I enjoy reading everyone’s posts with my morning coffee.

Rnd 273 End Weight 169.4

10/03- 170.1
10/04- 172.8 Friends in from out of town and her mother insisted on cooking for all of us. It is impossible not to relax into the comfort of “mom’s cooking” and it would be insulting to say no.
My only misstep was skipping my early afternoon snack, I arrived so hungry that I ate a ton of chips and dip while waiting for dinner. I didn’t like or want the chips.
Oh well, better next time. My body has wild number swings and I know once I get past this weekend I’ll be settling into my high 160’s for good this round.
I have a concert with old friends tonight, I wisely offered to dd so no temptation to drink my calories. I’ve studied the menu for our pre show dinner and I’m not skipping my afternoon snack.
Hoping for a lazy day floating on the river with DH tomorrow. We could use some downtime.

SW on day before I left for Italy for three weeks.

/logged yesterday; walked yesterday; 80 oz water/

Well, I am back after two and a half rounds off for a trip to Italy. Was I careful what I ate? Yes, very careful. I was careful to eat everything that was put in front of me. 😊 Such a nice trip though.

I am therefore very surprised that my scale reading was lower this morning than the day I left. Maybe it had to do with 15,000 to 20,000 steps each day uphill both ways.

I return with a renewed sense of urgency to do better. We are entering what I call the danger zone. October, November, December. (it’s only 25% of the entire year!)

10/4: 220.2
/logged; exercised; 78 oz water/

Pumkin pancakes at Rotary yesterday for lunch.

Last night I grilled some fresh salmon. Our grocery store had a huge overstock, so $10/pound was on sale for $1/pound, so DW bought a 3.4 pound slab! “this is the best salmon I have ever had,” said DW. Gave some to kiddos, and we have plenty left over for a salad topping today. DW will make salmon burgers out of the thin raw scraps.

Good to be back with you all!

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Up solid 2lbs since 7/3/24 (R264) after a month of consistent 129-130. This is the slow creep. Didn’t sleep well. Will reflect, journal & establish non-scale 🏋️‍♀️⏱️🚶‍♀️📚💤 goals for this round (JGM10 days!!!!) today. Re-commit to P:E WOE. Want stable ⚖️130lbs. 💪🏻#HSF
Good luck all!

10/4 ⚖️130.6 Had to weigh three times to believe it.
✅ 🏋️‍♀️15min 🚶‍♀️11k⏱️HIIT 💦📚 💤8hrs. P:E 3:1, Pg 137. Yes!!!!

⚖️-total surprise this morning… Am I simply going to have one to 2 lb fluctuations day-in day-out? -I guess that’s what’s going on? Geez Louise!

I did have an incredible day yesterday… I reflected, read, created a plan to work on sprints and plyo during my walk-then DID IT! I adjusted my Apple Watch for intervals and it’s easy to measure & track. I set up one 7 minute HIIT with 20 second work and 40 second recover. When I got to the park, I did two of these… I must look like a total fool! My sprint is hardly a “true sprint” & plyo is hardly true “jumps” but at least I’m doing it. This is ground zero! Im actually motivated to start & track these movements with proven benefits.

P:E - increased protein, reduced “Energy” significantly: lowered fat & only 2 carbs yesterday. (I did have to drink some of my protein to reach those levels).

Forced myself to 🏋️‍♀️. This journey requires a great deal of self-discipline…. As life. I’m discovering that I enjoy working toward something… It must be defined. #HSF

NSV: Actually, DOING what I said I would DO is one of the best feelings in the world!

Supposed to play tennis today, but it just started raining so I’ll substitute. I don’t want to get ahead of myself, but yesterday was the perfect kick start to a great round!

@SheilaBoneham I can feel your focus through the screen! It’s super motivating. It inspires me to know how many times you’ve considered throwing in the towel but you always just dig a little deeper and try something new.
I’m glad you’ve stuck it out and share openly with all of us. Let’s go crush this day!!!!

@SheilaBoneham
I remember many rounds ago you openly contemplated leaving the group which sparked a discussion of how much individuals are missed when they just disappear vs sharing with the group ahead of time… I’m so glad you stuck around because I find daily inspiration in your journey… Keep it up!

@_JefferyD_ Welcome back!

@Skyleen75 I’m guessing your last day at the market was emotional … Good luck on your next journey! Is it with your village?

@jspecies11
Vertigo? Can you handle another bit of advice? If you have suffered from vertigo before I’m sure you have heard of the Epley Maneuver? I’ve used it twice and it worked like a dream for me. If you have not heard of it, there are several YouTube video demonstrations and it’s quite easy to implement.

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 193.4

10/03 -DNW- (Trend weight -DNW-) I didn’t remember that I’d forgotten to weigh until I was fully dressed and drinking my morning Java. Ah well. I slept well last night between my normal multitude of diabetic potty breaks. It was refreshing to get more than 5 hours. Good luck this round everyone.

10/04 -DNW- (Trend weight -DNW-) It’s no-weigh Friday for me. I was up extra early as the bus for DGS comes even earlier than last year. Missed the bus at the beginning of the year so I am trying to readjust schedule. Boy is it ever tough trying to get long sleeves and jackets on him with that cast on his arm! This cooler weather is calling for warmer clothing for sure. Last Friday my DD brought in ice cream since it was payday. I hope she will keep her money in her pocket this week. It’s not likely though. Trying to stay strong! Have a good weekend everyone!

Non-scale goals for round 274 (tracked for the prior day each morning):
🏃🏻‍♀️(cardio) or 🏋🏻‍♀️ (lift) 7/10 days
🚫 no alcohol 5/10 days
📝 track 6/10 days
⏱️ intermittent fasting (16:8) 5/10 days

10/3 - 134.2 ⏱️🚫 I never did get my rear in gear yesterday. I'm feeling overwhelmed with everything. We just have a boil water notice in my town but even that is making everything feel just a touch harder. When I was making dinner last night I kept accidentally rinsing produce in the sink, and with a kitchen full of dishes we had to take them outside to hose them off with well water after we washed them in the sink. Today I think we're ordering in but I don't necessarily trust restaurants to be doing the right thing to avoid customers getting sick. In the grand scheme I know it isn't a big deal and so many people are going through such a bad experience. Sometimes I feel like I lack resilience and just always fill my life to capacity so that one extra little thing sends me over the edge. This is reminding me to schedule a therapy session, yeesh. But it just feels like all the other things I need to do are getting on top of me. I couldn't even find clean socks for my kids this morning and I work from home, so putting clothes through the wash is objectively VERY EASY.

On to health stuff, I'm on dog walking duty today but I also really need to go to the gym and lift. Hopefully I can do both. Work is also overwhelming me but at least I don't have meetings today.

10/4 - 135.0 ⏱️🏃🏻‍♀️I was doing so well getting to the gym for lifting until this week. I don't think I'm going to make it today either. On the positive side, I e-biked both my boys to their schools this morning so I got some light activity and outdoor time in to start the day. One of our neighbors started a "bike bus" where kids gang up and bike to school together on the trail behind her house. There's definitely safety in numbers when it comes to biking so I'm all for it. My 5-year-old can't quite bike the hills so for now I'll carry him on my bike. It will just be once a week or so. Nervous heading into the weekend. Dinner tonight is likely from a food truck at an event we're going to. And tomorrow is a big pot luck at a local-ish farm we buy produce from. It's always just hard in general because I have less control over meal times and places when I have to consider the rest of my family for the whole day instead of just in the evenings.

10/4-163-Finally getting ahold of the kefir grains that are coming out of my ears. DH is taking the morning off of work to move the driveway rock around before it gets hot. No time to walk but I do get a lot of steps in and moving. Got my broccoli and chard planted in my raised beds.

It’s a beautiful fall day here, so after I stock up on dog & cat food, I’m off to the Rivergreenway for a walk. It’s such a relief to finally feel I don’t need to be within 2 minutes of a bathroom, and so far I haven’t had any foot cramps since I stopped taking magnesium supplements. I had thought I couldn’t make my end-of-year goal of 170, but I feel much more hopeful now. I don’t usually set number goals, just behavioral goals, because I can’t control results, only efforts, but I think this one is reasonable. Since DH is finally onboard about how damaging pasta is for me, we’re doing just fine with a lot of “feed ourselves” days, and I know that’s helping. My big downfall at the moment is occasional Triscuit splurges, but as indulgences go, that’s not too bad. And I’m showing much more restraint!

Another of those mystery “upbumps.” I’m trying to ignore it as I ate responsibly. Charlie and I went for a nice long walk in one of our favorite parks. Plan to repeat today.

10/4 Lots of costume sewing yesterday . . .

I suspect THIS is part of the reason I have not had a relationship with my sewing machine in some time. “Just want to finish. . .” which adds minutes and minutes until an hour or more has passed and I end up with a huge headache due to arthritis in my neck. We need to take care of ourselves!

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

Daily diet: <1600 calories | <80g net carbs | 100+ oz water | 25+g fiber | 100+g protein
Weekly exercise: 2+ cardio-based workouts | 2+ strength training | 5+ walks (1 mile minimum)
Misc: 8-10 hours of sleep | daily food tracking | weekly body measurements

I get why all ya'll love weight training so much now. I feel different, and I feel so much stronger. I walk faster. I'm still a baby in the strength training world, but I'm going to keep it up.

10/3 238 / Homecoming shopping with a hormonal 17-year-old counts as a workout, right? - 1210 calories, 56 net carbs

Achieved my daily goals.

10/4: 160.9 lbs
Didn't exercise but did stick to my calories. I must be dropping a lot of water at the moment. If I end this round at this weight I will be happy. When I have bigger drops in weight though, I tend to self-sabotage. I will have to be extra vigilant if I want this weight to stick.
