    🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4, Round 294 (my 224th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.

    Goals for every 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.

    EW RND 293 – 140.6

    SW RND 294 –

    4/21 DNW – yesterday we rode the motorbike to Sheffield on the annual Easter Egg run to raise funds for the children’s hospital; our youngest DGS received treatment in there as a 6 month old before his liver transplant, so the charity is dear to our hearts. We do it together with our DS, but this year was a little different, instead of our DIL riding pillion with him, his oldest DD,(aged 6 ½) rode with him now that her legs are long enough to reach the footrests. She was so excited! Three generations took part this year! A total of 827 bikes turned out! Not heard yet how much money was raised.

    4/22 140.8 (trend 140.4) No structured waking; travelled back home.

    4/23 141.8 (trend 140.4) 9.33 miles walked.

    4/24 141.8 (trend 140.7) 3.6 miles walked, with little DGD (3), after a craft morning at her local library we took a picnic up to the peaks. She loves to step up & across the rocks up there. Update on the Easter egg run; it raised £68,000.

    4/25 141.8 (trend 140.9) 8.89 miles walked, must stop indulging in the Easter chocolate today.

    4/26 DNW - came away for a weekend to Bridgnorth. 9.07 miles walked, resisted the Easter chocolate until 2.00pm 😕 , then.... Left it all at home & only brought healthy food & 0% alcohol with us! So glad MFP behaved to allow me to post this second attempt 🤔

    4/27 DNW - 9.27 miles walked.

    4/28

    4/29

    4/30

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE & I AM WHAT I EAT!!!!! 👍👍.

    Male: 67
    6’-2”
    OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016.) I was actually at 250 in 2011 or so…
    OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
    Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

    Simple Goal for this round: Have some dignity for crying out loud! I have some events happening in the next six months and I want my clothes to fit better.

    Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed. (Calories-In yesterday)/ Comment

    4/20/25 : 228.2 SW a day before.

    4/21: 230.0 (feast)
    I expected to go up, but this actually surprised me a bit. Maybe it will slap me in the face and wake me up.

    Having said that I need to give myself a bit of grace. We had our traditional comfort Easter foods yesterday with candy mixed in all day. DS brought cheesy potatoes, green been casserole, and home-made baklava. I smoked a spiral cut ham (with maple syrup brushed between each flap with a sprinkled salty dry rub) and we had a few other sides. Sugar cookies for desert.

    I am “out of the woods” for a bit here and can concentrate on making some real progress. I will start logging again. Might take a day or so to “detox.”

    4/22: 229.0 (1784 CI)
    We are officially in the “mow twice a week” phase of lawn care. So that is a guarantee of at least some movement. I should get a bike ride in this afternoon too, if the weather holds.

    Yesterday I had my teeth scanned for the purpose of making a custom fitted “night guard.” I am a teeth clencher/grinder at night which is bad for the teeth and TMJ. In the old days they would make a plaster cast of your teeth. It was awful. I am sure some of you have had that experience. Now they just wave a little wand around inside your mouth and voila! A digital model of your teeth shows up on the screen, in color.

    Now if I could just floss digitally! 😊

    4/23: 226.8 (1905 CI)
    I don’t know what I did to deserve this drop.

    Yesterday’s exercise was to go morel mushroom hunting with DS and DGS. We found one lonely mushroom about 5 minutes before it poured rain. But we kept hunting just like we didn’t care. If nothing else, it was a good memory for DGS to put in his mind. The world offers too much crud trying to crowd out what is really important… real experiences with real people.

    4/24: 227.6 (1706 CI)
    Really good exercise day. Spinning class kicked my rear end. And Cubs won 4th out of 7 games for the year against the Dodgers. (my brother-in-law is a staunch Dodger fan, which makes this extra sweet)

    4/25: 227.4 (1979 CI)
    Very nice day so I had an 18mi bike ride with a friend. Seemed like we were riding against the wind, both riding out and coming back. HA! (no, it wasn’t uphill both ways.)

    I had about 500 unnecessary Calories-In yesterday. My trend weight is really messed up by the indiscretions of Easter weekend.

    4/26: 227.4 (1974 CI)
    I had a brief meeting with a friend (HS classmate) yesterday at his studio. He will be my Rotary program in a few weeks. He is an “automotive graphic arts designer.” In the simplest of terms he is a pin-striper, but he is much more. He can paint just about any image on your hood, fender or tailgate.

    4/27: 228.2 (?)
    I did not log my CI. It wasn’t pretty because we went out with another couple last night and I didn’t give my fitness a second thought.

    @AR10at50 how old is that beauty?

    @Chapter_3 🙃 thanks for the warning.

    SW RND 294 132.0

    4/21   132.5  A good day with granddaughter #2 yesterday. We went over to the pool. I have the beginning of a tan. Steak and broccoli for non-traditional Easter meal. 

    4/22  133.0  Dinner with fam last night at In-n-Out. We wanted Yonutz for dessert but the area location is permanently closed. Went to see the  Conservatory and fountains at Bellagio.  Taking granddaughter to Juan’s Flaming Fajitas for lunch today

    4/23   132.5  DGD#2 flies home to KC at noon. It’s been a good visit. No extreme activities. I behaved myself food wise except for chips at Mexican restaurant yesterday but even then, I didn’t go crazy.

    4/24   133.0 I ate one meal yesterday which included some of my sourdough bread. Considering all of the eating out (and no TMI) since Saturday, I’m okay with this.

    4/25   133.5  Had 1/2# Jesse Rae’s BBQ burnt ends, 3 waffle fries, 2T house made sauce (HOT - YUM!) That is everything I ate yesterday! 

    4/26   133.5  Community French toast breakfast this morning. DH says he’s tired of everyone and he’s not going. Still waiting for TMI

    4/27   134.0  We both went to the breakfast yesterday and we probably BOTH should have skipped!

    @Chapter_3 - been there, done that, and I'm with you! I didn't like the out of control feeling at all. Hope you are feeling back to normal.”
