I lost 16lbs with you all April-October 2020 and I want to keep it off!
Maintenance goal: 135-140 lbs
This round, I need to practice maintaining by: ✅eating really whole, fresh foods and
✅getting some activity every day.
My challenges are:
◾the time change (work hours shift to an hour earlier for the winter) and
◾managing cravings and goals throughout TOM
I think it would also feel less strict if I lost another pound or two and hovered closer to the middle of my range instead of popping over it so many days. Last round was over range 8 days, within range 2 days.
Day/Weight/Comment
11/03 140.6 had a weird dinner. Need to be more intentional and plan what I want to eat earlier in the day when I'm not hungry and tired.

Just Give Me 10 Days is the first “challenge” that has helped me gain some freedom over the scale. Most days my weight doesn’t shape my mood- so far. And so I am deeply grateful for this and for you all.
My main goal is not to be elated or devastated by the scale. It has been a very long, emotionally painful journey with my weight, all of my life. I want so badly to escape my food addiction. I never want to be 338lbs. again but I know it could very well happen. I don’t want to be 115lbs. again because at that weight I was losing my hair and I was sick all of the time and exercising four hours a day, eating less than 800 calories. I just want moderation!
This daily weigh-in has been a good discipline. Hard to get too excited or upset over the scale when one sees how much fluctuation happens regardless of my caloric intake and exercise.
I limit myself to a manageable 3.5 mile run each day, a 20 min morning workout and a 10 minute bedtime workout. And I eat 1,200 6 days a week and 3,600 one day a week. (My high-protein day). No added sugar. No meat.
STARTING WEIGHT: 338lbs on January 1, 2014
ROUND 131 STARTING WEIGHT ON 11/3: 137.5lbs.
ROUND GOAL WEIGHT: 137.5-136.5lbs.

Day/Weight/Comment
11/3: 137.5lbs. (So it seems like I am not successful on this plan, but I don’t see it that way for the first time in my life. In the last 30 days I have lost .5lbs. That is good! That is just fine! The main thing is that I am not bingeing or restricting or purging or over exercising. All things I used to do. I have eaten right. I have run 3.5 miles a day, I have done my exercises every morning and night. I have not eaten added sugars. And I have not let the scale determine my mood except for one day! And the bonus is I weigh .5 less than I did last month! I was 338lbs. in November of 2013. I was 158lbs. on this day in November last year. I am headed in the right direction.)
11/4: 136lbs. (Here I am.)
11/5: 138.5lbs. (Last night I made a conscious and controlled choice to eat in excess of my calories for the day. No added sugars, high protein “good” whole food, but still over my caloric allotment for the day. It was not for a good reason. While I was hungry, yes but I always am- 1,200 a day doesn’t feel like a lot when I average 18,000 steps a day with 65 minutes of cardio daily. But I ate because I am so scared about the election. I knew that banana and the pint of blueberries wouldn’t change the results or make revealed any faster but I gave in and said “I need this.” So my goal today is to not restrict, which would be my pattern. Normally I would eat about 300 calories or less today. And best myself up. But my goal is not to do that today. Accept whatever gain I have this round and move forward.)
11:6: 137.5 (I didn’t restrict! Ate 1,175 calories and exercised and ran and didn’t let the scale get me down OR up!)
11/7: 135lbs. (Still here!)
11/8: 137.5lbs. (How can I not be thankful today, regardless of the number!)

11/08 - 152.6 - Expected with traveling/moving. Of course, when moving, things are packed and you have to eat out in some form or fashion - pizza Friday night for dinner, packing some stuff. Woke up to boudin kolaches before resuming loading. Had cold pizza for lunch then another long drive home (5.5hrs there, about 6hrs back with uhaul truck) before dinner out (cooking was out of the question, especially with kids involved - they needed to eat before bedtime). Unfortunately Gigi gravely underestimated how much stuff and the uhaul truck was not enough by any means and nothing available to load the rest so in 2 weekends time, we'll be doing it again. We would next weekend but BF is in Oklahoma visiting his parents so I think he managed to convince FamHub to wait another weekend. Minus the 2 refridgerators, washer, and dryer, this is the easy (but awkwardly shaped) light stuff. Today, because we got home so late yesterday, we have to unload into the storage unit. My poor arms are so tired. This is definitely a workout and I can tell I haven't lifted weights in awhile haha Doesn't help I'm a bit dehydrated. I tried drinking water, but its hard when traveling because I'll have to pee every 5 minutes. Definitely taking my water jug with me to unload.

Previous Day's Comments11/03 - Dinner wasn't great. I felt so bloated and heavy and just ick in general within minutes of eating. I didn't have a lot, but it felt like I gorged myself out of nowhere. 1 cup of stew is it. Not sure what that was about. Water was short, but not by too awful much. Better than it has been. Chilly out this morning so definitely thinking yoga if I manage a workout. 16hrs fastest yesterday. Might try for 17 today, depends on how my poor tummy feels.
11/04 - I don't feel overly bloated AND I dropped? My body is really all over the place lately. I'll take it, though, since that makes more sense to me. I didn't get to fast much as BF made breakfast (he was really excited and wanted me to try this new combination he thought of - it was AMAZING). Today I definitely want to fast a bit longer. Dinner ended earlier than it has been the last several days, back to where it was previously, so that helps with longer fasts in the morning. I was shy about 6oz of hitting water goal, but much much better than before. I'm already ahead of the curve this morning with water so today should go well. I have a salad and some fresh fruit for lunch so I'm set to break my fast with the good stuff. Not sure what dinner is yet. Hopefully it has a side of vegetables, though. Been trying to focus on healthier options. I bought some Meal Simple options from HEB. Had General Tso's with veggies on Monday (craving Chinese food while shopping) and yesterday I had teriyaki salmon with stir fry veggies. Last week I had a baked potato from it. It is a little more expensive, but I figured I'd try it. I was craving a baked potato and my fast was over while I was still shopping - boom, I happened to see a baked potato in that section!. Worked out really well and it was quite yummy. Plus, it inspired me to start thinking of lunches I can make for myself at home/prep for when I begin commuting (if that ever happens). Some require an oven (like my salmon - its uncooked), and some are cooked and ready to reheat in the microwave. Its definitely way better than a frozen meal when in a pinch! I think I really needed those to kickstart me back into focusing on healthier options during my eating window.
11/05 - Not really bloated, but have a bit of heaviness in my low belly. Nothing terrible, just noticeable. I managed my water goal yesterday of 64oz. 16hr 20min fasting. Dinner did not have veggies, but I feel my salad helped balance that, as well as the fruit I snacked on a bit for that sweet flavor. Not ideal, but better. Think I need to focus on getting veggies in during lunch. I typically don't know what dinner will be until its being made so to ensure I get some in, my lunch needs to include veg. If there's veg at dinner as well, that's even better! I have some steamables veggies for lunch but nothing else. May pair with a small sandwich. Then I'll focus on brainstorming ideas for when I go shopping next. I really loved steamables before, but it seems HEB hasn't had the selection I'm used to. Walmart may have to bridge that gap which will take more planning. My health is worth it!
11/06 - Likely from my fish and chips (its a guilty pleasure I've been wanting to try at this new place for awhile. Worth it!). Water was over 75oz but didn't measure how much over. Finally! Getting ready to head towards east Texas to go help FamHub's mom pack her house (closes Dec 1) and move her here (she's already living with him until the new apartments are finished building and she can move in them). Won't be weighing in tomorrow, but should be back Sunday. BF will leave Monday morning to go see his mom (4th time with breast cancer - going in for treatment and not looking good) and won't be back until next Sunday so I'll have more freedom to deep clean the house and get exercise in the living room (more space) without disturbing him at work. Also thinking of experimenting with longer fasts (maybe an alternate day to see how that feels? Guess I'll see how OMAD goes, first). Lots of sitting (5hrs approx) today and tomorrow but also lots of packing and moving so it should offset. BF still can't lift anything terribly heavy so FamHub and I will be the heavy lifters. His mom will likely focus on packing and also has bad shoulder so her and BF will take smaller stuff. Have a great weekend, everyone!

@SModa61 and @CamandJarvis — I was just thinking yesterday about training again for a race, more for the training than the race. I ran several 5Ks and 10Ks and a half marathon in 2015-17, but have gotten out of shape/practice. Maybe we could egg each other on! I haven’t searched the virtual events yet — do you have any good links in the meantime? I’m not sure how it will go when winter weather hits, but a goal might motivate me. (Training for the half was grueling, but I did it. Time to get off my lazy COVID butt!)
Sorry I'm late responding! I like virtualrunningclub.com because they will only send you a finisher's medal if you input your finish time - its keeps me honest. Sometimes I've broken it up into two sections, added time together and submitted. Sometimes I've done it in one go. Either way, I have to submit a time to receive the medal I paid for. You can opt in for a medal if you'd like, same with shirt and customized bib (I think a regular bib is free if you sign up) or you can opt out of it all, completely up to you. I personally just do free bib and a medal to hang on my wall.
I've also done runs from flexitpink.com but that's for specific charities I want to support.4 -
@quiltingjaine @musicax @Smoda61 and anyone else who might be interested. I know this doesn't give us much time. I also understand that Thanksgiving is an American holiday, but the images out there for Turkey Trots are just so CUTE! But, currently, I have it more as an end of November thing. I thought maybe some of us (I know I do) need something concrete to work on. If we like this, I can see us doing a "Kick 2020 to the Curb" 5K/10K Walk/Run/whatever by the end of December.
In this virtual event, each person could set their own goal. I will be walking only because of my knees, but others could run/walk/exercise/dance/treadmill/whatever they wish to set as their goal. @quiltingjaine, I noticed Leslie Sansone has an indoor 5K video. Her videos are always fun. I need to get back to doing them.
As for "training together," I think just mentioning our progress toward our goal occasionally along the way here in this forum might be motivating, give us a sense of camaraderie in a time when physical separation from those we used to hang out with is so depressing.
Anyone interested?

@quiltingjaine I was looking into them last night. Right now they are all virtual, which is a little different, but also, maybe not so bad. thanks for the encouragement
Wonder if we could do a virtual 5K from this group? Maybe we pick a week and those who want to, walk or run (I'd be walking it) wherever they wish, but we "train" for it together. Then anytime within a week (or maybe a 10 days) we pick a day to do our 5K when the weather is decent wherever we live, and we celebrate together. I need to be training for something, that's for sure.
I actually really love this idea! I'd probably walk/run in depending on how I'm feeling (yay changing weather

Calories still higher than my goal, but lowest of the past two weeks, so a good start. No snacks last night, but I did have a modest serving of pumpkin crunch cake, hence the calories. But all good!
11/4 - 182.8 - 1524
Still didn’t get my calories to my goal, but below maintenance and so far I’ve avoided stress-eating my way through the election, so good. I went for a lovely walk at one of my favorite parks. We have a string of sunny 60s days in the forecast so I’ll be sticking to the walking routine.
11/5 - 182.8 - 1624
Oops. I had some popcorn with butter last night and chickpea linguini with clam sauce for dinner, a little salty — feel puffy this morning. But all good. I’m off for a walk, then some garden work and stowing outdoor furniture for the winter. Mike the cat and I had fun watching a chipmunk run back and forth by the sliding door this morning while I had my coffee. Building his winter stash!
11/6 - 182.8 - 1627
Ok, stuck is better than gaining, and I did have a fun-size PayDay stress bar 😁 yesterday. Gorgeous day here — I’m off for a walk.
@SModa61 and @CamandJarvis — I was just thinking yesterday about training again for a race, more for the training than the race.

Whaaaaa? Ok, I have to assume water retention because my average calories are down. Weird. Anyway, I had a nice walk yesterday and am heading out again soon, aiming for more time & distance. Have a lovely Saturday!
11/8 - 183.4 - 1801
I walked a little farther yesterday than the day before, and am aiming for more today as I build back to my old 5-6 miles once or twice most days. I need to get some warmer clothes to keep this up as we settle into colder weather, but for now we t-shirt weather by afternoon. I did eat too much — DH, totally clueless about calories and skinny — made chicken pasta Alfredo for dinner, and I didn’t realize until after dinner how astonishingly high the calories are. Whew! If I’d known, I’d have gone lighter at lunch, but oh, well. Leftovers tonight, but salad for lunch should help, and half a normal serving for dinner. 😁 I think I’m retaining water from the sudden uptick in exercise plus no doubt higher sodium in all that cheese. Have a happy Sunday, all!

@SModa61 and @CamandJarvis — I was just thinking yesterday about training again for a race, more for the training than the race. I ran several 5Ks and 10Ks and a half marathon in 2015-17, but have gotten out of shape/practice. Maybe we could egg each other on! I haven’t searched the virtual events yet — do you have any good links in the meantime? I’m not sure how it will go when winter weather hits, but a goal might motivate me. (Training for the half was grueling, but I did it. Time to get off my lazy COVID butt!)
Sorry I'm late responding! I like virtualrunningclub.com because they will only send you a finisher's medal if you input your finish time - its keeps me honest. Sometimes I've broken it up into two sections, added time together and submitted. Sometimes I've done it in one go. Either way, I have to submit a time to receive the medal I paid for. You can opt in for a medal if you'd like, same with shirt and customized bib (I think a regular bib is free if you sign up) or you can opt out of it all, completely up to you. I personally just do free bib and a medal to hang on my wall.
I've also done runs from flexitpink.com but that's for specific charities I want to support.
Thanks, @CamandJarvis — I’ll check them out. I did you check out the Wrightsville Beach (NC) Turkey Trot yesterday, a race I did ever Thanksgiving when we lived in NC, and may sign up for their virtual race (benefits Habitat for Humanity), but I’ll check out the sites you mentioned first, and look for local races where I am now. Fun to be back at it!@quiltingjaine @musicax @Smoda61 and anyone else who might be interested. I know this doesn't give us much time. I also understand that Thanksgiving is an American holiday, but the images out there for Turkey Trots are just so CUTE! But, currently, I have it more as an end of November thing. I thought maybe some of us (I know I do) need something concrete to work on. If we like this, I can see us doing a "Kick 2020 to the Curb" 5K/10K Walk/Run/whatever by the end of December.
In this virtual event, each person could set their own goal. I will be walking only because of my knees, but others could run/walk/exercise/dance/treadmill/whatever they wish to set as their goal. @quiltingjaine, I noticed Leslie Sansone has an indoor 5K video. Her videos are always fun. I need to get back to doing them.
As for "training together," I think just mentioning our progress toward our goal occasionally along the way here in this forum might be motivating, give us a sense of camaraderie in a time when physical separation from those we used to hang out with is so depressing.
Anyone interested?
@UTMom81 I love all of this, including the poster! Maybe those of us doing the group turkey trot and/or kick 2020 could post the poster, or a smaller version, on our posts so we can check in with each other? Would you mind? In any case, I’m in! I won’t be ready to run 5K by TG, but will walk or “wun” (walk/run), which is how I did races in the past anyway. Yay — a goal!6 -

11/05. 122.2. Nothing to see here, just keep going... ugh, bad day yesterday... snacks city. Getting back on the horse today. 😞
11/06 121.4. That’s what getting back on the horse looks like... so easily could have just continued to blow it. Very proud of myself.
11/07 121.4 stayed the same, but honestly need to eat less sugar if I want to feel better, and is I want to hit my goals 😞
11/08. Let’s say it together... 121.4!!! 🙄 seriously, at this point I feel like it will be a big victory if I can get below 121.4 and don’t jump up because I’m frustrated. But let’s be clear... it’s NOT a mystery to me why I’m not losing. Tracking everything let’s you know why you are not losing !! Here’s to getting in a calorie deficits and staying there!

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

@HoopsGuy72 If I remember correctly, any color on the pee sticks indicates ketones are present. The problem is they measure ketones that your body is throwing off. Once you become fat adapted, they will have no reaction because your body is running on ketones not sugar. I believe with the sticks I had, darker was better BUT the color can change because you are dehydrated also. I finally bought a meter and strips which requires a finger prick. It’s expensive and I DO test daily but that is my choice.
I’m so glad you’re back! Hope things are getting better there. I have totally quit reading any info about COVID and the election. Enough said.1 -

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)
Round 129 (4): 148.0 to 146.0 (-2.0 lbs)
Round 130 (5): 146.0 to 144.4 (-1.6 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Lose 2 lbs
- Meal prep breakfast for at least 6 days
- Add Just Dance 2020 to morning workout 4-5x a week to increase cardio on top of Ring Fit strength exercises
11/03 - 143.8 - Ok, I think I’m back to my normal trend after Halloween. I’m really, really anxious about the election today here in the US though, and it will be a struggle all day not to eat those feelings.
11/04 - 141.6 - Well, that was another “wait, what the...?” moment on the scale this morning. I’d be ecstatic if some of this loss stays around, but I think a chunk of it is due to not being able to eat much of anything yesterday afternoon/evening. Still, by breaking 143 I have now officially lost 20 lbs!
11/05 - 142.4 - Completely expected that bump back up; I was going to be happy with anything under 143. I ordered my “reward” workout outfit (for getting to 145) a week or so ago and it should be arriving in the next day or two. I can’t wait for it to get here - I just hope it fits!
11/06 - 141.6 - And back down again! Wow, I might make it to 140 before Thanksgiving (which would be awesome). Noticing more definition in my arms and legs, which is really encouraging.
11/07 - 141.8 - Beautiful sunny fall day - cool and crisp. Hope to go for a nice walk later today. I’d been trying for the past few days to watch the moment the election was called... and I missed it by minutes since I was exercising this morning. 😂. Oh well! Made it to the last world on Ring Fit - hopefully can beat the final boss before the end of this round.
11/08 - DNW - I went out and got doughnuts for the family this morning, so I skipped my workout and usual weigh-in time. I limited myself to half a doughnut and a few doughnut holes, and will get back to regular tracking for lunch and dinner. Hopefully I can also fit in some exercise this afternoon- but it felt great to relax, indulge and celebrate a bit.

Round 131: DAY SIX
Overall starting weight: 349.2
Round 131 starting weight: 333.2
Aim for Round 131: lose 1.3lbs (331.9)
Goals: weigh in every day and give a sentence update on how I'm doing
11/03: 333.2. Yesterday was a good day, although I panicked about my calories being 100 higher than most Mondays because I had a lasagne; I definitely catastrophise weight loss. Good to hold on to the loss so far.
11/04: 332.2. Down a pound, which is great, although it can easily bounce back up again tomorrow, but it's great to see the scales coming down. Makes me feel like I can do this.
11/05: 332.2 Holding on to the pound weight loss, which is great - that's 17lbs total so far. It's very slow given my age and MS, but the scales are coming down.
11/06: 332.2. Holding on to the pound loss, pleased about that! But goodness me it's hard going.
11/07: 332.2 I know this is crazy, but I get so frustrated when I have the same weight day after day, when I am trying so hard. Got to look at the bigger picture and remember that it's 17lbs down and I am feeling and looking better, and keep at it!!
11/08: 331.0 Woo hoo! That's another pound down, which is fabulous

Day/Weight/Comment
11/02 …..208.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
11/03 …..207.6 ….. TMI helped. Just sayin’…… Good luck everyone on this round!
11/04 …..????? ….. I can’t believe I forgot to weigh in today before the half pot of coffee I have already drank! Will have to wait until tomorrow. Yesterday was an excellent day for meals and movement. The snacks were a bit much but, otherwise, all well-chosen meals. I hope to get in a lot more movement today. I had to cancel my far-away oncology and mammogram appointments due to insurance issues. Rescheduled for spring to avoid bad weather driving, 4 hours each way.
11/05 …..206.6 ….. I figured that it would be pretty good on the scale today. The last couple of days have been filled with lots of work & some lower calorie choices. Not perfect but I knew it would reflect well on the scale.
11/06 …..205.2 ….. More movement for sure and it’s helping. So much going on around here. I will explain when I have more time, but in the meantime, I am really trying to watch it and move as best I can!
11/07 …..205.2 ….. I am just happy to be the same today. I had a severe glucose drop last night. I managed to stay away from the panic and the feeding frenzy that usually accompany diabetic sugar drops, but I still stuffed things into my pie hole that I would not normally pick due to sheer need and fear. Thankfully the scale was okay today. I know what happened. I took my normal lunch and cut it in half to eat for dinner. Problem: my lunch was very very small to begin with so it was just not enough carbs or calories. I will be more careful today. Low cal volume with some reasonable carbs are on the menu!
11/08 …..206.0 ….. Stayed with small meals yesterday and some extra movement so I am a little stumped. However, no TMI and my meals may have been a bit too salty (??). We will see what tomorrow brings.

Here is a small version of the Turkey Trot logo. In Photoshop, I've got it down to .7 inch x .7 inch or 100 pixels. Hopefully that's the size it posts here, but we will see when I hit Post!
I just got in my first training session: 2.65 miles in 49:20. I'm slow as cold molasses, but it felt really good!

11/4: 222.0 (-0.4)/29.3 (-0.1)
11/5: 221.8 (-0.2)/29.3 (0.0).
11/6: 221.6 (-0.2)/29.3 (0.0). Hey everybody. So... my scale broke, I got frustrated, and I've been having back problems and some GI issues. I just started weighing in again a couple of days ago, which magically coincided with the beginning of a new round. So here I am! I also happened to start keto on 11/4, for the first time in a couple of years. It's worked out REALLY well for me in the past, so I'm excited. No matter what, I'm happy to be back here!
11/7: 219.8 (-1.8)/28.9 (-0.4). I love keto SOOOOOO much. I eat, I'm not hungry, I like the food, and I lose weight. And I can finally stop watching the various cable news outlets to get updates on the election. I am going to lift weights today (which I have not done in a while). For those of you on keto, what's a good number on the "ketone" tests to determine if you're in the right area? And does it matter what time of day I choose to pee on a stick?
11/8: 219.6 (-0.2)/28.8 (-0.1). I had my brother-in-law and his fiancee over last night, and I stuck with my plan. I stayed keto all night (ordered from a different place than they did), and I had only spirits (probably four shots total). So far, so good. I'm going to relax today. I hope everyone is well.

quiltingjaine wrote: »@HoopsGuy72 If I remember correctly, any color on the pee sticks indicates ketones are present. The problem is they measure ketones that your body is throwing off. Once you become fat adapted, they will have no reaction because your body is running on ketones not sugar. I believe with the sticks I had, darker was better BUT the color can change because you are dehydrated also. I finally bought a meter and strips which requires a finger prick. It’s expensive and I DO test daily but that is my choice.
I’m so glad you’re back! Hope things are getting better there. I have totally quit reading any info about COVID and the election. Enough said.
Thanks for the info (any other info is always welcome, of course!). Things aren't MUCH better overall, but I feel SO MUCH BETTER when I'm healthy. I'm going to focus as much as I can on this tiny little slice of life that I have any control over.3 -

I'm so sorry that you had a bad experience with keto. It's worked really well for me in the past, so hopefully I'll have similar positive results this time around.2 -

Thanks, @UTMom81 ! I went out a bit ago. 2 miles in 36 min, walking. I’m planning to go out again later. I don’t think speed matters — it’s doing it at all!5 -
