    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 315 (my 245th).

    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.
    • Would like to lose a pound 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".

    11/16 139.2 (trend 139.9) Very happy with myself this round, moved back into the 139’s (trend is there too today!), recognising that this 1.6 pound loss is due to consistency & no binge. Let’s see if I can lose another pound next round.

    EW Rnd 314 139.2

    SW Rnd 315 139.2

    11/17 139.2 (trend 139.8) – invited by DD & family for Sunday lunch & day with them. Managed to get out early for a brisk 4 mile walk before we left for the hour and a half journey.

    11/18 139.6 (trend 139.8) – 8.5 miles walked.

    11/17: 171.7 📉I’m loving how this round ends the day before Thanksgiving. 🤣That could either be a good or a bad thing. 🤷‍♀️Got exercise in yesterday. I also made another new recipe—Salmon Cakes. I decided we need more Omega-3. In addition, we have lots of leftovers since I realized I misread the recipe and doubled it in the end. 😂

    11/18: 172.1 📈No surprise. I had to get up extra early today. Such a busy day. Morning meeting, tap class in the afternoon, dinner out and theater tonight. Whew! 

    @deepwoodslady Yay 70s!!!🎉 Such a good feeling!

    @SheilaBoneham and @quiltingjaine Yes! Knitting keeps me from snacking too! I think not only are my hands busy, but my mind is too. I just don’t seem to think about it.

    @jrago47 So sorry your plan to have meals already made didn’t work out. That’s frustrating. But good for you in planning to have the meals made for your alone time. Hope you find something that works for you!

    @Zaxa2021 Our bodies are strange! That is so frustrating to have a gain when you’re not expecting it. Hang in there! It will even out. Maybe sodium and water retention?

    SW Rnd 315: 146.7

    11/17: 146.3: I mostly stayed on track yesterday. Overall, it was a good weekend that didn't derail me. I got a lot of cleaning done and made some soup for throughout the week. I squeezed in a shorter than usual walk, but at least it was something.

    11/18: 148.8. What?!? Very disappointed with this number, I have no explanation for it. My body fluctuates so much for no reason.

    11/19: 147.7. I did lots of walking, ate well, not much snacking. I was hoping the scale would go back down a little more, but glad it's a better number than yesterday.
