Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 129
Replies
-
Round 129 starts off with a day of restaurant dining for early Anniversary (10/15). Something not faced in prior rounds. Should be fine as I am continuing with pre-track planning the best I can. Goal for this round is to try and finish under 145.0 which translates to -1.0. 59th Birthday is coming early next round and I am pushing to be under 145.0 for that occasion. Success this round will make that likely.

Round 129 – starting weight 145.8
10/14 – 145.2 Well yesterday, I survived well enough dining out (2 days early) for 37th anniversary. Pre-planned what I was going to order and tracked it ahead as well. Did not even look at the menu. Crossed my “base” goal calories, but did not exceed base + exercise. Ironic that my weight finally moved after several days of seesaw despite eating under target and exercising.
10/15 – 145.2 Happy with the number. I’m ok with no change. (Happy 37th anniversary today to me and Hubby. Already celebrated on the 13th as Hubby has to fly/escort his mother back to Florida today)
10/16 – 145.4 always a little back and forth! :P
10/17 – 146.2 Was making Halloween goodie bags and then had a sugar melt down. A totally untracked quantity. Over and done with. Move on.
10/18 – 146.0 repairing the damage
10/19 – 145.4 Almost back to 145.2. Still trying for under 145 for the 23rd.

😡 I think this bump is water and delayed response from two days of Greek food.

A little better. I drank lots of water yesterday to flush all that salt. It’s chilly and rainy this morning, and we’re supposed to have a hard freeze tonight, so when the rain stops I need to do a few outdoor garden things. One will be to collect a bouquet before the flowers freeze! 💐 Have a lovely day, all.

I need to get some high-protein breakfast foods that don’t require much morning prep time lined up. I love Bilinski turkey sausages, love eggs done almost any way. Sometimes I make my own version of egg McMuffin, but healthier. I used to make overnight muesli with egg whites and kefir — maybe I’ll make some of those. Left to my own devices, I’d eat a substantial breakfast, big late lunch, and skip dinner, which we do sometimes. Anyway, what do you eat for breakfast? I’m looking for ideas.

That makes no sense, although my rings are tight so maybe water. Whatever. Happy Saturday, my friends!

Yesterday was a good day! Writing, knitting, reading, painting kitchen-laundry room door (pretty green), goofing off. Perfect. I have an entertainment center I’m making into a pantry (not enough storage in the kitchen), so today’s the day we start on that. I’m excited to get that project done. Have a great Sunday, all!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/13 …..208.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
10/14 …..209.2 ….. After travel weight so I’ll take it. Good luck everyone this round. Welcome to all the newbies, we are thrilled that you have joined us!
10/15 …..208.4 ….. I shed that travel weight quickly with some pretty good choices at home yesterday. Today is a WONDERFUL day for me. I have been going through some very tough things here at home and work and today a wee piece of it is getting resolved. I will explain when I have time. It has been time crunching and gut wrenching at times which has been holding me back from my usual fitness and diet routines. 2 more parts to go and I hope to be all in again by the first of the year. In the meantime, it’s wonderful to see the progression in all parts of my life including these little losses on the scale. Thanks for your support everyone! I’m finding my way back slowly but surely!
10/16 …..208.2 ….. I was hoping for a bigger drop but I guess I should not get greedy. I am happy, overall, at the downward trend when I know I am not in a place to give 100% just yet. However, the dust will settle eventually! Yay on the continual improvement!
10/17 …..207.6 ….. This is great news for me! I have been lowering my portion sizes and choosing my snacks carefully. I am still not getting in enough movement, not logging consistently and not counting calories and carbs to the exact numbers. However, I am making the small changes here and there that is helping to make a difference. Life is still upside down for me, but I am tweaking what I can and staying committed in my mind and soul. That is the best I can hope for or do right now. The little changes make a difference, friends!
10/18 …..208.2 ….. I’m not sure exactly what happened. Small portions and pretty good choices. Probably the garlic bread. I noticed on my spoiler that I have lost (and made goal of ANY LOSS) the last 3 rounds. Striving to keep up the momentum.
10/19 …..207.4 ….. Wow! The ups & downs of a weight loss journey! I really watched my portions yesterday and had no bedtime snacks when watching late-night TV because I took my son out to a newly renovated restaurant in our town that now serves Pizza including Deep Dish Square Pizza. In this little town, that is a BIG DEAL. It was delicious even though it is not normally in my menu planning. My son and I ate JUST UNTIL we began to feel full and took the rest home for dinner later. Portion Control especially with “wrong foods” is ESSENTIAL. No snacks-payment for the Pizza. It greatly helped the scale this morning. I am so happy that it did not completely blow my progress. Social things will always occur…..I’ve just got to keep making those adjustments. Have a great week everyone!

@xxxSheilaxxx I was going to mention yesterday (and forgot) that you need to ignore friends negative comments about your weight. My neighbor has been telling me for a year that I’m “too skinny.” She finally stopped when I told her the Wii Fit said I was perfect and the doctor concurred than my weight was fine. I think a lot of those remarks are sparked by jealousy or envy of our accomplishments. You do you and keep on truckin’!7

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.
Rnd 129 SW 115.5
10/14 116.5 Expected, 1/2 Greek salad with gyro meat yesterday AF
10/15 117.0 In-N-Out burger for supper last night and I ate most of the bun for the first time in over 3 years. Virtual quilt guild meeting tonight. Getting together with friends for that. AF
10/16 119.0. No TMI x 3 days! ‘Nuff said except considering dynamite! Although I ate that bun the other evening, that isn’t responsible for all of this recent gain. I ate a LOT of veggies yesterday which were about 28g of my 33g of carbs. I’m so bloated that my shorts were uncomfortable last night. Still under my goal weight and back on the rails after this odd week. It’s all good!
10/17 117.0 Some TMI success. I was so stressed yesterday all day because DH left his phone in a neighbors garage Thursday night when he was fixing her sprinkler system. He was so obsessed about getting it back but she was not home or answering her cell phone. By about 7 PM I called her again and she finally answered. She located the phone and he went and picked it up. It was not a good day for me I did not go to the gym, I don’t even remember what I ate but fortunately logged as I slogged my way through the day. He needs a man purse but refuses! Clearly I am frustrated!
10/18 118.0 Scale gave me an ERR first so may need a new battery but it’s all good. Social visit with neighbors last night. AF
10/19 116.5 AF Planning to fast tomorrow if DH’s lunch plans work out. So much easier if I don’t have to make him dinner! 🥴🤪🤞7 -
Ok! I’ve stopped eating those foods that make me swollen. Used the last 10 days to deflate, and now it’s time to really focus on some weight loss!

10/14 - 172.5
10/15 - 171.5 - I did well yesterday! Busy most of the day out of the house, which definitely helped to not eat the Halloween candy on sale I bought, haha
10/16 - 171.5
10/17 - 174 - what the heck! Not enough water, not enough sleep, late night snacking ugh.
10/18 - 173 - slept better but barely drank any water & ate things I shouldn’t have. 2 kids birthday parties in one day! It’ll take me a few days probably to go back.
10/19 - 173.5 - another day of not eating the right things. Definitely not enough water .. my goal this time is not looking achievable!

Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 148
GW: 140
UGW: 125
GW for this round: 146
Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 128 (3): 150.4 to 148.0 (-2.4 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Lose 2 lbs
- Get out for a morning run twice and do Ring Fit the other days
- Do core strengthening exercises 5x (every other day)
10/14 - 148.0 - Starting off on a nice round number. Got new running shoes yesterday, and they feel great! I’d forgotten how big a difference good shoes can make for my knees and feet. Did the new core exercises this morning; here’s to a great round for everyone!
10/15 - 147.2 - Ugh, yesterday was HARD. I don’t know what the trigger was (lack of sleep? hormones? too much calorie restriction?) but I was SO HUNGRY all day. I wanted to eat everything in sight. I managed to mostly stick to my meal plan, but still indulged in some extra bites here and there. I’m happy about the scale going down, but I’ve got to make some modifications if I keep feeling like this. It’s not worth it and definitely not sustainable.
10/16 - 147.2 - Happy to hold steady after such a big drop yesterday. Still not sure what caused such extreme hunger, but I felt much better yesterday and today. Will be ordering out for dinner, so will need to plan carefully.
10/17 - 147.8 - Not surprised, for two reasons. One is that we had take-out pizza last night that was very salty - both kids woke up wanting water overnight. The second is that I’ve been tracking my weight with HappyScale (after seeing it recommended here!) and I can see that I generally have a bump up every 12-14 days and I was due for one. Knowing that history makes it a lot easier not to freak out when I see the number on the scale go up.
10/18 - 147.8 - High again, but it’s also now TOM, so again, not too surprised. Also felt very sore and heavy trying to exercise this morning. Just got to keep eating well and trust that the scale will go back down.
10/19 - 146.4 - There we go, back on track!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 187.2 I feel like I have been getting a little lax with my calorie allowances. I need to find some mojo and stick to my goal for several days in order to get the results that I want. On the plus side I am still (slightly) below my trend line. Est. Cals yesterday: 1827 due to wine and chocolate, when I started back counting calories I was leaving an allowance for these treats so I didn't go over, gotta get back there mentally.
10/15 187.6
10/16 187.2
10/17 187.8 Just hanging out here.. really surprised it's not worse considering it's TOM and I've been eating a lot more treats/calories. Hopefully the hormones will settle and I can resume a more stable path.. Trend is flatlining but I'll drink a lot of water today and preplan my food.
10/18 189.4 estimated cals 1486 I am guessing this bump is due to eating sushi for lunch.. rice and salt. Hard to get the calories right too.
10/19 188.8 estimated cals 1434 ready for the scale to behave itself now..

I need to reassess my goal for 2020. Today I stand at 197.6. Can I lose 5.6 lbs by December 1st? My weight loss journey has slowed down. I know I have gained some muscle (no complaints) and today is October 12. December 1st is 7 weeks and one day away. I should be able to lose 5 and half pounds in the time frame and at least 1 more NSV. Who knows what it will be.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 I refuse to record what it said this morning.
10/15 199.3 Better but still not great. With the increased hunger I am trying the afternoon tea. Which is helping but it not great. I have been over my calorie goal (not including exercise) almost everyday for the past 2 weeks. Yesterday I was under. Where did my resolve go? She is missing replaced by this hunger monster. Drink water, eat healthy snacks, get in my walking and some planks…
10/16 198.7 TOM almost over and swelling going down. Had a good calorie day. 15000 steps Wednesday and Thursday yesterday 1564 in calories. Afternoon tea is definitely helping that monster. Plus I am eating a little more in the morning. A 450 breakfast will last longer than a 350 breakfast. I cannot skip breakfast. Favorite meal of the day.
10/17 198.4
10/18 198.7 still getting in my 15 minutes in the AM. Long walk yesterday.
10/19 198.7 doing well this weekend no change is better then uptick. Made some apple crisp this weekend. Very good no guilt.

🏃 10/14: 158.4 I didn't really want to restrict myself on any sort of food, but maybe, just maybe, I should make an exception for processed fried foods. They never sit well despite being ever so delicous. Lmao. It is only a pound and just gives me more to lose this round. I am ready! Today is Ring Fit Adventure Day! Due to all of these fluctuations, I will wait it out another round before I consider my mini goal of 158 achieved. I'm still on cloud nine just getting into the 150s. I almost can't believe how much I've achieved in only 60 days. I know this recurring thread has played a big role, so thanks to all who maintain it!
🏃 10/15: 156.8 I had steak and green beans for dinner yesterday, so I ate much better overall, though I did have Ramen noodles for lunch. I didn't, however, get to Ring Fit. It has been too long, so I will try to exercise today.
🏃 10/16: 156.4 I instictively started typing "16" instead of "15" out of habit. Lmao. I still haven't played my fitness games, yet, but I'm glad that my numbers are still looking good while I gather the motivation to play.
🏃 10/17: 155.8 Yahoo! I was a little worried because I had chic-fil-a, but it all worked out anyway!
🏃 10/18: 155.2
🏃 10/19: 155.6 A few ounces is really nothing. However, the real problem is my inactivity. I need to exercise today for sure. It's been almost a week and all the returns from my previous workouts have been diminished and spent.

Previous Round
Round 128: 138-139 (+1)
This is a gain in pounds but yet I feel less dread about the scale. I committed to 10 days of daily weigh-one and I did it! The scale used to delicate my mood. By the end of my 10 days, it didn’t. Hopefully that will continue. I am going to try it again!
Day/Weight/Comment
10/14 143lbs. (But I didn’t panic!)
10/15 140lbs. (Better but it isn’t making me obsess!)
10/16 139lbs. (Every day the scale matters less and how I am eating and moving and feeling matters more...of course it is nice to see the number go down but I know I can go back up, too. Slow and steady!)
10/17 134lbs. (So this was good. But slow and steady. Slow and steady.)
10/18 138.5lbs. (Alas, this makes sense...it is “that time of the month” and sometimes on the first day it is a gain of 6 or 8! So this is something of which I am VERY familiar-ugh. The main goal for today is to get my daily run in and my exercises done. I won’t feel like eating but I won’t feel like moving either! Haha!)
10/19 137.5lbs. (Eating right, running even in the rain, just keeping on keep in’ on!)

Looking forward:
You are not stuck at home
You are SAFE at home
One word can change your attitude
One cough can change your life
Take care! Stay safe!
October focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2020 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 128- Stabilise weight under 150
- 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!
Recent 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 ✅ Working on it. Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2020
- Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
- (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- 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.

Kids sprung the Bookweek parade on me for tomorrow. A rush to the shops for materials and a planned dinner out the window. At least the kids will look good tomorrow.

Friday drinks. I haven't done that for 20 years. I am a slow drinker, so have one small one while everyone else has 2-3. Saves calories at least, and means I can still drive home at the end.

Election Day. Lots of walking and a democracy sausage and cake. Practicing portion control.

TOM is causing a really sore back. I'm just going to take it easy with a heat pack. It generally doesn't last more than a day or 2. Got my first weight loss comment today.

I really need to redo my rotating dinner menu. Pasta isn't a good option for me anymore. I made my own, leftover soup, coleslaw and eggs.

I'm in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!
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 surgery then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle. Getting back to it slowly.
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.
