R119 - Lost 2.9# - 172.6
R120 GOAL: 169.9 Need to dip my toe into the 160's!
IF: 16:8
07/16: 173.2
07/17: 174.4 If my goal was to gradually gain everyday, I'd be on target. Not being able to track food/exercise due to visitation and funeral the last couple days makes the difference. Back to normal today, if normal is even a thing anymore.
07/18: 173.6 Heading back to the gym after a week off. Glad I kept walking outside, but expect a slight increase in water retention for swole tomorrow if I Iift late in the day. Still right for the long run--no pun intended!
07/19: 172.8 Good sore today. Donating blood at noon. Sleevin' Up!
07/20: 170.8 It's true--"a pint IS a pound the world around!" Ate extra of things I normally wouldn't to build back my blood. (Within my MFP calorie limit of course) Really enjoyed a serving of red-skinned potatoes topped with steamed broccoli and an extra serving of the hub's chicken from the smoker. Walked prior to donation and only a short walk in the evening.
07/21: 170.7 Walked 3 miles in the heat; uphill both ways (lol); grateful to make it back to my door--and my fitbit did not automatically sync to show my calories earned--and didn't sync all day! So disappointing, not that I eat them back anyway but I just like to smell them.
07/22: 170.7 Three days with the "0" = YAY! Clearly a plateau in the works though. I'm going to do my own version of the "Naked and Afraid" program. Think I will call it "Fluffy and Staid". (Dictionary.com had a few definitions for staid, so I selected "serious-minded"!) My goal is so close I can taste it--who's with me? Let's push!
07/23: 170.5 Never worked so hard for 2 oz in my life. Still fluffy; Still staid! Doing it all again today!

Final Goal: 130.0
07/16 - 136.3
07/17 - 135.7
07/18 - 135.2 | Losing weight much quicker than I expected, maybe being too strict on calories? Feeling super tired pretty much all the time, but I also have a newborn child, so I was previously just chalking it up to that.
07/19 - 134.7 | Even consumed a decent number of calories yesterday, still came down more than expected. Also not drinking a ton of water, so that might be part of it.
07/20 - 136.2 | Yeah, I think the lack of water the last few days was a mirage. Gonna get back on track!
07/21 - 134.7 | I guess yesterday was a weird blip. Back down to the weight from the day before. Made the famous low calorie protein powder cheesecake from the recipe section of these forums. While not particularly delicious, it is surprisingly filling for the calorie count (mine, with blueberries, is ~200 calories per serving). Eating that for breakfast around 8:00am has (so far) kept me from wanting a morning snack until lunch comes.
07/22 - 134.3
07/23 - 134.0 | Was terribly tired/starving yesterday afternoon, so I'm glad the scale threw me a tiny bone for my troubles. Actually not 100% sure my scale was properly calibrated when I started this thing, but I think it is now, so we'll see what kind of pace I'm on in the next round.

Round 120
Month/Day: Weight / Comment
07/16: 212.4 / Starting this round at my average for last round. NSV: yesterday I actually reached my hand out to pick up a 2nd donut at work, and then pulled it back. Thought about how it might affect my 10-day challenge. Wish I could be that way all the time. Does anyone else feel obligated to take a donut or cookie that someone else brings in to share at work? I do not want to hurt their feelings or put-down their act of kindness. I think I am actually wrong about this.
07/17: 212.0
07/18: 211.8 / I will happily take this, since I did not weigh until mid day after fishing all morning. Left the house at 3:45 am. Drank a lot of water. Tomorrow will be higher. I may need a nap. 😊
07/19: 213.8
07/20: 215 / Another weekend with DW family as house guests. Throw a family reunion in there for good measure. I made awesome Kabobs yesterday (So I am told.) Sous Vide the steak and finished it on the grill with the veggies. Another festival of salt these past two days.
07/21: 211 / I feel like a pufferfish . ( https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/group/pufferfish/ )
07/22: 211 / I rarely weigh the same on two days in a row. Let’s bump it down a notch for tomorrow.
07/23: 210 / I would be somewhat happy if this would develop into my normal high-end of a maintenance range (noun). As you can see by the numbers, my weight ranges (verb / 3rd person present. I had to look that up. Ha!). Now is the time to fight the tendency to let up because I am “doing so well.”

An early victory to start the round: I woke up early this morning and decided to go for a walk to jump start my exercise for the day. 2.33 miles, 284 active calories burned.
7/16: 223.6 Finally some weight dropping off in the last few days, after several days of up and down but overall staying about the same.
7/17: 224.4 I was within my calories yesterday, but most of them were near the end of the day. And I had dropped a lot in the last few days, so it’s not surprising that it’s up a bit as that whoosh balances out. I also like days like today where my scale weight is right on the trend line - feels like it’s finally showing my “true” current weight through all the normal fluctuations.
7/18: 223.6 Back to the low from two days ago and smoothing out yesterday’s bump.
7/19: 223.6 Seems to be the number of this round.
7/20: 223.8 Yesterday was one of those days where I ate within my calories, but completely unhealthy: my two main meals were a fast food burger and pizza. (Stayed within calorie limits by ordering the junior burger and only having two slices of pizza.) Also didn’t move as much as usual because my dad and I got started on a board game that takes a while; we’ll be playing more today but I plan to get up once an hour and at least walk around a bit.
7/21: 222.8 Recently I read that according to one early study, a BMI of 30 or above was associated with a higher risk of complications from COVID, and a BMI of 35 or above was associated with a higher risk of death. As of today, I am below a 35. Hovered right above it for a few days, so it feels good to have gotten here.
7/22: 221.8 I’ve lost 20 pounds! Same pattern from last week repeated here: several days around the same weight with a bobble up and back down at one point, and then all of a sudden two days in a row with a full pound drop. I can live with that.
7/23: 222.0 Had a restaurant meal for dinner, but I planned for it and ordered something that fit in my calories. Also an active day, with a brief bike ride in the morning and an extended swim (100 laps) in the evening.

07/16: 171.4- lost 1.4# since yesterday! The scale went up the day before and then shot way down this morning. Funny how that works.
07/17: 172.2
07/18: camping
07/19: camping
07/20: 175.2- went camping this weekend and did lots of hiking, but next time I'm prepping my meals beforhand for next time because I know we ate a lot of food. Getting back into our regular routine today!
07/21: 172.2
07/22: 170.8
07/23: 171.2- not worried about the little gain. I stayed within my calorie goal and exercised. I'm still feeling good!

Eeeek! Salt.
7/17 - 181.4
I’m sitting in my garden and just had a close encounter with a ruby-throated hummingbird who hovered about 2 feet from my face for a few seconds. Several gold-finches are flitting around the Black-eyed Susans, coneflowers, and sunflowers, and sparrows are picking up nesting material (aka weeds and grass) I pulled out of the beds and tossed on the lawn. And no lawn mowers! Just birdsong and cicadas. Off for a walk now, and I have today’s menus all planned. Have a lovely Friday, all.
7/18 - 181.4
Snacked a little last night — popcorn — but I’m keeping calories under control. I’m itching to dig new beds in the garden but we’re under a heat advisory the next couple of days so maybe not. I’ll get an early walk in, though. Yay, Saturday!
7/19 - 181.8
Muggy Sunday! At least there’s a breeze. My garden seems pretty happy! Be well, everyone.
7/20 - 181.4
Ok, back on track. It’s a gorgeous day here, so I’m off for a walk, then working on taking out lawn on the side of the house. Planning to fill it up with mostly natives plus some colorful annuals (sunflowers, zinnias....). The less lawn, the better— that’s my motto! 🌻🌸🌱
7/21 - 181.2
Another beautiful day unfolding here. Right now I’m sitting in my garden watching hummingbirds courting, a bunny munching clover, sparrows redecorating a nest in the maple, and listening to a hawk I can’t spot in the bright sky. I really should get up and do something. Oh wait! I am doing something! Have a lovely, everyone.
7/22 - 181.2
Sticking to the plan pretty much. Sure was easier to put it back on than to take it back off!
7/23 - 183.2
Aww, come on. I almost didn’t record this! I know this is water — can’t gain 2 lbs of fat in a day — but I don’t know why. I haven’t had a high sodium day in a while. So frustrating. My fat cells really do think this is about where we belong, apparently. Gaaa! I really want to hit <180 — or close — this round and I’ve stayed on track for the most part. Going to beat up a few bags of top soil in my new garden bed.

07/16 181.2 Boo. When will I start dropping real weight again?
07/17 180.4 Ok, this is better. All week I’ve been on track for food and getting my walks and weights in. Now need to keep on track over the weekend. The weekend backtracking has been self-defeating.
07/18 179.2 Wow, awesome.
07/19 180.4 Not surprising; I ate extra as I’m on clear liquid diet today (Medical check tomorrow).
07/20 Doesn’t Count
07/21 179.4 Thought maybe I’d retain a bit more of the procedure loss, but that’s ok. Happy Scale is under 180 even for the averages, so I’m happy!
07/22 179.2 Still in the 17X decade! Sticking to my calorie targets and keeping the exercise. Went a bit easier with the weights yesterday (2 sets, not 4) but otherwise on point.
07/23 179.8 Was expecting a little more off, but still 17X, I’ll take it.

About me:I love learning about food and everything about it; from the way it acts in the body to learning to cook a new recipe. I went to school for nutrition (got my bachelor's) but I didn’t become an RD because it didn’t feel like the path for me. I guess I wanted to keep it as more of an interest instead of a career. I then went into public health to further my education and I currently help medically complex patients by connecting them with community resources to improve their health and life. I enjoy helping family and friends when they ask for advice related to food and nutrition. Plus, it helps me brush up on what I spent so much time learning!Previous days’ entries
I’m here because when I’m not paying attention to what I eat, I start to gain and feel uncomfortable in my body. For me that results in frustration and a lot of other emotions. It has also increased my cholesterol in the past (It’s good now as far as I know thanks to diet and exercise). I have a family history of diabetes, heart disease, and all that fun stuff. So, I want to prevent that for myself by getting a hold of my food habits now.
I’m always open to conversation about food and nutrition, so feel free to reach out to me!07/16 116.8 We went for an awesome walk this morning clocking in at 6.52 miles. It was a pretty one too, up the small hill/mountain we have in my city and back home. I just ordered a flat of 12 pints of blueberries for next week in addition to our CSA. I think I’m going to take a couple days off from work to make a bunch of different goodies with them 😊. I need some me time and I think that will be perfect! Dinner tonight will be leftover pesto pasta and chicken with some leftover roasted veggies because they really need to get eaten.
07/17 116.2 It’s raining this morning, so we went for a 3 mile run in the neighborhood instead of a soccer workout at the fields. Then, I continued after my father in law headed home and did another 3 miles of walking and spurts of running when I got chilly. For breakfast today I plan on making some oatmeal with fresh blueberries, peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut cashews, cinnamon, and a dollop of Skyrr. I love that it’s a little cooler because it will be the perfect day to enjoy a hot bowl of oatmeal! I plan on making pork chops with BBQ sauce with a massive salad for dinner tonight. Still trying to figure out what I want for a snack/lunch in between the two of them. Happy Friday!
07/18 116.2 Early morning post for me. I’m just relaxing while the house is nice and quiet. I plan on doing a body weight workout and then jump on the spin bike for a bit today. I’m not really sure what I have planned for food today except that I know eating a cucumber feta salad will be in my future because I have a couple cukes to eat before we pick up our csa on Monday. I also have beets and summer squash to cook/ do something with. I have a beet and blueberry muffin recipe that I’m tempted to try from the Run Fast Cook Fast Eat Slow cookbook. I also kind of want to try and make refrigerator pickles with the squash and one of the cucumbers.
Last night we end up making Pho for dinner because we had some instant mixes back from when I had the flu in February. I added the pork cut into slices, bok choi, onion, and summer squash (My husband wasn’t a fan of the squash). It came out pretty good and it was a nice quick dinner that didn’t break the calorie bank. I didn’t bother tracking it because the two mixes together totaled 500 calories, so I knew I would be okay with us splitting that and the addition of pork weighed less than I had originally expected. I was satisfied hunger wise for the rest of the night and my husband ended up munching on some cashews and a spoonful of peanut butter while we were watching the Rev’s soccer game around 8ish.
07/19 116.2 Yesterday was an awesome day. I had a non scale victory of being able to do 7 chin ups in a row during my body weight workout. That makes me feel good because I know I’m still gaining muscle while losing weight. That has been one of my goals because I want to have a good amount of muscle so I don’t end up being skinny fat (which isn’t healthy either). I also have sore legs from said body weight and spin bike workout.
Food wise, I had fun making whole wheat blueberry muffins with the wild blueberries we picked last week. I also made some more granola and refrigerator pickles using CSA zucchini and onion. Breakfast was a blueberry beet smoothie from the cookbook Run Fast Eat Slow (Shalene Flannagan and Elyse Kopecky’s first cookbook) along with a cucumber salad with 2 oz. of feta. Snacks were a blueberry muffin, yogurt with blueberries and honey granola. Dinner was basil fried rice made by my husband. It had ground chicken, Jasmine brown rice, onion, frozen stir fry veggies and a concoction of soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and one more sauce, I think. Then I had a large apple for dessert. The stir fry was so good! Plus, I love when he cooks dinner 😊.
Tonight’s dinner will be burgers made with our CSA ground beef which is super lean. I think I read on their website the beef is about 95% lean. We have to use up some Kaiser rolls in the fridge and I was thinking about caramelizing some onions too. I’ll grill up what’s left of the summer squashes from our CSA for a side. If any greens are left well have some salad too.
07/20 116.8 Just floating in the 116 range for a bit, but I’ll take it 😊. I think I’ve been eating a lot closer to maintenance, but I’m cool with it. I went for a 6ish mile walk this morning. Yesterday was a good day filled with organizing our space and clearing out some stuff. It’s CSA pick up today and looking forward to seeing what we get! Hopefully, it’s a little more lettuce and less funky greens this week. A girl can only eat so many greens that she’s not too fond of to begin with. I love kale, spinach, lettuce, arugula and the Tokyo Bekana (new to me last week), but the more mustardy greens are too strong for me and I just force myself to eat them.
07/21 116.4 It’s crazy that my legs are still sore from my workout on Saturday. I didn’t even feel like I did a ton of stuff to them. Yesterday was good food wise, for breakfast I had my usual yogurt with fruit and granola and for dinner I made pulled pork in the pressure cooker so it would be easy to throw together after I cleaned my CSA produce. For sides we had sautéed zucchini, beet green stems, and an onion. We also each had a ½ ear of corn on the cob. My wish came true about my CSA pick up this week, we only got 1 bunch of kale and beets with greens on it. The rest were vegetables like corn, cucumbers, squash, onions, scallions, tomato, and a few other things. Have a good Tuesday everyone!
07/22 116.4 So far today I have dropped my car at the shop to finally get my snow tires taken off (haven’t really driven anywhere since March) and get my all-weather tires put back on. Then, I walked the 3 ½ ish miles home and did some jump roping and sprinting in our yard to get a cardio boost. Dinner was easy last night because it was leftover pulled pork. To switch it up for myself I cooked some quick cooking barley to put the pork on top of and had some left over zucchini with it. The barley helped make the meal nice and filling. I’m not really sure what’s on the agenda for tonight’s dinner but maybe some sort of chicken Thai or Indian curry with lots of veggies.
07/23 116.4 Food was good yesterday. I made a chickpea salad with raw summer squash, cucumber, tomato, fresh corn, yogurt, fresh dill, fresh basil, Greek yogurt, and red wine vinegar. The fresh corn tied everything together with the subtle sweetness. It was nice and light tasting while still having a creaminess from the yogurt. I’ll definitely be making similar dishes in the future. I finished up the last of the pulled pork for dinner last night. Today, my breakfast will be a smoothie pudding bowl of sorts. We ran out of yogurt last night, so I decided to use my Vital Protein’s gelatin in my smoothie. The gelatin then turns my smoothie into a jello/pudding consistency and increases the volume of it and makes it perfect to top with more fruit and granola. Dinner will be a lot of summer squash and a few tastes of Chinese food that my in laws are ordering.
I’m excited for tomorrow because my husband and I are going for a day hike up in the mountains on a hopefully secluded with minimal people 😊. It’s been well over a year since we’ve gone for a hike, so it’ll be soo nice to be out in nature like that again.
So I probably won’t be checking in here until later in the day tomorrow.

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

7/16 116.0 Last month we donated blood and subsequently learned we are slightly anemic. 2 weeks ago the doctor told me to start taking 1 iron tablet a day and to increase my magnesium. Well, there is a battle royals waging in my belly for the last several days and I’m afraid to leave the house - if you get my drift! Today I’m planning on taking nothing but my BP meds and fasting until 4 at least - that’ll be a 24 hour fast. Only black coffee and water.
7/17 116.0 Three year keto-versary! This WOE has improved my labs each time they have been checked. My blood pressure is down and I’m 51 pounds lighter than I was. Unfortunately, due to COVID I’m not comfortable at the gym where people still don’t wipe down the equipment and cancelled my paid membership yesterday. I can still go as part of my insurance plan but not use the extras.
7/18 115.5 Yesterday must have been steak day! I see several of us on this thread had steak. We split a T-bone. Back in the day I would have eaten the whole thing by myself-it was just over a pound including the bone. I had a few Brussels sprouts and about a cup of broccoli - OMAD! And we ate “dinner” early - before 3.
7/19 117.0 We ate at Great Greek yesterday. Delicious temporary weight gain! I always go up after Greek salad and gyro meat. And today we have plans for lunch with neighbors - Chinese take out - haven’t had Chinese in MONTHS! 91 degrees with 10% humidity at 8 AM, going for a high of 112 today.
7/20 118.5 Neighbor treated us to take out Chinese. Need I say more? This too shall pass. No worries.
7/21 120.0 A carb filled day of leftovers which are now going in the trash. 4 days of carbs = 4.5 lbs Back on the plan today. I’ve got this!

7/23 118.0 Our daughter had a rotator cuff repair yesterday so I’m off the “baby”sit while her husband takes youngest granddaughter to an appointment.5 -

Skipped RND#108-RND#119 - I struggled during this work-from-home isolation. Ate too much, didn't work out enough. I am.just glad I didn't put on MORE weight. My gym is open, so I'm back and working out... and generally feeling less depressed and more positive than I had since the world went insane back in Feb & Mar. Hope you all are hanging in!

Day/Weight/Comment
7/16 163.0lbs, 35.2%bf; 6h38m/85 - good sleep! Mostly a great workout, but got a little light headed at the end. The rest of the day was busy. Glad to be getting back on track!
7/17 162.4lbs, 35.0%bf; 6h28m/81 - up for bit in the middle of the night - again. A little sore.
7/18 164.2lbs (?? why ??) 35.5%bf; 5h45m/71 - slept straight through, but clearly not long enough. Out early doing yardwork since it will be SO hot today.
7/19 163.6lbs, 35.3%bf; 8h18m/91!!! Got up a couple times during the night but was always able to get back to sleep.
7/20 162.8lbs, 35.2%bf; 4h16m/59 - well, that certainly isn't good rest. It's too hot.
7/21 162.8lbs, 35.2%bf; 6h50m/84 - better! So frigging hot! 🔥
7/22 162.6lbs, 35.1%bf; 6h36m/77 - struggled with sleep again. Had a good workout and did better with my eating.
7/23 163.0lbs, 35.2%bf; 6h52m/83 - better rest; workout felt good. No way I'm making goal this round, tho. 🤷♀️

07/17 161.6 Nice walk today. 11,938 steps
07/18 162.2 I expected a little rise in weight since we had really salty Indian food last night. I'll drink a lot of water today and go for another long walk.
07/19 162.2 I cleaned outside windows. Holy moly that's tough. Then we watched Saving Mr. Banks, so we needed to have English tea. You know - with cream and sugar.
07/20 163.2 Workout at 12:30 (339 calorie burn) and cleaning. I don't know what's left to clean, but I'll find something. Then I need to meal prep because I don't trust myself any more.
4,362 steps
07/21 162.2 Walked today before my class. I'll walk again afterwards. I did meal prep yesterday, so I'm all set for today.

07/19: 238.4 (-2.6)/20.5 (-0.3)
07/20: 236.8 (-1.6)/20.3 (-0.2)
07/21: 235.8 (-1.0)/20.2 (-0.1). Here I go again! Life has been rough. I'm really trying to get out of my current job... let's call it an "unsafe work environment." I'm just trying to hang on until something pops up, and I'm a little bit scared that it's not going to happen in time. That being said, I AM SICK OF BEING FAT. So here I am, coming back to the place that has always seemed to work for me in the past. The great news is that my wife is not only on-board with the idea of me getting fit/healthy, but she is actually joining me on the journey. There are always negotiations that need to take place; she wants to define her exceptions and "cheat days" before she gets into any routine, and I am much more about jumping in and figuring out those things as they come. Honestly, I don't believe that you need to "plan" cheat days; they happen ALL THE TIME. Anyways, I'll be around consistently for the foreseeable future. I've been struggling to do this, but something is different this time.
07/22: 235.2 (-0.6)/20.2 (0.0). Two days in a row... I feel like I'm in AA! I decided to take the rest of the week off from work to rest and recharge, and also to get used to my body deciding that it's not happy with the idea that I'm clearing house and making changes. I don't really care what my body's opinion is at this point; this needs to happen. I know I'm going to be saying this over and over again, but THANK YOU all for being here, and being so supportive. It feels great every time I'm here, and... man, there's really nothing left to say. It doesn't make any sense that I would ever stop posting/reading here, and I'm finished with "not making sense" at this point in my life.
07/23: 233.6 (-1.6)/20.0 (-0.2). I try not to get too excited when I step on the scale, but today felt good. My back is HURTING today (lower and mid... very weird), just as it did yesterday. But I haven't let pain sidetrack me, which is a good thing. My wife finally jumped on the scale this morning for the first time since we started, and noticed that she's already lost 2 lbs. I know my weight loss is a bit exaggerated at this point because it's the beginning, but I'll take it. I'm going to try to find a way to get a little bit of activity in today, in hopes that it might have a positive effect on my back.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/16 - 168.01378 cals Sticking with my plan. Yesterday...stress and skipped my cardio I only lifted
weights. I will make up the cardio as it was optional today!
07/17- 168.2 1574 cals Weight seems to be fluctuating through day. I was lazy with cardio and diet.
although I won't complain because I haven't skipped a day of working out yet!
07/18- 167.8 1677 cals I guess I'm struggling with my calories today although I did complete a
short 30 minute walk on treadmill. Gonna exercise tonight and try and do better
with diet!
07/19 - 167.81324 cals I would like to be more consistent and weigh myself in the morning. I will workout this evening and try and be strict with my calories today. I am glad that at least I didn't gain
07/20 - 168.21405 cals Morning weigh-in, last night more cardio and lifting stuck to diet. I will try and stick to diet and exercise today. Hoping it is water weight or added muscle and burned fat?
07/21- 167.0 1619 cals Cardio day... 1hr last night. At least I weigh less than yesterday now let's stay on track with calories and exercise...I believe I can achieve!
07/22- 168.0 2088 cals I guess my weight is going back up again! I was hoping to lose more than a lb as long as this troublesome pound stays gone! I mostly did legs in the gym today and my gym buddy never showed! Oh, well just hope I learn a bit of self-disciplene through this experience if nothing else.
07/23- 168.6 XXXX cals I did 60 min of cardio and although the inches are coming off the pounds seem to cling on to me. I can't seem to lose a pound and keep it off. My weight is also seriously fluctuating during the day. Trying to be more strict w my calories...it's a struggle!

07/16 - 327.8
07/17 - 329.7 - doing alt. day intermittent fasting means I'll have an uptick in weight every other day. I expect it and am prepared. I'm so prepared that if I lose too much too quickly, I'll change from a 4:3 to a 5:2 fasting pattern. But so far, so very good.
07/18 - 326.8 - As expected, down a pound from 2 days ago. Since July 6th, down almost 14 lbs. Alt. day IF really has kickstarted my losses after being stuck on a plateau for almost 7 weeks.
07/19 - 329.3 - Right where I expected to be. With 4:3 fasting, my weight should be slightly up after the weekend, then back down after the fasting days. Instead of measuring on a day-to-day basis, a better measure for me will be on a week-to-week basis.
07/20 - 329.9 - And another slight uptick after 2 days of eating. Not a problem, since last Monday I weighed in at 332.5. As long as I keep my weight around the 2 lb. loss per week mark, I'm happy.
07/21 - 328.5 - Down about 3 lbs. from previous week.
07/22 - 328.4 - I wish it were a bit more, but this is one day after eating. If I'm under tomorrow what I weighed on the 16th (one week ago), I'll be quite happy.
07/23 - 326.2 - There we go. After a full 40+ hours of fasting, the drop starts again.

07/16 145.4 lbs 1,872 Calories 45 Carbs, 26 Net Carbs and No Exercise today. Just one of those days with no motivation. Made a Keto dessert but I ate to much of it. I will try to get back on track tomorrow.
07/17 146.0 lbs. ⬆️ I have to get my eating under Control again. One thing I don’t talk about much. But in the past I was/ am a binge eater!! It’s a bad habit I have and it still shows up just when I think I have it under control. One good thing is that I’m eating health food not just Junk!! 1,112 Calories, 65 Carbs, 44 Net Carbs , 5,887 steps and 30 minutes aerobics! Carbs are high but I had Green Beans from the garden and they were worth the Carbs.
07/18 145 lbs ⬇️ 1,411 Calories, 41 Carbs, 33 Net Carbs and 5,517 steps. Sweet corn is just starting to be ready and we had some for lunch. I know it’s not low carb but that’s OK.
07/19 144.2 lbs 1,243 Calories, 35 Carbs, 14 Net Carbs and 6,443 steps. It’s Sunday and our 1st time back to church since March 12th and we closed down. Wearing mask and social distancing!!
07/20 144.2 lbs 1,428 Calories, 66 Carbs, 45 Net Carbs and 7,653 steps. Evening stacking is killing my Carbs!
07/21 144.4 lbs 1,469 Calories, 75 Carbs, 68 Net Carbs and 8,245 steps. Today it was the sweet corn out of our garden that was high on carbs.
07/22 145.2 lbs 1,231 Calories, 47 Carbs, 28 Net Carbs and 5,324 steps. Spent the day running 2 of my granddaughters around. From ball practice to orthodontist and then to softball game.
07/23 145.2 lbs 1,106 Calories, 29 Carbs, 15 Net Carbs and 4,323 steps. I put up 32 quarts of sweet corn into the freezer. Kept me busy today.
