    @Antiopelle I'm always..not happy, but reassured others are struggling too. And you are right: there is often a weird synergy going on in the group 😆

    I'm with you on the rollercoaster! I go from days with veggies only and feeling super dandy about it, to eating everything in sight. Main issue I have is I can't stop once I slipped. Caved a little and had a piece of chocolate? Well the day is ruined now, might as well have 2 ice screams, a waffle, and a snickers! Terrible flaw.

    It's is not the French guy (I wish! ;)) , but now you mention him: he is making a return visit sometime this month... <3

    I have my BFF living with me temporary. It's been amazing but also sad because she's moving back to her home country end of this month. I'll miss her so much.

    #1 GET OFF THE ROLLERCOASTER
    what this means is that I need to quit always worrying about did I gain a pound or two and lately I have found that I am tending instead of eating at a nice steady pace I am either binging or restricting more and more. It's a no win zero sum game so my plan is to just eat to my TDEE and log consistantly
    Jul 1 done. Lesson of the day. Did not even end up eating all of the dinner items and didn't feel stressed over it
    Jul 2 done. Lesson of the day. OK to have a good snack mid day, Still nicely at TDEE
    Jul 3 done. Lesson of the day. Do not get so dehydrated. I felt like I couldn't get enough to drink and slept poorly
    Jul 4 done. Lesson of the day. It's dang hard to reach #2 without a nice run and just a nice reminder to eat at TDEE even on a less active day because some days are way more active and the whole point is increasing energy
    Jul 5 done
    Jul 6 done
    Jul 7 today - and then it will be one week down!!
    ********* week 1**********

    #2 800 active minutes per day (Apple watch) goal.
    This should NOT be difficult and I hope for it to energize me. My avg since I got my watch in late Dec last year is 817 per day and my average in June was 791 but May was 866 so I have felt like my activity trend is going the wrong direction.

    Jul 1 hit 1019 with a 10K run included
    Jul 2 hit 929 with a 5 mile run
    Jul 3 starting well with a 7 mile run (I love the stronger feeling of not being in a deficit/binge type mode) now to just keep it up. A nice set up activity 1090
    Jul 4th Going to be tough to hit 800 today but I am not going to quibble and try to say well it's the AVG. LOL. Started with a nice walk of about 45 minutes. Will walk more and drink more today I think. If necessary I will add a walk this evening before all the fireworks start. WOW - that was hard. Managed 820 tho!!! SCORE!! no quibbling.
    Jul 5th starting well with a nice run. I think also due to goal 1 I feel stronger already. hit 968 YES!
    Jul 6 a little slow on the run but 856 so far for the fist week I am averaging over 900 per day
    Jul 7 started with a good run so should hit goal today... :)

    Welcome ladies. The thing about that dang rollercoaster is that it is REALLY sneaky. I start with a minor deficit. Yeah very healthy to just lose 1/4 to 1/2 per week. And I do well but then the scale fluctuations are SO great I then have a bad day and the entire deficit is wiped out. sucks. So then I think ok BIGGER deficit. and on and on and on.. And as the deficit gets bigger my energy decreases and the spiral appears never ending. sigh. So JUST STEP OFF THE ROLLERCOASTER!!!

    Made a batch of the Diet soup last night. Will be sticking to it for a few days. (I leave to Michigan for a week vacation on Thursday!!) I needed to clear the fridge anyway and I want to feel lighter. Just like the others mentioned, soon to be 50, alcohol doesn't do us too well.
    Here is a recipe if interested. (I didn't use bacon or green beans. and used zucchini and cauliflower because thats what I had!)

    IBIH TURBO ATKINS DIET SOUP – LOW CARB & PALEO

    4 slices bacon, chopped
    1 Tbsp olive oil
    ¼ cup onion, chopped
    1 Tbsp fresh garlic, minced
    ¼ cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
    1 cup sliced white mushrooms
    8 cups chicken stock
    3 cups water
    2 cups celery root, peeled and chopped into ½ inch cubes (or cauliflower, jicama, radish, turnip)
    4 cups cooked chicken breast, chopped
    2 cups yellow squash, sliced and quartered
    1 cup green beans, cut into 1 inch pieces
    4 cups swiss chard, chopped (or collards – NOT KALE)
    2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
    ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
    Salt and pepper to taste

    DAY 1 (1216 calories, 83g fat, 17g net carbs, 84g protein)

    Breakfast – 2 eggs, 1 tbsp butter, 2 pieces of bacon, 1/2 avocado, unsweetened bulletproof coffee or tea (using 2 Tbsp fat)

    So, apparently I've learned to maintain fairly well. Had to do pics with one of my horses and I'm not thrilled, time to tighten things back up. :-1: Right now, I've been struggling to find the motivation to log consistently. I'm grateful for this group keeping me accountable because my giveadarn is not really working. I even quit weighing in every morning - which for me, makes a difference.

    Goals - keeping it super simple right now
    1. Be consistent - weigh in and food
    2. Get to the 130s - this is past the point of ridiculous

    July 1 - 142.6day/144.0ave
    July 2 - 146.0 - I made stir fry chicken last night and I think it's maybe all the sodium in the soy? Weird, highest weight I've had in ages and I didn't eat badly yesterday. Lots of water today and shaking it off.
    July 6 - 148.6 - Obviously I over-celebrated the wknd. I seem to blow up with water weight when I get dehydrated and too much junk food. Rode out in the mountains yesterday for about 6 hours. Such fun! Decent start today, got up at 5:30 and worked one horse before work. Cool & crisp - sunrise is one of my favorite times to be outdoors. Using this Monday as a fresh start!
    July 7 - 148.4 - one step at a time. Yesterday I did well on food, kept it at 1200. Last week I got lazy and ate out for lunch - hubby was in town so I ate whatever I picked up for him...and then inhaled dinner + snacks.. I'm paying for it now. Good start today - up at 5 and rode before work. The more I stay outdoors, the better I do with food.

    My goals this month:

    1. Get off the rollercoaster - consistency in eating and moving around. Not going from restricting to much one day to overeating the next, being a Netflix binger on Saturday and walking 25K on Sunday.
    2. Current weight: 73.0 - goal weight by the end of the month: 71.0
    3. Get my yearly steps back to goal, which means around 80K to 100K a week

    07/07: 73.0
    08/07: 72.9 - there we go :smile: This evening after work, I have a dental appointment. This will certainly help with overeating today !

    ME:
    30y * 5'9" * Weight goal: 63kg (138,89lbs)

    JULY GOALS
    • Keep up the good workout routine with focus on glutes
    • Stick to IF and do some longer fasts again (even though at home it's super difficult)
      38h and counting
    • Push through instead of constantly going up-down with good and bad days
    • Start logging again

    WEIGHT - 7 day averages
    06 July: 70kg
    08 July: 68.1kg

    Currently at 38h fasting. I know it's not actual weightloss (most of it is water of course) but I still feel like I've been reset! Nothing works as well as a fast to get rid of cravings.

    @I4a_p, 38h!! Way to go!
    The only time I fast is before a doc appointment!🤣
    It's 1 thing I can't seem to stick to. I get up at 6:30 and I get so hungry around 9-10am. (dinner around 6-7pm) On the weekend when I sleep in another hour and go workout, I don't get hungry till noon.
    So being at the desk, working is the killer- :/

    averaged 967 active minutes. Success but it's not a steady rate and today again with just walking may be hard to reach the 800 but NO EXCUSES... Week 2 here we go.

    I have a great feeling about everyone this month...

    I agree with weatherking, fasting just causes me to binge. I admire the folks who can do IF or Fasts and I know that it can be successful for many as a kick start.

Started back on vit d today, realized I've gotten out of the habit of taking it every morning. Decent start today - up at 5:30 and rode till 7 so at least I got in some exercise before coming to the office to sit on my butt all day. I swear desk jobs are the absolute worst.

    @SummerSkier Yeah, the MOVE ring is set for Total CAL. 800 is pretty up there! Mine is set at 580... 🙄
    @cayenne_007 I'm with you on the desk job being the killer- hate it. Want to find a PT job with benefits.

    @weatherking2019 - ME too!!!! I don't currently have benefits, but I think I can go to PT in the next 3 years. I've been racking my brain to come up with something I can do from home. The horses provide some income, but I'm happier with a more predictable paycheck. I loathe sitting in the office. We've been slow and I could do my job in 20 hours a week.....but company policy - my body has to be on the premises no matter what for 40. Rant over... :smiley: (at least it's air conditioned)

    Well I have a desk job as well but I try to make sure I get out before and after work. And min of 20 minutes breaks to walk morning and afternoon. It's harder working remotely as I no longer have the longer walks from the parking lot or to the restroom. And I miss walking at work with my friend. :(

    I had set my move goal to 300 for a while and I might change it back for August. ;)

    Oh you guys kept saying PT and all I could think of was Physical Torture... you mean part time job.. duh. :p

    @I4a_p any news on the fast? You have a cheering crowd here waiting for news ;)

    And to the others, desk jobs are killer! Similar to @SummerSkier I do try to take regular breaks in the morning, lunch break and afternoon to go for a walk. So nice and it just feels good to stretch the legs. Also moving around to fetch coffee/tea or check on things down the hall. Going there by bike. All stuff I'm missing or not getting in as activity when working from home usually. I do try to maintain at least the lunch walk. But the rest is difficult. Too easy to continue working and forget the time.

    All in all I'm currently wondering whether to look for a new job right now, or reduce from full time to part time. Not sure yet. But I feel like making some changes on that front.

    In return, this week I already got a run in, plus 3 days in the office. Later today run no. 2 this week. And yesterday was the first pole class with teacher again. Teacher is not allowed yet to support/catch the students but it was still good to have someone be there to spot and make suggestions where things didn't work out. Bit of muscle soreness now :) It is more intense than practicing alone it seems, hahaha.

    ********* week 1********** pretty consistent not restricting or binging but I think a little light to TDEE at avg in of 1678 so will gradually increase . Closed diary every day.

    Jul 8 I think I still might be eating a little light to TDEE but not pushing things.

    #2 800 active minutes calories per day (Apple watch) goal.
    This should NOT be difficult and I hope for it to energize me. My avg since I got my watch in late Dec last year is 817 per day and my average in June was 791 but May was 866 so I have felt like my activity trend is going the wrong direction.

    ******** week 1*************
    averaged 967 active minutes. Success but it's not a steady rate and today again with just walking may be hard to reach the 800 but NO EXCUSES... Week 2 here we go.

    Jul 8 so yesterday I just did not feel like running in the morning. But I still managed almost 26K steps with my morning walk. I ended the day pleasantly surprised with 895! So a good lesson that even when I don't get half of these from a morning run, I can still meet my goals!!

    34/5'4"

    Motivated by money, I did something every unhealthy and stupid to lose the weight quickly to win a DietBet so I knew it would come back

    I promise that there will be no more of that as it was awful!

    New goal is to treat myself better for the month of July and lose slowly and gradually in order to ensure long term success :)

    agreed. I don't really like participating in those challenges because it tends to enforce poor behavior. I did one Apple watch challenge just to see how it worked. I did one fitbit challenge too. Since my goal is to get "off the rollercoaster" I don't ever like to participate in the diet type challenges because you are right in that it's not sustainable loss or good behavior training. :(

    I logged a day late because I didn't realise yesterday was Wednesday :#

    1lb down! Very happy with that as progress. Also found out that I will be returning to the office on Wednesday and I am very happy with that. Managed to get some runs and walks in and feel a little more in control.

    Until Sunday. It's my partner's birthday so we are going out for dinner. Mind you, it's a 15-20 min walk each way to the restaurant so we'll be somewhat good at least!

    Height: 5'10"
    HW: 183lbs (Fri 24th March 2017)
    SW Jul 2020: 172lbs (1st Jan weigh in)
    Ultimate goal: Not sure. Starting with 160lbs
    Jul goal: Below 170lbs

    1st Jul: 172lbs
    9th Jul: 171lbs

    Hey all,

    not going to post weights today. Weight was up this morning but my muscles are also quite sore, so there's that as a potential reason. Takes some getting used to again to more running, and pole, and stuff :) But it feels NICE! B)

    Anyhow, weekend challenge No. 1 of July is right around the corner. In-laws will arrive tomorrow and stay until Wednesday. One evening dining out (1st time since the Corona age started :# ), the rest is cooking at home. Fingers crossed for better weather so that we can go for long walks somewhere!

    At least there's enough time tomorrow morning to go for the running class and run some last errands before they arrive. Not sure, how logging food will work out the coming days, but I'll report on Wednesday how it went.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone!
