4/26 - DNW
DH wanted fish and chips yesterday & we didn't feel like driving downtown to the Irish pub, so we went to Culverโs. I had a burger. I rarely eat beefโit doesnโt agree with meโbut it sounded so good, and it was, but Iโve had an upset stomach since last night. My system pretty clearly does not want beef, which is fine with me. Next time Iโll stick with the salad!

Iโm not weighing or tracking these days, but I feel very bloated and heavy. Also quite lazy. Spring fever? Possibly. I have some big garden jobs waiting for me when the rain and wind stop and Iโm hoping being outdoors more will get me out of my funk. Today is very windy so Iโm thinking some indoor clearing might be good for the soul. We really donโt have clutter, but there are things I could recycle and places that could stand a good cleaning. I donโt like doing it, but I like having it done! Enjoy your Saturday!
4/28 - DNW
Iโm feeling less bloated todayโI think Iโve flushed out the salt from Thursdayโs splurge. I managed to get out in the garden a little yesterday, but it was not very pleasant because of the wind. Today is calmer, but so Iโll pull a few weeds before my afternoon knitfest with a friend. Wishing you all a lovely day.

Well, my experiment in not tracking is a bust. I weighed myself this morning after a couple of weeks of not weighing or tracking food and Iโve gained. I actually have trouble wrapping my head around how quickly I gain how much. Anyway, Iโm back to tracking and plan to weigh in again (and report) the end of the round, after a few days of paying attention. Sigh.

Happy May Day! ๐๐๐ Flower day for meโI bought some yesterday, planting today, going out for more today or tomorrow! Also working on the weed and invasive grass situation, which is annoying but is also exercise! I think the soil we had put in these beds was full of weed and grass seed as I have never had a problem on this scale. Anyway, it does get me out there working, which is where Iโm headed now. Have a lovely!

Not much to report. See you tomorrow! ๐คช

Rain rain rain! But I got a couple of big garden tasks done yesterday and Iโm hoping to clean up another bed between showers this morning. It might be too wet and mucky. DH wants Chinese food today, so weโre going out for late lunch/early dinner. Iโm sticking with stir fried veggies & chicken. Whoโs a good girl?

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

SW RND 258 133.5
4/26 134.5 I expected a higher bounce since I ate most of a loaded baked potato. I got grilled shrimp instead of the intended lobster and passed on the warm loaves of bread.
4/27 134.5 We went for BBQ at lunch but I wasnโt hungry so picked at my brisket. Ate my potato skin for dinner - added butter, cheese and sour cream. Quite a treat since I have always loved potato skin. Today is French toast breakfast at the clubhouse. I hope they have eggs and bacon, too.
4/28 133.5 Iโm surprised since I ate the French toast. The only other thing I ate was a small piece of steak (left from Outback) and 7 boiled shrimp with homemade bang bang sauce.
4/29 134.5 Great Greek yesterday. What is it about that that always causes a bump up or is that from the load of carbs from French toast on Saturday? Side salad and steak. I made a coffee cake and took it to neighbors but didnโt eat even a crumb.
4/30 DNW up since 3AM
5/1 133.5 I felt as if I didnโt drink enough water yesterday. We went to El Pollo Loco for dinner- hadnโt been there in a long time. It is probably the healthiest fast food there is - grilled chicken, salad, broccoli but our meal included a churro, which of course, I ate. Why is it that I had awokened at 3AM and at 11PM I was not the least bit tired and hadnโt yawned at all?????
5/2 134.5 ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐คทโโ๏ธ Maybe the rumbling deep in my belly?? Going to help DD inventory the school library today. Different scenery but not a great deal of movement.

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.

RND 258 total loss so far:
Goal: no snacking after dinner, get calories in before 7pm
4/26 152.4 weighed but forgot to post
4/27 151.4
4/28 152.4 Ate out for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Iโm guessing my meal last night has more sodium than a home cooked meal.
4/29 151.8 I ate after dinner last night, felt snackish and โdeservingโ of food. Will work on sitting with the feelings and letting them pass vs. just giving in.
4/30 DNW ate snack after dinner
5/1 151.8 No eating after dinner last night, victory, as I set out not to eat after dinner this 10 days and have missed it half the time so far. Moving forward!
5/2 151.6 expected a higher drop as if two days of not eating after dinner would magically take me to me goal (ha ha, I joke, but I have to watch those thoughts of โIโm killing this! I should be at my goal weight by now!โ after only a few days/weeks at careful consumption ๐คฃ)
5/3 153.4 Yep, this is what happens after a cocktail with my husband, a reasonable shared meal of apps and an entree and then a large piece of pie at a local bakery. My back had been so much better and this was my first dinner out with him in over two months as I couldnโt sit in restaurants. Not allowing it as an excuse to eat off plan for the rest of the challenge or month, for that matter.

I remember DS had whooping cough when we were kids, her racking cough sounded like a seal barking, 60 years on I can still hear it in my head! My cough is not like that (luckily), but it has been so persistent especially when I lie down at night, keeping me awake. But I am pleased that it does seem to have subsided quite a lot during today, so I am hoping for a better nights sleep.
@SheilaBoneham - I know as a child I did have the vaccination (we had all the childhood ones) & I'm sure DS would have had it too so not really sure why she suffered !?
This might be a long shot, but do you take blood pressure medication/ACE inhibitors? I tried one that made me cough at night (evidently a fairly common side effect). My apologies if I missed something in the recent messages that explained whatโs going with you. Sorry to hear! Itโs so disruptive to sleep!

๐ท 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 258 (my 188th). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something; to get back into the 130s! Strive to have a feeding frenzy free ๐. Good luck everyone for a successful round.SpoilerAchieved 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, itโs 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.

This might be a long shot, but do you take blood pressure medication/ACE inhibitors? I tried one that made me cough at night (evidently a fairly common side effect). My apologies if I missed something in the recent messages that explained whatโs going with you. Sorry to hear! Itโs so disruptive to sleep!
Thanks for thinking of me, no I don't take any medication whatsoever (at my age I consider myself very lucky in that respect). The cough is purely down to a very agrivating common cold (at least I hope it's just that!) . I'm normally very lucky that I only get one every 3 years or so, but this is the second one this year! So I think I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself, but it seems on the way out now, just one coughing fit in the middle of last night - Fitbit says 8 hours sleep, I am starting to feel a lot better.11 -

May is a stressful month. I do my best to relax and tell myself โit will all get done, it always doesโ. But really the only way it gets done is by doing all of it!!! Not enough hours in the day.
I did skip my workout and knocked off of work early to spend the afternoon on the boat with DH. I had to prioritize!

TBH surprised @โ๏ธ. Thought Iโd be real 130s. Yes, only a pound but itโs about knowing myself. At this juncture, I should be able to nail it with certainty. I didnโt sleep well last night (Woke up at 4 AM this morning) which is probably the reason.
Iโve been hitting 10k+ steps at least 6x per week. Did not yesterdayโฆ Worked most of the day and played tennis last night. I have been doing really well with proteinโฆ Tonight - girls night out, so planning it out. Gotta figure out this sleep thingโฆ Itโs holding me back from my best selfโฆ
Today: ๐โโ๏ธ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ฟ๐พ.
NSV: Feeling comfortable & positive. Practicing staying in the moment.
4/27. DNW. Busy, busy, busy with life yesterday. Good protein. ๐โโ๏ธ๐พ๐ถโโ๏ธ10k. BUT, didnโt stop to take care of me for this round. ๐ซโ . Today, will journal and reset. Just give me NINE days! ๐
Up at 3am. Simply not going to be healthy with these sleep patterns.
4/28 133.0 Yep. iโm still discombobulated. Not returning to routine is not helpful. Still not sleeping. Up at 4am. Clothes are looser than ever but so darn puffy. Itโs not what Iโm eatingโฆ. My cortisol must be high, stress, dehydration, retaining fluids. Iโll check in tomorrow. Will search & capture some positivity. Focus on ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ.
4/29 132.0. Fluctuations from no sleep, stress. ๐๏ธโโ๏ธfor 20 min.
๐ซโ . I fear IBS is back. Itโs been yearsโฆ. Rough day with those old familiar pains. โ๏ธ today. Will be sure to ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ. Hoping for a much better day.
Since Iโm not feeling well, may just hit this hard Wed 5/1. Not an excuse to delay, just some grace. IBS hurts like hell. However, there will be stretches when I feel great so I will fit some โFITโ inโฆ. Certainly donโt want to give inโฆ.. Letโs GO!๐ช๐ป

I donโt like this #. no sleep, high stress, edgy. Food not great but still fuel. Not enough protein. Itโs been almost 2 weeks since Iโve gone on a structured LONG walk, so Iโm going to do that this morning. Work the rest of the day. Hope to journal. In a holding pattern. My โmoodโ is not where I want it. Need to food plan. My โ5/1โ first day of the month โkick-offโ fell on its face. Today will be better.
133 is a wake-up call. Food hasnโt done thisโฆ. Stress, no walking, no sleep is the culprit. Seems like my body is holding on to ๐ฉ (no pun intended)โฆ my systems are on strike. Letโs see if I can jump start my system today. More ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ and walk.
5/3 132.0 walked 6 mi and felt great. nature is the KEY! Slept until 515 this morning so I guess thatโs a big deal tooโฆ Feel better than yesterday. Will walk again today. ๐โโ๏ธ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ. ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ

WOE & Health Journey
****************************Spoiler
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 Iโm now leaner animal proteins with lower fat than Keto. I thought I was โKETOVOREโ but Iโve been told I am โMADโ.
I had paralyzing IBS for 20+ years. My mother was diagnosed with celiacโs disease in her 50โs. Following her lead, I eliminated wheat, oat, barley, and rye in 2015 โฆ. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional high protein Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive systemโฆ I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for several daysโฆ 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. Iโd rather journey toward my best-self. I havenโt given up alcohol completely, but I enjoy it sparingly on special occasions. This is me. I finally feel terrific.

Continuing to figure out maintaining, and to work on best nutrition and exercise.
History:SpoilerHarry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two โkidsโ, 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 โall in or notโ 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 motherโs 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
4/26 โ renpho 126.6 Made it to my MIL. Today is a repack day. Still not back to proper tracking, but I will be thought during my travels.
4/27 โ renpho 126.2 Tracked perfectly yesterday and made good choices dining out last night. Hit my numbers. Online now for about 3 minutes to make my post. I have 45 minutes to do breakfast, deal with the cats and get settled into the car. We drive 820 miles today and stay overnight in Virginia.
4/28 โ renpho 125.6 not sure how but grateful. Hopefully home scale will agree tomorrow morning. Calories tracked, but solidly over.
4/29 โ 126.0 Home! Down around three or four pounds since the New Year, and my creep up. Glad I stopped it when I did. Thatโs an improvement for me as my life history shows repeat swings of 25 or 30 lbs. While I am in the range I have stated I want, this number is the max, so I would like to clean a little off so that my โbumpsโ still remain in range.
4/30 โ 128.2 Yep, went off the deep end yesterday. Scale is confirming lots of salt, carbs and quantity.
5/1 โ 128.6 Disappointing. I did track thoroughly and closed the day with good number. BUT, I had pasta for dinner. For whatever reason, I have observed over the years that have a gain the day after a meal of pasta. This and my 4/29 bender will sort out over the next days as long as I stay on track.
5/2 โ 127.8
5/3 โ DNW I drank coffee before remembering the scale
5/4 โ 127.2 slowly moving back down despite poor choices all week. I need to stop accepting my excuses to make bad choices. In part, I know I need to get back to what I used to do, same breakfast every morning, with small predictable selection of lunches, then variation at dinner.

RND 258: I aim to keep up my goal of staying within my calorie goal, and daily exercise for this whole round. The next 2 rounds will be a challenge since I'll be traveling.5/1 170.2 Good day yesterday. Finished out April with meeting my goals and exercising each day. Trying to not get discouraged with the slow process. I think a lot of things are contributing to that (not enough sleep, out to eat too often, etc...). Hoping I can finish this round out with a loss.Spoiler4/26 170.0 My weight is a little up from yesterday. Feeling a little blah and like my body is holding water. Could be the meal I had yesterday evening. Planning to drink a lot of water today. I have been slacking on vegetables lately so I need to start working those more into my meals too.
4/27 170.0 Weighed this morning but didn't get around to posting. Will update more in the morning
4/28 170.6 Busy day yesterday so I didn't drink enough water. Stayed in my goals but there was cake and ice cream last night.
4/29 169.5 Ate light yesterday but still snuck in a half piece of cake ๐. Thankfully the cake is almost gone lol... I'm not getting enough sleep. The past couple of days I've just been exhausted. Really think it's a mixture of not sleeping much and the way I've eaten lately. Although I'm still meeting my goals, we have eaten out a lot lately. I think that definitely plays a part in the way I feel too.
4/30 170.6 The scale has been all over the place lately when I weigh myself, and it's fairly new. I try to go with the weight that I get 2 or 3 the same. Might have to get another set. I have another one that is newer also but it's not digital.
5/2 169.5 Glad its coming back down ๐.
5/3 168.2 The whoosh I was looking for โค๏ธ. I'm now at a 30lb loss since October last year. Seems slow but from what I've heard, slow is better. I still want to lose another 18 lbs.
5/4 168.9 Salty popcorn at bedtime last night. Put me over a few hundred on calories. Lots of water today!

DH wanted fish and chips yesterday & we didn't feel like driving downtown to the Irish pub, so we went to Culverโs. I had a burger. I rarely eat beefโit doesnโt agree with meโbut it sounded so good, and it was, but Iโve had an upset stomach since last night. My system pretty clearly does not want beef, which is fine with me. Next time Iโll stick with the salad!
4/27 - DNW
Iโm not weighing or tracking these days, but I feel very bloated and heavy. Also quite lazy. Spring fever? Possibly. I have some big garden jobs waiting for me when the rain and wind stop and Iโm hoping being outdoors more will get me out of my funk. Today is very windy so Iโm thinking some indoor clearing might be good for the soul. We really donโt have clutter, but there are things I could recycle and places that could stand a good cleaning. I donโt like doing it, but I like having it done! Enjoy your Saturday!
4/28 - DNW
Iโm feeling less bloated todayโI think Iโve flushed out the salt from Thursdayโs splurge. I managed to get out in the garden a little yesterday, but it was not very pleasant because of the wind. Today is calmer, but so Iโll pull a few weeds before my afternoon knitfest with a friend. Wishing you all a lovely day.

Well, my experiment in not tracking is a bust. I weighed myself this morning after a couple of weeks of not weighing or tracking food and Iโve gained. I actually have trouble wrapping my head around how quickly I gain how much. Anyway, Iโm back to tracking and plan to weigh in again (and report) the end of the round, after a few days of paying attention. Sigh.
5/01 - DNW
Happy May Day! ๐๐๐ Flower day for meโI bought some yesterday, planting today, going out for more today or tomorrow! Also working on the weed and invasive grass situation, which is annoying but is also exercise! I think the soil we had put in these beds was full of weed and grass seed as I have never had a problem on this scale. Anyway, it does get me out there working, which is where Iโm headed now. Have a lovely!

Not much to report. See you tomorrow! ๐คช

Rain rain rain! But I got a couple of big garden tasks done yesterday and Iโm hoping to clean up another bed between showers this morning. It might be too wet and mucky. DH wants Chinese food today, so weโre going out for late lunch/early dinner. Iโm sticking with stir fried veggies & chicken. Whoโs a good girl?
5/04 - DNW
We went for Chinese yesterday as planned but I had Kung Pao chicken, so a bit more than just stir fry. It was excellent, though, so although Iโm slightly up this morning on the scale and was very thirsty last night, Iโm sure some of that is water/salt.
It is what it is.

4/26 134.5 I expected a higher bounce since I ate most of a loaded baked potato. I got grilled shrimp instead of the intended lobster and passed on the warm loaves of bread.
4/27 134.5 We went for BBQ at lunch but I wasnโt hungry so picked at my brisket. Ate my potato skin for dinner - added butter, cheese and sour cream. Quite a treat since I have always loved potato skin. Today is French toast breakfast at the clubhouse. I hope they have eggs and bacon, too.
4/28 133.5 Iโm surprised since I ate the French toast. The only other thing I ate was a small piece of steak (left from Outback) and 7 boiled shrimp with homemade bang bang sauce.
4/29 134.5 Great Greek yesterday. What is it about that that always causes a bump up or is that from the load of carbs from French toast on Saturday? Side salad and steak. I made a coffee cake and took it to neighbors but didnโt eat even a crumb.
4/30 DNW up since 3AM
5/1 133.5 I felt as if I didnโt drink enough water yesterday. We went to El Pollo Loco for dinner- hadnโt been there in a long time. It is probably the healthiest fast food there is - grilled chicken, salad, broccoli but our meal included a churro, which of course, I ate. Why is it that I had awokened at 3AM and at 11PM I was not the least bit tired and hadnโt yawned at all?????

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.

4/28 - 179.0 - I've been part of this challenge off and on (more on) since Dec 2020. I haven't posted since Sept 2023. I'm almost back to my heaviest weight. I can blame this on not being able to exercise due to some major health issues, but truthfully I think I just started eating more and more as self-comfort and some depression. I never think I'm going to "really" have any major health problems (most people feel this way, I believe). Because I've had two major issues over the past 2 years, I started losing my confidence that everything was going to be okay. However, I'm so much better now!! And ready to get healthy again!! It makes me nervous to talk about my health issues (it's like putting it out there in the universe is bad luck - I know, I'm weird), but later I hope to post a few comments as my experience might help others. I'm glad to be back posting, Everyone on here has always been so positive and supportive of each other๐
4/29 - 178.6
4/30 - 177.4 - Enjoying the initial downward trend while losing some water weight these first days mainly due to lower carbs and drinking a lot more water.
5/01 - 177.6 - It looks like I'm settling in on the 177s after the first initial weight drop from mostly water weight. I'm calorie cycyling where I eat around 1000 to 1600 calories each day, maintaining an average of about 1200-1300 for the week. The reason it helps me is I'm a binger and if I'm still hungry at the end of the day, it helps me to know if I eat more calories, they are "planned" and it keeps me from bingeing. I unfortunately am a little bit of a control freak where it's all or nothing, and when I would eat over my "alloted" calories for the day, I would feel like I blew it and binge, and was always starting over. I wonder when I'm my "normal" weight if I will still feel this way, or the fact that I'm not "dieting" will keep me from feeling like I have to eat everything in the house this once before starting over. So, this calorie cycying keeps me from getting in my head thinking I blew it (which of course if I was able to think reasonabley about it, I did not), and know that I have a plan for these days. What ever works, right? I'm a work in progress.
5/02 - 178.6 -No worries! I had my higher calorie day yesterday and I had way too much salt, but even if this wasn't the case, I have to remind myself that it's perfectly normal for weight to fluctuate each day!!!!!
5/03 - 177.2 - It's beautiful this morning but the blackflies are out, so it's the treadmill for a few weeks. After 2 major health issues over the past 2 years, I'm doing my best to stay in the moment and appreciate every day. I'm such an in-my-head person. Even when I walk on the beach (where the blackflies aren't), I have to stop and make myself focus on my beautiful surroundings as not to take them for granite. Have a nice day and weekend everyone!
