🏈🦃🍁10 more days🍁🦃🏈
I’m 65 years young, working on the last 10 pounds. November brings many birthday celebrations, and of course, Thanksgiving. Food during this month is not as big an issue for me as the empty calories of sipping wine 🍷 with friends. These next few days my goal is to have fewer 🍷 glasses on my daily reports, which will then equal fewer pounds at the end of 10 days! Good luck everyone!

Thank you, thank you thank you for posting this!!! And CONGRATS!
I’m at that stage where I want to change my body composition and letting go of the scale! I’ve been fixated on “weight” for so long… And letting go of that number is such a HUGE deal! You continue to inspire me to focus on 🏋️♀️, stretching and agility. I’m ready to go! My challenge is to try not to freak out 🎢 when the scale goes up or stays the same. My next “InBody” is January 1. Goal is to lose 3 lbs of fat and gain 3lbs of muscle.
You go girl💪🏻🙌🏻🔥😎

Working on healthier eating habits and controlling my sugar addiction which has been going well this past week. I have prepared every meal that I took to work and ate at home. 11/17 was so stressful at work, 👩🏽⚕️ - Pediatrics, that after my shift I had 3 glazed doughnuts and a Jersey Mike’s sub. I didn’t regret the doughnuts but every calorie from the sun I wanted to hit “delete.” I am here for support and to support. Excited to have found this community to hold me accountable!

Jen; 46; 5'4"
About Me:This is my fourteenth round and really appreciate 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. We live in the Pacific Northwest where we're entering the rainy season which makes walking a lot harder, and it's my main form of exercise right now. I do have access to gym equipment at our HOA clubhouse, but I still have to walk there and back (takes about 9 minutes).

* OR go to the gym and do 15 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes on the treadmill
* DAILY exercise is being suspended as I've started working full time and I'm currently sick with an annoying cold... I'll try to do my walks or time at the gym on my days of (once I'm not sick anymore)

11/18 - 216.0 - no exercise - Worked for four hours today. About an hour and a half on the computer and then the rest behind the meat/seafood counter. It was a littler overwhelming, but we closed early because several people called in sick and the only person left that knew what they were doing had been there since like 5am or something. So I worked until 5. Then got home and found my husband had made burgers for dinner in the cast iron pan. The kitchen was a mess. So I spent an hour unloading the dishwasher (my 13yo did help with that without me even asking), then cleaned up from dinner, washed the pans and cleaned the counters and stove. I finally sat down to eat my own meal at 6. And again, I feel stuffed. Like so full, I feel sick. And I had less than last night or the night before. Not sure what's going on with my stomach, but I guess I'll have to cut back portions so I don't feel sick at work (I was eating the food I had taken for my lunch break). Overall, it was a good day.

11/18: 267--resting today. Slept in and decided to keep that going, so I just left to do necessities and got right back into pajama mode. Made chopped chicken breast and broccoli over a baked potato for dinner and it was exactly what i needed. I'll be off work most of next week so maybe will feel like being more active when I'm not using all my downtime recuperating from being at work 💙

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 242 (my 172nd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to get into 138s solidly, hopefully lose a pound and keep heart rate under 50 beats a minute, then longer term goal to get back to 135 in time for Christmas (just over 5 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.

I hope everyone is doing well and having success working towards their health goals. 😊 I have been struggling with binge behaviours for the last couple of months and also having a hard time getting to my exercise and other wellness activities. I have been struggling with depression, extreme fatigue, and my fibro is acting up so I have been dealing with very bad neck/shoulder pain. A few days ago my weight went over 150 lbs whereupon luckily I was slapped in the face with reality. I knew I had to take some positive actions, before things spiral completely out of hand. I know through experience that I will be back up to at least 250 lbs in no time. (I was 130 in July.) So I started with some small steps, and was reminded by a friend (from here!) that I need to hang in there, which is why I decided to come back to this group. 😊 I’ve outlined quite a few items to track, above, and I know I won’t be successful in all of them, but they will be good reminders to me that these are the things I want to incorporate into my life in order to be healthy, not only for “the number on the scale” but also for my mental health, which to me has slowly become equally as important. So have a good day everyone! Let’s do this!!

11/18. Was up most of the night the night before, so yesterday I dragged all day. Whats up with my sleeping patterns? ?!! I managed to get in a pretty good fat-burning work out yesterday but my steps were 🚫5k, ✅cal, macros, 65 min ex , 43 min cal 🔥 in Z 3. Stretch /agility.
11/19 Yesterday: 🚫 Steps5k, ✅cal, macros, 61 ex min, 20 min Z3,🔥485 cal, 🏋️♀️20 min with DGS. We also played 30 minutes of basketball and it was so much fun! Very hard for me to stay in Z2&3 HR. Beautiful day!
NSV: Chose to walk with my grandson, taking our two pups to the vet and then picked them up an hour later… Before this journey, would’ve easily used the car. Walking with my grandson provided more great 1:1 time with him and 3k steps.

HW 172lbs in 2010.
UG 130lbs ceiling
(+ 3lbs muscle/-3lbs fat) Next InBody 1/1/2024
In Aug 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take control of my health. I lost 30 pounds by 1/1/2015. Weight topped @ 130-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
2020 - 2021, I fluctuated between 130 - 135lbs. Two more good years.
2022 crept up to 140lbs by 8/1. Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held steady till 12/31.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15. 15lbs BOOM! Just enjoyed eating way too much! Started tracking. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are!
I learned my choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight/fitness trends. My goal is to reach 130lbs as a ceiling. Pretty clear to me that once I reached my 60s, I would reach a goal weight and then go backwards. Thank goodness 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.

11/18: 137.5. I expected to be up a bit today. I went out to eat last night, and tried to carb load for the Spartan race I'm doing today. I definitely perform better when I eat the day before a big event.
11/19: 138.5. Again, not surprised. I did a Spartan race yesterday, and indulged in a big meal afterward. I'm also a little sore. Definitely some water weight at play.

11/19 - I went over my calories by a good bit yesterday. The culprit was some honey roasted peanuts that hubby brought. Soooo many calories for hardly any food. But I kept going by and grabbing a palmful. He's going to have to put those in his work truck and take them to work. I'm too new at this to have tempting high cal food in the house.
We also worked really hard on our house yesterday. We have some minor remodel projects plus trying to get some deep cleaning done because we have family coming Saturday for thanksgiving (our 2nd one.) For the last few years I haven't had the energy for deep cleaning and we haven't really been able to have people over, but the house, and thereby we, are suffering. So it's all hands on deck. The good news about deep cleaning is that I'm up and moving more. Bad news is that I get very sick (fibromyalgia) every time I'm overly active, and if course there's a super fine line there.
I didn't "exercise" yesterday but I was on my feet and moving for the majority of the day. I burned over 400 calories just in steps and not counting standing and lifting things. Got a lot more work to do today, too.
Previous Comments:
11/18 - I ended Round 241 yesterday at 244lbs. And woke up to 241.2lbs this morning. I've been constipated for a few days and now I'm not. Chalking the drastic change up to that. Beginning today I want to add exercise to my program. I have somewhat limited mobility so I'm only going to aim for 15 minutes per day. The low goal is doable for me and motivating when I get it done. I plan to add 5 minutes a week until I get where I want to be. Excited for another round. It really feels like I can do anything for 10 days! 💪👏🥳7 -

Weird to intentionally not weigh myself in the morning. I’ve been doing it almost every day for so long! It’s a beautiful, chilly, sunny Saturday here, and I’m about to head out for a walk and then a little garden cleanup. Then a friend is coming to give me a Cocker Spaniel grooming lesson — whole new kind of coat for me after decades of Labrador Retrievers and Australian Shepherds. Then maybe some housecleaning? Nah! Happy weekend, all!

I feel very lazy today. I just want to lie in bed and read and knit and nap. But first, a walk, and some tidying up. Pretty bad, huh?

I'm 30F and committed to wondering less about the scale and wondering instead about how great it's going to be when my daily healthy practices are so normal that it would be weird not to do them, even on vacations or holidays. It has been nice so far. This round is the big test.
Also, I've gotten a lot of inspiration from pages like this one showing how muscle is so important over scale weight to get me to eat more calories and ST more with these before and afters https://www.boredpanda.com/same-weight-fitness-transformations/
SW RND 242
11/18 128.0 That's 7 pounds down since I started here! macros ✔️ ST ✔️
11/19 Macros ✔️ steps ✔️ I promise I'll be able to show my pants soon, 😂 I've got pics from Aug. 31 and Oct. 31 and the progress has been slow but is actually happening thanks to holding myself accountable to y'all. So if I can keep myself on track throughout this week it'll be Nov. 31 pants check!

Oh the Turkey day round, what fun,. This should be interesting. I wander, do people just skip this round? lol. No guts no glory, lets do it to it . I'm not much for the holiday gluttony these days so I feel pretty confident that I can still lose a pound or two. We shall see. Best of luck to all.
SW RND 242 : 258.8 (-14.6 YTD)
Rnd 242 goal: -1.00 lb
11/18 258.8 This is the lowest I have been in a couple of years. I am down 14 on the year and feel like I have finally turned the corner. I would love to see 249 on new years day or less so who knows we have time. Weekends are always tough but I think this one will be fine. Monday morn weigh in will be good.
11/19 I really don't weigh daily as the wt. fluctuates so much. I will prolly weigh tomorrow. I am trying hard to log it and own it daily and its a struggle but I will keep at it. I had about 11,000 steps yesterday and some yard labor so that feels good. Fasted, ate well, prolly to much salt.See yall tomorrow. Have a great one.

11/17 …..179.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
11/18 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) Awake very early today with not enough time between my last food intake and this post so I did not weigh. Day trip today that is lengthy. I probably will not weigh tomorrow but I will post. Good luck everyone this round. It will be challenging for all those in the U.S.A. with the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. All we can do is our best and then focus on recovery. That’s my plan and I’m stickin’ to it.
11/19 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) I avoided the scale today after the traveling yesterday. With both lunch and dinner at restaurants, I just didn’t need to see the damage that I can feel. I have leftovers today so I’m trying to decide whether to eat them, freeze them, or possibly give them away if my foodie size 0 daughter comes by. Whenever I hit a new weight decade I usually teeter back and forth between the two decades (in this case 170s/180s) for a bit before finally and firmly settling into the new decade. This week complicates it with it being Thanksgiving week but I will be working very hard on it every day in-between. My large family Thanksgiving Dinner will be on Saturday. I’m not yet sure what my son and I will do on Thursday. All my other children will be with their in-laws. Ours is always delayed because I am the retired one and free most anytime.

Seeing as I’m back for another round I should introduce myself.I’m 45 years old and a tiny 5ft 2 inches. I’ve been married to my DH for 19 years and next year is our 20th anniversary. DH and I are parents to 2 DD who are in their late teens. I’ve made a commitment to get myself in check before I’m 50.

Ok, I really fell off there at the end of round 241. I also didn't realize that the round was over. I am back in for another round, starting today.
How I feel: like garbage, and I have for a whole week now. When we went on a short weekend with friends, we are terribly and I drank way too much. That just followed me into last week. My stomach has felt bloated for over a week now, just uncomfortable. I want to really clean up my diet this week. We have another fun weekend planned for the middle of December. Before that gets here, I'd like to feel better and carry some momentum into it.
I am going to get more aggressive this week, and being in this group is a great way to hold myself accountable.
With Thanksgiving this week, there is no better time for me to get myself really focused on my goal.
Goal: Feel better physically and gain some confidence over the next 9 days. I will do this through 1) eating a more healthy diet 2) doing at least 4 sessions of strength training 3) going for at least 4 walks and 5) posting here, every day.
I can do this. And I am excited to do this. (I say as I sit here drinking my second latte of the day...)
