    Round 211

    I’ll continue tweaking those carbs. It’s not just how many, it’s what type, even distribution throughout the day, slowing them entering into my system by adding proteins directly with them, etc. etc, etc. It’s complicated but I’m really feeling strong and ready for the task right now. Gonna grab the ball and run with it!

    Donna, exactly what I’ve been saying! Too much “natural sugar” is still sugar and too much fiber is still too much. I’m the only one who eats most of the vegetables I have in hand but I can’t eat a whole head of cauliflower without repercussions! This is why I track Total Carbs not net.

    @quiltingjaine. My problem is not knowledge of this stuff. I learned a lot in my first dietician class a decade ago. And I've done the research (especially during Keto). My problem is taking the bull by the horns. I'm hoping others will learn from both you & I. If I can prevent one person from getting diabetes then I've done well. I'm sure you feel the same. Yes, even natural sugars are dangerous for the glucose levels and the waistline!

    You don't have to be perfect, you just have to be better than you were before

    1/18 - 163.7 - I messed up my entire meal schedule yesterday.... I ate breakfast because I was quite hungry. Then realized I couldn't get in a workout and was low on allowed calories. So I had not so great small snacks for lunch instead of a meal to preserve calories for dinner. Then dinner, I was still very hungry after my first serving and waiting so I went back for a second one. It put me over calories, including what little "exercise" calories I had available. I also wasn't very good about getting up and moving around every hour so overall my movement was negligible. No walks until after next Friday. The pup goes back for a follow up and his next shot anytime Friday (I have day off and it's a walk in appointment) and hopefully we'll be cleared for walks then. Unfortunately, we have learned Harley will have a huge fit and destroy things if I go for a walk without her. The pup will whine anytime one of us leaves so he'll likely be worse if I take Harley without him, too. I'll have to be very mindful about getting enough steps moving around through the day to make up for that. I'll have to also be mindful about calories on a non-workout day. Yoga will be iffy since Smoke wants to be in my face or lap whenever I'm on the same level as him while Harley has started interfering with my workouts because she's jealous. I might have to move it to lunch or after work/dinner when BF is awake and me disappearing behind closed doors won't be so traumatic and cause the pup to whine incessantly. Right now, I'm afraid he'll whine and bark enough to wake BF up if I lock him away from me. Growing pains! I'll try to post a photo of him and Harley from my phone once I'm done posting this but he's so cute and the growing pains are worth it. Or they will be once we've settled in :p

    Previous Day's Comments
    1/12 - Would you look at that! I managed to maintain this loss and meet my goal for the round on the first day! That's even after eating out last night and having half a personal pizza (with added protein/veggies) and a single cocktail (treated that as dessert). I was mindful of my choices, my calorie allowance/movement, and my goals when making the choice. I only ate back 100 exercise calories out of the 300! I also took my time to allow my body to tell me I'm satiated before continuing. I'd normally eat nearly the whole pizza in the past but now I know better and I'm proud of that progress! Rough night last night so I slept until naturally awake, just a few minutes before my work alarm. (I have a workout alarm an hour earlier than my work alarm). Not sure today's plans but I'll have to figure out how to get some movement/stretching in. I should have a lunch break today to fit in yoga at the very least.
    1/13 - We got a new puppy last night. He was found beside the highway on Dec 30th with porcupine needles all in his face. He's off antibiotics, still healing, but good for adoption. We think he was abused and dumped because he cowers to when BF talks stern (training talk, not a good boy/good job talk). He has no issues with me, though. Our other pup, Harley was also abused as a pup so its a hurdle BF already knows how to work through. He's about 6 months old and so sweet. A mutt. Lab mix, we think American pit. Harley is red-nosed pit and sharpei mutt. She's jealous, but it hasn't been 24 hours yet. She hasn't attacked, though, which was a big concern. It'll take time... Anyway, I woke up at 3am and didn't bother weighing, just went to the other room to read and then sleep on couch once tired enough again. Dinner is pre-logged since we're having dinner with Fam at theirs tonight. Only thing I haven't done is my 15 minute workout. Think I'll split it into 2 and do one now (once I post), one later, maybe before dinner. Journaling done. All other goals good (: Hopeful for this weekend to go better than the last.

    1/17 - What a weekend! I was up early Saturday and Sunday to try to get a deer for freezer stock (last day of hunting was Sunday). No luck. After, I had to grab some fast food and head to Fam's new house to help with reno on both days. About 2 weeks until they'll be moving in! So exciting. Saturday we ate out at a burger joint while Sunday FamHubs smoked some beer can chicken for dinner. I was super active and MFP shows I was under calories both days due to the amount of activity. I'm guessing it can't be too far off since I did lose despite the weekend. We got a new puppy (Smoke) Thursday afternoon. Yesterday he went and got neutered on BF and I's day off. While BF took him, Harley and I went for a walk (she's jealous of him) and then I knocked out my FeelGood Plan workout. I didn't get a chance to do it Friday so I wanted to get right back to it despite my day off. We also cleaned the house all day before getting Smoke back from surgery. BF's dad and brother were supposed to be here this evening but they had an issue with boarding their dogs so they'll be here early tomorrow morning. Just hoping, since BFDad worked nights all his life and he's more of a night person, he won't completely wreck my sleep. They're staying until either Saturday or Sunday supposedly. We found out Thursday night and I've never met either. I'm a tad nervous as they're both heavy drinkers and smokers....

    64 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 211 (my 143rd). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine.

    Goal for this round; first half still on holiday, second half on return I need to reverse the holiday weight gain.one. No binges, keep within calories & macros, try to get walking around the weather (don't like walking in the rain!!!)
    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. Healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    1/12 DNW - walked 11.1 miles yesterday.
    1/13 DNW - started with all good intentions of a better choices day which went to put in the evening, we were booked into the steak night, massive juicy delicious steak, half would have been plenty for me, was served with chips which I regretfully ate the lot & then cheesecake which to be honest was quite tasteless, so why did I eat it!! Felt bloated all night ?￰゚リᆰ. Walked 11.7 miles.
    1/14 DNW - made a concerted effort to eat more consciously yesterday, made better choices and left rice in my plate when I was satisfied. Walked 11.86 miles. Last full days holiday today.
    1/15 Today we leave to catch a plane home, tomorrow I will see the damage, sad I'm leaving the sun, happy I'll be getting back to normal eating and tracking the weight gain. 12.65 miles walked.
    1/16 141 – so, there's the damage !! 4 pounds up in 8 days, I'll endeavour to have a perfect 5 days to see if I can drop half of this. I'll prelog food each day and keep walking – 92.16 miles walked in the 8 days we were away, dread to think how much I would have put on if I'd sat around the pool all day!!

    exercise.png

    1/17 140 – 9.56 miles walked, perfect food day; 35 exercise calories eaten back.
    1/18 140 - 10.75 miles walked (in the snow which unexpectedly fell overnight!!) , 121 of 757 exercise calories eaten back.
