Rnd 266 End Weight 173.8

7/15- 173.8
7/16- 174.2
7/17- 175.0 Absolutely wild!!! I’ve gotten in some serious workout time, gardened all day and eaten what I would call the standard “bland plan” for two days straight. I also did not go off plan over the weekend.
I must be building some serious muscle right now or some serious hormonal bloat!! Definitely still retaining water from the heat. We are supposed to get the rain today (we need it as NY is almost in a drought) hopefully it will break this heat wave.

I’m just going to keep on hammering away. I am on a very slow trend down but it is trending down. I am going to trust that I will break through this plateau, I’m not giving up. I want the 160’s in August!!!

I’m a serial dieter/gainer whose weight has varied by 50 lbs over the years; I’m working to change my relationship with food. I joined this group in 12/23 at 147, lost 22 lbs and reached my goal in 4/24. I’m now working to understand my patterns so I know where my pitfalls are. My goal is to remain within the same 3-4 lb range for good!

R266 - #36

SW ⚖️ 130.4lbs

Mission: Continuously improve daily habits that strengthen a “Healthy, Strong & Fit” identity.
#HSF 📣#bestshapeofmylife📣
#helpfulhabits R266 Let’s Go! 💪🏻🙌🏻⚡️

About Me:
***********
F65, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean P:E (ProteinG> (Cg+Fg) A clean/whole food WOE- (🚫processed foods). Track macros, all fitness and NSVs. HW 172lbs in 2010. Lost 16lbs Aug-Nov 2023. 7/31/24 will be one year in this challenge!

👇🏻July Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of July:

1. P:E: Proteing greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and kcals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan through July. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while 🏋🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️ 🎾. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. 🙏📝 🧐 - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of “leveling up” because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. I’ve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. 🏋🏼‍♀️this is my biggest challenge. I still don’t like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but it’s a daily struggle. Living “fake it till I make it”… Faking my “identity”. My hope is that some 🏋️‍♀️version eventually becomes a healthy habit. I’m working on a minimum of 10-minute “🏋🏼‍♀️snacks” 2-3x per day, 5x per week. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that 🏋🏼‍♀️is the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus “stretch snacks”… I want to up this game… I will start to add “sprints” (which is NOW only fast jogging… 😂) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2” vertical jump) 😂. I read to “sprint” is vital as we age…..
5. I have much “work” to do with family relationships. Won’t detail here, but it’s a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I won’t be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. I’m usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I can’t stay up later…. I love getting up early. I’m good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-being…
7. Have fun… lighten up … & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!

👇🏻Review since my 1st R231 7/31/23 NSVs/Journey Reflections
******************

1. ✅HSF: Avg. close to 9k steps per day for 11+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - #HSF 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅#HSF: 🙆‍♀️ Daily stretch greatly improving my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅ #HSF 📝 🙏 everyday
4. ✅#HSF: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
5. ✅#HSF : Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
6. ✅#HSF : zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 115-130g Protein
8. ✅#HSF Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
9. ✅#HSF 💦80oz daily
10. ✅#HSF Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
11. 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…

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

Rotating 120g 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… !

Sleeping better. Woke up super puffy - no clue. Getting ready to play early 🎾. Looking forward to an active day and lots of 💦.

Let’s all have a dedicated round! #HSF 💪🏻🍀🙏🇺🇸

✅July Level Up! 💯 P = 123g; P:E 1.2:1 🚶‍♀️7K. 🛏️💤5hrs
⚖️🚫 on sleepless nights. Rotten mood usually when I crawl out of bed at 2 AM. Why make it worse? Wanting a positive day with our DGS…. Will peter-out at some point. I’ll fuel my body and drink lots of 💦. Determined.

NSV: yesterday morn I put on a tennis skirt that I had purchased in April that fit well (at the time). Was so loose yesterday I didn’t wear it. In April, I was the same weight I am now…. The ultimate confirmation my body is changing. 💪🏻

7/17 132.0 hmmm…
✅July Level Up! 💯 P = 123g; P:E 1.7:1 🚶‍♀️10.7K 🛏️💤 7 hrs
Yesterday was an almost perfect day. Stretch, 🎾, plyo, sprints, DGS, soccer, sprints again & 🏋️‍♀️ with him! All on 4-5 hrs sleep. Wiped out by 4pm. Today won’t be as much activity - will read, journal, 🙏 reflect. Grateful & present.

Scale? 🔄Fluctuating 2 to 3 lbs during a challenge for a few months now. Sometimes daily. 🤔Was 129 four days ago… (Is 130 g -140g of protein too much? -will drop to 120ish). And no naughtiness in sight!😎 This happens pretty consistently now… Not sure if this is a fluctuation or a muscle gain? A new me? Such intense workouts…. And inconsistent sleep. I’m still on plan with a loose tennis skirt. #HSF

I want to build on the mild success of the last round. I will not be around a scale starting on the 22nd. I will be around foodie friends and eating out for a couple weeks after that, so I want to build my consistency of logging this round. Actually pay attention to what I shove into the old pie hole. Behave as if each bite has consequences. When I travel, I tend to neglect the MFP app. I should at least keep logging food and exercise shouldn’t I?

I used the word “I” quite a bit. Nine times in the previous paragraph. Thank YOU all for giving me a measure of accountability for my actions.

It feels a little funny being the only man in the group (far as I can tell, forgive me if I am wrong) but the group works for me. I hope I am not missing any obvious signal that this is a women’s only group. HA! Message for any outside guys who are taking a look, just try it for one round.

7/16: 218.6
/logged; exercised; 90 oz water/
Last night at about 8 pm half our town lost power, including my house. Gained it back at 5 am. Very little sleep between. When I got up at 2 am to hook up the generator I weighed a full 2 pounds more than what I recorded above. Somehow I lost those pounds by 6 am.

As of this writing I am dog tired…. Quite a bit of town still in black-out. A friend is using my generator now. My Mom’s retirement center is still blacked-out. She is coming over to our house to spend the night with air conditioning.

Lots of whining here. Sorry.

Slept like a log last night. For a change.

Scale reading is on a very rare exact-same-each-day streak. I don’t know how. Yesterday was a little cheaty. Ate a few emotions. Munched on some lackadaisical. In fact it was a bit of a run away train. I did perform a lot of functional movement yesterday which must have helped. Better beware today because I am headed for a jump up.

I am on vacation until 7/21, so this will definitely be a challenge. We have the 4-year old DGD with us too, so that’s going to make this more of a challenge.
7/15 171.2 My food consumption was well within range yesterday, and I got in a good walk before Emberly got up. Drank a LOT of water after spending the afternoon in the heat on the boat, so maybe that explains some of the uptick. Oh well, Today is another day to make good choices and hope they show up on the scale.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/14 …..189.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

07/15 -189.4- (Trend weight 188.6)

07/16 -188.8- (Trend weight 189.0) A very small drop after a very good day. I got in extra steps when I lost my cat outside. I didn’t know she was in my attached garage and when I came home and opened the door she got out. She went into the woods and I followed her in difficult terrain but eventually lost her. She is a tortie so she was well camoflauged. She did eventually come back to the yard after about 90 minutes where she continued to run from me but I finally got her near her catio and managed to get her into it so I could lock her in. Maybe I shouldn’t have given her that extra special treat last night after the ordeal. She didn’t really deserve it but I was so happy she came back home even if she strung me along in the yard for awhile. And why does food always have to be a reward? Hmmm.

07/17 -187.0- (Trend weight 188.8) Finally a nice little whoosh. Today I am traveling with my contractor to pick up 7 windows we ordered for upstairs. I will be pulling a trailer and I’m not used to that so wish me luck! Lunch will be out. This particular town offers a lot that I’m not used to. It will be challenging. I’ll be letting the contractor pick the restaurant so I’ll have to make wise choices and practice self-control.

Ok, here we go, off on a new round. I’m determined to move the needle this round.

7/16 - 197
When I said “move the needle,” I meant the other way. 😊 It’s ok, it’s a delayed reaction from the weekend away.

7/17 - 196.8
We’re finally getting a little break in the heat for a few days—80s instead of 90s—so I’m planning some garden time to try to catch up with the weeds. @quiltingjaine and anyone else who likes flowers, here are some daylilies and anise hyssop for you. 😊

7/17 - 150.9 - First Responder Appreciation Day yesterday. Had catered food for lunch and then we ate out for dinner, I'm surprised the tick up wasn't more. I did stay mindful, though. I found the nutritional information for the catered lunch on their website so I was able to make a guess at portion sizes and log. Dinner was a shot-in-the-dark guess but there were many options for ground beef taco salad that all fell within a similar calorie/macro range so I figured it's a decent guess. I was well over on protein, within goal on fat (9g over, within my buffer), and under carbs by 24 (with the buffer, I was only under by 14) which is really good considering it was all logged AFTER I finished the day. I did hit the gym with SD yesterday and again this morning despite being in the sun and dehydrated yesterday (I had nearly 120oz of water but that isn't enough in the sun in Texas). Back on track today! I forgot I have labs Friday so no workout. I'll probably gently stroll on the treadmill since SD will need a ride to/from the gym. It's my hormonal panel and research says "no strenuous" but a gentle slow stroll shouldn't be hard. Plus, I'll have another 2.5 hours after to calm down before my appointment.

7/15 - I'm bloated, dehydrated, and my BM routine is all messed up. I ended up taking BF to his surgery since it was moved up and then it ended up getting delayed. I was late leaving to get the kids so no chance to stop at the store to stock up on healthy roadtrip treats like I had planned. I didn't have near enough protein, fiber, or water. I'm catching back up today, though, as best as possible. Went to the gym with SD and she's glad to be back after 2 weeks off. I'm glad to get movement in after 2 days in the car and then running errands and playing nursemaid yesterday. BF is doing okay post-op. Finally got him comfortable enough in bed propped up he didn't have to go to the recliner for another night. Glad SD and I could find good enough pillows to make that happen. He has his first physical therapy appointment on Friday so we're getting things moving quickly on recovery. No word yet from Coach today if she'll change macros. I have my meals and snacks today planned around current macros nearly perfectly so I hope she doesn't change them. Glad to be back here for another round!!

7/16 133.5
7/17 133.0 SEVEN YEARS AGO TODAY I arrived on this platform and started keto/LCHF. It’s been so an interesting ride. For the first time since we moved to Las Vegas our power was out for an hour last night. Our daughter insisted that we come to their house for the night because she had a/c and we didn’t. As we packed an overnight bag the power came on. All is well and all of the flashlights have new batteries.😁

7/15 212.0 Working out last night wasn’t easy after taking time off for vacation, but it wasn’t as hard as I expected. This week’s goal is to get back on track with water and logging food. Hoping I can lose at least 1 pound from where I was before vacation.

7/16 210.8 Moving in the right direction. Forced myself to get out and walk in the heat yesterday. Took my water with me and got another 24 oz in during the walk. It was worth it.

7/17 209.0 Almost back down to pre-vacation weight. Increased my walk this week to 2 miles a day. Feeling good right now.

Even though my weight is dropping, I can definitely still feel and see it in my waist! With triple digit weather this past month, trying to get back to my winter routine of multiple mini indoor workouts has been a total fail. I wanna be outside!!!!!! but too tired in the morning and afternoon temps are brutal. PRIME DAY shopping just ordered one of those portable steppers hoping that offsets. Anyone use something similar?

MAY 1st SW: 197.3 | EW: 196.8
MAY Goals: Lose 6-8bs, 2-3 inches and 1-2% body fat ❎❎❎

May 22: I had packed some shorts to change into after swim without trying them on. They were so tight last summer, I expected the fit to be better ~ but when I put them on ... wow. I was in front of the locker room mirrors and was like omg, that's you. How long has it been since you looked/felt like that? I was spinning around looking at myself for a good 2-3 minutes, y'all, lol ~ my New #1NSV

May 4: 10 of the 20 inches lost was off my belly! No pics, no proof, lol ~ I love/hate taking photos because they've become one of my best tools. You can't lie and you can't hide. Putting myself on blast 1) creates incentive to increase effort and 2) highlights new areas to focus on. Still a long way from my ultimate goals, but its nice to see muscle memory is real!

At a size 15, I haven't been this small in more than 10 years.

APRIL 1st SW: 198.2 | EW: 197.8
Goals: Lose 6-8bs, 2-3 inches and 1-2% body fat ❎❎❎
Lost less than a pound, 1.25 inches combined on arms and legs | regained 0.2% body fat and 1/2 inch back on my belly. Starting dietary 200-400 calorie deficit and Intermittent Fasting 18-24 hrs. Breaking fast differently, including more protein, and continuing to look for new ways to increase step count and add more strength in May.

January 1st - April 1st, I've lost 17 pounds and a total of 20.8 inches from 11 areas. 🥳 Thrilled to see my hard work reversing prediabetes and years of physical damage. Getting leaner and stronger and chair dancing proud of myself about it!! 57 and hormonal, it's taken longer than expected and a much rougher road than my youth.

Reaching onederland (March 13th) meant the end of 10+ years and up to 80 pounds!! gained and relost too many times to count. Yo-yoing is the main reason for so much body fat!!! Determined not to continue to self-sabotage ... I need a new target!! If I should lose an additional 8% body fat to reach the "standard" for my age, height and sex ~ and up to 15% more to reach excellent ~ that's @ least another 8-15 months of work before I can begin to relax and think maintenance.
