12/11 - 156.9 - We arrived home Saturday night, late. I weighed in yesterday lower than expected but believe that has to do with being quite dehydrated. Between salt last night in dinner and working on pushing fluids, I'm very much up today. It's okay, it'll drop off here soon. BF and I both woke up and ran this morning to get back into the grove of things. We both know if we procrastinate, it'll never happen. Meals planned for the week as well, since I had to get groceries yesterday for the week. I've missed you all and I'm glad to be back

About me: 5'7/F/41
HW: 327 in 2010
HW on MFP: 301
CW: 265ish
GW: 260 by 2/7/24
GW2: 240 by 8/1/24
UGW: 18512/8: 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 π 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?
12/11: Holiday party πͺπ₯§π₯π§βοΈπ Buckle up, buckeroos--this will be a long one. 262.8 this morning. Last night I got a wild chocolate craving and finished an entire chocolate bar (supposed to be 3 servings in a bar). It wasn't even a desire to taste chocolate; it was like my chocolate levels were low, like iron or vitamin c, and instead of anemia or scurvy i was in danger of getting whatever you get when your body doesn't have enough chocolate molecules. I guess i better start putting cocoa powder into some capsules and taking two with my breakfast like I do all my other meds π
On another subject, i have figured out a new boundary for myself. Normally for these holiday parties I push myself to outdo last year's effort and make something that people will get people talking. Making food has always been something that I have done well and where i find validation when i am not feeling great in other arenas. It's also kind of my time to shine; for some background, in my professional life I have a raging case of impostor syndrome even though I am a senior member of my staff, and my social life is limited due to various factors, so when a "food event" comes up, this is where I feel like I am able to thrive. This was the case with family growing up as well. However. Due to several events over the past year, I decided that not everyone gets my best efforts this year for Xmas. Rather than bringing a scratch-made side dish and dessert, I'm bringing chips and dip. I'll still make the dip myself, but they gets none of my casseroles or cakes this year. Which, to be honest--and this sounds pretentious and petty but i am confident enough to be able to say this--this is kind of a passive-aggressive act of retribution on some of the people in this group, because I know they're expecting something over the top from me. I almost never go for that eye-for-an-eye stuff but I've really had it the last few months and have not said anything to keep the peace. They won't go home crying but I will feel better. Tl;dr: I have decided not to overextend myself for people who do not do the same for me/do not take my feelings into consideration (this is related to food because, at least for this party, I am not being driven to make food and cooking decisions out of fear that I won't be valued. Merry Xmas to me πππ).

It was an enjoyable weekend socially, not the greatest as far as eating well and moving, so it's time to get back on track. There's only a week left to get everything done in preparation for the cruise and my daughter's wedding. It's stressful. I'm hoping I'll be able to feel like everything is in a good place when we leave for the cruise so I can just enjoy this last hurrah with my little family. Lots of big emotions happening.6 -

I grew up in the SF Bay Area and remember this fantastic health and fitness trailblazer on the TV and my mom doing sit-ups along side him. Iβve been blessed with great role models.
@jspecies11 I grew up in Michigan and my mother also exercised with Jack LaLanne. She did the whole routine with him but what I remember most was the face exercises (to prevent wrinkles). I remember that we would laugh at her and she would make a joke of it, but she never missed doing them! Hmmmm.....maybe I should start those. She looked really good for her age!4 -
I must be just a little younger than you guys, or maybe a little older and my memory's just a little further gone. I remember Jack LaLanne on TV, but thatβs it. I don't remember any exercises or anything he said. I remember his wife being on the show, but I don't remember why. Did she exercise too?
I remember his blue coveralls cause my dad had some tan ones like that. They filled them out completely differently. And my dad was the strongest person I knew. Lol.5 -

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 didnβt eat a bite of it. I ate my own pre-planned food. It didnβt bother me at all. I love strong days! Iβm waiting for my whoosh (and a TMI would help!). Have a nice Sunday everyone.
12/11 -178.8- (Trend weight 180.6) I did it!!!! I hit a 178 which is my lowest weight in 5 Β½ yrs. Nowβ¦.. I admit that I made it by the skin of my teeth, but I feel like Iβve touched the moon and all other impossible things. I did well on my dietary plan yesterday but Iβm still SEVERELY lacking in exercise. Iβm still sick (today is day 9) and Iβm afraid that I wonβt be able to breathe if I try. My exercise bike, if rode casually, is a pretty safe bet. Iβll at least try to get some time on that today. I seriously want to do my walking video, maybe I could tryβ¦..

See what happens when you take a day off now and then to enjoy life?
Not much.
It's what you do the other 364 days that shows.

Goals- stay sober, stick to a fasting schedule (time frame not mentioned for fear of ED triggers)
Today was good! Stuck to fasting schedule, still sober, and, as I write this, working out at 7 PM on a Friday π
12/8 - weight 283.8
12/9- weight 279.8
Today was okay! I stayed sober, I had a gym date with my boyfriend, and I stayed in my fasting window. My boyfriend really wanted a specific restaurant for dinner, and because of my allergies, chicken shawarma was about the only thing I could do, so I got the meat with a salad and some hummus. Came in under my calories for the day, and I'm feeling good.
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.
12/11- 276.2
I did end up eating last night and also didn't stick to my fasting window today. I also tried to go to the gym today, but my heart issues interrupted that. Everything else I may have fallen short on today, but at least I'm still sober! That marks 10 days, the longest I've been sober in almost two years. I also got a good job offer today, which is a huge relief. I'm eating like *kitten* today and not crushing my workouts, but I'm at least employed and sober. I'll call that progress.

12/8 SW- HW 230 - Day 1 is always easy. (I've had a lot of them.) Day 10; now that will be the challenge.
~ I started a new healthy eating plan today, increasing protein to satisfy my appetite. Logging food and exercise for accountability. I'm six weeks out after my 2nd knee replacement. I have a mini-goal to be a size 14 (now sz 22) by our 50th anniversary Oct '24.
12/9 - HW 231- Day 2 Okay so I did 'almost' everything wrong today.
~ The good - I did do 20 min of exercise upon waking, and I walked 1/2 mile around the grocery store.
The not optimal - I didn't eat breakfast, ate fast food for lunch, and didn't reach my Protein goals.
The great! Tomorrow is another chance to prove to myself I can do this!

12/10 ~230- Day 3 ~ Todays word is Consistency
~ Today was a milestone in my knee recovery. I walked my first full mile around the neighborhood. It was difficult and painful, (we live on a hill with 5% to 16% grades), I'm sure I'll feel it tomorrow. 1.16 miles in 38 minutes. I also logged every morsel that went into my mouth and met my protein goal with a few calories in the bank. Yes!!!
12/11 ~ 229 - Day 3 ~ What the heck?
~ Today was a struggle with food, ugh! I woke up late, had a cup of coffee, and didn't think about food until 2p when I couldn't find anything that sounded good. So brilliant choice (not) I scarfed down two hot dogs with buns. Didn't enjoy it when I ate it and 3 hours later was still wondering why. So, started logging my food and realized I was not going to meet my protein needs. Ended up eating yogurt with extra protein for dinner and peanut butter on an English muffin for a snack and I saved the day. Wow.

About Me:This is my sixteenth 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). I recently started working full-time (after over 23 years as a SAHM) so my time to exercise is now limited.

UGH, I had filled all of these out but hadn't posted it yet and then my computer restarted so I lost all of my comments. It's been a long few days.
12/8 - 211.2 - 9526 steps
12/9 - 212.4 - 8652 steps
12/10 - 213.0 - 8633 steps
12/11 - 212.6 - 8365 steps - This week has been ugh. I think part of the reason my weight keeps fluctuating so much during my work weeks is my legs--especially my knee--get very sore and swelled up from being on my feet all day. So I start retaining water. On top of that, I'm just super hungry when I get home so I just munch on anything I can find which has been screwing everything up. I know I'll eventually figure out something that works with my new schedule, but it's hard. I feel like I'm doing so much more during the day, but I'm not really doing much more steps than I did walking for an hour and a half each day. But I'm on my feet for 7.5 hours/day now. Today was absolute chaos at work. I was on my own starting at 3:30 and I did not slow down at all, not even for a moment to catch my breath or get a drink--until my co-worker called me at 5:30 (a half hour past my lunch break) to say she probably wasn't going to make it in. I told her I would close early and get to lunch at 5:45. That did not happen because as soon as I hung up, there were people waiting at the counter. It was 6:21 when I finally closed the department and clocked out for lunch. And even after I closed, people kept coming up to the counter wanting stuff despite seeing the lights off and that I'm cleaning. Ugh. At least I ate all the Veggie Straws yesterday so I was not tempted to stuff my face from the stress when I got home.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 244 (my 174th. Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to, hopefully lose a pound, get resting heart rate back under 50 beats a minute, then longer term goal to keep under 140 for holiday abroad (28 days!).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, itβs taken me 75 rounds to achieve target of 130 = 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.

The damage from the Christmas open house last night should be minimal. I was able to engage with people more than the buffet. My overall calorie budget for the day was just barely broken, but the sodium budget was shattered.
After that I attended my DGS Christmas program at school. Did I mention that I also have a new DGD, born 17 days ago?
I have an upcoming beach vacation. I need to lose some inches around the waist so people will not try to roll me back into the ocean to save my life. Thatβs annoying π
12/9: 223.8
/yes, every bite; group fitness class/
I consider it a victory that my scale reading stayed level after that salted-calorie-festival of a diet yesterday. All I can say is, it would have been worse had it not been for food logging on the MFP app.
Thanks to those who had kind words about my return. I have been participating in this challenge off and on since 2019, with great results when I pay attention.
12/10: 225.8
/food logged; walked/
This jump up has to be water retention from sodium. (Combined with some catch-up from Friday.) My calorie count has been good.
12/11: 225.4
/logged; a few floor exercisesβ¦/
Mostly sitting yesterday. Church, football on television (for my European friends, I donβt mean soccer.)
Oh, and TMI is real.
12/7: 223.2
Starting weight at end of last round.
12/12: 224.2
/yes; yes. Group exercise/
Been having trouble sleeping through the night. I basically just get up at 4:00AM after tossing and turning for an hour. I donβt drink caffeine after lunch. I wonder if I should just kick caffeine altogether, but I do love my morning cup of Joe. I need to switch it up somehow.
