NSV- Used positive choices & 📝 to get myself out of the dump. Looking forward to today.
4/17 130.4 ✅ I’ll take the unexpected ⬇️…
Yesterday:🏋️♀️15 min 📿350 jumps 🎾 2 hrs 20 min,🚶♀️11k , protein ✅ Solid day but woke up @ 3:55am. My sleep isn’t cooperating. Lost my temper HUGE yesterday over minuscule stuff. Here I am thinking I’m dealing well, but I’m not realizing how much it’s impacting me…
📝 30 min.
Up @ 4:25 this morn. 🎾again then prepping for work Thurs morn…. then off to State 🎾tournament - starts Friday 7:30AM. Food planned!! Will sleep better tonight.
NSV: I’m amazed at how often I’m checking my thoughts & changing them. Even though I lost my temper, I was quick to understand why and apologize. Drank more 💦 and went for a walk. 📿 rope. Ate only to fuel my body yesterday.
4/18 130.9
✅🎾🏋️♀️🚶♀️🤸🏼📿 macros
Solid day! Food=Fuel. Up to 450 jumps on the 📿. I think I can do more it’s just boring….
Today: Up @ 4:45. Work, then prepping for 🎾tournament tomorrow. Have been drinking+ 💦. Food for tournament is planned and no alcohol.
NSV: Clarification: when I write food = fuel, that means that food is a necessity- no fixation. I eat when hungry, and it’s somewhat mundane/boring. I’m that person that doesn’t mind eating the same thing three days in a row… ex: super dry chicken breast 🤩 Eating is simple. Little to no variety.
4/19 131.0 lbs - Up at 3AM 👀
STATE 🎾 TODAY!
Yesterday: worked most of day, prepped for leaving town. Food & 💦good. No other ✅. Full day of tennis today!

WOE & Health Journey
****************************
WOE since 7/2023: MAD: (Mostly Animal Diet) 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 leaner animal proteins with lower fat than Keto. I thought I was “KETOVORE” but I’ve been told I am “MAD”.
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 in 2015 …. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional high protein Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive system… I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for several days… I do enjoy berries, lemons, limes. Avocados are my weakness. Enjoy a piece(s) of dark chocolate on occasion. Generally, I eat btw noon and 6 pm. (IF18/6). Alcohol? Used to be somewhat of a weekend 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 9th grade. 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 MANY different diets each decade!

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!
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140lbs. 🎢🎢🎢 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.

Round 257
April 16 - 25, 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
4/16 – 129.0 What the heck?!!!!! I thought my scale was broken. Yes, yesterday I was off track, but 3 lbs is physically impossible. We’ll see how it settles out over the next couple of days. Hubby had the same issue this morning. Neither of us are happy!
4/17 – 128.0
4/18 – 127.4 Having real trouble keeping on track and making good decisions. Variety of reasons 1) highly distracted 2) trying to empty refrigerator, freezer and shelves before heading north in a week. But of course, that does not do hand-in-hand well with my decision to by multiple boxes of Fat Boy Jr Ice cream sandwiches……
4/19 – 127.2 (renpho 127.2) starting to get ready for travel by getting my comparative numbers between home and travel scales.

This is long, so no need to read. I’m writing partly to find out what I’m thinking. I’m in the throes of some big decisions about life, all building up for a while but banging around in my head in a big way right now. I’ve mentioned here my friend who has had serious health problems over the past year and is now on dialysis 3 days a week and essentially immobile. On Tues her husband came in from mowing the lawn, sat down with a cold drink, and had a massive heart attack. Last I heard he was alive but not responsive. This has all been a sad reminder that life can change in a heartbeat, literally. I’m 71 and Roger will be 89 in July. We’re both healthy, thankfully, but realistically I don’t have much time left to monkey around. (20 years is not much time imo.) Things that used to be vitally important to me no longer are, and I’ve developed some new interests. One of the decisions I’ve made is to (try to) step back from my lifelong worry about weight and tracking calories and yada yada. The recent photo with the stack of diet books really hit me—like many of you, I’ve read everything and know a lot and yet have struggle with weight or worry about weight since the first diet I was put on in the fourth grade. The only times in my life I haven’t “dieted” (and I include any kind of restriction in that) were when I was working and studying overseas, and walking everywhere. Clearly my lifelong diet worry hasn’t worked. So one of the things I’m dropping, maybe short term, maybe for good, is tracking. I’ve already stopped tracking food, and I’ve put my scale in the closet after this morning’s weigh in. All of which is to say I’m not sure how long I’ll stay with this group. I really enjoy reading your posts, but I may need to step away for a while. I’ll stick around for this round and see. Anyway, thank you all for being so supportive and open about your journeys.
@SheilaBoneham I like that you said, "I’m writing partly to find out what I’m thinking." Keep writing. I like to journal (hand written) and I heard someone say recently "I journal by hand. It slows my brain to the speed of my hand so I can understand what I am thinking." I am sad for your friend.
I don't have the right to ask you to stay in the group, and I can't promise that I will stay. But, while we are both in it I will enjoy reading your posts.

Male: 66
6’-2”
OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016)
OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205
Goals for this round:
1. Log my food daily; try to eat cleaner.
2. Daily exercise; at least some movement…
3. Drink 90 oz. water.
4. Break 218 at least once.
Round 257 Posts
This is my posting format….
Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed.
/ Logged Food - yesterday; Exercise – yesterday; water - yesterday / Comment
Previous posts:
4/16: 219.8
/logged; exercised; 80 oz water/
And so it begins again. A fresh start for everyone.
I am very pleased with this morning’s scale reading. Last night I helped in the kitchen at church for an event. When I “filled” my plate afterward to sit and eat with the other helpers I erred on the side of excess. Still managed to stay under my budget thanks to exercise calories eaten back. I will do that within reason, but I try not to eat them all back due to possible errors in logging.
The true bump may come tomorrow, so I will be careful today.
4/17: 219.8
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
This morning our local chamber of commerce has its annual “forecast breakfast.” All the taxing bodies will go to the podium and give an update on what’s happening at their end of the world. Village, School District, Library District (I am on the elected board), Park District, Police & Fire. It is always interesting. My former firm has done (or is doing) design work for all of them. The highlight is pumpkin pancakes. This should be my big meal of my day.
This new decade of pounds I am in has a mild inspirational effect. I know I am too close to the 220’s to get too happy because there WILL be a bump up. (pumpkin pancakes for example) But five days in a row under it is meaningful.
Striving for the next decade.
By the way, I know “decade” is the wrong word. Can’t think of anything better this morning. Any ideas?
4/18: 219.4
/logged; exercised; 64 oz water/
Happiness with this. As it turns out I CAN enjoy a pancake without falling off the wagon and having ten.
4/15: 219.4
Starting weight on day before this round.
4/19: 219.6
/logged; no exercise really; 70 oz water/
Well this is unbelievable. Seven days in a row on 219.x. Some may say I am stuck in a rut, but I say bring it on after so many weeks putzing around in the mid 220’s. And I was a bad boy yesterday.

~ I did the bare minimum in exercise but I got it in. Still paying attention to my knee..
~ I’m saying NO that I didn’t log yesterday because I waited till just before bed which I feel is partly why I went over in calories. That and daughter brought home pizza from her new job and it was too tempting not to try it. I wasn’t sure the actual calorie count because I couldn’t find Beef O’Brady‘s pizza in MFP’s food pick list. And so I overestimated to be on the safe side.

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. Trying to get in the 60's by my son's wedding at the end of April..

@UTMom81 Planet Fitness participates in Silver Sneakers and is only about 3 miles away but I’m so lazy I don’t even want to drive there. I paid for the black card so I could use the massage beds. Kind of irritated me that they continued to charge even though they were closed during the pandemic.2

I feel better with no dairy and gluten. I’ve been on a modified bed rest for 3 weeks due to various issues in the L4-L5-S1 of my spine, waiting to see specialists. A friend brought dinner over and I ate gluten and dairy, weight and inflammation are up. No surprise.

4/16 134.0 Finally dropped a bit and DH set up dinner date at Golden Corral 🤦♀️🤦♀️ I have a plan since we are going later so friends can get butterfly shrimp. I will get salad and steak and see what good veggies they have. I can do this! OY! This morning has been a mess. Now to finish reading today’s posts.
4/17 136.5 I only ate one meal yesterday. That was at GC. I really didn’t eat a lot of food but it was high carb-breaded shrimp and Nashville Chicken Bites, sugar free vanilla cake and the blueberry filling from a slice of SF blueberry pie, at a 2” square of real crust from “apple cobbler.” I also drank a lot of water after we got home. I feel bloated-something I don’t experience often. Optometrist today so I can replace the glasses that broke when I fell in Ensenada. Tonight is community bingo with pizza for dinner.🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
4/18 138.5 The thick crust pizza was cold be the time it was served so I couldn’t even pry the toppings lose to throw the crust away. This is turning into a stellar week🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️I’m having my BP coffee and pondering my plan. On the upside-It’s great of the scale to let me know it’s working by showing increases.🤪😂

I ate a lot yesterday, mostly healthy food, just too much. I’m not worried about the uptick. We have another gorgeous day, with rain forecast this evening and tomorrow, so I’m planning more garden infrastructure work today again. It’s good exercise, with a bigger purpose. 😊
4/17 - 195
Rainy day, so I’m off to knit for a while with a friend. Always fun to knit in company and talk and laugh. She usually feeds my lunch when I do, but I’m taking a curried pineapple chicken salad this time. Yummy!

This is long, so no need to read. I’m writing partly to find out what I’m thinking. I’m in the throes of some big decisions about life, all building up for a while but banging around in my head in a big way right now. I’ve mentioned here my friend who has had serious health problems over the past year and is now on dialysis 3 days a week and essentially immobile. On Tues her husband came in from mowing the lawn, sat down with a cold drink, and had a massive heart attack. Last I heard he was alive but not responsive. This has all been a sad reminder that life can change in a heartbeat, literally. I’m 71 and Roger will be 89 in July. We’re both healthy, thankfully, but realistically I don’t have much time left to monkey around. (20 years is not much time imo.) Things that used to be vitally important to me no longer are, and I’ve developed some new interests. One of the decisions I’ve made is to (try to) step back from my lifelong worry about weight and tracking calories and yada yada. The recent photo with the stack of diet books really hit me—like many of you, I’ve read everything and know a lot and yet have struggle with weight or worry about weight since the first diet I was put on in the fourth grade. The only times in my life I haven’t “dieted” (and I include any kind of restriction in that) were when I was working and studying overseas, and walking everywhere. Clearly my lifelong diet worry hasn’t worked. So one of the things I’m dropping, maybe short term, maybe for good, is tracking. I’ve already stopped tracking food, and I’ve put my scale in the closet after this morning’s weigh in. All of which is to say I’m not sure how long I’ll stay with this group. I really enjoy reading your posts, but I may need to step away for a while. I’ll stick around for this round and see. Anyway, thank you all for being so supportive and open about your journeys.

Thanks to those who commented on my long entry yesterday. The good news is that my friend’s husband is doing reasonably well. And I’m feeling pretty good about trying not to track, although it’s so thoroughly ingrained after years of doing it that it’s mostly automatic. Anyway…. @_JeffreyD_ I do journal by hand most days—I’ve filled many notebooks! Research shows that our brains are more engaged when writing by hand than when typing. Not that I can read my own writing anymore! But journaling, like walking alone and unplugged, is a great way to work things out. Pulling weeds, too, and that’s what I’m off to do!

RND 257 So far in April, I've met my goals every day along with daily exercise. I aim to finish off April with no "cheat days"!4/16 172 Light eating day yesterday, I just didn't have much of an appetite. Looking at the dates of this round reminded me that my youngest boy's birthday is next week (the 24th). He'll be 6. He is the happiest and sweetest little boy and he brings such joy to everyone ❤️.4/18 170.2 Another good day yesterday. Feels good to set goals and actually stick with them. I set another goal for myself this month also to not bite or pick at my fingernails. (I know it sounds gross) Just something I've been doing since I was a little girl. Bad bad habit that I've never been able to break. Although my nails still aren't long, I have more nails now than I ever have and I can actually paint them 😀.
4/17 170.2 I was waiting for a drop. I could tell my body has been holding on to water. Also have barely had an appetite for 2 days, so I was a good bit under on calories both days (not complaining about that 🤪). Weight will probably go up a little when I'm eating back to normal.
4/19 171.5 Weighed myself 2 hours early this morning before I really got moving around. Seems like I weigh a little more when I first wake up. Yesterday was another good day with all goals met.

4/19 - DNW - I ended up waking up right as BF came back from the gym and it threw me off routine so I forgot to weigh. I'm not upset about it, I'm still dealing with some horrible TOM/PMS including bloat so it's probably better I don't see the scale and add one more reason to be down on myself. Instead, I told myself I was going to have a really good run and I did. I repeated the Peloton 60 minute walk/run and I feel like I did better (at least I felt better) during this one which is good. I'm tired and sore (hills) but I feel accomplished. I ended up getting a coach for the next 4 months. Typically they do 6 months but since I'm ahead of the game compared to her normal clients, she's starting me at 4 with option to continue after that. Our focus is nutrition but I can ask small things about exercise and mindset or I can choose to add in those coaching modules for an added price at any time, too. Due to budget I'm sticking to the number one thing I feel like I could use the most help which is nutrition. I'm excited to start Monday! I think having the monetary investment will keep me accountable and the added accountability to my coach will keep me better focused and more aligned with goals than trying to do it on my own. I know how to eat right, but I'm still very unbalanced macro-wise which is what she'll help me with. Progress, not perfection!

Previous Day's Comments4/16 - DNP
4/17 - Busy with work and completely forgot to check in and post! Oops. Doing pretty well so far. BF skipped out on the gym this morning but I went and had a really good back&shoulders day by myself. I'm suuuuuper duper sore in my legs from Monday so I think I'm holding on to a little weight from DOMS. I just got my 2 new recipe books in, both Paleo (Well Fed and Well Fed 2). Meals planned out for today and feeling capable. Hopefully work is productive but not overly stressful. Yesterday was a good balance and I'd be okay with that again.
4/18 - TOM and with a vengeance. For what? I don't know. I knew it was going to start today and it hit right as I started my workout. Ouch. I'm super bloated and horrid cramping so I'm taking it as easy as possible the rest of the day. Explains the scale, though! Almond butter oatmeal for breakfast. Chicken pot pie soup for lunch, dinner will be ground beef and broccoli. Depending on if I need to be on a work call about 10pm tonight, I'll wake up and run (last run before the 10k next weekend). BF going to the gym for a second round of legs. Work is busy busy busy and stressful. Can't wait to get this part of the project DONE

04/17 -182.8- (Trend weight 182.0)
04/18 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) Leaving this morning for the Cancer Center. I’ll probably take a couple of days off weighing until I can get back on this journey with some normal diet and exercise. Eating my meals in restaurants, getting no exercise or movement and doing nothing but sitting is not part of my journey. I’ll post numbers when they better reflect my efforts or my disregards, not my stuck-withs. I’ll keep up with reading the posts as best as I can. I’m not gonna lie, I’m pretty scared and shaken up about this re-check. I’ve been through a lot these last couple of years and all of this is not normal par for the course. I’ve had 3 scares before with a few years in-between each. All 3 times was cancer (or pre-cancerous). I am trying to stay hopeful. Thanks to everyone for the well wishes.
04/19 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) So I am relieved to say that I’ve “passed the test” so far. Doctor said if there was a 2% or better change in the mammogram findings I would have to come back for a biopsy. I was 1.4% so I’m in the clear for now. However, they will do another diagnostic mammogram (not a screening mammogram) again in 6 months to continue to monitor. I am so completely grateful and feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me. Except in the hip area. They feel squishy and more “bloated”. A few more days of no weighing for me as I let all the travels melt off me. Oh, wouldn’t it be nice if it were that easy? Thanks again everyone for your kind words of encouragement and your prayers.

@SModa61 Are Fat Boy Jr smaller than Fat Boys? Fat Boys are the favored dessert after bingo here.
