JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 97

I have set myself a new goal for 2019 and a new UGW.
Things are looking good for my revised 2019 goal. I have hit it thrice this Round. Happy Scale has shown a steady downward trend since the end of July, despite having one or two lapses last round.

Round 97 (19 for me)
Taking a mini diet break for the Thanksgiving weekend, but I’ll be back on track on Monday.

R97 (19) – SW: 175.6 – EW:???

Goals for this round:
1) Enjoy the holiday weekend.
2) Log carefully and maintain a calorie deficit (starting Sunday).
3) Walk or exercise 30+ minutes most days.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/29 – 177.6 – Okay, that’s a big bounce for one day, but I’m not going to stress about it. I still have a house guest, more company coming later today, and a birthday party tomorrow, as well as a fridge full of really yummy leftovers, so I’m going to relax and enjoy it all. A few days of indulgence and then I’m back on track.
11/30 – 179.6 – Interesting. This is the biggest spike I’ve seen in nine months of generally consistent tracking (excluding vacations when I didn’t track my food or my weight). Experience tells me it’s mostly fluid retention, but it’s still startling to see. However, it’s just another data point for analysis. Friday was another splurge day. I was way over my calorie limit with lots of sodium, carbs, and sugar. Japanese takeout lunch, salty snacks, several hi-cal desserts. Board games and movies instead of a walk in the park. A couple of glasses of wine and not nearly enough water. I know that if this becomes a habit, I’m headed back up to where I started. So the choice is mine: continue to slack off and see a real gain or get back on track and keep working toward my goal.
12/01 – 178.8 – Moving back down after a day of more moderate eating. Spent the rainy day getting the Christmas boxes down from the attic and doing some decorating. Took another day off from logging, but paid more attention to portion sizes. Ended a lovely holiday weekend with mulled wine and the last of the pumpkin pie.
12/02 – 178.2 – Back to logging and maintaining a calorie deficit today. It was nice to take a break, but I’m ready to get back on track and work my way back down. (I generally type my comments each day in a Word document and post them at the end of the day. Between the company and the wine, I didn’t get them posted on MFP on Saturday or Sunday night. So I’m trying to get that done a little earlier tonight.)
12/03 – 178.6 – We got our first snow yesterday – it’s gorgeous! It was too windy to walk today, so I planned to grade some papers. Wound up taking a badly needed nap instead, so I may be up again working on those papers tonight. Hopefully I can squeeze in a walk tomorrow. Back to logging and maintaining a deficit, chipping away at that that holiday bounce.

11/29 60.7kg was over calories yesterday (can't blame Thanksgiving as I live in Malawi 🙄🇲🇼) but will not be today because I'm going to be too busy! Gym done and how I'm looking forward to the weekend...
11/30 59.55kg. Getting back under 60kg is great. Had a lovely night last night with my bestie but not enough sleep! Going to keep busy today so I don't snack.
12/01 60.1kg. Went a little over calories again last night. No real change in the last 6 weeks. Will keep busy today and focus.
12/02 59.95kg. Mission to keep under 60kg the whole week. Gym done already
12/03 60.15kg which is not a problem. Calories and macros perfect yesterday and I'm planning to do the same today
12/04 60.7kg which has no reason to be there as it was all good yesterday. I'm sure it will be off soon. Gym done

12/02 - 155.6 (+2.6) totally expected after a long weekend in Switzerland eating melted cheese with fresh bread most days In fact I stopped eating Sunday lunchtime because I couldn't face any more food! so this is a week of extreme dieting, drinkings lots of water and slowly starting exercising again following 2 weeks off with a pulled muscle in my hip and an arthritis fare.
12/03 154.4 (-1.2 lbs) down a little but I ate too much yesterday evening and I was over on calories, I was tired and couldn't face cooking anything so I ended up eating random stuff from the fridge.... I'm realizing tiredness is the worse for my diet as I tend to overcompensate with food (and the wrong kind of food!). Today I'm planning on going to the gym during my lunch break, I'm looking forward to it.

12/04 154.2 (-0.2) over calories yesterday, I logged consistently during the day, but I was running around yet again in the evening and therefore I ended up being too tired to cook sensible food. At least I have prepared fresh vegetable soup for tonight which I will I just have to warm up when I get home. I'm happy I went to the gym yesterday, it was a good workout between the indoor cycling and elliptical although I miss my running, I'm quite grumpy without it

12/03 - 137.3lb (-0.3lb) Decided to weigh this morning for the first time in ages - slightly down from my one off weigh last round and was actually pleasantly surprised to be honest as expected this to be more. Christmas season snacking and socialising has started in earnest but want to make sure it doesn't get out of control over the next few weeks. So not necessarily aiming to lose - will be very happy to maintain through until the New Year. Just so need to get back to all you lovely ladies and gents and stay accountable.
Out on Friday for Escape Room and meal with work and aiming to stay away from the large pile of mince pies and sweets now in the office on a daily basis!

12/04 - 135.6lb (-1.7lb) A day back on plan, plenty of water, logging and a decent gym session last night - enjoyed looking at the scale this morning! More of the same today and tomorrow planned too Out on Friday night and in reality I'll be happy to finish the round on Sunday somewhere around here and then starting a new round on a Monday morning.

SW R97: 144.5

Day/Weight/Comment

11/29 – 146.5 – I had a wonderful Thanksgiving and have some leftovers to take care of this weekend. I’ll try to drink extra water today and be mindful of the leftovers.
11/30 – 148 – Ouch! I really didn’t want to step on the scale today, but I’m not going to change my habits if I don’t face the consequences. My family leaves for home today after the OSU/Michigan game. Today I’m really going to try to stay away from the goodies.
12/1 – 147 – Back to the calorie counting tomorrow. We finished the Thanksgiving leftovers today, so I’m hoping it doesn’t go up anymore.
12/2 – 147
12/3 – 145.5 – On the way back down. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is my real weight after the last week and a half, but I’ll be drinking plenty of water in hopes it might go down a little more tomorrow. Today is my first day back to work since last Tuesday, so I should be able to stay on plan.
12/4 – 146 – I drank my water, watched my calories, and did a short work out for the first time in a week. Oh well, hopefully it will go back down tomorrow.

Back for Round 97

Intro:
Round Stats
Strategy: Up the hydrating foods. Fruit with breakfast. Salad/veggies as bulk of lunch. Healthy dinner. Limit/eliminate processed carbs and sugars. Zero calorie intake after 8pm. Strength exercises 3 days on/1 day rest. Regular movement through day to compensate for desk job.

R97 Challenges: Getting back on track after Thanksgiving. I'll be starting December off with a Hydration Challenge to increase the amount of plant based hydration in my diet.

R97 SW: 145.0
R97 GW: 144.0

11/29 (F) 145.3 (Trend Weight 145.9) Not too bad a bump for Thanksgiving. Seems the increased activity (even with skipping the strength workouts) and my lightened up dinner menu was effective. Forced myself to have a light breakfast, and nibbled on raw veggies for lunch while prepping dinner. Are moderately, but it was still pretty carb and sodium heavy. Didn't get as much water as I should have. May see another bump tomorrow from the leftovers, but I did get both a strength workout and some aerobics in today.

11/30 (S) 145.6 (Trend Weight 145.9) Leftovers. Pretty much figured that. Glad it wasn't any worse. There's still a few left in the fridge, but I'm done with the heated up plates and turkey sandwiches. I can work what's left into lighter meals. Today is a strength workout rest day, but I'll shoot for getting my steps in a a short round of aerobics.

12/01 (S) 145.5 (Trend Weight 145.8) Ok. 1\10. I'll take it. Yesterday was on the high side of my calorie range and sodium was up a tad, but I was pretty close to the eating plan. I did get in a 20 minute aerobic session. It was late evening and I had to force it, but I got it in. Trend weight pulled down another 10th - so confident I'm past the holiday bump.

12/02 (M) 145.0 (Trend Weight 145.7) Yes! Mindful of my eating yesterday. Did not feel too well, so slugged my steps and workout. Today is day one of the Quench 5-Day Plan. Not as much of a diet as it is a way to increase more efficient plant-based hydration.

Morning smoothie was only 97 calories, and not particularly filling - so probably not a sustainable breakfast substitution. The plan makes using that morning smoothie as breakfast optional. I'll either need to make it more substantial, or make sure breakfast is light to stay within calorie range.

12/03 (T) 144.8 (Trend Weight 145.6) This is looking promising. I wasn't 100% on plan. Hubby wanted "Hamburger Glop" for dinner, which uses cream of mushroom soup and goes over biscuits or noodles. Pretty high starchy carb and high sodium. Being on plan for most of the day let me work that in and still stay within my set range.

Today is Day 2 of the Quench Plan. So far so good - and as you see, it kept me in range for the unexpected change in dinner menu. I'm going to try to bulk up my morning smoothie and see if that helps the mid-morning "I'm freaking hungry!"

12/04 (W) 145.2 (Trend Weight 145.6) Combination of a late night snack and normal fluctuation. Maybe stress. Had a crisis with one of my nonprofit organization's participants yesterday. Still going to be working through it today. Had skipped a couple of workouts, but got back on track with a 30 minute aerobic session. Felt good.

Day 3 of the Quench Plan. Haven't started moving yet today, but intentions are good 😊 Yesterday was good. I added a handful of oats to the smoothie and it made a huge difference. I'm not following 100% Lots of new things, imagine it will be a process like any other health habit.

11/29 165.0 lbs (1470 calories, 8794 steps,) I didn't splurge to bad but it was Thanksgiving. Kids and their families home all weekend. Lots of food around and I will be making. Plan on enjoying a little. (+ .6lbs)

11/30 165.8 lbs (1537 calories in, 10989 steps) here it comes. So no exercise with family here and to much food. But enjoying cooking and hosting and that is why I diet in between so one can enjoy life in the now. I will get back to it on Monday. (+. 1.4 lbs so far)
12/1 166.6 lbs. (2000 calories in, 14000 steps) no exercise and more cooking (+2 lbs)

12/2 168.0 lbs (2378 calories in, 14,221 steps) family finally left late afternoon and they were good at finishing most goodies up or taking them with but I did splurge yesterday on calories. Did try cross country sking after our blizzard but it had freezing rain first and so the conditions are slippery only made it a mile. (+ 3.6 lbs)

12/3 165.8 (1195 calories in, 16,963 steps) took my back out just getting out of bed yesterday. So slow going and no sking but did get my steps in by taking down fall decorations and putting up Winter decorations. (+1.4 lbs)

Day/Weight/Comment

11/29: 284.5 lbs (+1.3) … Up a bit here as I ate late the night previous. I was really good through Thanksgiving, but ate light and ended up famished around 11pm.

11/30: DNW

12/01: 283.0 lbs (-1.5) … I was a little surprised to see this. I’ve been kind of lazy this weekend and my eating habits haven’t been great. Below maintenance, but above my budget. New low though, so I’m pretty happy.

12/02: 283.6 lbs (+0.6) … Had a really good day today. We got about 2 feet of snow, so I wound up taking a day off to watch my daughter, who had a snow day. Played outside with her for about 2 hours and was very pleased to see how well I was able to keep up with her… even with extra snow shoveling to build her a mountain of snow to play on!

12/03: 282.7 lbs (-0.9) … Another new low. Despite being a bit more lax in my eating habits for the past week, I’m still losing weight. Going to try to tighten that back up now that my time off is over. I also want to push my activity a bit more, been lazy on that front as well, outside of snow shoveling.

12/04: 283.8 lbs (+1.1) … an uptick due to some ill-advised late night snacking near midnight while I was taking care of a sudden home repair issue. Really doesn’t mean much, thankfully. Very happy this morning, I’m wearing a size XL shirt for the first time in maybe 8-9 years.

Edit: Not that I particularly care about the "disagree" this received, I just wanted to clarify that I called late-night snacking "ill-advised" because it goes against my current plan. Everyone's plan is different but I try not to eat after 8pm.

11/29 - 172.2
Yes, Thanksgiving, I ate too much. Back on track today, though I am going to have one modest slice of pumpkin pie. But no more dressing! Turkey leftovers, of course. I have to bake a cake for a celebration of life for a friend tomorrow, but i can’t sample, so that works. Definitely not shopping! (I may have to buy some yarn on line, though — I’m itching to knit.) wishing you all a fabulous weekend, whether you’re part of the post-TG crowd or elsewhere!

11/30 -
Forgot to weigh before eating. My schedule is off — a wonderful friend died yesterday, much too young, of pancreatic cancer, and I’m going to a Celebration of Life for another friend today. I couldn’t get to sleep last night — many thoughts banging around in my head.

12/1 - 172
Thanks, everyone, for your kind thoughts. The Celebration was both sad and uplifting, which is, of course, the point. I ate too many comfort foods — I.e., chocolate things — and felt bloated all evening. Onward.

12/2 - 173
There’s the delayed reaction from Thurs-Sat. It’s ok, but also set off blaring alarm bells and I think I’m finally awake. Plan in place for today and the rest of the week re. food. I’m hoping to get to the Y today, but have the Master Gardener final Wed. and a commissioned painting to finish by Friday, so I may not get there. If not, I have promised myself to put on my warmers and walk the 20-min neighborhood loop two or three times during the afternoon. Hold me to that!

12/3 - 172.4
I didn’t get my outdoor walks (icy rain) but did walk all over Menards! Also stuck to my food goals other than some air popped popcorn in the evening. Fiber!

12/4 - 172.4
DH made a fabulous high P, low cal dinner last night — roasted root veggies with chicken and pomegranate. Yum! Leftovers tonight, then I’m off to take my Master Gardener final exam. I plan to hit the Y on the way to get my blood moving.

11/29 162.9 Thanksgiving bump. Should be gone in a day or two. Just one more dinner this weekend. Still to dreary to walk too much but we'll see. Working from home today, so far still in pj's, but working on a powerpoint.

11/30 163.0
12/01 163.2

12/02 163.0 I swear I am retaining at least 2 pounds of water and have been for over a week. Oh well. It will come off. Why do I struggle with this idea EVERY TIME? I walked 5 on Saturday, and none yesterday because I had my last Thanksgiving with my Dad and step-Mom. Great day with them and the Chiefs crushed the Raiders. I won't be able to go to the gym tonight too many errands. So I'll walk tomorrow, it's supposed to be warmer anyway. I track my walking thru MapmyFitness but keep a log from that. I have walked over 500 miles this year and I still have all of December. Just think if I hadn't pulled that stupid muscle I might be at 600 miles. That's kind of incredible for me to think about. Ninety percent of that is outside, in the cold, in the rain occasionally, fell three times on the ice last winter. All over the country - Mississippi, Colorado, Washington D.C., Kansas City, St. Louis and Phoenix! It's December time for reflection.

12/03 162.9 Anything down is good. This is so frustrating. I wasn't very hungry yesterday and was more than 200 calories under. I'm going for a walk this afternoon. We're having a treat day here at work for a birthday. We cater to the birthday person's likes for a theme... she likes unhealthy crap. I made pigs in a blanket with cocktail weenies and croissants. I didn't have a single one while making them. I'm not sure if there is anything I will be able to eat. Oh well. I have my oatmeal for breakfast and just realized I left my lunch in the fridge at home... so I'll find something.

12/04 162.9 Ever wonder if your scale is broken? Just me? I went for a wonderful walk yesterday after work, 4.6 miles. I would have gone the full 5 but I was already running late. I did well enough with the treat day. Tracked everything as well as possible. So 1 wing, 2 meatballs and a LOT of guacamole (counted 7 chips) and fruit.
Today is another sunny December day, I will be leaving at 4 or earlier if I can get away with it. I think 4 miles would be perfect.
