ROUND 77 (Round 19 for me)
5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle mass
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-77 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last round below my maintenance range. I like the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135.
Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 132.6 I’m off to a low start, which means I can indulge a little. Strict adherence to keto paid off while I was losing weight, so I’ve earned the privilege of eating extra carbs. I’ll have rice with my Keto Gumbo this evening. It’s good without the rice, but I don’t want to lose more weight. My husband loves the Keto Gumbo, and, since he’s thin, I always add rice to his serving. Thor and I are going for a long walk today—I’ve kept him waiting for 3 weeks because of our cruise and all the rain since we returned. The sun is shining!
05/14 133.2 Thor and I enjoyed our walk yesterday, but I’m afraid I waited too long and have to get him used to it again. I checked the pavement several times yesterday to make sure it wasn’t too hot, and it seemed okay, and he didn’t act like anything was wrong. He walked some on the grass, but he seems to prefer the pavement. His feet were obviously sore last night. I’ll give him a couple of days before we walk again and keep the next couple of walks a little shorter. Yesterday, we walked a little over 4 miles and jogged part of the way. Thor ran out the door to chase squirrels this morning, but then slowed down. I hope he’s okay.
05/15 133.0 I started strength training with the Chalean Extreme program. I’ve procrastinated and let other activities take priority, but I’ve done it before and know how well it works, so I want to stick with it. I may have to get tough on myself.
05/16 134.2 I’m still below my maintenance range. I had muscle soreness this morning from lifting yesterday, which may account for the gain. We’ll see what tomorrow brings. Today was a rest day, and I lift again tomorrow. I brought home two kittens today to be company for my dog, Thor, and keep mice off my back porch (after they grow up). Thor’s a sweet dog, and he had a cat when he was a puppy. I’m convinced he’ll accept the kittens, but it may take a while for them to get used to each other.
05/17 133.8 I haven’t done my strength training today, but it will happen. Tomorrow is a grandchild’s birthday, so I have to make a trip to town before I lift, and, hopefully, I will make it to our community game night this evening. The kittens are doing well. I have the kittens set up with a litter box, food and water bowls, and their bed in a large dog crate next to my German Shepherd’s crate, with a cardboard barrier between them. They were all quiet throughout the night, so we’re off to a good start. I’m too old to trip over anything or any animal at night.
05/18 133.8 I got my strength training in yesterday evening and did a “burn intervals” workout this evening. I enjoyed the grandson’s t-ball game and spending time with the kids this afternoon. We stopped at one of my favorite Mexican food restaurants on the way home. I ate about half my food, didn’t even cut into the shrimp stuffed avocado, so I have lunch for tomorrow. My husband has leftovers, too, so I only have to cook breakfast. That works for me!
05/19 133.6 Happy Sunday! It’s been a good day for me. After church, and visiting my MIL in the nursing home, I took a nap, then finished my first week of Beach Body’s Chalean Extreme, which I’m excited to continue. My results may not be as impressive as they were the first time, when I was (only) 60, but, at 67, I know I will still be stronger and more agile. This time around, I lost the weight before I started strength training. I have plenty of loose skin, so I may not end up as tight, but I won’t let that deter me.
05/20 133.8 I thought I finished my first week of Chalean Extreme yesterday, but forgot I started on Wednesday and not on Monday. I finished the 3 heavy lifting days, and a cardio day, but had to do the “Burn It Off” and “Recharge” workouts today. I like the heavy weight days and cardio workouts better than the “Recharge” (stretching), but I know it's important, I did it, and tomorrow’s a rest day. If it’s not raining, Thor and I will get in a walk.
Best thing about today: Celebrating 24th anniversary of marriage to a wonderful man. He loves pasta, so I’ll fix pasta for my husband (zucchini spirals for me). I thought about making a desert, but he has cookies and his beloved coffee ice cream, so I won’t tempt myself with something I like, too. I had a first today, helping a friend deliver “Meals on Wheels” to folks. It was enjoyable, and I look forward to doing it again.

Really really enjoyed my baked potato last night. Dinner with the family was lovely so I will take the extra lb and give it back tomorrow. Meal planned Sat and shopped and prepped lunches last night. Gonna be another good run I think folks.
14-May... 187.2... -1.8
Skinnytaste meals all day. Good workout. Good results. Going to keep it up today with oats and fixins for bkfst, bbq chicken salad lunch and easy garlic lime pork chops with Instant Pot refried beans for dinner with a southwest salad.
15-May... 186.8... -0.4
Wow.. went over calories by more than 1,000 yesterday and cooked salty foods, but Skinnytaste recipes and down 0.4. I think my body wanted that food. We will be really good today and will do my week 7 C25K 25 minute run. Tomorrow is Knotts Berry Farm with the hubby and lots of walking, but will be enjoying some beer, an awesome beef dip sandwich and even a bite of funnel cake.. although I will enter all that to keep myself honest. I know I will be up so to be down just a little more would be really nice. We shall see, but feeling really good no matter what. And eating like a queen. My dad was super happy with his Skinnytaste birthday meal!
16-May...185.6... -1.2
Ask and ye shall receive. I think eating more often is helping me. I also ran the full 25 minutes + some of the C25K week 7 day 1. Super proud of myself. Not as sore running outside as I was the first time. Made Gina's Skinnytaste parmesan crisps with a little bruschetta tomato mixture on top for a delicious 60 calorie snack. She is my hero. I'm gonna ride this high all week! 185!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Crazy!!!!!!!!!
17-May...190.8... +5.2
Such BS.... Calories were double what they should have been, but that is only a half lb.
18-May... 190.2... -0.6
Completely pissed.
19-May... 189.6... -0.6
Little by little. Not fair to tease me so with that 185 then crush me back to 190. One day did that. Can't be.
20-May... 189.4... -0.2
If I finish this 10 days with a gain after being up to start with I'm going to cry! No alcohol tonight and getting my butt on that treadmill. My knee is feeling the street.

SW R77: 144.5
Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 – 143.5 – Glad to see I went down a pound.
05/14 – 143.5 – Although I’m glad I’m not up from Sunday’s calories, I am noticing that my trend weight has gone up a pound. I’ve gotten a little lax in measuring and weighing my food, so I’m going to start paying more attention.
05/15 – 142.5 - Drank plenty of water yesterday and stuck to 1400 calories.
05/16 – 143.5 – Well the body is going to do what the body wants to do…I drank plenty of water and kept at 1400 calories.
05/17 - 142.5 - Very busy day today, but also a lot of sodium, so we'll see what happens tomorrow.
05/18 - 143.5 - I almost forgot to weigh this morning. This was after breakfast and several cups of coffee. I've had a semi high calorie day, but I've done a lot of physical work today too. We'll see how this all plays out tomorrow.

Yesterdays Stats: 1047 Calories In / 2415 Calories Out. 20 Net Carbs. 11,316 Total Steps & 4.81 Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 37 minutes

Too much on my mind & didn’t feel tired. I will likely sleep like a baby tonight. I took a 75 minute walk to offset the extra 180 calories I ate. Kitchen remodel slowly continues so I have no livingroom floor to dance in still
05/17 …..xxxxx …..
05/18 …..194.1 ….. I missed the weigh-in & post yesterday. So busy trying to go through all the boxes & laundry baskets full of food before putting it into my new kitchen cabinets. Checking dates etc. Kitchen not done yet, but cabinets are in. Over the next couple of weeks will be some electrical/lighting, drywall repair & paint. Just trying to clean it up before the holiday weekend so I can have my livingroom & kitchen back and maybe even have guests for the holiday weekend. I would love for my DB & DSIL to be able to come up from downstate & stay the weekend. Grab & go food again. So I sniffed carbs & quick foods and it shows on the scale. Not worried. Mainly water & I know what to do. It’s just going to be a tough week with little time for self-care.
05/19 …..194.1 ….. Went out for a quick dinner and tried to make decent choices though eating at home is always closer to plan. Stayed very busy with the kitchen projects. Calories pretty good. Carbs a bit high. No LNS was a plus. Yesterdays Stats: Best guess on food info 1781 Calories In / 2456 Calories Out. 86 Net Carbs. 11,729 Total Steps & 4.96 Miles after standing in place a lot working at filling kitchen cabinets back up. (not done with that project yet!) IF 16:8 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 36 minutes. Very cold yesterday. Raining & storming today. No planned exercise yesterday but a short 10 minute walk & all the housework. Today I clean cabins which will require running in & out of the rain. Ugg. I am going to eat at home today & make better choices. Working on water today too.
05/20 …..194.1 ….. Scale the same. Busy….busy…..busy…..Yesterday’s Stats: 1438 Calories In / 2515 Calories Out. I’m not sure how many net carbs but I know it was over my limit. 12,365 Total Steps & 5.23 Total Miles. IF 16:8 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 9 minutes. No planned exercise. Cleaned 5 cabins & worked hard in my kitchen. Lots of sheets & towel laundry. Tomorrow I travel & that will be reflected on my final weigh day after tomorrow. I’m not happy about that.

SW this round (5/12): 144.2
05/13 145 Up 0.8 from yesterday, but not too bad considering it was Mother's Day!
05/14 144.2 Started my gradual bumping up of carbs yesterday (from 20 to 25 net for this round). I totally expected to be up today because extra carbs are accompanied by extra water, plus, I didn't hydrate well yesterday, so this is a nice surprise.
05/15 144.2 Hmmm, again? Not sure why, but it's not a problem. A week left to try to reach my GW for this challenge. 17 days in, I think I'm more fatigued on keto...paying attention to this...
05/16 145 I think this is going to be round of maintaining, not losing. It's okay. I dropped some solid pounds and inches over the last two rounds, so I'm happy with my overall progress! Not expecting any more big whooshes for a while.
05/17 144 Yep. As predicted. Up, down, up.
05/18 144 Lol. Good thing I had low expectations for this round!
05/19 144 At least it's not going up?
05/20 142.8 Hey, finally moved down! I'm still expecting this to be a maintenance round, but we'll see.

05/13 - 137.2 (-2.4lbs) I don’t know if this is real or if it’s just going to shoot back up to 139. It has been back and forth the last several days. I should be in this range but will see what happens in the coming days.
05/14 - 138.7 (+1.5lbs) and there it is 😆 I’m sure it’s a bit of DOMS causing water retention. Im just going to accept the ups and downs as the new normal. At least it’s not 139s.
05/15 - 139 (+.3) can’t say I’m surprised. Felt bloated last night. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
05/16 - 139.4 (+.4) 😂
05/17 -139.9 (+.5) DOMS? Bloated? Both? No idea. Very annoyed right now though.
05/18 - 141.1 (+1.2) I did eat late and made poor food choices. Woke up full so I’m sure that’s part of it. I know it’s not all real weight though. Just going to get back to eating very clean and not eating out at all. Hopefully things get back on track soon.
05/19 - 139 (-2.1) huge fluctuations. Water retention like crazy. Going to take a few days break from training and hyper focus on eating healthy at home.
05/20 - 137.6 (-1.4) no strength training to give my body rest and ate healthy (per usual) didn’t eat out at all.

5/13 No Scale
5/14 No Scale
5/15 172.9 I'm pretty happy with that number considering some of the questionable choices I made while visiting my sick friend. Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. He is stable but still in critical condition. I drove home yesterday; I had to come to work today. Luckily I have a job that allows me to take 3 unexpected vacation days with no warning or penalty. I think what saved me weight wise is that I walked twice a day. I found a couple of nice trails close to the hospital in case I needed to go back quickly. Sitting for 12 or 14 hours in the hospital would have been too much. I can tell I'm stressed, MS is making my legs tingle and despite sleeping well my body is aching all over. I'm trying to decide if I should walk tonight. Part of me thinks it would make me feel good mentally, part of me thinks my body needs a break.
5/16 171.2 Maybe all that walking made a difference. I don't know. I took off yesterday afternoon. Came home and napped for an hour or two then planted flowers and did everything I could to relax. I am feeling much better today. My friend is still stable which is all we can ask for right now.
5/17 171.2 I'm still happy because this weight is lower than my round goal. Of course, I'd love to go even lower in the next 5 days but I'm just going to stick with the program and see what happens. I haven't walked since Monday. I looked it up on Mapmyfitness and I walked 20 miles last week. Stress walking at it's best. I wanted to go last night but it was in the '90s so no walking outside and the thought of going to the gym didn't appeal to me. It's going to be in the high 80's but cloudy this afternoon, I think I'll be alright. Happy Friday ya'll.
5/18 171.5 I did walk 2.5 miles but was getting hot and stopped. Ate at maintenance, so the slight bump is not freaking me out. Definitely getting a walk in this morning then yard work before the rain comes.
5/19 170.4 I didn’t expect that. I wasn’t able to walk due to rain. My friend is doing ok. He was off the ventilator but he wasn’t getting enough oxygen so they put him back on. The nurse called and put the phone up to his ear. My nephew and his gf were here and we all talked. The nurse said he smiled through the call. It’s hard being so far away.
5/20 No scale. Flew to New Orleans for work today. Spent a couple of hours walking around the French Quarter and a short mile on a trail that was actually kind of boring. The one that I wanted to walk that is near a swamp was flooded
My watch says I walked 8.78 miles. Hopefully, that will make up for the beignets 
I won't know until Friday. Still tracking. I ate back all my exercise calories plus 84... Don't care I've never been here before and the rest of the week will be meeting after boring meeting.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 – 201.0 – Not the best way to start the week or a new challenge, but I’m trying to keep it in perspective and use these ten days to reinforce good habits. Rain all day, so I concentrated on indoor tasks and planned, pre-logged, and prepped most of my meals for the work week. Didn’t want to miss my walking goal on Day 1, so I walked briskly indoors for 35 minutes, incorporating 45 flights of steps to keep my heart rate up. Logging, calories, and water: all good. Wrapping up the evening with a big stack of papers – only 3 more sets to go!
05/14 – 199.2 – Now that’s looking better! Cold and rainy again – brrr! Did 40 minutes walking around a local mall instead of heading home for my planned lunch. Grabbed something on the fly, but kept to my calorie allowance. Drank my water and got through 2 more sets of student essays. Only 1 more to go!
05/15 – 198.8 – Last day of classes! It was nice to see the sun after so much rain. Finished my last stack of papers before class and got the final grades entered before dinner. Then I rewarded my patient pup with a nice long walk in the park (75 min). Started sorting through my summer clothes, trying some on before deciding what works for now and what may (hopefully) need to be replaced by the end of the season. Under my calorie limit, plenty of water, and an invigorating walk! Best of all, the grading is behind me. Summer break starts now
05/16 – 197.6 – First day of break! 50-minute walk on the boardwalk before a laid-back lunch date with my mom and my daughter. Pre-planning the rest of my meals helped me stay on track today.
05/17 – 197.0 – Surprised to see another drop, but I had a gain last round despite being pretty good. Skipped the walk because my feet were hurting and spent the morning shopping online for athletic shoes and sandals with good arch support. Gorgeous day, but energy and motivation were low. Sushi dinner and not enough water. Won’t be surprised to see a bounce back up this weekend, but I'm trying to focus on the trend rather than the day-to-day fluctuations.
05/18 – 197.0 – Lovely day! Did a bit of light gardening and made a trip to the nursery for some pond plants and annuals for the deck boxes. Hoping to finish those on Monday if it doesn’t rain. Walked for an hour before dinner, enjoying one of the narrow woodland trails before it’s overgrown. Skipped the wine and stayed under my calorie limit to bank a little for a dinner out tomorrow. Hope it works!
05/19 – 197.0 – Holding steady. Made an early start in the garden this morning and finished the new perennial bed at the end of the driveway. Then down to the beach for a long walk and a calorie splurge lunch. Over on calories and way over on sodium, so we’ll see what tomorrow brings.
05/20 – 197.4 – Little bump. Planned to get back on track today, but an extended power outage and a late meeting upended my lunch and dinner plans. Eating both meals out put me a little over on calories (but still at a deficit) and a lot over on sodium. Heat spiked today. Got some of the pots filled but still have the bulk of the container planting to do. Met my step goal but didn’t get to the park for a walk. Two more days to go – hoping to make them good ones!

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 184.9 lbs came back from a fun convention last night. I didn’t count my calories Friday to Sunday, but this was the plan for this weekend ever since I started my MFP journey, so I don’t feel bad about it. Now back on track!
05/14 183.2 lbs expected water and PMS weight drop
05/15
05/16
05/17
05/18
05/19 181.9 lbs I fell off the wagon for a few days. Still tired to eat mostly clean, but didn’t log and had a few sins in between. So I’m ok with what the scale says and as I have every meal prepped for the coming week this week should be much easier for me!
05/20 180.0 lbs I might still make my goal for this challenge!
05/21 179.3 lbs 🎉 I’m so happy! I need to get used to meal prepping, it helps me tremendously with not overeating and I do snack much less during the day, too!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 77 (round 9 for me !) I'm in for another round !
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 the same at the end of the round as the start as I have a weeks holiday abroad during the round ?
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
End of round 76 130.2
05/13 DNW - yesterday flew to Italy for a week. Managed to walk just over 5 miles, some in the airport before the flight and then a wander around after we checked in the hotel. Going to try to make healthy choices, but we are on holiday so !! At least we have good scope for good walking and lots is either steep up or down hills, plenty calorie burning !!!
05/14 DNW - 9 miles walked yesterday including 3 down the hill to Sorrento and of course then back up at the end of the afternoon !!
05/15 DNW - caught ferry over to Capri yesterday after walking down to the marina, did loads of walking over alot up hill and of course walked back up the hill to the hotel at the end of the day; 12 miles walked and 224 flights of stairs !!
05/16 DNW - 11.5 miles walked, tried to make healthy food choices, lots of water
05/17 DNW - 10 miles walked, still within calories as best I can count - it's difficult when eating out and not in charge of preparing. Caught the train to Herculaneum, amazing set of ruins and allegedly in better condition than Pompeii if a smaller site.
05/18 DNW - walked down the hill again to catch the bus to a lovely fishing village on the Amalfi coast, walked all the way down to the sea and later back to the top for bus back to Sorrento and walk all the way back up the hill; 10.25 miles walked and 161 flights of stairs.
05/19 DNW - just short of 10 miles walked & 103 flights of stairs yesterday. Fly back home today, day of reckoning to log in again !!!
05/20 135.8 – oh my giddy aunt !!!!! 5 ½ pounds up, higher than when I joined my first challenge 8 rounds ago!! and I thought I'd made healthy food choices and walked loads everyday. Oh well back at it. I read sometime ago that flying does bloat so hoping some of this is due to that and will quickly melt away. Onwards and hopefully downwards.
05/21 133 – heading in the right direction (thank goodness !!), just under 8 ¾ miles walked, 1,126 calories consumed 97 fl oz water consumed

5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle mass
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-77 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last round below my maintenance range. I like the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135.
Best thing about today: Celebrating 24th anniversary of marriage to a wonderful man. He loves pasta, so I’ll fix pasta for my husband (zucchini spirals for me). I thought about making a desert, but he has cookies and his beloved coffee ice cream, so I won’t tempt myself with something I like, too. I had a first today, helping a friend deliver “Meals on Wheels” to folks. It was enjoyable, and I look forward to doing it again.

05/13-94.9 kg and 9,300 steps. First day in and both starting high and cheating on my step count. Not good, but I also needed to rest after walking like crazy on Saturday. Will try to squeeze a walk in the evening and maybe during the day. The weather is too nice.
05/14-94.6 kg and 12,900 steps. Long evening walk as promised! Yoyo weight also 🙄
05/15-94.9 kg and 16,100 steps. Major walk yesterday and thinking a crazy idea of sign up to a race (Walking. Really aint going to run) next week. Looking at this weight fluctuations makes me pissed
05/16-94.5 kg and 10,400 steps. Took a lunch walk yesterday. Signed up to the race.
05/17-94.9 kg and 20,700 steps. Yes 20k!! Will not see my goal though i think
05/18-95.7 kg and 13,400 steps. WHAT WHAT WAAAAT???

05/20-95.6 kg and 11,800 steps. Dragged my self for a "jog" yesterday even though was really tired. Was proud. The weight shows really strange things. Must be the carbs or lack of sleep. Hope ot is a glitch.
05/21-95.6 kg and 15,200 steps. Mafe it through my first race! Wasn't as hard as I expected it to be! 5.5km in 46m! Dd not help with the weight though. Not sure what is up with that.

13/05 - 201.6 - up a pound. Not a great start I am not great at weekends. I had a long walk and plenty of water.
14/05 - 199.8 - down a lot. Got a lot of exercise and standing in yesterday. Food very good and lots of water.
15/05 - 200.2 - up little today but although I was good with food yesterday there was a bit too much bread. Hopefully with a bit of exercise and no bread today I will be down tomorrow.
16/05 - 199.2 - happy with that loss. Dinner was light yesterday and everything else was good. Dinner today is not going to be light so I expect to put some of it back on so I will have to be extra careful with everything else.
17/05 - 199.8 - up again but still under the 200s
18/05 - 199.8 - happy to stay the same
19/05 - 199.0 - food was ok yesterday and I got plenty of exercise
