65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 228 (my 159th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
Goal this round is yet again the same as last; to get back under and stay under 139. Holiday to Menorca is in 72 days, if I don’t crack on I’ll be needing to purchase a bigger size in holiday clothes and I do not want to do that. So, 72 days, 7 rounds at a pound per round should easily get me to where I want to be, only I can do it, I’ve done it before so I can do it again if I knuckle down otherwise before I know it I be up in the 150’s. Cuz that’s how weight just keeps creeping up on one !!! Really try to stay on track. After all I am what I eat in more ways than one, my whole demeanour is totally different when I am happy with myself!!

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!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

7/1 – 137 lbs - Down -- lbs this round and 2 lbs to goal; /228 miles for July.
7/2 – 136.2 lbs - Down 0.8 lbs this round and 1.2 lbs to goal; 10.76/228 miles for July. Well, my weight is coming down again. Maybe this is what maintenance looks like? I am charting a bunch of things in Excel so I can easily look at any correlations between mood, energy, hunger, weight, calories, menstrual cycle, etc. So far I am finding it helpful to be able to easily compare those numbers. I have noticed that my mood goes a bit low every time I weigh myself and the number has increased, so that is something to keep an eye on. I feel like my hunger has been pretty low in the last several days, and my calories are definitely not excessive (except for the one day we went out for Greek food). I wonder if this is the calorie range and exercise level I’ll have to maintain if I want to maintain this weight. My mood was excellent yesterday! I got to go visit a niece of mine who I rarely see. It was so nice to see her and her partner. Plus I got 10 miles of steps in. Had a nice long walk in the morning with the dog and hubby. I also tried a new recipe for breakfast- some kind of Greek yogurt pancakes with strawberries. It was pretty good. So overall it was just a really lovely day. I wonder if that Cipralex is kicking in. Lol. Hope so.

I am coming off a 10-day maintenance round. I’m experimenting with a cycle of doing 10 days at a deficit followed by 10 days at or just above maintenance. Repeat. It’s partly inspired by the MATADOR study but mostly is just my way of making this process sustainable.

I don't know why, but walking seems to help the edema in my ankle. Walking around with one compression sock on while wearing shorts is somewhat humbling. Not all "new normals" are fun.

Speaking of normal, here is one I need to change. Does anyone else ever wake up from a "trance" and find yourself standing in front of your open refrigerator without really knowing why or how you got there?

It is not really as dramatic as that, but you get my point maybe.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Day, Weight, Comment
7/01 #125.2 -Starting up from yesterday, but may have not been truthful counting calories yesterday either- so I need to not lie to myself, this should be added as a goal. Injured myself playing pickleball ( my favorite activity) in May. Going to try playing for a short time this morning, scared and excited. Think I will come home afterwards and do my PT exercises and cardio, once I see how it goes.

7/02 #124.8-Wow, I did not realize that using the food scale is a practice and art easily forgotten. Struggled yesterday, since I cook so much, adding recipes, then dividing, since not sure what the servings were going to be since I was making it up. I am sure it will get easier as I go, notorious taste tester, need to handle that. God looking out for me, only was able to hit pickleball for 5-10 minutes, huge storm rolled in, bummer looks like rain all today. Looks like stationary bike and housework. 4 minutes deep squat yesterday.

@_JeffreyD_ I totally relate to the standing in front of the fridge. It had stopped while I was losing and pre-tracking my days well. Now, I am maintaining, not tracking as well (but better than when not doing MFP), and drifting a bit. For me, THAT leads to the standing-in-front-of-the-refrigerator-what-am-I-lookinking-for behavior. Most of the time, that leads to something I regret. Thanks for making me articulate. Maybe that will help my behavior.

Round 228
July1 - 10, 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

7/1 (Mass) – 126.0 (Renpho 125.6) After two days of misbehaving, yesterday was going to be good. Day was tracking well. Dinner last night was us experimenting with cooking pizza on a pizza stone on the grill. Bought too much dough. Made too much pizza. Ate somewhat too much pizza. Felt like lead and was asleep before 8 PM. Today is leftover Pizza……

7/2 (Mass) – 124.6 (Renpho 124.4) Pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But all tracked and now all gone. Total calories for the day were 1752. I keep keeping my target calories low (set at 1500 right now). I need to invest some effort in finding what a correct number is so I can aim for it instead of restricting and binging. I am staying between the 124 and 126 despite my behavior, so that is a minor “win”. Will keep working on finding what works for me in maintenance, and maybe restricting and overeating is ok as long as I monitor overall.

Shoot. Opened the door to go walking……finally. Now it is raining. :’(

7/02 - 153.0 - Scale blipped down to 151 range before settling higher. I do feel a tad puffy from the garlic salt at dinner, but not as bad as before. I'm also still very sore in the hamstrings despite setting aside time to stretch yesterday. I will do so again today. We had a freak storm form over us last night bringing much needed rain. My intended morning walk with the pups was also canceled due to continuing rain this morning. Oh well. Tomorrow is a scheduled walk, weather-permitting, and my kettlebell workout. Likely another lazy day today, especially with all the rain. If so, I'll keep reading like I did yesterday. It's nice to read my own books during the day and then my Book Club book (for that month) before bed.

Previous Day's Comments

7/01 - Sodium blip. BF wanted out of the house (don't blame him) so we went and got Japanese at a new place. This one was definitely more mom-and-pop shop, homemade versus the other place which has more of a chain restaurant vibe. I did really well with pushing my plate to be taken away after piling my trash on it once I was full, a HUGE NSV. I'd normally feel obligated to pick at it while others ate and try to finish it to get my "money's worth". I didn't leave hungry, my taste buds were satisfied (even happy as I was craving sesame chicken), and I didn't feel sick from overeating. That was my money's worth despite there being more food on the plate. Not sure plan today other than SD has a "volunteer" job (they get paid but it's just to help increase staffing for a one-day event) from 1-9. Then that place puts on fireworks from 9-9:30 so we're hanging out at the fire station (upon request) in case of need (so dry with these record temperatures). LittleBro will come with us and SD will meet us there (it's maaaaaybe 1/4mile walk from the place she's working) to watch the fireworks together. Once I post and catch up reading, I'll stretch my poor sore hamstrings out while I read as everyone is still asleep.

Hellooooo! I totally forgot to post yesterday to finish round 227....but basically it was a wash. I maintained in a two pound range through the whole month of June. Came to the conclusion that this summer is going to be tricky to keep to any type of routine so I'm ok with just trying to stay where I am until fall when we settle back to normal at home. We leave for our UK trip on the 9th so I won't be able to finish this round...but will keep this part of what little routine I have going until then.

Female - 51yrs - 5'5"

7/1 - 166.0 - Happy Canada Day to all the Canadian 10 Dayers!!!
7/2 - 164.4 - I blipped down to 164.x last round too...maybe I've got it in me? Over 16000 steps and 45 flights of stairs yesterday from walking to work and running around the store and stock room. I now have two days off in Muskoka...Since I started this job I haven't had a day off to enjoy up here, I've been running back and forth to home. I think we will go for a kayak before lunch and then hang out on the dock. It's going to be a hot one.
