At my official weigh in yesterday I was down one pound to 213. That was nice. My lowest true reading since starting. Don't know what it will be tomorrow, but I'll take it. Since April 1st I"ve been consistently between 214 & 216 so a dip down 1lbs doesn't give me confidence, but it does give me hope.

I'm not counting anything but I mostly just eat meat, cheese, eggs, mustard, mayo, butter and pork rinds. So... take that as you will.

What I find interesting though is that I did used to eat cheese as a meal at times and suspected it was stalling me. So what was interesting and may be conincidence, was that Tuesday I had NO cheese and Wednesday morning I was down. Wednesday I didn't have cheese either and today I'm the same. So I've decided to alter my own experiment and take the cheese out for the rest of the month.

Otherwise... people are actually noticing weight loss even though I've only lost 10lbs total so far. It's very interesting.

I wouldn't say that I eat a lot of cheese (a slice with this or that), but I do plan to cut back unless whatever I'm eating really needs it (and if I cook it right, it shouldn't).

I do love sauces made with goat cheese, though. Mmm.

finally checking in again. i decided to start zero carb last saturday and i sort of fell down the 'zeroing in on health' page rabbit hole on fb. (:

feeling really good so far. i did have a weird episode with eggs this morning, so those are out for a while. also cut out dairy (except butter) & caffeine. mostly it's beef, bacon and some seafood, plus water right now.

feels so liberating to be free from counting, logging, or even really worrying about food all that much.

sleeping super well, moods are calm and even, clothes continue to fit better and i can almost see my abs! (: still haven't stepped on the scale but i feel strong and not bloated or flabby. my pms was mild this time (unbelievable for me).

gonna keep keeping on!
