5/19 197.6 I am happy with that. yesterday was a one pound drop, not bouncing back up is a good result.

5/21196.6 Had a great day yesterday. Church, then a textile art exhibition and went for a lovely long walk in the sunshine with my son, and planned meals!
5/22 197 Can I blame the bounce on getting up 3 hours earlier today than yesterday?

Day/Weight/Comment

•5/18 - 200.2 -slight uptick in weight this morning. Restless night and my buddy is back, fluid retention. I already need a nap.
•5/19 - 199.8 - That .8 still hanging on
•5/20 - 199.2 - I probably weigh a little bit under this number, but I drank water before stepping on the scale. My husband and I went to his Aunt's surprise 80th birthday celebration yesterday evening. It was after 5 pm when we got there. I eat my first meal at 2 or 3 so I wasn't hungry. Had no desire for cake or the godiva chocolate bars given out as favors. I gave mine to my DIL. I sipped on my lemon water and thoroughly enjoyed seeing and talking with family members that I haven't seen in years.

•5/21 - 199.6 -I can't blame the increase on sodium, because on keto you need sodium. I think I can pin it to electrolyte imbalance, specifically magnesium. I had cramping in my calf muscle down through my foot last night. It woke me up and I had to walk it out. I haven't had my electrolyte water for over a week. I'll be drinking it today though.

•5/22 - 200 - I weighed at 5 am, holding on to a ton of water. I usually weigh at 10am. We had a joyous family occasion to celebrate this past Saturday, but today is a somber occasion. My BIL passed suddenly last week and today is his funeral.

Female, 54, 5ft. 6 in.
OSW - 186 (March 2018)

R40 - SW 174, EW 171 (-3)


Day/Weight/Comment
5/18 - 170.5 - I just had a big drop the past two days, so I'll be happy if I can end this round at 169.5.
5/19 - 171.5 - I was expecting this. I haven't gone over my calories, so I'll just ride this water weight out.
5/20 - 171 - I'm happy it went down today. Here's hoping it stays the same or drops tomorrow.
5/21 - 171 - I'm holding steady and I'm good with that. I'm starting to feel a little anxious about the Memorial Day weekend coming up though. We've got family coming in and picnics to attend. I'll just have to start planning my menu around a lot of vegetables and less mayo based salads.
5/22 - 170.5 - Heading back down. My goal of hitting 169.5 is looking a little less likely, but I'm still happy I didn't have to see 172 so far this round.

5/18 202.7 Excited for this round! Getting close to being under 200! Good luck, everyone!
5/19 202.1 I love graphing my weight loss. I don’t plot my trend line for weight loss. I just plot my actual weight for each morning. I’ve had 10 days of weight loss in a row on my scale. Based on the past several weeks of my graph, I’m expecting a few days of my weight leveling off before it begins that downward slope again. Guess I’ll see if that happens this time. Woke up to another rainy day here in NJ. Walking in my yard is like walking on a wet sponge. All you do is squish.
5/20 201.7 Still going down. Not going to complain. 
5/21 201.4
5/22 201.6 Could be I weighed in 3 hours earlier than usual, or could be my weight loss leveling off for a few days after 12 days of loss in a row. Whichever….no worries. Have a nice day, everyone!

Day/Weight/Comment
5/18 - 228.0 - Here we go... My numbers have been slowly but steadily going down but I'm hoping a daily accountability challenge will help too! It's just ten days right... I can FOCUS for 10 days!
5/19 - 227.4 - Yesterday was a great "on track" day... Even with multiple distractions and temptations!
5/20 - 226.6 - phew... Was not looking forward to stepping on the scale...was NOT a good diet food day but I tried to make good choices. I know I didn't drink enough water, but I got to spend the day with my son so we treated ourselves and ate out at our favorite restaurant... Lots and lots of walking while shopping and trying on clothes helped eat up some of those calories I splurged on! Goal for today stay on track and DRINK WATER!
5/21 - 225.8 - I can't believe I'm .2 lbs away from 20lbs lost since I started in March! Yesterday was a good day... On track and not to many temptations... Today will be a different. Must. Have. FOCUS!
5/22 - 226.6 - well that's not as bad as I expected since I spent the evening at a vineyard/brewery. On to today!

5/18 - 161.6 - Over my steps goal, over my water goal but then ate perogies for a late dinner. Cooked them different so not covered in butter and was still within calories so I hope to not see an increase the next couple days. A good start to this round and hoping to finally see the 150s.

5/19 - 161.2 - Moving in the right direction. Busy evening yesterday mulching but finally that was the last that needed done. Had a very late dinner of a delicious burger and had a couple mixed drinks so I won't be surprised to see an increase in the next couple days. Also I wrote up my post yesterday but never actually posted it but I'm definitely in for this round.

5/20 - 162.2 - Ok with this as I know exactly why I'm up. Had a great weekend but it's time to get back on track.

5/21- 160.6 - Hoping to hop off this roller coaster and settle back down into a more steadier rythm but happy with today's number. Going to try my best to keep it around and then continue to bring it down.

5/22 - 158.8 - Doing the happy dance this morning! Whoo! Please, please, please stick around now.

I started this challenge at round 27, at 227.8. I ended round 38 at 194. That is a 33 pound loss! I love this challenge! It goes against everything I USED to believe about weighing in daily, and has taught me to really listen to my body, not get discouraged by small set backs, and to celebrate the small victories!

Round 41 SW 189.2 My goal is keep moving down and stay in the 180's and to finally get to the 40 pound mark!

5/18 188.8
5/19 188.8 Went to Zumba today for the first time in a while...feels great!
5/20 189.6 So I wasnt the best yesterday, but I zumba'd my butt off! Hiked 3 miles today... i don't wanna go back!
5/21 189.4

Boundaries for R39:
- No manmade sugar;
- No yeast aka bread and alcohol;
- No oil aka nuts, chips, cheese, meat;
- 30 minutes of exercise;
- 10k steps.

5/17: 149.0. (T-1) Another day for sleeping in. That’s okay. I’ll have plenty of activity today. The yard needs mowing and I’ll push away from my desk and walk at lunch. Lunch is packed.
5/18: Field trip with the girl child, splunking. Morning workout. Food- was okay.

5/19: 148.5. Logged it. Won’t see it again for a while, but I happened. Weight lifting. Followed by golf. Lots of activity. But the food just wasn't there. A couple glasses of wine. Some chocolates...

5/20: Busy day in the kitchen. Food was plentiful and on plan but wasn't logged. Active day but no formal activities. Tracker at 12k steps. No happy face today since the food just wasn't there.

5/21: 152.0- Was away from MFP this weekend. Allowing myself to have some freedom from tracking lately and few things (ice cream, wine, grilled cheese) that are not within my "plan". Today I am back on track. Excited to see a new number (<149) in the days to come as I shed the retained water from my indiscretions. Walked at lunch with Leslie. Mowed the yard after work with some other yard work. ~17k steps. Food was on track and logged. It was a GOOD day!

5/22: 150.0- Morning weight workout. Won’t be able to walk at lunch. TKD tonight?

Round 41 SW: 307.0 GW 303.0

5/18 306.4 (-0.6) (Coming on 11 days on keto based diet. Doing well, staying focused, getting past "bread" desires -- mostly. Still a struggle and I didn't realize how much carbs constituted my daily caloric intake. Breaking old habits in favor of new habits.)

5/19 No weigh in

5/20 No weigh in (Spent the last two days in the great outdoors camping with my seven year old and his Cub Scout Pack. Great weather, lots of opportunity for exercise, ate well and burned off calories. We'll see if I'm rewarded on the scale tomorrow morning)

5/21 308.0 (+1.0) (Just a blip up on the scale but back to tracking everything today after a weekend in the wild.)

5/22 307.6 (+0.6) (Why does down take so much longer than up -- good meeting with my medical provider yesterday. She likes the overall trend, we discussed energy level, just need to keep working the plan. Dinner out tonight with my wife for our anniversary. Planning ahead to know what to order.)

Age 60, 5'4.5" 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. Changed MFP setting 5/5/18 [R39] to 1/2# per week loss ~ within 10# of UGW, weight loss had stalled 3 months + was feeling hungry more often.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145 / no goal dates ~ I get there when I get there
Thrilled with my 2/15/18 annual physical: BP 110/68, pulse 64 and BMI 26.14
Annual workplace Health Risk Assessment 5/15/18: Waist the smallest it's been since 2007 according to past HRA records.

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.

R40 EW 153.0 LW 152.5

Round 40 (previous round)
05/08: 154.0 Did ok all day, stuck w/ prelogged meals & snacks, and net calories w/i limit... then late evening snacking on walnut halves ~ ack!!! Really liking my new calorie limit, but need to figure out what to do about snack attacks ~ I never used to. Rest day ~ Fitbit 10,194 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 & 30 floors. Raked part of front yard after work ~ so many whirlybirds ~ that was a good arm workout!
05/09: 154.0 Yes! Stuck pretty much w/ prelogged meals, snacks + one curveball. Net calories green, sodium red (leftover Chinese food), sugar -13 (some fruit, power muffin, but also unplanned small portion of ice cream cake in office for manager's granddaughter's 5th bday ~ don't get me started!), fiber & protein good & 17c water ~ actually felt thirsty! Walked dog before work / 3.4 mi 1:02:23. Fitbit 16,402 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) & 54 floors ~ evening, packed 3 boxes of Easter decorations & stored in basement ~ yes, I still had Easter decorations out.
05/10: 153.5 I think changing my MFP setting to 1/2# per week, and having more net calories to play with, is agreeing with me. Net calories -15, sodium -721, sugar -19 (mostly fruit, power muffin & yogurt), fiber excellent, protein good & 14c water. Walked dog before work in off + on sprinkles + beat the rain / 3.43 mi 1:01:05 / remembered to stretch. Fitbit 16,489 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) & 46 floors. Workplace step challenge ~ currently in 31st place / top 30 women get prize at 10-week point... too bad leader board combines men & women, and everyone is listed by code number with no gender identification.
05/11: 154.0 Net calories -85, sodium -517, sugar -13, fiber & protein good & 14c water. Walked dog after work 3.42 mi 59:43. Fitbit 13,538 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 & 41 floors.
05/12: 153.5 Rest day / Fitbit 9,134 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 & 33 floors. Net calories -156, sodium green (yay), sugar -12, protein good, fiber excellent & 14c water, so not too bad for rest day.
05/13: 154.0 Walked dog 3.81 mi 1:06:24 pace 17:25 / remembered to stretch. Fitbit 16,035 steps, 250+ steps 10/14 & 29 floors. Ate ice cream after dinner. Oops. Net calories -191, sodium -594, sugar -12, fiber & protein good. Oh well, it was an active day.
05/14: 153.5 Walked dog 4.36 miles 1:16:38 pace 17:34 ~ happy dog & happy me. Fitbit 18,600 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 & 33 floors. Dinner plans had to be changed b/c something I thought I had in freezer - not! Still managed to keep net calories & sugar green, sodium red, fiber & protein a little low, 14c water.
05/15: 153.0 Weight machine & circuit training before work. Fitbit 14,642 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) & 18 floors ~ observation fieldwork = lots of steps. Net calories green (yay), sodium -673, sugar -32 (had no idea baked beans would be so high / may have screwed up glucose reading ~ ack!), fiber & protein excellent & 14c water. [5/15/18 annual workplace Health Risk Assessment at 8:15 a.m. (fasting blood draw)]
05/16: 152.5 Rest day since couldn't eat or work out before HRA / nurses were impressed by my changes since last year. Had to promote MFP & my MFP community, of course ~ I couldn't have done it without you! Fitbit 7,694 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 & 28 floors. Net calories -142 (not too bad for rest day), sodium green (YAY), sugar -3, fiber & protein a little low & 13c water.
05/17: 153.0 Walked dog before work / 3.07 mi 53:07 pace 17:17. Fitbit 14,681 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) & 62 floors. Net calories -138, sodium & sugar green (yay), fiber & protein good & 14c water. [5/17/18 ~ 8 hr seminar + 1 hr drive time = very sedentary day]

05/18: 153.5 Had 8 hr seminar + 1 hr drive time + no workout = very sedentary day. Fitbit 5,483 steps, 250+ steps 8/14 & 12 floors. Had every intention of eating small portions of whatever lunch and refreshments were served. Not so much. By evening, the introvert in me was exhausted, having handled seminar check-in and networking with 26 people in my professional association all day, even though I loved it. So after I drove 33 miles back to my city & deposited seminar checks at in-store bank, I picked up rotisserie chicken, deli salads and a few groceries on my way home, and proceeded to eat with abandon, including WAY too much sugar. After, felt bloated and blah. 11c water (at least I did that right). Starting fresh today.
