8/1 No Scale Didn't exercise yesterday but I should have time tonight. I did stay within calories and not too bad on sodium - even got in more water than I normally do on travel days. Probably won't exercise tomorrow unless the weather cooperates enough to get in an evening walk after the four-hour drive. I'm enjoying my time with the BF. He's back on the road next week, so I will savor this time.

8/2 No Scale Walked/hiked three after work then went to dinner. It's very hard not to overeat at a tapas place with a Spanish boyfriend. He wants to try everything! I am not complaining just stating reality Obviously, I had to do some serious estimations when I logged it but I think I did ok. The good thing is you only eat half of anything and there are loads of veggies. My favorite were these fried plantains chips with black beans and chimichurri. I wish I knew the exact numbers on them, I'd go back just for those. Happy Friday everyone. Hug 'em if you got 'em

8/3 167.4 I’m fine with this. Driving yesterday and not exercising, eating at weird times, and this after spending two days eating every meal with a well intentioned BF. I’m pretty happy today. Just finished walking 5 miles and I’m taking my recovering friend to lunch and grocery shopping.

CW 133
RGW 130 I know this looks aggressive, but I ended last round up 2.5 lbs, despite being on track for most of it!

Day/Weight/Comment:
08/01: 132 Good. Still coming down from my upward blip at the end of last round!
08/02: 131 Excellent. Now my round goal weight doesn't look so crazy. However, it will be a light 3 days of exercise. I had a biopsy today, so exercise is limited to walking (with no vigorous arm swings!) Also trying to avoid the carby snacks calling me!
08/03: 131 😁 Slightly light calorie day yesterday cause I wasn't hungry at dinner. Went for a short walk with an ice pack stuffed in my sports bra. That's one way to beat the heat! 😉

Posting weight and comments each evening.

Age: 73; Height 5’2”; Female
SW: 227lbs (Mar 2014)
LW: 153 (Oct 2016)
Aim for 2019 ~ reach 155 💐
Aim for each round ~ Weigh less at the end than I did at the beginning
UGW: 153

I am FOCUSED on heathy food choices and DETERMINED to achieve my goals!

01/08: 167.8: Goals: 🌻 Have been steadily discarding holiday baggage since Saturday. Slowly but surely, it's shifting.
02/08: 167.8: Goals: 🌻 Holding steady is good.
03/08: 167.5: Goals: 🌻 Oops! Yesterday was a typo. I have fixed it.

Round 83: (Last round I posted for)

Fri 12/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ Still holding steady.
Sat 13/07: 163.5: Goals: ✅ We finally got our we boat back in the water, and the new engine is so quiet, and no nasty fumes either. Result! Now all we need is a few warm sunny days to enjoy it.
Sun 14/07: 164.2: Goals: Meh!!!
Mon 15/07: 166.2: Goals: There are no excuses.

I 😈 choose instant gratification over sensible eating at a family buffet yesterday. I haven't done that for some time. It did not go unpunished. My new healthy body rebelled big time. I spent an wretched evening feeling bloated and uncomfortable, with an extra big a big kick up the a** when I stepped on the scale this morning. Now, I know I haven't put on 2lbs of weight overnight, (though I may well have with the food I ate), and a lot of it is probably be water weight. But enough is enough, and too much is just plain daft. We all do daft things from time to time. The trick is to put it behind you and move on. I am choosing to have a few reset days of light eating to see if I can redress my blowout yesterday. Though if the truth be told, I have been sliding most of the week. I know this is only a blip. Nothing gets in my way when I'm on a mission.

Goals: ✅ Later: Noticed I had the wrong date for my post this morning, so I’ve fixed it. Hopefully back on track.
Tue 16/07: 164.0: Goals: ✅😁 Sticking close to my goals has paid off. It must have been water weight!
Wed 17/07: 164.2: Goals: ✅ Normal fluctuation. Still keeping strong.
Thu 18/07: 163.9: Goals: ✅normal fluctuations.
Fri 19/07: 164.1: Goals: ✅Normal fluctuations!
Sat 20/07: 163.8: Goals ✅
With muscle %age improving, I'm happy that the scale is not increasing. I have no scale this week as I am on holiday, so I will give Round 84 a miss. Will be back with you for Round 85.

Round 82:

Tue 02/07: 162.4: Goals: ✅Just trying to hold it steady.
Wed 03/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅
Thu 04/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅Had a busy day being foster mum to my daughter's 2 fur babies. Jack is very used to being with us, and is no trouble. Sydney is fairly new, and very nervous, and we haven't really got to know him until this week. DH is the doggie person in our house, but Sydney won't go near him, so I'm it! Worse than having a toddler in the house.
Fri 05/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Lots of walking and gardening today.
Sat 06/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Lots of garden work done today. Perfect weather with a bit of a breeze to take the edge off the heat.
Sun 07/07: 162.6: Goals: ✅ Normal fluctuation.
Mon 08/07: 162.5: Goals: ✅ Another plateau. 😏
Tue 09/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ Drat! The weekend caught up with me!
Wed 10/07: 163.4: Goals: ✅ *sigh* Keeping on keeping on!
Thu 11/07: 163.6: Goals: ✅ I was quite disappointed with this result until I noticed my muscle %age has increased since last week. I have been working hard on lower body strength for a couple of weeks. Also yesterday, DH asked me if I had lost weight again. It just goes to show that Progress isn't always about the scale dropping. Looking forward to the next round, and making more progress! 😂

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• 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.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

I'm in and very excited for Round 85! The last two rounds have been busy for me, but I don't have a lot of other activities going on for the next 10 days, so I want to step everything up a little for this round.

Age: 31
Height: 5'8"
OSW - 169.8 lbs (Sep 2018)
RSW - 146.8 lbs
RGW - 146.0 lbs
UGW: 145 lbs

Round 81: SW 150.2, EW 149.6 (- 0.6 lb), Round Avg = 149.7
Round 82: SW 148.4, EW 148.2 (-0.2 lb), Round Avg = 148.3 (-1.4 lb)
Round 83: SW 148.0, EW 148.0 (+/- 0.0 lb), Round Avg = 148.2 (-0.1 lb)
Round 84: SW 148.4, EW 147.8 (-0.6 lb), Round Avg = 147.9 (-0.3 lb)

Round 85 Goals:
- Practice push-ups every day. I want to be able to do at least 5 on my toes without stopping by the end of August.
- 3 tumblers of water at work/day, 3 workouts/week, and 3 times walking around the neighborhood.
- Nearly every night I have a little sweet snack after we put the kid to bed...it usually fits into my calories, but I'm wondering if I really need it or if it's just a habit. I want to try to not have a late night sweet 5/10 days this round.

Day / Weight / Comment

08/01 - 146.8 I seem to have a very special ability to get a nice low weight on the first day of a round, so that it's hard to compare back to at the end! But I jest, I'm not complaining about any loss. Especially because yesterday I gave into those fast food cravings for lunch - but also made time for two back-to-back classes at the gym (a kettlebell/HIIT style class and a tough kickboxing class), tracked all the food and had a reasonable dinner, so it didn't throw off all my progress. Also, besides a couple of lunches out with coworkers, this is the first time I've bought food for lunch since May!
Now that we're in a new month, I'm done with the distractions of July and setting my sights on our beach trip at the end of the month. It was on our Labor Day beach trip last year that I realized how uncomfortable I felt in my body and that I wanted to make changes. So I'm very excited for the changes I've already made, and for the progress I know I can make in the next month. And that starts with this round!
08/02 - 145.6 Well that's 3 Fridays in a row seeing a 145 on the scale! The last two weeks I've gone up over the weekend, so I'm determined not to let that happen this time! Yesterday was good: I had a lot of water, ate soup for lunch and walked to some stores instead of driving, and I made a salad for dinner and packed another serving for my lunch today. I completed 8 continuous inclined pushups on my desk at work, and also a few at home on the kitchen counter. Also no late night dessert!

08/03 - 143.6 Well. Well. What.

What.
I checked like 6 times to make sure this wasn’t a mistake! I doubt it’ll stick around, but a pretty good feeling to know something was working “behind the scenes” even when I didn’t see that on the scale every day. Yesterday was actually closer to maintainence calories than deficit, so I wasn’t expecting this at all!

Day/Weight/Comment
08/01 187.2 – Off to a good start with a nice little drop. Busy morning, so I only had time for coffee before class. On the way home, I stopped for gas and then at the farm stand to pick up a few pots of zinnias to refresh the garden beds. I was ravenous by the time I got to my mom’s for lunch. Fortunately, I had some extra calories to spend. Goals met today!
08/02 187.2 – Got a lot accomplished in the house and garden before I got on the road. So it was another busy morning, but this time I made sure to have a decent breakfast so I’d be less tempted by all the high-calorie rest stop offerings. BBQ for dinner, but I stayed under my calorie limit and met all my goals again today.
08/03 No scale – Having a wonderful time visiting family for our traditional summer crab feast. A bit over on calories and a lot over on salt, but I know I can get back on track and deal with a bounce in the week ahead.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/31 …..199.7….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
08/01 …..202.0 ….. The travel left my activity very low, especially while sitting at the movies too. The Lion King was fantastic. Amazingly realistic! As always, a great story. They built a “Golden Corral” in the city we went to. Visited that restaurant once in 2007 while visiting my sister in Tennessee. Ate less than I used to, but all the wrong (carb filled foods). It was an outing for my son & grandsons (2 July birthdays) Depressed with the scale today but raring to go. Back to business. Lots of work at the cabins & grounds today. I will also try to fit in some prep cooking. Yesterdays stats at best calculation: 2602 Calories In / 1951 Calories Out. 158 Total Carbs (I’m not sure what the net carbs would be). 6084 Total Steps & 2.57 Total Miles. No exercise & no activity showing on my fitbit. A whole day of sitting….sitting….sitting…. but I loved spending the time with my family away from home/work.

08/02 …..198.2 ….. Wow! Goodbye water weight! Cabins will be full this weekend. Between now & the 13th is my busiest and most hard-working time of the year! Lots of movement & activity expected so I plan on trying to keep my diet in line with my activity for 100% success! I did a little prep cooking yesterday & I hope to do more today. Yesterday’s stats: 1380 Calories In / 2659 Calories Out. 45 Net Carbs mainly from Spaghetti Squash Lasagna. 15,091 Total Steps & 6.39 Total Miles. 13/13 fitbit steps hours. I slept 5 hours & 50 minutes which was wonderful for me. I took a 54 minute walk, did aggressive yard work for 25 minutes & I rigorously cleaned cabins for 30 minutes. Have a great weekend everyone!

08/03 …..198.2 ….. Holding steady. I was worried it was a fluke yesterday. Out to dinner with my son yesterday. I haven’t had dinner out with him in a couple of years. Just family dinners at home. He lives about an hour away so the visit was last minute but very nice. Yesterdays stats: 1627 Calories In / 2520 Calories Out. 87 Net Carbs which is a bit of an ouchie. 11,009 Total Steps & 4.66 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 45 minutes & woke up tired but starting work early due to a hot water heater going out in Cabin #6. Replaced while they went downriver kayaking / canoeing. Thank Goodness my go-to repair guy was readily available. I did rigorous room cleaning for 68 minutes. Too busy for my evening walk yesterday due to my son’s visit.

Hi all, this is my third round and excited to see where this next round takes me. I first started my MFP journey in 2015. I dropped down to 138 pounds and went into maintenance. I was fine for awhile until my world went crazy and exercise was no longer a priority. After putting on over 20 pounds, I got back to working out and calorie counting diligently. I have IBS and no gallbladder, so I stick to a low fat diet. I am also hypothyroid which makes losing weight at times challenging. I keep on trucking because the pot of gold at the end of 🌈 is health and an increased life expectancy.

Age: 36
Height 5’2-5’3 been measure both.
HW: 230lbs
SWMFP: 220lbs
CW: 127.2
GW: 115-120
UG: to love my body; even with stretch marks, cellulite and loose skin. Gain muscle and lower body fat.

Day/Weight/Comment

08/01 127.2lbs. Weight is up from yesterday, but I refuse to stress over it unless the scale goes up ten pounds or something crazy. I got my strength training in and will take a walk to end my day. Lesson I’m learning: don’t sweat the small gains.

08/02 127lbs. Today was my rest day. Did a short step aerobic workout and made sure my protein intake was good. I’m starting to like what lifting weights is shaping my body into; really keeps me motivated.

08/03 127lbs. Today was 🥵 hot!! I got my workout 🏋️‍♀️ in early and walked to my doctors and the grocery store. I ate smaller frequent meals so I could have enough calories for the day (eating less is so easy in the summer). My calories have been too low on hotter days. I than turned on my fan and took a nap. Goal for this next week: meal prep and pack snacks for jury duty to get in my calories and protein.

I was 189# when I first started keto (1/1/18), and had gotten down to 150# before I let life interrupt me.

Round 84 (my round 2) SW - 160, AW - 161.2

Round 85 (my round 3)
8/1 - 159.5 - started beef & butter yesterday. Not angry about the weight loss. Am over the headache I had last night.
8/2 - 159 - worked out yesterday, so I have some water retention, but that’s expected. Staying the course with beef & butter.

Day/Weight/Comment
08/01 130.6 Great start to the round!
08/02 131.2 Water retention, maybe. My doctor prescribed IV fluids because I'm not doing well, and yesterday's IV pumped me full of salt, plus I had a craving for even more salt and ate two bowls of popcorn. I'm too far into this journey to freak out over the numbers bouncing around from day to day. At less than 10 lbs from goal (!) I should really be more focused on muscling up a bit rather than weight loss, but I'm starting out pretty weak and tired and finding it tough to get started.
08/03 131.2 Maintaining is good, no complaints.

Ready for my round 22
OSW 88KG
RSW 65.0 kg (-23. 0 kg) or {- 50.7 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started

08/01 65.0kg...well it did say 64.95 but I don't believe the scale is that accurate so I rounded up. At least it moved slightly. My best friend is visiting for a few days... This is my tall, skinny, naturally OMAD, friend who gets all their calories from alcohol! (we currently weigh the same but with a 9 inch height difference 😁) They were supposed to visit for my birthday next week but plans changed so this means I'm going to have my 1st alcoholic drinks since I started losing weight on the 6th January to celebrate early birthday. Thankfully I've always been a hopeless drinker so a couple of gins will do and I'll be back to my teetotal ways!
08/02 64.95 kg again which is really 65!
08/03 64.95kg still. I went out to celebrate my very early birthday (it's next week) and had more alcohol and sugar (no sugar free drinks available where I live) in 3 hours than I have had for the whole of 2019! Definitely so far over 20g of carbs I couldn't even count. Back on it today but with an early coffee as IF is too complicated with a visitor. Remind me of this when I'm complaining about a weight gain in 2 days!! Beach day again today.
08/04 65.5kg and not a big surprise. I was also over on calories yesterday but kept it all Keto. Back to tracking and being strict today. My friend leaves early tomorrow so no more temptations!

Day / Weight/Comment

08/01: 161 (0.0) No change there... Not feeling too good lately, the rheumatologist has added an extra drug for the next 6 months and I know from past experience that it'll be hard going with weight loss this medication makes me nauseous and I get the munchies at the same time with it. I've changed to goals to just sticking to my recommended calorie intake for this round.
08/02: 161 (0.0) Another Status Quo, I think I'm at a plateau which is going to be hard to break through as I'm not doing as much exercise for the moment! Tomorrow, if all goes well, I'll try some static aerobic and that'll be my goal for tomorrow with the 1200 cal intake
08/03: 161 (0.0) Still status quo, a bit frustrating. I did go over by 100 yesterday when I nibbled on carrots at 10 pm but I was starving lol Today's another day, I'm still sick so taking it easy. I'm not expecting any miracles for tomorrow I will try and get my water in though!

08/04: 161 (0.0) same weight for the 4th day, that number is digging it's heals in! Yesterday all I did was sleep anyway so I couldn't have used up much energy. Did stay in my 1200 cal. About the same today as still sick and I need to get into shape for work tomorrow.

Goal: Improve Sleep

8/01 203.7 lbs 6h27m/82/10:23pm Triple checked that weight, still not sure it's accurate. I will check again at the gym later. Good sleep quality, just not enough. Sore muscles, excellent mood. *New ink!*
8/02 205.1 lbs 6h50m/81/10:35pm. This weight seems more likely... my scale may need a new battery. Good training session yesterday, but the rest if the day seemed meh. Feel like I need another few hours of sleep.... GOT to get to bed earlier.
8/03 203.5 lbs 6h41m/78/10:41pm Maybe yesterday was the fluke weight? Water weight? Whatever... a new battery for the scale is on the errands list. Had a quiet day and got some sad news. Took a nap instead of eating.
8/04 203.1 lbs 5h40m/76/11:18pm Hot sweaty day left me wrong out but keyed up. Adoption event conflicted with my normal Saturday BodyFlow class, so I'm going to get to one today.

I am in again and have done 13 rounds with the last 2 being weight gain and taking 3 rounds off. It is starting to get depressing but I am the reason for the gain. My goals for this round is to continue to get back on track and try logging food every day and work on getting back down to my lowest weight of 192 on 6/6/19 and continue with losing because I have a long ways to go.

08/5. 170. Weekends usually are a major struggle. Yesterday we went with friends to get bbq. No good choices there. I tried to budget it in my calories, realizing my calories would still be higher than I like them. I had my regular light breakfast hoping to keep from overeating. The unexpected part of the day came when we had wine with those friends later in the day. I like it, but usually do not have it. I came home and had my regular ice coffee and skipped dinner and my snack. Added a cup of coffee later to keep from being hungry. I’m still losing that initial water weight. (177-170) since Monday.
