7/17--177.2 Going back down. It was sooo hard to lose these few pounds, apparently I wanted to do it all over again They came back on over a few days of getting off track, so hopefully they will go away just as quickly. Fingers crossed!

I would love to join in. Hope it's not too late? Been a long time MFP member, but got sidetracked when I went back to school. Just finished up my bachelor degree, so now it's time to get back on track. Would love to be down 30 lbs. by October 19th (have a vacation/concert trip planned). My last vacation was not that much fun because walking for an extended amount of time was painful and my weight really is a problem with my asthma. Makes it difficult to breathe while walking for so long. I'm hoping taking it 10 days at a time will help keep me on track and the support from this community will be a great motivator.

7/17 / 227.6 at 6:10 / Backing away from my muscle repair and pho water retention. Another good eating day in the books yesterday and I woke up much more limber than yesterday morning!

7/18 / 227.4 at 7:20 / Feeling great. I'm experimenting with going meatless some days and finding it pretty easy. That helps me ensure that I'm getting plenty of fruits and veggies those days, and I try new foods that way, too. And 5 days since last Monday I've had days where I only drank water or (one day) tea. These little challenges are keeping me on my toes and very conscious of what I'm eating, which is a great thing for me, as I can get very much in a rut.

Change of plans for this round...I've decided to stop worrying about these last 8-13 pounds and focus on eating healthfully most of the time at or just below maintenance, getting a variety of exercise, and generally making the most of the summer. As long as I don't gain, everything is fine. If I lose a little, all the better. I also aim to reboot my daily meditation practice, which I used to do faithfully. It's all part of the picture.

Goals:
Food ~~ 1430 calories; P 15-25%, C 35-50%, F 25-35%; mostly clean & healthful
Exercise: 60 minutes/day of walking/swimming + yoga/stretch class 3X/week
Weight ~~ maintain or lose slowly.

Day/Moving Ave Weight/Calories Day Before/10-day calorie ave/Exercise/Comment

7/17 - 148.4 - 1495 - 10-day ave 1422 - 30-min walk-run intervals
I've been driving myself crazy about not losing despite cutting back to the point of going hungry, so I've changed my goals a bit. I'll be aiming for my sedentary maintenance calories (1430) plus up to half of what I earn in exercise -- happily, I'm finally back to daily walks/swimming and I'm looking at bikes. Now to resume weight training.... I've also changed my weight goal to 140, which will put me in the "normal" BMI range. I may eventually want to lose another 5-10, but I need to stop obsessing about that.

7/18 - 148.5 - 1401 - 10-day ave 1423 - 90-min slow zoo walk
Good day yesterday, although I had a bit more sodium than usual (and my actual weight went up). Last evening we went to the zoo and walked around the Indonesian Rain Forest exhibit for about 90 minutes, which was wonderful. Here's one of the photos I took of 4-yr-old Sumatra Orangutan Asmara. She's great fun to watch, and she likes to interact (through the glass) with her fans.

Age 60, 5'4.5" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me. Changed MFP setting 5/5/18 [R39] to 1/2# per week loss ~ within 10# of UGW, weight loss had stalled 3 months + was feeling hungry more often.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145 / no goal dates ~ I get there when I get there
Thrilled with my 2/15/18 annual physical: BP 110/68, pulse 64 and BMI 26.14
Ecstatic with my 5/15/18 annual workplace Health Risk Assessment: waist smallest since 2007 and BMI 25.6

My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.

Day/Weight/Comment

07/17 - Weight = 159.0 (down .6 from yesterday) I'm *hopefully* solidly under 160 after 3 days of weighing under that. 1st milestone achieved! Very happy to get to this number, this is the lowest I've weighed this year, haven't been this weight since December of last year. Yesterday was super hot and humid and my day 29 exercise challenge was power yoga which was really like a hot yoga with the buckets of sweat that fell off me. Today I compete my 30 day challenge with a full body Tabata style workout. Looking forward to the next 10 days, this is the best challenge on mfp!

07/18 - Weight = 158.1 (down .9 from yesterday) I had Subway for lunch yesterday - UGH! I haven't had any type of fast food in over 30 days and wow did I feel awful after it. I limit gluten most days, because I just feel better when I do that, but add in processed gluten like Subway's bread and I was so nauseous I didn't eat anything else really the rest of the day because of how I felt, so super low calories day which isn't great. Exercise wise, the day was AWESOME!!! I completed day 30 of the 30 day challenge I was doing and it was a super intense Total Body Tabata workout: Star Jumps, Reverse Table Top Dips, Skater Twists, Supermans, Reverse Burpees, & Pike Push-Ups. I'm crazy pound of myself for completing this and the changes from it I can really see and more importantly feel, like how much stronger I am now compared to where I started. I've given myself 2 days "off" to have a little break and decide which program I am doing next, still trying to decide between another 30 day or the 90 day. I was fairly certain yesterday about going with the 30 but this morning I feel more like the 90 day program is in the lead.

Day/Weight/Comment

7/17 - 148.6 - I wasn't feeling very well at the end of last round and just starting to feel better today so my weight might be off for a few days until I'm eating normally again. Would love this number to stick around right through the next 10 days though.

7/18 - 150.0 - Not worried about the weight increase, I'm still in a downward trend but feeling just an overall "blah" with life in general right now. Need to find a way to get out of this weird funk I'm in.

7/17 184.2 bad start to my week calories wise, but I did workout, I did day 5 of the 30 day shred, and although I haven't worked out 5 days consistently im at least working out. I need to do better.

7/18 I83.4 I didnt workout yesterday nor this morning I just felt so tired and slept through. Last week I started good like I always do but then the 2nd week comes and I drag, I'm not watching what I eat as much but I'm still trying to work out in the afternoon,at least it helps me stay the same, but that's not why I'm here. IM HERE TO LOOSE THE WEIGHT. I'm going to prep for the rest of the week, because the next 2 weekends I'm going out of town. I have to at least be under 180.

7/17/2018: 104.6 - I can always tell when it's Tuesday because my weight is more in check. somehow I build momentum up on Friday late afternoon and keep it up for 4 days and then have treats.... SO, I've admitted and defined my cycle of eating. Now I need to make an improvement.

One thing I've been doing is listening to a podcast: primal potential (dot com) and I have a sign on my desk stating "to make tomorrow easier, WHAT do I need to do TODAY?" and I am reminding myself "My minimum needs are met. I am OKAY. I just need to make it through the next 5 minutes. I can make it 5 more minutes. I'm Okay. I am Safe. I am good. I love myself enough to take care of myself."


Day/Weight/Comment

7/18 - Not weighing in today. Took caliper measurements, on point. Took waist measurement - on point. So I'm happy. Leg day this morning. Felt really good. Hoping for a couple walks. Tracked my breakfast. Goal is to hit 1200cal for the day and stop.

07/10/2018: 104.0 - Convince myself NOT to eat!
07/06/2018: 105.0
June Notes: I had one day where I weighed in at 104.4.

Helpful thoughts:
+ When I go to bed, will I be stressing about this food?
+ CONVINCING myself that I'm happier, more joyful and feel amazing when I stick to my plan.
+ I feel thinner when I have an amazing day. I am NOT going to throw in the towel because today I have stuck to my menu SO far and, I know I can make it ALL the WAY today and have an AMAZINGLY healthy day! I am less bloated, mentally more happy and my MOOD is a TON better without the NEGATIVE energy on processed foods!

7/17 - Tuesday - 195.4 - Feeling strong and fit. It was hot and humid yesterday - I would have laid on the couch in the air conditioning last year. This year I went for a 1 mile walk/hike AND went swimming AND cooked dinner on the grill (well DH did that I just hung around outside). Life is too short not to do those things. Friends are staying the night tonight as a stop over on their trip from FL to ME. Lots of clean up to do before they get there - but I wont go nuts. We have all lived together at one point or another so they already know what my house looks like regularly Nonetheless it will be a late night. Maybe I'll get a movie and eat ice cream while I wait for them, if it fits in my calories - this means probably another walk tonight so I can do that! I brought more meds to work today and remembered my fish oil - those habits had been suffering lately so looking to focus on improving that over the next 10 days. I kept my goal the same as last week but after thinking about it again I would like to be closer to 193 - I've been hanging around 195 for what feels like a while. I'm going to continue to consider that but not change it just yet.
7/18 - Wednesday - No weigh in - OOPS! Totally spaced it this morning. This is not a bad thing though. I was in the moment with friends visiting. For me, it's nice to know I'm not obbsessing over the number. I was also dog tired as they didnt get in until 5AM and I already had my alarm set to wake me at 1AM so sleep was minimal. So that also lead to not packing breakfast or lunch...poor planning on my part. But, I'll make the best of it! A reasonable choice at lunch and lots of water! We should be able to grill up some sausage for dinner and I've got some rice and veg ready to go! It never gets easier, but I'm getting better at figuring it out!

I am in, but what a challenge this has been recently. I am not using my tools to do the right thing. I have an injury that is preventing me from really exercising like I am used to. So even though I am in, right now I feel a little e beaten down. Hopefully I will rise above it! My goal for this round is to get below 140# and make it stick!

7/17 - 167.8 lbs - Need to get back on track!
7/18 - 167.2 lbs - Impressed at the slight decrease in the scale even though I have not been very healthy for the past week or so...but today is a new day and this is a new challenge! I hope to be down 2 lbs by the end of July with the ultimate goal being 155 lbs by the end of the year. Right now I am just happy that I haven't gone back into the 170s in the past month!
