115-118 Ultimate Goal Weight
This roller coaster of my life that I was shoved onto 2 years ago continues to careen and somehow speed up! I have every intention of fully participating in this round, thank goodness no traveling for next 10 days. But to just add jet fuel to my chaos, my neighbor offered to buy my house last weekend and I said yes. So now 2 months to move. Eeeks!!! Looking forward to starting my next chapter in my life and getting off this current ride. Losing these last few pounds, which seems be the only thing I cannot lose seems like a great place to start. I need to weigh myself, weigh my food, track my food and participate on this blog. These goals have worked magic for me before. Look forward to reading all of your postings...
6/25: 122.2 Down a pound from last week - been waiting for this challenge to start. Also I am going to not drink on weekdays, lucky I am planning to play pickleball this evening, such a calorie burner.
6/26: 121.6💥 Weighed myself 💥 weighed my food💥, tracked my food💥 and posting💥 Yeah! Played pickleball last night 2 hours, great workout and reliever of stress.I guess once the inspection is done I will know for sure sale is going thru or not and that should relieve some stress and then add some more as I then put move plan in to action.
6/27: 121.4 Yeah!!! Weighed me, my food (almost all), tracked and posted- Yesterday overwhelmed with 30 years of paperwork, shredded so much because trash day today. Emptied my kitchen shelves- almost all Sunday- should have activated my watch to track my activity moving that trash can to the street! Debating having a garage sale next Saturday, July-5-6, could this be too soon? What if house sale falls thru? Eeks! Exercised late last night since so behind shredding paperwork. Actually ate just 20 something grams under the MFP allotment - shocked inched down. Tracking works...

This avoidance of logging has been my downfall lately. When I am diligent about logging, it works on my mind. I ask myself, “do a really want to face logging this snack?”
The food logging thing is what attracted me to MFP in the first place. So easy! Just do it Jeff!
About macros. I know they are important, but I share a grocery list with my DW and she doesn’t give two hoots about getting that granular. Plus, I find it almost impossible to meet protein goals, so that pushes me away from macro gazing also. Maybe I should try again. Protein snacks?

/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
Late post today. I can report that today I have already gone fishing with DGS and gone on a hike with him too. I did most of the fishing and he played around with the worms! 😊 The hike was partially in the rain.
I can also report that most of the weight I gained since yesterday has left the premises. You know what I mean.

Back to the early morning post. Not much going on since yesterday’s late day post.
BUT, I realize that I didn’t mention that my mom had a routine Dr. appointment Tuesday morning. Since my mom is a hypochondriac (I don’t use that term lightly or to be mean) she used the opportunity to present her concerns. Out of the blue the Dr. asked “how is your heart feeling?” Mom says “I feel some pressure.” BOOM! Dr. sent her to the emergency room immediately. Six hours later she was discharged from the hospital with what amounted to a false alarm. (not without $$$$$ various tests.) E.R. doctor says, “she is very healthy.” Mom’s analysis, “maybe my bra was too tight.” My mom loves medical attention. I think we need to find a new Doctor honestly. This isn’t the first time Dr. has pushed her responsibility off to the emergency room.
Rant over.

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.7 -
HW- 242

Feb 5th 2024- 200.4
I’m someone who has struggled with weight my entire life. I have binged since childhood and cycled through purging cycles as an adult. I’ve been over 240 pounds and I’ve maintained good stretches at 140 pounds.
I was full strict keto for two years which means virtually sugar free. I’ve spent years of my life weighing and logging every morsel of food, counting every calorie, balancing every macro. Working on my fiber, my minerals and my water intake.
Sometimes I need that hyper focusing. Sometimes it all feels like different sides of the same eating disorder. I question what parts of this is genetic, what is learned behavior or reactions to trauma.
This time around I am just trying to be honest with myself, take responsibility and make as many good choices as I can each day.
Your honesty this morning is PROFOUND/RAW/ HONEST/ REAL. I am you. Every word.
Thank you for sharing your heart. I’m honestly looking in the mirror right now.
For me, it’s an addiction… not just food, but the radical ups and downs, obsessions, etc… There are many here that share a common history … You’ve expressed my exact path ….
The past year has been the most clean for me… The difference for me this year is journaling with a holistic approach to mind, body, spirit and changing small BAD BAD BAD habits and thought processes into helpful ones. It is a constant struggle/awareness and I just have to accept that. That is who I am. It’s something that I now realize will be part of me forever because it’s how I’m wired. Some days it IS exhausting, some days it’s not. Whatever this “condition” is called… I have it.
I just want to give you a great big hug, cry a little with you, and tell you - you’re not alone.
❤️ Carolyn

Let’s Go! 💪🏻🙌🏻⚡️
R264 Habits: (same as 263)
** ✅R263- WOE: P:E
Protein g > (Cg + Fg). Try 1.5:1 or better 2:1. Was on Keto/Ketovore/MAD. Moving toward increased protein and less fat.
✅🏋️♀️20 min/ day or 30 min 4x per week. RECORD DETAIL.
✅ 🙏📝 🧐60 min 5x /week (Pray, journal, and research)
✅🥩115g -130g of protein
✅🛏️💤 tracking sleep
NSVs/Journey Reflections…. 👇🏻
********************************
👇🏻Review since my first R231
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 15g of net carbs/ day
6. ✅Clean P:E 115-130g Protein (this is new)
7. ✅HH Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
8. ✅💦80oz daily
9. ✅Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
10. 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
Tremendous progress since last July, but still “skinny-fat”. I want 🏋️♀️to become a healthy habit too. … 🏋️♀️20 min per day or 30 min 3-4x per week. 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.
Rotating 115g to 130g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !
Let’s do R264!!🙌🏻

Solid day. Slept yucky. Not enough water. So darn hot yesterday… need more 💦 today- even tho 80oz feeling dehydrated….
Really want to sleep better /feeling cortisol levels still high.
This week DGS coming over after soccer camp each day for an hour or so…. He is my “why” - #HSF Focus on balance, mobility & functional training.
Let’s Go!

✅Pg 123 P:E 2:1 🏋️♀️20 min 📝🚶♀️6.5k 🛏️💤 5hrs
Up too early but slept like a rock for 5 hrs. Tried to go back to sleep but couldn’t. Will make lemonade.
P:E going well. Hitting macro “ratios” is an interesting experiment. Will continue thru this round then assess.
Solid 🏋️♀️ yesterday. Feeling it. (Good!) Still pushing myself to “DO IT” cuz it certainly is not a habit yet! Typical summer heat here. Today might be a rest day. Will see how I feel when the rest of the world wakes up. 😃.
Oh, the scale? More 💦💦💦 than usual and kept my routine. My body adores routine! I “surged” two days 6/24 & 6/25 and after reviewing my 6 mo stats, 130-131 is “my zone”. (What else am I going to do at 4a.m.?) Anything out of that range is a “systems fluctuation”. Still striving to build functional strength, agility & balance.
Let’s strive today! #HSF#helpfulhabits

This morning all I can think about is that I slept nine hours! No nap yesterday … I fell asleep on the couch around 7 PM… Slept straight through the night -feel great! Good day 💪🏻yesterday! Let’s hope the 💤 continues!
(I have a tennis match this evening and whenever I play at night I can’t sleep🤞🏻)
Scale⚖️thoughts: Weirdness.
I have no explanation… same as when the scale jumps up … must be my “systems”

I’m a serial dieter/gainer whose weight has varied by 50 lbs over the years; I’m working to change my relationship with food. I joined this group in 12/23 at 147, lost 22 lbs and reached my goal in 4/24. I’m now working to understand my patterns so I know where my pitfalls are. My goal is to remain within the same 3-4 lb range for good!
We’re on vacation for this entire round, which is usually the start of my “yoyo” upswing. Goal is to eat well, enjoy food and maintain my weight even when breaking from my daily routine.

Vacation starts on the 3rd!! A couple of months ago I set a goal to be between 205-203 lbs by the time we went on vacation. I’m very near that goal and would love to hit it, but realistically I don’t know if I can. I’m going to stay consistent and focus on life changes not short term wins.

6/27 - 148.1 - DOMS? I have no idea. I'm feeling and looking as lean as I was yesterday and yesterday I felt and looked leaner than I did on Tuesday. No clue. BF ended up going to the gym despite the surgeon's orders and has been very lackadaisical about it all. I'm not going to feel so bad if he keeps going against the doc's orders and ends up needing surgery/a large length of time off the gym. He's putting himself at a higher chance of surgery/long recovery away from gym because he doesn't want to skip a couple days - he wants to look big and strong...ugh. I'm very frustrated with him. Not only for doing this to himself (SD and I tried to talk sense into him with no success) but also he ruined my workout this morning because he made me stop when he stopped due to pain... like..I'm not injured, let me finish my dang workout! I did get movement in and I did my best with what I was given but I'm definitely frustrated. At least tomorrow he won't be going due to him driving to take the kids back to their mom's for the week, but if he does, we do separate workouts Mondays and Fridays. Anyway.....rant over. I've got my meals planned for the day and all fits in macros. I'm ready for them to increase, my recovery is awful right now - I'm still very sore from Monday's leg day!

Previous Day's Comments6/25 - A bit of a drop off since I've been behaving and hitting my macros these last couple of days. I'm still on my lowest macros. I think she's keeping me here since I didn't quite get to track/control much of the food on vacation. I also didn't do any dedicated workouts but I definitely got a loooot of movement being at the beach and fishing! Back into routine now - morning workouts and tracking macros. All set for today and already began pre-planning tomorrow to ensure I keep up the good work!
6/26 - I'm up a tad but I'm feeling leaner and looking a bit leaner in the mirror so I'll take it. I was slightly above macros (about 12g over carbs so 2g over my buffer window) but that was aimed at reaching my fiber goal due to missing my snack (work meeting ran from lunch to dinner with no chance to grab my snack so I had to improvise an after dinner snack). I didn't meet my step goal, either. Today I am focused on getting both in today. BF's shoulder took at turn for the worst - surgeon said no gym (even legs) until he can be seen. Fortunately, that's Monday and we don't have to wait terribly long to know what's going on. Hopefully not a surgery but I'm starting to think that's what's best otherwise it'll keep dragging out. SD and I will be going solo tomorrow and possibly Friday (she and her brother go back to their mom's for the 4th of July week on Friday so unsure if she'll go to the gym) and I'm solo for at least Monday pending doc's further instructions for BF. I hope my willpower is enough to get me up and moving!

@fmfdfa2020 and @deepwoodslady
Yes, Quilts of Honor (QOH) is a wonderful organization. Their attitude is that since the service people gave their best for us, we should give our best to them. The quilts they give out are beautiful! There are people all over the U.S.A. that donate quilt tops for veterans and QOH receives them and quilts them. I couldn’t believe that their headquarters is just 30 minutes away from me. I love going there to volunteer. I was going there once a month for a “sew day” and a fellow quilter had health issues and asked me to “cover” for her layering the quilts (cutting the backing, batting and sandwiching them together in preparation to be quilted). They are a wonderful group of patriotic ladies and are so thankful when they receive help. They have three long arm quilting machines that seem to be constantly running.4 -

41, Female, 5'7", generally active & trying to rein in the eating . Mini goal to be under 220 by my vacation in mid-September. I appreciate the accountability of this group!
6/25 - 229; Went for a walk over my lunch break and lifted weights after work. I tracked my food and did generally ok over the day.
6/26 - 227.8; Surprised this morning to see any loss after a weight lifting day! I'll take it. I went for a walk in the morning. Will focus on tracking over the rest of the day.
6/27 - 227.2; Logged food again yesterday! Also did some yard work in the evening. Woke up feeling tired so skipped my morning walk. Plan to work out at lunch today, keep logging my meals, and yank some more weeds in the garden this evening

Day/Weight/Comment
06/24 …..187.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/25 -187.8- (Trend weight 185.8)
06/26 -186.4- (Trend weight 186.1) Much better! I didn’t struggle too much with the snacking last night due to some leftover chili during my very late dinner. Plenty of protein in that chili which made it much easier to meet my protein goal—something I struggle with. I’ve been trying to fit in a protein shake here and there but sometimes it just doesn’t fit into my macros, calorie or carb allowance like I need it to. Still juggling things to make it work.
06/27 -186.6- (Trend weight 186.3) It was a very good day of meal planning and eating. But a very bad night of binge and I don’t just mean the TV. The madness has got to stop. My reno crew is not coming today and I’m already stir crazy. I may head out-of-town for any shopping I need and maybe do a little resale-ing. Lots of projects I need to do around here too though so we’ll see. I looked up what I weighed on this day last year. It feels like I’ve gotten nowhere but records show I am down nearly 12 pounds. That’s not much for an entire year of working so hard at logging, prep cooking and often (not often enough?) going without the foods I love. But it’s nothing for an old gal like me to sneeze at either. Keep going Donna. Progress is just around the bend.
