I hadn't heard about that.
Also - for anyone who's posted pet pictures.......are you doing that via the MFP app on your phone or on your computer? I've seen a cat in a window, a cat in a lap, and a dog in a bed. My cat has been jumping from box to box and just sitting there. He's so cute! Wish I could share.

Second round for me. 51; Mum of 2 grown boys; wife of 1 husband:) Living in San Diego, originally from Zimbabwe and 4 years in Zambia.
Round 66
Interim goal:- 166 or less
Next big goal:- 164 - into 'just fat' and out of obese on the BMI scale
Final goal:- 134
Track every day. Walk every day if I can - it's not hard on my body, so there are no excuses.
Make good food choices, plan my meals and grocery shopping.
01/23 169 Walked 70 mins treadmill. Field trip, exhausted. Within calories but made brownies for a work birthday so calories were not good
01/24 169 Rest day, tired
01/25 169 Holding steady. 60 mins treadmill, calories within limit and tracked.
01/26 167.2 walked 90 mins on trails. Calories good choices except 2 glasses red wine
It's the weekend!
01/27 167.6 Walked again on trails, beautiful weather.
01/28 167.6 Walked on treadmill, calories not tracked yet but should be good.
01/29 167.6 Rest day, tired this morning. Still got in 10 000 steps at work. Within calories and just busy making balsamic veggie pasta for school lunches.
01/30 167.8 Walked 80mins treadmill. Not making good food choices, but still within calories. Tracking daily, becoming a habit now, great! Really wanted to be 166 this round, but doesn't look like it.

trying to not let the back injury on 1/11 at work get to me
1/1 174
1/24 172.2 13 waters,10 min shoveling
1/25 172.2 14 waters, closer to calorie goal, retaining water still due to birthday celebrating that was days and my back injury
1/26 169.6 14 waters, within calorie goal, did some stretching, got enough potassium in, back improving
1/27 168.8 14 cups of water
1/28 168.6
1/29 not going to print out the weight today as there is a definite sodium and extra food inflation. Want to stay positive. May not put it in until it is better. Will drink more water tomorrow. Put a day together that is a let down day that is not IF, but in calories, so I can use when need a break. It is higher in sodium unless I can figure out how to do it better. Let's face it--I am around 800 mg a day in sodium daily and a couple 100 extra or more packs a serious inflation immediately, lol. I don't have this part down yet.....:). I did do some light, very light, snow shoveling. Tomorrow will be some more, but a bigger amount. My back is resisting some, so trying to go slow and easy. Needs to be done before work. Have to start early.
1/30 Didn't weigh. No time and didn't want to be possibly disappointed. Anyways did shovel for 40 minutes before work. Did great on calories. Drank a lot of water.

Ready for round 3
OSW 88KG (-3.8kg) or {8.4lbs}
RSW 84.2kg
Goal... Less than I started!
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 84.3kg not a great start but this is my 3rd week in Keto and everything I've read says it's normal and just keep going. Couldn't run this morning as it's been raining for 48 hours and everywhere is under water.
01/24 84.2kg and it stopped raining so I ran.
01/25 83.7kg and a short morning run. It's all green for go today!
01/26 83.2kg is working still. Staying green for calories and within my Keto macros. Will do the strength training today
01/27 83.0kg was sick last night so I went to bed at 6pm without dinner. No idea how this will affect future weight loss! But is officially 3 weeks today and I'm down 5kg (11 lbs) total.
01/28 83.7kg so that's the difference between eating and not! Ran 2.5km and stayed within my new macros yesterday
01/29 83.2kg but scale being weird again so I took the highest. Worked late last night so no other exercise but will be back on it today. Stayed in the green for calories and new macros.
01/30 83.3kg after my morning run. 4km - longest run since before Christmas and I managed to get slightly faster each km. All staying green so it will come off.
01/31 83.1kg still keeping it all in the green and being patient.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 58.6 kg Feeling good and excited to start this round. Completed a 30 min run this morning, and have all my meals packed at work and logged
01/24 57.9 kg The rest of yesterday was good; stayed within my calorie goal, had loads of water and went to bed early. This morning's weight is a big drop from yesterday, so I doubt it will stick around, but it is definitely motivation to stay on track today No run this morning but will try get to gym this afternoon. We are having dinner at my mil's which always causes some anxiety because her food is incredible but often buttered/crumbed/sauced/etc. Will try and be mindful of what I dish up.
01/25 57.7 kg Yesterday was good. Went to gym as planned and had a great upper body weight lifting session, plus ended up not going to the mil so had a small dinner at home. I am surprised to see the 57's sticking around but I expect that to change over the weekend as I find it almost impossible to stay on track when the week is over
Also completed a 30 minute run this morning 
01/26 57.9 kg I felt very peckish and hungry yesterday and had a late dinner of take-out and wine with hubby and his mom last night. Honestly thought I would see a bigger jump than just the .2 kg. I'll take it though! We ordered bulk groceries that will be delivered today and I am planning to do ALL of the meal prep as I watched a couple of great meal prep inspo videos I am keen to try out Also have a braai (almost like a bbq for anyone who doesn't know ) this evening with friends from Australia. Will try be mindful. Also rest day from gym today.
01/27 58.9 kg Couldn't login to comment but did weigh in.
01/28 59 kg This always happens on weekends and I am struggling so much to control it. While I didn't go completely overboard I ate a bunch of trigger foods for my IBS and the result is bloat and sadness. I was getting so excited about the 57's sticking around I ended up doing meal prep for a bunch of meals this week so hoping to end this round on a good note, and will, as always, try be better over the weekend. Weakend it is for sure!
01/29 58.5 kg Going in the right direction again My tummy was still not fully recovered yesterday but regardless I did a 30 min run in the morning and strength training in the evening. Food was on point and had loads of water. Also did a 30 min run this morning and have all my meals prepped for the day. Feeling positive! 
01/30 57.9 kg Yay back in the 57's! Let's see if I can keep it there this time Food and water were both great and had a good strength training sesh yesterday afternoon and a 30 min run this morning. Tummy is feeling much better, only took me 3 days.. 
01/31 57.4 kg Is this real?! I guess 1 kg (2.2 pounds) loss in a week and a half is possible but I feel like I haven’t been that strict diet wise. Maybe it’s the significant increase in activity, but I’m worried I’m just bouncing up and down because of more or less water retention. I guess I’ll believe it if it sticks around for two or three days, but the weekend is coming up and y’all know what that means! No run this morning due to resting, but will get to the gym this afternoon.

Can’t wait to smash out round 66! Good luck everyone!
Round 65 SW245.8 EW 238.6 WL 7.2lbs
First major goal - get under 226lbs and only be obese rather than morbidly obese.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 238.4 eating and exercise were good this morning. Have my couch to 5k W2 D3 run tonight. It’s freezing in London!
01/24 237.6 Finished my run last night at did 3.3 km. It may be running and walking but it makes me feel so good! Ate really well and feel like I have so much more energy! It must actually be quite annoying!
01/25 237.4 didn’t walk as much yesterday so this is expected. Going out for an annual get together with friends today and going to enjoy it and not worry about weight. Life is about balance after all. Happy Friday everyone!
01/26 239.8 went for my run. Then had a fabulous meal and drinks with friends. Am I surprised by how much the scale has gone up? Slightly. Do I regret it? Not for one second. Best food I’ve had in ages and the company was superb. I’m sure a lot of it is water weight and tomorrow will probably reflect that.
01/27 239.8 Hmph was expecting this to be lower but maybe my body is still recovering after all the drinks. Onwards and downwards
01/28 238.6 and woosh the salt must be out of my body and getting back to where i was. Ate well yesterday but can’t say much for my exercise apart from the run in the morning. Back to work today. For some reason I find it so much easier when I have a routine.
01/29 235.8 ok someone pinch me. I stood on the scales 4 times and it said the same every time. I haven’t changed my diet or exercise. Maybe the cheat meal made me retain water for longer...regardless I’m so happy. 😎🏃🏼♀️💪😃
01/30 234.2. Holly bananas. What is happening, not that I am complaining. I suppose I have upped my walking. Food is good too and finally not craving sweet stuff after my cheat meal. Tomorrow will be my 1 month anniversary. Happy hump day!
01/31 234.2 it stuck! I will take that. Thought for sure it would shoot back up.
Food and exercise on point but due on tomorrow so will see what happens.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 - 185lbs - up a little from yesterday. Not surprising as didn't poop yesterday (tmi sorry, but it definitely plays a part). Ate well and drank lots so expect a drop tomorrow
01/24 - 184lbs - yay! As I expected. Things are going in the right direction again. Ate well and drank lots yesterday
01/25 - 184lbs - I thought this would drop. I ate well yesterday, logged everything, drank plenty etc. But I am now full of cold and full of snot, so maybe I'm retaining water due to that? Who knows?!
01/26 - 183.4lbs - had a lovely lie in this morning, so a later weigh in. So don't quite tryst this until I see it for a second time. DH got up with DD at 6 so I could have a rest. Was well needed and appreciated. Now to start the day
01/27 - 183lbs - huh. It stuck! Well that's great!! Yay! Stuck to calories yesterday, but didn't drink enough for sure. Got plenty of steps in though. Today is swimming with DD and then to MILs house for the day
She's a great cook, but not the healthiest lol
01/28 - 182.8lbs - Wahoo! Feeling good about this. I stuck to calorie goal yesterday, and didn't go overboard at MILs! Official weekly weigh in day today and I am 3.4lbs down on last week. Wahoo! Also, my cold has cleared. So, yay! X
01/29 - 182.6lbs - Still going in the right direction. Yes! Hit 10,000 steps yesterday, drank loads, stuck to calorie goal.
01/30 - 182.2lbs - Well this is a surprise. Had a nasty comment from a colleague about my weight yesterday and it really upset me. So I had McDonald's for dinner. I was over calorie goal, but I think still in a deficit. Still, it's high in salt, so I might pay for this tomorrow instead.
01/31 - 182.4lbs - I expect this is the after effect of the McDonald's lol. Could be worse. And I over slept this morning so am now in a rush. Whoops. Thanks for the kind words Beth, my other colleagues are all lovely and gave me lots of support.

Previous daysWed 01/23 70.8 (+0.3) no yoga in the morning, treadmill walk and short run done (35mins, around 5.5km)
So yesterday got slightly out of hand after some work frustrations. I asked a friend to come over for a glass of wine and we had a few glasses, snacks and stayed up waaaay too late. So i didn't have time for yoga this morning, but made time to pack health breakfast, lunch and snacks. I also packed my gym gear and will do at least 30mins of walking on the treadmill, there is no excuse not to do that - aim for what's achievable
This is my last week in the gym here, next week's evenings will be spend with DH and not the treadmill
Thu 01/24 71.4 (+0.6) yoga & treadmill run&walk (70mins, 50 running, 10km)
All my own fault, I was very hungry after that wine on Tue and had to work late after I got home, so of course I told myself I deserved snacks, which were left over from Tue.
shunggie, bethe238, afti50 and abowersgirl (links taken off) you know, last night, when I was guiltily enjoying my snacks and didn't log everything, I thought 'maybe this calorie counting just isn't for me. I've been doing it since May and don't have much to show for'. And then I read your posts and encouragement and realised that it is hard and if I hadn't been here, I probably would have gained more than I have lost, exercised less and just been annoyed with myself. So thank you for reminding me that it is worth it, however slowly. Your journeys are inspiring!
Fri 01/25 70.9 (-0.5) yoga
Alright, this is my last weekend that i'll be logging for about 3 weeks and I feel like it might not happen and that's ok. After the lovely comments I received, I had a talk with myself and realised a few things: Last time I spent 3 months in southern Africa, I gained around 10 kilos - I was 15 years younger. This time, I didn't gain anything apart from a wealth of experiences, new confidence in myself as a person and professionally, more love for my husband (this is the longest we've ever been apart), more appreciation for regular yoga practice and treadmill running, and many new low-medium recipes cooked very quickly with causing as little washing up as possible. I also met and reconnected with many lovely people, both in person and online.
Now, to my progress, I really need to change my eating patterns. It's not even that I'm very unhealthy, but I "spend" 500-700cals on snacks&fruit every day instead of proper meals. I love grazing throughout the day and then also at night. Basically, I could just eat snacks and no proper meals exclusively. I have changed chocolate bars and cookies (with some exceptions) for fruit, nuts, popcorn over the last year or so, but it's still too much, the cals add up so quickly. I don't know how to change my mindset that those snacks are a reward or fuel for "hard" work (desk work), but I'll keep trying. I've changed my goal to only 0.25kg loss per week to match my sedentary lifestyle here and am on 1510cals/day, but I mostly eat 1700-1900 in the week and probably more most weekends. That may explain my lack of proper downward progress, I should just admit that I'm currently in maintenance and accept that. Any exercise I do just ensures that I don't have serious gains and keep my mind balanced.
Wow, sorry for the long post, so many revelations and realisations this morning.
Sat 01/26 71.1 (+0.2) yoga done, treadmill planned
I had a snack feast last night and it was great! Skipped the gym, evening plans changed, so I stayed home with some work, wine, sweets and a few episodes.
bethe238 thank you. My husband will be here with me for 3 weeks and we'll be out most evenings next week and then on holiday (mostly safari lodges) for 2 weeks. Logging only guesstimates makes no sense to me for such a long time, so I rather jump back on the waggon afterwards.
Sun 01/27 dnw
DH arrives (in the middle of night to Mon)
Today is the day! Well technically tomorrow morning, so I still have half a day to get through. No exercise or logging as i'm hung over after a fun night with drinks and dancing and great people til the small hours.
Still have to do some work once my brain gets back into working order. No regrets and I could not be happier to see my love again in around 12 hours.
Mon 01/28 72kg (+0.9) No yoga, no run
No surprise, ate all the things yesterday, plus little sleep, the whole week actually. Anyway, DH is here, yay!!!! Diet isn't my main focus for this week and until the end of the round. Most important is that I finish my work this Friday. I'll weigh, but will not worry about the number. Oooh and I will be able to set up my fitbit tonight - just after reading an article that calorie estimates for walking are wrong by up to 50%
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-47013454
Tue 01/29 72kg (+/-0.0) yoga done
Super tired yesterday, went out for lunch (turkish) and dinner (steak) for a lovely date night and the decision to take the job I was offered, which means moving to the Netherlands in March! But we'll do our own, very soft Brexit.
More eating out today, lunch with a colleague and not sure what dinner will be.
Last night, I set up my fitbit, yay! I won't have much activity the next three weeks, but wanted to start using it anyway. I'm really looking forward to adding lots of activity when back home. Add me if you like, i know some of you had shared their details before, i'll look for them this week. My username is the same as here, FrauKazi.
Wed 01/30 71.6 (-0.4) yoga done
No car so actually got 10,000+steps. But also went out for lunch and dinner. I think that's how it's gonna be for this week.
Thu 01/31 71.6 (+/-0.0) no yoga
Out last night with drinks, great fun. Tomorrow is finally the last work day, I cannot wait, but also mixed feelings as I am finally leaving my organisation after almost 6 years. Fri and Sat I have to pack up my flat as we're starting our holiday on Sunday and won't be returning to this place.
I have not caught up on your posts and look forward to doing this once I have time to relax 10 -

01/23-216.2- yesterday finished at just under 1700cals, I'm happy with that.
01/24-217.4- not so good yesterday, was tempted to not log but I did. I will be having a low cal day today. I have to remind myself that one day does not take away my successes for the last few weeks, according to Fitbit I have still come away with a deficit from it anyway...so why do I feel so guilty and de-motivated?x
01/25- 215.8- 1350cals yesterday. I'm going to get out in the drizzle in a minute and walk the dog and then Iv got plenty of housework to crack on with. My 1 year old has been very fussy the last few days and nights due to not feeling very well with a nasty cold, I'm feeling a little worn down and tired. Today is going to be a good day, weigh in with the family tomorrow and it would be nice to lose something X
01/26- 215.2- 840cals so a little over fasting calories but still way under maintenance and just over 17,000steps! Weigh in today with the family X
01/27- 216.4
01/28- 213.2- I was shocked to see this number this morning as we went out for a late lunch, early dinner yesterday to TGI Friday's and there was wine involved, hopefully it will stick around. Been doing plenty of walking and today's a low cal day X
01/29- 215.0- ahh drats. Yesterday was a good day, ate a little above fasting cals but did 15500steps. I'm about to do a weekly shop, I just couldn't sleep last night so had time to plan the next weeks food, now I've just got to stick to the plan!x
01/30- 214.2lb- did well yday, 1400 cals
01/31- 213.2- cals under maintenance yday but not a fast day like I'd planned, doing it today instead X

Round 65 -|- End Goal: < 166
22/01: 165.6: Goals Aw, well! I was sitting in meetings all day and into the evening, so I'm very pleased with my end weight. My mean weight is back down to what it was at the beginning of December. My smart scale app informs me that I will reach my goal weight 2 weeks before my birthday in April. Now, that would be a great Birthday present.
Round 66 ~|~ End Goal: < 165
23/01: 165.6: Goals ✅ Went grocery shopping am, then Playreading after lunch. Lots of walking and stayed on track.
24/01: 165.6: Goals ✅ Spent the day organising my craft materials and fitted in lots of exercise.
25/01: 165.5: Goals ✅ Had a very good induction at the gym for my 10 week Boditrax course. I'm feeling the burn. My metabolic age is 7 years less than my chronological age! Everything else was either in the green range or just out of it so I am hoping to get them all into the green by the end of the course.
26/01: 165.3: Goals ✅ Lots of exercise, as we were going out for dinner with family. Stayed well under goal.
27/01: 165.4: Goals ✅ Gippy tummy from the rich food last night, even though I made good choices. I think it was the dessert which was a compote if dried fruit. Much too much sugar. Ate very simply today.
28/01: 165.3: Goals ✅ Gym session first thing, and walked home part of the way. Happy that there was no weekend upswing to speak of.
29/01: 165.2: Goals ✅ Several outdoor walks, a cardio session, and short strength/flex workouts.
30/01: 165.2: Goals ✅ Cardio and strength at the gym seems to be paying off. I've increased my protein a little to aid muscle toning. 👍🏻 After a week, it does appear to be working. Delighted that weight is still creeping down.
31/01: 165.0: Goals ✅ 😍 I saw 164 flash on the scale but it settled on this. I'll take it.
01/01: xxx: Goals
THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

New here, hoping a 10 day challenge will keep me on track, usually I give up because I have a bad day or two and don't want to log. Based in the UK.
SW on 01/18: 326lbs
GW: 234lbs (temp goal)
CW: 324lbs ish.
My goal is to be under 322 by the end of January as that's down to the round stone. Under would be nice but I'm not aiming lower.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23: 323.5lbs (-0.5) - my scale does 1/4lb increments. Weighed after breakfast instead of before, but I doubt it'll change much.
01/24: 321.75lbs (-1.75) - I suspect most of the drop is water, which I may need to regain. Still recovering from a bad stomach flu, so I'll just see how this settles.
01/25: 322.25lbs (+0.5) - I ate at my calorie goal yesterday, thought this would go up more. Think I'm whooshing a bit just being early on in the process, need to not get discouraged if I stall for a week or 2 due to it later on. Writing it down so I remember!
01/26: 321.5lbs (-0.75) - Quite happy with where I seem to roughly be sitting.
01/27: 320.25lbs (-1.25) - Still seem to be wooshing. Hard to not like it, I think when it tapers off will be the hard part. And I indulged in a lot of camembert and bread yesterday, I thought this may be quite bad today, even though I came in about 300 calories under target (total deficit of 800). The daily changes are very interesting.
01/28: 322.5lbs (+2.25) - Up a bit, I'm not worried, still puts me at about a 1.5lb loss since my last weigh in (I've left mine on the Monday default). Which is about right for fat loss. Woke up with my back very painful today, I have my suspicions it's not a coincidence. Hard part was getting proper breakfast instead of uhealthy snacks. I compromised with a couple of cookies. I know food won't actually fix the pain, and in the long run is causing it!
01/29: 324lbs (+1.5) - Bit annoying, I suspect getting up earlier has it up a bit (seems to keep going down until about midday), had gravy yesterday which is high in sodium, and most importantly my digestive system is still struggling to settle into a routine. I know though that I've stuck to my calorie goals and I will lose weight with time! There's a time this would've made me give up, now I'm sure keeping going is the only way to go.
01/30: 322.5lbs (-1.5) - Think it'll be lower tomorrow again.
01/31: 321.5 (-1) - Happy with this. Did more general movement yesterday playing with my toddler nephew, babysat for a while. Fun day!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 - 190.1 - I stayed low carb all day yesterday and I’m on the right track for today so far!
01/24 - 189 - Headed in the right direction. I had a very stressful day and I really wanted to eat the stress away with carbs, but I didn’t. I wasn’t perfect on eating no carbs, but in the past I would have said screw it and gotten something sweet when I was stressed. I’m really trying to clean up my relationship with food, especially carbs.
01/25 - 188.6 - Still headed in the right direction. I woke up feeling dehydrated and swollen. Hopefully I got enough water today. I had a glass of wine after work today, but carbs were low otherwise so maybe I’ll still stay under carbs today.
01/26 - 187.3 - I have been doing really well with my low carb goal. I am hoping to get back to exercising this weekend, so I might go up a little in weight but it’ll be worth it.
01/27 - 186.5 - This is the lowest I’ve been in a couple of months. I’m expecting a slow down in the next couple days because this was all water weight. I’m ok with that though. As long as the trend overall keep going down, I’ll be happy.
01/28 - 188.4 - Two pounds of water added back on in one night. I was really craving buffalo wings so I got them. I also got a salad and ate some of the homemade bread that comes with it. I could tell last night that I was retaining water. I’ll be sure to drink lots of water today and keep the carbs down. We’ll see what tomorrow brings.
01/29 - 187 - Headed in the right direction again. I almost said screw it yesterday and started the “I’ll start back up tomorrow” game. I held strong though! I got some low carb snacks and enjoyed those rather than getting completely derailed. Small victories
01/30 - 186.6 - I’m happy that I’m still moving in the right direction. I will have to start tracking next round if I want to keep losing weight so I’m trying to start the habit over the next few days.
01/31 - 186.5 - I went for a walk after work yesterday with a co-worker and tracked all of my food yesterday. I've already tracked half of my food for today. I don't have anything planned for dinner, so I'm going to have to be strong when I stop to get something to cook for dinner tonight.

I hit my “goal weight” around late November. I’ve managed to maintain around this weight since then. What I have realized though, is that I don’t think I would’ve been able to maintain without the daily accountability of this challenge. Thank you to @Grandmajackie and all of you contributors for the daily insights and commiseration. It makes all the difference in being successful at weight loss this time.End R40: 171 (-3)R66 SW: 145.5

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 - 145 – Back down again. I don’t have any real temptations (except for the full jar of candy bars at our office front desk) until this weekend. I’d like to drop a little before the weekend hits.
01/24 – 145 – I’ve done pretty well sticking to weight loss calories this week, so I’m hoping to see a little drop tomorrow.
01/25 – 145 – My husband and I have to grab carry out for supper tonight (we’re doing a lot of running around) so since I haven’t lost anything the past couple days, I’ll forego my favorite dish from the restaurant and order the healthier, lighter version.
01/26 – 144 – I’m a little surprised to see this because although I stayed within calories, we ate pretty late and I indulged in a shot of blackberry brandy to chase away the sub-zero wind chills we dealt with yesterday. @deepwoodslady and several others inspired me to shout a few dance tunes from the 80’s to my Alexa Echo and I danced around my kitchen for about 10 minutes while my husband showered. Maybe that’s what did it?
01/27– 144.5 – Today is my only day off and we have more running around to do today. Due to several issues going on right now, I’m going to do my best to stay within weight loss calories, but there will be a lot of eating on the run today.
01/28 – 145 – I made pretty good food choices yesterday, so the weekend fallout isn’t too bad compared to last week.
01/29 – 144 – I’m so glad to see this number on a Tuesday! I hope I can make it stick the rest of the week. I’ve been good avoiding all the tax season goodies that have come in the past week and are sitting on our lunch table. Here in NE Ohio we are preparing too for the -30 to -40 windchills over the next few days. I hope everyone else dealing with this stays safe!
01/30 – 144 – Holding steady. I had a very stressful event happen at work yesterday and my mind wandered to the jar of candy bars sitting on the front desk. Being mindful of the advice I’ve learned on this challenge, I told myself that a candy bar was not going to solve the issue and I really didn’t want it, I just wanted the distraction. So I took a long walk around the office instead. I will admit though, that I had a little extra wine after supper last night, but I kept it within my calories and it was worth it.
01/31 – 145 – Oh well, I stayed within calories yesterday, but I didn’t drink enough water and I had a lean pocket for lunch. It seems that when I eat processed foods, whether within calories or not, my body likes to retain water. I packed a healthier lunch today and will hopefully be down before the weekend.

You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. - John C. Maxwell
My goal for 2019 is to get into ONEderland. Changing my life.
Plans:
- Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target 70k steps per week
- Drink more water (target min 64 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
- Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP)
- Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
- Drink less alcohol (4 AF days per week; ~16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

Round 66: My focus is not breaking my tracking streak since 12/28 and being active every day in some way shape or form! Get up out of the chair from work, reading or tv and MOVE! Retiring Jan 31! Goal is to break into the next decade and make it stick.
1/23 - 240.9 - Last couple of days focused on water and staying within my calorie goal. Using Apple watch to remind me to get up from the desk chair and move each hour in addition to the daily walk.
1/24 - 239.6 - A new decade!!! Remember to never ever return to the 40s … you don’t like it there.
Recumbent bike indoors 20 min when raining. Frustrating day brother/sister inlaws ended with DH & I out for Italian & wine. Never a good thing but the food is tracked and now moving forward.
1/25 - 240.7 - I saw the 30s but it was touch and go! Work celebration and enjoyed chips & guac though no alcohol. Not enough water or exercise. Did walk down 6 flights of stairs at work instead of using elevator.
1/26 - No scale @ hotel. Planned hike 3 miles with my son & his Fiancee to Mount Bonnel then Bull Creek. Today’s total steps 14741! Always left half my food on plate at restaurants.
1/27 - No scale @ hotel. Walked with DH 3.5 miles to breakfast before long car ride.
1/28 - 239.1 - Got out of the 40s! Proud of my better eating & exercise habits when out of town dining out every meal this weekend! I was determined to leave the 40s behind for my official Monday WI.
1/29 - 239.1 - It stayed out of the 40s 2 days in a row!!! Frustrating day yesterday not getting out of my chair at work (last day with my computer for people to ask questions or obtain my files before retirement) and interactions with my sister in-law. Win is that I did not snack when stressed!
1/30 - 239.9 - Barely but still out of the 40s! A few walks each over a mile. Dining Out group and stuck to my preplanning. Tons of water. No snacking. Today's challenge is my work retirement party at a mexican restaurant ... deciding on my strategy.
1/31 - 239.1 - I'm starting to like this familiar number. Salty chicken soup at the mexican restaurant yesterday and of course too many chips but otherwise a good day. Could have done better on the exercise.

Lost down to 180 doing lazy keto last spring, but the summer vacations came and then the holidays
and I put all of the weight back on. I am going to be consistant with tracking my food...good or bad...and
get healthier this year.
Starting weight on 1/9/19 203
Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 198.8
01/24 198.6 Started IBIH soup diet yesterday. Usually go up a pound after day 1...so I'll take it!
01/25 197.6 1 pound down! I ate between 5 pm and 6:30 pm. Stuck strickly to the plan and drank lots of water.
13,000 steps. Just going to keep plugging along.
01/26 197.4 Well..at least it's going down, if only slightly. Had a rough day at work and had 2 glasses of wine last
night. 13,000 steps logged yesterday. Going to do my HIT workout today and go for a 3 mile walk.
01/27 196.4 Going down...I like it! Did my 3 mile walk, but did not do my weights. Going to brunch with family. Will make smart choices.
01/28 197.8 ugg...walked 6 miles yesterday and worked out with weights. My food was on track, but water was under. I'll just keep plugging on!
01/29 197.6 NSV..yesterday was Teacher Appreciation day. I walked in to free Chcik fil a in the teacher's lounge, a cart of donuts wheeled to my classroom and a luncheon. I just had a half a chicken breast and some lettuce and veggies at the luncheon and resisted all of the other treats.
I kept tp my plan in the evening and walked 11,000 steps. Not much scale movement, but I'm sure it will come.
01/30 196.4 Hoping this downward trend will continue!

trying to not let the back injury on 1/11 at work get to me
1/1 174
1/24 172.2 13 waters,10 min shoveling
1/25 172.2 14 waters, closer to calorie goal, retaining water still due to birthday celebrating that was days and my back injury
1/26 169.6 14 waters, within calorie goal, did some stretching, got enough potassium in, back improving
1/27 168.8 14 cups of water
1/28 168.6
1/29 not going to print out the weight today as there is a definite sodium and extra food inflation. Want to stay positive. May not put it in until it is better. Will drink more water tomorrow. Put a day together that is a let down day that is not IF, but in calories, so I can use when need a break. It is higher in sodium unless I can figure out how to do it better. Let's face it--I am around 800 mg a day in sodium daily and a couple 100 extra or more packs a serious inflation immediately, lol. I don't have this part down yet.....:). I did do some light, very light, snow shoveling. Tomorrow will be some more, but a bigger amount. My back is resisting some, so trying to go slow and easy. Needs to be done before work. Have to start early.
1/30 Didn't weigh. No time and didn't want to be possibly disappointed. Anyways did shovel for 40 minutes before work. Did great on calories. Drank a lot of water.
1/31 170 coming back down

Female, 5’5”, age 25.
SW: 154 (26th Sept 18)
GW: 119 (approx. depending on look)
Jan GW: 130
I usually measure in stone and just convert that to pounds for the site, however I’ll be switching my scale to pounds so I can get the oz reading each day.
01/22 – 132lb (pre-scale change)
Day/Weight/Comment01/23 -131.8 (Been 9st 6lb for a few days so don't know rate the oz's have dropped. Will be interesting to see)01/30 – 129 (So it did stick. Making a lasagne with keto pasta and garlic bread today. Done the lasagne before, the bread is a first- but not first bread recipe. Side of baby spinach. I planned it for this day as there will be leftovers for my mother to have on Friday. I’m going out with a friend to see the latest ‘how to train your dragon’ movie. So excited. )
01/24 -132.2 (Had quite a bit of salt yesterday, so may be water retention.)
01/25 -131.4 (That's better. So that would mean I'm 9st 5lb now right? Had real tasty food yesterday. Pork
tenderloin stuffed with garlic, kale, mushrooms and chorizo. Served with wild mushroom gravy and veggie mash, for lunch. Keto crème brûlée for desert. Then had a mini omelette (mushroom, bacon, bell pepper) with guacamole for dinner. Satisfying day
)
01/26 -131.4 (Had a nice massage yesterday. Late birthday treat. They had a lot of sugary snacks on hand in the waiting area. Biscuits being offered, chocolates on the table, gummy sweets to the side; It was a challenge to resist free offerings. Then when I had a cup of tea, 2 little biscuits with dark chocolate and coconut covering were served beside it. Warred with myself for 5mins before I ended up having them. After searching for them online, 2 of them come to 7g carbs. So much for such small biscuits. But I was able to resit asking for more or going 'oh well might as well splurge now and have that chocolate too'. I managed to keep to my carb limits for the day.)
01/27 - 130.8 (Surprising, considering I snacked on some nuts late last night. Stressful time with my 6 months old nephew as he has a cold and wouldn't stay asleep for long. Sister out for the night with friends. )
01/28 -130.6
01/29 - 129(Don't know how it dropped that much haha. Doubt it will stick.)
01/31 – 130 (???. Didn’t have nearly enough water yesterday, maybe that’s it? Or maybe the 129 was a double fluke.)

Round 64 SW 187.8 EW 186.8 (-1.0)
Round 65 SW 185.6 EW 186.8 (+1.0)
Round 65 SW 186.8
Goal this round: finish at below 183.x
01/22 well I didn't weigh bc I was afraid to get on the scale after vacation, flying, and airport food!
01/23 186.8 only up one lb from vacation, so I consider it a win. I had a hard time getting back in the groove yesterday, I hope today will be easier. I did go to yoga which felt great after a long day of uncomfortable travel. Need to hydrate and veggies today. I already have some meals portioned out so that will make it easier.
01/24 185.8
01/25 185.8
01/26 186.6 stayed close to plan today. chose rice as my main grain for the day with my poke bowl, but only got 1/2 cup rice and the rest salad greens and had the left overs for dinner.
01/27 188.0 well hello, water weight!
01/28 186.8 almost gone. leg day at the gym.
01/29 186.8 so sore from yesterday! yoga to stretch it out.
01/30 187.2 still sitting here. my trend line is actually going up right now. Maybe tomorrow I can see a drop that will correct that. I did have a super hungry day yesterday probably because I've been hitting the gym hard, so that makes sticking to my plan a lot tougher. It's like the reptile brain turns on "must have FUEL!!!" but the choices I made were lean proteins and only 2 cookies. I also really wanted some wine with dinner, but turned that down too.Hope tomorrow is easier.
01/31 185.8 Finally back where I started. This round has been really tough weight wise and I'm not sure why? I have been putting more thought into my eating, being more careful, and planning ahead, and just seeing these fluctuations of the same 3 pounds is a total bummer. I do think that starting back in the gym causes me to hold water more, and also makes me want to eat a bit more so that is harder diet wise. I signed up for 8 sessions with a personal trainer to help me be more accountable and be a personal cheerleader so maybe that will help.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/23 208.2 fell of the wagon a bit last night, but I am back on and ready to go!
01/24 207.8 movin' right along
01/25 206.2 It has been a SUPER stressful week, and I have stayed on track, even made it to kickboxing twice... Yay me! I am going out to dinner tonight, and will indulge, but am confident that it will not derail me. TGIF!
01/26 207.8 I own it! As I said yesterday, last night was a splurge, and it was yummy. My son is working on a health project, and keep hearing him use terms like"good foods" and "bad foods" I want him to understand that You can be healthy, and still enjoy some sliders and fries once in a while, and not feel guilty! Also, that you are in control of your choices. I want him to see that I did not "blow" it, and that today, will continue to my journey of making good choices, and moving more. Weight/Shmeight....I am feeling pretty good right now!
01/27 205.8 Yay! kickboxing today, and shopping for the week. That's right! I was not derailed!
01/28 206 This is ok... I just hope it will be down a little bit again tomorrow. Kickboxed yesterday, walked, and stayed in my calories, definitely did not drink enough water.
01/29 206.2 Harumph
01/30 204.6 That's better! May have a snow day tomorrow.... always a challenge for me!
01/31 204.4... I actually thought I was the same this morning... but .2 is .2 ! Kickboxing tonight, and hopefully a good night's sleep. Having some issues with that lately, and I know from experience that it affects my progress.
