@31flavors I believe you are seeing the effect of your pizza and wine. I find it takes 2-3 days for splurges to stabilize. JMHO

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
So far this has been ALL KETO - NO EXERCISE! I’m within a few pounds of my goal!
3/29 139.0 First time in weeks I’ve added HWC to my coffee and it was a Venti latte from Starbucks. No great eating choices working at the quilt show yesterday either. I should have just had the protein shake I took. Back on track today!
3/30 139.5 Sweet Tomatoes for lunch yesterday. Red Lobster with A&C today. Don’t understand the gain, will stick to the plan.
3/31 139.0 I had the Lunch Garlic Shrimp Scampi with broccoli and a garden salad with red wine vinegar for lunch yesterday. YUM! Today I’m going to the quilt show.
4/1 139.0 Yesterday morning I had my coffee and grabbed a “3 ingredient peanut butter cookie” as I went out the door. That little cookie kept me satisfied until 6PM! Then I made a hamburger patty, fried egg and spinach. (The cookie recipe says to make 15 1” balls but I ended up with 26 1” balls. Clearly the writer needed a ruler! LOL)
4/2 139.0 Water fitness starts today! At 7:45AM it is 65* and sunny! I’ve had my morning coffee and have an hour to “process” it.
4/3 139.0 I expected to be sore this morning but think drinking a copious amount of water (at least 17 cups) has flushed the lactic acid from my muscles. I feel GREAT!10 -
My first round and looking forward to it!

Day/Weight/Comment
3/29 - 167 - not much cardio this week but looking forward to stepping it up next week!
3/30 - 169 - Felt heavy this morning and knew the scale would reflect it. Didn't drink much water yesterday and while I was under calories, what I did eat wasn't the best choice for me. Hoping to make up for yesterday, today and have a better weigh in tomorrow!
3/31 - 168 - Weighing less than yesterday but still heavier than when I started. Ate a healthy breakfast and lunch yesterday but may have had too many pepperoni rolls and mojitos at dinner. Doing a 30 minute strength training this morning and then get some walking in doing some shopping. Hoping for a better weigh in tomorrow.
4/1 - 170 - My weight is so up and down from day to day! I was under calories yesterday but I didn't drink as much water as I normally do. I didn't eat any of my earned exercise calories and I still gain weight. Feeling a little bloated this morning though so I'm hoping it's just water weight. Going to watch what I eat today for Easter and load up on water. Happy Easter all!
4/2 - 171 - Was expecting the increase so not surprised and won't let it get me down. Today I was able to get back into the gym for some cardio and got my sweat on listening to some good music, came home and took care of some outdoor chores and going to finish out my evening with Day 6 of my 30 day challenge. Feeling optimistic for future weigh ins and hoping to atleast be back to the weight I started this round at if not less. This may be my first round here but it won't be my last
4/3 - 170 - Nice to see the scale going back down, hoping to see another decrease tomorrow. Hitting the gym today and will complete Day 7 of my challenge. Daughter did the challenge with me yesterday and it was a lot of fun doing it together and she asked if I would wait for her to get home from school today so we could do it together again. Hoping to also fit in a nice walk today during my daughter's soccer practice if the rain ever let's up.

Round 9 for me. I REALLY wanted to shoot for ONEDERLAND this round, so I'm going to. I may not get there, but I'm going to give it all I've got. Potential issues that could slow me down: one scheduled day of basketball, my brother-in-law flaking out on me again regarding teaching me squats and deadlifts (meeting up with him Saturday night), Easter (dinner and candy), and potentially feeling a little bit MEH. No matter what happens regarding my goal, though, my weight trend is clearly and steadily heading in the right direction.

Day/Weight/Comment
3/29 = 203.4 (-0.8). Another BOUNCE BACK™, but a good way to start the challenge. I'm getting excited about the Keto idea, but it's not so much about weight loss (as I'm getting pretty good at that). I've talked about potential health benefits (less inflammation, something good regarding my brain, etc.), but I also recognize how hopelessly addicted to sugar I am. To me, if it's not actually a drug, it might as well be. When I get near it, I go insane. It takes EVERYTHING in me to avoid partaking in this habit, and EVEN MORE to get me to stop once I've started. It's a craving, it NEVER makes me feel good when I eat it (just my taste buds!), and I think my life might be a little better when it's no longer part of it. This will be an experiment, but one that I'm excited to try. As soon as I make an appointment with my doctor to make sure I'm not going to kill myself with it, that is. Food was good yesterday, though may have been just slightly below maintenance (I'm careful to estimate "over" when tracking food). Going to the gym tonight with my wife. I'm pretty fit overall, and I did a bunch of research regarding proper form on squats and deadlifts, so I'm going to try them tonight (with very light weights). T minus one more week before I can play basketball again (stupid Spring Break).
3/30 = 203.2 (-0.2). Had a decent day eating yesterday. I'm noticing that, since I've been tracking steps and having them converted to "extra calories," I've been eating all those calories. It's not bad, necessarily, but it's been happening. What also happens, though, is I'm walking a lot more as a result. It's probably a good tradeoff, but I'm thinking I'll try to eat back no more than half (something I try to do on any exercise day). I'm 99% sure I'm going to try keto. If I can get through the first 8 weeks, I'll stick with it for at least 6 months to see if I notice any tangible benefits. I'm going to start in a couple of weeks, though, because I want to enjoy my Easter candy in a non-binge way. My last hurrah. Don't judge me!
3/31 = 202.0 (-1.2). DROOSH™ (night after drinking). Happy hour with coworkers led to 3 beers (not too bad), a quesadilla (all I had for dinner), and a minor binge on Peeps and Lucky Charms marshmallows (450 calories or so) when I got home. Food otherwise was pretty good for the day. Finally going to learn deadlifts and squats from my brother-in-law today (unless he flakes). Having a hard time trusting that this is my actual weight, but I'm going to suspend disbelief for today.
4/1 = 202.4 (+0.4). I expected a bigger bump than this, so I'm relatively happy with this number. I have to confess that I am writing this in the evening after a really long Easter Sunday at my in-laws' house. I had lunch out with my wife and brother-in-law yesterday, but at a small dinner to compensate (and stayed under calories). I finally learned how to deadlift and squat (as brother-in-law did NOT flake on me), so I'll be starting SL 5x5 soon (probably a week from tomorrow). I'll write about today (Easter) tomorrow morning after my weigh-in. Hope everyone had a good holiday weekend.
4/2 = 205.0 (+2.6). This would be shocking if it wasn't so expected. Holidays are kind of meh. My plan for this week was to spread my candy out over the next two weeks. I'll have some of it, but I think I'll be giving most of it away. Ready to jump back on the wagon this week. Have a friend visiting on Tuesday and Wednesday; will try to make healthy choices and eat/drink reasonable portions.
4/3 = 203.4 (-1.6). BOUNCE BACK™. I didn't eat in a particularly healthy way yesterday, but I was within calories, so it was better than Easter! Yesterday I ate at one of the places I won't be eating at when I start my new way of eating. I'm doing a bit of a "farewell tour" of sorts. I'm not going to change my challenge goal, but it's going to be TOUGH to reach at this point, especially with my friend visiting tonight and tomorrow (she's a foodie/drinkie). I'll do what I can to get close. At least basketball is back this Thursday. That should help out my bottom line. Feeling a little disconnected today; I wonder how much my 5 hours of sleep has to do with it. My wife and I spent about 7 hours cleaning last night after work in preparation of my friend's visit (my wife spent an extra 3 hours after I went to bed). I need to get myself motivated to keep my home cleaner on a regular basis. These marathon cleaning sessions could lead to divorce if we're not careful.

Age 60, 5'4" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me.

My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.

A family that was dear to me and many people I know recently died in a horrific car accident on the California cost. Two mothers and 3 of their 6 adopted children were found, and the other 3 are missing. I'm not looking for empathy for "my" loss, but maybe a few prayers that these kids will somehow be found alive and together.

3/29: 223lbs. Ate 2300 calories. I walked 11000 steps and had a 70 minute workout. Hopefully the workout and steps were enough to put me in a significant deficit for the day.

3/31: 223lbs
4/1: No data. Stomach Bug,
4/2: Stomach bug.
4/3: 219lbs. Most of that loss is water weight from being somewhat dehydrated, so I’ll probably gain a pound or two over the next couple of days. I probably lost some fat too because I basically ate nothing for two days and my appetite is only slowly coming back today.

04/02: 150.0
No explanation for a loss, I was an eating machine last week. I did pretty well today, though: calories, water, exercise all on point.
04/03: 149.5
Another new low and I'm really stoked about this! I haven't seen the 140s since my early teens, as far as I can remember. Today started with lots of exercise and water, um, then turned into a huge buffet dinner. Might have done a few days' worth of damage. I have my meal plan all set for the rest of the week though.8 -
03/26/2018 : SW: 125.8 CW: 124.0 GW: 115
Goals for this round: Get to 122.5
1. eat within calorie limits
2. no mindless/unhealthy snacking, limit eating out/takeaway
3. stay AF through 6/7 days,
4. 8000-10,000steps 6/7 days
5. 8-10 cups of H20
Day/Weight/Comment
3/29 - 124.0 lbs(Starting no. looked doubtful, having dropped suddenly from 125.8 after MFP for last 3-4 days). Ate in calorie limits; no mindless snacking; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day.
3/30 - 124.0 lbs Ate in calorie limits; no mindless snacking; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day.
3/31 - 122.4 lbs (?) Ate in calorie limits; was sucked into a bit of mindless snacking took a few bites but otherwise stayed away; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day. The number on the scale looked doubtful. Was back to 124 midday, so may be a fluke. Remember to eat meals on time to avoid snacking.
4/1 - 123.5lbs Ate in calorie limits; snacked but accounted, need to plan and control better; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day.
4/2 - 123.2 lbs Ate in calorie limits; no mindless snacking ; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day. Last 2 days feel like I am constantly eating, adjust meals to give myself break between meals.
4/3 - 123.2 lbs Ate in calorie limits; no mindless snacking ; AF; 10,000+ steps; 10 cups H2O :: Good day. Adjusted meals, much better, but got busy in meetings and crammed food, drink, walk at end of the day. Go everywhere with water bottle, prioritize timely eating and breaks. 4 days to go. Lets do it!

Round 36 SW: 69.0 kg
Round 36 GW: 68.5 kg
UGW: 60 kg
Day/Weight/Comment
3/29 - 69.0 kg - hey, I had gotten to 70.00 for a couple of days, so being back in the 60's is good. Ate salmon for lunch and salad with juuust a little bit of pasta for dinner. Score score
3/30 - 68.8 kg - happy my cholesterol is in check, also looking forward to the weekend. Forgot my lunch card at home - not the best thing to do, since the other cafeteria serves only fast food. I'll try to find something tasty and healthy (I do love seemingly impossible missions).
3/31 - 68.6 kg in the morning. Going to eat Chinese food tonight though, so I expect a slight increase tomorrow.
4/1 - 69.4 kg - as assumed
4/2 - 68.9 - at the end of day. At least I am remaining in the 68's
4/3 - 68.3 kg in the morning... starting to wonder if my scale is malfunctioning... or are these the wonders of portion control and giving up on soda?
4/4 - 68.9 kg - why? had a light lunch yesterday, had a broccoli cream soup for dinner...

4/2 98.8 eh what?!?!? Gotta be water…
4/3 97.5 that's better! Went a bit more strict on myself yesterday and it seems to have paid off. Now to keep it up for the rest of the challenge! I want my 96.5kg damn it!
4/4 96.8 woohoo! Being a lot more strict with myself and really being mindful about what I eat! Making much better food choices! Let's get that 96.5kg goal!

3/29 273.5 I like the start so far just a rest day so no lifting going to do some light steady state cardio rehab shoulder work feel like a dope lifting 5lb kettlebell and struggling but gotta do it
3/30 274.8 A little surprising but was a tad sick with upset stomach so guessing my body sucked in some water as was under calorie and did a light cardio for my off day at gym
3/31 272.8 Nice Woosh surprising went to opening day and ate ok but not my normal range of foods and not "clean" as normal so maybe I can lose weight and still enjoy everything in moderation
4/1 272.5 It wasn't a dream got good walk in yesterday and hopefully today goes the same
4/2 274.0 Damn easter bunny
4/3 273.5 Back on track stated new job and hurt my back yesterday so taking off today from the gym so need to watch calories close today

Nothing works unless you have a sustained calorie deficit over time. Anything will work if you have a sustained calorie deficit over time.
Motivation is overrated. What you need is education, willingness to eat less, a good plan, and discipline to stick to it.
According to Big Fat Myths: When You Lose Weight, Where Does the Fat Go? which is an interesting perspective on "diet" 148oz / 9.25 lbs of food/water/oxygen a day but depending on how efficient everything processes we don't operate on a perfect 24 hour cycle to use all that so you get those fluctuations. I think that is semi comforting to keep in mind we are not robots and CICO doesn't operate at perfect 24 hour scale either.5 -
Historical SW (January 2017): 193

R35 AVE = 157.2 (EW = 156.2)
Goal for this round: 155ish. This will most likely be a maintenance round for me if I’m lucky. I had a big loss last round and that is usually followed by a stagnant period. I’m ok with that; my body and I are figuring each other out! I also am in the middle of a kitchen make-over, so…I’m eating out almost every meal. I’ll be happy to mostly maintain until I can cook again.
Day/Weight/Comment
3/29 = 156.4
3/30 = 156.6
3/31 = 155.8 Got the bounce to reverse, so that’s good. Also I have a good grill now that hubby and I can cook on while the kitchen is still without appliances. Won’t have to eat out quite as often, although cleaning up after cooking, with no sink, will be fun.
4/1 = 155.4 Was SO good to cook at home last night! Easter buffet today though so calories will probably be over today. Hoping for some exercise in the afternoon though to help offset.
4/2 = 157.4. Easter cost me two pounds, but hopefully only for a little while. I can get this back down in a few days, I think.
4/3 = 157.2
4/4 = 155.8 Headed back down now. YAY! Had a long, fast walk in the evening, almost dancing to music in 76 degree warmth. Spring may finally be here.
