LW: 130.6 TW: 130.2 Well, pretty much the same old ballpark, but one day this week I actually saw 129.4 and one day 129.8, so it's fluctuating, but fluctuating a little lower than week before last. I've done better with sugar this week, but need to remember that sugar is hiding in more than cookies, ice cream, or…

June 19-25, 2024
LW: 132.0 TW: 130.6 I'm happy to see this, especially since I struggled a bit with just not feeling quite up to par during the past week. I think some is stress and some is weather. Lois, I know that our temps seem mild to you, but our heat is always accompanied by awful humidity. You can feel the heavy air bearing down on…

June 5-11, 2024
LW: 131.4 TW: 130.4 Same ballpark, i.e., somewhere between 130 and 132. It's kind of a daily struggle since hubby literally eats all the time to keep his blood sugar from tanking despite the metformin. And his weight is dropping (and he doesn't need to lose) although his A1C is good now. His summer pants and shorts are all…

LW: 131.4 TW: 130.4 Hi, everyone. This has been a super busy day for me and I still have things I have to do. But I wanted to take just a moment to log in and post my weight (which has bounced around all week with a low of 129.8 and a high of 132). I also wanted to post my 7-day averages before I lose track of those (steps…

May 8-14, 2024
LW: 131.4 TW: 130.8 Not a lot, but I'll take it. Thought I'd go ahead and start the thread before another day gets away from me. I hesitated when I first got up to say anything to anyone because I was feeling just cranky and negative. I don't know why. It was too early to be a reaction to anything that had happened. Then…

May 1-7, 2024
LW: 129.8 TW: 131.4 Arghhh! So frustrating. I've managed to cut way back on added sugar and I walked at times when I had very little energy to do so. This week, a lot of my energy has gone to doing things related to recovery from the pipe incident that are tiring but don't show up on my Fitbit. An example is picking up…

April 17-23, 2024
LW: 130.6 TW: 130.4 Well, not much luck in getting back below 130. I seem to keep bouncing between where I was yesterday (I did weigh yesterday, but had problems getting into MFP) and about a pound above that. Mentioning technical issues, yesterday morning, I could only get into some parts of MFP and when I tried to access…

April 10-16, 2024
LW: 130.6 TW: 130.6 And so she goes. Being in week 4 of all of this chaos plus concerns about its costs has my ratty little brain saying, "Go head and eat that piece of cake. You deserve a little treat." But then when I hit the scale, I think, "why do I keep doing this?" I think I've held together pretty well since all…

March 20-26, 2024
LW: 129.4 TW: 129.2 Well, I cannot begin to describe what we are dealing with. Our entire front yard is gone. We are literally going to have to hire a landscaping company and start from scratch. And hubby was so proud of that yard. We had zoysia grass that was like carpet and we kept pretty flowers growing in the flower…

March 13-19, 2024
LW: 128.6 TW: 129.4 Was on earlier and found that the discussion function was once again not functioning. It seems like Wednesdays are not good days for MFP. It has been a pretty ordinary week, and I know enough now to appreciate ordinary weeks (or days). We are still on the downhill slide for the pipe work. They're…

March 6-12, 2024
LW: 129.4 TW: 128.6 Hi, all. I wanted to post earlier today, but MFP was acting up when I tried to log food, so I decided to stop and give the MFP tech folks time to fix whatever was going on. I was happy with the scale this morning, but I think this lower number is due to the fact that I had to go “nothing by mouth” after…

February 21-27, 2024
LW: 128.2 LW: 129.8 Sorry to be so late posting. It has been a day! (No, actually, it has been a week!) Last week I mentioned that I was lucky to be weighing in at the bottom of my arc. This week there has been no arc. I quickly bounced from 128.2 to 129.8 and literally stayed there all week. I just heard my timer go off…
-
Feb 14-20, 2024
LW: 128.6 TW: 128.2 Well, I'm lucky again this week and hit the low end of the arc on weigh-in day. I am surprised. We have both been busy and stressed, so hubby decided that he just wanted pizza last night, and that usually results in a temporary 2-pound gain. But apparently the type we had last night was not as high in…

Jan 31-Feb 6, 2024
LW: 128.8 TW: 128.4 Hi, all. I was so glad to type February! January feels like it has been far longer than 31 days. Here's a little info on what has been going on in this difficult month. First, I still have not heard anything from the mammogram I had last Wednesday. They said 7 to 10 days, but I really think that if they…

Jan 17-23, 2024
LW: 128.2 TW: 128.0 Okay. That's not so bad. I was once again lucky enough to have the low end of the arc hit on weigh-in day. There's not much of an update to give on the plumbing/sewer crisis. The plumbers came out again last Friday bringing a different/better camera so they could better image the pipes that have…

Jan 3-Jan 9, 2024
LW: 129.8 TW: 129.0 Happy New Year, everyone. I'm just quickly putting in my stats. I noticed that the last thread I started does not show up when I look at the top of the page for latest entries. Don't know what is up with that. Hope this one will show. Noticed that I'm the only one who has been on MFP for a number of…

Dec 27, 2023-Jan 2, 2024
LW: 127.4 TW: 129.8 (The weight for this week is today's weight. I wanted to use the same scale, so didn't weigh on Wednesday.) Arghhh. But I guess I have to be happy because last week I said I'd be happy if I got back here weighing even an ounce under 130. :p And that's pretty much what happened. These trips really take a…
-
December 6-12, 2023
LW: 127.6 TW: 127.6 I suspect that today's weight looks a little low because I was "nothing by mouth" from midnight on because of my annual physical this morning and all the blood tests. I suspect it bounced up a bit once I got some food and fluid in me. Sheesh, I've been thinking about you and sending you, your daughter…
-
November 22-28, 2023
LW: 127.6 TW: 128.4 I am not surprised. That low weight last week was the surprise and it lasted for only a day. I think I must have been dehydrated. But I'm okay with where I am given the trip and some days when walking outside was not possible. I just don't burn as many calories on the TM as I do when I'm pulling those…
-
November 8-14, 2023
LW: 128.4 TW: 128.4 Well I managed to hold steady even though my 7-day average steps (11,809) were much lower than last week, and so was my average kcals burned (1,784). I can't really blame the weather because we had warmer temps than initially forecast and I was able to walk outside on several days. Hubby even went with…
-
October 18-24, 2023
LW: 129 TW: 129.4 And so it goes. This week my weight has swung from the lowest it has been in a while (128.2) to 130.4 the very next day with no logical reason. Sodium, intake, activity--everything okay. So I'm fine with today's number. Sheesh, first let me add that I am sending up prayers that your newest grandbaby will…

October 4-10, 2023
LW: 129.0 TW: 129.0 Well, holding my own, which is a bit of disappointment since I put a lot of effort into meeting my kcals burned daily goal of 1700. And some days, that has taken some effort. It's amazing how few calories us shorties burn going about our daily business. Despite the good weather that has allowed me to…

LW: 129.4 TW: 128.8 Whew! Holding my own. Not a lot happening since I posted yesterday. Still dealing with the plumbing issue. Parts are in for the car, but it's a complex fix so we don't have a finish date. Hubby has moved his trip to see cousins in upstate PA to October. I heard from my second mall walking buddy today. I…

September 6-12, 2021
LW: 130.2 TW: 129.0 Gosh it feels strange to type out a date that does not include August. I love fall and welcome cooler weather, but I'm already dreading the shorter amounts of daylight. I managed to survive the dinner with friends for hubby's birthday and the cookout on Labor Day without gaining, but now I still have…

August 30-September 5, 2023
WBL: 128.4 LW: ??? TW: 130.2 Well, I'm up about two pounds from where I was week before last. I have no idea about last week since my sister has a very old bathroom scale and it was very obvious that it was nowhere near accurate. Staying with them was a good reminder to me to not get into that mode that many older people…

August 16-22, 2023
LW: 128.8 TW: 128.4 This is going to be quick for today as the neighbors who are going to water our plants in the back while we are away are coming down for dessert and coffee soon. The past few days have been hectic and yesterday I had a undesirable surprise. :/ I was busily cleaning up and saw something in the floor in…

August 9-15, 2023
LW: 129.2 TW: 128.8 Well happy hump day. Thought I'd start the thread and weigh in before the day gets away from me. I'm pretty happy with my weight today because it's more or less stable in spite of the fact that we've had brownies and lemon bars in the house for the past couple of days. I made them for hubby to take to a…

August 2-8, 2023
LW: 129.6 TW: 129.2 Weight-wise this week went okay. I credit some of that to still having tongue and throat issues. But then I'm also still not feeling up to par in general, so I took a break again on one day. Break for me is defined as not doing anything purposeful to get in activity. Here are my 7-day averages, which…
