Day/Weight/Comment

•5/18 - 200.2 -slight uptick in weight this morning. Restless night and my buddy is back, fluid retention. I already need a nap.
•5/19 - 199.8 - That .8 still hanging on
•5/20 - 199.2 - I probably weigh a little bit under this number, but I drank water before stepping on the scale. My husband and I went to his Aunt's surprise 80th birthday celebration yesterday evening. It was after 5 pm when we got there. I eat my first meal at 2 or 3 so I wasn't hungry. Had no desire for cake or the godiva chocolate bars given out as favors. I gave mine to my DIL. I sipped on my lemon water and thoroughly enjoyed seeing and talking with family members that I haven't seen in years.
•5/21 - 199.6 -I can't blame the increase on sodium, because on keto you need sodium. I think I can pin it to electrolyte imbalance, specifically magnesium. I had cramping in my calf muscle down through my foot last night. It woke me up and I had to walk it out. I haven't had my electrolyte water for over a week. I'll be drinking it today though.
•5/22 - 200 - I weighed at 5 am, holding on to a ton of water. I usually weigh at 10am. We had a joyous family occasion to celebrate this past Sunday, but today is a somber occasion. My BIL passed last week and today is his funeral.
•5/23 - 199.6 (8am)- 200.8 (6am) - This is how much fluid I retain. That's 1.2lbs! and still holding fluid, but I couldn't wait until 10am to weigh, I needed to drink some water. 6 TBS of peanut butter later...smh. I was so tired yesterday. Feeling much better after some uninterrupted hours of sleep.

•5/24 - 199.2 - I didn't even think to weigh myself before having coffee. This morning was just off routine.

5/18 traveling, no scale. Being mindful and logging

5/19 140# different scale for 2.5 weeks. Nothing I can do, so I am ok with that, as this is my starting point here. Stay on point!
5/20 138.1# Logging regularly (even using the scanning bar, makes life much easier). And now off to run. Happy Sunday all!
5/21 138.7# Hopefully I will see a downward trend this round. I am trying...
5/22 138.9# Nope, wrong direction

5/23 138.4# Better than I expected. I felt like I ate too much (and logged it all), but did a whole lot of exercise/steps
5/24 139.3# UGH! It's got to get better. My 5 mile run is done...that's a good start

I figured I'd be up after a weekend visiting family. My hands are visibly swollen from water retention too. I feel like crap. I'm going to work on eating better, feeling better, and getting back to my exercise routine this week and see if I can recover from this weekend.

Had a good run last night, and drank lots of water all day. Im going to keep it up. I would love to be back to where I started by the end of this challenge, but Id be happy if I at least continue to head in the right direction.

I'm happy with this. I hope it sticks. I am continuing to drink more water and track everything. Not to bad considering we have family in town.

@puttyputty & @cjsacto Thank you. He was feeling much better. (Cortico)Steroids can be wonderful things. He even went to play pinochle in the afternoon. However, this morning he is not. Called doc and waiting for callback.

@curvyycaloriess WW frowns on daily weighing for this reason, weight loss is not linear. But really, who is to say this isn’t your high day and tomorrow might be your low? Everyone has daily fluctuations often followed by a “whoosh.” It is helpful to learn the pattern of your body’s cycle. Today you may be retaining more water, tomorrow you may have a larger drop. Ladies, in particular, have hormone issues that can wreak havoc. Our bodies are strange things and we cannot always control what they do.

@sindeloho Calories aren’t all that matter. Sometimes I’m not sure they matter at all!

@puddlegoober Don’t forget that cortisol, the stress hormone, affects weight also!

@NormaV14 It took me 4 months to bounce down through the 140’s and now I may be doing the same through the 130’s. Hang in there! We’ve got this!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

5/18 138.5 Well not surprised. Yesterday was our 48th wedding anniversary and my 10 month Ketoversary. Down 30# We attended a dinner party last night and there was sugar in everything - at least that was the way it felt/tasted. My ketones are low (0.5) but still present.
5/19 138.5 Lovely grilled dinner at Red Lobster. Ate my little lobster tail, a few shrimp, and two bites of salmon. Also salad with blue cheese dressing and 3/4 of a cheddar biscuit. Those biscuits no longer taste good to me. Strawberries and whipped cream for dessert when we got home. Breakfast with lady friends at 8 AM today. Have I mentioned lately that I am not a breakfast person?

I ate about 1/4 of my omelet which was relatively tasteless in spite of Monterrey Jack cheese and lots of green chilies.
5/20 139.0 WTH??? I suspect there were hidden carbs in that omelet causing me to retain water because I really didn’t overeat. Also was way below on water. UGH!
5/21 138.0 When I pointed out to DH this morning that I had brought home breakfast potatoes on Saturday he said “we don’t eat those anymore.” Whoo hoo, he is coming to a more Keto WOE!
5/22 138.0 My stomach is upset. Blech!!!
5/23 137.5 Brought DH to urgent care. Breathing treatment and steroids.
5/24 138.5 Salt? I had left over Keto chili at about 11 and 1/2 of a Greek Salad with gyro meat for dinner. Maybe it was the 1/4 of a pita bread. Moving on!

Round 41 GOAL = Stay under Maintenance calories on average for the 10 days and run three times.

5/18 - 128.2 - Taking this new challenge seriously. Log food every day, I have been falling down on that.
5/19 - 128.6 - logged food and under maintenance, 10K steps. By logging, I got to see that the ratio of snacks to real food was SHOCKING. So, good information!! Admittedly, temptations showed up, but.
5/20 -130.2 - sadness for my own mess-ups, and resolve. Anxiety and comforting myself with food. Way over yesterday on calories, under on exercise. Rising every time I fall....
5/21 - 128.6 - yesterday under calories, ate only a 200 calorie "treat" protein bar in the sugar dept, 11K steps. One day at a time.
5/22 - 128.0 - yesterday under calories, 13K steps including elliptical at the gym and short runs to and fro.
5/23 - 128.4 - yesterday over calories, 10K steps; a day where I woke at 3:45 and never slept after that. Using sugar to deal with anxiety, but still not my worst day. Back at it.

5/24 - 129.8 - yesterday within calories, 14K steps including a 50 minute run.

R36 EW: 212.2 ✖️
R39 EW: 210.2 ✔️ Goal
R40 EW: 206.9 ✔️ Goal

Goal: Release 2 lbs per round. I won't reach my goal of onederland by Memorial Day weekend with this goal, but I'd rather reach it late than never!
Ultimate Goal: 175 lbs, reevaluate at that point

May:
18: 205.5... Somehow, I managed to miss up my days and thought today was the end of R40 rather than the first day of this round. Oops. This is a great start to R41 though!
19: 203.9... Wow is the only word I have right now. Charging through to onederland!
20: 203.4...I feel like my morning Matcha is helping this process more than I expected. I started drinking it because it tastes good and looked into the health benefits after. Now I'm bulletproofing it, which is even better. Some days I have to "make" myself eat more before I go into fasting hours because I hadn't been hungry enough to get to 1400 calories. Dark chocolate with coconut oil is my new savior on those days and my new favorite sweet when I otherwise would have eaten something loaded with carbs.
21: 203
22: 203.3... I'm guessing this is just normal fluctuation. No worries here!
23: 202.2... I started using Prime My Body Hemp oil about a week ago for overall health. Due to this rapid loss, I decided yesterday to research if CBD oil promotes weight loss. Sure enough, it does! I guess the combo I'm doing now with Bulletproof Matcha, CBD, IF and HFLC is perfect for me! At this rate, maybe I will hit onederland sooner than I anticipated!
24: 201.8... We had a potluck for my daughter's soccer team last night. I didn't log anything, but it looks like I did a good job eating intuitively. I leave for Denver tomorrow, so I won't be weighing in Saturday through Tuesday. I'm planning to keep on point with my food and water. I'd love to come home and see another drop on the scale, but I'll be happy if a can just maintain where I'm at. I won't have my Bulletproof Matcha, but I can easily bring some help oil along and stick to my IF schedule. I imagine I'll be getting lots of movement in too, so that'll help.

5/20 170.4 Totally building muscle and feeling leaner; however, & I STILL have to keep reminding myself that my goal is now losing 2 lbs a month instead of 4. I find myself worrying that I won’t, but I think - with time - I will fret less. The trending app helps. My 10-day moving average is down 2.1 lbs in 20 days. Last month, I was down 5.3 lbs in 30 days. Slowly, I will adjust. Quite the mind shift.
5/21 170.0 I’m glad I purposely have slowed down my weight loss. It’s funny that it feels as though I’m gaining - when I’m not. I can see this will take some time, but I’m hopeful.
5/22 170.0 I think maybe I’m getting the hang of this

trend line is now 2.2 lbs in 22 days - very helpful. Great workout yesterday! Losing inches (glad I took measurements in Hanuary & March) with definitely leaner look through waist (in the morning before my large breakfast LOL) & arms & shoulders feel much stronger. All part of this journey.

5/23 170.8 All is good - muscles hanging on to water... with my increased intensity of exercise. Along with 4 new temporary meds for a month.
My weight is Still down > than 2 lbs in the last 30 days, which is my goal, easing into maintenance.

I wasn’t hungry last night, but ate my dinner because my brain can play tricks on me sometimes and lets me get TOO hungry if I don’t eat. Intuitive eating sounds SO tempting, but in my heart, I know the routine of meals will insure my success longterm. (Talking to myself here)

5/24 171.2 I’m centered again. Won’t let myself get over busy and stressed like the last two days again! I LEARNED a lot. Grateful for all of you. Ever onwards!!!

Note to self: FOCUS on Building Muscle!!)
Apple Watch Energy - 1900 > 0 daily
Daily walks - easy does it!
Give resistance & weight training 3X/week your all.

Remember: Your new “Skinny” pants are now loose, arms look much better, legs/butt more toned/better shape, and your waist is better defined with abs right below the skin! Who knew?!?!!! Celebrate! These are your rewards now - not the scale. Give yourself time to adjust to this New Reality.

I did celebrate - bought a gorgeous dress, hip jacket, & cute sweater for some events coming up. My first new clothes - except for 3 prs of jeans - in over a year & my first “thin” clothes!! I’m only getting a small, new wardrobe of items that fit close & that I LOVE! Fun, and a little intimidating, to decide on style/look now that I have more options. But it’s a nice problem to have once I reminded myself that I could take my time!
