7/27 266.8
7/28 266.8 My goal this round is -3 lbs. I have been gaining and losing the same 5 lbs for seriously like 3months, it is so frustrating. Especially when I am actually trying. Its like I gain wt if I just look at food, drives me nuts. But, I'm not throwing in the towel, my LDL chol is 120 and I will get it down to the 80's by my next labs Oct 11. Thats my motivator plus I know losing 50-60 lbs would change the whole dynamic of my health moving forward.

Round 48 *Will be on vacation during the majority of this round
7/27: 165.0/Had to work today, so got up super early to get in a run and exercise. Looking forward to starting vacation tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how my runs go as I am going from super flat terrian to hilly terrian, in the final week of C25k training, ehhhhh. I plan on trying to stay within my calorie allowance, but things happen.
7/28 165.2/Leaving for vacation today. Would like to see this number down not up, hoping to maintain. Going to try and log in with weight depending on scale access, but might be done for rest of this round.7 -

Seeking lower bodyfat%
July is the month that I will assess what foods I can eat, once in a whi!e, outside of keto. I do not expect any loss of weight. If I eat something that makes me gain or not feel well, then "OFF WITH ITS HEAD! Lol, no, but definitely off of my foods list.

Day/Weight/Comment
•7/27 - 189.2 - Early weigh in. This end of round drop and beginning round overnight gain of ONE pound seems to be my trend. I'm officially in the overweight BMI category. Kind of a weird eating day for me yesterday. Went to help my niece again, but was rushed, so I threw some random food items into my lunchbag. None of my plans for the day were achieved. 35g carbs, 26g net carbs. Lettuce, grape tomatoes, pickled jalapeños, strawberries, cottage cheese, peanut butter
•7/28 - 187.8 - Okay, I know, I'm supposed to be dialing down the carbs, but I have 4 more days left and fried chicken and fresh peach sounded delicious. 63g carbs, 55g Net carbs. Seasoned coating for chicken, green beans, broccoli slaw, poppyseed dressing, 1/2 medium fresh peach, peanut butter, of course

@jerier I am/was that person for at least one friend. For over a decade while her son was in prison and living on the streets she called at least once or twice a week crying. I was always there to listen. I used to get together with a small group of ladies and every time I tried to enter the conversation someone spoke over me. It is frustrating for sure. I, too, am at that point. I am much happier keeping to myself and ignoring everything else.
@mthomas0228 thank you.

7/26 - R47 EW 192.0
7/27 - Friday - 192.6 - Well I self sabotaged myself last night. Didnt eat my snack, got home and went to the lake basically in avoidance mode. Starving on the way home and ordered pizza deal. Ate my hunger and my feelings. Woke up super grumpy today - stressed at work. Making a conscious effort to have a better attitude than I woke up with. Late start on water intake today. Had already planned on mexican for lunch so I'm going to enjoy it, log it, and move on. Same with last night - its over and done with. Today may not be too pretty eating wise either but honestly I'm more focused on my mental health today - I know food has a direct correlation to my mood so I'll remember that while being gentle with myself today.
7/28 - Saturday - 193.4 - Made it thru the day with minimal incidence of meltdown nor did I self sabotage - I are when I was hungry and didn't when I was full. Impromptu shopping trip with my mom today. Its bound to include lunch. I'll be present in the moment and listen to those hunger cues again. Happy saturday!

@deepwoodslady How is your son doing on his journey?
@Deviette Don’t become the garbage disposal for “extra” food. That was probably my most important fact learned from Weight Watchers in 1985. I made the kids take their plates to the sink and run water over them so I wouldn’t not “waste” food by eating it myself! New mantra — Waste it, not waist it.6 -

7/28 135.0 @0500 I have been craving burnt ends from a local BBQ place. I forgot to tell them no sauce. I think this has dropped me out of nutritional ketosis. Color me sad. Why would you slather sauce on meat that has been dry rubbed and smoked and tasted awesome? The sauce is awful!6 -

7/27 157.8 I am not sure how everyone else counts their loss for a round, but I am taking today's starting weight as my ending weight for last round, which means I met my goal for the round! I have been wanting to share with all of you how much it means to me to be able to read about your progress, your stumbles, your victories and your challenges. We so often look around us and don't realize how alike we all are. I used to feel like I was the only one who struggled, everyone else had it all together. This diverse group that we are, men, women, younger and not, we are all very much alike and it really helps me to share my daily *stuff* here with you. Love you all!!
7/28 159 I know that although I have been logging I have been estimating too much. Yesterday I made the tradeoff to have a relaxed day with my son which meant eating off plan with him, necessary I think for him if that makes sense. He convinced me to buy some paint since I have a stack of canvases sitting for over a year, I love to paint but have been off that path for a while, not feeling creative. Weight gain and unconscious eating does more to me than make me fat. It takes away my creativity, my sex drive, my joy, my desire to do more, all things I am noticing now as they come back. Thanks to being inspired by @mthomas0288 and her workout challenges I signed up for a free 30 day workout and *yikes* start today. I am excited to see what the next 30 days brings, since I am realizing that weight loss alone will not give me the results I want in my body.

7/27 last night I caved. I had a double plate of dinner and a chocolate bar...or 2. I didn't exercise at all and only drank 1 liter of water. I havent been this hungry in over two weeks. What I'm trying to say is I was too scared to weigh myself this morning so I didn't. I know I should have, just to hold my self accountable but I chickened out. Well I'm jumping back in today and going to work hard to try to get whatever weight I gained yesterday off. I have noticed a 1 day a week trend where I derail, I will have to work on that, at least until I drop a good amount of weight and then I will probably reconsider the "cheat meal" idea.
7/28 --170.8 so back to my starting weight. Worked out hard yesterday and got in 1.5 liters of water. I'm impressed because my workouts are getting easier and easier from when I started...so happy about that. Last night my fiancee grabbed chips and cookies but I managed to stay away...personal win. I already feel like it's going to be a tempting weekend so I'm going to have to be extra mindful and keep up my determination. I'm also impressed because my man has been playing Pokemon go lately which means he likes to go for walks now (he hates going out and walking, grocery shopping can be a drag with him) so i have been going out and walking around more then usual..which is a plus hope everyone has a great and mindful weekend

7/28 184.4 ok I understand, I ate bad but I worked out another round of 30 day shred level 2. I cannot be stuck at 184,183 for another round, I dont know what I need to do, all I'll know is I need to change something. Well I go out of town today and return Sunday night it's going to be allot of junk food on the road 😖. My goal for this trip is to not go above 184, and I do some sort of exercise.

Ultimate Goal Weight = 129 lbs (last weighed this in 2011)
Round 48 Goal: to be in the 155's
Exercise Plan = The Betty Rocker 90 Day Challenge (in week 2 of 12), run outside 3-4 times a week, get 8,000-10,000 steps/weekday
Nutrition Plan = Continue to limit gluten, dairy, sugar, diet soda, alcohol & eat non-processed foods, protein/fruit/veg at every meal, complex carbs at breakfast and post workout meal, drink plenty of water.
07/27 - 157.2 (no change from yesterday) I had a really good exercise day yesterday! Was able to get a run in and completed the 1st week of my 90 day challenge with the day 7 exercises. Food wise, everything was on point. I'm tired today and super happy it's Friday! So looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow, although a later weigh-in may sque the number on the scale. I bought a book yesterday that was recommended by another person on a similar weight loss/fitness journey called Intuitive Eating and looking forward to diving into this book over the weekend. Welcome to everyone new to this challenge, excited to see what this round brings!
07/28 - 157.0 (down .2 from yesterday) Late weigh-in this morning and hopefully will have a late weigh-in tomorrow, so we'll see what the scale brings on Monday with a normal weigh-in time. Yesterday I completed day 8 of my 90 day challenge: Body Squat w/ 2 Knee Lift, Incline Push Ups, Alternating Reverse Lunges, Elbow Plank, 4-Point Triceps Dips, Side Step Squat w/ Bicep Curls (used dumbbells), & Bridge Lifts. My upper body is my weakest area (in terms of strength) and I put on weight here 1st and lose here last. Those 4-point triceps dips were hard!! But the sense of accomplishment after is worth all the pain of doing them! On point yesterday with nutrition, calories & macros. Today is a scheduled rest day and my plan was to do nothing, but my daughter just got invited over to a friend's house, which opens me up to be able to get outside and get a run in - Yay!

Day/Weight/Comment
7/27--No weigh in. Well. When I said this round would be hard, this wasn't what I had in mind...I went to the dermatologist Thursday afternoon to address a weird burning sensation in my upper arm. Turns out I am likely in the beginning stages of shingles(!). I am a bit young to get shingles (36) although you can really get them at any age if you've had chicken pox. The doctor writes me a note and tells me not to go back to work, go home, get in bed, and stay there all weekend. Between the extensive rest and the prescription for Valtrex, we are hoping we can stop it in its tracks. So that's what I've done. I've been in bed since Thursday afternoon. It's boring and I keep thinking about the things I had planned to do this weekend. DH reminds me that stress is one of the things that leads to shingles and I need to stop worrying about household chores because they don't matter. He has been bringing me meals in bed and I am not tracking or logging anything.
7/28--177.0 Decided to visit the scale on my way to soaking in a nice Epsom salt bath; this cheered my mood. I would have expected worse. Shingles pain, by the way, is terrible, and I am now an advocate for everybody getting the shingles vaccine. It's recommended if you're over the age of 50. I did some research on diet changes that can help/hurt a case of the shingles. I have added more chicken, orange juice, and bananas to my diet, and am avoiding chocolate, caffeine, sugar, and processed carbs. So far I don't have any blisters, although my arm is very sensitive and painful. No exercise, just bed rest. I feel like this explains a lot about the past week--why I have been feeling tired and unmotivated. These can be the very first signs of shingles. Here I was beating myself up thinking I need to get back with the program, when really I had this virus starting to attack my body.

I had shingles when I was pregnant with my now 4 year old. I was only 27 at the time. It sucks. Rest and get better but know that it’ll run its course and you’ll be back at it.no1racefan1 wrote: »Off the rails last round, lets get back on track!

I love accountability groups! Logging intake everyday is key for me.

Round 48

GW: 320
UGW: 125
7/27: 324.2 Off to a good start. Need to get back to drinking more water. I haven’t been doing that the last two days. The one thing I have found out that is working is I don’t snack after dinner anymore. I used to always get a late night snack before bed, but now I have nothing or if I do it’s a hot cup of tea. No food though. I think that helped with the high loss last round. Need to keep that trend going.
7/28: 322.2 Well, this is a total shock. I didn't track my food at all yesterday. May have injured my left Achilles the other day at the gym, so I was unable to workout yesterday. Hurt to walk. Hoping it's not serious. Anyway, not being able to workout put me in a funk all day. Grabbed Wendy's for lunch--though I did get grilled chicken sandwich. Had a healthier dinner and stuck to not having any snacks before bed so that may have helped. Going to rest this weekend then start back at the gym Monday if feeling better.

7/18: 331.2
7/19: 327.6 Well, I never expected that to happen. Incredibly surprised! Did well on my breakfast and lunch,
dinner not so much. I was so mentally and physically tired that I stopped at Wendy's on the way
home. Knew it was the wrong thing to do. I do this all the time--too tired to fix a meal so I stop for
fast food. This is where my trouble always starts. So, now that I have identified my major problem, I
have to work on the solution. After some research last night, I think meal prep on the weekend for the work
week will do wonders for me. I don't have to worry about "what to do" for dinner after a stressful day
at work. I can just come home and pop it in the oven/microwave and there I go! I will say the one
thing that is working for me is drinking water. It has gotten a lot easier to drink so much of it as
long as I put some limes in it.
7/20: 327.6 Well, no loss but I’ll take it. Did have pasta for dinner and I love my pasta! Need to work on portion size though.
7/21: 327.8 Pasta again. Love my pasta, but need to be more disciplined when it comes to portion size.
7/22: 326.8 Did really well today. Made good food choices. Need to keep with this trend.
7/23: 326.8 I’m happy about this weigh-in. Good weekend—went out with friends to a “Mary Poppins” themed tea party and then out to eat with family. Made smart choices, so I’m satisfied. Starting exercise today. See how that plays into the next weigh-in.
7/24: 326.8 First time back at the gym went pretty well. Went slow so I wouldn’t risk injury by doing too much too fast. Felt good afterwards. Then towards evening it hit me. My body screaming at me, “WHAT DID YOU DO?!!” 🤣😂 The soreness has eased up this morning. Just have to remember that it will get better. The more exercise I do, the better I’ll feel.
7/25: 325.6 Nice to see some moment after three days sitting at the same weight. I’m actually looking forward to seeing the final numbers at the end of this challenge. It’s my first time doing this and I have to say having the support of this community along with keeping myself honest with check-ins and food tracking has helped a great deal.
7/26: 324.6 This has been a great experience. I’ve never been excited about getting healthy before. I’d always start off great then just give up if I had a rough couple of days. The difference this time has been this community. The encouragement and support has made all the difference in the world. Reading about your journeys has made me realize there is no quick fix. This isn’t just another diet. This is a lifestyle change. I am becoming the person I was meant to be. Yes, there will be bad days. That’s just life. I need to acknowledge that then let it go and start anew the very next day with a clean slate instead of bogged down in quilt. I want to thank everyone here for their support. This round starting weight was 333.0 and as of this morning I am at 324.6. I hit my goal and then some. I looking forward to the next round!13 -
ROUND 6 FOR ME - Female 58 yrs old 5’ 5” Midwest USA Original starting weight 235 on 1/11/18
………We are fierce and so we fight………
Goals: 1. To be an inspiration to my 22 year old Autistic son who started his weight loss journey on May 1, 2018 weighing 308.4 . (He weighs in about once per week)
2. 3 lb loss to land at 183.8 or less for myself
3. No Bingeing
4. No “cheat days” only “Earn days”. No “Earn Days” only “Earn Meals” which are much easier to bounce back from.
5. 10,000 steps per day. Mixed modes of exercise.
6. Lots of water, green tea daily, apple cider vinegar before carby meals.
7. Check my blood sugar daily for improvements.
My Stats:
R43 SW= 193.8 EW= 195.6 +1.8 lbs Gain
R44 SW= 195.6 EW= 192.4 - 3.2 lbs Loss
R45 SW= 192.4 EW= 191.4 - 1.0 lbs Loss
R46 SW= 191.4 EW= 186.0 - 4.4 lbs Loss
R47 SW= 186.0 EW= 186.8 +0.8 lbs Gain
R48 SW= 186.8 EW= TBD
Day/Weight/Comment
7/27 188.4 Self Sabotage during and after a night out with friends yesterday. My own fault, no excuses. Ate 166 Net Carbs, 1972 Calories In / 2675 Out. 11 of 13 step hours (250) on fitbit. Walked 3.98 miles with 9,393 steps. Did great today so tomorrow’s stats should be much better. Socializing makes it tough!
7/28 186.0 whoosh…, high sodium and water weight gone for good along with doubts and self-sabotage. It was a good day yesterday. I worked hard to make up for my social night out. I ate 19 Net Carbs. 1192 Calories In / 3089 Calories Out. 13/13 fitbit steps (250). Blood sugar 126 before meal test (still suffering a bit from day before). Brisk 3 mile walk at school track. Day’s total was 16,625 steps and a total of 7.03 miles for the day. Best victory was that I made good healthy choices in my meals all day (not just stayed in my macros). I did indulge in that 90% Lindt chocolate, but it kept my cravings curbed as well as serves as an antioxidant. An overall very successful day.
