ROUND 50 FOR ME.
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
MY STATS:
Highest weight ever (2014/2015): 253
Original starting weight for this current journey : (1-11-2018) 235.0
R91 EW= 189.2
R92 EW= TBD
Current New Goals:
Weight:
Short Term Goal: Lose back down to my lowest weight last round (187.2) which is a 4.6 lb loss. Due to possible fluid retention, I am trying to be confident that I will do it this round. Back to business!
My First Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 186.X by Halloween. (new revised & realistic goal)
My Second Long Term Weight Goal: Weigh 174.X by Jan 11, 2020 (my 2 year anniversary of current Keto dieting).
Final goal: 145-155. We’ll see how I look & feel when I get there.
Exercise:
During each Weight goal I plan on doing cardio in the form of dancing at aerobic levels whenever possible. I would also like to walk as much as possible.
I have changed my spoiler in order to shorten it listing my rounds in groups

10/09 …..189.2….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
10/10 …..191.8…..
10/11 …..191.8….. Yesterday’s stats: 1500 Calories In / 3125 Calories Out. 53 Net Carbs. 24,298 Total Steps & 10.28 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 53 minutes and woke up tired. I did 32 minutes of light to moderate cleaning in the tourist cabins, I walked a DNR hiking trail (no backpack) at about 3.5 mph for 115 minutes (almost 5 miles) and I did aerobic dancing in my livingroom for 26 minutes. Sample song – “Ghostbusters” by Ray Parker Jr.
10/12 …..189.8 ….. Yesterdays stats: 1250 Calories In / 2496 Calories Out. 37 Net Carbs of friendly veggies. 12,790 Total Steps & 5.41 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours & I slept a whopping 6 hours & 18 minutes. The sleep must have aided in the weight loss because my numbers were good and within limits but not as good as they have been recently.
10/13 …..190.2 ….. I went out to dinner with my son who came in to visit from another town. A nice surprise but I didn’t know he was coming or I would have limited breakfast & lunch. I made better choices at the restaurant than usual but still….there is always fluid retention from those hidden things and sodium when I don’t cook it myself. It was nice to see him & the baby. Yesterday’s stats: 1799 Calories In / 2334 Calories Out. 79 Carbs. 14,008 Total Steps & 5.95 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. Not sure about sleep, I recharged my Fitbit. I dreamed last night for the 1st time in probably 20 years. It was a very strange dream but it was wonderful that I got to see my husband again. I woke up very tired & groggy. I wanted to lay back down to see if I could get back into the dream & see him some more, but the cat wouldn’t let me.
10/14 …..190.0 ….. I’m going to have to increase my fiber somehow today. I need TMI to help rid me of my indiscretions! A perfect day yesterday except for the breading on the chicken. Yesterday’s stats: 1696 Calories In / 3084 Calories Out. 40 Net Carbs. 19,422 Total Steps & 8.22 Total Miles. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 19 minutes. I did rigorous tourist cabin cleaning for 90 minutes, light to moderate personal housecleaning for 58 minutes and I did the elliptical for 19 minutes. Total extra calorie burn 739. Expecting 40 degree temps again today but finally no rain. Cold but beautiful.
Have a great week everyone!

@quiltingjaine, Oh. Nothing missing, just something I had to leave behind. I update info for my postings in my food diary, then cut and paste here. This morning, MFP app was acting funky, deleting everything after a backspace. So the second time I just copied and pasted as it was. What you see at the top of my post is how I document my fasting hours.I
@deepwoodslady, I never dream. Probably because I never seem to achieve REM sleep. I do believe dreaming is subconscious thoughts coming forward. Dreaming about your husband and what it means will come to you.5 -

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10-204.2:Yay!!! So excited about this loss! I'm trying not to be so strict with my food because it's driving me crazy. I said screw it yesterday and had some chips. My breakfast and lunch are always good and for dinner I had chicken fajitas with a little avocado and sour cream. Had this all home made and didn't add any bread to it. My water game still isn't where I want it to be, but I'm working on it. I did get in the gym last night
And it's been getting easier to go. Hardest part for me is how tired I feel after work. I won't be home until late tonight, so not sure if I'll go, but I will be getting a lot of walking in.
10/11-204.2: Annoyed, but also happy it's not going up. I had to leave work a little early yesterday to go to the Lotto office (I won $1,000 on a scratcher! ) and from there I decided to stop by the Outlets since it was in the area. I walked A LOT at the mall. And I was also so hungry (not good) and had a sample of bourbon chicken at the food court which sold me on getting a plate. I ate a little and felt full so packed the rest and kept walking. I got an iced water and headed home, but got hungry again and started munching on my leftovers. Was hoping to be down at least a baby bit, come on scale make it an even 204 dammit >:(
I'm just nervous. Driving out to see my friend tomorrow and she has no filter with food anymore and I don't want to go down that rabbit hole again. And it's like if you do eat less and try to be healthy they question you and guilt trip you into "come on lets have pizza and wine and chips and chocolate." Or maybe it's just my friends that are sucky like that. Kind of why I've been losing a lot of friends lately. You start to see their true colors. Anyways, happy Friday!!
10/12-205: Ugh! I did this to myself. I brought Armenian pizza to work for everyone. It's not as heavy as regular pizza, think of like a tortilla with some ground beef and cut up veggies on it and it's thing. I'm mad at myself because I was hungry and caved in and had 3
It was Friday night so I went out with my parents and had half a margarita and some chips and salsa. I didn't have much, but still.
10/13-DNW Was in Irvine spending the night at my friends so didn't get home until the afternoon. Made the mistake of having pancakes and has browns with my sausage and bacon at Dennys. I'm blaming the hormones right now.
10/14-206.4: I thought I had ditched 206, but here I am >:( More pissed at myself. I saw my friend over the weekend and we munched, but I still did pretty good. Last night I went to Souplantation and kinda let loose. Nothing too wild, but I should have had more salads and no pasta or baked potato. Also doesn't help it's been a few days since I last went to the gym.

10: 216.6 Tried cassava flour tortillas last night. So, so yummy. I'm totally over regular flour tortillas, and the whole family is onboard.
11: 214.4!! There's definitely a pattern with ovulation, weight stall/gain, and WHOOSH.
12: 213 I'm getting really excited for my next milestone! Less than 2 pounds to go, and I'll have lost 30 pounds in less than 3 months by dietary changes alone...and without uncomfortable sacrifice or deprivation. The acitivity/exercise will come, likely soon. My intention is to have this be a lifelong practice, so I'm only adding what I feel able to maintain at any given time.
13: 213.8
14: 214.6 Too much salt! It's coming back on as fast as it went, but I'm pretty sure it's just water weight.

There's no such thing as failure; only feedback.10 -
I only include the last 5 rounds, but have been doing these challenges since round 58. Still trying to get into the 130's. It is proving to be a lot tougher than I ever imagined, but I am going to continue trying. Maybe we will do it this next 10 days!
Goal: No weight higher than 144.9 and see 140/141 at least 50% of the time on the scale.
Round 87: 148.2 - 143.6 down 4.6 Avg 143.73
Round 88: 143.6 - 147.0 up 3.4 Avg 145.84
Round 89: 147.0 - 143.7 down3.3 Avg 144.99
Round 90: 143.7 - 140.9 down 2.8 Avg 142.68
Round 91: 140.9 - 143.6 up 2.7 Avg 143.62
10/10 - 142.9 I am slightly annoyed this am. I have been really good, even through my 3 day weekend. I should be lower than this. I guess I will just keep going and hopefully I see a whoosh sometime in the near future. It seems like I can not get past 142/143 for the life of me. My maintenance is within 5 pounds of where I am today, but at the rate I am going I may not be there till next year, lol. Maybe tomorrow I will see a nice drop, I am on track for today and not going to self sabotage. This is just the way it goes sometimes.
10/11 - 141.5 Nice little drop. My lowest last week was 141.5 for 2 days, so maybe I can hold onto it this time. Really going to try and work hard this weekend. My daughter is having her wisdom teeth out this morning and then have to work this afternoon, so it's just going to be one of those days. No fast food! No fast food! That will be my goal today.
10/12 - 142.3 I’m ok with this. Had a couple of drinks last night with dinner, but food was in point. So this should go back down as long as I stay on track today. The weekends are my downfall. I only ate 310 calories all day yesterday because I knew I was going to have a couple of drinks with dinner. So I should have still been within my limits.
10/13 - 143.6 This is the rest of last night I guess. Will try and stay on track this weekend. Making myself be really good the rest of the month to lose these last couple of pounds.
10/14 - 142.8 Not bad for a Monday weigh-in. My best one so far. Halfway through this round and so far I am feeling really good about my progress. We will see what happens the next couple of days.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 158.4 that's down .2 from yesterday, the last day of Round 91, so again, happy camper here. I credit that to my exercise bike, just hiking seems to keep me fine for maintenance now, but seems I need a bit more for weight loss now that I'm so close to goal. GRRR! lol
10/11 159.8 FIE ON YOU CHINESE TAKEOUT FOOD!!! And of course, even overestimating the quantity when I logged, the site had me under by over 500 calories yesterday. FIE ON THE CALORIE ESTIMATOR AS WELL!!!
10/12 159.4 couldn't believe it, I ate 2 of the triple chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream icing that I made for the hubby's birthday yesterday! Imagine what I could have lost without 'em!
10/13 157.6 Water weight from that Chinese food. Hope it stays off!

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.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 -207.2 When I woke up this morning the heaviness in my gut from eating something that I was sensitive to was mainly gone. So I'm not surprised that there was a drop on the scale this morning. My gut is not 100%, but it definitely feels much better. I'm proud of myself that over the last few days when I wasn't feeling great, I still stuck with my diet and exercise even though I didn't want to. Workout with strength coach was tough yesterday. It's supposed to be a great sunny fall day today, so plan is to go for a run after work.
10/11 -207.6 Went to the gym this morning and got my run in yesterday. I had a great salad for lunch today.
10/12 -207.6
10/13 -207.6 Yesterday I took the dog out for a quick trail hike before going to meet the in-laws for lunch. We went out for pizza and I had 1/2 of the pizza for lunch and took the rest home for dinner. We then went out for dessert and I had a great piece of gf olive oil cake. Going to see strength coach today and may see a movie later...no popcorn!
10/14 -207.6 Wow, same weight for 4 days in a row. Went out for a great 5.5 mile trail walk with hubby and the dog today. It was a gorgeous crisp, sunny fall day with the leaves changing colour. My husband is baking apple tartlets today.

10/10 213 lb Tough day did not get to exercise and had very max in calories I could have.
10/11 214.2 Eating and exercise was good. Weight bump is water. My rings are difficult to get off even when my hands are cold, normally they are loose.
10/12 212.7 Yippie! Ate within my calories. No exercise and slacked on water.
10/13 213.5
10/14 214.7 Yesterday I had a function with way to much good food and wine. Time to get focused again! Today I got my dental implants put in and I can chew again (16 months later). Time to start enjoying all of those good veggies.

Starting Weight 130
Starting Round Weight: 120.6lbs.
Goal some where 119
Ultimate goal Weight 114-118
Midwestern 54 year old woman
At the last few pounds, and have been bouncing all over the place. seem to be defying the laws of physics. Goal for October to eat 5 servings (80g) fruits/ vegetables of different colors every day.
Good luck everyone!!
10th Oct: 120.6- Spin Day- Shocked I am starting at a low, went to the last Beer/Wine walk last night and enjoyed the appetizers. Our husbands joined us and we went to fewer restaurants and beer theme not my favorite so may have worked in my weight loss favor.
11th Oct: 119.8 Have been bouncing around for 3 weeks from 122.8 to 120, can not believe I have broken the floor of 120. Heading to Body Pump this morning after enjoying my oatmeal smoothie bowl. Ate more than 7 servings of fruits and veggies and 100 grams of protein yesterday, yeah...
12th Oct:120.2 Not bad- since I hit a low yesterday...tomorrow will be the real test as we are going tailgating this afternoon- no good will happen there I am sure- But lots of fun! Probably take me all week to recover- trying to mentally prepare for tomorrows scale number- Did go to body pump- Had my oatmeal smoothie bowl, and planning on leftover ratatouille for lunch. Do not want be ravished when I get there.
13th Oct:121.8- To be expected..Had a great time at ND/USC tailgate. Tons of people tons of food and even though I was drinking 100 calorie hard cider they still add up. My apple watch actually turned on and asked me if I was working out walking from where we parked to the tailgate. I should check to see if it was a mile. Well, ate with reckless abandon and will spend all week correcting - but this is life enjoy ing each moment and accepting the consequences. Did go to body pump before and did a 3 mile walk in preparation- I made horrible Tiramisu brownies (had to throw away)- I am so out of practice baking, not cooked all the way thru but did sample too much of those too.
14th Oct:121.6 Starting my slow trek downward- I hope to be back to my low last week or 2 ounces lower by end of week. Went to body pump today and walked the dog twice. Fall is coming quick here and the cool weather has begun. I am not sure I will be getting 2 walks in much longer. Also ate all my fruits and veggies in every color... Love Fall veggies.

@flacoyguapo , @everydaywechoose , @tiabirdie56
Everydaywechoose, I am another person (like tiabirdie56) that also can fluctuate wildly due to fluid retention. My best friend, however, never ever retains water, no matter what she eats! My fluids easily get imbalanced at times, even if I've stuck to my macros with the right amount of carbs and/or calories. Sodium gets me! However, without adequate sodium, I get severe toe, foot and calf cramps so SOME sodium is a must for me. It's just something I have to deal with. My lower weights are real loss. My higher weights may be fat gain, may be fluid retention. I have to look back over the last day or two and monitor what I ate to figure it out. So, as tiabirdie said, it may not be the scale. The great thing about these daily challenges and logging your food regularly is getting to know your own body's patterns. Only time and tracking can show you the whole picture. I know its frustrating at times to read what some people have eaten (like pizza) and still lost (or show no change) when I can just dream about the salty ocean and gain 2 or 3 pounds overnight (or more!). I would give your scales a chance and just carefully monitor how much obvious sodium, restaurant or prepared foods you are eating, and how much processed foods (hidden sodium) you've consumed. The answer may lie there.9 -
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.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 116.8 Nice - drop at the start! Of course, seems that happens a lot and then it bounces back up and I struggle to get back to the start lol! Can’t complain as getting closer to initial goal weight! Strength/weights with trainer and cardio today (step class had a new instructor!), and pasta for dinner tonight - smoked eggplant/peppers with cavatappi and smoked mozzarella. Need to go test wines for a work function after dinner so banked calories so that the wine is ok a al IIFIYM.
10/11 118 Not surprised! Weight training + cardio + pasta + wine (tasting + 1.5 glasses and additional food as I was hungry) likely all led to some water retention and my weight loss is not linear at all. I have decided that I really need to increase my calories above 1400 to closer to 1600 so that I am losing at a slower rate (1.34lb current to .5lb) for the last 12 pounds here. I have been shooting for under 1200-1300 as I usually eat lunch out or may not have verified calorie data, but based on realized losses looks like tracking is pretty accurate so can get closer to target. Other reasons: 1) With lifting this last week, I have been hungrier, so listening to my body cues. 2) Not sure if losing slower ultimately preserves more muscle mass (given that my bf is around 28-29%), but more protein with the increased calories may help build more muscle mass and maybe BMR will not drop as much (getting BMR retested in November) plus more carbs can help fuel cardio (still in a deficit though) 3) help with skin adopting to fat loss - most of the fat left is on my lower belly and hips. After a twin pregnancy have lots of stretched out lower belly skin so maybe with a slower loss rate won;t have a baggy tummy (given age may not be avoidable) Building muscle could help fill out some of the space lost to fat. Will monitor and tweak as needed [went over 1600 last night, so hoping that is primarily water or muscle lol]
NSV: Can now wear a pair of small pants that I bought on sale when I was losing weight after the twins were born, but never got weight all the way down to fit! And they are almost too big!
10/12 117.8 Going back down even with the increase in calories!!! Rest day today! Body needs it after workouts this week and have to spend a good part of today driving to the coast and back to move the boat from the boatyard to the marina. Unfortunately won;t have time to stay and sail, so activity level will be low (sorry Apple Watch Challenge team #coreslight, but will be back at full speed tomorrow!) Hopefully some walking and core work later on just to close all my rings!
10/13 118.4 Effects of being in the car for lots of yesterday? New calorie regime? In any case not out of the norm… Did Xtrain this morning and increased power to rate ratio from previous work, so nice to see that as weight is going down. (Watts are increasing as well, which is even better) Strength workout late afternoon - new PR on deadlift of 105 lbs and was able to do 5 reps at 70 lbs on bench-press.
10/14 116.4 Whoosh! New low!!! Now to see if that will hang around until the end of the round :-) Liking the new calorie levels, but need to make sure that I eat more in the morning and have pre-planned snacks for work ! Spin class tonight for cardio.

Goal: 5lb loss.
10th October: 18st 6¾lb (¾lb loss) Feeling great! Finished week 6 of couch to 5k with a 25minute run. 💪 Honestly if you guys knew me you'd never have thought I could do it! I never thought I could. I'm so enjoying it too which is such a surprise!
11th October: 18st 5¾lb (1lb loss) So happy to see that lb loss but suspect it's a fake out - skipped my evening meal last night because my kids were so unsettled. By the time I got the opportunity to eat it was after 9pm and I couldn't be bothered. I think I can expect a wee bump tomorrow.
12th October: 18st 6lb (¼lb gain) There it is! No matter, I can cope with that. Onwards and downwards.
13th October: 18st 6lb (no change) I can't explain this. I was under on calories and jogged for half an hour yesterday. Disappointing.
14th October: 18st 6lb (no change) Umm..!! I will be going jogging tonight. Hoping that will give me a boost to get past this little ledge I'm stuck on. Fingers crossed.
15th October: 18st 6¾lb (¾lb gain) I can't even pretend to understand. 25min jog yesterday, under on calories, good choices. I'm feeling very frustrated. Literally back where I started on day one of this round.

3 - Water 1.5l
4 – Core workout 30 day challenge
Date – Weight in of the morning– Summary of the previous day:
10/10 -156.8, core 09/30 ok, 10,644 steps, 1220 cal I'm looking forward to the winter months, more soups and less ice cream lol I'm going to try and fit in a run today. It's one of those days where I have to duplicate myself to be at several places at once so I've packed a lunch and planned my meals.. now I just have to stick to the plan, that's the hardest part !
10/11 - 157.6 (+0.8) 7943 steps, calories .. to many
Yesterday I didn't manage to stick to the plan in the end, but that's just my bad. My kid was sick, there's a tummy bug going around school, so I left work early and we did home schooling instead. Then I had a landlord meeting in the evening so I didn't manage to get my run done. Today I'm going to the gym but this weekend is going to be another gain I think. There's too much going on to be organised. I'll just try and limit the damage by avoiding deserts and sweet stuff. Also I've managed to plan physical activities as well, Saturday morning 2h badminton with my daughter and Sunday gym or a quick run (if I'm not too tired). After this weekend I'm planning on taking a slower pace and blocking some "me time" over the weekends.
10/12 157.6 (0.0) 14.735 steps, core 11/30 done, W7R3 done. I ran 28 minutes straight yesterday!! 1st times since my diagnostic, 10 years ago, that I've managed to do that! So chuffed! I also did a 20 minute workout on the machines at the gym before hand. Unfortunately I treated myself to my 1st packet of crisps since starting this rounds so the weight didn't go down lol Today I have 2 hrs badminton with my daughter this morning, it's a fun activity and not competitive at all, but it keeps us moving for two hours, then I'm driving straight to a conference so I need to get some food somewhere otherwise I"ll end up pigging out on all the cakes and goodies. Back home late, that'll be another challenge not to eat the first thing in the fridge...
10/13 156.8 (-0.8) 9.545 steps 1309 cal, core 11/30, badminton 2hrs, then had food in the car to eat between various activities so I managed to stay on track.
10/14 155.8 (-1.0lbs) 5.642 step 1412 cal, core 12/30 Very surprised at this loss especially after a weekend
I'll probably put some back on tomorrow but in the meantime I'm going to enjoy it I'm getting close to my healthy BMI. I'd really like to get into the lower BMI numbers for my joints and because there's a lot of heart disease in my family. I'm going to try and cut salt as well, that's going to be hard!
10/15 157 (+1.2); 16,234 steps, 1303 cal, Core challenge rest day, 3km treadmill + 15mins elliptical. No idea where that gain came from, I did expect a little increase but having such an active day I though it would be ok. On the other hand my clothes are getting baggy and my general body shape is much improved so I'm not too worried. Anyway today I'm going to watch my calories and salt. I've planned an hour walk with a friend during my lunch hour.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/10 - 68,7 - DOMS today. Feeling fresh and happy. I am going to bump up my cals by 100 because that would reflect what I want to achieve in the long run a bit better. I am planning on having a chill day today and just walking for 1 hour.
10/11 - 68,8 - Still retaining water I think. This is what I find most difficult to mindfully deal with. But you get used to it as time goes on and as your mindset shifts... And a big part of looking at it 10 days’ at a time, and seeing the difference round after round IS what made me join in the first place. Great, I’m back on a mindful track :-)
10/12 - 68,5 - had a last minute dinner invite yesterday, ate pretty well throughout the day and worked out. Everything’s fine with me :-) on track and happy :-)
10/13 - 68,3 - It’s the weekend and I am out and about. Walked 3 hours yesterday. This loss was to be expected :-) Still trying to find a calorie target to match a loss of 250gr, but the unpredicted walks make it hard to do so. I think after 30 days of data I will have a bigger picture perspective and see what correlates and what doesn’t.
10/14 - 68,0 - whoop whoop. I didn’t walk nor had any workout yesterday, ate well, still hiking up the calories slowly and trying to find balance with general activity. Worked out and walked today.
10/15 - 68,1 - good insight into the small up and downs. Ate a lot more than usual yesterday to make up for the day’s activity. And I was still hungry after my meals. I think I am low on veggies and my macros were not as balanced. So today grocery shop and bulking up my meals with more veggies and fats mmmhhhh....(Carbs and protein are on point - i.e. high :-))11 -

My plan for R92 is to remain focused, log and track properly and see a loss of 1-2lb....
Our kitchen is coming out this weekend as our new open plan space (lounge, kitchen and dining room) needs to be completely emptied out in preparation for the floor being laid and the new kitchen being delivered so next week will be a challenge food wise but I have a plan ...... Just need to stick to it!
Start Weight 137.9lb
10/10 - 138.9lb (+1.0lb) Was about 100 calories over yesterday but it was salty popcorn so this is basically just water retention and nothing more. Hubby away for a few days and my youngest wanted to sit and watch something on TV together and decided to bring in a bowl of popcorn to snuggle up with - how can anyone resist that offer! Enjoyed the popcorn obviously but no where near as much as the hour spent snuggled on the sofa with my daughter
Some days life is sssooo good

10/13 - 138.2lb (-0.7lb)
10/14 - 137.8lb (-0.4lb) Very happy with this after a weekend. Although not a normal weekend. Went to the gym Saturday morning while the girls were at cheerleading practice, then spent the rest of the weekend emptying out the kitchen cupboards and getting rid of all the units ready for the floor this week. Meant I was pretty active all weekend and no big family roast last night. Kitchen-less now - new one gets delivered next Tuesday but still then has to be fitted but I should have my oven back up and running by the weekend
So slow cooker chilli prepped for tonight with microwave rice ......... Going to be tough to stay on plan this week but my weigh in this morning keeps my motivation up!
Have a great week
10/15 - 137.3lb (-0.5lb) Happy with this mornings drop. Food planned and prepped for today around the floor laying and gym session tonight so should be another good day

@Tracie_Lord Wow - you've got back on it straight from your holiday. So easy to carry on that "holiday mode" when you get back - but you've obviously come back so focused! Amazing!
Hope you had a good time 5
