JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ ROUND 69

Round 69

Please join us! Starting on 02/22 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 69
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

02/23 149.8 ~ (Steps 13,942) I realize the challenge don’t actually start till tomorrow but I need to get a grip on things here. My husband and I decided to take a drive to visit the biggest book store in the States here. We only live a couple hours away so it was a nice drive plus we stopped for lunch. Unfortunately my weight has gone up these last few days. On the bright side there’s only one way to go noe, lol. I do have fantastic news within the next week, my husband will be starting his new job, yessssssssss. This means I can get a routine back, yesss yesss yesss.

02/22 148.8 ~ (Steps 19,696) ~ Yesterday was a successful day in NLS, this will be my number one focus on achieving for my weight to drop. Today I’m hoping to get a pool session in,

02/23 148.1 ~ (Steps 12,978) ~ I was about to get a pool session in plus a wonderful workout at the gym, hopefully today will be a repeat. Of course, now not getting enough sleep isn’t helping. Within the next few days that should be getting back to normal too, 👍🏼

02/24 148 ~ (Steps 12,366) ~ Not the healthiest food choices yesterday, unfortunately. On the bright side I was able to get a good nights sleep in,

02/22 - 153.2 I think I'm back down to my start weight. I have my meals and snacks prepped, so I should be able to make good choices. We have a breakfast potluck, and I brought bagels - not my favorite flavor (pumpernickel) so I won't be tempted. I had my eggs and oatmeal.

02/23 - 154.2 Not surprised. I did have one bagel, but I also didn't do well with my water intake. Today I had a great workout with my personal trainer. I'm working on strengthening my shoulder as I gain more mobility.

02/24 - 153.2 My goal for today is to drink 64 oz of water. Gotta do this. I'll be tied to my desk all day grading assignments.

02/22: 227.8: 14,347 steps, started couch to 5k again (last time I hurt myself and couldn't keep up the running). Got in running/walking time, some weights, jacuzzi/pool time, went out for dinner and walk around town even though there is still ice and snow on the ground!
02/23: 227.8: 4,682 steps, I had to work the dayshift and I was unable to get to the gym before it closed. But watched my calories and made sure not to overeat while at work, which is an amazing feat in of itself.
02/24: 224.3: Steps are still counting for the day but they are going to be low. My hip has been out again and causing tremendous pain down my leg. I am going to make it tomorrow no matter what and try and walk it out. I was happy with my loss. Getting back into the grove of my diet always shows tremendous gains (or losses!). I just have to be mindful while eating at ork and not overeat.

Day/Weight/Comment

02/22 – 142.5 – I had a highly stressful day at work yesterday and I could feel myself wanting to graze on the chocolates, donuts, and candy my coworkers have scattered around the office. Instead, I pulled out my bag of skinnypop popcorn and crunched away my frustrations a piece at a time.
02/23 – 143 – I had a turkey taco, a half a brownie, and a couple extra ounces of wine last night. Even though I have to work through the weekends through April 15th, I enjoy celebrating a Friday night. I was still within maintenance calories, so I’m fine with some water weight bumps this weekend.
02/24 - 144 - There's a bump! Hope it's not much worse tomorrow.

As predicted, my waterweight loss has stopped now that I’ve lost precisely 2 lbs. Ate very good yesterday so I’m ok with that.

02/23: 152.6

Ah, the beginning of my first plateau.

02/24: Didn’t weigh myself this AM. My husband bought Girl Scout cookies yesterday and I binged on them last night and woke up bloated. So annoyed but today I did better.

Took a 10 day hiatus from tracking and logging. Gained a total of 12 pounds in those 10 days! I weighed 147.7 before leaving on vacation and came back and weighted 159.9. I almost cried, but I didn't. I knew it was mostly water weight and carbs and it should come off fairly quickly. I am not setting any goals for this round except to get back to 147.xx. The last couple of weeks have been extremely stressful, fun, amazing, exciting, and scary all wrapped up in to 1 box. Vacation was amazing, but my older kids had stuff going on at home that we were having to deal with so it made things a lot more hectic this year. I'm ready to get back down and start losing again. 10 days! 10 days!

02/22 - 151.2 so I'm still going in the right direction. I have lost 8.7 pounds since Monday. I have another 3.5 to go just to get back to where I was 2 weeks ago. Hopefully this weekend I can stay strong and on track. I would like to be back in the 140's by Monday, but of course this weekend is jam packed with all kinds of stuff to do. Fingers crossed I will make wise and healthy choices.
02/23 - 151.2 same which is good and I will take it. LNS got to me last night. Ate a couple of mini sized butterfingers. So I’m glad I stayed the same.
02/24 - 152.5 up a bit. Did really well yesterday. I don’t know why I’m up. Probably a late reaction from the night before. Have a family lunch today and more laundry. We will see where I end up tomorrow.

2/22/19 164.8. 70 mins treadmill - still can't get back on the trails this weekend, very heavy rain last few days so it'll be a quagmire out there. Calories OK, tracked.
2/23/19 164.4 90 mins treadmill. Beautiful sunny day today, warmer but still cool for SoCal. Going out for dinner tonight, already tracked what I'm going to eat but don't know exact calories so will probably be over. Really need to see some good loss this round.
2/24/19 163.6 90 mins treadmill. Good Sunday...I normally 'break the budget' on Sunday!!

02/22 - 178.4lbs - slightly up. No biggie. Am expecting the same for tomorrow and sundays weigh ins as out drinking tomorrow night for a friends 30th and MIL is doing fish and chips on Saturday. So tasty, but sooo many calories! Lol
02/23 - 180.4lbs - this is the result of having a McDonalds at lunch time (a treat from work), alcohol in the evening and indulging in the treats at the party (chocolate fountain anyone?! Lol). Oh well, I enjoyed myself, don't feel guilty and know it will come off again
02/24 - 180lbs - so begins the drops again. back to normal routine today, so should see another drop tomorrow too
02/25 - 179.4lbs - still dropping, slowly. Bit frustrated as its official weigh in day and its artificially high as (tmi) no bm yesterday. Oh well.

02/23 - 224.4: (-0.2lb) Heading the right direction, which is great. Food yesterday was OK, so will be looking for a little more tomorrow. Got our weekly friend gathering tonight, so must keep snacking under control. Back to cleaning for me!

02/25 - 224.8: (+0.2lb) Listen here, missy, can you get your shizz together please? This is not acceptable. Get your head back in the game and stop snacking on everything in the house. We will not be hitting 225 tomorrow, thank you very much.
