    New to this. I went keto for 2 months over the summer and lost 30 pounds. Then I joined a gym where the trainer continued to say that i wouldnt lose weight once I added carbs in. I took a month off and only gained .5 of a pound without exercise (because im the type that has to prove people wrong) so now im back to lose the rest of my weight. I think once I hit goal, Ill always stay under 100-120g of carbs per day. I truly like this WOE. At the moment, im on limited dairy, but i do eat some cheese (if its part of a dish).

    SW (MFP Weight): 250 (I started my MFP profile in 2011 but was 250 on 2/15/16 when I restarted my weightloss journey)
    CW: 177.6 (just restarted keto today)
    GW 12/24: 148
    UGW (Hopefully by 4/17 when im in New Orleans): 125

    Im 5'4"

    I graduate from college in May of next year and I want to hit my ultimate goal of 125 by then. Im 22 so I want to get my weight under control now, before i hit the real workforce (Elementary Education Major).

    Right now, I dont have any major loose skin, but I can pinch a small amount of my belly and its all skin. I am terrified of loose skin, so I have started a lifting routine. Hopefully it all sorts itself out by next summer, but I was told by my insurance that loose skin is life threatening and they would pay for most of the surgery, if needed.

    ARRGGGHHH! Gained 6 lbs. I know why - stress snacking on junk. Even staying in my goals I know I need to back off eating some of this stuff I'm eating. I've also become slacking with the food scale. I'd gotten really good at eyeballing 4 ounces of meat but well...we know how that goes. And I stopped walking (again). I went from 5 miles almost every day to about 4000 steps a day. With my back hurting and the stress of this refi/appraisal as well as stupid stuff going on - my ISP not working properly so it's tough to get my job done, the central air freezing up and needed cleaned out, blah blah blah...life stuff... I'm a food mess and need to stop having "treats" and so freaking much cheese.

    So here we go:

    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

    6/22 - 208.0 lbs - 28.3%

    6/29 - 205.9 lbs - 27.6% BF

    7/6 - 204.2 - 27% BF (149 lbs lean mass)

    I actually say 203.2 earlier this week, but I think I am holding a bit of stress weight from a couple of awful days at the office.

    7/13 - 200.8 - 25.7% BF (149 lbs lean mass)

    GW: 170ish - ~10% BF

    Still cruising along with the fat loss. Its about time for another BodPod measurement to get updated numbers and make sure my lean number is still accurate.

    7/20 - 198.2 (onederland!!) - 25.8% be (147 lbs of lean mass per body pod yesterday)

    7/27 - 199.8 - 26.4% BF - Bit of a rebound, had a couple carby meals this week, with one last night, so there may be some water retention.

    8/3 - 197.6 - 25.6% BF (147lbs lean) - Back on the loss train, although, I do keep bouncing around the 197 mark, maybe it's another one of my body's "set points". I had one at 210 until I finally broke through after a month.

    8/10 - 196.8 - 25.3% BF (147 lbs lean) - Not bad, hopefully I keep trending down. This is the lowest I have seen on the scale since starting the weight loss plan

    8/18 - 198.0 - 25.8% BF (147 Lean) - Back up this week - I need to curb the drinking, I think that is whats been holding me back. Its keto approved booze, but Ive been doing 4-5 nights a week due to dating and social activities....or I could take up running to make up the difference.

    8/24 - 196.6 - 25.2% BF (147 Lean) - Well, 3 days of not drinking definitely helps. Im not drinking the rest of the week, so I think I'll get a true idea of what my true weight is with out the inflamed hangover state.

    8/31 - 196.6 - 25.2% BF (147 lean) - Still flat - Ate an entire medium pizza Sunday to help with a raging hangover, its been the biggest cheat I've had since March. Same as last week, need to cut down the summer fun a bit.

    Just coming off special lady time ;) and I'm hovering between 168 - 169 pretty much every morning. No loss for a couple of weeks now.

    I'm trying to eat intuitively rather than recording every single thing, and I'm not gaining at least, but I find myself habit eating. Right now it's time to be making breakfast, and I was just standing in the kitchen thinking to myself why am I going to make myself bacon and eggs with hollandaise sauce when I'm not even hungry?

    Watch though, right before its time to leave for work I will suddenly be hungry and have no time to make it... LOL I was thinking, since I know I have a company lunch today anyway, to maybe just stick with coffee and HWC this morning, and forego my daily bacon and eggs.

    Last night I wasn't hungry at dinner time, but I'd made dinner so I ate it. And I had a sugar free jello with whip cream after! Why did I eat all that when I wasn't hungry?? Just because it was dinner time?

    5ft 7
    Sw: 308
    Cw: 255
    Gw: 150

    Scale has been bouncing around between 252 - 255 all week. I haven't lost much lately but pants are definitely a lot looser so maybe I've gained some muscle.

    So I have questions. I have my goal for fat set at 140 grams. I find it hard meeting that a lot. All I have read says eat fats, meet fat goal, meet fat macros, etc. So, am I okay to not meet it?
