    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 192.0

    11/22 -191.2- (Trend weight -191.7-) I made it past day 1 of 4 with house guests DD and DGS. I had to pick DGS up early from school yesterday because he was an uncooperative 1st grader who frustrated his poor teacher so much she actually left the classroom crying. He sat in the floor and refused to get up and get in line to leave the art room. So today he was suspended and with no school I was able to weigh in at my normal time and before my meds. Nice to see another drop on the scale. I’m not going to lie and say I was perfect yesterday, but not too bad considering the temptations. My trend weight has been the same for several days now. It just doesn’t trust me so it hasn’t dropped. Sadly, I understand. Hopefully it will tomorrow. It is projecting on trendweight.com that I will hit my goal of losing about 44 more pounds by September of 2056. Ha! I was born in 1960 so I will not likely be alive in 2056. It’s okay though, my scale weight has been going down and I will prove that snarky trend weight wrong! Good luck this round, my friends. It will be a tough round with holidays and more but I plan on doing all I can, when I can. Let’s make ourselves proud!

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

    🎷 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.e. to weigh 138 or under. 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.
    11/23 DNW – luckily yesterday the roads had cleared of snow & ice for us to tow the caravan out for a weekend away in Delamere Forest. Managed a 6 mile walk in the forest before darkness descended. Stayed within calorie limit.

    @judefit1 I remember being in California in my teens and asking where the local diner was. I was met by blank stares.
    I also had chicken souvlaki and a Greek salad yesterday as my healthy(ish) eating plan!

    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 :)

    Sorry, I haven’t any idea how to do that or if it’s possible. Would that then make it one continuous post? After 7.5 years (that’s how long this/these have been running) that would be rather lengthy. I will check it out - no promises.

    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.

    Hello everyone, I'm so happy to join you for the next 10 days. Especially going into Thanksgiving.

    I'm 47yo, 5ft,5inches . I started weighing myself in kg when I went above 190lbs. I found the numbers too depressing. I changed from an active job to a sedentary job and gained 30kg in 2 years. I'm at my highest weight in my life and want to get healthy before 50.


    @AliciaPeters310 Welcome to the group. It's so nice you've joined us! Good luck this round.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 192.0

    11/22 -191.2- (Trend weight -191.7-) I made it past day 1 of 4 with house guests DD and DGS. I had to pick DGS up early from school yesterday because he was an uncooperative 1st grader who frustrated his poor teacher so much she actually left the classroom crying. He sat in the floor and refused to get up and get in line to leave the art room. So today he was suspended and with no school I was able to weigh in at my normal time and before my meds. Nice to see another drop on the scale. I’m not going to lie and say I was perfect yesterday, but not too bad considering the temptations. My trend weight has been the same for several days now. It just doesn’t trust me so it hasn’t dropped. Sadly, I understand. Hopefully it will tomorrow. It is projecting on trendweight.com that I will hit my goal of losing about 44 more pounds by September of 2056. Ha! I was born in 1960 so I will not likely be alive in 2056. It’s okay though, my scale weight has been going down and I will prove that snarky trend weight wrong! Good luck this round, my friends. It will be a tough round with holidays and more but I plan on doing all I can, when I can. Let’s make ourselves proud!

    11/23 -189.2- (Trend weight -191.4-) Whoosh! It does pay off when I stick to it. Of course, I don’t entirely trust that I’m full-on in the 180’s again until I hit the magical 7 (as in 187 point anything) since I can easily fluctuate 1-3 pounds even with one meal. But to dip my toes into the 180’s again is so hopeful! My trend weight finally “got off the pot” too. I am happy today! I just realized that my final day weigh-in for this round will be the morning after my Huge family Thanksgiving Dinner held on Saturday. I may skip the next morning weigh-in and wait a day or two to report/record. It doesn't make sense to start the next round on a false or temporarily high number.

    11/24 -xxxxx- (Trend weight -xxxxx-)

    11/25 -xxxxx- (Trend weight -xxxxx-)

    11/26 -xxxxx- (Trend weight-xxxxx-)

    11/29 -xxxxx- (Trend weight-xxxxx-)

    11/30 -xxxxx- (Trend weight-xxxxx-)

    12/01 -xxxxx- (Trend weight-xxxxx-)

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