JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 61

tiabirdie56 · December 2018

@quiltingjaine, The fluffy remark made me think of this. Fluffy video clip Lol

@deepwoodslady, Donna mentioned that your friend might be jealous. I thought so too at first, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. When I was much younger, I had an acquaintance tell me I was too skinny. She had lost a lot of weight and everyone complimented her whenever they saw her. Me as well, but I was still way thinner than her. I guess she thought I was stealing her thunder. I wasn't. I could have cared less.

Crept back to JGM10D quietly in Round 60, after intentionally sitting out a number of rounds, because I need the daily accountability that worked before.

12/4 - 131.2 - over maintenance calories yesterday. Really tired plus sugary treats in the evening. Dropping goal calories to the .5 loss goal for this round, and we shall see!

@UTMom81 Should your “recent” SW be Thanksgiving 2017?

Yes!!! My goodness, I'm impressed that you caught that. I hadn't even thought about going back and changing that. I just keep copying and pasting. LOL It's been a great year, though, and I feel as good as I've ever felt. That's saying something since I turn 60 next summer!

@tiabirdie56 Some men do prefer "fluffy" women--like my ex husband. I think it was because he didn't want anyone else to look at me, but it may have been because he wanted me to be like his grandmother. I'll never know, because I'll never ask. Back then, my only fluffy days were when I was pregnant.

Goal for end of 2018: below 70kg (68ish)
UGW: updated 67-63kg (148-139lbs) end of spring 2019
Round goals: treadmill running, yoga, body weight workouts

Tue 12/04 - 71.4kg
This is not great, up 1 kg from yesterday, but I suppose it is the weekend showing - little water, lots of salt and snacks. And last night also turned into a little bit of a binge once again.
Plan for today: food for today weighed and logged, salad and crackers for lunch, fruit snacks. Treadmill after work, healthy dinner with lots of veg and enough to have left over tomorrow. Early night so i get up for yoga in the morning.

Wed 12/05 - 70.8kg
This looks better. Stuck to my plan, went on the treadmill (35mins run and 20mins brisk walk with an incline), had my healthy dinner minus baked potatoes as I burned them, oops. But that meant I had some cals for snacking left over.
I got up to start today with some yoga as planned despite a terribly hot night and disturbed sleep. Had a healthy breakfast, lunch will be a guess as I have a meeting over it, but dinner is ready and waiting for me after the gym. I aim to add another 5mins each to my run and walk.
Have a great day everyone.

@quiltingjaine I only read your question and responses now. I think you should say something to her. Or maybe ask her nicely why she keeps pointing these things out and that you'd be happy to talk her through Keto or your experience if she'd like to know more.

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!

Day/Weight/Comment
12/04: 67.2 - More fluid retention. Everything hurts from training yesterday because I worked really very hard (and threw a couple of people I normally struggle against, so winning!). Cake in the office, but with the number of calories I get extra from judo the cookie and small slice of cake was not a problem. I do love it when things work out well like that. Considering going to a run today, but might leave it for tomorrow and just do some gentle stretches out today as seriously, everything is screaming at me. I really wished I had foam rolled last night. Water was better yesterday, still probably lower than I would've liked, but better than it has been recently.

12/05: 67.5 - Well that's my one day not in deficit sorted for the round. I was hoping to go longer on that but I'll live. I deserve that scale rise. Lazy day yesterday, I think I'm coming down with a cold, however I need to go for a run today (as I didn't get out yesterday) so I'll have to push through and manage. Yesterday would have been fine were it not for all the food that was around, and for some reason, my unhelpful hunger come dinner time causing me to over eat there too. Did well for water during the day, and then didn't drink anything once I got home, not a great situation, but still better than previously. I have a water bottle on my desk at work now so I'm hopeful that'll keep me sipping all day.

04/12 Missed a fair few posts from last round with travelling but have gone back and updated my weights at least. Goals for today are to get my steps in, do some yoga and hit my protein target.

05/12 Missed steps by about 200 but above average for the week so far, I had an early night so didn't have the meal I had planned so protein was well under but I think the rest of the week should make up for it, I have a lot lean meat and fish planned in. Goals for today are to take my vitamins and box the rest of the week's up and to stay in a bit of a deficit again.

12/04= 147.4 Need to drink lots of water today to counteract some salty foods over the last couple days.
12/05= 148.8 Mexican dinner last night means No Junk Food Challenge for today and maybe a couple more days. I really need to make time for more than just walks today. Need to go to the gym.

Day/Weight/Comment
12/04 221.4 pounds. Just got back from a wonderful vacation and my weight is up a bit. Looking forward to the next ten days of getting back on track.
12/05 214.4 pounds. Either that was a lot of water weight gain from my vacation or my sister's scale weighs differently than mine or both. Mine is new and recently calibrated and is what I've been using since I restarted my weight loss program in September, so I'll take it. Only 1.2 pounds to go until I'm at my pre-vacation weight. I can probably get there during this ten day challenge.

Round 61 - my 4th round

Female - 58 - 5'7"
OSW: 271.8 (Oct 9/18)
UGW: 165 or lower

End R58: 261.2 (-2.2)
End R59: 258.8 (-2.4)
End R60: 256.6 (-2.2)

My goal is to stick to 1500 calories or less per day.

12/03 - 256.6 - End R60 - bumped up 2# from the day before with indulgent after dinner eating.
12/04 - 255.8
12/05 - 253.8 - This is what I like about daily weighing. I can see that one or two off-plan days don't have to turn in to ruination as long as I get back to plan asap. (I edited my weight after posting because of TMI

Hello! I am newly returned to MFP and this is my first challenge.

I am at my lifetime high, and seem to have gained 3.5 lbs in 2 days of reasonable eating- which cannot be real. So my goal for this challenge is to finish below 210.

12/4 216 (mini- win: went out for a rare lunch with a friend; didn't over eat! Saved $$ that way too!)

12/4 - 178.8 - Starting to come back down. I never have a Round goal weight, only a 10 lb goal to reach. This time I set one. 175 lbs, to keep me accountable and away from the carbs until I reach it. BECAUSE, there are 2 carb days I am looking forward to, gingerbread and belgian waffles 😃 both courtesy of my son's baking. I've been waiting on this gingerbread for 4 years😂

12/5 - 176.8 - 😏 Okay. I will take it, thank you very much.

Back in the "legal" zone. I'm still slacking off on exercise because of lingering pain, especially in my joints. The elimination diet I was on eliminated 15 pounds but not the pain. Still a win! We tried another short course of prednisone and will re-check inflammation levels mid month and go from there. In the meantime, I need to suck it up and exercise anyway. Maybe I should join a "get off your butt for 10 days" challenge!

12/05 - 131.2 - 1160 - 10-day ave 1383
Follow-up visit with dietitian today re. the elimination diet, which has made no difference in my pain/inflammation. It will be interesting to hear what other suggestions she might have. In the meantime, I'm trying a new baked salmon patty recipe for lunch. Mmmm!

51, Standing: 5'9" in NYC
OSW: 274 ~ CSW: 234.2 ~ GW: 230

12/03 ~ 235.2 - End R60 not too bad overall. Down 1.6 lbs.

12/04 ~ 234.2 - SOOOORE is the word of the day.

12/05 ~ 233.1 - Unexpectedly had time yesterday and spent HOURS deep cleaning house, moving furniture, reorganizing closets and decorating for the holidays. So surprisingly not as sore today, but feeling achy enough in my knees and lower back to make this a rest day for sure. Hoping some mild stretching this morning and eve gets the kinks out ~ and the weight loss keeps dropping! Have a great day everyone.

@SheilaBoneham I’m curious about the repeated prednisone- have they tried an NSAID? Carl’s ortho gave him a script for meloxicam and he is very impressed with the pain relief. He doesn’t like to take drugs so . . .

@quiltingjaine No, no NSAID's other than OTC and they have only a minimal effect. I've been diagnosed with PMR - polymyalgia rheumatica - and everything I've read says it does not respond to NSAIDs. Pred is the drug of choice, unfortunately, and I'm fighting it.

puttyputty · December 2018

@quiltingjaine, as someone with a strict dietary need (I have Celiac, so no gluten), I've found that if someone is pointing out things I can eat, it usually means they are either doubting whether I have to eat that way (since it can be a bit trendy to go gluten free) or they are just really curious about what it's like. I usually say things like, "Yeah, as you can see, I have to be careful, but there really are lots of options and I don't feel deprived. And I feel so much better since my diagnosis that it makes it all worthwhile! I thought it would be hard, but it's much easier than I expected." And then I see if they want to ask questions. They always do!

I don't know if your friend is coming from the same place, but it's a strategy you might use.

@SheilaBoneham, I hope they figure something out. I'm prone to inflammatory problems, so I have so much empathy with what you're feeling!

Round 61 SW: 220

12/4—216.2—That's 3.8 pounds since yesterday. The amount of water I was retaining with TOM was pretty impressive! Still not feeling great, but improving.

12/5—216.8—A bump up but this was an early weigh in. Not a real gain. I'm in week 3 of my push ups challenge and I can really see my improvement. I'm getting stronger every day!
