Day, Weight, Comment
04/07 - 148.6
04/08 - 148.8 - Not even sure why... possibly from a carb-heavy breakfast (homemade biscuits&gravy)? Oh yeah, possibly lunch. Only had a handful, but pizza rolls = no bueno. Also got more water so maybe that? I don't know. Today will be better, I hope. Work says severe thunderstorms today. Everything else I see says tomorrow and Saturday for storms and rain Friday. Its muggy so definitely something moving in. Will need to get outside for fresh air and sunshine before all that! Might venture out to the store (mama made and sent me face masks! Yay for quilters in the family) to stock up on some food and grab salad for me while I'm at it. My Imperfect Produce order is set to arrive today (figured I'd try it -- BF's idea despite him hating most veggies) but will need some leafy greens and protein for salads (mainly lunch as breakfast and dinner BF and I eat together)

Previous Day's Comments

04/07 - On an uptick today. Had homemade street tacos with the usual fam last night (we help watch their kids [I'm an aunt!! Only child over here, so I am soaking that in] and the hubby is BF's boss so they sometimes have to work together) so hanging out for dinner really isn't violating social distancing any more than any other time of the day we may be assisting. Might as well combine forces and not waste food since we are already there (and total there are 4 adults and 2 children so still less than the 10 person gathering limit). Unfortunately, the food is AMAZING and very easy to overeat. Also desperately need to up my water intake. I've been slacking off horribly. Depending on how today goes, I should have yoga via zoom and I'm about to do some hip thrusts before BF wakes up since my back has been hurting a bit lately (surgeon's orders - keep glutes and hips strong and aligned to reduce pinching of my nerve and so far, it seems to help). Hoping today will be better activity-wise. No rain and temps back in 80s so maybe I can get outside for fresh air and a walk or something.

Exactly so, @jamfullhouse. Many people still have their eyes shut to what is going on. For 5 years, I have been telling my family many of the things that are happening right now. Some people still think life will resume as it was. It will not.

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.

4/8 121.5 Way over on everything yesterday. Our wonderful SIL had to go in to work yesterday so went to Sam’s and Walmart and got EVERYTHING on my list except a supplement I have been taking for well over a decade. Fresh produce will be a challenge in the coming weeks but otherwise we’re good.

Everyone stay healthy!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/06 …..202.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/07 …..203.6 ….. I am hoping its water retention, but probably not. I enjoyed a movie night last night with my son which included snacks that didn’t belong. Not an over-abundance, but definitely outside of plan. I still had in over 5 miles total steps/walking for the course of the day, some small cabin cleaning and housework in my home and I made a pot of soup. Today I will work on taxes (again), and hopefully do some more prep cooking for my freezer. I hope to keep the carbs at a reasonable amount to help my glucose numbers continue to improveI don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be overheated or be a sweathog when summer finally hits, so I’ve got to stay focused! . Good luck everyone this round. Congratulations to all the great results I saw last round from so many!

04/08 …..203.5 ….. I did a dance session yesterday for 23 minutes. Sample song, “In my feelings (Kiki, do you love me?) by Drake. Yesterday was a successful day overall on my journey. Today (I am hopeful) will be even better.

Not been around for a while (since last year in fact!)
Thank you @GrandmaJackie for keeping this going - this group is fab and lovely to see so many familiar people on here and a whole new intake too!

Live in the UK - aged 48 (for a bit longer)

Been so busy with house renovations, then December, a trip to Disney and Christmas and a lot of socialising involving way too much food and drink and just not got my head back in it since then. Can feel my clothes getting tighter and the arrival of the nice weather made me realise my shorts from last summer don't fit great either! Want to get back to last summers goal weight.....

And now of course we're stuck at home

But I am working from home as normal (in fact more hours than ever - CFO for an IT Support company supporting a lot of large London schools and pharma companies), hubby is working away at the minute (a Key worker working for GE dealing with power station generators so have to keep the power on!) so here with my daughters (aged 12 and 17) on my own trying to also find time to help them with their school and college work and also look after and help my parents who are in self isolation due to underlying health conditions (COPD and a history of strokes and pleurisy) so time for me is hard to find at the minute. Also worry about my daughter-in-law who is a nurse at Guys and St Thomas' in London and ventilator trained so in the thick of it....

So I decided enough is enough and that I need to find a bit of time for me, get re-focused and this group is a fab way to ensure I do!! No evening commitments at the minute

so have time to focus on healthy evening meals.

Weighed yesterday and am back on it. Counting this as round 1 for me and not carrying from my old history.

Goal for the round is to stay focused, get back to daily weighing, do my PT workouts at least 3 times this week as well as a walk outside when I can.

Round goal - to lose around 5lb so down to about 150 (sounds a lot but first round back on it so hoping to see quite a bit of bloat and water going!) .....

04/06 - 155.0lb Oh well not great but I'm back and on it again.
04/07 - 153.8lb (-1.2lb) One day of focus and progress already Did the daily workout my PT is posting up each day on the Facebook group and ache this morning (haven't been able to go the gym for three weeks now!) Then also did a 4 mile round trip walk to my parents to drop off a few bits for them. So a good start. On to tomorrow....

04/08 - 153.6lb (-0.2lb) All in the right direction and completed my PT's workout again (lower body - and I'm feeling it this morning!)

04/07 - 354.1 - Looks like I might've broken thru that plateau I've been stuck on. Drank lots more water yesterday and it seems to have helped. No matter, onward and downward! Everyone stay safe!
04/08 - 354.5 - minor uptick. My losses have definitely slowed. But sticking to the program WILL get me there. But I now understand why so many get so discouraged when this happens. You put in the work, but don't get the results... temporarily. Everyone stay safe!!

Round 110 - April 7 to 16
Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 165.8 GW – 164, UGW – 140.
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, complete my tracking every day and get some kind of outdoor exercise unless it is raining. Did not do well on the exercise the last couple of rounds and it shows – a steady creep up. Reminded by Tish’s video on breathing how important drinking water is. So this round I’m planning to work much harder on the exercise and drinking water.
Can’t control much else but this is a battle I can win – as someone wrote.

I' m in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!

70 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...

...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

We used to walk 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year. Then I had back surgery. Then I had hip surgery March 10th. Recovery is slow. Sure do want to be back walking!

The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

I got a lot of comments saying how good I look and people asked me how I lost all the weight so far. It feels good to get that recognition!)

04/08: 177.4 (Yes, please go down! I’m happy to see this number. The hope is that by Friday I’ll have a brand new low. I had food to plan and did another hour long workout!)

Looking forward:
I'm just too danged cussed to let this thing knock me back, and ruin all the effort I have put in to get here. I am stepping up my routine, and taking control. Sheltering in place means I can fully concentrate on getting in my exercise, and preparing healthy food.

April: focus on maintaining and increasing my progress
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 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ So far, so good.
That's a WIN in my book!

2020
Focus: 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!

I ended Round109 at 173.2lbs vs having reached 166.6lbs before I went offline for a bit. Having made made no serious effort to reach my goals, I achieved the results I worked for.
This is try again time. My goals remain the same.
- get down to165lbs or less and
- complete 1 full hr of exercise each day

04/07. 173.4lbs

04/08. No weigh in today

I'm still bloated with edema because I've been exclusively consuming easy ready eat high carb & high calorie foods.
This is why normally I do not keep these items in the house. Thankfully I am forced to eat better because all I have left is nutritious foods that I must cook.

I'm a total scatter brain right now for all the obvious reasons.
Every few hours I have to talk myself down. Intellectually I know poor decisions in my own life, even if it's just my mini goals, can only hurt me. If ever I've needed to value my health and we'll being it is right now.

This is not the time to slack off. I need to face this new reality with strength. Suck it up. Do what's needed. Be grateful I have the option to pout and snap out of it.

04/07 192.0 well going to maintenance calories has not “shocked” my body into losing, either. I’m going to be as super diligent with my tracking as possible and lower my target again. Someday I’ll get off this plateau.

04/08 191.8 so the plateau continues. 😠 Again green on calories, even at lower amount.

Not been around for a while (since last year in fact!)
Thank you @GrandmaJackie for keeping this going - this group is fab and lovely to see so many familiar people on here and a whole new intake too!

Live in the UK - aged 48 (for a bit longer)

Been so busy with house renovations, then December, a trip to Disney and Christmas and a lot of socialising involving way too much food and drink and just not got my head back in it since then. Can feel my clothes getting tighter and the arrival of the nice weather made me realise my shorts from last summer don't fit great either! Want to get back to last summers goal weight.....

And now of course we're stuck at home

But I am working from home as normal (in fact more hours than ever - CFO for an IT Support company supporting a lot of large London schools and pharma companies), hubby is working away at the minute (a Key worker working for GE dealing with power station generators so have to keep the power on!) so here with my daughters (aged 12 and 17) on my own trying to also find time to help them with their school and college work and also look after and help my parents who are in self isolation due to underlying health conditions (COPD and a history of strokes and pleurisy) so time for me is hard to find at the minute. Also worry about my daughter-in-law who is a nurse at Guys and St Thomas' in London and ventilator trained so in the thick of it....

So I decided enough is enough and that I need to find a bit of time for me, get re-focused and this group is a fab way to ensure I do!! No evening commitments at the minute

so have time to focus on healthy evening meals.

Weighed yesterday and am back on it. Counting this as round 1 for me and not carrying from my old history.

Goal for the round is to stay focused, get back to daily weighing, do my PT workouts at least 3 times this week as well as a walk outside when I can.

Round goal - to lose around 5lb so down to about 150 (sounds a lot but first round back on it so hoping to see quite a bit of bloat and water going!) .....

04/06 - 155.0lb Oh well not great but I'm back and on it again.
04/07 - 153.8lb (-1.2lb) One day of focus and progress already Did the daily workout my PT is posting up each day on the Facebook group and ache this morning (haven't been able to go the gym for three weeks now!) Then also did a 4 mile round trip walk to my parents to drop off a few bits for them. So a good start. On to tomorrow....
04/08 - 153.6lb (-0.2lb) All in the right direction and completed my PT's workout again (lower body - and I'm feeling it this morning!)

04/09 - 153.1lb (-0.5lb) A HiiT session from my trainer today which finished me off! Also got out for a quick coupe of mile walk. Tracking my food OK but probably not drinking enough water so that's my focus for the next few days.

I need some accountability. These last 10 lbs are brutal.
UGW 150 and a BMI of 20
Round 103- SW 160, EW 157 -3
Round 107- SW 154.8, EW 155.2 +.4
Round 108- SW 154.8 EW 153.6 -1.2
Round 109- SW 154 EW 155.6 +1.6

4/7- 155.8 I don't think the 8 mile bike ride and frisbee golf with the kids was enough to cancel out the Dairy Queen we got afterward, but it was wonderful and we had a great time.
4/8- 154.4 I didn't eat back my exercise calories yesterday. It shows, but I'm also hungry. How do you get comfortable with the constant hunger?
4/9- 153.6 sweet. Hiked with the kids and then ran another 2 miles too. Hoping this is me pushing through this plateau I've been on a while.
