Previous day's comments for R80

06/12 - I forgot... I think I'm still half asleep, honestly (: I won't get to weigh in for the next handful of days (MAYBE Monday) so hopefully I can keep myself in check. Feeling fat and bloated today but going to keep going strong and know its just one day.
06/13 - At boyfriends. We stayed up until about midnight talking because he was waiting for meds to kick in (played softball and he's injured like me so real sore. Plus got bruised ribs from a collision). We discussed weight. He's on board with helping me find and keeping me accountable for more workouts. The gym at work has a rowing machine which I can do with my injuries with little to no impact (other than epic soreness) so I think on days I'm not rushed to get to baseball games in time, I'll either go during lunch or after work. I think he also is okay with me cutting down portions or making something slightly different to eat to help me out nutritionally. Wins! I feel so much more confident that I can break this plateau of 155-ish with his support (I hovered at 155 for 2 years after my surgery so I think its a happy place for my body since I can't work out like I used to) but I know I've been down to 145 and I still have some to lose at that weight so maybe, just maybe, I can hit 140 or below with his help. Plus, when he has the kids, I get out and be active with them as much as I can.

Round 9 already? This is the most consistent I've ever been with checking-in and I love seeing my weight loss trends and seeing everyone's successes and insights as they figure out their own. 💙

This round will take me to summer vacation and I AM READY! I'll be tracking at least 10,000 steps a day, going to the gym and working out at home more, and aiming for at least 45 oz of water a day. I would like to see two pounds less on the scale by the end of the challenge.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 180.4 lb I tracked 14,096 steps, had 40 oz of water, and burned 300 calories on the elliptical at the gym. I baked some oatmeal chocolate chip cookies last night and froze half of the batch so there wouldn't be as many cookies lingering around the kitchen. My fiance had three, which means he really liked them. He's a quiet guy and can be unenthusiastic about food, so when he goes back for seconds, that's when I know he's liked whatever I've prepared. I'm planning on working out at home this afternoon and I'll either be playing pub trivia with my family or watching the Stanley Cup Final if they choose to cancel trivia night.
06/13 179.2 lb 11,101 steps were tracked, I had 40 oz of water, and did a workout at home. It's nice to see a drop after five days of being the same weight. I don't think the weather will allow me to give the dog a substantial walk, but I'll be going to the gym after work today. I'm cooking taco empanadas for dinner and I picked up a new board game called Azul that I'm hoping to try out tonight with the fiance.
06/14 180.4 lb I lost my Fitbit! I hopeful it's sitting in the couch or stuck in my bed, but when I went to check my steps this morning, I noticed my wristband was empty! I know I at least got 10,000 steps because it did its buzzy dance to alert me yesterday. Oh well. I burned 300 calories at the gym, drank 42 oz of water, and limited myself to one drink during our board game. I'll be working out at home this evening and I'm pretty sure we're ordering in pizza for dinner. I'm anticipating a gain this weekend with my TOM on the horizon and Father's Day this Sunday, so I'll keep on top of my water consumption and make sure the dog is getting long walks to help ease the damage.
06/15 184.0 lb I found my Fitbit! It was under a cushion on my couch. Today's weigh-in is a result of drinks at the bar with colleagues after an irritating staff meeting followed by pizza and buffalo wings for dinner. I think I'll be taking my dog to the dog park today and maybe do some yardwork. The weather's too nice to be stuck inside all day!
06/16 DNW Crazy drama-filled day caused by my brother. I'm considering it a day of maintenance and I'm moving forward tomorrow.
06/17 182.4 lb Work up feeling thirsty so I started the day with a water bottle and I will be refilling it after posting. TOM started yesterday and I only tracked 6,338 steps due to having to drive to my brother's apartment to check in on him. He's fine, I'm fine, and I'm moving forward today. I have a light lunch with me at school, I'll be working out at home this afternoon, and then I have rehearsal from 7-9 tonight. I did get to take the dog to the dog park on Saturday and she LOVED it. It's forty minutes away from my house, so it can't be an everyday thing, but I might try to do it twice a month during the summer. It has a nice walking track around the perimeter so I can get my steps in while keeping an eye on her.

nikki062181

@nikki062181 I am back! It has been a long time since I have done this challenge. I was 17lbs from my goal weight and have since gained 17 additional pounds. The truth?! Life got in the way. I'm constantly busy and just started eating out more and exercising less. Time to reel it back in.

GOALS FOR THE WEEK!

First step: Track calories
Second step: Measure my portions
Third step: Cut out carbonated beverages
Fourth step: Cut out too many sweets
5th step: Push water!!!!

OSW: 232 lbs
CSW: 159 lbs
CGW: 155 - 156 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs

Here is to wishing I can get down to 153 - 155 in these 10 days. 🙏

6/12: 159 Did not drink enough and was way under my calorie intake.
6/13: 157 Did not drink enough and was way under my calorie intake (been battling with altitude sickness)
6/14: 154.8 😮 Met my calorie goal but my macros were off. I ate too many carbs due to having chicken pizza for dinner. I did consume 34 ounces of water, drank no carbonated beverages, and had no candy either
6/15: 154.6 I nailed my macros yesterday! 🥳 I pushed pushed myself and drank 51 ounces of water. 😯 I know I'll be living in the bathroom today. I'm going to continue to push water but am bumping it up to 3.5 bottles of water today so I can get in 60 ounces. I swept my entire house and did more laundry yesterday.
6/16 153.8 🥰 I'm getting there. I'm feeling like doing a little dance today! I only completed 2.5 bottles yesterday. I was short by 1 whole bottle. So, let us hope I will do better today. Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's and single Mom's out there!
6/17: 156.6 😭 I was right! I made healthy choices yesterday, but the sodium intake on that meal out killed me! I'm so sad. I will need to push the water today for sure. I'm also going to start on some some smoothies today and B12 supplements. 🤞

UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's.

Goal for round 80 - stay in the 130's. This round will be very challenging as my birthday falls in this one. Have two birthday outings planned this weekend, plus Father's Day and my actual birthday next Wednesday. Back in March I set a goal for 138 by my birthday. But that's pretty aggressive based on where I am today, so my goal will be to stay in the 130's this challenge. (I'm quite proud of my 10.5 lb loss in under 3 months so I'm not disappointed if I don't hit 138 by next Wednesday )

6/12 - 139.3. Nice to start with a drop. Wins yesterday: HIIT/tabata class, lots of water, 4.5 mile walk. The anxiety eating hit midday thanks to homework/final exam prep with my daughter, she's stressed so mom is stressed. Got that under control after a bit and a long walk while she had practice helped with a mind reset, and had a very light dinner to offset. Really need to focus on stress/anxiety management so I don't keep turning to food.

6/13 - 140.7. Up 1.4 lbs in a day?? I'm sad and stressed. Wins yesterday: bodycombat class, hydrated well, stayed in a deficit. Didn't get to walk because of rain. I wasn't the best with food but not as bad as I've been in recent days. Maybe it caught up to me? Maybe too much sodium? Maybe stress showing up? I don't know but I feel defeated after a couple of good days. I know it's normal to bounce around but it still stinks. Will work on drinking tons of water today in hopes that helps the sodium (if that's part of the issue).

6/14 139.3. And 1.4 gone in a day? So weird. But I’ll take it. Wins yesterday: RPM class and 3 mile walk. Hydrated well. Stayed within a deficit. Going out for a late dinner and drinks tonight so will do my best today to prep for that and hopefully not do too much damage on the scale tomorrow.

6/15 -140.9 whoa. Went out for an early birthday celebration. Ate dinner at 9pm and it was salty (Mexican food), and had a few cocktails. I don’t indulge like that often and now I see why! Yikes.

6/16 - 139.6. Coming back down. Wins yesterday: HIIT class, stayed under calorie goal. Drank a lot of water, trying to offset the dehydration from the day before. Not sure how much I’ll lose this round, we will see. Tired of this bouncing around and need to stop indulging so much!

6/17 - 140.2. Sigh. It seems I have a pattern of a day with 13x, a day with 14x. Wins yesterday: 3.5 mile run with my husband, and he pushes my pace so it was about 15 seconds per mile faster than I've been running lately. 2 mile walk. Food wasn't awful but not wonderful, spent the day at the pool with friends so it was a day of mostly snacking and not a full meal. Outside all day so didn't hydrate enough.

Day/Weight/Comment

06/12 - 159.8
I had a great day yesterday - calories & macros on target, a 5-mile walk, some gardening. Hoping for more of the same today.

06/13 - 159.4
Busy morning - we had 4 beautiful trees planted and some other yard work done, then went out for pho. I had a vegetarian bun tofu plus a spring roll, so not too badly off track.

06/14 - 160.4
Soduim from the Vietnamese lunch yesterday. OK, and a few extra calories later in the day. And not much exercise, as I was home for the tree delivery in the morning and it rained all afternoon. But it's bright and sunny today and I plan to take a nice long walk and do some gardening. Have a lovely weekend, all!

06/15 - 158.8
Busy all day yesterday - no time for silly eating. And I did eat responsibly at meals. Who's a good girl? ;-) I have some painting to do today -- boards for garden & watercolor pup portrait -- so that will keep me from mindless munching, too. If I can re-break that habit, I can continue to behave myself. Enjoy your Saturday!

06/16 - 158.2

06/17 - 158.4
Good weekend, although rainy. I'm hoping the landscaper will finish tilling topsoil into my new flower beds today so I can plant my (mostly) perennials. And, if the rain holds off, I'm aiming for a long walk. Have a lovely!

I enjoyed Father's Day with a small dessert. It feels really good to be thinking about what I'm eating instead of just eating whatever is in front of me with no regard. I'm guessing this weight loss is my body resetting to its more normal weight. I think once I get to 190, the weight loss will be more difficult. But I'm happy with the results so far!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/11 …..195.9 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

06/12 …..195.9 ….. 3 Travel days out of 10 this round. My food weakness is in traveling. UGG. I’m hoping to NOT go hog wild on these days and keep my nose in the trough a little too much! Yesterday was a good day again. Yesterday’s stats: 1369 Calories In / 2334 Calories Out. 29 Net Carbs. 10,030 Total Steps & 4.24 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 34 minutes. No change in the unexpected weight gain. Patience is truly a virtue. Welcome to all the newbies & good luck everyone on this round. Thanks to @GrandmaJackie for providing this lovely spot where lives are changing everyday!

06/13 …..195.7 ….. Travel starts today.

06/14 …..xxxxx ….. Travel no weigh. Reading posts. Will be home this evening.

06/15 …..198.6 ….. Mexican & Chinese in the two days of travel. Now.... to undo the damage. Okay, so today I have reacquainted myself this morning with the process of fat adaption. I have read a few articles to refresh my (often brain-fogged) memory and I am ready to go! Here are the articles I’ve read this morning. Page 1: https://perfectketo.com/fat-adapted/ and Page 2 which is a link within page 1 https://perfectketo.com/what-is-the-ketogenic-diet/. There is certainly a lot more out there but all I have time for this morning. Youtube will be my best friend later tonight and I think I will rewatch the long video of butter bob “Butter makes your pants fall off” which I remember as being the greatest motivator for me when I first started my journey to better T2D numbers, weight loss & overall health. Thanks @quiltingjaine for the firm but caring push in the right direction. Yesterdays stats on my fitbit showed 13,785 Steps (mostly shopping with fitbit on my shoe). 5.83 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit step hours achieved while stopping during travel . I slept 6 hours & 17 minutes last night which is a lot for me. Probably carb overload & crash. My calorie & carb count for yesterday was way way too high I’m sure. I wish I would have skipped the rice, that would have helped. Today is a new day. I am beginning my fat adaption process & am looking forward to it like you wouldn’t believe. I have missed my prepped meals from home the last two days. More movement & more water is also on the horizon.


06/16 …..198.1 ….. Better. Not enough water but I did drink some parsley tea to offset the bloat. Spring cleaning Unit #3 today which will keep me in lots of walking & on my feet. I also have a couple of cabins to clean after check-outs. Probably no planned dancing or exercise today, but lots of physical activity & work. Yesterdays stats: 1358 Calories In / 2317 Calories Out. 19 Net Carbs. 10,437 Total Steps & 4.42 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 4 hours & 22 minutes & woke up refreshed. Today will be day #2 on my fat adaption plan. Additional travel this week unexpected for emergency furniture shopping. I plan on eating breakfast food when dining out. I am going to stay strong! Fat adaption can take anywhere from days to weeks. Since I was adapted before, I think my body will remember & get there sooner than later. Have a great Sunday everyone!

06/17 …..198.4 ….. Travel today & tomorrow. I blew it last night on a binge knowing the travel was coming & my plans would unravel. I am going to try hard today to be reasonable in my choices but I need to get the next two travel days behind me in order to be successful in my fat adaption plan. It is easier to do it when I’m not on the road. Who starts a diet on Thanksgiving morning, right? Yesterday’s stats: 2282 Calories In / 2825 Calories Out. 119 Net Carbs in goodies/sweets & my Keto Egg Roll in a bowl dinner. 15,514 Total Steps & 6.56 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept 5 hours & 34 minutes. Lots of movement with the spring cleaning work but not enough water. I know I badly need the fat adaption when I crave the sweets like I am. When adapted, my cravings and my hunger are so much more under control, and even goes away . It is so prevalent that I will absolutely know when I am adapted. I will be mindful the next two days as much as I can, but I look forward to being at home for a stretch and climbing back on my wagon.

Round 78 +.4 pounds 327.4-327.8
Round 79 -2.8 pounds 327.8-325.0

OSW 382
RSW 325.0

06/12 324.6 I’m hopeful that the downward trend continues.

06/13 324.4 Still going down and it flashed 323.8 for a second, so maybe it’s telling me that tomorrow will bring another new low. I’m hopeful of seeing a 60 pound loss this round or early next.

06/14 325.2 I’m trying not to be very frustrated. I know that this is inflammation/water weight because my back and leg are hurting a lot today.

06/15 326.2 I’m not surprised as I know it’s from sodium and not from over eating. I’m beginning to feel like a broken record though. I’m trying to focus on how much I’ve lost so far and how much more that I’ve been doing. My nsv is that I’m starting to hit a consistent 3000 steps a day and I’m able to take my dog on short walks several times a day.

06/16 325.2 That’s the right direction and hopefully the first of several drops. With all the aches I had when I got up I had prepared myself for a gain. I got in an early walk and I hope that the weather will be good enough for one or two more.

06/17 323.4 I cannot say how happy I was to see a new low. Hopefully I’m done with the bouncing around and I’ll keep seeing loses. My nsv yesterday was 6k steps. That’s double my goal and 12x the steps I was getting back when I started this journey.

6/12 NS Still on the road until tomorrow night. I walked at lunch yesterday and after work. Ended up with 5.44 miles. I really wish I would have gone the other .06 miles to land at 5.5 but too late now. Found two excellent restaurants yesterday. Stayed under on calories but of course, being on the road over on sodium. Going to the gym tonight for weights. Driving home tomorrow, I don't think I'll stop to walk. I have walked for 7 days in a row. Time for a break. I'm fighting so hard to get into the 160s. I'll do it this round and I hope for the rest of my life.

6/13 NS Driving home today. I was good calorie wise yesterday, went to the gym last night then came back to the hotel and crashed by 10:00 pm. It's a beautiful day so I know I wasn't going to walk but I might stop for a short maybe a thirty-minute walk. It's super sunny but chilly for June, the best walking weather. I think I'll not walk tomorrow. I'll be spending the day working and with the BF with no time for walking. I already packed my walking shoes but the more I think about it and share with you guys I'm going to stop. Today will be a better day to walk than tomorrow.

6/14 169.4 I have tried posting this several times and it hasn't been working. I'm happy with this number after not seeing a scale for 3 days. I'm down .9 pounds since the last time I weighed (I think that weight was high and this one is "right"). Below is a pic from yesterday's short walk. Happy Friday. It let me post but didn't let me add the pic. It said, "You are not allowed to upload files in this category". Weird, I've posted pics before.

6/15 169.5 No biggie. Father's Day Celebration #1 lunch today. It should be easy, it's at a restaurant where I know I have options. After lunch, a graduation party for a friend's son - this could be dangerous. Snacky food can be my nemesis. We'll see. No time to walk today or tomorrow. Father's Day weekend is a long and stressful one for me.

6/16 171.1 Spicy Almonds is all I can really say. Lunch with my Dad is an unknown. Usually, we go to one of the two restaurants in my small home town he likes, neither has good options. No time to walk today, unless I can leave Dad's at a decent time.

6/17 171.1 Stupid water retention. I didn't eat two pounds worth of almonds on Saturday, this is not actual weight. I did not leave my Dad's until after 8:00 then I had an hour drive home. No walking 3 days in a row. I'm getting itchy, I need to hit the dusty trail. Well not so dusty in the rainy spring but you get the idea. I'll be drinking about 2 gallons of water to get rid of the sodium and excess weight.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 - 139.6 lbs: no scale movement from yesterday. That's ok, the scale moved a lot last week and I knew it wouldn't last. Yesterday I ate pretty well, way too many eggs though and I'm switching out the Gatorade for Pedialite from now on (only used when I work out in the sun for a couple hours). Also took my measurements yesterday. Figured I'd track the inches since the scale isn't always kind.

06/13 - 138.8 lbs

06/14 - 138.6 lbs: played 6 hours of pickleball yesterday and was totally exhausted but not really hungry after all that time in the sun. Only slept 4 hours, not for lack of trying, and thought the scale would go up because of it. Might need a nap today.

06/15 - 139.2 lbs: there's the gain I expected from lack of sleep the night before. I really need my 8 hrs of sleep, can barely function without it. Today was a solid 3 hours of pickleball play in the sun and a salad for lunch (plus a rewarding hard cider). Planning a protein smoothie for dinner and a good long sleep tonight. Looking forward to the scale going back down tomorrow.

06/16 - 140.4 lbs: barely ate yesterday and worked out a ton. Not sure why the scale went up except TOM "might" be around the corner. It's not a sure thing anymore but I do have a pimple on my chin - a sure sign...

06/17 - 140.2 lbs: glad to see this is moving in the right direction. Played another 3 hours in the sun yesterday and tried to make good food choices but it was Father's Day and we had a few splurges - eggplant parmesan, yum! That's ok, back on track this morning.

Day-Weight-Comment
06/12--207.2 Had a great day yesterday... felt in control with my eating. PT today.
06/13--207.4 Went to PT yesterday and he gave me the ok to do my normal weightlifting!!! I haven't talked to him about running, but when I go see him tomorrow I will ask.
06/14--206.3 The loss today is a reflection of me getting my head back in the game. Last round I wasn't as focused and the scale showed a temporary increase, but now that I'm more in control of my eating and I'm back to exercising more the water weight is almost gone and I'm heading back in the right direction. PT today and working out.
06/15--206.1 PT gave me the go ahead to do all my normal weightlifting and to start running...I am so excited!!! I am supposed to start slow, running 1 mile at a time for the first week, but I am glad to be able to run again after almost 1 month of no running. Right after PT I went to the gym and did my weightlifting and it felt great. I may go out for a run today, but I will see how my hip feels after yesterday's workout. Going to work on getting my water in today.
06/16--206.1 Hip felt sore when I woke up yesterday so I didn't run yesterday and just took it easy. Success yesterday was getting my water in and limiting my snacking. Went out for a long walk with the dog this morning and then going to the hairdresser later this morning.
06/17--205. I had a late lunch and I wasn't hungry when my husband made dinner. So instead of just eating dinner because it was there I didn't eat it. Instead I had a couple of snacks throughout the evening, including a whole pint of strawberries, and only snacked when I was hungry. I didn't get enough water in yesterday, so working on water today.
