    Hi. This is my sixth round. I weigh in Kg and also record my Happy Scale trend

    Round 131 SW 55.6 EW 56.1. Loss 0.5 kg
    Round 132 SW 56 EW 54.7. Loss 1.3kg
    Round 133 SW 54.7 EW 54.0. Loss 0.7kg
    Round 134 SW 54.2 EW 53.7. Loss 0.5kg
    Round 135 SW 53.6. Goal 53kg would be great but could be wishful thinking!

    Sun 13 53.6 kg Trend ⬇️ 😊
    Mon 14 53.4 trend ↔️ 😊
    Tue 15 53.4 trend ↔️ Ok
    Wed 16 53.8 trend ⬆️ 👿 this in not ok - too many “treats”
    Thu 17 53.5 trend ↔️ Better
    Fri 18 53.2 trend ⬇️ 😊
    Sat 19 Early start so forgot to weigh. No exercise and dubious food choices yesterday and today will be much the same
    Sun 20 53.6 trend ↔️ The only surprise is that it wasn’t worse! It was a different scale and I don’t know whether that’s a feature.

    12/19 - 147.7
    12/20 - 148.8 - Expected. Friends birthday so we got dinner and sat around drinking and hanging out for awhile (socially distanced) to celebrate it. Not a lot of sleep, so I think that has to do with it as well. I think lazy day today. Kids are awake before me yesterday and today so busy with them from the time I get up until we go to bed. Not a bad busy, but definitely hard to do me things (like yoga). Its a sacrifice I'll make since we only get a week with them.
    12/21
    12/22

    Previous Day's Comments
    12/13 - Not at all surprised with the bump up. Expected it to be more of an increase, honestly. Fasted 16hrs yesterday and 60oz water yesterday. Hoping to be AF today. It is a pretty chill day. I'll be content with a 12hr fast as I had a drink last night around a fire just talking - 12 hrs puts me at 230pm. Will see if I can push for longer but one day won't completely undo everything. Back on the wagon today with closing fasting window as early as I can after dinner.
    12/14 - Back down and then some. Visually a little bloated, though. I am not at all sure what is going on with this sudden weight loss. Yesterday I was very likely below calories but I wasn't overly hungry, either. Otherwise, I've been expecting significant bumps up. Fasted 5 minutes shy of 12hrs, hence the bloat. Also only got about 3-3.5hrs of solid sleep last night. 96oz water. No alcohol. Finished dinner early so unless BF makes breakfast for me, I can easily reach 17-18hrs. I will try to track food to make sure I'm eating enough. I did this last week and had plenty enough then. Wondering if my body was adjusting to fasting again? I've never had a long adjustment (10 weeks!) like that, but my hormone imbalance issue a few weeks ago may have prolonged a lot of things. May have reset my body, too, now that I'm back on track hormonally.
    12/15 - This is okay, I expected it. 18hr fast and only 70oz water yesterday. Dinner was late so I'm hoping to hit 17hrs today.
    12/16 - Ended up doing an accidental OMAD yesterday. Didn't get near enough water, either - estimating 48oz or so. Finally able to pass out last night and get good sleep. It was a super struggle to wake up this morning. Guess body and mind were trying to play catch up on several days of 3-4hr sleep. Attempting chicken crispitos today. Not sure how well it'll go, but I'm going to try it!
    12/17 - I'm not entirely sure what these drops are about. I'm certain I'm eating enough. I'm definitely feeling full during my meals and my body isn't reacting in any abnormal way other than the scale. Any long term IF-ers out there experience a steady weight/weight gain followed but a fairly sudden and quick drop? It seems too fast and too sudden, but this is the first time I've consistently fasted. Fasted 19.75hrs yesterday, water still not great - 36oz maybe? Need to get that back up, especially since the bloat has gone up. Crispitos were actually quite good yesterday. My first time frying anything like that. They're kind of like taquitos. I used venison and onion, cooked up. Took tortillas, wrapped the meat/onion in them, and fried. Garnish as you wish (salsa, hot sauce, cheese, etc. We thought of leftover night tonight and had the idea of pouring the leftover chili BF made over leftover crispitos. Excited to try that!). Its frigid to me - 25 degrees! I thought I moved away from this bitter cold, brrrr. Hope I don't catch a chill, like cold to the bones, early on that I can't seem to shake loose. Maybe a quick morning workout will warm me up enough I can curl up under my couch blanket to stay warm.
    12/18 - Its okay, expected! Fasted just shy 15hrs as I dealt with heartburn and needed to take antacids (which breaks the fast) so I had some homemade bread to supplement the antacids. Had Taco Bell (its next town over we don't go often) and then leftover crispitos for dinner. I'm actually surprised I stayed in the 140s with all that! about 75oz down, thankfully.
    12/19 - That's from not eating. I had some bread and butter to break my fast then wasn't hungry. Dinner was gumbo but I had a salad to start off and struggled to finish the salad because I wasn't hungry. Ended up pushing my fasting back a loooot by eating a handful of goldfish with the kiddo. 1030 will be 12hrs so hopefully I can push past that and get closer to 14hrs. Think I'm going through one of my not hungry bouts. I also have insatiable hunger bouts, too. Oh well. I don't feel unwell and trying to listen to my body. Figured having goldfish wouldn't hurt - sharing with the kiddo on the first night of seeing them again.12/20

    y0w1f3xme3tx.pngCompleted: 8/15
    12/01 - :)What better way to beat anxiety than yoga. Today I'll try to get some meditative yoga to help me calm down after last night.
    12/02 - :/Yesterday I got halfway through my yoga workout and the dog started throwing up everywhere. I have a weak stomach so cleaning it had me gagging and running to the bathroom. Ruined the mood. Try again today to make up for it
    12/03 - :)Did get my yoga done yesterday. Yoga With Adriene has her December calendar up so I'm following those videos on the days I can practice. Yesterday was a 10 minute meditation yoga so I decided to get some movement as well by finishing the practice I didn't get to on 12/01. I just started over since it was also a pretty short one.
    12/04 - :/Started my yoga practice but was interrupted with BF waking up earlier than normal. The worst part about having a house a tad too small.
    12/05 - :)I realized I'm behind on YWA calendar. I did the meditation as day 2 instead of day 1! Oops. Hoping a short practice today since I'm not sure plans.
    12/06 - :/Didn't get a practice in and not sure I'll get one in today. Will have to focus on getting them done during the week and give myself slack on weekends since they're always spur of the moment.
    12/07 - :/No yoga. Couldn't even finish making coffee and BF was ready to go. I kind of figured that would happen. Hoping today I'll wake up a little bit more so I can get a practice in, even if its short and sweet.
    12/08 - :/No yoga, work has been crazy busy with meetings. Today is even busier! Almost back to back meetings. It'll be a miracle if I can get yoga in today. The remainder of my work week looks just as bad. Will keep looking for opportunities
    12/09 - :)Managed to squeeze in a really quick practice for gut health yesterday. Not sure I'll get to today, but I'll keep trying to squeeze something in whenever I possibly can!
    12/10 - :/Work got stupid busy so couldn't squeeze in a practice yesterday. Once my 630am meeting is over, I'll hop on the living room TV for practice since BF won't be up until 8 at the very earliest (plus I have an 830 meeting). I'm not as groggy this morning so I think I can push through to hopefully wake me up fully.
    12/11 - :)Right after my meeting I did a quick practice, but it was more of a morning wake up stretch to jolt some energy through you. It worked, I needed a good, over-the-top morning stretch
    12/12 - :/Didn't get a chance to, had to run errands early before the weekend flood of tourists made it in.
    12/13 - :)Got a quick ab yoga workout in and I'm still feeling it today. Whoooa! Need to find a nice simple practice since I'm running on 5-6hrs sleep right now (stupid insomnia) that won't leave me feeling too drained after
    12/14 - :)I didn't get to finish my practice, but I got most of it done, so I'm calling it a success.
    12/15 - :/I was so tired yesterday. Didn't get much sleep last night, either, but going to try for an easy stretch practice just to get some movement in
    12/16 - :/Didn't get one in yesterday. By the time I had any kind of energy, work blew up and I used my energy working.
    12/17 - :/Didn't happen. Was quite groggy and unmotivated yesterday. Sleepy this morning but the frigid cold shocked me awake enough I'm looking up a youtube as soon as I post to try to warm myself up with physical activity.
    12/18 - :/Ugh, I get interrupted right at beginning. Home alone today so definitely can get one in! I really will struggle with kids here so I need to put more effort into making it happen first thing in the morning regardless how sleepy/groggy I am.
    12/19 - :)Very short video, but got something in. Better than nothing.
    12/20 - :/Kids awake before me and on playstation/tv so no way for me to get to my YWA videos. Hopefully, tomorrow and Tuesday I can knock some out since I'll be awake so early for work. Can't imagine anyone but the daughter would be awake THAT early. Even she might not, despite being a morning person. If I can find a place to do it, I will try to sneak one in during the day off my phone -- space is NOT on my side when kids here.

    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.

    12/20 - 134.0 - Still holding, still happy! I had a really rough day with the kids yesterday; the 5 year old is having so much trouble with the updated stay at home order. I let myself have one of the chocolate mint cookies I’d made and a glass of amaretto last night - took me up to maintenance, but not over. I did pay for it though - I normally have a Yasso or Clio Greek yogurt bar after dinner each night. It’s a nice dessert that gives me a good amount of protein. Since I skipped it for the cookie/drink instead, I woke up at about 5 this morning absolutely STARVING. The power of protein!

    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.

    12/20 - Too tired to do anything last night; went to bed early instead.

    @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.)

    It sounds like the two diets are similar in structure but the GAPS does have to be done in a linear fashion, ya can't just stop and start (although that's exactly what I've done in the past :joy: )
    I don't know much about FODMAPS, it seems there is a bit of overlap. I assume both elimination diets are attempting to do the same thing (correct a digestive biome imbalance to benefit of the immune system and brain).

    The main reason I use GAPS is because the things I have issues with: grains, dairy, the nightshade family, etc, just seem to fit better within it and I have a friend who recommended it after she used it with great success. when I tried it for a couple of months I experienced a big reduction in the symptoms of my lifelong (if mild) intolerance to dairy.
    Unfortunately, the intolerance returned (turned up to 11) after I was sick (and medicated) in 2019, so back to the GAPS I go, I plan to do it properly this time, fingers crossed I get the same results.
    I would recommend the diet but I don't think it's for everyone, I'd say definitely mention it to your son's partner as something she might want to try out for a month or three but respect it if she feels it's too restrictive, she'd have a point :smile:

    I would recommend the diet but I don't think it's for everyone, I'd say definitely mention it to your son's partner as something she might want to try out for a month or three but respect it if she feels it's too restrictive, she'd have a point :smile:

    @acrylicfox I do hope that GAPS brings you healing again. As for son's partner, I'll retain the info for now. They have been seeing each other since last Feb and he only lives one town away, but with all the COVID precautions, I have only met her twice. So far, any pointers I give to my son, he is hesitant to pass on. Hopefully we will have opportunities to spend more time with the young lady and at an appropriate point I can share suggestions.

    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.
    12/20 - 144 - Not a surprise!
    12/21 -
    12/22 -
