    @SModa61 Yes, Hyland’s Leg Cramps!! I have the PM version by the bed and the others in the kitchen. Some people think homeopathic “meds” are bunk but these really do work.

    Yes! They do work. As a writer of murder mysteries, I get a kick out of reading the label—a litany of highly toxic ingredients, but in minuscule amounts. I wonder how many bottles it would take….nevermind! 😇

    @SheilaBoneham Will it become your next murder weapon?

    @SModa61 The PM version is sublingual and dissolves AND helps instantly. (Just in case I didn’t say that earlier!)

    Had 2 glasses of wine last night and there we are...back to where I started...I hate this game

    Marlene, wine has sugar and I react to that. I made it a habit to drink a big glass of water after each glass of wine.

    Sheila, I LOL’d at your remark. When is your next mystery coming out?

    @deepwoodslady, Donna, I took 1 magnesium capsule last night. No cramping, but I did not sleep as deeply as with two. I'll continue on three more days taking 1 capsule. I'll let you know what happened during my 4 day experiment on Wednesday.

    @tiabirdie56 Okay Thanks! I'm trying to gauge how much to order at a time and this info will help!

    37F 5ft 7 SW 67.5kg round 225
    GW 60kg CW 67.1kg round 228
    1 July 67.1kg 33% body fat
    2 July dnw
    3 July dnw
    4 July dnw
    5 July 66.8kg 31.9%
    6 July 66.7kg 32.1%
    7 July 65.8kg 32.8%
    8 July 65.5kg 31.8%
    9 July 65.2kg 33.2%
    Very happy to see that I have truly recovered from that week or two of illness, not tracking, not exercising and some bad snacking. I'm still working out how the body fat percentage works - bf is up but weight is down? But I guess an overall average decrease is what you want. Something else I am taking note of is the effects of the type of exercise I do. The last 3 days I did 1 cardio and 2 metcon (metabolic conditioning) and they're only short workouts but fairly intensense and full body, combining strength and cardio. I'm wondering if the internet is correct in saying metcon is really effective for for weight loss 🤔

    65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 228 (my 159th). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
    Goal this round is yet again the same as last; to get back under and stay under 139. Holiday to Menorca is in 72 days, if I don’t crack on I’ll be needing to purchase a bigger size in holiday clothes and I do not want to do that. So, 72 days, 7 rounds at a pound per round should easily get me to where I want to be, only I can do it, I’ve done it before so I can do it again if I knuckle down otherwise before I know it I be up in the 150’s. Cuz that’s how weight just keeps creeping up on one !!! Really try to stay on track. After all I am what I eat in more ways than one, my whole demeanour is totally different when I am happy with myself!!
    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!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

    SW RND 228 139.2
    7/1 139.2 – 5.8 miles walked, calories 247, carbs 50g & fat 17g over. We travelled down to St. Neots in Cambridgeshire for a 5 day break (brought scales with me !!) had cheese & crackers for lunch, with small glass port – mmmm. But restricted portion.
    7/2 138.8 – 14.73 miles walked, 1 third of exercise calories eaten back.
    7/3 139 – 7.38 miles walked. We were at an airshow at Shuttleworth, so the miles were done in 5 short walks; the woodland walk, round the gardens, up to the house & then back and also an evening walk back at the campsite after tea. All exercise calories eaten back.
    7/4 139 – 9.85 miles walked mostly around the ground of Wrest Park, beautiful English Heritage property. 80% exercise calories eaten back.
    7/5 140.4 – that’s what pizza does! 10.13 miles walked, all calories eaten back.

    exercise.png
    7/6 140.4 – 11.68 miles walked, 40% exercise calories eaten back.
    7/7 140.4 – no structured walking, childminding little DGS, all exercise calories eaten back.
    7/8. DNW - came away in the caravan for the weekend to a steam rally, forgot to put the scales in! But, 10.24 miles walked yesterday and only 15% exercise calories eaten back. Determined to stay strong today, all that cider will be calling me, only had half a can last night and a taste is enough!
    7/9 DNW- will be home tomorrow for final day weigh in.4.81 meandering miles clocked up whilst viewing all the exhibits at the show, was so tired at the end of the day; slow walking and standing tired me out more than a shorter period at fast pace!! 172 calories over.

    7/7 - 190.0
    7/8 - 187.4 - Took Farley for a walk, we didn’t go as far because he was puling too much. Hubby's friend came over last night to play pool. I spent my evening watching Grey's. I started watching this a while ago on Netflix and only have 3 seasons left. My step count was not good but it was a stress free day. 6,985 Steps (28,014 left), 1 Floor (54 left), 36 Zone Minutes (166 Left).
    7/9 - 188.4
    7/10 -
    Previous Day's Comments
    7/1 - 189.6 - tracked food, Strength training - rest day, 8,488 steps (71,512 left), 9 Floors done ( 71 left), 59 Zone Minutes ( 391 left). 56oz water, under goal. Over all it was a good day. Got out for a 45 minute walk/run with Fraley.
    7/2 - 189.4 - bad day. Didn't track, didn't wear Fitbit most of the day 1,894 steps (69,618 left) 1 Floor (70 left), 5 Zone Minutes (386 left). Water not tracked. Smoke and bad air quality was back.. Spent the day baking donuts and watching TV, not great.
    7/3 - 190.4- good day, didn’t track my food that well . Strength training completed, 6,902 steps (62,716 left), 5 Floors (65 left), 31 Zone Minutes (355 left).
    7/4 - 191.6 - overall good day. Didn’t track food or water I really need to get this on lock. Rest day from strength training, muscles are sore from the other day. 9,443 steps (53,273 left), 3 floors ( 62 left), 31 Zone minutes (324 left). I listened to 2 episodes of the coaches cup podcast. Took Farley for a walk last evening, we didn’t go as far the other day but we got out and he had fun
    7/5 - 190.4 - average day, it got a little hot in the afternoon and the smoke was really bad again from the fires. I finished tracking my food this morning. I was over for my calorie count. My water was little low, still need to work on that. 8,752 steps (44,521 left), 4 floors (58 left), 81 Zone Minutes (243 left). Farley and I didn't get out for our walk due to the air quality. I did a new strength training workout. Found it on YouTube Senior Fitness Seated Dumbbell Workout For Beginners | 20 Min, it is part of a workout series Senior Fitness with Meredith. I think that I am going to continue to use this one.
    7/6 - 189.8, not the best day. Started out really good, but then the pull of my chair and cheese pleasures got to me. Thinking that maybe I should throw out my chair or at least make it so that I can't just sit easily. I tracked my food this morning, which is better then not tracking but I need to get in the habit of tracking as the day goes. I was just under for my calorie count, barely and in truth because I didn’t track as I ate I probably under represented what I ate. My water intake is still very low, need to work on that. 5,961 steps (38,560 left), 2 Floors (56 left), 36 Zone Minutes (207 left). Farley and I did not get out for a walk last night it was simply too hot for him. I think that I am going to have to start taking him in the morning.
    7/7 - 190.0 - Did the second day of my weight workout, again at 2lbs. Thinking that on Sunday when I do it again I will increase my weight to 5lbs. Had a visit from a friend and helped him out with some computer stuff. I didn’t take any time to sit around in my chair until after dinner. My step count was horrible. I did nothing almost all day and man does it show. 3,561 Steps (34,999 left), 1 Floor (55left), 5 Zone Minutes (202 left). Farley and I did not get out for a walk again.
