    Add me in please. I know it's the end of July but I lost 40 lbs. in 2015. Found out in Oct. '15 that I had brain cancer. I have gained 30 lbs. back. Have been doing MFP most of this year, just not consistently.

    Highest weight: 250 (07/11/18)
    Challenge starting weight: 210.0 (12/31/18)
    Goal weight: 150
    Current weight: 191.4 (08/03/2019)
    Total weight lost: 58.6
    Challenge weight loss: 18.6

    This week's successes: Slowly getting back on track.

    This week's challenges: I gained 10 pounds in July. (Stress eating my way through a month of grad school.) I've lost half of them but I'm still working on the rest. It's been hard to rally. It's been 1 year since I started getting healthy and I had hoped to have lost 100 pounds by now. But due to the July gains, I'm only at 58.6. Which is still a good loss overall but not where I wanted to be and I'm way behind on the loss for this challenge. This is usually the point that I would throw in the towel but I really want to get back on track and keep getting healthier.

    Total weight lost: 34.1 kgs / 75 lbs / 28.5 %

    Challenges: For the last 1.5 weeks my weight has been bouncing up and down each day, gaining and losing the same 0.7kg / 1.5lbs, and of particular annoyance is that my BMI is moving back and forth between the "obese" category and the "overweight" category - I really want to stay below that line!

    This week I've eaten way more chocolate than normal. It has been 70% dark chocolate (not as much sugar or carbs as other chocolate), and in one case tried a dark sugar-free chocolate (not as nice), and it's nothing like how much I used to eat when we bought chocolate - but it is kind of slipping in my habits.

    Successes: Pretty good with my eating & IF, have gotten in a lot more walking this week, and some mindfulness.

    As a late joining member to this group, I’m only 4 weeks into this challenge and I’ve lost 5 pounds. I’m on pace to lose 23 pounds in the last 23 months of this year. However, I should be banking up easy pounds in these early times of my challenge. I’m still lacking the dedication to keto to keep me in ketosis. I get lazy and give in too easy to old Non-keto ways that keep me teetering on the brink of ketosis. Next week my goal is to get into full on ketosis, then stay there the whole week.

    Aug 5 - 85.5 kgs / 188.5 lbs - week 27 loss 0.4kg / 0.9 lbs
    Aug 12 -83.8 kgs / 184.8 lbs - week 28 loss 1.7kg /3.7 lbs
    Total weight lost: 35.7 kgs / 78.7 lbs / 29.9 %

    Successes: A great week, lost 1.7kg (3.7 lbs). Was pretty good with my eating & IF, have gotten in a lot more walking this week.

    Challenges: Had an all-day workshop with catered lunch and drinks afterwards. I decided it was easier to fast for lunch than negotiate the standard high-carb choices (I eat low-carb, wholefoods), but I did have two glasses of wine at drinks after the workshop (first time I've had alcohol in 8 months!). I wasn't sure if this would affect my weight, but it didn't seem to do any damage.

    Continuing to drop ever so slowly. Combination of diet change and supplement recommended by my internist for cholesterol. Hope it works to bring that high LDL number down.

    I ran a full 13.11 miles this week! Time was 3:11. Now I know I can do my official half marathon in Jan. Working on getting the time down to under 3 hours now. I run slow, but it is running.

    I am still at it. I managed to lose 30lbs then stalled. I still have 20ish to go. How often are you weighing in?
