motheroftwins95

End of Round 100 - 173.0

1/8 - 172.4 Big unhealthy breakfast this morning for co-worker. Will have to be very careful the rest of the day.
1/9 - 174.0 I knew that breakfast yesterday was going to get me. Trying to get back to it today. Going to try to drink lots of water to flush it on thru.
1/10 - 172.4 It worked. Got back to plan and the weight (water) dropped off. Facing the challenge of the weekend with determination.
1/11 - 172.8 Not good - not bad.
1/12 - 175.4 Bad! Bad!
1/13 - 175.0 Thank goodness the weekend is over.
1/14 - 174.4 I'm going to have to work real hard to show a loss for this round but I know I can do it.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 - 146.5 - Good start to the round. The boss is taking us to lunch at an Italian restaurant today, so I'll check the menu before we go to see the best options.
01/09 - 146.5 - I'm glad to see the sodium didn't bump me up today. I have to have an ingrown toenail removed and the nailbed sealed today, so that will probably limit the amount of steps I have over the next couple days. I'm planning to use our old exercise bike and rowing machine more than I usually do to make up for the lack of movement.
01/10 - 147 - This bump up could be due to a number of things. I hate going into the weekend at a higher weight, but this should just make me pay more attention to what I'm eating. Happy Friday!
01/11 - 147
01/12 - 146.5
01/13 - 146.5 - I had a crazy weekend. We had a bad windstorm Saturday night that resulted in a lot of damage to our 100 foot pine trees lining our back yard. We spent yesterday cleaning up the branches, patching part of the fence, and contracting with a landscaper to take out a damaged tree before it falls over. The good news is that I did not stress eat and I did get in a lot of exercise!
01/14 - 146.5 - My toe was bothering me yesterday due to the activity on Sunday, so I hopped on our exercise bike and pedaled for about a half hour last night.

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

Do you take measurements? I’m terrible at that myself but if you are losing FAT and gaining MUSCLE your weight may not change but your body composition will. A pound is a pound but muscle takes up less space! - Jpv, 11/22/19

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.

01/08 121.5 Late dinner last night, couldn’t go to sleep (drinking a Bang on the drive back from DGD’s basketball game wasn’t a good plan), awake early as DH had to take friends to the airport at 6.
01/09 121.0 Went to the gym yesterday for the first time in a long time (November??) My leg hurts - so mad I forgot to ask the doctor about sciatica-the assistant had made a note but then he and I got into a blood pressure med discussion and I forgot and he didn’t see her note, I guess.

01/13 121.0 BP check at doctor’s office this morning and meeting my friend at the gym this afternoon. BP’s are always good at home, we’ll see how it is at the office. White coat syndrome. Our baby turned 47 today!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08--207.0 My stomach did not feel well this morning, and I know I ate something that I am sensitive to. I'm going to drink a lot of water today, and be careful about what I eat today.
01/09--207.0 Stomach feeling better, but still not 100%. I was able to finish another session of YWA last night.
01/10--206.5 Went to the gym this morning. Finished Day 8 of YWA yesterday, it was a relaxing session, which I definitely needed.
01/11--206.3 Relaxing day today and going out to a movie.
01/12--205.6 I did not eat any of my hubby's popcorn during the movie yesterday, and what helped me was that I brought an apple with me to the movie. I didn't eat the apple during the movie, but by bringing the apple it helped me mentally, because it made me question whether I was really hungry before I ate the popcorn, or did I just want to eat the popcorn because it was there. If I told myself that I was really hungry, then I told myself, "well, you have an apple with you, so you can eat it once the movie is over." That self-talk helped me from mindlessly eating the popcorn. Strength coach this morning and then going out for an early dinner.
01/13--206.1 Yesterday, I went out for dinner yesterday, and I chose a great lower calorie meal. I also had a really hard workout with my strength coach yesterday, he changed up my workout for preparation of my Spartan race, and I am so sore this morning. Goal today is water. Ballet class this evening.
01/14--205.6 I had another great ballet class yesterday, but I'm still sore from my workout on Sunday. More water today, and other than my yoga, no other workout for me.

Day/Weight/Comment:

1/08: 132.0 - can't complain when it doesn't go up. Weight lifting yesterday and this morning plus 25 minutes treadmill/elliptical. An hour in the gym this morning and my apple watch says I burned 300 calories. Hard to stay under calories when I can eat that back in a nanosecond. But still feeling on top of this for now. Stopped at grocery store and bought lots of veggies for roasted veggies and garbanzo beans tonight. Have a fantastic healthy day, everyone!

1/09: 130.4 - Wow, that's pretty cool. I've changed my diet to maximize protein, which is really hard for me as a vegetarian. The last 2 nights, even though I wasn't hungry, I added an 80 calorie/15 gram protein plain greek yogurt at the end of the day (on top of adding as much protein as possible during the day) and maybe that has made a difference. And I started lifting heavily on Monday, lifted the last 3 days. Taking today off from lifting because my arm is sore and I'm trying to listen to my body. But might add some sort of activity.

1/10: 131.0 - no work out yesterday, was hard to stay within calories without those "extras" but I did it. Today, great workout (back and biceps) and 20 minutes elliptical. Taking a road trip tonight to look at some cheap cars and dinner will be on the road, must make good choices.

1/11: 130.0 - just hit my goal weight! Took a solid year to get here and it feels pretty amazing. Now to keep it here! I think 2 things really jump started the weight loss over the last month - eating more protein and lifting weights. Well, that and eating consistently at a deficit. Who knew ;-).

1/12: 129.0 - going to enjoy this downward trend for as long as it lasts. Great workout yesterday, ate under calories and got lots of protein. Btw, 125 is my ultimate happy, happy weight. 130 was a “let’s see how I feel when I get there” goal.

1/13: 129.2 - Had a great workout today but I overdid it and my tennis elbow is very sore. I was doing so well, thought it was getting the rest it needed but now I feel like the last 2 weeks off from pickleball was for nothing. Very frustrated with myself for not taking it slowly. I know better.

1/14: 129.8 - Forcing myself to take today off from working out. Sitting still is a challenge. Considering going swimming, that's rest, right?

Day/Weight/Comment

1/8: 220.2 (+0.8)/18.5 (+0.1). Alright. I've had enough. Once I get below 215.0 (which I will, eventually), that will be the number that makes me refocus, no matter what. That's what 220.0 is for me right now. Time to get my $#!+ together. I'll be in the gym tonight. I'm going to make today a good day.

1/9: 219.2 (-1.0)/18.4 (-0.1). I hit the gym last night, and it felt much better than last time. My neck and shoulder are actually hurting less AFTER going, which for some reason is how my body tends to work. I've been dragging my feet on this, but I think I'm almost ready to give keto a go again. I've had a lot of success on it in the past, and I've been hovering between 215 and 220 for months now.

1/10: 219.0 (-0.2)/18.4 (0.0). I went a little wild with dinner last night after I found a really good local poke/ramen place. I'm finding myself REALLY sore today after the gym a couple of days ago. It's amazing how just taking even a week or two off can affect my experience there. I'm back on track with my schedule at the gym, however; I'll be lifting weights tonight after work. I really hope basketball starts back up again soon. I miss it, even though I know the first 2-3 times I play will be terrible. Getting older SUCKS!

1/11: 218.0 (-1.0)/18.3 (-0.1). I tried not to eat yesterday unless I was hungry. I didn't make it to the gym yesterday, but I'm going this morning with my wife. I'm going wine tasting and having dinner with my parents and wife today. I'll do my best to keep it "under control," but this would likely be one of those "cheat days." I'm going to focus on portion size.

1/12: 220.2 (+2.2)/18.5 (+0.2). I didn't do a great job of "staying under control."

1/13: 221.0 (+0.8)/18.6 (+0.1). I had a surprise 1.5 year old visitor yesterday (my nephew/Godson), and we "ordered in" dinner when his parents arrived to pick him up. I was pretty good throughout the day, but dinner was a bit of $#!+ show. I WILL, however, be going to the gym tonight after work. And I AM going to get this thing under control. Here's to everyone (including me) having a good week!

1/14: 219.4 (-1.6)/18.4 (-0.2). The work week is ALWAYS better for me. I'm busy all day, and I'm 100% in control of everything that goes in my mouth. Even as I say that it sounds funny; I am, of course, ALWAYS 100% responsible for everything I put in my face. But work is easier. Even dinner is easier, because having to go to work the next morning appropriately limits what I can do for dinner. I'm going to need to think about this a bit more.

01/12 159.4 This week is motivating, but I know it is also mostly water weight from cutting sodium back and logging again. I have this bad habit of eating when I am annoyed or upset with my spouse... Which is a lot recently. 😂
01/13 160 beginning my second week of logging again and stepping on the scale daily. Yesterday I ate well, but I could have skipped the bread and wine at dinner. I'm feeling emotionally much better today than I have in about six months. I know the impact food has on my mental health, but very hard to do anything about it sometimes. It is not yet 11a and I have almost hit my step goal for the day after a 70 minute hike.
01/14 159 ate very well and very clean yesterday. Planning on replicating today. Heading out for another hike.

01/08 - 218 - Started logging food in MFP for first time in a long time. Had a decent leg and exercise bike workout. We did go out to dinner but I still managed to stay a good chunk under daily calories by having some salmon, asparagus and potatoes. Well, just a couple pieces of calamari too….couldn’t resist!
01/09 - 217
01/10 - 216 - Staying under calorie count definitely helping...so far. Morning 400 cal leg and exercise bike workout.
01/11 - 216
01/12 - 215 - Full court basketball day. Ended early unfortunately so didn’t get the usual burn.
01/13 - 215
01/14 - 215 - Not going up...that’s a good thing!

Round 101 - Jan.8 to Jan.18
Female, 5’, 66 years. SW – 166.4, GW – 165 something, 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.)
After reading over the comments on the last round, and also noting that my invisible GERD which had not bothered me for a long time is back, I’m going to try to stick faithfully to “no food after supper” for this round. I don’t know if that qualifies as IF (12-13 hours) but that is what gave me the idea. I think that the anti-viral meds were not kind to my stomach and also the extra few lbs all seem to be right on the middle which gives my stomach less space so giving my stomach a break seems like a good way to go.
01/08 – 166.2 – No food after 7:30 p.m. last night and definitely feel better this a.m. though woke up a little cold. Off to the gym for a short session.
01/09 – 165.6 – Managed IF again last night, even with spending a lot of time on the computer. Gym was good though shorter (kept it to 1 hr. including stretches). Also used a much lower resistance to be kind to the body.
01/10 - 166
01/11 – 166 – Late start yesterday and had to get to the gym in the morning if I was to go so did weigh but didn’t post. Did make it to the gym and also first coat on 4 doors. Couldn’t sleep because arm was hurting and finally took a painkiller – not my right though, or I would blame the painting, maybe something at the gym. So, was hoping to paint a second coat today … trying to decide if possible sore arm is worth the risk for the joy of having one more thing painted and off the list. That moving date is always at the back of my mind and I feel so much better if I know I’m keeping things moving forward.
01/12 – 166.2
01/13 - 165
01/14 – 165 – So great to see this number 2 days in a row. Now have 3 family weddings coming up – 2 in spring and 1 in Aug. If I can just get the weight down a bit and keep at the gym, I’ll be able to wear something I already have. Hate shopping under pressure because of a special event. Made it to the gym yesterday, painting today. Think I’m going to alternate because have to watch that I don’t overdo it on the arm exercise.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 …..190.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
01/08 …..190.6 ….. A bit over calorie & carb yesterday so I’m glad to see no change actually. I walked at the school yesterday for 79 minutes burning an extra 467 calories. I was slowed down by a very nice older lady who walks daily to support her walking brother. I wanted to go faster, but wanted to be kind. I’m glad I did. She’s even nicer than I thought! What nice conversation we had! 12/13 fitbit step hours. I charged my fitbit overnight so I don’t know exact sleep either but it wasn’t good. I was a little better on water. Good Luck everyone this round!

01/09 …..194.0 ….. Travel day yesterday. Lots of sitting and a delicious menu to consider. If it was a test I failed it. Usually it is worth it, yesterday it was not. However, I did enjoy my time alone and away from home with my son who lives with me. It’s sometimes hard to get him out of his room and off the computer. That was the only thing I truly enjoyed. I am so glad to be home where I can get things back in control. I managed to burn 867 extra calories yesterday with the walking during the shopping. That is the only other bright light in the dark tunnel. Today I will begin my IF again. Today will be a good day. One day at a time in 10 day blocks, right? I’ve added my newest goal to this page, to be in the 170’s by Easter. Winter in isolated rural northern Michigan is a shut-in time but I can do this!

01/10 …..194.2 ….. This is just becoming very NOT FAIR!!! I had another severe glucose drop last night (it always happens evening or night AFTER I’ve had my allotted cals & carbs for the day). Frenzy filled face stuffing. I try to be mindful and trusting of the process of bringing it back up but I’m fighting human instinct here. To give you an idea, my glucose was 38. I think two things may be happening. #1 – my body has become re-accustomed to (too many) carbs between Thanksgiving & Christmas and is fighting me on the lower carb plan. #2 My weight is up, therefore, my T2D is worsening again. So the plan is to ease back into my low carb way of life which, in the end, is exactly what will help my T2D the most if I can just get past this hump again. (I went through all this is 2018 when I first started Keto). On the positive side, I walked 9.03 miles yesterday, I burned 3037 Calories. I walked over 21,000 Steps. I am back to staying active. The best part of all, I am committed. I’m just telling myself to “Hang on Donna. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.” I have moved past all of this before and I will do it again.


01/11 …..194.2 ….. Still working on balancing my glucose and following my plan. I must also work harder on the water!

01/12 …..194.2 ….. Talk about stuck at a weight! I felt a bit better yesterday without a major glucose episode but I can chalk that up to the fact that it was movie night with my son and it did involve a few more carbs than I normally allow, so no fuel cravings from my body. Today is a busy work day with lots of cabins to clean. I will get my exercise in and be mindful of my diet. I hope my body continues to adjust for me. I know it will…..it just takes time.

01/13 …..195.4 ….. Heavy work day yesterday including cabin cleaning & lots of snow cleanup (12.5 inches). Food on the grab not helping my cause. I will work harder today on myself. I hope to get to the school later to walk the halls. Steps good so far today at home. Perhaps some prep cooking tonight for my freezer if I can fit it in. I find that I am sleeping in the 4 hour range again these past few nights. That is not helping.

01/14 …..192.0 ….. After s.l.o.w.l.y easing back into lower carb I finally see a drop on the scale. Last night I began to feel a bit of a sugar drop, I pounded the water and ate an atkins indulgence bar and it passed. Thank Goodness! I just wasn’t in the mood to feel so sick again! Yesterday’s stats: 1194 Calories In / 2782 Calories Out. 16 Net Carbs. 20,367 Total Steps & 8.62 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 3 minutes. In spite of this persistent knee pain I walked at the school for 147 minutes at 3.0 mph burning an extra 753 calories. My son started back on his diet plan yesterday. It is completely different than mine due to his food issues related to sensory & autism. However, I have been cooking two different meals for each meal all along so it will not be an issue. I hope he doesn’t easily give up!

I've weighed in at what's typically my heaviest time of day. While the number distresses me, this change will provide a built in cushion of a few pounds when I'm back at my normal weight.
01/09. 177.2
No weight loss goal for the round. My focus is to avoid eating out and having processed foods at home. When I stick with this and get my exercise in the scale will eventually cooperate. As usual it will happen painfully slow but fat loss will happen.
01/10. 176.4
I ate until it hurt yesterday but my calories and macros landed where they should. Unprepared and living without a plan never works for me. Today I'll be ready.
01/11. 175.6
I did well yesterday with the exception of a very late dinner. This is no big deal since I'm following a 16/8 Intermittent fasting program for three days filled by one non fasting day. Dinner crossed into my non fasting day leaving my program in tact.
01/12. 173.6
An early weigh in has me a bit lighter than reality but I'm more focused on size than pounds. Weight is an objective measure for posting but a perfectly fitting wardrobe is my goal.
01/13. 174.2
I'm expecting a hellish start to my week so beforehand I want to get my weigh in done. Lately I've let everything get in the way of my personal needs but not this time. Today's 0.6 gain is as artificial as yesterday's 2.0 loss because of the varying times of day. (However, I still feel hurt whenever the scale goes up.)I'm outside of my time restricted eating zone this morning but I'll make it up on the other end. So far it's been a good week. My appetite is under control and my macros are on point.

01/14. 173.4
Yesterday I screwed up in such a way that to provide an accurate description in the words I would normally use would be far too rude for this forum. While both fast and keto are done for, calorie average is ok. Today has been better but it's early yet. My danger zone will not begin for hours. Lately I've not felt much inner strength but I'm going to fake it. Doing right when I would rather do wrong will plague me this evening. Nonetheless I must work at it. The struggle continues and I know I'll succeed.

Thanks so much MFP🤩Friends for the support and feed back. While I haven't had time to read posts I've seen the notices. I'll borrow from your strength today.

01/10-173.4 well I was having a major case of the snackies yesterday so I'm not suprised didn't go too crazy with calories but maybe ate a bit more than my BMR, Today will be better.
01/11-175.6pizza......and wine 😭
01/12-175.7 this is not accurate! I forgot to weigh in today until after I ate so I think im probably in an ok place! I randomly tried intermittent fasting today since I had kind of a crazy morning and i think i like it! This is coming from a big big breakfast supporter and a person who loves cream in my coffee. Might just give it a go tomorrow too!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 81,7 kg Yesterday I wasn't really into food, ate anyway to keep metabolism up and running. I think I have never been glad in my life before when I had not to eat anymore;)
01/09 81,9 kg went for a walk, calories were good and managed to fast 24hrs in between meals:) TOM soon to be there, I can feel that I have water retentions which will pass in a few days anyway. Today is a regular eating day. It's morning and I have a feeling that I won't be having any problems this time to eat more:-)
01/10 81,9 kg Food and calories were all good yesterday. Had a trigger directly after the second meal. When it feels like nothing is going to satisfy you..., probably because of hormones. ACV and green tea helped a bit. Only planned on a short walk, maybe 10 minutes and ended up doing 60 minutes:). Don't know if I wish TOM would be there already, then I get rid of the water retentions (well, that's the only pro...). Plan for today: Fast-day, maybe I make it to 24hrs. 5 more hrs to go:)
01/11 80.7 kg Nice! That's about the weight I had before Christmas. Tried MCT oil, only to learn that mine was made from Palm sth and is not good. So back to coconut oil. Why is that, that I mostly end up throwing away the fancy stuff and in the end stick to my natural foods:-)) I never learn. Should stop watching videos of men with big arm muscles and all the fancy products they are promoting...And it didn't make me more awake when I was tired. Taking an iodine pill did the trick much better. tststs...Calories were good, I fasted for 22 hrs. Exercised only a little, was tired. Which was to be expected - hormones (or rather lack of it shortly before TOM).
01/12 80,2 kg Went for a short walk, it was eating-day, was in calories. Two bigger meals were enough. So my next meal will probably tomorrow around 1pm. Noticed that my favourite ring fits comfortly, even after walking when fingers are thicker. Half a month ago it wouldn't fit at all.
01/13 80,2 kg Went for a longer walk and hit last weeks's exercise goal:) fasted for 24 hrs. I like the way that I feel in a fasted state. Everything feels a bit calmer and slower - but in a good way. Today TOM is hitting strong.

01/14 80,1 kg Stuck to the plan. I start getting used to the IF and I really like it. Fasting seems to be getting easier by the day. My body responds well to the keto/IF regime. I am waiting for less weight loss, don't think it will continue forever like this;)

****** Lessons-
1. If you are going to eat out, plan ahead on what to order.
2. Have a big snack before from home to control desires when eating out.
3. Dont even take a bite of dessert if you intend to avoid. Avoiding desssert after the first taste of sugar already is hard.
4. Limit alcohol further. 1 day a week is not sufficient. First taste of sugar rule applies here as well. Limiting after 1 becomes hard.

So I am trying to get back on track. I reached my goal weight right before Christmas and then lost it. I am up about 6 pounds from where I want to maintain. So we will see what happens in this round. Have not really given it 100% or participated fully since round 97, yikes! This is my round to get my breakfast and lunches back on track and cut down on my alcohol.


01/08 - 144.3 Yikes! Breakfast and lunch were planned and I have not gone off track since Monday. Hoping to start losing anytime now. Have pretty much stayed right here the last couple of days. Ready for a water whoosh any day now!

01/09 - 143.1 I think my scale and body are confused on what I should weigh right now. I'm sure my body is freaking out that I ate a salad for lunch 2 days in a row, lol. I have been terrible the last couple of weeks and back on track only for the last couple of days. The first time it said 142.2, then 143.1, then 142.7, so I am going with the highest and hoping for another drop today. I would love for at least 4 pounds of this to be water weight. If I can get back into the 130's that would be amazing, but I am sure I have gained some actual weight the last month or so. I guess time will tell!

01/10 -143.0

01/11 - 139.8 Yes almost back to my pre-Christmas banaza weight!

01/12 - 139.8 I'll take it

01/13 - 140.7 Not bad for a Monday! Totally ok with this. We had fast food for dinner last night, but no alcohol all weekend. I am trying to finish out strong and get back down to 137 or 138. May take me another week or 2, but we will see. On track so far today and hoping to do the same tonight

01/14 - 142.0 I am sure this is from the chocolate that I ate right before bed or could be because I ate a pickle late to. I am having super weird cravings. I think it's because I am trying not to snack and cut myself off of the crabs and sugar that I have been indulging in the last couple of months. I should be back down tomorrow hopefully. No snacking tonight, no snacking tonight! (Hopefully)

01/08 - 189.4! Wow, down already into the 180s My goal for this challenge is to be in the 180s by the end of it, so hopefully I can maintain this loss. Still feeling sick as a dog, I dont know when I'm going to kick this cold, it's been going on forever. But hopefully if I keep eating healthy and getting lots of sleep, it will go away soon.
01/09 - 189.2! So glad to stay stable! Still really sick, didn't get any work done today, mostly lay in bed sleeping all day. Hoping to be healthier soon but happy to at least still be making progress.
01/10 - 191... up quite a bit and very bummed. Hopefully it's mostly bloat from being sick, but motivating to be stricter about my diet. Feeling a little better today, so I am going to try to get some good work done today but not going to try exercising again until I'm all better.
01/11 - 191.4... womp womp, not what I wanted to see but maybe my body is just recalibrating after last challenge's huge loss.
01/12 - 191! Down a little bit, which is nice. Had a lot of trouble sticking to my diet. It's hard to keep motivation when the scale isnt cooperating, but I'm still so far from where I started that I shouldn't be throwing in the towel so easily. Did better with my diet today
01/13 - 190.4! Yay, at least back to where I started this challenge If I can maintain this or even lose a little by the end of the challenge, I will be happy. First day back at work after being sick, trying to get lots done. Don't want to push myself too hard, because I'm not all the way recovered yet, but doing some light exercise today to get myself back in the fitness game.
01/14 - 190.2! Well, down is down. Did much better on my diet today, now I just gotta get my writing productivity to match it... having such a hard time focusing my thoughts and energies

Due to lack of access to my regular scale, my entries will be somewhat of a guess for the first part 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!

Round 101 (23 for me)
Ready to jump in to the first full round of the year! My goal this round is to get started at my campus fitness center and up my exercise routine – a big deal for me since I’m basically an athletically challenged book nerd who’s never belonged to a gym before. So…I’m a little nervous. Maybe more than a little. But I’m inspired by so many of you here and I’m looking forward to trying something new.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 – 172.0 – Cold and windy, but I took a short walk around campus after I toured the fitness center. We’re still on winter break, so it wasn’t too crowded or intimidating. I’ve got a physical with my new primary care physician tomorrow to get my medical okay and then I should be good to go. Made a delicious, healthy dinner tonight and met my calorie and logging goals. I’m a little surprised at how glad I am to get back to my MFP routine after the holidays.
01/09 – 171.2 – Nice little drop before my appointment today. (Weighed in at 173.0 with shoes and clothes on the doc’s scale.) Waiting on the results of my bloodwork, but my BP is back down to normal – woo hoo! Met up with my daughter for lunch, an indoor walk, and shopping for exercise clothes. Under on calories, but lots of salt, so I may see a bump up tomorrow. Not worried because I’m logging everything and staying on track. And feeling great!
01/10 – 172.2 – There’s that salt bump – happens every time I east out. Walked for over an hour and used some of my exercise calories to have another glass of wine and a piece of chocolate after dinner. Tried a new recipe – Michael Symon’s baked cod shakshuka. Delicious and pretty healthy, although fairly high in sodium. Eating out again tomorrow for my husband’s birthday, so I don’t expect to see a drop for a few days. But I’m going to eat sensibly and otherwise relax and enjoy the weekend.
01/11 – 172.6 – Still climbing, but I’m not going to stress over it. We had a multi-generational birthday celebration for my husband with a a couple of rounds of laser tag followed by a delicious dinner at a local Mexican eatery. We all had a blast! Now I’m totally wiped out!
01/12 – 173.2 – It is what it is. Taking down the tree today, but I’ll try to squeeze in a walk in this unseasonably warm weather. It’s such a gorgeous day that I don’t want to spend it all indoors. Dinner at m mom’s tonight, so I won’t be cooking again, but it’s back to the normal routine tomorrow. (Wrote yesterday’s post last night, but for some reason I couldn’t connect with the server, I gave up and went to bed.)
01/13 – 173.6 – Okay, enough of this. Time to turn this ship around. Walked for an hour in the cool and misty woods, working up a sweat on the hilly terrain. Stopped for an herbal iced tea at a nearby café and was sorely tempted by their luscious blueberry hand pies. But I resisted (and kept to my calorie limit) – guess that’s today’s NSV.
01/14 – 172.8 – That’s a little better. Another day of sticking to my calorie limit and staying hydrated. Rainy day and I had a lab test, so I made this my rest day. Got my doc’s sign-off for the gym with no restrictions, so I’m almost there.

Ready for round 101 {38th for me}
OSW 88KG
RSW 59.85 kg (-28.15 kg) or {- 62 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started

01/08 60.0kg...slight uptick but it was all perfect yesterday so I'm not worried. Gym done just stretching to do later.
01/09 60.10 kg. Another minor uptick without a reason as all was perfect yesterday. Plenty of days left for it to go again. Trainers other clients didn't show up this morning so I got his undivided attention... Abs aren't convinced this is a good thing!
01/10 60.10kg and another great workout. Physio this pm for a sports massage. Can't wait for the weekend!
01/11 59.45kg...that was my lowest last year. Now to see new lows. Today I'm going to clean out the sewing room and do my stretches as I've missed then out the last 2 days.
01/12 59.0kg...a new low! So pleased the hard work has paid off this week. Sewing shed cleaned out but stretches not done. Going to do it today morning and evening.
01/13 58.90 kg 1st time for seeing 58 anything since I went above it! Will probably bounce up but I'm happy. Trainer was on fire this morning... Full body plus cardio 💪
01/14 59.2kg. Not a problem as I usually get an uptick after a loss. Just need to keep it small. Gym was tough... Lower body.
01/15 58.8kg.Delighted with the loss! It's a public holiday here in Malawi so I'll be going to the gym a bit later and will do stretches after.

01/14- 148.0 my average is moving down, I’m staying motivated. I am not going to settle for “good enough” or think “this is the weight my body wants to be”. I’m going to keep working and get to my goal.

That's a great way of expressing it. I nearly gave into the "it's good enough" but kept on and had a break through. So long as the average is moving down!
