🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 307 (my 237th).
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
- an additional goal for me (again) this round is to have a totally 10-day binge free round.
Sooooh, 9 days we fly out for our annual holiday; in that time, I should be able to lose 2 pounds, so that is my personal challenge, I want to be in the 140's by then. I can do it if I use my will power.
I need to remain consistent - it does work! I aim to lose 2 pounds. Good luck for success everyone.
SW Rnd 307 142.6 (yesterday's end of round number)
8/29 DNW - away for the week in the caravan in the Derbyshire Dales, aim to "behave myself!!" 6.44 miles walked yesterday after we arrived.

8/30: 144.4. I'm not surprised at the jump. I did some carb loading yesterday to prepare for a long run I'm going to do this morning. I'm going to attempt a 12 mile run again.
Yesterday was a rest day from running, and I also didn't have time for my morning walk. My steps were only about 4,000 by evening, so I walked on the treadmill to get 10,000.

NSG (tracked for prior day)
🏃🏻♀️ movement - 7/10 days
🚫 no alcohol - 7/10 daysSW Rnd 307- 130.8
RGW: 129.28/29 - 130.8 🏃🏻♀️ After my spiel about alcohol yesterday I drank probably half a bottle of wine last night with dinner (troublesome when I use it in a recipe and cook with wine in 2 ways) and I couldn’t sleep until 2am. This morning I subbed as a paraprofessional for a nonverbal autistic 3 year old (I am not trained to do this AT ALL) and I am just completely wiped. Going to try to do my assigned run this afternoon but also not going to stress about it. Very glad tomorrow is a rest day. I think we’re going hiking but at least that’s easy at our family pace.
8/30 - 130.4 🏃🏻♀️🚫 I made amazing homemade pizzas last night! Certainly not diet food but my family absolutely raved. My 6yo said it was the best food he’d had in his life. I squeezed a treadmill run in yesterday afternoon while the 4yo had a friend over. Slightly interrupted by tattling and whining but better than nothing. I had a good NSV last night: we had friends over that DH and I consider our drinking buddies and I fully abstained from drinking. I had a hop water, an NA beer, and a seltzer instead while we chatted by the fire. Zero fun lost and zero sleep lost!

FOR NEWBIES- I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all the posts.SW Rnd 307

Yesterday was a day of reckless abandonment. I lived my life like someone else was in charge of my physical wellbeing. I logged it all and it reads like an episode of “Dateline.” I can hear the grey haired Keith Morrison saying, “he SAID he was interested in taking care of his body,…. but what really happened on that beautiful afternoon on August 28th of 2025?”
Whenever DW and I have a friendly argument, one of us might say “You better call Dateline.”8/30: 221.0
✏️☣️🎯💓
Mediocre day. Met all my goals with flying shades of grey, rather than “with flying colors” My exercise class met for the monthly lunch at the Pizza Ranch, where we undo all we have done. I managed my food for the rest of the day to meet goals.8/31

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 307
August 29 – Sept 7, 202563 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress loss of 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress gain)
SW MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6GW Maintaining between 124 – 126
SW: 126.2
8/29 – 127.4 solidly confused. Yesterday’s scale fight made no sense, and it returned again this morning. Not fighting with it. Will continue as is and see what the number is when I can next weigh on my home scale (same brand, same model and they always align) next Wednesday. Yesterday was slightly over target, but again in maintenance range. So a notable gain is not in the cards. There was a lot of salt yesterday, including fully tracked restaurant dining in the evening. Dining out again today. The ride continues…..
8/30 – 126.6 confused in a different way. Last night was another night out and I actually ordered an entrée (was fabulous!). I expected a possible up, not a drop. Next few days are normal life, so hopefully I will figure out where I am at.

Struggling with MFP at the moment, it's doing strange thing; refusing to post (been trying all day to send the above?), copying a while page instead of my own post/quote. I'm getting quite exasperated with it!!

8/29: 182.1 🥺I’m +2.1 from the end of Rnd 306, and I knew that was going to happen after having lunch at our local Asian restaurant. I ordered Lettuce Wraps because I thought they would be light. 🤣Of course, I also got to have Crab Rangoon, bc this restaurant actually has the GF. Then we came home and I had nothing to make for dinner with the wedding weekend beginning today. So I ate my lunch leftovers for dinner. Double whammy!
8/30: 183.1 🤨I expected this and almost didn’t weigh. However, I’m glad I did so that I keep this in mind at the wedding today. Last night was food that we normally don’t eat: BBQ brisket, pulled pork, baked beans, cheesy potatoes…ugh! (No bun since they didn’t have GF.) When I started entering the food in MFP on the way home, I understood why we always eat chicken or fish! I mean, 190 cal for a thin slice of brisket!!! 😳I only had one drink, so that’s cool. In the past, I would have had 2-3 total. Also, not much water since a bathroom was not always handy. After the wedding today, I think we’ll need a week of salads to recover from this. 😭
@itladyee Love the quote!!!
@SModa61 Thank you! I think it’s going to be a good day…even tho DH is projecting doom and gloom. 🤣🤣🤣
That Pizza Ranch comment…hilarious…and so true. Reminds me of WW days and stopping off for ice cream or something after weighing in.

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 185.6
08/29-183.2 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 185.1) No TMI x 2 but still a nice sodium fueled water whoosh from the Thai food the other day. Goodbye to that! It’s a 4 day Holiday weekend in the U.S. I must be very careful not to let it get out of hand. I have one day of some pretty distant medical travel next week and that’s enough on my plate, so to speak. Good luck this round everyone! We have 10 days to make that dent!
⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️08/30-182.2 ✅ (Trend Weight – 184.8) A nice little drop after finally getting some potty resolution. My calories have been a bit low the last couple of days. I need to make sure I get closer to goal today. I had to use the heat in the house the last couple of nights. Days have been low 70’s and nights have been low 40’s with frost warnings last night. Tonight’s temp is expected to be 40 degrees. Yikes, in August? Hello heat bills.

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 307
August 29 – Sept 7, 202563 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress loss of 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress gain)
SW MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6GW Maintaining between 124 – 126
SW: 126.2
8/29 – 127.4 solidly confused. Yesterday’s scale fight made no sense, and it returned again this morning. Not fighting with it. Will continue as is and see what the number is when I can next weigh on my home scale (same brand, same model and they always align) next Wednesday. Yesterday was slightly over target, but again in maintenance range. So a notable gain is not in the cards. There was a lot of salt yesterday, including fully tracked restaurant dining in the evening. Dining out again today. The ride continues…..
8/30 – 126.6 confused in a different way. Last night was another night out and I actually ordered an entrée (was fabulous!). I expected a possible up, not a drop. Next few days are normal life, so hopefully I will figure out where I am at.
9/31 – 125.8 I have forgiven my Maine scale for making me crazy. Last saw this number briefly Feb, 2024. Going to get some activity today. Still TBD, but will be something!

Yesterday was a day of reckless abandonment. I lived my life like someone else was in charge of my physical wellbeing. I logged it all and it reads like an episode of “Dateline.” I can hear the grey haired Keith Morrison saying, “he SAID he was interested in taking care of his body,…. but what really happened on that beautiful afternoon on August 28th of 2025?”
Whenever DW and I have a friendly argument, one of us might say “You better call Dateline.”8/30: 221.0
✏️☣️🎯💓
Mediocre day. Met all my goals with flying shades of grey, rather than “with flying colors” My exercise class met for the monthly lunch at the Pizza Ranch, where we undo all we have done. I managed my food for the rest of the day to meet goals.8/31: 221.8
✏️🎯💓
Did not meet my UPF yesterday. I had a hotdog bun, some crackers and a Fannie May butter cream candy. Also, some adult beverages. For the indiscretions above, my food log holds the following:Cals
Protein
Fat
Carbs
891
6.2
7.9
75.3
I did hit the net cal target, but I need to find a way to eliminate allowing CO to zero out UPF style CI.
Today is an eating day with friends and relatives. DW is making peach pie. It will be tough to find exercise time.

8/31 176.0 I need to put in more effort if I want this number to go back down. Yesterday we went to a Korean street food festival, I have no idea what I ate! Both calorically and literally.
No formal exercise but lots of walking. I’m heading out for Sunday Funday workout with the ladies and I’m hoping to do a day of gardening at home before an evening boat ride.5 -
FOR NEWBIES- I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all the posts.SW Rnd 307
