Round 115 - May 27 to June
Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 167 GW – under 167, UGW – 140.
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, 5-6 glasses of water a day, complete my tracking every day and get some kind of outdoor exercise unless it is raining – in which case indoors. Well, .8 down from last round so I guess that is better than up. Beginning of June we want to have the house ready for realtor assessment – so my goal is to keep at it without caving in to stress eating. Just have to keep focused on how great it will be to be done.
Hard to believe it’s another round already – seems like forever since things were normal, and yet the days fly by!
Day/Weight/Comment
05/27 – 167 – Spent the morning on the computer downloading & typing – glad that’s not my job anymore (way back in the ‘70’s was one of the first doing computer input on a keyboard at the U. of S.) Later, time spent in the garden weeding and moving some rocks. No IF and no tracking, planning a more regular day today with minimal computer sitting.

@mlagioia “The older I get, I have found this is the only way I am able to successfully kick weight loss into gear.”
I’ve found this to be so true for me. It seems to be one of the things I have to do to make any progress, but man it’s hard to convince myself of that around 9 or later in the evening.

05/27: 217.6 / I have to say this challenge really works for me. I have very little willpower by myself. Any number I record for these ten days would otherwise be higher if not for this group. My expectations are pretty high for this ten day period, just as a correction for the Covid-19 stress eating I have been doing.

Starting over! Reached goal weight in February and went into maintenance and then COVID-19 happened and have been trying to adjust but obviously failing! I know what I an doing wrong -drinking wine every night with dinner ( I realize this is stress related), cooking interesting recipes cause I have all the time now to cook from home, baking sour dough bread, etc but not lifting really heavy weights or enough cardio to balance CICO :-(

05/28 113.5 ughhhh time to restart despite COVID-19 disruptions to gym and dealing with 13 yo twins distance learning (and increased conflict) plus working from home (OK thankful for job!). Got to figure out new plan - I have an elliptical and some weights, but not at the same level of gym for dead lifts, bench press, squats, leg press or spin classes as before. Obvious solution is to cut calories now if I cannot exercise at the prior level but much harder when BMR is 1170. Can do it but need to get my mind back in this. Hoping the accountability here will help!

Round Goal Weight: This is my first round and I'm also seriously trying intermittent fasting for the first time... Trying 16/8 and it seems to be helping with my energy so far. By the end of the round, I would love to see 210, but realistically 212 maybe... I'm working on it though
I love intermittent fasting and have been consistently for the past two months (on and off over the past few years)! I typically have my first meal around 11am and finish before 7pm. I enjoy it because I have two larger meals and a snack. I feel much more satisfied than if I had three smaller meals.
What block of time do you typically eat during? How are you liking it so far?
That's good to hear @kblanc14 ! With 16/8, I time my first meal around 1pm and make sure I'm done by 9pm, but lately I've been feeling pretty good having my first meal around 2pm and finishing my eating window around 8pm. Not doing breakfast has actually helped with my energy levels during the day and I'm not as hungry. In fact I'm struggling to get my calories up. I'm doing 2 meals a day, sometimes with a small snack if I get hungry.
I'm trying to pair IF with fewer carbs, but I'm still working on that4 -
Let's get started! My first round, and I desperately need motivation. Happy you all are here. @littlecinnamon I am also doing IF. The older I get, I have found this is the only way I am able to successfully kick weightloss into gear.
My goal for these 10 days is to hit 228.

Great to see a fellow IF'er @mlagioia ! I'm hoping this will continue to give me greater energy to power through my day and get my butt off the couch to workout more4 -
@mlagioia @littlecinnamon @kblanc14 So excited there are fellow IFs in this group! Although I've only been on 16:8 for around a month--I love it! Actually not as hungry overall anymore and have plenty of energy. Eat 11 a.m. - 7 pm., but typically break the fast closer to noon and finished by 6:30 for the day. Still eat my goal calories and remain in a calorie deficit. Just starting to up the activity again since the weather is nice. Need that natural vitamin D --walking on sunshine! Sheila
Fabulous to see you here @sklaw31 ! It's funny, when I try to do calorie restriction but eat any time of day, I'm hungrier. With IF, I feel I can control the hunger a bit more, and sometimes have to remind myself to eat Enjoy the vitamin D!!4 -

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.
- May: 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
Never give up! Never give in!
Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅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.

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.)

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.

05/27: 217.6 / I have to say this challenge really works for me. I have very little willpower by myself. Any number I record for these ten days would otherwise be higher if not for this group. My expectations are pretty high for this ten day period, just as a correction for the Covid-19 stress eating I have been doing. 😊

05/27 121.2 We went for a nice 4 mile walk in the woods this morning and I did a few minutes of planks before the walk while I was waiting for my husband and father in law to be ready. I’m thinking about doing some jump rope later too. Food was good yesterday and I’m happy I didn’t go up due to water weight because we had a kind of salty dinner last night. So, I was pleasantly surprised about that. 😊 It’s going to be another 80’s day today and I’m so happy about it! It’s only our second one of the season and I love the warm weather so much! The armer weather also helps me want to eat lighter too, so it’s a win all around.
I’m thinking about making pesto chicken and pasta for dinner tonight. I love basil, so I’m really looking forward to it!
05/28 121.4 This is interesting and one of the reasons I loved the idea of this challenge. It allows me to see how my weight fluctuates throughout my cycle. In the next couple of rounds I’ll have a solid length of daily weights to see the ups and downs over the course of time. I feel good but definitely feel a little more puffy today. The body is so interesting that way… Maybe frustrating at times too. Food and exercise were really on point yesterday too. I started my morning today with a pleasant 5 mile walk with my my father in law and did a mini body weight workout prior to the walk by myself. I’m excited to try some of the apple oat bread I made last night for breakfast this morning. I added some extra fiber to it too, so it will be even more filling for me. For 1/6 of the recipe it is only 225 calories and has 11 grams of fiber and 5.9 g protein. I’ll be having some cottage cheese or yogurt with it too to up the protein for my first meal.
Here’s the link if anyone is interested: https://thebakermama.com/recipes/healthy-flourless-fresh-apple-bread/
- I modified it by using 80 grams of dates instead of honey/maple syrup and added 40 grams of inulin powder (fiber) to it as well. Then, I baked it in 6 mini loaf pans for about 30 minutes I think it was.
Enjoy your day!5 -
