Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 263

fmfdfa2020 · June 21

Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going! I love the start of a new round!!

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

Summer Challenge (June 15 thru Sept 22): I'll start with a realistic goal of 14 pounds and go from there.
Start Date: June 16 / Start Weight: 175.0
14 Pounds to Go / 13 Pounds to Go / 12 Pounds to Go / 11 Pounds to Go / 10 Pounds to Go / 9 Pounds to Go / 8 Pounds to Go / 7 Pounds to Go / 6 Pounds to Go / 5 Pounds to Go / 4 Pounds to Go / 3 Pounds to Go / 2 Pounds to Go / 1 Pound to Go

Round 263
June 15 - 176.4 - Yikes, that's 1.6 pounds heavier than my last round weight. Good news is I can play a mind game with myself when the first couple of pounds for my Summer Challenge come off really fast. I blame this on eating too much watermelon last night, and also not sleeping enough. I find that I try to eat my way to having energy when it's just that I'm tired. Sometime, I'll be hungry and just take a short nap and wake up feeling so much better and no longer hungry (again, this only works some of the time

).
June 16 - 175.0 - That's Better. Yesterday's weight was water weight and not sleeping. This will be my starting weight for losing 14 pounds this summer!

June 17- DNW
June 18 - 174.8
June 19- DNW - Too much popcorn last night. Nope, I don't care to see the water weight this morning. I never eat past 7pm but last night for some unknown reason I decided to have popcorn at 9pm. Ugh!
June 20 - 174.8

June 21 - 174.4 - I have a closet full of clothes that I cannot fit into. I've bought very few clothes since I gained weight and the ones I've bought have been in dark colors supposedly to hide my weight. I went from working in a high-rise in Atlanta with hundreds of people to moving to Maine and working from home so I could get away without buying many clothes once I gained weight. In addition, I have lived in sweats because I work from home. I decided last week I had enough "waiting" for that elusive date when I'm "slim" and bought 6 new casual dresses. They arrived yesterday and they are so vibrant and colorful! Obviously my health is number one especially after many, many health issues the past years, but I hope this one step moves me closer to doing other things that I've put off that are good for my mental health. I think my husband also appreciates seeing me out of sweats every now and then. LOL

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
180 / 170s / 160s / 150s / 140s / 130s

@SheilaBoneham: I did not know you're a writer! If you're comfortable sharing, would love to read something you've written?

@Chapter_3: yes, not sure when it occurred to me to start thinking of that morning weigh-in as info rather than judgment, but it's helped me get past my "scale aversion" (mostly

)

Let’s Go! 💪🏻🙌🏻⚡️

R263 Habits:

** new ✅R263- WOE: P:E
Protein g > (Cg + Fg). Try 1.5:1 or better 2:1. Was on Keto/Ketovore/MAD. Moving toward increased protein and less fat.
✅🏋️‍♀️20 min/ day or 30 min 4x per week. RECORD DETAIL.
✅ 🙏📝 🧐60 min 5x /week (Pray, journal, and research)
✅🥩115g -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 15g of net carbs/ day
6. ✅Clean P:E 115-130g Protein (this is new)
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 still 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 3-4x 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.

Rotating 115g to 130g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !

Let’s do R263!!🙌🏻

Woke up @ 1:25am -fell back to sleep around four-ish… Not a great night but looking forward to today. Trying new macros just to experiment. Protein to be greater than combined fat and carbs -will try it for at least two weeks.

Taking time to measure/understand macro ratios (P:E) is challenging/interesting!! Rainy day today- no excuses!! Let’s Go! #HSF.

Active day. Beautiful day. No rain. Fun with DGS - road bikes to the park. 🚴‍♀️🎾🚶‍♀️🏋️‍♀️. 💦!Pedals don’t count as steps?!😎.
Up @ 3:45 but slept straight thru… Today: competitive tennis starts my day and ☀️.

WOE Update: P:E working well. Tummy feels good. No bloating.
For those curious: P:E is …
Protein g > (Cg + Fg) with a ratio range of 1:1 to 2.1. Yes, takes time but tummy discomfort & bloating disappeared. Prioritizing 💦, protein and eating it first at every meal works for me. I am not counting calories, but I know I ate about 1300 yesterday based on recording macros… This is too low. Should’ve gotten 14-1500 based on activity level.
🏋️‍♀️Finally had a decent training session! DH coached me thru and DGS giggles spurred me on. Actually feeling it this morn. 💪🏻

Hobby: Paying close attention to my physical, spiritual & mental health IS my new hobby. I’m enjoying this journey because I’m learning +++ … Feeling more alive than ever… Why did it take me so long?! TIME? Priorities? When I was a single mom (for 20 years-ish), I was envious of all those “in shape” stay-at-home moms… I would often mumble to myself “well, if I had all day”… … Now I DO have all day… (Making myself honest here). It takes time, energy, and discipline …. And reward! Kudos to those moms getting it done.
Onward!

@fmfdfa2020
I 100% relate to your post regarding S, M, L. A bunch of folks on here also relate because I remember a few past rounds where many chimed in to multiple closets & multiple clothes sizes.

When I lived alone after my son moved out, I literally had four full closets of clothes… FOUR. Ranging from extra small to extra large. Holding on to the past and hoping/worried for the future…. I didn’t get rid of all those clothes until my husband and I got married & moved and only had one closet! I was forced! 🤣. But gosh, as I look back those four closets of clothes were a stranglehold… binding me in so many ways… Good on you for getting some dresses that you feel GREAT in now!!! That will boost your mood and momentum. You’re reflecting and making smart decisions. Moving forward. That’s AWESOME!

@Chapter_3 Thanks for your response and after reading it, the next step I'm going to make is giving away most of them. My husband and I have spent the last year cleaning out everything stored away that we have not touched in the past 2 years. It is really amazing how much stress you lose when you lose clutter. The two closets that hold all these clothes has been the one place I've not allowed myself to purge, but no longer. I also have a workshop where I make silver and enameled jewelry and every time we would get rid of a piece of furniture, or containers, anything I thought I might could use, I would find some way to fit it in my workshop, not to mention everything I've collected over the years that I used to make my jewelry but no longer use. I know I'm much more creative when I'm organized and don't have clutter around, so my workshop is next!! Thanks again!

So… I’ve been on mfp more than 10 years now. Sometimes I had used this app regularly for a few months, then I couldn’t stay consistent and gained more weight and came back, it’s a vicious circle. I don’t know how many times I tried and never achieved my goal weight. It is very depressing, but I am still here to try again.

Welcome! and congratulations for NEVER giving up! Losing weight is never easy. It is important to keep trying until you progress and get it right, not perfect. There is no perfection in eating right or losing weight. We all have to find what works for us. Keep up the good work! You can do it!

Thank you very much, it’s very nice of you ❤️ That’s a very empowering and encouraging perspective, thank you ❤️

End-of-2024 Goals—weight 170, walking 5 miles most days.

Day. Weight. Comments.

6/15 - 197.2
DH and I have been watching Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones on Netflix, and of course the commonalities of communities where more people live longer are plant-based, low-junk diets, lots of physical activity in the course of daily life, and a few other things. I’m working on upping my veggies and reducing processed carbs (read pasta), but I think I’m going to have to press harder. At 89 in July, thin DH doesn’t feel any pressing need to change his diet, but at 71 and fat, I know I can’t eat the way he does (he doesn’t eat junk, but is a huge fan of pasta). We can’t always eat different dinners, but my new strategy is to have extra veggies. I’m hoping this series will nudge him to more me-friendly meals. I’ve also been doing so much work in my garden that I haven’t been walking as planned. I need to get back to walking, for many reasons.

6/16 - 197.4
I had a little pig out last night for some reason. I’m trying to get some walking in but it’s turning very hot and I’m prone to “heat sickness.” I’m thinking of going to Menards to walk, since they have ac and miles of aisles. 😊

6/17 - 197.2
The heat has arrived. Other than watering my plants, I’m not spending much daytime outdoors. Maybe I can sneak in a walk this evening.

6/18 - DNW
My schedule got discombobulated with workmen here at 7:40 (they told us “after 8”) so I didn’t weigh this morning. That’s ok. I ate responsibly yesterday and plan to do the same today.

6/19 - 196.6
I did a big thing yesterday…As some of you know, I’m a writer (21 books and hundreds of articles and essays), but I haven’t written much in the past few years due to a combo of factors. I have had a stack of manuscripts in various stages of incompleteness sitting on my desk, taunting me whenever I’m in that room, and calling me names even when I’m not. I will likely never touch those projects again—they’re stale and my interests have shifted. So I tossed the lot in the recycle bin. They’re still on my computer, but I’m considering a deletion binge. When—if—I get back to writing, I need to start fresh. And weirdly, I can’t help feeling that hanging onto old, stale writing projects was linked to hanging onto weight. We’ll see. I can’t tell you how hard it was to make that decision and how liberating once it was done. I feel like something new has opened. Now to find it!

6/20 - 196
That’s encouraging. 😊

6/21 - 196
I’m spending the weekend at a dog show, staying in my friend’s camper trailer, so won’t be checking in. Fortunately, I did the shopping, so unless she adds something, there’s no junk food. It will be fun—I’m not showing, so all I have to do is cheer her on, trying to finish her dog’s championship. See you Monday!

@judefit1 Aww, you’re sweet. Sadly, most of my books are out of print, but used copies are around, and many libraries have or can get them I wrote a mystery series with a 50-some animal photographer/dog sport enthusiast protagonist—four books (Drop Dead on Recall, The Money Bird, Catwalk, Shepherd’s Crook) and also 17 nonfiction books about dogs and cats. I also write literary essays. I hope it’s ok to include a link to this one, “A Question of Corvids,” which won several awards and appears in the 2015 Best American Science and Nature Writing anthology. https://press53.com/issue-61-table-of-contents. You have to scan (or read!) down through the Prime Number volume to find it. Thanks for asking!

New round new opportunities

RND 261 SW 221.6 EW 219.4
RND 262 SW 219.4 EW 214.4
RND 263 SW 215.4 EW TBD

Same goals for this round:
1. Drink at least 90 oz of water a day
2. Close my rings
3. Log my food
4. Goal weight 209

6/15 215.4
6/16 215.6 I’m not happy with this. I know my activity wasn’t as high the last couple of days and I haven’t been drinking water like I should. I’m struggling to believe that small changes like water intake can have such an effect on weight. I’m going to be better about my water and just keep at it. Trying hard not to let the weight gain get me down. I know it’s not a lot, but it feels like when I get excited that I’m doing the right thing to lose weight, the scale goes back up. Time to push past the negative thoughts and keep working. It’s a lifestyle change, which means there will be fluctuations.

6/17 211.4 I know this is 100% water weight, but I’m going to enjoy it for now. I expect the number to fluctuate some more, but if this is the push I need to reach my round goal, I’ll take it.

6/18 214 A little more fluctuation than I’d hoped for, but I ate a lot yesterday and I ate dinner late, so all in all I’m good.

6/19 212.2

6/20 211.6 Happy birthday to me!! Went out yesterday to celebrate my birthday (early) and enjoyed spending time with family. Celebrating a NSV that I enjoyed going out and managed to lose a few more ounces.

6/21 211.8 I’m going to have to kick it up a notch to hit 209 in 3 days. Even if it’s only one day, I’d be happy. Thank you all for the birthday wishes! It was a great day.

6/18-177- I have not been making exercise a priority. The horrible heat and wind should not be present today.
6/19-175-The food consumption wasn’t the best, but I did pick up my orthotics and walked 3.5 miles and drank plenty of water. I feel good.
6/20-174-Switched to green tea-iced and will take that today instead of a coke. Off to help make quilts for the veterans. Lunch is provided and I will not eat the bread….i hope.
6/21-DNW-Should get a walk in today. Some minor yard work.

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

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

6/15 134.0 Upcoming birthday for friend at Golden Corral on Monday doesn’t thrill me especially after anticipated Father’s Day lunch of pizza on Sunday. Just shoot me now! On the plus side - water fitness M, W, F and gym T, Th, F. I’m not doing a lot but anything is better than nothing.
6/16 133.5 Day off from “working out” Even though I’m pleased with myself for getting back to doing activities, I am so mad at myself for letting myself become the ultimate couch potato for the last several years. Once I sat down for COVID closures, I never really got up. I know there are lots of others who did this too. Don’t get me wrong, I have always tended towards being a slug and it was too easy to fall back into that. So I’m depressed about that and losing Oskar has compounded my “depression.”
6/17 133.5 Amazed I didn’t go up. Had pizza for Father’s Day lunch - 3 slices. Later I had 7 shrimp left from the other night. Tonight Golden Corral for friend’s birthday.
6/18 135.0 I had a pity party after “emergency” dentist visit and ate all not LCHF at GC. If I get my act together today it should be gone soon.
6/19 134.5 Eating yesterday was good. Getting a haircut today.
6/20 134.5 Bingo last night, eating last night was good until the Fat Boy ice cream sandwich.
6/21 134.5 Back to water fitness this morning.

06/19 -186.2- (Trend weight185.0)

06/20 -185.2- (Trend weight185.0) A nice little one pound drop today which is likely a lot of fluid. I shed water all night so my quality of sleep suffered but my scale rewarded. I’m still really fighting the night time snack urges no matter how late I have my dinner, how heavy my dinner is and no matter what protein or fiber or healthy fat I add to my evening. It’s not hunger (most of the time), it’s boredom and/or habit. Reading is not helping. TV is not helping. I’m just keeping all healthier snacks in the house and hoping I can keep from overeating them. This is tough. Luckily I’ve been doing this long enough to have no issues with my meals 99% of the time (as long as they are at home). I’m also still struggling with exercise. When I’m hot, I’m hot and when I’m not, I’m not. Right now I’m unmotivated and lazy about it. Perhaps I’ll start slow and work my way back up to some useful and meaningful movement every day. Glad to see my weight going back down in the right direction though. However, I can't help but notice as I look up this post at my entries (June 15) that I gained 4.2 in two days but have only lost 1.8 in three days. But who ever promised that life would always be fair?

06/21 -DNW- (Trend weightDNW) No weigh Friday. Did well yesterday allowing extra calories for my snack fest I’ve been on lately so I fell within all my limits. I’m feeling bloated though due to no TMI. I woke up a little early before the one scheduled reno worker arrived so I could do a 1 mile Leslie Sansone walk on Youtube. I feel pretty good I got back moving again. Perhaps something else tonight. We’ll see. After all, my DGS really wears me out going up & down the steep steps of my house so many times when I babysit! Cooler today. Felt good.
