    Yesterday I went overboard a bit on the calories and salt, so I'm not surprised to be a blip up. After-work emotional stress eating. It was just an extra helping of dinner but it pushed me over.

    I decided to try going back to exercising regularly. I've been thinking about it for awhile. This is pretty big, because for years I've been afraid of hurting myself again; I strained my MCL on my right knee in 2017 doing a front deadlift, ended up having months of physical therapy. I hadn't done any regular workout exercise since. It was definitely an all-or-nothing mindset and fear-based. I'm looking to challenge those fears.

    I did unfold the treadmill to test my watch like I'd mentioned earlier in the week. It was actually tracking my steps pretty accurately and frankly, I was mildly surprised.

    I walked really slow (1.8mph; my pace in the past was usually 2.5 to 3). 🎉🫣 I did a test for 15 minutes before work; then after work I put a TV show on and walked through the episode. Aside from my usual treadmill dizziness afterwards, it went fine and my foot wasn't screaming and my knee wasn't popping. Good test.

    I had sold my weight room equipment back in 2018, bench and barbells. All except my dumbbell hand weights. No more deadlifts without a lift buddy or coach. I probably won't do goblet squats or lunges, either. But just being emotionally ready to reopen that workout door in my head.

    Hello I'm Darlene. Retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty), back for another month with this supportive group. I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023, and with this group since April 2023. I have lost 84.5 pounds since the beginning of my journey. This group (along with a couple others I am in) has played a very important part in me reaching my goals. Thank you @jm216 for setting it up again this month! I and working on my last 10ish pounds to goal (may change that when I get there). Happy to be back for another month.

    ⚖️ Lose 2% of body weight


    My July Reflection for anyone who cares to read:
    July Reflection

    July was a tough month for me. I do not really understand why I lost motivation this month, but probably a combination of not being able to do my normal exercise routine coupled with getting close to my goal and self-sabotage.

    I lost 1.5 pounds this month. My goal was to at least lose 2% of my body weight which would have been about 3 pounds. I got close for a couple of days – but then went over the top and gained some back. The good thing is that I got back at it right away and did not allow the one-day binges to continue into a weekend, or weeklong binge. Down 84.5 pounds since I started this journey.

    Exercise was different for me this month as well. The doctor asked that complete non weight bearing exercises, so no real walking. My strength, cardio, stretch, and steps were all done in the chair most of the month. I did get the green light to start up again at the end of the month and am slowly transitioning from chair to standing.

    Now for the good news – I reached the 1,500-mile marker on my quest to walk 2,024 miles in 2024, logging about 150 miles in July (mostly seated). I found a place on my Garmin app which gives me the total intentional exercise time – so much easier for me to track my second goal which was 2,024 miles of intentional exercise (I count 20 minutes as a mile). I was previously doing it on an excel spreadsheet – which probably wasn’t too accurate. With this new calculation I am at 1,181 miles to date – just where I should be to complete it for the year. I can do it.

    There are a lot of obstacles in my way for the month of August. Family picnic this weekend, followed by my birthday, then a three-day girl’s trip to Turning Stone Casino, and then finally a three-day trip for my wedding anniversary. With that in mind am going to keep the same goal as July – a 2% loss. Yes, I would love to see that ideal number (3.5 pounds), but that dangling carrot hasn’t helped me with my goals, so am going to shoot for that in September when it is much more reachable. It is also break time for both the Hogwarts and BLC challenges – so need to motivate myself – not as easy to do.

    I have thought a lot about what my final goal should be. My initial goal was five pounds under the ideal range or 135 pounds. But when I look at myself, I still do not see fit. So am adjusting it to 100-pound loss or January 8, 2025 (my two-year starting date) whichever comes first.

    My Goals for August:


    • 2% loss for the month (about 2.5 pounds)
    • Alternate Cardio and Strength
    • Average 11K Steps per day
    • Continue Physical Therapy Knee exercise – every other day
    • Reduce Calories Gained by Exercise to 25% of earned

    My Before and After for July

    ldfkboqhv5kl.png

    WEEK ONE
    Aug 1: 142.8 😁 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 🧂 I'll never get it - didn't really do anything different - but a nice swish. Nothing exciting happening - end of the month is reflection and budget day so spent a good amount of time at the computer. I added a new goal this month - declutter - thinking one declutter thing a week. We'll see how that goes on my goal to become more minimalistic. My Aunt cancelled the family picnic that was planned for this weekend. My other Aunt is up from Florida and we were all going to get together - but it is supposed to rain all day so she cancelled. I'm sorry to see it because I haven't seen a couple of my cousins in a long time - but one less temptation this month is probably a good thing as August is filled with one to many for me.

    Aug 2: 142.7 😁👣 📝 🥗 🦵🫀 💦 🧂Nice day yesterday, went out on the boat, a little dip in the water. I love our little lake (which only town resisdents can use). I counted the boats that were on the water - 2 boats, 1 jet ski, and a paddle board (plus us). My knee was feeling great yesterday, and I got in 17K steps. This was my daily goal pre knee injury so was so happy to see it. I'm feeling a little sore this morning though, so will curb it a little today.

    Aug 3: 142.4 😁👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 🧂Hot and Humid in Connecticut yesterday. Got our walk in, but was super sticky. We harvested our first pot of potatoes (we picked the little one to see how they were doing) and got seven good potatoes from the pot. Super happy with that. After a terrible garden year, it was nice to see some profits from our work. We talked about next year's garden and all we can seem to grown this year is tomatoes and potatoes (and ok arugula). Even the fruit trees - no apples, no pears - we do have peaches but the squirrels are taking them one by one before they are ripe. No big plans for today - it's also going to be a hot and humid one.

    Aug 4: 142.5 👣 📝 🥗🦵🫀 💦 🧂One of my spare bedrooms has my treadmill in it and a weight machine. We had a twin sized bed in there as well (it was Allyson's room way back when). Finally decided to get rid of the bed. Also cleaned out the bureau - now the bureau is empty (going to move some things from my bedroom to make it so my closet isn't stuffed) and we moved the ab chair into the room. Threw away a big bag of stuff, another big bag going to good will and a couple bags of stuff for Allyson to go through. If she doesn't want it another two bags to goodwill. Now it is truely a workout room. 😊

    Aug 5: 142.9 📝 🥗 🧘‍♀️🧂Rest and stretch day for me. I also didn't get all my water in - hoping the uptick is just that. Tonight is bingo with the Mom and the gang. Celebrating my birthday (and one of the other in Mom's circle of friends). So will have a light eating day today to make up for the cupcakes tonight. Prelogged my day and if I stick to it should still end up with a deficit. Cleaned out the closet in the workout room - another two bags to goodwill.

    Aug 6: 143.2 👣 📝 💪🦵 💦 🧂Totally expected, the cupcake sugar high made me ravenous and when I got home I binged - added another 650 calories of junk to the mix. Back at it today. Good thing is that I won for a change - went bingo twice, and won the $10 door prize.


    WEEK TWO
    👣 📝 🥗 💪🦵🫀 🧘‍♀️💦 🏡🧂

    Aug 7: 142.9 👣 📝 🥗 🫀 💦🧂Good day yesterday. Didn't get the expected amount of rain they were predicting, so got in my AM walk. We also took a drive to the shore, took a little stroll down the boardwalk at the mouth of the Connecticut River.

    Aug 8: 143.4 👣 📝 💪🦵Over my sodium goal yesterday and my calorie limit was 12 calories over - I know not by much but the sodium on top of it and the scale shows every bit of my being off plan. I haven't been sleeping well either which I think contributes to the scale. Today is my actual birthday (64), but not doing much today - will celebrate tomorrow and Saturday when Allyson will be here.

    Aug 9: 144.5 👣 📝 🫀🦵Out last night to celebrate my birthday. I logged everything and it wasn't pretty. But I did have a nice time.

    Aug 10: 143. 📝 🥗 🧘‍♀️ 💦 🏡🧂 Back to where I started at the beginning of the month. Hopefully can make a dent downward before I leave on my trip on Thursday (three day girls outting). Rest day yesterday. Allyson stayed most of the day. She is writing a book and when she finishes a chapter she reads them to me. I got two this weekend. 🥰 Then we went out on the boat for a bit, took a little plunge in the water. Had our dinner at lunchtime, then Allyson headed home. I got a new tv for my workout room - so after she left set that up.

    Hi,
    I'm Cindy. I'm 50, 5'4" and 159.6 as of Aug 1st. Lost 4.6 lbs in July. I didn't quite reach my goal weight for July, but I was close. I have fought with the same 10lbs for the last year.
    So my doctor wants to put me on Wegovy or Zepbound. Between the cost and doing a little research, I don't think its a great solution for me. Looks like it might be a rest of life commitment. No thank you!

    Started at the gym 7/3. Been going 5 days a week. Missed a few days due to life.

    I see my doctor again at the end of August, so I want to loose at least 10 lbs by then to prove I can do it without meds. My ultimate goal is 135 lbs.

    Starting weight: 164.2 (July 1, 2024)
    August starting weight: 159.6
    August goal weight: 155

    Aug 1st - 159.6 :) - Used the rowing machine at the gym for the first time. My friend and I liked it. Why aren't more people using it. No one is ever on it.
    Aug 2nd - 160 :neutral: - Probably the few bites of cookies I had after dinner last night. My daughter wanted Crumble Cookie. How could I say no after the crazy week we have had?
    Aug 3rd - 160 :neutral:
    Aug 4th - 160.4 :( - not paying attention to what I ate yesterday and ate dinner late. Need to work harder this week on what I am putting in my mouth. Last week was a little crazy and I was trying to feed a bunch of young adults. Needed quick, cheap, and easy.
    Aug 5th - 158.8 :) - Actually lost weight over the weekend!
    Aug 6th - 157.4 :) - Not sure how that happened, but I will take it. Only did cardio at the gym yesterday afternoon. I was in a hurry. Had lots to do yesterday evening.
    Aug 7th - 157.6
    Aug 8th - 158 :(
    Aug 9th - 160.2 :( - Very tired this week. Not really sure what is going on except maybe stress. Still going to the gym, but mostly cardio this week and very little weights.
    Aug 10th - 159 :) - Scale finally moving back the other direction.
    Aug 11th - 159.2 :neutral: - I knew it would go up this morning. Yesterday was really busy and only had energy by the end of the day to order pizza. I did have a salad for lunch anticipating being exhausted at the end of the day. Today will be better.

    Met all my goals except water, but I was pretty close to meeting that one. Busy day; work and then cleaning house, doing laundry, etc. Spent a lovely hour video chatting with our daughter, Margo, and youngest granddaughter, Vivian. Vivi is the one who calls me Bamma. 😀 When Margo told her that she was taking to Bamma, Vivi ran to the front door and tried to unlock it, yelling, "Bamma!" Ohhhh that melts a grandmother's heart. 🫠

    I will be DNW tomorrow morning, we're going to stay overnight at the rental. But I'll still log in for the other stuff. I need the accountability, with the 50's party potluck tonight.

    I made that vintage jello recipe, but the jello ring broke while I was un-molding it! 😬😭 Well when life gives you lemons.... So I put the jello and the pineapple/coconut topping all together in a bowl, breaking up the bigger chunks of jello into bite size pieces. It's still colorful and tastes deeeee-licious! I logged my tastes, and I was glad it was in the refrigerator out of sight, because temptation was strong!

    It’s a new week. Hopefully I can get back down. Last week I was losing again then randomly started gaining. I don’t want to accept being fat because I’m unhappy with how I look but darn it’s a struggle. I remember I hit a plateau at 3 kilos but overcame it and got to 7kg lost but been bouncing between 6/7 kilos lost and yet to hit 8kg loss. I feel hopeless- my illness makes it so hard to be healthy. If I had the ability to exercise heaps consistently I think I’d lose weight but the exhaustion is nasty.

    Hello I'm Darlene. Retired, 64-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty), back for another month with this supportive group. I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023, and with this group since April 2023. I have lost 84.5 pounds since the beginning of my journey. This group (along with a couple others I am in) has played a very important part in me reaching my goals. Thank you @jm216 for setting it up again this month! I and working on my last 10ish pounds to goal (may change that when I get there). Happy to be back for another month.

    Starting Weight 228

    My August Goals

    💪 Strength Train 3 days per week
    🫀 Cardio 3 days per week
    🦵 PT Knee Stretch and Strength 3 days per week

    🧂Stay under sodium goal
    ⚖️ Lose 2% of body weight


    My July Reflection for anyone who cares to read:
    July Reflection

    July was a tough month for me. I do not really understand why I lost motivation this month, but probably a combination of not being able to do my normal exercise routine coupled with getting close to my goal and self-sabotage.

    I lost 1.5 pounds this month. My goal was to at least lose 2% of my body weight which would have been about 3 pounds. I got close for a couple of days – but then went over the top and gained some back. The good thing is that I got back at it right away and did not allow the one-day binges to continue into a weekend, or weeklong binge. Down 84.5 pounds since I started this journey.

    Exercise was different for me this month as well. The doctor asked that complete non weight bearing exercises, so no real walking. My strength, cardio, stretch, and steps were all done in the chair most of the month. I did get the green light to start up again at the end of the month and am slowly transitioning from chair to standing.

    Now for the good news – I reached the 1,500-mile marker on my quest to walk 2,024 miles in 2024, logging about 150 miles in July (mostly seated). I found a place on my Garmin app which gives me the total intentional exercise time – so much easier for me to track my second goal which was 2,024 miles of intentional exercise (I count 20 minutes as a mile). I was previously doing it on an excel spreadsheet – which probably wasn’t too accurate. With this new calculation I am at 1,181 miles to date – just where I should be to complete it for the year. I can do it.

    There are a lot of obstacles in my way for the month of August. Family picnic this weekend, followed by my birthday, then a three-day girl’s trip to Turning Stone Casino, and then finally a three-day trip for my wedding anniversary. With that in mind am going to keep the same goal as July – a 2% loss. Yes, I would love to see that ideal number (3.5 pounds), but that dangling carrot hasn’t helped me with my goals, so am going to shoot for that in September when it is much more reachable. It is also break time for both the Hogwarts and BLC challenges – so need to motivate myself – not as easy to do.

    I have thought a lot about what my final goal should be. My initial goal was five pounds under the ideal range or 135 pounds. But when I look at myself, I still do not see fit. So am adjusting it to 100-pound loss or January 8, 2025 (my two-year starting date) whichever comes first.

    My Goals for August:


    • 2% loss for the month (about 2.5 pounds)
    • Alternate Cardio and Strength
    • Average 11K Steps per day
    • Continue Physical Therapy Knee exercise – every other day
    • Reduce Calories Gained by Exercise to 25% of earned

    My Before and After for July

    ldfkboqhv5kl.png

    WEEK ONE
    Aug 1: 142.8 😁 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 🧂 I'll never get it - didn't really do anything different - but a nice swish. Nothing exciting happening - end of the month is reflection and budget day so spent a good amount of time at the computer. I added a new goal this month - declutter - thinking one declutter thing a week. We'll see how that goes on my goal to become more minimalistic. My Aunt cancelled the family picnic that was planned for this weekend. My other Aunt is up from Florida and we were all going to get together - but it is supposed to rain all day so she cancelled. I'm sorry to see it because I haven't seen a couple of my cousins in a long time - but one less temptation this month is probably a good thing as August is filled with one to many for me.

    Aug 2: 142.7 😁👣 📝 🥗 🦵🫀 💦 🧂Nice day yesterday, went out on the boat, a little dip in the water. I love our little lake (which only town resisdents can use). I counted the boats that were on the water - 2 boats, 1 jet ski, and a paddle board (plus us). My knee was feeling great yesterday, and I got in 17K steps. This was my daily goal pre knee injury so was so happy to see it. I'm feeling a little sore this morning though, so will curb it a little today.

    Aug 3: 142.4 😁👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 🧂Hot and Humid in Connecticut yesterday. Got our walk in, but was super sticky. We harvested our first pot of potatoes (we picked the little one to see how they were doing) and got seven good potatoes from the pot. Super happy with that. After a terrible garden year, it was nice to see some profits from our work. We talked about next year's garden and all we can seem to grown this year is tomatoes and potatoes (and ok arugula). Even the fruit trees - no apples, no pears - we do have peaches but the squirrels are taking them one by one before they are ripe. No big plans for today - it's also going to be a hot and humid one.

    Aug 4: 142.5 👣 📝 🥗🦵🫀 💦 🧂One of my spare bedrooms has my treadmill in it and a weight machine. We had a twin sized bed in there as well (it was Allyson's room way back when). Finally decided to get rid of the bed. Also cleaned out the bureau - now the bureau is empty (going to move some things from my bedroom to make it so my closet isn't stuffed) and we moved the ab chair into the room. Threw away a big bag of stuff, another big bag going to good will and a couple bags of stuff for Allyson to go through. If she doesn't want it another two bags to goodwill. Now it is truely a workout room. 😊

    Aug 5: 142.9 📝 🥗 🧘‍♀️🧂Rest and stretch day for me. I also didn't get all my water in - hoping the uptick is just that. Tonight is bingo with the Mom and the gang. Celebrating my birthday (and one of the other in Mom's circle of friends). So will have a light eating day today to make up for the cupcakes tonight. Prelogged my day and if I stick to it should still end up with a deficit. Cleaned out the closet in the workout room - another two bags to goodwill.

    Aug 6: 143.2 👣 📝 💪🦵 💦 🧂Totally expected, the cupcake sugar high made me ravenous and when I got home I binged - added another 650 calories of junk to the mix. Back at it today. Good thing is that I won for a change - went bingo twice, and won the $10 door prize.


    WEEK TWO
    👣 📝 🥗 💪🦵🫀 🧘‍♀️💦 🏡🧂

    Aug 7: 142.9 👣 📝 🥗 🫀 💦🧂Good day yesterday. Didn't get the expected amount of rain they were predicting, so got in my AM walk. We also took a drive to the shore, took a little stroll down the boardwalk at the mouth of the Connecticut River.

    Aug 8: 143.4 👣 📝 💪🦵Over my sodium goal yesterday and my calorie limit was 12 calories over - I know not by much but the sodium on top of it and the scale shows every bit of my being off plan. I haven't been sleeping well either which I think contributes to the scale. Today is my actual birthday (64), but not doing much today - will celebrate tomorrow and Saturday when Allyson will be here.

    Aug 9: 144.5 👣 📝 🫀🦵Out last night to celebrate my birthday. I logged everything and it wasn't pretty. But I did have a nice time.

    Aug 10: 143.5 📝 🥗 🧘‍♀️ 💦 🏡🧂 Back to where I started at the beginning of the month. Hopefully can make a dent downward before I leave on my trip on Thursday (three day girls outting). Rest day yesterday. Allyson stayed most of the day. She is writing a book and when she finishes a chapter she reads them to me. I got two this weekend. 🥰 Then we went out on the boat for a bit, took a little plunge in the water. Had our dinner at lunchtime, then Allyson headed home. I got a new tv for my workout room - so after she left set that up.

    Aug 11: 143 👣 📝 🥗 🫀 💦 🏡🧂Harvested the potted potatoes yesterday - got about 15 pounds in the six pots. Still have a few plants that we sowed in the ground - we are leaving those for now - they don't appear to be finished quite yet. Yup, next year potatoes and tomatoes - that's all that seems to grow well. We have another woodchuck that just consumed the peppers and squash plants - Greg saw him crawl over the gate! It hasn't been a great year for the garden.

    @cattherien I see you signed up for BLC! Hope you love it. The salad looks lovely. How was the event? I bet you had a blast.

    @koeitjiesa So proud of you. Look at you go. Welcome to your next decade. I don't think it's fair for you - each decade is two US decades. We should celebrate every quinquennium! 😁

    The party last night was quite fun. We had a smaller group than expected, about 20 people. But it was still a good time. One of the glals has such a great voice for Patsy Cline music, and she entertained us while we ate dinner. Another of our members, he hosts a karaoke club and he brought his stuff for that. We sang a lot. The best song was "Wild Thing". 😂😂😂 We also had a couple of games: guess the song but the clues were items [example: a figurine of a Cardinal and a figurine of a Labrador retriever = "Bird Dog".] The other game, people brought some of their childhood pictures and we got to guess who the pictures were.

    Speaking of pictures!...

    Allen and I:

    He surprised me a bit and asked me to dance and he sang to me. Dude, you rock!

    The decorations! One of the gals is really good at this!

    There was a table full of peoples' memorabilia...

    I did go over my calories and salt, so tomorrow's weight will be up. But it was so worth it.

    @jo_casey42 weekends are definitely harder! Rooting for you! You've got this. 😀

    @deepwoodslady hooray meals in line! How did your stress test go?

    @ashessquared hey I see that progress! 🎉

    @ozdeelite I know it's really frustrating, but you do what you can, and it just takes time. Keep plugging away at it; keep logging in. Keep working on getting those steps in. You aren't going too far backwards in your progress.

    @koeitjiesa 🎉🎉🎉 woohoo seeing that scale go down into a new decade! So proud of you!🎉🎉🎉 And I agree with Darlene's idea of celebrating every quinquennium.👍

    @ilive2walk so interesting that Allyson is writing a book; I hope she will get an awesome agent and a faithful publisher!

    I'm sorry about the garden. That's frustrating to see it happen. At least there's the one bright spot about taters n' maters!😉

    I did sign up for BLC! I saw that they had a tropical island themed group, and that immediately made the decision for me; it'll be "summer" non-stop in that group, even as the autumn temperatures here begin to drop like leaves. I love it.

    @jm216 I don't know the answer but I do know if I don't log every day, it's SOOOO easy to just honestly forget to do it. Not even an intentional choosing not to do it but honestly not remembering. It's such a hard habit to create and so frustratingly easy to drop. 🫶 But you can do this! Would adding a logging icon to your daily weigh in help you to remember?

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 64 years old and from Michigan USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s


    This Challenge Starting Weight (from July 31st): 188.4
    Goal: 184.4 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    Total Lost/Gained this month: xxxxx



    **********************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME********************



    Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

    08/12-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- My oldest daughter sent me a loaf of fresh zucchini bread made from her garden veg. I didn’t need to weigh to know that I continue to be up. My diet has been bad and we can’t outrun the fork so I just want to bury my head in the sand and stay clueless. I do usually get in a lot more movement over the weekends because my younger DD and DGS are here so hopefully that movement helped. Babysitting him keeps me on my toes!

    Hi, I'm Jill! <3
    I'm 54 and have been married 28 years. I have 2 children-- a son who is 23 and a daughter who is 19. I work full-time selling new construction homes, and I absolutely love it! Yardwork is also one of my favorite things to do...from grass cutting to weed wacking...if I can be outside, I will be playing in the yard.

    This is the month that I’ll get below 208 pounds. I can feel it!

    August 01: 209.8
    August 02: 209.4
    August 03: 210.0 my daughter moves back to college tomorrow… happy for her, but sad for me. I will miss seeing her everyday.
    August 04: 210 moving day is here… 😁😌🙃🥰
    August 05:209.8
    August 06: 209.8
    August 07: 210
    August 08: Back to healthier habits… I’ve prelogged today 📝… and will be “dance vacuuming” before work.
    August 09: 209.7 😎
    August 10: 210.5
    August 11: DNW
    August 12: 211.8… ok… time to get back on track. I’m now ready to log and exercise on a daily basis. Why is it so hard to get back into sync??
    August 13: 211.1 ☀️ on my walk yesterday I saw at least 9 rabbits in my neighbors yards. What a great way to start the day!
