Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 112

mrs_sutsie · May 2020

Thank you @GrandmaJackie

I live in the UK - aged 48 - with hubby and two daughters age 12 and 17 - other 4 (step) kids all grown up and left home and we also have 6 grandkids (aged between 1 and 7). Came back to this in round 110

R110 - Start weight 155.0lb End weight 152.3lb Round Loss 2.7lb
R111 - Start weight 152.3lb End Weight 146.8lb Round loss 5.5lb

Round goal - keep tracking, keep losing and get out for my 10k steps walk in the evenings (working from home at the minute so desk bound most of the day) and keep active at the weekends with doing stuff round the house. Had a big loss last round - so hoping to stabilise a bit this round and finish in the 145's so a loss of around 1.5lb would be good

04/27 - 148.4lb (+1.6lb) Yesterday's weight was a very unexpected loss showing a loss on 1.8lb which came out of nowhere. I also had a full on day yesterday with a lot of heavy gardening, a "Bring Your Parent to Cheer" hour long Zoom training session and a Sunday roast with homemade by my daughters apple crumble (albeit it all within calories but still more food than I would normally eat in the evening!
Today's weigh in still means I've lost over the weekend so still happy

And wow was the cheer session tough! I was ok with the warm-up part as regularly have PT Sessions at the gym, but the stunting part was tough!!! As for tumble - I couldn't do a cartwheel at 15 so no chance at 50!!! Although did manage the forward rolls and a sort of handstand! :

And we were only doing level 1 stuff! My kids are level 4 and level 6 - those girls are strong!!!

04/28 - 146.9lb (-1.5lb) Back down again so maybe Sunday wasn't a fluke and I can blame yesterday on our lovely Sunday roast! Hubby likely to be home late tonight or tomorrow having been away for 5 weeks so we are likely to have date night when he gets home (with an M&S Dine in for two meal) but he's fed up with the food he's managed to get while away (no restaurants open obviously, so been living on take out deliveries and a very limited room service menu) and desperate for healthy colourful food and veggies so not a problem when he gets home to stick with what I'm doing.
Onwards and downwards towards 145

04/29 - 146.1lb (-0.8lb) Another day another drop - please let me find away to bottle up this motivation

I am very excited today

- Hubby will be home later today after 5 weeks working away so its date night tonight (an M&S Dine in for Two for those in the UK!) - so I will be having cheese and biscuits for dessert and we will have a bottle of wine and I will enjoy every mouthful The rest of my day will be spot on though.
I know the scale will be up tomorrow morning as a result but I'll know why, I'll take it and I will be back on track first thing tomorrow.
Have a great Wednesday everyone - I know I will!

04/30 - 148.7lb (+2.6lb) 2.6lb of cheese to be honest

no hugs needed! A lovely evening catching up with hubby - very chilled and worth every part of the 2.6lb

But I'm strictly back to it today so should see this disappear again in the next day or two

???????????????????????????????HOW IS IT MAY ALREADY ???????????????????????????????????????

05/01 - 147.9lb (-0.8lb) 0.8lb of my Wednesday evening cheese fest gone

All back on track yesterday and all within calories with no problem and didn't feel the need to stay off plan - happy to get back to it after an evening off so that is definitely a win! So hoping to be back to the 146's very soon and get to my round target of the 145's

05/02 - 146.4lb (-1.5lb) and basically back to where I was as expected after a couple of days. Raclette grill is coming out for dinner tonight - love this way of cooking and eating as a family as very sociable, never rushed and with hubby home its a lovely way to all catch up. Just intend to be good and not overdo the cheese

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!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27 DNW today. I live with my in-laws and the scale vanished from the bathroom because I think my sister in law used it to weigh her cat. So I took that as a sign from the universe to just wait until tomorrow morning. I didn’t sleep so great and woke up at 4AM wide awake, so I’m hoping that doesn’t affect my appetite too much today. I’m hoping to be down from 125.2 tomorrow morning. It was a weekend filled with birthday dinners for my husband but I did manage to stay relatively close to calorie goals. Last night I probably went over by about 150 or so, which isn’t a killer. I also focused on drinking more water yesterday but lacked enough fiber. So drinking a good amount of water and getting enough fiber today is my goal today!

04/28 124.4 Down back into the 124 range. Dipped last round to 124 and bounced back up to 125.6 then down to 125.2 I think it was, which I concluded was due to water weight. I was excited today to see I’m back in the 124 range. I also had a NSV today by upping my daily pushups from 3 sets of 20 reps to 3 sets of 25 push ups. I’ve been doing pushups every day for a week and a half or more and feel like I have already seen a difference in muscle definition 😊. I had remembered reading in the past that your arms are one of the muscle groups you can see a change in relatively quickly. So that was nice to notice yesterday and today 😊.

04/29 124.4 Stayed the same and I’m good with that. It’s been a great day so far, our morning walk was almost 4 miles around our neighborhood. The sun was shining, and it finally felt a little bit like spring again after the rains we had on Sunday and Monday. I even spotted some violets on my walk. Yesterday was a good day food wise and I have today’s menu mapped out and I’ll be pretty close to my calories with two glasses of wine included. (The wine is to celebrate my husband finishing up his semester of grad school. 😊)

04/30 124.4 Stayed the same. Yesterday was a good day and I didn’t even end up drinking last night so I woke up feeling pretty good today. I find my body is sensitive to alcohol and even a glass or two will affect my sleep and the way I feel the next day. I guess it’s a blessing in a way because it makes me want to drink less. This morning I decided to give my muscles a rest and didn’t do my daily push-ups and air squats. I did get in a 3 mile walk this morning before the rain started, so I feel like I’m off to a good start for the day. I’m also looking forward to this weekend. It’s supposed to be 70 on Sunday! Yippee!!

05/01 124.0 Yay! Back to 124 😊. I ate well yesterday and about ¾ of the way through my dinner I decided I wasn’t satisfied so I wrapped it up and decided that I would eat something else to satisfy me. I ended up finishing my dinner with weighed out dried mango and apricots. My dinner was yummy though, it was kale gnocchi from Trader Joe’s mixed with a touch of their canned tomato sauce and 1 cup of their red pepper and tomato soup. I think I’m having a hard time with the 1200 calories and like when I exercise because I eat a little more and feel more satisfied. When I have to stick with 1200 calories, I feel like my meals are pretty small. We haven’t been going out to get food and only getting it delivered from Imperfect Foods, so I haven’t been able to get all of the produce I would like to volume wise. The produce is great from them but my family has been extremely careful with everything coming into the house. So having a ton of produce delivered is a bit of a chore because we are washing everything all at once and it takes like an hour to get it all done. I guess you could say I’m being lazy… because I am. I can’t wait for the days to be normal again and I can go to the store and buy whatever produce I want and not feel as though everything is contaminated. Sorry if that was a little ranty.

05/02 124.0 Yay, still at 124! (I'm not trying to be sarcastic). Yesterday was good food wise, I’m really enjoying weighing my food to know how much I’m putting in my body. For my breakfast yesterday I made myself a chocolate protein mug cake that was divine. It helped my chocolate craving and didn’t get dry or have a weird texture. So that was a solid win. Today was a beautiful day and a good one food wise as well. I intermittent fasted until 11ish today ad started my day with a pineapple beet smoothie and two slices of sprouted cinnamon raisin toast and a smidgen of butter. Then we had baked chicken parm with brown rice and quinoa pasta.

04/27 - 144
04/28 - 144
04/29 - 145.5 - I've been weighing but not posting. I'm going to try to get my act together this round.
04/30 - 145.5 - At least it's not going up. I need to start drinking more water.
05/01 - 146.5 - I think this is the scale catching up with my comfort eating the past month. I had to quarantine myself a few weeks ago due to an exposure at my office. My husband started quarantining himself on Monday due to an exposure at his office. This will probably be the new normal for us so I'm going to have to get the eating under control. My husband's part of the house includes all the exercise equipment, so I'm going to have to start walking around the house to burn some calories.
05/02 - 145.5 - I did some cleaning and yard work today. My eating wasn't great, but it felt good to get outside and get some exercise.

Goal for 112: I'm not setting a number here. My goal is a new mindset right now.

Day/Weight/Comment
Quarantine has not been kind; I've been out of control. But honestly, I lost control about a year ago, just not to the degree that quarantine has driven it. Trying this again to get back in the groove. No.More.Excuses!

04/30–176--Baby steps beginning today, right? Back to work on what I know is good for me.
05/01–174—I figured yesterday’s uptick was salt and expected a drop, but am SO thankful for it. I did hit my water goal yesterday, which I haven’t been doing consistently for months. Yesterday doesn’t make it consistent, but it’s a start back in the right direction. Did well with food choices too. I’m slightly encouraged by the feeling that, for one day at least, I was able to be back in control of what I put in my freaking mouth!
05/02–173.4—Got in all my water yesterday, did well with food, and also got in two miles of walking after dinner. Steps: 11,206. Yesterday felt good, and a comment that @quiltingjaine made was dead on—One Day at a Time. I think it’s clear that I’m a food addict and have been my whole life, really. I’ve had a relapse over the last 8-10 months, but it’s time to give up those bad habits again and make new ones like I had done before. I did it once. I can do it again.

@UTMom81- Yes you can do it again!! I am a foodie also and a former binge eater. Good job on not regaining all of your weight back. That means you are doing something right. I agree the quarantine is not kind at all. But we can overcome it. It is just going to be harder than it already is. You got this!!

Thank you so much, Molly! The support feels really good. I appreciate this group!

Starting weight is 242 as of 4/25. Goals for this ten day challenge: Walk at least 20 minutes every day, log food, avoid sugar and alcohol and the usual empty calories, take my meds every day on schedule, and drink my water. With those goals, my target weight for this cycle is 237.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27 -- Forgot to weigh in. Not a great start! Goals: walk: yes, 1 hour; log food: yes, ate my exercise calories though; empty calories: some, but progress; meds: yes; water: yes 10 cups and counting.

04/28 -- Weight 242.0, no change. I'm not worried, with correct behavior the weight will come off in time. Goals - walk: yes, 80 minutes log food: yes, under calories; empty calories: limited; meds: yes; water: yes, 10 cups.

Today was a bit of a splurge, will get things back in complete order tomorrow. Will probably pay a price for the Chinese food, though.

@maryhope1987 Patience, building muscle can result in water retention which WILL eventually go away. A pound is a pound but fat takes up more space than muscle. Take measurements.

@quiltingjaine thank you! I am glad I sticked to it, I see changes now! Thank for the motivation.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 112 (round 44 for me ) I'm in for another round – just keep going! As always; thank you GrandmaJackie, such a champion particularly in these challenging times, helping to keep some stability in our lives, for setting up these challenges.

Female age 62 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !

Goal – end lower than started......again! - aim to stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, really want to keep this 10 days binge free! Keep calm, wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.

Day/Weight/Comment

04/27 134.2 - 8.84 miles walked. 307 calories in credit, carbs 6 in red.
04/28 133.6 – 9.29 miles walked yesterday, 458 calories in credit, but carbs 5g over, will try to get that under control today. Getting outside for a walk today will be a challenge as rain forecast all day.
04/29 133.2 – no rainless windows to walk yesterday

, still I managed to keep within my calorie allowance despite not having any additional exercise

; 147 calories in credit, just 1 g over on carbs.
04/30 133.2 – 10.89 miles walked yesterday – made up for the day before!! 571 calories in credit, all macros in green.
05/01 132.4 – YAY !! a new lowest number this year, so chuffed! Will it stay down? 10.16 miles walked yesterday, calories 664 in credit other macros well in green.
05/02 132.4 – wow, stayed at the new number! Wanted late night snack last night, really wanted to hit the chocolate, but thought of that number encouraged me to just have a pear

. Walked 10.4 miles yesterday, 379 calories in credit, all other macros in green.
05/03 134 – whoops! Normal fluctuation? 9.63 walked yesterday with DH to local animal petting farm – it was closed as we expected due to lock down, but the paths and woods round about were not. We had a lovely time wandering around enjoying the bluebells and the wildlife, almost seemed like normality to be out in the countryside again!! It was good to rediscover such an oasis within walking distance of home, I think we might do that walk in reverse today it was so up lifting. Friday, Saturday & Sunday are always more of an eating challenge; Saturday is pizza night, but still in calories, also indulged in cream & jam scone and a glass of cider in the sun in the garden after the walk. 90 calories in credit, but carbs 40 over – ouch!!
P.S. tried for ages to upload a photo of the bluebells here, but I failed at that challenge

04/27: 258
04/28: 256–Just starting back up so 2 pounds of water weight I’m sure.
04/29: 253–Still mostly water weight. Hoping I can stay motivated now since I probably won’t lose anymore for several days.
04/30: 253.6–I expected this. No surprise here. This is where I usually lose my motivation though, so hoping that doesn’t happen this time.
05/01: 254.6–I was under my calorie goal yesterday but ate way too much sodium. Lots of water today and hopefully this “gain” will be gone tomorrow.
05/02: 252.8–Water weight is gone and I even had Dairy Queen for dinner last night! And instead of just throwing caution to the wind when I got there to order which is what I would usually do, I picked something that fit into what calories I had left. I can honestly say I’ve never even considered ordering a mini size blizzard before yesterday lol. Baby steps!

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27 DNW today. I live with my in-laws and the scale vanished from the bathroom because I think my sister in law used it to weigh her cat. So I took that as a sign from the universe to just wait until tomorrow morning. I didn’t sleep so great and woke up at 4AM wide awake, so I’m hoping that doesn’t affect my appetite too much today. I’m hoping to be down from 125.2 tomorrow morning. It was a weekend filled with birthday dinners for my husband but I did manage to stay relatively close to calorie goals. Last night I probably went over by about 150 or so, which isn’t a killer. I also focused on drinking more water yesterday but lacked enough fiber. So drinking a good amount of water and getting enough fiber today is my goal today!

04/28 124.4 Down back into the 124 range. Dipped last round to 124 and bounced back up to 125.6 then down to 125.2 I think it was, which I concluded was due to water weight. I was excited today to see I’m back in the 124 range. I also had a NSV today by upping my daily pushups from 3 sets of 20 reps to 3 sets of 25 push ups. I’ve been doing pushups every day for a week and a half or more and feel like I have already seen a difference in muscle definition 😊. I had remembered reading in the past that your arms are one of the muscle groups you can see a change in relatively quickly. So that was nice to notice yesterday and today 😊.

04/29 124.4 Stayed the same and I’m good with that. It’s been a great day so far, our morning walk was almost 4 miles around our neighborhood. The sun was shining, and it finally felt a little bit like spring again after the rains we had on Sunday and Monday. I even spotted some violets on my walk. Yesterday was a good day food wise and I have today’s menu mapped out and I’ll be pretty close to my calories with two glasses of wine included. (The wine is to celebrate my husband finishing up his semester of grad school. 😊)

04/30 124.4 Stayed the same. Yesterday was a good day and I didn’t even end up drinking last night so I woke up feeling pretty good today. I find my body is sensitive to alcohol and even a glass or two will affect my sleep and the way I feel the next day. I guess it’s a blessing in a way because it makes me want to drink less. This morning I decided to give my muscles a rest and didn’t do my daily push-ups and air squats. I did get in a 3 mile walk this morning before the rain started, so I feel like I’m off to a good start for the day. I’m also looking forward to this weekend. It’s supposed to be 70 on Sunday! Yippee!!

05/01 124.0 Yay! Back to 124 😊. I ate well yesterday and about ¾ of the way through my dinner I decided I wasn’t satisfied so I wrapped it up and decided that I would eat something else to satisfy me. I ended up finishing my dinner with weighed out dried mango and apricots. My dinner was yummy though, it was kale gnocchi from Trader Joe’s mixed with a touch of their canned tomato sauce and 1 cup of their red pepper and tomato soup. I think I’m having a hard time with the 1200 calories and like when I exercise because I eat a little more and feel more satisfied. When I have to stick with 1200 calories, I feel like my meals are pretty small. We haven’t been going out to get food and only getting it delivered from Imperfect Foods, so I haven’t been able to get all of the produce I would like to volume wise. The produce is great from them but my family has been extremely careful with everything coming into the house. So having a ton of produce delivered is a bit of a chore because we are washing everything all at once and it takes like an hour to get it all done. I guess you could say I’m being lazy… because I am. I can’t wait for the days to be normal again and I can go to the store and buy whatever produce I want and not feel as though everything is contaminated. Sorry if that was a little ranty.

05/02 124.0 Yay, still at 124! (I'm not trying to be sarcastic). Yesterday was good food wise, I’m really enjoying weighing my food to know how much I’m putting in my body. For my breakfast yesterday I made myself a chocolate protein mug cake that was divine. It helped my chocolate craving and didn’t get dry or have a weird texture. So that was a solid win. Today was a beautiful day and a good one food wise as well. I intermittent fasted until 11ish today ad started my day with a pineapple beet smoothie and two slices of sprouted cinnamon raisin toast and a smidgen of butter. Then we had baked chicken parm with brown rice and quinoa pasta.

05/03 122.8 I’m so excited! I beat my round goal and I’m so happy! I feel so good despite getting stung five times yesterday while tending our honey bees. I love the way my body feels right now and I don’t have that fluffy feeling in and around my belly/hips area. This was a nice number to wake up to. The last time I was in the 122’s was when I had the flu in February and wasn’t eating for like a week... so naturally that weight came back when I started to feel better and eat. Now I’m eating well and got to that number in a healthy way.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!
