Just Give Me 20 Days - Round 167

Round 167 (99th for me). I need this to help keep me on track.
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to yet again get back on track; I'm endeavouring to have a binge free 10 days, after all it's just 10 days! – I want to drop a few pounds by the start of December as I feel more comfy in a dress I want to wear for Peaky Blinders dance night – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” sometime ago, but remember there is still a pandemic, cases are continuing to rise: 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.

?�゚マᄐ?マᄐ?�゚マᄐ This is NOT A DIET - It’s a PERMANENT HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. ?�゚マᄐ?�゚マᄐ7 -
@Elbee1 - you are doing the right thing not telling your Mom about the loss of your Dad; it would be too traumatic for her at the point of telling her and then due to the dementia she would not retain the information afterwards so she would be terribly upset for (for her) no reason. Best to let her be unaware.
During the later years of my Dad's life he asked me one day where my Mom was - she had passed away 11 years earlier and I gently told him. His devastation and trauma at the loss was as if she had just left us and was also extremely upsetting for myself too & just half an hour later he had completely forgotten. Each time after that when he asked the question, I told him she had gone shopping with her sisters which she regularly did right up to her last illness, he was happy with that, didn't remember later and more importantly avoided the terrible upset. I also asked the care home where he lived out the last four years of his life to say the same; they were initially reluctant to use white lies, but appreciated that it was in his best interest and obliged.
Dementia is such a cruel illness !! It takes so much from both the patient and their family's lives. Keep strong and take care of yourself, you deserve it; sending hugs and best wishes xx.9 -
I've been lurking on the boards since August, and this is my first comment.
Background: When I was 15, my best friend developed an eating disorder, and while trying to help her, instead, I joined her, and I dropped to 105 pounds from my normal 135-ish. At 5"7, this was not a healthy weight (or mindset!) for me, and and for years I tried get better. I did succeed, with some ups and downs, by embracing a more spiritual and less physicality-focused lifestyle. in my early 20s, I weighed 130, a little thin for my broad frame, but was okay because my mindset was healthy.
After I had my eldest child, I still had a few pounds to lose from the pregnancy, so I tried to diet to lose the baby weight. It was terrible. All of my old anorexic thoughts came flooding back. I scrambled back off the edge, but with each subsequent birth, when I would try to lose the weight, it would happen again. My diet mindset was triggering my old eating disorder mindset, and I was forced to stop before I lost myself. So with each birth I gained a baby...and a few pounds.
Then, this August, at the age of 39 and weighing more than I have ever weighed in my entire life, including when I was 9 months pregnant, I was feeling terrible. My knees hurt, I was bloated all the time, and I felt foggy and dull and just plain yucky. I could not go on this way, and so, I prayed for help and tentitively tried again. I joined Myfitness pal in late August.
It's been 64 days, and I am so happy to share that for the first time ever, I am succeeding at dieting without falling back into the chasm of disordered thinking! I've finally grown up! Hooray!
Anyway, I am moving to a new nighborhood in a few weeks, and I would love to hit my first mini goal weight before I do. Ya know, meet the new neighbors looking a little better than I look right now. So, I'm a couple of days late, but ready to join this challenge!
I hope I'm doing this right:
Original starting weight: 190
Ultimate goal weight: 145

*********************************************
10/29 148.2 (trend 148.4) Weight is back up again but I did drink a large glass of water half an hour before weighing so I can probably take a pound off this. Had takeaway chicken shish and salad for dinner, asked them to swap the pita for extra red cabbage but they swapped it for fries instead! Yes, I ate them, whoops! I decided to add half a pound back on to my round goal as I think I was being overly optimistic! Didn't sleep well, I've been up since 3.30 and have the plasterers in all day then guests arriving at 6 so it's gonna be a looong day... Happy Friday peeps x
10/30 147.0 (trend 148.2) had people over, we got an Indian takeaway. Really tricky to find low calorie options, ended up with chicken tikka with a few poppadoms and some salad. I ordered a vegetable side dish but it didn't come so had a chocolate cereal bar for pudding instead.
10/31 147.2 (trend 148.1) I haven't been logging my food for the last few days as things have been a bit hectic. I also had a pretty big binge last night so I'm in a bit of a danger zone and really need to get my discipline back. We went to pizza hut yesterday for lunch, I stuck to just the salad bar but did have some of the more creamy things like coleslaw and blue cheese dressing so probably still had a lot of calories. In the evening I was feeling a bit stressed and tired so ended up stuffing my face with food. I really need to get back in control.

10/29 216.4 (-.4) Almost fifty pounds down since May. That’s amazing. I hope to be down fifty more by May of next year. I may skip my indulgence meal this week. It really threw me off last week. No organized exercise today, so I’ll have to really pay attention to my calories.
10/30 215.2 (-1.6) Yes…finally a bit of a whoosh. 216 has always been my stuck weight. I’d diet and get there and then get stuck long enough to give up. I’ve only passed it once in the last 20 years. I was so careful to stay on plan yesterday and to get my water. Today is Orange Theory Fitness and tomorrow is hiking about 6 miles. Looking forward to a good and healthy week.
10/31 215.6 (-1.2) Worked at out OTF yesterday. Doing lunges, I noticed that I’m pretty stable on my feet, which has not been the case in the past. My balance is definitely improving. Hiking this morning on a cold fall day in Colorado. Happy Halloween!

How I miss the rustling of leaves once they are all gone, and how I listen, in spring, for the first day when the leaves are big enough to rustle again! That always cheers my little pagan soul. Lots to do around the place today, as always. But how much easier chores are now that I am not lugging around that extra 86 pounds of fat with me everywhere I go. That's definitely a benefit that I hadn't considered. Found out that there is a local place where I can donate my "fat" clothes and which sell very cheaply and the profit is given to the food bank. Awesome. I won't feel so sad at donating my beloved fleece-lined trousers. I'm having such a tough time letting go of these but they're a roomy size 16 and haven't fit for ages! I went to the store (Mark's) and bought a new pair but they're not as nice as the original (isn't that always the way?) I really wanted to give those trousers to somebody but I fear that I would offend them, and couldn't think of a way of giving them that couldn't be interpreted "these are my fat pants, but they should fit you."

10/29 - 179.8
Ok, well, at least my average isn’t rising. The floor has taken longer than planned because the guy’s assistant won’t show up for work, but hopefully he can wrap it up today and we can reassemble the house and eat normally again. I’ve decided that since books, including cookbooks, and other stuff are all out of their homes, it’s a good time to “Marie Kondo” a lot of things!
10/30 - 179.6
Floors are finished—yay! Now to put everything away (and not all over my office floor!). And now I can get back to eating conscientiously. I’m happy and relieved that I didn’t gain this past week. Enjoy your weekend!
10/31 - 🎃 179.6
Happy Halloween, Feliz Dia de Los Muertos, Blessed Samhain! I kept to my calorie goal yesterday, but have a little lag time from heavier days to deal with. All good!

10/29 - 146.0
10/30 - 144.7
10/31 - 144.7 - I don't trust this. Either my body or the scale is playing tricks with me. 144.x is elusive and has been for months. I wasn't careful with food yesterday (BF made breakfast tacos, I had a bagel and peanut butter for lunch, and finally got my senses straight to make stuffed pepper soup for dinner. With a roll. Then BF wanted my homemade brownies which I couldn't resist and had a piece). It'll probably show up tomorrow. This is beyond odd to have 144 two days in a row like that. I don't want to hope too much, but part of me is excited this may be the end of my months-long adjustment (about every 10lbs, looking at my historical data). I have a 5k today. I don't think I'll try to run it all, I haven't run in weeks due to work and I'm just not feeling it 100%. I have a dry throat again this morning, drinking tea before I set off to walk this. Dang. Was hoping this would be a good benchmark for my actual 5k in 3 weeks. Will try to run where I can manage without overdoing it or causing injury. Will have pup so probably have to pause to drop her off before continuing it at some point. At least the fresh air should do me some good!

Previous Day's Comments10/29 - Sometimes I wonder if my body is playing tricks on me. A sudden unexplained gain that just so happens to fall on the end of the round? Followed by a much more expected weight one day later? Hmmmm, suspicious. Oh well, moving on. Cold and super windy here these last few days. Haven't taken the pup because the last time I did, I nearly got blown away. Hopefully today is calmer and I don't have to coordinate between work meetings to get outside for one. Still feeling okay, BF still sounding horrible. Doing my best to keep up with my tea/supplement regime. Reishi, ashwagandha, and cinnamon in mornings, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and cayenne in evenings. Gut boosting, inflammatory reducing, and immune assisting. Zinc and a Vit C/D on hand as well if I feel my diet isn't sufficient to provide those.
10/30 - Now I'm really confused! I expected to be up, especially with a later night snack involved (granted, just a handful of cashews, but still a late snack). I'm sure this will bounce back up tomorrow, it seems oddly low given how I haven't exactly been the best food wise. Also, could be lack of water. I only hit about 70-75 oz water yesterday versus my normal 90+ oz. Still good since doc wants me to drink 1/2 body weight in oz, but lower than normal. Bit of a dry throat this morning, thankfully not crazy sore. Started off with a tea right away and now on to room temperature water to sooth it better. Thinking of breaking my fast to make a honey-mushroom shot for immunity and to sooth the dryness a bit more.

10/29 …..186.6 ….. …..(Trend weight 187.2) A nice drop after a day with very careful meals. However, the snacks weren’t good. Once on that cycle the cravings are horrid. All the more reason to stick to our guns and STAY AWAY from things not in the plan. Happy to see this drop. TMI helped too. Travel today, unfortunately. Seriously low on tile for the bathroom reno so away I go this morning. Back this evening by 6:00 I hope. Lunch out. Dinner at home is the plan.
10/30 …..188.0 ….. ( Trend weight 187.3)Travel and car-sitting weight showing up so no surprise here. I’m going to work on having an excellent day. Time for compensation. The piper wants his pay.
10/31 …..188.4 ….. (Trend weight 187.3) Halloween Candy. End of Story.

10/30: 181.0 did 25k yesterday. But was sooo hungry in the evening… ordered a chicken burger with fries… in the end… I felt stuffed, uncomfortable and I don’t know why I did it. I almost never eat burgers and fries … I think there was a lot of anxiety playing around that.

10/30 / 197.6 / I was low on my steps yesterday as I had a volunteer event at night and then it was dark and snowy and I was tired. Nevertheless, my food adjusts to account for it. So happy to be putting a bit more distance between myself and the 200's!

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.

I need to try that! I'll look for mine. It's somewhere in that cabinet. Unfortunately I'm short so I'll have to pull a bunch of stuff down to get to the back haha!2 -
I ran. First mile with pup but she was unruly. Dropped her off and continued. First time running 3 miles straight since before my surgery. Also my 5th anniversary of my surgery today! 4:14 slower, but not bad for not having run any in the past month. Part of that is likely the dog who kept slowing me down and tripping me up. You'd think she'd learn the first 5 times of getting accidentally stepped on! So I have 3 weeks to make up about 5 minutes!8

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 157.2 - Did Jazzercise at the in-person location for the first time in 17 months. Sucked wind through my mask the whole time. Will probably go back to virtual class for a while more. Ate a little bit below calories - which I am definitely not trying to do - since we were at a hockey game and didn’t want to eat junk food just to fill calories.
10/30: 156.5 - Did a 5.46 mile hike. I was a bit hungry yesterday, particularly after dinner, even though my stomach felt full. Powered through with drinking some water and waiting. Will definitely try to up the protein today, but it is a struggle for me.
10/31: 156.3 - This was our week for sporting events. NHL game on Thursday and college football game last night. Planned the food for the most part and stayed within calories. Worked out in the morning along with a long walk from the car to the stadium.

SW: 206.2
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 206.4 56 net carbs yesterday, step goal achieved, and Pelo ride done. Why the uptick? Bodies work in mysterious ways. 🤷♀️ I know it’s nothing I did, so it’s all good. It may be lingering hormones. I’m so close to that 1 in front of the number that I can taste it, so I’ll keep pressing forward.
10/30: 206.2 It’s good to see the number drop again, but I do think the carby pizza I had last night showed itself this morning. My fingers were a little puffy when I woke up. 85 net carbs, strength training done, but slightly short on my step goal. It’s all good. I’m going to make today count!
10/31: 206.2 I’m not surprised I didn’t drop this morning. I had a girls day out with my daughters yesterday and we wound up at a conveyor sushi restaurant for dinner. I kept it reasonable though, and managed to keep in my calorie goal. Carbs came in at 103 for the day. Step goal achieved though! On to today.

🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

10/29 385.0 – 6024 steps, Finally I lost some weight! Hopefully tomorrow I can maintain some of it. My body is so funny. We will see. I am not changing my goal. To end the year strong my additional goals are to go to bed by 11:30, no eating out or junk food 6 days a week.
10/30 383.6 – 5642 steps
10/31 383.6 -- 5815 steps - I am expecting a weekend bounce tomorrow. Hopefully it will be not more than 2 pounds. I reached my step goal 6 days out of seven when I get my step goal tonight. Working out is helping even though I have to modify my workouts.

My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.
I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.
Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.
Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.
On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.
My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.
Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! We have the power within us.*One of my major goals is to get my BMI under 40 (260 weight) so I can have surgery on my knees*

10/29: 177
10/30: 177
10/31: 178.4 Well, that's going in the wrong direction altogether! I walked a lot and ate slightly under my calories, but I was up a lot with a teething baby, so I wonder if not getting enough sleep has to do with my slight jump. Not that there's much I can do about it! Oh, well. I will count my blessings, which are many, and remember that tomorrow is another day.

Round 167 (99th for me). I need this to help keep me on track.
@QuiltingJaine-thank you for setting up the new round.
Challenge for this round is to yet again get back on track; I'm endeavouring to have a binge free 10 days, after all it's just 10 days! – I want to drop a few pounds by the start of December as I feel more comfy in a dress I want to wear for Peaky Blinders dance night – any loss will be a win!
Covid restrictions have mostly been lifted in England – we reached “freedom day” sometime ago, but remember there is still a pandemic, cases are continuing to rise: 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.
