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 5 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Finally getting my calories back under control after being careless about it over Christmas and New Year.

1/3: 176.4 lb
Exercised and stayed within calories.

1/4: 175.7 lb
All good again. I am exercising quite a bit. I think I need a rest day though because my body feels tired. That will make it harder to stay under calorie target.

1/5: 174.8 lb
Stayed within calories but it was hard because I didn't have any exercise calories. Drank lots of ginger tea and ate lots of celery with a cottage cheese dip to get by. Started TTOM which always gives me a big loss.

1/6: 175.3 lb
All good. No surprises that there was a bit of a bounce because of my recent losses the past few days.

1/7: 174.6 lb
Kids made pizza and cheesecake for dinner. I ate back all my exercise calories which I usually don't do - I usually only eat back half. The food was delicious and I am glad I could show myself that I can resist the urge to overeat.

SheilaBoneham, thanks for the cute puppy picture! Enjoy your cute, happy, waggy little friend!

Posting late today, due to a busy morning! All the best to everyone for a fabulous, health-building day!

SW: 204
Day/Weight/Comment
1/2 204 (Wow. I gained five pounds over the holiday. It was a real shocker to see this number, although the fit of my pants should have provided a clue! Ate well today and exercised. Drank herb tea only after 7pm, which is a good strategy for me when I am trying to lose weight!)
1/3 202 (Two pounds were obviously water weight! Plan for today: Eat on plan and track. 30+ mins brisk walk. 2-5 min. cardio burst 4x during the day. Lower body strength training 40 mins.)
1/4 199 (?? Probably water weight and losing the carbs of the holiday from my gut? My muscles are slightly sore from weight training on Monday, so this will account for a pound or two as well, which might come off in the next few days? I’ll take it! Today, fewer carbs and more veggies. I ate a noodle bowl yesterday, which used up a lot of my day’s calories, but I felt a bit depleted and ate the carbs with great enjoyment!)
1/5 200 (Sore today, and it is showing on the scale. All good! My eating was really good yesterday, and I got good exercise. No snackig after 7:00, but I did have tortilla chips with one meal... blue corn chips are so delicious! My post-holiday detox, no alcohol, is so far problem-free.)
1/6 199 (Still quite sore, even after a rest day! Plan to work upper body today, in between trying to get my taxes done before school starts. Eating was good yesterday, and I stayed on plan, but tonight I may have to negotiate a restaurant meal. My strategy is to have a salad and lean protein, with no carb- or fat-laden extras. I may have a bite of someone’s dessert, but, for a person who grew up in an era where brewed coffee that had turned to creosote over many hours on the warming plate, tempered with--gag, cough, barf--powdered creamer, was the norm, a cappuccino really does feel like a treat!)
1/7 199 (Had a good day for eating on plan, but was quite busy and did not do my planned workout. If the scale isn’t moving, it is probably due to that. It would be easier if exercise alone or planned eating alone would do the trick, but for me it is always—always--a combination of the two that results in weight loss! Today I will do BOTH!)

Day/Weight/Comment

1/2 221.8

1/3 220.3 (-1.5/-1.5) Not the best of days but better than previous as I have had no structure. I did plan meals for yesterday but got caught up in a snack frenzy toward the end of the day. I did manage to increase my water from 32 ounces on 1/2 to 80 ounces. I have planned my meals for today as well as targeting water at 80 ounces again.

1/4 219.9 (-0.4/-1.9)

1/5 218.8 (-1.1/-3.00) What a pleasant surprise. Expected a bump as we had leftovers from the weekend that were calorie rich! And I had bread and bread is not normally my friend.
Today's plan is a chicken and vegetable stir fry and again, lots and lots of water.

1/6 219.9 (+1.1/-1.90) Well that was short lived. I guess it took at day to catch up with me. Yesterday was a good day with the chicken and veggies so I should see a drop in the morning. 🤞🏽

1/7 220.3 (+0.4/-1.5) This was my first weigh-in of the morning. Later on I stepped on and saw 218.4. I record the first weigh in of the morning..even though I may "check in" again. Not excited about tomorrow. I went to dinner for my husband's birthday...hard to track and know exactly....

Hi everyone, I’m Amanda. I did these 10 day challenges all through last summer and most of fall. I stopped due to some medical issues in November and I really missed it but just couldn’t swing it. Anyway, I’m back, having gained 5 pounds but still with the medical issue. So, I’m giving this a try again as this is the challenge that works the best for me!
Good luck to everyone!

Yesterday was a tough day medical wise and I really, really wanted to drown my sorrows in dark chocolate. After much internal debate I chose 1 Oz of dark chocolate and a strawberry smoothie. It did the trick but the chocolate would have too 🫤

Went to bed hungry last night, which has not happened in many, many months. I think my body wants to stress eat.

Dinner out last night and I worked hard to make good choices but you just can’t control or appropriately log when you’re at a restaurant, especially a buffet. Did my best.

@kristawatkins52 Wow, you’re handling so much! GREAT job on the not smoking. I think quitting smoking was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Are you using an app or anything for support?

Thank you! Quitting smoking has been quite a challenge, though by not drinking as well I have found not smoking a lot easier. I don't think I could do it if I was drinking at all, as I started smoking by only doing it when I was drinking, and it had become a worse habit from there.

I am not using an app. I am just facing it as I do my eating challenges right now. I try to keep myself busy, distract myself with something else if I feel a craving coming on, and just remind myself every time I think about smoking why I am quitting in the first place. I am doing well so far, but if I find myself struggling later, may have to change my approach.

Hi all!

I used to poach pear halves (even canned) in the microwave and melt dark chocolate into some of the juice as a chocolate sauce to pour over them. It really does feel decadent, especially with a little bit of brandy or brandy flavour in the sauce. This works with fried bananas, too (tiny skiff of butter in a non-stick pan.) My birthday is coming up, so this may be my solution!

This sounds like a fantastic idea. I may have to try this with some pineapple or strawberries if I am really craving some ´dessert´. Thanks for the idea @meagop !

Yesterday was another good day, though not quite as good as I would want, but I am trying to change my mindset to ensure this time this is a lifestyle change, not a short term "diet". Went ice skating with my kids for 2 hours, so really got a good workout in. However, I forgot to eat before we left, so ended up snacking on 3 mini donuts (all that was available) and then ate an entire medium sized Italian style pizza. However, the pizza was delicious, and I was still able to stay within my calories as these were the only things I ate yesterday. On another note, today marks 1 week cigarette and alcohol free!
