    Considering my drinking getting out of hand these last few weeks, with all the concerts and such, I'm surprised I'm only up a lb. Going to lunch in a bit with a girl I've had a crush on for 16 years. Oughtta be interesting...
    How exciting! :bigsmile:

    I'm allergic to dairy, so it isn't an option for me. I sorely missed the creaminess but then discovered non-dairy (soy & nut) alternatives: especially almond milk, but also daiya cheese & yogurt, tofutti cream cheese, etc. They have some carbs, which is why I'm not <25; but <50 is easy.

    Was stuck for most of the week at 280. Finally broke that plateau on Saturday and hit 30 total pounds down. I had quite a bit to drink over the last few days, but stuck with 0carb Four Roses Bourbon and a few rum + diet cokes. I don't think my 265 goal is obtainable this month, but thats ok. I've been making great progress and will be thrilled with any type of loss.

    Height: 6'7
    Starting weight: 310 (Middle of July 1st 2018)
    Weight on 7/31: 286lbs
    Goal weight by 8/31: 265lbs

    Sunday 08/05: 282lbs
    Sunday 08/12: 278 lbs

    I'm so very sorry. We had something similar happen with our furbaby a couple of years ago. That last week we spent with him loving him and trying everything we could to help him meant a lot to us. My kitty made me a cat lover & changed me forever. I hope you find some comfort knowing he lived his best life while here with you.

    @Eggfooyamyam I’m on my way home from my 50th HS reunion where I was definitely kicked out of ketosis. When I get back home today, I plan to get right back on the keto road. However, I’m not so good at recovering from the old bad habits I’ve created over the last 68 years. So, I would really appreciate a partner looking over my shoulder to keep me keto clean for a week.

    If you would watch my logging starting Monday until next Sunday I will do the same for you. If I don’t see your food post on my news feed I will bug you and vice-versa. Maybe we can motivate each other to get back on the keto wagon.

    You've got a deal!!!!

    My scale hasn't moved this week, I'll blame it on my birthday cake and the delicious lunch. :) It was a bit difficult to resume today with low carb, but the day has passed and I made it. Thanks for all the support! :)

    Goal weight by 8/31: 157lbs
    End goal weight, by 10/31 144 lbs

    Goals: 28" waist - 154 lbs - 17% bf

    8/1 - 30" - 157 - 18.4%
    8/7 - 29.5" - 155.4 - 17.9%
    8/10 - 29" - 153.4 - 17.2%
    8/14 - 29" - 154.8 - 17.5%

    The weekend was very fluid...not logging, not eating to any limits, and drinking lots of wine...I'm glad to see it didn't set me back too far, I do think the increase in weight is likely due to some water fluctuations since the waist measurement is not increased. I will be more diligent this week, and this weekend is like the only non-beach weekend this month, so it should be nice to stay home and stay on plan.
