January 11-17, 2023
LW: 131.4 TW: 130.8 The weigh-in gods are being good to me. Today's weight matches Monday's, but yesterday's matched last week's weigh in. So I rock and roll on. I am surprised to not be up today because I exceeded my kcal goal, including the extra's for activity. So I was prepared to be even higher than last week. Perhaps…

January 4-10, 2023
LW: 132.4 TW: 131.4 Hello, all. I hope the first few days of the year have treated you well. For some reason, it felt good to type 2023. I'm grateful to have lost that pound, or at least it looks like I've lost it today. I say that because my weight always fluctuates day to day. I am not so happy that today's weight is 2…

Dec 28 - Jan 3
LW: 133.8 TW: 134.2 Wow, I just typed January! 2023 is almost here. And, my weight is up, so a major goal has to be reduction. My workouts are pretty good, although my trainer had to cancel last Monday. But, I've been closing my rings and getting my cardio workouts done, so I know it's purely intake. My goal for this week…

December 21-27, 2022
LW: 132.4 TW: 131.6 Hi everyone. This will be short because we are still scrambling to get out of here. We were supposed to leave at 9 a.m., but hubby had a work emergency and here we are still at 12:15p.m. :s I also had to deal with the transfer of an old IRA. It has been a massive headache. We are likely to still be here…

Dec 14 - Dec 20
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.0 I had a busy day yesterday and my food intake was less than usual by the end of the day. I'm chalking the reduction up to that, but I don't expect it to last as more Holidays and events are on the horizon! I had no trainer again Monday (still dealing with kids illnesses), but per her texts they are all…

December 7-13, 2022
LW: 130.4 TW: 131.6 Not what I wanted. My weight has been bouncing around a lot this week, but I think the reason I weighed 130.4 yesterday and 131.6 today is that my sodium intake was high yesterday and so was sugar. I made the mistake of skipping breakfast, eating an early lunch, and was way too hungy by dinner time.…

November 30-December 6, 2022
LW: 129.8 TW: 130.4 I can't believe I typed December, and as I did, it hit me that 2022 is quickly slipping away. Man, this year went fast! Although I'm up a half pound from last Wednesday, it's within my usual swing of a couple of pounds on any given day, so I'm not too concerned. In fact, considering that the past week…

November 23-29, 2022
LW: 130.0 TW: 129.8 So steady as she goes, but at least I've held steady despite a few bumps in the road as far as activity. Thought I'd start the thread before the day slips away from me and while it's still morning for the rest of you. As we slide toward the holidays it does seem like the days go by faster. And perhaps…

November 16-November 22
LW: 131.2 TW: 130.0 Well, I'm happy. I still want to see a 2 after that 1, but I'm glad to have a lower number on weigh-in day. I actually saw a much higher number one day this past week--about 3 pounds higher, in fact--but at least the low end of the swing is a bit lower. I hope to get the high end a bit lower, too, as…

Nov 9 - Nov 15
LW: 132.6 TW: 132.4 Not much, but I'll take it. A couple of leftover Halloween candy got me, lol. So far this week is going well, Monday and Tuesday workouts and deficits, and getting on a cardio workout this afternoon. Unfortunately, my sister was in the hospital a couple of days. . she went home yesterday but is going to…

November 3-8, 2022
LW: 131.2 TW: 131.8 Darn it! But that's what travel often does to me. Sorry that I've been MIA for the past week. I thought I mentioned it, but apparently I didn't. We took a short trip with another couple to Williamsburg, VA. We just needed a few days away and decided to choose that location because the leaves were at…

October 26-November 2, 2022
LW: 129.2 TW: 131.2 Oh, read it and weep! It's disappointing to log 2 pounds up, but trust me--that's not as bad as it has been. On Monday, I stepped on the scale and almost screamed because I saw 133. That's the highest I have been in a long time, and for that day, I sort of felt defeated. But I looked at Sunday, which…

October 19-25, 2022
LW: 131.4 TW: 129.2 Sorry I'm late posting. The past 3 days have been super busy. I did weigh yesterday and planned to post, so my weight above is Wednesday's. I didn't even think to weigh today. I slept a little late and had to rush to get to my class. Then I went from class directly to walk because my walking buddy had a…

Oct 12 - Oct 18
LW: 132.2 TW: 132.6 I'm hanging around the same weight and just hope I will not gain on our trip. . maybe all the walking will help. Fingers crossed. Sarah, the forgotten medications sounds like something I would do, lol! I'm glad you had a good time at the reunion anyway though. Kelly, I've also been thinking about you…

October 5-11, 2022
LW: 130.0 TW: 130.0 Well, holding my own here. No--actually, I think I've seen a little progress. This is actually my high weight for the last week. It has bounced around between 129.2 and 130.0. I only hope that I can hold it here until we get back from hubby's reunion. Two days on the road, four days eating out, fewer…

September 28-October 4, 2022
LW: 131.0 TW: 130.0 Happy hump day, ladies. I can't believe I just typed October. The days are getting so much shorter and a little cooler here on the East Coast. I love fall but kind of dread the short amount of daylight that will come soon. Thankfully, I hit the low end of my swing on weigh-in day this week. I've enjoyed…

September 21-27, 2022
LW: 131.6 TW: 131.0 Good morning, all. Thought I'd start the thread before my day gets away from me. Lois, oh my gosh. I am so sorry you are having to go through all this pain, effects of the pain meds, etc., and I hope the next suture/staple removal is not so painful. When I fell and broke my nose and cut up my face last…

September 14-20, 2022
LW: 131.6 TW: 131.6 Happy Thursday. I was ready to apologize for not weighing in yesterday, but I see others were also caught with a busy day. I did weigh yesterday morning, and the TW is that weight. I was down a little this morning (130.8), but it's still all in the 2-pound range that I have been stuck in far longer than…
-
September 7-13, 2022
LW: 130.4 TW: 131.6 Not so lucky this time to be on the low end of the swing. Instead, I'm on the high end. I'm still dealing with lower tummy issues and I'm not sure what is going on. The good thing is that I have yet to run a fever, so hopefully if it is diverticulitis again, it is mild and will stay that way. Not sure…

Aug 31 - Sept 6
LW: 131.4 TW: 131.8 Well, this is proof that more exercise doesn't reduce weight. I've been getting a lot of exercise, but the intake has been hit or miss. I can't believe it's the last day of August. Where does the time go? I had posted that there's been a lot happening in my life, so I'll just give an update. We sold our…

August 24-30, 2022
LW: 130.6 TW: 130.4 Wow. I was feeling bad about not getting here until almost 6:30 p.m. EDT, and I see I'm the first to arrive! I'm again lucky enough to hit the low end of my 2-pound swing on weigh-in day. This is the lowest weight I've seen during the past 7 days, but one afternoon, I actually saw a big hike that scare…

August 17-23, 2022
LW: 132.2 TW: 130.6 Well, that's a nice surprise. Makes me think that last week's weight was probably some water weight, but in any event, it's nice to see a loss. I did my hilly outside route last night for the first time in a while. I headed out right about sundown, so it was a little warm but not hot. I think the change…

August 10-16, 2022
LW: 132.0 TW: 132.2 Well rats! Twice this week, I was 130.8 and thought I was making a little progress. But as we always say, just put whatever the scale says on Wednesday morning. And so that's it! :/ I'm starting the thread and posting early because this is going to be a busy day. I am walking earlier today because I…
-
August 3-9, 2022
LW: 131.2 TW: 132.0 Well this is an unpleasant surprise and one that is hard to explain. My intake was better than usual (average actual kcals over the 7 days was 1150, i.e., less than the 1200 that MFP recommends. My other stats were okay. Steps were a little off, but primarily because I went to the pool for part of my…

July 27 - Aug 2
Ok....So you know when you think it's going to be bad...well, I'm back at 230.2....that's my pre vacation weight. So, while it's still too heavy, it is LOWER than last week. Silver lining. Anyhow, may be going to Red Lobster for my crab legs tonight...depends on the weather really. We're currently 98f with 53% humidity.…

July 20-27
Returned from San Diego vacay Had a great time. Up a couple of pounds, but that was to be expected. Though the temps were "lower" in numbers than AZ, it was soooo humid. We were at Sea World on Saturday and I was getting a bit nauseaous just before we left. We didn't get to any "waves" as we were staying inside Mission…

July 13 - July 19
Last time: 130.2 TW: 132.2 Yikes! Two full pounds after the 4th and our trip . . that's really unacceptable. I had fun and just kinda "let it all go" with eating . . so, I'm committing to you ladies that I'm back at it. I tried to post photos from my phone, but was unsuccessful. I'll try again tomorrow when I have time. I…

July 6-12, 2022
LW: 129.8 TW: 129.8 Well, steady as she goes, which I suppose is not too bad considering the holiday weekend. July 4 also affected my 7-day average steps because I only got a little over 4K steps that day, although it was a very busy one. We spent part of the day at the pool, where I don't wear my fitbit. We spent part of…

June 29-July 5, 2022
LW: 130.4 TW: 129.8 Well still not far enough away from 130/131 to make me feel like I'm over the hump, but I was very happy to see that "2". I might add that I was also surpised since we had a shrimp dish last night that included feta, and of course that is very high in salt. Plus we ate dinner at 9 p.m. It was one of…

June 22 - June 28
LW: 128.8 TW: 129 Well, having had a bar-b-que with family here on Father's Day, that is better than I expected. The baby and step-granddaughter were here, and zooming with the rest of the Fam was fun. Now, we're getting ready to go to Jackson Lake, and all the plans have changed . . no Yellowstone due to roads getting…
