    Day/Weight/Comment

    03/03 - 200.4. Getting below 200 is an important milestone for me. It means I'll have lost all my lockdown weight. Yesterday was a decent day in terms of food (mainly because I forgot to eat rather than making good choices though) but have been really inactive this week.

    03/04 - 200.6. I'm a bit all over the place this week for some reason. Managing to keep my calories down, but just can't motivate myself to get out for walks. Might be that the weather has been a bit rubbish after a few days of lovely Spring sunshine.

    03/05 - 199.8. Finally below 200 - even if only just about and maybe briefly.

    03/06 - 198.8 I was really pleased with this!

    03/07 - 201.0 - not what I wanted to see, especially as Friday had been below calories and had been moderately active.

    03/08 - 201.2 - definitely the wrong direction. I had a fairly indulgent weekend, but made sure that my calories for the week stayed under a 1750 average per day. So I know that across the whole week, I am still eating in a deficit. But the weekend always brings saltier foods, more processed foods etc. But it's Monday. I'm back on it. I can get this back on track.

    03/09 - 201.2 - yesterday pretty good in terms of calories, but not massively active because work continues to be really busy.

    03/10 - 199.6 - really pleased with this. I always seem to get quite a drop mid-week after the effects of the weekend wear off. Hopefully can drop a bit more the next couple of days before I ruin it all again at the weekend
    :wink:


    03/11 - 198.4 - what's that Skippy? It's midweek and I've dropped a bit? But don't get too excited because it will rebound a bit by Monday?

    Last round ended lower than I started but my average stayed the same which isn't ideal. Going to treat March like its January!

    OSW 88kg
    RSW 62.4kg {2.6kg loss this year }
    Average last round 62.9 kg

    03/03 - 62.3 kg. A public holiday here so gym a bit later and a day sewing.
    03/04 - 62.9 kg. Hoping just a blip. Gym done.
    03/05 - 62.6 kg. Gym done and aerobics later today.
    03/06 - 62.0 kg no gym today just a little gentle shopping and see a friend for a socially distanced coffee
    03/07 - 62.0kg. Quiet OMAD day
    03/08 - 62.4kg. Not bad for a Monday. Gym done. 68
    03/09 - 61.9kg nice! Gym done
    03/10 - 61.9kg again. Happy with that and with aerobics yesterday and gym today.
    03/11 - 61.5kg. Very happy with a new low this year... Only 1.5kg until I get back into maintenance . Gym was a bit slow today.

    03/11 - 144.8 - Pretty sure that's my sodium blip from homemade burger and chips. Didn't really have much to eat all day, but dinner was really large because of it. Fasted 16hr, drank 90oz
    03/12

    Previous Day's Comments
    03/03 - Despite my 2hrs in the car, I managed 90oz of water! Fasted 18hrs, as well. Shocked my 2 glasses of wine last night didn't cause a jump. I suppose there's always tomorrow. Today, because of the wine, my window will open several hours later. Oh well, I think I have enough morning meetings that will keep me busy for a good chunk of it. Also did measurements since I woke up a bit before my alarm and got myself a NSV (: Down half an inch on my hips and belly pooch area since my last measurements! For my eyes - They checked my vision before my contacts came out -- I'm already at 20/25. They don't typically see that result until the 1 month follow up. I'm ahead of schedule! I was previously 20/200 so its a huuuuge jump for 5 days, especially with the 5 day old contacts still in. Speaking of, I'm not just a big baby after all. My contacts were ripped! That explains why the pain seemed so bad compared to what others described in their recovery blogs and videos. From here, my vision will come and go in waves as the top layer continues to heal, settle in, and the "scar tissue" gets smoothed over by my eyelid via blinking. It will gradually get clearer and crisper over the next couple of weeks. They say up to 6 months for eyesight to stabilize at its absolute best. I'm hoping stabilize (no more waves) within the month with just gradual sharpness after. I'm cleared to drive regardless so life can resume as normal again.
    03/04 - I found out my scale likes to lie. I stepped on the scale and ended up losing my balance a bit. The scale registered 147.7 while I was stable. Lost balance while it was analysing my BF%/water%/bone density. Number on the scale startled me? Not sure. So I stepped back on to get the full analysis. 144.0. Weird. Nothing changed. Off and on again. 144.0. Welp, now when I get a really high number that doesn't seem right, I know to get off and on again a few times. Up a bit, but I'm not worried about it. Dinner was late and a bit heavier. Went back for seconds on a really delicious salad (broccoli, shredded carrots, apple, cranberry, bacon and dressing). Fasted 14hrs, not sure water, somewhere between 70-90oz. Leaving early (9/10am) tomorrow (day off). Only have pajama bottoms and daily stuff/meds to pack. If I can't post before we leave, I'll try to manage in the vehicle. Note to self: buy dramamine
    03/05 - Up a tad from having wings last night but still in my goal range so I'm alright with it. Sauces always get me with sodium. Fasted 16.5hr, drank 95oz water. Today is a travel day and eating out. I imagine the next 3 days will be eating out. Will portion and try to make healthy choices. Remembering I'll be wearing a dress Sat evening that reveals my belly bulge will help me. Don't want any crazy bloat! I'll also have 5 days before end of the round to recover, so that's also helpful. There's still a chance to meet my goal therefore I need to be on my best behavior! If I frame it in my mind correctly, I think I can stick to it.
    03/06 - No scale
    03/07 - No scale
    03/08 - Not bad! Not for 3 days involving a few drinks and only take out food (: I played it very safe and limited myself on both food and alcohol so I didn't have to struggle as much this coming week to find my balance and get back on track. I think it worked out well. Shouldn't be too difficult as I suspect a lot of this is water weight -- once I get back to drinking my 90oz, a lot will wash away
    03/09 - And back down. Wasn't expecting to go down so quick. Especially since I broke my fast at 13.5hrs yesterday. I was carsick Sunday and didn't eat much at all so I realized I'd be helping my body to refuel it properly before forcing fasting on myself. Today I will resume my 16-17hr fast schedule. Got my 90oz in, thankfully, and feeling much better from that. Did go outside to pull up the last of my jalapenos that died during our crazy winter storm (I was hoping they'd survive) and repotted my tomatoes and anaheim chilis. I still have baby sprouts of habanero not quite ready for repotting and once my seeds come in the mail, I have jalapeno and scotch bonnet peppers to start on. A late start on those, but I didn't have the room to start them all at once! Especially since this weekend, the kiddos come for spring break and I'm using the daughter's room as my seed starting room.
    03/10 - Normal fluctuation, I'm still at goal. Just need to hold on to that. Fasted 17.25hr, drank 90oz.

    03/02 - 5,739! Didn't expect that at all
    03/03 - 4,887.... Wish I had remembered to pay attention before I was settled in bed. Could've walked in place.

    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.

    **Comments and steps apply to previous day**


    Rnd 143 SW 120.0
    3/3 120.0 No TMI x 2 or 3 days plus DH is driving me crazy. Golden Corral this afternoon. Right now I could NOT care less about food. UGH Taking neighbor to have first cataract surgery in an hour.
    3/4 120.0 I am tired of food!
    3/5 119.5 Well that’s a little better.
    3/6 118.5
    3/7 118.5
    3/8 119.0 Yesterday we went to Roberto’s Taco Shop and I had a breakfast burrito egg, bacon, cheese on the world’s largest and thinnest tortilla. It really wasn’t that good. Last night was a rough night. Mentally kicking myself until 2AM. Today going to lunch with neighbors. UGH.
    3/9 118.5 I seem to have lost interest in food yet if something tastes good, I eat.
    3/10 119.0 🤷‍♀️
    3/11 118.5. I can’t believe how quickly these rounds pass!cqs1zhkpeeac.jpeg
    I’m going to try to make myself exercise 3 days per week. I have lots of exercise DVDs plus the computer. I also hope to get back to extended fasts from Tuesday PM to Thursday PM. Details one day late.
    3/2 4493 steps about double a “normal” day
    3/3 3679 steps, not bad considering we spent over 4 hours sitting in the car, waiting due to someone else’s surgery having problems.
    3/4 3338 steps, neighbor was feeling draggy and wasn’t sure she could do it. Really sucking in her O2.
    3/5 4492 steps, neighbor still a bit draggy but we went around a slightly larger block. We will try to walk twice today.
    3/6 Temp was glorious yesterday but neighbor deemed it too windy to walk.
    3/7 5228 I don’t mind walking in Walmart. Neighbor walked in the casino and came home +$200.
    3/8 2683 steps walking into and out of the casino for lunch.
    3/9 2545 I did nothing, cool and windy
    3/10 2153 Out to eat with friends for lunch. Cool, windy, drizzly. Spent time sewing.

    03/03 194.8 Definitely had a gain. I've been in quarantine for today starts day 7. My daughter came up positive my son is negative I am going crazy in the house. Sorry I've been absent all I do is clean cook. Going nuts!
    03/04 DNW
    03/05 DNW
    03/06 194.1 not only am I hungry my schedule is off. I have stopped logging food. My sleep schedule is off, I am tired of being in the house. Skipped over some workouts, very little walking. We've only gone outside if the weather is warm enough.
    03/07 DNW
    03/08 195.1
    03/09 DNW
    03/10 DNW
    03/11 196.1 Back to work. Son is still quarantine. Twin sister is sick. I am now heavier than I started in January. Hopefully I can get back into some good habits now that I can leave the house. No hugs just some serious work. I have been making more effort this week that last week but the scale is continuing to creep up. Stress is a factor for weight gain, I have been stressed and indulging in comfort food. Today is new day. I am already hungry but I am drinking plenty of water. I will eat a balanced lunch and eat some of my healthier snacks.

    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-> 117.4 ->116.6 -> 116.8 ->115.6 -> 116.6
    Goal weight for this round: Maintain in the 115-117ish range.


    03/03 116.6 Yesterday was a good day food wise, I just didn’t have time to post yesterday. Maintaining has been working well for me and allows me to have a splurge on the weekends while and eating with a manageable deficit during the week. Some days the deficit is more than others and I don’t stress if I eat at maintenance during the week.
    This challenge will be interesting because it is during the time I hit my lowest weight for the month. It was great to see 114ish last week and maybe I’ll see it this round too?
    I got some yoga in this morning for about 20ish minutes and plan on using the spin bike later today.
    03/04 116.0 Busy day but wanted to at least post this. Got some yoga and a walk in.
    03/05 115.4 Another super busy day with work. Food has been good so far. Planning to go out to eat tonight and enjoy a couple beverages.
    03/06 DNW Going out to dinner last night with my husband was fun. I didn’t go too crazy but it was probably salty. I ended up having three boneless buffalo chicken wings, so they were the size of nuggets and I have ¾ of a grilled chicken quesadilla. I was full by the end of it and didn’t get dessert. I had a few drinks throughout the night. My husband wants Thai for lunch but I’m not going to get it. I’m kind of just craving toast with cream cheese, a couple of eggs, and maybe fruit for breakfast and then for lunch I’ll have yogurt with fruit and cashews.
    Work has been stressful recently so I’m also working on the way I respond to stressful situations.
    03/07 Did not weigh. Food was much better today. It’s been a nice weekend and feeling ready to start the new work week. Hopefully, it will be less stressful than the past few weeks. Fingers crossed.

    03/10 115.8 It’s been a busy week and my time just slips away from me. My food has been balanced which is a good thing. I’ve also been tracking my water intake for March and that fluctuates, but I usually at least hit the minimum ounces of water a day for my weight. My mom has been in the hospital for almost 2 weeks now with GI(nausea and vomiting issues and not sure what it truly is but I think it’s related to some other things she deals with health wise.
    03/11 115.4 It was a good day overall today. Food has been on point as well. Looking forward to the year to come with my job. I had my 1 year eval and I’m looking forward to see how I develop and grow over the next year. I’m looking forward to the goals we set and feel supported in meeting them. So, it was a happy day. 😊

    03/03 20ish minutes of yoga and plan to use the spin bike for 20ish minutes
    03/04 Yoga and a walk.
    03/05 HIIT yoga session today and the spin bike. The yoga video was just a little bit faster paced which was a fun change.
    03/06 Not sure what I’m going to do yet.
    03/07 Managed to do a 60 minute ride but didn’t do yoga, but I will do some stretching before bed.
    03/08 Didn’t post 8-10 but managed to do yoga each day and the spin bike on the 8th and 9th.

    03/10
    03/11 Enjoyed the walk from the garage to my office (about a mile total) and then my hisband and I went for a short walk of about a mile or so when he got home. I didn’t get a spin bike ride in because I chose to go for the walk with my husband. Today was the first day we’ve had in a long time where I could go outside with only a long sleeve shirt and not be cold! It was so nice!

    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!😷

    March 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:
    • 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.
    • 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.
    Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

    03/03 129.8 – 13.18 miles yesterday, ate well within calories & macros.
    03/04 130.2 – 11.91 miles walked yesterday, ate within all calories & macros. Did first volunteer session at vaccination centre, really enjoyed being able to get out, do something different and interact with people!
    03/05 131.4 - :( chocolate monster got me, enough said!! 11.94 miles walked yesterday.

    exercise.png

    03/06 131 – 11.8 miles walked yesterday & back to healthy eating.
    03/07 131 – 10.74 miles walked yesterday. Saturday is pizza & wine night, managed to stay just within calories, but fat & carbs over.
    03/08 130.2 – 13.25 miles walked yesterday, stayed well within calories & macros dispite Sunday roast lunch with all trimmings. First day of starting to get back to some normality in UK, step 1 is schools go back today & we're allowed to meet 1 person from another household outside for a picnic!
    03/09 130.8 – 10.49 miles walked yesterday, struggled foodwise!
    03/10 131.6 – 10.28 miles walked yesterday, met up with a friend and had a takeaway afternoon tea on a park bench; it was so good to catch up. I am struggling at the moment with staying under calories, had a stern talk with myself in bed last night!!
    03/11 130.8 - 11.12 miles walked yesterday. Back on track foodwise, walked to and from my volunteer session at the vaccine centre, but there was not much scope for steps whilst there. Today is set to be wet & very high winds, hope I can get a window to walk.
    03/12 130.8 – 11.48 miles walked yesterday & eating within limits. Not achieved my goal this round, could have been better, but could have been worse! Lets move on to the next round.

    March challenge – average steps for the last 10 days = 21,566, this has been slewed by a couple of particularly high days ( I normally aim for 19K steps ), during the challenge I aim to do an additional 5% which is a daily total of 23,723 – I'll do my best !!

    03/01 21,157
    03/02 26,594 - made conservative effort to do more steps after walking reckie to check how long it takes to walk to vaccination centre.
    03/03 24,433 – walked to & from vaccination centre, on feet through whole of session & kept walking during “slack” period.
    03/04 24,358
