    Resubmitting this as found my scales were incorrect :( but also forgot that I had actually already managed to lose 10.5lbs from 2016!! so why not give myself the credit for it! :D

    Original starting weight - 150.5
    January starting weight - 140
    January goal - 135
    Ultimate goal - 125

    UPDATE

    Update 2

    January 6th - 140
    January 13th - 135.8 (-4.2lbs) :)
    January 20th - 136.8 (+1lb)
    January 27th

    feeling frustrated but I had 1 meal out and a takeaway night with my friend on saturday. Back to it today and hopefully everything will come right. I was fairly confident that the first weight loss was mainly water weight so 3.2lbs lost so far is still a good result.

    January Actual End Weight:


    Weight/Comment:

    January 07 - 183.6 It’s getting better and better. Holiday mending going well.
    January 14 - 183.4 slow and steady goes the course.
    January 21 - 185.4 gained even more this week, now it’s coming back down. Added aerobic dance to my exercise routine and it’s beginning to pay off. My macros the last couple of days have been phenomenal. I feel back on track!

    January 20th cannot come faster!

    As I mentioned earlier in the month I'll be getting back on the Ketogenic train again. We're going to try this again--the right way! I'm mentally, physically, spiritually and nutritionally prepared--yes, that's a lot! My lowest weight was 187 last summer and I've been on a somewhat stagnant position for a while. Now, keto train is ready to go! Choo-Choo!!
    I've been eating like a crazy person; kind of like eating my "last meals" "treats"--maybe not for good--just not having the junk for a long time. Almond and Coconut flour are going to be my new best friends! I'm excited! This is the year I am finally going to get the victory!

    P.S. I can tell ya right now my weigh-in won't be great but, that's okay I'm not going to be stuck for long! Let's do this!

    Weigh-in: Jan 20th

    ***Extended Fast Starts Jan 20th through (possibly) Jan 27th. 7 whole day fast. My goal is to reach at least 5 days. My fast comprises of: Detox/Tea tox/, Vitamins, Electrolytes, Bone Broth and the occasional Coconut Oil (1 tbsp).*** Lots of Water!!

    Afterward, I go right into the Ketogenic Diet...Low carb, moderate protein and fat. No Keto rash will stop me this time!!

    Prayer Hands. I'll keep you all posted of my progress...

    Sounds like we are both ready to step it up a notch! We are unstoppable!

    Jenn

    Absolutely, Jenn! This is our year!

    Day 2 of 7 Extended/Nutritional Fast! Goal is to lose 5 to 7 lbs.


    July 2017: 187 (lowest)--Jan 20th 2018: 202.6!! Yikes--a 15 lb-gain over the last six months!

    Not good, but it won't last!

    It's okay I expected this; I let my appetite loose because I knew it was going to be the last time for a very, very long time that I was going to indulge in the wheat/sugar/junk etc...I ate like this since the holidays, so I'm not surprised. No need to feel sorry for me, I earned it. :wink:

    Day 2: After 1 day of my fast I can tell I've already lost some water weight and I don't feel as bloated. And, guess what? I don't feel hungry or fatigue, I feel pretty darn good actually! This Southern Gal is going to ride this wave!
