I am Catherine, a 44yr old, 5' 7” lady from North Wales, UK.
Round 166 - 79kg (12st 6lb), EW 75kg. Was my first week calorie controlling for a long time so the loss was all water really… now the hard work starts!
SW: 75kg (11st, 11.5lb)
Day/Weight/Comment
10/29: 75.5kg (11st 12.5lb). Went trampolining yesterday and fit in my jeans for the first time in months (they are still very tight!). My eating was fine so I assume the lb regain is a blip that will even itself out tomorrow!
10/30: 75.5kg again.
10/31: 74.5kg (11st 10lb)
11/1: 74.5kg (11st 10lb). Back to school for Ellie today so we are in a rush!!

*********************************************
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.
11/01 146.8 (trend 147.9) Incredibly tired all day so I spent much of it in bed and didn't eat anything until the evening. I'm beginning to suspect I have developed a gluten sensitivity. It's a brand new month and I plan to start as I mean to go on, healthy habits and weighing/logging accurately. If I can't track it I can't have it!

10/29 - 65.25 - What a nice surprise. I wasn't expecting it to be so low. It follows 2 days of no snacking and lots of hiking. Just need to be dedicated to no snacking now I'm home.
10/30 - no scales
10/31 - 65.05 - hopefully I can keep off the snacks and keep this up. Yesterday I wore a pair of jeans I haven't worn in, at least, 18 months 🥳😃

Day/Weight/Comment
10/30 - 187.8
Did well until evening when I mindlessly ate far more than necessary for dinner. Didn’t meet calorie target, but at least think I stayed under maintenance.
10/31 - 187.8 Very good day. Didn’t get exercise in like I hoped, but did get 10,000 steps, stayed within calorie goals, and meal prepped for the whole week ahead. Hoping I can stick with it as I know it’s going to be a stressful week.
11/1 - 185.8 Thankfully at least a little of the previous weigh-ins seem to be water weight.

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹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)

Give me 10 Days Round 167Hey All, Some of you may remember me from a year ago. I first joined GM10D Oct 1, 2020, along with 3 other challenge groups. I stayed in all three until into March 2021 when I was in maintenance and found my writing maintenance posts a confusing action. Daily healthy choices remained consistent until the summer when we spontaneously bought a townhouse to downsize into. We then suddenly had to deal with unplanned preparations for selling our large home of 28 years. It was not without stress (it has actually been a lousy experience). During those months, I hit my lowest weight from stress and not eating, then these past two months I am seeing all my bad habits returning and weight is creeping up and structured exercise is non-existent. I saw the end in sight with our home sale closing of Nov 4, and tried coming back to MFP on Oct 15th (day began wonderfully like I had never slipped up). The day then ended with dealing with my father breaking his hip mid-stride, the ambulance and surgery, and now rehab. My mother is alone 30 minutes away and she gave up driving months ago. I turned 60 on the 26th. Believe it or not, that is all the short version. I could write a book at the moment.
Soooo……… I am back here and hoping a daily check-in and weigh-in helps me to remember myself and healthy choices in all this. I hope 2021 has been good to you all.

10/31 129.8 a bit of a surprise
11/1 128.0 Tracking and exercise still not able to be put in place. I think that is going to be the case for this whole round 167. BUT, I am stepping on the scale daily which is a habit that was also broken as scale avoidance had kicked it. Not perfect, but I will be content if I can at least keep the scale habit, and being informed, going.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 144.5 - This is a nice surprise. After last weekend's indulgences, I expected the extra weight to hang on a bit longer. I have nothing planned for this weekend, except for bulb planting if the rain stops on Sunday, so I will try to stay on track.
10/30 - 145 - Pizza for supper last night.
10/31 - 145.5
11/01 - 145.5 - As I was sitting here at my desk thinking about what to write, a spider dropped from the ceiling directly on my keyboard. I hope that adrenaline rush burned off some of my weekend calories.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 - 219.8 WHAT?! I will say my body was just running through water yesterday. I kept drinking more and more throughout the day. I went home after work and worked out. Set a new 30 minute PR on the Peloton. Woke up this morning and did 40 more minutes. So we're seeing 2 workouts between yesterday's weigh-in and today. First time seeing teens!
10/30 - 218.9
10/31 - 219.4
11/01 - 220.2 Honestly not surprised because halloween weekend is crazy. Party, getting everything ready for trick or treat, etc. really put exercise on the back-burner. Still worked out every day but just not as hard. I also think the time that I weigh on weekend vs Monday makes an impact and my Monday bike rides are always easy to ease into the week.

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.

11/01 - 146.5 - This is more what I've been expecting. Not quite enough water (minimum goal), pizza, and holy moly the soreness! My knee hurt horribly last night. So bad that it starting shooting pain up into my hip. This morning is better, but I can feel the tension in the outside of my leg from knee to hip. Also major soreness in quads. Tried to stretch yesterday -- seems I did a better job with my hamstrings than quads. Ah, live and learn. Allergies got me. They've been really bad in my area for a few days and that run outside stuffed me up good. I used a Neti pot this morning and cleared out some gunk so I can breathe and feel better already. Will take my allergy meds today for sure (and the nasal spray!) Today will work on water and better food choices. Have leftover stuffed pepper soup for lunch, at least!

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.
10/31 - 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!

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!
11/01 - 179.7
I confess—I ate several Hershey’s minis last night. Oh well! Now I’m off for a long walk with the pupper! I’ll do better today. 😁

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!
11/1 215 (-1.8) My sister and I planned to hike six miles yesterday. It was really foggy in the mountains and when we got to the top, it was drizzling and we were concerned we might be climbing down the steep parts in snow. We cut the hike short (4 miles) and finished before the weather got worse. It was cold. I need to pull out my long underwear. Still beautiful, as always. Busy day today with no scheduled exercise.

RSW: 157.4 pounds (Oct 28, 2021, EO Round 166)
RGW: 155.4 (-2.0 pounds)
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.
11/01: 156.5 - Slept in yesterday until 9am - very unusual for me so ended up not doing my workout until nearly 11am. Planned my eating and included Reese’s Peanut Butter cups as part of the dessert. Wow, after eating dark chocolate almost everyday, the Reese’s really wasn’t worth the calories - way too sweet. I’m glad to know that I won’t tempted by the leftover Halloween candy.

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.
11/1: 206.0 Kind of annoyed it’s not more. I had a great day yesterday- 59 net carbs and step goal achieved. But maybe I need to work on my thinking around how my body should behave in response to my actions. We all know the body does it’s own thing, so maybe I need to readjust my expectations. But also, this could still be the sushi water weight hanging around too. Idk. It’s Monday though, and a fresh, shiny new week. Let’s roll!

• Smart BMI - optimal weight.
• Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily. People are still dying out there………
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
October focus:- maintain weight < 150 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
- Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.

Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 167 🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.- Maintain weight < 145
- 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.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/29 / 199 / Second day in a row holding my weight in the 100's! Woo hoo.
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!
10/31 / 197.6 / Had the most intense Peloton ride for me to date yesterday, the sweat was literally dripping off of me!
11/1 / 197.4 / Halloween was fun, had a fun sized bar or two but nothing crazy and fit it within my calories. 35th birthday today, feeling reflective and happy at how this year has gone.. looking forward to another fun year of progress ahead!

10/29 - 65.25 - What a nice surprise. I wasn't expecting it to be so low. It follows 2 days of no snacking and lots of hiking. Just need to be dedicated to no snacking now I'm home.
10/30 - no scales
10/31 - 65.05 - hopefully I can keep off the snacks and keep this up. Yesterday I wore a pair of jeans I haven't worn in, at least, 18 months 🥳😃
11/01 - 65.05
11/02 - 64.90 - I have officially lost the extra pounds I have put on this year 🎉 Now to tackle the ones that have been knocking around for the past 5 years!
