Day/Weight/Comment

03/04 …..189.2 ….. The same as yesterday (thank Goodness!) Here we go folks! Good luck on the new round! Yesterday’s stats: 2109 Calories In (out to breakfast) / 2374 Calories Out. 12,235 Total Steps & 5.18 Total Miles, all from my heavy Sunday work schedule. No IF yesterday. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 15 minutes. No planned exercise as I worked all day until 7:00 PM & then had a movie night at home with a friend. Another heavy work schedule today but I hope to fit in my dancing, at least. I gotta get the ball rolling here! Have a great week everyone!
03/05 …..188.9 ….. My Fitbit numbers were phenomenal yesterday! Today will not be so good. I had several sitting appointments including with my attorney but I am trying to get as many steps as I can in. Yesterdays stats: 1135 Calories In / 3090 Calories out. 8 Net Carbs. 24,128 Total Steps & 10.22 Miles !!! Yay me! 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. IF 16:8 . I slept for 4 hours & 18 minutes. I walked at moderate pace for 93 minutes at the school. I danced for 71 minutes at home, all in one set. Sample song “Money for Nothing (I want my MTV) by Dire Straits. Much slower paced today but glad I will be food prepping although that doesn’t offer too many steps. I love my strong moments & strong days. I hope they will become more & more frequent. This winter weight has got to go.
03/06 ….. 188.7 ….. Such a slow process at times, but well worth the weight (wait lol)! Twisted my ankle yesterday doing absolutely nothing but walking through my livingroom. Spent most of the evening with it elevated. Yesterdays Stats: 1304 Calories In / 2346 Calories Out. 8 Net Carbs. 10,128 Steps & 4.28 Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. IF 16:8 . I slept 5 hours & 13 minutes. I danced for 27 minutes. Sample song “Nobody to Blame” by Chris Stapleton. Happy hump day everyone! Good luck to all those fasting today.
03/07 …..188.9 ….. A total binge during a birthday party for a friend. I have no idea how many calories or carbs but I know it was ridiculous. I’m shocked that this weight isn’t higher this morning. It may show up in a few days. Tonight is my normal Thursday night Pool & Potluck. Pray for me. Yesterday I burned 2302 Calories (but ate more I am sure). 8,488 Steps & 3.6 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Steps. No IF. Not enough water. I slept 5 hours 43 minutes. I danced a 15 minute set. Sample song “Bad Romance” by Lady Gaga.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/04 - NW - I did two episodes of Zombies, Run! and intended to do another, but I needed to finish hooking a hat together for a trip today. However, I might cancel that trip due to ice on the sidewalks; I have no desire to end up with a broken hip. I will likely instead have lunch and do a Zombie, Run! Food is doing good.
03/05 - 306.2 - WHOOOSH! - About to have breakfast. My aide comes today. So, I will go for a walk after she leaves to avoid having to pace in the apartment. I'm not allowed to leave her alone in the apartment. I'm averaging two walks a day of Zombies, Run! I just wish it would consistently pick up my steps. I've increased my steps to 7,000.
03/06 - NW - Did two episodes of Zombies, Run! yesterday. Food is okay. I'm figuring out today as it is Ash Wednesday and therefore technically a fast day, but gotta eat with some of my meds. I will be going Mallwalking today. Woot! I have considered taking advantage and doing an episode while I'm there. I don't anticipate the mall will be very busy today which helps my anxiety. I plan on walking at least two episodes today.
03/07 - NW - Mallwalking went great yesterday. The last time I attempted I lasted 12 minutes. Yesterday I walked over an hour for 2.54 miles. My first full meal of the day was dinner and unfortunately it did not stay down. I redecorated my living area before I made it to the bathroom. Today I plan to get in at least one episode of Zombies, Run! I discovered yesterday the GPS will work in the community room but not in my pocket. I also have to fast the majority of the day due to lab work at 2, and the actual appointment is at 3. I'm seeing my endocrinologist today.

First round, here we go!

CW - 84.7kg
GW - 70kg

R70 GW: 82.7

Day/Weight/Comment
03/04: 84.7kg. No change, but yesterday was a good day for steps (10,000+), eating well, and almost 8 hours of sleep. Definitely one of my side goals is tracking my sleep better!
03/05: 84.3kg. I will take that! 10,000+ steps, did a small gym session even though it wasn't part of my daily plan. Slowly getting a little bit more confident in the handful of weight machines I am so very, very light workouts on in addition to my cardio. Sleep only just over 7 hours, still working on this.
03/06: 83.9kg. Yesterday was a good day in terms on steps, poor in terms of sleep. Not as much exercise done today, so it will be interesting to see if this bounces up about 84kg tommorrow.
03/07: 84.1kg. Ha, and there it is!
03/08: 83.7kg. A little surprised, as even though I got 10,000+ steps in I was unable to get to the gym due to 12 hour work day. Will definitely take it! If I can just keep up this work for the next half of the challenge I may just hit my goal weight for the challenge.

@thattoothfairy I'm stealing your goal: bed by 10 for 10 days!!! Great idea! 🛌

Fantastic! It's a challenge for me at the moment, but each day is a new start and I'm glad the goal is inspiring

Day/Weight/Comment
03/04 - 176.8lbs slight drop again. TOM. Think I'm still retaining weight because of it.
03/05 - 177.4lbs - slight increase. Well, that's what happens when you give in to the temptation of crisps, chocolate and cake during TOM. Oh well.
03/06 - 176.6lbs - yay!. That's better. Bye bye water weight. See you again next month! Lol
03/07 - 177lbs - annndd we're bouncing. My eldest brother was taken very I'll yesterday and rushed to hospital, then told surgery was needed urgently. Didn't end up going down for surgery until after 10pm. Seems to have gone well, thankfully. I stress ate in the meantime!
03/08 - 175.8lbs - that's what I like you see. 175 is the lowest weight I managed to achieve last year. And it took me until July 23rd to reach it too! So to get to that point, and push through it, will be a huge milestone!
