JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - Round 43

anita7164 · June 2018

6/13 192 lbs great choices for breakfast and lunch. Planned what I was eating. Did not have any of the donut holes at work. I told myself ‘you’ve had those before, not so great. So leave them alone’. And I did. 3.59 mile run/walk. Easy walk for 1.36 miles for cool down. Had very cold, very good fresh fruit for dinner. Wasn’t very caloric but it’s what I needed. Didn’t eat pretzels but I did have plantain chips. Traded one salty snack for another. Only good thing is the plantain chips are less calories than the pretzels. Did various 30 day challenges. At this point, I am working to get back to the weight at the beginning of this round - 189. Let’s see if that happens.

6/14 192 lbs AM: various 30 day challenges. No other exercise today. Went 678 calories over. No breakfast because I craved fried chicken wings and French fries from Chinese spot. Dinner was crap at a meeting. Won’t get back to starting round weight. Good point: no pretzels! I’m thinking maybe I should just have the pretzels as I seem to be eating everything else!?!?

Day/Weight/Comment
6/08 - 62.6kg (-0.4kg) - Christened our new BBQ yesterday and got a lot of veggies in. Resisted the last half a krispy kreme hanging about the house. I wish my partner would just hurry up and eat it already!
6/07 - 62.6kg (0.0kg)- Weigh in was a pleasant surprise after a big carby dinner last night. I succumbed to that stupid half a doughnut as well - I just got sick of looking at it haha. Lots of incidental exercise today and a light dinner planned.
6/08 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - I'm very excited and very dubious. I'm off sick with a cold so it is likely that the loss is dehydration. Still cool to see that 61.xx number

Aiming for my goal weight of under 60kg by my birthday on the 9th July so it's potentially only one month to go! Let's do this!!
6/09 - 62.3kg (+0.4kg)- I'm ok with this. Had a BBQ at a friend's house with lots of delicious food and drinks. Still trending downwards too

6/10 - 62.3kg (0.0kg) - Had a light eating day yesterday and today. Feeling motivated and super excited to see my weight staying under the 63s (despite a little weekend indulgence)
6/11 - 62.6kg (+0.3kg) -

Note to self: Long-term consistency will overcome daily fluctuations. Keep focused on your targets, keep doing what you're doing and you will achieve your goals.
6/12 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - Bye bye weekend weight. Went for another run last night which was easier than the run last week

Also, I think I might be approaching the upper limit of my maintenance range. For the first time in my life I think I can say that I like my body - a combination of weight loss and self-acceptance/love. Only took 30 years!
6/13 - 61.7kg (-0.2kg) - I am expecting a stressful work situation to come to a head today. I refuse(!) to be derailed by stress eating so am planning a long walk in the woods to relax and reflect before coming home for dinner.
6/14 - 61.7kg (0.0kg) - Well, you can't lose weight every single day can you? I had planned a run today but it's gale-force winds and rain outside. Yoga maybe? Feeling a bit deflated and down in general. At least my weight loss is going well, I guess! Only 0.2kg to my R43 goal.

6/15 - 61.6kg (-0.1kg) - Ooo it's a cliff hanger! 0.1kg to go and a scale flashing low battery! Will I make it to goal tomorrow? Will my scale still be alive? Will I find my stash of scale batteries, lose that last 0.1kg and save the day? Stay tuned folks haha

6/07 - 160.7 Ready to take on these next 10 days with discipline and self-control!
6/08 - 159.0 Great day yesterday! Didn’t feel deprived, but I was able to stay in control of my eating.
6/09 - 161.0. Unexpected grill out at my parents’ last night and went a little overboard. Back on track for the rest of the weekend.
6/10 - didn’t weigh - race day
6/11 - 160.1 I competed in a triathlon yesterday and I always struggle with my eating the day of a race. I’m tired, I’m hungry. I didn’t do great, but I did better than I usually do.
6/12 - 159.9 Went out to dinner and tried not to overstuff myself. Brought home lots of leftovers! No plans over the next few days so time to buckle down!
6/13 - 161.0 Tired of this roller coaster.
6/14 - 158.5 Focused on getting lots of protein yesterday. I was so full all day! But look what happened - major loss on the scale. Day two focusing on protein begins today!
6/15 - 156.4. Something has finally clicked! If I focus on getting 100+ grams on protein a day, then I feel completely satiated, my sugar cravings go way down, and the weight starts falling off. No calorie counting necessary, which is very freeing. I’m still inputting my food as I learn what I need to eat to hit that protein target, so I know I’ve been in my calorie range. But no more “bargaining” with myself over what I can eat and not eat to stay in my calorie goals. I fill up my plate with veggies and protein and I feel so stuffed I don’t want to eat anything else. I feel like I have turned a corner. I’m starting day 3 of this new focus and I’m hopeful I can keep it up. I’m excited to see where the near future will take me!

6/9 – 191lbs – makes no cents but we all know it happens even when we eat right.
6/10 – 191lbs – eat good. Had an entire jar of pickles 3 days in a row now. love them but maybe to much salt.
6/11 190lbs – no pickles and down a pound over the weekend. That’s unheard of !!!!!!!
6/12 – 190lbs – fasting for blood test later today. hope the 40lbs loss gets some of my meds lowered!!!
6/13 – 189lbs – really surprised by this since I had Asian buffet for lunch and pizza out on the boat fishing. It was hot and the bugs may have nibbled off the pound. Oh well it puts me back to starting weight.
6/14 -191lbs – 3 big homemade lake Michigan steelhead tacos.dang good, to good!!! Also had late nigh binge on my homemade 10 hour smoked BBQ ribs.

Day/Weight/Comment

6/07 - 167.5 - I'm down today, but we celebrated a birthday last night and I went over my weight loss calories. I'm expecting a little bump up tomorrow, but this is a nice way to start.

6/08 - 166.5 - I got on the scale 3 times to be sure. I doubt this sticks, but it's so nice to see that number!

6/09 - 167.5 - I had a feeling this was where it was going to be today. I've also just celebrated my husband's birthday with cake and margarita's, so tomorrow probably won't be much better, but I'll be back on track after tomorrow.

6/10 - 168.5 - Woohoo, those margarita's with the salt rimmed glasses were good! I am so glad I joined this group so I can be held accountable for these little celebrations and then get back on the wagon. The worst thing I could do is to let this weight gain take hold and keep gaining a couple pounds every month as I've done in the past.

6/11 - 168.5 - I'm glad the gaining has stopped. I hope to see a drop in the next couple days.

6/12 - 167.5 - I'm very happy with this.

6/13 - 167.5 - After a 10 day stay, our out of town family left for home this morning, so my eating and steps should stabilize now. I would love to see that 166.5 number again before this challenge is over.

6/14 - 166 - OK, I'm a little skeptical of the quick drop, but I'll take it and hope it sticks.

6/15 - 167.5 - My scale giveth and then my scale taketh away!!! I've stuck to my weight loss calories for the past few days, so I'm not sweating this.

My official weekly weigh in, is Tuesday evening @ TOPS, so my ticker tape will reflect that loss.

My ultimate goal is 175lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

am in! Going to try a little different follow-up by adding my final weights from each round. So even though I have been doing this off and on for a while. Let's see if that doesn't give me some additional motivation (just not going to go back to look up the weights, will go from this point forward). Bring it on Round #43! I will be on the move beginning 6/10, so not sure about scale availability.

6/09 140.2# We went out for an early Father's Day celebration. That's my excuse. Leaving tomorrow for 4 days. Hope things get better. When I went to buy snacks, I passed up all the chocolate that looked enticing, for healthier but delicious other snacks i.e. fruit, nuts...

Just Give Me 10 Days

Hello! Joining in late. Please don’t flay me if I’m breaking some kind of unspoken rule. I weigh myself everyday but don’t log it because I think I’ll jinx myself. I usually log loss once it stays under for a few days. This might be a great way for me to document my weight every day.

5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again and then some.

Round 43 (My Round 1)

6/07- Entered round late.
6/08- Entered round late.
6/09- Entered round late.
6/10- 240.4 Proud of myself for exhibiting self control yesterday. Had to go to a Chinese buffet for a lunch thing. I made better food choices, did not over-eat, and stayed under my calorie budget for the day.
6/11- 239.8 Woohoo! Still cautiously optimistic as I’m still waiting for that initial massive loss to steady out. 10lbs in 2 weeks seems too good to be true. Does anyone know if that initially loss comes back a little? Did good yesterday food wise.
6/12- 239.2 Pizza was provided at lunch meeting. I walked away and ate my tuna instead. I did go back and ate the toppings off a slice of the chicken and veggies. Still a win, I think. I was just under calories goal today but felt hungry. Need to eat more protein.
6/13- 238! <insert Austin Powers voice>. Yea Baby! Trucking along nicely. Under calories yesterday but did not feel hugger. Onwards and downwards!
6/14- 238. Womp womp. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed after logging such a nice loss yesterday. Trying to stay positive and remember that at least it maintained but it’s difficult. Going to work hard to not let it get to my head. Was well within my calories and hit my protein goal yesterday. Possible reason for maintaining is that I may be PMSing. Light cramps yesterday and this morning. AF may be finally returning after last baby in January.
6/15- 238.2 Making history here with actually logging a gain while actively trying to lose weight. I was within calories and ate enough protein. Didn’t log water but I think I didn’t drink enough. AF hasn’t arrived. Trying not to over analyze the small gain.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07 - 170.6 - +2.2 from 06/06, restaurant dinner last night & no gym
6/08 - 170.6 - no loss from yesterday but today’s my weekly weigh in and I’m down 1.4 from last week!
6/09 - traveling - couldn’t weigh but I know it’ll be a gain because of all the food last night. Was worth it tho! Will just have a good week to make up for it
6/10 - 172.0 - operation “make up for the weekend” has officially started
6/11 - 172.4 - I have a feeling it’s going to be one of those weeks where I eat within deficit and workout but the scale number goes up. Happens every couple weeks for me
6/12 - 170.8 - finally headed back in the right direction!
6/13 - 169.4 - worked really hard on my deficit and exercise yesterday and glad to see it shown in the scale!
6/14 - 171.6 - no explanation for this. Yesterday was a decent calorie day and a really good exercise one. Who knows!
6/15 - 169.4 - yay! I’m going to an amusement park today which means a lot of walking, a lot of heat, take out style food and probably not enough water. Tomorrow may not be a pretty weigh in!
6/16 -
