Day/Weight/Comment
05/03--207.6 Lowest weight in about 3 years. Went to trainer yesterday...my trainer complimented me on my strong back, I felt really good. Hubby and I practiced our dancing last night.
05/04--207.6 Going for a run today, The weather is supposed to be great here today so later hubby and I will be taking the dog for a long walk and then going out for dinner.
05/05--207.4 Perfect weather in the PNW yesterday for a run...ran for 4.5 miles. I went out for dinner yesterday and ate something that I have a food sensitivity to so I expect a bump up in the scale over the next couple of days, but I made a conscious decision to eat the food so I'm okay with that. Went to the gym this morning. My husband was impressed that he could see the definition in my shoulder muscles as I was tying my shoes...it's funny how a compliment about something like shoulder muscles could make my day.
05/06--208.5 There's the jump I was expecting. I woke up with a tummy ache and felt heavy, so I knew the weight gain was because of me eating food I was sensitive to, but back to my non-sensitive food eating today. Doctor's appointment today and run later today.
05/07--208.3 Ran 2 miles yesterday, was going to run longer but it was a little too humid. Trainer tonight.
05/08--208.7 Sore from trainer yesterday and was so hungry when I got home. Snacked and didn't drink a lot of water today. Will make sure to get water in today. Run today and then yoga.
05/09-208.5 Was pretty warm when I went out to run yesterday so I cut the run a little short. Yoga was great. Trainer tonight.
05/10--208.7 Had a great workout yesterday. My trainer, who is usually on the subdued side, was giving me fist bumps.
05/11--209.8 Well, all my snacking has caught up with me. Regardless of the scale I went out and ran 5 miles, which is the longest distance I've ran in years. More importantly I woke up later than I had planned and didn't want to go run, but instead I went out in the heat and easily ran the 5 miles...for me that's more important than the number on the scale

@quiltingjaine, Yes, the lowered carbs always make a big difference. I've been so quiet on the challenge boards in the past weeks, because I'm working on me. 😉

Still trying to pin down the lingering causes of my 7 month, what I'm going to call "keto plateau" I thought I had it solved. I'm always experimenting on myself. The key had been in one of my food choices, peanut butter. I want to eat it when I'm low on b vitamins. I had stopped taking my vitamins for a while. So, started taking them again, but still want pb, just not as often. Now, I like peanut butter, but it was getting ridiculous. Before keto, it was one of those food items that I'd push aside in my pantry while searching for something else. It could be there for months without me really noticing it. I do know that PB is also high in potassium. Do I just need to increase my potassium? Yes/maybe. I NEVER get 4700mg of potassium daily. I barely break 2000mg a day. Not even when I used to drink two 24 ounce green smoothies + vegetables a day. I finally thought, maybe this "plateau" has to do with electrolytes. But, uh, I'm drinking my electrolytes. What gives? May 6th, I got close to 3000mg. On May 7th, I mixed 1/4 tsp of LoSalt and increased Morton salt substitute to 1 tsp mixed in water and drank it throughout the day. My potassium intake was 7190 milligrams. Three days in a row my potassium level has been over 4000mg. Each day my fluid weight has dropped some. I'm encouraged. Will the month of May be my exit from the 170's? Praying for it!

Try to boost TDEE with small daily movements to achieve 3000 steps daily (I'm disabled and I often get less than 1000 per day)

We have a group called "Disabled MFP-ers With Attitude" where we all have that kind of issue (one way or another). Mine is working up from the 5000 to 7500 step goal, but with my AS, it can be quite a pain in the, well, everywhere. Come join us if you'd like.

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 !!!
05/12 NW - early start at the airport after a lovely wedding yesterday, but well over calories on meal & alcohol at the reception and only managed 2.25 miles walking with traveling there and then straight to the airport afterwards, but such a lovely couple and wouldn't have missed it for the world!! Need to really focus today to compensate.

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)
05/12 13,10 I'm very grouchy about this. I'm trying not to be and I know some of it is water from yesterday's workout but still. Its not helping that my husband (who is a healthy weight) is doing a work weight loss challenge (they win days of annual leave so he thought he'd join in) and is currently 'the biggest loser'. He doesn't understand how I haven't lost weight and thinks I should do what he's doing (eating hardly anything to 'win') and that I'm just not making enough effort. However, I'm off to sign up to the next challenge - I can't go backwards and if this is an artificial high at least I have a chance in the next round.

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
05/12-94.4kg and 23,400 steps. Ending the round with a bang no of steps. Was exploring a new city all sat. Haf no time to breathe, just walk around and photo all. Was expecting water retention this morning, so a small drop is a surprise.

It's a wrap. Total ⬇️0.2kg and very happy! See you next round

04/05- 133 Did not post
05/05 -132 Did not post
06/05 -132 What the heck is wrong with me? I joined this challenge to try and get some consistency in my life but, although I weight myself every morning I haven't got round to posting the results. I am close to my target weight having lost most of the lbs I put on over the winter but my real goal is to stop the cycle of weight gain and weight loss that I seem to be trapped in.
07/05-131
08/05 -131 I think I have cut my calories too far, too fast. My weight has dropped but I have been hungry. Last night I eat rounds of toast and then chocolate left after Easter. I think this is a further example of my bad habit of either eating too much or crash dieting. My aim for the rest of the challenge is to eat at maintenance to regain control.
09/05 - 132 Paying the price! Eating better
10/05 132 A good day, went out with a friend to watch the football at the local WMC. More relaxed.
11/05 -131 I think I lost the water weight gained from eating a mountain of bread and chocolate

05/03 - 201.6 - a little loss to start me off. Exercise very good. Food could have been better but not too bad.
05/04 - 202.6 - up again. No exercise and had a few glasses of wine.
05/05 - 203.6 - up again! Food not great and Noe exercise. Very little water too.
05/06 - 203.2 - down a little, exercise good, water good, food not so good.
05/07 - 203.4 - up again but food not good and no exercise, except for standing all day which was better that sitting. Home today so will be more in control.
05/08 - 201.0 - seems to be an unusually big drop. Food was good yesterday, also good exercise and water intake. Now to hold on to the loss.
05/09 - 200.2 - very good day yesterday.
05/10 - 200.6 - disappointing as I was very good and even got a run in.
05/11 - 201.6 - weekends aren't my best so unlikely to finish on a loss this time. Next tround!
05/12 - 200.6 - yes I was really good yesterday and I went for a long (for me) run. Happy with the loss.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 – 197.6 I am not sure what is going on, but will go with the flow. I did lots of activities yesterday.
05/04 – 197.8 I have to trust this is just from all the extra hard work I have put in, feeling stiff again today. This will go the other direction again.
05/05 – 196.6
05/06 – 196.8 Oh this is annoying, I have to figure something out.
05/07 – 195.6 it about time, now keep going the right direction.
05/08 – 195.6
05/09 – 195.2
05/10 – 194.8 Finally met my May 1st goal of 195lbs.
05/11 – 195.2 I tried something different after exercising and should not have ate it, but its all good. You live and you learn.
05/12 – 194.6

End Results: 3lbs lost

Happy Mother's Day!
