Itβs DHβs birthday, so Iβm taking him out for dinner. He wants fish, so Iβll be able to stay within bounds. I am baking him a cake, but I plan to give some of it away. π
7/27 - 196.6
I guess I did ok with lunch out yesterday. I did have birthday cake (red velvet with cream cheese frosting) last night, but it was essentially a βmeal,β so my total calories were reasonable. I want to get out in my garden, but the Nextdoor neighbor is sitting outside smoking a stinky cigar and it turns my stomach. Itβs an ongoing problem when heβs home in the summer. Luckily, he often cares for his little grandkids and doesnβt smoke in front of them. Anyway, my βgutβ seems much better since Iβve stopped drinking coffee (waaa!) so Iβm going to try a walk on the river greenway in a bit. Have a great Saturday!
7/28 - 196.6
I stayed up way too late reading. At least I wasnβt eating! I might need a morning nap. π Happy Sunday, everyone!

Round 267
July 25 β August 3, 2024
62 year old female, 5β5β. 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 β 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 β 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 βkidsβ, who are very much adults, a two grandsons. 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 βall in or notβ 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 motherβs 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
7/25 β 133.4 yesterday day and dinner went off without a hitch. After dinner was good, when about 9 pm came and oh man was it challenging. Anyhow, I resisted and got through. Completed 5 days eating on track. Exercise still not happening. I wonβt bore you with the excuses.
7/26 β 134.0 Uptick. I know that this is not due to calories eaten and has to be part of those small ebbs and flows that just happen. Yes, yesterday I did allow myself to eat something at 9 PM, BUT it was selected weighed and tracked, so I am OK with that. Even with those extra calories would not have exceeded my caloric needs for the day. Looks like I have made it through 7 days of thoughtful eating. I am under 135.0, which was looking like the new norm. Trying for 130 max by end of round 268.
7/27 β 134.2 glad for tracking. I am ok with scale as I am trusting the accuracy of my tracking. This morning, fingers were stiff from packaged rice pilaf last night, and digestive system is not up to par. I am expecting it to shake out over the next few days. Tonight I am facing going out to dinner, so the sodium issue will repeat itself. I have looked at the menu and am pre-tracking my dinner. I am going to do my usual trick of ordering a nice appetizer as my entrΓ©e. I find that to be a happy compromise. I get a portion controlled delicious meal with none of the additional calories from the side dishes.
7/28 β 134.4 Ok, so last night went not quite as planned. I ordered an actual entrΓ©e and ate the whole thing. I did not eat the served bread and oil and drank only half a glass of wine. Not perfect, but good enough. I did track everything when I got home. Yes, I was over, but nominally and was honest with myself. I accept that.
Today is going to be another tricky day, and actually more difficult. DS is having us over for a cookout with GFβs parents. So there is that challenging situation of not eating food made by other gracious hosts. I think my approach is going to be to just serve myself an appropriate portion β once. This get together is mid-day, so I should be able to tailor my evening calories to compensate the best I can.

I think she got into the habit when DGS was small with diaper bag maybe (to hold his snacks?) I'm not sure, but she is so tiny that the bags are bigger than her! No, I don't need her pulling stuff out and offering it to me. Sometimes I'm strong and say no to her fancy chocolates. "No thanks, I have some dark cacao. I'll have a square of it later after dinner". etc. But when I'm going through these weak times, its rough. Time for another talk! I hate to deflate her, but I don't need to be INFLATED with calories and carbs!
@deepwoodslady Ok, Iβm letting my POβd side loose here, and you may not like what I say, but here goesβ¦. I have no idea why your daughter has to bring totes full of food to your house (or everywhere), or why sheβs there half the week, but you need to be tough and direct if the presence of that food overwhelms you, especially if she insists on offering you foods that endanger your health. Itβs like bringing booze to a recovering alcoholic. Tell her not to bring foods you canβt eat into your homeβthey are poison to you. Your home should be your safe place. She is making it unsafe both physically and emotionally. Establish boundaries and insist she respect them. Sheβs an adult and needs to start acting like a responsible one.

@RichardHaw Amazing to connect with a doctor that has such clarity. If you are looking for lower impact cardio, you could try speed walking. I have walked a few 5k's and beat plenty of runners (no the good ones :P ). My best pace was roughly 13 min mile and was this past spring. Now I have only walked 3 times since May 1st. I need to get back to it.
@Skyleen75 Bravo for recognizing that the 5 lbs is an impossible fat gain. It would mean an overage of something like 16,000 calories. Tracking helps me to understand what fluctuations are real or not. I am guessing tomorrow will look better.
@Utmom81 Sorry about your father's fall setting you back. My dad fell Oct 2021, and it was a trigger as well for me. Fortunately (if you look at my spoiler), I came back Jan 2022 and was only up 7 or 8, but the scarier part were all the returned habits that I had to overcome. Dad now passed away Oct 2023, and mom has dementia, I am DPOA, executor, trustee of estate, and the one handling all bills, medication, interfacing with the private aids and facility, most medical intervention, resolving all assets (including two hoarded homes), etc etc. So easy to forget about yourself. Bravo for looking out for you!
@khahn2856 Happy Birthday! I hope it is wonderful!
@Anabirgite The cleaning you are doing is difficult but ultimately is a gift to yourself. I am actively still trying to de-hoard the second of my parents homes (one done and sold). So far I have take 15 full GMC Acadia truck fulls from it. I expect to need to take 9 more out before I can meet with a RE agent. Seeing my parents' situation, that is landing on family (mostly me) and not them, is motivating me to remove all that is not actually needed from my home bit by bit. The gift of being older now is that I have less of "Maybe I'll use that in X years". I do not want my kids to be going through what I am going through. Good luck, you can do it. Isn't there an expression "how can you eat an elephant?" "One bite at a time". You will get through that clutter.4 -

@deepwoodslady Saving Private Ryan introduced the acronym FUBAR to audiences, sparking speculation about its authenticity as a World War II expression. FUBAR stands for "F*****D Up Beyond Recognition" and is used in the film to describe missions or events that descend into chaos.

In regards to daughter, I agree. I mean, I know it is just her way. She actually carries her totes EVERYWHERE she goes. I think she got into the habit when DGS was small with diaper bag maybe (to hold his snacks?) I'm not sure, but she is so tiny that the bags are bigger than her! No, I don't need her pulling stuff out and offering it to me. Sometimes I'm strong and say no to her fancy chocolates. "No thanks, I have some dark cacao. I'll have a square of it later after dinner". etc. But when I'm going through these weak times, its rough. Time for another talk! I hate to deflate her, but I don't need to be INFLATED with calories and carbs!
I feel the parent pain Donna! kids can be perfect in 1000 ways and still be clueless sometimes! They're all very comfortable taking us for granted. My son included!! I think most parents have felt the same. I'll give them a pass once or twice, but if I get to 3? Houston we have a problem.
That means you're not listening, understand how vital this is, or care enough to make an effort.
I've had to tell my own son a version of ~ I love you dearly but why do I have to keep telling you how your choices are stressing me out and literally putting my health at risk? You should be supporting and encouraging me, not making a rough ride worse! I know you're not doing it on purpose and I'm not trying to make you feel bad. I'm reminding you I'm your mother and I need you to do this. (EYES LOCKED) --- ARE YOU. HEARING. ME? You don't have to be perfect, just on your A-game about this. Can you do that?
I'd be disappointed and HURT if he didn't make @ least a solid B effort after all of that!! but hope I haven't overstepped. Kids need to be called out on their sh%t, and we need to stop making excuses for them.
@reshii_devi so Well Said and so True!~!3 -

(IE) Intentional eating: Recognizing the food on my plate, taking small bites, putting down the utensil, consciously chewing, tasting the flavor, feeling the texture and stopping before I feel full. Giving myself time to recognize the difference between hunger and satiety.
@Onewomanswalk I need more IM and IE. Especially the IE part. I still eat like I'm starving, working in the factory and on a 10 minute break with 500 others and a long walk to the breakroom (true story). I really shouldn't be swallowing everything whole so often!3 -

Richard, male, 67.
6' 1"
HW 235
GW 185
Round goals: > 3 miles/day walking (1:00 time wise), more stretching as I'm having some aching and aggravation of knee and back issues, and trying to get better at golf (this is my year to actually learn how to play the game).
7/25 Thu: 193.7, walked 1:04, hit the driving range for golf. Still having problems with right quads and knee.
7/26 Fri: 196.2, walked 1:25, 9 holes of golf. Can't seem to shake leg muscle issues.
7/27 Sat: 193.4, no walking as spent the morning helping friends move and aft/evening on a casino bus trip. Didn't over indulge diet wise so that was a plus even if the aerobic exercise was missing. Got some strength work in moving appliances though.
@RichardHaw Awww. I miss the casino bus trips. I used to drive out to Grayling or to Gaylord to hop on but they have cut those stops. All the other stops are just so far! Miss the U.P. It sounds like you burned a lot of calories helping the friends move. And I know there is always a lot of walking in the Casino. Nice drop on the scale today! I hope you won, or at least broke even!3 -

@deepwoodslady Ok, Iβm letting my POβd side loose here, and you may not like what I say, but here goesβ¦. I have no idea why your daughter has to bring totes full of food to your house (or everywhere), or why sheβs there half the week, but you need to be tough and direct if the presence of that food overwhelms you, especially if she insists on offering you foods that endanger your health. Itβs like bringing booze to a recovering alcoholic. Tell her not to bring foods you canβt eat into your homeβthey are poison to you. Your home should be your safe place. She is making it unsafe both physically and emotionally. Establish boundaries and insist she respect them. Sheβs an adult and needs to start acting like a responsible one.
@Sheilaboneham I learned a new acronym today from Jaine. FUBAR. I agree, this is definitely what it is.2 -

07/25 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/26 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/27 -189.4- (Trend weight 189.2) Still trying to lose the bulk and bloat from travel. I started back on the water pill on orders of the cardiologist for a one week experiment. Daily this time instead of every-other-day. Lots of water shed yesterday until about 3:00 then nothing. I assume my weight was even higher before shedding. Today I am making a crock pot chicken parmesan dinner which is loaded with pasta. I will make today an OMAD day, sticking to very low carb liquids during the day (broth, black coffee, water) to offset the damage although I know I will probably eat some approved snacks later tonight. Itβs an easy meal for the whole group and something Iβve been craving. Iβm trying to show myself that I can have the things I crave if I fit it into my day properly and eat in the correct portions. On keto I was eating less than 20 carbs per day. Now I am keeping it at under 100 which makes it totally different than before. This allows so many more foods and now that I can eat them at a higher level (carbs), I need to learn to control it. Much different than avoiding it altogether. Tweaking, Tweakingβ¦..
07/28 -189.2- (Trend weight 189.5) Iβll be traveling a couple of hours each way tomorrow for a new doctor. A foot specialist of some kind. Then next month I will be sent for some painful foot testing and also another new doctor (neurologist) who will also try to figure out my feet issue which is likely diabetic neuropathy IMHO. Lunch will be out tomorrow which never helps the cause. Usually I am safe though when Iβm back at home, but not lately. Iβve got to get my home habits back in order and instill peace again with my kitchen because right now it is a battlefield! Iβm leaving early tomorrow so Iβll try to get an early weight on the scale and post later. However, Iβll likely skip Tuesdayβs weigh-in after the travel. Iβm usually filled with temporary bloat that is a bit meaningless in the big picture. Iβll need a day to let things settle in so that the real Donna can please stand up.

π· 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 267 (my 197th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; (same as last few rounds & hoping committed to achieve them this time!! β Again!!)
β’ First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
β’ to get to/stay under 139 pounds,
β’ to lose!
I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.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, itβs 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.*****

Day/Weight/Comment
07/24 β¦..188.6β¦.. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/25 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/26 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)
07/27 -189.4- (Trend weight 189.2) Still trying to lose the bulk and bloat from travel. I started back on the water pill on orders of the cardiologist for a one week experiment. Daily this time instead of every-other-day. Lots of water shed yesterday until about 3:00 then nothing. I assume my weight was even higher before shedding. Today I am making a crock pot chicken parmesan dinner which is loaded with pasta. I will make today an OMAD day, sticking to very low carb liquids during the day (broth, black coffee, water) to offset the damage although I know I will probably eat some approved snacks later tonight. Itβs an easy meal for the whole group and something Iβve been craving. Iβm trying to show myself that I can have the things I crave if I fit it into my day properly and eat in the correct portions. On keto I was eating less than 20 carbs per day. Now I am keeping it at under 100 which makes it totally different than before. This allows so many more foods and now that I can eat them at a higher level (carbs), I need to learn to control it. Much different than avoiding it altogether. Tweaking, Tweakingβ¦..
07/28 -189.2- (Trend weight 189.5) Iβll be traveling a couple of hours each way tomorrow for a new doctor. A foot specialist of some kind. Then next month I will be sent for some painful foot testing and also another new doctor (neurologist) who will also try to figure out my feet issue which is likely diabetic neuropathy IMHO. Lunch will be out tomorrow which never helps the cause. Usually I am safe though when Iβm back at home, but not lately. Iβve got to get my home habits back in order and instill peace again with my kitchen because right now it is a battlefield! Iβm leaving early tomorrow so Iβll try to get an early weight on the scale and post later. However, Iβll likely skip Tuesdayβs weigh-in after the travel. Iβm usually filled with temporary bloat that is a bit meaningless in the big picture. Iβll need a day to let things settle in so that the real Donna can please stand up.

Sending you a big hug this morning Donna, if I were in your shoes right now I would be feeling very down. Everyone has your best interest at heart, I'm rooting for you to rise above all your challenges and feel at peace with yourself xx5 -
@Chapter_3 π€£ but your eggs are shaped like a rubber ducky so the poultry theme is there!
Also that looks delicious. The addition of basil to the yogurt- Iβm loving that.
@SheilaBoneham @deepwoodslady I mentally did a long slow clap for that post.3 -

I enjoy reading everyoneβs posts with my morning coffee.
Rnd 267 End Weight 174.8
7/25- 174.2
7/26- 172.8
7/27- DNW
7/28- 177.6
7/29- 174.8 it never comes down quite as fast as it goes up. I didnβt eat any of the right things yesterday but I did eat less. Iβm not sure why I canβt just throw away the potato chips instead of eating a handful every time I go into the kitchen.
I hope typing that sentence motivates me to just toss them. I can already hear DH βwhat happened to the chips??β Ugh he has been eating absolutely TERRIBLE for a few weeks now and I literally get anxiety when I see the remnants of his late night snacks or watch him polish off an entire can of nuts while making dinner. Iβve made some gentle statements but Iβm gearing up for a serious conversation. He is very capable of turning this around but just as good at blaming everything but the food he is shoveling into his pie hole.7
