Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 48

texasfarmer · August 2018

I’m in. I’ve gone completely out of control! I can’t believe I keep doing this to myself.

SW this round 185.8
Goal this round 180.0 looking for -5.8 this round.

It’s a big goal but my body is just so so so bloated that I think I’ll drop a few pounds easy as long as I push the water. If I can make this happen this round I will make more reasonable goals in the future rounds.

7/27 - 185.8
7/28 - 184.4. (-1.4) so far so good.
7/29 - 182.8 (-3 total so far)
7/30 - 180.8 (-5 total so far)
7/31 - 180.0. (-5.8 total so far) I know it’s just water weight coming off but it’s a good motivator anyway!
8/1 - 178.6 (-7.2 total so far) shocked at the weigh in this morning. I thought I would have a gain as I had a love fest (or feast) with half a package of S’more wafer cookies. I did run just over 3 miles in this Texas heat after work yesterday so who knows. Our bodies are funny things that react in ways we don’t expect at times.

tlgale · August 2018

I'm late but I'm in! I did a round at the beginning of July but have been on holiday since. Holidays ended yesterday and I have to get back on track starting today. I swam pretty much every day while away but ate and drank way to much, so I managed to gain a few pounds

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27 - holiday
7/28 - holiday
7/29 - 257.4
7/30 - 257....no exercise and not great eating yesterday...still off schedule with the 4 1/2 hrs time difference. I did drink quite a bit of water though, which is why I think I have a little loss today.
7/31 - 257...not a good day yesterday so I'm happy to not see a gain..yet.
8/01 - 258...another bad day of eating too much and no exercise. My routines are completely off, I'm not able to sleep at night and I can't seem to get back on track. I know I want and need to but I just can't seem to get it done

7/27 183.0 what!? I'm glad I continued to work out, it's not easy but I'm willing to continue moving forward
7/28 Out of town
7/29 Out of town
7/30 184.4 it's hard to not fall back into old eating habits on a road trip, this was a quick roadtrip and I did horrible I have to start all over again. My goal to end this week 181.
7/31 184.0 ok so I said I was going to start off this week good, but first I didnt do my morning workout then I ate half of my calories at Starbucks this morning, I surpassed my calories for the day, but at least I worked out. Tomorrow's a new day it will be better

8/1 182.8 nice, let's not scare it away...I ate over my calories but I at least worked out in the afternoon, although I really didnt want too, I pretty much half assed it but now I'm glad I did it. Ok so now I need to loose one more pound by Friday I can do this...I realized I have to start working out a little more, if I want to get to my goal. Morning abs night cardio.

“Overall, during this period, you have lost 2,355 cals (net Calories deficit), which means you should have lost 11oz. Your total Calories intake was 14,632 and your total Calories expended was 16,987 (of which, 3,848 cals were burned from exercise).
According to your weigh-ins, you've gained about 2lb during this time. You've lost about 2.7lb less than expected.”
Hahahahahaha!!! So I guess I *really* weigh 163.7, which I believe.
Culprit: two salty meals? Many more steps?? More sleep! Not going to worry about it. Still...it is disconcerting when I was so active & brought my food, weighed food, etc, tracked all. I see why folks have a 5-lb maintenance window.
Two planned & tracked restaurant meals which I don’t have normally.
Carrying on!
7/31 166.0 Trend wt: 165.3 Loss/wk: 0.4

Had a bit of a carb pity party last night - all weighed & tracked LOL Not too far over in calories, but Very unlike me. I think I’m back on track today...a great night’s sleep should help me along.
Perspective helps: My wt is down for the month. My exercise was highest yet this month. All is good. Relax. You can do this & will learn from it.

7/27 - 183.6 - Had poor eating day yesterday, managed to stay within goal but barely. My daughter had been in an accident, she is OK but being her Mama I had to go to the hospital and see it with my own eyes to believe her.
7/28 - 184.0 - another unexpected task added on at suopertime. Ended up eating McDonald’s for supper. Still in calorie goal but not part of my plans.
7/29 - 185.2 - Went for a date night on Saturday our first in a long time, so fully enjoyed it. Stayed in maintenance but lots of carbs and sodium
7/30 - 185.2 - Yesterday ate in maintenance as well, very hot and didn't feel like cooking so ate out. Will get back on track today.
7/31 - 185.0 - Had a good day yesterday, even got a walk in.

7/26- went for radiation, cut the lawn( big property), took grandchildren to the park, worked out on treadmill, rest.

7/27-walked, yoga, Completed week 5 radiation. I have a health update when I see the doctor All 5 weeks perfect!

7/28- Did not have a good night sleep last night, I hour, 20 mins during the day.( steroids, one more week and then we can start to cut them back, they are making me super hungry, walking helps.

7/29 Had a great day, slept last night, did a lot of walking 112mins. Goal for next week watching my food portions. Steroids are making it really hard for me, one more week and then I can start to cut them in half.

7/30- Had a great day for walking steps. Went for radiation#6 left, and I had to go to the hospital for EEG to test brain for seizures, but I doubt it because I feel fine. I did to much today.

7/31-I feel fantastic, not one symptom since I started radiation completed 25 treatments, down to the last 5, doctors said I would lose my hair after week 2 or 3 -that did not happen. I think because I drink so much water and when I wake up everyday I have an organic bread with avocado. I have been out walking at least 12,000 steps. I am very fortune.

8/1 Only a couple hours sleep last night. Made my meals for tomorrow. Went walking. Since the weekend my steps have been up. 4 more treatments for Radiation. I can't believe it.

05/07: Goal: 205.x

Looking for a general downward trend. Really focused on my logging, and on clean eating, and MOVING more - which is what I love - it gives me ENERGY!

I am SO SO determined!! I 100% NEED to stay mindful about my daily logging and being mindful about what I eat and drink. I need to get into the HEALTHY BMI band.

This is a long term thing, a few bad days or weeks is something I'm getting better at coping with.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27: 259 up a bit from early in the week but I have been slowly losing; my weight fluctuates alot so we'll see about tomorrow.

7/28 253.6 It may seem like a lot to lose in a day but I was down to 255 earlier in the week. I am staying under my calorie goal but am staying closer to it, I am doing slightly better with water intake, However with a night meeting and after work appointment I ate out a bit more than I like. So I’m hoping to cook at home all this week. Just back from my Saturday morning Aquafit class.

7/29 255.2

7/30 250.8 Went to the Mariner’s game so I am posting late. We beat the Astro’s. I missed Aquafit but walked a bit aroung Safeco Field. Had a training at work which included lunch and then ate at Safeco Fields so we will see how it goes tomorrow.

Age: 28
Height: 164 cm (5'4.5'')
SW (Max weight): 95 kg (209.4 lbs)
GW: 65 kg (143 lbs)

7/27 85 kg (187.3 lbs)
Gained so much weight, I'm upset but still motivated. I woke up early (6.00 am) and walked 3.1 km (4300 steps). The breakfast was good I hope the rest of the day will be good too. Cannot wait to see lower weights...
7/28 84.6 kg (186.5 lbs)
I feel really motivated and strong. I bought a smoothie blender. I'll make healthy and nutritious smoothies rather than junk food anymore. And also yesterday I didn't drink alcohol even I went to a bar. Moreover, I walked 10.2 km

I'm feeling good.
7/29 84.3 kg (185.8 lbs)
Going well... Yesterday I made two delicious smoothies, one of them is kinda desert (banana, soy milk, almonds and nuts and chia seeds, you should try!). I took a little more calories however, I walked 5 km (12000 steps), so the calorie intake was ok.
7/30 84.3 kg (185.8 lbs)
Everything is going well. Yesterday I walked 13400 steps and ate well. I still don't drink alcohol and I'm feeling good about it.
7/31 83.9 kg (184.9 lbs)
This is so fast but I know this is my first week, it's all about that... Yesterday I ate a little more and walked about 8000 steps. But it's ok.
8/01 83.6 kg (184.3 lbs)
After the 6 days, I ate a little dessert. Socializing really makes diet harder. When I go out with someone, I cannot be strict about my diet. However, I walked 15000 steps.
8/02 84 kg (185.1 lbs)
OK... Yesterday I was very stressed and so overate. And also I couldn't sleep, I have a sleep problem because of depression but yesterday I became obsessed with some horrible possibilities and it was worse. Very bad day, I hope today will be better. I'm emotionally unstable, so it is always hard for me to control my diet. I need some stability in my life.

Round 48
SW: 74kg May 2018
UGW: 62kg Oct/Nov 2018
Round 47 EW: 73kg
*Non-digital scales*
7/27 73kg - today is too hot to exercise!
7/28 72.5kg, the needle is definitely in the middle between 70-75 today! Also change of plan and I can go for my run today. The food might still happen, but at least not all day as originally planned
7/29 no scale, the foodie weekend did happen afterall

7/30 74.5kg and i only have myself to blame. I need to stop making excuses every weekend. I want this, so I must make the necessary changes
7/31 73.5kg alright, good day yesterday within cals+half exercise cals and running. Let's keep this up
8/01 72.5kg, yes! Another good day, stayed withon cals, only ate back half my walking cals. Went to a boxing class, which I didn't log, because it was too late to eat afterwards anyway
8/02 72.5kg, i thinks it"s pretty close to 72, but I don't want to call it just yet. Also I have two nights with drinks ahead of me, which might mess this up a gain. I will be mindful and not go crazy.
Maybe it is time for digital scales again?

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.

REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!
