Week 1 - 226.4 down 2 lbs since this started. Yeay.
This week was tough. I started over. Joined a gym and really made a decision not to stick to the plan.
Week 2 - 226 down 3lbs overall and 0.4 this week. I'm still happy. Sticking to the plan.
Week 3 - 227 It's a marathon not a sprint. I'll do better this week.

After 4 weeks you're supposed to start seeing changes to you body.
After 8 weeks friends should see
After 12 weeks everyone else.

I kinda of feel a little different, but I still just have so much to lose, so not really - although I feel less bloated and my clothes are fitting differently - again! Very happy with my progress so far.

It's helped me cope with this "plateau" as the scales aren't moving but the measuring tape is!

Week 8 reflections - it's taken me months to realise just how much of a long term thing this is. You can't measure in days, and often not even weeks. But looking at a month by month trend I am starting to realise how much hard work and dedication is needed, but the reward is worth it. I need to weigh and log everything. It's that "simple". That's the recipe for success.1 -

Two more weeks left in this challenge. After one month (July) of planned increased carbs (in season fruits) I had not expected to lose any weight. I lost almost 4lbs! No more fruit after today, in order to bring my carb grams back down to keto level and get as close to my goal as I can.0

@tiabirdie56 is it just you and me left? We've both done really well! You are firmly in one-der-land and I am on my way there! I will see the challenge out, I still have another 3 weeks to go.1 -
@eminater, It seems so. We have been the only two consistently posting here the entire month of July! You are doing so well. I'm so happy for you! You are
knocking at ONEderland's door! I have 2 weeks left in this challenge, but since you have 3, I will ride this out with you😁1 -
