    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

    08/05 114.8 Sweet 😊. I went for a really nice but sleep deprived walk this morning around 6 to destress, after waking up at 1:30 this morning to find out my mother in law was heading to the ER (heard abnormal footsteps upstairs and checked on in laws to make sure everything was okay.). She’s stable but weak. Hoping they can get some TPN going to get some nutrition in her.
    On the bright side, it is was a nice afternoon yesterday and I realized how much I’m used the sweetness of fruit versus candy. After having my soft serve ice cream with Reese’s peanut butter cups and cookie dough mixed in, I was only able to get through about 2/3 of the cup before it became sickeningly sweet. I feel like I could live without ice cream for a while after having that yesterday.
    Baking some chicken legs drizzled with a basil chimichurri tonight for dinner with some CSA veggies on the side. Looking forward to it!
    Have a good day everyone!

    08/06 115.0 Had a much better night sleep last night. Went for another great walk this moring and snuck a couple miles of running mixed in. The running made me realize how much my body detests me running on pavement though. I think I’ll stick to the grass for running.
    Last night’s roasted chicken legs came out yummy! The side salad of zucchini ribbons with tomatoes on top was pretty tasty mixed with the basil chimichurri sauce. My husband doesn’t really like summer squashes but when I make them into ribbons, they are tolerable for him. So that worked out well.
    For dinner tonight I think I’ll be making a burger of some sort 😊. Looking forward to it with roasted or grilled eggplant as a side!
    Creeping into another phase of my cycle, so I have a feeling my weight will just be stable or blip up over the next 5ish days. I highly recommend people track their weight with their cycle, it’s been fascinating for me to be able to compare from each month when I blip up and then coast back down. I’m realizing so much more now about how my body reacts to the phases and even certain foods I eat during each phase (sodium mostly).

    08/07 114.6 Sleepy this morning and feeling a bit fatigued from my approaching next phase. We did a slower modified soccer workout this morning because we were both feeling the events of the week as well.
    Plan on eating at maintenance today because I feel like I just need the extra calories at the moment.
    Dinner was good last night. I made burgers on the grill with our csa ground beef which is super lean. I had a bunless one because we only had one roll left and I offered it to my husband. We each had a slice of pepperjack cheese on the burgers. He had fries on the side. I grilled eggplant (he doesn’t care for eggplant) for me and had a small portion of fries. It was a solid dinner because I made the burgers about 8oz.
    For dinner tonight I want to make a peanut sauce and mix it with ground white turkey meat and put it on top of brown rice and shredded zucchini. Then I’ll make a cucumber salad with rice wine vinegar and a touch of the peanut sauce mixed in with it.
    I know this is a long-winded post, but I’m also excited that the clothes shopping I bought online arrived, and they all fit/look nice! I also dropped a dress size in my jeans! Have a good day! 😊
    08/08 115.6 Did not post today.
    08/09 118.2 Oh hey salt, hormones, and water weight. Had salty chicken pot pie for lunch yesterday and then had a spur of the moment French fries and chicken fingers for dinner. Today, I feel the puff in my face and have the desire to drink lots of water and just eat fruit, veggies, and protein today. I have some CSA veggies to eat before tomorrow, so it’ll work out perfectly.

    Yesterday was fun because we started our day with a nice walk through the woods, then I made a new batch of granola and granola bars for us when we go hiking/camping Tuesday to Thursday this week. The granola bars are a concoction of peanut butter, chocolate chips, honey, inulin, plain egg white protein powder, vanilla extract, rolled oats, puffed millet, puffed buckwheat, and a touch of salt. I didn’t follow a recipe and just went for it. They didn’t set up as much as I hoped, so I think I’m going to cook them further today at a low temp to see if that helps. If it doesn’t, they’ll just be a touch gooey but delicious.

    Today I think we are going to explore a couple of trails my husband was reading about last night. Then, I’ll be packing for our adventure and going through some of my baggier clothes to donate. Plus, it’ll give me the incentive to not gain the weight back if I don’t have those clothes anymore.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    08/05 - 202.4
    08/06 - 201.8 - Going in the right direction! I didn't log perfectly and snacked a LOT, but I chose healthier snacks. I told myself that I wasn't going to exercise yesterday, but I got out and walked 4 miles yesterday. The goal for today is to stay on track, drink 100 oz of water, and go for a run.
    08/07 - 201.6 - It's not much, but its something! I had a tough day yesterday and didn't eat as well as I intended. I also took a day off from exercising. I plan on going for a long walk with my dog today and a bike ride this evening. Hopefully, I can stick to my planned food today.
    08/08 - 201 - Happy to see a lower number for another day! I didn't stick to my planned food yesterday, but def tried to balance good and bad choices. I'm going to the beach with a friend today, so it's going to be a lazy day. Hoping to get a bike ride in to make up for some missing movement.
    08/09 - 201.8 - I'm not surprised by this increase. I went to dinner and made some poor food and alcohol choices last night. I considered not weighing today, knowing that it would be up, but I need to own the choices I made yesterday. I'm glad I weighed myself because the increase is small, and it reminded me that it isn't the end of the world.

    Goal for 10 day challenge: -1.0 lb

    08/05: 132.4 lbs - I've been dead-on with measuring food and getting my workouts in; joined the August running challenge to keep me accountable for getting my runs in.
    08/06: 132.2 lbs - Yesterday was a rest day and my legs are sore from Tuesday lower workout!
    08/07: 131.8 lbs - Made sure to stay on track with accurate food logging. Internet technician and project manager for our new roof were in our home until 7pm so I didn't get my normal workout in. Today will be a thrown together workout and longer run.
    08/08: 131.2 lbs - Florida heat is no joke during runs 🥵 Just need to make sure I keep going down and not fluctuate up!
    08/09: 132 lbs - Fluctuated up! I can definitely say it was dinner.

    08/05 - 65.8kg - Didn't meet eating goals, but did get a lot of work done.

    08/07 - 66.6kg - Whoops, looks like it got stuck. Worked out outside early in the morning; it made the whole day a thousand times better.
    08/08 - 66.6kg - Not quite sure why it's so high, maybe water retention? Continuing to avoid snacking.

    ROUND 122

    I’m a 5’ 8”, 45 yo Mom of 2 young ones. The lockdown had me squeaking toward 200, so I knew I had to start taking better care of myself!

    Original SW: 196.2 lb (6/11/20)
    GOAL Weight: 165 lb
    Total weight loss to date: 12.7 lb

    R121: -3.1 lb✔️

    Round 122 SW: 183.5     (on 8/04/20)

    8/05 – 183.9– This is not surprising as I just experienced a huge plunge in my weight, so I expect I am rebalancing now. Stationary bike and crunches today!
    8/06 – 183.7 – Great weigh-in day for this week! More cardio on the schedule today
    8/07 – 184.0 – Well, TOM arrived yesterday, along with its bloating and cramping, so I skipped cardio. It’s back on the schedule today
    8/08 – 183.5 – Cardio has definitely helped, and some of my water retention has released – excellent!
    8/09 – 183.0 - Last day of our Staycation today, then it’s back to work and home schooling tomorrow.

    Male: 63
    6’-2”
    OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016)
    OGW: 199 (just to say I did)

    Goal this round: To lower my ten-day average from previous ten-day average.

    Historical Averages:
    R 94: 210.7 (20191108 = date of the last day of the round)
    R 95: 210.3
    R 96: 210.5
    R 97: 211.3 (20191208)
    R 98: 212.7

    R 100: 215.0* (ghost vaycay entries) (20200107)
    R 101: 216.0* (some ghost vaycay entries)
    R 102: 212.6
    R 103: 211.9 (20200206)
    R 104: 210.9
    R 105: 212.5

    R 119: 212.4
    R 120: 211.5
    R 121: 207.9 (20200804)

    I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

    Round 122
    Month/Day: Weight / Comment

    08/05: 205.8 / It’s great to kick off a new round. This morning’s weigh-in ties my low for the year 2020. I got below this in 2019 before the holiday season kicked in. All I can say is, it will be a fight from here on if I want to touch 199 this year. Challenge starting tonight! A good friend invited me fishing this evening, followed by a late dinner at one of our favorite greasy spoons. (not sure if all our international friends know what a “greasy spoon” is. Ha! Is it a global term?) Maybe I will set a mini goal of avoiding the French Fries. (chips, crisps)
    08/06: 208 / …yesterday was a glorious festival of poor decisions with a double dash of salt.
    08/07: 208 / Calories yesterday were on budget, but macros were not. My diet yesterday included a couple pieces of candy, a piece of blueberry coffee cake that DW made, a couple drinx and a bag of VERY salty popcorn at the outdoor concert in our town last night.
    08/08: 208.2 / I have been naughty.
    08/09: 208.4 / pizza

    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.

    8/7 116.5 I ordered a small batch ice cream freezer last night. It makes 1 pint. I have been desiring ice cream this summer but keto ice creams are outrageously priced and I haven’t seen one that everyone loves. Besides, our regular ice cream freezer makes 6 quarts-way too much for 2 people!

    Bumped back up a bit. Probably because I did a long run yesterday and had take-out which is always higher sodium. Weight loss this month has felt particularly slow though.
