Back for another Round. This will be Round 6 for me. Lots of up and down with not much progress the last few rounds. Time to get consistent and off this merry go round.

Round 54 EW 271 (-5 lbs)

10/4 - 271 lbs Here we are again. I've seen this number too many times lately. Time to let it go!

10/5 – 269 lbs (-2 lbs) Well there ya go. Hit my goal from challenge we just finished. Missed it by one day! Well I'll reset my goal for this round to 267. I'm looking to average 2 lbs a week. It's a reasonable goal and I know there will be challenge rounds that I miss my target. I will look to my 30 day trend to see my overall progress. I get inspiration from all of you here who are going through the same ups and downs but are sticking with it. Have a great weekend everyone!

10/6 – 269lbs (No Change) Not unexpected after the quick drop yesterday. Still on track food wise. Been having lots of salads for dinner and got off peanuts and on to grapes for snack. Will see if that works out better. Much less salt but more sugar. Oh well its a process.. Change is good anyhow.

10/7 – 270lbs (+1lb) Fluid gain hopefully.

10/8 – 272lbs (+2lbs) Well this is discouraging. It's the pitfall of weighing in every day. Fasting day in store today. Lots of water.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

10/07 NWI Travel day, miserable weather for car travel! Pouring so hard we slowed to 40MPH a couple of times and spent about 20 minutes at a convenience store so DH could relax.

I am a 50 year old 5'5" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.

I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. On the other hand when I look at the big picture and the averages it has been a consistent loss except for two rounds. Round 53 was my 50 birthday celebrations that upped my weight for a few days.

I need to step up my game if I want to meet any of my goals.

10/05 - Friday - 180.8 - Carb monster last night! But I'm learning how to satisfy my cravings without sabotaging my health. So I had just one serving and all was good! Friends coming down this weekend - next weekend is my birthday soooo if I could just see 170 something this round I'd be ecstatic! *I went shopping for a pair of jeans at dressbarn yesterday because I needed something that fit, my size 14's were getting really big. I figured I'd be in a 12, or even a 14 still that just wasnt stretched out. I grabbed a few sizes and even a size 10 just because I liked the wash. Well much to my surprise, everything was too big so I tried the 10's and voila!!! Also, I tried on a jumpsuit, that looked amazing! I didnt buy it because it was very summery but you better believe its a NSV!
10/06 - Saturday - 179.2 - Company arrived late friday night - DH cooked steak and peapods for dinner last night but we didnt eat until late. Took friends out to diner breakfast this morning - then headed to ski swap. Back home for a quick nap for the baby then out to farm and grocery store. Cooked a pot pie and potatoes, and indulged in some brownies. Ate some cheese and crackers while dinner cooked. Headed to bed around 10, exhausted.
10/07 - Sunday - 180.0 - Woke up early to cook breakfast for friends before they headed out. DH and I then went to ski swap, took a lift ride, and headed home for another nap for me this time haha. Went to the giant pumpkin weigh in and entered the wood raffle. Had an apple soda but skipped the cider donuts! Made tortellini and sausage alfredo with leftovers from breakfast and managed to stay away from the brownies!
10/08 - Monday - 183.4 - Oh well! So many NSV this weekend I don't mind the blip on the scale. Totally normal Monday upswing. I can't find my water bottle at work - but it's probably a sign to get a new one. I was just saying Friday I need something glass, as I don't like drinking water out of stainless but want to get away from plastic - but I also want a straw! Any awesome water bottle suggestions appreciated! Have my healthy choice power bowl for lunch and I'm actually looking forward to it.

Round 55 Goal: 140.0 or Under

Exercise Plan = Had to pause the Betty Rocker 90 Day Challenge on Day 68 due to sprained ankle, still in recovery mode and just practicing yoga during this round to hopefully get back to my workout program by Round 56.
Nutrition Plan = Continue to limit gluten, dairy, sugar, diet soda, alcohol & eat non-processed foods, protein/fruit/veg at every meal, complex carbs at breakfast and post workout meal, drink plenty of water.

10/5 = 142.0 (no change from yesterday) Yesterday, I was on my feet too much and felt it in my ankle by the end of the night, will try to stay off it more today and ice. I'm going to alternate yoga every other day for this round, trying to strengthen my ankle. This round I'll also focus more on my nutrition, which has been slacking. There has been more and more gluten making its way back into my food choices and I just feel better when I limit these types of foods. I'll tighten back up on my alcohol consumption as well, limiting to 1-2 times/week. "Tough times don't last; tough people do."

10/6 = 142.0 (no change from yesterday) Took yesterday as another rest day, ankle improving with the pain now down to dull ache and able to bear full weight. Yesterday was the perfect running weather, so hard to be stuck inside not able to get some miles in. I really want to be able to run (as well as get back to my workouts) while it is still fall before it gets so cold. I'll still run outside in winter, but just love fall running the most. Today, I'm going to do some yoga and then need to do some menu planning and meal prep. If I am going to lose any real weight this round, it will be because of the food choices I make. Need to make sure I'm set-up for success. Have a great weekend everyone!

10/7 = No Weigh In. I had a nice Sunday morning sleep-in and then before I could weigh-in was called to cooked breakfast for my daughter. I had promised her French toast as we had some really nice bread left over from earlier in the week. This was only for her, I am not tempted by this at all as consuming gluten makes me feel horrible. I picked my 90 day challenge workouts back up and completed day 69 of 90. I had to modify and take out the jumping parts and wore the ankle brace for extra support. I dropped each move down from 1 minute each to 30 seconds, still 3 rounds. I got through this fine, no noticeably ankle pain!

10/8 = 142.0 (no change) Probably not making my goal this round of being under 140. But it will come in time, just trying to get back into the swing of things with my workouts. Hopefully, now that I am able to get a good sweaty workout in again, I will be able to recommit to the healthy eating habits I had been practicing. I'm discouraged to know that this ankle set-back led to some self-sabotage eating, I had hoped I was beyond that. But knowledge is power, so I will stay strong and get back on track.
