Round 232
August 10-20, 2023

Please join us starting on 8/10 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 232.

Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

If you feel your post is too lengthy, you can add spoilers to temporarily hide the information. It is readily available by tapping the SPOILER bar. To create a Spoiler just type or copy [ Spoiler ] xxx [ /Spoiler ] Omit the spaces within the brackets and put your information where I have xxx

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

    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

    Hello again!
    Female, 39 years old. 5'5" from Greece...Glad to be back!

    Last two years gained approximately 40 pounds (20kgr)..
    Tried drastic measures to get back to track, but to no avail... So I am now taking it one day at a time, with baby steps and learning to set realistic goals! Trying to make it a lifestyle choice, rather than a punishment !!

    HSW: 175 lbs (79.4 kgr)
    CW 170.8 lbs (77.5 kgr)
    GW for the 10 days 168.6 lbs (76.5 kgr).... two pounds per round...
    UGW 125 lbs (57 kgr)

    8/10 170.8 lbs (77.5 kgr). Very happy to see the scale going down even for a small amount... I have managed to stay within my calories (1200) and add some form of exercise!!

    Great day yesterday. Momentarily crushed by the scale yesterday. I decided to focus on the process and not the scale. I weighed in this morning to start this round… will weigh again in three days! Just trying to adjust to see what works for my psyche.

    Asleep by 8:30 up by 4. Cant stay awake later…. I fell asleep, so easily and satisfied from the day, but just couldn’t sleep longer… Woke up waaayyyy too early this morn. Let’s see if I can stay up a little later tonight… Walked 4mi after dinner. No technology. Just me and my thoughts. Solid prayer time.
    Today, will play tennis and tackle 12-3-30. Get my miles in! IF, Macros, water, calories!

    Stop the 🎢 roller coaster!
    Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻👆🏻

    Round 232
    August 10 – Aug 19, 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
    8/10 - 153.0 - TOM came out of nowhere unexpectedly and quick. I'm very hormone-puffy type bloated and crampy this morning. I'm also still sore from Monday and now yesterday's kettlebell strength workout so I imagine I'm holding on to water there, as well. I wonder if the stress of this week threw my body out of whack a bit. Likely so. I ate normally yesterday, hit right about my normal amount. Had 8 calories remaining according to MFP which is good. Today I have my meals planned out, including breakfast should I need to eat before lunch. BF is dealing with severe dizziness and we are waiting on a call back from the doc to see if he can get in. If it keeps on like this, I'm taking him to the ER. It's beginning to get scary (at first we thought it was a side effect from some medication he was taking for infection but it should've started wearing off after a week and his symptoms are only getting worse so we're trying to monitor things. He's the type of guy who will avoid the doctor unless he's dying so the fact that he reached out to get seen and is contemplating ER, it's bad... I know I'm being needy between Smoke and now BF, but I'm wondering if these things are connected and it is NOT a fun situation to watch from the sidelines. I'm hoping he can get seen/go to ER before I travel next week - my newest concern)

    8/10 219 This is exactly where I started last round. The difference is that I know I am up because I had a hard yoga class yesterday & my muscles are sore (not because I ate cookies). I am very close to being my normal self again. It’s a good thing because I have to work full time in September so now is the time to finish dealing with all of the mental stuff!

    @SModa61 I use the firewave from emr-tek. It is a little box that I move around. My new half brother just bought a full body red light which is more efficient but I don’t have the room. If you ever want to spend more time on Reddit there is a whole bunch of info on red lights. 97xahmg2k730.jpeg

    @lisapower123 OMG another subreddit for me to join....... :P (how do you do your head/hair with that box?)

    Round 232

    145320379.png

    MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
    ROUND 189 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
    R231 EW= 194.6
    R232 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 4 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.

    08/09 …..194.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    08/10 -195.2- (Trend weight 195.6) Scale is up 0.6 lbs but trend weight is stable. The chocolate chunk fresh zucchini bread was delicious but now it’s gone so today should be okay. Hair dresser appointment today for a perm so I can look like I have some sort of fullness to my ever-thinning hair. Getting in on the conversation, I have the red light cap for my head to help with hair loss. I also have the brush. Both were expensive. I love the idea of the once shown in the pic because it can be moved all over the body. I may look into it. . I got a good phone call from my oncologist. The CT results came up stable meaning the nodule on my lung is not growing or showing behaviors of cancer (still). Yay! Next stop is the mammogram and oncology appointment at the University Hospital at the end of the month for the normal routine breast cancer stuff. Hopefully I’m still in remission.

    @SModa61 i usually put it on this 2 tier thing that I have on my living room table and bow my head. I feel it gets most of my head that way. I also put it there to do my face. I could lay on the floor in front of it. I have seen people put it in a chair or the arm of a couch. It can be hung from a hook on the wall or ceiling. So many options! I figured you could have fun with another subreddit!

    Yes, another round!

    Jen; 46; 5'4"

    About Me:
    This is my fourth round and really appreciated having someplace to stay accountable.
    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. On July 4, 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. So far I've been doing great despite a lot of stress in my life. I had one "cheat" day on my son's 13th birthday because I made homemade pizza and enjoyed three slices of it. I have felt no need to "cheat" since then which makes me very happy. I keep telling myself I'll eat a bag of chips when I get to X weight, but that weight comes, and I feel no need to eat the chips and want to continue eating healthy to lose more weight. Amazing for a carb junkie.
