6/07 - 170.6 - +2.2 from 06/06, restaurant dinner last night & no gym
6/08 - 170.6 - no loss from yesterday but today’s my weekly weigh in and I’m down 1.4 from last week!
6/09 - traveling - couldn’t weigh but I know it’ll be a gain because of all the food last night. Was worth it tho! Will just have a good week to make up for it
6/10 - 172.0 - operation “make up for the weekend” has officially started
6/11 - 172.4 - I have a feeling it’s going to be one of those weeks where I eat within deficit and workout but the scale number goes up. Happens every couple weeks for me
6/12 - 170.8 - finally headed back in the right direction!
6/13 - 169.4 - worked really hard on my deficit and exercise yesterday and glad to see it shown in the scale!
6/14 - 171.6 - no explanation for this. Yesterday was a decent calorie day and a really good exercise one. Who knows...

Just Give Me 10 Days
Hello! Joining in late. Please don’t flay me if I’m breaking some kind of unspoken rule. I weigh myself everyday but don’t log it because I think I’ll jinx myself. I usually log loss once it stays under for a few days. This might be a great way for me to document my weight every day.
5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again and then some.
Round 43 (My Round 1)
Round Goal: Familiarize self with challenge format. Overall downward trend.

6/07- Entered round late.
6/08- Entered round late.
6/09- Entered round late.
6/10- 240.4 Proud of myself for exhibiting self control yesterday. Had to go to a Chinese buffet for a lunch thing. I made better food choices, did not over-eat, and stayed under my calorie budget for the day.
6/11- 239.8 Woohoo! Still cautiously optimistic as I’m still waiting for that initial massive loss to steady out. 10lbs in 2 weeks seems too good to be true. Does anyone know if that initially loss comes back a little? Did good yesterday food wise.
6/12- 239.2 Pizza was provided at lunch meeting. I walked away and ate my tuna instead. I did go back and ate the toppings off a slice of the chicken and veggies. Still a win, I think. I was just under calories goal today but felt hungry. Need to eat more protein.
6/13- 238! <insert Austin Powers voice>. Yea Baby! Trucking along nicely. Under calories yesterday but did not feel hugger. Onwards and downwards!
6/14- 238. Womp womp. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed after logging such a nice loss yesterday. Trying to stay positive and remember that at least it maintained but it’s difficult. Going to work hard to not let it get to my head. Was well within my calories and hit my protein goal yesterday. Possible reason for maintaining is that I may be PMSing. Light cramps yesterday and this morning. AF may be finally returning after last baby in January.

We went out for lunch yesterday (Mexican, but I had grilled chicken and rice with veggies), so although I stayed pretty much within calorie bounds, I'm sure my sodium was higher than usual. I spent a good hour digging and planting flowers in my garden.
6/08 - 149.8 - 1245 - 10-day ave 1421.4
OK, scale, I'm ready for a little drop if you don't mind. I'm keeping calories low, macros good, and I'm exercising, so come on, your turn.
6/9 - 149.8 - 1433 - 10-day ave 1435.5
Sigh. I really thought I'd see a little more movement here. My total calories are right at my estimated TDEE (maintenance), but I'm burning a reasonable number each day. Or I thought I was. I guess I'll keep doing what I'm doing through the end of this round and see if there's any progress. If not, I'll look for a way to shake things up. It's pouring rain this morning, with lightning, so no walk, but I'll find something else.... Lunch with a friend, but I'll stick to good stuff. Have a lovely weekend, all!
6/10 - 149.6 - 1442 - 10-day ave 1448.9
Finally, a baby step in the right direction. I find these numbers & averages fascinating. There's still one high-calorie day in my 10-day set of numbers - it will be there for 2 more days. Without it, by average would be about 40 calories lower. I'll be interested to see what happens when I hit the lower averages (assuming I don't splurge again any time soon!). I do eat what I want - pizza for lunch yesterday with a friend - but still keep my daily total within bounds and that seems to make the difference. Anyway, if you find yourself frustrated with the daily ups & downs, try averaging, either yourself or using one of the apps that calculate running averages of weights entered.
6/11 - 150 - 1374 - 10-day ave 1456.6 (7-day ave 1421)
I'm officially frustrated. Phooey.
6/12 - 150 - 1325 - 10-day ave 1447.7 (7-day ave 1427)
Okay, whatever. I just reset my calories goal 90 lower than before. I'm not all that happy to be that low, although it's not much below my estimated TDEE, but will see what happens. I should be back to truly regular exercise by next week and will add back some calories then.
6/13 - 149.8 - 1345 - 10-day ave 1400 (7-day ave 1384)
Back again to what seems to be my body's favorite weight. But we're gonna break through it this time! Our days of rain seem to be over for a while, so I should be able to get at least one, maybe two walks in. A year ago I was walking 2-3 hours/day and losing on 1800 calories. I need to get back to that regime! (Have I said before that moving & being "in transition" for 4 months sucks?) Again, thanks for the inspiration - I read your comments and see that I have no excuse for not getting my exercise in!

•6/7 -196.6 - Oh yeah. My tag-a-long friend.
•6/8 - 196.2 - My actual weight and this water retention is so funny to me. I guess I will see 195.6 again or less by the end of the 10 days. That seems to be the trend.
•6/9 - I weighed in at 198 very early this morning. No opportunity to weigh at my usual time. The increase was surely due to the fact that I took 20ozs of water filled with electrolytes to bed with me. I needed it. It was a hot day yesterday. Ran errands until late afternoon and cooked all evening. My granddaughter, 4, and grandson, 18 mos, were with me today. Five hours of coloring, painting, sticker activities, reading, music and nursery rhyme videos, climbing on me and lap sitting. I'm tired now. I had to rely on my peanut butter as my mid-day meal. I NEVER get to eat an actual meal when they are visiting. I'm feeding them all day though. My water intake is on the low side too. Why? I give those little rascals water, but they drink mine. Smh. I guess mine tastes better to them. Can't wait for the next visit.
•6/10 - 199.2 - Not alarmed by this weigh in. I just didn't weigh before consuming 16 ozs of water and 2 large mugs of coffee.
•6/11 - 195.2
•6/12 - 195.6 - Early weigh in
•6/13 - 196 - Early start, early weigh in and coffee. No water yet! Very unlike me. My routine will have slight disruptions the rest of the week due to Grands being sick daycare closing early, daycare graduation
•6/14 - 196.2 - Early weigh in - Despite the late start on my water consumption yesterday, I managed 136 ozs of fluid, 64 ozs of it water. I'm tired this morning, legs feel heavy, but no time for that, the Grands will be here shortly.

6/07 - Thursday - 198.4 - Nice! Last night was crazy busy, still ate well. Packed and ready to leave from work! I am committed to being present in the moment while away, but also plan to keep up my habit and log in to MFP each day. No scales. Aim to maintain while still enjoying!
6/08 - Friday - Traveling - ate at maintenance today! And yesterday. Aiming to do the same tomorrow and Sunday!
6/09 - Saturday - Traveling - another day at maintenance!
6/10 - Sunday - Traveling - Ate at maintenance again!
6/11 - Monday - 199.8 - Holy moly I cannot believe this! Perhaps I'm a bit dehydrated after traveling? Although I usually retain water after a flight. I had a lovely vacation with my family - it was not entirely centered around food but I certainly enjoyed myself eating instead of stressing about every bite. It was so nice to get away from it all. It was also fun to enjoy things this weekend and not feel bad about it. I'm not on a diet this time around - it's a lifestyle change. So I'm not stressing about "cheating" or having a few not so perfect days. Life is for living and I did a lot of that this weekend! The food I ate fueled me to wake up and watch the sunrise on the beach. It fueled me to swim and play in the ocean for hours. It was food I shared with loved one's. It was food that made me smile. I thought I might go home with a few extra pounds of weight, but it seems I have found the right balance and I get to come home with a few hundred memories, a heart full of love, and gratitude for the things my body allows me to do.
6/12 - Tuesday - 201.2 - Yesterday was tough - I was so tired, and I don't do well with anything when tired. I made it to the grocery store - avoided the chips in the check out line - but ate 2 slices of deli meat when I got home. Cooked and ate dinner, ate some ice cream, ate some chips, ate some more ice cream. Oi. That hasnt happened in a while but between the indulgences over the weekend and the lack of sleep I got a bit out of control. Logged it and I'm moving on! Back to my usuals today - smoothie, leftovers for lunch, popcorn for a snack, and meats thawing for dinner tonight. Lots of water to flush out ALL this sodium I've consumed over the past 5 days, expecting the gain to stick around a few days but hopeful to be back in onderland by rounds end!
6/13 - Wednesday - 200.6 - Ate within calories yesterday! Lots of water and fresh air really helped. I also did a little research on lack of sleep and weight. Turns out not getting enough sleep does indeed cause hormonal shifts that make you hungrier, and hungrier for fatty foods. So, I got to bed early again and I'm ready to crush another day! Got my smoothie, wrap with chips (portioned out) for lunch, and an extra scoop of protein powder for a snack because my protein goals have been falling short lately. Visualizing the scale being in the 100's by Saturday. Visualization helps me with a lot of things - I used to drive crazy distances and I'd visualize myself getting home at the end of it and it really helped me through those drives, so I kept it as a tool, and I'm going to try applying it here. Visualizing myself strong, fit, healthy, and happy!
6/14 - Thursday - 199.6 - Got some lab test results yesterday. Triglycerides were sky high. I was so dissapointed for a moment. But instead of wallowing, I did my research, got some fish oil, and worked doctors orders of 2 doses/day into my regular routine. A teaspoon in my morning smoothie, and a teaspoon in the evening after dinner. It's scary to see the numbers like that in black and white. That's why I'm doing this though - to gain knowledge and improve my health! Also started taking vitamin b complex last night because my bilirubin was also slightly elevated - my body is telling me that it might be due to vitamin b deficiency from metformin use. Now the hard part - to maintain these habits! Eating was good yesterday - stayed within calories even though I was "hungry" right before bed I resisted. Smoothie, packed lunch, snacks, and planned dinner is all prelogged today. Havent done that before but I was stressing about food yesterday so it felt good to commit to a plan and be done thinking about it. Lots of water again today. Im visualizing the scale at 197.6 - not specifically for the end of this round, it will be a 15 lb loss so that is what I'm working towards currently.

6/7 / 232 / Not a shocker given that I was up at 4 am to get on a train.
6/8 / 231 / Back to a more normal weigh in time. Yesterday was mostly train rides, though I did get walking in. High sodium and not enough water, so I'm pleased to be at 231. Woke up with a killer headache. I don't know if it's sinus or lack of caffeine (I've been trying to cut back). I started today with a big breakfast, so we'll see how my calories shake out.
6/9 / 230.6 / Sinus headache again (I'm pretty sure it's sinus).
6/10 / 230.4 / Slowly creeping down. And headache AGAIN. I've gone a tiny bit over calories the past couple of days. I've been eating bigger breakfasts than normal for me, and it's not a winning strategy. It's not enough to cause me to gain. It will just slow my loss. But today, I'm getting that back down to my normal. I've abandoned giving up caffeine right now.
6/11 / 231.4 / Bah.
6/12 / 230.4 / All day on the 11th in jury duty. Very under calories, though even more under on any hydration until late.
6/13 / 232 / I've got some digestive things going on that are no fun. I'm doing well, calorie-wise, so I'm not worried about this weigh in. I keep missing my exercise goal, though.
6/14 / 231.6 / Eating well. Got my exercise in. Tummy troubles continue to plague me.

6/07--176.4 Yes!!! Happy to see some movement to start off the round! Had a good day yesterday; didn't snack throughout the day and ended up only a few calories over my goal.
6/08--176.2 Two days in a row is beautiful! I am determined to make this last the whole round! No snacking yesterday but I did overeat Ben and Jerry's non-dairy ice cream last night. Even so, only a few calories over my goal.
6/09--176.4 Three days in a row at 176, haven't seen that in four years! Pilates this morning and hopefully working on some projects around the house this weekend. I tend to do better, food-wise, on the weekends.
6/10--175.8 Could it be??? I was active yesterday. My diet was on point. I earned this!
6/11--176.4 It was fun while it lasted
6/12--176.4 Way over my calories yesterday but just over maintenance, so I think it will be okay. I hope! Headed out of town today for a concert so it will be two days of being in the car and eating out.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07 – 181.8: Miniscule drop, but I’LL TAKE IT!!! Ate well and didn’t eat back exercise calories. Really psyched for my Round 2. Thinking I’ll do another Booster Weekend. I didn’t do all the exercise I wanted last weekend, but the thought of my personal mini challenge kept me focused on eating well.
6/08 – 181.8: Same, and it’s ok. Did no workout yesterday and ate within calories but late. Planning how to stay on point this weekend with eating and exercise. Really want the downward creep to continue each day.
6/09 – 182.8: HUH??? This hurts my feelings because I ate within calories yesterday. Fine, I didn’t formally exercise, other than 45 minutes of housework, but seriously… a whole pound up??? This is too early in my journey for this. This is when I start to waiver, I NEED to go down please..
6/10 – 181.8: Back to starting weight at the beginning of this round. Grateful for this.
6/11 – 181.0: Late weigh in. Pleasant surprise since I had a Twizzlers attack last night. And not just the ordinary Twizzlers – the ones stuffed with creamy icing. I still managed to stay within calories, but way over on sugar and carbs. Gonna drink lots and lots of water today to flush it out.
6//12 – 181.0: Same. Below calories yesterday and one-hour walk. Would love to start running soon, but it’s been so long and I’m a bit nervous of injury. I really don’t want anything to stall my exercise, so I’ll take it slow, build strength and try a bit later. Hoping for a drop tomorrow.--
6/13 – 181.8: Hmmm. Trying not to overreact to this yoyo week. Last night, sweet cravings took over and I blew it. Note to self: next time DH calls to say “would you like anything [read junk food] from the grocery store” say NO!!! Twizzlers (again) and Sweet and Heat popcorn. My unevolved lizard brain is in control of my eating. I also jinxed myself and injured my knee on my walk yesterday. Yes, this is how far gone I am … I injured myself WALKING.
6/14 – 181.8: Well now! I want to be indignant because I ate within calories, but here is the lesson I learned today: weight loss is NOT just the result of calories in and calories out. It is the quality of calories in that makes the difference. For almost 95 per cent of the time, I am within calories. However, I regularly eat candy and chips in single servings so that I remain within my calorie limit, but it shows poorly on the scale. So, the scientific equation for me must be clean calories in, calories out. Doesn’t look like I’ll make my round goal weight of 179 or even close to it this time, but hey … I learned an important lesson, right???

6/08 166.8 Had a tough PM last night and overindulged in carbs, surprising that it didn't show up on the scale but I am grateful. I will get some exercise today for sure and hopefully get rid of the bloat!
6/09 166.6 I succumbed again last night to sweets after dinner, going over my calorie budget again. My husband is out of town and I feel like this is my "excuse" or the cause of my lack of motivation in the evening. I am surprised yet again that it didn't show up on the scale, but I will not push my luck for a third day in a row. I started the day both days really great, its just the 8 pm and later that has me struggling. Or not really struggling, just kind of saying what the heck, and going for it. Today is a new day. I can't change the past only move forward.
6/10 166.6 3rd night in a row where I overindulged.
6/11 166.6 so incredibly grateful to read everyone's challenges so similar to mine. It is hard sometimes to remember that it is a journey, a process, to enjoy the ride and not be so hard on myself. I had a really great day yesterday, a little over my calorie allowance, but I feel really good this morning because I made good choices. Today is going to be a great day!
6/12 166.8 I am actually super ok with this small gain, knowing that weighing myself daily will not be the best indicator of long term success. I was on plan and have already mapped out my meal plan for tomorrow. NSV-Maintained my calm all day in spite of outside forces attempting to lure me into stress. Eating on plan with one small exception of a bite of a cinnamon roll. I did indulge in 2 fiber one bars which I need to limit to 1 max a day tomorrow.
6/13 165.8 So stoked to be down a pound today, yesterday I had a really good day. I tried something different with my eating, upping the protein to 120 calories by including egg whites, tilapia or chicken breast at every meal. This also helped me stay satisfied and away from extra snacking. It was more protein than I am used to but unless this was fluke my body seems to like it. I will be doing the same today and hope to maintain that loss.

6/159 -
Age 60, 5'4.5" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me. Changed MFP setting 5/5/18 [R39] to 1/2# per week loss ~ within 10# of UGW, weight loss had stalled 3 months + was feeling hungry more often.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145 / no goal dates ~ I get there when I get there
Thrilled with my 2/15/18 annual physical: BP 110/68, pulse 64 and BMI 26.14
Ecstatic with my 5/15/18 annual workplace Health Risk Assessment: waist smallest since 2007 and BMI 25.6
My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.

Round 43/Round 1 for me
SW: 152.7
UGW: 125
RGW: 130/135
Weekly goal: lose one pound, exercise 6 days a week a minimum of 30 minutes. Minimum 30 minutes cardio daily.
6/10: 152.7 - humbling moment after not weighing myself for two years
6/11: 151.5 - in an ironic twist of fate I ate lots of "naughty food yesterday but kept portions in check and lost a pound. Got in lots of exercise so that helped I suppose. Getting back in the swing of logging everything. Today's goal is to continue to log and up my protein intake -- trying to balance macros better.
6/12: 151.7 - kinda what I expected. No exercise yesterday, too much salt in my diet yesterday, three days till estimated TOM start day, whole lot of insomnia last night. Suffering from really bad allergies, headache and asthma, smoke in the air from wildfires and I don't feel like doing a darn thing. Today I'm focusing on gallons of water!
6/13: 152.6 - back to where I started, ugh. PMS, bloat, emotional eating last night and no exercise the last two days. Zero motivation. Trying to not beat myself up and instead treat myself gently and get curious about why I feel so stuck and unmotivated and frankly, depressed. Trusting it's just the standard PMS hormones that will hopefully resolve on Friday or Saturday.
6/14: 151.5 - A little drop despite mild cramps, bloating and PMS. Got myself moving yesterday with Herculean effort and the encouragement I got from reading everyone's posts. Stayed consistent with calories but too many carbs! Guess the gallons of water I ingested yesterday worked a bit.

]I'm fully back on Keto, and it kinda feels like I never left. I haven't had an official weigh-in below 190, but I have seen it on my scale, and I'm really excited. The end of last round was fantastic (~5lbs in 3 days), and it looks like it "stuck." Going on vacation next Tuesday for 1 week (and with my in-law side of the family... 10 people... in a van), and I'm really happy that I got back on Keto before this. It's just not THAT hard to maintain, and it gives me an extra reason (for them) to stay away from things I've always wanted to stay away from.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07 = 190.4 (+0.2), BF% = 15.3 (no change). I'm really happy to see this number, as I was not fully convinced that yesterday's weigh-in was accurate. I snacked a bit much yesterday, which led to me eating at about maintenance. I'm feeling super-positive right now. I have basketball and the weightlifting tonight. I think I'm eventually going to alternate my weightlifting and basketball days; I'm not sure it will make a difference health/fitness-wise, but it should improve the likelihood that I get my weightlifting in. At this point, when I have to sacrifice something (because of time), I just do legs at the gym, not upper body.
6/08 = 191.2 (+0.8), BF% = 15.3. This is "one of those days." I played basketball last night, I had a healthy dinner, and I ate well yesterday; everything indicated that today should have been, at worst, maintaining my weight. Daily fluctuations; sometimes they make sense, sometimes they don't. But, given my current Zen state, I'm going to see this for what it is. Basketball was mediocre last night, but I didn't get hurt. I'm experiencing some ridiculous drama at work today (petty personal drama), and it has me in a bad mood.
6/09 = 190.2 (-1.0), BF% = 15.3. Basically A WHOOSH™. I ate well yesterday. I'm right in the edge of 189.x. Trying not to obsess about it. I play basketball in a little over an hour, and I'm going to stop at the gym. This could be the day. I'm going to eat very mindfully today. Going it for drinks tonight for a friend's birthday, so it's going to be tough. 2 drinks max, and they must be Keto-friendly.
6/10 = 190.8 (+0.6), BF% = 15.3. Yesterday was a mixed bag. Basketball was great, eating, not so much. My wife was a horrible, insidious influence. I know my eating is my responsibility, but she was in rare form. I need to find a kind way to talk with her about this, because I can deal with temptation, but not sabotage from my wife.
6/11 = 192.6 (+1.8), BF% = 15.5. I feel like this is "leftover" from my day before, because I was within calories, macros, and whatever. Maybe I had a "little" more bacon last night than I should have. I have been a little light on sleep the past few days, and I've also been a little light on water, and both of those could be affecting things. I'm playing basketball and going to the gym tonight. I'll keep trying to figure this out. Not going to let this get me down.
6/12 = 191.0 (-1.6), BF% = 15.3. Total BWHOOSH™ (formerly known as BOUNCE BACK™). Finally a decent weigh-in after basketball last night. My knee felt loose/sore at basketball, though, so it wasn't all good news. I went to the gym before basketball last night, lifted weights (including legs), but I have to admit that I skipped the gym last Thursday and Saturday (but still played basketball). I know better. Thinking back, I'm pretty sure I know what's going on, as it's happened before. Part of me (hell, all of me) wants to be "normal" again, someone who isn't dealing with the aftereffects of reconstructive knee surgery 20 years ago, including pretty severe osteoarthritis. I would love to be able to play basketball and NOT need to lift weights every time I go in order to keep my reconstructed knee and associated leg in its best possible state (which still sucks). This experience, once again, reminds me that this day will never come. It's a little depressing, but this is old, old news. If I go to the gym regularly (one gym workout per one day of basketball), I generally feel much better. I'm recommitting to doing this. Again. On a happier note, I'm going on vacation for a week! I will not be weighing in again until Wednesday, 6/20. Anyone have any ideas regarding how I should "report" this in my history (SW, EW, AW, etc.)? *Edit* Last night I asked my wife to take the following phrase out of her vocabulary when it comes to me and food, "Maybe you can just have a little."
6/13 = no weigh-in. Driving to Sedona this morning for a weeklong vacation with my in-laws (9 adults plus one 5-year-old and and infant). I got very little sleep last night. Our plan was to rent a huge can and drive together, but that fell apart last second, and we spent an extra 2 hours coming up with an alternative (renting a car and a Suburban). I'm exhausted, but excited about keeping to my Keto and trying to at least maintain my weight until I get back.
6/14 = no weigh-in. I did pretty well yesterday when I was in control, but ordering pizza for dinner I couldn't do anything about. Just ate the toppings and threw away the bread. I different did my best, but I'm hoping for some better choices (opportunities) for food. Sedona is gorgeous.

My habit of logging here is working as well in maintenance as it did while losing. Wishing everyone a god round!
Round 42 GOAL = Log every day. Get 5 cardio workouts. Get 5 mini strength workouts.
6/7 - 126.4 - whoosh of -2 pounds in a day. This takes me back to my pre-vacation range, getting rid of the bit I gained AFTER coming back. Yesterday just under maintenance calories, 30 min elliptical arctrainer, and tested my recovering knee in a 1.25 mile run ... it passed!
6/8 - 127.0 - Yesterday right at maintenance calories, RAN 2.2 MILES, walked an extra bit, and got my 10K steps.
6/9 - 127.4 - Yesterday under maintenance by 100 or so, ran 2 miles, and did a little body-weight strength workout, just starting. 10K steps.
6/10 - 128.0 - Yesterday 170 over maintenance calories and I LOGGED IT ANYWAY (that has been a fight for me so yay). Left Knee has gotten jealous of Right Knee and decided it wanted extra massage, the neoprene sleeve, arnica, and biofreeze TOO. Unfortunate, but maybe I shouldn't have done so many body weight lunges and squats barefoot on a cushy rug while watching the Warriors win the title Friday night. Nonetheless, 10K steps and a short walk.
6/11 - 128.4 - Yesterday under maintenance calories, 13K steps, and a workout that mixed short run, elliptical with sprints, and a little strength
6/12 - 126.8 - Yesterday under maintenance calories, 8K steps and at least got a few strength exercises in. Emotional day.
6/13 -126.8 - Yesterday under maintenance calories. It was just a day to get through and learn from. Here's to less self-caused emotional drama today.
Progress report: have accomplished 3/5 cardio workouts and 3/5 mini strength workouts so far. Time to finish strong, I see how anxiety the last couple of days affected my plan.
6/14 - 126.0 - Yesterday under maintenance calories - I have a little insurance built in and try to stay under as I let my fitbit burn sync up, and I consider that total to be "maintenance calories." Great run last night, most since the knees started feeling fragile: 3.75 miles.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07--219.2 I have no idea where the increase came from. Working on water today.
6/08--218.2 There it goes. Got my water in yesterday.
6/09--218.0 Going back down slowly. Working on making sure I get my water in this weekend. It's supposed to be a rainy weekend so I am planning on getting out when there is a break in the weather and get my steps in.
6/10--219.2 Chinese food water retention. Based on my past experience the water weight will stick around for 2-3 days. Got my steps in yesterday and already did Kettlebell for today. Going out to a bbq today, so it will be a good challenge for me to stay focussed on my balanced eating.
6/11--219.3 Surprised it wasn't higher. Between the soreness from Kettlebell and the small amount of water I drank yesterday, I was expecting more water weight to show up on the scale. I kept within my calories yesterday even though I went the bbq, so that was a success.
6/12--219.5 Sore from Kettlebell and not a great sleep. This has been a weird round for the scale. I will just keep doing what I need to do and let the scale do what the scale wants to do. Got walk in yesterday.
6/13--219.3 Woke up feeling heavy this morning. I looked back over my food diary and realized that for the past few days I have had little to no vegetables and very little fiber. I am going to work on increasing both over the next few days and see how I feel.
6/14--218.0 Feeling less heavy this morning. It's amazing how quickly your body can respond to a change in eating habits. Will continue to be conscious about the amount of fiber I am eating.
