Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 180
Replies

63 yr young F, 5ft 4
Round 180 ( my 112th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Need to knuckle down now and make each round count, DS's wedding is later this spring & I want to feel happy with myself on the day. Aim this round to be lower than the start, but a pound would be nice, concentrate on good food choices & think before I put anything in my mouth!! Also eat only half daily exercise calories back.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 then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

3/7 139.4 - 10.36 miles yesterday, calories under, (ate large proportion of exercise ones back) carbs 18g over. Aiming to only eat no more than 50% of exercise calories back today and in the next round. Today is the start of the rest of my life, I need to make it count.
SW: 138.4
Day/Weight/Comment
3/8 138.4 – 14.19 miles walked, just a quarter of exercise calories eaten back. A good solid start yesterday, need to keep it up. Feeling happier with my actions.
3/9 137.8 – tentatively being pleased with this, if I can maintain this to the end of the round I will be well pleased ! But not relaxing! 9 miles walked yesterday, less than 50% of exercise calories eaten back, but carbs 60g over; lunch at DS's whilst helping her with wallpapering.
3/10 138.8 – are the scales playing with me? 10.56 miles, just over half calories eaten back, all macros in credit.
3/11 140 – 4.62 miles, met with DD ,& little DGS, went out to lunch.
3/12 138.8 - 6.82 miles, had to cut it short cuz of rain😢. Away in our caravan for the weekend, more motivated this week; hence brought scales with me. Pleased to see the "disagree" button has disappeared, I think it was totally unnecessary and down hearting. Have a good weekend everyone.

My last round was very successful. I lost 4.2 pounds.
Goals: This round for me is all about getting and staying in the 250's (only 0.5 pounds away). I am 10.4 pounds away from my pre pregnancy weight (250). So, my next couple of rounds will be dedicated to getting to 250.
SW: 280
3/8 - 260.4 - 19.6 pounds down - I have been holding steady for the last few days and I am totally okay with that. With a hectic weekend that was really tough on my body and lack of sleep I really did not expect the scale to move. I'm just really happy that the scale isn't going up. 250 is so close I can taste it.
3/9 - 260.8 - 19.2 pounds down - This whole eat right and exercise is getting old. LOL. I feel like I am hitting a wall, but I'm still pushing. I'm still here.
3/10 - 260.8 - 19.2 pounds down - Finally got some good sleep yesterday. Went to bed nice and early. I will definitely be working out tonight.
3/11 - 260.0 - Down 20 pounds - I'm back baby! I worked out last night and it felt good. Got in more than enough rest. Ate well. I prepared my food in the morning and didn't dread it. I see you 250's. Come to mama!
3/12 - 259.6 - Down 20.4 pounds - yes, yes, yes! I worked for this. I earned it! First 20 pounds gone. 9.4 pounds away from my pre pregnancy weight. I’ve never been this consistent and I am proud of myself.

I went a little crazy last night—cheese & triscuits, cinnamon toast. What? Oh, well, all in all I’m doing better with the snacks, so I won’t beat myself silly over this. Total calories were right around maintenance, so not too bad. But why, I ask myself, why?
3/09 - 178.4
I take it back. I’m not doing better with snacks, at least not last night. I think I’m going to take a close look at what I ate earlier on days I’ve gone crazy at night. I do know that carb-heavy dinners make me want more carbs later. Maybe there’s a really clear pattern I can make myself aware of. But, to paraphrase Scarlet, today’s another day, and I started with a healthy egg, cheese, & Canadian bacon on whole grain muffin breakfast. Much better than that arches place makes!
3/10 - 178
Still crazy after all these pounds, but drifting toward better.
3/11 - 179.6
Ok, time lag from 2&3 days ago. I was on track yesterday. If I stick to the plan, it will self correct. I have a low-cal, high-protein day planned. All good. Happy Friday!
3/12 - 181
What??? Whatever. Some of it must be H2O. I did have popcorn last night, but not THAT much! Very weird, very discouraging. Harumph. No hugs needed—I’m not upset, just bewildered. Anyway, the next 8 weeks will be very physical. I have Rory signed up for 6 classes (two levels of competition obedience, rally, scent work, agility, and run through for upcoming obedience trial, and I plan to get back to tracking training two days a week (lots of walking) plus regular long walks. And gardening season is coming right up. That should help!

3/11: 198.2 (+6.0) It was a whirlwind trip to Dallas, meeting up with several of my fellow artists to take an assemblage class. We had a wonderful time, drank lots of wine and a very salty margarita. I learned so much in the class and spent most days sitting working on my sculpture. It’s not done yet, but I love it. I’m guessing the salt played a big role in this gain, but it will work its way off over the next week and then I’ll be ready to get to a new low. Worth every calorie, laugh, chocolate and splatter of paint.
3/12: 197.4 (+5.2) I got home and spent some time with my eighteen year old cat, Bubba. He’s been struggling lately and I knew the time would come. A friend stayed with him at the house while I was out of town and he was so excited to see me. Later in the evening, he took a turn for the worse and it was time. I think he waited for me. So, I’m giving myself some grace and time. I’m going to miss that little guy. He was an amazing cat and had a long adventurous life. Tomorrow is the day I’m going to get back on track and back in my routine.13 -

No change from yesterday. I feel puffy today though. And sore from weight training yesterday. But wishing for a good round for everyone!
03/09: 185 lbs (+0.6)
Had a much needed rest day yesterday, only a morning walk and some stretching. I usually get a slight bump anytime I do that. Not concerned in the slightest!

Haven't been sleeping well. Waking up 4-5 hours before the alarm. Otherwise I'm sticking to my plans.

Still feeling bloated. Managed to get back to sleep quicker than the last couple days after waking up at 2am for no reason. Feel more rested today so plan to be more active.
03/12: 182.2 lbs (-3.2)
I weighed twice to be sure. Drank a lot of water yesterday, peed a lot too. And slept better. Think the bloat is the answer. Anyway, new low!

Day/Weight/Comment
03/07 …..198.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/08 …..197.8 ….. (Trend weight 196.9) I don’t think I’m eating enough or well enough at dinner. My snacks are reasonable (in most cases) but too many. Also, I’ve been staying up a bit later for time to myself (read, catch up on TV etc) so more time for snacks. I will have to plan better.
03/09 …..197.8 ….. [/color=[black] Trend weight 197.0) I made dinner for DD, DGS and a family friend. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, asparagus and dinner rolls. My daughter followed it up by bringing in ice cream and carmel sauce. I kept my quantities good. I got in a few extra steps in general.
03/10 …..198.0 ….. (Trend weight 197.1) No TMI and I know that would help the scale. A good day overall yesterday but very little calorie burn due to having company most of the day. Lots of time at the kitchen table.
03/11 …..198.0 ….. (Trend weight 197.2) A much better well-planned day yesterday dietary-wise. Low level movement however. Sleep and bathroom duty both slightly better. No change on scale but it should be coming.
03/12 …..199.2 ….. (Trend weight 197.4) Ut oh. Looks like I’m going to get pretty hungry today because I will NOT go back to 200. Very odd though. Yesterday was another pretty good eating day honestly. I think this very low level movement is really hurting my efforts.

GW-149
3/8-171-Bloated as all get out. Yesterday was a long busy day....board meeting then errands. All of this makes me eat garbage. Put all groceries away then sat down to type out meeting minutes while all was still fresh. Then pulled out treasurer bag for another group and got the reports for that meeting on Thursday. I am at the point where I cannot do everything and just need to say NO. I have not been exercising and have not ridden the fat horse in 2 days. Today is a new day and a new round and it starts NOW. I sure am glad you are all here!☕️
3/9-169-Off to a good start. Finished quilting the old fashioned quilt and just need to get the binding on it. Short horse ride. Little baking today for our quilting bake sale tomorrow. Should get a walk in later this afternoon.
3/10-168-Working half day, will walk this morning first. Light, but sufficient eating yesterday.
3/11-DNW- Brought baked goods to quilting and sampled them as I packed them up. Walked 2 miles before work. Work again today and it’s all day on my feet at the quilt shop, so I will be tired when I get home. Dinner will be easy.
3/12-167-168-167-I’m on a roll and now have a problem: tonight is a crab feed with all the bread I would never want....cold French bread..... I just need to tell myself all day that it is not worth it. Walked 2 miles working in the quilt shop and will do it again today. The horse is loving his break I am giving him.....11 -

Day/Weight/Comment
3/8: 138.4 - Whoosh! Normal workout and eating yesterday, although I really wasn’t that hungry and consequently didn’t eat my first meal until around 2pm. Good sleep as well.
3/9: 138.4 - I’m a few pounds away from goal weight, so I finally went out and bought a couple of new pairs of jeans yesterday since even the smallest pants in my closet were too loose. I have pretty much been living in workout leggings for the last 6 months. It’s a much more enjoyable experience shopping when your body looks better in clothes. Normal workout and eating yesterday. So-so sleep.
3/10: 138.2 - Got my workout in despite a bit of a headache. Ate okay, but the majority of calories were dinner/dessert since I wasn’t feeling great until about 2pm. Woke up way too early this morning.
3/11: 139.3 - Normal workouts. However, a night of wine, chocolate, cheese and nuts (and carbs) with friends might have temporarily done me in. It was wonderful to see everyone though.
3/12: 139.1 - Instead of my normal workout, I did a 6 mile walk. Ate all of my exercise calories back.

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. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

3/8 121.5 Continued reflection of Sunday’s party. Today (neighbor’s actual b-day) we’re taking her to Golden Corral where I can get meat and veg/salad.
3/9 120.0
3/10 120.0
3/11 121.5 Ham and beans and cornbread. Sadly I expected this. I didn’t eat much but haven’t made them in at least 2.5 years and they were so good. I ate mostly ham. To whoever mentioned Leslie Sansone 5K with a Twist - thank you! I did a mile yesterday and will continue to work on this. After doing pretty much nothing for 2 years, this is a beginning!

3/8- 186.6 NEW LOW! I spent a lot of time on my feet yesterday, so I was pleasantly surprised by this drop. 67 net carbs and step goal hit.
3/9- 185.6 I couldn’t be happier! I’m now comfortable saying I’ve broken my stall. 170s here I come! 85 net carbs, step goal hit, and Pelo ride done. Ready to make today amazing!
3/10- 184.8 47 net carbs and step goal hit. It’s so nice to sew downward movement again. I’m loving this!
3/11- 183.8 58 net carbs, steps hit, and Pelo ride done. Feeling really good this week!
3/12- 183.8 Seems the monthly hormonal shift is setting in. At least it seems more normal this time around than how it’s been during the stall! 73 net carbs and step goal hit. It’s snowing here today, so I’ll be spending some time in the kitchen making cheese. It’s the perfect snowy day activity!11 -

Round # 47 for me!
SW: 371.6 (6000 step goal, goal to lose 2 to 3 lbs. each challenge, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out more than once every 10-day challenge)
Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
3/08 371.6 – 7161 steps. Yesterday was ok. Too much cheese but ok.
3/09 370.4 – 5154 steps.
3/10 370.4 – 7902 steps. Back on track! Did well at the office yesterday.
3/11 370.4 – 6071 steps. TGIF!
3/12 370.4 – 6286 steps. Holding steady…. I think this is the longest I have gone without a drop and have been under calories. If I am not going up is all that matters right now. The drop will come sooner or later, my mission is to maintain the course. I have a physical on March 28th and my goal is to be under 360 by that appointment. Not impossible for sure. I know what to do. Have a great weekend and stay safe!

Net change 2022 = SW 380.0 EW 371.6 (-8.4) Overall goal: 12-18 lbs.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. 9 -
