6/21 - 183.6
I’m making some progress against the encroahments with my 3-hour weed & grass pulling workouts. Whew! I make it all bearable by thinking of the calories burning and muscles building. 😁 It does make me hungry, but I’m mostly sticking to the plan. All good.

6/22 - 183.6
Other than a piece of apple pie a friend brought over, yesterday was perfect. I did lots of yard work and even blocked a lace wrap I finished knitting a few months ago (pic below — color doesn’t show well, but it’s a dark brownish purple). I’m planning a workout this morning of moving a few plants that are in the wrong spots and not thriving. It’s not supposed to be so hot today, so that’s a relief. 90F yesterday, but forecast high today is 74. Sounds good! Enjoy your day, all!

@Machias1949 You’re an inspiration! Congratulations to you!

I was down to 122 in 2018, but then, between the aftermath of a very restrictive elimination diet (I’m still angry at the doctor and her dietitian for that, and at myself for not sticking to the 2# rule as I resumed eating “normally”) and Covid restrictions, I regained 60+ pounds. You’ve obviously been better at getting yourself back on track — I’m going to remind myself of your success when I feel inclined to go off track.

pezhed · June 2023

Hello again! I'm Amanda, 37, 5'2", in Virginia
SW Round 227 - 125.4
GW Round 227 - 120-125

6/21 - 125.4. Almost assuredly another false start here. This weekend I have my friend's bachelorette party on the Jersey shore, then next Thursday we head to western NY to visit family. I would have liked to have been in tip top shape for both of these trips, but my actions have not aligned with that desire. My sweet tooth has been off the charts. We need to stop buying overly processed food. It started with a camping trip a couple weeks ago and just spiraled from there. Hoping a few days of accountability will help set me straight!

6/22 - 123.8. Okay, I'm in my new maintenance range! Always amazing to see retained water drop off on the scale. Going to just do strength training today as part of my beginner strength program and get ready to drive 8 hours in the rain tomorrow. I probably won't get a chance to check in again until Monday, so I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Hi Everyone – Looking forward to another challenge, my 3rd.
Female, 5’4”, 57 years of age
HW: 210 (May, 2022)
CW: 149.4
GW: still don’t know… hope I’ll know it when I see it in the mirror… chasing a “healthy” BMI first

Goals: Continue working on same goals from previous round because it seems to have worked!
Cardio: 8/10 days (only days I struggle with this are Sunday and Wednesday due to lack of time)
Bodyweight Train: 3/10 days (I can do this on Sunday and Wednesday, but fitting that elusive 3rd workout in has been a struggle)
Logging Food: 10/10 days (using a food scale every time!)

SW Round 227
6/21: 149.4 – Another crazy stressful work day. Did not get a workout in. Did eat my stress – not totally off the rails, but certainly enough that I need to pull back and be careful the next few days.
6/22: 149.2 – Today is again crazy at work, but I do have my 60 minutes of Cardio Dance tonight that I am heading to after work. I always feel better after I sweat it out. My best friend from high school is in town this weekend and called me to get together on Sunday. That will be fun to catch up with her – eating at my house, I am going to cook the meal for us so I can control the food. I am looking forward to Friday so that I can feel like I can breathe this week – what a whirlwind. Physically, I feel good. I am so much better off than I would have been just a year ago… I really need to get this stress under control though. LOTS of yoga breathing happening over here! I have logged my food, and I have all my fruits / Greek yogurt for snack, cooked my lunch and packed it up this morning. I am strong, I can do this.

Yesterday completed all goals and dropped again! It will slow soon I'm sure. Feeling sore today from a peloton boot camp yesterday. Goal for today is a nice long walk.

Had a cast party for my kids theater production and ate far too much so I'm happy with what the scale said. I went on a long walk, missed my vitamins and meds though, not sure how I managed that and definitely need to do a better job hydrating today

@SheilaBoneham - that is a gorgeous wrap! So pretty...

@tiabirdie56 - I have found that some "decades" of weight take significantly longer to travel through than others. I suppose our bodies are comfortable with where that is. It took me many months to get through the 160's.

Machias1949 · June 2023

@SheilaBoneham I wish it was all My willpower but 5 pounds of my weight loss was due to medication for Hypothyroidism-once my thyroid was back to a normal rate I shade, pretty quickly, 5 pounds.

I tried to figure out a reasonable weight loss of about 1 pound a month. I figured that way I would not get discouraged nor try to starve myself, which is always a really bad idea. I also made no major changes to my diet (no fad diets) and I ate pretty "normally" with the few exceptions I have listed. Good luck with your journey.

@BringIt2023, I agree

@tiabirdie56 - I have found that some "decades" of weight take significantly longer to travel through than others. I suppose our bodies are comfortable with where that is. It took me many months to get through the 160's.

I absolutely agree. I have several bodyweight "setpoints" I came to that understanding many years ago, so I don't talk about stalling very much. I just have to stay with the process until my weight budges. There will be another after this.

6/22 - 153.8 - TOM dropped some bloat but the garlic salt from dinner last night has me feeling more bloated than I was before! Hopefully it'll drop off here soon. Got a walk with the pups this morning before it got awful hot. Been moving quite a bit all morning between work, running a grocery errand for dinner and prepping dinner (marinating chicken). Luckily it's a fairly slow day for work. Unsure if Thirsty Thursday is happening but I hope not. I have no room in my calorie budget for anything else and I don't want the temptation. It's so easy to mindless snack on whatever people have ordered for the table. SD is sick so I made us both an herbal tea to help fight whatever it is off. FamWife started feeling it the last couple days of vacation and SD was the unlucky one to get it. Hopefully I can avoid it!

Previous Day's Comments

6/21 - Some bloat has been banished. Still no TOM so likely not the hormonal bloat that has been banished. At least that means my efforts to re-hydrate are not in vain! I did splurge on a couple mojitos yesterday before realizing just how many calories/sugar are in them! Oof. I'll stick to vodka+soda+lime wedge from now on if I decide to drink (or wine with dinner). Not sure today's dinner but it's something related to chicken as that's out to thaw haha I'm likely to repeat yesterday's lunch with the last of the leftover chicken from Sunday mixed with some frozen steamable veggies from the deep freeze I found. I'm feeling pretty good about hitting all my habit goals today, I hope everyone else feels just as good about theirs!

6/22: 121.0 ⬆️
Had the best time on my vacation/visit family trip.
It wasn’t about fitting in everything/seeing all the sights: it was a slower time for me to do what I enjoy and to see family that I haven’t seen in almost 10 years.

I was about 115 the morning of my flight.
Today is 121, so bloated and gained 6 pounds, which I will get rid of, plus a few more for my August birthday goal.

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 6 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/20 …..196.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

06/21 -196.6- (Trend weight 196.2) I Stayed the course yesterday. Ankles feel so tight without the waterpills. I can feel fluid retention that I can’t do much about. I’ll try pushing water today again. I had my truck repair appointment out-of-town at the dealership wrong. It wasn’t Monday, it is tomorrow. Luckily my daughter has her head on straight and we didn’t go. LOL. Today I take my teen grandson’s for their haircuts at my salon. Lunch afterwards. Since I’ll be out of town tomorrow for that 7 hour repair and 3 hour total drive, I’ll skip lunch today and just watch them eat. Good luck everyone this round.

06/22 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) I traveled today for the truck repairs. I hit the coffee hard before I remembered to weigh and didn’t have any time to post before travel. It’s been a long day. Tomorrow’s scale will likely be a morale zapper as it is usually up after travel. I may skip weighing and just check in as I’ve found that looking doesn’t change anything. It may even make it worse. So we will see.

Heaviest weight: 188 lbs December 2022
Current Weight: 170 lbs
Ultimate Goal weight: 145 lbs

SW Round 227
6/21 170 lbs. ~Took two of my young children for a walk today, burned a few calories. Came back and did my "just run" app, today was 20 minutes total of running with a 3 minute break between. Ran 5.5 mph for the first 10, 5 mph for the second. I was pushing hard! Resisted the desire to snack (the pirouline cookies were staring me down) Happy with myself!
6/22 170 lbs ~ Felt defeated today. 😕 Woke right up when my alarm went off at 6:15 am, got my strength training done, felt great! Got my shower in, ate breakfast. Got the family ready to go (including the dog) and headed off to our store. Then I went and donated blood, this was my 6th donation. I was fine until the phlebotomist couldn't find my vein (this never happens) and I got really lightheaded and may have passed out. So, I couldn't donate, I was so upset with myself. Had to eat a bunch of snacks so needless to say, I didn't stay within my calories. 😕

Round 227
June 21 – June 30, 2023

61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).

SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW current MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
GW Maintaining between 124 - 126

Continuing to figure out maintaining, and to work on best nutrition and exercise.

History:

Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, a DGS, and second GS on the way. 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. Hubby and I seeing our family home and downsizing 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

6/21 (mass) – 124.8 (Renpho 124.6) Back to middle of my range, which is good. Kitties had their wt checks this morning and chubby cat is up and skinny cat is down. Wrong direction for each of them. I did get on the IC4 yesterday. Only 30 minutes, BUT I got on it. I have to remember that I have these options in the house and need to take advantage of them. Today is time again with my parents. Medical runs with my father. Tomorrow is also my parents. Legal runs with them both.

6/22 (mass) – 124.4 (Renpho 124.4) Good new. Tracking good yesterday. Pathetic 15 minutes on the IC4, but that is more than zero exercise that today may bring. Today is picking up my parents, long drive to lawyer. Let them address their needs. Get them home. Return to my condo and pack and clean to go to maine. Walk the cats, then drive a half hour to my daughter’s for a family celebration of my MIL’s 84 birthday. Head back to the condo again. Finish packing and loading car. Drive to maine, unpack and settle in. Nothing bad in it, just busy-ness.

6/23 (maine) – 123.6 Wishing I had brought the Renpho travel scale with me to cross check. Number seems too low to be logical. Yesterday had been a wild day, small breakfast, then after dropping home my parents (which included medical drama to, from and during the legal meeting) I snagged one of their chocolate bars for lunch. Getting home, I saw the now hard remains of the melted chocolate from cooking for the birthday party. I proceeded to eat all that. Then had Chinese food at the party (controlled but not tracked), and then triffle, which was unfortunately two small servings. No exercise yesterday. Ironically, I was starving at 10 PM last night. Anyhow, the numbers will shake out and show the reality with time. Good or bad. Note: the only other time I have seen "surprise" 123.X numbers were on my scale in maine as well.

6/21 140.8 (trend 142.3) Glad to see yesterday's new low weight is sticking around more or less. I've set my goal this round to maintain, but in reality I'll be glad if my trend weight doesn't go up. Didn't leave the house yesterday as I was packing and organising all day, plus, as musicsax mentioned, we had torrential rain for a large part of the day. Eating was ok, although there was a bit of stress-snacking going on, but I stayed below, just! Woke up relieved to see my fake tan hadn't been a disaster, phew! I'm a notorious over-packer and am now trying to decide whether I can fit the iron into my suitcase or if I can bear spending the next 9 days a crumply mess...
Having pizza tonight at a local restaurant, as it's the only place that will still be open when we get to the apartment, so I'll eat light today to allow for it. Old me would be looking forward to some fast food at the airport but I'm going to be good and bring a small snack instead.
Yesterday was no walk or gym, calories good, alcohol free.

6/22 DNW The pizza last night has left me very bloated and dehydrated today.
The flight was delayed so we ended up eating at 11.30pm which meant sleep was not great.

6/23 DNW We cycled to the fish market and bought prawns, clams and monkfish, then to the fruit and veg market and bought loads of stuff, the veggies here are massive! It was a good chance to practice my Portuguese. I made arroz de marisco, which is similar to paella, very tasty! I've never cleaned prawns or cooked clams before, so it was good to learn a new skill. In the evening we cycled to the beach and played frisbee, then to the marina for a few drinks. Lots of wine so a bit of a sore head today.
Steps were low as I was on the bike most of the day.
