Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 262

musicsax · June 9

🎷 66 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 262 (my 192nd). So grateful @Quiltingjaine for another round.
Goals for this round; to lose! I need to be consistent and lose something; to get back into the 130s, should be able to break that 140 barrier now! Strive to have a feeding frenzy free round😊. Good luck everyone for success.

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.

Thank you all for the garden love. It does feel nice to share my little gorilla gardening projects anonymously on the internet. I think everyone likes a pat on the back, job well done.
I am looking a bit inwards to try and understand why I want to apologize if it sounded like I was doing a humble brag, “look at what a good person I am”
I don’t need to apologize, lol I am a good person (mostly) and it took a lot of bad choices to get here.

Getting under 175 is my next “leveling down” super Mario brothers theme music moment.

R262 Habits:
✅🏋️‍♀️20 min/ day or 30 min 4x per week. RECORD DETAIL.
✅ 🙏📝 🧐60 min 5x /week (Pray, journal, and research)
✅🥩110g -130g of protein
✅🛏️💤 tracking sleep

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. ✅Clean Ketovore 110-130g Protein
7. ✅HH Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM.
8. ✅💦80oz daily
9. ✅Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
10. 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is inconsistent the last few rounds…

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. 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 R262 !!🙌🏻

Todays ⚖️/ Yesterday’s #HSF & Reflections

SW RND 262 ⚖️129lbs
6/5 ⚖️129.0
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩133g 🚶‍♀️13k📝 🛏️💤💦. ALL!
Not sure I like a whoosh at the beginning of a round… But I’ll take it. There’s just something about being under 130 that brightens ☀️the world around me. I sincerely believe the scale reflects a full DEEP eight hours sleep last night. My variation ⬆️⬇️ last few rounds was definitely due to lack of sleep - NOT food or activity level…

Does anyone know the science behind this phenomenon of SLEEP? What happens in your body?

Yesterday was 🥵HOT with the highest humidity so far this summer… and I walked 5 mi in it… Don’t think I’ll be doing that again - was 💯 wiped out the rest of the day. Visited with DGS and took a nap. Successful with 🏋️‍♀️!

Spent at least two hours studying macros and have decided to stay pretty much where I am - increasing proteins a little with moderate fat. Staying whole food with ultra low-carb because I simply feel better …

🍀Good luck 🍀 to everyone this round!

6/6 ⚖️129.0 - this stuck?
✅🏋️‍♀️15min 🥩125g 🚶‍♀️9.5k📝 🛏️💤💦 & 🎾… ALL!
Slept 8 hrs. 😲Feels so good I have to pinch myself! (I’ve started taking magnesium, which I think is helping with sleep). Also accomplished, all of my activity goals… A winning day!
Today will be same. My body really loves routine… Will give it to her again today.

NSV-Went to watch my 🎾team play a league match last night on a sweltering summer eve… Contemplated enjoying a beer, but then I thought, let’s see if u enjoy the eve with some ice cold water vs a beer? I did! I had a wonderful evening, enjoying a tasty water w /LMNT (electrolyte drink) 🙌🏻. I learned that I don’t have to go with my first impulse and can negotiate a better option… I still do this “thoughtful negotiation” quite often, and maybe it will be with me for a lifetime… but… I’m willing to persist/embrace this new norm. #HSF

6/7 ⚖️129.0
✅🥩137g 🚶‍♀️10k📝 🛏️💤💦.
🚫🏋️‍♀️
129lbs again… Three days in a row. 7 hrs sleep! My body fat percentage has slightly improved… I skipped 🏋️‍♀️ yesterday - rest. Wonderful walk. Keeping protein up. Prayer, reading, and reflection yesterday.

I am experiencing more and more, the triad of healthy mind, body and spirit. I honestly can’t ever remember this active, real congruence in my life. There was always at least one component off-kilter. Feeling blessed beyond measure.

Our “tough love” situation is slowly improving. Don’t want to get our hopes up, but I am allowing myself to be gently optimistic. There was a small situation yesterday that we could’ve caved, but I had time to think about it & remained steadfast.

NSV: Keeping my #HSF “routine” through emotional upheavals & stress the past several months, is a win that I simply cannot adequately describe… This group /challenge played a significant supportive role. Thank you! I must acknowledge that I am learning & processing real helpful habits. But I am also aware that I’m just a few decisions away from “lapse”.

I think the most important lesson that I have learned is to force myself to slow down, stay in the present, and truly process information before reacting. My impulsivity is diminishing. To go from “reaction” to choosing an action. It started with food choices, and now I’m experiencing positive results in other areas of my life. Staying in the present moment & mindfulness is hard work. Time is an underrated commodity.

Only 10 minutes of 🏋️‍♀️yesterday. I’ve been doing 🏋️‍♀️“snacks” in 10 minute snippets… Consistent in the morning, but not so much in the afternoon. I’ll definitely get it all done today.

DGS Birthday celebration is today. I’m looking forward to seeing his delight!

DH is cycling in N. Alabama. Making up for his cancelled trip to Arkansas. Eating for one is super easy!

I hope everyone has a great weekend! #HSF 💪🏻

6/9 ⚖️130.2
✅🏋️‍♀️25min 🥩89g 🚶‍♀️5k 🛏️💤 - 6hrs
Started out strong 🏋️‍♀️yesterday, but ended up, not as active. I didn’t eat badly yesterday it just wasn’t routine… I ate less protein, a minuscule piece of cookie cake & dinner later than usual. My body craves routine ( ⚖️) , and yesterday wasn’t having it.

NSV: I challenged myself to a trip down the waterslide 🎢 and it was a blast! I was nervous, but said what the heck… I had so much fun at DGS birthday party.
Today: Tennis and hubby gets home late!

I want to learn to love a “drop on the scale” more than I love a “snack on the tongue.” Very hard for me to practice delayed gratification when it comes to food. I do better in other areas of my life.

DGS (age 7) was with us a bit yesterday. He is letting DW give him some piano lessons, for now. And, we played a game of chess. He is about my speed. But I obliterated him. HA! Actually he shows a lot of patience along with his frustration.

6/7: 219.2
/logged; didn’t really exercise; 66 oz water./
I didn’t really exercise, but I was on-the-go all day.

I attended the second of four funerals in this two week period… first two were for good friends (unrelated) who died way too early and quickly from pancreatic cancer. Both are “in a better place now” as we like to say. They showed us both how to live and how to die. Inspiring. Third funeral today.

Speaking of food focused social events, tonight is our monthly get together with fellow former employees of an architectural firm. First Friday of the month. I call it an alumni association. We take turns picking the place and this month is my turn. Good opportunity to make a good choice (maybe no fries? Skimp on the bread? Drink mostly water? Enjoy conversation more than food?) I will be happy to hit on at least two of these.

6/8: 222.2
/No, yes, 66 oz water/
Todays gain is everything I ate yesterday plus the retained water due to salt fest. It is still in there. I did meet a couple goals last night, but the funeral meal at noon was the game changer.

Thanks to all for hugs.

Did some fishing with DS and DGS yesterday. DGS wanted to give our fishing team a name. That was so cute! We settled on Epic 3G Fishing Team. 3G stands for 3 generations. DGS major contribution was investigation of our fishing site for bones and abandoned fishing tackle. Ha!

Went to a local festival last night and enjoyed an Eagles tribute band. It was good. So was the strawberry shortcake.

@quiltingjaine, YES. Give me a good shake or something. The weird thing is that I don't crave bread. If I'm craving something, it's usually salty or sweet and always crunchy. Crackers makes sense, not bread. I think I've evolved into a new habit that I need to break.

Phooey.

6/06 - 197.6
I’ve decided to follow the Mayo Clinic diet, starting yesterday. It is science based with an emphasis on fresh veggies, whole grains, healthy fats, not much meat, and exercise, which is essentially what worked for me when I lost 40# in 2015-16. It’s also an approach that won’t cause havoc with the chef, aka DH. 😊 I finally, finally, finally feel motivated.

6/07 - 197
So far, so good. I wanted to snack last night, but nibbled 1/3 cup of blueberries and that satisfied the urge.

6/08 - 197
Stayed on track yesterday calorie wise, but we ordered out for late lunch/early dinner. DH wanted pasta, so I got just meatballs, no sauce. Lots of sodium, I think. Anyway, I’m sticking to the plan, so all good.

6/09 - 197.6
Man, this is frustrating. My calories the past 4 days have been 1173, 1224, 1179, 1283, and I’ve been walking and gardening, and after thinking I was headed down, boom, I obviously am not. I know I shouldn’t dwell on day to day ups & downs, but it is frustrating. Maybe I should weigh once a week or once a round so I don’t get slapped in the face by my scale so often. Ugh.

~ We were in walking distance of local bars and food. My plan was to consciously walk a lot and I did do that, but not because I got up and walked the beach as I planned but because we HAD to walk to do anything and avoid beach traffic. Last round I wrote that I was nervous I wouldn’t come back here but I definitely did. **small win for me**

Tish, I do sometimes crave bread - GOOD garlic bread or a slice fresh from the oven but you’re right. Crunchy salty is actually what I crave more often. Five crackers with “just out of the fridge” butter have been my solution. Haven’t had those in a while.

@jspecies11 What is the TWJ challenge? I have been meaning to ask since you first put it on the “calendar”

Day/Weight/Comment
06/04 …..182.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

06/05 -181.2- (Trend weight 184.5)

06/06 -181.4- (Trend weight 184.2)

06/07 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)

06/08 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW) I rushed out the door early today without thought to weighing or posting. I suppose it doesn’t matter much since I had linner out and feel so bloated right now that I probably won’t be weighing in tomorrow anyway. Sodium galore and more carbs than usual probably filled my liver glycogen up galore. I got right into my night gown this evening as soon as I got home as my button & zip capris were feeling tight. Tomorrow will be an extremely lean food day. Probably OMAD.

06/09 -DNW- (Trend weightDNW) Several trips disrupting my weekend/week. Travel always wreaks havoc on the scale. Next trip is very early Tuesday morning to the Cardiologist for a follow-up due to some symptoms. I don’t think my scale will level off until at least Thursday. I’m not sure when I will want to weigh between now and then, however, every day I am home and not out-of-town or traveling I will be mindful of both food and exercise, God willing.

06/10 -xxxxx- (Trend weightxxxxx)

06/11 -xxxxx- (Trend weightxxxxx)

06/12 -xxxxx- (Trend weightxxxxx)

06/13 -xxxxx- (Trend weightxxxxx)

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