    I’m in for my second round. Met some great friends the last round! Last round I lost 2 pounds! This round will be tricky because there is a holiday in it and we have a party with all the food and the drinks. We’ll see.

    OSW: 250
    CW: 230

    6/28 230 feeling frustrated, cranky and bloated today….not good with this plateau!
    6/29 230😑
    6/30 230-is this my destined weight?!?
    7/1 228! Finally!
    7/2 228.5
    7/3 228.5 hmm not sure I’m going to hit my goal weight this round 😞
    7/4 228.5-okay, I’m glad there wasn’t a gain there considering the day I had yesterday! Time to drink tons of water today!
    7/5 229
    Well, I wanted to lose 2 pounds but only lost 1, at least it’s not a gain. Better luck next round!

    7/05 - 154.8 - So figured out what in the world was going on. TOM! Still dealing with some TOM bloat, TMI isn't great (typical TOM complication for me), and a 4th of July dinner of smoked ribs and sides yesterday certainly isn't helping the scale. Back on it today. Getting cracks in windshield fixed this morning (they come to us), shipping ma's birthday gift and picking up a package held at post this afternoon and work otherwise. No workout as I was absolutely exhausted this morning. No BigBro to drive so tomorrow through Friday I plan on waking up at my normal time to take him to work and do a workout instead. BF is doing his best to drive up with me Saturday to pick all 3 kiddos up and go do something together. No idea food today but I'm not particularly hungry at this point so I think I'll fast until lunch. Plus water water water!

    Previous Day's Comments
    6/26 - DNP
    6/27 - No proper TMI for a couple days with lots and lots of sodium bloat. Back on track today. Finally got access to my new company's wellness and connect everything. I'm also trying to figure out my schedule to allow me to work out throughout the week without missing work or dropping off/picking up BigBro. It'll likely still take a few weeks to really get into a nice routine, but I'm getting there. Not sure what today holds. Goddaughter's last t-ball game tonight so we will be going to that. It's at 7, but we have to pick up Bigbro from work. Won't have time to do that, come home to cook, then drive back out so I have a feeling we will be eating out. Will focus on healthier options during the workday instead. Also focusing on water and getting up to move frequently throughout the day, even if I'm not using the bike, rower, or bodyweight moves for a proper workout.
    6/28 - Still holding on to water and TMI... sigh. I did get out for an evening walk with the pup last night after the rain passed. Hoping to do something similar today. Fitbit died this morning so steps from about 8am to 11am were not counted but there were some! Realize I posted on the wrong date yesterday so I adjusted that today. Water and watching food today as yesterday wasn't great food-wise with the t-ball game and eating out. Grilled or smoked chicken tonight, based on what's thawing. Training today and starting on my first ever project! Eeek I'm nervous. But it's keeping me busy so I'm okay with that.
    6/29 - Finally losing some of the water weight. Got a little TMI movement, but I'm not quite back to normal in that regards so likely holding on to some extra weight there, as well. Water was good yesterday at 90oz. BF took BigBro to work this morning so the SD and I went out for a "photography walk" to take pictures of sunrise with the big camera. Only to come home and realize my SD card reader is MIA... Just ordered a new one, though, which should be here Friday to see how they turned out for real. I got more steps in before work today than I ever did while commuting to work! Plus some quality time. Remote work has been fantastic. I have a couple days of posts to catch up on so I'm going to do that now. Not sure food for today, but will try to keep it in check throughout the day in case dinner is a bit more calorie-dense or unhealthy. Depending on dinner (if we go to Fam's or stay home) will take pup for another walk like we did last night. She's loving the remote work as well haha!
    6/30 - I have zero clue what's going on with my body. I will say I'm quite sore in the lower legs (mostly shin/calves, a little in thighs) from all the walking up and down the hills in my new neighborhood recently. Tomorrow I'm off work (every other Friday off) and BF is able to be mobile with his work so we are getting out of house to do something with kids. Saturday I drive kids to Oklahoma to meet their mom so they can spend a week with her for the 4th (BF is on go-live, working 7 days a week starting Saturday until the 15th). On the 9th I go back to Oklahoma to meet mom to get kids back for remainder of summer. Hoping the travel doesn't shoot my weight straight up. Hanging in there, drinking my water, and trying to get extra movement where I can. Food will fall into place soon, I'm sure.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    06/25 …..203.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
    06/26 …..202.8 ….. (Trend weight 204.0)
    06/27 …..198.4 ….. (Trend weight 203.5) 06/28 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0)
    06/29 …..201.0 ….. (Trend weight 202.8)
    06/30 …..DNW ….. (Trend weight DNW] 07/01 ……202.8 ….. (Trend weight 203.0)


    07/03 ……204.6 ….. (Trend weight 203.4) And this is what happens when you accumulate fluid in your ankles and feet folks. Obviously, yesterday was not waterpill day. Today is, so I should see improvement tomorrow. Again, so hard to gauge how my actual weight is doing like this. I take my pill every other day (but not when traveling. I may miss a few and really bloat up at times). Yesterday was a great day. Stayed within calories, closed all my circles on my fitbit, took a walk and also used the stationary bike. My scale shows no increase in my fat on my body also so that is good (and an indication). I hate this guessing game.

    07/04 ……203.6 ….. (Trend weight 203.4) So this is where I sit after a waterpill yesterday. Not real happy with the number. I had all great numbers on fitbit yesterday closing all circles and having higher numbers than I’ve had in awhile. I’ve got more work to do! My goal each round is to lose ANYTHING and I am 0.2 down today from start weight. Hopefully tomorrow will yield an even better number but…….today is no waterpill so I will be swelling. And, of course, it is a holiday, a food and grilling holiday. Ugh! I am just going to trust the process and push through the good habits regardless of scale. On another note, My oldest daughter Bethany will be in our little local parade today with the 3 DGS’s. Looking forward to lining the street to see them. Have a safe day everyone!


    07/05 ……205.0 ….. (Trend weight 203.6) An overnight jump. I’m not surprised. No waterpill yesterday, 3 ½ hours sleep last night and a holiday bbq, and desserts/snacks that I should have avoided. Not a good way to end the round. Up 1.2 lbs.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    This is my first round!

    Day, Weight, Comment

    6/26: 158.2 - today is my “relaxed eating” day so I fully anticipate a gain on the scale tomorrow. I will take it because I feel great, I still tracked all of my food (a huge win for me), I still got some movement in, and I’m ready to jump into tomorrow!
    6/27: 157.9 - feeling a little under the weather today, but pleasantly surprised at my weigh in this morning. I’m feeling extra hungry and a little headachy today but I had a good workout this morning so that definitely helped.
    6/28: 156.9 - yesterday ended up being a great day! I was able to avoid a binge, I ate well within my calorie range, and had a good workout. I started this morning big with a workout but we have pizza every Tuesday night, so I generally expect a little gain on Wednesday mornings.
    6/29: 156.9 - I stayed exactly the same as yesterday so I’m thrilled! Here’s to another day of tracking!
    6/30: 155.8 - wow! Y’all today is a great day to have a great day! I am just feeling incredible this week! Tracking and exercise and water, oh my!
    7/01: 154.8 - how is it already July?! I have a planned higher calorie day today so not expecting a loss tomorrow. I’ll still be tracking, and that’s always the goal for me!
    7/02: 152.9 - I’m about to get my workout in for the day, and I commit to tracking all of my food today as well! I also really need to focus on water, because I didn’t have enough yesterday.
    7/03: 154.6 - up a bit from yesterday. Still not enough water, not a ton of movement, and loads of salt, so I’m not surprised!!
    7/04: 153.7 - my favorite part of this challenge is how much it’s keeping me accountable to tracking. It’s been hugely motivating and I can’t wait to do it again!
    7/05: 153.9 - round 191 results down 4.3 pounds! To say I’m thrilled is an understatement! I have been tracking like a pro and, go figure, it’s working. So I’ll see you in round 192!!!

    SW: 180.2

    ROUND 190
    SW: ?
    6/24 176.6 back from vacation. was i stressing over gaining weight so i didn't eat as much, or was i not stress eating? kinda like that old tootsie pop commercial, "the world may never know".

    6/25 175.8 don't believe everything you see. it HAS to be my scale messing with me again because everyone knows i don't lose almost a pound overnight. someday i will invest in a better scale. until then....i'm enjoying the tiny fibs it tells me every once in a while.
    ROUND 191
    SW: 174.4

    Day/Weight/Comment

    6/26: 174.4 i will keep accepting these lower weights my scale is spitting out, just as i will accept the higher ones when it decides to tell the truth. maybe it's all my fault, and i should change the batteries? I forgot to mention my failures that have occurred since vacation. i am ashamed to say i have had a set back in my quitting smoking. i know that i will have to get that under control as well as my eating habits. i have also failed in my walking. i will need to get motivated and include that also. i have emotional stress in my life right now, which i see an end to in the future but that will take a few months. my weeks vacation visiting with family was nothing but smiles and laughter. driving home my failures began, and i realized i must do something besides diet and exercise for myself. i will continue to recognize my failures, but i will not beat myself up over them. a slow and steady path in the right direction is what i have chosen.

    6/27: 174.4 i looked up how many calories i should be eating if i am sedentary and oh lordy lordy they're really trying to starve people! i did my check in yesterday and "whoop whoop" my neck is 1/2 in thinner! wow! was that a good feeling! i still haven't gotten back to my walks outside. i did spend 3 hours walking in a circle around my livingroom yesterday, and i think i am going to start calling the time i struggle with the dog to take her medicine "my cardio workout".

    6/28: 174.8 OK scale... i must weigh 174.(something). my calories were good, my macros were good. my exercise was non-existant. aaarrrgggh, i thought getting back to exercising would be easier than this.

    6/29: 174 changed the batteries in my scale, and my weight remained about the same. i'm owing my scale an apology now for accusing it of lying to me. my calorie intake was super low yesterday, i wasn't feeling very hungry. maybe it was because of the migraine lurking to attack me last night, but it's almost noon time today and i still have no appetite. i was thinking earlier how great this group is. no one is judgmental and everyone so supportive. it's excellent therapy without the giant price tag.

    6/30: 173.6 another day of too low intake, but again great macros. i forced myself to go for my walk yesterday. 1.9mi @3mph. when i got home i was questioning my sanity. 2 weeks without walking, last night felt like a nightmare, but i'm sure it'll get better again. i am trying to do my walks 3-4 times a week.

    7/: 172.4 calorie intake was at "sustain" level, so i'm shocked to see this loss. macros pretty good.

    7/2: 174.0 calories were good. it had rained all day, so i never went on my walk. weighed myself in the afternoon, after already eating. today i will be hooking up with my sister and her family. we are going to a dinner theatre so i am expecting a gain for tomorrow.

    7/3: 175.4 that's a huge move in the wrong direction. i went 700 calories over my allowed amount yesterday... shameful. i will be going on a cruise in 2 weeks, i am already anticipating the work i will have to do when i get back from that.

    7/4: 173.6 of course there's a cookout today. it shouldn't be much of a problem through

    7/5: 173.8 yes, i went over my calories again, 545 this time. if i could have gotten some walking in like i swore i would get back to things wouldn't be so bad. unfortunate for me, it's been nothing but rain and looks like continued rain for about another week.

    Day, Weight, Comment

    6/26 - 166.7 - 14,500 steps / 74 active minutes. Had a few/several adult beverages and didn’t really track but ate mindfully. Sandwich, veggies and a few treats at the tea. Then 2 tiny pieces of pizza and a small amount of chips. This number is mostly puff and water not worried at all. I work at this so I can enjoy these days. Oh … I had many people tell me that I was looking good and that they see me walking lol.
    6/27 - 167.2* - 15,300 / 90. Baby shower lots of sitting, and hot weather!! Did get a walk in. SO called to say he should be flying home today. Happy but it kinda means it will take longer to drop back down, eh will see. No hugs needed I was expecting this and it will get back down soon, all part of it.
    6/28 - 168.1 - 16,700 / 113. Hooray SO is home and my tummy is full of sushi rice. Enjoyed a nice sushi picnic. Sleep was horrible. Not worried about the number, but I am pretty bloated over these last few days. Hoping for a nice light dinner. Been a little behind on the post readings hopefully I can catch up soon. Keep at it all!!
    6/29 - 168.9 - 11,100 / 68. Hit my June Challenge of 398.1 Km for the month. Just been hitting my minimums right now. Scale increase due to Pasta, SO home, minimums TOM, alcohol, terrible sleep, TMI and family events. Interesting my water % did hit optimal level, it's usually in the low range. Fat % is the same as 165 and muscle is up too. The body is an interesting thing. Long weekend coming up this might be a few days before I go down again.
    6/30 - 170.2* - 11,200 / 58. Another low key day with nothing aligning. Visited friends camping and had hot dogs and snacks.

    7/01 - DNW - 14,700/89
    7/02 - DNW - 13,500/47
    7/03 - 173.1 - 10,100/35
    7/04 - 174.7* - 13,200/60 - Lots of travel and visiting with a little stress and a big bag of cheese puffs! SO is away working again so I should lose some of this puff. I still believe it's mostly water weight. Happy we are starting a new 10! Fresh starts!!

    7/05 - 172.6 - 20,000/131 - Got my walks in and back at it. Way way way behind in post readings.

    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)

    **Comments apply to previous day**

    SW RND 191 120.0 AW 119.2
    6/26 118.5 GKI 6.4
    6/27 120.5 GKI 12.7 Can sum this up in 3 words - HOT HOMEMADE BREAD!!! 2 slices buttered and Greek Salad with steak. No TMI in a couple of days Why does bread/wheat taste so good and treat me so bad(ly)??? Not worried about this bump.
    6/28 120.5 GKI 13.0 Gotta give the bread away!
    6/29 119.5 GKI 13.1 DH has been having balance issues for a week and is waiting for a referral. He just called to find out the statues-in the past it has taken only a few days-he was just told it takes up to 2 weeks to be processed! Meanwhile, he doesn’t like anything or anyone and yada yada. . . Sorry, it’s getting old.
    6/30 118.5 GKI 6.4 “Grumpy old man” and “getting grumpy old woman” had no eating plans in place. He ate the left over egg salad and I ate the leftover piece of rib eye. Around 5 or 6 we went to In-n-Out. I got the Double Double Protein style (no bun, wrapped in lettuce) with no spread (Russian dressing) added tomato and grilled onion as well as part of DH’s fresh onion. Cal over by almost 200, total carbs 9, protein and fat both over. This weekend involves stock car races (= possible junk food) and 4th of July community “picnic.” Life is good, we have to learn to roll with the punches. Or as I said some time back Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️
    7/1 118.5 118.0 GKI 8.7 Edited weight after 10 oz (wt) of coffee and TMI! I had one glass of red wine yesterday.
    7/2 119.0 GKI 12.1 Golden Corral, UGH TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL! Okay, I wasn’t really but I ate salad, cauliflower, overcooked hamburger patty, fried chicken (1 pc - the skin is the best!) and tater tots and 1 hush puppy. At least I skipped dessert!
    7/3 118.0 GKI 8.3 [cal +305 carbs -20 pro +11 fat. +28 (beef and cheddar)] Going to stock car races and early fireworks this evening (LVMS Night of Fire) neighbor made a charcuterie box to avoid junk food, I plan to eat before we go. My original plan was to eat ALL OF THE JUNK FOOD😮 Hoping to be strong!
    7/4 119.0 GKI 10.2 🇺🇸HAPPY 4th OF JULY🇺🇸 Yesterday Great Greek 1/2 salad with 4 oz steak, no pita. My neighbor made a charcuterie box to take to the races. I may have had a total 1.5 oz of meat and cheese but the deli chicken tasted sweet. Fortunately only tiny round slices - about the dice of pizza size pepperoni. Did eat three small pieces of DH’s soft pretzel - yummy for the salt, the pretzel - not so much.
    7/5 121.0 GKI 9.8 very disappointed at fourth July picnic last night. I had two pieces of fried chicken(a thigh and a breast), one green grape, one bite of pineapple, all the fruit that was left were sweet melons, bread, baked beans with sugar. They were out of potato salad(which I don’t eat.) Oh and cupcakes for dessert, nope, didn’t eat one. So this damage is from the breading on the chicken and a sugar free whiskey sour. I’m glad I had eaten earlier in the day but my stomach is growling now (8:30 am) which is very unusual.

    Round 191
    Ended where I started. Hopefully the next ten days goes a little better!

    @jlh528: That's my life story. I lost several pounds during round 191 - before the 4th - but then gained back 2 at the end. I did lose a little over a pound for round 191. I'll take it. Hope I can take more off the next round!

    SW: 141.8

    6.26:
    ☀️: Was about to buy a Fitbit today and MFP finally fixed Apply Watch glitch. Was so excited about that☺️ Ready to burn some fat in the days to come🔥
    ⚖️:141.8
    💬: Ordered a Ketone Meter to get accurate data on Ketosis for effective fat burn
    6.27:
    ☀️: Surprised I went down. I know it may not go down steady, but it is nice to see

    💬: Ready for another workout today👟
    6.28:
    ☀️: Burned 1k+🔥 calories today
    ⚖️: 142.0
    💬: Drank some Keifer for the first time yesterday. I think that’s what added weight. It has 8g carbs per 3/4 cup. I don’t want to waste it so I might be gaining the next few days to finish the bottle while only drinking about 3/4 cup at a time. After this bottle of Keifer and some remaining Raw cheese, going to stop eating raw cheese and whole milk keifer until hitting weight loss goals.
    6.29:
    ☀️: Felt great today☺️ Weight went up as expected. I’m eating way more fat. Hope I don’t go over 145 before trending down.

    7.1:
    ☀️: Another AM workout👟Always feel great with a morning workout☺️
    ⚖️: 146.0
    💬: I have now passed my starting weight 😱 I was hoping I would be lucky and trend down during fat adaptation, but that’s only a few people who are lucky🙃 I notice my weight goes up when I do weight training too. It’s not very heavy weights but heavy enough it seems. Many changes for the body at once. I’m just hoping not to reach over 150!😂
    7.2:
    ☀️: Feeling great! Going to meal prep so I can finally start tracking:)
    ⚖️: 144.8
    💬: Happy I went back down, but I’m really going to increase fats once meal prep is done and start tracking. Should be interesting!😬 I hope this challenge remains the whole year so I can see the scale trend down once I reach my max weight☺️

    💬: Will be increasing fat significantly starting today and the next 2 weeks. Hoping I still trend down, that would be amazing :) Received Keto Meter today and should start testing tomorrow
    7.5:
    ☀️: Why couldn’t yesterday be the last day😅
    ⚖️:143.8
    💬: I increased fats yesterday and should be eating around the same amount of fats daily for next 2 weeks. Looks like my weight peeked at 146lbs before trending to 141 with small increase in fat intake. I wonder what the new all time high will be…😬

    When does the next challenge start?

    Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

    Goals for this round:

    1. Generally, show some semblance of discipline. Exercise more. Eat less.
    2. Major Goal this round is to make even a little bit of progress toward my maintenance range.

    /nothing/ Time to buckle down before July. I am eating away from home for four out of the five weekends in July, and the other one is a holiday weekend.
    6/28: 216
    /some “nominal” dumbbell work/ I lost a pound even though lunch and supper were both restaurant meals. I have some major work to do if I plan to lower my 10-day average.
    6/29: 216
    /yoga and spinning/ I would have thought a pound or two would have sweated off. I did eat back a couple hundred exercise calories….

    6/30: 216
    /grass mowing/ My current habit of rounding to the nearest whole number hides a bit of progress. But, let’s face it, when my goal is over ten pounds away… whole numbers tell the story just fine.

    On another note, I don’t think eating back my exercise calories is serving me well. Neither is my weakness for salty food.


    7/01: 217
    /x/ Spontaneous dinner out last night at a BBQ place with DW and her cousin. Her cousin is in town to join her for a piano performance at her mom’s nursing home. It will be a nice program. They play four-handed pieces, which are fun.

    Sample: (this is not DW) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4QWXgj5KWk

    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.

    I know this is a late response, but just got round to listening to this piece! It immediately took me straight back to DD's wedding day, she walked down the aisle on DH's arm to this wonderful piece, on that day it was played on the wonderful Chesterfield (famous twisted spire) church's organ by best man who is an excellent organ player. Yes, thank you for that Jeffrey, really enjoyed it. I'm sure that your DW & cousin gave a wonderful performance and was enjoyed by all the residents, families & staff alike xx.
