JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS - ROUND 55

rainykatie · October 2018

OSW: 212 (Sept 2017)
FGW: 170
10/5: 194.6
10/6: 194 - I went to the gym yesterday for the first time in a while. I've been exercising outdoors all summer, but yesterday it rained. It actually felt good to work out inside! A change is good sometimes.
10/7: 194.6 I'm feeling a little bloated today so not surprised there has been no drop. I did pretty good yesterday with my eating and logging, but before dinner I was hungry and did some snacking on pretzels and hummus. I did get out for a long horseback ride and hike (i get off my horse and walk up all the steep hills) so exercise goal is a big check for yesterday. Today my goal is to stick to my calorie goal and fit in yoga and a jog.
10/8: 194.8. Trying not to be discouraged. I had a pretty good weekend as far as weekends go. I logged my food, wasn't as austere as I had hoped, but didn't go over either day. Yesterday I went to the beach for a run with my 6 year old. We did 2 miles, he's got so much energy! 6 year olds don't like jogging as it's boring, so we pick landmarks ahead (logs, piles of seaweed) to race to. It's like full on sprints! My legs are sore and we had fun together. A great day. Monday is here and I've got gym plans and a healthy lunch packed. Here we go.

@Bendiz _ Congrats on entering into the 160's. Awesome job!

@SunnyB0126 - Typo on you October 8th weight?

@quiltingjane - Congrats on your new low weight of 130.0 Wowza! The Keto lifestyle really works and I too am enjoying it! Your journey is so inspiring!

@AJB1014 - For my home and office desk I use a Pioneer Woman glass (quart size) water bottle with a metal lid and an included straw. I don't know if you call it a "bottle" exactly. It is actually like a mason jar. I purchased mine at Walmart. I didn't want plastic either because of my cancer history. I have even steered away from the BPA free plastic water bottles because water stays in the containers long enough to cause a concern for me. This would not be something you could take on a run or to the gym. More for home and desk.

10/05 - 174.8
10/06 - 174.6
10/07 - 174.6
10/08 - 174.8 Dinner out. Kept good portions. Took most of it home to give away because it had too many carbs. However, I caved in on a cheesecake dessert. On this keto diet the cheesecake is actually a better choice so while I was a bit over on the carbs overall, the whole day ended in maintenance carbs and calories. So I am satisfied. Pushing water today. I am also agreeing with @quiltingjaine about the sugar (which, of course, was in the cheesecake). I will be diligent today.

Round 55
10/05 153

I had spaghetti for the first time in months last night. I have been avoiding pasta. I am beginning to realize that I can have things I want, in moderation. As long as I eat well most of the time, and control my portions, then I will continue to have great progress.
10/06 153 I failed to mention yesterday that I tried a new workout Thursday. I am still sore, in areas that I've never been sore before. Needed to step up my routine, and it was tough! Found it on fitness blender on YouTube if anyone wants to try it out, but will fair warn you it was tough for me. I plan to do it a few days per week.
10/07 153 Going to work extra hard this coming week on keeping my carbs and sugar under because I will be going away to stay with my sister next weekend. I know there will be lots of temptation! I know I will not totally ruin it though because my willpower is so much stronger now.
10/08 152.5 😊 I weighed after my walk though. I was way under on calories yesterday, but WHAT I ate wasnt healthy.

Round 54: +1 lb

OSW: 256.2
RGW: 255
UGW: 150

Day/Weight/Comment:
10/05 - 257.2 - Starting round #55, 1 lb up. This is sooooo why I need something like this for accountability. I used a visit from friends as a reason to just "wing it". I really have to stay on board for the loss to happen.
10/06 - 257.2 - no change. Heavy dinner will do that to ya. I need to make time for my own meal prep!
10/07 - 256.8 - Yay!! I'll take any loss

But....I didn't stick to plan last night & I know it takes 2 days for any slip-ups to make it onto my scale (weird, huh?!)
10/08 - 256.8 - Slow & easy does it I guess. 1.8 to go this round and 6 days to do it. I can do this!

mskanakana · October 2018

I’m 5’3” and 43.
Round 54 (my round 1) SW187 FW183.4
Round 55 (my round 2) SW 183 my goal for this round is 179

10/5 183.4 whew, I was afraid I was up! I had a busy few days and logged food, but didn’t check in here. Been doing a good job of keeping calories and carbs down - until my mom brought over pumpkin pie last night. Carbs and sweets are my downfall. Today I’m not working out as it is my rest day but planning to keep active and keep calories way down as the weekend is coming!

10/6 182 and so happy to see this downward trend. My exercise class was canceled this morning so now I’m trying to find something to do. Probably will end up walking the dog but was hoping for a more intense and full body workout. Tomorrow is going to be a major test as we have a birthday party and my favorite cherry cake will be served. So I’ll just have to plan for it.

10/7 182 this morning. Today hasn’t been a good eating day as I went to a birthday party. I skipped breakfast in preparation. I filled 3/4 of my plate with veggies and the rest was a chicken potato dish. Then the cake and, yes, a second piece of cake. Here’s the thing: delicious, but after the forth bite it was just too sweet. Did that make me stop? No. And I need to figure out why. Has anyone else figured this out? Now I’ve crashed on the couch and had to take a short nap. Sugar...who invented this stuff anyway?!!

10/8 184.6 ugh. So disappointed in myself. Yesterday’s birthday feast has already caught up to me. I both went to bed and woke up feeling like crap. Maybe it’s a good reminder to lay off the sugar. Im seriously going to think of it as a drug and that I’m addicted to it - once I have a taste I can’t seem to stop from yet another slice of cake. I even did the whole “gotta even it out” from the remaining cake thing. I’m low carb-ing it today in hopes it brings me back down. Had a great workout this morning. Fingers crossed!

sue_01 · October 2018

10/05- I'm struggling, but I keep trying. I have been battling with a lot of swelling again and hair loss from Radiation.
10/06- our family had an early Thanksgiving dinner, I only ate half. of the food on my plate and with desert I was full. Took the rest home.
10/07- Planning meals for next week, goal more exercise.
10/08- This is a hard challenge for me, gave up bread, potatoes, noodles, I have been eating to much bread since I had surgery eating more fruits and vegetables, going for a long walk.

So bummed that my scale is gone up but it was almost instantaneous after the break and then again after the surgery. I’m clearly retaining fluids (massive swelling) even though I’ve been walking each day (quite a lot actually) and watching what I ate.

I’ve been told it’s not good to try to lose weight after surgery, but at this point with several pounds more on, I’m gonna go ahead and go back in and diet to get back to at least 161.

I worked so hard to get from 165 to 157.8 that this has been really tough to handle.

I hope you’re all doing well.

I'm a mother of 3 trying to get in shape and be a positive role model for my kids. Feel free to add me to your friends list so we can support each other!

10/08: 247.4 - I ate one fast food meal yesterday and it used up all of my calories. I'm so glad I don't eat out much.

You're on a important mission, LonniJay! We can keep the fast food carbs and calories down by skipping the fries and buns with burgers, removing the skin from fried chicken, dumping tacos out of their shells, just being careful about what we eat. At one stop over the weekend, I said "no fries," but got them anyway. I gave the fries away. Sometimes, we have to remind ourselves, "I'm in charge!" Get bossy with yourself! It can be fun!

Enjoy your 3 children. What a blessing!

ROUND 55 (Round 2 for me)
5’5” 65 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
GW 140 lb.
Round 54 – SW 178 lb. down to 171.8 lb. (6.2 lb. loss) This was my beginning of eating keto and tracking calories. I expect more realistic loss this round, but loss, none the less!

Day/Weight/Comment
10/05 171.6 I’m happy to be starting another round! After a big breakfast with our guests from Zimbabwe, Thor (my GSD) and I walked a little over 3 miles. I took water for both of us this time. Someone took my water before I returned for it, but I drank a little of Thor’s water. We walked a little slower than usual since I had a full tummy from breakfast.
10/06 171.4 No walk, getting ready for a 2-day bus trip, singing and eating with my sisters in Christ. When I joined the group, my husband groaned, because he didn’t want me to be heavy like the rest of the ladies. His fears were grounded, and I gained about 40 lbs. Fortunately, most of us in the group have gotten serious about getting back in shape, so I think I’ll eat okay this weekend. Thor and I will miss our walks, but we plan to start again on Monday.
10/07 On the road and off the scale.
10/08 170.8 (when I woke up) (170.6 after walk with Thor) I think I was experiencing keto flu the last couple of days. I drank a lot of fluids, ate plenty of calories that I didn’t try to count (shrimp, ribs, chicken, veggies), and I ate a few bites of extra carbs to combat the tired, yucky feeling I read is a common adjustment at the beginning of a keto regimen. Today, I feel good, and I'm happy to see the scale number continue to go down. Thank you, Heavenly Father!

10/05 155.6 sllooowwly inching off. Worked out good yesterday, ate well and 1.2 liters of water. Hate that I can't get enough water in... I need to get my head in the game. It was absolutely gorgeous yesterday and I was so happy to have a nice day again, fully knowing it is one of last nice days I decided to take full advantage of it. My dog sure loved me for it too lol more then 40 minutes of walking, breathing in the fresh air and just enjoying life. It ended up being a really great day!!

10/06 no weigh in. Last night went out late and woke up this morning and immediatley went out to pick up some stuff up for thanksgiving dinner tomorrow so didn't weigh in before eating. But I did work out, stay under calories and drank 1 liter of water so at least last night's outting won't effect tomorrow's weigh in

10/07 🍁🍃Thanksgiving 🍁🍃 154.8 not too bad. Yesterday wasn't feeling too good so my food wasn't the greatest and I got minimum exercise in (had to shop for thanksgiving) hoping today will go well but I am not sure at the same time...we will see

10/08 155.6 not a bad gain at all!!! I ate so much if not a little of everything but I think that worked in my favor. Rather then taking two plates of food, I had one with a spoonful of everything. That way I tasted everything but my brain registered being full when I was finished. Not too bad at all. Holidays are over and I am officially back at it. I got this!

Looking forward to round 55! Slowly, painfully figuring out posting here.

10/05 131.4-Yay! Finally the workouts and tracking are paying off. Have to say I am enjoying the mix of workouts—stairs with my girlfriends or alone, gym with my husband,Pilates with my girlfriends and walks with my dog. Best part? My workouts are becoming my go to social outlets. I used to default to lunches and happy hours. Tracking and pre-logging have really helped. I like knowing at the beginning of my day what my calories are looking like for the day.
10/06 131.2 lost a little-I’ll take it! Ate well and hit the gym when my family started working my nerves. Absolute right call-25 mins on the elliptical and bodyweight exercises over emotional eating for the win!
10/07 130.8 Day is off to a good start—homemade huevos rancheros (lots of protein), 1 mile walk with Brewster, protein shake for lunch. Heading out for a couple games of bowling, maybe swim a few laps later and then an evening of socializing. I’ve scheduled my workouts for the week, joined a ‘workweek hustle’ walking challenge on Fitbit and will continue to pre log my meals.
10/08 133.4 Clearly the nachos, wings and beer weren’t the best choices this weekend. Hoping a chunk of this is water weight and will see a more 'friendly' number tomorrow morning! Back in the saddle today! HIIT workout this morning and better food choices today! Pretty bad back pain--may need to go a little easier on the workouts this week.

So, I know fluctuations can happen, but 4.6 lbs in two days?? That seems really drastic lol. Anyone know why this might be happening? I have my calories set to 0.5 lbs a week loss to ease myself into it so I've been eating 1900-2000 a day.

If you're just starting out, a large loss is very normal due to loss of water weight. Also, if you had high sodium intake before the challenge and now you're eating foods with less then that could definitely lead to a loss of water retention too. Definitely has for me.

I HAVE to reach my goal this time. I'm going to make it happen.

Day/Weight/Comment

10/5- 186.3- I don't want to get too excited because I'm just going to jinx myself again lol. But I'm happy the scale is going back down again! No rice until I hit my goal! I really want to get to 185.0 though. I've been hovering in the upper 180s for a while now. Gotta get down to the lower 180s. Going to make this round the round I get to it! It's Friday but I'll try to do well today so the scale goes down some more. REALLY want to get to 185.something!

10/6- 185.6- Yay! I got there. Spoke it into existence I guess lol. But that's not my mini goal until it's 185.0 so got a little ways more to go. Going to try to do well this weekend. Not planning on doing anything that would make me go over my calories but weekends. Yesterday was under my calories. Went to chipotle, was pretty darn healthy in my choices. I've changed a lot since the past- I used to get a loaded burrito with cheese and all the works. Now I get a bowl, lots of veggies, no cheese, no tortilla on the side like I used to. Just making good choices for my health. Pretty proud of myself.

10/7- 185.1- Saturday was successful and scale was on my side too! Will try to do well today as well. Looks like I will be under calories today too. I'm almost at my mini goal of 185.0 but I don't want to stop my progress so will continue onto 180.0. Hopefully I can reach it by the next round. We'll see!

10/8- 184.9- Sunday was also very successful. Was under calories, ate PRETTY healthy (even though I had pizza). But I'm very happy. Weekends used to be a huge binge-fest for me. Not anymore! Really trying to beat that habit. So this means I got to my mini-goal of 185, so the next mini-goal is 180! I'm pretty excited and don't want to let the progress go to waste so will continue to do well. Today I'm going to work out (really going to work on my cardio today because I've definitely been slacking and I want to make this part of my lifestyle to help with maintenance once I get to my goal) and definitely staying under calories.

Day/Weight/Comment

10/5 - 81.4kg, only down .2 from yesterday, did eat pretty awful dinner (under cals but high sodium), and didn’t drink a lot of water. Happy to see a loss either way

10/6 - 81.6kg, Friday seems to be a hard day for me (it’s a ‘weekend’ day). I definitely stayed under calories, but ate out and had food that was hard to track. I worked out for 30mins, and drank plenty of water so really disappointed to see this number
10/7 - 81.4kg, I’m glad it’s down from yesterday but I feel like I’m stagnating
10/8 - 81.4kg, I overate a bit yesterday but for the whole week I was good with calories so I’m okay with that. I’ve been going to the gym every day since Friday (nothing crazy, just 30-60mins in the treadmill), however still a little stuck on this number!
10/9 - 81.6kg...... why am I stuck!!! I’ve been counting every day and definitely under. I think I’m having a lot of water retention from exercising ? I’m going to have a today and maybe tomorrow off from the gym

Hi

I am a female, 30 years old, 5' 6"
Just started using the every other day diet on 10/4 upon weighing 175 that morning. I have gained about 40 lbs over the past year and a half... After losing it all in the first six months after baby. I did the same thing after baby #1. After I lost it I gained my pregnancy weight back even while still BF...just minus the baby

! So here we go again.

big water weight drop in weight after my first 500 calorie day. maintenance calorie day

10/06 / 168.4 / -.4
500 calorie day

10/07 / 165.4 / - 3
maintenance calorie day. water weight loss, will probably gain some back. TOM surprised me today with no cramps ECT. I'm pretty excited since I cut out dairy a month ago it really seems to have helped in many ways (less cravings, I can feel "thirsty" better instead if just hungry) including this one.

10/08 / 167.2 / +1.8
500 calorie day. I was hungry last night and I'm hungry today. Already have my food made for the day and planned out so that should help. Big salads all day

Maybe tea with maple syrup this evening. Had a cold all weekend and I am feeling a lot better today, and one of my LO's seems better as well. My older is still sick so we will be staying in and having a relaxing day today.

5'7" 31 year old female

Start Weight: 166lb

Round 54: End Weight 164.2lb (1.8lb loss)

Goal Weight: 140

Goals for the next round will be to be more consistent with my exercise, dial in the nutrition a bit more and try to make it through Thanksgiving without a gain. Any loss will do

Day/Weight/Comment
10/05 - 164.2
10/06 - 164.4 Probably at least some salt from Thursday. Had a good day today. Went for a long walk with hubs and pup and ate ok. Baked pumpkin pie in the evening and had a slice that put me over calories. Also, didn't get my run in... but the walk more than made up for that.
10/07 - 164.6 Thanksgiving dinner today. Not going to stress about counting calories, thanksgiving comes but once a year and we worked too hard cooking and baking not to enjoy it.
10/08 - 166.4 Ugh. Not surprised. Did get my run in yesterday though. Leftovers today but I have a day off work so have decided to do one more day not counting calories. Back to brass tax tomorrow.
