7/06 - 155.9
7/07 - 153.7
7/08 - 153.5 - Slowly dropping down. Food wasn't great as I ate back all of my exercise calories. Also tried a 3-ingredient peanut butter cookie (BF's fave and only cookie he'll eat) and they turned out great! So added unexpected calories for taste test before I fed it to anybody else. Fortunately it cooled off enough that the pup and I walked 2.5 miles to go get our mail, versus driving to get it. Initially I forgot my plan to get mail and started the opposite direction so by the end, it was 38 minutes so I decided to keep going to 45 minutes to hit a new "badge" on my company's wellness app and coincidently right at 2.5 miles (we can earn daily points to accumulate to $$ back on our paycheck. I can earn up to $200 back so it's a nice motivation. In the 2 weeks I've had this, I've earned $5! Halfway to earning $10 already as of last night's walk). Slept in this morning as I was, once again, so sleepy. Plus my brain initially went to the 330/4am morning I have tomorrow and that isn't a good motivation to get up. Plus, my calves are noticeably sore from the hills! Glad we did it, though, as the scale rewarded me with a drop despite the food factor. I will likely weigh in morning, but not post as I'll be driving all day. Sunday will be hit or miss, depending on what we're doing. Not sure plans for tonight, to include dinner, so I'll have leftover roast for lunch since it has a good amount of protein and I'll stock up on the veggies (BF won't eat leftovers so this is all for me!)

Previous Day's Comments7/06 - TOM is kicking my behind with the bloat this time around. I don't look or feel as bloated, though, but it's definitely the bloat-squish. Also finally got some TMI movement going again, but it was after weigh-in and drinking a ton of water so will wait until tomorrow to see if it helped the scale. Did wake up at the time I usually do to take BigBro to work and got a walk with the pup (1.77mi, 30 minutes. Wildlife still out roaming so she was challenging to handle at times and I was much slower than I prefer. I also struggled to get up and moving which didn't help, but now I'm glad I did). Also got 5 minutes on the rower. It's been so long and with a lumbar fusion, I don't want to go to hard or long to start off and lock up all those muscles or get too much inflammation to pinch the damaged nerve. Did that once and not doing it again. Went until I felt the muscles begin to work and tighten up, then stopped. It's been about a half hour and I'm feeling a little soreness, but no pain, which is what I aimed for. I'll work up slowly to more time/distance eventually! Did find out last night that our upright freezer isn't quite staying cold enough. Think SOME things are frozen solid, but much of it isn't, including what we pulled out for dinner last night. Ended up eating out because we didn't have anything else to make. Luckily, yesterday there were still some 4th of July sales going on and purchased a new freezer to get delivered next week (scheduled Tuesday, we'll see if that holds). Will try to sort things out today during breaks and store what's still frozen solid in the kitchen refrigerator/freezer until the new one arrives.
7/07 - Some TMI movement, TOM has finally left me alone, and now it's just me, food, exercise, and bloat to fight it out. I was absolutely exhausted this morning when my 6am alarm went off so I slept until work alarm at 7. Realized I only have Sunday to rest and relax so taking today to sleep in a bit more is worth it. Starting back next week, I have no choice but to get up and get moving at 6. Roast tonight with potatoes, carrots, and celery since I was able to salvage that from the broken freezer. Since I know we'll be eating from home, I can also take the pup for a walk after dinner and once it's cooled to get some activity in. Also knowing dinner, I can plan better for lunch. Attempting to fast as long as I can. I did put collagen protein in my coffee to help with the transition back into fasting. 1/2 serving is 35 calories so not a TRUE fast, but it's small enough and will help hold off on solid foods.

Big rains here yesterday—7+ inches in some areas. Our lovely tulip tree, planted 3 years ago, is leaning on the fence. 😢 We have someone coming out to see if they can pull it up and stake it. I hope so! Other than that we have no damage, but lots of trees down, power outages, and flooding in the area. I did eat ice cream to sooth myself last night.

Good day yesterday, foodwise. And Rory passed his Advanced Canine Good Citizen test. Today’s the last day of doggy school until August, although we’ll still be meeting a couple of friends for tracking. It’s great exercise—lots of walking on uneven ground—and fun! I have lots of salad makings for lunch.
7/08 - 180.2
I just don’t get it. My calories the past few week+ have been well below maintenance, and a bit below my goal, and I’m getting plenty of exercise between dog training and gardening. So discouraging. I’m about ready to give up and just live with it. If it weren’t for my belly, I wouldn’t much care, to be honest. But jeez, why give up stuff if it makes no difference? Waaaa! (No hugs needed, I’m just venting again.)

7/8: 138.8! Lost a lot of water since TOM arrived and my body’s adjusting to eating more carefully. Right now I have my calories set at 1800 based on 1300 + 500 for breastfeeding, but my second and last nursling is 17 months old so I’m not sure how many calories I’m burning from that anymore. I guess I will reassess after a few weeks. Anyway, happy with progress so far!!

7/6 157.0 Bone density test this morning which should be interesting. Had to cut my treadmill workout short due to a Toastmasters meeting - 3.1 miles in 47:00 @ 3% incline with no weights. Felt a slight twinge in my right knee afterwards, the usual signal that it’s time to replace my sneakers.
7/7 156.0 Bone density results came back normal. Stayed well below calorie goal yesterday. I do better if I input my meals for the day into the food tracker ahead of time, rather than afterwards. After 6 months of weight training classes twice a week I’ve only lost a total of 4 lbs. but have gone down a size in jeans, so something is working!

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 almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/6 229.0 A bit out of control this weekend. I broke my cardinal rule and didn’t log everything I ate and drank for three days. Especially drank. Lots of get-togethers with friends that took me out of my comfort zone. Now to get back on track, effective immediately.
7/7 227.8 Glad to see the scale start moving back down. Had a good day yesterday and hoping for a great day today even though I’m not feeling so hot physically. Meals are planned and logged; lots of leftovers from the weekend but we’ll eat them in a sensible way.
7/8 226.2 Good news – I’ve now dropped all the bloat I picked up over the holiday weekend. Bad news – I’ve also just tested positive for COVID. Going to keep drinking water and eating sensibly when I feel like eating.

7/7: 245.4 lb.
7/8: 245.6 lb. Heat and humidity is bad here in TN. I am holding water and my ankles are swollen. Starting a stronger blood pressure medicine that is supposed to help with the edema. I didn't get all the water I wanted to drink yesterday. Try for that again today.

7/6: 132.5 - Did a skeleton pre-log of things I knew I was going to eat, which helped me make better decisions earlier in the day as to what to eat. Got my workouts in and had a great sleep!
7/7: 132.7 - Extra long walk (5 miles) and an hour of Jazzercise workouts. Went to bed way too late though.
7/8: 132.7 - Had our weekly neighborhood get together on the driveway. Full crowd - it has been so nice to get to know our neighbors over the last couple of years. Normal workouts, leftovers for lunch and dinner. Sleep was a little better, but still went to bed too late.

7/6: 176
7/7: 175.5 Had lots of water yesterday. Hoping to keep the trend going! Thanks so much for starting this challenge!
7/8: 173.5 Thank you all for the encouragement and motivation. This is the most success I’ve had in a long while. I just had a steroid injection in my hip yesterday and am instructed to lay low for a few days so hopefully, this won’t cause a stall. I’m determined more than ever to eat and exercise better for my health! I am grateful for the accountability this has given me. Hugs to you all.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Hello! First post on MFP ever. Completely new to the community BUT I find this very motivating. It's always nice to see everyone trying and doing their best to live a healthier life style. I'm late in joining, but after reading so many posts, I am completely inspired!
I's time to start focusing on myself and my health. There are no more excuses.

7/6 / 164.6 / Sun is shining so I hope to take my lunchtime walk outdoors today. Also want to get on the Peloton tonight.
7/7 164.4 / Today feels like a bit of the calm before the storm. Starting tomorrow, I have a lot of corporate events for the Calgary Stampede, and in less than two weeks we're on our way to Ontario to visit Brad's family. Oh, and my brother is coming tomorrow to stay for a while too! Lots to do. I did get my long ride in on the Peloton last night and will try to ride again tonight if I can fit it in.
7/8 / 163.4 / Started my Stampede with the parade.. beautiful weather. Kevin Costner was the marshal. There was a breakfast included with our seats that was yummy. I worked this afternoon. Tonight we lay low as my husband has a Gran Fondo bike race tomorrow (his first ever!) so we are up early to go to that.

Round 191 Results: -4.3 pounds
Day, Weight, Comment
7/6: 153.3 - it’s time to start thinking about eating in maintenance calories and upping my protein because I want to work on body recomposition. Maintenance calories scare me. Once I hit 151-152, I’ll be slowly upping my calories and watching what the scale does. Also, I’m excited to be back for my second round!
7/7: 154.1 - hormonal weight fluctuation… fun fun!
7/8: 152.9 - yesterday was a pretty good day and I’m happy with the results. I am on a roll with tracking! Maybe my best streak ever!
