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.
3/5 - 125.6 - 1701 calories - Much better day yesterday! Stuck hard to my calories and even played some Beat Saber so my deficit was a little higher than usual. We ordered takeout for dinner, and while I was careful to be reasonable with calories I’m sure the sodium was still sky-high. It might hit the scale in the next day or two.
3/6 - 125.4 - 1758 calories - Started feeling really bloated and uncomfortable last night right before dinner - not sure what I ate that caused it. Going for a walk and drinking a bunch of water helped, but I was still feeling it this morning. The day kind of got away from me which is why this post is so late. Got the groceries and my plan is all set for meal prep tomorrow.
3/7 - DNW - 1731 calories - Scale died this morning, just showing “Low” instead of a number. I’ve ordered a new battery and will pick it up today. I’m also all set to meal prep today - making chocolate banana overnight oats, asparagus bacon cheddar egg muffins and chicken chimichanga filling for this week as well as some lasagnas, marinated flank steaks and breakfast burritos to freeze.
3/8 - 125.8 - 1718 calories - Hoping this is hormonal variation, because I can’t think of another reason for the scale increase. I’ve been on track the past few days on calories, macros and workouts. I look forward to new Apple Fitness + workouts each Monday, and did a fun HIIT one this morning. I’ve just got to keep pushing forward and hopefully see a drop before the end of the round.

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!
3/5 119.5 Well that’s a little better.
3/6 118.5
3/7 118.5
3/8 119.0 Yesterday we went to Roberto’s Taco Shop and had a breakfast burrito egg, bacon, cheese on the world’s largest and thinnest tortilla. It really wasn’t that good. Last night was a rough night. Mentally kicking myself until 2AM. Today going to lunch with neighbors. UGH.
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.
3/2 4493 steps about double a “normal” day
3/3 3679 steps, not bad considering we spent over 4 hours sitting in the car, waiting due to someone else’s surgery having problems.
3/4 3338 steps, neighbor was feeling draggy and wasn’t sure she could do it. Really sucking in her O2.
3/5 4492 steps, neighbor still a bit draggy but we went around a slightly larger block. We will try to walk twice today.
3/6 Temp was glorious yesterday but neighbor deemed it too windy to walk.
3/7 5228 I don’t mind walking in Walmart. Neighbor walked in the casino and came home +$200.4 -

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.
03/05 …..208.4 ….. Small quantities but bad choices. Another glucose drop last night. This one was the type that makes you feel drunk. Woozy, unsteady on feet. Strange foot to floor sensations. Clouded thinking and judgement. High fall risk, must hold on to things because of staggering. Not as fast coming on as the feeding frenzy kind but something that has to be dealt with. Very cloudy vision. Strange thinking. Drunk is the only way I can describe it. This shows how out of shape my diet is (when too low calorie or carb puts me in this state). My body doesn’t want the (healthy) change. I will take it slow. Traveling today to work on having my will & trust updated along with some other legal matters. Lunch will be out-of-town. Everything is challenging right now.
03/06 …..208.4 ….. Went to my appointment yesterday to begin the process of updating my Will, my Trust, my Power-of-Attorney and my Advanced Directive. I was given some homework and my next appointment is March 17th. My luncheon out was light, I ate half and finished the other half for dinner. Bad snacks last night but my scale is steady. No glucose drops. I hope the lunch doesn’t creep up later in the week on the scale, as sometimes happens. I will try to keep it light today. I took my truck yesterday so I could get my new bathtub from Home Depot. That means one less out-of-town trip this month. A blessing for my waistline?
03/07 …..207.6 ….. That is more like it! There will be a family meeting today with my children in regards to my Will & Trust. It is part of my homework. We will have pizza takeout. The meeting is this evening. It will be impossible to cook anything major because my work crew is epected today (thus the meeting this evening after they leave.) I’ll be kicking the crew out by 5:00 so my meeting can be held at the kitchen table. This is a difficult meeting and moment for me. I don’t have much time or opportunity to eat during the day because of the remodel and work crew (just breakfast), so I will not be able to stress eat. That will help save the calories for dinner. In saying that, it reminds me that I do miss intermittent fasting. However, since I have to eat breakfast it makes it pretty impossible to fast. Sometimes the workers do not leave until 10 or 11 at night and as a diabetic, I could never fast that long (nearly 24 hours?). Doing my best with what I can, just like everyone else. Yes, we are all in a different boat, but we are in our boats together!
03/08 …..208.2 ….. This is how pizza looks on me. I kept my meal small but high calorie and high carbs combined foods are a ticking time bomb. I will try to be extra careful today though I must tiptoe around glucose drops which have plagued me again lately. I will work on the right balance today so I can stick to plan.

03/12 …..xxxxx …..
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.
03/05 - 4,276. Another paperwork day as I prepped for my attorney appointment today for my will & trust (and other matters). Travel today will bring light steps for tomorrow also.
03/06 - 7,489 Traveled but still got in some steps.
03/07 – 6,827 Steps. I should have tried harder. I probably could have gotten more in. I have been doing some planned stairs in the house though.
03/08 - 7,092 Steps. I had a sit-down meeting last night so getting more steps in was impossible. I am shocked, actually, that I got in this many!5 -
SW- 223.2lb
CW- 219lb
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.
03/06 - 219.2lb. Muscles still very sore, but going to do a long walk today; drink plenty of water and choose healthy options all day. I feel really motivated at the moment.
03/07 -219.6lb. Was hoping to see the scale go down rather than up. However, I am not too fussed as I know that I have been sticking to my calories and getting some exercise in. Will only be a matter of time before it falls again.
03/08 - 218.5lb. Great to see the numbers fall, hope it continues for a couple more days. Quite low on my calories yesterday but high in fat (lamb fatoush to blame). Back to work properly today, got to make sure I combat stress with healthy alternatives and not to reach for the wine and unhealthy snacky food.

03/08 - 145.5 - OK, today my husband starts his chemo/immunotherapy for his cancer. Last week his mother died from covid related brain damage. My weight is not the most important factor in my life right now, but I am trying to stop myself from eating my emotions. Just like when I quit smoking, that piece of chocolate is NOT going to solve any problems. However, if my husband wants comfort food, he is getting comfort food and I just try to abstain.

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 !!

@jaccimc63 I understand what you are about to go through. My husband has non-Hodgkins lymphoma and we endured and eventually completed chemo a couple years ago. It doesn't feel like it right now, but you will make it through the chemo and other treatments. Hugs to you both in the meantime.
I can tell you that when hubby got to where he didn't really want anything to eat, I found two things that worked for him: homemade chicken noodle soup with lots of noodles and rotisserie chicken (I buy the packages of already pulled rotisserie chicken at Costco so it is easy to make), and fruit smoothies from Tropical Smoothie to which I had them add whatever their best tasting protein powder was. He enjoyed both of those things when food held no appeal to him and they helped keep his strength up.
I'll be praying for you both. Take it one day at a time and keep your head up! This too shall pass!3 -

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.
03/06 -DNW No scales at Dad’s house anymore. Not sure what happened to them. Didn’t want to ask. Too much time in the car yesterday.
03/07 - DNW Dad always wants a chocolate milkshake from Cookout when I visit, so I always have one with him. It’s tradition, and I will continue to keep it as long as I can.
03/08 -172.8 Back to work on the basics this morning! Can I eek out a small loss still this round? Time will tell.
03/09 -172.0 Enjoying the lovely weather and spending time outside. Got in a nice walk at lunch and some gardening time after work. Then rode my bike after dinner.

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 tracked by GPS. 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: 11,151
(AVERAGE TDEE from February was 2358)
3/1–-11,941 steps; 1.79 miles; 2392 TDEE
3/2–-12,527 steps; 3.15 miles; 2449 TDEE
3/3— 11,024 steps; 1.53 miles walked, 4.76 miles biked; 2527 TDEE
