We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

2/8 121.0 Lun-ner yesterday at Golden Corral, guild board (bored!) meeting this morning
2/9 120.0 May go to champagne brunch with DH. Must not drink ALL of the champagne! 10:30AM and he’s still asleep. Wish I could do that!
2/10 120.0 We finally went to brunch at noon. That was my OMAD. Water, coffee and 2 glasses of champagne. I slept until 8 this morning - 8 hours 22 minutes! My one hour inactivity warning chirped 5 minutes after I got out of bed! Should have been jogging in my sleep!
2/11 120.5 Amy and I did the seated row and my back was aching last night but today nothing hurts. So, yay???
2/12 120.5
2/13 121.5 Greek salad for lun-ner after a good workout yesterday. I have the other half for lunch today.
2/14 121.0 Happy Valentine’s Day (and Happy sweet 16 to our youngest granddaughter) This is just another day in our house, my birthday is coming up.
2/15 122.0 We went to the movies, got popcorn and we ate the WHOLE thing! First popcorn in almost 3 years. I’m okay with it, I know it’s temporary. Valentine potluck tonight so am relatively certain I will be up tomorrow. I’m making keto lasagna so at least that will be on my plan!
2/16 122.5 Expected and will probably go up more before it goes down. Special event coming up

See you all tomorrow in round 105 - my 100th!

eyesopennow · February 2020

02/07 242.6. Feels good to be taking steps to address the weight issue instead of continuing to surrender to it. Logging food is a must this time. Decided I wasn't hungry at breakfast so with the exception of a splash of skim in my coffee I have bee 15 hours between meals. Time for lunch now! Will keep it "between the lines."

02/08 240.8, morning blood sugar 117. I'll take it. Logging food did indeed make me consider choices and alternatives as the day waxed late and I had fewer calories left in the budget. Weekends are ALWAYS a problem for me, though, so I need to keep my head in the game.

02/09 238.8 morning blood sugar 112. This surprises me, as I gave in and ate 4 slices of french bread with dinner. (Blue cheese and honey drizzle, my resistance was futile.) Needless to say, I hadn't prepared for this splurge so I was 300 calories over target. I have to remember that, for me, the end result of the day starts with what decisions I make at breakfast. I also have to remember that for whatever reason it takes my body two days to show the consequences of a bad eating day, so I can't get too happy with today until I see tomorrow.

02/10 239.8. more later.

02/11 239.9 blood sugar 99. Well the sugar says I ate okay yesterday, even if the scale is still protesting about the weekend. Stayed under 1300 calories yesterday. But I woke up hungry this morning so I am going to have to plan carefully to avoid temptations. I see lots of water in my future!

02/12 no weigh in. Very rough day / night, spent a lot of it at emergency room with Wyfe. She has some very weird stuff going on with her blood chemistry. PCP saw her yesterday and called an ambulance, potassium levels so high they were afraid her heart might stop beating on the way to hospital. Many hours and many tests later they concluded she is not in imminent danger and she was sent home with instructions to see a hematologist as soon as she can schedule it. Aging is not for sissies. Anyway, as it applies to me, I ate junk yesterday and when I got home I completely spazzed out with emotional eating. The scale and I were not on speaking terms this morning.

02/13 240.4. This is out of hand. No breakfast today. Lunch today was 280 calories. Tossed salad with dried cranberries added, lite dressing, 2 campari tomatoes, SF jello, banana.

02/14 240.2 blood sugar 97. Happy valentine's day, everyone! Happy Friday!

02/15 238.0, blood sugar 138. Sugar is due to coconut cake and chocolate covered strawberries, a valentine's tradition for us that's older than my diabetes. But with everything going on now I didn't want to "not do it just this year." I have to work Sunday, so today is my weekend to shop and do chores.

02/16 238.2 forgot to check sugar before eating. So down 4.4 pounds for this round!

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 - 170.9 Boys went to bed an hour later than normal and I didn't have the motivation after to go to the gym unfortunately.
02/08 - 170.0 Gathered the motivation to go to the gym even after a long day of training at work. The scale messed around in the 169's before settling at 170 even. Finger's crossed I break into the 160's tomorrow!
02/09 - 170.6 Well, I let myself cheat a little too much yesterday. I'm surprised this is all the gain I had since yesterday. I'll probably see the consequences of last night on my scale tomorrow too ...
02/10 - 170.0 Awesome! No more self-sabotaging.
02/11 - 169.5 Finally broke into the 160's!!
02/12 - 169.8 Well, I self-sabotaged yesterday. Too much pizza at a Survivor lunch party. Thankful to still be in the 160's. I hope I can keep this for the rest of the round!t
02/13 - 170.2 Can't say I'm surprised. I need to work on my self-control.
02/14 - 170.2 Made good decisions yesterday! Going to keep it going today! Realllyyyy wanting to end this round in the 169's.
02/15 -168.9 Wow! I didn’t exptect this this morning. My SO got my favorite snacks for me for Valentine’s Day and I did not eat them all in one sitting as I would have previously! Stayed under my calorie goal and got a workout it. Let’s hope I can keep it off!
02/16 - 168.2 I went out last night and did really good until I ate a whole sleeve of thin mints before bed. Completely shocked by this decrease. I'll probably have an increase the next few days. Overall very satisfied with my round results. I've really struggled with self-control and self-sabotaging this round.

February goal: 190
10 day goal: Lose 2-3 lbs and keep sodium and sugar intake under control
Looking forward to more changes this round! I have adjusted goals since I didn’t meet all of goals in Round 103. Regardless, I am ready again for the journey.
Feb 7: 197.8 Wow! Didn’t expect that, although I finished up my period and had a good day keeping under sodium intake. I hope the rest of the challenge goes well!
Feb. 8: 199.1 Overindulged some chocolate! Thankfully, I am still in the 190s.
Feb. 9
Feb. 10: 199.9 Didn’t feel well the day before yesterday, so I didn’t weigh in. I think I need to up my water intake again.
Feb. 11: 198.5 Increasing my water intake has helped.
Feb. 12: 198.5
Feb. 13: 198.5
Feb. 14: 198.3 Not sure what is causing the stalemate, but I know for certain I am losing inches. I will have to go jean shopping soon!
Feb. 15: 198.5 ...I’m out of positive ways to feel about this...
Feb. 16: Yeah, I’m sick again. Poor way to end this round, but I refuse to be stressed over my weight.

@CamandJarvis That cabbage and sausage sounds a lot like “Egg roll in a bowl.” Easy to make and filling but since I’m low carb we skip the rice. I’ve made it with ground pork, ground beef or chopped leftover chicken. Always good - even for lunch the next day!

Funny enough, they had actual egg rolls as an afternoon snack while they planned dinner -- that might have been the inspiration! My neighbor's BF said it was his favorite meal growing up but he hates rice so he goes without rice as well. I tried it with rice since I haven't really ever eaten apple cider vinegar and it was a little overpowering at first (not bad, just something I'm not used to). The rice helped tone it down enough I could enjoy it until I get used to the flavor. It may be something I try for days that are going to be lunch or dinner-heavy from planned outings.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07 - 371.6 - No change from yesterday. Slow and steady. I've lost almost 17 lbs. in the 4 weeks since starting this *Give me 10 days* challenge.
02/08 - 372.1 - A slight uptick, prolly from a little cheat day. Mom wanted a donut, so I bought one for myself. Put me very close to my caloric goal.
02/09 - 375.0 - Huge gain. I had an urge for pizza and cheesey bread. And ate most of it. If I start going down again over the next few days, I'm fine with the occasional splurge. If not, I may have to rethink the idea of a cheat day... at least to this degree.
02/10 - 373.8 - Coming back down after a really bad eating weekend. It's ok as long as it only happens very seldom.
02/11 - 372.8 - I'm staying with my initial thoughts that the occasional cheat day is ok, especially if it slows down a weight loss that is too rapid.
02/12 - 370.8 - Back to the downward trend. I might still make my goal to get under 370 before this round.
02/13 - 371.6 - I thought yesterday's drop was a bit much. So a 2-day drop of 1.2 seems more realistic. I'm good!
02/14 - 370.8 - Right direction again.
02/15 - 371.3 - It has to be stress. Job hunting sucks. Good thing is that I have 3 interviews this week.
02/16 - 368.0 - Made my goal. And started back to the gym... just to use the eliptical for 45 minutes (about 6500 steps). No stress on the knee means I can keep exercising. Good way to end this round.

MarisaMSimon · February 2020

Hey everyone! I took a long break from these challenges, but I've continued to weigh in daily on Happy Scale and celebrated my small victories to myself lol. However, since I was hospitalized late last year for something that could've taken my life, I've been having trouble losing weight! I think my body has been trying to recuperate after that and plus I got the flu and sinusitis on Christmas and I'm still taking meds from that to this day. I want to have some additional accountability to get these extra 6ish pounds off that I've been struggling with for 4 months now since I was hospitalized!

Age: 28

Round Results
R104: SW 182.6 EW 181.4 (-1.2 lbs)

Day/Weight/Comment
02/07: 182.6 (I gained 0.2 pounds from last week! I have lost inches, and my smallest jeans are starting to get baggy but the scale has increased. TOM is coming on Sunday so I know that’s why. I did an intense kickboxing class last night and ate some potato corn chowder for dinner last night!)

02/08: 184.2 (I save some calories for the weekend and last night I made a homemade cheeseburger and some baked French fries. I’m guessing that was a TOM craving 😂. No workout yesterday since it was my rest day!)

02/09: 185.8 (TOM came yesterday afternoon as I expected. I did not workout yesterday as it was my second rest day and ran some errands. I had a bean burrito for dinner last night and relaxed!)

02/10: 185.6 (A slight tick downwards. I’m hoping for a lot of weight down this week! Let’s see how it goes! I did a Zumba workout at home for an hour and I had some roasted pork loin, green beans and salad for dinner last night.)

02/11: 181.8 (Umm what happened? 😂 this kind of shocked me! I think it’s the most weight I’ve lost after/during a cycle. I had gained 2 weeks back to back because of my cycle. I’m hoping it goes back to normal! I did a Zumba class at the gym last night and ate honey garlic chicken breast, rice, asparagus and grapes for dinner!)

02/12: 180.4 (I think I’m dreaming! I’ve been struggling for months and I guess I just had to come back to this group for my weight to budge. Only 4.4 pounds left until I get to the lowest weight since my hospitalization. Anyway, I did a 1 hour kickboxing class at the gym and I had Caesar salad and a slice of broccoli cheddar chicken pot pie for dinner!)

02/13: 180.8 (Not bad! I usually gain on Thursday’s because I do a Power Circuit class at the gym and I’m sore the next day from all the lunges and weight training. I had a very good food day yesterday and ate to plan.)

02/14: 179.8 (it’s my official weigh in and the first time I’m seeing the 170’s in 2020! Since last Friday, I lost 20.8 pounds. I’m so happy I got through this horrible stretch of time! I did a kickboxing class at the gym and ate to plan. Happy Friday everyone!

02/15: 179.8 (I always gain on a Friday into Saturday but this is a very nice change to maintain from yesterday. I did not work out yesterday as it was one of my rest days and ate to plan. I made cinnamon sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting and it was soooo good. I only had one though for 266 calories!)

02/16: 181.4 (This is an expected gain. I save all my calories for the weekend and I had a couple of yummy treats! Last night I got some Greek food and ended up getting a chicken gyro which was 1000% worth it! Overall, my trend is going down and I’m so happy for that! No workout again yesterday since it was my second rest day.)

Total weight loss this round: 1.2 pounds

02/08 …..192.0 …..

02/09 …..193.0 …..

02/10 …..193.1 …..

02/12 …..194.6 ….. Walked 83 minutes burning 516 extra calories. I burned 2746 Calories total for the day which is more than I ate I walked 7.3 Miles total for the day which was 17,243 Total Steps. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 25 minutes but woke up refreshed

02/13 …..194.2….. My last 5 morning fasting numbers including today’s are: 279, 259, 235, 217, 207. As I reduce my carbs my numbers get better, however, going too low causes the dangerous sugar drops I was experiencing after I got out of whack (after Christmas). Last night, I changed up my final meal after closing out so my carbs & cals were a bit higher than expected (I finished a leftover). Numbers as follows: 1526 Calories In / 2647 Calories Out. 87 Net Carbs. 13,868 Total Steps & 5.87 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 6 hours & 8 minutes and felt pretty good. I walked for 73 minutes at a very brisk pace for me and burned 597 extra calories. We shall see how further reductions in carbs & calories work for me at this stage.

02/14 …..194.2 ….. No change on the scale but I’m not surprised because it was movie night with my son. I spent the evening making memories with him that belong to he and I only. One’s I hope he will never forget. My calories were good but my carbs still higher than I’d hoped but that is not surprising for movie night. My glucose was 203 this morning. Still dropping slightly but I have a long way to go. Doing it slowly as my body adjusts. Today I hope to keep it a little more low carb but it’s Valentine’s Day and anything can happen! Yesterday’s stats: 1646 Calories In / 2305 Calories Out (I ate back some of my exercise calories). 107 Net Carbs. 13,011 Total Steps & 5.51 Total Miles. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours and I slept 5 hours & 4 minutes. I walked the school halls for 75 minutes burning 437 calories. A lot of interruptions at the school yesterday so it was a little more stop & go than I liked. Less speed & burn. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Enjoy your day and your evenings with those who matter most!

02/15 …..194.8 ….. I had a surprise Valentine’s Day dinner out with DD#2 which came with a wonderful dessert. I did not expect it and I didn’t have the heart to say no. It was a set meal, no ordering so I enjoyed it but I did leave some food on my plate. At home I was given roses, cards, balloons and candy. Sheesh! It was a lovely day overall. School was closed at 1:00 but I managed to get in there before lock down and I walked for 120 minutes burning 674. It was at 3.0 which is a bit slower than I’d planned. However, an old friend walked with me and though I had to slow down a bit, it was nice to catch up. Over calorie and carb so my experiment was on hold for Valentine’s Day. I will try to be mindful and resume today.

02/16 …..195.0 ….. Epic Fail.

R104 – Theme: It’s A Marathon Not A Sprint!

Goals in 2020: gain lean muscle mass, gain strength, improve running times, focus on macros esp protein goals, hit goal weight.

56 year young, female, 5' 7"ft

OSW 160.0 lbs
RSW 147.6 lbs
RGW 145ish lbs (Anything with a 145 in it will be good)
UGW 137.0 lbs (I want to gain muscle/going by jeans fit/ so this is just a #)

Past Rounds:

R101 1/17/20 EW: 148.2
R102: 1/27/20 EW: 149.0
R103: 2/06/20 EW: 147.0

Day/Weight/Comment
2/7: 147.6 (+.6): Going to try to focus on macros and leaving calories in the bank. 😎

2/8: 147.0 (-.6): This will change. I ate well but had my weekend cocktails. My dang right hip is not improving and after running very slowly for 3 miles, limped the rest of the day. I’m sure it’s a temp injury but finally decided to deal with it – going to Airrosti on Monday. In the meantime, I will walk, do my strength circuit, cycle, row…..whatever to keep burning. Weekends are tough for me 😏

2/9: 147.2 (+.2) Walked 7 miles. Hello advil. 🙄

2/10: 146.4 (-.8) Think this is just eating under my cals. Had a very lazy day after my long walk – low energy. Hoping to work through hip issues and get back to my normal exercise regime. 😎

2/11: 146.6 (+.2) It’s going to be a non normal week as I work through my hip injury. Went to Airrosti – painful deep tissue work, but hope it will break up the tightness and get me back on the trail sooner. So I can’t run till this weekend. I will just compensate in the gym and try to eat a little less.🤐

2/12: 145.8 (-.8) Surprised I am down. Didn’t eat terrible yesterday but it wasn’t great – relied on protein drinks (plant based) to get my protein. I am not doing great at the macro tracking. Just trying to focus on calories and exercise. But the macros is where your food choices come home to roost. I need to get back into cooking. 🙄

2/13: 144.8 (-1.0) Hahaha….nice number but its just that. A number. I chalk it up to not planning well and not eating much after my first meal at noon because I had to leave for a cooking class at 4 pm, which lasted from 6-9 pm. I had planned to bring a protein drink and bar but forgot them. So I ate late when I got home, some chicken, olives. I was well under my daily calorie needs. But this is not a good thing as I am in the corner of, eat what you your body needs after a workout to build muscle. The class was fun – Truffles!!! Picture to follow….🥰

2/14: 145.0 (+.2) Here comes the creep….But that’s cool. Need to eat good food and keep moving, and I will get there. And I am working on strength so I expect to have ups and downs due to changes in body fat and lean muscle, ultimately. Tonight, DH is making me dinner so I will chillax and enjoy! Happy Valentines Day to all – Love your selves for caring about your health, physical and mental!🥰💋💟

2/15: 145.0 (0) This will change – big meal last night and out the next 2 nights. I will try to make good choices and bank breakfast and lunch. But damn….those truffles I made were so good!!!!❤❤❤

2/16: 145.8 (+.8) And hello food! Still happy to end with a 5 in the number. My workouts have been off due to the hip issue and we have been social. It all adds up but life goes on! Round 105 here I come🥳

02/14 - 157.7 - I would really like to be below my start weight at the end of the 10 days, but tomorrow's festivities are going to impact my Day 10 weigh-in. I will work out lots today to hopefully start tomorrow weighing less than today.
1,055 calories left over (lots of activity). 3711 burned above and beyond in 8 days, so at least a pound. I have found out that I don't lose weight at all if I don't achieve this sort of deficit.
02/15 - 156.3 - Tomorrow could be a different story since I have indulgence planned for later today. I will be sure to get lots of workouts in first.
02/16 - 158.2 - Definitely not my average over this 10 days, it is 157.7 including today. 10 rounds and barely budged : - ( Going to work very hard at this for the next 10!

Round 104, 21st Round for Me
Starting Weight: 276.8 lbs
Goal Weight: 274.8 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment

02/07: 278.1 lbs (+1.3) … expected an uptick here as I had lost about 5lb over the past couple days. Still not too bad.

02/08: 279.9 lbs (+1.8) … another expected uptick. Had a nice date night and was perfectly within budget, but then my wife and I decided we’d play drunken video games together so I wound up having another 5 beers late into the evening. Whatever this is is temporary and should fall off within the next couple days. Sometimes you just have to live a little

While I’ve set 274.8 as a goal for this round (I always choose my goal to be 2 lb less), I’ll be completely happy if I end around my round start weight… since last round ended with a dramatic drop in weight.

02/09: 278.9 lbs (-1.0) … down a bit. Planning on eating pretty light today, which should help me drop some more.

02/10: 279.6 lbs (+0.7) … hrm. Cooperate already, body. Despite eating really light yesterday and staying fairly active doing housework, I still wound up with a gain on the scale. Oh well. Still very happy about the inches I’ve dropped around my waist over the past week and a half.

02/11: 278.3 lbs (-1.3) … this is what I want to see. More of this. I was finally able to replace my defective VR headset (been out of commision since Thanksgiving!) and got back to one workout that I love -- Beat Saber. Played a couple hours last night.

02/12: 277.3 lbs (-1.0) … Three hours of VR last night no doubt made this drop possible. Played another 2 hours of Beat Saber and one of Superhot VR. Finally beat the latter. It was pretty challenging. Wound up with about 14,000 steps between walking and moving all over the living room while playing in VR.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHksBtpWnXo
(obviously not me in the video, but this is Beat Saber for those unfamiliar with it)

02/13: 278.2 lbs (+0.9) … Up a little. I had planned to get in some more VR activity last night, but I wound up feeling so tired that I went to bed early instead. I probably wouldn’t have eaten as much as I did if I had foreseen that. Oh well. Still got in a 2.5 mile walk yesterday afternoon and about a half hour of Beat Saber.

02/14: 278.7 lbs (+0.5) … 3 miles walking yesterday and about 2 hours of low intensity VR yesterday. I’m guessing this uptick is sodium-related, as I think yesterday was particularly sodium heavy. Happy Valentine’s Day, all.

02/15: 277.3 lbs (-1.4) … I didn’t eat super great yesterday, so this surprised me a little. I’m sure a good chunk of it was my blood donation yesterday -- which I’ve read typically weighs about a pound. I’m still happy about the extra .4 though!

02/16: 277.1 lbs (-0.2) … down a tiny bit. I didn’t quite make it back to my start weight for the round, but I’m still pretty happy. I ended R103 on a pretty massive dip in weight and held on to almost all of that over the next 10 days. Averaging out R103 and R104, I lost 2.1 lbs / week.

This was my first round in quite a while. I will be here for the next one. I'd like to get close to 140 before summer.

I need some accountability. These last 10 lbs are brutal. I'll be in DC for work for the week. I intend to make good food choices, but eating out the whole time will be rough. Goal for this round is just to be down a pound because of that.
UGW 150

02/08- 155
02/09- 156- I'm surprised it's not more. It's the weekend. I went out to lunch with friends and had a drink date last night. ugh. Sigh, and I have not been good today. Tomorrow is a new day. I will try to remember to drink more first.

02/14- 160 Yeah. I'm not surprised. I'm learning a lot. I was at a conference all week. They served us multi-course lunches and social hour hors devours every day. Sigh. I'm not good at limiting myself when excellent tasty food abounds. It is highly unlikely I will finish down at all this week. Seeing as it's my birthday today. We had doughnuts to celebrate at work and I'm eating out all weekend with family or friends. I will try harder...
02/15- 159 ugh. I got ditched by a date and consoled myself with cheesecake... and then an eclair. Yeah, I eat for comfort. sigh.
02/16- 159 Not a good way to end this round, but it is what it is. Gotta own my crappy choices. I intend to do better next round. Bring it on!!!!

Looking forward:

February: I need to focus on getting back to where I was pre-Christmas
2020: Goal is to stabilise weight around 145
Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
Cut down on eating between meals

Never give up! Never give in!
Back Story:

2018:
My goal was to get down below 160, to allow me to enjoy the indulgences of holidays and celebrations.
2019
I exceeded that and have been below 150 for most of the last 2 months.
In 2018, I put on 10 lbs over the last 2 months of the year.
In 2019, I consistently lost weight since the end of July. I put on about 4lbs over the Christmas break, but was still below my original 2019 goal.
That's a WIN in my book!

2020
I need this more than ever now that I am in maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.

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!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ ROUND 104
