    I am going completely dairy free. I might have some nuts issues as well. I will be checking those out this month. I stalled for a while but made it to 236 which was 4 pounds heavier than my July goal weight of 232-228. Cheers to a new month:

    SW (06/04/2018): 247.8
    CW (08/03/2018): 236.0
    AUGUST GW: 230-226
    DEC GW: 199

    So far it seems like I was completely right about going dairy free. Now I am checking out my nuts and seeds. I made some coconut butter cookies the other day for some fat bombs nutrition: i used a bit of almond flour and coconut butter with eggs , baking powder, vanilla extra. Each time I have eaten that cookie (one a day) , i have had at least a 0.5 gain the next morning. I am tempting to believe that the culprit is with coconut but I will be trying some recipes this weekend with only almond flour and/or almond milk and will keep y all updated.
    Hoping to reach my August goal in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, here are my updated stats:
    SW (06/04/2018): 247.8
    (08/03/2018): 236.0
    CW (08/18/2018): 234.0

    Hello everyone,

    I have been feeling sicked, sore throat and stuff and not eating enough. I started to worry that my milk supply will drop since i have noticed that my breasts have reduced in size a bit. I was able to get some labs tests done and my thyroid levels are lower than ever. Could be the reason why i have been stalling a lot and experiencing all those inflamations. My hormones are out of control and attacking my thyroid. Just waiting on treatment now from endocrinologist. I am still loosing though so that is good. Trying to keep carbs at aroung 50g to maintain milk supply. Not far from reaching my August weight goals although i have stopped taking any coconut and almond foods including mct oil coconut flavor and almonds nuts for now. I might re introduce them later.

    Update stats:
    SW (06/04/2018): 247.8
    (08/03/2018): 236.0
    (08/18/2018): 234.0
    CW (08/25/2018): 233.2

    Will post last weight on last day but so far, lots of ups and downs but I am re learning to keep my carbs down. I have been falling in the trap of too much protein but reworking that as well for next month, also started taking medecines for my severe form of Hashimoto autoimmune disease and hope that will help get my hormones in control.

    Fell off the wagon during labor day weekend and ended August with weight I started with at 236.6 pounds. Off to September.
