👍🏼👍🏼 This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE. 👍🏼👍🏼7 -
So tired, got up early so I could go for my bike ride while it wasn't too windy. The lunch at the tearoom was very nice. I have no idea how many calories it was (there were lots of little bits, tea sandwiches etc), I found a entry for a "afternoon tea tower" for 1100 calories and just went with that. With the long cycle and small dinner (my stomach was a little unsettled) I am in the green.
Goals for these 10 days: no after dinner snacking, early to bed, strength training at least twice a week.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 123 (round 55 for me ) I'm in for another round (as always!) – 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 – Bathroom being refurbished and is almost finished before they move on to the downstairs cloakroom. Miles are more of a challenge to achieve whilst the workmen are here, but I'm trying to get an hour or so in before they arrive and then some in the evening around commitments with MIL care. Stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep the 10 days binge free again!End of round 69 134.2 lbsKeep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/15 131.8 wow !! Got on the scales 3 times to check, a new low this year. 5.66 miles walked yesterday, 100 calories in credit, all macros in green.
08/16 131.8 – happy this stuck. 4.55 miles walked yesterday, took 2 year old DGS out for the day, hence reduced mileage. 57 calories & 4g carbs over.
08/17 132.2 – happy with that considering walking mileage is really down with one thing and another. Walked only 2.31 miles yesterday; in fact didn't actually get out to walk, that was cleaning and pottering in the house and garden !! 249 calories in credit, 13g carbs over.
DGS still doing well, on 4 hourly obs now instead of hourly, pain relief IV & catheter removed – all looking positive.
08/18 132.2 - 7.14 miles walked yesterday, 642 calories in credit, all other macros in green.
08/19 131.8 - 7.08 miles walked yesterday, 352 calories in credit, 29g carbs over.
08/20 131.8 – no walking yesterday, sat at MIL whilst boiler replaced & then continual rain throughout the day , hence 171 calories, 79g carbs & 1g fat over . Lucky to retain number !
08/21 131.2 – wow ! Another new low not just for this year but since June last year!! 12.14 miles walked yesterday, 318 calories in credit, 25g fat over.
08/22 131.2 – 7.86 miles walked yesterday, 443 calories in credit.
08/23 132 - Took 2.5 year old DGS out yesterday so mileage was restricted to his activity; following him round on his balance bike, helping him climb over logs, fallen trees etc. but precious time with him. His baby brother still doing well & expected to be discharged from hospital before the end of the week.

🌾🎍🌵🌴🌳🏖🎡⛱🌳🌴🌵🎍🌾
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 Focus:Never give up! Never give in!- 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
Recent Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 123 🔹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 ✅ 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.

Birthday dinner, but enjoyed a walk in the evening.
16/8 130.0kg
Rediscovered podcasts, which I love walking and swimming to. Will go for a walk once the kids are in bed.
17/8 129.7kg
No walk today, just trying to catch up on the housework instead. I found individual portions of brie, which really helps avoid going overboard on it.
18/8 129.7kg
Started metformin today. Feeling really down on myself, but I know that this is what I need to do to deal with this.
19/8 129.6kg
My weekly trip into the Uni today. It is nice to go out and see other people, even if we have to stay distanced. It is built on a hill, so I also did eleventy billion steps.
20/8 129.4kg <-- Woo, mini goals!
Picked up a bad cough, so a quiet day today. Hopefully I can sleep okay tonight.
21/8 129.4kg
I put my favourite pasta sauce on my chicken for dinner. A easier way to reduce carbs and increase protein without feeling like I am missing out.
22/8 129.0kg
Still sick, but my COVID test came back negative. Not really hungry, so nowhere near my calorie budget. Got a bunch of sugar free drops to help me drink more water. Just trying to rest and keep hydrated.
23/8 128.4kg
Another quiet day. I know this big a drop is mainly due to not eating much yesterday, so expect to be a bit higher tomorrow.

Previous days08/15 DNW, came back from vacation today.
08/16 116.4 I’ll take it considering before vacation I was holding water from TOM and weighing in at 116.8. Food during vacation was pretty solid and I wasn’t too indulgent, but I also didn’t say no to anything. We ate out twice by the end of it, which wasn’t too bad. I feel good and got in a spin bike workout for the day! Have a good Sunday everyone!
08/17 116.4 It’s been a whirlwind of a day playing catch up at work after being gone for a week! Food was solid yesterday and today has been on point as well. We did a good soccer workout this morning and planning to go for a walk tomorrow morning! My brain is a little mushy at this point in the day and all I can think to say is that it’s CSA day today and I’m excited for that in a couple hours! Have a good night everyone!
08/18 116.2 We went for a really good 6ish mile walk this morning. I’m on my own tomorrow for my higher intensity workout, so I’m planning a yard workout incorporating jump rope, burpees, some soccer drills, body weight exercises like push-ups and lunges, mountain climbers and all sorts of fun stuff.
The CSA pick up was full of greens last night along with a zucchini, a pepper, heirloom cherry tomatoes, and purple radishes. Then for fruit we got a dozen donut peaches, two watermelon, a cantaloupe, and honeydew. I felt like I hit the jackpot for fruit!
Dinner was a little salty last night because I made a Thai style greens recipe which had a bunch of stems chopped up small from swiss chard, spigariello, Ethiopian kale, and one other green’s stems I think. Then, I added shredded collard greens. The sauce used coconut oil, coconut milk, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, chilies, lime juice and I added some tamari because I didn’t want to use as much fish sauce as the recipe called for. I thought it came out pretty good, my husband tolerated it lol (he doesn’t care for cooked greens) so he ate 25% of it and I ate the other 75% of it. For protein I scrambled some hamburger and we topped it with siracha. I think we’re having roasted chicken for dinner tonight with potatoes and beets!
08/19 115.2 Started my day with a HIIT/soccer style workout and torched at least 400ish calories. Last night’s dinner was grilled chicken leg quarters with roasted beets and sweet potatoes. Yumm! Today’s breakfast will be a large amount of honeydew melon, cantaloupe, maybe a peach, and the last granola bar (calorie dense bar I made for hiking coming in at 400 kcals) that I made for our trip last week. My snack will be oatmeal with peaches and dinner will be mushroom and spinach ravioli with salad and heirloom cherry tomatoes.
Enjoy your day!
08/20 115.6 Went for a 6ish mile walk this morning. Realized that my hips are really tight from my workout yesterday and need to stretch later today. We ended up getting Chipotle takeout for dinner last night but I was a lot more conscious of what I ordered last night and didn’t completely decimate myself with sodium. I also trimmed off about 200 calories by planning it out with their nutrition calculator. I clocked in at like 700ish calories instead of the 900-1,000 calorie bowl I got last time. So I consider that a bit of a win for me. I’m not sure what is on the agenda tonight for dinner but I’m looking forward to having yogurt, fruit, and granola for breakfast! It’s so crazy that after a week or so of not having yogurt, I was actually craving it. Luckily we got a food order this morning, so I have some waiting for me in the fridge now 😊.
08/21 115.4 We did a nice soccer workout this morning. Food was solid yesterday. It will be my typical yogurt and granola for breakfast and I’m thinking maybe tacos for dinner or a meat sauce with ravioli for dinner tonight. I’m not too sure about it all. Have a good day and happy Friday!
08/22 115.4 My husband and I went for a quick walk this morning (almost a mile and a half), then when we got home I jumped on the spin bike for a half hour class via Youtube. I continued riding for another 20 minutes afterwards at a slower pace while watching a Netflix show.
I finally got my “proof of Canadian citizenship application” paperwork completed and got that in the mail. It’s taken months to gather all the documents and find the time to fill everything out/make sure I wasn’t forgetting anything. So, that feels great to have it done! My dad is a Canadian citizen and hopefully I’m able to officially get mine. (He moved down here from New Brunswick in the 60’s.) I’m submitting the application to give us another option if any sort of opportunities pop up. The rest of today will be a lazy one. Later tonight we’re getting Thai takeout with my inlaws and playing a few games before my mother in law goes in for surgery this coming Tuesday. For Thai food, I plan on getting a ginger chicken dish with lots of veggies and a little bit of rice. Have a good rest of the day!
08/23 117.2 Hello salt from Thai food. The crazy part is that it didn’t even taste that salty. I’ll be curious to see what happens tomorrow. I ended up having 1 ½ -1 ¾ cups of brown rice (was planning less but I ended up wanting more) to go along with the chicken and veggies. Today, I plan on eating a lot of melon because we have a lot left from our CSA, and tomorrow we get more produce. Luckily, we don’t have too much left for veggies. So… it will be more melon, yogurt, and granola for breakfast. Dinner will be thin crust pizza with tomato, basil, eggplant, bell pepper, and fresh mozzarella. I might try grilling it because it’s one of those pre-made crusts that are shelf-stable, so it should be sturdy enough for the grill.

No walk today, just trying to catch up on the housework instead. I found individual portions of brie, which really helps avoid going overboard on it.

My weekly trip into the Uni today. It is nice to go out and see other people, even if we have to stay distanced. It is built on a hill, so I also did eleventy billion steps.

Picked up a bad cough, so a quiet day today. Hopefully I can sleep okay tonight.

I put my favourite pasta sauce on my chicken for dinner. A easier way to reduce carbs and increase protein without feeling like I am missing out.

Still sick, but my COVID test came back negative. Not really hungry, so nowhere near my calorie budget. Got a bunch of sugar free drops to help me drink more water. Just trying to rest and keep hydrated.

Another quiet day. I know this big a drop is mainly due to not eating much yesterday, so expect to be a bit higher tomorrow.

08/16–178.2 I am having such a hard time getting/keeping my head in the game. Hopefully I will be able to make some progress with my habits this round. If I do that, the weight loss always follows. I’m in a bit of a funk right now,so falling back to comfort foods has not been helpful.
08/17–177.6 Got in a nice long walk and made better choices. Baby steps.
08/18–178.2 Walked, so that’s three days in a row.
08/19–178.2 Walked last night but needed to do a better job with intake.
08/20–178.2
08/21–178.2
08/22–178.4 I did better at work yesterday about moving around more. Hit the stairs a few times, walked up and down the hall a little, used my standing desk, too. In light of my new work situation, I am going to have to be intentional about these things. It’s easy to get drug down into the abyss of never-ending work that virtual learning is becoming and never lift my head out of my work. My intake wasn’t bad yesterday, but the level of movement during my day has to be addressed. God, I miss school as it used to be!!!
08/23–178.2 Did MUCH better with what I ate yesterday and with movement, but I’m still stuck. I did my meal planning for this week though and bought the groceries. Will use today to meal prep, so hopefully next round will be better.

Round 123
Month/Day: Weight / Comment
08/15: 207.4
08/16: 207.8 / The last couple days are pop-ups from the last day of last round. I can’t imagine why. :-p What is so bad about two days in a row with big messy cheese burgers for lunch. Friday’s was at a high-end gourmet restaurant for a work meeting. Saturday’s was at a local yocal dive after a morning of fishing with a friend. Both were delicious. Then last night, dinner out with some friends. I guess I should be happy I am only this heavy.
Glad to be back at it again this round.
08/17: 207.2 / I would call this a victory. For the weekend, not bad.
08/18: 207.8 / Anniversary today! 41 years with DW! For some of you, yes that means I am old enough to be your father. But, not too old to keep learning. Dinner out today will probably make some waves tomorrow on the ten-day chart.
BTW, with four days in a row with an identical third digit (7) I feel out of place. I jump around so much this never happens. Strangely, my last two ten-day averages have that same digit.
08/19: 206.6 / Ok, I like this “wave.” We went out for lunch yesterday instead of out for the evening meal. Made a good choice or two. Had a short bike ride to pick up our CSA (we have one too @kblanc14 !) and a walk around the block at dusk.
08/20: 205.4 / It’s low tide. High tide is coming, but maybe not as high. I am trying to get low tide lower and high tide lower.
08/21: 207.8 / H2O
08/22: 207.8 / lucky 7
08/23: 207.6 / I think my bod is trying to tell me it likes 207. My mind doesn’t mind it either as a place to hover. But, it is too close to 210 and I want to maintain just a hair lower than this. In fact as stated above, I want to touch 199, just to say I did.
I am thinking that a realistic maintenance goal for me needs to be a seven to ten pound range, but no greater than 210.
NSV: XL shirts look way too baggy on me now. I just purchased a few new shirts for work, size L.

08/15 - 235 - Ready for 2nd round of being back on track and checking in daily! Don’t worry about the little bump up on the scale.
08/16 - 234.5 - My son lost 80 lbs and his wife 50 since February. We had dinner at their house last night. Never thought I would eat cheesecake and take more pieces home on a diet. My first time trying Keto and finding it hard to mentally adjust monitoring low carbs instead of low fat.
08/17 - 234.4 - My weekly weigh in on Monday! Down 4 lbs from last week. Calories have been high over the weekend though I’m on target for the net carbs. Need to work on getting my total calorie intake lower.
08/18 - 233.4 - 2 weeks alcohol free which is a big accomplishment for me
08/19 - 233.4 - Ready for a new day and repeat yesterday's calorie and carb success! Need to figure out how/when to get more exercise today. I only made it 1 mile this morning and our dog got sick. Then had to take the car in for a recall. Soooooo No excuses! I just need to do it … heat or no heat! Went through the pantry and tossed everything that is not friendly LOL. We don't need that battle when trying to select meals or snacks!
08/20 - 233.5 - Goal today is to plan meals for the next week and shop for those groceries!
08/21 - 232.4 - If I slip up once and jump back into good habits the next hour instead of next day or waiting till Monday I won’t be out of control all weekend. Telling myself wouldn’t it be great to wake up Monday morning knowing I was in control all weekend! Note to Self: It’s worth it. Just do it!
08/22 - 232 - I took yesterday off from exercising and just relaxed. But I did talk DH into a 1 mile stroll with the dog after dinner … beautiful evening. Today I’ll be back to my morning 3 mile walk + biking on my recumbent inside.
08/23 - 231.5 Nice seeing a drop though it might be because I slept in. Walked 4.5 miles yesterday but then no bike because we went to help my sister with her internet. Then birthday dinner celebration for my SIL. Made a low carb low sugar blackberry cobbler … DH & I used Keto ice cream and served Bluebell to our SIL.5 -

08/23 - 155.0 - It is okie-dokie, I knew that was coming. Yesterday was a weird day for me -- forgot to weigh, ignored my water bottle even though I was thirsty for some reason. I think I got so sick of the taste of plain water I couldn't bring myself to it but I'm back to drinking it this am. Was outside and sweating like crazy with no source of water in the afternoon and couldn't catch up once home. Today should be calm and I'll be focusing on water intake and light meals. Hopefully it'll drop back down tomorrow if I'm diligent. I might try for a walk once my fitbit is charged and no plans come up.
08/24
Previous Day's Comments08/15 - Holy DOMS am I sore! I nearly fell out of bed and then I had to use to disabled bar things by my toilet to be able to get down to it without collapsing or crying from soreness. I suppose today is my rest day and I'll be doing some stretching. Didn't hit my step goal yesterday but my legs huuuurt and I gave myself some grace. Goal will be to hit my steps and move some of this soreness out of my system today.
08/16 - I really have no idea where this came from. I had a very small breakfast, a few bites of a charcuterie board fam threw together, and 2 small ribs with some cooked spinach. And a crunch bar for lunch because it was that or nothing and I was getting nauseous. Probably not enough water but couldn't keep up - working outside in a heat advisory. Still drank a lot more water than I normally would if I were inside during the day. DOMS are still around pretty bad so working on that today again.
08/16 - Working my way down now. Went swimming to beat the heat yesterday and tried to actually do something to raise my heart rate a little while I was in the pool. Not a huge place, especially with the kids splashing around and having fun, but underwater swimming helped me with that a bit. Had to go get bloodwork and urine test for my appt on Wednesday with the VA and boy am I hungry now. Going to try a yoga workout later today once I get some food and more water in me to make up for it. Not a lot of blood, but enough I don't want to overdo it. Goal is to meet step goal again. Last few days, I've barely made it to my 7225 goal but today I'm going for 8000 steps. Legs still quite sore from leg day on Friday and I need to get that worked out anyway, a nice walk should help.
08/17 - I don't know... I really don't know. I wasn't as active yesterday because work got really crazy. Food wasn't terrible -- I had a grilled chicken caesar salad for lunch and a small bit of leftovers for dinner. Could've drank more water but even that wasn't horrible. I'm still a little sore but nothing like the previous days so that's dropping off. Whyyyyy, body, are you torturing me? Guess that's the motivation I really need to go work out this morning, even though I was debating not doing it because I'm tired. Wake up call, much?
08/18 - So confused with my body... Not sure where this came from. I figured after dinner (I made my favorite meal from home) I had gained or at least maintained my higher weight. So confused. Ran with the pup yesterday morning (with walking warmup, cooldown, and a short break we went 0.71mi) then I took her for a nice walk after dinner to reach my step goal. Today I think Fam is doing arms this morning so I'm going to join her if I can hurry up and wake up enough to function.
08/19 - Not holding my breath on that one. Fasted until about 130 and ate out in San Antonio (had to drive fam there to pick up jeep parts so she can be mobile. Dinner may not be much, if anything at all, because of how filling the food was and how late lunch was. No workout today due to an early start getting to San A in time for a WebEx meeting (not ideal to have a video call while being tossed around on construction roads haha!) Definitely in need of water the rest of the day and hopefully it'll keep me satiated enough through dinner so I don't overdo it if I do end up eating.

08/21 - I did not expect that, especially feeling as heavy as I do right now. I didn't drink anything but water from the time of posting until I went to bed. I did have a tiny slice of pizza (it took 2 of my normal bite sizes to finish it off) I wasn't hungry for much else, honestly. Doing yoga at about 9 with Fam so I may go for a nice walk around the neighborhood after I replenish my lifeblood (drink my coffee) before walking over to hers. As long as everyone's work stays calm enough, we all plan to (safely) walk mainstreet before too many tourists arrive for the weekend.
