    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 309
    Sept 18 -27, 2025

    63 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  – 146.6

    GW Maintaining between 124 – 126 

    SW: 127.6

    9/18 – 127.8 I will get myself together. Excuses include “after wedding” Monday. Tues spent 4 hours trying to help acclimate new private aid for mom, who then quit and snuck off the job two hours before her end time. Wed working on aftermath, and today, back to maine to clean everything there and close it down. I distract easily. 

    We are going out to eat tonight, but I know the restaurant and menu.

    9/19 – 127.2 Just mildly better than past few days.

    9/20 – 128.0 Now that was cruel. :P I finally did a great day. First since last weekend. I will say though that over the years I have seen that “day after pasta” day often shows an up. Yes, we had pasta last night, but I tracked it thoroughly.

    9/21 – 128.6 another up without reason. Going to just let this play out. It will sort and stabilize soon and I’ll know where I am out. Looking to get back 126 or below before November.

    9/22 – 127.4 I think this could be a realistic number for my behavior this week (1.6 lb gain from last weekend which would mean about 5600 calories over for the week). Yesterday was not awful, but I did not accurately track. I don’t have the groceries in the house to support better choices, and I think this is going to continue a few more days until I can get a reset.

    9/23 – 128.8 Yup, it continues

    9/24 – 128.0 So yesterday, I tracked, and also resisted the compelling urge to binge (was eyeing those chocolate chips!!)

    9/25 – DNW rare day that I decided to not face the scale. It’s now past 5:30 PM though and today has been good. Will check the scale in the am.

    9/26 – 129.0 Definitely disappointing, but I’ve earned it this round. Hopefully tomorrow’s number will be slightly better to end this round.

    9/18: 180.0 😊Well, this was my goal for yesterday. 🤣Lunch out with the fam, then tap class.💃

    9/19 180.4 🤨Not really sure why there was an increase with as much activity as I had yesterday??? In addition, I had a surplus of calories. So frustrating! But I’m not giving up. Went for a short walk this morning and practiced tap. Then went to an art fair and walked around all evening. Lots of activity again. We’ll see tomorrow.

    9/20: 181.3 😔Late night eating and drinking. Today I have a bridal shower and then another outing with friends this evening. Sadly, I’m not expecting tomorrow to be any better.

    9/21: 180.4 😊Well, this is a step in the right direction. I didn’t eat anything at the bridal shower because there was essentially nothing gluten free for me to eat. Plus, the food that was there was intermingled with crackers that I could not have. I can’t explain the hurt and feelings of betrayal considering that this was a shower for a future family member. I really didn’t think I needed to say on the invitation that I’m celiac. Whatever. I’ve decided that my future RSVPs will say that I will be happy to attend if my food safety is protected. Yes, I could take a separate meal for myself, but that is just weird. While I was standing there looking at the food wondering what on earth here is safe, the bride-to-be flippantly said to me, “Sorry, I don’t know what is gluten free here.” So sorry for my rant. 

    On a positive note, I went to an event full of food trucks (about 15 of them) and figured that I wouldn’t find anything I could eat…but I DID!!! I was so happy! We had a good time. Nice to end on a positive note.

    9/22: 179.3 🎉I am happy, but not getting attached. However, motivation is high today! Yesterday, we had lasagna that I made last winter…in the freezer, of course. I entered the recipe in MFP and was a little mind-blown.🤯I mean, I knew it would be a lot, but…wow! Okay, so I cut them in smaller pieces and got it down to a reasonable size. If anything, I understood how the weight creeped on me. It also showed me that this indeed is a lifestyle and that I will need to keep track of this forever. I also am reminded that I need to be patient while my body decides to give up the fat! 

    9/23: 180.5 🤨Today was tap class. That was it for movement. Yesterday, I walked and practiced tap. 🤷‍♀️ 

    9/24: 178.1 😊If I can bounce around in the 170s for a while, I will be happy. It’s sad when a life event creates a speed bump in your progress. For me, it was the wedding (before, during, and after). One thing that was different last night—we didn’t have anything to snack on at all after dinner. Wow! If that was it, I need to do that every day, but it was HARD! We’ve cut back to only watery fruits after dinner (grapes, oranges, etc), which has helped. Maybe I can gradually work my way towards making this a habit.

    9/25: 178.5 😊Please again. NSV: I’m also feeling better in my clothes! I haven’t gone down a size because I’ve been wearing clothes that are too tight. 🤣So now they are comfortable. Last night was chicken fajitas! I haven’t made those in a while. So yummy. Today’s Thursday lunch out with the fam was a bust. My husband picked up my salad and they had breading on the chicken. 👎That is NOT gluten free. I had one bite before it hit me. 🤞that I don’t have a reaction. NSV: Tap was super fun today and I feel so much stronger in my knees! That was my goal, so yay! 🎉

    9/26: 178.7 🤨This increase makes no sense. I was well below calorie allotment, exercised a lot, drank water, plenty of sleep the night before. Only thing that happened was the I didn’t eat much the beginning of the day due to unforeseen circumstances. Even with that, I did not overeat. 🤷‍♀️Not sure what will happen today. Plans are up in the air.

    @SModa61 Hang in there ! I’m still impressed at you being in the 120s!!! I can’t even imagine I will ever see that on my scale. You’re still inspiring to me!

    @deepwoodslady I have not watched Firefly Lane . Will have to try that.

    @SheilaBoneham LOL 🤣

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 184.0

    09/18-187.8 ❌ (Trend Weight – 185.0)

    09/19-185.0 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 185.0)

    09/24-183.8 ✅ (Trend Weight: 184.6)

    09/25-184.6 ❌ (Trend Weight: 184.6) I thought it would be worse. Yesterday was my travel day and a day I’m not proud of. I was bad in the city, but even worse when I got home. I haven’t had any sleep either, probably because of the food choices. DD and DGS will be here today for the weekend. I’ve got to stick to my plan. I don’t care what she has in those big Aldi sized shopping bags and in that 100 pound backpack!

    🐝🐝🐝🐝 09/26-183.0 ✅ (Trend Weight: 184.4) I usually don’t weigh on Fridays but decided to go for it since a particular week is ending in another challenge I’m in where we set weekly goals. Weighing at 6 am when I get up for DGS’s school bus is too close to my late night bed times. The weight is too heavy as my 2 am snack is still in there and nothing has digested or moved out of my system yet. My 6 am this morning was a gain after an excellent day so it didn’t make sense. It was 185.6. After the bus I lay back down and re-weighed at about 11:30. It was 183.0. That’s a 2.6 lb difference in the two weights! Since 183 is closer to my normal weigh time (about 2 hours later) and a number that makes me feel happier 😉, I will use that today and see what happens tomorrow. Somewhere in the mix I also take my once-per-week medication with a lot of water so that can complicate things too. Usually I just skip Friday’s and avoid all the confusion and drama.

    09/27-xxxxx- (Trend Weight: xxxxx)

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 309 (my 239th).

    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.

    I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.

    image-bac82df283afa-8c58.png

    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 135. 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 67 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.

    I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life."Health is wealth".

    SW Rnd 309 Using weight from 9/20; first weigh in on return from holiday – 146.3

    9/17 DNW - 6.3 miles walked. Had a lovely day, hotel spoiled us last night, all sensible eating went out the window!!

    9/18 DNW - 9.3 miles walked. Caught the bus to Ibiza Town, wandered around the port, castle, cathedral & maze of old streets.

    9/19 DNW - 8.94 miles walked, did favourite walk of the holiday to the lighthouse and back along the coastal rocks & pm last lay on beach & swim in the sea.

    9/20 146.3 – that’s the holiday damage!! And a shock to be 0.3 pounds back into the BMI overweight category !! My giddy aunt!! Here we go working to lose 1.5 pound by the end of the round. No structured walking due to flying back home.

    9/21 144.6 – that’s a better number, at least I am back in the normal BMI range. No structured walking, took our 2 little DGS out for the day whilst DD & SIL went to the theatre for a Friends parody show – they have always been great fans. We took the boys bowling as the weather was inclement, and all had a wonderful time. Eating well back on track.

    9/22 143.8 – 7.9 miles walked. Settled well into sensible eating pattern, restarted morning stretching & toning exercises.

    image-5892af056be82-1b1b.png

    9/23 143 – 11.24 miles walked.

    9/24 141.8 – 6.55 miles walked. Lunch out with FF including my 3 sisters, they all started their wight loss journey at the beginning of the year, and between them have lost my total weight – I am so proud of them.

    9/25 143 – 5.4 miles walked before the celebration of life of an old friend, caved in & indulged in some cake after the sandwiches, used those afternoon refreshments as my evening meal, but then after our dance class felt so weak with hunger that when we got home I had a sandwich. Unfortunately eating that late before bed meant that the food sat in my stomach & kept me awake way into the early hours, should have had a sensible light meal before dancing!

    9/26 142.6 – (trend 142.6) 6.03 miles walked.

    9/27 142.6 – (trend 142.6) No structured walking; visited National Trust property - Coughton Court before it passes back into control of the family. Pleased with the round once we returned from holiday, just a pound to lose before I’m back to pre-holiday weight.

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

    Tennis tournament starts today – two matches today and two matches tomorrow (in the mid 90s) so I will hydrate & have fun! Lots of 🥩 💦 & Electrolytes✨

    Spent a good bit of time yesterday in prayer & reflection as well as this morning. A peaceful & present experience to start this day. Will 🤸🏼🏋️‍♀️ ⏱️ now to warm-up for first 🎾 match!

    9/20 & 9/21 DNW. 🎾🎾🎾🤸🏼👣💦Great nutrition Friday but not so much yesterday. Two tennis matches Friday/one yesterday -all were grueling. My team missed the playoffs by one loss. We had a great time! I can certainly feel my age from a few years ago… Three tough matches in the heat took its toll. I was exhausted yesterday and ended up eating way more than I should have (PASTA-what?!?!!!). It was a decision based on exhaustion & not smart for me… Fell asleep super early last night - tossed and turned from being too full… I learned that, for me, overdoing it physically then rationalizing it by increased portions - has many more negative ramifications than simply not exercising (if that makes any sense). I’m still recovering today from the heat & pushing too hard and will jump back on board here tomorrow. Hydrating today! I apologize for not keeping up with our “feed” I will catch up by tomorrow. But oh @itladyee  Princess Lola is darling! We had a Lola once… Lola was our golden retriever for 13 years and my love!! Enjoy!

    9/22 DNW I’m still in a fog. Back tomorrow. Today:🚶‍♀️💗👣🏋️‍♀️💦

    9/23 +5 lbs in 5 days from keeping all intake STILL inside my body! Gosh! Still hydrating- can’t get enough. Lesson: do not over-extend in heat & dehydration! Hopefully will “process” soon. Planning a WV walk & electrolytes. (Most I’ve weighed in 2years) not worried - simply flummoxed @ my system shut-down. #HSF #MindBodySoul #discipline 

    9/24 133.0 🏆🤸🏼🚶‍♀️💗👣🏋️‍♀️📖💦

    Still feeling bloated but at least my system started working again! Lovely WV walk on the lakefront yesterday. My hubby surprised me! (I’ll post some photos) … solid day nurturing myself- #MindBodySoul Getting MORE back in the groove today! My eyes are still on the PRIZE- my BHAG.  💪🏻

    9/25 133.6 🏆🤸🏼🏋️‍♀️🚶‍♀️💗👣💦📖

    9/26 133.4 🤸🏼🚶‍♀️👣📖💦 macros ✅

    Today: 🎾🤸🏼🏋️‍♀️ still dehydrated….will finish 💪🏻 Stay present: #MindBodySoul : love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. #discipline 

    9/27 DNW. I fell asleep at 9 PM and woke up at 12:30 AM and I haven’t gone back to sleep so 🚫⚖️ this morning… Wound-up from I don’t know what - had a terrific day yesterday. 🏆👣🎾🏋️‍♀️. Loved my tennis lesson and an hour with personal trainer. I reviewed the round and there’s no way I gained but the scale is simply not cooperating… no TMI for two days- another clog? I look forward to ⚖️ tomorrow. Company tonight / dinner out. I’ll make smart choices. WV 5mi this morning & cleaning house. Tucker’s soccer is out of town - will miss. I want to have a weight loss mindset next round - my body is quite stubborn … I believe I had a maintenance mindset this round.  Reviewed calories -  I averaged 1420 with EXTENSIVE movement. TBH- it’s frustrating. On the positive side I’m learning about my body. I need to stay away from pasta & dairy and stick to 💯 CLEAN fuel. I’m His creation so it’s time I honor His design. I’m just different. So different! Honor my differences! BHAG still on the horizon.  See y’all in R310!

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 309
    Sept 18 -27, 2025

    63 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  – 146.6

    GW Maintaining between 124 – 126 

    SW: 127.6

    9/18 – 127.8 I will get myself together. Excuses include “after wedding” Monday. Tues spent 4 hours trying to help acclimate new private aid for mom, who then quit and snuck off the job two hours before her end time. Wed working on aftermath, and today, back to maine to clean everything there and close it down. I distract easily. 

    We are going out to eat tonight, but I know the restaurant and menu.

    9/19 – 127.2 Just mildly better than past few days.

    9/20 – 128.0 Now that was cruel. :P I finally did a great day. First since last weekend. I will say though that over the years I have seen that “day after pasta” day often shows an up. Yes, we had pasta last night, but I tracked it thoroughly.

    9/21 – 128.6 another up without reason. Going to just let this play out. It will sort and stabilize soon and I’ll know where I am out. Looking to get back 126 or below before November.

    9/22 – 127.4 I think this could be a realistic number for my behavior this week (1.6 lb gain from last weekend which would mean about 5600 calories over for the week). Yesterday was not awful, but I did not accurately track. I don’t have the groceries in the house to support better choices, and I think this is going to continue a few more days until I can get a reset.

    9/23 – 128.8 Yup, it continues

    9/24 – 128.0 So yesterday, I tracked, and also resisted the compelling urge to binge (was eyeing those chocolate chips!!)

    9/25 – DNW rare day that I decided to not face the scale. It’s now past 5:30 PM though and today has been good. Will check the scale in the am.

    9/26 – 129.0 Definitely disappointing, but I’ve earned it this round. Hopefully tomorrow’s number will be slightly better to end this round.

    9/27 – 128.8 well, that’s end of round 309, and enough of messing around. 310 needs to be better, thought all of the first four days have challenges. Gotta do my planning that I know I can do.

    Rnd 309 | SW: 180.0 | EWG: 178.6 🎯

    9/18: 180.0 😊Well, this was my goal for yesterday. 🤣Lunch out with the fam, then tap class.💃

    9/19 180.4 🤨Not really sure why there was an increase with as much activity as I had yesterday??? In addition, I had a surplus of calories. So frustrating! But I’m not giving up. Went for a short walk this morning and practiced tap. Then went to an art fair and walked around all evening. Lots of activity again. We’ll see tomorrow.

    9/20: 181.3 😔Late night eating and drinking. Today I have a bridal shower and then another outing with friends this evening. Sadly, I’m not expecting tomorrow to be any better.

    9/21: 180.4 😊Well, this is a step in the right direction. I didn’t eat anything at the bridal shower because there was essentially nothing gluten free for me to eat. Plus, the food that was there was intermingled with crackers that I could not have. I can’t explain the hurt and feelings of betrayal considering that this was a shower for a future family member. I really didn’t think I needed to say on the invitation that I’m celiac. Whatever. I’ve decided that my future RSVPs will say that I will be happy to attend if my food safety is protected. Yes, I could take a separate meal for myself, but that is just weird. While I was standing there looking at the food wondering what on earth here is safe, the bride-to-be flippantly said to me, “Sorry, I don’t know what is gluten free here.” So sorry for my rant. 

    On a positive note, I went to an event full of food trucks (about 15 of them) and figured that I wouldn’t find anything I could eat…but I DID!!! I was so happy! We had a good time. Nice to end on a positive note.

    9/22: 179.3 🎉I am happy, but not getting attached. However, motivation is high today! Yesterday, we had lasagna that I made last winter…in the freezer, of course. I entered the recipe in MFP and was a little mind-blown.🤯I mean, I knew it would be a lot, but…wow! Okay, so I cut them in smaller pieces and got it down to a reasonable size. If anything, I understood how the weight creeped on me. It also showed me that this indeed is a lifestyle and that I will need to keep track of this forever. I also am reminded that I need to be patient while my body decides to give up the fat! 

    9/23: 180.5 🤨Today was tap class. That was it for movement. Yesterday, I walked and practiced tap. 🤷‍♀️ 

    9/24: 178.1 😊If I can bounce around in the 170s for a while, I will be happy. It’s sad when a life event creates a speed bump in your progress. For me, it was the wedding (before, during, and after). One thing that was different last night—we didn’t have anything to snack on at all after dinner. Wow! If that was it, I need to do that every day, but it was HARD! We’ve cut back to only watery fruits after dinner (grapes, oranges, etc), which has helped. Maybe I can gradually work my way towards making this a habit.

    9/25: 178.5 😊Please again. NSV: I’m also feeling better in my clothes! I haven’t gone down a size because I’ve been wearing clothes that are too tight. 🤣So now they are comfortable. Last night was chicken fajitas! I haven’t made those in a while. So yummy. Today’s Thursday lunch out with the fam was a bust. My husband picked up my salad and they had breading on the chicken. 👎That is NOT gluten free. I had one bite before it hit me. 🤞that I don’t have a reaction. NSV: Tap was super fun today and I feel so much stronger in my knees! That was my goal, so yay! 🎉

    9/26: 178.7 🤨This increase makes no sense. I was well below calorie allotment, exercised a lot, drank water, plenty of sleep the night before. Only thing that happened was the I didn’t eat much the beginning of the day due to unforeseen circumstances. Even with that, I did not overeat. 🤷‍♀️Not sure what will happen today. Plans are up in the air.

    9/27: 178.8 😊Well, I’m only +0.2 from my goal for this round, so I’m pretty happy to end where I am. Tapped yesterday. Did well on water. I tried a new recipe that was disappointing—Parsnip Fries. I’ve never eaten a parsnip in my life. The parsnip wasn’t the problem though. They just didn’t get crispy like a fry. I think the problem was the recipe. I have a bunch of parsnips left, so I’m gonna keep trying. Today, we were headed to the Renaissance Festival using the tickets I won, but it’s too flippin’ hot! 🥵 Maybe next weekend. 🤷‍♀️ So we’ll have dinner with my DB & SIL at a posh retirement community. I think they’re trying to get us to move there. 😉See y’all in the next round.

    👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE 👍👍

    I’m Amanda, 5’2” 40F in Appalachian Virginia.


    Non-scale goals (tracked for prior day):

    🏃🏻‍♀️ Intentional movement 7/10 days

    🚫 No alcohol 7/10 days


    SW Rnd 309: 129.0

    RGW: 128.0


    9/18 - 130.6🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 Didn’t have a bad day yesterday. Just bouncing back from being a little dehydrated after drinking wine. I’ve been doing a 5-day express strength program on Peloton all week. Daily 20-minute full body progressive overload with dumbbells. They go by quickly but the soreness is starting to add up. It feels good to be more consistent with strength training though. I’ve been substituting at middle schools all week. Middle school starts at 7:30 here 🥱 My sleep has been good but I still find it challenging to wake up at 6. Tomorrow I’m actually subbing in my son’s 1st grade class! It has a later start and I get to see inside his day at school. 


    9/19 - 130.2 🏃🏻‍♀️ Drank wine and ate cake with my neighbor last night 🤦🏻‍♀️ Subbing in my son’s class was a blast! However, it showed me that he needs some reading remediation at home. He was completely unplugged during that portion of class. Sad to see it but glad to be aware of it now. His teacher has told me nothing.


    9/20 - 130.2. Didn’t meet either non-scale goal yesterday and just really didn’t treat my body well. We went to a brewery, at which I drank, then ate cheeseburger pizza very late. It felt so wrong to do that to my body, that I actually realize I have come a long way in my thinking. It’s rare for me to do that, so instead of beating myself up about it I’m acknowledging that what used to be near-daily behavior (in my 20s) is now super rare. Now I need to move forward and shift my behavior. So far this round I’m not doing great with that.


    9/21 - 131.2 🏃🏻‍♀️ Boy we’ve had a social few days here, which has resulted in drinking 3 days in a row. I’ve been through plenty of phases of this but it isn’t where I wish to be. I also have not been mindful of what I’m eating, including so far today. DH is grilling but I need to figure out what veggies we can have with the meat. I shook out of my stupor and got on the Peloton bike for a low impact workout. That made me feel better! Planning to head into Monday on a high note!


    9/22 - 131.6 🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 A deserved gain. Using today to reset. It feels like I still haven’t mentally bounced back from vacation mode which is very annoying. Planning on a dog walk and strength training, as well as grocery shopping to prepare for the week. 


    9/23 - 130.8 🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 Happy to be down a bit after the weekend but not feeling optimistic about reaching my 128.0 goal for the round. Having a good day so far today! Woke up at 6 to lift weights before work and had a high-ish protein breakfast. I got very hungry before lunch but still ate fairly reasonably. Tonight I’m getting together with friends sooo I obviously will have some challenges there.


    9/24 - 130.0 🏃🏻‍♀️ Overindulged at my event last night but I’ve been on track today. I even tracked everything before dinner to make sure. My weight today was probably low due to dehydration so I don’t expect to see today’s work pay off tomorrow, but that’s okay. Just need more days like today in a row!


    9/25 - 129.6 🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 I guess my good work yesterday did pay off a bit. Still above my RSW and don’t see it getting to my goal in the next 2 days. I am feeling anxious today and I’m not sure why. I’m co-hosting a baby shower on Saturday. It’s just dinner at a restaurant so it’s very easy, but I keep feeling like I should be doing more. 6yo has his first camp out for scouts the same day, and DH is supposed to take both boys so I can prep/go to the shower then join them for the night. But the weather is looking bad so I don’t really want to go at all. Health/fitness-wise I squeezed in my 20 minute express workout and a short dog walk with the 4yo. Cooking pork chops for dinner tonight with Brussels sprouts and homegrown butternut squash. Hopefully having a quiet evening at home will recenter me.



    9/26 - 130.4 🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 Kind of surprised to see the increase, but I didn’t track so I shouldn’t be that surprised. Definitely not making my round goal. Maybe next time. I woke up early today and did day 5 of round 2 of my 5-day express program. It’s intended to complete for at least 4 weeks so I guess I’m halfway done! I was less sore this week than last week so I was able to lift a little more. One big mark of progress was when I did 4 sets of 5 push-ups off my knees yesterday! Maybe I can do them again next week and be less sore. Today I’m subbing for kindergarten then taking 4yo to meet my mom. They’re going to play at an indoor playground while I go shopping for new running shoes. Hopefully I can get back to running with the right gear. Happy Friday everyone! 


    9/27 - 132.0 🏃🏻‍♀️ Really went off the rails last night. Hopefully some of this is retained water, but alas, this was not my round. My mind went to “well I already blew it this round anyway so I suppose I’ll just give up for tonight and reset in the next round”. Not healthy. Looking forward to that reset though! Onward!

The weight is too heavy as my 2 am snack is still in there and nothing has digested or moved out of my system yet. My 6 am this morning was a gain after an excellent day so it didn’t make sense. It was 185.6. After the bus I lay back down and re-weighed at about 11:30. It was 183.0. That’s a 2.6 lb difference in the two weights! Since 183 is closer to my normal weigh time (about 2 hours later) and a number that makes me feel happier 😉, I will use that today and see what happens tomorrow. Somewhere in the mix I also take my once-per-week medication with a lot of water so that can complicate things too. Usually I just skip Friday’s and avoid all the confusion and drama.

    🐝🐝🐝🐝 09/27-183.6 ❌ (Trend Weight: 184.3) Too much of a good thing is still a bad thing….. However, I’m very happy to see the trend still going down and to have lost nearly ½ lb this round. See you around the corner in the next one!

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Net loss to date after six rounds: zilch

    SW Rnd 309 298.7 GW for round 296.7
    GW to end 2025: 284.7

    9/18: 297.6
    9/19: 298.4 - Donated plasma last night. Always feel tired the day after. Going to focus on protein and iron and lots of fluids. My husband gets home from his work trip today which makes me so happy. TGIF, am I right???
    9/20: 299.3 - So nice to have my husband home. Last night we had a pasta dinner. Today we decided to be active and went for a hike for one hour. We both know we need more healthy choices in our life. He and I truly win or lose together.
    9/21: 298.7 - Going to apple pick with my husband today.
    9/22: 298.4 - Back under my start weight for the round. Yesterday was a good day. I ended the weekend feeling thankful for the memories we made. No alcohol at all yesterday.
    9/23: 298.2
    9/24: 299.4 - Met with our financial planner yesterday and things are really on track. Said to my husband this morning that it won't matter if we don't get our health under control to enjoy it.
    9/25: 299.2
    9/26: DNW - Got up and totally forgot to get on the scale which is unlike me. I am off work today, only found out at the end of the day yesterday that I'd be off today instead of Monday in lieu of a stat holiday my province has next week. Beautiful fall weather.. looking forward to a fun weekend ahead.
    9/27: 298.9 - Fun day today with friends from out of town. Basically a rounding error round. Better than the distinctive gain of last round.

    SW Rnd 3️⃣0️⃣9️⃣ 232.2 Goal 229.x

    9/18 231.4 ~ Travel day. Didn't take any travel snacks…stopped and had lunch. Went to the nearby casino that evening and just had a sandwich.
    9/19 DNW ~ Morning at Hotel before picking up Princess Lola, then travel day. We picked up some ribs (recommended by a friend) on the way back knowing that I wasn't going to cook. They weren't very good and I was tired so I didn't eat much.
    9/20 230.8 ~
    9/21 231 ~ Back to regular scheduled programming :)
    9/22 231 ~ midday weigh-in, so possibly lower. My schedule is a bit out of whack. I didn't get 5 consecutive hours last night, more like 2.5. As long as she does "something" when I take her out, I'm not upset at all. I just wish I could fall back to sleep as quickly as she does. I refuse to start the day before 6am, but at 6, we're up and out to start the day. Then puppy breakfast, out again, then puppy play. By 10ish, she's a bit worn out so down she goes and out I go to get my walk and/or exercise in (2 miles today). I return and eventually she wakes up….we play, we have lunch, we potty, we play, we nap, repeat! Lola is doing great! It's the DH that I am about to choke…"when do you think she will be potty trained", "how will you know", "how long can we leave her alone", "do we need to put a leash on her" (yes, we have a fence but she's much too small). And those are just the ones I can think of at the moment~
    9/23 229.8 ~ late weigh-ins might be the new normal. I get up and get started with the puppy and don't get to me stuff until about 9am. Oh, well, I'm still figuring out "our" schedule but I like this number! Last night, she amazed me…. We were down for about 4 almost 5 hours and I thought…hmm, haven't heard her. I turned over and once she saw me move, she gave me a big sign to let me know she was awake and ready…. she waited for me!!! I'm calling her my emotional support dog. She does make me happy! Today was my son's 36th birthday. I made him cookies and have for every year except one (when my sister died)….at any rate…took Lola down and she got to meet her "brother".
    9/24 230.6 ~ Lola slept in, so I got to weigh early. I think I prefer the later version!!
    9/25 230..8 ~ Early morning again. Took an exercise break yesterday. Climbing into bed on Tuesday night, I realized how happy I am with my new puppy and how good it felt to need to take care of her and to have her appreciate it. I am her person….but now I have to work on separation anxiety! I'm also finding I need to reorganize a few things in my house. I had made adjustments for children, but children don't grab your throw rug and drag it across the floor, grab your shoes and run with them, attempt to chew on wicker baskets on the floor, drag the box of firestarters for the fire pit… I think you get the idea!! 🤣 I feel like I'm settling into a routine for both of us and it's nice.
    9/26 231
    9/27 231 Yikes ~ round over….oops…jumping over to 310

    To those who mentioned my vertigo- I used the DizzyFix for the other side twice and the vertigo is gone! When I have had problems in the past, my right ear has been the cause. This time it was my left. Today I start the new round with my head on straight! See you in 310!
