5/31 - 169.6 6/01 - 170.3 6/02 - 169.7 6/03 - 168.5 6/04 - 168.6 - I'm feeling rather good with things right now. I've managed to get my steps in, though some days I'm pacing before bed to do so while others I go above and beyond. I'm also getting my water intake up to or above 100oz so far this week. Food is all logged…

5/31 - 169.6 6/01 - 170.3 6/02 - 169.7 6/03 - 168.5 - Yay! I wasn't sure how rehydration yesterday was going to go but I focused diligently on eating within my macro goals and was able to squeeze in 100oz water. Today's meals/snacks are all planned out. I have to come up with a different breakfast Thursday since I'm all…

5/31 - 169.6 - 6/01 - 170.3 - 6/02 - 169.7 - I thought this weekend was a horror show with food (it was) but not so bad the scale went terribly off the rails. I'll take it. I know there's definitely dehydration involved between going golfing during the hottest part of the day Saturday with limited water and then Sunday…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW 5/24 - DNW 5/25 - DNW 5/26 - 171.4 5/27 - 171.0 5/28 - 169.3 - I'm not entirely sure why I'm up. My best guess is that I'm dealing with a lot of DOMS and general inflammation. My knee, for some reason, feels very stiff and swollen. I woke up unable to bend it easily in the middle of the…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW 5/24 - DNW 5/25 - DNW 5/26 - 171.4 5/27 - 171.0 5/28 - 168.4 - This was a delight to see! I've been sticking to 100oz of water and aiming to hit my macros. I did adjust my goal today. I had my MacroFactor app set to a goal of 155. I updated that to 160 and I think it did an overwrite of the…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW 5/24 - DNW 5/25 - DNW 5/26 - 171.4 5/27 - 171.0 5/28 - 170.3 - Happy with that progress. It is slower coming off than I'd like and I'm wondering if I did truly gain some weight and it's not all just bloating. TOM is well over and all that bloat is gone but I'm still feeling puffy. Probably…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW 5/24 - DNW 5/25 - DNW 5/26 - 171.4 5/27 - 171.0 - Definitely thought I'd be higher after yesterday. We ended up deciding to go to Fam's last minute to eat ribs and it ended up being way out of my goals. Oops. Glad the scale was kind about it. Today I've planned around dinner and included…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW 5/24 - DNW 5/25 - DNW 5/26 - 171.4 - Despite yesterday being a bit of a free-for-all as far as food goes (we had no plans for the holiday weekend so everything was very spur of the moment, food included), I decided I needed to weigh in at some point. Ouch. Based on my Withings scale and the…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW 5/23 - DNW - I'm still feeling excessively bloated so I didn't officially weigh in. I did step on the scale for a quick glance, not allowing it to fully settle and record - I've now dropped, barely, back into the 160s. Before I left I was 166.4 so the horrible bloated feeling would make sense with my…

5/21 - DNW 5/22 - DNW - TOM has arrived so I'm dealing with bloat from eating out, dehydration-related water retention, AND hormonal bloat. Ick. I'm feeling quite awful for that and have decided to forego the scale for a bit longer. This is okay and expected, I just don't want to make myself feel worse, even knowing…

Back from travel! I'm going to give myself the rest of this week to recover before I weigh in again because I'm feeling really bloated. Water intake was not ideal, as expected, due to road trips (11 hour drives) and then not having access to water several times during the weekend (graduation itself was 4 hours and no…

5/11 - DNW 5/12 - DNW 5/13 - 167.1 5/14 - 166.4 5/15 - 166.0 5/16 - 166.4 - Think this is DOMS because I woke up so incredibly sore. I nearly fell out of bed because of it! TOM should arrive in the next ~5 days according to my app so that could be a factor as well if it is arriving a tad earlier. This is my last post until…

5/11 - DNW 5/12 - DNW 5/13 - 167.1 5/14 - 166.4 - 5/15 - 166.0 - This is delightful! I was not expecting another drop like this but I'm glad that my hard work seems to be paying off wonderfully. Hoping to continue this today and tomorrow (:

5/11 - DNW 5/12 - DNW 5/13 - 167.1 5/14 - 166.4 - I was not expecting this weight this morning. Especially since I felt really pudgy and looked quite bloated in the belly this morning. I nearly didn't weigh but realized that I have no excuse except what the mirror was showing me and I did everything right yesterday. I'm…

5/11 - DNW 5/12 - DNW - 5/13 - 167.1 - I'm pleasantly surprised by this. I was nervous to step on the scale but with being out for several days this weekend into next week, I need to get a decent weight trend leading up to it. Feeling good. Food logged through today and then repeating Monday/Tuesday for Wednesday Thursday…

Hi Friends! Behind the curve a bit with a weekend of being all over the place very last minute and out later than I had planned due to unforeseen changes in plans and situations. I'll be traveling from the 17th-20th for Stepdaughter's graduation out of state so I'll be gone the last half of the challenge but I'll do my…

5/01 - 167.4 5/02 - 167.3 5/03 - 169.2 5/04 - 168.9 5/05 - 170.0 5/06 - 168.0 5/07 - 167.6 - 5/08 - 168.1 - I have no idea why I'm up today other than just weird natural fluctuations? I behaved well yesterday and stayed within goals. Just have to trust the process. Pushed hard in the gym today so I wouldn't be surprised if…

5/01 - 167.4 5/02 - 167.3 5/03 - 169.2 5/04 - 168.9 5/05 - 170.0 5/06 - 168.0 5/07 - 167.6 - I will absolutely take this! Today's meals are very veggie-heavy and I didn't finish my lunch (I ate the chicken but didn't eat all the veggies). On Monday I didn't finish all the veggies for dinner so I anticipate much the same…

5/01 - 167.4 5/02 - 167.3 5/03 - 169.2 5/04 - 168.9 5/05 - 170.0 5/06 - 168.0 - Very nice drop from the weekend. Hoping to continue this drop and feeling quite good. Today has been super hectic so even if I wanted to snack, I didn't have the chance to go raid the pantry or fridge. It's nearly dinner time now and that will…

5/01 - 167.4 5/02 - 167.3 5/03 - 169.2 - 5/04 - 168.9 - 5/05 - 170.0 - Dinner Friday night was date night and, as usual, brought along the bloat. Saturday I overate just a bit. I was ravenous and enjoyed a protein brownie after dinner that put me over my goals. I was right about maintenance with that so I wasn't terribly…

5/01 - 167.4 - 5/02 - 167.3 - Dinner was the high fat keto which contained heavy whipping cream and cheese. I'm rather surprised I'm not up, actually. I felt quite bloated this morning compared to yesterday. Only one other person showed up for basketball today so he and I took it as a low-key practice day. We did 3 rounds…

5/01 - 167.4 - No change from yesterday but that's okay. I'm all balanced today despite being over on protein and fats - as planned I offset with lower carbs and am within my 50 calorie buffer. Protein and fiber goals also met so everything is good. I know I'm going out to dinner tomorrow for date night so tonight I plan…

4/21 - 168.9 4/22 - 168.5 4/23 - 167.5 4/24 - 167.5 4/25 - 167.8 4/26 - 168.5 4/27 - DNW 4/28 - 170.4 4/29 - 168.4 4/30 - 167.4 - Yippee! Another nice drop and I'm feeling comfortable with this number. From here, I hope I can stick to my macros and activity goals to see some real drops that aren't hidden by bloating or…

4/21 - 168.9 4/22 - 168.5 4/23 - 167.5 4/24 - 167.5 4/25 - 167.8 4/26 - 168.5 4/27 - DNW 4/28 - 170.4 - 4/29 - 168.4 - This is delightful! I'm not quite back down to my lowest weight over the last few weeks (167.x) but considering this is a 2lb difference overnight, I'll take it. Today I'm over calories by 34 as of now and…

4/21 - 168.9 4/22 - 168.5 4/23 - 167.5 4/24 - 167.5 4/25 - 167.8 4/26 - 168.5 4/27 - DNW 4/28 - 170.4 - Ouch. Saturday was a mess. Friday night a pipe got clogged while the dishwasher was running and we didn't know it until we flooded the kitchen. Saturday we had the plumber son and his best friend (also plumber) come out…

4/21 - 168.9 4/22 - 168.5 4/23 - 167.5 4/24 - 167.5 - 4/25 - 167.8 - A tiny jump up. Could be soreness (my arms! that's not my usual sore area) or from dinner having just enough heavy cream to cause my lactose pills to struggle. It's not so much that I have any tummy issues, just enough to cause bloat if I overload myself…

4/21 - 168.9 4/22 - 168.5 4/23 - 167.5 4/24 - 167.5 - No change and that's okay. I did have a snack this afternoon despite it putting me over calories by 175, and over my +/-10g buffer by 16g protein, 3g fat, and 13g carbs. This isn't too bad overall and I'm okay. TOM is really kicking my behind this go 'round and I needed…

4/21 - 168.9 - 4/22 - 168.5 - 4/23 - 167.5 - An unexpected drop this morning, despite still feeling unnaturally bloated. This was later explained by the arrival of TOM a couple days earlier than expected, but glad to know that was it. I'm feeling much lighter and less bloated as the day goes on which lets me know that was…

4/21 - 168.9 - 4/22 - 168.5 - Down a touch which I will take. I'm feeling very bloated today and my clothes aren't fitting as great as they have been. I'm focused heavily on getting extra water in today to try to flush out some of this bloat. Yesterday I woke up with a sore neck from sleeping funny and now it's my back, -…

4/21 - 168.9 - Up today but that's water weight, I think. I stayed relatively close to my goals yesterday despite Easter. I did indulge in some wine which probably didn't help the scale, especially since I sacrificed more water than I should've. Saturday was our date night which, as always, causes some bloating. I'm…
