    JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 141 (round 73 for me ) I''ve proved 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 maintanace starts and dare I say it is in my sights?

    Challenge for this round – get back into and stay in 120's? 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! Run 4 x during the 10 days.


    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.

    02/10 132.4 – 7.93 miles walked yesterday. Not proud of this weight, relaxed and let things slip; 2.2 pound increase from end of last round and that was after seeing the figure that I wanted to be on the very first day of the round! Oh well, no point in dwelling too much on it, I'm moving on, today will effect the start of the new round, that's what I'm concentrating on right now.

    SW: 132.4
    GW: <130

    Day/Weight/Comment
    02/11 131.6 – a good start to the round, ate really healthily yesterday, aim to keep the momentum going for this 10 days. 9.2 miles walked yesterday; again in the light snow. Another cold day here -4C at the moment brrrh!! was hoping for a run this morning, but will have to see what the pavements are like later.
    02/12 130.8 – 9.48 miles yesterday including 27 mins run. Another good food day & it shows on the scales. Keeping end of last round post in this rounds post to remind myself how I felt on that last day weigh in!

    02/13 130.8 - 10.99 miles walked locally from home (as always during lockdown) yesterday. Cooked Chinese New Year meal; prawns on sesame ryvita to start, duck leg in hoisin sauce with black bean veggie stir fry for main washed down with a glass of Rosé & all within calories.
    02/14 130.8 – 11.46 miles walked yesterday all in below zero C temps! ; 5 miles or so in I turned my ankle on a frozen rut whilst crossing a field, no pain no discomfort I carried on for another 6 or 7 miles incident free. However, later in the afternoon whilst watching the rugby the ankle began to ache, gradually getting worse as the day went on and by evening I could not bear any weight on it at all & the intense pain! DH had to prepare and serve tea! I didn't want to take painkillers as I am giving blood in a few days, just elevated it and very gently wiggled it a little. It was a little better before bed, but got up this morning and it is almost back to normal!! Can't believe it really ….. I'm going to avoid running for a good few days but will try out a gentle walk later this morning.
    02/15 130 - 9.41 miles walked yesterday, the ankle held up so we just kept walking till the rain came!! Despite a home cooked delicious 3 course Valentine Sunday roast kept within calories.
    02/16 130.6 – 9.97 miles walked yesterday.

    02/13 – the birds yesterday morning started inspecting our nesting boxes, I really love nature – spring really is round the corner. Bring it on!!

    Day/Weight/Comment

    02/11 - 146
    02/12 - 146.5 - OK, it's time to get serious about getting back down to maintenance weight. I pulled out the food scale this morning and I'm logging everything. After 3 years of daily weighing and losing/maintaining my weight, you would think I would have it down by now, but the reality is that without using the food diary and the food scale, I give myself too much leeway in the amount and what I eat. That works fine when I weigh 142 or 143, but not when I'm trying to lose several pounds.
    02/13 - 145.5 - I came home from work last night and my newly retired husband had made spinach lasagna and homemade garlic bread. I measured out enough to stay below maintenance calories, but I won't be surprised if the sodium and carbs hit tomorrow. Plenty of water today!
    02/14 - 144.5 - I don't trust this number, but I'll take it!
    02/15 - 146.5 - More carbs and sodium yesterday, so this is not a surprise. I'll probably leave the office a little early today to beat the winter storm heading our way. I hope everyone else stays safe over the next day.
    02/16 - 146 - The scale flashed between 145 and 146, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

    R140 - 168.8
    R141 - Last full round before heading to FL for a month with no scale. Need to plan how to stay on track and continue to make progress without a scale in our condo--BUT with a beach across the street. Round 140 was eye-opening as to how quickly progress can rebound.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    02/11 - 169.4 I don't mind pops-&-drops, but I gotta get a handle on this scale creep. At least it is early in the round. 9 more days to figure it out.
    02/12 -169.5
    02/13 -167.7 persistent attack after the SuperBowl splurge finally paid off.
    02/14 - 168.3 may all your hearts be happy today!
    02/15 - 168.9 feeling bloated and mean. Several possible explanations for the pop, but I choose sodium. Ate lunch at a newly opened restaurant in our little town. (It was so good!) Only ate 1/2 a reg size Rueben, a few of my daughter's fries and the hub's green beans. Wish I could have logged to see to impact but impossible to really know for sure when someone else cooks. Plan to pound water today in hopes for a just as large drop tomorrow.
    02/16 - 168.1 Feels like 167.9 ;)
