    3/22 - 168.9

    3/23 - 169.1

    3/24 - 169.0

    3/25 - 169.5

    3/26 - 169.6

    3/27 - 168.5 - TOM finally arrived which came with a whoosh of a pound. I'm definitely feeling lighter and leaner today, too, proving my theory of water weight/bloating as the culprit of the last few days increased scale readings. Had a bit of a hectic day. Harley, my pretty pup, was acting funny since Tuesday evening. We thought maybe she ate a bee or something and wasn't feeling well. Turns out, last night getting her on the bed, we hit her right hip and it's horrifically tender. No wonder she couldn't jump up on her favorite chair, the couch, or the bed and didn't want to move around much! I called the vet as soon as they opened and took her in. Well, she has a very large bone spur in the socket of her right hip. Anti-inflammatory pain meds, some joint supplements, and a promise that if she doesn't improve (the inflammation is high and causing the sudden flare up of pain) or she gets worse, we will call and they will forward her images to an ortho and get us in with them to see options for helping her. For being 8 in June, she's absolutely healthy otherwise! Not even arthritis in her knees or anything, which is great. Hopefully that means these supplements will help keep her in the clear going forward. I took Smoke for a walk while she was at the vet but it's supposed to be rainy these next several days - I was upset that I'd miss a walk but it may be better now the rain is forcing us not to walk because I don't want to make Harley feel left out by me only taking Smoke or by irritating her hip by taking her with. I have a walking pad to get my walks in indoors. Hah! It started raining again just as I typed that. I guess Mother Nature is agreeing with me.

    On track for food today. I had my afternoon snack late since I was out picking Harley up (we live 45 minutes from the vet) but it works out since the Man is driving from out of town home and I'm hoping I can wait until he gets home to eat together. If I can wait without needing a snack then I'll have my macros for the day nearly perfect and I'm feeling much better about handling this cut again. It's been challenging but I now have 3 weeks of meal planning to figure out something that works well going forward for me.

    I heard it in the words of a song some weeks ago when I was driving up to childmind my little DGD & it struck a cord with me.

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 291
    March 22 – 31, 2025

    SW: 134.0

    3/22- 132.4 so last round I got into the 133’s for a couple of days, then the tick up. But it was there. My goal this round will simply be to see how many days I can  keep some sort of 132. Would like to end the round with a 132.X Yesterday, no walk, but did some elliptical and an hour machines at the gym. I am starting to get more comfortable there. Daily was solidly under, but I was not hungry. I think the caffeinated coffee I had at noon (before the gym) might have been a factor.

    3/23- 134.2 Man, what a tease. Yesterday, was pretty perfect. Did my walk. Calories were good. Only other variable is the gym, which was mid-afternoon in the 21st. I just checked in with “Dr. Google” and I found the claim that peak fluid retention is 24-36 hours after the workout. So, maybe I can point my finger that way. I certainly have muscle pain, so we know there are some things going on.

    3/24- 132.4 Ok, so two 132.X sightings in one round. Maybe there is hope it will stick around. Yesterday, I did the morning walk (5 miles) then after dinner DH and I went for a lap together (1.6ish miles). Tracking was thorough and target good (slightly higher but good nutrients). Today, skipping the walk and will do a gym day.

    3/25- 132.4 Three out of 4. If I don’t do down once more ounce this round, I will be happy. Question is can I keep this. Yesterday, I traded my walk for the gym. Did 11 min elliptical, and an hour on machines. Cut myself short by one exercise due to hitting myself on the face, and then snuck out of the gym bleeding and with a goose egg. And we all say the gym is healthy for us. :P Two times ago, I popped a rib which I am still working through. Today is a walk, then am facing a “fine dining” restaurant that I have never been to, with people we have never dined with. I have looked at the menu and have two plans in place depending on how our guests order food. I am also going to try and reserve calories for the evening. I am not great at that. Then tomorrow is DH’s birthday. Just pizza out with his fishing buddy, but another calorie challenge. At least I know that any leftover pizza go home with our widowed friend.

    3/26- 132.4 Well I stuck to my dining out plan. Went to bed fine, but had trouble sleeping I am so hungry……. BUT I did get the 132.4 for 4 out of 5, so maybe this is not just a down blip. The restaurant was a mess. I think that was also a factor of my sleep issues at 2:30 AM I kept thinking of everything I could put in a review. Yesterday was a 5+ walk and today will be the same. OH, today is DH’s 64th birthday, so I am facing pizza tonight. So a second day  in a row pushing my calories off to the end of the day.

    3/27- 132.2 Made it through two dietarily challenging days. Did closer to 6 miles yesterday. Pre-tracked, and was careful to not overeat during the day.

    3/28- 132.2 Six out of seven so far. Gym day yesterday, with no injuries. Yay! Starting to feel more like I belong there. Feels good. Yesterday, calories crept up a bit, and I ate into some of my exercise calories. But mental math, made it sound ok. Not looking to lose more on this round, just trying to hold on. Fortunately, on this round the next out to eat is the NIGHT of the 31st. :)

    @Chapter_3 : I won my 🎾 match, my team won our 🎾match & we won the 🎾division by ONE SET. It was crazy close. This was over eight matches since January - a roller-coaster season… including snow, freeze-outs & rain-outs. State is 4/11-4/13. Will be fun. It’s a pleasure to be involved in an adult league … I enjoy the competition and friendships. We have a couple of ladies at our club in their mid 80s & playing incredible tennis - they are phenomenal. An inspiration! #agingyoung #ENGAGED

    Congratulations, Carolyn!! You're an inspiration to us all!

    @Skyleen75 : I think those tasks that weigh our minds down make it harder to stay on track, and when I'm procrastinating with something weighty it's sapping my energy. Good luck getting those mentally draining tasks off your plate. And kudos for you for couples therapy with any thorny relationship, especially a sister. <3

    This is my posting format….

    Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed. / Comment

    3/21/25 : 227.8 SW a day before.

    3/22: 227.4
    Good morning at the gym yesterday, otherwise most of the rest of the day was parked in front of the boob tube watching NCAA basketball. TV is a trigger for me to eat a little snick-snack here and there. Kept it to a dull roar although there was some failure.

    I have a 50th High School class reunion this September. (I know, some of you weren’t born yet in 1975. Maybe for some of you, your parents weren’t born yet. HA!!!)I want to be at my goal weight before that.

    3/23: 227.4
    Second verse, same as the first (but without gym.)

    We did have a diversion. Friends celebrated their marriage with a little reception yesterday. A happy story. Kayak and fishing theme, hokey but fun. We each got our own little cup of “bait.” Gummy worms and frogs. I just sat there grazing on those worse-than-worthless snacks.

    Oh, and we are looking at upgrading our vehicle to a 7 passenger what-cha-ma-call-it. It’s not a van, it’s not an SUV. There are times where it would be nice to get another 2 couples into the car for a dinner (or something) out, or, to pile the kids and grandkids in for an outing. Here is the problem. To get into that third row it’s a combination of mountain climbing, yoga and spelunking. If one of them is wearing a skirt everyone else needs to wear a blindfold. Quite the task for our older friends (and for DW and me.) Maybe we should just punt and buy a Prius.

    3/24: 229.0
    This bump should have happened yesterday, but we all know about delayed penalties for misbehavior. Yesterday my fitbit/pixel watch says I burned 11 calories. 11!

    Seeking no system errors today!

    3/25: 227.8
    Ate a hair (or an entire mullet) too much yesterday, but rocked the exercise.

    And, we bought the what-cha-ma-call-it. Used Subaru Ascent. We will likely be passing the Outback down to the kiddos for the benefit and safety of the grand kiddos. (our real motivation for a new car)

    I saw a pickup truck in the showroom yesterday with a sticker price of $114,000! Limited edition. They had just sold it for $125,000. There was a bidding war evidently.

    3/26: 227.4
    Microscopic changes but trending downward.

    Today’s challenge: A couple lunch friends and I will be touring a local frozen pizza plant (small) run by another friend. They have a regional market, not quite national yet. Then it’s pizza for lunch at the plant.

    3/27: 228.0
    I am right in the middle of a 3-day (3-round) pizza wrestling match, today being DW’s birthday.

    Yesterday I was taken down at the pizza factory tour. I was able to offset it because of my morning spinning class where my average heart rate for 45 minutes was 135. I was sucker punched by a piece of (Marie Callendar) cherry pie I baked for DW.

    Today is Rotary. Deep dish pizza on the menu. This day has the best chance of success.

    Tomorrow will be ridiculous. I have a slim chance of not being pinned. On the last Friday of each month after class, our gym class goes out for lunch at Pizza Ranch of all places. (Pizza, Fried Chicken, Salad Bar) Then, to celebrate DW we are taking the kiddos and my mom to a Chinese buffet for supper. On the bright side I should be able to get out for a good ride or long hike (or both) on a warm windy day.

    Once again I am “beset” with first-world problems.

    3/28: 230.0
    Ugh! Oooph! The “bill” for the 26th and 27th just came due.

    Last minute plans yesterday for DW’s birthday. We went out for dinner at the local, very good, BBQ place. I could have pre-logged my order; I didn’t. I could have ordered salad for my side dish; I didn’t. I could have had a light beer; I didn’t. I could have had only one beer; I didn’t. I could have kept my paws off DW’s french fry pile (she invited me in); I didn’t. After all of this I could have logged it all; I didn’t.

    Could have; would have; should have!

    Has anyone ever pre-logged a buffet? (two of them staring me in the face today) When will I learn that celebration does not need to involve eating until I am literally full? And on a side note, when will I take inflammation seriously?

    RSW - 131.8lbs
    RGW - 130.8lbs

    Goals -
    1. Eat in calorie limits
    2. Get active
    3. Drink lots of water

    3/22 - DNW
    3/23 - DNW
    3/24 - 131.8 lbs. I am tired of losing same weight over and over. Had long work trip, celebrations at home, spring break and just gave up on balanced lifestyle in between these events. After a month of negligence, I am feeling worse and out of control. I feel heavy to sleep at night with heartburns and generally slow and unmotivated during the day. Time to get back on track and stick to the program.

    3/25 - 130.9 lbs. Stuck to planned eating and stopped myself as I started to binge. Keeping initial goals easy until I get comfortable with getting on track.

    3/26 - 130.3 lbs. Ate planned meals, stuck to healthy carbs, high protein meals, 10K steps and 10c of water

    3/27 - 130 lbs. Ate planned meals, stuck to healthy carbs, high protein meals, 10 K steps, 12c water. Avoided sweets and chips at office and avoided drinking socially after hours.

    3/28 - 130 lbs. Ate planned meals, did snack a bit unplanned but limited it and kept it healthy, high protein, controlled carbs, 10K steps, 12c water. Need to mkae sure I keep this momentum during weekend.

    @_JeffreyD_ My advice for buffet is first, walk the whole buffet, so you can see what you want to spend your calories on. second, only one plate that is a single depth, kind of like what a plate might look like if you were being served a plated meal. That's all I got for you. Hope it helps. Two in one day will be an extra challenge. Good luck!

    SW RND 291: 168.2

    Finally a light at the end of the tunnel! First day out of bed and back at work after being home with the flu all week. Packing a healthy lunch will try and take a walk on my break. Yesterday I tried and felt dizzy. I can’t wait to feel recovered about to get out in the garden those peas don’t plant themselves. Not looking forward to today, going to have a lot of work to catch up on.

    03/27-195.6- (Trend Weight: 194.9) Well, I was on target with the issue yesterday but furnace is still not working correctly or consistently. Me and the handyman will be all over it again today. Luckily no pipes froze last night.

    I stuck to good meal plans yesterday but ate my emotions in my “low carb and approved” snacks. I read the post by @judefit1 and it struck me deeply this morning. I hope that her post and my feelings toward it will help me make the changes I need to make more permanent and ingrained. I will say more on this in my response to her in a little while. I’m thankful for her and for all of you.

    🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 03/28-DNW- (Trend Weight: DNW) No weigh Friday. I finally broke down and called an HVAC company. We don’t have one local so it will be a bit more expensive due to travel time. The plan is that they will diagnose the problem or part we need, we can order it and my handyman can put it in. He has done some furnace repair in the past and even worked for an HVAC company for a short time before he moved here to our remote area. I hope for an answer today and a repair soon. In the meantime I am babying out heat at 66 degrees (it works pretty good if I don’t ask for more). It’s still very snowy and cold here in Northern Michigan so that is not a comfortable temp but it’s keeping the pipes from freezing and keeping the cat comfortable, especially when I turn on the Eden Pure for a bit to warm up her space. My bed is still in the livingroom because of the reno so she stays snuggled up on top and lets the Eden Pure rock her world. My son has a little ceramic blower on him most of the time in his basement apartment so he is okay. Praying for answers today! Pebbles is counting on me!

    *** I see now this round ends directly after the weekend so thinking I’m either going to have a gain or I’m going to have to stay inside..away from outside temptations…maybe I should stay inside a padded room with my arms strapped?? Oh and add duct tape over my mouth! That should help***

    3/22 - 168.9

    3/23 - 169.1

    3/24 - 169.0

    3/25 - 169.5

    3/26 - 169.6

    3/27 - 168.5

    3/28 - 167.9 - Well, I wasn't expecting that. I did stick to plan yesterday and stayed perfectly on track with my macros. I went ahead and checked in today and it increased me a tiny bit - 1g protein, 1g fat, 2g carb increase so nothing significant but I will take it! We're having date night tonight so I've pre-planned my meal based on my favorite there and I'm just barely within goal. I could forego a side on my lunch or skip my afternoon meal but I feel like that'd leave me too hungry and I'd be tempted to overeat. Best to just aim for my snack so I'm not so ravenous at dinner and then focus on not eating all my rice (my macros allow me 1/2 cup rice and they usually give about a cup's worth so I just need to focus on eating only half which is usually what happens anyway). Good cardio day playing various basketball games with the guys. My sciatic is acting up due to the hectic weather, but it only slowed me down a bit, not stop me. Harley seems to be doing better today with her hip and we managed a small walk outside - slow and short, but it got us all moving so I'm very content there. Hopefully the inflammation and pain will fade entirely before we even finish all her meds and she'll be back to normal again soon.

    Well that is a bit of a surprise. That weight is ~1.5lbs below the trendline, so I know it isn't real. I got a cortisone shot in my hip yesterday (finger's crossed that it works!), could that have caused water weight loss?

    Measurable Daily Goals
    🚶🏽- Closing my rings M-S Move = 700/Exercise = 45/Stand = 12)
    🍎- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget (~ 1650 ~)
    ✅ - Macros - Protein (75g - 100g) Carbs < 75g
    💧- Water - 50 oz minimum
    🚫 - No Wine
    ⬇️- Downward trend

    Starting Round 291 : 229.2 Goals/10 days!🚶🏽🍎✅💧🚫⬇️
    3/22 229.2
    3/23 DNW
    3/24 229.2 Ready, Reset, Focus!
    3/25 230 ~ 🚶🏽💧Not happy with that number at all….but it makes sense. Was over on calories but did make it to the gym. No problem closing my rings: move 1004/700, exercise 85/45, stand 14/12, so a very good physical day. I've got to review my nutritional approach (again)….Ready, Reset, Focus!
    3/26 230
    3/27 230
    3/28 228.0 ✅💧🚫⬇️ Yesterday was a day of rest after returning to the gym on Monday, treadmill at home Tuesday and Wednesday (work days). Weird how the scale didn't move for 3 days and then suddenly down 2lbs. Not complaining by any means. Today is on track, been to the gym and rings almost closed, so it will be a good day. It's "date" night and we are going to sushi later and a concert.

    @astroamy I haven’t had the issue you had with MFP but I was sending a birthday email to my brother and it went to the outbox and wouldn’t go to him SO I recreated it and sent it again and it sent him both! I hate computers, phones, tablets, electronics in general!

    @itladyee Mine entree was tasty, but the size of an appetizer for $65. Hubby said his entree was off, and the bread pudding he ordered (I stole a couple bites), just tasted like stale bread. But worse things can happen in life!
