Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 256
Replies
-
Hi! I’m new to this here. I used to do this daily or weekly posting for accountability with a group of friends using a FB group. They’ve all stopped and I’m so glad to have found this challenge! Goals: no eating after 9 every day, and 30 min of exercise on days with a *.
4/6 - 156.8. After avoiding the scale for too long, I faced the music. It’s time to take some action.
4/7* - 155.8. Hmm. I think the scale is trying to motivate me thru kindness?

Day/Weight/Comment
04/05 …..181.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/06 -181.6- (Trend weight 181.2) I started having some serious problems last night with a few of my end toes swelling up and becoming extremely painful. First they bunched up and then they became similar to inflamed. I am having a hard time walking. I know I didn’t step on anything but as a diabetic and former smoker I am concerned. I am having a hard time walking. There is no hospital in my county at all, but there is a hospital about an hour away and also a walk-in emergency clinic. I have no idea which one to go to or if that walk-in clinic has machines or equipment to check me. It definitely feels like I’m not getting blood flow to the toes and part of the foot. If anyone has medical knowledge and/or opinion on which one I should go to I would appreciate an opinion. Good luck this round everyone. I hope I can get back into the 170’s this round and move forward. Oh, the best laid plans of mice and men. Will I fail to plan or plan to fail, as they say?
04/07 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) I didn’t weigh today because I knew this very large club foot would skew the numbers. I started with the walk-in clinic yesterday. After an hour they ended up sending me over to the hospital (I drove myself which was only about another mile). They were worried about a blood clot and wanted tests done they could not perform. I ended up being there all day and didn’t get home until 11:00 last night! They did xrays of my feet and also my chest (to check for blood clots). An EKG which came up abnormal showing a left bundle branch block. I have been told of that one before but nothing has been done for it, not sure why. Then they did leg doppler ultra sounds followed by CT scans of the chest and legs using contrast dye. Thankfully they did not find blood clots nor any trauma or injury. (Diabetics may not always feel if they’ve stepped on something or punctured). They are settling for diabetic neuropathy. So strange as I have always thought that was a phantom pain or burning, not an actual physical thing with this kind of swelling and redness and pain. They gave me 10 days of muscle relaxer because of the way the toes bunch up at night. I’m not sure what 10 days is going to do. They have been bunching up for several years. They did not see any sign of infection in the toes, feet or lower leg but my white blood count is up in several of the blood tests. Also, it “sheds” and those numbers are abnormal as well. They want me to follow up with my family doctor to run down the causes of these numbers. That makes me nervous as I am getting ready to return to the University Hospital this month for that 6 month breast checkup because of them finding something unusal in my Mammogram last fall on the “other breast” that did not have cancer. It’s so disappointing when you work so hard to get healthy and things keep popping up. You just can’t outrun some things…. Including family history and age. Anyway, I’m okay today. I just have to keep the foot elevated and rested. Sunday is a good day to do this. Thank you everyone for your suggestions and your love & concern.

@musicsax:Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something. Takes me up to the day before I officially become an OAP! How can that be I can’t possibly be that old – I feel much much younger 😊.
Good luck everyone for a successful round.
I'm not sure, but I think "OAP" has something to do with being over 65? If so, welcome to the club! Old enough to have figured some things out, young enough to enjoy life!
Yes, Old Age Pensioner which in the UK is when you are aged 66 and over !!2 -
@deepwoodslady - I hope you are ok and your feet are feeling better too 🤞xx2

4/7 - DNW Drove back home this afternoon and took a little nap. So far today I’ve been good. A lot of gardening yesterday helping my mom with spring cleanup. At our rate it will be mid summer before we get it all finished, I visit her every other weekend.

4/7 - DNW - I’ve been away for a few rounds - but I’m back now. Hectic crazy work schedule and then a long trip for Spring Break. We spent a week in Italy and I am happy to find that despite eating A LOT and not running very much at all, my weight has maintained right where I left it when I fell off the 10 day challenge train in mid-march. Now it’s time for me to get back on track and start the scale moving again. Because of the crazy stress of my work right before the trip, my running momentum suffered and I ended up being set back quite a bit. I had been aiming for a marathon the last weekend in May, but now I will need to revise my plan. There is no way I can be marathon ready in 6 weeks. It is disappointing, but I am not going to let the setback pull me completely off track. I have built a good base. Slow though it is, I am getting stronger and faster with time and if I dust myself off and get going again, the damage of the few weeks away I have taken will be minimal. New marathon target is set for August 24th. Training starts tomorrow.

4/7- 160.2 I slept in until 10 AM this morning. I haven't done that in months if not longer. I haven't been getting restful sleep lately, so that's probably why.

🎷 65 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 256 (my 186th). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! To be consistent and lose something. Takes me up to the day before I officially become an OAP! How can that be I can’t possibly be that old – I feel much much younger 😊.
Good luck everyone for a successful round.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 target of 130 = 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.

4/6 141.8 – (trend 141.3) – again no structured walking as attended funeral of an elderly aunt (94), she was the last of her generation, so a sobering thought for me is that now I am the oldest of my paternal side of the family!!

Still not “feeling” the “healthy & fit” …. I keep reminding myself that I am NOT my thoughts or my feelings. Somehow I was successful in completing all of my round commitments yesterday even though I felt an internal braking system gnawing at me to stop & piddle. NSV: But I somehow pushed through it. Took every ounce of energy. Thank God. ✅Hit macros. Yes, I’m counting again.
That unavoidable, awful, worrisome, emotional family issue is currently at full throttle & front & center. …. All of my joy gets sucked out. Takes tons of energy to even TRY to stay positive. I conquered the internal battle yesterday by simply “doing” the commitments. ✅. Didn’t even feel good about it… Just blah.
But…. I do get to see my DGS today… Have not seen him since 4/27. I cannot wait! He sure is a sight for sore eyes. A full day of my “to do” list shall be completed before I pick him up. Today: Will fake it till I make it …
Let’s go stretch…. Onward.

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.

4/6- 187.0
4/7- 187.4
4/8- DNW traveling I got in a quick run before the four hour drive. Not enough moving throughout the day and my brothers family is not entirely “active”. I forgot to throw my running sneakers in the car. I will probably spend some time picking up in their garden and take a walk to the park with the five year old.
My eating wasn’t terrible yesterday until my dad ordered dessert- I went right along with him. To put it mildly, my mother is a difficult woman and I shoveled a brownie ice cream sundae into my pie hole to push down the frustration and anger.
I am certainly not blaming my mom for a life time of being overweight and battling eating disorders but I’m pretty sure our family dynamics didn’t help.
I will be very happy to get home to my peaceful life. Maybe I can unpack some of these feelings there. For now I will try not to fill the void with food.8 -

I will take this scale reading after my German feast last night at the German American Society. I even had a piece of German Chocolate cake. (is that even really German?) Even so, my calorie budget was busted by only a little bit. How many times can I write the word German?
Thanks @quiltingjaine for setting it up the round. This one takes us to Tax Day. Our last entry should be postmarked by midnight.

/logged; Exercised; 45 oz water fiasco/
This is the residual effect of the past two days of too much salt and not enough water. Out shopping with DW yesterday and we decided to stop for some Vietnamese food. I had a “small” bowl of Pho. It was actually huge. Though very reasonable in calories, it was very high in sodium. And delicious.
Did some nervous noshing during basketball games.
My exercise was mowing the grass, hauling yard waste, plus some functional lifting of boat batteries. Those batteries get heavier every year.

4/6 174.2 Yesterday marked my 50th day of this challenge. Yay! Was hoping for better results but some of that is my fault. I've really got to do better if I want this weight off by summer. Met all goals yesterday. It's really starting to get beautiful out so I'm enjoying my walks so much. We live near the riverwalk, so I'm going to start walking more out there too. The scenery and wildlife is beautiful and its crazy how much it changes my mood when I'm out there. Hoping for a better round this time. Good luck everyone!
4/7 173.5 There we go- almost at starting weight for last round. Took almost a week to get the weight back off from last weekend. Lots of walking and outdoor activities yesterday. Was so beautiful out. Loving the spring weather here. Hope y'all have a great day!
4/8 174.2 Too much sodium with dinner. Stuck with my goals though. Need to drink plenty of water today.

Just Give Me 10 Days: Round 256- Apr 6-15
SW RND - 215; GW - 155 (Female- Age 56)
Newbie
Logging Trend Weight
Goals:
- Plan food daily and work the plan.
- Fast 12 hours dinner to breakfast.
- Do 30 minutes of dedicated exercise 5 days a week.
4/6 - 215 - Sleep issues and night eating associated with insomnia are my biggest focus. Its pushed me to gain so much weight in the last year. Very hard habit to break.
4/7 - 213.9 - Clearly a drop in water weight but I'll take it. Worked the plan well yesterday through dinner. However, I did eat a protein bar in the wee hours, so I had to restart my 12 hour fasting window over.
4/8- 213.3 -Lifted some weights, lots of steps, eating on point with a lot of veggies and protein, but till struggling with eliminating the night snacking.
