    Thanks Jayne for starting this challenge.
    Round 148
    12 April - April20
    My third round . Starting week 3 with keto with if. I’m still learning how to eat with this wol but learning to cook again instead of relying on processed meals and convenience.

    Goals: stay in my macros
    Low carb under 20 grams
    Drink my water.
    Exercise 4x week to daily
    Round 146 -8.6lbs 253.2
    Round 147 -5 lbs (13.6) 247.2
    Round 148 247.2
    Goal is 4lbs
    04/22 245.6(-1.6). Nice whoosh.
    04/23 245.2(-2lbs)
    04/24 245.6
    04/25 246 very bad day at work . Covid🦠😡. I ended drink a Diet Pepsi which I gave up a month ago. There was pizza brought in but I resisted.
    04/26 244.4
    04/27 245.6 . I overdid it with carbs ( 26g vs my usual below 20). It was grilled vegetables but carbs are carbs , and I think I’m holding water so pushing that today. I did get 30 min exercise in . Today’s busy I have chicks coming from Virginia tommorow so need to get my brooder set up today .

    04/30 - 146.9 - I give up trying to figure this out.... I expected to be up today. Last night I had homemade bulgolgi and a large portion of it, too. I splurged and had like 6 potstickers. I had a beer for NFL Draft Day Round 1. All the things that would normally put me up have brought me back down. What?! Anyway, yesterday I went on a run. A full mile without stopping. Last time I did that was 2017. I hate running. It was raining. But my mind would NOT let it go so I did it. Felt good. Very had. I'm proud. Drank my 90oz water, got my 16 hour fast in (I finally remembered to track it!). Hopefully today goes super well and I can stick to good food so I can maybe, just maybe, see 145 again tomorrow. Don't have high hopes. Probably be up. Girl can dream.

    Previous Day's Comments
    04/22 - Wow, I expected a bump up. I was STARVING at dinner and ate a little extra to satisfy my belly. I figured it'd bump me up, even if only slightly. Very pleasant surprise indeed. Fasted 16hrs, short on water, only got 65oz. Did get my workout in, though, which was wonderful. Hopefully this round will show some improvement, I'd love to be below 145 again. It IS a bit elusive....
    04/23 - Lack of water causing water weight/bloat. Expected, plans were unknown to me so I couldn't plan ahead and make sure I had water with me. Only drank about 35oz plain water yesterday. Pushing water this morning to try to overcome. Yesterday I had another day I was extremely hungry and had to eat extra to feel satiated. Just trying to listen to my body and know it'll pass and things will settle back to normal soon enough. Hormones are goofy and I just need to be aware is all (: Not mad at it.
    04/24 - DNP
    04/25 - Busy busy, go go go. Just wanted to check in so nobody worried. All good here. I'll be back to normal weigh in tomorrow!
    04/26 - No hugs, I'm quite happy this wasn't higher after the weekend I had. Lots of manual labor, sleep was all kinds of wonky, could't keep up hydration as well as I'd like, and food was prepackaged on the go so we didn't have to keep going back into town. Hopefully today is calm enough I can focus on water. I'm postponing my workout (again.... I didn't get it on Friday as we left waaaay earlier than I anticipated) so I can rehydrate and rest my body after the manual labor this weekend.
    04/27 - Inching back down. Got 65oz water and made homemade Chicken Tikka Masala and Naan bread for dinner. I'm feeling the bit of heaviness I usually do after Indian-style food, but my measurements show I've lost 1/2in off my belly pooch area, which is good. Unfortunately I have a busy busy work day suddenly pop up so my workout has been postponed. Hopefully I can still manage something this afternoon. Supposed to be rainy the next 3 days so maybe I'll get lucky to sneak in a walk or something if I can't get my 9Round in. Focus today will be getting my 90oz water while on meetings! Need to stop being too lazy or distracted to refill water bottle
    04/28 - Managed to get my 90 oz in and got a short walk with the pup. Neighborhood isn't big so I'm lucky to get between 0.75-0.9mi in with her. Nothing to brag about but some movement is still movement and I'll take it.
    04/29 - Not quite sure what this is about? We had a fairly heavy dinner, maybe? It was early, but doesn't mean it couldn't have impact. Got my 90oz water. Got a walk in with the pup though she cut it short because she decided to try something new: escape from her harness and run away. I caught her, thankfully, but had to stop our walk to carry her home (didn't trust her not to do it again). Then the rain came so no more walks. Need to figure out how I can get the harness so it doesn't restrict breathing or movements but is tight enough she can't slip out. Apparently I have a houdini dog....

    Day/Weight/Comment
    04/21 …..207.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
    04/22 …..207.2 ….. After travel yesterday. Meal out was small and healthy but I could have done without the dense dessert. I should have resisted harder. I hope more will not creep up on the scale in the days to come since it sometimes shows up later. More travel today for Covid shot #2. Only about 3-4 hours out total so I will keep my meals at home which will really help. Time to get this done!

    04/23 …..208.6 …..

    04/24 …..206.6 ….. I’m feeling much better today. I was very disoriented yesterday and bloated with the extra water intake after the vaccination. A full day planned today including a tree service cutting down some trees. I will be part of the clean-up crew so I will get in lots of movement today.

    04/25 …..206.0 ….. Just over 27,000 steps, over 11 miles and nearly 4000 calories burned so I worked hard in the yard for this downward trend. Downside? Got eat up with gnat bites. No sleep last night. Nothing I tried stopped the itching. I am high allergic to their bites so I am miserable right now with another full day of outside work ahead of me. My right eye is swollen shut. Joy!

    04/26 …..204.0 ….. Wow! I was pleasantly shocked at the scale. This extensive yardwork after the trees were removed is really paying off. It’s also keeping things moving right along in the TMI (bathroom) dept. Finished with the clean up now so I won’t be burning 4000 calories a day anymore, but there’s always something I can do out there. I just often need help and I need to keep the crew on the reno projects. I’ll still get my rear end out there and burn something extra everyday. Rain and thunderstorms next 3 days though. Maybe I’ll just do the happy dance inside about the scale progress!

    04/27 …..205.4 ….. I think the sudden drops just adjusted themselves so I am okay with this. Weight is still down 1.6 lbs from challenge start. Fat percentage is down (including overnight). My trend weight is continuing down, even with today’s scale read. I had a glucose drop yesterday that I caught quickly before it raged out of control. I corrected it easily and without too many calories or carbs. I slept very good last night with 6 hours which is about 2 hours more than normal. So I know all is well. There was less movement due to rainy weather and some outdoor work being done by the excavating company. However, overall, I am so very very pleased with the progress. My birthday is coming in May. My gift (I hope) to myself is continued progress. Thai food is scheduled for dinner tonight. I will split it in half and eat the rest tomorrow. Pushing water for the impending sodium.

    04/28 …..205.6 ….. I didn’t get my Thai food afterall. Apparently the restaurant was closed for a deep cleaning. Divine intervention? I think so! Was starving with no meal planned but I managed to eat proper foods, (just a bit much on the quantity). My son and I took a nice little walk to go pick up my car that was back in the shop. We checked out our new neighborhood. I didn’t realize the horrid incline to get back out. My legs and feet were fine. Even my knees were okay. But my breathing was tough. I had to stop a few times. Very different than my old neighborhood but it offers me a challenge and a goal. My weight trend continues to improve. I am down 1.9% in my body fat in just 2 weeks. My weight is continuing to trend down. Now it says I will reach my goal by 2023 instead of 2054 and 2036 and all those other ridiculous numbers. My trend weight is at its lowest in 13 weeks!

    04/29 …..207.2 ….. What?????? Oatmeal for breakfast yesterday, all non-starch veggies for dinner with lite sour cream on some sweet potato. The only thing I can suspect is the sunflower seed kernals (carefully measured out) that were salted for my night snack. Tomorrow will tell if this is temporary water retention from the salt or weight from the fats in the sunflower kernals.

    04/30 …..206.2 ….. So frustrated with this process! Middle of the night I experienced a very severe glucose episode. At first it felt like a drop. It started with the unreasonable savage hunger then I went into the feeling drunk and staggering mode. I quickly checked my sugar before stuffing face and it’s a good thing I did. The last thing I needed was food! My sugar was at 565 (should be 80-90). Feeding a low sugar is easy but lowering it when you’ve already taken your meds is very difficult, especially when you cannot think straight. I gulped some apple cider vinegar and went outside in the dark and walked back and forth in my yard. Finally I remembered some old meds I still had (from before weight loss) and took one of those in combo with my regular meds. Finally I lowered to 200. Obviously no sleep last night. Everytime I try to tweak my diet a bit more, I have to deal with these diabetic issues which can be very scary. I’ve got to get past these obstacles, these hurdles. Weight loss will only help my diabetes, if only my body would stop going into survival mode! My scale is at a one pound drop today which I kind of expected after the salty snack caused an increase yesterday. I will celebrate the loss and tread lightly today. Hair appointment day today so there will be lots of sitting. I will try to get in some movement tonight.

    05/01 …..xxxxx …..

    04/22 194.1 Hopeful
    04/23 195.3 I had Chinese food so I am not surprised by the slight gain. Speaking about successes though my scale has not changed much in the past couple of months but I have noticed more definition in some of limbs particularly my legs and waist lately. This morning I watched a youtube video on belly dancing less cardio but more strength training.

    04/28 194.8 Really busy the last few days.
    04/29 196.2 I had hot dogs last night and they really are very fatty but once and awhile is okay. This week and I have not been home to cook, even last night was dinner on the fly.
    04/30 197 Started off doing really well yesterday but large bag of popcorn and too much candy stayed with me.

    I am a 20 year old college student who recently let themselves go over quarantine as well as the freshman 15 and I'm hoping to lose some of that weight before my third year roles around. My overall goals over these challenges are to better my relationship with exercise and food while losing some pounds in the process
    Round 146: -5.1lbs
    Round 147: -0.3lbs

    SW: 181.1lbs
    CW: 175.7lbs
    GW: 160lbs before August 2021

    Day/Weight/Comment
    04/22: DNW due to broken scale. New one due to come on Sunday,
    04/23: DNW. Hoping to see some big losses once the new one comes!!
    04/24: DNW. New scale comes in tomorrow but I won't be able to weigh in the morning like I usually do, so tomorrow's total may be high.
    04/25: 174.4... not bad considering this was done mid-day after two meals! It'll be interesting to see what tomorrow mornings weight will be.
    04/26: 173.2... great, now if we could just hit 171 I'll officially hit 15lbs lost from my heaviest. The last few pounds always seem to be the most stubborn.
    04/27: 173.6
    04/28: 172.4...so close to 15!!
    04/29: 172.4... hoping to drop a couple more in the next few days and get a low total for this round
    04/30: 172.2... I had a REALLY bad eating day today so I'm hoping it doesn't put tomorrow's final score up by even more.

    musicsax;c-45942066"]JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~|~ Round 148 (round 80 for me ) I prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.

    Female age 63 5' 4” - Challenge for this round; need to continue to get back to maintenance weight– get back to and stay at or >130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines in roadmap to normality for C-19 virus. Be positive for the vaccine – I've had my first, spread positivity and encouragement for it to others.

    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

    exercise.png
    04/24 133.8 – 14.51 miles walked yesterday, 247 calories in credit.
    04/25 DNW – yesterday and today we are travelling up at DS's house to help to build new bedroom furniture for DGD's new bedroom and then freshening up the nursery for new baby DGC due in 4 weeks, so we shall not only be getting no structured walking, but also not in control of the menus. I'll try not to not go overboard!
    04/26 133.2 – 267 calories over, back home now and getting back on track to see a difference for the round.

    Main goal(s) - 1. Count calories even when with partner/at social events, even if it’s not perfect an estimate is better than nothing! 2. Don’t allow a little slip up or not being able to track properly to derail me

    F - 5”3’ - UK

    GW:125

    Round 147 (1) - SW 164.2 EW 164.6 (+0.4)

    04/22 - 163.8 repairing the damage from last week! Determined not to have a repeat
    04/23 - 162.4 going in the right direction :)
    04/24 - 161.4 very happy with this! My partner came over unexpectedly last night and we had a campfire dinner and I managed to track well :)
    04/25 - 161.4 happy to stay the same as yesterday, had a few treats with my partner but again tracked them well which is a big plus for me
    04/26 - away but feeling positive about choices and progress
    04/27 - 161.2 - very happy :) expecting a bit of a rise tomorrow because I need to weigh in earlier before work but let’s see how it goes!
    04/28 - 160.8 - delighted! Wasn’t expecting that after an early morning weigh in. Also should’ve mentioned I had a great weekend making campfires and having dinner with a very good friend. Wonderful!
    04/29 - 159.6 - wow shocked by this! Very positive, may be some water fluctuation so will prepare for some levelling out but hopefully that’s me into the 50’s now!
    04/30 - 159.6 - very very happy to stay the same ☺️ hopeful I’ll stay in the 150’s now, day off of work tomorrow too so I’ll weigh in later. I do have a busy weekend planned with a bbq and a camping trip so this will be the real test!
    05/1 - 159.2 - yes! What a magical end to a fantastic round, see you all on round 149! ❤️

    My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of gaining, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

    I’m setting a new goal for the coming 6 months to get myself back to my old walking habit — 1,000 miles by Halloween, with monthly increases in daily and weekly distance goals. I used to walk 6-8+ miles almost every day, and got out of the habit 3 years ago when PMR practically immobilized me with pain. Now’s the time!

    4/23 - 187.6 - 1557
    Off to get some pavers for a path through my new side garden. Also known as weight training! Happy Friday, all!

    4/24 - 188.4 - 1647
    Oopsie. Was hungry after lugging pavers! This morning I’m off to buy soil. Whee!

    4/25 - 188.2 - 1601
    I didn’t walk yesterday — upset stomach that I didn’t trust — but I did schlep a dozen bags of soil Into the car, car to wheelbarrow, and then into the new garden bed, so that’s something at least.

    4/26 - 187.8 - 1442
    It’s finally warming up - yay! I have lots of work to do in the garden, expanding a couple of beds, laying brick edging....keeps me (mostly) out of trouble. 😇

    4/27 - 187.6 - 1418
    I laid about 3/4 of my new slate pathway through my new side garden yesterday. Off to buy another load of pavers in a bit, and then I can hit the nursery for plants. This is my happy place! 🌷🌼🦋🌻🕸🌹🐞🪴 I am planning a nice long walk this afternoon. I missed yesterday’s walk as a friend I haven’t seen in forever dropped by and time got away from us!

    4/28 - 189 - 1426
    Aww, come on. How does this make any sense? I didn’t count miles yesterday but walked quite a bit and worked a lot lifting and digging in rock pavers and otherwise gardening. Has to be water, but why? Ppffttt.

    4/29 - 187 - 1246
    Finally. I got about half my new stone pathway laid yesterday morning before the rain. Great weight training!

    4/30 - 187 - 1477
    Didn’t April just start? Where did it go? ⏳🕰⏰⏱⌛️

    5/01 - 187.4 - 1851
    Welcome to the lusty month of May! (Any Camelot fans out there?) I count this round a success (though I still resent the 4# bump the new batteries gave me on the scale!) as I feel more active, more in control of my food most days, and am down half a pound. Now to crank up my walking program.... See you in R149.

    I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

    Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

    04/22: 210.4
    Well, there’s a fine how do you do. Down 4 pounds in the past two days and I cannot really pin-point a reason. Probably lower carbs and I processed a lot of water (in AND out) yesterday. I think I will try that again today.

    04/23: 211.4
    Going out with friends tonight, so I will try to behave before that.

    04/24: 214.0
    There is no doubt in my mind that this is just the dead weight of what I shoved in my mouth yesterday.

    04/25: 213

    04/26: 213.4
    Oops, forgot to post yesterday. Busy weekend!

    04/27: 213.8
    It’s pretty well established that my maintenance range is 210-215. I look like a yo-yo going up and down in that range. That is ten pounds above my goal maintenance range as stated above. I am happy that I can maintain at this current level with minimal effort. I am NOT happy that I am happy with minimal effort in this area...

    04/28: 213.0

    04/29: 212.2
    Ate reasonably, but still not much of an exercise program going. Two days ago, I went back the gym where my membership has been frozen for a year, to see if any of my group exercise classes are up and running. Nope. I love group spinning classes like RPM and Sprint. They have one class offered mid day and you need to wear a mask. (I can barely breath without a mask during these classes, Ha)

    Dropped by another gym to see what’s going on. Nuthin.

    I do better in groups (like jgmtd) but it’s clear I need to exhibit some self-discipline and figure something out. Maybe some weight training is what I need more anyway.

    04/30: 211.0
    Ate well, mowed the grass (walking) and took a nice walk with DW.

    05/01: 211.0
    Welp, I reached both goals posted above, but not without underwhelming performance in the middle of the round. Onward and downward.
