Thanks guys.. that’s why these challenges are helpful but it gets discouraging when you go in the other direction..

I ate a ton yesterday and I'm up. Solidly down overall, though. My ribs hurt, though, which always happens when I drop some.

I had fallen off plan for months but my boyfriend is doing Keto now for over 2 weeks and I think he looks great and I want to lose about 20-25 lbs but have no clue what I weigh. Going to guess 150 and this challenge might hold me accountable.

Hi Entrophy - welcome! you're supposed to paste from the latest message and key in your figures - I've fixed that for you below. Cheers

I met my latest mini-goal! I'm shocked, because I went out to a really nice restaurant for someone's birthday last night and didn't pay any attention to carbs. I had a cocktail with juice in it, wine and dessert. Then I woke up at 5am and couldn't get back to sleep. Poor sleep often gets in the way of my weight loss. But after all that, I didn't gain and was right at 208 this morning! Next stop: Onederland and 40 lbs.! That's a couple of challenges away, though.

I’m heading off of on a week vacation so I think someone else should start the next challenge and I’ll join up when I return.

Great work, everyone!

After one day on attempted low carb I went from 152 to like 147.6! I also just find out my boyfriend lost 15 pounds on Keto diet in like 18 days or something crazy (and he is injured and can’t work out)
So I think we should keep this challenger going and 5 pounds is less daunting
Good luck everyone
