3/27- 162.7 Trend is still going down despite being up/relatively flat the last round. Turkey tacos for dinner tonight.
3/28- 163.2 Staying on track and trusting the process.
3/29- 163.3 Went 250 calories over because I got confused adding up lunch calories. Drank plenty of water today which I haven't been doing lately.
3/30- 161.6 New low. Within calories today but didn't drink enough water. I need to work on filling up and using a water bottle.
3/31- 160.7 (72.9 kg) Another whoosh, possibly due to TOM. I'm 5.6 pounds (2.5 kilos) from the lowest I've been in 4 years and it's a bit exciting. Drank more water today too.

🎷 65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 255 (my 185th). So grateful for all the support from you guys in this group
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something.
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.

3/29. 142.4 (trend141.3), could have been worse had a major feeding frenzy yesterday

& no structured exercise as child minding little DGS. No weighing for the next 3 days as we have travelled up to the peak district for Easter.

3/29 – 58.8 happy Friday everyone 😊
3/30 – 59.0 well that turned out to be a less than happy Friday. Disappointed to see the scales up by so much, especially after a tiring weights session.
3/31 – 58.8 walk planned for today – happy Easter to all those who celebrate it, happy Sunday to those who don’t.
4/1 – 58.8 but only after weighing several times. Am thinking of moving the scales over to lbs for the next round as the increments are smaller.

How are we hitting April already? Since I played catchup last round from too many social shenanigans, my goal this round is simply to weigh less in 10 days. My hope is to see a 130 in this endeavor! Come on folks… summer is coming. We can do this!!!

4/1: after finally dipping below for a day, I'm right back at that 130 plateau. But with Easter weekend I'm not going to complain about it- I sidestepped all the candy, but last night I dreamt that I ate a piece of chocolate- much like the "smoking" dreams I had when I quit 20 years ago!
That shows the power of sugar over me- it's like cigarettes were!

**************************

3/27 ⚖️130
Just want to report my 🎾 team won 🏆 our division yesterday and we are headed to state at the end of April. It’s just plain fun. I was EXHAUSTED after the match. As captain, it’s impossible to not be emotionally invested. Last night I was so hungry. Ate a burger with bacon & cheese. No bun. Scale approved this morn but will probably show up tomorrow. Crazy. Will drink tons of 💦 today. Sunrise walk now, then catch up with life today. Yes, will 🙆‍♀️🤸🏼📿🏋️‍♀️. Will do it all!

NSV: Since I went out of my regular eating patterns yesterday, I’ll follow up with plenty of water today. It’s a helpful habit.

3/28 Yesterday I got sidetracked - it was as if I had a worm in my brain devouring every rational thought. I had planned all of my workouts -and the moment I started thinking about my tennis team going to state, I didn’t stop thinking about it for 14 hours… THAT is an unhelpful habit!
Today- Headed out the door for my morning walk then a full day, preparing to head out of town before daybreak tomorrow!

3/29 ⚖️ forgot to weigh this morn. All ✅ except 🏋️‍♀️ yesterday. Too distracted again…. On the road @3:30am. Packed resistance bands and jump rope 📿… and HM. Will check in tomorrow just to read entries. ☦️

3/30 DNW zero movement except for stretching each time we stopped. 15 hours in the car -three hrs over due to accidents. Glad we are here safe. ✅ food & 💦! Today:BEACH WALK with DH side of family. Will be fun.

@ judefit congrats on your milestone! Keep it up!

3/31 DNW Happy Easter!
Yesterday: 16k steps. Beach time. Ate according to plan… Just a little more than usual - no desserts & lots of protein. Lots of 💦. Walked 3.5 miles this morning before everyone got up… We are headed to a Southern Lawn party later today … Will enjoy the food staying away from carbs & desert. Staying away from carbs and dessert is NBD anymore… If I see something, I absolutely must taste I will, but not planning on it …. Gorgeous day ahead of us. Sending ❤️ and hope.

4/1 DNW I tasted, tasted, tasted @ the lawn party. Will post a pic. Did not “over-eat” per se but ate more and differently than the healthy me. My meals are usually perfunctory. Not yesterday. Lamb and beef tenderloin. Brie. Brussel sprouts. I ate a few scrumptious bites of the most delicious scratch carrot cake and a few nibbles of dark chocolate/almonds. One piece of BREAD! Will definitely feel the difference today/tomorrow. Might be sick. Enough tasting for a good long while. Today: Charleston WTA tennis tournament & lots of walking & 💦.

About me, WOE & Health Journey
****************************
F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean Ketovore 🥩. Track macros, kcals, all exercise and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010.

WOE since 7/2023: Whole Foods. No processed foods. Animal-based proteins. EGGS, Beef, pork, chicken, seafood, venison and grass-fed whey protein. I count macros & kcals - always will. (Since portion control is my issue). Keto is high-fat but I’m now leaning lower healthy fats with leaner proteins. I had paralyzing IBS for 20 years. My mother was diagnosed with celiac’s disease in her 50’s. Following her lead, I eliminated wheat, oat, barley, and rye several years ago…. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive system… I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for a few days… I do enjoy berries, lemons, limes. Avocados are my weakness. Enjoy a piece of dark chocolate on occasion. Generally, I eat btw noon and 6 pm. (IF18/6). Alcohol? Used to be a social drinker and would enjoy a good martini/scotch or Paloma at home while cooking dinner. NO MORE. Root of many evils. Primarily, the destruction of will power and the enemy of optimal choices. I’d rather journey toward my best-self. I haven’t given up alcohol completely, but I enjoy it sparingly on special occasions. This is me. I finally feel terrific.

History:

I have ALWAYS been ON a “diet” since at least high school. I have never been comfortable with my body - NEVER EVER- no matter my weight.

Pre- college: 125-130lbs
College- up to 160lbs one year… graduated @130lbs.
Many different diets each decade!
1990 (Age 32) - Avg.135/140 lbs (my son was born 1988)
2000 (Age 42) -Avg 145 -160
2010 (Age 52) - HW 172 lbs in 2010. 130lbs by end of 2014.
2020 (Age 62) 130-135lbs
7/2023 (Age 64) 145lbs
1/2024 (Age 65) 130lbs

UGW = 129-130lbs
⬆️SMM: 100lbs +
BF% : 23%

Aug 14, 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take serious control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 11/15/2014. Weight @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Six years!

Another 🎢 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 10/30 - held 130lbs till 2/1/23.

2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much. My nutrition has always been somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was THE issue. Started tracking again 7/15/23. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130ish determined to…. STOP the 🎢 & 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 be healthy & fit & maintain approx. 130lbs & IN SHAPE - to enjoy my “Senior” years to my fullest.

While active with 🚶‍♀️& 🎾 it’s clear a ST 🏋️‍♀️🤸🏼routine was absent. Strength & balance are 💯most important now. Time to incorporate ST 🏋️‍♀️ 🙆‍♀️🤸🏼as my TRUE focus. I want healthy/fit choices to be my first nature.

DW Birthday today. I know my assignment. 😊 We will be married 45 years in August, but I have been celebrating her birthday for about 50, when we were both kids. Some form of Birthday lunch out, after group exercise. Her choice.

Sorry for not checking in, I have been preoccupied. DW birthday, Helped in kitchen for Upper Room service at church, entertained guests at home last night, meetings, blah blah blah. All excuses. 😊

Just caught up with your posts.

3/31: 225.6
/logged; exercised (mowed grass and yard work); 90 oz water/
All in all yesterday I did well except for one detail. DiGiornos rising crust frozen pizza for supper. We were both tired and wanted something easy as we watched UConn TROUNCE Illinois. (I was rooting for Illinois) Kiddos over today for Easter Dinner after church. Four generations involved. Double smoked spiral sliced ham on the menu. It involves application of maple syrup followed by spiced rub between each slice before going on the smoker. Meat candy essentially. Don’t expect to see a drop tomorrow.

3/26: 226.6
Starting weight on day before this round.

4/1: 225.8
/nope; nope; 66 oz water/
Considering the feast I had yesterday, this is not bad. Hoping to cleanse my habits this week.

Have I ever mentioned my real name is Elon Musk?

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Saturday we ate out due to being out of town. Yesterday we went to Fam's for a crawfish boil. I did my monthly measurements (on time!) and have lost 1 1/2 inches since March 7th (almost forgot to measure in March). I lost 1/2 inch on each: waist (smallest part), belly pooch (just below belly button, largest part), and hips (widest part). This is exciting and very needed due to the slow scale progress. Just proof that I'm doing a body composition - gaining muscle while losing fat! Here's to more and more! Lots of posts to catch up on and a very busy day full of meetings so hopefully I can take a few mental breaks to see how everyone else is doing!

Previous Day's Comments

3/27 - No change but that's okay. I started estimating my calorie intake (I didn't fully measure while meal prepping and I'm not weighing things when I eat, so just a rough estimate) to ensure I'm getting enough to fuel my body with the strength training but not so much that I'll be gaining fat. I'm very low on protein this week so I'm figuring out how to up protein in my meals for the next two weeks as well as snacks to add in. This weekend's grocery trip must get me through until at least the 12th of April due to the Eclipse (can't grocery shop the weekend of the 6th/7th as I'll be on call with the Fire Department). I'm still learning what works for me with meal prep (mix and match is going very well! Day 3 and I'm not yet dreading either meal) as well as what is needed to meet my goals. A work in progress still makes small steps forward!
3/28 - A little dip, for which I'm thankful. I found myself in a rut yesterday with meal planning to make my grocery list. I'll work on that after work today and hopefully come up with something that will work well without getting overly bored of certain foods and with being on-duty for the weekend (travels well/can be prepped head so I'm not called out in the middle of cooking). I'm rushing because I found out after I posted yesterday that HEB is closed Easter/Sunday and I'm out of town Saturday so I have to make a work lunch grocery run tomorrow instead. Due to leaving somewhat early Saturday, I'll also be running tomorrow for my cardio day/10k training. It'll be a busy one since I'm also going to be trying to finish a huge project tomorrow for work. Eek! This is a trial, but I can handle it with a proper mindset
3/29 - A small drop and that's okay. Very busy with both work and grocery shopping today. Today is the deadline and I'm close, but not there yet. Waiting on responses from vendors - one has holiday today so I won't get answers before my deadline. Ugh. Likely will be working late due to the grocery trip interrupting and the need to finish as much as I can without vendor responses. At least it is Friday! Baseball game out of town tomorrow so eating out most of the day - will do my best to stay active and eat responsibly given my options. No run this morning due to weather. It was very windy and, although it said no rain, looked like a downpour could happen any second. Dogs and I got rained on earlier this week on a walk when it said no rain so I didn't trust it. Depending on when we have to leave tomorrow, I'll try for a run in the morning, though it may be shorter due to schedule restrictions.

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

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

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

SW RND 255 137.5

3/27 – 137.5
3/28 - 136.5 Yesterday was a good day. Cleaned in preparation for the arrival of DGD#2 this evening.
3/29 - 136.0 DGD’s flight was delayed about 7 hours so I’m a bit sleep deprived. Today is DGD#3’s 21st birthday. Her mom woke her at 11:45 last night and took her for her first adult beverage and a chance to win at a slot machine.
3/30 - 134.0 I had 2 eggs for brunch and beef brisket for dinner. 3 sips of celebratory champagne at nail salon. DGD#2 spent the day and night with her cousins and aunt and uncle after the ladies got pedis and I got a mani.
3/31 - 134.0 Tried a place our daughter told us about that is owned by a friend of hers. All I ate all day were those 2 tacquitos.
4/1 - 136.0 Honey baked ham, 1/2 cup mashed potatoes and some roasted broccoli. I knew this was going to be a tough week with DGD#2 visiting and lots of eating out and didn’t even consider Easter. So I’m just hanging in there.

Rnd SW - 122.2
Rnd GW - 120 or less

3/26 - 122.2
3/27 - 123.8 - ugh was disappointed
3/28 - 122.8
3/29 - 122
3/30 - 122 - pretty impossible to get to 120 by 4/01 so maybe that would just be the realistic goal for this round.
3/31 - 122.2 - and I had McDonald's for lunch because someone at my work bought it 🫤 it was too filling and I felt gross. Had some feta cheese and kalamata olives as a snack later but that was it.
4/01 - 121.2! - well, that is surprising.. just hoping it continues!
