🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
Day 1: Sun, 1/30: 211.4 Walked 3.9 miles, 1823 cal (-99 red), 100 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
Highly recommend this recipe for a London Broil. I cooked it twice now ... in the oven and grilled and both turn out great. Love the marinade (2-12 hrs). I used Tamari (Japanese form of soy sauce) instead of the Coconut Aminos. Think I’m going to try the marinade out on chicken next.

Day 2: Mon, 1/31: 210.1 Walked 3 miles, 1763 cal (-112 red), 65 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. The above marinade works wonders with chicken legs! Completed menu plan and grocery list for this week. Also prepped the Unit 1 for volunteer teaching ESL/LEM (Learn English Ministry).Day 3: Tues, 2/1: 210.2 Rain so no walk, Strength Training 1 hr, 1867 cal (-350 red), 51 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Successful grocery shopping trip this morning led to following through with my menu planning for lunch & dinner! BONUS: I did NOT pick up a Snickers at the checkout when grocery shopping.
Day 4: Wed, 2/2: 211.8 Walked 1.5 miles, 2082 cal (-575 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine + bourbon & diet sprite. Skipped strength training class since I’m teaching English on Tues & Thurs mornings now. I need to find a new exercise schedule that works! Loved my new photography with the cell phone class! Great plan for both lunch & dinner. HOWEVER, the community center gave me a box of fried rice, egg roll and fortune cookie to celebrate lunar new year when I went to class. I took it home and added it to our dinner … which took me into the red for the day.
Day 5: Thurs, 2/3: 212.2 Walked 1.3 miles, 2033 cal (-569 red), 71 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. Crazy day driving up early after not sleeping well to babysit granddaughter while my DIL went to doctor, both lunch & dinner dined out, no real exercise … short walk but skipped my strength training class in the evening because I was exhausted. Terrible excuses and the number on the scale is a reflection of my poor choices.
Day 6: Fri, 2/4: 210.1 Walked 1.3 miles, 1690 cal (-199 red), 63 net carbs, 1 bourbon & diet sprite. Watched the 2007 movie Waitress on Amazon. Then watched on YouTube the Sara Bareilles concert What’s Inside - Songs From Waitress (music she created for the broadway play). It really gave insight to songs that I’ve heard her sing but didn’t know the background.
Cold for us in Houston this morning. 29degress wet weather so schools are closed for the day.
Day 7: Sat, 2/5: 209.9 No walk, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine. Dinner at my daughter’s home. Requested to bring dessert so made lemon raspberry cupcakes for Fri & Sat night.
1st Week Actual Weight:209.9
1st Week Weight Loss: 2.1
Cold & wet weather kept me from exercising as much plus the volunteer teaching that overlaps with my exercise class. But those are just excuses … I can do much better with the meals, snacks and exercise. No choice on the meals Fri & Sat night but I did do well with portion control! I was the only one that didn’t go back for seconds.
Day 8: Sun, 2/6: 211.0 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 blackberry liquor w/ club soda + 1 glass wine. Lunch at restaurant and then dinner at our friend’s home.
Day 9: Mon, 2/7: 212.1 Walked 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. All the lemon raspberry cupcakes are now consumed! That was a yummy but terrible diet killer. Ate ~2-3 each day … Fri, Sat & Sun. Tried out a fun recipe Supreme Pizza (no crust) in a cast iron skillet. DH loved it too. I used Italian sausage instead of hamburger. https://lowcarbquick.com/deep-dish-pizza-casserole-keto
Day 10: Tues, 2/8: 212.1 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Accomplished a lot of to dos that have been on my list for a month … serviced car, submitted paperwork to HOA for window & siding replacement, dog to vet, etc etc.
Day 11: Wed, 2/9: 212.4 Walked 2.9 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 12: Thurs, 2/10: 211.4 Walked 2.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lunch w/ DD. Purchased way too many cookies at the bakery and the grocery store! What was I thinking? Ate at least half a dozen.
Day 13: Fri, 2/11: 211.9 Walked 2.9 + .8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Outside of volunteer teaching English … what did I accomplish? Definitely ate the rest of the cookies which was not helpful!
Day 14: Sat, 2/12: 213.3 Strength Training 1 hr, No walk … lunch with DD, DIL and granddaughter, late afternoon drive with DH & our dog with the windows down on a beautiful day, happy hour glass of wine at 4pm and people watched. Too many snacks in the evening and not enough will power … total wine for the day 4 glasses.

The I don't give a dxxx attitude has got to stop. No more buying bakery cookies and eating a dozen. No more gobbling down chips at lunch and then snacking on them after dinner too. Eating out almost every day is also killing my good intentions. Mentally I'm a mess when it comes to wanting to lose the weight and it shows on the scale. I've gained back everything I lost in 2021.
Made my menu for this week. Plan to grocery shop today and put healthier items in the pantry. Also need to get back to more exercise ... slacking off on the walking because I'm driving into town more often to meet up with my daughter and daughter-in-law for lunch multiple days. No excuse ... I could still walk on these days.
Day 15: Sun: 2/13: 213.0 No exercise but busy all day meal planning, groceries, making decorations for baby shower, reading, visiting, etc. ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
Day 16: Mon: 2/14: 212.1 Walked 2.8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Super Bowl and did fairly well food wise … since I brought the veggies & dips and boiled shrimp. Dinner grilled hamburger no bun.
Day 17: Tues: 2/15: 213.5 Walked 1.2 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 18: Wed: 2/16: 210.5 SICK (sinus infection tested negative for covid) all day Tuesday. No exercise. Lots of sleep. ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.

This is my 9th round on this forum, I joined it at 158.6
Day 15: Sun: 2/13: 139.0 - I didn't eat all day trying to mitigate Ribs from Friday. Dinner was not really nutritional, but kept the calories in check.
Day 16: Mon: 2/14: Spent the day continuing to empty and clean my friend's house that she has sold. Same as the day before, I basically did not eat during the day. I will get back to some more normal eating later this week, and then am planning a nice cleanse toward the end of the month to reset myself and figure out what foods should stay or go.
Day 17: Tues: 2/15: Missed forums, but kept tracking.
Day 18: Wed: 2/16: 139.2 - Getting back to my normal routine. My friend departed this morning for Calgary, and flies out of there in the wee hours tomorrow. Tearful and sad to see her go.

“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 195.2
Day 01…..01/30….197.6…..(Trend weight 194.6) Gaining 2 ½ pounds a day is crazy. Small drops in-between but then large 2 ½ lb leaps. Yesterday was pizza for lunch and pizza for dinner. Real Chocolate and regular milk. All bad news! I’ll work harder today. I’m not hitting the 200 mark again! I’ve worked too hard!
Day 02…..01/31…..197.0…..(Trend weight 194.9) This had GOT to be a better round and it’s not just for vain reasons. Health, health, health. Good luck Everyone. Let’s go get real proud of ourselves!
Day 03…..02/01…..197.0…..(Trend weight 195.1) No change. Grateful for no uptick. Yesterday was not perfect.
Day 04…..02/02…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.3) Good meals. Bad snacks. No TMI. No exercise/movement worth noting. I did get on my exercise bike late night for what seemed like hours (probably about 5 minutes.) DGS work me up this morning at 5:10 so I am floating on just over 3 hours sleep and this is an early weigh-in. Nothing going right this morning. I hope the day gets better. At least I figured out how to fix his TV!
Day 05…..02/03…..195.8…..(Trend weight 195.4) Glad to see a better drop. A little frustrating going up big-time and down a smidgen at a time. But I know it’s all part of the soup and my choices are the main ingredient. As I’ve said before, we can’t outrun the fork or the spoon!
Day 06…..02/04…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.5) Mexican tasted high sodium but I kept the rest of the day good. Lots of sleep last night but no TMI this morning worth nothing. Surprise restaurant food later from my daughter is coming. I will split it into late lunch and dinner if it’s big. Very very very low calorie burn, steps and miles yesterday according to my fitbit. A record low most likely!
Day 07…..02/05…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.6) I had such a horrible binge last night that it was actually partially parked in my throat with no more room in the stomach. Likely the worst I’ve ever had with no understanding of what triggered me or why. It was a particularly difficult day babysitting the DGS. His fits are difficult. Could it be that? I’m not sure but I am shocked the scale did not reflect even an ounce (yet). I’m sure it’s coming for my scale soon!
Day 08…..02/06…..194.6…..(Trend weight 195.5) Nothing showed up from that horrid binge. Divine intervention or I’m still waiting? We shall see. In any case, it was the opposite affect. A nice drop on the scale. I did burn about 300 more calories than I have been of late due to normal unplanned busy circumstances. Smiling today and hoping I can stay on track. I’m going shopping at dollar store today for certain things I need. I’ve got to stay away from junk!
Day 09…..02/07…..195.4…..(Trend weight 195.5) I had a day yesterday that made me prouder than I have been in awhile. Scale tipped up from prior transgressions most likely, but trend weight is holding steady and I’m feeling pretty good. Last stages of Livingroom temporary project is completed but furniture will remain covered and a bit askew so that the new wall(s) can be put in. There is a header between the dining area and the livingroom that juts down and is stupid looking. I plan on making it a bit lower, building walls (small ones to keep the open concept idea) slightly arching both sides to tie into the rest of the general area and making it look more like a door header instead of a supporting beam. After the build it will be drywalled, primed and painted and trimmed out as needed. My guy is slow but dedicated. This will take way longer than it should. But it will be worth it. Tomorrow I go pick up a free jacuzzi jetted bathtub that has been given to me by my seamstress. I’m so happy to get this. I will use it in my master bathroom reno when we get there. THAT is going to be a big project! I’m moving my bedroom closets, taking the old closet space to widen the bathroom and moving ALL the plumbing and drains. It opens in the hallway now, but when completed, it will open from inside my bedroom to make it a master suite. There is the other full and newly remodeled bath nearby for the rest of the floor. I don’t need two as bad as I need one in my bedroom. I will lose some bedroom space but it’s 24 feet long and I’m only going to take around 2.5 feet of it so it is well worth it. That’s another day, another dollar though. Right now I need that horrible supporting beam addressed!
Day 10…..02/08…..193.4…..(Trend weight 195.3) A welcomed whoosh! Kept yesterday pretty clean. Sugar-free chocolate only!
Day 11…..02/09…..193.4…..(Trend weight 195.1) I am thrilled the whoosh is sticking. So, I didn’t expect much of a change today due to that whoosh. I will try to be thoughtful today and maybe move a little more if possible.
Day 12…..02/10…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.2) My daughter bought pizza last night for us and a handyman that was working. 2.6 lbs for a reasonable amount of pizza! The rest of the day (earlier) was on point. Wow! That pizza tasted salty. Just not used to it, I guess!
Day 13…..02/11…..194.8…..(Trend weight 195.1) An okay day yesterday reflected better on the scale. Doctor appointments today for son & I for diabetes. Also for heart for me. They are going to send me to a heart and vascular center I guess. It doesn’t pay to flunk two EKG’s. They were supposed to do it late last fall but had trouble with insurance. Then I let it go due to all the holidays and then my brother’s death. Time to get things right with my heart now. I’ve gotten to the point where I am a little afraid to even exercise with all the sinking and fluttering I am feeling. Need answers.
Day 14…..02/12…..197.8…..(Trend weight 195.4) Fasted until 3:00 for doctor appointment/bloodwork. Then subway and cake. Cake twice. Did I take advantage of the fact I won’t have glucose checked by doctor for another 3 months? Probably. Regrets today.
Day 15……02/13…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.6) I was so sick last night from all of this weeks bad choices. Pizza, Subway, Cake etc. All too rich. My body could not get enough water yesterday as it tried to flush everything out to save this diabetic from a hospital trip. My sugar read 438 an hour after my medication. I’m smarter than this. I just need to win this staring competition with my diabetes. I will not blink today!
Day 16…..02/14…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) A great day yesterday which I am disappointed did not reflect on the scale. Over 14,000 steps, over 6 miles and 3047 calories burned overall including my normal expenditure. Diet was light and on-point. No cheats. The scale is playing games with me but I know if I stay on point it will eventually have to be honest. I was proud of yesterday. The numbers were all in hard work cleaning out master bdrm to get new bedroom set and that was a back and forth chore. But I worked really hard! Going thru lots of clothes today too. No point in putting back in things I’m not wearing or no longer like. I know I had some dietary cheats this week that are probably reflecting on the scale today. So today I pay the piper and hope for a better tomorrow.
Day 17…..02/15…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.8) There’s the drop I was hoping for. Lots of calorie burn again yesterday still sorting through the bedroom. Lots of storage in there from the living room project that is underway so extra stuff ugh! Living room is moving right along. Drywall dusty but looking good. I’ve been keeping the diet on point and hope to keep up the momentum today. Going through more clothing and “STUFF” today so there should be a good calorie burn again.
Day 18…..02/16…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.7) This is a couple of good days in a row of diet and movement finally showing up in a bigger better way. Yesterday was another very good day on both fronts until…..that late night bagel (Starving!) with honey butter on it and the handful of jolly ranchers (couple hundred calories?). Glad I didn’t sabotage the scale with it, unless it shows up later……To be continued.

Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
Day 1: Sun, 1/30: 211.4 Walked 3.9 miles, 1823 cal (-99 red), 100 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
Highly recommend this recipe for a London Broil. I cooked it twice now ... in the oven and grilled and both turn out great. Love the marinade (2-12 hrs). I used Tamari (Japanese form of soy sauce) instead of the Coconut Aminos. Think I’m going to try the marinade out on chicken next.

Day 2: Mon, 1/31: 210.1 Walked 3 miles, 1763 cal (-112 red), 65 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. The above marinade works wonders with chicken legs! Completed menu plan and grocery list for this week. Also prepped the Unit 1 for volunteer teaching ESL/LEM (Learn English Ministry).Day 3: Tues, 2/1: 210.2 Rain so no walk, Strength Training 1 hr, 1867 cal (-350 red), 51 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Successful grocery shopping trip this morning led to following through with my menu planning for lunch & dinner! BONUS: I did NOT pick up a Snickers at the checkout when grocery shopping.
Day 4: Wed, 2/2: 211.8 Walked 1.5 miles, 2082 cal (-575 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine + bourbon & diet sprite. Skipped strength training class since I’m teaching English on Tues & Thurs mornings now. I need to find a new exercise schedule that works! Loved my new photography with the cell phone class! Great plan for both lunch & dinner. HOWEVER, the community center gave me a box of fried rice, egg roll and fortune cookie to celebrate lunar new year when I went to class. I took it home and added it to our dinner … which took me into the red for the day.
Day 5: Thurs, 2/3: 212.2 Walked 1.3 miles, 2033 cal (-569 red), 71 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. Crazy day driving up early after not sleeping well to babysit granddaughter while my DIL went to doctor, both lunch & dinner dined out, no real exercise … short walk but skipped my strength training class in the evening because I was exhausted. Terrible excuses and the number on the scale is a reflection of my poor choices.
Day 6: Fri, 2/4: 210.1 Walked 1.3 miles, 1690 cal (-199 red), 63 net carbs, 1 bourbon & diet sprite. Watched the 2007 movie Waitress on Amazon. Then watched on YouTube the Sara Bareilles concert What’s Inside - Songs From Waitress (music she created for the broadway play). It really gave insight to songs that I’ve heard her sing but didn’t know the background.
Cold for us in Houston this morning. 29degress wet weather so schools are closed for the day.
Day 7: Sat, 2/5: 209.9 No walk, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine. Dinner at my daughter’s home. Requested to bring dessert so made lemon raspberry cupcakes for Fri & Sat night.
1st Week Goal Weight: <210

1st Week Weight Loss: 2.1
Cold & wet weather kept me from exercising as much plus the volunteer teaching that overlaps with my exercise class. But those are just excuses … I can do much better with the meals, snacks and exercise. No choice on the meals Fri & Sat night but I did do well with portion control! I was the only one that didn’t go back for seconds.
Day 8: Sun, 2/6: 211.0 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 blackberry liquor w/ club soda + 1 glass wine. Lunch at restaurant and then dinner at our friend’s home.
Day 9: Mon, 2/7: 212.1 Walked 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. All the lemon raspberry cupcakes are now consumed! That was a yummy but terrible diet killer. Ate ~2-3 each day … Fri, Sat & Sun. Tried out a fun recipe Supreme Pizza (no crust) in a cast iron skillet. DH loved it too. I used Italian sausage instead of hamburger. https://lowcarbquick.com/deep-dish-pizza-casserole-keto
Day 10: Tues, 2/8: 212.1 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Accomplished a lot of to dos that have been on my list for a month … serviced car, submitted paperwork to HOA for window & siding replacement, dog to vet, etc etc.
Day 11: Wed, 2/9: 212.4 Walked 2.9 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 12: Thurs, 2/10: 211.4 Walked 2.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lunch w/ DD. Purchased way too many cookies at the bakery and the grocery store! What was I thinking? Ate at least half a dozen.
Day 13: Fri, 2/11: 211.9 Walked 2.9 + .8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Outside of volunteer teaching English … what did I accomplish? Definitely ate the rest of the cookies which was not helpful!
Day 14: Sat, 2/12: 213.3 Strength Training 1 hr, No walk … lunch with DD, DIL and granddaughter, late afternoon drive with DH & our dog with the windows down on a beautiful day, happy hour glass of wine at 4pm and people watched. Too many snacks in the evening and not enough will power … total wine for the day 4 glasses.
2ndWeek Actual Weight: 213.3
2nd Week Weight GAIN: 3.4
The I don't give a dxxx attitude has got to stop. No more buying bakery cookies and eating a dozen. No more gobbling down chips at lunch and then snacking on them after dinner too. Eating out almost every day is also killing my good intentions. Mentally I'm a mess when it comes to wanting to lose the weight and it shows on the scale. I've gained back everything I lost in 2021.
Made my menu for this week. Plan to grocery shop today and put healthier items in the pantry. Also need to get back to more exercise ... slacking off on the walking because I'm driving into town more often to meet up with my daughter and daughter-in-law for lunch multiple days. No excuse ... I could still walk on these days.
Day 15: Sun: 2/13: 213.0 No exercise but busy all day meal planning, groceries, making decorations for baby shower, reading, visiting, etc. ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
Day 16: Mon: 2/14: 212.1 Walked 2.8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Super Bowl and did fairly well food wise … since I brought the veggies & dips and boiled shrimp. Dinner grilled hamburger no bun.
Day 17: Tues: 2/15: 213.5 Walked 1.2 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
Day 18: Wed: 2/16: 210.5 SICK (sinus infection tested negative for covid) all day Tuesday. No exercise. Lots of sleep. ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.
Day 19: Thurs: 2/17: 211.0 Walked .9 miles. Started my normal walk but then it started to rain. ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 margarita. Worked on my long to do list and led book club at a new restaurant we wanted to try out. Mexican food and it looks like it will be a popular place for our group in the future.

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ January 30, 2022 through May 9, 2022
My Name is Donna, Age 61. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 195.2
Day 01…..01/30….197.6…..(Trend weight 194.6) Gaining 2 ½ pounds a day is crazy. Small drops in-between but then large 2 ½ lb leaps. Yesterday was pizza for lunch and pizza for dinner. Real Chocolate and regular milk. All bad news! I’ll work harder today. I’m not hitting the 200 mark again! I’ve worked too hard!
Day 02…..01/31…..197.0…..(Trend weight 194.9) This had GOT to be a better round and it’s not just for vain reasons. Health, health, health. Good luck Everyone. Let’s go get real proud of ourselves!
Day 03…..02/01…..197.0…..(Trend weight 195.1) No change. Grateful for no uptick. Yesterday was not perfect.
Day 04…..02/02…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.3) Good meals. Bad snacks. No TMI. No exercise/movement worth noting. I did get on my exercise bike late night for what seemed like hours (probably about 5 minutes.) DGS work me up this morning at 5:10 so I am floating on just over 3 hours sleep and this is an early weigh-in. Nothing going right this morning. I hope the day gets better. At least I figured out how to fix his TV!
Day 05…..02/03…..195.8…..(Trend weight 195.4) Glad to see a better drop. A little frustrating going up big-time and down a smidgen at a time. But I know it’s all part of the soup and my choices are the main ingredient. As I’ve said before, we can’t outrun the fork or the spoon!
Day 06…..02/04…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.5) Mexican tasted high sodium but I kept the rest of the day good. Lots of sleep last night but no TMI this morning worth nothing. Surprise restaurant food later from my daughter is coming. I will split it into late lunch and dinner if it’s big. Very very very low calorie burn, steps and miles yesterday according to my fitbit. A record low most likely!
Day 07…..02/05…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.6) I had such a horrible binge last night that it was actually partially parked in my throat with no more room in the stomach. Likely the worst I’ve ever had with no understanding of what triggered me or why. It was a particularly difficult day babysitting the DGS. His fits are difficult. Could it be that? I’m not sure but I am shocked the scale did not reflect even an ounce (yet). I’m sure it’s coming for my scale soon!
Day 08…..02/06…..194.6…..(Trend weight 195.5) Nothing showed up from that horrid binge. Divine intervention or I’m still waiting? We shall see. In any case, it was the opposite affect. A nice drop on the scale. I did burn about 300 more calories than I have been of late due to normal unplanned busy circumstances. Smiling today and hoping I can stay on track. I’m going shopping at dollar store today for certain things I need. I’ve got to stay away from junk!
Day 09…..02/07…..195.4…..(Trend weight 195.5) I had a day yesterday that made me prouder than I have been in awhile. Scale tipped up from prior transgressions most likely, but trend weight is holding steady and I’m feeling pretty good. Last stages of Livingroom temporary project is completed but furniture will remain covered and a bit askew so that the new wall(s) can be put in. There is a header between the dining area and the livingroom that juts down and is stupid looking. I plan on making it a bit lower, building walls (small ones to keep the open concept idea) slightly arching both sides to tie into the rest of the general area and making it look more like a door header instead of a supporting beam. After the build it will be drywalled, primed and painted and trimmed out as needed. My guy is slow but dedicated. This will take way longer than it should. But it will be worth it. Tomorrow I go pick up a free jacuzzi jetted bathtub that has been given to me by my seamstress. I’m so happy to get this. I will use it in my master bathroom reno when we get there. THAT is going to be a big project! I’m moving my bedroom closets, taking the old closet space to widen the bathroom and moving ALL the plumbing and drains. It opens in the hallway now, but when completed, it will open from inside my bedroom to make it a master suite. There is the other full and newly remodeled bath nearby for the rest of the floor. I don’t need two as bad as I need one in my bedroom. I will lose some bedroom space but it’s 24 feet long and I’m only going to take around 2.5 feet of it so it is well worth it. That’s another day, another dollar though. Right now I need that horrible supporting beam addressed!
Day 10…..02/08…..193.4…..(Trend weight 195.3) A welcomed whoosh! Kept yesterday pretty clean. Sugar-free chocolate only!
Day 11…..02/09…..193.4…..(Trend weight 195.1) I am thrilled the whoosh is sticking. So, I didn’t expect much of a change today due to that whoosh. I will try to be thoughtful today and maybe move a little more if possible.
Day 12…..02/10…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.2) My daughter bought pizza last night for us and a handyman that was working. 2.6 lbs for a reasonable amount of pizza! The rest of the day (earlier) was on point. Wow! That pizza tasted salty. Just not used to it, I guess!
Day 13…..02/11…..194.8…..(Trend weight 195.1) An okay day yesterday reflected better on the scale. Doctor appointments today for son & I for diabetes. Also for heart for me. They are going to send me to a heart and vascular center I guess. It doesn’t pay to flunk two EKG’s. They were supposed to do it late last fall but had trouble with insurance. Then I let it go due to all the holidays and then my brother’s death. Time to get things right with my heart now. I’ve gotten to the point where I am a little afraid to even exercise with all the sinking and fluttering I am feeling. Need answers.
Day 14…..02/12…..197.8…..(Trend weight 195.4) Fasted until 3:00 for doctor appointment/bloodwork. Then subway and cake. Cake twice. Did I take advantage of the fact I won’t have glucose checked by doctor for another 3 months? Probably. Regrets today.
Day 15……02/13…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.6) I was so sick last night from all of this weeks bad choices. Pizza, Subway, Cake etc. All too rich. My body could not get enough water yesterday as it tried to flush everything out to save this diabetic from a hospital trip. My sugar read 438 an hour after my medication. I’m smarter than this. I just need to win this staring competition with my diabetes. I will not blink today!
Day 16…..02/14…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) A great day yesterday which I am disappointed did not reflect on the scale. Over 14,000 steps, over 6 miles and 3047 calories burned overall including my normal expenditure. Diet was light and on-point. No cheats. The scale is playing games with me but I know if I stay on point it will eventually have to be honest. I was proud of yesterday. The numbers were all in hard work cleaning out master bdrm to get new bedroom set and that was a back and forth chore. But I worked really hard! Going thru lots of clothes today too. No point in putting back in things I’m not wearing or no longer like. I know I had some dietary cheats this week that are probably reflecting on the scale today. So today I pay the piper and hope for a better tomorrow.
Day 17…..02/15…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.8) There’s the drop I was hoping for. Lots of calorie burn again yesterday still sorting through the bedroom. Lots of storage in there from the living room project that is underway so extra stuff ugh! Living room is moving right along. Drywall dusty but looking good. I’ve been keeping the diet on point and hope to keep up the momentum today. Going through more clothing and “STUFF” today so there should be a good calorie burn again.
Day 18…..02/16…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.7) This is a couple of good days in a row of diet and movement finally showing up in a bigger better way. Yesterday was another very good day on both fronts until…..that late night bagel (Starving!) with honey butter on it and the handful of jolly ranchers (couple hundred calories?). Glad I didn’t sabotage the scale with it, unless it shows up later……To be continued.
Day 19…..02/17…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.7) Up & Down by about a pound and a half over and over. It’s getting annoying. Diet on point all day. A little less movement than the prior couple of days but still not too bad. I’m thinking it’s those jolly ranchers from the other day. But still…..that is a big jump on the scale!

@deepwoodslady - I was reading back and noticed the really really high blood sugar reading you had that was very dangerous. I'm curious if your spikes have been more under control and how you handle those situations. Keeping you in my thoughts as always.deepwoodslady wrote: »

@Lilylady3k My A1C I believe was 11.4 three months ago so no improvement. Even with the new Trulicity that I've been taking for 3 months now. Doctor has doubled the dose (which started this past Tuesday) so maybe that will help. But the best thing to help this is more movement (difficult right now), and a better diet with a LOT less carbs and NO REFINED SUGAR. That is the complete opposite of what I have been doing/choosing. This is really completely my own fault. I seriously could do much better. Thanks for the tip on the SF Jolly Ranchers. If our one grocery store don't have them, I try the dollar store. If not, I'll check Amazon. I generally (unfortunately) prefer chocolate over other candies, but something sour is nice every now & then. I did find the SF small packs (5 pcs) of Russell Stovers chocolates at Dollar General. I eat 2-3 pcs at night when I'm on my game so each bag lasts about 2 days for $1.75. It completely quenches my chocolate craving. Or I eat one square of 90% cacao chocolate (very strong and bitter). But that is only when I'm really trying. Otherwise, ice cream, cookies, Pop Tarts etc. And THAT has got to stop. I'll let you know if I find the Jolly ranchers.2
