** ROUND 71 **
# 7 for me
GW end of round – 372 - Surpassed goal @ 368!
GW 299 – End of 2019 (6.2)
Day/Weight/Comment
03/14 378.4 (-0.4) – My goal this round is to focus, focus, focus! No more red rounds! My goal is to lose 4 to 6 pounds per round. If I don't lose that much no worries – I am not beating myself up. But I am determined not to have any more red rounds! I can do that at least! So to help me do that, I reset my ticker yesterday to my 2019 start weight, which I am over by 5.4 pounds. I have really been struggling but I am going to try to come out of this slump because life is just not getting any easier as we struggle in these trying times. My goal this year is lose 50 to 75 pounds and to do that I am really going to have to buckle down. My ticker is set for 75 but I will gladly take 50 plus in a heartbeat and nothing less than that for sure. I think having something already on the ticker is not helping me so I am trying something new. I have to keep trying and trying until I get it right!
My Dad is doing pretty good considering he is in hospice in a nursing home. In February it has been over year. Life goes on, so I have to find a way to make me a priority also. Baby steps
I am also working on increasing my sleeping hrs per night. I am happy to say this week I have slept 3 days since Monday over 7 hrs! I have not slept 7 hrs 3 nights in a week in a loooong time, so I am proud of that and I am going to try to keep it going because this helps me for sure.
I am really going to try to check in here more often too. That too will help me because I will be more mindful. I will read something to inspire, etc. The rounds I lost -- I checked in more also. Even if I don't have time to comment every day, I want to log my weight at least.
03/15 378.4 (-0.0) – Went over my points but did my exercise and got my 7000 steps. Short on sleep but feeling great and back on it today. Pre-planning for weekend so I can maintain or even lose a pound or more. We will see. I usually make my goal for weekend to maintain or not to gain. If I do that I am doing good. Past weekends I have blown my whole week on the weekend. Now I can maintain and even lose. I may go up one day and come right back down the next because I try not to have 2 or 3 bad days if you include Friday.
03/16 374.8 (-3.6)
- yesterday I resisted fast food after visiting my Dad in nursing home. Came home, had some eggs and grits. I also decided this morning to switch WW plans. I going to online only which will save me $25 a month since I am not going to meetings anyway but I love their points program. Right now the meetings are not in the plan for me and I rather use God, family, MFP and my therapist who I see Tuesday for my support system for now. That is my new plan for now. Giving up is not an option for me! 
03/17 373.6 (-1.2) - I got in my 7000 steps yesterday. Since I was over my WW points yesterday, I was surprised I was down today. I think I may be up tomorrow. Not sure since I did eat a lot of protein and hardly any carbs. Back on track a little bit today. But I know I will be down overall this weekend for sure -- so a win win.
03/18 372.6 (-1.0) - This week has been awesome. Since last Monday I have lost over 8 pounds! Finally consistently going down. I have revamped my game plan going forward and feeling good. Now to just keep the consistency going is the real challenge. But I am going to do it! Glad to finally wipe out the gain for this year and see the 1 pound on my ticker. 
I got in another 7 hours of sleep last night too. Sleep is a key factor for me. It helps me stay focused. I can definitely tell the difference when I get in those zzz’s!
03/19 369.6 (-3.0)- Now to stick the new decade! Yay! I know this is going to slow down but I am going to enjoy every minute of it for now and try to keep it going as long as I can. lol
03/20 376.2 (+6.6) - I had 2 items yesterday with a lot of salt and I did overeat but not to the tune of 7 pounds. So we will see tomorrow. I sorta got back on track today. Had a salad for dinner tonight and resisted fast foods but had sweets at work. So I will see what my buddy says in the morning. Nite nite.
03/21 372.4 (- 3.8)Yeah!! Got my 7000 steps and 6 hrs of sleep. Over my points but no fast foods. Had a salad for dinner and drunk plenty of water to get rid of that salt. I saw 360’s this morning. I am really shooting for 369 by Saturday. If not I will still be at my goal for the end of this challenge. I had an awesome session with my therapist Tuesday too. She is very good.
03/22 375 (+ 3.2) – crazy and no explanation for it. My scale is crazy. I sent the new scale back. I will try one more time. Right now too busy so I will just keep using the old one.
03/23 368 (- 7.6) YEAH!! 10.4 pounds down!! That is crazy, but I love it!

Day/Weight/Comment
3/14 - 171.2 - 20g carbs, 15g net carbs. Carbs were: steamables golden potatoes (6.5gcarb), salad, deli smoked turkey, manzanilla olives, cucumber ranch dressing, au jus sauce. Okay, my weight has settled here for today. Probably that tiny potato 😂 Dinner was 2 hours later than I planned, due to this HUGE chuck roast I was cooking. It took 2+ hrs in the pressure cooker! with a couple of stops and starts to check it during the process. Should have put the 2nd weight on the pot.
3/15 - 172.2 - 32g carbs, 26g net carbs. Carbs were: salad, olives, dill pickle, grape tomatoes, jalapenos, peanut butter, almonds, walnuts, deli smoked turkey. A little fluid retention..... from exercise, not carbs! Knee is behaving, so back to strengthing quads and hams. Taking it low and slow, but consistently. I'm dealing with old shoulder injuries too, so must not be impatient with myself trying to do sets, reps and long workouts like I used to do.
3/16 - 173 - Normal fluctuation. 35g carbs, 27g net carbs. Carbs were: Strawberries, salad, peanut butter, celery, carrot, apple in chicken salad, cranberry cheddar, spaghetti squash, au jus sauce. Did not take vitamins 2 days, Th, F.
3/17 - 171.2 - 38g carbs, 28g net carbs. Too much peanut butter! Need B's. I did take my vitamins. Carbs were: green beans, au jus sauce, olives, deli smoked turkey, peanut butter.
Carb count increased from peanut butter.
3/18 - 171 - 26g carbs, 19g net carbs. Carbs were: eggs, spinach, salad, strawberries, peanut butter, sundried tomato dressing. It's going to be a slow roll with some backtracking out of the 170's. That was my normal pattern of weightloss before October 2018. Now I've buckled down and become conscious of the issues holding me in this decade for so long. With humbleness, prayer, guidance and thankfulness, I'm certain that I will exit this learning phase successfully. ☺
3/19 - 171.2 - 21g carbs, 16g net carbs. Carbs were: peanut butter, spinach and peppers as toppings on chicken crust pizza. Not very hungry yesterday, only ate 2/3 of allotted calories. If it wasn't for the peanut butter it would have been closer to 1/3!
3/20 - 172.2 - Back here again, but it's not 177 thank goodness! 32g carbs, 25g carbs. Carbs were: guacamole, peanut butter, uncured turkey hotdogs, salad, cauliflower, low carb bbq sauce.
3/21 - 170.6 - She's (my body) trying to come to terms with what I'm doing. I guess.😁 35g carbs, 30g net carbs. Carbs were: uncured turkey hotdogs, spaghetti squash, salad, guacamole, cream cheese.
3/22 - 172.8 - Mmmm, giving me push back today.😑 Did not take vitamins yesterday. 26g carbs, 20g net carbs. Carbs were: arugula/spinach, salad, peanut butter, lemon juice & zest, roasted red pepper dressing, multigrain tortilla chips (1/2 oz)
3/23 - 172.2 - Worked weak glutes, hams and quads pretty good yesterday. Felt it last night, couldn't wait to go to bed! Slept okay, but woke up tired. 32g carbs, 23g net carbs. Carbs were: cabbage, salad, salad dressing, peanut butter, salsa in turkey taco. 10 day average is improving!

03/14/19. 211.8#. Taking a one day break from working out today. Back at it tomorrow. Had a great day! Feeling good! Didn't stay under the recommended calories, but I stayed under 2,000. I'm pleased with that.
03/15 211.8#. I'm down 2.2# from last Friday. Workout-strength. It's Friday. Fasted most of the day.
03/16 210.2#. I'm 0.2# from my goal weight. This week I have been feeling so much better! I've had a cookie that wasn't home cooked, otherwise I'm at 13 days of not eating processed food. I worked out 5 days this week. Today will be #6.
03/17 210.6#. One thing I learned today: don't eat 2 servings of a new recipe and then figure out how many calories it is. Not good! If I figure in my exercise, I'm under 2,000 calories. Only 56 ounces of water today.
03/18 211#. Totally went nuts at supper. 3 servings of alfredo even after knowing the calories. No motivation for anything. Didn't workout today. Super lazy.
03/19 210.8#. 30 minutes exercise. 1,526 calories in. 66 oz water.
03/20 210#. GOAL REACHED. New goal 200#. Ate when hungry. Had a couple major cravings today, but I didn't give in. 1,517 calories in. 88 oz water.
03/21 209.8#. 97 oz water. 1,455 calories. Felt pretty good today. I've been tired all week, but I haven't gone to bed early either.
03/22H8 209.2#. Down 2.6#from last Friday. Fasted until supper. 1,724 calories in. Ate out today and had dessert. Very happy with my choices. 75 oz water.
03/23 209#. Water park today. My water intake might suffer a bit. I'm going to try to bring a water bottle. Eating out again.7 -
Round #5 for me.
Followed a 1000 calorie diet for the last 5 weeks! Lost some weight during the first 3 rounds but not as much as I expected and the last round was Disappointing for me. I gained .6 lbs
.. Still hanging in there. Got some great advice from other members here and will make some changes this round.. I'm trying now the 5:2 diet, where I'm eating free for five days of the week (up to 1700 calories) and the other two days restrict calories to 500–600 per day. Hope I'll see good results this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/14 - 222.2 - Yesterday my stats were 14,600steps, 3200cals out, 600cals in. I only need about 7000-8000steps today to meet my weekly target of 70,000 so that's what I will be aiming for. My goal calorie wise is to stay under 1700cals today. Have a great day all X
03/15 - 223.6 - Yesterday stats were 7200steps, 2700cals out, 1650cals in. I feel very in control at the moment, today is a fast day and I am aiming for 10,000 steps or more. I want to stay more committed to my eating goals over the weekend, I am not going to fuss about steps but calories need to be 2000 or lower on both days X
03/16 - 222.0 - 18,500 steps, 3600cals out, 880cals in. I was hoping to atleast be in the 221.xx range today, Owel even more incentive to eat well today so I'm not then struggling with excess water. Today's goals are just to stay under 2000cals, I only need another 3500steps today so I can complete my week on 80,000steps but I will easily achieve that so not much point setting it as a goal. Enjoy your weekends all X
03/17 - 223.2 - 4500 steps, 2500cals out, 2300cals in. Not a good day yesterday, not only was I very lazy but I didn't even stick to my calorie goals. Today is the first day of a new week on my apps, last week I finished on 80,900steps, 1480cals on average in a day, 3020cals on average out a day. I'm very happy with that, hopefully I will see a drop on the scales some time before the end of this challenge X
03/18 - 221.4 - 10,777 steps, 2950 cals out, 2500cals in. Still way over on calories. Today is a fast day, aiming to do atleast 10,000 steps. Chicken chow mien for dinner tonight X
03/19 - 221.0 - 15,580 steps, 3400cals out, 1250cals in, not the fast day I had planned, my ex was putting me through a lot of stress (I mean when isn't he lately? But this was even worse than usual) and I just gave into my emotions, had a little meltdown, ate some chocolate and cheese and then went and laid in bed unable to get to sleep for hours and then even when I did sleep it was very light and broken. Not feeling great today, I have given into his harassment and bullying again just to get him to leave me alone but feeling very tired and emotionally drained today, I need to try to not let that affect my eating though. Enjoy your day all X
03/20 - 222.6 - 7750 steps, 2700cals out, 2150cals in. Not ideal food, I just felt so tired. Still didn't get a good nights sleep last night and because I didn't do a lot of anything yesterday I have a fair amount to do round the house. Today is a fast day, I am going to stick to it strictly.
03/21- dnw
03/22 - 222.0 - came on period
03/23 - dnw. My steps for last week have been 78,000 so I have met one of my goals this challenge of averaging over 10,000 steps a day but my diet has not been good the last few day, stress, an infection in my gum and being around that time of the month has just completely derailed me. Tomorrow I get serious again.6 -

Previous Daily Summaries13/03
Reasonably good end to the round, happy with that, especially with shark week turning up a couple of days early this month, so cravings kicked in over the weekend. Onwards and downwards!
14/03
Had a maintenance day yesterday on account of shark week, managed to squash in a pizza and a muffin. Much lighter day today will be grabbing a chicken salad sandwich from deli for lunch and having veggie curry this evening. Off to Denmark in the morning, taking advantage of the long weekend (St Patricks Day bank holiday)so won't be back here til Tuesday. I'll weigh in, in the morning as normal but won't be around to update it as I use my work computer for this challenge. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
20/03
Had a lovely time in Denmark, lots of walking, exploring museums and the local area in Aarhus. Back to work today, so plenty more walking and plan to do some strength training this evening.
21/03
Happy Friday Eve! It's only 08:50 and I've already had a fairly active morning - Cycled 3km into work, walked to/from rowing training (around 2km) and rowed on the river for 1 hour including lifting the boats in and out. Planning to go for a walk at lunch time, leaving the bike at work so I can walk home this evening to get my steps up (Have signed up for another stepbet so need to be hitting around 12500 per day) and then another walk to get some groceries. I have a lovely salad for lunch (not a rabbit food type salad, it's about 850 calories)and then I have some pre-prepped Thai Spiced Peanut Butter Chicken for dinner with some stirfry veg and broccoli.
22/03
Just a quick update today as busy with some online shopping (payday and Friday all at once yay!)
23/03
Not a bad round, I have had shark week and a holiday during this round so small gain was fine with me.

03/14 - 274.4 - Had a great PT session last night. My trainer really pushed me and I upped quite a few of my weights on some lifts. I also joined the gym yesterday so I can do my training another day during the week. I am out on Saturday night so i'm trying to save a few hundred calories here and there so I don't go over my weekly calorie goal.
03/15 - 274 - So achy from Wednesdays PT session! It's just over 9 weeks till my cousins wedding and I told myself I was going to complete the C25K before it. So going to start that with some friends tonight. Got a busy busy weekend this weekend. Up first thing tomorrow to get the horses done, PT session at 9, meeting up with friends at 10:30 for breakfast, at a 1st birthday party in the afternoon and then an engegement party at night! Hope I can track my food and alcohol for the day! Started the C25K
03/16 - 272.2 - Had a PT session, out for breakfast, at a buffet lunch and takeaway tea!
03/17 - 274.2 - Ok with this after yesterdays food!
03/18 - 273.4 - One off PT session tonight with the OH
03/19 - 273.2 - Did W1 D2 of the C25K
03/20 - 272.6
03/21 - 272.2 - Had a great training session last night. It was only me who turned up so I ended up having a personal one! Started doing deadlifts with barbells.
03/22 - 272 - Went for a run again last night, I really struggled with my legs. It's something that i've had a while. My earliest memory of it was about 16! It doesn't happen every time but when it does it's just so painful, almost like that painful stage of cramp. I started getting it during my warm up so knew I wasn't in for a good session. I had a quick google and located the pain in the Peroneal Tendons. No idea what it could be. Meant to be running again tonight.

03/14 177.1 Stayed withing calories and walked 4 miles last night. It was 64 degrees and sunny after being SUPER rainy all morning. It was a great walk and a good dinner after. I had hoped to see something a little lower this morning but I guess not.
03/15 176.9 Sure I saw 175 but only briefly, damn flirty scale. Walked 3.5 on the treadmill at the gym. Made sure I was under the HGTV screen because at least it's something interesting to watch while I'm walking hooked up my headphones and boom - the channel goes out. Talk about first world problems. I should be able to walk outside this afternoon at 47 and sunny. Happy Friday all! Here's to good choices this weekend.
03/16 No Scale but I walked Friday night and Saturday.
03/17 177.7 I hate this weight. I've been here for approximately 20 days and another 10 days at an even higher weight. Spent the day babysitting my niece who was cranky, she is not enjoying being weaned.
03/18 177.5 I feel like I need to change things up. I have been at this same basic weight for a month. It's super frustrating. I need to think about what to do. Keeping my head down and doing the same thing isn't working and it's time to address that. I spent yesterday going thru all my winter clothes and donated 2 bags. It occurred to me that I probably have no summer/spring clothes that fit me. Lots of big comfy tshirts but I don't know if I have a single pair of capris or shorts that will fit. I know it's just March but shopping season never ends
03/19 No Scale Traveling again. I decided to eat maintenance for a few days to give myself a break. Still exercising and tracking but I set my calories at 1700 and I'm not going to freak out about it. I got in 3 miles last night though not on the cool trail. I'm going to try to do the cool trail tomorrow on the drive home. Tonight is weights, I upped several weights last week and was a little sore, we'll see how it goes tonight.
03/20 No Scale Meetings this morning, then driving home with a planned stop along the Katy Trail for a quick walk. If you're in Missouri you should check it out, if I had more time I'd try other stops.
03/21 179.1 Sodium and two days of driving has upped this number. Got in 3.2 miles and was very happy to spend an hour outside on the first day of spring walking along the Missouri river before it's too high to do so safely. Eating at maintenance was harder than I thought. I'm giving myself until Monday. I was, with exercise within calories yesterday but it was a close thing. An old friend is staying with me for a few days and we went to dinner last night after the long drive home.
03/22 179.1 I didn't expect anything so this is what it is. No exercise yesterday, calories within goal. I'm going to try and enjoy the weekend. I've got I-don't-want-to-workitis so badly today it's all I can do to sit in my office. Add to that my boss is out of the office and it's sunny and warm. I predict that I will NOT work until 5:00 today. I'm guessing 3:30ish and a long walk, my brain needs it.
03/23 177 Well at least I got back to where I started.3 -

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. MaxwellMy goal for 2019 is to get into ONEderland. Changing my life.
Plans:
- Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target 70k steps per week
- Drink more water (target min 64 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
- Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018)
- Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
- Drink less alcohol (4 AF days per week; ~16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Round 71: This round I need to stay focused on my monthly goal even though I’ll not have a scale to step back on until 3/26! The number of the scale moves up and down whether or not I'm stepping on it daily for the reminder. Reminder to self to continue tracking streak, reduce snacking on poor choices, drink more water and be active every day in some way shape or form!
