Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 191

musicsax · June 2022

64 yr young F, 5ft 4
Round 191 ( my 123rd). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

Goal this round is just to lose, no binges,& keep within calories.

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.

Sparx_81 · June 2022

Hi all,

I was taking part in these challenges regularly until 2020..... then I fell off the wagon badly!!! Now it is time to get back up, dust myself off and start all over again!!!!

My name is Michelle, originally from Ireland but living in Stockholm, Sweden. I am 41 and a mother to 3 sons plus 2 stepsons. Working towards a marathon on 30th October so I have 18 weeks to dig down and work hard!

Starting weight 104kg (19th June 2022)

My goals... there are a few... are....
1. to stick to my workout schedule
2. drink 3 litres a day, minimum (it's currently 30C here so I need to watch my hydration!)
3. Pay attention to my calories and macros (may need adjusting to take account of extra training)

Day/Weight/Comment

6/26 DNW Joining in the evening so will enter an official number tomorrow morning!
6/27 103.4kg. My target is to lose 1kg over the 10 days, so 100g a day... ish.
6/28 102.7 nice little drop.... drank 3.8 litres of water, 30 min jillian michaels workout in the morning, 30 min spin in the evening, 1 hour of gardening in my allotment, cycled to and from allotment (5km) and then to and from swedish class (3km). Cal target was 1800 but I was at 1900 at the end of the day.... but I think the extra activity allowed for it. Macros were set at 50:30:20, came in at 45:30:25. So need to increase cards a bit and drop fat! Due to cycle 28km and jog 5km today. 30C here today so water will be important!

@quiltingjane Where IS @grandmajackie lately? Is she OK? I don't think I've seen her since I came back to the group. Isn't she the one who started the group? Hope she is ok.

Just joining on 6/28. I love the idea of this thread. Below are my stats. I am using a lower carb diet (Whole30/Paleo) pretty much. I have found it to be manageable and has helped me lose 11 pounds so far this time around.

ROUND 188
SW: 179.2

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.

ROUND 189
SW: 180.2

Day/Weight/Comment

6/6: 179, my eating was a mess today, macro's messed up, calories exceeded. i did get a good 2mi. walk in @3.0mph. i have also graduated to step 3 with the nicotine patch, that was a difficult experience also (yay me.... i didn't give in!) i'd like to go for another walk tonight, but worry about the arthritis. maybe a nice slow stroll around the community.

6/7: 178.8 my eating is still a mess, macro's still messed up, now i have seriously lagged in calories. it was too hot to sleep last night, so when i finally got to sleep i ended up waking up too late to take a walk. heat and humidity do not agree with me. i'd like to go out now to walk, but sometime tonight the county is spraying for mosquito's (not even sure if my area is being sprayed, just don't want to get caught in it if it is). every thing seems disappointing today, but i do have a beautiful cucumber in my garden that i will pick tomorrow morning!

6/8: 178.2 that's not a true weight loss. previously, i have been weighing myself at all different times of the day, so my weight would vary. i think i have found the perfect time in the morning to get on that scale. hopefully, i can continue to hit the scale about the same time in the morning to get an accurate weight gain/loss. calories today were pretty good. macros still terrible. took a 1.5mi walk @3.0mph, so i'm feeling good that i got that in. cigarette cravings are still high, and a couple times today i replaced smoking with food.... not good.

6/9: 178.2 way over in my fats, way under in my carbs, protein just about perfect. bacon is one of my weaknesses... i just couldn't resist those 2 extra pieces this morning. i had planned on just one. today was a hectic day inside the house. the AC needs replacing ($$$), and i was bouncing back in forth between chores to stay out of the tech's way. it's my off day from walking which i am glad of. surprisingly, it's not arthritis that's giving me trouble, it's pain in the arch of my foot (i believe it to be plantar fasciitis, but have never had it diagnosed). have it wrapped with ace bandage so pressure is applied. maybe tomorrow i will get out and purchase duct tape to wrap it in (believe it or not, it works!)

6/10: 178 today... craving comfort food. went over in calories and waaay over in sodium. dreading my weight in tomorrow, but that's the price i pay.

6/11: 178...no loss, no gain which i am feeling grateful of. again today i exceeded calories. i did get to go for a walk though, 1.5mi @3.0mph. i've got my ear buds charging (maybe i'll go out late tonight and dance around). tomorrow i am going to "the sons of italy" lodge to make my membership official. no, i'm not italian (although the way i eat some pasta, you might think so). I live in a gated community, and have only met people at least 20 yrs. older or at least 20 yrs younger than myself. i'm hoping i can meet some people at the lodge with similar likes as myself so i can get out and do more.

6/12: 179... and there is (some?) of the weight i've been expecting to see. i am hoping to be more mindful of my sodium intake (it is a little difficult, as i have italian cured meats (sopressata and prosciutto which i must be sure NEVER to purchase again) in the fridge. the person i live with had said he wanted tuna mixed up for sandwiches. i made it for him, and now after drinking too much and not feeling well after eating the sandwich, he has decided he doesn't want to eat any more of it. sometimes i wonder if he's trying to sabotage me, knowing that i will not throw food away. i try eating it in moderation before it spoils, but obviously that hasn't worked out so well for me.

6/13: 180.8 hopefully this is all that will show up! i mean honestly.... i didn't exceed my calories by THAT much, and my walks aren't figured into my calorie allowance. is it the salt? well, i made a decision to plan all those cured meats into my meals immediately, so i'm not dragging out the high sodium. making to to at least drink 8 cups water (hopefully to flush some out of my system). i did get to walk 2mi @3.0mph. i had the ear buds in, and i didn't want to stop. it was after 11pm, so figured i should before neighbors thought i was someone snooping around looking to commit a burglary.

6/14: 178.2 well, originally the scale said 177.8 and i didn't believe it so went back and did it again. came up with the 178.2 i like that number, so i'm going to keep it and not go back again. (i lied, i went back again this time it said 177.6 stupid battery operated digital scale!) the HVAC people were here yesterday putting in the new AC from 9am to 7:30pm. no AC hot, humid, and miserable in the house all day, and they still have to come back today to finish. at least the AC is back on. i hope they don't have to turn it off again. calories and macros have been good the past couple days, and that cured meat is gone (there was only a total of 6oz), so sodium should start to be at a reasonable level. i have also been measuring my inches, just the 3 that originally show up in the MFP app., neck, waist, and hips. i do only 1 on a rotating basis so it takes 3 weeks of MFP before the area gets a new measurement. i have been doing this for 9 weeks. this past sunday was "hip" day which is the only measurement which has ever showed any loss. i went down 1 inch.

6/15: 178.2 well, it looks like i picked the correct weight to list yesterday. i will be leaving this afternoon to visit with my father up north. i'm expecting a terrible diet, and weight gain. it's OK though, it's a small price to pay to visit your dad when they're in their mid 80's. i'm wishing you all the best of luck in the next week, and i will be back posting probably for the last couple days in round 190

ROUND 190
SW: ?

6/24 176.6 back from vacation. was i stressing over gaining weight so i didn't eat as much, or was i not stress eating? kinda like that old tootsie pop commercial, "the world may never know".

6/25 175.8 don't believe everything you see. it HAS to be my scale messing with me again because everyone knows i don't lose almost a pound overnight. someday i will invest in a better scale. until then....i'm enjoying the tiny fibs it tells me every once in a while.

ROUND 191
SW: 174.4

Day/Weight/Comment

6/26: 174.4 i will keep accepting these lower weights my scale is spitting out, just as i will accept the higher ones when it decides to tell the truth. maybe it's all my fault, and i should change the batteries? I forgot to mention my failures that have occurred since vacation. i am ashamed to say i have had a set back in my quitting smoking. i know that i will have to get that under control as well as my eating habits. i have also failed in my walking. i will need to get motivated and include that also. i have emotional stress in my life right now, which i see an end to in the future but that will take a few months. my weeks vacation visiting with family was nothing but smiles and laughter. driving home my failures began, and i realized i must do something besides diet and exercise for myself. i will continue to recognize my failures, but i will not beat myself up over them. a slow and steady path in the right direction is what i have chosen.

6/27: 174.4 i looked up how many calories i should be eating if i am sedentary and oh lordy lordy they're really trying to starve people! i did my check in yesterday and "whoop whoop" my neck is 1/2 in thinner! wow! was that a good feeling! i still haven't gotten back to my walks outside. i did spend 3 hours walking in a circle around my livingroom yesterday, and i think i am going to start calling the time i struggle with the dog to take her medicine "my cardio workout".

6/28: 174.8 OK scale... i must weigh 174.(something). my calories were good, my macros were good. my exercise was non-existant. aaarrrgggh, i thought getting back to exercising would be easier than this.

I see why you have to keep a document on your device to repost. I didn't in the last round and could never find it again. I enjoy reading everyone else's comments. I think this challenge will help me to think about why I'm on plan or off plan.

Round Goal Weight: There is a week left in this round so I’d like to lose 1 pound in 7 days.

6/28 – 138.6 Yesterday was a good day. I got in a 4 mile walk and ate healthy on program foods. It helps that I was busy which keeps me from snacking morethan planned.

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

6/26 - 179.6
I know half a pound isn’t significant, but still….Ever since the doctor’s dietitian put me on that very restrictive elimination diet 4 years ago to look for sensitivities (I have none), I find it harder than it’s ever been in my life to lose weight, and oh so easy to gain. I should have known better, but the quick weight loss then was so gratifying I didn’t question it. They — especially the dietician —should have known better for sure! Ok, just letting off steam, because it’s so frustrating to find it so hard to lose when I’m sticking to my food goals. No hugs needed, I’m just venting, and I’ll keep sticking to it. Have a lovely Sunday!

6/27 - 180
Ok, whatever. I did have some rhubarb ginger crisp last night, but my overall calories were fine. I made my 26th different weekly soup yesterday—West African Peanut Soup with chicken. Really good! This soup challenge has been a lot of fun. Now to find 26 more different soups! 🍵

6/26 / 167.8 / Yesterday I got my exercise by walking around our campground. The weather was pretty decent for most of the day. Stayed on track with my food and got a decent amount of water and the big post vacation whoosh I was expecting occurred this morning. I still have a ways to go but the worst of the bulk is gone. Today we take our friends on our boat and then head home to get ready to go back to work in the morning.
6/27 / 165.2 / Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps by walking to and from the boat while we were at the lake, and then with a final walk before bed with my husband and dog. The weather was beautiful and I had another very good day. Feeling much better as the vacation bloat clears away.
6/28 / 163.6 / Back down to my maintenance range and feeling great. Yesterday I got my 10,000 steps and did my long ride on the Peloton (60 minutes). Work was busy getting back into the swing of things and we were plagued with IT issues. Into the office today!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/26 - 211.1 - This started out as a good day, but then I took my son to the mall. That means we had to get a Cinnabon. Then we got home and watched the Stanley Cup playoffs (GO AVS!!!). I had one too many beers. If I would have had one less beer and no cinnabon, I would have stayed in my calorie range. Time to start being more mindful and move forward.

6/27 - 211.5 (+.4) - I made good food choices while I was at work, but once I get home that all goes out the window. I decide to have a couple of beers and snack until dinner is ready. I think I need to up my protein during the day so I'm not starving when I get home.

I am petrified about sharing good news here, for fear that you will ask me for a song to dance to. HA! Chalk it up to my phobia of public dancing. I have two left feet and one of them fell asleep.

I am a heck of a toe tapper though.

Determined to get back into shape & do the things I love. Started this journey 4/4/22 at 180lbs and wish I would have found this amazing group sooner.
- Jenn / UGW: ~130lbs. fit & toned

I like to dance in celebration of those who inspire me on this journey. Don’t be surprised if I ask you for a song to add to my workout playlist.

@JbeanR0212 I found that (“I Gotta Feeling”) to be a good beat for walking and I think it played every time I got on the treadmill! I have no idea what the lyrics are other than “tonight’s gonna be a good night, I gotta feeling.”

@DaffyGirl88 Cool! I have been planning to try Lanebreak. Denis is my favorite. He's a great coach and entertaining (they all are). Denis makes me feel like he's talking to me, and reminds me about my posture, etc., just at the moment I'm starting to slouch (LOL).

@RockinRobyn672 my favorite is when he says "If you're starting to feel like you're sponsored by the letter C." 😂😂 I can only do the 5 minute Lanebreaks. I get so focused on having to change lanes when I need to that I'm afraid to drink any water and have my hands be busy. LOL Definitely try it, but watch Cody's video on how it works first. 👍

@_JeffreyD_ you never keep the previous days in your post so I’m always wondering exactly where you are at except for le fry resistance 😉. Now I know it’s been your plan all along to keep me wondering or force me to scroll 😂. I’m far from a good dancer but my living room and kids don’t judge too harshly. In fact I do well until my bumbly 183lb Saint Bernard gets mega excited and tries to join in. The point is to feel great about yourself and others while getting some movement in. I don’t know where you are exactly but I know you’ve been fairly consistent on that 199 journey. Feel free to give me a song & toe tap away!

@UTMom81 I’m not sure where @GrandmaJackie went. She is still on MFP or was until recently. My newsfeed doesn’t come up first thing but that is where I have seen her. The group was originated by @hillcrestbaby, I believe, but when I joined in June of 2017, it was @cynda63 who was starting the posts. I think Jackie took over and Cynda disappeared.

@_JeffreyD_ I’m the same when it comes to dancing. As a kid, I watched myself dance in a mirror. HOLY COW!! My idea of dancing in public is feet firmly planted, body swaying to the music!

PS. Toe tapping is still movement, isn’t it?🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️😁

6/26: 158.2 - today is my “relaxed eating” day so I fully anticipate a gain on the scale tomorrow. I will take it because I feel great, I still tracked all of my food (a huge win for me), I still got some movement in, and I’m ready to jump into tomorrow!
6/27: 157.9 - feeling a little under the weather today, but pleasantly surprised at my weigh in this morning. I’m feeling extra hungry and a little headachy today but I had a good workout this morning so that definitely helped.
6/28: 156.9 - yesterday ended up being a great day! I was able to avoid a binge, I ate well within my calorie range, and had a good workout. I started this morning big with a workout but we have pizza every Tuesday night, so I generally expect a little gain on Wednesday mornings.

Day, Weight, Comment

6/26 - 166.7 - 14,500 steps / 74 active minutes. Had a few/several adult beverages and didn’t really track but ate mindfully. Sandwich, veggies and a few treats at the tea. Then 2 tiny pieces of pizza and a small amount of chips. This number is mostly puff and water not worried at all. I work at this so I can enjoy these days. Oh … I had many people tell me that I was looking good and that they see me walking lol.
6/27 - 167.2* - 15,300 / 90. Baby shower lots of sitting, and hot weather!! Did get a walk in. SO called to say he should be flying home today. Happy but it kinda means it will take longer to drop back down, eh will see. No hugs needed I was expecting this and it will get back down soon, all part of it.

6/28 - 168.1 - 16,700 / 113. Hooray SO is home and my tummy is full of sushi rice. Enjoyed a nice sushi picnic. Sleep was horrible. Not worried about the number, but I am pretty bloated over these last few days. Hoping for a nice light dinner. Been a little behind on the post readings hopefully I can catch up soon. Keep at it all!!

I am petrified about sharing good news here, for fear that you will ask me for a song to dance to. HA! Chalk it up to my phobia of public dancing. I have two left feet and one of them fell asleep.

I am a heck of a toe tapper though.

@_JeffreyD_ Thanks for the chuckle. I do look forward to your posts every day!
