5//21 start: +1 lbs. Will start being mindful of what I'm eating, log each day, drink 60 oz water, walk at least 8K steps.
5/22: logging for 2 days. Every bite. Staying within my goal for calories. Did ok with water today, didn't walk much (5.5K steps). Pouring outside so had to get what I could inside.
5/23: down 3.3 lbs since Monday am. Logging every bite, staying within my calorie goal. It's 5 pm and I only have 3.5K steps. Need to go for a walk. Not doing well with water either. Will see what I can pull off before the end if the day! Update: went for a walk and got in a good any of water. Unfortunately drinking tons of water: later in the day =up all night. Nonetheless, I met my goals! Yay!
5/24: down 4.2 lbs now. Got my steps, logged every bite. Water is good too. Wanted something sweet so got Halotop. Meh. Prob too much fake sugar today

Day/Weight/Comment
5/18 -- 185.6
5/19 -- 184.6
5/20 -- 184.0 That's the last of the water weight gone.
5/21 -- 184.0 In one more pound I'll hit the 20lbs mark. Still plenty of miles to go, but it will feel good to pass that marker. I'm starting to feel some difference in my clothes though I don't see any in the mirror yet.
5/22 -- 183.2 Very close to my lowest weight since 2013 (180). Once I pass that I'll feel like I'm making real progress.
5/23 -- 182.8 I've just passed the 20 pounds mark -- onwards to 30!
5/24 -- 183.8 I've been perfectly on plan so I'm not stressing this. I have noticed, though, that all of my rounds seem to fall into the same pattern -- big drop in the first half then struggle to hold on to it in the second. I wonder if this is some sort of natural cycle.
5/25 -- 182.6 Evening out again. This is why I weigh every day; if a once a week weigh in caught one of these natural fluctuations I'd probably throw in the towel and eat a whole tub of ice cream.

5/21 - 64.8kg
5/22 - 63.9kg (-0.9kg) - I don't know what happened there but I am not complaining! My guess is water weight dropping off after a low carb and low sodium day yesterday. I'm taking it as a win though! Back to my SW from R35 and readjusting my goal for this round.
5/23 - 63.4kg (-0.5kg) - Stuck to my calories and went for a long walk with a friend yesterday. I'm dubious about this number and expecting my period soon so won't be changing my goal again for this round.
5/24 - 63.1kg (-0.3kg) - I was oh so hungry yesterday and ate at maintenance but it was all "good" food. I also managed to recognise and avoid stress/boredom eating so I'm chalking it up as a win! Learnt my lesson and didn't skip breakfast this morning to avoid the same hunger today.

5/25 - 63.0kg (-0.1kg) - Looks like I'll have to work hard for this last 200g! Day off today and have prepped and pre-logged my lunch and snacks to avoid grazing all day. I think I need a padlock on my fridge sometimes!

Round 40 SW: 313.8 EW 307.0
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.)

5/23 306.8 (-0.2) (Eating out was good. Second time while on the Keto diet. Planning ahead is key for me. Need to hoof it to get to this round's goal weight.)

5/24 306.0 (-1.0) (Good day on Wednesday. Someone brought donuts into the office. I didn't eat one, didn't really even want one. They did look good though

. But focus on the long term goal must outweigh short term food desires.)

5/25 304.8 (-2.2) (Found myself hungry in the mid-afternoon. Used to be that was time for the vending machine to get a visit. This time I went to a nearby grocery store and found some cheese. Not nearly as exciting as a snickers but kept me on track. Holiday weekend upcoming -- family parties, Indy 500, more food challenges but I'm prepared more than I was a few weeks back.)

5/24- 226.2
5/25- 225.4 Wasn’t expecting this. Went over my fat goal yesterday and thought for sure I’d see a gain. I also slept for 10 hours. Need to prepare myself that this morning’s weight might not be truly reflective and I may see a slight gain tomorrow.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/18: 170.2; Went over my calorie goal with high carb foods but did try to make smart choices throughout the day and drank lots of water. Glad I didn’t gain.
5/19 169.4; drank lots of water yesterday but went over my calories with high carb food and beer (yay Friday) I had a little more self control than last weekend though!
5/20 170.6; I went to Zumba yesterday morning! I also ate a bag sandwich for lunch and chipotle with chips for dinner and didn’t even get 64oz of water in. I need to do better on the weekends food wise.
5/21 170.8; stayed under my calorie limit but didn’t drink all my water. I think I gain the water weight 2 days after poor eating choices. My new weekend goal is to just maintain. Which means less junk on Friday and Saturday nights.
5/22 168.8; stayed close to my calorie goal yesterday, and was VERY hydrated. If you stick to the plan the water weight will come off... eventually! Lol goal for the rest of the week is to have some self control and stay around the 168s.
5/23 169.6; stayed in my calorie limit, drank lots of water, and did T25 yesterday. I did eat pizza and chips for lunch and it’s probably water weight from the sugar and carbs from 2 days ago.
5/24 168.8; did pretty well with my eating and water yesterday, yay me! NSV: we have had lemon pound cake in the house all week and I’ve only had 1/2 of a slice so far!
5/25 170.0; idk how this happened. Was under my calories and met my water goal yesterday. Oh well!

5/22 - 78.9. Possibly 2 days of loss into one because of my schedule switch for work weight was taken at 8pm after waking up for night shift. Terrible day food wise though. Ate entirely junk food and pizza at 8.30pm. Ugh.

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!
5/23 201.0 I'm wondering if I'll get below 200 by the end of this round. We'll see.

Being good and sticking to my calorie goal each day.

Day/Weight/Comment

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.

5/23 - 157.8 - Can it be real? Continuing my happy dance. My food, water and exercise has been on point this round and it's showing. If this continues I'll be at my mini goal of 155 before June 15th (my goal date, also our 5 year anniversary) and it'll be the best anniversary gift I could have given myself. So excited.

5/24 - 159.0 - Late dinner with high sodium, not good. Eye lids a little swollen so I know I'm holding onto water. After eating dinner, I asked my husband, "why do we eat this?" His response was "because it's quick and easy." And while we need quick and easy dinners every now and again because our evenings can get crazy busy, I'll be scratching this item off our future grocery lists and plan for better quick and easy dinners that don't make me feel like crap the next day. Water will be my best friend today.

5/25 - 159.6 - No exercise yesterday, a slice of pizza and a second helping of noodles, I deserve this number. Will get back on track today though and make this weekend my friend instead of my enemy. I might not end at my goal but I'll be pleased with anything under 160.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/18--178.8 I woke up feeling 'puffy' and groggy today, and I have a headache. The scale reflects how I feel. Not a great start to this round but I'll try to make up for it this weekend.
05/19--TOM snuck up on me, so I'm avoiding the scale for a few days! That explains how I felt yesterday. Went to Pilates this morning and tracking my calories; I tend to want to binge eat this time of the month so I have to be extra vigilant. Was going to get some landscaping done but it's too cold outside today--hopefully tomorrow!
05/20 (Birthday)--Skipping the scale today. Last night we went to dinner to celebrate my birthday and we also bought a bunch of shrubs and plants to start filling in our bare front yard. The sun is shining and I can't wait to get out there and get things in the ground!
05/21--178.0 Not super happy with this number but I know it's probably related to TOM.
05/22--179.4 OMG you guys. I was soooooooo hungry last night. I ate WAY over my calories. Still, I'm hoping most of this is just water retention. I am noticing a pattern; I went back and looked and the last time I really felt like bingeing was right after TOM. I love that these challenges have helped me identify patterns so I can start trying to be better prepared.
05/23 (Anniversary)--177.8 Okay, that's much better! I felt like I was back on track yesterday.
05/24--177.0 Back to where I started the round! Went for a walk last night to get pie for our anniversary; only a few calories over my goal. Tonight is our Pilates class.
05/25--177.8 My body seems happy in this range; I need to have a breakthrough! We're going to Denver for the three-day weekend so probably will just maintain.
05/26--Out of town
05/27--Out of town
