Just Give Me 10 Days Round 255

Feb 5th 2024- 200.4

I enjoy reading everyone’s posts with my morning coffee.

Rnd 254 EW 187.0

3/27- 186.8 I’ll take it! I actively resisted having a second drumstick ice cream cone last night. It’s been a while since my I flexed my mental “no” muscle with food.
It wasn’t a physical hunger cue. It was a “yummy- I’ll have more of that” hormonal craving. Lately I haven’t been denying those cravings but it felt ok to flex a bit.
I mean I did eat one ice cream cone! It felt ok to draw the line and not eat a second.
Although my inner voice said “it’s ok honey, if you still really want it when you wake up, you can have one for breakfast. And if you want a second for breakfast, you can have that too”

Round 255
March 27 – April 5, 2024

62 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 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 two parents, 87(mother), 85(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 (father has since passed and I am DPOA, Personal representative AKA executor, trustee, and oversee the majority of my mother’s care). 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

3/27 – 126.4 Lots went on in the round that I missed, but I will not bore you all. Glad I am back!

Handled DH’s 63rd birthday well, yesterday. Glad to see the scale agreed. The prior two days, I had eaten appropriate calories but had gained each of those days. Yesterday, similar calories, but weight came back down. I know if I were not tracking, I would be tempted to tailspin due to seeing those “ups”.

The “boys” (my cats) are still getting weighed regularly. If you see in my history, Harry was dropping weight (not eating and vomiting) and spent a bunch at the vet. Anyhow, I’ve got that turned around. My goal was 11.25 lbs. I overshot now with him and am now watching that he does not go higher. Han Solo, my rescue that was found at 7 lb, I always have to watch his weight. Grateful for microchipped pet feeders.

3/27: I've been skirting with this low-130s plateau for a long stretch now, which tells me that when I get this last 5 lbs off these are my "maintenance" patterns. It's pretty surprising how many (or actually how few) calories I need to sustain my weight and fitness, never mind lose.
Self, pay attention.

And, hello to all in Rnd 255! Love reading all your posts, they keep me going!

3/27 ⚖️130
Just want to report my 🎾 team won 🏆 our division yesterday and we are headed to state at the end of April. It’s just plain fun. I was EXHAUSTED after the match. As captain, it’s impossible to not be emotionally invested. Last night I was so hungry. Ate a burger with bacon & cheese. No bun. Scale approved this morn but will probably show up tomorrow. Crazy. Will drink tons of 💦 today. Sunrise walk now, then catch up with life today. Yes, will 🙆‍♀️🤸🏼📿🏋️‍♀️. Will do it all!

NSV: Since I went out of my regular eating patterns yesterday, I’ll follow up with plenty of water today. It’s a helpful habit.

About me, WOE & Health Journey
****************************
F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean Ketovore 🥩. Track macros, kcals, all exercise and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010.

WOE since 7/2023: Whole Foods. No processed foods. Animal-based proteins. EGGS, Beef, pork, chicken, seafood, venison and grass-fed whey protein. I count macros & kcals - always will. (Since portion control is my issue). Keto is high-fat but I’m now leaning lower healthy fats with leaner proteins. I had paralyzing IBS for 20 years. My mother was diagnosed with celiac’s disease in her 50’s. Following her lead, I eliminated wheat, oat, barley, and rye several years ago…. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive system… I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for a few days… I do enjoy berries, lemons, limes. Avocados are my weakness. Enjoy a piece of dark chocolate on occasion. Generally, I eat btw noon and 6 pm. (IF18/6). Alcohol? Used to be a social drinker and would enjoy a good martini/scotch or Paloma at home while cooking dinner. NO MORE. Root of many evils. Primarily, the destruction of will power and the enemy of optimal choices. I’d rather journey toward my best-self. I haven’t given up alcohol completely, but I enjoy it sparingly on special occasions. This is me. I finally feel terrific.

History:

I have ALWAYS been ON a “diet” since at least high school. I have never been comfortable with my body - NEVER EVER- no matter my weight.

Pre- college: 125-130lbs
College- up to 160lbs one year… graduated @130lbs.
Many different diets each decade!
1990 (Age 32) - Avg.135/140 lbs (my son was born 1988)
2000 (Age 42) -Avg 145 -160
2010 (Age 52) - HW 172 lbs in 2010. 130lbs by end of 2014.
2020 (Age 62) 130-135lbs
7/2023 (Age 64) 145lbs
1/2024 (Age 65) 130lbs

UGW = 129-130lbs
⬆️SMM: 100lbs +
BF% : 23%

Aug 14, 2014 @ 157lbs (down 15 from heaviest of 172lbs in 2010), I decided to take serious control of my health. I lost 30lbs by 11/15/2014. Weight @ 128-132lbs through the end of 2020. Six years!

Another 🎢 Roller Coaster Begins….

2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140 lbs. Always self-conscious.

8/1/ 2022 crept up to 142lbs.
Dropped to 128lbs again by 10/30 - held 130lbs till 2/1/23.

2023 Back ⬆️ 145lbs by July 15! 15lbs BOOM! Enjoyed eating & margaritas way too much. My nutrition has always been somewhat healthy BUT portion control is/was THE issue. Started tracking again 7/15/23. Joined “Just give me 10 days” R231 in beginning of 8/2023. Here we are @ 130ish determined to…. STOP the 🎢 & be in the
📣#bestshapeofmylife 📣

The yo-yo is exhausting & unhealthy. Takes up way too much brain space.

I learned MY choices created an emotional 🎢 roller coaster with yo-yo weight and fitness. My forever goal is to be healthy & fit & maintain approx. 130lbs & IN SHAPE - to enjoy my “Senior” years to my fullest.

While active with 🚶‍♀️& 🎾 it’s clear a ST 🏋️‍♀️🤸🏼routine was absent. Strength & balance are 💯most important now. Time to incorporate ST 🏋️‍♀️ 🙆‍♀️🤸🏼as my TRUE focus. I want healthy/fit choices to be my first nature.

Cumulative Round Results
7/15/23 SW 145lbs
R231 - R 247, lost 15lbs to 130.
Avg loss 1lbs per Round. Painfully SLOW.
Jan/Feb: Ticked up to a steady 132ish. Happier@129-130.
(I was in “maintenance” for 4 to 6 weeks & slowly ticked up.)
130.0 on 3/26/24

“Fit & Healthy” - striving to continuously improve my strength for an active quality of life. Let’s go!

RND 255 Same goals for this round, since the extra protein seems to be really helping.

3/27 173.1 Good start to the round 🙂. Stayed on track with my goals yesterday and ate mostly healthy. One thing that I noticed I need to work on is I'm taking in (mainly drinking) too many artificial sugars. Need to cut back on those. Other than that for the most part I am proud of myself for the healthy habits I have stuck with.

Thank you to @itladyee and @musicsax for keeping us going!

Here is my intended post from 3/12 —
3/12 DNW 3/12 DNW Waiting to Board ship I can’t get a good internet signal

I am so sorry I couldn’t get the next Round to post. I entered the title and went to my other screen to copy the body and the signal was gone. I was never able to get it back.

For the 2 weeks I was gone, my eating was totally off the rails. At least I ate a salad every day at lunch and tried to get veggies every evening with dinner. We only ate in the dining room once because they scheduled us for dinner at 8:15 PM and I prefer eating my meal by 4 PM which is before the dining room opens. So we tried to hit the buffet before it closed for dinner. My biggest problem is the inevitable temptation of pastries early in the morning. I was 130.5 the morning we left (3/11) and 137.5 this morning. So now, back to this job of eating properly for me. Another challenging week ahead as DGD#2 arrives for a one week visit tomorrow. OY!

Happy new round! It’s a cold, wet, windy morning here, so I’m hoping to finish a cardigan I’m knitting. That’s exercise, right? 🤪 I’ve been knitting up a storm the past few months—can’t snack when knitting. Here’s a wrap I finished last week.

It's been a while since I've been here, but decided to focus on weight loss again and this has always been a helpful tool for me. Lost 30 pounds last spring. then gained a few of those back. Have kept up my daily walks, but need to concentrate on nutrition. Trying to get in the 60's by my son's wedding at the end of April..

Day/Weight/Comment
03/26 …..183.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

03/27 -179.6- (Trend weight 181.1) I don’t think this weight will stick. I woke up yesterday feeling good and eating normally, but by late afternoon my tummy was making weird noises and I began to feel “off”. Last night I could not eat my dinner and ended up going to bed with just some “to-plan” snacks. My calorie and carb intake was pretty low overall. No sleep last night as I was up all night in the bathroom doing two of two things. Wow, I shed lots of water all night! I woke up today so tired but my tummy is definitely feeling better. I don’t know if it was a 24 hour stomach bug or food poisoning from the party Saturday. Several other people from the party ended up with the same symptoms. I hope today goes well. Good luck to everyone this round and welcome back @quiltingjaine.
