Round 140
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 128.8
GW: 125
GW for this round: 127.5
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)
Round 139 (14): 130.2 to 128.8 (-1.4 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Walk at least 1.75 miles with the dog each night
- Export my data from the various programs I’m using and combine into one spreadsheet for analysis
- Decide on my “reward” for hitting my goal weight!
2/1 - 128.6 - Hello to February and a new round! I did a great HIIT workout this morning, but I think it’s making me hungrier than usual. I’ve stuck to my meal prep though. It’s a gorgeous day here (so sorry to those getting buried with snow!) and I’ve already taken the kids out once. I hoping to get outside again this afternoon.
2/2 - 128.4 - My daughter declared yesterday afternoon that it was “Car Day” and we HAD to make a Car Day cake for her little brother (who is obsessed with cars and trucks.) This is exactly what I want my kids to see and experience - that all foods are available as long as we eat them in moderation. I’m not going to ruin her fun by declaring we can’t have cake in the house because Mommy is on a diet! So we made a yellow butter cake with vanilla buttercream, and she went crazy with the sprinkles and asked me to write “Happy Car Day” on it. We tried to get little brother to do some sprinkles but he just tried to grab handfuls of cake. Then the whole family had small pieces after dinner and it went back into the fridge - was I tempted to eat more of it? Absolutely, but I didn’t and I didn’t go over my calorie limit. I’m calling yesterday a win.
2/3 - 128.0 - Huh. I had a hungry day yesterday, so I let myself eat at maintenance - I figured it was better to eat more of my regular food than risk bingeing on cake because I was starving. I fully expected to be up a bit today just due to the extra food. Not complaining though! I’ve made some progress on my round goals: I’ve found a new loop to take on my evening walk with our dog - 2 miles total. I’ve also ordered my reward outfit! It’s a pink rose floral crop top and burgundy leggings from Athleta. I’m super excited about it and really hope they’ll fit. The leggings are back ordered and won’t arrive until March, which is fine because I won’t hit my goal weight for a few more weeks anyway.

Feb. 2nd was successful all day. I prelogged my food, checked into the boards and did meditation things, as well as a few audios from youtube (Robin Sherma?) that helped get my mind right.
Scale was okay. I can't lie.... I really don't like the f8c%kN thing right now. But, obviously I've picked up some habits over the past 3 months....and it has resulted in this. Cardio workout this morning. OMG can I do that again?!?!? pllleeaaase!!!! it felt so good..... much better than sitting in this chair.

SW: ? I should know this 🤯
GW: 135lbs-139lbs, May I always weigh less than 140lbs🤞🤞🏽🤞🏿
Day/Weight/Comment
Hi everyone! For who knows how many dozens of times I'm attempting to get online and post accountability daily.
This period I'm going to restart my intermittent fasting and keto routine. Minimum fast 24hrs with a goal of 48hrs by the tenth. Low carb high fat and an indoor run or hiit every other day.
02/01
02/02
02/03 167.6lbs
I'm a wreck today. My brain is about 50% functional. My schedule has to change and I'm figuring things out. I've been fasting over 24hrs now and hunger is not helping me focus.
Reminder to self: Acknowledge your issues today are mundane ones and not real problems. It does not deminish their importance to remember that relative to the circumstances of others, you are doing okay.

Just wondering if you are drinking lots of water. Sometimes, that can really make a difference. Do NOT quit! Your body is fighting you on your new routines, but it will acquiesce soon! In the meantime, you are doing the right thing by sticking to your step goal and getting in a run. Hang in there!4 -

I was going to say that if you are willing to make your diary public, there might be feedback regarding food/tracking.4 -

Hi everyone! Thanks for the thoughts, prayers and good vibes for my dad. He was better enough to go home today. He still feels pretty awful “healthy enough” to drive himself a mile down the road to his house. He definitely sounded a lot better today and the gi symptoms cleared up at least. So now it’s just resting as much as possible for him. It’s been crazy at work for me but I should be able to do a normal post tomorrow! 🙂13

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!😷
February 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 140- 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.
