01/28
01/29
01/30..144.4 Did 75 on ellip yesterday. Goal for this round is to getto or below 143.4- baby steps. Lots of stress in home life not helping lately
01/31...144.4 Did another 75 on ellip yesterday and ate well within macros. Today, gym.
02/01... 145 Went to gym yesterday and got a great workout in. Went out for a belated birthday happy hour and I'm hoping water retention from wine, etc is reason for weight increase. Today, a day of virtue. Happy Thursday.
02/02... 144 ok, down a bit. Need to lose .6 to reach goal for this round. Doable. Today, a pool class and perhaps some gym. Happy Friday.
02/03.. 144.4 Did a 45 min pool aqua aerobics yesterday. So much fun. Ae sensibly. No wine. 3 days left ot lose 1.1 pounds.
02/04... 143.6 Not sure why the big drop but I'll take it. Got chicken marinating last night for a great Mediterranean chicken dish that has green olives for dinner today. That and spinach for me and some rice too for the others. I'm prepared. Maybe the gym.
02/05.. 143.4 .. goal for this round. Now to continue back down. Yesterday, 35 min ellip, great workout at gym and sensible, healthy meals. Today, ellip and some chicken fried rice using cauliflower rice and lots of other veggies. New week, new enthusiasm.

Here we go again! Another 10 days. I love the accountability of this group and challenge, everyone is so motivating and supportive! Wouldn't be where I am without all you long term 10 dayers....looking forward to getting to know the new ones
SW - 182.4 - March 2017
original GW - was 145- met this target in October
new GW - 140
I was maintaining a 143ish average nicely up until Christmas and my crazy gift show season in January and things have crept up to about 145. It could be worse so I'm not stressing over it but I know I've lost some fitness over the last month and a half and want to get back in control of things. I will start back into my cardio and strength routine and daily calorie logging this round...I've been a bit slack as of late. I would like to get under 140 slowly over the next couple of months so I won't be to aggressive with my calorie deficit.
1/27 - 145.0 - coming in from round 29 with a rolling 7 day avg of 145.5
01/28 - 144.2 - feeling a bit run down this morning...will get out for a walk with the dog and some housework today...nice to see it under 145 though.
01/29 - 146.4 - Bleh!! Did not eat well yesterday and I can feel the bloat...back to tracking and logging today.
01/30 - 146.2 - took the dog for a 3.5km walk yesterday morning and did a full kettlebell work out after dinner...muscles are a bit tight today...
01/31 - 144.6 - knew this would be down...I was "flushing" the water weight what seemed like every half hour yesterday. Hit the elliptical and did an express kettlebell work out...going to take a break from the weights today and just bundle up and take the dog for a good walk this morning.
02/01 - 145.2 - Meh...a few too many carbs yesterday...
02/02 - 144.6 - back here, having a hard time with the evening snacking this week....need to plan better to make them fit in my targets.
02/03 - 144.0 - Yay! coming down! Have a kid home with a virus...madly keeping him contained to the cootie zone and cleaning so it doesn't spread to the rest of us but I did get a good 50 minutes in on the elliptical yesterday
02/04 - 143.0 - a small Whoosh! Just in time for TOM to arrive and bloat it back up again LOL...or maybe not...I can only hope.
02/05 - 145.0 - Hormone bloat...

2nd Round.
MFP SW 210
R29 SW 189.2 EW 186.6
Focused on making good choices for my overall health.
01/28 184.6 Thankful and curious about the sudden drop the last few days. My weight was slowly going down the last couple of weeks, and now BOOM, the loss shows up. I'll be looking for patterns over the next month. I'm thinking it was water retention during TOM.
01/29 184.2 I worked out hard since I knew I couldn't get to the gym today. (Walk/Run intervals and weight training) I'm expecting these losses to slow down any day now, but I'm hoping not to gain back.
01/30 184.4 Ate A LOT of carbs yesterday- gotta get my veggies in today! Feeling good physically and feeling great about making healthier choices consistently over the last month.
01/31 184.2
02/01 185.2 The end of the month is stressful because of work. Didn't eat enough yesterday, didn't work out, and didn't drink much water! Today will be a great day, though!!
02/02 183.6 Still didn't get in all my calories, but I got close. Headed to the gym. Today won't be so busy, so I should be able to get my water in. Cheers to the weekend!
02/03 185.0 No worries! Macros were way off because I indulged in Tequila and Mexican food (my favs). But I'm ecstatic about jogging 30 minutes straight for the first time in a long time, and I didn't break the calorie bank! “It doesn't get easier; you just get better at it.”
02/04 184.4 This week has been hectic, so I haven't been as diligent in food choices. But I'm feeling well- more energy, less unhealthy cravings, and I'm getting physically stronger. I'm planning to up all my weights next week and will be working on getting my macros on point.
02/05 183.8 I survived Superbowl LII!!

I'm starting a bit late but since I record my weight daily, I will catch up. I started my journey to a healthier life June 2017 when I was told I was pre-diabetic. So far I have lost 60 lbs and incorporated regular exercise into my day. So, here goes:

GW - 216 lbs (10% WL)
Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 - 227.4 lbs
01/29 - 226.6 lbs. It is becoming easier and easier each day to think of this as my new normal and not a diet.
01/30 - 227.2 lbs. ate my 1500 cal, sodium was at 1400 mg. Guessing it's because I woke up an hour earlier than normal?
01/31 - 227.0 lbs
02/01 - 226.6 lbs. Think my body is finally adjusting to waking up an hour earlier.
02/02 - 226.0 lbs. Arg. It was TOM that made me jump up (didn't even think about that possibility).
02/03 - 226.6 lbs I'm just all over the place this week.
02/04 - 225.4 lbs Hooray? Hoping tomorrow doesn't bring another jump up
02/05 - 225.6 lbs. A jump, but atleast not a bad one! I will take it.

@I tested out the gluten thing today. I definitely react to it and not in a good way at all. I really love my breads and this is going to be really hard.
I feel you on the gluten problem! I have been intolerant for 17 years and it was very hard for me to cut it out since I just love everything gluten. However, in the long run your body will love you if you try not to eat it. You can also try moderation and eating gluten bread every other day or so. I know I can get away with this without too much problems.2 -

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28: 120.5 lbs. yesterday was my cheat day. This is what the cheat day did to my hardworking: gained 1 lb.
01/29: 121.4 lbs. hmm... I have done so well last round. Then I started a cheat day on last Saturday. I only had moderate carbs, but the damage is big. So, cheat day won’t work? Here is from Mr. Google: Carbs break up keto Cheating Affects Your Fat Adaptation. Your body has to make changes, such as altering specific hormones and increasing enzyme production, to optimize conditions for burning fat as fuel on a ketogenic diet. Having cheat meals regularly can prevent your body from continuing this process long enough to stay in ketosis.
01/30: 120.3 lbs... try to get back to ketosis!
01/31: 119.8 lbs. Had one of the best Zumba class with a crazy dancer. Lol she inspired me to move fast, fast, and faster!
02/01: 120.5 lbs. don’t know why it went up. I did everything supposed to do: eating right, went to gym! Frustrated! However, I did dry January!
02/02: 120.5 lbs. No progress no matter how hate I try. What’s wrong??
02/03: 120.3 lbs. bought ketone strip. I am at moderate level. I need to just keep going. Last night ketone was moderate and this morning is a trace.
02/04: 119.9 lbs. slowly!
02/05: 118.9 lbs. I didn't do anything differently. Try to stick with keto meal, and try to ignore the scale.

Also question for everyone, I am being lame sorry.. what is TOM?xx
Thanks. Hubby is getting better, just needs some time to heal. I’m staying home to make sure he doesn’t overdo it.
TOM is time of month for having your period.

This group challenge has really been helping me through the fluctuations. I had a really bad tendency to get frustrated and think that I'll never get there. Definitely getting stronger so the slow pace is expected. But I have been a bit lazy on my diet. If I want this I'm the only one who can do it for me.
Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 - 187.6 - Ordering some new clothes to replace worn ones. Hopefully that'll be inspiring.
01/29 - 187.6 - Holding. Though morale is good. Temps are back up and my Tshirts I haven't been wearing are fitting nicer.
01/30 - 187.2 - Training yesterday. Going to climb up our mini mountain today.
01/31 - 187.6 - Mountain did not go, met a friend for lunch instead. Training today.
02/01 - 187.2 - Training was cancelled so I did our mini mountain walk yesterday. Nice weather for it.
02/02 - 188 - Huh, weird. Did the mountain walk again yesterday. Going out tonight.
02/03 - 188.2 - Training and heavy eating yesterday. Digestion feeling slow. Probably should drink more water.
02/04 - 187.8 - At least we're going in the right direction.
02/05 - 186.2 - That's a new low.

@bradcharlessimmons sounds like you had an awesome weekend. Do you usually count calories? Once I get down to the weight I want, I'm planning to start adding beer back to my diet. Then again it may just be liquors, we'll have to see.
I did have an awesome weekend thanks! Yes, I'm a big advocate of counting calories however it's unrealistic to be 100% accurate all of the time. Beer wise I always remember the average pint of lager is around 200 kcal, so I can usually build it into my weekends if I opt for a smaller lunch or some heavy cardio or move to gin and diet tonic (50kcal max, usually). Being a student a couple of years ago I could sink up to 24 pints in a sitting (big sesh I know) but looking back; that is horrendous, calorific and damaging to my liver.
Congrats on the loss so far this round by the way, how are you finding the fasting?2 -

@quiltingjaine You have so many tips! Thanks! My recent issue I'm sure stems from emotional/hormonal imbalance. From being worried about not having a job, and then my husbands grandmother passing away last week. Its been stressful for me, and I ran to processed carbs. Now that I know I will be employed, I'm feeling very empowered to kick this into HIGH keto! Fat will keep me satisfied! Yes, I have made fat bombs. They are awesome little things. Sunday went very well, I'm going to keep it a going!.1 -

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 142.7 (over on sodium- Mexican restaurant- estimated logging- 60 min. elliptical- ate back all or more)
01/29 141.4 (30 min elliptical, ate back all calories)
01/30 141.2 (11 min elliptical; Body Pump Class: ate back all calories)
01/31 142.9 (60 min elliptical; under calorie goal; higher sodium day, but not over)
02/01 143.2 (Body Pump Class; over by 20 calories-1220 net- slightly over on sodium- maybe TOM weight too?)
02/02 143.9 (50 min elliptical; at back most calories-weight gain is frustrating when in deficit- probably TOM)
02/03 143.1 (50 min elliptical; ate back all calories; still no TOM, but probably why weight jumped up this week)
02/04 144.5 (35 min elliptical; WAY over calories-like over 1000 over- TOM-gave in to serious cravings)
02/05 148.1 no exercise; no tracking; ate alot. So after about a month of almost daily exercise and netting 1200 calories my weight can go up by so much and so quickly. So do I have to net 1200 for life to not gain? Frustrated. I know it's water retention mostly, but I want to eat what I want ONCE IN A WHILE without worry. Twice now I've had weight swings of 7 pounds within the same 10 day challenge. Do I need a low sodium diet?

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 139.8lb absolutely stuffed myself on salty foods last night
01/29 138.2 had no appetite yesterday, was very busy. Weight sure to bounce back up again. As long as it’s not in the 140’s!
01/30 137.2 this is a nice surprise! Practiced last night, Sunday night we went out dancing for a couple hours.
01/31 137.8 got in yoga, a run, and some dancing yesterday but also ate a lot, including more salt and sugar than i should.
02/01 138 salt, why can’t I quit you? Going to dinner and a musical in another city tonight, so lots of sitting and sure to exceed food limits.
02/02 137.2 Early appointments this morning, then worked out with a fitness specialist, ran despite the weather, and practiced yoga for an hour. Was feeling great until I fainted and hit my head super hard. Should have drank more water before all the activity!
02/03 ?? honestly I forget my weight because never had time to record it. Went straight from work to ER where my husband was waiting for emergency appendectomy. Thank God he’s OK!
02/04 135.8 not a real loss: didn’t eat or drink yesterday in the ER. Hubby back home and recovering but we haven’t had hardly any sleep. Not exercising yet- I’m still sore from my fall. Oh the bumps and bruises
