Nice walk. Solid 🏋️♀️. Enjoyed taking my DGS Christmas shopping.
Worked on developing a fully integrated/documented fitness routine - was to begin 1/1/24 (hard scheduled). But…. WILL START TODAY! Why put it off? Will do measurements today and head to the gym. (I just made a fresh commitment to myself!)

12/9 ⚖️. 131.4 I won’t pretend like that weight didn’t bother the hell out of me-for about THREE MINUTES… I was 100% on plan yesterday and ate under goal. The NSV? ⚖️won’t ruin my day… So…. Let’s stick with my continued commitment to weigh every day and see just how my scale swings… To really know my body and its fluctuations is to love my body-RIGHT?! I know I’m following the process, so I won’t be deterred… ! (But gosh… I do hate that scale… I do I do I do!)
✅macros & cal 1290, 🚶♀️3.1k, 🏋️♀️15 min, 💗Z2 - 12 min, 🔥42 active cal
Movement yesterday was cut short because I strained my back ST 🏋️♀️early in morn. (I did not properly warm-up!) But that 15 minutes was awesome! Therefore, I really couldn’t exercise, so I decided to limit my cal. I will be active today -back is good and my foot feels 💯!
12/8 Yesterday - Good day but no real activity due to unforeseen meetings. ✅macros & 1443 cal. 🚶♀️5.6k.
Im noting I’m loosing some commitment to workout. This is a WARNING ⚠️ SIGN!! Cold weather does a number on me. Must move ONWARD no matter my “feelings”.
NSV: I’ve tracked 150 days in a row!! Staying mindful.

Health Journey
1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs
UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)
In Aug 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 1/1/2015. Weight topped @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-137lbs. Three more solid years.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 140lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 12/22.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. 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 and fitness. My forever 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 relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.
I also noticed that as I aged it became much MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could loose 15lbs easy in 6 to 8 weeks up to my 60s … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

Just trying to be healthy. Weight loss is an extra bonus.
Eventual weight goal = 164
12/8 = 177.8 more than I've weighed in a few months. Nursing a mad Gall bladder and upset tummy.
Life happens. Doesn't mean I'm quitting. Just means I'm taking a few personal days.
Today's better. I walked today.
12/9 178.2 7 pounds up in 10 days. Walked yesterday. Ate good all day. Still not asleep at 2 am. Got up and ate bad until 6 am. Went to bed and slept til 11. Slow progress. Held it together all day. Next, tackle the night.
12/10 178.6 walked twice as far as usual, slept well. Overate.9 -
Round 243
Dec 8 – Dec 17, 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
12/8 – 127.2 Yesterday was good. I tracked the full day, made good choices, and hit proper numbers. Working on getting my head in place. On a another note, DH spoke with me yesterday about helping him with MFP again once we get through the holidays.
12/9 – 128.0 Scale is being a twit. I feel great today. Yesterday’s pre-tracked lunch plan went to heck when the omelet from the “all day breakfast” turned out to be weekend only. I need to read better. I ended up with a much more caloric buffalo chicken fingers with fries, cole slaw, blue cheese dressing. Those were the best chicken fingers I may have ever had. Skipped the slaw, though I love it. Had seltzer, but the rest got eaten (did skip a FEW fries). Got home. Adjusted my tracking and had a simple salad for dinner, and and evening stella doro “biscuit”. Happy with how I handled the day. Today SHOULD be straightforward, though I don’t have a full plan as yet. But I will track.
12/10 – 128.8 Yup, yesterday started fine, then ended off tracked and un-tracked. Today will be better.

I'm Julie. 35 years old. SAHM to 2 year old twins. 5'3.
Ultimate goal: 125
SW RND 244: 137.7
12/8: 137.3. I've been really tired lately because one of my boys has been having a hard time with sleeping. So I haven't been going to the gym as much as I should, skipped it yesterday so I could get some extra sleep. My food has been good. I've really been enjoying OMAD. It's easier to refrain from snacking if I just tell myself "it's not my eating time right now. I'm a bit disappointed that my weight isn't following suit, I'm still counting calories and staying under my goal.
12/9: 137.1. Still holding on to some PMS bloat. I wasn't able to go the gym because we took away pacifiers from our boys. I usually go when they're in bed, but didn't feel like I should leave my husband alone to deal with the angry boys. It took them over an hour to cry themselves to sleep
It really broke my heart. Food wise, it was okay. It's never perfect on my husband's days off of work. Today probably won't be too great either.
12/10: 137.5. I'm honestly surprised it's not higher. I did not stick to OMAD yesterday and portion sizes were a bit larger than they needed to be. Didn't go to the gym again last night, as were still adjusting to the boys not having their binkies and I wanted to be home for it.

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. And, I think it's working.
I need to remember: Enjoy the process. Don't fixate on the outcome. I'm planning on taking a December 31st progress pic of my pants to keep me focused this month and not backslide. I don't need to care what I weigh as long as they still fit and hopefully they'll fit even better.
12/8 macros ✔️ steps ✔️ ST ✔️ leisurely bike/reading ✔️
12/9 macros ✔️ steps ✔️ ST ✔️
12/10 macros ❌ calling it a treat day and not dwelling on it. And the treats gave me energy for lots of fun movement: Steps ✔️ bike ✔️ ST ✔️

R144 I’m taking a break from weighing or tracking food the next two rounds, but will check in nonetheless because I enjoy reading your posts. 😊 I’ll probably return to normal programming in round 246. I had hoped to end the year no higher than 2022, but at this point that seems unlikely, so I’m working on accepting that I’ve gained weight this year, not beating myself up, and getting back on track.

Good morning! My morning schedule has switched around a bit and I forgot to check in the past couple of days. As planned, I'm not weighing this round and am not tracking food except in my head. So far, I feel slightly less obsessed. 🤪 Now to read through all your inspiring posts from the past two days!

12/07 …..179.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/08 -179.0- (Trend weight 181.0)
12/09 -179.6- (Trend weight 180.9) My “Foodie” daughter and DGS I babysit hasve been staying the weekend with me since Thursday Evening. She won’t be leaving until Sunday evening. She is a size Double Zero. She buys all the junk, brings it in, then picks at it and eats practically nothing. And I have that deep seated issue of not wasting food! I’ve got to stop being the garbage disposal. Today I will tell her what’s on MY menu for myself and politely ask her to not offer me anything out of her never-ending Mary Poppins bag.
12/10 -179.6- (Trend weight 180.7) I stuck to my guns yesterday and my daughter understood and did not offer me one thing from the goodie bag. I made a big dinner for her, my son and my DGS. I didn’t eat a bite of it. I ate my own pre-planned food. It didn’t bother me at all. I love strong days! I’m waiting for my whoosh (and a TMI would help!). Have a nice Sunday everyone.

My third round! Still excited and seeing some early results! *Note to self: over the past twenty years you have ably demonstrated that you know absolutely nothing about weight loss or exercise other than you need to do both. Don't convince yourself that you know ANYTHING, having lost a pound or two. Read other peoples struggles and successes. Glean what you can! LISTEN! Be patient! Nothing changes if nothing changes. I can't change unless I am willing to do things completely foreign to me. Do'em anyway!

12/8: 265ish. Had to rush out this morning and forgot to weigh so that's what i weighed yesterday. Lunch will be a protein bar and an apple so tonight might be another whole bag of salad and chicken for dinner. Again, could be worse things.
12/9: 263.6! Almost to the 250s, land of nearly not-uncomfortable plane seats. On certain airlines 😂 Sneaky Xmas shopping today under the guise of grocery shopping.
12/10: 263.4. Hubby made a delicious chicken stir fry with gochujang last night. I could drink gochujang in a shotglass. The kind i bought was pretty low in calories so that might be a possibility. I'm thinking about everything else i could put it on--maybe make beef jerky with it in the Ninja Foodi?

Goals- stay sober, stick to a fasting schedule (time frame not mentioned for concern for ED triggers)
12/8- weight 283.8
12/9- weight 279.8
12/10- weight 279.6. had a good Lazy Sunday with my boyfriend (though we did manage to get some work done around the house first). I just finished a workout and have stuck to my fasting window well! I'm debating extending it because I'm still feeling good and I'm not terribly hungry. I'm trying to be smart, though, and not overexert myself fairly early on. I'll probably make some scrambled eggs or something just for the sake of not pushing too too hard right now.

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. And, I think it's working.
I need to remember: Enjoy the process. Don't fixate on the outcome. I'm planning on taking a December 31st progress pic of my pants to keep me focused this month and not backslide. I don't need to care what I weigh as long as they still fit and hopefully they'll fit even better.
12/8 macros ✔️ steps ✔️ ST ✔️ leisurely bike/reading ✔️
12/9 macros ✔️ steps ✔️ ST ✔️
12/10 macros ❌ calling it a treat day and not dwelling on it. And the treats gave me energy for lots of fun movement: Steps ✔️ bike ✔️ ST ✔️
12/11 macros ✔️ steps ✔️ bike ✔️ yoga before bed ✔️ Posting now because I've got a busy Monday morning and early bedtime tonight. I had a great weekend. Why did I put off my goal of reading on the stationary bike for so long? I love it! It was given to us by friends moving away and I used it a lot at first, but since then it's sat in the corner collecting dust. It has a little desk and back rest so not one like a spin class but I put the resistance all the way on low and read my book and 30 minutes flies by. Also, I'm finding it easier to focus with my feet moving. I have a new favorite corner.
