MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 58 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5’ 5” TALL.
ROUND 23 FOR ME.
“I DON’T STOP WHEN I’M TIRED - I STOP WHEN I’M DONE”
Goals:
Weight:
Short Term Goal: Lose 2 pounds this round.
First Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 175 by Valentine’s Day 💗💗💗 I hope to achieve this by losing about 1.5 pounds per week (or 2 lbs per round).
My Second Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 155 by my Birthday on May 10th by sticking to my plan to lose 1.5 pounds per week (or 2 lbs per round).
My third Long Term Weight Goal: To weigh 145 by the 4th of July using the same plan as above.
Exercise:
During each Weight goal I plan on increasing my walking (back to what I did when I was on a downward trend). I also want to increase my cardio and regularly use weights to help firm my flabby arms.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/13 183.4 Good day yesterday. Reached over 10,000 steps. Aerobic Dancing almost 20 minutes. Under calorie & carbs. Felt strong. Did not battle too much hunger. Busy work day today so the steps will be easy. The water may be challenging, but I will try hard to incorporate it. Good luck everyone on this round!
01/14 183.4 Thought it would be lower but I’m okay with this. Lots of NSV’s this past week.
01/15 186.2 Emergency situation with my business requiring local police, fire department, gas provider and then state police. Damn neighbor! Everyone is okay, thankfully, but let’s just say my meals were local restaurant runs yesterday, and I certainly ate my emotions in the form of some bingeing as well. Chaos around me and I feel very alone in handling it without my husband. This will be a long restoration process. I will share more details later but just too busy this morning with appointments this afternoon with insurance adjusters. I hope I can get a handle on myself and the situation today and even fit in a bit of a walk this evening to get my mindset back on track. This is the worst thing ever for me!

Hello! GrandmaJackie thanks for starting this challenge! I am excited it's to get started. I am late for round 65 but have been keto strong since 1/8.8

@deepwoodslady, Donna, the situation sounds frightening! I'm glad to hear you and everyone else are physically okay. I hope you can get a handle on your emotional stress very soon. {{{BigHugs}}}💓4

@amfmmama I have noticed that when I scroll up the page, the WOO is right where my finger hits the screen. I generally catch it when it happens but it is very annoying in any case! I noticed a WOO earlier in my reading (I didn’t read or post on Monday) but I don’t think it was yours. In this case, a WOOHOO would have been more appropriate than an OHNO.3

@StefanieBerger88 Do you clean your humidifier with bleach? I know my little one grows mold if I don’t.2

I forgot to add my name is background 😁
My name is Marcel. I am a 32 year old woman and 5'4" SW 221. My goal is to lose 5 lbs on this round. I have been doing Keto off and on for about 2 years. After about the second week I tend to give up so I am hoping this community will help me stay accountable. 🤞🏽🙌🏽❤️✅. I am doing Keto and Intermittent fasting 18:6 and it seems to be working as I am down 5.8 lbs!! Whoohoo!! This week will be my second week then starting on Monday, 1/21 I will begin fasted cardio (3-4 times each week). Hoping that will increase the speed of my weight loss. 🤞🏽🤞🏽
SW: 221 CW: 215.8
My 1st goal weight is 195‼️
2nd goal is 175‼️
3rd goal is 150‼️
1/13-218.6

1/15-215.8- Today is going well my fasting period ends at 1:36pm CST then I will have my fatty Keto breakfast that I love so much!! I have to keep reminding myself to drink lots of water 💦 since Keto makes to hella thirsty 🙌🏽😁17 -

Yep, @quiltingjaine, I've heard that about humidifiers, that you need to be scrupulous in keeping them free of mold so that they don't spread the mold through the air. @StefanieBerger88, I hope you figure out a cause!4 -
@tlgale Do you weigh or measure your foods? I know I had relaxed doing that but started up again last week and started losing again. We tend to underestimate what we’re eating and over estimate our calorie burn. Just sayin’5

25th Round for me: Female 65, height 5’
In for another round. I think I'm back to some consistency after subbing work in Nov. and holiday food. Hoping to see a solid loss.Round 39 (1st for me) – SW 163, -.2Goal this round: To get out of the 160’s or at least consistently not above 160. I was down here in Oct. and having so much trouble getting back there. Right now even ½ lb. per round would seem great. My short term goal is to be down at least 6 lb. by the end of March. That is just .8/Round but for me would be great progress.

Day/Weight/Comment
01/13 – 162.2 – Thought I had a loss in Round 64 but actually a big blip up and then went down but in the end – a tiny gain. Shows the value of this challenge, I see what’s really happening.
01/14 – 162 – Yesterday not a bad day calorie wise but very sedentary. Off to the gym here shortly and a busy day.
01/15 – 161.8 – So happy with this. A little “finishing supper late” when I got home at 10:00 last night as I had to rush out the door to a meeting but quit before it became a snackfest.

SW = 160
CW = 155
RGW = 151
UGW = 135
Round 64 loss = 5lbs
1/13 = 152.8
1/14 = 153.9 Unsurprising. Yesterday was an unnatural one day drop. Also, last night had a couple of glasses of wine and pizza when friends came over. But totally fine. I ordered thin crust, veggie pizza. I was over my calorie goal, but acutally still under 1800 for the day, so not a terribly damaging "indulgence" day.
1/15 = 153.1 A good day. It's been super rainy this week and the lack of sun is messing with my moods. Feeling low energy, but still trying.

Oh, @deepwoodslady, I'm so sorry you are facing such a traumatic event! So many good wishes from me and, I'm sure, from everyone here. We're here for you if you want an ear (a whole lotta ears!)
I find a walk or other exercise can really help clear my mind. Hugs and support to you!6 -
@deepwoodslady, oh no that’s horrible honey, ***hugs*** like @puttyputty said lots of ears for you here! Walks even small ones helps me too!3
-
Dear Stuckup, errr I mean @texasfarmer, you made me chuckle. Your headache could be from dropping carbs too rapidly. Perhaps cut back on carbs slowly as you do CICO.
@amfmmama One Meal A Day3 -
I’m in! Almost 60 yo active female. Love being outdoors and working out. I’m plant based but don’t like being different, so it’s hard. I’m in this for the long haul so I feel energetic and if I lose weight along the way because I’m sticking to the plan, that would be great! Struggle with sugar when I’m sad, lonely, tired, or when I have a headache. Clean eating makes me feel so mush better, but when I fall, I fall hard.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
1/12 129.5
::::::::::::::::::
01/13 129.5 Fourth day in the 129.x range. Today DD#2 turns 46. She was 3 weeks early, according to the doctor. At 7# 9 oz, I’m glad she didn’t wait! The doctor thought it was false labor and told Carl to give me 3 aspirins and a cup of strong tea. Before I finished the tea, the cramping was about every 3 minutes. Carl called the doctor and the doctor said the emergency room would be waiting for me! Someone was at the door to whisk me away while Carl took DD#1 to the sitter 2 blocks away. By the time he got back beautiful DD#2 had arrived. 21 minutes from door to done! I always thought it was interesting that DD#1 was born at 5:08 and DD#2 was born 5 hours and 8 minutes later (plus 2 years and 9 days.) I often wondering what time #3 would have been born, had there been a #3. My mind is weird! Happy birthday
**01/14 128.5 I don’t think I posted yesterday. I was busy in the kitchen all day getting ready for company for dinner.
01/15 129.5 We had friends for dinner last night. I tried 2 new recipes one for Garlicky Butter Parmesan Pork Chops and one for Blood Orange Rum Cake, both Keto. Then I also made the ketofied version of Boston Market butternut squash and the not even close to Keto dinner rolls I always used to make. I think it’s been 2 years since I made those. I ate 3 of them, in the past I would have eaten lots more. I’m still (barely) in nutritional ketosis so time to get back on track. Less than 2 qt of water.11 -
@deepwoodslady Donna, Sending prayers, hugs and love!3

Someone mentioned that they thought this round was less chatty than last. Since I have them both starred, it was easy to look. In 10 days of Round 64 there were 946 messages. So far in 2.5 days, there are 358 messages.
Since I seem to have not posted an update yesterday morning, I had 10 pages to catch up!
Love it all - chatty or not!9 -
