We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

4/17 120.5. GKI 9.3 Lots of carbs yesterday because I ate a bowl of bran flakes trying to get things moving and 1 slice of veggie pizza at the quilt show. Quite happy with that! Walked over 7000 steps - about 3 times by usual - very happy with that too!
4/18 120.5 GKI 9.3 Hung out with recent widower friend. Lox, cream cheese, crackers and cheese followed by Italian sausage and cheesecake.
4/19 121.5 GKI 7.5 OMAD Great Greek salad with steak. Eating was good, I only ate about 1/8 of a pita. Increase is from carbs over the weekend and no TMI. I think I’m full of 💩 LOL I couldn’t pass that up. Sorry if I offended anyone.
4/20 119.5 GKI 7.2 still waiting for TMI but almost no carbs yesterday. Finished Greek salad (maybe 3/4 c) made steak and cauliflower for dinner and even had a glass of wine
4/21 120.0 GKI 19.6 Subs at bingo last night, no plastic ware so I pulled the bread apart and put the meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion between the remaining crusts. It was a substantial portion which was surprising. Apparently, too substantial! I wish this wind would blow in some rain. The dust in the air is horrid.
4/22 119.0 GKI 9.6 Golden Corral this afternoon with neighbors

*******************************
Hi everyone, my last round here was in March 2019 (R69) with a weight of 185.6. Back now at 225 (ugh!) Unchecked thyroid levels = rapid weight gain during the height of covid quarantine. I don’t have a thyroid due to cancer and blah, blah, here I am today heavier than ever.

Anyway, this challenge was really helpful in keeping me accountable a few years ago, so I am jumping back in! Will do my first official weigh in tomorrow morning.

Love seeing some familiar faces still at it here. You are all AMAZING!

4/19: DNW
4/20: 224.8 (-.2) - getting over a terrible cold. Plan for the day is to go on a short walk, keep up with my water goal, and get my Fitbit back up and running.
4/21: 225 (+.2) - I expected this. Too much sodium yesterday.
4/22: 224 (-1.0) - there we go . . . Happy Friday, everyone!

4/17: 133.6 - Happy Easter! Weird eating yesterday - one large meal early afternoon with a lot of heavy snacking and tasting the rest of the day as I prepared for our Easter celebration. Not getting enough sleep though - really, really need to work on this one.
4/18: 133.6 - Another one large meal at lunch with waaaay too many nibbles the rest of the day celebrating Easter with extended family . Good sleep for once though and managed to get my workout in.
4/19: 133.6 - Back on track with eating, although still finishing up food from Easter which is pretty calorie dense. Good workouts and good sleep.
4/20: 134.7 - Had good workouts and good sleep. We met some friends at a restaurant and I still had a hankering for something sweet when we got home. Managed to stop myself before I went over calories, but it was super close.
4/21: 134.7 - Normal-ish workouts and eating. Finally moved into the 21st century and got some bluetooth earbuds to use out on my walks. So convenient!
4/22: 134.0 - Lots of snacky eating yesterday. Need to get back to more balanced meals. We have a lot of social things planned for the next week, so it may be tough.

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!

4/22 did not weigh. Tested positive for covid on Wednesday night after symptoms progressively got worse Wednesday during the day. It took seconds for the at-home test to turn positive the second time around. My fever broke last night luckily but still feeling weird today. Please be careful out there for yourselves. Covid isn’t fun at all, even if you’re a healthy individual. That’s my Covid psa for the day. The interesting piece was looking at my Garmin data which showed all sorts of increases in stress on Tuesday and then the following days. My resting heart rate also shot up 10 bpm more than average. Now I’m just resting for the next few days and trying to do everything I can to help my body heal/recover.

So sorry you caught Covid.
🫂 🫂 🫂,good healing vibes, and 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 heading your way. Hoping you have a full, and speedy recovery. Extra hydration may help the headaches!

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 / 167.6 / Third day in a row holding my normal BMI weight so that makes me feel happy. Working on getting a bit of a cushion now so that upward fluctuations are not putting me back in the overweight category. This is really just an "on paper" goal that makes me feel good, but I am looking forward to it. The sun is out, we've started the day with a large brunch, and we're hoping to get out to the mountains for a bit of adventure yet today.
4/18 / 168.6 / Busy work from home day today but I squeezed in my Peloton ride as part of my lunch hour. My husband and I will walk our dog after supper instead now that we have daylight for longer. Turkey meatballs with broccoli and a cauliflower potato mash for supper tonight.
4/19 / 167.6 / My magic number of this round We are getting a big snowstorm here in Alberta. Busy day in the office with a walk at lunch. Waiting for my turn on the Peloton tonight.
4/20 / 167.6 / Long commute in this morning due to bad roads, but they were better by this evening. Got a walk in again at lunch. Chicken for dinner and then I'll ride the bike again. Days fly by with the commute taking up so much time.
4/21 / 166.4 / Two cool things happened today. Firstly, I saw my doctor for my first physical since I lost 125 pounds. He was so congratulatory and it made me feel like a million bucks to know I'd done what he likely thought I would never do. Secondly, I took the opportunity to make two informal meetings I had with my staff walking meetings and it's equated to over 15,000 steps today and counting.
4/22 / 165 / Day started with lots of snow so I spent my lunch break shoveling the walkway. I want to get in a Peloton ride after work but we also have dinner with friends and we're walking to their house so we'll see if I can fit it all in!

2nd Goal - 179
UG - 149
Step Goal 50,000 at some point

4/17 ~ 184.6 - 15,100 steps and 95 active minutes. Went for a beautiful 6k walk around a lake then a visit with the GDs they are so sweet. Easter dinner today and hopefully a good walk in. Hope everyone had a great round.
4/18 ~ 185.9 - 14,200 and 89. Got in a small walk and had a great dinner with family including dessert, chocolate and wine!! SO has gone off to work, looks like a few weeks so I should be able to get back to my lower weight soon. Just have to fight all this rain in the forecast. Oh so looking forward to sunny days.
4/19 ~ 186.6 - 17,600 and 118. Little unexplained jump up. My days have been like that the last few, not worried as I am still going in the right direction for calories and exercise. Got in a great walk yesterday in the pouring rain.
4/20 ~ 185.8 - 21,800 and 156. Long after work walk. NSV I have fit back into some of my spring clothes! Plus some of the clothes I've been wearing are a little too large. In the next few weeks I'll remove them from my closet. Scale reads are all over the place and I have a small road trip into Vancouver Thursday/Friday which I'm sure will effect my calorie intake and exercise but I am aware. The 170's are just going to take a few tries to get to, lol.
4/21 ~ 183.8 - 17,100 and 118. It was pouring rain but I got out there and got SOAKED! I do enjoy my walks even in the rain. I don't think I will be able to weigh in tomorrow or will be a different scale or maybe when I get back home late late Friday night, will see. Nice to see this 183 but after my road trip it'll bounce back up. I just have to get back here and I'll be fine!

4/22 ~ DNW - 13,600 and 76. Not bad for lots of driving and sitting. Hotel had a scale but the battery was dead. Ate mindfully and slept horribly. Happy Friday all!

SW: 199.6 on 4/12

Goals: Lose some weight in 10 days. Even if it’s 0.2 ounces. Weight lifting and closing my rings daily is my goal. Along with averaging a deficit each week!

This is my first round. I will weigh on 4/26. Weighing everyday drives me nuts! I lost 52 pounds over 3 years, but I’ve gained 25 back :-/. Time to get serious about getting it back off!

4/17 - Easter celebrations! 1922 calories, closed activity rings
4/18 - Back on track! 1678 calories, closed activity rings
4/19 - 1794 calories, closed activity rings. Need a little less calories to be in a deficit but don’t want to deprive to the point of wanting to binge.
4/20 - 1870 calories. Did not close rings 😑. Did not exercise
4/21 - 1221 calories and it’s only lunch time! 🫣. 1 hour of cardio is done so rings will be closed. I May lift some weights later today. Obviously I will need to eat a light dinner to stay on track. Update. Closed my rings and had about 1850 calories.
4/22 - Rings closed but still plan to hit the gym tonight. 1414 calories so far and I haven’t had dinner yet. A reasonable dinner and some walking will make today a success. There is no room for snacks tonight so I have to stay focused on the goal! Happy Friday!

Hi I'm Allison. I've been experiencing 2 types of things regarding my weight. Either it stays the same - at 180, OR, I go 2 pounds down, then 2 pounds up - LOL. Time to change this. A couple of years ago I made it down to 160. But my calorie intake was too low and therefore unsustainable.

Day/Weight/Comment
4/17 - 180
4/18 - 180 ** Gonna try to be positive and make this work
4/19 - 179.6 ** I’m going to make today a good day food wise. My legs hurt yesterday - so I think today I’ll take a break from walking/treadmill/elliptical - and do some arm work. Will continue yoga, too. On Day 3 of Yoga with Adriene - her 30 day series which began in January. There’s so much I can’t do ! But, I’m still going to try.
4/20 - 179.4 ** Yesterday was successful in terms of me eating within my calorie range. And I did my activities. I see no reason why I can’t repeat this today.
4/21 - 179.4 ** Woke up early - felt hungry. Just drinking some hot coffee and waiting a few hours before eating breakfast. I hope to be active today outside - weather should be nice. And I want to get my bicycle out of the shed. Haven’t ridden it in at least 2 years. I readjusted my weight loss goal to 1 pound per week - and it put my calorie intake at 1290. Also I decided not to continue with the 30 day yoga series because I can’t do half the things the instructor does. I need to do in person classes - or get a teacher to help me figure out a routine that works for me.
4/22 - 179.4 ** I’m still pushing forward today with eating at my suggested calorie level.

4/23 - 179.6 ** I’m considering weighing myself once a week instead of daily. This way I’m only disappointed I didn’t lose one time per week instead of 7. LOL.

@ashleycarole86 Bravo, Ashley! It feels great when we can walk into our doctor's office and show off all our hard work. They know how hard it is and really appreciate what we've done!

@playhardkf2017 Oh no! I'm glad you're starting to feel better and hope you bounce right back!

4/17 192.6 (+3.6) I had a huge binge day yesterday. I was planning to have an indulgence meal and then never stopped. I enjoyed every minute. The beauty of this is that I was confident I could get back on plan. Under calories today and a nice long walk with the dogs on a beautiful Easter Day. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!
4/18 192.0 (+3.0) No organized exercise and a busy day today. Weight is starting to drop already. Now, just to stay consistent.
4/19 190.0 (+1.0) Heading to the pool this morning. My vacation begins in two and a half weeks. I’ve got a lot to do before then. I was hoping to be closer to 180 by now, but still happy with all of the progress I’ve made in the last year. I can’t believe I’m 30 pounds away from goal weight. I saw a number of former co-workers yesterday and they told me over and over again how great I looked. Some days I really see the difference and others all I can see are the rolls that still exist. My plan for vacation is to enjoy my meals but to eat smaller portions. I’ll be gone for two weeks. I know I’ll gain weight, but hopefully it resets my body so when I return, I’m in losing mode and can finally bust past this semi plateau. On countdown!!
4/20 189.0 (0) Feeling great today and happy to be back where I started this round. No indulgence meal until the very end. Not much exercise today beyond a walk with the dogs. I started adding half a scoop of protein powder to my oatmeal in the morning. I wasn’t getting quite enough protein.
4/21 190.2 (+1.2) It’s amazing what a salty meal can do. Lucky it’s only temporary. No organized exercise today, just playing with paint.
4/22 190.0 (+1.0) It’s been an incredibly busy week and I haven’t stayed on top of logging like I usually do. That’s playing a bit of havoc, but things will slow down in the next few days, thank goodness.
4/23 188.2 (-.8) Phew! Did you hear my huge sigh of relief from your house? My low weight was 188 on April 12th. I’m definitely adjusting to the slower weight loss and am not expecting huge whooshes. Just seeing it come down little by little is great. I had brunch with some of my friends yesterday. The big art auction for charity where one of my paintings will be available is April 30th. I did a brief fashion show yesterday and my friends helped me decide on an outfit. I’m so excited and will confidently sport an amazing dress for the first time in decades.

Day/Weight/Calories/Comment

4/17 - 178.8
Ok, made yesterday’s <179 goal today, in spite of a few jelly beans last night. We’re going to friends’ for dinner, so I’m eating light during the day. Happy Easter, Passover, Ramadan, and whatever else you might be celebrating! 🪺

4/18 - 179.6
Not a surprise after last night’s dinner. I didn’t try to count calories, though I may still enter what I remember. Other than jelly beans, nothing was too crazy caloric. Off this morning for evaluation for upcoming cataract surgery. Not looking forward to this adventure.

4/19 - 181
Time lag from Sunday + salt yesterday. Calories were good, so this is temporary. Eye eval went well yesterday and I’m scheduled for June surgeries, but I still have a lot of Qs and feel like I’m being rushed into this. I’m going to do a bunch of research and then decide whether to go forward or postpone. The only vision issue I have is night driving, and I rarely do that. We’ll see. Off to doggy school!

4/20 - 180.2
Ok, headed back in the right direction. I still feel I can hit my 178 goal this round. Agility class today, so I’ll get some exercise. Last week, Rory knocked me down—ran into me on a turn toward a jump. Thank goodness we have nice padded mats. Hoping to stay on my feet today!

4/21 - 179.6

4/22 - 179.6
I snacked a bit last night, but not too horribly. Off for coffee with a good friend. Happy Friday!

4/23 - 180
Woops. Boy, it doesn’t take much to boing me right back up. Calories were only slightly high yesterday. Oh, well. Gorgeous day—my garden calls!
