Just Give Me 10 Days ~ Round 128

@SModa61 Look at what foods you have eaten in the past several days rather than calories. You could be reacting to one of them, causing the weight fluctuations. I know I react poorly to grains so as much as possible, I avoid them.
@CamandJarvis Word is $7 a month now??? When I got the last computer, I paid a flat rate for Home Office, or something like that. I need a new laptop so hope that will transfer!

@_JeffreyD_ My husband used to fish with a friend in southern Illinois, they caught Crappie (up to 2#) and catfish (yuck!) Apparently you need to go to the strip pits down there! LOL 😝
@kalchthaleri Perhaps look at your macros. Bananas have lots of sugar/carbs and the more ripe they are the higher they are. Just saying explore and learn how your body reacts. Mine takes 2-3 days
@SheilaBoneham LOL This is your conscience speaking Don’t you have a deadline looming?2 -

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.

10/4 112.0 WHOA! I have no idea! Delayed reaction to the 42 hour fast last week? I had hardly eaten today and wasn’t hungry but I ate something and now I’m miserable. I slept about an hour longer than usual which made me run late for breakfast with neighbors, the coffee cake I was making wasn’t done. Oh well! AF
10/5 115.5 LOL I thought that scale was crazy yesterday. Guess I was right! It’s all good! DH also had odd weigh ins. I think the scale was messing with us! AF Gym 351 cal7 -

@_JeffreyD_
Enjoy your fishing trip! Crappie are fun to catch & great to eat too. I still remember many many years ago my "future" husband (married 37 years) took me fishing in Louisiana for crappie/bream fishing. I was use to saltwater fishing (speckled trout, redfish and flounder). Well my first catch I set the hook ... and the fish went flying over to the water on the other side of the boat. That fish was probably like what the heck! 🎣 Still remember that day LOL

Well, when I bought it through the app store, it only allowed it monthly and it was about $6.89/month (so I rounded). I had to buy so I could update my resume, but once I got the job, I canceled! No reason to spend if I don't touch it.
Might have to try the google docs again. Last time I tried to open it on my phone, it wouldn't let me edit, just copy what was already there. Maybe the recent update I had fixed that issue. Doesn't hurt to try!3 -
@quiltingjaine thank you for your thoughts! I just meant the drop is not real, I didn't loose 1.5 kg over night. But yes I will take it and continue from it 🤠5

Round 128

Height: 5’ 4”
SW: 163
CW: 150.4
GW: 145
UGW: 130
GW for this round: 148
Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
10/04 - 150.4 - Continuing to hold steady from the end of the last round. Feeling great - I chopped my hair off last night and I don’t think I did that bad of a job! Got out for a run this morning and will be meal prepping this afternoon.
10/05 - 151.0 - The only reason I can think of for this gain is water weight - so hopefully I’ve got a whoosh coming in my future! I ran about 2 miles yesterday, then did a 3+ mile family hike (pushing 70+ lbs of kids and stroller), so I know I came in under calories since I didn’t eat differently from usual. I did my regular workout this morning and will track carefully this week.
10/06 - 150.4 - And back down again. Pretty tired this morning- feeling very heavy and low on energy. I took the kids out to a nearby garden this morning and let them run and play - really hoping that means a good nap for the toddler and an easier afternoon.

October 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 128 🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare

That's a WIN in my book!

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.

So very happy that this challenge is still going strong! The last time I did this was years ago and it worked so well. I stopped for a variety of reasons but am excited to be back!!
I anticipate some quick weight loss in #s this first week since I am looking to cut out (again) major foods that sincerely do not agree well with my body and leave me swollen and generally feeling unwell.
Goal: 5lbs - not sure if that’s too ambitious, but we will see. I have a lot of deflating to do !!
Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 - 178.5 so swollen today, looking forward to progress.
10/05 - 176.5 - starting the process to find my real current weight, usually takes a day or two to get rid of swelling
10/06 - 173.5 - I technically hit my goal but in all honesty I got food poisoning yesterday.. I expect an increase in a few days lol

Ready for round 128
SW 294
GW 199
CW 234.8
My goal for this round is to lose 2.8lbs by the end of the round. Good luck to all.
10/4. I weighed in at 232.4, so i've made a big jump to hitting my goal. Walked 24k steps today and im doing great on food, and tracking. Now, I'm gonna do a bit of weight lifting and watch some sports. Have a great night, and good luck all.
10/5 Another great day. I weighed in at 231.7, so i made it! I am no longer obese, just overweight. I ate well, logged everything, and got 25k steps in. I even got into a Large tee shirt for the first time in years. The only downside us, i'm quarantined until my covid test gets back in 48-72 hrs. I dont have symptoms, so i get 2-3 days of more alone time. Tomorrow i think i'll make chili. I have some trinadad scorpion peppers that are supposed to be hotter than molten steel, so we will see how that goes. Anyway, good luck all. Have a great night. I have to go do the dishes. MIKE
10/6. Had a great day. 24k steps, just over 1200 calories, and weighed in at 229.7 lbs, so i have already beat my goal with 7 more days to go. Had a 3300 calorie deficit today, so tomorrow is shaping up well. Have a wonderful night all, and lets see what tomorrow brings. MIKE.

Round 128 SW: 266.8
10/4: 267
10/5: 266.4 ~ I’m going to start taking waist measurements on the weekends. I’m tired of not seeing my weight really change and having no other measurements to check if I’m making progress. I always aim to keep things as simple as possible or I know I won’t follow through, which is why I’m doing just my waist measurement and not my whole body.

Pretty good day. My garment watch is giving me fits. I've been concentrating on doing hills on my bike, so it would be nice to know my elevation gain. For my ride this morning it said I went from 5500 ft (which is about 1000 ft higher than where I live) to 22000 ft. Which would have been a neat trick if correct.

I post from my laptop. I have a continually open word file that has my evolving posts (in 4 challenges ATM). I'm sure there is a better way.
I do this to and then copy and paste into the challenge each day after I've updated.
Me too. And, my word document is stored in "the cloud" so I can get at it from my laptop or my phone.
Oooh, must explore the "cloud", this is something that has gone above my head!!! (No pun intended!!) But when I am going to be away from my laptop, I e-mail a copy of the up to date document to my 'phone, being able to access it from anywhere would be more convenient. Thanks for planting that thought.3 -
JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 126 (round 58 for me ) I'm in for another round – I need it! 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 !
Challenge for this round will be the start of our fortnight's holiday 19th onwards, but goal for this round – to lose a pound. Stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keep the 10 days binge free again, it makes such a difference!End of round 69 134.2 lbsKeep calm – we're all in this together!

10/04 133.8 - no structured walking yesterday due to travelling back home and persistent train ?, hence eating yesterday was at maintenance level. Really hoping this rain stops soon ,?.
10/05 133.2 - 9.55 miles walked yesterday, 774 calories in credit, all macros in green. Feeling refreshed after holiday and ready to push on.
10/06 133.2 – 6.26 miles walked yesterday (struggling to get miles in with the rain!) 28 calories in credit but 15g carbs over.
10/07 133.6 - 11.08 miles walked yesterday, so pleased the rain held off during the morning. 869 calories in credit, all macros in green.

Ugh, I wish I could save in something like the cloud to get access on both devices! That'd make it so much easier. Doesn't help I don't have anything to use on my laptop. I'm too cheap to pay $7/month for Microsoft Word just for this challenge haha! For now, I just take notes on my Libra weight app and MFP food diary and quote myself on here.
I too am too much of a scrooge to pay for Word! I use Openoffice Writer, it's free to download from the web - and does the same thing as some of the Microsoft programmes - as well as word documents there are spreadsheets that work like Excel as well as presentations, databases etc.
My SIL who is extremely computer savvy advised me to use this when I was disappointed that my new laptop 3 years ago did not come with free Microsoft programmes!!5 -

At the end of last round I had a massive fluctuation down on my final day, which of course screws up my numbers for this round, so I'm aiming to get to that number again, but properly this time.

10/04 - 72.8
10/05 - 73.0 - Hmmm. It's been a odd few days. I found myself falling back into old habits, but I have been logging, and honestly it's not quite as bad a picture as I thought it was. My few 'days of weakness' have still left me with a week's deficit averaging at 219kcal per day. While it's not as aggressive as I'd like, I honestly thought I'd just had an unintentional maintenance week, so having over 200kcals per day deficit is an amazing win for me. But on that note I think I'm going to book myself a maintenance week in October (maybe next week). I always find them helpful when logging is getting me down a bit. Besides, I always find it amazing how much more I can eat when I don't have to carve out a deficit for myself. Give me hope for when I do reach my goal weight for maintenance.
10/06 - 72.6 - Oh I don't know anymore, I'm tired. Probably a fluctuation down. Lazy logging yesterday. And quite a lot of chocolate. I have booked next week for maintenance. I definitely think I need it.
10/07 - 72.6 - Looks like I'm going to be milling around this number for a little longer, I can deal with that. Unfortunately my fitbit ran out of battery yesterday so apparently I went over my maintenance. I don't think I did really as the number it gives me when it's not on my wrist is ~400kcals lower than my average daily burn. Not that I think yesterday was an average as I stayed in the office all day and didn't wander out at lunchtime, but still. Eating was good, had what felt like a very indulgent dinner, but turned out to be a nice moderate sum of calories. If I'd held off from the yoghurt for dessert then I would've been under calories for the day, even without any extras from exercise. Even so, good day all in all. Left overs for lunch today.

Round 128 – starting weight 147.2
10/04 – 146.6 Good morning. Tracking going fine, and I joined three other October challenges overlapping this on. Two are just pushing exercise, while the third is a daily accountability of tracking, < target calories, and over 20 min exercise. Staying under my target calorie number AND burning 200+ calories a day is becoming hard rapidly. I am hungry all the time. Down 1.8 lb in 3 days, and 6.4 lb in just under 3 weeks. I am happy with the loses, but I need sustainable as well. I may have to redefine what is “staying under goal calories”.
10/05 – 147.2 Weight makes more sense for 3 weeks with a total of -5.8. Still hoping to end the challenge between 145.8 and 145.2.
10/06 – 147.4 Another up, exercise and tracking does not predict this, Continue with watchful waiting.
10/07 – 146.6 Full circle, back to the 146.6. At least this time, it is closer to logical. (Note: hoping for 144 for 59th bday on 10/26)

So very happy that this challenge is still going strong! The last time I did this was years ago and it worked so well. I stopped for a variety of reasons but am excited to be back!!
I anticipate some quick weight loss in #s this first week since I am looking to cut out (again) major foods that sincerely do not agree well with my body and leave me swollen and generally feeling unwell.
Goal: 5lbs - not sure if that’s too ambitious, but we will see. I have a lot of deflating to do !!
Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 - 178.5 so swollen today, looking forward to progress.
10/05 - 176.5 - starting the process to find my real current weight, usually takes a day or two to get rid of swelling
10/06 - 173.5 - I technically hit my goal but in all honesty I got food poisoning yesterday.. I expect an increase in a few days lol
10/07 - 175.5 - seems more accurate .. finally ate food last night 👍
