RSW: 157.4
9/3: 157.5. I had a good day yesterday. Ate within calories (including some veggies!) and went to the gym for a short run and some walking on the treadmill. I've been trying to increase water intake, I'm going to start tracking that as well. I'm also lowering my calorie goal a little. What I'm doing now doesn't seem to be working
9/4: 136.1. Finally a drop! It's a relief to see, as I feel like I am doing everything right, and honestly, don't know how much more I can realistically do. I'm going to keep doing what I am doing and hopefully it will continue to drop. I ate within my calories and went for a run.

@Zaxa2021 An error on your weight for 9/4?
You're right! Dang it, lol. It's supposed to be 156.1, which was the number I was happy about. Thanks for catching it!
@Zaxa2021 I thought you may have cut off a leg or something.6 -

We bought too much fruit (blueberry and peach) at the farmerโs market, now we need to make pie and cobbler to use it all.
Finished an interesting novel last night called โThe Venice Sketchbookโ by Bowen. It was a great way to get a preview of Venice. I found myself tracing the story on my Google Map.

Evidently, I did not post yesterday. This morning, I see how I had selected and copied the text, but the phone must have rung before I could post.

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 โkidsโ, who are very much adults, a two grandsons. We have two parents, 87(mother), 85(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 โall in or notโ 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 (father has since passed and I am DPOA, Personal representative AKA executor, trustee, and oversee the majority of my motherโs care). 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
9/3 โ 135.4 Gotta just trust the process. Eating spot on, and fully tracking. Yesterday, I did do intentional activity. Not athletically impressive, but it was intentional, and that is a process win. Had to get something at Walgreens, in town, and instead of adding it to my car loop later in the day, I walked and walked a slightly longer route home. Then later in the day I convinced DH to go walk the beach with me. We are literally right on the beach, and I/we had not been on it once this year except to walk the cats. Anyhow, Intentional #1 got me 25 min at an OK pace, and intentional #2 got me over 30 min at a snails pace.
9/4 โ 134.2 Finally a little movement in the scale. If I can keep this until the end of the round, I will be content.
9/5 โ 134.4 Actually grateful. Had had a very busy, but otherwise great day. Planned ahead, pre-track, packed lunch back, etc, etc. OK, intentional exercise is still a work in progress. Then, in the evening, I went on a bender. Probably 1500 calories worth. Charging phone and watch now, so I can get out and do some exercise today!

@_JeffreyD_: if you like mysteries, look for Donna Leon- she's an American writer who lives in Venice and her series of detective novels centered on Commisario Guido Brunetti are fun reads and give a good flavor of Venetian culture- they're short and you don't have to read in sequence.
you may find at your library (mine has both digital and paper copies), but if not:

@musicsax Do you need some group brainstorming help to overcome your "struggles" that you mentioned?
@judefit1 Travel and the scale can be enlightening. I remember way back (1980's), DH and I went to italy for 3 weeks. Dropped 7 lb right before going (127 down to 120). The first two weeks were like you describe, lots of traveling and good food with European portions, no binge snacking and walking most places. I gained nothing during those two weeks. The last week was spent with DH's extended family. EVERYONE needed to entertain us. There was one day we had to fit in TWO multi course dinners, in order to visit every home we needed to visit. Lots of sitting included in that week. Anyhow, I gained the full 7 lb back in that one week. Last year we did Scotland/amsterdam and I brought my travel scale. Lots of lovely food, but thoughtfully selected, and the scale reports were fine.4 -

๐๐ปSept Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Sept:
1. P:E: Proteing greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and kcals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan through July. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐คธ๐ผโโ๏ธ ๐พ. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. ๐๐๐๐ง - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of โleveling upโ because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. Iโve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. ๐๐ผโโ๏ธthis is my biggest challenge. I still donโt like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but itโs a daily struggle. Living โfake it till I make itโโฆ Faking my โidentityโ. My hope is that some ๐๏ธโโ๏ธversion eventually becomes a healthy habit. Iโm working on a minimum of 10-minute โ๐๐ผโโ๏ธsnacksโ 2-3x per day, 5x per week. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that ๐๐ผโโ๏ธis the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus โstretch snacksโโฆ I want to up this gameโฆ I will start to add โsprintsโ (which is NOW only fast joggingโฆ ๐) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2โ vertical jump) ๐. I read to โsprintโ is vital as we ageโฆ..
5. I have much โworkโ to do with family relationships. Wonโt detail here, but itโs a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I wonโt be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. Iโm usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I canโt stay up laterโฆ. I love getting up early. Iโm good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-beingโฆ
7. Have funโฆ lighten up โฆ & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!

Will reflect today and set R271 action plan.(I thought today was the last day R270 so Iโll make sure Iโm all in by tomorrow!)

You were able to enjoy eating without limitation in Italy w/12k steps per dayโฆ. My thoughts?
1) Youโve succeeded in implementing nutritional healthy habits (portion control & mindfulness). You are indeed a new you!
2) Italian food = Fresh ingredients w/o hidden seed-oils, chemicals and preservatives. SAD is poisoning Americans.
Progress right there my friend!!!!

9/5: 156.0. It was a good day for me. I ate well and did some intentional exercise. I went to the gym to run on the treadmill again. Although it's only been a few days, it's beginning to feel more like a routine, more normal kind of. I also went for a couple of small walks, as the heat allowed. I'm looking forward to the weather cooling off a bit soon so I can get outside more.

Previous Days' Summaries9/3: 157.5. I had a good day yesterday. Ate within calories (including some veggies!) and went to the gym for a short run and some walking on the treadmill. I've been trying to increase water intake, I'm going to start tracking that as well. I'm also lowering my calorie goal a little. What I'm doing now doesn't seem to be working
9/4: 156.1. Finally a drop! It's a relief to see, as I feel like I am doing everything right, and honestly, don't know how much more I can realistically do. I'm going to keep doing what I am doing and hopefully it will continue to drop. I ate within my calories and went for a run. [\spoiler]4 -

9/03 - 150.4
9/04 - 150.3
9/05 - 149.3 - Managed to stick to goals/macros and drop back down. I am feeling a bit more hungry than usual so I'll see if Coach will maintain or increase. It's not horrible, but any deeper of a deficit may be tempting fate with binging at my weakest moments hah! I did much better about hitting my goal of 8-10k steps and also managed to get in my water goal. Today I'm having a similar lunch and snack to yesterday but a slightly different dinner. I'm aiming to intuitively adjust the lunch/snack to account for the different macros within dinner. I still have one more meal to eat intuitively and 1-2 full days of no tracking this week. Monday's holiday (US) really put me a tad behind - I can't believe it is already Thursday! Tomorrow I'll likely eat lunch intuitively as well as I'll be running errands in town and I don't anticipate being home in time for lunch. Because Monday was a holiday, my 4 days of meal prepped dinners includes Friday (usually Friday is improvised) and breakfast is usually fairly straightforward so lunch it is. Plus, if I eat out it's nearly always just an estimate anyway so perfect to "skip" tracking.

Previous Day's Comments9/03 - Also posted on the previous one. Oops. I'm bloated, retaining water, and just feeling meh. The weather is very much sleeping weather for me (raining and dreary. I love it, but I'm so drained from this weekend it's really not helping me get work done!). I did get to the gym this morning after skipping yesterday. I did a very quick kettlebell workout just to get some kind of movement in yesterday but it wasn't enough. Today the gym lifted my spirits a bit until I sat down behind my computer to work and I'm back to wanting to face plant my keyboard and sleep my day away. Oops! Day is all planned out according to macros and I'm diligently working to front-load water so I don't mess that up again. I barely got in my gallon yesterday and failed to get enough water all weekend otherwise. Here's to progress!
9/04 - I bounced to the 149.x range a couple times before settling here. Probably still holding on to water weight. I feel rather puffy. I stuck to goals yesterday and am on track to do so again today if I eat my dinner and no more snacking after that! I have 28oz left to drink before bed to hit my 1 gallon (128oz) goal Coach set for me. I'm also feeling better mentally and had a really good day at the gym today which is was nice after missing Monday and having an off day yesterday. As of today, I have exactly 1 month until I leave for my week-long vacation! I'm not ready but so ready all at once.

9/3 132.5 Yesterdayโs picnic was a SUGAR STORM! The pulled pork had been liberally doused with extremely sweet sauce. There were baked beans (also sweet) and watermelon. I had some pork with lettuce leaves. For dessert they had cookies. I intended to drink a protein shake before we went but time got away from me. I ate cookies, super sweet pork, and lettuce.
9/4 131.5 Went to Jesse Raeโs BBQ and had REAL pulled pork seasoned with dry rub and smoked, not cooked in sweet sauce. Had my protein shake for dessert, 2 me made jalapeรฑo poppers early. On a side note - we live about 8 miles south of Nellis AFB and I LOVE to hear โthe boysโ flying. The walls virtually rattle in the proper weather/wind condtions. Iโve had to re-order taking my supplements due to the new to me bone support recommended by retired RN neighbor. It is to be taken away from calcium so Iโm taking it when I get up and when I go to bed and taking everything else about 4 hours later in the morning and earlier in the evening.
9/5 133.0 Well, I thought that weight yesterday might be a dream but . . . Wow! Today weโre going to dinner at Golden Corral with friends (their choice) Just stay on the roller coaster and ride.
My email was hacked on Monday and it has taken this long to get access! Wouldnโt you think facial recognition and fingerprint would be enough to prove Iโm me?2 -
@SModa61
I checked Amazon and the company for 1 bottle price and ordered directly. I did get a 3 month supply but didnโt compare that price. Each bottle is a 30 day supply and youโre not supposed to take it with calcium.0 -

Day/Weight/Comment
09/02 โฆ..192.4โฆ.. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/03 -192.0- (Trend weight -191.6-)
09/04 -190.8- (Trend weight -191.5-) I woke up STARVING today. Likely due to the drop on the scale. Iโll have to plan my food carefully today . I have a haircut today at the local salon then the roofing supplies are being delivered today by a home improvement truck. And my Qty 65 Fourteen foot treated 2 x 6 boards may arrive at the Amish lumber yard today for me to begin picking up as it will take several trips due to the weight. If they donโt come in today then it will be next week due to holiday delays. So it will be a busy busy day. I hope all this will help keep my mind off food. My dinner will be key since I will need to avoid so many night time snacks when the day winds down and there is more time to eat. Itโs a plan.
09/05 -190.8- (Trend weight -191.4-) Weight the same as yesterday, trend weight down a notch. After my haircut I did end up eating off a food truck because I was Starving and I could feel my glucose dropping. It was beef-a-roo truck. I had 3 small chicken strips and some fries where each French fry was so tiny I had to use my bifocals to see them. The food was bland, simplistic and pretty awful. I wonโt be doing THAT again! Glad to see my weight sustained and I sincerely hope it donโt rear its ugly head in the days coming. I did tip-toe around food last night for dinner because of it and made some definite adjustments. This is really all about lifestyle changes and Iโm glad I was able to make adjustments to my dinner and snack schedule to accommodate without too much trouble. Baby steps getting back in the saddle again.

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
