@SheilaBoneham your thoughts make a lot of sense to me! I feel like the seasons changing is a wonderful time for self-reflection and renewal, finding what's working for you and what isn't. Relocating can certainly be isolating and lead you to including people in your life that are convenient but might not be the right fit to help you be your best self. I personally find it harder and harder to make new friends as I get older - I guess as we all get set in our respective ways. Hope you can find your direction and fill any emotional gaps with things that make you happy and fulfilled

@SheilaBoneham I’m sorry, I keep forgetting to tell you how beautiful your sweater is. I’m sure you will enjoy it in the coming Indiana winter!

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

9/19. 129.0 Today I will begin a fast after we eat early lunch. DH has cards at noon, takes a friend to the doctor at 4 and has a meeting at 5 (he’ll be late due to earlier commitment) that should be over by 7. Today it is supposed to be 97F (36C) so it is finally cooling off here. The next 2 weeks show all temps below 90. Maybe I should make getting to the gym my goal this round!6 -

R236
My 6th Round
Good luck everyone! You inspire me!
F, 5’6”, almost 65 😉, Married, Retired. MawMaw Proud!
Starting R236 at 137 - (⬇️ from 145 mid-July.) Not bad.
Goals: Relax, TRUST the process, Celebrate making healthy choices. Taste buds are overrated. NEVER let the ⚖️ impact my mood or determination.
UGW: Make choices to weigh 128 again & MAINTAIN.
🛑🎢
Adjusted Daily Goals:
70-80💦, Cal (1225-1325) Macros% 3-72-25, (Ketovore) 12k steps, Burn 600+ activity calories, 90+ Activity minutes.
Next 10 days: 12-3-30 3x and 🏋️♀️3x (I’ve been neglecting this, and it needs to be a top priority!)
R236⚖️: Let’s get the ⚖️ down 1.5- 2lbs to 135x! Relaxed but focused. Breathe and pause.
9/19 ⚖️ 137.0lbs 🤔(again!) Yesterday, 200+ exercise minutes, 1225 move calories, 18k+ steps. Crazy day. Woke up stiff but worked it out. Short walk this morning, then tennis again tonight. Probably will not reach anywhere near that activity today because I obviously overdid it yesterday. Trying to nap this afternoon - did not sleep well last night – too wound up. What do I need to keep doing or change while on this part of my journey?! I think I’m making progress, because the scale is not bothering me anymore… It is what it is I just have to keep focused and taking care of myself.

Back for another round.
Jen; 46; 5'4"
About Me:This is my eighth 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. I'm a mom of five and grandma of one 4yo that I babysit during the week when my daughter is working.

9/19 - 243.4 - 2.98 miles - Today has been a roller coaster. Started okay and then I realized around 10:30 that the water had been turned off. I then started walking to the store to get some cheese and coffee creamer before the sale ended (today). At noon, my daughter texted me frantic because she couldn't find one of our kittens. Got home and spent the next 4 hours looking for the kitten all over the neighborhood. Finally found her in the neighbor's open garage. But we still don't have water because my husband is refusing to pay the bill and says our daughter (23yo) needs to pay it but she doesn't have enough money for it ($260). So we just don't have running water anymore. She went to buy jugs of water to drink and use for washing hands but I have no idea how we're going to flush the toilets. I'm so stressed out. I can't wash the dishes or cook or take a shower. I'm afraid to go to the bathroom since I can't flush. He doesn't care and will not pay the bill. I had to use all the water in my bottle to fill the cat's dish. Now I'm thirsty but we currently only have 1 gallon of water between the six of us (at least until my daughter gets home).

Good Morning, very soon to be Happy Fall... Here's to falling scale numbers in addition to falling leaves. Started and ended the same last month, a little out of control in the middle, traveling is so hard on me. I need to form better habits, I am going to focus on strength training, since my accident in May I have procrastinated getting back to shape. I started back to work in May and have not yet figured out when to exercise in my day. So this round, I going figure out when to put aside 30 minutes a day for strength training.

SW Round 236
9/19: 119- this is a nice start...tracked my food yesterday, that habit is so important and as i approach maintenance i need to keep that habit and not immediately toss it and be surprised when weight creeps up again. goal today- schedule my weight trying exercise!
9/20: 118.2- Wow...I have joked with my kids for years that I can not read their minds and they can not read mine- I am feeling like that with the scale. I made a wonderful tilapia piccata last night and needed to use white wine- then had several glasses midweek, eeks! bad me! After writing this I am going to go backfill my food diary, bad me all around...BUT I did go and do the 50 minute Les Mills Body Pump- weight lifting class last night- Gosh I love this forum! Funny I wrote I would do it and it weighed on me (pun not intended) all day until I did it- the wine consumption might have been due to me procrastinating? No, I think wine consumption was all me.

Day, Weight, Comment
9/19 - DNW
9/20 - 154.4 - It's a drop, though not as much as I was hoping for. This is making me believe, with 2 great days of over 100oz of water, that this isn't as much water weight as I hoped and is more actual gain than I'd like or had planned for. I was hoping, as a mini-goal, to get down into the 140s by my birthday (9Oct) and it's looking to be a real fight to reach that. Tonight's dinner is a bit of a calorie bomb but I'm focusing on portion control and being mindful of when and why I'm eating. I had a slip up yesterday - I ate BF's remaining lunch pizza (work exploded so he didn't get a chance to clean up and either save or toss it) AFTER I ate my own lunch. I wasn't hungry but my body said "pizza! no waste!" and down this human garbage disposal it went. Ugh. Run today with Smoke while BF walks Harley. We ended up walking after dinner yesterday to make up for not being able to in the morning (contractors showed up right at our walk time) and once again, BF joined me. It's really nice even though we don't really talk. I'm aiming for another walk after dinner tonight, as well.

Previous Day's Comments9/19 - I decided not to weigh since I woke up a few times last night very thirsty and chugged water leading to a possibly false high. Especially since we ended up eating out. We didn't go to the CPR class as the contractors didn't leave until after 630, the class started at 6 and it was 45 minutes away. Unfortunately, by the time we realized we wouldn't be going to the class, it was too late to thaw anything for dinner and we ended up eating out (didn't change much as we'd have to eat out if we went to the class since there was no time between work and having to leave to cook AND eat). Kettlebell workout today and walk planned for after dinner as contractors showed up right after 7am - our usual walk time. I have plenty of leftover cowboy stew which I made for lunch instead - I plan on roasting my leftover carrots and adding them into the stew to provide some veg since I don't count corn or potatoes for my daily veg count. Burritos for Taco Tuesday dinner tonight so need to stay mindful of my portions and overall intake, especially with only 1 walk and 15 minute strength workout.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/19 - (Mass) 126.6 Yesterday was fully tracked and numbers were good. Today is first post with my abbreviated version using an edited “note” Rounds 236 and 237 will be done this way in an attempt to actually post throughout my travels. Still 6 days until I leave, but need to put those skills together.
9/20 - (Mass) 126.0 posting from my iPad for practice. Still ate some things extra yesterday, but likely in maintenance range. Though I have been lower, I would be pleased if I actually maintain this weight.

@SModa61 I know your not on the road ✈️ yet but I hope you have a safe and wonderful trip!
@justanotherjen13 Praying for you. I Cannot imagine how stressful your current situation is… I pray it is resolved soon and that you have abundant water to nourish your body and soul. 🫶🏻
Thanks. Hoping to stay healthy! Everyone is getting sick lately.
Jen, so sorry for your troubles. Where is your husband going to the bathroom and eating and drinking if he is ok with this? Can your neighbors at least let you fill some jugs for the bathroom from their hose?7 -
R236
My 6th Round
Good luck everyone! You inspire me!
F, 5’6”, almost 65 😉, Married, Retired. MawMaw Proud!
Starting R236 at 137lbs - (⬇️ 8lbs from 145 mid-July.) Not bad.
Goals: Relax, TRUST the process, Celebrate making healthy choices. Taste buds are overrated. NEVER let the ⚖️ impact my mood or determination.
UGW: Make choices to weigh 128 again & MAINTAIN.
🛑🎢
Adjusted Daily Goals:
70-80💦, Cal (1225-1325) Macros% 3-72-25, (Ketovore) 12k steps, Burn 600+ activity calories, 90+ Activity minutes.
Next 10 days: 12-3-30 3x and 🏋️♀️3x (I’ve been neglecting this, and it needs to be a top priority!)
R236⚖️: Let’s get the ⚖️ down 1.5- 2lbs to 135x! Relaxed but focused. Breathe and pause.
9/19 ⚖️ 137.0lbs 🤔(again!) Yesterday, 200+ exercise minutes, 1225 move calories, 18k+ steps. Crazy day. Woke up stiff but worked it out. Short walk this morning, then tennis again tonight. Probably will not reach anywhere near that activity today because I obviously overdid it yesterday. Trying to nap this afternoon - did not sleep well last night – too wound up. What do I need to keep doing or change while on this part of my journey?! I think I’m making progress, because the scale is not bothering me anymore… It is what it is I just have to keep focused and taking care of myself.
9/20 DNW Good day yesterday. ✅ 103 active min, 780 move calories, ✅macros, 1258 calories. 🚫 steps-just 9k. Finally slept well last night. Today: not sure yet what or how…. but will hit targets. No tennis so I’ll go on a hike/walk and maybe go to the gym for 12–3-30. 🏋️♀️today! Hoping to have a motivated/ grateful day. Oh, Even though I thought I had enough electrolytes yesterday, I had BAD leg cramps early this morning before I got up… It’s been a LONG time since I’ve had cramps, so I have to make sure I get enough, magnesium, potassium, and sodium everyday.

9/19-DNW
9/20-167-Game on today. Was gone all day yesterday and will be gone tomorrow, so I need to get as much done as I can. Walked after dinner with DH last night, which was nice. One year ago I had to take him to Urgent Care on Tuesday and the ER on Friday because of his heart racing and after a heart catheterization, two different heart monitors and all of the tests that go with it all, he has been given a green light to do what he wants. They are telling him it is just heart palpitations and he does not have them enough of the time to warrant further research.
Now life should get back to normal.5 -

SW Round 236: 127.4
GW Round 236: 125.0
Non-scale goals (tracked for the previous day):
💧minimum 64oz of water 9/10 days
✏️ track intake 4/10 days (setting this one low since I have been so bad about this lately)
💪🏻 work out 8/10 days
⏰ intermittent fast 16 hours 7/10 days
9/19 - 💧💪🏻 128.0. Alright alright, time to rein it in. Gave myself enough leeway with the half marathon (thanks all for the congratulatory words!!!). Hopefully some of this is water. Recovery is over so time to get back on track. Today will be an endurance Peloton ride and probably a dog walk since my husband couldn’t do it before he went to work.
9/20 - ✏️💧💪🏻 126.8. Phew, got rid of some of the water my carbs were holding on to, and I managed to actually track yesterday, though admittedly I tracked dinner this morning. Better than never thinking about it at least. I was supposed to be doing a cycling-only challenge now but I accidentally selected the 2 rides/2 runs option on the website, so now I'm due for an interval run today. It's basically the last thing I want to do, haha. Ah well. Hoping to stack it with some upper body strength. I can't seem to build much arm strength and always have to life below the weight the Peloton classes call for, so I really need to make sure I'm doing some arms/chest/back training each week.
