R250- 20th
2/6/24 Let’s call a spade a spade… Ticked up to 132+…MUST 🛑 that before it gets out of hand.
See “Health Journey” (& about me)
R250SW 131.6lbs - ➡️ wanting to reduce to 130.x. Maintenance is a psyop at this point. Let’s tighten up portions ⬆️protein ⬇️kcals & more 💦 &🏋️♀️. InBody Scan toward end of this round to compare to 1/5/24 scan.
Ultimate Goal: ⬇️”Maintain” @ 129-130lbs🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼🚶♀️🎾💦🥩
1. 10-Day Focus: start the drop to 129-130. I’m on a two week experiment. Adjusted macros & kcals. This could take two rounds but I’m determined.
2. Take InBody Scan week of 2/19 to compare previous scan.
3. TRUTH: I will always be that person that must “count”. Maintenance is a misnomer (for me)- true for 50++ years. Acceptance!
4. My mission is to STOP 🛑 THE RED and Live in YELLOW!

2/6⚖️131.6lbs
Spent a couple of hrs yesterday reviewing MFP stats & goals. Determined my personal maintenance kcals is approx 1400 (NOT 1600) as I had determined. Having seven+ months of tracking / hard data is invaluable. I have also been MUCH less active over the past 4-5 weeks (weather). Love having this data and so, I can & will reset.
DH is my witness… He is dumbfounded by how easy it is for me to gain, and how hard it is for me to lose… He sees discipline, movement, &work-outs … I’m glad he is here to reinforce & encourage me. We both believe I am a 💯scientific anomaly. 😁Embracing it!!! Onward!
NSV: 209 days of tracking. 209 days of leaning in FOR my health, fitness and longevity.

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. Always self-conscious.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 1/1/23.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. Started tracking again 7/15/23. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130 determined to…. be in the

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.

Round 250
January February 6 – 15, 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!

02/06 - 151.4 - I thought I had posted yesterday but then I realized I had thought about it but didn't actually do it! I ate something that didn't agree with me on Sunday so I ended on a high weight due to the bloating and such as my body worked through that. Glad to be back down now and hoping to see this trend downward. Good low carb day yesterday with a Peloton ride followed by a non-stop meeting from 730am to 530pm. Oof! Another lower-impact/easier ride today due to yesterday's being so intense I got dizzy and thought I'd pass out on the bike. Tomorrow is a run so I don't want to overdo it. Today's foods are quite carby. I'm trying out a chia seed pudding for the first time and I used a banana (they need to get eaten) and that really increased my carbs for the day already. It was delicious and I have hopes I can make a keto-friendlier chia pudding without issue that's equally as delicious. BF wants to try a tortilla recipe for lunch but I think he'll use our regular tortillas before they go bad. Dinner is burritos but again, regular tortilla. All meals planned for this week, including the Superbowl party (wings - just need to avoid all the other carby snacks that are inevitably there since we'll be on a low carb day). Feeling fairly good about things

I’m not off to a great start this round—snacked last night—but today is a new day. I went out for Chinese yesterday with my Monday lunch friend, stuck to stir fry, and didn’t eat dinner, but…. Anyway, I’ll do better today.

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.

My name Krystal by the way! 39 getting ready for 40 this year. Wanna look as cute as possible on that day😉SW: 180.7
~ My plan for round 250 is to eliminate drinking alcohol on a nightly basis.
~ Try to get more into old school Keto, and for one meal a day I’ll allow myself to have a Keto processed food item. ie. Keto hot dog buns, keto slimfast snacks, I’ll pick one meal to eat these items.
These adjustments should also help with our food/beverage budget🤔** Bonus!! **Stayed Below SW 179🩷=Yes 🖤=No

Hello 10-dayers. I've been MIA for quite a while. I've regained quite a bit of weight and need to start focusing on this again. The struggle I have with weight loss and with maintenance is my brain seems to be all-or-nothing around my eating habits. Last month I focused on stopping drinking alcohol. I'm continuing that this month but want to add not shoving whatever I want in my pie hole. In lieu of alcohol I ramped up my processed sugar intake. I didn't gain any weight but none fell off just by not drinking so many calories. I'm not sure how long I've been mid-130s but it's been a while. I had gotten down to 122ish when I was consistent here. I don't necessarily need to get there again but I want to just have some accountability.
Exercise has been really consistent. Right now I'm doing a cycling challenge and progressive overload strength training, both through Peloton. My cycling should only increase through the year as I found out I get to participate in a huge company-sponsored fundraiser bike ride that goes coast to coast on the US in a relay style. I, and several teammates, will ride a 225-mile segment of the US over 3 days, so I will need to be in great shape for that in September! I feel so lucky. My company is enormous (well over 10,000 US-based employees) and I'm not sure how many people applied, but only 126 get to do it. I'll definitely keep up with my training, and I think riding will be easier if I weigh less, or at least have less body fat/ higher strength-to-weight ratio.
I'm excited to be back with y'all I hope everyone here has been doing well

~ I’m technically behind a day in my “reflections” so I’m just copy/pasting what I wrote out previously~ My plan for round 250 is to eliminate drinking alcohol on a nightly basis.
~ Try to get more into old school Keto, and for one meal a day I’ll allow myself to have a Keto processed food item. ie. Keto hot dog buns, keto slimfast snacks, I’ll pick one meal to eat these items.
These adjustments should also help with our food/beverage budget🤔** Bonus!! **

~ Try to get more into old school Keto, and for one meal a day I’ll allow myself to have a Keto processed food item. ie. Keto hot dog buns, keto slimfast snacks, I’ll pick one meal to eat these items.
These adjustments should also help with our food/beverage budget🤔** Bonus!! **
~ Also started a step challenge with my dad and brother. This should help me with getting back into my daily walks again

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

2/6 134.0 DH is feeling much better. I got everything unpacked and put away and am ready to finish a small bag I made at the retreat. I didn’t have fabric for lining and didn’t want to buy any at the retreat.
Again I apologize for that faulty link and now wonder if it was because I posted from the hotel. 🤷♀️ I’m glad we all take care of each other here! Thank you Tish (@tiabirdie56) and all!8 -
I'm in for Round 249
RND 249 (my first)
SW): 177.8
GW: 165
1/27 - 178.8 I went up a little because I wasn't focused, but I'm going to do better today.
1/28 - 177.2. I was focused on not eating too much too late last night. That's going to be my focus for the rest of this challenge.
1/29 - 176.2. Ice cream Sunday, but I kept my calories low and still got the win. Today I plan on getting a workout.
1/30 - 176.4. I wasn't focused enough at night, snacking got to me, but I won't let it defeat me today! Onwards and upwards
1/31 177.8. I failed! Binge eating at its best
2/1 176.2. Down from yesterdays nose dive, but still fighting for a victory this week!
2/2 - 175.8. I'm figuring it out. Eating like an upside down pyramid. Meals big for breakfast, medium for lunch, snack for dinner. That's working for me!
2/3 - 177.8. Worked out for the first time in a long time! Weights causing gain, maybe!?!
2/4 - 176.2. I didn't go crazy eating last night. I'm gonna get a win for the final day!!! Let's go!!!
2/5 - 176.8. Well, I finished my first round. There were some good things and some bad things. Looking for houses meant lots of car time and eating out!! I'm pleased with my progress! 1lb weightloss isnt too bad! Thankful we get to do it again!

I gained weight last round so I will see how this round goes before deciding on whether to reevaluate what I am doing. I am eating 3 meals a day with no snacks and getting at least 22 active minutes in per day. I stopped counting calories last round and that is probably the problem. I feel the way I am eating at the moment is more sustainable but it is probably more of a maintenance strategy.

R250- 20th
2/6/24 Let’s call a spade a spade… Ticked up to 132+…MUST 🛑 that before it gets out of hand.
See “Health Journey” (& about me)
R250SW 131.6lbs - ➡️ wanting to reduce to 130.x. Maintenance is a psyop at this point. Let’s tighten up portions ⬆️protein ⬇️kcals & more 💦 &🏋️♀️. InBody Scan toward end of this round to compare to 1/5/24 scan.
Ultimate Goal: ⬇️”Maintain” @ 129-130lbs🙆♀️🏋️♀️🤸🏼🚶♀️🎾💦🥩
1. 10-Day Focus: start the drop to 129-130. I’m on a two week experiment. Adjusted macros & kcals. This could take two rounds but I’m determined.
2. Take InBody Scan week of 2/19 to compare previous scan.
3. TRUTH: I will always be that person that must “count”. Maintenance is a misnomer (for me)- true for 50++ years. Acceptance!
4. My mission is to STOP 🛑 THE RED and Live in YELLOW!

2/6⚖️131.6lbs
Spent a couple of hrs yesterday reviewing MFP stats & goals. Determined my personal maintenance kcals is approx 1400 (NOT 1600) as I had determined. Having seven+ months of tracking / hard data is invaluable. I have also been MUCH less active over the past 4-5 weeks (weather). Love having this data and so, I can & will reset.
DH is my witness… He is dumbfounded by how easy it is for me to gain, and how hard it is for me to lose… He sees discipline, movement, &work-outs … I’m glad he is here to reinforce & encourage me. We both believe I am a 💯scientific anomaly. 😁Embracing it!!! Onward!
NSV: 209 days of tracking. 209 days of leaning in FOR my health, fitness and longevity.

F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean Ketovore 🥩. Track macros, kcals, all exercise and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010.

Pre- college: 125-130lbs
College- 160lbs one year… graduated @130lbs.

⬆️SMM: 100lbs +
Initial BF% : 22%
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. Always self-conscious.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 1/1/23.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. Started tracking again 7/15/23. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130 determined to…. be in the
📣#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.
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 15lbs to 130.
Avg loss 1lbs per Round.
Jan/Feb: Ticked up to a steady 132. Happier@129-130.
(I was in “maintenance” for 4 to 6 weeks and it’s slowly ticked up!)
Let’s go!
You're not the only scientific anomaly !!!6
