    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.

    12/13 118.0 Virtual sew day with the ladies
    12/14 119.0 Sat in a chair all day yesterday but got SOOO much accomplished. Sewed blocks into rows for quilt top started 18 months ago, sewed together blocks for a wall hanging after figuring out how to compensate for one really wrong size block, crocheted some on a shawl started over a year ago. See a pattern here? I feel good about what I did and the soup I made myself was delish and within my macros. Did not drink enough water AND got up 3 times during the night because I was thirsty and needed to pee! Push water today!!!
    12/15 117.5 Still didn’t drink more than 2.5 qts of water. I only count plain or sparkling water - not coffee or seltzer/vodka.
    12/16 117.5 Awake at 4:40AM with headache, gave up and got up, it’s finally getting better. Darn arthritis!
    12/17 117.5 Husband has eye exam this afternoon so I will walk around Walmart while he’s there.
    12/18 119.0 Easily explained in 2 words - Great Greek. Didn’t go to Walmart but walked with neighbor for a short distance. She has many health issues and shutdown has really had a negative effect on her. Going to lunch with her today after DH & I donate a unit of blood.
    12/19 119.5 What a disaster at the blood bank! We had appointments for 12:15 and over an hour after that they hadn’t started the collection. We left to meet the neighbor for our lunch reservation in what turned out to be a smoke filled bar. We went elsewhere. I can’t believe there are only 3 more days this round! Where does the time go???2k2j3xkbkzkr.jpeg
    MAYBE this round I’ll move.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/12 …..204.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
    12/13 …..203.2 ….. A nice little drop to start this round. I stuck to low calorie and carb yesterday until the peanut butter toast last night (just too hungry). However, due to a diligent day, my calories remained low and my carbs were mid-range. It helped. Good luck everyone this round!

    12/14 …..203.4 ….. I would love to call this a normal fluctuation but….. well, my meals were on track but the Christmas goodies people share got to me a bit too much.

    12/15 …..205.0 ….. I deserve this, however, bad days do not define me. Today will be a better day.

    12/16 …..205.0 ….. Very good meal planning but snacks got me again. Also, little to urine output. Retaining water for sure!

    12/17 …..205.2 ….. I just couldn’t seem to get full yesterday. I think my choices for my meals and snacks may have been too many empty calories.

    12/18 …..205.0 ….. Very late entry because I traveled today for Christmas shopping and just got home a short bit ago. Worried about the scale a bit for in the morning now. And I have not even started baking yet.

    12/19 …..205.4 ….. I expected it to be much higher after the all day (and night) travel yesterday so I am pleasantly surprised. I hope it doesn’t “catch up” with me over the next couple of days. Snow here today. Cold but absolutely beautiful in my rural setting.

    12/20 …..xxxxx …..

    12/22 …..xxxxx …..

    My goal is to Dance for 20 minutes per day to increase my calorie burn.

    Dec 01 – Danced 20 minutes and my was it harder than last time!
    Dec 02 – Danced my heart out for 20 minutes.
    Dec 03 – No dancing. Paperwork and wrapping presents.
    Dec 04 – Danced for 20 minutes to mostly classic rock.
    Dec 05 – Danced for about 22 minutes to a nice mix of music.
    Dec 06 – Lots of movement but no dancing due to workmen here all day and continued unpacking.
    Dec 07 – More workers here and no dancing. However, if you count going up and down stairs for hours as exercise, I got in my fair share!
    Dec 08 – Danced about 8 minutes. Better than nothing I suppose.
    Dec 09 – 20 minutes of dancing and it knocked the wind out of me. Slower songs next time until I get used to it again!
    Dec 10 – No dancing. All working around the house and sitting…sitting…sitting while shopping online. No stores in my rural area!
    Dec 11 – Danced 20 minutes and even sang to the songs!
    Dec 12 – No Dancing. Not enough movement. Online shopping again!
    Dec 13 – Danced for about 14 minutes.
    Dec 14 – I didn’t dance. A friend was over until very late last night who ran errands with me all day. Donuts & coffee did not help the scale.
    Dec15 – Danced about 12 minutes. But I got a LOT of unpacking and orgainizing done. And I am all caught up on the wrapping until Amazon visits me tomorrow.
    Dec 16 – No Dancing. Went on errands and then my friend came over.
    Dec 17 – 20 minutes of dancing.
    Dec 18 – No dancing. All travel and car sitting yesterday until almost midnight!

    I am going to try something different this round. I thought that a daily weigh-in was required but then I noticed that some people don't weigh when they go away and/or some times a day or two is missed, intentionally or unintentionally, so I figure it is okay!
    I have the honor of officiating at a wedding (socially distanced, 8 people!) and I will be away from the scale for two days. So I figure this is a good time to try and experiment with my always worried, always number-obsessed mind! I will comment every day but I will get weighed only twice, on the 20th before I leave and on the 23rd, my morning home. We'll see how it goes!
    STARTING WEIGHT ON 12/1/2014: 338lbs
    ROUND 133 STARTING WEIGHT ON 12/13/2020: 137.5 lbs.
    ROUND GOAL WEIGHT: 137.5 - 137 lbs.
    ULTIMATE GOAL WEIGHT: 122-125 lbs.
    PREVIOUS ROUNDS
    Round 128: 138-139 lbs. (+1)
    Round 129: 139-134 lbs. (-5)
    Round 130: 134-137.5 lbs. (+3.5)
    Round 131: 137.5-134 lbs. (-3.5)
    Round 132: 134-136.5 lbs. (+2.5)
    Round 133: 139-138 lbs. (-1)
    Round 134: 138- 132.5 lbs. (-5.5)
    DAY/WEIGHT/COMMENT
    12/13 – 137.5 lbs. (5 pound gain over night even though I stuck fully to plan! This would have killed me before but I know this is not real! Long run is important! I have to remember that!)
    12/14 – Ran, exercised, ate all according to plan!
    12/15 - Very odd...it is easier to walk past the Twinkies than walk past the scale! I ALWAYS weighed in today...I played all the mind tricks, "I will look at it but not record it." "I will get on but not look." But I didn't! I did run, workout and eat according to plan, however!
    12/16 - Didn't weigh today! Ran and exercised. But I am nervous...we are closing early today at work because of the winter storm. I am quite worried about being home alone and eating...it will be okay. It will be okay. It is just that usually I am at work until 7 or later in the evening. Today I will be there hours before that...ugh. Okay. I can do this! And if I don't...it isn't the end of the world. I am just going to try my best.
    12/17 - (I made it through. I did eat more than usual, yet nothing "bad" like no added sugars just more veggies, fruit and I counted everything and measured portion sizes on scale. So while I feel like I gave in to eating more when stressed I think that I allowed myself to adapt my plan. And that is something I just feel like I can never do but I think I was able to reason "Hey...it is okay to figure out how to best be healthy and care for yourself, even your emotional needs" and I stayed within control and didn't let my disorder control me.)
    12/18 - Blah. I got weighed. It was a "good" number but I am not going to record it. I have to try to stop obsessing about the numbers. I am going to try again! I keep trying. Weigh in next on the 23rd. The 23rd! I can make it!
    12/19 - AGGH! I did it again! I stepped on the scale. It was another "good" number. STILL not going to record it. Okay so tomorrow. Tomorrow tomorrow I will try not to get weighed. I worry that I will because I know I won't be able to get weighed on Monday morning and Tuesday morning as I will be away that I will weigh myself tomorrow...but I am going to try. Runs and workouts and eating all going according to plan and have been since June 8. So that is good. Not bingeing, not restricting, not over exercising or over running...so those are successes, right? Just not the ones I was hoping for this round, but I am still okay. I am still here and still going to keep trying.

    @kalchthaleri Can you put the scale somewhere inconvenient between your planned weighings, like the garage, top shelf of your closet, or the attic?

    @SheilaBoneham Trade you. Apple Watch says 19 degrees and I think that is after warming a little today. I do need to figure out what leg wear to wear. I have leggings I love, but I manage to wear them even in the summer so not the best for winter. What did you buy?

    @SModa61 I know, I’m a weather wimp after 10 years on the southern coast of NC. I’m hoping my new long Johns under heavy-weight leggings will be warm. Here are the ones I ordered — they feel lovely, so I’m hoping the ice will melt this morning so I can give them a test run! https://amazon.com/gp/product/B083DWPJ7L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    @SheilaBoneham thanks for the recommendation. those look great. I bought these yesterday and tried them out in 25 degrees today https://www.target.com/p/women-39-s-seamless-high-waist-fleece-lined-leggings-a-new-day-8482-black-l-xl/-/A-79722160?ref=&ref=OpsEmail_Order_572_Default OPU B&j=173567&sfmc_sub=173953613&l=20_HTML&u=99985666&mid=7284873&jb=44558

    SW: 143.5

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/13 - 142.5 - My life's been a little crazy over the past week, but I have managed to track my weight. I'll try to catch up on all the posts from last round that I missed.
    12/14 - 144 - Not a surprise. I had a feeling that the scale was off yesterday and I had plenty of sodium. Drinking all the water today!
    12/15 - 144.5 - I'm really going to try to stay within weight loss calories the rest of the week. I don't want to go into Christmas at the top of my maintenance.
    12/16 - 144.5 - I'm just glad my weight didn't go any higher.
    12/17 - 145 - Stress is getting to me. We found out last week that my husband may have bladder cancer. We should know more on the 28th when he has a cystoscopy. I'm right at that level of stress where I eat for comfort especially with all the Christmas goodies around. My husband has wanted some comfort food too and I'm not keeping him from that either. (He doesn't have a weight problem) Logically, I know food is not going to fix our issues, but I've decided I'm not going to beat myself up if I go over maintenance. I'll just keep tracking and staying mindful, so I don't have too much to lose after the holidays.
    12/18 - 144.5 - Took the day off work today to clean my house and get a few things done before Christmas. My birthday is Sunday and we're doing a Zoom video call with multiple family members. Luckily, I only have to make sure the one room is really spotless for the call!
    12/19 - 143.5 - I suspect this is a false low (sometimes my scale gets "stuck"), but I'll take it.

    Round 135

    Age: 39
    Height: 5’ 3”
    SW: 163
    CW: 136.6
    GW: 125

    GW for this round: 135

    Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
    Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
    Round 128 (3): 150.4 to 148.0 (-2.4 lbs)
    Round 129 (4): 148.0 to 146.0 (-2.0 lbs)
    Round 130 (5): 146.0 to 144.4 (-1.6 lbs)
    Round 131 (6): 144.4 to 139.6 (-4.8 lbs)
    Round 132 (7): 139.6 to 138.8 (-0.8 lbs)
    Round 133 (8): 138.8 to 137.0 (-1.8 lbs)
    Round 134 (9): 137.0 to 136.6 (-0.4 lbs)

    Goals for this round:
    - Continue to do yoga nightly
    - Lose 1 - 1.5 lbs

    12/13 - 136.8 - Feeling incredibly bloated and yucky today. Not a great start. I managed to get up and make myself do 45 minutes of Just Dance, which helped me feel better but obviously the scale is still high. I’m going to try and relax as much as possible for the rest of the day - as much as the kids let me!

    12/14 - 136.8 - Yeah, so much for resting yesterday. I was on my feet all day long chasing kids, doing curbside pickups or making my meal prep for the week. I’m happy to get back to the meal prep though - it makes it so much easier to stick to my daily calories when I’m not figuring out on the fly what to eat.

    12/15 - 135.6 - So excited this morning, and not even because of the scale (though I’m very happy to be under 136 again). Last night my husband surprised me with my Christmas present early - a Series 6 Apple Watch! I’d been using his old Series 1 after he got a new one last year; it worked fine and I really liked it, but I was really interested in the new Apple Fitness + that was coming out and you needed a Series 3 and up to use it. So Apple Fitness + launched yesterday... and he got me the new watch so I could get it! I tried two workouts this morning - a HIIT and a Strength training - and LOVED it. It was absolutely adorable with the kids trying to do it with me too. I’m not going to stop doing Ring Fit and Just Dance, but this is an awesome new option for me.

    12/16 - 134.4 - That’s a nice whoosh! I needed that this morning. It’s so much harder to resist all the cookies and candy when you aren’t seeing progress on the scale.

    12/17 - 134.6 - I always seem to have a tiny bump up after a big drop. I guess it’s just my body adjusting. I did a HIIT workout this morning and I definitely felt it! Hopefully mixing it up with new workouts and higher intensity will help me keep up a slow decrease until Christmas.

    12/18 - 134.0 - Woke up sore this morning- still feeling the HIIT workout, I guess. So I started this morning with yoga and core workouts, then switched to dancing for about 20 minutes of cardio. Picking up the big grocery order this afternoon - everything we need for cookie making, Christmas Eve, Christmas breakfast and dinner - oh, and food for the rest of the week!

    12/19 - 134.0 - Perfectly happy to hold here; I honestly expected to go up after we had takeout Mediterranean food last night. It was delicious, but I ate a little more than I should have and while I stayed just under maintenance, I’m sure the sodium was sky-high. We’ll see if it shows up in the next few days.

    Goal: At least 15 minutes of yoga before bed each night

    12/13 - 15 minutes of yoga and mindful breathing before bed.

    12/14 - Skipped last night - too tired and fussy toddler again. Committing to doing it tonight.

    12/15 - Did 12 minutes of yoga and about 5 of deep breathing before bed. Days have still been challenging with my 5 year old, but I do think this is helping. It’s helping me sleep, at least, which also results in a calmer me during the day!

    12/16 - I had such a better day yesterday. Did 20 minutes of yoga before bed - I hope to find one of the Apple Fitness + yoga programs to be good for winding down for sleep.

    12/17 - Does deep breathing while rocking a crying toddler at 1 AM count?

    12/18 - Yoga stretches and relaxation moves

    12/19 - Found the mindful cool downs on Apple Fitness+; a 10 minute yoga and a 10 minute mindful cool down ending with a meditation looks like a perfect way to meet my challenge.

    Here we go!
    This round includes the Solstice at the end, Happy solstice everyone <3

    Previously...
    133 = 205/93 - 200.6/91
    134 = 200.6/91 - 197/89.5

    SW: 198.4/90
    CW: 198.4/90
    Goal: Preplan my food every day
    Goal: Be under 200lbs on 22nd

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/13 = 90
    Confused at my weigh-in results today I looked into how many calories I need to be eating (instead of just guessing)
    Thanks to @SheilaBoneham for posting the link to https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/ so I could get some good ballpark numbers.
    12/14 = 90
    The same again? It's so hard to trust that I'm still losing when the scale doesn't move.
    12/15 = 90 :disappointed:
    Over 7000kj today.
    What are you rebelling against?
    What have you got?... like, got any cookies on ya?
    12/16 = 90 :hushed:

    12/17 = 90 Halfway
    About 7000kj again due to an (oily) poorly cooked dinner by my partner
    must find a way to tactfully reject food that isn't good for me, even if it was prepared with good intentions.
    12/18 = 90
    I've decided to look at this streak as an accomplishment If this was next week I'd be proud of my weight management
    12/19 = 90
    Though maintenance was a personal goal for my holidays (starting on the 21st) I admit that I didn't actually believe I could do it, but because of this round I've seen that I can and am feeling positive about the next two weeks
    Now to get the rest of my projects half as organized!

    12/20 = 90
    Last day before my holidays! So exciting!
    Thinking about 2021...
    I've decided that after the holidays I want to start monitoring my macros, specifically my carb intake (to see if a lower-carb diet might be compatible with my lifestyle)
    I'm also thinking about doing the GAPS diet next year to address some intolerance issues which got worse during 2019-2020 but it's a very disruptive/restrictive and psychologically exhausting (for me) diet, so I'll need to get the timing right.

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 135 (round 67 for me ) I'm in for another round – I need this to lose a little more before Christmas! Thank you GrandmaJackie a brilliant champion in these unprecedented & unsettled times, for continuing to set 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 (again) will be to stay in132s or maybe creep into the 131s? Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference!

    Day/Weight/Comment
    12/13 132.2 - 9.6 miles walked yesterday. 71 calories over & high carbs from our Saturday pizza night.
    12/14 131.8 - whoo-oo! Well chuffed with this! Only 2.28 miles walked yesterday – rain all day. 120 calories over due to the lack of exercise.
    12/15 131.8 - 11.49 miles walked yesterday incorporating walking/jogging 5K in 44.04 mins. 635 calories in credit.
    12/16 131.8 – 13.37 miles walked yesterday including 5K completed in 42.49 mins; I repeated day 1 of week 5 C25K; 3 x 5 minute runs as the next day is supposed to be 2 x 8 minute runs, I'm struggling with the 5 so don't think I'll manage 8, maybe try later in the week!! 675 calories in

    exercise.png

    12/17 131.4 – only 3.11 miles walked yesterday because we had rain all day, so I did the last of my Christmas shopping and also my supermarket shopping; all I need now before the big day is the fresh stuff. In addition did majority of present wrapping. 25 calories over.
    12/18 131.4 – 11.64 miles incorporating walked/jogged 5K in 44.06. I was still running when I completed the 5K so tomorrow I'm going to start logging the distance someway into my warm up walk today. 576 calories in credit.
    12/19 132.2 – not concerned about slight up tick; normal variation? 11.76 miles walked yesterday incorporating day 2 of week 5 C25K; well I did it, 2 x 8 minutes of jogging yesterday with 5 minutes brisk walk inbetween to recover, but I peeped at the next day work out, 20 minutes !!! Yes 20 minutes continuous jogging, that's a big jump and my knee jerk reaction (mentally & physically – knee is really hating the running!) is never! But I didn't think I'd do 8 minutes, so never say never, I intend to repeat todays 2x 8 minutes a few times and maybe start to pinch a couple of walking minutes to continue jogging. I'll give it a go, that's all I can do, but I do really like how it's giving me a run of loses (until today)!! 581 calories in credit.
    12/20 132.2 – 12.14 miles walked yesterday. I was so down last night after the announcement that the 5 day Christmas easement had been cancelled, but then grateful that in our area we can at least meet up just for that one day – others aren't even that lucky. I ate all my calories yesterday plus 25 more :(.

    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – we're all in this together!

    Round 135 is back to reality. Day one weigh-in will be on my home scale and will be interesting to see. The round will end just days before X-mas. Goal for this is rather boring. Try to maintain the weight loss I had while in Florida while I figure out my colder weather exercise patterns and continue to adjust my daily calorie goal while nearing my ultimate goal weight.

    Previous goals: get under 150; get under 145 for my birthday (10/26); get to pre-COVID weight 142.4, get under 140 before thanksgiving, get to 137.6 (weight on 10/2/19), not gain over Thanksgiving, get below 135, lose 2 lb during December, walk/run to Sombrero B for sunrise.

    Round 135

    Female
    Height 5’ 4.5”
    Age 59

    UHW - 9/13/01 168.8
    Recent low weight - 5/24/17 - 126
    CSW - 9/14/20 153.0
    UGW 129.0
    Round 126 equivalent: -3.8 9/14-9/23
    Round 127: -2.0 9/24-10/3
    Round 128: -1.4 10/4-10/13
    Round 129: -1.4 10/14-10/23
    Round 130: -2.2 10/24-11/2
    Round 131: -2.8 11/3-11/12
    Round 132: -2.2 11/13-11/22
    Round 133: -.8 11/12-12/2
    Round 134: -3.8 12/3-12/12

    Round 135 – starting weight 132.6 (florida scale)

    12/13 – 133.6 Welcome home to me with a 1 lb gain. I am curious about the significance. Is it the change of scale, real but travel/fluid retention related, or what? Still thrilled to be at this number. We’ll see what the next days tell me. Back to reality today, and scrambling to be ready for the holidays while doing COVID quarantine due to our travel.

    12/14 – 132.8 So the two scales must match pretty well, which is nice to know. Wrenched my back yesterday being stupid. Need to make sure it does not turn into an excuse to not keep good habits going.

    12/15 – 133.8 It’s going to be one of those rounds…… :( Went out of control late last night. Got into leftover Halloween candy that I had been controlling perfectly since my last binge mid October. Moving on. :)

    12/16 – 134.8 CICO are fine, so I know these gains are not fat but fluid. Even my 12/14 evening candy binge had kept me under that day’s TDEE. ATM I am blaming pain meds. Yesterday, I have resorted to full on meds, around the clock Naproxen sodium with extra strength Tylenol. That combo means I can almost bend over and managed to sleep a bit better last night. I can walk well (once I stand up), but 19 degrees is not making it inviting. So ticked with myself. Need to stay focused and need to remember that diligent tracking will allow me to parse the cause of a gain, and power through until all this sorts out. Giving it a couple more days before I bother the doctor.

    12/17 – 133.2 Pain meds are gone. Back still off, but could sleep last night. Fortunately, I can do my exercises (cycle, walking, planks) thought not attempting jogging or hills. Calories good. Yesterday’s exercise with good music seems to be helping get my head back in the game. Today is a significant snowstorm here. Already did 20 minutes on the bike before reporting in here. Looking to break up the day with other mini workouts. We’ll see if I have that to report tomorrow morning. :P

    12/18 – 133.4 Weather not great to get outside. Yesterday was two rounds of 20 min indoor bike. I did purchase fleece leggings (store pickup today) that will hopefully give me more options as winter proceeds. Calories are good enough. Scale not moving, but also have noticed that I am “bound up” which is uncommon for me especially since I have taken preventative meds/supplements ever since my hemorrhoidectomy (worst word to spell) two years ago. Just keep going forward and trust it will work out.

    12/19 – 133.2 Have to get more exercise. Yesterday’s temps now look warm. This morning is 9 degrees. Not sure my new fleece lined leggings can even handle that. Digestive system still not normal and I am super confused. The only remaining variable is a new food I have had the past 4 days – pumpkin soup. While I was travel quarantining, I ran out of my usual mixed veggie soup and I had the ingredients to make pumpkin soup do I made it. I know google does not agree, but in the feline IBD group I am in members use it in their cats to “firm them up”. I may experiment and delay by last bowl of this soup for a day or two to see if there is a cause and effect.

    12/20 – 132.4 Kind of gone full circle and back where I started. But that’s ok. I just looked back at what I stated as my goal for this round and ATM I am on track. Got myself on the elliptical last night. First time in I-don’t-know-how-long. I have two more months in the northern cold weather before heading back to Florida. I need to develop my indoor options. Digestive system still not as it should be. I am super confused. Tonight, we are doing our Sunday night fire in the fireplace and roasted sausages in the coals. Yum!

    Here we go!

    12/20 = 90
    Last day before my holidays! So exciting!
    Thinking about 2021...
    I've decided that after the holidays I want to start monitoring my macros, specifically my carb intake (to see if a lower-carb diet might be compatible with my lifestyle)
    I'm also thinking about doing the GAPS diet next year to address some intolerance issues which got worse during 2019-2020 but it's a very disruptive/restrictive and psychologically exhausting (for me) diet, so I'll need to get the timing right.

    @acrylicfox For food sensitivities/intolerances, I typically see FODMAP being used. DD was put on it when she became digestively ill back in Grad school. Yes, it is disruptive/restrictive as well but you can break it into chunks. If I recall there are 6 test groups. If you have the time, you do the initial low FODMAP clearing of your system (typically a few week process), then you begin the dietary challenges of a single test group. Then it is a clearing and testing process until you work through all 6 groups. Shortest amount of time is to proceed contiguously. BUT you do have the options of dealing with a subset of challenge test groups, stopping, and then starting again with another system clearing and proceeding where you left off with the groups. DD did find a few reactive foods - foods that she had previously eaten fine for years (so odd). They also did a hydrogen breath test, that identified mild SIBO. In the end, coincidence or not, her improvement came at the point she started including good probiotics to her diet. Is there something special about GAPS? I am not familiar with it, but it does sound more restrictive than FODMAP and sounds like it is a multiyear commitment. (Curious because son's girlfriend is having significant digestive complaints and I am always looking for new suggestions.)

    You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.

    My goal for 2020 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    12/13 213.1 No exercise, 1492 cal, 47 net carbs, 1 wine. Pancakes for breakfast + chips & guac for lunch.
    12/14 212.8 No exercise rainy weekend, plank, 2486 cal, 44 net carbs, 2 wine. Really rich dinner - Sheet Pan Mustard Chicken with Bacon, Mushrooms & Onions.
    12/15 211.6 🎗Walked 3.1 miles, plank, 1142 cal, 78 net carbs, AF. Red beans and rice for dinner surely bump up the scale but it didn't. Maybe because of smaller portion or no cornbread? Low calories overall today and I guess carbs were not as out of control as I thought.
    12/16 212.1 Walked 2.4 miles in misty rain, plank, 1269 cal, 85 net carbs, 3 wine. Pasta for dinner. WI at my obgyn’s yesterday fully clothed w/shoes in the afternoon was 212! When I last saw her in Feb 2019 I weighed 235.
    12/17 213.4 Walked 1.9 + .9 miles, 1846 cal, 144 net carbs, AF. I think I pushed the limits with a restaurant salad at lunch and then Grimaldi’s pizza for dinner! Both were delicious but back to the board to drive the scale back down.
    12/18 213.4 Walked 3.2 miles, 1659 cal, 72 net carbs, 2 wine. Lost electricity unexpected dinner out.
    12/19 212.7 Walked 3.3 miles, plank, 1465 cal, 39 net carbs, AF. Still not drinking enough water … need to up my game and guzzle more water this weekend.
    12/20 212.7 No exercise, plank, 1421 cal, 113 net carbs, AF. Homemade Holiday Fruit Cookies … DH’s favorite from his mother’s recipe.
