    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 219 (my 150th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine you are a star!
    Starting this round at the same weight as last. Goal for this round; I really need to continue to reverse this increasing trend, again I'm not looking at a specific number, any loss and keep my binge free streak going, keep that April Fool’s dunce’s hat in the corner! – be mindful when I’m tempted! Keep within calories & macros. I can do this but, consistency is paramount, let’s do it for just 10 days as the reward is great!!
    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. A healthy lifestyle has to be a permanent way of life.

    SW RND 219 139.8

    4/2 139.8 – 8.6 miles walked. Starting this round at the same weight as last. Want to try to be at a lower number by the end ! Good food day yesterday, stuck to pre-logged plan again. Feeling better physically & mentally, just a couple of pounds makes such a difference!
    4/3 139.8 – 12.69 miles walked, pre-logging first thing worked again for me. Hoping the scale will start going down soon.
    4/4 139.4 – 9.7 miles walked, hungry yesterday; all exercise calories eaten back.
    4/5 140.4 – 8..04, ate late last night at an Indian restaurant with friends, just had to guess at calories, but expected sodium overload, drank a pint of water before bed & still woke up with a ranging thirst in the early hours! Had eaten light earlier on in the week to compensate.

    100-day Binge-free Challenge starting March 31….=1 day.
    ⭐️= 5 days ****

    4/6 140.4 – 6.11 miles walked; lots of other commitments. Not a good eating day, a mini binge.
    4/7
    4/8
    4/9
    4/10
    4/11

    I'M WORTH IT !! 👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a PERMANENT HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

    @RenaPink11 I also am 2 days without TMI. My chia puff has failed me.😱😵‍💫

    I started taking magnesium citrate since Monday and so far no dice. A few weeks ago I did a probiotic w enzymes and oh wow it made me so much worse and bloated. 😳🤨😳🤨


    A really gentle but effective way of relieving TMI is to take 1-2 tsps of Epson salt (pure not scented). It pulls water into the intestines. If it doesn’t work after 6 hours do it again.


    It will create a gentle but irresistible urge so don’t stray too far from a toilet!

    I wish I could be normal. LOL this has been a life long problem for me. I think I’m going to go back to last month and look over my foods, bc it seemed to be a lot better then. But I’m down for trying epson salt! I work from home tomorrow so that sounds like a plan to me! Thanks 😊

    @renepink11 I too was chronically constipated, which lead to permanent hemorrhoid issues (could put a description in a spoiler if you want). I am on miralax "for life" according to my colorectal surgeon. I do no start a day without a scoop of miralax in my morning coffee. I do do other things as well that keep me regular.

    @RenaPink11 Yes, it occurred to me last night that I haven’t taken any of my supplements in 4 days and magnesium citrate is one of them. If I weren’t so lazy I would fill my pill boxes. I do 8 weeks at a time when I do them.

    @LisaPower123 Epsom salts are also magnesium. I’ve even read that soaking in a bath with then, magnesium is absorbed by your body.

    @shmmm3 I DO love my cheese and heavy cream but I seem to have the best results when I eat carnivore. Beef is my favorite - even as a kid on the rare occasion of a family trip, I wanted a hamburger for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Now I skip the bun because I know it messes with my appetite. Even eating too many of the good veggies (low carb) will cause me to not lose. My faves are asparagus, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and spinach.

    I use to put miralax in my coffee every morning too. I think I will go back to that bc it did help. Yes, I am now experiencing hemorrhoid issues that started about a year ago. For whatever reason, I stopped the miralax and when I changed my foods, it seemed to get better but not permanently. I go next month for a colonoscopy so I'm wondering if they will say anything. I feel like part of the reason I don't go daily is bc of hemorrhoids blocking the exit!
