RND. 247: My Journey ~ Round 4
UGW 160lb (RND 278)
RND. 246 Ending Wt. 224lb
(Day 31) 01/07 - 224 lb.
I stayed under my 1450 calorie goal, minimal exercise, and only 48oz water. It is better than yesterday, not as good as tomorrow.
(Day 32) 01/08 - ??? lb.
I wish we could get a break in the weather; it’s rain, rain, and wind. My sister in Wyoming had 19 degrees – but it was sunny😎!
I’m not sure which I prefer.
Hopefully, my scale will be here tomorrow. I weighed 4 times this morning and was 224, 227.9, 222.5, and 226.3. I don’t know what to believe. My waistline does feel smaller, but I’m not fitting into the next smaller size, Yet! I measure next weekend, and excitement abounds!
(Day 33) 01/09 – 223.2 lb.
The scale arrived today, but not until late afternoon. I normally work from home but needed to go into the office this morning, so I took the opportunity to use the scale there. We’ll see what tomorrow brings. Hopefully something closer to 222.0. Other than that, I braved the wind and got my steps in between rainstorms. Yea! It will probably be an early night tonight; I want to put the ice machine on my knee to ease some pain.
(Day 34) 01/10 – 222.2 lb.
Yea! The scale works. Multiple attempts came back with the same answer. I started drinking hot water during the day instead of cold water, it seems to be helping. I skipped the walk today, I have a history of iliotibial band syndrome, and walking the hills is aggravating it. Unfortunately, when I leave the house it’s either up or down because we live on a very steep hill. So, I’ll keep hitting the ice machine, ibuprofen, and Aleve and try some yoga moves my sister suggested to stretch it out.(Day 35) 01/11 - ??? lb.
(Day 36) 01/12 - ??? lb.
(Day 37) 01/13 - ??? lb.
(Day 38) 01/14 - ??? lb.
(Day 39) 01/15 - ??? lb.
(Day 40) 01/16 - ??? lb.

Hi all, this is my 2nd round in a row. I lost 0.8 kg in the last one I hope I will continue to lose. I aim to lose 1 kg (2.2 lbs) in 10 days. But at the same time I know from my old experiences the second and third week is harder than first one. So even if I don’t lose weight I should continue.
SW 103.9 kg (229 lbs)
GW 102.9 kg (226.8 lbs)
UGW 75 kg (167.5 lbs)
RND 247 (my 2nd)
1/7 - 103.9 kg
1/8 - 104.4 kg (I have no idea what’s going on)
1/9 - 104.4 kg
1/10 - 104 kg
Last week I made 7000+ calorie deficit, exercised twice, increased protein intake and decreased carbs, I weighed most of the food I ate, drank only 1 pint of beer, fasted 16 hours everyday. Still I’m not sure it works. I’m the same as 5 days ago. I need to continue I know but it’s hard stay motivated.
1/11 - 103.5 kg Finally!

Hi it's Kelly, I was here a while back but now it's January again. I have to erase the 8 months of gains that I got when I was not holding myself accountable.
56 yrs 5'11" Living with heart failure and on medications that can cause fluid fluctuations if I forget to take them. (Oh yeah, diagnosed with ADHD but unmedicated because of the ticker) Limited exercise.
2024 SW 222---> Uncontrolled holiday eating and fluid retention I hope.
SW: 225.2----> but had reached one-derland in 2021 then had slow gain ever since.

NSV: 🏋️♀️- I DID IT! I actually listened to my Inbody scan, and made an appointment with an expert… Proud of myself for facing facts.

Another cold, windy day. Lazy, nice 🚶♀️in afternoon.
Today: meeting, 🎾, 🤸🏼🏋️♀️
I’ve upped daily cal intake to find out what happens… BMR is 1375… thinking 1500-1600 on non-workout days is maintenance . Macros MUST be in check. I’m not really counting calories, but they show up as I log macros… Trying to gain muscle& lose fat simultaneously is a huge challenge - perplexed. Daunted.
PREMIUM FOR YOU?! There was AC brief discussion regarding whether or not to upgrade to MFP premium… I highly recommend it… Customized Goals, Reports, trends, articles, notes. I find huge value if you want to use data to guide your efforts.
There’s also been brief discussion as to “obsessing” over / too much focus on your health journey, specific foods, etc. My thought: What’s more important than becoming who you want to be? Isn’t being mindful important? You have to WANT IT BAD though… 😎 Maybe “obsessing” is a step in the journey that must be taken… to get to the other side? Hmmmm
I guess I’m trying to pump myself for this next step…. I’m no longer obsessing over what to eat or what not to eat. I’m now obsessing over 🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️. Hahaha I also think all of us know what’s best for us individually. The challenge is finding the strength, discipline & fortitude to do the hard work! I’m working on multiple ✅s!
FYI: I use the Renpho scale. My BF% and Visceral fat is way off compared to the more accurate InBody scan.=(Worse)
Let’s GO! 🙌🏻💪🏻
1/11 Yesterday: ✅macros & 1803 cal, 🚶♀️7.5k, 80 total ex min, 🔥763 ex cal, 💗Z2 - 22min. ✅🏋️♀️10 min🤸🏼(with trainer)
I booked an FST (Fascia stretch therapy) with the trainer. Oh my! She stretched me like a noodle… (not really - too tight!) It was amazing! My body is so tight it’s scary. Gave me a good jump start to stretch 🙆♀️daily. 🏋️♀️Focus on upper body. What a journey…. Good day.
I ate more calories than anticipated yesterday… I had big protein twice. But I needed more protein yesterday, macros good.✅

Aug 14, 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 remained @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140 lbs.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 1/1/23.

📣#bestshapeofmylife 📣
The yo-yo is exhausting & unhealthy. Takes up way too much brain space.
I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to maintain approx. 130lbs and IN SHAPE. Pretty clear that once I reached a goal weight I would then relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.
I also noticed that as I age it becomes much, MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could lose 15lbs easy in 8 weeks up to 2020ish … This is absolutely not true anymore!
While active with 🚶♀️& 🎾 it’s clear a ST routine is absent. Time to incorporate ST 🏋️♀️ as my TRUE focus.

Today's realization:
Every thoughtful and self-loving step I take is changing my body and my mind. Weight loss is a result, but isn't the goal. Getting on the scale is a kindness, not a judgment. Measuring my food is information, not punishment. Time to care for myself as much as I care for everyone else I love.
Daily comments:
01/07- 142.6- positive start; feeling good about my choices right now. I know the initial drop will stop soon and then I'll level off; that's why it's good to have short term goals but keep the big picture in mind.
01/08- 142.6-(back to my pre-holiday weight. Let the games begin!)
01/10- 141.4- 14 days into my new routine; still in that positive first flush of losing (kind of like those early dating days-let's make this one the "keeper"
1/11- 141.4- no surprise there, dramatic losses post-holidays. I'm looking to lose about 1/2-1 lb/week and I've exceeded that. I'm prepared that I may rebound as well.11 -
36 YO – 5’6” stay at home mom to two little kids
About meI'm in this for a second go! I'm struggling with motivation at this point in the year, but the 10 day challenge definitely helped - hoping to keep logging, drink more water and keep getting in all of my vegetables! I work out plenty but I'm having an issue with staying below calories. Two small kids and a husband who are always snacking is not helping. I lost 20 lbs last year, have put 5 back on, and I don't want any more coming back! Hoping to lose 15 more this year.
SW Rd 246 164.6 EW 161.8 – completely cut out alcohol
SW Rd 246 164.6 EW 161.8
SW 160.9 RND 247
1/7 – 160.9 – injured my foot right at the beginning of a workout, ugh. Hopefully it heals quickly. Calories were a bit off yesterday because I decided to eat closer to maintenance.
1/8 – 160.2 – losing quickly which is strange, I’m still assuming it’s the holiday water weight shedding, because idk, not doing anything special. Walked a ton, stayed under calories because of all the walking, AF, forgot the green smoothie but had a ton of veggies
1/9 - 160.4 – happy with today
1/10 – 160.2 – happy with today
1/11 – 160 – goals – day off working out, clean, focus on nutrition and meal plan

Nothing changes if nothing changes; so what will be different this round?
First, keep your goals reasonable. Disappointment is a great gate to get to the "Poor Me" syndrome and junk food will quickly follow. One pound per ten days will get me to my goal in plenty of time to hike the PCT in 2025.
Second, record EVERYTHING, you can't change if you don't know what to change.
Third, and this is for ME, all calories are NOT the same; Carbs, for me, trigger strong urges and I don't want to spend much time fighting strong urges. Stick to a lowCarb-NoCarb regime.
Onward, Started this program at 203. Ultimate goal is 156. Starting this round at 194. Goal this round is 193 or 192.
01/07 -194
01/08 -194. Inchinhing my way to 193; I'm close!

SW RND 247
1/7 237.4 Started this round with a huge surge up. I took my husband for a night away to a lodge in the backcountry of the Rocky Mountains. We had some indulgences and it shows. Most of this will be water weight but it's time to get focused. We left the resort and did a nearly 8KM snowshoe hike before we came home so at least we got our activity today! Let's make some progress for this round!
1/8 239 Was really surprised to see another bump up today. I had a good day but rather than ride the bike tonight we got invited to have dinner at a friend's house last minute. The food was healthy enough.
1/9 235.2 Alright, there's the drop. I have a day of mostly unplanned food - a course where food is served, and then a corporate event with dinner out and then box seats at the Calgary Flames game. Will have to be smart about my choices.
1/10 235.6 Did good at the hockey game with the dinner out before last night. Came in just short of my steps. The deep cold is setting in here and there is lots of new snow that fell overnight.
1/11 237 Boy this round is all over the place. Last night I got home late as we're under an extreme cold warning, got snow, and the commute was long. So, I did miss my workout. I have therapy after work today so it'll be another long day out of the house with windchills that feel like -40C. Yikes!

I'm Julie, 35 year old SAHM to two year old twins.
SW RND 247: 137.2
1/7: 134.1. Not sure why I had the random spike yesterday, but I'm glad it came back down. I did a 6 mile run and eating was good. I had another sleepless night last night, thanks to one of my boys, so today is going to be another rough day, I'm sure. I'm going to still try to run tonight, but I know I'm going to be exhausted, making it really easy to talk myself out of it.
1/8: 134.0. I would LOVE to be in 133 zone, but I guess not today. I was tired but forced myself to go to the gym and run 4 miles. I also went for a walk, even though it was a bit cold, 50°F, but I'm near the Phoenix area so not used to the cold lol.. I was worried my boys were getting too cold, so kept it short. I'm proud of myself for getting some exercise even though it was really tempting to skip it yesterday.
1/9: 134.0. Well at least it's not up. Food was good, went for a walk and a run. Little short on sleep last night- not sure why my boys are sleeping so bad lately. But that's okay, I'm still planning on exercising today.
1/10: 132.5! I'm so happy. I spent most of yesterday morning going pee, and woke up this morning to a woosh! I've been very carefully counting calories, which I tend to get lazy on, and this is the result! Ran 4 miles last night. I really hope this number sticks around (or continues to drop).
1/11: 132.8. Close enough, I'm happy with it essentially staying the same as yesterday. I upped my run and did 5 miles, which felt pretty good. Continuing to weight food and count calories.

Round 247
January 7 - 16, 2024
62 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
1/7 – 127.8 I did eat some “extras”, though I tracked them and were reasonable. The calories were also compensated by my walking yesterday morning. My extras evolved after I had my first cocktail in three months (I rarely drink as I prefer food calories over alcohol). Something for me to keep in mind.
1/8 – 128.2 My numbers were good yesterday, so no concern about the up. Walked with the girls in the AM (3 laps), then just a general busy day.
1/9 – 127.8 Yesterday, was an off day, but I did track everything. Even with walking I was over on my calories. But glad I went ahead and tracked and was therefore informed.
1/10 – 129.2 Calories were on target for both myself and hubby, both of us up this morning. Me 1.4 lb, and hubby 1 lb. Both of us had commented on how salty dinner was last night. We are assuming that is the cause and tomorrow will be normal again.
1/11 – 128.4 Not fully back down. I somewhat wonder if any of the numbers relate to having to put in new batteries in the scale a couple days ago.

Morning All!
SW RND 246: 217.3; EW 205.9
SW RND 247: 205.9; EW
RND 247
1/7: 205.9
1/8: 205.6 (-0.3) good diet day, bad exercise. Planning to sort both out today!
1/9 206.8 (+1.2) new scales so that may account for more accuracy as the exercise and diet couldn’t have been a whole lot better. Bigger push today!
1/10 205.9 (-0.9) back to the old scales! Are more (albeit all good stuff) and didn’t get nearly as much exercise so I presume the loss today is a delayed benefit of the efforts of 1/8 at the gym! Definitely hit the wall on that initial blast but feeling really good and motivated to keep on keeping on.
1/11 205.4 (-0.5) hoped for more to be honest! Made it a significant calorie deficit day yesterday with three hours of tennis so only dropping half a pound is a little disappointing.

R247 - my 2nd
RGW: 185.5
FGW: 160
UGW: 120
Goals for this Year
• Be able to wear my wedding ring again
Goals for this round (same as last round)
• Track daily
• Journal Daily
• Drink 64oz of water daily
• 8000 Steps/day
1/7 - 187.2 - 3,861 steps which is really low. I got Melissa's shopping and ours done, shovelled the little bit of snow we got off the front walks.
1/8 - 187 - 7,729 steps, getting closer to my goal. It was a cold day. Had my doctors appointment. Will be doubling my meds once I'm back from Cap Cana. Then in a month if things aren't better the doctor is going to change course and try another treatment. The drive to Vegreville was beautiful, the trees were all covered in snow and ice. Saw lots of Buffalo around the park, sky was deep blue. Wish I had taken a picture.
1/9 - 186.6 - 6,879 not great but with the amount of driving I did yesterday on bad roads it was to be expected.
1/10 - 186.8 - 9,227 Made my goal!!! It was too cold outside but I had lots of stores to visit for work. I really hope that we get some new hires while I'm on vacation.

Does your doctor know you are taking both? None of my business but there is potential for serious interactions.6
