JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 63
Replies

I’m back again for another round. I’m still just working on maintenance for this round. Lots of family in town and we have Christmas and New Years. My goal would be to end this round at 151 or 150. Round 64 is when I will be back on track and hopefully be in the 140 decade finally! Good luck everyone.
SW: 178
End R62: 152.3
Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 - 153.0 up a little from last round, but started doing all the cooking for our Christmas Eve dinner so completely not a surprise.
12/25 - 155.0 up some more. Drank a lot of beer and ate a lot of food yesterday. Had an amazing time with all the family though. I’m glad I get to go back to work tomorrow and get back on schedule. Love the holidays, but glad I am done with Christmas this year.
12/26 - 156.3 Up some more. Wow 4 pounds in 3 days. Hopefully it is a lot of water weight and sodium and just crap that I normally don’t eat that will get out soon. I think I gained 6 pounds over Thanksgiving so I guess 4 isn’t terrible. Sucks being over 155 again though. Back at work today and lots of water and clean food is what I have planned. Oh well, it happens once a year, so I will suck it up and take it for what it is.
12/27 - 153.7 going back down. Did well yesterday. Drank lots of water and stayed on track for the most part. Did have some friends stop by unexpectedly and had a couple of drinks with them. I think this would have been a little lower if not for that. Hopefully I will see that 151 or 152 tomorrow. I am just counting the days until these holidays are over, lol.
12/28 - 152.3 Half way through this round and going back in the right direction. I'm back where I was at the end of the last round, so can't complain. One more weekend of entertaining, food, drinks, and fun. Then I am back going full force. I so want to be in the 140's already. I have been so close this entire month. Next round for sure, hopefully, lol!
12/29 - 151.8 and we continue to get back to my 2 week pre-holiday festivities. Hopefully I can do good today and maintain through this weekend. Glad to know I didn’t do to much damage.
12/30 - 152.4 had a couple of drinks with my husband for the ufc fights last night. Ate under calories, but I could have made better choices. Also did a little LNS that I probably could have done with out. Those chips were calling my name though. Football and getting my house cleaned is on my schedule for today.
12/31- 151.8 super happy with this. Nice day at home with the kids and husband. Did not make my 30 pound goal this year, but was super close. I was 3 pounds off. Not going to complain, super happy with my progress so far. Ready to conquer that last 16 pounds I have remaining in 2019. We have 2 more days of this round. Hopefully I can finish on a decent note. Have plans with the kids and husband tonight. Movies, snack food, and probably a couple of drinks. I’m going to try and be careful, but I’m also going to have a good night with my family. Hope you all have a great NYE tonight!

My name is Jen. I’ve been sitting at the low 200s for a while now trying everything to get my weight to budge. A great MFP friend suggested this group and so far it’s helping! The weight is still moving at a snails pace but at least it’s moving!

Round 62 SW - 205.6 EW - 206.6
12/24 207.0. Now that I see my numbers up top I realize I only gained a pound during a very busy time when I was sick and work was very stressful. I’m up again today but I think that is mainly due to two very salty dinners in a row. Gotta drink lots of water today!!
12/25 - did not weigh
12/26 - did not weigh
12/27 - 208.8. I’m back and ready to bring this number down. I couldn’t bring myself to weigh in yesterday. This number isn’t horrible but I can’t wait until it comes down again. I feel heavy and lethargic which needs to change.
12/28 - 209.2. I was hoping this number would go down lol! I had some salty food yesterday so I think that might be part of it. This was a good wake up call for me. Need to get back to basics.
12/29 - 211. I’m really hoping this is all water retention. I worked out again yesterday and had a salty dinner so I’m hoping this will start to disappear soon. I have my day all planned out today so should see a drop tomorrow.
12/30 - 209.4. Much better today. Going to do the same things today plus get a treadmill workout in.
12/31 - 208.8. Happy with this! Happy New Year everyone!12 -

12/24 Monday - 174.8 - late night snacking got me last night. Enjoying the next two days without regret and may or may not log. Aiming to maintain again this round, especially ending the round on the 2nd we usually do a buffett for new years eve so being realistic. I have a crazy headache today so I'm hitting the water hard.
12/25 - DNW
12/26 - Wednesday - 176.6 - No surprise there as I enjoyed yesterday without holding back and without logging. Back at it today though! Lots of water at work - DH made beef stew for lunches this week. And I've got some yummy teriyaki salmon cakes to make for dinner tonight!
12/27 - Thursday - 176.6 - Weird day yesterday; both schedule wise and eating wise. Got into work, then had to leave at noon for our wood delivery. Spent the last 2 hours of daylight stacking. Ate dinner. Still hungry, ate ramen noodles?! Havent done that in a long time - used to live on that junk. Got up early and moved some more wood, probably got about a cord stacked with another cord we have to get done tonight because snow/rain is due in tonight and it will absolutely kill me to see this beautiful kiln dried wood sit in a pile in the rain so we'll be working in the dark tonight. Atleast I'll get my exercise in! Eating what we have available, sandwich for lunch and leftover stew for dinner. Need to get cracking on my water!!!
12/28 - Friday - 174.6 - back in the right direction. Stacking wood for hours helped too, but I was starving and ate all the calories back. Anyway, working from home today and need to grocery shop later so I'll try to find a balance and drink enough water. Got another headache today, they had all but disappeared for a while but seem to be more frequent lately and id like to curtail that, just gotta figure out exactly whats causing them to return again.
12/29 - Saturday - 176.6 - spiraling a bit here. Headache has not gone away despite lots of water and some Tylenol. Hate how much these have come back with a vengeance and its a bit cyclical, feel worse, eat worse, feel worse, struggle to get back to habits because I'm feeling poorly. Ah I went grocery shopping and got way too much junk cause it was easy. Realized that eating crap costs just as much as eating healthy so thats no excuse. We have plans for chinese food and friends coming over for new years eve so I'll unload a lot of these snacks on them too. A regular work schedule makes it so much easier for me to stay on track so I'll get back in the swing soon enough.
12/30 - Sunday - 177.6 - really didnt even want to post this number. Considered calling it a dnw day, or skipping posting all together. But gotta be honest thru the process, thats what its all about. Theres all kinds of reasons for it, salt, not enough water, a little constipated, the list goes on. But just being honest and present is a win for me despite a higher number.
12/31 - Monday - 177.6 - chinese food tonight so might be higher still tomorrow. Staying positive and celebrating all the victories of the year and letting that spur me on in 2019. Driven, is my word of the year!

Thank you. Changing my life is my 2019 motto. I have a pic of me in London in front of a piece of the Berlin wall that states “Change Your Life”. Ran across it recently. I’m really shaking it up … announced that I’m retiring Jan 31 at 58 after 30 years with the same company to basically focus on me.

Thank you for the Jan 1st blurb! YEP It is definitely time to pull out the stops for Onederland. I’ve been there once in the past 10 years … close 3x. This time it will stick. Changing my life! No excuses.
Congratulations on your pending retirement! I retired at 52 after 30 years in Jan/12. I'm 58 now and I haven't regretted a second of leaving it all behind.
I hope you enjoy every bit of yours! It's so nice to conduct your days any which way you like.
The last time I was in Onederland was sadly back in 1994 (!) and I did come so close in 2008 - 207 or something and I can't believe I gave up then. Oh well ... forward we go.
I love your photo in front of that piece of the wall. It's perfect!
I'm looking forward to seeing you succeed this year. This group is so fantastic with lots of support through comments, likes and hugs.
Happy New Year!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 150.6 (-0.4 from yesterday, -0.4 from round start) Ah, giving myself a little tiny drop to start off. I won't be weighing about food for the next couple days, and I have a dinner out with friends on the 29th and on the 1st, and NYE is generally spent "grazing" snacky things. So I know going into this that this round is almost certainly ending in a gain, and I'm okay with that. A pound or two up won't derail my overall progress and I'm alright with there being some "food traditions" that we stick to.
12/25 150.4 (-0.2 from yesterday, -0.6 from round start) I'm sure it'll be up tomorrow. I'm thoroughly enjoying my stocking goodies, and just lounging around enjoying my gifts - and enjoying watching my people enjoy their gifts.
12/26 149.8 (-0.6 from yesterday, -1.2 from round start) I have no idea how there was a loss, lol, but I'll take it. Hope everyone had a happy holiday!
12/27 149.8 (-0.0 from yesterday, -1.2 from round start) My best guess is that eating out is mainly what trips me up the most. These past several days have been including treats, no weighing of food or logging anything, and I've somehow managed to go down. The round before I had a swing up.. but we also did a lot of eating out as our holiday prep had us busy-busy. Eating at home, I can at least dish up my own food or put leftover aside and not feel subconscious pressure to finish it all. Plus we don't have a fryer, so there's that. LOL Two meals out expected for this round - one on the 29th, one on the 1st. We'll see how things go.
12/28 150.0 (+0.2 from yesterday, -1.0 from round start) The last of the holiday treats should be gone after today. I'm going to make a token effort to log stuff again today (it's harder when the kids are home). I need to start up the exercise again, but it's all gloomy and gross (though at least not windy like yesterday.. our neighbors actually had a tree blown down, roots and all). Maybe I'll just cart the laundry down the stairs in about 70 trips. LOL Cardio plus housework.
12/29 149.8 (-0.2 from yesterday, -1.2 from round start) Not bad, but will likely be offset by a dinner out tonight and no chance to get in real exercise today.
12/30 150.4 (+0.6 from yesterday, -0.6 from round start) Expected, but I have no regrets. The creamcicle cake splurge was worth it. LOL Still, I do know I need to rein in those splurges. All of our holiday stuff is almost past us, then it's back to it. Oddly enough, I'm kind of looking forward to being able to weigh things for logging again once the kidlets get back to school. Didn't think that would ever be a thing. Ha!
12/31 150.0 (-0.4 from yesterday, -1.0 from round start)

Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 - 145 - Saturday's party just showed up on the scale. My Grandson is coming over to make Christmas cookies with me tonight. I'm enjoying every minute of this. I'll have plenty of time in January to make up for these indulgences.
12/25 - 144.5
12/26 - 147 - At least I'm still enjoying myself!
12/27 - 146.5 - Some of the family left yesterday evening and I'm back in the office for a couple days. I'm going to try to eat at weight loss calories for the next few days until the New Year's and football game festivities begin with the remaining family this weekend. NSV - Yesterday, my very fit and thin SIL and I walked to a local Lululemon store. She loves the workout gear and we've been walking over there the day after Christmas for several years now. At 186 or so pounds, I never found anything there that I thought would fit or look decent on me, especially for the price. Well, I ended up finding and buying a pair of size 8 travel pants that were on sale. My SIL was so excited for me.
12/28 - 145.5 - Well I must have picked up some kind of virus while I was out last week. It seems to be centered around my chest and throat. I had to take off work today. It has not spoiled my appetite though, of course.
12/29 - 144.5 - I've been drinking a lot of water to help with my congestion. That's the only reason I think my weight is down, as I've been indulging in some comfort foods.
12/30 - 146.5
12/31 - 145.5 - I didn't feel well enough to post yesterday, although I weighed myself. I'm feeling better today, but I have indulged in some more comfort foods like chili and cornbread and a brownie. I hope everyone enjoys their New year festivities tonight!

About me: 62, 5'7", hit maintenance in March 2018 and, typical yoyo, currently bouncing back up over original goal weight of 130. Want to get back to 127-128.
Crept back to JGM10D quietly in Round 60, disappeared for a couple of weeks, but I'M BAAAAACK
12/24 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/25 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/26 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/27 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/28 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/29 too much baking. no weigh, no log.
12/30 133.6 and that was a gift.
12/31 - 134.8 - Yesterday ate almost double my maintenance calories. 135ish is what I weighed a year ago, but then I was going down! So this is the new ceiling and I am crawling back mid-round ... "rising again every time I fall."

12/31 -- 154.5 -- Very pleased with this after not weighing since Friday Dec 21, and eating exclusively away from home and mostly at restaurants for 10 days! Sorry for not posting. I've been lurking in the background reading everyone's updates, but decided not to log food or try to post while on vacation.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 - 241.8...didn't get enough water and had a high sodium supper.
12/25 - 242.8...actually stayed within calories yesterday and got lots of water...weighed earlier than normal though. Oh well. Merry Christmas!!🎄🎄
12/26 - 242.8...considering all I ate yesterday I'm very happy with that...dinner was super yummy and I stuffed myself on it! I got a Fitbit for Christmas and I'm pretty excited. I had a cheap knock off before that worked okay but didn't have heartrate. So far the Fitbit seems to give me few more steps than my other one though.
12/27 - 244.8..I ate a lot of leftovers yesterday and chocolate and popcorn. And I don't think I drank any water 😐 I'm going out of town tomorrow until Sunday evening and I won't be tracking. We have a girls drinks night planned which will involve snacks, and a couple of family dinners to go to. Back on track starting Monday.
12/28 - 244.8
12/29 - no weigh in. Girls night was a lot of laughs, my cheeks were sore by the time I went to bed!
12/30 - no weigh in. Spent most of the day yesterday relaxing and eating, we had some snow so not much else to do. Suppose to stop snowing this morning so hopefully we'll get back home later today. Not looking forward to weighing after this weekend but back on plan starting tomorrow.
12/31 - no weigh in again today. Snow kept us out of town for an extra night. Back home again now though...going to drink lots of water and have a low calorie day..hopefully the scale isn't too hard on me tomorrow (I did stuff myself with junk food for 3 days though 😞)
Happy New Year Everyone!!! 😁
01/01 - 244.0...under calories and 100 oz of water yesterday.

22/12: 166.3: Goals Under goal, but too much festive food choices yesterday. Oops! Rein it in!
23/12: 165.9: Goals Phew!!! Happy enough with that. Sooooo much better than previous years. 2 more days to Christmas Day Feast. Moderation is my goal
Round 63 -|- End Goal: 165
24/12: 165.9: Goals ✅
25/12: 166.1: Goals ✅ It is what it is. 🎄 Christmas!!!🎄
26/12: 168.9: Goals ✅ Goal was to do better than previous years. The jury is still out!
27/12: 169.1: Goals ✅ not unexpected. Definitely feeling the Christmas bloat. Food choices have been questionable, to say the least. Back to good nutrition!
28/12: 168.7: Goals ✅ Now to work on permanently discarding these blighters.
29/12: 169.2: Goals ✅ Let's hope that's the end of it! Just under 4 lbs is much better than previous years.
30/12: 168.6: Goals ✅ I've been under calories by a fair bit each day, but only because I was skimping on 'real' food, which didn't help, because the nourishment wasn't there. I also need to get my butt into gear with the exercise, since I have been a bit desultory with my walking, probably because of all the crap food (mostly chocolate related). My choices created a vicious circle, but I'm out of it now. I was much more sensible yesterday, and have been drinking extra water to flush out the system.
31/12: 167.4: Goals ✅ These things take time. Hanging in there. 2 more days in this round. I looked back on my weight since last Christmas. I have been more or less static for most of the year, but up 10 lbs on the previous year. Time to buckle down and get serious. I've been far too complacent for far to long.
01/01: 169.8: Goals 👿 Oh! The folly of opening a bottle of Prosecco at 11.35pm. Now, half a bottle and a packet of crisps and some Pringles didn't put on 2.4lbs of fat, but I feel the water retention, and will have little appetite today. I am working my butt off for the next however many days it takes to combat the festive bulge.
🎈🎉🎈May you have a joyous, productive, and prosperous 2019 🎈🎉🎈
THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Round 62 11st 11.6lb (-.5lb)
Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 - 11st 11.8lb - another .2lb increase that I did not expect as I was so careful yesterday. However, at 1246 calories I was slightly over the 1200 calories but I still had 113 exercise calories left.
12/25 - unable to weigh
12/26 - unable to weigh
12/27 - unable to weigh
12/28 - 11st 12.6lb. Happy to have only put on 1lb over Christmas, now to take it off again.
12/29 - unable to weigh
12/30 - unable to weigh
12/31- 11st 13.6lb three days at my daughter's house and I've put on another pound! I should have been going back on New Year's day. I'm so glad I am not going - she's not well and if I've caught her illness, I'll not be pleased. However, now home I have my scales to weigh my food and me and not be tempted by all the chocolates and biscuits she has in her house. Now can I lose the two pound to get back to the weight at the beginning of this round!
01/01- 11st 12.8lb. Happy with my loss today - just one pound and a bit more and I will be back to my pre-Christmas weight. A day at a time certainly works.

Round 63 - New to the group
Male, 6'2" 42 years old
Diagnosed with Type II - November 8, 2016 A1C = 8.7%, September 21, 2018 A1C = 6.1%
Starting Weight - 209.5lbs
Highest Weight - 227.8lbs, May 2016
Goal Weight - 199lbs
Ultimate Goal Weight - 194lbs
Goals -
* Under 1900 cals each day
* No blood glucose tests above 180
* Run 12/30, 12/31, 1/1, and 1/2 above 2.5 miles
12/30 - 209.5lbs. Not a great day. I have been battling a cold for a week and definitely using "feed a cold" as my mantra. Have not felt like working out. Tracked breakfast, but stopped after that. Blood glucose was terrible all day (multiple >200 readings). Need to get that under control immediately as I have a A1C test on January 10th. Will get it together tomorrow. Can't use colds and holidays as an excuse.
12/31 - 207.8lbs. Great all the way through dinner with eating right, tracking all food going into my mouth, and blood glucose <110 from noon-8PM. Kids made brownie sundaes and my sweet teeth got me. Not terrible though. Finished Peter Sagal’s book The Incomplete Guide to Running. Good motivator and will be on the treadmill today. Cold seems to be gone.
1/1 - 206.8lbs

12/27=off day

Most of the temptations are gone!! 2 water classes& bike today,feel good about that.All of you make me laugh & know we are so similar. This adventure will have a new start for me after the New Year,until then I will be cautious but gather all the joyful things that are all around us now
12/30=198.4 Good day yesterday,calories& exercise. Down 0.6
12/31=198.0Surprised.Having a good day,calories&exercise.Maybe a new trend??Happy New Year.....G

I confess, I've gone crazier with baked goods this Christmas than I have since I started this journey 4 years ago. And that's ok, and I'll let myself eat today and tomorrow. But then I'm getting back on track with another elimination diet round. Although I didn't think the elimination diet I followed last fall made much difference, my pain has increased since I started this food free-for-all for the holidays, and that tells me that food is a factor. I'm considering the past month a reset. Not to re-lose the extra 5 pounds and get healthy. But merry Christmas Eve, those who celebrate, and happy everything to everyone else!
12/25 – 135 - 1717
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate the holiday, and may the spirit of this season of holidays touch us all.
12/26 – 135 - 1791
Happy Boxing Day! Also "get closer to on track" day for me. It won't be perfect as we're going out to lunch and I do plan to have one more piece of the mince pie I baked and maybe a piece or two of brown-sugar fudge, but my big fat sugar fest (very unusual for me, even at holidays - don't know what got into me this year!) is over. Also heading for the Y this morning for a walk and I have a session tomorrow with a trainer to work out a work out that won't hurt my inflamed joints. I hope everyone had a lovely day yesterday, whether celebrating Christmas or just life.
12/27 – 136 - 1824
Yikes! Some is water since we went to Bob Evans for lunch yesterday, but still, YIKES! I'm awake now, cutting the desserts, and planning to re-start the anti-inflammatory routine this weekend. My new goal for 2019 is 125 pounds - so a pound a month will do it. I've set up 3 coaching appointments at the Y to create some outside accountability and am ordering some cold-weather hiking clothes so I can comfortably get my butt outside, cold or not. (8 years living on the southern NC coast has made me a cold weather weenie!) Onward!
12/28 – 136 - 1892
I had an orientation session at the Y yesterday so I have no more excuse not to get back to weight training, and my fist coaching session is next week. I felt really good yesterday afternoon and evening after even the short session + short time on stationary bike, so I'm looking forward to getting back at it! And I'm going to make a supreme effort to get my butt out of bed early to swim laps when the pool is vewy, vewy quiet, if my shoulder pain allows. Now to cut back on calories, but that shouldn't be hard since all the goodies are gone now but for one small piece of mince pie with my name on it.
Back to fish and veggies and fruit and whole grains.... I find it important to start my re-starts before Jan. 1 so I'm already rolling. Anyone else feel that way? (Recognizing that most of you didn't go quite so crazy this round and last!)
12/29 – 136.2 - 1919
My calories were lower yesterday, but based on my excessive 10-day average cals, the weight gain makes sense and I'm ok with this. All the goodies are gone now, and I've been sticking to my gym plan - yesterday I walked the track and did 30 min on the bike. Plan to do the same today + weights. And stick to my food plan!
12/30 – 136.8 - 2067
Eeeek! But those averages tell the tale, and I did have some garlic cheese bread and some cookies yesterday. On the plus side, I went to the Y to walk and do weights. And both the goodies and the exercise could add water weight, although I can't use that excuse much longer. The big lesson (and probably the worst thing about my backsliding) is that I've been craving foods I haven't cared about for almost 4 years, so I need to clean them out of my body and mind. Lesson learned!
12/31 – 137 - 2105
Still going the wrong way, but it's okay, and I'll be back on track next round. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it! Have a safe and lovely New Year's Eve!
01/01 –139 - 2000???
I hope this is the end of the upward trajectory. I'm definitely getting back on track today, especially re. sugar. My holiday blowout was fun, but on the old idea that whatever you do on the first of the year you'll be doing all year, today my goal is for minimal sugar. By the end of the week I plan to be fully on the anti-inflammation protocol again, and I intend to stick with it for at least 12 weeks, so through March. I've enjoyed baking & eating the baked goods the past month, but I'm looking forward to getting back to lots of veggies, fish, chicken, and fruit. I'd also forgotten how satisfying weight training can be - I'm a little sore today, but feel good to be back at it. So here's to a healthy, active, happy 2019, all!

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.
12/23 132.5
“””””””””””
12/24 131.5 Back in ketosis. Going to our daughter’s for crafting with some friends late this morning, need to make or buy something snacky but okay for everyone’s WOE. Our family tradition is pizza on Christmas Eve but I think the pizza places will be closed by the time DSIL gets home from work so we’ll make our own. Right now I need to make an apple pie for a neighbor! See you all tomorrow!
12/25 133.0 DD made chicken pizza crust and our dinner was really great! Then DD, DSIL, DH, and I played canasta. I haven’t played that in well over 50 years. It was fun but I really don’t like playing cards. Merry Christmas everyone!
12/26 132.0 Just the two of us yesterday. Rotisseried a chicken and found a recipe hack for Boston Market butternut squash. Chicken bones simmering overnight in the slow cooker.
12/27 131.5
12/28 130.5 I don’t know if something I ate didn’t agree with me but I’m tired of the bathroom and this isn’t a good way to lose weight. I’m making lasagna for Second Christmas dinner at our daughter and SIL’s tonight.
12/29 131.5 Didn’t post yesterday’s post yesterday. Movie was MEH. Too many sight gags and slap stick-ish. The lasagnas were great. I ate one end slice of French bread and one small bite of sticky bun. I can’t track my no noodle lasagna because I weighed all of the ingredients and Senza lists small, medium and large. Hmm. Ketones 0.2
12/30 131.0 Back in nutritional ketosis.
12/31 131.5 Gal pals are coming to craft and bringing my favorite HEALTHY fast food chicken! Everyone be safe tonight!
01/01 131.5 We are currently under a hard freeze warning until tomorrow morning! That’s pretty unusual for Las Vegas. There were even snowflakes on The Strip yesterday afternoon!11 -

My goals this round- get to 169. Drink lots of water and make exercise a priority.
12/24- 178- A salty swoosh up. We leave for the in-laws today and will return to the scale in a few days .
12/25 - Merry Christmas to all of you!!!
12/26- No Scale
12/27-178 Still on a swoosh up. It will go down.
12/28-177 Slow....that eating was fun, but it sure takes me a few days to get back into the swing of things!
12/29-174 Now that’s a swoosh! I’ve been logging my eating and getting exercise and drinking plenty of water.
12/30- 175. Hmmm. I did not go for my evening walk and ate a couple of heavy snacks yesterday.
12/31-174 Well, things could be worse between X-mas and New Years....I usually don’t care and eat like a pig. Good luck everyone!!!!! We’ve got this!!!!!
1/1-173 I was careful yesterday and had fun healthy food out last night, also got a good hilly walk in.

💚Karen. I am so glad you are all here!!!!! Happy New Year!!!!10 -

Day/Weight/Comment
12/24 - 175.4 - 74g carbs, 61g net carbs. Hungrier yesterday, probably because I felt cold. Carbs were: Peanut butter, cauliflower, breading on fish.
12/25 - 174.8 - 82g carbs, 79g net carbs.45g net carbs.
Carbs were: coating on fried chicken, salad, 1.5 TB onion dip, 1oz each pretzels and potato chips.
12/26 - 175.2 -156g carbs, 148g net carbs. Carbs were: A LOT & DELICIOUS! 1 large croissant, 1 TB red raspberry preserves, 1/4 grapefruit, salad, asparagus, sundried tomatoes, 2ozs pretzels, 3 salted caramel chocolate chip cookies.
12/27 - 175.2 - 549g carbs, 45g net carbs. Carbs were: breading on chicken tenders, cabbage, grapefruit, 85% dark chocolate, 1/2 dark choc ghiradelli square.
12/28 - 174 - 42g carbs, 36g net carbs. Carbs were: breading on chicken tenders, sunflower seeds. Out visiting family all day. Not enough water, too much coffee, but not dehydrated.
12/29 - 174.2 - 61g carbs, 44g net carbs. Carbs were: Coating on fried chicken, steamed cauliflower, boiled cabbage. 3TB peanut butter to increase calories, protein and fat, carbs come with it, oh well. Tiny bit of fluid retention. Another one meal day yesterday. Always unintentional, but it comes to that when I'm out all day. Went over calories trying to get my protein up. Both were low on Thursday.
12/30 - 175 - No need for gingerbread now. My spicy, sweet tooth was satisfied by 15, yes FIFTEEN, ginger snaps early in the day and 1/4 loaf of french bread with olive oil and butter ? while I food prepped for my nieces party.
12/31 - 175.8 - *Last night's comment) I don't even know why I tried to log food today. I guess to get an "estimate" of the carb grams. Laughable. There were a LOT of carbs on this charcuterie board and I enjoyed ALL of them + some wine. Carbs and calories were: inestimable 😐 and delicious.😆 Gonna be a rough Monday.
* This morning's comment) A gain of .8 lb not bad considering that I grazed for 4 hrs until my stomach felt full. Maybe 500 calories more than I posted in my food diary. Some things in it, I didn't eat, some things I did eat are not in the diary. I'll call it 2,000 to 2,500 calories. Estimating a few pieces of dark chocolate that I had. Of course more "weight" could show up tomorrow.
1/01 - 178 - My new years gift from midnight eating. 😂 It's all good.
