    Started 2nd week of Feb

    SW - 242
    CW - 209.6
    GW (initial) - 170 (13% BF)
    GW (2nd) - 185

    I actually weigh daily. It helps me keep accountable to myself. The second goal is my planned keto "bulk", after I kill the fat, that involves a lot of pick things up and put them down. I know my lean mass (148 lbs) due to regular bod pod readings, so BF% is more my true goal than an actual weight.

    6/15 - 208.6 lbs - 28.6% BF

    CW 315 today
    GW <200

    I've noticed a trend in my weight loss that it stops for a few days, and maybe even goes up a pound, and then suddenly drops, and then repeats the cycle. I understand that water weight and by mere fact of whether your body has gotten rid of that dinner you ate makes a difference. I don't know if anybody else experiences that or not.

    Can't say I've been doing this long enough to find a trend, plus I don't weigh everyday... I'm very interested in trends though so may start weighing daily...

    I'm going the wrong direction... Don't understand why but it's not because of eating off plan foods so I'm not worried about it. It'll sort itself out.


    SW: 165 (was May 2015)
    CW: 136.2 (up 0.2 from last week)
    GW: 132.8 to get back to Aprils lowest weight

    CW: 199.2 (6/9/16)
    GW: 120 (5/28/17)

    Day 12 for me...I'm hoping this thread keeps me motivated and holds me accountable. I fell off the wagon 4 days ago and I feel terrible.

    Today June 16
    SW 205 (5/28/16)
    CW 203 (6/16/16)
    GW 120 (5/28/17)

    So, after I fell off the wagon last week I didn't get back on it. I'm back on it today though and trying to hold on for dear life! ; ) I've got to do this!

    It's Thursday but I'll post.

    SW (like February 5th?) 131 lbs
    CW: 117.9 lbs

    GW: Was 112, now I am not so sure.

    I'm mostly chillaxing on weight. I'm not in maintenance per se, but I am working on my half-marathon training also have been investing a lot of time in my CASA volunteer training. I'll check in on calories and how I want to athletically train (probably switch to lifting) after mid-July. I imagine my weight will continue to be 117.5-118.5 for a while. I would hope so anyway.

I understand that water weight and by mere fact of whether your body has gotten rid of that dinner you ate makes a difference. I don't know if anybody else experiences that or not.

    This is totally normal; fat/weight loss is never linear. Best way to see it is with an app that shows you what your trend is rather than looking at each day as its own separate weight. Then you will notice the steady downtrend over the long run. Can't remember the name of the app here but quite a few use it. Weight Tracker or Happy Scale are two I've seen. I don't use them as I have been in maintenance for a couple years now, but it can be very encouraging if you are a bit obsessive about the scale.

    Highest Weight: 166 lbs - Oct 2013
    GW range: 132-136
    CW: 142.2 (I haven't been eating low carb for a few months, lol - now back to under 50g net for weight loss, then anything under 125g net works for me for maintenance)

    I want to get back to my 18.5% BF (not bad for a 52 y.o. woman B) )

    WOW, so many of you guys are doing amazingly well.

    I started Memorial Day weekend, and just happened to check out the scale today (hadn't done it since I started).
    I've lost 7 lbs in 15 days.

    SW: 248 5/31/16
    CW: 241 6/15/16
    GW: 150

    You are doing amazing too! That's wonderful loss.

    SW - 294lbs (21st)
    Mid Feb - 276.5lbs (19st 10.5lbs)
    7th Jun - 250lbs (17st 12lbs)
    14th Jun - 247lbs (17st 9lbs) lost 3lbs this week total loss so far is 47lbs
    21st Jun - 250lbs (17st 12lbs) not sure why but put on 3lbs this week so back to 44lb loss - I did go over carbs a few days this week so its probably water weight. I am going to change my carb allowance to enable me to eat a bit more variety and see if I can lose doing that - if not will go back to carnivorous diet
    GW - 140lbs (10st)
