I wasn’t very good at posting this round, and yet ironically this was one of the more successful challenges where I feel like everything clicked! Going to keep going with the 300 (301?) minutes of walking next round, as it was very motivating. See you in the next one :-)

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE👍👍

  

SW Rnd 300 133.5  AW 133.0

6/20  132.5  Haircut yesterday. “Swimming” w/DD#2, DSIL and DGGS. I didn’t feel hungry all day. I need that to stick around! I like @Skyleen75 300 seconds but as a couch potato extraordinaire I feel I have to up that to 300 minutes . Starting today water fitness M-W-F and gym or other home workout to make up minutes. 

6/21  137.0  I am speechless! I ate 1 meal yesterday (at Golden Corral) but doubt that it was 5# worth! I did decide to have a glass wine before bed. I can’t remember the last time I had wine. 

6/22  133.0  I wasn’t hungry yesterday (imagine THAT!) I ate one me made taco - my first corn tortilla in years! Only 1! A small glass of wine.

6/23  133.0 Ate beef brisket with minimal sauce. Thawed the rack of pork ribs from my freezer and put dry rub on them, wrapped and in the fridge to marinate. Today is my art quilt group so exercise will be later. I was looking forward to water fitness.

6/24  132.0 I’m such a slug! 0 exercise yesterday except walking. I have remembered that I have hand weights (1, 2, & 3#) from carpal tunnel surgery 30+ years ago. I can use those intentionally every evening! Edit: my plan didn’t exactly work out because my DVD player wouldn’t detect the disc. I tried several so ended up doing a short workout on my phone. So frustrating! 

6/25  132.0  Terrible night with leg muscles cramping. Going to water fitness this morning. 🧁DGGS turned 3! 

6/26  132.0 Yesterday was an excellent day. Today I’m making bread if my back holds out.

6/27  131.5 Water fitness, appointment at the bank, facial, hopefully a mani! Now into the kitchen to work on a loaf of sourdough. Real sourdough takes a loooong time! 

6/28  133.0  Salt!!! Today is DGGS’s birthday party. Yesterday’s sourdough tastes great (very salty) but didn’t rise very well and to be honest, I was tired of waiting - over 24 hours since I started this project. I will try it again but not on a day we have multiple appointments! 

6/29  134.0  Pizza, cake pops, chips at the party. DGGS loves Sharkdog so that was the theme. Sharkdog’s favorite foods are Brussels sprouts and fish sticks which were the cake pops and cake.

Me again, trying for countless times. I have 7 weeks to my wedding party and I cannot fit in my wedding dress. I have been constantly gain weight while I am trying to lose since forever. I’m so tired of myself that I feel like I cannot have control over my body. I’m tired of not being understood and don’t have someone who understands this. Anyway, let’s try again.

SW: 106.6 kg (25 June 2025)

GW: 100 kg (12 August 2025)

UGW: 75 kg

6/25 - 106.6 kg

6/26 - 106.6 kg

6/27 - 106.4 kg

6/28 - away from home, didn’t weight

6/29 - 107.6 kg

@Skyleen75 thank you. yeah, of course changing dress is an option, it has been discussed. But it won’t be as nice and I don’t want it to be changed. I am already not happy in my body and want to change it.

@stephanj unfortunately especially the dress has been the most stressful part. I try to be nice to myself but it has been challenging. Thanks for the message.

06/26-190.2 ❌ - (Trend Weight: 191.1)

06/27-189.8 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 191.0)

06/28-191.2 ❌ - (Trend Weight: 191.0) What a disappointment! I was well under calories yesterday (988). My carbs were within my limits and made up of healthy carefully chosen items. Contributing factors are likely a lack of sleep last night (5 hours), a very late dinner (11:30 pm ) and no TMI this morning. I am a night owl and my dinner is usually at about 8:30 or 9:00 pm. However, the pork loin just wasn’t cooking as fast as it should have been on the inside. It did finally get done but is my oven okay? I guess I will find out in the days/weeks to come. Most days are just too hot to turn the oven on right now. Anyway, hopefully things will settle in so I can have a reasonable weight tomorrow for the end of the challenge!

Challenge 300: I ate 300+ less calories yesterday.

🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️06/29-188.8 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 190.8) Go figure. Weight was easy up yesterday and easy down today with nothing different or unusual either way. Still no TMI today x 2 or x3. I can’t even remember which now. However, I did get more sleep last night. Dinner was still very very late (11:30 pm). I was so busy and so angry about it that I ate 5 extra crackers in my soup because I was being defiant, stubborn and acting like a toddler I suppose. That put me a bit over on my carbs but my calories were still well within limits. No time for exercise either which was disappointing. My daughter made an Alfredo concoction and I am proud that I did not eat it (which is one reason my dinner was so late). The Alfredo would have been a lot of calories (carbs would have been ok) but the pasta would have been a carb disaster. At least there is that…. I’m down 2.8 lbs this round which is very good for these old bones. See you next round!

Challenge 300: I ate 300 calories less yesterday. I have enjoyed the challenge this round but I was hoping that I would spend 30 minutes per day on exercise as my most common choice and that didn’t happen. Instead I ended up cutting down on my allotted food allowance. I NEED MORE EXERCISE! (And more time to do it!)

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

6/21 142.4 (trend 142.1) 10.29 miles walked.6/22 140.8 (trend 141.9) such fluctuations! but I think yesterdays was due to the high carbs previous day. 11.9 miles walked.

6/23 140.8 – (trend 141.8) no structured walking; travelled up to DS & family for a birthday BBQ for DH.

6/26 139.6 – (trend 141.2) 7.74 miles walked.

6/27 139.6 – (trend 141) no structured walking. This will be my end of round weight, later today we tow the caravan up to Derbyshire & Yorkshire for a weeks holiday. Very happy that at the moment I seem to have settled into good healthy eating within normal limits, 2 pounds lost. I’ll still check in each day.

6/28 DNW - 5.94 miles walked.

6/29 DNW - 9.23 miles walked yesterday, it was supposed to be a rest day before DH ran the 25k run around Sheffield today! We walked to a local town for their Open Garden event & managed to get around 28 of the 30 gardens, but Wirksworth is built on a hill, so as well as the distance there were lots of statues and hill walking between the gardens!!

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE & I AM WHAT I EAT!!!!! 👍👍.
