Day/Weight/Comment
•6/7 -196.6 - Oh yeah. My tag-a-long friend.
•6/8 - 196.2 - My actual weight and this water retention is so funny to me. I guess I will see 195.6 again or less by the end of the 10 days. That seems to be the trend.
•6/9 - I weighed in at 198 very early this morning. No opportunity to weigh at my usual time. The increase was surely due to the fact that I took 20ozs of water filled with electrolytes to bed with me. I needed it. It was a hot day yesterday. Ran errands until late afternoon and cooked all evening. My granddaughter, 4, and grandson, 18 mos, were with me today. Five hours of coloring, painting, sticker activities, reading, music and nursery rhyme videos, climbing on me and lap sitting. I'm tired now. I had to rely on my peanut butter as my mid-day meal. I NEVER get to eat an actual meal when they are visiting. I'm feeding them all day though. My water intake is on the low side too. Why? I give those little rascals water, but they drink mine. Smh. I guess mine tastes better to them. Can't wait for the next visit.
•6/10 - 199.2 - Not alarmed by this weigh in. I just didn't weigh before consuming 16 ozs of water and 2 large mugs of coffee.
•6/11 - 195.2
•6/12 - 195.6 - Early weigh in
•6/13 - 196 - Early start, early weigh in and coffee. No water yet! Very unlike me. My routine will have slight disruptions the rest of the week due to Grands being sick daycare closing early, daycare graduation
•6/14 - 196.2 - Early weigh in - Despite the late start on my water consumption yesterday, I managed 136 ozs of fluid, 64 ozs of it water. I'm tired this morning, legs feel heavy, but no time for that, the Grands will be here shortly.
•6/15 - 196.6 - Personal plumbing issues no doubt

Day/Weight/Comment
Hi. I am Donna. I am on the low carb keto diet because I need to lose weight but also quickly lower my blood glucose levels since I am Type 2 diabetic and my glucose numbers got to a very dangerous level. So far it is working. My weight loss goals are also being met although I have found when it comes to weight loss, all true diets will work if you stick with it consistantly and try to get in some physical fitness as well. This is my first 10 day challenge. Good luck to us all (no matter which type of diet or physically activity you have chosen). We can do this folks!
6/07 193.8 lbs. I Had a doctor appointment today and found out my blood levels are all perfect including my cholesterol so I am thrilled. Dr. supports my keto diet and gave me some more tips. Stuck to my diet very good today although I still battle occasional cravings.
6/08 195.1 lbs. Darn that BBQ I attended anyway. I SHOULD NOT have had dessert either. Tomorrow will be better. I'm human and sometimes fail. But I always jump back on the horse and ride again, so I vow to be faithful tomorrow....
6/09 194.6 Going in the right directions finally. I have walked 1.5 - 3.0 miles each day including today. I have been steadfast to the diet today. I am proud of myself today.
6/10 194.6 I walked 13,180 steps today with lots of physical activity. Most of this was work related and not repetitive exercise, but still healthy on the heart and burns a couple hundred calories. I stuck to my diet today with very little temptation. Some days are just better than others!
6/11 193.6….. Down one pound. Slow movement. I have Intermittent fasted each and every day on the 12:8 plan. Today I also practiced an Egg Fast with very low calories to give myself a jolt as I wonder if I am hitting a bit of a plateau. Had 12,812 steps by 11:53 pm. Took a nice 1.5 mile moderate paced walk. REMEMBER FOLKS, ANY PROGRESS IS STILL PROGRESS. SOME ACCOMPLISHMENTS ARE NSV'S. I REMAIN PROUD OF US ALL.
6/12 191.0 whoo hoo. Finally lost some weight which likely includes water weight, but Hey! It needed to go too! Also, I finally went to the bathroom (if you know what I mean). Sometimes hard to go on this particular diet due to lack of whole grains. I Didn’t feel too well today. Less than 6000 steps on my fitbit. No walk in the neighborhood. But I stuck to my diet very well. That’s the report on my physical. My mental and emotional state was very good because I feel I scored a scale victory. I’m just a smidgen from the 180’s. whoo hoo! This challenge is keeping me honest and keeping me real. I hope it is helping all of you too.
6/13 190.8 Out of town today / travel so I know I will be going off course. Will likely see a bump up tomorrow. Also had no ability to take my normal walk so I did a few stretches. Clocked in 6,700 steps, over 2 miles and 7 flights of stairs by 11:30 pm. I have a feeling I am really going to pay for all of this tomorrow. I got in lots and lots of water today though which is a NSV for me.
6/14 196.0 Likely a lot of water weight accompanying the fat. 3393 Calories yesterday while out of town. Over 300 carbs. Lots of sodium. While it was good that I drank lots of water, I think I am water-logged and bloated. I managed a 3 mile walk at moderate pace today and walked a total of over 7 miles including my work. I hope tomorrow will bring a better weight.

@quiltingjaine LOL Thanks for showing me the way. I had a daily goal that I didn't meet. Didn't even think about looking at my weekly progress. That's why I joined this group--for encouragement. Have a blessed day.5

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
Ecstatic with my 5/15/18 annual workplace Health Risk Assessment: waist smallest since 2007 and BMI 25.6
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.

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!
So, again, I stayed in the 180's in the last round barely. I would like to really secure myself in the 80's, so I can move on!

Calories are down significantly & I kept exercising. Body is adjusting to hot temps, no fiber for 3-1/2 days, refined flour and sugar for first time in 6-8 months.. I’m sure it will all be back to normal soon. Probably just in shock LOL
6/14 168.4 10-day moving average:168.3
Yes! I’ve learned a lot these past 5 days!
My body is getting back to normal now that the prep and the test is over, and I’m eating my regular foods (high fiber, low sodium, etc) again. I’m seeing why I was overweight ... and yes, obese, before... AND why I’m not now. I had my first non-homecooked meal in 7-8 months last night - a very special event. I was mindful of every bite and enjoyed it greatly. But I was also mindful that even though I had not overeaten, I didn’t actually feel as good. With my foods (pretty simple fare), I always feel good. A very pleasant discovery!
6/15 168.8 10-day moving average: 168.3
A business dinner last night - the last thing like this - back to homecooked. Stayed under my calories & paid attention to my body since then. Reminded me totally of how I felt before changing my diet. Fake uncomfortable hunger early in AM, and other things that would be TMI.
Have only gotten 5-6K steps for a few days due to ankle instead of my 10K+. I’ve iced it and strapped it; I really want to go hiking. It’s difficult for me to know when to rest it & when to keep exercising.

Round 43
My Round 1
SW: 132.4 (6/7/18)
GW: 123 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
6/07- 132.4 - lots of brown rice and broccoli for lunch and dinner. Need to make sleep a priority.
6/08 - 133.2 -always annoying when you eat no processed food, lots of veggies and come in heavier. Gym and yoga. Intermittent fast from 6pm-11am.
6/09 132.8. Yay. Was expecting to have gained weight as we did sushi last night but I don’t use say sauce so winning. I slept through my morning alarm to go run. Sleep continues to be a need. Plan to run later and indoor Rock climb.
6/10-133. I had 2 beers and pasta for dinner last night. I needed the carbs. Lots of physical activity so came in under my calorie allowance. 2 hour solid effort bike ride this am. Goal is to not “reward” myself with junky food and /or beer but rather healthy foods and just one beer or glass of wine. I got sleep last night and feel so much better!
6/11 - 132.8. intermittent fast. Last night I ate a frozen veggie pizza. Not the best but not the worst. Enjoyed adult beverages, too. Early dinner last night to prepare for morning fast. Headed to the gym and then a short hill repeat run.
6/12 - 133. Drag. But I am not surprised. Work has been very busy. Popped another veggie pizza in the oven. I only ate 2/3 of it this time. I ate a big arugula salad first. I know I am making good decisions and eating within and under my calorie allowance. Eventually I think things will give6 -
I can't figure out why my post won't save the entire body and keeps cutting it off midway through0

@back2cute and @troutt3677 do not be discouraged, weight loss is not linear and after initial larger losses it is NORMAL to stall out for a while. Let your accomplishment be what you are doing every day with food and exercise, and the scale will move.
As my hubs always says when I'm antsy, You know how you get patience? ... ... ... WAIT. (ba dump dump)
Oh and @tiabirdie56 - "personal plumbing" you crack me up! I have serious issues that way sometimes, left over from a childhood of poor eating it seems, and often wonder if my friends here can look at my daily weights and know ... a little ... too much about certain things in my life!! OMG so human here.6 -

6/08 - 156.6 - Nice to see this number again. Had high amount of sodium yesterday so might see an increase the next day or two but tried to drink lots of water too. Busy weekend starting today with some kind of food get together each day so will need to have lots of will power and really pay attention to what I eat so I don't gain.
6/09 - 156.6 - hmm....
6/10 - 156.2 - Was at a wild game dinner last night so I didn't log any food as I wasn't sure how but I only had a small plate and 2 spiked sparkling waters and a light lunch before so my calorie intake shouldn't of been too horrible. Weigh in is also a few hours late as we stayed up really late and I enjoyed sleeping in. Hoping to get a walk in today between the rain storms. Happy Sunday!
6/11 - 156.2 - So close to my mini goal but also very close to the day I wanted to meet it by. Making sure I get my water in, I eat healthy and I'm going to throw in a couple extra workouts the next few days to help me get there. Was pretty relaxed this weekend when it came to exercising and my steps but it's time to up the game.
6/12 - 155.0 - please be true, please be true, please be true! I've been working hard the past few days to see this number and praying it'll stick around. I'll celebrate tomorrow if I see it again because this is my goal weight for this round plus my mini goal I wanted to reach by the 15th. And when I say celebrate, I mean with a happy dance and a new dress to wear on our anniversary.
6/13 - 154.8 - Looks like I'm happy dancing and buying a new dress! At this weight I'm 20 pounds down from the number that made me finally commit to losing weight because I never wanted to see that number again. Joining this group had been the best thing for me and I will continue on with the second half of my weight lose journey, right here, round after round. Thank you all for helping me reach this point!
6/14 - 155.0 - @ 4:00am.. a few hours earlier than I normally weigh but had to leave the house by 5 for our mini vacation!
6/15 - Anniversary - No scales this morning, had pizza for lunch yesterday but then walked around Gatlinburg for a bit, cooked dinner at the cabin. No snacking but had a couple adult beverages. Ate a packed lunch today in-between tubing trips, eating dinner out for our anniversary.

@brightresolve: Thank you for your support and wise words. The scale really triggered me today and I all but threw in the towel. I ate every bad carby thing because that is how I self-sabotage -- like a toddler throwing a tantrum because she didn't get the toy she wanted. Everything is a learning though, so tonight I will reign things in. Hopefully, I can salvage a bit before tomorrow's weigh in.4
