The people I know that are willing to push a little harder, go a little faster, jump a little higher, lift a little heavier DO lose weight a bit faster, build more muscle and are toner then the people who don’t get out of their comfort zone.”

THIS.⬆️
I’m active. I get in my steps. I play tennis. I look great in my clothes…. But I say/think I want more MUSCLE💪🏻…. But obviously I don’t want it ENOUGH! Right? If I really really really wanted it, I would be doing it, yes?
LIFTING is hard and hard for me to make myself DO IT. I know I would “transform” with 3 to 4x per week. I know it must be done. Yet I’m stuck. This must be dealt with!
And let me be clear, it’s not about my body at this point… It’s about the renewing of my mind. And, being strong to improve my quality of life…. It’s about total healing…. and pushing myself to do the HARD stuff.

TBH surprised @⚖️. Thought I’d be real 130s. Yes, only a pound but it’s about knowing myself. At this juncture, I should be able to nail it with certainty. I didn’t sleep well last night (Woke up at 4 AM this morning) which is probably the reason.
I’ve been hitting 10k+ steps at least 6x per week. Did not yesterday… Worked most of the day and played tennis last night. I have been doing really well with protein… Tonight - girls night out, so planning it out. Gotta figure out this sleep thing… It’s holding me back from my best self…
Today: 🙆♀️🏋️♀️📿🎾.
NSV: Feeling comfortable & positive. Practicing staying in the moment.
4/27. DNW. Busy, busy, busy with life yesterday. Good protein. 🙆♀️🎾🚶♀️10k. BUT, didn’t stop to take care of me for this round. 🚫✅. Today, will journal and reset. Just give me NINE days! 😎
Up at 3am. Simply not going to be healthy with these sleep patterns.
WOE & Health Journey
****************************
WOE since 7/2023: MAD: (Mostly Animal Diet) 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 leaner animal proteins with lower fat than Keto. I thought I was “KETOVORE” but I’ve been told I am “MAD”.
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 in 2015 …. Dairy? Hard cheese, HWC and butter - an occasional high protein Greek yogurt. Vegetables destroy my digestive system… I love vegetables, but when I splurge, I pay for it for several days… I do enjoy berries, lemons, limes. Avocados are my weakness. Enjoy a piece(s) of dark chocolate on occasion. Generally, I eat btw noon and 6 pm. (IF18/6). Alcohol? Used to be somewhat of a weekend 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 9th grade. 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 MANY different diets each decade!
1990 (Age 32) - Avg.130-140 lbs (my son was born 1988)

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!
2020 through 2021, I fluctuated 132-140lbs. 🎢🎢🎢 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.

Day, Comment
4/26 - DNW
DH wanted fish and chips yesterday & we didn't feel like driving downtown to the Irish pub, so we went to Culver’s. I had a burger. I rarely eat beef—it doesn’t agree with me—but it sounded so good, and it was, but I’ve had an upset stomach since last night. My system pretty clearly does not want beef, which is fine with me. Next time I’ll stick with the salad!
4/27 - DNW
I’m not weighing or tracking these days, but I feel very bloated and heavy. Also quite lazy. Spring fever? Possibly. I have some big garden jobs waiting for me when the rain and wind stop and I’m hoping being outdoors more will get me out of my funk. Today is very windy so I’m thinking some indoor clearing might be good for the soul. We really don’t have clutter, but there are things I could recycle and places that could stand a good cleaning. I don’t like doing it, but I like having it done! Enjoy your Sunday!

Round 258

Female, 53, 5”1’
SW: 187.7
RGW: 185.0
FGW: 160
UGW: 130
I’m Kira, working, an empty nester, and married. I have tried many diets and programs over the years, but nothing has worked for long. Now I am working on loving life and trying to be healthier.
You don’t have to be perfect; you just must be better than you were before.
Goals for this round are:
1. Check in every day.
2. Weigh in every day.
3. Drink my water every day.
👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE
4/26 – 187.7 – yesterday was one of those long days where you sit at your desk at deal with issue after issue. I’m hoping that today is better. I did weigh in, I did check-in, but I did not drink my water. Not sure why it is so hard to drink water, especially at my desk. This should be easy.
4/27 – 187.7 – did better yesterday. Had people in for the hockey game last night. Oiler’s won and I didn’t eat any snacks, wasn’t hungry. No change in weight. I again did not drink my water, but I did better. I got about half in. Going to have to track it today. Maybe I will open u an app that I bought a year ago that reminds me to drink.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

SW RND 258 133.5
4/26 134.5 I expected a higher bounce since I ate most of a loaded baked potato. I got grilled shrimp instead of the intended lobster and passed on the warm loaves of bread.
4/27 134.5 We went for BBQ at lunch but I wasn’t hungry so picked at my brisket. Ate my potato skin for dinner - added butter, cheese and sour cream. Quite a treat since I have always loved potato skin. Today is French toast breakfast at the clubhouse. I hope they have eggs and bacon, too.5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
04/25 …..???….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/26 -DNW- I typically don’t weigh on Fridays. Yesterday I stuck to my eating plan. When the snack monster creeped in last night after I already had my snack, I ate some beef jerky. It may have put me slightly over calorie, I’m not sure, but it was definitely better than previous nights. On the mend? Maybe. I’m hoping it was a small step for man and a giant leap for mankind. Anyway, I had Zero exercise as I babysat yesterday after meeting the school bus. I simply ran out of time once the workers left. I’ll try for some movement this morning before they get here since I’m up early for the school bus for DGS. But first, coffee, coffee, coffee.
04/27 DNW Yesterday both started and ended badly. I began an aerobic exercise in the morning and 10 minutes in I got something in my foot. The opposite foot I’m already having such trouble with. I couldn’t apply pressure on it so I had to stop the exercising and begin digging in with a needle. As a diabetic I, of course, tried to be as mindful as possible. Eating was off-kilter all day too. I ended up making dinner for DS, DD, and DGS. Why I chose high sodium Mexican food I don’t know. Maybe because it was quick and easy. This is not the way to turn my ship around. I just felt like I hit brick walls at every turn yesterday. Today I travel to go pick up our eyeglasses. Lunch will be out, dinner will be at home. I will do some shopping while in the city. I will focus on bringing home the healthy foods that help me accomplish all that I need to do.

Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!
Good progress towards the end of round 257. Sometimes I just get in a funk and get tired of all that needs to be done. I don't stop but it's not 100% effort either. Feeling good at the start of this round so here we go!
Within the next 2 rounds - I want to see 213. It's possible in this round but it will be tough but, who knows....
Goals this round:
Goal/Current State
- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget 🍎- Ended round 257 very well
- Macros - hit Protein ✅ - Doing Well
- Water - 64oz minimum > trying hard for 80💧 Hit 80 a few times and rarely below 64oz

I guess it's better here than at the end!🙂 This was a particularly frustrating work week and we were super busy last week so I'm ready for a nice relaxing, do nothing (except my Sat work out) weekend!! 3/4 macros ✅💧🚶🏽

@SModa61: safe travels! The weather looks to be good for you for the next few days!
@judefit1 been a long day. Car would not start (worked fine last night) had to get jumpstart. Then at two hours we stopped for coffee, car would not start again. Got another jump start and drove to auto shop. Got new battery installed. Three and a half more hours before we get to tonight’s hotel. Hopefully tomorrow will be more straightforward.
