Deviette · July 2018

Not sure I'm going to reach my target this round, unless I get a woosh of course. It was pretty optimistic, so I won't be too upset.

Previous Rounds:
Round 45 (1) - SW: 71.9 EW: 70.7 (-1.2kg)

Round 46 (2):
SW: 70.7kg
GW: 69.5kg
UGW: 62kg

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07: 70.6 - Ate left over pizza and got very very sweaty at judo. All in all a fairly good day. Slightly above my calories allowance, but only just, so should be okay on that.
7/08: 70.3 - Odd day of eating. Judo in the morning (feeling it today, didn't stretch enough afterwards), then when to my parents for lunch and dinner, so wasn't really able to log completely accurately. But did my best shot. Ate cakes and more things that I'd normally go lighter on and I had some wine. Overall calories weren't bad (mostly thanks to the stupid amount of judo I did in the morning)
7/09: 70.8 - Another really good day and ate under my calories. Breakfast wasn't great, but was more like brunch timewise. And then I felt like eating a big meal, so had a much larger than normal late lunch and then wasn't at all hungry for dinner so didn't eat anything. Would liked to have seen a drop to coincide with the good couple of days, but hopefully it's just a little wobble and I'll see it dropping again tomorrow.
7/10: 70.3 - And we're back here again (yay). Overall a good day on food, plus judo on top. Really wanted a snack when I got in from work (my lunch was not enough food I have decided) so ended up having nutella and peanut butter in a ricecake sandwich which is a fairly standard snack for me. Except this time I actually weighed everything out properly, and am fairly sure I've been under logging my spreads, something to bare in mind for future. Got half way through it, and didn't really feel hungry anymore, but I finished it anyway because I had already logged the calories. Kind of wish I hadn't now, I probably could've saved about 70-100kcals by leaving the 2nd half. Didn't eat all my rice for dinner, so that's been put into my lunch for today. Glad I'm actually listening to my body and how hungry I am. Wish I could act upon that feeling every time. However, all in all a positive day.
7/11: 70.3 - Better than going up! And I saw 69 appear for a second when I stepped on the scales! A pretty good day and was well under my calories. Somewhat surprisingly too. I'm slightly wondering if I messed up logging my dinner because I was really very full at the end of it (it was too yummy I didn't want to leave any) but it came in much less than I was expecting. I'm trying to work out if I under logged or if I'm just starting to get used to the smaller number of calories in my meals.

Hi, I fell off during Round 45 when we went out of town for the last few days and now I'm starting this one late.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07 - No Scale
7/08 - No Scale
7/09 - 191.9
7/10 - 189.9 - first day on LCHF and that water weight dropped right off. It’s a hard transition thou. I’m feeling drained already from the carb withdrawals.
7/11 - 188.8 - Still feeling the side effects from the carb withdrawals, but it's nice to see the scale moving even if its water weight.

Round 46 (1) SW 307.2 GW 303.0 UGW 175.0

I have lost the same four pounds between 307 and 303 at least six times. How silly is that? Last time down these pounds....go away 307.....

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07 308.2 Ack!!! I said I wanted to be out of the 307 number but I didn't mean 308. Good grief.

7/08 308.0 Almost back to 307s. Looking for consistency in eating. Logging but need to find a way to stay busier on weekends so I'm not finding extra calories to consume. Big change coming.

7/09 308.0 I think my scale is broken

Doctor appt on Friday to show progress. Let's get off to a good start this week. Keep up the great work everyone.

7/10 305.2 Ok, going the right direction. Past 307 and 306 back to 305. Now to focus on 304. Much better day of eating yesterday. Weekends at home are tough -- too many options.

7/11 304.8 Bye 305. Hope to never see you again. 304 - this is a temporary stop -- no offense but I want to visit your neighbor 303 pretty soon.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07 - 163 - I'm glad I didn't bump up from yesterday's weight. Now let's see if I can get through this plateau in the next 10 days.
7/08 - 161.5 - I know this won't last, but it sure is nice to see!
7/09 - 161 - Whoa, was not expecting this!
7/10 - 160.5 - So I bounced between 163 and 165 for 3 weeks while sticking to my calorie goals. Either I've smashed through my plateau or my scales need a new battery.
7/11 - 161.5 - As long as I don't have to see 163 again this round, I'm happy.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.

REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

7/07 - 152.6
I'll take it and be happy for today but not sure how accurate it is. Going to the lake today so I will have to be very mindful of what I'm eating and to make sure I'm continuously drinking my water. I tend to snack on everything at the lake and slack on water, got to change that habit.

7/08 - Camping, no weigh in.

7/09 - 152.4 -

7/10 - 152.4 - Hoping for a drop soon, scale first showed 151.4 and I got really excited but the next two times it showed 152.4 do that's probably more accurate to what my weight is. Got a morning and evening workout in yesterday, doing 2 different challenges. 30 Day Challenge and an 8 Week Challenge, looking forward to seeing some results.

7/11 - 152.4 - Did both challenges yesterday, my legs are definitely feeling it. Yoga today will be perfect for my sore muscles. Hoping to see a drop any day now. I wanted to be out of the 150s by Saturday for a big party we're going to but don't believe that will be happening.

My official weekly weigh in, is Tuesday evening @ TOPS, so my ticker tape will reflect that loss.

My daily weight is on my home scale, so I can monitor how my week is going.

My ultimate goal is 175lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

7/7 at 5:00 / 230.6 / Urk!

7/8 at 10:45 / 230.4 / Terrible eating. Too much running around. Too little drinking with too much salt. On the plus side, yesterday we went to NYC and saw the Statue of Liberty and were able to climb into the crown. Something like 350 steps from the ground to her crown, with the second half going up a tiny, twisting staircase. It was lots of fun and we all got a bit wobbly on the way down.

I now have a really weird sunburn on a spot where I guess I missed putting on sunscreen.

7/9 at 8:00 / 229.4 / I had a much better eating day yesterday and drank lots of fluids. This week should be a very simple week. Fingers crossed!

7/10 at 6:15 / 229 / Good eating day yesterday. Today, I'm taking part in a challenge where my only drink is water. I don't know how capable I am of that! I love my Diet Coke! I hit my head really hard during my commute. I have a bit of a headache, but I think things are okay. I'm on a bit of high alert right now.

7/11 at 6:00 / 228 / Good eating. I made it through day 1 of no Diet Coke. Can I make it two in a row?

This is my 1st round... better late than never
SW 186.6 lbs
Date/weight/comment
7/7 186.6 lbs worked out in the morning but went out for drinks that night
7/8 woke up late and forgot to weigh myself, I feel like your true weight is only in the mornings, so I let it go and did bad the rest of the day. (Not a good idea but I'll pay for it in tomorrow's weigh in.)
7/9 187.6 smh a whole nother pound I have to get ride of now...I need to do better the weekends always get me, I can control my portions better during the weekdays because of the routine..I got this
7/10 186.8 ok well I'm at least getting back to were I started. I watched my calories and did a small 10 min morning workout then an afternoon workout of Julian Michaels of 30 day shred. I love her workout videos, I am so feeling it this morning I'm so sore that I didn't even want to do my morning workout. I contemplated allot but decided to do it.
7/11..186.2 My scale was all over the place this morning, 1st at 186.2, then 185.8 then 189.8 I swear I got on at least 10 times and the 186.2 came up the most, so that's what I am going with. Did both morning and afternoon workout yesterday, so happy cause I am so sore I really didn't want to but I was given chocolate at work, that I was like if I eat this I have to workout in the afternoon and so that's what I did lol. Yesterday I did day 2 in level one 30 day shred. (10 days each level )

Just Give Me 10 Days

5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again. Confident it’ll stick this time. SW: 250lbs (05/28/18), UGW: 140-150lbs

R45 EW 231.4 (-3.6)
R46 TBD

Day/Weight/Comment
7/07- 231.4 Pleasantly surprised I’m holding steady from yesterday. NSV- Did great at the wedding. Was careful how much I ate for dinner and ate enough of the cake to appreciate the taste of it. Saw an acquaintance I hadn’t seen in 2 months and she told me I was looking good. She’s very PC so she wouldn’t come straight out and say “You’ve lost some weight.” Nice way to start the round.
7/08- 231.8 No explanation for the bump except maybe some GI issues. Good food day yesterday. Family event today = loads of food. Aiming for good food choices.
7/09- 232.4 my scale seems to like this number. Disheartened that the numbers are going the wrong way. I did everything I was supposed to do this weekend. I was especially proud since I had two social events and I felt I did well at both.
7/10- 231.4 I feel like the scale and I are subjects of a Katy Perry song. At least it’s down to this round’s SW... for now.
7/11- 230.4 Starting to question the accuracy of my scale. Lots of .4s logged. Regardless though, there’s a pep in my step today.

I've decided to pay more attention to my moving average weight rather than daily ups & downs, so that's what I'm reporting this round. Also reporting both daily calories & 10-day calorie averages, because I've found the averages mean more in terms of my weight trend, but I still like to see what the daily numbers are.

Goals:
Food ~~ 1330 net calories 10-day average; P 15-25%, C 35-50%, F 25-35%; mostly clean & healthful
Exercise: 60 minutes/day of walking/swimming + yoga/stretch class 3X/week
Weight ~~ looking for a steady or downward trend. Time is not an issue.

UGW - ~130

Day/Moving Average Weight/Calories Day Before/10-day ave (aiming for 1330 net)/Comment

7/07 - 147.6 - 1645 - 10-day average 1250
I had a lovely day yesterday, and today promises more of the same. Temp in the low 80s and clear, so I went for a 4-mile walk on our beautiful Rivergreenway in the morning. Did some gardening in the afternoon, and then some housecleaning (

) because we had friends over for dinner, which was lovely with the gorgeous long evening to sit outside and talk and watch the birds and eat a bit too much (but healthy!). I hope you all have a beautiful weekend!

7/08 - 147.7 - 1377 - 10-day ave 1371
We're having a string of gorgeous days - temps in the 80s, brilliant blue skies.... I saw the results of Friday evening's splurge on the scale this morning, but I'm going with the averages, so not letting it stress me out. I worked in the garden for an hour last evening, moving and planting - there's nothing like playing with living color in the dirt to lift the spirits! Off for a walk in a few minutes. Have a lovely day, all!

7/09 - 147.7 - 1553 - 10-day ave 1412

7/10 - 147.8 - 1549 - 10-day ave 1420 - 7-day ave 1456
I didn't have a chance to check in yesterday so just added my data. Calculating averages has turned out to be really useful - I see a much clearer correlation between my 10-day (or 7-day) calorie average and my weight than between daily calorie fluctuations and weight. Since I'm using my moving weight average, changes aren't so startling, but in fact my weight this morning was 149, which makes sense since not just my daily calories but my calorie averages are up a little. So now I can make sensible adjustments. Oh, and I did splurge last night on a half cup of ice cream and had Mexican for lunch, so it all makes sense.

7/11: - 148 - 2035 - 10-day ave 1507
I have no idea why, but yesterday evening I pretty deliberately overate - I haven't had this many calories since May 25, and that was a similar anomaly. Weirdly, I woke up really hungry for breakfast. Go figure. Of course, my weight is up and will no doubt stay up for a couple of days, but focusing on the moving average helps me see the bigger picture. Anyway, that's the end of that foolishness for another long while! I'm just thinking of it s a quick re-feed and moving on. Planning a nice long walk this morning and maybe another this evening.

Seeking lower bodyfat%

July is the month that I will assess what foods I can eat, once in a whi!e, outside of keto. I do not expect any loss of weight. If I eat something that makes me gain or not feel well, then "OFF WITH ITS HEAD! Lol, no, but definitely off of my foods list.

•7/7 - 192.2 :bigsmile:
•7/8 - 192.6 - I guess I'll be seeing every increment of 192 this challenge. Although, after what I ate today, I expect to see up to 194. I enjoyed my son's Belgian waffles again today. I planned for 2 and thats what I ate at a cost of over 130 grams of carbs, 110 net carbs. EGADS!
•7/9 - 192 - Ended up being 135g carbs / 112g net after eating some green beans for dinner.
•7/10 - 192 - A normal high carb day for me on keto yesterday, 44g, 41 net. Salad greens, lime juice for my water, salsa and a few tablespoons of crispy red peppers as a salad topping.

•7/11 - 191.6 - Oh my, what a surprise! I thought my scale would read 192.4 for sure (I think that's one I skipped) or 193 upwards to 194. Yesterday, I kept the children while my DIL worked. It was the usual busy, fun chaos and I did manage to eat breakfast. I even ate a small peach and several strawberries. 35 net carbs for the day. No second meal for me though (peanut butter to the rescue) and not enough water until after they left. I weighed 5 times and the averaged total was 191, so I chose the number I saw twice. Maybe I will see an increase tomorrow.

Round goals: consistently hit protein goal for macros and get used to logging again.

Day/Weight/BF%/Comment
7/07 225.9/42.2%/let's do this.

7/08 223.5/41.8%/ MFP calories are too low if this is from day 1, I overate by 600 calories, had a glass of wine and I still lost like this. Hit the macro percentages though.

Am going to hold the cals at 1800 (not 1200) and see if that was a fluke. I have essentially been on a 3 year refeed, lol, and although I do want this weight off and am mentally ready to do it now, I do not want to blow up my metabolism for the umpteen millionth time by crashing my way through it. Went on a 5.65 mile hike/walk/run today with the dogs, because I like doing it. Aside from the stuff I like to do, I am really going to try hard to make this about the diet and doing as little as I can to get the scale to keep going in the right direction. It is going to be a long road, 10 days at a time (maybe even one day and one meal at a time), but um, heck yeah, I am excited about how things have started. Yay for newbie gains and trying not to be an idiot.

7/09 227.3/42.8%/😡 going to throw my scale out the window if it doesn't start making sense. Going to try to keep hitting my macros though.

7/10 224.0/42.3%/😏 I told that scale who's boss! Stayed within my cals. Only 5% off on macro splits, but close enough. I weighed in at 227.9 on 7/4, which is (in part) what prompted my return to logging and daily weighing. Maybe these wild fluctuations are just my thing for now? As long as the daily average goes down over time.

7/11 224.3/42.6%/😶 I will take it. Over on cals by 600. Just tired and used food to help boost through the day. About 5% low on my protein too. I got 9h sleep last night though so that should help moving forward. I am down 3.6lb from a week ago and 1.6 from the start of the challenge 4 days ago. Thinking about bumping my calorie goal up 200 cals (especially if I am going to blow it anyway) to see if I can still lose at a rate of about 1.5% of BW a week on a higher goal amount of food. Aiming for what I can do consistently and the minimum possible to achieve the next goal on schedule. Plenty of room on this journey to cut cals later.
