Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 182.8 Totally deserve this (unfortunately). High sodium meal (stir fry) and then a mini-binge on chocolate and spicy pecans. Need to stick with the plan today, be more mindful.
06/17 182.4 My body seems to love this number so I may have to get used to hanging here for awhile. Rather be here than 10pounds higher! Yesterday was good for exercise, green for calories.
06/18 181.6 I’ll take the loss. Green by 200 on calories. Long work day with not much movement, but a late in the day walk.
06/19 182.8 ...and I gave it away last night. Very hot, somewhat hungry, hard to sleep, ended up binging on chocolate and crackers. Haven’t tried to total but probably an 800-1000 calorie hit. I’ll be working this off for at least a week. 😢
06/20 182.6 could have been worse considering the high sodium (but yummy!) chili-lime-salt cauliflower I had last night.
06/21 182.4
06/22 182.4 My body’s current favorite number. Could be worse, so I’ll take it. At least I didn’t get a weekend bump up despite some binging late Friday night and on Saturday.
06/23 182.6 I really thought this would be lower today. Green on calories without a lot of effort. But short on sleep, and we have a heat wave. Most of all I think this is a monthly hormone issue. If so it should resolve by the end of the week.

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.

*********
6/16 116.5 No hugs necessary for the gain. My scale only does half pounds and I’m 9.5 below my goal. I’m letting my body decide where it wants to stop.
6/17 117.0 I know I was short on water yesterday
6/18 117.5
6/19 116.5
6/20 116.0 DD#1 and DGD#2 arrive this evening. I will try to check in while they’re here. They leave at noon on the 24th.
6/21 116.5 Bonus surprise at the airport last night! Our oldest granddaughter surprised her mom and us by meeting up at the airport here! Haven’t seen her in awhile. Pg 13
6/22 119.0 Omelet House for brunch and Great Greek for dinner. Ate 1/2 a slice of sourdough and 1/2 a pita. SOOO many carbs. Tracked nothing, enjoyed family time which occurs too infrequently with kid and grands spread cross country.
6/23 NWI We had a great time at the pool and met with our SIL and my husband for dinner. I ate pizza so know tomorrow’s weight will be up. Not a problem. Granddaughter #1 is back in Cincinnati. Local granddaughters and visiting DGD and DD have gone to The Strip. It’s after 10PM and I’m tired. Have lab work early in the morning. NOT concerned about what I know will be a few added pounds. My finger joints hurt from carb related inflammation and I could hardly get my ring off. Haven’t read all messages but tomorrow will pick up where I left off.4 -
JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 117 (round 49 for me ) I'm in for another round – just keep going! Yet again thank you @GrandmaJackie, such a champion particularly in these unprecidented times, helping 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 132 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 another 10 days binge free! Keep calm, wash hands, be kind and follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus.End of round 69 134.2 lbsKeep calm – we're all in this together!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 133.4 – 11.62 miles walked yesterday, 25 calories in credit, 53g carbs & 2g fat over.
06/17 134.4 – 6.86 miles walked yesterday, but, it was DHs 60th birthday, I booked tickets for Clumber Park, family also booked tickets to surprise him & as DGC are still toddlers when they walked it was a slow walk. It was such a lovely day and we all took our own picnics. My calories in were higher than those out, and so that reflected on the scales.
06/18 134.8 – 10.76 miles walked, wonderful sunny day over the Long Mynd from Cardingmill Valley. 626 calories in credit, carbs 2g over.
06/19 134.8 – 7.22 miles walked yesterday. Child minded our DGD whilst parents were working, it rained all day, after tea it stopped so DH & I decided to get out in that window, a mile and a half from home the heavens opened and we returned like drowned rats!!
06/20 134.8 – 5.93 miles walked yesterday, again rain cut it short!! 18 calories & 62 carbs over.
06/21 134.2 – 7.91 miles walked yesterday, 64 calories & 54 carbs over. Happy Father's day to you all today.
06/22 134.2 – 9.52 miles walked yesterday, 604 calories in credit & all macros in green.
06/23 136.4 – 8.52 miles walked yesterday. My 5 month old DGS was admitted to hospital yesterday, DD had noticed that he had not been gaining weight and therefore growing despite her constantly breast feeding him(C19 has stopped all routine health checks in the community), after several contacts with the GP, her cutting dairy products from her diet incase of him having a cow lactose intollerance, he has been refered to a consultant & it seems that he is not got the capacity to retain glucose which is why he is constantly hungry & constantly feeding. He is now on constant feeding through a tube & glucose monitoring. I turned to chocolate as this developed and continued all through the afternoon and evening, hence the gain. Hoping for positive news on DGS treatment today, & am trying to channel my feelings into a way of helping; DD is on her own in the hospital, SIL is not allowed to be there too (due to Covid restrictions) and no visitors either! This virus has a lot of much wider implicayions to answer to!!!! Would welcome anyone elses experiences with this condition as not come across it before. Sorry to go on.
06/24 136 – 8.62 miles walked yesterday. 53 calories in credit, 47g carbs over; still not wholly good food choices, but more in control than yesterday. DGS had a rough night last night – poor little mite, he's suffering .

KEEP SAFE EVERYONE . Keep calm – we're all in this together!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 193.3 so shocked to see this number again 🙄 . But for real, I'm ready to see a downward trend. Patience definitely isn't my strong suit. Yesterday was okay. Slightly over calorie goal, yet better than previous couple of days. Hoping for a good day today.
06/17 193.6 yesterday wasn't great. It was my son's birthday and last day of teletherapy for PT/OT, and I'm behind at work, so lots of mixed emotions going on. I ate my feelings a bit with some sweets. And we ended up getting Wendy's for dinner since my son's favorite is chicken nuggets and fries (of course!), so that was a bit higher in sodium and calories than what I planned. I did choose a salad with grilled chicken and used 1 packet of dressing - so those are both wins. But I'm having a hard time sticking to calorie goals right now.
06/18 193.1 good day yesterday, over my step goal and only 60 over my calorie goal. Will keep on keeping on.
06/19 193.5 feeling puffy today. Really frustrated that I have such a hard time sticking to my calorie goal and crave sweets. I need to re-evaluate my strategies to deal with snacking since I'm not doing great right now.
06/20 193.4 I'll take it. Over with calories, lots of activity outside shoveling mulch and sweating my butt off. Today won't be a great day sticking to calories because pizza and cake is the plan for dinner, but I'll make the best of it.
06/21 194.6 SO much salt yesterday. And staying out in the heat. Definitely over calories, which was planned since we had a small get together for my son's birthday. I suspect with some extra water today I'll flush my system out.
06/22 194.7 yep, still have a lot of sodium in my system. Also, this weekend was kind of a wash. Half expected, but frustrating still. I have a meal plan for the week which should get me back on track. Onward and upward.
06/23 194.5 well I guess I'm going in the right direction. Finally threw out the remaining birthday cake so it won't tempt me anymore. Over my calories and under my step goal yesterday. Really struggling with having enough determination to make the choices that will promote the results I want.
06/24 193.9 stayed within my calories yesterday ✅, and got a small walking workout in. Good day yesterday.

06/20—181.0 Beginning again. Not looking back—here’s to the long haul! Just back from vacation, so hopefully the first couple pounds will come off quickly. After that it will be a long hard battle, but I need to return to where healthy eating and exercise are a lifestyle. I've done it before. Time to do it again.
06/21–180.4 Felt good to be back in control yesterday.
06/22–178.8 Making good progress so far. Traveling all day and much of the night today, so I’ll have to make wise choices. There won’t be much, if any, exercise. I will expect a little gain tomorrow, but if I make good choices, maybe it won't be bad. After a quick loss like today's, usually there's a bit of a bounce back up. Fingers crossed!
06/23–179.0 Not bad for an all-out travel day. Made good choices for the most part for the day. Zero exercise though, so need to make up for that today.
06/24–178.4 Had a very positive day yesterday. I made the BEST salad for dinner that I’ve ever made, and the whole family loved it. In case you’re interested, here’s the link to it: https://cafedelites.com/chicken-avocado-caprese-salad/

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 - 145.5 - I'm down 1.5 lbs. since last Tuesday, so I'm hoping this bodes well for this round.
06/17 - 145
06/18 - 145
06/19 - 145
06/20 - 145.5 - We went to my stepdaughter's last night for "Happy Hour on the patio" and I indulged a little bit. We had a great time though. After a couple whiskey drinks, my 63 year old husband challenged our 12 year old grandson to a push up competition. Grandpa won! He started to work out a few years ago when he turned 60 and he has been a big part of my inspiration to get in shape. I did tell my husband not to gloat too much though because in just a few years the grandson will probably be able to kick his butt.
06/21 - 146 - I'm sure this is still leftover from Friday and I had a patio party for my Dad today for Father's day so I'm not looking forward to the scale tomorrow. However, it was a nice visit and my Dad was thrilled to get his favorite burger and sides from a local restaurant.
06/22 - 146.5
06/23 - 146.5
06/24 - 146.5 - I am really stuck this week. I'll be drinking a lot of water today to try to get get to my starting weight tomorrow.

🌻🥀🌸🌹🥀🌻🥀🌹🌸🥀🌻Looking forward:
BLOOMING JUNE
🌻🥀🌸🌹🥀🌼🥀🌹🌸🥀🌻
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.
Aims:
- 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
Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 117 Posting weight and comments each evening.
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.

Super active day yesterday - I’ve been trying to get 30 minutes of exercise per day, usually swimming. Yesterday I did 30 minutes on the exercise bike because it’s been rainy and I wasn’t sure if I would get to the pool, and then I ended up swimming for 35 minutes as well. Ate back all those exercise calories and more, though - too many of the chocolate chip cookies my daughter made. At this point, my net calories have been over goal on three of the last four days. I’m still at a deficit though since my goal is set to lose 1.5 pounds per week so there’s some wiggle room, and the scale is going down. Just have to keep an eye on things and make sure it doesn’t spiral.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 159.6 lbs Graduation and now all the leftovers have been hard on the diet, but it was a good time. Hoping to maintain this challenge and be done with the leftovers. I have given away all that I can, hate to throw out the salads and buns. Froze some of the sweets for camping trips. We had a better turn out then I thought we would because of springs work being late this year and the virus but I tend to always over make food.
06/17 161.6 lbs
06/18 159.8 lbs Paddle boated with a friend, we traveled four miles and got sunburnt like I usually do even with sunblock. Started doing my back exercises again. Still to many leftover bars, etc. They might have to become dog treats.

Round 117
Month/Day: Weight / Comment
06/16: 214 / Looking forward to paying attention to my health for another ten days.
06/17: 212.2 / Amazing what a day without pizza will do for your morning weigh-in!
06/18: 211.4 / Heading in a good direction, but todays meals have been pretty salty. I will not be surprised to see a jump up tomorrow.
06/19: 213 / Aaaaand there it is.
06/20: 214.4 / A fish fry at the house last night. Breaded and deep fried crappie filets. Look it up if you need to, crappie (pronounced croppy,) may not be common in your part of the world. I love the planet-wide participation in this group. 😊
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crappie
My son and I caught them in northern Wisconsin last fall. The breading was salty.
06/21: 214.4 estimated.
06/22: 214.2 / Monday morning after 4 days with wife’s two out-of-town sisters + father’s day thrown in. I usually feel like a victim when excess(ive) calories are available for me to eat. It is like I am being forced to indulge. I need to stop the victim mentality and make some adult choices. That is all.
06/23: 212.8 lbs or 96.5kg / Thank goodness for our CSA vegetables every week. Our farmer could use a little rain! He works extremely hard, but it is a labor of love for him. He is harvesting this week’s share as I write this, and it will be washed and ready to pick up this evening at a local home less than a half mile from my house. (That’s about 0.8 kilometers for my friends on the metric system.)
Not to ramble, but I sometimes wish we had gone to metric in the United States. I am an architect, so I know how hard it would be to change an entire industry here that is based on increments of 12 inches. Some products are metric units of measurement… usually finishes.
My weight listed above in both lbs and kg in honor of this detour.
06/24: 212.4 / Unless I blow it today with some sort of mindless binge that tacks on 5 pounds, my ten day average will be less than my previous ten day average.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16 - 182
Although I’ve set a loss goal for this round, my most important goal is to stop snacking at night. If I do, I’ll lose weight. I often eat when I’m not hungry, and that adds a lot of calories. So lose or not, I’m going to try really hard the next 3 rounds to cut the snacks. If I can do it for 3 rounds, that should go a long way toward breaking the habit. I’ll record my progress here. And yes, I did snack last night. In the meantime, here’s a rose.
6/17 - 182
6/18 - 181.8
Mostly no snacks. I had some air-popped popcorn last night but calories were below goal, so all good. Off for a walk and then mulching the garden and deadheading/weeding before the heat. Be well, all!
6/19 - 182
I’m feeling energized suddenly, maybe because my garden is coming together. A year ago, the perimeter of the yard was all river rock and there was one tree, a very sick maple — essentially a desert. It’s not yet the way I want it, but it’s come a long way and aside from a wide variety of plants, we have rabbits, chipmunks, toads, butterflies and caterpillars, several kinds of bees, and lots of birds. How is this related to weight loss? Working in and enjoying the life around me blocks depression that makes me eat too much or what I shouldn’t.
6/20 - 181.8
Wishing you all a happy solstice and beautiful summer! It’s hot here but overcast today, so not bad. I’m doing some gardening this morning and planning a walk in the afternoon if the clouds remain, otherwise evening. Calories were well below goal yesterday even with my evening popcorn. 🍿
6/21 - 181.2
Okay, a little progress maybe. Still hoping to make my goal for the round. It’s cooled off this morning, so I’m off for a walk and hoping the greenway won’t be too crowded if I get there early. Then I have lots of deadheading and weeding to do! Luckily, we have leftovers. 😎
6/22 - 181.6
I haven’t conquered the snack monster completely — I had a small dish of ice cream last night — but at least I’m not randomly snacking all day. Little by little. Calories were slightly over goal but well below maintenance, so there’s that. Onward! May not hit my weight goal — I should know better than to set a goal for something I can’t control. Behavioral goals are better. Next round!
6/23 - 181.2
It’s cool and cloudy this morning so I’m off for a nice long walk. I feel much more in control this round — finally! Reading all your reports helps keep me inspired, so thank you all!
6/24 - 180.6
Well, that’s encouraging. Maybe I’ll hit my weight goal tomorrow after all. Even if I don’t, I feel like I’m back on track. Oddly, I feel lighter even if I haven’t (re)lost much yet. It’s a gorgeous morning here, so off for a walk. Happy hump day!

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!
06/23 117.8 Yesterday was really nice. I took the day off of work to recover from painting and make up for the things I typically do on the weekend like dishes/laundry etc. I also decided where to put some pictures on the wall and finished hanging some mirrors in my new office space. The CSA pick up was AWESOME. So many vegetables that I’m excited to eat this week! I made whole wheat spaghetti last night with tomato sauce but I added a summer squash, scallions, garlic scapes and fresh basil.
Today we went for a nice walk that was a little longer than 4 miles. For dinner tonight I’ll be making taco salads and I’m so excited for it! I’ll be making black beans in the slow cooker to go with it (I usually just use canned beans because they’re so easy) too!
06/24 117.8 Yesterday’s food was really on point again. All of the produce from the CSA is really forcing us to eat so many more veggies…which I love! I made a yogurt, peanut butter, and inulin (a soluble fiber powder) dip yesterday to dip an apple into and it was so good! Then, the taco salad bowls totally hit the spot last night too. I used lean ground beef, onion, black beans, brown rice, a cilantro cashew sauce, fresh tomato and red leaf lettuce for them. It felt like a feast even though it was within my calories for the day. So good!
Today we did the soccer drills for exercise. I feel like my watch hasn’t been very accurate in relation to my heart rate because I feel like my exertion is a lot higher than what it’s reading. I know the watch isn’t as accurate as a chest strap but usually it registers a higher heart rate than it has been for these workouts. Oh well! I’ll try to clean the watch a little better to see if that helps a bit. Enjoy your day!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/16 182.8 Totally deserve this (unfortunately). High sodium meal (stir fry) and then a mini-binge on chocolate and spicy pecans. Need to stick with the plan today, be more mindful.
06/17 182.4 My body seems to love this number so I may have to get used to hanging here for awhile. Rather be here than 10pounds higher! Yesterday was good for exercise, green for calories.
06/18 181.6 I’ll take the loss. Green by 200 on calories. Long work day with not much movement, but a late in the day walk.
06/19 182.8 ...and I gave it away last night. Very hot, somewhat hungry, hard to sleep, ended up binging on chocolate and crackers. Haven’t tried to total but probably an 800-1000 calorie hit. I’ll be working this off for at least a week. 😢
06/20 182.6 could have been worse considering the high sodium (but yummy!) chili-lime-salt cauliflower I had last night.
06/21 182.4
06/22 182.4 My body’s current favorite number. Could be worse, so I’ll take it. At least I didn’t get a weekend bump up despite some binging late Friday night and on Saturday.
06/23 182.6 I really thought this would be lower today. Green on calories without a lot of effort. But short on sleep, and we have a heat wave. Most of all I think this is a monthly hormone issue. If so it should resolve by the end of the week.
06/24 181.4 Finally some change! Not back to my previous low yet, but closer. Long hot day, got some exercise but minimal other movement. Somewhat over green yesterday but definitely under maintenance.

06/18 202.5 really just focusing on getting back in the habit of logging food, drinking more water, and being accountable here. My daily calories are still not in a huge defiecit...im still night nursing. But my quality of foods is improving. Plan on slow and steady loss!
06/19 202.0 stand in scale only does .5 lb increments.
06/20 202.5
06/21 203 back at work and didnt get water breaks, definitely dehydrated. Had a salty dinner last night too. Onward!
06/22 203.5 definitely not on my a game by any means. Feels good to be back in the habit despite lack of perfect eating or losses. Remembering its tiny baby steps!
06/23 203
06/24 202.5 things that feel better already; anxiety is easing, less negative self talk, eyes arent as puffy, feeling positive about the future, not afraid to get on the scale. I havent given up anything and I've very minimally reduced calories. I'm happy to feel better despite any number on the scale.

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.
06/23 188.1 I walked 18,000 steps yesterday and stuck with food plan. Hopefully I will start losing again tomorrow.
06/24 188.7 Very frustrating! I walked 8 miles straight yesterday morning, ending the day with 19,000 steps and ate within plan. Hopefully I will see a drop tomorrow.
