Round one for me
Starting weight 12.0 st
current weight is 11.6 st
Goal weight is 10.0 st
I’m 5’5”. I’m going to try intermittent fasting 12/12 split, I’ve started the challenge today. 🤞.
Round 1
* Day 1 - 24/624- 11.8 st. So far good. Everything logged. 45 mins Pilates. 11,357 steps 💃. Fasting started 6 mins ago 7pm. So I’m really hoping I can stay away from late night snacks, one of my many downfalls.
Yay managed to not eat after 7pm!! That is a huge psychological break through for me. If I can do that on one night, I can do it again tonight - one day at a time. 👍🏼
* Day 2 - 25/6/24 - 11.7 st. Yay I managed not to snack last night! This is a huge psychological leap for me. Positive message to self - if I can go without a snack last night I can do without one tonight 💭 .
* Day 3 - 26/6/24 - 11.6 st. I can’t believe it, another pound gone. I started the fast late last night 8pm due to hubby being late back from work. So I have a late breakfast today to maintain the 12 hour fasting. Steps were under 10,000 yesterday- 9,652. But this better than the week before, so my back and hip are improving 😊. All food logged and under my calorie allowance 💪7 -

NSVs/Journey Reflections…. 👇🏻
********************************
👇🏻Review since my first R231
1. ✅Avg. close to 10k steps per day for 8+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅Healthy Habit: 🙆♀️ I stretch daily and that has greatly improved my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅HH: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
4. ✅HH: Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
5. ✅HH: zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
6. ✅Clean P:E 115-130g Protein (this is new)
7. ✅HH Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM.
8. ✅💦80oz daily
9. ✅Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
10. 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
Tremendous progress since last July, but still “skinny-fat”. I want 🏋️♀️to become a healthy habit too. … 🏋️♀️20 min per day or 30 min 3-4x per week. Continue to journal📝 and to strive to ID unhelpful habits & replace with helpful ones.
Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
Rotating 115g to 130g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !
Let’s do R264!!🙌🏻

Solid day. Slept yucky. Not enough water. So darn hot yesterday… need more 💦 today- even tho 80oz feeling dehydrated….
Really want to sleep better /feeling cortisol levels still high.
This week DGS coming over after soccer camp each day for an hour or so…. He is my “why” - #HSF Focus on balance, mobility & functional training.

Up too early but slept like a rock for 5 hrs. Tried to go back to sleep but couldn’t. Will make lemonade.
P:E going well. Hitting macro “ratios” is an interesting experiment. Will continue thru this round then assess.
Solid 🏋️♀️ yesterday. Feeling it. (Good!) Still pushing myself to “DO IT” cuz it certainly is not a habit yet! Typical summer heat here. Today might me a rest day. Will see how I feel when the rest of the world wakes up. 😃.
Oh, the scale? More 💦💦💦 than usual and kept my routine. My body adores routine! I “surged” two days 6/24 & 6/25 and after reviewing my 6 mo stats, 130-131 is “my zone”. (What else am I going to do at 4a.m.?) Anything out of that range is a “systems fluctuation”. Still striving to build functional strength, agility & balance.
Let’s strive today! #HSF #helpfulhabits

6/25 173.4 I have to admit this time is the hardest time I’ve ever had losing weight. I’ve been at this since March 2 and have yet to see that 20 lb. loss which I thought I’d have had weeks ago. The thing is, I’ve been pretty consistent with food intake and getting in more protein and lower carbs than I was used to. I’ve exercised more, but not in the extreme. I have not done well with water although I don’t drink calories either so I get a fair amount each day. Here’s to another round for all of us. Good luck, everyone!

@Chapter_3 Thanks for the encouragement. Our bodies definitely DO change as we age--no doubt about that. I'm just going to keep on keeping on and see if I can figure out what will work better than what I'm doing now. Fingers crossed!3

Hi everyone! I’m 34 years old and 164 cm (5’ 4,5”). I have a very sedentary life, since I am a PhD researcher. I work mostly from home or sometimes I go to a cafe. Sometimes I go to the gym 2-3 times in a week, but sometimes I don’t go for weeks. I don’t have a routine. I’ve been overweight since I was 18 and every year I gained more and more. In the last 1,5 years I have been between 103-105 kg (227-231 lbs). My ultimate goal weight 70 kg (154 lbs), but firstly I want to go below 103 kg which I stuck for 1,5 years. Then I hope go below 100 kg (220 lbs).
I started on 20 June, it’s still early days so being consistent is very important throughout this challenge. I aim to take 1600 calories a day and reach my macro goals. I am not crazy strict, but I don’t wanna be too loose and off the track either.
SW: 105 kg (20 June)
UGW: 70 kg
RSW: 104.4 kg
RGW: 102.9 kg
6/25 - 104.4 kg
6/26 - 104.1 kg
I ate below my calorie goal and was close to my macro goals. Some days will be more than my calorie goal, so once or twice a week I need this lower calorie days. I am happy about yesterday and today’s weight 😊

This roller coaster of my life that I was shoved onto 2 years ago continues to careen and somehow speed up! I have every intention of fully participating in this round, thank goodness no traveling for next 10 days. But to just add jet fuel to my chaos, my neighbor offered to buy my house last weekend and I said yes. So now 2 months to move. Eeeks!!! Looking forward to starting my next chapter in my life and getting off this current ride. Losing these last few pounds, which seems be the only thing I cannot lose seems like a great place to start. I need to weigh myself, weigh my food, track my food and participate on this blog. These goals have worked magic for me before. Look forward to reading all of your postings...
6/25: 122.2 Down a pound from last week - been waiting for this challenge to start. Also I am going to not drink on weekdays, lucky I am planning to play pickleball this evening, such a calorie burner.
6/26: 121.6💥 Weighed myself 💥 weighed my food💥, tracked my food💥 and posting💥 Yeah! Played pickleball last night 2 hours, great workout and reliever of stress.I guess once the inspection is done I will know for sure sale is going thru or not and that should relieve some stress and then add some more as I then put move plan in to action.

Just saw this…. Many don’t realize that refined sugar is a poisonous, addictive drug. Seriously. I know my body is highly addicted and I didn’t launch into any momentum until I removed it from my house. Almost every packaged/processed food has it. The post accompanied with this meme challenged the reader to remove all sugar for THREE days (read labels) and you’ll feel an immediate improvement. The addiction will be conquered. FWIW

CW: 125ish
I’m a serial dieter/gainer whose weight has varied by 50 lbs over the years; I’m working to change my relationship with food. I joined this group in 12/23 at 147, lost 22 lbs and reached my goal in 4/24. I’m now working to understand my patterns so I know where my pitfalls are. My goal is to remain within the same 3-4 lb range for good.
We’re on vacation for this entire round, which is usually the start of my “yoyo” upswing. Goal is to eat well, enjoy food and maintain my weight even when breaking from my daily routine.

6/26: every morning I'm tempted to "skip the scale" and I don't, and so far I've been pleasantly surprised to see that my weight is stable. We're at our favorite inn and the weather here is spectacular. No "real" exercise yesterday. Great seafood dinner overlooking the harbor; sangria with soda instead of frozen daiquiri, and no dessert! There WILL be ice cream this week- and restaurant desserts too, so I don't expect this weight to hold indefinitely, but i am paying attention, and that's the goal!
Oh, and a gull "got us" on the ferry ride- literally! They say it's good luck, but it was gross!

@Chapter_3: GREAT POST!! I TOTALLY agree with you! My "mantra" has been to eliminate the insidious sugar that's in our food, everywhere! It's a challenge to truly get rid of it and means really paying attention to ingredients- I pointed out to my SIL that it's in the "multigrain bread" that she buys, sweetened yogurts, most cereals (including those supposedly healthy "high fiber" ones). It's in "Pretzel Crisps", for goodness sakes! It's not the desserts that'll get us, it's the processed food:
I highly recommend trying to get it out of your system because it's changed my entire body- the many joint pains are diminished, my diverticulosis is significantly healed, and- best of all for me- the food cravings stopped.

Have fun on your vacay!!!!

@tiabirdie56 @Chapter_3 I'm curious which type of Magnesium helps you sleep. There are so many types. I keep Magnesium Oxide in the house to help loosen things up when I haven't been able to TMI. It would be wonderful to have a Magnesium that could improve my sleep without having bathroom issues, specifically D2 -

6/25-173- Off to volunteer at Quilts of Honor, layering quilts. Will bring a salad so I won’t eat a sandwich. Tonight should be cool enough to walk.
@AR10at50 I had never heard of Quilts of Honor. I googled it. What a wonderful organization and so nice that you volunteer. It must feel so good to be part of honoring those that serve. The quilts are beautiful, too. I hope you don't mind me pasting from their website below if anyone else is interested. I bolded some of their very heartfelt and touching responses.
Gail Belmont is the founder and member of Quilts of Honor.
We hope you will join us to honor members of our active military and veterans by showing them how much we appreciate their sacrifice and service. Our hope is that these quilts will provide comfort, love and healing to those who have given so much.
As a Vietnam veteran and founding member of Quilts of Honor America, I am honored for the opportunity to support our warriors and veterans....
Cpl. George A. Burrows, USMC 1968-1969, wrote me with these words, “Thank You for the Quilt, it’s beautiful. It’s something I will not only use but will pass down to my grandson with the story of how I got it. What you people are doing means more than you could know to people like me. When I came home from Nam [Vietnam] we were not honored. This Quilt is MY WELCOME HOME!”
His letter is a resounding sentiment that I have heard countless times. It is these words and other similar sentiments that have been our inspirations in forming and growing Quilts of Honor America.
Quilts of Honor are made by loving hands of volunteers who wish to present high-quality, handmade, and long-armed quilts as a token of honor in appreciation to our warriors and veterans. Our mission is to bestow a universal symbol and token of thanks, solace, and remembrance to those who serve, past and present, in harm's way to protect and defend our lives and freedoms. We exist to organize volunteers, who create patriotic quilts to be awarded to those who have willingly chosen to commit their lives to our country's safety and protection.
The stories and words of wisdom and gratitude from those we are lucky enough to honor touch our hearts and change our lives. It is their sentiments that encourage us to continue our mission. To know that we have touched the heart of one veteran or encouraged the morale of one warrior is an honor in and of itself. One such letter was sent to us from a particular marine that served in the 1/8th Marines. His letter came after we awarded 20 quilts to the surviving and active duty members of the 1/8th Marines. This unit lost a total of 30 men during Operation Enduring Freedom and many of the surviving men were suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. He stated that upon receipt of our quilt he was overwhelmed with the same joy he experienced with the birth of his son. The honor of knowing we had cared enough to send him a token of our gratitude for his service had touched him so mightily he had wept.
More recently we received an e-mail from the mother of another Marine, this particular Marine is part of the 3/8 Marines (most of whom are between the ages of 18 and 19). The e-mail was entitled, "Long Overdue", and proceeded to explain that 2 years ago her son had received a quilt from QOH. Since that time, she had continued to follow our program onlineand in the newspapers, and she had finally decided to write with her sincerest thanks for our gift to her son. She told us how touched her son had been by our gift and that upon return of each tour or rest he would go to the bedroom where she kept his quilt and hold it in his arms for a while. She said that recently he had been deployed to Afghanistan and had asked her to watch over his quilt, and now she is the one who finds comfort in the quilt. Each time she experiences a day where she misses him unbearably, she goes to the bedroom and takes the quilt into her arms and holds it to feel closer to her son.
Each letter we receive and story we hear has encouraged us to continue furthering our growth and provide a morale boost for our troops and continued honor and healing to our veterans. We hope and pray that more people feel called to be involved in the creation and distribution of the quilts to those who deserve them most as they support and defend our freedom.
@fmfdfa2020 What a beautiful post this is! Thanks so much for sharing.1 -
Hello everyone!
I'm new to the community and am happy to find a place where I can have some accountability partners. Thank you for hosting this space, quiltingjaine!
I'm a 56-year-old female. I love to exercise, but I also love to eat. When I log ALL my food, I keep my intake lower, but I often get bogged down in the scurry of life in the afternoons and evenings. This 10-day challenge seems like a great place for me to get my logging groove back.
I'll post the following: date - weight - whether I tracked all meals - whether I stayed within my calorie goal.

@suwaligi Welcome to the group. I am so happy you could join us. I hope you will love this group as much as I do. The folks are wonderful and helpful!

Going to be back next round when I feel I can be around more- we have been traveling a lot this month, and are traveling again next week for the 4th. I'm feeling terrible though, with the way I've eaten lately. So trying to get back on track with that, at least while I'm at home. We had to rehome our family pet also so I'm dealing with some depression from that, knowing I'll probably never see her again. She was also my walking buddy- so I'll probably find a new place to walk for a while when I start walking again. Good luck to you all, and I really have missed reading your stories and success 💕
@Sweetzyd I am so sorry to hear that you had to rehome your beloved pet. I am sure this is heartbreaking for you both. However, in finding a loving home for her you have done the best you could do in your circumstances. What a loving pet mother you have been! I hope you will find comfort in that.
Stay safe in your travels. We look forward to your return.2 -

Day/Weight/Comment
06/24 …..187.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/25 -187.8- (Trend weight 185.8) Darn it!
06/26 -186.4- (Trend weight 186.1) Much better! I didn’t struggle too much with the snacking last night due to some leftover chili during my very late dinner. Plenty of protein in that chili which made it much easier to meet my protein goal—something I struggle with. I’ve been trying to fit in a protein shake here and there but sometimes it just doesn’t fit into my macros, calorie or carb allowance like I need it to. Still juggling things to make it work.

@deepwoodslady, magnesium glycinate, more absorbable than glycine, helps with sleep. Also, I've read that magnesium helps in absorption and metabolism of Vit D so they should be taken together.
There is an excellent video on the different forms of magnesium and their benefits. I'll track it down and post it.

Just saw this…. Many don’t realize that refined sugar is a poisonous, addictive drug. Seriously. I know my body is highly addicted and I didn’t launch into any momentum until I removed it from my house. Almost every packaged/processed food has it. The post accompanied with this meme challenged the reader to remove all sugar for THREE days (read labels) and you’ll feel an immediate improvement. The addiction will be conquered. FWIW
I suggest reading The Case Against Sugar by Gary Taubes, too. I got it from the library

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

6/25 134.5 🤷♀️ I think I’m stressed about dental work tomorrow. Didn’t sleep well last night.
6/26 134.5 Had Mexican yesterday but only ate a handful of chips and half of my chimichanga. I have developed a serious case of nerves about today’s dental appointment. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.9 -

6/26 - 147.9 - I'm up a tad but I'm feeling leaner and looking a bit leaner in the mirror so I'll take it. I was slightly above macros (about 12g over carbs so 2g over my buffer window) but that was aimed at reaching my fiber goal due to missing my snack (work meeting ran from lunch to dinner with no chance to grab my snack so I had to improvise an after dinner snack). I didn't meet my step goal, either. Today I am focused on getting both in today. BF's shoulder took at turn for the worst - surgeon said no gym (even legs) until he can be seen. Fortunately, that's Monday and we don't have to wait terribly long to know what's going on. Hopefully not a surgery but I'm starting to think that's what's best otherwise it'll keep dragging out. SD and I will be going solo tomorrow and possibly Friday (she and her brother go back to their mom's for the 4th of July week on Friday so unsure if she'll go to the gym) and I'm solo for at least Monday pending doc's further instructions for BF. I hope my willpower is enough to get me up and moving!

Previous Day's Comments6/25 - 147.5 - A bit of a drop off since I've been behaving and hitting my macros these last couple of days. I'm still on my lowest macros. I think she's keeping me here since I didn't quite get to track/control much of the food on vacation. I also didn't do any dedicated workouts but I definitely got a loooot of movement being at the beach and fishing! Back into routine now - morning workouts and tracking macros. All set for today and already began pre-planning tomorrow to ensure I keep up the good work!

6/25 - 127.6 lbs - Controlled eating yesterday, heavier on protein. No workout since I felt sore. I feel I had lot of sodium on weekend and this weight loss might be the body getting to normal.
6/26 - 126.3 lbs - went out for summmer fun with kids and ate pizza and cake. Still tried to keep myself in check even though spilling over planned calories. Will have to see impact in next 2-3 days6/27

Vacation starts on the 3rd!! A couple of months ago I set a goal to be between 205-203 lbs by the time we went on vacation. I’m very near that goal and would love to hit it, but realistically I don’t know if I can. I’m going to stay consistent and focus on life changes not short term wins.

For me, Taking it 1 or 2hrs before bed helps relax me and I fall asleep quickly. I DO wake up several times, unfortunately, during the night, but have no trouble going back to sleep.
@tiabirdie56 @Chapter_3 I'm curious which type of Magnesium helps you sleep. There are so many types. I keep Magnesium Oxide in the house to help loosen things up when I haven't been able to TMI. It would be wonderful to have a Magnesium that could improve my sleep without having bathroom issues, specifically D
