12/09 I’m starting today. Plan on eating chicken noodle soup, and mixed salad. Weight: 191 lbs after a heavy breakfast
12/10 : 187.4 (morning before eating)
12/11: 186 (this morning after waking up, no eating). For the past 3 days, I’ve reached my goal of not going over 1300 calories. I’m very happy that it is clicking, I’ll do everything to reach my calorie goal one day at a time.
12/12: 187. I exceed my calories by 211. I was so hungry, but I don’t think that explains the gain. I must have been losing water weight the first day. I’m still ecstatic with the results. Today I will do the low impact beginner workout video from Body Project on YouTube.
Update: It’s 11:37, I just finished the video “Fun, low impact workout for TOTAL beginners” on YouTube. I hadn’t worked out in a loooong time. I was able to finish the whole workout, I feel AMAZING right now !! Next goal for the day: stay within my daily calories.

12/08 / 190 / Rough night volunteering last night. Today will be busy at work, we'll see what exercise I get up to at lunch and afterwards. Excited to see the first 18x number this round!
12/09 / 188.2 / Hello whoosh! I haven't seen the 180's for over 15 years... I am over the moon excited for this final stage of my weight loss journey!
12/10 / 189.6 / Did my first 60 minute Peloton ride this morning. I didn't want to get out of bed but I was so glad I did!
12/11 / 189.2 / Had my work's virtual Christmas party last night. Husband and I got to order in and watch the private concert. I know I want to do some strength training today and we'll see what else we get up to. Feeling a bit sore so might take it easier than normal.
12/12 / 189.6 / More sedentary day yesterday as we saw two movies in the theatre (there was a good promotion on). Still did 53 minutes of exercise though so I'm happy about that.

5'9" F 67yrs
Starting Weight a few years ago 278-Thankfully I've kept off those 70 pounds, but it's time to tackle the next several lbs!
Goals
To end the month/year within a 2 pound range (ie I may lose this pre Christmas celebration challenge, but don't want to weigh more than 210-I want to stay in the 200 + single digits range) I'd love to enter the New Year at 202-the overweight catagory for me, but realistically? I commit to weighing & measuring my nutritionally rich food for this challenge, and to get down to 205-206 range.
Here's to health!

12/11 207.8 Back to the beginning of this round's weight. Yep-weight fluxuates! That being said, as I've read through all your posts (yes, this morning I did read through 4 pages of comments looking for my last post) I'm reminded that I've missed drinking lots of water, and swimming. So my focus today is H2O-in and around me!

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.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable but I’ve been doing it for over 4 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

12/8 117.5 Chocolate Tres Leches Cake - MEH. Friend brought it from Texas because she thinks it wonderful.
12/9 118.0 Edited yesterday’s post. Appointments with the retina specialist today. The pinched nerve and arthritis in my neck has been bothering me for several days. Not an excuse, just a diary entry because I save all of my posts.
12/10 117.0 Community Arts and Crafts luncheon today. Brown bag lunch and shared desserts. I’m making my always popular high carb brownies. They smell sooo good!
12/11 119.0 Holiday party #1 under my belt and the 2nd and last coming this afternoon. It l’s all good. Breakfast Bingo this morning with “continental breakfast.” We all know that means loads of carbs. They should have some berries that I’ll eat and I’m taking my own low carb yogurt.
12/12 121.5 Pre-Christmas gathering #2 of 2. Glad those are over. Back with the program. It’s all good.10 -

Thank you quiltingjaine for keeping this going!
May 10, 2021: 183.1 - just 2.9 pounds off 186, my heaviest weight ever.
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. If I hit each of these, the weight loss will follow!
Next short-term goal:
166....165....164....163....162....161....160...159.X
12/08 - Weight ? Yesterday I weighed 162.8. Today's weight at 6am before going to an early doc appt was 161.3. When I got home and weighed at my usual time, I weighed 160.6. Regardless of which one is correct, my goal is to reach the 150's at the end of 10 days.
12/09 - 160.6 - I guess I was ready for drop since I'm still 160.6.
12/10 - 160.4
12/11 - 160.2 - Today feels like winters in Georgia - cold and rainy. It's a great day for projects! Enjoy the weekend!

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!9 -

12/12 - 147.6 - Expected. We wanted to get out of our crazy touristy town. Unfortunately, we had no idea the little cute town we wanted to visit had a Christmas event going on so it was just as toursity. Oh well, change of pace and scenery was still nice. Due to this, though, we ate out for "Linner" at a pizza place. Not too much water, either. Still hit minimum 70oz, but hard to tell with the glasses they provided us. Yesterday was NF rest day. Didn't track my fast, but I believe I was about 16 hours or so. All other habits good. NF promotes "paleo-ish" (more eat real foods and paleo is a good way to frame that). Lunch prep happened this morning, focusing on paleo: roasted broccoli and bell peppers for veggies, roasted sweet potato for my carbs, and baked chicken breast cut into tenders. Have a kiwi for dessert all 4 days. Errands: Grocery shop for staples to improvise dinner (complete, BF cooking dinners and he doesn't know what he wants to make), fill 5gal water jugs (complete), laundry (complete, just need to fold), meal prep (complete, tomorrow's lunch packed and ready to grab-n-go and coffee pot ready and set to brew), and shower (later). Whew. Busy busy. Trying to fast until lunch since I'm only just now starting to feel hungry. Have leftover sausage and broccoli from Friday as well as some sweet potato from this morning's meal prep. Unsure of dinner. Since I'm commuting this week, I expect a bump up this week. Later dinners and early mornings usually result in that. Will be focusing on my NF goals regardless and try to offset. I'm just happy to be pretty steady in the 140s again.

Previous Day's Comments12/08 - Whew, the first weigh in of the round is now over and no random uptick! Food was okay, portions were good, water was excellent. All NF habits completed. Got plenty of stretching in through the day, but checked off goal with a 6 minute morning yoga routine. My body was a bit stiff so throughout the day, I got on the floor and moved in whatever way felt comfortable. Today is 7 reverse lunges each as well as my BW workout from NF so I'll knock those out here shortly. Lots of back to back meetings again so no grocery trip today (and if the meetings hold, tomorrow either) so I have to get creative with a balanced lunch these next couple of days. Friday I'm off so can stock up for the weekend and next week.
12/09 - Scale was making rash decisions this morning. Before I could even get both feet settled on it, it had settled on 146.2. I was not confident so I let it cycle through off and on, tried again. Another rash decision. With only one foot on the scale (the other hovering as I was in the process of stepping from floor to scale) 148.6. Okaaaaay, not even ON the scale. Finally, it acted normal and gave me 2 back to back readings (that took the normal couple of seconds to register) of 146.7. Well then. Today is rest day for NF. QFit wants me to do 9 staircases but I don't have any staircases around that are accessible to me/open to the public (or part of a state park in which you have to schedule a reservation and pay for). All habits good yesterday, water was good. Food was much much better with veggies in all 3 meals. I know dinner is homemade hamburgers at Fam's again tonight and I also know they usually leave me feeling horribly full and the scale jumping up the next day. Will be sure to plan around that with breakfast and lunch as well as eat slower tonight and be mindful of portion size.
12/10 - Actually shocked I'm down. Homemade venison/beef burgers. Also had a small pre-dinner snack of Limburger cheese on wheat thins (Those pushed me over calories by about 100). I did cut my burger in half. Ate half with the bun, the other half without bun. Saved me some calories and helped me up protein without upping carbs anymore. Also only ate cucumber and carrots as a side. Not a single chip, either! Lunch was a frozen burrito because meetings came flooding in back to back around my normal lunch and I only had about 5 minutes to get something and stuff my face. Breakfast was alright with ham/egg/cheese english muffin. No veggies, though. Finished my NF bodyweight workout already this morning. All of NF habits good. Hoping to hit 15 hours fasting despite my workout (NF goal is 15 hours so I'm not worried if I'm below 16. Training my body to adjust to fasting while working out is a lot harder than I thought. This is why fasting fell off my radar when I was training for my 5k. Hangry was not fun). Grocery shopping today. Hopefully I can get in and out before I get too ravenous. I am pretty good about sticking to my list, though, regardless of hunger.
12/11 - We ended up unexpectedly hanging out with some friends late last night and didn't get home until about 2am just talking and hanging out. Woke up at about 8 remembering I'd promised the local grocery store I'd be in early if they'd save me some boxes from overnight stocking (which they did! Yay free moving boxes). I was dressed and ready before my sleepy little brain realized I hadn't weighed. I figure it will likely be a false weight given the late night, lack of sleep, and water anyway so I'm not too upset by it. Back on goals/habits today. Everyone is out of town except the 2 friends we hung out with last night so it's just BF and I today. Making grocery list for dinners next week (I'm commuting) and I'll pick those up tomorrow before football starts. Rest day for NF (thankfully, after that little sleep I'd be really struggling). Not sure what's on the agenda for us today

**************************************
12/08 140.0 (trend 141.6) hit last round's goal a day late, it's nice to start on a round number. I'm surprised to get a drop today as I was waaaay over calories yesterday so this may just be dehydration, we'll see tomorrow. The family had a Chinese takeaway last night, I had a taste and a few prawn crackers but didn't order a meal, instead I had a ham sandwich and a chocolate bar, probably not the best substitute on reflection! I'll have to try and make amends today.
12/09 139.8 (trend 141.4) Excited to get a glimpse at the 130s! Didn't eat much again yesterday but woke up starving so I think it's safe to say my appetite is back, got to watch out that I don't binge today. I'm craving soup and have a couple of pumpkins left that I grew so may have to make some nom nom. Still haven't got a kitchen though so it'll be a bit tricky, maybe I'll use the slow cooker.
12/10 140.4 (trend 141.2) Had a really lazy day yesterday and probably snacked a bit too much. I need to up my water intake and get back to more structured eating. Taking my daughter (17) for her first vaccine today, 1 hour in the car each way, we'll probably stop off at the garden centre on the way back and go to the cafe, buy a special tree ornament and maybe a holly wreath. OH is away for a few nights so we can binge on tacky Christmas movies and decorate the house a bit. I just need to clean it first, blah. Not all girly stuff though, we're gonna watch the grand prix tomorrow. Mercedes F1 is based in our little town so it's the law that we watch it!
12/11 140.4 (trend 141.1) had a bit of a binge last night, bought some lebkuchen which I absolutely love and holds so many nostalgic memories for me. I probably scoffed about 8 and a packet of crisps and stayed up until the wee small hours so I'm expecting a gain over the next few days. Really tired today so I'm gonna be relaxing and taking it easy.
12/12 142.0 (trend 141.3) Me and the girl decorated the tree, danced around to wham and had far too much baked camembert, bread and mulled wine. Big gain but hopefully only temporary!

Previous days
12/8 119.6 Cool with that weight today. Went for a run this morning and it felt good but it was chilly, so I sweat less than the past two days of using the spin bike inside. I plan to spin tomorrow morning, so I don’t push it with my knee. Food was good all day, although when I was done with my day/finished dinner I was still hungry. I ended up going over on calories but spent them on a microwave baked apple (core an apple, pop in the microwave for 4-5 minutes with a splash of water, finish with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice) and that helped curb the hunger a bit.
12/9 Did not weigh this morning. Did a 60 minute spin bike ride this morning. My husband came home super early this morning because there was a fire at my in-law’s condo complex. He was okay but he could smell and see smoke in the building’s hallway and the fire fighters were starting to show up, so he didn’t stick around to see what happened and just grabbed his stuff and headed home at 3:30 in the morning. That was a scary text to see when I woke up but was so grateful that he was okay and that he heard the faint fire alarm going off.
I have my food all planned for the day and it should be a solid day.
12/10 did not post
12/11 did not post
12/12 Feeling tired today. I had caffeine yesterday and thought I slept okay but I guess I didn’t because I’m definitely not energetic. TOM is due in the next 5ish days and I’m just feeling funky from it, I feel puffy, blah, and just sick of the extra weight creep that has happened over the last few months. Now, when I cut I end up feeling extra hungry (even if it’s like 200 cals max but typically 75-100) so it just makes me want to eat at maintenance but then the Christmas treats have been showing up randomly and my will power is gone at the moment (my mother In law made anise cookies and I had three of them but that was probably 300 empty calories and on Friday and Saturday I ended up going over my calories too) . It’s probably just hormones but it’s really annoying. Then on the other hand, I know I’m getting stronger and my runs have been improving a bit along with my strength routine, so I guess I’m just having a struggle moment. Sorry for the ranting but it’s my truth right now.

I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), add one day of double strength training per week (didn’t hit this last round cause of a cold).
Previous Rounds169 150->151.2 (+1.2) Thanksgiving
170 151.2->148.3 (-2.9)
Previous Posts12/8 workday 2/2. Leftover soba noodles with cabbage, bell pepper, carrot and tofu for lunch. Roasted Brussel sprouts with a Buffalo sauce, avocado, and seitan for dinner. Protein: 124
12/9 I meal planned today since I work all weekend (boooo!) and ran around all morning doing some Christmas shopping and getting groceries. I did a clean and jerk, v-up, burpee workout and big pull day for strength (PRs on my DB rows and rack pulls!). Our gym is in the garage and I’m maxing out on the DB’s (only go up to 60) but we are also maxing out on space for gym equipment since we do use it as an actual car garage. I might look into getting PowerBlocks to get us up to 90lbs without using up much more floor space. Had a farro bowl with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, seitan and a gochujang sauce. Walked around the neighborhood after dinner looking at Christmas lights. Protein: 126
12/10 I did two cardio workouts. One jump rope and DB step ups and the other rowing, shoulder press, and bent over barbell rows. I did a core workout from my strength programming. Normally there are 4 days of mostly compound lifts and 2 days of accessory and core work and I’ve been trying to fit in the accessory days on one of my 4 non-work days. Mission accomplished today! I also went on a walk (I like to listen to house music and walk to the beat. Keeps the pace brisk lol) before it got super windy. I ran a few errands this afternoon with my mom and went to the florist to have them make a festive garland with lights to go around my front door. Hit some PRs (again!!) on leg day for the primary lifting session. I ended up eating waaay more today than I have for the past few weeks since I was so active. Dinner was a roasted cauliflower, black lentil, green olive, pistachio salad with a lemon vinaigrette and baked tofu. Back to work tomorrow. Protein: 162
12/11 Probably the most annoying day of work in recent memory. Not looking forward to going back in the morning. Really yummy roasted eggplant and tomato soup and seitan for dinner though. Protein: 115

Let’s rock and roll! Back in September, I had set a goal to see 199 by New Year’s Day. These short 10 day challenges have really kept me motivated, and got me to that goal more than a month early. So maybe, just maybe…. I can see 190 by New Year’s Day?! I’m surely going to try!

Goals this round: 10,000 steps daily, <100 net carbs daily, Pelo ride 2-3x week, strength training 2-3x week
SW: 193.4
12/8: 193.4 63 net carbs yesterday and Pelo ride done. Fell short on steps, but it is what it is. Seems the monthly stall has arrived, so this round will likely not bring much loss. I’m okay with that.
12/9: 194.6 94 net carbs, and a little short on steps. Monthly stall is in full effect.
12/10 194.6 Holding steady, which is good during this stall cycle! 60 net carbs, but I’ve been failing fairly miserably at my step goal. I’m granting myself some grace here though. The holiday season has had me pretty dang busy.
12/11 194.6 yet again. 62 net carbs, but more sodium than usual. I’m surprised I didn’t gain considering how much time I spent on my feet yesterday. Still fell short of my step goal again. It is what it is. I know myself well enough to know at some point, I will get back to hitting my step goal.
12/12 195.4 Managed 73 net carbs yesterday. Spent awhile in the kitchen on my feet baking Christmas cookies. By the end of the day, I could tell I was low on protein for the day. I wound up having a meat and cheese snack because I was absolutely starving! I gotta pay better attention to the protein! This week I’ve felt so off kilter. I’m glad for a new week, and feeling like Sunday is a fresh new start.

Round 171 (103rd for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.
There is only 17 days to Christmas !! So I'd like to lose 3 pounds for then ( I think 2 pounds are more realistic, but I'll give it a go!), that is only 2.5 weeks, a pound a week or 2 pounds per round. I know it will be tight, with more pre-Christmas activities, but I'm going to persevere and keeping going. Incentive is that I feel good about the dresses I want to wear for our Christmas & New Year dance nights. I need to remain binge free, but as always – yet again any loss will be a win!
Covid numbers keep yo-yoing in England – we reached “freedom day” back in the summer, but there is still a pandemic, and now a new variant: Covid is still very much around! Continue to wash hands, be kind, wear a mask in public indoor settings, stay alert and 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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

12/12. 135.6 - ugh!! yes went a bit mad!! Never mind 5 days to buckle down.
12/13 135 – no structured walking, travelling back home, unpacking caravan, washing, etc. Today I am back to normal routine.

12/12 - 147.6
12/13 - 148.2 - As expected, the early morning jump up. Hopefully now I've shocked my system, I can continue on track and start dropping again. The fact that it's a larger blip up can likely be contributed to BF making homemade steak lo mein for dinner (hello sodium). Water was good and habits all good yesterday. Today is active rest day but I'll probably be up and down walking around a good chunk of the day. I'll at least do my best to find excuses to get up and move around rather than sit at the desk. BF said he wanted to make roast for tonight so hopefully he remembers to put in on this morning when he wakes up. Dinner was quite early last night (finished eating about 515pm) so my eating window this morning (16 hour fast) opens at 915am. I'll try to push to our lunch (11am) but I have a protein shake and a salmon packet I can have if I need a little extra. With that, my eating window may be longer today since dinner will be late (usually get home 630-ish and can't start eating until about 645-7pm) but it'll reset me to my correct fasting window for breaking it at lunch and finishing it with dinner.

Previous Day's Comments12/08 - Whew, the first weigh in of the round is now over and no random uptick! Food was okay, portions were good, water was excellent. All NF habits completed. Got plenty of stretching in through the day, but checked off goal with a 6 minute morning yoga routine. My body was a bit stiff so throughout the day, I got on the floor and moved in whatever way felt comfortable. Today is 7 reverse lunges each as well as my BW workout from NF so I'll knock those out here shortly. Lots of back to back meetings again so no grocery trip today (and if the meetings hold, tomorrow either) so I have to get creative with a balanced lunch these next couple of days. Friday I'm off so can stock up for the weekend and next week.
12/09 - Scale was making rash decisions this morning. Before I could even get both feet settled on it, it had settled on 146.2. I was not confident so I let it cycle through off and on, tried again. Another rash decision. With only one foot on the scale (the other hovering as I was in the process of stepping from floor to scale) 148.6. Okaaaaay, not even ON the scale. Finally, it acted normal and gave me 2 back to back readings (that took the normal couple of seconds to register) of 146.7. Well then. Today is rest day for NF. QFit wants me to do 9 staircases but I don't have any staircases around that are accessible to me/open to the public (or part of a state park in which you have to schedule a reservation and pay for). All habits good yesterday, water was good. Food was much much better with veggies in all 3 meals. I know dinner is homemade hamburgers at Fam's again tonight and I also know they usually leave me feeling horribly full and the scale jumping up the next day. Will be sure to plan around that with breakfast and lunch as well as eat slower tonight and be mindful of portion size.
12/10 - Actually shocked I'm down. Homemade venison/beef burgers. Also had a small pre-dinner snack of Limburger cheese on wheat thins (Those pushed me over calories by about 100). I did cut my burger in half. Ate half with the bun, the other half without bun. Saved me some calories and helped me up protein without upping carbs anymore. Also only ate cucumber and carrots as a side. Not a single chip, either! Lunch was a frozen burrito because meetings came flooding in back to back around my normal lunch and I only had about 5 minutes to get something and stuff my face. Breakfast was alright with ham/egg/cheese english muffin. No veggies, though. Finished my NF bodyweight workout already this morning. All of NF habits good. Hoping to hit 15 hours fasting despite my workout (NF goal is 15 hours so I'm not worried if I'm below 16. Training my body to adjust to fasting while working out is a lot harder than I thought. This is why fasting fell off my radar when I was training for my 5k. Hangry was not fun). Grocery shopping today. Hopefully I can get in and out before I get too ravenous. I am pretty good about sticking to my list, though, regardless of hunger.
12/11 - We ended up unexpectedly hanging out with some friends late last night and didn't get home until about 2am just talking and hanging out. Woke up at about 8 remembering I'd promised the local grocery store I'd be in early if they'd save me some boxes from overnight stocking (which they did! Yay free moving boxes). I was dressed and ready before my sleepy little brain realized I hadn't weighed. I figure it will likely be a false weight given the late night, lack of sleep, and water anyway so I'm not too upset by it. Back on goals/habits today. Everyone is out of town except the 2 friends we hung out with last night so it's just BF and I today. Making grocery list for dinners next week (I'm commuting) and I'll pick those up tomorrow before football starts. Rest day for NF (thankfully, after that little sleep I'd be really struggling). Not sure what's on the agenda for us today
12/12 - Expected. We wanted to get out of our crazy touristy town. Unfortunately, we had no idea the little cute town we wanted to visit had a Christmas event going on so it was just as toursity. Oh well, change of pace and scenery was still nice. Due to this, though, we ate out for "Linner" at a pizza place. Not too much water, either. Still hit minimum 70oz, but hard to tell with the glasses they provided us. Yesterday was NF rest day. Didn't track my fast, but I believe I was about 16 hours or so. All other habits good. NF promotes "paleo-ish" (more eat real foods and paleo is a good way to frame that). Lunch prep happened this morning, focusing on paleo: roasted broccoli and bell peppers for veggies, roasted sweet potato for my carbs, and baked chicken breast cut into tenders. Have a kiwi for dessert all 4 days. Errands: Grocery shop for staples to improvise dinner (complete, BF cooking dinners and he doesn't know what he wants to make), fill 5gal water jugs (complete), laundry (complete, just need to fold), meal prep (complete, tomorrow's lunch packed and ready to grab-n-go and coffee pot ready and set to brew), and shower (later). Whew. Busy busy. Trying to fast until lunch since I'm only just now starting to feel hungry. Have leftover sausage and broccoli from Friday as well as some sweet potato from this morning's meal prep. Unsure of dinner. Since I'm commuting this week, I expect a bump up this week. Later dinners and early mornings usually result in that. Will be focusing on my NF goals regardless and try to offset. I'm just happy to be pretty steady in the 140s again.

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
12/8 207.8 Walked 1.1 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, shopping, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Dinner out Italian again but I ordered grilled crab cakes. Went to a play (TUTS Little Mermaid) with my sister, DD and DIL which was a nice change of pace but it was a late night.
12/9 207.5 Walked 2.8 + 1 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Healthier eating and this time I included veggies! But I’m craving and snacking on Simply Jif by the spoonful.
12/10 206.6 Walked .7 + 1.5 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Doing great with meals but my snacking is still off … Snickers and then opened a bag of Fritos after coming home from grocery store.
Pregnant DIL was in a car accident. The driver fell asleep behind the wheel at 3pm!! Didn’t even tap the brakes and ran into the back of her. He and his daughter were taken away in ambulance … he was not conscience. DIL and the baby are okay. She was wearing a Pregnancy Bump Strap so no trauma across the tummy from the seat belt! Met her doctor at the hospital for observation and to throughly check her & baby out.
Buy this for every pregnant woman in your life!

12/11 206.4 Walked 3.1 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Went to doctor to see if I can do anything about a lingering 3 week cough before granddaughter is born. No root cause except drainage down throat (not nose). No sinus congestion or headache, no chest congestion, no fever, no aches, clear ears, negative Covid, etc. Got a steroid shot, Z-Pak, & take Zyrtec. Hopefully it will knock out whatever it is.
12/12 207.2 Walked 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Red Beans & Rice with cornbread for dinner was yummy & warm but not great carb wise! I made an extra large batch! Taking some to DD & hubby who are packing to move into their new home and DIL & my son who are expecting our granddaughter soon. Some will be going into the freezer and some left for DH on the nights I’m out this week.
12/13 207.0 Walked 3.4 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Healthy meals planned after grocery shopping and restocking the kitchen! Attended a cookie party today where a friend makes a dozen different cookies (small bites) and invites 75 of her friends to drop by and rate them all. Yummy annual holiday fun activity! After the sugar high I had a lot of energy but really didn’t accomplish much.

**************************************
12/08 140.0 (trend 141.6) hit last round's goal a day late, it's nice to start on a round number. I'm surprised to get a drop today as I was waaaay over calories yesterday so this may just be dehydration, we'll see tomorrow. The family had a Chinese takeaway last night, I had a taste and a few prawn crackers but didn't order a meal, instead I had a ham sandwich and a chocolate bar, probably not the best substitute on reflection! I'll have to try and make amends today.
12/09 139.8 (trend 141.4) Excited to get a glimpse at the 130s! Didn't eat much again yesterday but woke up starving so I think it's safe to say my appetite is back, got to watch out that I don't binge today. I'm craving soup and have a couple of pumpkins left that I grew so may have to make some nom nom. Still haven't got a kitchen though so it'll be a bit tricky, maybe I'll use the slow cooker.
12/10 140.4 (trend 141.2) Had a really lazy day yesterday and probably snacked a bit too much. I need to up my water intake and get back to more structured eating. Taking my daughter (17) for her first vaccine today, 1 hour in the car each way, we'll probably stop off at the garden centre on the way back and go to the cafe, buy a special tree ornament and maybe a holly wreath. OH is away for a few nights so we can binge on tacky Christmas movies and decorate the house a bit. I just need to clean it first, blah. Not all girly stuff though, we're gonna watch the grand prix tomorrow. Mercedes F1 is based in our little town so it's the law that we watch it!
12/11 140.4 (trend 141.1) had a bit of a binge last night, bought some lebkuchen which I absolutely love and holds so many nostalgic memories for me. I probably scoffed about 8 and a packet of crisps and stayed up until the wee small hours so I'm expecting a gain over the next few days. Really tired today so I'm gonna be relaxing and taking it easy.
12/12 142.0 (trend 141.3) Me and the girl decorated the tree, danced around to wham and had far too much baked camembert, bread and mulled wine. Big gain but hopefully only temporary!
12/13 142.2 (trend 141.4) Didn't eat much yesterday but still processing all the rich food from the last few days. Not worried, yet! Gonna try and eat light for the rest of the week.
