    Weigh in week: July Week 2
    Weigh in day: Thursday
    Previous Week's weight: 98,8 kg / 217,82 lbs
    Todays Weight: 97,4 kg / 214,73 lbs

    2 weeks into a lower carb eating lifestyle, and thusfar i have no problems with it, can still eat the things i like, just feels like i replaced my dinner carbs for low carbs, and it seems to be working.
    Lost 3,1 kg / 6,8 lbs in 2 weeks now, and feel not bloated anymore, my bowel seems to be working better.
    And this lost of weight is even without me working out currently, so when i start to workout again next week, it might be even more.

    Carb intake is still around 125-150 grams a day, just not 300 a day anymore. Protein intake went up from around 100 to 150 and fat are now around 100-110 gram a day from 60-70

    Thank you for the support. I’m really trying, and I’m just so frustrated with myself.
    Good luck to you, as well. How are things over in Belgium?? The US is basically a dumpster fire.
    Stay safe and healthy!
    Things have been very laid back here since halfway june because pubs/restaurants etc opened again and everyone started going outside again. However it is starting to get tense again and stricter again. But it's for the general good so I dont mind following the new rules. Hopefully things will get better in the US, from what I've heard its a very unpleasant situation out there!

    Sorry I’ve been so MIA. I’m in full binge mode 😭. Just need to get through this weekend and then I’ll be back at it (at a much higher weight).

    Dankjewel! 💞

    @AmyG1982 sorry to hear about that girl. Hope nothing bad happens to trigger a binge mood? Take care of yourself and come back strong!

    @jwall309 I know it can be disappointing but don't let that drag you down. Keep doing your best!

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: Yes, cardio HIIT work out today for 20min

    Very stoked with my weigh-in of this morning. Actually I was so happy I had to report it immediately! I lost about 3lbs since last week. I lost 14 in total as of now, so hopefully we hit the 15kgs loss next week! (Which was my first mini-goal on my long journey!)

    On another note: This week has been mentally challenging (as most of my weeks because of a depression) and I had a lot of heavy mood swings starting from tuesday until today. But I'm hella proud of myself that I had the discipline to work out every single day (monday to friday)!
    Food intake wasn't great to be honest. My partner does a lot of shopping nowadays and sometimes I forget to make a shopping list or he forgets to take the shopping list. That's why he sometimes ends up home with a lot of snacks or food he thinks are healthy (pre-packed salads with a lot of dressing for example) but arent. It's been tough, I need to step up my shopping list game and preparing a menu for everyday to keep myself on track.

    Right now I'm gonna munch some strawberries, enjoy this weekend (I'll be volunteering in a horse stable - my favourite thing to do!- have boardgames with friends, torture my partner because he will join on my sunday workout and also sunday we'll go on a small fishing trip with my father-in-law) and get back on track on monday.

    It's either progress or excuses, you cannot have both!

    @AmyG1982 I completely lost track of myself the past couple weeks. :s Is it still possible to join in on July or do I need to wait until next month? If I need to wait for weighing in, can I jump on board for daily posting? My natropath just switched me from AIP to AIP keto so I'm back to counting macros, and I'll be using MFP daily. When I wasn't having to log everything, it was hard to remember to come in here to weigh myself. But I really like the accountability. This is my first time falling out of the challenge since I started so I'm not sure what the rules are.

    Let me know <3

    This week has been worse then I expected!! I have been trying to rest my feet from being over worked and so I’ve been binging on takeout food. I thought I was eating mostly healthy (except for my one celebration 🍾 dinner I attended for my promotion) I had no idea I was so far off the mark. I’m totally disappointed 😔 at my lack of progress. However, I don’t wanna beat myself up too much. My feet do feel much better and next week I’ll be back on track! It’s soo hard to stay on track when I’m stuck in the house for hours surrounded by yummy food (I forgot that I baked a chocolate cake too!!!) and I have been eating out of sheer boredom. This week I’m going to creat a menu, go shopping 🛒 for my weeks meals and track my food intake.

    I totally understand, thanks for sharing. It does get hard, we all get into binge mode, I was in full mode this week... getting back on track is all that matters 🙂 right!

    Sorry - I'm late- hope it's not too late. Was away at a cottage for most of the week and therefore not good on the scale.

    Glad to have you back! If you want to send me your starting weight and current weight I’ll see about getting you added back in. I’d say since you haven’t missed 2 weigh ins yet it should be ok :)

    The week was good overall. I mostly stayed on track except for dinner last night. I’m happy to maintain. I’ve been around this weight for about 6 weeks now but I am close to goal and also adjusted my target to losing a half pound per week so I could eat a few more calories each day.
