2023 Round History 2024 Round History Goal Weight

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.

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 110-130g 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 130lbs 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, rotating 110g to 130g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable.

Let’s do R261 !!🙌🏻

5/26 ⚖️131.8lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩130g 🚶‍♀️14k📝 🚫💦.
DGS spent the day & night. I felt yucky all day. Still puffy. I’m going to stick with same plan/ routine as the R260 with #HSF (Healthy Strong Fit) identity/ habits … Definitely will accomplish more as groin is almost 💯 …. Remaining cautious.

Will update my info & round “habits” later today during my 📝 time. Love a fresh new start! 🍀Good luck all!

5/27 ⚖️131.2 lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩130g 🚶‍♀️10k📝 💦. Still feeling physically & mentally out-of-sorts from the over-the-top Friday eve. The brain fog is real. Failed to update #HSF for R261. Will accomplish today.

Today: my DH cycling trip was cancelled due to the tornadoes in NW Arkansas. Such devastation… Will figure out the week with him, food prep, groceries & plan an active day/week. Glad he is home & safe.

5/28⚖️130.0lbs
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩119g 🚶‍♀️8k📝💦. Can only attribute ⚖️to nine hours of sleep and body finally processing Fri night.
🎾today and will finally reflect on round habits.

5/29 130.0lbs.
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩117g 🚶‍♀️10k📝💦. My brain & body finally back all the way to “baseline”. No brain fog. No dragging. Wow, recovery took four entire days. But… slept only 5 hrs last night.

NSV: My body craves routine & that’s what I’m going to her!
Today: 🎾 & 🏋️‍♀️. Will fight the mental tug-o-war!

5/30 ⚖️ 130.5
✅🏋️‍♀️10min 🥩107g 🚶‍♀️8k📝💦.
Exhausted myself from the heat of 2 hrs of 🎾 which wiped me out for the rest of the day... Groin still not 💯but manageable. This round is flying by!

5/31 DNW
Up @ 2AM 🙁😬🙄
✅🏋️‍♀️20min ! 🥩🚫92g
✅🚶‍♀️10k📝💦
Solid day. Gazillion errands. Watched 📺 French Open. Played 🎾 last night. 🏆(1st USTA match since mid-May).
🎾early this morn. HOPING for an extra L O N G 💤 nap. Ready for weekend routine - with gratitude & prayer.

6/1 ⚖️132.0. 🚫🚫🚫
This is top of my range. Yesterday was a do-NOTHING day. No 🎾. 💯 couch potato. Rained ALL day. Zombie. Grouch. A no-good horrible very bad day. No sleep made for the worst experience for me and those around me… Finally took one hour nap around 2pm. Went to bed @ 8:30 and slept well with an ibuprofenPM.

It’s quizzical when I can burn 1000 cal on the tennis court, walk 5mi and 🏋️‍♀️… 4x a week & follow nutrition plan to a T … And my body doesn’t change & the scale drops .5 in 10 days. Then, if I have a do-nothing day, the scale goes up up up in ONE day, bloated & puffy. Simply one of natures inexplicable mysteries…. Ive decided to love how God made me, and just embrace the unknowns before me.

Im looking at changing up my macros a little. May go ⬇️ fat ⬆️ protein. This would be a huge change so I’m doing more research today. (Was really, really missing my veggies yesterday…. ) but can’t go there because of the destruction to my digestive system. And, I was also dreaming of a BIG BIG bowl of rice - Hallucinations from sleep deprivation. I’ll figure it out.

I will walk this morn and 🏋️‍♀️. I’m still not 🏋️‍♀️as much as I planned/need/want. I do love a good, fresh start to a new month! And a new day! Let’s finish 💪🏻 #HSF.

6/2 ⚖️ DNW. (no sleep again)
✅🏋️‍♀️20min 🥩137g 🚶‍♀️9k📝 💦.
And 2 hrs of 🎾. Wonderful day yesterday but didn’t sleep last night. Will it be another do-nothing day from little sleep?!?!!!! Even listening to rain didn’t help. Let’s see…..

6/3⚖️131.3
🚫🏋️‍♀️ 🥩98g ✅🚶‍♀️10k📝 💦.
I tried to be as positive as I could - lack of sleep is hard. I was able to take a one hour nap, but I was primarily inactive for the day, except for three short walks. I could at least drink lots of water, and so I did that! Last night I slept better but still up @3:30.

NSV: A year ago I never would’ve gotten out of the house at all… It rained most of the day, so I timed it…. I actually forced myself to get up and go for a walk and hit 10k. I give myself an A+ for WILL power yesterday to register 10k.

Today will get better! I’m determined.
