Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 112

@CamandJarvis Yea, it was crazy! I had this "aha!" moment. Granted I didn't dig too deep into it but I have already noticed a difference today after not taking it last night. I was actually full after my first meal today with one of my most active mornings in a while. It really is interesting how each person can react so differently to the same thing.4

04/28 - 156.0
04/29 - 155.6
04/30 - 154.6 - finally below the EW from April 16 - due to getting some sleep.
05/01 - 153.8 - sleeping in is looking good for me. I don't want to get too excited, but very happy with this number.
05/02 - 153.6 - Weighed more before going back to bed, but I will use this number.
05/03 - 155.3
05/04 - 154.7 - Hoping to lose 0.4 more before the end of these 10 days.
05/05 - 153.2 - Another after going back to bed number.
05/06 - 154.1 - I was a pound less after going back to bed, but am switching over to when I first wake up.6 -
@fmfdfa2020 I'm glad to hear other people are being smart too! I work in healthcare (I'm blessed to be working from home right now though) and hear what's going on in the background with Covid. So when I see/hear about people not practicing social distancing or not wearing masks it makes me cringe, because I know it will just make it harder on everyone in the long run.3

@MomLarisa I use the last weight of the previous round because I realized if I happened to have a large drop from day 10 to day 1, I missed recording the loss in any round. That’s also why I started figuring my round Average Weight at the end of each round.4

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.

4/27 119.5 Very surprised because I made a rotisserie chicken yesterday and ate most of the super salty skin. YUM!
4/28 120.5 No problem still well below goal. Six weeks since the governor closed everything
4/29 120.5 Apparently I got caught up in life yesterday and didn’t read the board. Bad experience at Walmart grocery pick up. Girl refused to put on mask, young man (employee) said he was going to “kick your *kitten*” to my husband who was outraged by the girls attitude. Today we are supposed to have a record breaking high for April, 102 degrees!
4/30 119.5 Well, I ate very strangely yesterday. A lot more veggies than usual and an adequate amount of protein. But when I got on the scale this morning it said 109.0 - I haven’t been that light since I was 4’6” in 5th grade! - I knew that was wrong. I got on 3 times and finally got a reasonable weight. May be time for a new battery! TWC app says we hit 100 in our area yesterday but the official temp fell short of the record. Another chance today - it was 82 at 7:30 this morning but it’s cloudy now.
5/1 118.5 73 at 5:35AM Windows and door open
5/2 118.0 I just wasn’t hungry. We had a nice salad for dinner with ham, chicken, cheeses, and eggs. Our daughter and son-in-law #2 remarried yesterday evening. A friend set up a Zoom meeting so friends and family could watch.
5/3 118.0 I seem to have lost interest in food. Could be the lockdown, could be the heat.
5/4 118.0 Different Walmart and very pleasant pick up!
5/5 120.0 I know what caused the bump and it’s fine. I’m really not sure I want to be at 118 and I know at least part of the loss is muscle because I have been doing no exercise since March 17 except lifting the 15.5# cat. I’m also not sure I drank enough water.
5/6 119.5 Well I was posting a note @0803 when I got kicked out by Maintenance. Then when I tried to post a few minutes ago I deleted my entire 3 year journal. Totally deleted! Had to find yesterday’s post to get the current round. Fortunately, I send each round to myself by email so those are safe.
@MomLarisa I go by my day 10 round weight as my starting point because I would have significant losses from one day to the next. That’s also why I started tracking the round Average Weight.3 -
@GrandmaJackie Thank you!1

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27: 179.2 (Yay for a one pound drop on a Monday. Hoping for the weight to start falling off from TOM. I did a workout last night and made a salad for dinner.)
04/28: 177.4 (I’m happy to see this. I had a very tough workout that involved a lot of stationary squats. My body is a bit sore from that workout. I ate to plan and had a good day at work with minimal stress.)
04/29: 176.0 (I made some amazing strawberry cheesecake crepes for dinner last night and I was so nervous I would gain a bit, but I think I’m in some sort of whoosh moment. It fell within my calories but when you’re having something so good that’s “bad” it kinda makes me feel like the scale would go up. Not sure if they makes sense 😅)
04/30: 175.8 (A new low for me! Finally after 7 months! It was making me nervous to step on the scale to see what it was, but my next goal is to reach that 173!)
05/01: 175.2 (An even newer low! I had a relaxing night after my work day ended and my husband FINALLY got his unemployment debit card after filing on March 20th, so the stress from weeks of waiting finally lifted off my shoulders.)
05/02: 177.6
05/03: 180.0
05/04: 180.6 (I was wondering why I was gaining so much. I usually do during the weekend, but not this much. Just looked at my calendar and I’m ovulating tomorrow, so that makes sense. I hope everyone had an amazing weekend!)
05/05: 178.8 (Shocked to see this drop. My guess is that I was ovulating early again, so that’s why the weight is coming off. That would definitely make sense. I ate to plan and did a great workout at home.)
05/06: 177.6 (A good way to end the round! I had a good day yesterday trying to to give in to my cravings and I succeeded. I did a long workout and relaxed the rest of the night.)
Total loss this round: -2.6 pounds

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.

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 ✅2020
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!
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.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27 - 349.0 - Maintained, and even dropped, the previous loss. Now solidly under 350. I haven't been this low since 2011. And I got in a pretty good kettlebell/TRXRip workout this morning.
04/28 - 349.7 - A little uptick after going over on my calories. I'm happy it stayed under 350, though.
04/29 - 348.5 - And the rollercoaster goes down again. The gradual downward trend continues. I did get in a good walk this morning, but weights will have to wait until this evening.
04/30 - 348.6 - Virtually no change. My avocados were still too hard/not ripe, so I made a bagel sandwich. Tastes great, but really WAY too many carb calories. While I'll prolly never by keto, I do know I have to keep may average carb intake to 200 g./ day. I did remember that during my highest weight loss drops, I was drinking water w/ sea salt before my morning walks/workouts. So, I started back with that this morning. I didn't realize how much more energetic I felt when having that drink to start my day. I've also added an electrolyte tab to it.
05/01 - 349.1 - No exercising =s a little rise in weight. Sometimes you just want those lazy days, though.
05/02 off
05/03 off
05/04 - 348.1 - Gone for a couple, but back in it strong this morning. Got in a good walk and then a good workout (weights and bands), too.
05/05 - 346.8 - The last two days I've held off from drinking my coffee until I'm done my morning workout. Strange, but I've had significant weight drops both days. The CoffeeMate has only one gram of carbs and one of fat (no protein) and stevia, generally, has no effect on weight loss or autophagy. So, it appears that FINALLY working out (bands and weights) is increasing my weight loss rate. No matter... I met my goal for this round, so happiness abounds.
05/06 - 347.0 - Pretty steady after two decent drops. Good way to end this round.

F, 45, 5'7"
OSW: 240.9
GW: 190
Round GW: 238.3
Last weight 04/26 – 240.3. did 20 min. Jazzercise and Yoga.
04/27: 238.5 Jazzercise 20 min. Yoga 30 min. Homemade pizza for dinner—nervous about how to track it accurately.
04/28: 239.4 Jazzercise 20 min. Yoga 30 min. Late lunch at 2pm. Extremely stressful evening, probably didn’t eat as much as I normally would.
04/29: 238.4 Very bad insomnia last night. No workout. Work stress is extreme right now.
04/30: 237.2 Went to the office today for the first time in over a month. It felt good to get a change of scene and I’m feeling more positive about things. It’s scary to think about increased risk for getting sick with loosening restrictions. Mixed emotions. For some reason feeling encouraged today. Yoga 30 min. Jazzercise 20 min. Diet was not good quality. If anyone reads this and has any tips about how to become a morning exerciser before work let me know. I think it would really help me schedule wise, but I’ve never been able to drag myself out of bed early to do it.
05/01: 237.2 Really surprised this wasn’t a gain. Very bad insomnia last night. Maybe stress burns calories . No workout.
05/02: 237.2 28 min Jazzercise, 35 min. Yoga, 40 min. Walk
05/03: 237.2. Jazzercise 20 min., 35 min. Yoga. Stress continues to be high. 10 day streak of MFP tracking. Took progress photos today, which I have never really wanted to do before. They are definitely the “before” pictures, although I have been exercising consistently for 6 weeks, so maybe if I took them 6 weeks ago there would be some subtle difference. It has been really inspiring to see others' success story photos on here and I want to be able to post my own someday.
05/04: 237.2. Kinda weird scale has been exactly the same for 5 days. Definitely feel like my legs are getting stronger. When I started Yoga I really couldn’t do triangle pose, my body was so inflexible and out of whack. I feel like I am really able to do it now, so that is exciting! Feeling more positive and less terrified for some reason today. 20 min. Jazzercise and 35 min yoga. Went slightly over on calories but hungry when going to bed. Hard to get to sleep.
05/05: 235.7. Woke up hungry and thirsty. Still in the first two weeks here so if this is a real loss, not expecting to sustain this rate. Jazzercise 20 min yoga 30 min
05/06: 237.4. Jazzercise 20 min. Diet not good quality.
Round loss=2.9

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.
04/29 -- Weight 240.6, down 1.4; Goals - walk: yes, 60 minutes; log food: yes, 500 calories under once you add the exercise calories; empty calories: limited; meds: yes; water: yes, 9 cups and counting
04/30 -- Weight 239.8, down .8; Goals - walk: sort of, 30 minutes in a grocery store.... weather too crappy to walk outside; log food: yes, and if I estimated portions correctly on my chinese take out I stayed under target, but barely; empty calories: yes, moderate; meds: yes; water: yes, 8 cups so far. 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.
05/01 -- Happy May! Weight 240.2, plus .4; Goals - walk: yes, 80+ minutes with huge hills; log food: yes, under calories but ate half my exercise calories; empty calories: a few, not many; meds: yes; water: 10 plus.
05/02 -- Weight 238.6; Goals - walk: yes, 20 minutes; log food: yes, 300 calories under; empty calories: about 100; meds: yes; water: 9 +
05/03 -- Weight 239.0; Goals - walk: sort of, I cut grass for an hour and did 30 minutes of yard work so I'll count it; log food: yes, 300 under; empty calories: about 100; meds: yes; water: 11 and counting.
05/04 -- Weight 239.4. It is what it is, I am doing the right things so it is just a matter of waiting out my stubborn body! I am not concerned, it will happen in due course. Goals - walk: yes, 1 hour, it was a beautiful day! Log food: yep, 250 calories under; empty calories: 165, some of which was intentional to bring my blood sugar up twice today. A sure sign for me that I am eating better is low sugar, because my meds are calibrated for my crappy eating habits. I can adjust my meds to help avoid this as my eating and chemistry improve but when a low hits I need to add sugar. This is a good problem to have, as things go for me. Ah, the joy of diabetes! Meds: yes; water: yes, 10 and counting.
05/05 -- Weight 238.6; Goals - walk: yes, 65 minutes; log food: yes, 250 calories under; empty calories: about 100; meds: yes; water: yes, 12 and counting.
05/06 -- 238.6; Goals - walk: yes, 60 minutes; log food: yes, 400 calories under! empty calories: yes, 100 or so; meds: yes; water: yes, 9 so far. Thanks for a great round, all! Thanks, @GrandmaJackie!6 -

Starting Weight: 128.2
Round Goal Weight: 125
Goal Weight: 116
04/27 - 127.4
04/28 - Did not weigh myself since I stayed up all night and day.
04/29 - 126.3 Obviously the extra 100-200 cal over my cal goal on the 27th and then no sleep on the 28th didn't negatively affect my weightloss. I'm very happy about that. As long as I keep up a little bit of activity throughout the day, I should be able to include my nightly craving for extra sharp cheddar lol
04/30 - 126.3 I'm not too worried about the scale not moving. I ate popcorn last night and I use a grotesque amount of salt in mine lol As long as I drink lots of water today and continue as normal I'm sure the scale will drop tomorrow.
05/01 - 126.3 again. Yesterday I went waaay over my limit. I ate taco bell, Hawaiian pizza, but it mostly had to do with the entire bottle of wine I drank. Just happy I maintained instead of gained.
05/02 - 129.2 YIKES I ate almost 900 over my goal and went on a 2-mile run followed by a mile walk to cooldown. I'm hoping it'll go down and is mostly water along with food weight. Guess we'll see tomorrow.
05/03 - 128...maybe? I stepped on the scale and it was 129.2 Did it a couple of times, still 129.2. Then I tried it again and it went to 128, now it won't change from 128. Yesterday I met my calories goal, drank water, used the restroom, and I'm feeling mega bummed. I'm thinking I won't make my goal of 125 and that feels awful. I really sabotaged myself the last couple of days.
05/04 - 126.4 Yesterday I went for another 2-mile run and almost mile cooldown walk. I also stayed within my calorie goal and drank a couple of big glasses of water. I am thinking of making running a more regular thing even though while I'm doing it I can't stand it lol afterwards I feel amazing though. Still unlikely that I will make it to my goal of 125 but that was all due to me overeating. That's a factor only I can change.
05/05 - 127.5 Not too suprised about this. I ate about 1900 yesterday which is quite a bit over my TDEE. I ran 2 miles, walked one, and did shoulders, abs, and some HIIT. Between food weight and water weight I wasn't expecting a loss.
05/06 - 129.4 Well I really mucked up these last few days. But I didn't stop working out so it wasn't all a wash. The rest of this month will be dedicated to continuing my new exercise routine and finding better ways to cope other than stress eating.

News is she tested negative for the virus. Their plan is to separate after testing. hope this works! 🙏 Back to goal -.4. Need to focus on exercising. Hope that will help me in more then one way.9 -

Day/Weight/Comment
04/27: 140 (+.4) Lol. Burned 850 calories doing a 3 hour bike ride and I gain weight? Maybe just working through the 3 liters of water and electrolytes I drank. Had pasta for dinner and some margaritas but don’t think it was over calories. The body is truly just a chemical reaction.
04/28 (138.8 (-.2) Got a nice walk in yesterday. – rest day from the bike. Added some core and strength.
04/29 (138.6) (-.2) Ate ok yesterday and did a nice ride.
04/30 (138.6) (0) Never believe it when it doesn’t change. Scale is lazy on some days. Aren’t we all. Had a great salad for dinner. Heading out for a walk in this gorgeous weather.
05/01 (139.2) (+.6) Did a ride and some core work. Food was ok.
05/02 (138.6) (-.6) Walked and rode today. Going to attempt to make pizza today…..
05/03 (138.8) (+.2) Ate late and it was pizza. I did a long ride today so I needed to carbo load.
05/04 DNW
05/05 DNW
05/06 (139.0) Up and down….but feeling stronger. Maybe its muscle. Or Maybe it’s the sourdough.
