Aim is to lower Blood Glucose (pre-diabetic)
Goal lose 3 lbs

Sept 25: W 214.
repeat yesterday: doing a workout, lots of water, going to work on awareness of stress feelings. No late night snacks!!

Sept 26: W 214.
Was tired, went to bed 1 hr earlier than normal. Had a snack (unplanned before bed).

Sept 27: W 214.
Realise last night's snack was because I was sore and tired. Still have sore knees and fatigue today, warm epsom salt bath tonight. No workout today. Stuck to my eating window (Yay),see how it goes. Reached my coffee limit at noon, herbal tea is on the menu. Stayed on plan !! Blood Glucose not where I expected.

Original start weight: 178 lbs (Oct. 10, 2019)
Ultimate goal 145 lbs.
Goal by Daughter Wedding April 8: 155lbs

Goal this round: 163.6lbs or less

End of round 126 9/23= 164.8 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
9/24 162.2 lbs fasted 18 hours, which I account for much of the loss, also dehydration because I was away from home thus no food and limited water. 10,480 steps Tomorrow could be bad, going shopping and then a wine walk in the evening with friends.

9/25 164.8 lbs fasted 16 hours I expected an increase due the huge decrease the day before and also the wine walk was great fun. I had not been to that town in a long time and they have alot of new great small business and it was fun to shop and see what was out. The snacks were two good.

9/26 165.6 lbs Weighed with wet hair, fasted 16 hours, walked two miles outside, over 15,000 steps. But calories were about 1400 and I am sure some gain is still from the fun the night before.

9/27. 164.2 lbs. quilted so no exercise. Over on calories. I can do better.

9/28 164.2 lbs Under 1100 calories. It was raining and icky so continued to work on some quilted hotpads for Christmas gifts not much exercise and my back dislikes all the standing. This round is halfway done, I got to get a move on.

CW: 225
GW: 200 by 2021

Starting weight for this round: 225lb
Goal weight for this round: 223 lb

Food/Activity goals for this week:
Continue 16:8 Intermittent Fasting
Continue to log fasting blood glucose
Complete Week 2 of C25K and start Week 3.
Continue to plug away at my Obé "Harder AF" 28 day challenge.

9/24: 225lbs, FBG 99:
9/25: 223.6, FBG 115
9/26: 224.2, FBG 97.
9/27: 224.2. FBG 104
9/28: 222.4 FBG 103. I tell you what. I walked 35 minutes yesterday and that was all I had in me. I'm happy to see the bump down in the weight and fingers crossed it sticks. I'd like to see my blood glucose go down again, but this is something I will just have to keep monitoring as my weight decreases and cardiovascular health increases. I once again failed to strength train, and I really need to. This is a new week, and I'm going to do better.

@SheilaBoneham Your dinner sounds delicious. With the exception of the green pea fusili, I could easily make that keto/LCHF. I make Alfredo all the time!

@quiltingjaine It was! And I like the green pea fusili and other non-grain pastas. Better than wheat! 🙂

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

9/24/20 - 182.6 - ~2100!!! - Just. Too. Much. Food.
My creativity group came over for what may be our last in-person meeting before it’s too cold outside, and we made it a meal — teriyaki chicken, rice, salad, and chocolate chip s’mores cookie cake. Yikes! I didn’t eat big amounts, but lots of calories and the chicken was very salty. But it was lovely to be together, so all good, and I’m back on track today.

9/25/20 - 182.6 - ~2000!!! - don’t ask about snacks 😡
I thought I’d be back on track yesterday, but for whatever messed up reason, I ate everything in sight all evening. I think I need to turn off the news! Anyway, I had turkey sausages for breakfast, and we’re getting smoked chicken for dinner to support a fundraiser for a cause we support — going for protein and fat to counter all the carbs I’ve been snarfing the past two days. I do feel puffy, so I know some of this is water, but not all. I’m hoping all the p & f will make be feel more satisfied. Happy Friday, all! Enjoy this final weekend of Sept. 🍁🌻🐝🧶

9/26/20 - 182.8 - 1645 - 4 triscuits
Calories a bit high yesterday, but better, and healthy, even with my little Triscuit snack. Macros about where I want them. Day by day. I did spend an hour cleaning up my side of the garage, organizing my shelves full of garden tools, pots, references, paint and painting tools, and other miscellaneous garage things and tossing stuff I don’t need anymore. Made me feel more in control! I’m sort of working my way through the house — my closet is partly done. It’s supposed to be nice and warm today and tomorrow, so I plan so be outdoors as much as possible, and have friends coming to hang out in the garden both days, before we can’t get together. I have a writing deadline crashing down on me, so that’s first indoors, so I’ll finish closets next week. When I get every little thing organized and decluttered, I know I’ll feel better! Funny how having our surroundings in order can affect our eating, attitude, work, even play. I’m also seriously thing of taking 6 weeks away from social media for sanity and to see how much more I get done without it. I’ll stay here, though. 🙂 Way tmi, right? Have a great weekend, all!

9/27/20 - 181.8 - 1285
This is a nice surprise. We had a pretty caloric dinner last night—baked chicken with broccoli, green pea fusili, and Alfredo sauce. But it was so satisfying, I didn’t snack in the evening — yay! Leftovers tonight, so I’m planning a light lunch. It’s gorgeous out, so I’m off for a walk. Supposed to cool down and rain tomorrow. Enjoy your Sunday!

9/28/20 - 182 - 2045 😳 - 🍨
Ok, it’s Monday, a new week, a new start. Still fighting the snack monster.

@Deviette - I think you've coped really well considering the circumstances. My heart goes out to you when the dream day and how you had planned it has been turned upside down, but you and your partner have done well to discuss what it means to you and having done this I'm sure that when the actual day arrived it will be special. Looking forward to hearing about it next year ❤️

9/27/20 - 143.6 - Had a great big Rib Eye + Prawns in butter sauce last night. This was my delayed birthday meal that I couldn't have on my trip. Maybe worth the 2 lb weight gain.

44, 6' trying to maintain at 150. Have to track here for accountability. More water, more low/0 calorie snacks when starving.

9/24-27 vacation- Hiked hard every day, Lassen, Zion, completed Angel's Landing, but ate big too with no tracking. Up substantially. Back here to track
9/28 158.6 Yeah...

Goal -150 Alcohol only on weekends, exercise daily, plenty of water, no bread.

9/25-160-Yay. No walk, took the day off. Light dinner.
9/26-160-Whew! Biked 10 miles then drove round trip 5 hours to a funeral by the sea, husband wanted hamburgers on the way home. Waves wear huge and it was a beautiful day.
9/27-160-Whew, again! Made hummus yesterday.
9/28-162-BBQed ribs, sewed a lot, too hot to walk. Off to quilting class this morning.

My 54th Round

HWE - 275

RGW - 163.9

Mileage goal for 2020: 634 miles
Completed distance - 619.7 miles

Rounds 55 thru Round 106
SW 194.3 EW 158.2 DIF -36.1
Round 107-123 Skipped completely
Round 124 SW 165 EW 166.9 DIF +1.9
Round 125 SW 166.9 EW 165.2 DIF -1.7
Round 126 SW 165.2 EW 164.8 DIF -.4
Round 126 SW 164.8 EW ????

9/24 164.8 walked 3.04 Third day in a row at the same weight. I moved the scale to make sure it was level and after 3 times the weight was still 164.8. I have to keep watching the sodium and I think I'll be down in a day or two. And calories, obviously but those have been in check all week.

9/25 166.1 hiked 3.25 I can only assume it's the vigorous hike or maybe the sodium was a little high. I didn't think it was but when I looked this morning, those biscuits had 550mg each. Before I had a 2nd one I checked calories and I was fine but did not even LOOK at sodium I mean it's a buttermilk biscuit how much salt does it need.

9/26 166.0 hiked 2.51 Short hike, I had a bunch of stuff to do Friday night and needed to wrap up. So my unexpected gain was due to TOM coming a week and a half early. I'm 51 years old, this TOM can wrap up any time now.

9/27 165.9 hiked 4.11 Nice Saturday morning long hike. I should have gone 5 but I was picking up the baby and didn't have time.

9/28 165.8 walked 3.03 More than half of that was in the rain. A nice weekend. Spent more time with the baby and the BF. He says bring her over anytime. His kids are in their early 20's in college. He's ready for grandkids so I guess I'll share mine She doesn't really have a "grandfather" figure in her life. Both kids have Dads that are either out of the picture or drunk most of the time. He made sure to have toddler friendly snacks (and not just cookies although cookies did play a part). If I didn't already love him, this would push me over the top.

Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4
Goal weight for this round: I really want to see 113 this round but I’m not sure it will happen because of where I’m at in my cycle. Getting back to 114 would be nice though. Darn vacation weekend away last round.
Another goal: Embrace the scale fluctuations and not get flustered.
Previous days

09/24 115.4 We did a nice soccer workout this morning and my body also felt good from my run/walk workout yesterday. My food was pretty on point yesterday and I have good feelings for today as well. I think breakfast will be yogurt, a white peach, and granola on top. I’m not completely sure of what the rest of the day will bring. We finally got a diagnosis yesterday for my mother in law after almost 6 months of various procedures and such. The outlook is good even with it being cancer. The process will suck but there is hope for a good outcome 😊. So, we are all just feeling a little relieved right now but still processing it all. Any ways, I’m just feeling grateful for my own health right now and the fact I get to live with my in-laws and help any way possible. I’m thinking with the added stress, I’m going to focus on trying to lose but be happy if I maintain. The added stress of not losing won’t help me in any way, so if I don’t worry about it…it’s all good. Have a good day and give an extra hug to those you can!

09/25 115.0 We went for a nice walk this morning. I have a training for work and then I’m done at 12 today. Then, I’m going apple picking with my inlaws and hoping it’s quiet there. I’m excited to make a healthy apple crisp tomorrow with our apples! Have a good weekend!

09/26 115.0 Apple picking was great yesterday. The orchard was nice and quiet and we were there for about an hour. My food yesterday was on point within my log and I had enough calories in the bank for a cider donut as a snack and apple crisp for dessert. When I made the apple crisp, I weighed everything out to create a recipe in MFP. After creating a recipe, I created a food in MFP so I can just weigh my portions and enter how many grams it is resulting in a more accurate entry.
Instead of using flour in crumbly topping I used oats and oat fiber, which added a nice dose of fiber in addition to the apples. I didn’t skimp on butter but I only had to use about 4 tbs worth. I left the apple skins on as well because I didn’t feel like peeling them. It wasn’t the most decadent apple crisp around but it sure was tasty! For 277 grams it clocked in at 324calories, 10.4 g fat, 63 carbs, 14.7 g fiber, and 2.4 g protein.
For today, I plan on riding the spin bike, organizing my clothes, cleaning up my work space/office, and doing a few other things around the house. Have a happy Saturday everyone!

09/27 116.6 Salt plus edging into heaviest part of my cycle. That’s life I suppose. I know it’s not real weight because after my workout yesterday I was 113.8 lbs “dry”. We got takeout for lunch yesterday the components were healthy except for the salt. It was a bi bim bab bowl which had brown rice, carrots, shitake mushrooms, water spinach, daikon radish I think?, a bit of marinated beef, an egg and another vegetable I can’t remember. The dish was delicious but high in salt. I also has some Tom Yum soup on the side. Then for dinner I made homemade macaroni and cheese. So it was just a salty day but on the bright side my calories were in check.
We went for a nice walk this morning and then I jumped in our portable sauna contraption to help rid some of that salt and water weight! This morning’s breakfast was yogurt with fruit and some apple crisp from Friday. My snack will be more fruit that needs to be used from our CSA last week but I think I’ll put some on top of cottage cheese so I have some protein with my snack. I’m roasting a chicken with veggies for dinner tonight. So hopefully I’ll be back down tomorrow 😊.

09/28 115.8 Back down it goes. I did a killer workout this morning consisting of run a mile walk a mile for 7ish miles and the last mile was up and down hills at the soccer field. On our walk this weekend my husband was talking about how he was thinking we should get take out once a week and then I proposed we get it every other week. We talked about it and how it just messes with me so much and once a week seems like a lot for me. So, we met in the middle and decided on take-out about every 10 days. My next goal with that is to try to choose lower sodium options and eat something healthy like a salad before so I’m less starving prior. Therefore, leading me to eat less of the higher sodium meal. In reality, take-out food is not an option for us to eliminate because my husband and I are decently addicted to Thai food lol. So it’s all about balance right?

Happy Monday!

09/27 - 143.5 - Crazy thing...every time I try to "like" or "hug" another post, MFP times out on me. I'll try to catch up tomorrow.
09/28 - 142.5 - Not a surprise since I was up "releasing water" every single hour last night. I've had UT issues the past 10 days and tested negative for infection twice. Dr. had given me 5 days of antibiotics last week and I'm not sure if that helped a little or not. I've also started drinking Dandelion tea and D Mannose. I had a bladder injury when a disc in my lower back blew 22 years ago and I've dealt with that, but my symptoms now are beyond what I'm used to. I'm planning to see a urologist, but wondered if anyone else has used a supplement successfully to deal with UT issues.

In the past I have taken D-mannose as well to prevent UTI's because for a time it felt like I was getting them constantly even taking precautions to avoid them. It seemed to help prevent but there wasn't any supplement to treat a full blown infection that I could find. Bladder issues are not fun, I grew up with my mom having interstitial cystitis which essentlially equates to her whole bladder/urinary tract being REALLY pissed off at her (no pun intended). That usually has similar symptoms to UTI's but there is no infection. I hope you get some answers because I wouldn't wish UTI pain on my worst enemy.

Day/Weight/Comment

09/24 = 171.0 (no change from yesterday) being having an inner ear issues this week so haven't been able to go running, hoping to get a nice run in today. This round ends the day before my 17th wedding anniversary, so would like to reach my 1st major goal of being in the 160s by then.

09/25 = 171.0 (no change from yesterday)

09/26 = 171.0 (no change from yesterday)

09/27 = DNW (slept in too late to weigh)

09/28 = 170.6 (down .4 lbs) I did all my weekend posts on my phone and when I logged in this morning on my laptop could not find any of them, maybe they never posted?? Anyway, I got in my 3 weekly runs on Friday, Saturday, & Sunday - none of them felt "great" but at least I stayed committed to being consistent to my scheduled runs. This week I am going to start to get back into strength training on the days I'm not running. Hopefully it well help make my runs stronger and get this scale moving again in the right direction! Still doing well with IF 16/8 (some days longer) and but need to be better with my AF days, goal is 4 per week but having only been getting 3 AF days the last 2 weeks which I know is affecting the scale.
