My body is my ally
R100 EW: 73.1kg
01/08 73.4kg - YWA day 6, no run, 16hrs fast
01/09 73.0kg - no yoga and no run, 15hrs fast, TOM is imminent
Sometimes the body just takes what it needs, this morning that was a little extra sleept. Date night, including dinner, drinks and comedy.
01/10 73.2kg - YWA day 7, no run, 13hrs fast
Forgot to post during the day yesterday and then couldn't access last night.
And today, we had this office thing where everyone got a piece of cake, which I couldn't get out of without causing discussions.
01/11 73.2kg - 15hrs fast, short speed run, YWA day8
Still waiting for TOM. Woke up super hungry, so didn't quite make it to 16hrs after a night out yesterday,
01/12 72.6kg - 5mile run, YWA day 9, 17hr fast
Great end to the week. My average fasting time is 15.6hrs, so I'll work towards increasing that by end of the round.
Weekly steps: 72k - didn't do 10k each day, but caught up on Sunday
01/13 72.7kg - rest day, 17hrs fast
01/14 73kg, weighed after exercise, 5k run in the wind&rain, YWA day 10, 17hrs fast
Couldn't get online in the eve, when I wanted to post yesterday's result.
TOM finally made an appearance, which explains my sweets craving yesterday just before my eating window closed. I want to become better at not giving in to those.
01/15 73.1kg, YWA day 11, 17hrs fast, short tempo run
Ugh this is annoying. I had a very short eating window yesterday and then this. Well, I also had a beer after I had closed my eating window. Maybe my body is telling me to stop kidding myself.
01/16 73kg, YWA day 12, no run, 14hrs fast
I gave in to emotional eating at work... And I didn't stop. Ah well new day tomorrow. Come to think of it, sugary snacks just before I stopped eating have probably contributed to my early cravings this morning along with work stress. But I ended the day well with a walk to get my steps in.

08/01- DKW. Missed weighing start. Did a training class and almost 10k steps. Logged food.
09/01- 100.4 kg First day of tracking. Kept it clean (ish) but feeling unconcentrated and tired. I know it is the first 3 days but it is hard.
10/01-99.6 kg. Double digits already. I know it is water weight from eating proper so not expecting the same. Keeping the goal of double digits.
11/01-99.3 kg. Was really hard today. Spent most day cleaning which I don't consider as sports but apparently busted my appetite.
12/01- 99.2 kg .
13/01-98.9kg.
14/01-98.4kg. Didn't eat enough yesterday and this will bite me today since will probably be hungry and tired. And will.most probably see the scale going up tomorrow...
15/01-98.7kg. Yep, as expected. Nice to be aware of this so no big disappointments. Though I know it is too hard to see the scale going up so hopefully will remain in this viscinity tomorrow.
16/01--98.8kg. If it remains under 99 I will be super happy.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 81,7 kg Yesterday I wasn't really into food, ate anyway to keep metabolism up and running. I think I have never been glad in my life before when I had not to eat anymore;)
01/09 81,9 kg went for a walk, calories were good and managed to fast 24hrs in between meals:) TOM soon to be there, I can feel that I have water retentions which will pass in a few days anyway. Today is a regular eating day. It's morning and I have a feeling that I won't be having any problems this time to eat more:-)
01/10 81,9 kg* Food and calories were all good yesterday. Had a trigger directly after the second meal. When it feels like nothing is going to satisfy you..., probably because of hormones. ACV and green tea helped a bit. Only planned on a short walk, maybe 10 minutes and ended up doing 60 minutes:). Don't know if I wish TOM would be there already, then I get rid of the water retentions (well, that's the only pro...). Plan for today: Fast-day, maybe I make it to 24hrs. 5 more hrs to go:)
01/11 80.7 kg Nice! That's about the weight I had before Christmas. Tried MCT oil, only to learn that mine was made from Palm sth and is not good. So back to coconut oil. Why is that, that I mostly end up throwing away the fancy stuff and in the end stick to my natural foods:-)) I never learn. Should stop watching videos of men with big arm muscles and all the fancy products they are promoting...And it didn't make me more awake when I was tired. Taking an iodine pill did the trick much better. tststs...Calories were good, I fasted for 22 hrs. Exercised only a little, was tired. Which was to be expected - hormones (or rather lack of it shortly before TOM).
01/12 80,2 kg Went for a short walk, it was eating-day, was in calories. Two bigger meals were enough. So my next meal will probably tomorrow around 1pm. Noticed that my favourite ring fits comfortly, even after walking when fingers are thicker. Half a month ago it wouldn't fit at all.
01/13 80,2 kg* Went for a longer walk and hit last weeks's exercise goal:) fasted for 24 hrs. I like the way that I feel in a fasted state. Everything feels a bit calmer and slower - but in a good way. Today TOM is hitting strong.
01/14 80,1 kg Stuck to the plan. I start getting used to the IF and I really like it. Fasting seems to be getting easier by the day. My body responds well to the keto/IF regime. I am waiting for less weight loss though, don't think it will continue forever like this;)
01/15 79,3 kg Okay, now I am under my usual set-point. In the past it was always hard to lose weight once I was in the 70s, but - I am doing great so far. Haha, I don't trust it, yet...Yesterday I didn't give in to one of my usual cravings after work in the night. Good.
01/16 79,3 kg* Another stressful job until into the night and the urge to eat. But I stayed strong and meditated instead which released some of the stress. And I had a keto cacao. Maybe I will take a hot shower too to relax more and not turn to food.

69 years old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
We used to walk 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year. Then I had back surgery. Now I'm waiting to get my hip fixed. Hip Doc said surgery in April. Ugh! I can't do any walking or biking...both kill me. I see my personal trainer three times a week. She is taking it very slow and easy with me.
I got March 10th as my hip surgery date!! Now, if I can just not eat everything in the house waiting for it!

@quiltingjaine Thanks for the article. I have read it before. It is one of the downfalls, IMHO, of a keto or low-carb lifestyle. It mentions even ONE day of over carb can be dangerous. Clearly there will be those days or social engagements. We have all had them. This would not occur with a standard low calorie or low-fat diet. However, I've found that the low carb is what stabilizes my blood glucose the most so I practice low carb for that reason. On my best days I try to watch both cals & carbs. The article definitely makes me feel between a rock and a hard place when determining what method of weight loss would be best for me. Ah....the pros and cons of it all! Honestly, its something that should be weighed out. I will say this. I don't actually plan "cheat days" which is what the article is actually about. I do go over carbs primarily during travel which is usually a couple of times a month. My home is a safety zone for the low-carb lifestyle. What to do...What to do.... It is something I should think about, I thank you for sharing.3

01/08 - 189.4! Wow, down already into the 180s My goal for this challenge is to be in the 180s by the end of it, so hopefully I can maintain this loss. Still feeling sick as a dog, I dont know when I'm going to kick this cold, it's been going on forever. But hopefully if I keep eating healthy and getting lots of sleep, it will go away soon.
01/09 - 189.2! So glad to stay stable! Still really sick, didn't get any work done today, mostly lay in bed sleeping all day. Hoping to be healthier soon but happy to at least still be making progress.
01/10 - 191... up quite a bit and very bummed. Hopefully it's mostly bloat from being sick, but motivating to be stricter about my diet. Feeling a little better today, so I am going to try to get some good work done today but not going to try exercising again until I'm all better.
01/11 - 191.4... womp womp, not what I wanted to see but maybe my body is just recalibrating after last challenge's huge loss.
01/12 - 191! Down a little bit, which is nice. Had a lot of trouble sticking to my diet. It's hard to keep motivation when the scale isnt cooperating, but I'm still so far from where I started that I shouldn't be throwing in the towel so easily. Did better with my diet today
01/13 - 190.4! Yay, at least back to where I started this challenge If I can maintain this or even lose a little by the end of the challenge, I will be happy. First day back at work after being sick, trying to get lots done. Don't want to push myself too hard, because I'm not all the way recovered yet, but doing some light exercise today to get myself back in the fitness game.
01/14 - 190.2! Well, down is down. Did much better on my diet today, now I just gotta get my writing productivity to match it... having such a hard time focusing my thoughts and energies
01/15 - 189.4! Yay, progress! Very happy with myself for that and that I got a lot of work done today. My depression has really been getting out of control lately and making it harder for me to get any work done. I finally faced the facts and saw a psychiatrist and got a Prozac prescription. I don't think it's having any effect yet but just knowing that there may be hope that things will get better made it easier for me today to stick to my diet and get work done.
01/16 - 189.6! Up a little and feeling super bloated today, trying not to get bummed out about it bc I lost so much last round that it makes sense to slow down this round. Got a lot of work done, made a big breakthrough on a project today, and stuck to my food goals.

@MSWDiet - I caved easily without good reason because I've conveniently "forgotten" that I am on a diet for life. This is not a lifestyle choice it is a necessity. I'm determined to regaining my vigilance for doing what works. A major attitude adjustment is in progress. This is me to a t!!!!
@fmfdfa2020 - thats my problem too, I eat one chocolate, biscuit, cake and the flood gates open and I go into a full blown binge not being able to get enough even when my stomach feels full, got to get back to strongly saying "NO" from the outset.
I'm right there with you. Gotta just say no, because right now, one isn't cutting it. Cakes and breads get me every time!7 -

Round 101 (23 for me)
Ready to jump in to the first full round of the year! My goal this round is to get started at my campus fitness center and up my exercise routine – a big deal for me since I’m basically an athletically challenged book nerd who’s never belonged to a gym before. So…I’m a little nervous. Maybe more than a little. But I’m inspired by so many of you here and I’m looking forward to trying something new.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 – 172.0 – Cold and windy, but I took a short walk around campus after I toured the fitness center. We’re still on winter break, so it wasn’t too crowded or intimidating. I’ve got a physical with my new primary care physician tomorrow to get my medical okay and then I should be good to go. Made a delicious, healthy dinner tonight and met my calorie and logging goals. I’m a little surprised at how glad I am to get back to my MFP routine after the holidays.
01/09 – 171.2 – Nice little drop before my appointment today. (Weighed in at 173.0 with shoes and clothes on the doc’s scale.) Waiting on the results of my bloodwork, but my BP is back down to normal – woo hoo! Met up with my daughter for lunch, an indoor walk, and shopping for exercise clothes. Under on calories, but lots of salt, so I may see a bump up tomorrow. Not worried because I’m logging everything and staying on track. And feeling great!
01/10 – 172.2 – There’s that salt bump – happens every time I east out. Walked for over an hour and used some of my exercise calories to have another glass of wine and a piece of chocolate after dinner. Tried a new recipe – Michael Symon’s baked cod shakshuka. Delicious and pretty healthy, although fairly high in sodium. Eating out again tomorrow for my husband’s birthday, so I don’t expect to see a drop for a few days. But I’m going to eat sensibly and otherwise relax and enjoy the weekend.
01/11 – 172.6 – Still climbing, but I’m not going to stress over it. We had a multi-generational birthday celebration for my husband with a a couple of rounds of laser tag followed by a delicious dinner at a local Mexican eatery. We all had a blast! Now I’m totally wiped out!
01/12 – 173.2 – It is what it is. Taking down the tree today, but I’ll try to squeeze in a walk in this unseasonably warm weather. It’s such a gorgeous day that I don’t want to spend it all indoors. Dinner at m mom’s tonight, so I won’t be cooking again, but it’s back to the normal routine tomorrow. (Wrote yesterday’s post last night, but for some reason I couldn’t connect with the server, I gave up and went to bed.)
01/13 – 173.6 – Okay, enough of this. Time to turn this ship around. Walked for an hour in the cool and misty woods, working up a sweat on the hilly terrain. Stopped for an herbal iced tea at a nearby café and was sorely tempted by their luscious blueberry hand pies. But I resisted (and kept to my calorie limit) – guess that’s today’s NSV.
01/14 – 172.8 – That’s a little better. Another day of sticking to my calorie limit and staying hydrated. Rainy day and I had a lab test, so I made this my rest day. Got my doc’s sign-off for the gym with no restrictions, so I’m almost there.
01/15 – 172.8 – Last day of nice weather before it gets cold again, so I walked for an hour at the beach after class. I love the colors of the ocean in that last hour of sunlight! Lunch out tomorrow, so I ate carefully today.
01/16 – 172.2 – Nice to see another drop, but I totally blew my calorie budget on a wonderful lunch out with my sister and our daughters. My sis had chosen a lovely restaurant with a classic French bistro menu. I skipped the wine but couldn’t resist the croque monsieur. Totally worth it, even if I’m working off the sodium for a couple of days. I hadn’t planned on ordering dessert, but it didn’t take much arm twisting to get me to split a chocolate and salted caramel tart with my sister. No regrets, but it’s a good thing the restaurant is an hour away.

Ready for round 101 {38th for me}
OSW 88KG
RSW 59.85 kg (-28.15 kg) or {- 62 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started
01/08 60.0kg...slight uptick but it was all perfect yesterday so I'm not worried. Gym done just stretching to do later.
01/09 60.10 kg. Another minor uptick without a reason as all was perfect yesterday. Plenty of days left for it to go again. Trainers other clients didn't show up this morning so I got his undivided attention... Abs aren't convinced this is a good thing!
01/10 60.10kg and another great workout. Physio this pm for a sports massage. Can't wait for the weekend!
01/11 59.45kg...that was my lowest last year. Now to see new lows. Today I'm going to clean out the sewing room and do my stretches as I've missed then out the last 2 days.
01/12 59.0kg...a new low! So pleased the hard work has paid off this week. Sewing shed cleaned out but stretches not done. Going to do it today morning and evening.
01/13 58.90 kg 1st time for seeing 58 anything since I went above it! Will probably bounce up but I'm happy. Trainer was on fire this morning... Full body plus cardio 💪
01/14 59.2kg. Not a problem as I usually get an uptick after a loss. Just need to keep it small. Gym was tough... Lower body.
01/15 58.8kg.Delighted with the loss! It's a public holiday here in Malawi so I'll be going to the gym a bit later and will do stretches after.
01/16 58.6kg losing like its my 1st week! Gym done and on to work
01/17 59.20kg no reason for the gain but I'm not worried as it seems much more realistic.

10 Day Challenge 101
2020 Starting Weight: 209.5
Current Weight: 207.8
Current Goal: 198
UGW: 148
10-day Goal: 205 (hoping there’s still some water weight to shed)
Focus for next 10 days is tracking, tracking, tracking. Plus daily exercise and daily journaling (which is when/where I do my planning for the next day).

1/8: 208.4 — surprised as I’ve been tracking well, in decent calorie deficit for a week with no big sodium intake or anything. But the point of a 10 day challenge is to track and find patterns to adjust, right? So I’ll keep tracking to find the pattern...
1/9: 207.6 — there it is! Kept to my plan, and now seeing what I expect.
1/10: 208.0 — and there it goes (again)! In deficit (a lot), good workout, no major sodium, but ate dinner very late and woke feeling bloated. New scale, too, maybe this is just reflective of its precision. Will keep to plan and cross fingers a big drop will come before the end!
1/11: 207.2 —ok, whew! Up 0.4/0.6, down 0.8, I can live with that on a daily basis. I’m going to keep keeping on, no adjustments yet. Keep tracking my pattern
1/12: 207.0—ok, good direction. Still feels slow but am in this for the long haul.

1/16 207.4—frustrating!

So...I was anxious about today’s weigh in for good reason. Went up by 0.4, despite eating significantly under calorie target for 1lb/week loss. Had to talk myself out of a funk and figure out potential causes:
1. hormonal fluctuations—I’m peri-menopausal, it could be signaling TOM even if nothing else is happening.
2. I significantly underestimated the calories in all the restaurant food while traveling
3. I need to add more strength training
4. My body just loves my fat cells too much to let go...
Tomorrow is another day, another chance for results. At least I’m still less than I started for the round!9 -

08 jan: 86.9 kg; worked hard cleaning out the rest of the garage, walked the dog for about an hour and a half in total and ate well.
09 jan: 86.8 kg; Yesterday a pallet of firewood we bought was delivered to my house. It was too high to enter the (now cleaned) garage.... so I went up en down the 2-step stairs taking off 2 layers of wood, put it in the garage, then cut a piece of the top of the pallet, my husband drove it in the garage, and I ended up going up and down the stairs again putting all the woodblocks back on top of the other ones. I tought that was enough workout for the day..... Stayed in kcalgoal and walked the dog for an hour and a half of course.
10 jan: 86.5 kg; Strong Curves week 2 workout 2 🏋️♀️ done in stead of yesterday. Walked a bit less than I had planned, since the dog was under the weather, but still managed to have over 10.000 steps 👣.

13 jan: 85.7 kg: It was a lazy Sunday, just walked an hour and a half.
14 jan: 85.7 kg; Yesterday I saw somewhere on the forum a discussion where pop-tart was mentioned. I realy like them, but they are not widely avaliable here in the Netherlands. So I took my 🚴♀️, biked 15 miles to get a single package in the house. After luch I finished workout 1 week 3 Strong Curves, made a cup of tea and heated the well earned pop-tart 😍.
15 jan: 85.6 kg; Walked for an hour to get me some daycream on sale.... ate 190 kcal above schedule and kept myself busy planning a holiday in November in Mexico and Belize.

I’ve started some good healthy habits in Round 100- looking forward to continuing these for the next 10 days. Didn’t lose the amount of weight I wanted to in the last round, but did weigh in at 216 a few days ago. Looking for a ‘mini whoosh’ this 10 days to get me losing some lb!!! Aim is to go to the gym 8 times in the 10 days, always stay under my calorie goal and eat my dinners a bit earlier (not currently eating until after 8pm).
Day/Weight/Comment
1/8 - 216.0 lb (-1.2lb) A great start to the 10 days. Came in just below the daily calories allowance. Missed the gym due to football coaching going on too long. Today I plan to do some cardio at the gym, stick to my calories and avoid any treats on the staff room table.
1/9 -216.6lb- not bothered about the slight weight gain, however; disappointed in myself that I missed a gym session (I could have found time) and are a couple of biscuits from the staff room. Other than that stuck to my calories/ more water needed today- this really is my Achilles heel! Early finish at work today so gym around lunchtime for a heavy leg session. First time at the pub for a month tonight since I became AF a month ago. Lime and soda all the way- never want to go back to what I was!!!
1/10 - 215.4lb (-1.2lb). A good loss yesterday after a few days of no movement. Went to the pub last night and drank AF Becks. Didn’t miss ‘normal’ beer in the slightest, even if the becks didn’t taste that amazing. Ate 200 cals over my allowance, but did gain back lots of exercise calories through the gym and a very active football session. Aim for today is to stay under the calorie goal, go to the gym and drink 2.5l of water.
1/11 - 215.8lb (+.4lb) Wasn’t really feeling it yesterday! Only packed a very small lunch which meant I consumed far too much food after work. Hummous and breadstick binge 🙄. Drank lots of water but didn’t make the gym due to my girlfriend not feeling great (She’s 38 weeks pregnant)
Back to the gym today, do some cardio, deadlifts and some isolation activities. Aim is to be in the 214s by Monday.
1/12 - 215.8lb . Another day of feeling quite groggy. No gym yesterday, must be in the ‘nesting phase’ as all I seem to want to do is clean. Made the most amazing beef and celeriac stew last night, limited my portion and only had a small amount of potato. I WILL go to the gym today- no excuses. Light day planned today.
1/13 - 215.8lb. Ate very healthily today and drank quite a bit of water. Back to work today which always presents its problems with regards to fluid intake. Can never seem to get enough in. Might need to re-assess my 10 day goal. I think, because I’ve got a lot of weight to lose (42 pound) that it would come off quickly. Need to be more realistic and happy to lose 1.5lb a week.
1/14 - 215.2 (-0.6lb) Drank a bit more water than usual, although still need to drink more. Under my calorie goal, and ate a very healthy dinner. Food is all logged in advance for today- just got to stick to it.
1/15 - 214.0 (-1.2lb) Happy with that after a few days of same (ish) weight. Stuck to all my calorie goals yesterday. More of the same today- must continue to up my water intake. Managed to get 1.5 l yesterday, will
make sure I have 2l.
1/16 - 213.8 (-0.2lb) Happy to see another loss today- nice to see it ticking along. Aim to not binge after work and burn some extra calories at football coaching by being more active and running around more. Food is programmed in and I won’t go over. Would
love to see another loss tomorrow, no matter how small that may be.
1/17 - 212.8lb (-1.0lb). A super way to end the round. A total of 4.4lbs lost in 10 days is a more than successful achievement for me. Love these 10 day ‘challenges’- for me it keeps me focused and each round feels like a new challenge. Awesome way to keep me motivated. Aim for today is to continue being AF- Friday nights after work are sometimes a challenge. I just need to remember how much better I feel for not drinking a drop of alcohol. Hope everybody ends the challenge with a loss 🤞10 -

Day/Weight/Comment
01/08 81,7 kg Yesterday I wasn't really into food, ate anyway to keep metabolism up and running. I think I have never been glad in my life before when I had not to eat anymore;)
01/09 81,9 kg went for a walk, calories were good and managed to fast 24hrs in between meals:) TOM soon to be there, I can feel that I have water retentions which will pass in a few days anyway. Today is a regular eating day. It's morning and I have a feeling that I won't be having any problems this time to eat more:-)
01/10 81,9 kg* Food and calories were all good yesterday. Had a trigger directly after the second meal. When it feels like nothing is going to satisfy you..., probably because of hormones. ACV and green tea helped a bit. Only planned on a short walk, maybe 10 minutes and ended up doing 60 minutes:). Don't know if I wish TOM would be there already, then I get rid of the water retentions (well, that's the only pro...). Plan for today: Fast-day, maybe I make it to 24hrs. 5 more hrs to go:)
01/11 80.7 kg Nice! That's about the weight I had before Christmas. Tried MCT oil, only to learn that mine was made from Palm sth and is not good. So back to coconut oil. Why is that, that I mostly end up throwing away the fancy stuff and in the end stick to my natural foods:-)) I never learn. Should stop watching videos of men with big arm muscles and all the fancy products they are promoting...And it didn't make me more awake when I was tired. Taking an iodine pill did the trick much better. tststs...Calories were good, I fasted for 22 hrs. Exercised only a little, was tired. Which was to be expected - hormones (or rather lack of it shortly before TOM).
01/12 80,2 kg Went for a short walk, it was eating-day, was in calories. Two bigger meals were enough. So my next meal will probably tomorrow around 1pm. Noticed that my favourite ring fits comfortly, even after walking when fingers are thicker. Half a month ago it wouldn't fit at all.
01/13 80,2 kg* Went for a longer walk and hit last weeks's exercise goal:) fasted for 24 hrs. I like the way that I feel in a fasted state. Everything feels a bit calmer and slower - but in a good way. Today TOM is hitting strong.
01/14 80,1 kg Stuck to the plan. I start getting used to the IF and I really like it. Fasting seems to be getting easier by the day. My body responds well to the keto/IF regime. I am waiting for less weight loss though, don't think it will continue forever like this;)
01/15 79,3 kg Okay, now I am under my usual set-point. In the past it was always hard to lose weight once I was in the 70s, but - I am doing great so far. Haha, I don't trust it, yet...Yesterday I didn't give in to one of my usual cravings after work in the night. Good.
01/16 79,3 kg* Another stressful job until into the night and the urge to eat. But I stayed strong and meditated instead which released some of the stress. And I had a keto cacao. Maybe I will take a hot shower too to relax more and not turn to food.
01/17 78.9 kg What a nice surprise! Getting down to 78 kg at some point is a first goal. I didn't expect at all it moving forward so quickly. Now I have already the 78 looking at me at the weigh-in:-)
