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.

1. ✅Avg. close to 10k steps per day for 8+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅Healthy Habit: 🙆‍♀️ I stretch daily and that has greatly improved my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅HH: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
4. ✅HH: Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
5. ✅HH: zero to 10g of net carbs/ day
6. ✅🥩MAD 110-130g Protein (Mostly Animal Diet-CLEAN)
7. ✅HH Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM.
8. ✅💦80oz daily
9. ✅Alcohol limited to rare occasions.

Tremendous progress since last July, but still “skinny-fat”. I want 🏋️‍♀️to become a healthy habit too. … 🏋️‍♀️20 min per day or 30 min 4x per week. I need to continue to journal📝 and to strive to ID unhelpful habits & replace with helpful ones.

Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.

In my dreams, I want to be 130lbs with a HARD body… 😎 But let’s face it, this could be unattainable and/or unsustainable, but I’ll give it my best … It’s a 🥕! I don’t know how long it will take. Also, rotating 110g to 130g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable.

Let’s do R261 !!🙌🏻

5/26 ⚖️131.8lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩130g 🚶‍♀️14k📝 🚫💦.
DGS spent the day & night. I felt yucky all day. Still puffy. I’m going to stick with same plan/ routine as the R260 with #HSF (Healthy Strong Fit) identity/ habits … Definitely will accomplish more as groin is almost 💯 …. Remaining cautious.

Will update my info & round “habits” later today during my 📝 time. Love a fresh new start! 🍀Good luck all!

5/27 ⚖️131.2 lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩130g 🚶‍♀️10k📝 💦. Still feeling physically & mentally out-of-sorts from the over-the-top Friday eve. The brain fog is real. Failed to update #HSF for R261. Will accomplish today.

Today: my DH cycling trip was cancelled due to the tornadoes in NW Arkansas. Such devastation… Will figure out the week with him, food prep, groceries & plan an active day/week. Glad he is home & safe.

5/28⚖️130.0lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩119g 🚶‍♀️8k📝💦. Can only attribute ⚖️to nine hours of sleep and body finally processing Fri night.
🎾today and will finally reflect on round habits.

5/29 130.0lbs.
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩117g 🚶‍♀️10k📝💦. My brain & body finally back all the way to “baseline”. No brain fog. No dragging. Wow, recovery took four entire days. But… slept only 5 hrs last night.

NSV: My body craves routine & that’s what I’m going to her!
Today: 🎾 & 🏋️‍♀️. Will fight the mental tug-o-war!

5/30 ⚖️ 130.5
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩107g 🚶‍♀️8k📝💦.
Exhausted myself from the heat of 2 hrs of 🎾 which wiped me out for the rest of the day... Groin still not 💯but manageable. This round is flying by!

5/31 DNW
Up @ 2AM 🙁😬🙄
✅🏋️‍♀️20min ! 🥩🚫92g
✅🚶‍♀️10k📝💦
Solid day. Gazillion errands. Watched 📺 French Open. Played 🎾 last night. 🏆(1st USTA match since mid-May).
🎾early this morn. HOPING for an extra L O N G 💤 nap. Ready for weekend routine - with gratitude & prayer.

5/26: 221.6
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
I never really hit my water goal. Try harder maybe?

DGS had a big day yesterday. His first base hit (coach pitch) in youth baseball. It’s been a long time coming. 😊 Then right to a birthday party in the park with his friends. He’s big stuff now. Seven years old and leaving first grade in the dust.

Did those potato chips really need to be polished off last night. Glorious salt and oil. Need to do better this round.

5/27: 219.2
/logged; exercised; 74 oz water/
This drop really can’t be explained. Other than that my body is a water balloon.

DW and I broke out the bikes yesterday. We need to be somewhat ready for our mountain get-away with friends in July. She has an e-bike which will help her keep up with us on the sloped bike trails. I’m jealous, but happy for her. Naturally, I have a sore butt this morning. I will use that to remind me to do something active today.

Tossing a chicken on the smoker today some time.

5/28: 221.6
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
Had a good active day yesterday. Although for some reason MFP did not pick up on it. Chicken turned out good. Played cards at friend’s in the evening. Although I stayed on budget, the drinks and salty snacks were the wrong kind of calories.

5/29: 220.4
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
A little short on thoughts this morning…

Part of my entertainment yesterday was watching the neighbor behind get a new roof. There were 15 people up there doing the tear off. Looked like an ant hill. They started by 7:30 am and were all finished by 7:00 pm, including new gutters. Nobody was tied off. I had the cell phone ready to call 911. I didn’t use the binoculars except to check if one of the workers was drinking a beer or a Pepsi. It was Pepsi.

Just call me Mr. Kravitz. (anyone get the reference?)

5/30: 220.4
/logged; exercised; 70 0z water/
Up way too early this morning. I am below SW, but the average is up.

Food choices the next two days will be up for grabs with DBIL coming to fish with me. When I am fishing, I don’t really like to eat. And I don’t drink enough. I say, “I will take a drink after this next cast..” Then I repeat. I am like a Border Collie when I am on the water.

When I come off the water I am famished. I have been known to drag my boat through a fast food drive-through. So unwise. It works best to have an apple.

5/31: 219.4
/no logging; plenty of exercise; 64 oz water/
Avoided the fast food. And I avoided any large fish. Trying again today.
