01/29 -181.6- (Trend weight 183.2)
01/30 -181.2- (Trend weight 183.0) I’m planning on taking a friend out of town today if the roads are cleared up. We had snow last night. I’d like to hit another small town nearby (about 40 miles each way) for a particular restaurant. They also have a bakery in that town so maybe I could get her birthday cupcake or something. Last night was a tough night getting through without bingeing. My son has some creamsicles in his freezer and I had to hold myself back from going down there and getting two of them. One would not have satisfied me as the craving was so intense. The only thing that stopped me was that I like the creamy kind best. I started imagining that the store brand ones were probably like popsicles with the cream inside, not the creamy ones. I can live without popsicles and so I kept that popsicle image in my head until the craving passed. I also had this overwhelming feeling that it didn’t matter what I ate last night since I’m going out of town today anyway and likely blowing it. You know, that all-or-nothing attitude. Then I told myself (again) that just because I am losing the air in one tire tomorrow, doesn’t mean I have to let the air out of the other three. It worked. I’m so glad I made it through. Sometimes I don’t. The scale may be up a bit tomorrow due to the birthday celebration, but I made it through last night. One day at a time, or shall I say 10?
01/31 -181.6- (Trend weight 182.9) Uptick due to the out-of-town yesterday. Today I will zig-zag a lower calorie day and lots of water to help flush it all away. Today I await the news from my older friend on her pet scan. They found a mass the size of an orange on her lung recently and have been testing her bones and her brain to see if it has metastasized and to stage her cancer. Her two daughters are with her today and she will find out her options, if any. I’m praying for good news but in the last 3 months she has broken her hip and then fell again and broke her pelvic which is inoperable. She also has many small blood clots in her lungs they’ve been treating for about a year. To sit and speak with her, you wouldn’t even know that anything is wrong, she still seems pretty healthy so I’m just so confused. Please pray for Diana H.

Hi, I'm Charissa
Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
So here we go 2024... my motto -
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Goals this round:
- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget 🍎
- Macros - hit Protein ✅
- Water - 64oz minimum 💧
- Closing my rings M-F🚶🏽
This is a critical round for me. I stalled at the end of last round which messes with my mind. I'm approaching where my body likes to "live" ~ 213.
I will focus on my 4 goals and try to ignore the scale!

Round 249 ● My Journey ~ round 5 ● Karla, 67y, 5'4"
* Journey SW 231 lb. * UGW 140 lb.
* Round 5 SW 217.0 lb. * EW ??? lb.
🙂Todays thoughts...
- (Day 55) We 01/31 ✴ 218.4 lb. ~ Pain is getting to me. Ugh. I will not give up! Sticking with watching what I eat and stretching to not irritate the stupid knee.
- Water 60oz+ each day
- Eating healthy; fats, vegetables, fruits, high protein & fiber, 1450 kcal.
- 30min of (IM) intentional movement every day; walking, strength, dance, etc.
🙂What's gone before...
[*](Day 51) Sa 01/27 ✴ 217.4 lb. ~ A really, lazy day. Lots of downtime, quite enjoyable really. There is still time for IM, will meet that goal before bed. Other goals are on point.
[*](Day 52) Su 01/28 ✴ 217.8 lb. ~ Darn it! After last night’s IM, I had a few hours of good function with the knee. However, overnight, and throughout today pain is again increasing lateral, posterior, and under the kneecap. 3 months post partial knee I had hoped the pain would have lessened. I made an appt. with ortho but it is another week away so I’m limiting IM to stretches and upper body work. I have struggled the last few days with choosing good food rather than just watching calories consumed. I need to remember the quality of the calorie counts!
[*](Day 53) Mo 01/29 ✴ 217.8 lb. ~ Again with the increase. Not a good day, It was warm out for a change and I got out of the house for a short walk, but ate badly. It will get better, I continue to learn, but depression hit me again. Winter is hard.
[*](Day 54) Tu 01/30 ✴ 218 lb. ~ Really?! I don’t even know what to say. Losing 2 lbs. took forever but it jumped back on without any effort. Maybe if I ignore it, it will go away.
🙂What's ahead...
[*](Day 51) Sa 01/27 ✴ ??? lb. ~
[*](Day 52) Su 01/28 ✴ ??? lb. ~
[*](Day 53) Mo 01/29 ✴ ??? lb. ~
[*](Day 54) Tu 01/30 ✴ ??? lb. ~

[*](Day 60) Th - 02/15 ✴ ??? lb. ~
6 - (Day 55) We 01/31 ✴ 218.4 lb. ~ Pain is getting to me. Ugh. I will not give up! Sticking with watching what I eat and stretching to not irritate the stupid knee.

@SheilaBoneham - what a darling Charlie looks, well done on his 'haircut'!3
-
@itladyee thank you for asking ❤️. She is doing well after a long weekend of rest. This weekend we need to get her back out on the road as she swears she never wants to drive again. Part of me would be happy with that after the scare of this accident but part of me doesn't want to go back to driving her around everywhere again (I forgot how busy and involved she is after not having to drive her from place to place anymore) 🤪7

RND 249 (my fourth)
SW (first round): 155.8
SW (this round): 152.4
1/27 - 151.3. Starting off on a good foot. Winter Warrior Challenge Day #27 6 miles. This was the longest run I've done since September 3rd. Feels good to be building mileage again. First weeknof marathon training complete.
1/28 - 151.9 - weighed but did not post - very busy weekend. Winter Warrior Challenge Day #28 3 miles
1/29 - 151.4 - Very Monday today. Winter Warrior Challenge Day #29 - 3 miles. Just two days left in the challenge. I will have to think of something different to include in my daily notes after wednesday.
1/30 - 151.8 - crazy week (and it’s only Tuesday 🙁) - my eating has been sporadic but I am keeping my choices healthy and within my calorie budget. Winter Warrior Challenge Day #30 - 3 miles - just one day left to go!
1/31 - 151.2 - Winter Warrior Challenge Day #31. 3 miles outside (in michigan) every day in January. Total 102 miles - 87 running. Very happy to be done, but happier that I stuck with it and didn't quit even though there were many days I wanted to. Expecting a gain tomorrow. Monthly friend will likely be visiting on top of having gone out with friends and had a beer and salty fried food and not nearly enough water. Still within my calorie budget but not by much and with the salt and lack of water to flush it through my body I expect the scale will go the wrong direction.

HW: 194.7 (88.3 kg) April 25, 2020
SW WT RND 247: 180.6 (81.9 kg)
END WT RND 247: 177.4 (80.5 kg)
END WT RND 248: 175.1 (79.4 kg)
1/27- 174.8 (79.3 kg) TOM started. If I follow my usual pattern, I'll have a bit of an upswing/plateau the next few days followed by a dip at the end. Also, I ate pollo a la crema for dinner, which usually causes the scale to go up the next day.
1/28- 173.9 Didn't get my expected upswing today. Scale trying to make a liar out of me.
1/29- 174.5 And there it is. Mondays and Fridays are our busy days at work. I have a very sedentary job, but man, work wiped me out.
1/30- 174.3
1/31- 173.6 (78.7 kg) Ended the month strong, hoping to continue a pound and a bit per week. Once I reach 170, I'll recalculate my calories.

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.
End of round 69 134.2 lbs
End of round 70 133.6

SW RND 249
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!
1/28 144.4 -no structured walking yesterday, only exercise was running around soft play with four little GGC sandwiched between 2 hours each way sitting in the car, calories well over.
1/29 144 – 9.31 miles walked, all exercise calories eaten back.
1/30 144.4 – 9.42 miles, all exercise calories plus eaten back ☹.
1/31 143.8 – 7.24 miles walked. Lunch out with DSs, tried to be as sensible as possible. It’s DH turn to have some health issues; 2 weeks ago both is hands swelled up quite badly, GP suspected osteoarthritis & booked him a full health check, his blood pressure was up and now his bloods have come back & he also has high cholesterol. He is very fit, not overweight, an arborist still working at 63 including climbing trees daily, he does however eat plenty biscuits, chocolate, cakes etc. it seems that all these have finally caught up with him!! He has 2 medical appointments coming up in the next week, one for his blood pressure and one for cholesterol. Seems he is going to be more aligned with my eating!!
2/1 142.4 – 11.04 miles walked, no exercise calories eaten back .

I’m a 65 year young Oregon gal working on getting rid of those last 5-8 pounds. Last round I hit my first goal of 135, now working to hit my next goal of 130. The plan this round continues to be a minimum of 10,000 steps 👣, 2-3 days a week at the gym🏋️♀️, logging ✏️ everyday with no snacking after 8:00, and limiting the 🍷to social events only. And of course guzzling the water 💧!!!

Pleased with how I did during the month of January, both with weight loss and with limiting alcohol intake. Now to keep this ball rolling as we move into February!5 -

1/28 205.0 Seems to be setting me up for an epic bounce back. Snowy out today.
1/29 206.5 That seems more like it. I liked the number yesterday, but it wasn't something I felt was real. Maybe dehydrated? scale battery? I will get there lol
1/30 204.8 I must be fluidy. Please stick please stick. Chronic heart failure and medication play this game with my weight where all I can do is stick to the plan and trust the process. I seem to be dropping into the "set-point" territory where the losses slow down and I stall out. Knock wood it hasn't really happened yet, but I weighed between 200 and 210 for years and years. Last couple of years it has been more like between 215 and 225. As long as I don't undermine my own results because I am proud of the number, I should be okay. ( Note to self: Rewarding myself with food for a loss is unproductive)
1/31 205.4 I really don't want to weigh multiple times a day to figure out if I am weighing correctly lol. Testing and changing the scale batteries today.

2/1/24: This is great but it's also time to evaluate my calorie intake to make sure I'm eating best for the long term. Saw a nutritionist yesterday; we set goals for the next month to achieve the right protein and calcium intake. She was good with my food plan, so at least I know I'm on the right track; now to make sure it's a permanent shift in mindset, not just weight loss...8 -
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.
1/28 – 127.4 Handled my day well and made good choices. Did not track everything, and plan to sit down and recreate. But there is nothing I would really change, so that’s ok. Today, I face celebrating three people’s birthday, my widowed 87 year old mother, son’s girlfriend, and grandson who is turning 4 this week. More food challenges to be!!
1/29 – 127.8 good enough. I did eat more than I should have last night. It has gone untracked as well AND I was chugging water overnight from the sodium. Onwards…..
1/30 – 127.2 While I did over eat yesterday with regards to total calories, those calories were skewed to the morning ( I started the day by eating 4 chocolate chip peanut butter cup cookies for almost 1000 calories). Today should, in theory, be straight forward, Still in Mass. My mom’s UTI is still raging in her mind. Yesterday, she was telling me to be sure to get the kids to the bomb shelter. Just a week ago (day before her 87th birthday) she was a totally different person. Though she is on antibiotics, her mind has gotten worse over the past few days. Today is a previously scheduled appointment with her psychologist. Fortuitously timed.
1/31 – 127.4 No reason. Actually was a little under yesterday. But digestive system is not up to par, so that may be coming into play.
2/1 – 126.6 Was over some, but everything was tracked yesterday. Was DGS’s actual 4th birthday. We got to visit and share the evening with #1, and #2 (5.5 months). As for my mom, I should have shared that 1/31 was fantastic with her pretty much back to dementia baseline. Yesterday was mixed. Today, I will be with her for the afternoon, then I return to Florida tomorrow. I expect that she will be emotional. The good thing is that she has great aids, though she is losing one to childbirth (due in 2 weeks and last day was a week ago). Aging is certainly looking a lot rougher to me.

R249 Prior day comments
**************************
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!
1/28 ⚖️131.6
Yesterday: ✅mac & kcals, 🙆♀️🤸🏼🏋️♀️🚶♀️💦 Great day. worked out in morn… and a perfect afternoon for 4.0 mi walk. Basic food day.
Today: Optimistic. Already got in my 30 min of ☕️ 🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼!!! (Up super early 3:15.) Weather forecast looks wonderful today & thru the weekend - 🌞 🎾 & outdoors for me!
1/29 ⚖️131.3🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼🚶♀️🎾💦🥩
Did it ALL! ✅ mac & kcals too😎
NSV: Had quite an emotional day that was “triggering” ice cream, ice cream, ice cream… Said OK-hold that thought…. let’s just eat the steak first and revisit that urge…
By the end of the steak, I didn’t crave the ice cream anymore. Was able to think through the “trigger”, and it just wasn’t worth it! THAT was a huge win!!! Boring yes, but a win! One ice cream wasn’t going to end my world, but it would’ve ended momentum, ketosis, put me back on square one for another week…. The victory tasted waaaayyyyy better than the ice cream!
Today: not sure yet but the weather is cooperating so I’ll be active.
1/30 ⚖️130.8 🙆♀️🚶♀️🎾💦🥩
✅macs & kcals
Wonderful to be outdoors! DGS spent night last two nights - what a treat! Positive day- taking advantage of gorgeous weather.
Today: 🙆♀️🎾🤸🏼🏋️♀️🚶♀️Another day outdoors. Food is planned.
1/31 ⚖️131.8 ✅🙆♀️🚶♀️🎾🥩
macros & kcals. Scale is up or down a pound like clock-work. Puff ball big-time this morning. Probably enjoyed outdoors a little too much. Played Tennis three hours and was feeling it last night. Thought I drank enough water yesterday, but I obviously didn’t … Woke up at 3am. Yuck.
Time for more 🏋️♀️🤸🏼today. Will play a little 🎾 … May also go for a walk want to take advantage of the ☀️😎.
NSV. I sincerely cannot remember the last time I ate a packaged food (bread, chips, protein bar, cookie, pasta-maybe June?)— anything not whole food (except hard cheese). I also make ketchup & mayo from scratch. And, it’s Mardi-Gras (King Cake) season here in Louisiana. (Basically bread sugar, sugar & more sugar). Last year I think I had a piece EVERY day from Jan-March. Not this year- and I don’t miss it! Thank GOD!
2/1 ⚖️131.8 ✅ macros & Kcals🙆♀️🎾🥩. Only 5.2k steps. Didn’t make time for walk in the afternoon. Hung around after tennis too long visiting,laughing & enjoying perfect weather. Lots of 💦.
Today: 🎾 this morn. Will conquer 🏋️♀️🤸🏼. Really must hit the “work-out”. Another nice day ahead!
NSV have stayed true to nutrition goals thru thick and thin the last few weeks. Emotional upheavals & circumstances beyond my control (that in the past) would have led me to an evening cocktail, chips & dip, snacking or huge portions. Intense worries for loved ones won’t be solved with a fork. I am starting to consistently conquer letting feelings pass long enough to delay reactions. This is benefiting my life far more than just food. Emotional maturity at 65?!?! Never too late. 😁

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.

I'm Julie, 35 years old, SAHM to two year old twins
RSW: 132.6
1/27: 132.5. Eating was good, went for a walk and a 3 mile run. We are going through a ROUGH sleeping phase with my boys. 3 night in a row that I got less than 5 hours of sleep. It's starting to get to me. I am determined to not let bad decisions creep in, but it's a lot harder when I am tired.
1/28: 134.4. I was feeling a bit dizzy yesterday so ate a little extra. It probably didn't have to include ice cream, but oh well. Went for a walk, no run
1/29: 134.1. I managed to stay within calories, but they included some McDonald's. Eating hasn't been great so far this round. Went for 2 walks and a 3 mile run.
1/30: 136.1. well this is going the wrong direction. I had a bit of extra salt yesterday and drank a little more water than usual, so I have no doubt it's water weight. No run, but did get a walk in. Food was under calories.
1/31: 133.3. Went for a walk, food was good. I was going to go to the gym, but when I got there, it was so packed the parking lot was full. I didn't feel like searching for a spot and then hoping a treadmill would be available, so I just went home. Probably not the best course of action, but it it what it is.
2/1: 132.6. Sleep has been terrible lately. Not sure why my boys aren't sleeping so well right now. I was under calories yesterday, but I ate pretty bad, as I didn't eat a lot, volume or quality. I woke up extra hungry today. Hoping I can keep food under control today. I have a lot going against me.

Female 60
It's been a while since I've been here, but decided to focus on weight loss again and this has always been a helpful tool for me. Lost 30 pounds last spring. then gained a few of those back. Have kept up my daily walks, but need to concentrate on nutrition.

1/27 171.4 😃 slept late, ate well. Rested. Didn't sleep long, but expected that after sleeping so long Thursday night.
1/28. 172 ate well. No exercise. Slept well. One of those really NICE boring days where everything went well. Quietly.
1/29 oops
1/30. 176 here we go again. Long day Sunday, paid for it Monday. Lousy eating both days, even though I planned ahead for Sunday. No formal exercise but lots of walking Sunday, lots of rest Monday. No sleep Sunday night. 5 good hours last night. Looking forward to a lot of sleep tonight.
1/31. 175.4 Still feeling bad. Should be over it by now. No exercise. Decent, not great sleep.
2/1 need to eat better today. No exercise. 4 hrs sleep

@itladyee thank you for asking ❤️. She is doing well after a long weekend of rest. This weekend we need to get her back out on the road as she swears she never wants to drive again. Part of me would be happy with that after the scare of this accident but part of me doesn't want to go back to driving her around everywhere again (I forgot how busy and involved she is after not having to drive her from place to place anymore) 🤪
I feel her... I can't imagine how scary the thought of driving must be. BUT...you are correct, she has to drive again. She will get her confidence back! Thanks for the update!3 -
