Blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, BMI, heart rate, fitness = Nothing to change. All Normal, Great, Perfect. Heart attack risk is LOW.
NEVER give up, Everyone! After a lifetime of weighing 215 - 228, I’m normal. I’m healthy. I’m at peace.
I’m here if you want suggestions to assist you in identifying a small weekly habit change that you could practice each week or round. Baby habit changes work!
5/3 153.8 (actually lower, but such is the timing of my digestive track lol)
5/4 154.6 (Mexican food late)
HIKED 9.3 MILES 2,222 feet elevation💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 4:20 hours I NEVER even thought I would ever be able to do this. 25,020 steps today so far.
WALK 10K steps per day - every day - it works!!!
5/5 154.6 *probably* water retention, but I’m reigning in calories to make sure!
5/6154.4 *still* likely (at least partially) my muscles healing plus some soy sauce last night. Continuing to be careful with intake. Holding sodium low today.
5/7 155.8 (I should be down 10 oz, but instead am up 2.4lbs. Time will make it clear what is happening...) early weigh-in
5/8 154.4 continuing to monitor & keeping calories a little lower + more exercise. Still comfortably wearing my recent skinnier jeans purchase! “Tumtum” as I’m affectionately training to call my lil blip above my belly button is a great barometer...It’s better at 153, so I’m motivated to get back there
5/9 154.4

Up 0.5lbs in 2019 (130 days)

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 - 139.9 (+.7) great way to start 😂 I think I’m retaining water because TOM is coming. Will see how it plays out. If TOM is close I should have a good drop during round. 🤞🏻
05/04 - 140.2 (+.3) no idea what’s going on. I’m not eating over my calories. I’m exercising a ton. Drinking a ton of water. Should be going the other way but it is what it is. I’m guessing it’s bloat and water retention since there’s not much else I can attribute it to. Going to keep at it and hope for the best in the coming days.
05/05 - 140.3 (+.1) I have no idea what’s happening. I am thinking maybe I’m holding on to water because I’m fighting a cold. I’m still able to eat and have energy but still fighting a head cold. Not sure what else could be happening. I’m eating good and doing more activities than ever.
05/06 - 140.4 (+.1) TOM hit today (a bit early), maybe this is what has been causing the water retention. Hope to shed the excess in a few days.
05/07 - 140.9 (+.5) Not even sure what to do anymore 😂 I’m eating good, below my calories, working out like a mad woman and still keep gaining.
05/08 - 139.1 (-1.8) finally lost some of the water retention. Still about a pound up from where I was before though. I’ve been working pretty hard the last week and would have expected better results but I’m glad I’m finally down again. Only 4 days left to make goal so I can’t see it happening unless there is more water weight to lose. On a positive note I am looking smaller, clothes fitting better, and muscles are popping. 💪🏻
05/09 - 138.9 (-.2) slower and more steady, maybe I’m back on track.
05/10 - 139.6 (+.7) ugh I just don’t know.

@tiabirdie56 Tish, what a difference those carbs make!!
@GrandmaJackie Thank you for Round 77!
@beckyboo8504 Drink pickle juice, suck on Pink Himalayan salt. Be sure to get sufficient electrolytes.
@deepwoodslady Donna, I think I didn’t address your question the other day. I would think your steps would be accurate the way you are doing them - switching the fitbit around. I don’t pay ANY attention to “calories burned” and barely any to calories in. I watch my macros.4 -

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
5/2 126.0
###########
5/3 126.0 Flying to Oklahoma this evening. DH cut the area between 2 toes last night. We went to the ER around midnight and got home about 4AM. I got up at 6:45 to deliver my pot garden to the neighbor for care while we’re gone. Laid back down but didn’t sleep as DH started a load of wash. Got up delivered cat to sitter at 9:15. Bags are not packed - his job. Dragging his feet and I’m having an anxiety attack.
5/4 123.5 False low, I’m sure. Instead of weight around 5AM, very late weigh in - woke up after 10am. Arrived last night, needed some food. Waffle House bacon cheese burger, no bun, no fries with lettuce tomato and some pickles. I was exhausted and don’t even remember getting in bed!
5/5 120.0 I didn’t drink enough water or coffee yesterday so probably be dehydrated. DH’s foot was hot and red so trip to Urgent Care first thing (noon?)yesterday followed by lunch out (fast food) then DD#1 and I were out and about until about 8PM so she could find dresses for the graduations. Helping her get back to Keto while we’re here.
5/6 125.0 Okay, I thought those were a couple of false lows. DD had changed location of scale so now it is back in it’s old spot and weight is 👍. I’m good with this. Woke up early with scratchy throat and plugged nose.
5/7 124.5 I feel miserable. I wish my head would explode. Went to bed at 11:30, woke up at 2:30 and again around 4. Nose running like a faucet so I got up. Took something for the headache which has improved a bit. We are at DD’s with no car so forced rest. YAY! Maybe I’ll binge watch something on Netflix. And drink LOTS OF WATER. This will pass, just feeling sorry for myself.
5/8 123.0 Got a decent night’s sleep so I feel a little better. DGS’s graduation tonight.
5/9 122.0 1300 students - even with 4 people reading the names, it takes a while for all those kids to walk across the stage! Leaving for Iowa this afternoon.
5/10 NWI In Ames, Iowa until Sunday morning. Hanging out with DGD#2 who graduates tomorrow. DH has my cold, we’re all exhausted. Need this day to rest before graduation activities and moving Stassja out of her apartment.
I will probably be late tomorrow due to graduation stuff starting at 9AM with College of Interior Design convocation and university graduation in the afternoon. Dinner tonight with family and friends at a nice restaurant. There will be cake. I avoided it at a party here last summer.12 -

***ROUND 76 (my 6th)***Day/Weight/Comment
SW this round (5/02): 149.2
05/03 147.8 Even though this is technically hitting my goal weight for this round, I'm going to keep my goal weight the same for now. Still going strong on my (temporary) keto plan, and I set movement alarms yesterday to reach 3744 steps. Two weekends to get through in this round, here we go! (Don't mess it up, don't mess it up...)
05/04 147 No complaints! Expecting it to bounce up again tomorrow. Everything is sitting like a lump in my stomach.
05/05 144.4 What?! Yesterday, I did a short aerobics workout, but it only balanced the extra 200 calories I ate, so I guess I have to credit keto for this? Boo, kind of. I like carbs!
05/06 145.6 Nothing big to report from yesterday- still keto, still within my calories. Did 2278 steps on a bad pain day, so I'm happy with my efforts yesterday.
05/07 145.6 Cruising along. Tomorrow I will be a week and a 1/2 into my keto month. There are lots of things I like about this way of eating, and so many things that are not sustainable for me in the long term, as I have learned previously. But I may be able to do a month off and on as I am losing. There are a lot of benefits for sure. Something to consider.
05/08 143.6 Um...
05/09 146.2 So of course I didn't GAIN 2.6 lbs overnight on the 887 calories I consumed yesterday (abnormally low, I was having an awful pain day). Nor did I, evidently, LOSE 2 lbs OF PURE FAT between Monday and Tuesday, ha. Weighing daily on this challenge has taught me that it'll all settle out!
05/10 145 Down 1.6. What a rollercoaster of a round this has been! Only two more days to go, but one of them is Mother's Day, so I need to be proactive and *make a plan* for not blowing my progress in one day.

# 11 for me
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 377.8 - I am going to try to set more realistic goals this 10 days and if I do better so be it. Going for 4 pounds. I am also going to be more committed to checking in and going to make it easier for me to do it. If I consistently lose 4 pounds every 10 days until the end of the year I will get under 300 pounds. That is a reasonable goals.
05/04 375.8 (-2.0)
05/05 n/w in
05/06 bad weekend no weigh in - going to bite the bullet in the morning.
05/07 381.4 (+5.6) – Back on track today.
05/08 380.2 (-1.2) – So so yesterday. I think I did ok, but not a perfect or good day but not bad enough to gain.
05/09 378.4 (-1.8) Yay no gain. Got in my steps. I have to work on that sleep for sure. I had a salad yesterday.
05/10 373.8 (-4.6) I had a good day yesterday but did not expect this! But it helped me stay on track today. Weekends are a killer so goal is to maintain loss for weekend and maybe I will reach surpass my goal. Actually I should do that today for tomorrow's weigh in. The challenge is tomorrow I have Chinese food planned. So I have to be very proactive here.

Net change 2019 = (+4.4)I love below reminders from @TerriRichardson112 :flowerforyou:- 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.

GOAL. This month I am planning a non stop dieting month (with the exception of mothers day, which I will treat as a cheat meal and not a cheat day) this is an experiment to see what I could potentially accomplish if I stuck to it for the whole month with no breaks or cheat meals

05/03139.6 last round was a wash...it happens. I am back in it for May, i want to see what I can accomplish this month if I just stuck to it every day. If the odd day comes around (for this month mothers day and a concert I believe) I will treat it as a cheat meal...not a cheat day. Let the May-June 3rd challenge begin!!! (I was good the past two days but decided to begin with the new round) I got this!!! DAY 1 accomplished
05/04137-Day 2 accomplished a nice woooosh but yesterday was a very active day so not totally surprised. I know it's the 5th but I forgot to post last night and am going to post at the end of my day, before bed for more accuracy on the accomplishment
05/05 137 day 3 x after a busy day today I was only left with left over options so it wasn't a good day. If I can end this month on a three day x than I will be happy. I am not happy it happened so early in the month and hope it isn't a foreshadowing but what can you do
05/06 138 day 4 accomplished expected gain but working on it
05/07 138.4 day 5 accomplished no reason for this gain but I am taking it in stride
05/08 137 day 6 accomplished a well deserved woooosh
05/09 136.8 day 7 x no excuses just TOM troubles and bad choices. Already 2 days down. I need to be more head strong
05/10 138.6 day 8 accomplished TOM troubles. Hoping this water weight drops off more easily in the next couple of days

Ready for another round! I’m keeping my goals basically the same and hoping I’ll actually get a few chores done this time.
R75(1) – SW: 202.8 – EW: 198.8 (-4.0)
R76(2) – SW 198.8 – EW:?
Round 76 Goals:
1) Walk 30+ minutes each day
2) Active gardening or household task 30+ minutes each day
3) 64-80 oz. water per day
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 – 198.8 – TGIF! Misty morning walk (60 min). Grocery shopping after class. Made Rueben sandwiches (all that salt!) and a cucumber salad for dinner, then settled down for a lazy Friday evening in. Looks like rain might put a damper on outdoor plans tomorrow Trying to stay optimistic
05/04 – 199.4 – A little bump, but I’ll work on it this week. This morning’s rain gave way to a beautiful sunny afternoon in the city. 21,716 steps, including over 2 ½ hours of walking through the park at a brisk pace. At least 96 oz of water, but I’ll need a bit more before I turn in tonight.
05/05 – 199.4 – Heavy rain all day. Lazy morning and no walk, but I eventually got a couple of hours of cleaning done before my dinner guests arrived. Carnitas tacos, sangria, and flan put me over my calorie limit, but I was under yesterday, so we’ll see how that works out. Fun weekend. I ate all kinds of food, but less of it than I might have in the past. Working on developing sustainable habits 😊
05/06 – 200.0 – Not unexpected, but somehow still disappointing. I guess it’s a reminder to get back on track. Got a few chores in before work. 60 minute walk along the shore (boardwalk) with the wind providing some resistance. 10+ waters.
05/07 – 199.4 – That’s better. Looks like another lovely day, so I’ll try to squeeze in a walk before class and do some weeding this afternoon. (Update: 70 min walk and 30 min of weeding! Plenty of water.)
05/08 – 199 – Woke up sluggish and achy – yesterday’s aggressive weeding session aggravated my sciatica, derailing my plan to walk before class. A trip to the mall with my daughter boosted my spirits, and the two new belts I bought for my now loose jeans boosted my confidence. Took the dog for a 45 min walk before dinner. Good hydration.
05/09 – 198.4 – A badly needed rest day. Last full week of classes and, as usual, I'm playing catch-up on grading and thus not getting enough sleep. Looking forward to sleeping in this weekend!
05/10 – 198.8 – Back where I started at the beginning of this challenge. Oh, well. Busy day with my grandson’s kindergarten show in the morning and a quick early lunch with my mom before class. Picked the kids up after school and took them for ices. Chinese take-out for dinner. So many temptations but I managed a small deficit. No time to walk. Hoping to work off some of those extra calories in the garden tomorrow. Still hoping for a drop by Sunday, but I’m okay with holding steady this round.

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 76 (round 8 for me !) Lets go again !!!
Female age 61 5' 4”
Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it!
The last day I shall not be weighing in as we shall be flying out for the first day of our holiday in Italy. Need to do really well over the next 9 days .
Round goal - to weigh less at the end of the round than the start, I think maybe it's too ambitious to want to be in the 120's?
End of round 69 134.2 lbs
End of round 70 133.6
End of round 71 132.4
End of round 72 133.2
End of round 73 132.8
End of round 74 132
End of round 75 131.4
05/03 131.8 – walked 8 ¼ miles
05/04 131.4 - walked 8 miles
05/05 132.4 - walked 10 miles yesterday, was within calories, but loads of carbs so to be expected
05/06 132 - walked just under 14.5 miles yesterday, so loving North Yorkshire, but travel home again today so at least 3 hours in the car
05/07 131.2 – walked almost 5 ¼ miles yesterday
05/08 131.2 – just under 8 ½ miles walked yesterday, met up with my sisters under pressure to eat more, but stayed strong and using portion limitation stayed well within calorie limit.
05/09 130.2 – woohoo !! 8 miles walked yesterday – woke up starving hungry at 1.30 am!! but resisted the urge to get up and eat
05/10 130.2 – 8 ¼ miles walked yesterday. Need to hold on to this weight for tomorrow which will be my final weigh in for the round before I fly off for a weeks holiday in Italy, don't think I will be able to find any scales over there, but will keep in touch.
05/11 130.2 – 9 miles walked yesterday. So pleased to retain this number for my final weight of this round – need to try to maintain on my holiday in Italy the coming week – pasta & pizza in moderation !!!

Goal: will this be the round to mark GW2? Was hoping that since round 71. Let's see.
05/03-94.6kg and 4,300 steps. Today is a good day, becuase today I get to mark Mini GW2! Been waiting for it for long, and probably not a good idea to start a round low, but I'm taking it with both hands! Woohoo!
05/04-94.6kg and 5,500 steps. Nice and steady. Should walk more.
05/05--95.3kg and 9,300 steps. Flactuations. Falctuation. Flactuations.

05/08-95.0kg and 10,300 steps. Stable and happy
05/09-94.3kg and 10,600 steps. Mini woosh. Let's see where this round ends. Trying to commit to walking in the evenings despite that it is quit cold the last few days.
05/10-94.6kg and 6,800 steps + 10km 🚴♀️
05/11-94.8kg and 10,300 steps

End weight round 75 (first round for me) : 13 stone, 8lbs (190lbs) -3lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 13,10 - Ho hum. Start of Bank Holiday weekend so need to plan out food so I don't go off-track.
05/04 13,11 - Seriously irritated by this but too busy to get drawn into a funk. This is my heaviest workout day with a 2hr martial arts session including fight fitness which was a killer today. No car available so I had to bike there and back in the wind. On the up-side I have lots of calories to play with.
05/05 13,10 - Got up super early to do a car boot sale. Despite being busy I seem to have used up far to high a percentage of my calories before dinner.
05/06 13,10 Overate yesterday. Need to get back on track today
05/07 13,10 Went further off the track without a map. Back into routine today so should get sorted.
05/08 13,9 Does anyone else stare at the scales willing it downwards?
05/09 13,10 Not unexpected. Yesterday was a total disaster for food and the days before weren't much better so this was going to happen. Very annoyed at myself - but need to stop it here before it continues
05/10 13,10 The scales were wavering between 13,9 and 10 but stopped at 10 - hopefully this means tomorrow it will go back to 9. Had a reasonable day yesterday. Am hoping can end the round back at 13,8 where I started it.
05/11 13,9 Heavy workout today so tomorrow it might dip down or I might retain water and it could even go up (again)
