Hi, all. I'm new and looking for motivation to keep going after the first week.
Jen; 46; 5'4"
Thanks to a medication I'm on for my mental health and an overeating habit, I managed to gain a lot of weight in the last year or so. Last Wednesday, I stepped on the scale for the first time since I started the med (that is known to cause weight gain) and decided enough was enough. I buckled down and started actually recording my food for the first time in over five years and started walking every day. Now I need motivation to keep going (especially during this trying week of my son's 13th birthday because he wants homemade pizza which is my hugest weakness and zucchini cake).
RND 229
heaviest: 294 (7/5/23)
SW: 287.8
GW (short term): 275
RGW: 285?
7/11 - 287.8 - 1.33 miles - after walking over 9 miles the past seven days, my legs are killing me. I started with a goal of 1 mile every day but quickly pushed up to 1.5+ but after three of those days in a row, I started noticing more pain and stiffness. I'm definitely overdoing it after not walking much for years (thanks chronic fatigue). I'm also getting stress pains in my shins in one certain spot on each side that I've tracked down to the way I walk while crossing over the numerous driveways in our neighborhood causing one foot to be at an odd angle. I've decided to reverse directions every other day so one side doesn't get more of a workout (also considering maybe just walking in the street but there are a lot of parked cars and a bit of traffic). As a reward for my hard work this last week, I had two mini ice cream cones for dessert today (~120 calories total).

65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 229 (my 160th). 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 now in 63 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, 63 days, 6 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!! 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.

Good Luck to all this month, I am always opposite girl...Started off last month with holiday and kept on track and totally fail the next weekend. But my son visited and I just had so much fun cooking with him. So going to try to measure everything while at home, I do find tracking what you eat to be the best method control my weight
R228 07/10/23: end weight 125.8
R229 07/20/23: goals — be less when I end round...resting squats 10 minutes a day, measure my food, do my pt exercises
Day, Weight, Comment
7/11 -125.2 Tuesday may be the best day to start, away after the weekend gives my body a day of normal eating, drinking more water so less bloated. But Monday has to be the worse day to end, so ended last round where I started. This round will be complicate at the end since I need to travel for work next week. Time zone changes, dining out, and a work luncheon. The hotel I am staying at has a wonderful gym, the advantages of going to Texas in July, hotel rooms are a great deal so able to stay at beautiful place.
7/12 - 122.8 Did not see this coming! Time and tim again I experience and hear the stories if you trust the system CICO ( calories in calories out) it will work. Maybe it should be PCICO (PATIENCE!!!) The patience part being the hardest. I have been trying hard to track what I eat, that is so key for me. I was so hungry yesterday afternoon, I came up and made a turkey sandwich- I measured used that Dave's thin bread but still stayed in my calorie allotment but ate what I wanted to eat when I wanted to eat. Sorry to paddle on but just amazed to out of the blue drop... when several times before I was sure i would wake up and weigh less and weighed more. Hope you all have a blessed day.

Round 229
July 11 - 20, 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
7/11 (Maine) – 126.6 (125.6) I guessing that is a result for lots of advil and Tylenol combine with a dinner of restaurant Pad thai. :’( Worked on the contents of my parents condo in Maine for the day. They were last able to travel there in 2019, before COVID. It is another hoarded home (not TV level). The trash and recycling dumpsters on the property open at chest high. Therefore one must open the lid with one hand and lift the disposed items to that height and up and over. I think the lifting with twisting of heavy containers did me in. Once I get through this recovery, it is clear my core needs more attention.
7/12- (Mass) – 126.8 (126.6) One thing I have noticed about myself is that back pain (or menstrual pain when I used to have it) is a trigger for me to eat/binge. Last night was beyond not good behavior, and I am still loading up on advil and Tylenol. Today, going to pre-track my day and get control before I do real damage. Sister is also coming tomorrow to stay with me for three days while working with my parents. That could be a whole other trigger. Lots to get a handle on.

If I quit now, I will soon be back to where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now.
Goal: Shoot for a healthy balance of nutritious food each day, and 80oz of water. Only write down what I eat without measuring or counting calories. I'm trying this out for size. It's not like I can't tell by now what is a healthy serving size. And, I'm hoping it makes me feel like I'm just living life while losing weight and not obsessing over every oz of food. We shall see....
07/11 - 165.6 - 80 oz of water.
07/12 - 166.0 - 56 oz water. I'm really happy where I am this morning and yesterday. I'm back to where I was before I went nuts for a few weeks. Noboby likes playing catch-up, having to lose those same damn pounds over and over. Yay!
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Early Morning Comments
7/11 - Today is the first day of the 10 day challenge. I woke up feeling better this morning. I am waiting on the pediatric dermatologist to call me about my daughters medication. I will then take my meds and head to the basement to do my strength training, in the past if I had an appointment I would have skipped my weight training to go get my work done first with the idea that I would come home after work and do it. That never happened so now I am going to get it done first, even if it means that I work a bit later in store during the day. Choices, it's all about choices.
7/12 - Today is going to be another long day. I have to go out early and get my stores done so that I can be home by 11 so hubby can go out. We are having an energy assessment done on our house to see if we qualify for a federal grant to get our windows and roof done.

I can do this, tracking like this daily really helps me see where I am going. I need to make better mini-goals for the next round. [ /Spoiler]
Previous Round Stats.R228 My 1st Start 190.0 End 190.8 [ /Spoiler]
Previous Round's Comments7/1 - 189.6 - tracked food, Strength training - rest day, 8,488 steps (71,512 left), 9 Floors done ( 71 left), 59 Zone Minutes ( 391 left). 56oz water, under goal. Over all it was a good day. Got out for a 45 minute walk/run with Fraley.
7/2 - 189.4 - bad day. Didn't track, didn't wear Fitbit most of the day 1,894 steps (69,618 left) 1 Floor (70 left), 5 Zone Minutes (386 left). Water not tracked. Smoke and bad air quality was back.. Spent the day baking donuts and watching TV, not great.
7/3 - 190.4- good day, didn’t track my food that well . Strength training completed, 6,902 steps (62,716 left), 5 Floors (65 left), 31 Zone Minutes (355 left).
7/4 - 191.6 - overall good day. Didn’t track food or water I really need to get this on lock. Rest day from strength training, muscles are sore from the other day. 9,443 steps (53,273 left), 3 floors ( 62 left), 31 Zone minutes (324 left). I listened to 2 episodes of the coaches cup podcast. Took Farley for a walk last evening, we didn’t go as far the other day but we got out and he had fun
7/5 - 190.4 - average day, it got a little hot in the afternoon and the smoke was really bad again from the fires. I finished tracking my food this morning. I was over for my calorie count. My water was little low, still need to work on that. 8,752 steps (44,521 left), 4 floors (58 left), 81 Zone Minutes (243 left). Farley and I didn't get out for our walk due to the air quality. I did a new strength training workout. Found it on YouTube Senior Fitness Seated Dumbbell Workout For Beginners | 20 Min, it is part of a workout series Senior Fitness with Meredith. I think that I am going to continue to use this one.
7/6 - 189.8, not the best day. Started out really good, but then the pull of my chair and cheese pleasures got to me. Thinking that maybe I should throw out my chair or at least make it so that I can't just sit easily. I tracked my food this morning, which is better then not tracking but I need to get in the habit of tracking as the day goes. I was just under for my calorie count, barely and in truth because I didn’t track as I ate I probably under represented what I ate. My water intake is still very low, need to work on that. 5,961 steps (38,560 left), 2 Floors (56 left), 36 Zone Minutes (207 left). Farley and I did not get out for a walk last night it was simply too hot for him. I think that I am going to have to start taking him in the morning.
7/7 - 190.0 - Did the second day of my weight workout, again at 2lbs. Thinking that on Sunday when I do it again I will increase my weight to 5lbs. Had a visit from a friend and helped him out with some computer stuff. I didn’t take any time to sit around in my chair until after dinner. My step count was horrible. I did nothing almost all day and man does it show. 3,561 Steps (34,999 left), 1 Floor (55left), 5 Zone Minutes (202 left). Farley and I did not get out for a walk again.
7/8 - 187.4 - Took Farley for a walk, we didn’t go as far because he was puling too much. Hubby's friend came over last night to play pool. I spent my evening watching Grey's. I started watching this a while ago on Netflix and only have 3 seasons left. My step count was not good but it was a stress free day. 6,985 Steps (28,014 left), 1 Floor (54 left), 36 Zone Minutes (166 Left).
7/9 - 188.4, Took Farley for a walk this morning he was much better. Came home and did my strength training video. I increased the weight from 2bs to 5lbs. Made it harder but still doable. Then I started to tackle the garage. Wow we simple have too much stuff. Had an awesome day for my stats. 11,359 Steps (16,655 left), 3 Floors ( 51 left), 81 Zone Minutes (85 left). I am not going to meet my goals for this week.
7/10 - 190.8 Day started out great. Had a doctors appointment. Going back on my anti-depressants for a while. Did some work then came home and went to bed. Just simply not feeling well at all. Hubby and youngest all felt the same way. 5,393 Steps (11,262 left), 2 Floors (49 left), 11 Zone Minutes (74left) I am going to have to work at my goals another week. [ /Spoiler]9 -

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.
We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

This will be a round of food danger for me. We’re going to southern Illinois where everything has added sugar - LOTS of added sugar. I will weigh on the first day and then head to the airport. I will be without a scale until the 20th.
7/11 128.0 We’re on the plane headed to St Louis and southern Illinois. No scale until the 20th when we get back home. I’m also going without my Keto Mojo until then.
7/12 DNW Finally ate at destination and splurge on all things. Margarita and chimichanga, no rice or beans. Because of time zone changes we were on my OMAD schedule.10 -

07/12 - 152.5 - I'm holding on to something.... I'm wondering if TOM is causing me to retain water and bloat. I'm not due for several more days, but bodies are weird and who knows? I was under calorie goal yesterday and had 80oz water. I'm still a tad sore, but not as bad as yesterday so not sure I'm retaining water from that. Today my goal is 90oz, staying under calorie goal, moving every hour, and hitting 10k steps. I did my doggie walk and kettlebell workout already this morning. Lunch will be a burrito bowl with leftovers from Crunchwrap copycats last night plus some black beans (we used up all the refried beans). Not sure dinner yet. Trying to fast until lunch, if possible. Otherwise, 2 hard boiled eggs OR a salmon packet. I will pre-log what I know so far!

Previous Day's Comments07/11 - I'm sore muscle-wise and I went on a very hot fire call yesterday. I'm sure I'm holding on to some water from slight dehydration plus my muscles. I still managed 90oz but not near enough after sweating for almost 2 hours in gear. I don't look as puffy as yesterday so hopefully this bloat will be gone by tomorrow. Today I did 10 rounds of fast run (almost sprint) for 60 seconds, walk/recover 30 seconds before I came to get the dogs for a cooldown walk with them. Dinner tonight will be homemade Taco Bell Crunchwrap supremes that I'm slowly getting better at making. Not sure lunch. Also have to drop off my Jeep to get worked on. Hopefully it's nothing at all. It's a busy busy day for me not even accounting for work.

Hi again, I'm Amanda in Appalachian Virginia.
SW RND 229 - 127.4 (7/10)
RGW - <125 lbs
7/11 - 128.4 whoops, not off to a great start according to the scale. Howeve,r I did strength training yesterday. Then this morning, I e-biked the kids to daycare & myself to the doctor and back and then took the dogs on a 3-mile jog! I decided to train for the local half marathon taking place September 17th. Hopefully that will keep me focused and give me some direction.
7/12 - 127. Phew. I did a little better yesterday but still need to rein it in. I walked the dogs this morning and will lift during lunchtime. I'm finishing up a beginner strength program this week and will need to figure out what's next on that front soon!

Hi Everyone – Looking forward to another challenge, my 5th.
Female, 5’4”, 57 years of age
HW: 210 (May, 2022)
CW: 148.6
GW: still don’t know… hope I’ll know it when I see it in the mirror… chasing a “healthy” BMI first… I suppose I should put quotations around “healthy BMI” because I have read recently that BMI is either a made-up number, or a good tool for docs to use when assessing health related to weight and height, all depending on what you read. In any event, when I look in the mirror, I know that I have fat where I should not, therefore, I need to lose more fat. Whatever my weight is at that point will be my goal.
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 <- The biggest struggle of mine currently. Really need to do this!
Logging Food: 10/10 days (using a food scale every time!)
SW RND 229: 148.6
7/11: 148.4 – had a very early medical test this morning… glad that is over. Work has been extra stressful these past couple of days… the kind of stress where I walk into the office and get called into 3 peoples’ offices before I set my stuff down and boot up my computer… really makes me want to stick my face into a pie or cake or something… but I’m not going to do it. I’ve come so far this last year, I have no desire to undo that hard work. Tonight, I have Zumba after work – YAY! I need to go back to RND 228 and catch up with everyone, but I hope you all are well, hugs to everyone!!
7/12: 148.2 - Phew, thank goodness yesterday is in my rear view! Still stressful at work, and now I need to have ANOTHER medical test done... Geesh. By the time I am done, I think my whole entire body's innards will have been seen by all medical professionals in this area. I am not complaining (much, well, yes, I am complaining), I know they need to check things out and I could be on the other end of this needing to see medical professionals and not being able to get an appointment. I am grateful they are taking the time to make sure I am as healthy as I can be. Take care of your liver people - no joke!

Day, Weight, Comment
7/11 - 184.6
I expected that since we grabbed burgers and fries on our way back mid-afternoon from my eye surgery. Then I slept the rest of the afternoon, and at a variety of definitely not weight-loss foods in the evening. I’ll move toward better eating soon. Off in a few minutes for my post-surgery check up. My vision is really a mess at the moment, with one eye full of meds (like looking through very dirty glass) and the other no longer properly corrected by my glasses. Good excuse to lie around and listen to audio books and podcasts!
7/12 - 184
My eye is a bit clearer today, but still has annoying globs of medication floating around. I can’t drive, and have trouble in bright light even with dark glasses so I’m not walking much, but I can read and knit and listen to things, so I’ll survive. 🧶📚😊 At least I haven’t had the big junk food cravings I had with the first eye!

My 18th Round
Age: 53
Height: 5’3.75”
HW: 345 lbs (Aug 2005)
LW: 135.4 (June 2023)
CW: 141.8 lbs
GW: 135 lbs
Long-term Goal: <145.6 lbs until June 5, 2024 (= Normal BMI for 12 months)
This round's daily goals:
1. <1500 cals 10/10 days –
2. 8.5 miles of steps 10/10 days –
3. 8 cups fluids 10/10 days –
4. Meditation 10/10 days –
5. Stay under 145.6 lbs 10/10 days –
7/11 – 141.8 lbs. Up -- lbs this round and 6.8 lbs to goal; 62/228 miles for July.
7/11 – 141.8 lbs. Up -- lbs this round and 6.8 lbs to goal; 67/228 miles for July. My weight is creeping up and it is starting to worry me. Hubby is still home (likely till 17th) and we have been eating out a lot and having lots of treats! I have not been logging but have continued to weigh myself to keep track of the damage. I think I’m ready to start paying attention again…. Here’s hoping! I finally sent in my resignation to the job that has been making me feel so useless these past several months. I am not leaving government but I will be returning to my “home” position. This is kind of giving myself a “demotion” but I honestly was a lot happier at my old position. Time to make a change. I am taking a medical leave until they figure out the details of when I can go back to my old position. I am really looking forward to returning to my old job where I felt helpful and valued and that my opinions and recommendations were respected and supported. This “learning experience” at the more senior level has been an abject failure, but I am feeling okay with that, at this point. Live and learn, right? Wanted to give a HUGE thank you to those who left me messages of support regarding my 1 year of sobriety. I really appreciated that! The official day is July 28th, so a few more days. 😊 Also, a couple of you left messages of thanks to me for sharing the coping strategies that I’ve learned. I am happy to share what I know! Please private message me any time if you’d like to talk about dealing with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts/ideation, recovery from childhood sexual/physical/emotional trauma, C-PTSD, BPD, fibromyalgia, addiction, coping strategies, breathing techniques, meditation, mindfulness, medication, DBT, etc. I am no expert but I have gone through a butt-load of counselling and therapy over the years. LOL! Sometimes it is just helpful to talk things out with a stranger. 😊

Round 229
MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
ROUND 186 FOR ME.
“Today….I am choosing Me”
MY STATS:

Current New Goals:
Weight:
Short Term Goal: To weigh less at the end of this round than I did at the end of the last round.
Final goal: 145-155. We’ll see how I look & feel when I get there.
Exercise: Move 30 minutes per day rotating activity.
Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 5 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.
COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain.Black is no change.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/10 …..194.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/11 -197.8- (Trend weight 196.5) Traveled yesterday and actually did pretty good while out of town. I watched my portions. I also found a walking park located at the hospital and walked the path ( 1.5 miles) after lunch. However, when I got home I got into my all-or-nothing mode and my self-sabotage mode all rolled up into one. Is it even POSSIBLE to gain 3 ½ lbs overnight? It can’t be all fat! I’ll drink plenty of water, hope for TMI and watch every bite today. I am worth it, I am worth it, I am worth it. I am going to youtube today also to find some meditations often used by @grandmajackie . It will be better tomorrow. I just hope I don’t take the ENTIRE round just to get back to starting weight!
07/12 -196.4- (Trend weight 196.5) Well, that weight just rushes right in but dilly dally’s off, now doesn’t it? Down 1.4 lbs today. Normally that would be good but with an overnight gain {yesterday weigh-in} of 3 ½ pounds, I’m a little pi$$ed. But I guess that’s what happens when you eat pasta for dinner and cereal for a late night snack. I earned it fair-n-square. I started the challenge 2 lbs lighter than I am today so I suppose I'm still chasing my tail. On my way back down though. ( Just trying to stay positive here.)
