09/10: 205.3 I had a high sodium day yesterday so expected! I'm hoping for a substantial drop in the next couple of days.
09/11: 203.3 HAAAA! I knew it! Stupid water weight skewing my goal last round. Oh well, I'm going to KILL IT this round!
09/12: 203.4 Well, I ate pizza for lunch and dinner yesterday sooooo I'll take it! LOL oops.
09/13: 203.4 I'm not doing too great with staying within my sodium goals but I'm definitely staying within my calories sooo whatever! It'll come off. In the meantime, I need to work on not consuming so much sodium!
09/14: 203 Yay! I went to the gym for the first time in 3 years last night! I'm super unfit so I just went on the treadmill for half another and did some of the circuit buuut I WENT! 😁 I'd like to drop another 0.5-1lb this round.
09/15: 202.9 I'm not obese anymore!! Just severely overweight 😂💪 Not sure how this happened lol. I didn't go over maintenance calories but definitely consumed a lot of sodium! I think I'm still retaining some water considering how tight my rings are today. Ate like crap today as well so I guess we will see what the scale says tomorrow lol.

9/10 166.1 I'm in a similar place I was last round on day 1. Getting ready to travel for work with my BF in tow for a few days. I must say NO to all sodium heavy things. At least I'm seeing my man. He hasn't had to travel for 3 weeks in a row!
9/11 165.9 Yeah!!! No BF after all. EDIT: The yeah is for the weight, not the missing BF.
9/12 No Scale I was happy to be down yesterday! I'm sad my BF isn't here with me but I woke up a little sick so maybe it's better he's not here I was under on calories yesterday and lifted weights last night. Going back tonight to ride the stationary bike. No scale until Saturday. I have a doctors appt tomorrow afternoon. I hope he can tell me something good about my leg. I miss walking so much.
9/13 No scale Went to the gym last night and did over 12 miles. I'm consistently doing 5-minute miles now. The location I went to has new stationary bikes that have scales built-in so no more put in your weight, it came up 165 pounds without my help. I hope that was accurate because it meant I wasn't retaining too much water! It was after work so not my regular weighing time but I was happy. I don't remember what the scale said the last time I was the docs but I think I'll be down around 20 or 25 pounds. I should be able to spend a lot of time with my BF this weekend AND my friend Mark that has been staying with me recovering since July 9th is going to try to leave on Monday. Fingers crossed ladies. I love him like a brother but he's a brother that's been living on my couch for 2 months. Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!!
9/14 165.9 Played at the park with the baby for almost two hours! Dinner date with boyfriend. Great night
9/15 165.5 Easy Sunday. Went fishing this morning, then brunch with girlfriends. Afterwards one friend and I went to a couple of estate sales. Doc said no tear in my muscle, stay off of it another couple of weeks.7 -

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

I am home from my quilting retreat. What a great weekend with 71 other quilters. I have 183 unread messages so I’m not sure I will read them all because first thing tomorrow my car is going to the shop, without an appointment. The a/c quit working when my daughter headed down to the retreat. (Three of us had taken her Suburban because we had tons of goodies to give away.) So I drove home in my own personal sauna! It was 102 in Laughlin when I left and it’s 100* F here at home now. I will weigh in tomorrow but won’t be surprised if I’m up a little. We had some nice meals and I enjoyed them!7

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 88 (my round 6) SW - 157, AW - 156.875
Round 89 (my round 7)
9/10 - 155.5 - after 2 days of not weighing, it’s nice to see this drop. My SO thinks I’m not eating because I’m basically just eating OMAD. I’m eating when I’m hungry, just not as much as I used to and not giving in to all of the cravings. Craving fish, so that’s what’s coming out of the freezer for today.
9/11 (work) - 155.5 - better eating yesterday, better numbers today. Time to get ready for work!
9/12 (work) - 155.5 - full disclosure: the case manager at work has taffy & tootsie rolls in her office for all. I licked a piece of black licorice taffy & almost ate it, but threw it away instead. It was delicious! 😢 Weight steady, blood numbers better. More work today.
9/13 (work) - 155 - TGIF. I’m exhausted. Ready to crash tonight and it’s only 5am.
9/14 - 154 - Let me just say WOW! Wasn’t expecting that!! I’ve been trying to be super good the last 3 days, but the stress of work makes it harder. Actually went to the cafeteria with a friend yesterday & chose not to get anything, despite the temptations. I feel like I’m making progress mentally too.
9/15 - DNW - forgot my scale & ate candy corn yesterday 🤦🏼♀️ OMAD today, and a flour tortilla. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ Must. Stay. Strong.8 -
Rained most of the morning so couldn't do my long ride, but went for a 12 mile ride in the afternoon. It was good, but a little windy.
I was up a little this morning, but I had a lot of sodium yesterday, so hopefully that was it.

Although not weighing, I'll still try to check in each day and read all the posts.
Female age 61 5' 4”
Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !
Round goal –not gain too much whilst on holiday; be mindful of what I eat & drink and keep walking.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 133.2 – 7 miles walked yesterday; rain curtailed for most of the day . Later we fly out to Crete so I don't think I will be able to weigh whilst away, but I'll check in everyday if I can.
09/11 DNW - 5 miles walked yesterday mostly round the airport! macros very slightly over, difficult to control when not self preparing meals ! Oh and scales in my room, but don't work, need new batteries, I've put request in to maintenance!!
09/12 DNW - no scale batteries yet. Walked 8.39 miles yesterday, some along the beach, estimated 150 calories over goal.
09/13 134.0 - 11.77 miles walked yesterday - what's truly bizarre is the fact that the vain person that I am whilst on holiday I'm wearing my Fitbit on my belt loop so I don't get a white mark on wrist, it's recording the walks as outdoor biking, but still counting the steps?????? Sodium over, but all other macros in green.
09/14 135.4 - maybe it's not such a good idea having scales on my holiday!! And I thought I was making really good food choices and logging them . 9.4 miles walked yesterday, estimate of calories 195 over.
09/15 136 - 13 miles walked yesterday. Had moussaka for lunch at Chania old venitiian harbour after walking there. Going to aim for a simple Greek salad today without olive oil; need to stop this incline !!
09/16 136.4 - 10 miles walked yesterday, 180 calories over. Our wedding anniversary today.

SW this round: 129.6 lbs
GW this round: 126.8- 127 lbs
Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 127 I'm getting maintenance-y, but with a lot of jiggle. I zipped into an ancient pair of size 4s yesterday and was floored that they fit. But I swear, I'm still flab-ola in so many places (belly, arms, back). I so need to tone up!
09/11 126.2 This is only because I didn't have time to eat much yesterday, barely 1000, as I'm helping to plan a funeral. At least I had a BLT (bacon lettuce tomato for our non-U.S. friends) and a good salad, so some decent nutrition there.
09/12 127.6 Knew it would be back up! It's fine.
09/13 127 Funeral planning for a friend, kept eating in check.
09/14 126.6 Funeral, eating not a priority.
09/15 125.6 I only had one large meal yesterday due to the odd schedule of the funeral, and I expect this to bounce back up significantly tomorrow, but it's nice to see the downward trend.

Day / Weight/Comment
10/09 158.8 (0.0) 13.051 steps. Status quo yet again. Seems I’m stuck at this weight but it will eventually go down I’m sure. These are the times I find the hardest and when this group helps the most as I see from you all that I’m not the only one with really sloooowwww weight loss
11/09 158.0 (-0.8) 15.545 steps, yes a little loss there! I had a very good run yesterday as I went with a friend so it went much quicker! Calories I went over by 200 but – all healthy choices - still had a deficit of 667 cal. Today I might do an exercise dvd to keep up the exercise routine, especially as it’s raining quite hard.
12/09 158 (0.0) 9.755 steps … it’s was 10pm and I was in bed when I realized I was 250 steps short of my goal but honestly I couldn’t care less I was shattered! Food wise, it was a good day. I’m more tired lately as I’m getting up early to meditate before starting my day. Tonight, is W5R2 in my C25K training so I’m drinking my water and getting most of my calorie intake at least 2hrs before my run
13/09 157.0 (-1.0) 13.293 Steps, W5R2 done, yes!!! Very good day yesterday, walked quite a bit, eat healthy and finished off by a good run! I’m not sure how long I can keep this up … probably till tomorrow as it’s the start of the weekend… lol Today I’ve planned a walk and an exercise dvd. I also need to drink a bit more water.
14/09 157.7 (+0.7) 6.842 Steps,
15/09 157.0 (-0.7) 11.667 steps, W5R3 Done. Good run but got totally lost in the forest and had to use google maps to find my way back, I’m looking into different ways to avoid that in the future.
16/09 157.0 (0.0) 1.819, quiet recovery day yesterday. I ate reasonably, although I went a little over but healthy choice. I’ve got quite a busy week ahead; I hope this doesn’t throw things off! I’m really pleased that this time I haven’t put weight on over the weekend and I’m already lower than my goal. I’m still looking into apps so that I don’t get lost trail running in the forest like on Saturday. I was really good fun but, as a typical city girl, I was totally freaked out when I realized I was nearly 40 mins away from my car in the middle of nowhere (that was a long run lol)

This is my 2nd round. Finished the last round poorly purely due to TOM, cake and wine.
Determined this time. Id love to get as close as possible to 140 this round.
10th Sept: 142.75. Happy with this drop from yesterdays high. Ate within calories, almost hit macros, and walked the dog when son was training so hit 13k steps.
11th Sept: 140.25. THRILLED with this drop, considering the weekend I've had last weekend. Hit 16k steps last night and did a piloxing class. I cannot wait to see the 130's on the scales. I know it'll fluctuate up and down but I cant help even imagining seeing 13x on the scales this round. Rest day today. Son has match again tonight, I'll still him my10k steps.
12th Sept: 139.75. Absolutely buzzing off my head. Haven't been here in 6 years. No exercise yesterday as son had match. Got 9k steps. Ate within calories. Planning on a run in the woods with the dogs tonight. Have chicken and spuds in the slow cooker for dinner tonight.
13th Sept: 140.75. No reason for the increase, just one of those things. Stayed within calories. Didn't go running. Was absolutely shattered, went to bed at 8:15pm and slept till 6:20am. Feel great this morning. Have piloxing tonight. Note to self: Don't do chicken in a slow cooker - fell to absolute pieces and I couldn't decipher meat from bones from skin!!

Have walk planned with the dogs tonight. Drinking all the water today...hoping to get back down to normalish weight by Wednesday.

09/10 80.9 kg My biggest challenge today will be to avoid snacking when playing games with my friends tonight.
09/11 81.1 kg (+0.2kg) I didn’t not avoid snacking yesterday with my friends! -.-
09/12 81 kg (+0.1kg) Did a lot of exercise yesterday and ate around 1600 calories.
09/13 81 kg (+0.1kg) I am been doing blogilates 100ab and glute challenge these last days. My body is sore! Think I am going to try to eat more low carb-meals from now. In my experience it is usually easier for me to stay to my calorie goal if I don’t eat to many carbs.
09/14 ??kg I did not have access to a scale yesterday.
09/15 81.6kg (+0.8kg) I walked over 10 km on both friday and saturday. So I am happy with that. I was eating out a lot and it is impossible to count calories then. Did chose the healthy options, but I am still bloated today from the wine I drank yesterday.
09/16 80.8kg (-0.1kg) Low carb meals is already making a big difference. I do not feel hungry at all staying with my calorie goal of 1600 calories a day. And it looks like it is helping with my bloat as well

Time for a post holiday / kids back to school re-set.
My aim is to be back to my pre holiday weight of 133 less a pound or two by the end of September (end of round 90).
Target for this round is to get back to normal eating, logging everything, planning and prepping properly and getting my water intake back up - like many people, it all slipped a bit post holiday and with the kids being off. Target for this round is to see 136lb. This is my round to get re-focused
Start Weight 140.3lb
09/10 - 138.1lb (-2.2lb) Yay - that's some of the weekend roast gone - same every week and "excess" usually gone by mid week so hopefully I'll see another drop tomorrow morning. Good day planned today and like feeling a bit more back in control
09/11 - 137.3lb (-0.8lb) That'll do thank you! So pretty much back to where I was after my holidays so 3.5lb up overall as got to 133.8lb before my holiday. So onwards and downwards towards that number again - aiming to get back to 133lb by around the end of September (end of R90 / R91)
09/12 - 137.6lb (+0.3lb) Fine with this small upward blip as at least it means this weight is probably a true weight and my weight loss often goes down for a few days then a blip upwards. Food was all good yesterday although I did spend an hour just sitting in front of the TV yesterday when I got in from work doing absolutely nothing except drinking coffee which I never normally do as felt really tired But first full week of the girls in their new schools and college plus hubby been away all week too so need to give myself a bit of a break!
Food planned along with a gym session tonight so should be a good day ahead
09/13 - 136.8lb (-0.8lb)

09/16 - DNW - Totally crazy weekend. Grandkids over after school Friday to stay over so had a movie and popcorn night with them plus our two. They went home lunchtime Saturday then headed straight out to the girls cheerleading team Picnic for the afternoon (tried to make the best of the terribly unhealthy - so very tempting and rather nice - food that was available). Yesterday during the day was fine with our usual full on roast last night then me and hubby went out for the evening and had a drink and shared a bag of sweets at the show so bed later than normal for a Sunday and so laid in for an extra 10 minutes this morning and didn't remember to weigh in until I'd already had my morning cup of tea But good food day planned and back to proper tracking today and still aiming to finish in the 136's for the round. Have a great week everyone

Goal this round -2 lbs; goal wt for 1-1-20= 255
Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 - 270.5 considering i had a pretty loose eating labor day weekend, I'm not to discouraged but more determined to drop a couple of pounds.
09/11 - 270.4 Staying pretty consistent, need to get some workout time in and move the needle down a bit.
09/12 - 269.8
09/13 - 268.0 probably dropped some water weight plus had not eaten in several hours when I weighed in. My goal is to keep the focus over the weekend which will be difficult because we are out of town and not cooking our own food. But it comes down to making good choices, its my call.

9/10 193.5 lbs 6h51m/83/10:45pm - great workout, but work didn't go well. Late to eat dinner, but good sleep. Kind of a mixed bag....
9/11 194.6 lbs 6h32m/77/10:36pm - super sore in my quads & hammies, this may be water retention in the muscles. I didn't use my foam roller, which I should have. Bad night sleeping because of another bad day at work. Combat tonight... should help.
9/12 194.4 lbs 6h50m/83/10:22pm - bad day, good sleep. Training this am BEFORE work. Generally feeling frustrated but hoping to turn it around today.
9/13 193.5 lbs 6h27m/83/10:42pm. MUCH better... good day at work, great workout, good sleep. Was so sore, so I stretched everything, right there in the office... lol. Helped a ton, feel pretty good right now!
9/14 192.4 lbs!!!! 6h15m/71/12:00am - Is it possible I can make goal this round? 💪😎
9/15 192.1 lbs 8h22m/92/9:13pm - 3+ hours spent talking with strangers, to me, is more exhausting than a heavy workout. I don't think I've ever gotten a sleep score in the 90s, since I started tracking.
9/16 192.4 lbs 6h53m/81/9:32pm - so tired, but woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't get back to sleep for way too long. Had a great day with excellent energy... hoping there is still some in the tank for my workout this morning.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/10: 136.8, have dinner with a friend tonight and a tennis lesson so hopefully the additional exercise of a lesson will combat some of the eating out aspect of the day.
09/11: 136.6, woke up with a dry throat so have a feeling I picked something up from my niece when I babysat her. Today have a family members birthday dinner out at a restaurant I really love, but might just go with soup to better my odds of getting well. Officially have a 25.9 BMI so only .9 to healthy. I started in the 32s I believe so what a difference 10 months is.
09/12:136.1, officially have a cold so didn’t go to the gym yesterday and won’t go today either. Going to sleep today to try to kick this as fast as I can
09/13: 135.9, so sick of being in bed but feel better than yesterday so I think it’s working. I have a concert on Sunday that I really hope I’m going to be ok for!
09/14: 135.7, I’m still not 100%, but hope to go back to working out a bit tomorrow or Monday
09/15: 135.7, feel much better today, but woke up very thirsty so will prioritIze water today. It’s been very warm here so might try to get some of the liquid in with popsicles for my throat at well.
09/16: 135.4, went to a concert yesterday and ate and drank more than usual, which is usually seen in 2-3 days on the scale. Hoping to be really tight on my food consumption the next 4 days to combat it.

Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 - 141
09/11 – 140.5 – I had a fasting medical test on my gallbladder yesterday morning. Part of the test is injecting me with a chemical that mimics eating a meal. The tech asked me my weight and before I could tell him, he looked me straight in the eyes and said “It’s very important you give me the correct weight since this dose has to be calibrated with a meal.” I almost laughed out loud. I wanted to say that I’ve been telling dozens of people what I really weigh every day for the past year and a half, but I simply told him I weighed 141 that morning. This exchange once again reminded me of how important this group has been to me in being able to stay accountable and lose and maintain my weight loss over the past 18 months.
09/12 – 141 – Fine with this.
09/13 – 139.5 – Considering I was up 4 or 5 times in the middle of the night going to the bathroom, I’m chalking up this loss to water weight. It’s a nice place to start for the weekend.
09/14 - 142
09/15 – Forgot to weigh.
09/16 – 141.5 – I probably ate a little over maintenance this weekend, but back on track today.

Previous Day's Comments09/10 - Way backwards movement. But I did cave to anxiety eating a Sonic Blast last night which never bodes well for the tummy (lactose sensitive). I'm still feeling the bloat today. Plus I have a bit of DOMS from my first workout in awhile yesterday. Need to get right today. Coworker and I both want to lose 20lbs and we are almost identical in BF%, weight, and clothing size. Hopefully the anxiety I'm already feeling goes away quickly today.
09/11
09/12- Well, apparently my check in yesterday didn't post? I couldn't find it. Yesterday was a really hard day emotionally. It was my first 9/11 not serving in uniform and oh boy did it make me miss the army so much. I ended up having several breakdowns throughout the day. Kept myself out of the office with meetings or volunteering to help out the rescue team and do some fire brigade demo'ing instead. I tried to do 110 flights for the firefighters who lost their lives that day. Only made it 30 flights with everything else going on. And I also gave blood and didn't want to overdo it. I'm SO sore today in my quads (lets me know my quad/glute is unbalanced and I'm not engaging my glutes enough) so I need to do 2 more iterations (to the top of the plant is about 20 flights) today and 2 tomorrow to complete my 110 flights. I'm not in the shape I was before and my spinal fusion will not allow me to do too much at once anyway. I'm still determined to complete it.
Food wasn't great yesterday. Ended up getting pizza for dinner with my neighbors. But I have my throw-together leftovers (kielbasa, mixed veggies, and thin-sliced potato) today for lunch and I believe I'm going to lunch with a vendor today. Must make good choices! Think I'll have half my small thing of throw-together before lunch to break my fast and maybe the other half as a small snack after lunch if I behave and portion properly and get hungry. Hoping, since its mostly vegetables, it will help fill me up before lunch enough I can't possibly overeat. I know this drop is water weight and from giving blood so I want to try to maintain it as I recover and get down to my lower weight from previous rounds. More water today, too, as I've slacked on that HARD.
09/13 - Went to BF's daughter's cross country meet last night and ended up staying at BF's house so no scale. Food wasn't very good yesterday but I was more mindful about it than I have been lately which is a huge step back in the right direction for me. Ended up sprinting in jeans and steel-toe boots to make it to the start line in time for her race to begin so even got a little workout. My quads are still on fiiiiiire and I haven't even gotten to finish my 110 flights. I don't know if my body can handle that, honestly. I'll keep trying, though.

I have never done this challenge before but I need accountability so here goes! I hope I do this right. I am ordering a new scale so my measurements may fluctuate but my goal is to stay consistent with diet and exercise.
I am a 57yo female
CW: 200
CGW: 198
UGW: 145
Day/Weight/Comment
09/10 -200lbs- I am ordering my new scale today so I can monitor my weight better. Got my walk in early this morning because it is going to be 95 degrees here today and it doesn't cool down until after dark. I am not generally a morning person but I have to admit that the slight crispness in the early morning air is very nice!
09/11 -199lbs- Walk was a bit slower today. I am counting this as a rest day. Calorie intake and logging was good yesterday. I am thinking about joining a gym because winter will be here eventually and while I love my walks I hate being cold!
09/12 -199lbs- My new scales should be here today! I felt really shaky yesterday. Don't know why. I did make sure I ate back some of my exercise calories and nutrition looked pretty good...I do feel better today and had a great walk this morning. I am worth this effort and so are YOU!
09/13 -197.1lbs- Thank you, new digital scales for that drop! HaHa! I still want to lose another pound during this challenge. I feel good today except I have about a hundred things that need to be done and I need to stay on top of healthy meal planning!
09/14 -195.3lbs- I hope this is not my new scales malfunctioning! Then again, I spent the month of August with the scale not moving AT ALL so I will take this. I plan on just leisurely walking this weekend and eating small portions if we go out...just relaxing a bit for the weekend.
09/15 -195lbs- Went over a bit on calories because of no exercise. Planning on resting again today.
09/16 -194.8lbs- Back at it today! Got my walk in and ready to do some meal planning for this week.

OSW 382.0
RSW 299.6
My goal is to get back to my lower calorie goal and start losing more than water weight.
09/10 298.8 Guess I was wrong, there was still some water weight to be lost! Today will be my last maintenance day of this set. I’m planning a day or two of eating at maintenance calories here or there for special occasions now that I know that I can stay on plan more often than not.
09/11 299.2 A bit of a bounce up, but dinner was high in sodium so I’m not surprised. Back to lower calories today. I’m ending the maintenance break at only 3 pounds higher than I started it at. I don’t think that’s too bad at all.
09/12 297.4 Who knew that I still had water weight to drop? I did pretty well yesterday staying on track. It doesn’t hurt that I’ve decided that I’m not going to be as aggressive in my weight loss goals for the moment. I know that I can be if I want, but I think that led to the binges and struggling in August. I still plan to lose, but I’ve set my calorie goals for a little higher than I did before in hopes that it will lead to fewer binges and less struggling. If it doesn’t work out I can always change things.
09/13 297.8
09/14 298.8 I picked the perfect time to end my break, it’s time for the pre tom stall/bounce. That’s okay though because I usually drop a lot once tom is over.
09/15 297.4 That’s a nice little drop. Hopefully once tom arrives (on time I hope) I’ll see some new lows.
09/16 298.6 The tom hungry got to me yesterday. However, I didn’t binge I ate at my higher end of calories and ate back some of my activity calories. In the past I would have dealt with being over hungry until I binged on something. Thankfully tom started last night and hopefully the worst of the hungry is past. If not that’s okay, so I lose a little less this round, I know that this passes.
