JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 228

SModa61 · July 2023

Round 228
July 1 - 10, 2023

61 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida).

SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then weight up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
SW MFP Sept 14, 2020 – 153 (lost 40, then stress took off another 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress became gain)
SW current MFP Jan 1, 2023 – 146.6
GW Maintaining between 124 - 126

Continuing to figure out maintaining, and to work on best nutrition and exercise.

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. Hubby and I seeing our family home and downsizing 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!

Day/Weight/Comment

7/1 (Mass) – 126.0 (Renpho 125.6) After two days of misbehaving, yesterday was going to be good. Day was tracking well. Dinner last night was us experimenting with cooking pizza on a pizza stone on the grill. Bought too much dough. Made too much pizza. Ate somewhat too much pizza. Felt like lead and was asleep before 8 PM. Today is leftover Pizza……

7/2 (Mass) – 124.6 (Renpho 124.4) Pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But all tracked and now all gone. Total calories for the day were 1752. I keep keeping my target calories low (set at 1500 right now). I need to invest some effort in finding what a correct number is so I can aim for it instead of restricting and binging. I am staying between the 124 and 126 despite my behavior, so that is a minor “win”. Will keep working on finding what works for me in maintenance, and maybe restricting and overeating is ok as long as I monitor overall.

Shoot. Opened the door to go walking……finally. Now it is raining. :’(

7/3 (Mass) – 125.6 I cannot have those extra cookie ingredients around the house. Today technically should be easy, and the ingredients are gone and cookies are being delivered.

7/3-166-Expected after the weekend and I ate a few chips while I was making dinner. Got home too late and it was too hot to do yard work or ride the horse. Got a lot of work done inside. Today is going to be cooler so I need to take advantage of that.

tishawj · July 2023

Hellooooo! I totally forgot to post yesterday to finish round 227....but basically it was a wash. I maintained in a two pound range through the whole month of June. Came to the conclusion that this summer is going to be tricky to keep to any type of routine so I'm ok with just trying to stay where I am until fall when we settle back to normal at home. We leave for our UK trip on the 9th so I won't be able to finish this round...but will keep this part of what little routine I have going until then.

Female - 51yrs - 5'5"
Goal Weight - to hang out somewhere 145-150
R227 EW - 166.6

7/1 - 166.0 - Happy Canada Day to all the Canadian 10 Dayers!!!
7/2 - 164.4 - I blipped down to 164.x last round too...maybe I've got it in me? Over 16000 steps and 45 flights of stairs yesterday from walking to work and running around the store and stock room. I now have two days off in Muskoka...Since I started this job I haven't had a day off to enjoy up here, I've been running back and forth to home. I think we will go for a kayak before lunch and then hang out on the dock. It's going to be a hot one.
7/3 - 165.0 - A bit of a bounce back up....not surprising. We went on a growler run to one of our favourite breweries after our kayak yesterday....so there was craft beer on the dock.

7/03 - 152.3 - There we go. I'm still holding on to water weight - we went mini-golfing and to TopGolf. First mini-golf was outside and no food/drinks on the course (which at 100 degrees in the sun is not at all smart...but that's just me). Had lunch and then a round of indoor mini-golf (a bottle of water cost $7 so.... yeah, didn't happen). Finally we went to TopGolf which I drink 2 large glasses of water. I didn't want to make myself sick, though. Also, though all this, I managed to be 1,300 steps shy of 10k. How?! So much walking. Ended up skipping dinner as lunch was at 2pm and very heavy. None of us were hungry by dinnertime. Today I took the dogs for a walk and completed my NF Journey kettlebell workout. Tomorrow is a day off, but I'm supposed to run. I'll see how I feel, soreness-wise and sleepy-wise, in the morning. Making veggie chickpea curry for lunches this week for myself. SD said she'd try it, too.

Previous Day's Comments

7/01 - Sodium blip. BF wanted out of the house (don't blame him) so we went and got Japanese at a new place. This one was definitely more mom-and-pop shop, homemade versus the other place which has more of a chain restaurant vibe. I did really well with pushing my plate to be taken away after piling my trash on it once I was full, a HUGE NSV. I'd normally feel obligated to pick at it while others ate and try to finish it to get my "money's worth". I didn't leave hungry, my taste buds were satisfied (even happy as I was craving sesame chicken), and I didn't feel sick from overeating. That was my money's worth despite there being more food on the plate. Not sure plan today other than SD has a "volunteer" job (they get paid but it's just to help increase staffing for a one-day event) from 1-9. Then that place puts on fireworks from 9-9:30 so we're hanging out at the fire station (upon request) in case of need (so dry with these record temperatures). LittleBro will come with us and SD will meet us there (it's maaaaaybe 1/4mile walk from the place she's working) to watch the fireworks together. Once I post and catch up reading, I'll stretch my poor sore hamstrings out while I read as everyone is still asleep.
7/02 - Scale blipped down to 151 range before settling higher. I do feel a tad puffy from the garlic salt at dinner, but not as bad as before. I'm also still very sore in the hamstrings despite setting aside time to stretch yesterday. I will do so again today. We had a freak storm form over us last night bringing much needed rain. My intended morning walk with the pups was also canceled due to continuing rain this morning. Oh well. Tomorrow is a scheduled walk, weather-permitting, and my kettlebell workout. Likely another lazy day today, especially with all the rain. If so, I'll keep reading like I did yesterday. It's nice to read my own books during the day and then my Book Club book (for that month) before bed.

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

Couldn't get out this morning to walk because it was storming. I am planning to wash my car after work, so that will give me some movement for the day. I got a new 40-ounce tumbler this weekend, so my water game will be on point!

7/03 - 183.2
Monday, Monday…. First cataract surgery coming up this morning. I’m very nervous, but keep telling myself it will be over in 3 hours, other than waiting around for a post-surgery check up. Then I get to do it all again in a week. I know it’s pretty routine, and everyone tells me it’s a snap, but still…. Anyway, my calories should be lower today!

@SheilaBoneham Wishing you the very best during your surgery. Prayers with you and the medical staff. Speedy Recovery!

@clprieur Congratulations on a full year of sobriety!!! You are Rocking It on every turn. Great job all around!

Day/Weight/Comment
06/30 …..198.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

07/01 -197.8- (Trend weight 197.4)

07/02 -197.6- (Trend weight 197.5) I celebrated my son’s 27th birthday yesterday with dinner out and a very special dessert. It was nice. I gave him a few small gifts but the big one comes next month when he goes to WWE Summerslam Wrestling down in Detroit in August. An expensive trip since each ticket was $315.00 each and lots of extra expenses on top of it. But it’s a dream come true for him. His autism keeps him fixated on certain things and pro wrestling is one of them. Summerslam has not been in Detroit in 17 years so this is a rare treat. He’s very excited. My Scale weight is s..l..o..w..l..y trickling down this last couple of days but the trend weight is inching up each day. I say, “Oh, Ye of Little Faith” to my trendweight app.

07/03 -196.6- (Trend weight 197.4) A nice step in the right direction.

SW: 212.7

7/1 210.3 (-2.4/-2.4) ~ After 20 hour fast. I'll be on vacation this Friday but once I get back, I'm going to continue with my Friday Fasts. It's working out well with a big loss and then small gains over the weekend but down just the same. In the past - I'd go the week and maybe see 1 to 1.5 pound lost only to gain all or more over the weekend.

7/2 210.8 (+0.5/-1.9)

7/3 211.0 (+0.2/-1.7) ~ At this point - I'm just looking to maintain. My "plan" is to continue with 16:8, basically skipping breakfast. I am taking my portable scale so I should be able to continue to weigh... it will hopefully also keep me on plan!

7/4 ~ Holiday

Day, Weight, Comment

7/01 - 182.6
Happy 🍁 Canada 🇨🇦 Day to the Canadians on here. Although I was born in the States, I am proud to be Canadian by parentage, and all my sibs were born in Alberta. I can’t believe it’s July already. The year’s half gone! July is “eye month” for me, with cataract surgeries this Monday & the next one, and then a string of follow up appointments. Not my idea of summer fun, but everyone assures me I’ll be glad I did it. I’m trying not to think much about it! Nervous. But I don’t seem to be channeling that into food, so there’s that. Now to keep it that way!

7/02 - 183.2
Yep. I ate a lot yesterday, including two pieces of cake. Yikes! I some of this is obviously water — can’t gain half a pound of fat in one day. I feel like that got the urge out of my system and today will be more controlled, although I’m quite nervous about tomorrow. Anyway, it’s love out right now, and our air quality is, for now, back to good. Have a happy Sunday!

7/03 - 183.2
Monday, Monday…. First cataract surgery coming up this morning. I’m very nervous, but keep telling myself it will be over in 3 hours, other than waiting around for a post-surgery check up. Then I get to do it all again in a week. I know it’s pretty routine, and everyone tells me it’s a snap, but still…. Anyway, my calories should be lower today!

My 17th Round
Age: 53
Height: 5’3.75”
HW: 345 lbs (Aug 2005)
LW: 135.4 (June 2023)
CW: 137 lbs
GW: 135 lbs
Long-term Goal: <145.6 lbs until June 5, 2024 (Normal BMI)

This round's daily goals:
1. <1300 + 50% exercise cals 10/10 days – 😊☹
2. 7.4 miles of steps 10/10 days – 😊☹
3. 8 cups fluids 10/10 days – ☹😊
4. Meditation 10/10 days – ☹☹
5. Strength/Bike/Swim 10/10 days – ☹☹
6. Attend work 3/3 days –
7. Stay under 140 lbs 10/10 days – 😊😊😊

7/1 – 137 lbs - Down -- lbs this round and 2 lbs to goal; /228 miles for July.
7/2 – 136.2 lbs - Down 0.8 lbs this round and 1.2 lbs to goal; 10.76/228 miles for July. Well, my weight is coming down again. Maybe this is what maintenance looks like? I am charting a bunch of things in Excel so I can easily look at any correlations between mood, energy, hunger, weight, calories, menstrual cycle, etc. So far I am finding it helpful to be able to easily compare those numbers. I have noticed that my mood goes a bit low every time I weigh myself and the number has increased, so that is something to keep an eye on. I feel like my hunger has been pretty low in the last several days, and my calories are definitely not excessive (except for the one day we went out for Greek food). I wonder if this is the calorie range and exercise level I’ll have to maintain if I want to maintain this weight. My mood was excellent yesterday! I got to go visit a niece of mine who I rarely see. It was so nice to see her and her partner. Plus I got 10 miles of steps in. Had a nice long walk in the morning with the dog and hubby. I also tried a new recipe for breakfast- some kind of Greek yogurt pancakes with strawberries. It was pretty good. So overall it was just a really lovely day. I wonder if that Cipralex is kicking in. Lol. Hope so.
7/3 - 136.6 lbs - Down 0.4 lbs this round and 1.6 lbs to goal; 16.76/228 miles for July. We went to my MIL for lunch yesterday, which involved a long drive back and forth. I didn’t make my exercise goals and my calories went off the rails – I didn’t track and there was McDonald’s on the way home. The scale is only up a bit today, but I am sure it will be up even higher tomorrow. I will try to stay on the straight and narrow today, but we are having my niece and her fiancé over for dinner, so we shall see what happens (they wanted to order Chinese). This is a different niece from the other day, btw. Lol. We are doing a lot of visiting, as hubby is rarely home this long for socializing. I had all last week off with him, which was amazing. This week I have to work Tues/Weds only, and then I go back on the 10th. Hubby probably will go back on the 17th. It is just great having him home. This Saturday I am hosting a kayaking/picnic for 9 of my family members, to celebrate my 1 year of sobriety (which is officially July 28th). I wanted to celebrate and didn’t want to do something that was sitting around and drinking. (IE, have everyone for dinner, or whatever.) So I came up with renting kayaks. Everyone was on board with that! So I have officially turned myself from a “party girl” to a “sporty girl”! Haha! It sounds silly but it really turned out to be quite an effective mind trick – thinking to myself, “What would a sporty girl do?” I do not miss drinking at all anymore, and I am so glad I don’t still have cravings, etc. It is difficult to feel my stupid feelings, but I guess it is better than being drunk every day. Plus, I am down 56.6 lbs since July 3, 2022, so I think overall it has helped me with my weight loss goals. Certainly I am killing it in the walking department, which I was not doing when I was drinking heavily. So I am proud of how far I have come. 😊 I was saying to hubby the other day that is surprising that I have not thrown in the towel and just started bingeing, this time, like I have always done every other time I have lost 30, 40, 50, 100 lbs. Always, no matter how long I restricted, I ended up going back to bingeing eventually and gained everything back and sometimes more. The difference is that this time I am not so hard on myself when I slip up or eat something that wasn’t on plan or go out for dinner or skip a day of exercise or whatever. I am wayyyy more gentle with myself, and forgiving, and I don’t beat myself up over it, like I would have in the past. Also I am being way more patient with the rate of loss – normally I would get so angry if I wasn’t losing “fast enough”, and eventually I would lose hope and just go back to over-eating (instead of restricting way too hard). So I have learned some self-kindness and some patience, at the old age of 53! Which makes me hopeful that maybe this time I will be able to maintain some kind of healthy weight, whatever that may turn out to be. I have not had hope of maintaining any amount of weight loss in… well, never, actually. So even though I ate too much when we went to McDonald’s last night, I am not too worried about it. I know my weight will bounce up, but I know we are on vacation, it is a long weekend, we were on the road and wanted something quick, and I was too hungry to wait the 2 hours till we got home, so I’m totally fine with it. I mean, I could have skipped the hot fudge sundae, but live and learn. Lol. Anyway, the point is that I feel very confident that no matter if the scale goes up a few pounds, if I just focus, I know it will come back down again in a few days; I don’t have to go into mega-restriction mode and punish myself with an unsustainable amount of exercise, etc. I just have to be chill, and everything will be fine. It’s really a very unusual state of mind, for me!

I am coming off a 10-day maintenance round. I’m experimenting with a cycle of doing 10 days at a deficit followed by 10 days at or just above maintenance. Repeat. It’s partly inspired by the MATADOR study but mostly is just my way of making this process sustainable.

7/3 DNW. I forgot this morning. I am struggling a bit and I’m craving carbs, so I’m going to spend the next two or three days getting the carb cravings under control. Plan is no more than 50 net grams of carbs but not worrying about being in a caloric deficit until I have the cravings under control. This strategy usually works well.

7/1 142.8 (trend 142.7) Ok, back to normal today. 2lbs up from the day I left for my holiday, not that bad! We got back at 3am last night and managed to resist stopping for food at the services on the motorway. I'm glad it's the first of the month and the start of a new round, else I might have been tempted to put off getting back to tracking until after the weekend. We had a bit of a disaster on the way to the airport. OH had strained his back putting the bikes in the shed so I'd had to do all the heavy lifting putting things in the car etc. When we stopped to refuel the hire car, I had to do it, which isn't something I've done in Portugal before. I got all flustered trying to prepay for the fuel with my limited Portuguese and ended up putting diesel in the petrol car! 5 minutes later we had broken down on the highway and had to call for recovery. Luckily our flight was delayed or we would have missed it, but I'm dreading finding out how much it's going to all cost us and am feeling very cross at myself about it all. OH has been quite chilled about it so far, but let's see when the bill comes in.
STEPS 5,343

7/2 140.8 (trend 142.4) I didn't do great yesterday so I'm very surprised to have this big drop today. Spent most of the day lazing on the sofa and had far too much of the apple and strawberry crumble that my daughter had made. Time to pull my socks up and get active.
STEPS 2,795

7/3 140.2 (trend 142.1) Yesterday was almost an exact replica of the day before, ate the wrong stuff and didn't get any exercise... self sabotage? anxiety? On the plus side another drop and my lowest weight since restarting in January. I'm beginning to suspect this is muscle loss not fat loss though.

Hi Everyone – Looking forward to another challenge, my 4th.
Female, 5’4”, 57 years of age
HW: 210 (May, 2022)
CW: 149.2
GW: still don’t know… hope I’ll know it when I see it in the mirror… chasing a “healthy” BMI first

Goals: Continue working on same goals from previous round because it seems to have worked!
Cardio: 8/10 days (only days I struggle with this are Sunday and Wednesday due to lack of time)
Bodyweight Train: 3/10 days <- The biggest struggle of mine currently. Really need to do this!
Logging Food: 10/10 days (using a food scale every time!)

SW Round 228: 149.2
7/1: 148.6 - bouncing around that 148* - truly hope it sticks this week. Did my early morning 60-minute Zumba class this morning and just finished meal planning and writing my grocery list for the next several days. I am off from work for the next 4 days... I feel so decadent! Had to buy a couple new sports bras this morning as I am shrinking

I've also notice my sandal straps around the ankles are looser... need DH to punch some new holes for me.
7/2: 149.6 - and I continue to bounce. All good here. Was supposed to have the family over for lunch and game day, but oldest DS is sick, so we're going to attempt to do this on Tuesday instead. On the bright side, that means I can do my workout early instead of trying to do it late and being too tired to get it in. Looked in my closet to see what I can fit into... I have a dress that I've had for a couple of years where the material and the cut just hug the body. A few weeks ago, it still did not look all that great on me even though I have already lost around 60 pounds, but this morning, it is almost passable. I'll try it on again in a few weeks... hope springs eternal.
7/3: 148.2 - makes me smile to see that, even if it is fleeting. Going to try to get an extra workout in today since I am home, and I won't have my Zumba class tomorrow. Other than that, pretty quiet for me.
