    ROUND 288
    02/20 – 134.0 Morning Swim
    02/21 – 133.3 Trainer – upper body only today
    02/22 - 135.0 OMG – This is last night’s dinner with the in-laws – Morning swim
    02/23 - 132.9 Easy basement yoga

    Good news - I think I caught myself just in time before the weight explosion stuck. Not so good - my back and hip are calling my name this morning. I better take it easy. Even church will be a challenge. I go the Episcopal Church. It's almost a workout. Stand, sit, kneel, bow, repeat. I sing in the choir, at the front, so it'll be hard not to go with the flow.

    @skyleen75 - You're right - It's all but impossible to avoid pizza, especially on caught on the fly like that. Good move to vacate the premises. Good luck with your social eating activities. I, too, have a girls night out tonight that I'm almost dreading. Let's both remember the scale in the morning.

    @Slimmersixties - Stay the course and work the plan. I think sometimes our inner minds and bodies protect us from changing too much. (You've been on a fabulous downward roll.) They sabotage us and scream, that's enough being good. Eat! We're taking over! OK, not so scientific, but that's how I envision it. We just have to show them who's boss. Stick with us We'll help you through this. You just need one good day to turn it around.

    For all those who are NOT Change-Fans (like me) Thought we all could use this heads up to be ready for this major update coming

    I just learned that MFP will be switching to the rich text editor on 3/4/25. No more bbcode!
    I am guardedly optimistic after reading the following discussion that describes the editor's features. Looks like we'll lose underlining and font color, both of which I use often, but I see some improvements that might make it worth it.

    2/21 - 167.7
    2/22 - 167.9
    2/23 - 170.0 - We had date night last night. It was more of a late lunch/early dinner since the place we went to didn't open until 3. It's our favorite restaurant that closed a couple years ago and has since built their own building (rather than rent) and reopened the end of January. We've been wanting to go but life has been so hectic, especially with BF's travel. I knew I'd be up today and that's okay. I've gone ahead and set my goal on my MacroFactor app to losing 0.5lb/week and it'll adjust and improve it's guidance week to week. It has me at 1875 calories which is a steep drop off, but it wanted me to drop down to 1675 calories and losing 0.8lb/week. I'd rather ease in if I can. I still need to input my workouts into an app which I'll do once I post this, so I'm prepared for tomorrow morning. Overall, I'm feeling good. Behind on water today but focused on catching up!

    Previous Day's Comments
    2/20 - Wow, I didn't realize I had missed two days of checking in! Yesterday was very hectic with the cold snap that blew in. I worked from the living room with a fire going and didn't bring my personal computer with to check in which is challenging - going from 3 large screens to one tiny laptop. Today, as much as I'd love to have a fire going, I have a dental appointment this afternoon, right after lunch, and I won't dare leave a fire going, or even hot coals, while going 45 minutes away. Despite my alarm jolting me from a very realistic dream and knowing that it is miserably cold and I want nothing more than to just stay in bed cuddled up with the pups, I dragged myself to the gym. It was a good workout overall. One more of Coach's workouts and I'm done! On to my own program next week. I need to put my workout in one of the apps I'm trialing so I can keep track of it since it's currently only written down on a sheet of paper. I also need to plan out one more dinner for next week so I can finish off my grocery list for tomorrow morning. I'm also trying out an app recommended by one of the gym's trainers for macro tracking (called MacroFactor) and it will adjust calories and macros based on inputs. I've synced it so my weight gets automatically tracked and I'm trying different configurations to see if I can get my steps to sync as well. Technology is hard sometimes. Here's to hoping this works!
    2/21 - I don't know if I'm simply dropping bloat/water weight or if my body has caught up and what was a 10% bulk is now a maintenance, if not a slight deficit. This is okay, though, since I was planning to drop into a maintenance on Monday so I could then begin a cut so it feels like I'm simply ahead of the game. Today I've only tracked using my new MacroFactor app to get used to it. I'm well over on carbs already, though I suppose I could adjust my dinner to account for that. I need more fat and protein - a lot more protein. I may give in and make a protein shake since I'm also behind on my water intake and that will knock out two concerns in one solution. Feeling good. I still need to input my new workout plan into an app for next week so I'm not trying to remember everything or losing my paper (and can track weights/reps for future reference). I'll do that this weekend at some point. Likely later since BF is going to have a late night since he's about 4 hours away and has an interview between 3-5 tonight (meaning he won't leave until likely closer to 6 maybe 7 after documenting). I'll probably be in bed before he gets home unless things change. Especially as there's a potential for ice tonight starting after about 5pm between where he is and our house so he'll be having to take things slow and careful.

    Goals for the round:
    Weigh daily - ✔️
    Drink 2L water a day - ✔️
    Stay under calorie goal - ✔️

    Well I wasn’t expecting a loss this morning after afternoon tea and wine last night! 😊
    Today I’ve been very good, however my lunch had quite a lot of soy sauce on it so could see an increase due to the salt.

    End of the last round = 160.2

    Thursday 20th - 159.4 😊
    Friday 21st - 158.4 😊
    Sat 22nd - 158.0 😊

    I’M HOME! Hopelessly behind! I’m so sorry I couldn’t start 288 but now I have NO plans to be MIA. Sadly, our cruise was not great and DH returned home with a miserable cold. I will post 289 at the appropriate time and THANK YOU ALL for carrying on without me! No one on the ship had reliable internet OR any internet that I heard of. I couldn’t post from any of the Hawaiian Islands and I couldn’t even post yesterday from Ensenada!

    THANK YOU, @MusicSax!!

    Fell off the challenge bandwagon in round 256, managed to keep losing weight until June 12th when I hit 155.9 (70.7 kg). I fell off the weight loss wagon shortly after. Decided to start back up the day before Round 278 started.

    SW Rnd 288: 147 (66.7 kg)

    2/20- 147.5 (66.9) Another swing the wrong way. I don't know if TMI is to blame, TOM, too much sodium, too many carbs, or what. But I do know if I stay the course, it'll eventually correct.
    2/21- 147 (66.7) My teeth are still sore from the springs they put on my upper braces on Tuesday. I'm used to mild tenderness 24-48 hours after an appointment and I don't even really get sore anymore when my c-chains are switched out, but this has me eating soft foods and taking ibuprofen. I even woke up a few times during the night because my teeth were uncomfortable. But I'm excited because it marks the next step in my treatment.
    2/22- 146.9 (66.6 kg) It was almost 50 today and not raining. We went for a nice walk by the lake and did a little loop through downtown.
    2/23-146.8 (66.6 kg) Ate at maintenance today. We went for a drive and the nearby town happened to be wrapping up their winter carnival with dog keg pull races. We hadn't laughed so hard in a long time. Watching a dachshund pull an (empty) beer can down the course while the lab in the next lane had a larger (also empty) keg was great. Some dogs had so much speed they almost took out their owners with the keg, others repeatedly stopped partway down track to sniff and greet the crowd. It was a nice way to wrap up the weekend.

    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 288(my 218th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.
    So here we go again, I’m just keeping plugging away! New round, taking something forward from @Chapter_3 (yet again) if I may "We should be strategically engaged with our lives each day, right?! That’s my word… ENGAGED." " I will try to keep that word ENGAGED in my mind over these new 10 days & also remember that I am the driver of my life & not the passenger. My goal for this round is to get back to 139s. I need to be diligent as only 3-5 days per round staying on the wagon is not sufficient to get me back to where I want to be & then relaxing for the last 2/3 is not acceptable! 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 or even a piranha!
    • 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.

    SW Rnd 288 142.8
    2/20 142.8 (trend 142.5) 13.64 miles walked. Really need to make this round count.
    2/21 142 (trend 142.4) No structured walking, travelled up to spend the day with DD & 2 DGS, we visited a science theme park. On the journey up I saw an empowering quotation on the back of a van “ Life is a state of mind – strength is from within” ; it struck a cord.
    2/22 DNW - travelled up yesterday evening with DH too DSs, we are looking after DGDs whilst he & DIL have a weekend away. 8.43 miles walked.
    2/23 DNW - took DGDs to Yorkshire Sculpture Park, plenty of walking potential, but 3 year old gets tired quickly & the weekend is all about them, so total of 4 miles walked at slow pace & plenty time spent on the natural climbing/balancing play equipment 😁
    2/24 142 – (trend 142.3) No structured walking, last day taking care of DGDs, then travelled home. Half way through round. Just heard this morning on Breakfast TV "health is wealth", - motivation for next 5 days.
