    Successes / struggles this week:
    Pretty sure I did not actually gain 3lbs this week. (fingers crossed) It was my birthday over the weekend and I knew going into it that I was going to let myself enjoy the food and drinks. I still kept track of everything and it was way over, but not as bad as it could have been and I'm sure most of that will drop off as water weight from extra sodium.

    Successes / struggles this week: I'm attempting to switch to LCHF and am feeling like I'm making two dinners every night. My partner and child aren't LCHF so finding things to make for everyone to eat has been a bit of a struggle. Anyone have suggestions?
    I've been great at drinking water this week though! It's my go-to while partner is snacking on all the things I'm not eating - sounds a bit depressing, but it's been okay.

    Successes / struggles this week:

    This week was a good week. I stayed within my macros, drank almost all the water I was supposed to be drinking everyday, worked out, and made sure I was getting enough rest.
    I hid my scale in my storage unit and forgot to take it out on Sunday to weigh in, and I also forgot to take it out Monday that's why I'm posting my progress today.
