    Day/Weight/Comment"
    2/1: 165.2 Tested positive for Covid last night. Not expecting too much movement in the next few days, but my fridge is ready for easy to grab veggie most options so I think I will be okay with diet. I realize I am not missing booze as much as I was in the beginning of this, I don't even really think about unwinding with a glass of wine or beer most days anymore. I still think of it some days, but must less frequently. The weird thing Is I don't feel much different without it. I thought I would feel more hydrated and energized and I don't. Then again, I am sick so there is that. I need to make sure I keep up with my water. I have a routine when I am working--12 oz on my way to work, 24 oz during work, 12 oz on my way home, 24 oz from coming home to bed time. Being home messes up my routine and water also makes me cold, which isn't desirable when I have the chills. But I will do my best.

    2/2: 165.4 I ended up being a few oz sort of water and I had a cocktail after dinner. I had a some nervous energy due to some upcoming life changes that is both joyful and overwhelming at the same time. Listing the to do list and the time line had feeling a bit anxious and so I poured myself a small drink.

    2/3: 162.8 My covid symptoms are much better, but the breathing and coughing still lingers. I think I might have to sit out at least one more day of movement, but I will see how I feel later today. I am actually shocked by my weight. I don't think it is lingering this low at this point, most of my eating happened before 4 pm and I wasn't hungry for dinner so it might be mostly just an empty stomach and low water weigh in. I got a new tape measure yesterday so I will probably take measurements today.

    2/4: 164.0 A bit too much Friday indulging last night. Feeling it today. I am appreciating my dry days more now that I am feeling the day after effects of a not dry night last night. And it really wasn't even worth it. Just a hanging around watching movies with my partner night. Booze wasn't needed but it was there so I had some.

    2/5: 165.0 Back to work tomorrow. Still have a bit of a cough and covid test is still coming up positive, so I will need to wear a mask. I was hoping to try and get back to the gym, but with the cough and mask requirement I will have to skip it again. Maybe I will feel up to doing some time on my home rower tomorrow instead.

    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 213 (my 145th). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal for this round; I'm not looking at a specific number, instead I need to aim to cut out chocolate & biscuits 'cuz I can't stop at 1 or even 2, it starts me on a downward addictive spiral. So that and any loss is my aim. No binges, keep within calories & macros.
    Spoiler

    1/ 31 139.8 – Damn!! Why do I binge!!? I need to think before I mindlessly shovel things into my mouth!! A 2 pound gain through the round, must get control of this food addiction I have. 9.92 miles walked.

    SW 138.6
    2/1 138.6 - 9.91 miles walked, a much better day & under control! 5% of exercise calories eaten back.
    2/2 138 – 11.04 miles walked, half of exercise calories eaten back.
    2/3 138.4 – childminding DGS; no structured walking.
    2/4 139.8 – don't ask!!:( 9.68 miles walked, but that was not enough to negate the massive amount of food I binged on :(. I'm such a stupid greedy pig!! Today is Saturday, it will be good to spend my walking together with DH.
    2/5 139.4 - 11.86 miles walked, & back in control, all but 197 of exercise calories eaten back. Saturday for us is pizza night together with a massive delicious crunchy salad, we also have oven roasted chips, I normally have just 100 calories worth, but last week I realised that I am not that bothered about the taste so this week didn't have any and to TBH didn't miss them. More importantly no chocolate/biscuits. Thank you for your kind words, I'm over yesterday’s rant at myself now.
    2/6 139.4 – no structured walking, DS & family came down for a roast lunch & then we all went to a wider family get together; 27 of us, all my DSs & their children & grandchildren. We try to do this a couple of times a year, not all of us manage it as to get a date that all of us can make is near impossible!!

    2/06 - 163.2 - Yesterday was a struggle. The pup had the pukes approximately 4-7am. Then I finally got to fall asleep on the couch only for BF's alarm to go off. I'm still exhausted haha! I'm also so sore from all the heavy lifting this weekend that I can't move a single muscle without cringing in soreness pain. I made the decision to forego my workout this morning. Thinking about it, 2 full days of moving a house is like 2 full days of strength training/lifting weights. And I did a workout Thursday and Friday. My body needs a rest day somewhere! I might skip tomorrow's, too. Just do yoga tomorrow and Wednesday (my scheduled rest day) and resume workouts on Thursday/Friday. They're all moved in so no more heavy lifting that I know of on weekends. One thing I will say: I'm proud of myself for logically thinking about it and not just saying "its Monday, I'm tired, no workout" like I would have previously. I hit snooze on my alarm and used that time to really think things through before making the decision and getting up (I almost went ahead and slept in if it wasn't for the pups realizing I was awake and getting a little crazy).

    Previous Day's Comments
    2/01 - I'm happy with that tiny little drop. I cut it really close on calories yesterday and was honestly worried I'd be up again. Today will be another day which staying in calories will bring a challenge. I've already eaten breakfast since dinner was suuuuuper early and I was beginning to feel nauseous. Yoga this morning, just 15 minute easy morning wakeup practice. Will need to really pay attention to my watch's reminders to get up and move. And then move extra today. Not only to keep warm, but to give myself a little wiggle room in calorie department. Will see if BF wants to make chicken noodle or chicken and dumplings tonight for something cozy.
    2/02 - Well, if I keep losing 0.1 at a time, I'll barely miss my goal of 161.x but I'll be a pound lighter than last round's end weight which isn't a bad thing nor would I be upset. Big splurge dinner of chicken and dumplings served in homemade bread bowls. I'm super proud of yet another bread-baking related accomplishment (why must it be on my "only eat sometimes" list again? I love baking it). No clue lunch, as usual or dinner except that I'm in charge, eek. The pup woke me up with his coyote-sounding yawn and was doing a peepee dance at 4am so I'm up an hour earlier than my alarm. In a bit I'm going to start my bodyweight workout and, because of the early start, I can have a small break before the cardio sprinter portion, yippee. I'm not sure how I feel other than I AM looking forward to this being over haha
    2/03 - I wasn't expecting that woosh at all! I made homemade beef and cabbage pan fried wontons last night. They weren't that great, but I think part of that is because it was ground beef. I had pork, but unfortunately it went bad before I could make it. Plus seasonings were off and not enough. I have leftover filling and wonton wrappers for lunch today. Got my workout in despite not wanting to get up at all. Woke up mid-dream and that always messes with me. Then BigBro's car wouldn't start, my car was frozen over entirely, and so I had to take him to school. Good thing because in spots where water pools, it was all icy. I almost couldn't make it up the hill home because the water pooled at the bottom left water tracks up the hill which froze. Thankfully I had 4WD and some umph to get me far enough up to get in the grass and get traction. Late start to work and to everything else. Setting up my grocery pickup to be about the same time I pick up BigBro from school so I can knock two things out in one trip since today is grocery day anyway.
    2/04 - I was rushing for a puppy that really had to go outside ASAP so I skipped weighing. Probably good for my mental state as I indulged in a little wine last night and that never helps the scale in the morning. Today is an alcohol free day, though. Back to help Fam move the remainder of their stuff into the new house and help get things ready for a garage sale tomorrow. Should be plenty of movement today, will just have to be careful of my food choices. Hope you're all having a good weekend. Will try to check in tomorrow as well, time permitting. Also hoping for a weigh in tomorrow to see where I stand so I can adjust and not have a huge weekend gain.

    @39flavours I need to get my happy *kitten* out of the chair and do something. I’ve been to the gym once since the pandemic started. People were still supposed be masked. I was the only one who was, other than employees and none of them said anything to the unmasked. I felt unsafe and had only a short workout. I have a bad back and hold 17# great grandson while standing is an issue.
