So I ended the last round with a nice little drop, which gives me a challenge to better it in this round. I am surprised this morning was not higher due to my mini binge last night on totally inappropriate snacks.
Today’s challenge? Rotary meeting lunch is lasagna and bread sticks. Sheesh. If I am smart, I will just have a big plate of salad.

5/17: 222.2
/logged; exercised; not enough “drank”/
There is a reason. Yes, I ate the lasagna for lunch, but not a big portion. Yes, I went to Culver’s for supper and had a Tenderloin Basket. DGS 7th birthday celebration yesterday. DS made a cake “from scratch” for the birthday.

Overall calories were maxed out, not over. But worse was the salt. And, I got up at 3:30. Couldn’t sleep……

I am smoking a pork shoulder or two this weekend. We have 16 people coming over for dinner on Sunday evening. All I can say is the weather better be good so we can expand to the outdoors. Thinking about smoking some mac’n’cheese too. I have never done that at home, but have had it at a restaurant.

5/18: 220.2
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
I need to bring water more to the top of my mind. Today we get picky about the house and yard in preparation for our dinner party tomorrow.

5/20: DNW
/Nope; Yes; ?/
Big day yesterday so I didn’t pay attention to logging. Got plenty of exercise.

DW hid the bathroom scale from our guests so I couldn’t do my normal routine this morning. She is still sleeping as I write, so… just as well. I think I would be weighing everything I ate in the last 24 hours. Too much Information I know.

Off to the eye Dr. this morning. Yesterday I experienced a sudden “floater.” Still with me this morning. Kinda big, so I am having it looked at.

5/15: 219.8
SW on day before this round.

5/19: 219.4

5/21: 218.6
/logged; exercised; 78 oz water/
I will gladly take this fluke reading.

Well, the “floater” in my eye is just that. A floater. Too much detail to go into here, but when they took a look inside, they thought it best to see a retinal specialist. There was no sense of alarm, just concern. Meanwhile, I need to learn to live with my new companion, the floater. Perhaps I should give him a name. No way to eliminate him. We need to learn how to get along. I think they can break them up with a laser, but they are not eliminated.

I think I will name him Nemo.

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.

ROUND 260-my 30th
SW ⚖️130.2lbs

Ten day journey to continue solidifying a new identity!💃

F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean MAD 🥩. Zero processed foods. Track macros, kcals, all exercise and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010.

Mission: Continuous improvement of daily habits that strengthen a “Healthy, Strong & Fit” identity.

Consciously shifting from “goals” to “habits” that support a new identity - to release the deep-rooted beliefs held since childhood.

📣#bestshapeofmylife📣

Let’s Go! 💪🏻🙌🏻⚡️

R260 Habits:
✅🏋️‍♀️20 min/ day or 30 min 4x per week. RECORD DETAIL.
✅ 🙏📝 🧐60 min 5x /week (Pray, journal, and research)
✅🥩110g -120g of protein

NSVs/Journey Reflections…. 👇🏻
********************************
👇🏻Review since my first R231

1. ✅Avg. close to 10k steps per day for 8+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅Healthy Habit: 🙆‍♀️ I stretch daily and that has greatly improved my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅HH: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
4. ✅HH: Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
5. ✅HH: zero to 10g of net carbs/ day
6. ✅🥩MAD 110-120g Protein (Mostly Animal Diet-CLEAN)
7. ✅HH Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM.
8. ✅💦80oz daily
9. ✅Alcohol limited to rare occasions.

Tremendous progress since last July, but still “skinny-fat”. I want 🏋️‍♀️to become a healthy habit too. … 🏋️‍♀️20 min per day or 30 min 4x per week. I need to continue to journal📝 and to strive to ID unhelpful habits & replace with helpful ones.

Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.

In my dreams, I want to be 130 lbs with a HARD body… 😎 But let’s face it, this could be unattainable and/or unsustainable, but I’ll give it my best … It’s a 🥕! I don’t know how long it will take. Also, consuming 110g to 120g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable.

Let’s do R260 !!🙌🏻

Slept like a rock last night. 😀Groin is better but still not 💯. I’m hoping it to be well enough for 🎾tomorrow. I was able to walk five miles yesterday. A little 🏋️‍♀️. Read several hrs yesterday. Again, I recommend Atomic Habits (Clear), the Habit Mechanic (Finn) and a new release “Good Energy” by Casey Means, MD.

Cant believe 30, THIRTY rounds! I can honestly say that I’m energized again… And looking forward to digging in this round! I can also say this is the first time in my life, my entire life, feeling safe and secure on this health journey. I know in my soul this is who I am. I’m no longer the gal that has struggled with her 🎢 weight and choices her entire life…. I am a new person DAILY prioritizing health and fitness. Wow! Kinda hesitant to write that down…. But…. ONWARD! Ok ok ok, gotta see it, B E L I E VE it and work it! Let’s go! 💪🏻🏋️‍♀️🙌🏻

Pulling for all of you! Will continue enjoying coffee ☕️ with you each morning!

Good day. Interesting fact read in “Good Energy”: brisk walk 10x per day /6 min is = MORE benefits than one, one hr walk. Same for🏋️‍♀️. Called “snacking”. Will try today!

🚫🏋️‍♀️ (only 5 min)
🚫🥩 100g
Haven’t seen 129ish since late 2023. I think it’s from inactivity & an incredible night’s sleep. Instead of one long walk, I walked four times yesterday to reach 5 miles. I enjoyed it.

🏋️‍♀️”snacking” didn’t work because of an emotional interruption… 🤬🥲 I’m determined for today to be positive. I will stay in the present moment and listen to Norman!
(DH is gone for the weekend with a handful of his high school buddies… They do this once a year… He always has a wonderful time!) Major thunderstorms today. Planning on challenging resistance band sessions & 🏋️‍♀️ throughout the day & steak tonight! [Oh, my groin is a little better, but it is still limiting my movement a great deal - can tell it’s getting better each day. ] This is the longest I’ve gone without playing tennis in at least 10 years… Hoping to LIVE and enjoy a really good day today. Come ON! 💪🏻

5/19 ⚖️129.7 lbs.

✅🥩110g

Good things to share:
1. Yesterday I started off gung-ho and then I got caught spending too much time surfing Amazon/piddling but I was able to get in two 10-minute 🏋️‍♀️ “snacks” and a 4.5 mi walk. How? I just let the day pass by and finally after my 4 o’clock steak, I asked myself who the heck am I? And I literally responded to myself… “Fit, healthy & strong”. What would a “healthy, fit & strong” person with a groin injury do right now? … A long brisk walk! I literally embraced this new identity… It was a wild feeling! Akin to WWJD? What would HFSD?! My new inner-voice of encouragement. It was such a mind game… Going back-and-forth between slouch or HFS? While walking, I just gave myself so many affirmations. It was empowering & uplifting.
2. “White Noise” App. A friend of mine recommended this app weeks ago, and I’ve been putting it off. Several nights ago I started listening to “Rain”. For the last three nights, I have slept like a baby… Nature Sounds. There are a gazillion apps similar to this… This one’s very basic and I’ve hit a jackpot.
Unfortunately, my groin is still bothering me so I ordered a compression strap to see if it would help and I’ve started icing it several times a day… some relief. I have a tennis match scheduled for Tuesday and I’m concerned I’ll have to cancel it…
Have a disciplined day!

I’m sore this morning from weeding yesterday, but I’m headed out for more. The fun never stops!

Oops. Snacked last night. Will try to do better today. 😁

5/18 - 197.4
Double oops. Didn’t do better yesterday, obviously. I’ll try today.

5/19 - 197
A couple of hours weeding and transplanting in the hot sun yesterday actually reduced my appetite. Maybe I can lose my winter fat now! I thought I’d share a pic of my happy clematis. It’s beginning to look a lot like summer!

5/20 - 196.6
Wow, we jumped straight from chilly rainy to hot and humid. Flowers are happy, weeds are happier! Happy Monday, all!

That’s lunch out yesterday. Oh well. Healthy menu planned today, plus at least a couple of hours of garden work.

Sun 5/19🟢165.7; -.7lbs
~ The poker game was successful and the food wasn’t tempting in the slightest .. and there was a good salad option. I drank 6 or 7 Mich-Ultras last night. I logged ahead and overestimated (just in case) I also stayed on my treadmill instead of my couch, while I binge watched a tv show. (Roughly 3 hours)

~ I tossed and turned, trying to go to sleep last night.. considered a snack but ultimately decided not to sabotage my weigh in this morning. So proud of me! ☺️

05/20 -188.2- (Trend weight186.5) I enjoyed the outing yesterday. It was a beautiful, hot, sunny day. I spent some time thinking about where I am going wrong these past two months and I have some ideas and unfortunate changes to make, at least while I’m going through my funk. It starts today. Feeling pretty frumpy. Goodbye Frump!

05/21 -188.2- (Trend weight186.7) I made ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE food choices yesterday thanks to some food my workers brought in to share. I really should have used my “no thank you” manners! I was under calorie for the day but the carbs were through the roof. I ended up going without a proper dinner last night just to make up for it. Luckily it did not put me into a sugar drop binge or a hungry without my dinner binge. I really need to see a drop tomorrow on the scale so I will be pre-logging my food today to help me stay focused.

05/21 - 147.8 - Bumped back down despite feeling oh so full yesterday. This is good. My Coach adjusted my macros so I'm reducing carbs and fats (and subsequently calories) a bit more to get into a good cut based on my feedback (that I'm noticing my muscle growth now that I'm getting enough protein, yippee!). I'd love to lose a bit more of the fat layer so my muscles shine through a bit more (get that toned look) before the beach but that's in a bit less than a month and I don't know if I can safely and reasonably lose that much fat around my tummy, hips, and legs in that time. At least there's hope for my birthday when we take an island trip. I can look good then if nothing else!

Previous Day's Comments

05/16 - I'm guessing a TOM-related blip. I felt really bloated this morning although I got rid of many of the other (more annoying/painful) pre-TOM symptoms so I won't complain at all! Hopefully I'm now on the recovery side of things and I can resume normalcy in the next day or two. Arm workout this morning. Lower weight with higher reps due to already having done a smaller bit of biceps on Tuesday and triceps yesterday. More to push lactic acid and get some muscular endurance. I'm not sure if I'm going to go tomorrow- BF was talking about knocking out squats but then trying to get in on the hydro-massage to help with his shoulder (he had injections due to partial tears he's trying to heal from. Surgeon said to keep working out within reason). Since his alarm wakes me up anyway, I may go and, if I'm not feeling up to it, I can walk on the treadmill or pedal on the bike until he's done. The hydro-massage isn't a guarantee so it could be a short visit anyway. Last day of fully prepped meals. I have one more lunch for tomorrow but dinner will be improvised. I pre-planned for fish but we shall see what BF is feeling so I can log that and lunch to figure out snacks to meet macros!

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

5/16 222.6
5/17 222.4
5/18 223.4 late night meal wasn’t such a good idea

5/19 223.6 it’s not a loss but I’m okay with this. Lower activity yesterday and I realized yesterday that I need to up my water intake. I’m only drinking half what I thought was. I have a new goal for the next round.

5/20 223.4 graduation festivities are over. Hoping to get on track for some solid weight loss the rest of the month.

5/21 221.6 yesterday was a good day. Hoping to replicate today.

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: Calorie Cycle for a weekly average between 1200 - 1500. Eat more vegetables and fruit. Drink 80oz water each day. Walk. Start building strength back using light weights.

5/16 - 176.6 - I'm going back to exercising in the mornings the way I did before I retired. I'm more likely to exercise instead of deciding I'm too tired at the end of the day, and it makes me want to stay on a healthy track with my food therest of the day. And if I'm just full of energy

, I can always do another form of exercise in the evening.
5/17 - 176.4 - I got (3) 1 pound bags of pecans I ordered from a farm down in Georgia today. I'm allergic to peanuts and they guarantee no cross contamination. I'm freezing 2 pounds. My plan is to just eat in my oatmeal, and not eat a handful every time I go in the kitchen. They are already shelled, so really easy to grab some and end up eating 900 calories in a couple of hours. I don't want my bingeing problem to keep me from having healthy food (if eaten in moderation) in the house. Wish me luck!
5/18 - 176.4
5/19 - DNW - Well, no surprise, I did not eat the pecans I bought in just my oatmeal as planned. I was working in my workshop (silver jewelry, enamel, lampwork), and every single time I came in the house I ate some and added salt. The remains of the first 1lb bag are now in the freezer with the other unopen bags. My husband does not like pecans so I can't count on him to eat them. He's always been my garbage disposal for things that I buy impulsively. However, two years ago he changed his diet due to high blood pressure and stomach issues. After he went off all gluten and sugar, his blood pressure dropped from 150s to the 120s, and his stomach issues are gone. He's naturally thin but he looks so much healthier. I'm thankful for his improved health and healthy way of living. Neither of us eat processed foods, EXCEPT me during the sporatic binges I go on, which can pack the pounds on. I just can't have the trigger foods in the house. Back on plan today, and lots and lots of water!!

5/18 - 176.4
5/19 - DNW
5/20 - DNW
5/21 - 179.6 - Well, that was quite the jump. Most of it will hopefully come off over the next days, but some of it was me slowly starting to increase my food consumption and reduce how much I'm moving. New day, new chance to focus!

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

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

Rnd 259 End Weight 179.4

5/16 179.8

5/20 178.6
5/21 178.6 Staying too busy to eat! We’re having a bit of a heat wave and I haven’t done the full seasonal clothing swap. My closet (spare bedroom) is a disaster.
I did enjoy trying on some clothes that did not fit last summer. I’m not all the way there but getting dressed this summer shouldn’t be the depressing struggle it felt like last year.

@Skyleen75 This is fabulous: "I did enjoy trying on some clothes that did not fit last summer. I’m not all the way there but getting dressed this summer shouldn’t be the depressing struggle it felt like last year."

Very very nice NSV!! This hit home for me because just this morning I was moving my winter clothes out and warmer weather ones in and had a talk with myself. It was not a good talk. I did NOT ever fit in 90% of my winters clothes this past season and will not fit in my summer clothes. I promised myself that when I swap back over next fall, I will be able to hopefully fit in more than I do now. Also, I have to remember each pound I lose from now until then, I'll see improvement, as you did - it's not like I'm stuck in a time warp and won't see any improvement until that magical day. You have INSPIRED me!! Congratulation on your progress so far and thanks for posting!!

Aww @musicsax, your littles hugging and holding hands is so sweet

@_JeffreyD_ floaters are so annoying. I've had them for 20+ years. When mine first appeared, I thought it was a gnat flying in my face😂
