    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 277 (my 207th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.

    This round want to stay strong & make the round a successful one.
    Goals for this round;
    • First and foremost, no feeding frenzies
    • to weigh less at the end of the round than the start
    • be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end
    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 youngest 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 overindulge, 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 I must not jeopardize that luck.

    @judefit1 There is a strange feeling when you are in the present moment and so aware that you are creating memories that will sustain you moving forward. Is it backwards nostalgia? I’m glad your family will all be together again and for every moment you spend with DB.

    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.

    11/11 -190.0- (Trend weight-191.4-)Down 0.6 lbs this round so it will be nice to document it under the spoiler in pink. I was really hoping to dip back down into the 180’s this morning after having such a good day yesterday. Humph! However, my trend weight is still going down so I will take any wins that come my way. Nice round everyone! Thanks for continuing to show up for yourself and for me. I learn so much from you all. See you tomorrow in the next round. Let’s buckle down as we approach the coming holidays!

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    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

    Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    "Do or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

    I don’t remember who said what in round 276 but something in my brain clicked. I am getting back to my old routine of longer daily fasts - at least 18 hours which includes sleep time.

    Comments pertain to previous day

    SW Rnd 277 133.0 AW 133.1
    11/2 133.0 Got much accomplished yesterday-dropped of my national ballot and community ballot, “led” arts and crafts. Took DH to “vote in person” but he still wasn’t feeling up to snuff and the line was long so we left. I hope he feels better by Tuesday.
    11/3 132.5 Today our for firstborn’s first born turns 30!!
    11/4 132.5
    11/5 132.5 Interrupted by TMI so I weighed before and after and adjusted this morning’s weigh in.
    11/6 133.0
    11/7 133.5 Outback this afternoon
    11/8 133.5 Very pleased
    11/9 133.0 WOW I’m really surprised. I ate the remainder of my Outback dinner - even the baked potato. That was my OMAD at noon. Taking care of a friend’s cat for the next week (at her house), taking a neighbor to the airport and then another neighbor is having a birthday shindig! Busy day.
    11/10 134.5 DH thinks he’s getting sick again so we skipped the birthday shindig. I ate mindlessly at home.
    11/11 133.5 Great Greek yesterday.

    My round average is down more than 0.5# and as I said years ago, any loss is a good loss!

    See you tomorrow in Round 278!

    11/11 - 158.1 - Quite alright! I'm up due to eating out Asian last night which always causes some water retention and an increase on the scale. It was BF and I's veteran's day dinner so it was free other than our drinks and we enjoyed it with friends so it was lovely and worth it. Yesterday was also fully intuitive eating so I'm hoping I got close to macros, but without actually tracking anything, I can't say for sure. Back at it today. Another free dinner tonight (today is actual Veteran's Day) if we decide to go but I have 4 meal prepped meals for this week's dinners if we don't. Will see how BF feels. Gym this morning for leg day and did a 5k walk with the dogs after as part of a virtual 5k I signed up for that benefits veterans across the US. Very busy workday so keeping this short <3 see you next round!!

    Previous Day's Comments
    11/02 - DNP

    11/04 - Friday night we had Asian food out so I always bounce up and retain water. Saturday was an absolute mess with missing breakfast, snacking on whatever I could find at the fire station to keep from feeling faint, and then having lunch delayed by nearly 2 hours due to poor planning on the departments behalf and a training event that went over by nearly 2 hours. I was able to stay on track Sunday and I'm finally seeing the benefit. Coach has upped macros and believes I'm still not quite at maintenance so I have to get through maintenance before hitting our planned surplus. So much food! I'm happy. I travel Wednesday for a day trip for work so no gym, but went to day and plan to go tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday for my regular routine. I also have lunch and dinner meal prepped for the week so I can take my lunch and snacks with on my trip since it's a 2 hour drive, no flights. Feeling pretty good despite the scale upticks.
    11/05 - I'll take whatever drop I get, even the smallest one. I've got today pre-planned and tomorrow as well for my day trip down to a work site to still meet macros so my only focus will have to be to get my steps in (I'll also likely miss my daily dog walk depending on when I get home) and hit my water goal (1 gallon/128oz). Today I knocked out the gym, took the dogs for our walk, and voted. Now to focus on work and be productive!
    11/06 - Managed to get home far earlier than expected due to the onsite engineer being tied up starting over lunch on another site. No gym but after this call I'm listening in on I'll take the dogs on a walk so I can get my steps (I'm alarmingly low on steps right now) and get some good fresh air. I'm behind on water a bit and just had to work my macros around due to a spur-of-the-moment breakfast taco offering on site that I couldn't turn down (they'd see it as very rude, just how that site runs and glad I know that from those years working there). I managed to make it work out with macros, though, so all will be well today. I have breakfast, lunch, dinner, and my pre-workout snack logged for tomorrow so I'll need to figure out the snacks to meet macros which makes life a bit easier for me. I feel confident I can make this week a good solid effort despite the hiccups
    11/07 - An expected bounce up after a last-minute stop for fast food at dinner. BF and I were running errands and it took longer than expected. We were both terribly hungry and decided, despite knowing we wouldn't feel good later, to stop and grab food. I'm actually quite shocked I'm not up further! I'm sticking to macros today no matter what. I'm a tiny bit behind on water, but nothing I can't make up quickly. I also have a plan for Friday and Saturday evening for dinners at home since we're going out Sunday for Veteran's Day. BF and I don't get off work Monday for the actual day but fortunately the restaurant is allowing veterans to reserve Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday for their free meal. We're going with Fam since they'll be in town that day. I also think I forgot to mention that I was selected as Client of the Month with my coaching program so that's exciting. Even if I don't see all the changes yet, my effort is recognized and I know others are seeing the changes. The downfall of me living in my body - the tiny changes add up over time for others, especially when there's a few weeks between seeing each other, but I see it daily so I don't notice them. I'm simply glad to know I'm on the right track, especially as the scale weight is going up, even if the mirror is starting to show some progress.
    11/08 - I will take this slight drop! I'm feeling pretty good today and had a solid leg/booty/low back day to feel like I've actually made progress. I know arm/shoulders day is a good workout and my arms are absolutely getting stronger, but it's my lowest weight day all week so I sometimes walk away feeling like I didn't do as much, especially compared to my leg days when I'm moving a lot of weight. Nature of the gym, though, so I'm always happy when I get to finish the week with a strong leg day. Food is all pre-planned for today and need to get BF to help me figure out meal prep dinner ideas for next week so I can go grocery shopping tomorrow or Sunday morning. No big plans this weekend except for a Veteran's Day dinner Sunday night (Veteran's Day is Monday but the special is extended to the weekend to accommodate more people) and the usual grocery shopping and meal prepping. Going to hang out at home if possible and relax

    RND 277
    10/23: 231.8 lbs (Yesterday was a 500-calorie 'fast day')
    10/24: 232.6 lbs (I guess the half-bottle of white wine and 4 cheddar rice cakes - and not enough water - were the culprits!)
    10/25: 230.8 lbs (Yesterday, was a total fast day - except for morning coffee and unsweetened herbal tea. It was easy doing the fast, as I got totally agitated with my food delivery person who totally flaked out with my grocery order and I ended up in a fight with the supermarket! So I didn't feel like eating! I think all the aggravation burned extra calories. Problem was resolved in my favor, eventually.)
    10/26: 229.8 lbs (Yesterday I was tired physically and took TWO naps during the day... but managed to "trudge" through 2 hours of peddling, but with four breaks inbetween. Found out I have a new vegetable I HATE, and threw away! Edamame, which are young soybeans.)
    10/27: 229.2 lbs (More energy yesterday for peddling. Yesterday, I cooked a HUGE new VAT of cabbage soup. Hoping I can make room for at least 4 quart containers in my freezers. In any case, I'll be eating A LOT of cabbage soup this coming week! LOL)
    10/28: 229.4 lbs (Two big bowls of cabbage soup yesterday! LOL Wondering how many of you went on the "cabbage soup diet" which was all the craze some years back???)
    10/29: 229.2 lbs (Today, is normally my 500-calorie "fast" day, but I dunno!)
    10/30: 229.0 lbs (Unless this was a fluke in the scale, I LOST .2 lbs having snacked on THREE small croissants with pumpkin-butter last night? Today is DEFINITELY a total fast day, except for 0-calorie beverages)
    10/31: 229.2 lbs (Well, it WAS a scale fluke, or Halloween prank! I did a total fast yesterday, drank lots of water, but the scale shows I'm UP .2 lbs! LOL)
    11/1: 228.6 lbs (Ahhh... well, TODAY's weight makes more sense! LOL)

    SW RND 277 - November 1st, 2024 - 228.6 lbs
    (MFP SW - 6/1/2024 - 286.2 lbs)

    11/2: 228.8 lbs (Water weight, as well as I had a can of corn as a vegetable yesterday, so more calories compared to a green veggy.)
    11/3: 229.0 lbs (Fehhh, I'm sensing a weight plateau after looking at my scale numbers these last 8 days.)
    11/4: 229.2 lbs
    11/5: DNW
    11/6: 228.4 lbs
    11/7: 228.4 lbs (Explanation: Monday morning I had both my COVID and Shingles vaccinations (big mistake, having both at the same time, as by Monday evening I started with weak legs, sore arms, fever, sweats, and major "blahs"... which totally wiped me out Tuesday. Stayed in bed the whole day. Better by Thursday, but still not recovered completely.)
    11/8: 229.2 lbs
    11/9: 227.6 lbs
    11/10: 228.4 lbs (Today's my final day of recovery! Been behind in posting to my various MFP Challenges. Looking forward to exercising tomorrow after 6 days of "illness".)
    11/11: 227.2 lbs

    Hi, I'm Charissa, back for another round. I will keep coming back and I will get this thing right, sooner or later.
    Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
    Round 277 - Ready, Set, Go!
    Very excited for this round. The last few have been "meh".... so I need some inspiration!
    I did end October lower than September, so that's a win!

    So here we go November 2024... my motto(s) - All the things I need to read daily!!!
    🏋🏾‍♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
    Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
    H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
    Lose weight in the kitchen ⚖️, get fit in the gym🏋🏾‍♀️
    Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!

    Goals this round:
    Resuming structure~Goals and Targets
    - Closing my rings M-S🚶🏽
    - Tracking/Under Calorie Budget > Plan for 1250 - Flex for 400 = 1650 (1250 - 1650) with small frequent meals🍎
    - Macros - hit Protein > Plan for 150. 100 is acceptable. (100 - 150) ✅
    - Water - 50 oz minimum ~ ultimately between 80 - 100💧
    - Downward trend⬇️

    SW RND 277
    11/2 223.6
    11/3 DNW
    11/4 223.6 ~ Time is flying by. Not by choice but I'm feeling a part of the "ick" group too. I just can't focus for more than a few hours. I did get a good workout in this morning,(added HIIT back in so worked up a sweat) so there's a start.
    11/5 223.2
    11/6 DNW Ate late last night and then didn't sleep well so I didn't want to face the scale! Today is my birthday. My husband kept asking me what I wanted to do.... I tried to think > you don't need food to celebrate >, but it didn't work. So, I'm opting for sushi for dinner and probably a cocktail. Then, I have 4 more days to right-size the ship.
    11/7 DNW ~ The sushi was good, I'm pretty sure it and the apple martini would have shown on the scale, so rather than spoil my mood, I'll true up tomorrow :)
    11/8 224.3 ~ Truing up as promised. Yesterday wasn't horrible...but it wasn't perfect either. Husband (oops, just realized I didn't log this) had purchased a piece of Salted Carmel Spice Cake from Portillos for my birthday. I don't really enjoy cake, but this cake is to die for. I didn't eat it for on my birthday but we split it last night. Time to get back to it... I've been less mobile as well the past two days.
    11/9 224.6
    11/10 224.4
    11/11 224.4 this round didn't go as planned. I guess I forgot that it included my birthday. I had a few too many treats this round. Moving on.
    … But on the other hand, my overall enthusiasm has dissipated somewhat. & to be expected as part of this journey. I’m continuing to accept the ups, the downs & the mundane. The Mind, Body & Soul - must all be nurtured & in sync!
    @chapter_3 Thank you for this! I feel the same and need to get that nurturing in motion and in sync! Even the treadmill was a challenge this morning....but I did it.

    Good luck @everyone in round 278!
