8/1 No Scale Didn't exercise yesterday but I should have time tonight. I did stay within calories and not too bad on sodium - even got in more water than I normally do on travel days. Probably won't exercise tomorrow unless the weather cooperates enough to get in an evening walk after the four-hour drive. I'm enjoying my time with the BF. He's back on the road next week, so I will savor this time.

8/2 No Scale Walked/hiked three after work then went to dinner. It's very hard not to overeat at a tapas place with a Spanish boyfriend. He wants to try everything! I am not complaining just stating reality Obviously, I had to do some serious estimations when I logged it but I think I did ok. The good thing is you only eat half of anything and there are loads of veggies. My favorite were these fried plantains chips with black beans and chimichurri. I wish I knew the exact numbers on them, I'd go back just for those. Happy Friday everyone. Hug 'em if you got 'em

8/3 167.4 I’m fine with this. Driving yesterday and not exercising, eating at weird times, and this after spending two days eating every meal with a well intentioned BF. I’m pretty happy today. Just finished walking 5 miles and I’m taking my recovering friend to lunch and grocery shopping.

CW 133
RGW 130 I know this looks aggressive, but I ended last round up 2.5 lbs, despite being on track for most of it!

Day/Weight/Comment:
08/01: 132 Good. Still coming down from my upward blip at the end of last round!
08/02: 131 Excellent. Now my round goal weight doesn't look so crazy. However, it will be a light 3 days of exercise. I had a biopsy today, so exercise is limited to walking (with no vigorous arm swings!) Also trying to avoid the carby snacks calling me!
08/03: 131 😁 Slightly light calorie day yesterday cause I wasn't hungry at dinner. Went for a short walk with an ice pack stuffed in my sports bra. That's one way to beat the heat! 😉

********LOOK AND SEE HOW MUCH THESE 10 DAY CHALLENGES HAVE HELPED ME********



Day/Weight/Comment
07/31 …..199.7….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
08/01 …..202.0 ….. The travel left my activity very low, especially while sitting at the movies too. The Lion King was fantastic. Amazingly realistic! As always, a great story. They built a “Golden Corral” in the city we went to. Visited that restaurant once in 2007 while visiting my sister in Tennessee. Ate less than I used to, but all the wrong (carb filled foods). It was an outing for my son & grandsons (2 July birthdays) Depressed with the scale today but raring to go. Back to business. Lots of work at the cabins & grounds today. I will also try to fit in some prep cooking. Yesterdays stats at best calculation: 2602 Calories In / 1951 Calories Out. 158 Total Carbs (I’m not sure what the net carbs would be). 6084 Total Steps & 2.57 Total Miles. No exercise & no activity showing on my fitbit. A whole day of sitting….sitting….sitting…. but I loved spending the time with my family away from home/work.

08/02 …..198.2 ….. Wow! Goodbye water weight! Cabins will be full this weekend. Between now & the 13th is my busiest and most hard-working time of the year! Lots of movement & activity expected so I plan on trying to keep my diet in line with my activity for 100% success! I did a little prep cooking yesterday & I hope to do more today. Yesterday’s stats: 1380 Calories In / 2659 Calories Out. 45 Net Carbs mainly from Spaghetti Squash Lasagna. 15,091 Total Steps & 6.39 Total Miles. 13/13 fitbit steps hours. I slept 5 hours & 50 minutes which was wonderful for me. I took a 54 minute walk, did aggressive yard work for 25 minutes & I rigorously cleaned cabins for 30 minutes. Have a great weekend everyone!

08/03 …..198.2 ….. Holding steady. I was worried it was a fluke yesterday. Out to dinner with my son yesterday. I haven’t had dinner out with him in a couple of years. Just family dinners at home. He lives about an hour away so the visit was last minute but very nice. Yesterdays stats: 1627 Calories In / 2520 Calories Out. 87 Net Carbs which is a bit of an ouchie. 11,009 Total Steps & 4.66 Total Miles. 12/13 Fitbit Step Hours. I slept 3 hours & 45 minutes & woke up tired but starting work early due to a hot water heater going out in Cabin #6. Replaced while they went downriver kayaking / canoeing. Thank Goodness my go-to repair guy was readily available. I did rigorous room cleaning for 68 minutes. Too busy for my evening walk yesterday due to my son’s visit.

My highest weight was 197# at 5’4”. I’m 48 years old.
I was 189# when I first started keto (1/1/18), and had gotten down to 150# before I let life interrupt me.

Round 83 (my round 1) SW - 165.5, AW - 163.25
Round 84 (my round 2) SW - 160, AW - 161.2

Round 85 (my round 3)
8/1 - 159.5 - started beef & butter yesterday. Not angry about the weight loss. Am over the headache I had last night.
8/2 - 159 - worked out yesterday, so I have some water retention, but that’s expected. Staying the course with beef & butter.
8/3 - 159

Ready for my round 22
OSW 88KG
RSW 65.0 kg (-23. 0 kg) or {- 50.7 lbs}
Goal... Less than I started

08/01 65.0kg...well it did say 64.95 but I don't believe the scale is that accurate so I rounded up. At least it moved slightly. My best friend is visiting for a few days... This is my tall, skinny, naturally OMAD, friend who gets all their calories from alcohol! (we currently weigh the same but with a 9 inch height difference 😁) They were supposed to visit for my birthday next week but plans changed so this means I'm going to have my 1st alcoholic drinks since I started losing weight on the 6th January to celebrate early birthday. Thankfully I've always been a hopeless drinker so a couple of gins will do and I'll be back to my teetotal ways!
08/02 64.95 kg again which is really 65!
08/03 64.95kg still. I went out to celebrate my very early birthday (it's next week) and had more alcohol and sugar (no sugar free drinks available where I live) in 3 hours than I have had for the whole of 2019! Definitely so far over 20g of carbs I couldn't even count. Back on it today but with an early coffee as IF is too complicated with a visitor. Remind me of this when I'm complaining about a weight gain in 2 days!! Beach day again today.
08/04 65.5kg and not a big surprise. I was also over on calories yesterday but kept it all Keto. Back to tracking and being strict today. My friend leaves early tomorrow so no more temptations!

@quiltingjaine I live in Malawi so soda water can occasionally be found in the supermarkets but rarely in the pubs and definitely not where I'm staying for the next few weeks.

I am in again and have done 13 rounds with the last 2 being weight gain and taking 3 rounds off. It is starting to get depressing but I am the reason for the gain. My goals for this round is to continue to get back on track and try logging food every day and work on getting back down to my lowest weight of 192 on 6/6/19 and continue with losing because I have a long ways to go.
