Good day yesterday, but it will take a few days to level out after a week of indulging. Have a good weekend!
02/03- 140 - 1761
On track yesterday, but oh, those time lags. Weather was gorgeous and I went for a long walk outdoors - yay! Going to be nice the next couple of days, too. I always think "day by day" through February. Enjoy your day!
02/04 - 139 - 1668
I'm enjoying this warmer weather we're having - more today, although rain expected this afternoon. So I'm off for a walk outdoors and then my weight training. Have a lovely!
02/05 - 140 - 2006
Sigh. But it's ok, I know why (duh - too many calories) and I'm working my way back down to a suitable level. I also slacked off on tracking the past few days so my 10day average is an estimate and I have a feeling it may be low. I've promised myself to get back to fastidious tracking. Off to the gym in a bit.
02/06 - 139 - 1433 - 10-day ave 1695
Yesterday was a good calorie day with good macros.
02/07 - 141 - 1748ish
Ok, some of that is water as I had some salty snacks last night. I just got back from a trainer session at the Y and added 4 more machines to my workout routine. Yeah, muscles!
02/08 - 143 - 1817
WHAAA??? OK, that's it. I'm awake. Exercise obviously isn't making up for increased calories, so back to basics for real. I know, I keep saying that... And obviously some of the uptick has to be water since we can't add fat that quickly, but still... I allowed myself 8 lbs over the holidays, and they are long gone and I'm up 10, so I have had a serious talk with myself and am grounded until I get back to 135 and then start down to my ultimate goal. Jeesh. (at least my clothes still fit!)
02/09 - 144 - 2012
Going the wrong direction. Everything was fine yesterday until the cheese sampler at an event I went to last night. Great cheeses from around the world. I couldn't not... But I did exercise, mostly weights yesterday, and I'm planning a good hour of "hill walking" on the treadmill in a little while. And less food. Really. And gallons of water to counter all the sodium the past couple of days.
02/10 - 142.6 -
Okay, that's a little better. I had hoped to end this round lower than I started it, but....next round! Have a lovely Sunday, all.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/02: 206.2. Went out for breakfast and didn’t over eat (yay), but ended up eating too much sugar today. But only went over my calorie goal by 50. So not horrible but must make better choices.
02/03: 206.2 Had a slice of high calorie pizza, but I did keep it to one slice. Just made sure to stay close to calorie goal.
02/04: 205.9 Planning all meals today ahead of time to keep me on track. Working from home today so this should be easier.
02/05: 205.3. Planning meals ahead again. Ended up with a UTI which has kind of derailed me today. Ugh! Go to doctor tomorrow.
02/06: 205.8 UTI has me feeling sick. Struggled to eat enough calories which is definitely not like me! Get medicine from doctor and hope to feel better soon.
02/07: 205.3 Really struggling with not feeling well. Keeping up my healthy eating.
02/08: 205.5 Feeling a little run down from being sick but I’m hanging in there.
02/09: 204.8. Feeling better. Planning meals ahead of time is helping.
02/10: 205.4 Had a sugary treat yesterday but I’m back to my healthy WOE today more determined then ever.

GW: 234lbs (temp goal)
Round 66 Start: 323.5 End: 318
This round covers my pill break (02/01-02/08), due to PCOS I can have a lot of water weight increase. I'm willing to eat up to maintainance some days, if needed - basically giving myself extra leeway to cope with period cravings!
Day/Weight/Comment
02/02: 319.5lbs (+1.5) - Happy enough with this, ate pretty much right to my calorie goal yesterday and I think this may be around my actual weight.
02/03: 319.5 (+0) Yay for consistency.
02/04: 318.75 (-0.75) Going the right way, surprised as I'm feeling bloated as hell today.
02/05: 317.75 (-1) Wooshing! Feel like death today though.
02/06: 318 (+0.25) Happy enough, staying stable, and feeling better today again. Fish and chips tonight for my brother's birthday, will be nice! Babysitting my nephew too for a couple of hours.
02/07: 318.5 (+0.5) Earlier weigh and a gigantic meal last night, within my calorie goals though so should all even out. Yoghurt with fresh banana and a cup of tea for breakfast though, should start my day well without being too heavy. Expect to be down again by the end of the round. Had a lovely time yesterday though!
02/08: 314.5 (-4) Period was probably hiding my loss. My actual calorie deficit currently puts me at a 1.5lb/ week loss, possibly moving enough to make ~2lbs a week. Not sure how much water a person can have to lose for this whoosh! I did weigh twice to check. Very nice to see!
02/09: 314.5 (+0) Seeing this two days in a row is amazing. Nearly 12lbs since my starting weight, 14.5lbs from where I've been sitting on average for a while/where I was after Christmas, 21.5lbs from my heaviest. Having lost a stone from where I've sat for so long is an amazing feeling. Overdid it yesterday, but I don't want to overeat, because I know I'm getting there. Pretty happy overall!
02/10: 316.5 (+2) Would've liked to be the other way, but not worried. Still achy today, I've noticed my pain can seem to link with slight increases before.

Round 66 EW: 220.4 (-2)
Goals for R67: drink my water, close my circles, > 10K steps daily, journal my food
Day/Weight/Comment:
02/02 219.8 drank my water, closed my circles, > 13k steps. Off to a good start! In January, I didn’t really change my food, but I did drop alcohol for #dryjanuary and added in exercise. I wanted to try and incorporate small changes along the way that I could sustain. This month I will really start tracking food, and being aware of making better choices. 🤞🏻
02/03 219.6 drank my water, closed my circles, only 8K steps as I was in the car most of the day. About to go walk now, but is anyone else worried about overeating/drinking at the Superbowl parties? Thinking I need to plan for the number to go up some the next few days.

02/04 . 220.4 drank my water, closed my circles, 10K steps...but the Superbowl was so booooring that I ate my way right through it! Back on it today!
02/05 220.2 drank my water, closed my circles, 12.7K steps. Hoping to see a nice downward slide soon!
02/06 219.8 drank my water, closed my circles, 12.7K steps. Argh. Wished for more today!
02/07 219.4 **didn't get to update yesterday, but had weighed in.
02/08 219.0 a bit frustrated now that 7 days later all I've lot is .8lbs! But to be truthful with myself, my exercise has been great but I've had a couple big meals the last few days.
02/09 218.2 - Last night I was grumpy, didn't go to the gym, and drank 2 glasses of wine. Now this morning my scale has finally moved a bit and I'm so mad at myself!! LOL that wine is going to show up sometime! Back to the gym today! Happy Saturday!
02/10 217.6 closed my circles with 60 minutes on the treadmill, just about all my water. Today I'm starting my food journal. I keep doing it sporadically, but not with fidelity. I think I will write it in a journal instead of on MFP, because everytime I see all those numbers, I get hungry!! I've been listening to the podcast Phit-n-Phat - anyone else listen to Corrinne? I think she speaks my love language!

02/09 180.8 I'm hoping I can finish this challenge back under 179. We'll see.
02/10 181.6 What? 😨 I'm slowly creeping up! I tracked carefully yesterday and drank extra water. It is still that time though, so I'm hopeful this is going to drop off in a day or two.

02/02. 196.0
02/03. 194.8
02/04. 195.4. I admit I earned the gain. Regular calories, and then a few chicken wings andthen nachos and cheese. Darn super Bowl!
02/05. 194.2. 😊.happy. Kept to plan, both with calories and water. A new low!
02/06. 194.0. Stayed on plan, drank my water and tried a new dinner recipe which was a hit. So good day.
02/07. 193.0. I had to weigh twice to confirm weight. On target for food, a little short on water.
02/08. 194.0. Food good, water good, but had a two glasses of wine. Can’t believe it would make that much of a difference.
02/09. 194.2. Weekend bounce! I can do really well during, now must rein in on weekends however.
02/10. 193.4. Sunday dinner today. Really hoping I can maintain this weight.

02/10 !44.8# UGH!!! Ok, so I have fooled myself this week into thinking that I was eating little enough to maintain or lose, because I certainly wasn't eating good enough. (post Super Bowl Party at my house and leftovers) And then for the first time in a very long time, I had an episode of emotional eating. Now that I have gotten that out of my system and recognize my downfalls, it's only forward in the right direction starting now (again). Logging cannot be an option.

Hi-I’m Karen
Sept. 2018 OSW 187
I am jumping back in late because I have been caring for my dad after his knee replacement, and we are in the process of moving. I am home now, and will take my scale with me when I go back to my dad’s house. I have missed you guys!💚
2/9-165 I’ve been good and careful at my dad’s house. I was hoping to still be in the 160’s. I made Beet Kvass (easy)and drank some yesterday.
2/10-165-We ate Mexican food out and I ask for a burrito on a plate with no tortilla....it is still salty though.7 -
Female 55
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.

Round 66 SW 198.8--EW 194.4
Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 194.2 Had some wine last night, but kept everything else on plan. Did not get any excercise. Today is a beutiful day, so my goal is 15,000 steps.
02/03 194.4 Walked 5 miles around the lake yesterday. Had some wine last night but stuck with my keto foods and was within my calorie count.
02/04 195.4 Walked 6 miles, fasted until 3, but apparently the cheese and nuts got me. Back on IBIH soup plan for the work week.
02/05 196.2 Don't know how I
m up, but I'm just going to keep plugging along.....
02/06 194.8 NSV I walked into our faculty meeting yesterday to a table full of chips, dips, snack mixes and king cake. I avoided all of it and just sipped my herbal tea. I've stuck with my plan and got 12,000 steps yesterday. Would like to see my hard work reflected on the scale....
02/07 194.6 so slow.........Hoping for a big drop in a few days. I'll just keep plugging along...
02/08 194.6 Still no movement. Walked 13,000 steps yesterday and logged 1100 calories. My body does not want to give up this fat!!!!
02/09 194.2
02/10 194.4 I hope I end this round at a lower weight than I started. Still plugging along......

My name is Joan. I am 60 years young. I am very active. MFP helped me to lose 30# (October 16- June 17). After reaching my goal weight of 125. I decided to set a goal weight range of 125-130.
I started to really struggle again this past fall, falling back into bad eating habits. In January- I was 135. I feel so great at lower weight and absolutely do not want to regain as I have many times in the past. I’m looking for some more serious New MFP friends for mutual support. One of my MFP friends told me about this challenge. Present weight-132.12 -

02/02 176.9 A drop to start the round. All good. Three mile walk in the sunshine and a delicious portion controlled dinner made for a very nice night. Today and tomorrow will be limb collection and breakdown time. Probably won’t walk both days. The yard work will be enough. Happy Saturday all.
02/03 177.6 I was within calories yesterday but only because of a little yard work last night. I’m ok with it. I knew this would be a small loss after the last round. Woohoo roller coaster up
02/04 179.1 And we keep going up, but I had a VERY high sodium day yesterday with some Asian food. I did walk and do the day2 week2 of C25K, this time without stopping once so I'm happy with that. I also spent a couple of hours in the yard chopping up limbs. My shoulders and arms are sore from doing it. I thought I was working a lot of those muscles going to the gym but apparently not the ones that involve dragging huge limbs across the yard. Just have to stick to the plan.
02/05 178.5 Down is always the right direction. I am so happy to be in the 70's. I mean I'm not thrilled to be at a higher number than I was 3 days ago but I'm in a good place. I got in three chilly miles yesterday. I was going to go 4 but I was under dressed for the weather. I didn't realize the wind was gusting at 500 mph. I was so cold I almost did only one mile, then almost stopped at two miles, and I threw in the towel at three. I could not get warm all night after I got home. Turned on the gas fireplace and ran others out of the living room trying to get warm. Ended up taking a bath to finally feel warm. Woke up to freezing rain
02/06 179.1 Up again, but TOM is here and probably part of this little temporary hump in my roller coaster. I don't know how it can still sneak up on me, but alas it did... again... I only did 45 minutes at the gym last night, I was worried about the weather and left. It was sleeting. It stopped a little after I got home but this morning my neighborhood was a skating rink. No walking outside tonight - I'm headed to the indoor gym. I should do C25K day3 week2 today but right now I'm not feeling it. It may be one of those slow 3 miles but I got them in so don't look at me like that nights.
02/07 179.1 I think I will be down to my goal by the end of the round. I did not go to the gym last night. I went home early because it was sleeting again. It was a weird night, we had a house shaking thunderstorm but with freezing rain. I am so lucky to have job where I can work from home on days like today. I really want to get to the gym tonight. It will depend on the roads, otherwise maybe a cardio video? I don't know. Five days to lose the stupid water weight...
02/08 179.2 I was under in calories yesterday but the only exercise I did was laundry and cooking dinner. I didn't leave the house. I haven't walked since Monday and I can tell. I went to the gym Tuesday night, nothing Wednesday and Thursday. I feel terrible. Sitting around all day yesterday was not good for me. It was 9 degrees this morning when I cleaned off the car to come to work. Weather will NOT derail me. Even though it's Friday night and I got paid I have to go to the indoor gym to walk after work. No questions asked. I realize now that my body needs that, my mental state needs me to walk maybe more than my body. How can I be this old (months away from being 50) and just now realize how much better it makes me feel???
02/09 179.2 I hate doing updates on my phone. I typed this once already and lost it.
02/10 178.2 Baby whoosh, hoping to see another. Walked three miles in the cold Friday night and another 3 on the indoor track yesterday. I need another 3 at least to stay on track (haha) today. High of 37...

ROUND 67 (Round 13 for me)
5’5” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
GW 135 lb.
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-66 = 38.4 lb.
I like you folks, and I really appreciate and enjoy your company. Besides, I’m not sure I can stay on track without you!
Day/Weight/Comment
02/02 139.8 I’m starting this round .2 lb. above yesterday’s weight, but I had a short night, so I’m grateful it wasn’t higher. One way or another, I’ll have to get in a walk tomorrow. For this evening, I’ll complete my pushups and sit-ups. My pushups are still wimpy, but I’ll get stronger.
02/03 139.8 Again. Oh, well, tomorrow could be worse. I walked over 6 miles today, and that usually stunts my loss for a day. I ate more than usual this evening, too, watching the football game with my Boston-area born husband. He was happy with the game. We ate some of his left-over ribs from our date yesterday, and I made keto sausage cheese balls/puffs. I feed him extra carbs (he had the rest of his sweet potato this evening), but he likes most of my keto foods. We didn’t have company, so I have a lot of the sausage cheese puffs left—I’ll have three or four with a boiled egg for a quick breakfast before I leave for work in the morning.
02/04 140.6
02/05 140.4
02/06 140.6 I got busy and fell behind! I did another 6+ mile walk with Thor today. I have a strong desire to get below 140 again before the round is over. I haven’t logged calories for the last 3 days (experimenting), but I may have to start again. I was supposed to do push-ups and sit-ups yesterday, but I received the second shingles vaccine, and my arm is very sore. I think I can do the sit-ups this evening, but I’m not sure about the push-ups. Our local “pizza paradise” has started making a gluten free/cauliflower crust pizza that we tried this evening. It was good, but I wouldn’t know how to log it if I was logging. I had ¼ of a 10” pizza, which shouldn’t be too bad. I liked it. My husband prefers the regular crust, but agreed he could eat this one again.
02/07 139.8 I’m glad to be back under 140, if only barely. Six of our card playing group played canasta most of the day and the husband of our hostess prepared a very tasty low-carb soup and salad lunch. I ate some of the sugar-free peach pie our hostess baked, even though peaches not being part of my eating plan. Despite the pain from my vaccination on Tuesday, I was able to complete my sit-ups and push-ups last night, which made me happy. I have a rash at the vaccination site, but my arm is less sore today.
02/08 140.2
02/09 139.8 Yesterday, I was up early, worked on tax returns for almost 12 hours, and returned home exhausted. Today, I was up early helping with the community pancake breakfast (I only ate eggs and sausage). I did my shopping and took a 2-hr. nap before taking a 3 mile walk. I feel much better this evening.
02/10 138.8 I’m ready for that! If I hold that one more day, I can end the round with a loss. I’m making our breakfast, then it’s off to church we go. The gospel group I sing with has an engagement this evening, so traveling and performing will fill the remainder of the day.
