    R238⚖️: SW 134.0 (10/11)
    RGW: 133

    Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻
    🛑🎢!
    ———————————

    10/9 DNW Yesterday: 22k steps, 8.5mi hike, 1147 ex cal, ate 1395 ✅macros

    10/9- Yesterday: Duck egg omelet for breakfast-delish! Steak burger lunch (no bread) & unfortunately SAME for dinner. I wanted grilled chicken last night but the restaurant was out of everything after a record weekend…. So just ate boring! Outstanding hike yesterday. Glorious sunset. Driving home today. Wonderful few days. Will not ⚖️tomorrow to give myself a day to reset. Long hikes provided ample time to reflect…. Invigorated. Ready for this Round!

    10/10 DNW Yesterday: In the car, most of the day, slept well last night. Good to be home - looking forward to getting back in the groove and adding walking. ✅Calories and macros.

    Fridge and pantry ✅ Already 24oz 💦 by 7am.

    I certainly wish we had some hills nearby, but our topography is simply flat as flat can be… I’ve planned Tennis and to walk 4+ miles this evening. Get to spend time with my DGS this eve! 😎❤️

    Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻
    🛑🎢!
    ———————————

    10/11 ⚖️134.0 ngl really thought ⚖️ would be lower but guess what?!…NO emotions here! The 🎢 has been DEFEATED! Weight is going down much, MUCH slower than I had anticipated based on past results so it’s preparing me for the maintenance phase… “Mother Time” … This is basically how I’ll live the rest of my days….Embrace it! SIX more lbs to go. I’m not so much focused on the “pounds” but just the way I want to feel including a closet of tight clothes waiting to be worn…

    I’m most interested in losing fat/ gaining muscle … planning to start “targeted” strength training/lifting beginning 11/1… Let’s see what I can do between now and November 1st! My plan is to take 2-3 ST instructional classes to make sure my form is 💯 correct and then I’ll take it from there.

    Tennis was canceled this morning. I got in 12.3k steps, 60 ex minutes, 1223 cal, 500 move cal. Mac✅ Spent most of the day washing clothes… afternoon 4 mi walk. Settling in.

    NSV: TBH, I look and feel like I’ve lost 15+ pounds… Getting a few compliments… Per the scale - only lost 11 (Counting a week before joining this challenge). I’m still positive.

    Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻
    ———————————

    10/12 Yesterday: ✅ cals, macros. ❌ everything else. Rained all day. Tennis cancelled. DH home all day so I got side-tracked. No exercise. 4k steps. Yuck. Easily distracted today. At least I ate well. Tremendous sadness and anxiety about world events. 🎢 Must train my thoughts to focus again. Focus on what I can control. Pray. Awake @ 3:30Am. Starting my day now. Will walk early this morn and ST. 🏋️‍♀️

    Let’s do this! 💪🏻🙌🏻
    ———————————

    10/13 ⚖️ 133.5 Satisfying.

    Finally 10lbs since joining the this challenge 75 days ago (12lbs since mid-July) 5.5lbs to go- will take longer? Maybe the way I’m tackling this process will give me a “late” whoosh? Who knows… I do know I’m dutifully committed to the process and “falling in love with taking care of myself!” That sentence just put a smile on my face!

    ✅ cals, macros, activity min, and ST🏋️‍♀️! But… ❌ 11.4k steps

    For the third day in a row tennis was canceled… I managed to get in a 1mile jog and a 3.5 mi walk. I purchased a small insulated backpack for grocery store walks. I’ll make it a 3+mi RT (When I go for relatively few items.) A new journey! I doubt I will do it in winter, but for the next few months, I’m doing it! Yesterday was my maiden treck… ✅ Our perpetual chapel is on the route. I stopped in yesterday… This shall become a new healthy/meaningful step as well.

    We are going out to dinner tonight and tomorrow night, so I am pre-planning - today’s fuel and tonight’s food/drink. Looking forward! Finally, Tennis and ST 🏋️‍♀️ today …. Also spending half the day with my DGS. Blessings galore! Happy weekend all!

    Date/weight/comment

    10/09 - 153.2 - I did not drink enough water yesterday and I had a turkey taco (sodium) for dinner last night. I'm hoping I can get back to starting weight in the next couple days.
    10/10 - 153.2 - Sigh, I'm hoping to see the scale drop tomorrow.
    10/11 - 152.7 - OK, I'm sticking to plan and starting to see my weight drop back down.
    10/12 - 152.1 - Finally made it below my starting weight. I hope this sticks.
    10/13 - 151.8 - Yay! Now to navigate this weekend. My granddaughter's first birthday is Sunday and I'm helping my daughter with the party. I'll take some healthy snacks with me to munch on while I help her decorate tomorrow.
