Over the weekend I did my 1st 10K run at the Cleveland Marathon! I did it!!!
And the Keto diet helped. I didn't get too tired (no carb loading for me!
) and the recovery was fast! I only felt muscle ache the next day and I am all better today. I can even go run today! It's amazing. So with that said, I am sticking to the Keto and gonna try harder to get the macros under control.
Anyone interested or already a Keto pro friend me!
BRAVO! Congratulations on completing your first 10 K!1 -
Thanks Michele!! I ran for my brother who became paralyzed 2 years ago. I definitely will do it again!

Feeling super bloated and not motivated at all. I keep trying to tell myself that I'm still three pounds down from where I was at this time last month. Memorial Day weekend is coming up and I do plan on indulging. I'm hoping I get a successful long run in on Sunday.1 -
And I'm back at 150.8 today. LOL. I just want to get to the 140's!

4/8 - 144.0 Shocked at this drop. Fully expecting a slow down this week.
4/15 - 145.1. UGH. Wrong direction. I was down to 143.7 earlier in the week, but the weekend did me in. Went to a party with great food and open bar Saturday night, yesterday out for brunch and my daughter baked a cake. I was hoping not to go overboard since Easter is this weekend and I know there will be so much food at my in-laws. Will do my best to stay on track this week and watch portions at Easter.
4/22 - 145.7. Not happy! Was sick last week so less movement and ate way too much. Let's hope that next week I have a better update.

5/27 - 142.9. Disappointing because I was down to 141.8 two days ago! Hoping a lot of this is bloat due to TOM coming.1 -
Well, it is Memorial Day! I did not manage to lose 10 pounds during this challenge, but I DID make significant changes. I have gotten back into doing workouts in my garage, and I have been eating keto compliant with only a few exceptions. I am only down 6 lbs, which is not "stellar," but I am now able to comfortably wear several pairs of shorts that I could not button up 2 months ago when we started the challenge, so I am declaring this a "WIN" for me!

Man, the last couple weeks have felt so hard. I have seen 142 on the scale, which was my goal to reach for June 2nd, but only a couple times and have mostly hovered around 143. Mostly it’s just mentally exhausting trying to keep on track. That and my training schedule has become more time consuming and exhausting. I might take a diet break for a couple weeks at the end of next month and the beginning of July; I could use the energy for my half. I really want to be in the 130s by then. I’ll feel a lot better about shifting to maintenance for a bit if I can get out of the 140s. Hope everyone is managing well. 👍🏻0

@MicheleStitches Being able to wear those shorts is awesome, definitely a good sign that fat is coming off the right places! 👍🏻
@MeadowRae It’s so frustrating watching the scale go up and down! Sometime though, your weekly high will be out of the 150s. Gotta love when that happens!1 -

I really need to start tracking better. Some of this is bloating, but I honestly haven't been tracking like I should and I've overindulged on wine. I went to the doc today and she reminded me I'm up ten pounds since last year. I know that some of it is muscle because I was pretty dedicated to weight lifting over the winter, but it's still discouraging to hear.1 -

4/06 - like 142. Got on the scale, almost cried. Super depressing and felt gross. I signed up for MFP and started CI/CO the very next morning.
4/13 - 137.4
4/20 - 135.4
4/27 - 133.6

5/12 - 131.6
5/19 - 131.6 (stalled out here for a while)
5/26 (MEMORIAL DAY EVE) - 130.2 - Success! Dropped slightly over 10 lbs juust before Memorial Day. I basically slept all weekend because I was ill, but the extra sleep honestly probably helped my body stay on target rather than lose ground. As of today, 5/30, I squeaked into the 120s at 129.4.1 -

I don't know how my weight is staying up. I'm hoping some of it is water weight and it will go down with time. I've been doing a lot better so I know I just need to keep it up.0 -

6/3 - 140.4. Happy to see that TOM bloating was gone and I reflect what I hope is my real weight. My goal has been to be in the 130’s by my birthday, which is in 16 days. Inching closer.1 -
