Day - Weight - Comment
06/12 - 135.8 (-1.8lbs) - starting to get back down to normal. I think I was dealing with bloat from dietary changes but I have changed it back and will slowly add more fiber if needed. As for workouts I’m feeling sore. Yesterday and the day before were both really good strength workouts so I’m feeling it now. Got in 15 glasses of water. Did 35min cardio at about 75% effort. Feeling good. Hopefully I can break through 135 this round. 💪🏻 Just goes to show how the scale can be so misleading. Staying the course sometimes is all that is needed.
06/13 - 137.6 (+1.8lbs) - expected a jump I ate a lot of salt last night and ate late. On top of that I’m sore and a bit bloated. Good workouts yesterday, 1hr strength and 35 cardio at 74% intensity. 17 glasses of water.
06/14 - 136.9 (-0.7lbs) - DOMS! Super sore today! Might even take a rest day 😓 maybe not will see. 14 glasses of water. 1hr strength and 40m cardio at 76% effort.
06/15 - 135.9 (-1lb) - still a bit bloated but less sore. 30min strength, 30min cardio. 15 glasses water.
06/16 - 136.8 (+0.9lbs) - still bloated but not sore. Did 1hr strength no cardio. 14 glasses water.
06/17 - 136.2 (-0.6lbs) - still bloated, ate late, not sore. 45min yoga. 50min cardio. 16 glasses water.
06/18 - 135.4 (-0.8lbs) - less bloated. Ate early. A little sore from yesterday’s workout. 30min yoga. 45min cardio. 19 glasses water.
06/19 - 135.1 (-0.3lbs) - finally no bloat. Ate a little late. A little sore. 1hr strength training, 35min cardio. 14 glasses water.

** ROUND 80 **
Round # 14 for me
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 383.8
06/13 384.2 (+ 0.4) Will probably gain again tomorrow. Had rib tips for dinner this evening. Did ok the rest of the day. Got over 8700 steps. My goal is 7000.
06/14 381.8 (- 2.4) Nice surprise.
06/15 379.6 (- 2.2)
06/16 384.2 (+ 4.6) that number is definitely salt from 2 meals out yesterday. Not concerned about it. Will drink plenty of water and this will be down in a day or two. Unfortunately I have leftovers today which is why it may take 2 days or more. On weekends I don’t get in as much water as I do on weekends when I am at work. No way a 4 pound gain if any)).
06/17 NWI
06/18 386.0 (+1.8)
06/19 384.8 (-1.2) I guess I am not going to reach my goal weight this challenge. Maybe 379.8. We will see. I can't believe it is only 2 more days to go!! Wow!

***ROUND 79 (my 10th)***
Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 139.8 I think I'll bounce back and forth for a bit between 139 and 140 away at the beginning of this round until I drop. The neat thing about doing these rounds is learning your body's patterns.
06/13 140.8 Ha, there it is! Hopefully, back down tomorrow.
06/14 137.6 Liking this! If I don't succumb to the Father's Day treats planned for this weekend (cinnamon rolls and other random junk my husband has requested), maybe I can make it stick.
06/15 137.6 So far, so good! I'm not expecting to drop any more pounds this round, but I'd be thrilled if I end in the 130s!
06/16 134.4 I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'm losing too quickly?! Over 5 lbs in 4 days.
06/17 135.8 Good, I feel like this is evening out. I want to drop real fat, not water, and I know it's impossible to lose pure fat so quickly. That said, I feel way smaller. I really need to take measurements at the end of this round. (CARB CYCLE 1)
06/18 135.6 This feels right to me. Yesterday's lower carb day didn't exactly work out (81 g net instead of 50, oops!), but I *needed* some extra chocolate at the end of the day, so whatevs. (MOVEMENT 1)
06/19 135 Hmmm, I keep forgetting my "plan" to have a few lower carb days and higher movement days- yesterday was 3200 steps (a ton for my super sedentary self) and 48 g net carbs, though. But why am I even doing this plateau-buster when I'm having a whoosh week (I made it up, so don't quote me on this so-called plateau-busting strategy)? Despite losing about 5 lbs in this round with a couple days left to go, I am really second-guessing everything because it feels so unpredictable. WHY DOES WEIGHT LOSS HAVE TO BE SUCH A MIND GAME?! (CARB CYCLE 2, MOVEMENT 2)
06/20 MOVEMENT 3
06/21 CARB CYCLE 3

ROUND 80 (Round 22 for me)
5’4 ½” 67 y/o Texas Lady
SW 178 lb.
Goal: Maintain between 135 and 140 lb. and increase muscle, endurance, and jogging distance (while not damaging my knees).
I started Round 54 and Keto WOE on September 24, 2018.
Cumulative weight loss for Rounds 54-70 = 44 lb.
I started and finished the last three rounds with a high weight of 135. I’ve grown accustomed to the keto WOE and, mostly, stick to that, but I add extra carbs when I’m under 135, which is almost daily. I’m in my third week of a strength training program. I already feel stronger. The loose skin may be irreversible, and, if so, I’ll try to be content with being strong and feeling good.

Day/Weight/Comment
06/12 134.8 I’m almost finished with the first 30 days of my strength training program (it’s taking me 32 days), and my strength and endurance are both improving. Thank you, Lord, for the ability to bounce back!
06/13 134.6 Today was a rest day from my strength training, so I rested—played cards with friends, then mowed the back yard. I mowed the front yard last night. The A/C was out for a couple of days, but my handy husband fixed it this afternoon! Hooray! Praise God, the last couple of days were unseasonably cool, so, with the windows open, our nights were comfortable. The weather is starting to heat up again, so my DH fixed the A/C just in time.
06/14 135.2
06/15 134.4 Yesterday, I had a good walk/jog with Thor, but I don’t remember much else about the day. I stayed busy until it was too late and I was too tired to post. Today was another busy day, and it’s after midnight, so officially tomorrow (?), but late nights are the norm at my house. I helped clean the community center this morning and, in the afternoon, my husband and I labeled brandy bottles for neighbors (an Austrian woman and her Texan husband) who opened a distillery near us. It was interesting and fun! We met some nice folks, had a couple of “motivation shots,” and we sampled a couple of products, but we drink sparingly. We bought two bottles, and we’ll wait for a special occasion with family or friends to bring them out.
06/16 133.4 I went to church this morning, but I haven’t been active today. I measured myself and was pleased with the inches that have come off from my strength training. I got in cardio and stretching workouts yesterday, and decided to wait until tomorrow to start the next phase of my strength training. Two days each week are “rest days” and I prefer they be on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Starting on Monday will only give me Tuesday off, but I’ll manage. A long weekend trip next weekend will throw me off, but it won’t stop me. I’m determined to, again, be lean and fit.
06/17 133.4 I had a suspicious spot scraped off my leg today. I need to protect my legs a little better from the sun. I made oatmeal cookies for an event and for my husband, and I ate three. Cookies and popcorn are my weaknesses. This is the first time I’ve baked cookies since I started keto. Anyway, my weight may go up tomorrow, but it’s not likely to rise above my maintenance range. I’ll have to keep my hands out of the cookie jar and let my husband eat them.
06/18 133
06/19 132.2 I didn’t have time to log in yesterday, and I don’t know why I haven’t had a gain the last couple of days. We had a community event this morning, with sweets, and I had several, so I’m sure I’ll gain over the next couple of days. I have a little leeway, so no problem. I don’t know if I’ll have time to log tomorrow. I’m sticking with my promise to myself not to log here until I’ve logged my Bible study. Tomorrow, I have Bunco, then take the dog to the vet to board, take the kittens to stay with a friend, and pack for a long weekend away.

Lot going on this round - daughters 16th birthday, cheer competition in Brighton this weekend, Fathers Day and youngest away all next week on her school residential so my other daughter wants to have a shopping and lunch out day so going to have to be super-focused this round to stay on track to meet my holiday goal. A Friday finish to the round is good though!!
5 rounds to go and aiming to lose a further 6lbs....... So looking to finish this round at 138lb - an overall loss of 1.1lb....

R80 Start Weight - 139.1lb

06/12 - 138.7lb (-0.4lb) Happy with that to start with. Off work today as youngest has her district sports inter schools athletic competition to go and watch and its also my other Daughters 16th birthday today so need to avoid the cake and treats and choose sensibly when we go out for dinner tonight. Feeling focused .......

06/13 - 140.9lb (+2.2lb) Had lunch out yesterday (egg, chorizo and veggies on toast) and Nando's (no starter, chips or dessert) last night with a small glass or red wine last night for my daughters birthday. Other than water (probably not enough), tea and coffee, nothing else passed my lips all day and I was within calories for the day (as best as I could estimate my lunch at least).
So I know this 2.2lb isn't a gain as I would have to have overeaten by 7,000+ calories and I know it will be back off very quickly but just goes to show how much weight can fluctuate by day to day for no real reason just based on macros and I guess salt.
Not concerned - albeit still frustrated as back over that 140 again - but still sure I'll reach my round target.
Off to drink my water.....

06/14 - 139.6lb (-1.3lb) As expected but still a bit more to go to get back to Wednesdays weight so hopeful it will be gone by tomorrow. So much going on at the minute seem to be on the see-saw again - overall trend still seems to be down though which I guess is what counts. Normal day today so should all be good for tomorrows weigh in which will be early as heading off for a cheer competition so an early start, a long day, a late night and 5-6 hours in the car so wont be an easy day.........

06/15 - DNW
06/16 - DNW
06/17 - DNW but back to proper tracking today. Weekend was full of take-out / fast food at the cheer comp rounded off by a Fathers Day BBQ at my brothers yesterday evening who never does anything remotely healthy! Why is it so difficult to get anything half decent to eat at these events ? To top it off the only place that was open at the services on the way home at 11pm was McD's
But only a couple of days which although it may show up on the scales for a few days, really shouldn't make too much difference overall. A clear week ahead to stay focused (before heading away again at the weekend for another cheer competition....) Have a good week everyone

06/18 - 142.4lb (+2.8lb) Well my weekend definitely didn't warrant that! But guess this is the downside of weighing daily.
I actually felt "light" this morning before I stepped on the scale so was shocked to see this. Still, onwards I go - my days food is planned, prepped and logged in MFP, water bottle is at my side, gym tonight and hope to see a decent "whoosh" over these last few days of the round.

Holiday getting ever closer but have signed up for a charity event running July to September to walk 1,000,000 steps - averages about 10,500 a day so definitely do-able and will also help with the final weight loss push towards my holiday. Will log my steps on her daily from 1st July

06/19 - 141.1lb (-1.3lb) Down some of it, hoping for a bit more whoosh though.... All was good yesterday and no reason today wont be the same (so long as I avoid snacking my way round the shops later when I go out with my daughter after work later to get the last few bits for her prom next week!)

06/20 - 139.0lb (-2.1lb) Guess that's the rest of the whoosh plus a bit so am down 0.1lb over the round as a whole so far with one last day to go so hopeful for my 138 finish this round albeit a bit of a seesaw round overall. All food prepped and planned for today, water bottle at the ready and gym tonight.
Hoping for a big finish .....


06/21 -
