Round 222: JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS

Hi, this is my 2nd round.
I’m Amanda, almost 50, wicked short 4’11” from New England.

My 1st goal is for mid-June (trip to LA/Vegas),
2nd goal for mid-August.

Appreciate all your support.

- Pre-plan meals for the day
- Daily movement
- No Late Night Snacking

Round 221 SW: 126.8
Round 222 SW: 122.6 - debated 4.2#
Round 222 GW: 120

5/2 – 121.6
Great start to Round 222.

5/3 – 122.0

5/4 – 122.2
Almost did 1 pull-up: it's close. It's coming!
Max pull-ups = 8. **WHEN** will I ever get to 9?

I upped my hip thrust to 50#+thin bar. This feels good.
PR hip thrust was 205#. I’m coming back (so ever slowly).

Round 222
45/F/Indiana
Always welcome new friends
I am back to 173.0 - I've lost these 3 lbs about 5 times now, so now that I got that out of my system, the goal is to break out to the other side and get away from them for good! 160's I'm coming!!!
Goals: 100+oz water a day, 8k-10k steps a day, cardio 5x a week, strength 3x a week

5.2.2023 - 173.0 - Heading to the gym tonight. Started a new gym and I'm loving it! Plus I'm only paying half of what the old gym costs and this gym has way more. Win, win! Let's knock out these next 10 days!

5.3.2023 - 174.2 - well I ate too much last night, so there’s that. Ugh 😩 I couldn’t stop. But today has been better so far. It’s the evening time that gets me. Heading to the gym soon.

5.4.2023 -173.8 - Last night was strength training and cardio at the gym. I was super sluggish, but finished. Should have done more. I don’t feel so sluggish today and I know it was from the pizza carbs. Staying on track so far today. Let’s see a lower # tomorrow!

Prior Days This Round

5/2 213.1/213.8 ~ Not terribly surprised after the drops the past couple of days. All good. Got all my water in yesterday!! 🍎👌✅🚶🏽

5/3 212.8/215.6 ~ Oops, up 1.8 from yesterday. Normally this result would send me spiraling...but this is just how my body works... Fact: I did not eat/drink +5,250 above maintenance (3,500 equal 1 pound). Fact: I did eat/drink ~600 above by targeted calories. I did get all my water in! Tomorrow's another day.👌✅🚶🏽

@CamandJarvis In the US, by law, ingredients are listed on the package on descending order. So if garlic is first it is the largest component.

@mkksemail I haven’t read all of the messages to see if anyone gave you the rundown on abbreviations so -

GW - goal weight
RGS - round goal weight
UGW - ultimate goal weight
TMI - big trip to the bathroom
“kitten” - MFP’s substitute for any word it doesn’t think we should use.

05/02 -193.6- (Trend weight 192.3)

05/03 -193.4- (Trend weight 192.6) A slight drop which I’m quite sure I don’t deserve. It was a good food day yesterday until the late night muchies set in. I hope the scale doesn’t tip in the next few days as a reflection of my lack of willpower lately. Every time I try to steer this boat smoothly, I end up sailing right off the deep end lately. I need to keep typing my weight in pink!

05/04 -193.6- (Trend weight 192.7) Well there is that sneaky little increase that was hiding from the scale! So glad it’s only 0.2!!! I had a great food and exercise day yesterday. Stayed on track and watched all my p’s and q’s. This too shall pass.

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 6 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

Looking through my pictures (hunting for my PR hip thrust), I found a few of these pictures.
I was 113# (only 4'11").
While I remember feeling great about my weight/body, etc, I recall still thinking about dropping another 5-10#, aiming for 105-109#. My lowest ever since hitting puberty was 112#.

Would you think that I have mild version of Body Dysmorphia?
Because I am still aiming for 105-109 elusive goal.

@39flavours - to be honest I get more stiff if I don't walk 😁. Over the last 3 years I've developed a 'dodgy' hip, not too painful, more of an ache, which occasionally does give me a sharp reminder that it is there, but if I don't walk it is worse, almost as if I have to keep it moving!! Strange!!!

Would you think that I have mild version of Body Dysmorphia?
Because I am still aiming for 105-109 elusive goal.

@huango The composition of the 112# of your youth may be very different from you today with your weight lighting and such. Have you considered measurements as a goal instead of a number of pounds?

This round I need to reframe the way I have been thinking about calorie counting. I need to think of it as a vehicle to help me rather than thinking of it as a restriction. Another issue I need to address is that I have become comfortable with my current weight. I need to realize that to keep me healthy, mobile, and independent, I need to lose another 20 pounds.

5/2: 163.4 lbs
5/3: 164.0 lbs

Well it hasn't been a good start to this challenge. I haven't counted for the past few days. But I have pre planned today so I am hopeful I will follow through. I lifted a 10 pound weight last night and it makes me realize just how heavy that weight is. I need to imagine that weight off my body and the relief it will give my joints.

I was/always been a plump/husky kid.
The 112# was achieved in February 2020, right before covid.
Yes, I did do measurements, especially since the scale didn't move much the last few months. (very sad with the disappearing boobs).

But I'm still stuck with wanting to be under 110#.
I used to be crazy and wanted to be 99#.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 222
