Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 171
Replies
-
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).

**************************************
12/08 140.0 (trend 141.6) hit last round's goal a day late, it's nice to start on a round number. I'm surprised to get a drop today as I was waaaay over calories yesterday so this may just be dehydration, we'll see tomorrow. The family had a Chinese takeaway last night, I had a taste and a few prawn crackers but didn't order a meal, instead I had a ham sandwich and a chocolate bar, probably not the best substitute on reflection! I'll have to try and make amends today.
12/09 139.8 (trend 141.4) Excited to get a glimpse at the 130s! Didn't eat much again yesterday but woke up starving so I think it's safe to say my appetite is back, got to watch out that I don't binge today. I'm craving soup and have a couple of pumpkins left that I grew so may have to make some nom nom. Still haven't got a kitchen though so it'll be a bit tricky, maybe I'll use the slow cooker.

12/08 - 147.5
12/09 - 146.7 - Scale was making rash decisions this morning. Before I could even get both feet settled on it, it had settled on 146.2. I was not confident so I let it cycle through off and on, tried again. Another rash decision. With only one foot on the scale (the other hovering as I was in the process of stepping from floor to scale) 148.6. Okaaaaay, not even ON the scale. Finally, it acted normal and gave me 2 back to back readings (that took the normal couple of seconds to register) of 146.7. Well then. Today is rest day for NF. QFit wants me to do 9 staircases but I don't have any staircases around that are accessible to me/open to the public (or part of a state park in which you have to schedule a reservation and pay for). All habits good yesterday, water was good. Food was much much better with veggies in all 3 meals. I know dinner is homemade hamburgers at Fam's again tonight and I also know they usually leave me feeling horribly full and the scale jumping up the next day. Will be sure to plan around that with breakfast and lunch as well as eat slower tonight and be mindful of portion size.

Previous Day's Comments12/08 - Whew, the first weigh in of the round is now over and no random uptick! Food was okay, portions were good, water was excellent. All NF habits completed. Got plenty of stretching in through the day, but checked off goal with a 6 minute morning yoga routine. My body was a bit stiff so throughout the day, I got on the floor and moved in whatever way felt comfortable. Today is 7 reverse lunges each as well as my BW workout from NF so I'll knock those out here shortly. Lots of back to back meetings again so no grocery trip today (and if the meetings hold, tomorrow either) so I have to get creative with a balanced lunch these next couple of days. Friday I'm off so can stock up for the weekend and next week.

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.

12/8 207.8 Walked 1.1 miles, shopping, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Dinner out Italian again but I ordered grilled crab cakes. Went to a play (TUTS Little Mermaid) with my sister, DD and DIL which was a nice change of pace but it was a late night.
12/9 207.5 Walked 2.8 + 1 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Healthier eating and this time I included veggies! But I’m craving and snacking on Simply Jif by the spoonful.

8: 212.6 I've got a new goal to reach 195 by 2/22/22...the day before my birthday. Broken down into 5 pound increments, the first being the longest because of the holidays, I'd like to see 210 by December 30th. With TOM this round and Christmas next round, it might be challenging, but I intend to hold myself to it.
9: 212.2 Good day yesterday. Honestly surprised to not be seeing little gains yet, but I'll take the loss! Makes me curious what's different now though. 🤷🏽

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!

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.

Previous days12/9 Did not weigh this morning. Did a 60 minute spin bike ride this morning. My husband came home super early this morning because there was a fire at my in-law’s condo complex. He was okay but he could smell and see smoke in the building’s hallway and the firefighters were starting to show up, so he didn’t stick around to see what was going to happen and just grabbed his stuff and headed home at 3:30 in the morning. That was a scary text to see when I woke up but was so grateful that he was okay and that he heard the faint fire alarm going off.
12/8 119.6 Cool with that weight today. Went for a run this morning and it felt good but it was chilly, so I sweat less than the past two days of using the spin bike inside. I plan to spin tomorrow morning, so I don’t push it with my knee. Food was good all day, although when I was done with my day/finished dinner I was still hungry. I ended up going over on calories but spent them on a microwave baked apple (core an apple, pop in the microwave for 4-5 minutes with a splash of water, finish with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice) and that helped curb the hunger a bit.
I have my food all planned for the day and it should be a solid day.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/08: 205.7 - Alright back down after my body played an end of the round trick on me. Felt really tired this morning so it was a drag to get on the bike but just did it anyway and set another 20 minute PR. Either my cardio is improving that much or I'm getting stronger to set 3 new PRs in a week.
12/09: 204.4 - I'm guessing a lot of water in this but I also had a good day of eating yesterday and I'm just burning so many calories lately that weight is flying off (even though I'm eating plenty, including some junk). Took a 45 minute ride with my favorite instructor this morning and set a 45 minute PR tomorrow is definitely going to be active rest day because my poor legs need it!

12/8: 205.6 To be expected! Took my Adderall break yesterday and had my morning protein shake, tried to have a bowl of cereal but it was the generic kind and yucky, two veggie samosas for lunch, and butter chicken with rice and half a piece of naan for dinner with a little ice cream afterwards. So lots of sodium! Also lots of calories I’m sure but it was sure yummy. Have leftover butter chicken and naan tonight but going to eat a smaller portion. Overslept this morning so took a smaller dose of Adderall. BP has been cooperating so far.
12/9: 204.8 Some of that sodium water exiting my system.9 -

Round 171
Please join us! Starting on 12/08 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 171
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.
Goals
- check in at least every other day
- Low carb
- participate

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.

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!

I know where you are coming from regarding the paperwork etc. for your late brother, I had to deal with it for a maiden aunt & then 6 months later my Dad, it is so daunting and not what you feel like attacking after a sad loss. Try to take it easy on yourself and also take care of yourself, so hard to do when you are wrapped up in so much "stuff" , is there anyone else in the family that can help? Or even just bounce ideas off? Sending you hugs xx6 -

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.

Nice! Is this where the writing magic happens? I hope you can see your beautiful backyard from that window.
@_JeffreyD_ It is since Covid struck! I used to do most of my writing in cafes, but not for the past — eeek! Almost two years! The window actually faces the front yard, and in summer I can see roses, hydrangeas, and various perennials. We’re going to plant a couple of conifers in the spring—I’d rather see trees than the neighbors’ boring yards, and would also rather have trees than lawn.😄6 -

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.

Just want to drop you a note. Your daily comments hit home on the ups and downs of life and I really enjoy them. You have a great sense of self and sense of humor!
Thanks for sharing.
Yes, I agree, I always have a laugh at the wry comments - keep 'em coming @_JeffreyD_ !6 -
@SheilaBoneham - I'm loving your office! I would never dream of picking that sort of shade of green to paint, but it really works, you've done a brilliant job 4

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.

@SheilaBoneham I love, love, love the color. Looks great as is, but if you decide on an area rug, I look forward to another pic. This is sophisticated and befitting a writer!1 -

Round 171 (103rd for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.
There is only 17 days to Christmas !! So I'd like to lose 3 pounds for then ( I think 2 pounds are more realistic, but I'll give it a go!), that is only 2.5 weeks, a pound a week or 2 pounds per round. I know it will be tight, with more pre-Christmas activities, but I'm going to persevere and keeping going. Incentive is that I feel good about the dresses I want to wear for our Christmas & New Year dance nights. I need to remain binge free, but as always – yet again any loss will be a win!
Covid numbers keep yo-yoing in England – we reached “freedom day” back in the summer, but there is still a pandemic, and now a new variant: Covid is still very much around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, stay alert and always consider others.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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Nice! Is this where the writing magic happens? I hope you can see your beautiful backyard from that window.
@_JeffreyD_ It is since Covid struck! I used to do most of my writing in cafes, but not for the past — eeek! Almost two years! The window actually faces the front yard, and in summer I can see roses, hydrangeas, and various perennials. We’re going to plant a couple of conifers in the spring—I’d rather see trees than the neighbors’ boring yards, and would also rather have trees than lawn.😄
@SheilaBoneham I love the way you go after all that you love! After losing my brother recently, it is never more apparent that we should live our life to the fullest, be as happy as we can and enjoy turn our work into talents such as your writing and painting. I'm love hearing your wonderful attitude each day and seeing your creativity come to life in so many ways. THAT, is the true meaning of inspiration!4 -

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.
