    3/10 - 174.2 - An early weigh in as far as my fasting schedule. I'm experimenting going back to 12/12 for a week or two for a little break.

Carbs were: salad spaghetti squash, pesto, peanut butter (1.5 TB) YES to vegetables!

    I will continue to weigh daily throughout March. It usually keeps me accountable from having that second helping, knowing that I will be weighing in the morning. I also like to look for trends, so daily weighing.
    58 years old, 5'3"
    Oct 27.18 joined MFP Start weight 191
    March goal 169.3 - 5 pound loss, and hopefully into a new decade finally.

    February loss was 1.9 pounds
    February 28 - 174.8 - burned off mega calories yesterday too, but still up in weight this morning. Low on sleep.

    March 01 - 174.3 - I hope for March to be better than February.
    March 02 - 173.7 - Unbelievable, I was so disappointed with February, being so diligent about burning lots of calories, eating carefully, and barely losing weight - that last night I had (in defiance) a giant steak, corn, sour cream, potatoes etc., way over my calorie allotment. I truly expected to see a gain this morning.
    March 03 - 174.3 - So the steak dinner from Friday shows up?
    March 04 - 173.9 - skating yesterday
    March 05 - 174.9 - no reason to be up other than short on sleep. Skating today, so hope to see a drop tomorrow morning.
    March 06 - 173.6 - yay for skating, I am skating again today too.
    March 07 - 173.3 - again, yay for skating. I am working out of town today, and taking my skates with me because there is an arena there. There is only a few weeks left of the skating season : - (
    March 08 - 171.4 - I have learned now not to get too excited about this, I had a big dinner yesterday so I expect it to catch up with me. Slow metabolism once we get older. I did burn off a lot of calories yesterday skating and other stuff though. Lowest weight I have been so far, but then I had one low day in February which didn't last too.
    March 09 - 172.7 - I skated 3 times at 3 different places yesterday (1,095 calories burned), but I did expect to see a gain because I had a good dinner on Thursday that hadn't yet showed up. Running monthly total: loss 1.4 lb
    March 10 - 174.7 - argh! At least there is skating today. I get it if I don't burn 1,000+ calories that I might not lose anything, but I at least don't expect to gain when I only burn off 300-400. Cruel. Throughout all of this I always have calories to spare. Hoping for a better number tomorrow. I so badly want to get into the 60s.
    March 11 - 172.3 - I'll take it. Big skating calorie burn yesterday.
    March 12 - 173.9 - I stick to 1200-1300 calories, aerobics, but if I don't get in at least an hour of skating I am up on the scale. Skating during my work break today. It is really hard to lose weight otherwise for me.
    March 13 - 172.5 - I actually matched my calories in with my calories out yesterday! It is starting to look like my way forward will be to burn 3,500-7,000 calories per week to lose 1 pound per week. That is pretty time consuming, but it seems like it is the only way that I can lose anything. Skating today ; - )
    March 14 - 172.3 - Would be nice to see a woosh soon, I was able to get in 140 minutes of skating yesterday, mega calorie burn, 1,420. I had 1,100 calories left to eat if I wanted to the last 2 days, but I didn't. No skating anywhere today, but the arenas will be open 5 days a week during March break. I am really determined to bust some fat.



    Running monthly total: loss 2 lbs

    Happy Sunday, everyone!

    I missed checking in last Sunday as we went camping. Spring isn't quite here yet in North Georgia, but it is in South Georgia so we went there for a long weekend.

    Things are moving ever so slowly, but I am hanging in there. No loss to report, but no gain either. Body shape keeps changing so that is positive.

    Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999.

    Lowest since 1991: 194.4 November 25, 2018.

    Original starting weight: 243 in 2015.

    MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233.

    Goal: 180 in however long it takes.

    Weekly Averages:

    February 18 - February 24: 196.5.
    I missed averaging the last 7 days.
    March 4 - March 10: 196.5

    Loss for March: 0.

    MFP Loss: 36.5 lbs.

    Total cumulative loss since mid 2015: 46.5 lbs.

    Move more, eat less.

    Same here. My weight is just steady, nothing to report really. Dodging between (mid)180s/(Lower)190s...I feel like I'm toning but I'm not losing. It's frustrating! I thought on this keto diet I was going to continue to lose substantially, weekly but, I guess the honeymoon is over.

    I do realize that I need to adjust my fat count and maybe lower my carb a bit more. I need some Nutritional Yeast (B vitamins), don't want to make the mistake I made last time. No keto rash for me!

    Happy to see a loss this week! Though I wanted to lose more this week, a loss is still a loss :D
    I wasn’t able to exercise at all this week, except for one day. I stuck to my diet and forced myself to eat clean at all times.

    Thinking of starting intermittent fasting...as I have an event coming and want maximum results...
