Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 192
Replies
-
Hi All - This is my round three. I've lost a couple pounds since starting. If I can just keep the downward trend going, I'll be very happy.
SW: 146.6
7/6 W- 145.8 - Peloton & yoga yesterday; planned/tracked my food
7/7 Th - 146.0 - Yesterday: Yoga & strength workout; tracked food but 300 over calorie goal. Today: Traveling so most likely won't be able to exercise.
7/8 F - ?? - Traveling; on the road 900+ miles over the past two days, but we made it to SW Florida! Tracked food; packed low-cal snacks; sandwich; went over calorie goals but did better than normal because we avoided fast food. I'll be able to weigh in tomorrow.
7/9 Sa - 144.0 - Two pounds down from last weigh-in on Thursday. Weighed on a different scale. Hoping it's not the scale.9 -
64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 192 ( my 124th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round is just to lose, I want my Commonwealth Volunteer uniform to feel a little less “snug” ! No binges, keep within calories & macros.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.

Day/Weight/Comment
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!
7/8 155.8 Stayed well below calorie goal yesterday. Ordered new sneakers. Treadmill workout today: 4.25 miles in 65:00 @ 3% incline with no weights.
7/9 155.6 Busy day today. Interval training class this morning, Toastmasters officer training this afternoon followed by my 2nd Covid booster shot.

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.

I’m so tired of the COVID hype - just saw a story the other day about “the worst variant yet” “It will infect everyone!” “Not as serious symptoms and fewer deaths” So much BS and scare tactics! Live in fear people- we’re all gonna die - eventually. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH
@quiltingjaine.com I started feeling very tired. Real fatigue. Then the nose dripping, and post nasal drip that led to the coughing. Most of the day it's not too bad, kind of touch and go really. So I tested 3 times during a two day period and the 3rd test showed positive. My five days are not up until the day after I am supposed to see the cardiologist for the follow-up. That's also the same day (I learned on my medical portal) that I was to have the CTA on the heart. I guess I'll be cancelling both and rescheduling. So the answers will be just beyond reach for now. Thanks for the advice and well wishes. No one wants to be near me. My daughter grabbed my grandson and out the door they went until I'm okay. Of course, she'll bring me anything I need. So rest is about all I'll have since I'm being avoided like the plague right now. LOL. Yes to lots of fluids. My carbs are higher on my macros that when I was strictly keto but within reason. I have met those goals nearly every day lately. Slowly, over time, I will likely begin to lower them even more. Not just good for the waistline, but good for the diabetes too!

7/5 139.8 – 10.66 miles walked yesterday, less than 2/3rds of exercise calories eaten back. No loss this round, hope the scales start moving again soon now that I am back into my normal walking regime, need to lose a few pounds so my uniform fells a little more comfortable in 2 weeks! I am counting & weighing everything so I will trust that will happen soon! See you next round.

7/6: 251.0 – slight increase due to poor choices yesterday. I will get back into the groove today.
7/7: 250.6 – down to starting weight. It was a bad day yesterday from what I ate and drank, but I was still OK on calories. I need to get back on track today!
7/8: 252.0 – up some today. Probably due to sodium, but we will see as I had two bad days there. I got back on track yesterday. Now, I just need to stay on track!
7/9: 252.0 – Still the same. I ate on plan yesterday, so I hope that the weight starts coming off again soon.
7/10: 251.2 – Down some from yesterday so I am glad to see that. Went out to lunch with the family and ate off my eating plan but still stayed OK on calories although ate too many carbs. Dinner I ate back on plan. I am planning all my meals today and the rest of the week so that I stay on plan and, hopefully, I will lose some more before Friday!

I am female and 66 years young from northern California
Round Goal: I’d love to get to 135, Then I’d only have 10 lbs. to go. 10 lbs. sounds like so much less than 12 lbs.

SW: 136.8
Day/Weight/Comment
7/6 - 136.8 – Today we are rounding up volunteers to trim part of the hiking trail. Not a lot of walking more bending and stooping.
7/7 – 136.4 – Yesterday I decided I need stronger legs so I can get off the ground more gracefully. I did 2 sets of squats. Sore legs today. Off for a walk today with a serious hill.
7/8 – 135.8 – Yay, getting closer to my round goal of 135.
7/9 – 136 – Why isn’t losing weight linear? I had a big dinner with a couble glasses of wine. While I was under my calories for the day, probably a lot of food in my gut
7/10 – 136 – Got poison oak all over my face. I was working on our trail and must have touched my face with my gloves. Also have sore hip so took a day off from walking. Stayed under my calories.

7/6: 256.2 feel pretty good. I kept within my calorie goal the last two days.
7/7: 253.4 I don't know what happened, but I'll take it. I'm just hoping 🙏 I can stay within my calories tonight also. Worried because I'm feeling hungrier than usual today 😕
7/8: 254.0 went over by 200 cals yesterday. I consider it a good day because it could’ve been worse.
7/9: 253.8 I fought the late night snacking and I WON
It was hard but YES I did it. The worse part was my hip ached all night which kept waking me making me so miserable but i wouldn't get out of bed because i was afraid I'd snack. I have an anniversary party to attend today. Wish me luck on keeping within my calories 🙃
7/10: 254.2 eh on yesterday. Party was nice. Saw lots of relatives. Was able to get Mom to go (has mild dementia). She remembered most. They were surprised/happy to see her. She is the last of my Dad's side alive. He is one of 13 and him and his brothers/sisters and their spouses are all gone. It was hard to track food I think because I didn't have all but I had a tsp of this and a tsp of that for the pasta dishes. Protein was easier. Thank God that experiment is over 😆

Hi All - This is my round three. I've lost a couple pounds since starting. If I can just keep the downward trend going, I'll be very happy.
SW: 146.6
7/6 W- 145.8 - Peloton & yoga yesterday; planned/tracked my food
7/7 Th - 146.0 - Yesterday: Yoga & strength workout; tracked food but 300 over calorie goal. Today: Traveling so most likely won't be able to exercise.
7/8 F - ?? - Traveling; on the road 900+ miles over the past two days, but we made it to SW Florida! Tracked food; packed low-cal snacks; sandwich; went over calorie goals but did better than normal because we avoided fast food. I'll be able to weigh in tomorrow.
7/9 Sa - 144.0 - Two pounds down from last weigh-in on Thursday. Weighed on a different scale. Hoping it's not the scale.
7/10 Su - 143.2 - Long bike ride yesterday; logged food; ate out for lunch & dinner; guessed at calories but it worked! Happy with the results!9 -

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.
7/07 - 179.8
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.)
7/09 - 178.4
Just when I was ready to throw in the towel! I’ve been over my food the past few days and have no idea what would make me hover and bounce up like I did. Oh, well. It’s a mystery sometimes. Have a beautiful Saturday!

Boing. This is water — my calories were fine but I had more sodium than usual. And at least it’s not back to the 80s! Have a lovely Sunday, everyone!

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!
7/9: 152.8 - I’ll take it! I’m nervous about today because we have a dinner date and I want to enjoy it without going overboard, which is my tendency.
7/10: 153.2 - wow! This is great! I definitely ate way more than usual at the end of the night, and didn’t see a huge impact. It was very nice to feel way more in control of my eating last night since I was still tracking everything.

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!

Day/Weight/Comment
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.
7/9 / 163 / In beautiful Longview, Alberta while my husband does his first ever Gran Fondo race to the Highwood Pass. SO PROUD! He has been unstoppable since his hip replacement. Afterwards we will go to a friend's child's birthday if he has the energy.
7/10 / 161.2 / Hoping to get two Peloton rides in, a walk, and then we have dinner out in downtown Calgary with friends.

Bad day. My dog hurt her paw pads running on stones and so could not walk with me. It felt so wrong to go out and leave her sad and limping at home. Work was stressy. Family kept interrupting - WFH is so not nirvana. I gave up and ate junk.

07/07 …..202.0 ….. (Trend weight 203.4)
07/08 …..201.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.2) Wow! What fatigue yesterday. Laid down on the couch at 4:30 dozing off and on (I don’t take naps normally). I probably only ate about 500 calories. I got up to go to bed at 1:30 AM and was up at 6:00. I only got in 2100 steps so my scale didn’t go down much. I felt so bad I even took an at-home covid test but it was solidly negative. Sore and in pain today from all the laying down. My body is not used to that! I’m still feeling woozy. I hope it gets better. I am babysitting DGS today. I am being scheduled for a CTA scan which is less invasive than a heart cath. Waiting for the call on date and time.
07/09 …..199.6 ….. (Trend weight 202.9) Finally day 4 of no TMI and relief came! It showed up on the scale in a big way. Onederland! Can I hang on to that elusive old friend of mine? Time will tell. I have been feeling fatigue and bad cough since Thursday. Finally tested positive for covid last night. Left message for Dr who called me back and said just take it easy at home. No need for hospital. Retest after the 5th day of symptoms. I am vaccinated x 3 but didn’t get the 4th booster this summer due to all those heart tests. Cardiologist had said to wait so I had planned the newest one available in the fall. Clearly the old vacs are wearing off. So far, this has not affected my hunger. I’ve even logged for part of the day until I just get too tired to get up and finish or close it out. However, I know I’ve been below my 1400 calories and stayed within my macros because I have still carefully planned my meals and snacks. Just not a lot of movement and no exercise.
07/10 …..198.4 ….. (Trend weight 202.5)Watched calories carefully since I’m not getting in a lot of movement or exercise with this Covid virus. Appetite is good. I can still taste and smell. Very tired, not sleeping well and the worst part is the phlegm that causes such coughing. Throat getting rough . Feels more like pneumonia than anything, but I’ll wait and see how it is after day 5 is over. It’s far to a hospital for X-rays. Weight still coming down. I’m really trying to work on it. Spacing my meals out and leaving enough calories for a snack is key.

Akron, Ohio
OSW: 186 (March 2018)
Maintenance: 140-145 (December 2018)
My 153rd Round!
I’ve let stress derail the past few years of maintaining my weight around 145. The past few months I’ve been inching up above my maintenance weight of 145 and I am now fully 6 lbs. over. I can feel it in my clothes. I’ve been here before many years ago and if I don’t stop it now, I’ll be back to 186-188 lbs. The only way for me to be successful is to meticulously track my food and stay engaged with this challenge.
Good luck to all of you this round!After losing 12 lbs. I was stuck at 174lbs. for a couple weeks until I found this challenge.

7/06 - 151 - I was home on a vacation day yesterday. I took a walk and tracked my food.
7/07 - 151 - Stayed within calories and took a walk after I got home from work.
7/08 - 151 - I was hoping for a little drop before the weekend, but this just means I will have to be extra vigilant to stay on track.
7/09 - 150.5
7/10 - 150 - I went to a party last night and limited myself to 1 piece of pizza, 1 small piece of strawberry shortcake, and 2 drinks. We also made a 2 mile roundtrip walk to a nearby lake to watch fireworks which helped. I'm trying to stay on track today.

Day/Weight/Comment: Reflections on previous day
7/6 - 162.9 (+.5) - Bloat & holiday damage💧176 oz., 🥗under, 💪strength training only, 👟7,696, ⛑+4 (162). What a long day it was! Still plan on sticking with fast (mind, body, soul) and hope to have the energy to squeeze in some cardio.
“When any real progress is made, we unlearned and learn anew what we thought we knew before." - Henry David Thoreau.
7/7 - 162 (-.9) - Really glad I fasted, feeling rejuvenated. 💧160 oz., 👟11,047 💪 247 active burn. 👟 11,047 ⛑+23 (172).
“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” - Arthur Ashe
7/8 - 161.9 (-.1) - 💧 176 oz. , 🥗 under 👟 12,302 💪573. Another long one but I get to return to the water today. Volunteered at the community garden in the evening and feeling it in my buns and lower back (a lot of squatting & bending over). Not my usual hammie’s but shows me where I need to focus some workouts.
“Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.” - Suzy Kassem
7/9 - 162.5 (+.6) - 💧180 oz., 🥗 under 👟 10,615 💪 630 ⛑ + 20 (185). Had a great time at the lake but sun was brutal. Betting increase is a combo of hormones & some sore muscles.
“She stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her way, she adjusted her sails.” Elizabeth Edwards
7/10 - 162.3 (-.2) - 💧180 oz. 🥗 under 👟4,415 ⛑ +12 (196). Bad ankle was swollen & in pain so took it easy. Shampoo’d upholstery and as afternoon approached I started feeling feverish & downright horrible. Just up from an extra am nap, we’ll see how it goes.

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.
