Previous Daily Summaries

22/04
Extremely busy weekend, rowing every day Thurs - Sat, including my first sea row out to one of the islands.
23/04
Back to work after a long weekend, starting my logging again today after a little 3 week hiatus, down just over a pound during that period so I am quite pleased with that.

24/04
I am into the last week of my StepBet Challenge - woohoo. My food logging was pretty accurate yesterday probably hit around maintenance and was a little low on protein, haven't had a chance to do any meal prep this week yet as have things on after work every night. So just doing what I can to stay at a small deficit over the week.

25/04
Feeling a bit exhausted this week, I don't normally socialise too much during the week, I prefer to get my exercise and food prep done on these evenings, however, I've had stuff on every night this week, which is quite unusual and it's definitely taking it's toll on me with both food choices and exercise. Looking forward to a much quieter week next week.

26/04
Thank kitten it's Friday, even though it was a 4 day work week, it feels like it's been the longest week ever. I have a rowing race over the weekend which has been postponed from Sat to Sun thanks to Storm Hannah which is a bit of a blessing as it means I can have a quiet night tonight and a bit of a lie in, get caught up on some housework and do some food prep.

I am in for another round, the last round towards the end I got sick and things got all crazy. I am starting the round off with being sick so hopefully can push forward here.
This is my goal from another group - May 1st – 195 – (group challenge – 25lbs). I am not feeling confident but will be pushing forward as much as my body will allow.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/23 – 200.2 this is ok, with still being sick. It is best to maintain then to keep going in an upward direction.
04/24 – 198.6 I am not sure how accurate this is, because still not eating right, drinking water or exercising.

R75 start weight - 144.2lb

No doubt when I get back home from our 4 days away and weigh in, my weight will be up but aiming to finish the round down on the end of last round - would love to see 142.5lb ......

04/23 - DNW - and we're home. 4 days of eating out, drinking in the evenings, hotel breakfasts, junk at cheer competition and service station stops - UUUGGGHHH! Why is quick "take-out" / on the road / mass event catering style food always so bad? A National Sporting event and it was all burgers, hot dogs, nachos, chips..... Glad to be home to get back on track and eat some colour again. Food for today planned and will get to the gym tonight for an hour. Just realised we only have 15 weeks till our main summer holiday so time for some serious action as equates to 10 JGM10 rounds left.... Off to unpack now and head to the supermarket for some decent food! Water is the aim of my day.....

04/24 - 146.3lb (+2.1lb) up from the weekend unsurprisingly - although knowing it would be up doesn't help when you actually see it Good food day planned for today, water bottle at my side and my target for the round is to end it lower than I started so need to lose at least 2.2lb over the next 8 days - totally do-able - just need to remain focused. Back to work but still feeling so tired from the weekend...
Nothing in the diary for those 8 days that means I can't remain focused so off we go!

04/25 - 144.7lb (-1.6lb) Pleased with that as it means most of the weekend excess and bloat has gone. Have planned and prepped today and will be at the gym for a PT session tonight. Had a late night last night as stayed up with my girls to watch the All Girls Junior Team England Cheerleaders win gold at the worlds in Orlando so need to try hard to resist temptations today (and will be another late one as the Seniors compete tonight!). Have a good one everyone

04/26 - 145.0lb (+0.3lb) STOP - Wrong way!! No problem with overall calorie intake but on the macros side yesterday was too carb heavy and I was way over on my carbs. Planned today a bit better so hope to see the scale drop tomorrow.......

04/26 - 156.1 - There it is. TOM hasn't arrived yet (slightly odd but it does like to be late sometimes) so I'm assuming this is a combination of TOM and not enough water yesterday. I don't feel super bloated and my stomach seems flatter (though nowhere near what it was on Monday but better than my "normal") so I'll take that as a good sign this is temporary. I have my first baseball game tonight and a murder mystery dinner tomorrow night. Let's see how I do

Previous day's comments for R75

04/23- Starting off on a drop which makes me nervous because that means I have to really work to stay on track to end at or below this weight (hit this weight 3 times now, always end up higher. Think its usually a fluke). TOM is coming this week, though, so hopefully it'll show itself and disappear quickly so I can see actual weight and what's going on (: AND AND AND I'm only 0.6 lbs away from my 10lb loss which means my tattoo may have been a bit early, but wanting to show it off has been great motivation for me to keep going. Gotta get that confidence! Only 2.5lbs away from my post-surgery army weight. 10 more pounds and I'm at the top of the range for my pre-surgery army weight and high end of goal. So much happening!
04/24 - what is this?! I double checked. Especially weird given TOM will be here any day and I usually gain during that time. I won't complain but I'm not holding a lot of hope (but still a little bit I'll hold on to) it'll stick. Maybe this is the whoosh from last round finally hitting

04/23 – 142.5 – Heading back down after the holiday weekend.
04/24 – 142.5 – I did not sleep well at all last night. I was up 4 times going to the bathroom, so I actually expected to be lower this morning. I’ll be drinking a lot of water today, but will probably limit the amount I drink this evening.
04/25 – 142 – I slept great last night and kept my food on point.
04/26 – 141 – Just in time for the weekend!

and I put all of the weight back on. I am going to be consistant with tracking my food...good or bad...and
get healthier this year.

04/25 192.6 Yay! Hope to keep this downward trend going. It'a rainy today so I plan on walking the stairs today at work and drinking lots of water.
04/26 191.4 Alright! Apparently I was holding a lot of water weight from my Easter weekend indulgences. Hoping to get in the 180's by the end of this round.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/23- 327.8- I have MCAS and woke up in a flair this morning, swollen and rashy, so I’m surprised the scale went down at all, but I’m glad it did.
04/24- 327.8- this is a frustrating moment. I was soooooo good about foods, sodium, getting my water and even walking. I know that it’s fine that the scale doesn’t move but it just feels bad.
04/25- 328.8- if this is some cosmic test, I’m not feeling it. I stayed in my calories, I got my water in. I’m so frustrated and I don’t understand why I’m stuck in this limbo.
04/26- 325.2- yesterday was a bad day, and I went over my calories and had pie so I was sure that today would be an up day on the scale, but no! I am really glad to see the number move back to doing better today!

Ending weight round 72 - 145.3
Ending weight round 73 - 143.7
Ending weight round 74 - 145.7

UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's. Will see what's attainable when I get in the 130's

Goal for round 75 - regroup! Had a high gain at the end of round 74, no set goal just trying to reset after travel and illness and way too much stress eating.

4/23 145.3. Still have a nasty cough so not able to exercise yesterday. Did better with my food choices, although I did dip in to my daughter’s Easter basket. Happy to see a drop and hope it continues. Can’t wait until I can get moving again.

4/24 - 144.6. Still sick, went to doctor yesterday and got some meds to help with the cough. Hoping that helps, not resting is really hard! Wins yesterday: seeing the doctor, tracked food and stayed within calorie goal, hydrated well, took an easy walk with the dog. Hoping to be more active today, starting to go a little stir crazy from the lack of movement.

4/25 - 145.1. Slowly feeling human again. Not happy about the gain but my body is all out of whack due to illness so I didn’t know what to expect. Wins yesterday: slow run/walk, hydrated well, meds helping me feel better. I was bummed about this number going up until I noticed that today is one month since I started tracking and I’ve lost 5 lbs. That is a healthy, sustainable loss and if I could lose 5 lbs a month I’ll be at goal 2 months from now. Feeling more positive after that.

4/26 - 145.1. My body and my mind are stuck! Wins yesterday: long walk with dog. That's about it. Still not sleeping thanks to this cough that likes to pop up at night. Can't lay flat (I do have a prescription cough med that I got but it's not helping the nighttime/laying flat issue). Being tired typically leads to bad decisions. TOM coming in a few days so I'm super hungry. Goal for today is to regroup and plan for the weekend. My daughter has a 2-day softball tournament so we won't be home at all Sat/Sun. Need to pack my snacks and bring plenty of water, and be very mindful when we eat out. I don't know that I'll be able to fit in a workout Saturday, Sunday is a possibility. I don't want these to turn in to excuses but rather just things that are part of my day that I will work around. Happy Friday to all!

4/26 – 229.2 Why yes, I do feel like a YoYo – ughhhhh weight fluctuations - gotta stay focused so they are only fluctuations not permanents! Thankful for the accountability that these daily check-ins gives me – it has helped me to understand that sometimes I YoYo but if I don’t derail when I see the spiked #s then I keep on losing and that’s the goal!

4/23 175.7 I skipped a round but still weighed everyday. I missed the therapeutic experience of typing out my frustrations. I am happy enough with that number. I did see 172.7 while I was away but I knew it was an anomaly so I didn't change my weight. I have completed all three rings on my Apple watch 9 of the last 10 days, only 3 days this month when I didn't do at least 30 minutes of exercise a day. To be fair I counted hours of yard work as exercise but I cut down 3 truck loads of brush in the last two weeks and hauled it off to the "green" dump. Below is a pic of my beautiful great niece on my lap. I am posting it because you can see my legs and for the first time in my life I'm not completely embarrassed by them. Sure they're still big but not as lumpy. We had a great Easter.
4/24 177.7 It's water from leftover Easter ham. I swear I am never making ham again, 3 little ounces has 38% of your daily recommended amount of sodium. Do you think I only had 3 oz? I think 2 pounds gained in 24 hours tells the story better than I can. Went to the gym for an hour on the machines. Driving today, I may or may not stop to walk. Depends on the weather and how tired I am when I get there. I'm torn between keeping my exercise streak on my phone and tired legs. But after being stuck in the car for a couple of hours a thirty minute walk would feel good.
4/25 No Scale I stopped for my walk, three miles only. It kept looking like it was going to rain. The bluffs are so cool at this spot. Turkey vultures nest on top, so you are treated to an aerial show on the way. I stayed within goal despite the froyo for dessert.
4/26 No Scale I took a short walk yesterday and had a good work day. Today work a little in the morning (just at the hotel, no need to dress like a banker) then hit the road. I'm looking for new trails that are close to the highway. I love the All Trails app. I really wish I would have had it when I was traveling around the country and not just to St Louis. Oh well. Stayed within goal yesterday and found a new health food conscious restaurant to go for lunch. Happy Friday ya'll!

This is my 6th round! I have had lots of success during this process. I am going to be on my diet break during this entire round eating at maintenance to reset. I reached my 192.0 pound goal on my official weigh in day Friday April 19th. I'm also curious to see how the process works at maintenance for the future. We'll see how it goes! Good luck to all!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/23: 195.4 (A slight decrease back to baseline! I ate around 1600 calories yesterday AND worked out, so I'm still at a deficit since my maintenance calories are set at 1960. It's pretty difficult to eat more during the week. I guess this means I'll have extra treats over the weekend. I did a 10 minute elliptical workout followed by 15 minutes of HIIT on the elliptical and finally a core workout. I made Cajun grilled chicken with asparagus and had some rice.)

04/24: 194.2 (I'm having a hard time sticking to my calories! Yesterday I ate 1375 calories and did a 50 minute elliptical workout. I was supposed to have 2613 calories with my maintenance and exercise calories . At least I'm going down toward my maintenance weight of 192.0 pounds. I made spaghetti and meatballs last night and had a decent sized bowl.)

04/25: 193.4 (My boss brought me an unexpected glazed donut and large hot chocolate from Dunkin Donuts yesterday. Oh goodness! Definitely not planned, but I drank half the hot chocolate and donut since the sugar content was too much for my liking. I did a 25 minute elliptical workout mixed with some HIIT. I made some grilled chicken pitas yesterday for dinner. So this loss is pretty nice considering the sugar high I had.)

04/26: 193.4 (I gained 1.4 pounds since last Friday. I calculated my calories from last Friday until last night and I had a deficit of almost 4500 calories over the week and still gained. I've been eating lots of high sodium things these past few days and I'm sure that is the reason for the gain. I've also increased exercise by 5 minutes this week per day but I don't think it would've made that much of a difference. Last night I had 2 slices of pizza for dinner and it was my day off from exercise too.)
