❤️February Daily Weigh-in and Logging Challenge❤️

Hi there! I’m Amanda from Michigan. Pretty cold and gray here but I plan to visit Bali this year so I keep that in mind. ☀️
I start radiation therapy for breast cancer treatment this month and have no idea how my body will react to that, so I’m setting my goal low, to get into Onederland and stay there, even if it’s 199!

❤️Feb 1: 200.5
💔Feb 2: 201.2
I seriously think my body is allergic to Onederland.

Heartbreaking. I’m watching my macros and I was only 10 calories over yesterday. I weigh every gram I eat and every ounce I drink, even black coffee. I eat 5 servings of fruit/veggies everyday. I have sodium set lower than what MFP recommends. I drink 90-100 ounces of water everyday. I’m trying, I’m really, really trying.

I keep forgetting to post my something fun for February. I wish it involved a beach and sipping something delicious while the tropical breeze ruffled my hair…anyway, my friend from Bali is coming here and I haven’t seen her for a year. It will be so good to see her! She’s like a breath of fresh a

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

02/04-196.4-(Trend Weight 196.8)- I fasted yesterday until 2:00 pm which made me miss a meal. I also worked more in my bedroom with the clothing organizing. I cleaned out another drawer (the t-shirt drawer) and also worked on replacing more hangers with the wire-top velvet hangers. They are thinner which helps me fit more in the closet. Also, no more clothing falling off the white plastic ones to the floor. Clothes stick like glue on them. Love it! That, along with my routine exercise machines helped me burn extra calories for the day. I’ll be working more in the bedroom today but I really need to make the food choices even better and as healthy as I can handle. I see an endocrinologist for the 1st time on Feb 15th where I will try to convince them to keep me off insulin and allow me to let my diet lower my blood glucose levels along with the help of my current pill-form diabetes medicines. I plan on asking them to give me 3 months (until the next A1C blood test) to prove that I can improve with a proper lower carb diabetic diet. So I better start eating one, or more specifically, STICK TO eating one!


02/05-195.6-(Trend Weight 196.7)- A good day yesterday food-wise, but an awful lot of sitting on the computer. I did get in a 30 minute stationary bike ride last night, but otherwise….Babysat DGS so there were a lot of stairs, just not a lot of steps. I’ll work on doing better today. Today will be a bit of a high sodium day as I finish up my egg drop soup from an out-of-town restaurant. I’ve pre-logged my day and am already sipping water alongside my coffee. I woke up starving with my stomach continually growling. Today will be challenging but do-able if I just stick to the prelogged plan.

Happy February! I earn a heart when I stay under calories. I'm shooting for consistency this month and losing 5 pounds.

Fun February Goal - Return to Zumba classes.

January Weight Loss = 0.7 lbs
February Weight Loss =

2/01 - 187.3 ❤
2/02 - 186.7❤
2/03 - 190.2❤ - sodium I believe
2/04 - 188.2
2/05 - 191.1 - Late shift always equals over-eating (+250) for me, high sodium too
2/06 - 190.7 - over calories (+78)
2/07 - 191.1 - over calories (+156).

Week 1 - this is where the mind tricks start to play in my head. If I compare the difference between the calories that I had been eating prior to re-starting MFP to the calories I tracked this week, then I should have lost at half of a pound - not gain almost three. But I need to take a moment to not let that first emotional thought take over. I have to take other factors into consideration, such as sodium, carb processing, and errors in tracking into account. I also know that 190ish is has been the set-point for my body for many months now, so I need to remember the advice from my endocrinologist to stay on track and results will come.
