JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - Round 28

  • Of course I'm in for this next round. I'll be going back to work on Monday after two weeks off for the holiday.

    Start Weight: 202 lbs
    Finished Round 27 at 161.8 lbs.
    Round 28: 161.6 lbs.
    GW: 160.6 lbs.
    UGW: 125 lbs.

    01/08: 161.6 I lost 2 oz in 4 days even with biking. That's okay though. A loss is a loss, and I'll take it. My weight loss is starting to slow down now. On the bright side, I went from a size 18 to a size 12 in pants. :)
    01/09: 162.2 So, it was my first day back to work since Christmas break, and I am off for the rest of the week. This lady has the flu. :(
    01/10: 161.6 Happy Birthday to everyone that I saw is having one this week. :) I'm hanging in, but feel blah.
    01/11: 160.4 So, I don't know if I mentioned this, but my oldest son started middle school last year. He has been bullied non-stop for a year and a half. By bullied, I mean punched, kicked, lunch stolen and dumped out, slammed into lockers so his braces broke, sax stomped on 6 different times by the same kid and broke, and people telling him that they hoped his Grandma with cancer died, which you all know she did pass before Thanksgiving. The HUGE decision I made last week was whether or not to transfer him. Well, my husband and I decided to, and the last 3 days I haven't seen a single tear. He has been happy. I am grateful and hope it stays the course. On another note, I still hurt everywhere and feel not so hot, but my number dropped. That was with me hitting my calories right on the nose, and drinking 52 oz of liquid despite being sick.

    Happy to hear that your son has had good days and that they continue....the bullies that get by with treating other humans like dirt must really hate themselves that they have to hurt other people to make themselves feel better. Parents feel the pain as much as the child and even more so because we also don't always have the correct way to make it better and many times the schools turn a blind eye to it and can't "catch it".
    Hope you get to feeling better.

    My son also started 6th grade this year. What a tough transition! I'm glad your son is happier now after the transfer.

    1/8 - 177.6 Packed my lunch instead of buying from the cafeteria
    1/9 - 175.9 Got most of my water in. Baked chicken and bok choy for dinner.
    1/10 - 173.6 Hit 10,000 steps by day's end. Didn' get all my water in but there's always tomorrow
    1/11 - 171.8
    1/12 – 172.6 Up .8. Not surprising. Had a Chicken quesadilla with salsa and sour cream for lunch. Meant
    to only eat half. Next thing I knew the whole thing was "in my belly". Date night tonight
    with hubby. Need to really watch what I eat (and drink).

    Historical SW (January 2017): 193
    Recent SW: 187.6 (Sunday after Thanksgiving)
    Challenge SW: 181.8
    R25 AVE = 180.36
    R26 (Christmas!) AVE = 179.23
    R27 AVE = 176.1 (End weight = 174.4)
    R28 SW = 173.6
    Goal for this round: I expect things to slow down this time since I can't ride my bike every day now that vacation is over, so I'm going with 171 as my goal.

    Age 60, 5'4" [lost 1/2" somewhere, not the measurement I wanted to lose]
    SW 195 [joined MFP Nov 2015, lost 9.5# & got serious Jan 2017]
    1st Goal 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    2nd Goal 145 = normal BMI
    UGW Range 140 - 145

    My scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Comments reflect prior day. Previous round EW 159.0 LW 159.0
    R20 SW 166.0 10/20/17 (my round 1)
    R20 EW 166.5 LW 164.5

    R22 EW 162.0 LW 162.0
    R23 EW 162.0 LW 162.0 = included parade day & Thanksgiving (no food/drink logged)
    R24 EW 159.5 LW 159.5 = walked Jingle Bell 5K in 44:37 & pace 14:22 / first time in 10 years my weight is 1-5-anything!
    R25 EW 160.0 LW 158.0
    R26 EW 161.0 LW 157.5 = included Christmas (no food/drink logged) & several gatherings
    R27 EW 159.0 LW 159.0 = included New Year's Eve (no food/drink logged)
    Round 27 (previous round)
    12/29: 159.5 Net calories red & 12c water. Fitbit 9,124 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 34 floors. Getting back into my groove.
    12/30: 159.0 Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 51:07. Fitbit 13,675 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 25 floors. Registered for my third Badger State Brewing 10K (3/31).
    12/31: 161.0 Got into leftover Christmas goodies. 12c water. Walked 3 mi. treadmill / 50:31. Fitbit 12,434 steps, 250+ steps 914 hours & 11 floors.
    01/01: 162.5 Expected: New Year's Eve splurged with hubby on special treats all evening long and did not log food or beverages. I'm sure net calories were horrendously red. Totally worth it! :p And now it's out of my system. :D
    01/02: 163.0 Very sedentary day: car round trip 3 1/2 hours & niece's bday party, plus my lower back hurting. Net calories red & 10c water.
    01/03: 162.0 No treadmill since lower back still hurting. Net calories red 18, sodium & sugar both green, 14c water. Fitbit 7,577 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 30 floors.
    01/04: 161.5 Tried an easy walk on treadmill 2 miles / 37:42, then my back stiffened up again. Reminder to self: don't overdo. Net calories, sodium & sugar (fresh orange juice & Activia yogurt) red but not horrible. 14c water. Fitbit 12,659 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 35 floors.
    01/05: 159.5 Little surprised, it was food day at work for coworker with Christmas bday, but I was very picky about what I ate & had very small portions, ate healthy rest of day. Guestimated & logged best I could. 13c water (not sure, kinda lost count). Not doing treadmill until my back doesn't twinge when I wake up, almost there! Fitbit 8,453 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 29 floors.
    01/06: 159.0 Another surprise since I binged a little on mixed nuts in evening, but maybe 16c water helped. No treadmill, but lots stairs breaks at work. Fitbit 7,851 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours, 26 floors. Massage in evening did wonders for my lower back.
    01/07: 159.0 Finally walked on treadmill again, didn't push & felt great. 3 miles / 54:13. Fitbit 10,574 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours (lazy Sat.) & 29 floors. Net calories & sodium green, sugar red (fresh oj & chocolate peanut butter cup ice cream) & 14c water. Not bad round, considering. Happy to end 1-5-anything.

    01/08: 159.5 Net calories, sodium & sugar all red...ack! 14c water. Fitbit 8,010 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 16 floors.
    01/09: 159.5 Net calories & sodium green, sugar red (some leftover Christmas goodies) & 15c water. Walked treadmill 3 miles before work / 51:06. Fitbit 15,090 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 41 floors.
    01/10: 159.0 Net calories & sugar green (barely for both), sodium red but not horrible & 14c water. Walked treadmill 3 miles before work / 51:53. Fitbit 13,010 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 29 floors.
    01/11: 158.5 Happy hour after work and, surprise! Salad appealed...think my body is sick of rich, high cal foods since Christmas. Didn't even change my mind when friends ordered perch plate with french fries, which I love. Enjoyed 1 pint beer. Not sure of log accuracy / net calories red 22 & 15c water. Treadmill 3 miles before work / 50:13. Fitbit 13,015 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom! 3 days in a row!) & 34 floors.
    01/12: 158.5 Net calories, sodium & sugar all red...ack! At least fiber was good & 15 c water. Active evening packing up Christmas decorations and nativities collection, still not done by half. Fitbit 11,451 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 38 floors.
