Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 175

creednj

Hi - this is my first time with a challenge. When I signed in this morning and came to this pg to post my weight it didn’t bring me to my post. I had to scroll through to find it. ??? Then I had to create a new post (this one) with today’s weight because I couldn’t copy/paste onto the original. ??? Can someone please advise? Thanks.

Day/Weight/Comment

01/17 - 148 - This has to be due to some extra salt this weekend. In the meantime, I should get some exercise in today while helping my husband shovel the 13 to 14 inches of snow that fell on our driveway last night. I feel fortunate that I can call out of work today, in my younger years I would have powered through the snow with my rear wheel drive, manual transmission Chevy Chevette.
01/18 - 148 - Back to the office today. Tax season starts this week, so that means long hours, weekend work, and company bought lunches. I'll do my best to stay on track.

@quiltingjaine thanks for the book reviews.
I’m interested in The Diabetes Code and The Complete Guide to Fasting.
LOL might be joining your AUTHOR DR. JASON FUNG fan club.
I’ve dabbled with fasting but nothing over 15 hours. I'm a scaredy cat about feeling hungry.
I’ll be checking these books out through my library.


Newbies Welcome!! 👍 🥂

Best wishes to you and your weight loss journey

01/17 - 203.3 - Maybe this is the round to go below 200? I don't know. We're close to tax season so my losses are going to slow down even more but I won't give up. I will do 30 minutes of cardio and some strength every day. My wife says I don't have anything left to lose so that's good at least lol.
01/18 - 202.8 - This morning I woke up early, did a stretch, 30 minutes of strength and 40 minutes on the bike. I feel like at this point I have to believe my diet is what's holding me back from 200 so I have to reassess that I guess. It's sure not lack of exercise... I've been snacking more than I should at night and not keeping track of calories so have to tighten that up.

1/17- 199.0 (-1.0) A new low today. Weight loss has slowed a bit, but averaging 1.2 pounds a week (per Happy Scale) I’m glad I log my weight everyday, otherwise I’d think I was plateauing. Orange Theory Fitness was good yesterday. I’m so much stronger. It surprises me every time. I usually go once a week and then swim 2x and hike. I may add one more OTF workout in each week. That might get me losing a little more. No organized exercise today, but I have a busy day so It’s easier to stay on plan.
1/18- 199.2 (-.8) I wore a pair of 16W Levi jeans yesterday after they sat in my closet for almost ten years. I had to remove the tags, finally. They were my “someday” jeans. They are a little snug in the waist so I have a little muffin top, but not so tight that I was afraid the button would pop off and injure someone. It felt so good!! Today is swimming and painting in my studio. Hoping for a downward move on the scale tomorrow. In the 190’s for two days in a row is fabulous!! Now just to get all my water in…

Newbie here! Hi, I’m Kathy.

Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.

Return to MFP SW (Dec 2021): 267

UGW for now: 200, then reevaluate

Goal for this round: less than I started with

Day/Weight/Comment
1/17 259.8. Happy to be in the group! This weekend was tough. I always seem to struggle with getting my water in on weekends. Below on calories every day though, including today. I guess we’ll see what tomorrow morning shows us.
1/18 259.2 Back to work today. Post-COVID I am working completely remotely, which doesn’t help my already sedentary self. Meals are planned. I’m going to try taking a lunch break and doing a workout. I think it will be helpful for my physical and mental health.

😎I'm hovering BELOW 140 (down 87lbs) 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
• In Maintenance since July 2019
• Smart BMI - optimal weight.
• Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range

Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily.
People are still dying out there……… and the numbers are on the rise again.
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷

January focus:
maintain weight < 145 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
• A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
• Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
• The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
• Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
• The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
• When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
• Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

01/18 …..193.8 ….. Trend weight 193.0) Good meals but too much grazing during the day. Extra hungry for some reason. Today there will be more work on the living room reno project. This project will last several weeks. No room. Furniture covered and in the center. No privacy again. However, the dining room turned out nice and the living room will be an even bigger impact! Glad to be getting some of this out of the way during the cold snowy and icy months. I will need some alone time to leave the house to walk when the weather gets better.

@CamandJarvis Prayers! For your mom, dad, and you!

And thank you all for the prayers for my neighbor with COVID. After spending a week in the hospital, she is home. On two antibiotics and a cough medicine for the bronchitis turned pneumonia. If the doctor had just given her the antibiotics she originally asked him to prescribe when she knew she had bronchitis!!!!

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.

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.

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.

In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.

In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs

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!"

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.
