    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 115 (round 47 for me ) I'm in for another round – just keep going! As always; thank you @GrandmaJackie, such a champion particularly in these challenging times, helping to keep some stability in our lives, for setting up these challenges.

    Female age 62 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 !

    Goal – get back to 134 for this round.... - aim to get back to & stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep this 10 days binge free! Keep calm, wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be able to met up with my beloved family.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    05/27 135 – 12.74 miles walked yesterday. Another good day, need to stay in this mind set. Started pre-logging in the morning again. 933 calories in credit and all macros well in green.
    05/28 133.6 – wow ! greater loss than I expected, but I'll take it !! 11.27 miles walked yesterday, 537 calories in credit, all macros in green.
    05/29 133.2 – wow, wasn't expecting that ! Another drop, just shows how if I consistently eat healthily what a difference it makes!! Must retain that info when I get tempted to binge! 8.77 miles walked yesterday, 540 calories in credit, all macros well in credit.
    05/30 134 – 11.37 miles walked yesterday. Hopefully normal fluctuation, but knew the run would stop at some stage! 317 calories in credit and all macros in green.
    05/31 134.4 - 8.81 miles walked yesterday. 155 calories in credit, but carbs 24g over, other macros in green, but sodium although within limits higher than normal because of mussels at lunch time. Hopefully this will rebalance today.
    06/01 135.6 ?? I'm disappointed with this, I walked 9.95 miles yesterday & was 441 calories in credit, all other macros in green. Oh well, lets hope it's still just normal fluctuation. I'm not giving up, today is Monday and I'll get on with it!! Four days to get back down. Making the apple bread today.

    Enjoy the apple bread! Is it the recipe I posted last week? If so, it tastes great with the tiniest sliver on butter melted on top of a heated slice! It's been my breakfast for the past 4 days. Still not sick of it :)

    Goals for the round -- End the round under 230; continue to log food and post every day; focus n snacking control at night. Also, continue to log steps -- I decided on May 18 to walk a million steps before the end of July (70 days.)


    Round 100 SW 245
    Round 112 SW 242 (4/27/20)
    Round 113 SW 238.6
    Round 114 SW 235.2
    Round 115 SW 231.8
    GW: 199

    Day/Weight/Comment
    05/27 231.8, ready for another round! Woke up to low blood sugar this morning, actually had to dump sugar in. (Insulin dosing is not an exact science, especially when one is losing weight. Last night's bedtime dose was apparently just a tad too much.) So with 6 AM "snacking" I am already going to have to budget calories for the rest of the day. Steps yesterday: 18,747; steps to date: 139,941, a little ahead of pace. Blister well bandaged but tender, most of my steps were in socks/no shoes at the office! With the hallways empty due to everyone teleworking, I got up and walked through every phone call. Today makes one month of 10 Days. Thanks, everyone for the help!

    05/28 232.0, virtually unchanged. Steps 11,836 / 151,777. Perhaps instead of making my goal focus on snacking control it should have been exercising snacking control! I have bee focusing alright, I have far too much to focus on! I need to establish new habits.

    05/29 231.8. Blood sugar has been doing well, can't wait for my next appointment with "Dr. Furious." That's not until late July, but I think he's going to be surprised (that I will have lost weight and my sugar is good), happy (at my results), and frustrated (that I haven't been eating correctly like this previously and therefore have had poor sugar in the past.) Steps 10,754/162,531. I wish my foot would heal so I could go for a real walk! This is probably going to set me back a week or more longer but it is my own fault. So more sock-walking in the hallways at work and flip flop walking around the yard at home! No worries, I'll get as many steps in as I can and won't fret about what I can't do. Besides, it forces better food discipline -- if there are no "exercise calories" to eat, I am forced to make better food choices instead. Have a great weekend, all.

    05/30 231.8. steps only 8995. More later.

    05/31 230.8, steps 8409. I am going to attempt to get a gauze bandage to stay taped onto my foot today and see if I can gradually start increasing the steps again. I need to find a work around or resolve myself to just sitting and waiting it out for whatever time it takes to heal. I have to at least get the from yard cut, the weeds are a foot high in places with all the rain. At least the scale finally moved in the right direction!

    06/01 230.0, so close to my goal for this round! I haven't been below 230 in several years. I WANNA! Steps 9,718 / 189,653, basically right on pace for my July 1 step goal. Working from home for the next three days due to the troubles downtown. Lots of damage and debris. Pray for peace, pray for justice, and pray for each other.

    I do want to share one NSV from yesterday. Meals and snack-buying have changed little around my house and some days just trying to eat with the family has been challenging for me. Breakthrough yesterday.... Wyfe and Princess (lives-nearby-always-here adult daughter) talked early in the day about doing tacos for dinner. I said my usual "I will have to work it out to see if I have the calories" speech. Princess says "how about if we do taco SALADS?" and I pointed out that the ground beef and the shell would still drive the calories. And so she suggested "How about we shred a Costco rotisserie chicken instead of beef and toss it with taco seasoning, and we throw it in a BOWL and put Tostidos on the side instead of using a shell?" A "aha moment" for the family, and a very nice dinner indeed! Lettuce, campari tomatoes, salsa, pic de gallo, kalamata olives, jarred jalapenos, shredded cheese, chicken, (plus sour cream for them) and (for me, only 5) Tostidos..... 412 calories that were tasty AND filling! And my family steered the meal this way in support of my efforts. Family support.... a small but meaningful NSV!
