09/09 -191.0- (Trend weight-190.9-) I normally fluctuate both up and down by about a pound-and-a-half each time there is a change so this is par for the course when I haven’t had the best day. I was served up a lot of stress and depression yesterday and food was my chaser. Ridiculous! I felt like an out of control child. Today is my travel day. I will be home and post tomorrow evening/night. I expect another gain but will work on it the rest of the week. I always say that sometimes I “give in” but I never “give up”. I’m a bit like the Unsinkable Molly Brown. Looking on the bright side, I am still down from start weight in this moment.! Wishing you all a great week filled with lots of SVs and NSVs.
09/10 -DNW- (Trend weight-DNW-) Home late from trip. No scale at hotel this morning. I will likely not weigh in tomorrow to give myself a buffer from the trip, but I will check in.

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 271 (my 201st). 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, still not doing very well, 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.

9/7 DNW - we are away for the weekend in our caravan at Stourport-on-Severn, when we got here we discovered it is carnival week. 10.6 miles walked yesterday. Trying to get my mojo back, think it's working -slowly!! Or is it that I am with DH who is so strict in what he eats? 🤞 It's the former!!
9/8 DNW - 13 miles walked, good day food wise.
9/9 141 – (trend 141.6) Good to see a reduction in both numbers. 6.2 miles walked. Back home.
9/10 139.6 – (trend 141.4) 6.93 miles walked yesterday. Feeling better with myself, but mustn’t sit back and get complacent.

9/11- 171.0 Eating has been good and exercise has been fantastic. I’m just on the high end of the monthly cycle.
Tonight is paella at the market. My goal is to eat some of DH but not get my own order.
It will be a busy day while I attempt to do it all!!
I’m appreciating my quiet early morning focusing on myself. This morning check in really helps me set my eating intentions for the day. I also know that I’m not going to get overwhelmed by the magnitude of tasks that must be accomplished and skip my workout.
I will make space for my physical and mental health so that I can accomplish all of these tasks or let go of the ones that are self imposed on a ridiculous quest for perfection.
It’s going to be a beautiful day and I am going to crush it!!!6 -
@pezhed: Hi! Fortunately I am very far away from the Gulf Coast, near NYC. But @Chapter_3 is right in the thick of it, so I'm passing your good wishes to her!3

@SheilaBoneham: your work makes me think of my mom, who did intricate, beautifully made sweaters like you- so impressive! I know what that takes. She tried to teach me but I didn't have the patience nor the skill for anything so complex. The person who gets to wear it is very lucky!3

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.

9/11: this round has been about getting back to my regular routine, and it's starting to happen. Work is still crazy, but I'm getting more organized, and I'm back to my exercise routine.
Only thing now: on vacation, I was getting up 7ish and staying up to 11; I really liked that. Now I'm back to falling asleep on the couch by 9 and waking up at 5, when it's still dark. I hate it- I'm way too tired after dinner to for anything fun, and I don't need to be up this early anymore. My goal this fall is to adjust my sleep cycle slightly later, which I think will be better for me.5 -
@judefit1 and @Chapter_3 i just saw a post on FB from Denis Phillips, a really great Tampa weather guy who doesn’t overreact to hurricanes but instead offers calm and pertinent advice on what to do. I copied this for you. I don’t know where you are exactly in the path of Francine, but you may find some of this helpful.
For our family and friends in Louisiana, this is a list that many people are finding helpful.
1. Charge any device that provides light. Laptops, tablets, cameras, video cameras, and old phones. Old cell phones can still used for dialing 911. Charge external battery backups. ( Glow sticks also provide light for a few hours. Stand them upright in a glass or jar to make a lantern.)
2. Wash all trash cans, big and small, and fill them with water for flushing toilets. Line outdoor trash cans with trash bags, fill them with water, and store them in the garage. Add bleach to sterilize.
3. Fill every tub and sink with water. Cover sinks with Saran Wrap to keep it from collecting dust. Fill the washing machine and leave the lid up to store water.
4. Fill old empty water bottles and other containers with water and keep them near sinks for washing hands.
5. Fill every Tupperware with water and store in the freezer. These will help keep food cold longer and serve as a backup water supply.
6. Fill drinking cups with water and cover with Saran Wrap. Store as many as possible in the fridge. The rest you can store on the counter and use first before any water bottles are opened. Ice is impossible to find after the storm.
7. Reserve fridge space for storing tap water and keep the sealed water bottles on the counter.
8. Cook any meats in advance and other perishable foods. You can freeze cooked food. Hard boil eggs for snacks for first day without power.
9. Be well hydrated before the storm hits and avoid salty foods that make you dehydrated.
10. Wash all dirty clothes and bed sheets. Anything dirty will smell without the A/C, you may need the items, and with no A/C, you'll be sweating a lot. You're going to want clean sheets.
11. Toss out any expired food, clean cat litter boxes, and empty all trash cans in the house, including bathrooms. Remove anything that will cause an odor when the A/C is off. If you don't have a trash day pickup before the storm, find a dumpster.
12. Bring in any yard decor, secure anything that will fly around, secure gates, bring in hoses, potted plants, etc. Bring in patio furniture and grills.
13. Clean your environment so you have clear, easy escape routes. Even if that means temporarily moving furniture to one area.
14. Scrub all bathrooms so you are starting with a clean odor-free environment. Store water-filled trash cans next to each toilet for flushing.
15. Place everything you own that is important and necessary in a backpack or small file box that is easy to grab. Include your wallet with ID, phone, hand sanitizer, snacks, etc. Get plastic sleeves for important documents.
16. Make sure you have cash on hand.
17. Stock up on pet food and fill up bowls of water for pets.
18. Refill any medications. Most insurance companies allow for 2 emergency refills per year.
19. Fill your propane tanks. You can heat soup cans, boil water, make coffee, and other stuff besides just grilling meat. Get an extra, if possible.
20. Drop your A/C in advance and lower temperatures in your fridges.
21. Gather all candles, flashlights, lighters, matches, batteries, and other items and keep them accessible.
22. Clean all counters in advance. Start with a clean surface. Buy Clorox Wipes for cleaning when there is no power. Mop your floors and vacuum. If power is out for 10 days, you'll have to live in the mess you started with.
23. Pick your emergency safe place such as a closet under the stairs. Store the items you'll need in that location for the brunt of the storm. Make a hand fan for when the power is out.
24. Shower just before the storm is scheduled to hit.
25. Keep baby wipes next to each toilet. Don't flush them. It's not the time to risk clogging your toilet!
26. Run your dishwasher, don't risk having dirty smelly dishes and you need every container for water! Remember you'll need clean water for brushing your teeth, washing yourself, and cleaning your hands.
27. Put a small suitcase in your car in case you decide to evacuate. Also, put at least one jug of water in your car. It will still be there if you don't evacuate! Remember to pack for pets as well.
28. Check on all family members, set up emergency backup plans, and check on elderly neighbors.
29. Remember, pets are family too. Take them with you!
30. Before the storm, unplug all electronics. There will be power surges during and after the storm.
31. Gas up your car and have a spare gas container for your generator or your car when you run out.
32 . Use plastic cups and paper plates. 👍 You need water to wash dishes....👎
33 . Also if you run out of water tap your hot water heater it can have up to 30 gallons stored in there.
34 . Put water in balloons and store it in the freezer.
35 . If it's yellow let it mellow, if it's brown Flush it down!💩
If you can, take a video of your house and contents....walk room to room--open cabinets/drawers and closets. This will help if you need to make a claim later. It will show proof of items and help you list all the items (help your memory, so you don't forget anything)...I highly recommend it!!!
I also heard you should freeze a cup of water, and place a coin on top after it is frozen...keep this in your freezer to help you gauge the temperature if the power goes out. If the coin stays on top, the food is staying frozen. If the coin falls into the water, the freezer thawed out and most food will likely need to be thrown away. This is super helpful is you have to leave and come back, as it may appear everything is still frozen, but if the coin is in the cup--you will know!!
Rule #7 And for those asking, that means "Don't freak out unless I'm freaking out..we're fine". Whatever comes our way, we've got this as long as we stay informed and prepared.
Sorry, everyone else. I just really
want them to have this info.3 -
Hi everyone, not sure how the confusion started, but I live near NYC! Thanks for posting the rules though, we've had our share of hurricanes where I am (coastal NJ)
@Chapter_3 is near Baton Rouge and most vulnerable, so good wishes to her...4 -

& On my way to
📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻Sept Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Sept:
1. P:E: Proteing greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and kcals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan through July. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while 🏋🏼♀️🤸🏼♀️ 🎾. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. 🙏📝📚🧐 - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of “leveling up” because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. I’ve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. 🏋🏼♀️this is my biggest challenge. I still don’t like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but it’s a daily struggle. Living “fake it till I make it”… Faking my “identity”. My hope is that some 🏋️♀️version eventually becomes a healthy habit. I’m working on a minimum of 10-minute “🏋🏼♀️snacks” 2-3x per day, 5x per week. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that 🏋🏼♀️is the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus “stretch snacks”… I want to up this game… I will start to add “sprints” (which is NOW only fast jogging… 😂) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2” vertical jump) 😂. I read to “sprint” is vital as we age…..
5. I have much “work” to do with family relationships. Won’t detail here, but it’s a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I won’t be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. I’m usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I can’t stay up later…. I love getting up early. I’m good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-being…
7. Have fun… lighten up … & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!
👇🏻Review since my 1st R231 7/31/23 NSVs/Journey Reflections
******************
1. ✅HSF: Avg. close to 9k steps per day for 11+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - #HSF 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅#HSF: 🙆♀️ Daily stretch greatly improving my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅ #HSF 📝 🙏 everyday
4. ✅#HSF: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
5. ✅#HSF : Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
6. ✅#HSF : zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 115-130g Protein

OK I’m confused, but I will record today as my first day of this round and I’m not sure when it ends but I will go with the flow.
Will reflect today and set R271 action plan.(I thought today was the last day R270 so I’ll make sure I’m all in by tomorrow!)
My goals for this 10-day round are to return to routine, MFP tracking, #HSF mindset, sleep well, 1.5:1 P:E ratio, 🏋️♀️📚🚶♀️10k. R270 was a blur…. I want R271 to have focus/meaning. We all know when we have a great, satisfying round and I want that again… My last two rounds have been drifters! Let’s do this! 💪🏻
9/4 ⚖️130.0
✅🚶♀️🏋️♀️💦📚💤 P:E 1.8:1 Protein= 127g
Back on routine yesterday! ⚖️Uptick from long weekend vanished. Started the day with 🚶♀️5 mile &🏋️♀️. 💦& MFP tracking. I had somewhat of an internal battle of wanting to take another day off but made up my mind early to make yesterday a solid jumpstart. Affirmations and keeping my mind CLEAN with positive thoughts made the difference. Today: I have early 🎾 and will track all measures. MFP routine tracking provides the structure I need to stay focused.
9/5⚖️ 130.2
✅🚶♀️7k🏋️♀️10 min 💦📚💤 7, P:E 1.2:1 Protein= 126g
Did not hit 🚶♀️10k…. 🎾1 1/2 hrs Opted to watch USOpen all afternoon/night. Could’ve 🏋️♀️more…. Rain next two days (all day). Focus: 💦🏋️♀️📚 and catch-up around the house.
9/6 ⚖️130.8
✅🚶♀️13k🏋️♀️22 min 📚💤 7, P:E .7-1 Protein= 139g
Missed my protein ratio goal for the first time in months… My husband prepared some beautiful organic jasmine rice and I enjoyed a bowl. Calories in check, but macros off… Ate dinner several hrs later than usual yesterday… therefore off routine 😔. Started my day squeezing in 5 mile walk just before the rain started followed by🏋️♀️. Finished house work then took it easy remainder of day watching the U.S. Open.
I definitely ate “more” than usual yesterday, and did not drink enough 💦… will be more mindful/intentional today.
Today: I’ll find a “dry” window to walk… And will CHOOSE a healthy mindset. When motivation wains, choose self-discipline.
9/7 ⚖️132.0
✅🚶♀️7k🏋️♀️30min 💤 8, P:E 1.2:1 Protein= 119g
I am obsessing over the scale. I know it’s just information but the information I’m receiving is a tad-bit frustrating.
I started thinking about my “most recent” 15lb+ gain. I realized I gained those 15lbs over 18 months eating what one would consider not to be “unhealthy or over the top”. I also played a LOT of tennis during that time… Portion control has always been my issue, not sweets or binging… just really loving good food. If I wasn’t playing tennis and burning 500 cal from daily exercise, maybe I would’ve gained 25lbs!!! By simply eating the standard American diet… (SAD).
For women, our body absolutely changes as we age. Everyone’s body is different so I won’t say it’s pre-menopausal or post or anywhere between or after because it’s different for everyone…
My body definitely changed around age 62. I kept eating, and doing the same as always, but the weight gain happened.
I wish I had learned that when you reach that point when your body makes that huge metabolic shift, you must eat less and lift weights and move more to simply maintain… I wish someone had TOLD me that cardio is secondary to 🏋️♀️….
What is my point to this ramble? I personally believe that if you are not losing weight right now, you are simply eating too many calories… I believe all the charts grossly overstate minimum calorie requirements.
The past few months I’ve been averaging 1300 - 1400 cal per day, which seems like I should be maintaining or loosing…. But in reality, I’ve gained 2 to 3 pounds. What does this tell me? I don’t know yet… I feel good, my clothes look great…. But the scale bothers the *kitten* out of me.
A lifetime of wanting to weigh 130lbs consistently …. So why does TWO freaking pounds bothering me so much?
So that is my ramble… It just means that I’m not to that place of TRUE #HSF because I become deflated when the scale fluctuates… If I was truly #HSF the scale would be neutral… just a fact.
It also means that I have some form of mental deformity when TWO FREAKING POUNDS blow my mind.
No hugs needed… It is what it is… That lifetime struggle/challenge with the scale STILL exists. The bogeyman is still in the closet! I will definitely fake it till I make it.
Today: 🏋️♀️🚶♀️📚💦 ENJOY!
Onward!
PS I truly don’t want to offend anyone because I know many are struggling with significant health issues & weight loss goals…. My point in sharing is that there’s no magic treasure when you “reach your goal” … For me, TODAY, I must make minute by minute decisions… Some days are better than others… Some weeks are better than others… and so TODAY will be another DECISION /will power day. Same as you.
9/8 ⚖️131.0
✅🚶♀️9k🏋️♀️15min 💤 8, 💦 P:E 1.5:1 Protein= 90g (low)
🎾 yesterday & today. I’ve been sleeping well for a few weeks now which really helps with energy, attitude and discipline. I’m simply a happier gal with a great nights sleep! Continue to practice mindfulness and gratefulness. Embrace this day with a #HSF identity, gladness and opportunity. Walk the walk.
9/9 ⚖️ 132.0
✅🚶♀️10k🏋️♀️20min 💤 8hrs, 💦, P:E 1.1:1 Protein = 110g
Started my day super positive. Beautiful morning - did my functional training 🏋️♀️ & stretching outside. So nice… two-hr tennis match…. Perfect nutrition. 10k 🚶♀️Positive attitude /mindset. Grateful.
Settling into 1-2lb daily fluctuations as a new norm?
9/10 132.8 pushing 133! Weighed @ 3am so not sure about accuracy….
✅🚶♀️8k🏋️♀️💤 6hrs, 💦, P:E 1.1:1 Protein = 110g
Past few days eating about 20g less protein, a few more complex carbs (10-20g) and more fat (20-30g) hence P:E ratio has declined…. but still 1:1. Will shift to more lean protein and less fat. My CICO still on target…. so a little perplexed…. Perhaps some “system” issues? Calories still avg 1400ish… (burning 800ish) so the math just isn’t “mathing”. 🧐. Also, past two nights sleep isn’t optimal. Watched a few inspirational/insightful videos yesterday - feeling more “present”.
NSV: No panic here, just a little more macro tweaking ahead. I sincerely enjoy figuring out my one & only 65yr-young self.
DGS (10) starting to keep a journal of his workouts. He wants to win his after-soccer practice race! (A loop around the field). I love that he is paying attention to his body/skills and realizing with a little hard work and discipline he can improve his physicality!
🚶♀️🏋️♀️planned for this morning. Final prep for Hurricane Francine today. Onward!

@UTMom81
Thank you for your post! I’ve experienced about 20 hurricanes including the worst of the worst: Betsy, Camille, Katrina and Ida. Francine will be small…. No matter the strength of a hurricane, the threat is always a possible tornado and/or a random tree falling. Yard clean-up too! We never take the storms for granted- we prepare the same for every storm. Only evacuated for Katrina… The other challenge is power always goes out.(Katrina, no power for 3 weeks…. Only one week for Ida.)
“Hurricane parties” are a pretty big deal too. Lots of them last night and more today. People can be CRAZY! & I was definitely crazy in my younger years….
Everything in our area is closed both today and tomorrow…. Retail, schools, offices, services …. Shut down completely. When the hurricane 🌀 is minor like this one - it gives folks an excuse to throw a big party - especially in Louisiana!
Laissez les bons temps rouler!!

9/3 163.8 I think this uptick was leftover carb damage from the weekend. Food was right on plan yesterday, and I walked 3.5 miles yesterday morning. Really need to be drinking more water, but that is something I have always struggled with. I'm open to suggestions. Intentional Exercise: 27 min walking
9/4 163.8 So, the worst thing about having a high-carb few days is that the cravings return. Struggling a little to get back on track. Intentional Exercise: 27 min walking
9/5 163.6 Neighborhood walking but my watch had died.
9/6 163.6 Drove to the mountains today, planted flowers and pressure washed the deck, but no formal exercise.
9/7 No scales. 50 minutes of walking
9/8 No scales. 60 minutes of walking
9/9 163.2 Not bad after a weekend camping. I was by myself this weekend, so I got to pick what I wanted to eat and did really well.
9/10 162.6 Finally down a little this round! I was beginning to wonder. Ran a lot of errands yesterday, so steps were good, but didn’t do any formal exercise. I was tired from all the work and walking at the campground so I gave myself a rest day. Bought the dress I’ll wear for my parents’ Celebration of Life (we’re doing both together since Mom died during Covid and we couldn’t have a service), and Mom would be SO proud of how I look in it! I would never have even tried it on before losing the weight because it is form fitting, but so classy! I saw it, with it's leather-look wide bands down both sides, pulled it out off the rack a little and thought, "Well, I just wonder???" And guess what? It FIT!!!
9/11 162.8 Woke up at 3:30 and never went back to sleep. Got up and weighed at 4:45. Expected a drop after a really good day yesterday, but, nope! Will be in Florida on different scales tomorrow.

Round 271
Sept 3 – 12, 2024
62 year old female, 5’5”. 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 – 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 – 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 “kids”, 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 “all in or not” 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 mother’s 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
9/3 – 135.4 Gotta just trust the process. Eating spot on, and fully tracking. Yesterday, I did do intentional activity. Not athletically impressive, but it was intentional, and that is a process win. Had to get something at Walgreens, in town, and instead of adding it to my car loop later in the day, I walked and walked a slightly longer route home. Then later in the day I convinced DH to go walk the beach with me. We are literally right on the beach, and I/we had not been on it once this year except to walk the cats. Anyhow, Intentional #1 got me 25 min at an OK pace, and intentional #2 got me over 30 min at a snails pace.
9/4 – 134.2 Finally a little movement in the scale. If I can keep this until the end of the round, I will be content.
9/5 – 134.4 Actually grateful. Had had a very busy, but otherwise great day. Planned ahead, pre-track, packed lunch back, etc, etc. OK, intentional exercise is still a work in progress. Then, in the evening, I went on a bender. Probably 1500 calories worth. Charging phone and watch now, so I can get out and do some exercise today!
9/6 – 134.8 Numbers were met
9/7 – 134.8 scale is just stuck, but my digestive system has not been the same lately since pushing foods with calcium and my fiber. Being patient while I find the balance.
9/8 – 135.0 totally deserved, that said, I did very intentional exercise. Walked 5 miles to “correct” the overeating I had done at noontime. Was in a good place, but then did another binge late in the evening.
9/9 – DNW All this eating of new food ingredients is binding me up, and just did not feel like looking that the scale
9/10 – 136.4 this is why I avoided it yesterday. This number is not deserved. Hoping to see things sort out sooner than later.
9/11 – 135.8 Just annoying as heck. I still think it relates to the shift in types of foods selected. Calories are at a logical number, BUT then again that “intentional” exercise is just not happening with regularity. Will keep working on it.
9/12 –
Intentional exercise
9/2 – 25 min to walgreens @ 25 min 3.6 mph, 37 min beach walk w/ DH @ 2 mph
9/3 - none

9/8 – none – does walking around hunched over with a one year count?
9/9 - none
9/10 - none
9/11 -

I joked the other day by asking if walking hunched over, supporting a one year old who is determined to walk but is not stable on rough ground, counted as exercise. After my back started to ache, I came up with an idea and took off my fleece. Here was my solution.
Apparently DD thought it was funny enough that she took a picture.8 -
SW Rnd 271: 136.6
GW Rnd 271: 135.6
9/3 - DNW. Late today but I wanted to make sure I checked in! I kind of forgot to weigh but also I really didn’t want to know the impact of our party on my weight. I had more beer than I’d had in a while! This morning I got up at 4:30 am EDT and flew to California for my first day of work. So far I’ve only had airplane snacks to eat, but I’m going to a taqueria for dinner and am not going to hold back very much. Hopefully not eating much through the day will help offset the impact there. I’m meeting a friend pretty late so I’ll go check out the hotel gym for a bit! I’m not going to weigh until the 8th since I couldn’t find my travel scale.
9/4 - DNW. I typed yesterday’s comment into a note and didn’t post, so here I am today with both. I failed to go to the hotel gym because of a happy hour invitation. Felt like I should go get to know some colleagues. Wasn’t too productive in that regard and I didn’t really need the beer I had for social lubrication. I was majorly retaining water after my travel day. I peed 3 times overnight! Sorry if TMI. I just usually don’t have to get up very much, so it was bizarre! Going for a jog before work. Food might be a little challenging but I’m going to try to be aware of what I put in my pie hole!
9/5- DNW
9/6 - DNW. Whoops, I had my dates wrong. Got it sorted now I think. Yesterday wasn’t a great day food- or activity-wise for me. Today should be better. It will be really quiet in the office, and there won’t be the free lunch or happy hour I had yesterday. I’m thinking of leaving a little early and going to explore San Francisco a little bit, but that is feeling really ambitious at the moment. This morning I went to the hotel gym and did a glutes and legs and a chest and back workout on my Peloton app. Felt hard but good! Yay Friday!
9/7 - DNW. I’m probably not the only one but I know I posted about the Renpho scale a couple years ago haha! I took it on a couple business trips and it worked well for me. It’s the one I couldn’t find this time. I’m flying home from San Francisco today. My 8am flight got delayed due to mechanical but I was lucky enough to have been at the airport super early so I was able to catch the 6:30 flight! Now I have a longer layover than planned but I’ll get home at the same time as originally scheduled. Really cannot wait to sleep snuggled up with at least one of my little guys! Maybe I’ll sleep with both of them. Not excited to see what the scale will say tomorrow. I had a burrito as big as my head for dinner last night and just used my airline meal voucher on chick-fil-a. Probably will be well above start weight 😬 I’ll get back to working toward my goals soon. Just posting here is valuable to keeping my goals front-of-mind.
9/8 - 136.0!! Pleasantly surprised at this after 5 days of restaurant food and travel. I did try to be mindful about how much I was eating but some of the food was too amazing to hold myself back. Hoping to stay on this trajectory so I can meet my round goal.
9/9 - 136.2. Yesterday didn't turn out great - I didn't make very good choices at meal times, so I ended up being hungry almost constantly. Ugh! I had a relatively minor snack attack right around 8. Hoping that the scale doesn't go up tomorrow as a result, but it does seem that there is usually a one-day delay in my body's response to making bad choices. Today is my first day working from home for my new job, and I haven't wrapped my head around the company's culture just yet as far as popping offline to work out or whatever goes. Today may not be active for me, as a result. I had to take the kids to the dentist this morning which already affected my work hours, and I still have to figure out dinner and run to the store for a few things. Too much to do!
9/10 - 134.6! That was a nice whoosh! Probably mostly related to where I am in my cycle and coming off the travel meals. I squeezed in an afternoon jog yesterday. I’m going to lift weights today. I’m taking my kindergartener to a running club that starts at 8 so we’ll get an early start on the day. I hope he ends up enjoying it! No pressure either way but it seemed like a good opportunity for him to try out a non-competitive sport. Have a great day everyone!
9/11 - 134.2. Surprised to see any loss after book club last night. I failed to track (it's so hard to track all those little bites of unknown foods!) but I probably ate close-ish to maintenance between my daily calories and the few I "earned" from my dog walk. DH took the dogs out this morning so I may try to pop out for a bike ride at some point.

09/10 -DNW- (Trend weight-DNW-) Home late from trip. No scale at hotel this morning. I will likely not weigh in tomorrow to give myself a buffer from the trip, but I will check in.
09/11 -DNW- (Trend weight-DNW-) I am definitely bloated from the trip and I can physically see the built up fluid in my legs/ankles and tummy area. Now that I’m home I will be able to take my prescribed water pill and rid myself of the excess. That will feel so much better. It will also help with my breathing. Hopefully I can weigh tomorrow for the end of the challenge tally. Mammogram and oncology went well. Cancer side is still clear. “Scare side” is showing that the new scattered calicifications are stable and so far appear benign. No more 6 month checks. I get to wait the full year this time so that is a good sign for sure! They did 3-D testing on me for the first time ever due to new regulations regarding dense tissue.
09/12 -xxxxx- (Trend weight-xxxxx-)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day. Weight/Trend. Comments.
9/04 - 197.4/197.4
Crazy weekend, but I’m back on track today.
9/05 - 198/197.7
Or not. 😡🥲😳 This bump is from previous days, but still… Well, I can’t change the past, so I’d better focus on right now.
9/06 - 197.6/197.7
Food was fine yesterday. I just feel defeated but fat. And I know I should stop whining, and I’ll try. Tomorrow. 🙂
9/07 - 198.8/198.1
What? Has to be water, although I don’t know why that would be. My calories yesterday were 1345, so that’s not it. Just bizarre.
9/08 - 199/198.8
I gave in to an emotional snackfest yesterday—lots of salt—and dinner was heavier and saltier than usual, so I’m sad about the uptick, but not devastated. That said, I talked to DH about our incompatible food tolerances (meaning he can eat anything and stay thin and I balloon if I look at it) and told him I just can’t continue this way. Conversation isn’t finished, but basically I think we need to make our own meals for a while. He can happily eat all the pasta and butter he wants and I can NOT eat his food. We eat most of our meals together on his very consistent schedule, and that clearly isn’t working for me. Anyway, I’m going to make a big pot of veggie soup today and freeze a bunch so I can pull out and nuke it when I want. I’m also trying again to get back to my long walks, as I think my gut has settled down a bit. I have to stop feeling defeated.
9/09 - 199.2/198.7
I did better yesterday, but still up from the day before. I considered, first, not weighing, then lying, but what would be the point of that? Anyway, I’m starting my good breakfast/no lunch experiment today for a while to see if it makes a difference. In the meantime, I’m getting ready for sweater weather—finished knitting this one last week and thought I’d share. I’m turning knitting into a reward—I have to walk at least half an hour or I’m not allowed to knit.
9/10 - 198.6/198.8
I got my flu and Covid shots this morning—nice to feel updated. Day two of my good breakfast/no lunch experiment. I need to come up with some interesting breakfasts!

SW Rnd 271: 164.9 lbs
9/3: 164.2 lbs
I got my smart scale to work again after I stopped doing what it was asking me to do and tried something different. Fairly good day although I am struggling to not eat my exercise calories.
9/4: 164.7 lbs
Crackers were my downfall.
9/5: 162.9 lbs
I actually managed to not eat my exercise calories. Not because of will power but because we ran out of crackers. The crackers are supposed to be for the kids but I tend to get into the "stuff it" mindset late in the day and eat them.
9/6: 163.8 lbs
The kids made cookies.
I ate too many cookies.
Bittersweet feelings.
9/7: 164.9 lbs
Pizza plus AF.
9/8: 164.9 lbs
Stuck to my calorie budget and exercised.
9/9: 164.2 lbs
Stuck to my calorie budget and exercised. I know to lose weight I need consistency day in and day out so I will try and keep this momentum going.

9/11 - 150.2 - I opened my computer with every intention to check in yesterday and ended up on an unplanned work call from 1pm until 530 (which is an unplanned hour of overtime pay, at least) which completely distracted me from ever getting a post out. Also, approval was pushed for travel next week and, due to schedules and flights, I'll be traveling Monday and Wednesday with the event Tuesday (no flights out late enough Tuesday). Good news is that I'll get home at a decent hour Wednesday and should be able to eat dinner at home. With that said, though, there's naturally some travel weight I'll pack on in inflammation/water weight. I should be able to do like last time and hit the gym here at home for my normal leg day before I have to travel (so long as I'm fully packed and prepared) so I only have to worry about workouts Tuesday and Wednesday. Because I'll be home early enough, I should be able to resume my normal gym routine Thursday and Friday. Fortunately Coach is increasing macros to get me up to maintenance so I should have a bit more wiggle room on this trip than I have in the past which is nice. Now to keep the movement up!

Previous Day's Comments9/03 - Also posted on the previous one. Oops. I'm bloated, retaining water, and just feeling meh. The weather is very much sleeping weather for me (raining and dreary. I love it, but I'm so drained from this weekend it's really not helping me get work done!). I did get to the gym this morning after skipping yesterday. I did a very quick kettlebell workout just to get some kind of movement in yesterday but it wasn't enough. Today the gym lifted my spirits a bit until I sat down behind my computer to work and I'm back to wanting to face plant my keyboard and sleep my day away. Oops! Day is all planned out according to macros and I'm diligently working to front-load water so I don't mess that up again. I barely got in my gallon yesterday and failed to get enough water all weekend otherwise. Here's to progress!
9/04 - I bounced to the 149.x range a couple times before settling here. Probably still holding on to water weight. I feel rather puffy. I stuck to goals yesterday and am on track to do so again today if I eat my dinner and no more snacking after that! I have 28oz left to drink before bed to hit my 1 gallon (128oz) goal Coach set for me. I'm also feeling better mentally and had a really good day at the gym today which is was nice after missing Monday and having an off day yesterday. As of today, I have exactly 1 month until I leave for my week-long vacation! I'm not ready but so ready all at once.
9/05 - Managed to stick to goals/macros and drop back down. I am feeling a bit more hungry than usual so I'll see if Coach will maintain or increase. It's not horrible, but any deeper of a deficit may be tempting fate with binging at my weakest moments hah! I did much better about hitting my goal of 8-10k steps and also managed to get in my water goal. Today I'm having a similar lunch and snack to yesterday but a slightly different dinner. I'm aiming to intuitively adjust the lunch/snack to account for the different macros within dinner. I still have one more meal to eat intuitively and 1-2 full days of no tracking this week. Monday's holiday (US) really put me a tad behind - I can't believe it is already Thursday! Tomorrow I'll likely eat lunch intuitively as well as I'll be running errands in town and I don't anticipate being home in time for lunch. Because Monday was a holiday, my 4 days of meal prepped dinners includes Friday (usually Friday is improvised) and breakfast is usually fairly straightforward so lunch it is. Plus, if I eat out it's nearly always just an estimate anyway so perfect to "skip" tracking.

9/09 - I'm up due to this weekend. I went over on Friday with pizza for my "intuitive" meal and then Saturday was my non-logged day. BF gave me a surprise of a dinner and movie to see Beetlejuice but I ended up way over on macros/calories. We had Asian food which always leaves me retaining water and a bit bloated. It's okay, I'll bounce back. Coach increased my macros this week and we will move up to maintenance for awhile to recover my metabolism before I go back into a cut. I had an AMAZING leg day at the gym so we're focusing on gaining muscle and repairing metabolism after several months in a cut. This is okay. I battled hunger last week so I will be happy to have a little extra food so I'm not battling so hard.

Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024! I am looking forward to being a participant this round🙂

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 271 (my 201st). 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, still not doing very well, 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.

SW Rnd 271
9/3 142.4 (trend 141.4) no structured walking, child minding little DGDs; we went panning for gems & fossils!
9/4 142.4 (trend 141.6) 6.4 miles walked
9/5 142 – (trend 141.6) 6.29 miles walked, struggling ☹.
9/6 142 – trend (141.7) 8.68 miles walked, stayed strong.
9/7 DNW - we are away for the weekend in our caravan at Stourport-on-Severn, when we got here we discovered it is carnival week. 10.6 miles walked yesterday. Trying to get my mojo back, think it's working -slowly!! Or is it that I am with DH who is so strict in what he eats? 🤞 It's the former!!
9/8 DNW - 13 miles walked, good day food wise.
9/9 141 – (trend 141.6) Good to see a reduction in both numbers. 6.2 miles walked. Back home.
9/10 139.6 – (trend 141.4) 6.93 miles walked yesterday. Feeling better with myself, but mustn’t sit back and get complacent.
9/11 139.6 – (trend 141.1) 8.79 miles walked.
9/12 140.6 - (trend 141.1) 11.48 miles walked. Can't say I'm not disappointed in the up tick on the list day, but it's got to be normal fluctuation as I started in plan again yesterday. 1.8 pound loss this round.
👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE & I AM WHAT I EAT!!!!! 👍👍.4 -
@Chapter_3: no matter what "level" hurricane", it's always dangerous and a mess- hope you don't sustain too much damaged from this one and it's a quick cleanup for you and your community!4
