    Ended September challenge at 202.4 (9/27/20)

    OCTOBER 2020

    Sunday 10/4 199.8 -2.6 lbs
    Sunday 10/11 194.8 -5.0 lbs
    Sunday 10/18 194.4 -0.4 lbs
    Sunday 10/25

    *Goals for this month: Tighten the reigns on what I’m eating when not fasting. I stick to keto foods always, but have occasionally been going over the amount of calories that I should or need. Also would like to try a back to back 72 hr extended fast (72 EF, eat OMAD, 72 EF). And last but not least, would like to end the month in the 80’s.

    Good luck to all with your October goals! We got this!!

    Back in the saddle again here on week three of October. My on again, off again trends have been bad this year. I've used a ton of excuses this year to explain my up and down trends. I’d like to say, “No more excuses”, but my results kind of prove the facts have made me eat my words over and over this year. Evidently my words are non-keto and high calorie. Ha :D

    As the end of the year approaches fast, I can’t afford to keep eating my own words. I will just let results do my speaking. See you all next Sunday and I’ll let my weight change do my talking for me.

    Not entirely sure what happened this week. Looking back on my diary, carbs were higherish than they have been. But nothing crazy high (28-39 total). Frustrating week!

    OCTOBER 2020

    Thurs 10/1: 211.6
    Sunday 10/4: 211.2
    Sunday 10/11: 215

    I'm embarrassed by the numbers here. My lowest weight pre-covid was 193. My highest Covid weight was 219.4. I gained 26.4 lbs this year and I'm having a hell of a time getting it back off. Each week is a yo-yo. I'm good Monday to Wednesday and the fall off of the wagon Thursday - Sunday. The worst part is - for the first time in my life - I'm apathetic about it. I just can't seem to find my motivation to care. I'm hoping posting here will give me some spark of motivation so that I can get back on track.

    Thinking my +.4 last week was monthly bloat. Hopefully I can get another couple off by Saturday, and finish the month strong!!

    I am so frustrated. I have no idea what is going on this month. Just yo-yoing all over the place, and I have no real justifications for it. This month I am going to get back to weighing and measuring portions, just to see if I have gotten a little off with eyeballing. That's all I can think of.
