R119 - Lost 2.9# - 172.6
R120 GOAL: 169.9 Need to dip my toe into the 160's!
IF: 16:8

07/16: 173.2
07/17: 174.4 If my goal was to gradually gain everyday, I'd be on target. Not being able to track food/exercise due to visitation and funeral the last couple days makes the difference. Back to normal today, if normal is even a thing anymore.
07/18: 173.6 Heading back to the gym after a week off. Glad I kept walking outside, but expect a slight increase in water retention for swole tomorrow if I Iift late in the day. Still right for the long run--no pun intended!
07/19: 172.8 Good sore today. Donating blood at noon. Sleevin' Up!
07/20: 170.8 It's true--"a pint IS a pound the world around!" Ate extra of things I normally wouldn't to build back my blood. (Within my MFP calorie limit of course) Really enjoyed a serving of red-skinned potatoes topped with steamed broccoli and an extra serving of the hub's chicken from the smoker. Walked prior to donation and only a short walk in the evening.
07/21: 170.7 Walked 3 miles in the heat; uphill both ways (lol); grateful to make it back to my door--and my fitbit did not automatically sync to show my calories earned--and didn't sync all day! So disappointing, not that I eat them back anyway but I just like to smell them.

Round 120
Month/Day: Weight / Comment

07/16: 212.4 / Starting this round at my average for last round. NSV: yesterday I actually reached my hand out to pick up a 2nd donut at work, and then pulled it back. Thought about how it might affect my 10-day challenge. Wish I could be that way all the time. Does anyone else feel obligated to take a donut or cookie that someone else brings in to share at work? I do not want to hurt their feelings or put-down their act of kindness. I think I am actually wrong about this.
07/17: 212.0
07/18: 211.8 / I will happily take this, since I did not weigh until mid day after fishing all morning. Left the house at 3:45 am. Drank a lot of water. Tomorrow will be higher. I may need a nap. 😊
07/19: 213.8
07/20: 215 / Another weekend with DW family as house guests. Throw a family reunion in there for good measure. I made awesome Kabobs yesterday (So I am told.) Sous Vide the steak and finished it on the grill with the veggies. Another festival of salt these past two days.
07/21: 211 / I feel like a pufferfish . ( https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/group/pufferfish/ )

07/16 181.2 Boo. When will I start dropping real weight again?

07/17 180.4 Ok, this is better. All week I’ve been on track for food and getting my walks and weights in. Now need to keep on track over the weekend. The weekend backtracking has been self-defeating.

07/18 179.2 Wow, awesome.

07/19 180.4 Not surprising; I ate extra as I’m on clear liquid diet today (Medical check tomorrow).

07/20 Doesn’t Count

07/21 179.4 Thought maybe I’d retain a bit more of the procedure loss, but that’s ok. Happy Scale is under 180 even for the averages, so I’m happy!

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 free to reach out to me!

Previous days’ entries

07/16 116.8 We went for an awesome walk this morning clocking in at 6.52 miles. It was a pretty one too, up the small hill/mountain we have in my city and back home. I just ordered a flat of 12 pints of blueberries for next week in addition to our CSA. I think I’m going to take a couple days off from work to make a bunch of different goodies with them 😊. I need some me time and I think that will be perfect! Dinner tonight will be leftover pesto pasta and chicken with some leftover roasted veggies because they really need to get eaten.
07/17 116.2 It’s raining this morning, so we went for a 3 mile run in the neighborhood instead of a soccer workout at the fields. Then, I continued after my father in law headed home and did another 3 miles of walking and spurts of running when I got chilly. For breakfast today I plan on making some oatmeal with fresh blueberries, peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut cashews, cinnamon, and a dollop of Skyrr. I love that it’s a little cooler because it will be the perfect day to enjoy a hot bowl of oatmeal! I plan on making pork chops with BBQ sauce with a massive salad for dinner tonight. Still trying to figure out what I want for a snack/lunch in between the two of them. Happy Friday!

07/18 116.2 Early morning post for me. I’m just relaxing while the house is nice and quiet. I plan on doing a body weight workout and then jump on the spin bike for a bit today. I’m not really sure what I have planned for food today except that I know eating a cucumber feta salad will be in my future because I have a couple cukes to eat before we pick up our csa on Monday. I also have beets and summer squash to cook/ do something with. I have a beet and blueberry muffin recipe that I’m tempted to try from the Run Fast Cook Fast Eat Slow cookbook. I also kind of want to try and make refrigerator pickles with the squash and one of the cucumbers.
Last night we end up making Pho for dinner because we had some instant mixes back from when I had the flu in February. I added the pork cut into slices, bok choi, onion, and summer squash (My husband wasn’t a fan of the squash). It came out pretty good and it was a nice quick dinner that didn’t break the calorie bank. I didn’t bother tracking it because the two mixes together totaled 500 calories, so I knew I would be okay with us splitting that and the addition of pork weighed less than I had originally expected. I was satisfied hunger wise for the rest of the night and my husband ended up munching on some cashews and a spoonful of peanut butter while we were watching the Rev’s soccer game around 8ish.

07/19 116.2 Yesterday was an awesome day. I had a non scale victory of being able to do 7 chin ups in a row during my body weight workout. That makes me feel good because I know I’m still gaining muscle while losing weight. That has been one of my goals because I want to have a good amount of muscle so I don’t end up being skinny fat (which isn’t healthy either). I also have sore legs from said body weight and spin bike workout.
Food wise, I had fun making whole wheat blueberry muffins with the wild blueberries we picked last week. I also made some more granola and refrigerator pickles using CSA zucchini and onion. Breakfast was a blueberry beet smoothie from the cookbook Run Fast Eat Slow (Shalene Flannagan and Elyse Kopecky’s first cookbook) along with a cucumber salad with 2 oz. of feta. Snacks were a blueberry muffin, yogurt with blueberries and honey granola. Dinner was basil fried rice made by my husband. It had ground chicken, Jasmine brown rice, onion, frozen stir fry veggies and a concoction of soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and one more sauce, I think. Then I had a large apple for dessert. The stir fry was so good! Plus, I love when he cooks dinner 😊.
Tonight’s dinner will be burgers made with our CSA ground beef which is super lean. I think I read on their website the beef is about 95% lean. We have to use up some Kaiser rolls in the fridge and I was thinking about caramelizing some onions too. I’ll grill up what’s left of the summer squashes from our CSA for a side. If any greens are left well have some salad too.

07/20 116.8 Just floating in the 116 range for a bit, but I’ll take it 😊. I think I’ve been eating a lot closer to maintenance, but I’m cool with it. I went for a 6ish mile walk this morning. Yesterday was a good day filled with organizing our space and clearing out some stuff. It’s CSA pick up today and looking forward to seeing what we get! Hopefully, it’s a little more lettuce and less funky greens this week. A girl can only eat so many greens that she’s not too fond of to begin with. I love kale, spinach, lettuce, arugula and the Tokyo Bekana (new to me last week), but the more mustardy greens are too strong for me and I just force myself to eat them.

07/21 116.4 It’s crazy that my legs are still sore from my workout on Saturday. I didn’t even feel like I did a ton of stuff to them. Yesterday was good food-wise, for breakfast I had my usual yogurt with fruit and granola and for dinner I made pulled pork in the pressure cooker so it would be easy to throw together after I cleaned my CSA produce. For sides we had sautéed zucchini, beet green stems, and an onion. We also each had a ½ ear of corn on the cob. My wish came true about my CSA pick up this week, we only got 1 bunch of kale and beets with greens on it. The rest were vegetables like corn, cucumbers, squash, onions, scallions, tomato, and a few other things. Have a good Tuesday everyone!

Eeeek! Salt.

7/17 - 181.4
I’m sitting in my garden and just had a close encounter with a ruby-throated hummingbird who hovered about 2 feet from my face for a few seconds. Several gold-finches are flitting around the Black-eyed Susans, coneflowers, and sunflowers, and sparrows are picking up nesting material (aka weeds and grass) I pulled out of the beds and tossed on the lawn. And no lawn mowers! Just birdsong and cicadas. Off for a walk now, and I have today’s menus all planned. Have a lovely Friday, all.

7/18 - 181.4
Snacked a little last night — popcorn — but I’m keeping calories under control. I’m itching to dig new beds in the garden but we’re under a heat advisory the next couple of days so maybe not. I’ll get an early walk in, though. Yay, Saturday!

7/19 - 181.8
Muggy Sunday! At least there’s a breeze. My garden seems pretty happy! Be well, everyone.

7/20 - 181.4
Ok, back on track. It’s a gorgeous day here, so I’m off for a walk, then working on taking out lawn on the side of the house. Planning to fill it up with mostly natives plus some colorful annuals (sunflowers, zinnias....). The less lawn, the better— that’s my motto! 🌻🌸🌱

7/21 - 181.2
Another beautiful day unfolding here. Right now I’m sitting in my garden watching hummingbirds courting, a bunny munching clover, sparrows redecorating a nest in the maple, and listening to a hawk I can’t spot in the bright sky. I really should get up and do something. Oh wait! I am doing something! Have a lovely, everyone.

07/16 - 136.3
07/17 - 135.7
07/18 - 135.2 | Losing weight much quicker than I expected, maybe being too strict on calories? Feeling super tired pretty much all the time, but I also have a newborn child, so I was previously just chalking it up to that.
07/19 - 134.7 | Even consumed a decent number of calories yesterday, still came down more than expected. Also not drinking a ton of water, so that might be part of it.
07/20 - 136.2 | Yeah, I think the lack of water the last few days was a mirage. Gonna get back on track!
07/21 - 134.7 | I guess yesterday was a weird blip. Back down to the weight from the day before. Made the famous low calorie protein powder cheesecake from the recipe section of these forums. While not particularly delicious, it is surprisingly filling for the calorie count (mine, with blueberries, is ~200 calories per serving). Eating that for breakfast around 8:00am has (so far) kept me from wanting a morning snack until lunch comes.

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.

7/16 116.0 Last month we donated blood and subsequently learned we are slightly anemic. 2 weeks ago the doctor told me to start taking 1 iron tablet a day and to increase my magnesium. Well, there is a battle royals waging in my belly for the last several days and I’m afraid to leave the house - if you get my drift! Today I’m planning on taking nothing but my BP meds and fasting until 4 at least - that’ll be a 24 hour fast. Only black coffee and water.
7/17 116.0 Three year keto-versary! This WOE has improved my labs each time they have been checked. My blood pressure is down and I’m 51 pounds lighter than I was. Unfortunately, due to COVID I’m not comfortable at the gym where people still don’t wipe down the equipment and cancelled my paid membership yesterday. I can still go as part of my insurance plan but not use the extras.
7/18 115.5 Yesterday must have been steak day! I see several of us on this thread had steak. We split a T-bone. Back in the day I would have eaten the whole thing by myself-it was just over a pound including the bone. I had a few Brussels sprouts and about a cup of broccoli - OMAD! And we ate “dinner” early - before 3.
7/19 117.0 We ate at Great Greek yesterday. Delicious temporary weight gain! I always go up after Greek salad and gyro meat. And today we have plans for lunch with neighbors - Chinese take out - haven’t had Chinese in MONTHS! 91 degrees with 10% humidity at 8 AM, going for a high of 112 today.
7/20 118.5 Neighbor treated us to take out Chinese. Need I say more? This too shall pass. No worries.
7/21 120.0 A carb filled day of leftovers which are now going in the trash. 4 days of carbs = 4.5 lbs Back on the plan today. I’ve got this!

Round 120 - Started MFP and 10-Day Challenge 12/27/19 - 186.0 (Heaviest weight ever!)

I am so determined this round.

I want to hit my first goal (173.2) this round and then move from there to finally get back to the 160's over the next 2 rounds!

Row and/or free weights 8 of 10 days ✔✔✔✔
(8) 8oz water per day ✔✔✔✔
4 to 5 vegies/fruit each day ✔✔✔
No sugar ✔✔✔✔✔
No Bingeing ✔✔✔✔✔
IF 6 out of 10 days ✔✔✔✔
New Challenge - Pushups. Today I could literally do only 1 pushup barely and this was with my knees down. Do them every day and hopefully be able to do 10 soon. My husband suggested maybe doing some bench presses too. ✔✔✔✔✔
1/2 tsp of added salt ✔✔✔✔

Round 120 Start Weight: 174.4

07/16 - 174.4
07/17 - 174.2 Sore from my one pushup and many tries from yesterday LOL. I could do 3 today going only halfway down. I thought my arms were stronger from rowing but either I didn't know how weak I was or different muscles.
07/18 - 173.9 Hit 173s YAY. May take a few days to stay there. I think I'm holding less water weight due to eating less salt?? Also drank more water yesterday - finally!
07/19 - 174.0

07/20 - 173.8 Just maybe I'm in the 173s now to never see 174 or above again! EVER! Bring it on - I am so ready for this. Rip the damn bandaid off! I've learned slow and steady works and to have realistic expectations and to do it the healthy way. However, when I say "rip the bandaid off," for me that's not radical at all considering I've lost 12 pounds in 7 months. I think I have room to go a little harder, or really just to work harder at being consistent. It's all about the bingeing - pure and simple! Doing well at the moment with no sugar and with my bingeing - knock on wood!

07/21 - 173.7 My exercise yesterday: Washing sheets/blankets for 2 beds. That doesn't sound like much exercise, eh? When I bought my washer, I had no idea that it would only have 1 hot cycle, and by hot, I mean the washer mixes with cold water, so luke warm, and literally only 4 inches of water. I carried 17 buckets of water down the stairs to the basement for 5 loads and worked my arms by heaving them up to the washer too. (My husband kept trying to help but I wanted to carry them to burn calories.) I boil water to just get the water barely hot. It's a high-efficiency washer which is good for conserving but when you have to split your clothes into multiple loads and use your stove to boil water and add a lot more water, it is no longer conserving. I'm happy with conserving but I still need to get my clothes clean LOL. With that and cleaning all day, I burned a lot of calories!

Day/Weight/Comment

7/16 163.0lbs, 35.2%bf; 6h38m/85 - good sleep! Mostly a great workout, but got a little light headed at the end. The rest of the day was busy. Glad to be getting back on track!
7/17 162.4lbs, 35.0%bf; 6h28m/81 - up for bit in the middle of the night - again. A little sore.
7/18 164.2lbs (?? why ??) 35.5%bf; 5h45m/71 - slept straight through, but clearly not long enough. Out early doing yardwork since it will be SO hot today.
7/19 163.6lbs, 35.3%bf; 8h18m/91!!! Got up a couple times during the night but was always able to get back to sleep.
7/20 162.8lbs, 35.2%bf; 4h16m/59 - well, that certainly isn't good rest. It's too hot.
7/21 162.8lbs, 35.2%bf; 6h50m/84 - better! So frigging hot! 🔥

07/16 163.2 Holy hell! Serious wake up call!!! 3,383 steps - Personal training session via zoom.

07/17 161.6 Nice walk today. 11,938 steps

07/18 162.2 I expected a little rise in weight since we had really salty Indian food last night. I'll drink a lot of water today and go for another long walk.

07/19 162.2 I cleaned outside windows. Holy moly that's tough. Then we watched Saving Mr. Banks, so we needed to have English tea. You know - with cream and sugar.

07/20 163.2 Workout at 12:30 (339 calorie burn) and cleaning. I don't know what's left to clean, but I'll find something. Then I need to meal prep because I don't trust myself any more. 4,362 steps

07/21 162.2 Walked today before my class. I'll walk again afterwards. I did meal prep yesterday, so I'm all set for today.
Going to the beach tomorrow.

7/16: 223.6 Finally some weight dropping off in the last few days, after several days of up and down but overall staying about the same.

7/17: 224.4 I was within my calories yesterday, but most of them were near the end of the day. And I had dropped a lot in the last few days, so it’s not surprising that it’s up a bit as that whoosh balances out. I also like days like today where my scale weight is right on the trend line - feels like it’s finally showing my “true” current weight through all the normal fluctuations.

7/18: 223.6 Back to the low from two days ago and smoothing out yesterday’s bump.

7/19: 223.6 Seems to be the number of this round.

7/20: 223.8 Yesterday was one of those days where I ate within my calories, but completely unhealthy: my two main meals were a fast food burger and pizza. (Stayed within calorie limits by ordering the junior burger and only having two slices of pizza.) Also didn’t move as much as usual because my dad and I got started on a board game that takes a while; we’ll be playing more today but I plan to get up once an hour and at least walk around a bit.

7/21: 222.8 Recently I read that according to one early study, a BMI of 30 or above was associated with a higher risk of complications from COVID, and a BMI of 35 or above was associated with a higher risk of death. As of today, I am below a 35. Hovered right above it for a few days, so it feels good to have gotten here.

07/21: 235.8 (-1.0)/20.2 (-0.1). Here I go again! Life has been rough. I'm really trying to get out of my current job... let's call it an "unsafe work environment." I'm just trying to hang on until something pops up, and I'm a little bit scared that it's not going to happen in time. That being said, I AM SICK OF BEING FAT. So here I am, coming back to the place that has always seemed to work for me in the past. The great news is that my wife is not only on-board with the idea of me getting fit/healthy, but she is actually joining me on the journey. There are always negotiations that need to take place; she wants to define her exceptions and "cheat days" before she gets into any routine, and I am much more about jumping in and figuring out those things as they come. Honestly, I don't believe that you need to "plan" cheat days; they happen ALL THE TIME. Anyways, I'll be around consistently for the foreseeable future. I've been struggling to do this, but something is different this time.
