JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - Round 193

musicsax · July 2022

64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 193 ( my 125th). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.

Goal this round is just to lose, I want my Commonwealth Volunteer uniform to feel a little less “snug” ! (First shift is Wednesday !! ) 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.

7/16 - 152
7/17 - 152.5
7/18 - 150.5 - Back to the office today. I'm drinking plenty of water to hopefully prevent a bounce from the sodium this weekend.
7/19 - 150 - The scale bounced between 149.5 and 150.5 so I'm taking the average. I have a business lunch today at a very popular local Italian restaurant. I'm planning to order a low calorie salad, although it will be hard not to have some of their famous pizza or lasagna.
7/20 - 150 - Okay. I ended up having a half piece of pizza and half of my salad for lunch yesterday. I stayed on plan the rest of the day.

@jaccimc63 I totally would have caved on the pizza, and not just a half piece. Pizza is my kryptonite. Good for you for being strong!

7/19 - 155.0
7/20 - 154.5 - Easing back down. A little shocked as SD wanted to make rice so BF helped her make homemade chicken fried rice. Quite a carb-loaded meal for dinner. But I was mindful of what I was eating all day, only snacked on a packet of lemon-pepper salmon when I realized I was truly hungry (not boredom or emotional eating). Woke up again this morning for some movement. Yoga With Adriene "For when you're feeling dead inside" which is pretty accurate how I was feeling this AM. I was NOT having it. I had some pretty awful dreams, tossing and turning and waking up frequently. But I knew that 1 hour was not enough to make me feel any better so I might as well get up and move since it's more likely to boost me than a bit more sleep. Photos are up in the air as Fam didn't quite account for a few things, unfortunately. It is BF's fathers day gift so we left everything up to them except us getting our outfits (theme is red&black). We shall see if it works out. Kiddos only have a couple more weeks here so hopefully they get it sorted as the next opportunity is spring break. If it is postponed, maybe I can work this bloat off a little more and feel a little better about them. If not, oh well. The dress I chose will hide the bloat-belly I currently am dealing with fairly well. Edit to add because brain isn't working today: my TMI/digestion is all kinds of wonky. Not sure what's causing it but I have a feeling it is impacting how bloated I look/feel. Likely has impact on weight as well since I'm almost always higher when I have noticeable bloat. Hoping my food choices this week will fix this in the next few days. Edit #2: Fam just informed us they were able to find a place to accomodate us for photos. They are happening tonight after all.

Previous Day's Comments

7/16 - DNP
7/17 - DNP
7/18 - No idea why my body wants to put on weight. Granted, food has been a little wonky but not entirely unhealthy. Today likely has a little to do with the fact that we FINALLY painted our ceiling beams yesterday and boy are my arms/shoulders SOOOOOOORE. Plus lots of up and down ladders for a leg workout. We have family portraits Wednesday evening that I'm trying to work toward looking okay in. BF and kiddos going to BF's dad's this weekend (out of state), leaving Thursday morning and coming back Monday evening so it'll just be BigBro and I. We both work Thurs, Fri, Mon and he never really leaves his room on weekends so it'll pretty much just be me. I only have to worry about his to/from work and feeding him dinner (which I'm feeding myself so it's not a big deal there). I did force myself out of bed this morning (by reminding myself my actual alarm goes off in less than an hour and I'll be miserable if I let myself fall back asleep) to knock out a nice workout. 5-4-3-2-1 min alternating bike/rower (5 min row, 1 min rest, 5 min bike, 1 min rest, 4 min rower, etc). Feel better now that it's done. Let's see if I can keep this up, though. So long as I can get into bed around 9-930 every night, I think I can force myself up. Thursday might be a challenge since BigBro has to be at work a half hour earlier cutting my workout time short. Plus this week we may get home later Wed night since we're doing sunset family portraits (around 730-8) and that's about an hours drive away. Might call that my rest morning.
7/19 - Surprised at the drop despite the big heavy dinner. It was, however, filled with protein and veggies (I doubled up on veggies). Second day waking up at 5 to get some movement in. I'm super sore, particularly in the shoulders and neck (DOMS from painting I believe. Always the second day after for me I've noticed) so I did a nice Yoga With Adriene morning routine for 34 minutes. Hoping it would help the bit of a tension headache I have due to the neck/shoulder soreness. Might need to put some cream on to help ease it, though. The habit here isn't necessarily the workout, it's the getting up and moving first thing in some form or fashion. Due to the "lightness" of yoga, I have to be very careful about my food today. I have lunch and dinner planned, but I've noticed I get quite hungry mid-afternoon. I have a little bit of extra calories left for something to hold me over, though, so I should be okay so long as I stay mindful. Also, so long as I have my water dialed in, I have coffee in the morning to help me push lunch a little later (yay for the appetite suppressant side of coffee! Plus my collagen. I usually only drink one cup when I get back from dropping off BigBro but I'm drinking it early today so I'll give myself permission for a second cup later in the morning should I need it. Second cup won't have collagen added. Gotta watch them calories!). Hope everyone has a fantastic day! Editing to add: I'm focusing on how I feel and look vs the scale since I'm trying to reintroduce regular workouts. I know I'll likely gain some (or not lose) from glycogen and muscle build-up initially if I can keep this habit up.

10-Day Challenge (July 15 - 25)
Hi All - I'm in for round 4 for me. These challenges are working for me and the support from the group is priceless. The next 10 days will be tough because I'm away from my Peloton and on a working vacation in Florida. I lost a little over 2 pounds last round (did some yo-yo-ing in the middle. I'm hoping to keep the downward trend going, exercising daily, and making/sticking to my meal plans.

SW: 144
7/16: Sa 143.8
7/17 S - 146.4 - Went off track yesterday. It was a beach day. I shared a plate of nachos with hubby and had 2 mojitos.
7/18 M - 144.2
7/19 Tu - 142.8
7/20 W - 143.8 - Went a little off track. Had a beer with DH (finally figured out what that means ha!) after dinner and also had late night snacks (drats!). The win is that I didn't totally overdo it like I normally do with the snacking and drinks. My birthday is coming up and I'm also planning to see old friends while in Florida. I'm stating it here. I will make a reasonable plan for how I'm going to handle all of that and stick to plan.

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.

7/16 118.5 GKI 6.0 Yesterday was a good day. OMAD was ham, 2 eggs, and 32 slices of a new to me keto bread recipe from Wholesome Yum - made with hearts of palm.
**EDIT - Oops, I see the recipe was from “ibreatheimhungry.” Maybe that’s why I couldn’t find it
7/17 119.0 GKI 6.5 Homemade “pulled” pork and squash medley.
7/18 119.5 GKI 10.1 1/2 GG salad w/steak & 1/8 pita and had made strawberry whipped cream sweetened with vanilla bean SF syrup (less than 1/2c portion) **Post post edit - 3-4 days no TMI, finally relieved.
7/19 118.5 GKI 4.6 Finished GG salad early, went to the Apple store, got gasoline (!) and made a hamburger patty for myself had it on two thin slices of the bread I made the other day and ate one cup of leftover squash, pepper and onions. Nothing after 6PM - aiming for 16-18 hour fast which I intend to break with my version of BPC.
7/20 119.5 GKI 6.2 @4:30 AM Rt calf cramp woke me at 2:30 and 4. Gave up, got up, sitting in the dark LR. Community Bingo tonight, no idea what they will have for dinner. Fasting since lun-ner around 2 yesterday.

Exercised 60 min treadmill steady incline.

For those suffering from covid . Hoping you recover quickly . Covid can make you feel like crap. Drink lots of fluids and keep your nutrition up.
As an icu nurse covid is still out there. We still see a few patients a week in the hospital . Most are vaccinated and boosted but they don’t end up on my unit. Last fall / winter when delta hit we were always full and we lost so many and some were young. Yes covid is still out there but each round it is lessening but you still have to be safe.
7/19 257.4 no exercise today off to a busy day at work.

7/16 / 166.4 / Even my husband asked me this morning why my face was so puffy. I had a super long day yesterday- at the final workday corporate event for the Stampede standing on a rooftop patio in hot weather and then a night at the grounds watching live music standing on concrete. Surpassed 20,000 steps again and just did what I needed to avoid heat stroke or dehydration. Off to the lake today.
7/17 / DNW / At the lake and forgot the scale. Supper last night was a nice salad with watermelon and cherries. Got my 10,000 steps and had a nap.
7/18 / 163.8 / Last corporate event for Stampede last night and I went way too hard and hot home way too late. We went and saw Elvis after work today.
7/19 / 165.8 / At the airport to fly back to Ontario to visit my husband's family. Looking forward to enjoying it in the middle of summer as we are usually there more during the shoulder seasons.
7/20 / DNW / Supper and a long walk on the boardwalk when we landed last night. Off to Canada's Wonderland today. So thankful I don't have to worry about fitting on any of the rides.

Taking the kids for ice cream after they get their second doses of their covid vaccines this afternoon so I need to plan for that little indulgence. Having pulled chicken bbq for dinner with corn fresh from our CSA share we will pick up today. Pretty excited for that! We need a fence before we can successfully garden at our house so the next best thing is our amazing CSA.

Day/Weight/Comment: Reflections on previous day

7/16 - 160.1 (-1.1) - Fighting a headache (probably caffeine deprivation) but family is all better again. Created an interesting fusion meal last night and that was fun. Very healthy and kids loved it. 💧144 oz, 🥗Net under, 💪475 kcals, 👟11,424, ⛑+34 PAI (193).
“You may not be there yet, but you are closer than you were yesterday.” - José N Harris

7/17 - 160 (-.1) - 🎉 Wahoo! If nothing else I was hoping to see that tiny little decimal point fall off today. Down 20lbs & feeling great about that. Celebrating with a day at the lake today. 💧176 oz., 🥗 Gross under, 💪 739 kcal’s, 👟 13,970, ⛑+ 65 PAI (244).
“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” - Zig Ziglar

7/18 - 161.2 (+1.2) - Wowsa! I was amped again yesterday! Spent almost 14 hrs at the lake and was actively paddling/swimming just shy of 10hrs. (racing my son + best friend for a fair chunk). Not sure where this burst of energy has come from but I’ll take it. I feel better than I have in at least a month. I was sore while we were still moving + shaking yesterday and today there isn’t a muscle outside of my face that isn’t feeling it! Ate late at Red Robin and treated myself to a big Stella. Once I stopped moving though I was ready to snooze and that’s about what happened as soon as we got back home. Between the muscles, heat and food choices (how late it was to boot) I’m not surprised by the scale but it’ll fall right back off. Scored a never used Vertical Climber for $25 (my goal hitting prize) and can’t wait to pick up this evening. 💧148 oz., 🥗 Net Under, 💪3,245 kcal’s, 👟38,645, ⛑ +75 (262).
“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new” - Socrates

7/19 - 160.7 (-.5) - Still retaining some water. After hopping on vertical climber for a single minute yesterday I can see how much I will love the workout! Legs and many other muscle groups are still sore though so I’ll continue to take it a bit easy on them. 💧144 oz. 🥗 Gross Under (by 2)💪 1hr. walk, Hatha Yoga + Strength👟 12,899 ⛑ +13 (266).
“Keep your vitality. A life without health is like a river without water.” - Maxine Lagacé

7/20 - 159.8 (-.9) - Still feeling my marathon style Sunday but I’ve shed the water now. 💧160 oz., 🥗Gross under, 💪HIIT, Yoga, Walking + Strength 👟13,031 ⛑ +17 (271).

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

7/16 - 178
I went a little off the rails last night, but I think it was ok as I worked a good five hours in the garden transplanting and planting various things. I was hungry and pooped! I did eat more salt than usual—was craving it, so I ate some Triscuits with cheddar cheese. So not as junky as it might have been! We’ve had a lovely rain to water everything in, so I’ve been out weeding this morning, and plan to go tracking (dog tracks, I follow) later. Tracking = lots of walking. In the meantime I think I’ll just sit and read. Enjoy your Saturday!

7-17 - 178.4
Lots of walking yesterday evening while tracking training with two friends and their dogs. We were out for 2 hours, walking most of that through fields. I conked out early last night! Calories were under goal in spite of a piece of lovely peach galette I made from my big box of peaches, so I think this bump is from Friday night. I also made a low-sugar peach-ginger jam—it’s fabulous!—and froze a bunch of peaches for smoothies and whatever in the future. Now I’m off for a short tracking session to work on some weaknesses. Surely all this walking will force some pounds to fall off? Have a lovely Sunday!

7/18 - 178
Monday, Monday…although I trust the day to be productive. I went over calories yesterday, but not over maintenance, so all good. The plan for today is back on track. Have a lovely!

7/19 - 177.8
I made a lovely tropical fruit & mixed berries collagen powder almond milk smoothie for breakfast—yummy! Leftover chicken fajita soup for dinner. Probably a salad for lunch. Nice to have the day planned! I’ve edited my goal for the year—no weight goal. I find weight goals aren’t viable. I can’t control what I weigh, only what I eat and do for exercise. If I do those with health in mind, the weight will follow. I don’t know what I was thinking giving myself untenable goals. Life is one long revision!

It’s gonna be a scorcher here as many other places. I think I’ll make gazpacho for lunch or dinner. Cold and yummy. Here’s a photo I took yesterday that makes me smile—but then Rory and sunflowers always make me smile. I hope the make you smile, too!

Goal: 120 - 130

Weight loss per rounds 💪🏻
Round, starting weight, end weight, loss
Round #192: 188, 183.3, 4.7

🌸Round #193🌸

Goal: I have an event coming up and it’s summer, so I’m going to push myself a bit harder than last round to move more and play sports outside and eat mindfully. I really want to jump off the obese train to overweight train this round and finally meet my first milestone goal!

SW: 183.3

For now, I will take the tiny wins to keep me motivated for the long run! I’m so close to reaching my goal 1 this round. I hope I reach my second goal by end of the year.)

Hi, I'm Michelle, 41 yr old mum from Ireland living in Sweden.

I'm in a bit late for this round.... hubby was on holidays from work, kids are off school and I got myself a mild hip injury so I had to take it easy for 2 weeks. Didn't weigh myself or concentrate too much on food but haven't had the rebound i thought I would!

UGW: 75kg

Round 191 SW 103.4 EW 101.6
Round 192 SW 101.2 EW 100.4 (07/09)
Round 193 SW 101.7

Goals:
1. Stick to my workout schedule

4. macros 50:25:25

7/18 101.7kg Had to let the daily logging slide as hubby was off work, kids off school and all my cycling and running had over tightened my hip flexors so I had to rest and recover! Goal weight for this round is 101.0kg. My aim is to lose slow and steady so a drop of 0.1kg a day is what I'm hoping to achieve.
7/19 101.4kg didn't actually track food properly yesterday but just tried to be mindful of what I was eating.
7/20 101.7kg yeah.... guess I need to track my food!!!

but I also cycled a lot yesterday!!! Pulling a child carrier with 3 pallet collars to my allotment!!!

7/19 209.4 Yikes but I loved every minute of being gone. Leaving again tomorrow to celebrate our 38th anniversary. Also the first time in five years to have a respite from caring for our special needs daughter.
