7/06- I had a super hungry day due to (steroids), but I know to watch tomorrow, more exercise and watch my food choices. I went for a long walk tonight.
7/07- Prepared my meals for next week. Made broccoli soup, for lunch next week. Lots of vegetables and fruit.
Going to be very careful what I pick to eat. Fitbit steps 11,500.
7/08- Better food choices having a hard time steroids are making me hungry and 2-4 hours of sleep at night, went out walking Fitbit steps-10, 500. Enjoyed the weather outside today.
7/10- Great day spent lots of time outside, went for a walk after dinner 11,500 steps. Made a lot of good food
choices, had a smoothie frozen pineapples, celery, cucumbers, spinach, flax seed and water. Kept me full.
7/11- Tip - I made enough of my smoothie to last for today too. Fitbit steps 10,500, I was tired today only 2 1/2 hours of sleep last night.
7/12- another 2 hour sleep night. Fitbit steps 9,000. Need the weekend to rest.
7/13- Went for my radiation appointment and then weekly visit with the doctor he could not believe I`m doing so good, active and no symptoms at all. I have to work on planning my meals today I did not plan and I ate more than usual. I have to make soups and smoothies to have ready.11 -

7/07...174...looking forward to the next ten days' progress!
7/08...174... ya, baby!!!! It's legit! Worked my tail off yesterday and feeling it. Got another busy day ahead.
7/09...176...had another hot work day yesterday. Chalking the gain up to water retention. Bod feels achy and great. Was ravenous last night and woke up with stomach growling. That's unusual for me.
7/10...176...cinnamon bench!!!! On the bright side, my pants are not as tight and I can feel some muscle building below the fat. 😄
7/11...175...love seeing this number drop, but happy it's not my only progress reference. Dropping inches, baby!!!!
7/12...175...my energy level is getting better. Step count is back up over 10k. Resting heart rate is down to 65. Baby steps!
7/13....175...Friday 13th!!! Time for some good old fashioned horror flicks! Weight is steady but my pants are getting looser. I'm enjoying jogging on the rebounder while it's still hot out, but looking forward to hitting the trails in a few months. I figure I ought to be in good enough shape by then.

@puttyputty I use to have the same issues with diet coke. I finally kicked it when I found alternative waters. Vitamin water, for those days where water seems too bland and carbonated water for the fizz. Carbonated water also comes in flavors, my favorite is peach.
Just keep with it!!!! You won't miss it once it's kicked!!
Good luck and great job on the loss3 -

13/06: 212.8 lbs … surprisingly not worried, as I ate out last night, so sodium I guess!
14/06: 211.2 lbs ,,, I feel like a yo-yo at the moment, emotionally and physically.
15/06:
16/07: goal: get under 210.0 and stay there!
Feeling quite frustrated with these bumps, I need to just dig deep, stick with it and wait for the scales to start behaving again! - Looking for a downward trend to see out this round now! Really focused on my logging.
I am SO SO determined!! I 100% NEED to stay mindful about my daily logging and being mindful about what I eat and drink.
This is a long term thing, a few bad days is something I'm getting better at coping with.

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.
7/12: 69.5 - I was not expecting that. Not one bit. Yesterday was good on the food, but then that cider and a couple of Gin and tonics happened and I was expecting this mornings weigh in to be heavy thanks to that. Could be going the other way in that I'm more dehydrated than normal, so I might be gaining some of this back tomorrow. I'll wait and see. Fingers crossed I stay below the 70 mark
7/13: 69.9 - Pfffft only just. Looks like I was dehydrated yesterday morning because I was actually kept myself well hydrated yesterday. Did a good job at avoiding temptations, work had a free bbq and icecream and stuff, which I only found out about after I'd eaten my lunch. Was very tempted to go and get more more food anyway, but somewhat proud of myself that I didn't, because I knew I didn't need it (though my tummy was rumbling a little, I think that was more to do with me being slightly hung over). Massively volume ate for dinner though. Ended up eating a whole baked marrow (all of about 150 kcals) so felt uncomfortably full for the evening. I managed to remind myself why I don't like overeating without completely blowing my calories. Also, not certain I got completely enough protein yesterday, so I will be ensuring that today will have more in.
7/14: 70.2 uuuuuuuuugh. I didn't want to see that number again. I'm sure it's just fluctuations (she says in hope). Surprisingly good day, considering I had a pasty for breakfast, almost certainly blowing most of my calories for the day. Because of when I judoed, I wasn't at all hungry in the evening and so barely had anything for dinner, keeping me well in target calories. Muscles are slightly sore this morning, probably need to stretch out a little more after judo. Today is a drinking day, so I'm not looking forward to tomorrow's weigh in.

7/8 - 185.0 lbs (-0.8) Must have been really bloated yesterday 😂
7/9 - 184.0 lbs (-1.0) Lol what? This won’t last.. Just water 😅
7/10 - 185.4 lbs (+1.4) I was sorta prepared for this but wow.. I’m not fond of these huge variations. I can’t explain this gain, ate well under my calorie goal yesterday.
7/11 - 184.7 lbs (-0.7) Ok, good. It’s going in the right direction again 😂 Hope it continues to drop.
7/12 - 184.4 lbs (-0.3) Let’s hope to never see the 185 number again now!
7/13 - 184.0 lbs (-0.4) Please stick around this time 😂
7/14 - 184.0 lbs (—) Don’t think I’ll reach my challenge goal weight. But I’m pleased as long as I’m losing, even if it is slow.

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.
7/12 - 187 - I’m loving these water weight drops. It’s motivating seeing the number go down. Added bonus, I woke up this morning not feeling like death. Hoping to have the keto flu behind me!
7/13 - 185.5 - So this is the lowest I've been since May, which is great, but I need to remember that the weight loss isn't going to last at the same speed and that's ok. I just need to stay motivated.
7/14 - 184.2 - I've decided that I'm just going to enjoy losing 7.7 lbs of mostly water this week instead of dreading the inevitable slow down. I've lost almost 8 lbs this week and I'm not starving myself and if I'm hungry I eat. I think I'm starting to like this Keto lifestyle.

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.
7/12- 231.4 Why???????!!!!!!!!???????!!!!!!
7/13- 230.0 The scale was a flirt and flashed 229s for a bit. Made my heart skip a beat. What a tease!
7/14- 229.8 Well, hello 229s. It’s been a while since I’ve seen this number. Gonna make sure this sticks for a couple days before logging it officially. First time logging two consecutive days of losses this round. The scale has been frustrating but I’ve been doing well staying within my calorie goals everyday.

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.

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!

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.
7/12 - 147.8 - 1165 - 10-day ave 1466
Apparently my splurge on Tuesday carried over, because I wasn't very hungry most of yesterday & I felt kinda crummy. I did go for a walk, but only half an hour. Back to normal today (I hope!).
7/13 - 148 - 1230 - 10-day ave 1462 - 7-day ave 1507
Yesterday was a good day - beautiful weather for a walk by the river and low-calories to balance my Tuesday splurge, which is still showing up on my weight & moving average, but I expected that. Also, my average calories have been higher than goal throughout this round until the last two days, so there ya go. OTOH, I've lots a half-inch of waist and I put on some jeans that were snug a month ago - they're loose. So don't use the scale as the only measure of progress!
7/14 - 148.2 - 1330 - 10-day ave 1474
Yep, the averages make perfect sense, and my splurge on Tues is working itself out. All good. I went for a lovely walk yesterday morning before the heat hit, but today I'll have to go to the gym or wait until late evening - gonna be HOT. I had hoped to hit the 6's this round, but hoping while pigging out doesn't cut it.
Have a lovely weekend, all!

7/08 133.0 Over calories, over macros, 4 servings of vodka (assuming they even put vodka in the drinks at the casino!) Two there, two at home. I slept like a baby!
7/09 133.0 Starting today I’m doing a 4 day Beef and Butter Fast with some of my online Keto friends. I love burgers! But there other recipes too! YUM!

7/11 174.2 excessively exercised today, hoping to see that reflected in my weight for tomorrow. Drank 1.5 liters of water
7/12 173.4
7/13 172.7 didn't exercise yesterday all that much. Slightly disappointed but saw somewhat of a loss so I am still happy. Back to the routine. Drank 1 liter of water yesterday, I want to try and complete at least 2 liters today
7/14 173 exercised, even though I didn't feel like it, drank water but still only 1 liter. Still shooting for 2 *crosses fingers* tomorrow I am due for my period and I am feeling a little bloated, hopefully after the first couple of days but my body will drop those last 3 pounds. Determined to hit that 170 by the end of this 10 day challenge!!!

7/10 - 167.0
7/11 - 166.6 Stayed on track yesterday as far as calories go. Ended the day with 1393 In & 2158 out. Carb intake was just over 100, a bit more than I would have like but still not bat. I got over 8 hours of sleep last night.

7/12:166.8/Rest day and getting together with friends = anxiety over calorie consumption mixed with I don’t want to get mental about what I am eating and let it ruin my day. So a mix of both, choose wisely, but have some fun and if I go over it will be okay, it’s a ‘marathon not a sprint’ mantra for today.
7/13: 167.0/Reversed my numbers yesterday, ack, now it’s correct! Went for run this am. Did not eat dinner, lack of options and time, don’t like when this happens. Alcohol free for 30 days today!
7/14: 167.0/Blah, go away 167!!
Thank you for the shout-outs about my 7/13 weight, I have a habit of transposing numbers. I most definitely did NOT magically gain 10lbs overnight. It is nice to know that others are actually taking the time to read and comment on others posts, thank you!9 -
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.
7/12 304.0 So close to leaving 304-zone behind. Tomorrow is my doctor appointment to check progress. Have managed to lose several pounds but only after I had gained several pounds. But I'm mentally figuring out how this works. Coming up on one year learning how to focus. Lots of ups and downs throughout. Not just a number on the scale but rather re-learning how to eat, how to exercise, how to exist....watching all of your progress on this board has been a blessing. Keep up the great work.
7/13 302.4 Jump over 303 -- not going backwards anymore. Lots of room in front of me -- lots of pounds to go but nice looking back at the pounds I'm leaving behind. Focusing on the process and not just the number. The scale is a byproduct of the work we all put in and just one measure of our effort.
7/14 303.8 So 303 reached out and grabbed me to pull me back up. Of course I didn't help by eating off my plan and adding some extra calories. Correct it and move on -- tomorrow back to 302-world....Hope everyone has a great weekend.

•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.
•7/12 - 191.6 - Okay. Yesterday carbs were salad and a half cup of watermelon. 35g, 31 net carbs. I had to run errands and that always alters my eating plan later in the day. I ate dinner a little later than usual. I cut back the watermelon from a full cup and did not eat guacamole that I had in my food diary. I had no appetite for it.
•7/13 - 191.4 - BMI hovering above overweight. Another busy day yesterday, so I had to revise my food plan. Too much prep between my dinner and DH & DS's dinner. I just ate what they ate keto - ized 53g carbs, 37g net carbs. Lemon juice, celery, a roma tomato, 1/4 cup cantaloupe, and salad greens. Retaining some fluid today, fingers are stiff and my problem knee feels a bit tight.
•7/14 - 189.4 -
- "hunches shoulders" go figure. 55g carbs, 39g net carbs yesterday. Low carb flatbread, spinach, salad, small peach, jalapeno, whole roma tomato. All I can say is FAT ADAPTATION IN THE HOUSE!

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: Weight = 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.
7/12: Weight = 161.6 (down .2 from yesterday) Yesterday was active recovery, so took it very easy but completed my day 24 challenge (yoga) and just had a nice afternoon/evening with my daughter. We watched a movie after mini golf and just vegged out on the sofa, my steps were super low but that was the plan. Back at it today with running, a booty workout and a walk planned.
7/13: Weight = 160.3 (down 1.3 from yesterday) Had a bit of a late weigh-in this morning, might account for this big loss, I'll see what tomorrow brings if it sticks. Yesterday, I got my run and walk in and completed the day 25 challenge which was a booty/legs barre workout. I really liked this workout, hope to do more like it. I've wanted for a while to check out one of those barre workout places, might do that in the fall after I reach my 1st weight loss goal and feel more comfortable working out in a group setting. Dinner was super yummy last night which was a porcini mushroom risotto, I added in sauteed zucchini and yellow squash and some prepared meatballs, so probably had a bit of gluten with those but in moderation I still feel fine with a little gluten. Love, that I am eating real foods that I enjoy and still losing weight, this is how I will succeed long term. No "diet" here. Just have to be mindful of portion control. Today is a stress fest at my house with my daughter, doing my best to hang in and be strong for her but it takes an emotional toll on me, hello that's how I got fat. But, I know I can not control the situation just how I react to it - so no stress eating/drinking from me today, will manage my stress with working out and getting in some gratitude sun salutations....the one that resonates the most to me currently is "I am grateful and appreciative of everything in my life".
7/14: Weight = 160.1 (down .2 from yesterday) Another late weigh-in this morning and I'll hopefully weigh-in late tomorrow morning too, so the Monday end of challenge number may bump up a tad, but I'm okay with that. I did not stress eat or drink yesterday, so SUCCESS but I also didn't eat enough so feeling a bit sluggish here this morning and have an intense cardio workout scheduled for today which I need my energy up for. I completed my day 26 Upper Body challenge work out yesterday and got in a long walk as well. Thank you for the support yesterday!

@mthomas0228 as a mom of a 16 year old boy who is going through some tough times my love goes out to you, some days the only thing that gets me through is "there is no way out except through" and to know that everything is always changing.
Thank you @denicaswrex !1
