JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 86

jlbtnc · August 2019

I am in for another round; I am trying to get this emotional eating under control. I know for the past several rounds I keep saying this but I am truly trying. I have my food scale again (had to get new battery).

I am in for another round! Hoping to finish this round at 234.x

Age: 31
Height: 5’4”
SW: 236.7 (-.7lb)
GW: 192

R84 - EW=239.2 (+2.5lb)
R85 - EW=236.0 (-3.2lb)

Day/Weight/Comment
08/11 - 236.3 - was not as strict as I wanted to be yesterday; I didn’t log so I’m not 100% sure the “damage” but this is all about balance and being consistent when you can’t be perfect.

08/12 - DNW - skipped the scale intentionally this morning, didn’t want to make my Monday even Monday-y-er because of the fluctuations. Today I was spot on with eating though for the first time in a while. Who knew making good choices throughout the day would make it easier to stay under my target calories Lolol!

08/13 - 238.7 - 🙄; still plan on making today a good one.

08/14 - 238.7 - 🤷🏾‍♀️ have a work function tonight (and tomorrow actually). I will enjoy a glass of wine and try to keep the food choices light.

GW: 125

8/11: 143 -- I did not track, and I snacked all over the place. Blah. I decided to set up a morning routine beginning 8/12.

8/12: 144.6 -- I am tracking and am staying hydrated. I started a morning routine to include prayer, meditation, and of course, my outside time with coffee and a low-carb breakfast. I'd like to work in exercise as well. I'd also like to wake up earlier than 7ish in preparation for my kids' new school year next week. I'm not working this week, so I'll have more space to begin this healthier lifestyle.

8/13: 145.6 -- Slow start, obviously, and I need my afternoon/evening motivation to equal that of the morning. I have a playdate here today with a wonderful friend and her son, so I think that extra activity will help. Time to return to the Y as well, finally. I was just thinking how fortunate I am to even have a gym membership. I'm eager for my phone to charge so I can do my Insight Timer meditation today. I think it affected me yesterday morning, which was nice. I was just blah by the evening, though. At least I am halfway done with school shopping and managed thrifting with my daughter. I found a carrot/potato medley to make in the Instant Pot tonight.

8/14: 144.8 -- Now the scale is moving in the correct direction. Time for more mindfulness today.

Goal: Improve Sleep - duration of 7hrs and score above 80.

8/11 200.9 lbs 6h18m/79/11:38pm - blew my calories on Friday night, so this isn't unexpected. It's also not permanent. Look out, One-derland, your girl is coming for ya....
8/12 199.7 lbs 6h4m/80/10:51pm BUSY day, but had good energy throughout. Back below 200 and sleep score at 80, so I'm starting my Monday right.
8/13 199.0 lbs 5h47m/73/10:52pm Sleep still not optimal, and feeling sore & run down. Pleased with the continued losses on the scale, tho.
8/14 200.5 lbs 4h39m/70/11:16pm So sore - muscles probably retaining water - and my feet & ankles are a little swollen; wish I'd been able to get to Zumba last night. Busy day at work, tho... will get to Combat tonight. Not sweating the gain today. We'll see again tomorrow.

@livefreely12 ... looks like we both are getting ready to make a big move! Small gains can come before bigger drops, but if you feel like you're on a plateau, change something up. You've been working longer and harder than I have - with amazing success - and unfortunately, plateaus are part of the deal. You can get to your November goal, I have no doubt!

08/13 270.0 I'm getting in late this rnd but better late than never. I have changed the way I set goals, I don't do very well with long range targets so I am taking this in 5lb increments and hope to lose 5 by Labor day. Then we will look at the next 5. At my wt I should be able to drop 5 like nothing but man it is stinking hard these days. Best of luck everyone w can do this.
08/14 269.7 Had a good day, did have a few evil chips but nothing major plenty of healthy stuff to, around 9000 steps. I try to keep the added sugars low and up the fiber, carbs are usually pretty low unless i indulge in the evil chips, im not a sweets person so that helps.I'm a salt addict big time. but i also eat alot of veggies and fruits. I try to keep red meat to about once a week, need to eat more fish but its hard to find quality fish in the midwest, stores are full of "product of china" fish, I am not touching that crap, nope. have an awesome day all.

Here we go again for another half round! I'm really enjoying this, I just hope I don't give up while I'm on holiday!

Round 86 (5) Total weight loss so far -11 lbs

Stephie, 48, 167 cm
R82 (1) - SW 166.5 / EW 163.9 (-2.6lbs)
R83 (2) - SW 163.9 / EW 163.6 (-0.3lbs)

R85 (4) - SW 161.0 / EW 160.0 (-1.6 lbs)

:

OSW 171

CGW I'll just see how it goes with the holidays
UGW 135

Day / Weight/Comment
08/11 - 161.6 (+1.6) totally expected as I gave myself a cheat day yesterday, and amazingly no regrets either As this is the first cheat day in 40 days I'll see how long it'll take me to drop the extra pounds off. I have 4 days till I leave on holiday, it's a bit of a bummer really as I was getting into a good routine regarding food and running.
08/12 – 162.4 (+0.8) I think that cheat day is still making me pay for it, even though I did good yesterday by going running and kept within my 1200 cal. We’ll see what tomorrow gives 😊

08/13 - 160.8 (-1.6) Ok that's a bit more like it ! I've noticed that if I have around 500-600 calorie deficit I can loose some weight. Today I'm not doing much as I'm prepping for the trip tomorrow and I have some last minute medical appointments to go to.

08/14 - 160.8 (0.0) Last weigh in, no change, I'll be happy if I come back with the same weight but I'm not that naive lol Went for a run at the gym this morning, I showed up at 8 am, the earliest I've ever been

and I'm taking my gear with me. Medical exams yesterday showed thoracic inflammation which explains pain and swelling, which is less worrying than was initially thought

08/15 - Holiday - no scales

Did I exercise? Yes! 3 mile walk.
Did I record everything? No. Sloppy day
Did I stay within my calorie range? No, I don’t think so, but I never know for sure if I don’t write it down.

Round 85:208.8. -3.2lbs. (waist/navel/hips 34.5/38.25/44.5)

Round 86 goals: fast 3 days. Stick to proper macros on eating days. Close all rings every day

08/11: 209.8. My weight popped up again. What a pain! I will be fasting until Wednesday morning, maybe longer if I feel good. Yesterday I started with a bad stomach ache. I never get stomach aches. Hopefully fasting makes it go away fast because it is very uncomfortable

08/12: 207.8 still continuing the water fast. Yesterday was a wonderfully relaxing day. I did exactly what I wanted. I ate about 200 calories of chicken so not a perfect fasting day. Today will hopefully be better. I am
up bright & early to get in a sunrise walk.

08/13: 206.2. Still continuing the water fast. I did eat food yesterday. Probably 300 calories. I was like a bad kid eating when I was home alone. I would like to not eat for a full 24 hours because at this point I am afraid I am just restricting calories and not getting the benefits of true fasting. I feel good, slept relatively well. I missed my sunrise walk this morning, because I slept in, so I will have to figure out some time to get some exercise today.

08/14: 207. I ended my fast earlier than planned, yesterday at supper. I was very hungry. I am sure next time will be easier. It took a long time to fall asleep & it probably would have been better to break my fast in the morning as I had planned. My next fast will be in 7 days.

Day/Weight/Comment

08/11 – 142.5
08/12 – 142 – I haven’t weighed in this low on a Monday for a while. Some of my weekend food choices may catch up with me tomorrow, but I did a lot of moving around yesterday so hopefully, it won’t be too bad.
08/13 – 142.5 – Here’s my weekend blip up. I found out that I have a small kidney stone yesterday, so I definitely drank a lot of water.
08/14 – 142 – Well, if nothing else, I’m getting extra steps in because of all my bathroom trips. More water today. Looking at the likely causes of kidney stones has made me re-evaluate my eating habits. Almonds and cashews have become my go-to snack at the office over the past year and of course, that can help cause stones. There are also a number of other foods and supplements I’ve been eating that can contribute to them. Just when I thought I had a handle on how to eat at maintenance, I’m going to have to change things up.

Round 85: SW - 123.9 | EW - 123.0 (-0.9)

Sunday, 8/11/19 - 123.3
Ok, back for my 2nd round. Lost .9 in my first round, but fluctuation was 2.8 over the course of the 10 days. Can’t explain it all, but hoping to learn from it for this round. See I am already up 0.3 over last round’s end.
Monday, 8/12/19 - 124.2
Why?! Rode several miles on my bike Saturday and walked most of Sunday. And logged in everything I ate. So, why?! Never went over my allotted 1,200 calories for a day. Have to assume for now trend will be down again this round. Just frustrating. Trying really hard to be “good” in a sustainable way that could last long term.
Tuesday, 8/13/19 - 123.5
Back in the right direction. Would love to see something lower tomorrow as a bday present to myself for my conscious (but reasonable/sustainable) efforts.
Wednesday, 8/14/19. - 122.4
Sure this isn’t real - wasn’t very hungry yesterday for some reason. Nonetheless, I’ll take it for today and see where things go in the next few days. Always focused on not totally denying, just making better food choices the majority of the time. Know adding in strength training is on the to do list. Honestly not sure going to the gym is a reasonable goal with my long work hours and a family. Looked up “office exercises” and will see if I can incorporate some of these into my day. And Happy Birthday to me!

Round 85 was the successful round I’ve had in months! I hate having to put the same numbers in again but at least this time there was a loss. If I can keep this up for the next few rounds I should get to some new numbers soon!

Day/Weight/Comment
08/11 - 182.4 - I know a lot of the weight loss this week is water weight as I’ve been eating better and getting my water in it still feels good putting these numbers in though.
08/12 - 183.6 - had a bit of a splurge yesterday so this isn’t surprising.
08/13 - 182.8 - these fluctuations are it so hard to judge what I really weigh.
08/14 - 184.6 - not surprising since I ate crap yesterday.

I have my coffee with all of you each morning, checking in.

8/11-168-I had a giant burrito after all of the hot sweaty yard work yesterday. I am excited to be starting a new round!
8/12-170-I am glad it’s Monday. It is so much easier to eat healthier during the week.
8/13-167-Good food choices, no chips or a drink while I made dinner.😳My friend and I went horseback riding this morning and now I’ll do half of my big walk and start in on the laundry, housework and quilting......it’s supposed to be hot.
8/14-166-I’ve been eating my big meal at lunch and just having a protein shake at dinner and I feel so much better late in the evening without heavy food in me. I’ll get my 7 mile walk in and hopefully some yoga.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 86
