Day/Weight/Comment
08/31-208.9 Plan today is for hubby and I to organize the bedroom closet and storage room. Husband started back up on MFP this week. He lost 50lbs easily a couple of years ago just by stopping to eat junk food, but he wasn't ready to make any other changes to lose the next 40-50lbs and he has maintained his weight for the last 3 years. This week he started to track his food and he was shocked on how many calories he was eating.
09/01-208.9 Did not drink a lot of water yesterday and had more snacks then usual. Organized and clean storage room yesterday and working on bedroom today. Ankle still sore, so went out for a walk instead. Strength coach today and then going out to lunch.
09/02-209.8 Had a great lunch at a local mexican restuarant. I didn't drink much water yesterday, so plan for today is to get my water in.
09/03-210.5 Probably still seeing the effects of lunch from 2 days ago. Weight is till trending downwards. Success yesterday is getting my water in. Strength coach today.
09/04-209.8 There goes some of the water weight. Need to still get some more water in this evening.
09/05-210.5 Hardly drank any water yesterday. Working on water intake today.
09/06-210.5 Feeling heavy. My intestinal system still hasn't fully recovered from my vacation from over a month ago. Weightlifting at the gym tonight.
09/07--209.8 NSV! I was tired yesterday after work and even though I had planned to, I decided not to go to the gym. So when I got home I had dinner and even took a nap. When I woke up from my nap I said to myself that instead of just sitting on the couch and watching tv I should go to the gym. So I ended going to the gym at 8pm, completed my workout, and left just before the gym closed at 9pm. I felt so good when I got home! Going to a wedding today that is a 1 1/2 hour drive away. Plan is to make sure I'm not hungry before I leave for the wedding, bring some snacks, and drink a lot of water.

Goal: Improve Sleep - duration of 7hrs and score above 80.

8/31 197.9 lbs 4h51m/69/11:10pm - woke up around 4:30, but did fall back to sleep for another hour or so; looking forward to a good workout today.
9/1 197.4 lbs 6h5m/76/11:41pm - ended up doing absolutely nothing for the first time in forever and it felt glorious! Quiet day with the dogs. Even let my Fitbit recharge...
9/2 196.8 lbs 7h7m/84/10:04pm - very active, good sleep. Coincidence? I think not. Though I did over-hydrate and as a consequence, was up a few times, I did fall back to sleep pretty well.
9/3 197.1 lbs 7h18m/88/10:19pm - good workout and otherwise restful; did some stretching and used my foam roller & acupressure mat to help with lingering soreness. Good sleep... want more - lol
9/4 196.2 lbs 5h51m/77/11:46pm - Sunday's activity seems to have paid off. Combat tonight.
9/5 194.7 lbs 6h4m/78/10:42pm - dogs woke me up, so not really an accurate indicator of how long I would have slept... lol Also not sure if I trust the weigh-in, but I got that twice so I'm recording it. Woke up hungry!
9/6 193.6 lbs??? 6h43m/82/10:41pm - Not real sure about that weight, but I got it 4x... still - super happy to finally be seeing some progress. Good workout, rough day at work, decent sleep, of not quite enough. TGIF!
9/7 193.7 lbs 6h11m/70/10:42pm - up for a couple hours in the middle of the night... bah! Had a big cal/carb day - pizza & beer with good friends. As a result, I will adjust Saturday's refeed down. Not gonna sweat this. 💕

1: 225.6 I didn't log yesterday because we had a family day-trip, but I tried intuitive eating. I guess it worked out pretty well.
2: 226.2 Too many carbs at dinner.
3: 225.4 I'm a bit surprised by this. I had an extra hour in my eating window, increased hunger from TOM, and went significantly over my calorie allowance. But hey, I'll take it!

Round 88 GW: 198
GW: 140

08/31: 203.4(This is my first round. As long as I’ve had MFP on my phone, this is my first week speaking in forums. I’ve been tracking this time for almost a week. Squats and walking 3 miles each day for 10 days. I’ll find my rhythm soon.

09/01: 201.8 I’m not sure what I did to lose. I went over calories by 85 calories and I didn’t walk my 3 miles yesterday. I did get on the elliptical for 20 minutes but nothing intense. I believe I’ve been building muscle walking on incline and doing squats. Muscle does weigh more than fat so maybe after 11 days of walking/squats my body is finally showing me some results. I did start walking around the same time I started logging calories so I wasn’t seeing any movement or it would go down 2lbs for a day and then go back up 2 days later. I did watch my carbs yesterday and I drank 96 oz water.

09/02: 201

09/03: 203 I missed two days at the gym back-to-back. I couldn’t use my app for a couple of hours yesterday and by the time my phone was working again my calories took a hit. I finished my carb heavy/ calorie heavy brunch and didn’t realize the damage while I was enjoying my meal. No worries as I’m back on track with the walking and calorie tracking.

9/04: 203.6 I was able to get back on track and walk 3 miles yesterday. I stayed within calories but I did allow myself a small cheat as a snack. I’m not sure if the increase but I’m not too concerned. If I stick with trackinf it will pay off on the scale. Happy Tracking😊

09/05: 203.6 I didn’t drop but I didn’t gain. I tracked everything and walked my 3 miles. I may try to switch up my workout. I didn’t eat as much protein as I wanted yesterday but I tracked. I’m going to review and repeat meals for day 1 and 2 and see if that is the right mix for me. Good Luck everyone.

09/06: 203.4

09/07: 204.3 I had a cheat day yesterday. I’m on pain meds so that’s throwing my body off. I’m still going to track. I didn’t plan right for this challenge. I’ll stick with it until I reach the goal for this challenge. Better late than never.

Round 88 – August 31 to September 9
Female, 5’, 66 years. Fall always seems more like the beginning of a new year for me than Jan.1. Summer is pretty much finished and time to plan what I’ll be involved in for the winter. So I looked back over the last year to see how my weight ups and downs had gone. It’s pretty obvious: stress = weight gain, increased activity = weight loss, for me. I’m not ready to go back to the gym till October but goal this round will be to add exercises at home + more yard work (want to be finished with that so much that I can almost taste it – but just have to keep plugging). Other goals – finish log each day, only yogurt or fruit in the evening and nothing after 9 p.m. SW – 162.4, GW – 161.4, UGW – 140. (This really should be 125 or 130 but that seems like such a long ways to go and 140 would be a huge improvement.)
Day/Weight/Comment
08/31 – 162.6
09/01 – 162.6
09/02 – 162.8 – Relax day yesterday and did not manage to track or exercise but ate fairly reasonably. Today is already better – made myself do some exercises before breakfast, seems that is the only way to get them in, and decided to make that my habit goal. It seems the only way to keep my waistline from “relaxing outward” is exercise that area. Otherwise my posture goes and waist is bigger even if my weight is the same and I’m getting other exercise like walking.
09/03 – 162.6 Pretty good day for calories but sadly did not log all. No LNS though, even though I was tempted. Ten min. stretching exercises but not abs. Three hours yard work.
09/04 – 162.8 Logged all, only a peach with fat free yogurt in the evening, warmup exercises but didn’t get any further. About 4.5 hrs. digging out old flower beds. The one spot is such slow going – grass, thyme, moss, lilac suckers, etc. Suddenly had an idea last night after supper – work in a different bed – it went so much faster and could keep working as it got dark because it is under one of the house lights!
09/05 – 163 – Did do my morning exercises but then had to do a ‘quick’ writing project before working outside. Ended up spending the day on it with a little left for today so no further exercise. Did not log all cals. but most and kept them reasonable.
09/06 – 163.8 – Thought I might have a drop as got a lot of exercise yesterday. Did eat back some of the cals. though. Logged all cals., warmup exercises, 4+ hours digging out flowerbeds. Rainy today and my arm is sore so taking it easy and tidying house.
09/07 – 162.8 – Warm up exercises, no LNS, kept track of eating but MFP would just show the basic screen for logging stuff and would not record so gave up on that. Raining so no outside exercise.

Sleep 7+ hours every day
Commit to Barre 3x a week

Day/Weight/Comment

08/31 137.7, On vacation through Monday so will accept a gain and hope to be back down by the end of the round
09/01 138.3, back home later tonight so food will be back to normal tomorrow.
09/02 138, working my way back down to hopefully match my previous low of 137.6 by mid week.
09/03 137.6, tennis lessons start today with local parks and rec. I’m taking a beginning class again and hope to be intermediate by the second part of the fall class registration time.
09/04 137.6, loved my tennis lesson yesterday. Today, I’m going to do an hour on the elliptical
09/05 137.4, snacked a lot yesterday and didn’t eat a real meal. This happens a lot during my TOM where I eat a lot of chocolate and popcorn, which are more tempting to me than during other times of the months. I have to not have certain items in the house next month since there are more filling ways to get calories. On track to see a 136 number this month, but it is a weigh in right after a weekend so it’s not a given unless I keep working hard.
09/06 137.1, attending a gala tonight so will try to keep calories in check as best as I can, but this is a rare occurrence so will enjoy myself too.
09/07 135.8, very surprised to see this number with the amount I ate and drank last night. I expect to see an increase in the next couple of days.

My highest weight was 197# at 5’4”. I’m 48 years old.
I was 189# when I first started keto (1/1/18), and had gotten down to 150# before I let life interrupt me.

Round 83 (my round 1) SW - 165.5, AW - 163.25
Round 84 (my round 2) SW - 160, AW - 161.2
Round 85 (my round 3) SW - 159.5, AW - 158.75
Round 86 (my round 4) SW - 158.5, AW - 157.64
Round 87 (my round 5) SW - 157.5, AW - 157.25

Round 88 (my round 6)
8/31 - 157 - last weekend before work starts again! Forgot my meter, so no numbers. I’m going to have to stay focused! We’re going to be busy cleaning out the garage at my SO’s so we can move my stuff in & organize for a garage sale.
9/1 - 156 - more cleaning, purging & organizing today! Combining 2 households is hard work! 😂
9/2 - 157 - homemade fish fry last night 😬 I had 1 onion ring & 2 hush puppies. They weren’t what I hoped for. But my keto coating was much better than his corn meal coating! Staying the course. Work starts in 2 days! Back home today to work on my place.
9/3 - 157 - holding steady. Today was an off day. Too many carbs. Back to work bright & early tomorrow and no choice but to walk the thin line.
9/4 - 156 - up & out the door before 0600. Hopefully I’ll be home before 2000. Have my first jug of water & plenty of food.
9/5 - 157.5
9/6 - 158
9/7 - 156.5 - the last 2 days at work were awful. The bright side is that I was able to do OMAD. The down side was no “movement” for several days and so much stress that I didn’t sleep well. Got to crash last night & sleep in today then out of bed to get things moving. Have to stay strong & focused this weekend so I can finish this 10 days strong. I’m starting to wonder how the stress hormones are related to cravings. Any insight?

09/06 …..193.0 LOSS ….. A great day yesterday! Whoosh. I changed my walk into a rugged terrain hike near the river & I added a short dance session last night to shake things up! Yesterday’s stats: 1200 calories in / 2674 calories burned. 61 Net Carbs mainly from my riverside picnic. 17,636 Total Steps & 7.35 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 6 minutes last night & I woke up tired. I did light cabin cleaning and house cleaning for 123 minutes. I hiked for 91 minutes and I danced for 18 minutes last night. Sample song “To Love Somebody” by the Bee Gees. Song was not too fast, but really gets the groove on. ( I know you’ll like this one quiltingjaine) I hope everyone who is able will take 3 minutes & dance along. With winter coming in this cold, cold blustery state of Michigan, I know I’ve got to get back in the groove of indoor exercise. Join me!

09/07 …..193.4 UNFAIR GAIN….. I had a very severe sugar drop (T2D) last night and had to quickly eat carbs that I would not have eaten otherwise. I quickly ate EXACTLY what my doctor recommended, 1 slice of bread with peanut butter & about 8 oz milk (2%). It definitely felt like I was saving my life when I was poking it in and drinking the milk too. So I am up a bit which feels pretty unfair. Otherwise I had a great day – on point with diet and exercise that I’d planned. Yesterday’s stats before the small & quick carb snack: 1118 Calories In / 2460 Calories burned. 32 Net carbs mainly spaghetti squash casserole. 11,850 Total Steps & 5.01 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 12 minutes. I walked at moderate pace for 36 minutes, I did misc yard work, painting & general outdoor chores for 67 minutes. I danced last night for 17 minutes, Sample Song “Jealous” by Nick Jonas. Total extra calories burned 616.

Day/Weight/Comment

8/31: 197.8 (+/- 0) I didn’t think yesterday was horrible but I guess it wasn’t great. Weighed in today after my light breakfast. But not gaining is ok by me. Guess I’ll make this a 9 day challenge.

9/1: 199.0 (+1.2) well this challenge isn’t working so much so far. I did good all day yesterday. Even went to a wedding and didn’t eat. Ate McDonalds late but only half the food. Still early. Still hopeful

9/2: 198.2 (-.8) not to bad. Had a good workout yesterday. But ate a lot of junk food in small quantity. Mostly because I had a late lunch/ early dinner and was getting hungry. As long as it’s going down. Hopefully I can get back to my starting weight

9/3: 197.6 (-.6) yesterday wasn’t great but wasn’t horrible. Today is my daughters birthday and she’s requesting carb overload for birthday dinner. I’ll try to control myself. But sometimes there has to be risk to get a reward.

9/4: 198.0 (+.4) not to bad for celebrating my youngest daughters birthday with carb overload. I did my best to have portion control. But I also hadn’t eaten most of the day knowing most my calories would be going to dinner. Plus also haven’t slept much the past few days. Going to hit the gym and hope I can work it off.

9/5: 198.4 (+.4) guess working out and eating good only lasts for so long. Seems whenever I get to a low and maintain what I’ve been doing my body decides to gain. I’ve had this problem for a long time. It’s starting to look like I’ll never get where I wish to be. And it’s not just muscle gaining from weight training. Just like my life in general. When I start to see some good light darkness quickly takes over.

9/6: 198.0 (-.4) weighed in kind of late today. Didn’t have much motivation or drive to do it this morning. But I did. No matter the results I will stick through it. And with the help of a few people I will stay positive and keep pushing towards my goal no matter how long it takes. The best results are in the mirror not the scale. And I just have to remind myself of that daily. One day at a time with my accountability partners I’ll get there. Thanks! (They know who they are)

9/7: 197.8 (-.2) had an earlier weigh in than normal today. But a busy day/weekend ahead of me. Hoping I can stay on track or as close as possible.

9/4 180 (-.5) Boot camp and 30 minutes of cardio. Eating clean seems to be working
9/5 181 +1 This challenge and logging my food seem to be working with the weight loss. Hard time finishing my water today. Boot camp and cardio but sat a lot at work.
9/6 180.5 (-.5) felt very sluggish today
9/7 180.5 +/- 0 Did very well up until dinner, Red Robin with the family. I’m glad that the scale didn’t notice my cheat meal.

R87 SW:126.6 GW:125 EW 125.4 (-1)

08/31 - 123.4 :: was very active and unintentionally ate far lower than my calorie limit because of being busy through out the day. Made healthy choices. Last round was slow progress. This is a kicker to start with.
09/01 - 124.4 :: last drop was surprising, seems numbers evened out. Over calorie limit by < 100 cals. Not very active. Ate healthy.
09/02 - 124.4 :: ate a bit higher than calorie limit, <50 cals. Decently active. Ate healthy. Breakfast choice of Sago was very calorific, be cautious next time.
09/03 - 123.6 :: Ate in calorie limit, ate planned snack and controlled portions. Not very active.
09/04 - 124.4 :: Ate in calorie limit, ate planned snack and controlled portions. Decently active.
09/05 - 125.4 :: Ate under calorie limits, controlled portions. Active. TOM started, hence a little upswing.
09/06 - 125.4 :: Ate in calorie limits, was able to fit cravings in allowed limits. Decently active.

09/07 - 124.4 :: Ate under calorie limits, activity low. Ordered in dinner, too much sodium. Need to track sodium better.

08/31: 309.8 lbs (+0.1) … /shrug

09/01: 306.2 lbs (-3.6) … sweet, sweet uptick recovery. New low… with this weight I’ve now lost 80 lbs! Completed Couch to 5k Week 3 Day 2 this morning.

09/02: 305.9 lbs (-0.3) … it’s been a good 3 day weekend!

09/03: 305.8 lbs (-0.1) … I’m glad to see that these weigh ins aren’t a fluke! Completed Couch to 5k Week 3 Day 3 this morning.

09/04: 308.1 lbs (+2.3) … upticks happen, but I’m glad that I’m still under my round starting weight by a decent amount.

09/05: 307.5 lbs (-0.6) … bit better today. It would have been lower if I hadn’t ate closer to maintenance yesterday. Had a huge appetite for some reason.

09/06: 306.2 lbs (-1.3) … more uptick recovery. I’ve been eating more than usual for the past two days due to an increased appetite. Wednesday was still below budget when accounting for exercise calories and yesterday was a bit over budget. Glad to see that it’s not negatively affecting my morning weigh ins. Completed Couch to 5k Week 4 Day 1 this morning. Jogging intervals were pushed to alternating 3 minutes / 5 minutes, and I certainly felt those longer intervals in my legs.

09/07: 306.8 lbs (+0.6) … ate a bigger dinner last night, that’s likely all this is. Hopefully it’ll drop tomorrow a bit.

Day/Weight/Comment

8/31: 224.0 (-1.6)/18.9 (-0.2). A reward from heaven because I finally went to the gym? I went out to dinner with my wife, and split a sandwich with her. It was relatively healthy, but my willingness to portion control was what made my night a success.

9/1: 225.6 (+1.6)/19.1 (+0.2). I did my best last night with what I could regarding food (quality/quantity), at least as much as I could while out at a restaurant I love. It's likely my previous weigh-in was a slight exaggeration (weighed late) and that it was affected by me working out the night before. I'm going to the gym this morning, and I'm going to try my best to keep things under control today (wife's birthday party). If I have alcohol, it will be in the form of a mixed drink or two (spirit + diet soda). Going to the gym this morning (right now) to try to give myself a little wiggle room tonight. Oh, and to get myself into good habits! :-)

9/2: 225.6 (0.0)/19.1 (0.0). I went to bed late last night and got up late this morning, so this number is potentially a little bit under what it should be. I did pretty well yesterday at my wife's birthday party; I planned out what I was going to eat before I ate it (for the most part). I had one beer, but other than that it was all spirits + diet soda. I couldn't resist a tiny slice of the best carrot cake I have ever had (homemade by my sister-in-law). I also hit the gym before going to the party, which made it twice in three days that I made it there. I think I can sustain three times per week: Friday (with my wife), Sunday, and Tuesday, with basketball starting up this coming Saturday. I'll shoot for three times times at the gym, but I'll feel successful even if I can make it twice per week. Coming out of the weekend (particularly given two celebrations for wife's B-Day) still at my starting weight for the round feels like a pretty significant accomplishment.

9/3: 226.0 (+0.4)/19.1 (0.0). This is probably the right number, and not bad for the weekend I just had. I'm feeling okay right now, but this is going to be a stressful week. Trying to stay focused...

9/4: 226.2 (+0.2)/19.2 (+0.1). Last night (and much of my waking hours) was spent worrying about what was going to happen today (I'll talk about that tomorrow). I am pretty sure that I ate within calories (and according to plan), and I know that my weigh-in does not always reflect my previous day's efforts. Eat that, scale!

9/5: 224.0 (-2.2)/18.9 (-0.3). WHOOSH!!!. There's no good reason for this, and who cares!?!?!? I was above my calorie goal yesterday, but below maintenance. I have a lot of workplace stress right now; a coworker is basically trying to get me fired because she did not like that I reported her inappropriate behavior, and I'm being investigated as a result (my stressful day yesterday was meeting with the investigator). I'm going to the gym either tonight or tomorrow night, and basketball is FINALLY BACK! Saturday will be my first time in over two months (problem with gym permit).

9/6: 223.2 (-0.8)/18.8 (-0.1). This is the lowest weight I've been in months. I'm going to try not to get too excited about a number (just as I don't get too upset about a number), but I can't help but feel good about this. On a side note, I HATE the way my body looks as I lose weight. I tend to see losses first in areas I DON'T want to lose (thinning out of legs, shoulders, arms), and I don't see ANY CHANGES around the belly area. Weight training only exaggerates this, unfortunately (I love to lift, both upper and lower body). To make things even more fun, my wife loves to point out changes in my legs in particular (though she has not done this yet during THIS cycle, to her credit). The good news is that I generally know how this process goes. At about 215 my face thins out a bit, and when I get below 210 I start to notice a change in the midsection. I just need to stick with the process and utilize my delayed gratification skills and patience. And continue to stay accountable, of course! This group feels like the only thing that really works for me, in addition to a supportive friend or two (who also happen to be in this group!).

9/7: 223.4 (+0.2)/18.9 (+0.1). I went out for sushi last night and did pretty well. Mostly stuck to sashimi (no rice), clams, and mussels. I got peer-pressured into a three small shots of sake, but overall I'm pretty pleased with the way I handled myself. I did my best to track, but I am pretty sure I overestimated my calories by quite a bit. Basketball happened today, but I'll talk about that tomorrow morning
