Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 171
Replies

@musicsax @deepwoodslady It was truly amazing and made me feel so grateful for being out there yesterday morning. It was really cool to see it evolve from being black skies to that over the course of my run.
I think the universe knew I needed something like that to lift me back up.5 -

12/8 205.4 (-1.0) Swam yesterday. I swim an hour of laps and my time is faster. I swam 100 yards averaging 4’14”. When I started swimming in July, it took me 10’52”. Today is no organized exercise. My son flies in tomorrow for a long weekend. Can’t wait to see him!
12/9 205.0 (-1.4) A busy day today, but I plan to swim in between everything on my schedule. Eating and exercise will probably be a little off with company over the weekend, but I’m planning to stay on track with the exception of one indulgence meal.
12/10 206 (-.4) I was hungry yesterday and polished off some salted roasted almonds last night. I felt a little nauseous afterwards. I did not get my swimming in. I’m heading to Lion King tonight with my son and his friends and we are going out to dinner before the show. That will be my indulgence meal, so there will be more of a bump tomorrow.
12/11 207.4 (+1.0) Enjoyed the night out at the Lion King. I swam yesterday morning so did manage to get some good exercise in, along with about 7,500 steps. So I’m hoping this extra weight drops off quickly in the next few days. Heading to Meow Wolf, which is an installation art exhibit. So we’ll be walking a lot. It’s been fun having my son and his buddy in town.
12/12 208.2 (+1.8) Ate late last night and off plan. But I’ve enjoyed every moment of having my son in town. He’s heading home this morning and my routine will be back on track. When we went to Meow Wolf yesterday, I climbed and crawled through lots of spaces that I never would have gone through before. It’s amazing how much of a difference the extra energy and smaller size make. Today begins the final push before Christmas Eve when my family gets together to celebrate. So I have two weeks and hoping to be at a new low later this week.
12/13 206 (-.4) Moving back down after a busy weekend. There is always that seed of doubt…maybe this is the time I won’t be strong enough to get refocused. I’m back on routine today and will be busy with no organized exercise. I think it will be easy because I have my meals planned and tomorrow I’m back in the pool, which always helps with those extra exercise calories.
12/14 205.2 (-1.2) Another busy day today, but it starts with swimming, so I should be good. Still hoping to hit my goal weight for this round. Fingers crossed!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/08 - 180.4, Ave 180.9
Okay, back on track and determined to get out of the 80s for good this round, holidays or no! I’m still working on my office (have a rug in mind for to open space and I’m looking for a small cabinet) but here’s the new color. I love the change in the feel of the room.
12/09 - 180.4, Ave 180.8
Ugh, I ate too much yesterday. I can’t seem to stifle myself. But I’m off in a few minutes for a dog walk with a friend and she’s usually up for a nice long one. Gotta bundle up!
12/10 - 181.2, Ave 181.2
Time lag, because my calories yesterday were fine. Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow….
12/11 - 181.2, Ave 181.2
Steady as she goes. I had planned a nice walk but the temp is dropping fast (20 degrees in two hours!) and wind is 30-40 mph, so I don’t think so. Maybe I should paint another room for exercise? 😁
12/12 - 180.8, Ave 181.1
My birthday is in 10 days and I’m determined to be below 180 by then! Off for a walk with the pup—it’s chilly, but no wind, a relief after the past two days. Enjoy your Sunday, all!
12/12 - 180.8, Ave 181.1
That’s weird—second time in a coupla rounds that I’ve had the same weight & running average two days in a row. What does it mean??? Have I entered the Twilight Zone? 😁 Anyway….off to get my hair cut and then run some errands, including getting a blender. We haven’t had one in ages, since the ancient one gave up the ghost, but I’ve been hankering for low-cal healthy smoothies to satisfy my sweet tooth and also take collagen daily instead of every two weeks when I remember it. My skin & hair are SO much better with collagen. Have a happy Monday, all!
12/14 - 180.6, Ave 180.9
I’m still eating too much, but a bit less. I don’t know why I’m so ravenous these days. But little by little….

Day/Weight/Comment
12/07 …..190.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
12/08 …..190.4 ….. (Trend weight 189.6) I’m a hot mess. Now I’ve ran my glucose up and I am feeling like sheer crap on top of it all. I’m making changes today to get to a better place. More paperwork and business for my brother is due today. I don’t even feel like I can raise a pencil to paper! It’s the food choices.
12/09 …..190.4 ….. Trend weight 189.7) Same weight for 3 days in a row but my trend weight is creeping up 0.1 each and every day. I still haven’t made the changes I need to. I am not eating my meals proper, then I’m snacking too much at night turning snacks into meals. Cravings are all over the place. Back and forth from salt to sweet. Glucose numbers still up, even with new meds. I am not even giving them a chance to work. Self-sabotage is putting it mildly. I promise myself everyday that it will change today, and then I begin the tasks for my brother’s death and I either lean on food for comfort, or I get to busy to plan for success. I suppose the first part of success and change is recognition, so here I am standing at the confessional podium. Better planning is next and success (while currently elusive) is mine to take.
12/10 …..189.8 ….. (Trend weight 189.7) I ate better yesterday and kept my snacks to sugar-free items. I still haven’t started Christmas shopping and you all know how far I am from ANY stores. I hope to do a little shopping online today, we are expecting another bad winter storm. We’ve had over 12” of snow in the past couple of days. I am still working on decorating with my handyman’s help. It’s hard to get in the spirit. I’m hanging on by the skin of my teeth here, please continue to be patient with me, my friends.
12/11 …..190.6 ….. (Trend weight 189.8) Waited too long for dinner due to unexpected company over. Then I overate. Dinner at 11:30 pm. Early wake-up and weigh-in after 3.5 hours of sleep. I can’t wait for life to get back to normal, but sadly it will be without Jeff. I still haven’t starting shopping yet. Today I hope to spend some time online doing the online shopping thing. I hope it will better get me in the spirit. Gotta watch my meals today and make sure I don’t get too hungry! I’m actually quite perfect at all this……..that is, until I get hungry. I know ya’ll get that!
12/12 …..192.0 ….. Trend weight 190.0) Out to dinner with a friend who helped move some of my brother’s furniture. Pasta and a shared dessert in the same meal is never a good idea. Freaking out today. Making it a low cal / carb mindful day. Lots of water.
12/13 …..192.2….. (Trend weight 190.2) Small fluctuation with no TMI. Travel today for building supplies and product returns won’t help. I’ll not be home until later tonight after dark.
12/14 …..191.6 ….. (Trend weight 190.4) Travel weight has not shown up yet on the scale. I got my Covid booster Sunday and the fatigue and flu-like symptoms hit me hard while I was out of town. Wow. Just so tired and lethargic. While it is totally worth it, I hate that it happened while I was away from home. The Moderna was half the dose of my last shot so I didn’t expect this. I got to bed early and just rested until this morning. I feel back to 100% now. Today is hair appointment this afternoon. Then back to some more decorating/tidying up and maybe even some wrapping later!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/8/ 168 2 / went for a long drive, stopped for a chibbata, settling down now for a few hours then exersise bike for 15 min later. Glad I made it to a stone loss feel good about myself, I'm not there yet, but I'm still trying. We'll see how this goes, lets do this! 😊
12/9/ 168.8/ went horse riding today for an hour, ate very little till now, having soup and wheaten for light dinner, lots of herbal tea, got three and half pounds to lose this round so going to have to exersise more. Craving crisps these days, going to do a shop tomorrow, so need ideas for recipes, will look up app for more healthy foods.
12/10/168.3/ went for coffee with a friend today, had a big fifteen traybake, she insisted lol I gave in, will try harder tomorrow, need to start losing pounds, Christmas festive food gets me the worst, mini platters of tasty treats, this time of year it is difficult. Will do my best, that's all I can do! Good luck everyone! 👍 😊 7 days to go till end of round, keep logging in! Xx
12/11/ 167.8/ Had a blow out last night, but the scales didn't punish me yet, hardly ate today, as was doing alot of housework, drunk plenty of coffee, pedometers not working anymore, I moved enough that's all I know. Did a shop, so kippers and steamed vegetables for dinner, no beer this weekend, had to stop that bad habit. Hopefully get to 167.5 by tomorrow.
12/12/ 169.0/ didn't sleep much last night, kept waking up and had drinks of water and a night time snack so reading on scale will be higher 😔.Only had chicken gougons for dinner there, and plan not to snack tonight, that's the plan 😆 Will definitely get a good sleep, long drive today. Got to stick to daily target on cals, very important. Going to a dinner party on the 18th so want to make best of this round, just about fit into dress 😅
12/13/ 168.6/ really not getting control of this, when I started diet on fitnesspal a month ago, i really kept my cals down and it was easy, struggling a little now, balancing making dinner for DH is hard when I see hearty meals cooked and all, not to indulge. I think apart from that I've plateaued, need to add more exercise, at least I'm still logging my diary everyday, didn't have much today yet, was out at art class since early morning, so filled up on coffee. Small goal is to not eat after 8pm from now on, and get full nights sleep without waking to get drinks. That's probably messing with scales in morning.
12/14/ 169.0/ dedicated today to make a difference, I need to put effort in, no snacking tonight, got vegetables which will fill me up, and will have soup with no bread for supper. Need to spur myself on yo lose another stone, at least, I know I can do it bring on the scales by day ten 💪

@AR10at50 Thank you! Being in the 130's does seem a little surreal, and yet, doable. Why, why didn't I do this years ago!6

Hello! This is Round 3 for me. 60F, 5' 3.5". I'm pretty good with following my calories/day allotment and exercising most days (5-6/wk). I lift weights, cardio, stretching, and PT exercises as part of my exercise routine. Good luck everyone!
Round goal: 139.0
End-of-year goal: 140 lbs
End of Feb goal (vacation): 135 lbs, UGW
SW: 140.9
Day/Weight/Comment
12/8 140.9 Another hike in my favorite park yesterday. Last time, a few days back, it was in the 60's. Yesterday, it was in the 40's (and sunny in Colorful Colorado!). I wore leggings and jeans, 2 pairs of socks, 2 shirts, 2 sweatshirts, and a knit hat, lol! I have never hiked in that much clothing before! It worked out well. I thought I would have to wrap one sweatshirt around my waist partway through, but didn't because it was a bit windy. I realized that I did not state a Round goal yesterday, so I added that to my other goals above. Today, I am going to a lunch at a restaurant with a number of ladies and have scoped out the menu online and figured out my calories for the day to keep within my allotment. We'll see how that works. Have a wonderful day, everyone.
12/9. 141.1 OK, for the last six days or so, I've been fairly level with my weight, ever so slightly ticking up. I have been tolerating it, but today, I'm starting to become less tolerant. Yesterday, I went out to lunch and ate more for that meal (~725 calories as opposed to the more typical ~400 calories), and went over ~225 calories for the day. I almost always stay within my allotted amount, so I thought this would be totally ok. And it is, but I am still displeased, lol! It's all good. I'll continue following my calories and my exercise routine...
12/10 140.8 Much better
12/11. 139.8 First time in the 130's for decades, since before my children (in the nineties). My first child "gave" me seven extra pounds and my second, two. I, unfortunately, "gave" myself more! Too many years of prioritizing everything before my needed weight loss. Yo-yo'ing up and down the overweight range of BMI was not the best. No doubt, I'll bounce around 140 for a awhile. This is my year-end goal, which means I need to get lower than that to compensate for the two holiday parties on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
12/12 139.7
12/13 139.2. It's amazing how we can compartmentalize, isn't it? I have been thinking that I only have two Christmas parties to go to this year (actually, just small family get-togethers, hardly parties). A couple days back, I added my second REAL party date to my calendar and it took until yesterday to I realize that I am now up to four events which will adversely impact my weight loss. My plan for the two family get-togethers is to follow my usual eating pattern during the day, excluding those two meals. Then I will eat a bit of everything and not bother to log calories, other than throwing in some wildly estimated "quick add" calories. For the two actual parties, I plan to eat three items and have a glass of punch/wine and do the same with the quick add calories. Like many others, I find when I develop a plan, it is far, far easier! Even with holiday parties, I still believe I will be able to meet my UGW by the end of Feb (vacation). My 140 lb interim goal at end-of-year may not be met and that will be okay.

GW-150
12/8-166-I just want to get to 164 this round. DH went fishing, so we had trout for dinner. Soup supper at church tonight, hopefully I can play my cards right and avoid any bread. I want to get a bike ride and horse ride in today.
12/9-DNW-The soup was salty and I ate 2 small pieces of bread. My friend’s quilt top arrived yesterday early and I wanted to get it quilted so I can mail it back today. I normally do not quilt for other people, but I wanted to help her out. Luckily, it was fast and easy. Rain today.
12/10-168-Homemade chicken vegetable soup, must have been the salt. Sunny today, lots to do.
12/11-164-Made it to my goal for the round. Had a small pork chop, sautéed spinach, riced cauliflower and salad, just small portions. My son told me his friend graduates tomorrow; I thought it was supposed to be in the spring and I wanted to make him a quilt. I already have the fabric and a quick pattern....
12/12-DNW
12/13-165-Had MIL over for dinner and made my French bread into rolls, baked salmon and more riced cauliflower, had come candied walnuts, avocado, green onions, dried cranberries and a wine vinegariette I made salad out of. Got all but the binding done and will mail the quilt today. Windy!
12/14-167-Made broccoli cheddar soup and also cooked a sweet potato- heavy food. Garden Club luncheon today and dinner out with a friend.....7 -
I'm in again. Round 170 was basically a wash for me - I lost 0.2 pounds. 🙄
I'm a 5'7" 54yo woman in SE Michigan.
I would like to consistently be at or below 158 by Christmas.
SW (this fall): 161 lbs
UGW: 145 lbs. (I'd be happy with 150 right now.)
Day/Weight/Comment (Comments will be regarding the previous day)
12/8 - 159.4 Ate OK yesterday - maybe a little too much beef rendang for dinner. Snacking happened but was not out of control. No exercise - work from 9 - 5, and then it was dark. And I was tired.
12/9 - 158.8 Yesterday was one of those days going from one thing straight to another with work, volunteer responsibilities, grocery shopping. . . I don't snack much on these days but did snack a little more in the evening. Was over WW points but still a blue dot - surprisingly. No exercise other than my daily back exercises.
12/10 - 159.2 Yesterday: ate OK. Didn't track dinner but I think it wasn't too high (chicken yassa) though the squash had a buttery/ maple syrup-y glaze. I walked with a friend for about 1.5 hours in the afternoon; my fitbit tracked ~12K steps by the end of the day. Work holiday party tonight -- Thai restaurant food. That will be a challenge. Will try to jog today - I think I'll have time.
12/11 - 159.0 Yesterday was a heavy work day = a lot of sitting. I ate about half my Thai order at the work party and threw the rest away. I was full and I can't bring it home anyway b/c my daughter has celiac. No significant exercise.. .
12/12 - 158.2 Yesterday, I kept snacking under control, tracked everything, and jogged 3 miles without getting blown away (too badly) by the wind!
12/13 - 158.2 Yesterday, I tracked all my food again! Went over my WW points. Had lunch out with my husband.
12/14 - 158 I'm excited by the possibility of maybe getting below 158 soon! I just need to stay consistent. Lack of consistency is one of my weaknesses. Yesterday was a slightly crazy day at work--> a lot of sitting. I ate mindfully and limited snacking, though I didn't track. I hope to go for a jog this afternoon since it's mild and sunny again!

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable but I’ve been doing it for over 4 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

12/8 117.5 Chocolate Tres Leches Cake - MEH. Friend brought it from Texas because she thinks it wonderful.
12/9 118.0 Edited yesterday’s post. Appointments with the retina specialist today. The pinched nerve and arthritis in my neck has been bothering me for several days. Not an excuse, just a diary entry because I save all of my posts.
12/10 117.0 Community Arts and Crafts luncheon today. Brown bag lunch and shared desserts. I’m making my always popular high carb brownies. They smell sooo good!
12/11 119.0 Holiday party #1 under my belt and the 2nd and last coming this afternoon. It l’s all good. Breakfast Bingo this morning with “continental breakfast.” We all know that means loads of carbs. They should have some berries that I’ll eat and I’m taking my own low carb yogurt.
12/12 121.5 Pre-Christmas gathering #2 of 2. Glad those are over. Back with the program. It’s all good.

12/08 / 190 / Rough night volunteering last night. Today will be busy at work, we'll see what exercise I get up to at lunch and afterwards. Excited to see the first 18x number this round!
12/09 / 188.2 / Hello whoosh! I haven't seen the 180's for over 15 years... I am over the moon excited for this final stage of my weight loss journey!
12/10 / 189.6 / Did my first 60 minute Peloton ride this morning. I didn't want to get out of bed but I was so glad I did!
12/11 / 189.2 / Had my work's virtual Christmas party last night. Husband and I got to order in and watch the private concert. I know I want to do some strength training today and we'll see what else we get up to. Feeling a bit sore so might take it easier than normal.
12/12 / 189.6 / More sedentary day yesterday as we saw two movies in the theatre (there was a good promotion on). Still did 53 minutes of exercise though so I'm happy about that.
12/13 / 191.8 / Definitely feel bloated today which is unusual for me. I set a 60 minute PR on the Peloton yesterday and then spent the day in the kitchen on my feet with my husband and mom making homemade perogies and meat kebabs.
12/14 / 191.6 / Week is off to a fine start - definitely feeling the time crunch before the holidays. Off to fit in my Peloton ride over my lunch hour since it's really cold outside here and the dog has no desire to go outside.

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.

Overall Weight Loss

I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), add one day of double strength training per week (didn’t hit this last round cause of a cold).
Previous Rounds169 150->151.2 (+1.2) Thanksgiving
170 151.2->148.3 (-2.9)
Previous Posts12/8 workday 2/2. Leftover soba noodles with cabbage, bell pepper, carrot and tofu for lunch. Roasted Brussel sprouts with a Buffalo sauce, avocado, and seitan for dinner. Protein: 124
12/9 I meal planned today since I work all weekend (boooo!) and ran around all morning doing some Christmas shopping and getting groceries. I did a clean and jerk, v-up, burpee workout and big pull day for strength (PRs on my DB rows and rack pulls!). Our gym is in the garage and I’m maxing out on the DB’s (only go up to 60) but we are also maxing out on space for gym equipment since we do use it as an actual car garage. I might look into getting PowerBlocks to get us up to 90lbs without using up much more floor space. Had a farro bowl with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, seitan and a gochujang sauce. Walked around the neighborhood after dinner looking at Christmas lights. Protein: 126
12/10 I did two cardio workouts. One jump rope and DB step ups and the other rowing, shoulder press, and bent over barbell rows. I did a core workout from my strength programming. Normally there are 4 days of mostly compound lifts and 2 days of accessory and core work and I’ve been trying to fit in the accessory days on one of my 4 non-work days. Mission accomplished today! I also went on a walk (I like to listen to house music and walk to the beat. Keeps the pace brisk lol) before it got super windy. I ran a few errands this afternoon with my mom and went to the florist to have them make a festive garland with lights to go around my front door. Hit some PRs (again!!) on leg day for the primary lifting session. I ended up eating waaay more today than I have for the past few weeks since I was so active. Dinner was a roasted cauliflower, black lentil, green olive, pistachio salad with a lemon vinaigrette and baked tofu. Back to work tomorrow. Protein: 162
12/11 Probably the most annoying day of work in recent memory. Not looking forward to going back in the morning. Really yummy roasted eggplant and tomato soup and seitan for dinner though. Protein: 115
12/12 workday 2/2. 4 days of freedom now! Leftovers for lunch. Spicy lentils with roasted butternut squash and tofu for dinner. Protein: 116
12/13 I love my days off! The hospital is just (physically and mentally) exhausting sometimes. I meal planned and grocery shopped for the next week (I really messed up my schedule for December and am working almost every weekend. Yuck). I am doing a good job with getting my 2 accessory days of strength training programming in now that I’m recovering from that nasty cold. I did a rowing, man maker (first time doing them, it was like a push-up, renegade row, squat clean, thruster all in one), devil’s press workout and hit the accessory trunk work day this morning. I got a Christmas book on audible that I listened to on a walk. Leftovers for lunch. For the primary strength training today I did a push day. The new programming cycle is heavy on volume and I’m feeling it. Ever since I’ve started cleaning up my diet and hitting my protein goals I’ve been hitting PRs almost everyday and tonight I was doing deficit pushups like they were nothing. Feels good! Stir fried tempeh, cabbage, and carrots with a really yummy sweet and sour type sauce for dinner. Protein: 152g

12/14 147 (-1.5) I got in my second accessory day this morning, so I’m on track to hit all 6 training sessions in my 4 days off this week. I did a farmers carry step up and box jump workout to get the heart rate up and then the accessory programming was a bunch of trunk work and kettlebell swings. The florist finished making my Christmas garland and I got that hung and then started wrapping Christmas presents. Pull day for the primary lifting programming (I’m still on my streak of PRs!). I tried a recipe from the MFP blog.. Cabbage and onion noodle kugel. It was pretty tasty and high in protein. Protein: 142g

Let’s rock and roll! Back in September, I had set a goal to see 199 by New Year’s Day. These short 10 day challenges have really kept me motivated, and got me to that goal more than a month early. So maybe, just maybe…. I can see 190 by New Year’s Day?! I’m surely going to try!

EW: 221.6
162 EW: 218.6
163 EW: 211.8
164 EW: 211.6
165 EW: 206.0
166 EW: 206.2
167 EW: 203.2
168 EW: 198.2
169 EW: 201.2
170 EW: 193.4
Goals this round: 10,000 steps daily, <100 net carbs daily, Pelo ride 2-3x week, strength training 2-3x week
SW: 193.4
12/8: 193.4 63 net carbs yesterday and Pelo ride done. Fell short on steps, but it is what it is. Seems the monthly stall has arrived, so this round will likely not bring much loss. I’m okay with that.
12/9: 194.6 94 net carbs, and a little short on steps. Monthly stall is in full effect.
12/10 194.6 Holding steady, which is good during this stall cycle! 60 net carbs, but I’ve been failing fairly miserably at my step goal. I’m granting myself some grace here though. The holiday season has had me pretty dang busy.
12/11 194.6 yet again. 62 net carbs, but more sodium than usual. I’m surprised I didn’t gain considering how much time I spent on my feet yesterday. Still fell short of my step goal again. It is what it is. I know myself well enough to know at some point, I will get back to hitting my step goal.
12/12 195.4 Managed 73 net carbs yesterday. Spent awhile in the kitchen on my feet baking Christmas cookies. By the end of the day, I could tell I was low on protein for the day. I wound up having a meat and cheese snack because I was absolutely starving! I gotta pay better attention to the protein! This week I’ve felt so off kilter. I’m glad for a new week, and feeling like Sunday is a fresh new start.
12/13 195.6 65 net carbs and a Pelo ride done.
12/14 195.2 Finally hit my step goal again for once! 31 net carbs and a pretty good day all around. Back on the downward trend I think!
