Just Give Me 10 Days ~ Round 139

quiltingjaine · January 2021

@musicsax I love PICTURES of snow but don’t miss the “real thing” at all after living in Colorado for over 30 years. Today we have a “winter weather advisory” and possibility of snow around us but our temperature is supposed to hover in the mid to low 40s all day. And the wind is howling! I love Las Vegas!

@UTMom81 I hope you haven’t acquired the virus! Tennessee is a hotspot right now, I hear.

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.

1/23 - met goals
Yesterday was good. Today is very cold, but cozy inside, so all good. Enjoy your Saturday!

1/24 - met goals
DH wanted the lunch special from our fav Italian carry out yesterday, so I ordered house salad and minestrone— very satisfying, and enough salad that I split it between lunch and dinner. Excellent. I’m making no-bread salmon patties tonight — yummy! Not weighing and tracking is weird, but I think I’m doing pretty well (though I’m curious about the numbers, of course!) and will stick it out for the next week. Then I’ll see. Enjoy your day!

1/25 - meditated 30 min.
Ugh — ate too much yesterday. Too many morning carbs always encourage me to overeat later. This morning DH wanted French toast, so I had one piece instead of two and cooked the remaining egg mix into a mini omelette for myself. Good compromise, I think. The weather isn’t bad this morning, so I’m off for a walk before the snow and ice hit around noon. Whee!

I’m hoping to stay below 205 PERMANENTLY (but not counting on it!). Focusing on being mindful of what I’m eating, avoiding mindless snacking, eating standing at the counter, cupboard, fridge, or table (as usual!).

I love beagles! Their faces are so cute!

I don’t want to sound negative but in print, I think this will. Please know that it is not intended as anything but support. You said you’re not counting on being below 205 permanently. I think you SHOULD count on it. It may not happen this week or this month or next but if you “follow your focus” you WILL get below. And it WILL be PERMANENT! COUNT ON IT! YOU CAN DO IT! 😘

It's Burn's night so I have got haggis for dinner; we're not Scottish, but being in lockdown everyday is Groundhog day so I thought I'd make an effort to do something different. There'll be no pipping in the haggis, but we might stretch to a small nip of whiskey!! We don't normally participate in alcohol in the week so this will be an exception!

Gorgeous photos!

My ma was born in Kilsythe, and although we never had haggis on Burns’ Night, we did have tatties and neeps, and our friend Bob always showed up later with his pipes for a wee dram. 😁
And, of course, my mom always said the Selkirk Grace.

Some hae meat and canna eat,
And some wad eat that want it,
But we hae meat and we can eat,
And sae the Lord be thankit.

Enjoy!

@CamandJarvis So happy for your godson progress.

To all those who were concerned, I am working on a plan to keep myself safe. I became complacent about some things, however , now that I am aware that he cannot behave I have a plan of action. I am ok, just busy. Besides I want my current weight loss to be non-stress related weight loss.

***Not weighing in every day, it's just not good for my mental health to see the fluctuations. Will weigh on each Monday and at end of challenge.***

1/22 – Good morning everyone! The scale was not my friend this morning so I’m ignoring it until my official weigh in on Monday. Today is a workout day and I’ve already got my protein planned out. I hope you all have a fantastic, successful day!

1/25 – 135.6 Well, that’s not the right direction. I slacked the last week and will just have to face the consequences. I’m ready to get right back on track this morning. 3 workouts this week, tracking everything, hitting protein goal. That’s my mantra this week.

Round 139

Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 130.2
GW: 125

GW for this round: 128.5

Round 135 (10): 136.6 to 133.6 (-3.0 lbs)
Round 136 (11): 133.6 to 133.2 (-0.4 lbs)
Round 137 (12): 133.2 to 131.8 (-1.4 lbs)
Round 138 (13): 131.8 to 130.2 (-1.6 lbs)

Goals for this round:

- Finish the beginner plank challenge
- Complete my Apple Fitness challenge for January: Earn a total of 25,900 Move calories this month.
- Get below 129 lbs

1/22 - 130.2 - Starting this round at the same weight as the end of the last one. I’m happy that the drop held, but we’ll see about tomorrow. Friday is our family movie night and I’ve budgeted calories for popcorn and a drink, but it will still be a sodium hit. I did 45 minutes of cardio this morning and about 10 minutes of weights - I meant to do 20 but the kids needed me and I didn’t get back to it. I’ll just have to fit it in tomorrow.

1/23 - DNW - Not a great day yesterday. I don’t know the final calorie total, but I definitely indulged in too many snacks and sweets on top of the popcorn. Chocolate is my big weakness - once I have any I start craving more and then I start justifying to myself why “one more” is ok. Well, the damage is done and today is a new day. I’m not facing the scale until tomorrow though. I still got some exercise in this morning despite the kids getting up early, and just snuck in my plank while they had lunch.

1/24 - 130.8

1/25 - 129.6 - I’m sorry I didn’t get around to checking in yesterday! It turned into a crazy day where I didn’t get to exercise until the afternoon, so my morning weight was higher than usual. Our not-quite-two year old tried to climb out of the crib twice on Saturday, so yesterday we converted the crib to a toddler bed. Now I’m not likely to get any sleep for the foreseeable future as we try and get him to understand he has to STAY in bed at night. Oh, an he’s waking up at 5 AM, which makes my usual “get up at 6 and exercise before he wakes up” kinda problematic. Hopefully things will settle into a new routine soon.

Well I didn't get under 170 last round, so that is still my goal for this round. Really looking forward to getting into the 160's again, lol.

01/22 - 171.7 I'll take it.

01/23 - 171.7 I think. It was somewhere around that number. I should have written it done, but we remodeled the downstairs bathroom and worked most of the day on that. Never had a chance to even think, much less write my weight down.

01/24 - DNW - Once again woke up and left the house right away to run a couple of errands. When I got home we had already stopped and had breakfast so just took the day off from weighing.

01/25 - 172.8 - not bad for a Monday especially with how busy my weekend was. I didn't make some of the best choices, so happy with this. Back on track today and will probably have to work in the office all week, so it will be easier not to cheat.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/21 …..205.4 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
01/22 …..205.2 ….. I am inviting my friend over tonight (the one that always brings me high calorie foods without notice) for dinner. I am making low calorie / low carb shish-kabobs. This time it’s MY choice for the menu lol. My friend is a friend of 20 years. He is male and can eat things without gaining which just isn’t true for this female post-menopausal body! No matter how many times I tell him, he just doesn’t get it. Anyway, I hope to dip into the 204’s by tomorrow or the next day. Persisting……..

01/23 …..206.2 ….. A wonderful low cal/carb dinner with my friend. Then, late night pop-tarts with milk. Just don’t do it folks!

01/24 …..206.2 ….. Drats! Tired today. Slept 3 hours 47 minutes.

01/25 …..208.2 ….. An unfair weight for what I ate but I had little to no movement yesterday. A very restful day. Back on track today is my hope. Shocking scale has awaken me!

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:

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.

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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!
