Just Give Me 10 Days - Round 296
Replies

Hello MFP friends.
I didn't have a chance to browse any postings last round. This round I'll be more supportive of everyone. I appreciate everyone's dedication to all of our success.
My neighbors and I are still beaten down by hurricane Helene stress. However, there is never a good reason to live unhealthy.
I know that even a fast food menu can be altered for my needs. I've been doing it for over 15 years. A bacon burger no bun has more nutrition than oreos and onion potato chips. Often costs less too.
Now I'm just rambling...
Wishing all of you Rousing SUCCESS for this round.
I'm sure you all did better than I did last round. Success takes dedication which I've lacked recently. I must improve.
Goals:
Get off the excess salt and all sugar so I can drop this water weight
Exercise burn 500 calories daily
Full abs and flexibility daily
Body fat calculation weekly
Yes I Can! Yes I Will!
SW Rnd 296 - 157.8 lbs
5/11 - 158.4
Not off to a great start. I know what's needed. Now how do I get myself "unstuck"?
5/12 - 156.4 lbs
Big sigh, weighing in at my heaviest time of day is hurting my feelings. Nonetheless, it's necessary to remind myself how far off I am from my best weight.
5/13 - 157.4 lbs
The 1lb up is surprising but such is life. Finding my way back on track.

Day/Weight/Comment
ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 193.6
05/11-194.6 ❌ - (Trend Weight: 195.0)
05/12 – 194.6 💠 (Trend Weight – 195.0) I honestly thought it would be lower instead of the same because yesterday was such a good compliant day. However, with daughter and DGS here I probably didn’t get as much movement in. Also, all the weekend celebrations may still be catching up so I’ll take it! The plus side to it all is that I have Medicare insurance now, but it is Expensive!
🌺🌺🌺🌺05/13-194.2 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 194.9) A great day yesterday except for that poor snack choice last night that we won’t talk about. Under calories but over on carbs. Lots of movement outside working on the storm cleanup. Burning lots of brush, limbs and leaves. Most of the raking just in the bonfire area but tried to maximize it. Hair appointment today for a cut for myself and my son. Probably lunch afterwards as he expects it. With the autism he is still pretty childlike in many instances. He gets to pick the restaurant. I’ll try to choose smart but he’ll probably want the pizza parlor. Ugh….

5/11-DNW5/12- DNW -5/13- 167.1 - I'm pleasantly surprised by this. I was nervous to step on the scale but with being out for several days this weekend into next week, I need to get a decent weight trend leading up to it. Feeling good. Food logged through today and then repeating Monday/Tuesday for Wednesday Thursday so I'll be good food-wise for the week. Dinner will be at home Friday since the boys are coming over since we leave ~3am Saturday morning. I'll aim to stay as mindful as possible during this trip but understanding that travel makes things challenging, especially since I won't be in charge of food entirely and at the whim of whatever the restaurants we go to serve.6 -
I ended the last round where I started it, but did manage to touch base with a 134.9 ever so briefly! This round I would like to become more familiar with the 134’s😉! I just booked a trip to Kauai last night for September, so now I have a goal to keep my eye on🌴🌴🌴

Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 296
May 11 - 20, 2025
SW: 131.0
5/11 – 130.2 Definitely a mother’s day gift to me. I did do good things though yesterday, but also not so good. I did use the home gym yesterday, and planned and tracked all my “regular food”. Then I botched the brownies I was assigned to make and bring today to my sister-in-laws. Well, three guesses what happens to overcooked brownies. Yup, I think you figured it out. Any, so as to risk not messing up another tray, I drove to the store (would have needed more ingredients anyhow) and bought two perfect tubs of brownie bites.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL!!!
5/12 – DNW
5/13 – 130.8 OK, night after night, I am doing things I logically do not want to do. This must stop. Today (already past 5 PM) I am on point (but was this time yesterday and the day before), and I went to the gym and did a nice workout. Let’s see what I have to report tomorrow.

@AR10at50 Happy Birthday! Sorry I am late!
@_JeffreyD_ You need to learn to hold the fish the right way! Hubby has perfected it. You get a friend to take the picture and you extend your arms (holding the fish) so they are as close to the camera as possible, with your body as far back as possible. Hubby gets teased for his method even when the fish is a large size, as he makes it even bigger looking.

67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 296 (my 226th). So grateful as always @Quiltingjaine.
Goals for every round;
First and foremost, no feeding frenzies – I am not a shark or even a piranha!
to weigh less at the end of the round than the start
be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end
I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.
Spoiler Warning
I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life.
"Health is wealth
",5/10 140 – well that’s a surprise!! I did get on the scales twice to confirm! But I am pleased. That’s a loss of 1.8 pounds, but I look back at photos of a few years ago & I do need to get back down to mid 135’s. On a side note, I still haven’t got my ‘phone back it seems that the police have lost it too, there is no record of where it is or who made the ‘phone call, I’m beginning to think it was an impostor trying to get my address, or am I being little too suspicious? Still awaiting the sim for my new ‘phone. See you all in the new round.
EW Rnd 295 141.4
SW Rnd 296 140.4
5/11 140.4 – 11.11 miles walked. New SIM arrived, able to sort out all the things I couldn’t without it !!
5/12 140.4 - 7.61 miles walked. Siblings lunch out & I chose lowest calorie on menu.
5/13 141 – 6.76 miles walked yesterday.
5/14 141 - 7.94 miles walked.

5/14 130.2 nutrition 💪🏻. ⚖️ ??? large drop perhaps because I did not eat after 4:30? I would love for it to stick but I doubt it will. I usually ignore inexplicable upticks, so I’ll ignore an inexplicable downtick. My body systems fluctuate dramatically, remembering it’s not only CICO but what and when. Macros matter. Clean matters. I’ve been “clean“ for a good stretch now and that could be a factor. Will focus on:🏋️♂️⏱️today. #HSF
5/13 131.2 Seems my weight is stabilizing because of whole food (WOE). Good nutrition and movement but no plyo. Up too early but weighed anyway. Slept solid 8:30P to 2:30A. Up now and contemplating life.
I got the inspection date wrong. It wasn’t last week. The inspection is taking place today at the property. I’m not jazzing about that… The appeal process here in the city is lingering and our last appeal is set for Monday 5/19. Our handful of concerned citizens met yesterday - we learned of continued attempts at backdoor deals b/w the city /hospital - disgusted. Playing 🎾 this morning (first time in three weeks and second time in two months) -then taking a rest and revisiting previous appeals to prepare for Monday. NSV: I am consciously aware that I am entering the “rumination zone” and will pay attention today to make sure I keep my health first. Will take a series of 20 min 🙆♀️🚶♀️ & 🏋️♂️ breaks throughout the afternoon to diffuse and reset.
5/12 131.8 Spent much time contemplating this journey. Staggered my routine into little “snacks” throughout the day. It was a pretty “heavy” day - remembering fondly, with so much admiration my dear mom … Got to see DS, DDIL and DGS & sister. Worked in the yard with DH and had a wonderful early, healthy dinner. Was a 10/10.
5/11 131.4 Is this THE day I put on the FULL mindset to reach my BHAG? I’ve been coasting / drifting with a somewhat lackadaisical on/off attitude since February. Will take a minimum of 3 rounds for for the ⚖️ but with CONSTANT effort for 🙆♀️🏋️♂️⏱️🚶♀️💓💪🏻. Consistent🏋️♂️⏱️takes a different mentality and will spend time preparing for it today. Strength training is a mindset that I haven’t adopted- YET. My nutrition is good, but my REAL goal is to be stronger / fitter (#HSF) every year to live a healthy, vibrant & active life. I’ve stalled since February. What does it REALLY take?! Yes, structure / planning /researching is best for me… yes, I’m “skinny fat”… I looked back through my journal and it’s been a battle. Way too many starts and stops.

5/20:5/14: good start, let's see if I can keep it going while away. I'm leaving today for my son's college graduation.
For those of you who've had challenging or troubled children, never give up.
There were times in his life when I was truly terrified, first for his safety as an angry teenager, then his substance abuse in his 20's. He did not have an easy road, and it took a long time for him to find his way, but he did.
At 38 he's graduating with a BS in EE and is engaged to his "long-lost" high school sweetheart.
For others who've had to "tough love" their children, and have had moments of doubts: never give up the work, it takes some of our kids longer. My tears tomorrow will be joyful.

5/11 133.0 Happy Mother’s Day to those who celebrate. I believe I may be down 0.5 (so 132.5) after coffee and TMI. YAY! My Garmin watch is dead again! New batteries more than every 2 months isn’t very user friendly. 12/27-2/22, 3/17-5/10
5/12 133.0 Nothing fancy yesterday. My choice was EL Pollo Loco and we had a coupon for $4 off a meal for 2. I had leg and thigh, broccoli, and Loco salad with cilantro dressing. I DID eat my churro in the evening with coffee.
5/13 133.0 I will try to be happy hanging here as I know I’m eating LCHF and my body just has to decide I’m serious.
5/14 132.0 Fasted until 3:30 and had a beef patty and asparagus. 100 days until grandson’s wedding in Kona! Cramp in foot during the night and both calves when I got up. Need to remember electrolytes!

5/11- DNW5/12- DNW5/13- 167.15/14- 166.4 - I was not expecting this weight this morning. Especially since I felt really pudgy and looked quite bloated in the belly this morning. I nearly didn't weigh but realized that I have no excuse except what the mirror was showing me and I did everything right yesterday. I'm glad I did weigh because it was exactly what I needed to see after the last several weeks of feeling like I wasn't making any progress whatsoever. Here's to more progress in the next couple days before we leave!5 -

ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 193.6
05/11-194.6 ❌ - (Trend Weight: 195.0)
05/12 – 194.6 💠 (Trend Weight – 195.0)
05/13-194.2 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 194.9) A great day yesterday except for that poor snack choice last night that we won’t talk about. Under calories but over on carbs. Lots of movement outside working on the storm cleanup. Burning lots of brush, limbs and leaves. Most of the raking just in the bonfire area but tried to maximize it. Hair appointment today for a cut for myself and my son. Probably lunch afterwards as he expects it. With the autism he is still pretty childlike in many instances. He gets to pick the restaurant. I’ll try to choose smart but he’ll probably want the pizza parlor. Ugh….
🌺🌺🌺🌺 05/14-194.2 💠 - (Trend Weight: 194.8) More storm clean up outside yesterday which my fitbit recognized as activity. Meals were good. Nighttime snack could have been better. Trend weight still inching down. Happy Birthday to my husband Leonard in Heaven.
