    Day/Weight/Comment
    05/27 - 62.2kg, the beginning of a new round, definitely going to see it through :-)
    05/28 - 61.9kg, an unexpected drop! Is it sustainable, would be amazing if it was...
    05/29 - 62kg, which is fine considering, happy to be here for a bit, but no gaining please.
    05/30 - camping
    05/31 - camping
    06/01 - 62.2kg, whaaaugh! Food choices limited while camping and too much rain to do any walking :-/
    06/02 - 62kg, better, not just hoping for better tomorrow but doing the hard work
    06/03 - 61.7kg, that's great, but there's been lots of bouncing around lately so not sure if this is sustainable
    06/04 - 61.3kg, hmm, weighed twice so that's it for today, sure to bounce back for final day of this round :-)

    🌻🥀🌸🌹🥀🌻🥀🌹🌸🥀🌻
    WELCOME TO JUNE
    🌻🥀🌸🌹🥀🌼🥀🌹🌸🥀🌻

    #norniron #stayingsafe@home

    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.
    • June: 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 by keeping busy

    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!

    Thank you so much for the kind and supportive words. Focusing on gratitude and pushing myself to feel uncomfortable feelings. Distracting myself with work and ice cream just isn't sustainable. If it was, I'd surely keep on doing it though! 😂

    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 115 (round 47 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 – 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.
    06/01 135.6 ?? I'm disappointed with this, I walked 9.95 miles yesterday & was 441 calories in credit, all other macros in green. Oh well, lets hope it's still just normal fluctuation. I'm not giving up, today is Monday and I'll get on with it!! Four days to get back down. Making the apple bread today.

    ?�゚マᄐ?マᄐ?�゚マᄐ This is NOT A DIET - It’s a PERMANENT LIFESTYLE. ?�゚マᄐ?�゚マᄐ

    Enjoy the apple bread! Is it the recipe I posted last week? If so, it tastes great with the tiniest sliver on butter melted on top of a heated slice! It's been my breakfast for the past 4 days. Still not sick of it :)

    Made the apple bread that you posted, tasty but find it a bit too sticky, think next time I'll use less apples. I did make sure that the weight was correct; apples where quite small so ended up using 7, I think that was excessive. Hubby loves them, but I have to say I prefer the banana bread that I usually make. It does make a change though. Thank you for sharing, it's always good to try new things,

    Nice, I’m glad you made it. The oats definitely give it that stickier texture, so I can see how it wouldn’t be for everyone. I’m happy you tried it though and that your hubby loves them at least. :smile:

    @kblanc14 - I've reversed my opinion on the flourless apple bread after I fetched a piece out of the freezer to have after my walk today; for me freezing it first is obviously the answer, it takes the stickiness away and it is so delicious!! It's a hit from me!!
    I'm doing a socially distanced afternoon tea in my garden for my gluten allergic sister next week; they are so going to be served to her as one of the sweet treats.

    Thank you so much for sharing the recipe xx
