Round 47- SW 158 EW 152.5 (-5.5lbs)
Round 48. In for my second time and loving the 10-day challenge. It's inspiring to see everyone here with many rounds completed and others who are just getting started like me.
Round 48 goals: 10,000 steps per day. In bed by 11 pm.
7/27- 152.5 - 13,000 steps, plus some extra exercise. Made time for breakfast and remembered to pack a healthy lunch.
7/28 -152 - 12,000 steps. Attended a wedding today. The food was not my style, so no trouble to not overindulge. Nearly two weeks of consistent exercise has sure made me feel better.
7/29 - 152.5 - 13,000 steps - Forgot to post.
7/30 - 153.5 - 15,000 steps. Prosecco and pizza and pasta, oh my. No surprise to see today's number. Got a nice little hike in with the family. It was our puppy's first hike and he was surprisingly well behaved! The weather is warm here (for the Pacific Northwest) and I'm glad to be back in my air conditioned office today. A study just came out that said that Seattle is the least air conditioned metropolitan city in the US. So when it's 80 degrees outside, there's no escape - it's also 80 degrees inside. I kind of just melt into my couch on hot weekends and don't want to move at all.

@deepwoodslady, I've made the jalapeno poppers before. They are good, but I have never been a fan of cream cheese by itself. I think if I blend it with one or two different grated hard cheeses and added a lot more spicy heat I would like them more. I also need a hotter, hot pepper! I eat jalapenos all the time and they seem like a sweet pepper to me I'll have to experiment2

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27- 195.0- Good start. Let's keep going! No more eating out. I'm going to plan out everything I'm going to eat tomorrow and follow through since I'm the one making food.
7/28- 194.8- I'm glad it's still going in the right direction. Still doing well. My grandparents are coming over tomorrow and staying for a week so I don't know how that's going to affect this but it shouldn't too much to be honest. We'll see. Still going to stay under.
7/29- 195.0- I drank water before this weigh-in on accident so maybe I'm the same as before? Lol can't be for sure.
7/30- No weigh in. Unfortunately, I didn't have access to my scale since my grandparents are in my room. I'll go take my scale and take it with me to the basement where I'm staying. I might update with a weigh-in later today but otherwise I will just do it tomorrow.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27: 178.8. I won’t lie, this was a late weigh-in, but I’m taking it. I’m still playing nutritional roulette. Why? I know how critical it is for me to get my weight down and my nutrition on point. I’m in my 50s and I can’t afford to keep eating like a 11-year-old let loose in a junk food store. Today, for example, I had a banana in the morning, nothing all day and then a jam sandwich, diet coke and a piece of chocolate that my son bought for me. I’m way low on calories, but not given my body one bit of nutrition. No point in whining though. I’ll just start over right now.
7/28: Didn't weigh in.
7/30: 178.4
7/29: 178.8. Super lazy weekend. Binge watched an entire two seasons of Queen of the South. I was so absorbed my accent changed to Southern and I could swear like a trooper in Spanish. Feels like I spent the weekend in Mexico and Texas. That being said, no exercise, no effort to eat well, so up we go!!

@SheilaBoneham, Its interesting to me that the anti-inflammatory diet that you are going to start includes whole grains. Any grains cause inflammation in my body. I don't think that I have come across this particular cleanse in my Internet search's and readings. Good luck. I hope it's beneficial to you.
@tiabirdie56 Yes, it includes some very limited whole grains (as does Dr. Andrew Weil's anti-inflammatory diet), but no bread/yeast. I'm not a huge fan of cleanses, but a friend of mine did this one and cleared up an inflammation that was causing a nasty rash on her face, so I thought I'd try it. Now I'm actually comparing it to Weil's program and thinking of using that approach instead - his is not a cleanse but a long-term approach to eating. Not too different from my regular diet, except I do eat more milk (yogurt and kefir) and chicken/occasional beef or pork). I'm also being referred to a rheumatologist because of the inflammation, so I'm a tad stressed. The only thing keeping me from indulging in cake or cookie or pecan braid is knowing how bad sugar is for inflammation!

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27--No weigh in. Well. When I said this round would be hard, this wasn't what I had in mind...I went to the dermatologist Thursday afternoon to address a weird burning sensation in my upper arm. Turns out I am likely in the beginning stages of shingles(!). I am a bit young to get shingles (36) although you can really get them at any age if you've had chicken pox. The doctor writes me a note and tells me not to go back to work, go home, get in bed, and stay there all weekend. Between the extensive rest and the prescription for Valtrex, we are hoping we can stop it in its tracks. So that's what I've done. I've been in bed since Thursday afternoon. It's boring and I keep thinking about the things I had planned to do this weekend. DH reminds me that stress is one of the things that leads to shingles and I need to stop worrying about household chores because they don't matter. He has been bringing me meals in bed and I am not tracking or logging anything.
7/28--177.0 Decided to visit the scale on my way to soaking in a nice Epsom salt bath; this cheered my mood. I would have expected worse. Shingles pain, by the way, is terrible, and I am now an advocate for everybody getting the shingles vaccine. It's recommended if you're over the age of 50. I did some research on diet changes that can help/hurt a case of the shingles. I have added more chicken, orange juice, and bananas to my diet, and am avoiding chocolate, caffeine, sugar, and processed carbs. So far I don't have any blisters, although my arm is very sensitive and painful. No exercise, just bed rest. I feel like this explains a lot about the past week--why I have been feeling tired and unmotivated. These can be the very first signs of shingles. Here I was beating myself up thinking I need to get back with the program, when really I had this virus starting to attack my body.
7/29--176.6 Wow, that was a needed boost. Today feeling better and I have every intention of going back to work tomorrow, we'll see...
7/30--178.0 Expected this.

About me: 61, 5'7", in maintenance since March this year. Serial loser and regainer of 20 and determined not to slide back up this time.
Round 47 report: Rethinking my goals at this time. My range was 125-130; I am now at the bottom end and still happy to lose slowly; I don't want to exceed 127 by much unless it's serious muscle gain. Some nice hard cardio last week in spite of the muggy gym.
Round 48 GOAL = Maintain weight 121-127, get some nice workouts in.
7/27 - 125.0 - yesterday feeling meh and came home from work. At maintenance calories, no workout.
7/28 - 126.6 - yesterday (Friday) wildfires started near our valley, called in to work at 10PM for a few hours, home at 1PM. Did get 10K steps in but food wise an extreme day.
7/29 - 126.6 - yesterday (Saturday) tired and stressy, food choices were just don't care tbh
7/30 - 128.4 - yesterday (Sunday) we took 2 separate power outages totaling 8 hours, work issues and concern about friends caused anxiety, food choices again were do not care and comfort me please. I did not log the past several days. I am going to draw a line and log now starting today.
Ironic that the second I decide that my top of range is 127, I go over it.
