1st day...back. Drifted up from 185 to 208 over the last 18 months, so I am at it again, with a new goal of 180 (I am going to be a lean, mean 55 year old machine at 180:-) I have probably 5 lbs more muscle than I did in October 2017, so 180 is going to be a fun challenge. I also have a new pair of 34 waist Levi's that I would love to comfortably wear....so there is that.

Breakfast today - 3 eggs and 5 strips bacon (How can anyone not love low carb breakfasts?)

Planned Lunch today - Pan fried steak and salad

Planned dinner today - Rib eye steak and salad

Snacks - cheese sticks and pork rinds

Goal is to stay below 15 carbs for 2 weeks, and then add in some nuts after that. I do not plan to step on the scale again until May 1 so I can post my weight on the May thread. My thought is that it will take 2-2.5 months to reach my goal...as long as I do not waver and keep carbs below 30. Wish me perseverance and fortitude!
