    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 310 (my 240th).

    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
    • to have a totally 10-day binge free round.

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

    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".

    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.

    ED Rnd 309 142.6

    SW Rnd 310 142.6

    9/28 142.6 - (trend 142.6) 5.08 miles, met up with DS & family for a day at a Victorian living museum.

    9/29 142.6 – (trend 142.6) 11.7 miles walked.

    Round 310 28 September – 7 Oct 2025

    Please join us starting on 28 September for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 310

    Anyone can join us at any time during the round.

    Join us! If we stay mindful, we can do this, you can do this.

    Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

    Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. You have only one hour to edit your post. Post every day to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non-scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share. Make the board your own - track what is important for YOUR JOURNEY. 

    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.

    I'm a little late but I'll join!

    SW: 253

    I am currently following the WW program, but I love the community feature of MFP so I've been around for a while. You can't beat the workshops at WW though, so I've been a member for over a year now. Slow and steady loser which works for me. Had a big gain over the summer which I am working on right now. 11 pounds away from onederland which is my first goal :)

    Goals:

    Honest tracking daily, stay within points, 80oz of water daily, pool 5x/week, walk 1 hour a day, gratitude journal, plan my week/goals and schedule in my activity for the week every weekend, update MFP and weight spreadsheet daily

    9/28 211

    9/29 211 (happy I stayed the same here as we had pizza for lunch and then I made homemade ramen for dinner. It had a lot of soy sauce so I'm surprised I didn't see a gain with all the salt. It was absolutely divine though, first time making ramen and it is now a staple!! Hubby loved it too! I even did seasoned eggs which were really special. I love cooking. :) )

    @fermatamb7212 how cool you have so many scouts in your family! We'll probably all start participating when my youngest turns 5 in February! I'm hoping future campouts go a little more smoothly, though my friend who was involved last year said they got snowed on in April, which is NOT typical for our area.

    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

    📝 Track 5/10 days


    SW Rnd 310 - 132.0

    RGW - 129.6 (hoping I’m retaining some water but we’ll see)


    9/28 - 131.6 🏃🏻‍♀️Have to work harder this round and act like I’m actually trying to get healthier. Yesterday I co-hosted a baby shower for a friend and of course overindulged, but it could have been worse. I made good choices for lunch at least to offset some of the damage. DH and DSs had an adventure last night. They were at a scout campout when there was storming and heavy rain. There was a flash flood warning and they all packed up in the dark and rain. Thankfully everyone was safe and home around 9!


    9/29 - 132.4 🏃🏻‍♀️🚫 Not pleased with this number. Today is going to have to be a tracking day for me, as closely as I can anyway. DH is doing the cooking tonight and I’m not off to the best start, but hopefully I can right the ship.
