I missed round 242. First round I have missed since Jan 1 2023. Disappointing, but I just could not get myself together for it. Looking forward to 243. I am needing it!!7

RND 243
HW 100kg
SW - Not weighed yet - will weight tomorrow.
RGW - None
UGW - 70 kg/ 154.3 lbs
Some details about me:
I am 26M, 5'7" - a software engineer with a sedentary lifestyle.
This my second round. Failed the last round terribly due to different priorities as well as setting very high expectations. Also, gained around 3 kgs owing to terrible sleeping schedule and a lot of unhealthy meals. I was too much occupied with some renovation work that was going on. Had a realization today that nothing is bigger than my health so I need to get some healthy counterbalance on my health front.
My goals for the round:
Sleep on time
- Start my sleep routine after 11 PM
- Sleep by 1AM
Follow a simple diet
- Morning - Peanut butter and fruit salad
- Lunch - Paneer wrap + salad + curd
- Evening - A bowl of fruits
- Dinner - Namak parantha with curd + salad + 1 scoop protein shake
- Have a peanut butter sandwich in case of late night hunger
- Limit Coffee Intake
- No coffee after 6PM
- Max 2 coffees per day
Let's see how this round goes.

I'm back after a seemingly long hiatus. I've allowed myself to grieve properly and then travel for Thanksgiving. We are home for the foreseeable future and it's time to get right back to healthy habits and workouts.
I did manage to run 2 days while on vacation - they weren't very long, but we were in the mountains and those hills were far more than I was used to. We've decided on doing the Shiner Beer Run next year and my goal is to attempt the 10k - my first ever attempt at running one. We shall see if I follow through once registration opens again (:
You don't have to be perfect, you just have to be better than you were before

Me too. Think you hit the nail on the head. I set such a high expectation for myself that when I wasn’t able to attain it I was so disheartened. Still here for another round though

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

I'm here for my 5th round. I had hoped to make it to the 170s last round, but didn't quite get there. This 10 days should do the trick!
I'm 51 years old. I have a dance performance and a cruise coming up in December and a wedding the beginning of January and would (I've had to adjust my goal here, as I won't make my original goal from the first time I did this challenge, and that's okay!) like to lose 3 more pounds before then. I'm hoping 2 more rounds of Just Give Me Ten will help motivate me and help me reach my goal.

Hi! I'd like to join in this round. I've found a bunch of motivation following along the threads, so I thought I'd try joining in. I may not post/weigh daily, we'll see how this goes!
I regularly do strength training, but my steps could use improvements.

Thank you @quiltingjaine
I’m in for this round. 👍3 -
Jen; 46; 5'4"
About Me:This is my fifteenth round and really appreciate having someplace to stay accountable.
Thanks to a medication I'm on for my mental health and an overeating habit, I managed to gain a lot of weight in the last year or so. On July 4, I stepped on the scale for the first time since I started the med (that is known to cause weight gain) and decided enough was enough. I buckled down and started actually recording my food for the first time in over five years and started walking every day. Now I need motivation to keep going. I'm a mom of five and grandma of one 4yo that I babysit during the week when my daughter is working. We live in the Pacific Northwest where we're entering the rainy season which makes walking a lot harder, and it's my main form of exercise right now. I do have access to gym equipment at our HOA clubhouse, but I still have to walk there and back (takes about 9 minutes). I recently started working full time (after over 23 years as a SAHM) so my time to exercise is now limited.

65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 243 (my 173rd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round, as always, so grateful.
Goals for this round to get into 137s, 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 (just over 4 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 target of 130 = 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.

11/28 Yesterday: ✅ 1100 cal & macros, 6.8k 🚶♀️, 78 min ex, 23 min 💓Z2, 🔥Total 619 cal. Opted out of an add’l walk cuz of fast. ✅ Calisthenics & stretching. Will 🏋️♀️today since fast is over.
Broke fast at 71 hrs.30 min. I wasn’t hungry it was more about wanting to eat dinner at 6:30 instead of 7PM. 😎 I’m usually finished eating by 6PM every night so I wanted to eat earlier for next IF. I learned from the fast that I can live through being “hungry” … It’s 💯 mind over body. One tough part was between 48 and 50 hours I got a mild headache. Ended up sleeping well. Fasting increased my will power - at least the perception 😎.
Onward!
Today: 🎾🚶♀️🏋️♀️💪🏻
#bestshapeofmylife 📣
Let’s GO! 💪🏻🙌🏻

Health Journey
1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs
UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)
In Aug 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 1/1/2015. Weight topped @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!
🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-137lbs. Three more solid years.
8/1/ 2022 crept up to 140lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 12/22.
2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. Started tracking. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are!
I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to reach 130lbs as a ceiling. Pretty clear to me that once I reached my 60s, I would reach a goal weight and then relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.
I also noticed that as I aged it became much MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could loose 15lbs easy in 6 to 8 weeks up to my 50s … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!

My second round! Feeling positive! I am focusing on a low-carb breakfast every day and a no carb lunch.
I lose weight quickly at the start of low-carb and then things slow down and motivation can start to drain. Hopefully I will start understanding the "lifestyle not a diet" phrase. Taking my "before" picture this afternoon. First snow due today/

11/28 - Well all the holiday overeating has caught up to me. Last round I did not meet any of my goals. This round will be different! Overall I still weigh less now than when I first started 2 rounds ago.
Part of the problem is access to off-plan food. I don't mind splurging for the holiday itself, but I have to learn to refuse the leftovers. It's too tempting to have them in the house. And when I have free access to sweets, I binge. Every time. But part of the process is learning these things. I need to do some research on how to defend against the binge!

I'm 30F and committed to wondering less about the scale and wondering instead about how great it's going to be when my daily healthy practices are so normal that it would be weird not to do them, even on vacations or holidays. It has been nice so far.

At one point in the last 6+ years there was someone who posted that they wanted to lose 15 pounds during the round.
I believe that setting expectations too high is the reason most of us “fail” but if we learn something from the round, I consider that a WIN.
