    @SModa61 You should enter a 5K! I did my first at about your age and weight. There was the option to walk or run. I’m not a runner and it took me about an hour. I did a few more over the years and just aimed to get a slightly better time each time. You can do it!

    @quiltingjaine I was looking into them last night. Right now they are all virtual, which is a little different, but also, maybe not so bad. thanks for the encouragement

    Wonder if we could do a virtual 5K from this group? Maybe we pick a week and those who want to, walk or run (I'd be walking it) wherever they wish, but we "train" for it together. Then anytime within a week (or maybe a 10 days) we pick a day to do our 5K when the weather is decent wherever we live, and we celebrate together. I need to be training for something, that's for sure.

    That would be so fun!

    11/6: 221.6 (-0.2)/29.3 (0.0). Hey everybody. So... my scale broke, I got frustrated, and I've been having back problems and some GI issues. I just started weighing in again a couple of days ago, which magically coincided with the beginning of a new round. So here I am! I also happened to start keto on 11/4, for the first time in a couple of years. It's worked out REALLY well for me in the past, so I'm excited. No matter what, I'm happy to be back here!

    11/7: 219.8 (-1.8)/28.9 (-0.4). I love keto SOOOOOO much. I eat, I'm not hungry, I like the food, and I lose weight. And I can finally stop watching the various cable news outlets to get updates on the election. I am going to lift weights today (which I have not done in a while). For those of you on keto, what's a good number on the "ketone" tests to determine if you're in the right area? And does it matter what time of day I choose to pee on a stick?

    When I did keto, I used a cheapo breathalyzer off eBay. I don't remember much about what numbers I wanted or anything, but it was a convenient way of checking ketones

    My only other comment, is do it smarter than me. How I did it apparently did not match my digestive system and I ended up laid up for months which culminated in a hemorrhoidectomy. I did love it, and planned to stick with it, but that did not work out.

    Round 131

    Age: 39
    Height: 5’ 3”
    SW: 163
    CW: 144.4
    GW: 140
    UGW: 125

    GW for this round: 142.5

    Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
    Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
    Round 128 (3): 150.4 to 148.0 (-2.4 lbs)
    Round 129 (4): 148.0 to 146.0 (-2.0 lbs)
    Round 130 (5): 146.0 to 144.4 (-1.6 lbs)

    Goals for this round:
    - Lose 2 lbs
    - Meal prep breakfast for at least 6 days
    - Add Just Dance 2020 to morning workout 4-5x a week to increase cardio on top of Ring Fit strength exercises

    11/03 - 143.8 - Ok, I think I’m back to my normal trend after Halloween. I’m really, really anxious about the election today here in the US though, and it will be a struggle all day not to eat those feelings.

    11/04 - 141.6 - Well, that was another “wait, what the...?” moment on the scale this morning. I’d be ecstatic if some of this loss stays around, but I think a chunk of it is due to not being able to eat much of anything yesterday afternoon/evening. Still, by breaking 143 I have now officially lost 20 lbs!

    11/05 - 142.4 - Completely expected that bump back up; I was going to be happy with anything under 143. I ordered my “reward” workout outfit (for getting to 145) a week or so ago and it should be arriving in the next day or two. I can’t wait for it to get here - I just hope it fits!

    11/06 - 141.6 - And back down again! Wow, I might make it to 140 before Thanksgiving (which would be awesome). Noticing more definition in my arms and legs, which is really encouraging.

    11/07 - 141.8 - Beautiful sunny fall day - cool and crisp. Hope to go for a nice walk later today. I’d been trying for the past few days to watch the moment the election was called... and I missed it by minutes since I was exercising this morning. 😂. Oh well! Made it to the last world on Ring Fit - hopefully can beat the final boss before the end of this round.

    @UTmom81 What a great idea! As I mentioned, I was looking into "official" 5K races and they were all visual. But classic ones that were coming were "turkey trot" (was walk/run any time x days before), Night event wearing glow sticks - I think that was associated with new years eve. Ideas on how to organize the 5k? and even more, how to "train together"?

    I'm not a runner (I'm a walker; walk well over 5K everyday, probably twice as many) but yes I'm prepared to give it a go at training to run a 5K.
