    Well, I just took a new pic not expecting to see any difference because like we said, you can't always "see" it and it doesn't always show up in clothing fit in obvious ways.
    But I think I see a slight change, again, with NO WEIGHT LOSS!
    A little less back fat maybe?

    I don't know if it's the bras, but your breasts look fuller and not squished.

    1200 cal/ day
    20 g net carbs
    94-110g fat

    Unfortunately I think that is due to the bra...

    I would also say it's because your torso is much more slim, so the curvature from your torso to your breast is much more defined......

    I can tell a huge difference!

    Thanks pals! I was, once again, surprised by the differences. That darn scale can go "kitten" itself!

    You are within the "normal range", maybe your body just needs to adjust to your recent loss.
    How much is a few weeks, 2 or 3, that is nothing in terms of a weight loss Journey. So close to your goal, it will be slow. Have you tried IF, that can sometimes shock your body into reaching for the portable pantry?

    As others have said sometimes the loss shows up in odd places. I personally have walked out of shoes going downstairs and had my wedding ring fall off my finger when raising it to point at something.

    Keep Calm and Keto On, you'll get there.

    You are such an inspiring person. Thanks for this, it shows body recomposition so well, it can happen.
