    @_JeffreyD_ If you know the restaurant, check out the menu online (if you can) and pre-track. Most of the time, that works out well for me. Better than me deciding once I am seated with a menu in hand.

    Gym: skip

    Wins: have been MIA a little bit from this challenge but I’m finally coming back to my normal routine and feeling better. 

    Challenges: puppy’s surgery finally happened and he is home now so it’s been hectic. The Girl Scout cookies are gonna and miraculously my days have been going better. 

    Does anyone know the update for how to write spoilers now? I can see you can add them from the rich text editor but I usually just copy paste from my notes. 

    I didn’t even mark this comment as a spoiler but it won’t let me undo that.

    It's going to be tough to get much exercise today. All of my exercise is outdoors and in New Mexico that isn't usually a problem, except in the Spring. The wind was so bad this morning that I cut my dog's walk short (and she didn't even mind), and its only supposed to get worse as the day goes on. I suppose I could stay inside this evening and do a strength training video. I need to add strength training to my routine anyway.

    @astroamy You must be getting the winds we’ve had the last few days. High wind warnings have been many this spring. Stay safe!

    Female 5’1” Age 75 years 

    HWE 197.0 (2/2008)

    Weight on 1/17/17 174.5

    OGW 137 (set by WW 2008, WW goal 1985 was 126) UGW was 125 (HS weight)

    1/1/25  139.5

    Comments pertain to previous day

    SW RND 290  135.0
    3/12 135.0 Yesterday did 40 minutes at the gym OMAD - In-n-Out - 4 or 5 small super crisp fries (YUM!) and a Double Double Protein style, no spread, light lettuce and onion. No TMI x 2

    3/13  136.0  Yesterday we had 2 guys from the ‘hood put up ceiling fans with lights.  My sewing room previously had no light so I’m hoping this will breathe new life into my sewing spirit. In the afternoon I took the batteries for my Vivofit 4 to the jeweler (microscopic screws - worth having him do it) and then got a manicure. I had a headache and skipped the board meeting. Apologies for the longish post - this is my diary.

    3/14  135.5 DH and neighbor guy went to Golden Corral for lun-ner. I had a beef patty (Sam’s) and a serving of broccoli with butter. If my dad was still around, this would be his 120th birthday. Hard to believe he’s been gone 32 years.

    3/12 - 158.6

    3/13 - 157.7

    3/14 - 158.1

    🦅The scale went back up, but I've been cycling and walking multiple hours each day - and can really feel it in the muscles. Keeping focused on the fact that muscle is building (which will increase weight initially) and that habits are forming. I found a hawk feather on my walk yesterday, which is a sign of "strength, far-sightedness, and the ability to rise above challenges" - what an incredible omen for starting out this journey. Happy Friday everyone! 💫

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 194.6

    03/12-193.6- (Trend Weight): 195.9-

    03/13-193.8- (Trend Weight): 195.7- Just a normal fluctuation today. Yesterday was a good day with everything in place. Going for another one today. I got a new computer installed yesterday along with new monitor and extras. Suddenly much of my information from the past week was missing from my word documents I use for MFP. Frustrating that it had to happen during the new MFP formatting on top of it all. I’m chasing down my numbers by reading backwards on my previous posts for the past 7 days. Ugh! I do want to keep a record of the numbers! We are experiencing unseasonable temps in my neck of the woods lately. Perhaps spring is really just around the corner. We usually get our last fleeting snow in May every year. The weather really lifts the spirits!

    🍀🍀🍀 03/14-192.6- (Trend Weight): 195.4)- Very early weigh-in just 4 hours after going to bed. I usually don’t weigh on Fridays because of my weird time and medication schedule. (One med requires a full glass of water). However, curiosity got the best of me so I hopped on before the med, albeit very early in the morn. A nice little surprise to find a drop today. I thought maybe I’d be up with less natural night time fasting but also with my dinner last night. I cooked a “normal” non-diet focused meal for DS, DGS, DD and myself . I watched the portions carefully. It was good wholesome foods. I’m feeling in control these past couple of days. I hope it stays that way. There is nothing standing in my way but me. I have a travel day on Monday but from now until then it should be smooth sailing. Stay with it Donna! T-Minus 3.2 lbs with 6.8 lbs to go to my May 10th goal.

But every time I post I have to reformat my text, and it takes too long… Does anyone know- Is there any way to post with single spacing?

    Anyway, on the good side I'm making a little progress in the right direction…

    3/12 - 167.6 - Dropped off a bit more of the weekend and that may be the last of it. I've been doing really well this week with macros with the help of some volume eating that has left room for snacks. Having the ability to have a balanced snack when I'm feeling peckish rather than trying to wait until my next meal and losing control (and thus binging) has been a game-changer. I'm hoping I can upkeep this through travel, though I don't dare put too much hope into it given the lack of choices I'll have and eating something outside my goals is better than starving.

    3/13 - 168.1 - Well that was unexpected. I'm not entirely sure what caused this but I was within my macro goal on the app. Oh well, bodies are funny like that. Maybe it's DOMS? Maybe it's sodium? Hopefully it'll drop off soon. I do feel rather bloated today so I know that the increase is "false" in that regards. On track today - did my workout and have all my meals and snacks planned. I have a few extra carbs leftover to meet my +/-10g goal but protein and fat are on target for the day so that is easy. Feeling much better this week with the cut and my satiety levels. Glad I'm settling in better and faster than expected. Now to just get my weekends under control a bit better. I've done it before I can do it again!

    3/14 - DNW - Went out unexpectedly last night for dinner because it was so nice out and neither of us like the meal that I had prepped for the week (and it was our only other dinner option). It's okay. Tonight we're doing date night I'm guessing since we didn't plan a dinner and nothing is thawed. I guessed we'd go to our favorite date night spot and pre-logged what sounded good and balanced then ate a lunch around that to get as close as possible to goals. I did not manage that last night at all and want to set myself up for a solid weekend before I'll be eating on the go while traveling next week.

    Starting this round on a mini break in Rome, Thanks @quiltingjaine for keeping us going.

    SW 289 141.8

    3/12 DNW - a hectic 1st full day in Rome, it really to walk across to Vatican City, a tour of St. Peter's Basilica including a climb up 550 steps to the top of the dome. In the afternoon we visited the Cistern Chapel & Vatican museums. A mind blowing day with the grandeur & amazing paintings. A tiring but satisfying 15.5 miles, 36.5K steps.

    3/13 DNW - 9.76 miles walked, a less hectic day, the Colosseum in the morning followed by a rainy afternoon on & around Palatino Hill.

    3/14 DNW - a very leisurely 14.56 miles walked yesterday, taking in The Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Victor Emmanuel monument, S. Pietro in Vincoli, Piazza Navona, Santa Maria Maggiore, Circus Maximus, a stroll along the river and the last gaze at the Colosseum. An amazing last day. No gelato; it was not warm enough! But luckily it stayed dry 😁.

    3/15 140.4 - (trend 141) wow! never returned from a holiday with a loss ever before!! Now to keep it.

    3/12  152  Carbs are not my friend! Was able to get in a good walk yesterday, though, which felt good. 8,145 steps. 📝 👣 

    3/13  150.4 Spent the day in the Smoky Mountains (my happy place) with hubby and DGD. Had a picnic and got in a little trail walking. Food was much more in control yesterday, and it shows. Hit my protein goal for the first time in a while and carbs were within range.  11,572 steps. 📝 👣 🌟🥩

    3/14  151.2 Not enough protein yesterday and too much salt. Took both grandkids to the zoo, so got in lots of activity although no real exercise. 10,366 steps. 📝 👣 🌟

    3/15  152.2  Up way too early today. Worked in my gardens all day long yesterday expanding flower beds, amending soil, etc. so got in my 10k steps and strength training in my yard. Very high protein day and carbs were well within range, so this uptick is a surprise.  10,676 steps. 📝 🥩 🏋🏼‍♀️ 🌟

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 290
    March 12 – 21, 2025

    SW: 135.6

    3/12 – 135.6 Well I did not finish round 289 with the number that I wanted, though I saw it for two days prior. Then I did my mini binge (worthy ½ lb max) with lots of salt. Was hoping to come down quickly yesterday, but last night was out to eat. Calories (according to my tracking) were excellent. I am hoping/thinking I am still fighting with sodium. Today’s new variable will be that I am back to the gym and next session with the trainer. Was unable to find any of that “me” time during our family time together, but totally worth the trade off. My hope for this round is to clear the sodium, keep calories on track, be consistent with exercise, and I am hoping to not only get back to the 134.6, but to pass it and MAYBE see a “3” instead of that “4”. Let’s see.

    3/13 – 135.0  Five mile walk, and hour with personal trainer. I discussed with her how I think I am jumping in too quickly and risking injury, based on all the pains I am having. At the end, we shortened our time to do stretching. Wow! We discovered I have some real tightness issues. Interestingly, when I got home, some of those pains were gone. The stretching is key. Feeling some aches return this morning, so I likely should try some stretching today. 

    3/14 – 134.6 Yay! Back to my number from the 10th and 11th. Now to continue. I was good with diary yesterday, but chose to skip my morning walk (still have not gotten condo back together since guests) and was not a gym day. Today, I hope/plan to accomplish both. Hubby has been taken kite fishing for sailfish today, THEN we are heading to hear a band in the evening. Probably means I am facing a cocktail (will stick to my gin and tonic, or a white wine), and food (likely stick with my seared tuna tataki safety net). Need to keep this in mind for the first part of the day.

    3/15 – 134.4 Made it through the day yesterday! Walk got altered and ended up only 4 miles, but it was a fun walk. Got home and was to go to the gym, but decided to deal with cancelation of utilities on my mother’s property that is being sold on Tuesday. Glad I did as it was more time consuming than I expected and really had to happen before the weekend. I pretracked my evening, and used my calories accordingly during the day. IN the evening, my gin and tonic became an on-the-rocks margarita, which I only drank half due to its size. I had my tuna. Appetizers somehow got ordered for the table. I ate two shrimp and one cheese curd to be social. Seems to have worked out! Today has the potential for being normal!

    @musicsax: I was able to come back from italy less than I went as well- says something for Italian food (and serving sizes!) Your photos are fantastic, and this is definitely the time of year to go- no crowds!

    @SModa61 Good idea. I had it pre-tracked in my mind but the special caught my eye.

    @_JeffreyD_ I hope it was delicious. My pre-tracking last night came close to actual (traded gin and tonic for half a large classic margarita).

    Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed. / Comment

    3/11/25 : 229.8 SW a day before.

    3/12: 229.4
    Dropped some weight even with some little failures along the way yesterday. I do remember specifically making some wise decisions when faced with a dilemma. What was the dilemma? (A.) Do I want to do that because I LOVE it and it would make me feel good right now from head to toe? Or (B.) Do I say no to it so I will feel better later from head to toe in a much better way?

    Just think what I (we) could do with FULL discipline for delayed gratification. It’s hard.

    3/13: 228.8
    Cautiously optimistic. I was better about choosing fruit and veggies yesterday.

    I just saw the email preview of today’s Rotary menu. Chicken Alfredo and bread sticks. Give me a break! Right now I am pre-logging the lettuce salad ONLY with no pasta and no dessert.

    3/14: 229.4
    I avoided the Alfredo at Rotary! And they had steamed broccoli and cauliflower. Had a couple snaccidents at home, but no biggies. The weather is so fantastic I took a 16+ mile bike ride. I am surprised how good the workout is on an eBike. No matter how much help I get, I can still push it til it hurts. Wind and hills still make a difference. I make a big sail in the wind. HA!

    Today’s challenge will be supper tonight. DW’s cousin coming for the weekend, not so much to see us but to have a place to stay while visiting her dad in the nursing home. (their farmstead is sold.) She is “repaying” us by taking us out for dinner tonight. Must. Avoid. The. French. Fries!

    3/15: 230.4
    Even though this is a bump up, I consider yesterday a victory overall. I rode 20+ miles on bike and took a bit of a strenuous hike later with DS and DGS in the woods. (we were kind lost for a while…exciting) The gain was because of eating. DS brought a between-meal snack to the hike and the restaurant last night had a special. Smoked Corned Beef and Cabbage. Had to try it.
