Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 50

deepwoodslady · August 2018

8/18 262.4 I was having difficulty getting my old scale to work so we just bought a new scale. Bad news the new scale is weighing me much heavier. So I will be readjusting my weight up

. Disillusioning but when all is said and done I would rather have my true weight and know when I lose I am really losing. My old one got me through losing 40 lbs and gaining it back when I went back to full time work and commute. So really don't know what to say for my last 2 rounds. Can't tell whether I was losing or not. The good new is that I need a scale and to weigh daily and now I have one and can do that.

You did the right thing by replacing an older unreliable scale. I know it feels discouraging but I agree with you about how you'd rather know when you are losing weight. It's a fresh start. Move forward with strength and pride. You are going to do just great!

In again. Let’s see if I can work a little harder this round and see better results.

End round 49 - 178.2
Goal round 50 - 176.0.

8/16 -177.8 (-.4 so far) movement in the right direction.

8/17 - 177.6 (-.6 total so far). I certainly dodged a bullet on that weigh in. Had to go to Walmart after work and was soooo hungry...bought and ATE a whole bag of Brachs Bridge Mix. Sooo sooo good! I just have no self control sometimes! Note to self. STAY OUTTA THE STORES!!

8/18 - DNW- but I’ll be back in the morning.

8/16 - 156 - Wow, after all my whining last round, my weight suddenly seems to be moving in the right direction. I have a feeling this won't stick, but it sure is nice to see this number. I haven't seen this weight since 2001.
8/17 - 156.5 - Not too bad of a bounce back. I didn't get all my water in yesterday, so I'll be chugging it today.

In for my 7th Round!

Round 44 End Weight = 165.8 (5.2 lbs lost)
Round 45 End Weight = 164.9 (0.9 lbs lost)
Round 46 End Weight = 159.6 (5.2 lbs lost)
Round 47 End Weight = 157.2 (2.4 lbs lost)
Round 48 End Weight = 155.2 (2.0 lbs lost)
Round 49 End Weight = 151.2 (4.0 lbs lost)

Stats = 5'4 female, age 48
Highest Weight = 172 lbs
Initial Goal Weight = 139 lbs (last weighed this is 2013)
Ultimate Goal Weight = 129 lbs (last weighed this in 2011)

Round 50 Goal: to be out of the 150's and into the 140's
Exercise Plan = The Betty Rocker 90 Day Challenge (in weeks 5-6 of 12), run outside 3-4 times a week, get 8,000-10,000 steps/day
Nutrition Plan = Continue to limit gluten, dairy, sugar, diet soda, alcohol & eat non-processed foods, protein/fruit/veg at every meal, complex carbs at breakfast and post workout meal, drink plenty of water.

8/16 = 151.2 (no change from yesterday) Yesterday was a rest day in my 90 day challenge, so I just went for a short run. I ate okay but still low on my calories, I need to get to the grocery store and do some meal prep! I'm missing my daughter, who is still away, but I'm very proud of myself that I have been able to enjoy this alone time and not worry about her like I was afraid I would. It helps that I'm getting daily pictures of her doing fun things and she has a happy, relaxed smile in each one. Today, I've got my day 28 workout to do & I want to get in a short run as well and then lots of house cleaning & laundry to do. I wish everyone a great start to round 50, this is a great challenge to be a part of! "What you do today, can improve all your tomorrows."

8/17 = 151.2 (no change from yesterday) 3rd day in a row at this weight, but I had a big loss last round, so a bit of a slow down is to be expected. I completed the 1st month of my 90 day challenge yesterday and am scheduled to start the 2nd month today but my body is rebelling. It's giving me all the nopes in regards to working out today. I'm going to take today and tomorrow off and start the 2nd month exercises on Sunday. My fitness group that I am a part of has a saying...."all or something", so I am allowing myself to listen to my body and pick this up next week. Have a great weekend everyone!

8/18 = 151.5 (up .3 from yesterday) I spent last night at my sister's & I didn't have my scale with me this morning, so I used hers, so this may or may not be a real "gain". There is no reason for it, so it doesn't bother me. Today was my 2nd rest day and I was still not feeling 100% when I woke up. I finally went to the grocery store and I'm prepped to have my nutrition back on point tomorrow when I re-start up again with my workouts. I'm feeling better after dinner tonight of beef tenderloin, broccoli, and rice, thinking maybe my iron was low. I'm going to start back up with multi-vitamins this week, I've gotten out of the habit and need to better with this.

A good day. Tracked everything, made good choices with my lunch compared to what I would normally get. Was mindful with my eating and talked to a friend of mine who is a big source of support. Planning my meals for tomorrow so I don't get tempted at work!
8/17 : no weigh in
Good day overall where my food is concerned. Realised it was TOTM today (ugh) but stayed away from all temptations! I sometimes forget I'm doing this properly so nearly have a lapse in memory and head to the snacks! So far so good though. Day 4 of healthy eating completed.. feeling grateful!
8/18 no weigh in
Stayed on track and stayed mindful! Feel bloated and gross but hoping it will pass soon. day 5 rocked and I even drank a lot more water than I usually do!

8/16 85.6kg (+0.1kg) That's really fine after a 7 ounce lost overnight! I'm thinking of slowing down the weightloss, since I don't need to loose too much more weight (about 6kg/13lbs). On the other side, things go well and it isn't very hard on me to eat less. So not sure yet. I'm leaving in 4 weeks on a 3 week trip to Botswana and Namibia in Africa. Maybe I'll just continue till then the way I do now and slow down after the my vacation.... And how knows...... maybe I just don't wanna stop at 79 kilo's

8/17 85.9kg (+0.3kg) Went out on a lovely 5 course surpirse- dinner with my hubbie!
8/18 85.7kg (-0.2kg) The dog is back in the house, my steps per day goes up

16/08: 210.0 lbs … hotel scales. So it seems I’ve put on a bit during the road trip
17/08: 208.4 lbs … last morning at the hotel … final leg this afternoon.
18/08: 207.8 lbs … first weigh in back home → not a disaster! Overall gain of 2 lbs in 2 weeks
19/08: 207.2 lbs … getting better … Keep going DOWN please!

20/08: *want to see a downward trend*

23/08:
24/08:
25/08:

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
8/16 - 256...did fairly well yesterday, stayed just under calories and had a good amount of water. Only went for one small walk though. I'm not good in heat and it was hot and humid here..my body was feeling extra heavy and tired because of it. I had a huge craving for ice cream before bed but managed to keep myself from having it...yay! Lol
8/17 - 257.2...was not able to keep from having my cravings yesterday. Went quite a bit over in calories and had a lot of salty and sweet. TOM came around though so the cravings make sense. No exercise at all yesterday either, it was just too hot and humid, and my little guy has the flu so it was a lazy day. Back on track again today though.
8/18 - 256...did water fitness in the morning and weight training and cardio at night. Ate all of my calories plus about 1/2 of my exercise ones.
8/19 - 256...bad day yesterday. I've gotten my sons cold and I used it as an excuse to eat everything in sight. I'm starting to feel like a broken record...good day/bad day/good day/bad day. I wanted to be out of the 250's by the end of this round or at least the end of the month but if I keep doing this that will never happen
