Days without binge eating: 27

tishawj · February 2018

Here we go again! Another 10 days. I love the accountability of this group and challenge, everyone is so motivating and supportive! Wouldn't be where I am without all you long term 10 dayers....looking forward to getting to know the new ones

SW - 182.4 - March 2017
original GW - was 145- met this target in October
new GW - 140

I was maintaining a 143ish average nicely up until Christmas and my crazy gift show season in January and things have crept up to about 145. It could be worse so I'm not stressing over it but I know I've lost some fitness over the last month and a half and want to get back in control of things. I will start back into my cardio and strength routine and daily calorie logging this round...I've been a bit slack as of late. I would like to get under 140 slowly over the next couple of months so I won't be to aggressive with my calorie deficit.

1/27 - 145.0 - coming in from round 29 with a rolling 7 day avg of 145.5

01/28 - 144.2 - feeling a bit run down this morning...will get out for a walk with the dog and some housework today...nice to see it under 145 though.
01/29 - 146.4 - Bleh!! Did not eat well yesterday and I can feel the bloat...back to tracking and logging today.
01/30 - 146.2 - took the dog for a 3.5km walk yesterday morning and did a full kettlebell work out after dinner...muscles are a bit tight today...
01/31 - 144.6 - knew this would be down...I was "flushing" the water weight what seemed like every half hour yesterday. Hit the elliptical and did an express kettlebell work out...going to take a break from the weights today and just bundle up and take the dog for a good walk this morning.
02/01 - 145.2 - Meh...a few too many carbs yesterday...

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 / 285.2 I am not drinking enough water! Currently it is 1 degree outside. Dehydration is Real!
01/29 / 284.6 I went to lunch with a friend yesterday and was afraid to eat! Turns out if I’d eaten everything I ordered, I still would have been under my goal. Not everything had a calorie count provided, and I had to wait to log it in until I had my laptop. Thanks to the fantastic MFP database, all items had counts!
01/30 / 285.0 I was under my calories, but I struggled to get my water in yesterday. I am also having TMI issues. Hopefully this passes. (ha!)
01/31 / 285.0 Hmmm. I did go out with friends last night for dinner. Had halibut about 6 ounces, Brussels sprouts. I thought I was doing well, and I was so under calories for the day that I fixed a big snack. Not again.
02/01 / 285.0 Again. I expected this further along this journey. Oh well, I’m working my counts. I’ll drop.

01/29: 216.4 ---Expected this rise. Yesterday was our 4th Sunday family gathering and also a time for everyone to celebrate my son's recent birthday, so it was ALL his favorites. And yes, needless to say, ALL high calorie stuff.

01/30: 216

I was hoping down and not another increase.
01/31: 216 ---Felt really bad yesterday evening so, I laid down early with no workout. Woke up this morning on a cleaning spree. I worked through breakfast but, made myself eat lunch. My fitbit showed I'd been in exercise mode for 8.5 hours. Now I'm exhausted and don't feel like working out, but at least my house is clean.
02/01: 215.4 ???---

I don't know what I weigh. My scale has given me error messages and different weights 5 times ranging from 214.2 to 216.6. So, I'll go with the first number it gave me. Who knows what it will say tomorrow, but I'm comparing scales now online.

01/28 196.7 - @Nikki062181 Thank you for the well wishes for my fella's. Both are feeling much better now. Hopefully we wont be experiencing a round 2, like so many other families have.

Sundays are my rest days. If I get anything over 5,000 steps I've done to much. lol Stats for my day were: 4,739 steps, 3 floors, 2.2 miles ... Total active time: 6 minutes

01/29 196.4 Today was a good! The weather here has been unseasonable warm(ish) so Its been quite a pleasure to walk in. Though truth be told, I am a Polar Bear who loves the snow, I suppose that helps.

lol Stats for the day were: 17,993 steps, 7 floors, 8.34 miles ... Total active time: 131 minutes

01/30 196. Today was a good day. Got a lovely 5 mile walk in and started lifting again.

I have every expectation of the scale showing much higher in the morning, because I barely made it up the stairs to bed. It was a good lift day of mostly compound lifts. Felt great doing, afterwards internally I was Wonder Woman but physically you had to help me out of a chair. LOL

Stats for my day were: 14,245 steps, 17 floors, 6.53 miles ... Squats- 3 x 10 @40 lbs, Squatted pull downs- 3 x 10 @44 lbs, Bent over Tri-kick backs- 3 x 5@5 lbs, Shrugs-3 x 10@30 lbs, Leg kick-backs 3 x 30 , Calf raises- 3 x 50 ... Total active minutes: 125 minutes

01/31 198.4 If I thought I was sore yesterday, it was nothing NOTHING compared to today! OMGoodness Every action brought a new ouch or ache. Compound lifts are my friend even if they do pretend to hate me. lol

02/01 198. Man I was in a foul mood yesterday. Edgy, irritable, and craving carbs. Missed my walk. (Dog got his though.) I'm glad feelings are fleeting because that is not a place I would want to be at for long. Stayed well within my normal cals, even came in slightly under. Yes, yes brown food tastes good but colorful food is like a party in yer mouth! Tomorrow I am going to color my world!

Stats for the day were: 10,658 steps, 3 floors, 4.94 miles ... Total active time: 68 minutes

@quiltingjaine I’ve done it 2 times before for 1-2minths. I enjoy it and the way I feel body and souls wise while on it. Today, I had 2 protein bars so—missed my low carb goal. Yet successfully didn’t cane. Into a bowl of chocolates!

Chocolate calls to me too!
Have you tried using cocoa powder? It’s only 20cal a tablespoon. For a while I was making lots of hot chocolate with 40cal per cup almond milk and cocoa powder. A big mug of it is under 100calories if you use no calorie sweetener (or leave it unsweetened like I do).

01/28 - 97.8 Ate within calorie limit, but as is the case with every weekend, I'm not as strict on sodium intake
01/29 - 99.4 - Yikes! The salt I'm sure, but not just - yesterday was a hard day resisting food
01/30 - 99 - From what I've learned from these past challenges is that it generally takes 3 days to undo salt damage for me. The only difference food wise is that I've increased my healthy fats - i'm flirting with the idea of a keto diet but since I know absolutely nothing about it, im doing research first. Tips and pointers appreciated though01/31 - 98.6 - Soooo slow coming back down. I really cannot let my guard down on weekends

Likely be up again tomorrow, I had a big dinner out with all the sodium. But, I hiked and went for a run today so overall it was a good day for progress, it just won't show up on the scale right away, I'm sure.

Initial Goal Weight 65kg
Ultimate Goal Weight 60kg
R30 GW 67.7kg (aiming for 0.5kg again although I think it might be a bit ambitious, I generally lose slowly!)

R30 (2)
01/28 - no access to scales today, also expecting a lot of water weight due to eating out all weekend (very limited food choices), will do what I can to not overeat though!
01/29 - 68.8 - a big jump up, I expected it though after a weekend of limited food options, hopefully just water weight and will come off in the next couple of days
01/30 - 67.8 - followed by a big drop, mostly water from the weekend I think. Also didn't eat much yesterday as I was ill so I expect this will rebound back up a bit.
01/31 - 68.2 - back up a bit, ate late last night and got up and weighed early. So far no change this round!
02/01 - 68.3 - ate at maintenance yesterday, as well as having achy muscles from a PT session - trainer upped all my weights. Hopefully won't creep too much higher!
02/02 - 68.7 - been eating a lot of carby food this week, will try to eat less of it today and see what happens. Cals have been at or slightly above maintenance so need a few good days to finish the round. Difficult because we're eating out tonight and tomorrow

** Round 30 **
Female, 5'5"
Starting Weight: 82.3 kg (181.44 lbs)
Goal Weight: 64 kg (141.1 lbs)

I’ve just seen this thread and hopefully this will motivate me a little more! My heart is in it but not sure I am doing enough? Just had a baby 6 months ago and I am desperate to get back to my pre-baby weight! I thought I ate healthy throughout it all but obviously not! Eek! Clearly all the pregnancy yoga and swimming did more damage than good! Ha!

My GW for this round: 81 kg; or 178 lbs (not sure if that’s realistic? But what the hell let’s give it a whirl!)

Can I work in kg?!

01/28 * 82.3 kg * hadn’t seen the thread, probably somewhere eating bread (eek!)
01/29 * 82.3 kg * Did a low intensity cardio workout, although I am able to train a little more now since having the little one, I still am not fit enough to hit a high intensity training session yet. (Slowly but surely!) Overall, including exercise, consumed under daily calorie allowance.
01/30 * 81.9 kg * I always weigh myself in the mornings so here we go. Positive, must be my low intensity workout! Ha out today, must resist temptation to grab a coffee!
01/31 * 81.5 kg * yaaaaas! Serious calorie controlling yesterday and took the dog for a walk. Feel like today’s going to be one of those hungry days.. eek! Today’s going to be my gym night so I need to smash it to keep up the momentum!
02/01 * 81.3 kg * feeling like an absolute legend!! Treated myself to a few carbs yesterday as my body needed it but it pushed out a steady pace workout last night which made it all the more worth it!
02/02 * 80.9 kg * okay now I just feel like I am making things up! This is my best week yet.. how? Probably helps that it’s an early morning weighing! Had lunch at a friends and was convinced I had ruined the momentum. Maybe it will hit in a few days? Weather was horrifying last night so let the husband take out the pup and treated myself to a full on rest day.
