Sorry, I'm reposting. I couldn't get into the edit function.
Well, I'm done with 2 of my 5 workout-classes for the week. I'm so dog-tired. But I know that's my body growing and healing. So I'm ok with it. I'm actually thinking about adding my 0400 runs again. But with the heat/humidity, its not been easy. Well, nothing which is worth having, is easy :-)

xoxo, Meg

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.

Day/Weight/Comment

•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.

Day/Weight/Comment

7/07: Weight = 164.5 (down .4 from yesterday) Happy to see the scale moving in the right direction to start off this challenge! Yesterday was a good day - was able to squeeze in a short run between thunderstorms and completed day 19 of my exercise challenge which was a Posterior Chain workout (Thigh Jacks, Elevated Bridge Lifts, Triceps Dips, Swimmers, Single Leg Tabletops, 3-Way Calf Raises). So what I learned yesterday, is that I have SUPER weak back muscles. I've found in past workouts that doing Supermans are hard for me but the Swimmer's yesterday showed me just how weak my back is. Swimmers = lie on your stomach with your arms and legs fully extended - lift your arms and legs up and begin to paddle, alternating right leg, left arm up, then left leg, right arm like a swimmer, keep your lower back engaged for 45 seconds x 3. So that's something I definitely need to work on. On to day 20 today which is Cardio Ladders. I hope everyone has a great start to their weekend and to this challenge

7/08: Weight = 162.3 (down 2.2 from yesterday). I KNOW this is not a real loss. Slept in this morning and weighed-in super late so that will account for this low number. I don't expect this to be my weight tomorrow but as long as it is below 164.5 tomorrow, I'll be good. Yesterday I was below calories, on target with macros and completed my day 20 exercises. Around 10 p.m. I found myself doing a few walking laps of my house to get my Fitbit to 10,000 steps - so silly, but hey, it is making me move more. It's a beautiful day here today, and not hot or humid like last week, so going to go enjoy a nice run and then get my day 21 challenge workout. Probably grilling out tonight, love lazy summer days!

7/09: Weight = 162.3 Didn't expect this number to stick around, very surprised but happy! I still won't believe this is a real loss for another day or two. Yesterday was the last day of the break in the heat wave, going back up this week, so I enjoyed being outside and had a great run and then we cooked out last night. Husband cooked a flank steak, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers on the grill and he and our daughter had fajitas and I skipped the tortilla and had mine on top of a brown rice/quinoa grain salad, delicious! I completed day 21 of my exercise challenge which was all about back strengthening, which I need. Capped of the evening watching the Tour de France (so addicted to this every summer), so all in all a nice relaxing weekend. My daughter has extended school year (just 3 days a week during July only) starting this week and we live relatively close to where it is being held, so I'll be walking her there for drop off and walk back for pick-up, so should be adding in some extra calorie burn for the next month. Have a great start to your week, everyone!

7/10: .= 161.8 (down .5 from yesterday) I *think* I've broken through my plateau, I want to see another day in this range and then feel like these are real losses. Yesterday was a good day, I ate under calories and hit my macros, no alcohol, no gluten, lots of water and completed my day 22 challenge exercise which was a lateral/side body circuit workout. Also got in a 30 minute walk with my daughter to do a trial run to see how long it would take to get her to summer school, 15 minutes there and 15 minutes back. Although my plan is to walk her there for drop off and then run home and then run back for pick-up and walk home with her. Anything to get that extra calorie burn! My big happy moment yesterday was when I caught my daughter looking at me and then she said "Mommy, I can see it, you are losing weight. You look different than you did". That being said, I am always careful being the mother of an almost teenage girl, that I tell her I am doing this to get my fitness back and be strong and healthy not to be skinny.

7/11: Weight = 161.8 (same as yesterday) I'm down 10.2 lbs since I recommitted to my weight loss in June. I'm really happy to reach this 1st milestone! Yesterday was good all around, got in lots of exercising and got my most steps since I got my fitbit last week, ate under calories and didn't have any gluten or alcohol. I did my day 23 exercise challenge yesterday which was a full body workout and I'm on tired legs today. Luckily, the scheduled workout for today is Active Recovery with 15 gratitude sun salutations. And the weather is pretty good today too, so I think my daughter and I might mini golf this afternoon, a fun way to get in some steps on this rest day.
