    Round 232

    8/10 123.4
    I’ve noticed that good quality sleep makes such a difference in my ability to make progress. Most nights, I just toss and turn, so a goal this week is to proactively cultivate good sleep habits.

    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

    Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    This is going to be a difficult round for me- traveling all next week really screws me up. Out to eat, no scales, time change, eating at strange hours- Eeeeks! If I can just go sideways I will be happy. Good Luck and God bless you all this round.

Last few days 119 so think if I can stay in 119 this round will be very please with myself. got the chance to play wonderful pickleball last night and burned a ton of calories, also did twenty minute PT workout, ouch.

    @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!

    @lisapower123 Thanks! something new!

    65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 232 (my 163rd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
    Goal this round is to get back under and stay under 138. Holiday is now in 31 days, I still need to crack on & lose a few more pounds, starting to get back into some holiday clothes, but can't let up: time is running out! So, 31 days, 3 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 & do another complete round without binging. 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.

    8/11- 119.6 Happy with myself as I approach my last pound but I also have struggled before with maintenance many times before. I ate all but 70 of my workout calories and was very satiated last night. Hard to judge the morning calories, I ate my regular breakfast late but was still famished at my regular lunch time. I did overeat at lunch and to save face with me stuck half my lunch calories into snacks.

    8/10 - 153.0
    8/11 - DNW - Technically I did weigh, but in my zombie-brain last night, I left my phone on the couch overnight, didn't charge it, and it was too far away for my scale to sync and upload my weigh in. And I don't remember what it came up as. Oops! I do remember still seeing 153 pop up at some point while it was settling so I'm not dropping anything. I'm not entirely sure what is going on with this bloat. Usually any hormonal bloat will drop off as soon as TOM starts but I didn't even start bloating until it did. Hopefully it won't last too long and I can get back down before I travel. This is uncomfortable and confusing. Homemade, 100% from scratch chicken pot pie for dinner so I'm determined to eat my last serving of chickpea and veg curry for lunch as it's light and low calorie to make up for the extra large portion I'm undoubtedly going to serve myself of potpie tonight. I already completed my kettlebell strength and I'm about to go walk the pups. It's my day off so errands (post office, groceries) and baking!

    Previous Day's Comments
    8/10 - 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 - 185, 1346
    I started my “wunning” program yesterday. Starting slowly with 3 minutes walking, 30 seconds running (ok, jogging), for 30 minutes. The short runs were easy, but did get my heart rate up, and I don’t want to overdo it and discourage myself. I went for another half-hour walk with the pup last night. I’m off in a few min for my morning “wun.” I have to say, though, that my weigh-ins are discouraging lately. Losing weight at 70 is no picnic!

    8/11 - 185.2, 1417
    Aww, come on. I did a 35 min interval “wun” yesterday and another dog walk in the evening, plus some gardening, and calories were controlled. I do think I’m retaining water—my legs are swollen after my wuns. I’m drinking tons of water and hoping for a whoosh soon.

    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.


    COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain.Black is no change.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    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.

    08/11 - 193.8- (Trend weight 195.5) I was THRILLED to find myself back in the 193’s again. Still working my way toward the 180’s. It helps when I put the work in. I have already pre-logged my food for today which is mainly leftovers. I hope I can sneak some exercise in tonight after the dust settles. Today is the first day for handyman. He’s from another town and county so he will be here by 11:00 for the small loose-ends work. That will take at least 3 business days. I’m still praying for a good quote on the big jobs. I’m babysitting my DGS Owen today. He spent the night last night. He keeps me on my toes yet stops me from beginning any exercise routine with his constant needs. Nana, Oh Nana, Hey Nana etc. LOL. No way I can get on a bike or start a dance routine without having to constantly stop. However, sometimes I get him to do some strength training with me to teach him the importance of fitness. Rain expected by 2:00.

    Steps registered 9000. I played tennis for 90 minutes and treadmill for 30 minutes. Great activity!

    Yesterday was a good day. I planned well… staying focused - keeping health and nutrition in perspective! No roller coaster!
    I slept really well last night.

    NSV: Water intake improves every day. It’s becoming a natural part of my day. IF (First meal at noon last food at 6 PM) Intermittent fasting is almost 2nd nature now… 👍🏻

    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.

    Hi again! I'm Amanda, 37F in Virginia.

    SW Round 232 - 129.8
    R232 GW - 128

    8/10 - 129.8. I'm back again. I'm in a weird place where I don't necessarily want to focus on the number on the scale but it's the best way for me to think about what/how much I'm consuming. I've still been running a lot and lifting. My muscles are sore and tired today, TOM arrived this morning, and we went out for Mexican for dinner, so I'm holding on to some water for sure. But I still need to make better choices! Today I have a treadmill run and strength training scheduled. And today will be alcohol-free. I had margaritas at dinner and it messed up my sleep, ugh. Anyway, looking forward to the round and hope to actually see it through this time!

    8/11 - 129.8 again. I ended up running outside and postponing strength training yesterday. I signed up for this run training app for a two month trial and I felt really overloaded this week. It seems like you either do 5 runs a week or 3 runs a week with no in-between. I decided to switch over to 3 a week and then will add something on my own when I want to. I am so excited for this weekend. My friend is getting married at the same venue where my husband and I got married almost 7 years ago! We're spending the weekend in a cabin with them and some of their other friends. There are a bunch of hiking and biking trails, kayaks and canoes for rent, etc. The couple is driving from 4 hours away but it's only an hour away from us (ironically it was across the country from us when we got married there; we were living in Colorado at the time!). I'll be MIA and not weighing for the weekend. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

    Hey - congrats for working on losing weight though! I wish my mom would but, I don't know how she'd ever get on My fitness pal and actually DO it. Kuddos to you!

    So, one question.... How did you lose weight in 2015=2016? What was the magic?

    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.

    Previous Rounds:
    RND 229 - SW: 287.8; FW: 280.4 (-7.4)
    RND 230 - SW: 280.4; FW: 276.0 (-4.4)
    RND 231 - SW: 276.0; FW: 267.2 (-8.8)

    Goals:
    * track food every day
    * walk for at least one hour and/or two miles

    Round 232
    heaviest: 294 (7/4/23)
    SW: 267.2
    GW (short term): 250
    RGW: 262

    8/10 - 265.8 - 3.04 miles - I had planned to work in the yard laying more mulch and shoveling rocks, but as I got close to home after my walk, I started feeling really queasy. I'm not sure if it was the heat (it was only in the mid-70s) or something else, but I decided to just go inside and rest instead. This weekend is supposed to be super hot so I'm not sure how much I can get done. The plan is to get to bed early today so I get up early tomorrow and get out for my walk in the early morning so I'm working in the yard before the heat sets in. We'll see how that goes.

    8/11 - 264.8 - 2.37 miles - Worked for an hour in the yard shoveling rocks again and finished laying mulch on that side of the yard (YAY!). Then went on an hour walk when it started getting really hot. Didn't feel very well after that but it passed eventually. Then I spent 2.5 hours making homemade pizzas for the family so today was a cheat day. Last one was July 14 when I made pizza for my son's birthday. It tasted so good. Wish I could have more but I came in under my goal (barely and that's just an estimate). I'll make it up in the next couple of days so it's not a big deal.
