JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | Round 12

vdecosta86

R12 SW - 182.3

GW for R12 - 176 (I know that is a lot but I'm hoping most of it is vacation water weight.)
Final GW - 165

8/1 - 181.4 Starting in the right direction!
8/2 - 179.6 I'm happy with that! I brought a cold home from Florida as a souvenir and I'm never good at eating healthy when I'm sick. So I compromised and paid attention to how much food I consumed yesterday, but I didn't log.
8/3 - 178.5 Happy to be going in the right direction, but I am expecting tomorrow to slow down since I the rest of those vacation pounds are probably legit. Guess it's back to the reality of tracking!
8/4 - 178.9 There's that reality. I went a little off track last night and ate french fries and ice cream. I'm about to head out for a run, so hopefully, tomorrow will be better.
8/5 - 178.4 Went for a run and kayaked yesterday. Unfortunately, I also had dinner and drinks with friends. I plan to hydrate like crazy and possibly run again today. I'm going to a concert tonight, so I am trying to plan ahead to combat those beer and snack temptations.
8/6 - 179.5 - Definitely paying for my food and beverage choices of the last too nights. I am hoping to will get my act together for the second half of this round.

8/1 174 Went run/walking with my dog this morning. I used to run a lot more but am currently recovering from a bad case of plantar fasciitis. I am doing the couch to 10K app and I am on week 4. Small victories!
8/2 174.8
8/3 174.8 First day of TOM today. I could feel it!
8/4 175.9 Wowza. Pretty sure the number is supposed to go down. Did have a heavy lunch yesterday, a stressful evening, and am retaining water like crazy. Today I am focusing on water, water, water.
8/5 175.9 I dreaded the scale this morning as I did a lot of grazing yesterday and drank wine at night (a couple of glasses). So I am glad it did not creep up again! I really want to see the scale go down in this second half. Went to the Y this morning and ran on the treadmill. Think I will start tracking again on MFP.
8/6 174.3 Yesterday was very productive. Spent most of the day cleaning out our shed, so was distracted. Drank lots of water, did not partake in alcohol, and tracked my food. First OP day I have had in a while. One day at a time.

8/4: 157.2 I always go up & down daily during TOM
8/5: 155 Not sure what that's about. I even ate well over yesterday. I may be a little dehydrated.

Goal for R11 R12 = under 195.0

Day / Weight / Comments

8/1 - 195.5 I hot a new low the other day and then I went up and now I am working it back down again. My weight log is full of relatively big up-down-up-down swings so this is part of the pattern. I LIKE the down part of the pattern.
8/2 - 195.8
8/3 - 195.5 Had bad lunch yesterday. Literally. The meal had been buried in the freezer and was not successfully microwaved back to sustenance. I ended up eating a Big Mac and fries and I don't regret a minute of it. Healthy dinner, lots of water, day one week 5 c25k, 200 stairs up, and we stay on track.
8/4 - 195.3 Ate calories + some exercise calories. I'm not a low carber, but I really went overboard on white bread. It was a frustrating day and bread and butter is a comfort food. (DD got in a fender bender.) Got a good walk in; it was a dancing walk as I needed another 30 minutes of dancing for a challenge. Definitely done after dark - do not want to scare small children. Got my third 200 steps count needed for another challenge. Need more sleep.
8/5 - 194.7 My effort seems to be paying off this round. I need to keep it going thru the weekend. Last night C25K W5 D2. Need more vegetables, but not eating badly.

8/6 - 194.7 Donated a pint of blood. Good way to start the weekend. DH and I were out back-to-school shopping for him; it is worse than letting a toddler pick his own outfit.
"I think the pockets stick out. "
"The waist gathers when I put my belt tight"(er then I ever do in real life.)
"My butt doesn't look right."
"I don't like the way the back of the left leg hits my shoe."
By 4:30 we had managed to find four pairs of pants and I was starving. Olive Garden is running a buy a dinner take a dinner home special so we stopped for some food. Ate lots, but not to excess. I only ate half my pasta and had lots of salad. Added it all up when I went home; It was do-able. Of course there was no late dinner after that.

8/1 - 196.6
8/2 - 196.4 I feel like I'm going to hang around 196 for a while
8/3 - 196.6 yup
8/4 - 195.6 drank loads of water went to bed 4 pounds heavier than this and peed it all out, lol, I'm tired now!
8/5 - 196 - 2 glasses of wine and I kept dipping my hand into a bucket of cheeseballs. Alcohol loves salty snacks. Overall a good day and still maintained most of my deficit although I had to weigh the leftover cheeseballs to accurately record their salty deliciousness! Poor little Orange delicacies are now in my snack prison, in the workshop in the tool cupboard, 100 feet away from the house so I have to make a conscious decision to go get em.
8/6 - 196 this is getting to be a habit. Lol

Really struggling to get workouts in and stay within calories. It's not an excuse, but my mom is in hospice care in my home and I'm her primary caregiver. Exercise is my therapy and I really need to try and fit it in.

Tacos, Mac salad, French fries, cookies and wine ugh!!
8/6 - I didn't weigh this morning I had another terrible day food wise and couldn't bear to see a higher # than yesterday.

I think we give the numbers too much power. Think of them as sign posts: oops, made a wrong turn, now a u-turn. It's a journey.

@ehseeker I know this wasn't for me .. but your sound advice given has a powerfully rippling effect! Not meaning to sound hippy-dippy just can't think of a better way to say it!

1/8 204
2/8 204.8 could be water as I've upped my intake
3/8 204.8- no difference better than another gain
4/8 205.2- went out with friends last - did pick a healthy option to eat but had a cheeky drink .. so I'm not surprised about the gain. Just want to start going in the other direction before the end of these 10 days. The good thing that I'm starting to make better food choices and starting to up my exercise, so that's a blessing
5/8 205.6 - still going the wrong way, disappointing
6/8 204.8- hopefully this will be the start of the scale going the right way

My 10 day goal is to get to 349 lbs, stay within my daily calories goal and meet or exceed my daily water goal.

8/01 354.0 up from yesterday after burgers and fries with friends, but did a late night workout and met water goal
8/02 351.4 I'm back to where I was at the end of R12. I took a brisk walk, met my water goal and instead of staying up to snack, I went to bed early. Pretty good day.
8/03 350.8 I joined a squats and abs challenge and did some walking. I'm also working on improving flexibility. Drinking water was a struggle, went over cals.
8/04 348.4 Eating was ok, still need to drink more water
8/05 349.2 drank lots of water, but over cals, woke up tired and sore this morning
8/06 350.2 family gathering yesterday, can't let the weight creep back up

UGW: 130

8/1: 192.2 which is 10lbs lost since my first round!! It's my off day, so (even before I weighed in) I decided to do a mini fast for the day. No meat, no grain. Just veggies/fruit and liquid. I've been feeling heavy, even though I'm losing weight, so hopefully this will help.

8/2: 191.4 yay my plan worked. I feel better/lighter and the scale backed me up lol but its back to my regular routine at work today. Hoping to sustain this progress although I predict a spike tomorrow.

8/3: 191.2 still doing well. Did 14,000+ steps yesterday, and stayed within 1500 bmr calorie limit.

8/4: 188.2 weighed my self three times, sat down for a half hour and weighed again, because I just couldn't believe what I was reading. It made me think about before I started these 10 day challenges. Even though I hated what I saw, I never doubted that I was 200+ lbs, but I can't wrap my head around the numbers going down sometimes. I need to think about why and ways to adjust my reactions. I should rejoice in my hard work paying off, not feel nervous about the results.

8/5: 190.2 that's alright. I did 12, 739 steps yesterday, but I ate at odd times and really didn't get a chance to hydrate. Also, got home so late and I'm super tired today but I still have a full day of work ahead of me.

8/6: 191.1 I wasn't home, but I used my sister's scale

Day/Weight/Comment
8/1: 125.5kg - bounced back up to my starting weight, but I'm only day 3 so I can't complain too much. I guess yesterday was a fluke
8/2: 125.0kg
8/3: 125.9kg - no surprises here. Went to my favourite Italian restaurant for dinner last night. Pasta was eaten. No regrets. I've made better choices today so hopefully will see some improvement in the next few days.
8/4: 125.4kg - stayed under my calories yesterday and just had a great workout so hopefully I'll keep moving in this direction.
8/5: 124.2kg - this is probably another fluke rather than true loss but it was a great motivator for me to stay on track for the day! Curious to see what will happen tomorrow.
8/6: 123.2kg - I was asked to work a double shift yesterday so I was pretty stressed out but still managed to stay within my calorie goal and avoid binging when I finally got home even though I was feeling sorry for myself, so that's a massive non-scale victory for me! I checked this weight multiple times and even moved my scale to different areas of the house to see if it was legit. It is. I peed a LOT yesterday so I'm guessing it's all water weight, but it's still nice to see these low numbers
8/7: 124.0kg - I'm not going to worry about the numbers for the next few days; I'm just weighing to be consistent and keep my streak going. I was on third shift last night and will be for the next three nights, so even though I'll be weighing in the morning it's after my "dinner". And I definitely know that I retain fluid when working thirds.
