    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!😷
    JULY focus:
    maintain weight < 140 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
    Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
    I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    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!

    I am about 8.2 kg along the way to lose 32 kg. I use multiple tape measurements (cm) around my body because they aren't affected by salt intake. My weight has been dropping for 5 months now. Apparently I've been trying to lose weight since September 2012, the last time I was at goal weight. Let's see if stopping eating sugary food is going to change things.

    Heaviest ever 1st Jan 2021, goal+31.8 kg
    * means kg lost
    Round 181 ending 856 cm
    Round 182 ending 851 cm
    Round 183 ending 844.5 cm *
    Round 184 ending 841 cm
    Round 185 ending 836 cm
    Round 186 ending 833 cm *
    Round 187 ending 830 cm
    Round 188 ending 826 cm
    Round 189 ending 822.5 cm *
    Round 190 ending 817 cm
    Round 191 ending 814.5 cm
    Round 192 ending 812 cm
    Round 193 ending 808 cm *
    ...
    Round 262 ??? goal weight

    bolded numbers means dropped by 0.5 cm

    101.5 95.0 103.0 58.5 48.0 56.0 49.0 103.5 97.0 103.0 26th
    104.0 95.0 103.0 59.5 48.5 57.5 47.0 105.0 98.0 103.0 27th
    105.0 96.0 104.0 59.0 50.0 56.0 48.0 103.5 95.5 103.5 28th
    102.5 96.0 105.0 59.0 49.5 56.0 47.0 103.0 96.5 102.0 29th
    102.0 93.5 103.5 59.5 48.5 57.5 47.0 102.0 98.0 102.0 30th
    100.5 94.5 103.0 59.5 48.5 55.5 47.5 103.5 98.0 103.0 31st
    102.5 95.0 103.0 59.0 50.5 56.0 46.5 102.0 97.5 102.5 1st
    103.0 95.5 103.0 60.0 50.5 57.0 46.0 102.0 97.0 104.5 2nd
    103.0 94.5 102.5 58.5 48.0 56.5 47.0 101.5 94.5 103.5 3rd
    102.5 96.5 104.5 60.0 49.0 57.0 47.0 104.0 97.5 104.0 4th
    This calculates to 805 cm, a loss from the last round

    How this round went: it would be fair to say that I ate too much this round, which seems to be my thing at the moment. I have moved, which means for various reasons I'm hoping that I'll lose weight faster from now on. I didn't do any exercise at the old place but I'm now at the gym, on the treadmill and walking with the expectation of running for a while within a month. Still having sugar, unfortunately.
