Round 142
Please join us! Starting on 03/02 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 142
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

Again thank you for this challenge. It helps to keep the momentum up. I'm 46, been feeling horrible about myself. On January 4 this year, I said I need to stop it. Weighed at 193.4( highest ever). I'm tall 5'10. I felt like a line backer. Currently weigh at 179.8.. yes, finally in 170sππ. I'm hoping I can lose 4-5 lbs in the next 10 days. My goal is to lose 10 lbs each month. However, as long as it's creeping slowly down, it's better than going back up. I was always thin. In your forties it's soo much harder. I would like to get down to 150. We shall see. I'm looking for friends too along this journey in the same boat. Let's cheer each other on. We got thisπ
Currently trying to exercise more, Get steps in, yoga, intermittent fasting mixed with 310 shakes, and calorie counting.

Busy, Busy + not enough sleep will probably result in an uptick at the start of this round but I'm committed to getting back on track and crushing it by the end!
CW: 182.5 / 82.8
Next goal: Lose 6lbs by St Patrick's Day Challenge
Aims: Focus on sleep- Try to sleep 5 hours a night - time it.
02/20 = 82.5
02/21 = 82.8
So many snacks while half asleep yesterday that I couldn't even remember them all *sigh*
A disturbed five hours of sleep last night but that's better than the last few days.
Still, this used to be my normal every day, Baby Steps.

Goals for this round:
- No excuses - ONE maintenance day (having our pod-family over tomorrow for a mini-party for my son). I will keep a calorie deficit all other days this round.
- Addendum to the first goal: improve my calorie tracking and weighing. No more fudging and estimating or leaving anything off.
- Add an evening snack to my meal plan to prevent late-night binges.
I let things slip too much last round. Time to refocus and push forward to reach my goal.

Maintenance observations to date. I formally began βmaintenanceβ on Feb 1 which also happened to be a date on which all four challenges, in which I participate, were aligned. A nice way to start IMO if wanting to easily study results/data. Today is the end of two rounds of the GM10D challenge so a good time to assess.
My first step in maintaining has been to add a simple pure additional calorie number of 200 calories to my already slightly raised daily calories of 1480, and see how that works and adjust as data comes in. In the Ultimate Accountability Challenge group, I keep running info that relates more to CICO and in the Give me 10 days challenge my weights are documented. During rounds 140 and 141 of GM10D, I lost 2 lb and .2 lb respectively, which, from a maintenance point of view, a loss is not a success. BUT, when I evaluate my apple watch TDEE vs daily calories from the UAC data, that math indicates that I should have lost 2.4 lbs. So, over the time period of two GM10D rounds the calculated and actual weight changes pretty well βmatchβ each other IMO, even though the timing of the weight changes are not aligned exacting with CICO.
BUT, because the round 141 results essentially show a βnet zeroβ, I need to assess which is more accurate, the results of each single round or the results of the combined rounds. Are there other factors that that I am unknowingly not taking into account? Because of that, for at least the short run of the next couple days, I will continue with my daily calories of 1680. If my weight holds, then that is the right choice. If I get the whoosh that I believe I am sensing, then I need to add some additional calories. Next increment, if added, would likely be another 50 calories.
Thought I would share my thought processes in the event it is of any use to other members.
(Note: yes, I am cross posting this so unfortunately some of you may see this post twice)

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 142 (round 74 for me ) I''ve proved I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @GrandmaJackie you so enrich so many of our lives by keeping the challenge going.
Female age 62 5' 4β - 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 β I'm working at it β 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 (same as last !) β 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 β 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 β its here and inoculation has started! Take it when offered.End of round 69 134.2 lbs

02/20 131 β 11.26 miles walked yesterday, including 19 mins jogging β again I really struggled as legs fellt like lead! Well within calorires. Not too bad a round, 1.4 pounds lost - would have liked to have got back into 130s, but almost there and will perservere, as I've said previously it's a lifestyle & not a sprint so I'll keep on. See you in the next round.
