JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 91

wellnfree

Round 91 – Sept. 30 to Oct. 9
Female, 5’, 66 years. Goals – finish calorie log each day, only yogurt or fruit in the evening and nothing after 9 p.m. SW – 162.4, GW – 160.8, UGW – 140. (This really should be 125 or 130 but that seems like such a long ways to go and 140 would be a huge improvement.)
Saw 161.8 a couple of times last round, then self-sabotaged and ended up at 162.4. This round ends with company arriving – daughter and son-in-law and 7 kids for 3 or 4 days. So lots and cooking and prep during this round.
Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 – 162.4 – This may blip higher as yesterday finished off a chocolate bar and had generous serving of ice cream. Back on the wagon though and tracking carefully today.
10/01 – 161.8 – LNS but only a couple of graham crackers. Not a lot of exercise as had a busy day with late evening out.
10/02 – 162.4 – Another evening class – fun class, but always a temptation to cave to LNS and doing something mindless when I come home. When I think about it, evenings are really what sabotage me. My daytime eating is always good until dessert at supper or LNS does me in.

Did really well in the last round. Hoping to finally hit a new decade this round. I am so close to my ultimate goal, but it seems so far away at the same time. I have to be so careful with everything to be able to lose at this point, so I am going to work really hard. My goal is to hit 139 at least a couple of times this round and continue to bring my 10 day avg down at least another pound.


Round 86: 139.6 - 148.2 up 8.6 Avg 144.08
Round 87: 148.2 - 143.6 down 4.6 Avg 143.73
Round 88: 143.6 - 147.0 up 3.4 Avg 145.84
Round 89: 147.0 - 143.7 down 3.3 Avg 144.99
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 down 2.8 Avg 142.68

9/30 - 145.9 not off to a great start. We drank a lot yesterday and did a lot of snacking on foods that I normally wouldn't eat. Tons of carbs/sodium and beer were consumed all day. Tailgating and watching the Cowboys game with the hubby made for a great Sunday though. Now to get back on track and get somewhere this round. I am getting to old to party like we used to, I feel terrible today and I am just hoping to get my water in. I have a feeling it will an early night for me.

10/1 - 146.5 I have no idea what's going on. I had a medication change that started Saturday, so maybe I am holding onto some water or something or maybe this is the rest of my Sunday's bounce. I know I did splurge a little to much, but geez, I don't think 5.6 pounds worth by any means. I better not see it go up again tomorrow, it will eventually drop, I just have to be patient.

10/2 - 143.9 water weight is my enemy! Hopefully I will be back down tomorrow all the way. Was on track all day yesterday accept I did have a flour tortilla with dinner. Other than that excellent day and so far on track today.

09/30 195.6 (-.2)/ 28.7% (-.1%) had a rest day from the gym yesterday. Stayed within my calories. Probably didn’t eat the best but it wasn’t horrible.

10/01 195.8 (+.2)/ 28.8% (+.1%) I didn’t eat the best that’s for sure. But ready for a new day. Another night of playing soccer but not indulging in carb overload before.

10/02 195.0 (-.8) / 28.7% (-.1%) yesterday i again has zero motivation but at least it was the same motivation for food. Didn’t eat to bad. Played soccer last night. Had a late dinner but it wasn’t horrible.

Today was a sobering day. We had to attend the funeral of the wife of one of our friends. She went in for a double heart bypass, suffered a serious infection, and didn’t make it through.

Life is unpredictable! Enjoy it while you can.

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!

My highest weight was 197# at 5’4”. I’m 48 years old.
I was 189# when I first started keto (1/1/18), and had gotten down to 150# before I let life interrupt me.

Round 91 (my round 9)
9/30 - 154.5 - starting to settle into life with my oldest baby here. I’ve missed having time with her and she’s going through a stressful time, so we’re going to work it together. She has done keto in the past, and felt better, so I’m hoping she will do it with me now. Today we had a nice dinner out. Shared a plate at my FAVORITE Mexican place, and ate all the non-keto & enjoyed an “adult beverage”. Junk food is out now. We both have a lot to accomplish in the next 2 months before my lease ends!
10/1 (work) - 156.5 - popcorn at the movie 2 days ago & Mexican food last night. The bonding with my “baby” is worth any cost.
10/2 (work) - 155 - a gallon of water makes a difference!

STG: 115 (next milestone)

Goals for 10 day Challenge: lose 1.6 pounds (reach 118) (optimistic!).
Day/Weight/Comment

09/30 120.9 Up from 1.3 lbs from yesterday so not the best start - water retention from DOMS, salt (tortilla chips :-) from lunch yesterday, and BP medicine ran out over-weekend and forgot to pick up Rx Friday. Girl Power this morning and will hopefully burn off fat/water with cardio this evening at spin class!

010/01 120.1 Heading back down! Cardio day - cycle in am and then a circuit class in the evening. Ended up doing 80 push ups during the circuit class - hopefully won’t be too sore. Good recovery meal of homemade arugula pasta with smoked yellow tomato sauce, roasted garlic puree and arugula oil with oil cured black olives. Over on fat, but under total calories.

010/02 119.2 Continued down and back below end of round 90 and almost back to recent low. Will take more time as within 10 pounds of goal and a lot of these fluctuations are more likely water than fat/muscle loss. Girl Power this am (last class sad to say) and finished with our choice - I decided to focus on squats to work on form - up to 85 pounds @ 5 reps now on back squat and feel comfortable now working on my own. Improved max rep of pushups to 21 and reduced weight on machine assisted pull-up so definitely getting stronger (much better metric of progress than weight from scale!) continuing daughter’s veggie week theme so pasta again; cavatappi with smoked eggplant and red peppers with ground beyond beef and smoked mozzarella. Hopefully good recovery meal after heavy leg day (squats/cycle in evening)!

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 – 184.6 – Big post-weekend bounce, thanks to the yummy (and salty!) clam pizza my husband and I shared last night. I think I’m finally getting used to my body’s response to extra sodium, so I’m trying to take those temporary water gains in stride. To be honest, when DH suggested pizza, my first thought was about how the salt would affect Monday morning’s weigh-in. But I’m glad I said yes. We had a relaxing evening, and the water weight will be gone in a couple of days.
10/01 – 183.4 – Voila! Water gain from the pizza is gone, and I’m back to my Round 91 starting weight. Late meeting, but I didn’t want to do take-out again. Only managed a tiny walk (15 minutes) after work, but I made it home in time to roast a spaghetti squash and throw together a quick veggie chilli to top it. The leftovers will buy me some time for a longer walk later this week. Stayed under my calorie limit even with a LNS of a lemon bar and tea – “fuel” to help me power through tonight’s stack of student essays.
10/02 – 183.4 – Bonus beach day after my morning class – it was just too nice to sit inside grading journals. Walked for 2 ½ hours, most of it through the sand and surf. Met my daughter and her friend for (diet) root beer floats and still came in under my calorie limit. Banking the extra for the weekend.

@TerriRichardson112 I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s always shocking when our friends pass. One of mine passed almost 6 years ago from complications of the flu - she was only 50. It makes you stop and think when your contemporaries are leaving the earth. Prayers.

I worked at my daughter’s school for 7 hours doing teacher “busy work” making copies, cutting laminated pages, updating the math wall, labeling her personal classroom library with reading levels, etc. My body hurts! I came home to still sick husband and made Cole slaw and hotdogs for dinner. Nothing sounds good to him and I am wiped out! Finally caught up on posts so will post mine and say goodnight. Love you all and a
I’m always excited to see what/how everyone is doing!

NEVER GIVE UP! You can surprise yourself! I have.

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.

58yo Female, 141.5 lbs, 5'6
Final Goal: 132 lbs
Hoping to lose 0.5 lb a week

I started a new job in May, gained 10 lbs, quit exercising, and have been drinking to manage stress. I feel like crap. I'm hoping to get back to more healthy living. My plan is daily tracking 1400-1500 calories daily, Sober October, daily walks, and hopefully the gym.

09/30, 141.5, bought nutritious food, planning my meals so I don't get hungry and overeat. Threw out the wine, and am drinking fruit water instead.

10/01, 141.5, stayed within calorie limit, no booze. Ate that healthy food, and gawd was is boring. But it's just 10 days.

10/02 140.5, didn't overeat, and didn't drink. I struggled today, it was a long work day, then train was late, and it took so long to get home. I was exhausted, and just wanted a glass of wine and some easy takeout. A hard day has always been the perfect excuse. But I didn't want to give in after just three days, so I made chicken, kale salad and brown rice, yogurt for dessert. I'm glad I stuck it out. Now I'm taking some Tylenol and going to bed.

GOALS
Halfway GW: 140.4 (-17.4) <<achieved!>>
UGW: 126-128 REVISED 9/29 from 123
<<MAINTENANCE achieved!>>
SW this round: 126.4 lbs
GW this round: 126.4- 127.8 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30126.4 **I'm in maintenance?!** Is this real?! Yes, I now find myself here, having revised my original Ultimate Goal Weight upward from 123 because I feel (and look, I think?) good at around 127. My original UGW was based on what I could recall from before I gained weight, though I now recall that I was approaching a bit too skinny at 5'7" and 124. I'm very small boned, but my current weight feels comfortable, so I'm going with that. What now? Where's my diploma and graduation party? Ha.

Okay, the plan is to *continue* (1) Logging and weighing food (2) Monitoring calories and experimenting with a slightly higher range IF I gain consistently (3) Eating between 12-8 p.m. What got me to maintenance should keep me in maintenance, right? I will also *begin* (4) Gentle toning exercises. C'est tout!
10/01126.4 First, I'm proud to report that I started my toning yesterday by doing a few slooow squats every time I got up to go to the bathroom. Second, I realized that the insights gained over these months of highly introspective mini-journaling here in this group should be revisited in maintenance, or I risk losing them. So starting tomorrow, I'm going to start combing through my old rounds (all saved on my phone) for insights/still-relevant epiphanies. I know it'll help me stay focused, and hopefully, will help someone else. Reading everyone's posts sure helps me, anyway!
10/02 125 A retrospective from the end of my first round: (3/23/19, Round 71) "My final weigh-in for this round, and I'm down 2.4 from my starting weight! Yesterday I exercised but didn't eat super healthy other than a salad. However, I stayed within my calories and hit my macros better than usual, so the lesson for me is the "perfect" day doesn't exist, nor does it need to in order to make progress...For the first time in my life, I think I'm going to let patience and persistence win over impatience and defeat. This is going to happen slooowly, but it's going to happen!"

Take home: If you're struggling right now, remember that slow is okay! Patience is a HUGE part of getting where you want to go.

10/01: 235.6 - bloated and gross feeling. Haven't eaten the best in the last few days.

10/02: 236 - not been eating the greatest but trying to stay within calories. Hormones and bad food choices = water weight.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 91 (round 23 for me ) I'm in for another round, not quite as much holiday weight lost last round as I'd like due to my own sabotage towards the end, I am always so annoyed at myself after a binge, don't know why I let food rule my life!
Onwards and upwards in a new round - Just 20 days to go before our cheeky pre-Brexit break on The Algarve, must get these extra pounds off for then ! I can if I stay strong !!

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !

Round goal – lose rest of holiday gain; be mindful of what I eat & drink and keep walking.

09/ 133.8 – yippee a good drop for the start of the round, only managed 1.88 miles yesterday due to the persistent rain, but stayed on plan (difficult on Sunday with roast dinner), but only 23 calories over and all other macros in green. See if I can lose another pound by the end of the challenge.

10/01 133.8 – 8.87 miles walked, all macros in green.
10/02 133.2 – just over 6 miles walked yesterday. Wonderful day out with my lovely sisters yesterday & just 150 calories over my calories out – yay !!!
10/ 03 133.8 – 10.2miles walked yesterday and an hours yoga class;she worked us hard!! CICO in credit, all macros in green.

Goal : to run the 30 Day Shred programme everyday (it’s fun and structured).

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 - n/a - homemade bodyweight programme
10/01 - day 1 - Oof, I forgot about the arm exercises. But did it! And it feels good to finally get back into the groove of things.
10/02 - day 2 - Woke up sore from yesterday, which I liked :-)
Ok, day two was nice, slightly easier than day one. And it seemed shorter as well.
10/03 - day 3 - yikes, only did half the session. As if my heart isn’t in it anymore... I feel like I get bored so easily these days. But I must say I had a long day as well, and did the session when my energy levels were low.
I will do my session in the morning tomorrow. No sad feelings :-)

10/3: 198.0 I banked extra calories on Tuesday in anticipation of a high calorie day yesterday. A little disheartening, but will keep plugging away at it.

Goals
1 - Keep to 1200 cal (except run days 1400cal)
2 - Run 3x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4 – Core 30 day challenge

Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:

09/30 Start Weight 157.6
10/01 156.0 lbs (-1.6) 13,775 steps, 4.15km run/walk, core challenge 02/30 ok. I was not expecting such a loss, especially after having a good drop the day before! I’m really pleased as I was stuck going up and down in the 157.x for two rounds and it was starting to get me really down! Also, with my running I’ve started doing a 30-day body core challenge app (planks), to stop my abs from wobbling around when I run lol
10/02 158.0 lbs (+2.0) 6.461, core challenge 03/30 done… Ok so that was a shock, I had guessed that it would go back up a bit but that was more than a bit pfff I ate well until 6pm when we got home and only had time to eat a couple of cheese sandwiches before the math teacher showed up for my DD and I didn’t have time to make myself anything “normally” healthy. Then I had the bad idea to top if off with a piece of cake. I had thought I could squeeze in a run but that didn’t happen either. Anyway, today is another day, healthier dinner is planned and a run this evening.

10/03 – 157.4 (-0.6) 1224 cal, 15.455 step, Core 04/30 ok, 3.93km W7R1 ok. Yesterday was a good day, I went to the gym and used the treadmill which I found quite hard but I admit it has advantages and disadvantages: on the one hand, I found it boring which is the main disadvantage and also I was very hot in that stuffy gym but on the other hand I could easily increase speed incrementally and track my progress. Unfortunately I don’t have good balance therefore I was quite stressed about falling off and ending up on one of those silly treadmill failure videos! Food-wise I’ve realized I’m better when I don’t eat in the evening after a run so I just had an apple. I am seeing a big trend for my weight loss on days when I run compared to those days when I don't so I'm slowly going to try increasing exercise on the "no-run" days. This morning I did part of a Pilates video to get me going as well as the core app.

I wasn't as focused in R90 as I had hoped to be hence the minimal loss.

Start Weight 138.0lb

09/30 - 142.4lb (+4.4lb) Hosted my Dad's birthday dinner last night so good food, good company and a couple of glasses of fizz to celebrate. So a temporary blip on the scale as I know I didn't eat enough to put on 4lb but due mainly due to more carbs, late evening eating and sodium. Food all planned for today and aiming to drink plenty of water ..... All is good, feeling positive and a new month starts tomorrow too! Happy Monday

10/01 - 139.6lb (-2.8lb) Glad I don't only weigh once a week as would have been very demoralised yesterday - this is why I love daily weighing and learning to understand the effect different foods have on the scale every day. Another good food day planned and a gym PT session tonight and my water bottle is at my side

10/02 - 138.8lb (-0.8lb) Will take this quite happily. All heading in the right direction, actually been logging my food properly, staying in allowance and drinking my water and amazingly the scale goes down ..... Who would have thought it eh ?

10/03 - 138.3lb (-0.5lb) Still heading in the right direction so all is good. Decent food day planned and gym tonight so all good and feeling positive

My goal for this round is to avoid binge eating and stress eating. Avoid sugar and hopefully lose a little bit of weight

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 80.9 I gained weight during the last round. There was a lot of stress and I dealt with it partly by eating a lot, mostly candy. But now most of the stress is gone and I can get back on track again
10/01 80.9kg I was so tired yesterday and got hardly anything done. Periods really does sucks sometimes. But hopefully I’ll get started with some exercise again today.

I'm in. messed around the last round and bounced up and down the same few pounds. Aim this round is to get into the 139's.

30th Sept: 142.5. Had parents round for dinner yesterday. There was apple tart and ice cream. And cider Back to routine today.
1st Oct: 139.75. I don't deserve this low number today. Yesterday was AWFUL. 3 Krispy Kreme donuts. Crisps. Chocolate. Digestives with real butter. Apple tart. Trifle. No exercise. Just hit my steps that's about it. BUT this low weight has given me a pep up and I'm determined for today. Piloxing class tonight. Really hope I can keep the weight in the 130's.
2nd Oct: 139.25. Absolutely estatic with this. Stayed within calories, did 18k steps and a piloxing class. This is the lowest I've been in 5 years. I'd love to get more comfortable in the 130'3 but TOM is this weekend so lets see.
3rd: Oct: 138.5. WOW! Absolutely thrilled. Yesterday was a good day and went for a walk with my mam and dogs before it got dark. Its getting dark early here now - about 7:15pm and as I live in the country, my evening walks are numbered. I can drive to the nearest town for a walk but its an hour round trip. Piloxing class tonight although we are expecting storm Lorenzo to hit so it could be cancelled.
