Just Give Me 10 Days ~ Round 119

Katterin227 · July 2020

Female, 5’7, age 42.

SW 241.8
End of round 115: 235.2
End of round 116: 232.0
End of round 117: 228.6
End of round 118: 227.6

7/6: 226.0 First day of getting back to strict tracking after a couple looser days produces a nice drop on the scale. Still feeling a little bloated, so we’ll see what happens in another day or two.

7/7: 227.0 Had a hefty late night snack around 1 AM, so I’m not surprised to see a bump despite technically being within my calories. Walked a ton but ate most of the calories back.

7/8: 226.0 Might have to cut back on exercise a bit today; I’ve been doing a lot for the last week and my body is sore. I hate to do it because of the Apple Watch challenge I’m in, but I think I need a light day.

7/9: 224.8 Another drop and a new 5-pound mark. Probably be up a bit tomorrow - gotta recognize the low fluctuations as much as the high ones - but I’ll take it for today, and get back to it for real soon.

7/10: 225.6 Very snack-y day yesterday. Half expected this to be higher, really.

7/11: 225.6 Happy to have held even. Pot roast and mashed potatoes at my parents’ house and had two plates - one of those meals that won’t hurt you every now and then but adds on the pounds if you make a habit of it!

7/12: 227.0 Ha. I predicted this number before I got on the scale, which should tell you something about how much I ate yesterday. Gotta get back on track to make this a temporary blip.

7/13: 226.0 Seems to be a recurring weight this round. Ate within my calories, working on pulling this trend back in the right direction.

7/14: 225.6 Another recurring weight this round. Out of nine days so far, I’ve been at 226.0 three times and 225.6 three times.

07/06 - 58.1kg, ? the scale!! We'll see what happens. Close to goal so this could be my last round...
07/07 - 58.3kg, a hard day yesterday with cold rainy weather, eating just kept under control

07/09 - 58.0kg, < 12,000 steps yesterday, out to lunch but healthy choices, yummy pork soup for dinner
07/10 - 57.9kg, > 12,000 steps yesterday, I felt hungry and had to have a snack meal (healthy), dinner was so-so but healthy
07/11 - 57.9kg, >13,000 steps yesterday, bit of sunny weather for a change, weekend now so need to be extra careful...
07/12 - 57.6kg, >12,000 steps yesterday, late lunch, snack for dinner, all counted and fine, weight loss slowing with more calories

TerriRichardson112 · July 2020

@Tesha231 My scale gives me other stats, apart from weight. Muscle/fat/water percentage, BMI, bone weight, and daily calories needed (TDEE) I also sudofed body measurements. Currently I have lost about 48” overall.

TerriRichardson112 · July 2020

‘sudofed’ Typo 😂 I do body measurements 😂

TerriRichardson112 · July 2020

@musicsax (((Hugs))) So sorry about your little GS. Praying for him. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

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.
July: focus is on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:

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!

Day/Weight/Comment
07/05 …..207.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/06 …..207.5 ….. I did really well during the holiday weekend. I couldn’t afford a set-back. Too busy for planned exercise, not enough water and little to no sleep but at least the diet was on point and the scale rewarded me a bit for that! Good luck everyone this round. You guys are Rocking It!!!!

07/77 …..208.6 ….. A small cheeseburger from McDonald’s with water. It tasted like a salt shaker (again). I forgot how salty!!!! Wow how my tastebuds have changed. This is probably fluid retention. Tomorrow will tell.

07/08 …..208.4 ….. Downward I go. Just not fast enough but patience is a virtue and so I’ll stay calm.

07/09 …..208.4 ….. There is not enough water on this EARTH for the thirst that I am experiencing!!!!

07/10 …..209.0 ….. Mexican food – half for lunch and half for dinner. Actually did not finish the dinner and completely ignored the rice, throwing it away too. Growing up so poor, it is not always easy for me to throw away food or not finish what is on my plate, so I call this a NSV for me. I am trying to learn that it is okay to be full and not need to eat more just because it’s not all gone yet. Today I will try to get the scale back down and drink more water too.

07/11 …..209.8 ….. WTHeck? I food prepped, ate low carb diet well and kept calories way down. Still retaining some sort of water? I don’t know how when I am sweating like this. I am not going to get discouraged. I must just keep up the good fight.

07/12 …..209.6 ….. Up fast, down slow but I do get how it works in general. Ugg.

07/13 …..209.6…..

07/14 …..209.6 ….. humph…..

07/15 …..xxxxx …..

@Tesha231 Thanks for the tips regarding “finishing my plate”. It just may help!

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. Recovered from back then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurts!

The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

@musicsax I cannot imagine the anguish you are enduring right now. I will be praying for you, your family, and a miracle. I don’t know where you live, but can you seek a specialist? Someone at Duke, Vanderbilt, Johns Hopkins or some other first class medical facility? Someone who specializes in the genetic disorder your sweet little one suffers from???
