🍀 Round 76 🍀 SW : 197.6 🍀 GW : 195.6 🍀

5/3 - 196.0 - There's that drop But I've already let myself get waayyy too hungry and made a not-so-healthy choice for lunch Hoping that doesn't derail me too much, need to get better about that
5/4 - 196.4 - We had pizza last night, so not surprise by the slight bump up and expect another bump up tomorrow. Will try to reign it in today and tomorrow so this bump up is just temporary
5/5 - 197.4 - Yep, expected. Today we are going to a birthday party but will try to make good choices.
5/6 - 196.0 - Yay! So happy to see this number this morning! Had a couple cupcakes yesterday and that may show up tomorrow, but I'm still happy
5/7 - 196.3 - Still okay, hopefully will see this go down soon
5/8 - 195.3 - Had a super busy day yesterday and ended up way under on calories, so trying not to get too excited as I return to my regular eating; expecting a slight bump tomorrow
5/9 - 194.2 - *dance* Yesterday was a normal eating day, I may bump up a little tomorrow, but happy right now!

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. 💪🏻
05/09 - 138.9 (-.2) slower and more steady, maybe I’m back on track.

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.

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.

UPDATE

* 171.0 👍 2.2lbs
JINXED MYSELF STATING THE 170's WERE IN MY PAST. I KNOW BETTER THAN TO DECLARE I WON'T MOVE BACKWARDS. RIGHT NOW I'M STILL TRACKING WEIGHT NOT FAT LOSS AS I PULL MYSELF TOGETHER.

THANKS FRIENDS NEW AND OLD FOR HELPING ME GET BACK TO HOLDING MYSELF ACCOUNTABLE. 🤩 TIME TO SQUEEZE INTO MY UNCOMFORTABLE CLOTHING AND HEAD OUT LOOKING LIKE WHO DONE IT AND RAN. 🤣

YES YOU HAVE TO WAIT A FEW WEIGH INS TO GET INTO THE NEXT DECADE. IT IS SO HARD TO STICK THOSE DECADES BUT WE CAN DO IT.....KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

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.
05/09 133.8 A little low, but better than too high. I was supposed to play cards with friends today, but vertigo comes and goes, and this morning it was bad, so I stayed home. I’m better now and finished a good Bible study. I don’t allow myself to post here until I complete my Bible study—gotta have priorities and keep God at the top of the list! Now, I need to see about doing some housework, which I forget to put on the list. I'll play some Bob Marley for inspiration.

05/03 270.2 Feeling pretty good about today. Made it through the first three days of low carb diet and went for a jog last night. Seeing a weight drop is really uplifting.

05/04 268.6 Worked last night. Nothing like a 13 hour shift to help get the blood moving!

05/05 268.2 Worked last night. So many steps! Today is run day, but I picked up a shift, so I'll be trying for my 5K at midnight. Eating is on point, and I feel really good about pretty much everything.

05/06 265.8 Holy crap! I expected to be up, since I spent all night cooking, meal prepping for the week. I logged every bite I took, and I guess it wasn't as much as I'd assumed. Ran 5K and now for a 13 hour shift.

05/07 266.0 Work was rough, and I ran that out for 1.5 miles. Saw a podiatrist. Turns outs one leg is shorter than the other! Weight is up a bit, and I'm weirdly glad. Dropping lbs so fast was making me nervous. I've got 'slow and steady' as my mantra, and I don't want to fall into the trap of craving a big loss every day.

05/08 265.4 A couple days off, and I'm still eating well. Doing my wakeup and bedtime routines. The fridge is packed with easy grab meals for the next week. Making the act of healthy choices the easiest one.

05/09 266.0 Skipped running today, boo. Will go first thing in the morning after work. Weight held steady through two days off! I feel like I've made good eating choices. Sleep average is at goal of 7hrs. I'm up to 9 push-ups a day. It's been a very good week. Thank you all for this daily check in.

My 6th Round!
10 DAY GOALS: Planning to (1) log everything carefully over the next 10 days 1250 or fewer calories with 20 grams total carbs (2) 16-hour fast most days (3) Try to boost TDEE with small daily movements to achieve 3000 steps daily (I'm disabled and I often get less than 1000 per day) (4) Workout using Beachbody on Demand: every other day

***ROUND 76 (my 6th)***Day/Weight/Comment
SW this round (5/02): 149.2

05/03 147.8 Even though this is technically hitting my goal weight for this round, I'm going to keep my goal weight the same for now. Still going strong on my (temporary) keto plan, and I set movement alarms yesterday to reach 3744 steps. Two weekends to get through in this round, here we go! (Don't mess it up, don't mess it up...)
05/04 147 No complaints! Expecting it to bounce up again tomorrow. Everything is sitting like a lump in my stomach.
05/05 144.4 What?! Yesterday, I did a short aerobics workout, but it only balanced the extra 200 calories I ate, so I guess I have to credit keto for this? Boo, kind of. I like carbs!
05/06 145.6 Nothing big to report from yesterday- still keto, still within my calories. Did 2278 steps on a bad pain day, so I'm happy with my efforts yesterday.
05/07 145.6 Cruising along. Tomorrow I will be a week and a 1/2 into my keto month. There are lots of things I like about this way of eating, and so many things that are not sustainable for me in the long term, as I have learned previously. But I may be able to do a month off and on as I am losing. There are a lot of benefits for sure. Something to consider.
05/08 143.6 Um...
05/09 146.2 So of course I didn't GAIN 2.6 lbs overnight on the 887 calories I consumed yesterday (abnormally low, I was having an awful pain day). Nor did I, evidently, LOSE 2 lbs OF PURE FAT between Monday and Tuesday, ha. Weighing daily on this challenge has taught me that it'll all settle out!

Ready for another round! I’m keeping my goals basically the same and hoping I’ll actually get a few chores done this time.
R75(1) – SW: 202.8 – EW: 198.8 (-4.0)
R76(2) – SW 198.8 – EW:?
Round 76 Goals:

1) Walk 30+ minutes each day
2) Active gardening or household task 30+ minutes each day
3) 64-80 oz. water per day
Day/Weight/Comment
05/03 – 198.8 – TGIF! Misty morning walk (60 min). Grocery shopping after class. Made Rueben sandwiches (all that salt!) and a cucumber salad for dinner, then settled down for a lazy Friday evening in. Looks like rain might put a damper on outdoor plans tomorrow Trying to stay optimistic

05/04 – 199.4 – A little bump, but I’ll work on it this week. This morning’s rain gave way to a beautiful sunny afternoon in the city. 21,716 steps, including over 2 ½ hours of walking through the park at a brisk pace. At least 96 oz of water, but I’ll need a bit more before I turn in tonight.

05/05 – 199.4 – Heavy rain all day. Lazy morning and no walk, but I eventually got a couple of hours of cleaning done before my dinner guests arrived. Carnitas tacos, sangria, and flan put me over my calorie limit, but I was under yesterday, so we’ll see how that works out. Fun weekend. I ate all kinds of food, but less of it than I might have in the past. Working on developing sustainable habits 😊

05/06 – 200.0 – Not unexpected, but somehow still disappointing. I guess it’s a reminder to get back on track. Got a few chores in before work. 60 minute walk along the shore (boardwalk) with the wind providing some resistance. 10+ waters.

05/07 – 199.4 – That’s better. Looks like another lovely day, so I’ll try to squeeze in a walk before class and do some weeding this afternoon. (Update: 70 min walk and 30 min of weeding! Plenty of water.)

05/08 – 199 – Woke up sluggish and achy – yesterday’s aggressive weeding session aggravated my sciatica, derailing my plan to walk before class. A trip to the mall with my daughter boosted my spirits, and the two new belts I bought for my now loose jeans boosted my confidence. Took the dog for a 45 min walk before dinner. Good hydration.

05/09 – 198.4 – A badly needed rest day. Last full week of classes and, as usual, I'm playing catch-up on grading and thus not getting enough sleep. Looking forward to sleeping in this weekend!

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 76 (round 8 for me !) Lets go again !!!

Female age 61 5' 4”

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it!

The last day I shall not be weighing in as we shall be flying out for the first day of our holiday in Italy. Need to do really well over the next 9 days .
Round goal - to weigh less at the end of the round than the start, I think maybe it's too ambitious to want to be in the 120's?

End of round 69 134.2 lbs
End of round 70 133.6
End of round 71 132.4
End of round 72 133.2
End of round 73 132.8
End of round 74 132
End of round 75 131.4

05/03 131.8 – walked 8 ¼ miles
05/04 131.4 - walked 8 miles
05/05 132.4 - walked 10 miles yesterday, was within calories, but loads of carbs so to be expected
05/06 132 - walked just under 14.5 miles yesterday, so loving North Yorkshire, but travel home again today so at least 3 hours in the car

05/07 131.2 – walked almost 5 ¼ miles yesterday
05/08 131.2 – just under 8 ½ miles walked yesterday, met up with my sisters under pressure to eat more, but stayed strong and using portion limitation stayed well within calorie limit.

05/09 130.2 – woohoo !! 8 miles walked yesterday – woke up starving hungry at 1.30 am!! but resisted the urge to get up and eat
05/10 130.2 – 8 ¼ miles walked yesterday. Need to hold on to this weight for tomorrow which will be my final weigh in for the round before I fly off for a weeks holiday in Italy, don't think I will be able to find any scales over there, but will keep in touch.

05/03 - 201.6 - a little loss to start me off. Exercise very good. Food could have been better but not too bad.
05/04 - 202.6 - up again. No exercise and had a few glasses of wine.
05/05 - 203.6 - up again! Food not great and Noe exercise. Very little water too.
05/06 - 203.2 - down a little, exercise good, water good, food not so good.
05/07 - 203.4 - up again but food not good and no exercise, except for standing all day which was better that sitting. Home today so will be more in control.
05/08 - 201.0 - seems to be an unusually big drop. Food was good yesterday, also good exercise and water intake. Now to hold on to the loss.
05/09 - 200.2 - very good day yesterday.
05/10 - 200.6 - disappointing as I was very good and even got a run in.

Aiming to continue with the motivation and focus I had in the last round
Target for the round is to weigh in under 140 ........
Aiming to keep as active as possible - try to get in 10k steps everyday (if I'm not at the gym) by fitting in a quick lunchtime walk at work.

Its a Bank holiday weekend here in the UK so family dinner Sunday then friends round on Monday so going to be a tough start and a Sunday morning finish when I rarely weigh my lowest .... But these are excuses I guess not reasons so onwards and downwards. Here we go ............................


R76 start weight - 141.6lb

03/05 - 142.0lb (+0.4lb) Slightly up but not unusual for a Friday morning as we nearly always have home made burgers Thursday night so my carbs are higher than other days. Not worried as overall calories were all ok. Did 11k steps yesterday and so far today done a 2500 step walk and week 1 day 1 of C25k (going to try it and see if I can get to like running although I am doubtful and may end back on my bike - just wanted to try something else). Food all planned for the day too. Here's to a great Friday

04/05 - 141.4lb (-0.6lb) and there goes the burger bun!! 12k steps yesterday including my first C25K so that was all good. We've got a skip being delivered today so will be spending the weekend loading that up with building rubbish and clearing a bit more of the garden so plenty of exercise ahead and will no doubt ache lots by the time I go back to work Tuesday! Food planned for today so all looking good so far. Have a great weekend everyone and for those in the UK enjoy the long bank holiday weekend

05/05 - 141.2lb (-0.2lb)
06/05 - DNW
07/05 - 144.6lb (+ 3.4lb) I know this isn't real weight gain just a post bank holiday gain which consisted of a family roast dinner Sunday, friends round for dinner last night and I did have 3 G&T's over the weekend. Did also spend a large part of the weekend loading up a skip with builders rubble so got a good workout and definitely didn't drink enough water. Back to normal today - food planned and prepped and gym session tonight so its all good

08/05 - 142.0lb (-2.6lb) theres most of the weekend whoosh - as ever food prepped and planned, water bottle at my side ........ Carb heavier dinner (all within calories though) of baked potatoes and salad but still hoping for a drop tomorrow......

09/05 - 142.2lb (+0.2lb) as expected given my dinner last night. Been a "meh" round so far - nothing really moved - always amazes me how long it takes for your body to "get over" a weekend (even though it wasn't particularly indulgent and I did loads of activity). 3 days left of the round though to make a difference and aim to finish lower than I started - had hoped for under 140 but looks like I may have to save that for R77.... Food prepped for the day and gym PT session tonight ...

10/05 - 141.1lb (-1.1lb) Don't you just love a Whoosh Food planned for the day and feeling positive for a decent end to the Round and to finish lower than I started. Next weeks worth of food planned, on line shop done and shopping being delivered today so no reason not to have a good week
