We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

3/3 120.0 No TMI x 2 or 3 days plus DH is driving me crazy. Golden Corral this afternoon. Right now I could NOT care less about food. UGH Taking neighbor to have first cataract surgery in an hour.
3/4 120.0 I am tired of food!
I’m going to try to make myself exercise 3 days per week. I have lots of exercise DVDs plus the computer. I also hope to get back to extended fasts from Tuesday PM to Thursday PM. Details one day late.

Comment:
I went to sleep wearing these old shorts of mine that I used to wear around 300~ lbs. They barely fit but I just needed something to sleep in. Last night I was walking around wearing them with no problem of keeping them on despite how large they were. This morning I woke up and the shorts were incapable of staying on. They just fall right off. I looked in the mirror and I looked the skinniest I've ever seen myself. I just feel so elated.10 -

Day/Weight/Comment
03/02 …..207.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/03 …..207.0 ….. Traveled yesterday afternoon and evening and I still show a drop. Some wise food choices while dining paid off. I am beginning to miss my Intermittent Fasting routine. It is impossible to practice this with the work crews here. I eat quickly in the morning before they get here so my sugar won’t drop while they are here. One man brings his wife and son every day who sit at my kitchen table. I won’t cook or eat in front of them so it makes it difficult. I am keeping some Premier Protein on hand in the fridge if they stay late and it gets bad. The real challenge is not to gorge myself with food when they all leave since I am so hungry. We all have our specific challenges and right now, that is mine. With very little breaks, the remodels of several areas will go on for months and months so planning is key. Temps have been warming up a touch but it is very unusual in March in my area. It has made everything sheets of ice and very dangerous. It is too early for spring so things will get cold and snowy again for a couple more months. It is just nice to see the sunshine.
03/04 …..208.4 ….. A severe glucose drop last night. I kept my cool pretty good. A bowl of cereal with milk very late night did not help my scale this morning, but it did fix the symptoms. Aiming for a well-balanced day today. Tomorrow is travel out-of-town for my appointment with attorney. Time to update my will. I haven’t made changes since my husband died 5 years ago. My children are all grown since I originally made my will which changes things. Also, with the recent sale of my two businesses, it really needs to be done. I will try to keep any luncheon choices reasonable.

03/01 – 11,051 Steps yesterday. The most steps in a very long time. Certainly the most since my retirement!
03/02 - 6,181 Steps yesterday. It was a busy day with the remodel. Full house.
03/03 - 4,937 Steps yesterday. Unexpected travel with lots of car rides. I keep my fitbit on my non-dominate wrist, not my ankle, so I know I actually got in over 10,000 with ALL the shopping. However, I had no time for any extra planned exercise yesterday so I am grateful for the steps in the big box stores.
03/04 - 6,589 It was a paperwork day. Not as much movement or as many steps as I would have liked.

Goals:
- 10K steps a day
- Eat healthy and balanced meals, limit snacking
- 8 cups of water

Overall GW: 118
Day - Weight - Comment
3/03 - 127.4 lbs - Completed 10K steps, 8+ cups of water, ate home made balanced meals. Shortness of sleep on night before made me sluggish and had to push myself to do 10K steps. Ate junk food at snack time - chips, sweets, hummus etc. Bad sleep affects me in more ways than one. Will ensure proper sleep and feed myself something substantial at evening time to avoid unhealthy snacking.
3/04 - 127.2 lbs - Completed 14K steps, 30 jump ropes, 8 cups of water, ate home made balanced meals. Ate planned snacks. Key observation is that I need good heavy late evening snacks to avoid going off the plan. Started jume ropes. Will like to increase the count and going wihout breaks to 100.

March focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:
2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 143- 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.

Round 142 (17): 128.2 to 125.8 (-2.4 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Reach my goal weight
3/3 - 125.4 - 1769 calories - Rough night with multiple wake ups from the kids, so I was really dragging this morning. Seeing the low weight on the scale was a nice pick-me-up! (Coffee helped too 😂) Got a 45 minute workout in on Ring Fit this morning and will do a 2 mile walk with the dog tonight.
3/4 - 125.8 - 2162 calories - Tough day yesterday. I was tired and not feeling well from lack of sleep; the kids were fussy and since it was cold and grey the only activity we did was making chocolate chip cookies... with predictable results. I didn’t completely binge, but I ate more of them than I should have. Today is a new day, and one maintenance day will not stop me. I just have to make sure it is just ONE this round.

SW 126.2 (April 14th, 2020)
Highest lifetime weight: 138 lbs. August 2011
Goal Weight: 110
Previous rounds: 125.2 -> 122.8 -> 121.6 -> 121.2 -> 119.8-> 119.4 -> 117.8 ->116.6 -> 117.2 ->117.2->114.8 ->116.8 -> 116.4 -> 114.0 -> 115 -> 115.4 ->115 ->113 -> 113-> 113.8 ->114.6 -> 113.6 -> 115.8-> 116 -> 115.6 -> 117.6 -> 115.8 ->118.2-> 117.4 ->116.6 -> 116.8 ->115.6 -> 116.6
Goal weight for this round: Maintain in the 115-117ish range.
03/03 116.6 Yesterday was a good day food wise, I just didn’t have time to post yesterday. Maintaining has been working well for me and allows me to have a splurge on the weekends while and eating with a manageable deficit during the week. Some days the deficit is more than others and I don’t stress if I eat at maintenance during the week.
This challenge will be interesting because it is during the time I hit my lowest weight for the month. It was great to see 114ish last week and maybe I’ll see it this round too?
I got some yoga in this morning for about 20ish minutes and plan on using the spin bike later today.

Last round ended lower than I started but my average stayed the same which isn't ideal. Going to treat March like its January!
OSW 88kg
RSW 62.4kg {2.6kg loss this year }
Average last round 62.9 kg
03/03 - 62.3 kg. A public holiday here so gym a bit later and a day sewing.
03/04 - 62.9kg. Hoping just a blip. Gym done.
03/05 - 62.6kg. Gym done and aerobics later today.

GW- 178lb
03/03 - 219lb No loss but stuck to my calorie goal yesterday despite succumbing to staff table treats. Didn’t eat an obscene amount, but need to stay away in future! Planning a first run post-Covid today which should be ‘interesting’
03/04 -218.2lb. That’s 5 pounds gone in 10 days. Real NSV last night, had a majorly stressful day at work which would usually have me reaching for the wine and rubbish food. Instead as soon as I got in I went for a run and made myself a healthy meal. Feel much better for it this morning.
03/05 -219.6lb. Muscles feel very sore this morning from the sudden increase in exercise, calories have been accurately recorded so I know this is likely to be water retention. Plan for today is to get through Friday without making poor food choices. Just because it’s Friday, doesn’t mean I ‘deserve’ a treat.

Round Goals:
Weigh-in every Morning
6000+ steps per day
Track meals and snacks
03/03 - 318.6lbs / off to the races. Starting to track meals again. Easy to start but difficult to maintain. Will keep up as best I can. Was able to put in a 3 mile walk to meet the step goal and trying to add some strength workouts into the routine. Might be a lot at once, but will pivot down the road if needed.
03/04 - 317.6 / Off to a good start (gotta love weight fluctuating)! I went with a tostada for lunch, but probably could've made a healthier choice with more greens. I was able to compete a 5.5 mile walk, which I try to do our more every other day, so that helped to balance the calories out. I didn't get in the strength routine today, so I will try to change strategies and do it first thing in the morning. Hopefully that will allow me to build a routine. Tomorrow is an early birthday dinner with family, so probably not going to be a good day calorically. I will make adjustments during the day to account for the evening, but will setup a plan to regain ground on Saturday.

March challenge – average steps for the last 10 days = 21,566, this has been slewed by a couple of particularly high days ( I normally aim for 19K steps ), during the challenge I aim to do an additional 5% which is a daily total of 23,723 – I'll do my best !!
03/01 21,157
03/02 26,594 - made a conservative effort to do more steps after a walking reckie to check how long it takes to walk to the vaccination centre.
03/03 24,433 – walked to & from vaccination centre, was on feet through whole of session & kept walking during “slack” period.
03/04 24,358
Rolling average for March 24,135

Day/Weight/Comment
03/03: 55,30 - wow, so this jump is crazy. The past days were full of eating mostly on track and walking more than usual ( I normally don't get over 5k steps, I don't know how you all do so many!), so that definitely played a huge role. I also gave me quite the confidence boost, that maybe getting to my UGW might actually be possible. Lets see what the next 10 days bring.
03/04: 55,15 - seeing the 5 as a second digit is still really mind-blowing for me! There is a drop again, which I am quite proud of! Yesterday I however did something stupid: Apart from a small breakfast porridge I didn't eat anything all day. Partly because I was not hungry, partly because I was so busy. And then in the evening I totally went over board, not tracking, eating way past the point of satisfaction. Due to the lack of calories during the day that apparently didn't change my overall weight. But I think it is such an unhealthy way of depriving myself of nutrients for so long, so I do not want to go down that road further. For today I have pre-logged lots of healthy, filling stuff for my body.
03/05 55,25 - a little rise, but still about the same. Yesterday evening I definitely went overboard calorie wise. But it was still okay, because due to an super active day I just needed more food. I also showed up for my goal from the day before and ate lots of healthy stuff - even my evening 'binge' was quite healthy. Today I am to meet a friend for a walk and get a local popular pastry to-go. That will definitely have some influence on the scale, but I am trying to plan around it. My biggest worry right now: Staying at my current weight for a couple of days, getting demotivated ('You will never reach your end goal, its just not possible), and then binging for two days straight. So therefore my new mantra: Maintaining my current weight is already an amazing step in the right direction!

Day/Weight/Comment
03/03 - 200.4. Getting below 200 is an important milestone for me. It means I'll have lost all my lockdown weight. Yesterday was a decent day in terms of food (mainly because I forgot to eat rather than making good choices though) but have been really inactive this week.
03/04 - 200.6. I'm a bit all over the place this week for some reason. Managing to keep my calories down, but just can't motivate myself to get out for walks. Might be that the weather has been a bit rubbish after a few days of lovely Spring sunshine.
03/05 - 199.8. Finally below 200 - even if only just about and maybe briefly.

Day/Weight/Comment
03/03 - 172.2 Spent 6 hours in the car yesterday getting to/from/waiting for my second vaccine. Feel just fine today with no side effects except a bit of soreness in my arm. Worth it! I did give in to a bad-for-me treat along the way though. Even though I was riding that long, I still made myself get in my steps for the day by riding my bike before I went and walking afterward so that’s a plus. I wouldn’t have done that extra probably if I weren’t tracking steps right now. Already have my salad with shrimp topper packed for lunch.
03/04 -172 Good food day yesterday, so was expecting more of a drop than this, but I’ll take it. Getting better at getting in steps throughout the day in additions to my outdoor walks. Walked 3.63 miles at work.
03/05 -171.6 Tracked everything and stayed below calorie goal. Walked twice and rode my bike morning and evening. Traveling to Dad’s today so scales will be different tomorrow and Sunday.

Personal exercise goals for March:
Average 10,000 steps a day
Walk or ride 150 milesWhen I count miles walked, it is just those that are purposeful. I don’t use my watch “total miles for the day” number—just, when I go out for a walk, I log that. That’s why I’m working on my overall step count this month. I’m interested to see what effect getting in more steps throughout the day has on my TDEE number I can track in my watch/phone. Think I’ll add that to these numbers just so I have an easy record. I think that might be important long term, and I’ve never paid much attention to it. So, I think I might gain some insight this month by tracking all of this. Fingers crossed!Average Steps: 12,769
(AVERAGE TDEE from February was 2358)
3/1–-11,941 steps; 1.79 miles; 2392 TDEE
