Round 43/Round 1 for me
SW: 152.7
UGW: 125
RGW: 130/135
Weekly goal: lose one pound, exercise 6 days a week a minimum of 30 minutes. Minimum 30 minutes cardio daily.
6/10: 152.7 - humbling moment after not weighing myself for two years
6/11: 151.5 - in an ironic twist of fate I ate lots of "naughty food yesterday but kept portions in check and lost a pound. Got in lots of exercise so that helped I suppose. Getting back in the swing of logging everything. Today's goal is to continue to log and up my protein intake -- trying to balance macros better.
6/12: 151.7 - kinda what I expected. No exercise yesterday, too much salt in my diet yesterday, three days till estimated TOM start day, whole lot of insomnia last night. Suffering from really bad allergies, headache and asthma, smoke in the air from wildfires and I don't feel like doing a darn thing. Today I'm focusing on gallons of water!
6/13: 152.6 - back to where I started, ugh. PMS, bloat, emotional eating last night and no exercise the last two days. Zero motivation. Trying to not beat myself up and instead treat myself gently and get curious about why I feel so stuck and unmotivated and frankly, depressed. Trusting it's just the standard PMS hormones that will hopefully resolve on Friday or Saturday.

Definitely in again. This helps so much with keeping attentive to both long and short term goals, seeing what is actually working and what’s sabotaging my efforts.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07, Thursday – 161.6 Yay! Finally made it to the 161’s although I realize to get to my goal for this round will take consistency every day.
6/08, Friday – 162 Potluck tonight so will have to resolve to be careful especially after I get home and not fall into the “I have no clue how to chart what I ate so let’s just take a night off mode.”
6/09, Saturday – 162.2 Not awful but could have done better last night. Inspired by Ellie7187 “Will just have a good week to make up for it.” Getting discouraged definitely doesn’t help.
6/10, Sunday – 161.8
6/11, Monday- 160.8 So happy with this! It has been a long time. Ate OK on the weekend but I think this is more a result of the last months of hanging in there. Doing some sewing and I measured my hips and down 2”. It’s when I start trying on some clothes that I used to wear that I realize how dishonest I have been with myself. The “I guess I’ve gained a bit” was actually 20# and now I’ve lost about 6# of it.
6/12, Tuesday – 161.2 No gym today but lots of gardening (I hope). Beautiful sunny day after a weekend of cold and rain.
6/13, Wednesday – 160.6 Feel I don’t quite deserve this as snacking last night after coming in from working in the garden. Love working in the evening, so peaceful and quiet but somehow makes me feel like I should eat something and then feel so draggy in the morning. Off to the gym to clear my head, hopefully. So do not feel like going but hubby caught a ride just so I could use the car to get to the gym so that is pushing me out the door.

R43: SW: 218.2
Day/Weight/Comment
6/07--219.2 I have no idea where the increase came from. Working on water today.
6/08--218.2 There it goes. Got my water in yesterday.
6/09--218.0 Going back down slowly. Working on making sure I get my water in this weekend. It's supposed to be a rainy weekend so I am planning on getting out when there is a break in the weather and get my steps in.
6/10--219.2 Chinese food water retention. Based on my past experience the water weight will stick around for 2-3 days. Got my steps in yesterday and already did Kettlebell for today. Going out to a bbq today, so it will be a good challenge for me to stay focussed on my balanced eating.
6/11--219.3 Surprised it wasn't higher. Between the soreness from Kettlebell and the small amount of water I drank yesterday, I was expecting more water weight to show up on the scale. I kept within my calories yesterday even though I went the bbq, so that was a success.
6/12--219.5 Sore from Kettlebell and not a great sleep. This has been a weird round for the scale. I will just keep doing what I need to do and let the scale do what the scale wants to do. Got walk in yesterday.
6/13--219.3 Woke up feeling heavy this morning. I looked back over my food diary and realized that for the past few days I have had little to no vegetables and very little fiber. I am going to work on increasing both over the next few days and see how I feel/

6/13 - 238. I recall a few rounds ago I was 229. Disappointing to write this but also glad I have the accountability. Today I am focusing on tracking calories, everything that I eat, and increasing my water intake. I don't really have a goal till the end of the round, just perhaps staying away from overeating. *let's see*

7: 201... Had company from out of state last night and ate a late supper with a bit of wine. It was a nice evening with friends. Taking the kids on a family day trip today, and will just enjoy whatever meals are available as I'm not sure where we'll end up eating. Spontaneous quality family time day to just enjoy each other and life! I may or may not log, but I imagine the scale will go up tomorrow. This kind of feels like my "weekend."
8: 203.1... Not so very long ago, I would've been ashamed to post this kind of weight jump. Today, I'm not. I enjoyed a "day off" and am easily observing the aftermath without judgement. Yesterday, I didn't follow my usual IF hours and found myself much hungrier than is normal for me these days. The hunger is likely also correlated to my approaching TOM. I made some healthy choices yesterday and some not so healthy ones. The scale reflects that. This morning, I also experienced increased hunger, but I stuck to IF. Ate some things I normally wouldn't due to traveling. I'm significantly over my calories, even with a 90-minute walk. But all is well. I'm happy with where I'm at on this journey and eagerly looking forward to where I want to be. I spend time acknowledging how far I've come and how much easier the process is for me when I lighten up and don't judge or shame myself. I'm not stressing about needing to see a certain number. I just know that I'll get there. I love and accept my body the way it is for all that it has gotten me through. This abdomen has carried three beautiful children. These hips widened to allow their passage into the world. These thighs are strong and have walked me through military training, a combat deployment, many personal challenges, and thousands of miles of personal reflection and renewal. I look in the mirror and like what I see, and I see my body changing to reflect my positive thoughts surrounding it. It's a beautiful life and a beautiful day. I hope you all are enjoying yours! ❤️
9: 204... Attack of the late night munchies. Stayed in bed until noon today. Pre-TOM symptoms are full force!
10: 203... I did well yesterday. I ended up over calories by 64, but that still puts me way below maintenance. Got up and took a walk in the rain this morning and met my step goal before noon. Looking forward to seeing another drop tomorrow.
11: 203...TOM today or tomorrow. Should see my usual drop after it starts.
12: 201.6...and there it is. TOM started this morning. Yesterday, we rejoined a different gym than our current one. It doesn't open until July 3rd because it's still being built, but I can hardly wait for a free personal trainer for 30 days and free TRX classes offered 3 times a day!
13: 203... Not sure what that's about. Hmm.

@tiabirdie56 Thank you! I’m so happy I found this group, too.
@puddlegoober When I was “absent” I averaged the days I was able to weigh. I think it worked out to the first 5 days of one round and the last 5 of the next. Enjoy your vacation. Best of luck with your wife. If she uses that sentence just tell her, “Maybe I can’t.” I was told years ago the DH was either Dear Husband or Damn Husband- dumb works too, sometimes but generally Dear. Thanks for the kudos!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
6/7 136.5 I was feeling frustrated when I weighed this morning until I realized, I am still below my original goal weight. Working on changing my mind set.

6/9 136.5

6/11 135.0. Yesterday we cleaned our daughter’s carpets since they were gone until last night. Lots of going up and down stairs which I would not have been able to do a year ago due to knee pain. THANK YOU KETO!
6/12 135.5 Awake and up before 5. Too darn early! Today is my 1 year JGM10D anniversary. Although I was getting ready to be taking several trips before mid-July I decided I would use 10 days JUST ONCE. I didn’t realize it would go on forever but I am so glad it has. It’s my better addiction!
6/13 135.5 Early weigh in and Late post as I had to finish an ebook before it was retrieved. I have been very distracted lately. I took one of our granddaughters to lunch yesterday and then we walked around the mall. Got over 130% of my step goal. Ate all Keto but too much. I need to get my focus back. DH is stressing over the work the landscaper has done and says he should have done it himself.
