You guuuuuuuys! I tried on my goal pants again and they almost fit! I became very excited and weighed myself to see that I'm actually two pounds HEAVIER than last time I tried them on when I thought I'd need to lose 15 lbs to fit in them again. Ha! I'm UP two pounds and DOWN two inches in my lower belly and my legs slide in nicely without any tugging. Woohoo to changing my my mindset and getting real payoffs. Thanks to all of you for your helpful reflections, insightful, and inspiring posts.13

🍁🏈This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE
I’m a 5’2”, soon to be eligible for Medicare girl from the Pacific Northwest. Took a “break” from weighing and logging over the last few months… always a mistake! Gained back 6 or 7 pounds. Round 237 was a good start to moving the number on my scale in the right direction… now to keep the motivation in high gear! So far my strategy includes lots of water and less wine, increasing my daily steps, at least 3 times a week strength training and no munching after dinner. Let’s do this!

Well, glad to be starting fresh for another round. No number goals this week, just consistency goals. Habits every day, meet my calorie and macro targets, and a strength workout at least 7 of the 10 days. I’ll be getting in an hour walk this afternoon, my daughter has a therapy appointment and there’s a really nice walk nearby. It runs right next to a little creek where platypus swim, so I’ll be on the lookout to see if I can spot another one this week. There’s not too many of them around, and they only come out at certain times of day so last week was the first time I’d ever seen one since moving to Australia. They’re pretty cute though! And if I have the energy when I get home, I’ll do a strength workout before my stretching routine.
Tues.10.10:
I did a happy dance after weigh in this morning. Even though I’m not focusing weight loss, this is the lowest weight recorded in my renpho app since the end of 2020 when I bought the scale.
Today will be a higher calorie day, but I’m planning a 5k+ walk along with my strength routine and stretching this evening, so should still be under. We are doing ravioli for dinner, so I won’t be surprised if there’s a small gain tomorrow with the gluten in the pasta.
I definitely have noticed a difference in my workouts too - everything is getting a bit easier so at least I’m not huffing and puffing my way through the entire workout now!
Weds.11.10:
Weigh in is exactly as expected. I have a dr’s appointment Friday for my hip. It’s not getting better, and I’m pretty sure enthesitis based on the pain and location, along with swelling. But maybe it’s something completely different. Idk, that’s why I’m going to the doctor 😂
Didn’t end up getting a strength workout in last night, so I will definitely be doing one tonight, along with a walk and my stretching routine.

Back for another round.
Jen; 46; 5'4"
About Me:This is my tenth 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.

SW: 237.4
GW (short term): 235
RGW: 234
10/9 - 236.2 - 2.68 miles (walk) - 4 miles (bike) - Had to hit the gym today because I waited too long to get out walking and it started to rain. But I got to watch Red vs Blue while I walked on the treadmill which always makes me happy. But a challenge approaches: my son was craving something pumpkiny and I remembered we bought a box of pumpkin bread mix so I'm making a loaf now. So much temptation. But I already gave into nibbling on Cheetos puffs (2 here, 2 there until it added up to half a serving... oops). I do still have calories left for the day so I could have a small piece but... I really shouldn't. Decisions, decisions.
10/10 - 237.0 - 2.54 miles (walk) - 3.9 miles (bike) - Worked out at the gym again today but took the long route (one of them) home because it had stopped raining when I left and was really nice out. And then I made salisbury steak for dinner and it turned out amazing this time. I really wish I could have more because it was that good. I guess I know what I'll have for leftovers tomorrow.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 238 (my 168th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, so grateful.
Still want to get back under 140 this round, and then longer term goal to get back to 135 in time for Christmas (11 weeks !).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.

10/9 142 – last day at DS’s for his & DGD’s birthday celebrations, a new week and a new round to make a difference.
10/10 143.6 – 9.18 miles walked, all exercise calories plus eaten back ☹. Self sabotage . Pre-logged known food for the day, out to lunch with DSs (3), but I know there are healthy options where we are going so already thinking of what I am having.
10/11 141.6 – that’s better! 8.63 miles walked, a little less than 50% exercise calories eaten back, made very sensible food choices. My walk yesterday was to and from my Covid booster appointment, deliberately booked at a venue far enough away to incorporate my walk, pleased to report no side effects of any kind 😊.

Round 238
Oct 9 – Oct 18, 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 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
10/9 – 125.4 Yes, it is 2:30 am and I am awake and my body thinks I overslept as it is currently 8:30 Amsterdam time and for two weeks I have not slept past 7 am. So yes, I am up, we will see how the day goes. Home scale, and number makes sense with my weight history of the past several days. Feels really good to be up and sipping my 16 oz cold decaf coffee as I type. My morning ritual was just not the same eating in foreign hotels with a tour schedule to follow. Yes, I am whining about getting to enjoy a lovely trip. But what a small thing to get to complain about. Anyhow, back to real life. Making my grocery list (will likely be there when it opens at 6 am). Will be checking in on my parents. I have heard there were some significant declines while I was away. I now have a straight stretch of almost 3 months living in one spot. Yay! Time to get my *kitten* together. Need to get my exercising back! (Did you see the latest MFP email? 7 min core workout and a 10 minute chicken dumpling soup – will be checking them both out.
10/10 – 125.6 Not properly tracking yet. Day is so skewed with me waking so early in the morning. Today’s weight likely best represents my “after” for my trip. I need to get back on a normal schedule. Hopefully tomorrow.
10/11 – 127.0 Ouch! Well that’s a reality check. Third morning in a row that I am awake for the day by 3 am. And, I am waking up hungry, then eating all day. I also still seem to have something slightly wrong with my stomach. As soon as I ate yesterday, I had stomach pain, which always makes me resort to more food to “make it feel better’. Have not sorted my tracking to accompany a days like these past two. Today will be busy and out of the house for 7 hours, so that should help with random eating, as my access will be limited.

Date/weight/comment
10/09 - 153.2 - I did not drink enough water yesterday and I had a turkey taco (sodium) for dinner last night. I'm hoping I can get back to starting weight in the next couple days.
10/10 - 153.2 - Sigh, I'm hoping to see the scale drop tomorrow.
10/11 - 152.7 - OK, I'm sticking to plan and starting to see my weight drop back down.

10/9 DNW Yesterday: 22k steps, 8.5mi hike, 1147 ex cal, ate 1395 ✅macros
10/9- Yesterday: Duck egg omelet for breakfast-delish! Steak burger lunch (no bread) & unfortunately SAME for dinner. I wanted grilled chicken last night but the restaurant was out of everything after a record weekend…. So just ate boring! Outstanding hike yesterday. Glorious sunset. Driving home today. Wonderful few days. Will not ⚖️tomorrow to give myself a day to reset. Long hikes provided ample time to reflect…. Invigorated. Ready for this Round!
10/10 DNW Yesterday: In the car, most of the day, slept well last night. Good to be home - looking forward to getting back in the groove and adding walking. ✅Calories and macros.
Fridge and pantry ✅ Already 24oz 💦 by 7am.
I certainly wish we had some hills nearby, but our topography is simply flat as flat can be… I’ve planned Tennis and to walk 4+ miles this evening. Get to spend time with my DGS this eve! 😎❤️

10/11 ⚖️134.0 ngl really thought ⚖️ would be lower but guess what?!…NO emotions here! The 🎢 has been DEFEATED! Weight is going down much, MUCH slower than I had anticipated based on past results so it’s preparing me for the maintenance phase… “Mother Time” … This is basically how I’ll live the rest of my days….Embrace it! SIX more lbs to go. I’m not so much focused on the “pounds” but just the way I want to feel including a closet of tight clothes waiting to be worn…
I’m most interested in losing fat/ gaining muscle … planning to start “targeted” strength training/lifting beginning 11/1… Let’s see what I can do between now and November 1st! My plan is to take 2-3 ST instructional classes to make sure my form is 💯 correct and then I’ll take it from there.
Tennis was canceled yesterday. I got in 12.3k steps, 60 ex minutes, 1223 cal, 500 move cal. Mac✅ Spent most of the day washing clothes… afternoon 4 mi walk. Settling in.
NSV: TBH, I look and feel like I’ve lost 15+ pounds… Getting a few compliments… Per the scale - only lost 11 (Counting a week before joining this challenge). I’m still positive.
Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻
