JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS | Round 17

SharGetsHealthy · September 2017

I started this journey on round 16.
Ultimate Goal Weight: 157
RND 16 SW: 178.2 EW: 177 - Loss 1.2
RND 17 SW: 178 GW: 176

9/20 - 178 - I'm pretty sure that this gain is salt from Chinese last night. Planning on lots of water today to flush it!
9/21 - 176.5 That's better!
9/22 - 177.5 - Another high sodium day and not enough veggies and water. I'll have to work on that
9/23 - 177.5
9/24 - 176.3
9/25 - 179.5 Pretty obvious that I didn't have a good food day yesterday.

Today will be better

@manleyr14 your hard workout has caused your muscles to hang on to e tea water for repair. Hang in there, it's temporary, if you are still eating right.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/20 155
9/21 156 UGH! Pizza for dinner at community bingo last night. I only ate the toppings off one slice of veggie and had taken a healthy salad from home. One SF adult beverage but overall maybe not enough fat or perhaps this is the salt.
9/22 156. I ate dinner too late! Almost 9 PM!! This afternoon I go to my retreat and will be without a scale until I get home late Sunday. I will have a lot of catching up to do! Next weigh in on Monday! AARRGGGHHH
9/23 RETREAT
9/24 RETREAT Going home this afternoon. This has been a fun, productive weekend. We'll see what the scale reveals tomorrow, I have had some junk but nothing like last year.
9/25 157.5 Up but not surprised. Had a great time at our mini-retreat. Over the weekend, the only things o should not have eaten were a half piece of Trash Treat and 3 hands full of popcorn. And unmeasured alcohol. Learned to make homemade noodles and Buckeyes. Had 3 dozen Buckeyes to bring home which my husband will take care of. I was not even tempted. My biggest problem was not drinking enough water. I think I will not have a problem recouping. I'm so glad to have spent time with these wonderful women but am equally glad to be back to this group.
9/26 157.5 Getting back to my eating plan. I probably had too much fat yesterday.

Round 17
Starting weight 175.6
I'm heading the wrong direction and very frustrated. Had a long discussion with myself on what I've been doing incorrectly. I need to move some every day. Drink less alcohol all the way around. I tend to lose focus when my sons health (Crohn's disease) is not going well. Seek comfort in the wrong things.

Good morning everyone!

CW :180
GW for challenge 178
GW overall 154
Day/Weight/Comment
9/20 : I weighed in at 180 and really want to reach the 70s! Hoping to get a workout after work! I made all my meals for today so no eating out.
9/21: 181. Yikes!! lol I'm not sure why? I was under calories but didn't hit my water goal so maybe that's why? Still comited and doing strong! The 70s will be mine!!!!
9/22 179.4. Yayy!!!! I'm going to keep it going so I stay in the 70s. I had a great day yesterday! All my meals planned, a nice workout, increased my water intake and eight hours of sleep! I wonder how much I'd weigh if everyday was like that? Doing the same today! Feeling determined!
9/23 178.2! Wow!!! Okay. I'm hoping to keep it here! I've had another great day yesterday. I am so happy! Going for another great day today since I work late tonight.
9/24 179.0. I'm okay with this number. My weigh in was wayyyy earlier then normal since I had to be at work at 5:30am!! I also had an emotional day yesterday which lead to my workout being before I went to sleep rather then earlier in the day! I was still under my calorie goal which is great but I was no where near the 8 hours of sleep so I feel sluggish today. Hopefully I can make it through work without any issues.
9/25 179.6 so yesterday was not a good day for me. I was over on calories started TOM and just gave into a lot of cravings. Worried about today as well as I am eating out with my mother and her choices in restaurants aren't always health friendly. So I'm planning a hard work out night to head in the right direction tomorrow
9/26 178.6 Yes!!! I knew I could do it! Okay let's see how I can do today now that I'm closing! Closing shifts are my favorite because I have a great routine when it comes to them! So hopefully I'm the same or go down again tomorrow !
9/27

I'm in!
Starting weight this round 168.
Goal Weight this round 166.5

Day/Weight/Comment
9/20 - 167.2 Huh. Guess I had some water weight to lose since I haven't been at much of a calorie deficit. Think I'll switch my goal weight to 166.5
9/21 - 166.8 Okay, I moved into a new construction neighborhood. But do they really have to start the heavy work at 7 AM on my day off?! (Yes, official work hours are 7-7, I knew that but argh)
9/22 - 167
9/23 – 167.4 I'd forgotten how annoying an uptick trend like this is. Won't worry about it, I know I was within my calorie limit the last few days.
9/24 – 166.5 Woohoo! Gotta love those hormonal swings. Hope I cans stay here to the end of this round!
9/25 - 166
9/26 – 165.8 Yay! And today's exercise will be using a reel mower for the first time.

My goals for this round is to continue to work on my hydration, especially on the weekend, and purposefully spend time stretching at least 8 of 10 days.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/20--225.5 Natural fluctuation. I also think I may be coming down with a cold.
9/21--225.5 Stretched yesterday
9/22--225.3 Back to the start of the round. I would love to break into the 224's by the end of this round, but I don't like to make weight goals. Weightlifted and stretched yesterday.
9/23--225.7 Was over about 400 cals yesterday, so not surprised about the temporary water gain. Stretched yesterday and went out for a hike today.
9/24--226.8 Total water retention. So sore from my hike yesterday and I did not drink enough water. Stretched yesterday.
9/25--225.9 The water weight is starting to go. The one thing that I realized this weekend is that I did not drink a lot of water and last night I started snacking even though I wasn't hungry. I caught myself from going over my calories too much, but it made me realize again that what we think may be hunger may really just be thirst.
9/26--224.6 Whoosh!

9/20 255.4 -- Starting the challenge with a nice, new low weight. Hello, 255!
9/21 257.6 -- Chinese take out and a pecan praline-induced snack attack. Let’s make this the high for this round, eh?
9/22 257.0 -- Starting the slow descent; shedding the water and avoiding overeating. Another day or two (or three) and I should be back down to where I started this round.
9/23 256.8 -- Down a titch but I ate right through any deficit last night. Late night snacking is my nemesis!!
9/24 255.6 -- Yay! Self discipline! I even managed to watch Anthony Bourdain eat his way across Paraguay late last night without heading to the kitchen. The urge was there but I fought it!
9/25 254.8 -- CICO rocks! With a new pound reached, time to recalculate TDEE-500 and shave another 5 calories off my daily limit.

9/23 - Didn't weigh-in

Started R6 @ 177.1
First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ... At a slow rate
End of R15 158.8
End of R16 162.2

9/20 - 160.7 I tried Chefs Plate for the first time last night (promo rate) had Chicken Romanesco Bucatini. It was a lot of calories 870!! It was tasty and large I planned for it AND I lost some lbs.... Hmmm. Hit just over my step goal. I think I need to walk before dinner instead of after as it is getting darker and colder out!! Looking for some 5's now.
9/21 - 159.7 Here comes those 5's. Walked 12,400 steps, hit calorie goal. Still need to figure out an evening workout plan. Hope these 5's stick around for awhile.
9/22 - 160.4 Looks like 5's are a fighter. 13,982 steps hit calorie goal was under near the end of the night and had some protein, maybe I miss calculated. Or its just a bounce!! Happy Friday everyone. No real weekend plans yet I'm hoping the weather holds can have a nice walk and clean the house some!!
9/23 - 159.5. Looks like a nice sunny day here today. Gotta get active!!! Love the 5’s
9/24 ~ 158.4. Spent the day cleaning and organizing. Hit 13,000+ steps doing it. Set my 20 year old son up in the basement. Lol. Pushed for a high protein day and did ok. 5

. Step challenge??? Maybe.
9/25 - 158.8 Think my fitbit is broken. My unit said I was in the high teens when I last looked at it and my app now says just over 10 WTH?? Had a Whole Foods salad for dinner and estimated the calories at 700+ but last night I was so hungry had half bag of Lara balls and some chicken. I think I over estimated the salad.
ETA: Fitbit App just updated and it now says 19,874... Thats good don't feel so bad about the Lara balls.

9/26 - 158.1 Lowest weight in years!!! Years! (Down 65lbs) Picked up SO late last night so I'm gonna try and stay stable. He doesn't know how long he will be home and it could be a few weeks, which is fantastic..... BUT my calorie count may suffer. I'll see what I can do. Found out that our Grandaughter will be born on the 3rd, So excited. But she is breeched and daughter is distraught and upset/worried about a ceasarean.

9/20 : 196.6 hey good number to start this round...hoping not to bounce around too much

9/21: 197.6 Yesterday was a bad day for me. I binged on almost everything in sight. And idk why....I was just weak. So was very happy to see this number this AM. But tbh i obsessed over my weight all day and I'm worried I may be slipping into a bad cycle. . I literally stepped on the scale like 10 times...I ran todayfor 30 mins...I don't run ever....And Then worked out for an hour. *sigh* I know this isn't good for me.

9/21: 197.2 got a good workout in this morning.....then ate all my calories back in Taco Bell! Oops tommorow should be interesting

9/22: 198.6 because salt, alcohol, TOM, and not enough water

9/23: got a good workout today, weighed myself but forgot to write it down.

9/24: didn't work out today. Tried to avoid the scale

I had bounced up a little toward the end of R16, so this is actually back down a pound. :-)

9/21 - 151.8
Hit most of my goals - a little off on patience. ;-)

9/22 - 151.9
I'm hitting my goals, so I know it's water. At least it doesn't look so bad with the moving average!

9/23 - 152.1
Oopsie. My hubby is out of town and I went on a Triscuit binge last night, so I'm up 2 pounds this morning. I know this is not fat, but still...I haven't done that in a very long time - not sure what got into me. Anyway, off to the store for lean protein and veggies. I'm also cutting my calories to 1680, since I've been pretty much maintaining at 1800-1900. Here's to a better day!

9/24 - 152.3
Still paying for my Fri night binge, but I was back on track yesterday and will stay there today. Tomorrow is another day!

9/25 - 152.3
Sigh. I'm eating at calorie/macro goals but didn't get my walk yesterday. Still, I thought I'd drop a little. Off for a long walk now. I keep reminding myself that there's always a time lag, and the numbers will improve.

9/26 - 152.1
Amazing how easy it is to add, how difficult to subtract. I'm focusing on just eating well and walking. The weight will go. Is this the Universe telling me to work on my patience muscle?

Day/Weight/Comment
9/20 - 193.3. 2 days of good exercise, eating the right number of calories and drinking plenty of fluids
9/21 - 193.1 Had a good day yesterday. Let's keep it up. Really had to work to get 10K steps recorded; I went to work with my fitbit left behind on the bathroom windowsill.

9/22 - 191.6 I love the woosh. And jogging. And rotisserie chicken with asparagus after jogging. Feeling a little giddy obviously. Hope the rest of YOUR day goes as well as my weigh in!
9/23 - 191.8 This is a totally good number. Let's see the number tomorrow. I just ate lunch at Panera with some girlfriends and had a lovely time. Counted everything, but I have no idea how much sodium is in the food. I seem to be sodium sensitive in relation to fluid retention.
9/24 - 191.6

Office day yesterday with a nice lunch break. Had a lovely T-bone last night and I limited myself to only 4 ounces. Gave the dog my fat trim. Now I have lots of delicious leftovers available. back in the office today. No days off this week for me.
9/25 - 193.6 Ugh. Way more carbs than usual. Too much sitting. Lots of factors. Hopefully this is the temp swing - not the 191 days before. Stay diligent.

9/26 - 192.2 I like the down days.

Was a little light on the calories yesterday. Walked earlier than usual and the heat killed my appetite for dinner.

Did you tell us more about this kitchen sink explosion and I just missed it? Such an interesting comment.

9/25 - 214.6 - Ah, there's the uptick I knew was coming. At least it should come back down pretty soon. 213.2 - The mistake snack finally, uh, left my system almost immediately *after* my initial weigh-in. Finally, the recovery process really starts.
