I’ve eased up on fasting. It was time and I could tell. I still follow time restricted medical keto. 2-3 meals a day depending on hunger. My weight fluctuates in a 2 pound range.

I was going to try to share a small photo but can’t figure out how to do so. That’s my bad arm in my avatar.

I repeated my weekly segmented body composition and my muscle is safe. I realized that the reading provides a Physique Rating 1 through 9. Mine is “8: Thin and Muscular (Athlete) lower than average body fat% with adequate muscle mass. If I continue to slowly add muscle I hope I’ll hit a 9 (very muscular.)

That’s after 214 fasts all at least 23 hours long.

I’m still at it. My final fatty tumor is about 1/3 of its original size but is quite stubborn so my fasting alternated with medical keto continues.
I know both keto fasting freaks people out.
Thats why I’m sharing.

No worries, I’m not going to start regular updates. I’m trying to do so on my blog. I finally did a segmental body composition. It was excellent! My medical Keto didn’t eat up muscle or bones or kill my metabolism. The 4” off my waist and 5” off my hips was fat. My BMR is actually higher than before by 400 calories a day. I’ll be 69 in June and my metabolic age is 26. If that’s from evil keto, oh well.

Today I did Pilates: Stott Essential Cadillac 67m + Seated UB 6/10: 5m

Today is the final day of my 8 week Reduced OMAD Medical keto plan. I’m really happy with my results.

Restorative: Slings Foundation: Myofascial Arm Lines 28m

1 day until I shift to the new plan.

Today was Essentrics Body Sculpting Series Leg Sculptor 30m + Slings: Dynamic Spiraling & Balancing 18m

Two day countdown

Stott Essential Reformer 55m + Seated UB 6/10

3 days remaining

Essentrics Body Sculpting Series Arm Blast & Posture Boost 30m + Slings Foundation: Happy Back & Spirals 19.5m

4 days remaining

Pilates: Stott Group Stability Chair 40m + Bar Method Seat/Thighs & Seated UB 6/10 - 20m

5 more days left.

KCM Circuit Burn Cardio/Boxing premix 31m + Cathe Stretch Max #1 - 22m Fun!

6 days left on my calorie restricted OMAD after today. I’ve got a solid plan for moving forward at that point.

Today is a Restorative day for me. I did Slings Myofascial Advanced Basically Core 24m. Myofascial work is my ongoing PT.

Tomorrow begins Week 8.

Cathe Body Blast Push Pull 45m
Boy did I ever enjoy this workout!

I just keep on keeping on, true to plan. This morning my fatty tumor actually looks smaller in addition to feeling softer and smaller.

KCM Meltdown WO2 (Air Jump Rope in place of Bobs) - 28m + Cathe Stretch Max #2 Stability Ball 20m

My back fatty tumor is actually shrinking pretty quickly. It’s still quite visible but instead of being round and firm it’s jellylike.

The Firm Maximum Body Shaping 45m
Fun!

I forgot how fast they set up, move and then strike props. I actually like it. I think Cathe’s older DVDs do the same, though to a lesser degree.

KCM Build & Burn Disc 1 No Strength Premix 22m + Cathe Yoga Relax Premix #2 - 33m

The original Body Pump 45m. This week will be intermediate in nature. Up until now I’ve been losing inches more so than pounds but during this past week pounds have been falling off. Little old scrawny lady is definitely not what I’m going after.

Today was KCM Cardio Quick Fix WO #1: 25m + Pure Strength Triceps + Stretching 13m and it was perfect for my needs!

Tomorrow I transition back to weight training for a week. I’m excited to do so. I still need to figure out my cardio plans for alternate days.

The Bar Method Fat Free 45m + Pure Strength Biceps 11:31m

Tomorrow I begin week 7. The first benign tumor hasn’t returned. The second is about 1/3 smaller so the remaining 2 weeks probably won’t completely clear it.

Restorative: Slings Hands to Heart #1 - 32m This practice felt so good!

You know how your clothes start fitting totally differently - and not in a good way - when menopause hits full force? I can attest to the fact that this is reversible and I’m loving it.
