11/18 - 149.6 - I had half a meatball sandwich last night, so no surprise. We're celebrating my stepdaughter's birthday with more Italian food tonight so I'm going to have to watch what I eat the rest of the weekend.

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! 💪👏🥳

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/

11/18 - DNW
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 see a couple of people have mentioned folks who would be new here. I think that’s wonderful! I have to say that when I have tried to search for ANYTHING on MFP, I’ve never gotten a result. Very frustrating! So, if you have friends who might be interested in joining us just send them this link.

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.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

🏈🦃🍁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💪🏻🙌🏻🔥😎

WHERE ARE YOUR PANTS?!?!!! 🤣🤣🤣

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!

Aiming to be more accurate with my calories, listen to my body, drink more water and move move move!

I won't be logging today. Will go for a walk with the big double pram this morning to even things out a bit 🥵💪

11/19 - 67.5kg (+0.4kg) - expected! Enjoyed a long hike with a friend this morning and back to the diary as planned 👌
