Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 221

If/when I get circumferential body lift, I think my pant size would be even smaller – it is hard to get the waist over the blubber that is hanging there. The other thing is that I tried on shorts and realized that my thighs are just…
I have quite a lot of loose skin from losing the excess I carried for almost 60 years, thighs are quite saggy, that stops about 4 inches above my knees then my legs are skinny but muscley from all the walking I do, but I'd rather have the saggy skin than the fat!!
I also sag EVERYWHERE! So frustrating but if I would get back to fasting for a little longer (48 hr) I think I would see that shrink at least a bit.

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 over 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

Since starting the meds for hypothyroidism, I see you've had steady weight loss.. did you also alter your diet to cut carbs or anything? I have hypothyroidism and have continually struggled to keep the scale from going up with very little losing results no matter what I do

@coffee_and_chaos I never really changed my diet to lose weight. I am allergic to Beef and lamb-other than that, I put little restrictions on my diet. I go back in two days to have my thyroid blood test again-not sure if that is or isn't the reason I lost weight and now it has stalled. I think I lost most of my weight on my treadmill-I have always been a light eater (abt 1200 calories). I started gaining weight when I started writing again during Covid, I now am making sure I exercise more-burning about 300-500 calories a day on the treadmill. Not sure if that answers your question. Good luck2

After taking a diet break for 3 rounds, I am back around 1 pound heavier. We had a lovely holiday at the same time which involved lots of eating out but also lots of walking. It was so nice to relax and not worry about food or counting and I am really surprised I haven't gained more. It gives me some hope for maintenance.
I admit I am struggling to get back into the weight-loss mindset though so for this round I am just going to focus on counting again and getting 22 active minutes.

Feel free to add me as a friend 😊
EW round 220 - 172.2 down 1.3 lbs
SW round 221 - 172.4
Goals for round 221
To hit 170!!! And hit an 80 lbs total loss! I can do this!!!
Water! Water! Water!
Run every other day
4/22 - 172.4
4/23 - 172.2 - The HS had a huge fundraiser and the last 2 days I’ve been volunteering to help deliver 31,000 bags of mulch! I’m wore out! And surprisingly my weight didn’t go up bc I ate like crap. Weigh in w my dr on Wednesday.6 -
Back for another round. My goals for this round will be a bit different. I’m flying back home on April 26 for my mum’s memorial (my mum passed away in mid-February 😢). I’m there for a week and will be staying in a hotel so won’t be able to weigh in for the second half of the round. My goal is to log everything, even while I’m away, just so I can stay accountable. And hopefully it will help me maintain the progress I’ve made so far.

65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 221 (my 152nd). As always, thank you. @QuiltingJaine you are a star!
Back from a week away, tomorrow I will weigh in, first time since we went away. Goal for this round; any loss and keep binge free, not going to 100 days, starting small just going for 10, surely, I can make 10? This time!! Be mindful when I’m tempted! Keep within calories & macros. I can do this but, consistency is paramount, let’s do it for just 10 days as the reward is great!!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 taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 130. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

4/22 DNW – we travelled back home today after our week away, see what damage there is on the scale tomorrow.
4/23 140.8 – 7.95 miles walked, got a walk in after getting home & unpacking the caravan. Then some gardening to tidy it up after a week away, the weather was so nice, it was lovely to bring it back to scratch!! Lawns are now cut, edges tidied, weeding done before ran out of time. Dead heading still to be done. My first goal now this round is to get back below 140. Today we have a sibling’s lunch, all 6 of us plus partners, I get to see DB for the first time after his stroke 6 days ago, so pleased he’s agreed to still come, a positive step! Also meet DS’s new man for first time!! Going to be mindful and eat sensibly.
4/24 140.8 – 6.13 miles walked yesterday, all but 39 exercise calories eaten back. Really lovely siblings lunch yesterday, chose pesto & asparagus tagliatelle with grilled chicken, no desert but did indulge in a latte. DB is doing amazingly, he looks well, but words come out mixed up or he has difficulty thinking of the second half of the word, can’t really imagine myself what that feels like? It is an improvement as initially he couldn’t speak at all. He is positive, keeping cheerful & we are all convinced he will get that back, he does feel like his legs have been cut off whilst he can’t drive, but 3 weeks only left of that curfew. Thank you all for your kind wishes for him.

I'M WORTH IT !! 👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a PERMANENT HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
7 -
My name is Paula and I am a 46 year old 100% service disabled veteran from the Army.
This is my second round. I am signing up for a variety of challenges to help change my mindset about healthy habits and getting my weight under control. I want a better quality of life where I don’t have to ask my husband to constantly slow down when we are walking because he is going too fast.
I also use Noom, GOLO, and intermittent fasting (IF) using a 16:8 (fasting hours:eating hours) schedule to help affect the change with my weight. I have also DRASTICALLY overhauled my eating habits and what I eat to a more clean way of eating.
Starting weight - 240.4 lbs
Challenge goal weight - 237.2 lbs
4/22 - 240.4 lbs 🥲🤨 Fell off a little and did some emotional eating to equilibrate some pesky emotions and satisfy my personality need for comfort (my #1 personality need that is always getting me into trouble! 😒🫢
4/23 - 241.0 lbs 🤨🧐 Went to the movies to take the family to see “Super Mario Brothers” and the movie theater is my age old place to chow down like it’s my last meal and I’m on death row where I just eat the craziest most unhealthy crap to fully immerse myself in the experience. However….I didn’t quite do that this time! I ate two mini super small snack-eye size Baby Ruth & similarly mini Snickers, but passed on the movie popcorn heavily laden with delicious butter or mega sized fountain soda! I see this as a win for me! I’m getting there darnit!
4/24 - 239.6 lbs 😅😊 I missed my last workout and skipped strength training so it’s time to get back in the saddle. I am setting the intention right here and right now to go to the gym for cardio, then come home to do the next series of strength training exercises as designed by the hubby! I was having an overly emotional weekend because I am still in the process of implementing my routine and strategies to purposefully fill my needs buckets myself and ahead of time so I have a bit of buffer so I don’t have to worry about my arch nemesis/my subconscious looking for the easiest autopilot or otherwise way to haphazardly fill those needs buckets per my Emotional Mastery class. I created a template in my journal app to journal on my food & fitness aspect of being to help entrain good, healthy behaviors, but like I said I was having an emotional crap show this weekend so I just was too busy feeling sorry for myself to give myself a moment to remember what tools I have to get me some good habits brewing and new neural connections created to establish this different mindset. I’m a work in progress folks! 😰🤤😬

4/22 149.0 (trend 149.8) Started the round with a bit of a binge-fest last night, so that's not good! We had a trip to Oxford in the afternoon, so I got in a 3 mile walk along the river while waiting for OH to finish with his doctors appointment there.
I had the house to myself in the evening, so I took full advantage of stretching out on the sofa, watching tacky films until the wee small hours.
STEPS 7,134
4/23 149.4 (149.8) Had a slow morning, then got to the gym after lunch for a lower body workout. Totm started yesterday, and it affected most of my sets as I had to lower the weights on my lifts, so that was annoying. Got out for a 2 mile walk around town in the evening with OH, then a small pizza and a few beers with a film. Pretty much ate at maintenance, no tmi is probably why the gain today.
STEPS 8,564
4/24 150.0 (trend 149.8) We decided to skip breakfast and go for a walk and pub lunch. Did a 6 mile walk around a reservoir and didn't end up eating until 4pm, had Hunter's chicken with chips and salad, then overdid it with some snacks in the evening. I'm going to try my absolute hardest to stick to 1200 calories this week.

GIVE ME 10 DAYS – ROUND 221
Round 221
April 22 – May 1, 2023
61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).
Goal for Round 221 – This round will end with the challenge of traveling home 1600 miles, with a full day stop at MIL’s, followed by the last 1400 miles of the trip. Final weigh-in will be the morning after I return home (if the drive goes as planned). My dream for my time in Florida was to return home weighing less than 130, a place I had gotten to with the help this group in 2021. Returning home is the May 1 of this round. So my goal for this round is to be under 130 on May 1.
History:
Harry and Han are our cats, who travel with us. Have two “kids”, who are very much adults, a DGS, and second GS on the way. We have three parents, 88(father), 86(mother), 84(MIL) still with us, and I have logically been needing to help them more as they age. I got my act in gear during COVID, somewhat inspired by NOT becoming my parents. I lost 30 lbs and was exercising daily. Unfortunately, I am an “all in or not” person. Selling family home distractions, plus medical incident with my father and all their new needs, became an excuse. A year and a half later, I gained 25 lbs and lost all my athletic improvements. I need to figure out balance and how to make health be a daily priority for life!

SW: 130.0
Day/Weight/Comment
4/22 – 130.4 Last night, I just…needed….something…..more. Was not feeling like embracing the slight hunger of evening. I did track it all though, and came in around 2000 calories total (even tracking is still only best estimates). Combined with my activity for the day, I doubt it explains a true gain. So we shall see.
4/23 – 130.4 Again, total calories purportedly good, but I did make some poor selection making up those calories. On top of it, I feel “big” today. Will eat cleaner today and see how that all settles out tomorrow.
4/24 – 129.6 Back to the weight I saw during late round 220. Looks like I am in a slow moving patch. Yesterday, calories were good (1534), walked 6.5 miles formally, played over an hour of doubles pickleball. Just seems like getting into the 120’s and staying will take concentration. Today will have its challenges. We leave Thursday and pantry and fridge need reductions, so grocery shopping is minimal and balance of meals is less optimal, even when I am making a good effort. Then on top of it, Hubby wants Thai food one last time before we leave. That is tonight (then Chinese with his mother on Thursday…..). Just need to do my best for the round. If I am careful, I should be under 130 on May 1 like I am hoping.

Good Morning!
My whyI am playing a game with myself & setting little daily goals of losing 0.35lbs per day and using those goals to help me stay motivated and on track is a way of fasting that I saw in another group. Using my bathroom scale as a weight loss tool works for me. There are days that my weight increases by 2 pounds or more, and I understand that this is mainly water weight, and can go away as quickly as it came. That is why there are times that my daily goal and my weight that day are pounds apart. I am not expecting to lose 2 pounds of body fat by the next day. But it is possible to lose 2 pounds of water weight by the next day, so I stick to my goals. If it takes longer than one day to lose that water weight, I extend my fast for another day. Sticking to my plan, I will reach my 1st goal weight of 172 pounds on September 16 2023. This will put me in the overweight weight range which I have not seen since 2007. At that point I will decrease the daily amount to 0.2lbs per day to get to my ultimate goal of 140 by my birthday in February. I also have a cruise booked for my birthday & one of the tours offers a mini photoshoot. What a great opportunity to be at my goal & get semi professional pictures on the beach!
I did an extended fast on April 9th that lasted almost 9 days. That got me back on track after Easter.

I am not complaining about the scale 🙊 I know this is what happens. I am still almost down 10lbs, my eating is better, low calories, less mindless unplanned eating. I made fried kimchi cauliflower rice with shrimp last night that had great macros & was very satisfying & tasty. I had never tried kimchi before but we picked up a huge jar at Costco & fortunately we like it. I will probably make it again this week. I am challenging myself to cook with what we have in the house, everything is super full so I will have to do some digging in the cupboards & freezer & make some good low carb dishes.
4/23 -Goal 222.1 /Actual 222.6
Already another fasting day. I thought it would take until Monday. Oh well, no big deal. I have some meals to prep today for the week, hot yoga this morning & I will take the dog for a walk. I was noticing yesterday that I was moving better & felt lighter. The scale does not agree but I will not get frustrated. I knew going into this that the scale sucks. I continue to stick to my plan, fast when I am over the projected goal & know that it is just a number & does not represent failure.I have been eating under 1000 calories since I broke my fast except yesterday I had around 1400. I have not been drinking enough water & honestly now that I think of it I did some boredom/procrastination eating that I did not track. No big deal, it can be fixed but I need a strategy to stop that. Well, at least I have a strategy to deal with it when it does happen before it leads to weeks & months!
4/24 -Goal 221.7 /Actual 221.4
Well I didn’t fast yesterday but I was very mindful & ate low carb & less calories. I cooked ahead & should have enough food cooked for the week that I don’t have to worry about coming home from work & settling for taquitos & pizza pops. I will be working most of the week & starting to train seasonal staff so that they are ready when pool season starts. In yoga yesterday the instructor suggested something that reinforced my current goals. Self care, exercise, taking care of this extra weight is so important so that I am not a burden on those around me. My mobility is not affected now, but it will be in the future if I don’t take care of myself now.
