12/24--215.1 Whoosh! Hopefully it will hold. I'm a federal government who is furloughed, so the unexpected time off right now is pretty sweet. I just need to make sure that I don't derail my eating while I'm off work, I find that I snack a lot when I'm bored. So to give myself something to do I made a list of things that I need to do around the house that I have been putting off and I'm going to work on a couple of the tasks every day while I am off. Went to the gym today for weightlifting, this is not my usual weightlifting day but the gym is closed tomorrow. The sun is out today, which is shocking in the PNW for this time of the year, so assuming the weather holds up I will be taking the dog out for a walk this evening.
12/25--215.1 Weight still holding. Sinus pressure came back yesterday, I think it's from the 3 pieces of milk chocolate I had on Sunday. Going out for Christmas dinner.
12/26--215.6 I usually have a weight jump up to 2 days afterwards, so I won't be surprised if there is another gain tomorrow. Today is closet organizing day, so I'm going to organize all of the closets today. Some closets will definitely be easier than others.
Yoga later tonight.
12/27--214.9 Very surprised to see this number, I was expecting a bump up. Already been to this gym this morning to do some weightlifting. Closets were done yesterday, so the main thing today is cleaning/organizing the laundry/storage room and taking down the Christmas tree. I may also sneak in an afternoon nap.
12/28--214.2 Weighed twice to make sure. I have to stay home to wait for a delivery today, so I will be doing a lot of little things around the house. No working out today, today is a rest day and it's going to be raining all day so no long walk with the dog either.
12/29--214.5 This morning I realized it's been 4 weeks since I've started this elimination diet due to my food allergies and I can't believe how much better my stomach/digestion is feeling since I've started. I can't wait until I can start reintroducing some more foods. The best thing about the elimination is that I have become a lot more aware to how foods affect my digestion. Supposed to be windy and rainy today, so no long walk with the dog today and today is another no gym day so another day to get things done around the house.
12/30--213.6 Weightlifting at gym this morning and then I went for a 4 mile hike with dog...legs are sore so I will definitely be resting for rest of the day. My husband baked some no egg/almond flour chocolate chip cookies yesterday and they were good, even he has had to keep himself from eating them. So far there doesn't seem to be an adverse reaction to the reintroduction of almonds to my diet, but it can take up to 72 hours for any effects, so I will give it a couple of more days to see how it goes.

GW maintain or loose some holiday weight
UGW 125
12/24 – no weigh in. Holidays are not fun and food is so tempting
12/25🎄🎅🤶 – 146 yikes!! The Holidays are kicking my butt!!
12/26 – no weigh in. Trying to stay the path but one more dinner tonight might not be helpful.
12/27 – 147.6 😥😥😥 I didn't log for the whole holiday (since the 22nd to be exact) and pretty much ate whatever I wanted. Exercise has consisted of walking alone. But I am also not worried, I am finally back and looking to at least loose whatever holiday weight I have gained and getting back into it for the new year. It shouldn't be too difficult to drop whatever weight I put on over the holidays but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if I still ended with a 1 or 2 pound gain. I enjoyed myself and as long as this spiral didn't continue I will be happy. On a plus note though, I still look amazing!!! Was so shocked to see myself in certain clothing..I felt good and my hubby noticed also..so once again I am happy. Today I started logging again.
12/28 –145 Thank goodness! The downward trend has commenced!!! Lol. After eating whatever I wanted for a week, I am finding getting back into routine slightly harder food wise. I am staying away from sweets but the left over turkey, yams, mashed potatoes and stuffing keep calling my name. To make matters slightly worse, I haven't worked out in a week and I know I need to rebegin before I get used to not...which I don't want at all.,.on the other hand I did walk 19000+ steps yesterday so thankfully I am not completely inactive. Looking to workout this weekend, hopefully if we don't have too many guests so I can at least attempt too and getting myself going before new years eve
12/29 –144.4 Surprised by this, yesterday's activity was low...felt more tired then usual and I think I needed a day off. Tonight has been rough though, started out well enough but between a big family breakfast, the left over treats calling my name and UFC night where my neighbour brought over homemade pizza... I don't know how the weigh in tomorrow will look. Although I thought I could get a workout in today, it didn't happen because of guests that have been over nearly all day..tomorrow no one should be coming by so *fingers crossed* I can get something in. Although yesterday I saw an all time low of 3000 steps, today I am above 13000 so at least not completely inactive. I feel myself slacking a bit but I am planning to change that. I need to be more mindful and begin shooting for 1200 cals. Again and no more unless exercise is high that day
12/30 – no weigh in. Slept in and then my hubby brought me some coffee, which I drank before weighing. Oops. So far I have done just fine today, been eating within my calories and got some laundry done..but activity was low, still didn't exercise. Yikes!! It has been a week and two days since I last worked out with my usual routine, even if I have been walking like a mad women, i really need my routine to feel complete lol. Thinking about some left over turkey for dinner and hoping I don't LNS tonight..which has been an issue last couple of days. *fingers crossed* my weigh isn't too awful in the morning and I can end the year on a pleasing note, even if this Round seems to be a complete wash for me

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.

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.

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 all day, but I could have made some 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. 3 more days of this round and I’m still up a little.

12/29 221.2 very pleased with the continuous loss even if .1. I have a Christmas Party for work Jan 19 bought a dress it fits but would look better with about 10 lbs off taking 1 day at a time.

I’m in for this round and plan to really get with the plan! I’ll set my goal in the morning when I weigh. See y’all!
Round SW -191.8
End round GW -187.0
This is a big goal to achieve in the next 10 days, but I am ready to get serious again.
12/24 -191.8
12/25 - 190.6 (down 1.2 pounds so far)
12/26 - 191.0 up just a bit but I am okay with that. Lots of cooking and sampling along the way for Christmas but still did pretty good. Most of the treats are out of the house and I have to go back to work today so I am expecting good results for tomorrow’s weigh in.
12/27 - 190.6 on my way again. Gotta stay strong.
12/28 - 189.6 It is so good to be back in the 180s again. Very physical day at work so that kept me on point but a little trouble when I got home with random snacking. Gotta work on that!
12/29 - 188.8 (-3 so far) Not sure how tomorrows weigh in will go as I had pizza today and didn’t drink water. 4 more days to lose 1.8 to meet goal. I CAN do this!
12/30 - 188.6

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 yesterday and 1/4 loaf of french bread with olive oil and butter 😳 while I food prepped for my nieces party. Party was great! Gonna be a rough Monday.

Original Start Weight: 167.5 (April 2017)
Round Start Weight: 151.0 (12/23/18)
Round Goal Weight: enh, it's Christmas, I'll be good-ish, but so long as my gain is small I'll be happy
Ultimate Goal Weight:135 (ish. Maybe higher if I get some muscle.)
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!

Ended R62 at 171
12/24: 170.4 Not that bad, I suppose. Gonna go get some running in for the first time in five days. Gotta earn my movie popcorn for tonight!
12/25: Decided to enjoy Christmas not worrying about a number. I did get an apple watch, so let's hope those activity rings motivate me!
12/26: 169.0 SO EXCITED. Praying that I can stay below 170! I know this has been the endless area for a lot of us. Just gotta work my butt off to keep going!
12/27: So I forgot to weigh myself this morning
Had an early (and exciting) morning! Hoping for a good number tomorrow though.
12/28: 168.2 Hopefully gonna get to the gym today!

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.
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.

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.

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!
