    Isa here, looking for some accountability. Feeling a little trepidation for this challenge as I'm going through a fibro attack and am not feeling my best. But, I decided it's not going to stop me. I'll set a goal of 1 kg loss for these ten days :) And tracking all food I consume, of course.

    1/11 116.9 kg (tracked my food, am 56 over my 1300 goal...)
    1/12

    Just give it your best shot, and strive for PROGRESS, not perfection. Good luck!

    1/11: What I love about this group (besides all the cool people) is that every 10 days I can hit: RESET. I forget that and get too caught up in what came before and what's coming after, how I succeeded or failed, and general fear of backsliding into the abyss of gaining it all back yet again.

    All of that is irrelevant, today is a fresh start- not for a lifetime, which feels too big, but for the next 10 days. I can manage that.

    Mantra this round: BE IN THE NOW.

    This is exactly how I feel about hitting reset! Sorry, first time commenting properly with a quote, so I kept hitting “quote” over and over again😆 and trying to figure out what to do next. Somewhere in one of the three challenges I participated in is a post with me quoting the same person 8 or 9 times and not adding a comment 😆😆

    R283 : -3.1lbs
    RSW : 58.4 kg or 128.7 lbs
    RGW : 127lbs

    January Goals ::
    1. No drinking in January
    2. Workout 3x a week
    3. IF 16:8 min for 28 days this month
    4. Eat homemade meals only, except one cheat meal a month.
    5. Calorie goal at 1200 this month for fat reduction.

    ** I have seen a problem that when I start eating out more, my tastebuds change. I crave more salty, more fatty food, sweets more often. Following IF and eating homemade meals has helped. I dont crave ordering outside or restaurant food or snacks as much! I have stuck to not drinking even if my husband is, which I consider a win. Lesson from last round, always have preplanned and ready food.

    1/11 - 58.4kg/128.7lb.
    1/12 -
    1/13 -
    1/14 -
    1/15 -
    1/16 -
    1/17 -
    1/18 -
    1/19 -
    1/10 -

    Total loss=128.7-??=??

    @Chapter_3 On the coffee table if that is where you most likely will snack/eat. You can get those snacks from many places including the fridge and the cabinets so.....

    Backstory
    In 2022 I was around 157lbs with 24% bf. Was definitely in the “best shape” of my adult life then. Since then I started a new career working from home as a developer. Have moved away from my family for fiancés job. We’ve moved several times to various states in a short time span. So far we’ve moved 3 times, all about 9 months apart. Welcomed two puppies into the mix. Lots of changes. Lots of time spent at home. Lots of time spent away from family. Fell out of touch with friends. All of the adjustments and figuring out how to manage/handle more daily responsibilities and navigate through this phase of life has manifested into me gaining 20+lbs and losing a lot of willpower, motivation, drive, positivity, etc that I once thrived on. Found this challenge and it has been helping me get it back. Nothing is permanent! Looking forward to working through this.

    Overall Goals and Challenges
    Goals
    1. Focusing on behavior and mindset. Calories have been going way over for so long I need to reel the behavior back in a healthy way.
    2. Don’t give up on the day when it’s challenging. Choose to make good decisions in those moments instead of giving in.
    Challenges
    1. Working from home makes it easy to stress eat or just eat out of boredom/habit.
    2. Sleeping less (have two puppies, a 7mo and a 11mo old) makes it hard to wake up early enough to get a good workout in or at least to feel good awaking up. Feel defeated in the motivation and drive department compared to how I was previously.

    Daily, Small, Attainable Goals
    1. Finish 1st 27oz water before 2pm
    2. Finish 2nd 27oz water before bed
    3. Alternate standing and sitting at desk every other hour during working hours (or stand at least half of the day).
    4. Hit maintenance calories at a minimum.
    5. -200 cal deficit on gym days
    6. If I go over cals, try to cap it at +200

    Gym: 45m legs + 15m stair stepper

    Wins: vacation has started. Went to gym.

    Challenges: as slightly predicted I had 2 drinks with DH last night which put me over my cals. I didn’t even want any really. Sometimes I think it’s hard to not do things others are doing especially when it’s your partner. But he is not a fitness person so there’s always a difference in lifestyle there. All I know is I’m in the mood to fuel my body with good nutrients and lots of water.

    Happy next challenge everyone!
