Day/Weight/7-day Calorie Average/Comment

3/3 - 183 - 1620
We’re headed for the sunny mid-50s today — yay! I’m headed for one of my favorite parks for a walk this afternoon. I’m feeling energized!

3/4 - 183.2 - 1702
Back down to chilly for the next few days, but next week looks gorgeous, so there’s that. I need someone to drop me at an isolated cabin for a couple of weeks with my hiking boots, my writing implements, and just enough food to get by to break my evening snacking habit. Why is that so hard? I don’t have a step counter, but walked 3 miles. This spring & summer I’m aiming for my old 6-7 miles most days with longer weekly walks.

3/5 - 183 - 1686
I’ve been a lazy bum all morning, but am heading out for a walk in a few minutes. Happy Friday, my friends!

3/6 - 183.2 - 2156 🤯
I had a major relapse on the snack front yesterday — eeek. It will no doubt show on the scale tomorrow or Monday. No point beating myself up. I’m aiming to lower my calories today, and take a walk when it warms up a bit. It’s a bright, sunny Saturday here — I hope you’re all healthy and full of joy. 🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷

3/7 - 182.8 - 1452
Wow — I thought I’d shoot up today from Friday night’s snackathon. I’ll take it! I did have some air-popped popcorn last night, but my calories were low, and I was hungry. Fiber! My eating goals this week are to keep my calories <1500, increase protein to ~20-25% (been eating about 16%) and cut fat back to 30-35% (been eating ~40%). That leaves 40-50% carbs. Also more water — I usually drink a lot of water, but seem to have slacked off. I feel better when we’ll watered.

3/8 - 183 - 1497
Gorgeous day here, heading for the low 60s. Yay! Calories where I want them for two days — it’s a start. I’m itching to start working in the garden, but it’s really too early. I always want to jump the gun on the season!

3/9 - 182.6 - 1508
Another calorically reasonable day, and I walked 3.5 miles in the gorgeous spring weather yesterday. I also pulled a few weeds, so the gardening season has begun. ☘️🌹🌞 Sadly, it’s turning cold again for a few days, but then the forecast is looking lovely, which means less sitting around inside with food nearby!

3/10 - 182.8 - 1792
Gosh, these gorgeous days in the 60s are spoiling me — one more after today, then back to the 40s for a while. I’ve had several lovely walks the past few days and plan to head out to one of my favorite park trails this afternoon. I’m itching to start garden cleanup, but it’s too early — don’t want to take shelter away from little critters in the leaves and sticks.

3/11 - 183 - 2086
Went rogue last night. It’s ok. I get my second COVID vaccination this afternoon — yay! DH got his a couple weeks ago. We won’t be going nuts, but do feel a bit safer (or will in two weeks), and I look forward to getting together with small bands of vaccinated friends. I walked 3ish miles yesterday, and hope to sneak in a walk between rain showers today.

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.

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!
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.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/02 …..207.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/03 …..207.0 ….. Traveled yesterday afternoon and evening and I still show a drop. Some wise food choices while dining paid off. I am beginning to miss my Intermittent Fasting routine. It is impossible to practice this with the work crews here. I eat quickly in the morning before they get here so my sugar won’t drop while they are here. One man brings his wife and son every day who sit at my kitchen table. I won’t cook or eat in front of them so it makes it difficult. I am keeping some Premier Protein on hand in the fridge if they stay late and it gets bad. The real challenge is not to gorge myself with food when they all leave since I am so hungry. We all have our specific challenges and right now, that is mine. With very little breaks, the remodels of several areas will go on for months and months so planning is key. Temps have been warming up a touch but it is very unusual in March in my area. It has made everything sheets of ice and very dangerous. It is too early for spring so things will get cold and snowy again for a couple more months. It is just nice to see the sunshine.

03/04 …..208.4 ….. A severe glucose drop last night. I kept my cool pretty good. A bowl of cereal with milk very late night did not help my scale this morning, but it did fix the symptoms. Aiming for a well-balanced day today. Tomorrow is travel out-of-town for my appointment with attorney. Time to update my will. I haven’t made changes since my husband died 5 years ago. My children are all grown since I originally made my will which changes things. Also, with the recent sale of my two businesses, it really needs to be done. I will try to keep any luncheon choices reasonable.

03/05 …..208.4 ….. Small quantities but bad choices. Another glucose drop last night. This one was the type that makes you feel drunk. Woozy, unsteady on feet. Strange foot to floor sensations. Clouded thinking and judgement. High fall risk, must hold on to things because of staggering. Not as fast coming on as the feeding frenzy kind but something that has to be dealt with. Very cloudy vision. Strange thinking. Drunk is the only way I can describe it. This shows how out of shape my diet is (when too low calorie or carb puts me in this state). My body doesn’t want the (healthy) change. I will take it slow. Traveling today to work on having my will & trust updated along with some other legal matters. Lunch will be out-of-town. Everything is challenging right now.

03/06 …..208.4 ….. Went to my appointment yesterday to begin the process of updating my Will, my Trust, my Power-of-Attorney and my Advanced Directive. I was given some homework and my next appointment is March 17th. My luncheon out was light, I ate half and finished the other half for dinner. Bad snacks last night but my scale is steady. No glucose drops. I hope the lunch doesn’t creep up later in the week on the scale, as sometimes happens. I will try to keep it light today. I took my truck yesterday so I could get my new bathtub from Home Depot. That means one less out-of-town trip this month. A blessing for my waistline?


03/07 …..207.6 ….. That is more like it! There will be a family meeting today with my children in regards to my Will & Trust. It is part of my homework. We will have pizza takeout. The meeting is this evening. It will be impossible to cook anything major because my work crew is epected today (thus the meeting this evening after they leave.) I’ll be kicking the crew out by 5:00 so my meeting can be held at the kitchen table. This is a difficult meeting and moment for me. I don’t have much time or opportunity to eat during the day because of the remodel and work crew (just breakfast), so I will not be able to stress eat. That will help save the calories for dinner. In saying that, it reminds me that I do miss intermittent fasting. However, since I have to eat breakfast it makes it pretty impossible to fast. Sometimes the workers do not leave until 10 or 11 at night and as a diabetic, I could never fast that long (nearly 24 hours?). Doing my best with what I can, just like everyone else. Yes, we are all in a different boat, but we are in our boats together!

03/08 …..208.2 ….. This is how pizza looks on me. I kept my meal small but high calorie and high carbs combined foods are a ticking time bomb. I will try to be extra careful today though I must tiptoe around glucose drops which have plagued me again lately. I will work on the right balance today so I can stick to plan.

03/09 …..206.8 ….. Happy Dance!

03/10 …..204.8 ….. Wow! I did not expect that. Yesterday was not super active. I rented the movie “Music” for a movie night for just myself. With my son being autistic, I just had to see it. She was much more severe than my son and the film was very artsy but overall, pretty good. Certainly, the actress who played Music did a believable job. It was up for some of the recent Golden Globe awards so I was curious. However, not a movie I would need to see again. I did have a glucose drop that woke me up at 4:30 a.m. from a straight sleep. The drunken kind of drop which had to be dealt with but was not a super instinctive feeding frenzy. I dealt with it but worried about what the scale would bring this morning so I checked the weight multiple times. Shocked but grateful. I am feeling weak and a bit drunken this morning. Testing shows I’m not level again. Wow! How my body fights me when I try to adjust my foods. It really wants to be fat and diabetic! I will win this fight!

I am finally on a waiting list for the vaccination. I don’t know how long it may be. I am in a very small county and our health dept is shared by 6 (or more) counties so it is over an hour’s drive to the center they are just now setting up to use soon (according to the website). Also, a lower amount of shots being shipped to us because our population is much lower. But just knowing I am on a list now makes me feel better. I don’t feel safer yet till they poke me, just better. Happy hump day everyone!


03/11 …..206.2 ….. I guess two pounds down overnight is something I shouldn’t have believed anyway! I had a good day yesterday. Meals were in line with plan and more steps than usual. No TMI might explain. I am still down 1.2 lbs from my starting weight so goal has been met. Gotta keep my cool before the final weigh in tomorrow. Have a wonderful day everyone. The sun is shining here and melting some snow in northern Michigan USA.

03/12 …..xxxxx …..

03/01 – 11,051 Steps yesterday. The most steps in a very long time. Certainly the most since my retirement!
03/02 - 6,181 Steps yesterday. It was a busy day with the remodel. Full house.
03/03 - 4,937 Steps yesterday. Unexpected travel with lots of car rides. I keep my fitbit on my non-dominate wrist, not my ankle, so I know I actually got in over 10,000 with ALL the shopping. However, I had no time for any extra planned exercise yesterday so I am grateful for the steps in the big box stores.
03/04 - 6,589 It was a paperwork day. Not as much movement or as many steps as I would have liked.
03/05 - 4,276. Another paperwork day as I prepped for my attorney appointment today for my will & trust (and other matters). Travel today will bring light steps for tomorrow also.
03/06 - 7,489 Traveled but still got in some steps.
03/07 – 6,827 Steps. I should have tried harder. I probably could have gotten more in. I have been doing some planned stairs in the house though.
03/08 - 7,092 Steps. I had a sit-down meeting last night so getting more steps in was impossible. I am shocked, actually, that I got in this many!
03/09 - 8,217 Steps.
03/10 - 7,123 Steps. I had a movie night last night.
03/11 - 8,635 Steps and I worked for every one of them intentionally!

SW- 223.2lb
CW- 219lb
GW- 178lb

03/03 - 219lb No loss but stuck to my calorie goal yesterday despite succumbing to staff table treats. Didn’t eat an obscene amount, but need to stay away in future! Planning a first run post-Covid today which should be ‘interesting’
03/04 -218.2lb. That’s 5 pounds gone in 10 days. Real NSV last night, had a majorly stressful day at work which would usually have me reaching for the wine and rubbish food. Instead as soon as I got in I went for a run and made myself a healthy meal. Feel much better for it this morning.
03/05 -219.6lb. Muscles feel very sore this morning from the sudden increase in exercise, calories have been accurately recorded so I know this is likely to be water retention. Plan for today is to get through Friday without making poor food choices. Just because it’s Friday, doesn’t mean I ‘deserve’ a treat.
03/06 - 219.2lb. Muscles still very sore, but going to do a long walk today; drink plenty of water and choose healthy options all day. I feel really motivated at the moment.
03/07 -219.6lb. Was hoping to see the scale go down rather than up. However, I am not too fussed as I know that I have been sticking to my calories and getting some exercise in. Will only be a matter of time before it falls again.
03/08 - 218.5lb. Great to see the numbers fall, hope it continues for a couple more days. Quite low on my calories yesterday but high in fat (lamb fatoush to blame). Back to work properly today, got to make sure I combat stress with healthy alternatives and not to reach for the wine and unhealthy snacky food.
03/09 - 216.8lb. So happy to see the scale move the right way. Have been consistent in logging and making healthy choices. Hope to see the scale go down a couple more times this challenge.
03/10 -216.4lb. Had a strange eating day yesterday. Leftover Thai Salmon curry for lunch and then when I got home, my partner had made a broccoli soup for our 1 year old, which turned out to be utterly delicious. So I ended up snacking on that, leaving me unwanting a normal dinner. Ended up having healthy snack type things for dinner, leaving me feeling like I’d not been fed! Won’t be doing that again.
Anyway, a loss on the scale again which is good.
03/11 -217.4lb. Still feel bloated from having a late meal last night, I think that might have something to do with the ‘gain’. Also feel really hungover this morning, which is strange seen as though I haven’t had a drink since last weekend.
Going to drink plenty of water today to hopefully help flush out whatever is making me feel lethargic.

Goals for this round:

- Reach my goal weight

3/3 - 125.4 - 1769 calories - Rough night with multiple wake ups from the kids, so I was really dragging this morning. Seeing the low weight on the scale was a nice pick-me-up! (Coffee helped too 😂) Got a 45 minute workout in on Ring Fit this morning and will do a 2 mile walk with the dog tonight.

3/4 - 125.8 - 2162 calories - Tough day yesterday. I was tired and not feeling well from lack of sleep; the kids were fussy and since it was cold and grey the only activity we did was making chocolate chip cookies... with predictable results. I didn’t completely binge, but I ate more of them than I should have. Today is a new day, and one maintenance day will not stop me. I just have to make sure it is just ONE this round.

3/5 - 125.6 - 1701 calories - Much better day yesterday! Stuck hard to my calories and even played some Beat Saber so my deficit was a little higher than usual. We ordered takeout for dinner, and while I was careful to be reasonable with calories I’m sure the sodium was still sky-high. It might hit the scale in the next day or two.

3/6 - 125.4 - 1758 calories - Started feeling really bloated and uncomfortable last night right before dinner - not sure what I ate that caused it. Going for a walk and drinking a bunch of water helped, but I was still feeling it this morning. The day kind of got away from me which is why this post is so late. Got the groceries and my plan is all set for meal prep tomorrow.

3/7 - DNW - 1731 calories - Scale died this morning, just showing “Low” instead of a number. I’ve ordered a new battery and will pick it up today. I’m also all set to meal prep today - making chocolate banana overnight oats, asparagus bacon cheddar egg muffins and chicken chimichanga filling for this week as well as some lasagnas, marinated flank steaks and breakfast burritos to freeze.

3/8 - 125.8 - 1718 calories - Hoping this is hormonal variation, because I can’t think of another reason for the scale increase. I’ve been on track the past few days on calories, macros and workouts. I look forward to new Apple Fitness + workouts each Monday, and did a fun HIIT one this morning. I’ve just got to keep pushing forward and hopefully see a drop before the end of the round.

3/9 - 125.6 - 1857 calories - I know this routine now - TOM or ovulation triggering hunger and a scale increase, but it’s till so hard to just roll with it and eat at maintenance. I managed a small deficit and I made sure to get over 100 g of protein but I was still so hungry. Hopefully today will be easier - only a few days left in this round.

3/10 - 125.4 - 1860 calories - Returning to baseline on the scale and really going to try and stay the course the rest of this round. I’ve pre-logged my meals and snacks for today and will make myself stick to it. I did a 30 minute HIIT and a 10 minute core workout this morning - my walk last night was shorter than usual since it was pouring. I’m hoping to get 2 miles in tonight.

3/11 - 125.4 - 1691 calories - The last piece of my reward outfit came yesterday! I’ve had the top for weeks but the pants were back ordered. Now to hit my goal weight so I can wear them! I’m hoping for a drop tomorrow for the end of the round. Did a boxing workout this morning and will take the kids out to play this afternoon. My steps have been down (12-13K) the past few days so I’m aiming for 15,000 today.

Day/Weight/Comment
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.
03/08 DNW
03/09 116.6
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. 😊
03/12

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.
03/09
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!

Increase daily steps to 8000

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!

70 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

Day/Weight/Comment
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.



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

Over the 10 days, a big initial loss, followed by a week or so of oscillating around the same weight, losing and gaining the same half kilo...
Still, the overall result has been better than my target for the round, so mustn't complain!
Round 143 saw me go from 93.0 kg (205.0 lbs) to 91.4 kg (201.5 lbs) losing 1.6 kg (3.5 lbs).
On to round 144!

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




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?

03/12 - 197.6 - Really happy with this. After a few fluctuations, I slightly beat my target. ALSO - this weight puts my BMI at 29.9 (down from 33.3 in January), so no longer obese!

Start weight (31 August 2020): 349.2 lbs
Start weight for 143 challenge: 313.7 lbs
Aim for 12 March 2021 (end of 143 challenge): 311.7 lbs

03/03: 314.5 lbs - dammit, always going up on day one of the challenge!
03/04: 313.7 lbs - back down to where I started from, come on...
03/05: 313.1 lbs - this is good, keep going. Even though it's a Friday night!
03/06: 313.1 lbs - another good weigh in , want to see it come down though...:)
03/07: 311.3 lbs - wow, that's so good for my Sunday weigh in, huge achievement - hang on to it!
03/08: 311.3 lbs - hang in there, that's really good for a Monday morning.
03/09: 313.7 lbs - the best thing about tracking daily is that you can see the patterns, and this is the way it always goes, a bounce up mid week and then back down (and hopefully lower!) by each Sunday!
03/10: 313.1 lbs - coming back down again....
03/11: 313.1 lbs - I will be so gutted if I'm not lower tomorrow, I feel like I try so hard! Never mind, it's all about progress not perfection.
03/12: 312 lbs - I got below my goal earlier this week, but still, I'll take it! So that's 1.7 lbs down this challenge

Challenge 137: lost 1.5 lbs
Challenge 138: lost 2.6 lbs
Challenge 139: lost 2.7 lbs
Challenge 140: lost 1lbs
Challenge 141: lost 2 lbs
Challenge 142: lost 1.5 lbs
Challenge 143: lost 1.7 lbs
