Not a dumb question!
What many do is use “Notes” or “Word” and keep an ongoing journal… posting a new “post” each day (cut & paste). Some keep all their entries (a cumulative on-going post) while others post one day only. As you can see, there are many different formats!4 -

Hi everyone! My name is Crystal. I have been a member of my fitness pal for decades, but have not logged the last few years. This is all new to me and I’m trying to figure it out!
6/10- I stepped on the scale last week pleasantly surprised to see that I had dropped 34 pounds from my highest weight. 🥳 I am now down 51 pounds and counting! I am diabetic and my goal this summer is to consistently track my blood sugars and figure out how to keep it under control. I now have a continuous glucose monitor, and that is much better than pricking my finger daily. I have a huge soda habit, so my goal is to only drink one a day or less. I am trying to switch over to unsweetened iced tea and I have a 100 ounce water goal.6/11

6/10 172.4
6/11 173.0 Not bad considering dinner was cheesy bread eaten at 9:30pm. I got home from boxing late and just didn’t want to eat my pre made salad.
I also went to the fast food drive through at Wendy’s which is very rare for me. I realized I hadn’t eaten anything around 1pm and was running errands in the “big city”.
I ordered a bacon jr cheeseburger and the person said “if you get the next size up, it’s on sale, you get a bigger burger for less money”. No but thank you!! Stuck to my little baby burger. It did the trick and killed the hunger.
Now if I can do just a little better with my food choices today.6 -

6/10 traveling home today. I may not weigh tomorrow… I need a few days to hydrate & get back to routine. My brain won’t be able to handle the shock. Denial is best here. Expecting a disappointing #… need the mindset to build momentum & face the challenge!
Had time to reflect the past week. 66 is NOT 56. Many thoughts to be distilled to a few basic priorities. 🚶♀️🏋️♂️💓🤸🏼🙆♀️💦. Excited for next steps. Morning routines = no negotiation. Using June & July to regroup & love on me. Lose 5lbs & gain muscle & mobility. Key relationships have been neglected too…. Mind. Body. Soul. Whole food as fuel. Ready… set… go!
6/11 under ✅ 1200 cals, P:E = 1.4. Listened to Huberman podcasts & will change up my daily routine- should improve my sleep when implemented. He is quite technical/ scientific. A big change is coffee 90 min after waking - after morning walk. 🏋️♂️late morning. Walking 20-30 min after each meal. 80/20 rule for strength & endurance. (Any form of exercise). What I’m most pleased about is committing to a new nuance to my routine to change it up, to improve sleep & thus quality of life/ decision making (discipline!). Let’s give it a try!
ONWARD!! #discipline#mindbodysoul #HSF It’s all about mindset.

Let's do this again folks.🤩 Wishing everyone a successful round of self care.
I can barely manage simple right now. Last round I dropped water weight. Looks impressive at over 5 lbs but no fat loss.
I'm getting off a temporary medication and eating better. Hopefully by next week I can take "true" weights and measures.
Goals:
*Show Up - 10 of 10 posts including days I'll have no internet access or a scale. I'll make my usual note and post it when I can.
*Weigh daily - I'll use any scale I can find while traveling and I will call myself out if I don't do my best to find one.
*Post body composition twice - Subject to the scale; however, I'll will bring my tape measure and note changes.
Rnd 299 SW 153.4 lbs
6/10 - 153.2 lbs
Nothing can best the all water 6.2 lb decline last round. Measurements are all over the place because of boating.
Eating is getting better. If I can stay away from easy quick foods I'll regain stability and save money too. Best of all, good food tastes better.
6/11 - 154.8 lbs
Not complaining because this is a fully loaded weight: wallet, keys, jewelry on board after breakfast. Today I'm 15 lbs from my maximum weight goal.
A little progress at last. I'm kicking myself for slipping up so badly. This Winter I had under 10 lbs to go and better muscle tone.

6/19@deepwoodslady Nice drop!!
@50sforme Welcome, I see a few answers (never a dumb question) to your question. I used to keep in word or another app until the MFP update caused cut and paste havoc for me…. So my first post of the round is a long one with details under the spoiler, I copy this one from round to round and update accordingly. Subsequent post in the currnt round, I copy and paste and leave as a draft for the next day. For example, Once I complete this post, I will copy it and paste as a draft and then update it tomorrow.
@hawaiiheart44 Welcome!!! Congrats on your loss!!
@Skyleen75 ~ way to stick with the baby burger!!!
@judefit1 ~ welcome back. Sometimes you have to step away from the trees!!
@MSWDiet 👀good!!!
You can’t hate your way into a better body. You have to respect it enough to take care of it.
💜 MY MISSION STATEMENT 💜
Show up for myself daily—with strength, grace, and purpose.
Choose progress over perfection and stay the course.
Honor my body through movement, nourishment, and belief.
Each step moves me closer to my healthiest, happiest self. I
am strong. I am steady. I am unstoppable.5 -
@50sforme Welcome to the group. It's great to have you here!
@hawaiiheart44 Welcome! Thanks for joining us!
@judefit1 I see that you are challenging yourself to beat your last goal of 540 days logging in. However, here is a link where you can reset and get back to your 540 days plus on MFP. It's simple and easy if you are interested. Just thought I would throw that out there.

6/10- 167.36/11 - 166.9 - This was a bit unexpected since I woke up, looked down, and felt as if my belly grew several inches! In the mirror I didn't look overly bloated or like my stomach was larger, but from looking down it sure looked much worse. Food planned and logged, gym done. All is well!

- 6/10 - DNW
- 6/11 - 80.5kg - Difficult day yesterday, found out my fitbit hadn't been doing my heartrate for the last 2 days and so I hadn't got any extra cals for those days, which might explain why my in/out looked so marginal. And then I fixed it with an update, but then it ran out of battery and died, so I also didn't get any extra cals for yesterday either. Made poor breakfast choices (welshcakes, I love -em but they are not a healthy breakfast) but managed to not let it get away from me. Was desperate to eat all the chocolate after dinner, but settled for a single galaxy egg truffle that managed to tame the beast, so I'm counting that as a win. Had been an exhausting day somehow, so I ended up conking out in bed really early.

Day/Weight/Comment
ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 191.0
06/10- 190.4 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 192.3) A nice drop is always a plus. I’m so close to the 180’s (again) that I can almost taste it. I’ve been doing pretty well since the beginning of May in both my start weight and my trend weights. I’ve had a few missteps with my birthday, Mother’s Day and Memorial Day Weekend being in May. I’ve also had a bit of off and on travel days. However, I’ve managed to reign it back in each time and the progress is slowly coming. I’m still working on being consistent with those good habits that I need to focus on including water and intentional exercise. Now that my major primary bedroom renovation is done and my projects will be small and shorter for awhile, I am hoping the privacy it affords in my home will allow me to focus better on diet, prep cooking and exercise right in my living room! Tonight I will cook a “regular” meal of “non-diet” foods. It’s time to make something nice and have dinner with my son. So tonight will be all about portion control not necessarily about content. Good Luck this round everyone. I love reading your posts!
🏊♀️🏊♀️🏊♀️🏊♀️🏊♀️06/11 – 191.2 ❌ (Trend Weight – 192.2) Well, there’s that “non-diet” dinner I cooked last night showing up without any hesitation whatsoever. However, it was only 1226 calories but 21 carbs over goal. So it actually wasn’t too bad and I'm proud that I kept it within reason with portion control. Dinner was very late as I was still outside working on raking and burning storm damage. Ate at 9:30 pm so that may be a factor. Eating late, however, really curbed the snack monster. I’ll be positive and hope that I just shook things up like a wet pillowcase in the laundry basket as I prep it to hang on the clothesline out back. Shaking it out…..Yea, maybe it will straighten things out. Even my body may need a new perspective from time to time. Happy Hump Day Everyone!

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 299
June 10 - 19, 2025
SW: 127.0
6/10 – 127.2 This number implies that MAYBE somehow yesterday was real. Ending up doing a “feeding” day yesterday. Woke before 6 to hydrate for lab work. Got to the lab at 6:45 expecting a line, only to find out they open at 7:30. But hey, I was first in line, but no coat in the cold for 45 minutes. :P Ran nearby errands before heading home, so was uber hungry. Ate like 2/3 of my daily calories by noon, and did lots on Caramel cold brew M&M’s in the evening. Felt good to actually not be hungry in the evening. Tracked everything, and was 800+ cal over my deficit target number. Not sure what maintenance my number is, but it is higher than deficit (yes, I can figure that out :) ), so mathematical principles would say my surplus calories are some number less than 800 cal. Yes, I’m rambling this morning …….Most lab work came in. Was hoping for a little better. We’ll see what comes.
6/11- 128.8 Perfect day until 8 pm, then I went off the wall. Oh well. It is now 7:30 at night when I am finally posting. Today, so far, day was “good enough”. Hopefully the scale in the morning will show I have not done the full 1.8 lb damage shown on my scale this am.

Hi everyone! My name is Crystal. I have been a member of my fitness pal for decades, but have not logged the last few years. This is all new to me and I’m trying to figure it out!
6/10- I stepped on the scale last week pleasantly surprised to see that I had dropped 34 pounds from my highest weight. 🥳 I am now down 51 pounds and counting! I am diabetic and my goal this summer is to consistently track my blood sugars and figure out how to keep it under control. I now have a continuous glucose monitor, and that is much better than pricking my finger daily. I have a huge soda habit, so my goal is to only drink one a day or less. I am trying to switch over to unsweetened iced tea and I have a 100 ounce water goal.6/11- Great day! It’s hard work but I am ready for the challenge. Doing good on mimimizing the soda!! 🥳🥳 I even survived taking my son through the drive thru but told him this has to stop for awhile. I’m removing as many temptations as logically possible! Pot roast for dinner. Less mashed potatoes, no corn and no dinner rolls this time! This can work! Great job everyone and thank you for welcoming me! 🙂

It has been a long time and I always loved these threads! Glad to see it's still going. I weigh wearing clothes, so daily weight will be a little all over the place but I'm aiming for trend down!
A little bit about me: I'm 33 years old, female, 160cm (5ft 2.5in) tall. I have a 2yo son who is so full of energy and keeps me eternally busy! I generally keep fit doing judo (although I have injured my knee right now). I have crohns and am currently working with my IBD team to try and get myself into remission (inflammation markers are down, but they are tweaking the medication to hopefully get it even lower).
SW: 81.2kg GW: 70kg UGW: 62kg
Round 299 SW: 80.5kg TW: 80.4kg6/10 - DNW
6/11 - 80.5kg - Difficult day yesterday, found out my fitbit hadn't been doing my heartrate for the last 2 days and so I hadn't got any extra cals for those days, which might explain why my in/out looked so marginal. And then I fixed it with an update, but then it ran out of battery and died, so I also didn't get any extra cals for yesterday either. Made poor breakfast choices (welshcakes, I love -em but they are not a healthy breakfast) but managed to not let it get away from me. Was desperate to eat all the chocolate after dinner, but settled for a single galaxy egg truffle that managed to tame the beast, so I'm counting that as a win. Had been an exhausting day somehow, so I ended up conking out in bed really early.
6/12 - 80.7kg - Woke up with pain in my neck, like I'd pulled a muscle or something (a recurring problem), so took it fairly easy yesterday. Did a yoga stretching routine and managed to roll away most of the pain. Didn't eat overly badly, but did have a glass of wine with lunch which was some pretty empty calories, but I'm not going to lie, I really enjoyed that glass of wine. Luckily, even though I was WFH I kept pretty active and so only ended up 12kcals over the target. NSV was putting some of my dinner into a tub because I was full!

6/10 traveling home today. I may not weigh tomorrow… I need a few days to hydrate & get back to routine. My brain won’t be able to handle the shock. Denial is best here. Expecting a disappointing #… need the mindset to build momentum & face the challenge!
Had time to reflect the past week. 66 is NOT 56. Many thoughts to be distilled to a few basic priorities. 🚶♀️🏋️♂️💓🤸🏼🙆♀️💦. Excited for next steps. Morning routines = no negotiation. Using June & July to regroup & love on me. Lose 5lbs & gain muscle & mobility. Key relationships have been neglected too…. Mind. Body. Soul. Whole food as fuel. Ready… set… go!
6/11 under ✅ 1200 cals, P:E = 1.4. Listened to Huberman podcasts & will change up my daily routine- should improve my sleep when implemented. He is quite technical/ scientific. A big change is coffee 90 min after waking - after morning walk. 🏋️♂️late morning. Walking 20-30 min after each meal. 80/20 rule for strength & endurance. (Any form of exercise). What I’m most pleased about is committing to a new nuance to my routine to change it up, to improve sleep & thus quality of life/ decision making (discipline!). Let’s give it a try!
6/12 ⚖️ 132.8lbs. I can live with that- I guess. Push forward! cals <1200. PE= 1:1; 🥩120g. Really solid day yesterday! Thinking more bloat may drop today. I’m wearing the “weightloss” mindset.
ONWARD!! #discipline#mindbodysoul #HSF
It’s all about mindset!

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 299
June 10 - 19, 2025
SW: 127.0
6/10 – 127.2 This number implies that MAYBE somehow yesterday was real. Ending up doing a “feeding” day yesterday. Woke before 6 to hydrate for lab work. Got to the lab at 6:45 expecting a line, only to find out they open at 7:30. But hey, I was first in line, but no coat in the cold for 45 minutes. :P Ran nearby errands before heading home, so was uber hungry. Ate like 2/3 of my daily calories by noon, and did lots on Caramel cold brew M&M’s in the evening. Felt good to actually not be hungry in the evening. Tracked everything, and was 800+ cal over my deficit target number. Not sure what maintenance my number is, but it is higher than deficit (yes, I can figure that out :) ), so mathematical principles would say my surplus calories are some number less than 800 cal. Yes, I’m rambling this morning …….Most lab work came in. Was hoping for a little better. We’ll see what comes.
6/11- 128.8 Perfect day until 8 pm, then I went off the wall. Oh well. It is now 7:30 at night when I am finally posting. Today, so far, day was “good enough”. Hopefully the scale in the morning will show I have not done a full 1.8 lb damage I saw on the scale this morning.
6/12 – 129.8 Three days in a row. Posted at 7:30 last night, and all was fine, then I did another bad evening. Gotta sort this out. I really did not want to step on the scale this morning because I knew what was coming, but avoiding the scale is the start of a snowball for me. Today will be good. Period. Call me out tomorrow if I report differently!!!

@deepwoodslady : Thank you for that! The "reset" to 1 was a rude awakening that I will definitely remember and use, but since I only missed one login, I'll try the link. If it happens again, shame on me and I'll start over!

6/19:6/13: Strong start to this round- I've resisted the post-dinner snacking; no wine and I've logged my food for the last couple days. What I did yesterday was pre-log and then changed things when I had something different; that made me conscious of going back in and fixing it- and also kept me from eating too much. I feel like this time I'll stay on plan, let's see….
And thanks again to @deepwoodslady for helping me "restore" my streak, just this once!

6/10- 167.36/11 - 166.9
6/12 - 166.8 - Little baby decreases are always lovely to see, even if they're so insignificant in the day to day (natural fluctuations). It gives me hope, at least, that I'm not completely falling off track. Tomorrow will be a bit up in the air with BF getting his broken tooth fixed/extracted. I just asked him his thoughts on food for tomorrow and Saturday so I can get my grocery list figured out. I have one more dinner to figure out for next week and from there I can then determine a lunch for myself. Sunday's dinner is accounted for, though I need to log it still. No rush, I'm content if I simply hit a deficit on weekends, even if macros aren't perfect. Especially true since it's Father's day and BF has his tooth concern - it's definitely his weekend. His birthday is Wednesday next week, too, so it's all about him!
