    Blah - have been off track for a couple of weeks now so have regained 2lbs.
    I've been back to my old snacking habits and giving in to temptation at social occasions (roast dinner, fish and chips, ice cream...) - I'm pretty sure a lot of it is water weight as calories have generally been within range, but it's still not fun to see.
    Just been back through my posts here for motivation and rather than half arsing it like I have been doing, I WILL commit!

    Oh right, it is Wednesday. Well, since I've not posted this anywhere previously, I'll start here.

    6/22- 155.1
    6/29- 152.3

    Still dropping faster than I'd like, even after pushing the kcals up to 1700 per day, and having a couple of notably higher days during food prep.

    6/29 - 152.3
    7/6 - 151.2

    Going to let it ride for one more week and adjust to slow down as needed.

    7/6 - 151.2
    7/13 - 151.9

    About what I was hoping to see this week, though well within a margin of error either way. Going to see how the trend runs over the next two months, making slight adjustments every couple of weeks.

    7/13 - 151.9
    7/20 - 151.5

    Getting pretty static, and I'm seeing about what I would expect. Going to hold this caloric level (1700) for another couple of weeks and see how it runs.

    7/20 - 151.5
    7/27 - 151.2

    Still running well within the expected range, and seeing extremely low variance during daily weigh-ins.

    7/27 - 151.2
    8/3 - 150.1

    Welp, time to average and adjust upward.

    8/3 - 150.1
    8/10 - 154.0

    Going from completely sedentary to lifting six times per week, and being more active outside of that than I have ever been, is definitely having a clear impact on weight fluctuation. Feels good though. Looking forward to seeing how the upward trend actually runs, now that I am running a surplus.

    8/10 - 154.0
    8/17 - 155.4

    Seen all manner of weight fluctuation over this past week, from a high of 158.4 (yesterday), to a low of 152.9. It doesn't surprise me, given the change from doing nothing, to lifting (or some form of resistance training) every day for the last week and a half or so. Already starting to notice a lot of musculature being brought back to life, from it's previously unused state. Going to run for another couple of weeks before I bother photo updating my bulk thread though.

    8/17 - 155.4
    8/24 - 158.5

    Continuing with the pretty rapid fluctuations and swings, though I am seeing a defined upward trend. Going for a couple of more weeks before tinkering with anything. Lifts are up, measurements are acceptable, and calipers haven't changed much. I'll take it, for now.

    8/24 - 158.5
    8/31 - 158.1

    Weight has started to stabilize a bit. I should be able to get a better grasp on things from here forward. Still going to mostly be watching the tape, calipers, and my emerging abdominals.

    8/31 - 158.1
    9/7 - 162.5

    Weight has stabilized at this exact point for the last few days, after a pretty strong falloff following my last refeed. This is likely the set point where I can finally start judging how intake is affecting weight, while also watching composition via tape and calipers.

    9/7- 162.5
    9/14- 167.5

    You never realize just how much water you put away, until a gallon only makes your shakes and PWOs for the day, and you still have a half-gallon of Coke Zero involved.

    SW for most recent high (Aug '15): 153.4
    SW for re-starting keto 9/2/16: 139
    CW: 134!
    Goal range for maintenance (barring unlikely muscle gain ;) ): 130-133
    I'm 5'7" but small-boned, little muscle, and prone to being "skinny-fat."

    185 this morning. Yes, I've gained some since the 183 I posted last time. But...ex-bf is STILL under my roof and I just don't have the energy to weigh/measure/log my food to track my carbs and calories. MOST of my choices are still low carb but there have been numerous evenings when two pieces of cinnamon/sugar toast has been consumed before bed. :( I'm still counting on him to be at least not living in my house by 10/1...although all of his stuff will probably still be there. I also like to drink beer!! LOL! I know, I know...not that great for low carb but I still figure if I can stay in the mid-180's I am successful. I've lost 50 pounds since last August following low-carb. I still walk 2.25 miles every morning which I feel allows me to maintain while not watching my food as closely as I need to in order to lose.

    Triplets! OK, fraternal triplets. ;)

    I spent most of my adult life yoyoing between 139 and 160. I was relatively happy but never quite content at 139. Just in the last few years I managed to get a bit below that and am really happy with it. Extra weight tends to go so disproportionately to my belly, those few extra lbs make a big difference in how easy it is to find clothes that fit well!
