Create a new rectangle to the size shown above and apply a corner Curvature of 0.7. Convert the rectangle to Editable Shapes (Arrange menu). Vertically align it to the other shapes as shown.

With the rounded rectangle selected, switch to the Shape Editor Tool and select the 2 control points shown above in red outline and press the Break at Points icon on the Infobar. Select and delete the right side.

Using the Shape Editor Tool, move the end control points inward until they align with the center of the shape shown above. I've added 2 guidelines through the center to help align the ends.

Create a horizontal line that starts at the end of the curved shape and extends to the end of the loop shape as shown above. Duplicate the line and align it to the bottom end of the loop shape.

Change the outline width to 2pt for the loop shape and 1pt for the horizontal lines by selecting 2pt or 1pt from the Width drop down list on the Infobar.

Save your drawing and take a short break.
