Day/Weight/Comment

6/2 - 159
We had a good time at Arab Fest yesterday - great food, and I ate what I wanted, but other than breakfast that was it for the day - falafel, hummus, pita, stuffed grape leaves, beautiful saffron rice, za’atar chips, baklava. Yum! I also had a lovely henna design put on my hand (see pic - sorry it’s so big) and enjoyed talking to the artist, an Afghan teacher now living in Indianapolis. Another calorie challenge coming up today with our UU picnic pitch-in, but I’ll try to behave. I have lots of walking plans for the week! Have a lovely Sunday, all!

6/3 - 161
OK, yuch but not unexpected after a weekend of indulgences. Some is water - I feel a little bloated and know I ate more salt than normal. I'm still aiming for my goal by the end of the round. It's a gorgeous day so I'm planning at least one long walk, plus garden work. Enjoy!

6/4 - 160.2
We went to Fazzoli's for lunch yesterday - not my choice - but other than indulging in a bread stick, I kept calories within bounds, and definitely within for the rest of the day. DH can eat pasta 'til the cows come home and never gain an ounce - no fair! It's raining now, but supposed to clear up, so I'm looking forward to a long walk later. If not, I'll hit the Y.

6/5 - 159.8
My calories were a little over my goal yesterday, but I worked several hours in the garden and dug out under the gait and laid pavers, so that burned a few. The forecast is for scattered T-storms all day, but I'll try to squeeze a walk in. We have a couple of guys coming tomorrow to dig out my new big flower beds -- can't wait to get started planting those! Happy hump day, all!

6/6 - 159.8
Anyone else sick of cloudy days? At least it's warm, and rain is sporadic. I'd just like a little sunshine. Oh well!

6/7 - 159.2
It’s a beautiful morning here. The guys didn’t start my garden beds yesterday but should be here this mornin* with shovels, edger, soil, and tiller. Yay! I think I need to go buy more plants! I won’t get to do much gardening tonight - potluck - but maybe a little this afternoon? Or tomorrow. Soon! Have a great weekend, all!

SW: 210
CW: 209.6
GW: 130
This round my goal is to reach 205!

6/2 – DNW - Sundays are my active rest days! Went for a walk to the coffee shop in the morning and walked home from there. Ended the day with 14,809 steps!
6/3 – DNW - SAC test at my gym, finished the challenge in 19 minutes, 4 minutes longer than allowed but proud of myself for finishing! Next test is start of July, hoping to beat my current time! 15,222 steps
6/4 – DNW - Push, Pull day at the gym. 14,119 steps
6/5 – DNW - 45 minutes of burpees at the gym (DEAD) had tacos and ice cream with my family after. 15,349 steps
6/6 – 209.6 - 1 week back at exercise and tracking diligently every day. Disappointed to see the number move down only slightly. Tomorrow is my official weigh in day. 16,133 steps
6/7 –209.4 - still a little upset that I didn't even lose 1lb my first week. Trying not to let it slow me down, still got up and walked before work this morning and have gym plans tonight! Did partake in National donut day this morning but not going to let that throw off my whole day!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/02 – 244.6 lbs. – recouping from celebrating over the weekend. I laid around most of the day with my legs elevated.

06/03 – 243.9 lbs. – (Down Down Down) The plan for today is C25K Week 6 Day 2. I brought my lunch and I will make sure I get 6 cups of water in today. Then, I will complete 25 Burpees, 45 Squats, 45 Crunches and 35 Plank Jacks.

06/04 – 242.3 lbs. – (YAAASSS! New LOW!) And the celebration calories have been officially worked/burned off. I plan to do a long walk today. Then, I’m thinking about doing the Brittne Babe workout. I believe I have her volume 7. For lunch, I’m having a salad with chicken. Keep up the great work everyone.

06/05 – 242.6 lbs. – Ok well, I’m extremely sore today. So, I’m going to blame it on that. I need to make sure I get my water intake in today. Today is C25K W6 D3 (22 min jog). I can do it. I didn’t bring lunch so, I’ll have to find a good salad.

06/06 – 241.0 lbs. – (YES, YES,YES) It rained yesterday, but I still managed to do that 22 minute run for the C25K program. Today, I’m thinking about doing my Brittne Babe workout since it’s supposed to rain/storm this afternoon.

06/07 – 243.6 – Welp, there’s that chicken and waffles. I’ll do better. C25K W7 D1 today if the rain slacks up before 10pm. Probably a salad for lunch since I haven’t had it the past two days I was supposed to or a sub. I didn't enjoy the Brittne Babe Wol. 7 workout as much as I thought. So I'm going back to what I have been doing for the last month.

@StatChicBayes Carbs do make me retain some water and any exercise that puts stress on your muscles will cause water retention for muscle repair. If I eat more carbs than I should, I try to counteract that by drinking more water.

quiltingjaine

@Jaimeroo11 Log what you are eating and if you have a strange gain or loss, look back 2-3 days to explain it. I have found that it can take that long for food choices to show on the scale. And welcome to the group!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2: 193.4 (A slight gain which is expected on the weekend. I had a graduation party I went to last night so I ate a controlled amount that I preplanned. No workout yesterday as well. I really want to make my goal this round so I can get a gym membership!)

6/3: 192.8 (I had a very tough time during my 5K training last night. Part of my running is uphill since the areas around my house are very hilly and around my entire town. 3 of the minutes I am panting for breath but getting more and more used to it. I still was able to do 6 minutes of continuous jogging which is a very huge success. Last night I made potato corn chowder for dinner.)

6/4: 191.2 (It's on the way down! I am at my last Friday weigh in and I'm hoping to finally see the 190's tomorrow? Maybe? Crossing my fingers! I made poblano chicken with rice last night and I did a 30 minute TurboFire workout.)

6/5: 190.4 (Finally the 190's!!! I've been waiting for like a month for this and now it's here and I was so close to making my goal! I did a 5K training workout yesterday. The plan I have has me doing a recovery week so I had to run 3 minutes instead of 6 yesterday, which was super easy. I made chicken noodle soup and garlic bread last night. Yum!)

6/6: 189.4 (I am in the 180's! New decade and I can now get a gym membership as my reward! I am going to a LA Fitness by my house to sign-up tomorrow and I can't wait to finally get some classes in! I'm so happy I stuck with it after having a tough month with hardly any new lows. Last night I did a 55 minute TurboFire workout and ate some pork chops with potatoes. Now onto my next goal )

6/7: 189.0 (Another drop in weight I was not expecting since I'm SUPER sore from my TurboFire workout 2 days ago and my very difficult uphill 6 minute jog with a 24 minute walk. I'm hurting all over! I had pizza for dinner last night and some popcorn. My hubby and I were catching up on a show last night and it's almost Friday, so why not! I lost a total of 30.2 pounds today and that is a huge accomplishment for me!)

@eb8566 I couldn’t get on the message board on the app either. Not sure what the problem was but it seems to have passed. I kept getting a screen that said it couldn’t connect to the server but since I was connecting everywhere else, I just waited it out.

The fact that I had forgotten about the glitch explains why I had over 150 posts to read and why some of my comments are tardy! 🤪🤪🤪

6/2 169.6 Very happy to see this. Didn’t walk yesterday but worked in the yard for two hours. More dang branches. It's supposed that to be beautiful. My goal is more yard work and maybe a walk.

6/3 169.2 Did a little yard work and walked for three very slow but lovely miles. Kept my calories in check and drank a lot of water. I'm working from home today and will get in a little yard work this morning. Walking will be determined by when the rain starts.

6/4 170.1 Not too worried about this. I knew I wasn't completely done with the 17Xs but I hope to be by the end of this round. This was the plateau from hell. I was 17X for approximately 160 days. The same weight I stalled at when I lost weight before. My body apparently really likes to weigh 17X. It's over now and I can move on. I worked in my yard for 4 hours yesterday. Then an old friend came over and we went to a nice dinner. I was fairly good in that I had no dessert and I had a salad for dinner but this place has the best nachos I've ever had in my life. I have posted the pic so you understand. They are pot roast nachos and they are heaven. I only had one chip but my estimation is over 500 calories for it. I ate back 4 hours of work plus an extra 81 calories.

6/5 170.1 Getting less ok with the 170 anything. I was good on calories, walked 2 miles, and drank a ton of water. Why is it the same? Maybe leftover sodium from Monday's dinner?

6/6 170.0 Only walked a mile, I waited until 9:00 pm but it was still too hot. I stayed under on calories but yesterday was very stressful. My friend who is in the hospital had a set-back and it struck me hard because I feel if I was with him he'd be doing better but I can't be in Colorado. I have to work and my job is in Kansas City, it isn't a job I can do remotely for more than a day or two. My outlet for stress has been going to a remote trail and walking for an hour. The heat has stolen that pleasure at least for now, so I was being pouty about having to go to the gym. First world problems - I will take my junky butt to the gym tonight and stop feeling sorry for myself. I can't control what I can't control. I am not actually responsible for everyone I know.

6/7 169.3 That's more like it. I walked 3 miles at an indoor track last night. It worked out just fine. I actually put on sunscreen and started to get on the trail but when I got out of the car I decided fighting the heat wasn't worth it. Happy Friday !!!

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. Maxwell

My 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)

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

6/1 124.5

6/2 125.0 No movement yesterday and not nearly enough water because I never left the house!
6/3 124.5 Yesterday champagne brunch at 1pm. OMAD Finally warm enough to go to water fitness today! Yay!! Then gym this afternoon with Amy.
6/4 123.5 I went to water “aerobics” and mentioned later to DH that I thought it was not properly named as my average heart rate was 95. Somewhat disappointed to see that that 45 minutes plus walking to and from the pool counted for NO active minutes! Glad I met Amy at the gym in the afternoon even though it was short. My right leg is bothering me again a little. Again OMAD, sunflower seeds in the evening.
6/5 124.0
6/6 124.5 My allergies are getting me down. Had migraine-ish headache yesterday afternoon so skipped the gym. I’m not sleeping well and just feel yuck. I can’t get on the Community boards. I get a message that I can’t connect to the server. It let me log my weight on the graph. It’s not my phone since I haven’t had a problem with any other apps or websites. I’ll try again later.
6/7 124.0 I wish I could sleep at night!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2--207.0 It was actually weird this morning to get up and not go to the gym, I usually go today and workout on my own but since my hip is hurt my my trainer does not want me to work out by myself...I can't wait to go to PT on Tuesday and hopefully get some answers. I did go out for a short walk this morning and will go out again today, but I still need to be careful. Going to work at getting water in today.
6/3--206.7 Don't know if this weight will stick. Didn't drink much water today, I'm just hoping to hold steady with my weight until I figure out what is going on with my hip.
6/4--206.7
6/5--206.5 Went to PT yesterday. The PT said that my hip is not going to get any worse and a lot of the pain I am feeling is because I am hypersensitive to the injury since this is my first injury ever. I worked out with my trainer and included the PT exercises and my hip is feeling better already. But most importantly the worry that there's something more to my hip pain and that I may not be able to ever run/hike/bike again is now gone.
6/6--205.9 Was stressed yesterday and did some evening snacking. First time in awhile that I've done that much snacking, luckily there isn't that much snack food in the house so it could have been worse. I've been doing the PT exercises and so far so good...trainer tonight.
6/7--207.0 Not surprised about the bump up since I've been eating closer to maintenance the last couple of days. Going out for lunch today and then out to happy hour later...working to get my water in today.

@amn0619 Doesn’t it seem the blood donation place would have healthier post donation snacks?? Just sayin’

you would think! But I think they keep sugary stuff on site in case anyone feels faint. There was a man next to me who got very lightheaded and they brought him juice and cookies. I decided to enjoy my pack of nutter butters, figuring I could splurge since I just got rid of a pint of liquid

June Goal - Under 140


Goals

Walk 4 days a week on my lunch break
Get to 6 push ups (not girlie ones)
Plank daily for 4 min
Remember why I am doing this!


2-Jun... 145.8 - stayed within calorie bounds, family emergency - not much exercise
3-Jun... 146.6 - stayed under 1200, got in a good brisk 2.75 mile walk at lunch
- planked 2 min and 4 push ups
4-Jun... 145.0 - stayed under 1300, but did have tacos & chips & guac! Got in a good quick 2.5 mile walk at lunch, my arms/shoulders are so sore from yesterday. No pushups or planks.
5-Jun... 146.2 - I feel a bit bloated this morning and going to focus on drinking lots of water today. Working thru lunch so no walk. Crazy busy day, took 3 horses to a barrel race in the evening so I skipped dinner. No walk at lunch but total calories for the day were 632.
6-Jun... 145.4 - Holy Moly - I think I ate as much today as I generally do in 2 days - calories hit 2400. We had company for dinner and it was insanely good. Tomorrow I'll be back on track.
7-Jun... 145.8 - I swear I felt like I gained 5 lbs after dinner last night, so I was relieved to still be at 145 this morning. Lots of water, walk at lunch and staying under 1200 calories today. Let the wknd detox begin!

06/05 …..195.2 ….. This was a very bad day for me. So busy & all grab & go. I guesstimated over 2000 calories in & over 125 Net Carbs so the gain makes sense. Other stats: 2718 Calories Out. 14,511 Total Steps & 6.14 Miles. IF: 18:6 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 7 minutes. I danced 25 minutes in my small space of boxes.

06/06 …..194.7 ….. My DGS’ graduation went beautifully. I took him & all the family out of town for his choice, DQ Dairy Queen for dinner. I ate the bun, grazed the fries, skipped the soda, ate the mini sundae. Last night I made keto friendly jalapeno poppers & stayed within plan. Even with DQ my weight dropped – go figure! Sticking to plan today & I hope to get in more movement. Lots of sitting yesterday with the graduation, the travel etc. Yesterdays stats: 1692 Calories In / 2303 Calories Out. 71 Net Carbs. 10,531 Total Steps & 4.41 Total Miles. IF 16:8. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 12 minutes & woke up refreshed. I did 18 minutes on my brother’s elliptical. I appreciate the nice ½ pound drop & will use it as incentive today.

06/07 …..194.7 ….. I think I may be holding water. Not drinking enough & shedding very little which is unusual for a diabetic. Weight holding steady without even a tiny drop. I will work on water today. Yesterday’s stats: 1616 Calories In / 2341 Calories Out. 10,486 Total Steps & 4.44 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & 6 hours & 9 minutes & woke up refreshed. No planned exercise yesterday but lots of general labor here at the motel & cabins. Have a great weekend everyone!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/2 148, traveling yesterday in a car so ate within calories. but ate McDonald’s for lunch and pizza for dinner so salt was more than usual. I tweaked my neck sleeping so hopefully will feel better in the afternoon to go workout
6/3 147.5, today will be busy, but everything is prepped so should be a good day
6/4 147.6, going to mini golf after work with some colleagues. I managed to get a strength and conditioning class and 60 minutes on elliptical so hoping to be closer to my end weight of round 78 by the end of the week.
6/5 147.2, managed to be good with diet until dinner last night. Going to the opera tonight and having dinner nearby (already picked out what I’m eating). Not as sore as I usually am after a strength class so probably can fit in a 60 minute elliptical machine workout
6/6 146.5, hoping to stay as good on my diet and exercise plan through the weekend. Finally back to where I was at the end of round 78 (although I think that weight was an outlier since my moving average line is still going down at 147)
6/7 146, some days I get discouraged with how slow the weight loss process is and I feel like the number on the scale doesn’t reflect how hard I’m working. This particular challenge is good for helping through those days because I’m inspired by so many others who are trying to do the same thing I am- be healthier and stronger
