JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 75

TerriRichardson112

I'm fairly philosophical about my choices at Easter. I knew the consequences, so won't beat myself up about them, especially as the weight went as quickly as it came!

JGM10D ~|~ Round 75
Posting weight and comments each evening.
My aim for 2019 is to reach 155.
I am FOCUSED on heathy food choices and DETERMINED to achieve my goals!

Age: 72; Height 5’2”; Female
SW: 227lbs (Mar 2014)
LW: 153 (Oct 2016)

Tu 23/04: 164.2: Goals ✅ 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 The scale continues to drop!
We 24/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ Ah well, a wee bounce up is not unexpected.
Th 25/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ Holding steady is good!
Fr 26/04: 164.6: Goals ✅
Sa 27/04: 164.4: Goals ✅💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 Can’t be bad to that! 😂
Su 28/04: 164.0: Goals ✅Couldn't find yesterday's post.
Mo 29/04: 163.8: Goals ✅Didn't believe this at first this morning, but, yep! There it was.
Tu 30/04: 165.8: Goals ✖️Woke up after a bad night. My knee is swollen and I can barely move with the pain. Not much appetite either. The weight gain is all the fluid round my knee joint. Once the knee is sorted it will go.
We 01/05: 164.8: Goals: move more than I did yesterday ✅ Knee is slowly recovering. And some of the swelling has gone.
Th 02/05: xxx: Goals

Previous Round

Round 73 ~|~ End Goal: < 166
Sa 13/04: no scale: Goals: Have fun! Away on a weekend break. ✅ Had Rather too much fun yesterday made much better food choices today 😂 Rocking the night away. Had a prawn starter as a main and drank mostly water. Dancing until the small hours 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Su 14/04: no scale: Goals: Pack and drive home. Drive home was uneventful, but haven't eaten since lunch time. Tummy is upset, having an early night. Will weigh in the morning.
Mo 15/04: 165.8: Goals ✅ Amazed that my weekend away hasn't put the scale up by much! Happy days!
Tu 16/04: 165.4: Goals ✅ 😁 And a wee drop! Yay!
We 17/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ 😁 I'm liking this streak! Long may it contimue.
Th 18/04: 164.2: Goals ✅ I can’t believe this! Woo! Hoo! I’m on a roll here! 😂
Fr 19/04: 164.0: Goals ✅ Oh My Goodness!!!
Sa 20/04: 164.2: Goals ✅ 🎈🎉🎈 73 today! I have had a brilliant day. Did lots of extra exercise so that I could indulge myself a little. I fully expect that weight may bounce up a little tomorrow, but hey! That's life.
Su 21/04: 165.2: Goals ✅ And there it is! Stayed under goal today, but a bit heavy on carbs so there might still be a wee bounce up tomorrow, because of water retention.
Mo 22/04: 164.6: Goals ✅ Well, that's a relief. Down over 1lb from the beginning of the round.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• 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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/23 - 270.0 - Up a bit, but had a ton of sodium yesterday. I had my water, but still the sodium was over by 1/2 a teaspoon. I walked a lot and completed Week 4, Day 2 of C25K. I did two episodes of Zombies, Run! I did not walk for an hour with either one as the timing wasn't right for it due to people either using the room or setting up to use the room. Food was okay.
04/24 - 268.6 - Still up, but TOM started yesterday morning. Sodium is still up too. I walked about 2 hours yesterday. Yesterday morning was rough, but got through it without emotional eating. My Fitbit crashed, and the replacement Fitbit was having errors, got it fixed with the help of a friend. So, today I am supposed to do Week 4, Day 2 of C25K, we'll see what happens as my CSS is coming at 10. More walking later in the day.
04/25 - 269.0 (Internet wasn't up and unable to post)
04/26 - 269.4 - Still creeping up even though period is starting to come to an end. I don't know what's going on. Exercise has been good. Food has been good. So I don't know if I am going to post a loss for this week or not. I did try a new food in Nutrition 101 yesterday, a jicama. We also had it in a salad that was pretty good. Today has been a productive day.
04/27 - 271.8 (unable to post)
04/28 - 268.4 - Back down a good deal, but not all the way. I don't know where things are going to end up. Today was my rest day. I have done very little moving today. I did do some cooking. There was an issue with a small fire in the building but the alarms didn't go off alerting us to the danger. Thankfully the fire department showed up anyways. It's late at night now so I won't type for long. I am stopping my C25K program until I can see my doctor. I think my electrolytes have gotten out of balance as my heart skips beats while I'm running but seems to be fine otherwise.
04/29 - 268.2 - Forgot to post, sorry
04/30 - 266.4 - Whoosh. I am slipping into depression. I mean when I can finally get that high from exercise, it feels great and I feel great, but when it's gone, I crash all over again. Dark thoughts circle through my head again. I thought I was passed all of this. I finally have a razor and had shaved my legs for the first time in 9 months. I can't think of a trigger. Just my brain has switched. I am still keeping up with self care best I can, it's just tougher now, is all. I'm not ready to give up yet.
05/01 - 266.0 - I'm still exercising. Today I have done a lot of walking to compete in a Fitbit challenge, and I'm whooping butt. I'm at over 35, 000 steps so far. I saw my CSS today and we got an appointment set up to see my therapist. I will see my dietitian in a couple of weeks as well. The increase in calories does seem to have finally slowed my weight loss, at least according to last week's numbers. I might be up tomorrow due to water in my leg muscles from all of the walking. The depression is still there. I'm doing what I can to fight it.

04/28 - Day 1 for me - 206.4

04/29 - 205.4 - So far so good. Looks like my cooking spree this weekend is going to be really helpful for getting me through the week for breakfast and lunch.

04/30 - 204.7 - Today was a bit of a struggle for me. I planned and cooked this past weekend knowing that I wouldn’t have time to prep AIP/Paleo breakfasts and lunches. What I failed to do was figure out dinners for the week. I find that I am getting home starving and have no idea what I can make that is fast, easy and AIP/Paleo compliant with what I have in the house. I have made a few small slips, but overall I have managed to get through the day. I will need to allocate time this coming weekend for meal planning, shopping and cooking with all 3 major meals in mind.

05/01 - 205.4 - Up today and not particularly happy about it. I have been trying so hard to follow my AIP/Paleo protocols, but they are not particularly weight loss friendly. My meals are much “healthier” than they were before, but I am routinely going over my calorie allowance by a couple hundred calories a day. I am worried that I may not be able to both lose weight and follow my protocols at the same time.
Sorry for the rant, I am just feeling very frustrated right now. I don’t want to have to choose between one or the other. I really want to be able to do both.

This is Round 1 for me.

Goals:
I've been pretty consistent with logging, so I'd like to focus on working in more activity.
1) Walk 30+ minutes each day
2) Active gardening or household task 30+ minutes each day
3) 64-80 oz. water per day

10 days round 75
Day/Weight/Comment
04/23 – 202.8 – Gorgeous day! 60 minute walk on a moderately challenging trail, but gardening was limited to 10 minutes of deadheading daffodils before relaxing in the sun. Squeezed in some grocery shopping after the walk and got the dishes done. Not enough sleep last night, so my energy is flagging. Got my water in though. 😊

04/24 – 201.6 – Another beautiful day – blue skies, sunshine, and the lilacs are blooming! Too pretty to stay indoors, so I took the dog for a long walk in the park (75 min, paved trail). Enjoying the last of the daffodils while I deadhead like crazy. Perennials are coming in, but so are the weeds! Rain moves in Thursday evening, so I’ll double down on chores then. Extra water! Good day 😊

04/25 – 201.2 – Walking this morning (45 min before work). Trash goes down tonight, so I’d better get that fridge cleaned! (Got part of this done – threw out the stinky stuff. Then did recycling, composting, and some general straightening for another half hour.) Super salty dinner, so lots of extra water!

04/26 – 201.2 – A break in the rain this morning, so I managed to squeeze in a 65-minute walk and then lunch out with my daughter. The sky opened up 5 minutes after I walked back in the door! Squeezing in an hour of power-cleaning so I can concentrate on the neglected garden this weekend.

04/27 – 201.2 – No walk, but worked in the garden all afternoon pulling weeds, planting summer bulbs, and filling a few hanging baskets to attract the hummingbirds. Feels like I bruised my instep trying to dig out a new bed – should have worn sturdier shoes. Despite 10+ cups of water, I was thirsty all day. Way too much salt this weekend ☹

04/28 – 203 – And there’s that salt ☹ Half hour walk before heading out to a family event. Stayed away from the salty snacks, kept within my calorie allowance, and stuck with sparkling water and green tea. Four more days to go in this challenge – still time to turn this around.

04/29 – 201.6 – And there it goes – well, some of it, at least. Back to my weekday routines, cooking (and seasoning) my own meals. 8+ waters. Chilly 40-min walk in the park before dinner, enjoying the scent of lilacs and freshly mown grass. Busy week ahead and lots of rain in the forecast, so I’ll try to squeeze in the walks when I can. The garden looks pretty good, but my indoor chore list is growing!!!

04/30 – 200.4 – 30 min walk, 8 waters, laundry and recycling. Lots of papers to grade, so I’m keeping comments brief tonight.

05/01 – 199.8 – Woo hoo! Didn’t expect to be here at this point, but I’ll take it. Late breakfast out with my grandson who had the morning off from school. Put off the walk until after class but got rained out and decided to take today as a rest day and get to bed at a decent hour. I’m thinking I might add sleep as a goal in the next round.

Ready for my round 12
Was on holiday for the last 2 rounds. In the past this would have meant a gain of 3kg or so. I didn't really try to lose (just did not want to gain) but managed to lose 1.9 kg over the 2 rounds.
OSW 88KG
RSW 73.7 kg (-14.3kg) or {-31.5 lbs}
Goal.... less than I started

04/23 73.6 kg a good start to the round and to going back to work. Started running again yesterday and did some pushups this morning.
04/24 74.5kg for no reason so I'm not worried as I always do this after a loss. Ran and tried some planks with the sunrise.
04/25 74.5kg and pushups done for the day
04/26 74.3kg 2k run and plank challenge day 5 which I will have to repeat tomorrow as it was a struggle!
04/27 73.0kg I think that is a woosh! But it is probably because I hardly ate yesterday and I feel dehydrated this morning. Day 5 of planks again and push up and squat challenges.
04/28 73.0kg hit my 15 kg {33lbs} loss target yesterday. Spent the weekend partying with my bestie who gets all their calories from alcohol and naturally does OMAD. I'm still on my extended dry January so drank a lot of water!
04/29 72.7kg with a quick run and D7 off plank challenge all done before sunrise. Ready for today! 😁
04/30 73.1kg! Usual blip up after a loss. Forgot I had a strength training class after work yesterday but I made it. Might do some social sport with colleagues after work today if I can. Did my pushups etc this morning
05/01 72.9 kg nice short run and D9 of plank challenge. Played netball yesterday for the 1st time in years which was surprisingly fun. My son's birthday today and a public holiday. I'll make him a cake but I won't be eating any!
05/02 72.4kg plank challenge and pushups done. Squats will have to be later. Feels like a Monday!
Loss for this round 1.3kg

This is my second round. Easter threw me off round 74, but it was worth it.

UGW - we‘ll see...

Goal for this challenge -3lbs

Day/Weight/Comment

04/23 187.1 lbs gained back a bit over Easter, but that’s ok with me. Goal for today: stay within limit, get in a good walk and finally track water intake consistently!

04/24 185.7 lbs did pretty well tracking water intake yesterday but my long walk was boycotted by my toddler. Goal for today: not as much snacking as yesterday!

04/25 183.8 lbs Nice! Mostly water, but I’ll take it! 😃

04/26 183.5 lbs slow and steady!

04/27 183.4 lbs slooooooow and steady ;-)

04/28 184.0 lbs no surprise there. Had friends over last night and had pizza, so I’m ok with a little gain. Back on track today, the gain should be gone by Tuesday hopefully!

04/29 182.6 lbs I’m a little confused. I only did half well yesterday, so I’m wondering where this loss comes from, but I’ll take it anyway 😜

04/30 183.8 lbs - I don’t get it! I was doing so well yesterday, stayed within my calorie limit, had loads of veggies and water, not much sodium. What’s going on? Could this be hormonal?

05/01 183.1 lbs - getting a little frustrated here. Only one day this challenge that I wasn’t in the deficit and I’ve been more than good the last two days, but not much change 😕 Hoping for a better result tomorrow morning for the end of the challenge! Also, I will try to focus on the fact that I will most probably have reached my challenge goal! 😃👍

05/02 182.9 lbs grrrrr! I was almost 500 calories below my deficit yesterday and had hoped for a better result. Oh well, I guess I’ll just be happy I surpassed my goal for this challenge and be happy about sticking to it (mostly!).

04/23 13,11 Reasonable day, good for exercise
04/24 13,12 Lazy day, not great on the food front, too much snacking (my usual downfall)
04/25 13,11 Hard workout at dojo, busy day so food kept under control
04/26 13,10 Nice to see the scales move. Rest day today so need to keep food under control
04/27 13,10 Half way through - even 10 days seems a challenge to me. Busy day with lots of exercise planned - but heading out to see Endgame with family so need to resist snacking at/after cinema
04/28 13,10 Quiet day today, resting after yesterday's mammoth workout. Unfortunately I always seem to be much hungrier the day after rather than on the day. Pondering using some of yesterday's 'spare' calories today
04/29 13,12 Grrr. I didn't kick the scales - I wanted to though. Yes, I know it's just fluctuation, but really??? I really need to make sure this doesn't distract me today. Whistles 'just keep moving forward'
04/30 13,10 Managed not to freak out totally yesterday. Reasonable workout today - have a shoulder strain from Saturday so slightly less energy than usual but better than not going.
05/01 13,9 Tired this morning so need to try and keep motivation up

Day/Weight/Comment
04/23 - 202.4 - down a little, food ok, exercise very good.
04/24 - 202.4 - food ok, couldn't fit much exercise in.
04/25 - 201.8 - an ok day yesterday. Not my best but ok.
04/26 - 202.6 - food very bad but exercise was very good.
04/27 - 204.8 - ate out again. Too much food. And no exercise again.
04/28 - 204.8 - ate out again. Way too much food. Went for a 6km run/walk.
04/29 - 203.2 - food ok, but a bit too much of it. Good brisk 7km walk, so that helped!
04/30 - 203.2 - food not great yesterday as I was away. Also no chance to exercise. Hoping next 2 days will bring me back to my start weight at least, though a little loss would be welcome.
05/01 - 202.6 - food and exercise good yesterday. Could do better with the water.
05/02 - 201.8 - happy to finish on a loss. Food very good yesterday. Exercise poor.

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.......

04/27 - 143.6lb (-1.4lb)
04/28 - 142.5lb (1.1lb) - Happy days - had a lovely walk on Friday and did 12k steps and really been watching every morsel that passes my lips. Family roast dinner tonight but all within calories so even if the scales show a blip tomorrow I wont be worried and know it is carbs / water! Moving on down and feeling motivated! Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone

04/29 - 143.1lb (+0.6lb) as expected but not worried. Target for the round is 142.50 which I weighed in as yesterday so no reason I shouldn't get back there by the end of the round. Walk planned for tonight so will easily get my 10k steps in today, food all planned and prepped - ready to see the scale drop tomorrow

04/30 - 142.6lb (-0.5lb) Yay! 0.1lb to go to my round target and 2 weigh ins left. Did 14k steps yesterday as well so happy with that. Food planned and prepped for the day and gym tonight for an hour - so all good

05/01 - 142.1lb (-0.5lb) Excited!!!! Managed 8k steps plus an hour at the gym last night as well.
So pleased with progress this round - really feeling that I am "in the zone" - becoming a bit obsessed with planning and logging! Should easily hit my target tomorrow for the end of the round unless today goes really badly but everything planned and prepped so no reason to! Will try to get a walk in today of some sort but Wednesdays are so manic it is really hard to find the time. Actually looking forward to getting on the scale tomorrow morning - is that normal : ?

Here's to a good May for everyone!

05/02 - 141.6lb (-0.5lb) Yay! Managed to get a walk in and get my 10k steps in even though I did have to march up and down on the spot to get the last 250 in last night before bed!!!

Overall loss this round of 2.6lb even with the initial rise of 2lb from being away so really lost 4.7lb taking that into account. Feeling focused and aiming to take it into Round 76.
See you there
