Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 253

quiltingjaine

Round 253
March 7 - 16, 2024

Please join us starting on 3/7 for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 253.

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. You have only one hour to edit your post. 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.

If you feel your post is too lengthy, you can add spoilers to temporarily hide the information. It is readily available by tapping the SPOILER bar. To create a Spoiler just type or copy [ Spoiler ] xxx [ /Spoiler ] Omit the spaces within the brackets and put your information where I have xxx

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE

Many thanks @quiltingjaine .

I am trying to set a proper goal for drinking water. I know I don't drink enough. I have heard the adage about 8 glasses per day (64 oz?) . Anyone want to chime in on what you use for your goal and what benefits you actually experience?

mightybunky

First try on this. F, 48, have come and gone from MFP a few times and now bigger than I've ever been - currently UK size 14/16 and hoping to get back into my size 12 shorts for summer. Ultimate goal is 147lb, as of today I am 166.1. Thank you @quiltingjaine for setting this up, looking forward to seeing how we all do these 10 days!

Spent last round on vacation and only gained half a pound, so that's a win! Now it's time to get serious and lose some weight before my son's wedding at the end of April.

I wasn’t a water drinker until I did WW back in the day. They said 8 - 8 oz glasses. Now I drink 3 or 4 - 30 oz glasses if I’m home. More in the summer but remember, I live in the desert. Start with 8 glasses and if you’re thirsty add another.

I love seeing newbies! Has anyone heard from @TerriRichardson112?

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

• This is what I wrote out at the beginning of Round 250: [/b]
  ~ My plan for round 250 is to eliminate drinking alcohol on a nightly basis. [color] Still killing this one! [/color]
  ~ Try to get more into old school Keto, and for one meal a day I’ll allow myself to have a Keto processed food item. ie. Keto hot dog buns, keto slimfast snacks, I’ll pick one meal to eat these items.
  I don’t really realize how much I’ve come to rely on these items. <<< Plan on watching old keto YouTuber videos for mental refreshments! Requesting everyone’s recommendations for this-please? THANK YOU! 😊 >>>

~ Finished the last 3 days of round 252 strong! No “buts”. It’s worthy to note that I usually add a “But, I couldn’t…” or “But I didn’t hit my mini-goal…” 
~ So here’s to NO BUTS this round!! Lol

    ~ Finished the last day of round 251 strong but I caved a bit at the end of the day when my husband was craving New York style pizza. I had 2 large cheese slices, Bruschetta Napolitana and 3 butter laden garlic knots.. oh and one of my favorite things in this world: A cannoli! Ugh ! I’m feeling the discomfort as we speak
    ~ I was too nervous to look and see what the carb/calorie count actually was..

      ~ I’m really proud of myself for achieving the mini-goal I set of weighing less than 177 lbs.
      ~ I broke through a bunch of mental blocks and had a bunch of “a-HAA!!” moments this round. I started competing on Stride kick again (PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO JOIN ME)
      ~ I remembered that I never felt better than when I was losing weight on the original Keto plan so I went back to basics. This realization prompted me to stop using all substances as a crutch. So I’m feeling very empowered and excited for this next round!
