Day/Weight/Comment
2/12 - 142
Iced in this morning but I'm hoping to get to the Y this afternoon for treadmill/bike time. I did my new weight training routine with several added machines yesterday - it now takes me 40 minutes. Feels good when I'm finished!
2/13 - 142.4
I didn't make it to the Y yesterday - didn't make it out of the house! - but I'm going now. I ate responsibly yesterday. All good. (Will be better when warmer weather arrives!)
2/14 - 142
I gave in to an urge for CheezIts last night, so salt + extra calories. Why does nibbling accompany creativity? (I'm starting a new book in a new mystery series, so I really, really want snacks! And I was writing in the back of my friend's watercolor class - creative energy everywhere - and there's a vending machine down the hall and I had just enough change and....)
Time to make myself some baby carrot + hummus packets, I guess! But I digress....Today I will try valiantly to resist whatever Valentine temptations show up today - maybe one truffle? - and try to focus on other expressions of love besides (shhhhh - whisper -- chocolate...). I started baking (a new-to-me obsession) before Christmas and I'm still at it, learning to bake yeast breads among other things ( made this little beauty last weekend)
but I'm trying to channel the urge into soups and such. Last night I made a delish chicken/turkey pot pie, cutting the calories WAY down by using almond milk, half the butter, and skipping the bottom crust. Still comforting on a cold, raw, windy night, but only 350 calories/serving. I've never been very domestic so I don't quite know what hit me! Off to the Y to burn some of it off. Have a lovely!

I have similar snacking problems when I'm studying! I completely blew up while doing my masters thesis!
That bread looks amazing! My thing at the moment is sourdough bread, loving it and we've actually stopped buying sliced bread, which means less crappy bread in the kitchen to snack on!

Took a break due to mental health…. Now back up past my starting weight! I have also developed high blood pressure so for the sake of my own health I need to do this.... plus I don't want my kids growing up without me there!
Currently doing a “100 miles in February” challenge for charity too, so I'm running 4km every morning and 10km on Saturday and Sunday!
Day/Weight/Comment
2/12- 100.4 so embarrassed about how much weight I put on… doctors was a real wake up call, showed me the excess is doing more that just stretching my clothes!
2/13- 99.9 didn't eat very well yesterday and took a rest from running too!
2/14- 99.7 doing well but I know it's just the Tom water weight coming off!
2/15- 99.0 Well this is a nice drop! Had a lovely run this morning, getting faster every day! Slightly concerned about the weekend as I'm bringing my son to a fortnite thing and I've promised him five guys for lunch afterwards… I'll have to be on my best behaviour...

12/02 Went a little off my planned meals yesterday as went out for dinner with my lovely man, had some spicy Indian food to try and help unblock my ear, along with everything the doc has me on. Not sure exactly what impact this will have on my calorie deficit as had to guesstimate, I mostly had veggie stuff so it wouldn't have been too high and my watch also rebooted itself and wiped out an hour or twos data so my calorie adjustment is all to pot.
I did my 2nd cycle into work today, still don't trust the local traffic on the narrow streets, the streets here are still made for horses and carts going one way nevermind 2 way traffic, so walked some of it. I have pole class tonight so will have a fairly active day in all.
13/02 Finally got a drop on the scale woohoo, it's unusual for me to record the same weight day after day, my water weight normally has it up and down like a yo-yo. Aching like hell from last night's pole dance class, but have another one tomorrow so better recover sharpish. Got a reasonably quiet day activity-wise today and meals all planned for the day.
15/02 Not sure how I managed this but somehow skipped a day's info, so have corrected it now. Had a lot more food yesterday than normal so not unsurprised it's up, ate at maintenance-ish yesterday. Trendline in Libra is starting to take a downward turn again so happy enough. I have my catch up class of Pole Dancing this evening and a lot of walking expected 3km in to work/3km to pole dancing/ 3km to boyfriend's place later + the normal 3-5000 steps I normally get in over the course of the work day. My race training starts for rowing this weekend, so will probably struggle a bit with calories in the coming week, it's hard to find a balance between keeping a deficit and fueling my training to start with but I am sure it'll be easier this time around than the first time and the physical benefits of the training make a helluva a difference in my body composition, so there is also that to look forward to.
HAPPY FRIDAY!13 -

Round 67 ~|~ End goal: <164
11/02: 165.0: Goals: Gentle exercise after my intense 2 days of strength.
Not sure if the stall/increase is because of weekend food choices, increased strength training, or both. It's sometimes a trade-off situation when one decides to work on muscle toning. Looking forward to Round 68.
Round 68 ~|~ End goal: <164
12/02: 165.1: Gaols: ✅ Hmmmm... Still plateauing. Under calories but a relative rest day after Monday exertions.
13/02: 165.1: Goals: Do grocery shopping, gym session, 9000+ steps ✅. Didn't get to gym, but did some circuits at home. Fitting in the gym is problematic this week.
14/02: 164.6: Goals: Well, there it is again! Planning a Leslie Sansone HIIT workout before I head out this afternoon✅. Did w/o plus some flex/strength. Ate most of my exercise calories on Valentine's dinner 😂 so will definitely be holding water in the morning!
15/02: 164.9: Goals: 1 hour gym session ✅ plus some walking later on today.
THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.
Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/12 – 143.5 – I’m happy I’m still within maintenance range after my carb and sodium fest weekend!
02/13 – 143.5 – I had a tax client come in yesterday. I’ve been doing her work for 15+ years. She’s always been thin, but the past couple years, as she approaches 50, she’s gained a little weight. She was shocked at my weight loss and asked how I did it. I told her about MFP, CICO, and this challenge. She was blown away at the fact that we weigh ourselves every day and share our weight and stories with each other. Having been in this challenge so long I forget how intimidating something like this can be. Whether we’re up, down, or stuck in a plateau, it says a lot that we’re here.
02/14 – 142 – I realized yesterday morning that I had not been keeping up with my water, so I made a determined effort to drink plenty of it.
02/15 – 143.5 – More water today!

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. Maxwell
My goal for 2019 is to get into ONEderland. Changing my life.
Plans:
- Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target 70k steps per week
- Drink more water (target min 64 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
- Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018)
- Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
- Drink less alcohol (4 AF days per week; ~16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Round 68: My focus is to continue tracking streak, reduce snacking on poor choices, drink more water and be active every day in some way shape or form!
Posting weight each morning, and comments for the previous day.

First time joining! We have a guest from overseas for the next 2wks, so I can definitely use some additional accountability right now! I bumped my allotment up to maintenance, but ideally will still come in a bit below that.

02/12: 209.2 - My son’s 6th birthday, and my 1st day on maintenance while we have a guest. Stayed under my calorie goal despite dining out for lunch and birthday cake in the evening
02/13: 209.6 - Leftover birthday cake blew my calorie goal out of the water. Luckily it was a small cake, so it’s gone now. It was so rich I think I’ll be good without dessert for a WHILE!
02/14: 210.6 - Not surprising, given the past two days. I need to drink more water. Went out to lunch and had a large burger, but still stayed under goal; I was too full for dinner!

Iced in this morning but I'm hoping to get to the Y this afternoon for treadmill/bike time. I did my new weight training routine with several added machines yesterday - it now takes me 40 minutes. Feels good when I'm finished!
2/13 - 142.4
I didn't make it to the Y yesterday - didn't make it out of the house! - but I'm going now. I ate responsibly yesterday. All good. (Will be better when warmer weather arrives!)

I gave in to an urge for CheezIts last night, so salt + extra calories. Why does nibbling accompany creativity? (I'm starting a new book in a new mystery series, so I really, really want snacks! And I was writing in the back of my friend's watercolor class - creative energy everywhere - and there's a vending machine down the hall and I had just enough change and....) Time to make myself some baby carrot + hummus packets, I guess! But I digress....Today I will try valiantly to resist whatever Valentine temptations show up today - maybe one truffle? - and try to focus on other expressions of love besides (shhhhh - whisper -- chocolate...). I started baking (a new-to-me obsession) before Christmas and I'm still at it, learning to bake yeast breads among other things but I'm trying to channel the urge into soups and such. Last night I made a delish chicken/turkey pot pie, cutting the calories WAY down by using almond milk, half the butter, and skipping the bottom crust. Still comforting on a cold, raw, windy night, but only 350 calories/serving. I've never been very domestic so I don't quite know what hit me! Off to the Y to burn some of it off. Have a lovely!

Chocolate. People brought chocolate to painting group last night and I apparently no longer have any self control. then I needed something salty to counteract the sweets when I got home, so cheese....Extra time at the gym today maybe? Salad? Seriously, back to paying attention. This must stop!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/12 - 201.2 (4296 steps) Monday was a halfway decent day. No exercise. It was pouring rain so I skipped the grocery store and went to Wendy’s. Grilled Chicken sandwich and apples slices. Small bit of LNS but I was in bed early. Still pouring rain today. Hope to have the energy to grocery shop and meal prep tonight after work. Ugh!
02/13 – 202.0 (7461 steps) 34 minutes on the bike (7.03 miles) Tuesday I made it to the grocery store (both of them) and did not have any gumption to do any meal prep. It was pushing 7pm by the time that I got home. I do plan to do some tonight. Usually, once I get going, it goes pretty smoothly. I am so ready for summer and warmer temps plus being able to walk outside. This weather just makes me want to hibernate and eat! Bad combination.
2/14 – 201.4 (7072 steps) 39 minutes on the bike (8.04 miles) Wednesday I did do SOME meal prep. I did 2 meals with shrimp and couscous (those are for home b/c I don’t want to stink up the office) and 3 meals with steak, brussels sprouts, and blue cheese (2 for work and 1 for home). I still have 4 pork chops that need to be cooked and I might make some Knorr Rice Sides to pair with those. That should get me through the weekend.
02/15 – 199.4 (7069 steps) 27 minutes on the bike (5.73 miles) I had planned to do more but next thing I knew it was after 10pm. I survived the office potluck AND a surprise family dinner at Applebee’s. My goal is to attempt to see a ONE on tomorrow’s weigh-in too. I seem to see it only 1 day and then it’s gone. Small steps. My overall trend since 1/1/19 is going down. I’m happy to see that.

@puttyputty Thanks for the inspiration.. That is a huge number of push ups! I started and managed 11! And 35 squats. But the sit ups defeated me.
My starting point was FOUR knee pushups in late October. Four UGLY knee pushups. I'm amazed at the progress I've made and I bet you can outdo me! I thank the people on this challenge for being great cheerleaders! 4 -
Love seeing the downward trend.10
