65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 249 (my 179th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round; not going to set any numbers as I only self-sabotage when it looks like I’m getting there! So, to weigh less at the end than the start and an NSV to to reduce my resting heart rate (it used to be in the mid 40’s range, but has gradually crept up and is actually 52 at the moment, also no binge eating.
Good luck everyone for a successful round.

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 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.

1/27 142.8 – 8.31 miles walked; 55% exercise calories eaten back. Travelling 2 miles each way today for DGS’s 4th birthday bash at a soft play & then to a dinosaur themed restaurant, I’ve already checked out the menu, not my type of food; all fried

,but will chose the least damage and limit the amount of fries that are served with it, & of course there will be birthday cake!

Hi everyone and good luck for the next 10 days! I wanna thank this community for being very supportive and nice. It really helps to be consistent.

This is my fourth round in a row! I’m happy that I’m consistent even though I just lost 1 kg (2.2 lbs). The process was very messy with many ups and downs, but it’s good to be here. I’m happy that I’m getting used to eat healthier, I’m trying to have a new eating habit (which is so hard). I aim to be compassionate to myself but also push my limits further.

1/27: Friday evening with my daughter and son-in-law; those end of week evenings with them are priceless. Before going I had a salad with chicken so I wouldn't be "starving" and eat my way through a plate of salty, fatty deliciousness, but I couldn't resist just a little- and 2 glasses of a very nice cabernet. Worth the price; this is about real life, not a diet. Came home and had tea rather than snacking again, which was my previous habit. So two victories- I resisted overdoing and I weighed this morning.

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.

As I age it becomes much, MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could lose 15lbs easy in 8 weeks up to 2022 ish … 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.

Cumulative Round Results
7/15/23 SW 145lbs
R231 - R 247, lost 14-15lbs
Avg loss 1lbs per Round
Now in Maintenance with focus on building muscle - not the scale.

3. InBody Scan this round to compare to previous scans for progress.

R249 Start stats & COMMITMENTS:
************************

This round: continue all MFP tracking, stats & movement/exercise but won’t post details here. If I fall short on a daily goal - will report-otherwise on target.(I think I’m the only person interested in that detail! 😎)

1/27 ⚖️ 131.4lbs
Yesterday:
✅ macros, cals, 🙆‍♀️,🚶‍♀️9.4k
NSVs:
1. Food no longer a “reward”.
2. Continue to see & feel small changes in my appearance.
3. Much more stamina, flexibility and energy.

Experimenting with new macros and kcals this round. Still want 129-130. It’s a psychological thing. Floating around 131–132 feels off -?like I’m on the brink or edge of gaining again… dunno. Maybe it’s just easier for me to “restrict” vs “do” during BAD weather? It’s clear I’m not as active in winter weather… so…. Adjust!

Round 249
January 27 – February 5, 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 two parents, 87(mother), 85(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 (father has since passed and I am DPOA, Personal representative AKA executor, trustee, and oversee the majority of my mother’s care). 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

1/27 – 127.2 Why the drop finally today? Yesterday was fly home (possible flight fluid retention) and I ate an airport lunch of real onion rings and my first pressed cuban sandwich. It was delicious, but very salty (part of the purpose of onion rings

). Did my best to compensate with the rest of the day. I tracked everything using best estimates. This week home is going to be challenging. Today I face going out to eat while catching up with neglected friends. But I have checked out the menu and have my tentative plan of ordering the mussel appetizer as my entrée. I hope to save enough calories today that I can have some bread to sop up the sauce.

Back in the Game!
I was sick for the last ten days with a cold; listless and couldn't get off my dead duff to weigh in. Better now. Goals for this round: No salt! Learn the fructose contents of my food choices! Measure everything! Drink more water (which means drink less coffee)! That's a big order.
start-203, start this round 192, UGW 156 GW this round 190!

Happy Saturday! Mine will be crazy, running to a friend’s house several times to let two of her dogs out while she’s off at a dog show with #3 and her hubby is driving one of the little Shriner cars at the circus all day. In between I’m going to take my first stab at a full groom of Charlie by myself. I show groomed Aussies for decades, but Cocker Spaniel coiffures are a whole new world, what with clippers. Eek! I hope I don’t butcher him too much. Wish me luck!
