November 22 - December 1, 2024

Please join us starting on 11/22 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 279.

Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share. Make the board your own - track what is important for YOUR JOURNEY.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

If you feel your post is too lengthy, you can add spoilers to temporarily hide the information. It is readily available by tapping the SPOILER bar. To create a Spoiler just type or copy [ Spoiler ] xxx [ /Spoiler ] Omit the spaces within the brackets and put your information where I have xxx

    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

    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 279 (my 209th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine for another round.

    This round I’m going to join @Chapter_3 in in a BHAG of 1 pound a round to the end of the year. I need to shake myself up cuz only 3-5 days per round staying on the waggon is not sufficient to get me back to where I want to be. 4 pounds would really get me on my way; I want to stay strong, walk the walk as well as talk the talk! & make the round a successful one.
    So, goals for this round;
    • First and foremost, no feeding frenzies - (carried over from last few rounds)
    • to weigh less at the end of the round than the start & a pound is my small BHAG for this round
    • 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.

    11/21 142.6 ( trend 142.6) 10.56 miles walked, the fresh snow was lovely to walk in & I thoroughly enjoyed marvelling at natures beauty all through the walk.
    1.6 pound gained this round, I deserved it ☹. Moving on, my problem is I can talk the talk, but struggle to walk the walk with will power. Hope you’ve all done better than me, I’ll just keep plodding on, see you all next round.
    @Itladyee - Thanks, Charissa! Poor effort = poor results. I need to get my act together!

    SW RND 279 141.8
    11/22 141.8 (trend 142.5) 9.03 miles walked, footpaths were quite dodgy in places with the ice, but just walked these sections gingerly:) Feeling happier in myself now that I’ve made this commitment, hoping to stick with it & keep this mind set, I know as the festive period gets closer it will become more difficult with all the various food-based meeting ups, so need to make the earlier rounds and not “festive gathering” days really count.

    Jude, souvlaki chicken and a Greek salad, a healthy option except it came with a pile of fried zucchini sticks with tzaziki. Doesn't sound good?

    OMG! This sounds so yummy I’m ready to hop on a plane!

    I'm in for round 279! @quiltingjaine is it possible to make a group, that way we never miss a challenge? If not, totally fine, do what is most convenient for you! Thank you for bringing everyone together for this challenge :)
