JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 80

jill80538 · June 2019

Hi Everyone, I'm Jill. This is the first time I've participated. Putting myself out here like this is way outside of my comfort zone, but I'm willing to for success. These mini challenges seem like a good way for me to stay on track. I'm trying to make weight loss as painless as possible, so I've set my goal low, so as to only lose .5 lb a week. I have no idea if the calories that My Fitness Pal set for me will do this. I'm going to stick with it for this challenge, though, and adjust as needed. Good luck, everyone!

SW: 198.8
Round 80 GW: 198
UGW: 175 (This number could change depending on how I feel when I get there!)

@jill80538, welcome to our challenge, you’ve made your first step towards success! I love your attitude, sticking to the challenge and adjusting your calories if need. If I can be successful, you can too, good luck on your journey!

Previous Round:

Sun 02/06: 163.0: Goals: ✅Another wee bounce up, but it's the weekend. 😂
Mon 03/06: 163.0: Goals: ✅Still working on my knee and elbow, but it's getting much better.
Tue 04/06: 163.2: Goals: ✅I'll just sit here then. 😂
Wed 05/06: 163.3: Goals: ✅I think I must have been retaining water as I have been eliminating loads today.
Thu 06/06: 162.6: Goals: ✅Still passing oodles of water. And it shows on the scale.
Fri 07/06: 162.8: Goals: ✅Just keeping,on keeping on! 😂
Sat 08/06: 162.7: Goals: ✅It's touch and go whether I will weigh less at the end of this round, but at least I am maintaining.
Sun 09/06: 163.9: Goals: ✅Hmmmm... Maybe need to check my sodium intake more carefully!!!
Mon 10/06: 163.4: Goals: ✅Just gotta keep hanging in there.
Tue 11/06: 164.1: Goals: ✅Caught sight of my legs in my full-length mirror, and realised that my left knee and lower leg is swollen. I think it's coming from the inflammation in my knee. I was on my feet for over 4 hours on Monday. Hoping it will go down again if I ease up on the exercise for a few days.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

I am 52 y/o 5’1.5” from PA. I have a ways to go to reach my ultimate goal of 110lbs. Weight loss is harder as you get older but not impossible. It definitely is a life time change and it tends to slow down quicker, and every day is a struggle. In the end I will get this and not beat myself up over mistakes.

Round 68 SW: 225.8 – EW: 219.8 (↓6lbs)
Round 69 SW: 219.2 -EW: 215.8 (↓4lbs)
Round 70 SW: 215.8 – EW: 210.8 (↓5lbs)
Round 71 SW: 210.2 – EW: 209.4 (↓1.2lbs)
Round 72 SW: 210.0 – EW: 206.4 (↓3lbs)
Round 73 SW: 206.0 – EW: 201.4 (↓5lbs)
Round 74 SW: 200.4 – EW: 200.2 (↓1.2lbs)

Round 78 SW: 195.8 – EW: 194.0(↑0.4lbs)

Bridie checking in!

37 year old from New Zealand, currently vacationing for the month of June in Tokyo, London, and Paris.

Original Starting Weight: 118.5kg
Current Weight: 74.1kg
Challenge Goal Weight: 72.9kg
Ultimate Goal Weight: 70kg.

R80 Goal: To continue walking as much as possible while enjoying everything that London has to offer! I have a couple of down days planned over the next 10 days that I will have to take care with, but there is really low level stress re: losing weight over the trip. If it happens, it happens! The plan was to lose weight FOR this trip, and it seems surreal that after two years of planning, plotting, and dieting I am here

12/06: 73.9kg. 10,000 steps done yesterday trotting out to and around the Wellcome Collection and The British Library. Highlights definitely included seeing the Magna Carta, and Wilfred Owen's original and handwritten poem 'Anthem for Doomed Youth'. Very surprised that I had this weight drop, prepared for it to bump back up in the next couple of days post-period weight loss.

I'm back after exactly a month! I've missed this group quite a bit. But I decided to take a break because my life was super unpredictable last month in terms of tracking and daily weighing. I did a lot of camping and overnights away from home. But now I'm back for a little bit (at least the next 10 days!) And I really need you guys.

Previous round results -

R67 EW = 141 lb; ∆ = -2.2 lb
R68 EW = 138.2 lb; ∆ = -2.8 lb
R69 EW = 135 lb; ∆ = -3.2 lb
R70 EW = 134.8 lb; ∆ = -0.2 lb
R71 EW = 133.6 lb; ∆ = -1.2 lb

R72 10-day-average = 133.1 lb

Day/Weight/Comment

06/12 132.8 lbs
It's actually 12:10 a.m. here in California but I already fell asleep and woke up so I'm posting now. I've been suffering from sleep troubles in part because I'm 56 hours nicotine free. I quit smoking and vaping on Sunday night and am now approaching the hardest part, day 3&4. I don't know if I can make it. It feels like I'm either gonna relapse or start eating and I don't want to do either. My goals for this round are 1. Zero nicotine 2. Yoga every day 3. Log every day 4. One morning run.

R80 Goal: Round 79 (my 2nd round) was much better than R78, working my way to a 4lb loss! The goal for this round is to keep up with the training and controlled eating. I have Tough Mudder this round too and I can't wait!
My overall aim for the whole month of June is to train consistently - with that should come the weight / inch loss.
Also... 10K steps a day and more water!

12/06 138.5lbs / 62.8kg (-1lb / 0.5kg) and 12,879 steps
Had a good day yesterday with exercise and food. Was especially chuffed to have enough calories to eat a WHOLE tub of low cal raspberry ripple ice cream last night (350 cals for the full tub) while watching my favourite TV show

Today's plan is much of the same...walk to and from work with a Push session at lunchtime. Keeping up with the water intake too.

Lot going on this round - daughters 16th birthday, cheer competition in Brighton this weekend, Fathers Day and youngest away all next week on her school residential so my other daughter wants to have a shopping and lunch out day so going to have to be super-focused this round to stay on track to meet my holiday goal. A Friday finish to the round is good though!!
5 rounds to go and aiming to lose a further 6lbs....... So looking to finish this round at 138lb - an overall loss of 1.1lb....

R80 Start Weight - 139.1lb

06/12 - 138.7lb (-0.4lb) Happy with that to start with. Off work today as youngest has her district sports inter schools athletic competition to go and watch and its also my other Daughters 16th birthday today so need to avoid the cake and treats and choose sensibly when we go out for dinner tonight. Feeling focused .......
