changed my mind. I am not having Bday burger night. Its a total splurge night at the brazilian steak buffet.

This is my second round. I started with round 35 and skipped one. I found that I gained weight back for the round i skipped so im back at it again.

day/Weight/Comment

4/8 139.7 I'm super happy I finally broke 140 this morning. I'm enjoying my fasting routine but slipped up with self control a couple of days last week. Today I get to eat from 10 am to 8 pm. Then I'll start another fasting phase. I'm starting to see some weight loss changes in my body.
4/9 141.9 I ate a lot of carbs yesterday so I'm not surprised to see this gain. Have to be better about watching what I eat today. I can only have lunch and dinner today. Lunch is 450 cal so I can have somewhat of a decent dinner later and still be under my calorie limit today.

4/9 190 Eating right and loads of intentional activity has me back in right direction

"Our greatest glory is, not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." - Oliver Goldsmith

Round 37 = Goal = Maintain 125-130. Going on a significant trip 4/12-4/24, away from scale and kitchen and kitchen scale and likely, some of the time, internet. Will be an emotional trip too, I can guarantee. So just hoping and praying I can be sensible, in every way, not just about food.

4/8 - 127.2 - under maintenance yesterday and 10K steps. Have not done any regular exercise in a week apart from some walking-grade aerobics.

4/9 - 127.0 - yesterday high on emo and calories, low on steps, and a new low weight today. Maybe excess cortisol burns calories my fitbit can't detect. JK, I know this is just a bounce waiting to happen.

I'm back. Took a few rounds off because weighing everyday and not seeing the scale move as fast as I thought it should was affecting me mentally. I know that the scale lies, but it was hard to not see the scale move at the rate I thought it should. Regardless of the scale my clothes are fitting looser and I'm getting stronger, so I am doing good.

Day/Weight/Comment

4/8- 131.8- lowest I've weighed in in a while! Ran 8 miles, helped in-laws move, and did yard work, so it was a super active day. Meal prepped a smoked salmon quiche for my lunches this week.

4/9- 132.4- not surprised to see this fluctuation despite a healthy, active weekend... it's water-retaining time of the month for me, so I'll be carrying a little extra around until about Saturday

This is Round 10 for me. I had a rough end of Round 9, but there are things to look forward to. I'm officially going to start a keto WOE on Monday, 4/16, and I'm going to work on cutting down my carbs significantly before then (to get myself in the mood).

Day/Weight/Comment

4/8 = 207.0 (-0.4). Played basketball yesterday, but had parents over and took them out to dinner to my favorite Mexican place. At least weight is heading in the proper direction.

4/9 = 205.4 (-1.6). BOUNCE BACK™. I had a good day eating yesterday, topped off by my favorite salad from a relatively healthy restaurant. Went grocery shopping for the week and tried to look around for some easy ready-made stuff that will work in a pinch when I start keto next week, and was able to find a couple of things (which was nice). My wife and I started our SL 5x5 last night, and I only wanted to spank her once or twice as she argued with me regarding a program I have done extensive research on (and that she knows NOTHING about). We got through it. I'm really happy to see my weight headed back down relatively quickly. As much as I know big spikes in weight are very temporary (as long as I'm being accountable and generally staying the course), it still sometimes feels traumatizing to see them. I'm going to begin to cut down on my carbs and stay away from all sweets this week (except my birthday on Saturday) in preparation for my new lifestyle.

Goal Weight: 115 lbs - Met in late 2017

I met my goal weight in late 2017. I've been ranging around 109-112 lbs since January. My new goal now is to get down to 24 inch waist & 19% body fat. I'm currently at 25.75 inch waist & 20.2% body fat. I'll work towards this by continually increasing my strength training goals every month. I would love to have ripped abs & tank-top triceps by summer.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

4/8 138.5
4/9 138.0 Water fitness this morning and I am going to begin to clean my sewing room. I have been in a funk and there is not a surface that isn’t buried! The daybed is covered with clothes that were a little small when I bought them last summer. They will either fit now or be too big! When I hit this weight last week, did I say I hadn’t visited this number since 2011? 10 days til HS reunion!
