    1. Stay off sugar
    2. Stay low carb - audios chips/tortillas/potatoes

    1/20 - 146.4
    1/21 - 146.2 - Yesterday was pretty good. Staying right around 1200-1300.

    Road trip this afternoon thru Sunday. I'm going to work to stay off sugar, however I do intend to thoroughly enjoy myself at dinner Fri/Sat. I miss eating out..... Other than those 2 meals, I will work to stay on track.

    04/01: 75.5 - I think the first kg will drop off very fast, as it is the result of sugar, fat and salt overload of the last few days.

    Glad to see you back @cayenne_007 !!

    @weatherking2019 : maybe you should check with your GP to see how you can counter the symptoms?

    I can say that I'm back on track! I've kicked the sugar again (thanks to @l4a_p ) except one little piece of 70% chocolate every evening (hardly sugar in that). To top it off, hubbie decided to do a dry February, but starting now - so 5 full weeks. The only exception will be during our Valentine dinner; normally we never go out eating for Valentine, but as we are being cooped up since almost a year, we will do a special takeaway as we did with Christmas eve, with a bottle of champagne.
    Sugar will definitely be a thing of the past.

    I took a bit of an unplanned maintenance break last week. I had my cycle, missed a couple of workouts and we went to a couple of restaurants that I couldn’t track. It felt so good to dress up and get out of the house!

    I’m looking forward to working hard again this week to see if I can end January solidly in the 125’s.

    26 Jan: 70.6kg.... The woosh isn't happening.

    Instead, I'm treated to the result of 2 days of "excessive" eating, and by excessive I mean: still firmly under the allowed kcal but the wrong kind of calories, and I'm back where I was 2 weeks ago.

    It's depressing 🙁


    I read that you've lost 1,7kg since the start of the month, which is very nice indeed :wink:
    Don't give up, you've told me yourself that weightloss isn't linear, you'll get back there!

    1/26 - 148.2 ARRGH!!! I stayed under 1200 yesterday, but did have a breakfast burrito - Momentary weakness. No nightcap. Thought this morning would be great. How does one gain 2 lbs overnight?

    @l4a_p - There's gonna be a 'whoosh' at some point. We just have to stay consistent.

    1/26 117.6, 22.3%?!

    I should talk to my GP like @antiopelle is suggesting.
    This is just so weird.
    I wake up with my hands all swollen and joints hurting... I’m ttly bloated and uncomfortable. Little constipated which is rare for me.

    I looked up the IUD side effects (Liletta) since that’s the ONLY change I made that I can think of. But nothing says swelling...
    My father is an OBGYN and asked him about this symptoms. He thinks it’s a bookcase premenopausal case.
    He suggested I get some rx. I’ll run that by my GP.
    Meanwhile, I turd in my 2 wk notice last Friday so I have 9 more days of work.
    Can’t wait to be done!!!!!!!!

    @weatherking2019 - I'm so jealous of you getting to turn in your notice! I keep trying to work on our horse biz while dealing with my office job.... ride enough to be competitive on my barrel horse. Battling burnout. Big fat congrats to you!

    @cayenne_007 : try not to go under the infamous 1.200 too often, we need our strength after all.
    @weatherking2019 : also a bit jealous that you gave your notice. I'm counting down the days with you !

    K, this is better.
    I did a bit of reading yesterday. I guess I’m going to go back to super low carb/keto.
    Need to go through my fridge/pantry and plan ahead.
    I can do anything I put my mind to it.
    I know I can.
    I will feel better.

    K, I’m going to keep telling myself this😳😆🙏🏼2hh4x2ke5034.png

    1/28 - 144.2 - I might just celebrate all day (but not with food). Did quite a bit of grocery shopping yesterday, I'm going to a pretty tight keto diet for a while. My body just seems happier on it. We had jalepano poppers last night for dinner, I fully expected to be 147ish this morning. Had to weigh 2x to believe it.

    @weatherking2019 Lots of positive vibes headed your way. She's very fortunate to have you as a mother, there's nothing simple or easy about raising kiddos.
