NEVER give up, Everyone! After a lifetime of weighing 215 - 228, I’m normal. I’m healthy. I’m at peace.

I’m here if you want suggestions to assist you in identifying a small weekly habit change that you could practice each week or round. Baby habit changes work!

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!

05/09 - 308.8 lbs - I thought I posted this yesterday, but I can't find it. Felt good yesterday

05/10 - 306.8 lbs - I didn't weigh until after I'd had some water, so super pleased about it. I overslept today, and didn't have time to weigh before I had to take my daughter to school haha! The weight loss must be a "woosh". I think I'm getting the keto flu, feeling crappy today. But loving the lack of appetite haha!

05/11 - 306 lbs - Tired today, but definitely either getting a cold, or just the stupid keto flu. Not sure which. One of my random thoughts for today was that I love how the keto diet turns me into a frickin chef. I've been cooking bomb *kitten* food lately! So that's super fun haha!

05/12 - 305.8 lbs - had a good mother's day, but didn't get a chance to post this. Hope all the mom's had a great day, and happy later mother's day. I should say it was a great mother's day right up until GoT ruined it 😂😂😂

Round 76 (my 8th)

Round 69 TL: -3.6 pounds 360- 356.4
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

OSW 382
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.

05/09 333.4 Only a small drop, but that’s better than a gain. I’m on track for the week both with my weight and walking.

05/10 333 I’m surprised by a loss. I splurged and went over calories yesterday and I have a very sore back/chest muscle. I’m betting I’ll see any gain from the splurge tomorrow. My nsv was that a coat I had collecting dust is no longer tight on me.

05/11 334.2 I was expecting this up swing. I know that it’s from a splurge plus sore muscles and that it will be gone soon. I had a similar upswing the last few months at around this point in the month. Now that I’m aware of this possibility I can prepare for it next month and plan for the salt/sugar cravings.

05/1. 335.8 .... I did it to myself. Next round will be better.

* 174.8lbs 👎 0.2lbs
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
05/04
* 172.6 👎 2.2lbs
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.

05/05
* 173.4 👍 0.8lbs
UP A LITTLE BUT I WEIGHED AFTER DINNER ON A FULL STOMACH. RIGHT NOW THE OBJECTIVE IS TO GET BACK TO WEIGHING DAILY.

05/06
* 172.8 👎 0.6lbs
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.

05/07
* 171.6 👎 1.2lbs
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!

05/08
*168.8lbs 👎 2.8lbs
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.

05/09
* 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. 🤣

UPDATE

05/10
* 170.2 👎 0.8lbs
I POSTED FIRST THING ON FRIDAY KNOWING IT WAS GOING TO BE "ONE OF THOSE DAYS" BUT IN MY HASTE I'M GUESSING THAT I FAILED TO SELECT "POST REPLY". THERE'S NO SIGN OF MY POST SO THOSE THOUGHTS ARE LOST FOREVER.

05/11
* NO SCALE TODAY.
I'M TRAVELING AND FORGOT TO WEIGH IN BEFORE I GOT ON THE ROAD. IT'S LITERALLY A DAY OF TRAINS PLANES AND AUTOMOBILES THOUGH NOT IN THAT ORDER.

FOOD CHOICES WERE POOR BECAUSE I OPTED FOR WHAT WAS EASY. THE RIGHT FOOD CHOICES WERE FATHER THAN I COULD WALK WITHOUT DIFFICULTY OR WERE TOO SLOW FOR ME TO MAKE MY NEXT CONNECTION.

THIS DAY SUCKED ON SO MANY LEVELS. STILL I'M GRATEFUL FOR SAFE TRAVELS AND NOT USING THIS AS AN EXCUSE TO OVER EAT DESPITE WHAT I ATE BEING HIGHER IN CALORIES THAN THE NORM.

05/12
* NO SCALE TODAY.
I THOUGHT I'D BE ABLE TO WEIGH TODAY BUT NO BATTERIES IN THE ONLY SCALE AVAILABLE 😥
I'M PLAYING CATCH UP RECORDING MY CALORIES AND I'M COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED FROM YESTERDAY'S TRAVEL ORDEAL. MOTHER'S DAY WAS A REST DAY RATHER THAN A CELEBRATION.

A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOTHER FIGURES AND MOM'S, THOUGH BELATED 💐💕💐

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 forgot to put on the list. I’ll play some Bob Marley for inspiration.
05/10 132.4 If I was still trying to lose, it wouldn’t drop without extra effort. I’m only trying to maintain. Bob Marley (okay, his music) helped me get some housework done yesterday, but there’s always more to do. The rains have been a blessing, but I look forward to a break so Thor and I can get back to our walks. Since the weather is warming up, we'll have to get up early to walk. I'm not good at early morning wake-ups, so that will require self-discipline.
05/11 133.4 This was a concert day, so I was up early and gone most of the day. I didn’t get my Bible study done, so I didn’t log in.
05/12 133 Last day, and I’m still a little below my maintenance range. That’s okay, at least until I gain some muscle. After church and visiting my mother-in-law for Mother’s Day, I did my Bible study, but didn’t get online. I still wanted to finish this round and not leave it hanging.

DH came back a day early after he had to go to Germany, which I'm very happy about, but it means not diet friendly food. Work day also messed up my plan as I got catered lunch. Ah well, weight still looks fine for now. It'll be difficult getting exercise in ad I don't want to sacrifice time with DH for it and have plans every evening after he leaves Wed morning.

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.

05/03139.6 last round was a wash...it happens. I am back in it for May, i want to see what I can accomplish this month if I just stuck to it every day. If the odd day comes around (for this month mothers day and a concert I believe) I will treat it as a cheat meal...not a cheat day. Let the May-June 3rd challenge begin!!! (I was good the past two days but decided to begin with the new round) I got this!!! DAY 1 accomplished

05/04137-Day 2 accomplished a nice woooosh but yesterday was a very active day so not totally surprised. I know it's the 5th but I forgot to post last night and am going to post at the end of my day, before bed for more accuracy on the accomplishment

05/05 137 day 3 x after a busy day today I was only left with left over options so it wasn't a good day. If I can end this month on a three day x than I will be happy. I am not happy it happened so early in the month and hope it isn't a foreshadowing but what can you do

05/06 138 day 4 accomplished expected gain but working on it

05/07 138.4 day 5 accomplished no reason for this gain but I am taking it in stride

05/08 137 day 6 accomplished a well deserved woooosh

05/09 136.8 day 7 x no excuses just TOM troubles and bad choices. Already 2 days down. I need to be more head strong

05/10 138.6 day 8 accomplished TOM troubles. Hoping this water weight drops off more easily in the next couple of days

05/11 139 yikes

05/12 140 double yikes. So mother's day weekend, i can already tell you was a bigger hoop-la (sp?) Then I had anticipated. The gain is real. I really do want to try the month straight as an experiment and since I make the rules I will be re-tryumg. I will also be attempting 16-8 fast as well. I am finding my stomach (hunger-wise) has not shrunk, which is dangerous on more indulgent days....as you can see. So I , hoping the fast forces control and shrinks my appetite...That way those off days aren't totally awful.

Heeeeeerrrrrreeee weeeeeeee goooooooo✊🕺🏃‍♀️

5/3 173.3 Down a little. Walked three miles yesterday after work. I had the bright idea that I was going to walk down to the creek to check the water level after 3 days of rain. Three days of rain means mud... slippery mud.

5/4 173.1 Still going down if only slightly. Good food day yesterday. My trail walk turned in to an indoor walk thanks to more kitten rain.
5/5 173.8 Attended my great nephew's 1st bday party yesterday. Food served: hot dogs, potato chips and cake. Even when I wasn't watching what I ate I would not eat hot dogs and potato chips. I hate both. So Saturday was a bad food day, good breakfast but a carrot cake cupcake for lunch. I worked in the yard for a couple of hours before I went to the party. I know I shouldn't have this much yard work to do but the first 3 weeks were tree/brush clearing. I was able to burn the first of the wood I cut myself in the firepit, probably the best part of the weekend.
5/6 174.3 Sunday wasn't much better food wise but I mowed, planted a ton of flowers, and got in a 2-mile walk. I was too tired to go much further and the trail was too muddy to try. I learned my lesson falling in the mud.
5/7 172.6 Whoosh!!! Almost 2 pounds overnight, adios agua! The weekend was actually mentally very taxing. Too much family, one friend got sick while on a 1 man road trip - he's 2 states away and I am helpless. Finally a reminder of my bf's cancer (technically in remission) which as he calls his early expiration date. He's losing weight but hasn't changed his diet. I ended up leaving work yesterday to "work from home" (yes I know how lucky I am to have this privilege). Which I did until 3:30, then I went for a walk. I had already committed to giving the roommate a ride home from work, so I stopped my walk took her home and went back for another 3 miles. Five miles total, in the woods, part of it in the rain. It's just what my soul needed. I am so happy to have found something that soothes me that's not ice cream/doughnuts/pepperoni pizza.
5/8 172.8 Slight jump. Did weights last night, might be a little water retention from that. Driving to StLouis today, driving back to KC tomorrow. I’ll walk tonight, looking for a new StL trail.
5/9 No Scale Good day yesterday. Walked 4 miles - fastest time yet 1hour and 3 minutes. I'm getting so close to 15-minute miles I can taste it. Way under on calories, so probably I'm up... hahahaha Driving home today and then a hair appt this afternoon.
5/10 172.3 Woohoo for Round low! An unexpected trip to Colorado this weekend. One of my best friends is in the hospital and not doing well. I have to go see him. No scale and three days of eating out Since it’s such a long drive (8.5 hours) I’ve scouted a few places to walk. Good juju for my friend, he has multiple blood clots in his lungs and
heart and is in ICU. I’m not going to use this as an excuse to self-harm which is what eating badly really is for me.
