Round 139
Please join us! Starting on 01/22JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 139
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.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 139 (round 71 for me ) I'm in for another round as I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you GrandmaJackie a brilliant champion in these unprecedented & unsettled times, for continuing to set up these challenges.
Female age 62 5' 4” - Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back closer to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life ! Long term goal is to get and then stay under 130; then full maintanece starts and dare I say it is in my sights? Also to complete running 5K this round.
Challenge for this round – dare I hope to get into 130s for the end of the round? I've not been that low since June 2019! Stick with good habits; be mindful of what I eat & drink, try to keep it in moderation, keep walking, no binges; remember keeping the 10 days binge free makes such a difference!
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.End of round 69 134.2 lbs

01/21 131.2 – wow a whoosh on the final day! Hurrah !! 6.9 miles walked yesterday managed to find a no/light rain window to get out . Really pleased with myself this round; a loss of 2.8 pounds (I was 1.2 pounds up on last round!) I need to take forward from this what I can achieve when I stick to the plan and not binge. I am also pleased with myself that I have (for this round at least!) managed to ration myself to a couple of Quality Street chocolates (Christmas leftovers) per day, usually one taste of chocolate is the trigger for a binge, Need to continue with this training!
Day/Weight/Comment
01/22 130.2 – Whooowhoo !! Knock me down with a feather ! I didn't expect that! Lowest weight since 26th June 2019! I had set my goals last night daring myself to get into the 130's during this new round and here I am on day 1!! So my amended goal is to stay within the 130's and maybe sneak down below 130? The later is a big ask with these whooshes the last 2 consecutive days. 8.86 miles yesterday including
17 minutes running. I really struggled yesterday with the running: I was aiming for 30 minutes after doing 28 & 29 on Monday & Tuesday respectively, but after 15 minutes I as pushing myself, oh well, try again today.

JGM10D Round 139
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!😷
January focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:
2021 Focus:- Maintain weight < 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:JGM10D ~|~ Round 138- 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 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2021
- 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.

01/22 174.2 Did well with food choices all day long. I was hungry yesterday afternoon, but managed to snack on just berries and a few almonds and made it to the dinner I had planned without blowing it. Continuing my No Junk Food Challenge this round. It has become a staple for me. I think I've only messed it up one day in the last 11 days and it is helping. IF yesterday was 18:6.

01/22 - 145 - Starting the weekend at the top of my maintenance is not how I like to start it. I'm going to track food today and the rest of the weekend so I can try to maintain this weight and not bounce up even further.

GIVE ME 10 DAYS CHALLENGE 139
So in round 138, I unexpectedly reached the goal weight I specified back at the beginning of my first round, #127. So by rights, I should be switching to maintenance. BUT, since Round 139 ends exactly on January 31st and Round 140 will align perfectly with all the other 1-month challenges and am going to stay the course one more round and see what that brings. If nothing goes awry, then I will start maintenance with round and with all my challenge starting in sync, I hope to give some real thought to my February challenge goals and watch cause and effect.
Goal for 139 – See what happens. :P
Past Goals- Get under 150
- Get under 145 by my birthday (10/26)
- Get to pre-COVID weight from Feb 2020, 142.4
- Get under 140 before Thanksgiving 2020,
- Not gain over Thanksgiving,
- Get below 135
- Lose min 2 lb during December
- Walk/run to Sombrero B for sunrise photo
- Maintain losses of time in Florida
- Maintain weight for round 136 which included Xmas as well as New Years
- lost the 1 token pound in round 137, but is was what I hoped for, so all good, right?
- passed the -1 lb goal for round 138, and actually passed UGW of 129

History:
Round 137
SW: 160.8lbs and EW: 157.6
SW: 160.8 lbs
CW: 157.6 lbs
GW: 140
Comment: I've lost 22 lbs since November 2019 using the slow and steady way (also have been doing time-restricted eating since November 2019, too - aka - I have smaller eating windows and practice intermittent fasting).
Goals over the next 10 days:
(1) Strength train minimum of 3 days a week
(2) Eat more nutrient-dense foods instead of processed crap
(3) Stretch every day - as I get older, I have gotten quite stiff. I have focused on stretching for the past several months and can really tell a difference.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/22: 156.6 (met all 3 goals yesterday – today will be rough because I am in virtual class and virtual meetings all day – staring at the computer is rough, and I hope I don’t make bad food choices)

01/22 - 147.7 - Shocked since I didn't sleep well last night. Today we have errands to run for Fam. FamHub had appointments for his '86 to get an alignment (just rebuilt front end) and to pick up telephone poles for building material for some project on the land. No updates from them yet. Fasted 17.5hrs, drank 75oz water. Didn't sleep well at all so hopefully tonight I can rest easier.

Dedicated Stretching: 9/15 Daily incorporation: 21/3101/01 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓01/21 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - I debated considering my little stretch "dedicated" and decided it really wasn't enough by my definition to call it that. I did try, though, so its better than nothing. Couldn't quite get yoga done due to things popping up. About to do a quick practice now before BF wakes up to run these errands (8am appt for truck)
01/02 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓
01/03 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Managed a seated upper body dedicated stretch. Arms, shoulders, sides, back, and belly! Felt so good. Next - lower body (:
01/04 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Got to do two dedicated lower body stretches. Hammys stiff so did a little in morning and a little after dinner.
01/05 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Started a dedicated stretch but interrupted by BF when he realized dog was not in backyard. Did some jogging through the neighborhood in search of her, though!
01/06 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓
01/07 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Nearly forgot to add in daily stretching.... oops!
01/08 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Alright, my morning bed stretch went well. Managed a few upper body stretches through the day. Need to focus more on lower body. The hammies in particular. Will be the focus for today
01/09 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Planned to do yoga but BF got off work and wanted OUT of the house so I didn't get to it. He's still asleep so I'm about to go do some as soon as I hit "post" haha
01/10 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Did my yoga like I promised. Was really nice, actually. Also the weather got quite ick and my lovely screws weren't happy so did a heating pad and additional stretching to try to loosen things up and release pressure on my nerve.
01/11 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Need to do yoga and stop procrastinating. Dedicated time was short, but I managed it after dinner. Getting horrible about putting it off and then only getting short stretches in.
01/12 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Got my yoga in and then did legs and booty. Definitely need to stretch the quads today, woke up with jelly legs!
01/13 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Yoga yoga yoga. I don't know why I don't do it! Well, I do: I'm tired and lazy. But I always feel so much better after! Its the starting part that gets me... I did it yesterday, though I didn't want to and felt way better for it. Need to keep that in mind.
01/14 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Didn't get yoga in. Too many meetings first thing and didn't want to change back into workout clothes. Today I'm going to be gone half the day with the truck so not sure I'll get much in. Will try to do some dedicated stretching while the guy works on the truck, though.
01/15 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Was on the go first thing in the morning, no opportunity for a dedicated stretch. Unfortunately, no heat in the office so I was bundled up and frigid! I couldn't feel my toes by the time the guy was finished. Came home to shower since I caught a chill I couldn't shake and curled up in a blanket after.
01/16 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Did a lot of stretching while working yesterday. I needed to, body was soooooore. Today I will try to get a dedicated stretch in as I'm having some major DOMS.
01/17 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Did a bit of a dedicated stretch using the couch during the football game to help loosen these sore muscles. It felt phenomenal! I'm running out of days to meet my goal so I'm hoping this week I have a chance daily to get some yoga in daily. I set a lower goal in hopes that I'd beat it! At least I still have time to! Weekends are usually harder, but I still have 2 work weeks that are easier if I'll just get off my butt to do it
01/18 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - My yoga got interrupted by BF saying the Verizon store was open so he could go look at phones (researched online but he wanted something small so had to see in person to really compare size before purchase). Got a couple good stretches in though while out and about, though. Aiming for yoga this morning as soon as meetings allow me a long enough of a break.
01/19 - Dedicated: ✓, Daily: ✓ - Did a yoga for flexibility yesterday as I found it really is a nice stretch for my sore hammies. Still recovering from all the physical labor out at the land. Today I may repeat the same one for another, hopefully deeper, hammy stretch.
01/20 - Dedicated: x, Daily: ✓ - Today I'm doing yoga. No matter what. I have time in between work meetings so I know I can fit it in.

Keeping everything crossed for a successful transplant this time, having been in this situatuion last summer with our 6 month old grandson I know what you as a "bystander" are going through. Sending lots of positive hugs for your Godson, yourself and all his family. Please let us know how he progresses xx
How is your grandson doing now? Last I heard, he was coming along nicely. I hope that is still the case! Thanks for the positivity and hugs. Its certainly nerve-wracking but I know its also a life-saving measure which induces a touch of excitement. I'm an emotional mess with all these contradicting feelings flying about my head.3 -
@CamandJarvis I just saw this, so hopefully the surgery is well underway and going smoothly. I am praying for your godson and all who love him and the surgical/medical team that is working so hard for him. Keep us posted!
No update yet but I imagine mama and daddy have their hands full. Thank you for the prayers, it means the world to all of us.
Found out last time that the liver could be saved up to 48 hrs. When they called with the offer last night, the hospital had no current update when the liver was being removed from the donor (Rest in Paradise, thank you, whoever you are, for being kind and generous). They didn't tell us where the liver was being delivered from, either (this children's hospital is one of the rare ones that will fly anywhere in the country to retrieve an organ rather than within a certain radius) so depending on those factors, it'll push things out further, timeline wise. 8 -
