    I weighed myself this morning and made progress! I will also weigh myself tomorrow, as I am certain today was inaccurate (201.6).

    EGADS!!! Yesterday was a blow out. Between the chips and the spaghetti, I don't even want to know. I was stress eating all day. The good news is that I avoided drinking at night.
    Today I hit the reset button.

    Had a fainting episode last night..not sure why, but have been transitioning to strict keto recently. Maybe even the little alcohol I had was too much during the transition, I don't know. But I did swill down a couple hundred carb calories in the form of soda to stablize myself in the moment. Drat.
    Back to it today.
    Didn't even bother to weigh in this morning. Prolly 5 pounds of water weight from that episode!
    Today will be better. Have a good one, pals.

    Carbs :)
    binging :)
    logging food :)

    So I had a kind of nsv yesterday. My favorite food is pizza. Like it is my main downfall. I went to a women's network meeting last night and they fed the group with pizza. I am proud to say that I ate my low carb food and didn't even think twice about grabbing a slice of pizza. It didn't even look right to me!
    After making a fathead pizza last Friday I know I can do this withoutt the crazy carb overload!

    4 Aug Report
    Carbs: 24g
    Exercise: 15 minutes running (testing new shoes)

    Weighed myself this morning because I thought yesterday was unfair. And it was! 199.8lbs this morning. This pleases me, and feels like a more accurate representation of the progress for the week. This means I've lost 2.6lbs (of mostly water weight) and 100% of that came right off the tummy. *pats flat tummy* Which we will not complain about.

    I think I overdid the nuts last night because I woke up with a pound gain. Also the greens I ate last night may have had sugar and I didn't realize it.
