, 38F in Appalachian Virginia.
My goals for the round are to:
- fast 16+ hours 9/10 days ⏱️
- Work out 7/10 days 💪🏻
- Eat mindfully 10/10 days 🥗 (meaning no standing in the kitchen while snacking)
- Stay within maintenance range (118-122 lb) each day! ⚖️
R217 SW: 121.8
3/13: 121.8 ⏱️ 💪🏻⚖️- today is the last day of an 8 week bike/run challenge I’ve been doing so I’m going to have to come up with a new fitness plan! Excited and nervous for the blank slate since I’ve been continuously fed my workout plans for the past 8 weeks. Glad to be back with the challenge!
3/14: 121.4 💪🏻⚖️ - I decided to dial it back on cardio and start a gentle running program called "you can run" through Peloton. It starts with walking/jogging intervals and progresses from there. I think going back to the drawing board is good. Simultaneously starting a beginner strength program where you start where you are and progress from there with basic movements. Just a bit of a refocus. Hoping my birth injuries will not flare up if I start doing strength training again. Yesterday I tracked most of the day and totally gave up by the end of the day. I wish I wouldn't do that! I already blew my eating mindfully goal for the round but will continue to try. Girl Scout cookies are my problem at the moment. My husband left them out on the counter yesterday, and instead of just putting them away I grabbed one and ate it! Why?! That is the kind of mindlessness I am trying to squash.

Please join us starting on 3/13 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 217!
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. You have only one hour to edit your post. 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.

3/13: 239.8 (+2.0), BF% 33.4 (+0.5).
3/14: 241.0 (+1.2), BF% 33.6 (+0.2). Daylight saving is kicking my @$$. As was my weekend (3 days of eating/drinking that went outside of my norm). I'm going to continue to weigh-in every day, and I'll post when I can. My motivation is definitely lower when I'm not "doing well" (subjectively), but I'm going to get back into the habit of posting no matter what. It's what's best for me, and it's what I need to do.9 -

@lamafrespirit Don't give up hope! Yesterday morning, after having a perfect day the day before, I came in with a gain. I was disappointed but not derailed. I went on to travel for the day, lots of sitting and restaurant lunch which wasn't perfect by any means, and came in with a nice loss today. It really does take the scale a day or two to adjust. It takes the body a day or two to adjust the fluids and hormones too. It's all part of the journey, the highlights AND the disappointments. Your whoosh is on it's way if you just keep up the good work! Congratulations on your continued commitment.6 -

3/13 - 146.6 Nice way to start a new round! Yesterday was an ab workout + got in a little over 14,000 steps. Need to menu plan & get to the grocery store today as I am out of everything, but looks like a big snowstorm is coming tomorrow, so know the stores will be crazy. Also fighting off a little cold bug, I can not/will not get sick!
3/14 - 146.4 Well, the cold bug got the better of me yesterday after all, skipped my workout and my Fitbit says I slept 13+ hours and poorly at that. I think I'm more on the mend today and going to workout and see how I feel afterwards.

03/12 …..189.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/13 -189.4- (Trend weight 191.6) Rest day yesterday. I stayed under calorie and carb but dinner was late and I didn’t fit in any exercise. I mean, it was Oscar night, right? Anyway, I hate starting a new challenge chasing my own tail but here I am. Good luck everyone.
03/14 -187.8- (Trend weight 191.3) Whoosh! Well there it is….The 7 I’ve been waiting for behind the 18. Now I feel more securely planted in the 180’s decade. A day or two more of this and I will scratch the 190’s off my chart below. I’m very happy today as I had a personal goal I made on Dec 10th to lose 10 pounds by Easter (April 9th). I needed to be at 188.4 . I crushed it!!!! So happy!!!!

03/12 …..189.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/13 -189.4- (Trend weight 191.6) Rest day yesterday. I stayed under calorie and carb but dinner was late and I didn’t fit in any exercise. I mean, it was Oscar night, right? Anyway, I hate starting a new challenge chasing my own tail but here I am. Good luck everyone.
03/14 -187.8- (Trend weight 191.3) Whoosh! Well there it is….The 7 I’ve been waiting for behind the 18. Now I feel more securely planted in the 180’s decade. A day or two more of this and I will scratch the 190’s off my chart below. I’m very happy today as I had a personal goal I made on Dec 10th to lose 10 pounds by Easter (April 9th). I needed to be at 188.4 . I crushed it!!!! So happy!!!!

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.
