Just Give Me 10 Days ~ Round 139

He is still doing very well thank you, it's his 1st birthday on Tuesday! He did have a bad week just after Christmas; he had an infection believed to be in the line which is still in into his heart and he also tested posotive for Covid, they took him into hospital and was on both IV and oral antibiotics, which quickly brought his temperature down. After a few days he was right as rein and discharged home. He is still very small; at the lowest end of the centiles, but the happiest and nicest disposition baby you could met. He is a bit behind in his development, but I think that is to be expected with the fact that he was in hospital and very seriously ill for 2 and a half months, and he is catching up slowly. He loves life and his food!! He is awaiting an appointment to have the line removed, but like all non-emergency theatre procedures it is delayed due to covid.
I remember vividely that 12 hours he was in theatre and the weeks after until he "turned the corner"; so emotionally worrying, not sleeping and not being able to support DD & SIL by being with them or visiting cuz of the covid restrictions. Not good memories, but them the joy and gratefulness to all the surgeons, consultants, doctors & nurses who did their "magic" (and gratitude to the donors family), to know he had been discharged home to his family, seeing the photos of him with his 2 year old brother - priceless. We still couldn't visit because as he had no immune system he was in isolation at home, we had to do with waving to him through the window.
You shall all be at the fore front of my mind in these next few weeks, I'm hoping everything goes perfectly to plan and that he will be home running around soon xx.
Happy 1st birthday to him!! Our boy is pretty high on weight (but with the amount of bile buildup, we aren't shocked), but he is still so tiny for 2.5yrs. Hopefully he'll get big like his daddy after recovery.
For the infection and COVID ordeal -- HOW DID YOU MANAGE?! That's some crazy rollercoaster ride. I'm so happy he bounced back and is doing well. I'll keep him in my thoughts, as well
Its so good to have a happy ending story to keep my spirits up 5 -
@CamandJarvis - good news, thanks for the update, I've been on tenderhooks since you reported he was in surgery. Hope the bile build up problem is quickly addrssed and he has a quick and good recovery. You're all still in my thoughts xx 5

Round 139
SW: 145, GW: 125
Round 138 (first round!): 134.6 to 129.8 (-4.8lbs)
Goals for this round:
-at least 8 glasses of water daily
-pre-track as much as possible...and stick to it
-move at least 30 minutes a day
-asleep by 10:30!
01/22 - 130.8. I tried out a couple new recipes yesterday, which means more opportunities to "sample"...which would be fine, except for when it happens after I've officially finished eating/tracking for the day! An additional goal for this round (this is for my benefit, as I tend to forget): no new recipes that require testing/sampling!
Stairs, walking, free weights, and an online Zumba class yesterday. I'm not used to having so much energy! Definitely a NSV!
01/23 -132.4. Yesterday was a little rough for me, but thanks to so many positive examples on this forum, I decided to stick with the group and with my weightloss/healthy-habit-forming efforts. Thank you!

Day/Weight/Comment
1/22 = 132.2 Ordered a single-serve NutriBullet yesterday with gift certificate I received from work. I only have one smoothie recipe (frozen strawberries+yogurt+milk) , so any recipe/website/book suggestions would be appreciated! I am good at following directions, but not so good at just "throwing things together" when it comes to food. Maybe it will come with recipes, who knows. I'm hoping this will be a way to get a healthy breakfast in---or at least a step in the right direction...plus to be perfectly honest it looked like fun and I do love gadgets:)
1/23 = 133.8 Had my hair done yesterday--had her put in some highlights for summer(haha--listen, it's never too early to be prepared for summer, amirite? LOL) I have deemed today Spa Day:) Sooooo...face mask, toenails paint, wax those eyebrows (and mustache--ackk the horror--nobody told me i would grow a stache when i got old O.O) Anyway, trying to do some self care and gathering my courage (and long johns!) to start C-2-10K...again. Monday weather says 31F so that's my target day. There----I said it "out loud", therefore now it must happen:)

Day/Comment
1/22 - met goals, although my walk was short
Not tracking is weird after 6 years of doing it religiously, and of course my internal calculator has a pretty good sense of my calories & macros, but I’m not dwelling on the numbers, at least through this round. My daily mindful eating meditation class is making me very aware of what I’m eating and also how. DH is a “shoveler” and when I married him, I started eating faster so I wouldn’t still be eating 15 minutes after he finished. I’m working on getting back to eating slowly and savoring what I eat, even if I’m the last one finished! This morning I couldn’t finish my yogurt because I’d given myself time to realize I was full. I’m also looking at ways to cozy up all the rooms I spend time in, thinking I’ll find more comfort in my surroundings rather than in too much food too often.
1/23 - met goals
Yesterday was good. Today is very cold, but cozy inside, so all good. Enjoy your Saturday!

SW 126.2 (April 14th, 2020)
Highest lifetime weight: 138 lbs. August 2011
Goal Weight: 110
Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4 ->115 ->113 -> 113-> 113.8 ->114.6 -> 113.6 -> 115.8-> 116 -> 115.6 -> 117.6 -> 115.8 ->118.2
Goal weight for this round: Seeing lower 115 or squeaking into 114 would be fantastic!
Another goal: Actually check-in each day and weigh daily.
Previous days01/23 116.6 Last night I ended up getting takeout with my husband, but I made it fit calorie wise. I was a little over but not enough to wreck my entire week. I decided that weight loss for me isn’t sustainable if I don’t make takeout fit into my life because by Friday night, we need a break from cooking/dishes/etc. We got Buffalo Wild Wings, he ordered what he wanted, and I got a black bean burger but omitted the ranch dressing (saving 170 calories) and selected no salt on my fries (saving tons of sodium). I also finished the wine I had in the fridge from last weekend (1 large glass worth~9 or 10 oz). Those little changes made a difference for me and I’m even down somehow from yesterday morning. The body is so weird… but I’ll take it.
01/22 117.4 Our scale has been weird lately along with my salt intake, so I don’t really know how much I actually weigh aha. I wish I had one of the old school scales that you were able to visually balance and then step on it. That would be ideal.
I hit Trader Joe’s today after PT and got myself some staples(I won’t list the staples) and a few fun things to try: Pork and ginger soup dumplings, coconut cream whole milk Greek yogurt, and artichoke, kale dip made with Greek yogurt, and a couple different types of crackers to go with it. I plan on having the dumplings tonight with a big salad if my husband wants take out. I’ll grab him take out and make myself the alternative. The dumplings are only 270 calories for a box of six. I’m excited to try them because I’ve read great things about them! The dip, crackers and yogurt will be my snack/mini lunch today. Happy Friday everyone!
Today, breakfast was two slices of high fiber toast with cream cheese on it and two mini dark chocolate peanut butter cups melted in (I had a chocolate craving and this stretched the chocolate flavor and I also stirred in some inulin fiber too), two eggs, and an apple cut up. It really hit the spot and clocked in at around 700 calories but it fits within my day(30 g protein, 58g carbs, and 37g fat so it was pretty balanced). My snack will be the artichoke kale dip with Akmak crackers and a Fiberful peanut butter bar. Dinner will be panko-crusted chicken breast with a large salad topped with cranberry goat cheese, sesame honey cashews, and raspberry vinegar.

Goals: Yoga every day! Spin bike at least 5 times per week with at least one 45 – 60 minute ride per week, two 30 minute rides, and two 20 minute rides.
01/22 50 minute heart opening vinyasa yoga video and I plan on jumping on the spin bike in a few for a 20ish minute ride. Then, I’ll do my afternoon walk when I’m done with work.
01/23 I started my day with an hour yoga video and then a killer 30 minute spin bike video. The yoga was really fun and I was even able to do a new pose for like 1.5 seconds (side crow). Then, I’ll have a bit of a walk later today when I have to run into the city to get vaccinated (I work in healthcare) (my husband got his first vaccination this morning too because he works directly with patients, so hopefully our stress levels will subside a bit knowing we will be fully vaccinated in a few weeks after the second dose).

01/22 …..205.2 ….. I am inviting my friend over tonight (the one that always brings me high calorie foods without notice) for dinner. I am making low calorie / low carb shish-kabobs. This time it’s MY choice for the menu lol. My friend is a friend of 20 years. He is male and can eat things without gaining which just isn’t true for this female post-menopausal body! No matter how many times I tell him, he just doesn’t get it. Anyway, I hope to dip into the 204’s by tomorrow or the next day. Persisting……..
01/23 …..206.2 ….. A wonderful low cal/carb dinner with my friend. Then, late night pop-tarts with milk. Just don’t do it folks!

Round 139
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 130.2
GW: 125
GW for this round: 128.5
Round 135 (10): 136.6 to 133.6 (-3.0 lbs)
Round 136 (11): 133.6 to 133.2 (-0.4 lbs)
Round 137 (12): 133.2 to 131.8 (-1.4 lbs)
Round 138 (13): 131.8 to 130.2 (-1.6 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Finish the beginner plank challenge
- Complete my Apple Fitness challenge for January: Earn a total of 25,900 Move calories this month.
- Get below 129 lbs
1/22 - 130.2 - Starting this round at the same weight as the end of the last one. I’m happy that the drop held, but we’ll see about tomorrow. Friday is our family movie night and I’ve budgeted calories for popcorn and a drink, but it will still be a sodium hit. I did 45 minutes of cardio this morning and about 10 minutes of weights - I meant to do 20 but the kids needed me and I didn’t get back to it. I’ll just have to fit it in tomorrow.
1/23 - DNW - Not a great day yesterday. I don’t know the final calorie total, but I definitely indulged in too many snacks and sweets on top of the popcorn. Chocolate is my big weakness - once I have any I start craving more and then I start justifying to myself why “one more” is ok. Well, the damage is done and today is a new day. I’m not facing the scale until tomorrow though. I still got some exercise in this morning despite the kids getting up early, and just snuck in my plank while they had lunch.

Think you typo'd todays weight? Surely not gained 10lb over night !!6 -
And I feel pretty tone-deaf and self-centered calling yesterday "rough for me" when there are babies undergoing major surgery and the adults who love them are waiting and praying for good news!
Thank you for the updates (and perspective), @CamandJarvis! Hoping for a speedy recovery ❤️.
Don't be so hard on yourself - this is human nature and it does one good to get it off one's chest - a problem shared is a problem halved?. That's what we are all here for to support and encourage each other. Hope today was better for you x.5 -

JGM10D Round 139
Looking forward:
You are not stuck at home
You are SAFE at home
One word can change your attitude
☠️One cough can change your life☠️
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
January focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:
2021 Focus:- Maintain weight < 150
- 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
Never give up! Never give in!
Recent Back Story:JGM10D ~|~ Round 138- 2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
- 2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
- 2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2021
- Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
- (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

@CamandJarvis - so pleased about your good news. Hope the bile build up problem is quickly addrssed and he continues to thrive. Will keep you all in my thoughts. 💖

Hot summer days forecast this week (in Australia), my garden and I am not looking forward to it, Onwards!
SW: 190.0/86.2
CW: 189.5/86
Next goal: 189.5/86 (BMI: 29.8)
Aims:- Experiment with different strategies to mitigate stress eating.
- Don't restrict KJ further to "make up" for overeating - it just creates more stress!
01/21 = 86.7
01/22 = 86.2
I slept in and it's warm already
It'll be Hot tomorrow (and the whole weekend) so I'll start trialing my "Liquid fast technique" tomorrow, today I'll just try to eat normally and keep a short rein on snacking.
01/23 = 86.2
The plan for today is porridge, juice, and soup -no solids- during the daylight hours, to hopefully curtail my tendency towards mindless snacking whenever the temp gets much above 38/100 degrees
*fingers crossed*
01/24 = 86
BMI Goal!
Daylight liquid fast seemed to help with snacking but I well and truly over-indulged in carbs in the evening, I don't think I can call it a perfect strategy... in an effort to reduce carb cravings I'll try up-ing my protein for the daytime meals today.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 139 (round 71 for me ) I'm in for another round as I need this to help me keep on track! 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 closer to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life ! Long term goal is to get and then stay under 130; then full maintanace starts and dare I say it is in my sights?
Challenge for this round – dare I hope to get into 130s for the end of the round? I've not been that low since June 2019! Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, try to keep it in moderation, keep walking, no binges; remember keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference!
Hoping to complete 5K run by end of this round.
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.End of round 69 134.2 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
01/22 130.2 – Whooowhoo !! Knock me down with a feather ! I didn't expect that! I had set my goals last night daring myself to get into the 130's during this new round and here I am on day 1!! So my amended goal is to stay within the 130's and maybe sneak down below 130? The later is a big ask with these whooshes the last 2 consecutive days. 8.86 miles yesterday including 17 minutes running. I really struggled yesterday with the running: I was aiming for 30 minutes after doing 28 & 29 on Monday & Tuesday respectively, but after 15 minutes I was pushing myself, oh well, try again today.
01/23 130.2 - 10.03 miles yesterday including 23 mins running – looks like I've got to build my time up again! Good food day, it's helping that I pre log food for the day at breakfast tweaking it slightly as the day goes on.
01/24 131.6 –that's last night's pizza tea; in calories but high in carbs, the last day of this round is a Sunday so I will need to work hard this week to keep numbers down for that last day. 9.45 miles walked yesterday with DH, as we are still in lockdown it was pounding the pavements in the local area from home.
