65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 230 (my 161st). 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 52 days, I still need to crack on & lose a few pounds I’ll be needing to purchase a bigger size in holiday clothes and I do not want to do that. So, 52 days, 5 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.

7/20 140.2 – disappointed with this as round final weigh, but it it what it is! 10.98 miles walked, 5/8 exercise calories eaten back. 0.6 pounds up on the end of last round, five days binge free, need to not let that allow me to ease up !!
SW RND 230 139.2
7/21 139.2 - No structured walking as childminding little DGS, so 168 calories over, but no binge, in fact 6 days binge free, let’s keep it that way.
7/22 139.2 - no structured walking as raining in-between running errands 🥲. Managed to just about break even with calories, but carbs 18 over.
7/23 139.2 - 5.22 miles walked yesterday, it was cut short by the rain - again ! Calories 391 over; it was a strange afternoon, went to a living wake bbq for lunch/dinner, so choice of low calorie food was limited and he had brought a large box of cider for us all to drink, I did indulge in half a pint to have a drink with him; it was all about our friend.

Round 230
July 21 - 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
7/21- (maine) 122.0 True surprise. I ate slightly over my maintenance target yesterday. But went down further. Got to Maine last night. Father is still in the hospital, at least through the weekend. Mom is in assisted living and I will keep trying to check in with her. Daughter, SIL, DGS, and their cats are joining us with our two cats in our 2 bedroom condo starting today. I will cut my time in Maine short and leave after my daughter heads home. This is her birthday weekend (32 years) and last travel before giving birth to our second grandson. Tonight, we are also entertaining a friend. He became a widower 9 months ago (suddenly) and his 80th birthday was 4 days ago. I have two small cakes for tonight so we can celebrate both birthdays.
7/22- (Maine) 122.8 More logical number. Made it through last night’s dinner. Did not track perfectly, but well enough.
7/23- (Maine) 123.4 Had a case of hand and mouth disease yesterday. Gave up trying to track. Since I lost unplanned weight last week, I do have that buffer going on that helps to cover for days like yesterday. Daughter and family are here through today. Cutting my trip short to be back to help with my mother. My father’s return from the hospital keeps shifting out. It was first Friday, then “through the weekend – sun or mon”, then Monday absolute, now Tuesday. They are looking to get him stable before home. My concern is when he get home and his tendancy to make up his own rules. Given his medical condition, he should not be inventing his own rules like “my mitochondria need to recharge so I am not going to walk today” when he has been told that getting up and walking is critical for him. Argh!

Hi Everyone – Looking forward to my 6th challenge.
Female, 5’4”, 57 years of age
HW: 210 (May, 2022)
CW: 147.4
GW: still don’t know… it will be a journey… first stop, “healthy BMI,” second stop, “look good in mirror.” I sincerely hope I get there.
Goals: Continue working on same goals from previous rounds
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!)
I will be away for the end of this challenge at a family wedding… which doesn’t bode well for me at the end. I also will not be weighing in for those last few days. I am very anxious about being able to stay on track… with obvious indulgences because it’s a wedding… there will be cake… and champagne… 2 things I thoroughly enjoy. Also, no structured work out schedule. It took me from 2/27/23 until 6/15/23 to get out of the 150’s and I really don’t want to have to do that again.
SW RND 230 – 147.4
7/21: 147.5
7/22: 147.2 - Early morning Zumba put a smile on my face today! Youngest DS birthday lunch tomorrow (he turned 25 yesterday), and I just baked a cake. Ugh - it smells really good. Might have a little slice tomorrow, we'll see. Gonna make a beef tenderloin and roasted potatoes (I'll have a sweet potato). I feel good, strong, ready to take on the temptation.
7/23: 147.5 Lots of work to do to get ready for lunch today. I haven't had beef in so long.... probably 2 months, I hope I don't overcook it. My middle DS, who is 28, has CP and what that means for him is he is physically totally dependent on help (quadriplegic) and cognitively he is scattered anywhere from a 5 year old to about 12 year old with thoughts, ideas, speech, etc. He was up around 2 am to let us know that he was keeping an eye on the cake overnight so that nobody would steal it! I'll be drinking lots of coffee today - LOL!

7/21 - 183.6
Low calories yesterday, so time lag from lunch out with friend on Wed. I’m more determined than ever to get rid of this stupid weight. I had DH make a video of Booker training in scent work, which he has just started (he’s a genius!), and while the dog looks great, I cringe looking at my big sloppy belly. I’m trying not to beat myself up about it, but at the same time I have to stop making excuses and pretending I’m thin as I was in 2019 (~130). (I am still angry at the doctor and dietitian who put me on that very restrictive, very low calorie elimination diet—I know it screwed up my metabolism, leading to massive weight gain and the need now for really low calories to lose. Vicious cycle.) Anyway, I do not want to be fat in photos when Booker starts competing! Plus I have a bunch of nice skinny pants I want to fit back into. 😊
7/22 - 183
I had a really good day yesterday, calories right where I planned, and my only snack was almond milk, frozen fruit, collagen smoothie in the evening, so very healthy. Yay me! I did some garden work and had a nice walk with the pup. Does knitting count as exercise? 😊🧶 I’m revising some regular menu items to lower the calories. This morning I made my homemade, fresher, healthier version of egg McMuffin, and on mine I replaced the cheese with a slice of tomato. It tasted great. Tonight I’m making a cherry tomato galette, and plan to eat only a few bites of crust to get some of the pleasure without all the calories. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get myself under control, but I feel like I am, finally. Wishing you all a great Saturday!
7/23 - 183.4
I don’t get it. I’ve kept my calories low — ~1200 — the past 3 days. How in the heck can I not be down a little and in fact be slightly up? Crazy. I know the daily variations don’t always make sense, but still. Oh well, I’ll just keep on trying. Not always easy — DH wants to order out Italian today. Aaack! I need to see if they have a reasonable salad, or maybe just order for him.

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.

R229 My 2nd Start 189.6 End 188.6
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.
7/11 - 189.6 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. strength training I completed, 8,074 steps, 4 floor, 39 Zone Minutes
7/12 - 189.6 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. 7,170 Steps, 1 Floor, 22 Zone Minutes (Fitbit was charging while I was working)
7/13 - 188.6 Today is a day off for me. I am going to take my daughter for some blood work and myself for mine. I have an intake meeting at 10am for myself and then we get to go to Costco for camping food. 5,206 Steps, 5 Floors, 3 Zone Minutes
7/14 - 188.0 Just didn't feel great yesterday. Woke up and seemed fine, went out to water m plants and the smoke hit me and I started to fell like crap. Took my daughter to Walmart for things for her camping trip and came home and did nothing. 4,198 Steps, 3 Floors, 14 Zone Minutes **bad air quality did not do strength training
7/15 - 188.6 Really bad air quality yesterday. Did as little as humanly possible.

@justanotherjen13 I’m curious about where you are located that 70F was warm. I know it’s all perspective. I think it was 94F when I got up at 6:20 here in the desert.

I have to take my Fitbit off or yes I get 'knitting miles' too !!
@musicsax It seems to me that these companies that make step trackers would consider making an attractive ankle bracelet type strap. I can’t tell you how many people have asked me jokingly if my Garmin is so my parole officer can track me.

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

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....
07/21 - 167.8
07/22 - 166.2
07/23 - 166.0 - Weighed late yesterday and today, so may jump up when I weigh again at my normal time. I'm getting used to not obessively counting every oz of food. It's good for my OCD personality because I usually get nervous if I'm not being exact. That's a very big win!!
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

7/23 - 154.3 - I am bloated! Hopefully a few days of eating better, drinking lots of water, and gentle movement will bring this back down. Yesterday (Saturday) was the only day I didn't drink a ton of water but Thursday and Friday I was out in the heat so it was all undone no matter how much water I drank. I wouldn't be surprised if I was very careful every day for the remainder of the round and just barely get back to starting weight. I'm setting my round goal to be 152.x for this reason. Today I'm focusing on drinking water and being mindful of my eating. I'm planning for tomorrow to resume normal workouts again for the rest of the week.

7/21 - 183.6
Low calories yesterday, so time lag from lunch out with friend on Wed. I’m more determined than ever to get rid of this stupid weight. I had DH make a video of Booker training in scent work, which he has just started (he’s a genius!), and while the dog looks great, I cringe looking at my big sloppy belly. I’m trying not to beat myself up about it, but at the same time I have to stop making excuses and pretending I’m thin as I was in 2019 (~130). (I am still angry at the doctor and dietitian who put me on that very restrictive, very low calorie elimination diet—I know it screwed up my metabolism, leading to massive weight gain and the need now for really low calories to lose. Vicious cycle.) Anyway, I do not want to be fat in photos when Booker starts competing! Plus I have a bunch of nice skinny pants I want to fit back into. 😊

I had a really good day yesterday, calories right where I planned, and my only snack was almond milk, frozen fruit, collagen smoothie in the evening, so very healthy. Yay me! I did some garden work and had a nice walk with the pup. Does knitting count as exercise? 😊🧶 I’m revising some regular menu items to lower the calories. This morning I made my homemade, fresher, healthier version of egg McMuffin, and on mine I replaced the cheese with a slice of tomato. It tasted great. Tonight I’m making a cherry tomato galette, and plan to eat only a few bites of crust to get some of the pleasure without all the calories. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get myself under control, but I feel like I am, finally. Wishing you all a great Saturday!

I don’t get it. I’ve kept my calories low — ~1200 — the past 3 days. How in the heck can I not be down a little and in fact be slightly up? Crazy. I know the daily variations don’t always make sense, but still. Oh well, I’ll just keep on trying. Not always easy — DH wants to order out Italian today. Aaack! I need to see if they have a reasonable salad, or maybe just order for him.

@SheilaBoneham You have done so great the past 3 days!! I wish you all the luck that you're able to stick with it today. I don't know how I would handle the temptation of ordering Italian with just 3 days in. Maybe calorie cycle and let today be 1600 calories, and lower your calories the next few days where your average is 1200 to 1400 over a 3 to 4 day span.3 -

I have to take my Fitbit off or yes I get 'knitting miles' too !!
@musicsax It seems to me that these companies that make step trackers would consider making an attractive ankle bracelet type strap. I can’t tell you how many people have asked me jokingly if my Garmin is so my parole officer can track me.
This really made me chuckle 😂. You should try suggesting it to them they might send you one free.2 -
Round 230
MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
ROUND 187 FOR ME.
“Today….I am choosing Me”
MY STATS:
Highest weight ever (05-10-2016): 253
Original starting weight on MFP: (01-11-2018) 235.0
R229 EW= 196.6
R230 EW= TBD
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.

My foodie daughter has been here since Thur evening although working during the day. I’m been babysitting DGS Age 5. I watched my portion sizes yesterday but Pasta always shows up on the scale for me. Leftovers today. I’ll probably freeze the rest. I didn’t get any exercising in yesterday technically although I ran after him all day and went to the park for awhile with him which fulfilled lots of steps for me. I did get in some minimal strength training.
07/23 -195.2- (Trend weight 196.8) Slightly down on the scale and the trend weight is responding well. I need TMI though. I’ve been having some issues lately. It’s time to focus on more water and maybe take a magnesium pill today.

@justanotherjen13 I’m curious about where you are located that 70F was warm. I know it’s all perspective. I think it was 94F when I got up at 6:20 here in the desert.
I live in the Pacific Northwest. I never used to think 70F was very hot. It was like comfortable jeans and t-shirts when I was growing up. But out here, it feels like you're on fire already with no clouds in the sky. Most people are in shorts and tank tops and hanging out by the rivers once it gets into the 70s. The highs have been in the 90s all last week.3 -
