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

Round 256
April 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!

4/6 – 127.4 Middle of round 255 was fantastic and I saw the numbers I want. Then stress eating kicked back on for the week. Have not properly tracked since last weekend and the scale is confirming that action.

ND 256 (my 10th)
SW (first round) 155.8
SW (this round) 149.5
4/6 - 149.5
4/7 - DNW - I’ve been away for a few rounds - but I’m back now. Hectic crazy work schedule and then a long trip for Spring Break. We spent a week in Italy and I am happy to find that despite eating A LOT and not running very much at all, my weight has maintained right where I left it when I fell off the 10 day challenge train in mid-march. Now it’s time for me to get back on track and start the scale moving again. Because of the crazy stress of my work right before the trip, my running momentum suffered and I ended up being set back quite a bit. I had been aiming for a marathon the last weekend in May, but now I will need to revise my plan. There is no way I can be marathon ready in 6 weeks. It is disappointing, but I am not going to let the setback pull me completely off track. I have built a good base. Slow though it is, I am getting stronger and faster with time and if I dust myself off and get going again, the damage of the few weeks away I have taken will be minimal. New marathon target is set for August 24th. Training starts tomorrow.
4/8 - 149.5. Busy hectic day back to work after a week and a half off. So much work it could easily bury me but i am determined not to let it. Ran 3 miles. had planned to also strength train but I was exhausted and ended up working late instead. 🥴

4/6- 159.9 (72.5 kg) I expect this to bounce back up, especially with the trip coming up in 4 days, but I'm excited to see the 150s again. It's been almost 2 years. Ate a smidge above maintenance for this weight today, but overall not too bad.
4/7- 160.2 I slept in until 10 AM this morning. I haven't done that in months if not longer. I haven't been getting restful sleep lately, so that's probably why.
4/8- 161.8 Is it from eating spaghetti for dinner last night? Day to day swings can be so weird.

🎷 65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 256 (my 186th). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something. Takes me up to the day before I officially become an OAP! How can that be I can’t possibly be that old – I feel much much younger 😊.
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.

4/6 141.8 – (trend 141.3) – again no structured walking as attended funeral of an elderly aunt (94), she was the last of her generation, so a sobering thought for me is that now I am the oldest of my paternal side of the family!!
4/7 141.8 – (trend 141.4) need a move downwards now! 9.85 miles walked, all but 13 exercise calories eaten back. Getting some walking in today will be a challenge with Storm Kathleen around.
4/8 140.4 – (trend 141.3) – yes! The drop I was waiting for! 8.61 miles walked, less than 20% of exercise calories eaten back.
4/9 140.4 - (trend 141.2) pleased this number has stuck, 9.34 miles walked, 20% exercise calories eaten back.

Still not “feeling” the “healthy & fit” …. I keep reminding myself that I am NOT my thoughts or my feelings. Somehow I was successful in completing all of my round commitments yesterday even though I felt an internal braking system gnawing at me to stop & piddle. NSV: But I somehow pushed through it. Took every ounce of energy. Thank God. ✅Hit macros. Yes, I’m counting again.
That unavoidable, awful, worrisome, emotional family issue is currently at full throttle & front & center. …. All of my joy gets sucked out. Takes tons of energy to even TRY to stay positive. I conquered the internal battle yesterday by simply “doing” the commitments. ✅. Didn’t even feel good about it… Just blah.
But…. I do get to see my DGS today… Have not seen him since 4/27. I cannot wait! He sure is a sight for sore eyes. A full day of my “to do” list shall be completed before I pick him up. Today: Will fake it till I make it …
Let’s go stretch…. Onward.
Rained all day. No tennis but ✅ everything else and macros. Only 10 min of 🏋️♀️but it was a good 10 min. I’m thinking I’m not eating enough.… Will eat extra protein today.
I definitely managed my mood better yesterday than the day before. Was able to change worrisome thoughts successfully throughout the day. Staying mindful & present is KEY. Oh, enjoyed BIGtime my grandson yesterday-God’s gift to me. ❤️
NSV: Catching unhelpful thoughts quickly is slowly becoming a helpful habit.

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

4/9- DNW traveling Did a better job managing food yesterday. Dinner was probably a bit salty, the margarita definitely was! But it was nice relaxing with my DSIL away from the parents and kids for a bit.
I am ready to get home but I did very much enjoy the eclipse I got a few good cloud breaks and loved the feeling of midnight, so spooky. 10 out of 10, would do it again!8 -

I will take this scale reading after my German feast last night at the German American Society. I even had a piece of German Chocolate cake. (is that even really German?) Even so, my calorie budget was busted by only a little bit. How many times can I write the word German?
Thanks @quiltingjaine for setting it up the round. This one takes us to Tax Day. Our last entry should be postmarked by midnight.
4/7: 224
/logged; Exercised; 45 oz water fiasco/
This is the residual effect of the past two days of too much salt and not enough water. Out shopping with DW yesterday and we decided to stop for some Vietnamese food. I had a “small” bowl of Pho. It was actually huge. Though very reasonable in calories, it was very high in sodium. And delicious.
Did some nervous noshing during basketball games.
My exercise was mowing the grass, hauling yard waste, plus some functional lifting of boat batteries. Those batteries get heavier every year.
4/8: 223
/logged food; exercised; 75 oz water/
Maybe I can eventually get back to my starting weight this round. Yesterday I was very good. If I can do two good days back to back…

4/9: 224.0

Though I met my food goals with calories, the specifics were not good. Who thinks a “breakfast skillet” at a restaurant is a good idea anyway? Come on Jeff!
Yesterday’s highlight was the total eclipse that traversed the US. What a creation we live in! We are a 4-hour drive away from the path of totality, so we passed on that experience. Traffic promised to be a bear. Even so, the sun was reduced to a tiny “fingernail clipping” at our location. Still pretty light outside, but kind of dingy and gloomy feeling. We had zero cloud cover so we could see it all with our special glasses.

RND 256 Other than the goals I already have set, this round I'm aiming for no cheat days!4/6 174.2 Yesterday marked my 50th day of this challenge. Yay! Was hoping for better results but some of that is my fault. I've really got to do better if I want this weight off by summer. Met all goals yesterday. It's really starting to get beautiful out so I'm enjoying my walks so much. We live near the riverwalk, so I'm going to start walking more out there too. The scenery and wildlife is beautiful and its crazy how much it changes my mood when I'm out there. Hoping for a better round this time. Good luck everyone!4/8 174.2 Too much sodium with dinner. Stuck with my goals though. Need to drink plenty of water today.
4/7 173.5 There we go- almost at starting weight for last round. Took almost a week to get the weight back off from last weekend. Lots of walking and outdoor activities yesterday. Was so beautiful out. Loving the spring weather here. Hope y'all have a great day!
4/9 172.6 I started a challenge on the 1st of this month where I need to exercise at least 20 minutes a day and stay within my calorie budget. Yesterday was the 8th day in a row of doing all 😃. Plan to keep it going through April. There are pass days if needed, but I really need this push. In May I'll be traveling the 9th-12th to Kentucky (an 8 hr drive 😳) and then towards the end of May we'll have our family beach trip. I'm sure those will set me back some so this month I've got to put in extra effort.

4/6 DNW--Out of town—lots of walking and fly fishing, vacation food
4/7 DNW--Out of town—Hiked to Anna Ruby Falls, vacation food
4/8 DNW—Out of town—most of the day in the car, back on track with food, though. I expect a gain tomorrow, but it’ll be ok. I’ll work it back down.
4/9 181.4 WooHoo! Right where I started before vacation. We did try to be careful in our food choices and split some entrees, etc, and were very active, so I guess it worked out. Now to keep on track and make a downward move by the end of the round.

Just Give Me 10 Days: Round 256- Apr 6-15
SW RND - 215; GW - 155 (Female- Age 56)
Newbie
Logging Trend Weight
Goals:
- Plan food daily and work the plan.
- Fast 12 hours dinner to breakfast.
- Do 30 minutes of dedicated exercise 5 days a week.
4/6 - 215 - Sleep issues and night eating associated with insomnia are my biggest focus. Its pushed me to gain so much weight in the last year. Very hard habit to break.
4/7 - 213.9 - Clearly a drop in water weight but I'll take it. Worked the plan well yesterday through dinner. However, I did eat a protein bar in the wee hours, so I had to restart my 12 hour fasting window over.
4/8- 213.3 -Lifted some weights, lots of steps, eating on point with a lot of veggies and protein. Still struggling with eliminating the night snacking.
4/9 - 213.2 - Eclipse party. No alcohol. Stayed within calorie ranged but not the healthiest foods. Lot of steps and outside much of the day. Slept better.
