Round 64 - Round 1.5 for me
Round 63 - SW=209.5, EW =205.7

Diagnosed with Type II Diabetes - November 10, 2016 A1C = 8.5%, September 21, 2018 A1C = 6.1%

Current Weight - 205.7
First Challenge (Round 63) Weight - 209.5
Highest Weight - 227.8, May 2016
Goal Weight - 199
Ultimate Goal Weight - 194

Goals -
* Under 1900 cals each day
* No blood glucose tests above 180
* Run 5 days above 2.5 miles

1/3 - 205.7, Happy that I did not eat a lot, but did not track and overall choices not great. Need to get on the darn treadmill and make sure testing blood glucose consistently. Focusing on tomorrow's goals.
1/4 - 204.2, Fairly happy. Relatively good eating and a blood glucose of 96 right before bed which was fantastic. A key to success in managing my type II is staying off the carbs after 3PM. Still need to get on the treadmill and track food intake.
1/5 - 202.8, Pretty good day. Ate a light and healthy breakfast and lunch. Went out for dinner and ate so-so, but did not over eat. Big win was 2.7 miles on the treadmill in 30 minutes. Going to try to track food tomorrow. Want to start posting calories and steps for more accountability.
1/6 - 202.8 (1,095 calories in and 11,241 steps). Very good day. First time I ever tracked every single item I ate. Took my son to the newly opened Top Golf. I did not realize it was a bar food place. Only drank unsweetened iced tea. Did not do a lot of walking all day, but hit the treadmill at 8PM. Got in a great 2.7 miles/30 minute run. Interested to see what the scale says tomorrow morning.
1/7 - 200.8 (1,180 calories in and 12,381 steps). Relatively happy today. Second day in a row tracking everything I ate. One bad choice that shot blood glucose up to 239, but one bad choice is better than many. Ran on treadmill for 30 minutes for 2.8 miles. Hoping the scale goes under 200 tomorrow.
1/8 - 199.7 (2,175 calories in and 9,505 steps) - WOW!!! Have not seen this number in 20 years. Extremely happy. Need to make this sustainable and go for another 6.
An odd day. The high of a great weigh-in followed by shaky eating after lunch and binge eating at night. The low calories the prior two days did not help. Need to find a place in-between. Happy that I tracked every single item I ate which I would have quit doing in the past. Not a horrible binge, but still a binge. Will show on the scale tomorrow and just need to bounce back. Will do!
1/9 - 201.6

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 - 182.0 Happy with this.
01/04 - 181.9 I weighed myself twice this morning and got two different numbers, so this is the average. Crossing my fingers!
01/05 - 183.2 Well that's not very nice! I was over my calories yesterday but I'm guessing this has more to do with water retention or something. Oh well, off to Pilates!
01/06 - 183.0
01/07 - 182.6
01/08 - 185.4 I didn't even want to post this, but I'm pretty sure it must just be water retention since I ate out last night. That's what I'm telling myself....
01/09 - 184.4 UGH......

01/03 286.4 and 8.0pounds down since I started. Hoping to find Fitbit charger so I can accurately check my calories burned daily.

01/04 285.2 I normally weigh in every morning after I get up and pee so this is a nice way to be able to log everything. *Update on my day although not weight related* Found out my father in law has cancer in the hips and lungs today, feeling so down and bad for my MIL. They are such good people and she lost her dad last January so this is really a blow to her.

01/05 284.9: 9.1 lbs down. Maybe tomorrow I’ll hit 10. 🤞🏾🤞🏾

01/06 286.2: and frustrated. Didn’t lose but gained and was really hoping to hit my 10 lb loss today. I drank some wine last night but was still in my calorie allotment so I’m feeling like it was the pad thai and all those carbs. Anyhow, here’s to a new day. I got a new Fitbit yesterday as well so hoping that will help motivate me with steps and everything. I’ve also had a killer headache since last night and today will probably be a lazy day.

01/07 287.4 and really annoyed now. How the hell did I gain 3 pounds this weekend? I stayed below my calorie limit even though it was a little higher than the last few days. It has to be the carbs. I did read that a Norma daily fluctuation can be 3-5 pounds but it sucks to see any higher number when I’m working so hard to lose. Anyhow, today will be a good day. I have an interview for a healthcare job that I’ve wanted for a while. Luck and prayers are being accepted!

01/08 286.2 Going back down again, thank goodness! I should hear back about the job either today or tomorrow and my stomach is just in knots. I do have another interview today at 1030 but it’s for a job that I don’t really want. School starts again Monday and I’m so ready to get this semester on the road! Hoping to see the scale go down again tomorrow. Here’s to hoping!

01/09 284.6 I got the job! And I’m so close to hitting my 10 lb goal! My father in law had his biopsies done yesterday and we should hear back in a few weeks and find out a treatment plan for him. Binge watching my 600 pound life really motivates me to not want to be on that show. I can’t believe I was almost halfway there before I started to get my *kitten* together. I have really enjoyed this page and the accountability it’s held me to knowing that I will have to post my weight every day. 3 days left, let’s see where we’re at!

Day/Weight/Commen
01/03 143.8 the woooosh train has arrived, mind you I had a ton of energy yesterday (which are the days I absolutley love😍😍) so ended up jogging over 3 miles, walking over 30,000 steps and pretty much worked out right up until bed. I drank 1.6 liters of water and was way under calories...but even if I had worked for this drop, I am still shocked it happened over night. Today although, has so far not been as good. Because of yestedays workout craze, I was sore as heck! My steps are over 10,000 but otherwise I haven't worked out..yet. Once I am finished posting, I am planning at least a 1.5 mile jog (indoor because of how cold and late it is) and hopefully another routine right after..maybe strength...maybe an additional cardio.. maybe both. I will see how I feel when I am done. 1 liter of water and hoping my little workout will bring me to a maintenance calories wise because so far, I am way over lol. We will see

01/04 144.8 a small bump but i deserved it. LNS got to me 😥 16,005 steps

01/05 143.6 and back down, 22, 748 steps and worked out like a mad women.

01/06 144.6 TOM arrived last night so I am hoping this is just a bump of bloat, which I am definitley feeling. I am back....again lol. I planned to post every night but I have recently joined a lot of MFP groups that require end of the day posting so I think I will just do what I always did to begin with, post in the morning about the previous day. So the scale is moving slowly and I expected this after the holidays, I am hoping for a mini whoosh once this bloat dies down though. Today I am planning on hopefully getting to the grocery store. For meals it's been pretty good, sticking to healthier options but snack wise has not. Still have a crazy amount of treats floating about and every time I think my family has made a dent, I find another box or tin of something and the worst part is I am running out of veggies and fruits to eat so I don't go running to the cookies. Exercise this past week has been great but my eating could be a lot better

01/07 145 TOM bloat still here

01/08 144.4 slightly dissapoined. I am still slightly bloated but I worked out like mad, walked a little over 31,000, drank 1.75 liters of water and ate under cals. I am hoping tomorrow will be better 😧😧 hoping for a nice whoosh to end the round strong. Right now my goal is to get back to pre-holiday weight of 142 but I am hoping I can push out a little more. I didn't think it would be this difficult to take it off, especially because I got right back on track. We will see what the next four days offer. Volleyball tonight but I messed up by doing upper body strength workouts yesterday and today my arms are hurting, so much...I really hope it doesn't effect my performance

01/09 143.8 that is fine!! Slow and steady eh? I'm just going to have to kick my own *kitten* .
Anyway yesterday was pretty good, food wise. My brother brought me a Cobb salad wrap, which sounds healthy but ended up being closer to 800 cal...yikes!! Thank gosh I exercised a lot yesterday or else I actually would have been in trouble. Had volleyball last night for the first time since before holidays started and we kicked butt. Two matches, six games and we won them all!! Kind of shocked because the first team we faced is the hardest one in the league and if they didnt keep defaulting (not showing up, not having enough players etc.etc and a total of 6 times!!) they would most definitley be in first. We have been standing strong in first place all season but they still managed to climb to second....which I am still trying to wrap my head around because that just seems ridiculious to me. Anyways 26,000+ steps, 1.5 liters of water and under cals.

Round 64 SW: 217.2

1/7—217.2—Hello friends and friends-I-haven't-met-yet! I hope everyone had some break time. I had some vacation days, some lounging about days, and some recharging my batteries for 2019 days. I'm starting this round at almost the same as my start weight for round 62, which pleases me.

1/8—219—Digestive whammy. I forgot to mention yesterday that I'm continuing on my quest to be able to do 100 pushups by the end of 2019. When I started, I could do 4. Now I can do 20! The program I'm using requires me to hit certain goals before I can move on to the next level, and I need to get to 31 before I can move on. In the meantime, I'm repeating week 4 a few million times.

1/9—221—Yikes! Okay, I know I ate some gluten free puff pastry treats last night, but this amount of water retention is insane. There is obviously pufferfish in my family tree.

Day/Weight/Comment

1/03 - 175.8 - Still a bit of fluid weight. 174.4 my R62 start weight flashed briefly before settling on this. I can wait.?
1/04 -177.6 - Felt miserable all day yesterday. This weird cold/allergy like illness again. Exercised, ate dinner and went to bed later than usual.
1/05 - 177.2 - Started the day feeling lousy and not hungry and on the right side of carbs and calories. Took some cold medicine and ended the day +400 on the wrong side of carbs and calories.
1/06 - 178.2 - My goodness, no surprise though. I opened one of the last bags of those delicious porcini rosemary kettle chips. Ate the heck out of them just before going to bed. I'm feeling much better this morning, so the comfort eating should cease. Although, it's a potentially high carb day, since I'm going to visit my littles.
1/07 - 177.2 - Under 50g net carbs, so very much better than Friday and Saturday. Reigning it in today.
1/08 - 174.4 - 24g carbs, 19g net carbs. Carbs were: zucchini, salad, 1/4 grapefruit, 3/4 ounce of cashews after dinner drove up the carb count by 6g

1/09 - 174.8 - Fluid retention, not enough sleep. Late exercise, then watched a movie while coloring. Went to bed at 2:30am.😐 19g carbs, 12g net carbs. Spinach, salad, cauliflower. Shooting for 14g net carbs today.

01/03 - 182.9 Whoosh! I am going to pretend that ugly 185 number didn't happen yesterday because this is where I expected to be - just took another day. The holidays are over and I am down - only .03 pounds but it's down. As long as the weather holds out I'll go for a walk this afternoon. I should be able to get in 3 miles before it's too dark. If I didn't have this stinky job I could really do more trail walking. Go home, get my dog and head to Kill Creek Trail for a day of romping in the chilly sunshine. Instead I'll stay here in my office and work

01/04 - 183.2 And back up we go. This roller coaster ride is making me queasy! I got in 5 miles yesterday - the fastest I have ever walked that far. I don't care if I'm up a little bit, I'm healthier than I was 24 hours ago. I'm going to go at least 3 tonight maybe 4 who knows.
01/05 - 183.0 The roller coaster goes down. I did eat back all of my calories yesterday, which I never do so I'm glad to see a small reduction today. I got to leave work a little early and talk a nice sunny winter 3 mile walk. Finally taking Christmas down today - that will burn some calories

Then a walk this afternoon and then WHO KNOWS!
01/06 - 182.7 I did get in 3 miles yesterday. Took down the tree and spent quality time with family. That's as good as a Saturday gets. Today taking the Christmas stuff I went thru to goodwill and another walk I think. I'm traveling for work this week and need to exercise while I can. I won't be able to on Tuesday or Wednesday so walk today, gym tomorrow, two days off then back on the trail on Thursday.
01/07 - 183.0 After a one day dip the roller coaster goes up a bit. Probably the sodium from yesterday's lunch. I was under on calories and walked 4 miles. I'm not sure what else I can do but stick to the plan and know it works. I have five days left and I'm afraid I'll be right where I started. I have a four hour drive this afternoon then I'll stop at a gym close to my hotel for weights. Of course my food will be difficult this trip because I will have limited options for food tomorrow and Wednesday. I'm going for training where they bring in sandwiches, then a company dinner, then more sandwiches the next day. I hate these trainings where we don't get to go to lunch but have to eat whatever is brought in. I'm picky and do not like cold sandwiches. First world problems I know but when you're watching what you eat it's impossible to avoid sodium - it will be sliced turkey, beef, chicken, or ham. ALL salt bombs. Overly mayonnaise potato salad and cookies for dessert. The only thing I like is the cookie. They feel they're being healthy by offering turkey on wheat, and oatmeal raisin cookies. Maybe this time will be different. Maybe...
01/08 - no scale I was good calorie wise yesterday, walked 3 miles then a short weight work out. Today’s lunch was exactly what I expected but with a salad. I ended up ok but dinner is at th Budweiser Brewhouse. Chances of a nutritious meal less than 50%
01/09 - no scale Didn’t technically exercise yesterday but still got in 10k steps. Dinner was terrible. I had a few raw veggies and 1 chicken wing. Came back to the hotel for a salad. Oh well. Driving home today.

My goals this round- get to 170. Drink lots of water and make exercise a priority.
Current weight-177 After a heavy lunch yesterday, followed by dinner.
1/3-No Scale
1/4-174 A good swoosh down after heavy eating.
1/5-No Scale
1/6-No Scale
1/7-175 I tried to eat good over the weekend away. It’s good to be home and back into 2 walks a day while packing the house.
1/8-175 Again. I waited too long to eat yesterday and didn’t eat healthy. For me, I need protein, and I don’t crave crap.

My first round
5’7, female, 38 years old
SW: 210.2
GW: 145ish

1/03: 207.8

1/04: 207.2

1/05: 205.8 - I suspect a lot of this loss is water weight as I have been refraining from alcohol and drinking ~100oz of water a day

1/06: 205.6 - Had planned a day off of working out yesterday, but then got invited to a friend’s to watch football, so hit the gym for a quick workout beforehand to earn some extra calories. They ordered pizza for dinner, and had beer cheese fondue, of which I ate both . I did refrain from drinking alcohol though, which is hard around these friends, so I feel proud for that. I was still under my calorie goal, but only drank 72oz of water (my goal is 100oz each day.) So, overall a fine day, but I could have made more nutritious food choices.

1/07: 204.6 - Had *major* intestinal issues yesterday. Still not feeling 100% today. I took my day off exercise yesterday, but may do it again today until I feel better - will see how I feel late afternoon. I found my Fitbit charger last night (no easy feat ), so I can start using that again to track exercise calories a bit more accurately. Today is the first time in over 3 weeks that I’ll have a couple hours to myself at home, so I plan to take “before” photos (felt to awkward trying it when people were home/didn’t have a private space where photos would come out clearly.) I am also planning my first trip to the grocery store since starting this, so I’ll have to be more intentional about reading labels, which is not my strong suit, especially with possibly whiny kids in the cart. I downloaded a step by step mediation/mindfulness app a few days ago (I’ve never tried this before), and I can already tell it’s helping me combat negative thoughts throughout the day - I feel most excited about discovering this in my journey so far! Whew, this was longer than I intended. Thanks for reading!

1/08: 203.8 - Still had major stomach issues yesterday. Ate over my calories with toast and bagels trying to settle my stomach 🙈. Felt better by the evening, but didn’t do a work out. Did some squats and leg lifts before bed. I did hit my water goal and did make it to the store to stock up on healthy items, but did not do my “before” photos - which I WILL get done today. In other news, I have a conference in about a month, and I checked my medical records to see about how much I weighed at around the conference last year. I was about 5lbs lighter than I am right now, so I am glad I will be about the same as last year. Also though, I thought I was 5’6, and all my recordings say 5’7 so 🤪 - really helped move that BMI percentage though 😆. All my drivers licenses forever have said 5’6, so feeling pretty dumb, and will need to update my current one.

1/09: 203.4 Felt better yesterday, worked out hard, ate healthy, hit my water goal. Took before photos - boy was I ever kidding myself about what my backside looks like without clothes 🙈.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/03 - 243.8...We had blizzard like weather yesterday so it was an in the house day. Managed to stay within calories, drink 125oz of water, do a walking video and shovel some snow.
01/04 - 242.4
01/05 - 242.0...walked for about 30 mins yesterday while shopping. Under calories and 75 oz ot water.
01/06 - no weigh in. Had a really bad day yesterday, and learned that my biggest food trigger is anger. I ate until I was sick and still feeling sick this morning from it.
01/07 - 241.0...stayed low calorie yesterday, under 1000 (mostly because I was still to sick to eat much) Did about 30 mins of walking and had 100 oz ot water.
01/08 - 241.6..went out for supper yesterday but kept it within calories, did water aerobics, helped my mother move a bunch of stuff and had 100 oz of water. Either up from sodium in supper or because it's a 3hr earlier weigh in than yesterday.

HSW 229.4
R40 SW 199.4
. . .
R62 SW 173.4 -1.4 (- 26)
R63 SW 175.4 +2 (-24)
R64 SW 177.2 +1.8 (-22.2 with this challenge - 30.8 for 2018 and -52.2 all told)

Goal for this round - get good habits re-established and see steady downward trend
1/3 176
1/4 174.8 What a busy group this is right now. Welcome to all the new folks and the restarters. Stick with us - this is a very helpful challenge and a great group of people.
1/5 175.4 Stress eating yesterday DS just moved from the paediatrician to a GP. GP is asking questions that are hard for someone on the spectrum, with predictable results. It will get better as they get to know each other but it will never be easy. My own GP refused to take him as his needs were too complex so we are starting from zero. Starting today with a workout to try and vent some of the stress.
1/6 176
1/7 DNW don't want to know - rough day yesterday
1/8 179 &$#@^!*&%$# And did the cheesecake and pizza solve anything - no they did not. tempted to throw in the towel but not licked yet.
1/9 179.4 - but that's OK yesterday was a much better day - no out of control or emotional eating. Landlord told me when i got home that the kitchen reno's that were supposed to be done in August would start this morning so I had a busy evening clearing out the kitchen and this morning the guys are here dismantling the 60yr old cabinets.

Not sure how meals will go the next couple of days but by Saturday I should have all new cupboards and appliances - nothing super high end - but all shiny new!!! Sounds like a good time to overhaul the eating habits yes? Thanks for all the hugs yesterday. Sometimes its hard to look after yourself when you have others to look after, but I know many in this group are in a similar situation. The support of the group really helps. I won't find myself into the 160s this round and may even nudge back into the 180's - but there is another round coming.
