JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 99

Round 98 (My 20th!)
This will be a busy round as I try to balance holiday preparations, festivities, and end-of-semester demands. Hoping to minimize the take-out and convenience foods I usually fall back on when things get hectic and work in some time to walk.

1) Stay hydrated.
2) Log carefully and maintain a calorie deficit.
3) Walk or exercise 30+ minutes most days.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/09 β 176.4 β Typical Monday morning bounce, but it should be gone in a few days if I stay on track. Rain all day. No walk, so I started cleaning out the pantry β something I should have done months ago β and thinking that my grocery shopping habits are due for an update to match changes in my eating habits and lifestyle.
12/10 β 176.0 β Squeezed in a drizzly 30-min. walk after my morning class before the rain picked up. It felt good to be outdoors! Late dinner, but under my calorie limit. Tonight was my last evening class this semester π
12/11 β 175.4 β Snow!
12/12 β 175.6 β Forgot to post yesterday, but it was a pretty good day. The sun came out and melted most of the snow on the boardwalk, so I got a good walk in after my classes. Then went home and made a big pot of soup. Met my calorie and hydration goals, although I had a salty sandwich for lunch. No walk today but met my calorie goal. Need to drink more water.
12/13 β 175.6 β
12/14 β 175.6 β Feeling festive! Got our tree today, then went to a Christmas Market at the beach, where I got lots of steps in and picked up a couple of neat gifts. Dinner out and some extra treats put me over my calorie limit, but it is the holidays.
12/15 β DNW β Busy day. Never got around to logging or posting.
12/16 - ??? β Weighed in this morning but forgot to note it and by now Iβve forgotten. I know I was up though. No big surprise since I wasnβt really paying attention this past weekend. Last week of classes with a few last-minute student issues, so Iβm pretty distracted. I did finish my logging though and I made good food choices today. I even baked some amaretti for a meeting tomorrow and kept my taste-testing well within my calorie limit. But Iβm really struggling to stay hydrated in the dry heated air.
12/17 β 176.4 β Under my calorie limit today, but my macros were way off β lots of carbs and not much protein. Had a slice of pizza and a few cookies at my lunch meeting. The rest of the day was grab and go. Rainy and cold all day, but I wouldnβt have been able to fit in a walk anyway. Only two more days until winter break. I can make itβ¦
12/18 β 175.6 β Down a tiny bit (-0.2), but glad I was able to basically maintain through these hectic pre-holiday days. I ate more snacks than usual, but I didnβt go nuts or eat mindlessly while trying to get things done. One of my grandsons is 7 today, so Iβm posting a bit early since Iβll be out for a celebratory dinner. Only one more class to go tomorrow - yay!
See you all in Round 99!

I've lost 43 pounds by dietary changes alone, since returning in July. I did it this way intentionally to ease into sustainable practices, and now I'm ready to start adding in some exercise. I've been getting more general movement in but have not gone to the gym, gone for fitness walks, or done bodyweight training or any other form of actual exercise. I've added a new round goal to do "formal" exercise once a week. After that becomes an ingrained habit, I'll increase that goal and get more specific about which Primal Blueprint fitness activities I'm striving for. I have a feeling that I'm going to want to jump into this after I get started, but I want to keep my goals achievable.

Date β Weight in of the morningβ Summary of the previous day:
12/19 152.8 (-2.8) I'm super happy but not surprised by this loss, yesterdays' weight-in was after a dinner and this morning after a long fast period, the two extremes for me! I expect the weight to go back up over the next two days as I have diners tonight and tomorrow. At last things are less busy, today is a much quieter day in the office as most of my colleagues have already left for their holidays and I think there are three of us left I plan on going to the gym during my lunch break. Oh and I forgot to tell you, 2 weeks ago I ordered clothes as everything is too big now, especially my office clothes, but I ended up sending everything back as it was all to big, I had ordered one size smaller but I needed 2 if not 3 sizes down! Now I'm waiting for the sales as it's just in a couple of weeks

12/19 - 146 (BF 33.4%, MM 62.8%) - After a lot of stress during work, I folded and ate a peanut butter blossom yesterday along with a few other goodies scattered around the office. I took tomorrow off work as my family is taking me to see "Christmas Vacation" with a live appearance from Chevy Chase for my birthday tomorrow and I also have to renew my driver's license. I'm going to fudge the number and put 140 lbs. and make that my goal for next year...for my weight to match my license. Last year when my weight went below my driver's license weight of 160 lbs. (and I had fudged that one!) I wanted to run down to the BMV and get a new one, but in Ohio, we only renew every 4 years.

Due to lack of access to my regular scale, my entries will be somewhat of a guess for the latter part of this round. I will be weighing later in the day and wearing different clothes. I will miss some days too I suppose. It will mess with my averages, but it is what it is. I will just put an asterisk next to the number. Once back in the routine there will be a big correction in 2020. And, I will hit 199 sometime in 2020!

Back for Round 99
Female / Age 62 / 5'2"
OW: 158.5 (12/30/18)
UG: 135.0 (for now, healthy weight for me)
Intro:Let me introduce myself. I struggled with my weight as a teen, topping out at nearly 200. I dropped it after high school and got to a healthy weight. Every major life changed has brought weight back on - having kids, pre-menopause, menopause, family tragedy, post menopause. I've knocked it back down each time, and have been surprised that each time required a different strategy, and resulted in a different type of lifestyle change to maintain. Each time as been much harder and slower. At this point, it's moving off at a snail's pace.
Motivation. I have a hyatial hernia. It does not bother me as long as I keep the weight at 150 or below. Every female on my mother's side has had arthritic knees, and I'm starting to feel twinges. They have also sustained falls and broken bones. My husband had a major health scare a coupe of years ago. The idea of being put out of commission by a preventable injury or illness scares the bejimminies out of me.
Goals. The goals at this stage are to drop weight to a healthy range, realign my eating style to a lifestyle that will keep me healthy into my golden years, and strengthen the muscles that support my knees, ankles, and shoulders, along with my core, to prevent injury.
Dropping weight post menopausal has been so difficult, I need this to be the last time. 10-15 pounds used to be easy to drop, so that was always my warning bell to focus. Not so much now. Looks like a 3-5 pound fluctuation will be it.
A healthy weight for me is 135-140. I've always looked anorexic at 120. We'll see how things are at 135, and go from there.
Round StatsR95: SW 146.3 GW 146.0 EW 145.3 Results -1.0 loss
R96: SW 145.3 GW 144.0 EW 145.0 Results - 0.3 loss
R97: SW 145.0 GW 144.0 EW 143.8 Results - 1.2 loss
R98: SW 143.8 GW 142.8 EW 145.3 Results - 1.5 gain
Strategy: Up the hydrating foods. Fruit with breakfast. Salad/veggies as bulk of lunch. Healthy dinner. Limit/eliminate processed carbs and sugars. Zero calorie intake after 8pm. Strength exercises 3 days on/1 day rest. Regular movement through day to compensate for desk job.
R99 Challenges: My biggest challenge this round is setting a goal. I'd like to show below R98's SW of 143.8 to overcome the spike, but not sure that is realistic with the holiday looming on Day 7. Christmas dinner will be ham, and that will undoubtedly show up with a sodium bloat. Honestly, if I can hold steady, I will be happy. I guess the real goal is to continue to increase the amount of plant based hydration in my diet and get back to my workout schedule to gain as much ground as I can, then stay focused post-holiday.
R99 SW: 145.3
R99 GW: 144.3
12/19 (T) 144.2 (Trend Weight 144.8) Here we go with a little whoosh. That will help. Again, not doing anything different from last week - just watching normal fluctuations and trying to take it all in stride.

My goal this round is not to bounce up too much from all the holiday food. Iβm continuing my diet break until the 1st.
12/19 263.2 No idea where this came from. Iβm thinking that as tom has left so has some water weight. Iβm sure Iβll bounce all over this round.

I want to take a hot minute here to first thank @GrandmaJackie, and to share some observations as I start my 5th round.
I participate in a couple of different challenges. By far, this one is the most insightful. I've spent a lot of time in those other challenges trying to figure out what was going on with my results. A daily scale capture and a few words about what is going on around that number here is invaluable.
I have saved a little index of my last post in each round, and I can go back and look for patterns.
We put a lot of emotional and physical focus, effort, and energy into this. Changing habits is hard work. Have to remember to live life, learn to cope with stressors, and deal with the unexpected. We are tracking numbers that are just a single marker, and tend to get wound up when they don't match the effort.
In doing that, we sometimes overlook the real successes and how much progress we are actually making - and, sometimes, what the ultimate goal is. Sure. There's a number involved. But there's usually some other motivation. How much progress towards that we are actually making is the true measure of success.
For me? I'm at a number below the weight that triggers my hyatial hernia. It's winter, it's cold and damp, and I have only had a couple of days that I needed Aleeve for my knees vs daily last year this time. I was edging towards high cholesterol last year. This year I'm back in a normal range. I have not yet been hit with a cold or upper respiratory infection. I feel better and have more energy. My ultimate goal may be represented by a number, but it is ultimately about being healthier, avoiding pain from thehyatial hernia, and increasing joint strength and flexibility to prevent injury (and recover better in the event of one). Yes. I'm down a size. But I am well on my way to the overall goals.
And, back to the point, when I get frustrated with my progress (or lack thereof), I can go back to my daily notes in these rounds and they reassure me that all is well.14 -

So so day yesterday, including Thai frestaurant for lunch with friend, so sodium galore. Of course there are several holiday events coming up the next week, so as long as I donβt gain anymore before the end of the month Iβll be ok.

Day, Weight, Comment
12/19 - 153.4 - I'm not sure how accurate this is. I took off work today because for the second night in a row I was up with horrid coughing fits until the wee hours of the morning (3 am, I wake up for work at 5). I feel fine this morning but it seems once I've been upright then go to lay down, I'm done for. Not sure what's going on. I decided to take the day off after I started feeling feverish and I was throwing up from coughing so hard. Now all I feel is a sore nose and throat. Going to take it easy and rest today in hopes tonight is better. I'd be really surprised if this weight stuck since I know I'm dehydrated regardless of all attempts to keep liquids in. Have soups and soothing foods at home so I'll be focusing on those. Hello sodium (:
