Daily Details:Tues.19.09:
3 full weeks and a couple of days into logging everything, everyday. Of being consistent. I haven’t met all of my goals, but that’s okay. I haven’t been consistent with anything for more than two weeks for the past 7+ years. Because I hated it. I hated everything I tried. I hated not seeing the scale move fast enough. I hated being miserable, without results to show for it. This time around is definitely different. I feel good, I have energy, and I don’t feel like I’m depriving myself of anything. And I’m not just waiting for something to happen that I can use as an excuse to go get junk/comfort food. I’ve been a bit too far under my calories some days, I’ll put effort into making sure I’m not below 1400, but I’ll let everything else sort itself out and not stress over macros, they seem to generally be okay and I’m meeting my protein target in grams and carbs are rarely over 30% of my daily total.
I’ve been so focused on getting what I’m eating right that discipline is lacking in the fitness area. This round my goal is 30 minutes of exercise EVERY DAY. Whether it’s a full workout, a cruisy walk, or stretching, it doesn’t matter. 30 minutes of intentional movement.
Weds.20.09:
Yesterday was good. 20 minutes of walking in as we got to my daughter’s appointment early and had nothing better to do! Not 30 minutes, but at least it’s something.
Thurs.21.09:
Busy day yesterday, shopping in the morning, and gardening all afternoon. Did stop and get Maccie’s while we were out. May or may not have affected the scale today. I did get a longer walk in last night so 30 minutes in! My watch counted the gardening as active minutes as well, which I guess it is.
Fri.22.09:
Yesterday was good. Eating on plan, albeit a bit under target calories, and got a workout in. I don’t know what the scale’s doing so I’m just record-keeping for now. Maybe after a few months I can have a look at any patterns that arise.
A few little NSV’s, my resting heart rate is averaging back in the high 40’s, where a month ago it was mid to high 50’s. And many of my clothes are fitting better or are too big. It was 33c (91.4f) here yesterday so I broke out my comfy shorts and while they were previously tight-ish around my thighs and bum, they’re noticeably more baggy. I’ve decided to put $20 for every kg I lose into a sub-account, so that I have it to splurge on new clothes when I need them. For now, most of my clothes are just fitting as they’re all from my “usual” weight of around 86kg/190lbs (once I started gaining I just wore clothes that would still fit like fitness leggings, elastic-waisted linen shorts/pants, and dresses - I didn’t really buy any bigger clothes apart from one pair of jeans). By the time I’m needing new stuff I should have a nice little stash to spend! This is helpful as well because as a mom I tend to put everyone else first and feel guilty getting things for myself. I do measurements weekly, and this coming Monday will be a full month, so it’ll be interesting to see the progress from my starting measurements.
Sat.23.09:
It’s the weekend again already, so another busy day. Did my meal planning for the week and grocery shop already this morning, and need to get out and weed the garden this afternoon. No workout yesterday, my hips are really sore for some reason. I worry about my hips because they’re constantly popping and cracking and I haven’t even hit 40 yet! Hopefully getting healthier will take some of the strain off so I don’t need to be worrying about hip replacements before 50 (or ever) 😅
Sun.24.09:
Pizza AND ice cream yesterday. Pizza was planned (and homemade), ice cream wasn't. Doesn't fit in the "limit added sugar", but I wanted it and I knew if I didn't have it, that I would end up trying to find something else to fill that want, and it wouldn't have been satisfying. So I had it, and it was delicious. Had less pizza and added salad to dinner to stay in my targets. With October almost here and the holidays coming soon after, I might do a no added sugar challenge (and no substitutes either) for myself. The exception, as always, will be my dark chocolate. I think I'll start with October and see how I feel about extending it.
Mon.25.09:
Did my weekly measurements this morning. Down 10cm in my waist, 5cm in my lower abdomen, 8cm in my hips and 3cm in the thigh and 3cm from my calf. Smaller losses for my arms and bust, which is expected as I usually hold my weight in my bum and thighs. All together I’m down 33.5cm (13.19”) in 4 weeks from my various measurements. I think a large part of that was just bloating and inflammation.
Got in a 4.3km walk with my daughter yesterday evening. We’ve been going after dinner and the sun still isn’t staying up too late and it’s been dark when we go, so we’ve been sticking to shorter walks but did a slightly longer one last night. Enjoying the cooler weather we’re still getting in the afternoons and evenings, summer will be here before we know it with high temps, crazy humidity, and afternoon storms.
Tues.26.09:
I woke up HUNGRY this morning (530am), which is definitely not normal for me. I managed to wait until 9am to figure out what I actually wanted (a java chip protein smoothie). So I ended my fast 2 hours earlier than usual. I’ll likely skip dinner and close my window early. My daughter’s going to her boyfriend’s house to make ravioli for dinner, and my partner will be happy enough with chicken nuggets. Skipping dinner means I can get my walk in earlier too, since I don’t want to go in the dark by myself (daughter has been coming with me lately). Or maybe I can convince my partner to come, but I doubt it. He’ll have to be up at 430am tomorrow.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 235 (my 165th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, so grateful.
Starting this round still on holiday, so will now be weighing until get home; fly back 22nd, so ready to fill commit again from 23rd, in the meantime trying to make sensible choices in order to maintain, but still enjoy the holiday.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.

Round 236
SW
9/19 DNW - a more sensible temperature of 29⁰ yesterday, 12.65 miles walked, still at a leisurely pace.
9/20 DNW - holiday, 9.31 miles walked.
9/21 DNW - holiday, 9.85 miles walked in-between yesterday's rain. At one point used the treadmill in the hotel gym whilst the rain was torrential!
9/22 DNW - fly back from holiday, 11.39 miles walked yesterday, all packed & ready for the airport, holiday is over again 😪, had a lovely time.
9/23 143.6 – so there is the holiday damage, lets get cracking and lose it before it settles! 5 miles walked yesterday. Developed a bit of a worrying health symptom whilst away but will have to wait until Monday before I can get Drs. appointment; time seems to be standing still!!
9/24 141.6 – busy day yesterday, grocery shopping, washing, ironing, tidying up garden, visiting MIL, hence no structured walking & calories 200 over, but good to be back eating self-prepared meals, at least I know what’s in them!!
9/25 140.6 – DD invited us up for Sunday lunch, DS & family came too, lovely to all be together. She cooked a delicious roast dinner & a wonderful passionfruit, raspberry & white chocolate roulade = loads of calories. Wasn’t hungry at evening mealtime so just had water, a pear & a banana, 200 calories over.
9/26 140.6 – 10.18 miles walked, 40% exercise calories eaten back. Got to see Dr. she thinks my problem is caused by indigestion and not anything more sinister, started the medication prescribed, hope it solves the problem.

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.
9/21: 118.6 Mmmm- Do you think even though I finally started menopause I could have a monthly TOM like period? I have had a headache for a week and went on a chocolate binge- Pathetic Chocolate Binge- Pathetic! I found Peppermint Chocolate Bark! I hope is only 1 year old but judging by its location could be 2- And I ate it! - the day before yesterday and yesterday...Eeks...I did wake up this morning finally headache free and feel well rested which I have not felt well rested in months so that is awesome. So whatever this time of month is called when you reach menopause is finally over. No pickleball last night- I had my investment club over, so had to ride spin cycle last night. Hope weather is nice tonight so I can play while we still have sunlight in the evening.
9/22: 116.8 Ok! I think pickleball is really incredible exercise! Played last nigh against several very good 20 somethings last night all higher ranked and because of age it is a different game. I did not believe my apple watch for calories burn - but all my winner shots they return because they move so fast and go for them so the back in forth were intense and so much fun. I kept up and played maybe like a 40 year old. But that is my only explanation for my weight loss. I came home put my pjs on watch another episode of my Netflix Korean rom-dram (Crash Landing) and went to bed slightly hungry. Mmm think about what I wrote yesterday - again I am about 9 months into finally being menopausal- wonder if I could have been even bloated? Well need to figure out maintaining now...
9/23: Migraine went back to bed
9/24: 117.4 Yesterday started bad- with a massive migraine...I am lucky I have medication (Rizatriptan) that really works for me, but it takes 3 hours to kick in fully- So missed my weigh in yesterday. After feeling better-again I am so lucky that I felt so much better after, I went and played several hours of pickleball, put together my deck furniture table, and called all my siblings to discuss my mom's healthcare. Have so many decisions to make and need to get out of my compartmentalized brain and deal with some global life issues which are easy for me to ignore. Look forward to catching up on all of your days later, I need to go to church and pray for some guidance right now.
9/25: 120.4- There is a Brothers Osborne song, It Ain't My Fault" I love, that sprung to mind this morning after I weighed myself. Blame my weight gain on the pizza, Blame the pizza on the beer etc... I wish I was talented enough to keep going...But indulged yesterday on a lot of salty food and overrate. So fun, fun, fun, I need to overcorrect the next few days. We will see how that goes. So many things on my list of things to do. figuring out my mom's healthcare, my daughter, who is a little lost right now, has reached out, but this tough love is hard, need to get my finances in order for lawyer , oh and did I mention the broken toilet (I have others and I have water but just another item on key list of things todo)... and still need to work my job. Doing a weight workout now seems far more attractive than my list of things to do.
Sorry this is such a whine fest,,,I can blame it in the migraine that lasted all night long ( hee hee still ripping on my song). Once I start tackling my list I will be better.
9/26: 119.8 Busy yesterday, squeezing in my personal list of things to do with my work things to do...my toilet less then year old so Kohler sending out new flushing section-check. Called CalPers about my mom, no help- but called care home she lives in , administrator sending me some info- so in progress- hopefully can get the largest project started my finances organized. Writing its down here, planned weight training today.

Date/weight/comment
9/19 - 154.3 - I need to keep drinking water, tracking food, and moving.
9/20 - 153.6 - I may bounce up tomorrow, but I haven't seen this number since July so I'm heading in the right direction. I just need to stick to my plan.
9/21 - 153.2 - I'm waiting for the bounce, but I'm very happy with my progress.
9/22 - 153.6 - There is the bounce. I'll be weighing and measuring all my food this weekend to make sure I stay on track. I know I've underestimated my food choices before by just eyeballing the measurements.
9/23 - 153.6 - I ate well last night and I've been measuring my food today. We are having hamburgers tonight, so I may show some bounce in the morning from that, but I know I'm staying within calories.
9/24 - 153.8 - OK, I've done well so far this weekend. I've been tracking all my food. I need to drink more water though.
9/25 - 154.1 - I stuck to my plan this weekend, just had a lot of sodium. I'll be drinking a lot of water today.
9/26 - 154.1 - All I can do is drink more water and hope for a whoosh.

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.
9/21 DNW Up too early. I had a crummy, crummy day out of nowhere yesterday. Not mindful or grateful. Just plain tired. NO 🚫 or few ✅. No gym. Overly tired still from Monday and Tuesday. A reminder to know my activity/exercise limits and to stay hydrated. Over-doing it Monday and Tuesday ruined my Wednesday but hopefully not today too. I hope I’m not petering out!!!! After lunch, I laid on the couch and vegged out. Zero energy. 1343 BAD calories and only 5k steps. My brain was also dead. I wasn’t prepared for the tiredness. At least I tracked my day. I want to have a better day today. Taking care of myself also means avoiding physical exhaustion. Feeling out-of-sorts but not terribly so. This morning: will reflect, journal and make a few positive plans. Just do it.
🛑🎢!!!
9/22 ⚖️ 135.8 👀
Is THIS my whoosh?! 😀I’ll take it! However… I’m experienced enough to know that it’ll disappear for the next ⚖️, so at least I’m slowly going in the right direction. Whoosh or no whoosh. Not feeling any kind of a “high” so that’s a form of winning and conquering the 🎢. Once again… I don’t want the scale to impact my emotions, commitment, or determination. Just keep with the plan and the process.✌️!
Yesterday: 1213 cal, 120 active min, 682 move cal burned, macros ✅. Was still tired yesterday. Wow. But I did manage to get my exercise minutes and 8k steps. Will do more today as I have more time AND I’m more rested. Enjoying my coffee and hoping to push to be more active this weekend. Just moving! DH just left - will be out of town till late Sunday night so I can enjoy a couple of days of “me” time. Will head to the grocery store after tennis this morning to plan my eats for the weekend.
9/23 DNW Almost forgot to post this morning so I guess that’s a good thing! Yesterday was just about a perfect day… attitude and discipline.
1270 cal, ✅ macros, 132 movement minutes 817 Movement calories. 9k steps. My steps have been off lately because I just haven’t felt like going for a long walk… Hoping I meet 12 K today! I’ve decided to up my protein again… been reading a lot about it. While DH is away this weekend I’m going full carnivore. Yesterday I had a big juicy ribeye. Half for lunch and half for dinner. 100% satisfied… And that’s it for the day! This morning, two eggs over easy with grated cheddar cheese on top and two pieces of “healthy”bacon… I’m ready for the day! If I feel good, I may keep it going… Spending the day with my grandson at his soccer matches… We’ll walk /circle the fields to get in my steps!
NSV- While the scale is not cooperating, as much as I had hoped, I can visually tell my body is changing… Not that much, but enough for me to notice. I’ve lost only eight or 9 pounds, but it looks like I’ve lost a little more… And I’m feeling really good!
9/24 DNW Enjoyable day yesterday. Did not get my steps in because I mistakenly wore flip-flops for the soccer matches and did not pack any walking shoes… Registered 6k steps.
I read up on health/nutrition yesterday, and I realize I am just NOT walking enough! I need to work walks into my day, 45-1hr in the morning and same in the evening no matter what my step count is in between … It’s just healthy! Will definitely pick up my strength training. Will try my best to do that this week and see how it goes! Yesterday I ate chuck steak, eggs, cheese & bacon = 1273 cal, 0 carbs, 40% protein, 60% fat. Feel 100% satiated and feel great! I enjoyed a wonderful day with my grandson! Hoping to weigh in the 135s tomorrow but if I don’t it’s no big deal… Sticking to my process!
Oh, an old friend is coming into town from Australia and we’re hosting a small gathering for her. Will be about 12 ladies with tons of food, libations and temptation… I will be strong!
9/25 ⚖️ 135.9 Yesterday I was strong throughout the party, but when my friend brought out the homemade Dolce Leche, I had to have one little bitty taste… Ended up having two tastes! So I’m Counting that as a win for calories, but I went off carnivore.
Did not walk yesterday. Will get back on track today.
NSV yesterday- My lady friends, “You look great… so thin”! I dressed right yesterday 😀😎🤣. Love my high-waisted jeans!
9/26 DNW played tennis twice yesterday-4 hrs on court and another match this morn. Hit 12.5k steps and want that again today. Still haven’t done treadmill 12-3-30 for a while. Did 🏋️♀️-only 15 min yesterday. I get bored. I had to really push myself to eat 1200 calories yesterday. Eggs, Chuck steak, cheese, my ACV drink and hot tea. TONS of water. I feel stong and determined! Because of two tennis matches, I didn’t walk extra. ALSO, it’s hard to get “moves” in for more movement on days I play tennis….. I need to strengthen and stretch. Will do that today. I’m challenging myself to get an established routine for strength training to complement moves. I’ve been seriously lax and I need to do that for long-term health.

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.
9/21 - ✏️💧💪🏻⏰ 126.6. Overdid it a bit yesterday but I'm glad I tracked. Going to stay the course today and make sure I get that water in. I've been cutting it close and not paying too much attention. My husband seems to have left the dog walking to me this week so I guess I'll be doing that today, as well as a 30-minute Peloton ride. At least the weather is nice and the doggies will get me outside. I would really like to lose a couple pounds in the next month before my friend's wedding in Colorado! I'll be seeing a lot of people I haven't seen in a long time, so it seems like a good motivator to look and feel my best & most confident. I also want to be in good cardiovascular shape for hiking and/or running at a higher altitude, so I need to keep moving!
9/22 - 💪🏻⏰ 126.4. Missed a couple of my non-scale goals yesterday so I want to make sure I hit those today! So thankful it's Friday. This week has felt LONG and I'm not sure why. I have some fitness-related analysis paralysis today. I have a 45-minute endurance run on the schedule. I'd rather sneak out for a mountain bike ride at lunch time. But also I feel like I could use a rest day. Decisions, decisions.
9/23 - ✏️💪🏻⏰125.8ish
9/24 - 128.4
9/25 - 💪🏻128.4. Weekend damage is done. One day I'll stop sabotaging myself over the weekends but that didn't happen for this one. We had a bunch of people over yesterday and made pizza and wings while semi-watching the Buffalo Bills football game - thankfully it was a very boring game as cooking and child-minding took a lot of our attention. Plenty of beer was consumed, too. Hoping a lot of this is retained water. Gonna hit all of my non-scale goals today to start the recovery.
9/26 - ✏️💪🏻⏰💧 126.8. I think this will spike tomorrow. Yesterday ended up being awful health-and-fitness-wise. I missed my workout because someone came to fix our well (we get both town and well water so it wasn't an emergency, but I am glad to have the water that goes to the refrigerator back in action because the well water tastes SO much better) at the exact time I was about to work out. I did 10 minutes of barre right before they got here so I'm giving myself credit for working out, BUT it wasn't great. Today I'm not sure how I'm going to work it in either. Our cleaner is coming, which I need to prep for in between work, the well people are coming back, and the dogs need a walk, so the walk may end up being my only exercise. Oh and we also got food from Sonic last night, and I did not hold back. There are literally no lower-calorie options there, so I just gave up and had a big chili dog. I even got a limeade. I don't know why. I ended the day 850ish over calories, but at least I attempted to track?? Today will be better!

Yeah, I figured I’d bounce back up. But I’m determined to get out of the 6s for good this round. As autumn settles in I want to retry some things that have calmed me, grounded me, and “filled me up,” as my friend Cait puts it—a serious writing schedule, long daily walks, regular meditation, maybe some painting, and, of course!, knitting. I’ve felt adrift for quite awhile—since before Covid (probably since we moved from NC to OR in 2016 and then to our current place in IN 9 months later) but the isolation really pushed me out to sea and I’ve never gotten my mojo back. I think that’s part of why I eat emotionally—to fill the empty places. Part of me wants to go sleep for about a week, but another part wants to feel I’m accomplishing something. The “old” things I named might not be the right things for me now, but I need to find out, then let go to open the space physically and emotionally. I feel I need to reassess some of my people, too. Does any of this make sense? And let me say many thanks to this beautiful, supportive, non-judgmental group! Thanks for letting me sound off and for posting your own “we are not alone” posts. ❤️

I made a little start on the “new me” yesterday by meditating for 20 minutes and unfollowing a few people on FB so their annoying posts won’t show up in my feed. I also decided to bury the ashes of my past dogs in my garden. This probably sounds weird to some people, but I have 11 boxes of cremains, some of them 20+ years old, in my closet. Eleven beloved dogs and competition partners. But I realize that when I die, and especially if DH is also gone, whoever cleans things out will throw them in the trash. Besides, it may not be spiritually healthy to have dead things in the house (Feng Shui advises against dried flowers). They all loved playing in my various gardens over the years, so that’s where they can play and rest, still close by. I’m sure I’ll be a blubbering mess by the time I’m finished, but the turning of the year seems like the right time for such ceremony. Ok, off to walk, then on with the day.
9/21 - 186
I didn’t accomplish much yesterday and decided that’s okay. I’m going to lunch with a friend, but plan to behave myself, and DH and I already agreed on “fend for yourself” for dinner, so I’ll make my lunch work for both meals. My friend and I have a favorite diner, so I’ll get one of their healthy breakfasts or a Greek salad. Thanks to those who commented supportively on my last two posts. Much appreciated.
9/22 - 187
Ooops! My friend switched things up and we went to Cracker Barrel. I had eggs and bacon but sadly chose biscuits and gravy for my side—I don’t even like CB’s biscuits and gravy very much! Jeesh. That set me on a slide and I ate much more than I’d planned last night. Gaaa. Why do I do this? Anyway, to compensate, I walked an hour before breakfast and now I’m starting on that closet I mentioned on Wednesday.

My calories were on target yesterday, so this is backlash from Thursday. I’ll get rid of it! Happy 🍁 Autumn, everyone in the northern hemisphere!

Aaaacccccckkkkkk. A memory came up in Facebook this morning—7 years ago I hit my WW goal weight. The post mentions walking, running, swimming, weight training as well as calories. I think I know what my current problem is….
9/25 - 187
I can’t believe I’ve gained almost 10 pounds since the end of 2022. Disgusting. So my primary goal is to lose those 8.6 pounds by Dec. 31. My secondary goal is to round that up to -10 pounds by then. I don’t usually like to set goals in pounds because I can’t control the outcome, only my behavior, but I think I need to think in numbers. Beyond that, I have to get back to a healthy weight and stop kidding myself about it. I’m off now for a walk. Planning to talk to DH later about the amount of pasta we (I) eat—he does most of the cooking, and pasta is his go to. And now I’m off for a walk in one of my favorite parks.
9/26 - 187
Yesterday was good, and I have today all planned. I’m meeting a friend for lunch, have checked the menu and will be getting either low-cal soup or a low-cal salad (some of the restaurant’s salads are 800-1000 calories). Tonight I’m making sea scallop bisque, which isn’t really low cal, but is delicious and extremely satisfying. DH has been asking for for a while. So I should keep my calories within bounds. I’m leaving early for lunch to go for a walk in a park on the way. Win-win!

Sorry this is 4 or 5 days later. I've been occupied. I REALLY don't like putting TOO much of my family info on the internet, but I will tell you what I did and what DH did to reverse his diabetes. (1) DH did what I told him to do😐 and NOT what his doctor and dietician were telling him to do. Believe me this was not an easy task. He was pretty much a dead man walking, he'd lost 30lbs with a blood glucose level of over 300mg/dl (16mmol) when I finally convinced him to GO TO THE HOSPITAL this past April. In the hospital, after getting him rehydrated with electrolytes, his blood sugar dropped into the 200's. Then they began feeding him 5 times a day (he has never eaten like that) and stupidly giving him dietary choices that were unwise. A lot of carbs, which got him in this predicament in the first place! When he was in hospital he gained more bad habits.
(2) Home and I have to break these habits now. Because his blood sugar was so high, he was put on a tremendous amount of insulin. He now understood to eat only what I gave him. I had to really school myself on diabetes, because I was determined to get him off ALL medication. It took me a month to get him to stop eating the prescribed snacks. At the same time, because of the insulin he was having hypoglycemic episodes 3 times a day. Blood sugar dropping down to 60mg to 40mg to 30mg and that is scary overnight. So I had to circumvent the insulin and figure out what to feed him to keep his BS level through the day and especially at overnight. So, it was fatty breakfasts w/fruit and lunchtime the most carbs (salad, fruit, low carb bread) Dinner had to be equally fatty and carb filled because of the insulin making him hypoglycemic. It took a little while to get it right. Anyway, his Hba1c is now 5.3. He's off metformin, off blood pressure med, cholesterol med halved has been self regulating the insulin which was finally reduced in June and again in July. This is a lot, I know. Sorry it's so long and believe me it's not half of it.
Thank you @deepwoodslady, @pezhed @AR10at50 @quiltingjaine @SheilaBoneham @CamandJarvis @musicsax

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.

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!
9/20 129.0 Community bingo tonight. And regarding the upcoming temps - 8 of the next 14 days now show 90 or higher. Not complaining-those are much better than 100+ but the direct sun is brutal.
9/21 129.5 I should have skipped the BINGO “meal” - I ate a fried chicken breast and ice cream sandwich and passed on the sweetened cole slaw. My macros were almost perfect after my portion of leftover lasagna. “Just like the real thing” lasagna -Peace Love and Low Carbhttps://peaceloveandlowcarb.com › ..."Just Like the Real Thing" Keto Lasagna
9/22 128.5 Fasted most of the day and was very low calorie-less than 400 for the day. I wasn’t hungry so I didn’t eat.
9/23 128.5 Out to b-b-q yesterday for OMAD. I stopped myself before I felt stuffed. They sprinkle some seasoning mix on before serving and that tasted really salty to me. 🤷♀️ Not concerned.
9/24 129.0 Ate to my plan but had a vodka and seltzer. 4 oz beef brisket, 1.5 ounces of cheese. No TMIx3, tomorrow is my art quilt group. Today Great Greek.
9/25 128.5 Art Quilts, etc today It was a good day
9/26 128.5 I’m satisfied with this. I may have my head around it finally.6 -

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.
9/21: 118.6 Mmmm- Do you think even though I finally started menopause I could have a monthly TOM like period? I have had a headache for a week and went on a chocolate binge- Pathetic Chocolate Binge- Pathetic! I found Peppermint Chocolate Bark! I hope is only 1 year old but judging by its location could be 2- And I ate it! - the day before yesterday and yesterday...Eeks...I did wake up this morning finally headache free and feel well rested which I have not felt well rested in months so that is awesome. So whatever this time of month is called when you reach menopause is finally over. No pickleball last night- I had my investment club over, so had to ride spin cycle last night. Hope weather is nice tonight so I can play while we still have sunlight in the evening.
9/22: 116.8 Ok! I think pickleball is really incredible exercise! Played last nigh against several very good 20 somethings last night all higher ranked and because of age it is a different game. I did not believe my apple watch for calories burn - but all my winner shots they return because they move so fast and go for them so the back in forth were intense and so much fun. I kept up and played maybe like a 40 year old. But that is my only explanation for my weight loss. I came home put my pjs on watch another episode of my Netflix Korean rom-dram (Crash Landing) and went to bed slightly hungry. Mmm think about what I wrote yesterday - again I am about 9 months into finally being menopausal- wonder if I could have been even bloated? Well need to figure out maintaining now...
9/23: Migraine went back to bed
9/24: 117.4 Yesterday started bad- with a massive migraine...I am lucky I have medication (Rizatriptan) that really works for me, but it takes 3 hours to kick in fully- So missed my weigh in yesterday. After feeling better-again I am so lucky that I felt so much better after, I went and played several hours of pickleball, put together my deck furniture table, and called all my siblings to discuss my mom's healthcare. Have so many decisions to make and need to get out of my compartmentalized brain and deal with some global life issues which are easy for me to ignore. Look forward to catching up on all of your days later, I need to go to church and pray for some guidance right now.
9/25: 120.4- There is a Brothers Osborne song, It Ain't My Fault" I love, that sprung to mind this morning after I weighed myself. Blame my weight gain on the pizza, Blame the pizza on the beer etc... I wish I was talented enough to keep going...But indulged yesterday on a lot of salty food and overrate. So fun, fun, fun, I need to overcorrect the next few days. We will see how that goes. So many things on my list of things to do. figuring out my mom's healthcare, my daughter, who is a little lost right now, has reached out, but this tough love is hard, need to get my finances in order for lawyer , oh and did I mention the broken toilet (I have others and I have water but just another item on key list of things todo)... and still need to work my job. Doing a weight workout now seems far more attractive than my list of things to do.
Sorry this is such a whine fest,,,I can blame it in the migraine that lasted all night long ( hee hee still ripping on my song). Once I start tackling my list I will be better.
9/26: 119.8 Busy yesterday, squeezing in my personal list of things to do with my work things to do...my toilet less then year old so Kohler sending out new flushing section-check. Called CalPers about my mom, no help- but called care home she lives in , administrator sending me some info- so in progress- hopefully can get the largest project started my finances organized. Writing its down here, planned weight training today.

@Anabirgite You are fitting so much into your life and doing so well managing it all. I just wanted to tell you to be kind to yourself too and show you some love & support. {{{hugs}}}. You are doing great!4 -
@quiltingjaine, You are correct. Most doctors DO NOT want to help you if you are diabetic. Partly because people are complacent and believe they will always be diabetic. They will only help you if they realize you are helping yourself. Also, what I think is ludicrous, they tell you to lose weight, but eat carbs and not just fruit and vegetable carbs. My husband lost 10lbs last month and his doctor said that was too much. I told him it was not too much. BTW, SHE is overweight.5

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.
9/21 - (Mass) 125.4 all tracked yesterday and were at “weight loss” numbers. It would be good if I can do this for these next few days before I travel.
9/22 - (Mass) 125.6 still easier to post from laptop, but this seems to be working, and glad I am getting used to it. Have to entertain tonight. Calories will be a little dicey, and I am already hungry at 7 am.
9/23 - (Mass) 126.0 - Renpho - Yes, the entertaining had me eating a little more than planned as the guests brought unexpected items and I felt that I should respect their efforts. Today will actually be my more challenging day as there are lots of leftover sweets. Already had two cookie bars as “breakfast”. I may need to put them down the disposal.
9/24 - (Mass) 126.8 - Renpho - I handled the leftover sweets relatively well. Gave lots away in limited portions to not cause others dietary harm, but I did eat 3 or 4 total along the way. during the day was out with parents doing medical equipment shopping and they wanted fast food on the way home. I made a reasonable selection. Got home, and went on a bender that lasted until I went to bed. Bummer. Today will be in control and as will tomorrow. Travel begins tomorrow evening.
9/25 - (Mass) 126.2 Calories went well yesterday. Try to balance today as I would normally have had my regular three meals. But flight leaves a little after 9 PM and they plan to serve dinner (what at 10 pm?) and then it appears they will also serve a breakfast that will be at the equivalent of 2:20 AM to me. I am debating just turning down their late night dinner. Maybe have the dessert? I know this is only one day of the trip, but I could do lots of damage in two weeks if I am not thoughtful.
9/26 - DNW made it to Scotland. Not sure I slept last night, and dining times were all off. But I’m very hungry for dinner having last eaten at 7 am Glasgow time (on the plane)

09/26 -187.6- (Trend weight 190.1) It was a very good food day yesterday. I took it a bit easy on the exercise because I hadn’t felt very well the night before with my glucose being normal but feeling so low to me (I’m not used to it being in the “normal” range). I did get on the exercise bike but just strolled leisurely, nothing intense. I find at times, especially when watching my carbs, that I have a hard time getting in enough calories. Even though healthy fat foods are higher in calories, this is still the case. I worked hard to tweak my MFP food logging and fit in what I needed. The goal is to keep it more on the healthy side, and not just anything to make the numbers work. I don’t want my metabolism to slow down so it’s important that I get the calories as correct as possible. I’m still experimenting with the zig-zag for the weight loss. So far it’s going okay. The NSV for today is that my clothing is fitting like it’s supposed to, I’m not squeezed in or poured into the new lower sizes I’ve changed into over the past year. I need to start measuring again. Maybe I’ll start at the beginning of the month or thereabouts.

Because of poor circulation, I've been having problems with water retention. I guess I'm holding onto about 10 lb of water. Just doesn't want to release, once it does my weight will show an good amount of weight loss. I've been sick the last few days, unable to eat much. I thought because of not being able to eat, I'd really show weight loss, guess not. I'm happy with what I've lost, I just want all the excess water to be gone.
9/22: 294.8 (-3.4 lb) Finally some of the excess water is coming off.
The last few days I haven't been feeling good and not eating much. It has been nearly a week since I started feeling poorly, hpefully I'll start feeling better soon.
9/23: 291.4 (-3.4 lb) Most of the lbs I'm losing is water weight. My legs are going down from how swollen they were. Few more days and then hopefully the excess water weight will be gone. Just happy it's finally started to release from my body, after months of being swollen. I keep a gallon jug of water by me, to remind me to continue to drink water. Don't always drink the whole gallon, but most times I do. Most be working. 😸
9/24: 284.6 (- 6.8 lbs) I know!! This is a shock. 😱 But, a good one. 😂
I got on the scale and then off the scale again. Once it shut off, I started over again each time. The scale said (talking scale) the same weight each time and this is a brand new scale. The only thing I can think of is my body is finally starting to release more of the excess fluid it's been retaining. The spot on the back of my right leg, just above the knee, has been swollen so bad and it's starting to go down. I'm grateful my body is starting to release the fluid, that it's held onto for several months. Still have some more fluid that needs to come off, hopefully, in the next few days or weeks my body will release the last of the fluid. I think all the lbs I've lost over the last three days has mostly been from the fluid coming off. 😸
9/25: 286 (+1.4 lbs) This is from dinner last night and I know to never have pasta for dinner. For some reason when I do my weight goes up the next morning. I'm ok with this, it'll come right back down. Since I was sick for over a week and barely ate, sometimes I didn't eat anything for the day at all. I was craving some pasta and now cravings over. Back to healthy eating again.
