Round 239
October 19 - October 28, 2023

Please join us starting on 10/19 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 239.

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

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘This is NOT A DIET. Itโ€™s a LIFESTYLE

    SW RND 239 Not weighing until end of October when I hope to fit perfectly into my goal pants that are the symbol of fully re-commiting myself to daily moderation and a calm healthy lifestyle. At least, that's the plan.

    ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ•ท๏ธ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฆ‡10 day challenge ๐Ÿฆ‡๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•ท๏ธ๐ŸŽƒ

    Iโ€™m a 5โ€™2โ€, soon to be eligible for Medicare girl from the Pacific Northwest. My birthday is mid November and I would like to be in the 135-138 range as a gift to myself. Round 237 was a good start to moving the number on my scale in the right directionโ€ฆ 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. Letโ€™s do this!

    Hi, I'm Charissa

    Thank you, again, @QuiltingJaine for hosting this challenge!

    62 y/o female
    OSW 2022-03 230.3
    1SW 2023-01 221.8

    Previous Goals per Round
    Round 236, resumed my mandatory treadmill M-F 30 minute minimum!!
    Round 237, increased from 30 minutes to 40 minutes minimum!
    Round 238, returning to IF and adding healthy habits from Apple Watch promptings. 1 out of 2, IF left me very hungry this round so eating something small when I get hungry, then eating a reasonable lunch (under 300 cal) and saving the rest for dinner. I guess still IF, just shorter windows (about 14 hours). Closing more difficult rings on my watch = success!
    Round 239, Continue all of the above! Increase Water

    Goals This Round per Day:
    - Tracking to the best of my ability ๐ŸŽand staying under calorie budget (just say NO!)
    - Water (Goal 64 oz/SS and 96oz M-F) : โœ…
    - Closing my rings (which I've made a bit more difficult): ๐Ÿšถ๐Ÿฝ

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Donโ€™t stay away, stay accountable. We donโ€™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.

    This is NOT A DIET. Itโ€™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. ๐ŸŒŠ ๐Ÿ„โ€โ™€๏ธ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    Back for another round.

    Jen; 46; 5'4"

    About Me:
    This is my eleventh 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.
