Just Give Me 10 Days ~ Round 139

SModa61 · January 2021

Yesterday, had my annual physical and each year I bring a sheet of typed notes for PCP. At the top is always my morning naked weight (hate weighing mid-day in jeans at the their office), and this time I also included a side note about my September 2020 weight. Her comment was "well you took care of that COVID weight".

@quiltingjaine She did offer me all the bloodwork I hoped for. Now I just need to figure out which day to do as it is a fasting test. Need to verify the times that labs are currently open and make it work.

Day, Weight, Comment
1/22 – 204.4 -- 16,555 steps, 40 min aerobics yesterday. Started my TOM so hopefully this slight drop is not temporary. Focus today on controlling portions and being mindful of my eating (as usual!). We’re supposed to have a bunch of snow coming, so trying to get lots of steps in before walking close to home becomes more difficult and work starts back up in full swing next week.

Day/Comment

1/22 - met goals, although my walk was short
Not tracking is weird after 6 years of doing it religiously, and of course my internal calculator has a pretty good sense of my calories & macros, but I’m not dwelling on the numbers, at least through this round. My daily mindful eating meditation class is making me very aware of what I’m eating and also how. DH is a “shoveler” and when I married him, I started eating faster so I wouldn’t still be eating 15 minutes after he finished. I’m working on getting back to eating slowly and savoring what I eat, even if I’m the last one finished! This morning I couldn’t finish my yogurt because I’d given myself time to realize I was full. I’m also looking at ways to cozy up all the rooms I spend time in, thinking I’ll find more comfort in my surroundings rather than in too much food too often.

Day/Weight/Comment

1/22 = 132.2 Ordered a single-serve NutriBullet yesterday with gift certificate I received from work. I only have one smoothie recipe (frozen strawberries+yogurt+milk) , so any recipe/website/book suggestions would be appreciated! I am good at following directions, but not so good at just "throwing things together" when it comes to food. Maybe it will come with recipes, who knows. I'm hoping this will be a way to get a healthy breakfast in---or at least a step in the right direction...plus to be perfectly honest it looked like fun and I do love gadgets:)

Round 139

SW: 145, GW: 125

Round 138 (first round!): 134.6 to 129.8 (-4.8lbs)

Goals for this round:
-at least 8 glasses of water daily
-pre-track as much as possible...and stick to it
-move at least 30 minutes a day
-asleep by 10:30!

01/22 - 130.8. I tried out a couple new recipes yesterday, which means more opportunities to "sample"...which would be fine, except for when it happens after I've officially finished eating/tracking for the day! An additional goal for this round (this is for my benefit, as I tend to forget): no new recipes that require testing/sampling!
Stairs, walking, free weights, and an online Zumba class yesterday. I'm not used to having so much energy! Definitely a NSV!

@SModa61 I have read that extended fasting can lead to higher cholesterol readings. After my last labs, I believe it. 14 hour fast (draw was 7:15AM) were some of my highest in the last 3 years. I need to schedule later and fast shorter! 8 hours instead of longer than 12!
