Birthday dinner, but enjoyed a walk in the evening.

Rediscovered podcasts, which I love walking and swimming to. Will go for a walk once the kids are in bed.
08/17 129.7kg
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.
08/18 129.7kg
Started metformin today. Feeling really down on myself, but I know that this is what I need to do to deal with this.
08/19 129.6kg
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.

08/19 - 154.8 - 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.

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?

08/15 DNW. Camping this weekend. I haven't done a horrible job but I've definitely had a few things I wouldn't normally while trying to lose weight. It's ok, lake calories dont count 😁
08/16 198.8 That's ok! I knew it would go up a little, I'm just happy I'm still in Onederland. Back at it today. Happy sunday!
08/17 197.8 Down a little I got a compliment yesterday about losing weight. I'm going to use that as fuel to keep going! Happy Monday, hope you all have a great week!
08/18 196.6 Today is my sons birthday! We always let them pick what they would like for dinner on their birthdays and he chose my favorite barbeque restaurant. I plan to make good choices, but it's going to be hard!
08/19 196.2 I was able to stay under my calorie goal yesterday. I didn't get in enough water so my goal today is make sure I do. I have a long drive this morning, so I see many pit stops in my future 😄 Happy hump day!

8/16 197.6 lots of salt Friday night and Saturday. Also extra desserts both nights too. Back to the grind
8/17 197.8 started the day strong with a good workout. Still had a lot of salt yesterday, and too many sweets, but weekdays are better for me to control anyway.
8/18 198.2 meh. Yesterday was so so. Above my calorie goal, extra sodium that's making me puffy. Need to drink more water today.
8/19 198.2 I drank a bit more water yesterday, which was great. I'm aimimg for 2 days of activity followed by 1 rest day, so yesterday was off. That said, I wish I got more steps in. Will be making today a great day!

8/17 156.2 OMG. I worked my butt off this weekend. Hiked a tough 7 miles and rode a ton. Why am I up so much? I ate quite a bit, but I didn't gorge... I know I'm retaining water. I've noticed anytime I have a really tough workout day or weekend, I'm unusually up for a day or two before it comes back off. But I'm not counting on that and I've been on a slow creep up. Tracking today.
8/18 155 I adjusted my goal to lose 1lb a week and I can tell I have been eating too much, because yesterday felt very... light food wise. I like eating more. I need to find a way to enjoy the much lighter sustainable amount for the long term, not just while I'm in a loss or I'm going to yo-yo these 10 lbs forever. Ran this morning. I'll ride this afternoon.
8/19 153.2 Good. Sure it'll still bounce around. Ran this morning. I'll try to get a ride in, but I have a busy day.8 -

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.
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.

I’m a 5’ 8”, 45 yo Mom of 2 young ones. The lockdown had me squeaking toward 200, so I knew I had to start taking better care of myself!
Original SW: 196.2 lb (6/11/20)
GOAL Weight: 165 lb
Total weight loss to date: 13.7 lb
17.5lb to go!
R121: -3.1 lb✔️
R122: -1 lb ✔️
Round 123 SW: 182.5 (on 8/14/20)
08/15 – 183.0 – My husband and I had a day off from our food tracking and got take-out lunch. The rest of the day we weren’t very hungry, so half a pound doesn’t seem too bad.
08/16 – 183.0 – Staying stable. It looks like 183 is my current weight “speed bump.” I just need to be diligent to be able to make it over the speed bump and back down.
08/17 – 182.7 – Trying to be gentler on myself and make sure I’m not treating this as a race to the finish line. Consistent, reasonable effort is all that in needed.
08/18 – 181.9 – I have a huge work project keeping me at my desk more this week, so there is less exercise, but I’m still be diligent about logging my food.

15/8 13st 6lb (188lb) -3lb I always have the day off on a saturday, so will see what the scales say tomorrow.
16/8 13st 5.5lb (187.5lb) -1/2lb Feeling good today. I did better yesterday than I thought, even with having a day off, Only going a few cals over my limit.😊
17/8 13st 5.25lb (187.25lb) -1/4lb tough day today. I tend to want to eat when my pain is bad. I've given in a little but hopefully it wont be to bad.😞
18/8 13st 5lb (187lb) -1/4lb I've not started fantastically with an egg and bacon sandwich. (I had bacon that needed eating and it would be criminal to through it away.) I guess today will be my cheat day. 🤣🤣
19/8 13st 5.25lb (187.25lb) +1/4lb. I am not thrilled with today's weigh in although it's hardly surprising after yesterday. Oh well,🤷🏻♀️ Today seems to be going well so onwards and upwards.

Been distracted this round so tried to catch up on my 10-day fit fam posts this a.m.
@katmix I used to do Sanstone's Walk-away the pounds all the time. Great workout!
@lalabank No harm done by treating yourself--still only 1 oz away from the 150's! I can gain 2 oz inhaling as I drive by McDonalds!
@Mondowefte ..."eleventy billion"--that is a lot of steps! Thanks for making me smile!
@fitby44 look at you owning Onederland. You are doing great!
@rlaskey2 I call muscle/water from your workouts that caused you to bounce. Expect a "whoosh" soon!
WELCOME @wanderersarian You will LOVE this group and we will love you!
@MomLarisa I don't like to feel hungry so when I struggle I eat things that tide me over to the next meal that are low cal yet filling like watermelon or crunchy like baby carrots--or even let a caramel melt in my mouth. I rarely drink soda but on a whim, I bought sparkling water yesterday, natural raspberry flavor no sweeteners, no sodium, no calories--and those little bubbles seemed to help me feel full--then I burped.6 -
@frida001 - hope you had a wonderful birthday and got to do something really nice. Hope you have a good year ahead.
@_JeffreyD_ happy anniversary to what you must be - a lovely couple, here's another year for you both.3 -
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!

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.

08/19 147.2 I haven't been here since round 106! Back in March. In related news, I went into strict quarantine in March (and still haven't left the house more than 3 times!) and gained TWENTY POUNDS. In 5 months! I've attached two pictures that tell the story: you can see that I had a nice downward trend line until March, and then whoosh! Up it went!
As you can see, I have been stress-eating my way through the pandemic and my hard-earned maintenance weight of 127 lbs became less and less important to me as time went on.
Well, enough time has gone on, and I've decided to prioritize myself again. Accountability in this wonderful group, daily weighing, and the most road-tested ingredient of my previous success:PATIENCE . I am loving seeing all of the encouraging posts (this is such a positive corner of the internet!), and I'm looking forward to rooting for all of your success!

8/15 - 182.8 - 1702 ☹️ - night time popcorn and ice cream ☹️
How did I get into this nighttime snacking habit? Aaaack! My ideal this round is no snacks after dinner; my primary goal is, if I must snack, make it one serving of air-popped popcorn. That would still cut calories and I can work on the popcorn monster later. One habit at a time, right?
8/16 - 184 🤯- 1944 😡
WTH is wrong with me? I had a big lunch, reasonable dinner, and still snacked last night. I wasn’t hungry, just wanted the cozy comfort. My calories have been above my goal for 5 days. Just pitiful. Well, I’m boiling eggs for salmon-egg-guacamole salad for lunch, and I’m going to ask DH to ask me “do you really want that?” if/when I head for the kitchen. Maybe I need one of those oink oink piggies on the fridge and cupboard doors! I really am disappointed in myself. I think it’s partly the stress of our crazy times, but gaining back weight I worked hard to lose doesn’t help. I don’t need hugs, I need a kick in the pants!
8/17 - 183 😐 - 1641 😐 - snack 🍿+ whole-grain English muffin & almond butter
I did a little better yesterday. I did spend calories digging turf out of hard clay, and was hungry last night, but stuck to air-popped popcorn and muffin/almond butter, so healthy snacks and no ice cream. I’m aiming for just popcorn. Calories were only slightly over my goal for the round, so that’s an improvement. More garden labor today! Have a great Monday, my friends!
8/18 - 182.6 🙂 - 1306 😁 - snack 🍿+ 1/2 oz aged Havarti
Better!
8/19 - 182.2 🙂 - 1246 😁 - snack 🍿
We are having a string of gorgeous days here. I’m expanding more garden beds and replacing some of the few introduced plant species I have with natives. Very satisfying! Lots of wildlife! And it keeps my mind off food for myself. 🦋🐝🐞

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!7 -

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!
@_JeffreyD_ Nice! It's our first season with one and we are hooked! I always wanted one, but the whole quarantine situation made us take the plunge. I even heard my husband say as we were talking about next summer he mentioned us still having the CSA, so I'm glad he's thinking about it that way!6
