@Zaxa2021 My girls were older but perhaps a modified version would work for yours. When they finished eating they would put their dishes in the sink and run water on them. Perhaps a dishpan with soapy water that yours can put theirs in?2

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

8/24 134.0 After carefully logging what I intended to eat yesterday at a Mongolian grill we ended up at friends’ favorite-Golden Corral because Genghis Grill was “closed for repairs.” 🤦♀️ I had fasted since dinner the night before or this could have been worse!
8/25 133.0 Great Greek today. Will get a skewer and skip the salad. I have more nutritious vegetables at home.
8/26 133.0 My carbs were high yesterday due to 3 RS SF candies - according to the package, 3 have 27 grams of TOTAL carbs and I have my daily limit set to 25! Read before you eat!!!!
8/27 131.5 WOO HOO! I stopped at the endocrinologist’s and got my first Prolia shot on the way to my Art Quilts, etc meeting. I really enjoyed the meeting - or the first time in months. I ate leftover steak and Brussels sprouts for OMAD when I got home at 2 (DH had gone to breakfast with friends so I didn’t make dinner)7 -
Good Morning, Not having a good morning, but I';m here, and someplace to be accountable. I have been
setting up my new journey on 8/1/24 I have changed my eating habits, went to
nutritionists, set up new gym, and getting schedule settled. This would be my final item
to stay on track. Happy to be here. Going to be an interesting week. It is going to be a very long day, as I'm not in the mood for nothing. Heading to the gym to hopefully change that.

The corrected weight made my comments completely null and void but it’s all accurate today. I guess I am actually trying to work my way back down to my starting weight and beyond. I started my day on the exercise bike for 31 minutes. It’s so hot yesterday and today that I think I lost the pound just sweating! Meals were good yesterday. My “approved snacks” were good choices but the quantity is still an issue. I really need to learn when to stop!

Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024! I am looking forward to being a participant this round🙂I'm still working on that strategic plan, but it has more to do with eating and nutrition, as I have been getting my exercise in. I have a lot going on right now so I'm just working on the plan and will put the plan into full effect come September 3rd.So here we go 2024... my motto(s) - All the things I need to read daily!!!

I ate all the things yesterday. I think I restricted too much when I restarted last round which led to a massive binge. I am disappointed but at least I came back here to hold myself accountable. I was hoping to avoid calorie counting but I think I will start it up again.
8/25: 165.8 lbs
Back on track today. I ate on budget and exercised.
8/26: 165.8 lbs
It was a hungry day for me so I ate back all my exercise calories.
8/27: 165.1 lbs
I ate within budget but didn't exercise.

Goals:
⚖️Weekly weigh-in rather than daily (Wednesday)
🔥Daily accountability for macros and active calorie burn
💧Get back to drinking 80-100oz of water
This round (and maybe going forward) daily posts will journal whether I’m meeting my goals. Will only add weight on Wednesday. Comments will be for day before.
8/24 Didn’t drink enough water yesterday, missed active calorie burn, did well with macros until unplanned trip to the movies with popcorn,twizzlers, and ice cream.
8/25 💧🔥 Hit my water and macros yesterday. Thanks to a late night quick workout I made my active calorie burn goal as well.
8/26 💧🔥Had a busy day with brunch with my family, yard work, and getting ready for the week. Hit all my goals.
8/27 💧🔥 Another late night and I managed to avoid snacking. Did a million loads of laundry, too. All in all, a good day.4 -

She said it could be as simple as different brands of machines using different ways of calculating and said when I get my next DEXA I should return to the same location. It’s a large radiology concern that has a location near my home.
@quiltingjaine So nice of you to take the time to ask your doctor about this. If she is correct, that is a little scary as my first had me unusually good for my age, while the second had me poor for my age. Would kind of make a machine worthless in diagnosis. Unfortunately, I have to assume that the non-medical facility one is the one that was wrong (the one with the good report).3 -
Thank you, @quiltingjaine !

I joined this group in Rnd 245 on Dec 18 2023, when I realized I was eating my way through the holidays; I finally got on the scale and was hovering just under 150 lbs. It took about 4 months to reach my goal weight of 125. Sounds great, but I’ve done this before, which is why I’m still here.
It’s not just about losing, it’s about changing the habits of a lifetime that keep me stuck in self-defeating cycles with food.

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 270 (my 200th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Not proud of my past record of continual cycle of good few days followed by days of binge and scrambling to recover, last round was much improved since I’ve realised I must respect my body to continue to live healthily. I am trying to overcome this, fingers crossed I’ll manage it this time. There is just 3 weeks to my holiday, a pound a week would make me very close to where I want to be, so that is my goal for the next 3 weeks. I’ve done it before, I CAN do it again if I remain strong.
Goals for this round;
• First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
• 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, 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.***
Updated 20.08.24 – I met up with DB, first time after his DP passed away at the way too early age of 46. DB lives a long way from us, we see him very infrequently & is very introvert, so not a sharer of info 😞. However, he finally opened up to me, it seems that his DPs bad health leading to heart failure followed by kidney, liver failure & then a massive stroke, was originally caused by heavy drinking. By the time he realised he was abusing his body and went teetotal, the damage was too late to reverse. He was on the list for a heart transplant, but his other organs gave up before one became available.
This has made me think about how I am abusing my body when I have binges with way too much sugar, fat & salt. I know I am a food addict. I'm going to try to think about this when I am tempted to over indulge, I need to start respecting my body more and think about whether I want to be in the best health I can be. My body has served me so well for 66 years, it deserves to be given the best chance to keep serving me well & I've been really lucky that life has not dealt me a raw health deal, so jeopardize that luck.

8/28- 171.2 Happy it’s not higher. Had my BIL’s birthday bbq yesterday. A few too many deviled eggs and two giant ice cream sandwiches sabotaged a good day. It was a late dinner time for me so I arrived overly hungry.
I don’t have much in common with my BIL’s gf yet she jumps into these strange conversations about her day to day life as if I’m invested or involved. It’s exhausting being polite. We don’t spend a significant amount of time together so a casual conversation would be easier. People are weird or maybe I am?
It’s market night again, this is the point in the season that I really feel the burnout. We all do! If farmers are going to argue with each other over stupid little things or get testy with me it’s going to be the end of August! *I am editing to add or if I’m going to be snippy with a farmer!!!!
Five more weeks and I hang up my hat as the market manager!!!7 -

8/24 No scales at the hospital with Dad. Yoga before bed and a little hospital walking is all I got in.
8/25 163.2 My daughter relieved me at the hospital last night, so I was able to get in a neighborhood walk right before dark and then weigh this morning. I’m so proud of her for offering to do that. I know it was hard for her. She’s always been a Pappa’s girl.
8/26 163 My Dad went home to be with his Lord and my Mom yesterday. I was holding one hand and my daughter was holding the other. It was a beautiful ending to a beautiful life. Through the merciful sacrifice of Jesus, we will see him again one day.
8/27 162.3 Got in an early walk before beginning the work of getting Dad’s things sorted and moved out of his Assisted Living. Not quite done, but got a good start on it.
8/28 162.2 Was able to get in a walk when I was waiting to pick Emberly up at school, but it was way too hot, so it only lasted about 15 minutes! Did a 20-min yoga session in the evening to finish up my 20 minutes of Intentional Movement.

8/27 Played 2 1/2 hours of tennis yesterday - lost a tough match but so much fun. Moving so much better than one year ago! Plyo, jump rope, weights, stretching key. Feeling younger than gals 25 years younger!
Wiped out remainder of day till I picked up DGS and took him to soccer. 💦💦💦. Staying #HSF for him. Tennis tonight means sleep will be questionable. Did not log MFP yesterday. Eggs, Wagu, Chuck roast. Portion control. 💪🏻 ✅🚶♀️10k

I'm Julie, 35F, 5'3, SAHM to toddler twins. Trying to get my life together to be the best mom possible to them.
RSW: 157.1
8/24: 157.7. Normal fluctuations. I went on a couple of small walks yesterday, but nothing major. Eating was okay, apart from the larger than necessary snack on Doritos. Dinners are planned for next week, going grocery shopping today. Now, I feel like I have the basics of eating with intention (mostly) and adding a bit of casual walking into my life. So now I need to take it to the next level and be a bit more focused on actual calories.
8/25: 158.1. Yesterday wasn't a great day, food wise, but wasn't horrible. Anxiety was acting up a bit. I tried to keep the eating in check, but then my husband comes home from a fantasy football draft with a bunch of food, proudly declaring he brought me food. So I ate a little, even though I had already had dinner. And now we have a bunch of leftovers that we don't need for me to munch on. Oh boy.
8/26: 157.5. Another meh day yesterday, nothing too major to report on. My husband did offer to put the boys to bed sometimes, which would allowe to get to the gym a little earlier. That would be very helpful, since I have found that I have no energy left after 8. Even pushing it up by an hour would help a lot to get me there.
8/27: 157.7. I feel like I have found my maintenance calories, as I'm just bouncing around the same poundish range. Now I just need to cut them back a little. I've noticed that I tend to have a few extra bites while feeding my kids- a handful of crackers with them, a few bites of their toast they don't finish, steal a couple spoonfuls of Mac and cheese because I like it, etc. I think that's a simple enough way to cut out a few calories to start. Probably not enough for real changes, but enough I feel like I need to, so that's going to be my next step I'm going to focus on.
8/28: 156.5. Yesterday was a good day, food wise.. I really focused on intentional eating. I tracked my food, which I've been having a hard time doing lately. I even threw away a highish calorie drink that I didn't like, instead of finishing it anyway, when I decided it wasn't worth the calories.

8/24 175.4 You know the math formula where one can compute their calorie deficit to estimate what the weight loss will be? I did mine and it came out that over the last 9 days I should have lost 2.86. I lost .6. So either I am not logging my food correctly, I don't think so but maybe or there other strange and bewildering forces at work here. I guess 2+2 is not four. It has taken me about eight months to lose 10 lbs. I will choose to be grateful. I will take a closer look at the calories I am consuming. But most importantly I will accept that losing weight is a long.......slow.......process. Yesterday I was working on a project. I became aware that my body was thinner, especially in my legs where I carry my weight. It was a very good feeling.

8/26 - 137.4. Glad I remembered to weigh today! This is my last week of freedom before I re-enter corporate America next week. Had a leisurely ebike ride to take my youngest to daycare to start the day. I think my only other exercise today will be a dog walk. My more important task is getting meals planned and shopped for for the week. I had a dinner planned last week that I didn’t cook, so now I’m thinking I’ll cook that for my own lunches this week. Thanks for having me back and I’ll stick around this time!
8/27 - 137.2. Yesterday I ended up taking the dogs on a nearly 4 mile hike instead of our normal 30 minute walk, so that was good for all of us. Today I’ll lift. I’m doing the StrongLifts 5x5 program at the gym. My appetite has been down as I get over this awful daycare cold my son brought to me. That’s actually part of the reason I decided to restart. Seemed like a good opportunity to reset my habits, which usually include plenty of snacks and near-daily beer drinking. I’ve been interested in neither since Friday. That plus we’re going to Puerto Rico in December and I want to be confident in my swimsuit. Realized this is about the latest I could start if I want to be 125ish by then.
8/28 - 137.6. Not what I wanted or expected during my first week back, but my body could be holding on to some water. I’ve been pretty good about meeting activity and calorie goals. I just started heavy-ish lifting again, and I’m still getting over this cold, both of which I think can lead to some water retention in my experience. So I’ll stay the course! And increase my water intake. Today I e-biked my kid to school again which isn’t a big burner but at least gets me outside. My only other activity will be walking the dogs again. It’s in the 90s again today so I’d better hop to it! Happy hump day, all!6 -

End-of-2024 Goal—weight 170.
Day. Weight/Trend.—Prev day calories. Comments.
8/24 - 197.2/197.4.—1173.
I’ve decided to post my trend weight as well as daily, since it’s more accurate in the grand scheme. I’m also posting my previous day’s calories to up the accountability, and I’m aiming for anywhere from 1100 to 1400 most days. We’ll see.
On a different topic…after years of having strong but unpolished nails, I got talked into a mani/pedi with a friend. I got gel polish on my fingernails, and went back twice more, so basically about two months of gel polish with 3 removals. The third time I wanted to see if there was any damage to my nails, so just had the gel removed and regular clear polish put on. It had a rough texture, and two nails broke/peeled, one into the quick, so I removed the polish at home and was shocked. Every single nail was peeling and/or tearing. So I increased my intake of collagen from half to full recommended dose to try to help my nails recover. A couple days later I started to feel bloated, like I had a cannonball in my gut. The only thing I could think of was the collagen, so I stopped it. I feel a bit better, but still not quite right digestively. Has anyone else had issues with collagen? I’ll try the half dose again once I feel normal again, but just curious. (Don’t get me started on warnings that should be required with nail treatments!)
8/25 - 199/197.8 — 1723
I went way overboard yesterday. Last night, really. I added about 600 calories snacking late. I’m don’t know whether I’m eating because I’m depressed, or depressed because I’m eating, but either way, I’m depressed and eating too much. I’m going to try to get a handle on some of this with some activity—clearing out my hobby closet specifically today, getting rid of things I no longer use. First I’m going to do some garden work before it gets too hot. Maybe cleaning up a few things will help my attitude.
8/26 - 196.8/197.5 — 1247
I did better yesterday. No nighttime snack.
@quiltingjaine I can’t imagine weekly manis, either! I did them at 2.5-3 week intervals. I mis-typed when I said a month—meant two months-ish. 😊
8/27 - 197.4/197.5 — 1235
I’ll never understand how weight can increase after two days of low calories, but there we are. Like many of you, we’re under a heat warning today, so I’m going to go walk around one of the big box stores for half an hour or so.
8/28 - 197.8/197.6 —1345
This is so frustrating. The past 4 out of 5 days my calories have been below 1400, and the other day I was below supposed maintenance. According to MFP and Sailrabbit, I should lose half a pound per week at ~1450 calories, and I have in the past. I’m on the edge of giving up entirely.

08/27 -191.0- (Trend weight 190.8) I don’t know how I typed in my weight wrong yesterday but I did so its corrected now. The corrected weight made my comments completely null and void but it’s all accurate today. I guess I am actually trying to work my way back down to my starting weight and beyond. I started my day on the exercise bike for 31 minutes. It’s so hot yesterday and today that I think I lost the pound just sweating! Meals were good yesterday. My “approved snacks” were good choices but the quantity is still an issue. I really need to learn when to stop!
08/28 -189.8- (Trend weight 190.7 )It’s nice to see a drop but felt a little discouraged after going to trendweight.com to find my trend this morning. This was my message:You have been tracking your weight for 3.3 years.
You have 43.7 lbs to lose to reach your goal weight.
You will reach your goal around October 31, 2038.

8/28 - 148.1 - I'm a little shocked by this. I did end up splurging and having a small extra (untracked) bite of nutella yesterday. And by small, I mean a big ol' spoonful. I was craving a sweet treat something horrible. I'm also incredibly sore in my quads today. I didn't think I'd be able to stand, nonetheless walk, after I struggled to roll over in bed due to the soreness. Wowza. Glad I took it easy and went lighter/less reps. Continued that trend this morning with chest. Today is a day I'm foregoing logging breakfast. I enjoyed without tracking and going forward I'll stay mindful of goals. I have mentally roughly estimated protein and fiber (my primary focuses) so I can ensure I get as close to my macro goal as possible for those two. Feeling okay with this since the goal is to eat intuitively going forward anyway and this is Coach's way of pushing me in that direction. She thinks I'm doing really well and I'm ready for this step so I'm going to trust her judgement!

8/27 - Apparently I didn't hit "post reply" after typing my post yesterday. Oops. I'm back to routine this week with regularly scheduled morning workouts. BF was been released to resume the gym with very large restrictions (5lbs max, no shoulder-focused moves). It's been nice having him get up with me, especially after I took a week to sleep in and recover from being sick. Coach lowered my macros very very slightly, a whole 5g carbs and 5g fat. We went a bit too low previously so we're inching very slowly back down since she knows I have vacation in 5 weeks and I'm eager to see progress before we go. Not much else to report on other than I'm taking things easy as I get back into my normal routine and allow my body to finish recovery (I still have some sinus drainage and I'm still a a bit weak/fatigued). Feels good to be back though! Let's see if I can properly hit "post reply" today haha!!
