Well I've gone down a bit which is great but I'm not keto and I actually don't think I will be until the New Year in reality as I know having taken such a long time off I will be ages getting back into being a 'fat burner'. With lots of visitors staying over Christmas and a New Year away I'm not actually going to stay Keto and no good kidding myself and then feeling like a failure. So what I'm going to do is just try to loose a bit and maintain over this rapidly approaching madness!2 -

I've only lost one pound over the past month, but Thanksgiving threw me off. My waist is down to 30", and I can't wait for it to be back in the 20s (I was 27.5"-28" at my most fit). 19 pounds to goal weight! My parents arrive Tuesday evening for the holidays, so I'm currently planning the best ways to stay on track (aside from some planned off-keto at some amazing restaurants). My goal is to still be under 160 at the end of the year.
On another note, in late November I ordered my matron of honor dress for my sister's wedding in May! They only had it in red in the shop (pictured), but the color I ordered is more a dark dusty rose (my sister picked the color, I got to pick the dress, and this was the winner). Since ordering, I've lost 1/2" from my waist and 1.5" from my belly. I think it will look even better when I pick it up in March!

Today's Weight: 140.61kg/310.0lbs
Yesterday I had my lowest weight in at least 5-6 years. 140.3/309.4lbs. That felt pretty great to see. While I don't expect to breach the 136kg/299.8lbs threshold by NYD, I will hit it eventually. If I hit it early, awesome, and I'll keep on keto'ing on. If not, I'll keep on keto'ing on.
Good luck to everyone on their journey to healthy!2 -

Oh boy, so close to Xmas, so much to do still.
You know, I don't think I was this light since under age 12 at least. I still have some clothes from age 13 which are a size or two larger than what currently fits me. (*cough* Bit of a hoarder *cough*) I can't remember what age I was at this weight last. Wouldn't have been full height. Always been overweight.1 -

I went up just a bit, but that's better than what I was expecting. I haven't been to the gym in a week. It seems there is a function, concert, recital, or some other thing I need to play taxi service for every day!

I had a bunch of work functions this week and I've got so many compliments from folks who haven't seen me for a while- felt amazing!!!
When I first started Keto, the only exercise I was willing to do at almost 250 lbs was swimming. 20lbs later, I started walking on a treadmill and very slow jogging. This week I logged 7 workouts including a total of 17 miles running, 25 miles biking (single ride) and 2 miles swimming. For me, being able to do this, and being fit and stronger is what maters more than the number on the scale. However, I can see my fitness numbers getting better with every pound that I drop. My goal is to smash December's goal by taking advantage of the Holiday's to add more exercising time.
Happy Keto3 -

GW: 194 - 225
Dec goal: 265 (or lower)…I am hoping to have a net loss of at least 5 lbs (the net loss of 1 lb in Nov is rather underwhelming and depressing). The 1.2 gain is worse. But. With that said, I am still sitting comfortably in a size that i haven't in years. and my "infinity" belt is having spots used that have never been used. so … that is good. and a 0 gain/loss week over week when i have been consistently higher? i'll take it

I'm checking in for the first time this month here, though I've been tracking all month. I just finished updating the spreadsheet. You can see where I let go a little. HA! This last week, I have not been too worried about sticking to Keto, but enjoyed a cookie or two each day. We have been so busy with the holidays (plus both of my kids' birthdays are this month, plus children on both sides of my and my husband's families also have birthdays this month) that we have gone out to eat several times this week and I used it as an excuse to get the things I normally wouldn't. The nice thing is, I don't feel bad about it. My clothes are a little tighter, but I know I'll have no trouble losing it again. My goal weight stayed the same because, honestly, I just want to drop one more pant size and if I end the month around 141, that means I didn't put on a bunch of weight from the holidays. I'm taking some time off work and plan to be pretty strict with myself while sitting at home.
Happy Holidays to everyone. Next week's weigh-in I'll be back on track, so I'm not super worried. Size 8, here I come!!

Pushing for 190. I briefly touched 190.9 a few days ago but I am hoping to hit 190.0 before the 30th. Doubt it is possible but I will keep doing what I am doing 1800-2000 avg calories per day.3 -

Just a quick visit to let you all know I've added the tab for 2019 to the Spreadsheet. If you've been updating it regularly throughout December you should still be on it. If anyone would like to log on the Spreadsheet, please feel free to add yourself to a column.
Here is the link again.
