05/26--206.1 I can't believe that I am down over 3 lbs after my trip to visit my parents. While I didn't eat a huge amount I did go out for dinner twice, I didn't do much exercise, was resting my hip, I didn't drink much water, and I was expecting some water retention from the flight. Well, my hip feels better, but not 100%. I'm supposed to see my trainer today, so I'll see how that goes. My hubby cleaned our house and even cleaned my car while I was gone...I should go out of town more often.
Goal for today is to go food shopping, get back to my normal eating, and just relax.
05/27--207.4 Not surprised about the bump. Worked out with trainer yesterday which was the first time I worked out in about a month, so definitely some water retention. The workout was great. My hip held up for most of the workout, but I didn't finish the whole workout as my hip started to tighten up a little near the end of the workout. I am going to try and go out for a short run today and see how it goes. Going to see a movie and then relaxing for the rest of the day.
05/28--207.8 I was able to go out for a short run yesterday to test the hip and so far so good. There was a lot more walking then usual and some extra stretching, but the hip felt good and still feels good today. Going to trainer tonight. I had a co-worker this morning whisper to me what I've been doing lately because it looks like I've lost a lot of weight. What's funny is that I haven't lost much weight recently, but as someone whose 5'10" it takes a lot more of a weight loss for the weight to show. Add in the fact that I've started to get back serious to lifting weights over the past 3 months, it's now that the results of all the hard work are showing up. That is something that is hard to come to terms with when we are losing weight. Even though it would be nice to have the scale show a loss every day, every other day, or even every week it's not always the case and that's ok...it's a marathon, not a sprint.
05/29--208.1 Not concerned about the recent weight gain. I know that I am bloated right now, probably my digestive system still dealing with eating foods that I am allergic to from a couple of days ago. Worked out with my trainer yesterday an hip is still bothering me. He suggested I go see a PT, so I've booked an appointment for next week. After the trainer I was feeling frustrated because of the hip and the fact that I probably won't be able to run my 10K next Saturday even after all of the training I had done over the last couple of months, but then I had to remind myself that it is more important to make sure that I don't injure myself even more and make things worse. I also have a 7 miler scheduled in July that I running with my SIL that we had planned for months ago, so it's more important for me to get better now and be healthy to run that race.
05/30--208.1 Worked out with trainer tonight, we mainly focussed on working on the upper body. It was so busy at work today that I didn't get a lot of water in today.

05/23- 321.8- I’m really surprised by this. Yesterday was a celebration day in my house, and we had pie. I ate a large portion. And then me and my husband stayed up till 4 am playing a game together. And I woke up feeling swollen, with lots of inflammation. So maybe it’s a false low, or maybe I didn’t mess things up too much
05/24- 321.6- woohoo! I’m so excited by this momentum and I can’t wait to see it continue!
05/25- 321.6- I’ll take it, holding steady!
05/26- 323.2- I am incredibly bummed to see this. I know it’s probably water and inflammation but after seeing good numbers this is a real bummer.
05/27- 321.8- There we go, that’s what I want to see
05/28- 321.4 woohoo! Glad to see this number!
05/29- 321.2
05/30- 321.4 I fell off the wagon, but I’m ready to get back on

ROUND 78 (Round 20 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 54-70 = 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
05/23 134.4 Ten days go by so quickly! Yesterday, I did a 3.5 mile walk with my dog, Thor, in the morning and strength training in the afternoon. Today was a rest day, and I played Canasta with friends. My shoulders were sore today, so I’m glad it was a rest day.
05/24 134.2 Thor and I walked about 3.5 miles today. We jogged about a half mile of it, only up-hill and flat areas—no down-hill. My knee isn’t bothering me now, the orthotics have relieved the Morton’s Neuroma problem in my toes, and I’m pretty sure I can work up to running again. I miss running 5K and 10K races. I’m sticking with the strength training, too, and that helps my knees.
05/25 132.6 Part of this drop is because we didn’t get to bed until 3 a.m., and I didn’t get up until almost 11:30! A late start makes for a short day. Tonight, I don’t plan to stay up that late. I haven’t don’t today’s cardio workout in my strength training program, so I’m about to do that. Tomorrow morning, I leave early to sing, with our gospel group, at a church in the area, so I’ll miss my own church service. Since I lead the singing at my church, I try not to miss very often. My sweet husband will take over tomorrow, but he’d rather just play his guitar and let me lead.
05/26 134.6 I intended to go to bed early last night, but it was after 2 a.m., and up again at 6:30. (sigh) That always results in a higher scale number, but it’s still under maintenance, and I had a good day. The morning concert went well, and I took a nap before working in the yard. I didn’t get my strength training in, but tomorrow’s another day.
Before dark yesterday, my husband brought Thor in and said Thor had alerted on a rattlesnake in the yard. My husband said he’d take care of it, so I continued with my cardio workout. A few minutes later, DH knocked on the back door and again on the front door before I could get to either, so I went out to look for him. I grabbed a hoe and heard the snake in the front yard before my husband showed up with a spade. Well, the rattlesnake waited for me to go back in the house and get my revolver loaded with snake shot, and I ended his threat to our tranquility. What I didn’t realize until later was that I was in the front yard, shooting a snake, while only wearing short shorts and a bra. Fortunately, we live in the country, and it’s possible only my husband saw me. Praise God, all is well.
05/27 133.8 I said I was skipping my strength training workout last night, but, at 1 a.m., I just had to do it. This morning, 11 a.m., I completed my cardio and stretching workout. So, I’m still on track with my strength training program. I’m afraid if I give myself a break, I won’t stop with just one. That’s how I gained back the 40 pounds I had to lose again! I want to think I’ve learned my lesson. Time will tell. No walk for Thor this morning, since I was up until 4 a.m. and didn’t get out of bed this morning before it got too hot to take him for a long walk. I will do better tomorrow morning.
05/28 135 Thor and I got a walk and some jogging in yesterday, but it was a busy day/evening. It was after midnight before I finished my Bible study, so I put off posting the study and my weight.
05/29 133.8 I started the day with my strength training, delivered meals on wheels, then took my car in to repair a leaky tire. It seems I ran over a screw. The tire shop was close to a Home Depot, so I walked over and bought a rug so my shoes don’t slip on some of the exercises I’m doing. Today was the first day of my third week doing the Chalean Extreme strength training program. It’s not easy, but I already feeling stronger. Chalene Johnson teaches how to exercise (including squats and lunges) without hurting my knees. I appreciate that. About 10 years ago, I had to quit a boxercise class because I wasn’t taught that lesson, and my knees were killing me.
05/30 144.4 I didn’t weigh this morning, because the electricity went out during the morning storm, and there wasn’t enough light to read the scale. I played cards with friends, had lunch, ran errands, took a nap, then decided to step on the scale. Now, it’s after midnight, so I need to get to bed so I can take Thor for an early walk before it gets too hot.

Ready for my round 15
OSW 88KG
RSW 71.4 kg (-16. 6 kg) or {-36.5 lbs}
05/23 70.8kg but I'm sure this drop belonged to the last round! 😁
05/24 70.8kg still. Happy with this!
05/25 70.1kg. I think the scale has gone crazy or I've found a sweet spot on my bathroom floor!
05/26 70.1kg on official weigh in Day. Down 1.4kg for the week. 70kg was my old maintenance weight before I put loads on. But now I'm going hidown more to where I was when I 1st lost weight.
05/27 70.0kg 1st major goal and 7th mini goal reached in 20 weeks I'm 18kg {39.6 lbs} down. I haven't been this weight for 5 years!! Next major goal is 63.5 kg which was my maintenance weight 20 years ago.
05/28 70.0kg and happy with it. Waiting for my usual blip up after a big loss but I won't complain if it doesn't happen! No exercise this week except a bit of yoga... Body needs a break and some stretching.
05/29 70kg again. Still happy with this. Had a huge clothes sort and chuck session yesterday for the whole family... Not quite Konmari but nearly. Inspired me to move onto the rest of the house.
05/30 70kg (was actually 69.95 but I don't believe that level of accuracy so I'm rounding up). All good.
05/31 70kg (69.95 really!) still not bored with seeing this. Went out for ribs and wings last night.. Love Keto! And today I'm on a day trip with my skinny bestie who hardly eats. Scale reading should be interesting tomorrow!

Round 78
I'm 32, 5' 2" female, from Glasgow, Scotland
USW: 172 lbs (Jul 2018)
R78 SW: 142.5 lbs
R78 GW: 140 lbs
GW: 133 lbs
UGW: 126 lbs
R78 Goal: Have been in maintenance (+/- 3 lbs) since December 2017, going for weight loss again as still not happy with what I see.
This is my first week back following Slimming World alongside calorie counting so this is my first round of 10 days to give me some accountability.
10K steps daily (a bit harder to do on the weekends but will try)
23/05 - 141.5lbs (-1lb) and 10,311 steps
Was expecting a maintain or small gain this morning as I had the most amazing banana ice cream float last night, it was free so who am I to turn down free ice cream?! 2 gym sessions on the planner for today; getting my new weight training programme from the gym instructor at lunchtime, then it's circuits after work before my usual 20 min walk home. I always tend to eat 'better' on the days I exercise so expecting a loss tomorrow 0:)
24/05 - 140lbs (-1lb) and 13,267 steps
Very achy and sore today after starting a new weight training programme, and I did a Circuits class last night too. I'm really hoping I don't blow my calories over the weekend - my snacking tends to be out of control at weekends which is why I'm doing this challenge. Had my 7am workout this morning and will do a Functional HIIT class on my lunch break. Food all planned out with an extra 300 calories built in on my gym instructors advice.
25/05 - 138lbs (-2lbs) and 13,471 steps
Had a really good day of eating and exercise, the DOMS were real!! However, after dinner we had an unexpected offer of a night out so although it pleases me to see 138 on the scales, it's a false reading as is most likely down to dehydration.
I'm really, really ill so wont be eating much and trying to drink as much water as I can today.
26/05 - 138.5lbs (+0.5lbs) and 7,539 steps
Expected the small gain after the previous night of partying. I managed to eat 2 slices of pizza before I crashed out at half past 7. Didn't get my 10k steps and not likely to get them today either as the weather is rubbish.
27/05 - 143.75 (+5.25lbs) and 7,309 steps
Well this was always gonna happen. Its all fun and games until the hangover munchies kick in and you make horrendous food choices. Most of that gain will go over the next couple of days. It's bank holiday Monday and I'm not at work, but I'm still going to the gym later on.
28/05 - 140.5lbs (-3.25lbs) and 10,938 steps
Delighted to see the bulk of that gain from yesterday has gone. I had a great sleep last night and am feeling much, much better today. My mental health took a hit yesterday, I was so down in the dumps and it took every fibre of my being not to go on a sugar rampage. I didn't make the gym but I did keep pushing to get out and get my steps. I'm out for lunch today with work colleagues and have pre ordered the best choice on the menu (a chicken salad). It means though, that I won't have a gym session but I will still get my walk to and from work done.
29/05 - 141.5lbs (+1lbs) and 11,888 steps
Just one of those things, not going to get upset over a pound. After all, it's most likely coz I'm a bit bunged up. Looking forward to getting back to the gym today and REALLY looking forward to lunch - yesterday's work lunch was awful; not worth the time, effort, money or calories. At least today, I have made my own lunch from scratch and I know it's worth it! Happy hump day!
30/05 - 145.25 (+3.75) and 12,336 steps
Yesterday was not a good day. I had a panic attack when I got to work and on my way home, I slipped and cut both my knees. When I eventually got home, I was so miserable. I took my meds, had a bath and ate my prepared lunch. And then proceeded to eat 1,341 calories of sweets and chocolate, followed by a chinese takeaway for dinner. These things happen...BUT then I had a rare visit from Aunt Flo this morning, so there's the explanation for my behaviour and 'some' of the gain. Today will be a better day. There are only 2 weigh ins left of this challenge and I WILL see 141 again.
31/05 - 142.5 (-2.75) and 12,415 steps
Much better day all round. Slept well, ate well and exercised on top of hitting my steps. Gym instructor has increased my calories to 1,650 a day which makes me feel a bit more in control. I'm really praying I can stick with it this weekend. I have a check in with him in 2 weeks time and I want to give him the news I haven't 'burst' my calories. Need to drink more water!

Round 10 for me, and have been slacking some. I feel like I am losing my motivation and hubby starting to eat out again. This makes it very hard to lose weight, at least for me. I don’t always have will power to stay away from the foods I don’t need. So this round going to really focus on getting my head back into it.Round 68 SW: 225.8 – EW: 219.8 (↓6lbs)

Day/Weight/Comment
05/23 – 195.8 not off to a good start again (a gain). I ate too much last night, and can’t let it bother me and get my head back in the right place. I am losing motivation early in my weight loss (its only 3 months since I started over again and been steady)
05/24 – 193.4 this was a surprise, was not expecting
05/25 – 195.6 I am sabotaging myself and I don’t know how to stop. I have to get my head back in the game. Last night I was binge eating ( I finished the fish and at more watermelon and didn’t log it.
05/26 – I did not weigh, skipped out this weekend, have been binge eating primarily healthy just over abundance of choices. I have been struggling and just gave in to the binging.
05/27 – 196.0 I expected higher with all my binge eating this weekend.

05/29 – 195.2

Sun 26/05: 164.9: Goals ✅ Both my knee and elbow are definitely on the mend. I regard it as a win if I can maintain at the minute because of my enforced inactivity. I'm doing what I can, which is precious little. But it's increasing day by day, so happy with that. Had a great visit to GoTs exhibition in Belfast with DYD and DH yesterday
Mon 27/05: 164.4: Goals ✅ Planned to plant up containers for my terrace today, but rain stopped play. It's early days yet. I will get them done when the rain passes through.
Tue 28/05: 163.6: Goals ✅ Wasn't really expecting that, but will take it. Spent time planting up and moving heavy pots around the garden, and cutting hedges.
Wed 29/05: 163.0: Goals ✅ Delighted that it’s still going in the right direction.
Thu 30/05: 163.1: Goals ✅Just a wee bounce.

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.

UGW - somewhere in the mid-130's. Will see what's attainable when I get in the 130's
Goal for round 78 - would like to see another pound gone. Will be a challenging round with a holiday weekend and my TOM due to start during this one. I’m going to use this accountability thread to stay focused.
5/23 - 142.0. Shocked at the drop considering I ate at a restaurant for lunch and had a little bigger dinner than usual because friends were over. Wins: short weight lifting session and 2.5 mile walk. Made a good choice at a restaurant, I know those meals are full of sodium but calorie-wise it was low with lots of veggies. Need to work on water intake, still feel dehydrated this morning.
5/24 -142.0. Glad to see this number stick around another day! Wins yesterday: 5 miles walked and a gentle yoga class. Hydrated well after waking up feeling dehydrated. Went a little over calorie target but not by much. 3 day weekend ahead with lots of fun plans, I'm hoping I have the self-control to stay close to my calorie target each day and at least maintain this weight.
5/25 - 141.8. Liking this trend! TOM coming soon so enjoying it while it lasts 😊. Wins yesterday: weight lifting session, hydrated well, successfully avoided cake and pizza at a neighborhood party. I did have some fun snacks though so I was able to indulge a bit without going overboard - used up my calories on stuff I enjoy more.
5/26 - 142.9. Uugghhh!!!! I get so frustrated at this. We went to a cookout yesterday and I had a burger and some chips but stayed within a deficit, no alcohol and no dessert. I also did a really tough HIIT class and a 2.75 mile walk. I’m really hoping this is a combo of sodium/red meat and TOM coming this week and it will drop off later this week. I feel bloated today.
5/27 - 142.9 again. I really hope this is TOM bloating 😩. Took a bodycombat class and walked 3 miles, hydrated well. Went to the last of 3 parties for the weekend, friend’s birthday so I did have a small cheesecake serving (made in cupcake tins so it was small) but other than that food choices were good. No plans today thankfully so maybe I can lose some of this bloat??
5/28 - 142.2. Some of the bloat gone at least, would like to see a loss overall in this 10 day stretch so hopefully the rest drops soon. Wins yesterday: 4 mile run, 2.5 miles walked. Stayed within a deficit. Hydrated, but of course could do more to hydrate in this heat.
5/29 - 141.8. Wins yesterday: tough HIIT workout outdoors, 3 miles walked. Stayed within a deficit and hydrated fairly well. Had a laser treatment done yesterday and am not to get flushed or overheated today to combat swelling. That means I won't be very active. I need my calorie intake to be on point today.
5/30 - 141.1. I got on the scale twice to make sure that was right! With no exercise yesterday, and a little overindulgence with a cupcake, I assumed I'd go up or stay the same. I've hit my goal for this challenge which is exciting. I have a work luncheon I have to attend today, will try to make a good choice so I don't see this go up too much tomorrow.
5/31 - 140.9. Shocked at another small drop as I ate out for lunch and it was heavier than my usual meals. Wins: RPM class and 2.5 mile walk. Ate a lighter dinner due to the big lunch. Did not drink enough water, will work on that today.
