Carry over from my grief splurge. This too shall pass. I’m hoping to get out for a long walk on our beautiful Rivergreenway.
10/25 - 177.6
That’s better.
10/26 - 178.2
Pitch-in lunch yesterday with my creative group. I did skip dinner, but also ate well at lunch and some of it was salty. Mostly healthy, though, so that was good. I think a lot of this is H2O. On track today.
10/27 - 176.8
Yay! I knew a lot of that weight was water.

@Skyleen75 I guess that “magic shot” (LOL) is magic for people with insulin resistance and/or diabetes. As someone diagnosed with IR 30-ish years ago, mainstream doctors thought it wasn’t a “thing,” it would have been a godsend but like gastric sleeve or bypass or a “simple diet,” it is a TOOL. My daughter has used it for 6 weeks and lost 24 pounds but her carb cravings are gone. Even with tools we have to DO THE WORK. 🤷♀️ And I assume that eventually people are expected to go off the shot and they need to be able to cope. I totally empathize!3

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. I’ve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

SW RND 203 122.5
10/24 122.0 Today was my art quilt group. I left the house at 8:30 and got home around 2:30. Lots of sitting and driving!
10/25 122.0 My glucose and ketones were great this morning considering we had McRib and fries for dinner! DH read they’re back - maybe for the last time and wanted to see if they were as good as the first time - decades ago at the Riverboat McDonald’s in St. Louis. They’re not.
10/26 122.5 Went to brunch at Omelet House, ate 1 slice of sourdough and some fried potatoes as well as about 1/4 of my 6 egg Chile verde omelet.
10/27 123.0
10/28 123.0 I was 123.5 when I got up but after 6 cups of coffee and TMI x 2, I reweighed. That’s not something I usually do but I felt lighter.
10/29 123.5 Had pot roast and veg (no potatoes for me) for the first time in months. Not DH’s favorite-he tolerates it on occasion because I like it. ❤️ Doctor wasn’t happy with my BP, med asst said “those cuffs aren’t very accurate” before she even checked my BP which is ALWAYS up in office however, I showed her that it was within a couple of points of their machine and my BP is good when not there. He said I had only taken the one med for “a couple of days” but I had taken it for about 2 YEARS (he initiated it) when I realized it was the cause of my vertigo. Added another med which I wasn’t able to pick up when I was headed home from errands in the afternoon. Sorry for the rant - not checking BP now!!!6 -

This will be my 14th round and I have lost a total of 28.9 pounds so far while doing these challenges! This challenge brings me the most success and is much easier by breaking up my goals into smaller chunks.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24: 134.5 - another travel day, but arrived home to weigh. Not sure how accurate it was since it was later in the day.
10/25: 134.5 - Today begins recovery from 2.5 weeks of vacation where I really didn’t count any calories and probably ate my weight in carbs, desserts, fried foods, etc. Got some good exercise in, but there were too many rest days or travel days that made exercising hard.
10/26: 132.3 - Super surprised. I got a lot of exercise/move points in, but had a full-on carb binge in the evening.
10/27: 132.5 - Back to my routines…
10/28: 132.5 - Same ‘ol, same ‘ol…
10/29: 134.9 - Yikes! Did not exercise nor did I drink much water. Carb city as well…

@deepwoodslady i believe the one she is on is Saxenda but there are others. It’s a once a week injection developed to treat diabetes that can also be used to treat obesity.
I do think it’s an amazing tool and anyone struggling with weight loss who has obesity related health issues should do some research and talk to their Dr about this. Science is awesome and it can help so many people.
I guess I should be thankful that I’m very healthy and my weight loss goals are more about general fitness and fitting into my clothes😂5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24 - 162.1 (+ 0.5lbs) Oops! Thinking this has something to do with that time of the month though. Did an hour HIIT workout yesterday and stayed within my calorie goal.
10/25 - 163.1 (+1.5lbs) No clue what’s going on here 😂 Staying below calories. Did 1 HIIT workout and 1 Tabata workout yesterday + went for a walk. Maybe because I had to eat really late since I had a full day of workouts. I usually fast for about 12-14 hours in the evening/morning. I’ll see how it adjusts the next few days 😅 Maybe things improve when my period is over too. I’m still gaining muscle and putting in the work though, so it’s going to be all good eventually 🙏🏻
10/26 - 162.4 (+0.8lbs) Did an hour HIIT workout yesterday and stayed within calories. The past two days I’ve barely gotten any sleep, so it’s starting to take a toll on me. Taking a rest day today since I’ve been working out 3 days in a row. Going for 3 more days this week too, but it will involve more heavy lifting so I just want my body to feel fresh and ready.
10/27 - 162.4 (+0.8lbs) I would be lying if I said I’m not disappointed in this round. Went 100 cals over my goal yesterday, which should be perfectly fine considering I’m eating very low calorie and exercising 5-6 times a week. Hoping the weight starts budging again really soon..
10/28 - 162.7 (+1.1lbs) My body has totally decided to take a break from this weightloss thing I honestly don't mind a whole lot, I don't think my weight is that bad if I dropped a bit more in BF% - I use small/medium clothes and I can see that my body is changing despite my weight staying pretty much the same. Started with crossfit and did a WOD today - Looking forward to more. Stayed under calories. Even if it doesn't look like it from this round's weightloss, I weigh everything I put in my mouth and stick to my calorie goal.
10/29 - 160.7 (-0.9lbs) There we go! 🌟
10/30 - 160.2 (-1.4lbs) Yay 🙏🏻 Ate under calories and went for a walk.10/31
11/01
11/027 -
30/10: 111.6kg not too bad considering I went to the cinemas yesterday! Today my dad tried to move the treadmill into the house but failed, so we decided to keep it in the garage, I walked on the treadmill for half an hour and burned about 500 calories then I walked the dog under the hot sun, came home and had sausage meat pie for dinner then my sister invited me over to her house for fish and chips... umm? so I went over and had an egg burger and chips which I weighed and then came home after an hour or so.
I have gone over my daily calories by about 50. I am tempted to go on the treadmill for a while so I can keep eating, but I don't think it's a good pattern to get into, so I'm not going to. I am going to set my alarm to get up early and exercise, but I did that this morning and it either didn't go off or I slept through it.5 -

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.
time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24 125.2 -(added after a late morning weight after I forgot first thing. Guess I was retaining quite a bit of water). “Forgot” to step on the scale this morning. I also "forgot" to finish out the last round but I think it would have been a gain of 2 lbs! I have been really off track but I've been giving myself grace for the past week in the wake of the grandfather's death. No more of that, though, as I don't want to have to start over entirely. The service was very nice on Friday and gave me closure, and I was happy to see my dad was handling everything pretty well. I'm sure he'll have his ups and downs, but I think we all knew Grandaddy was ready to move on at the age of 97. This week I'm traveling for work Wednesday through Friday, then it will be Halloweekend with lots of parties so it's sure to be a challenging round for me again. I can do it, though!
10/25 - 125.4. Rough day here as my 20-month-old popped a fever overnight. He seems to be doing better, but the timing stinks because I leave for the airport at 4am tomorrow for a business trip. Very grateful my mom is still coming to help out. I’m 95% sure she already has been exposed to this via my nephew anyway. DH and I are going on a date to see Weird Al about 45 minutes from home tonight, so I’m really going to be burning the candle at both ends. I only hope the toddler can sleep through, unlike last night.
10/26 - 124.4! I don’t expect to stay here but it feels good to bust through 125. All of my sleep was in the recliner with my restless toddler, until about midnight to 3am. Then I couldn’t sleep due to travel anxiety until my alarm at 4, plus the kiddo needed me again. It’s going to be a rough day.
10/27 - DNW - travel. Shortly after I posted yesterday my dad called me and told my grandma had passed away. That's both of his parents within a week and a half. I'm a little shaken up. They were married for 75 years so maybe it's just the perfect ending to their love story. I was in the middle of my layover when I got the call. I'm kind of glad I got the call while enroute because if I'd heard about it on Tuesday night I may have yet again postponed my trip. But between this and the sick baby I am feeling like I shouldn't be here at all. I really have to make it through the study I'm doing today, though. I'm getting home at midnight on Friday and we have to drive to my hometown yet again for a funeral Saturday.
10/28 - travel
10/29 - 125.6
10/30 - 124.8. Thank you everyone for the kind words and condolences. The funeral was a little harder than I expected. I have many fond memories of her, mostly from childhood playing games on her living room floor and going on walks with her when she would still walk around her neighborhood. She was probably the first person to model the necessity of exercise to me. Unfortunately she started having a lot of foot problems many years ago, and now I know how difficult that must have been for her. Her funeral service was basically a carbon copy of my grandfather’s. It was closed casket but we got to view her before the visitation, and she looked beautiful and peaceful.
The toddler has hand-foot-and-mouth disease, so we didn’t get to go to the dinner my dad hosted. Instead, we drove home and didn’t spend the night, which honestly I am grateful for because our house is in total shambles after all the chaos. I am going to make a meal plan for the week now. I hope everyone has a restorative Sunday.

October 24 - November 2, 2022
Please join us starting on 10/24 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 203!
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.

As someone diagnosed with IR 30-ish years ago, mainstream doctors thought it wasn’t a “thing,” it would have been a godsend but like gastric sleeve or bypass or a “simple diet,” it is a TOOL. My daughter has used it for 6 weeks and lost 24 pounds but her carb cravings are gone. Even with tools we have to DO THE WORK. 🤷♀️ And I assume that eventually people are expected to go off the shot and they need to be able to cope. I totally empathize!
@quiltingjaine I take a once per week shot for my type 2 called Trulicity. It does not contain the drug Semaglutide which can cause weight loss. It does state that you may even lose up to 10 pounds while taking it. My girlfried takes it for her diabetes. In the last 90 days she has lost 15 pounds, and 10 pounds in the 3 months prior to that. After the 25 pound weight loss, she still takes shot but has been taken off her Metformin diabetes medications. Me, on the other hand, I have gained weight while taking it. It doesn't help me feel full when I eat. And it's not helping my diabetic numbers either. My weight has went up and so has my daily glucose numbers. Every time I take the shot I get an allergic reaction at the injection site. Rash and severe lump. My friend says the allergy is why it doesn't work the same for me. Of course, I've reported it to my doctor but she has only increased the dose as my numbers have gotten worse. She has also referred me to an endocrinologist but I can't get in until Feb. My doctor says my insurance won't cover anything with Semagludtide. I may just call my insurance company myself. I need something that will work better on my glucose numbers. Any weight loss side effects would be a plus, especially for my diabetes. But changing habits are always key and cannot be substituted. I do understand that 100%. In the end, I think we all want healthier lifestyles and I agree that this is just a TOOL, not an answer. But I would be willing to try it for all the reasons stated above.1 -

My theory is that if we had them on hand, we would take them and not get tested and not keep the positive numbers up.
DD, DGD, and infant DGGS flew to a wedding last weekend. On the flight on Friday night they had beverage and snack service, on the flight back on Sunday there was none “due to COVID.” Same airline. 🤦♀️🤷♀️🤦♀️

SW RND 203 122.5
10/24 122.0 Today was my art quilt group. I left the house at 8:30 and got home around 2:30. Lots of sitting and driving!
10/25 122.0 My glucose and ketones were great this morning considering we had McRib and fries for dinner! DH read they’re back - maybe for the last time and wanted to see if they were as good as the first time - decades ago at the Riverboat McDonald’s in St. Louis. They’re not.
10/26 122.5 Went to brunch at Omelet House, ate 1 slice of sourdough and some fried potatoes as well as about 1/4 of my 6 egg Chile verde omelet.
10/27 123.0
10/28 123.0 I was 123.5 when I got up but after 6 cups of coffee and TMI x 2, I reweighed. That’s not something I usually do but I felt lighter.
10/29 123.5 Had pot roast and veg (no potatoes for me) for the first time in months. Not DH’s favorite-he tolerates it on occasion because I like it. ❤️ Doctor wasn’t happy with my BP, med asst said “those cuffs aren’t very accurate” before she even checked my BP which is ALWAYS up in office however, I showed her that it was within a couple of points of their machine and my BP is good when not there. He said I had only taken the one med for “a couple of days” but I had taken it for about 2 YEARS (he initiated it) when I realized it was the cause of my vertigo. Added another med which I wasn’t able to pick up when I was headed home from errands in the afternoon. Sorry for the rant - not checking BP now!!!
10/30 123.0 Took new BP med last night. Not excited about possible side effects especially since the pharmacist said because I had a previous allergic reaction to a CCB I need to watch for it. Plus “peripheral swelling” is on the list.Sorry for another rant. This whole thing is making my BP go up!!!!3 -

Pitch-in lunch yesterday with my creative group. I did skip dinner, but also ate well at lunch and some of it was salty. Mostly healthy, though, so that was good. I think a lot of this is H2O. On track today.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/24: 134.5 - another travel day, but arrived home to weigh. Not sure how accurate it was since it was later in the day.
10/25: 134.5 - Today begins recovery from 2.5 weeks of vacation where I really didn’t count any calories and probably ate my weight in carbs, desserts, fried foods, etc. Got some good exercise in, but there were too many rest days or travel days that made exercising hard.
10/26: 132.3 - Super surprised. I got a lot of exercise/move points in, but had a full-on carb binge in the evening.
10/27: 132.5 - Back to my routines…
10/28: 132.5 - Same ‘ol, same ‘ol…
10/29: 134.9 - Yikes! Did not exercise nor did I drink much water. Carb city as well…
10/30: 134.9 - Better with exercise, eating and water.
