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.
05/31 …...206.8 ….. It never whooshes down quite as fast as it whooshes up, but I’ll take anything I can get! A busy workday today then more travel tomorrow. Today has GOT TO BE ON POINT!
06/01 …..206.8 ….. Travel again today. Today I get my CT scan to compare to 6 months ago when they found an “anomolly” on my lung. We are hoping it is not metastasized breast cancer. I have been in remission for a few years now. What they found on the lung last fall was new so there is that worry. I will also be picking up more remodeling supplies while near a big box hardware store. I will try to be a little more mindful than last time I travelled, but a restaurant will be part of the trip as it is going to be an all-day event and a long way away. Let’s hope I make decent choices while enjoying the city after my test. I won’t get results of the test until a telehealth appointment on June 10th.
06/02 …..208.2 ….. Had pizza during the travels. I didn’t eat the crust but it is still carb heavy. I will push water today and hope that what I saw this morning is all of it. Blazing HOT here today and no air conditioning. Miserable. A lot to do since I was gone yesterday. The first part of the month is always tough with a lot of bill paying etc. Getting back to it! Have a wonderful day everyone!
06/03 …..208.8 ….. Day before yesterday still showing up on the scale. Too much paperwork and sitting yesterday. Otherwise, the diet was pretty good. Another tremendously busy day today and tomorrow. I would love time to prep cook but I don’t know if I will fit it in. I have things I’ve prepped in the freezer that I will rely upon today.
06/04 …..211.2 ….. A death in the family last night. Some would say it was somewhat expected but it doesn’t feel that way to me. More stress eating. NO, let’s clarify-binge eating was more like it. It started with a fast severe glucose drop (probably from the stress) and ended in an all night frenzy. I wish I was a better sleeper, the binge would have been shorter. Last night I slept 3 hours & 1 minute. That is about 60-75 minutes shy of my normal 4 hours of sleep. Today I am choosing me. I have a stressful and work-filled day ahead but I am going to come first (for once).

05/27 - 152.3 - 20 rounds in for me now in this challenge, I have lost 5 pounds over the 200 days. Lots of time and hard work for small results, but always happy to be trending down. I know that I could very easily put that 200 days of loss back on in one weekend. It would suck to have to spend another 200 days to get rid of one weekend of eating yummy stuff.
05/28 - 153.2 - Had some yummy stuff, keeping it to one meal, once in awhile.
05/29 - 152.6 - Hoping to see the 151s this round
05/30 - 151.4 - I slept in today, so this number could be a little skewed, but I will take it! New low.
05/31 - 152.7 - I am okay with that, 5 more days to work on lowering it.
06/01 - 151.7 - Another sleep in day. Hope to see the 151.4 tomorrow.
06/02 - 150.7 - Yet another sleep in day - Yay, new low
06/03 - 150.7 - Great. Maybe into the 140s by sometime next round.
06/04 - 150.6 - Right direction, even if small, all good.

Shows how unobservant I am !!! Lovely dog.5 -
@quiltingjaine - skip the class/es - your daughter is so much more important. You could always consider returning after your daughter's visit is over. Nothing is more important than your's and your family's health xx.5

@deepwoodslady - condolances to you on the loss in your family, I am thinking of you at this very sad time. I know how easy it is to turn to food, but try your best to limit the damage as you will regret it in the future. I know what I say will not make it any easier for you, but even so I am sending lots of virtual hugs your way. Chin up chuck !!!

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.
05/31 191.6 approximate total cals 1380 trying to catch up on water today. I have had a bad headache every afternoon this week and it's really getting old and I want to eat chocolate and that's it.
06/01 191.8
approximate total cals 1558 which was a bit higher than I wanted, ended up having a 100 cal popsicle and 1.5 glass of wine last night before bed, just needed to unwind a bit. Still looking for a drop before the end of this round but approaching TOM is not helping in the least Ran 3 miles this morning and time was a bit quicker. In fact that is one of my big goals at the moment- I feel if I drop a few lbs my running will be easier!
06/02 192.8 approximate total cals 1873 so more like maintenance cals almost. well I didn't overeat but we had fried chicken for dinner due to company and I had potato salad (first time in forever) it was good but the carbs are sticking with me obviously. Lots of water today.
06/03 192.0 approximate total cals 1288 so on target there! hoping for a whoosh before the end of this round but body is not cooperating so far. NSV for today, my running partner told me today she could see some noticeable changes in my body so that was nice!
06/04 192.6 approximate total cals 1418 just keep swimming, the whoosh will come some day

They took him back to the gate and put him off. Meanwhile, with his mask under his chin, he walked the length of the plane, exposing everyone to who knows what! Our friend has put herself in 2 week quarantine due to this. Our clubhouse has opened and water aerobics starts tomorrow. I have mixed feelings because I know so many in the neighborhood don’t respect social distancing and personal space. Am I wrong to consider skipping that class because in 2 weeks our daughter is visiting for the first time in 10 years?
I'd definitely skip! knowing "so many in the neighborhood don’t respect social distancing and personal space .... "5 -

06/03 - 61.7kg, that's great, but there's been lots of bouncing around lately so not sure if this is sustainable

06/05 - 61.5kg, expected uptick, but happy way to end this round.7 -
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.

@deepwoodslady I am so sorry for your loss.
When you say you had a severe glucose drop, I believe I've read before that you're diabetic and have been trying to manage it?? I'm not diabetic but I can relate to your comment of an "all night frenzy" because I am hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) and when mine drops, it IS a frenzy and you just can't seem to get enough food in fast enough to get rid of the shakes, confusion, light headed, etc. I'm glad you are choosing YOU today. I've read your posts and you work so hard. I think you run your own business by yourself if I'm remembering correctly. Take care of yourself.

I missed this round and will miss the next one as well due to lots of traveling these 3 weeks. I so miss the accountability and posting but trying to stay on track. I pop in when home to see how everyone is doing and had to post a comment to @merph518 - Your puppy, Sophie, is sooooo adorable. Just beautiful. Is it a Lab? How old is she? I lost my sweet "puppy" after 14 years recently. I miss him so much!

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 - 152.6: 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.
05/31: 150.2 - Emotionality rough first part of the day, including another memorial service. Talked it through, which really helped... but so did a pint of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food. No regrets.. Fitbit says 15,206 steps (6.66 miles).
06/01: 152.6 - The trouble with using ice cream to fix my feelings isn't that the scale goes up a little the next day. The real danger is that it sets off the phenomenon of craving that makes it so difficult to stop again. Seem to be back on track, but hard to say after one day.
06/02: 151.6 - Fell asleep before I had a chance to add my comment yesterday. Sleep is good! Ate well. Relaxing evening. Could've drank more water. Fitbit says 7,978 steps (4.48 miles.)
06/03: 152.2 - Huh. That's weird, but whatever. Ate well, but not enough food or water. Butt hurts from sitting at my desk today and hardly moving. Fitbit scoffs at 2,876 steps (1.26 miles).
06/04: 150.4 - Ah yes. Another long day of sitting not moving. After stupid healthy late lunch (leftover vegan sweet & spicy mango tofu eggplant pulled out of the freezer) roommate asked, "Thinking about getting pizza. Will you eat some too?" Happy to be of service! Fitbit hardly says 2,535 (1.11 miles).
