    @itladyee Enjoy your time here in Vegas. I understand the Strip is something of a mess though, due to the recent and upcoming Formula 1 races. It’s supposed to be a bit cooler with highs in the upper 50s.

    βš–οΈ 131.0 is real. Sure hope it’s added muscle? Zero 🚫 day. Did it even happen? Did not accomplish anything except sat in car dealership for hrs. Fasted until 3 PM then opted for eggs. Light dinner but loaded with rat poison. Feel like a deadbeat loafer. Sabotage much?!?!?!! Sure wish I would have repeated yesterday’s daily affirmation… Why did I forget?! Good πŸ’¦. InBody @ 10am. Will post tomorrow.

    Yesterday: Early 🎾fun - some πŸ’—Z2. Had to force myself to πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈafter… I always come up with so many excuses… Of course, I felt terrific when I checked-off that commitment. Short on steps so walked again in afternoon. Had πŸ₯© for lunch and chuck burger for dinner (No bread). (Much more than I usually eat - hungry from extended workout.)

    Today: ?πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ€ΈπŸΌπŸŽΎ Holiday dinner tonight with friends. Thinking about a water/black coffee fast starting tonight leading up to InBody 12/30 @9AM. Really want to get back to ketosis. Researched: one 24 hr fast per wk. Then one 48 or 72hr fast every three months ... no more than that. Seems radical but based on solid science. Thinking on it.

    12/29. *** The positive energy from choosing discipline, embracing my plan & respecting the goals that I claimed for myself (yes me & no one else) is FAR FAR better than a fleeting, momentary tastebud party or β€œhigh” derived from rat poison carbs or piddling and waisting the entire day. *** repeating this to myself over & over because I had to coerce myself to walk yesterday … Why?!

    Today: πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈ? I may not get to exercise today, because I have to deal with car troubles again… water/coffee fast until InBody tomorrow 9AM.

    Health Journey
    ****************

    1990 (Age 32) - Avg. 135 lbs
    2001 (Age 43) - Avg 145 lbs
    2010 (Age 52) HW 172 lbs

    UGW = 130lbs (ceiling)

    Aug 14, 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 remained @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Five years!

    🎒 Roller Coaster Begins….

    2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140 lbs.

    8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
    Dropped to 128lbs again by 9/30 then held 130lbs till 1/1/23.

    2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much! Ive always eaten somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was a huge issue. Started tracking 7/15. Joined β€œJust give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130 determined to…. be in the
    πŸ“£#bestshapeofmylife πŸ“£

    I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎒 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to maintain 130lbs as a ceiling. Pretty clear to me that once I reached a goal weight I would then relax/ drift backwards. So glad 145lbs was the max over the last nine years.

    I also noticed that as I age it becomes much MUCH more difficult to lose weight. I could loose 15lbs easy in 8 weeks up to 2020ish … This is absolutely not true anymore!!!!
