SW 221.1 Mom’s scale @ fishing camp 🎣
10/04 221.1 Mom’s scale @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3 miles, tracked food, skinny margaritas.
10/05 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3 miles, tracked food, wine. Good day fishing… caught a 26” redfish!
10/06 DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3 miles, gardened, tracked food, wine.
10/07 222.5 Walked 3 miles in the evening after 5 hr drive home, tracked food, AF. Bye bye higher carbs, cake, fried fish and happy hour alcohol … I’m back home & tackling the number on the scale again.
10/08 220.8 Walked 4 miles, tracked food, AF. Nice to see the drop on my own scale!
10/09 221.1 Walked 3 miles, tracked food, AF. Undecided on the keto fried green tomatoes with coconut flour … I definitely like cornmeal better.
10/10 220.0 Walked 4 miles, bike 15 min, tracked food, wine. Planning ahead menu & exercise before a splurge today … Saturday night celebrating my son’s 30th birthday at Grimaldi’s Pizzeria and then back home for Southern Keto Cookbook’s Keto Cheesecake with Pecan Almond Crust. Hit my 10% loss goal! Nice to see that final zero this morning … now to tackle the teens!6 -
Going for another round. If I lost another 2 lb this round, that would be amazing but will be happy with anything under 146.0 at the end.

Round 128 – starting weight 147.2
10/04 – 146.6 Good morning. Tracking going fine, and I joined three other October challenges overlapping this on. Two are just pushing exercise, while the third is a daily accountability of tracking, < target calories, and over 20 min exercise. Staying under my target calorie number AND burning 200+ calories a day is becoming hard rapidly. I am hungry all the time. Down 1.8 lb in 3 days, and 6.4 lb in just under 3 weeks. I am happy with the loses, but I need sustainable as well. I may have to redefine what is “staying under goal calories”.
10/05 – 147.2 Weight makes more sense for 3 weeks with a total of -5.8. Still hoping to end the challenge between 145.8 and 145.2.
10/06 – 147.4 Another up, exercise and tracking does not predict this, Continue with watchful waiting.
10/07 – 146.6 Full circle, back to the 146.6. At least this time, it is closer to logical. (Note: hoping for 144 for 59th bday on 10/26)
10/08 – 146.4 Proud of myself last night for stopping myself from stress eating during the debate. Need to just leave the TV off
10/09 – 145.8 This was a happy surprise. Though all my numbers were good, I was mentally preparing myself for a gain today given how the rest of my numbers this week had been going.
10/10 – 146.0 The tiny seasaw continues. End of day dinner was heavier than typical, though I kept under my target calories for the day.

Hubby and kids have left town for a few days. I'm planning on catching up on sleep, work and housework.
5/10 125.5kg
I'm maintaining trust in the process. Last month I had 10 days of slow increase, then a big drop. Today is day 5.
6/10 124.8kg
Whoosh. A bit earlier and less than I expected, but if it doesn't go as high, I can't be surprised that it doesn't go as low. Reuniting with my family tomorrow. It has been a lovely few days by myself.
7/10 124.3kg
Another big drop. This gets me much closer to where I would be without the bumps. Gone on holidays, so no weighing for a few days, but I will keep on checking in.
8/10 DNW
I'm busy keeping up with the kids. They are always going. I will need a holiday from my holiday at this rate.
9/10 DNW
Hiked to the beach, then along to an interesting rock called Camel Rock. All up, it took about 90 minutes, but with the kids, there was a lot of stopping and starting. I have blisters now though.
10/10 DNW
Last day of my holidays. When the cabins booked were at opposite ends of the park (and a hill) getting plenty of steps in has been default.

Goal Weight: 122-125lbs
Day/Weight/Comment:
10/04 138lbs. (No change is better than an increase, right?)
10/05 138.5 (Ah...and there’s in the increase. Sigh. No idea why. I am doing my usual...weighing my vegetables, counting every calorie in my grape tomatoes, have run 3.5 miles every day, walked 15,000 plus steps, drank more than 120oz. water. Sigh. We’ll see tomorrow...)
10/06 139.5 (Dude getting weighed everyday is hard. Yesterday ran 3.75miles, 17,000 steps, 1135 calories, water, morning and evening exercises. And I gained a pound? What was it? Did the banana or apple I ate weigh more than the produce scale at Giant Eagle reflect? Oh well...every day is a new one. Maybe tomorrow will see a drop.)
10/07 138lbs (I didn’t see the drop I wanted, but I didn’t panic either. Just going to keep trying.)
10/08 139.5 (A gain. Yesterday was my usual 3.5 miles run. 1110 calories. 134 oz. of water. Very cherry tomato calories counted. Apple and peach weighed and veggies, too. Strength exercises, everything. I KNOW this happens. And I KNOW it will be okay. But it is still hard.)
10/09 137.5lbs. (Better. But it is still hard.)
10/10 137.5kbs. (The scale is not my friend. I just wish I could feel rewarded by achieving healthy goals...like the running and the eating right, the not bingeing. Instead I let the scale give me a thumbs up or thumbs down...it is hard.)

10/07 145.8 Back from my honeymoon. Did not take a scale. Up about 4 lbs. Did stay active, just ate a lot of rich foods and larger portions. Goal for this round is to see 144.
10/08 144.6 small breakfast, smoothie for lunch and bigger protein dinner felt good yesterday.
10/09 145.0 was craving sugar so bad yesterday. Will get back to my lunch smoothie today that seems to curb it with yummy mango & pineapple & spinach.

GOAL: 209
Oct 7: W 214. DOWNWARD!! Back on track, no w/o, stuck to allowed food choices, did have some wine in the late afternoon. Just about finished my book about weight loss mind techniques. Got some sun too!!.
Oct 8: W 213. Definitely need to continue the water, and review my 'why's' card when I feel like waivering. No w/o today.
Oct 9: W 212, RIGHT BACK WHERE I STARTED!! I feel good, did a w/o, for some reason I finished all the chocolate I have.
Oct 10: W 213. Looking at my food diary and the results of weight and blood glucose I realise that my body is supremely sensitive to my choices. IT'S JUST A FACT, NOT A JUDGEMENT.

I have lost 15 pounds in 330 days (33 rounds)
This will be my 34th round
Day, Weight, Comment
10/04 - 143.5 - I gained 1.1 pounds in the last round. Going to work to undo that.
10/05 - 143.1 - Good to see a modest loss
10/06 - 142.1 - Getting closer to September's numbers. When I came back from 2 weeks of holidays and went back to work (stress) I really gained. Glad that it is starting to even out.
10/07 - 141.5 - yay
10/08 - 139.6 - Fun to see that number although it doesn't seem real. We'll see tomorrow.
10/09 - 141.3 - All good with today's number, but really happy to have touched the 130s once. Exciting to think that I can get into that next decade.
10/10 - 142.3 - All over the place with fluctuations, no reason for this gain. I was hoping for a nice low number today before I go into 3 days of (Canadian) Thanksgiving food.

Day/Weight/Comment
10/04- 189.2 I ate a salty snack last night after a couple of drinks with friends. Obviously here it is on the scale! Back on track today, target calories all week is 1350, no alcohol and keep up my steps. Estimated cals yesterday : 1588.
10/05- 189.4 hiked 5 miles yesterday in the beautiful weather. I saw that my BF% was down a lot on the scale so a lot of water hanging around still. Hoping for better weigh in tomorrow. Estimated cals yesterday: 1282
10/06- 187.2 now that's more like it. Finally the whoosh. Estimated calories yesterday: 1473 little higher than I wanted, I'm trying to adjust my macros a bit to have more protein.
10/07-186.8 great can it stay now? Estimated cals yesterday ended up going over AGAIN, I even preplanned my day but was hit by a migraine in the afternoon and was comfort eating. (~1675, still well below maintenance, but!)
10/08- 187. 8 answer to above question: no. Calories came in at 1706, I'm struggling a bit with staying on target, not sure why. Maybe I was just feeling deprived a little, and giving a bit more wiggle room to make me feel like I can make it a lifetime not just a diet. Already got my steps in for today, 2.45 miles in the beautiful 70 degree sunshine with my dog.
10/09- 187.0/186.8 my scale couldn't decide. lol I'm going with the lower. total cals yesterday 1638. ladies happy hour tonight so saving my calories for that. Happy Friday y'all !
10/10 186.4 I thought my scale would be up due to salty dinner out last night, really hard to estimate calories but I did the best I could. maybe 2000? drinking water today as I have a bit of a headache.

Better day yesterday in terms of food, though I did have some air-popped popcorn in the evening. I spent most of the day painting our interior doors 🚪, which I find very calming and meditative. I seem to be nesting like crazy! It’s cold and rainy this morning — a good day to stay in and do the final coat and then curl up to read or knit. ☕️🛋📚 Have a lovely day, all!
10/5 - 182.4 - 1534 - 🍌
Bump from a few days ago, I’m sure. Chilly & foggy this morning, but it’s supposed to warm up and be back in the 60-70s the rest of the week. Good — I have a couple hundred bulbs to plant! (I went a little nuts at the bulb store!) I finished painting all the hallway doors on the hallway side. Today I need to do a few room-side doors, and maybe start on the armoire I’m making into a pantry. Wheee! Keeps me from sitting around munching — maybe I should do more of the same at night! 😁 Anyway, happy Monday, all!
10/6 - 182 - 1701 - 🍨🍿☹️
Ok, I snacked last night. I also took a nice long walk, and was active most of the day, so not too bad. Today will be better! And I’m off to vote — first day of early voting here in Indiana. Then I’m planning to putter in the garden a bit, and go for a walk, and make a pot of minestrone. Anything to avoid my real work (writing), which I can do when it’s gray and gloomy and cold.

10/7 - 182 - 1550 - late lunch, late supper
Yesterday was a strange day — waited three hours to vote, but the crowd was inspiring, so that was fine. Schedule was off the rest of the day, though. It’s gorgeous and warm today — yay!
10/8 - 181.8 - 1308 - 🍿
Ok, I behaved myself pretty well yesterday. I did indulge in some popcorn, but overall my numbers were good, and I spent lots of time working in the garden. All good. I’m really enjoying these gorgeous October days!
10/9 - 181.6 - 1637 - 🍿
Wow, another gorgeous day here. I’m counting my lucky stars, knowing that many people are living with disasters. I hope you’re all safe. This afternoon my creativity group of four is meeting, probably our last in-person gathering for a while unless we have a warmer-than-usual start to November. We can zoom, but it’s not the same. Sigh. Anyway, I’m baking maple pecan cookies (70 cal each) and I’m sure there will be other munchies, so I have to watch myself. This morning, post cookies, I’m going to start planting my bulbs. I went a little crazy buying bulbs, so my work is cut out for me! 🙂 And yes, @quiltingjaine , I will sit my fanny down and write. A little. 🤓
10/10 - 183 😳 - 1925 best guess 🙄 - snacks galore
I munched way too much during my group’s Last get together of the year (unless Nov is really warm!). Our host had mimosas for us — usually we drink coffee! — and lots of salty and sweet treats, plus my cookies. I ate more chips than I’ve eaten in the past year, and crap I never eat, like candy corn. I could seem to stifle myself. Oh, well. Life goes on, and I know this quick gain is water and my calorie average over the past week is ok. I had a low cal breakfast and have the day planned and will try hard to stick with the plan. Have a good weekend, everyone. I’m off for a walk, then planting my 200+ bulbs.

So very happy that this challenge is still going strong! The last time I did this was years ago and it worked so well. I stopped for a variety of reasons but am excited to be back!!
I anticipate some quick weight loss in #s this first week since I am looking to cut out (again) major foods that sincerely do not agree well with my body and leave me swollen and generally feeling unwell.
Goal: 5lbs - not sure if that’s too ambitious, but we will see. I have a lot of deflating to do !!
Day/Weight/Comment
10/04 - 178.5 so swollen today, looking forward to progress.
10/05 - 176.5 - starting the process to find my real current weight, usually takes a day or two to get rid of swelling
10/06 - 173.5 - I technically hit my goal but in all honesty I got food poisoning yesterday.. I expect an increase in a few days lol
10/07 - 175.5 - seems more accurate .. finally ate food last night 👍
10/08 - 172.5 not sure what’s happening .. I’ve cut out those things that don’t agree with me but I think I just need to give this at least a week to understand where my real weight is at!!
10/09 - 175.5 again. My scale only goes by 0.5.
10/10 - 174.5 🤷🏻♀️

@Lilylady3k You will probably need to make other modifications regarding the coconut flour. I absorbs liquid where almond flour doesn’t and will make a difference in your end product. Refined coconut OIL doesn’t taste like coconut, why can’t they do that to the flour??4

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.

10/4 112.0 WHOA! I have no idea! Delayed reaction to the 42 hour fast last week? I had hardly eaten today and wasn’t hungry but I ate something and now I’m miserable. I slept about an hour longer than usual which made me run late for breakfast with neighbors, the coffee cake I was making wasn’t done. Oh well! AF
10/5 115.5 LOL I thought that scale was crazy yesterday. Guess I was right! It’s all good! DH also had odd weigh ins. I think the scale was messing with us! AF Gym 351 cal
10/6 115.0 AF
10/7 114.5 Odd day yesterday, I considered fasting but too many leftovers so I made a taco salad and that was my OMAD then I ate some keto apple crisp for dessert and was stuffed! AF
10/8 116.5 Expected increase, Greek salad with gyro and 1/2 pita for dinner yesterday. AF Awake today at 4:27AM! Toooo early!
**After 10 cups of coffee and the TMI visit, I just go on the scale and weigh 116.0. That’s what getting up early does! Not AF
10/9 117.5 Totally not surprised. Lunch with neighbor ladies at a Mexican restaurant. Taco salad - no beans but the meat mixture was creamy so I wonder if refried beans were in it, plus I ate some chips and part of the bowl. Going to visit friends at the lake today after the gym. Awake at 4:30 again, got up at 5:20. Slight headache, gone now
10/10 117.0 Slept until 6:30 Went to bed late but went right to sleep snd slept through. Eating was good yesterday. Pork belly is very satisfying and sticks with you. May have to buy more of that in the future!7 -
Round 128
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 4”
SW: 163
CW: 150.4
GW: 145
UGW: 130
GW for this round: 148
Round 126 (1): 156 to 153.2 (-2.8 lbs)
Round 127 (2): 153.2 to 150.4 (-2.8 lbs)
10/04 - 150.4 - Continuing to hold steady from the end of the last round. Feeling great - I chopped my hair off last night and I don’t think I did that bad of a job! Got out for a run this morning and will be meal prepping this afternoon.
10/05 - 151.0 - The only reason I can think of for this gain is water weight - so hopefully I’ve got a whoosh coming in my future! I ran about 2 miles yesterday, then did a 3+ mile family hike (pushing 70+ lbs of kids and stroller), so I know I came in under calories since I didn’t eat differently from usual. I did my regular workout this morning and will track carefully this week.
10/06 - 150.4 - And back down again. Pretty tired this morning- feeling very heavy and low on energy. I took the kids out to a nearby garden this morning and let them run and play - really hoping that means a good nap for the toddler and an easier afternoon.
10/07 - 150.0 - Oooo, so close! I haven’t seen below 150 since my almost 5 year old was born. (Of course, by saying this I’ve guaranteed it will go back up tomorrow, right?) Tweaked something in my back yesterday which made sleep hard, but feeling better this morning.
10/08 - 149.6 - *happy dance* I can do this! I am doing it, and I will keep doing it! Yay!
10/09 - 149.4 - Very happy that the scale stayed under 150. We had takeout burgers and fries for dinner last night, and while I tried to keep mine reasonably healthy (switched the burger to a grilled chicken breast, only ate half and gave myself a fixed portion of fries) I was expecting the sodium to push the scale number up. Didn’t do as much Ring Fit this morning since I got up a little late, but we’ve been out for a long walk and will spend most of today outside given the nice cool weather and clean air!
10/10 - 149.2 - I am definitely noticing a difference in how my body feels when I exercise after a poor night’s sleep vs a good one. Woke up at 3 AM and couldn’t fall back asleep - finally got out of bed at 5:30. Dragged myself through Ring Fit but it didn’t feel energizing like it usually does. Hopefully the coffee will help since I’ve got a bunch of things to do around the house this morning, then going to an outdoor wine tasting that I’m SUPER excited about.

10/04- 165.4 Did not expect to up any, did not eat all day yesterday and only got a small salad late last night.
10/05- 166.3 Well, that was a leap.
10/06- 165.5 Ok, headed back down. Need to keep that up.
10/07- 165.9 Well damn!
10/08- 166.5 Alright, that's about enough of that. I have to figure this out, maybe salt!
10/09- 166.3 At least its not up more.
10/10- 165.2 Going in the right direction again, just hoping I don't end this weighing more than I started.

10/05- Paddling along. Nothing to log.
10/06- 94.8 Weigh day! As expected the new scale is clearly showing a lower number. Still nice to see it even if I know it's fake 😅 will not make Mini GW2 until I see this number dropping.
10/07- Feeling tired, but feeling I am getting good routines in. Routines I couldn't sustain before. New world
10/08- Keep on going. Taking walks, that's about all the sports I am getting latetly
