Back again! Hopefully I can make up for December. I maintained which I guess is good, but didn’t lose much. I am looking forward to seeing that 140 decade this month.
Original starting weight - 178
December End Weight - 152.4
January starting weight - 151.2
January goal - 145
Ultimate goal - 135
January 1st - 151.2 good luck everyone!
January 3rd - 156.3 ( up 5.1 pounds) My New Years day has caught up with me. Plus we had a freak blizzard where we live and got trapped in the house for 2 days. I didn't do to bad, but ate way more carbs than usual and it shows. It will be gone within a day or 2, but annoying still. This month I am hitting at least 146!
January 10 th - 150.9 (down 1.5 pounds) Waiting for a woosh. Been here for a couple of days, so we will see what happens next week. I should see that elusive 140 decade.
January 17th - 149.6 ( down 2.8 pounds) was lower yesterday but had a pretty big dinner. Was really hungry and ate even after I was full. Still happy with this number and ready to get to my 5 pound loss for the first time since doing these challenges.

January 1st - 181.4
January 2nd -181.1 So glad to have my new digital scale so that I feel rewarded by "good" days. I am also happy with my decision to weigh every day, it makes me mindful every night that I will be weighing in the morning and affects my choices.
January 3rd - 181.9
January 4th - 181.7
January 5th - 178.7
January 6th - 182.5 Crazy how everything fluctuates. I couldn't believe yesterday, so weighed 5 times. Up 3.8 from yesterday, but I have skating on the docket for today. Perhaps I will discover a trend in something that I am doing, eating, or something that I am not eating with how it affects me.
January 7th - 181.7
January 8th - 183.0 - really don't get the gain this time, I was in really good numbers all week.
January 9th - 182.2 - I seriously expect a really big loss soon. I am just sticking with it. I am working very long hours this week, maybe my body is holding on to it just in case.
January 10th - 179.8 - not getting too excited, I see how I can be almost 4 pounds more the next day. Still, glad to be slightly under 180 at least for today : - )
January 11th - 180.7
January 12th - 182.4 - I was less disciplined in December and still lost weight, yet this month I am being so careful and am just not dropping weight. I have to stick with it.
January 13th - 181.4
January 14th - 181.7
January 15th - 181.6
January 16th - 180.3 - I have seen the 70s twice this month already, but not getting my hopes up just yet. Skating yesterday and again today. I work out every day no matter what, but skating seems to be the difference maker. Maybe because it is so fun and relieves me of stress at the same time as torching lots of calories. 16 days of discipline to lose a 1/2 of a pound is ridiculous.
January 17th - 178.7 - Yay! 2 days of public skating makes such a difference. Wish that I could do it year round, it is the only thing that I enjoy for an entire hour.

Of course you can join! 5lbs in 2 weeks might be a big goal depending on where you are in your journey. Lol I tend to aim for 1-1.5 lbs a week, that way when I crush it I feel AWESOME and if I don’t I usually feel like I got close 😜 Welcome!

January 20th cannot come faster!
As I mentioned earlier in the month I'll be getting back on the Ketogenic train again. We're going to try this again--the right way! I'm mentally, physically, spiritually and nutritionally prepared--yes, that's a lot! My lowest weight was 187 last summer and I've been on a somewhat stagnant position for a while. Now, keto train is ready to go! Choo-Choo!!
I've been eating like a crazy person; kind of like eating my "last meals" "treats"--maybe not for good--just not having the junk for a long time. Almond and Coconut flour are going to be my new best friends! I'm excited! This is the year I am finally going to get the victory!
P.S. I can tell ya right now my weigh-in won't be great but, that's okay I'm not going to be stuck for long! Let's do this!
Weigh-in: Jan 20th
***Extended Fast Starts Jan 20th through (possibly) Jan 27th. 7 whole day fast. My goal is to reach at least 5 days. My fast comprises of: Detox/Tea tox/, Vitamins, Electrolytes, Bone Broth and the occasional Coconut Oil (1 tbsp).*** Lots of Water!!
Afterward, I go right into the Ketogenic Diet...Low carb, moderate protein and fat. No Keto rash will stop me this time!!
Prayer Hands. I'll keep you all posted of my progress...

Lol you hit your five pounds! Looks like you are on your way to crushing your goal.

•Lose 5 lbs in January 2019•
December 2018 - Lost 2.4lbs 😃
Original starting wgt: 253
January starting weight: 178 (fluid retention)
January goal: 170
❄Updating every day through January until completely back on track.
•Monday Updates•📌1/01- 178 - Oh yeah, midnight eating and a little champagne. My weight is between 174 & 175 this is fluid.1/12 - 173.2 - Yesterday 29g carbs 23g net carbs
1/102 - 177.2
1/03 - 175.8
1/04 - 177.6 - Felt miserable all day yesterday with some type of weird allergy cold again. Exercised, ate dinner and went to bed later than usual. Now gut is upset. What the what?!
1/05 -177.2 - Had no appetite most of the day yesterday, runny nose, gut in an uproar, whole 9 yards of misery. Took some cold medicine late afternoon and then proceeded to overeat cookies.😦
1/06 - 178.2 - Still with the carb craziness!
📌 1/07 - 177.2 - Coming back down. This "allergy cold" still hanging on. I will be staying under 20 grams of carbs today. (That should say net carbs.)
1/08 - 174.4 - 18g net carbs, 16g net is the plan today.
1/09 - 174.8 - I did better than planned yesterday, 19g carbs, 12g net. Today's plan is 16g/13g net.
1/10 - 174 - 20g carbs, 17g net carbs.
1/11- 172.8 - Yesterday 15g carbs, 12g net carbs.
1/13 - 175.2 - 21g carbs, 17g net carbs
📌 1/14/ - 176.2 - 63g carbs, 57g net carbs - black truffle & olive oil kettle chips was the culprit. Did not want to resist them.😏
1/15 - 173.2 - on track
1/16 - 173.8 - on track - 45g carbs 19g net carbs. Since I've had a couple of days of eating something (nuts or those chips!) after my fasting hours began, I've changed my eating window to end a couple of hours later. It seems to be working, but my early weigh ins will read a higher number at the 12th-13th hr fasting point as opposed to the 15th-16th hour.
1/18 - 172.2 - Mmm, maybe I will see a new decade at the end of the month.📌1/21
📌1/28
❄1/312 -
@dawnbgethealthy, and @Birder165, Congrats on entering a new decade!
@SamanthaLouiseMence, Congrats on reaching your 5lb loss! "What is going on?" I think your body is saying the same and trying to catch up a bit.
@tramaine_21, Wishing you much success with your fasting and return to keto!5 -
Thank you, @tiabirdie56 ! I have to keep my wits about me at night and stay out of the kitchen.
I'm so impressed with your new low weights! It's very inspiring to see you do so well.3 -

I stress eat, too. Just hang in there and keep going! I find checking in more often helpful when I'm feeling like I'm struggling. It helps me stay reigned in even if I have a few bad days.
I hope whatever is stressing you gets resolved. {HUGS}1 -
@SamanthaLouiseMence FIVE pounds lost! I bet there's a lower number there for you any day now.
It's so nice having you with us here.2 -
