5/15 172.9 I'm pretty happy with that number considering some of the questionable choices I made while visiting my sick friend. Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. He is stable but still in critical condition. I drove home yesterday; I had to come to work today. Luckily I have a job that allows me to take 3 unexpected vacation days with no warning or penalty. I think what saved me weight wise is that I walked twice a day. I found a couple of nice trails close to the hospital in case I needed to go back quickly. Sitting for 12 or 14 hours in the hospital would have been too much. I can tell I'm stressed, MS is making my legs tingle and despite sleeping well my body is aching all over. I'm trying to decide if I should walk tonight. Part of me thinks it would make me feel good mentally, part of me thinks my body needs a break.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/12 …..192.7 ….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

05/13 …..192.7 ….. Hard to believe weight is the same after 2 celebration meals yesterday. I watched portions but was way over on carbs. I’m sure it will show up on the scale in a couple of days. Very very sick today. Literally in bed all day. Either the flu or more likely some severe dehydration. I’ve been drinking a large amount of water today in bed. I think I may have worked hard on my steps for my birthday goal, but not taken in enough water. This is the first time I’ve sat up today. Heading back to bed now.
Good luck everyone on this round!

05/14 …..192.7 ….. Still sick but holding weight steady after Mother’s Day probably due to the illness. I have some work that must be done, otherwise, I’m pampering myself as I still feel horrible. No movement yesterday. I literally did not even hit 1000 steps---in bed all day. Calories were low because I felt so bad. I don’t know whether to expect an up (Mother’s Day festivities) or a down (sickness) in the coming days. We shall see….

05/15 …..192.6 ….. Movement in the right direction. Finally felt better by last night. I didn’t desire much food but I was back to craving “goodies” so I stuck to my standby Keto snacks to stay within my limits though it could have been better planned. I just wasn’t sure about my stomach quite yet. Yesterdays Stats: 1047 Calories In / 2415 Calories Out. 20 Net Carbs. 11,316 Total Steps & 4.81 Miles. IF 16:8 . 13/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 5 hours & 37 minutes. No planned exercise – I certainly didn’t want to push it. I now know it was a bad flu because others around me are coming up sick now too. Oh my!

5/13 - 195.5 - Recovering a bit from the weekend, but starting off good
5/14 - 196.5 - Work is getting hectic, which increases my stress and I'm not sleeping well… Hopefully this will reduce after Thursday, but I expect this number to increase over the next few days, just hoping to curb how much it goes up
5/15 - 196.8 - Creeping up again… this is okay and expected, but will try to keep this from being a trend

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 - 137.2 (-2.4lbs) I don’t know if this is real or if it’s just going to shoot back up to 139. It has been back and forth the last several days. I should be in this range but will see what happens in the coming days.
05/14 - 138.7 (+1.5lbs) and there it is 😆 I’m sure it’s a bit of DOMS causing water retention. Im just going to accept the ups and downs as the new normal. At least it’s not 139s.
05/15 - 139 (+.3) can’t say I’m surprised. Felt bloated last night. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

***ROUND 77 (my 7th)***Day/Weight/Comment
SW this round (5/12): 144.2

05/13 145 Up 0.8 from yesterday, but not too bad considering it was Mother's Day!
05/14 144.2 Started my gradual bumping up of carbs yesterday (from 20 to 25 net for this round). I totally expected to be up today because extra carbs are accompanied by extra water, plus, I didn't hydrate well yesterday, so this is a nice surprise.
05/15 144.2 Hmmm, again? Not sure why, but it's not a problem. A week left to try to reach my GW for this challenge. 17 days in, I think I'm more fatigued on keto...could also be that my calories have consistently been lower. Paying attention to this...

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 - 183lb - after the success of round 76, I let myself have a day of relaxed (but not crazily so) eating before I go hard again this round. Ate over my goal but not more than 1700 calories in total. Back to normal restrictions today!
05/14 - 182lb - sub-goal achieved! Onwards and downwards next sub-goal is 12.5 stone (175lb)!
05/15 - 182lb - made good food choices yesterday, though ate a little later than normal. Looking forward to seeing 12-something (stone) on the scale!

05/14 202.6 Had a healthy lunch and dinner, kept it mostly low carb.
05/15 201.5 Healthy lunch, but I gave in and had 3/4 of a bread at Panera. Had an unsweetened iced tea
instead of diet soda today! Going to boyfriend's house today after work and he always messes up my healthy eating, so hope to keep making good choices.

I weighed on a decades old analog scale but it's better than not weighing at all. Especially since I'm working to get back to doing this daily.

Calories have improved. Hopefully I will end this period with my daily average consistent with my calorie goal.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 188 started my day with veggies and protein, drank some good amounts of water. ate a great lunch and dinner. then the snacking hit- Culver's ice cream and cheese curds

05/14 189 (have already eaten breakfast and drank water and coffee, so not truly accurate. Will measure better tomorrow. Have had breakfast (carrots and chicken) and drank some water. Will be working at home today so will be able to make good choices, lots of great options in the fridge. Planning on going for a run this evening after work.

05/15 183.5 lbs (say what??!!). Amazing what eating well and drinking 92+oz of water does for me! Packed my water and lunch for today last night...that really helped things this AM to get out the door. Finishing up my dinner and stayed with calories, and finishing my water to hit my daily goal.

ROUND 77 (Round 19 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 54-77 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last round below my maintenance range. I like the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/13 132.6 I’m off to a low start, which means I can indulge a little. Strict adherence to keto paid off while I was losing weight, so I’ve earned the privilege of eating extra carbs. I’ll have rice with my Keto Gumbo this evening. It’s good without the rice, but I don’t want to lose more weight. My husband loves the Keto Gumbo, and, since he’s thin, I always add rice to his serving. Thor and I are going for a long walk today—I’ve kept him waiting for 3 weeks because of our cruise and all the rain since we returned. The sun is shining!
05/14 133.2 Thor and I enjoyed our walk yesterday, but I’m afraid I waited too long and have to get him used to it again. I checked the pavement several times yesterday to make sure it wasn’t too hot, and it seemed okay, and he didn’t act like anything was wrong. He walked some on the grass, but he seems to prefer the pavement. His feet were obviously sore last night. I’ll give him a couple of days before we walk again and keep the next couple of walks a little shorter. Yesterday, we walked a little over 4 miles and jogged part of the way. Thor ran out the door to chase squirrels this morning, but then slowed down. I hope he’s okay.
05/15 133.0 I started strength training with the Chalean Extreme program. I’ve procrastinated and let other activities take priority, but I’ve done it before and know how well it works, so I want to stick with it. I may have to get tough on myself. My canine buddy, Thor, is prancing around normally today, but I'll wait until early Monday morning to take him for a walk, and then keep it under 3 miles and work back up for him. I still don't know exactly what the problem was--too far, too fast, or warm pavement? I carry water for him and stopped twice to let him drink. He seemed fine and didn't slow down until we were close to home, and he was walking in the grass.

GOAL. This month I am planning a non stop dieting month. The first week didn't go as well as planned so I am hitting the restart and refresh button. May 13th-JUne 13th I will be dieting non stop, fasting and will only allow 3 cheat meals at most (not days) and keep them limited to events I can not control (meaning no Saturday morning high calorie breakfasts that potentially will derail the rest of my day) this is an experiment to see what I could potentially accomplish if I stuck to it for the whole month.

5/13 142 triple yikes, this weekend was less than ideal. I am restarting my whole month because I can and I am the boss and now that I have seen the gain, i know for sure this is a slippery slope. I am also starting a 16-8 fast, hoping this will shrink my appetite. Cheers to new beginnings (day 1/31 accomplished)

5/14 140.8 2/31 accomplished

5/15 139.0 3/31 accomplished fasting has been going good so far. Ending my day after 8 and eating my first meal at lunch around noon has been surprisingly easier than I thought....But tomorrow will be a rough day. I get to eat breakfast but my fast starts at 10 and doesn't end until 6 am Friday morning. My first long fast. I have a bunch of things planned to keep me busy and although I have had not so hungry days before, i have never forced a longish term fast based off will power alone....So wish me luck
