JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 91

SolOchVinter · October 2019

My goal for this round is to avoid binge eating and stress eating. Avoid sugar and hopefully lose a little bit of weight

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 80.9 I gained weight during the last round. There was a lot of stress and I dealt with it partly by eating a lot, mostly candy. But now most of the stress is gone and I can get back on track again

10/01 80.9kg I was so tired yesterday and got hardly anything done. Periods really does sucks sometimes. But hopefully I’ll get started with some exercise again today.
10/02 81.0kg Jump rope for 25 minutes and a very small walk

10/03 81.3kg
10/04 81.4kg My diet is not the best right now. But atleast I am getting my exercise done. There’s such a big difference in my body weighing around 80 kg now when I lift weight and try to keep as active as possible from weighing 80 kg about 5-6 years ago when I didn’t exercise at all. I am still overweight now and I definitely want to lose so I get back at a healthy weight. But I don’t feel as uncomfortable in my body as I used to do and I am very happy about that. Getting started with a consistent exercise routine is probably the best thing I have ever done for my health (+quit smoking).

10/06 80.0kg Yay!
10/07 80.4kg

I wasn't as focused in R90 as I had hoped to be hence the minimal loss.
My plan for R91 is to re-focus, log and track properly and see a loss of 1-2lb....

Start Weight 138.0lb

09/30 - 142.4lb (+4.4lb) Hosted my Dad's birthday dinner last night so good food, good company and a couple of glasses of fizz to celebrate. So a temporary blip on the scale as I know I didn't eat enough to put on 4lb but due mainly due to more carbs, late evening eating and sodium. Food all planned for today and aiming to drink plenty of water ..... All is good, feeling positive and a new month starts tomorrow too! Happy Monday

10/01 - 139.6lb (-2.8lb) Glad I don't only weigh once a week as would have been very demoralised yesterday - this is why I love daily weighing and learning to understand the effect different foods have on the scale every day. Another good food day planned and a gym PT session tonight and my water bottle is at my side

10/02 - 138.8lb (-0.8lb) Will take this quite happily. All heading in the right direction, actually been logging my food properly, staying in allowance and drinking my water

and amazingly the scale goes down ..... Who would have thought it eh ?

10/03 - 138.3lb (-0.5lb) Still heading in the right direction so all is good. Decent food day planned and gym tonight so all good and feeling positive

10/04 - 137.6lb (-0.7lb) Yay!!! Down to less than I started this round at last!

10/05 - 138.0lb (+0.4lb) Hhhmmm - and back to where I started again. Don't know why as ate slightly under calories yesterday so can only think it was lack of water. I don't work on a Friday and being at home I tend to forget to drink water - plenty of tea and coffee - just not plain water. Possibly this..... But then I do often find if I've had a few losing days then I will ping back up a bit then start losing again a couple of days later - not disheartenend as feeling in control at the minute so just got to make sure that carries on.
Have a good weekend everyone

10/06 - 139.9lb (+1.9lb) Artificially inflated as always on a Monday due to our usual Sunday family roast with parents but was really bad at drinking enough water over the weekend. Got so caught up with painting the room getting ready for new floor to be laid and delivery of our new kitchen over the next couple of weeks that I didn't drink nearly enough of anything let alone water! But back to normal weekday routine - at work every day which seems to make it so much easier for me to stay in a routine as sit at my desk with my water bottle in front of me plus I have a 60-90 minute journey each way every day that I get plenty of chance to drink my water. Have set myself up a target of 4 weeks to get back down to my holiday weight of 133 (if not more of course) (have my grandsons birthday party and fireworks celebrations that weekend so have an event to work towards rather than a vague date - seems to work better for me that way) - easily done if I stay focused and accountable

3, 2, 1 go!!!!

R90 (9) – SW 159.6 / EW 157.6 (-2.0 lbs)

Goals
1 - Keep to 1200 cal (except run days 1400cal)
2 - Run 3x week
3 - Water 1.5l
4 – Core workout 30 day challenge

Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:

09/30 Start Weight 157.6
10/01 156.0 lbs (-1.6) 13,775 steps, 4.15km run/walk, core challenge 02/30 ok. I was not expecting such a loss, especially after having a good drop the day before! I’m really pleased as I was stuck going up and down in the 157.x for two rounds and it was starting to get me really down! Also, with my running I’ve started doing a 30-day body core challenge app (planks), to stop my abs from wobbling around when I run lol
10/02 158.0 lbs (+2.0) 6.461, core challenge 03/30 done… Ok so that was a shock, I had guessed that it would go back up a bit but that was more than a bit pfff I ate well until 6pm when we got home and only had time to eat a couple of cheese sandwiches before the math teacher showed up for my DD and I didn’t have time to make myself anything “normally” healthy. Then I had the bad idea to top if off with a piece of cake. I had thought I could squeeze in a run but that didn’t happen either. Anyway, today is another day, healthier dinner is planned and a run this evening.
10/03 – 157.4 (-0.6) 1224 cal, 15.455 step, Core 04/30 done, 3.93km W7R1 done. Yesterday went ok, I did my run on a treadmill which I found quite hard but I admit it has advantages and disadvantages, I found it boring which is the main disadvantage but on the other hand I could increase speed incrementally easily and track my progress. Also I don’t have good balance so was quite stressed about falling off and ending up on one of those silly treadmill failure videos For food I’ve realized I’m better when I don’t eat in the evening after a run so I just had an apple
10/04 157.4 (0.0) 1278 cal, 11.887 steps, Core 5/30 done. All over a good day even if I didn’t loose any weight. I made a big batch of tomato soup which will last a while and curb any snacking hunger. I’ve got a very busy weekend ahead so I’ll have to plan my meals carefully!
10/05 157.4 (0.0)
10/06 159.7 (+2.3)
10/07 159.4 (-0.3) Core 07/30 ok -So the weekend was a wash out, my weekends are really starting to bug me. I put on weight every time and I’m just so busy, the stress of getting everything done combined with eating on the go is not working out at all. Next weekend is just as bad so I think I just have to sit down and set some priorities. I’m a bit annoyed with myself right now (and tired and cranky sorry)

My first round! Not sure what to expect.

SW - 115 k / 253 lbs
R90 SW - 102.9 k / 226.4 lbs
R90 GW - 100.6 k / 221.3 lbs
UGW - 80 k / 175 lbs

Goals:
- 2.5 k / 5 lbs
Reduce calorie intake to < 1500
Maintain my exercise plan - 3 x 90 minute swims, 2 x 3 mile outdoor walks, and 2 x 2 miles walk/jog treadmill
Keep the carbs as low as possible < 30 grams

I have been on a plateau for two months and am ready to make changes!

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 - -
10/01 - - cut the cream out of my coffee, came in at 1519 calories, 42 net carbs and got in a 90 minute swim
10/02 - 102.9 k
10/03 - 101.7 k (probably water loss but I will take it!) 1735 calories, 29 net carbs and walked 3 miles outdoors, felt super bloated at the end of the day but work up feeling good. Here is to another good day!
10/04 - 101.1 k 1315 calories, 17 net carbs and ran 1 mile followed by leg workout. So far so good!!!
10/05 - 100.9 k 1379 calories, 11 net carbs and 60 minutes swim. Made up for it with intensity this time! Felt it. The scale is moving in the right direction finally!!! That said - its lowering the calories and carbs that has made it happen. Keep telling myself it isn't magic!!!
10/06 - 101.2 k 2454 calories (!!!), 27 net carbs and walk/jogged 2 miles. It was homemade Keto Pizza and movie night with the kids... I am sure I have some water retention and, well, I ate too many calories! I was hungry. The days I eat less than 1500 I feel the hungry at night even on keto. After two days at 1300 I cracked! I am really appreciating this message board for the clarity and accountability I find in posting. It is also helping me face the scale with a good attitude. Usually when I have a small gain, even if I can explain it, I feel demoralized. I think facing the facts head on and honestly is better. I believe I am still on track. Goal of 100.6 for Wednesday!
10/07 - 101.4 k 1853 calories, 19 net cabs, no exercise. It's my birthday today so we went out for dinner. I am still going to feel good about the calories moving in the right direction. The scale will eventually follow.

@quiltingjane Thank so much for the response and advice! I try to keep the carbs low and you have a point- they are key. Maybe next round I can make them my focus rather than calories. I test my ketones and even with intense exercise never break past 1.5 mmol/l. When I wasn't losing I started to avoid 'fat bombs' as I suspected I was eating too many. Might add one in the evening and see how it helps!

R90 SW 194.8 EW 190.8 (-4)

Day/Weight/Comment

09/30 -191.9- I used to panic if I had an uptick in weight. I wanted a fast solution and I took even a small fluctuation as a failure on my part which then led to failure on my part. Now I know fluctuations are normal and I am doing well if I trend downward over time. Stick to the program and it will work!

10/01 -191.6- I went walking yesterday and it is so hot here in KY, still in the 90's. Come on fall temps!

10/02 -190.7- Keep going! You are worth it!

10/03 -190.1- My back and legs hurt after walking last night. I swear I think it is the hot temps that are to blame. Thankfully, the weather is about to turn fall-ish around here!

10/04 -189.9- Slow and steady, that's what I am aiming for! With my daily walk I have about 1500 calories to work with. I am not going hungry at all and I can even work in things like a serving of chips (not 3/4ths of a large bag!) now and then. I want this to be a healthy lifestyle change and not just fast weight loss so I am aiming for sustainability.

10/05 -190.5- Time for the weekend!

10/06 -189.7-
10/07 -189.4- .6 of a pound to goal for this round. Two more days...focus, focus, focus! We are finally getting cooler tamps and rain. We have thunderstorms forecast all day so walking may be out. I would walk in the rain but since lightning struck the tree beside our house and fried our dishwasher, phone, computer...I am not messing with lightning!

09/30:203.4. I will be pretty strict for this week. Hoping to lose 10lbs in the next 3.5 weeks before vacation
10/01: 204.8. This is directly the result of poor choices. It is not real weight gain & will go away.
10/02: 204. Better day yesterday but still a bit out of control. Today will be better since I had better sleep & will go to yoga after work.
10/03:202.6 getting there but still not where I want my eating to be. I cooked last night & that should help me stick to my goals a little better
10/04: 201.4 I had a good day yesterday. I decided that rather then white knuckle through the afternoon I separated my lunch into 2 and ate half at 3:30. That really helped. I hope to keep seeing this downward trend through the weekend
10/05: 202. I had a cooler last night. I should have skipped it but it explains the pop up.

Day/Weight/Comment

09/30 – 145 – I’m glad I didn’t go up anymore. I’ve got the water ready along with some healthier snacks for the office this week.
10/01 – 144.5 – I started a short work out program with my husband yesterday.
10/02 – 144 – OK!
10/03 – 144.5 – Worked out last night, but I’ll have to start logging my food again. I know my little healthy snacks are adding up.
10/04 – 143.5 – I’m happy to see a little drop before the weekend. I’m going to really watch this weekend’s calories and try to do a couple short workouts.
10/05 – 144.5
10/06 – 145.5
10/07 – 146 – Ouch! I know I had extra sodium this weekend, but I also know I’m adding extra snacks during the day too. I bought some grape tomatoes and grapes yesterday to keep my hands off the pretzels and mini chocolate bars I’ve been popping in my mouth instead of a cigarette. I’ll be drinking plenty of water today.

I'm totally up for another round! I joined in for the first time on Round 90 and lost 5.8lb. Great incentive to try again!

ROUND 90: 5.8lb loss

This time I'm shooting for 6lb which is somewhere between my target last time and what I actually acheived.

ROUND 91
Starting weight 19st 1lb (267lb)
Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 - 19st 0.5lb (0.5lb loss) - A good day overall! Busy day at work so lots of walking, and was quite conservative with my calories. Will be repeating my couch to 5k run from Saturday tonight, determined to do it all (unless I get chased by another dog!)
10/01 - 19st 0.3lb (0.2lb loss) - Aaaaargh!! I mean, a loss is a loss but I am soooo close to the next stone barrier. And once I see 18st on my scale I NEVER want to see 19 again. Did my repeat c25k run last night and it was amazing. My fitness has improved so much since I started. I mean I need to keep at it, but five weeks ago I never would have believe I could run for eight minutes non-stop, twice. And I didn't get to that insensible stage of losing my breath either. 💪💪
10/02 - 18st 12.5lb (1.8lb loss) - Yesssssssssssss!!!! Fully anticipating a bounce back tomorrow but for today, I'm going to enjoy this victory!
10/03 - 18st 12lb (0.5lb loss) - So that uptick didn't come today, although I'm sure it's just around the corner. I hope I can stay under 19st when it comes though. I had a wonderful non-scale victory yesterday - I completed W5R3 of couch to 5k which is 5min walk, 20min run, 5min walk. Possibly the longest I've run in my life, 100% definitely the longest as an adult. I did it! And I felt great doing it! It was hard but not impossible. I am so proud of myself, and so impressed by the increase in my fitness in just five weeks. This success seemed utterly inconceivable then!
10/04 - 18st 11lb (-1lb) - Hooray! I am only ½lb away from a 3stone (42lb/19kg) total loss! I so hope I get there in the next few days, I know I'm due for a little bump up but I don't want one! 4lb loss for Round 91 so far so right on track for my goal. 🤞
10/05 - 18st 11¼lb (+¼lb) - Honestly, if that's my bounce, I'll take that. Doing another c25k session today so fingers crossed for onwards and downwards tomorrow!
10/06 - 18st 10¼lb (-1lb) - Yes!!! I did it!! 3st total loss!! Anticipatig a bump tomorrow due to some poor choices (mainly marshmallows) today but feel very committed to getting it back under control.
10/07 -18st 9¾lb (-½lb) - I didn't deserve a loss at all, I was expecting a gain. Maybe it'll come tomorrow instead.

OSW: 164.2
GW: 140 (will adjust if needed once I reach this)

Goal this round: Get back on track with eating and water and workouts (even if just taking walks regularly). Lose the excess weight I've put on the last month (~6lbs so maybe not all of it) before BF gets home from AZ (tentatively scheduled for 17 Oct but could be as early as 11 Oct) and to feel better about myself by my birthday (9 Oct)

10/07 - DNW - Stayed night at BF's so no scale. Pup and I went for a walk on Friday and yesterday. Yesterday was really long because a stray dog kept following us. She isn't fixed yet (I think we can, now, but there was something medically we couldn't risk putting her under for) and the other dog didn't look it, either. So I got to the kids mom's place and she scared the dog off (the way I came from) so I had to take the long way around the opposite direction. Luckily, I just bought her a harness so it was much easier to control her and not have to worry about a collar slipping off and her running. Food wasn't great this weekend but I cooked some breakfast egg casserole Friday and some turkey&black bean tacos which I'm still slowly munching on. I have some other foods to cook this week, minus Wednesday. My lovely neighbors are taking me out for a birthday dinner (: A bit of a splurge I'm okay with. Just means I have to behave the rest of the week!

Previous Day's Comments

09/30 - BF left for AZ for 2-3 weeks for work so I'm dog sitting at his house. No scale. This round ends on my birthday so I'm going to try to not discourage myself with numbers and just try to focus on intuitive eating instead. Yesterday was bad for me and I'm sure I'm WAY up. I just couldn't satisfy my hunger no matter what. But I did take the dog for a walk so I got some movement in. Today is focused on water and eating in moderation (I have leftovers I don't want to waste since it was an expensive dinner for the early birthday celebration for BF's youngest. They have veggies and protein so I'll try to eat those before I indulge on the yummy rice.) Trying to get more movement in today as well. I have no major meetings so I'm going to try to hit the gym for a small easy workout.
10/01 - Not as horrid as I thought but I'm so close to my highest weight. Eek. But we had a retirement party for a guy I'm close to and I got peer pressured into cake and ice cream. So I took a small piece of cake with as little icing as possible and a small scoop of ice cream. Then I did a run/walk for a mile in the gym. I didn't get to go grocery shopping yesterday but luckily I forgot my lunch leftovers in the work fridge so I have those for lunch today (not ideal but its not vending machine food). I'm eating a couple salami sticks from vending machine since I woke up with a grumbling stomach I've fought for about 2 hours now (I know its hunger for sure) while I drink coffee. Hopefully I can get a quick workout in again today during lunch. Tonight I'll be dog sitting so maybe, if it doesn't storm, I'll take the pup to get a harness and go for a walk. Worst case, I'll get the harness for Friday, since I'm off work.
10/02 - Last night was interesting. We had a chance of scattered thunderstorms. Then, as soon as I finished cooking dinner, sirens. It was blue skies for about 10 minutes after sirens (as I gather what I know my boyfriend would want me to try to save and get the dog out from her hiding spot) and then it hit. Apparently there was a rotation a few miles away from the house. Luckily no damage or anything crazy. Unfortunately, my adrenaline was sky high and my food was cold so I only ate about half my dinner and then splurged on a chocolate bar. All well within calories but still makes me wonder what will happen. I don't feel so bloated today so that's a plus. I made 2 servings of my dinner so I had lunch for today but now I have 1 1/2 servings. I don't know if I should wait on cooking up the beef and zoodles tonight or if I should freeze my half serving for Thursday night/Friday. I'm afraid I won't have enough for lunch tomorrow so I guess that will be determined by how much I eat at lunch today. It is a big ol' filet of salmon so I doubt I'll finish and will have plenty. Water was okay, got my 66oz in but I need about 10 more to reach my goal. I had time last night, I just didn't. Oops. Not dog sitting tonight to save on some gas and maybe get some sleep so hopefully I can focus on me.
10/03 - Scale flashed 159.8 a few times taunting me with my 150s again. I can't believe that 145-150 used to be my stuck place and now it seems I keep going to the 160s. Until late 2018/early 2019, I'd never been in the 160s before. Ah well, I'm on a downward trend. I ended up at my neighbors playing Rummikub until it was too late so we 4 split a large pizza. I got veggies on mine and only had my two allocated slices (though I could've eaten way more) to stay within calories. The wonderful thing about splitting food with others! Wondering if that 159.8 number was telling me what I would've had if I ate my salmon and veggie dinner instead? But, I needed lunch for today and I was helping pay for the pizza. Hopefully I can squeeze in a workout today, despite it being so cold (finally hit 40*F here) and I won't want to go outside, even just to walk the quarter mile to our on-site gym at work. If not, I'll bundle up and take the dog for a walk tonight, weather permitting.

Round 90 was the worst of the the last few rounds. I’m going to keep joining though and keep trying. I need to get my diet under control and start doing some form of exercise again. I think I need to update my excel sheet and start tracking my numbers again that was motivating me to see the trends going down.

Day/Weight/Comment
Sept 30 - 190.0 - I was hoping never to see that number again. I need to stay away from the pip and chips.
Oct 1 - 189.8
Oct 2 - 187.4 - I finally got in all my water, was active for 15 minutes and stayed within calorie goal yesterday.
Oct 3 - 186.4 - I know this is all water weight, but the food news is I’m getting my water in and I haven’t had a coke since Sunday.
Oct 4 - 187.2 - not sure what caused that bump up.
Oct 5 - 187.6 - didn’t get all my water in yesterday or my 15 minutes of exercise. Have to do better today.
Oct 6 - no scale
Oct 7 - 189.7 - way too many chips and pizza slices this weekend.

09/30: 302.4 lbs (+3.3) … I had a similar uptick at the start of last round. I overcame it then, I’ll do it again this time.

10/01: 301.9 lbs (-0.5) … Some uptick recovery. Had a good run this morning in the rain (Couch to 5k Week 7 Day 2 complete). Got two compliments about my weight loss at work

10/02: 302.4 lbs (+0.5) … Yesterday’s progress, erased. Likely water retention due to more exercise -- was pretty active yesterday. Ran in the morning, walked at lunch, then spent 1.5 hours playing Beat Saber in the evening. Wound up at around 17,000 steps for the day.

10/03: 300.1 lbs (-2.3) … There we go. Almost back to my round start weight. Completed Couch to 5k Week 7 Day 3 this morning.

10/04: 301.7 lbs (+1.6) … meh.

10/05: 299.5 lbs (-2.2) … Back down to sub-300 thankfully. Still up a little for the round though.

10/06: 297.3 lbs (-2.2) … This is what I wanted to see! Now to keep it off for the remainder of the round, heh. Completed Couch to 5k Week 8 Day 1 this morning.

10/07: 298.7 lbs (+1.4) … Another uptick, but at least I’m still below 300. I’ll take it.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/30 – 125.2 – same weight for the 3rd day in a row. I haven’t been the best this weekend, so I might see that in the next couple of days. I am at my goal of 125 but would like to lose just a couple more pounds and maintain between 120-125.
10/01 – 125.2
10/02 – 124.8
10/03 – 124.6 – I have actually been eating a little more the last few days (around 100 calories more) and it seems to have gotten the scale going down again.
10/04 – 124.2!
10/05 – 123.8
10/06 – 124.4 – I’m bad about posting my updates over the weekend, but I do still weigh every day and keep track.
10/07 – 124.8 – Still within my maintenance range. I don’t like the upwards trend, but I know that it’s because I splurged a little too much this weekend.

RSW 291.4

09/30 290.2 I wasn’t expecting that big of a drop today.

10/01 290.6 I expected a little bounce when I had chicken soup for lunch. I’m sure that it will be gone in a day or two and will hopefully take my cold with it.

10/02 289.8 I’m still fighting my cold but I’m managing to stay on track. This is the lowest that I’ve weighed in nearly 16 years. I was about this weight when I met my husband and a little higher than this when I got pregnant with my middle child.

10/03 288.8 I had a lot of energy yesterday, but my appetite was low. I got my new exercise bike yesterday and used it right away. I only did 20 minutes because I didn’t want to over push myself. My plan is to do 30 minutes a day.

10/04 289.0 I’m feeling dehydrated this morning. I don’t think I drank enough for how active I was yesterday. I’m a little sore and still fighting the last of my cold so I think I’ll take a rest day today.

10/05 287.8 I should have taken a rest day yesterday, but I didn’t. I will be taking it easy today.

10/06 287.0 I took a rest day yesterday and my sore hip is feeling much better. I have errands to run today and I’ll see if I can get some biking in afterwards or if my hip needs another day.

10/07 287.4 No hugs needed it’s a bounce from my activity level yesterday that included a kettlebell workout. My nsv was adding in an additional set of kettlebells.
