JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - Round 46

Seeking lower bodyfat%

July is the month that I will assess what foods I can eat, once in a whi!e, outside of keto. I do not expect any loss of weight. If I eat something that makes me gain or not feel well, then "OFF WITH ITS HEAD! Lol, no, but definitely off of my foods list.

My name is Tish.

Day/Weight/Comment

•7/7 - 192.2 :bigsmile:
•7/8 - 192.6 - I guess I'll be seeing every increment of 192 this challenge. Although, after what I ate today, I expect to see up to 194. I enjoyed my son's Belgian waffles again today. I planned for 2 and thats what I ate at a cost of over 130 grams of carbs, 110 net carbs. EGADS!

•7/9 - 192 - Very early weigh in. Ended up being 135g carbs / 112g net after eating some green beans for dinner.

I'm having such a hard time on the weekends. We have people-over every weekend. I just haven't been focusing on me. Its like my brain turns to mush. But, this morning, I threw out all the junk food, and gave away all the candy. This should help a bit.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07- 231.4 Pleasantly surprised I’m holding steady from yesterday. NSV- Did great at the wedding. Was careful how much I ate for dinner and ate enough of the cake to appreciate the taste of it. Saw an acquaintance I hadn’t seen in 2 months and she told me I was looking good. She’s very PC so she wouldn’t come straight out and say “You’ve lost some weight.” Nice way to start the round.
7/08- 231.8 No explanation for the bump except maybe some GI issues. Good food day yesterday. Family event today = loads of food. Aiming for good food choices.
7/09- 232.4 my scale seems to like this number. Disheartened that the numbers are going the wrong way. I did everything I was supposed to do this weekend. I was especially proud since I had two social events and I felt I did well at both.

7/07:--174.4 I didn't expect this to stick around!
7/08:--174.8 Weighed in this morning but almost forgot to log it!
7/09:--173.8 Wasn't expecting to see this at all! It's probably a one-off because I wasn't feeling 100% yesterday and ended up under-eating.

Female, 42, 5’6”

7/7: 158.0- I’m definitely up but it’s o.k. I’m back home after a 2 1/2 week vacation. I have a few more weeks before I return to teaching to get everything in order. Bye bye sugar- it’s been fun but you have to go!

7/8: 157.2- Feeling so much better already not filling my body with vacation food garbage! Sometimes it’s motivational to have a few splurge days to help me realize how much better I can feel.

7/9: 157.8- Too much sodium yesterday. Felt so good & on track yesterday morning, now I’m just frustrated. I have literally been on this 150’s hamster wheel for my entire adult life. In my 20’s, just under or slightly over 150. 30’s, low to mid 150’s. 40’s, mid to high 150’s. A few pounds here, a few pounds there but I have never made any ACTUAL progress. The daily weighing is putting a spotlight on it. Gakk! Ok, pity party over. Back to it.

Day/Weight/Comment

7/07: Weight = 164.5 (down .4 from yesterday) Happy to see the scale moving in the right direction to start off this challenge! Yesterday was a good day - was able to squeeze in a short run between thunderstorms and completed day 19 of my exercise challenge which was a Posterior Chain workout (Thigh Jacks, Elevated Bridge Lifts, Triceps Dips, Swimmers, Single Leg Tabletops, 3-Way Calf Raises). So what I learned yesterday, is that I have SUPER weak back muscles. I've found in past workouts that doing Supermans are hard for me but the Swimmer's yesterday showed me just how weak my back is. Swimmers = lie on your stomach with your arms and legs fully extended - lift your arms and legs up and begin to paddle, alternating right leg, left arm up, then left leg, right arm like a swimmer, keep your lower back engaged for 45 seconds x 3. So that's something I definitely need to work on. On to day 20 today which is Cardio Ladders. I hope everyone has a great start to their weekend and to this challenge

7/08: Weight = 162.3 (down 2.2 from yesterday). I KNOW this is not a real loss. Slept in this morning and weighed-in super late so that will account for this low number. I don't expect this to be my weight tomorrow but as long as it is below 164.5 tomorrow, I'll be good. Yesterday I was below calories, on target with macros and completed my day 20 exercises. Around 10 p.m. I found myself doing a few walking laps of my house to get my Fitbit to 10,000 steps - so silly, but hey, it is making me move more. It's a beautiful day here today, and not hot or humid like last week, so going to go enjoy a nice run and then get my day 21 challenge workout. Probably grilling out tonight, love lazy summer days!

7/09: Weight = 162.3 Didn't expect this number to stick around, very surprised but happy! I still won't believe this is a real loss for another day or two. Yesterday was the last day of the break in the heat wave, going back up this week, so I enjoyed being outside and had a great run and then we cooked out last night. Husband cooked a flank steak, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers on the grill and he and our daughter had fajitas and I skipped the tortilla and had mine on top of a brown rice/quinoa grain salad, delicious! I completed day 21 of my exercise challenge which was all about back strengthening, which I need. Capped of the evening watching the Tour de France (so addicted to this every summer), so all in all a nice relaxing weekend. My daughter has extended school year (just 3 days a week during July only) starting this week and we live relatively close to where it is being held, so I'll be walking her there for drop off and walk back for pick-up, so should be adding in some extra calorie burn for the next month. Have a great start to your week, everyone!

07/06 - 196.2 *R45 EW
07/07 - Saturday - 198.0 ouch. Feeling bloated and slow and tired. All this sugar and salt has taken its toll on me and I'm ready to eat better today. I ate some breakfast and made lunch and plan to bring snacks to a friend's this afternoon. Also got a big water bottle. Life is hectic right now but I'm happy in each moment while still looking forward to the future.
07/08 - Sunday - 197.2 - quick check in. going to look at a house. another crazy day and I'm grateful I can keep up!
07/09 - Monday - 197.0 - So we put in an offer on the house we looked at yesterday. Super exciting! Fingers crossed all day long to see if they accept. And the washing machine we were going to pick up was a bust. The day was nothing like I planned and we ate pizza for dinner - oh well! Today is well planned at this point - so we'll see how it goes This is a new week and I plan to get back to the basics - last week went a little off the rails, and I've got lots of things upcoming that could be excuses. I also realized I tend to go crazy in July and December - so I'm giving myself some grace rather than beating myself up for it and moving forward with baby steps! DH and I were talking this morning and realized we've made some huge changes in the past 3 years - quit drinking, quit smoking, started saving for a house, stopped going out every weekend. We made all those changes slowly, but deliberately. Reminding myself I AM CAPABLE if I just keep swimming.
