hammycakes · May 2020

HW: 196
GW: 182 for now
CW: 192
goals for this round:
C25K 3x per week
1200-1400 cals on non running days
1400-1600 cals on running days
I just wanna see something below 190 this round!

05/27 191.8 approximate total cals 1163

I was waiting for this round to start and then missed the beginning. but here I am. I feel pretty committed at the moment so lets hope we can keep it up.
05/28 191.8 ran 3 miles, approximate total cals 1600

05/29 191.2 approximate total cals 1441

05/30 191.4 ran 3 miles, approximate total cals 1698

It was raining but we waited 30 minutes and it cleared up. So humid, but we got it done. I was feeling really snacky last night but 100 cals over isn't that bad I guess.

@CamandJarvis -I hope things get better. It sucks to be let down by those you love, trust and devote you life to. Hopefully they will realize how you must feel. The people in our group here, are right when they say this is a good place to vent because it is such a great and supportive group! Hugs to you. Take good and spoiling care of yourself.💚

Day/Weight/Comment
05/26 …..205.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

05/27 …..205.0 ….. No change. Today is going well (so far). Good luck everyone this round! I look forward to the (much needed) inspiration!

05/28 …..204.8 ….. Thankfully down a little. I went for the bloodwork on Tuesday and today I go back to see my doctor. Boy, am I ever scared! No, it has nothing to do with corona, temperature checks or masks. It has to do with my weight gain! I haven’t seen her since early fall and I am much fatter now. I am in big trouble!!!! Stay tuned….

05/29 …..204.7 …..

05/30 …..208.0 ….. Can you tell I had an unexpected trip out of town for business/building supplies? I didn't even get to post my weight yesterday. Posting today for both days. I arrived home last night. Way too many of both carbs and calories from the restaurant and travels which is clearly reflected on the scale. I am hoping some of this is water weight. We shall see. My Dr. Appointment on Thursday went as expected. Glucose too high, too much weight gain since fall and I have to take extra diabetic meds until weight goes back down. Stress eating has got to stop. I must get as many projects done as possible in June so I can get back out there walking and hiking for longer periods of time! I also miss walking at the school since it closed during the winter. More travel on Monday to go out of town for my 6 month comparison CT scan on my lungs (hopefully no breast cancer metastasized) and for more building supplies. I am going to try to make a positive impact on my weight all weekend.

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.

May: 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'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.

Heaviest: 192.2

05/26 - 150.0 at 6:00 a.m. ...6:00 a.m.!! EGADS!!! We walked at 7:00 a.m. because northern California hit 103 degrees today. No walking at 7:00 p.m. for us...way too hot. We did 4+ miles in 85 mins this morning.

Day/Weight/Comment

05/27 - 146 - I was hoping I'd be down a little more, but it appears that it wasn't all water weight I gained over my 4 day weekend.
05/28 - 147 - My rings were very tight this morning so I'm going to be drinking plenty of water today.
05/29 - 145 - I think the scales were just being kind this morning. I'll take it, but I won't be surprised if I'm up a little bit tomorrow.
05/30 - 145 - I've eaten around maintenance the past couple days and mowed the lawn today, so I hope I can maintain this for tomorrow.

05/30 - 169.6 - Morning weigh-in. Reason for success from yesterday behaviour: drank tonnes of water, stuck to keto plan perfectly. No night time eating, did mini-workout app and played soccer with my kid outside!!! Woot. And today went for about a 2 hour walk by the waterfront - so we will see how that pays off tomorrow. If everyday could be like yesterday!! But now too I know what ideal day is!

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 – get back to 134 for this round.... - aim to get back 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. Be able to met up with my beloved family.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/27 135 – 12.74 miles walked yesterday. Another good day, need to stay in this mind set. Started pre-logging in the morning again. 933 calories in credit and all macros well in green.
05/28 133.6 – wow ! greater loss than I expected, but I'll take it !! 11.27 miles walked yesterday, 537 calories in credit, all macros in green.
05/29 133.2 – wow, wasn't expecting that ! Another drop, just shows how if I consistently eat healthily what a difference it makes!! Must retain that info when I get tempted to binge! 8.77 miles walked yesterday, 540 calories in credit, all macros well in credit.
05/30 134 – 11.37 miles walked yesterday. Hopefully normal fluctuation, but knew the run would stop at some stage! 317 calories in credit and all macros in green.
05/31 134.4 - 8.81 miles walked yesterday. 155 calories in credit, but carbs 24g over, other macros in green, but sodium although within limits higher than normal because of mussels at lunch time. Hopefully this will rebalance today.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/27 - 153.6: Fairly happy camper. Ate great and hydrated alright. Stupid long work day, which was a contributor to the low activity. Fitbit's reporting 5,918 steps (2.59 miles).

05/28 - 152.4: Eggs for breakfast, and I figure the pack of (prepacked) deli olives I grabbed out of the fridge weren't the best quick lunch option, but it could've been a whole lot worse. Healthy dinner. Virtually strapped to my desk most of my waking hours, and in back to back meetings during normal work day. Making time to get outside are so beneficial, seemingly even more for my mind than body. Happy enough, and so very much looking forward to the weekend. Fitbit says 11,683 steps (5.1 miles).

05/29: 152.4 - What used to be called skipping meals can be considered IF, right? Last minute invite to bday dinner with my grownup kids. Binged on steak, mac&cheese, cake, and mochi. No regrets. Fitbit says 4,255 steps (1.86 miles).

05/30: 151.2 - Seriously surprised 1.2 lbs down after yesterday's binging and lack of activity. Decided Thai takeout might calm my troubled mind. My fav eggplant dish always causes tummy problems when I get the 4/5 stars. Today was no different. I won't get into details, but if you haven't read Amazon reviews about sugar free gummy bears, you will understand. Fitbit doesn't say much, since I lost my charger, but Endomondo says my walk was 4.11 miles.

05/26 start at 158.0
05/27 157.4 (-0.6) 12.929 steps, 6km bike ride
05/28 156.6 (-0.8) 1239 cal, 5.700 steps, I’m going to change things up and try posting in the evening, I’m going to see if it motivates me more when I have to be accountable the same day contrary to the next one when I've slept on it

Regarding my weight, I still have no idea why I went suddenly up, but it’s going down at last and I’m relieved! Today was a quiet day, yesterday being a very busy day (cycling, long walk). Food has been reasonable all day today, it’s now 6.30pm and that’s it till tomorrow morning.
05/29 156.4 (-0.2) 1580 cal (2200 available) 5000 steps and 13km walk. Lovely day today, productive! I went to the office for a few hours, the recycling parc and the car wash! It felt like a normal day except for the face mask 😉 As for food I was over calories but had banked extra by cycling I hope it'll be ok tomorrow!
05/30 157.2 (+0.8) What can I say! bread bread bread !

05/31 155.6 (-1.6) 1307 cal (1666 available), 4km walk. Thank goodness the bread bloat didn't stick! I made a massive salad bowl in the morning and whenever I got peckish I had a small plate. I'll do the same today. Bike ride planned later to visit my father but otherwise a quiet Sunday. In another week Belgium will start getting back to normal, my daughter will be going back to school full time and I'll probably go back to work in the mornings, although I'll probably still be alone there until the week of the 15th. So I'm going to make the most of this last week at home

Goals for the round -- End the round under 230; continue to log food and post every day; focus n snacking control at night. Also, continue to log steps -- I decided on May 18 to walk a million steps before the end of July (70 days.)

Round 100 SW 245
Round 112 SW 242 (4/27/20)
Round 113 SW 238.6
Round 114 SW 235.2
Round 115 SW 231.8
GW: 199

Day/Weight/Comment
05/27 231.8, ready for another round! Woke up to low blood sugar this morning, actually had to dump sugar in. (Insulin dosing is not an exact science, especially when one is losing weight. Last night's bedtime dose was apparently just a tad too much.) So with 6 AM "snacking" I am already going to have to budget calories for the rest of the day. Steps yesterday: 18,747; steps to date: 139,941, a little ahead of pace. Blister well bandaged but tender, most of my steps were in socks/no shoes at the office! With the hallways empty due to everyone teleworking, I got up and walked through every phone call. Today makes one month of 10 Days. Thanks, everyone for the help!

05/28 232.0, virtually unchanged. Steps 11,836 / 151,777. Perhaps instead of making my goal focus on snacking control it should have been exercising snacking control! I have bee focusing alright, I have far too much to focus on! I need to establish new habits.

05/29 231.8. Blood sugar has been doing well, can't wait for my next appointment with "Dr. Furious." That's not until late July, but I think he's going to be surprised (that I will have lost weight and my sugar is good), happy (at my results), and frustrated (that I haven't been eating correctly like this previously and therefore have had poor sugar in the past.) Steps 10,754/162,531. I wish my foot would heal so I could go for a real walk! This is probably going to set me back a week or more longer but it is my own fault. So more sock-walking in the hallways at work and flip flop walking around the yard at home! No worries, I'll get as many steps in as I can and won't fret about what I can't do. Besides, it forces better food discipline -- if there are no "exercise calories" to eat, I am forced to make better food choices instead. Have a great weekend, all.

05/30 231.8. steps only 8995. More later.

05/31 230.8, steps 8409. I am going to attempt to get a gauze bandage to stay taped onto my foot today and see if I can gradually start increasing the steps again. I need to find a work around or resolve myself to just sitting and waiting it out for whatever time it takes to heal. I have to at least get the from yard cut, the weeds are a foot high in places with all the rain. At least the scale finally moved in the right direction!
