Day/Weight/Comment
06/25 …..203.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/26 …..202.8 ….. (Trend weight 204.0) I’m happy to start this round with a one pound drop. I carefully planned my meals and snacks yesterday, just not enough movement because it was so hot! Good luck to everyone this round. We’re in this together! Thanks Jaine for posting this and continuing to be an inspiration!

06/27 …..198.4 ….. (Trend weight 203.5) Onederland, Onederland!!!! But a 4 ½ lb loss overnight? Hard to believe. I took batteries in and out several times. Then tried new ones. Even moved the scale to my non-typical spot. Yep, 198.2. The only explanation is that I did take my waterpill yesterday since I was home. (I won’t be able to take it the next 3 days as I’ll be away from home). But THAT much water retention due to heart no pumping properly? Wow! So today is the ultrasound on the heart and I get hooked up to a heart monitor I will wear home for a couple of days. Then traveling even further south for some building supplies at a special store. Going with my son. When we hit the big city I promised him golden corral and we may try to fit in the Elvis movie. Scale will be up tomorrow from GC and lots of sitting but I plan on making it a nice day for the two of us. Watch what you put on the plate Donna!

06/28 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0)
I had yesterday’s weight off by 0.2 so I have corrected it. I’ll take what I see today on the scale gladly after so much travel sitting, hospital sitting, theater sitting and Golden Corral. Ultrasound was completed and I have a monitor on now (that added a few ounces to my scale too?). Feeling really motivated right now seeing the 100’s instead of 200’s, even after travel. I have my oldest grandson’s birthday deal with me later today. I am taking him to the salon for a facial and acne treatment (pimple extraction). I want to see how his skin reacts. Would be such a nice thing before school pix etc. I am back to travel/hospital tomorrow for the nuclear stress test and monitor removal. I am working hard to stay focused and not let the situations limit my progress. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very stressed out about the stress test. I hope I don’t have a heart attack in the middle of it. When I say I can’t breathe, I’m being serious here. But I do want some answers. By the way, I loved, loved, loved the Elvis movie. Even my 25 year old son really liked it and he’s not exactly an Elvis fan. It was as much about Col. Tom Parker as it was Elvis. A very interesting story and all the actors were wonderful including Tom Hanks. Rotten Tomatoes gave it high scores and it tied for number one at the box office this past opening weekend with Top Gun Maverick. Glad I went.

06/29 …..201.0 ….. (Trend weight 202.8) I’m not too surprised to see the jump up even though it is always disappointing. Celebrated DGS 16th birthday yesterday and ended up about 246 calories over. I feel some of this is also from the outing the day before catching up to me. I mean, I was careful but it WAS Golden Corral. Today is travel back to the hospital. Nervous about the testing and missing my coffee already. Afterward, Shopping and restaurant lunch with my friend who is going with me later. I will keep my eye on the ball and watch what I order.

@DaffyGirl88
My suggestion is that you don't wait, but use this 10-day period of round 191 to log your food & exercise and your corresponding progress (or regress). Every round is an education. That is the way I look at these rounds. Only a suggestion. There are no "musts" here.

joans1976 · June 2022

I’m in for my second round. Met some great friends the last round! Last round I lost 2 pounds! This round will be tricky because there is a holiday in it and we have a party with all the food and the drinks. We’ll see.

/nothing/ Time to buckle down before July. I am eating away from home for four out of the five weekends in July, and the other one is a holiday weekend.
6/28: 216
/some “nominal” dumbbell work/ I lost a pound even though lunch and supper were both restaurant meals. I have some major work to do if I plan to lower my 10-day average.

6/29: 216
/yoga and spinning/ I would have thought a pound or two would have sweated off. I did eat back a couple hundred exercise calories….

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 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_ 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!

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.

Day, Weight, Comment

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.
6/29: 156.9 - I stayed exactly the same as yesterday so I’m thrilled! Here’s to another day of tracking!

6/29 - 153.4 - Finally losing some of the water weight. Got a little TMI movement, but I'm not quite back to normal in that regards so likely holding on to some extra weight there, as well. Water was good yesterday at 90oz. BF took BigBro to work this morning so the SD and I went out for a "photography walk" to take pictures of sunrise with the big camera. Only to come home and realize my SD card reader is MIA... Just ordered a new one, though, which should be here Friday to see how they turned out for real. I got more steps in before work today than I ever did while commuting to work! Plus some quality time. Remote work has been fantastic. I have a couple days of posts to catch up on so I'm going to do that now. Not sure food for today, but will try to keep it in check throughout the day in case dinner is a bit more calorie-dense or unhealthy. Depending on dinner (if we go to Fam's or stay home) will take pup for another walk like we did last night. She's loving the remote work as well haha!

Previous Day's Comments

6/26 - DNP
6/27 - No proper TMI for a couple days with lots and lots of sodium bloat. Back on track today. Finally got access to my new company's wellness and connect everything. I'm also trying to figure out my schedule to allow me to work out throughout the week without missing work or dropping off/picking up BigBro. It'll likely still take a few weeks to really get into a nice routine, but I'm getting there. Not sure what today holds. Goddaughter's last t-ball game tonight so we will be going to that. It's at 7, but we have to pick up Bigbro from work. Won't have time to do that, come home to cook, then drive back out so I have a feeling we will be eating out. Will focus on healthier options during the workday instead. Also focusing on water and getting up to move frequently throughout the day, even if I'm not using the bike, rower, or bodyweight moves for a proper workout.
6/28 - Still holding on to water and TMI... sigh. I did get out for an evening walk with the pup last night after the rain passed. Hoping to do something similar today. Fitbit died this morning so steps from about 8am to 11am were not counted but there were some! Realize I posted on the wrong date yesterday so I adjusted that today. Water and watching food today as yesterday wasn't great food-wise with the t-ball game and eating out. Grilled or smoked chicken tonight, based on what's thawing. Training today and starting on my first ever project! Eeek I'm nervous. But it's keeping me busy so I'm okay with that.

SW: 211.1
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.

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! 🍵

6/28 - 179.8
Nothing much to report! 😁

6/29 - 181.2
Whaaaa??? This makes no sense, unless I’m waterlogged. I mean, it has to be water—I didn’t gain a pound and a half overnight. Calories were fine, though fat was a bit high, and I was on my feet at dog training for 5 hours, so not exactly sedentary. I don’t get it. I thought about fibbing to you guys, but what’s the point of that? Anyway, I’m disgusted. Hoping

6/27 228.4 Didn’t sleep at all well last night and I think I’m still getting rid of the sodium from an (amazing) Mexican meal Saturday night. Headed to the doctor for my annual physical today and for the first time in a long time I’m not dreading it. Welcome new friends!!
6/28 228.2 Much better sleep last night. Dr. was thrilled with the 30+ pound loss since last time I was in and is taking me off cholesterol meds to see if I can maintain progress without them. Exactly the outcome I was hoping for. Everything for today is planned and logged.
6/29 227.2 New recipe for dinner last night – chicken roll-ups with boursin cheese and basil. A definite keeper. Otherwise, everything for today is planned and logged.

Sorry, everyone. Kind of MIA lately. I'm starting a new business and I have an extremely heavy workload right now and over the next month or two. Excited and tired, but plugging away.

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!!

6/29 - 168.9 - 11,100 / 68. Hit my June Challenge of 398.1 Km for the month. Just been hitting my minimums right now. Scale increase due to Pasta, SO home, minimums TOM, alcohol, terrible sleep, TMI and family events. Interesting my water % did hit optimal level, it's usually in the low range. Fat % is the same as 165 and muscle is up too. The body is an interesting thing. Long weekend coming up this might be a few days before I go down again.
