ROUND 25 FOR ME.

“I DON’T STOP WHEN I’M TIRED - I STOP WHEN I’M DONE”





Goals:

Weight:
Short Term Goal: Lose 2 pounds this round.
First Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 180 by Valentine’s Day 💗💗💗 I hope to achieve this by losing about 1.5 pounds per week (or 2 lbs per round).
My Second Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 160 by my Birthday on May 10th by sticking to my plan to lose 1.5 pounds per week (or 2 lbs per round).
My third Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 150 by the 4th of July using the same plan as above.
Exercise:
During each Weight goal I plan on doing cardio in the form of dancing at aerobic levels whenever possible. I would also like to walk as much as possible although walking outside is impossible for me this time of year.

Day/Weight/Comment

02/02 ….. 186.9 ….. Same as yesterday on the scale. I ate back my 222 calories from exercise. Over on the carbs, but not too bad. I kept my bun on my hamburger because I was so hungry. I should have planned differently. I burned 2437 calories overall. 11,640 total steps & 5.12 miles overall. 13/13 fitbit step hours. I slept 6 hours 26 minutes which is great for me. No dancing (frown) but I did take a brisk walk indoors at the school for 34 minutes. I stopped on my way past when I saw the school was open for some type of meeting (cars in parking lot). Update: My sister’s kidneys are showing some improvement today. They hope she’ll be off the ventilator tomorrow. No hope for her heart with multiple blockages which they say is inoperable so if she can make it in the short term we just don’t know how long it might be. She will have to move & live with her daughter if she can make it out of the hospital. She has pneumonia now & an unexplained infection which they are now trying to track. Thanks for the prayers & hugs. I am back to dancing today. I have already put in a set of almost an hour. Back to work now, but I will be dancing again this evening & hope some of you will join me. Good luck everyone on this round!

02/03 ….. 186.9….. Drats! The same, but it’s my own fault. I am certainly eating my emotions. Still dancing, eating back some of my calories with the dance but still staying under . However, it doesn’t work that way with carbs, so I’m getting nowhere. I’ve got to pull my emotions together here! STOP LEANING ON FOOD FOR EVERYTHING! I am just thankful there was not a gain. 1353 Total Calories. 75 Net Carbs of mostly junk. Burned 2557 total calories. 14,807 steps & 6.27 miles all of which are helping me to at least maintain. 13/13 fitbit stephours. 4 hours 16 minutes of sleep. IF 16:8. I danced for 71 minutes burning 434 calories. Calorie burn does depend on the songs I choose. Sample song was “Got it Wrong” by the Wildfeathers. Sis continues to show very minor improvements in some areas. Thanks for the well wishes. Heavy workload today as there are lots of checkouts and cleanings in my cabins. I’ll get in lots of steps today more than likely.

Huh interesting. I didn’t have an overly active day yesterday as I was pretty much house bound due to the weather. I did do some housework and was bored so I did a whole bunch of snow shovelling. Food also wasn’t spectacular since it was also just kind of scrounge from what I had in the cupboards, but kept within calories. A bit of dog training today and grocery shopping. Have a great day everyone.

Ending Weight Round 66: 153

02/02 152.6
02/03 151.6
Last night I was looking through photos on phone. Wow, am I thinner than 15 months ago. I checked my weigh back then, and I can’t believe I’m 40lbs down.

But tgefteally amazing part was looking at photos from May 2018. I look so much leaner. Again, I checked, and I’m about 20lbs down. This is notable because my Inner Critic has been saying “See, you’ve barely lost anything since April.” NOT!! I look - and feel - light years better. Kicks that voice to the door!

Then I decided to take my
Measurements - basically ALL of them. LOL
Measured waist holding it in & natural, for example. Amazingly, my hips have gotten smaller. I guess muscle dies take up
Less space! If someone had told me this was even possible, I would have said “no way.”

Very happy. If you are mid-weight loss journey, I beg you to keep going. You will not believe how much better you will feel - and look. My goal all along was to lose enough that I felt good about myself and would be willing to fight to maintain it
It will likely take another 5-10 lbs, but I’m not giving up. I’d like a 30 inch waist. After seeing my hips shrink smaller than I could have ever imagined, I’m beginning to believe waist will actually trim down too.😇

2/2 - 132.8 - yesterday just under maintenance calories, 7500 steps.

02/02 149.7 yesterday was a good day. I'm nervous about tomorrow. I have two food centered event today, including a chocolate chip cookie bake off and a dumpling party. Lord, give me strength.
02/03 149.6 lesson for the day... When you don't get a lot of calories allotted for each day (1200), eating a cookie eats up like a quarter of your calories. That's insane. And leaves you feeling pretty hungry, since a cookie does not satiate. It was really hard not to over eat yesterday. I made it, and the scale obviously forgave me for the cookie bake off I attended, but really hard. What are people's strategies for making it through today? (those of you watching that sports thing going on).

This is my fourteenth round (following my lucky thirteenth in which I finally showed my January loss!) I set some mini-goals for another challenge. My prospects had been looking pretty bleak, but I did actually see January's goal of 149 on 1/30, even though I ended the 10 days at 151. I would love to get to 148 this round...but would be happy at 149 as well! We can do it! Stay strong everyone!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 - 150 -- Looking to see that elusive 149 again, but this is in the right direction! Yesterday I walked, did strength class and yoga. Then I donated blood and ate some carbs, but not too many! Hoping to continue last 10 days good trend and get back on track for my mini-goals. Although I realized I might have to revise them anyway as I somehow planned on keeping up a pound a week loss right up to goal weight. It might make more sense to aim for 1/2 pound a week as I move from 145 to 135!

02/03 - 149 !! Ok. Second time with the 149! I'm going to say January mini-goal achieved!

Last day of this round I will be on a plane leaving for our 6 day vacation. No Kids, no animals, just my DH and I. So that means I have 10 days to do my best work and stay on track so that I can have fun and not stress about the scale while I am away. Round 67 here we go!

End of Rnd 66:147.6 which is a new low for me (Avg 10 day was 149.56)
Goal 146.xx and get my Avg 10 day lower

02/02 - 148.5 up a little today. Had a couple of beers last night to celebrate my son getting into the college he wanted. So I expected a little bit of an up tick. Have to get up early and do some cleaning and then get some shopping done. We will see how it goes.
02/03 - 151.1 up some more. Again expected. This weekend we have had lots of eating out and lots of celebrations. Going to try and do better today and not let myself continue to go downhill.

02/03 - 327.4 - I'm happy with this. It's less than where I was a week ago.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 / 177.6 / Didn't work out.
02/03 / 176.2 / A miracle. I did work out, but wasn't expecting to see this on the scale. Today has not been great calorie-wise though, so I'm expecting a bit of an increase tomorrow.
