Day/Weight/Comment
6/16 184.2 (+.6)
6/17 183.4 (-.8)
6/18 183.2 (-.2) Got busy at work and didn't log my numbers, but I am tracking and wrote them in my journal. I have to keep telling myself if I lose 1 lb per week for 50 weeks, I'll be down 50 pounds and at a healthy, comfortable weight. The old diet mentality makes me want to see big losses on the scale and I know that is not the way to create sustainable, lifetime habits. Played pickleball this morning and now off for a 20 mile bike ride. Enjoy the weekend everyone!
6/19 183.2 Today was another beautiful day. Got in a 4 mile hike and then celebrated Father's Day with husband and family. Overdid it a bit on calories, but hoping the damage won't be too bad.
6/20 183.8 (+.6) well--this could have been worse, but I need to get in the calorie range today and get some exercise.

I'm in for my first challenge! Thanks for this. I've been an MFP member for years and successfully lost the weight I wanted in the past. However, in recent years, I haven't been as disciplined. I'm in a holding pattern. I lose weight during the week but gain it back over the weekend. I may do a long bike ride (e.g. 50 miles) with my husband on a Saturday, but we also like to check out music at local breweries afterwards. Need I say more?
SW: 147 on 6/15
Day/Weight/Comment- 6/16: 146 - Planned my day's meals yesterday and actually stuck to it. Thanks for the challenge! Hoping to do the same today.
- 6/17 (Friday): 147.8 - We went out for dinner last night. The food was salty and I had two craft beers (which are high in calories). I'm cooking tonight!
- 6/18 (Saturday): ? - Cycled the Capitol trail from Jamestown to Richmond and spent the night.
- 6/19 (Sunday): ?- Cycled the Capitol trail from Richmond to Jamestown.
- 6/20 (Monday): 148.6 - WHY do I gain weight after burning 1,000s of calories over the weekend? ... I did not track my food. Starting over again!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16 / 158.6 / Busy days at work. I got lots of steps as I did a few meetings as walks with my staff. It worked out well.
6/17 / 159 / Got lots done today in work and around the house. Even rode the Peloton before work started. Off to Vegas in the morning.
6/18 / 160.8 / On the plane to Vegas just waiting to take off. It's going to be much warmer than I'm used to! So excited.
6/19 / DNW / Great first full day in Vegas. We have walked so many steps already. I also was able to use the gym at our hotel this morning before we started our day. The food and drinks have been indulgent so I'm glad we're moving a lot at least.
6/20 / DNW / Hoping to hit the gym again today before the day gets going. Plans for a magic show today if we get tickets. Temperature is to continue getting warmer but so far the heat just feels nice although I did get a bit of heat rash on my legs yesterday. It has been good to walk in the evenings - so pleasant out!

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16 231.0 Ugh. Been letting job stress get to me and not sleeping well. Time to buckle down and break this plateau this round. Welcome new friends!
6/17 230.6 I’m approaching a problematic place. Feeling really discouraged on this plateau and didn’t bother to log in until mid-afternoon, where normally I’m on first thing in the morning logging breakfast. I must keep looking forward. I’ve been in this place before and given up, but I’m not going back this time.
6/18 230.8
6/19 230.2
6/20 231.0 Trying to lower my carb intake and see what that does for this plateau. Father’s Day yesterday didn’t help, and today’s my son’s birthday. But I’m doing my best.

06/15 …..206.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/16 …..204.2 ….. (Trend weight 205.0)
06/17 …..203.2 ….. (Trend weight 204.8)
06/18 …..205.2 ….. (Trend weight 204.8) Closed out with great numbers last night, then had a glucose drop and ate a large bowl of cereal with low carb Fairlife milk very late last night. Showed up as 2 pounds this morning! No worries, still feeling this out and navigating how to work around my health issues. My resolve is still very strong.
06/19 …..203.0 ….. (Trend weight 204.7) A big drop overnight. I have to wonder how much my puff ups are from water retention based on the heart issues and how much the drops are from the water pill. I take the water pill about every other day except when traveling (for obvious reasons.). I’m going to be tracking this trend. I did take one yesterday. On another note, yesterday was a great day. My glucose drops tend to come more in the evening or at night so I delayed my meals all day. Breakfast at 11:30 am, lunch at 5:00 pm and dinner at 10:30 pm. I hated to eat that late (due to morning weigh-ins) but it seems to have worked. No drop last night and satisfied most of the day. I even fit in some exercise. About 17 min of aerobic dancing, a short 15 minute walk with inclines and stationary bike for 10 minutes. Keeping it safe until I know more about the heart situation, but it’s a start!
06/20 …..204.0 ….. (Trend weight 204.6) This has been my best week in a long time as far as determination goes. I dropped 1.6 lbs, but more importantly, my resolve has been pretty good. I am navigating what is working best for me. In the past I have done strict Keto and changing over to calories in/calories out with a watchful eye on my carb intake is definitely different, but I’m figuring it all out. I am also focusing on spreading my food out better to prevent night time binges, and eating slower. I have been treating all my food like it’s popcorn (you know how we stuff our mouths full?). Eating is not a race and who gets done first should have stopped by the end of grammar school! I ate back my calories of exercise last night and I see what happened with the scale, even though I was in the green. Learning……

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16: 132.1 - Had my second shingles shot yesterday afternoon and feeling achy and maybe a slight touch of fever last night and this morning. Hopefully it will clear up soon so I can get my workout in today. I think most of the drop is water weight since I had to get up several times in the night.
6/17: 131.8 - Did get a small workout in yesterday, but pretty much sat around all day feeling achy. Ate mostly carbs and fat so surprised at the drop.
6/18: 132.3 - Didn’t get my usual Jazzercise workout in, so went for a 5.5 mile hike instead. Had takeout for the first time in a really, really long time.
6/19: 132.9 - Got my normal workout in and a walk. Dinner was leftover takeout. Sort of busy day at home making 4 boules of different types of sourdough bread and sticky buns for father's day. The sticky buns were okay, but something went wrong along the way and they didn't quite come together as in the past times I've made them.
6/20: 132.7 - 3 sticky buns consumed yesterday. Salad for dinner. Barely, barely stayed under my calories shockingly. Didn’t do my usual Jazzercise workout since my cousin dropped by unexpectedly so we ended up walking on the trail and the neighborhood for a little over 6.5 miles.

@ashleycarole86 The weather has been beautiful here (Las Vegas) and relatively no wind. We have had multiple “wind events” every week since early March. So much dust in the air that we can’t see the mountains across the valley. Even when the temperature soars, the lack of humidity make it bearable! Our older daughter keeps telling me I’m going to shrivel up. LOL
@musicsax Is it humid where you are? 29c or 84F sounds delightful unless the humidity is 95%.3 -

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.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

6/16 119.0 GKI 8.1 Bingo last night was fun. Chicken salad and egg salad sliders - I skipped the bread, did eat a tiny bag of potato chips and about 1T of vanilla ice cream. Took my own keto cake and berries for dessert.
6/17 119.5 GKI 7.6 Not sure if it’s the extreme heat or what but I have been craving salt. Not worried.
6/18 118.5 GKI 8.1 OMAD was brisket from Dickey’s. The sign says “NEW OWNER-Better Food” but we don’t agree and won’t be making that 25 mile round trip again.

6/20 119.5 GKI. 6.7 BBQ at a new to us place with DD#2 and family. I ate a little Mac and cheese - first macaroni in 5 years! It was SOOOO cheese I could easily have gone totally off the rails but I didn’t.5 -

6/16 - 172.3* - 22,500 / 159. I am half way through my June watch challenge and I am just over my kms but its going to be hard to finish. Right now it says I need to do 13.1 km/day. I have 3 days that I am going to be pretty busy and getting 13 kms in could be hard. I'm not sure my watch knows that I have a desk job!! I'm looking forward to seeing some 6's .... Welcome all to the challenge!! Let's do this!!
6/17 - 171.1 - 17,100 / 100. Went to Costco it's out of town but did manage to get a few good steps in.
6/18 - 169.7* - 14,600. / 108. Happy to see that 6! Treated myself to a pedicure, very happy feet. Now I’m going to go push them and go for a long walk. Sorry feet! My oldest is in Vegas this weekend sending me lots of pictures of fun and sun. I am quite jealous. 4 years ago I was in Vegas and 19 lbs lighter. … I WILL BE THERE AGAIN! Well maybe not Vegas but some kind of a vacation. Have a wonderful Saturday All.
6/19 - 168* - 36,200 / 248. Got in a good walk 23 km. Then what I call a hot sauna bath and after made cookies for an upcoming Celebration of Life I’ve got some more to make and only tested 2!! Most of this loss is water and TMI and a balancing of some jump ups. Happy Father’s Day too all the Dads out there.
6/20 - 167.2 - 29,500 / 197. Had a good walk visited my Dad had a good dinner and an adult beverage. Looks like I need to adjust my calories and exercise calories. Have some concerns.

One good thing about very hot weather—I don’t feel like eating much, and I crave light salads rather than fat. 😁

Tonight is our obedience club’s awards banquet, but I’ll try to behave myself. At least it isn’t a pitch in with a tableful of luscious desserts. Happy Friday, all!

Well, I tried, but not hard enough. I ate a crazy number of calories last night. Oh, well, moving right along…. I did not gain 2 pounds of fat overnight, so lots of water and and “normal” eating should put me back on track. The banquet was lots of fun, celebrating some outstanding achievements by dogs and their people.

6/16 159.0 workout – 1 hour cardio/weight training class.
6/17 158.6 workout – 4.25 miles in 64:00 on treadmill @ 3% with 3 lb. weights
6/18 158.6 tried a new workout class – 1 hour boot camp. Trying to drink more water.
6/19 158.2 went over calories yesterday so surprised at the loss. Maybe I used more calories in class yesterday than MFP calculated. Workout - 4.25 miles in 64:00 on treadmill @ 3% incline, plus 2K on the Concept 2 rower.
6/20 158.8 looks like the extra calories from Saturday finally caught up with me. Trying to be very mindful of what I eat today.

@quiltingjaine We tried Rolling Smoke Barbeque which was off the Strip but not by much for lunch today and found it really tasty!
The heat is definitely stronger out there today... you are so right that the lack of humidity makes it comfortable. It's nice the wind is down for sure. We are having a great time.4 -

Round 190 ( my 122nd). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Goal this round is to lose 1.5 pounds & no binges, keep within calories.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!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16. 138.8 - Good start to the round. 6 miles walked yesterday, all calories eaten back, in fact 14 calories over. DH birthday today, spending it with him looking after 3 of our DGC all 3 or under.
6/17. 139.4 - 4.59 miles walked, managed an hour when we got back from DS yesterday evening, (he cooked tea for us). Sat outside till late with glass wine & had 4 of DH birthday chocolates, enjoying warm weather - it's going to break tomorrow.
6/18. 139.4 - only 3.51 miles walked yesterday; it was so so hot (29 C), way way too hot to walk during the day, concentrated on staying indoors or in the shade in a breeze, managed to get a leisurely half hour walk in just before dusk. Today is forecast rain (and a high of 15C) so probably struggle again to get walk in !!! Great British weather ?!!!
6/19 138.6 - 4.86 miles walked, family BBQ at lunchtime kept me full all day; just an apple for tea was sufficient!!
6/20 139.4 – 4.48 miles walked.
6/21 138.8 - 6.48 miles walked, good food day, no chocolate.

So much dust in the air that we can’t see the mountains across the valley. Even when the temperature soars, the lack of humidity make it bearable! Our older daughter keeps telling me I’m going to shrivel up. LOL
@musicsax Is it humid where you are? 29c or 84F sounds delightful unless the humidity is 95%.
No not humid, we rarely get humidity, but not temperatures we are used to, it was fine for sitting around, but not brisk walking !!1 -

Day/Weight/Comment
6/16 / 158.6 / Busy days at work. I got lots of steps as I did a few meetings as walks with my staff. It worked out well.
6/17 / 159 / Got lots done today in work and around the house. Even rode the Peloton before work started. Off to Vegas in the morning.
6/18 / 160.8 / On the plane to Vegas just waiting to take off. It's going to be much warmer than I'm used to! So excited.
6/19 / DNW / Great first full day in Vegas. We have walked so many steps already. I also was able to use the gym at our hotel this morning before we started our day. The food and drinks have been indulgent so I'm glad we're moving a lot at least.
6/20 / DNW / Hoping to hit the gym again today before the day gets going. Plans for a magic show today if we get tickets. Temperature is to continue getting warmer but so far the heat just feels nice although I did get a bit of heat rash on my legs yesterday. It has been good to walk in the evenings - so pleasant out!
6/21 / DNW / Getting double the step counts I'm used to walking around Vegas. I know from tracking that it won't be enough to offset all the calorie consumption. I'm not intentionally going crazy but I also know I'm indulging. I am proud of the fact I've gotten to the gym every morning. Today I did a walk/run Peloton working on a treadmill since that's a piece of equipment I don't have at home.

I’m in! I love challenges to hold me accountable! Thank you @quiltingjaine and all other members!
I’m a repeat MFPer! This most recent round I am the heaviest I’ve ever been. COVID, a work from home desk job, a breakup and a hysterectomy had the odds stacked against me but I will over come!

I'm in for my first challenge! Thanks for this. I've been an MFP member for years and successfully lost the weight I wanted in the past. However, in recent years, I haven't been as disciplined. I'm in a holding pattern. I lose weight during the week but gain it back over the weekend. I may do a long bike ride (e.g. 50 miles) with my husband on a Saturday, but we also like to check out music at local breweries afterwards. Need I say more?

Day/Weight/Comment- 6/16: 146 - Planned my day's meals yesterday and actually stuck to it. Thanks for the challenge! Hoping to do the same today.
- 6/17 (Friday): 147.8 - We went out for dinner last night. The food was salty and I had two craft beers (which are high in calories). I'm cooking tonight!
- 6/18 (Saturday): ? - Cycled the Capitol trail from Jamestown to Richmond (51 miles) and spent the night. Drank lots of Gatorade. Did not track food. Downtown Richmond was nice! Nice dinner, then out for a drink and music.
- 6/19 (Sunday): ?- Cycled the Capitol trail from Richmond to Jamestown (51 miles). Did not track food. Ate a hearty breakfast. Drank lots of Gatorade.
- 6/20 (Monday): 148.6 - WHY do I gain weight after burning 1,000s of calories over the weekend? ... I did not track my food over the weekend. Starting over again! Does anyone have tips for managing weekends while out dining, drinking and listening to music?
- 6/21: 147.4 - Tracked my food yesterday and stuck to it. completed 20-minute Yoga, and 30-minute core body strengthening Peloton classes.

Thanks quiltingjaine for another round! This is #2 for me. I’m a 40 year old single mom with sole custody of my two younger children (oldest is grown). I let stress & depression take control of me years ago and when the pandemic hit that surely didn’t help. Once upon a time I was a fitness buff. Now I’m trying to shed my biggest gain ever (more than any pregnancy) and rebuild muscle. Still battling some long CoVID symptoms but determined to get back into shape & do the things I love. Started this journey 4/4/22 at 180lbs.
R189: SW - 171.5 / EW - 170.0 (-1.5)
————————————————————
6/16 - 169.3 (-.7) - Took an easy day yesterday because of the DOM’s. I was under my calories in the evening but noticed I ate past being full. Breaking that no waste habit is hard. Scale didn’t go up this morning so that’s good, might show tomorrow. I owe a friend a celebratory dance & I’m trying to finish work early (self employed) so I can hit the lake this afternoon. 💧 160 oz. (over), 👟10,795 (met), 💪 30 min. light rowing, ⛑ +19 (211).
"It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.” - Mahatma Gandhi
6/17 - 169.9 (+.6) - There’s that uptick I was expecting. Got in my water time swimming & kayaking. Easily under my calories and that included beer and a cookie, felt full all day. I still owe that dance. 💧132 oz. (over), 👟10,438 (met), 💪 118 min. continuous paddling ⛑ +29 (215).

6/18 - 170.1 (+.2) - Caught up with some old friends and that put me on a carb high but I made use of the energy and slept like a baby. I’m making some great progress fitness wise & am tempted to hike my first 14-er in nearly 20 years. We’ll see how I train the next 30 days before I attempt it (main concern - CoVID recovering lungs).💧160 oz. (over), 🥗 under, 👟11,032 (met), 💪 80 min. Rowing, strength training, 9 min. Dancing & 15 min. Tai Chi,⛑ +61 (231).

6/19 - 169.5 (-.6) - PTSD triggered again yesterday evening when fireworks startled me while watering the lawn. Needless to say, Mental satiety took priority at that point. Treating my Pops today so it will be challenging stay within my calorie goal. 💧144 oz. (over), 🥗 easily under w/ great macros, 💪 100 min. Rowing + strength training 👟6,462 (under), ⛑ +23 (236).

6/20 - 169.2 (-.3) - Just about where I was at the start of this challenge but I’m sure weight will rise again. 🥗 over by 313 but I already knew that was going to happen & I’m okay with it. 💧132 oz. (over) 💪 15 min. rowing + half the day putting in a new fence at my parents farm 👟 11,145 (met), ⛑ +37 (251).

One good thing about very hot weather—I don’t feel like eating much, and I crave light salads rather than fat. 😁
6/17 - 179.6
Tonight is our obedience club’s awards banquet, but I’ll try to behave myself. At least it isn’t a pitch in with a tableful of luscious desserts. Happy Friday, all!
6/18 - 181.8
Well, I tried, but not hard enough. I ate a crazy number of calories last night. Oh, well, moving right along…. I did not gain 2 pounds of fat overnight, so lots of water and and “normal” eating should put me back on track. The banquet was lots of fun, celebrating some outstanding achievements by dogs and their people.

Month/Day: Scale - First thing today before getting dressed, rounded to whole number.

Previous posts:6/15: 215 - Previous Day Starting Weight.
I am engaged in a battle to shed the weight I gained over the Christmas Holiday. It seems to have gained ground and taken a foothold!
6/16: 214
/nope. Desk jockey all day, meetings all evening/ The good news about being so busy is that the refrigerator is a long way away. One of my biggest accomplishments this week is avoidance of the “snaccidents” at work.
6/17: 215
/mowed grass, again/ Calories were ok, but a little salty.
6/18: 215 estimated because I got up so early to fish, I didn’t weigh.
6/19: 215
/fishing calories burned/ Food calories ok but not very nutritious. Happy with the number.
6/20: 216
/small walk, mostly sitting/ We had four generations around a pizza joint table for father’s day. Good day with family but not a good eating day. Lots of salt.
6/21: 217
/walk + some dumbbell work/ This weight reading does not bother me for two reasons.
First, this is my weekend catching up to me and it is well deserved. Yesterday I was a good boy.
Second, Since I only record rounded numbers lately, this “217” is just barely a pound more than the “215” of two days ago. (similarly, yesterday’s 216 was 0.2 pounds higher than the 215 of two days ago.
Aaaaaaaaand here I am doing exactly what I am trying to avoid by recording whole numbers. I am parsing pounds, getting analytical about 0.0009234 of my overall body weight.
Have a good longest day of the year to everybody in the Northern Hemisphere!

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.7 -

Day/Weight/Comment
06/15 …..206.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/16 …..204.2 ….. (Trend weight 205.0)
06/17 …..203.2 ….. (Trend weight 204.8)
06/18 …..205.2 ….. (Trend weight 204.8) Closed out with great numbers last night, then had a glucose drop and ate a large bowl of cereal with low carb Fairlife milk very late last night. Showed up as 2 pounds this morning! No worries, still feeling this out and navigating how to work around my health issues. My resolve is still very strong.
06/19 …..203.0 ….. (Trend weight 204.7) A big drop overnight. I have to wonder how much my puff ups are from water retention based on the heart issues and how much the drops are from the water pill. I take the water pill about every other day except when traveling (for obvious reasons.). I’m going to be tracking this trend. I did take one yesterday. On another note, yesterday was a great day. My glucose drops tend to come more in the evening or at night so I delayed my meals all day. Breakfast at 11:30 am, lunch at 5:00 pm and dinner at 10:30 pm. I hated to eat that late (due to morning weigh-ins) but it seems to have worked. No drop last night and satisfied most of the day. I even fit in some exercise. About 17 min of aerobic dancing, a short 15 minute walk with inclines and stationary bike for 10 minutes. Keeping it safe until I know more about the heart situation, but it’s a start!
06/20 …..204.0 ….. (Trend weight 204.6) This has been my best week in a long time as far as determination goes. I dropped 1.6 lbs, but more importantly, my resolve has been pretty good. I am navigating what is working best for me. In the past I have done strict Keto and changing over to calories in/calories out with a watchful eye on my carb intake is definitely different, but I’m figuring it all out. I am also focusing on spreading my food out better to prevent night time binges, and eating slower. I have been treating all my food like it’s popcorn (you know how we stuff our mouths full?). Eating is not a race and who gets done first should have stopped by the end of grammar school! I ate back my calories of exercise last night and I see what happened with the scale, even though I was in the green. Learning……
06/21 ……202.2 ….. (Trend weight 204.4) No water pill yesterday so I am happy to see such a nice overnight drop after a day of such restriction. It was a very good day on the diet front, but lousy on the movement front. Today I travel to finish the root canal (if tooth is not cracked down inside). It is expected to hit 100 degrees today, very unusual for northern Michigan. Thank God I will be out of town where there will be A/C in the drs office, the stores, the restaurant and in my car. I am taking my son to a steak house which is a real treat for us. Nothing like that around home! I will try to order something small but I’m not gonna lie, I know I will enjoy the sides. I will not be bring donuts home! The city I go to has the best…… oh, never mind!

6/19-168-Got the two quilts quilted, rode the squirrely horse for a bit, then got off and just gave him exercise. I need to put air in my bike tires. Baked salmon for dinner.

6/16 - 172.3* - 22,500 / 159. I am half way through my June watch challenge and I am just over my kms but its going to be hard to finish. Right now it says I need to do 13.1 km/day. I have 3 days that I am going to be pretty busy and getting 13 kms in could be hard. I'm not sure my watch knows that I have a desk job!! I'm looking forward to seeing some 6's .... Welcome all to the challenge!! Let's do this!!
6/17 - 171.1 - 17,100 / 100. Went to Costco it's out of town but did manage to get a few good steps in.
6/18 - 169.7* - 14,600. / 108. Happy to see that 6! Treated myself to a pedicure, very happy feet. Now I’m going to go push them and go for a long walk. Sorry feet! My oldest is in Vegas this weekend sending me lots of pictures of fun and sun. I am quite jealous. 4 years ago I was in Vegas and 19 lbs lighter. … I WILL BE THERE AGAIN! Well maybe not Vegas but some kind of a vacation. Have a wonderful Saturday All.
6/19 - 168* - 36,200 / 248. Got in a good walk 23 km. Then what I call a hot sauna bath and after made cookies for an upcoming Celebration of Life I’ve got some more to make and only tested 2!! Most of this loss is water and TMI and a balancing of some jump ups. Happy Father’s Day too all the Dads out there.
6/20 - 167.2 - 29,500 / 197. Had a good walk visited my Dad had a good dinner and an adult beverage. Looks like I need to adjust my calories and exercise calories. Have some concerns.
6/21 - 167.5* - 21,000 / 145. Smaller walk more calories no TMI. So I'm probably stable. My muscles are a little achy today, maybe the weather is changing and I'm hit the 'old person weather predictor' stage in life. lol Wishing you all a great day!!

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.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

6/16 119.0 GKI 8.1 Bingo last night was fun. Chicken salad and egg salad sliders - I skipped the bread, did eat a tiny bag of potato chips and about 1T of vanilla ice cream. Took my own keto cake and berries for dessert.
6/17 119.5 GKI 7.6 Not sure if it’s the extreme heat or what but I have been craving salt. Not worried.
6/18 118.5 GKI 8.1 OMAD was brisket from Dickey’s. The sign says “NEW OWNER-Better Food” but we don’t agree and won’t be making that 25 mile round trip again.
6/19 119.0 GKI 6.4 Angry Butcher last night - Rock Shrimp and 2 SF adult beverages.
6/20 119.5 GKI 6.7 BBQ at a new to us place with DD#2 and family. I ate a little Mac and cheese - first macaroni in 5 years! It was SOOOO cheese I could easily have gone totally off the rails but I didn’t.
6/21 120.0 GKI 5.7 OMAD 1/2 Great Greek salad with steak skewer, no pita. Need a TMI visit!6
