JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 68

Hi, My name is Joan. This will be my first round.
Age- 60 years young.
Height-5’3 1/2”.
OW-156# - Oct 2016
Hit Maintenance goal weight -125#- June 2017.
I set a goal weight range of 125-130, for myself. My weight’s been creeping back up. Jan 2019-135. I Do Not want to regain weight lost as I have in past; because I feel SO good at lower weight!
I just can’t let that happen!
This challenge sounds like just what I need.
CW-132.4
GW for this 10 day challenge-130
2/12-131.6. First drop in 3 weeks! “Happy Dancin”
2/13-132.4; slept crappy last night. Did the Nighttime snacking thing. But not out a control. Still under my daily cal limit. Gotta stay on plan with my eating today. My weakest is when I’m very tired and not feeling well.
2/14-132.6, weighing daily is stressing me right now. Been working hard. Hope to see a better number tomorrow.
2/15-133.0– scale is making me crazy!!! Absolutely no good reason for going up! But Im determined. Im going to do a alternating daily calorie goal to hopefully break this plateau and work on getting my water in better. IF is not an option nor Keto for me. One positive, I was so ticked this morning; I did a 45 min HIIT workout before coming to work.
2/16-131.2!!!! Go figure. Still going strong. I will succeed 😁

Day/Weight/Comment
02/12 - 180.6lbs - going down again cold finally improving, thankfully.
02/13 - 180.4lbs - slowly slowly. Feeling much better. In the annoying stage where I have an almost constant tickle at back of my throat making me cough loads lol
02/14 - 179.8lbs - Wahoo! The 170s. Let's hope it sticks.
02/15 - 180.2lbs - oh man! Slow going this round!
02/16 - 179.8lbs - back in the 170s. Let's hope it stays this time. Off to FIL and step MILs house today. She always puts on a delicious cooked breakfast spread. However, she is doing slimming world and she knows I'm dieting so shes said she'll do a slimming world friendly brunch. Not sure what that will involve but hopefully I'll have some calorie wise choices I can make.
02/17 - 180lbs - Greer. So frustrating. Wont stay in the 170s! Brunch yesterday wasn't healthy lol. It was all the usual stuff, she just hadn't fried any of it. Which helped, but didn't provide any healthy choices lol. So I just limited my portion to keep it under control. Also had a low calorie dinner to limit damage. Went over calorie goal still, but not by much and still in a calorie deficit overall. I expect the small jump has more to do with salt content. Swimming this morning with daughter. She is doing so well at the moment and being really brave about trying new things. Its lovely to see

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 for a "drive-by dinner". 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

02/14 - 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.

02/16 - 198.6 (7086 steps) Friday was a good day. Work meals were light so I was able to treat myself with Jimmy John’s. I skipped the bike and went to bed early.

02/17 - 198.7 (7553 steps) I rode 2 horses at the barn yesterday for about 1hr 15mins worth of exercise. My eating was okay until after dinner. I binged on cheese. OMG I love cheese! I was exhausted so I went to bed at 7:30. That probably saved me from really going off the deep end.

02/13 201 I need to get to 199 by 2/17.... If I do, I will win the challenge at my gym, and get a free month of classes, and 1/2 my money back. I am so close!! Although, I have to admit, for some reason my brain eliminated the 200 and I was thinking one more pound... but it's 2 UGH!
02/14 200.4 getting there....
02/15 200.4.... yesterday was rough... valentine's day treats, and I forgot to go to the gym... let me repeat that... I forgot to go!! I did do a little Jillian Michaels at home though...so I guess that's good.
02/16 200.8 ugh.
02/17 200.0.... I saw it... I saw the ONE.... and then it flickered away, and settled back on the TWO.... my scale is taunting me!!!!! LOL !!!

02/13 180.8 Hmm I adjusted my calories slightly to see if that helps. How long do you normally give it before making adjustments? In the 20 days I’ve been back to using mfp I’ve lost 1.2 pounds.
💗02/14💗 179.4 Woo hoo! Back to round 67 start weight! We're on a budget this Valentine's Day, so we're celebrating at home. I'm making a steak dinner tonight. 🙂 Have a great day everyone!
02/15 179.4 Stayed within calories yesterday and macros were a bit off to enjoy valentine goodies, but overall it was a good day!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/12 / 178 this morning / I'm not discouraged. It's an odd jump so I have a feeling that it will be coming back down soon. My goal for this round is 175 lbs or a little lower. I'm focused and ready.
02/13 / 176.2 / I knew a drop was coming. I just hope I can continue on this path. I've been trying my best to do the right things this round. Worked out last night so needless to say, I'm satisfied.
02/14 / 176.6 / Ate a few too many chocolate chip cookies yesterday. They're one of my weaknesses. I also definitely did not drink enough water.
02/15 / 176.6 / Ended up being only 40 under my calorie goal yesterday. I finally bought another controller for my Xbox 360, so I was able to play my Zumba game with the Kinect. Ahh.. I really missed that game. I know I burnt a lot of calories yesterday so I'm hoping to see the weight start coming down soon!
02/16 / 177
02/17 / 176.6 / Ughhh.. So frustrated with seeing 176 & 177 every day! I have to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Oh hey! Nice to meet another fellow hooker lol. Heart scarf sounds super cute - I also really like making scarves and hats because they just work up so fast.

Happy to be a hooker also! Working on about 4 projects at the moment.

I’m definitely in! Round 3 for me.

02/15 - 258.2(-1.8). I’m not sure why yesterday was up. I work nights and finished a stretch with very little sleep so maybe getting in a good 8 hrs helped.
02/16 - 257.4 (-2.6). I made cauliflower crust pizza last night. It was very filling , I felt for sure I would gain but love it even more now.🥰
02/17 - 256.6(-3.4). Nsv . Yesterday we celebrated hubbys birthday. He wanted Chinese he got the usual Chinese buffet I got the steamed beef and broccoli no rice. I still wanted an egg roll and crab Rangoon but stayed strong. I did have a sliver of cake my daughter made but it worked out ok. So glad I maintained strong.

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 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!

2/15 - 143
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!

2/16 - 142.4
Today's a challenge -- barbecue chicken fundraiser for lunch and a "soup & games" night with friends, which will, of course, offer more than soup. But hopefully I'll get to the Y to work a little of it off. I'm actually a bit surprised that I'm holding steady considering how much I've been eating. And although I have since reset my goal to a lower number, my original goal was 140, +/- 2 lbs, so I'm not too far out of bounds. But I'm channeling my kitchen urges into lightening up favorite recipes. I should just stay out of the kitchen for a couple of months - my hubby is much more lean with his cuisine. Have a great weekend, all!

2/17 - 142
I'm surprised, since I snacked a bit at the soup gathering last night. But I did stick to the vegetable soup, which was delicious. So I'm still hoping to be down a bit more by the end of the round. Enjoy Sunday!
