@AR10at50 Hope you enjoyed the Gumbo.
@enlightenme3 I was just reading yesterday how when you drink a *kitten* ton of water it helps aid in weight loss. I need to up mine also. I also read a post where eating 3 meals a day helps more then 6-8. My last 5# are tough as hell also. I googled Jillian Michaels Last 10# and found a nice set of youtube videos on the subject. Great inspiration.
@quiltingjaine – what did you order at the taco place for keto? Just was wondering.
@whitej1234 - Hi! So your 178cm tall? That’s 5foot 10 inches in US? I have to be wrong. And your goal is to weigh 91 pounds? Just inquiring, not judging one bit. But it seems I have something wrong, as 91 pounds would be suitable for a person 5 feet tall, not 5 feet 10 inches.
Thanks in advance.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/7 - 200.2 - My scale just knows when it's the end of the 10 day round and decides to go up that day apparently. It helps that I did 3 Peloton rides and a 1.25 mile walk between weigh ins and ate light yesterday. This is the round where I duck below 200 and stay there! I'm so so so close. Please let it happen!
1/8 - 200.6
1/9 - 201.7
1/10 - 203.3 - Not surprised by this. Mondays are always high because of low-impact rides. I also drank a lot of water this morning because I was extremely thirsty when I woke up. I do have to get back in control of eating, however. My losses have gone down to nearly 0 when my workouts have been consistent and burning 500+ calories.
1/11 - Did not weigh
1/12 - 206.1 - Yeah. I didn't even weigh yesterday because I didn't work out and felt bloated. First time since summer I didn't weigh in. Then today I worked out and weighed in at this. I don't know what it is but since I've been close to 200, I've just mentally not been as motivated as I was the entire 100 lbs before that. It's really frustrating. I have to re-focus and remember how far I've come and there's just a little more loss to go and then maintain for life. Come on!
1/13 - 203.7 - At least better than yesterday. Just have to get back to good habits. Weigh in, post weight in MFP app, post here and I'll stay accountable. coblujay out here absolutely killing it getting below 200 is the push I need! I'm so inspired by all of you here showing up every day and going through the ups and downs of life but still striving for a goal!
1/14 - 202.8 - Alright headed into the weekend at 202.8 and have a big weekend of workouts planned. I know the scale is going to be low this weekend but next week is the week to be below 200 permanently. I've started doing some strength workouts in addition to Peloton rides and I'm absolutely loving it. As a former football player, weight lifting feels like home and I'm excited to add that to my better than ever cardio.

1/10: 107.4 ave 107.4 - Chest and back ; weight is post workout. I can't even fathom what it is pre-workout. I hope to get to a pre-workout weigh in some day soon.
1/12 - 107.8, ave 107.6 - Cardio & WEighted Glutes. Covid booster
1/13 - 108.0 ave 107.7 - Below calories but today's workout was not a good sweat session. back/chest and leg soreness, so some of this can be attributed to muscle soreness ??? IDK....
I like someones post who said "make Monday and Tuesday very low calories" I think I may implement that today and Friday. See what happens on Saturday.
1/14 - 107.8 ave 107.7 - I guess its in the right direction but, that took a lot of sweat and tears. Yesterday I had a cookie with extra sugar and some butter. Very yummy but, I have to remember I can't have that no matter what. Its not in the AIP protocol. So I felt sad last night because I made a bad choice earlier in the day. Kickboxing this moring seemed to help a little. The scale not going wonky helped too - I know I was over my calorie budget by probably 500. So it could have been worse.9 -

1/14 - 146.5 - Feel and look slimmer today, but the scale wants to play games. That's alright. Dinner was a last-minute invite over to Fam's and we had scallop and shrimp alfredo pasta. I skipped the garlic bread (gasp! that's usually my favorite part). Likely why I'm up, though. But I'll take the slimmer look and lighter feel I have waking up this morning. Water was good as well. Not sure tonight, at all, but I imagine we will be at Fam's again for dinner. They're worried this new house is about 30 minutes from where they are now and almost an hour from their land (where they plan to start building their house this year) so we won't hang out as much. Today before I break my fast I have to go get blood drawn in the next town over. I'm not looking forward to that. I need to sneak in my NF workout today somewhere. I'll try to do ground work here as soon as I post and catch up on reading everyone's updates.

Previous Day's Comments1/07 - Body is still holding on to some bloat, but I'm still dropping which I'm happy about. Today is rest day. I also have 2 doc appointments (1 in person women's health, 1 virtual) and apparently we are looking at a house this afternoon. Dinner was corned beef and cabbage chowder which I have plenty of leftovers for today. Between appointments and all, I may stop by the store to grab something for dinner tonight I can make.
1/08 - Not quite enough water, ate out (looking at house took longer than expected and we stopped to check out a local place in the area we didn't know about. It's super adorable, 100% want to visit again), and TMI not quite there. Today is air fryer wings for lunch (I may have a couple plain wings but eat more of that corned beef cabbage chowder). Dinner will be either stuffed pepper soup or homemade chicken and dumplings, depending on how BF work goes (he makes the chicken&dumplings). Workout due today but he has full schedule so I have time to procrastinate. Woke up suuuuuper early for no reason and feeling it so giving myself grace when it comes to energy levels. It's a rainy dreary morning here and quite chilly. Definitely taking this as my lazy day to relax and maybe read more of my book. Unfortunately it's an e-book, but I've had to sacrifice my paper books for sake of space. This house we looked at has built in shelving for books and I LOVE it. My current mini-library is full of mixed media. Some books in a series are paper while others I've had to contend with electronic versions. Drives me batty! (And yes, for those books I love, I'm THAT girl who will buy the paper copy of it even though I already bought the e-book of it. I always wanted a library!) Plus, paper copies are just so much more intimate for me. Mom (who is an author and the reason I'm a book nerd) thinks I'm crazy and has no idea where I get so many particularities with books from. It's not her, so long as it's a book, she's happy, regardless of the medium. Dad's not a book person. I'm also the girl who will very carefully read a paperback as to not crease the spine. And holy moly, do not dog ear or bend pages or write in them, I will LOSE IT. Unless I get secondhand books, of course. Then it's character teehee. Wish I had a secondhand book store here.
1/09 - Interesting. I feel less bloated and lighter today. I was excited to see what the scale said and, surprise surprise! An increase. I'm not worried about it, I'm just happy FEELING lighter, but I was shocked. Dinner this weekend was switched. Work allows Fam and BF some opportunity to get together so we had dinner there last night (smothered pork chops with rice and collard greens) and today we will head over for wings. I've got to get a list together to shop for at least 2 dinners this week and lunch for me. We will have chicken & dumplings and stuffed pepper soup during the week, but need 2 more dinners. Think I'll make myself taco salad for the week and if it's not enough, I'll take dinner leftovers (I mainly need something for tomorrow since I won't have leftovers from Fam)
1/10 - Water back up to normal. Food wasn't the greatest, but not the worst (wings and fries with leftovers for today. Added in some veggies for lunch as well). Tired this morning, for the first time in my life (that I wasn't horribly sick) that I remember, I slept through my alarms. I was so exhausted apparently. My final alarm was the absolutely latest I could wake up and be on time. I spent less time getting ready and gave myself a few minutes to do ground work (pushups, planks) for today's Nerd Fitness workout. I have lunges and rows to knock out at work. Thinking of waiting until the after lunch slump to do those to get my body moving and blood flowing. Hopefully it will keep me from dozing or zoning out. Dinner tonight is chicken & dumplings, BF is attempting to make my dumplings since I'm not home to do it. Leftover will be tomorrow's lunch.
1/11 - Leftover wings (plain) and added steamable veggies for lunch. Plus a banana as "dessert". Dinner was homemade chicken & dumplings. BF successfully made the dumplings! Go him! Water on track, too. Workout was completed during that after lunch slump and worked well. I'm back working from home today due to high covid positive numbers within the company (it's worse than the first round when noone quite knew what to do) and my work this week is all meetings so why go in? Today is leftover chicken & dumplings for lunch and I'll make my stuffed pepper soup for dinner.
1/12 - Likely a dip because I only got in about 60oz water yesterday. I was absent-minded about it due to focusing on work, cooking dinner, and getting house paperwork completed. Whew. Even forgot to eat lunch! I did have a later breakfast, though, so it really counted as an early lunch for me I suppose. Leftover chicken&dumplings or stuffed pepper soup for lunch and I'm not sure of dinner yet. BF said he'd make something up from what we have in the house. Workout due today for NFJourney. All other habits good. Busy busy day, lots of work meetings. Will take a trip to the next town over to pay escrow and option fee today between meetings/over lunch.
1/13 - I'm alright with this, I got my water back up to normal and expected a bump up with that. Last of the chicken & dumplings leftovers for lunch, steak, air-fried "baked" potato, green beans, and steak for dinner. Completed my workout yesterday and packed some of my "extra" stuff I don't need between now and summer (shorts, tanks, swimsuit, my ever-packed beach bag, etc) and my paper books (since I'm currently reading a series on e-book). Not sure dinner tonight, but lunch I'll likely have the leftover stuffed pepper soup. Possibly start packing little stuff from kids' rooms. Our dilemma is whether anything can be tossed now or if we pack it all and make them unpack/purge themselves at the new house. May pack some of our less-used kitchenware today/tomorrow as well. I'm off tomorrow and Monday (while BF works) so I'll have to leave some things for myself to do on those days

Round 174 GW: 01.16.2022 191.8 lbs
01/07: 193 lbs (-0.8)
Going for 2 pounds this round. It's been below freezing, snowy and dark and it's harder to get out for long walks, but I'm staying in the lower end of my calories range, so doable.
01/08: 193.4 lbs (+0.4)
I'm totally OK with a slight bump up. Yesterday was a semi-rest day. Back at it today!
01/09: 194.4 lbs (+1.0)
Ugh. Bad choices yesterday and severely lacked water. Not happy about posting this but I need to be accountable.
01/10: 194.8 lbs (+0.4)
Out of control. Gotta stop the free fall. Bad weekend, too much junk and not enough exercise.
01/11: 194.6 lbs (-0.2)
Well, right direction at least! Not throwing in the towel just yet.
01/12: 193.2 lbs (-1.4)
Phew! Almost back down to before weekend weight. Gotta be more careful on days out if I want to reach my goal.
01/13: 192.4 lbs (-0.8)
Wow, last weekends eating out must have had WAY more sodium than I thought. Down 2.8 pounds in 3 days HAS to be water retention. Good workouts and plenty of water this week helped a ton.
01/14: 192.2 lbs (-0.2)
Expected to be up today but I'll take it. Hoping it doesn't jump up at the end of the round! Happy Friday everyone!

Oops—went a little nuts last night. The cold weather makes me crave fats & carbs! Back with a plan today. I just spent 20 min out throwing balls for Rory—it’s 7F (-14C) feels like -8 (-22). Bracing!
1/08 - 179.4, 178.6
Last minute dinner at friends’ place last night threw a big wrench in my tidy calorie plan. Fun, though! So hopefully back on track today. We got up late, so with late breakfast I may skip lunch, and dinner is planned. Now if I can get back to not snacking…. Off to brave the cold —Rory is full of beans and needs a good run.
1/09 - 179.2, 178.7
Time lag. Yesterday was barely over calorie goal, and today is planned. I’m making vegetarian mulligatawny soup for dinner—yummy. Enjoy your Sunday, everyone!
1/10 - 178.8, 178.7
Brrr. ❄️💨🌨 Otoh, the soup was really delish—DH went back for thirds! Everything restarts today—doggy school for Rory, a writing class I’m teaching—so I’m hoping that will leave less time to sit around and munch. 😁 I’ll miss dinner tonight for Rory’s class, so I’m making salmon patties and roasted sweet potatoes for lunch. That should hold me. Stay warm, those of you in the frigid zone!
1/11 - 178.4, 178.6
I think I’ll make Mondays & Tuesdays very low-cal days for the next 8 weeks—Rory has classes at dinner time Mon and lunch time Tues, so if I can just skip those meals…. I did fine last night. We’ll see how it goes.
1/12 - 178.4, 178.5
Ok, two very low calorie days in a row, and today is planned, so hoping for a drop tomorrow.
1/13 - 178.8, 178.5
Aww, come on. Otoh, I did have popcorn and ice cream yesterday. But calories were below target! 😁
1/14 - 177.8, 178.3
Finally! Maybe there’s still hope for a drop this round.

@SherryRueter At the “taco place” - do you mean Carlito’s? It’s not really a taco place although I think they have tacos. 🤷♀️ I usually get the burrito bowl. You can pick what goes in it from a fairly decent variety. I pick ground beef, lettuce, tomato, onion, and calabacitas. However, when we went this time I got the stuffed sopapilla (definitely NOT keto) smothered with Hatch green chile sauce. This restaurant gets true Hatch green chilies by the semi load in season and they are SOOO good! They sell them either fresh or roasted in late summer.5

Hi, I’m Karen and am in my 50’s.
OSW-187 Sept. 2018
GW-149
1/7-169-Rode the horse, walked 5 miles and quilted. Long day of work today, so I made a sensible lunch.
1/8-168-Another long day of work and I’ll take a good lunch. Walked with the horse yesterday so we both could get some steps in and he does not walk as fast as I do as we slog through the powdery dirt of the arena. We will try it again today before work.
1/9-169-Walked a mile with the horse, and got ready for work. I work in a quilt shop and I sew samples for the shop. While I was sitting and sewing, my hip got a terrible knot in it. Pretty soon, I was limping around the shop while helping customers. When I got home and told my husband about it, we figured out it was my sciatic nerve. I guess walking in the deep arena dirt/sand is a little too much.......🙄
1/10-DNW-Had been doing stretches and then went to chiropractor yesterday and feel 90% better.
1/11-168-Still not ready to do long power walk, but I have figured out to ride the horse lightly. Need to take MIL to Dr. then work a little.
1/12-167-Back to chiropractor, then quilting and horse somewhere in there, I’ll gradually start walking longer distances again.
1/13-166-Made turkey meatball soup, the carrots are the only carbs. I love the fire roasted/garlic canned tomatoes for soup. Worked with the horse and also went for a light ride. Have a quilt I need to finish.
1/14-166-A coffee truck is scheduled to be at DH’s work this morning, so I’m making a couple dozen cinnamon rolls for him to take. Nice horse ride. Still need to finish quilt.7 -

I worked on packing away Christmas items in some limited areas during the work. That calorie burn clearly made the difference today on the scale.
01/08 …..191.2 ….. Trend weight 191.9) Continued progress which I am grateful for. Again, I did not make any major dietary changes (I’ve been keeping it pretty good under the circumstances), but more movement as I continued to work on Christmas décor and replacing it back with my usual stuff. Floor is 95% done with only some minor work such as moulding replacement etc. to be done. Today my handyman will finish and then begin helping with the Christmas work. Two trees should come down today. I woke up STARVING. I am going to try to stick to some high protein choices and some healthy fat to fill up my belly.
01/09 …..192.2 ….. (Trend weight 191.9) Very nice well-planned meals yesterday. Binge on snacks last night. The uptick is my own fault. I’ll do better today.
01/10 …..194.4 ….. (Trend weight 192.1)A ton of company unexpected last night. Pizza for dinner. Huge leap on the scale. Pushing water today.
01/11 …..192.6 ….. (Trend weight 192.2) Strange. I ate the exact same food as the day before. Same breakfast, same lack of lunch and the same amount of pizza (leftovers) and this time I lost instead of gained. No difference in TMI and no difference in exercise. Hmph. I hope the leftovers don’t catch up to me and wreak havoc again! Dining room getting painted. He’s been working on it a couple of days. It’s looking good and may be completed by today. It’s another temporary project to update things until the full kitchen / diningroom reno.
01/12 …..192.6 ….. (Trend weight 192.2) No change but it was a very reasonable day.
01/13 …..192.8 ….. (Trend weight 192.3) Normal fluctuation on the scale today. A day of travel today for building supplies. Dinner will be out.
01/14 …..194.0 ….. (Trend weight 192.5) The result of the travel, Chinese, and less water and movement than usual. I’ll work on a better day but it will be difficult. Expecting a house full including the handyman that brings his wife and son. Ugh!
01/15 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
01/16 …..xxxxx ….. (Trend weight xxxxx)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

I lost muscle while I was sick and virus also took a toll on my gut microbiome. So, I must do the work to restore both.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/07: 148.6 - Had a few extra bites since I was hungry, but stayed within my calories. Aerobics workout and 3 mile walk.
1/08: 148.4 - I’ve been eating back about half of my exercise calories, but the scale seems to be reflecting maintenance. Perhaps my logging isn’t accurate. These last 15 pounds are tough.
1/09: 148.4 - Same ‘ole, same ‘ole. Good exercise, good eating, good sleep.
1/10: 147.3 - Same workout, same lunch and dinner, so-so sleep.
1/11: 147.7 - Good workout plus an extra walk and ate within calories.
1/12: 147.3 - Normal exercise, but only a small walk. Ate back exercise calories.
1/13: 147.3 - Worked out and then did a nature walk at a State Park. Did not drink enough water though.
1/14: 147.3 - Ate just slightly under calories since I wasn’t hungry. Made sure to drink enough water today and did my normal workout.

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.

Hi to everyone
🤩 Karen here from Oregon
@PrimalJillian Thanks for sharing your pyramid blueprints.
I printing off your food pyramid. Great blueprint to plan my meals.
You're welcome! I'm glad you find them helpful.@schmoyew You are almost there! We both have been bouncing around. I'm up over 200 this morning, which isn't totally unexpected with the ups and downs. But my trend is still downward. And @PrimalJillian is almost there too! I'll be happy dancing for both of you in the next week. I think I'm still in a bit of denial, but that's going to change as I see the 190's on the scale more and more and as I fit into my smaller size clothing.
It does feel pretty amazing to be so close to onederland! I was there for awhile in the last year or two, but only during the warmer months when I'm more active. I'm loving that I'm getting there again in the depths of winter, especially imagining how much of a boost I'll get when it warms up in a few months.5 -

7: 204.4 Holding steady. I'm good with this. Pre-TOM weight gains haven't started, or they at least aren't showing up on the scale.
8: 203.8 Pleasantly surprised. Carbs, calories, water were all great yesterday. Just anticipating those little gains that used to be so normal for this time of the month.
9: 204.5 Calories and macros were good yesterday. Cramps today, so fairly certain this is pre-TOM weight. Will be gone in a couple days.
10: 204.6 Hormones. No worries. It'll be back down soon.
11: 204.5 Had a hard time falling asleep last night. Took kids to school and took a 3-hour nap when I got home. Weighed again after because I was curious...202.7. Makes me think the drop after TOM actually starts might be a significant one.
12: 203.5
13: 201.9 At this point, I have no idea what's going on. Lol
Still no TOM, yet weight is dropping as if it had started. 🤷🏽
14: 202.3 Started taking naproxen yesterday because now that I haven't gotten (and nearly ended) TOM by the weekend, I'd rather not have it over the weekend. So far, so good.

Round 174
Please join us! Starting on 01/07 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 174
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.

@quiltingjaineThanks for the invite for Round 175. I plan to be in it. I was entering my info in the old ones because I wanted to get all my info in the spoiler so I would have it to look back to.8 -
Round # 41 for me!
SW: 380.0 (5100 steps daily step goal, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out or junk food 6 days a week)
Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
1/07 380.0 – 5158 steps.
1/08 382.0 – 5555 steps. Back on track today. Last 2 days have had the munchies and one day was a splurge day and splurged a little too much so I was not surprised by 2 pounds up. But that is ok, moving forward. Overall, I have doing great with sleep, water, steps, etc. I need to work on eating more veggies and less carbs. Not sure I will have a chance to check in tomorrow. Sundays are hectic. I do my ministry and religious meetings via zoom half of the day and errands the rest and before I know it Monday is here and time for work again. Have a great weekend! Please stay safe and take the necessary precautions when going out and in public places.
1/09 381.0 – 5509 steps.
1/10 381.0 – 4366 steps.
1/11 381.0 – 5151 steps. I have been under calories, but my calories have not been clean, and I have been eating back too many step calories also. Work has been a trip so have been overindulging in wrong foods and not enough proteins and veggies. I always eat 2 fruits per day. So going forward, goal is to get in protein and veggies or eat more cleanly the rest of this round. The good thing is I have been maintaining, but too much of a good thing always ends up in a gain eventually!
1/12 377.6 – 5153 steps. Under calories again and did a short walk also yesterday. I am hoping to stay in the new decade for good now! It feels wonderful to be out of the red for the round and in a new decade. It has been a while since I have seen 377 and I am loving it for sure. Now I just want to stick the 370's this round. Whoohoo! Happy dance!
1/13 374.4 – 5168 steps. Great day yesterday and doing good on challenge with friends on no eating out this month. I am surprised at how easy this has been also. Mid-month and I have not had any restaurant food since New Year’s Day which for me is awesome. I am cleaning out my freezer At 1st I thought I can’t do this but now that I am doing it, I am like good and my stomach loves it too. Good reminder that I was not being good to my stomach. 
1/14 373.4 – 3811 steps. No walk yesterday, going for a walk today.

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us. 11 -

Goal for this round: Maintain weight while continuing to focus on strength training and running
Previous days1/14 121.8 Ran 6.6 miles this morning and did my strength workout during lunch. TOM hit this afternoon with cramps so I decided to practice selfcare and take the last two hours off from work. So now I’m sitting on the couch watching the last episode of The Good Doctor. Food has been good so far today and have saved some dinner calories to have Chipotle for dinner tonight.
1/7 122.8 My scale has been wonky but I’m also just feeling puffy and bloated from having Thai food two days in a row. My husband and I tried the new place in the center and got a couple of their staple resulting to two days of Thai food for either lunch or dinner. It was worth it though because I hadn’t had Thai in a while! I’m drinking lots of water and dandelion tea to help with the bloat/puffy feeling. Our first “real” snow storm of season is going on outside my window and it looks so pretty! I might not feel that way in March when it’s still snowing but I’ll happily take it now lol. I did a 45 minute heavy hills/hiit spin bike ride in leu of running this morning in the storm. Then I cooled down for another 15 minutes on the bike at an easier pace. It’s been a crazy work week, hence not posting yesterday but I’m glad today is a little quieter.
1/8 122.4 At least it went down right? I’ve had a super productive day getting things done around the house. I took down the Christmas ornaments and lights, went grocery shopping, made bread which came out better than last weeks, cleaned the aero garden before my new flowers arrive for it, put a load of laundry in the wash, have an empty sink, and a couple other things. For physical activity, I decided to give my body a full rest day today but I have at least 100 active calories on my garmin watch. I woke up with a ton of energy and was dressed an out of bed by 6 this morning. It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much energy, so I wanted to take advantage of it. Breakfast was cereal, lunch was a cheese and crackers with some fruit, a snack was a slice or two of my bread and dinner will be beef bulgogi with sauteed mushrooms, cabbage, and onions. My goal this week is to eat more vegetables during the day. So tomorrow I’m going to cut up some veggies that will be easy to munch on during the week.
1/9 120.6 That’s a better number and I feel it too. I felt less puffy/bloated this morning. I did a 30 minute spin bike ride and then my husband and I went for a walk around the local pond trail. Breakfast consisted of eggs with peppers and caramelized onion cheddar from Trader Joes, toast with my homemade bread, and an apple; lunch will be a mini cheese board for 1 and dinner will be cranberry bbq sauce turkey meatballs served over brown rice with a side of broccoli and left over cabbage from last night. I hope every had a good weekend!
1/10 119.8 Ran 6 miles this morning. Tested out my running YakTrax and they helped give me a bit more confidence with the sporadic icy spots. My run definitely would have been more sketchy without them. I also plan to do some sort of strength training on my lunch today. On the menu tonight will be short ribs with carrots, onions, fennel, kohlrabi, and the homemade bread from Saturday. This is going to be a somewhat long week for me with a potentially very tired husband who is scheduled to work his per diem OT job every day this week because another therapist is out sick. He typically works two or three days in a row and then has a day or a few off to recover mentally/physically. Here’s to hoping we don’t hate each other by Friday with his job taking so much energy out of him/potentially increasing crankiness. Fingers crossed!
1/11 Didn’t get to post. I started one but didn’t have a chance to do the last step.
1/12 The past couple days have been bleh eating wise. TOM is arriving later this week and I’m feeling it with the fatigue and not caring about what I eat. I ran 5 miles this morning but did yoga instead of my normal strength training on Wednesdays because I was just tired and not feeling it. After work my husband and I also went for a 2ish mile walk. Hoping to feel better once TOM finally arrives. These hormonal fluctuations are rather annoying. Sorry for the complaining. On the bright side, the week is now more than halfway over.
1/13 Woke up feeling like I wanted to crawl out of my skin but luckily as the day went on I felt better. Started the day with a 45 minute bike ride and ate relatively well all day. It was another busy day at work so I’m just getting to posting now.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/7- 211.6- great day but a little worried about the weekend.
1/8- 210.8- I had a great Friday but tonight is a ‘cheat’ day. I have volleyball and it’s a beer league.
1/9- 210.4- I was expecting a slight bump. Hoping to do extremely well so I don’t see that gain tomorrow.
1/10- 210.4 - decent day yesterday, at least it was enough to stop a gain from Saturday
1/11- 209.8- had a great day and am looking forward to a great week!
1/12- 210.4 - had a great day so not sure why the gain but not getting discouraged!
1/13- 209.6- let’s hope it stays down 🤞🏼
1/14 209- good day!

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), complete all 6 programmed strength training sessions during my 4 days off per week

Previous Posts1/7 WHEW what a welcome back to work. Critical care during Covid is just not ideal. Our unit is now 8 beds and we are staffed for 12, so we will pretty much be staffing the new unstaffed Covid icu that took our place. Buuut the move has changed my trek up the stairs from 7 flights to 11 and I’m always looking for excuses to take the stairs. Leftovers for lunch. Black bean soup, avocado, and seitan for dinner. Another workday tomorrow. Protein: 135
1/8 Work 2/2 and now I’m off for 2. Since we are not in our normal unit I was having to run up and down to pharmacy a lot to get medicines that weren’t stocked and so I got plenty of stair action in today. I always close my move ring at work but rarely my exercise but the stairs have fixed that. Leftover black bean soup for lunch, broccoli dal with tofu for dinner. Protein: 148
1/9 must have tweaked my back turning patients or something yesterday cause I am hurting today. Skipped out on deadlifts and just did some rows, rowing, and step ups instead. Also skipped out on the NBA game tonight because of how bad the Covid numbers are around here.. didn’t seem like a responsible thing to do with the surge and how many staff at the hospital are already out sick. I got talked into going into work an extra day tomorrow to be the lead, so my days off are cut short. Leftovers for lunch. Lentil, sweet potato, spinach soup and seitan for dinner. Protein: 131
1/10 workday 1/3. Not a bad start to 3 in a row. I walked a ton since we are split between multiple floors and I was helping everyone out. Leftover soup for lunch and a lentil harissa garbanzo bean soup and tofu for dinner. Protein: 132
1/11 work 2/3. Supplies are really low. I’ve been walking around 8 miles and doing 60 flights of stairs at work since the unit move. I have been eating Built bars for my protein bars and the eggnog flavor was surprisingly really good. Leftover lentil, chickpea, harissa soup for lunch. Lemony, kale, orzo and seitan for dinner. Protein: 128
1/12 work 3/3 we moved again at work lol. At this point you can’t do anything but laugh and go along with it or quit. I was lead and they assigned all the rooms we were moving in the last hour or work so I was scrambling. Now we are Covid icu with a few neuro beds until things settle down I guess. I ordered a more comfortable n95 and goggles. Walked a ton. My husband made a really yummy Korean stew for dinner. Protein: 131
1/13 So nice to be at home today! And it looks like my weight is finally trending back to pre-holiday levels. I did a shoulder press, lunge, rowing workout this morning. I also meal planned and put away Christmas decorations. Good timing since a house cleaner is coming tomorrow and Christmas decorations make a lot of sparkles. Did a push day for weight lifting. I’m feeling pretty tired (could be from working 3 in a row) and my throat is a bit sore (could be my imagination).. hopefully I wake up feeling normal 😬. stir fried tempeh, cabbage, and carrots for dinner.

1/14 146.8 It felt almost like spring outside today! It was making me want to see some tulips and start my vegetable garden.. Much too soon for all that though. I had to be out of the house all day for cleaning, so I helped my mom put her Christmas decorations away. I’m nervous about being around my parents again even though we are all boosted now that Covid is so bad at the hospital and I’m in the thick of it. Cardio workout was shorter than I expected, but I did that and had a pull day with tons of rack pulls and then went for a walk. Leftovers for lunch. Red lentil, spinach, potato stew with seitan for dinner. Back to work for the weekend.. I’m dreading it. I applied for a pre-op job at the hospital much closer to my house in the suburbs because I don’t know if I can keep doing critical care in a major metro hospital with staffing and supplies how they are.

Round 174 (106th for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.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.SW: 138

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 138 – I need to take control again now. I have looked back over the last few years and this is a pattern, I don't do too bad over Christmas and then relax/go mad after New Year! So today is a new round and a new start, I need to get back at it & make each day count – easy to say, not so easy to execute!! 9.98 miles walked yesterday.
01/08 136.8 – thats better! Amazing what happens when I stick to plan, calories & macros well under & NO chocolate, not even a crumb; wouldn't even allow myself to enter the room where it is !!! Just need to stay consistent now for next 9 days. 10.21 miles walked yesterday.
01/09 137 – 9.07 miles walked yesterday. High carb day as Saturday is always pizza night in our house, but only 4 calories over & no chocolate. Today will be a challenge as we travel up to our DD to celebrate her birthday and I know birthday cake will be involved!! But I will keep it small.
01/10 137 – no walking or exercise yesterday, but a wonderful day with DD, DS & their families, good playing with little DGC. Not the best food choices ! Need to counteract today to try to prevent it showing on the scales tomorrow !
01/11 137 – 11.14 miles walked yesterday, good food choices, calories & all macros well in credit. My Fitbit is on it's way out - a few months ago the face cracked and now its only syncing & retaining a few activities. Luckily, it is counting my steps and mileage, but then not retaining it past midnight of that day, looks like I need to invest in a new one; I don't like change and see that the Charge HR is no longer available so it looks like I will be forced to have an updated model!
01/12 138 – 9.22 miles, a high carb & fat day yesterday, after walk went to my sisters new bungalow to help her decorate; 5 hours painting, up and down ladders. She provided lunch; cheese & biscuits followed by cake.
01/13 138 – 13.1 miles walked & an hour of yoga. Within calories, fat 11g over. New Fitbit to be delivered tomorrow !
01/14 137.2 – 9.72 miles walked yesterday. Calories under, carbs & fat 8g & 9g over respectively.
01/15 136.5 – 11.11 miles walked yesterday. Calories within limit, fat 6g over. New Fitbit arrived yesterday late afternoon, spent evening charging & setting up, recumbent on my wrist now, lets see how it goes. DH wore my old one last night, but didn't like the fact that his heart rate is a good 15 minutes or so faster than mine!! I'm guessing that is why his metabolism is so much faster than mine!!! Will catch up on posts later today.
01/16
KEEP SAFE EVERYONE. Keep calm – Covid is still out there take care, we're still in this together!

Hello round 174!
3rd round in a row (more before). Previous recent results -
R172 SW:104 EW:100.7 (⬇️3.3kg)
R173 SW:100.7 EW:101.4 (⬆️0.7kg)
R174 SW: 101.4 Goal: consistent <101. Go to gym twice (major problem as the gym is full of ppl these days even in generally down times)
01/07 - 100.2 🏋️♀️ (-1.2) I am not sure this happened. Was easy to keep it within calories yesterday but this can not be the result of a one time behaving. Epsecially not after the snacking in the few days before. But wil take it, need the encouragement right now.
01/08 - 100.1(-1.3) Finally empty at the gym yesterday. So went for a quick cardio + walking there and back which was refreshing at whooping -15 degrees. Still not sure why I didn't bounce but I will take it
01/09 - 100.0 (-1.4) Actually it was 99.95 but given the late weigh-in and the high chance for anomaly I didn't want to celebrate the milestone just yet.
01/10 - 100.0 (-1.4) Still rounding up. Trend line says <101 so if I don't mess this up till the end of the challenge I have at least a consistent <101 in place. Now need to see how I get to the gym with this Corona outbreak. Not easy to find low times and not sure if it is smart. But with the -18 and snow outside I don't have much alternatives.
01/11- 100.2 (-1.2) waiting for the wooosh. Yesterday was a snacking day so not surprising.
01/12 - 101.2 (-0.2) Must be salt and sedentry days. But I didn't really have that much salt I think. Is popcorn that much salty snack? Hope it is a glitch
01/13 - 101.5 (+0.1) 😐 Time to get back on track
01/14 - 100.0 (-1.4) Can't really explain this woosh
01/15 - 100.1 (-1.3) Let's see how the scale behaves tomorrow for the final round result

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 - 147 - I am going to hold myself accountable and log every piece of food I eat this weekend.
01/08 - 147
01/09 - 148.5
01/10 - 150.5 - I had a lot of sodium this weekend, but Wow!
01/11 - 150 - I was hoping yesterday's weight was an anomaly, but evidently not. I'm just going to have to stick to my eating plan.
01/12 - 149 - I've done well the past couple days with eating and movement.
01/13 - 149 - I am really shocked that I evidently gained 2 pounds last weekend. I kept hoping there would be a whoosh back to 147 or so this week. I'll keep logging my food and doing my best to get back to maintenance. I'm a little disheartened, but I've been doing this for almost 4 years and it is worth it.
01/14 - 149.5 - I have logged every bite this week, so I know the weight bump is not from what I've been eating. Sigh.
01/15 - 148 - We had pizza last night, so I pulled out the food scale to get the exact weight and nutrition on my serving. I kept within all my macros and calories so if the scale went up today, I'd know it was just water weight. I'll do the same today in case my weight bumps up tomorrow.
