    Ultimate Goal: 185 lbs., but realistically 15-18% bodyfat.
    10-day Goal: 309.0
    Medium range goal - I turn 60 in early October, so the goal is to be under 300. It would mean I've lost over 100 lbs. in just under a year AND first time under 300 since my late 40's.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    08/15 - 312.4 - My biggest drop is always from Thursday (my last meal @ 6PM) thru Saturday @ noon, when I have my next meal (yes, 42 hour fast). I am surprised how much I've dropped and it looks like I'll make my medium-range goal of being under 300 by early October. The difference is that I didn't put on as much weight after eating on Thursday. Of course, the lack of stress from job searching (I start on Monday) probably adds to lessening cortisol, too.
    08/16 - 314.6 - Not bad. I had a really good food day yesterday, even if my first meal gave me a bloated feeling. Instead of using keto bread for my morning avocado base, I made a quickie keto bun. It toasted SO much better.
    08/17 - 316.6 - And after 2 days of eating, not too bad of an uptick. And down 3.7 over last week. I start a new job today, so... nervous. The cortisol could also have something to do with the uptick.
    08/18 - 313.9 - First day of the new job in the books. Although I don't relish a drive into Philly, after 2 weeks of training I only have to go in 1 day/week and everything else I can do from home. Really nice weight drop from yesterday and the new job means I must walk more than usual, which almost doubled my normal amount. 4.8 lb. loss from last week. I haven't decided if I want to do a 5:2 or OMAD once I get under 300 (to slow my weight loss). Any advice would be appreciated!

    👍🏼👍🏼 This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE. 👍🏼👍🏼

    That's a great option to have once you're done training! For slowing the weightloss, once you hit 300...I would do the math out and decide which one would be more calories for you and go with the higher calorie option. You could always give yourself a four hour eating window instead of one meal a day as well. There are lots of options and it's all about figuring out what works for you. If you like the 5:2 plan, you could just increase your calories for those days. I hope that helped a little bit!
