Bacon. Always bacon. <3

Day/Weight/Comment Goals: one gallon of water per day, increase my step count over previous day, stay under 50g net carbs daily, and to weigh less after 10 days than where I started. 01/13 250.0 Nice round number to start the challenge. 01/14 251.5 damn poptarts. 01/15 01/16 01/17 01/18 01/19 01/20 01/21 01/22

It's water - your body uses fluid to help repair your muscles. It's a good thing, really!!

I'm in, thanks for the invite @aFit50!!

Welcome home!! :D

Thank you @ccrdragon, this makes TOTAL sense to my foggy brain!!

I'm not sure. I know that after each time like this, I wake up super dry, so could be hydration. Oddly, I usually have cramps if I drink too much water.

And I thought woo wss a good thing... ;)

I drink black coffee and water with lemon. I've JUST RECENTLY come to the conclusion that AS do in fact, light up my cravings much the same way sugar does. I'm ditching all AS for the next 14 weeks - I'll let you know my results at the end of that time.

CopyMeThat is an awesome recipe app - I use that, then cut and paste the ingredients into the recipe builder here for use in logging.

Omg, yes!! I thought my butt was the only sad, saggy, double rippled butt out there!!

I spent a night on the bathroom floor after a night of reckless drinking. Felt like an irresponsible teenage drinker. To say yoyr tolerance is lower is QUITE the understatement!

Best: first weigh in (down 11# in 2 weeks) Worst: first time drinking liquor with the intention of getting drunk, 2.5 years keto. Don't try this at home, kids. Wasn't a pretty sight.

I'm in again!! This was THE BEST challenge ever!!! <3 <3 <3

I also wish I would have found some SF popsicles, I don't care if I ever eat jello again.

I had my first last month. I wish I had known about "low residue" eating beforehand, and 2 days of prep would have worked better. Next time...

@RecipeScrapper, you're doing great!!!

12/01: 201.3 (still coming off Tgiving) 12/03: 199.3 12/10: 197.8 12/17: 201.5 chinese buffet last night. Ugh. 12/24: 12/31:

Accountability works, Mimi, WHEN you check in.. oops. I've been working HARD on getting 100oz of water in daily. If coffee counted, I'd be well over without a problem. It's all good. I met with the trainer last night, have my plan, so I will continue that for the rest of the month, as promised. Eating is just okay - the…

Yay! I tend to agree that you we need less fat than when we first started (and I resisted this thinking for a loooooong time). When I started, it was 5/20/75 for the first couple of years. Then I hit super slow down/stall/started rolling backwards. I've tried as much as 85%F and right now I'm at 60%. At 60%, I can finally…

Hanging in there, even managed to get 100oz if water the last 2 days.

Have you recalculated your macros? I always forget that until I start stalling out.

Don't be discouraged. I can tell you from first hand experience, even being post-menopausal hormones STILL fluctuate my weight monthly. How's that for a kick in the pants?!! It never ends!! :s Hang in there... I also usually bump up a bit for a day or two before a whooosh.

I can't even have peanut butter in the house, I will dive head first into a jar without even thinking. It calls to me from the pantry...

WOOOOHOOOOO, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

I'm in for some December accountability! My goals are: ☆get my water in ☆follow whatever exercise plan the trainer and I set up this morning ☆blow the dust off my running shoes and get back at it ☆keep my macros in check and be as far south of 200 as I can be by Christmas Eve. I'd like to start 2018 under 200#. 12/01:…

I survived the Chinese buffet. Had 2 FULL plates of salad, then one plate of steak, pb chicken, mushrooms, and a taste of general tsos chicken. Doused the fortune cookies in siraccha so I wasn't tempted. Win!

I also have a jar of whey in the fridge but no clue what to use it for.

I need to try cottage cheese...
