Day/Weight/Comment
05/27 187.4 coming down from the weekend splurge
05/28 186.4 still on my way down
05/29 185.6 back to end weight of Round 113. Now to start losing again.
05/30 185.8 Friday’s are always tricky. I’m exhausted at the end of a long week and just want the “reward” of treat eating. Happy I contained the damage last night and ate at maintenance.
05/31 185.8
06/01 185.8 Three days in a row. Well, I’d rather be stuck at this number than a higher one, so I’ll take it.
06/02 185.0 I made it! Made my mini goal of 185 (again). Now to keep it by avoiding those weekend splurges (or DD grad splurge tomorrow) that just send me back recycling the same weight again.
06/03 184.8 Kept it! I’m going to wait until I have a week of weighing in below my mini goal of 185 before officially establishing my next goal. But I’m happy to be here and not higher!

I've been gone since before spring break...and it shows. Made myself weigh yesterday after almost 3 months of not weighing and realized I had gained 13 pounds during quarantine. Way too much wine and comfort food. Time to get back on track!

goals for this round:
C25K 3x per week
1200-1400 cals on non running days
1400-1600 cals on running days
I just wanna see something below 190 this round!
05/27 191.8 approximate total cals 1163
I was waiting for this round to start and then missed the beginning. but here I am. I feel pretty committed at the moment so lets hope we can keep it up.
05/28 191.8 ran 3 miles, approximate total cals 1600
05/29 191.2 approximate total cals 1441
05/30 191.4 ran 3 miles, approximate total cals 1698 It was raining but we waited 30 minutes and it cleared up. So humid, but we got it done. I was feeling really snacky last night but 100 cals over isn't that bad I guess.
05/31 191.6 approximate total cals 1380 trying to catch up on water today. I have had a bad headache every afternoon this week and it's really getting old and I want to eat chocolate and that's it.
06/01 191.8 approximate total cals 1558 which was a bit higher than I wanted, ended up having a 100 cal popsicle and 1.5 glass of wine last night before bed, just needed to unwind a bit. Still looking for a drop before the end of this round but approaching TOM is not helping in the least Ran 3 miles this morning and time was a bit quicker. In fact that is one of my big goals at the moment- I feel if I drop a few lbs my running will be easier!
06/02 192.8 approximate total cals 1873 so more like maintenance cals almost. well I didn't overeat but we had fried chicken for dinner due to company and I had potato salad (first time in forever) it was good but the carbs are sticking with me obviously. Lots of water today.
06/03 192.0 approximate total cals 1288 so on target there! hoping for a whoosh before the end of this round but body is not cooperating so far. NSV for today, my running partner told me today she could see some noticeable changes in my body so that was nice!

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!
06/02 229.0 GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAL! Well, for the round, anyway. Steps 12,063 / 201,716. Embrace the momentum! 30 more pounds to ONEderland!
06/03 229.0. Steps only 5006. Very long, busy day of work, my butt cheeks are sore from sitting in this chair for 12+ hours. Will try to get up more today. Lack of any activity showed up in my blood sugar this morning too (157). Can't have that!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/26 …..205.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
05/27 …..205.0 ….. No change. Today is going well (so far). Good luck everyone this round! I look forward to the (much needed) inspiration!
05/28 …..204.8 ….. Thankfully down a little. I went for the bloodwork on Tuesday and today I go back to see my doctor. Boy, am I ever scared! No, it has nothing to do with corona, temperature checks or masks. It has to do with my weight gain! I haven’t seen her since early fall and I am much fatter now. I am in big trouble!!!! Stay tuned….
05/29 …..204.7 …..
05/30 …..208.0 ….. Can you tell I had an unexpected trip out of town for business/building supplies? I didn't even get to post my weight yesterday. Posting today for both days. I arrived home last night. Way too many of both carbs and calories from the restaurant and travels which is clearly reflected on the scale. I am hoping some of this is water weight. We shall see. My Dr. Appointment on Thursday went as expected. Glucose too high, too much weight gain since fall and I have to take extra diabetic meds until weight goes back down. Stress eating has got to stop. I must get as many projects done as possible in June so I can get back out there walking and hiking for longer periods of time! I also miss walking at the school since it closed during the winter. More travel on Monday to go out of town for my 6 month comparison CT scan on my lungs (hopefully no breast cancer metastasized) and for more building supplies. I am going to try to make a positive impact on my weight all weekend.
05/31 …...206.8 ….. It never whooshes down quite as fast as it whooshes up, but I’ll take anything I can get! A busy workday today then more travel tomorrow. Today has GOT TO BE ON POINT!
06/01 …..206.8 ….. Travel again today. Today I get my CT scan to compare to 6 months ago when they found an “anomolly” on my lung. We are hoping it is not metastasized breast cancer. I have been in remission for a few years now. What they found on the lung last fall was new so there is that worry. I will also be picking up more remodeling supplies while near a big box hardware store. I will try to be a little more mindful than last time I travelled, but a restaurant will be part of the trip as it is going to be an all-day event and a long way away. Let’s hope I make decent choices while enjoying the city after my test. I won’t get results of the test until a telehealth appointment on June 10th.
06/02 …..208.2 ….. Had pizza during the travels. I didn’t eat the crust but it is still carb heavy. I will push water today and hope that what I saw this morning is all of it. Blazing HOT here today and no air conditioning. Miserable. A lot to do since I was gone yesterday. The first part of the month is always tough with a lot of bill paying etc. Getting back to it! Have a wonderful day everyone!
06/03 …..208.8 ….. Day before yesterday still showing up on the scale. Too much paperwork and sitting yesterday. Otherwise, the diet was pretty good. Another tremendously busy day today and tomorrow. I would love time to prep cook but I don’t know if I will fit it in. I have things I’ve prepped in the freezer that I will rely upon today.
06/04 …..xxxxx …..

@seawinters I just noticed your comment about the SF gummies. Yes, sugar alcohols are an excellent laxative for some. My daughter eats Russel Stover SF candies for that purpose. I made a beautiful, expensive low carb b-day cake for a friend. It was so yummy she and another friend ate a second slice and later paid the price! 🙁 I consider myself lucky in that I have never had that issue.3

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
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.

5/27 119.0 We had a wonderful meal cooked on the grill. Hamburgers (no buns) grilled spaghetti squash, sliced tomato, and Keto Blackberry Cobbler from Keto Connect. Fairly high carb day but all “healthy carbs.” It’s was all good.
5/28 119.0 spaghetti squash and mozzarella meatballs for dinner last night. Pulled pork. Social distance sewing today. High of 109 anticipated.
5/29 117.5 Healthy carbs and higher fiber the other day = +1.5 pounds. THAT is why I count TOTAL not net carbs. Carbs are carbs! My body hates them.
5/30 118.0 Our youngest grandson graduates (officially a week later than originally scheduled) this morning. What a messed up year end. There will be 2 sets of grandparents and 2 sisters with Mom and Dad in the Suburban. One car per family allowed to watch. Closer contact than we have had since early March!
5/31 119.5 Olive Garden after graduation. My first restaurant since early March. I got “shrimp scampi” which had 6 small shrimp in a gloppy sauce on pasta. I have never seen scampi in anything but garlic butter so did not consider this to be scampi. I picked out the shrimp and ate them and most of a big bowl of salad. No bread, no pasta. Nothing there is low carb so I expected the gain. It will go away. But so disappointed in not having any good choices. Another thumbs down for OG. We should have skipped it and gone home but wanted to be with daughter and family.
6/1 118.0 9:31 of sleep!!! Holy moly!!
6/2 117.5 7:59 of sleep!! This is great! And I have lost the carb weight from Saturday.
6/3 118.0 Yesterday was a hot busy day! I didn’t drink enough water. I realized at about 10PM. So, it is what it is and I’ve had a quart plus coffee already this morning.6 -

05/27 - 152.3 - 20 rounds in for me now in this challenge, I have lost 5 pounds over the 200 days. Lots of time and hard work for small results, but always happy to be trending down. I know that I could very easily put that 200 days of loss back on in one weekend. It would suck to have to spend another 200 days to get rid of one weekend of eating yummy stuff.
05/28 - 153.2 - Had some yummy stuff, keeping it to one meal, once in awhile.
05/29 - 152.6 - Hoping to see the 151s this round
05/30 - 151.4 - I slept in today, so this number could be a little skewed, but I will take it! New low.
05/31 - 152.7 - I am okay with that, 5 more days to work on lowering it.
06/01 - 151.7 - Another sleep in day. Hope to see the 151.4 tomorrow.
06/02 - 150.7 - Yet another sleep in day - Yay, new low
06/03 - 150.7 - Great. Maybe into the 140s by sometime next round.

Hi folks. Been struggling for a while during this self-isolation business and disappeared from here / MFP for a while. Haven’t been making very good choices food wise, haven’t been logging, haven’t been happy. I’m trying to turn that around and I’ve been on track for 2 days now after about 2 months completely off the rails.
While I wasn’t here for Rounds 109-114, I’ve included my weight data for that time on my history chart since I had the info available.

06/01 - 62.2kg, whaaaugh! Food choices limited while camping and too much rain to do any walking :-/
06/02 - 62kg, better, not just hoping for better tomorrow but doing the hard work
06/03 - 61.7kg, that's great, but there's been lots of bouncing around lately so not sure if this is sustainable

#norniron #stayingsafe@home
Looking forward:
I'm just too danged cussed to let this thing knock me back, and ruin all the effort I have put in to get here. I am stepping up my routine, and taking control. Sheltering in place means I can fully concentrate on getting in my exercise, and preparing healthy food.
- June: focus on maintaining and increasing my progress
- 2020: Goal is to stabilise weight around 145
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals by keeping busy
Never give up! Never give in!
Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 115 Posting weight and comments each evening.
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ So far, so good.
That's a WIN in my book!
2020
Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.

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.
