I had to eat out unexpectedly yesterday and didn't stick to keto, so a little bump up on the scale today. I am not upset about this at all, as I know I want to make keto my WOE, and I know there will be those random one-offs where I may not be able to eat a strict keto meal. When I was heavily involved in the keto community, so many people were purists, and to admit this would've meant lots of lectures. And I used to be very, very strict on keto in the past, but then it never lasted. I was always in constant fear of carbs, so much so that I started following a near-zero carb lifestyle, which was not sustainable for me in the least. I am not doing it this time around. I would say 90% of the time, I can and will easily stick to keto eating, and I am learning to be okay with not being perfect 10% of the time. I think that may be the key for my success moving forward. In any case, back to the regularly scheduled program today!1 -
Happy Friday, everyone! Hope you're all feeling energized and motivated to stick to your goals today!

Big hugs, I had a wobble from being sick and struggled to get back on it. Tried to be kind to myself and managed to get back on track1 -

Great advice, @pinkfairy88. I agree. We have to be kind to ourselves. I wasn't yesterday, so I am trying to get back on track today.1 -
Moving to weekly weigh-ins since I can't handle the daily fluctuations after yesterday's weigh-in put me up a pound after I was so ecstatic to meet my Happy Scale goal the day before. I'm also starting to add in more exercise, and I always maintain or gain when I first start a new exercise program. My weekly weigh-ins will be on Mondays. Hope to see more updates from others in the meantime!

That's good to reflect on how it makes you feel and make adjustments. Hopefully it will help keep you motivated and achieve your goals 😊1 -
Thanks Pink fairy... You are right of course 😊1

Struggled to get back on track following sickness but I'm guessing there was quite a bit of water weight from antibiotics and sickness. Dropped over 4lb since last check in. Need to keep at it to get to 149! Here we go!3 -

Almost thought I would reenter the 160s....so glad I didn't!!1 -
Thanks so much! I didn't weigh in today because it was obvious that I was still retaining water from a rigorous workout this weekend, but I will come back and update later in the week or next Monday.

Not sure what happened, but scale went up into 154’s. Whacking it back down LOL
THANK YOU for this challenge! It’s really helping me as I near the end of my weight loss journey❣️2 -
So happy to hear this is helping you, Maddie! Great job getting back down from the 154s! I have a horrible habit of seeing an upward bump and falling off track (especially when I have been doing everything right), so you are my inspiration for the day.2
-
Thank you @futuredrbri ❣️
Me too, actually. But I have learned the easiest time to correct is right away! (Much of it is water AND I’m not as hungry because I just ate more than usual!)
I’m glad I can be of help, especially for you, as this challenge is JUST what I need right now.
What helps me the most: big breakfast (about 1/3+ of my daily calories.)
And raw, unsalted nuts when I’m truly hungry but almost out of calories for the day.
Walking- daily
Water. Water. Water...2 -

Heading in the right direction. I've never been this low before that I have record of or I can pin point. Probably in my teenage years but not sure. So I feel like I'm waiting to wake up and be about 10lbs heavier with someone going, only joking! Happy Thursday guys!2 -

Hi, I’d love to join. My current goal is 155 so I can be in the “healthy weight” category and out of “overweight”, but then I’ll be happily fighting my way out of the 150s as well! I’ve not really seen any losses for almost two weeks now, possibly hormonal or maybe bc of a recent dietary change. I know the scale will show my hard work eventually, so I’m just trying to stay positive.
36yo
5’6”
Highest Weight: 223, started in June
Current Weight: 157
Goal Weight: 130
Way of Eating (WOE): CICO, with an aim of 100g of protein a day because I find high protein very filling. I aim for 15k steps a day and plenty of strength training through the week. I run when I can, which is hard right now for various reasons, but intend to get back to it early April. I like the extra calories it gives me! 😋
Anticipated weigh-in frequency: I weigh daily, but report on Sundays.4 -
@SFJULES66
Thank you so much! I appreciate your response & encouragement!
I looked back & I’ve my avg weight is down 0.1 lb since Jan 1st! My actual weight is still down 0.6 lbs. trends certainly help one relax & realize all is not lost!
I’m realizing this might be the sustainable weight for me. I’m going to “keep on, going on” as you did, and see how things go!
