Update: I just did my week-late bodyweight workout. I was feeling more energetic after getting my state vehicle inspections for renewals done. And I'm already sore. It was harder than normal. But I did it and I'm dang proud of myself. That is all.

Hi guys! Happy to be joining in this round. This challenge feels like home. It’s helped me out before, and everytime I need a reset this challenges helps me get back on track 💕

Goal- limit alcohol intake. Wine has been my go to stress reliever these last few years, looking to hopefully cut the habit as it’s getting in the way of my weight loss. I’ve Maintained in the 190-200 range for a year now And looking to finally make the changes.

Yesterday we celebrated our youngest DGS 2nd birthday; 18 months ago we didn't know whether we would see this day. He was born with a genetic condition causing a very seriously diseased liver, at the tender age of 6 months he was given new life by the generosity of a family who had lost their loved one and agreed to donate her liver. We shall be eternally grateful to her, her family, the organ donation scheme and the amazing NHS. I would like to take the opportunity of asking you all whether you have thought about donating your organs after you are gone and whether you have had the conversations about it with your loved ones; we never thought it could happen in our family, but you never know. A part of her continues to live on in our little DGS, she has given him life; we shall never forget and we shall be eternally grateful.

I'm so happy to hear this! Happy birthday to that little guy and many thanks to his guardian angel. On the 22nd, our little guy marked 1 year with his new liver and we are blessed daily by the sacrifice of his guardian angel and their family. Fam has the contact information for them and is putting together a 1 year thank you for them so they can, hopefully, still feel connected to their angel. (They chose to allow direct contact, we are grateful to share a piece of their angel with them however we can)

Organ donors are honestly the best. Thankful every day to those who are selfless enough to allow others to live through their donation. Guardian angels live among us and we just may not yet know it.

That's wonderful that they are in touch and have that connection; DD sent a thank you letter and enclosed a couple of photo's for our angel's family for the organ donation organisation to pass on, but they have chosen to remain anonymous.

Good news for your little godson too, congratulations on his one year liversary, modern medicine & generosity are truly marvellous !

Round 176 (108th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine. Another round, I prove time and time again, round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow! Would like to lose that 2.8 pound that I gained last round during this one.

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.

1/27 137.6 - 10.15 miles walked and an hours yoga. Calories & all macros in credit. Yesterday we celebrated our youngest DGS 2nd birthday; 18 months ago we didn't know whether we would see this day. He was born with a genetic condition causing a very seriously diseased liver, at the tender age of 6 months he was given new life by the generosity of a family who had lost their loved one and agreed to donate her liver.

A part of her continues to live on in our little DGS, she has given him life; we shall never forget and we shall be eternally grateful.
1/28 138 - 7.46 miles walked yesterday. Had way too many calories & in particular carbs, caused me to feel rough all night & I couldn't sleep with all the sugar in my system, I know it's not doing me any good so why? Will I ever learn, don't know why I keep doing this. I'm frustrated with myself & it's the same old same old! What can I say!!

Starting weight: 205.5 lbs
Goal weight: 140 lbs
Current weight: 196.2 lbs
Total weight lost: 9 lbs

Round #175 -1 lb 5 oz

I started the 52 lbs in 52 weeks challenge 5th January but I need the daily accountability, especially this week as I'm approaching mid-cycle, which makes ne extra hungry!

Round #176 SW 196.2 lbs

27/01 196.0 lbs
This is going to be a hard week as I'm mid-cycle, and when I've lost weight in the past this has always been the week I've had weird gains. It'll be interesting to see the fluctuations but harder to stay motivated. Really hoping to make 195.5 lbs for my weekly weigh-in on Saturday 🤞

28/01 195.6 lbs
I was so strict and even kept my carbs to 100g yesterday. Psychologically I feel like I really need a loss on my weekly weigh-in tomorrow. I know a maintain/gain will happen eventually, I just don't think I'm ready for it yet 🤔

Day/Weight/Comment

1/27 - 146 - I've kept up with my food diary and steps. This frigid weather really tests my strength to resist comfort food. I bought some diet hot chocolate (25 calories) to get me through my afternoon munchies at the office.
1/28 - 146 - I had some extra sodium yesterday and I will probably have extra tonight. I'll try to drink more water to compensate.

@jaccimc63 Where do you find diet hot chocolate??

Nestle makes a 25 calorie version that I pick up from Amazon. 30 packets for about $10. If I make it at home, I'll throw on a dab of Reddi-Whip and sprinkle some cinnamon on top to make it seem really indulgent.

Day/Weight/Comment

01/27 - 198.4 - Stayed below 200 this morning but the real test will be if I can maintain this through the weekend. Ate pretty well yesterday and definitely at a deficit considering all the working out I did. This morning woke up and did essentially an hour of leg workouts so I fully expect to not be able to move tomorrow lol.
01/28 - 199.7 - Have to imagine just normal water fluctuations here, especially considering my workouts this morning weren't as sweat-inducing. I was supposed to do a 20 minute lower body workout but after yesterday my body said NO! and I listened. Sunday will mark the 1 year anniversary of the 6 day stay in the hospital and 1.5 months on supplemental oxygen. I'm going to use my lungs hard this weekend in celebration of making it through that.

YOU CAN’T WALK YOUR WAY OUT OF A BAD DIET. Last year I walked over 500 miles and still gained weight.

Losing weight will help me -
…feel healthy and strong again.
…fit comfortably into my work clothes.
…slide on a pair of jeans.
…hike in the spring.
…look good for my daughter’s high school graduation.

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.

I need to be back here with you all after a 5-week hiatus. I had my scale with me, which only confirmed my need for a disciplined approach.

I am afraid I have not kept up with reading your posts over the past weeks, so I am hoping all is well with my old friends. I was made aware of the fragility of life when my 61-year-old neighbor / good friend passed away while I was away. Complications from Covid seems to be the reason.

And hello to those of you who have joined since mid-December.

1/27: 212.8
Ok, back at the tracking after a long lazy break from reality. Well, not a total break. I kept one oar in the water at all times regarding work. But you will never convince me that remote working is more efficient than in-person presence at the office. (Take it with a grain of salt because I am the same guy who said computer aided design will never replace hand drafting. Ha!)

Anyway… I have some work to do on this body of mine. I have my annual holiday-damage-control to do. JGMTD176

Yesterday was a day where I chose to eat the comfort food set before me. Pot roast at Rotary lunch, and cake.

On another note, I dislike winter very much. Going to try to get moving this weekend somehow.

1/28- 186.8 Well, my body is not following its usual pattern this time around! Usually by now, I’m in the thick of a 10 day stall, not dropping 2 lbs overnight! I’ll take it though, that’s for sure! 69 net carbs yesterday, steps hit, and Pelo ride done.

I was really craving something sweet last night, but I resisted. I did have some air-popped popcorn. I’m trying to stop the night munching this round. I never used to do this—not sure how I got into this habit. With the brutal cold I haven’t been getting much exercise, but we have two+ hours of doggy school tonight, so that will get me moving a bit. Stay warm, all!

1/28 - 178.6, 178.5, 1408
It was nice to get out to doggy school and move a bit last night—it’s been too cold for me outdoors. I don’t plan to go anywhere today—brrrrr.

1/28 - 147.0 - Sigh, no TMI for 2 days now. I feel the heaviness, but don't look or feel bloated, so that's all I can think of. Food yesterday was more balanced than it has been in a week, so I'm sure my body is simply re-adjusting as well. Water was good, per usual. Workout complete yesterday. Not so sore today, but I can feel it a tad. BigBro (as I will refer to BF's oldest son) will be home around dinner, assuming his flights have no delay. I have to take pup to get follow up shots, nails trimmed, and ears looked at (worried she has ear infection) this morning and then go grocery shopping, hopefully early enough to miss the weekend stupidity. We're guessing Fam will have us over for dinner as we usually do on Fridays. Particularly since they adore the kids and are excited to see BigBro. If not, I'm coming up with a backup plan for dinner for us. Mom is doing TONS better now she's home. Environment really does play a factor in it all. BF's sister is in ICU. Stage 4 brain AND lung cancer, plus a blood clot in her lung. New inspection complete with the "pending repair" status has been submitted to loan manager. Sellers agreed to shock well and get new sample which should be cleared today or Monday. Waiting on that and appraisal now. Whew.

Previous Day's Comments

1/27 - I'm back. Kind of. I'll try to make summary quick (still long, lots to catch up on): 1) Mammogram and ultrasound confirmed doc's suspicions that the lump is just dense tissue. Whew. No higher risk than any other 30 year old. Resume annual mammograms at age 40 unless something else presents. HUGE weight off my shoulders 2) Mom discharged from hospital after a week last night. Still not 100% but no surgery. On antibiotics still, but her body was able to heal naturally so hoping the trend continues from home. Providing her with plenty of research to help avoid another issue like this (plus it's hereditary, like so much else, so I'm taking precautionary steps to avoid as I've also already had a perforated intestine, just not nearly as bad as hers) 3) House is still moving. We were able to get a contractor out to submit a quote. With that quote, we negotiated higher closing cost on their end to "pay" for the repairs. The inspector is amending report for VA to state the repairs are pending and should be good. He was informed late yesterday so hopefully by tomorrow that'll be complete. Water test is still pending, but our Agent said it could take up to a week (samples submitted Monday) 4) BF's oldest son is having problems with his mom and she's now fearful of what comes next so tomorrow he flies down to live with us. This is at least the rest of the school year and through summer break. Will reassess closer to next school year whether he goes back to his mom's with his brother and sister at end of summer. He's never acted out here so I have all the faith he will be much better here and can relax into a happy life again. 5) I'm off track quite a bit. Just trying to maintain at this point, though I'm happy to see the scale has dropped in the last couple days. Been successful at not stress snacking too much (just a quick snack of almonds or peanut butter when I'm feeling hungry. Just enough to hold me over until my next meal.) Hopefully with the lessening of stress, my fatigue will fade enough that I can push through a bodyweight workout. They aren't horribly exhausting, but I've been struggling to do no physical activity and not feel like I could fall asleep standing up. Today is better already so thinking tomorrow I will schedule a workout, even if it's just a soothing yoga and not my normal bodyweight strength workout. One thing that has been a success? Through this group, I've learned to listen to my body and not overwhelm it for the sake of "progress". Sometimes progress is taking a step back to allow things to calm down before picking back up. So thank you all for teaching me it's okay to not be perfect. I'm in a much better place now than I would be if I hadn't learned that lesson and went through this.
