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.

5/3 126.0 Flying to Oklahoma this evening. DH cut the area between 2 toes last night. We went to the ER around midnight and got home about 4AM. I got up at 6:45 to deliver my pot garden to the neighbor for care while we’re gone. Laid back down but didn’t sleep as DH started a load of wash. Got up delivered cat to sitter at 9:15. Bags are not packed - his job. Dragging his feet and I’m having an anxiety attack.
5/4 123.5 False low, I’m sure. Instead of weight around 5AM, very late weigh in - woke up after 10am. Arrived last night, needed some food. Waffle House bacon cheese burger, no bun, no fries with lettuce tomato and some pickles. I was exhausted and don’t even remember getting in bed!
5/5 120.0 I didn’t drink enough water or coffee yesterday so probably be dehydrated. DH’s foot was hot and red so trip to Urgent Care first thing (noon?)yesterday followed by lunch out (fast food) then DD#1 and I were out and about until about 8PM so she could find dresses for the graduations. Helping her get back to Keto while we’re here.
5/6 125.0 Okay, I thought those were a couple of false lows. DD had changed location of scale so now it is back in it’s old spot and weight is 👍. I’m good with this. Woke up early with scratchy throat and plugged nose.
5/7 124.5 I feel miserable. I wish my head would explode. Went to bed at 11:30, woke up at 2:30 and again around 4. Nose running like a faucet so I got up. Took something for the headache which has improved a bit. We are at DD’s with no car so forced rest. YAY! Maybe I’ll binge watch something on Netflix. And drink LOTS OF WATER. This will pass, just feeling sorry for myself.
5/8 123.0 Feels as if I got a decent night’s sleep so I feel a little better. DGS’s graduation tonight.11 -
I am a 50 year old 5'5" woman. I am trying to get healthier to avoid diabetes and all of the problems that come from being overweight.
I have found this challenge to be both rewarding and frustrating! Looking at my weight daily has been a real eye opener to see all of the fluctuations and how a high carb day will affect me and the loss for 2-3 days after. I have been participating in this challenge since Round 40.
Start Weight Feb 2018 - 202
Next Goal - 170 I will get there.

Round 75 - SW - 179.4 EW - 178.2 - Average weight over 10 days - 178.4
May 3 - 175.2 - I started swim lessons last night again. I haven’t been in the water since my last set ended in August. This is a stroke improvement class and this instructor is probably the best I have had. Weight is funnily low today, not sure how much I trust it, but it was nice to see.
May 4 - 179.4 - I don’t believe my scales anymore. I have changed the battery and the fluctuations are still a bit insane. I guess I’ll have to break down and get another one. I was expecting to be a bit up today though because yesterday was not a good eating day.
May 5 - 176.2 - I had a good day yesterday. Stayed within my calorie goals and got a little exercise in.
May 6 - 175.6 - had a good day yesterday calories were a bit over and sugar intake was definitely higher than normal.
May 7 - 176.2 - another fairly decent day yesterday. I need to buy some groceries today and get other things besides carbs in the house.
May 8 - 176.4 - I was hungry all evening last night I don’t know why. I managed to stay within calories but it was a struggle.12 -

I managed to put on 15lbs in under two weeks. How is no mystery. Non stop binge eating. Arrrgh!
... I HOPE I DID THIS RIGHT BY PASTING MY PREVIOUS POST AND ADDING TODAY'S INFO

WEIGHT LOSS BUT NO FAT LOSS. I'M SWOLLEN BECAUSE MY 10 DAY+ BINGE INCLUDED PLENTY OF FOODS I'M EITHER ALLERGIC OR SENSITIVE TOO. STILL, I'M UNDER THE OBESITY MARK AND DOWN TO OVER WEIGHT. I'D LIKE TO BELIEVE THAT MINUS THE SWELLING I DID NOT EXCEED 170LBS. MY JEANS WERE UNCOMFORTABLY TIGHT TODAY. THIS KEPT ME COGNIZANT OF MY CALORIE CONSUMPTION.

UP A LITTLE BUT I WEIGHED AFTER DINNER ON A FULL STOMACH. RIGHT NOW THE OBJECTIVE IS TO GET BACK TO WEIGHING DAILY.

WEIGHT TAKEN JUST BEFORE BED BECAUSE IT SIMPLY SLIPPED MY MIND. I'M WORKING MY WAY BACK TO DOING THIS DAILY. HOPEFULLY IT WILL SOON BE SECOND NATURE AGAIN.

I'M 31LBS ABOVE WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE MY MAX MID DAY WEIGHT. 🤪 THIS IS ABOUT WHERE I WAS LAST FALL WHILE TAKING SOME SERIOUSLY BODY FAT INDUCING PRESCRIPTION MEDS.
SHAME ON ME HAVING NEARLY LOST ALL OF THE DRUG RELATED FAT ONLY TO UNDO IT BY BINGE EATING. 😵 I WILL GET MY ACT TOGETHER . I LOOK LIKE ALL HELL IS BREAKING LOSE IN THESE TIGHT CLOTHES. MANY OF MY BEST SLACKS DON'T FIT AT ALL.
I WILL NEVER GIVE IN TO A LARGER SIZE. MY VANITY RULES ME SO I MUST LOOK GOOD. 👗 SIZE 2 OR 22, WELL FITTED CLOTHING IS WHERE STYLE BEGINS. 🤩 THESE THIGHS ARE GOING DOWN!

Dropping the water retention built up from allergies and all the excess salt intake. I'm not eating better but I'm also not binge eating when I eat too much. Glad to see the 170's behind me.

Round 76 (my 8th)Round 69 TL: -3.6 pounds 360- 356.4OSW 382
Round70 TL -3.6 pounds 356.4 - 352.8
Round 71 -3.8 pounds 352.8-349
Round 72 -1.8 pounds 349-347.2
Round 73 -3.6 pounds 347.2-343.6
Round 74 -4.4 pounds 343.6-339.2
Round 75 -3.4 pounds 339.2-335.8
RSW 335.8
If all goes well this round I will be within fractions of a pound from a 50 pound loss. My goal this round is to get as close to that marker as possible.
05/03 335.8 Staying the same is fine with me. I had a higher sodium day yesterday and am having back spams since late last night. My energy level is back up, which will be nice once my back lets up.
05/04 334.8 There’s the after tom drop. My back is doing a lot better after a day of tlc and I’ll probably take it easy again today. Today is family movie day and I’m hopeful of limiting or even avoiding the popcorn this time.
05/05 333.8 My usual continued drop after tom, sometimes the whole drop stays, sometimes I have a bounce back up. I guess I’ll see what the next few days bring.
05/06 333 Another nice drop, but trends suggest that I will have a bounce back up in a day or two.
05/07 333.6 I’m not surprised by the bounce up I was expecting it. I was also over hungry yesterday and had to work not to just eat and eat. I shifted today to have a little more protein and see if I can have a smoother day.
05/08 333.6 I’ll see another drop in a day or two as I was more active yesterday.

05/03 …..197.4 ….. 1708 Calories In / 2245 Calories Out. 83 Net Carbs. 8243 Total Steps & 3.49 Total Miles. IF 16:8. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 45 minutes. I did 14 minutes on my brother’s elliptical (he lives next door).
05/04 ….. 196.2….. Whoosh, there it is! Finally the deficits are rearing their LOVELY head! Yesterdays Stats: 1384 Calories In / 2223 Calories out. 29 Net Carbs 8407 Total Steps & 3.56 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 4 hours & 50 minutes. Finally I’m off the 3 hour per night streak!!!!
05/05 ….. 195.0….. Yay. I had lots of exercise & movement yesterday & its paying off! Yesterdays Stats: 1283 Calories In / 2551 Calories out. 27 Net Carbs. 15,434 Total Steps & 6.53 Total Miles. IF 16:8. 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept a glorious 5 hours & 47 minutes which I really needed & I woke up refreshed.
05/06 ….. 195.0….. Travel Today. I plan on making some good choices but will enjoy my day . Yesterday we met friends at a DQ about 20 miles away & I couldn’t resist a blizzard. I ordered a small & was very careful the rest of the day, so I will do the same today. So far, it did not show up on the scale. Calories In 1840 / Calories Out 2440. 114 Net Carbs. 10,309 Total Steps & 4.36 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I charged my fitbit so I am unsure of sleep hours but it wasn’t much. I just want to say that what I am most thankful for today is that the DQ is 20 miles from me! The blizzard of the month is Cookie Jar & it's amazing. The last thing I'd need is to have DQ right around the corner so I am very grateful. Enjoy your week everyone!
05/07 ….. 195.6….. After Travel Weigh In. Not bad for a bloating high sodium Chinese buffet. I did not get 2nd’s & tried to remain pretty careful for the rest of the day. I’m a little confused about my calorie expenditure. Fitbit puts me at having burned 3430 calories & that seems too much considering I was riding in car quite often. I did walk a lot in stores but……. I put my fitbit on my shoelaces to get credit for my walking. Could this have made it incorrect? Other Stats: Best Guess calories In 2770/ 3430 Calories Out (???), 179 Net Carbs. 10,425 Total Steps & 4.41 Total Miles. I did not Fast. 11/13 Fitbit Step Hours due to car ride. I ended up with a terrible runny nose & sneezing cold by last night. I slept 6 hours & 45 minutes & my body was grateful. I did elliptical for 37 minutes after returning home which burned another 314 Calories.
05/08 ….. 193.8….. Whoosh! Losing all the bloat after the Chinese buffet! However, I’m a bit surprised since the movement yesterday was almost non-existent. All desk work & I’m incredibly sick with terrible head cold making me dizzy dizzy dizzy. However, still trying very hard to reach my May 10th goal. Adding more water today if life turns out okay here at work. Yesterdays stats: 1114 Calories In / 2211 Calories Out. 41 Net Carbs which was mainly spaghetti squash with marinara sauce. 7083 Total Steps & 3.0 Total Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Steps. I slept 5 hours & 38 minutes. Happy hump day!
05/09 ….. …..

05/11 ….. …..
05/12 ….. ….. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL OF YOU LADIES WITH CHILDREN AND/OR PETS. I WILL BE CELEBRATING MY BIRTHDAY & MOTHER’S DAY TODAY WITH MY CHILDREN. A SPECIAL DINNER HAS BEEN PLANNED FOR ME.

05/03 146.4 I’m going to try my best this weekend. No planned dinners out so that should help.

05/05 146.8
05/06 146.8 super happy with that for a Monday!
05/07 146.8 I’m ok with this. Still happy my weekend went pretty well. Ate well yesterday and plan to today.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/03--207.6 Lowest weight in about 3 years. Went to trainer yesterday...my trainer complimented me on my strong back, I felt really good. Hubby and I practiced our dancing last night.
05/04--207.6 Going for a run today, The weather is supposed to be great here today so later hubby and I will be taking the dog for a long walk and then going out for dinner.
05/05--207.4 Perfect weather in the PNW yesterday for a run...ran for 4.5 miles. I went out for dinner yesterday and ate something that I have a food sensitivity to so I expect a bump up in the scale over the next couple of days, but I made a conscious decision to eat the food so I'm okay with that. Went to the gym this morning. My husband was impressed that he could see the definition in my shoulder muscles as I was tying my shoes...it's funny how a compliment about something like shoulder muscles could make my day.
05/06--208.5 There's the jump I was expecting. I woke up with a tummy ache and felt heavy, so I knew the weight gain was because of me eating food I was sensitive to, but back to my non-sensitive food eating today. Doctor's appointment today and run later today.
05/07--208.3 Ran 2 miles yesterday, was going to run longer but it was a little too humid. Trainer tonight.
05/08--208.7 Sore from trainer yesterday and was so hungry when I got home. Snacked and didn't drink a lot of water today. Will make sure to get water in today. Run today and then yoga.

Next sub-GW: 182lb (13 stone)
Round Goal (my first round!): -3lb
(My scales round to the nearest pound)
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 - 187lb - had take out the night before so this is actually a 1lb gain on the previous day.
05/04 - 186lb - back to what I was on 05/02 which makes sense
05/05 - 185lb - unexpected but yay! Had a good day with lots of walking yesterday and made a delicious (for my cooking anyway) low-calorie adapted Moussaka.
05/06 - 185lb - reasonably good day yesterday, stayed well within calorie goal and went for a walk.
05/07 - 185lb (though the scales jumped between 184 and 185 a couple of times so can't be too far off!). Good day yesterday again, made it to the gym though my back isn't too happy about that. Eating out this evening so we will see what that does to this number...
05/08 - 187lb - yep I deserve that. Massive meal, cider, loads of salt and I forgot to weigh in before I drank half a pint of water... It'll drop in a day or two but yeahhhh that's a bump.

Hi 10-Dayers!!! Looks like you've all made great progress since I was here last.
I took a break from weighing daily after starting a new job with irregular hours. Was travelling a lot and just tired of looking at the same up and down 8 pounds since February. A foot injury slowed me down, but kept doing as much as I could, so even though was @ a weight plateau turns out I've managed to lose an additional 8 inches since then. Muscle really does weigh more, lol ....
Jumping back in because I've finally settled into my new schedule and recently committed to a self-inflicted "beach body boot camp" mentality between now and July 3rd. Know the daily check-in will help keep me motivated and on track .... Happy Summer FitFam!!

I've been reading a bit about the dangers of obsessive tracking (which I've been doing for 4 years, even through gaining periods) and the imprecision of determining caloric content of foods and burn through exercise. So I'm experimenting this round with not counting calories but simply paying attention to what I eat, how much, and when. We'll see what happens.
05/04 - 159.4
Okay, I’m officially upset and befuddled. I did have 2 pieces of pizza last night, but come on. This is the heaviest I’ve been in a couple of years, and although my clothes still fit, I am most unhappy. I don’t think it’s even possible to gain 9 pounds in a month. Going into bunny rabbit mode for a while.
05/05 - 157
At least that's headed in the right direction.
05/06 - 156.2
Yesterday was a good day, mainly because I didn't cave in to snacking and I was outside a lot in the beautiful Spring sunshine. Today is a little gloomy, but that's ok, I have flowers to plant.

Hi everyone! I love this challenge most of the time, but the ones that we have to end on a Sunday or Monday kill me, lol. Oh well, would love to see 146 something this round and to stay out of the 150's again. Ended high last round because of my anniversary dinner, but also saw new lows through out the challenge, so hopefully we can continue the downward trend.
EW Rnd 73: 148.8 (10 day Avg 149.51)
EW Rnd 74: 151.9 up a couple pounds because of vacation and Easter (no 10 day avg/didn't weigh 5 days)
EW Rnd 75: 148.8 (10 day Avg 148.41)
05/03 - 147.3 back down to Wednesdays weight before my bloody Mary sodium gain, lol. I am ending this week with a 3/10 of a pound loss. Not exactly what I was wanting, but it is a loss so I will take it. My 5 day average was down almost a whole pound, 8/10 of a pound to be exact, but still good. The weekend is here and all I want to do is stay under 150! Happy Friday everyone!
05/04 - 148.2 had a couple beers with dinner last night and ate super late, but ate super low calorie. Should be back down tomorrow. Water water and more water and no alcohol!
05/05 - 148.8 what can I say it’s the weekend. Had pizza for lunch(only 1 piece) and tacos and rice for dinner. Not even close to enough water and not one vegetable or fruit all day. Running errands and will be restocking the house for the week today.
05/06 - 151.0 Weekends are always a killer for me. 3.7 pounds up from Friday. I did have steak last night, which I try and stay away from because it seems like it stays in my system for a while and takes longer to digest. I should be down by Tuesday or Wednesday.
05/07 - 149.1 And there goes most of that steak weight. It does it to me every time, but I love it! Oh well, headed back in the right direction. Half way through this round and still looking for a new low. My 2nd oldest graduates next week and my plan was to be below 145, I don't see that happening, so hopefully I can get within a pound or so of that.
05/08 - 147.9 And there goes the rest of my steak dinner. Good day with water and food yesterday and on track for today. My 10 day average is up right now and so is my trend weight. Need the next couple of days to be really good to get that back down. That 151 through everything off so working hard to see a 146.xxx and to get my trend weight down a couple of ounces. 4 days left to do that!

We can do this !12 -
05/03 - 313.3 lbs - I felt good yesterday, and feel like I'm finally in a place to stick to it again. Glad I found this challenge!
05/04 - 312.2 - still feeling good. Working on writing when I want to eat so I can try to evaluate if I'm actually hungry or if it's a bored/emotional/binge thing. So far that's helping, I think...
05/05 - 310.4 - had a crazy busy weekend and was really proud of myself for not just allowing that to excuse poor eating choices. Made healthy food choices all weekend!
05/06 - 310.0 - I had gotten a little used to the water weight falling off, so what's stupid is that losing almost half a lb was disappointing. However, I am managing to keep carbs low without even really trying too hard. I'm trying to get used to only eating when I'm hungry, so far so good.
05/07 - 309.2 lbs - feeling pretty good. Kind of stressed because I'm getting ready for a rummage sale. But my brother brought over Pizza (my worst binge trigger) but I limited myself to just eating the toppings off of one slice. It put me close to going over my carb goal, but eating the whole slice would have been way worse. So I'm happy! 😊😊😊 Hooray for half way through the 10 days!
05/08 - 309 lbs - I slipped up and ate more than I wanted to last night. But still kept my carbs low. I'm not disappointed. I always hate the initial water weight loss when I first start because I get used to it, so I have to keep reminding myself this was all just water weight. And from now on, it's not going to be such drastic weight loss every day. It SHOULD be less than a lb fluctuation everyday (in either direction). So now I have to focus on sticking with it even when I don't show a big loss everyday. I'm doing the keto diet, and I feel like keto flu is creeping up on me. I have a headache that I cannot get rid of.
Also, for anyone else doing keto, (because it's been a long time since I started keto), but once you're first in Ketosis, do you notice you have a strong craving for meats and cheeses? Ever since last night, I feel like I can't get enough meat/cheese, which is weird. It's why I ate more than I wanted last night, and it's really difficult today to not just tear into the string cheese in my fridge haha!

I am close to my target weight having lost most of the lbs I put on over the winter but my real goal is to stop the cycle of weight gain and weight loss that I seem to be trapped in.

05/03 - 139.9 (+.7) great way to start 😂 I think I’m retaining water because TOM is coming. Will see how it plays out. If TOM is close I should have a good drop during round. 🤞🏻
05/04 - 140.2 (+.3) no idea what’s going on. I’m not eating over my calories. I’m exercising a ton. Drinking a ton of water. Should be going the other way but it is what it is. I’m guessing it’s bloat and water retention since there’s not much else I can attribute it to. Going to keep at it and hope for the best in the coming days.
05/05 - 140.3 (+.1) I have no idea what’s happening. I am thinking maybe I’m holding on to water because I’m fighting a cold. I’m still able to eat and have energy but still fighting a head cold. Not sure what else could be happening. I’m eating good and doing more activities than ever.
05/06 - 140.4 (+.1) TOM hit today (a bit early), maybe this is what has been causing the water retention. Hope to shed the excess in a few days.
05/07 - 140.9 (+.5) Not even sure what to do anymore 😂 I’m eating good, below my calories, working out like a mad woman and still keep gaining.
05/08 - 139.1 (-1.8) finally lost some of the water retention. Still about a pound up from where I was before though. I’ve been working pretty hard the last week and would have expected better results but I’m glad I’m finally down again. Only 4 days left to make goal so I can’t see it happening unless there is more water weight to lose. On a positive note I am looking smaller, clothes fitting better, and muscles are popping. 💪🏻

Tu 30/04: 165.8: Goals ✖️Woke up after a bad night. My knee is swollen and I can barely move with the pain. Not much appetite either. The weight gain is all the fluid round my knee joint. Once the knee is sorted it will go.
We 01/05: 164.8: Goals: move more than I did yesterday ✅ Knee is slowly recovering. And some of the swelling has gone.
Th 02/05: 164.2: Goals: Move more than I did yesterday ✅ I am counting this as a successful result. The mobility in my knee is still improving and the water weight from the swelling has reduced.Food

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

@beckyboo8504 I dealt with keto flu around the end of my first week on keto. I felt really weak and shaky. It only lasted a couple of days, and it hasn't happened again. While I used to grab a cookie or piece of fruit, my go-to snacks now are nuts (except peanuts) and cheese. I buy cracker-cut cheddar cheese squares that are 1/3 ounce each, and eat one or two when I need a snack. When I was losing, I would weigh my nuts and eat 1/2 or 1 oz., and stay within calorie limits. Not that I'm maintaining, I just grab a few throughout the day, and I carry a little baggie of nuts in my purse in case I need a snack while I'm away from home. You're doing good!7

ROUND 76 (Round 18 for me)
5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle mass
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-70 = 43.6 lb.
NSV: 1) I’ve stayed between 133 and 137 lb. by (pretty closely) following a keto WOE.
2) Lab work a couple of weeks ago was normal with only one exception, slightly high LDL (bad cholesterol). HDL and triglyceride levels were very good! (In 2012, before I gained weight and started keto, I was slim, running, lifting, and the doctor attributed my LDL level to genetics.)
I can’t believe I missed 5 rounds, but I’ve continued to weigh daily, when I’m home. I’m glad I came back at the beginning of a round—great timing! Tax season was followed by a 7-day cruise to celebrate my husband’s birthday and the end of tax season. I ate and drank extra non-keto stuff and gained 3 lb. by the time I returned home, but it’s gone now.
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 133.6 I feel good, and, so far, I’ve found it easy to maintain my weight, thanks to limiting deviations from the keto WOE. I’m confident enough to not bother counting calories and carbs (I learned what and how much to eat from my record keeping in the beginning.). Keto has truly become a way of life for me. I’m not confident enough to stop weighing each morning. If weight is up, I cut back, and, if weight is down, I eat a little more. It’s a rainy day, so no walk for Thor and me today.
05/04 134.0
05/05 134.6
05/06 134.4
05/07 134.8 I had some catching up to do here, but I still weighed every day. I took a friend to see the movie Breakthrough yesterday, and I ate a lot of popcorn. The movie was great. Chrissy Metz is a great actress, but I feel bad for her. I suppose her size helped her get the part. I ate a couple of keto taco cups when I got home, and I was still stuffed at dinner time. I managed to eat half of my stuffed salmon, but I put the rest in my spinach and cheese omelet this morning. That was good.
05/08 134.2 My Red Hat group had Italian food for lunch today. The restaurant didn’t have fresh salad greens, so I had soup and cannelloni (tasty, but not on my keto list). I’m not stressing out since I’m below the 140 lb. limit I’ve given myself. It’s nice to have a little leeway.
