Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 189

starting a little late: weighing every day will be difficult, i usually only weigh in on sunday. i've been bouncing back and forth with my weight, a tiny gain, a tiny loss. think i will add a little exercise to the dieting plan.

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE👍👍

SW: 179.2
Day/Weight/Comment
5/27
5/28
5/29: 179.2 30 minute walk @2.5mph 1691 calories
5/30: 178.6 1193 calories
5/31: 176.6 30 minute walk @ 2.5 mph 1254 calories
6/1 : 178 1100 calories (and there is the bounce. not letting it bother me, 'cause my normal weigh in is sunday. when i report my weight on sunday i'll still have lost some). not sure if i'll be walking for a little while. i have arthritis in the hips. the walk yesterday i wasn't sure if i would make it home. healthy weight must come with a healthy body.

6/2 : 178, 1538 calories. going to have to do better. i caught myself "boredom" eating. i will be sure to set higher standards of myself tomorrow.

6/3 : 178.2, 1224 calories not a bad day. disappointed with my sandwiches. i used to make them with joseph's flax, oat bran, wheat lavish bread. the grocery store didn't have that when i went shopping. decided to buy pepperidge farm very thin whole wheat. it'll be excellent for toast, but for sandwich? naaah. making a mental note to buy extra joseph's when they're back... i'll freeze it.

6/4 : 178.6 1609 calories. was my calorie intake poor choices? i don't think so. it's disappointing to see my weight continue to go up.... but there's other things to consider. i haven't been able to walk for several days, and my quitting smoking has been going very well. i am still using the step 2 patch, but sometimes i forget to replace it, and when stress triggers the "i NEED a cigarette" i'm able to fight past the urge. maybe i'm seeing things right/wrong. i've consumed 350 less calories this week than needed to "maintain" without the exercise, so my weight is probably right where it should be.

6/5 : 180.2 1037 calories. hmmmm. not really understanding how the app keeps telling me i'll weigh less in 5 weeks, but my weight keeps going up. it's proving to be quite the disappointment.

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.

6/06 - Water weight, I'm guessing. Also lack of sleep. Triple digit temperatures and working outside. Simply couldn't keep up no matter how hard I tried. I did accept the remote job on Friday. Waiting to hear from my current job HR and then from new job about all the information needed for onboarding. Anxiety through the roof with this transition right now, but I'm coping best I can. Busy week for work even before the added stress of handoff so hopefully days will go fast.
6/07 - Insight (hindsight?) from yesterday is TOM decided to make an appearance which, on top of the weekend water debacle (which I rectified to the best of my ability yesterday and will continue today) and sleep, accounts perfectly for the increase. Still dealing with TOM bloat today, plus some salt from dinner last night. Back on track, though. Steak and green beans for dinner last night as well as lunch today. Breakfast is the usual overnight oats. Dinner will be some form of "Taco Tuesday" fare, whether that be burritos, tacos (street or regular), enchiladas, nachos or something else. Hoping an email today so I can begin process for background check and hopefully schedule my drug test for this Friday as I'm going on vacation Wednesday next week until Sunday plus my last 2 days of work filled with out-processing Monday-Tuesday. Start date is Monday after we get back from vacation. Luckily ma helped me gather all my addresses for the last 7 years (required) and that's the hardest part of it all. Just takes the longest once submitted so best to get it done as soon as possible after I get the information packet to submit. Whew. Lots and lots of busy work finishing my assignments at this job as much as possible and getting all the on-boarding for new one with such a tight deadline.
