JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | Round 19
Replies
-
OK back to reality today. Don't think I'll hit my mini-goal after the long weekend of food and booze but the challenge has definitely helped me make some better choices in the last few days (ALL the walking, sharing meals instead of ordering a full pizza myself etc). Fasting today and drinking plenty of water so will hopefully finish around my start weight for the challenge.
SW - 90kg
CW - 67.7kg
GW - 60kg
Goals: Move/exercise each day + drink more water + keeping focused on the weekend. Hoping to see 66.2kg by the end of the challenge.
10/10 - 66.9kg - First strength session back at the gym in 3 months last night. Hungry all day today!!
10/11 - 66.7kg - 30 minute cross country jog last night, packed extra low cal snacks for work, still focusing on water intake.
10/12 - 66.7kg - I swear the scale flashed 66.4kg for a second haha. Went for a long jog/walk last night, stayed within my calories yesterday and prepped my food today. Feeling like I'm really getting into the swing of things!
10/13 - 66.4kg - I KNEW IT! Haha didn't want to get too excited yesterday but the number on the scale continues to go down. Good thing too, I'm bloody hungry adjusting to lower calories at the moment! No exercise yesterday because of the DOMS and coming into a heavy lifting session tonight. Wooooo Friday fun!
10/14 - 66.1kg - Yes! Heavy weights last night and I've been really keeping on top of my food. Today, it was burgers and pints. It's all about balance right?
10/15 - 68.8kg - I'm very pleased to announce that I'm expecting a food baby! #glowing #soproud
10/16 - 68.6kg - Brewery and gin distillery tours, pizza, mexican feasts, the fun continues!
10/17 - 67.5kg - Water weight, BEGONE!

10/19 - Mini Goal: 61.2kg

10/12 - 152.4 I like this number! I know it will bounce back up before really settling here... this I have learned from these daily weigh ins.
10/13 - 152.2 I’m surprised, presently by this. Had some wine last night, that normally puts me up some.... I’ll take it and hold through the weekend. At least stay under 153. Happy Friday!
10/14 - 152.6 - keep it under 152 for the weekend....I can do this!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 - 223.4 - moving in the right direction again. Hoping this continues. I think I have myself back on track again.
10/11 - 222.0 - had a good workout last night. Did more jogging than I have in years (1/2 mile walk then 1/2 mile jog for two miles; third mile was 3/4 mile walk then 1/4 mile jog - I got tired); lowest number so far so hoping it sticks
10/12 - 221.4 - I'm really happy to see the number continuing to go down. My daily tracking app isn't registering any loss yet, but if this keeps up I know it will. Nose to the grindstone. Another new low!
10/13 - 220.6 - just keeps dropping!
10/14 - 221.6 - I'm OK with this. I went over a by close to 700 calories yesterday and I didn't get to exercise, but calorie wise I think I'll still be under for the week. My morning average is finally moving down and showing a loss though, so I'm excited about that.
10/15 - 221.8 - Still trending down according to my app. Glad to see that my work is finally paying off. Wasn't sure If I would ever get back in the swing of things. Hoping for a good "official" weigh in tomorrow.
10/16 - 220.6 - lowest official weigh in and I couldn't be more thrilled. Going to keep pushing this week.
10/17 - 219.4 - not going to celebrate being out of the 220s quite yet, but so glad things are progressing again. My stall/loss of motivation for a couple weeks was discouraging.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10: 162.4 Frustrated that I am up. I was at my in laws all weekend. Mostly estimating calories although I think I did a good job and got a workout in. Also TOM started, hoping to see it move back down quickly. Will be doing w2d1 of c25k today.
10/11: 161.0 Hoping this number sticks around!
10/12: 159.0 Up at 3:30 AM with an upset stomach. Tired and likely dehydrated. Expecting it will be a bit before I see this number for real.
10/13: 160.2 Liking this number. Yesterday's really doesn't count. Ate a little higher yesterday but was still within range given exercise calories.
10/14: 160.8 Expected. Homemade pizza and a nice glass of wine last night. Still a downward trend!
10/15: 161.6 Ugh. Fighting a cold. Didn't get enough water yesterday. Tired even though I slept all night. I did get w2d3 of c25k done yesterday. Not really concerned with this number. Clearly, I'm a little out of whack this morning...
10/16: 162.2 Considering my day yesterday this is water retention. Still fighting a cold. I feel icky and waking up is the worst. Hoping I will feel good enough to get w3d1 of c25k done today. Light day at work so there is that!
10/17: 159.4 although it first locked in at 160.8. Either I am happy with! After my initial icky wake up I had a solid day. On target and rocked c25k workout.

Goal: Continue to log all my food each day. Be under net calories each day.
10/10 - 260.0 - Yesterday I decided to give myself a cheat day. What a terrible, terrible idea. Not only did I gain (a lot! of) weight, but I was miserable. Bloating, indigestion, heartburn, listlessness. It's truly amazing how much my body has adjusted to my slowly eating better the past month or so. And to think that I used to feel like that EVERY DAY. The way I felt last night and this morning is enough to convince me not to eat like that again.
10/11 - 255.8 - I was not expecting to even get back to where I was, nonetheless to weigh less than that! I really focused on eating better yesterday. I was under my calories and I still exercised the same amount. I feel great today about my weight but also my body feels good! I'm not super bloated or have indigestion. It's amazing just how much eating junk DOES affect your body and how you don't even realize it when that's what you're used to. I'm so glad I'm on this journey - I am seeing now just how miserable I was because I'm not anymore!
10/12 - 255.2 - Wow. Yesterday was a real kick in the face. Found out that I didn't get the job that I endured 3 interviews for and had the person who DID get the job flaunt it. I was really, really down after that. I wanted to just eat a big, messy dinner of hot wings and french fries and ice cream. But I was good. I ate under my calories, I got over 10K steps, and I continued the 30 day workout I've been doing. I didn't sleep well, but that's to be expected. I woke up with a small weight loss. While I'm still pretty down about this missed opportunity, sticking to my better habits and seeing the pay off of that helps take the sting out a little bit.
Tonight we have an event at my child's school - dinner is provided. Not really sure how to plan my day because they change up the dinner option each month. I'm just going to try to eat the rest of the day how I have been and make sure to get all my steps before the event. That way, if it's something really high calorie, I'll be able to work it off when I get home
10/13 - 254.4 - Yesterday, the hiring manager of the job I interviewed for called me personally to tell me that it was neck and neck between me and the other person and that I answered all their questions well - that there wasn't anything I could have done better. She's hoping to hire more people and she said she would keep my name at the top of her list and reach out to me if/when that happens. So, that really did kind of pick my mood up - I'm not a total failure haha. Last night we had dinner at the school - it was pizza. Two pieces still had me under my calorie goal, so I had some bacon when I got home (and was still under!!). I'm really starting to feel good. I'm energized, my body doesn't hurt, my digestive system is working much more normally. And I'm losing weight! I feel more motivated now than I have in a while I can't wait to surpass this goal and set the next one!
10/14 - 252.4 - Got a lot of sleep, so it's been like 15 hours since I last ate. Still staying hopeful that I'll continue this downtrend, that this isn't just a fluke I'm so close to the 240s, I can't wait to be there!
10/15 - 252.6 - I wasn't sure if TOM would affect me. Now I know. Yesterday I got a decent night's sleep, was under calories, and exercised. It's a small gain, but here's to hoping it's the only gain I have during TOM. Tonight is pizza night with the in-laws, so I'm going to be really diligent today.
10/16 - 251.2 - Yesterday was an easy day. I ate my 4 pieces of pizza for dinner, but I planned the rest of my day around it and made sure to get my exercise in. I feel really good about today's weigh-in. Now I really REALLY want to be in the 240s by the end of this round - it would be a great birthday present to myself!
10/17 - 253.4 - Well, I had a cheat meal yesterday. But I wanted my net calories to be in the green, so I ended up walking 14K steps. Still gained, though. I figure it has something to do with the amount of sodium or fat or lack of sleep, or some combination. Not too discouraged though, I walked 14k steps!! Looking forward to a loss tomorrow

giving 10 days, for my 2nd round!
SW 198
UGW 145-149
Round 18 average weight 176.6
Start this round 177.0
Goal this round <173
10/10 177.0
this makes me feel like I've made no progress, as the previous round I had several days at 175. But It's probably still just water weight from vacation. I also am having a tough time getting back in the game mentally. I want to eat salty and sugary things, not fruits and vegetables! Ok.. enough whining. Plan for today is to stick with the plan. Measure my portions and drink all my water.
10/11 176.2 scale is moving in the correct direction. Another 1.2 and I'll be back to my low weight of last round. I really didn't think it would take this long! But oh well keep moving on! I did have a (large) glass of wine last night. Still within my calories so no problems there. Hit the gym this AM and ran a mile, then my weight program (Strong Curves) and had an amazing bowl of oatmeal with peaches, flax, chia, and protein powder. .so yummy!
10/12 175.6 I'm still not down to last week's low, but at least the scale is in the right direction
10/13 175.6 have a gala to go to tonight. eat beforehand, don't eat at the catered event? eat 2 smaller meals today and hope for the best tonight? those things are so impossible to track and I want the scale to be DOWN tomorrow, not up
10/14 177.2 welp, that's 1.5 lbs of water from eating salty snacks last night. I'm estimating that I ate a bit over maintenance yesterday mostly due to alcohol and tortilla chips! but.. resuming my regularly scheduled programming today (with a bit of a hangover). Next a road trip for the next couple of days.. gotta hang tight and bring my travel scale with me to make sure I don't go over!
10/15 traveling no scale
10/16 traveling no scale
10/17 179.6 wah.. well I stayed within my calories on one day and went only slightly over on the other. but I ate pizza, and had some drinks. Hopefully this will drop off quickly, but I don't think I'm going to see my goal this round. Fortunately I have no trips planned for quite a bit, so can tighten up my eating and get the scale moving the correct direction.

Back again! I started midway through Round 2 at 153.9 on 4/29. Ended Round 18 at 141.8. For this round I'd like to get below and stay below 140. Started at 162 something back in early March so I'm down over 20 pounds. I am aiming to reach goal of 132 before New Years.
10/9 141.8
10/10- 140.6 Gym and pool yesterday. Pool again today.
10/11- 141 .. Did pool class, ran around errands and went to movies late which equalled some - not a lot - of candy beyond when I usually stop eating. Didn't get much sleep. I'll be back down tomorrow.
10/12- 141.2 Slept a lot yesterday. Swollen lymph gland, blah humbug.
10/13- 141.6 Wrong direction.
10/14- 141 ok, some better. Did gym and pool class yesterday. Also, a little gardening. Half way through this round. I need to lose at least 1.1 # to reach goal. Fingers crossed.
10/15- 141.4 Water retention from a couple of dirty martinis? Walked in the park for a while. Going to get to gym and outside for a bit today.
10/16- 141.4 Well this is starting to get disheartening. I've been bouncing around this number for a month despite exercise and diet. I did 70 min on ellip yesterday, a little high on carbs but at goal for cals. Lots of water. Sigh
10/17- 141.6 Could swear. Did pool class yesterday. ate sensibly but maybe too many of calories were at end of day thanks to a long nap.

Hello my dear friends! Here we go again! I think this is my round 18...believe I started in round 2. Weighing in daily has been instrumental in my success over the last 6 months, it's not all down...believe me!! I've had lots of fluctuations but don't let the daily (or even weekly) blips set me back...onward and downward!!
SW in March - 182.4
GW - to maintain between 145-150...but I want to hit 145 first
10/09 - 147.2 - coming in from round 18
Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 - 148.6 - weighed this morning but just getting online now to check in. Felt really puffy when I woke up...too much stuffing and turkey leftovers...and not enough water.
10/11 - 147.6 - been tracking breakfast lunch and snacks to keep them in check and then eating a reasonable dinner, figure I'd try it for a bit to see if that's a good way for me to manage maintenance since I'm almost there.
10/12 - 146.4 - YAY....long weekend bloat is gone! Could tell this was going to happen by the trips to the bathroom yesterday LOL....
10/13 - 146.8 - Have a feeling I'm going to bounce around 146 a bit...trying to take these last couple of pounds slowly. I feel great today though!! Looking forward to a very busy weekend shuttling kids around to hockey and scouts events...need to make sure I put in some time with the kettlebells, it's been a while!!
10/14 -145.6 - So much for yesterday's theory LOL....it was one of those days I forgot to eat... we had appointments at meal times etc so I under ate big time as I didn't prepare proper meals. Today we have hockey over lunch time so I might just indulge in some rink fries to make up for it
10/15 - 146.2 - This is kind of where I expected to be yesterday.
10/16 - 145.8 - like seeing that 145 number again. Hubby is away at a conference this week...makes food prep easier and more difficult at the same time as it means I'm more likely to make something completely different for myself than the boys...but if I still cook for two it lasts me two days....
10/17 - 146.6 - Normal fluctuation...calories and activity were good yesterday so this is just a blip. I expect long term maintenance will look a lot like this week...

10/13 183.6 - Not sure what to say except yay! Maybe I can get back to my starting weight of this round.
10/14 180.6 - I'm doing a happy dance! We have a friend's birthday party tonight, so there will be drinking and dancing. I'm going to hope that the dancing will offset the drinking
10/15 181.2 - not as bad as I thought it would be. Maybe, just maybe I can make it to my goal weight for this round.
10/16 184.4 - And back again! We have interviews so I'll be running around all over the place this morning. Maybe that'll make a difference.

10/12 - 175.8 - It's a good thing!

Not sure what weight goal I have except to NOT gain this round!:)
End of the year goal has always been 105 lbs.
10/10 107 lbs
10/11 106.5
10/12 106.2 - over Calories yesterday so seems false but wouldn't it be wonderful . . . won't it be wonderful when I land at 105 permanently.
10/13 105.8 - a little over Calories again - this is weird.
10/14 106.8 - ate horribly yesterday - too much Halloween candy, not sure what happened
10/15 107 - ate too much again, hungry all day.
10/16 107.8 - guess what . . .
10/17 108.2 - this is temporary, I'm back on track as of yesterday.

10/10: 218.4
All right! Here we go for another round! Will it be good? Will it be bad? Wo o o o! Only the shadow knows for sure!
10/11: 217
Got a call yesterday to come in for the second part of my sleep study! Made sure to ask for a scale this morning before taking a shower; weighed 217. Been riding most of the day; but I resisted stopping for fast food! Hope this number sticks around this time! If I say "pretty please" will you stay?
10/12: 219
Well, it is evident that saying 'pretty please' did not work . That Turkey chili I made was low on calories and fat but high on sodium! Watching sodium intake is crucial to weight loss for me! Will do better today; already pre planned my meals for today! Now, I just need to drink enough water to flush away all this salt!
10/13: 217.8
Drank lots of water yesterday; was way under on sodium! Had all my meals planned for today then my granddaughter invited me to lunch! Oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men so often go astray!
10/14: 217.9
I like this number! Went to lunch yesterday with 2 of my granddaughters and my daughter at Golden Corral. Loaded up on vegetables and baked fish! Couldn't resist the desserts though! Had very small piece of Carrot cake and bread pudding! Didn't get in hardly any water, but only ate 3 waffle cookies (69 cal.) for the rest of the day! Today is my great grandson's birthday, so I expect I won't have the good choices I had yesterday!
10/15: 220.2
Too much sodium not enough water!
10/16: 218.1
Surprise! Made homemade mac n cheese yesterday, and ate too much! Did get in a little more water. Had a doctor appt. this morning, and my water is always slack when I'm away from home. Alarm didn't go off this morning, so I missed my exercise! May work something in tomorrow!
10/17: 219.8
Kept hoping this would go down, but it didn't; could it be the 2 pieces of birthday cake I ate
or the water I didn't drink enough of ? But for the good news, I did get my exercise in today to make up for missing yesterday

@tishawj OH! I understand that completely! Now with just 2 of us and retired, I fix my "stinky" vegetables and DH just has to suffer.
@clynnwoodard I feel your pain! I've been at the same weight +/- 0.5 for a month. GIVE IT UP BODY!!!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 155.5
10/11 158 WTH? I have no words! Maybe what I ate for dinner was high sodium? As a side note, it's finally cooling off in Las Vegas so I will need to be mindful of water intake! No high above 88 (today) for the next 15 days.
10/12 155.5 Right on macros, over calories- 10 oz white zin because I couldn't dump it down the drain, 5 or 6 quarts of water!
10/13 155.5 AGAIN!
10/14 155 Such a busy day yesterday! We spent about 5.5 hrs at the Ren faire, took the cat for booster shot, and went to grandson's football game! 253% of my (super low) step goal and most of it with a gallon of water in my backpack! Only allowed to take 1 bottle of drinking water into the fair so a liter lasted me all day. Since I do IF & Keto, and I'm not a breakfast person, I was going to get something to eat at the fair BUT $7 for a hot dog or $12 for a turkey leg (chips, drink, etc extra!) is insane, IMHO. So I didn't eat anything until we were almost home and stopped at McDonald's. Not good food but satisfying. I had to make up the water deficit after we finally got home at 9:30pm. Today quilt guild board meeting. Need to get going!
10/15 155 (naked as always) I really want to see 154 by the 18th. At WW - official weigh in clothed 157, exactly what my scale said. Still feeling water deprived from Friday. My mouth feels shriveled.
10/16 155 No appetite, feel as if I'm catching a cold. Loading up on supplements! Finally my mouth does not feel shriveled! I have never noticed that after a low water day.
10/17 155.5. Let it go, let it go... (Can you hear the music?)4 -

Goal R19: Last round was tough (lax tracking, going over calories, less exercise, generally not giving a *kitten* -- though I did keep walking). My goal this round is to track religiously and eat and drink mindfully (slowly, tracking hunger cues, eating less restaurant and processed food). No weight goal this time because I need to focus on getting my head back in the game.
10/10: 194.2
10/11: 195.2 — sick. Horrible scratchy sore throat.
10/12: 193.8
10/13: 193.8 — still battling this cold. Didn’t do great with enormous piece of cake spouse brought home last night, but didn’t do terribly either. There’s still some left in the fridge. Goal is to ignore it today and save it for spouse after work.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10--222.6 Whoosh. Let's see if this will hold.
10/11--222.4 I will be weightlifting tonight for the first time in over a week, let's see what the scale says tomorrow.
10/12--222.4 Went to the gym yesterday even though I didn't want to go, but then I remembered that I had already posted that I would be weightlifting, so I went. It wasn't pretty, but I got my lifting done. Stretched yesterday.
10/13--222.8 Normal fluctuation. Stretched yesterday.
10/14--222.6 One word for today...WATER!!!
10/15--222.2 Got in my water yesterday and it definitely made a difference. Today I'm going to make sure to keep up with my water. Going out for my tennis lesson this morning and then going out for dinner later. Stretched yesterday.
10/16--223.7 Dinner last night and feeling bloated this morning. This past weekend has been a success in that even though I usually struggle to drink my water on the weekends, this weekend I easily kept myself hydrated.
10/17--223.1 There goes some of the water weight. Still feel bloated. Would love to get back into the 222's before the end of this round.

SO almost got to come home but no off to another project.
