Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 241

musicsax

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 241 (my 171st). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to get into 138s solidly, hopefully lose a pound and keep heart rate under 50 beats a minute, then longer term goal to get back to 135 in time for Christmas (less than 7 weeks!).

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, it’s taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

11/07 139.2 – wouldn’t you just know that the last day the scale goes up!! Oh well it is what it is, had a good day yesterday; 13.6 miles walked yesterday, no exercise calories eaten back. Maybe I should include my trend weight (139.6) and see how that progresses. I feel that I am now solidly below 140, my resting heart rate has finally dropped to below 150 to 149 beats per minute & I do feel more in control (although when I’ve said this in the past then invariably that day I’ve started to self-sabotage, this time I intend to stand firm!!) I do feel I have met my goals for this round, roll on the new one!

11/8 138.6 – and back down! No structured walking yesterday as it was raining in the morning so I was unable to walk to my seasonal part-time job (exam. Invigilator at local school) and later met sisters for lunch, but made sensible choices, 200 calories over.
11/9 138.6 - 9 miles walked yesterday, all but 28 exercise calories eaten back - I was hungry all day!!

Develop a more reliable routine & a plan B. Calendar “me” in advance.

Also, I’m going to address the emotional 🎢 rollercoaster again by ⚖️ every-other day. Rationally, I know I’ll fluctuate but I need to find out if I was truly over it or just avoiding. Facing that fear.

Let’s GO! 💪🏻🙌🏻

Simply a no good, very bad, horrible day! 😂 Will travel again today, so not sure how much I can accomplish, but I’ll drink PLENTY 💧 and eat healthy. Will walk and ST🏋️‍♀️ before 9AM. Looking forward: Friday is scheduled to be a big movement/ stretch day! (On my ME calendar!) Going out with the girls this evening. I’ve already decided what I’ll enjoy - Ceviche and/or grilled shrimp. Rain ahead for wknd & all next week.

Round 241
Nov 8 – Nov 17, 2023

61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).

SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
GW Maintaining between 124 - 126

Continuing to figure out maintaining, and to work on best nutrition and exercise.

History:

Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, a DGS, and second GS on the way. We have three parents, 88(father), 86(mother), 84(MIL) still with us, and I have logically been needing to help them more as they age. I got my act in gear during COVID, somewhat inspired by NOT becoming my parents. I lost 30 lbs and was exercising daily. Unfortunately, I am an “all in or not” person. Hubby and I seeing our family home and downsizing distractions, plus medical incident with my father and all their new needs, became an excuse. A year and a half later, I gained 25 lbs and lost all my athletic improvements. I need to figure out balance and how to make health be a daily priority for life!

Day/Weight/Comment

11/8 – 127.8 Posted day one for round 241 on round 240. Hope that does not indicate how this round will be.

11/9 – 127.6 Sister and BIL fly in today with expectation of cleaning out my parents’ MA house. Yesterday, while not formally tracking, I paid fairly good attention to my food choices. While my sister is here, that might be as good as I can do. She might be here the whole round, but that is unclear. Goal for the round would be to be back under 126.

11/08 - 190.2
Ok, new round, and I’m really aiming to clean up my act. I know I’ve said that round after round and just haven’t gotten it together. I’m up 12 pounds from the beginning of the year when I wanted to go 20 pounds the other way. I am trying not to beat myself up over it, but I have to figure out why I’ve been self-sabotaging, not just in terms of weight but other things as well. I’ve never been like this. But I’m going to try really hard this round to get back to eating responsibly and writing every day. Really. Really really. (Anyone have any reading recommendations on self-sabotage?)

11/09 - 189.6
Right direction, if embarrassingly high. I’m off in a few minutes to pick up ingredients for a big pot of vegetable soup so I can freeze “soup muffins” for low-cal lunches. DH is making fettuccine with clam sauce tonight, so I’m having a salad for lunch. It’s gorgeous out, so I see a nice long walk in my day. Oh, and I knitted Charlie a sweater. 😊

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.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

"Do or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

SW RND 241 128.0
11/8 128.0 Edit - we went to Walmart around 8AM. Mail appt in the PM, HOA Board of Directors meeting in the evening.
11/9 128.5 DH was elected president of the board. This is going to be a rough year. After at least a year of “us vs them” his goal is to turn it back into the friendly community it was a couple of years ago and to rein in the crazy spending of the past board, most recently $18K for 12 chairs! All hugs and prayers are appreciated.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/07 …..183.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

11/08 -182.6- (Trend weight 184.1) I find it so interesting, amazing even, all the different approaches to weight loss in these challenges. A food that one will not touch another wants more of in their diet. Some calorie intakes are double what others are eating and still they lose weight at a steady and safe rate. Truly there is more than way to conquer. Many of us have health issues that lead to certain diets etc. It seems key that we have to self-reflect. Whatever got us into this mess (carbs or calories or lack of fruits/veggies, or lack of exercise), this is what we must reverse to reverse the damage it has caused. Each one of our stories are as different as our approaches. All paths are right. I just want each and every one of you to know how much I appreciate you for how you open your homes, your families, your struggles, your achievements, your research, your medical histories, your lives with the the rest of us. You are helping so many and making such a tremendous difference, not just in your own lives, but in the lives of the rest of us too. Thank you for that. Truly, thank you. Good luck this round everyone!

11/09 -183.2- (Trend weight 184.0) Gosh I was so hungry all day yesterday and last night (very late, 2:00 AM) it hit me hard. I tried a handful of nuts but this time it didn’t help. I finally broke down and made a turkey sandwich on “diet” low carb/calorie bread without the mayo and that took care of it but caused me to eat back some of my exercise calories which I try not to do. Early weigh-in this morning so it showed up on the scale. I am traveling for an overnight on Friday/Saturday down to Kalamazoo Michigan for a Lewis Black comedy show with my oldest daughter. There will be lots of travel & show sitting, hotel and restaurant foods and no real chance to exercise. I will post Friday morn before I go and again on Saturday night when I return. I will not have weights for Sat and may skip it on Sun too for a buffer day. Thank you so much to all that sent condolences on the loss of my beautiful cat Harriet. I found comfort in your words and thoughtful insights.

🍁🏈10 more days of my life🏈🍁

My goal for this go around is to find the number on the scale to be smaller than today’s number. Hoping for the 137’s. I have several birthday events this go around, including my own, so this may take some creativity! Will continue to keep my steps 👣 above 10,000, guzzle the 💧water, log my ✏️ food, and hit the gym at least 3 times a week. No munching 🚫 after 8:00 pm and limit my alcohol 🍷 intake. Come on people! Let’s do this!!!

11/8: 138.3

11/9: 139.8. Not too happy about this, but I know I did everything right yesterday. I ate well, stayed within my calorie goal, went for a morning walk and a run at night. So I'm just going to chalk it up to daily fluctuations. I was slightly higher on carbs yesterday and I'm a bit sore from increasing my runs recently, so it's likely I'm retaining some extra water.

Day, Weight, Comment
11/08 - 155.5
11/09 - 154.8 - Better. I was well behaved yesterday. I drank all my water, started my lunch off with a soup and didn't overeat, despite being out. Dinner was light, though no veggies (just potatoes so not a total loss). Thankfully my lunch had some. Tonight is steak bites as the grill broke while cooking last night (it's old and the weld failed) and its raining so want to keep it indoors. Lunch will be the last of the Birdseye Voila frozen meal (chicken stir fry). Breakfast was an open-faced sandwich of lemon pepper salmon with scrambled egg on whole wheat toast. No walk due to rain today (and walking pad still scheduled for Monday - it's supposed to be raining Monday as well, boo) but I did do a strength workout and pedaled on the bike for 15 minutes. I've only run as much as 25 minutes/2 miles in one go in preparation for this 5k so I'm a tad worried about adding the extra 12-14minutes/1 mile to it without extra training. Hopefully it won't be too awful.

Previous Day's Comments

11/08 - I had a self-sabotage night. BF made homemade guac and he brought out chips so I splurged on chips & guac while making dinner. Then he asked if I'd like to help him finish off the last of the ice cream and I said yes without thinking. I took m lactose pills but I was 750 (estimated) calories over goal for the day and lactose pills don't help with water retention from salt. Plus, it was too dark to take the dogs for a walk after dinner so I didn't get my step goal, either. Better today - no Wet Wednesday as there's a conflict so we're having chicken quarters for dinner with whatever sides we have at home (frozen or canned veggies included. Better than no veg!). Leftover chicken stir fry for lunch and breakfast was a fruit&protein smoothie with chia, flax, and greek yogurt. I only managed half of it. I ran 20 minutes this morning as well, since the 5k is in 10 days and I took a week and a half off of running between travel and weather! That 20 minutes was terribly challenging so I'm hoping that my efforts this week into early next will be enough to get me through to completing the 5k without stopping (even if I don't PR or even get close to June's PR. Circumstances have changed a lot)

Goals:
1. Track food every day
2. Walk at least 20 minutes 3 times
3. At least 3 "workouts". In quotes because I am starting with lower intensity physical therapy work and stretching that my body really needs right now.

It will be very exciting to get into the 170s. I see a few of us that are hoping for that milestone this round.
