Round 134
Please join us! Starting on 12/04 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 134
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
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.
Goals
- check in at least every other day
- Participate
- Low carb

The 'drops' will be progressively difficult as December moves along. I'm OK with that. In fact, I will probably gain a few lbs.
I don't deny myself the many food and beverage celebrations that come with the holiday season but the log will be for honesty sakes.

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.
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

I'm not even going to set a goal for this round other than to hopefully lose any amount. If Mom gets out of the hospital, I'll be going to stay with my parents for a week or two until we get home health care lined up and Dad gets comfortable with them, so it will be a challenge to get in exercise and/or cook healthy meals for them. They enjoy good ole Southern Comfort Food. I'll be cooking meals for their freezer while I'm there for when I leave, too.

GIVE ME 10 DAYS CHALLENGE 134
Round 134 will be spent in Florida. The good it that there are lovely opportunities to get outdoor exercise but the bad is more dietary challenge with restaurants and MIL cooking when we visit her. Goal for this round is to get to 135 or below, which should not be hard given that the past two days I was under 136 (.8 uptick this morning to start off the round
) and this goal would support my goal for overall month of December of 2 lb loss from yesterday, Dec 1.
For my kick it to the curb, my goal for while I am in Florida (this whole round) is to walk/run to Sombrero beach, take a picture of the sun rising, and walk/run back. That appears to be a little over 6.5 miles total. With that milage, it will likely be a lot more walk than run. :P Iโll figure out my next challenge when I get back home.
Previous goals: get under 150; get under 145 for my birthday (10/26); get to pre-COVID weight 142.4, get under 140 before thanksgiving, get to 137.6 (weight on 10/2/19), not gain over Thanksgiving.

I agree. @GrandmaJackie Can you check the dates listed? Today, dec 2 is last day of round 133, so Dec 3 would typically be first day of the next round, number 134. And I want to add, thank you for offing this group. It's great support!6 -

Round 132 (7): 139.6 to 138.8 (-0.8 lbs)
Round 133 (8): 138.8 to 137.0 (-1.8 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Enjoy the holidays and all the associated treats in moderation. Focus on enjoying the moments, not binging on the sweets.
- Train to be able to run a 5K without stopping by New Years Day.
Ready for another round! My goal this time around are to simply be mindful of my food during the holidays. We have plenty of traditions that involve food and I will still enjoy them just like I did Thanksgiving - but having more chocolate and treats in the house is a temptation to overindulge. I want to savor it when I get to eat something delicious and chocolaty rather than just eating a bunch of them mindlessly.
I am also going to work on improving my 5K time and getting to the point where I can run the whole thing. 2020 has been a rough year - but Iโm determined to end it stronger and fitter than Iโve been in a long time!

3rd 95.8 (salt)1 -
Hey everyone -- I'd like to join the fun! I seem to have started talking to myself in my profile diary and I'd rather have folks to chat with and get to know!
Me: Female, 37, 5'9", Colorado - I've been battling weight since I can remember. Highest weight was ~250 but I've been able to get (and stay) under 200 for quite a while but I'm trending upwards and I need to get things on track! I was hanging around 170-175 for about 6 months then it started going up up up this May. 193.6 today.
Goals
- Check in daily
- Stick to my macros - high protein (at least 130g), low carb (10 total max), moderate fat (minimum 30, max 40)
- Get 8+ hours of sleep per night
Doing these macros for two weeks (11/30 through 12/13) then will re-evaluate; possibly do a week off of low/moderate fat and bump that up to 30 min/90 max. I use https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/calculator/.
R134 SW: Will input soon! GW: Start weight -3!! EW: TBD!
Maintaining goal weight: 160-165

I have just not been focused enough over the last month. Weight up and down and no net loss. I'm now going to focus on the average weight for the round as that was very telling at the end of last round.
OSW 88KG
RSW 62.1 kg
Average last round 62.58 kg
Target this round is to lower the average weight.
12/04 62.3kg not a big gain and I'm on track. Gym done with 30 mins of cardio and 30 mins of strength training. Core fitness class later.

The 'drops' will be progressively difficult as December moves along. I'm OK with that. In fact, I will probably gain a few lbs. I don't deny myself the many food and beverage celebrations that come with the holiday season but the log will be for honesty sakes.

Total toward 100 mile goal walked by 12/31 (since 11/14)= 44.98
Kick 2020 to the Curb Goal: 3-30 min exercise bike workouts per week= 105 miles by Jan. 1 in addition to the walking goal I'm already working on. Bike miles total= 23.83. May do another 5K walk on or around Jan. 1, too, and just see if I can beat my Turkey Trot time.7 -

Day, Weight, Comment
12/03 - 150.1 - Wowza, I didn't expect this. Scale even teased me by flasting 149.9 a couple times before settling. My official TOM is here so I'm wondering if that's playing a part in it. Hopefully it also means my hormones are rebalancing from the (potential) medicine interaction. I did admire myself in the mirror this morning - I can see how much different I look without all the chronic bloating. Apparently my fasting sweet spot is 17-18+ hrs instead of 16 to see significant drops in bloating. May be a bit more challenging to reach on a daily basis, but when its just BF and I, dinner is early enough to make it doable. I drank about 112oz (estimating) yesterday. I was real thirsty towards the evening. Fasted 17.5hrs. Was a bit peckish but wanted slightly longer fast. Had back to back meetings that I knew I couldn't make it through, though. BF made steak and mashed potatoes for us for dinner. I tried to eat slowly and mindfully as to not overeat, but I finished my plate and then finally felt the fullness 20 minutes later. Luckily, the stuffed feeling lasted only about 10 minutes and I was back to feeling satiated. Bodies are funny when you try to learn to listen to them. Definitely not the most straightforward at times.

What better way to beat anxiety than yoga. Today I'll try to get some meditative yoga to help me calm down after last night.

Yesterday I got halfway through my yoga workout and the dog started throwing up everywhere. I have a weak stomach so cleaning it had me gagging and running to the bathroom. Ruined the mood. Try again today to make up for it
12/03 -Did get my yoga done yesterday. Yoga With Adriene has her December calendar up so I'm following those videos on the days I can practice. Yesterday was a 10 minute meditation yoga so I decided to get some movement as well by finishing the practice I didn't get to on 12/01. I just started over since it was also a pretty short one.
