What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

Day/Weight/Comment
ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 194.2
12/02-192.8-(Trend Weight: 192.0)- It’s great to start the new round with a nice drop but I ended the last round with an inflated weight due to my weekend Thanksgiving Dinner. Any loss from today’s weight is what I will consider progress. December will be riddled with multiple challenges for most of us. Mine will be all the required travel to shop for Christmas. I do some of it online but I definitely get out for the hustle and bustle too. I will be working to keep things in check as often as I can. I plan on keeping my home a safe zone when I’m here as those days will really help the overall bottom line (and bottom overall lol). Baking and dessert making will be a challenge but that will not be until much later in the month so no reason not to work on some progress going into December. I’d like to start well and finish well once the Holiday is under my belt. Tomorrow I travel for a dental cleaning. Lunch will be out and I’ll try to get some shopping in while in the city. That’s one less trip later! Welcome to our new friends and our returning old friends.

Current GoalsDon’t give up on the day when it’s challenging. Choose to make good decisions in those moments instead of giving in.
Main struggles:
1. Working from home makes it easy to stress eat or just eat out of boredom/habit.
2. Sleeping less (have two puppies, a 6mo and a 10mo old) makes it hard to wake up early enough to get a good workout in or at least to feel good awaking up. Feel defeated in the motivation and drive department compared to how I was previously.
Past Challenge StatsRND 279 : SW - 175.8 : EW - 176.4 : ⬆️ 0.6
RND 280 : SW - 175.7
12/02 - 175.7
Gym: 40m shoulders and arms, 20m incline treadmill walk
Wins: got up on time and had a good workout.
Challenges: around 1-2pm the work from home snack urge starts creeping up. I grabbed a bag of honey/sugar coated peanuts (a giant Costco size bag) and ate some out of the bag. I know that is a no no and did it anyway. I didn’t go completely crazy, but I weighed enough nuts out to know that they add up quickly. I estimate I ate at least 3-4 servings which is 500+calories in peanuts. Never worth it at all. Definitely a snack that needs to be pre-weighed out and not eaten out of the bag. The thing is idk why I just didn’t eat what was already planned from my meals. Because I ate the peanuts, I decided I should just eat a meal and then I ended up eating dinner at 2pm. Was absolutely dragging after that. Wanted to just take a nap. And thats tough with what I do for work. I need my brain! I need a plan for that 1pm weird hour when I drop the ball. And I need to actually hold myself accountable 👏🏽

@Blueberries59 agree about Wicked! I loved it! I'm going to a singalong/dress-up version of it on Sunday, haha! Don't worry, I didn't sing in the regular showing.
My hubby and I loved Wicked so much in the theater, we booked tickets to see it in Broadway! Going to NY for the first time as an adult in January! So excited!

Thanks so much 😊 I have felt a bit helpless on this journey by myself so seeing all these amazing efforts people are putting into here gives me hope that I can do this

Day 2
I woke up optimistic about this, thinking of actually counting my calories today. I work around food and really have to pick up whole foods I can eat because the food and salads we prepare are full of sugar. I am amazed by how much sugar we add to everything. So for now going to stick to boiled eggs at work then have dinner at home. I had almost 8000 steps. Wishing you all a lovely day

Id like to join but I don't do weight checks daily so if y'all don't mind Ill post my final calorie count instead my daily maximum goal is 2300 calories start weight 286.2
12/02 1772 I managed to make it well into my eat window before I began eating. when I ate my final meal I really didn't feel too hungry but I know I will be starved tomorrow if I had stopped at the 1000 calories I had eaten so far at that point. I hope doing this will help me be more accountable and ultimately stay on my diet longer.

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 280 (my 210th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine & this round @CapeWrathUltra.
This round I’m continuing 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 be diligent as only 3-5 days per round staying on the waggon is not sufficient to get me back to where I want to be, I know at this time of year it is very difficult with all the festivities; mid-round I weighed 1 pound lighter, but then the celebrations happened. If I can keep at a pound a round I’ll be well happy. Another 3 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.

12/1 141.6 (trend 141.7) only walking was quite a stroll, visited a Narnia themed Wrest Park & wandered around the grounds. 1 pound lost this round which is in line with my BGHG & no binge this round at all, so that’s all goals met!! Yippee, let’s do that next round too.
EW 279 141.6

12/2 141.6 (trend 141.6) I quite like the new round number to be the same as the end as the last. 7.6 miles walked. Successfully negotiated Sunday roast linner out with all my siblings before DB starts his 2000+mile “riding home for Christmas” to Turkey on his motorbike. I chose sensibly but know that food out is prepared a lot differently from how I do.
12/3 141 .6 (trend 141.6) 7.96 miles walked.

Heading in the right direction. I ate really well today and under calorie limit, and surprise surprise I felt like I had heaps of energy in today's workout (don't you love that feeling?!). Tomorrow they're doing gelato at work as part of the christmas festivities but I'm already over all the christmas indulgences and it's not even christmas yet - it's hard to say no and not feel like a party pooper. But oh well, I just have to put myself first and not care what anyone thinks. Fingers crossed I don't cave to peer pressure.10 -
I enjoy reading everyone’s posts with my morning coffee.

12/02- 170.2
12/03- 170.6 I’m not at peak performance but I’m pushing through. I’d really like to be further along with house decorating but I say that every year and some how it all comes together.
I know I don’t have to clean behind the refrigerator and on top of the kitchen cabinets but I’m sure if I didn’t for some reason it will be noticed.
DH is helping by handling dinner, last night he picked up both a salad and sushi. I needed both. My focus this round is to survive to fight another round! I’ll be very happy if I can just stay fairly even.
I never eat much at the big party but the weekend of leftovers is usually my down fall.
I don’t have a plan for that this year except to white knuckle my way through and hope for the best!10 -

Mission: Continuously improve daily habits that strengthen a “Healthy, Strong & Fit” identity.
#HSF 📣#bestshapeofmylife📣
#helpfulhabits #agingyounger
📣BHAG Restated: My FIRST BHAG is to hit 128lbs on this #HSF journey and maintain a “+ or -“ 2lb range. I HAVE NEVER LIVED THERE! Basically lose 4lbs by 1/10/2025 (assuming I’m actually 132 once this Thanksgiving wreckage flushes out) which at my age and metabolic quirks, will be really, really hard to do, if even possible. I think I’ll know more if this is “doable” within a week or so. I want a BHAG that’s achievable with hard work and determination.

About Me & R280 Commitments:
********************************F66, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean P:E (ProteinG> (Cg+Fg) A clean/whole food WOE- (🚫processed foods). Track macros, all fitness and NSVs. I’ve had an unhealthy relationship with food my entire life.Previous Daily
HW 172lbs in 2010. Lost 30lbs in 2014 to 128lbs. Crazy🎢 for 10years. Joined JGMTD R231 7/31/23. Lost 15lbs 8/1 -11/23. Said goodbye FOREVER to the 🎢! I’ve named my maintenance journey “#HSF” & “Healthy Strong Fit” on my way to
📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻December Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Dec:
1. P:E: Protein g greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and cals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan. 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 round. 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 added ⏱️“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 12+ 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 20g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 110-125g Protein
8. ✅#HSF Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
9. ✅#HSF 💦70-80oz daily
10. ✅#HSF Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
11. 💤 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
12.Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
13.Rotating 115g to 125g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 128- 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !
****************12/2 134.0 😳 surely this will be defeated by the end of this round! I’ll update this later today with my intentional post for this round! IM HERE AND DETERMINED TO RIGHT THE COURSE! Goal: Wipe-out the 2-day Thanksgiving damage. BHAG: 1 lb per round.

* Strength training 2-3 times this next week.
* 90+ grams of protein each day.
* Drink more water!
SW RND 280—157.2
12/02 156.2 I just realized I didn’t post yesterday and so got everything confused in the post I made to the last round by accident this morning. Oh well, no loss last round after all! I am recommitting to daily goals I had going back in September.
12/03 156.6 Well, I joined the Silver Sneakers program offered by my insurance program and went back to the gym for the first time since Covid. Had a good workout and wondered at the time why I had waited this long—just lazy I’m sure. This morning, I’m sure feeling it! Met all my goals yesterday and feel more focused than in a while, so I’m hoping the little uptick is just sore muscles. It’s time for me to tone instead of JUST lose, but I’ll have to go slow with the workouts.

@reshii_devi: so happy to see you back- your posts and energy have always been inspirational for me! And boy, I know how you feel- it's really, really easy to lose the momentum and very hard to pick it up again, but you're amazing- I know what you can do!7

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.

12/3: glad to see that going in the right direction, but I need to be very careful- last year I gained 10 lbs between Oct-Dec. Yesterday was my first long walk with DD#2 since before foot surgery- very slow still, and limping, but it feels so good to be able to move again. Today I'm going to the gym for the first time since Oct 15.7 -
Thought I started yesterday but must have not pressed enter. Off to a rocky start. I love this thread, the positive energy and support of everyone involved. Such a wonderful combination of accountability and understanding. I am back, wish i would just stay...but life has been quite busy, sold my house and moved several states away since last time- no longer in the Midwest.

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 194.2
12/02-192.8-(Trend Weight: 192.0)- It’s great to start the new round with a nice drop but I ended the last round with an inflated weight due to my weekend Thanksgiving Dinner. Any loss from today’s weight is what I will consider progress. December will be riddled with multiple challenges for most of us. Mine will be all the required travel to shop for Christmas. I do some of it online but I definitely get out for the hustle and bustle too. I will be working to keep things in check as often as I can. I plan on keeping my home a safe zone when I’m here as those days will really help the overall bottom line (and bottom overall lol). Baking and dessert making will be a challenge but that will not be until much later in the month so no reason not to work on some progress going into December. I’d like to start well and finish well once the Holiday is under my belt. Tomorrow I travel for a dental cleaning. Lunch will be out and I’ll try to get some shopping in while in the city. That’s one less trip later! Welcome to our new friends and our returning old friends.
12/03-191.8-(Trend Weight: 192.0)- These are my stats from a different challenge. Wow, what a bad year 2024 has been for weight loss for me!!! Up 12.6 from Jan 1st to December 1st. Up 16.2 lbs from my lowest on March 1st. Something is not working physically, mentally, emotionally. I’ve got to figure this out!

I lost an average of 3 lbs last round. I was focusing on going to the gym 5 days/week. I made it 2 times. Other days I did some walking. So again I will focus on going to the gym 5 days/week.
🐸I will keep the analogy of boiling frog in my head🐸

Comment (Dec. 3, 2024):
Watching Monday Night Football didn't derail me last night. I passed on the guac and chips, and I had 2 hard seltzers, which are less than half of the calories of the DIPAs that I usually drink. Running out of Thanksgiving leftovers, so that should help, too.8 -
@Blueberries59 agree about Wicked! I loved it! I'm going to a singalong/dress-up version of it on Sunday, haha! Don't worry, I didn't sing in the regular showing.
My hubby and I loved Wicked so much in the theater, we booked tickets to see it in Broadway! Going to NY for the first time as an adult in January! So excited!
That is so exciting!! I saw it in Philly once. I tried to see it SO many times when I lived in NYC in 2008-2010 but tickets were impossible to get. I stood in line for their cheap ticket lottery almost once a week and never managed to see it, haha. Thrilled for you!5 -
Hello again, JGMTD crew! I'm Amanda, 39F/5'2" in Virginia
R280 SW: 129.4
R280 GW: 128.0
Starting off December with a couple of new goals:
- Daily core exercises
- 2 full body strength workouts per week
So for the round this equates to:
NS GOALS:
🏃🏻♀️ 7/10 days
🏋🏻♀️ lift 3/10 days
🚫 no drinking 5/10 days
📝 track food 7/10 days
✔️core workout 10/10 days
(tracked for the previous day)
Previous days' monologues:12/02 - 128.4 🏃🏻♀️✔️ Pleasantly surprised again with a loss. Probably pushing through some more of the retained water from the week. But I'm also not wanting to lose muscle and have been bad about prioritizing strength training with all of the running I've been doing. I don't want to literally run my butt off! So I'm going to lift today or tomorrow as well as getting a few running miles in. I don't have a long run scheduled this week which is nice. We got our tree from a snowy tree farm yesterday and the kids really got into the Christmas spirit! Unfortunately that means they're already asking for cookies. Going to be a tough month.
12/02 - 128.4 🏃🏻♀️✔️
12/03 - 129.6 🏃🏻♀️✔️🚫📝 A deserved gain, for sure. I was so peckish yesterday, roving all over the kitchen trying to find something that would taste good and leave me sated. I came up blank despite eating all the things. Then we went out for Mexican dinner which obviously is filled with salt. I did opt for fajitas but had plenty of chips and cheese dip as well as some nibbles from my kid's quesadilla. I skipped the margarita, though, so that was a victory. Today I HAVE to go to the store to get some snacks for myself so I can stay on track. I also have to walk the dogs, run, and lift weights, lol. And do my job at some point as well. Hmm, time management is not my forte.

It is a Monday, day one of JGMTD! Fresh start time! I have GOT to get out and either go to the gym or take a nice walk (in the cold,) Too much time yesterday afternoon vegging on football in front of the boob tube.
I have some beach time coming up and I am in serious danger of being mistaken for a beached whale. It’s so embarrassing when people try to roll me back into the ocean.

Really good exercise yesterday. Really bad eating. I have a bit of a head cold also. Combination of sore muscles, bloated gut and cold symptoms means I don’t feel much like taking on the world this morning.
Just read all of yours posts though and I am encouraged.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.6
