I skipped the movie theater popcorn yesterday. I really wrestled with the decision while waiting on line but once I got past the concession I was fine.
Movie theater popcorn always gets me too. They should really sell bags of SmartPop or Lesser Evil. Even if they upsold them I would buy that!

BackstoryIn 2022 I was around 157lbs with 24% bf. Was definitely in the “best shape” of my adult life then. Since then I started a new career working from home as a developer. Have moved away from my family for fiancés job. We’ve moved several times to various states in the short time span. Welcomed two puppies into the mix. Lots of changes. Lots of time spent at home. Lots of time spent away from family. Fell out of touch with friends. All of the adjustments and figuring out how to manage/handle more daily responsibilities and navigate through this phase of life has manifested into me gaining 20ish lbs and losing a lot of willpower, motivation, drive, positivity, etc that I once thrived on. Found this challenge and it has been helping me get it back. Nothing is permanent! Looking forward to working through this.
Overall Goals and ChallengesGoals
1. Focusing on behavior and mindset. Calories have been going way over for so long I need to reel the behavior back in a healthy way.
2. Don’t give up on the day when it’s challenging. Choose to make good decisions in those moments instead of giving in.
Challenges
1. Working from home makes it easy to stress eat or just eat out of boredom/habit.
2. Sleeping less (have two puppies, a 7mo and a 11mo 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.
Daily, Small, Attainable Goals1. Finish 1st 27oz water before 2pm
2. Finish 2nd 27oz water before bed
3. Alternate standing and sitting at desk every other hour during working hours.
4. Hit maintenance calories.

Puppy had another bad night. We were up every hour and a half taking him outside for emergencies. Thinking something he ate in the snow is not doing him any favors. There are a lot of dogs in our complex sharing the grass and puppy has something in his mouth every 2 seconds, ie mulch, sticks, snow, leaves, literally anything. Very hard to prevent / keep up with. I made coffee once the sun started coming up and forgot to weigh before I drank it. Just hoping this isn’t a thing that runs into Christmas. 😴🎄
Also not sure if I will make it to the gym because of this so if that is the case I need to do my best to reduce my calories. Striving for maintenance 💆🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️6 -

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 190.6
12/22-193.0-(Trend Weight: 192.2)- Lots of fun at the birthday party for my DGS’s 9th birthday. He is the one who is also on the autism spectrum and I was so thrilled to see so many children and their parents there. Socialization is so hard for many with autism. I went through this with my son who is also on the spectrum. There was pizza, cheese bread, cake & ice cream and all the fixings. I managed to keep portions to a “not bad” level. However, I got super hungry at 1:00 in the morning and ended up eating a large bowl of soup with about 12 round crackers. That didn’t help the scale this morning. I’m hoping tomorrow will show I’ve flushed all the sodium and that my weight is in check. I don’t expect progress after all that, but if I can be back to 190 point anything like yesterday, I will take it as a win. I don’t want to spend this entire round chasing my tail. This is going to be the hardest round of 2024 due to the holidays and traditions (did someone say cookies and fudge?) Good luck to you all this round. I am cheering you on. Know that you all inspire me to be a better version of me and I am grateful.

Several years back, I did a 5K for autism because my friend's granddaughter has autism. Before doing the run, I knew nothing of the condition. After the race, we all went to my friend's daughter's house, and when I sat on the floor, the little girl with autism sat on my lap and started chatting with me. I thought nothing of it, but when I looked-up, my friend and her daughter were both crying.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.

ROUND 282
12/22 – 133.5
UGH! – The best laid plans go awry! Yesterday started off just fine then I stopped by to get tire air pressure checked at the tire store. “Oh, ma’am, you may have a leak”. This led to a series of mishaps, broken wheel stud, stud head got loose in wheel, the most awful noise, etc., which took all afternoon to be rescued and deal with, plus I’m out a car. I missed my whole afternoon and did not handle the party as planned. I ended up eating too much, had two glasses (small) of wine, though I did have a good time. My weight sadly reflects the damage of sausage balls and cookies, wiping out the progress of the last round. Really, I didn’t have to fall apart. It was just an inconvenience that I let get into my head. And there was no leak in the tire!
Today is a new day. I’m off to choir and church. It always grounds me and reminds me of what is important. Plus today is the Christmas pageant, a chaotic treat.

I am traveling starting the 27th. I will still check in and report that I am logging, but I won't be weighing. My mini goal while I am away is to keep logging while I am gone. Doing OK. Managed for the past few days to eat more without going overboard.

@deepwoodslady Several years back, I did a 5K for autism because my friend's granddaughter has autism. Before doing the run, I knew nothing of the condition. After the race, we all went to my friend's daughter's house, and when I sat on the floor, the little girl with autism sat on my lap and started chatting with me. I thought nothing of it, but when I looked-up, my friend and her daughter were both crying.
@capewrathultra How heartwarming. You were part of a breakthrough and likely a rare moment. Clearly she knew you were on her side! How beautiful!

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.

Newbie here. I'm in!
Going on 56 years old- My goal is to make healthier choices, lose weight and create better eating habits.
I am 5'9 and I have been gaining and losing the same 15 to 20 pounds for the last 10 years.
I think I have finally learned that I have to change my behavior in order to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way. I think daily weigh ins will keep me focused and help hold me accountable for my choices.

Well, feeling disappointed today. I have a bunch of excuses but it doesn't change anything. All I can do is try harder today. Yesterday was a rest day after 6 days of workouts, so back at it today. I'm pleased that my strength training seems to affect my running positively. I'm proud of my exercise efforts, and I still made sure I was up and about and moving yesterday - you have to acknowledge progress where you can. Focusing on exercise goals at least distracts me from the toxic family christmas I am dreading!! 🎄🌟❤️ onwards and upwards 🙌🏼

Hi, I'm Charissa, losing the battle but still fighting the war!
Thank you, @QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
I'm gearing up mentally and physically for 2025
With just 10 days left, I am focusing on reinforcing good habits and introducing a few more to take me into the new year. Not focusing on the scale for now. I am also happy this round ends on 12/31 and we start the year FRESH and ENGAGED
Opening Comments from round 281I'm ending another year NOT where I want to be, actually slightly higher (right now)and that's not a good thing.
BUT ~ I fear to think where I might be had I just thrown in the towel completed.
My goal for the remainder of 2024 is to get to my starting weight for 2024, and that will be two years in a row, which is a wash.
Putting all into perspective - maintaining is a WIN
In the last 27 years, I have
* Lost 4 times (2 were in the last 5 years, which answers the question of what if I didn't even try!)
* Maintained 2 times
* Gained 21 times
2024... my motto(s) - All the things I need to read daily!!!
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!

12/22 ~ 227.4 ~ tomorrow’s number will not be pretty. I actually made the cookies on Saturday and did really well. I think I had two. Today, not so much, I’ve made up for restraint I had. Tis the season and It’s only one day. While I make several types, there are only two that I really like and they are almost gone! Yipee!!!

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!

Hi, I'm Charissa, losing the battle but still fighting the war!
Thank you, @QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
I'm gearing up mentally and physically for 2025
With just 10 days left, I am focusing on reinforcing good habits and introducing a few more to take me into the new year. Not focusing on the scale for now. I am also happy this round ends on 12/31 and we start the year FRESH and ENGAGED
Opening Comments from round 281I'm ending another year NOT where I want to be, actually slightly higher (right now)and that's not a good thing.
BUT ~ I fear to think where I might be had I just thrown in the towel completed.
My goal for the remainder of 2024 is to get to my starting weight for 2024, and that will be two years in a row, which is a wash.
Putting all into perspective - maintaining is a WIN
In the last 27 years, I have
* Lost 4 times (2 were in the last 5 years, which answers the question of what if I didn't even try!)
* Maintained 2 times
* Gained 21 times
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!🚫🍷

12/22 ~ 227.4 ~ tomorrow’s number will not be pretty. I actually made the cookies on Saturday and did really well. I think I had two. Today, not so much, I’ve made up for restraint I had. Tis the season and It’s only one day. While I make several types, there are only two that I really like and they are almost gone! Yipee!!!

@capewrathultra ~ glad you will finish the year with us. Hopefully you won’t be gone too long! Congrats on the downward trend. Keep it going!

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 282 (my 212th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.
This round I’m again taking something forward from @Chapter_3 (again) if I may "We should be strategically engaged with our lives each day, right?! That’s my new word… ENGAGED." " I will try to keep that word ENGAGED in my mind over these new 10 days. I was also joining her in in a BHAG of 1 pound a round to the end of the year, i.e. to weigh 138 or under, however, due to a blip in the last round, I know 138 is now unachievable, however I am now going to modify that to getting to 140 something or less. 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, but celebrations happen and this round includes Christmas Day. If I can keep at a pound a round, I’ll be well happy. 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 – I am not a shark!
• 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.

@BigappleBritt88 I just went through a bout of tummy issues with my senior dog.
I highly suggest rice/chicken/pumpkin (google for ratio) diet for a day or two. I make a batch when needed, leave two days in the fridge and freeze the rest in single serving portions. Future me always appreciates it when it’s needed!
I couldn’t believe the food at the movies- Cheeto popcorn, gas station style pizza, hot dogs, pretzels but you are right not a single slightly lower calorie option.4 -

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
12/22 – 136.4 Juggling lots. Started this post this morning. Never finished, but here it is at 7:30 PM
12/23 – 136.4 I guess I should be pleased. Hardest part of weighing this morning was undressing. It is 8 degrees outside at the moment, the townhouse we bought in 2021 has an uneven heating system, and the coldest room in the home is the master bath where the scale is. Could not bring myself to weigh at 5 am, when I first woke. But got it done before morning coffee. I think my number somewhat has to do with my digestive system. I am normally a “morning girl” and that has not been the case for three days. I am wondering if the 10 days of augmentin for the cat bite disrupted my gut biome. Anyhow, onwards we go. Gotta make it through the end of the year the best I can, then I have basically 4 months for a re-set of habits. Have a good day all!

Round 281 End Weight 173.6
12/22 171.4
12/23 172.4 I made a last minute bad order at breakfast. I went for protein but got mostly grease and salt. I ate it even though I wasn’t enjoying it.
Finished box of chocolates for lunch.
Did a cartoon face slap, head shake in the afternoon ended the day with a nice salad.
I plan to try a modified workout today and see how my side handles it. Fingers crossed it’s just a little sore. I’ve been focusing on engaging individual abs to support the strained muscle. This will either be a really fun challenge or a really dumb misstep. A girl’s gotta try!5 -

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.

Goals this round:
* taking the cue from all of you: STAY ENGAGED in my health!
* weigh every day, regardless of “scale dread”
* ending the round/year roughly the same weight will count as successful!

12/23: I may get on the scale later, after I exercise. We went out for a fabulous meal at one of our favorite restaurants, which was a totally wonderful, festive evening. I didn't eat terribly, but I did eat a lot- and it was really, truly worth the calorie. Why ruin it by feeling badly this morning? It was our last quiet before all the cooking and family descend upon us, and it was lovely.

@lita_loses_it_all You are right that this is the perfect group to join for the long haul! This is hands-down, the most supportive, kind, amazing group of people on the internet anywhere! And taking a long journey 10 days at a time has so many benefits. We can all attest to the fact that weight loss is not linear, so the group helps when the scales don't cooperate and cheers each other on when they do! I have learned so much here, and continue to every single day. Welcome to our group! Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to you!6
