JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 57

mvanderhoof415

New to this challenge so just a little about myself. I'm 5'4" and my heaviest weight was 196 lbs (Aug 2017). Even at that weight I didn't really feel the need to do something. But very recently I realized that I have always loved nature and I would love to go hiking at various state parks. I want to be able to complete them. There are various other reasons too, such as health. But my driving goal right now is being able to enjoy the world's natural beauties and see them in person. I've been on the weight loss roller coaster before and failed at eating 1,200 calories a day. I currently aim to eat 1,400-1,500 calories a day. I know it won't be as fast but I want to maintain my weight loss this time ( I feel my previous failures were from being too hungry and binge eating), even if it means only losing a small amount of weight each week.

Age: 25
Height: 5'4"
Challenge SW (10/24): 182.8
UGW: 140 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
10/25: 182.7 (-0.1) I ate a little bit over my caloric goal and had just over 1,500 calories for the day. I ate all healthy foods, but to be honest I probably put a little too much salt on my steak. I also had good news yesterday, I thought I had injured my back but the physical therapist touched my back and in less than a second said I had a huge knot and my muscles were just seizing up from it. He worked the knot out and the sharp pains were gone! He said I could go back to exercising and that it would actually be good for my back muscles to be engaged.

10/24- 201.8 so yesterday was a good day, I ate well but could of had a bit more water. I didn't get to work out this am bc I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. Maybe I will try for a quick 30min workout but we are trick or treating at my job tonight so we'll see how late I end up being out. So far ive eaten well today

Day/Weight/Comment
10/25- 198.8 5am post workout. didn't get the workout in yesterday evening, ate well yesterday however! Making a conscious attempt to drink more water today

Day/Weight/Comment
10/25 175.2 - Woah what? 😲That's got to be water! Crazy. I feel like I was real consistent with my water yesterday, but I'm going to be extra mindful of it today.
Also, I'm needing to work on stress management. This past few days at work I've been feeling a little overwhelmed. I've got to figure it out because this time of year through around March/April it's often crazy busy at the hospital.
Last challenge I set a goal of 6 days with exercise and I'm going to continue that goal.

🕷10/25🕸 149.8- yesterday I worked out but ate a bit too much, late night snacking got to me..I still managed under my calories but it does explain the "maintenance" I drank 1 liter of water, so not great on the water front. I have been extra hungry for the past two weeks but I finally feel normal again now that I am mid week into my TOM. I also feel good today, totally more energized then I have been the past two weeks (like I was before my cold started... gosh colds last a long time) here is to a good day! 🥂 i am also happy to report i took my measurments this morning and I am half an inch down around my waist, 1 inch down around my hips and 1 and a half inches down around my thighs...what a good start to my day

Sunrise this morning was spectacular! I'm looking forward to a nice walk on the river greenway. Then I'm off to the dr's office - I was pruning a rose yesterday and it fought back. I'm sure there's a thorn tip embedded in my leg (nice finish to a long scratch) and my hubby couldn't get it and I can't reach it very well. That'll be fun! Have a lovely day, all!

I did the last round for the very first time and being accountable really helped me. My SW last round was 158.3 and today for round #57 - CW is 156. GW is 153 (still on my -5lb increments to make it more manageable)
Let's see how this goes for round two for me.

10/25 - 178.4 - An early weigh in, but I'm certain this is true. An impromptu day out with a friend threw me off of my normal pattern. Did not drink enough water. Did not drink my electrolytes. Ate POPCORN. I bought some popcorn kernels to pop corn for my husband. WHY did I eat 2 cups of popcorn? I don't even eat corn or grains. I can't blame it on hunger. I wasn't hungry. So I earned this temporary gain.

@DebCountsAll, Welcome to a new decade! Congrats!

"I am 10 BMI points down from my heaviest and 2 away from getting out of the obese range. !!"
@allmannerofthings, So happy for you! Leaving obesity is one of the best feelings ever.

@cpanus, I'm cheering you on! You're getting closer to a new decade!

@sdelpapa, I like my last meal to be at 5:30pm. That gives me 6 hrs before bedtime. Depending on my lack of hunger or being away from home during the day, sometimes I eat as late as 7:30pm, still allowing 4 hrs of digestion before sleep.

10/25 192.6 No exercise yesterday. I drove for more than 5 hours, that was enough "exercise" for me. Good news I got a new asthma script. I didn't pick it up because I was too tired. Let's hope this new insurance means I can afford more than just the rescue inhaler. I'm crabby but still staying in calorie goal and plan on walking tonight.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/25 149 Back here again, but with new motivation. I found an old tablet yesterday and was looking through old photos of myself, and got inspired to lower my goal weight to 134.5. Weight loss is first and mostly about psychology, and it really helped to see myself slimmer, smiling, looking like I felt great. Yesterday I had a really good day, lowered my calories back to 1200 and started wearing my fitbit again. Refocusing on my macros, since higher protein works best for me (carbs 25%, fat 45%, protein 30%) and seeking to hit that protein goal of 90g daily. These past 5 rounds I have indulged plenty, tasted all the foods I was desiring, and have come back to the realization that I feel better when I eat more simply. Skipping breakfast unless I am hungry, lots of salads, and grilled lean protein. Occasional treats, not daily. Looking forward to this round more than I have in a while! Have a great day everyone!
