Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 126

dawnbgethealthy · September 2020

Hi. I'm Dawn in SE BC Canada
60 years old today
MFP start weight Oct 28.18 - 191

This will be my 32nd round of the 10 day challenge. I started at round 95
Round 1 EW - 158.4
Round 31 EW 142.9

09/14 - 142.7 - A few more days before I go away on holiday - I might be a nerd and take my scale with me.
09/15 - 142.4
09/16 - 142.3 - I do plan to be a bit indulgent over my birthday vacation, but not go crazy. If I do gain a little I will be okay with that. Getting closer to my 50 pound loss now.
09/17 - 141.7 - Good to see this number before heading out on vacay this morning.
09/18 - 142.3 - Happy with this number. Yes, I brought my scale with me

09/19 - 141.6 - Less stress on vacation, more movement.
09/20 - 141.0 - I hit my 50 pound loss today, great birthday present : - ) I am okay if I fluctuate from here, perfect timing (and of course hard work) to hit that number today. I go from obese to just overweight today : - )
09/21 - 142.3 - I kind of expect it to go up more, still away on holiday. That was a real gift getting the good number on my birthday. I am feeling lean-ish and doing lots of hiking, but no kitchen so food choices will catch up with me. Thank you for the birthday wishes!! : - )

Round 126
Excited for My Round 4!

Jillian Age 34 and 5'1"

HSW: 179.8
CSW: 169.2
GW: 130
UGW: 116
Mini GW: 158 will get me out of the obesity category and into the overweight category according to the BMI.

RGW: 166

Round 123 (1): 179.8 to 176.4 (-3.4)
Round 124 (2): 176.4 to 170 (-6.4)
Round 125 (3): 170.0 to 169.2 (-0.8)

🏃 09/14: 167.8 Great start! I started my Switch Boxing game last night, and it was fun. Now, I can switch between the different games to keep me happy about getting up to move! I ate an egg and spam sandwich which was pretty tasty. Then, I had spaghetti for dinner which is always very forgiving to me. I forgot how good it is for me to eat when trying to lose weight despite the carbs.
🏃 09/15: 168.8 Some part of me knew yesterdays number wouldn't stick. I ate a can of raviolis and vegetable beef soup for lunch and dinner respectively. I snacked on Harvest Snap peas, which are really yummy. I stayed within my calorie goal and played Just Dance on my Switch. Today is Ring Fit Adventure Day! I may tweak my calorie goal to lower it just a little bit.
🏃 09/16: 168.2 I'm on a rollar coaster of fluctuations this week. I'm okay with this as long as I don't see the 170s anymore! I'm sure I'll make it down, even if it's slower than I'd like. I'm truly in no real rush, but it's tough to remind the competitive part of my brain about that. I didn't play Ring Fit Adventure yesterday, but I'll fit it in today.
🏃 09/17: 168.6
🏃 09/18: 169.4 This is the day when I became just a little frustrated and decided to fast just a little. I knew any benefits from this might be shortlived, but I wanted to give it a try anyway.
🏃 09/19: 166.2 I was happy to finally see this, but was doubtful if it would stick around.
🏃 09/20: 166.6 I had a BBQ with family yesterday, and managed to avoid overeating, so I'm happy about that. I have not been excercising much lately, though. I am hoping to get back to it this week. Today, I ate bacon, eggs and hashbrowns for breakfast. Then, I had pork chops, green beans, and macaroni and cheese for dinner. I haven't calorie counted since the 17th, so I will resume logging tomorrow.
🏃 09/21: 165.8 Hooray! I wish I could have my husband cook me breakfast and dinner everyday because that worked out really well! 😂😂😂 The myfitnesspal app congratulated me on losing 14 pounds so far! It turns out it's true! 179.8-165.8=14!

Previous days

09/14 115.2 We did a soccer workout this morning with a lower intensity. That worked well because my body just wasn’t feeling quite right. I feel really sleepy today for some reason even though I feel like I slept okay.
Typical day food wise, I’ve been enjoying my switch in the morning by having eggs with thin sliced cheddar on Dave’s Killer Multi grain toast and then the other slice I add peanut butter and a drizzle of honey and have a side of fruit. Then, for my snack I’ll have fruit with yogurt and granola. Dinner tonight will be leftover roasted cabbage with CSA salad greens and whatever else I decide to add to it…I’m thinking I’ll eat more cantaloupe and yogurt for dessert because we are getting more melons in our share today!

09/15 114.0 Woo, back down to 114 😊. I’m happy I’ve been seeing this number more over the past month. It makes me know it’s more of my real weight now and not a low fluctuation. I went for a nice walk with my father in law this morning, and as we were heading back we spotted my husband walking back as well. I decided to extend my walk and my husband joined me on the extension, so it was a nice morning of walking a little less than 6 miles. The slightly cooler temps in our apartment are making it easier to sleep better, and I’m so happy about that. Sleep is so vital for me because if I don’t sleep well, I’m useless for the day when it comes to getting much done with work and whatever else. Food is looking pretty good for today, toast with egg and cheese for breakfast, roast pork with mashed potatoes for dinner with carrots and salad. I’m also excited to try the plums for my snack today that we got from our CSA yesterday!

09/16 114.0 We did a great soccer workout this morning! I’m excited today to go to the city and get my flu shot (not really excited for the shot, but it’s an excuse for all of my colleagues to meet outside and then eat lunch in the bright sun after we all get poked) I haven’t seen them in person since March, so it will be nice to have a real conversation and not on Skype or Zoom! I have a peanut butter sandwich on Dave’s Killer Multigrain bread packed and a fruit salad (apple, nectarine, and black berries) with yogurt for dessert 😊. Dinner will be roasted chicken drum sticks with salad and I will save room for lemon polenta cake that was given to us last night as part of the dinner train. Have a wonderful day everyone!

09/17 114.2 Went for a nice walk this morning and enjoyed the 60 degree weather. We plan on heading to NH tomorrow night to get away for a couple nights, and I’m so happy about that! Yesterday’s food went well and I stayed the course, except for adding roasted radishes and beets to dinner last night. This summer I realized that I love roasted radishes! They are so good roasted and get very mild tasting 😊. On the menu tonight for dinner is spinach ravioli with sauteed spigariello (also know as broccoli leaf), tomatoes, and scallions. The ravioli are good because they calories aren’t the worst for something quick. The entire package of 6 large ravioli are 410 calories. So my dinner should only clock in at 600ish calories with the sides. Busy day with work and just now getting around to posting! Have a good rest of your day!

09/18 114.2 We did a solid soccer workout this morning! It felt so good and I had lots of energy for it. I think I ate more than usual yesterday and I wonder if that helped my workout this morning. It makes me contemplate a much slower loss and only give myself a 100 calorie deficit instead of a 200-250 one during the week (on the weekend I give myself only a 75 calorie deficit). I’ll have to experiment and see how I feel. It could also be where I’m at in my cycle and it’s during the time where I’m supposed to have more energy for higher intensity workouts. So, who knows? What I do know is that I lost a pound of water weight during my workout today because I was 113.2 post workout. I weight myself after just to see how much I need to hydrate afterwards.
This afternoon we are off to NH, so I probably won’t be posting on Saturday or Sunday. We plan on going for a drive to go through some towns we’ve never been to and also waving to the Canadian border because I’ve never been up that far by car. (We went to Jasper, Canada by plane about 4 or 5 years ago...my goodness was that place SPECTACULARLY BEAUTIFUL! Oh how I miss it there!)
Well, have a good weekend everyone!

09/19 away
09/20 away
09/21 117.6 Ugh, salty foods all weekend... almost didn't want to weigh or post the 3.6 gain of water weight. On the bright side, we went for a gorgeous drive Saturday and I waved to Canada multiple times from New Hampshire and Vermont. We went for a chilly 4 mile walk this morning. I don’t think I’m ready for the chilly weather yet but just have to accept it’s here. Looking forward to eating some healthier food today. I plan on making a soup to use up some greens that didn’t get eaten from the CSA. I think I’ll put some beans and scallions in it too! Typing this out reminds me that I need to go soak some cannellini beans for the soup!

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 126
Month/Day: Weight / Comment

09/14: 209.4 / This is the reading with which I started the last round. Déjà vu? Let’s hope not. Back at it for another round.

09/15: 208.0 / Ate reasonably well yesterday and had a nice evening walk with DW. I need to examine each day, or else…

09/16: 207.2 / Have a good Wednesday everyone! DW is watching DGS today, so I had a couple small pancakes for breakfast. (I benefit from the leavings of the prince. I had to hurry because he was shoveling them in! Ha!) I will need to make some other kind of sacrifice to pay for the pancakes.

09/17: 208.2 / Pancakes were not the only poor decision yesterday. And I had meetings all day yesterday and into the evening. Not a lot of movement. Actually, I am happy with this small gain.

09/18: 208.4 / Going to try today to use my mouth more as a “word hole” and less as a “pie hole.” Hard to do as an introvert.

09/19: 211.4
09/20: 212.2
09/21: 209.8 / OK, this past weekend was a combination Pumpkin Festival (Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Chili, Brats, BBQ,etc.) and 45th High School class reunion (gatherings and meals with old friends.) So I will forgive myself, but on the other hand I want to guard against what typically happens this time of year. Seems like Fall going into Winter is always packed with temptation.

As you can see by my last few days I can add or lose three pounds in one day. That is why I don’t get overwrought if the reading is high, nor do I get too ecstatic if the reading is low. Keeping an eye on the big picture.

Hello Again,

I'm Harry and71 years young. We live in NE Texas
I was here before and did well but as happens too often I fell away from the diet and got back to old habits. I am back again to get my weight and health back to where it should be. You are only down when you refuse to get back up. I am back up again. Looking forward to the days ahead.

Start Date: 9/12/20
Starting Weight: 288
Goal Weight: 228 (-60 lbs)

09/14 285
09/15 285
09/16 281
09/17 280
09/18 280

09/19 279 (-9) End of my first week and down 9 lbs. Pretty typical for my first week of keto dieting. Already I can feel the knees and hands appreciating the reduced bloating of water retention. If all goes well I am expecting to see an average loss of 2 – 2.5 lbs per week.

09/20 – 280 (+1) Stayed within my calorie goal but must be holding some fluid again.

09/21 – 280 (0) No change today. Disappointing as I stuck to the plan and expected to see some improvement but its just not in the cards right now. I do rely on my weekly progress which is usually on target so not getting discouraged at all.

OK Ready to try again
I got way off track last round, Trying not to be an emotional eater, I found myself craving a drink at the end of the day. I have never been much of a drinker. I could count on my fingers how many drinks I have in a year, so this was alarming. So I had a snack instead and within a couple of days all my old bad eating habits were back. I don't have a solution right now - but I have to keep trying. I have special needs adults in my family who depend on me to be there for them 24/7. I need my health.

RSW216.6

Day/Weight/Comment
09/14 215.6 another tough day - if DS2 does not get his act together by Friday -take his meds, have a shower etc doctor will 'form" him. I am still hoping it won't come to that - but also very scared that it will.
09/15 214.6
09/16 213.8 Happy with how fast I am regaining lost ground - (re-losing gained ground?) Taking the doggo on extra walks to help manage the stress.
09/17 213.4 not enough sleep last night - will have to work extra hard on the impulse control today.
09/18 213.0 Happy with this A lot is riding on the doctors decision today. DS has not improved, but he has not gotten any worse - hoping that will be enough to keep him at home.
09/19 212.6 Thanks for all the hugs. DS is still at home, very grateful for that - will be reassessed on Monday
09/20 212.4 Today would have been my Mum's 94th birthday - still working on trying to live up to her example
09/21 DNW overslept - fortunately I can work from home this morning and then head in to the office at noon

Day/Weight/Walking distance/Comment:

9/14 167.2 Walked 3.01 Rough trail walk yesterday. Had to do a little rock climbing, nothing too hard but strenuous workout. No clue why my weight is up again today. I have been watching my calories and sodium. Maybe retaining water from tough workouts?

9/15 167.0 Walked 3.05 East breezy walk last night. You guys I love my bf but he makes the weirdest food combinations. Air fried chicken breast - with mushroom pho noodle bowl. He's so proud of himself because he checked the calories and they were both good. Of course not a veggie in sight but he's thinking about my food needs and I appreciate that so much. The sun is shining today, no problem getting a walk in today!

9/16 165.9 Walked 5.08 Beautiful weather, trail close to the house. I guess that bump was water weight as it's gone now.

9/17 166.2 Walked 2.03 Short walk, didn't have a lot of time. Why do I eat Asian food? The calories can be low (if you watch the sauces) and there are a lot of veggies, but the sodium. Oh well. Weather is beautiful again, trying to think of somewhere different to go tonight.

9/18 166.4 Hiked 2.02 I didn't have enough time to do more and I was trying a new part of a trail I do occasionally. I found out it's mostly for bikes, apparently. I almost got ran over so I didn't mind cutting it short. The west side of the road is for hikers and the east side is for mountain bikes, as the biker explained. One very nicely, the other guy was a jerk. If there are no signs, and the website doesn't say anything how are people supposed to know this unwritten rule. Someone almost runs me down and then yells at me. Oh well. Luckily the opinion of a 24 year old mountain biker isn't an important one to me. Happy Friday!!!

9/19 165.8 Hiked 4.03 Had a doc appt and walked after. Everything went well there, my BP was lower than it had been and I got my flu shot.

9/20 164.9 Hiked 1.08 Took the baby with me on a hike in the woods. I cannot recommend strongly enough taking a three year old on a hike in the woods. We walk a little bit in and she says this isn't scary, no tigers, no dinos. We're playing hide-n-seek here. Where is she???

9/21 164.8 Walked 0 Took yesterday off from walking. I had a good day. Went to the farmer's market with the baby and then we went to my BF's house where he was playing with her. Seriously is there anything cuter than that? Him dancing with her to Paw Patrol music about stole my heart. I'm so glad he quit that job that had him travel so much.

09/21 - 153.4 - There's the drop! I won't lie, I didn't expect to drop down this low so quickly. Especially since I overate and needed to walk/jog in place during commercials and halftime to meet my step goal (7250) and thus get back in the green. It wasn't terrible food, but definitely not good. No veggies ): More water fore sure, which is likely why the water weight dropped so much so quick. Managed 16.5hr fast. Dinner was early last night so if I make it to 1130, it'll be a 17-17.5h fast (I'm estimating time last night, but I know we left the house after dinner at 7, so not my usual 730 finish time) Didn't get my walk in yesterday and, depending on rain, I'm not sure I'll get one in today. Going to try to sneak it in between rain! Its chilly out so I don't mind waiting until the sun warms things up a bit more. Time to stay hyper-focused to meet my goal -- I can tell in the mirror and by the heavy feeling, I have more bloat to drop. If I can keep on track, I think I can manage goal, or at least close to it!

Previous Day's Comments

09/14 - This is what lactose and upset stomach looks like on me. I ordered soy but they gave me milk. Didn't know until late last night and by then taking my lactose pills didn't do much as it was too long after eating. Woke up with sharp pain in my belly. Don't feel bloated but do feel very heavy in general and a tad bit nauseous. Flushing with water and trying to fast longer today to overcome this and hope my nausea goes away. Glad this is the start of a round so I have plenty of time to bounce back
09/15 - Oh so thankful!!! I'm below my ending weight and my lactose bump is gone! I expected it to take 2 days at least so I'm super duper happy my work paid off yesterday. The best part is that yesterday I wasn't that good, just good enough to not feel bad about my day. Goes to show you don't have to be perfect, you just have to be better than before. I might just keep that in mind going forward. The only person I'm competing against is myself and every day I just have to be better than I was the day before.
09/16 - Some more bloat drop. I feel so might lighter and my belly is much flatter today. Its not the most debloated I could get, but the closest I'll get while eating as a family (dinner's veggies were grilled in melted butter- not the healthiest but oh so delicious). I'm willing to make those sacrifices, though, because I know its possible to still feel good without being absolutely perfect and still be able to enjoy a family dinner. Water was good yesterday. Didn't get a walk in with work but aiming for one this morning once it lightens up a bit. So weird to be awake when its so dark now that days are shorter and shorter. Makes getting my walk in harder unless I'm willing to walk in the dark either in the morning or in the evening. Need to stick to my guns about it and get it done
09/17 - I'll take any drop I can get. I'm up earlier than normal by an hour since I have to drive into work today so I'm really surprised at this. No workout unless I can squeeze it in somehow tonight. Not sure how training will be so not sure if I'll hit step goal, especially if its all classroom stuff.
09/18 - And a whoosh. I expect this to bounce up since I was dehydrated this morning though not sure how. My BF% went up almost 3% today so it makes me wonder. It usually bounces around quite a bit so I know its not super accurate, but this was a huge bounce. I hit my water goal and I believe went a bit over. Making sure I make water goal today. Got my 16hr fast (maybe a little longer as I always forget to check what time it is when I finish dinner but I know it is about 730-ish every night). Not sure if dinner helped me hit my calorie goal as lunch was a little on the low side. No way to track it, unfortunately, except very very estimated guesses. Hit my step goal and almost reached 10k steps despite being in training. Every break I got up to go outside and pace a bit for movement. (Plus outside I could take my mask off - Anxiety from a traumatic event causes me to go into full on panic mode when I wear one. Like hyperventilating, accidentally attacking people trying to help me because I feel like I'm being attacked... Already happened once in the store at the beginning of all this, don't want a repeat. Been looking for a visor or something that doesn't touch my face/neck that is acceptable but no luck so far. A constant battle against my brain when I have to go out ): I just try to avoid it at all costs)
09/19 - DNP
09/20 - I weighed yesterday but have no recollection what it was as I didn't get to record it in my Libra app. Today is a combination of dehydration and salt. I was in the sun all day working hard with very little access to water. I think I got 2 water bottles in (16oz each), only half my minimum goal! Got plenty of steps, though - just shy of 12k! Didn't get to fast like I wanted as I knew lunch was not guaranteed and I'd be physically working in the sun. Ended up having a small late fast food lunch, though. No other option available ): Dinner was a bit salty and although I didn't have much to eat, paired with water retention from dehydration, it compounded. I'll be ok. Today should be quieter so I can focus on my water and food better while watching my football (: hopefully rehydration today will drop me back down quickly. Definitely fasting 16hr, if not more, to get back to normal. Once I finish my water bottle (32oz) I'll get dressed to take the pup on a morning walk. I can see a beautiful sunrise through my curtains -- how refreshing to walk and admire beautiful Mother Nature in the morning light!

Round 126 Goal = Under 169 lbs

Day, Weight, Comment

09/14: 170.6 (down 1.0 lb from yesterday) Another great running day yesterday, yay for fall! Calories were a little low yesterday, I think caused a headache and bit of nausea around bed time. Need to be better today with making sure I am eating enough of the right things to fuel my body properly.

09/15: 170.1 (down .5 lb from yesterday) Yesterday was my daughter's 1st day of high school (fully remote learning), so we ordered in pizza (her favorite) for dinner. I weighed mine on the food scale and had 2 slices with a salad and stayed in a deficit. Success! Husband is home for dinner tonight, so I am cooking family meal this evening and then we are having friends over to social distance outside so today will not be AF. I've pre-logged 3 drinks, but hopefully plan on just having 2. Going for a run on my lunch hour, which will be much needed with the extra calories planned for today. Will still be in a deficit, just on the higher end of my calories, so I might see a bump up on the scale in the next 1-2 days, but I am okay with that. Super close to being under 170!

09/16: 169.2 (down .9 from yesterday) Under 170!!! Now need this to stick and then keep on dropping:)Yesterday was a good day....went on a run with my husband, made a yummy family dinner, & then enjoyed drinks with friends (while social distancing). Downside of drinking last night, woke up super, crazy hungry which normally does not happen when I am fasting. Also due to drinking last night, my fast started later than normal, so not sure I will get the full 16 hours today, but will at least go for 14 hours. Will be drinking lots & lots of water this morning.

09/17: 172.4 (up 3.2 lbs from yesterday) No, I did not gain 3.2 lbs in 24 hours! Woke up yesterday with an very bad allergic reaction, arms covered in hives, so had to go on a quick round of steroids. When I take these I immediately bounce up around 5 lbs if not more. Not a real gain and will drop right back down and soon as I finish the medication. So I knew this was coming this morning. It's annoying but not discouraging, will keep on doing what I've been doing.

09/18: 172.2 (down .2 from yesterday) Still dealing with allergic reaction and steroids causing elevated weight

09/19: 172.4 (up .2 from yesterday) A couple more days left on steroids, so won't be seeing the scale drop until then. Gorgeous fall day here, was 58 degrees on my run today! Perfect running weather

09/20: 172.4 (no change from yesterday). Last day of steroids, hoping to see a drop on the scale tomorrow! On plan today another run in great weather and husband is home today, so cooking family meal tonight.

09/21: 172.4 (no change from yesterday) Good day yesterday, 20 hour fast, gorgeous day, cool fall temps on my run, delicious family dinner while still on the low end of my calories, and alcohol free.

9/14 159.8 - Got a serious workout in this morning. It was a pilates fusion class.
9/15 160.4 Water retention from muscle soreness for sure. I have been eating around 1600 calories.
9/16...161.4 so strange 😕 (or maybe not)
9/17 160.4 yesterday (wed) was a reformer pilates day. I'm a little sore in my core. I finally got a good night's sleep. It seems like it takes 1-1/2 weeks without alcohol to get back to my natural, deep slumbers. Feeling rejuvinated!
9/18 160.4
9/19 159.0 Yay!
9/20 159.4
9/21 158.8 i didn't eat healthy over the weekend but I tracked everything and didn't go overboard. I caught up on sleep and I also stayed alcohol free -- always a good thing!

I am back again. Really looking to see movement on the scale this round.

Rnd 124 SW - 169 EW - 164.3 (-4.7)
Rnd 125 SW -164.3 EW - 164.3 (0)

09/14 - 166.8

09/15 - 169.2 Well that is definitely not the movement I was hoping for. This is the result of eating out the last couple of days. Beyond my control, but it is what it is. Up almost 5 pounds in 2 days, wow! I needed a nice weekend off though. Back on track today and really hoping to get below 164 this round.

09/16 - 168.5 going back down I guess. Did well yesterday, so hoping to have a bigger drop tomorrow.

09/17 - 168.5 I have no words. My stomach was upset this morning, so maybe that's the reason. All I can do is continue trying. Eventually it will have to come back down. I have not been giving 100%, but I have been trying.

09/18 - 167.0 had a good day yesterday. My youngest turns 12 today and we have a couple of fun activities planned this weekend. Pretty much everything is still closed down in my state, so we are going to go up to the mountains and take the Jeep four wheeling. Spaghetti for dinner tonight (her favorite), so I will keep calories low the rest of the day. I have decided to go back home and work part time from home, and work the rest at the office. Probably not the best idea for my weight or metal stability, but it is what my kids need me to do. I am just lucky that I have a job that I can do that with. Since my kids will not be going back to actual school until at least January this is the only option we have. I only have 2 school age children left at home and leaving them there to do it on their own is turning out not to be working.

09/19 - 166.1

09/20 - 167.0

09/21 -168.5 UUUGGGHHHH!!! Watched the Cowboys game yesterday and just relaxed for the most part. Still sticking with it no matter what!

Day/Weight/Calories Previous Day/Snack Status/Comment

9/14 - 181.6 - 1596 - snack late in lieu of dinner - pear, Eng muffin w/cheese
Weird eating day yesterday as DH wanted pizza (veggie) for lunch. I kept my calories reasonable, but ate later than planned (wasnt hungry at supper time, but I was later). Probably same today with leftover pizza, but I’m planning my day better. @quiltingjaine, I’m reading Life in the Fasting Lane and am thinking of trying it. Actually no snacks between dinner (we eat early) and breakfast pretty much does it, I think. We shall see. Off for a walk.

9/15 - 182.8 - 1756 - snack 🍨
Today’s the day. Cutting refined carbs as much as possible, starting with a cheese omelette for breakfast instead of cereal. I had ice cream last night and savored it as my last indulgence until I drop at least 20 pounds. I’m making salmon salad for lunch — yummy with broccoli slaw. If I fill up on protein, fat, and veggies 🧀🥚🍳🥦🥕🥒🥬, I shouldn’t crave snacks later. This time I mean it. I feel ready, if that makes any sense. Also, I refinished a dresser over the weekend — got it cheap, banged up. Here it is now.

9/16 - 181.4 - 1086 - no snacks ⭐️
I had a good day yesterday. Now to rinse and repeat!

9/17 - 181 - 1278 - no snacks ⭐️
Two days in a row without snacking. Yay! I was really hungry last night watching a movie, but I held out. I know partly that’s trained hunger that will pass eventually. Onward!

9/18 - 181 - 1723 - snack muesli & almond milk
A minor slip. A friend in coming for late breakfast in the garden, and wanted a Panera Bread bear claw. DH wanted an Asiago bagel. I made the Panera run and got Greek yogurt with mixed berries For myself. Is my halo all nice and sparkly or what?

9/19 - 182 - 1546 - no snacks, but late dinner because other meals were late.
Delayed reaction from Thursday, I’m sure. Beautiful weather here — sunny and 60s. I’m going to relocate some plants, the go for a long walk along the river.

9/20 - 181.4 - 1585 - snack small 🍨
Not too bad yesterday, considering I was really down. I wanted to eat my way through, but didn’t, other than 1 oatmeal raisin cookie (77 cal) and a half cup of ice cream. DH made a pot of fabulous 15-bean soup for dinner and to freeze. I don’t really like bean soup, but this is delicious! Anyway, today I’m trying to busy my way out of depression. Have a good Sunday, all.

9/21 - 181.2 - 1668 - ugh, triscuits
Okie dokie. Not spectacular, but not up either. Two more days on the round, so maybe I can still get below 181. That would be fun. It’s supposed to be in the 70s here all week, so I’ll be planting bulbs and spending as much time outdoors as possible. Have a great week, all!

@Deviette I think the problem people have with weekends is the lack of routine they follow during the work week. It’s time to relax, enjoy and entertain. I had a problem when I retired with too much time on my hands, hence my gradual gain to almost 200#!

9/15-162-Went to a quilt class, no time for exercise....came home, started dinner and joined quilt guild on zoom. Busy.
9/16-Garden club mtg outdoors at park, sewed and walked 2 miles before dinner. Chips & guac, not a good idea. At least I didn’t drink beer with them. Bike ride this morning.
9/17-163-Popcorn late in the afternoon; I’ve got to stop that.No bike ride yesterday, but I sure got a lot of sewing done in my biking clothes😂. Lots of stuff to do today, but plan to get the bike ride in.
9/18-162-Walked 3 miles. The air is finally better and the days are getting cooler!
9/21-DNW-Our boys came to visit for the weekend, lots of food and fun. Going to help garden club work on the downtown pots to keep them pretty.

My problem with weekends is no structure/routine as well. If I'm able to stay busy, it is easy for me to forget until I begin to feel nauseous or faint (especially I'm doing something physical - faintness can come fast). Otherwise, I don't necessarily feel I go over calories unless there's some event, but, instead, I lack movement. Yesterday was mostly sitting watching football from noon to 1030pm! Luckily my calories were high which forced me to get up during commercials and halftime to move and reach step goals, but usually I'm not good at tracking on weekends due to time and computer access.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/14 202.1 I didn’t realize that losing the time for my evening walk would be such a large loss to my weight loss goals but it is. That’s the time can push myself to peak and it’s gone. I barely got to peak this week without it. No excuses. Eating healthy but finding time to workout is a struggle. I got 8 minutes in early this morning of aerobics.
09/15 201.1 Yesterday 11331 steps calories 1413 calories lunch walk and nothing else.
09/16 200.0 Yesterday 15604 steps 1249 calories 8 minute am aerobics, lunch walk, 10 minute evening walk. So close! so close! So close!
09/17 198.7 mike drop! Now to keep the trend going…I went out to eat last night, and ate 50% of my plate. Clam strip and fries. Not to many I filled up easily.
09/18 199.5 still holding on 15058 steps yesterday and 1340 in calories. Have you ever noticed that stress makes you heart race and burn more calories. I do not recommend it though?
09/19 199.8 stayed under 200 but creeping upwards. I am seeing a significant difference in my body but it come with some flabbiness. I need a routine for strength training. With two 3 year old time management is difficult.
09/20 200.8 15518 steps 1725 calories in. not going crazy about it. Just going to keep working hard. 45 minute walk 8 minute zumba routine.
09/21 199.7 11144 steps 1288 in calories Yesterday two 15 minute aerobic session. Just enough to keep me going. Not enough veggies yesterday.

@CamandJarvis Even after gaining, losing, re-losing and getting below my lowest ever dreamed of weight, on occasion I just need some crunch late in the evening. Last night I had some bacon and cheese. Not crunchy but sooo satisfying!

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.

*********
9/14 116.0 Life is good. It has occurred to me that yesterday’s lower weight was probably brought to me by sleeping until 10 rather than 6 or 6:30.
9/15 116.0
9/16 116.0
9/17 116.0 Had Great Greek salad yesterday with steak, side of melitzanosalada and a whole pita. I have added longer periods of fasting so had about 17 hours yesterday band will have at least 19 today.
9/18 117.0 Well, that’s the carb bounce from 2 days ago and there may be more tomorrow. I fasted 22 hours, from 4PM 9/16 to 2PM 9/17 and had a 2.5 hour eating window before starting my IF period.
9/19 118.0 Went to PF yesterday for the first time since before COVID. Trying to do things that are similar to what I do at physical therapy so I have a routine when those sessions are over. My thighs really feel the pain today! No TMI x 2 days. And I haven’t made BPC in almost a week!
9/20 117.0 Smoke was terrible in the morning. No gym, my inner thighs were so sore I could hardly walk but it was a GOOD SORE! Shopping yesterday so lots of steps overall.
9/21 116.0 FINALLY! My legs aren’t killing me. Back to the gym this morning. Lesson learned-I hope!!

Day/Weight/Comment
09/13 …..212.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
09/14 …..211.6 ….. Better. I wasn’t perfect yesterday but my carbs were on the lower side and it paid off. Good luck everyone this round!

09/15 …..211.6 ….. I traveled today. I wonder what tomorrow may bring……

09/16 …..211.3 ….. Wonderful news after travel! When I am super low carb, even a small regular meal can put 3-5 pounds on me after travel so I was quite shocked to see a loss. Its very nice, but I know that “regular meals” do not help my diabetes. Only the lower carb ones so I’ve got to eventually go back to finding a balance. I will have to back out slowly (while backing back IN to low carb) to try to avoid those huge sugar drops. I’m formulating my plan. Horrid night last night. I didn’t get to sleep until after 8:00 this morning. My personal and business stresses and situations really got to me last night but I avoided overdoing the bad snacks so I am proud of myself!

09/17 …..210.8 ….. Yay! I didn’t drink enough water yesterday but peed a lot. Goodbye bloat!

09/18 …..210.6 ….. Yay. Two pounds down since the start of the challenge! Hopefully, I can keep on the right side of the tracks.

09/19 …..211.2 ….. Humph…..Sodium.

09/20 …..210.8 ….. And back down it goes. I will try to watch the sodium today and make even better choices. No glucose drops so far so I am happy!

09/21 …..211.0 ….. A wee bit up. Not too bad though because last night was movie night with my son which included pizza. I kept the quantity low and eliminated all snacks later to make up for it.

09/22 …..xxxxx …..

09/23 …..xxxxx …..
