🌾🎍🌵🌴🌳🏖🎡⛱🌳🌴🌵🎍🌾

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.
August focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:

• 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 ✅
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Working on it. Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

I'm in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!

70 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

We used to walk 5 miles a day. Recovered from back surgery then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurt! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle.

The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

@quiltingjaine Thank you for posting the video on Carbs vs Net Carb. Very interesting. 🧐 I eat a lot of vegetables and seeds. Chia seeds and spinach are in a lot of my recipes. But I’m going to keep a closer watch on the Carbs. I’ll keep tracking 😊

08/05 - 145 - So, either my scale was off yesterday, it's off today, or I drank enough water yesterday to shed 2 lbs. Tomorrow will tell the tale.
08/06 - 145.5 - Yesterday's weight must have been a little of all three. I'll take it.

08/05: 158.2 No fun to see one more pound than expected. But it is what it is. Will not lament. Goals are no alcohol during the week, increase water, log everything and increase exercises (back pain minding)!Good logging everyone!!!

08/06: 157. 4 lbs Happy to see a drop! I know all about water drops, which could be this, but it motivates, so I'll take it!

Day, Weight, Comment
08/05 - 156.5
08/06 - 155.0 - Not surprised to be this high still, had a horrible time fighting hunger and dealing with a bit of DOMS. My run yesterday helped quite a bit, I'm sure, from keeping it going higher but definitely left my legs sore this morning. Also probably still some leftover bloat from the ice cream on Tuesday. That much dairy will last several days, even if I don't feel the uneasiness anymore. Likely to be a busy day today for work. Going to try to get in some type of activity today but unsure when or how at this point. Bossman, as sweet as he is, is very long winded and he's scheduling a meeting today to set up my goals (haven't done it yet because COVID and hoped to do in person). Its time for our mid-year performance review and we can't postpone any longer. Not sure when that'll be yet so not sure when I'll have a big enough break between meetings to fit it in. Probably do a walk or yoga to stretch out these sore legs a bit.

Previous Day's Comments

08/05 - Well hello there.... 3.5lb jump today? Must be sodium and dehydration. I drank a lot of water but I also moved a lot outside yesterday. It would've been difficult to keep up with my outside activity had I already been fully hydrated so I'm not surprised there. Also curious about scale because for the first time in the 4 yrs I've had it decided to start up in kg mode, not lbs mode. Took me a pretty long while to figure out how to get it back. May need new scale? Been reliable all this time so unsure.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 122 (round 54 for me ) I'm in for another round (of course!) – I need to just keep going! As always, thank you @GrandmaJackie such a champion particularly in these unprecedented & unsettled times, helping 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 for this round – I really need to take myself in hand and get a move on, these extra pounds are settling on me too easily and I don't like it; but I've only got myself to blame. So I need to try to lose 1.5 pounds ! Our bathroom is being refurbished now for the next 3 weeks; miles will be more difficult to achieve whilst the workmen are here, but I'll try to get an hour or so in before they arrive and then some in the evening around commitments with MIL care. I know I've said it before , but I need to get back to & stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep the 10 days binge free!
