5/10: Exercise routine has been out the window this week with the drama of my DS. She's out of the hospital and staying with my brother and his wife, so hopefully she's on the mend. Now hopefully a few days drama-free so I can get back to my routine!

Life has thrown me a lot of caloric laden lemons lately. Not done yet making lemonade but hope the major stressor will be resolved soon. Weight has crept up and despite know what works for me, counting calories and tracking I have been resistant. I am hoping over the next 10 days- except when I travel for conference this week - I will reinstate my habits of weighing and tracking my food.

5/6: 123.6-Surprised after playing in a pickleball tournament yesterday, I usually burn so many calories and think I can eat what I want, obviously not true.

5/7: 123.0- Weighed and tracked what I ate, so proud of myself, that habit alone combined with accountability of this challenge has so helped in the past. Played pickleball last night, such a great calorie burner, play again to night, then traveling for work tomorrow and Thursday. That will be a bummer, just as I start working on good habits.

5/8: 122.8 - Up at 4 am- to fly to Florida for a conference- whirlwind of a trip- only ate Starbucks egg bites at airport and the large incredible dinner and wine...impossible to track that day

5/9: ---- Up again early at a hotel, ate the only item on coffee shop menu sounded maybe healthy. Picked up dinner in Charlotte - not bad, salmon on farro, choices slim- ate on plane. Did get home around 5:30, unpacked, picked up house (since left a mess Wed. morning) and played pickleball last night. So glad was out moving my body but my neck muscles hurt.

5/10: 120.8 WOW-Did not see this coming! Dinner Wednesday should have fed me for a week I thought... Feel a little hung over, but did not drink. I wonder if the travel and losing -something- hopefully a little fat but probably water is throwing my body off. Going to try to drink more fluids today.

Just barely made the calorie budget but managed to drop a few ounces. I grilled pork chops for the fam yesterday and I have to say they were a masterpiece. I didn’t just look at them.

5/7: 223.6
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
A little disappointing for as much exercise as I did yesterday. Group fitness class (I was a good student) and lawn mowing. Food was on the salty side and bumping it’s head on breaking above the budget though.

5/8: 223.8
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
Golfing today. I will be using some different from the usual muscles. I will avoid injury by not trying to literally kill the ball. Easier said than done.

5/9: 222.2
/logged; exercised; 66 oz water/
I should have had a bottle of water with me on the golf course. Late lunch after golf was good enough for lunch and supper. The good news is I ordered the coleslaw instead of french fries. The bad news is I ordered a pork tenderloin sandwich. It was one of the good ones; freshly made, not frozen; not pounded out paper thin. Enough with the food fantasy…

Going to try to capitalize today on this minor bump downward.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

RND 259 (edited due to trip change 5/8):
Now that I will no longer be traveling this round, plan is to meet all my goals with daily exercise. I will be going to a race on Saturday now and we'll be away most of the day. I'll probably take a break from tracking that day

5/6 167.5 Starting out the round with a loss. Yayy! Without going into too much detail, I think what has helped me the past several days is I've actually been able to go to the bathroom like normal. The only thing that I have changed is I've been eating watermelon for a snack. A ripe watermelon is my absolute favorite. I think it's helping my body get rid of some stuff it's been holding on to lol.
5/7 166.9 Another good day yesterday. We went out to eat last night and I had a bigger dinner than I've had in a while but kept it pretty healthy.
5/8 166.9 I'm finding that most of the time now I'm not hungry for the dessert I have planned out for the evening. I know I've mentioned this before, but it is nice to not be hungry all the time! Oh and my travel plans for the weekend changed so I'll no longer be going to Kentucky. I was nervous about it because I knew there would be lots of going out to eat. Now Im upset I can't be there for my kids. Thankfully we made arrangements for them to travel with the school/team so they can still compete.

5/9 166.9 Weighed an hr early this morning. We had some pretty bad storms so I didn't get much sleep. My teenagers left for their archery trip. Praying for safe travels.
5//10 167.3 Heavy dinner last night with fried squash and mashed potatoes. Was amazing though lol. Still kept my calories low.

My kids have informed me that they have chipped in on a new Fitbit Charge 6 for my gift. However, there is a delay in delivery so I should have it by next week. I’m excited about having an updated version! Yesterday meals were on point and my exercise increased. I’m still struggling to put down the coffee and drink more actual water.

Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going!

Heaviest Weight Ever: 186.0
186 / 185 / 184 / 183 / 182 / 181 / 180
179 / 178 / 177 / 176 / 175 / 174 / 173 / 172 / 171 / 170 👉 169

Goal: Eat more vegetables and fruit. Drink 80oz water each day. Walk. Start building strength back using light weights.

5/06 - 177.6 - I hope to be 175.X at the end of this round.
5/07 - 178.0
5/08 - 177.6 - Okay, enough with the 177/178 number. I need that reset and motivational scale drop that gets you thru the next days. Maybe tomorrow???

5/09 - 177.0 - So I didn't get out of the 177.x range but happy with this drop. NSV - my pants are a wee bit looser (I've been watching too much Shetland on Britbox

), and my complexion is looking better due to drinking more water and exercising. YAY!
Adding to my post - I forgot, another NSV is I was this close to making an apple nobby cake yesterday as I lied to myself that I would be able to handle it and only eat one piece. Ha! I've lied to myself too many times and maybe, just maybe, I'm finally being able to make myself stop and know it just isn't true. I cannot handle it being in the house - period!! And sugar makes me feel like sh#^ so I'm really glad today that I didn't.

5/10 - 176.8 - Hopefully 177.X is gone for good. I've officially lost 5 pounds since I came back to this forum. Some of it was water weight in the beginning. Onward to my next 5 pounds!

~ piggy-backing off my husband’s Better me app he’s been testing out. 💪💪 I don’t appreciate their trainer’s position on positions.. hmph😤 ! How do they think a beginner workout consists of one-leg-out, full-body push-ups?? How rude! Lol we tried our best but thank goodness we had no one witnessing our grunting and wobbling around that session!!

1. Eat within calorie goals
2. Get a walk in every day
3. Drink water
4. Stay positive
5. Remember, the tortoise wins the race

5/6 205.4 Weight has been up due to a lot of eating out and just poor choices. Too much emotional and stress eating. Traveled to see my mom and then came home to a busy weekend. Oh well, it’s a new day.

5/7 206.2

5/8 206 Still making some bad choices. Today has started out better.

5/9 206 Well at least it stayed the same and didn’t go up. I didn’t drink very much water, low steps and over calorie goal. It’s amazing that I didn’t gain.

5//10 206.2 Yesterday was a lazy day. I stay up too late each night and it finally caught up with me. I did go to bed a little earlier last night but I could still do a bit better.

05/10 - 147.8 - I've managed to come back to the 147.x range after a 2 round detour back upwards. This is fine, my body is learning and adjusting. I've pre-logged to my best ability based on my best guess for dinner which we've tentatively planned going out for. We are hoping the weather holds to allow us to go kayak fishing tomorrow. The guys working the septic ended up hitting the power line to the shop (the survey guy missed it when he came out to mark non-dig areas) so we can't work on the truck as we planned since we can't use any of our tools or have light to work (or AC because it's been very hot and humid lately). It is scheduled to be fixed Monday but we had planned to spend the weekend working on the truck so now we're trying to find cheap/free things to keep us busy. Sunday is supposed to be stormy. I'll be doing my grocery shopping and meal-prepping for the week. I have Sunday planned but need to have a tentative plan for Saturday based on what I already have available to make up a meal with. Weekends are always challenging as BF is spontaneous so we'll plan to make dinner and end up eating out instead. The goal is to be mindful and don't let perfectionism or all-or-nothing thinking stress me out.

Previous Day's Comments

05/06 - I went over my macros the last 2 days. Saturday was due to going out to eat and there being no friendly/balanced options at all (besides skipping the meal altogether). Yesterday was simply me being bored and not thinking about logging until AFTER I ate. Oops. Back on track today due to having routine back. We meal prepped lunch and dinner for the week so I have those logged already, along with my breakfast. I'm a bit short right now for protein and carbs but I have room for one more snack. I'm over 9g on fat already (breakfast, lunch, dinner) but I didn't look at where I was with lunch/dinner prep before making and eating breakfast. Oops! Luckily my Coach has me staying within 10g of goal so as long as I don't have more fat for my snack, I'll be good. I'm sore today still from Friday's workout. Despite that, I increased my hack squat weight. I was a rough workout, but I'm super proud of how hard I was able to push, even through the DOMS. Hopefully I can actually be around this whole round before I have to travel again
05/07 - My macros changed when my Coach reviewed my weekly check-in so I had to adjust my meals a bit to meet those new ones. I was a bit over on fat still but got within the +/-10g buffer of carb and protein goal. I've planned out my meals for today and I'm within the buffer for all 3 macros! I also got in a solid workout (back, bicep, and shoulders - pull) so I'm feeling confident about moving forward with this new setup. Also, walk goal (walk 10 min) has been removed but I'll try to maintain a daily walk with the dogs (or walking pad if weather interrupts), water goal is upped to 100+oz a day, and step goal increased from 8-9k to 9-10k now. We're making things happen!
05/08 - DNP
05/09 - Big bloat drop (from DOMS). Yesterday work hit hard early so I didn't get much of a chance to check in. The dogs cannot go out back due to our septic being fixed so they needed more frequent walks which I prioritized over a check in. Doing well otherwise! I've hit my macros yesterday and my plan (so long as I stick to it, no reason not to!) today will be also within goal. Gym has been good and aiming to get my butt out of bed tomorrow for another workout. Need to catch up on posts which I'll work on between meetings and tasks.

Good start to the round. Yesterday I stayed within calories, hit my macro goals, and didn’t snack. Yay! Having my usual brunch out with a friend but I have a plan in place and will keep my calories, fat, and sugar within bounds while she enjoys her huge combo breakfast. 😊

5/07 - 195.8
Another good day—good me! I had a nice healthy brunch yesterday, and DH made a fabulous chicken stir fry for dinner—lots of lovely veggies! This new start I feel ready (finally) and confident about getting some weight off.

5/08 - 195.6
I stuck to the plan yesterday but for one cookie, but just one, which I nibbled slowly and enjoyed. I couldn’t sleep last night due to congestion and phlegm—>coughing. I finally took an antihistamine around 3 but I was still awake at 4. I did sleep a few hours, got up about 8:30. I see an afternoon nap in my future. 😳

5/09 - 195.8
Rainy day today. DH wants to go out for late lunch to our favorite Italian restaurant, so I’m perusing the menu for the friendliest dish. Probably chicken piccata without the pasta. And, I remind myself, I don’t have to clean my plate!

5/10 - 196.8
Ah, pasta—and I didn’t even eat that much. Always makes me retain water. Tomorrow….

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

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.

We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin
