6/01 178.2
6/02 179.2
6/03 179.0
6/04 178.6 Not the worst round. I am thinking that my bump up after my colonoscopy low is my body reacting to “starvation”
Exercise, activity and calories are all good but I am not eating throughout the day. I just get so busy and am so focused on my work that I forget to eat.
By the time I get home it’s usually only an hour before I go workout and I can’t eat so close to a workout. On workdays I’m not eating until 6:30 at night.
I know I do better if I eat something between noon and 2pm. I am going to work on this next round.12 -

Thank you @quiltingjaine, looking forward to another round
5/26 127.8 Weight is up this morning. Went out to dinner last night. Chose the taco salad which is probably high in sodium, and more calories than I thought..lol!
5/27 127.8
5/28 129.2 Way too much salty food and alcohol yesterday.
5/29 128.2 Well that's an improvement, still not back to my starting weight yet. It's raining here today so I plan to finish hanging pictures in my newly painted bedroom. We did a full remodel on our master bath and bedroom this winter and I still haven't finished putting everything back in order. Just been too busy..lol!
5/30 127.0 Finally back on track.
5/31 126.6
6/1 126.2
6/2 126.0
6/3 126.4 Popcorn last night
6/4 126.2 My goal was within reach. Lost 1.2 lbs. I think a combination of salty popcorn and not getting enough sleep for the past few nights is playing a part in this. My calories and nutrition have been good. Overall I'm happy with the results. Looking forward to the next round11 -

EW RND 260 221.6
Goals for this round:
1. Drink at least 90 oz of water a day
2. Close my rings
3. Log my food
5/26 219.6 I’m not expecting a 2lb drop to hold, but considering I gained weight at the start of the last round, I’ll take this even if it is just for a day.
5/27 218.2 went most of the day without eating any protein and found myself getting hungry faster. Fortunately we were out most of the day, so snacking wasn’t an option. While I enjoyed what I ate, I definitely understand the benefits of higher protein!
5/28 221.0 given how much I ate yesterday, I’m surprised this isn’t higher. The day started really well and ended not so great as I found myself feeling hungry a lot and rather than finding something to do or drinking water, I ate. I’ll be back on track today and hopefully see this drop back down quickly.
5/29 219.4
5/30 218.4
5/31 DNW Woke up with a migraine and feeling super bloated. Skipping the scale today because l know it won’t be accurate and I don’t want the let down of seeing it back up again. Going to drink lots of water today and keep on track with food.
6/1 217.8 I’m glad I skipped the weigh in yesterday because today’s weight feels more realistic. Migraine and bloating are gone and bloating is gone. Ready for a great weekend!
6/2 218.4 Up a little, but given the fact we went to the bar for fight night and I had late night chips and queso, I’m okay with this. I’m actually happy that I was able to keep myself from eating too much and I didn’t feel like I was giving up a good night out because I was “dieting.”
6/3 218.0
6/4 219.4 A little frustrated with this weight because I was below calories yesterday. I did snack more than usual, but I kept them small and healthy. Not sure if this is water weight due to prednisone for poison ivy, or just because my body wants to be mean. I'm hoping to start seeing a daily downward trend rather than up and down for 10 days. At least I finished the round down by 2.2 pounds. Since starting with Round 260 I'm down 3 pounds.Hoping for Round 262 to bring bigger results. Onward and upward!7 -
Hi, I'm Charissa, back for another round. I will keep coming back and I will get this thing right, sooner or later.
Hopefully sooner!
Looks like it going to be later....
Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
So here we go 2024... my motto -
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!
And again we go....totally missed round 260, time and effort (in the kitchen) just got away from me. Here's something else I need to remember.
“lose weight in the kitchen, get fit in the gym”
This is actually a book that I will look into. I am killing the gym part and have gotten stronger. The kitchen... I've been working with a program that gives me 1650 calories... if I go over those 1650 calories, (and I do) I'm pretty much in maintenance or gaining. I need wiggle room because there's aways something. I'm going to do some math and have another "base" goal, leaving wiggle room so that I remain under 1650 no matter what.
But... all or none mentality also... I have lots of "stuff" going on this weekend so I don't expect to follow plan until 5/28.
Goals this round:
Goal/Current State
- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget 🍎- Ended round 257 very well
- Macros - hit Protein ✅ - Doing Well
- Water - 64oz minimum > trying hard for 80💧 Hit 80 a few times and rarely below 64oz
- Closing my rings M-F🚶🏽 -Excellent

5/28 222.2 Ha... crazy weekend with birthday celebrations. Now it is time to make a change. I'm going back to IF 16:8 Sun - Mon and 20-4 Fri into Sat (it worked before) and a range of calories from 1250 to 1600. I will plan for 1250 but leave "wiggle" room to 1600 and continue for the next 60 days and see where I land. I will continue my exercise but with a little less intensity than what I have done for the past 6 months. I feel focused.
5/29 221.0 coming back down! My wiggle room worked yesterday. I aimed for 1250 and ended with 1628 with both protein and carbs within range! I didn't make the wisest of choices last night but I was within range and stopped eating by 9. (Goal was 8pm)
5/30 221.4
5/31 222.0 Day 1 was good, Day 2 and 3, not so much. My husband decided to go snack shopping. I come home to honey mustard pretzel, cashews, cookies... I don't even know what else. I'm really not sure what he was thinking but once again I asked him to not buy that stuff. If it's there and I see it, I will eat it. On the bright side, getting back on track with IF went well, 16 hours done easily.
6/1 219.6
6/2 219.6
6/3 219.6 - I think I updated the wrong day yesterday.
6/4 220.4 ~ wrong way but everything was on target. I did have some planned "sodium rich" snacks, so I'm sure it's just water retention from the salt. Had 84+ ounces of water. Exercised for 70 minutes (combo: Cardio, ST & Core), and calorie total was 1215 with no alcohol. 🍎✅💧🚶🏽 Ready for the new round!!
@chapter_3 Thank you for your feedback. I have Atomic Habits. I've read about half the book so I need to finish. I will check out Habit Mechanic to get an understanding of their approach.
I too have stopped and paused at this statement and will reflect on it ALL day. Boy does that hit hard!

Day. Weight. Comments.
5/26 - 198.6
Pizza. Nuf said. I’m sure the salt & water weight will come right back off.
5/27 - 197.8
A little better. I went out for my usual Monday breakfast with friend and stuck to scrambled eggs and 2 strips of bacon while she indulged in one of the huge breakfast combos. Pleased with myself. 😊
5/28 - 197.6
It sure goes on more easily than it comes off!

Creeping back down. I did snack last night (popcorn), but ran a few calories off with Charlie at agility class earlier. Here he is flying up the A-frame. 😊

Almost back to where I ended the last round, finally.

I’m not doing well at all with the no food after 7 thing, but I am eating more veggies and protein. I guess it’s a draw for now. I stayed up wayyyyy too late last night reading. I may need an afternoon nap before noon. 🤣
6/03 - 197
It was a pretty quiet weekend here, so no news. 😊

Ok, close enough. Better next round, I hope.

I'm Crystal! I am still aiming for 1260 calories/day, around 100 carbs or less, low sugar and high protein. Plan to exercise daily when I'm not away.

RND 261 Home from vacation and not tracking for almost a week. Was nice but I'm looking forward to getting back to tracking, eating healthy and getting the weight back off.5/26 DNW6/2 166.9 Can't believe this year is halfway over. Yesterday was good. I skipped lunch because we were out and about (I never eat breakfast)..was real hungry at dinner lol, so I made up for it 😆. Still under on calories though, and was able to walk. Been trying to encourage my daughter to exercise and start eating healthier. She'll be 15 this month and shes over 200 lbs, 5'3. She has gained a lot of weight just in the last year and I know she is self conscious about it, although she doesn't say. It's hard to deal with because I don't want to upset her, but I also know me not doing anything about it is hurting her more (My husband is opposite, he could care less about hurting feelings). So I told her that if she walks with me without giving me trouble, I'd take her to let her get some stuff from dollar tree on Fridays. Thankfully for me it's cheap, but she loves getting makeup and other things in there lol.
5/27 169.5 This number isn't as bad as I expected. I did do a lot of walking while we were at the beach but there was also alcohol, pizza and junk food involved. While vacation at the beach is always amazing, I'm glad to be back and to get on a routine.
5/28 167.3 😄 Great day yesterday. I did have pasta last night so I didn't expect the bigger drop, but I also peed allll day.
5/29 167.5 Ate a bag of microwave popcorn with extra salt last night watching a movie with the kids. Should have skipped the popcorn but oh well. We are supposed to take the boat out to the lake and go fishing this afternoon. Hubby worked last night and came home this morning not feeling well, so we shall see what he feels like when he wakes up.
5/30 DNW- drank a cup of coffee and glass of water before I thought about weighing. We had a good day on the lake yesterday. Stayed in my daily goals except for exercise.
5/31 167.8 Forgot to post yesterday- Need to really step up if I want to lose this last bit of weight. Feeling like my body is holding on to water. Didn't drink a lot of water yesterday though so making sure to do that today. Busy day but I was able to get a short walk. My oldest boy got his braces on and he looks too cute.
6/1 166.9 Back down to my start weight from last round. Not sure how accurate it is because I slept late this morning. Feeling better today in my stomach area so maybe!
6/3 167.1 On target with goals yesterday!
6/4 166.7 Glad to see a drop but I didn't meet my goals at all yesterday. No exercise and was over on calories/sugar. Back on track today!

@deepwoodslady Donna, You don’t have to go to a restaurant, you can pack a “good for you” (YAY!) meal in a small cooler and avoid all of those bad choices. I do meat and cheese roll ups with a little mayo. I even put a strip of pickle in them the first time I traveled with them. I wasn’t particularly happy about the TSA agent giving them a hard squeeze but other than having the juice squeezed out, they were great and very satisfying.4

@quiltingjaine Of course I could travel with a cooler. But being from a small Amish town with virtually nothing, I must admit I do look forward to that occasional restaurant meal since traveling is about the only time we really get the opportunity to get something out, often trying some place new. A break from preparing food too is also nice. There was a time in my life that I actually looked forward to having surgery or being in the hospital just to get prepared food, sad but true, lol. I do, however, bring my approved snacks on extra-long trips. I refuse to buy any junk from the gas stations or rest stops.3 -

06/02 -183.4- (Trend weight185.2)
06/03 -184.6- (Trend weight185.2) Not too bad of a day yesterday. I stayed within calorie though my carbs were over target. I used the exercise bike for 32 minutes and I did a lot of deep cleaning in the house. Up today on the scale but its probably catching up to the binges/splurges I had on night time snacks recently. Today I may head out of town for the planned trip of shopping. It depends when my drywall guy gets done for the day. I hate to go because I know that lunch or dinner will be out and it will just be another day of a heavier weight on the scale tomorrow. A rollercoaster I’d like to stop. However, I really would like to go and get it out of the way. The projects they are starting will keep them later the rest of the week. Regardless, I know I’ll be right back on top of my plan in the days following so I suppose it is what it is. Have a great week everyone. Crush it!
06/04 -182.6- (Trend weight184.9) A nice drop today which I am grateful for. Trying again to ward off the night time over-indulgences, I ate dinner at 9:30 pm. About 10:30 I made a protein shake after researching if it was okay to drink one at night so close to bed (bed about 1:30 am). It’s fine, and even helpful depending on what article you read I suppose. About 30 minutes after drinking it I felt suddenly very hungry. I ignored it and it did finally pass. I did not feel the need later for any other snacks so in the end I think it may have helped. My goal was to have the protein help fill me and the sweetness of it satisfy my sweet tooth. Last night it did seem to work. I did not sleep well or sleep much, but that has been going on for days. I’m really tweaking and playing around with so many aspects of health and weight loss right now. The perfect storm is out there somewhere! Down 2.0 lbs this round which basically happened overnight. See you all in 262!

5/26 133.0 Great Greek yesterday with local grand children (all in their 20’s except DGGS) since their mom and dad are in the Bahamas for a well deserved vacation. Today a housewarming at the new home of our blind friend and his daughter. Tomorrow a Memorial Day community picnic.
5/27 134.0 I’m fine with that. Memorial Day community picnic this evening. Pulled pork(?) in SUPER SWEET sauce, “salad” was iceberg lettuce. All in all it was a pretty disappointing meal. Two adult beverages.
5/28 135.0 OOPS! I seem to have not posted.
5/29 134.5 Getting eating under control again.
5/30 134.0
5/31 133.0 Finally got my nails done. Took Oskar to the vet. Doing labs to see if his diet needs to change. He weighed 16# in late October and was 14.8# yesterday in spite of eating double portions or more for the last 2 months.
6/1 134.0 Yesterday was our last community Arts & Crafts gathering until autumn. We had a Tea with many goodies and I am weak. A week from today is an ice cream social. I need to develop a backbone!
6/2 134.0 Great Greek today. Other than small salad and 4 or 5 oz of chicken (1 skewer) I had a snack of 4 radishes.
6/3 133.0 Juan’s Flaming Fajitas this evening with friends from the neighborhood. Someone needs to keep the chips away. House made and so good!
6/4 132.5 (I think) Dinner last night didn’t happen as friend has a cold and didn’t want to go out. We ate leftover pot roast - one of my favorites. Yesterday was a hard day. Lab results on Oskar revealed a few serious issues- diabetes, inflamed pancreas and likelihood of developing kidney disease in the next 12-24 months. Needless to say, I am devastated. Tomorrow the vet will come and help him cross the Rainbow Bridge. The least we can do is avoid the further stress of the car ride and “cold” feeling of the medical office.9 -

5/27-177-Had a busy week getting ready for DS’s graduation party at our house. Now just putting things away and getting rid of food that we don’t normally eat. It was nice to have family and friends along with nice weather.
Going fishing in Alaska in July and want to get rid of 15 lbs. by then. I honestly am serious THIS TIME! I promise!!!
5/28-176-Well, that is a start. Did a lot of yard work and played a lot of ping pong and sweat like crazy.
5/29-176-The neighbor lady gave me a loaf of Portuguese SweetBread for fixing her drip. Of course I came home and ate two pieces, which I shouldn’t have. Ugh! I am not eating anymore of it.
5/30-176-Thats OK. At dinner I went to go scoop creamy pesto sauce on my broccoli and scooped a bunch of extra chicken up with it…..Gardened after dinner. Need to ride the horse today.
5/31-176
6/4-179-Went to a fundraiser dinner last night. Avoided bread, dessert and alcohol but still had enough salty food. I will see everyone next round!6 -

Goal: Calorie Cycle for a weekly average between 1200 - 1500. Eat more vegetables and fruit. Drink 80oz water each day. Walk. Start building strength back using light weights.
Previous Comments5/26 - 178.0 - Up a little today.
5/27 - 178.8 - This is most likely salt and not enough water.
5/28 - 178.4 - I'm a salt freak. My husband even told me one day, can you just tap the salt instead of wildly shaking it and adding so much, not to mention it's all over everything. So, I started tapping - huh, it does help to use less and no more mess. LOL. He literally only eats added salt on boiled eggs. That's it. And the only process food he eats, which does have salt, is tortilla chips. My mom, too, I couldn't believe she could eat a potato without salt For me, it's partly habit, too. I even eat it on watermelon, oranges, apples, in oatmeal - I really can't think of anything I don't add salt to except sweets. My husband and mom have shown me it can be done. So, I try again today. I'm starting with putting 1 tsp of salt in a baggie and only using it for the day. I'll reduce this down over the next weeks. I also probably need to buy unsalted butter. One thing at a time - I don't want to go too far out on a limb LOL. I need to experiment with spices more and use lemon. I think I would have done better over the years if I had high blood pressure, but my blood pressure is very low, but that doesn't mean it couldn't jump up as I'm aging. I look very forward to seeing what changes I see due to less salt.
(editing to say I knocked on wood after the high blood pressure comment. I know many people (my mom did, too) struggle with this and I'm very lucky, but it doesn't mean that luck will continue if I don't change my habits!)
5/29 177.4 - I kept my salt intake to 1 1/4 tsp salt. I'm happy with that! Will keep it at 1tsp today, and I only drank 40oz of water. I'll get 80oz today.
@Skyleen75 - Thanks for your comments about your husband's salt habits. Very funny. I hope you feel better. Going from your headcold to a colonoscopy - yike! If you don't mind me asking - What is "market" night? Re: "It is also market night so a busy day for me. I am a firm believer in fake it til you make it!!!"
Editing with this that I just read:
Extra sodium causes you to lose more calcium in your urine. Sodium and calcium share the same transport in the kidney so if you eat high sodium foods it will increase calcium leakage in the urine. Therefore, a high sodium diet can increase your chances for developing another stone.
I have had many kidney stones (and analyzed as a calcium). My bad habits are catching up with me since I'm getting older, and I can tell it is just harder to recover. It's never too late to change!!
5/30 - 176.4 - Finally, I'm back to where I was before I decided to eat a ton of pecans in 2 days, and I slacked off a little in other areas too. I only had 1 tsp salt yesterday. It wasn't that hard to keep my salt to 1 tsp because a lot of shaking the salt shaker is habit, and having to be mindful to take some out of a baggie helped. I'll cut back further in a week.

5/30 - 176.4
5/31 - 176.4
6/01 - 176.6 I'm very glad to be solidly 176.x and not jumping back up.
6/02 - DNW - I didn't sleep more than 2 hours last night. I finally got up around 2a. I ate around 6:30a, and went back to bed around 7:30a, and didn't get up until 10:30a. I say all this because there was no way I was going to weigh knowing that it was not going to be an accurate reading, even if it was down 2 pounds, I wouldn't put it down. Hopefully tonight will be better!
6/03 - 176.8 - It will drop as long as I don't go off the rails. I'm sticking to plan.
6/04 - 176.4 - The scale said 175.x for a split second, then settled on 176.4. I'm glad I lost this round but I'm just ready to be done with 176.x. Looking forward to the next round!

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.
6/1: 220.4
/no logging; plenty of exercise; 70 oz water/
Back to logging today. Not too much damage done while fishing. In fact the functional exercise was great.
On a side note, my dog munched from the kitty litter box at the groomer on Wednesday. I think that might be why she has the Hershy Squirts. Gross. DW took a sample to the vet yesterday. Awaiting results. She is locked in the laundry room until further notice. This last paragraph qualifies as TMI, but I just needed to talk to someone about it. HA! Sorry.
6/2: 221.2
6/3: 220.4
/no logging; exercised; lots of water/
Very busy. Dog still not well, but showing signs of wellness. We put her on an intermittent fasting diet. 24/0. This may be changed soon. 😊
5/25: 221.6
SW on day before this round.
6/4: 221.2
Disappointing but well deserved ending to the round. Too much freelance eating.
@quiltingjaine I am so sorry to hear about Oskar.

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.4 -
@quiltingjaine My heart aches for you. When we had to put our 14 year old golden retriever to sleep from cancer, I kept thinking how in the world could we make this decision, and then realized that it was not a "decision" we were making, we had no choice out of our love for him and not wanting him to suffer any longer. No words really help, but I am so sorry.4 -
Thank you all for condolences. Today will be a hard day. 😢3

I'm not sure what's going on, but clearly I need to change up something. I'm thinking of tracking calories this week to get a feel for what I'm doing and see if I notice a trend!
