JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ Round 156 (round 88 for me ) I continue to need this to help keep me on track!
@QuiltingJaine - thank you yet again for setting up the new challenge.
Challenge for this round is to continue yet again to work back towards maintanence – any loss will be a win! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Continue to wash hands, be kind, follow all latest Government guidelines in roadmap to normality for C-19 virus. Be positive for the future – I've had both of my vaccines, and after testing possitive 2 weeks ago am grateful that the vaccines ensured that I had the mildest of symptoms.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

21/07/18 72.9. 160.38 post party
Fingers crossed it falls off as quickly as it appeared. Monthly average wts is 159.1 which is too close to 160. I can feel I have a little more wt on my midsection & I don’t like how it feels. Kept calories low today, but fiber went way too high. Fat went down. Such a juggling game - difficult to figure it all out sometimes.

July focus:- maintain weight < 150 (I have been maintaining since November 2019)
- Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
- Gradually working my way down to being consistently under 140lbs
I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 156- 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.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.

R156: Time to make some progress and strive for <200 in July! Quit this yo-yo cycle.
Exercise Goal for this round: Bike, planks, squats & hand weights at least once per week. Walk the dog 100 miles in July!
🎯Mini Goal: 204.x (Repeat until I hit it!)
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
7/11 205.4 Walk 2.75 miles, trimmed tree limbs, 1678 cal, 81 net carbs. Better start this round. No plans for travel or parties this time around so I have no excuses but to hit my mini goal.
7/12 204.9 Walk 2 miles, bike 10 min, plank, squats, hand weights, 1757 cal, 89 net carbs, AF.
7/13 205.2 Walk 3.8 + .7 + .4 miles, 1899 cal, 92 net carbs, 1 glass wine. Teeter tottering on the edge wishing to push downward.
7/14 207.0 Walked .9 + 1.75 miles, swimming, 1565 cal, 68 net carbs, AF. Hiking in Brazos State Park & swimming to entertain my daughter-in-law’s 5 yr old niece that is visiting. Came too close to an alligator! Wow that is a strange & disappointing jump up on the scale this morning! Could sweet potato fries do that much damage at lunch?
7/15 207.2 Walked 4.5 miles, bike 30 min, squats, hand weights, cal, net carbs, AF. Chili for lunch and Torchy’s for dinner. Walked the dog to my home owners’ assoc. local lap pool (heated during the winter) to see if my key card still works which was much further than I thought but a nice walk (better than jumping in the car!). It is still active so I guess I need to consider adding swimming laps to my routine. The dog & I were both exhausted walking in the heat but we beat the rain! Need to make a point to get out earlier in the morning.
7/16 207.4 WI at 4am. Walk 2 + 1.3 miles, weeding/gardening, 2187 cal, 141 net carbs, AF (Neon Zebra margarita mocktail). Pizza for lunch & quesadillas for dinner. Need to clean up my meal planning.
7/17 206.2 Walk 1 + 1.3 miles, 1892 cal, 95 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
7/18 207.0 Walk 1.3 miles , 1511 cal, 83 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Nice morning breakfast outside then farmers market with DD & her husband & dogs. A pretty lazy day but did throw out more stuff as I anticipate a possible move. Also sorted more of my kids’ medical, scouting and school records along with their birth, baptism, lifeguarding & other certificates to pass along to them. The idea of moving elsewhere away from the kids and all the community I’ve built up over the past 30 years in Houston is starting to stress me out. Drinking more, not paying attention to the meal planning, not sleeping well (dreams of what if) and in general riddled with anxiety.
7/19 205.9 Walked 3.2 miles, 1480 cal, 76 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Good day. Kids came over to cook burgers for lunch and chat.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/11 - 182 - Eventho I’ve had no weight change to speak of, my clothes are fitting looser.

7/13 - 182 - Expected.
7/14 - 181 - Have to wait a few days to see if this is the start of a downward trend.
7/15 - 181 - Starting a new diet plan today - going to do it for 2 weeks (at least.)
7/16 - 180 - Nice to see movement on the scale.
7/17 - 179 - Happy - hope to delve deeper into the 170’s. (No more 180’s)

7/19 - 146.0 - Water still not 100%, but better. Need to stick to it in the afternoon. I did end up accidentally falling asleep for about an hour and a half right before dinner which didn't help me get water in before bed. Oops. Did my introduction run/walk to Zombies, Run! C25K. I didn't realize there'd be running involved in that first one. I about died. I'm slow getting up and moving today, been so tired lately and not sure why. I'm now dressed and waiting for the pup to calm down and cool off from her "vicious" attack (barking relentlessly) at the dog across the street. She thinks she's mean... The other dog is so used to her non stop barking, it ignores her entirely and drives her batty. Quite entertaining, though I feel for our neighbors so I bring her inside whenever she starts in. Once she's calm, we will head out for Week 1 Day 1.
7/20
Previous Day's Comments7/11 - Well, I tried to post yesterday but things were hectic and I still didn't get all my errands done. Oh well. I definitely need more water. This week at work was hectic as I was all over the place and didn't know whether to bring my water or not so I didn't (less to carry) and then ended up sticking around a different office with no water ): I don't even know who I'm shadowing this week for work so I'm not sure about my water intake going forward. The next 4 days will be hit and miss when it comes to posting. I'll do my best, but can't promise. I'm still weighing and aiming for good habits, though. I'll be back Friday, for sure, as it's my day off. HAVE A GREAT ROUND!
7/12 - DNP
7/13 - Pre-TOM bloat is hitting me hard today. Yesterday was more sitting than anything with online training to complete. Today, hopefully, will be a little bit more active. Feeling much less sleepy (though I hated my alarm going off) which is good. Yesterday was plain horrible how sleepy I was all day. Hopefully I can drink more water today. I tried yesterday but I was so tired I zoned out and didn't think about it. Leftover homemade shrimp alfredo for lunch. Meatball subs for dinner. Trying to make it a good day.
7/14 - TOM bloat and heaviness going down. Still working on getting more water. Been super challenging since I'm not stationary. BF Granddad died 2 days ago so yesterday he and the kids left. Be back (planning) Monday so its just me and the pup this weekend. Work today, off tomorrow to rest and relax. Need to go shopping for more veggie ideas for this weekend for me.
7/15 - Managed 65 oz water yesterday so I feel like I'm making some progress on that. Last ate about 2pm and had bone broth for dinner. Will aim for 2-3pm today bone broth only and see how I feel. Time to catch up on everybody's posts!
7/16 - Fasted just over 24 hours but was very hungry and got a headache. Even after eating my headache continued into today. It's mostly gone now. Fasted just over 16 hours today. Behind on water today, but playing catch up now.
7/17 - Didn't quite catch up on water and was so hungry all day after I broke my fast. Was also a lazy day, though I did take the pup for a super short walk at dusk. Mosquitos were eating us both alive though, so we came inside. As soon as my phone charges (it didn't overnight, not sure why), I'm going to go on my first Zombies, Run! mission. This is 22 minutes of running/jogging/walking (whatever we choose) to learn about the program. This one is a C25K version but I hope I'll stick to it better than the original C25K app I used. It is 8 weeks long but with my work schedule, I know I can't run 3 days a week but thankfully I have 18 weeks until the run to build up.

7/19:172 (drizzly day; except for the mosquitoes, who don't appear to mind a bit of drizzle, it was a great morning for my "big" 25 minute jog (very slow; don't be impressed! I'm not! I don't know if the university will have its 5-km race this October or not, but if it does, I'm going for it. I did it years ago, finishing 59th out of 100 runners, at 31 minutes (a personal best) and feeling proud until a fellow employee (who did not run the race) said "never mind, you'll do better next year." Notice that I called her a fellow employee and not a friend. Who says crap like that to somebody? Having trouble sticking to my diet lately. Though I am still doing it, it seems like more of a chore. I'm probably just bummed out because I have to go back to in-person teaching starting the middle of August. Don't get me wrong - I love the students (or almost all of them!). It's the rest of the job that sucks, the endless forms, the bullying and disrespect and lack of support I get from the powers that be and from other department members (almost all of them men). My "allies" were all in another department, and they all retired last year! A fat over-sensitive 65-year old idealistic vegan woman doesn't stand a chance. I guess I have given up trying to fit in, but at least I can control whether I'm fat or not!
7/20:7 -
No access to a scale, but plenty of access to food and snacks. And, plenty of access to great exercise. I am sure I am running at a net deficit of my daily goal for calories. We are with friends at high altitude. Lots of exercise, but difficult for the next day or two here. Got really light-headed yesterday on a bike ride.9

End of 10 day challenge Goal: 245
Drink a minimum of 64 oz water a day
Swim, Circuit, Hike (5x minimum)
7/11 - 249.8 (+2.6) I had my weekly indulgence meal on Friday which should cause some weight gain, but I was a little surprised by this much. Finished a 3.7 mile hike this morning.
7/12 - 249.2 (+2.0) Slowly moving back down. 1 hour of circuit training scheduled for today. Staying focused.
7/13 - 247.6 (+.4) Finally, my weight is heading back down. Today, I’m headed to a pool to swim laps. I haven’t done this for many years, so I’m a bit nervous and don’t know quite how long I’ll be able to keep going. It’s a good test and hopefully a fun was to exercise that I can add to my routine.
7/14 - 245.6 (-1.6) Swimming laps was a challenge, but I did 22 laps in a 25 meter length pool. I felt great all afternoon Stomach a little upset today for some reason, so this weight might go up a little once things settle down.
7/15 - 245.8 (-1.2) Relaxed yesterday after not feeling very well. Planning another lap swim this afternoon. Hoping to improve my distance and form.
7/16 - 246.4 (-.8) I’m gaining more confidence in the pool. I can’t wait until I can do continuous laps. I gained a little weight today, but not too worried. It’s nice not to panic when an occasional blip happens.
7/17 - 248.2 (+1.0) Bouncing around a bit this week. I had my indulgence meal last night. With only a few days left in the challenge, I’m hoping to end below my starting weight. Still feeling good and motivated.
7/18 - 247.2 (0) At least I’m back to where I started. I was definitely hoping to lose a bit more in ten days, but I’m hanging in there.A little frustrated but focused. My sister and I are hiking today and we usually cover 3-4 miles. The weather and mountains will be beautiful!
7/19 - 245.8 (-1.4) Yes!! I was waiting for this to happen over the last few days. Bouncing up and down definitely adds to the stress. I’m focused on logging accurately so I have a true picture and can make any necessary adjustments. One more day to go in this ten day challenge which has been really helpful, especially seeing how everyone is progressing.8 -

@chublet25 Look at how far you've come!! I'm always amazed at what people say when they aren't even willing to get out there and do it themselves. These days I pretty much ignore what others say and am just pretty darn proud of myself. I was at the pool twice last week in a swimsuit and in public and I wasn't even self conscious. (Which was a bit of a surprise to me, actually.) I was there doing it for myself and while I was awkward swimming, I was so excited that my body can do amazing things, even bounce back from the way I've treated it over the years. Rooting for you!!7

7/11 - 189 - 1623
Sat. nights seem to be craving/over eating time for me. Oh well. I just finished reading Burn: New Research Blows the Lid Off How We Really Burn Calories, Lose Weight, and Stay Healthy by Herman Pontzer, PhD. Pontzer is a Associate Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University, Associate Research Professor of Global Health at the Duke Global Health Institute, and an internationally recognized researcher in human energetics (basically how we burn calories). I found it fascinating. (Full disclosure — my background is in cultural anthropology, so I lean that way!) Burn is not a “how to lose weight” book, but the science he discusses is certainly applicable to our mutual quests here. Some reviews complain that there’s “too much science,” and there is quite a bit of chemistry and physiology in one or two chapters, but Pontzer explains things clearly, and the scientific grounding is exactly what appeals to me. Anyway, I thought I’d mention it in case anyone might be interested. If you listen to podcasts you can also find quite a few interviews with Pontzer that boil down much of the info.

Fresh peaches — yum! I made a peach galette yesterday, and plan to have a piece for lunch. 😁 The calories aren’t bad if not added onto a regular meal day. And the peaches are so good! I split a 25# Peach Truck box with a friend, so may need to freeze a few to keep them from going bad. Did I mention how good they are?
7/13 - 189 - 1683
Rainy days. At least the flowers and trees are getting a good watering!
7/14 - 189 - 1691
Well, I’m nothing if not consistent so far this round! I can’t seem to cut my calories back to where I want them/need them. Maybe I should try for smaller reductions each round until I’m down to ~1450. So I’ll aim for 1600 the rest of this round. Not so daunting.
7/15 - 188.4 - 1841
Weird. Calories up, weight down. Ok by me!
7/16 - 188.6 - 2014
Ooops. Darn food! Doing better today.
7/17 - 189 - 1827
Not doing so well with the calories. Two words — peach cobbler. Plus less activity as it’s been raining pretty steadily for several days. Not right now, though, so I’m off for a walk. Enjoy your Saturday!
7/18 - 188.4- 1873
Ate a lot, but I worked 3+ hours in the garden, digging and replanting a few plants, weeding (big job after all the rain,), mulching…. More today before the heat returns. With all the terrible heat and floods and fires these days, I hope you’re all safe and whole.
7/19 - 188.4 - 1607
Better on calories. It’s a gorgeous day, so I’m off to walk on the river greenway. Can’t believe we’re at the end of this round!
7/20 -9 -
183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever - (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)
Round 156 Goals: 80oz water; row 30 mins, most days; free-weights; eat vegetables/fruit; IF most days; no sugar; Calorie/Carb cycle between 1000 to 2000 calories each day with an average between 1200 - 1500.
Previous days' posts:7/11 - 171.7 I'm not surprised at finally dropping to 171.X, it's been a long-time coming after bouncing around 172 to 174 for a while. This gives me hope that my wanting to hit the 160's this round may be possible but any loss will be a good loss.
7/12 - 171.7 Very glad to see that 171.x stuck around for 2 days!
7/13 - 171.5
7/14 - 171.1 You know how after so many weeks sticking with your plan and you're losing weight and you feel mentally and physically strong, and you say to yourself, this is it, I'm going to do it this time, and ever so slowly, you revert back to old habits and before you know it you're back up and playing catchup (and pissed at yourself, even though you try telling yourself it's okay, it's a journey, it's a lifestyle).
I'm at that really good place AGAIN - feeling strong mentally and physically - and I'm trying to keep in mind what derailed me in the past and keep focused. I just don't want to go through that song and dance anymore. I think what might be the difference this time is that I'm having health problems directly related to my weight gain and unhealthy habits. The other reason I might can do it this time is I am just so damn tired of it, I want to feel light on my feet when I hike, kayak, bike, etc., and I want to show myself I can do it.
And lastly, it's this forum and all of you. In the past, I would plan out on a calendar 3lbs X how many ever weeks, actually thinking I could or should lose 3lbs a week (setting myself up for failure). I also used to think one or two days of eating over my calorie limit was a failure and a reason to binge for weeks before getting back on it. My more realistic outlook and not jumping ship over a few extra calories is a direct result of all of you! I've learned so much and have been so inspired by all your daily posts and progress with weight loss, other goals, NSV's and your perseverance and positive attitudes. Thank you!
I will succeed and X months from now (or even if a year from now) I will be a healthier and happier me! Thanks for listening to my ramblings and letting me air them out here!

Day/Weight/Comment
07/10 …..197.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/11 …..197.6 ….. Same weight as yesterday. I was thrilled to get to 197 point anything but now it is hanging on too long and even fluctuating in a not so good way some days. Time to make some more real and lasting progress this round. Good luck everyone!
07/12 …..195.8 ….. The scale finally budged (and in the right direction!). Sometimes I forget that it takes it few days to see changes (both good and bad). Yesterday was a good day although water and movement was a bit insufficient. Meals were on target. I am going to run with the ball today and remember that every day matters. I have a lot of travel and social engagements that often derail me (most of us do!) I’ve got to allow these days that will be spent at or near home count!
07/13 …..195.2 ….. I ate very very late last night so I am only too happy to still see progress on the scale. The calories weren’t bad but the sodium was probably through the roof. Pushing water today!
07/14 …..196.0 ….. Up a bit from sodium for the last two nights. I’ve got to start choosing something that isn’t filled with salt when I get hungry. My weakness is sweets though and I’ve been avoiding that successfully. However, today is a short 25 mile road trip out of town to take my son and his new friend to the Dairy Queen. I will have lunch with them but I will try to choose wisely to allow for a bit of ice cream. I will also try to get in some yard walking and stair climbing in the house today. Workers will be here this afternoon so I can’t go far. Water…water…water. I am still down from the start of round and my trending weight continues to go down. I’ve got to get that BMI down though. I am still at over 32. Obese. A lot to work on during this long journey, but I’m up for the challenge.
07/15 …..196.8 ….. Drats! Dairy Queen is bad, Very Very Bad. I checked the nutritional labels last night (after the trip, why oh why not before?). Did you know that a medium turtle pecan Blizzard has 900 Calories???? OMGosh! So I had one single burger and the blizzard. The rest of the day was great. Over 10,000 steps. A short walk too. My calories in were still less than my calories burned but still a gain. I don’t always understand that. I will say no TMI x2 now and I know that water retention is always a contender too. We shall see what tomorrow brings. Today will be a redemption day. The good news, my trending weight is still going down.
07/16 …..195.6 ….. Goodbye Sodium and water retention. I expected this whoosh! I had a very low calorie day yesterday while staying thoughtful to carbs. It payed off.
07/17 …..195.4 ….. I bent down (without thought) to tighten my sandal straps yesterday. When I was done I realized I had bent in a fluid motion, no effort, no strain. No hefty breathing when done. No feeling like my head was going to explode. No belly got in the way. Big belly is still here but it must be smaller. I need to start measuring again (I was faithful with it before Covid). Wow, I actually fixed my straps like a normal healthy person! If that is not motivation, I don’t know what is! Today will be a good day!
07/18 …..194.8 ….. Yesterday I logged my food for the first time since before Covid. I had been keeping track in my head but that is not always accurate. Best to have the real and complete stats! I had to change my macros around and may have to play with them a bit to get them right, but I feel like it’s a brave move I was ready for again. It’s like looking in a mirror when you follow your daily intake and macros. I am finally ready for it. My biggest fear is that I don’t always make the healthiest choices even if I am within my goals. I need to take that head-on!
07/19 …..194.0 ….. This may be artificially low due to extra low calorie yesterday. I ate so late I just couldn’t fit in all the food I’d planned for the day before bed. I scrubbed down the outside of my house yesterday which burned a lot of calories. Also some gardening and general yard work. I nice little hike yesterday too. Low cal minus Extra burn equals a loss but will it last? Almost to the end of the round. Where did the time go? Summer is going by too fast!
07/20 …..xxxxx …..

@GrandmaJackie @coblujay @fmfdfa2020 @tiabirdie56 @deepwoodslady @musicsax @lilylady3k @sheilaboneham (LOL at ketojaine) and anyone I have missed
Thank you all! I do feel fabulous and now feel like making my own clothes again - including some more form fitting things instead of the small “tents” I have been wearing. I can’t wait to get on a cruise ship and have a cruise elegant night. Our cruise pals and another couple were so negative when I stated this. Male cruise pal and DH insisted that “you need carbs.” No, there are no essential carbohydrates. If your body needs glucose, your liver can make it. Again, I must thank Grandma Jackie for continuing the thread after Cynda63 and everybody else who started a round until Grandma Jackie said she would do it. I would not have succeeded without this accountability.7 -

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.

7/11--212.5 Went out for a hike yesterday and the puppy did great. Then hubby and I went out for lunch yesterday at a hamburger place we hadn't been to in a long time, and let's just say that my body isn't used to all that heavy food any more, but this morning I am feeling much better. Trainer day today.
7/12--212.0 High carb day yesterday and sore from yesterday's workout, so expect an uptick tomorrow. Will be taking it easy today, just a couple of walks with the dog.
7/13--213.1 There is the uptick I expected.
7/14--212.0 There goes the water weight from yesterday. Took the dog out for a long walk yesterday evening and just let the dog sniff most of the walk, it was so relaxing.
7/15--212.3 High carb day yesterday. Went to trainer this morning and had another tough workout.
7/16--212.7 Normal upswing from yesterday's workout and high carb day from 2 days ago. Going out to dinner tonight with my husband for the 1st time in about 1 1/2 years. We are going to one of our favorite restaurants that we had regularly gotten takeout from during the shutdown, but it is so much nicer to actually go out and eat, we can't wait.
7/17--212.9 Had a great dinner last night, it was so nice to go out. Going out for a trail walk with my dog walking group today and then going to work on renovating the laundry room.
7/18--212.0 There goes the water weight from the last couple of days. Went to see trainer today.

These are Big Goals for me, but I suspect that they are achievable.
Mini goal-To become Overweight! I'm 4 pounds away, so I hope to achieve this goal sometime in July.
long term goal-to reach normal on the BMI scale in 2021. My son tells me that if he reaches for the moon, at least he'll and among the stars. I'm borrowing his motto.
longer term goal-to reach mid range normal on the BMI scale in 2022.
even longer term goal-to maintain normal range on the BMI scale in 2022 forward.

7/11 206 I'm 206 back in business, as I've been traveling. I got a scale from Costco today as I'd been without for a while. I'll take that pound + loss as I've been to a wedding, and then driven 10 hours the other day (yes-I ate at McDonalds while driving from New Mexico to Denver!) I've eaten better since arriving in Denver. And am about to be on my way to Minnesota. I'm 4 pounds away from being overweight! So I hope this mini goal will keep me focused while aiming for these Big Goals. I can reach them.
7/13 210 Really? Up 4 pounds from sitting in a car all day, eating Junk food on the road?
7/14 I swam at the Y. Nice to be swimming laps again with the post covid lockdown lifting! the hot tub there is the icing on the cake.
7/15 207.4 Not too bad of an increase after a few days on the road. Adios to quick stops at McDonalds! Back to preparing my own food, despite my little brothers penchant for chocolate. We're now stopping for several months at my brother's place in Minnesota. Yeah for my food scale, my scale for weighing myself (not only my food), and a kitchen for my own food prep! Now to put it all to use in my declining weight over the next few months. Revised goal for this challenge is to get back to where I was when I started this challenge (206). Mini summer goal is still to become overweight (5.4 pounds to goal) then on to Onederland. It's all doable this summer! Salads, guacamole, hummus and protein- here I come!
My left arm is sore from swimming laps yesterday. Taking it easy today to et my muscles heal. Perhaps going from chilling in a car for 10 hours a day, to swimming 45 minutes is not easing into an exercise regimen when in your late 60s!

12: 206.9 🥚It's been challenging for me to keep any kind of healthy routine with the kids home from school. Today is my day 1 to turn this around before any more time passes. My weight is up, but taking into consideration that I'm in my ovulation week this will likely drop quickly by the end of the round.
13: 204.6 🥚 Heading out the door for day 2 at the gym. Really happy with my how yesterday went with elliptical, IF, supplements, and 88oz of water. Could've done better on carbs, but had the meal planned/purchased before I decided to get back on track.
14: 204.9 🥚 Small uptick is almost certainly from water retention. My muscles are very sore today from two consecutive days at the gym after taking a few weeks off. I also did a full body facia blasting session last night. Today is a rest day from the gym and blasting.
15: 204.9 🥚 Still sticking to my healthy routine. By Sunday, I should see I significant drop.
16: 205.6 🥚 Rolled my left ankle pretty badly yesterday. It's bruised and swollen, but I can walk almost normally. Lots of ice, arnica, and ibuprofen. No gym for at least a couple of days. Had a few drinks with friends last night and a little bit of bar food. Not even worried about the gain. It'll be gone soon. Had a fun night, and that's the important part to me.
17: DNW 🥚 Got stung by something last night while sitting at a friend's house. Not positive what it was, but I had a pretty significant reaction within a couple minutes. Most of my forearm was red with a big welt. Then I started to feel really weird, thought I may have a sudden fever because I had cold sweats, my heart rate was 121 (which I didn't know until checking Fitbit this morning), told my friend that something was wrong and that I needed to get inside to the couch. Apparently, after that I stood up, took a couple of steps up onto her front stoop, and stumbled into the front doorway, hitting my head and scraping my knee as I tried to catch myself from completely falling down. She said I kind of crumpled into a sitting position on the stoop and was briefly responsive but then completely fainted. I remember coming to and asking what just happened. She called 911 and had someone come check on me, but thankfully I was feeling much better even in the few minutes it took them to get there. I later ended up having hives on both wrists and my hands were very itchy until I iced them. I've never fainted in my life and have never had a systemic reaction to any type of insect sting or bite, so I'm hoping to see a doctor on Monday for some follow up. Taking it easy and tracking the continual growth of the welt on my forearm today while I get lots of rest, benadryl, and ice.
18: 208.0 So much for a significant drop by today. It's been a rough couple of days. Between inflammation from my rolled ankle and probably the sting, laying in bed unable to get up and move because of rolled ankle, and not eating well for a couple days I guess I'm not surprised by the gain. I'm feeling pretty down from all this, but I'm hoping I'll be mobile again tomorrow or Tuesday.
19: 206.7 Got in to see the on-call Dr at the local clinic this morning, picked up a pack of EpiPens and got scheduled for allergy testing. They said they have to wait at least 6 weeks to see me to make sure that whatever I reacted to is completely out of my system. I had no idea it could take that long! Thank you @tiabirdie56 , @fmfdfa2020 , @chublet25 , & @quiltingjaine for the info and kind words. I really appreciate the support. Sorry if I missed anyone.
