Round 117
1st time doing this! Goal is to lose 2.5lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
06/16- 196.4 lb
06/17- 194.4 lb I’m so excited!! I’ve been stuck for a week and it all decided to come off at once.
06/18- 195.00- unfortunately this was expected since my 2 year old thought it’d be great to get up and start the day at 2am. This momma is exhausted and running on fumes at work.
06/19- 195- expecting a rise since I had a few drinks at volleyball last night and am meeting friends in a few hours at the bar to watch some EPL.
06/20- 195.3I’m having too many cheat days. We had a babysitter 2 nights in a row which NEVER happens so I’ve been splurging. Back to the grind tomorrow.
06/21- didn’t check
06/22- 198 - welp I guess that is what happens when you binge eat and drink for 4 days straight. Hoping a few lbs come off quickly flushing out all the salt intake. It all depends on how you bounce back and I already worked out this morning burning 700 calories so good news is I’m back on track.

Hi everyone! I am back. I did this for a couple of years and then just had a multitude of things happen and I stopped. I had reached my goal of 138 in January and was maintaining. Then everything in the world happened. I had applied for a job that I never thought I would get and got it! So after 15 years working for the same company I quit and started all over in a new place in February. So far so good on that front, but they also decided I needed to go to school and get my medical billing and coding certificates. So not only am I working full time, but I am now going to school full-time. Then we got sent home for Covid to work from home in March. I gained 15 pounds in 3 months! Which was onto of the 5 pounds I had already gained switching jobs and dealing with all of that stress. So yup I gained 20 pounds in about the last 5 months. So I need to get this back under control and get back down to my maintenance weight. Just for the people that are new or don't remember me. I am a mother of 5 kids (20,19,18,14, and 11) and have an absolutely amazing husband! So I am always busy and something is always going on.
06/16 - 160.5 I of course started my period on Sunday so I don't think this is a real number. Yesterday I weighed 163.0, so either yesterday I was really high or today I am dehydrated. Ouch! It was the first time I stepped on the scale in a couple of months. Good day yesterday accept my alcohol intake. I am working on that though.

06/18 - 161.4
06/19 - 160.4
06/20 - 159.8
06/21 - 162.8
06/22 - 164.8 Did really well the entire work week, but did not post at all. Then the weekend came and I destroyed all my progress. I know a ton of this is sodium, but it is still frustrating. We just had restaurants open back up at 50% so we ate out Saturday and Sunday. I actually did pretty well, but sodium kills me. I had a bloody Mary with my dinner last night and could not even put my wedding ring on this morning. I had forgotten how much salt affects me since I quit weighing everyday. Hopefully I can get it back on track today. Water will be my friend!

Round 117 – June 16 to June 25
Female, 5’, 67 years. SW – 168.8 GW – close to or under 167, UGW – 140.
Back again after a fast trip to new location to check out houses. Lots of stress – The house we had our eye on suddenly dropped $10,000 which made a total drop of $36,000 so we were afraid it would sell fast (which it has). Our house still has, at the very least, 2 - 3 wks. work to get it ready to list (We got it incredibly cheap as a fixer-upper which we gradually lost steam on.) and we just can’t work like we did years ago. Weight loss went from “in denial” to “it was ugly” – thanks @eyesopennow .
Positives out of this though: When we actually saw the house - not really what we’re looking for. After looking at a few houses have a much better idea of “how the house looks online” vs. “what you are actually getting.” Great realtor who has lived all his life in that area and could answer all kinds of questions. Did only gain a couple of lbs. despite stress, carpal tunnel pain from overdoing it and tiredness (it’s about a 12 hr. trip from here).
Things are coming along and I just have to keep working at it, but not overdo it. Have to remember that taking care of my body is also important …
Goals: continue with 12 hr. IF, 5-6 glasses of water a day, complete my tracking every day and get some kind of outdoor exercise unless it is raining – in which case indoors.

06/19- 168.8 – Reading through posts and typing this out has definitely helped me refocus.
06/20 – 169 – Tracked everything, no IF – had bowl of 2% Greek yogurt. Hours of gardening but just deadheading and weeding so not a lot of calories burned.
06/21 – 168.8
06/22 – 169 – Did not track yesterday and had a very relaxing day and nap in the afternoon. Really needed the no pressure to get stuff done day. Did manage to resist the temptation for a late evening snack. Stomach complained that I was starving and ‘needed’ something, but ignored it and slept great.

Round 115 SW 199.6 EW 192
Round 116 SW 191.6 EW 189.2
Went off the wagon over quarenteen, but started logging again during round 115. My goal this round is to stay in the 180's. No alcohol this month and at least 20,000 steps a day!!
06/16 188.9 Good! Got 24,000 steps yesterday and ate within plan.
06/17 188.5 Bit by bit, I will lose this fat! Walked 23,500 steps yesterday and stayed on plan. Drank 1/2 glass of wine. I have to be careful not to get back to drinking wine every night, so I will not do that tonight. Lot's of sparkling water!! My resting heart rate has gone from 75-79 to 65-69 in the 2 weeeks that I have been walking 10 miles per day. I feel like that's a win!
06/18 188.5 Hoping to see a drop tomorrow. Walked 24,000 steps yesterday and stuck to meal plan. Walked 2 hours straight on the Greenway, which was so nice. I'm about to go do that again! Since I'm not traveling this summer because of Covid, I am just walking everyday.....
06/19 188.1 I was really tired and hungry yesterday, so I decided to listen to my body. I ate a little more than I have been eating, and I only walked 14,000 steps. I am happy to see a drop!
06/20 188.5 Trying not to get discouraged...I know this is just my body readjusting. I walked 22,000 steps yesterday and worked out my arms with weights.
06/21 187.6 Great! I feel like I am fighting for every 1/2 a pound here. Glad to see a drop. Walked 25,500 steps yesterday. We are having the grandkids over for Father's day and ordering from our favorite Italian restaurant. Going to control myself........
06/22 188.1 I earned that gain! I ate pasta and drank wine last night. We had the kids and grandkids over for Father's day and ordered from our favorite Italian restaurant. Had a great time, but back to business today!! Walked 16,000 steps yesterday.

Big drop on the scale today! I won’t be surprised if the next few days are a little higher, this is clearly another outlier - but it feels nicer to be on a weird low than a strange high. Honestly, this is why I weigh every day - the ups and downs are unreliable, but putting all the data together and using something like Happy Scale shows the true story.
Bigger story is that for the first time in three years of owning an Apple Watch, I had a perfect week! Closed all three activity rings every day Monday through Sunday. That’s not a huge deal for a lot of people, but I rarely close the exercise ring that regularly.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/15 …..208.7….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/16 …..207.6 ….. A wonderful way to start! Diet was on point and calorie burn was good due to some hard work at home. Good Luck everyone this round!
06/17 …..208.4 ….. I had a very severe glucose drop yesterday that came on quickly while I was working with some hired help. I quickly brought it back up (within 30 minutes) which left me too high in calories and carbs yesterday. However, I burned 3423 calories so that has helped to keep the scale under control (being over carb usually leads to 3-10 pound overnight weight gain). I am hoping today will go better. So far, so good.
06/18 …..208.4 ….. Finally I slept in the 4 hour range again. It had been in the 3 hour range for the past few very busy days. Still yet, I woke up very tired. Carpet installers arrived early so today I will be moving back in lots of heavy furniture (with help). I wish I had time to prep cook. I’m hoping I can fit it in this weekend. I also need to log & track my food again. It does greatly help me to stay on point with portions.
06/19 …..208.4….. I suppose TMI would help. Maybe soon. 4.5 hours of sleep. I woke up very tired today. It has been a very rough and physical week. The heat is horrible and no AC in these old cabins in my area. No major stores either so there is little relief. My main goal today is to try and keep the house as cool as possible for my 20 year old cat. Fans all about the room moving the air so she is staying comfortable so far. I did not have time to prep cook yesterday for a large batch, but I did cook a lovely shish kabob dinner low carb style with chicken and healthy veggies. Leftovers for lunch today.
06/20 …..208.4 ….. Stubborn Fat! That’s okay. I plan on winning this staring contest!
06/21 …..208.3 ….. Losing my temper…..
06/22 …..208.2 ….. like a slow leak in the tire, but at least it is going down.

About me: I love learning about food and everything about it; from the way it acts in the body to learning to cook a new recipe. I went to school for nutrition (got my bachelor's) but I didn’t become an RD because it didn’t feel like the path for me. I guess I wanted to keep it as more of an interest instead of a career. I then went into public health to further my education and I currently help medically complex patients by connecting them with community resources to improve their health and life. I enjoy helping family and friends when they ask for advice related to food and nutrition. Plus, it helps me brush up on what I spent so much time learning!
I’m here because when I’m not paying attention to what I eat, I start to gain and feel uncomfortable in my body. For me that results in frustration and a lot of other emotions. It has also increased my cholesterol in the past (It’s good now as far as I know thanks to diet and exercise). I have a family history of diabetes, heart disease, and all that fun stuff. So, I want to prevent that for myself by getting a hold of my food habits now.
I’m always open to conversation about food and nutrition, so feel to reach out to me!
06/16 119.2 Yesterday was a pretty solid day food wise. I had one of the last piece of the raspberry beet baked oatmeal with cottage cheese and pineapple for breakfast/lunch. Then, the chicken cooked in the croc pot was so good! It was also fun because I got to pick up my CSA share. We got two pints of strawberries and lots of different vegetables, which I’m very excited about!
This morning we went for a nice almost 4 mile walk. Then, when I got home I made an apple rhubarb crisp to use some of the apples and rhubarb we got yesterday in the CSA share. I’ve never had rhubarb before so I’m excited to try the crisp! Have a good day everyone!
06/17 118.6 Yesterday was another good day food wise! My breakfast was an apple rhubarb crisp I made (and will be my breakfast all week), then for dinner I cooked some shaved steak, caramelized onions, and broccoli rabe. I put all three of those ingredients on a whole grain bun and topped with cheddar cheese. I even got a “this is really good” from my husband without having to ask him how it is 😊. I also agreed with him! It was nice to have something different and I’m glad that shaved steak was an option as an add on with our meat share we picked up for June.
I think tonight’s dinner will be a salad using pea tendrils, sliced radishes, tomatoes, asparagus(maybe roasted), cucumber and a mint yogurt dressing. (I’ll probably throw some beans or chicken on top) I got the inspiration for it from this cookbook called “The Herbalist’s Kitchen” by Brittany Wood Nickerson. It is such a lovely cookbook to look through time and time again, along with having yummy recipes!
Have a good day!
06/18 117.8 This is interesting, and I wonder why it’s dropping so much the past two days. I wonder if it’s a whoosh or just my scale being funky. I don’t think I’ll believe it until it’s consistent. Consistency is key for me. I did have a bunch of asparagus last night because my husband didn’t want his…maybe they are a diuretic and helped me out this morning. Who knows 😊. What I do know is that the body is so complex.
We went for a nice walk this morning and yesterday was solid for food. The salad I made was so good! The yogurt mint dressing was the perfect complement to the naturally spicy radishes. That yogurt dressing recipe is a keeper, especially because it’s so versatile depending on what herbs you have available. Not sure what’s on the agenda tonight for dinner but I know CSA veggies will be involved. I also decided to create a blog to document my adventures with the CSA’s we get. If you’re curious its eatinglocaladventures.wordpress.com. Not sure if it’s allowed to share within this forum but my disclaimer is that it’s a work in progress and my photography skills are severely lacking but it’s just a place for me to share what I have done so far. If others enjoy it… great, if not… that’s fine too. I had found a blog before I decided to get the csa that had documented what they got each week and I found it very helpful. This resulted with me wanting to maybe help someone else too!
Have a good day everyone!
06/19 117.8 Woo, another day at this number! I’m excited for tonight because we are celebrating our wedding anniversary tonight (real anniversary is next Wednesday) with Thai takeout (first time since middle of March!!!) and homemade Key Lime Pie for dessert. So, there will be some Thai Drunken Noodles and pie in my future! I’ll be making the pie this afternoon so it’s nice and chilled by dinner time tonight.
We did another soccer workout this morning which was very good at getting my heart rate up. Food was pretty solid yesterday as well! Have a good day and wish me luck in not eating too much of the key lime pie batter when I’m making it later today 😉!
06/20 Didn’t post… painted from 5:30 AM to 10:00 PM
06/21 120.0 This isn’t a true weight because I chugged water this morning when I woke up because I was dehydrated. Yesterday was a very long day for me because I painted my home office space (The size of a good size bedroom) and resulted in some minor dehydration from not drinking enough water throughout the day. But I LOVE the new colors even with me seeing that I missed some spots. Oh well! I don’t want to touch a paint roller for a very long time (I did two coats of primer and one coat of color). It went from a dark blue to the color Frosty Mint (three walls) and Minty Fresh(accent wall). The colors don’t look like the sample chips, but I like the color even more because they have a Caribbean feel to them.
It’ll be such a nice bright space for me to work from home in. 😊 I’ll post a before and after picture once the space is put back together.
I only ended up eating my Thai leftovers and Key Lime Pie yesterday because I got carried away painting and wasn’t hungry for dinner/painted through it. Ooops lol.
06/22 119.2 Yesterday was a good day food wise and more normal. My body was sore from painting so I took it easy exercise wise. I have officially set up my office and love it so much!! It’s amazing what changing the color of a room can do for the feel of it.
It’s CSA pick up day and I’m looking forward to seeing what new veggies we get 😊. Not sure what I’m in the mood for dinner tonight. It’ll probably be something easy because the CSA breakdown can be quite a process. Have a good day!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 - 60.1kg, no harm done overall from last Saturday's dinner out :-), not enough walking yesterday.
06/17 - 60.1kg, no change, no bounce up, so all good; that said I felt like I didn't eat quite right yesterday...
06/18 - 59.9kg, < 60kg is the best news, need to lose 1 more kg from a pound-perspective to get < 130
06/19 - 59.9kg, is this a new trend? Last night I felt like I ate too much dinner, although calories were okay...
06/20 - 59.8kg, things moving slowly this round, forgot to wear my fitbit yesterday!
06/21 - 59.9kg, interesting, got lots of steps yesterday > 20,000. Rainy today so not so good for walking.
06/22 - 59.6kg, sweet drop, feeling a bit under the weather now but at least it's a sunny day today :-)
06/23 - 59.2kg, not to be believed, sick with a sore throat, limited walking yesterday and had to forego chocolate.
