SW:299.6 (4/20/21)
Goal Weight: 180
Goal Weight Round 155: 262

Round 154 ending: 266.3 (-8.6)

7/1 - 265.4 Still not sure what's going on with this downward trend. Weighed on 2 scales and had a 2 lbs difference today so I just went with first weight I took on my expensive "smart" scale. Never thought I'd want to have a flat two days but I need that right now just to know my scales aren't completely broken lol. Started a workout this morning but started coughing like crazy and didn't want to wake up my wife so will re-start tonight.
7/2 - 265.9 Alright, I went up this morning so I feel good that my scale works because I drank a ton of water yesterday. Underrated - Propel Water. Worked out last night, not this morning. Will get a workout in tonight and then landscaping all weekend. Probably fit a pilates and yoga class in each day just to keep moving.
7/3 - 265
7/4 - 265
7/5 - 265
7/6 - 267.6 I mean... alright. 3 days where the scale says the exact same weight followed by a 2.6 pound increase after our BBQ. I don't know. Feeling dejected lately. Body just keeps fighting me on this. Shoulder still in pain and battled a cold all weekend. Bad start to the week.
7/7 - 263 I don't even know what to say anymore. I'm going to have to start bringing my scale out to the kitchen to weigh in. Our bathroom is smooth but something is definitely up. Granted, I ran 2 miles this morning and 2 miles last night and am probably under-hydrated but a 4.6 lbs swing? So annoying. My cheaper scale showed 265.8 but I haven't used that scale for any other weight so I don't want to start now. I don't trust anything right now. Anyway, I've never run 2 miles straight in my life before today and I did just over 20 minutes.
7/8 - 264.1 Did not workout this morning so a water difference for sure. Nothing inspirational or demotivational today just really tired. Going to run tonight and then have a great weekend!

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

Good to be back with you all for another ten days.

7/2: 208.4
It is amazing what happens when I skip both big two in one day. Sugar and Salt. Now for the three day weekend

7/3: 210.2
Salt. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Oh, it’s 210.2!

7/4: 211.4
7/5: DNW
7/6: 210.2
Big weekend of the BIG TWO. Spent most of yesterday on my fishing boat (the Kraken) which is a wonderful combination of constant movements and no-time-for-eating.

I named my boat the Kraken because she is old, ugly, and ornery. She decided to make my trolling motor unavailable yesterday. So, we compromised and still hauled a few bass over the gunwale. We do not eat bass, so they were tossed right back over.

7/7: 208.4
This was helped along by a spinning session at the gym last night.

7/8: 210.0
There is only one way to explain this, and it would be TMI. Let’ just say I didn’t gain any flesh and bone since yesterday. I have been a good boy. 😊

jemtred · July 2021

Gained last round, and average increased slightly. Need to start the downward trend so I'm recommitting to tracking. Let's get it off this round!

OSW 88 KG
RSW 64 Kg
Average last round 63.4 kg

7/1 - 64.2kg. Hoping this is the end of the upward trend. Getting serious now. Gym done
7/2 - 63.6kg. It's amazing what a renewed focus will do! Now to keep it up over the weekend. Gym done.
7/3 - 63.0kg..very pleased. No slip ups now
7/4 - 63.3kg...focus!
7/5 - 63.5kg...that's less than Friday so I'm counting a win. Gym done
7/6 - 63.1kg Independence Day here so a nice public holiday. Gym done at 7 instead of 5 but I prefer the early slot.
7/7 - 62.9kg kg. Nice gym session done.

7/8 - 63.1kg. No problem. No gym this am as I had to go for a covid test which is negative and I've done the isolation so I'll be back in tomorrow.

However yesterday my sister brought home mini ice cream sandwiches. I did have one. I tried to split it with my son but he’s like me and thinks it’s too cold. No guilt though it was 90 degree yesterday. I have been mindful about what I am eating

@starrjulia8 I had to chuckle at “it was 90 degrees” because when I got up at 7:30 this morning it was already 96, 2 hours later 102 degrees! I believe a vat of ice cream to SIT IN might be in order this afternoon! Although it’s only supposed to be 114 this afternoon. A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE DESERT!
Hopefully a picture of the quail is on this post. They were walking under my sewing room window. I don’t know what I have done!

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.

7/4 115.5 Happy Independence Day USA 🇺🇸 We had a wonderful time at the races🏁. I ate a hot dog 🌭 and bun so my carbs were almost double my daily limit but it’s okay. Ate all the salt that came off my friends soft pretzel plus pink salt at home and didn’t have nearly enough water. $4/20 oz bottle=racetrack robbery! Wonderful fireworks 💥 🎇 🎆
7/5 114.5
7/6 115.5 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ maybe because of the vodka or not enough water? Under all macros for the day - we’ll see what tomorrow brings. The dessert I made was awesome, if I do say so myself! https://lowcarbyum.com/cheesecake-salad/
7/7 115.0 Drank more water, increased my magnesium and woke up several times during the night with foot cramps. I need to remember SALT.
7/8 115.5 Water fitness yesterday and DD#2 came. It was fun. I was tired last night and slept well - over 8 hours! Trumpets blare!!! That’s a switch!

Told me I couldn’t post in this category but then it did. WTF? Round 156 is posted without a pretty graphic because after trying for over an hour, I was/am totally frustrated!

My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of a heavier weight, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

Day/Moving Average Weight/7-day Calorie Ave/Comment

7/1 - 187 - 1762
Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 🍁 🦫 I’ve always thought of myself as half Canadian. My mom was born in Scotland, reared in Alberta, Canada, from 7 years on; my dad and sibs all born in Alberta. I missed by 2 years (though I’m eligible for citizenship by birth). So have a good one, eh?

7/2 - 187 - 1702
It’s a stunning day here, sunshiny, 70s — perfect! Off to do some garden work, then go walk the greenway. Have a lovely!

7/3 - 187 - 1672
I worked in the garden, mulching and transplanting, for about 4 hours yesterday. I was pooped! Also hungry, so I more mulching today, but I’ll try not to eat so much. Happy weekend!

7/4 - 188.6 - 1495
What? Weird. Happy 4th! (Couldn’t find yesterday’s post, which I remember writing, so I fudged.)

7/5 - 188 - 1627
Salty weekend, I guess. I’ve loaded, unloaded, moved around, and spread 40 bags of mulch and some compost the past 2 days, and walked, so have burned some calories. Probably just water weight.

7/6 - 187.8 - 1821
Ooops. I had a major snack attack last night and no self control. But apparently averages matter!

7/7 - 187.4 - 1536
A little better.

7/8 - 187.6 - 1623
All good. Mexican for lunch/dinner today, but other than salt it should be ok. I forgot to check in this morning! Schedule all messed up!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/30 …..196.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
07/01 …..197.6 ….. This is likely my true weight at this point. I ended with an especially low weight last round due to tummy illness. I am ready to take on this new challenge. I will make more changes to see more changes! Good luck everyone!

07/02 …..198.6 ….. Yikes. Yesterday was my son’s birthday, can you tell? Today will be on target. Tomorrow is a very long travel day with multiple meals out and very little movement. It won’t help the cause so I’m going to make today count and work hard on Sunday too. I’m NOT giving up Onederland!

07/03 …..197.8 ….. I made yesterday count after so many routine disruptions and it payed off. Travel today with multiple meals out and lots of sitting. A longer trip than usual that cannot be avoided. Next week will be a week of compensation for this week’s transgressions. All part of the lifestyle changes I have made. I must always pay the fiddler!

07/04 …..199.2….. After a long travel trip yesterday so this was expected but not appreciated. Today is America’s Independence Day holiday but I will have to tread carefully today to no lose anymore progress. I have pre-planned my meals and snacks and will be chugging the water. I will work on more steps too as yesterday was so much car riding and sitting. Have a safe and wonderful day today, my friends.

07/05 …..198.0 ….. I managed to keep the calories within check, even with it being a holiday. Epic fail on the carbs though. Today I will be more mindful of both to continue the progress. This will be an extremely stressful week that is so bad I can barely sleep. Too hard to even talk about. I just have to get through until Friday and then all will be okay. I hope there will be no emotional eating. The scale is coming back down but I am still over starting weight. Hanging onto Onederland has been successful so far. It was to hard to get here to let go of the rope!

07/06 …..197.4 ….. Yesterday was pretty good but I hardly got in steps due to a house full of company most of the day. Today I will be traveling again and a late lunch will be Chinese/Thai as my travel companion is looking forward to it. I’ll control the quantity by eating only half now, half later, but I do expect a jump on the scale. I have started to hope for and dream of being in the 180’s. I’m not sure how long it will take but I have been inspired by so many of you lately and I know I can do it too. It is still an emotionally rough week for me, but I can do this. I’m going to try to enjoy my day a bit today but not let the food/restaurant be the main attraction!

07/07 …..198.0 ….. An uptick on the scale after the travel and Thai food. I have leftovers for today so I may see another uptick tomorrow. I am going to tweak my overall day to accommodate. It is going to rain all day so I am restricted inside with a worker coming anyway. I plan on going up and down my stairs many times today to get in some difficult steps to help offset my overall day. I am over starting weight so I hope to get back there and at least a 0.1 loss to make my goal of Any Weight Loss per round. I’m not giving up and I’m not giving back my progress overall.

07/08 …..198.4 ….. Leftover Thai food showing up on the scale. Temporary water retention is probably what I am seeing. I will walk more, drink more water and pee more often I hope.

07/09 …..xxxxx …..

07/10 …..xxxxx …..

🏃 07/06: 154.6I'm back! I was gone all year. Last year, I lost 40 lbs, but gained 10+ back. I don't want to gain anymore. I seem to be able to bounce back and forth between this weight and 150. Sharing my numbers with this forum seems to help make actually progress, so here I am!

I know in the beginning, the loss is mostly water weight and likely bloat in general, but I still like it!
