    Small brag, I hit 50lbs down today. I usually don't count it until I've been at or under for a week but damnit, I've been busting my *kitten* to get here.

    Congrats!!!

    New week, new goal. Trying to burn more calories than I eat in a day for that calorie deficit. So far I'm getting in just over 5 miles before work each morning. Then I'm adding in a walk on my lunch break (I practice intermittent fasting and only eat once a day, about 9 pm so I can walk on my lunch instead of eat) and then another 90-120 min workout after work. Going strong!

    I did all my exercise stuff yesterday. 95 of each yesterday. Doing the step jacks in 2 bits since the sound of the grinding of the muscles (or whatever) from my never-properly-healed torn rotator cuff grates on my sensibilities. Doesn't hurt. Just sounds horrid. 8 minutes on the stretches. It's hot and humid here. Very.

    Still keto, still losing: my trend (for today anyway) actually has me beating my target date.
    Totally stoked. Totally psyched!

    I've done two runs this week. Having some issues with my knee and shoulder since my fall so no strength training. Then had a tooth issue and might need a root canal so yeah. Not my best week. Hoping next week is better.

    I missed my first strength workout of the month last night...my shin started bothering me on the first exercise so I called it quits...however, I made is almost the whole month, and I'll focus on stretching today, then get back to it on Thursday and see how the leg recovers.

    6/21 - I failed at staying off the scale, but the number was lower so I'm good with staying off for the rest of the month.

    I also failed at keeping my carbs below 30 for the first few days, but I have been successful since 6/4, even with a Father's Day cookout at my parents' house. I brought my own fat bombs and stayed away from my sister's and mom's homemade desserts.

    Planning to finish this month within my goals!

    Got my fasting mojo back and a slight bounce up is back down below my goal weight again and it is only day 2 of the fast, I am shooting for 4/5 days this time.

    My ketone level has dropped as well as the excess water weight, not sure what is up with that turn of events. Normally ketone climb up during fasting but I have gone from .07 to .05, still in my target nutritional ketosis range but I would prefer seeing the .07+ instead of .07- range.

    Kudos to all who are nailing it in this challenge.

    6/21: Dumbbell Standing Abs and 20 min Pilates
    Amy is obsessed with abs...which would be lovely if the last chub would get off so you can actually see them. Le sigh...

    6/20- Rest day, literally. I napped for like 2.5 hrs and still slept like the dead. Stupid back pain. :(
    6/21 - Zombies, RUN! C25K W5D1 - Small brag, the two ten minute freeform runs went amazingly well. They were done before I knew it!

    My big goal for June, that I had set back in the winter, was that I wanted to be at or below 250 lbs by the solstice.

    It's June 18th, the solstice is on Wednesday, and as of this morning I have hit my goal with room to spare! Down to 243 lbs today!

    And of course, I'm continuing the other good stuff; staying on target with my carbs and calories, keeping up with the excercise, ~ 60 min / day during the week and a bit more on the weekends.

    Cheers!

    Just gotta bump this one back up. Congrats!! :)
