Round 164 (96th for me) . I still need this to help keep me on track, we go away again for a long weekend during this round so lets see how I do this time !!
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to stay on track – Friday we are off for another elongated weekend away in our touring caravan, up to North East Yorkshire this time. Again for the major part I will be responsible for both choosing & providing food, a loss will be welcome – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” 2 months ago, but remember there is still a pandemic: Covid is still around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, always consider others.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

9/30 DNW - scale battery died ! 8.38 miles walked yesterday, good not within goals 😥.
10/1 135 - new battery & I like it!! No walking yesterday, child minding little DGS and all day rain kept us indoors, food reasonable.
10/2. 135.6 - 6.64 miles walked yesterday after 3 hours in the car traveling up to Scarborough, temperatures are much more autumnal now than the previous fortnight we had, what a difference a week makes!!
10/3. 135.2 - 11.68 miles walked yesterday from the site into Scarborough along North shore to and around the castle, harbour along the South shore and then back before the rain came !! Food will within limits.
10/4. 135.2 - 14.22 miles, walked to and up Oliver's Mount to see the war memorial and the marvelous panoramic view over Scarborough before a well earned coffee at the top still sitting the view. Food well within limits.

Day/Weight/Comment
Previous days9/29 73.4kg (161.88) No change is better than gain Autumn is finally here, leaves are falling, it's pouring down and windy. Time to make some soups !
9/30 73.4kg (161.8) Still no change, I ate maybe too many carbs yesterday, but nothing major, I'm happy with a status quo as I'm not really exercising, I do some yoga in the morning and go everywhere by ebike but that's more like a brisk walk than anything, well except yesterday when my battery was flat, that was some workout lol Yesterday evening, I switched my summer/winter clothes and I was happy to find clothes are easy to get into or a bit big so that's a nice. I'll wait till the January sales to get some new clothes, I'm hoping to drop a size (or two ) between now and then !
10/1 73.4kg (161.8 / - 0.0lbs) And again no change Kept to low carb but probably too many calories. Although I'm seeing a difference in body shape with the cycling and I'm happy about that. Also I'm surprised that my inflammation from Rheumatoid Arthritis has nearly gone, I had heard it could be one of the positive aspects of going low carb but I didn't expect such a quick and dramatic change. The swelling and pain in my hands were the first to go but more surprisingly I've had inflammation in my ribcage for nearly 6 months and now I can also breath without pain. So it looks like I'll be adopting keto WOL for the long term. If I could loose weight too that would be a definite winner
Weekend
10/2 73.4 (161.8 / -0.0lbs) The day went well but I had a dinner at friends that evening, we had sushi to compensate for my vegetarian side, I didn't feel I could impose Keto on them either, I also treated myself to a slice of cake while I was at it lol
10/3 DNW - wanted to spend my Sunday blissfully unaware of the consequences of the day before
10/4 74.3 (163.8 / +2.0lbs) yep there it is lol Even though yesterday I was very attentive to stay below 20g carb I still managed to gain from that one day slip, but you can't stop going out and seeing friends because of diet I've planned to commute by bike all week except tomorrow when I'm taking my dad to hospital and I'm going to try to fit in the gym as well to do some cardio and weights. I'm hoping things will get back into enough of a routine that I can go more regularly to the gym on my lunch hour during the week.

Trend goal for round 152.8
**********************************************
9/29 151.8 (trend 153.9) Starting this round with a drop is exciting but I don't think I'm going to change my goal weight, instead I think I'll track my trend weight this round too, to see if I learn anything from it. My trend weight drop last round was 3.2lbs, compared to the 2lbs change in scale weight I had. I spent most of yesterday at my mum's house restoring and refitting some skirting boards that were removed back last winter when her house got flooded. It was good to get it done so she can close that chapter and move on from it. Had a banana for breakfast and then nothing until 7pm as I was busy and didn't feel hungry so I ended up 200 under which might be why there's a drop today. Protein is concerning me, I'm thinking of changing my macros to reduce fat and raise protein, not sure if it'll work for me as I find fat really satiating but I'm worried about losing muscle and I don't want to reduce carbs any further as I get really lethargic when I go below 35%.
9/30 151.6 (trend 153.6) I went shopping for some new walking/trail running shoes yesterday, first time in clothes shops for about 18 months. I didn't find anything suitable so decided to browse for clothes, although I'm not really needing any as stuff I have that's been in storage is starting to fit me again. It was such a different experience to how I remember it in the past, I didn't cringe every time I saw my reflection and even tried on a few things and was surprised to find I'm down a jeans size and can fit medium size 12-14 jumpers without them clinging in all the wrong places! Went for an evening walk with hubby and a couple of drinks, gotta watch out, this is becoming a habit. Calories 100 over, binged a bit on cheese, ham and pickles and not enough veggies.
10/1 153.0 (trend 153.5) Biggest overnight gain that I've had in a while but I'm not surprised. I had cravings all day yesterday and felt really lethargic so didn't get any activity in. I started the day with eggs and a pear rather than my normal banana and rather than making me feel more satisfied it just triggered the munchies monster and nothing I ate would stop me from thinking about food. I wasn't even hungry, just wanted to snack snack snack. I was 200 cals over in the end so obviously not enough to cause a 1.4lb gain, but extra carbs and fibre are having lingering effects I guess. Feeling a bit disappointed with myself and worried that I might be subconsciously self sabotaging as I'm nearly at 30lbs lost and I had told myself when I get there I would start regularly visiting the gym, something I'm dreading. I must make sure I stay busy and stick to the plan today.
10/2 151.4 (trend 153.2) Steps 13,973 Well I decided that the best thing to do was not to wait until I hit 30lbs lost to start going to the gym in case it was leading to self sabotage, so straight after posting yesterday I chucked on my gym clothes and hot footed it down there before I had a chance to over think it and chicken out. First time I've been there in 2.5yrs and it was totally fine, I just walked on the treadmill for an hour at 3.8mph, I don't want to start any complicated fitness routine as my main focus is fat loss right now. Went out in the evening and calories were way over so I'm extra happy with the drop today.
10/3 153.0 (trend 153.2) I think this is going to be one of those bumpy rounds, time to stop staring at numbers and just trust the process.
10/4 150.8 (trend 152.9) Steps 10,450 That's exactly 30lbs lost! 🎉 went to the gym and did an hour fast walking while watching the London marathon for inspiration. Walking at 4.2mph is almost too fast for my short legs and I'm tempted to jog... but not quite there yet! Hubby spent the day batch cooking lots of different curries for the freezer, he's a bit annoyed that I won't be eating them too, I think it gives him joy to cook for me, but it's not what I want to be eating at the moment and I have to do what's right for me.

10/4 - 149.5 - No hugs, it's expected. Oktoberfest was a blast, dinner was heavy and salty. We were up and moving fast early yesterday so I didn't get a chance to weigh in. Saturday I weighed but didn't have an opportunity to post. I'm commuting to work so up early. Have a pretty healthy lunch packed up with a protein shake for a snack if needed. Managed to get my water goals Saturday and Sunday so hoping to continue to the streak today. Honestly, between the walking and making sure I hit water is why I didn't hit the 150s again, thankfully. Quite happy with where I am. I have until Thursday to get back down. My birthday is Saturday (day 1 of next round) but I won't be back to weigh until Sunday. I'd love to be back to 144.x by then, but we shall see how this week goes. Will be doing my best to behave well.

Previous Day's Comments9/29 - Not bad for an early weigh in. Don't expect it to stay so low, yesterday was a super low calorie day. I was banking calories from early in the day for our pizza night (we hadn't been to this place in months, since before the kid's summer break). But we ate late enough I decided only to have a couple slices so I didn't give myself heartburn going to bed so early for today's 330 wakeup. According to Fitbit, I was under my 500 cal deficit by 427 cals, wowza. I have myself some scrambled eggs with spinach, roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, and a couple mandarin oranges for lunch and a protein shake as a snack if I need it to hold me over for dinner. Unsure of dinner yet. Focusing on water for today.
9/30 - Another low-calorie day being at work. I ended up not being very hungry at all after lunch so much so I skipped my protein shake afternoon snack (win!). Dinner of spaghetti also filled me up on a much smaller portion. I have leftovers of yesterday's lunch though I may substitute something else for the eggs today, just not sure what yet. I have some sausage I'm going to make up with bell peppers I could use, I think. Finished 90 oz water, fasted until noon giving me abouuuuut 17 hours (I didn't pay attention to exactly when I finished dinner Tuesday night or last night so approximate times will have to work). Aiming for a minimum of 16 hour fasting, though will be a tad more challenging with a workout and being home near the kitchen.
10/1 - Not bad for being over calories, I'll very much take it! Especially since I thought I'd be seeing 146.x today. It may catch up to me in the next few days (Oktoberfest here in my little German town is this weekend. I've never been to an Oktoberfest before so I'm sure I'll splurge a tad). Just got back from getting coffee with FamWife on this dreary rainy morning. Did a 20 minute yoga session prior to coffee. Need to get in 10 more minutes of a workout today to hit my daily 30 minutes of activity goal. Tad behind on water, but nothing I can't catch up on with some focus. Have some leftover roasted sweet potato chunks to eat up which is what has been filling me up amazingly during my 2 super-low cal days (by low cal I mean between 1200-1300 compared to my normal 1500-1650 range I hang out in). I'll be filling up on that for lunch with protein of some sort. Not sure what yet, thankfully I've got time and that (splurge) chai latte filled me right on up for the morning. Needed a little warm something for this dreary day as a pick-me-up and chai or apple cider are my preferred fall flavors (all year round, too). Debating between Oktoberfest this evening or tomorrow (supposed to rain again tonight and all day tomorrow so it's a play it by "ear" (weather). Either way, that leaves dinner up in the air so need to behave the remainder of the day and bank some calories just in case.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29 - 72.9 - Still coming down from the weekend. Good eating yesterday although was hungry in the middle of the day. But powered through. Finally decided to switch my calories from very slow loss mode (-250kcal per day) to normal loss mode (-500kcal per day) now that my injury is starting to heal and I'm definitely becoming more active. And I've got my fitbit back on so I actually accounting for the calories I get by wandering around all the time. So although the starting calories are smaller, I'll probably end up in about the same place. I mean, I can always change it back again if I find it hard again.
9/30 - 72.9 - Turned out the dinner that I thought was going to be ~700kcals was actually ~1000kcals which completely messed my values up yesterday. I mean, it was 100% worth it as it was delicious, but still, and extra 300kcals I hadn't budgeted for was not a nice thing to realise.

10/4 - 73.9 - Really crappy weekend that started with an entire slab of chocolate, then a cancelled Judo session, an enormous meal out (I mean it was delicious and 100% worth every single one of the calories), and then a stressful Sunday with some slightly disappointing cake. Aaaaaand I just didn't log anything because I was in a mood. Today is a new day. Let's just not let that happen again.

9/30 - 239.9 A back tooth decided to fracture yesterday afternoon. Soft foods til I can get a dentist to deal with it. That's one way to force myself to stay on a diet!
10/1 - 238.6. Root canal yesterday, can't get the crown done until 10/28. I'll be skin and bones by then. Well, at least I'll be less blubbery by then anyway.

10/3 - 239.0 My dad's 82nd BD yesterday. We went to an outdoor party for him and I didn't eat particularly well. Fried chicken, pasta salad, and birthday cake were the worst of my offenses, but in limited quantities (With this darned tooth I have to eat small bites and chew on one side, etc.) I figured taking it easy the rest of the day would offset, but apparently not. What the heck, this may be the last time dad is able to celebrate, I'll accept the calories and move on.

9/29 - 145 - My husband starts his cancer maintenance treatments today. It's only 3 weekly treatments compared to the 6 week course he took over the summer, so I'm hoping I can keep my stress to a minimum and stay on track.
9/30 - 144.5 - I'm home from work today to keep an eye on my husband. He requested grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch which wasn't too bad for my diet. I'm just trying to keep away from the Halloween candy we have stashed in the cupboard.
10/1 - 144 - It's been 4 months since I've been at this weight. I'm sure it will bounce, but this will help my trend weight.
10/2 - 144.5- I got a little off track today with eating, although I got in plenty of exercise. I'll see how my weight reacts over the next few days.
10/3 - 145
10/4 - 145 - OK, I'm sticking to plan today and hoping the weekend doesn't catch up with me tomorrow.

I got my vaccine second dose yesterday (Astrazenica) and honestly in just trying to eat wholesome to prepare my body for the shot I think I ate a little too much… and I slacked off. I think a huge part of my problem is that when I slack off I get discouraged and forget to dust myself off and get back up again.
I will weigh in tomorrow however good or bad the numbers may be - dust it off and try again!
10/4 266.54 ~ so I gained weight. Right before starting this I did a 3 day diet: we see those don’t keep it off! It’s about lifestyle changes! Let’s get it!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29 - 231.0 Just one of those days that you want to climb back into bed. Yesterday was brutal between our office ordering Cheesecake Factory for lunch and then snacking because I was still hungry, combined with not working out enough... Then this morning I thought I had a good workout until I saw I actually did worse than the last time I did that ride. Weighed in 2 lbs higher than yesterday. Forgot my coffee at home. Fast forward to tomorrow please.
9/30 - 229.5 I'll take it. Still higher than the start of the round, but that's just how weight fluctuates. Set a 20 minute personal record on the Peloton this morning so pretty excited for that. Today I'll also close all 3 rings on my Apple Watch to complete a full month of closing all 3 rings! Honestly I don't know if I want to break this streak because I just enjoy pushing myself harder. We'll see if I take a day off...
10/1 - 233.0 I don't understand the number, I just type the number in. I didn't work out this morning but... I also don't think I even consumed 3.5 lbs of things yesterday. So... okay? Hopefully this weekend and next week are better than this week.
10/2 - 232.4
10/3 - 228.6
10/4 - 228.6 Staying mostly flat in this past week (bump aside) so not entirely sure what's going on but this is how things work. Not going to have steady declines the entire time. All I know is I've been working hard on the Peloton and eating right and everything else will fall into place. The Apple Watch October challenge for me is to close all 3 rings 27 days. In my mind, there's no reason to take off 4 random days so I guess I'm going for another full month of closing these rings. Got a light 425 calorie ride in this morning because I slept in... oops!

9/29: 56.8 kg - new milestone!🎉 Hitting the 56 kg mark! Hoping to maintain this. I anticipate some fluctuations, and my goal for Round 164 is to stay within the high 56 range instead of low to mid 57s. Adding the lbs too for motivation 😊 124.96 lbs! Woke up early for work. Aiming to go on two walks again today even if it's only for 15-20 minutes.

Day/Weight(Moving Ave)/Calories/Comment
09/29 — 182.8 (182.5) - 1704 (7-day Ave 1336)
Oops — big dinner and some ice cream. That’s ok. Breaks up the low-cal days. All good!
09/30 — 182.4 (182.4) - 1052
Still lagging from Tuesday’s binge. 😃
10/01 — 181.4 (182) - 1107
Yes! That’s my lowest weigh in & moving average in a year! 😁
10/02 — 181.4 (181.7) - 1435
DH made white chicken enchiladas last night for dinner — yummy, but high cals and I didn’t plan ahead too well. Leftovers tonight, but I’ll have a light lunch, and a good walk with the pup before the afternoon rain arrives. Enjoy your Saturday!
10/03 — 180.8 (181.3) - 1112
We skipped the enchiladas last night in favor of rotisserie chicken, so the high-fat cheesy things are on the menu for tonight. Planning for them! Rory pup and I had a lovely walk along the greenway yesterday. Hoping for another when the rain stops. He’s a great motivator—lots of energy to dissipate! Happy Sunday, all!
10/04 — 182.8 (181.6) - 1917
Woopsie! We had the leftover enchiladas last night. And for over a month I’ve been craving honey barbecue Fritos — crazy! But I bought a bag yesterday on my way home from a 2-mile walk and ate wayyyy too many. So most of this gain is salt/water. Ok, satisfied my yearning, back on track today.

Thank you @quiltingjaine
May 10, 2021:183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever (stopped posting on this challenge July 2020 - very glad to be back!)
Calorie/Carb Cycling with an average of 1200 to 1400 calories at the end of 10 days. 80 oz water each day. Row/Walk/Free-Weights most days. IF, no sugar. Focus on getting enough vegetables.
Next short-term goal:
162....161....160............159.x
SW (9/28): 162.7
09/29: 162.0
09/30: 161.8
10/01: 161.7
10/02: 161.7
10/03: 161.6
10/04: 161.5 - I'm happy with this number because yesterday was one of my planned high-calorie days. I've had cravings for "carby" comfort food. I haven't been eating wheat or drinking milk but decided to make macaroni and cheese. I even used whole milk for the white sauce. The recipe only made 4 servings and I ate 3. It was so good, however, I'm glad I only have one serving left! My husband didn't eat any because he's been off wheat for four months. He was having almost daily stomach issues for a long time to the point it was getting hard to go off very far and his blood pressure was very high. He's active, doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, hardly ever eats processed food. The doctor couldn't find anything to help. He thought he was going to have to go on blood pressure medicine. He had tried eliminating different foods from his diet, and almost totally cut out salt and sugar, which he never ate a lot of anyway - nothing worked. Wheat was the last thing he tried. Two weeks after stopping it, he dropped 5 lbs which he didn't need to lose (6'1" and 175 pounds). Now four months later his weight has stayed at 170 pounds, his blood pressure is 127/68 and his stomach problems are 100% gone! I guess some of the problem was inflammation since both problems were resolved and he's not allergic to wheat but I guess just super sensitive. He hasn't introduced it back into his diet yet to see what happens because he's feeling so much better. Pretty amazing and so grateful he's better!

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's
If I quit now, I'll soon be back where I started. And when I started, I so desperately wanted to be where I am now!
There is no going back! NOT THIS TIME!14 -

UGW: 175
End of 10 day challenge goal: 223
Drink a minimum of 64 oz water a day
Swim, Circuit, Hike (5x week minimum)
Seven days of maintenance to begin this challenge
Challenge 156: 245.4 (-1.8) - Challenge 157: 242 (-3.4) - Challenge 158: 240 (-2.0) - Challenge 159: 237 (-3.0) - Challenge 160: 235.6 (-1.4) - Challenge 161: 229.6 (-6.0) - Challenge 162: 227.6 (-2.0) Challenge 163 223.4 (-4.2)
9/29 223.6 (+.2) Today is my first day of maintenance. I’m taking seven days “off” and allowing my body to adjust to where I am before starting on the next phase. I’m going from 1250 calories a day to 1740. It feels strange and uncomfortable already and this is just breakfast. No planned formal exercise today. The art show is going great so far, which is really exciting.
9/30 223.8 (+.4) My art show sold out! I’m thrilled. It was a crazy busy day as you can imagine. I ate dinner late and didn’t get in all my water, so I’m not surprised at a slight bump on the scale. It was my first day in maintenance mode. It was nice to add a little parmesan cheese to my salad and have a slice of toast with peanut butter. Tish asked me if I was going to eat up to my maintenance calorie level or just eat more when I specifically wanted it. My response was the first, to eat up to my maintenance level. As I was eating yesterday, I better understood what she was asking. I did measure and log and had 200 calories left at the end of the day. My answer after one day in is…I will eat until I’m not hungry and keep it below my calorie goals. After limiting my calories, it’s not surprising that I get full even when I have calories left. It was a strange, but good first day.
10/1 222.8 (-.6) Yesterday was one of my busiest days in a long time, so I didn’t eat up to maintenance level. I never thought I’d find it difficult to eat more. Things will slow down for awhile now and I can get back to exercise, drinking my water and eating according to plan. I think I need a nap.
10/2 223.6 (+.2) I got my swimming in yesterday and have Orange Theory Fitness on the schedule today. I did eat up to my maintenance calorie level and half of my exercise calories. In that mix, I actually had a bottled margarita, my first alcohol since I started this journey. I’m not stressing at all over the bump. It will be interesting to see how my body responds to this week’s change in calorie levels.
10/3 223.4 (0) My lunch yesterday was late and about 5pm I thought I should prep dinner so I’d finish eating by 6pm. But…I wasn’t the least bit hungry. So, no dinner for me. I ate just under 1300 calories. With exercise, I had 850 calories remaining. Today is a walk with the dogs and I’m planning to do a better job eating all my meals and drinking all my water. Just a few days left in maintenance mode.
10/4 223.6 (+.2) I’m staying in a small range. There are some days I was lower in calories than my maintenance level and I have to admit, I was hoping still to lose a little. Tomorrow is my last day in maintenance mode and then it’s back full force into deficit mode. I can’t wait to get back to losing!!

@eyesopennow It was good thank you! There were so many leaves on the ground that it was a bit hard to find the ball at times, but the weather was nice and the company was good. I'm an average golfer at best so just there for the good shots and getting a few pars... keeps me coming back7
